38,2,Book of Chance,"I had just finished reading 'The Food of Love' by Anthony Capella since I had nothing to do, but read. Mind you, reading is one of my favorite pastimes.I had recently bought a series of books. The Food of Love was just one of the books I just picked up so I can get that 'three for the price of two' deal at Waterstones in London (British's equivalent of Barnes&Noble;). I wasn't really interested, but it was one of the more interesting options I had. Well, I'm glad I made the right choice! I started reading it last night and I haven't put it down since.If you love food and a little romance, which I am both fond of, it's an excellent book to read. Mr. Capella was remarkably thorough in his description of the rich and textured Italian dishes that the words assails you with a sense of smell and taste that leaves you hungry for more. This book took me by surprise and I'm sure you would not be disappointed."
121,2,Charlie Brown Christmas was a Great Christmas Gift!,I gave this movie to a co-worker who loves all the Charlie Brown classics that are shown on TV. She was thrilled when she opened it!
128,2,The Best Present Of All,"My children are a little old (age-wise) for this, but we all still enjoy watching it around this time of year. This classic will never die out, as it will be enjoyed for many generations to come.Having always been a huge fan of Charlie Brown to begin with, this is, by far, my favorite Christmas special. I can remember seeing it for the first time like it was yesterday. Charles Shulzz did one amazing job with this classic. This short animated special shows children the true meaning of Christmas, and Linus' delightful explanation is timeless in its teaching.This classic is something that can be enjoyed by people of all ages, but especially by families with small children. This is just one great video that would make an excellent addition to anyone's collection."
136,2,Excellent Item!,"I miss the lighted ring telling you that the charger is charging, but for 1/2 of the price of Apple's replacement, I can do without it!The LED iS BRIGHT, and cool bluish color. The cable that breaks on Apple's charger is noticeably thicker on this charger.Get this. You'll not regret it."
140,2,Good product at reasonable price,"Though the output of this power supply is lower than the Apple supply, it seems to work fine--and it is very reasonably priced. Too bad that Amazon stopped carrying the supply."
241,2,a worthy addition to WW II Eastern Front histories,"I've read a tremendous amount on the subject of WW II history, so very rarely do I read a book with anything new to tell me. This book is in that class and well-written too. The two points I found interesting were the discussion of the original focus of Hitler's 1942 campaign in Russia and the first extensive history I've read about the airlift effort to save Paulus' 6th Army trapped at Stalingrad. He offers original research into 1) the question of just who promised Hitler that the Luftwaffe could sustain 6th Army by airlift, and 2)just how successful the Soviets were in interfering with the airlift. For anyone interested in the history of WW II on the Eastern Front, this book is a must read."
246,2,Excellent.....REALLY,"Once I recovered from the eye strain at the tiny print, I realized I'd just read an earth shattering book on Wicca and Witchcraft. Taken in hand, with all the books with bad history, this book fixes them all. Just rip out the history section in every book you have and glue this book in its place.It is unapologetically Modernistic, with the sources to back it up.EXCELLENT, really, EXCELLENT."
282,2,Paradise kiss rocks!!!!,"OMG!! thats all i can say.its just sooo fabulous!!! when i first heard about it i was contridicting weather or not i should read it but then i decided ,""hey why not?"" now that i read this fab manga,theres no turning back!!!this is totally a keeper! i strongly recomend!!!!"
536,2,"Forget Belkin, look no further than the GUF320","This thing was easy to intall. I have a Dual 1.25 G4 Mac. No driver installations under Panther 10.3.3. If you're pre 10.2.X on a Mac you'll have to visit Iogear's website for USB 2.0 drivers. You shouldn't have any problems using this card with a G5 given the bus supports PCI cards either. Apple should just sell this card in their stores. This is my first Iogear product, and this is the best combo firewire/usb PCI card currently on the market."
561,2,Nice Device,"This is a nice MP3. I got it on Black Friday on Amazon for only $99.99 , yes Sansa View 8 GB MP3 280. While everyone else was looking at the lighting rounds on Black Friday they didn't see the tiny small icons around the today's deal page. If you use a computer you should be able to tranfer sound & images files without using a program. It's basic computer 101. I use Sony's SonicStage myself. Records at 192 for crisp sound."
580,2,"Fast delivery, great product","Super fast delivery. The last ear loop on my Jawbone had worn out. The large ear gel fit over the Jawbone earbud and, with a little superglue, stays there. It fits in my ear without using any loops. After a full day, the ear is a little tender, but it is getting better the more I use it. I would highly recommend the ear gels for anyone with a Jawbone. Improves sound and the fit of the sensor with the jaw."
586,2,JEG,The product arrived as expected. The ear gels fit the JawBone well and were perfect for ill perfect ears.
640,2,Mr. Dickens slams industrial horror scenes.,"Charles Dickens, as is his custom, slams into so-called civilized 19th century British industrial scenes in a smoky place called Coketown. He writes with a sharp knife about poverty, hunger, cruel management and lack of compassion. Humor here is on the grim side."
667,2,Great Information,My husband and I got more out of this than the free classes the hospital nurses give. We've been able to watch it over for things we missed. There is tons of useful information...too much to take in at once. I love having it becasue if I forget something I just re-watch that section. Its helped us become familar with the terms the nurses use and we have great information for question asking when we go to our Dr. Apts.
683,2,Daniel Auteuil is fabulous,I've been a fan of Daniel Auteuil for some time and look forward to each new movie. This one is very funny and entertaining.
691,2,One of the best foreign language films,"For once, a film coming from a north european country that is neither unhealthy nor perverse.Suzanne Bier is a wonderful director as she proved in two of my favorite films ""Things we lost in the fire"" and ""Brothers""."
708,2,fly boys,"i haven't watched this movie. it was purchased for a christmas present. i heard about this movie on american family radio and they gave it wonderfuly reviews. my brother is ex-military and loves these types of movie. since afr gave them a wonderful review, i thought this would be something that he would enjoy."
720,2,WELL DONE RAY J.,"This is a good come-back from the 'This Aint A Game' album, that album was good wit songs like 'wait a minute', 'where do we go from here', 'wet me' and 'formal invite',etc. However, this album is even better. You can tell that he has grown up on this album. I think he is making a name for himself in the music business, and wont just be known as Brandy's kid brother. My fav tracks on this album are: 'Exotic' - love this song 2 bits cant get enough of it. 'In tha Mood', 'Anytime', 'One Wish', 'What I Need' and the crunk track 'Keep Sweatin'. However, there are a few dodgy tracks on there like 'Quit Actin' - i was excited when i saw R. Kelly was on there bt was sadly disappointed when i heard it. 'The War Is Over' - i liked the last duet they did 'another day in paradise' bt after hearing this song they should have stopped then. However, overall its a good album ... WELL DONE RAY J."
763,2,When Already?,"Like others here, I'm wondering if the final seasons of one of the most durable, laugh-out-loud sit-coms of all timewill ever be released. I bought Season 1 for a song when Borders went out of business,expecting a series I loved at the time to have dated badly. It hadn't.A great cast, with fine, funny writers and performed (I believe) before a live audienceI quickly caught up and, like the rest of you, have a feeling that I've pre-ordereda box-set that, inexplicably, will never be released. When already? Ever?"
795,2,It'll never go out of date,"I was at the Foreign Language Bookstore on Yanan Road here in Hangzhou when I saw this classic on the shelf. Would you believe I'd never read it? We read some Bradbury in school about 25 or 30 years ago, and he didn't make much of an impression on me. I can't remember why. But knowing the fault could've been mine, I gave him another shot. Books are cheap here, and hey, it's famous, right?Well, folks, it's famous for a damn good reason. Many, in fact. Fifty years old, and it is perhaps more relevant than ever. But so what? Is it good writing? Does it entertain? Does it have real characters? Is it more than just an oh-so-correct theme dressed up as a novel? Oh, yes it is! It's absolutely fantastic and I just plain can't recommend it enough.If you love sci-fi, great. If not, it doesn't matter. I can say ""transcends the genre"" with a straight face. Yes I can. I'll be reading this one again, folks. I didn't write it and I'm just sick with jealousy about it, okay?"
869,2,Jusbeautiful,"At first I didn't really care for this album, but after a couple of listens, I love it. Neo-soul is here to stay and Musiq is the greatest. My favorite tracks are Womanopoly, Babymother, Who Knows, and so on. This cd is hot and I can't wait for the next one."
871,2,Run Lola Run,"This is without a doubt one of the all time best films I have ever seen. If you are thinking about buying it just do so, you will not be disapointed."
909,2,helped a bit,"studied the asvab few days before taking the test. this book helped me get an idea of the difficulty and what to expect in the test. the practice tests on this book is actually harder than the actual asvab, so it helped me to study harder versions. passed with a score of 94."
933,2,Pratchett I just love him,"the whole city watch series is just about my favorite bunch of books I have ever read. I almost have to read them alonme because I get the whole family looking askingly when I laugh out loud. Great stories, obviousl;y fantasy but so real. And if you love word play you will never find better"
1025,2,Excelente,"Tego es la fuerza en la musica latina. Es una tremenda mezcla de son, salsa, reggaeton y hip-hop. Que estupendo!!!!!!!"
1083,2,"Presto, chango, Magic is fun...WE'RE DEAD!","I saw this when I was 12 years old and it freaked the shiznit out of me - low on gore, high on psychological thrils, MAGIC is an old-school horror flick of the classic kind - anchored by Anthony Hopkin's early bravura dual performance as Corky/Fats - but what I remember most about MAGIC isn't the movie, but the scary as hell TV spots that used to run back in the 70s on late-night TV - the bonus materials explain that after the simple, yet very creepy TV ads ran ONCE on TV in New York, they were pulled due to parental complaints about frightening their little tots - they're weren't far of the mark - as the camera pulls in and ""Fats"" intones his evil poem - ""Magic is fun...we're...DEAD!"" - you'll feel your blood turn to ice. A nice DVD to complete your horror collection - [...]"
1098,2,Love old recipes,"thanks for compiling these recipes. They were fun to read, and although I am certain that I am not going to make any of them, it was fun reading them."
1132,2,mesmerizing marlene,"If anyone else but Marlene Dietrich had played the lead in this film, the film would have been awful! Dietrich triumphs in a role no-one would have predicted. mysterious, mesmerizing, seductive, funny, and finally moving as the loyal gypsy(!) Lyddia, Dietrich makes you overlook the films flaws. At times the film drags by, some supporting players seem to have cotton in their mouths as they speak, and some of the dialogue is inane. Through it all, Dietrich is the soul of this movie, holding it all together in spite of the flaws, to make the whole thing work. Worth watching as a romantic piece of Hollywood escapism, and for seeing Dietrich as the fine actress she is."
1144,2,good diaper,"These are good diapers that don't leak, even with overnight soakings. They don't hold up to blowouts as well as huggies little movers, however."
1145,2,Great diapers,"Pampers and Huggies are, in our opinion, the best diaper brands out there. We have a slightly preference for Pampers because they look less ""bulky"" on the baby, compared to Huggies or store brands. And it is the best deal I have for diapers, considering the 15% discount from Amazon ""Subscribe & Save"" program. However, I've noticed that the diaper is no longer available as a ""Subscribe & Save"" item, so I am not sure whether I would buy it for the full price - I would have to compared unit costs using my spreadsheet to see if it is worth it."
1163,2,The softest diapers out there with the best fit ever!,These diapers are the best. I cannot say enough about them. In my opinion they are much better than Huggies and fit true to size. I feel that Huggies run really small. They are also so soft I feel confident using them on my babies sensitive skin. I will use these again with my next baby.
1248,2,Great 80's Concept Album !,"It's moody, a little dark, like for driving down the highway at night . . . But that's why I loved it in the 1980's ! I just was never able to find the CD ! To me, it is the most well-done, well-produced album by Tommy Shaw, as I have heard most of his others to date . . . Still, yes, it has a certain heavy keyboard-80's sound, but it is more 'serious' than his other efforts in my humble opinion . . .So, dark, but GREAT guitar, it should have really been the concept for another Styx album, instead of the more light-wieght stuff they all have done . . ."
1341,2,Mystery for history buffs (or a history for mystery buffs),"Josephine Tey takes us through a wonderful unraveling of centuries old history. Was Richard III the evil murderer of the princes -- or not?I think this book one of the most fascinating mixes of history and mystery (two of my favorite areas) and reread it regularly. So when my book club asked me to recommend a mystery, this was an easy choice (backed up by it's ranking as one of Amazon's best mysteries of the Century). Well, they hated it. Why bother solving a centuries old mystery? So I offer this experience to say that this is a terrific book if you like mysteries or English history. Others may not care for it."
1355,2,Five stars aint nothin'. I'd Give it 10000 If I could,"My Grandmother bought this for me when I was 2 years old. I've loved since then. I havent watched it in a while so I decided to watch it one day when nothing was interesting on T.V. This movie bought back so many memories of when me, my cousins (who I havent spoken to since i was 8) and friends were little. I knew every song and every line. Get this movie. It's a classic and a good movie for adults as well as kids. You wont regret buying this."
1358,2,A misunderstood and fun film.,"Not much I can say except that this movie is often riffed on for all the wrong reasons.Yes, the movie is indeed flawed in many respects. But at the same time, it has a lot of great set pieces, music, good dialogue, good CG and animatronics, and a a scene using Joe Satroni music.It's just a fun movie, worth riffing on if you hate it, but a fun movie if you appreciate it for exactly what it is supposed to be, a fun ride."
1379,2,In the Heart of the Sea: The Tragedy of the Whaleship Essex.,The condition is somewhat less than perfect -- but not much.The book is wonderful. Fascinating story and Very well researched and written.
1406,2,Tivo Wirelss G,"Ordered on same day as Tivo but came 8 - 10 days later. Caused a delay in hooking up. It would helpful to ensure shipping at the same time, especially when one unit is dependant on the other. Unit dropped off line after the first installation and had to be rebooted. Seems to be OK now.This is my first Tivo and adapter so I have nothing to compare this product with."
1410,2,"I like Hardy, but I loved the Mayor","I like this story the most of Hardy's works. An interesting tale with some good, realistic characters. I think I'll read it again."
1451,2,OF Mice and Men,"A classic, as always. In the today world of teaching tolerance and differences, this remains a good one to use in the classroom."
1502,2,Measure Of A Man CD Is The Best,"Don't listen to that negative, uncalled-for review by F.Faulkner ""F.F."" He doesn't know what he is talking about. He just came to stir up trouble because he is jealous, rude, and ignorant. Let me clean up this board. Clay Aiken's voice is outstanding and is like no other. ""Measure Of A Man"" CD is exciting and is the best debut CD by a male musical artist in the past 3 years. Clay Aiken is ""America's Idol"" because of his irresistable voice and character and his many, many fans. Please buy this CD. You will not be disappointed at all. The songs are very good."
1516,2,Fresh Sound,"Clay has made many of us get back into the album buying mode! I think this new release is great in every aspect. I too would like to see Neil Sedaka produce him! That aside, the critics who tell us we can't like him are pushing us right into his ""arms""."
1557,2,The Best CD I Have Ever Heard,This CD sent chills down my spine. Clay Aiken is a very gifted vocalist.
1568,2,Better than I thought,"I would consider myself a ""radio"" Damn Yankees fan, having only heard their radio hits like, ""Don't Tread on Me,"" and, ""High Enough."" After hearing this Essentials CD though, I see that there's more than meet's the ear. The only song on here that I can't seem to get into is, ""Come Again,"" but all the others are real rockers for me. From the milder, ""Silent is Broken,"" to the fast and heavy, ""Piledriver,"" this CD never stops! The guitars, vocals, bass, and drums, all rock. I tend to give conservative ratings, so that's why I gave this a 4 out of 5 stars, but otherwise, I would highly recommend it for any other ""radio"" fans like myself."
1607,2,Narnia: Prince Caspian,"It was a great choice between BD and DVD, of course I bought the BD. As you all know the quality is far more better than regular DVD. The movie had a pretty good opening to and it was very catchy. Story has a pretty good plot to it but it wasn't as good as the first movie. there were more action on the first movie compared to this. All in all it was a great and fun movie to watch."
1618,2,inspiring,"a movie needs to be done about this guy. dont listen to al sharpton- if booker t can do what he did, anyone can. i'd give it 5 stars but for the style of writing at the time leaves me wanting coffee"
1660,2,Summer of my german solider review,I enjoyed this book a great deal. The story was very interesting and kept the reader guessing. I thought that many issues in the book were easy for students to relate to even today. The author didn't pull any punches in this startling work. I enjoyed this book and recommend it for students in sixth grade and up.
1759,2,Another great Feinstein golf book,"Feinstein takes a different tack in The Open versus his previous golf books, A Good Walk Spoiled and The Majors. Instead of stories about the players on the tour, this story focuses on the people behind the transformation of the worn-out municipal golf course Bethpage Black into the great course that hosted the 2002 U.S. Open championship. I found I couldn't stop reading, as Feinstein's prose is once again funny, heartwarming, and flowing. My only critique is that I wished for more detail on Rees Jones' changes to A.G. Tillinghast's design, with illustrations. For a book about the transformation of the golf course, there isn't enough about the physical changes that were done. The book does a great job portraying the enormity of the project that was undertaken, so the satisfaction that is felt with the success of the championship seems to be well deserved."
1773,2,Really fun stuff,"It is hard to believe that this is no longer available new on Amazon. I think this is a great CD with jazz and bluegrass all mixed together. If you want to call it progressive, that works too. Anyway, it is great music. Buy it!!"
1779,2,Raining Stones at a Start of it all,"Remember "" Don`t play your Rock`n Roll to me "" from Smokie? No? The Gallaghers gave a f... on that. They did what they can give but this one was not to the hand of God... The Following Album after this was going on Jesus Christ Ways; only 4 Albums on the World have the right beeing 6 points on Amazon. Defintiley Maybe this is not 6 points but a full 5.00000 ...."
1784,2,"Good, but some songs were alittle to hip-hop for me.",I liked Soulbait alittle better than this. But Blaze is still good. I like the futuristic effects on the songs and how they designed the album cover.
1786,2,Terrific Reference,"As a banker, one never wants to have to be in the position of collecting bad debts. Mr. Lewis has done a great job describing the process -- a terrific reference for anyone who needs an experienced perspective on the process!"
1792,2,A very good book.,"Normally I am the kind of person who goes for books with adventure and fantasy in them. But hey, I tried this one out and loved it. It's not as fast paced as some of the books I've read, but that suprisingly didn't matter. I suggest anyone read it."
1804,2,Good Buy,"This book gives some good advice on the essay, but an awful lot of the book is not related how to put together your best essay. I bought this after the book ""A is For Admission"" recommended it. I had much higher expectations for it because of that."
1820,2,Top one!! Mad for it,Why do Yankees always put Oasis down eh? They are the Greatest band ever. I live in the same City as they did and I'm listening to their music 24/7 People just get jealous of their success. If anyone agrees or disagrees e-mail me instantly!!!!
1847,2,The passion for life is ageless,"Zorba the greek is a novel that has inspired me since I was a child. Alexis is a man that has this atomic reactor in his body that he cannot control. The coal mine owner, his boss, starts to realize little by little what Zorba is all about. Despite that his worker is not educated he learns a lot about life from him. This kind of novel is the one you do not forget and in my case is present for many situations. Zorba is never let down by failure or tragedy, take your shoes off and dance to the rhytm of life !!"
1918,2,A compelling Biblical story,This Biblical fiction is a great introduction to the story of King Hezekiah. The characters have depth and I am eager to read the next book in the series.
1937,2,Superb seller and wonderful product,"Date: 11/28/2008 (I bought this for Christmas 2008)My brother-in-law had wanted a Clint Eastwood Poncho for a long time but the ones I saw were pretty expensive. Then I saw this one on Amazon. Not only was the price right, but the look and quality are great! The seller notified me immediately that the item was on backorder, but it ended up arriving sooner than expected. Superb seller and wonderful product!"
1954,2,Ahhhhhhhh!,"This back brush is what I have been looking for for a long time. others I have tried were too soft or were of sponge material that deteriorated quickly or fell off the handle. This one is a good, stiff, scrubbing brush that can get to all those places on my back that I cannot reach.I recommend this to anyone who wants to feel clean and scrubbed."
2029,2,shock to the system,"Upon hearing the song Toxicity on MTV I had absolutely no hesitation in buying this album knowing that it would contain at least one gem. What I didn't expect was such consistency.Initially tracks like X and Forest do not stand out as much as MTV hits Chop Suey! and Toxicity, however on further listens you will discover that it is the lesser known tracks that hold your interest and ensure this album stays in your cd player for a while. I now hope to see these guys live at some stage to see if the energy displayed on this album translates as well in live performance."
2053,2,Good Movie!,"this is a decent movie to get a good fright to lol just as good as when i saw it in theaters. i have the dvd and blu-ray now, time to ditch the dvd lol 4 Stars!"
2117,2,touching,"A Tree Grows in Brooklyn , is a very touching novel. It takes place in the 1920's and tells what life is like growing up back then , with all of the obstacles that come along the way. Francis is the main character of the book who grows up along with the trees in Brooklyn.She grows up in a poor family and struggles to fit in and find friends however, that does not bring her down. Francis is still a very happy and cheerful person regardless of what other people may try to tell her. She loves to read and since she doesn't have many friends, she feels and makes her books her friends. When Betty Smith wrote this book, she looked back on her life and the experiences she had, and put some of them in her book. It is written not only for teenagers or adults, but anyone who wants to read about the thrill of growing up. If you miss A Tree Grows In Brooklyn you are missing a truly great novel."
2184,2,it DEFINATELY grows on you,"at first listen, i was only impressed by cosmopolitan blood loss. but after listening to the whole cd a few times in my friends car i realized that this album had a lot more depth than i gave it credit for. in my opinion some of the stand out songs on this record are ape dos mil and cosmo blood loss. but each song has something to offer. you're not just going to get an annoying flow of screams throughout each song. there's a nice variance between the deep screaming and the switch to passionate singing which makes each song stand out. i would definately grab this album if you're fans of finch and the used. its worth your time."
2196,2,love it... she's wonderful...,"Ít's one of the best books I've ever read. Was forced to read it for school so my expektations were the lowest ever... She's a very strong women and I like the way she gets what she wants. She's not afraid to make a sacrifice or two to have things her way, though I don't like the way she abandonnes her children all the time..."
2200,2,Buy this book...if you love nature.,"Mr. Abbey has filled this book with many thoughtful observations of the desert, and life in general. This book should be mandatory reading for any present day backpacker or outdoorsman."
2212,2,The most beautifuly written & illustrated book on Unicorns,This is with out a doubt the most beatifuly written & illustrated book on Unicorns ever published. Every page is a visual & mystical treasure.I reccomend it to any & all seekers of light on the subject of Unicorns.
2216,2,An Easy Read; It's implementing the guidelines that's tough,"Clear, simple, easy-to-read style. Many of the steps are obvious in retrospect. The book merely raises your awareness of the steps so you're more likely to use them"
2266,2,milton is the MAN,aaahhhh this movie sticks with you and is total classic comedy. from basic humor of just wierd names to the eternal red stapler this is an amazingly hilarious movie. i have never even been inside a cubicle (thank god) and i think this movie may have influenced that. milton certainly steals the show and then i see the same actor on a csi episode and realize he can talk normally and HAS NO RED STAPLER??? *GASP* but anyway...anyone can enjoy this movie whether they are a cubie with a tyrant boss or standing in the unemployment line. this is a new CLASSIC in my book.
2273,2,Life imitates Dilbert,"If you've ever worked in a cubicle farm, spoken ""corporatese,"" or dealt with downsizing, you'll find Office Space to be hilariously relevant. Created by Mike Judge of Beavis and Butthead fame, this movie could easily pass for a live-action version of the Dilbert cartoon. It pokes fun at everything from commuting to office birthday parties to ""fast casual"" chain restaurants. Watching Office Space, you will vicariously get the satisfaction of ""sticking it to the man."" Ron Livingston plays the lead role well, but the funniest characters are the supporting cast - Milton, Lundbergh, Drew, et. al. I'm going to need you to go ahead an watch Office Space...yeah...that would be great..."
2290,2,Great Movie!!!,"A very compelling story about a boy and his colt, awesome heartwelming family adventure horse lovers will most entirely love!!!"
2447,2,Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim,"Hearfelt essays on David Sedaris' life growing up gay in middle America. Always full of astute observations of American life, you will laugh out loud many times while reading this collection of essays."
2565,2,Awesome series.,"The autumn series its just amazing,I first bought them in ebooks but it was so good thAt I had to buy the complete series in paperback.It's amazing how after so many books the author keeps you in suspense and doesn't get boring,this Moody guy it's really gifted."
2647,2,My recommended buy,"Had bought a set of the Anolon Advanced Hard Anodized Nonstick cookware, but it did not include a 2 qt. covered Saucepan.This size is something I use a lot. I love the lighter weight than the 14 yr. old set we had. The rubberized handle and lid are great.I love the glass lid and the nonstick finish is great! Clean-up is very easy. I don't use high heat as directed, but do boil in the saucepanwithout any damage being noted. I highly recommend this size pan and the whole set. It is less expensive than some of the more popularbrands, but I like the look and function better. I am a very satisfied customer."
2808,2,What's the fuss about Jane Austen?,"I'm so sorry, but I simply fail to see what's so wonderful about Jane Austen. Her writing is adroit, and paints an intriguing picture of her times. She illustrates the psychology of a historic culture, but....I just don't find her all that wonderful. I realize I'll be stoned by all the Jane Austen fans out there, but THERE IT IS."
2828,2,Great book,Very enjoyable you can never stop because this book is filled with suspends and cold hangers this was a great book
2915,2,"Great Movie, But...","The storyline was superb. Rupert was great. But Madonna...what were you thinking??? Her accent annoyed me throughout the whole movie. Is she American??? Is she English??? The cross between sounds Australian which is irritating. Apart from Madonna's terrible acting, this movie is held together pretty well."
2934,2,Good short history,"Publisher: Wilson's Creek National Battlefield Foundation; 4th Edition (1992)Language: EnglishASIN: 1-881366-01-4170 pages, maps, pictures, indexI found this book in the bookstore at Wilson's Creek and bought it immeadlty. Ed Bearss' narration captures the immediacy of the situation, placing you on the line. This small book will not disappoint the reader there and will convey solid information about the battle. The balance between detail and narration is maintained throughout the book. Neither takes over and we end with a short but very solid history."
2964,2,"great buy, great hair and skin!","I bought this for myself, and upon using it just once the difference in my skin and hair was obvious. No itching or dryness! I promptly bought another for my mother- she is in her 80s and has said this has helped her skin and hair so much. We gave them as gifts to many people in 08, and every one of them has gone on to buy one to give as a gift to someone they love too. Honestly; easy to install, easy to use, instant results- great value for money!"
2985,2,Sweet romantic comedy...,"Ben Stiller and Edward Norton play best friends Jake and Brian, a rabbi and a priest who are both strong leaders in their congregations. When their friend Anna visits them, both friends fall for her and find themselves questioning their faiths.This is a sweet and often funny movie that is well written and acted by the cast. Religion can be a tough subject to base a comedy around, but Keeping the Faith does pretty well. The plot itself seems to unwind a bit near the end, but Ben Stiller and Edward Norton keep it afloat pretty well.This is a pretty good movie, so I recommend it for a Saturday afternoon."
3020,2,exquisite,how many of us read NIGHT FLIGHT in high school as quickly as possible? my grown experience of Saint-Exupery is the opposite. i linger over every page. Saint-Exupery provides a literary meal to be savored page by page. call me an escapist but the skies over Buenos Aires never looked so good.
3026,2,This book is thorough but poorly written.,"It is ironic that an account of the Steely Dan phenomenon is documented by someone whose writing skills are negligable. Becker and Fagen, two contemporary literary masters by most standards, would find it strangely fitting, I suppose. Sweet's saving grace is his penchant for detail. His tome has the stories for which every avid Dan fan hungers. Recording sessions, writing sessions, band reformulations, personal melodramas, etc. These elements make it enjoyable reading, especially when accompanied by revisitations to the legendary recordings. Listening to the CD's while making one's chronological journey through this book, is distictly thrilling, as well as eye(ear)-opening. The lack of an index and of footnotes limits this volume's usefulness as a reference source however. It would be nice to see a similar effort made by a writer who posesses a similar creative energy, quirkiness and skill to that of Becker and Fagen themselves."
3066,2,BD-live features mostly worthless,"I explored the BD-live feature for the first time last night, and most of the functions require registration on Disney's site. On Disney's site an FAQ asserts that those features are being discontinued, and account creation is no longer possible. WTH? This disc was only released 8 months ago, and the much-heralded BD-Live features that personalize your disc and experience are already outdated.For what it's worth, I just bought UP (released last week), and the BD-Live features from Disney appear to be nothing but downloading trailers for other films ... four of them. My verdict on Disney BD-Live => total waste of time."
3100,2,"Do Not own yet, but will in near future...",I am waiting for my full body hazmat protection suit to come in the mail. Afterwards I will order this unit. Great price!
3109,2,Wow!,"We had heard about this item (and the many similar items) and decideded that we'd give it a try. Wow! We had no idea how fantastic it would be...or would continue to be...and continue to be...The design is great. The controls work. It's a fantastic piece of equipment. The only complaint is that it's not silent, but we don't think that would matter under the circumstances - we weren't either."
3149,2,THE BEST CRIME MOVIE EVER MADE!,"French Connection is a exciting action/crime film starring Gene Hackman as Popeye Dole, a N.Y. Narcotics Cop who is investigating the recent flow of herion coming into N.Y. He and his partner (Roy Shrieder) get into the absorbing process of phone tapping, following suspects, and stakeouts. A real good crime movie from director William Friedkin. One of the best films ever made, also has the most exciting chase scene in history. A winner!!"
3160,2,Hilarious,"This movie was even funnier than the first. I love how they brought back characters from the first movie and continued storylines. Definitely recommended, but you need to make sure you see the first movie before this one. :)I'd stop after this one though, Tremors 3 was pretty bad."
3184,2,No doubt about it!,"One look at all these reviews will leave you with no doubt that this is one of the best science fiction stories ever told. But wait! The best is yet to come. There are five other books in the series. My advice, however, is to skip Dune Messiah and go right to Children of Dune. The second book isn't nearly as good as the first; the third is even better. Herbert's writing improved with age, and God Emperor of Dune, Heretics of Dune, and Chapterhouse: Dune will blow you away even if you just sort-of like the original Dune."
3266,2,Much Respect,"If you thought Bleed's debut was hot, your gonna get roasted to this. ""My Own"" has a different sound than his first record, but that's what makes it great. He uses lots of samples from the 70's giving it southernplayalistic style that's unmatched. The message conveyed through his lyrics is more than just a mission about money and cheese and thuggin'. Ghetto celebrities Too Short and Daz found their way onto this record, but they are an afterthought. The narcotic effect of Bleed's southern drawl and story telling ability that spawned his first record just accelerates on My Own. Get this if you want to ""listen"" to a message, not just ""hear"" words."
3273,2,so scary,im young and this movies scared me for years i never have gone or looked at any supodley abandod houses very creepy a true horror film.
3282,2,Great!,"When I was a little kid. I would try to watch these movies but they really freaked me out. Now that im 15 I had to give this one a try. Freddy's Dead was on television and once I saw one part with Freddy and Carlos(Carlo's ear) it freaked me out, but now I watched the whole movie of this and I have to buy the 8 disc box collection. I just special ordered it. This movie was really good. I can't wait to see all the other movies even that one part in Nightmare 6 with Carlos. Maybe this time I don't think it would be as bad, but I think everyone should give this movie a try. Wes Craven is very creative. I've seen his other work like Wishmaster 1-4 and he's done pretty good job. Check this one out!"
3290,2,"If this CD doesn't perk you up, you're dead","A fun CD from beginning to end. Starts out with the radio hit ""Zoot Suit Riot"", a very catchy tune with plenty of brasswork that doesn't sound too serious or too contrived. The lyrics reflect the swing-era roots but contain modern phrases and topics (some a little risque). Very tight execution of the genre, every song has a little hook or element that is straight from the swing era. The lyrics are clever and descriptive with a lot of detail. A good CD for either serious headphone listening or to just put on in the background."
3296,2,THE best album of 1998. Period.,"The CPD's are by far the best band alive in America today. ""Zoot Suit"" is the best CD of the year. On stage, I have never seen a band more charged and on fire than the CPD's. All other swing is boring lounge music compared to Zoot Suit. Steve Perry is one of the top three lyric writers on my personal list, making their music all the more enjoyable. The lyrics are complex, intelligent, morally pointed, and clever. The music is rich, catchy, diverse, and incorporates more instruments than other swing bands. The CPD's are definitely not smooth and syrupy like other bland bands. They have the same demented, spastic gusto they started out with years ago, and are only going to get hotter. All other bands, including the ""masters"" of days-gone-by swing (with all due respect, of course), are left foundering in the wake of the CPD's."
3322,2,Great version of J.R.R. Tolkein's The Hobbit.,"Bilbo Baggins ( voiced by "" Orson Bean"") is a Hobbit that goes on a simple quest with Gandolf ( John Huston) and a bunch of Dwarfs that must find Gold from the evil Dragon "" Smaug"". A highly entertaining and all-around fun yet excellent Rankin-Bassfilm which is one of the best they did with "" Return of the King"", "" The Last Unicorn"", and "" Flight of Dragons"".Also recommend: Lord of the Rings ( 1978), Return of the King,and Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Rings."
3372,2,Gripping account of long-lasting effects of killing spree.,"Author Greg Kelly was 10 years old growing up in Rockford, Ill., when Ray Lee Stewart went on a weeklong killing spree that took 6 lives and shook the community's small-town midwestern roots. Like so many others in Rockford, Greg was terrified until long after Stewart's capture and haunted by his crimes for years afterwards. Fifteen years later as a young newsman working at WGN Television in Chicago, Greg called in sick so he could attend the murderer's clemency hearing. A few weeks later he witnessed the execution. Kelly's vivid description of that eerie evening is alone worth the price of the book, as are the insights into courtroom proceedings, TV reporting, and Kelly's portraits of victims' families and their suffering."
3373,2,The kids loved it!,"Stuart Little is one of those nice films that you can drag out on a rainy winters' day, and the kids will watch it despite having seen it lots of times before. The blu-ray quality is very good, and there is nothing in this film which will disturb young children - mine are 5 and 8 and they both enjoy it. Recommended!"
3418,2,My nephew loved this!,I gave it all 5 stars just because my nephew loved it so much. He is very hard to please at 9 yrs old and this was something he really enjoyed. He likes hands on things and race cars so there you go.
3482,2,"Yes another live album, but this is diferent.....","There are interesting facts about the released of stripped:- Basically it is an ""unpugged album"" from the Stones.- It was the very first interactive cd.When I first bought this cd, it was the very first interactive multimedia record ever done (booklet came with instructions, intercative material, etc...also appears the very first Rolling stones site, by 1994 whe the internet was so new, the site shows only merchandise in just a few pages, all those years ago), it is very interesting looking and hearing ""hidden tracks"".Also, during the Voodoo Lounge tour, the Stones perform some ""surprise gigs"" in some cities.In the time of the Unplugged records, this is a testimony of great tracks recorded in a different way we used to hear the Stones.It is a great album, quite diferent, and of course ""Like a Rolling Stones"", a classic made a classic."
3526,2,Computer gamer,"This is a good quality game and it's played a lot in our household. We play one-person ""Mahjong"" very often here (maybe too often?) and everyone from the adults to the 8 year old is hooked on this particular game. There's a two person version as well, but it's not as big of hit in our household. The graphics on the tiles are detailed, so this may not be a game for laptop size screens, but works just fine on regular larger monitors. You've also got the option to choose different tile graphics and layouts, which might help. One reason we purchased it is so that it could be played both on the Mac and the MS PC and it does that well. It has some fun sounds as the tiles are matched and removed. If you have the CD in, you get the sounds. Without the CD, no cute sounds, but the game goes faster, so it depends on what you want. I like the quality, the flexibility, and the challenge of the Mahjong game offered in this CD."
3550,2,Betty Crocker Cooky Book,"Fast shipment, easy to find what I wanted. It was a gift for my daughter. Just what I ordered.....used but in very good condition. My daughter was very happy!"
3552,2,Good stuff,"When I listened to it, it made me miss Dream Street even more. I wish they had still stayed together and then the CD would have been all Dream Street songs! But regardless, it's a good CD! The new stuff is really good, but it was kind of weird putting ""You're Taking Me Over"" next to ""With All My Heart"" because their voices were still high in YTMO, but had dropped by WAMH. I also enjoyed hearing some of the redone old songs! If you like Dream Street, go out and buy this CD! Why are you still reading this? I said go out and buy it!"
3748,2,Build Better Than Expected,"Great product at great price (69.99 with free delivery). I recently purchased a panasonice upconverting dvd player and although the video, remote on that player is great the build quality is sub par compared to this player. glad to have this dvd player after having great experience with pioneer laser disc back in the day. usb input a huge plus. Great video. Don't hesitate."
3756,2,Follett's Guide to Usage,"As one who thinks it necessary to own every major English usage manual from Fowler on, I here state the firm opinion that Follett is the best of the reasonably contemporary examples and second only to Fowler. Follett is more erudite, more complete (not more comprehensive, I grant), and more analytical than the rest. (Yes, Bryan, this means you). For example, compare his treatment of the indefensible ""in terms of"" to any other.Someone speaks here of ""disagreeing"" with Follett's remarks on prescriptivism. Well, if you're not a prescriptivist then you oughtn't be reading usage manuals, and if you are one yet still disagree, you'd better find arguments more persuasive than his.Another critic says Follett isn't terribly useful as a quickhow-to guide. Well, true, but the genuine articles never are."
3803,2,terrific,The book was great! I have already recommended it to friends of mine. I would definitely read it again and again.
3804,2,A peppy lil guy that gets the job done!,"HIGHS: suction, bare floor cleaning, retractable cord, quietness, ease of useLOWS: tips easily, not great for carpets, bag capacityVERDICT: A good little helper on hard surfaces but not ment for carpeted areas."
3852,2,A Good Resource Book,Grasping God's Word makes an excellent resource book for any personal library. It is written in such a way that readers on several levels of education may find it informative and useful. A strong emphasis on application of Scripture is much appreciated.
3962,2,parts purchase,Kudos to the guys that helped me purchase this part. I had been through many local parts stores and everyone had me waiting many days or weeks even and alot more pricey. I will definitely go to these guys again and I highly recommend them!
3966,2,the BEST for many reasons,"This performance is one of my favorites in a large collection of dance videos. Not only for the dancers and choreography, but the music, too."
3971,2,Highland 91338 Triple Strength Bungee Cord Assortment,So far very good set. Wish they had more that were the same size in the set but the quality of the cords has been very good
3984,2,A Superb Textbook!,"Death, Society, and the Human Experience is a wonderful textbook! I have been using it in my class The Sociology of Death and Dying for the past four years. This book provides the information necessary to any real understanding and examination of societal assumptions and attitudes toward death and dying. It not only enhances the knowledge of the student but provides the groundwork for new readers in the field. The book is a beautiful presentation of stimulating facts that will help everyone confront death and dying in a more personal and lasting manner."
4103,2,Almost Amazing,The story of Eragon has all the makings of being one of the best fantasy books I have ever read. It only falls a little short during the few passages and plot lines that seem forced and don't allow you to get completely sucked into the book. Overall its worth reading.
4153,2,ANOTHER GREAT ADDITION TO THE COLLECTION !!!!!!,Not as magical and is darker than the first 3 movies. Overall it was a great movie!!!The ending leaves you anxious to see the next film!!!
4227,2,Enjoyed reading again after so many years!,I read the book many years ago in high school and wanted to read it again before I saw the movie. It is a classic and I loved being introduced to all the characters once again.
4263,2,Worth the wait,I thought the book was very good. It does get a little boring to me because of so much explicit detail written in on everything. The book is around 750 pages but well worth the read. Can't wait for the final book.
4289,2,love it,"I read this for the first time about 2 years ago. And when the books' free....This book (and the books after it) were great. Lousia May Alcott made 4 girls, that seem real. 4 girls with problems that girls have now.I especially loved the bond that the March family had. How happy they were when their father came home....Wonderful book. 5 stars."
4313,2,In Times of Trial,"Cheryl Brodersen is a gifted teacher. She's candid, humorous and real. I would say she has both her parents' (Chuck and Kay Smith) gifts of exhortation and teaching. Speaking from her heart, she helps you find God's grace in and through your trials."
4327,2,It is a necessity for anyone over 50!,This is a workbook-for both those comtemplating death or planning for it as an eventuality. It is also an instructional book on various methods of dealing with property so that one's wishes are fulfilled after death. Even young adults should have this to help parents or friends deal with loved ones with fatal or potential fatal diseases.
4476,2,Woderful and memorable.,"I watched this series when I was ten years old. I was astounded by the cinematography. It might have not been as advanced as today's movies but, it was worth the shot. You certainly will need patience to watch the movie but if you are a lover of the series, you can let your mind roam free. During turbulent times in my life in Nigeria, it provided me with a way of escape. I loved the theme song and I loved Aslan. He was stern with the girl because she needed to know the gravity of her situation."
4520,2,Another Reader looking for Another Adventure,"When i first got this book from the library i put it down after 3 pages. At the time it had looked to me like a big, boring book. I brought it home again to give it another chance (like 2 years later) and I think it's great. The story is good, bringing magic into a world you are most familiar w/ and even entering more worlds. The story of 13 year old girl mixed with another boy is weaved together of them trying to learn magic. Just novices, they are experimenting w/ Speech that leads them to a lot of trouble. I think Duane had a great idea, and even if it's not as exciting as some other books, it's worth it."
4534,2,Bragg Books are the Best!,"The Braggs have so much solid time-proven info for optimal health!Each one is jam-packed with valuable self-care info, which in my opinion,is the best and only way to go. Between this and my Naturopath, I'm in great shape.No unnecessary drugs and surgeries for me!"
4617,2,Superb version of a fine Heinlein story,"Have Spacesuit, Will Travel is one of the best of Heinlein's so-called juveniles (which I've always believed were some of his best writing) and now it is available is a really excellent audio recording. The Full Cast Audio treatment takes a great story and makes it come alive. Highly recommended!"
4799,2,The Very Best,"This is quite possibly one of the ten finest Albums/CDs every recorded. The Byrds at this time were the best the 60s had to offer and the 60s was the time period that mattered. The songwriting by Crosby in particular was genius. I love the Byrds, I miss Gene Clark, and I only wish this early version of the Byrds could have given us even more output before the break-ups and decline into the ""Rodeo"" format. Yes, the muscianship of ""Mcguin's"" country Byrds was truly groundbreaking but the songwriting was not even close. Get this one for a real trip."
4806,2,loved it,"my baby is 10 months old and fits very comfortable in this, the fabric that covers it is great quality and is very flexible and easy to inflate, but not to easy to fold back in the original shape to fit in the bag."
4837,2,Worked great,This product worked exactly as I had hoped. I did not feel like I had to keep running to the bathroom. It was controlled and effective.
4895,2,Oh lord!,"This is the DEFINITIVE Count Basie + Williams album! IT DOES NOT get any better than this!Of special credit:""Everyday"" <--Easily the best arragement--EVER!""Please Send me Someone to Love"" <--Ditto.etc etcBUY ITLISTEN TO ITLOVE IT!"
4915,2,Short & To The Point !,"Dover Thrift Editions of Charles Dickens Christmas Classic, ""A Christmas Carol"" is short and to the point. My kind of book. The world over knows the premise of Dickens classic but (especially) at this time of year is a story most people will enjoy reading again. The slim 68 pages makes it possible to share this story with a love one in less than an hour. Puts even the most hateful love one in the holiday spirit."
4921,2,It was a good book and a short book too,It was a good book I finished it in 3 days it was very very very short and I loved the movie
4932,2,"Not as great as the other seasons. Still missing Dana... it was great seeing her ""ghost"" in one episode!",I find that the 4th season was not as good as the previous ones. I love all the characters but I did not like Shane moving on so quickly with Paige. She seem to be more the person that Carmen wanted but without Carmen.
4944,2,Garmin nuvi 670 review,"I've had a Garmin Quest for many years and have used it throughout the U.S. and Europe on many trips. I bought the Nuvi 670 for my other cars. It has improved antenna sensitivity to work better in a city environment, pre-loaded U.S. and European maps, clearer and enhanced voice instructions as well as blue tooth and other features make this a really enjoyable and useful product."
4967,2,seams to be growing well so far,"seams to be growing well so far, Just needed plenty of water and it took a week and a half for the first sprouts to show up, just do reserch to make sure it will grow in your location."
4995,2,Stevenson's Best!,"This book is the best book i have ever read! i have already read this book 5 times and i will read it much more in my lifetime. Stevenson blends adventure and intrigue splendidly in this fast paced novel about a young boy who receives a treasure map from an old buccaneer, and his adventures afterward. Hawkins, the boy, meets up with salty pirates and finds good friends in the captain and doctor. i would reccomend that anyone who loves a good book and an exciting thrill should definately read this."
5075,2,All The Great Oldies!,"Wow, all the great oldies from the movie. And arrived very quickly, even though Standard shipping was selected."
5121,2,Must see rock film,"Not one for hyperbole, and hard to please, quite frankly. I feel like I've seen it all. But Beyond the Lighted Stage truly is one of the best rock films (the best?) AND documentaries I've ever seen. I've now watched it twice and I liked it BETTER the second time!We live in a mixed up, tortuous world. But a beautiful world too - where good people can get together to do great things. And - do it their way. What a great story. Neil Peart's Dad's comments about the day he joined Rush - man, if that doesn't get you fired up and warm your heart, nothing will."
5131,2,WE ALL NEED TO READ THIS ONE & PASS IT ON!,"WOW! She did her homework! It is all in here. Some startling insights and provocative thinking. After you read this one, you may rethink your reality. Perhaps we all need to read this to make sure we haven't overlooked some significant details! This should be in EVERY school, EVERY hospital, EVERY clinic, EVERY doctors office and every child protection agency office. If you suspect Abuse- get this book. You will gain valuable insight and will be able to see things you might otherwise have missed!"
5212,2,Wonderful read aloud book!,"I read this book to my 11 year old son. Both of us were captivated with Roald Dahl's experiences prior to and during World War II.Though our family has thoroughly enjoyed all of Dahl's fiction, this is the first non-fiction Dahl book we have read. The way he describes the people, places and machinery he encounters is so real and honest. He comes across as an astute observer during the times he describes. I found this book to be entertaining and educational. I only wish he had written more books about the next decades of his life."
5256,2,"Baby loves it, so do I!",This is a wonderful item. My son loves to try and catch the fish as they are moving around. The music and sounds will lull him to sleep in no time at all.
5279,2,Another Great Epic from Mr. Vidal,I just love the Narratives of Empire books from Mr. Vidal. This is the first book of these that I bought and fell in love with the story. Since then I have purchased the other books in the series and am just about finished with Empire and will be re-reading Hollywood next. For me I love the excursion to Hollywood of the silent era which I have done some reading on so much of what Mr. Vidal writes of I have read of before. It does help if you have a grasp not only of politics of the early part of the last century and of early Hollywood. Still if you have never heard of Warren G. Harding or D W Griffith you will still love the book because of Mr. Vidal's wonderful writing. His writing is so descriptive that you can see the places he writes about and his humor is such a treat. I would highly recommend these books to anyone and everyone.
5354,2,A fantastic vacuum for the price!,I bought this vacuum four months ago and it works great! Easy to use and really seems very powerful. Picks up things from your carpet that you didn't even see. The push-button release for the dirt container makes it very simple to empty. This is an excellent vacuum for the price. I use about a mid-range height setting for my carpets and it works great.
5382,2,not perfect,The lastest chapter is not good. The style is Different with above. Look like other author write it.
5437,2,The Quiet Earth,"Great movie that arrived in perfect condition and played perfectly as well. I would recommend purchasing for this seller at any time.Cheers,Scott"
5467,2,Good Tool Low Price,This is a great tool! it is quite accurate for a low price. not much more to say
5495,2,Tender,"One of the most tender and true to the heart works by E.M. Forster, teenagers as well as adults will find this classic one that will keep them up all night. The gentle love of young middle classed Emerson for the wealthy Lucy his only heightened when his uncontrollable love for her fluctuates. He doesn't know how to tell her!!! And when he does try to tell her, he only shocks and suspends her. Fantastic!"
5499,2,There is no better Physics text for the non-Ph.D. reader.,"This excellent series of texts covers almost every topic in modern physics. This is the only book on Physics that covers all this complex physics topics that could be understood by anyone with a college degree. However, for those without background in Calculus, you may have some trouble."
5508,2,Prior Reviews Are Not of This Set,I have not heard all of this set yet. I have the box Verve box set too and it is really great. The Verve Songbook Box has lots of the same material as included in this box set.The point of my writing this review is that all the prior reviews of this set are really from earlier issues of Ella's music. None of the reviews are of this set. All of the other reviews are dated before this set actually was released.More later.
5534,2,Best PS2 Motorcycle Game.,"This is the best PS2 bike game available. It isn't perfect, the soundtrack is lacking and the graphics are nothing special. I do however enjoy the physics modelling and gameplay. If you brake while leaned over in a curve the bike will tend to stand up/run wide (very much like my own road going sport bike). The arcade modes are probably too hard for most but the career mode (Riding Spirit) is tonnes of fun. Now if they could spruce up the graphics, add some online play, and improve the soundtrack..."
5538,2,Yeah for Little Bear!,"Once again Little Bear and his adorable, loveable friends have proven that good wholesome cartoons are out there! My 3 yr old adores these movies. My older children watched when on Nickelodeon...so happy I found them for my newest addition. Would recommend to anyone who is unsure of what their children should be watching."
5565,2,A Great First CD,"Elliott Yamin's new CD is a great new summer release.His easy going, melodic melodies prove why he ended up on American Idol.This CD is perfect for long car rides with the top down this summer. Yamin's soulful and inspired sounds make life easier and less stressful.His selection of songs highlight his talent and his range as a artist. I particulary liked track 9. This song makes a great dancing tune and the whole CD just sparkles.I'm looking forward to his next so I can add it to my collections"
5599,2,Should I or shouldn't I buy #7?,"I went through much of the reviews for book #7 and it's pretty split between the pros and cons.I'm almost done with #6, and cannot decide if #7 would be worth reading. Maybe skipping it and jumping to #8? Any opinions? As a whole, I give the series (#1 - #6) an 8. That's it"
5607,2,Pilot's Perspective,"I like adventure books, especially those that deal with northern flying. This title clearly fell into that catagory. The autor gave us a perspective of the Iditarod race that only a pilot could. As a pilot who has flown in Alaska I found all of his flying information to be accurate. But best of all the book was very well written. The author has polished his work. The chapters are all very readable and fascinating. I would recommend this book to anyone whose interests run along the same lines as mine do; flying, Alaska, adventure and the Iditarod. My only complaint is a complete lack of pictures."
5614,2,Cute,"These shoes are better than I expected. They are adorable and decent enough quality, considering the price. They are a little tight in the toe and I have narrow feet, or so I thought. I went up a size since I fall on a half size normally. I would HIGHLY recommend that others do the same to make the toe more comfortable. Otherwise, they are easy enough to walk in, very cute, and fairly comfortable."
5651,2,Good classic,"This album made earth wind and fire a pop group. Shining Star, That's the way of the world and reasons are hot. However, the songs are just as good."
5686,2,Fusion jazz gem from the masters,"This hard to find CD is a must for fans of fusion jazz. The groundbreaking quartet of Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke, Al DiMeola, and Lenny White provide the true fusion of rock and jazz with the hard driving ""Earth Juice"" and ""Vulcan World"". And then the solo piano of the title tune provides a surpassingly sweet moment of peace. Along with their classic Romantic Warrior and Weather Report's ""Heavy Weather"" this CD is a classic of early-mid-70's fusion jazz."
5716,2,Best of a Classic,"He may be old, but this is an exceptionally rockin slab of fun. One of the outstanding rockers of all time successfully translates his live show to the studio. Every song is dynamite, and very well recorded."
5746,2,Gotta see it to believe it.,"2001: A Space Odyssey meets Blue Velvet. It's as carefully paced and music-laden as the former, as far from redemption as the latter. Don't read any blurbs or summaries, just watch it."
5763,2,Excellent CD!,"I only recently learned about this band. This greatest hits CD contains lots of the songs played on satellite radio while I'm driving to work. Great band ! I love the singer. I only wish they were not broken up. An excellent bargain for a fan, new or old!"
5783,2,its okay,"Just remember when you buy this book that it's from Microsoft Press, so expect it to lean towards supporting the Microsoft Internet Explorer, with plenty of plugs accordingly - so some of the techiques in this book will not work on the Netscape browser - but these are clearly marked as such, so there shouldn't be any confusion. It comes with a CD ROM which helps you see what you are reading about and comes with a version of the MSIE that you can download. Its nice and easy to read and 'EVEN I' can understand it all"
5817,2,Not Just a Beloved Children's Book!,"This book is a delight to both young and old, and as many times as I've read it or had it read to me, I still love the story. For one thing the characters are unforgettable. Who can forget the Queen of Hearts, Tweedledum and Tweedledee and the Mad Hatter? There are so many adaptations of this book and so many varied ways to enjoy it, that there is perhaps a danger that it may be overused. I think though that it is best enjoyed read in a book since that is where the imagination can take over and make the book something magical. Take the time to reread this great classic. It's well worth it."
5858,2,great for what i do,This toy is great for customization as well as overall playing... I'm actually going to get another one just so I can customize an Ice cream van out of it... I recommend getting this if you customize toys... or as a gift for your kids
5922,2,Fantastic old movie!,I rented Casablanca as I hadn't seen it in years. I downloaded it onto my Kindle Fire and watched it on a long airplane flight. It was great!
5927,2,Grill skillet,This is a great item to stir fry of vegetables or shrimp over the grill. I love the detachable handle which makes it easy to take the skillet off and on when using on the grill. The pan cleans up easily.
5967,2,Better than the original,"It pains me to say that. But these instrumentals are much better than the versions with vocals. Sorry dude, but you're not a great singer. ""Clean Living"" was awesome. But that doesn't mean you have to sing on every track. Stick to what you do best: making beats. For other vocalists. Or, as is the case here and on most of his best older songs, instrumentals. If you didn't like 'The Third Hand' before, give this one a shot. I consider it the better album."
5993,2,The best movie ever made,"This is the best film of Akira Kurosawa and the best film ever made. Citizen Kane is as good as this movie, but cannot make you feel the same emotion. The history of the cinema never was the same after Seven Samurais."
6021,2,Please Reprint!,"Will the world listen to the plea of thousands and reprint this masterpiece of 60's parody!!! I cannot face the future without seeing Ms. Armbruster one more time! Also, I need to see the Dacron, Ohio newspaper parody too! Please, dear lord, to see the joy in my teenage children's eyes as they read these wonders for the first time would hearten my soul forever!!!"
6025,2,The best! I had to watch the last of it with the lights on!!,"This is my favorite movie of all time. It all begins when Lori (CURTIS) is babysitting 2 kids when psycho serial killer Michael Myers murders her friends and comes after her. I loved the ending and the rest of it. About half way through the movie, I got so terrorfied that I had to turn on the lights! This movie is so horrorfying, that it still grips you with fear long after the movie is over!"
6027,2,Absolutely Scary!,This would have to be one of the alltime scary movies.The roleof Michael Meyers steals the film. Meyers escapes from an insane asylum and returns home. His doctor played by Donald Pleasancegoes hunting for the evil Michael Myers. The villain of this movie starts killing the members of two groups of teenagers whoare celebrating Halloween.He is scary. After several killings by Meyers the movie comes to a conclusion. The doctor finally locates Meyers and shoots him several times blowing him off the balcony. The movie has a creepy ending with the supposedly killedMichael Myers nowhere to be found.The music at the end of the movie is absolutely creepy. Jamie Lee Curtis in the role of thebabysitter does an exceptional role. This is a must see movie. Buy it.
6154,2,Beautiful and Practical,"This is a beautiful, practical (or should I say, practical, beautiful) piece. It is called a ""Casserole for Two"" but that would be two that are very hungry. I use it mainly for soups. It goes from cooktop to tabletop perfectly. When I do use it in the oven for a casserole, the same is true. It is a beautiful serving dish. The pan cleans easily. I cook for two (sometimes three or four)and use the ""Casserole for Two"" frequently and love it. Jo"
6188,2,Volume 3,It's good to see the characters in a different setting. Rowan Atkisson plays a very different part in each of the four seasons. Great take on how to develop a series.
6233,2,Must have for Colorado vacation!,"I just returned from vacation in Winter Park, CO. This book was an invaluable resource. I knew exactly where to go, how to get there and what to expect. The guide is very accurate and easy to use. If only it could control the weather!"
6251,2,A step up from Shadow Rising,"After a couple of chapters to set the stage, the Rand plotline moves forward at breakneck pace throughout this volume and a number of important events take place (including the biggest mystery of all in this series!). My only complaints were that the Siuan/Min/Leane and Elayne/Nynaeve threads moved too slowly at times. However, the Elayne/Nynaeve thread still had some critical events take place. I truly enjoyed the Rand/Aviendha interaction, as I did Mat resisting the call of battle at first before giving in. The last 100-150 pages of this book are shattering, and really serve as the conclusion to the events from Shadow Rising. While it dips in parts, this is a solid four rated book and really makes you yearn for the next book."
6423,2,A really good young song writter,"My girlfriend and I went to go see Jessica Simpson in concert and Ryan opened up for her and everbody loved him. He played about five songs and all of them where great they had great song writting and the music was very catchy and he has a great voice I really like ""Shame On Me"" on the new album I cant wait til his CD comes out Ryan is going to be the next big thing look out for Ryan Cabrera and buy two of his CD one for home and one for the car."
6438,2,Love Dexter,"I have watched Dexter since the first show on the network stations. That got me hooked! When I learned that I could purchase the DVD's on Amazon I just had to have them. Amazon.Com has been great! What I like about Dexter is the fact that he lives a regular life while having this one secret! I watched Michael C. Hall on Six Feet Under and loved the part he played, I think he is great!!!"
6488,2,The best product for crosswords.,This is my second copy of The New York Times Crossword Puzzle Dictionary. I am replacing the first copy that I have worn completely out from constant use. I have over the years found no better assistance for crosswords than this product.
6493,2,Never an IPOD believer..now I'm sold,"I have never been a believer in the IPOD before. Always seemed to fragile and too expensive. I had a Creative Labs Zen that was sturdy...took abuse...but heavy...a bit cumbersome. I saw the Nano and immediately checked it out. Was I wrong about Apple. This Nano is amazing. I had it for less than 2 hours and put about 400 songs and more than 200 clear, sharp pictures on it. I'm sold! Also, all those folks who advise how this thing scratches, etc. I don't buy it. I've thrown this around my car, my pocket..all over the place. It shows some fingerprints, but that's about it. No scratches, no broken screens, nothing except cystal clear sound a crystal clear display. I love my IPOD Nano. Great job Apple!"
6495,2,ipod nano 4gb-white,"I love the ipod nano. It started when my friend got one, so I did to. I just got it today, and listening to it right now (Everclear- Father of Mine) and I LOVE IT. The case that comes with it is OK for now.I recommend getting the largest version (Max storage)"
6553,2,Rodan you bet,Rodan is a complete story. It includes people elements and the state of the arts special effects for the times. I have been looking for a clear copy of this film and this is it.
6600,2,4-Wheel Drive Trails,"This book is very helpful to the novice or experienced off roader. It is very descriptive of trails, landmarks, and gives you a accurate mileage counter at needed intervals along the way. This book grades the trails into three classes, easy, for most high profile 2wd or 4wd vehicles, moderate, for 4wd vehicles with lower gearing and somewhat experienced drivers, and then there is difficult, for the experienced driver with specialized modifications like diff. lockers, suspension lift, recovery devices and the willingness to have some damage done to the body or drive train of your vehicle. I would highly recommend this book."
6659,2,EXCELLENT,Excellent at removing small scratches from auto finish without damaging the paint. I have used this for years and found nothing better.
6701,2,a nice surprise!,"I have been reading Jodi's books wayyyyy before she became so mainstream. I never bought this book though because the topic seemed really iffy to me. I just didn't see how she could pull off this topic and make it into a good book. After getting her newsletter though and seeing one of the characters would be in her new book, Change of Heart, I decided it was time to read it. I must say I'm so happy I did. As a Catholic I found it especially interesting. Don't let the topic fool you though like it did me. There is a lot of religion but underneath that is a great plot and story line. Really enjoyable!"
6717,2,Oasis are generally good.,"Really, it is hard to go wrong with an Oasis record. They always have some good lyrics hovering over some good rock music. To me, none of their albums, with maybe the exception of ""What's the Story"" are really totally great and timeless, but overall, it is good rock music."
6743,2,Enjoyable BUT....,"I thoroughly enjoyed this book but, if you are looking for details and insight from ""the man himself"" re: Frank Zappa's extensive body of recorded works, then you will be sorely dissapointed.The first chunk of the book is mostly about his childhood and the last half or so is devoted to barbed essays on a miscellany of dis-jointed topics such as politics, raising a family, inventions that Zappa couldn't get funded, etc. In the middle you get a smattering of chronology describing the formation and first few years run of the original Mothers of Invention... Zappa's musical exploits through the 70's and 80's is nearly completely ignored!!, ...Instead of devoting numerous pages to tedious diatribes concerning the PMRC Music Labelling initiative, (which now seems like a historical ""non-issue""), I would have far preferred to have read an album-by-album review by Zappa offering insight into each of the tracks and any related anecdotes behind their creation."
6795,2,"It's Good; Not Sure if ""Superfast"" is the Word, Though...","I just received this cookbook and was super excited to see some pretty awesome recipes in it. My only question is about the choice of the term ""Superfast."" To me, a wife that works full time, weekday dinners need to be fast. And, there is a plethora of information out there on fast meals, but most aren't too healthy. I need a combination of both. And, I thought this would be it.But, I think the term fast means something different to me. These are quick, easy recipes for 7PM on a Monday when I get home. These require a lot of additional prep that I wasn't looking for.It will be great for weekends when I have more time, but for weekdays, I continue my search. Looking for the holy grail that is the truly healthy, yet quick, weekday cookbook. The search continues! =)"
6810,2,Gone With the Wind is the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!,There isn't a whole lot to say that hasn't already been said about Gone With The Wind. What a magnificent motion picture for it's day and now for today as well. The DVDS' are a tribute to this must have film for your home library.
6839,2,Oustanding collection,"This album was a must-have for me because of all the tracks in general and one in particular. It is also a well-made album with very good acoustic quality. ""Time in a Bottle"" is a special song for my wife and I. So is ""I'll Have to Say I Love You in a Song""; and there are other favorites on this and other albums. In January 2011 we celebrated our 40th Anniversary with dinner at Croce's Restaurant in San Diego. (Owned by his widow Ingrid. If you are a Jim Croce fan and in or visiting San Diego, going here should be at or near the top of your to-do list.)"
6916,2,It's A Wonderful Life,"This is an awesome and timeless classic for the entire family. Just when you think you're life isn't going so well, watch this movie and it reminds you of what really is important in life. I recommend it highly and it's a great addition to your movie library."
6936,2,Springfield 13 Inch Thermometer,Nice and easy to read from a distance. Very lightweight. It does what it is advertised to do.
6953,2,Can't live without it!,"I've owned the same Patio Caddie for over 10 years now! It grills beautifully over clay briquettes, giving that great smoke flavor and does it all on a fraction of the propane. The key to getting lots of heat from a tiny burner is cooking COVERED. I even bought a kit to retrofit the burner plate and made the old grill like new again for $20!It's a small grill, but will cook six large steaks all at once."
7004,2,A charming Mexican Romantic Comedy,Anyone who has any familarity with Mexican culture will immediately identify with this movie. The son who does his mother's bidding no matter what. The young woman who marries to escape the constrictions of the family. The closeted nature of gay life in Mexico. The mother who works to make sure her son is happy as well as presents the proper appearance in society. Someone from the United States might wonder what all the fuss is about. But the movie touches on the Mexican world view and gay people in a compassionate manner for the time. A good training manual for any gringo who decides to involve himself with a Mexican male.
7065,2,Underrated blues/rock band compels musicianship to new level,"Much in the spirit of Zeppelin, the Badlands take their smart rock and outline a detailed map of musicianship that easily makes todays Limp Bizkit compost creations, a musty meddle of distasteful whiner garbage. When it's said that this CD is hard to find, there is a duel meaning. Finding a copy to own for yourself may be quite a challenge, but more importantly, a CD of this calibur is hard to find in a world where it's cool to regurgitate already virulent ideas. This CD is more than enough to make the group's cover of James Taylor's ""Fire and Rain"" a rock n' roll classic."
7115,2,o.k. terrific,it's absolutely happening here. the gangmembers will probably be the evildoers' new police force
7121,2,Excellent...the VI Bible,"I have used this book at my workplace for some time, and it is an excellent book. A must for any serious VI users. Now I am actually buying it so that I can quickly grab it for reference, instead of running down the hall to grab your friends copy."
7160,2,Dora's reviews,My husband and I watch this movie a lot. It is funny. I had never heard of this movie but I am glad I purchased it. I recommend it to anyone.
7253,2,A Real Lesson that can be applied to life,"Snow White-a tale of terror isn't just a tale that is merely entertainment. This tale actually teaches you about life. It's very real, dark and hopeful at the same time. I loved Lili and her courage to defeat the evil stepmother. I liked how it was a battle between good and evil. I think it has a lot to teach about vanity, jealousy, and deception. Not to forget, LOVE. Real Love! Lili was a courageous character and I aspire to be like her."
7336,2,Singing voice that mind gets warm,It is a famous piece of music collection which keeps being eternally heard.
7380,2,Babylon & Ting,"OK, so everyone already knows the reputation that this early orb effort carries, tracks such as OOBE and Blue Room are widely recognised as chill-dub classics. The fact is that this album is the epitomy of what makes the orb, the orb....The songs are long and consist of layoured soundscape backdrops for dub rhythms and drifting samples. This album is an extremely accomplished work, which changes tempo, style and even volume with no flaw as you move through the tracks.Blue Room is a favourite track of mine and I wish I had the single, Wobbles bassline adds to the track immensely. Towers of Dub follows it and gives the listener an insight into the orb's sense of humour (you need to have seen Victor Lewis-Smith's TV work) which is black at the best.If you have [the money] in your pocket and your in a music store knowing that this is the only album you will ever buy, go on - endulge me and try this."
7436,2,The best book I'll ever read!,"This book is a wonderful story. It is a real page-turner. I couldn't put it down. Charlotte Bronte does awesome discriptions. I recomend this book to everyone who likes most classics. I wish people still wrote books this good. I guess you could call this book a trying-to-find-your-place-in-the-world story. Jane is totally amazing! Even if I am only 11, I can understand what Ms. Bronte is talking about."
7449,2,It made me love to read!,"I've never been a reader but I joined a book club and this was the book of the month. I was very sure that I would never be able to read one of the classics and that I would be bored to tears. To my delight and surprise, this novel far surpassed any expectations I ever had. I was hooked from the beginning and looked for any opportunity to get away to read the book. It is not a fast read as the language was a big difficult at times but I learned to overlook the things that weren't so important to me and get on with the story. I have read two more classics since this novel and although Jane Eyre was my favorite, I am now a full fledged reading junkie."
7453,2,A job well done,This book is one of or the best that I have read in a long time. The writer of the book did an excellent job creating and evoking a variety of feelings within me. I am glad I read this book and I hope you will be too.
7477,2,Another Bette Davis Classic that does well,"This is a pretty good performance by Bette Davis, Karl Malden in a movie that features a ""poor twin"" and a ""rich twin"". The ""poor twin"" kills the ""rich twin"" and takes over her life.Pretty similar to another movie called ""Stolen Life"" that explores the same theme, except she takes over the twins life after an accident, not after killing her.Although not one of her best, it is still a good watch and a good performance by both actors."
7586,2,My Pup Can't Get Enough of Them,"My Rottweiler is allergic to almost every animal protein on the planet. So far, he is doing ok with whitefish and salmon. That is why this treat is so good. It does smell strongly of fish, it smells good. Its got a crunchy texture, its unlike any other pup treat I've found. My pup loves it, when I take the bag out of the pantry he runs to the kitchen and sits for his treat. Don't even have to call him.The 28oz resealable bag is great, the treats last a long time. If your pup has allergies, you may want to think about giving this one a chance. Guaranteed, your pup will love them."
7619,2,Another Supreme Vampire title!,this one is good very good in fact! imagine vampires came forward and revealed themselves to the world (only about 4500 world wide) sun does not harm them they are allergic to silver (umm werewolves eh sheesh) and beheading is fatal its a modern future that looks decayed such as ww3 took place (in london no less lol) but the explanation of vampires as an evolutionary step rather then supernatural was refreshing for a change yes they can climb walls yes they drink blood and yes they are super strong ( as demonstrated in the video of vampires showing themselves lifting something not so light hehe)4 of 5 stars only one star loss for being a little talkie but theres enough action and vampire action to make this film a must own to any true vampire fan!
7677,2,It's fresh!,"My bag has remained fresh since its still wrapped in plastic, but everyone should know what to expect from Jansport bags: durability, comfort and versatility."
7687,2,Plugged it in ... Next thing I know I am Connected.,"Install the drivers, shut down, plug it in, boot back up and Windows knows right where the drivers are. Then suddenly it's installed and I am connected to my router. After being connected I went in and configures WEP to work and all those fancy things.I like this card and was surprised at how easily and quickly I was connected with a nice strong signal. My desktop is upstairs, but the wireless access point is downstairs. This card still gets a good signal."
7736,2,Good ole' boys playin' for 'em good ole' boys,"In the words of ole' Roadhog himself this record is ""mighty fine"". I heard these guys live when they opened for the Stafford Brothers and Mother Mayball Carter last Winter down to the Johnny Mack Brown Highschool gym and was imeadiately impressed. All I can say is buy as many copies of this country classic as you can get yer hands on before it goes out of print.Five stars jist aint enough, Thanks boys and keep on a'singin'"
7742,2,Spice Girls In America Was An Awesome Documentary!,"The Spice Girls new video is Girl Power packed, funny and entertaining all at the same time. It's like Spice World, but not scripted! This movie rocks!"
7796,2,"Not just another ""chick flick""","This is the standard to which all modern ""romantic-comedies"" should be held. This is a truly funny and romantic movie, without being too sentimental or sappy. Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan have wonderful chemistry, the writing and acting is sharp, and most of all--this movie is laugh-out-loud FUNNY. Too often, movies of this genre are way to weepy and cute to interest most men (and a lot of women). This movie keeps the tone light and realistic, and the humor is sarcastic and clever, so that everyone should enjoy this wonderful story. And yes, the diner scene is a classic...I laugh at the woman's line at the end of the scene every time."
7815,2,Will make you laugh out loud,Reminded me a lot of some of Lewis Grizzard's work. Great travel book that you can pick back up anytime.
7837,2,What the critics find lacking I find fun escapism,"Okay, so you knew how the story would end at the beginning, but isn't that true of all romantic comedies? If you like the genre, you accept that the storyline is predictable but that seems to be what the ""artistic"" movie critics abhor. I enjoyed this movie. I enjoyed Sandra's quirky antics and Hugh's self-centered blindness. But I also enjoyed ""French Kiss"" and ""Kate and Leopold."" Is this the absolute best romantic comedy out there? No. But does it provide 70-80 minutes of escapism? Yes."
7941,2,Great Western,"Cast is great - good to see an early Heston in a Western role. A little long, but very enjoyable."
8018,2,Fabulous recording,"This is, from all Händel Concerti Grossi recordings that I know, the most fabulous soul moving experience ever. Just super!"
8022,2,Wonderfully Fun!,"I don't know who loves this disc more, me or my 3 year old! The Baby claps along too! Great songs that make you smile and tap your toes!"
8099,2,GREAT SOUND...GREAT VALUE,"It was time to replace my 25 year old Technics towers. I wanted something much smaller, without giving up the great sound I was accustom to. I listened to a lotta speakers from Bose, Wharfdale, Polk, and for the money, these were by far the best. Good bass, crisp highs & rich midrange sound. I'm very happy with these & I hope they last as long as my last set."
8106,2,I loved this CD!,"In moments of creativity, you can only hope to put as much of yourself as possible in your work. That's what Paula Cole has achieved with ""Amen"". In this eclectic mix of funk, pop tunes, and bluesy numbers, you not only hear and feel her struggle for love, inner peace, political righteousness, and a life of spiritual meaning - you want it too. Honestly, there are a few ""fillers"" in the album, hence the 4 star rating. But with evocative tracks such as ""I Believe in Love"", ""Amen"", ""Pearl"" and ""Be Somebody"", these ""fillers"" are forgiven. In short, Paula Cole offers a musical reflection of herself and ourselves as well in our struggle for harmony in our personal relationships, our humanitarian responsibility in the world, and our spiritual balance in the universe."
8107,2,A different album from Paula- yet a much needed one.,"I'm a little surprised that so many people would come on to post such negativities about this new album or about Paula herself. I have been a fan of hers for well over 3 years, and will continue to be. This is a remarkable, powerful, and unusual album. It's great. She does a remarkable job both in her compositions, her vocals, and her lyrics. Hey, and to all you people out there who, like me, support Paula in this effort, remember one thing about some of these negative and weird comments from people; remember that not everyone is blessed with intelligence!"
8112,2,Impressive Sleep CD,"I have finally found an effective safe method of getting a restful night's sleep. I would highly recommend this CD to anyone who has ever had a fitful night's sleep.Jonathan Rubin, MD"
8147,2,A bit of Sunshine in a Box,I had an Auntie Mame in my life and before she died recently I gave her a copy of this movie and we watched it together and laughed and reminisced together and just enjoyed the movie and each other's company. Then she was gone. I'll always treasure that day and the memories I made with my Auntie Mame. Don't pass up an opportunity to enjoy true entertainment - and have a few tissues handy too!
8150,2,Love this product!,Product great. Had one small problem with the product. But seller turned around and made it right. Very quick. I would buy from this seller anytime!!!!
8184,2,resurect E.1999,"Dear Mr. Ougi, There has never been a group that could flow like Bone. Eazy got it right when he put those guys together. All thuggish Bone fans will love this album. It makes the art of war look like Britaney Spears (with the exeption of ""Thug Love""). I am sorry, but I just dont think it compares with E. 1999 NOTHING EVER WILL! Thats why I gave it a 4!"
8195,2,Sleeping Beauty,What a wonderful movie. Reminded me of watching when I was a kid and so happy to have found it again for my kids.
8232,2,Feeling Mellow,"This is a great CD when you're feeling mellow or slightly sad. Nonetheless, the lyrics still have bite, which keeps it one step above the rest. It doesn't push, but is very subtle and understated. For this reason it lives on as a classic, after all the other fads of music have passed on by. You have to hear it."
8243,2,Best I've Found So Far,"My four year old son will sit and watch this even though he insists he does not want to learn Chinese and prefers to watch cartoons. It moves pretty slowly, but it does have entertaining features, such as real animal photos, funny masks, and video of kids playing on the beach. The speakers are not native, but they seem to be taking care to speak clearly and use correct inflections. There is a decent amount of repetition. Even though my son refuses to repeat any of the words, I think it is training his ear to pick up Chinese more easily later. I find the pin ying subtitles helpful and wish they were provided throughout, instead of just the first time each word is introduced and during the recap at the end."
8247,2,Lil Wayne beats all of his other albums,Think about it...if birman and mannie fresh put alot of work in this album it's got to be great. The problem is it's not an album that you can listen to over and over again.
8269,2,A Good Collection Of Cindy Morgan's Music,"I remember a couple of my favorite Cindy Morgan songs that did not make this collection: ""Love Will Break Your Fall"" and ""Reason To Live"". Are there any songs out of these 14 that should be taken off to make room for one of these two? Not really. That means this is a good collection.Besides the two I mentioned, this collection also has these other personal favorites: ""Sweet Days Of Grace"", ""How Can I Ask For More"", ""Real Life"", ""Listen"", ""Let It Be Love"", and ""I Will Be Free""."
8284,2,Excellent for the price!,This an excellent comforter for the price! The down pockets are evenly spaced and plumply filled but the down still moves around a bit between squares and it takes a lot of time to wiggle the down back into the center of the comforter. The feather pillows that came free with this in November took nearly 3 months to arrive. The cover is soft and the comforter is very comfortable.
8296,2,"Captivating, I couldn't put it down...","I love the Scarpetta books. The charactors in these books seem so real, it is like you can get to know them and their habits. It almost feels like you become one with Kay, Lucy and Marino, you worry about what will happen to them next. I like how Jo's parents have to deal with her lesbianism, and how Kay tries to explain it to them. These books show just how screwed up this world can be, but how there is some good in the world, people just need to be more open minded. This book was a little bit more predictable than the others though, the plot leading up to what I knew would happen. I find that annoying, but still the book was very good. I can't wait for the next one to come out."
8304,2,"Overall, a good read.","I have read all of Patricia Cornwell's books, and I was glad to see Scarpetta back. Even though this novel was weaker than her earlier ones, it was a far cry better than Southern Cross or Hornet's nest. Scarpetta's character was a little too depressed and drug the story down a little. Overall, though, it was enjoyable reading."
8311,2,Anywhere she is....,"Patricia Cornwell may take you to a city street in Virginia or to a country across the ocean, but the fact is that Patricia takes you where ever she goes. You cannot resist the tug of her pen as she writes her story all around you. Before you know it, you are not sure if you should put on a pot of coffee for Marino or a neglige for Benton. Thanks Patricia, we can all use a break from our own lives now and then!"
8383,2,Classic Chinese Folklore,Anyone and everyone in America has grown up on the fairtales of Europe. This is one the best movies out there about a classic chinese tale of swords and sorcery of horror and love. As the title suggest. I can't really find the words to explain it but this movies rates up there with Fong Sai Yuk 1 and 2. Its that good.
8398,2,can't wait for their next album,"In 1994 I bougt their single Plush. Vasoline was the next one.In 1996 I heard Trippin on a hole in a paper heart. That song was in my head for years. Last year I bought Tiny Music for thatsong. A great album with no bad song on it. No 4, purple and Corewere next. Maybe a little late but not too late to became a fan.Their last effort Shangri-La Dee Da is a classic too in today'sirritating and narrow-minded music scene. Shangri-La Dee Da gotgreat rock songs on it. In addition I also like their soft side. It was like listening to The White Album. Even the fiercest critics must admit that STP got a great endurance. I can't waitfor their next album."
8445,2,My husband's Fav Shorts,Finding these cotton thin mens' shorts are difficult - they are the only ones my husband will wear. Their year-round cotton comfort and roomy legs and waist is what he wants. He likes the pockets and the drawstring waist too.
8450,2,"A beautiful voice and spirit, for singing beautiful music","This CD must be close to the best, if not the best, recent addition to my growing collection of Christmas CDs. Jewel's voice has a unique vibrancy which suits it pervectly for traditional Christmas carols. Her renditions of ""O Holy Night"", ""Silent Night"", ""O' Little Town of Bethlehem"", and ""Ave Maria"" are the best examples. On the other hand, she conveys a relaxed and swinging style on ""Winter Wonderland"" and ""Rudolph, the Red Nosed Reindeer. Her inner spirituality is feelingly expressed in her own originals, ""The Face of Love"", and ""Hands"". I hardly consider this a CD to use as background at a party. It's too beautiful to waste on a group not really listening to it. Instead, I recommend it for personal enjoyment and to share with special friends of like mind."
8501,2,Great stuff!,"I remember this album (remember those???) from the early 80s -- a roommate of mine at camp brought a tape and introduced me to it. That was it -- I was hooked on these English chicks! Surprisingly, there are some very sweet songs on this album -- ""What A Shambles"" comes to mind. This album just brings back great memories for me -- it's great! JAY."
8610,2,Apple Corer,I bought this apple corer so I could core my apples more easily than with a knife. It works as advertised so I'm happy! :)
8631,2,Comfortable and stylish!,"For the price, this is exactly what I wanted and needed. It is super comfortable and has just enough pockets for my computer, headphones, water and books."
8636,2,Where did I miss this one?,"I'm not sure how this work passed by me. Four classic Kingtales with numerous Dark Tower allusions, this is a must havefor all Stephen King fans. Its audio only, but the narrationis excellent. Sorry, no Frank Muller, but the reading is ofgreat talent.Someone help me out, when were these stories written? Are theynew, or recycled previously published as in Everythings Eventual."
8648,2,Drifting Away,"The drifting music ofLaura (Fox Film Noir)melts us into the portrait of a murdered beauty. We are infatuated. Vincent price walks into the scene and all we see is his usual handsome, tall and most charming presence. Judith Anderson claims your attention as she did in another unforgettable movie ""Rebecca."" Laura is cool and ravishing.After all though, I was subdued by Clifton Web, as the splendidly audacious Waldo Lydecker. His words are choice and sautéed in lemon juice; a wonderful contrast to Laura. I must agree with him, when gum-chewing Detective Lieutenant Mark McPherson has become infatuated with the portrait of Laura, he sneers ""Have you ever dreamed of Laura as you wife, sitting by your side at the policeman's ball or in the bleachers... or listening to the heroic story of how you got a silver shinbone from a battle with a gangster? (pauses) ...I see you have."" Laura's image does not transform into a housewife."
8726,2,The first of a line of fantastic records by the Jam,"The amazing thing about this record is its deceptive simplicity. It has all the halmarks of punk, 3 chords and attitude, but it has deep intelligence, pop reference and lays the ground work for the true Jam materpieces such as Setting Sons and Sound Affects. It's 1998 and I still listen to this great punk album in my car!"
8744,2,OXO Good Grips 28381 Corn Holders,"A very good product, much better than the usuall ones that break after a few uses."
8750,2,gets the job done,"before this i used another RCA cable - whenever my computer shifted even in the slightest, the stereo would completely fuzz out with an unbearable sound. this cable is completely sturdy. i can jostle all i like, and the sound stays constant. a good buy in my opinion."
8762,2,Fun and sexy romance,"This fun read had everything needed to make it a good romance. The hero and heroine were both very likable characters with a lot of fun banter. I liked the premise of the story; having the twin sister mistakenly rounded up by a bounty hunter was a fun and entertaining plot. The story had the right mixture of action,enjoyable dialog and romance to make me a new fan of this author. This was only the second book I've read by her but will certainly read more. The side plot with the twin sister was also a fun and enjoyable addition."
8784,2,"Works great, but breaks","I've been very happy with my OXO Garlic Press over the 5 or so years I've used it. The problem is that over time, the metal hinge wears out and eventually breaks, leaving the press useless. I've had this happen with two different OXO garlic presses, so I know it wasn't just a bad batch. I did use it fairly often, so maybe that just comes with the territory. For the third try, I'm going to try the Zyliss Susi press instead."
8807,2,This book will keep you wondering until the end,"I thought I could figure out the plot several times, but Victoria Holt spins away from the mundane. One never knows what's going to happen in the end."
8809,2,WHAT NOT TO DO WHEN GOING ON VACATION !!!!,MOVIE #1: CHILDREN LEFT BEHIND/ALONE .... CARELESS SUPERVISION BY PARENTS GOING ON VACATION ....MOVIE #2: CHILDREN LEFT BEHIND .... CARELESS SUPERVISION BY PARENTS GOING ON VACATION....MOVIE #3: CHILDREN LEFT ALONE .... CARELESS SUPERVISION BY PARENTS WORKING WITHOUT A NANNY IN HOMEE.....MOVIE #4: not yet watched by me....
8817,2,a classic,"This classic moved me to tears in parts. Although it is wordy compared with modern writing, it is a ""must"" for all who care for those still being exploited today. If you have nerver read it before-do so asap!"
8879,2,Awsome Set,Saw this show live and it was awsome! If you closed your eyes you'd have thought you went back in time 30 years. As tight as ever. They've lost NOTHING over the years (except maybe a little hair).
8896,2,Absolutely his best album,"This is Sir Elton at his finest. Before he turned too pop, this album ROCKS!! Aside from the hits, All the young girls love alice, dirty little girl, ive seen that movie too are really great songs possibly a sound you may not have heard from him yet, but will enjoy im sure. In my top 5 albums of all time."
8921,2,Best Revenge: How Theater Saved My Life and Has Been Killing,"This is a terrific book. It's a great read, a marvelous look at the struggles of an artist trying to make a living in the theater, and a must buy for anyone who plans to make the theater his or her life."
8924,2,Hands Down,"My Favorite Common Album, good beats good lyrics nothing hardcore just a good album, my favorite song is THISISME!"
8941,2,A Brilliant Story! READ IT.,"Stevenson draws you deeper and deeper into this chilling tale of a frightening addiction. Dr. Jekyll is a man exploring the soul, who discovers something hidden inside himself. This book weaves artfully around the always horrific subject of the evil within us all. Stevenson's beautiful language and imagery envelopes us in his mind, holding us frozen until the very last page. This story is as magnifcant as it is eerie. I loved this book. READ IT.Afterward, you may not want to look too closely into the mirror..."
8967,2,Really good product!,Great salad spinner! Sooo much better than my electric one. The bottom stays still while spinning. And it really gets all the water off my lettuce.
9042,2,this is NOT PERFORMED BY THE VILLAGE PEOPLE,"all other songs are sung by the familiar artists, but YMCA is NOT PERFORMED BY THE VILLAGE PEOPLE. Some woman I haven't heard of sings it, albeit somewhat satisfactorily."
9051,2,Great for even bigger hands,"Once my family started eating a lot of potatoes and sweet potatoes I found it necessary to purchase a good scrub brush as we like to leave the skin on.This is great, really cleans the potatoes and other root vegetables really well. Easy to clean and easy to use even for someone with XL hands like myself.OXO has yet to disappoint me."
9070,2,Ominous story of a future world,Atwood has masterfully written a tale of future world in which women are enslaved by zealots of a new world order. Her haunting epilogue of anthropologists clinically analyzing the remains of that world gives a somber tone to the end of the volume. I read this book in 1988 and again in 2013. It stands as a classic.
9086,2,Looking forward to CURSED,"Reading SCREAM seven years after the initial impact of the film--and in movie terms seven years is definitely a whole generation later--I wonder if it would be a success if Williamson wrote the same material today. Some of it is very clever, and the references to pop culture still work, but more might have been made of the human and emotional back stories of the main characters. Neve Campbell's character, for example, doesn't have the emotional resonance years later that (to take up a similar example in a different film genre) Molly Ringwald displayed in her movies for John Hughes.I look forward to CURSED, the new collaboration between Kevin Williamson and Wes Crave, though the rumors of the re-shoots and re-takes, actors being fired, etc., and dissatisfied test audiences, make one wonder if it won't be more like KILLING MRS TINGLE than SCREAM. Still, there's always hope."
9118,2,Superb technique,"Many of the reviews complain about Ewing's vocality, but this is exactly what makes the performance so blood-chilling perfect. Rather than just blasting out all the notes as you average battle-axe soprano would, Ewing uses the German ""sing-speak"" technique that became so briefly popular in the 20th century among composers of dissonance. Much of her banter is spoken in melody with dramatic inflection, although to the musical notes, and is amazingly effective in portraying a fixated, spoiled, and nasty teeny-bopper. She has perfected operatic creepiness as it was intended for this work."
9209,2,phenomenal performance natalie!,"can't imagine a more gut wrenching tortuous emotional scene than natalie grieving over her lost love, her breakdown, isolation, and heartbreaking attempt to check out is overwhleming... it was one deep intense moment after another, each yielding more pain and further escape to attempt the bleed out... killer movie, hard to compare with R&J due to the known ending and less contemporary dialogue... have seen this film several times and each provokes the same response, beyond sympathy and knowing there is no way back, ending so unsatisfying but assess they would most likely be incompatible after a short time given Deanie's high maintenance emotional IQ and Bud's clueless nature. ahhhh me, the poetry never really gelled the main theme imo, but the attempt was appreciated."
9218,2,Full!,"This is a complete collection of Music Studious, Music Press, Manufacturers, and so on. I was impressed by this book when I first read it. I have been in the music business for a long time and I never saw such a complete collection of places to go. Amazing and very useful! I highly recommend it!"
9397,2,Cool idea!,"I Like it... Definitely allows me to keep track of my meds intake. But it would have been better if the am/pm slots had separate openings. Besides that, its a cool product.."
9533,2,Incredible!,"This is a really thought provoking book, and ventures into a realm that nearly everybody, secretly wants. It is very high-detailed, yet the plot reads extremely quickly. There is no fluff. The ending really made me think, and after I read it, I felt a renewed sense of appreciation for the world we live in. Read this. You won't regret it."
9549,2,Great book,I really liked this book. It is thought provoking and a great book for a book club to read. Generates lots of discussion!
9566,2,"Good features, works well","Nice features: the clip onto the ring holds when it should, releases when it should. Distance from where the rubber part ends to the spoon bowls is well thought out, enough grip, yet enough metal flat area to scrape against a jar top."
9588,2,I like all of the Clarks shoes I have ever worn.,I ordered this as a replacement for a pair I wore out. It took me several years to go through the first pair. These feel good but may not be as sturdy as my old ones. I'm going to give them a few miles test walk then may go up to the 5 stars.
9625,2,Excellent!!!!,"buy this tent for my son and loved it, is excellent material and durable, they can buy it for the beach but also for interior cool as it is a little warm, but a very good material is complete"
9685,2,A solid 12 song comp and best seller for Mercury since 1960,"This collection is a reissue of the classic compilation from 1960 entitled ""Golden Hits"" on Mercury which among its 12 songs are several of her signature songs including Tennessee Waltz, Doggie In The Window, Cross Over The Bridge, Changing Partners, Allegheny Moon and others from the early 1950s in their original form. Although the 2 volume ""Patti Page Collection"" and the boxed set ""A Golden Celebration"" are more comprehensive, this is still worth having for Patti Page on the go and this has been a perennial best seller since it was released in 1960. She would later sign with Columbia and come back with many more hits including ""Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte"" but to start with this is the cream of the crop and on this CD it includes ""With My Eyes Wide Open I'm Dreaming"" while the Millennium Collection is notable for restoring ""Let Me Go Lover"" back in print as the boxed set and Vol. 2 of the Patti Page Collection are now out of print."
9729,2,"I have 3, two large and one smaller","I have three of these balls, I also have 3 dogs. A DDR German Shepherd at 96lbs, a 60lb Husky mix and a 45lb Collie mix. The two smaller dogs love these toys. The shepherd (Blitz) saw me lightly toss the ball and treats fall out so Blitz will pick up the toy and throw it against the wall. HOme and toy still survives even today. Great way to keep dogs happy on a rainy day or before they go to bed. These can survive in my house I know they are built to last."
9775,2,A spectacular growing up book,"This was one of my favorite childhood books. No, it's no longer the right thing to do to buy a child a puppy as a birthday present, but barring that out of date idea, the book is a timeless classic. It's one children enjoy having read to them again and again. I'll always remember Bitsy's beds. Highly recommended."
9779,2,"most admired beatle album, though not favorite","There's plenty of reason for 27 straight weeks in the number one spot and four grammy awards. The songwriting, engineering and visual artistry were not so much ahead of their time, but rose above the standard, while doing something only classical musicians had tried to do before 1967, make a timeless definitive statement.Most popular and most mentioned songs people note, include With a Little Help from My Friends, When I'm Sixty-Four, and the darker A Day in the Life.I was always taken with the contemplative She's Leaving Home and Fixing a Hole.One thing I like about my CD re-release over my original LP (aside from the fact the LP is worn out) is that I can program out Good Morning and Lovely Rita Meter Maid. With those two gone, I enjoy the album almost as much as I do Abbey Road."
9794,2,wow,"It may not be the best Beatles CD, but I have a hard time picking out a better album that is not by the Beatles (as a band or solo). If you like classic music, you'll love Sgt. Petter."
9806,2,Botany at its most entertaining,"The author loosely applies the label ""North American Wildflower"" to all blossoms now running free on our continent. Many were brought over by early European settlers and the plants quickly jumped out of the garden and into the wild. Author includes snippets for each plant from other literary sources dating throughout the centuries (some very funny and bawdy!)"
9927,2,what are they talking about,have they even listened to the albumgreat recordnot a sophmore slump thats for surei can set my cd player to random and be happy all daynot a song on the album that i dislike
9939,2,Not quite as tasty as the rest of the line,"These bars have the perfect mix of carbs and protein that I look for in a meal replacement bar, but unlike the rest of the bars in this line I found the taste and consistency a little off for my tastes. Still a great meal replacement bar for the cost."
9963,2,Heartbeats and Heartaches,"This is a biography based on actual account typify of most intellectual Chinese from PRC. From nationalism, to communism many scholars endured difficult times couping with constant political unrests and made the most of their lifes. Professor Qin kept most of the difficult times to her self and moved on with her family. Those with great tolerance accept what was given and try to move on... An excellent book highly recommended."
9969,2,A++++,"This is from a mother. Im not crazy about Disney movies. But I saw this on TV and I was hooked. I couldn't leave the TV. Its sweet, has great messages, wonderful acting and a lots of fun music. This was a wonderful movie. I would buy this in a second."
10013,2,"Rousing, historically-based tale of English in India","Wonderful, rousing, and educational - you have to read this with a bookmark in the footnotes section, and you'll probably enjoy doing so - the historical research Fraser does is astounding, and exposes much of the hypocrisy of John Company's stay in ""Indja""."
10052,2,Ellen unplugged and at her best.,Ellen does a fanastic job making and writing her own stories jokes and words in this book. She encourages you not to always take things so seriously and gives you a major laugh. WARNING: Only read while on firm surface- you might fall off of it laughing.
10131,2,thank you,Item is exactly as described by seller. Item is of good quality. I would recommend this item to anyone who is looking for such an item at a great price!
10134,2,"Expensive, but works perfectly","While I can't compare this product's effectiveness to that of other screen cleaners, as this is the first one I've ever used, this product works amazingly well and restored my LCD to its original glory.I bought this based on the other reviews, specifically mentioning the Powerbook, because my MacBook Pro screen was extremely dirty, with streaks on it that clearly annoyed during movie playback. It arrived, and voila, my MacBook Pro's screen looks factory new.The solution lets out a bit of a foamy soap when rubbed in, and it just works wonders. The only thing is, this product is quite expensive. Not surprising considering it's a ""Monster"" product."
10154,2,Easy to read educational breeding book,"Excellent read for a new breeder such as myself and a great value considering the cost of this book if bought new. My husband claims to never have read a book in his life, but read this cover to cover."
10200,2,two great albums,"Both these albums, Gracious' complete distography as far as I know, are great. They both contain either side long suites--that work--or songs with many parts. The writting is non-lineier throughout.The music contains lots of instrumentation: harpichords, alarm bells, heavy guitar, and heaps of mellotron. The mellotron is particually emphasized, but not to orchestrate the way the Moody Blues or early King Crimson used the insrtrument. Gracious uses its merky, primative sound-primative by today's standards-to create dark, frighening undertones. The tron is present a great deal. but it is deep within the music, which actually makes it more effective.The songs jar from an almost Bach like gracefullness to abrupt bursts of noise and dissonent hard rock. Suprises abound, and Gracious never falls into prog-cleches'Violent, unpredictable and origonal, this is a band you definately want to hear. I have not listened to anything quite like it."
10229,2,A Must Have for ALL Canon Digital Camera Owners,"If you own one of the fantastic, compact Canon digital cameras than this is a must have.I bought a new Canon SD880IS for Christmas and the built in flash only has a usable range of about 10-13 feet. This is very typical of compact digital cameras. This is due to the small size of the cameras and small batteries. It is all a compromise. For most shooting this is not a problem as you can usually shoot without flash or are within range. However many times you need more flash range when shooting in large rooms, museums, concerts, and public places. The HF-DC1 solves this problem by giving you more range - up to 30 feet. This flash works with many Canon models, check the Canon Website or your camera owners manual for complete details.It is a must have for Canon digital camera owners. Highly recommended !"
10320,2,"Please, mum, can I have some more?","This is a fabulous recording, finally available on CD! Lorraine Duisit plays a variety of stringed instruments and plays them really well. Tom Espinola is a fine player as well. I loved Lorraine in the band Trapezoid. Here she plays w wide breadth of music im the same vein. My only wish is that she sing a little more."
10335,2,from a Venice lover,"I anxiously awaited this book because The Garden of Good & Evil was a blast and had such a wonderful flow. This one feels a little clumsier and contrived but since Venice is one of my favorite cities, it kept my interest. I'm giving it a four because I consider Berendt a fine writer but wish he had cooked up a jucier plot."
10344,2,mother/child necklace,Every mother needs a cameo of their child. It makes a great gift for a new mother. The quality of this product is very good.
10486,2,Intriguing,"This was my first Clive Cussler book. I didn't realize that I was jumping into the 15th or 16th book in the series. I can't wait to go back and read the previous ones. This book combines ancient history and adventure, as well as politics and the military, in an effort to provide a first-rate novel. The character development that went into this book and the series is phenomenal and is second only to the creative storyline that keeps you guessing until the end. If you like me are a fan of paperback novels packed with action and adventure this series is for you."
10492,2,Does the job for a great price on 1996,"Got this for my 1996 GT Mustang. I wanted to protect my original steering wheel while it still has no cracks or damage, without spending a ton of money or worrying that a manual wrap job would look crappy. Although you need some muscle to put this on, it goes on fairly quickly and fits like a glove. It takes a little bit to get used to the 'thicker' steering wheel but I actually like it better. It looks good and protects, all for a decent price."
10599,2,Kinda Corny but entertaining,"I liked all of the characters in the movie and it was a decent story line, some of the things were just a little far fetched for me."
10679,2,Dog Eye Wash,I have a dog with chronic eye problems and use a lot of eyewash. This is a big bottle and I got it when I needed another item for Super Saver Shipping. It works well. I just need to enlarge the dropper tip hole.
10717,2,Children love all of these movies!,"This whole set of movies are great. The grand kids love them, but we love them too!"
10733,2,A Yellow Raft in Blue Water,"Long-held secrets and hidden truths are slowly revealed in this beautifully written book presented in three parts - each told through the eyes of a different generation of strong-willed Native-American women. As the plot of this intricate and emotional story unfolds, the reader gets the full impact of the lives of Rayona, Christine, and Ida - a triangle that is both strong as steel and fragile as glass.This was one of the best novels I have ever read, and would recommend it to older teens and adults of all ages. The impact of this story will stay with the reader for many years after the book is tenderly put away or passed on to an eager friend!"
10738,2,wyatt earp,"Back in college I made a book report on Wyatt Earp, after reading the book, I found out there was a movie. I first rented the vhs, and everything there was in the book, it was in the movie. Great performance by Kevin Costner and the entire cast. Great movie to learn about the greatest lawman ever in the country. Excellent movie to enjoy with the family"
10831,2,Wonderful story for Seth,"Nora has given Seth a great story and it was nice to see how he had grown up and what he had made of himself from his tough start in the first three books. It was wonderful to revisit Cam, Anna and his other brothers and their families, to see what they had done beyond their ""stories"" was great. I have two kids (6 & 1 1/2) and still managed to finish this in two days, it moves fast, keeps you interested and doesn't let you down."
10852,2,An all time fav,So glad I could get this original classic with Gregory Peck. And the price was great. It arrived on time too.
10903,2,Excellent Price & Service!,"I payed 32 bucks (including shipping) for this brand new, complete DVD series of the 11 year run of Married w/Children, and it was delivered the same week. Great deal! Highly recommended seller."
10906,2,Warning ...A bit different then expected...,"Everything is as described by the previous review. All the seasons are on two giant spindles protected by a cardboard on top of each spindle. Thought there would be a ""better"" version of episode list but there isn't. It is just a piece of paper glued on the box that you will have to peel off to actually see the list.Overall not bad for $40 bucks, but not super great either."
10932,2,Kitchen Timer,"Handy and easy to operate. Big readout so it can be read across the room. Magnetic back allows it to be placed on the refer door.Buy two or three of these, they are really great for all sorts of timing jobs!!!After using this for months, I wish I had ordered a second one.We fight over who uses this timer because the one on the stove is so hard to set. Handy for the grill, cause you can take it outside too."
10951,2,Carolina Moon,"I found this story to be a good read well up to Nora Robert's usual standards. Tory Bodeen grew up in an abusive home with a father who tried to beat her strange ""feelings"" out of her. She has psychic/empathic feelings and felt her best friend, Hope, being murdered at the age of 8. Tory returns to her home town to open a store in the area hoping to bring closure to the murder for herself. She becomes involved with Hope's older brother, Cade, and Hope's twin sister, Faith. With her return she stumbles on another murder out of the past and with research through an attorney friend discovers several other murders of slim, blonde, women who were the same age as Hope if she had lived and always in August the month of Hope's birthday. Her return is the catalyst for many of the town's citizens."
11001,2,Suitable for young readers of all ages,"Compiled, arranged and edited by Sara St. Antoine, Stories From Where We Live: The Great Lakes is a delightful and enthusiastically recommended anthology of stories, essays, and poems drawn from a diversity of talented authors, all of whom are celebrating the richness of daily life and the wilds of the Great Lakes region of North America. Suitable for young readers of all ages, these memorable tales and stories are enhanced with simple black-and-white illustrations to make the land, its creatures, and the people who saw and settled upon it come alive!"
11115,2,Welcome to the Outrageous and Contagious Style from Mr. Lif.,"Massachusetss MC Mr. Lif tears through 7 innovative tracks fortified by various underground dwellers such as Fakts One, paWI, EL-P of Company Flow and Spilled Acid Productions(check the stellar ""Pulse Cannon""). He also teams up with several independent mic-rippers such as Akrobatik, Insight, and T-Ruckus to create an overall pleasing EP. Lif's unique, raspy vocals filter through the mic ever-so-perfectly, his apocalyptic B-Boy stance makes a true underground enthusiast drool on his/her backpack. Big up. Highly recommended. Peace."
11170,2,Apt Title and Great for beginners...,"The recent hype on Pilates intrigued me and so I decided to try it out, thanks to the great reviews from the Amazon web-site. Yes, this is a great introduction to those who don't know anything about Pilates. I tried just watching the DVD the first time but found myself doing the moves on the couch itself. When I used a mat, I found that some of the initial moves were a lot harder and challenging. I felt very refreshed after the workout and surprisingly, a little sore the next day in a few places.So, pl. don't push yourself the first time although it may seem easy; just stick to the non-challenging moves and you will be fine. A great beginner DVD for pilates!!!"
11206,2,A Masterpiece,"This album is the greatest achievement of Diana Ross' career. Miss Ross sings in a way that she has ever in her career. From the opening track, ""No One Get's the Prize,"" to the title track and especially, ""Once In the Morning,"" every vocal is a thrilling surprise. The vocals on every track show that Ross can sing the way she's always demonstrated during her live performances, but seldom on records. This record is one of Ashford and Simpson's best production, along with Gladys Knight & the Pips', ""About Love."" If you are a new Ross fan, this is the record the have, in all it's remastered glory. Simply, a Masterpiece!"
11226,2,What's not to like?,"I cannot even begin to understand what people do not like about this film. Is it an epic? nah. It is funny? you bet it's funny. Maybe that's why so many people here have panned it. A lack of a sense of humor in the subtleties of humor. There is a lot of wry wit in this, with some fun characters, parodies of life, personal development stories, etc etc. In all, a broad stroke of paint on the canvas of life's problems and challenges. This will not go down as one of the most memorable of roles for either Brad Pitt of Julia Roberts, but must EVERY movie be judged by a performers' prior best works? Can't we just sit back and enjoy something for the fun of it? Too many of the reviews here seem tooooo overburdened by what the reviwer almost wishes what this movie could have been, instead of what it is -- a wry, subtle, humourous road/love epic. And enjoyable at that!"
11236,2,The Destroy a Rolls Royce,"This was the directorial debu for film legend Ron Howard he also stars in it along with borther Clint Howard and Maryion Ross makes an apperance in it(she was Maryion Cunningham on Happy Days)they destroy some of the best cars in the world in this film including a Rolls Royce,Porche and many more but I found staring Ron Howard it had a pit of a chessy feel to it and more of a happy-go-lucky feeling over hard core action but still a real neat film for any car fans"
11287,2,Mick Harte Was Here,"Mick Harte was one of the neatest kids you would ever want to meet. He went trick-or-treating as Thomas Crapper, the inventor of the modern day toilet. Mick Harte was 12 years old, and he had a sister named Phoebe. She was only 13 years old. Mick went 12 years and 5 months without ever falling off his bike. Then he had a tragic accident. Phoebe was in 8th grade, and Mick was in 7th grade when the accident happened. The last morning Phoebe saw Mick the siblings were fighting over a tattoo.I liked the book called Mick Harte Was Here because it was a sad and funny story put into a good book. At some parts, I laughed; at other places, I was crying."
11320,2,Under and Alone....fiction?,"Over all I really enjoyed this book...for entertainment purposes.Parts of the story line conflicted. I do believe that if discoverd he would have been killed. I don't believe for a second that he did 28 months with out ever doing drugs seeing how drugs were such a HUGE part of this chapter's life style. I also believe that IF the HAMC really wanted to, they would have wiped out the mongols just like they took care of the Rock machine in Canada. It seems to me the chapter he was with were a bunch of total loosers hell.......most didn't even have a decient motorcycle. I dont think that chapter would have survived anyways with Drugs distroying them.But like I said for an enjoyable read it is well written and I would recomend it, but dont think for a minute you will walk away with knowledge of 1% workings"
11440,2,I happened to like the book!,"I noticed that quite a number of people were complaining about the quality of The Butlerian Jihad. Many are saying that it can't hold a candle to the original books. My response to that is at least the damn thing is readable! I've read the first four Dune books and the characters are severely two dimentional. The futuristic babbling is to Dune what technobabble is to Star Trek. At least Star Trek uses it effectively. They've never had a whole episode dedicated to it. While reading the Dune series I couldn't have cared less about any of the characters! I have no idea why people have declaired this one of the greatest sci-fi series ever. I find the Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Andersen novels more rich and alive than any of the original Dune novels. If you want a good read, I recommend The Butlerian Jihad."
11492,2,great pen,"Great looking, great build quality.It writes fine, even after many years of owning it and not using it.Probably the nicest pen at this price."
11597,2,One of Le Guin's best,"Despite being less well-known than her Earthsea books or The Left Hand of Darkness, Dispossessed is one of Le Guin's best, a fine political allegory in SF form. The story revolves around the cultural clash of a member of an anarchist world encountering a society much like ours.(Side note: if you think anarchism means throwing bricks through Starbucks windows, you need to watch less TV. Anarchism is a political ""ism"" with as long a history as Marxism. The easiest way to convey it to an American is as a ""libertarian socialist"".)"
11614,2,Excellent CD,"I just received this CD and loved it, especially ""Is She Gone"", ""God Bless This Town"" and ""Special Girl"". There is a song for everyone. I highly recommend it. I love the way they sing in five-part harmony. If you would like to see the videos run the enhanced CD on your computer. I have known Todd Michael Sansom for the last 14 years. He's a country boy from Stanardville Virginia. And I also would like to thank Kenny Rogers Dreamcatcher Records for creating this dream of a group. Marshall Dyllon Enjoy The RIDE."
11646,2,Linksys WUSB11 Wireless-B USB Network Adapter,"This unit has worked flawlessly since we set it up. It was easy to install since it is external. It is also easy to move to another computer, if needed. We have enjoyed having it."
11651,2,Great for the money!,"Great dresser for the money, fairly easy to assemble. Only 4-stars because the handles are flimsy, I changed them out with some nice brushed nickel ones from Lowe's. Looks great, bought the matching night-stand too. I've had it for a good 3-4 months now, its holding up pretty well..."
11699,2,Great sight,"Got the sight in yesterday, installed in less than a minute. It's a major improvement over the stock sight just as everyone else has stated. Buy it! You can't go wrong with it."
11844,2,CLASS ACT!,"At the hotel when the video was aired, people just got up and danced, danced, danced. Haven't seen a video with a good beat and classy artist dancing tastefully in years. Keep it coming 'trend setters.'"
11879,2,Get Your Feet Wet,"This book is a good introduction into the world of Feng Shui. It's lighthearted approach makes it an easy read -- and it has succeeding in turning me on to studying the practice more seriously. (I felt that many other feng shui books are overwhelming and intimidating for beginners). The tongue-in-cheek humor gets a little tiring at times... but all in all, I did learn many principles that I started to apply right away.One suggestion to the author: an index would have been helpful."
11990,2,Best reading material ever !,This is the most informative book I've ever read and I believe that everyone should buy this book and have it near your bible for reference.
12002,2,Good Movie,It was a surprisingly good movie. It would have been great if it was available in English with optional subtitles.
12152,2,Far superior to the movie!,"This book was an excellent and enjoyable read. It flowed smoothly and was an unchallenging, pleasant and humourous read. I read it and then watched the movie. My advice would be to read the book and not bother with the novie; it has been seriously dumbed down for the sake of giving Meryl Streep more lines. The movie also loses much of the integrity displayed in the book which is quite thought-provoking on the subject of human behaviour in many areas, despite being light and airy in its approach. It does make you marvel at how materialistic and detached from reality some high-flying business persons really are. I felt happy to be ordinary when I had read it. Enjoy!"
12222,2,4 keeps getting better,"Ok so 3 ended with Georgina all preggo, and in this one some has a little one on the way as well. I am SO GLAD Jenny isnt in it much, she just looks like trash."
12328,2,Amazing,"One of my favorite movies. Despair, hate, violence, and trying to find out the meaning of life. David Thewlis does an incredible job as Johnny. Highly recommeded."
12353,2,Fun to Frolick in Anarctica!,"Clarissa's adventures are fun and funny--I laughed out loud several times. My favorite Clarissa moment was when, as a determined team leader for Snow Survival Camp, she valiantly led her blindfolded team to the designated flag. Unfortunately it was the pee flag (no outhouses in a frozen wasteland, folks), which she only discovered after tromping around in yellow snow.I read this book in one sitting. Clarissa and her two best friends, Delilah and Kate, are very likeable. It was worth the price of the book just to see three very girlie girls succeed in a harsh environment. I enjoyed Adventures of an Ice Princess very much and highly recommend it to readers who enjoy women's fiction."
12361,2,Performances make the movie,"As far as plot goes, this one is a little melodramatic and cliched, but the cast is so fantastic that it still makes the movie worth watching. Scott Caan especially created a very likable, earnest leading man, and Troy Garity is equally enjoyable. I found the love story to be a little hokey, but for this movie it is more of a means to the end for Johnny's (Caan) maturity."
12503,2,They're GRRRREAT!,"These noodles are almost a carbon copy of a snack that we ate while on holiday in Hawaii. They make a chicken stock with chunks of chicken, carrot, peas, ect.. I was very happy to have found these. Try them if you can."
12547,2,These work well,"These lights work well - especially for the money. But be careful when mounting because the housing is very thin, I broke 1 while mounting to support plate - Do Not hold by housing and twist to tighten."
12549,2,Finally!,"This set will have the new to DVD movies HIGH ANXIETY, ROBIN HOOD: MEN IN TIGHTS, SILENT MOVIE, THE TWELVE CHAIRS, and TO BE OR NOT TO BE. The set will also have BLAZING SADDLES, HISTORY OF THE WORLD -- PART ONE, and YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN."
12558,2,Hitchcock 'Owned',Sure it's over-the-top but it's also very good. There isn't a weak spot in the cast. The psychopathic killer is a personal favorite. Try to find all the Hitchcock film references. This movie won't disappoint.
12581,2,Wide Open Ending,"The mini-series/movie was really good. I thought that it was a typo when I saw how long it is. It is that long, though. Being that long, it tends to drag a bit, but overall, it was a wonderful story. The only thing that I didn't like about it was that the ending was left wide open and there is no sequel in site. This is supposedly based off of a book, but I had a heck of a time finding it online, let alone buying one."
12718,2,BIONICLES COOLEST GAME!,"This game is really cool.For peopl who are wondering if there are BOSS FIGHTS...YES there is!There are 5 bosses:HORND RAKSHI HEADEDSEPENT,ENERGISED PROTODERMIS ENTITY,LIVING WALL(X3)."
12836,2,Ponyo DVD/Bluray Combo,"AWESOME!!!My 3 yr old twins (boy/girl) love the colors and scenery of the movie. The story of love between two people beyond anything physical and without any selfish motives, transcends all age groups and was refreshing to see! Loved it from beginning to end!Service was great too. We didn't expect it as soon as it came but they got it to us in less than a week!"
12840,2,Liked the fan-pretty and functional,"The fan was delivered promptly, well padded in an additional cardboard box. The instructions were clear. The suspension method eliminates wobble and the ceiling does not have to be straight. When the fan is operating, it is almost noise-free. We did have to purchase pull chain extensions as the ones supplied are only a few inches long. We are happy with this purchase."
12866,2,Beautiful and Memorable Story,"This book is the greatest, most memorable book from my early childhood. The story is one of a colt that is forced to deal with sad circumstances. He has to deal with the loss of his parent, and in so doing becomes a greater and stronger individual. The writing in the book is heart-wrenchingly vivid. The pictures are done beautifully. I have read others that say the book is too depressing for children. I do not believe this is true. It is a deep story, one that will still be in the process of being understood as the child grows, but it is a story worth knowing and hearing. I plan to read this book to my children, and I can only hope that it leaves the same great and lasting impression on them that it did on me."
12893,2,Refreshing beauty,"A beautiful CD, with freshness and clarity.A well balanced selection of pieces and wonderfully produced, to show each instrument at its best.Accessible for a wide range of listeners, this collection has ""heart"" without being overly sentimental."
12918,2,Just a great watch for casual or filed use,"This is a great watch.When I am not at work i am wearing this watch. Super luminous dials, comfortable size and extremely high quality watch works make this ideal.I replaced the band with a black rubber sports band and this is my all time favorite for casual use every day."
12934,2,Don't think of the old showtrack.,"When I recieved the CD I couldn't wait to give it a play. Soon my baissed ears told me that I liked the old soundtrack much better. Eventually I give it a few more spins and then went to see the film.How glad am I, I did that, it made me enjoy the film much more and now I love the soundtrack. A good addition to my collection of sountracks and musicals. I'm sure it will also appeal to a younger audience.Give it a listen."
12944,2,A wonderful spiritual book,This is one of the best spiritual texts I have read along with Eckhart Tolle's writing. De Mello and Tolle both point us in the same direction of awakening. Anthony De Mello uses short little humorous stories to point to the reasons why we suffer. Awareness is a great little book to refer to from time to time. It is worth owning. The lessons and realizations it provide are priceless. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is sick of suffering.
12974,2,ONE OF HER BEST!!!,"This time around Latifah is as hot as ever in terms of lyrical prowess.The fault lays with the music.Side A of this cassette is great but some of the tracks on Side B however are from fair to good.The production was lacking some.This is most evident on the track 12 ""I DON'T KNOW"",where the music is weak and lyrics are good but are way too soft.If the music had been produced to fit the song perfectly[smoother pure r&b backing music],then the results would have been excellent instead of merely good. The excellent tracks are:#'s 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,10,and 11.Give this set a chance like I did because you will enjoy it. ALSO, she is working on her new LP. It is supposed to be great. BUY IT when it comes out.SIGNED 17 YEAR OLD MUSIC FAN."
13028,2,Comfy but warm,"These shoes are comfy! I wear a 7 1/2 and bought an 8, fits great! I wore them for about 45 minutes in 75 degree weather and my feel were clammy after. These will be great from Fall winter and early morning yard work."
13078,2,Great Books of the Western World,"This is another collection I have longed to find for years and years. It now sits on the shelf in my library and I look forward to a long winter of reading these treasures. Great service, great condition -- thank you."
13144,2,Special Features,"Hello,it's me again.I'm here to specify the special features. *The Art of Horror featurette * 11 minutes of deleted/extended footage * 2 trailers The end."
13159,2,All You Wanted To Know About The Amish,"A very interesting and informative look into the history of the Amish religion. Their trials and tribulations to acheive the simple life. The way they were treated in their native country and the way that they were accepted here in America. Their fight to keep what they believe in as a way of life is awe inspiring. The way they have been treated and they can still be non- conformist and non- violent is a tribute to their religious upbringing. A very good read and an eye opener to these ""plain people""."
13254,2,Get Inside the Poker Mind Now!,"The book is a classic. It is great addition to any poker library. It deals with many important issues that affect poker players today. The controversial ""AQ test"" essay alone is worth the cover price.It is written by the real deal, a pro player who understands the important complex interrelationships between emotions, tactics, and theory and puts it all together in one book.See you at the tables. Im hoping you don't actually get this book."
13273,2,Authentic sound,This is one of the only CDs on the market that doesn't have that annoying background techno beat. Just pure steelpan. It sounds great!
13331,2,Inspirational Introduction to Will Durant,"This was my first introduction to Will Durant and it did not dissapoint. It was a very quick and easy read as well as being both a great historical refresher and a great insight into the mind of this legendary figure. The book includes top ten lists of the greatest thinkers, poets, and peaks of human progress among others. Durant's commentary is very insightful and his selection methodology is well reasoned. This has inspired me to read more of his works and texts from his Top 100 Best Books for Education."
13359,2,AMAZING SHOES!,"Good Morning! I bought these for my Birthday Weekend, and dancing with my friends. They worked wonderfully! They're ONLY a 4 inch heel, (surprising from Jessica Simpson), but they didn't hurt 5 hours into wearing them. I LOVE these HEELS!"
13367,2,A great record,"Wallington live at the Cafe Bohemia has always been one of my favorites. I had it on vinyl and then on cd on OJC as well as this release. I am grateful that the Spanish pirate company found other songs that were not on the original OJC disc. I wish that OJC put out all of the music on their own disc. Wouldn't we all rather have the original tape from which to make the disc?Anyway, this is one of the finest bebop records that any of us will hear. It does not have the raw edge that Charlie Parker's live material shows, and it even shows a kind of counterpoint that one might expect in baroque music. This record really swings. Byrd's soft attack just opposed with McLean's slightly sour sounding biting attack is really fun.Get it while it lasts."
13384,2,GOOD,I BOUGHT THIS PRODUCT FOR MY DDP KIT AND I HAVE A WATER PURIFIER SO I CAN DROP A TAB IN MY WATER AND DRINK IT WITH NO WORRIES
13413,2,"Upbeat, Fun Girl-Garage-POP!","They may look tough, but these 5 gorgeous dolls from Oslo, Norway knock out some really sweet sounds. With guitars, drums & a powerful Hammond Organ they do tunes of love, romance, space travel & big monsters all rolled into one. From the hard (""Happy Days"") to the soothing (""Interstellar"") their music draws you in. They even turn a song about a ""Giant Godzilla"" into a love song in a manner that reminds me of a Japanese girl-group. (One minor error: tracks 4 & 6 have their titles reversed) For more, I highly recommend their 7"" EP, DESTINATION TEMPTATION, with 4 songs not included here (including my fave song of theirs, ""Star"") and some of the coolest packaging I've ever run across on a 45!"
13417,2,Well-Done,"I have no opinion. However, I would suggest this movie along with the two others in The Twilight Saga. I believe a younger generation will appreciate it the most."
13437,2,Twists and Turns Galore!,"Pretties, the second book in a fantastic series. I would reccomend reading the whole series and also getting a friend to read along with you. Me and my friend read this series side by side. With all of the colorful and amazing characters, complex relationships, romance, plus endless twists and turns caused us to chat all the time about it. Speculating what we think would happen all along the way. This is a wonderful read that will keep you guessing and perfect for those who are fantasy lovers. If this book ends up as something you enjoy then you may also try anything by Garth Nix or Phillip Pullman. Happy Reading and I hope you enjoy."
13566,2,"realistic, gut-wrenching, tight story with plenty of action","I picked up Keeper out of curiosity and was hooked from the first chapter. It read quickly, but not for lack of substance. The plot was put together well, leaving you guessing right up to the end. The characters, especially Kodiak, were not unbelievable supermen, and were susceptable to pain and anguish. Rucka's story of a young man doing an ugly job was a great one, and a great debut. It wasn't just a mystery/suspense story. It also handled an extremely sensitive issue with the professionalism of a seasoned author. I applaude him for that and rank him right up there with Robert Parker and Ross Macdonald. I am anxiously awaiting his next book, Finder, and hope for many more Atticus Kodiak novels"
13599,2,"Awesome book. Thrilling, Suspenseful","This is a crazy story about one of America's most dangerous serial killers. Ted Bundy was one messed up soul and Ann does an amazing job of telling the story from her eyes (and relationship with BundY), as well as reporting what really happened according to police and the public. A great read."
13691,2,very good intro to Islam,This book can serve a very good introduction to Islam. I highly recommend this book for people wanting to learn about middle east and islam
13756,2,A famous book,"This is a well known classic written more than 60 years ago that even our commonplace and leftist noise dominated cultural environment could not silence, therefore it needs no recommendation. Without any professional gobble-dy-gook, in a language and with a argumentation immediately comprehensible to anybody, as well as with the uninhibited boldness of a child, Popper unveils two idols, two big enemies of freedom: Plato and Marx, and puts them where they belong.Efraim Israel"
13923,2,"Horns, guitars, and an electric violin, they had it all!","I was casually looking through the rack at the local drug store (sometime in 1970)when I spotted the coolest album cover I'd ever seen. I bought the record for the cover and have never regreted it. Jerry Goodman (in his pre-Mahavisnu Orchestra/ Dixie Dregs days) plays up a rock and roll storm on the electric violin, outshining even his contemparies Papa John Creech (Hot Tuna) and David LaFlamme (It's A Beautiful Day). The rest of the band shines on instrumentation ranging from flute to banjo, all in the same song. From the opening note of Green Slice to the last chord of Unranian Circus the boys from Chicago blaze a trail yet to be followed. If you liked the Al Kooper version of BS&T, the CTA album, and Canadian hornmeisters Lighthouse (One Fine Morning) you will LOVE Dinosaur Swamps. If you buy just one 70's CD this year, make it this one!"
13928,2,"Great diapers, easy on the environment",I was afraid they would look too brown but they are just fine and work great!
13983,2,Wonderful!,"Every Little Step is a superlative documentary that took me back to all those years I spent in dance studios in New York, and all the dancers that I knew. Some went on to tremendous success, and some packed it in for more mundane jobs in the real world. The struggle to be the best that I could be touched every aspect of my life.Every Little Step is much more than a ""making of"" documentary. It's the story of our lives, even if you've never danced a step. Brilliant."
14000,2,There's a reason they call it Great,"Stop being retroactively pissed at your high school freshman English teacher and just admit it: The Great Gatsby is a damn fine novel. This is the third time I've read it (first and third for fun, the second for the aforementioned English teacher, who did indeed manage to suck the joy out of it), and I'm still struck by two things:1) That Daisy Fay is easily the most contemptible female character in literature since Catherine Earnshaw.2) That Jordan Baker's story of how most people (including herself) are ""careless drivers"" truly shaped my worldview growing up. She ain't wrong.Get over the acne flashbacks and give this one another chance."
14080,2,Best movie ever !!,This is the kind of film that Hollywood needs to put out more often. This is also Tim Robbins Best. Robert Altman hits the Bull on the Behind with this Winner. Solid great Cameos. Very well casted. The Pros&Cons of the Biz.
14093,2,Great!,it in the wrapper and shipped fast! My son really loved the movie and I try to buy him new ones. The price was very helpful thanks alot!
14129,2,The Wiremold story making Lean History,"If you are looking to get the best advices about how lean can transform a business and its profound implications within a company and its market, please read this book. You will understand how leadership and lean knowledge at the top is of paramount importance, how humor make lean transformation simpler, and how, besides the production floor, Lean affects product development, accounting and can make profitable an acquisition faster. I strongly suggest this book to everyone in an executive position."
14143,2,Good Quality,Item was quality and arrived in perfect condition. No problem with shipping. Optical adapter works perfect on my E17 FiiO. Better than going straight in. Happy with my order.
14144,2,he's my man,"ah, gilad, what can i say. first of all he is easy on the eyes. second of all he has great workouts that go beyond the old school aerobics, i hate those with the routines and grapevines and all, i have two left feet and no patience. gilad has great kickboxing and weight workouts that i love. this one is another great addition to my growing gilad collection!"
14177,2,I recommend it - get Amazon to send it!,"I was delighted to find this book. Rather than quoting Nash's verse at length, Parker uses quotes quite judiciously to illustrate various points he's making. This made me want to read more of Nash's collections, which I feel is an indicator of a good biography.I thought the book was well-paced and engaging. I'm not a big fan of biographies (I tend to find them overwrought and melodramatic), but enjoyed this quite a bit."
14220,2,I recommend it,Kids loved it . . . when they're happy - I'm happy!8 more words?!!!! What more can I say?!!!
14330,2,not bad viven leigh,"i watched this verison of anna karenin right after i watched the greta garbo verison. i like that it extends the story in the movie, but i wished it showed anna having vronsky's baby(alive),levin and kitty's love story and the aftermath of anna's suicide. oh, well. onto the next movie verison of anna karenina."
14338,2,Unfairly disregarded album!,"Why this album is considered to be bad?Well,may be only after comparison with the other ones.OK, but just listen to it once again without maiking this comparison.I think the album itself is very good - it has its highlights: ""Holy smoke"", ""Assassin"" and ""Bring your daughter to the slaughter"" are songs which differ so much and create so different mood. Bruce's voice is so cruel, guitars are uncomparably rough.In which of the other Maiden albums you could see that?"
14339,2,Ground Control to Major Tom,"My how time flies. Duncan Jones, son of David Bowie, is now a film director. The man who fell to earth comes to mind. Very interesting story where the plot comes before the technology. If you like tension, dialogue, and thought provoking scenes, this is a film for you. I hope we'll hear more from Duncan and maybe his famous Dad will pop up soon."
14364,2,Nice gun,"This is a nice nail gun for the price. I have used Senco all of my life and like them better than this one, but I wanted a less expensive option for finishing my basement. This has worked great so far. The only thing I don't like is the plastic tip. It looks like a part that will fail at some time."
14370,2,The costs of war,"This CD, with lyrics by Robert Service, who witnessed the horrors of war up close, and music by Navy veteran Joe McDonald, is a stark reminder of the true costs of war. It couldn't be more timely."
14375,2,Another new favorite author,"I am usually on the lookout for books that are hard to put down, and this is an author I will seek out again."
14383,2,When Boxing&Fundamentals Mattered,this is the Kind of Boxing Match that many Fighters now&ahead should watch.this shows the Complex&Chess like Vibe involved in Boxing.Ali used Rope a Dope to Defeat Foreman something that many a Fighter wouldn't dare do.because with the Power of Forman's Punches chances are they would have been knocked thru the Ropes.Ali made a Major Statement with this Fight that Forever Crowned Him into His Legacy.You gotta See it what a time Period&Fight.
14405,2,Very good CD!,"Being a fan of Megadeth, it was only natural for me to find out about this side project of Dave Mustaine's. I ordered it and though the vocals are not sung by Mustaine, they are still great nonetheless. For any fan of Megadeth, this is a must have, as it is very similar to their music (post Rust In Peace--less noise, more understandable lyrics). The quality is excellent. 11 tracks, all of which are good. My favorite would have to be ""The Day the Music Died"". Get this CD!"
14463,2,Humorous and Lovable Movie,"This is an hilarious movie with romance and love at the core. It depicts the story we have come to expect with retiring Presidents, but the writers did very well with keeping to the theme of the movie."
14470,2,Better than I thought,I bought this music box for my 4 yr old daughter. She loves it !! It is perfect for her little hands to hold with out dropping. She loves that it lights up when she opens the lid. I am very happy with what I got for the price and I will more then likely buy more from the collection.
14540,2,Fantabulous!,"texas has to be one of the bestest bands in the world. the first time i sampled it at the cd shop, i knew it was a fantastic album. it's been four months and i STILL love it. texas forever!"
14606,2,Nice Nice and Nicer,yo dis game is tough no b-ball game can beat this who kares about wat others think buy this Peace
14632,2,Pascal= gold,"Pascal Obispo is one of the most amazing performers of our time. He has a potent and gorgeous voice, his songs are always amazing and he has a sound that will stay in your head even when you are not listening to him. The fact that he sings in French should not stop anyone from enjoying his sound and his beautiful voice. Who knows? He might inspire you to learn French!"
14636,2,EXCELLENT!!,GREAT MOVIE!!!The chemistry between Clooney & Lopez is the best I have ever witnessed on screen!!! This is J.Lo's best film too date!!! She needs more strong sassy roles lk this!!!!!I love this movie!!!One of the best movies ever made!!!
14661,2,Joe Black,This is an awesome take on how death and life can change in a blink of an eye and it keeps you guessing what will happen next.
14666,2,A Modern Classic,"I consider this to be one of the best movies I have ever seen. It took me by surprise...I had seen the DVD in stores numerous times and never even considered renting or buying it; then a friend told me about it and loaned me the Ultimate Edition DVD. The acting was superb, the storyline very credible. I am not usually emotionally moved to tears by movies, but this one had me in tears at the end. There was not one actor in this movie that failed to impress me, and that's saying a lot these days. The film is very allegorical, and one scene that really got me was when Anthony Hopkins' character knocks on ""death's door."" I found myself thinking about the ramifications of that... The sound track was also very moving and includes some great old songs. The Ultimate DVD also has the old B&W original ""Death Takes a Holiday,"" as well as some very enjoyable bonus materials. A well put together package. I highly recommend this DVD."
14668,2,Real close to a 5 star!!,"I was expecting this movie to be sooo hilarious, it would be what I would call ""stupid funny""...but what I got instead was a really good movie, with a really great message. I have never heard of Tyler Perry before this movie, or his character Madea for that matter, but this movie made me want to see more of her!! Colorful characters, that you end up caring about, really funny, and really touching as well. For those that are looking for something that has a great balance of fun and feeling, this movie is for you!!!"
14680,2,Wow skills!!,"My son has Ot issues with hand movements, and this is perfect and fun!!! he loves to see the animals inside and he can open the locks and put them back!!! Great for motor skills, also!!"
14745,2,Super Sticky Once or Twice,"Super Sticky PostItNotes are super sticky, but they do not seem to be super sticky more than once.I use PostItNotes for outlining and project management, and I need to place, remove, place, and remove my PostItNotes over and over. I just don't feel that these will work as well as my regular PostItNotes.-----BUT-----They will stick and do stick to the un-ordinary better than the regulars!!!"
14747,2,"Great movie, keeps you guessing","We watched (my wife and I) this movie several times. Each time we have come up with a different conclusion on ""What happened next"" after the movie ended. We never could agree. :-) This movie is intriguing and will keep you guessing on the conclusion. One of my most favorite movies."
14749,2,Fine Surreal Film,"Terry Gilliam at his best. I love the sylishness of surreal films, it's just they tend to have negative subject matter a lot so I'll try to just watch one here and there. This one is Amazing, I love the loop and the craziness of the film - you can really feel it.Gilliam is also really good at period scenes - I loved the feel of his ancient Greece warrior battle in Time Bandits and this movie has a brief World War I scene that I thought was cool, too.Great if you love surreal films and probably good for a change of pace if you've mainly been watching mainstream films recently."
14825,2,Oh my gosh! See this...!,"I thought for a long time that Latter Days was my most favorite movie until I saw Maurice for the very first time, in 2007, a full twenty years after it had wrapped. I don't know if I can say enough nice things about this moving, uplifting, optimistic movie. This movie is really about risking everything we know for what we believe in with no guarantees for a happy ending. Whether or not you are gay, I think if you've ever been faced with difficult choices, or have ever been in love in an impossible situation, you will find something to appreciate in this one. It had me cheering."
14826,2,Simply Beautiful,"What a lovely & well made movie. I never would have thought a scene of a chaste 2 seconds first hug between Hugh Grant & James Wilby could be so hot! All of the actors did a great job of conveying the deep, passionate emotions narrated in the book while behaving within the Edwardian convention of conduct. There are definitely some passionate scenes that I have rewinded over & over again because they are so romantic! I would highly recommend the book as well - it is amazingly relevant a century later."
14880,2,Buyer Beware,"Five stars for the movie. However, the product description for the Blu-ray edition states that the film will be presented in widescreen and not the original screen ratio. In other words, information will be cropped from the top and bottom, violating Welles's composition. Bad idea."
14888,2,Excellent Blu-Ray...,"...the film will last forever, and ever, and ever, and ever, and ever, and ever, and ever, and ever, and...(now I have reached the minimun of words to submit. ""Hecha la ley, hecha la trampa"", they say in spanish.."
14941,2,Fit nicely,I used the fitting guide and a measuring tape to get the right size. I like to wear them to school clinicals. They're also great on days I sit a lot.
14944,2,My House in Umbria,"Another Italian travel film and seeing is believing, the house is a beautiful landscaped (after work) and like the old days. A wonderful film for travelers."
14970,2,A rare first hand account,"Accepting that such old books (accompanied by countless explanatory footnotes) are never a really easy read, this one is a fascinating story of how the English visited Maluku in the early 17th century and looked on while the Dutch and the Portuguese fought each other there.Note that there is a new reprint edition available at www.elibron.com !"
14977,2,My all-time favorite vitamins - and no gluten!,"I've been using the Prenatal One and Women's OneRainbow Light Womens One, Just Once Multivitamin, 150 Tablets(not at the same time) for about 3 years now and I will never use a different multi-v. These pills are on the large size, but I don't have a problem with it. I can definitely feel a difference in my body when I skip a few days of these. Plus, I'm gluten intolerant and am always worried about gluten being present as a binding ingredient in medications. I've recommended this brand to many friends and got my husband hooked on the Men's OneRainbow Light Men's One Multi, 150-Count"
15040,2,For the die-hard Bjork fan.....,"Ok, Yes, This is by for the most shocking Bjork to date.. At first I hated this album..Although, after listening to it several times I still get lost in her voice and her music.. Sometimes I feel like I am listening to this album underwater.. All in all..I still go to that place when I listen to Bjork's voice...and its a wonderful place to be....."
15064,2,One of the best Halo games,"I really enjoy playing this. I really only purchased this game for the campaign mode so I could see what mainly happened between Combat Evolved and Halo 3. Halo 2 was a major step forward for the franchise, and perhaps one of the best."
15071,2,great game,"This game came just as described and in and came whe it said it would, Halo 2 is great my son plays it all the time."
15076,2,In Freedoms Cause,"I highly reccommend G.A. Henty's In Freedom's cause to anyone age 10 and up who likes to read historical fiction. William Wallace, Robert the Bruce, and a ficticious charactor, Archibald Forbes, take the leading roles in fighting battles to stop the powerful English from taking over Scotland. This book is very closely based on factual hiistorical events. When England is very close to taking over scotland, William Wallace and Robert the Bruce fight overwhelming odds to get back their homeland."
15111,2,Excellent!!,"So pleased with the product, as well as the service! The toilet paper holder is so substantial, was easy to install, looks terrific in our powder room. Quality workmanship, great product! Highly recommend -- Thanks so much!!"
15130,2,Great workout earphones,"Great workout earphones, stays put and withstands all the sweating I do! Only wish the cord was so squirmy."
15196,2,Tony M: Prince Caspian,"The Dwarf Trumpkin tells the children (Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy)the story of Prince Caspian and how he escaped the castle of Miraz for fear of his life. With the help of Aslan,(the lion)and the children, Caspian defeats Miraz and became the new king of Narnia."
15227,2,Great Read!,"Having grown up in New England, many of the names mentioned in ""The Brothers Bulger"" were common in the everyday editions of the local newspapers. But, unlike the coddling that papers such as the Boston Globe have done over the years, this book really hits the brothers hard, especially the ""corrupt midget"" himself, none other than Billy Bulger. Great read - hope that this isn't Howie Carr's first and last book. Well worth the money!"
15234,2,No one does the right thing,"This is a stone classic that explores the dynamic of race relations, finally, inevitably, exploding into an incident quite like real life in New York. Lee makes Bed-Stuy look almost inviting here, shooting his sets in a golden reddish glow, and the frayed brownstone apartments in colorful hues, all against a classic hiphop soundtrack. Moments when real humans would have exploded are made to seem a little unreal here when only heated words are exchanged, but not blows. The Italian pizza shop owners are quite realistic, even if their shop is way more quaint and clean that it would probably be in real life. This is a stylized version of reality. The late 80s haircuts are a hoot, as are the boomboxes, pay phones and Flashdance clothing styles. When Mooky turns on his employer and tosses a trash can through the window during a riot is the pivotal moment in the film. Was this the right thing to do? That's the question. There is more than one answer. Watch."
15307,2,Tiny,"Toy looks great (paint and posture is spot on). The only problem I had, and this is my fault, is that the size is very small compared to the others in our collection. Check out the sizes before you start buying these when they are on sale. I clicked 3 different ones that were on sale, and I didn't bother to check that they were in the same size category, so this one looks little silly next to the big trex and spinosauraus."
15326,2,Love it!!!,"I've owned this speak for over a year. The sound is so amazing with such a small size. This is also good for outdoor, even when turn up the volume, sound quality doesnt change. Love it II"
15336,2,One of the Better Ones,"I rather enjoyed this book. The author does a good job telling a story that is rather depressing and scary. Given the large amount of book in this class, his one stands out becuase of the writing. He have a very good flow through out the book and he is a master at describing the location and people involved. If you are to read a true crime book this is one of he better ones out there."
15347,2,A nice grown up lip color.,"NOT a gloss. Not for Barbie. This is grown up stuff. I have it in both Indian Red and Sayonara. Sayonara is a very nice true pink- a bit of brown in it that prevent it from looking like a 12 year old and best of all- no glitter or frost. Indian Red is what it sounds like, a dark, earthy red, deep enough to warrant some guts to pull it off.These stains aren't as long wearing as some products, but they are so light- so heavily pigmented, they allow for control. Meaning, you can have a light or heavy hand with them- and even put them over or under other products easily."
15359,2,love for the washington squares,"The Washington Sqaures winning, dry spoof of beat hipsterism was much appreciated. At their worst the Squares were much too honorific of Kerouac and the Beats, but their tight harmonies & songs were really enjoyable. It's hard to imagine a group like this getting signed today.I heard Daylight the other day and it brought me back to the time I had this album on vinyl. Even if you only listened to ""You are not alone"" and ""Daylight"" thousands of times for the rest of your life (which I will) this would be worth whatever anyone wanted for it.The Squares deserved so much success, but unfortunately never found an audience for their smart talent. Their appearance(s?) on MTV before it became a channel to push product provided a few laughs. I was saddened recently to learn that Paskow had died.Best to you Agnelli & Goodkind!"
15418,2,Simply untouchable,"One of the greatest cd's ever. Sade has a voice that is so wonderful and sexy she could sing about the time you broke down by the side of the freeway with a flat tire and you'd think you had a great time.Every song on this ""best of"" cd is worth listening to over and over.Sade gets into your mind and heart and soul with her voice, this cd is a must have."
15443,2,Love it,"I bought this mixer to make sourdough bread, I typically make bread in a food processor, but sourdough yeast quickly dies in high heat so I bought this. It's perfect, my bread comes out soft on the inside, crusty on the outside, I can't ask for more. Make sure to knead your bread on setting 4, I tried setting 2 as the manual says but all it does is swirl the dough around not doing much. It's great for cookies and cakes too, I'm not much of a baker but I hope to be because now I have no excuse.I also got my rebate back in about a month. I got the magazine rebate of $14.95 as well."
15449,2,Love this item,Great great mixer - I am sure it will last forever....I've already made twenty different kinds of cookies for the holidays with ease.
15453,2,Great for Making Bread,"I was worried because some reviews talked of a part breaking when mixing bread, but further research showed that KitchenAid had fixed that problem. I have owned my KitchenAid for 8 months, made countless whole grain breads and I love it! Had a problem with the dough hook releasing, but called KA and they had me fix it with a drop of oil-and they were so nice. What a great company!"
15477,2,fantastic!!!,I love this mixer!! I started with the kitchenaid 4 1/2quart mixer which was great but I was making a wedding cake and needed a bigger mixer. I mixes an amazing amount of batter. It does have a more metalic sound than my other mixer. I got the meringue color and it is beautiful. It has a pearly finish. The picture does not do it justice.
15481,2,kitchenaidkp26m1xnp mixer,"i like this kitchenaid mixer it heip me a lot bake wery quick and is easy to wash .i will recomend this to friend ,every woman should hawe it at kitchen"
15555,2,Top album,"To me, as a new fan, this is Thunder's best album. I like it from beginning to end and to me there are no fillers, just great songs from start to finish. I'm glad I had the chance opportunity to come across these guys on YouTube, and have since become a serious fan. May never get to see them live, but I'm glad to be able to hear their music - good solid hard rock with a bit of blues and funk thrown in for good fun. Even my wife likes them! Stand out tracks - title track and ""Andy Warhol Said"", and all the rest are pretty darn good as well."
15573,2,Great product!!,"So I never ever wrote a review until now...The reason I love this product is because I have the WORSE colon issues; doctors kept doing test after test after test and did nothing but keep giving me different kind of pills. After months and months of fruastration with the doctors and taking pills that barely worked. I decided to do my own research and what I found was either surgery or go to someone different. Surgery would be my last resort, so I did more research and landed on Oxy Powder. Being skeptical at first because of past experience, I decided to just try it. I have been using this product for almost 2 months now. Every night that I take these pills and the next morning I go bathroom. I feel great! No more bloating, tummy is flat, and I am actually going to the bathroom on a regular basis."
15579,2,Fair Portrayal,"The four-part documentary is well done, breaking the phenomenon that is modern China up into its 4 vital parts and examining them closely. The representation is fair, and each segment is well-paced. The bonus disc - the Great Wall, is also well recounted... except for the actors speaking with a fake Chinese accent: why not hire English speaking Chinese for the parts?"
15684,2,Great for what it is intended for!,"I haven't had an accounting course in 10 years, this book provides questions and problems as would be on the CLEP exam. It is a great application study guide but you will need a college text book. I used my old text book from 10 years ago to assist with my preparation. This book won't teach you accounting but it does help prepare you for the test."
15688,2,Can't get along without it,"I was recently ""relieved"" of my CD collection and am now starting to rebiuld. I am starting with my favorite ""First Base"", by Babe Ruth. I bought this album almost twenty years ago, and I can't get along without it. To me, the song ""Wells Fargo"" is one of the best songs I have EVER heard (and I've heard a lot!). I've never heard a song that says ""crank me up as loud as your stereo will go, rattle the windows and dance till you collapse!"" like that song. Hahn's vocals, Shacklock's guitar, and oh, that saxaphone! I love the way that song fades into the quiet brilliance of ""Runaway"", which proves, along with ""King Kong"",""Joker"", and ""The Mexican"" That this was a band of true musicianship, versatility, and depth. It's a pity that this band never got it's due, but I'm glad that I know about arguably the best kept secret in Rock and Roll, Babe Ruth."
15714,2,Very cute set but..,This is a really cute set with lids but there is no proper packaging for this at all. Buyer has no protective bubble wrap or wrapping paper. Received 2 ceramic bowls (half the set) that were completely cracked and broken and unusable. Why not take some time to properly package these delicate ceramic bowls.
15730,2,Miss Read,great story So sad miss claire died but knew it was going to happen sometime looking forward to other books!
15747,2,"Not bad, but could use a better squeaker",My dog loses interest in it fairly quickly because it's hard to make squeak. But it is durable- he tries to tear it apart and hasn't yet.
15765,2,one of the better seasons,"i thought the series decreased in quality and enjoyability a bit over seasons 2 and 3, even though it was still worth watching, but season 4 took it back up a notch. anybody who enjoyed this series at all will be very likely to be pleased with season 4. i am sorry to see this series end."
15781,2,Pure classic,Watch it every Christmas. Such a classic. Never gets old. Never goes out of style. Will pass onto my younger generations.
15843,2,Good List of Job Descriptions,"If you have ever worked in a resteraunt before, then most of the first half or so of this book will be a little boring. There were some helpful hints here and there, but a lot of the broad concepts I already knew. For example, dating co-workers can lead to problems, work fast but don't get careless, etc.The part of this work that was really useful for me was the job descriptions. I did some searching on the Internet and could find a list that is as good as this book. There are listings for every position that I have heard of and there are descriptions of the job conditions and skills required for the job and (most important to me) standard pay."
15848,2,Perfect music for when you are mad at the world!!,"I had been borrowing this CD from a friend for about the longest time now, and I finally went out and bought it. It hasn't left my CD player in my car since. This the perfect music for when you are mad at the world and need to get your mind off of it!! Perfect road rage music too!!!!"
15891,2,It grows on you,"The very first time I saw this movie was on television where they aired a special 190 minute version which contained important scenes and a more detailed introduction that makes the movie a lot easier to understand. With out a doubt this has to be one of the greatest sci-fi movies ever made visually. I have seen this movie countless times and each time I am amazed by the special effects. I gave this movie 4 stars and not 5 because you have to watch it more than once to understand it. There is just too much going on in this movie than can be taken in the first time you watch it. I also highly suggest watching the extended version to get a far better understanding. If you like to let your imagination go free, you will love this movie as it will become one of your favorite movies ever as it has for me."
15910,2,These are the best flip flops I have ever owned,I have owned a pair of Island Slipper Men's flip flops for almost 20 years and worn them every summer. I have been waiting for them to wear out so that I could justify buying a new pair. Actually I didn't realize that I could buy them online. Other than a little wear on the sole and some spots where they have conformed to my feet they are like new. The are also the most comfortable pair of flip flops or sandals that I have every worn.
15939,2,Outstanding,Barbra Streisand makes anyone she sings with sound like gold. Which is exactly what her voice is liquid gold.
15991,2,Great Music,Great collection of cheerful tones influenced by the orient. Listening to them remindes me of being in a friendly Chinese village of long ago.
16045,2,Little Fox Goes to the End of the World,"Little Fox is tired of having to play in the same area day after day. She wants to travel to the end of the world. When her mother asks about the end of the world, Little Fox tells her of the many dangers and problems that she will have to face to get there. From deep forests to the island of the One-eyed Cats, Little Fox is determined to make it. Her mother is frightened, but Little Fox explains how she will overcome each of these conflicts. Will Little Fox make it to the end of the world and back home safely?This was a great book, and I recommend it to anyone looking for a fun short story. The illustrations correspond wonderfully with the storyline. This is a quick and easy read. Enjoyable for children of all ages."
16060,2,Pardon the puns....,"This movie would be a great item in a time capsule from the '60s. The hair, the fashions, the music, Jim Backus... What kid wouldn't fantasize about living in ""The Green Onion?"" The only part I can do without is when Tony Randall squawks out that whiny rendition of a love song to Janet Leigh. I would echo drummer Marvin's reaction, ""That really turns me off."" Oh, well, here goes... I remember ""catching"" this movie on TV when I was a kid, home sick from ""school."" Every time I watch it, I am swept away in a ""Wave"" of nostalgia. Many of the cast members went on to have a ""whale"" of a career, including Richard Dreyfuss. Kay Cole, who plays Lorrie, later appeared in the original Broadway cast of ""A Chorus Line,"" and Gary Tigerman (brother Tommie) is a well-known author of sci-fi novels. This movie is just good, clean fun."
16077,2,good historical fiction,"Would've been great to read this book while learning about the Revolutionary War as a kid. Makes it come alive. Instead, I felt the need to refresh my memory of historical facts. Also read ""My Brother Sam Is Dead""."
16112,2,What An Incredible Storyteller!,"This is one of the most entertaining books I have ever read. I've read it a few times and always find it fascinating. Whether all of these stories of Henri Charriere (""Papillon"") are true, I don't know. I only know he is one heckuva storyteller.The amount of ups-and-downs in Charriere's years of imprisonment and escapes are just mind-boggling. Told in the first-person narrative, ""Papi"" tells it all simply and colorfully.If you are seeking a great adventure book, you can't wrong with this."
16137,2,Wonderful,"ILove it. it's great, One of the best movies out there. Glad I four it on Amazon for such a great price"
16209,2,Nice Guide...add a few more pages and it would be perfect,"This guide has all of the critical stuff you need as a renter of this type of aircraft. You have to be careful to make sure you are looking at the right charts though, be it for the A1 model or the C1. The only gripe I have is that there are like 5 key pages from the Operating Manual in the plane that they should've put in this book. For those that want to go photocopy those pages out of the POH to make this book complete (this only applies to the A1 model): they are 5-4 (Cruising Performance), 5-5 (Stall Speeds), 5-12 (Climb Performance during Balked Landing), 6-4 (Weighing Report), 6-8 (Weight & Balance Diagram). There are a few other minor things that could be done for the next revision, but all in all, a great book, especially for this price."
16233,2,"Redwall was a terriffic, amusing book","I am a 12 year old reader and I belonged to a book group. One of the books that was chosen to be read was Mossflower, a book in the Redwall series. I enjoyed the book immensely and immediately bought Redwall so I could continue the series. I think Redwall was the best of the series. The way Jacques writes is incredibly interesting and I loved how he wrote in such great detail. Redwall is a book for all ages, and I think even adults would enjoy it."
16243,2,An Insightful Interpretation,"I find it amazing that two film makers could produce two such different works based on the same source, and both be so successful. Olivier's and Branaugh's version of Shakespeare's Henry V are both very much of their time. Olivier's was of necessity very much a pro-war piece, while Branaugh had the luxury of emphasizing the horrors of war aspects. The beauty of this is that they both are valid interpretations of Shakespeare's original. I have seen hundreds of productions of Shakespeare in my day, both on stage and in the theater, and this is one of the best. It is definitely the best of Branaugh's adaptations, although I very much liked his Hamlet as well."
16285,2,Pushing Tin was great!,"If you are looking for a different movie, with no violence and some good humor, then rent Pushing Tin. Pushing Tin is about an air traffic control who is going through a mid life crisis. This movie is really neat and different. And it focuses on something other then violence."
16298,2,Enchanting!!!,"This is a momentous new version to the classic, ""Cinderella"". The characters are jocose and intresting. Ella is a 15-year-old girl who is cursed under a fairy's ""gift"" of oedience. Thus, Ella must obey any command directed towards her. Even though it may sound like an unusual curse, it's amusing how Ella copes with anything she endeavors. When I first came upon this book, I thought it wouldn't be any different to the original tale. Yet, as I started to read it, I was enthralled with the plot and characters. From the cruel stepsisters to Ella's relationship with the prince, this book is astonishing. I highly recommend this book to anyone, young or old. Furthermore, this book also poses a problem: you can't read it just once!"
16337,2,Retro-Speed Metal Goodness!,"Very interesting album... Retro-speed metal indeed. This is something like a mix of Speed, Trash and Black metal. Proscriptor's high-pitched vocals on this album really surprised me first time i heard them. They are too much for some people, but i like 'em. But i admit they do sound a bit comical at times. I believe there aren't many vocalists you can compare his shrieking to, but sometimes his screams remind me about King Diamond. Shaftiel does the lower vocals as always, and they both make a very fine job on both vocals and their instruments. The songs are great, and one of them (""Morbid Scream"") is actually a cover of Morbid Scream, a former Texan Black/Death Metal band from the '80s, that has greatly influenced Absu (and gave Absu the rights for everything they ever made)."
16350,2,Cantankerous Curmudgeon's Cornucopia of Cudgels,"No doubt the man was a gifted wordsmith and an entertaining read. But his colorful irascibility about practically anything under the sun did get tiresome at some points in this selection. His quasi-obituary about William Jennings Bryan was one hell of a mean-spirited diatribe. Wow, talk about kicking a person when their down. Also, I don't ever recall having to use my electronic dictionary so frequently with any other author. Half the fun was laughing when I discovered the meanings of some of the words he had used. Yet, despite Mr. Mencken's surliness, his remarkable writing and insights made the book well worth reading. Just keep your dictionary handy."
16403,2,Excellent Book!,"One of the best books, I have ever read. It contains easy to read and follow paragraphs of Dr.Joseph Murphy's teachings. Essential for parents, students and aspiring leaders."
16523,2,"Mad, happy and sad all at the same time","This book was awesome. I was crying, laughing and mad at the outcome. I don't want to spoil it, but you will enjoy this book:-)"
16559,2,Sparkley tails? COOL!,"The runaway kid, Mullet Fingers, and the new kid, Roy, have a great time saving owl families and their homes from the pancake mogul. A long book worth finishing. Roy learns a good lesson, too. Read the book to find out what he learned. I highly recommend it!"
16572,2,Similarly Intriguing,"A hapless protagonist dropped in the midst of unexpected circumstances only to find his way out by his own good fortune and the assistance of newfound friends. Such is the signature Ambler tale his fans have learned to like and expect. They'll be happy to find another one here. They may not be so happy to find some of the same characters they encountered inBackground to Dangeror a protagonist that is strikingly similar as well. Indeed, there is much in common in this and his earlier work. If not for the heavy does of Axis counterespionage on the eve of World War II, some might consider this one a bit stale. I found just enough new material to make it fresh and, like other Ambler works, equally intriguing."
16597,2,Worth reading!!,This book is one of the best books to help understand your partner and build a strong loving relationship that fulfills both partners needs. Highly highly recommend.
16600,2,Wake up call,"This is an awesome book, it works!Everyone should read this, it will really improve your marriage, even if only one of you read it and apply it."
16603,2,Great Book,Relationship helper? This is the book to read. It is such a simple concept of just listening and learning about your partner and what you can do to have a happy relationship.
16687,2,big wheel,"While the toy seems to be durable ,we haven't had it long enough to tell if it's going to hold up to abuse from a three year old. Petals could be a little closer to reach also. All transactions were quick and easy."
16766,2,Perfect Tool!,This is a perfect tool for home gardeners. I am using it to deadhead Crepe Myrtles and this well made tool make it so easy I even enjoy using it! Well worth it!!
16839,2,"One of the best books, on a horrible mitake of a war.","David Christian is one of Americas Greatest War heros. He exemptlifies all the charecteristics of a hero. He is extremly couragous, calling in artillry on top of his position. And this is a very excellent book on a very couragous and heroic man."
16862,2,Compact if a bit on the sparse side,I guess I can't complain given the compact size of this chart but I rather quickly outgrew it. Very good for learning the general constellations and locating all the major landmarks in the sky.
16867,2,Fantastic Book,"What were these three sisters doing to produce such great books in such short lives? This book is ahead of its time, and a page turner. Yes, a Victorian page turner. Everytime I thought the problem was about as bad as it could get and Anne Bronte would start wrapping it up, it got worse. For those who have read it, I've got to say Frederick Lawrence is far too forgiving...As for the writing, I had to admire how Anne Bronte let the reader in on things that went right over the heads of her narrators. This book is still fresh and well worth the time."
16872,2,classics,"House of Seven Gables was mandatory reading in high school. I have been out of school for many years and have been reading the ""classics"" again. I am enjoying them so much. I will be adding this to my Grandchildren's library and who knows someday they may enjoy these books as much as I have. pb"
16882,2,Graceful storytelling,"The prose is straightforward, elegant, precise, and powerful in an understated way. The novel has little in the way of melodramatic twists and major revelations, so readers looking for them would do better looking elsewhere. Instead, ""Waiting"" is about helpless lives swept along by political tides, about promises kept but not fulfilled. It's a distinctive vision that rewards a careful reading."
16893,2,Season 6 -- A New Era,"I think the show really peaked during seasons 3, 4, and 5, with the best season in my opinion being #4. Just incredible material. Season six is on the back end of the shows' peak; however, it is nonetheless fantastic!! Some great moments for sure. Don't get me wrong, every season is great, and I can't wait for season 7 later this year"
16899,2,Feeling young again,For those of you who tip the year scales over 50 this is a blast from the past from a group much loved and long forgotten.THe music has been re recorded and sosunds as fresh as the first time I heard it on LP vinyl - Anyone remember those big black things)
17030,2,What a talent!!!!!!!,This is an amazing CD! I do not think there is one song on this that I do not enjoy listening to. WoW! In fact it is so good I am sending it as a gift to the rest of the family! If you love Andrea Boccelli then you will melt when you hear Josh Groban. Track 10 is my absolute favorite! Great BUY!
17059,2,Sherlocks brother Mycrofts adventure,"The story line is Fast paced and interesting. Though having Mycroft Holmes ( Sherlock's brother). Traveling about .Does not agree with his image. Of being "" exact in his ways.And not one to exert himself ....other than crossing the street from his dwelling to the Diogenes Club. And Sherlock is not a active party in this adventure. But for us Sherlock Holmes "" Followers "" anything related to him or those connect to him .Makes for a must reading.A good story.So read and enjoy."
17063,2,a meeting with the music,you will find that many sounds take your mind away!. A magic moment with Stevie.
17069,2,Excellent and Contemporary,"Lethem is in a rare class of contemporary writers. His work enfolds you into a time period in Brooklyn, NY exploring all that makes the boro unique. This work is fascinating for the NY reader and the non NY reader alike. His characters are well crafted and his plot line solid. The book does explore themes of mafia and deceit which are always entertaining."
17075,2,Notorious by 5 After 4,"Vito Rezza is one of the finest and most creative drummers in the world, who demonstrates fearsome talent. He composes, plays, sings and stuns everyone who sees him perform. Notorious is unique, fresh and very hip.

17239,2,Great book,"This book is about a young girl in Berlin during the holocaust, and follows her during her time in hiding with her mother. Quick read and worth the read!"
17253,2,Lucid Portrait of Mental Illness,"When I was sophomore in college, a classmate was a nice, articulate, bright, and beautiful young woman, whocommited a suicide few months later. I always wonderedwhat would drive a privileged young person, with suchbright prospects, to kill him/herself. Ms. Plath'sbook finally gave me a startlingly and shockingly clearportrait of the gradual spiral of despair that culminatesin the ultimate act of self-destruction. Such mentalillness strikes across all social, econmic, racial, andreligiouls boundaries, but rarely has any author beenso candid and courageous in chronicling his/her ownhumiliating and agonizing experiences. It's worth notingthat Ms. Plath died by suicide at the age of 31.I cannot give it five stars, which is reserved for thelikes of Edith Wharton's ""Age of Innocence"", but it'sa gripping and harrowing must-read for anyone who everwondered about the experience of mental illness."
17279,2,Overlooked Gem,"Why this one is always overlooked I just don't understand. Originally conceived as a ""covers"" album (see liner notes) Trane takes Chim Chim Cheree and Nature Boy even further out than he had done with My Favorite Things while the Brazilia and Song of Praise are excellent examples of Coltrane's compositions at the time.While its great that labels want to include bonus tracks sometimes the set would be better without them. Here its mixed. Feeling Good is an ok track from the same time period while the two bonus Nature Boy versions are very interesting.Plays (along with perhaps Sun Ship) is a great palce to start a post Love Supreme collection."
17318,2,Interesting stuff but don't watch the documentary.,"For what it's worth, don't watch the TV series. It's interesting enough i suppose but the author insisted on being the narrator/presenter and it just comes across as some big hubris piece. Lots of endless repetition. The book itself is fascinating and worth your attention"
17372,2,an okay book,"I think this book is an okay book. It is definitely not on the top of my favorite book list, to tell you the truth, it would go more towards the middle. If it is going to be a kid's book they should not put so many bad words in it. What I liked about it was that it had a little bit of everything in it, humor, sadness, and even some scary things happen in the book."
17409,2,Too much tinkernig with the headmaster....,"Enjoyed the movie...any time you get to the 3rd movie it has to start to get tough. Glad to see that they got Malfoy's look together, too bad they are not letting his character develop.It was sad to loose their headmaster like they did, and I expected a bump in the road, but I think they changed his character too much.It was worth the 5 euros to see & look forward to buying the DVD...too bad they don't offer an extended version.djh"
17422,2,Loved it,It's Harry Potter need I say more. I really love how the producers kept as close to the original book. I can't wait for the rest of the movies.
17427,2,Maiden's Best Album. PERIOD!!!,"Not only is this my favorite Maiden album, this is my favorite album of any album... and I listen to all kinds of music. I have not stopped rocking this since I first got my hands on it back in 1986 (yeah, I was 2 years behind, but caught up real quick). This album overall yielded the best songs, production, and world tour <LIVE AFTER DEATH>. Is it any surprise that they brought back the Egyptian theme for their ""Somewhere Back in Time"" world tour '08-'09? I didn't see any devils with pitchforks or guys in straightjackets running around on stage. ""The Number of the Beast"" and ""Piece of Mind"" are awesome albums, but POWERSLAVE RULES!"
17537,2,Night,"I was very moved by this book, I can't say I enjoyed it, due to the subject matter. Once I picked it up, I had to read it straight thru in one sitting. Book was short but really held your interest."
17545,2,The book was exciting in every way.,"This book is about a dog named Shiloh and a boy named Marty. The story takes place in West Virginia, in the mountains. Marty is worried because he thinks that Shiloh's owner is abusing him. Marty wants to keep Shiloh so that Judd (Shiloh's owner) can not abuse him. I liked this book because I love dogs and I like exciting books in every way. When you read Shiloh, it is like you are there walking around at all the places and Marty is telling you the story."
17568,2,Hooked again,"""Buick 8"" left a lot to be desired, but it only took a few pages to realize that King is back on the beam. Western references abound, go grab those DVD's and see where all this came from. Can't wait for the finish."
17701,2,Good for family devotions,This has been a useful addition to our family devotion time. Gives us some thought provoking questions to prompt us to think about what we've read in scripture.
17738,2,Awesome insight!,This is a great book that explains just a touch of what eternal life is apart from Christ! Wonderful read for those who do not realize the absolute eternal life that hell will be.
17754,2,Awesomness,I wanted a long cable to connect my computer to my tv from about 12 feet away and this worked perfectly.
17846,2,a most excellent album,"the beastie boys have done it again.... they've created another good album. a variety of sounds are seen on this album, ranging from hip-hop to mellow to techno. it's refreshing! i suggest this album to anyone and everyone! a definte must buy!!"
17866,2,informative,After reading the little book lots of times I got the hang of it. I still have to refer back and forth to the rear cover to read the codes for publishers. I use it all the time.
17876,2,Great Tale !,"Cimorene was a bit out of line compared to her other sisters. Although she was pretty enough, she acted as UN-princesslike as she could. Cimorene found all of her regular lessons extremely boring and she was more interested in fencing, magic, and cooking. All three of which her parents banned.Then her parents forced her to wed Prince Therandil.(Cimorene said, she would rather be eaten whole by a dragon) So Cimorene ran away. Guess what she found? Dragons! Cimorene became Kazul's (the lady dragon) princess and found her new life much more fitting. Cimorene gets new friends, new fiends, and a cunning mystery to solve."
17938,2,Best lube ever!,"This lube is great for any purpose. My wife and I love it. What makes it perfect is it isn't sticky at all, in fact you could kind of compare it to lotion in the fact that it kind of just disopears on its own over time. It isn't a sticky mess like other lubes. But it is still very slippery and lasts a long time."
17958,2,Another Must Have,"Expensive, yes. But if you make your living with tools, this one pays for itself in no time. This is one of those tools that most people wonder what the heck will I do with this $400.00 plus tool set. Once you have it, you'll be using it all the time. Yes the e cut blades are outrageously expensive, I've bee making my own by cutting miter box saw blades and push/pull blades and welding them to a 1/16"" piece of metal that I bend & drill to match the mounting shoulder on the tool.Each blade takes about 10 minutes to make & I can make about 15 blades for under $20.00. The flush cut blade works better than the Bosch Fine cut, but the Bosch cuts deeper. The grout removal blade works like a charm and is way better & faster than recp saw grout blades. All in all if you are a renovation conttractor that does many different tasks, this is a great investment and you won't be sorry you spent the money."
17960,2,Will Smith; Lost Or Found,"While there are several excellent songs on this CD, I do not enjoy all of them. This is the same for most artists and for the most part I find the amount of songs that I enjoy on Will Smith's CD to be sufficient to warrant the purchase."
18041,2,No other choice,The Fein replacement blades are so expensive; but they work. Have been unable to find another product that does the job as Fein. Unique expensive product that works.
18073,2,A must read,"This is a superb nostlagic story of a boy and his childhood. It describes his beautiful village, his family and friends and many incidents which this boy has cherished for the rest of his life. The novel is touching and appeals to anybody crossing the limits of time."
18132,2,Must read,"Uplifting, emotional, feel good book anytime an absolute Must read! I want more from this author but this book is going to be hard to top.a real Pride Booster"
18136,2,"Excellent overview of a ""watch""","The more I read, the more I was inspired to partake in an individual watch of the Lord. Though this book does not delve deeply into the different aspects of prayer, it does give an excellent overview of what a watch really is and how to undertake one, whether by one person or an entire church. It contains many inspiring examples of how the Holy Spirit revealed His direction for prayer during a watch in fresh and exciting ways. I highly recommend this book to Christians who are serious about praying that God's will be done in all arenas."
18140,2,Works good!,My boyfriend is a drummer and he's really hard on his sticks. AND despite the fact that he's an amazing drummer he's still really clumsy..hence his sticks flying out of his hands in the middle of a gnarly breakdown... these sticks help him from throwing them at his bandmates and helps protect the sticks aswell!
18150,2,pleasure,This is a fantastic movie. Am very happy with the quality of the film and higly recommend this product. Have not been disappointed with anything I have bought from Amazon.
18163,2,la Boheme with Mirella Freni,I love this Zeffirelli staging of La Boheme and bought it because of Mirella Freni's awesome voice. Will watch this over and over again. A perfect opera in every way.
18182,2,"Works great horizontally, but hook angle not long enough for vertical use","These hooks are easy to apply and come off cleanly like advertised. They hold a good amount of weight and feel pretty strong. If you are using it vertically, for example, on a wall, then it should work great. If you want to use it horizontally, for example, stick it on a ceiling and hang something from it that way, then the hook probably wont be able to hold it because the item will slip off since the hook ""angle"" isnt severe enough, if that makes sense.For most cases, this is a good, strong hook that will fit most people's applications. The pack comes with extra strips so you can re-apply the hooks later."
18254,2,Christmas Present,Got it for the fathet-in-law for Christmas. he seems to like it for his Ruger 10-22 SR. it fits well and holds his magazines.
18259,2,Learning OOP in Flash? Get this!,"Even if you have experience with OOP in other languages like C# or Java, OOP in Flash has its own special nuances. Sam and Branden have masterfully covered in these nuances in their book on the subject.For me, the best part of the book is that they assume nothing in the process of learning OOP, partially because, with Flash, you can't assume that your previous OOP knowledge will translate cleanly. The book is well organized, and the information on component use and construction is second to none.If you are a Flash coder and aren't using these techniques, you are probably wasting a lot of time in your development tasks."
18268,2,Great jazz guitar & Diana Krall on one CD!,"I'm a recent DK convert (thanks to my brother-in-law) but realized that I already owned a CD with her sultry crooning on it - and I didn't even know it! Mark Whitfield's soothing jazz guitar CD ""Forever Love"" has two long playing tracks with great vocals by (you guessed it) Ms. Krall. If anyone else knows of any other collaborations she's done with other artists, please post your findings as I'd be interested to know."
18340,2,"Great item, cats love it","As I said in my review of the flat rectangular scratch pads, if you told I was going to spend money on corrugated cardboard for cats in the past I would have said you were crazy. But they LOVE them and the darn things WORK. They last forever and every day are used by several of my feline beasties, IF you have the Bergan, get the inserts."
18344,2,till we meet again,"what a wonderful first class mini series spanning two world wars and playing in some of the most exciting places in the states and europe. Hugh grant as Bruno , michael york and coutney cox are all superb, so is the rest of the cast, the story will keep you spell bound.another great book and movie from judith krantz"
18388,2,Remember the 70's?,"""Remember the Titians"" is a realistic feature that triggers a lot of emotions, and it demands a good soundtrack. But good doesn't even do justice to this; GREAT is more like it1 You'll almost forget you're listening to a movie soundtrack, more like a typical recollection of 70's hits. ""Aint No Mountain High Enough"" and ""Na Na Na Na"" steal the show; also noteable are ""I Want to Take You Higher"" and ""Spirit in the Sky"". On another note completly, this is one of Disney's best soundtracks for a live action feature EVER--keep it up, Disney! Usually, soundtracks for live-action movies just include instrullmental tracks, and don't appeal to many people as albums to purchase. But this one ROCKS DOWN THE HOUSE! I wish ALL of today's live action movies turned out such good music. Don't you agree?"
18414,2,Good product,"I like the pops not as nice as the drops! They do work, flavors are good but the ginger is questionable!! I would buy again."
18424,2,SAVE that H2O!!!,When you have to wait for hot water and it seams like minutes....this point-of-use mini hot water tank is your answer.
18441,2,Works Good,No issues. Installation was easy. Product arrived as described and early than expected. No complaints here. I have installed a K&N in my BMW a couple years ago and these things pay for themselves in the end since they have a lifetime warranty... Good Buy.
18462,2,Classic Survival Story,"This is a very good book about surviving as a POW in Vietnam. Itdoes get a bit lengthy at time when he is discussing the attemptsto ""correct"" his attitude and he describes the same philosophya few times too many but it is an extremely in depth look atthe philosophical and mental problems faced by a POW in Vietnam."
18463,2,Interesting character interactions: intriguing and confusing,"I throughly enjoyed this work of Emily Bronte's (which I believe to be her only novel). I liked Wuthering Heights much more than her sister's, Char.'s, Jane Eyre. The love and hatred which paint this plot make the reader love and hate every character at different points in the book. The only thing that I did not like is that I felt that having finsihed the book, I was never quite able to find a character whose motives I thought I truly understood--but perhaps this ambiguity is what adds an element of psychological intrigue to the plot."
18469,2,Good,"I never had to read this in high school, so I thought I'd give it a try now. It was pretty good. I think it may have been better if I read it in high school so we could all dissect the passages, but I think I managed fairly well on my own. I thought it was a good book. I'm glad I bought it."
18494,2,Solid 4.0 for a lighweight film,"No wonder Mike is an old, bitter cynic at age 40. If I went from looking like Zac Efron to Matthew Perry, I'd be most unhappy, too. What a funny, sweet and endearing movie. Zac Efron is more than just blue eyes and hair and his best friend (Thomas Lennon) is hysterical. He also gets a storyline that's just as enjoyable. What I liked about it a lot is that Efron's character Mike, is still in Dad and husband mode in his interactions with his family. Efron does a good job affecting the mannerisms of someone who is older than 17. And as a ""Scarlett"" myself, my ""Mike"" went from ""yeah, I wish I could do it all over again, too"" at the beginning to ""marrying you is one of the best things I ever did."" Awww."
18565,2,Surprisingly terrific,"I own six books on men's style so far. The only other author to whom I gave 5 stars was Alan Flusser.This book is expertly organized. The information is clear, and it is all rather thorough. It takes you from being and idiot (which I was) to being quite well informed (which I'd like to think I now am.)If you are going to buy only one book on men's style, get this one! If you buy two, get this and _Style and the Man_."
18571,2,"Works, but figuring it out might take an effort","Funny how even with instructions such a simple device can still be so confusing. Maybe it's because the cassette player I was using I purchased from a brontosaurus, but overall it did work well. With a more modern tape player, the whole process might have been easier. Nonetheless, mission accomplished with this product which actually came with much more in the box than expected, including a substantial length of good quality cable.If making it all happen hadn't been such a chore, I would have given this 5 stars."
18577,2,Ethical Living,"This is a great introduction to ethical living. It is easy to read and very amusing. The information is simple and easy to understand (I think implementing it is the challenge!). If you've read other books on ethical living or magazines such as the ecologist, then this won't add anything new or shocking, but for those new to the subject I can't recommend it enough. Well worth a go.Feel free to check out my blog which can be found on my profile page."
18776,2,great buy,"The colors i got were not bad at all. I got a blue print that isn't too ostentatious. The top is a little too big for me and the bottoms are a little too high cut for my taste, but I just fold them over. For sizing, I am about a size 3/4 in womens and the small fits pretty decently."
18784,2,Amazon and Grandma Save Christmas . . .,". . . for one very happy 6-yr. old grandson. I really did search everywhere for this X-box version -- not the 360 one -- of the Stars Wars II: The Original Trilogy. As it turned out, my grandson did get a copy of this game from his Mom and Dad, but it was for an X-box 360 so it didn't work in his older model. When he opened the box he was THRILLED and immediately popped it in the game set to play. He really didn't see anything else -- except for his extending light saber, which was another save-the-day gift from Amazon and one of Amazon's other vendors. Thanks Amazon, for making an extraordinary effort to get these items to me before Christmas. You made a little boy very happy -- and a grandma too!P.S. By the time I left for home, my grandson had reached level 6. Isn't he great!"
18825,2,great,I seen this Movie when it first came out and its one of the few movies I dont mind watching again.
18841,2,The title song is the best,"I bought this cd because when I heard the title song in a new age bookshop, I thought it was one of the most beautiful songs I'd ever heard. I agree with the other reviewers, her voice is not great, but the music absolutely is. Still, she has improved greatly. I had heard her before and didn't care for her voice. This is the first time I liked something she's done enough to buy it."
18864,2,I love these socks!,These socks are great! They keep my feet nice and dry when I workout; not so much as a drop of sweat! Nice! I also love these socks because the fabric doesn't pile even after several washing and years of usage. Love 'em!
18870,2,What An Eye Opener,I never dreamed there were so many different types of folds! Working on my present figure drawing with a smile on my face. Thanks to the author.
18877,2,Seven dials Mystery is a fun movie,"We so enjoy all of Agatha Christie's movies. The books are especially wonderful with no bedroom scenes or skin showing - the movies are sometimes not that way. What a talented and gifted woman. We are so glad we bought this movie, thank you Amazon."
18880,2,magical cinematic expression,"The story of Alec and Black and the strong bond between them was one of my favorite movies as a kid, and it's still a favorite of mine. My favorite scenes from the movie are the ones that occur during the first 45 minutes. The scenes where they're stranded on the island are so magical that I almost feel disappointed when they get rescued. After that, everything becomes much more ordinary: not bad, necessarily, but ordinary. Up until the racing scene, when all the beauty apparent in the island scenes resurfaces. Throughout, the cinematography, production values, and acting are first-rate, and the story has become classic. This is such a great movie, and not just for kids."
18886,2,Wooden acting and bad FX can't stunt the power of this film,A trash classic. A mute garment worker is raped twice within a few hours. She gets a gun and begins killing every man who makes a sleazy pass at her. That's it. The late Zoe Tamerlis Lund carries the film with a spooky performance. And Abel Ferrara gives everything a gritty sheen that he later perfected in films like KING OF NEW YORK and BAD LIEUTENANT.
18899,2,The ultimate in 60's garage punk,"Those people who discovered the Captain on Trout Mask Replica will be surprised as I was to hear Captain Beefheart and His Magic Band before they wrote songs with titles like Neon Meate Dream of an Octafish. Which is not to say this album isn't weird, as the linear notes say, the 60's doo-wop of I'm Glad may be the weirdest thing the Captain has ever done. Safe as Milk reminded me a little of The Mothers of Invention's Freak Out, it's Top 40 60's doo-wop as interpreted by freaks. And if you were one of those people a bit put off by Trout Mask Replica's ""mucus mules"" and ""dough eating squid"", then this album may be a little more approachable. Mirthful ditties like Yellow Brick Road (which for some reason always reminds me of HR Puffinstuff) and Zig Zag Wanderer are so easy to fall in love with. And changing the subject somewhat, when are they going to release Lick My Decals Off on CD. I'm dying here."
18920,2,Miracle On 34th Street,Usually a remake of an original does not pass the test of being better. This one certainly does surpass the original although both versions are great. If you like Natalie Wood then the original version is for you. This one with Richard Attenborough will certainly warm your heart. The entire cast was perfect for this movie. Enjoy!
18957,2,Life For Rent,"This is an album that has grown on me a little more with each listen. At first, only a few songs stood out. With time, others seeped their way into my brain and became favorites. The lead single ""White Flag"" is my favorite song. Maybe cliche, but the song is great and vocally she sounds excellent, not to mention it has a great hook and overall is an incredible pop song that is very memorable. I like the song ""Don't Leave Home"" as well, there is a warmth to her vocals that gives depth to the song (and others). The title track is a nice confessional ballad. ""Stoned"" is another favorite, it has an electronica flair, it definately grew on me a lot. Other favorites include ""See You When You're 40"", ""Who Makes You Feel"", ""This Land Is Mine"", and ""Do You Have A Little Time""."
19053,2,Snow Drift Cutter Kit,Rate 4 given because I have not been able to use them so far this year.Like the weight and mounting.Anyone that lives with big snow falls.
19060,2,Great tool,"I was torn between the Jet and this unit - especially after reading the reviews about the Delta unit getting broken in transit on more than one occasion. I figured that everyone seemed happy IF it arrived in one piece, so I took a chance. Happily, mine came in unscathed. Set up was quick and easy and in no time, I had made my first mortise with it. I have yet to really put it through its paces, but so far, I love it."
19068,2,Pretty good rock album,"""Contraband"" by Velvet Revolver isn't as good as Guns n' Roses or Stone Temple Pilots, but it still packs a few good rock tracks on. ""Slither"", ""Fall To Pieces"", and ""Dirty Little Thing"" are some of my favorites. Add it to your collection if your looking for a new rock album to add to your library."
19082,2,Astra Yarn - Ombres,"Believe it or not,I am crocheting a throw with this product right now. It is so soft, the colors are beautiful, and it is so easy to work with. I love this yarn."
19121,2,Good Text Book,I needed this for a history class last semester. It came quite quickly and was very useful. This was an interesting book and did a good job of going into racial inequality issues in Detroit.
19171,2,poetry at it's best--you will give thanks,"Lovely, thoughtful, deep, unusual, musings on painful or fascinating contradictions...SO EASY to READ and UNDERSTAND. You will pause and read again if poetry is ""your thing."" Written in Polish language on one side of the page and truly beautiful English translation on the other.Wislawa died in February of 2012 and I miss her, even though I only met her on line."
19172,2,nice book for a mini-retreat,"Interesting writing style, like that of a storyteller. Informative, yet refreshingly humorous. As relevant, perhaps, today as it was almost 100 years ago for those who want to 'get back to basics.'"
19224,2,New turntable 4 Old vinyl!!,"This is a GREAT starter table 4 getting my LPs & 12"" vinyl onto CD format!! WAY COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!! Amazing price & by the time I was talking about this at work - the turntable was already on my doorstep!! VERY FAST & wonderful servive!!"
19426,2,"witty, charming, sophisticated, most importantly romantic","In the spirit of Jane Austin, Where Roses Grow Wild's social commentaries, of Victorian England, are nicely blended with wit and charm. The characters are engaging, the pace is high energy. Most importantly this Victorian romance leaves the reader wanting to know more about the characters, and this reader hopes that Cabot will indulge her."
19446,2,Absolutely Amazing,A film I can watch over and over again and find out new things. Did he really kill 'Paul Allen'? Did he really kill anyone? An amazing film adapted from an excellent novel which I would recommend to everyone. A definate must see.
19516,2,This really is the canine's privates,"I bought this book when I first started on my Music Technology degree... I'm now just finishing my final year project, and I have to tell you... this book has been a fantastic help. Quite a lot of what is contained within is more information than I've needed personally, but if you have a real interest in the nitty-gritty of sound synthesis, then this is the book for you. Fantastic. You can hear how this book has helped my band by visiting www.groovedealer.com and checking out our mp3s. Also, we have free soundfonts available for download... so come check us out."
19540,2,HIM so good to be true,"I read the reviws and I see that most of you liked 'Join me in death'(HIM)! I have to say that I only bought this CD because of it, it's my favorite group. If you liked the song, you should buy a CD from them. They are not popular in America (you are reading a mexican's fan review), that's bad, they have greater potencial than some really popular bands (Did you know that The Rasmus used to sing their songs?!?)The Soundtrack is very good, I wasn't expecting this."
19605,2,Road Trip (Dvd Edition),"Excellent movie: all actors plays an incredible succesfull game, you don't sytop laughing dureing all the movie but it also makes you follow the entire movie."
19645,2,they dont belong to the attic!!,"this is THE BILLY JOEL LIVE RECORD!!, It doesnt matter if youre a beginner with mr joel's music, this is a definitely must for any music fan. Here you will hear the highlights of his earlier albums, in much better vesiones, the way Billy wanted them to be.You will not find any major hit here but nevertheless, ""songs in the attic"" remain as one of the most electrifying record in joel's career. Superb and powerful renditiones of ""captain jack"", ""miami"", ""los angelenos"", delicate masterpieces like ""youre my home"", etcetera, all in one album that by the way sounds terrific. Just buy it!."
19706,2,This C.D has very interesting songs.,"This C.D has songs that other singers sing in as well as Billy Joel, such as: Ray Charles and Cindy Lauper. The music is very creative, some of the songs show great anger, such as: Getting Closer and Running on Ice. This C.D is well worth Buying. All of Joel's C.D.s are worth buying."
19715,2,Reader-friendly writing about codes and ciphers?,"Yes. Singh again accomplishes his self-set task of opening and making intelligible a world most find at best ponderous and at worst impenetrable. His brief history of encryption methods and means of penetration of the same is both easily read and satisfying for those at almost any level. (If you think you're too knowledgeable about the subject, check out the cipher decryption contest in the back of the book. If you still think the book too elementary, you probably work for the NSA.) My only complaint is that the book is not as complete as some (including myself) would like. But it satisfies the desire to learn about an arcane and interesting subject, and yet it served to keep me up late reading rather than getting me to nod off in the middle."
19721,2,The last Hitchcock `s farewell!,"Truffaut really looked outstanding with this somber psychological study of the human soul, its affections and reminiscences around the intend of reviving a past passionate love affair, when the casualty face them again. She is his neighbor but he is happily married, though she really does not care about it, because she is living her actual passion as if the time would have suspended. In this state of things this fact is not any obstacle to her.A true gem of the French Cinema that has proved countless opportunities how handle with this issue. Depardieu and Ardant are both perfect: the final scene is simply unforgettable.A true icon picture."
19723,2,"Lots of information, not enough pictures","This is a great book, but I would like more pictures-preferably in color. But they go in great depth about many things like movies he was in, his wife and daughter, and his personality. Although I like this book, I would not recommend it. But if it is Ewan you are interested in, try ""Ewan McGregor: From Junkie to Jedi."""
19829,2,A humble display of a monumental piece,"A truthful and modest account of the Goldberg Variations is presented by American pianist Samuel Bartos. The voicing is crystal clear and his cross-handed work in some movements are flawless. His playing is not ostentatious. In fact, the beauty of this recording lies in its simplicity and humility. Unfortunately the timbre of the instrument is rather faint which robs away the richness that this piece so rightly deserves. No repeats is observed but the Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue is an added bonus in this CD."
19921,2,from the school of giallo,"British horror movie, wearing its influences of classic Italien horror masters as Argento and Bava, 'Only Darkness' also throws in aspects of classic 60s British cult TV to boot. The result is an eclectic and interesting film about a horror writer who finds himself sheltering a mute girl, who may or may not be on the run from an axe-murderer. With great performances from Crispin Manson as the increasingly threatened writer, Nicole Streak as the mute girl, and Dave Mitchell as Manson's controversial agent, 'Only Darkness' is worth the time as the surprise conclusion is unexpected."
19951,2,logitech trackman wheel,This is better than any mouse I have ever used and I hate going back to the old style mouse I use at work. I wish they had this available as a high performance gaming mouse. I bought one of those high dollar ones and I don't like it nearly so much as the trackman wheel.
19982,2,A splendid concert,It was just great seeing and listening to Cat Stevens seeing and playing some of his old tunes. The setting is intimate which makes it more pleasant.
19988,2,Wax Poetic,"Nublu Sessions is a great sounding record fusing jazz with electronic and worldbeat flavors. Norah Jones' two songs that appear on Nublu Sessions were ones she regularly sang with Wax Poetic while she was in the group. Wax Poetic is a revolving door of talent with contributions from U-Roy, Saul Williams, N'Dea Davenport and others. The vibe of this CD will defintely help you to chill out - without putting you to sleep :)"
20021,2,Great Buy!,"This subscription came very quickly, the next month after I ordered it. The price was the same as ordering it directly and the service was a lot faster. The biggest reason I ordered it was due to the fact that I wanted to buy a one-year subscription as a gift. If you try to order it directly from Bon Appetit you do not have that option for they will automatically renew it every year and keep your credit card on file. I did not want the burden of having to remember to cancel it in a year or having them keep my credit card number. I didn't even know you could get a magazine subscription from [...] so I was very pleased! Bon Appetit is a great magazine, I saw the first issue that just arrived and it was packed with delicious recipes."
20054,2,Good Speakers For The Price.,"I won't over hype these speakers as the greatest, but for what I paid for them they handle what I need. First lets talk about what is good. The price of this set will get any home theater going under 80 dollars, which is almost amazing. The sound is modestly good. The bad on the other hand can be over looked because of the price. The wire that does come with the speakers is so thin I wouldn't trust it as a pro for buying the speakers. These speakers offer virtually no bass response. I wouldn't recommend using them without a powered sub. When compared to higher priced speakers using the same equipment these speakers show there limitaions. The sound is almost harsh when compared to more expensive set of speakers. But you will probably only notice it if you hook up another set of speakers. For anyone who is building a home theater and it looking for a cheap way to get off the ground I can't imagine a better set of speakers for the price."
20074,2,Burgers in my apartment,"As an aparment dweller, this cookware is wonderful. I've used it for burgers and chicken thighs. It works nicely. No smoke in the house and the food was wonderful. This model works great for one to two people or if you don't mind cooking in batches. For more people, get the larger model, which fits on two burners."
20106,2,Swing at it's Best,"Swingerhead does a great job in their first cd. The music and lyrics are original and keep you hopping. The title track song : She could be a Spy will have you tapping your feet and singing along in no time. Lifts the spirits, and gets you dancing. I look forward to more work from Swingerhead. Drums, brass, guitar and a lead swinger that can't be beat. Michael Andrews has the voice of a crooner and this cd is a great taste of the talent this group possesses."
20155,2,Subscribed for years,"My wife used to run more than she does now, but I think this magazine is a good motivator. It always has interesting running articles and nutrition advice. I am a bicyclist, and I'm not sure that I don't get more out of Runner's World than I do Bicycling in health and fitness instructions (and I almost never run)."
20183,2,Tansends Age,"The content of this musical is little-kid though the story has the emotional depth that makes it not matter. The songs help tell the story in such a way that they condense emotions being felt by the characters, so there is a song that everyone regardless of age can relate to. the song I relate to most is ""Maybe."" I will not get into the 1999, 1982, dubate, because which ever movie you see, you will have a touching expereance."
20191,2,What They Said...,"Not much too add beyond what many of the other reviewers have said, except that it was a real pleasure to read such an approachable book, and get so many good ideas in such a short amount of time. Note: this isn't a book about theory. It's about what works and doesn't work in practice and that's it. Krug gets right to the heart of the matter on every point. If you're looking for detailed discussions of web design techniques and why they're good or bad, this is not the right book for that."
20200,2,"National Geographic. Loved it as a kid, still do.","I'm amazed that National Geographic maintains its high quality in articles and photography, which is displayed on good paper. Whenever their magazine is in my mailbox, I sit down immediately to read it."
20227,2,big ed is tight!!!!,"big ed is tight!!!!i don't care what anyone says, big ed is tight!!!!he can rap good, to me it was worth my money.if you don't have this CD then git it fast!"
20281,2,Great addition to library,"Good book, good quality and a great addition to anyone's home library collection. It's just not the same if it is digital."
20284,2,It wasn't too scary to read,I was hesitant to read the book because I didn't want to have nightmares based on movies I had seen. I really enjoyed the book. I had a hard time putting it down and found it to be a wonderful classic.
20325,2,for travelers who value creature comforts,"Several years ago I had a job where I traveled a lot for work. This experience made me choosy about where I stayed, and what I did with myself when I was away from home on weekends. It was at this time that I began reading Travel and Leisure; I've read it ever since.Travel and Leisure is unapologetic about writing for people who want to be pampered when they are on vacation. It inspires readers with pretty pictures, and promises paradise to those with money to spend and time to plan. This is not a magazine for those who prefer youth hostels. It is not for people whose goal is ""adventure travel."" Travel and Leisure is for people who want to relax, to be pampered, and to be charmed when they are on vacation from their otherwise hectic lives. What if you don't have time to take that vacation? Well then Travel and Leisure is precisely the magazine you should read to help you imagine what that trip would have been like."
20353,2,Don't buy on promo,The filter was susposed to have been free with the purchase of a $400 lens but was charged on the invoice. Don't buy.
20371,2,Tiffen UV Protection Filter,"Great, inexpensive filter. I have been shooting with this filter 100% of the time and I have great image quality through it."
20450,2,Feels Good To Smell Like A Boss,"I bought this because it was on the top ten colognes for men on some site i went too on google. Anyways, it smells really great and lasts all day. I work in a corporate office and its 8 hour days and this scent lasts well pass the time i get home. Warning: you dont need a lot of sprays for this, a few well placed squirts around the neck and the wrists and your good to go. I recommend this, it came well before the estimated delivery time, nothing was tampered with and it smells really great. Get this fragrance and smell like a BOSS!"
20465,2,Broadway Broadway BROADWAY!,"I'm sorry, but it's really the best song ever . . . well, maybe cause it reminds me of this guy . . . but seriously, i mean, broadway, iris, slide, . . . who could ask for more?"
20577,2,Comfortable - reading,"I enjoyed the story of Carol Taggert and Lee Grafton, I would have liked her to be a little more comfortable with her family at her age, and he a little more satute. But overall it was a good read."
20583,2,Life Changing!,"Under the right circumstances, the information in this book could be considered ""life changing""! I know for me, that was just the case. HIGHLY recommended for ANY woman, but especially to those who have endured any type of abuse as a child or even as an adult. Best purchase I've ever made!"
20598,2,I love Jeeves and Wooster,My wife and I like to dress up and have semiformal dinners. Frequently we will put our computer on the table so that we can watch Bertie and Jeeves. It adds to the magical moments of our lives.I recommend this series very highly.
20633,2,Great Album by Cryptopsy...,"Cryptopsy is a great grindcore/death metal band with insanely fast drums and powerful riffs, deep growling to throat ripping screaming vocals... The only thing that disappointed me was how this album was produced... and instead of having their own unique sound, they sound a bit too much like brutal truth and suffocation combined together...Anyways, this album is a great album and if you're a cryptopsy fan...BUY IT!!!"
20635,2,Vandoren B45 Dot Bb Clarinet Mouthpiece Review,"What a bargain! I got it for half the retail price, brand new. A much smoother sound. It was my first purchase from Amazon and it won't be my last."
20686,2,Every little boy will love this book!,"It has been hard to find books that my almost 2 year old grandson will sit and listen to, but he loves this one. I highly recommend!"
20733,2,McEnroe Is The Man,"Love him or hate him, John McEnroe is an engaging personality. Reading this autobiography is just like listening to him do tennis commentary--it's conversational, funny, and honest. I already liked McEnroe, but I like him even more after reading this book. He can admit when he is wrong (well, now he can at least), and he is not afraid to share moments of insecurity and awkwardness in his life. He is a real human being, and it shines through in these pages. I wish there were more men's tennis players like him today."
20752,2,Good value for the money.,I bought this set for a family member. The quality is pretty good. The pattern is versatile.
20781,2,real genius,"This is not a novel. This is a special product offering a view over a style of life and political events which distroyed and affected millions of people. To have the power,hallucination, talent and humor to create this story was unparallel. The proof is that even people living in US can appreciate and enjoy this book. For us who lived the hell, this book is like a Bible which helped us to survive."
20849,2,Good book for those that like history of our presidents.,"Good book for those with an interest in American history and our presidents. Our preteen knows a lot of presidential trivia, so this was a great resource for him to add to his knowledge. The adults of the family enjoy it as well. Good pictures and easy to understand."
20855,2,One of my favorites,"I just finished reading this book for the second time, I read it about 4 years ago and for some unkown reason i picked it up agian. It is a beautiful book, in so many different ways. It has a voice a feel that I can't articulate, but that has touched me both times I have read it. Yes, it has flaws, but they add to its beauty - the overall story has an honesty and quirkiness which really transports the reader."
20911,2,Second Best Novel I've Ever Read,"This is the second best novel I've ever read. It was a little difficult to read the first time, but then again I was twelve and wasn't so familiar with certain parts of the Arthurian Legend at the time. I have read it several times since then, however, I have only read the first two books of the Space Trilogy once. I have mentioned that this is the second best novel, the first would also be by C.S. Lewis. It is TILL WE HAVE FACES: A MYTH RETOLD.While many of his books are far more popular than THAT HIDEOUS STRENGTH and TILL WE HAVE FACES, these two books are certainly his best works, and some of the best works in the English language. However, I must warn that if you are a Lewis fan and have read the Chronicles, you might find these much more difficult to read."
20959,2,Long and durable,"(I am using my moms laptop so ignor the craft queen thing...)Know, serious airsofters should leave this page right know cuz this gun is for beginners. I got this 10 years old maybe older from a friend. It survived for another year or so it is very durable. it shoots pretty far but doesn't hurt much. i have an airsoft club and to get in you must freely get shot, and that's what i use this for! After that 11 years it's parts got loose and you had to pull the trigger and slam the top with your hand(though that's pretty fun). It's a good ""plinker"" for running around in the back yard. ONLY FOR BEGINNERS otherwise it's pretty lame."
20976,2,Best book in the world,"Kurt Vonnegut was the most brilliant mind alive at the turn of the century. It is an utter shame that he died recently, but so it goes. In my opinion, this is his finest work. He satorically questions religion, war and the nature of man all in one hillarious masterpeice. He is the Mark Twain of the 1900's. I recomend EVERYONE read this novel."
20989,2,Not that bad,"Saw this while Puppy sitting.DiCaprio isn't one of my favorite actors but he did a superb job portraying Howard Hughs. One of aviation's unsung heroes, most people think Howard Hughs as the long haired semi-mad recluse paranoid about disease that Johny Carson so often mocked. Yet Hughs is one of the top aviation pioneers of the beginning time. Indeed if Hollywood had tried to make up a character like him for the films, nobody would believe he was real. Yet Howard Hughs the man was very very real and very very human.This film avidly portrays him. Portrays him well. His antics in Hollywood. His pioneering flights. His record setting flights. His committment to aviation as the future. His slow decline into madness.Scenes great. Costuming wonderful. Character acting supurb. Special effects well down and not over done.A good film."
21001,2,Tobor the Great - DVD review,"Purchased through Amazon.com. This was a favorite robot movie from the early 1950s. I remember watching this movie on WGN's ""Family Classics"" with Frazier Thomas back in the 1960s. A little corn, but fun just the same. Very capable cast and the robot is fun to watch (you may have to smile a little, you know . . . come on!) Picture and sound quality are first rate. Hope you will consider adding to your collection. You'll be glad you did."
21048,2,"Lights, Camera, Sex! by Christy Canyon",A very intertesting story into the darker side of life that a few people will every travel in their life time. Christy Canyon comes out the other side I think much better off in life.
21117,2,A Very Merry Beatle Christmas Indeed !!!,"I purchased this double-CD last year. Absolutely FABulous.If you enjoy this ""Beatles"" Christmas CD, you should also purchase another one called ""Xmas: The Beatmas"" which has 12 songs sung in similar beatle-style. Both are a must-have for any Beatles fan.Jeffrey"
21120,2,Take Me Away,This was great! I've always wanted a trip on the Venice Simplon Orient Express and this is just what I need to see for a preview. Trip will be in the future! Definitely get a feel for the luxury and attention to detail on the trip.
21121,2,A Trance Lover Must Have,"I thoroughly enjoyed Paul Van Dyk's compilation here especially ""I'm Comin'(to take you away)...very sensual and borderline provacative, ""For An Angel""...great ""T- dance"" tune to get you pumped up on the dance floor...he'll keep you up and bumpin it with the title track ""45 RPM"" with the same high ENRGY tempo. ""Emergency"" will leave you startled as you anticipate the arrival of an ambulance siren. This culminates with a reprised version of ""For An Angel"" leaving you craving more. Keep it comin' PAUL!"
21161,2,Upbeat and fun to listen to with catchy lyrics!,"The song ""I feel like singin' along"" has an upbeat pace similar to Hank Williams Jr style, and a hint of Merle Haggard with well-thought-out lyrics...I certainly like to sing along!! Even though I personally prefer upbeat tunes such as the above-mentioned, and ""Runaway Cadillac"", and many more, the song ""Big in the Heart"" seems truly from the heart, and is very enjoyable. I'm now a great fan of this artist! Jenneye Shugar drcoffee@kdi.com"
21258,2,The Outsiders,"I loved this book. It was interesting, intriguing, and suspenful. It has a great moral that many people should take to heart and if they did the world would be a much better place. You will fall in love, as I have, with Soda, Ponyboy, Johnny, and many more. The book has one part when you can kind of tell that it was written by a 16 year old pupil (and it was when it was written) because the story kind of penetrated the set stage and was somewhat hrad to follow. It is a really great book, and I recommend to everyone, especially people who do not have a high self-esteem. I need to shut up now so that I don't give anything away, but this book will always stay gold."
21306,2,the best audio you can get,"You want to become a better person, keep or make friends this is for you!"
21312,2,I recommend it to anyone- with friends or no friends!,"This book will make you really think about about how to treat people. I think the best advice he gave that really hit home for me is to not criticize people, and to know how to be critical without hurting other people. I personally don't have a problem making friends, but I think we all (whether popular or not) should (from time-to-time) brush up on our people skills, it doesn't hurt, it's a process of growing. He uses a lot of historical characters to make his points clear, so those who like a little history can also benefit from this book. However, I also highly recommend, ""The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People"" by Stephen Covey, the combination of the two will definately be effective. Happy reading!"
21403,2,a terrific yarn!,"a long story, never boring. More fascinating due to the titillating, unfortunate career decision later made by the actress who here plays the goddess Quan Yin."
21462,2,Wisdom Of The Mystic Masters,"I read this book twentyfive years ago, and I began to seriously change my life. Unfortunately I loaned the book to a friend and could never get it back. I soon thereafter made contact with the Rosicrucians. The last twentyfive years has been a journey, and although I had only studied earnestly with the Rosicrucians for six months or so, everything that they taught me has been validated through observation and experience. I mourned the loss of this book for twentyfive years, and just happened across it here in Amazon. I am now reading it again, and I am amazed at how much I have progressed....and how much more there is to do. My youngest daughter and my first two of more to come grandchildren are blessings that I would never have been granted had I not read this book and found my way to the Rosicrucians. I am so happy to have found this book again."
21562,2,Neat Product,"I added these as stripes to our office space and I was able to accomplish just the look I was going for (retro chic). The colors are fun and added some zest to our light grey walls. It was my first time using wall-pops so it took me a minute to get the hang of hanging them. The best part is that they are removable and can be reapplied over and over, so the product was very flexible with my beginner status. I am so glad I purchased them and will definitely be using them again. My fiancé also really likes our office and said we should use them in more rooms of our house!"
21662,2,In his lovely memory,"This is a wonderful product, in the package there is such a beautiful stuff!You can remember the Bad Era in a full way and this is also such a moving feeling!I' ve cried a bit, after seeing and listening all the CDs.I recommend this product, no way!"
21896,2,A well-written practical book,The book gives a complete review of diseases and vaccines so the reader can make an educated and informed decision of each vaccine for their child. . You will appreciate it on many levels. This book is a must for any new parents. The information is a life safer for your kidsWhen you have babies you can't go without these titles:The Poisoned Needle: Suppressed Facts about VaccinationThe Vaccination Myth: Courageous MD exposes the Vaccination Fraud!Vaccination Horror: An anthology of important works on vaccination pseudoscienceVaccination: Spreading Leprosy and DeathVaccination: State sponsored Murder
21914,2,Too good for the price,"Had pretty much decided to go with Nuvi 350, but when I went in to store I found this cute little GPS for half the price. I bought it thinking would return it even if I find flaw, but I must say mio has surpassed all my expectations. The user interface is intuitive, but dont try to learn how to use the product from the manual. The manual sucks. The POI database is decent, infact its on par with all the other GPS's if you exclude the 3+ mill POI boasted by other manufactures that applicable to canada and europe :). Took this for my boston city and I am home back safely. Highly recommended"
21989,2,Gettysburg/Grant Comes East/Never Call Retreat,"Well into the third book in the series. Makes me feel like I was there, (sure glad I wasn't). Great reading, can't seem to put the series down. Sure makes you think on what might have happened. Personality traits of the main characters true to form and parallel nicely with what I have read. I really enjoyed this Trilogy and would strongly recommend it as a ""must read"" by any Civil War Buff as an easy and enjoyable adjunct to what has been written."
22010,2,I have no idea why...,"I don't know why I liked this movie. It was stupid, but stupid in a campy funny way. Rent it - save it for the $1 rental, but give it a try... great for a lazy afternoon when you just need a laugh or few."
22015,2,Hellboy Review,"One of the two best movies ever made to star the red guy.Hellboy having an animated film as magnificent and it could only be better if more were made.The art of Sean ""Cheeks"" Galloway does a great job paying a homage to the work of Mike Migonla.I believe people who are fans of Hellboy will really enjoy this film."
22077,2,Other the demonic Mr. Quija 2 skit,"This album was great, it deals with occult like aspects a lil too much, but non the less this album is by far the greatest rap album by a group, classic."
22103,2,What A Great Album!,"Carlos Santana is back, and is here with some friends as well. ""Supernatural"" shows that Santana has truly survived the test of time. Carlos is ""bad,"" man. From the slow ""Love of My Life,"" featuring Dave Matthews, to the spectacular guitar acrobatics of ""The Calling,"" with Santana and Eric Clapton both showing how well they manipulate their instrument, this new album is a joy to listen to. ""Supernatural"" also has other big names like Lauryn Hill, who raps in the song ""Do You Like the Way,"" and Rob Thomas of Matchbox 20, who sings in the toe-tapper ""Smooth."" Eagle-Eye Cherry is also on the album, along with alterna-rapper Everlast. Although these songs are not as memorable as the classics ""Oye Como Va"" and ""Black Magic Woman,"" I enjoy them just as much or better than some of the other stuff we here today. . ."
22155,2,Worth buying!,"Now one would think that a rap song about a washed-up comic book character would be silly and/or stupid, but believe it or not, this song is pretty pimped out. And I agree with Mr. Heering, it's alot better than the two versions on the soundtrack album. I higly recommend this disc."
22162,2,Presto Electric Tea Kettle,This is an excellent product. It fits my needs well. The whistle lets me know when the water has boiled and the fact that you can remove the kettle from the base to pour the water is even more conveneient.
22201,2,That's my Jon!,"Always excited for new Bonjovi music! His voice sounds beautiful as usual. A few really good tunes, a few okay tunes and a few so-so tunes. I do see him searching for content. Hopefully between this and the next he will have an awakening of some new sounds and words. Though I like to hear about the ongoing story of Tommy & Gina, I also get tired of hearing about barkeeps in more than one song. Still, the songs that are really good on this CD - are really good!!!!!!!!"
22270,2,"Yes, you need this album","This is the album that introduced me to B&S, so I may be somewhat biased, but I would put this two-disc set up against any of their other albums (all of which I now own and love). When most bands put out collections of singles and b-sides, you get what you would expect from a collection of such; what you get here, however, is two discs (for the price of one) of songs that are as good as any that the band has released. While most bands save their best songs for the full-length albums, B&S have put out a series of EPs containing some of their best material, and, thankfully, these EPs have been condensed into this muchvmore economical two disc set. This is an excellent starting point for anyone out there who is B&S-curious, as well as a must-own for fans."
22294,2,Fine Film With an Exemplary Cast,"This simple tale of two lonely finding each other may not rank as one of the great films of all time, but it works as an outstanding character study. Not only are Billy Bob and Halle brilliant, they are supported by the always-capable Peter Boyle, Heath Ledger as Thornton's son, and a heart wrenching, albeit brief, turn from rapper Sean Combs.And to those critics of Berry's Oscar, I say ""WHY NOT???"""
22316,2,what is soul singing!,"the title of this review is the jeopardyesque answer to the question that the music of this album brings forth. this album of music on cd format is soul music at it's zentith on display and should be considered a compulsary for music collectors and lovers. consider the first four songs performed on this album, they are not aretha's hit songs but they are aretha's best singing, also notice the background singers performance on satisfaction (i can't no) and come back baby, that's an example of soul musics church roots. i can't believe i'm the first one to review this cd, and i hope i am not the only who's looking for it, this performance is a gem and you will not be sorry for purchasing this cd. i gave it a 5 star rating with extreme partiality for a very good reason, if i may quote an old american folk saying: it's bad!"
22365,2,Amazing Album,"I absolutely love this album. Each song is incredible. Sure it's no blue album, but I don't know why everyone wants it to be exactly like the blue album. what the fun in that? I think even the people who are not sure weather or not they'll like it will love it. I think the best songs on the album are ""This is Such A Pity"" and ""Haunt You Every Day"". Both of those songs are just amazing. The other really good ones to look out for are ""Perfect Situation"", ""Hold Me"" and ""Peace"". Those are wonderfully written. Great job Rivers! So I highly recommend this album to everyone. You'll love it."
22385,2,Pretty Good Smelly,"This stuff smells pretty good. I don't know how to really review a cologne, you should prolly just smell it for yourself."
22433,2,Avid Reader,"Overall, the book was okay. It had the characters behaving stupidly upon occasion but it still was a decent read. The sex was hot of course and the story line was fairly solid. I just thought the characters could have acted a little more intelligently."
22439,2,Good Stuff!,"Color Me Badd's debut album after the smash single, I wanna sex u up, this has a lot of songs that you'll be humming in your mind. All for love, I ador mi amor, thinking back are all great songs. My first album ever, one of my favourites!"
22619,2,A Wave of Coolness,This is my absolute favorite album ever. The first time I hear (the song) Guitar Noir I was blown away in a wave of coolness. The most intense surf music I have ever hear. The music is so complex and melodic. All the sounds are mysterious and haunting. This a masterpeice; the crown jewel in the heavy crown the aqua velets wear. The Aqua velets didn't record songs on this album they recorded moods. Also in the liner notes It says something about a book by Mongemery Green but I can't find any book by this guy. please e-mail me info on him. thanx
22624,2,"J.C.Bach: Piano Concertos, op.13 nrs, 4-6, & 14","I heard the first movement on my car radio on the way home from work, and knew that I had to have it. The music is so lively and free, and with a period Fortepiano, the sound is so marvelous that it just envelopes a person and you become one with it. If a person likes lively, early music on period instruments (modern instruments don't even come close), then this CD, and its sibling are just the ticket to an hour or so's listening enjoyment."
22626,2,Friends while never let you down,This book was great! The Saddle Club's friend Tessa is at Pine Hollow but she has been spending more time with Veronica then The Saddle Club. But then the girls THINK she is make Lisa and her mom do more work then they can do for the big horse show coming up. And they also THINK she is make Carole do more work around the stable. And she is making Stevie angry and sad because they THINK she likes Stevie boyfriend Phil. Is Tessa doing all that stuff to them or is Veronica behind it all?
22634,2,A Classic,"This movie was amazing, it has everything you could want in a movie, violence, sex, gore, Johnny Depp, Heather Graham, and drug use. It is a classic film and smart. I recommend this movie, if they want to be scared and shocked, and also interested in Murder Myesteries. Yes I know it isn't highly factual, but it does go along the lines of one of the Jack the Ripper theories, this was the first large and famous serial killers. It really is worth your time to catch the movie. It will keep you on the edge of your seats, the acting is done well, set design is marvelous. You will not be disappointed."
22750,2,One of the Better of the Best,"It seems a general rule of thumb that if you enjoy the guest editor's work, you will enjoy most of their selections. I enjoy Koumunyakaa and his choices for this years best poetry. I especially enjoyed his introduction talking about the lack of content in many poems today. As with most books in this series, there are many familiar names such as Merwin, Williams, Kizer, Levine, Philips, but also some new and hopefully upcoming poets, such as Joy Katz. There are a few September 11th poems, but most of them are readable. This is one of the best in the series that I have read."
23033,2,Every one should have a father like Atticus,"All the reviewers who gave this movie less than 3 stars said they had to read it for English or said they ""Made us read it for English"". When will these people learn, you read books in English. Books like To Kill A Mokingbird are classics. This is a great book. You pepple who ""had to read it for English"" open your minds and enjoy. If they had fathers more likse Atticus they would be able to enjoy reading a bit more."
23103,2,AT LAST!!!!!,"I held by breath for eight years and finally I can exhale. I consider this CD to be a platinum effort by Sade and a welcome relief from other disappointing R&B offerings out there. This CD rocks with sparse albeit deep lyrics, jammin' beats and the raw sensuality that is Sade. BUY THIS CD! You will not regret it."
23118,2,Excellent Conclusion to a great series,"It's a shame that this series is out of print. I had to get mine off eBay for nearly $40.00! Now I know why. Though the series is written by different authors, you would never know it and the series is more about Kith-Kanan than the elves themselves. Sithas (Kith's brother) is featured in the 2nd novel for a few chapters, but it's mostly about Kith-Kanan. The Qualinesti focuses on Kith's two kids mostly but Kith gets some limelight as well. This book presents a very different view of the Elven nation than the one we know from post-cataclysm. This Qualinesti has men, dwarves and elves living together, while PC Qualinesti is inhabitted purely by elves. If you can get your hands on this series, do so!"
23135,2,I've seen it a thousand times -- literally!,"And I am a person who can rarely watch a movie twice. My friends and I can quote exact lines from the movie at the slightest prompting. The dialogue is at once intensely heart wrenching and side splittingly hilarious. Also, this is probably the only major motion picture ever made without a single female character, not even an extra. Imagine that."
23141,2,Great CD-R Product! A Must Have!,"Wonderful for saving data and burning games or cd's. Nice spindle bundle to hold the cd's in so they don't get cracked, lost or ruined. I haven't had any problems with these yet! Nice capability of burning or copying at 12x speed, also storing 80min or 700MB of space! Great for backups or just reliability at a cheaper price than most brands and products! A must have!"
23148,2,Beautiful,Well made suspense romance story starring Bogie and Bacall. They are so good together...Also see The Big Sleep. Hawks was a genius.
23166,2,Dramatic Read,"I am an avid reader of biracial romance novels. Ms.Kittgive you the ""411"" on interracial relationships. This is a goodread. I loved Leah. She had a lot of issues to deal with----a silly sister and a stupid boyfriend. Jason was a tough as nails type of guy. He had to battle with the loss of his son and with the stupid bigots on his job. Inspite of all Jason and Leah had to go through, love won in the end."
23171,2,"Good, but..",It has been many years since I read this and I guess the boquets that are so generously thrown at Aasimov don't seem quite as wonderful as they used to.
23201,2,I forgot I was reading...,"This book was fantastic. The way in which this book was written it's hard to believe that the author wasn't there to see the actual events transpire. She writes with amazing detail, capturing the emotions of the women in her story. Every chapter in this book brought out a different emotion, I cried... I laughed... I logged on to the encyclopedia to see if certain parts of her story were pure fiction, or fact. It was literally impossible to tell at most points in the book what was coming from her mind, or from her research. I've recommended this book to my mother, sister and best friend... And I also encourage you to experience it as well. There are elements of terror, love, learning and growing... You will relate to the women in her story."
23219,2,Great Read!,I found this book in the library and picked it up on a whim. I started to read and was blown away by the rich texture of the story.The premiss of the book fascinated me; tidea of reading about women who lived during Old testament time was excitig and new; the details of the period added rich color and life to these well known characters.I loved the book and am sad there was not more to hear from Dinah or the author. For similar premises I recomend works by India Edgehill.please visit me at BookDevour.blogspot.com
23265,2,Great theatre book for kids!,A terrific book for my youth theatre. I am always looking for new games to play with the kids. The key is keeping things fresh! This was a big help and a great addition to my bookshelf!
23302,2,Nutcracker,"This is a wonderful interpretation of ""The Nutcracher"" Outstanding performers! I realChristmas treat for everyone!!I would recommend it to anyone. It would be a great treat for the whole family to watch!"
23308,2,The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn,"I want, DVD version ""The Adventures Of Huckleberry Finn"" with Mickey Roonney, with subtitles in spanish and spoken in spanish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
23322,2,Quality product.,"Not much to say. It works, it's good quality, and it's cheap. I use it for walking the dog on a windy dark road at night."
23445,2,A bit different from Lewis's norm,"This may be my least favorite of C.S. Lewis's stories, but that isn't saying a lot. I thought the bus ride to heaven and hell was a bit goofy, but everything else was phenomenal. From detailed descriptions of the physical properties of heaven to the wisdom of George MacDonald, this book will make you rethink your priories in life and the afterlife. It serves as a ""reality check"" of sorts. Though told as a fantasy story, I believe this book is more of an essay.I would not pass over this book!"
23468,2,Perfect Chick Flick or Date Night,"In this Drama/Period Romance, Edward Norton is an introverted English bacteriologist living and working in China. He briefly returns to London and proposes to a privileged, care-free, socialite (Naomi Watts) who barely knows him. She quickly becomes bored with her new life in China, and his affection for her turns to contempt. This is where the romance begins. Perfect film to see with a girlfriend as a chick flick or date night.Highlights: Scenes of Shanghai and 1925 style beater.This review is included in a new listmania ""No One Wears a Beater Better - Edward Norton Films""[...]"
23489,2,A winner for the heart.,"This movie is spectacular in every way. At the theater I was blown away with the lavishness and constant eye-candy of the sets and scenery. I can hardly wait for the DVD, to help re-create some of the magic of the big screen.I am a lifetime fan of the original musical ""The King and I"" and once even saw Yul Brenner do the stage play in person. A magical experience -- so I went into the theater thinking it might be a poor imitation, but it wasn't! A completely different kind of movie, with a wonderful, believable performance by Chow Yun-Fat, speaking of eye-candy. Jodie Foster brought the passion and bravery of Anna to life -- and though it only contains elements of truth; it is a charming, sometimes breathtaking fantasy worthy of some of the most lavish productions of Hollywood days gone by. If you love beauty, passion, and a rollercoaster ride of laughter to tears and back again -- you'll love this movie!"
23538,2,Exactly what i wanted,"Seriously, all I was looking for was a trimmer, NOT A SHAVER, I use a razor for that. This works perfectly to keep your beard at the right length. I personally don't have a thick beard, which is perfect as I am able to maintain that 5'clock shadow look pretty easily. Just like everyone else said, no lubricant needed, one charge seems to last forever! Easy to use, and great price."
23562,2,It's a wonder if Lohan didn't win an Academy Award for this,"Someday Lindsay Lohan is going to win an Academy Award and it will be in belated recognition for this performance, which I think was a little too subtle for some Academy members to fully appreciate at the time.But Lohan is not alone."
23568,2,Wake Yourself Up!,"""Mean Girls"" is the two-year old film from writer Tina Fey and featuring Lindsay Lohan. I have loved all of her work and now this. Out of all her films, I thought this one was the best. This was moving, funny, dramatic, and wildly inventive, all at the same time. The film is a work of genius, and it's constantly entertaining, and all of the scenes work. It is not your average Lindsay Lohan movie like ""The Parent Trap"" and ""Freaky Friday."" Lohan proves once again that she can do more than Disney remakes, and she had already proven herself with ""Get a Clue"" which I really liked."
23596,2,Cady Heron and the Plastics,"This film starts out with Cady Heron(Lindsay Lohan), who meets a clique at lunch called the Plastics, comprising of Regina George, Gretchen Weiners, and Karen Smith, and they soon begin to spend time with each other. The opening credits proceed this event, found in scene #1, and scene #2 is where the action begins to pick up. Before to meeting them, Cady learns about these Plastics from two other individuals whom she had met during her first class."
23598,2,"Now this is what I would call a ""feel-good"" movie.",Watching the video always makes me feel good at the end. It is my favorite movie of all time.
23670,2,Gripping and heart warming all at once,"I've watched the movie ""Alive"" many times but not read the original book on which the film is based. Nando Parrado's account of the surreal nightmare that became a stark reality for the passengers on that doomed Fairchild plane is nothing short of incredible. Parrado paints a vivid picture of his personal battles with the moral issues he was faced with. But it was his personal approach to the psychological and spiritual mountain he had to climb, in order to survive and tell the tale, that is the core of this story. After reading this book, you are left with a stronger feeling that there is indeed hope even in the darkest hours. Stories about beating impossible odds are far from unique but this story stands out simply because these events were thrust upon a pretty average young man who had no intentions to test the limits of human endurance in any particular way.I thoroughly recommend this book!!"
23688,2,Arnold at his best,"I like this movie especially for the Soundtrack. If you like Schwarzenegger, this movie is worth to be seen. The story has this interesting conflict between the ""I am so cool"" US Cop (Belushi) and the proud Soviet Cop (Schwarzenegger), the rest of the story is as usual ""finding the bad and killing him, with a lot of action"". The DVD is also ""as usual"": They call a Theatrical Trailer of the same movie a ""Special Feature"", ha!"

23721,2,Princess Mia has to get married...,"Princess Mia has been busy since we left her in the Princess Diaries. She has had Princess lessons, and has also just graduated from college.Queen Clarisse, Mia's grandmother, wants to step down so that Mia can become Queen but the royal ad visors say that she can not be Queen until she is married. There is another hiccup also. Viscount Maybrey wants his nephew Nicholas Devereaux to be King since he also has royal ancestry. The advisers say they will give Mia one month to find a husband and then she can become Queen.Mia is given a list of suitable husbands (one of which was Prince William) and she picks Andrew Jacoby, Duke of Kenilworth. They get engaged to be married, but Mia finds herself falling for Nicholas instead (even though she cannot stand him.) Things come to a head at Mia and Andrew's wedding. What happens after? Watch the movie.This is a very good sequel to The Princess Diaries and Anne Hathaway and Chris Pine (who plays Nicholas) are great."
23727,2,So much Info,"This book has so much infomation, it is fantastic. More of this should be implemented into our public schools.. A great book to help understand why the english language is the way it is..and thanks to Amazon for the speedy delivery..."
23804,2,Madonna is back on the dance floor......YES.,"To start ""Hung Up"" is a totally hot song with 70's ABBA as background. This song is so dance music. Anyone who listened to Madonna in the early years in the 80's will appreciate this album. We get to finally hear new music from Madonna that sounds and feels like that familiar 80's sound with a touch of today. Good job Madonna !! Your have given your faithful fans what they have always loved. Dance music sung by Madonna....welcome back to the dance floor."
24042,2,It made a lasting impact.,"I am a 27 year old woman. I read Upchuck Summer maybe 17 years ago. Perhaps even longer, but I'm not sure. If there's one thing that I remember most about this book is that it certainly made me laugh. Having spent many summers at sleep away camps, this book certainly captured a lot of those memories. It's sheer fun. And 17 years later I distinctly remember how much I treasured it. Every kid should have a copy. How dare it be out of print!!!"
24118,2,New favorite artist,Not much to say except that I have been listening to this nonstop and it's still just as good. It doesn't matter what genre of music you are into. If you are a fan of excellent music you would like this. Listen to a sample and decide for yourself. I can't wait for the next album.
24158,2,Good Read,"Liz and her partner of ten years Joanna have decided to split up by mutual agreement. Liz's friend Connie has been in a terrible accident and Liz goes to see her in the hospital and runs into Grace an old flame who burnt Liz badly. The flame is rekindled, but as things progress Liz realizes that Grace has not changed at all, still selfish putting her career before love. Through it all Joanna is still there for Liz to pick up the pieces. Linda Hill comes through again."

24315,2,wall ironing board,"This ironing board is great if you are trying to save space. It folds up on the wall. When folded down to use, it works like a regular ironing board. It is strong and durable."
24324,2,The World History of Beekeeping and Honey Hunting,"The mystery, art and science of beekeeping. This is a must have book - Information and references in this book are not generally available anywhere else - Great reading on a Winter's night or a Summer evening. Easy to skip around in the chapters depending on your curiosity or mood. Every beekeeper and bee-lover or anyone with an abiding love of or deep sense of the mystery, art and the science of beekeeping should have this book."
24326,2,Great stories!,I've lived in South Carolina most of my life and never heard many of these stories. I love 'Sunset Lodge' and 'Murder at Cape Romain'! Great accompanying photos and sketches.
24378,2,"So cute, works great!","I love this humidifier for so many reasons. One, it's easy to fill, and even has a carrying handle which makes it easy to transport from the bathroom to the bedroom. Also, it REALLY pumps out the mist when the dial is set to high. That's another thing, it has a dial for controlling the amount of mist it puts out. I guess my only complaint is it makes loud ""bubble"" sounds as it drains, and for a light sleeper, it make wake you up. Other than that we LOVE IT!"
24432,2,Excellent book if you're committed to PL/SQL,This book is excellent and the author's proficiency in Oracle/XML is second to none. I like his News Portal and Pager explanations. This is the first book I've seen to talks about the issues when paginating result sets using XML or otherwise. I particularly like his approach to using XML as the model and clearly separating the presentation from the model. He preaches this throughout the book and demonstrates how to do this effectively using XML and XSLT. The one critisim for me as someone who isn't 100% committed to using Oracle is that he makes a lot of use of PL/SQL and Oracle features. I accept this because it's after all a book about writing Oracle XML applications but it takes away from the reusability of his examples for me.
24435,2,Good price on an exercise/birthing ball,"I got this for my partner who is pregnant and she uses it to relieve discomfort. Our birthing center have similar ones that will no doubt be useful during labor. My partner was able to inflate this herself with the included pump, she said ""it was a little bit of a workout, but that was ok"". She is 5'4"" and I am 6'0"" which are the extreme ends of the recommended height for the 65cm ball. This is a comfortable height for both of us, so the recommended height guidelines seem pretty appropriate. I was a little concerned I should have gotten the smaller ball, but this seems to work out just fine. It's held up pretty well so far even as she continues to add weight. I don't have any comments on the use of this as a regular exercise tool, we got this after trying the ones at the birthing center.For info on use during pregnancy and labor:[...]"
24474,2,KING BACK....YA DAMN RIGHT,This CD/DVD is off the hook man i just got it today it was only one copy of the Limted Edition left I'm glad I got it. T.I. really put it down on this one I have all his cd's and could not wait for this joint ever since i heard he was coming out with KING in January. From 1. King Back to 18. Bankhead I cant stop listening to it all the tracks are hot and T.I.'s flow is still sick his flow gets better with each new cd with ATL in theaters and this CD 2006 is this dudes year 4 real
24503,2,In an Age of Information Thinking is Life!,"Norman Geisler and Ronald Brooks have written a fantastic textbook on how to think using Logic. They dare to focus on students within their own Christian faith, demonstrating that you can think and be Christian! Even with the faith based examples they refrain from preaching in any way, so this work is a great introduction to Logic for anyone who wants a taste of how to examine their thinking. The book is worth buying just to read the contrast it makes between inductive and deductive reasoning. I am glad to see this book still in print!"
24508,2,"Great live album, but...","If you want a sampling of AC/DC live this is a great album. I would, however, recommend the 23 track 2 disc version that is also available.This live album has a great selection of tracks (Back in Black, You SHook Me All Night Long, Highway to Hell, Dirty Deeds, For Those Aobut to Rock, among them) but the 2 disc version is more complete.Including all of the songs on this version and also Sin City, Fire Your Guns, Jailbreak, Razor's Edge, Are you Ready, High Voltage, Let There be Rock, and Bonny.For Jailbreak, High Voltage, and Let There be Rock alone the 2 disc set is the better buy."

24714,2,Good Information,I bought this book for my daughter and I found myself using it. Great for the teens and the teens in us all.
24716,2,Great Read,"I was very impressed by this book. A book has to have characters that hold you, and make you feel right along with them... this book certainly does the job. An excellent read for the book lover that doesn't want to put the book down."
24717,2,Keep Well Pills!,"My husband really likes these vitamins! He works REALLY REALLY LONG Hours! Mostly 12 hours+ a day 7 day work weeks. He swears by them, they help keep him well through his stressful Aeronautics job! He has used them for years! He also takes extra Niacin, Vitamins C,D,E, Fish Oil, & Ginseng. He also eats alot of veggies and fruit, and gets regular rest.He said he would give it a 5 star except for they don't make him into Superman! Only close!"
24734,2,"The Girls Next Door, @ It Again!","Season 2 was just as good as the first season, it got more into getting to know the girls better individually. I love this show, I think it is hilarious, and I would recommend buying season 2!"
24856,2,must read,"This is a must read for anyone into true crime. This man was a genius at his ""trade"". I read this shortly after it came out and remember it to this day. It is definitely right up there with In Cold Blood and Helter Skelter."
24882,2,history,"Ok film may not be very accurate, It is know now that it was an British officer who stopped the ""over the top mentality""But lets take a look at it this way so many young people died on both sides , it's pity they didn't keep playing soccer like they did before , Lest we forget because if we do it will happen again and again"
24903,2,Colors of the Day,"Judy Collins has a spectacular voice and the selections in Colors of the Day show it off beautifully. I have loved listening to this album since it first came out as an LP, and I love it just as much now. No one who enjoys listening to Judy sing would be disappointed in any way with this CD."
24919,2,The Philadelphia Experiment,I have seen this movie many times over the years and was unhappy that it was not close captioned. I recently lost my hearing and had to struggle to remember the dialogue.
25065,2,great,"This is a great movie. I had been wanting to see it for a while so I finally broke down and bought it. I wish I had gotten it sooner. A nice, clean, horror movie. :)"
25084,2,"A long-lost ""Sweet Soul"" classic finally on CD.","The Futures were one of the most criminally underrated soul harmony vocal groups of the 1970s. Despite the greatness of their recordings, they failed to make it big. This 1975 release is deservedly viewed as a classic ""Sweet Soul"" album today although it went nowhere when originally released. Highly recommended."
25104,2,GeniusCat,"I had the Omega box before this. The Omega box worked O.K. It did make cleaning poop easier, but sometimes the clumps would break up and throughly cleaning the box was a big hassel. Litter would sometimes come out from the sides when rolling.We had to move the box to a small linen closet so we needed something slimmer. Thats when we bought this litter box. This litter box is amazing. Our cat took to it right away and has had no problems using it. Cleaning up is actually pretty easy since this prevents a lot of the tracking the Omega box did not. The Clevercat Litter Box is very well made and just plain genius. Our dog cannot reach the poo poo anymore (we had to face the Omega Box toward the wall). It looks great too in the linen closet since it is small. Though it is small, the footprint of the litter box is bigger than the Omega box litter side. This was a great purchase."
25222,2,Why you should buy this CD,"OK Go is one of those bands that anyone, no matter who they are (with the possible exception of those located in a geriatric ward somewher of the coast of ohio) can listen to their CDs and find at LEAST one song they love (and if they're super cool, enojy the CD as a whole)so, listen to OK Go!-joan"
25236,2,Fresh Espresso Lover,"A friend of mine had the BRIEL EG281 multi-pro with built in coffee grinder. They absolutely love having fresh coffee beans ground on the spot, then placed in a filter holder for an ""instant"" espresso. I was surprised at the rich crema and texture that the espresso coffee was extracted from the machine, which proves to me this machine is a winner. It takes a strong pump to give a proper espresso.Then it blew my mind when I learned you can also use the coffee pod or serving. I've had illycaffe in the past and actually like the pods my friend had better. The extraction was even richer with the pod and there was absolutely no messy cleanup.I've had an entry level pump espresso machine from Krups and found it to be marginal at best. I'm sold on BRIEL and this MULTI-PRO machine is great. I'm not sure if I'm going to buy the one with the built in grinder or the one with the built in 10-cup drip coffeemaker. Maybe I'll have to get both!"
25265,2,Actually Works,Finally I have ended my ongoing dilemma of trying to keep the squirrels off feeders. They cannot get anything from feeder but still can get the seeds that fall underneath.
25302,2,This is such a good book!,"I loved reading freak the mighty. I got quite attached to the characters, especially kevin. you all can have your own opinion but i think you should give this book a chance. ""boring"" is the very LAST word in the world i would use to describe this book. EVERYONE in my class loved it."
25368,2,Amazing & Hot....Damita Jo sizzles!,"This is her best release since Rhythm Nation. I personally did not care for The Velvet Rope or All For You. Damita Jo has refreshing tracks such as Spending Time With You, Like You Don't Love Me and I Want You as well as party tracks like Slolove and Strawberry Bounce. The interludes add to the hot cd. I think this is Grammy Worthy.Janet still has it!"
25383,2,High school date movie,Remember those dates in High School than involved the first ten minutes of a movie and the closing credits? Here is your chance to see what you missed.
25438,2,The Proper Way To Hear Lizzy Borden,"All I can say is just that. This expertly executed live set from the band during it's early days is the perfect way to hear Lizzy Borden as they were intended to be heard. From song to song, there is more conviction in the performances, sturdier rhythmic attack & Lizzy's vocals are flawless. Highlights are ""Flesheater"", ""Save Me"" & ""Psychopath""...but the real winner here is track #16.One of the two studio cuts added at the concert's conclusion, ""Dead Serious"" is perhaps the most electrifying moment of the band's entire recorded body of work. The dynamics in this song are perfectly arranged & if the entire bridge following the guitar break doesn't floor you in it's unchained intensity, you must be dead. Don't believe me? This purchase is totally justifiable for this song alone. Buy it & find out for yourself..."
25475,2,vile display of good music.....or is it?,"Well, im a 'vile' is my first death metal album (bought it out of wonder) and i must say it is a great album. Even the simple opening to pucture wound massacre can't sway my virdict: for people who make fun of this opening, listen to the rest of the song. Plus, for people who are long time listeners to cannibal corpse: when you keep writing about the same thing over and over, it gets alittle boring, so when you look at 'vile's lyrics, just think that management was restructuring. Thats just my opinion, i could be wrong."
25481,2,Outstanding and timeless,"I have nothing to add to the glowing reviews that already make up the body of this catalogue. This book made the same sort of impression on me as a child that the Bible, Torah or Koran might make on a religious person. It is, in my opinion, a superior example of flawless storytelling and I cannot praise it highly enough.Buy two- one for yourself and one to give to someone you love deeply."
25501,2,Great fit for deep mattress,"I ordered these sheets after trying a number of others on our LA Baby crib mattress and having no luck- all had pockets that were too shallow. These sheets not only fit with a little room to spare (even after washing/drying), but are soft enough for baby's skin. Great sheets for the money! I ordered two more."
25518,2,Reaper madness,I just recently learned about Reaper and had to start from the beginning with season 1. This has become one of my favorite shows even though I didn't learn about it until it had been cancelled. You will love this.
25522,2,a rare and fortunate collection,"This is one of the greatest collection of words ever printed under one cover. The poems around Howl are also some of Ginsberg's best, some are:""A Supermarket in California"", the second most anthologized Ginsberg poem, ""An Asphodel"", a beautiful little (short) love poem about what i believe to be a tulup or a dafodil (look it up, tho, it has symbolic meaning) and ""Song"" which is a very sincere and beautiful poem about love that made me cry it was so simply powerful. It is terrific to have this collection of poems in a small, nice-looking book; its portable. You can turn to any page and find something extraordinary."
25523,2,Lukas Rossi is mesmerizing!!!,"Lukas Rossi is totally addicting. He is one heck of a stage performer. I love his voice, his look, his writing, almost everything about him. He is the real thing. I saw Supernova in Dallas and they were Wonderful! This album is some of Lukas Rossi, but not the absolute best. Keep watching and supporting him and you will not be disapointed. He will come into his own. His older stuff with Rise Electric is really good! If you get a chance to see him live don't miss it. It will be one of the best shows you will see. He is captivating. Lukas Rossi is a real Rock Star, but I don't think he really knows that yet."
25543,2,Great but not right for me,"I love the brace, but it wasn't right for me. I am extremely athletic and muscular, so when the instructions were to measure the knee around the kneecap, I did. My problem is that my thigh and calf are larger than ""normal"" and I couldn't get the brace over my calf! I think it would be helpful to specify the calf, knee, AND thigh measurements where the brace will need to fit so users will know for sure they've got a proper fit. Otherwise, I hear it's a great brace!!! I ended up going with the ""one size fits most."""
25550,2,B&W nuff said,This filter is high quality glass and screws onto the lens easily. I am very satisfied with the filter. It does not influence the auto-focus of the camera. I had a cheap filter before and that filter did influence the auto-focus of the camera. I only use B&W filters on my Sony A77 lenses.
25656,2,The Besta One Yet!,"I think a this was a wonderful, how do you say it, it is a the besta one, you going to update it, because a I thinka you should, you a very good a writer sir. Lots a people should go and a read thisa book you see. Excuse mya English it isa not a very good you see."
25675,2,"Good, quick book",I need to create a class on biz writing. This book was great as it didn't get involved too deeply into the boring grammatical aspects. It instead focuses on general rules to write solid biz documents. It's useful. It's to the point.
25695,2,One Of The Best Thrillers Of All Time,"I can't really say anything that hasn't already been said. This movie is frightening, extremely suspenseful, revolting, and, above all, undeniably compelling. Fincher is in fine form regarding the direction of this movie, and Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman (one of the best actors of our time), Kevin Spacey, and Gwenyth Paltrow turn in exceptional performances as the main characters. This is easily one of the best films of the 90s, and any true fan of motion pictures should add this collector's edition to their DVD library."
25743,2,A better overall album than their first,"""Blue"" turned out to be even better than I had expected. This album is more than just catchy tunes this time. Third Eye Blind has grown musically and lyrically since the last album. Many may have found the last album stalled for them after the hit songs were over, but ""Blue"" is a much better overall album than their first. It's definitely full of energy, with well thought out lyrics and an improved sound. There is a pretty good variety, with ""Anything"" starting the album off with a heavy hard-nosed rock song, ""10 Days Late"" and ""Never Let You Go"" with a more fun pop-rock feel, and slower songs like ""Darkness"" and ""Slow Motion"". I have found it very easy to listen to the album straight through, over and over, once I listened to it a couple times. I would most definitely recommend this album to both those who enjoyed all of the last album, and those who only enjoyed the first half of the last album."
25746,2,"A Worthy Follow up to ""3EB""","It took me 2-3 listens before I decided I liked it. This CD will take a few listens for you to get used to it. I particularily like the soft spoken ""Slow Motion"" and ""Never Let You Go"", ""Anything"" and ""Darkness"" has wierd guitar thing going on."
25759,2,The do-it-all glove for the non-mechanic,"I have last year's model. Different color, same product ID.This model is the only one in the Mechanix line-up that gives good tactile feedback. I can type on tiny keyboards found on PDAs and Blackberrys with these on, slow typing though. These have replaced my shooting kevlar gloves. They are light duty but provide enough protection from splinters and such when doing yard work, moving heavy furniture, etc."
25798,2,A bargain,"You get more than you pay for here, which isn't easy these days. I send these to my daughters by snail mail, but I could see them as art or periodic motivators too."
25865,2,Food for Thought,"This is a book about a part of history that is often in the headlines but at the same time it is about a region that is little known, that is East Prussia and how the whole situation developed for Mr Wieck and his family.One is left with the sense that something was truly lost by the Germans (could it be 800 years of history flushed down the tubes?), something much bigger than what ever it was Hitler was seeking and in the process many suffered and died. The subsequent occupation by the Russians of Koenigsburg was interesting as it was disturbing. Why only four stars - I felt there was more in Mr Wieck's notes about his life during that time that could have been included. It was a feeling. I am left wanting to know more about that region and its modern history. Other than that it was fascinating and I am still thinking about the book."
25891,2,samsung scanner,"Very easy to install, could come with user guide, but pretty basic to set up and use. Disk holder seems a little flimsy, maybe not recommened with young children to use. Great picture, sound and features. Bought to streamline movies and netflex. Not dissaponted."
25929,2,headlights,I installed these bulbs as soon as I received them. They seem brighter than the originals and work great. I have been using them about a month. Good deal and good service.
25964,2,How To Love A Piano,"What virtues could a lighthearted memoir of a man looking for and caring for a piano have? Firstly, through seemingly superficial events and conversations, Carhart manages to convey his deep love for an instrument and the music it creates without trace of affectation. Secondly, he writes well and gives rounded and sometimes quirky character portraits that generates a sense of delight in every chapter. He does this without putting down anyone. Thirdly, his obsession with pianos of every make and provenance gives the book a structure that, while repetitive, can be delightfully comical. Fourthly, this book is well-informed and factual about history and music but never dry. Most importantly, and this is probably the reason why I like it, anyone trying to learn the instrument for pleasure will find a kindred spirit in this book."
26060,2,Me Read More Sedaris Some Day,"After years and years of dumbfounded stares when I mention I haven't read Sedaris, I decided I'd better give him a chance. I think I steered myself awy from Sedaris because I'm typically not a fan of funny books (if only because I rarely find them funny). Sedaris has proved an exception, and I kept thinking about Twain as chuckled my way to the finish. There is a similarity, at least insofar as Sedaris has a similar biting wit that may prove to transcend generations like Twain -- although I don't feel as though Sedaris is as good a writer.But yeah, lots of good stuff. Stuff I could relate to. Stuff that makes me want to see Sedaris on another one of his book tours. He's got a new book out. Something about chipmunks. I'll have to check it out."
26110,2,Keeps the big birds away,I got this to scare off a pesky heron that ate some of my expensive Koi. I haven't had any more fish missing since it was installed. I would recommend to anyone that is trying to keep pests away from your pond. Just make sure and turn it of before you walk in the line of fire or you will be taking a bath.
26118,2,It works,I'm generally happy with this product. We purchased it to keep the stray cats out of the yard. It works pretty well for that. It seems to go off randomly but it helps water the lawn too so no complaints there.
26157,2,Makes pulse diagnosis easy for anybody,I Realy enjoyed this book. It makes pulse diagnosis acceessible to anybody even without a lot of experience. Very clear and sharp distinctions are made between the different pulses. The writer shares his experience which realy helps.
26193,2,Very rewarding!,"Wonderful collection of the most important short stories in this century.The delivery is late, though! But I'm in Asia, so it's fine.Highly recommended!"
26274,2,A Fortunate Sound Track for all,"I just recieved this Cd not too long ago and I'm glad I did. Just like the movie the motion picture soundtrack is very fortunate and I can't help but listen to ""A Marvelous Marriage"", ""The Bauldelaire Orphans"", and ""Resilience"" over and over again."
26319,2,my side of the mountain review,"The book my side of the mountain was an interesting book It's about a boy named Sam Griggley who runs away from his crowded New York house to live in the catskill mountains.There he finds animal companions,and his great grandfathers farm.In my opininion I think that everybody in a 10-13 age group shold read it.He trains a falcon,makes his own house.twords the end you'll see a dramatic change in his attitude.The end will suprise you very much but that is all I 'm goining to say."
26369,2,Works as designed,The rack system is simple to install and very sturdy. The hardest part is finding the studs in the ceiling to drill into. It holds quite a lot and is a great product to solve the cluttered garage.
26380,2,"Al Jarreau, ""This Time""","I had 33 LP record for this. I used to play the record over and over. I went to AL Jarreau concert recently. It was such a great concert that I wanted to buy CD. This CD is not popular like his ""Breaking Away"", but this contains Al's masterpieces. My favorite song is ""Spain"". I feel the passion of Al Jarreau toward music in this CD. Al on stage is as good as before or even better. This CD is my favorite as well as ""Breaking Away"" of Al."
26455,2,My favorite album to play drums with.,"Almost every song on this album has a great grove that sits forward in the mix. For drummers, it's easy to hear the rhythms because they are not buried or synth produced. The variety of grooves is good with a strong fundamental that is good for developing my ears and sticks. I throw in some of the fills, without losing the basic rhythm. The songwriting is decent. MercyMe is Christian contemporary music. Not exactly praise and worship--more like pop. Lyrically not as strong as my favorite song writers in other genres, but the tunes are good and sung with passion like the artist really means it (but is not in a worship trance either). I purchased this album for my nephew who is learning drums."
26517,2,A Masterpiece For Everyone To See!,I think everybody should see this movie! It is truely a Disney Masterpiece! END
26549,2,Great set,"These bottles are the only ones that my daughter will take. The day she came home we started useing the Avent system but started using these once my milk came in because we didn't have to transfer the milk into Avent bottles after being pumped. From then on it has been smooth sailing... the nipples are really soft and flexible, the hole is on the top of the nipple so she doesn't get squirted in the back of the throat and choke. I do have a few complaints though, I agree that the ""sealing disk"" are a silly thing, I ended up only using the whole caps. Also, the nipples only come (as far as I know) in ""slow flow"" and my daughter sucks so hard that the nipple will sometimes go from round to flat because she creates so much suction on it. Other than that, they are the only bottles my ""bottle snob"" will currently take."
26647,2,Excelent Book and More tha a Field Guide,"I bought this book because I read good things about it and I like turtles. I thought it was another field guide that specialized in turtle. It turns out that the good things said about it are true. This is a classic among turtle guides as it cover anatomy and physiology of turtles and provides extra incite on species. The book was revised in the 1995 mainly to update the scientific names and the maps may have been updated. This book was not revised by Archie Carr since he had passed away. However the original content of the book has not changed. Mr. Carr makes this guide interesting read which is a great feat when you do nature, field or animal guides. The book is hard to find since it has not been reprinted since 1995. If you can get one at a reasonable price and you like turtles this is a book you want to add to your personal library."
26685,2,"Cheap, easy, and it works","I have to say I was a little hesitant about buying this antenna, but when I received it, I hooked it up, and it worked instantly. Crisp HDTV channels for free! The only bummer is I have to place it differently to get some channels, but its well worth it."
26691,2,Suburban Wonder,"I live 18 miles west of Philadelphia, PA and I receive 24 digital channels, including the major networks and PBS, in wonderful clarity on my new ATSC equiped LCD TV. I get basic analog (not digital) cable to save money. But this wastes the capacity of the TV. Because of this little antenna, I will drop cable and let the TV buy itself with the savings in just 10 months. Sweet!"
26693,2,review 1/20/01,"Im am a really big dance hall/dub fan. I found Whispering Lion's latest album very up lifting and easy to listen to. With so many releases that focus on negative stereo types and violence it was refreshing to hear something socially aware and pleasing to listen to. I also dj (mostly down-tempo, hip hop, dub) and will be looking for Whispering Lion on wax."
26705,2,Great Great Awesome,"Used this to clean my digital camera, worked like a charm. I would surely buy form them again as I didn't have any issues with this order."
26804,2,cute sprinsuit!,We just ordered a small size suit for our daughter who is 18 months old. It fits well as she is tall for her age. I think this size would be an approximate 2T. The fuscia color is a bright pink - not quite as shown on the image that accompanies this product. It's very cute.
26814,2,Wonderful book!,This was the first book I bought of Roffman's. His tasteful selection of pictures was brilliant and the love explodes out of the pages
26836,2,Terrific Book,"I guess i'm late, cus microsoft is now phasing out MCSD! Anyway i did both 70-175 and 70-176 yesterday (April 26th, 2004) and i Aced both exams (900 and 814 respectively). I primarily used this book, it covers everything u need to know. The great thing is that Mr. Foxall actually did thesed xams and understands exactly what they're about and as such does an excellent job in presenting the material. The chapter on Package and deployment and COM are the best i've seen yet! THIS BOOK + TEST KING practice questions EQUALS PASS."
26852,2,Great Movie,This Scooby Doo movie - along with Scooby Doo and the Harlem Globetrotters is my daughter's favorite movie. Nuff said
26908,2,Best of 2003,"It's early, but I'm confident that this book is going to be one of the best poetry releases of the year. Twenty-Seven Props is engaging, charming and a total mastery of language, full of lyrical banter and wit. I find myself returning to Donnelly's book again and again, speaking the lines aloud and marveling at their power and charm. Pick this book up, it's well worth it."
26909,2,Great for my 20 pounder,"I had a difficult time finding swim diapers to fit my 9 month old, but these were great! They have enough elastic to keep whatever is inside the diaper inside without leaving horrible marks on my little girl. Also, they are easy for mommy to rip off to take the diaper off after my baby is finished swimmming."
26971,2,The Pregnancy Bible,This book is fabulous. I read it front to back and it was so informative. All those questions that you ask your doctor about are already answered in this book. All you have to do is look it up and the answer is there. I also enjoyed the month by month descriptions of what you should expect and found them all to be true. This is a perfect gift for all mothers (first time or 10th time). This is truly one of the best pregnancy books on the market.
27023,2,NO MO ICE,I've got one of these from somewhere as a gift. This thing works great! I live in the South so usually its not much more than a little frost but its pretty wide and certainly NOT flimsy. Its got a decent sized handle and scrapes off everything. I've got a garage now so I don't need it!!
27026,2,an excellent voyage through a girl's view,"this is an excellent book. I recently purchased it through Ebay (oops). It is a story of a young girl and her innocent bond between her and her brother. Various photographers like Hamilton and Sturges try to capture the images between girlhood and womanhood, the transition period; the moment she is no longer a girl, but not yet a woman. Carolyn Slaughter paints us the picture through her words. I only wish I had found this book earlier, I would have been done with all of her books by now. The book opened my eyes. I enjoyed sharing the journey through a girl's and woman's view. Oh, by the way, the book does involve incest, however, she allows you to make the value judgement of good and bad. Where good becomes bad, who has made it bad, etc. I definitely recommend this book. I only wished I had such a strong bond with my own sister."
27195,2,Haven Maine - not sure I'd want to live there...,"King's take of the ""The Colorado Kid"" taken and placed to a tv series. Note this is the second (and final season) and the story line starts condensing rapidly when the writers find out if has to end now!! Good series, probably could have gotten a good third season out with some care. Shame it go canceled so soon."
27259,2,I wish the Bermuda Triangle books were done like this one.,"I read this book a number of times a long time back. My attention returned when I realized that the author's theory of sudden methane releases causing ""bermuda-triangle"" type events is supported by later gas-hydrate buildup discoveries in cold water. This review is from memory -- I just placed an Amazon out-of-print order."
27272,2,"Considered The Definitive Book on Nazi Germany, Publ 1959/60, 1245 pp, 5 Stars","If you only could read and own one history book on Nazi Germany, this would be it. Don't let the 1245 pages daunt you, this is a very well written and readable book on the subject. Shirer was apparently a journalist and started research on the book when he first went to Germany in 1925. He spent 5-1/2 years writing it. The title pretty much explains it, it covers the rise of Adolf Hitler to the eventual fall of Berlin. There are other history books that cover specific aspects of the Nazi's, such as the recommended 2002 publication of Antony Beevor's The Fall of Berlin 1945, but this is the one history book on it all. Considering how the events covered set up the modern world, this should be essential reading for everyone on the planet."
27493,2,Alexandre Dumas,"Having purchased The Three Musketeers and The Man in The Iron Mask I realised that there were three intermediate novels pulling the story together.Twenty Years After, The Vicomte De Bragelonne and Louise de La Valliere bring the complete story of the musketeers into focus. To gain the most from these stories they need to be read as virtually one book in five large chapters."
27522,2,Beverly Hills Cop,"Axel Foley is a Detroit cop who after the murder of his friend travels to California to investigate and track down the killer, who he believes operate an arts dealership as a cover in Beverly Hills. He teams up with two reluctant detectives from the Beverly Hills police force who were supposed to keep a watch on him, especially after seeing Foley's different approach to tackling the situations which is not acceptable by the chief of the local police. This movie has the combination of clever comedy and the ingredients from harder action thrillers that ensured Beverly Hills Cop status as a cop comedy classic."
27556,2,BUY THIS!,"Nothing is wrong with this item. It works fast, easy and provides a lot of storage for a decent price. It was delivered on time and in good condition."
27567,2,transcend 16gb sdhc,"Ordered by mistake (meant to get the micro version), but it ended up finding a home in my netbook as my work space. Works great and keeps the internal drive uncluttered."
27589,2,Memory Card,Lots of memory for pictures movies or what ever- Got the card for coolpix 90 Nikon- perfect- I might go to the 16GB or 32GB but the 8GB seems like it has plenty of memory to spare
27647,2,Amazing!,"Very easy to use and takes all the confusion out of making rice! I was a bit confused as to what was happening after I pressed ""Cook"" but Zojirushi Rice Cooker 'sang' a song when the rice was ready and it was perfect."
27754,2,The kind of book you hate to put down and don't want to end,"When I read this book many years ago when it was first published, little did I know that it would be a part of the internet. I would encourage anyone who likes adventure and self-discovery to get a copy of this book. Peter (the author) and Cooper (his dog/pal) awakened me to the possibility of one day having a journey of my own. For now though, this fantastic tale has kept my zest for reaching out to people alive and well. Someday I too will make the trip. Thanks to the author Peter Jenkins. I think you will be inspired as well. Start with this story and continue with all of his other works. Your mind will be taken to new places with each page you turn. If you enjoy discovery, I also recommend a book titled ""Blue Highways"" by William Least-Heat Moon -- a travelogue of people and places."
27853,2,"A Gift To Us, The Viewers!","A slightly screwy love affair, between a man, a woman and the woman's autistic brother (I don't mean in the incestuous, three-way way).Man and woman meet. They are both such opposites... quiet/loud, educated/not educated, quick tempered/laid back and a few more extremes thrown in for fun. Then, we add in the brother who is very upset having to share his sister. Can boyfriend and brother ever get along or will brother ruin the made-in-heaven relationship in it's budding stages.A delightful respite from all the heavy handed love affairs currently around for viewing.One of the best Independant Films I've seen. Thank God it wasn't a Major Studio film... that would surely have ruined it!"
28076,2,This is the most popular video in the house,Mary Poppins has been the most watched video in the house since I purchased it months ago. The children just love the songs and the dancing. They often get bruised from being so enthusiastic in their dancing. Excellent video for kids.
28094,2,Incredible,"Swedish Now is an incredible piece of software. This is a really good way to learn a language and this software takes advantage of everything technology has to offer in regards to language learning. It uses video, has extremely detailed audio features (you can listen to every Swedish word in the program), and uses voice analysis technology to help correct your pronunciation. When you get bored learning or feel you need to practice the Swedish you know before moving on there are some really fun and intresting games to help you practice. My impressions of Swedish Now is that it is well worth the buy and it will help you learn to speak Swedish."
28154,2,Great book,"Well, I think a lot of people have said it, so I will keep it brief. I wish there was an index. There is a lot of English explaining and no exercises or memorization drills, so the information is just thrown out there. There is a LOT of information and good tips on when and how to use things, and it's very readable. Maybe some day they will add an index???"
28197,2,La faiblesse du maillon humain,"En lisant ce livre de Mitnick, on comprend bien que l'insécurité informatique sera toujours d'actualité tant que les intervenants en charge de la protection de nos machines se focaliseront uniquement sur le volet matériel et logiciel. a quoi bon mettre des barrières si un utilisateur communique ses mots de passe par téléphone ? c'est ce qu'a bien compris Alain STEVENS, qui nous montre dans le Guide du Cyberdétective (chiron Editions, ISBN 2702707831) que des recettes de social engineering sont disponibles en libre accès sur le net."
28200,2,So interesting,"Mitnick writes a very interesting book.Sometimes a bit melodramatic, but an instant classic of a security title."
28215,2,The one King book I didn't finish...,"I have read at least a dozen titles by King including some of his best like Salem's Lot, The Stand, It, The Talisman, 11/22/63, and more. This was the only King novel that I couldn't get through. His descriptions of the terrifying attacks on the helpless protagonist (Paul Sheldon) were so thoroughly terrifying, I couldn't go on. All of which isn't to say it's not a great book. It's just that this time...for me...I couldn't finish it. A little TOO real world if you get my take."
28223,2,Informative and fun!,"If you want to learn more about German football/soccer, its history and stories, read this book. Hesse-Lichtenberger is a fantastic writer and enthusiastic fan of the sport (and not necessarily the way it is played by the Germans), who puts all his love and knowledge into this book. You will learn about the ""Schalker Kreisel"" which made one of Germany's club teams (FC Schalke 04) one of the best and most advanced teams in the world when German soccer didn't have a wimming reputation. You will learn about some of the scnadals of German soccer and about some of the forgotten stars. Hesse-Lichtenberger takes the subject seriously, but finds a light and humorous voice that makes this book entertaining and enjoyable.One of the best soccer books I have read, although readers should have some interest in learning about German soccer. Otherwise this book may be too specialized."
28304,2,Most Comfortable,"Simply the Best , has good grip and the edges won't fall over shoulders also fits firms and when needed it streches with out any difficulty. Totally in love with this."
28338,2,Terrific lightweight generator,"One of the best features of this generator is it's compact size and portability. It's perfect for on the go generating of power for small to midsize equipments like notebook computers or handheld dvd players. It's got 1200 watts total so that means it could also pack quite a punch if you need it. Overall, as long as a new and not a questionably used one is purchased, then it should work just fine."
28348,2,Love this stool,"The hospital that I gave birth in had this stool in all of its rooms. I was thrilled to find it on Amazon when searching for something to make nursing in our new rocker more comfortable - I am quite short, so I needed something for my feet to rest on. I use this stool every night in the middle of the night while nursing and rocking our baby."
28394,2,No-BS Introduction to Tarot,"Lotterhand's book is one of a handful of ""essentials"" for anyone wishing to unlock the meaning behind the Keys of the Major Arcana. The question-and-answer format gives one the feeling of sitting in on Jason's Thursday-night classes -- and such answers! While he made no claims to ""definitiveness,"" I was impressed with Lotterhand's insights to some remarkably difficult queries; those answers are mind-opening, and yet non-threatening and absolutely not spooky-kooky. This down-to-earth style is deceptively easy on a reader. Jason is adept at taking difficult concepts and presenting them simply, often summarizing with a brilliant and memorable turn of words. I especially appreciate the humor and warmth of the text. A fine first book for Tarot beginners, which will continue to yield bounteous treasure for even the most advanced student."
28407,2,My cat can no longer turn off the TV!,"This product is doing exactly what I wanted it to -- keep my cat from jumping on the off switch of my power strip and turning off the TV, cable box, etc, all in one blow. This was the biggest power strip cover that I could find, and does indeed fit over my plugs with AC adaptors. Very satisfied."
28499,2,Great harness,"The great thing about this harness is that there are multiple points that you can clip your leash to change the function of the harness. There is the traditional back clip which is great for a well behaved walker, but there is also an area on the front of the chest that you can clip your leash to to make it a more ""easy walk"" like harness, helps the dog to learn not to pull on the leash"
28533,2,Book Club Read,"Read this book for a women's book club, one of our better reads. Writer portrays eccentric characters with depth and develops connections with threads of chance and mystery. Ending opens the door for speculation and challenges your assumptions of truth and reality throughout. Left me wanting more. Very fulfilling read."
28546,2,As great as the reviews say.,This book has been reviewed extensively so I'll just add that it deserves every bit of praise. I will say that you don't have to be a science fiction fan at all to enjoy this book. I read very little from this genre but this is one of my favorite novels of all time.
28565,2,A good book about the mental aspects of trading.,"This is the best book written about the psychological and mental aspects of trading. This book hasn't got much about technical analysis, entry or exit points, but tells you how to handle trading mentally."
28618,2,Spectacular animation - Great transfer to DVD,"This is without question the best animation Disney has ever done. Many of the scenes look almost as if they somehow blended live action video as background art. After viewing the horrible grainy video transfer to DVD Disney did with Pocahontas, you will definately appreciate the fantastic job Disney did on this DVD. The sound quality is also great, with THX no less. The story is wondefully written, although it may be a bit too intense for a child under the age of 5 or 6. Tarzan is a wonderful DVD that is well worth the investment."
28732,2,Love these bottles!!,"Before purchasing these bottles I read a lot of reviews. The most common complaint was leaking and I was concerned about that, but my cousin used these bottles and highly recommended them. We started out with 3 and they worked great, so now we have enough to get us through the day with a newborn. They are wonderful! The only time they have leaked on me is when the top isn't screwed down tight enough. I haven't had any problems with the bottles when the top is tight enough. My son has no problem switching back and forth between breast and bottle either. The nipple is wide enough that it doesn't seem to be an issue. We won't be using any other type of bottle."
28847,2,Short and sweet.,"This is a pretty darn good book. Simply worded, fast read and has plenty good exercises for the beginning Wiccan. Like grounding and God and Goddess introductions. This book also makes a point to discuss cultural appropriation when choosing your pantheon (if you do so) and ethics, like the Rede, and Rule of 3. Which I think some authors are afraid to talk about, touchy subjects to some I guess."
28923,2,Dynamic Decision,"I wanted to try and find something to help my body repair itself and help improve my health. This is a product that will help me accomplish just that. To cleanse the body on the inside is as important as cleansing the body on the outside, maybe more so. I have lost 13 pounds in a month and I feel intensely better with more energy and attention span. I know this sounds too good to be true, but it works. Buy the book and get started today. You too will be amazed in my opinion."
28973,2,Position pillow,This product works well for its intended use it's just that I thought it would position the legs a different way.
29091,2,24: Season Seven,Same as usual... has you wondering who is and who isn't working for the baddies. I personally Love Keifer Sutherland for what he has brought to our TV's in the 24 series and was extremely happy to get the latest installment. Well worth getting imho. You really don't want to screw with this dude...

29178,2,Awesome coffee maker,"So many good things to say, it really is a great maker, I love everything about it. I'd tell you if there was a CON but I can't find any after 3 months of heavy brewing (at least 1 pot a day). No leaks, no weird glitches, it rocks."
29182,2,Coffee Maker,"This product is amazing, love the fact that the coffee is still warm/hot and not burnt up to 8 hours after brewing. Only complaint is that the #4 filters don't fit without folding them. But that is not enough to lower the ranking."
29240,2,An exceptional biopic,"""Ray"" is a remarkable biopic of legendary songwriter/musician Ray Charles. It avoids many of the pitfalls that bedevil most movies of this type. After all, it's difficult to synthesize the life of a very famous person into a movie that doesn't run so long an audience can't sit through it. [""Ray"" runs 2 hours, but doesn't seem long at all.] You have to resort to cliches to keep the dramatic movement going. ""Ray"" does have its cliches and its pop psychology, but these are overwhelmed by a focus on Charles' music and by Jamie Foxx's portrayal of Ray, which is so good that there simply is not another choice for this year's Best Actor Oscar.Nominated for 6 Oscars, including Best Picture, Best Actor and Best Director."
29287,2,A Great Reference For VBA,"This book has proven itself to be a great reference source for developing Office 97 integrated solutions. I have been able to provide company solutions which allow inserting and extracting of information between the Office 97 Word, Access and Outlook that has saved hours of work.This book combined with the on-line help system is esstenial for tailoring Office 97 to your companies needs."

But in this case, I will make an exception- The Jumbo Duct Tape Book made me cry.

29383,2,Some of the best Rock n roll you can come by,"During the first few moments of ""Welcome To The Jungle"" you can almost anticipate what this album is going to be like. From the police siren scream by Axl on Jungle to the very last solo on ""Rocket Queen"" this album packsa powerful punch throughout. The two guitar tandem of Izzy Stradlin and Slash rips out riffs better than almost anybody and bassist Duff Mckagan and Drummer Steve Adler keep the groove going throughout as Axl tells tales of the big city life. This is a fantastic album by any standard but the fact that it was their debut doubles its greatness. Standout Tracks like ""Sweet Child O' Mine"",""Paradise City"" and ""My Michelle"" have killer hooks riffs and lyrics. This is a must buy. Too bad this band couldn't have made more music like this."
29404,2,Good action movies,These movies were a lot of fun. I know the are not new to the screen but nice action and plot. A good value.
29490,2,Great for spicy food lovers,"I don't suffer from IBS, but I do eat a lot of spicy food that sometimes upsets my stomach. This product is great for alleviating that. Just drink some dissolved in juice afterward or before you go to bed. No more worrying about whether or not my stomach will start burning. I have gone through 2 cans so far. With the first can, for some reason, the powder wasn't dissolving well, but it still worked. The second can was much more soluble. Either way, it works!"
29565,2,SHOCKING BUT INPRESSIVE,"VON TRIER NEVER THHINKS THINGS IN ORDINARY WAYS. I DON'T FEEL TOO SHOCKING ABOUT ANTICHRIST. HOWEVER, IT'S REALLY HARD TO UNDERSTAND THE WHOLE PLOT. WHY DID CRITERION CHOOSE IT RIGHT AWAY?"
29608,2,Jackie's Back,After The Much Flawed The Tuxedo He's Back And Better Than Ever. This Is Funnier Than The First Surprisingly. It's Also Refreshing To See Jackie Chan Back As Chon Wang Say It Fast Yall And Owen Wilson As Roy O Bannon In Their First Great Movies Since Shanghai Noon. This Has References To Many Famous Figures. The Little Kids Name Was Charlie Chaplin. Arthur Conan Doyle Grew To Be A Famous Writer. Big Ben Is A Very Famous Clock In London. Every Fan Of Shanghai Noon Should See This.
29675,2,"Great Underground Band, Great Overall CD","I never heard garageland before until I heard their one song ""Get Even"" which was a song my friend downloaded and let me listen too. I heard the song once and never heard anything from them again for almost a year. It drove me crazy as I couldnt' find it in any record stores and no one I knew even heard the band before. I saw it on Amazon.com and decided to buy it. I was completely blown away after listening to the album that I listened to it again. It's such a great masterpiece from ""Love Song"" to ""End of the Night."" I am very surprised that hardly anyone has heard this band before. The cd always puts me in a good mood and definitely can change my day once I listen to it. Garageland deserves all the credit in the world for putting together a feel-good album. If you want good music, check this album out and do what the title says: DO WHAT YOU WANT!"
29688,2,"Nylon 6/6 Lock Nut, #6-32 (Pack of 100)","I orfered these to work on a game board lazy susan. Unfortunatels, they were too tall to allow turning without binding. I'll find anoter project where they can be utilized. Good quality. If I need more, I know where to get them. Thank you."
29689,2,Large and very good quality!,"Got this as a stocking stuffer for my husband - it was much too big to fit in a stocking, I was delighted with the size! It's also excellent quality. My two-year-old adores it and insists on sleeping with the 'cweepy cuh-fweh-du.'"
29698,2,Excellent Quality,"I purchased this to replace the old ones I had. They are better quality and stick a whole lot better. It's a little pricey but you get what you pay for. Excellent buy, I will return when I need to."
29737,2,Better than Caddyshack 1!,"Why? Caddyshack 1, although emmesly hilaruios, didn't hold much of a storyline. They just jumped right in! If Danny died I wouldn't have cared. But here's the thing. It grows on you. You start noticing things.In Caddyshack 2 Jackie Mason was a improved Rodney Dangerfeild."
29840,2,Highly Reccommended,"This Cd is very good, if you are having problems with life this is for you. I love it!"
29851,2,"""Welcome To THEIR Life""","Rather than continue on with the happy, spunky songs that are found on the first CD ""No Pads, No Helmet...Just Balls,"" Simple Plan has taken the opportunity to show that they can write lyrics that are meaningful (not that the first ones weren't) and mix them with great instrumentation. The new CD ""Still Not Getting Any..."" contains many great songs, most of which say things that matter and might possibly make a difference to a lot of people. This CD is a perfect example of- in this case- musicians that prove they can grow and change their direction somewhat but never actually change themselves or their overall style. I recommend this CD to anyone who wants to be known for having good taste in music."
29923,2,Lovely,"This scent is tricky. I've heard it described as a green scent- but when I first sprayed it I immediately associated it with Givenchy's Ysatis, which strikes me as much more of a yellowy-amber scent. The initial spray is overpowering and chemically. Its quite awful really, all ginger and chemicals. Yuck. Wait a few minutes though and it calms down well with a very unusual and yet feminine ginger/floral scent. An hour later it smells lovely, feminine, and soft, more of a white scent than anything else. It doesnt last TOO long, maybe 5-6 hours but its a very nice casual scent and unlike anything I've ever smelled before. Recommended for anyone who'd like a unique and striking casual perfume and are willing to wait a few minutes for it to settle, then Cabotine is for you."
29971,2,Fresh insight and observation,"I am re-reading ""Buck Naked Faith"" now, and I am just as engaged as the first time. I find myself saying, ""Yeah, that's right"" or ""Humph"" often because Sandras crystallizes age old (and new) spiritual insight on subjects often thought about by many.I recommend this book for just about any person over the age of about thirteen or fourteen. There are some adult situations discussed, but nothing gratuitous.You will be challenged when you read this book."
30068,2,"Carries the Torch of ""Far Cry"" Well","Summary: This first-person shooter, like its predecessor, ""Far Cry"", is based on a ""single soldier in a science-fction scenario"" plot.Pros:- Graphics are very nice (Note: my PC has an Intel Q6600, lots of RAM and an NVIDIA 8800GT, running Windows XP).- Computer-controlled characters are smarter than those in ""Far Cry"".- Simulated environment is extremely ""open"": It's even more ""go anyhere, do anything"" than ""Far Cry"".- Simulated objects behave more realistically than before.Cons:- Computer controlled characters still occasionally do stupid things.The bottom line: If you liked ""Far Cry"", then you will like this game (if you've got the hardware to run it)."
30169,2,The Best,"Love this! This is a very exciting CD set. Colonial Radio Theater does a great job with this story. I have read Perry Mason stories for years and Perry is just like the book...Sorry Paymond Burr! CRT never disappoints. All the dramatizations from Colonial Radio Theater are the best-you can listen to them many, many times If I could I would rate this 10 stars!"
30186,2,Good Book,My daughter and I enjoy books about dragons. We read everynight for atleast an hour. I even find myself reading ahead after story time to see what happens next.
30189,2,"Very practical, very useful","An excellent book with very practical examples, especially for JSPs. Explains the concepts of Tag libraries very well. Not as good strictly for Servlets but overall an excellent resource for JSP's. Hope the authors comeup with new books to cover Java Beans, EJB's Struts etc."
30238,2,Very popular hat,"This Green hat is the nicest Red Sox hat that I have ever owned. I bought two last week, already had one (2 years old) and they were shipped here to PEI, Canada in 2 days !! I wore my older hat to The Dominican last Spring and could have sold it ten times to the Red Sox fans and people down there.They were roaring at me , Hey Papi, Hey Manny, how much for your hat. I looked for more than a year to find another one, and so happy to find them on Amazon.com.Go Sox,Boomer G."
30279,2,Heart breaking to know a 13 year old is hooked on Heroine.,This story broke my heart and made me realize the problems Amrica is facing today. To hear about the life of a 13 year old who is addicted to heroine and has done many other drugs frightened me tremendously.
30403,2,Some comments on the Grapes of Wrath,"This book was pretty good, but I think it could have laid back on the details. Overall, though, I think it was an O.K. book. I recommed it for high- school readers."
30407,2,An epic American classic.,"I can see why some may consider this book to be a jab at capitalism. It definitely doesn't hold back when it comes to demonizing banks and business. If you can set that aside (which I think most people can), this novel is truly one of the greatest American tales of all time. It would take a cold-heart person to not be moved by the story of the Joad family. My favorite Steinbeck was always Of Mice and Men, but THe Grapes of Wrath easily took its place the from the second I finished it. You must read this amazingly well-written novel."
30454,2,farberware coffee pot,"pot is well made. i prefer old style with glass percolater top insert. makes coffee fast and flavorfull. good price. i would prefer american made. repair parts unavailable ,not listed in phone book or online pc"
30501,2,Concise and Factual!,I have really enjoyed this book. She is very clear and factual! It is great to get the facts without a feminist twist to it!
30557,2,Not bad.,"My son is 5. He and his cousin each received these hats. His cousin is also 5. The quality is pretty ok. The only negative is the shape of the hat. The one pictured is basically perfect, while the two we received have a bit of an unusual fit. But, the kids seem to enjoy them, and most of the adults that have seen them made comments about them being pretty cool.We paid $19 for each hat. I would say $13 would be more appropriate."
30559,2,Speedy,I received this overnight with 2 Day Shipping. Bought as GoldBox deal and am very satisfied. Too bad Gold Box doesn't allow you to order more than one item.
30579,2,Buy them!!,"These are the best refried beans available. I will never buy canned again. My husband never used to like beans when I made homemade burritos..he would only eat the meat. Now, he eats beans and meat. I've passed bags out to all of my friends and they all love them too."
30671,2,Great Book that every homeowner should have!,This book is wonderfull. Full of great tips for anyone selling thier home or just looking for inexpensive ways do update the home they want to stay in!
30682,2,Finally!,"I've tried all the rest...finally found the best!Thick, sturdy and ABSORBENT pads. They do notneed to be changed constantly!"
30695,2,I loved this book!,This book is my favorite book. I like the way that Judy Blume writes books that I can relate to. I think that all girls should read this book. It has given me insperation for life.
30703,2,"Very cheap, very newborn.",This doll was only $3... for that much money you can not expect any better. I would say the doll is worth that price easily or more. It's a small doll (which is what we were after for our 2 year old. It does look like a wrinkly little newborn... alien square head and all haha! It would be nice if you could find an outfit or two for a doll this size for an older child. That is my only real complaint.
30722,2,It doesn't get any better than this,"Cruelty will get you nowhere...I've been a big supporter of Cyndi since the very beginning. I wasn't real Gun Ho when I found out that she was doing a standards CD. I couldn't of been more wrong. Her intrepretation is flawless, and the songs show us a Cyndi we're not used to hearing. She must of needed a long good rest after this, because she drains every ounce of emotion into this CD. Her voice is honestly captivating and reaches amazing levels that few out there could match. Not only is she so giving to her fans in her outpouring of gratitude for all the millions who have supported her (I've met her, and she is the most incredibly down to earth celebrity I've ever had the chance to meet), but she is an immensely talented singer whose voice will be as enduring and strong as her fan base."
30747,2,Planet Earth Calling...?,"My copy is an 1987 Garland release (Dunhill), titled ""Planet Earth Calling"", with different, bizarre album cover art. Strange. A solid album, with smokin' guitar work by Ho Young Kim...who is he, and what else has he done?"
30758,2,Same old same old,"People say the market has changed...it hasn't. People say times are different...they aren't. Dreman gives you the facts and backs them up with historical evidence that the same mistakes and assumptions are made over and over. There is nothing here that every rational investor shouldn't know, but people still buy into the ""next big thing"" style of investing. This book is well written, easy to follow, and Dreman repeats the facts you need to hear twice. It simply explains another piece of the investing puzzle. Classic stuff that should be on every investors shelf."
30787,2,love it.,I would buy this in every color if I could. I absolutely love it. It fits great and is so much more comfy then blankets. All winter babies need one!
30856,2,Wait until you hear the SACD Stereo/Surround/Hybrid Disc,"The CD was great, but this is a truly spectacular recording in the SACD version. While the selections tilt the balance more towards the secular, one of the most richly rewarding large versions of Silent Night are included in the ""A Christmas Flourish"" medley, all grounded by the deep pedal tones of the C. B. Fisk pipe organ. The Festival Fanfare for Christmas is great fun.This disc certainly makes a joyful noise and will give your sound system a full workout!"
30867,2,great cape,This cape is very durable. I wear it often. It is comfortable and I would buy more from the seller.
30893,2,Where Are We??,"In our Freshman Engilsh class we were assigned to read the book Night by Elie Wiesel. When we began to read Night it seemed to be very dragged on, but with in about 15 pages it started to get more intresting. Soon after that we could not take our eyes away from the book. We were so into the book that none of us wanted to put it down. This book gave us a vivid feeling of how the Jews felt while going through the Holocaust. The episode that captured our atttention the most was when the Jews where getting beaten. Jews felt unhuman, dogs were treated better than them. We rate this book a 5 because it was such a good book and we would love to read the sequals to Night by Elie Wiesel."
30902,2,Another MUST HAVE from Paul Brett Johnson!,"Johnson's engaging and humorous illustrations are once again paired with a kid-friendly story in his newest release. The animals who tell this action-packed story are the main attraction in Johnson's glorious, detailed, colorful, and animated tale of a hound-dog maitre d'/cook who loses his meatball (""when somebody sneezed"")! This book, along with Johnson's previous, award-winning books, is a real hit with young children and works great with group story-time readings since a sing-a-long is included in the back of the book. Johnson has written and illustrated another winner!!"
30917,2,McReynolds Greek/English NT with Concordance,"This is an interlinear with a built in concordance. The New Testament translation is NRSV. There are Strong's numbers over the Greek texts in the interlinear. Handy and thorough, one of my favorite tools."
31005,2,From Scandavia???,"Well, i know this may seem picky to some, but I was sent True Blood season 3 from Scandinavia or something. It has thse weird ratings on the back of the box, and its packaged in a blu ray box that is the same size of a regualr BR movie. All the discs are in their, it's just not the same as my True Blood season 1, and 2 boxes, you know like the fold out thing where each disc is separated from each other? I'm not sure why I was sent this version and not the US regular version, but I would have rather had the standard, fold out package. Oh well."
31011,2,so far so good!,"I have this stroller for 2 months and so far I am pretty happy with it/I have used it in malls, airports,planes, beaches,parks /easy to use/easy to fold/good on bumby surfaces/stains come out/easy to carry/good 5-point harness/recline position is fine/small basket comes in handycanopy top is a bit flimsy but hey it is an inexpensive umbrella stoller.I plan on buying another to keep at Grandma's houseI bought this stroller in April 2005, it is now Dec 2006 and it is still in great shape!"
31019,2,I have waited a lifetime,As I'm sure that a lot of Dune fans have for the continued stories of this wonderful sci-fi world. Brian and Kevin work well together and I think it pushes the writing well to a point that is very entertaining.
31114,2,Not stable enough,"Big monitor stand! Polished steel looks great. But it's not stable enough when I placed my printer on it, it vibrated a lot when printing..."
31117,2,Haul It Out Every Holiday,"I especially like the timelines in this very helpful planning book for holiday meals. The author has a friendly, informal style of writing which I enjoy."
31118,2,Very Useful,This is a great cookbook. It follows the same format as Saving Dinner. There are dinners typically associated with holidays (all sorts of holidays) in this cookbook. The recipes do not call for any strange ingredients and they are easy and come out with great results. This is a great cookbook and I'm glad I ordered it.Enjoy.
31126,2,"On Time, as Described","Book arrived shrink wrapped, in excellent condition, on time and as described. Would order from this supplier again."
31305,2,"Great songs, but too repetitive","Like Berry, many of the tracks on this album sound alike.That said, it's classic."
31341,2,Hicks' urban hillbilly jive at its peak,"One of the short list of albums I'd be marooned on a desert island with, I've worn out two copies of the LP and one CD so far. Particular highlights are the flawless vocal arrangement on ""Canned Music"", Sid Page's legendary violin solo on ""I Scare Myself"", the gorgeous strings work on ""Moody Richard"" and Naomi Eisenberg's writing and singing on ""Presently In The Past""...."
31349,2,best book I've found on the subject,I love that this book clearly explains the physical processes of detoxification in an easy to understand way. It allows me to understand so my of the recommendations I've gotten from otherpeople to improve my health.
31445,2,You have to know what you're watching,"You have to know that ST2 is a very low-budget film. Saying that, the set are below expectations but the acting is good, the animation is amazing (better than the first film), and the storyline is predictable but good. I enjoyed watching the film and plan on watching it again sometime in the future.It does not add to the storyline of the first film, it actually feels like it belongs more in the animated tv series than as a sequel to the film.If you don't like direct to video movies then this movie is not for you, but don't be afraid to give Starship Troopers 2 a chance."
31613,2,AN INSPIRING BOOK!,This book is a piece of art! The spaces shown and the combinations of color and texture are extraordinary. I recommend this book to every person who loves to obtain atmospheres full of power and quality. This book is a great source of inspiration!¡Este libro es una obra de arte!. Los espacios que se muestran y las combinaciones del color con las texturas son extraordinarias. Recomiendo este libro a toda persona que quiera lograr ambientes llenos de poder y calidad. ¡Este libro es una gran fuente de inspiración!
31629,2,Very good,"This game is similar to the old Mike Tyson Punch Out. It's a little hard at first, but after a while you get the technique down and you can win. Use your jabs a lot, watching your stamina meeter (green one) and remember to cover up/dodge the punches when your stamina is low. Save the upper cuts for when you really need to put the opponent away. I scored a KO in the first round once, which is pretty tough to do (there was 1 second left). The computer players have special moves (while you don't, just like MTPO) and you need to cover up or duck from those moves to win against the tougher opponents. It would get 5 stars if there was more depth to the game and the opponents were more real, they look more like cartoon characters than boxers. I also wish they let you pick the type of character you can be (you are white with green hair)."
31705,2,"The Network Architecture Design Handbook : Data, Voice, Mult",I found The Network Architecture Design Handbook to be one of the best books on the subject of hybrid and LAN\WAN networking. I highly recommend it to anyone who is seriously interested in learning more or just looking to expand his or her knowledge base in this fascinating field.
31711,2,"I could have lived without the ""filler""...","Well, sometimes, the old ways are best. Some times, picking what fits on an LP forces choices that really prove to be wise. The extra, ""lost"" songs that were rescued from the tape vaults or from other oddball LPs don't, in my opinion, add much to a pure, utter classic LP, per its initial incarnation. I would love a disc with the original cuts in the correct order, because such a disk (like ""Out of the cool"") is an integrated whole -- more than the sum of its astonishing parts. I do like hearing the previously lost bits, but instead of forcing this overstuffed, clunky playlist on us, how about a two-disk set, with the original LP playlist on one, and the lost stuff on the second.But I complain too long. The original ""Individualism"" is a colossal phenomenon. Gil Evans IS individual, and what a loss that he's gone."
31729,2,Vitamis don't hurt you,"I ordered this product for my husband. No special change yet, but that's a set of vitamis, so vitamins can help, they don't hurt to take. We keep trying to have a baby, but no luck so far."
31731,2,It worked for me,I had irregular periods after taking birth control for years. I was trying to get pregnant but was not having any luck because I couldn't tell when I was ovulating. I asked my doctor if she thought FertilAid was safe and/or effective and she said it couldn't hurt. I was pregnant after only 1 month of taking it! I don't know if it was because of the pills or if it was just the right time but I ovulated on time after taking the pills. If you have irregular periods this is worth a try.
31794,2,Excellent book !,Brought for my 15 y/ o history living daughter. She absolutely loved the book ! Keen to read all authors other books.
31815,2,Speechless,"The Wanderer provides words for that feeling of being speechless. Combining a pleasing and talented instrumental base with the story of the man making sense of his thoughts, OAR was able to connect with all of those things that I have left unsaid and bring them to light. This is an amazing album composed by an extremely talented group. Purer than the other two albums, The Wanderer feeds off of emotion."
31851,2,Excellent!!,"Well Skinless are back and boy does this cd crush. They have went for a much cleaner sound and in doing so have sacrificed some of their brutality. This is not to say that the cd is not heavy. By God it's extremely heavy. Songs like the title track and 'Escalate Discord' will have you throwing your furniture around the house. The opening track has Sherwood doing some Fear Factory vocals at one point. It's very subtle and effective. My only gripes is the snare gets lost in some of the blast and the cd cover. Oh my word the cover is probably one of the worst in Death Metal history. It looks like a 3rd grader constructed it. It is laughable and really quite atrocious. The guy w/the metal wings looks like Mr. Burns, from the Simpsons. With such a killer album name they could have done alot better. Other then that get the cd and blast it to annoy your pesky neighbors!!"
31914,2,"Orando con gozo, no por obligación","Este libro es muy ameno. Te llama a la oración que nace, no de un sentido de deber, sino de amor y gratitud. No es otro manual sobre cómo cumplir con una obligación religiosa, sino un llamado a intimar con el Creador del universo. No te sentirás culpable de tener una vida de oración pobre, sino que te sentirás inspirado a profundizar más en tu relación con Dios. Y te ayuda a crecer en la Palabra también, pues su exégesis es sana.El Dr. Cornwall ha escrito más de 50 libros de gran relevancia para el cuerpo de Cristo. Te aseguro que disfrutarás éste."
31930,2,Excellent sound,"I should say I am happy with this speaker set. The product delivers a great sound, well balanced, and good looks. They are tuned for a deeper sound and subjectively miss some of the high range - I use them with a small subwoofer which for basic movies maybe a bit redundant. Combining with subwoofer provides for a reacher experience, especially in a hip hop repertoire. These speakers are also a bit larger than typical surround sets - on the wall they are heavy - somewhere in the middle between a surround speaker and an average bookshelf. The build quality is superb, very expensive looking - I kept the surrounds without the grille on and they look quite professional. Yet again, I should reiterate that I am happy with the set and for the price the performance is amazing and you get a great quality surround system. I recommend this item to anyone in the market."
32044,2,This Item Is Totally AWSOME!!,"This toy is so cool. The day I got it I opened it up to find tons of pieces and instructions. I spent a lot of time just building the models that were in my head. This is sooo cool. If you buy this, you are NOT wasting you'r money."
32159,2,Good Job,"It is a good product, the shipment was on time without problems the product was in good conditions. The lens is just like you can see on the web."
32176,2,Suprisingly GOOD!!!,"I haven't been much of a Kanye fan. This is actually the first CD I purschased of his. I'm not even going to try and compare Kanye vs. 50 because I feel that they are just two different types of music. I was really feeling the song ""stronger"" and decided with all the hype I would check out his CD. Definelty worth buying. All the songs are good and you find yourself listening to the complete album without having to skip most song, like I find myself having to do for so many other artisit.So putting aside Kanye's full of himself attitude, which I can careless for, the album is still worth buying."
32181,2,"Great album, definetly Kanye's best so far...","Very nice album. It isn't like College Dropout, which is a future classic, sort of like Jay-Z's Reasonable Doubt. Kanye has a different swagger on this album, and the production is great. The whole album is like an experiment, but it worked out better than Late Registration, his sophomore album. All the tracks were amazing, probably except Barry Bonds, featuring Lil Wayne. Drunk and Hot Girls is also not as great, but I'm growing on it and the sample is getting to me.Hot album, definetly worth buying."
32186,2,Perfect fit,"Regular size tights must be made for skinny short people because I am average size and a large regular costume tight never had enough material to make it all the way around my bottom and would slip down the entire time I was wearing them. The 1X in these tights, although a little big, had plenty of room and do not constantly roll up or down and are very comfortable. These went great with my Alice costume"
32210,2,Love this movie!,This is a great musical for the whole family! Timeless classic that I've been watching since I was a kid.
32295,2,The all-time classic of colonial India,"On the splendid visual backdrop of turn-of-the-century India, 'A Passage to India' is a timeless and classic masterpiece of English literature, poetically exploring relations between rulers and subjects, men and women, Englishmen and Indians. Forster's lucid style and unsurpassed technical ability comes together in a carefully crafted and delicately balanced work. With great sensivity and sincere love of the country, he conveys to the reader the full emotional spectrum of the cultural mosaic of India, from the most deeply felt pious devotion to various religious duties, to the unfathomable chasm of misunderstanding between natives and colonial rulers. On an higher impersonal level, Forster weaves an exact and finely constructed plot with almost supernatural undertones, as if the characters are drawn imperceptibly and unknowingly towards their fates by forces within the land itself"
32352,2,it wears well,"I've had this dvd for a few years. When I am in good shape I can do the whole thing. When I'm out of shape I can only do half. It is long and strenuous, but a calm practice, with a great teacher.Rodney has great control, and that is inspiring."
32376,2,The Golden Compass,"Brent Henderson's Review For The Golden CompassIt was a great book because it was very adventurous and it made sense, although the ending was kind of sad. It was long, but not too long. I read the whole ""His Dark Materials"" series, but this is my favorite. I couldn't put it down!"
32469,2,very romantic Jane Austen Classic,sense and sensebility;I did not expect to like this series.Because I am hooked onEmma Thompsons movie.But it took me with suprise.I actually enjoyed it.I have watched it twice already and will watch it again many times.this series is more detailed which is good.Persuasion;I was suprised how much I liked it especially Anne.she is great and her lover is very handsome indeed!They look at each other so lovingly.very much romantic.Dont like the kissing at the end though.They didnt have open lip kissing then I dont think/.it takes away the romantism.anyway.lovely movie.I will watch it again for sure.
32521,2,Sequence-Great Game,We're addicted. A friend recommended it - I bought it a year later and we play it every night. We play with our neighbors and also our six year old. Our six year old is able to get the strategy and wins sometimes. A great game for two people or six people.
32522,2,great game,Great game really had not had time to play it much but glad to know it is in our home when ever we get the chance to play.
32523,2,Great Family Fun,"We have this game and played with my twin sister and her family, our daughter and her family and our son and his family. They loved it so much that I purchased 3 games, one for each of them for Christmas as a family gift. The thing that we love about this game is it is for any age."
32526,2,sequence is an interesting game,Deluxe SequenceWe found this game and have enjoyed playing it. It combines the luck of the draw and a lot of strategy.
32609,2,This is one nice cd.,"Nas has done it again. This cd is all that. It starts off with classic lines and clips from his past songs, which reminds you of the skills that this kid has. I have to say that i think every track on this cd was really good. He goes from mainstream hip hop like ""hate me now"" with puff daddy to hardcore stuff like ""life is what you make it"" featuring DMX. There is even a track where he raps over an R. Kelly song. Nas has put out probably the best album since Biggie Smalls's ""Life after Death"".Best songs- Life is what you make it, Nas is like, Hate me now, Undying love, small world, and Big things"
32740,2,Gundam Wing 1/144 Model Kit Zero One,The item arrived right on time is a good kit for not being a high grade kit It's a must have for any gundam wing fan.
32796,2,Good stuff,"Well worth the money. Gas mileage went up 2.5mpg and there is a slightly noticeable increase in power. Easy to install, only took a few minutes."
32832,2,use this every trip and it works,I've become dependent on this to level up. I use it every time I go out now. Would recommend this as a quick way to level.
32833,2,Fine Woodworking,This was a gift. It was well received. I believe this was his favorite wood working magazine. He enjoyed it.
32983,2,This book will get you thinking,I enjoyed this book so much that I went out and did quite a bit of research on my own about the Japanese leagues. It is entertaining and at the same time you will be educated. I recommend this one to anyone who loves baseball or is interested in the Japanese culture.
32999,2,Very much a Caper,"I must admit is was a bit suprised to find out that Darius was secretly working for Erik. Even more so suprised to find out that Erik was had took someone else's identity. He almost would have pulled it off, however he was going up against Dirk Pitt."
33037,2,"Different, but still very good.","I haven't listened to this album much, but I've been through every track once. It is a bit different from the last album, but one thing is the same for sure... the amazing instrumentals. George's voice is a little different.. he sounds older (because he IS omg!!1) But Wade and Dallas still do some singing (entire songs too omggg!!11!) and they sound even better than the last album. I'd say if you are a fan of Alexisonfire, or just someone looking to buy a good album, then pick this up. 4 out of 5, just because so far, I liked the last album a little bit more."
33066,2,warm warm and warm,"william joyce's illustrations make this one of my very favorite books: it is the book i always give as a baby shower gift. ANYONE can give ""goodnight moon"" but this book is special. the first 5 or 6 times i read it to my son i cried at the last line. i like how the FATHER is the one who comforts the boy (on the last page) and it is the mother who looks on lovingly. simply a wonderful, cozy book, if ever there was one."
33204,2,A Thousand Bird Sites,"I am a casual birder, and found this book to be very valuable in increasing my knowledge of birds and birding, not so much for the books content itself, but what it directs you to. It is full of web sites devoted to birds, and gives a review of each site so you don't waste your time going to a site you may not be interested in. It is a valuable resource, not only for beginners, but for the advanced birder as well. I highly recommend it."
33376,2,Amazing Trick and Easy Too!,These linking rings are awesome and they work just like I have seen other magicians perform. They do come with instructions and are well made out of steel or something. I was able to perform within minutes and amazed my family.
33393,2,Really enjoyed Pilgrim's Progress: Journey to Heaven,My wife and I really enjoyed this movie and was really impressed by how good the special effects were for a low budget film. The acting was good too and of course the story is outstanding.
33400,2,Bryson Again Travels to Successville with his The Lost Continent,"Thematic and organizational similarities to Steinbeck's Travels With Charley and William Least Heat Moon's Blue Highways are obvious, but Bryson takes The Lost Continent into territory scarcely traveled by Steinbeck and Least Heat Moon. You see, Bryson laces humor liberally throughout his travel memoirs. The other writers' travelogues about adventures and people encountered on American roadways had less humor. That's not to say that Bryson's book surpasses those of the great, earlier writers in this genre; Bryson's approach is merely true to Bryson's chuckle-packed narrative style. Therefore, since I find Bryson's humor and storytelling so irresistible, I feel this book is a great read."
33433,2,Bring Me To Life won't make you feel dead inside...,"WoW I am not a fan of this genre, so this was actually the first album that I bought and I truly loved it. This CD doesn't have many tracks, but big things come in small pacakges. I'd rather get 10-tracks that sound good then a 20-track CD with not much on it."
33464,2,Really Cool!,"First i have to say that i'm a pop music lover, Britney, Christina, Etc. but this album is amazing considering that i don't like rock music, i was inspired to buy it when i fist heared BRING ME TO LIFE, then GOING UNDER and now MY INMORTAL which is an amazing song!!! I think if you're a pop music lover, you gonna love this album, even when is not really pop!"
33525,2,Invaluable Reference Work,"This book belongs in every occultist's library. Cunningham has left no stone unturned in his presentation of correspondences and substitutions. The book consists of several sections, each devoted to a specific topic, i.e., incenses, soaps, oils, brews, etc. Each section is alphabetically subdivided by purpose, astrological and plantetary influences, etc. Included for the adventurous are some recipies from older grimoires, along with safer modern blends aimed at the same goals. The incense chapter alone is worth the price of the book. After reading it, you'll never be dependent upon headshop joss sticks and cones again. Also included is a listing of sources for materials. In short, this book is an invaluable reference work, and belongs on every practicing magicians's bookshelf."
33556,2,Totally unique!,"This book is a funny anti-war adventure story, but also so much more. It gives the reader an excellent sense of what it might have been like to live in the Austrian Empire in 1914-15. I know it sounds strange, but after reading this, Kafka begins to make sense. Read this book once for sheer entertainment, but then read it again and give it some thought. It's worth it!"
33557,2,5 Stars all the way!,The three earlier reviews pretty much say it all. I agree 100% and wanted to add another 5 star rating.
33576,2,Patriot Games,"Jack Ryan tries to stop an IRA fringe group from carrying out an assassination attempt on English royals and is subsequently brought back into the CIA in order to save his now threatened family. Patriot Games is a very good movie. The visuals are good, and the story is full of little twists and turns as well. If you have never seen it you're really missing out."
33596,2,Appealed To The Masses,"I enjoyed this when it came out, just as millions of other folks did. It had a nice feel to it, good humor, great music and it didn't offend, from believer to atheist. It even had some action scenes. Many movies which combine genres (i.e. action and comedy) wind up successes. It's not a bad formula.Although Whoopi Goldberg is the undeniable star of this movie, Kathy Najimy as ""Sister Mary Patrick"" almost steals the show as the bubbly nun. However, always a sucker for a pretty and wholesome face, I preferred Mary Wickes as ""Sister Mary Lazarus."" She had this shy countenance to her before blossoming with her voice. Maybe that's why she had the name Lazarus as her personality rose from the dead."
33604,2,Better than the costco stuff,"Got a good deal on it, its popular, tastes good, and was shipped and arrived on time. Thanks!"
33636,2,Pretty good,"I didn't like the taste at first when I was doing 1 scoop per cup of milk, but I found that more is better. I like the mixture 2 scoops per 1.25 cups of milk, blended. Any more and it stops dissolving completely."
33750,2,HPI Servo Gear Set - SF-2,"HPI Servo Gear Set - SF-2,I bought this product to control my toy because it had the previous sweep, excellent product"
33756,2,Should be read by all the warmongers out there!,"This is among the oldest and saddest stories of all mankind's blunders. Exactly, what can modern (and ancient) weaponry do to one man, and one man's body? You can learn by reading this, the story of a survivor, who has only his brain left after his participation in the ""Great War"". Slowly, this person realizes his predicament. There were nearly 10 million dead from this abomination of a war, but this soldier was among the 20 million injured. Must reading for high school youth, but certainly not on the recommended reading list of any national military force. Read it and weep!"
33772,2,True simmers will especially appreciate this addition!,"FINALLY! All of us simmers have been waiting for the chance to play with a family AWAY from the home! The houses are great, but sometimes a Sim needs a change of scenery :) That's where the downtown comes in. You can change the stores, decide what should be sold, and basically do whatever you want! My only wish would be that it would give more empty lots for development. Other than that, it's great!"
33782,2,Pretty good... but...,"Not one of those books that you can't put down. The story once you get reading moves along pretty well, but it just lacks excitment. I would compare it to a gothic mystery maybe. I for one liked the soccer scenes, since I used to be a soccer parent. Anyway, this would probably be a good book to take on vacation or read on a stormy day."
33807,2,Simply one of the finest novels of the 20th century.,Brims with invention on every page. Recommended to anyone interested in fiction. Buy it in hardcover it is a novel you will want to re-read.
33842,2,Major League,Great movie and great price! It's wonderful to be able to download it on your Kindle and watch it when you are ready to.
33890,2,Another Step Re-issue,Another Step by Kim Wilde quality is amazing while sounding vibrant. Comparing the new sound to my original old album the sounds is so flat. Hope they do something about Kim's remaining releses between 1990-1994 soon to be re-issued because they bore the hell out of me their so FLAT. I regreted buying those 1990-1994 used Cd's 2yrs. ago. I don't listen to them anymore.Reviewed by Desiree LaVey
33922,2,A classic for all Christians!,This book has the time tested truth that only someone that has walked closely with the Lord could know. You will read this book for the rest of your life!
33943,2,Dedicated to Everyone Woman,"This book is great for every woman, girl, and men who want to understand them. It not often you read a book about what a woman truly is according to the word of God. It amazing to see that we woman have the same nature of God and when she explains it, it makes you so proud to be a woman. The love of God for woman is evident throughout every page. This book tears down all the lies of how the world defines woman and reveals the truth! A must read!! Every female should have this book!"
33978,2,Meat grinder good plunger not,"We just tried our meat grinder and following the previous reviewers suggestions cut the pork into strips and partialy froze the pork. No problem grinding with the large holes the first time, however when we passed the pork through a second time it took significantly longer. The plunger is not very effiecent, the groud pork kept coming up the sides of the plunger and we had to keep pushing it down, this was very tedious and time consuming! The plunger does not fit the hopper and we had a very hard time. Any sugestions would be appreciated."
34066,2,NOT FOR THE CEREBRALLY CHALLENGED,"ONE OF ALL-TIME FUNNIEST MOVIES IN THE GALAXY. NAILS THE CATHOLICS, THEN THE PROTESTANTS, AND THAT'S JUST FOR STARTERS. NOTHING AND NO ONE IS SACRED. A LESSON IN SARCASM, OR AS MARGE SIMPSON WOULD SAY, 'VERY NICE.' HAVE FUN!"
34136,2,Very good.,Couldn't put this book down. Just wanted to get to the end. Forgot how much I liked the way the King writes.
34144,2,My Favorite S. King Story,"I've read everything published by Stephen King, and this story is by far my favorite. What makes this my favorite story is how the tension of life vs. death is constant, (stop walking and you die) so you don't want to stop reading, because you have to know which of the likeable and unlikable characters avoids the ever watching guards, and which ones tire and pay the ultimate price. The story is a metaphor for life, in that life also is like a long road you must keep walking on, or die. Also, `The Long Walk' is not as 'over the top' in unreal horror as SK's usual."
34187,2,A little something for everyone,"Very broad in its scope with enough depth to deal with the fundamentals while pointing the reader in the right direction for a more detailed treatment of the subject matter. Could be used as a text or reference book, or simply read as I chose, to broaden ones knowledge. Contains a good overview of the tools and techniques of radio astronomy. A fair bit of math employed, but not overwhelming to the educated reader. Reading level is geared toward a 3rd or 4th year undergrad in physics/astronomy but would also be useful as a primer for graduate level students or the serious amateur. Good book at a good price!"
34222,2,Dark and gore ANIME,"This anime is the second of D's adventures. The animation is much better than in the first one. I would say that this story is mixture between ""BLADE' and ""Bram Stokers Dracula"".Now for the DVD itself. The sound is pretty good except that the music is pretty loud compared to the lyrics. The features are all pretty interesting. The only and biggest problem is:THERE IS NO ORIGINAL AUDIO TRACK IN JAPANESE which is unforgivable. Even if the english dubbing is not bad it is still no match for the japanese version!"
34224,2,geat anime,"very well done and excellent, over all. i may have missed an explaination of 2 characters but i enjoy the aspect of showing the time in which D has been in the world"
34233,2,nearly superior anime,"Whether you are new to anime or have been a long time viewer of anime, Vampire Hunter D is a sure win! Everything from the characters to the dark feel of the movie is done right. I won't spoil the plot for anyone who hasn't seen this though I will say that Vampire Hunter D is not by any means your typcial horror flick of blood thirsty vampires. I haven't read the book that this movie is based on so I can't compare the film to the book. I do wish though that the movie was a bit longer than 85 minutes but trust me when I say that the amount of time doesn't take away from the story or the viewing pleasure for that matter. As for the dvd features, I think there could have been a more detailed featurette though the features that are on the disk aren't bad."
34296,2,"Tess is an imperfect protagonist, but she's improving.","This is the third of the Tess Monaghan books. Mysteries are often filled with cardboard characters and one or two well developed characters. Laura Lippman doesn't work that way. All her characters are imperfect, but then, so are real people. The characters in this, and the other two novels in this series are interesting and have twists and turns in their characteristics that are as amusing as are the twists and turns of the plots. Normally, I don't identify with female protagonists, but Tess is such an interesting person that even a straight guy such as myself enjoys her point of view.I recently had the opportunity to meet Laura Lippman when she came around to the local library to talk to her fans. She's also an interesting character."
34314,2,The third book in the 'Sharpe' series that I have read.,"Having obtained so much pleasure from reading the first three 'Sharpe' novels, I am now committed to read all twenty one bookd in the series"
34316,2,SunPro Tachometer,"I purchased this product because I wanted a shift light that I could set. When I'm winding out gears, I don't want to take my eyes off the road. With a shift light,I can keep my eyes on the road and know exactly when to shift.Plus it's a handsome and effective instrument.Satisfied Customer"
34322,2,Great product at great price,I've been really happy with this product. I'm particularly pleased that it's produced from already harvested fish parts that would otherwise be wasted. (There is occasionally a fish aftertaste but I'm not sure that's avoidable with any salmon oil softgels.)
34351,2,Garmin Nuvi 200,"great product for price, does everything you need if you just want directions, no fancy add ons, does what you need for a great price"
34364,2,Replacement for OE on 2005 Toyota Solara,"These bulbs are noticeably better than those originally in the vehicle. The life span remains to be seen; hopefully longer than the tech rep indicated (1 year). Installation was easy.Additional information (1/7/2011): in the fall of 2010, the left bulb failed, yielding roughly two and one-half years of superior lighting. Regular bulbs seem to last far longer. Note that I don't drive much in the dark. Not sure that I would buy these again."
34384,2,The Best Beatles Story,"When I first was introduced to the Beatles music, I loved it right away because of the sound and mood it gave. I was so impressed with the fab 4 that I went to the library as soon as possible to find out a little about them. I happened to come across the best Beatles story available. The Love You Make told each detail as someone living the story would see it...that's because the author did live it. The Peter Brown from 'The Ballad of John and Yoko' wrote the book. I was hooked till the end. Since then, I've read several other books about the Beatles, but none have come close to being as good as this one. If you want to know the true story of the Beatles, this is the book you should choose!"
34418,2,FINALLY! A Good Mainstream Rap-Rock CD..,"I am usually not a fan of the nu-metal/rap-rock movement at all, but this is a good CD. This is much more than Limp Bizkit garbage, these guys actually have lyrics that are...somewhat meaningful. The idea of having two vocalists sets this band away from the crowd, both vocalists are good, and they both have different strengths and weaknesses, which makes this album rare in the fact it has good rap AND good screaming in it. One thing about rap rock that is dissapionting is some vocalists can be great singers, but their rapping voice is horrible, which can greatly degrade an otherwise decent album. All of the songs on this CD are at least decent, except I really dislike track 10. Besides that, this is a great CD and it can be enjoyed by alot of people."
34436,2,a modern fairy tale come true,"They are from two different worlds, but some how find a need for each other. I thought Jessica, the heroine in the book was so awesome, as she helps turns this man's world around.Kamlin, the prince in the story, he really is a prince charming of sorts. I loved it. The author did a great job of bringing out the best in both characters, and I couldn't help but fall in love with them."
34467,2,Great resource for students,My only complaint is that the longitude degree reference point are not on the Prime Meridian. Instead the markers are on the opposite side of the globe. The package arrived just on time as promised.
34497,2,just great music,"This is a fantastic soundtrack -- there's not a miss on it. It's paced to keep you rolling along with the overall feel of the CD and independent of it being a soundtrack it has a great history of music on it. I'll Fly Away is done wonderfullly, and every song fits well within the collection. This isn't country music. It's evocative blues /roots/ gospel.From the liner notes: The reason for our using so much of the era's music in the movie was simple,"" explains Ethan Coen. ""We have always liked it. The mountain music, the delta blues, gospel, the chain-gang chants, would later evolve into bluegrass, commercial country music and rock n' roll. But it is compelling music in its own right, harking back to a time when music was a part of everyday life and not something performed by celebrities. That folk aspect of the music both accounts for its vitality and makes it fold naturally into our story without feeling forced or theatrical."""
34509,2,Good...also predictable,"Good rehash of Madonna murders. A serial killer is murdering new mothers and their infant sons, and it's up to detectives to catch them.The writer brings in a figure from the past; this person enriches the storyline tenfold.The characters are a bit canned, and the plot is predictable. It becomes apparent early on that the good guys will win, and a love story is busy hatching behind the scenes (one which you can see coming a mile away).The end left me with questions. The killer obviously mistook one of the main characters for something/someone he was not, and I seriously expected there to be a part two. I felt like many things, including a twice-adopted child, led up to the idea that he secretly belonged to the main character, but the ideas behind that were never developed.In all, a good read."
34835,2,On the bluesy side,"Great Chuck Berry & co. performances of his songs and covers. It's on the bluesy side, for the most part, but that's okay with me because they are all played so well. Throw this one on the player and relax."
34903,2,Greatest Shredder I've Owned So Far!,"I've owned a few shredders over the years and with some, if you've got time on your hands - and patience - you could totally reconstruct the supposedly shredded documents. With this shredder, there's no way that would ever happen - I don't care what kind of time you have on your hands! When I first started using it, I got a stack of seven papers I wanted to shred, and looked in the basket after it was done. I kid you not - it looked like the paper equivalent of saw dust, lol.There's a safety feature where if you touch the surface near the shred area, its supposed to terminate the shredding process - that works great!The only part I have yet to try is the CD/Credit Card shredding slot, which if it works as well as the other parts/features of the shredder, I will be very happy with my purchase! :)"
34972,2,Simply Amazing,"You can't say anything other than that. Devo may still have recorded the single best version of Satisfaction, but Chan Marshall's version on this beautiful record is a close second. Of course, Mssrs. Jagger and Richards pull up in third place. But who's counting. Cat Power is like a fractured fairy tale of pop music. The American answer to Belle & Sebastion?"
35031,2,Not What I Expected,"The movie was good. Meryl Streep is good. I couldn't help however to reflect on the movie ""Working Girl"" in which Signourey Weaver out does Meryl Streep in ""The Devil Wears Prada,"" and Melanie Griffin is great. Want to talk about a nasty rotten boss - get ""Working Girl"" and make your own comparison."
35048,2,The King in Yellow is a classic of horror,"The King in Yellow is a group of thinly connected short stories all dealing with the effect of a two act play titled ""The King in Yellow"". The play will show up in the lives and libraries of the victums as if it has a dark soul and will of its own.All that find this work are blasted in a horrific cosmic game of tag that is some of the darkest fiction in weird literature.Published in 1895 by a young art student who wrote most of it while living in Paris, the King in Yellow and the early work of Robert W. Chambers were an influence on the work H. P. Lovecraft. Some feel that The King in Yellow is the source of the Necronomicon.For more information on the work of Robert W. Chambers see: www.ioc.net/~larryloc/yking001.htmlLarry Loc"
35055,2,Sean Bean before Lord of the Rings & before Game of Thrones,"Sean Bean is one of my favorite actors....and it's not because he was Boramir in Lord of the Rings, it's because he was Richard Sharp in this series. The story is great, it is one of my favorites in the series (Note: I have not read any of the books, just watched the entire series...multiple times). They are awesome. The DVD quaility is 1st rate"
35106,2,EXTRAORDINARY!,"This has got to be one of the greatest movies i've ever seen...I know that keanu isn't eh greatest of actors, but he was opposite al pacino, so he appeared to have some talent, it was al pacino who really made the movie. Anyone who said this movie frightened them is really a wimp. It is a satanic thriller which is one of the resons why i liked it. After I saw this movie I saw Seven and then read Dante's The Divine Comedy. It really brings out the dark side in all of us. In the last scene i don't know why he killed himself though, it works great with the movie but personally i would have done her right there, beacause she is brutally hot. Another amazing feat was how they emptied out fifth avenue,(i know it was done in a soundstage but it still looks cool) because there is never a time when you can empty out a street like that ever. --Kenny 16 years old kegewex@aol.com"
35129,2,Breath taking illustrations,"This is the most beautifully illustrated book that I have ever seen. The story is basic and an easy read, but the illustrations are what make the book. Cherie Bladholm has outdone herself in this book."
35150,2,Great machine for the price,"I was looking for an inexpensive machine to make latte and this fits the bill. Simple process, and it works like a charm.It gets 4 of 5 stars because I have since discovered that I need a timer to turn the thing off - as I have left in on a couple of times. With a timer it gets a 5. Small issue is having to unscrew the frothing head after each use to clean it. It's easy to do but time consuming if you are in a rush"
35207,2,Great...but where's the opening song?,"I love this soundtrack. It's very good, I love how they mixed Christian artists in it as well, giving them credit. All the songs are wonderfully balanced in tunes and vocals and lyrics. The only thing that I missed was the music that was playing at the beginning of the movie. What is that? Oh well. Please, check this out."
35221,2,"Corgan's best since ""Adore""","SP has always been about Billy Corgan. I simply think this is his best work since ""Adore"" which was probably overlooked by all but the most ardent SP fans-- it was too different from other work and had no ""1979"" or ""Today"". ""Adore"" has some great songs and beautiful guitar work. It seems that after ""Adore"" Billy went off into sonics, as witness Zwan (just a lot of noise to me) and his solo work. On ""Zeitgeist"" I declare that Billy the genius guitar hero is back. Here the sonics work! Do yourself a favor and get a copy of Adore, though, for the beauty Billy's capable of producing."
35319,2,Great Movie,Tom Cruse and cast do a wonderful job in this movie. When family movie night comes around this is one that will always get pulled.
35356,2,Works good on my iMac G5,"I haven't used all the features yet, but it seems to open almost any Windows<TM> doc file. The only problem I have is that it won't install on my TiBook and it won't register with Microsoft.I'm using Word 2001 on my TiBook."
35386,2,Why On This Night? Review,"This is an outstanding haggadah. I will use many of the ideas at my seder this year. Adults and children can learn a great deal about Passover by reading the detailed, yet very clear and simple explanations about the traditions, seder items, etc. The author also includes many interesting perspectives on the different parts of the seder."
35439,2,One of the best books on exercise I've read!,"I purchased this book on Amazon for less than six dollars. With the bargain price and Everett's sub-par books I'd previously read I wasn't expecting much. Surprised I was indeed! This is one of the best reads on exercise ever! From start to finish I was captivated by Everett's thorough understanding of the body and more so his ability to communicate it. From the bio-motor ability pyramid to the global muscular system, Everett breaks it down. I would've enjoyed some enlightening concepts on program design that were compatible with the exercise templates but that goes beyond the scope of this book. This is the new Supertraining! Buy this one today."
35489,2,ThaMuseMeant on Frogvilleplanet.com,"Wow! what a great album by GREAT songwriters, it's difficult to find such pristine beauty these days folks! WORDS AS important as the MUSIC.

35521,2,a simple feel good album that rocks from start to finish,"this is a wonderful CD. In a day where heavy metal rap and punk bands are abundant, it is great to find a simple CD like Brushfire Fairytales. It is a great CD, with the standout songs being Flake and Bubble Toes. Johnson strumming his acoustic guitar is infectious, and you will play these two tracks over and over again. Another wonderful song is losing hope. After hearing him featured on G. Love's album playing Rodeo Clowns, I knew that Brushfire Fairytales would be a great album!"
35566,2,Don't be shy: go ahead and dance!,"If there is one thing that Matapat shows in their music, and their live performances, it's that you shouldn't be afraid to express yourself in music and dance! This CD will get you off your feet and dancing down the streets. With an excellent combination of vocals, accordion, guitar, and more, Matapat opens the door of intercultural experience. The music is heavily celtic, and amazing to listen to. I would highly recommend this, not only to people merely looking for good music, but also for students who are interested in learning more about Québec's culture and music. The songs teach a lot about the romantic culture inherited from the French, as well as some traditional Québec stories. Definitely a super selection!"
35610,2,are we reviewing the same toy?,"Other reviewers mentioned weak snaps to close and a cheaply made plastic case. The item I got is more of a backpack than a case, appears to be well made, has a zipper closure, and is roomy. It is like we received entirely different items, but mine is what is pictured. I am happy with it. It will make a nice gift for the little girl I bought it for."
35658,2,Soundtrack,Where the heck is the soundtrack for this movie? Or at least who sings the song and the end?
35669,2,Favorite Litter,"I have a lot of pets and have tried many different litters, I always go back to Arm & Hammer. I think a lot of people think a good litter should mean that you don't have to clean the litter box as often, this is never going to happen. With regular scooping, this litter can remain odor free for up to 1 month. After that, I completely empty and bleach the boxes and start fresh. It clumps well and I like that it comes in a recyclable container, cardboard. I usually buy the multi-cat, but I really have not noticed a difference among the types."
35701,2,Catch22 - A Novel Worth Anyone's Reading,"As a high schooler, I would recommend ""Catch-22"" to anyone who isn't intimitated by larger books. This book is a novel about war and its prospects, morals, and the effects it has on the people within it. The narrator focuses on the events occuring in the camp of Pianosa, located on an island off the coast of Italy. The main character, Yossarian, gains morals and fights the system during World War II. It is very good a keeps the reader's attention. It's a nice variation from most dull high school reading, and I would rank this book right up there with ""Clockwork Orange"". If you are a high schooler looking for a challenging book, I would most certainly recommend ""Catch-22"". (Didn't that sound like it came straight out of Reading Rainbow?)"
35707,2,Catch-22 is a masterpiece of social satire,"Heller's timeless classic, Catch-22, is amazing. Hellercrafts an upside-down, senselessly sensible world whereeveryone but the main character, Yossarian, is sane. Or isYossarian the only sane one? Decide for yourself when youread the book. The novel is endlessly funny, pointedlyrevealing and gleefully rambunctious, filled with inherentcontradiction that somehow makes perfect sense. It's beenone of my personal favorites for years and will remain sofor many to come. Highly recommended."
35746,2,Concise,"As many people, when I first got the book I marveled at the size and thought upon myself that a book this large is going to take a long time to read. Realistically I've breezed through it rather rapidly and feel very confident facing the DBA certification. Unlike most I did also read the other Certification Exam's part as my primary job role is a developer I plan to attain both Certifications. Both sections were concise and precise, I learned quite a bit that I had thought I already knew enough about. I would highly recommend this book to anybody with at least some solid foundations in SQL and MySQL."
35748,2,Best Brand Food Sealer,"I've had two Food Saver brand vacuum food sealers in three years. When my second one went out less than a year after I got it, I decided I needed to find a better brand. I purchased a Black and Decker. Couldn't even get it to seal the bags. So it went back. Finally, I found this Rival. I love it! It seals even better than my Food Saver! I really like how it has the automatic seal button. The food saver only offers this feature on its more expensive models. The cheap price is icing on the cake. I would definitely recommend this! Actually, I'm buying this for two family members for Christmas gifts!"
35932,2,make your kitchen smell like you've hired an expensive chef,"Smells like you're cooking w/ a barrel of fresh basil. Aromatic, fresh and clean smelling basil - an interesting choice for incense."
35991,2,this cd is alright,"it's always like this: when someone gets reallysuccessful, some people start hatin' for thereason that the person has made it. why the hellshould u criticize 50 for this album? it's got alot of good rap tunes (""Many Men"", ""Back Down"",""Bloodhound"", ""Poor Lil Rich"", ""Wanksta"" are myfavs), and yeah he doesn't rap like others he'sgot a little speech problem but why should u disshim for that? he's spitting real street sh**. he'srappin' the way thugs talk. respect this man 4 doin'it & stop hatin'!"
36090,2,Great Read,Ive always been a Lance Armstrong fan and this is a great book telling of his story before his fame and through his second Tour win. Its a good read and a good story.
36114,2,great album but won't work on an ipod,this is a great album but this damn content protected cd will not work on your ipod if you have an ipod buy the digital download its cheaper and least you can hear on the go
36133,2,IN WORDS BOTH FAIR AND FOUL,"Hard to add much to the reviews here. The series deserves more credit than it gets for every aspect of its process and result. So to paraphrase Al, let me again emphasize the pure delight experienced in witnessing such stunningly adept use of the English language -- showstruck fool as I am. If words and naming once held terrifying power, David Milch has gone a long way to restoring their elemental force. At turns ethereal and Shakespearean, at turns brutal and colloquial, ""Deadwood"" speaks in that singular tongue born in and borne by the mouth. Harder then to understand how those who deride the series for its language do not comprehend the fact that, in complete ignorance, they attack its greatest strength. My advice to those few that just don't get it is simple: If you don't have the time to watch, listen."
36137,2,More Wonderful Music by Janetta Petkus,"I loved Petkus' first single CD, ""Moving in Time"", so I wondered if I would be disappointed in this second effort. Happily, I must say that this set equals ""Moving in Time"" in its beauty, quality, and depth. I especially enjoyed Track 1 of the Pitta CD, and the Kapha CD is perfect for unwinding. For those that spend long periods at the computer, the Vata CD is just the thing for keeping you energized and creative!"
36205,2,"Robin Trower's first...uhh.. ""single"" is here!","Trower gives us a hint in the opener ""Whiskey Train"" of what he was later to offer us as a soloist. I think leader Gary Brooker's vocals in this number influenced Trower as to what sort of voice he wanted singing his material--that husky blues voice also made famous by David Clayton Thomas and the late Terry Kath. As a result, the next voice we were to hear a Trower number in was that of James Dewar. Also notable here is ""Whaling Stories"", a lengthy (for its day) prequel to the classic ""Salty Dog""--plus, the sardonic, driving Elton John-ish ""Still There'll Be More"". I think ""Whiskey Train"" is one reason this album is rather undrrated and--at the moment--unavailable in a US issue. It just doesn't sound like a Procol Harum song. What it sounds like is a prelude to the the brilliant Hendrix-esque/ Claptonesque blues-metal career Trower was to have."
36242,2,Has to be read to be disbelieved.,"You know that ""truth is stranger than fiction"" because fiction is limited by our imagination. Here, author Epstein, provides a captivating biography of Armand Hammer - a con's con. Hammer pulled ""all the stops"" in a brazen existence of deception that is way beyond what can be imagined by all but the most cunning connivers. Crossing even blood and family members, Epstein's true chronicle of Hammer far surpasses anything of the mass media fictional yarns or true, related stories of the same ilk. Exceptionally well-written and very difficult to put down: most readers will find Hammer's m.o. incredulous and not being able to wait to see what happens next. In short, a great biography and required reading for sensitizing to business hypocrisy."
36273,2,Hardy Boys #5,"I read this particular number of the Hardy Boys series only after reaching middle age. I read many as a young boy, but most of the earliest #3 through #8, I have only read since finding the Applewood reproductions.All these books are good, allowing they're for boys. The ice skating scenes were realistic and got me involved. The little house falling over the hillside I found hard to understand, as the boys cooked something on the stove after that. I assume it's a type of structure or something 1920's that I might not understand. Riding the train into Chicago was true to life for a small town boy, also the snow storms in Montana, are written by someone who had experienced them, or better had a strong imaginative understanding of situations. A good writer.I wish these stories would be made into movies, not for special effect, for humor, or updated, but just as is, with actors who take the characters and situations seriously."
36279,2,Great product,"Really love this product. I use if after every bath on my arms and legs. It goes on wet, but dries in minutes and makes my skin feel nice and smooth. I really can recommend this product."
36311,2,Saves money and does a good job,"I've been using the reusable k-cup every day since Christmas. Unlike some reviewers here I use it with the Mr Coffee Keurig Brewer since I do not own the Keurig coffee brewer. The reusable filter is easy to use. I have not experienced splashing like others have mentioned. I did notice a stronger cup with using fine grain coffee. I had trouble finding fine grain coffee or espresso for a decent price, but finally found Cafe Bustelo. It's a good quality, fine grain espresso for a cheap price! Check the reviews & you'll see it has between 4 1/2 to 5 star review average. I highly recommend it."
36467,2,A good book to try...,"This is a good book. The pictures are totally far-out, and the lyrics are nice for those of us who ocassionally need help with the words to a song. I'd recomend this book if you're looking for an interesting read."
36524,2,Loves it,My Private Jet is black with gold and multicolor holographic glitter. A classic shade! The holo is pretty subtle so it's very wearable and the wear time is great. You can wear for a good five days without any big chipping. This is a color for every collection!
36569,2,Great book!,Need to understand this new technology? Then you need this book. Ron Howard does a great job of starting with the basics and moving on to cover the more esoteric areas of P&M.
36589,2,Watch This With Everyone!,"I am so impressed with how elegantly this story has been told. A tragedy this overt carries enough drama, so I really appreciate the fact that Charlene and the director chose to take a more sophisticated approach, forgoing the predictable heart-string tugging for emotionally charged reality. Charlene is what I consider a hero of our time (and I never use that word lightly). She is unwaveringly telling the world that it is not acceptable to be cruel, and she is doing it with grace, strength and courage. She is a perfect example for us all."
36631,2,Beautifully written!,"The boook was fantastic. It wasn't very good at the beginning but it eventually started making sense. Leslie and Jess were real close by the middle of the book. When Leslie died, it tore Jess up. That part was really sad. I recommend this book for ages 10 and up."
36642,2,"A major talent, a great album","The real test of a blues performer doesn't come with the shuffles and fast numbers...anyone with minimal talent can huff and puff and stomp their way through those songs with varying degrees of success.The real deal...the singer who has the goods...can tackle the slow, intense, extended numbers like ""Married To The Blues"" and hold the listener's attention while maintaining the necessary tension and drama over the span of the song. Shemekia does this brilliantly...all of her performances shine...and she has more going for her in the embryonic stages of her career than most singers do when they're looking back on a lifetime."
36682,2,Pretty good for the price...,"Just received my JamCam a couple of days ago. My first attempt with a digital camera. I'm not sure why some of the reviewers here had so much trouble loading and using the camera with their computer systems, but I had no trouble at all. Software loaded onto the computer fine, and so far I haven't had any trouble downloading pictures from the camera to my computer (Windows ME) Haven't tried any fancy adjusting of pictures yet with the included Adobe software but for the basics of taking pictures and viewing them on the computer, it's been working fine. As has been mentioned, resolution is minimally acceptable but what do you want for ....? I'm perfectly satisfied and am looking forward to experimenting with it."
36751,2,Tale of two cities,"Wonderfully descriptive. Takes a little time to become used to the use of words, as it was written in a differnt time. A window on a time past."
36812,2,A nice little book.,I ordered this for my daughter for her stocking. I know she will love it! She is really into the lift-the-flap books.
36838,2,Great Pink Floyd album,"Animals is not as famous as ""Dark side of the moon"" or ""Wish you were here"" but this is a must have album.""Dogs"" is an amazing track, with great guitars solo from David.""Pigs"" (Three different ones) is a great track and a memorable rythm.""Sheep"" is stunning with his aggressive rythm guitar and great keyboard.""Pigs on the wing"" one and two, should have been mixed in one track.I know there is a version of it, mixed togheter with a guitar solo in between. Far superior than the two small cuts on the album."
36975,2,From destruction to autodestruction,"Joachim Fest's book is a pregnant reconstruction of Hitler's last days and the end of the Third Reich based on the latest testimonies of the people who were with him in the Berlin bunker.Fest sketches summarily the historical background (the Versailles Treaty, the Weimar Republic), but gives a sharp analysis of Hitler's character: his racism and cynical enforcement of the law of the strongest. The vanquished had to be annihilated or enslaved: 'Apes trample to death all those who don't belong to their community'.Until the end Hitler believed in an alliance change (that Great Britain and the US would turn with him against the bolsheviks).When he saw that the war was lost, he ordered the annihilation of the whole of Germany and its population.Even on the ruins of the Third Reich his lieutenants continued to fight for his succession.This is a short but impressive tale about the madness of power.Not to be missed."
37004,2,Buddha,I was working on a report for Buddhism so I got this book its a very informative book if you want to learn about buddhist festivals I must say this is the perfect book from even if you want to learn about Bhikkus or Mayanha monks
37010,2,Lots of fun!,"I enjoyed this movie a lot. I laughed a lot! You will too, if you are looking for something that is delicious and dumb at the same time! But it works. Marley Shelton (Valentine) and James Marsden (X-Men) are great in this movie. Don't miss it."
37018,2,"It's Working, I Guess.",How do you know if you got a bad air filter? I do know I've put about 8000 miles on this filter & my engine still runs fine. I believe it as good as more expensive filters made by companies that spend $$$ on advertising.
37143,2,Poor Ringo.....poor lad..never did no harm to noone,If you have the slightest appreciation of comedy and/or great music buy this! I'd love to chat but......If I spoke prose you'd all find out I don't know what I talk about! Hey I am only 15 and I can appreciate this film! THAT says something!
37174,2,10,"The Hardy Boys Mystery series - the original classics (not rewritten) are excellent for the young reader. Here we see excitement, mystery, challenge and intrigue in the foreground and true character and values in the background. There is enough to keep the young readers attention and expand their minds in realistic situations NOT FANTASY. You always feel part of the mystery itself without feeling personaly threatened or scared.In the background the young reader gets to know the Hardy family well. A family where two young boys obey and look up to their father, a father who loves and respects his wife and children, a mother who loves, cares and provides for her husband and children and a family that is revered in the community because of their character. WHO CAN ARGUE? The HArdy Boys Mystery series, excellent reading to build strong minds with character and conviction."
37179,2,PFM at their best live!,Have this on vinyl and still pull it out on occasion. Nice to see this at a great price so I upgraded to CD.
37335,2,"great DVD , ok concert","I was so thrilled when I saw evanescence has a concert CD + DVD. I went out and bought it and was a bit disappointed....the DVD is excellent! the ""behind the scenes"" is funny and wonderful! the only trouble is the the recording of this concert is lacking. the level of this recording is not what you expect to get from a top band....but in the end it ROCKS. amy lee ROCK! and it's a beautiful cover to ""thoughtless"". buy it even just for the DVD."
37361,2,Favorite of Three Generations,"My mom and I absolutely loved this book when I was a kid, and I'm now introducing it to my son. What a treat to revisit this story and to share it among three generations!"
37378,2,Daring & Provocative,"I was a bit skeptical but it turns out this is a very interesting read. Jenna Jameson offers us an insightful look at her life and personal account of her rise to status as queen of porn. It was interesting to learn of her personal struggles and life events that led to her involvement in the adult entertainment industry. There are some steamy scenes (well she is a porn star), and some parts that aren't so fun to read, but I personally appreciate her bold honesty because the juicy details are what make reading interesting."
37385,2,Will the movies have the cut scenes??,"I was a little disappointed when I bought the DVD box set, and found that the horse head section was not rearranged with the cut scenes! They have them on the extra disc, but not in the movie. I saw it on cable once, and loved it! It made more sense with the killing of the race horse, not just to strong arm the studio head, but because of the abuse of the child star! I really hope they add this option to the Blurays, like they did with all the versions of the Blade Runner movie!"
37393,2,The Greatest,If you have never seen this series. Then you must buy it now. It is a great DVD collection to have.
37404,2,Useful tool; but all parts of pack don't fit in supplied bag,"Useful tool. I bought the 3rd hand contractor pack thinking that the bag would be useful to put away everything in the pack, in one place. Turns out that the four units do not fit in the bag - the bag is too small. No way for the four supplied UniversalFOOT (UniversalFEET?!)to fit in there. Would have been nice if they had made the bag bigger so you could actually get all the stuff in, and conveniently.The 3rd Hand is a 5, but this rating is overall for the contractor pack, since the bag is of no use to me."
37464,2,nice film,"good photography and good quility movie. I enjoyed it before, decide to have it in my album archive. I reccomended for general public"
37546,2,F*** Great!,"Besides everything Macca did with the Beatles, this is his masterpiece. Undoubtedly. The funny thing is that, as a Beatles fan, I only listened to Band on the Run a little before Paul came to Brazil a couple of months ago. Nowadays, I can't listen to ""1985"", ""Mrs. Vandebilt"" and ""Bluebird"" (less known to Beatles fans) without crying. P.S.: I went to the concert..."
37608,2,A great learning tool,We bought this for our 5 year old son because he was having trouble writing his letters. The smartboard has really made writing his letters fun. It lets the kids know when they have written the letter or number correctly. His writing skills have really improved by using this toy. I would recommend this toy to any parent that wants their son/daughter to have a tool for learning their letters and numbers. Good Product!
37652,2,Very cool.,"My son found this and ordered it. It is pretty cool, not cheap and crappy! NOT made in China!I would definitely buy from this location again!"
37659,2,We love this,My baby loves this mat. She will look at the toys and musical lights for a long time...which lets me do things!!!
37761,2,Absolutely Amazing,"Finished this book in less than a day....I am a sucker for paranormal romance, but this book blew me away. I purchased it because of the high ratings, but it was a lot more than I expected. The heroine is witty and relatable and the hero is right out of my dreams. If you want a book that will grab you from the start and keep you begging for more well after it's done, then this is the one for you. I can't wait to start the next book in the series!"
37767,2,"Not the best, but awsome","Dimmu Borgir is no longer Black Metal. Any CD before when Shagrath became lead singer of DB is Black Metal. They are now more like Symphonic Metal. Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia is an awsome CD though! I would have to say, in opinion, that Puritania and Kings of the Carnival Creation are awsome songs. If you don't even like Metal you could enjoy this CD. Although it is heavy, it's pretty tame for Metal. If you want more of a Black Metal Dimmu Borgir CD then I would suggest getting For All Tid and Stormblast. PEM is a good CD to play along to if you play and instrument also because the songs are fairly easy to play."
37784,2,"Prescription for Nutritional Healing, 4th Edition",We had earlier editions which we found quite valuable. This edition (4th) is no exception.
37813,2,Evolution or revolution,"This book is great to read. Whether you believe what's been written or not, not-so-religious people can't deny evolution. It's as simple as 1+1=2 and that's how this book has been written.You believe what I just said? Grab a copy of the book now!Don't believe me? Good, as I don't buy into everything that has been said as well. But I do think it's important that the more views you have, the better your fundamentent for judgement is. This book certainly has some very strong points and may sound familiar to you.So, just with psychology and Dr. Phil, don't believe everything that's being said, but make up your own mind. Maybe this book will be 'a changing day in your life...'."
37821,2,Incredible,"An absolute pageturner. A story of leadership, courage, determination and incrdible seamanship makes this a must read.When one thinks that this entire aventure took place 85 years ago, it becomes even more apparent just what a feat it was.One of the best reads I've come across in a long time."
37875,2,An excellent guide to the past !,"A book of love, life, death and hate. Cleopatra is all of these. From her affair with caeser to the asp that killed her. This is a great book for avid readers."
37987,2,bronco portfolio,This is an excelent book for early bronco fans. It give a good number of origional articles and reviews of the early Pony. If you are looking for some history on the Bronco this is a good resorce. If you are looking for restoration help you will not get much from this book.
38015,2,Excellent.,"The Caped Crusader is portrayed brilliantly in this movie. The storyline is deep and therefore the film may require more than one viewing to be ""fully taken in"" and understood. Joker's portrayal by Heath Ledger was absolutely amazing to say the least. Honor has once again been brought to the legend of the Dark Knight by Christopher Nolan and his crew. Well done!"
38037,2,waterpic water flosser,"This machine is fantastic. It replaces an old one that didn't stop working, the wand cracked and parts were not available since it was at least 30 years old. The only problem with the new one is the reservoir doesn't fit when it is turned over with the wand in place. You have to find a place for it on the counter and it will take up a lot of room if you travel. My teeth already look great and gums also and I am 71 years old.Controling the pressure-output- is great. On and off control could have beeen placed in a different place. Buy it! Buy it!"
38062,2,"""Cause shotgun bullets are bad for ya health""............","Ice Cube's music career was at a fever pitch in 1992; with the dissolution of N.W.A, there would truly be noone in his way as he claimed the top sopt in rap as evidenced in The Preadtor debuting at #1 on the charts. It's not as political as Amerikka's Most Wanted or incendiary as Death Certificate, but still great to listen. Some of the highlights are some of hip hop's greatest songs; there's ""Wicked""(beautifully covered by Korn on their "" Life is Peachy"" album), ""Check Yo'Self"" (featuring Das Efx, which I quoted in this review's title"") and the remarkable ""It Was A Good Day"", which still brings a smile to my face and a tear to my eye now with this album's re-release which includes remixes and rare B-sides, you have even more incentive to buy this!"
38165,2,"Motivational, but recreatable","This is a collection of items intended for use with the No Plot No Problem ""novel in a month"" system which started the whole NaNoWriMo thing. It's a great kit and full of motivational supplies to help keep you going but be aware there is next to no ""how to write better"" tips. The only real thing it suggests will help is writing more frequently, which I agree with. The kit is helping me complete my writing goals, but now that I have the kit, I could probably make everything in it myself. I would recommend the product but some may be very disappointed with how basic and ""cute"" it is."
38210,2,4 cups?,"I like this coffee maker and would probably buy another one.Every morning I make 4 cups. I drink 1 cup while I'm reading the paper. My wife comes down and she has a cup. And then there's about 1/2 cup left.So today I measured it using a measuring cup. The ""4"" cup coffee maker makes a little less than 3 cups."
38270,2,Great Runic Chant CD! Must have for Odinists!,This is a great way to learn Odinist runic chants. Good for any one studying Norse Shamanism. It is a lot easier than reading chants out of a book. An Asatru must! Wyatt Kaldenberg
38283,2,A great christian singer,This is Michael's best album of all. All the songs are perfect. This one is recommended for any and every christian music lover.
38290,2,Keeping My Fingers Crossed,"Well, my husband and I are half way through assembly of this product. I disagree completely with the 30 min assembly as we have inveseted 1.5 hours already. Both of us are strong and capable of following directions. (I assembled all of our baby gear alone, incl. the crib at 7 mths pregnant with no problem.) The instructions make assembly seem as easy as snapping together, but the pieces are a lot harder to fit than we thought. I do feel that my 1 yr old will be safe playing because of this difficulty. Sometimes too easy equals shoddy. However, we will try the Pam or WD-40 and maybe add my dad to help out. (...)"
38325,2,I heard ten-minutes of this CD and went out and bought it.,I heard a couple of a tracks from this CD and I went out and bought it. The group is the most original Ska/Punk group I have encountered in awhile. I hope to find previous CD's from the band.
38383,2,Good stuff here...,I only give this 4 stars because it definitely leaves you wanting more. Especially love Crowd Control and Two Versions. Good stuff from beginning to end in my opinion...
38422,2,I wasn't sure what to expect but it's become a favorite,"CD for me to play in the car, while working around the house or surfing the web. Before I bought the CD I wasn't familiar with any of the songs except for the show's theme; I ended up liking every song on the CD, and it's introduced me to some groups I hadn't heard of before. Favorites from this one include ""Strong,"" ""I Quit,"" and ""Already Met You."" This soundtrack has the same wit and humor that makes the show such a wonderful experience."
38486,2,Great,"Our company has just embraced the UML process. We develop primarily in VB and this is the first book yet that seems to address VB and UML together in real-world situations. Wrox has a winner here, again. The best part of this book is that you get more than just the UML structure. The sample application uses RDS, MTS, ADO and other important distributed computing technologies. And best yet, you receive a structured approach (through UML) to understanding the problem at hand. Buy this book if you're serious about developing OO apps with VB."
38504,2,Wonderful surprise!,My son was absolutely delighted to receive these wooden practice swords for his birthday! He has just started up Karate and found these quite useful for some of the practice trainings he has to do for his dojo. Thank you so much for delivering them under the expected time as this was an added bonus!!!
38507,2,Excellent Resource,"I have heard from many sources that the NASB is the best translation of the original Greek, but have never studied Greek myself. This fascinating word-for-word translation is paired side-by-side with the NASB and the NIV for a very interesting study that can give new meaning to many familiar New Testament passages. Great for use in Bible studies, personal study, and classroom use, as well as following along with sermons and other messages.This would also be an excellent resource for anyone learning Greek, as each word has an individual English translation beneath it.I highly recommend this text."
38549,2,Support for personal & spiritual growth,"This book provides both perspectives and methods for ""growing whole"" in a world full of crises and challenge. I appreciate the author's perspectives on how ""work on oneself"" helps contribute to the world; so often personal work and social action are seen as separate and even conflicting. The exercises found throughout are easy to do on one's own, or with others in a group.I also recommend the accompanying audiotape/journal called ""Growing Whole: Exploring the Wilderness Within."""
38640,2,One of my favorites,"Its a good video becuase its has easy parts, and more challanging parts! So it great for the beginers and the more advanced! I DONT agree with the review that said it was for only for beginers!! I'm not a beginer! And there were some parts that were challanging for me!! Shes not cheesy and got a great bod! I plan to get all of her DVD'S"
38659,2,"Sad, sad, sad... mesmerizing","When I first saw this movie I thought it was one of the saddest and most beautiful films I'd ever seen, which I still think today. The fugitive, the melancholic painter, the abused girl, the ship, and the dog, oh yes, the dog will break your heart and duly so. This was the kind of movie Marcel Carné used to make, sad and beautiful, effortless, peerless, unforgettable. He later made Children of Paradise, which is far more ambitious than Port of Shadows in narrative and production terms and although Children of Paradise is usually considered his greatest film, I'd be hard pressed to tell which of the two is more ravishing. Children is a luxurious opera; Port is a mesmerizing chamber piece."
38672,2,Solved My Problem,I had an idling problem and this solved it. My car is 13 years old so I think the old one just wore out.
38760,2,Honestly thankful.,"This movie touched many nerves in me. To those of you who have written reviews about the bad script, please remember that Spielberg himself called it more of a tribute to the soldiers than a movie. How thankful should we all be to ALL soldiers who fought in WW2! Not just Americans or Brits or Canadians, or anyone else inparticular. SPR is NOT about Americans alone, but about courage and that there have been magnificient sacrifices made for our freedoms made. Thank you Mr. Spielberg for making this movie. THANK YOU if you have ever served this nation or any other nation that promotes free will, and is against tyranny and oppression. If you review this for it's movie qualities, you're missing the point."
38800,2,"Wonderfull sleepy music, buy it to keep for a life time",I find that I keep going back to this music every time I need to wind down. I can not get the melodies out of the back of my head. I hear them when I need to find peace. My only problem is that I have come to associate this album with dozing off. Not a good thing when each track is beautiful. I find I have a hard time getting through the 3rd track without my eyes closing and the warm sounds taking me away.
38802,2,Clint t'ain't 'kidd'ing around!,"clint.May hero does a great jo as them man called joe kidd.He erm coeboy of the old west .T'werth the olden days.I lurve how clint shoots up all them bad men but the lack of babies in them movies was disapointin.I think it woulda been better if Clint had saved a baby instead of them damsels in distress from them bars.YThe babys are cuter and t'werent need much money to be payes.Just a buck a day and if one leaves or gets sicks.You can get a new one, cause all them babies look the same.Clints looks aot like me in them movies and i think i lurk might fine fer a man."
38807,2,good book with a not good package,"The book is good, but the package is not good. When I open the package, it has much dust and make my clothes dirty. However, the book's quality is the same as the introduction and I am satisfied. Good seller. Good book."
38856,2,Amazing,I was looking for a gift box so that I could put a necklace I bought for my girlfriend in it and this was perfect. Really good quality and doesn't have any logos.
38901,2,A Masterpiece,"This Movie (American Beauty), deserved every award it received, and maybe even more. It tells the story of a ""typical"" suburban family, but shows the whole dark side of their life. Lester Burnham, played perfectly by Kevin Spacey, is a father and husband, and throughout the movie makes so many mistakes, which make us laugh, but in the end, it's all so emotional and you won't beleive what happens when it does. All I can say is... if you want to a true masterpiece, which only comes out every few years or so, American Beauty is a must-see on DVD, because the fatures are fantastic, also."
38989,2,super,i got this super fast love the fact i got it quick super service lovely gift idea as well if u have a little one
38995,2,Wanna trash the U.S.A.? Hollywould.,"Isn't it funny that a few people who insult this film and the people who enjoy it are shadowed by the majority who find the film funny? Oh but yeah, everyone else is stupid accept you. When Hollywood picks apart conservatives it is always considered nothing short of knee-jerk-slapping fun and the reviews are proudly presented in fanfaronade of grandeur. Sadly, when the tables turn and the few conservatives, who find themselves amongst the zombified, self-proclaimed tolerants of Tinsel Town, have a bit of fun at their rival's expense, liberals would sooner eat their own young before ingesting a tiny portion of crow in the spirit of ""taking it"" after many years and reels of ""dishing it."" How pathetic. I will cut this short for those of you afraid of missing a second of Joy Behar."
39013,2,adolescents live,great c.d. some might say that these teenagers were musical genius's but i think that this album really shows you what punk was really about in the early 80's. raw uncut and most of all very powerful. good buy for punks in the making.
39089,2,Hope they fluff up,"I haven't washed these yet, but they seem a little flat right out of the package. This is a superb deal if you get the bonus hand towel, spend $125 and get 25 off, and then get free shipping. However, I can not believe that amazon sent 16 boxes!!! I ordered 8 bath towels and got the hand towels. Every single towel was in its own box with some of those air bags to fill in the missing space where one or two more towels could have been easily placed! What a pain! amazon must be doing pretty well to offer free shipping and send the items in individual boxes!"
39108,2,Horny Holidays,"Mojo and Christmas. Need I say more? If you're a Mojo fan,this is a must-have for the holidays!"
39121,2,ecxellent drama series,"This is an incredible story of how these five siblings bind together dealing with life challenges as a team of undonditional love, but also what is in the best interest in each child. I sure hope they do not take as long to releases the next four episode as it has through the rest of these series, First taking almost two years and a year and a half for the other. It is a great series dealing with life issues together as a close sibling family. Plese don't keep making us wait so far in between season."
39145,2,Welcome to Hip-Hop 101: class is now in session!!!,"This album should be a REQUIRED PURCHASE to show the world how hip-hop should be done: easy on the profanity, heavy on the bass and almost deeper than Malcolm X (almost!!!) ""Excursions,"" ""Verses.."", and ""Vibes.."" spotlight Q-Tip's tight, nasal flow, while Phife flips it on ""Butter"" like no tomorrow. Tribe should get retroactive Grammys for this one. A rap classic for the ages!!!"
39158,2,"No mess, no waste",Great product. Very easy to use. No drips or waste. Just lightly drag the bolt over the stick and assemble as usual.
39190,2,My First Love,"This was the first Japanese pop music album I bought during my year in Japan last year...and it has been the soundtrack to some of my best moments there. If it wasn't for Hikaru, the Japanese music scene probably wouldn't look the way it does now, with artists moving to replicate her R&B sounds and success. You can dance to her music! And the music is great! It makes sense! You'll know what I mean if you've listened to JPOP before. My favorite tracks from this album are ""Automatic,"" a pop classic in Japan by now, ""Movin' On Without You"" and ""Time Will Tell."" The title track is a bit weak, probably because it's a ballad. Hikaru's voice is a bit thin, but I think with time and development, her music will grow and mature. This would be a great addition to your JPOP collection."
39226,2,A NEW BEGINING...,"This album is by far the best album I have ever heard to date... The moody sound acoustics, the complex orchestration, the deep and emotional lyrics creates a masterpiece beyond my most vivid imagination. Just listen to it! and try to get it's deeper meanings. The entire composition as a whole sounds power and depth through it's moody, dark and apocalyptic design that is a new begining for the group and the genre itself. It is not ""light"" or meant for partying drowned out by peoples gurgling sounds and the sounds of people cotching on the floor from having to much cheap wine -NO, you cannot compare it to the likes of ""Major icons"" like Madonna or Michael Jackson -their music is centred on fun, shallow -happy-go-lucky music providing for a general conscencus. This album dominates completely in it's complexity, intellectuality and power."
39229,2,Electronic spirituality.,"A very spiritual album from the band that brought us the agnostic cynicism of ""Blasphemous Rumours"". Tracks like ""Condemnation"" and ""Judas"" were sure to alienate DM's more goth-oriented fanbase, and yet this LP is perhaps the band's most authentic and honest of all their recorded output. Dave Gahan's singing was never so brittle and emotional, and the dark electronica sound is pervasive as never before. The first single, ""I Feel You"", may have turned off potential buyers at the time, but a renewed listen now will reveal a very rewarding album from start to finish. Certainly one of their best in a long line of great albums."
39267,2,An essential Skynyrd CD,"As we know,this was released soon after the fatal plane crash. Skynyrd fans were still smarting from the loss and this helped ease the pain.The songs are some of Ronnie's most personal,although less commercial,and the inclusion of the Rickey Medlocke tunes is such a sweet bonus. This is a must have for Skynyrd fan's looking to get into Ronnie, and Medlocke's,artistic honesty.This is a very personal album, and I love it."
39301,2,And then there were none,"I had to read and then there were none for my honors english class last month, and i didn't think i would like it, since i never like books people make me read, well i really got into it, and i couldn't put it down, once the people started dying, and you didn't know who the killer was, it was just kinda freaky. Then once i found out who the killer was i was like no way...he seemed sane in the book, i mean heck he even died, and then when i read the letter he wrote to the police it was just like...dude anyone could do that! so yeah, but i really did like it, and i might go checkout some more of her books because i liked that one soooo much!"
39311,2,Nelly's daytime beats shows his talents,"The album ""Sweat"" has great tracks! Especially with Missy Elliot, Christina Aguliera, Jazzy, Pharell and more. ""The Heart of a Champion"" is a great song that he used with the old NBA on NBC theme. ""Tilt Your Head Back"" was a great song with his mix of 70s groove in the background. ""Flap Your Wings"" is giving it up to all shapes and sizes to do the dance. But my favorite is ""Superman"" (which in my opinion would have been good for the ""Superman 2"" soundtrack). He still keeps that St.Louie feel with his body moving and down right songs."
39340,2,Very Very Entertaining!,John Grisham never ceases to amaze me at how well he writes his novels. This one once again is a winner with some of the best characters i have ever read. This also has a great plot with a superb ending that i was not expecting and especially the fact this actually does have some comedy added to it. Something you don't normally see in a Grisham novel. Never read a Grisham Novel? Read this one immedeately and you will see why John Grisham is one of the best writers today.
39357,2,addressing wrongs without retaliation,This is a very good book written by the son of a woman murdered while trying to escape to freedom with her children from a corrupt government. He wrote about it as an adult investigating what happened and including his memories. He is forgiving as his mother was desiring to do as she would have wished with no retaliating to those who had part in persecuting her.
39402,2,An Insightful Peruse of Beantown,"Boston is a city that is a tourist haven. With its rich historical atmosphere as well as the accouterments of a modern-day metropolis, it would be easy to lose focus and miss out on all the city has to offer. I was impressed with the way that the video avoided this pitfall by laying out the city in a logical fashion. While it may be impossible to see all that Boston has to offer in a one week vacation, the video gave me some definite ideas about the things that would make my trip the most meaningful for me and my family. This is the beauty of the video-that the material is presented as a smörgsbord, and the viewer can choose what to consume in greater detail when they visit. The due diligence the producers paid in researching the history of Boston was much appreciated as well."
39436,2,An easy nights read.,"Even if you have read the original screen play adaption that came out 30 years ago, this is still a worthy addition.The story is just as you remember it, but the background chapters of all the main characters add a much needed fleshing out of the nights events."
39508,2,Rozan's best yet,"STONE QUARRY is terrific. I've been a Rozan fan for years -- love the alternating-voice thing -- and I have to say this book shows simultaneously a lyricism and a toughness beyond even what Rozan has given us before. Characters are real, setting so believeable you can feel the chill in the air. Highly recommended."
39570,2,Wonderful Product,I absolutely love this product. I received it just in time for the bitter cold football games. Couldn't be happier.
39605,2,One of the Best on the Enemy,"Dr. Mayhue unmasks Satan and allows us to biblically see our Adversary. The book does not deal with demons or the demonic realm as much as he deals with the person of Satan. The book covers nearly every Scripture on Satan and exposes his lies, his tactics, and how to defeat him through Christ.One of the best things about this book is that Dr. Mayhue does not spend time chasing dreams and men's ideas about Satan. Too much confusion exists about the Enemy and most comes from strange (even unbiblical) ideas about Satan. Dr. Mayhue avoids this and simply gives us a biblical view of Lucifer."
39619,2,A wonderfully vivid extended family story,"The Queen of Persia refers to the matriarch of a rural midwest family fifty or so years ago. If you enjoy a book that is at least equally concerned with its moments as it is with where it is going, then this book will probably be good for you. It has been over two years since I read this book and I can still see and feel what Joan Chase wrote ... the overall atmosphere and setting as well as the individuals involved."
39785,2,earrings,I like the earrings alot I have worn them a few times. However this morning while putting the earrings on I dropped one on the sink and two stones popped out.
39811,2,A three-day panorama of life at a Florida airbase in WWII.,"The best book about the U.S. Army during the Second World War, Guard of Honor is a forgotten classic and would be turned into a 4-hour movie if anyone could be bothered. A tour-de-force of detail, simple and accurate. A Dickens of a novel"
39814,2,Shure PG24/PG58,Great warm tones nice sounding Mic. Great for live bands and Karaoke singers. The Battery life last about 8 hrs
39896,2,well balanced,the historical background is accurate and leads the reader to experience the real way of life two hundred years ago (and be thankful you are not living in that period). I was a little disappointed to realize Jo's passion for her great husband didn't show up for a long while. which could have given the book more intensity...Let's see how it goes on in the third book!
39927,2,Imagine being there!,What a great look back at what times were like in the life of a real cowboy. Well written. I really liked that he told stories that showed his mistakes and victories. I have shared these books with friends. All really enjoyed them as much as I did.
39931,2,Great Bond,"While not the best Bond movie, Dr.No ranks very high. This blu-ray experience is technically flawless. Vibrant colors and detail with an outstanding soundtrack make this film watchable over and over. As the first Bond film, it's true to the Fleming character. The plot is close to the source material. My only fault with the film is the climax. The Dr.No laboratory/control room and the Bond/Dr.No fight are rather cheesy by today's standards. Up til that point this is an excellent spy/action movie decorated by Ursula's rising from the sea in her two piece suit"
40034,2,""" All Star "" THIS song is the freakin coolest","This CD is so cool, I luv it like crazy and it sure does Kick @$$. So i reccomend you that you go out and get this cd, luv the group lots !!!"
40098,2,"The intense, heroic adventure continues!!","After reading the First book in few days, I knew I would be entranced by his sequel. I could never put the book down. There is never a low point in the book. If you plan on getting some sleep than don't read this becuase you are never going to stop reading it until you have it finished."
40116,2,The Innocent Man - WOW wake up call,"As a former baseball guy, I was mesmerized by this guy's tragic road. Grisham made me feel emotions I would not have felt. This was an extremely emotional book and I immediately sent a copy to my cousin who had spent years in the field of helping those who have been deemed criminally insane. Emotional and the story is so unbelieveable yet it is TRUE!"
40151,2,The Best Intro RDBMS Book,"This is the best intro RDBMS book out there. It explains everything you need to know to design a database. It isn't vendor documentation and isn't trying to be. There are some areas that would benefit from a second edition but nothing in it is patently ""wrong"" or ""out-dated."""
40180,2,A strong and haunting movie,This powerful story takes up a few destinies that are affected by the horrors of the war and the oppressions that exist in a few conservative societies. The approach however is not a pessimistic one as there is strength and love that are derived from the difficult lessons and a light that is seen at the end of the tunnel.A strong and haunting movie.
40245,2,the best of all,"Orinoco combocard gold is the only card that combines both the 5GHz and the 2.4GHz wireless network(11a of the 5GHz and the 11g of the 2.4GHz which is backword compatible with the 11b network).The gold version lets you to set unlimited profiles of the places you connect while on the way.It is very stable and lets you to turbo you 11a signal to 108Mbps which is faster than the Ethernet 100 wired standard.If you in the market for a wireless cardbus, buy the Orinoco 8480 version (the Gold version) for all your wireless needs."
40306,2,A Standing Ovation,"Bravo, Bravo, Bravo!! Oh, how I hated to come to the end of this series. A caution to would-be readers: Do NOT shortchange yourself and skip either of the first two books (Many Lives/Secret Sorrows, and Tales of Passion) - they all flow together seamlessly and offer an indescribable wealth of passion and intellect. Wonderfully written, deeply researched - this trilogy by Ms. Gulland is truly a treasure."
40356,2,A Wonderfully Made Film,"This movie is one of the best of its kind, as far as I'm concerned. Five stars all the way, perfectly made. I was born in 1935 & grew up in L.A., CA during WW2 so have a keen interest in that critical period and have read about it & am collecting film commentary on it. This movie is a sterling addition.to my collection. Semi-documentary in styrle, detailing the horrors of that time & place wihtout dwelling on them. Music being used sparingly. A true story, very well told. So much could be said about it - but I will only say that like the films about Anne Frank it has found a place in my heart."
40413,2,Loved it,Loved this book? Fast read. You will fall in live with the characters.? Nora writes with wit and makes it impossible to put her books down.
40429,2,Great purchase!,This knife holder is very durable and easily holds and entire block worth of knives. Was easy to hang and has helped reduce clutter on our kitchen counter. We love it and have already recommended it to many of our friends.
40534,2,The Best Book In The Whole World,"I bought Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets on June 3,1999 and finished it the next day. I went to school with it and read it while having classes and the teacher always tells me to close the book which I couldn't do because it was very addictive! What urged me to buy the sequel is because a classmate of mine brought the first book of Harry Potter to school and told the teacher to read it to us everyday and I started to like it. There was a Harry Potter mania in our class! I can't wait to buy the third book of Harry Potter if their is. I hope there are many more Harry Potter books to come!"
40559,2,This CD is beautiful!,"What I like about this CD is the innocency of each melody. Some of the other Cocteau Twins's releases are quite brooding (though still very well composed). Victorialand leaves me with a kind of ethereal, otherworldly attitude that helps a sullen heart not take life so seriously."
40708,2,Good book for identification of your bow-tie small-block,"This is a good book for identification of your bow-tie small-block, although there's some lack of info regarding the first 265 engines and the '57 fuel injected 283 engines. Handy for who needs the full history about the small-block left on the back of the garage. There's even some info about the 400ci engines."
40750,2,Great fun for the law hobbyist,"I bought this book on a whim. For a long time I had been interested in law and wanted to see what studying it was all about. I don't think I could have picked a better place to start. From the word go this book delivered interesting cases with in-depth analysis at the end of each one. The analysis was especially helpful in picking apart the important points of law that the case represented. Now when I watch Law and Order and The Practice, I can tell my girlfriend about what is going on (in the legal parts) and sound like a total know-it-all, which is totally awesome."
40851,2,Supported in IBM AIX on RS/6000 and pSeries,"This is AKA IBM FRU 80P2994, FC2738, or FC0632 and is supported under AIX for KB and mouse.Also, supported for USB mass storage as of AIX 5.3 TL9 or later, and AIX 6.1 TL2 or later.Besides that, this works in Linux, Windows, G4 PowerMac, and probably other operating systems.Tech Specs:* 32-bit, 33MHz PCI Local Bus Specification Revision 2.2* Single-slot, half-size PCI card* +5V or +3.3V signaling* FCC Class B* Two downstream USB ports* Full 12 MHz bandwidth on each port* Full compliance with Universal Serial Bus Specifications, Revision 1.1 and 2.0* Compatible with OpenHCI Open Host Controller Interface Specifications for USB, Release 1.10a* EHCI compatible* Integrated Dual-Speed USB Transceivers* Supports up to 127 devices for each port* Supports peripheral hot-swap and wake-up* Low Profile Bracket (may need to use the non-LP edition or get a full sized bracket)"
40855,2,Go Girl!,"I have had her cd for over at least 6 months.I love all of her songs.They all havve a grundgy type of music.Where Ever I go my LEFT OF THE MIDDLE cd goes too.I enjoy her work,and im eager for her next album. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK NATALIE!"
40892,2,The truth about professional dancing,"I used to do Ballet and Tap for almost ten years, while my expirence wasn't nearly as demanding or professional as portrayed in this film, it had the same ""rules."" Ballet truely is the hardest sport to learn, its demands on the body are inhumane, but the end result is beautiful. This movie gave outsiders a rare glimpse into the lives of professional dancers. It is so important to have the perfect body and do the steps perfectly that it can be too hard. A lot of the acting felt fake and forced, mainly the ones who were actually professional dancers. This film is great and gives people the real meaning of discpline."
40949,2,Excellent!,My 10 year old daughter is the one who wanted this...and she LOVES it. Funny how that works? Highly recommend this DVD.
40960,2,Great Lavalier Mic,"I use this mic with a wireless system and it has very good clarity and is very hot, it will pick up loud noises from a distance of about 40 ft., so I turn down my mic recording level to eliminate that problem. My only complaint is the mic clip that came with the unit will not hold the mic, it pops out of the clip without fail. I would think Sony would send a mic clip with the product that is engineered to work with the product it is packaged with. That is the reason for a four star rating. As far as quality goes it is a five star product. I use a wire adjustable clip and it works just fine."
40977,2,"Review on ""Where the Sidewalk Ends""","The book ""Where the Sidewalk Ends"" is a very good book full of good and entertaining poetry along with drawing s to go with most of the poems. I enoyed the book and would read it again and again."
41092,2,Good overall airsoft gun,"This is a good overall sniper rifle. Mine came with a scope that had easily adjustable zoom, and it was very easy to adjust the sights. Putting the gun together requires a little bit of patience, however, and it doesn't come with instructions (although there are some unclear ones on the side of the box). Being almost all-metal, it is dependable and hardy, but unless you're insanely strong, i would recommend being 13 or 14 years old, as if you are running around with it it will quickly fatigue you. Also, i would recommend using a side-arm, such as a spring or gas pistol in a holster,as sniper rifles are generally ineffective at close range, unless you are team killing, shooting turtles, or have mad skillz."
41096,2,"The Soldier's Lady, Shadows over Stonewycke, Miss Katies Rosewood",It has been a while since I've read these books. Michael Phillips has made history come alive through them. I like the fact that I haven't found inappropriate words used in them.
41131,2,OUTSTANDING,"Great, wonderful and moving.. I cried my eyes out... EVERYONE DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE..... EVERYONE!"
41162,2,Too Fast and easy,"I recieved this razor sharp system for Christmas, Installed it on my grinder to give it a try. Some friends had said it worked great for them But you know one's a fisherman and they keep thier knifes sharp with stones i guess.. Anyhow after the first knife I had the angle down flat and within an hour every knife in my house was razor sharp I mean shaving paper off an 1/8 of an inch at a time. I'm ordering a couple more to send to my brothers. It's great I mean razor sharp!!!! And easy like 2 minutes a knife."
41270,2,Looking for something efective,"Bought the product because last year my dog, a wonderful big Golden Retriever had a serious desease from ticks, and the products we had been using did not provide good enough coverage for ticks. Have applied it today because I just came back from the States and will see if it works.....our vet said it's very good, so we hope the dog will be effectively protected and able to go to his everyday walk, everywhere."
41308,2,Probably the most important season of South Park,"This isn't the best season, but that doesn't mean it isn't great. Season 4 of South Park is probably the most important season of all South Park seasons. Why? well because:* A new and very important charecter makes his debut; Timmy* The boys move to the 4th grade* The truth about Mr. Garrison is revealed* The episodes ""Do the Handicapped Go To Hell"" and ""Probably"" show what happens to Satan after the movie.All episodes on season four are great, except for ""Pip"". The episode ""Pip"" is about the British charecter Pip. If you're a fan of Dickinson's novel ""Great Expectations"" then you'll like that episode, if you aren't then chances are you won't like that episode like most South Park fans.Long live the best TV show."
41348,2,A movie worth watching.,"A movie worth watching, it was a little much for young children. It did have a good story line it shows what is important in a person's life. I highly recommend it to teen children and their parents"
41388,2,Great song and nice music,I myself am not the bigest fan of 'My sweet lord' however I like all of George Harrisons music. If you don't know if you like his music or not I would get some of the Beatles albums that have songs on them like 'Taxman' or 'I Me Mine' however everyone should get 'My Sweet Lord' because its a good song and a great beat to it. I think its a very nice song!
41416,2,with the old breed,This book was as real as it gets. This author survived something he had no business surviving and lived to tell the tale. Riveting and every bit as good as the reviews.
41475,2,Great Gift!,My mom loves this collection! I bought it for her as a gift and she enjoys working out to it.
41557,2,CLIVE BARKER GIVES US HELL !!!!!!!!!!!!,"When Hellraiser came out in the late 80's it was a great horror film and not only that,but it introduced us to the infamous pinhead!!!!!! The vision takes us to the depths of hell and the clive did a great job of doing that!!!!!!! This one is always going to be the classic out of the Hellraiser films and i think its a must in any horror collection!!!!"
41595,2,Pretty Good!,This is an alright book.It is no five star book but it is good.The plot is not that good but the way he sweeps you up in this girl and you just want to know what happens to her is a very good read.If you are looking for Grisham's best this is not it.But if you are looking for a good read then I recomened this book.
41621,2,One of the Best FPS of all time!,"Having played numerous amounts of video games over the years, I feel that I have a good sense of the difference between a good one and a bad one. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, on the XBOX 360 was no doubt one of my favorite games of all time. Although the campaign lacked depth in its story at times, it was extremely intense and the graphics were awesome. The multilayer aspect of the game is what makes it great, though. Even though I have played COD4 online for over 10 days on Xbox Live, I never feel bored with it."
41713,2,Humorous introduction to Economics,"This books uses real world examples to debunk some of the common misconceptions and preconceived notions people have about economics. In business school, I used this book to get an overall perspective on the topic to avoid getting lost in the details. A must read for any one who has always wanted to learn more about economics but was afraid to ask...."
41717,2,"A grower. Still, inferior to their 80s material","Like many reviewers here stated, this album will probably grow on you with time and repeated spins. Just like it did on me. It's a far cry from what classic Slayer played, yet, a good one in its own right.This record doesn't offer much in terms of classic thrash assets, like solos, melody, complex rhythms, etc. Instead, it further moves Slayer sound into hardcore realm. The music is all about playing heavy simple instrumentals with ferocious p**sed-off vocals of Tom layered over the music. But it works!A very angry recording."
41734,2,Great dress!,Received the dress in time for my daughter's party and my lil princess loved her fairy tale dress! Would definitely recommend the seller to my friends.
41753,2,the nick of time!!,We ordered this video for a class my husband is teaching and it arrived in perfect condition one day before he needed it...just in the nick of time!!
41757,2,cheap but good,this thing gets the job done. it was exacty what i was looking for at the right price. the box it comes in is hilarious because it has a photo of a full wine of glass on it...ha. bought one for a friend. i'm sure there's way nicer ones out there but this is great for me.
41772,2,movie,It is a movie for all to see and I would tell my friends to which it!! and peopel I meet in the store..
41812,2,perfect for crafting,"I purchased this so I could punch some holes in a leather panel (cut into hearts) and sew the hearts onto knitted slippers as an anti-skid precaution. Works perfectly for my crafting needs: easy to use, easy to change the punch size, and had no issues going through two layers of light-weight crafting leather."
41900,2,breaking bad,I bought season one and sent it to my son in texas.He hasn't seen breaking bad before but is now a die hard fan of the show. Therefore I sent him season two. He is now watching season two and anticipating season three.
41906,2,Beethoven Trios,"These trios are exceptionally presented. Some are typical chamber music of the time, but that is Beethoven's choice, not the fault of the players. Other trios are sublime, such as the Arch Duke trio and the Allegreto in B flat and several others that have a strong melodic line. The piano, violin, and cello work closely together and are well balanced. I am especially struck by Berenbohm's piano technique (Esp at the last movement of the piano trio in G Op1, #2) and du Pre's soft cello building harmonies throughout the trios."
41918,2,good movie,I always loved this movie. So much so that I turn it off once things take a turn for the worse because I was able to relate to and feel for the actors because of their great portrayl of the characters that they used to play. Watch this movie
41923,2,Received as promise,"We received the DVD when promised, and it was as advertised. It was a gift and the person is enjoying it."
41946,2,Great,"This CD I believe is an extension of the Box Car Racer album. So good. Totally different direction, I love it. I was starting to get really tired of Blink playing in the pop-punk category, because I knew they had this kind of potential. Thank you Blink182 for releasing an album that really shows your true musical character."
42111,2,Tops of 2002,"I've been listening to this cd for months and was glad to see Amazon have it available. It is without question in my top 2 or 3 for 2002. There are many great songs here and the recording quality is superb. The song 'THE ONE BEFORE THE LAST' may be one of the best songs they have ever recorded. For those of you expecting a cd of all up-tempo rockers you will be diappointed. But,you will end up like I did and become so tied up in this cd that this point soon is a past memory. I see this band growing so much in their musical ability and I hope they don't get discouraged by their overlooked greatness.It seems odd to me that the people of Spain have embraced this band like they have and we can't seem to give them their just due. I'm just glad I was fortunate enough to get this new cd because it has been a joy to listen to these past months."
42195,2,Collar falls apart but mechanisms serve their purpose,"My dog definitely learned his lesson not to have a snack from the cat litter box, but the collar itself frayed easily. I have an Olde English Bulldogge, so even with his heftiness and stubbornness the shock in this collar made an effect. It is hard to replace the battery if you ever need to. The range for the sensor is spotty at times. On the same setting, sometimes it shocks at five feet away, sometimes at just one foot away. But again, it works! More than hurt my dog and punish him for going near the sensor, it almost just confused him and quickly made him not want to take the chance. What's nice is it beeps when the shock element is triggered. Even if it didn't shock him, we could hear that he was going near it and could intercept. It is a pain that you have to buy a new expensive sensor for each area of the home you want your dog to stay away from, but doable if your dog is misbehaved! I would recommend this product."
42204,2,Handy Bowls,"Corningware Corelle Coordinates 3-Piece Bowl Set, Secret GardenNice looking set! I used it to take a mousse to someone's house. The large bowl is nice as a fruit bowl, too. Just be sure not to use a metal utensil in them as the surface will scrape. They are heavy, but sturdy."
42340,2,One of the most beautiful movies...,"This movie was the absolute ANCHOR of my childhood. I'm 16 now but I used to watch it multiple times a year around 8, 9, and even 10 years ago.I am a proud owner of The Iron Giant on VHS, but had no luck finding the DVD in any of the stores around me. You can't imagine how ecstatic I was when I found a NEW copy for so cheap on Amazon.This movie has never failed to make me cry, and the story is fabulous with humor that both adults and children will enjoy.A timeless classic. Will always be one of my favorite movies."
42353,2,Love it!,"It's at a great price compared to others similar. It's easy to use once you get the hang of it. I recommend this for older babies that already have head control even though it says you can for infants. The instructions it comes with are crude but it's a basic design that's easy to figure out. I started using it when my baby was round 6 months and it was comfy and easy to use for quick trips to the store or a stroll around the park. He started walking at 10 months so I don't really use it anymore but it's still in good conditions so I think my new nephew will inherit it ;) It gets tiresome after more then an hour or two but I imagine most would. The designs are nice and the material is good.I found myself still semi carrying him and him clinging onto me but I did feel he was safe and comfy.All in all, I definitely recommend this product and would buy it again. Babies love being close to their mommies so this encourages bonding :)"
42385,2,"A Land Remembered, Patrick D. Smith","A wonderful, historical novel of the Mitchner style, which brings to life three generations of Central Florida's history. It is the best book of this type I have read. There are others which are close, including a three volume history of the area around Everglade City which begins with the title, ""They are Killing Mr. Watson."""
42449,2,Three Stories of Galicia,"This film shows three bright lights in a sea or horrors. It demonstrates that there are people who will do what is right despite potentially devastating consequences. While movies with such difficult topics are usually painful to watch, this one is uplifting."
42486,2,Very Enjoyable!!,My 2 year daughter absolutely love Diego. At first she was into Dora but she loves and dances to all the Diego songs and I find myself singing along with her at times. So this disc is definitely a thumbs up.
42554,2,Good buy!,"I am very happy with my purchase. I found that the 7.5 ft tall tree I have, that breaks down into three pieces, fit perfectly, with room to spare in the bag. I was expecting a silver colored bag, but it was a nice red color. The stitching was great, the handles are perfect. The material they used to construct the bag, was durable enough. And yes, I dragged it down an apartment hallway to the storage room with no tears."
42583,2,OH YES FOR DAPHNE'S,"A beautiful and elegant cookbook with simple recipes that produce restaurant style food. The photography gives you great ways of presenting the food. The book also incorporates a nice selection of wines to compliment the food. One dish that blew my friends away was ""tuna with marsala, peppers and olives"". A definite for all Italian cuisine lovers!"
42602,2,Loving Napoleon,I haven't read the book yet. Oh wait.... maybe I have. I can't remember. I love all these mysteries and who cares if I can't remember which ones I've read & which ones remain to be read??? Go for it - mysteryophiles!!!
42645,2,Steve Martin gives a shameful comedic performance,"I actually saw this movie thinking it was going to be funny (since it starred Steve Martin). Aren't I dumb?! As a mystery/thriller, it's very complexing and could have a dozen different meanings to it. That's the fun part; it's up to YOU to decide what the ending all means. It's YOUR time, now, buster! YOU've got the floor!Bruce Campbell Scott gives a quietly touching performance. Steve Martin's role is totally unfunny and he didn't make me laugh once (which is probably because he wasn't given a funny dialogue; it's the screenwriter's fault! Boo the screenwriter! Hooray for the director, though)."
42652,2,great addition,The card with the reader is worth the few extra dollars to get. It makes photo sharing or downloading to multiple computers much easier.
42712,2,Multi-use!,"This infant support is wonderful~~you can move it from the swing,to the bouncy chair, then into the washing machine without missing a beat!!!The only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars, is that it would be nice to have an alternate material for the summer months, as this fleece is perfect for winter, but baby gets warm fast in the warmer months."
42748,2,sad..powerful..yet disappointing,"I was expecting something a little different based on the review Oprah gave the book on her show. However, although I found myself engrossed until the end I was disappointed because I expected a brighter outcome,,,there was no sign of happiness all thoughout the book. It was indeed a powerful description of the life of an unattractive black girl. It made me try to understand what that must feel like."
42764,2,"Not just a house, it's a home","A very fun story. There are a lot of memories here that are shared and there's even a little bit of information that some of the family members try not to share. What a unique story.....moving a house because of a last request from a father who has passed away. Truely a fun, quick, unique read. Read this book, it's intriguing as well as fun and will give you a lift."
42774,2,Another good effort from Queen of Country,"This is the first album Reba recorded after falling in love with her manager, Narvel Blackstock, and her happiness shows through on this 16th studio album (hence the title). This is also the first studio album by a female artist to remain at number one on the Billboard Charts for an unprecedented 13 weeks. It contains the hits ""Cathy's Clown,"" ""Little Girl,"" and ""Walk On."" Other highlights of the album include the self-penned ""It Always Rains on Saturdays,"" and ""Am I the Only One Who Cares,"" two of Reba's best song-writing efforts, and the up-tempo, feel-good ""A New Love."" The one thing absent is a trademark Reba heart-wrenching ballad, unless you count ""Cathy's Clown."" I guess that's what falling in love will do to you."
42778,2,Exactly What I Needed,"I mounted the winch in a permenant position and use it with a series of pulleys to raise my canoe to the rafters in the garage(the canoe is designed for hunting and is extra wide ---- it weighs around 120 lbs.). Once the canoe is in position I secure it with a couple of ratchet straps, which take the weight off of the winch.The manufacturer states that the winch should not be used as a ""lifting device"", but at 120 lbs. the risks are minimal and the winch performs very well."
42779,2,It's cable,"The spool and cable were actually alot smaller than I anticipated. Not the diameter, that was clear, but the whole package was only about 9"" in diameter and 4"" deep. Weighed probably about 20-30lbs. Cable is nice, smooth to grab. Used it for a zip line."
42784,2,learning fun,I bought this product for my Kg students. They are loving it. The only thing I would suggest is a bag for the stamps or a cover for the wooden box it comes in.
42875,2,daughter loves this doll!,"My 10 month old daughter got this Stella doll as a christmas gift. She absolutely LOVES the doll. It's soft and cuddly. I'm a bit disappointed though that I cannot seem to keep the pants and diaper up on the doll. As soon as she starts playing, the pants fall right off. I'll probably end up making some custom outfits for her because this doll gets played with a LOT!"
42876,2,Huge Hit!!!,"I got this for my baby girl when she was about 6 months old. One of her favorite things to do is take the paci off and put it back on. So simple, yet so fun for her! She likes to give baby Stella hugs. Like others have pointed out, Stella is cute, not creepy like other available options for a first doll. I am very happy with my purchase."
42895,2,"Great mount, but be carefull...","I love this mount, so easy to remove your unit(4-screws) for service or to add a subwoofer RCA cable if you later decide to add a subwoofer to your car.But... it wouldn't fit my 2002 Ford Escape opening w/o major cutting/modifing the dash.So I couldn't use it, arrr! Maybe I can sell it on e-Bay?"
42917,2,Is it grate or what?,"For draining drying dusting or whatever, this square mesh is the best answer. Ladder like grates often have too wide spacing for good suupport of your baked goods. The half pan size is small enough for most ovens and even for small tasks easy to use . For larger tasks nothing can beat it in the home kitchen when paired with a half size baker's sheet pan"
42984,2,Higher appreciation for those low on the social ladder,"This movie was so funny, after I saw it, I knew I had to own it. It's good whether you're a girl or a guy, and if you like 80s music, it has an awesome soundtrack. It really shines light on the underdog in high schoool, and the best part is when Mira Sorvino tells off the nasty girl that she hates so much."
43021,2,Fantastic book!,"I belong to a book club and we've never selected a ""mystery"" for our discussion until I suggested ""Secret Sanction"". The plot is absolutely current and riveting. It will force you to think about all the military actions going on today. The characters are realistic, believable and have depth. The objectivity with which the author approaches the subject is both intriguing and enlightening. The women of my book club thought the book was terrific and it certainly generated quite a lot of discussion."
43032,2,vibrant awakening,"simply put, nestor's music arouses a vibrancy, throbbing with hopefulness, that gets others moving and wakes up a spirit to advance. every person i've shared this cd with agrees, that after listening to the music, and allowing the sounds to ""wash over"" them, they feel a lightness in heart and mind. in a time when music can be so heavy and dark, nestor continues to strive to bring a more joyful feeling to his listeners, and delivers over and over again. go nestor!"
43084,2,Great headphones,"I needed something that kept out the noise of my family and let me hear the TV. These worked perfectly. These are not for audiophiles, who require perfect sound. I don't think that exists in wireless headphones. It took a little work to get them hooked up correctly through my receiver, so I can listen to music, cable, dvd, vhs, etc. After that, it is easy to use and adjust and charge."
43124,2,trace,this mans music just gets better and still has a sexy voice for a countryboy. his music is all about the average persons life plus its just plain fun to listen too.
43191,2,Wrath of the Titans,I thought I had already reviewed this product. I love the movie.I hate when the site updates there sites and can't keep the ratings and notes on the items.
43249,2,greatbook,"This is a wonderful book. The author does a great job of being sincere without being too sentimental. I highly recommend it.In addition, the book was delivered in great condition and in a timely manner."
43253,2,Couldn't put it down,"I adored this book. Julia's style, as relayed by Alex Prud'homme, is so lively, you can almost hear her voice and experience her irrepressible ebullience. Her zest for life in general and food in particular is positively contagious. As a Francophile myself, I shared her awe and delight in all things French. Paul Child's photos add a wonderful density to this sensuous account of Julia's life in France."
43377,2,magnífica obra,"Esta es una obra magistral, donde el amor y la ignorancia luchan en los cuerpos de siglos pasados. Archirecomendado."
43382,2,Refreshing!,This book was unexpectedly good read for me. A refreshing story by a refreshing author - what's not to like?
43409,2,Excellent noise reduction,"Bought these to wear while working around my air compressor which is VERY noisy. Since I can't find a decent clamp-on air valve that actually works, I have to sit there and hold the valve on the air tank while it fills up. My hearing is already somewhat damaged from all the concerts I went to when I was younger, I didn't want to risk finishing the job so I bought these. They work great to cut out the compressor noise. I can still hear it a little but I'm only sitting 3 feet away from the compressor. All in all I'm well pleased with this set of noise-cancelling earmuffs. For some reason mine were all black which is fine with me, they look great! -kd5-"
43486,2,Memories revisited,"First read this book when it was first publised. Bought it for a friend who lent it to me to read. We both enjoyed this story, which included both sides of the air war during WWII. Reading this book sparked a life long interest in planes and WWII in particular. I especially liked the inclusion of reference to actual characters."
43691,2,Very happy with purchase,The movie arrived in perfect condition. I'm a Chicago native and enjoyed the Chicago scenery. Good flick at a fair price!
43705,2,nice product!,"I have recently decided that glass is the way to go to microwave or for storage!I bought two sets of these dishes .This allows me to make and save two portions for my husband and I, and more for later. The glass dishes are very easy to take care of with no worries of chemicals from plastic containers. my husband who hates to clean this type of item even offer himself to wash them now. I also freeze some food away in these and they are easy to microwave. I use them every day and haven't had any issues with them."
43735,2,Definitely a good thing!,I love what Prince (he'll always be Prince to me) has done with his classic 1999! The funky groove he has added make it more with the times. He is a true Artist!!
43875,2,no real reason for the sticker,"I have wanted to buy this album for years and never did maianly because i don't like buying albums with partental advisory stickers, but after i bought 8701 and liked it so much i broke down and bought this one. There is some dirty sexaul talk on the lil kim and usher track just like me, but there is nothing else explecit on the cd. this album along with tyrese 2000 watts really did'nt deserve thier stickers. I know this album is not for little kids, but to have the same sticker that enmeiem and kid rock have is to me not right. So if you have debated on buying this because of the label, don't you would be missing a great r and b cd that is actaully less dirty then some that don't have sticker's such as ruff endz love crime's and the now stickered janet jackson all for you which is flithe that is neither art nor music."
43880,2,Great solo effort,"I've loved this album since it first came out! ""Something To Grab For"" is as good as any Cars song. Like another reviewer said, it will grow on you. Overall sets a different mood than what you expect from the ""Cars sound"". Definitely a must have at the cheap price."
43884,2,How sexy is an ancient Carpathian warrior??,"VERY!!!! Traian is amazing. Dark Descent is breathtakingly arousing and quite the adrenaline pumper. You begin with action and end wanting more. Ms. Feehan has done a superb job continuing her Dark Series, this is a must have for all Carpathian fans. I'd love to give this more than 5 stars!!!"
43914,2,The old spy in the box trick!,What a great show......I mean really the box set is very very well designed and mostly everything about it is top notch and at the time the price was too good to pass up. Highly recommend to any fan!
43920,2,Describing a book about a childhood,"We think the book was pretty good, because of the descriptions of the different incidents. We got the chance to look into the English school system from the old days. How the boys got punished with the cane, and about the teachers behaviour towards the pupils. We also liked Roald Dahl's exact description on how things worked and looked like. For instance describing his different pranks and his different teachers.To sum up: This book was an easy reader, which gave us the opportunities to learn different words and phrases! :)"
43930,2,This pan works for what I need.,"I like this pan. I line it with foil and cook bacon in the oven (25 minutes @ 400.) It just barely fits into one of my side by side gas ovens.Other reviewers mentioned it warping. MOST metal (particularly aluminum) will deform when heated. Mine, like other reviewers, however, came with a warp, but that doesn't interfere with the this purpose specific item. (Aluminum will warp when heated or cooled abruptly.)The rolled edges ARE the way that professional cookware is made. The pan I got had smoothed edges - half roll - and I don't think you could cut yourself on it without a lot of trying.So, all in all a 4 star due to the mishandling. It should NOT have been warped out of the package, but I would put the blame on UPS for that particular problem, although I can't prove it."
43933,2,"It's irony on a base level, but you can get a hoot.","The same people that he believed himself sent to earth to save, their the ones that crucify him. Quick breakdown of the book; The first four hundred pages were good, the next fifty I didn't really care for, then the the last fifty I really enjoyed"
44028,2,Yes ... it ...WAS... a resource hog,"I have used ZA for many years and was a pretty delighted customer until version 7 came out. When I upgraded I got LONG boot times, checking for updates was very CPU intensive and ZA would bring my machine to its knees at various times. (This is a P4 with 1Gb of RAM). Interestingly the same version of the software worked FINE on my P3 laptop so ... apparently these performance issues were the result of some kind of resource conflicts I could never track down. I was ready to uninstall and switch to Norton or someone else but found a newly released version on the ZA website V 7.0.462.000.For me at least this new version fixed all of my performance issues and I am back to being a happy ZA customer once again."
44048,2,One of my Favorites!,I am a huge fan of F. Scott Fitzgerald. I chose him for my author in high school for a project and absolutely loved reading all of his stories. This book is a slow read and you have to become invested in the story to actually care about all the details he adds. I just love his writing and this book it one of my favorites.
44055,2,I already have the movie. Bought it from the mall. And I have to say its the best Inuyasha movie ever!!!!!,The third Inuyasha movie is the best. It has his father in it and everything. And the moment we've been waiting for the clash of the brothers Inuyasha versus Shashomarru. This movie is so amazing any Inuyasha fan or Anime fan should buy this movie its worth the money. But they could've giving the DVD a lot more special features. But it has a pretty good amount not the good amount that I was expecting anyways the movie is awsome its well worth the money. Totosai is so halarious in this movie. Anyways buy this movie I had no regrets buying this movie for 24$ at the mall. Get this movie its awsome!!!!
44077,2,"Kurt Nilsen ""I""",I was fortunate enough to watch World Idol. Fortunate because I found Kurt Nilsen. Occasionally life hands you a pleasant surprise as was the case here. I was blown away by his voice. I knew he would win the moment I heard him. I have been a big fan ever since. I have not stopped playing this CD since I bought it and continually search online for more music by Kurt and his band Fenrik Lane. I would recommend this CD to anyone. He is a breath of fresh air in the idol world since he writes his own music and plays guitar and other instruments as well. He is a multi-talented caring young man who deserves to be a worldwide superstar.
44086,2,The whole world in front of her,"Norah Jones seems to have filled a void in the music industry, recalling past female rock singers/songwriters such as Carley Simon and Rickie Lee Jones. There really isn't much that is new here, but Jones does have a style all her own that is very pleasant to see and hear. The music seems to come from within and flow effortlessly outward to a public that appears to have grown jaded with teeny boppers like Britney Spears. While I don't imagine Jones will displace Spears and her ilk, she certainly provides for a refreshing alternative on the airwaves, and hopefully will encourage other young women songwriters to follow suit. ""Come Away With Me,"" would be an apt description of this DVD. It provides for a nice musical flight of fantasy and even a few improvisations, which show that Norah Jones has the whole world in front of her."
44107,2,Music lover,I purchased this as a gift. My son was very excited and told me that he wanted me to get this for him. Glad I did not disappoint. He loves these films and books.
44141,2,a general old time living off the land,I had fun reading some of the old folk remidies and stories. You can get this book for free as a download.
44155,2,Very happy with Extendatrunk in 2006 Wrangler,"All good. East to install and great fit and looks. Largest storage space. Three issues with instructions:1. They say to partially tighten the five bolts that hold the unit together but do not say when to tighten them. Turns out they can be fully tightened and the cover plate put on before ever putting the trunk into a 2006 Wrangler.2. The gap between the sliding top and the jeep door when the jeep soft top retaining bar is removed was not described. Some method should be included to resolve that gap by limiting the trunk top from sliding too far forward. However this is not a big deal.3. There were no instructions on using the ""tool"" to insert and compress the jeep side attachment points."
44373,2,Fabulous novel,"THE LAST JIHAD is a fabulous novel. Wow! Great plot, interesting characters. I couldn't put it down. You gotta read this book."
44420,2,Excellent resource for church pastors and leaders in cities.,An excellent resource for pastors and church leaders in downtown areas. Contains the story of one church in Orlando Florida and how the pastor and members developed programs to nurture church survival and growth. Examples given are applicable to all churches especially in urban areas.
44435,2,Cesar et Rosalie,"Released in 1972, this movie is a classic period piece of French cinema. Fascinated with the concept of ""menage a trois"", the three main characters Cesar (Yves Montand), Rosalie (Romy Schneider), and David (Sami Frey) are interestedly developed and acted perfectly as members of a love triangle. The french male-female dynamic on the eve of ""women's lib"" gives another interesting twist to the movie. It goes beyond the ""wimsey"" of the movie ""Jules et Jim"". I highly recommend this movie to anyone interested in exploring French cinema."
44470,2,"compelling story, appalling grammar/punctuation","The story and atmosphere of the book are compelling. The production values, however, are appalling and distracting. Was there no editor available who knows English? If they manage to do a second printing, for the sake of future readers, I hope they can afford to properly edit the text.Even with the obvious mistakes, the story itself makes reading the book worthwhile."
44530,2,Excellent product!,"I love these! The suction on the buttom is great. I also love that they have lids and that they stack into each other. Thanks, Munchkins!"
44554,2,Very Good Introduction,"I like the conversational manner with which the author treats his subject. I would have liked to see more time spent on the 8051 Instruction Set but perhaps the author assumed that the reader would use the databooks (if so, he should have stated this.) This book alone does not explain the Instruction Set sufficiently. The use of a simulator is a very good idea. However, be warned that if you want to keep using the UMPS simulator after the trial period you will have to pay $650.00! This is more than most users will want to spend. My first printing has lots of annoying typos. I sincerely hope that subsequent printings will fix these. I noted 70 to 80 typos and errors."
44562,2,Bounces great and not as huge as SB-600,"I have been using this with my D40 since April of this year. I love it. I wanted something that would bounce and which would cycle faster than the internal flash. This does both.I suspect the SB-600 would cycle even faster but it's so BIG. I also would like to be able to bounce sideways and use it wirelessly as a remote flash (SB-600 can do both, I believe, though I'd have to use my D70 to control it remotely) but the size (small) made it a winner for me over the SB-600.Now I have a Sto-Fen Omni-Bounce diffuser for the SB-400 and that's just great for outdoors stuff where there's no ceiling to bounce off of. I love my D40+SB-400+Ombni-Bounce diffuser combo.Wonderful for taking portraits and shots of my little girl.12 November 2008 update: My SB-600 works great with my current DSLR, a Nikon D200."
44567,2,Palm Treo and Centro 2.5mm to 3.5mm headphone adapter,"The 2.5 mm to 3.5 mm adapter works fine. Be aware not any 2.5 to 3.5 mm jack works, all the visible dimensions of the 2.5 mm jack are unique to Palm Treo and Centro and matter."
44647,2,travel tested - luv it,"well, I have my case for over a year now and it's still workingI travel a lot, expecially by plane and I think everybody knows what that means...I'm used to have my GBA in my hand luggage and so it needed some kind of protecion.This mini case is perfect!I can carry 2 games with it (3 if you leave one IN the GBA) and until now it never opend by itself.My GBA got no damages after all the checking it got at every airport I've been.Also, because of all the stress at airports nowadays, it's quite normal (for me *gg*) to accidentally drop my purse. Even so neither the GBA nor the case itself got ANY damage.I really recommend it"
44747,2,Another Martin Prechtel book delights me!,"I haven't had time to read it yet so don't feel that I am in a position to review it. I have a stack of books to take with me travelling this winter....so try me after April, ok?"
44767,2,Beautiful knife system,"This is a wonderfully made ""combo"" knife from Victorinox. The extra long saw blade really comes in handy for cutting branches for making primitive fire bows and kindling for practicing fire making on your survival outings. This is a slightly larger frame knife than the other combo knives but the extra beefiness is well worth it to me."
44890,2,"Filter great, but confused why per unit cost goes UP with multiple packs","These filters work great in my GE monogram refrigerator, but the per unit price actually increases when you buy them as a pack (at least at the time of this review)."
44892,2,Just what I needed.,I was glad to be able to get this filter via the internet. It was a cinch to install even for a 76 year old woman.
44927,2,Decent but not the best.,"I've had this program. I'm using Click N Burn Pro now and it is as easy to use, less expensive and has the same features. Save some money and go with Click N Burn."
45100,2,goodness,"i had just finished reading My Sister's Keeper so I had great expectations for Salem Falls. Fortunetly, Salem Falls was good, i was not let down. The two are different kinds of books but each are goodness! Salem Falls covers many different topics like trust, love, and forgiveness. all great topics!! :)"
45113,2,Adorable Turtle Charm,"I love turtles and I saw this charm and thought that it would be a really nice addition to my turtle necklace collection. It is a very dainty charm, and the sapphires were quite a bit darker than I expected them to be, but I do think it's very pretty and I am glad I bought it."
45263,2,Got this for the range,"Got these glasses for range shooting, and theyre awesome. They fit great they don't fog up and have a nice tint to them so it'll work great outdoors and indoors. Can't beat the price so if your thinking bout getting them and don't want to break the bank go for it."
45273,2,A leisurely british read,"I enjoyed this book, it offers up light entertainment with a bit of a laugh. If you want to unwind & relax this will hit the spot. If you're after action & excitement however look elsewhere. It's extremely easy to read & I would recommend it to most readers."
45341,2,Perfect Gift,"I have attended Judy Ginsburgh's concerts and I always end up buying several of her CDs. It is always a difficult choice to choose which one I like best. She has a beautiful, warm and clear voice and her style is perfect for young children. This new collection at a very affordable price makes my choice easy. I don't have to decide which CDs to buy for my grandchildren, I can buy the whole collection containing 4 CDs and over 75 songs. No more decisions, just buy the collection. Your grandchildren (and their parents)will love you!"
45414,2,Good group of well-sculpted models... but hardly any archers.,"As with all Games Workshop models these are sculpted well and in great poses. They're easy to paint and are almost all one pieces, which makes them a bit more durable than some of their other plastic models.That said, this box set contains a rather confusing mix of units. Instead of an even 8-8-8 of hand weapon-bow-random special weapon armed models, you get 8 with sword and shield, 8 with two-handed weapons, 4 with 'spears', and 4 archers. Uh...what? So...you do get 24, at least (unlike the stupid Army of the Dead set), but you have 4 generic 'hand weapons' orcs (who uses those in big numbers anyway?) and only 4 with bows...so you HAVE to get another box to have only ONE full archer company. WHY do this to us? :-)"
45418,2,Un buen documental para Trail Runners,"Un DVD muy bien montado, buena banda sonora, buenos paisajes, entrevistas y caracteristicas especiales como perfiles del recorrido y distancias. Se echa de menos los subtitulos en castellano pues hay mucho dialogo y entrevistas. Hacen falta mas documentales de este tipo."
45421,2,Wild ride.,"Dirty Harry is the ultimate guy flick but as a woman in her mid-twenties -I have to say this movie rocks! Clint Eastwood is awesome in this crime drama, the dude who plays the killer is one horrific actor but otherwise than that Dirty Harry is pure fun. Buy it now!"
45423,2,"Meet ""Dirty"" Harry Callahan","Harry Callahan (Clint Eastwood) hates ""punks"" with a passion. So when a sniper named Scorpio threatens to kill a person a day until the city of San Francisco pays him $100,000, Harry hunts down the killer with great relish. Trouble is, Scorpio keeps slipping the police and claiming new victims. Enraged, Harry breaks all the rules to bring in his man. Despite some controversy over police brutality and victims' rights, this is a riveting police action thriller. Harry is an engaging character with wonderful one liners and a laconic calm in the face of mayhem. Scorpio is such a scumbag that we never seem to question Harry's unorthodox methods, and there are some wonderful scenes with him butting heads with his superiors. Followed by four worthy sequels."
45424,2,QUALITY PICTURE AND SOUND,THE PICTURE AND SURROUND SOUND ARE BETTER THAN THE REVIEW GIVEN BY WIDESCREEN REVIEW. THIS IS A CLINT EASTWOOD CLASSIC. IT LOOKS GREAT AND SOUNDS EXCELLENT IN THE SURROUND FORMAT. I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE QUALITY OF THIS MOVIE WHICH WAS FILMED ALMOST THIRTY YEARS AGO!
45483,2,Music for early morning Yoga,"'Dhyana' means 'meditation' in Sanskrit. As the name suggests, Dhyana at Daybreak creates a meditative environment, especially in the early morning. Raga Gunkali (first track) is a sublime melody which helps the mind to go inward. The next raga, Basant Mukhari is another morning melody which continues the introspective feeling created by Gunkali. Finally, there is a short rendition of Bhairavi which reinforces the feeling of surrendering to the supreme spirit and gives a fitting conclusion.Tabla rendered by Shafat Ahmad Khan has excellent tonal quality and it enhances the sublime quality of the music. This album is especially suited for people who prefer to perform early morning Yoga with music in the background.It is difficult to bring out the effect of music in words, especially for sublime albums like this. One has to listen to the music to have the real experience.HPR"
45518,2,A hidden jewel,"Hands down the best gaelic, celtic, folk, whatever you want to call it band out there. Very down to earth real music. Lots of sad tunes to cry into your beer with, and a several jigs to tap your foot too."
45583,2,Princess Consuela Banana Hammock's Finest Hour!,"Really do not understand the backlash here. Ten years is an EXTREMELY long time for a tv show to be on the air, and in all honesty, even though this is not my favorite show of all time, it is the most consistent that I have in my collection. You want to see a show bottom out? Try All in the Family when Mike and Gloria move out. WOW!Certainly not every gag is a winner, Joey pretending to speak French is simply not believable (even for Joey) but all in all this show still rocks. Throw in character growth with Monica and Chandlers 'baby', changes with Phoebe (married), and Rachael FINALLY coming to grips with Ross and you have a show that is still a winner.I'm just sad to see it end, and at least it ends FAR better than Seinfeld. Right? Kudo's to Kevin S. Bright and staff for providing me with as many tears as laughs.. how many 'comedies' can claim that?"
45610,2,"Depeche Mode ""Violator"" is stylin'","I recently purchased this CD and recorded it on my computer with Windows Media Player. My favorite track ""World in my Eyes"" gets a lot of play. The Windows Media Player is just software (codecs) so the CD doesn't get worn out. There is a lot of bass in this music and I do like bass. Actually it just digitizes the analog music tracks and then copies them to the hard disk. Pretty tight too - 160 K bps. Make that 64 K bps. I guess I don't need to sample ""Violator"" any more."
45631,2,AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING,"It literally took me a few years to really get properly into this album, and I was a definite Paul Simon fan. Now I'm quite convinced that it's his very best work, and among the greatest recordings of the 20th century. I've not too much to say about it, but for two things:I. Spirit Voices: it's totally awesome that Paul Simon - my man - recorded a song about drinking ayahuasca.II. The Cool, Cool River: my favorite song from the album, it features the most amazing, quiet bridges. Oddly enough, I think this one sounds like it's describing Mohammed Atta and his crew. Anger and no one can heal it slides through the metal detector...the cool, cool river sweeps the wild, wide ocean. The entire song sound like the sentiment of a raging, disaffected man intent on destroying from the inside the ""wild wide ocean"" of forces much greater than him. That's my .02."
45674,2,Hot Dancefloor Track,"This is an excellent club/dance song by Thelma Houston. Her vocals are robust, soulful & firery as always. The music is great as well. This song rocketed to the top 10 and peaked at #5 on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart. Anyone that is into 90's dance music should get this, you will not be dissappionted."
45695,2,What a deal!,"This wallet is everything it is advertised to be, and more. The workmanship is great, the leather is nice and not too thin, and it definitely has plenty of room and slots to hold much more than just your spare change!The best part, though, has got to be the price! It is incredible to be able to purchase a leather wallet of this quality at this price. Even if it only lasts me a year, it will certainly be worth it's cost to me (I've owned leather wallets that have only lasted that long and they were 4 times more expensive than this one).The wallet is definitely BIG, as its name implies. Fortunately, with the large handbags now in vogue, this will not be a problem for most women! I plan on purchasing several more as gifts. Just a great product, all around!"
45736,2,BEST DESERTS EVER,"The deserts are wonderful, I ate myself into a frenzy with the peanutbutter cookies, and they were all made with splenda you betcha, I no longer crave sugar free deserts I cook them.This book is truly a gift to share with others. Just like my new beverage of choice that replaced my morning brew. Its called s oyfee and taste so wonderful with no caffeine or acids. Organic and made from soya! Bye bye acid stomach and hello healthy tummy! Google it under ""acid free coffee""I just got the book and I made the Heavenly Cheesecake. It was the best cheesecake I have ever had. Honestly. I am amazed that it has no sugar. It also tastes so rich that it is hard to believe it is low in fat. I would recommend the book on this recipe alone, although, there are many more recipes that I am anxious to try. For anyone watching the sugar, fat, or calories in their diet, this book really is unbelievable."
45806,2,Like Nothing I've Ever Read,"I found it by accident when looking for a western to begin a couple hours before turning in one night. I'd been listening to Townes Van Zandt and wanted a novel full that kind of space and poetry. But it needed to be a western. It was available in ebook format from my local library and it immediately made my chest rise and fall and I could not sleep through the whole night. The next day I bought the physical copy to hold when finished. When I did finish, I read the last paragraph over and again. You don't review these books, you stand in wonder."
45900,2,Sparks does it again.,"My first Sparks book was ""Three Weeks With My Brother"" and after that I was hooked he a great author and this book just proves it. He keeps you and the edge of your seat the whole time wanting to flip to the next page or to the next chapter. I highly recommend this book to anyone. I am a man and I loved it."
46066,2,Love the older music,"Bought this because I saw a documentary on Peter,Paul &Mary. Love their music and wanted something that would cover most of what I had heard so many years ago. By no means a complete selection of their music, but a very nice selection of their biggest hits from those years. Any fan will appreciate."
46084,2,Great bag...kinda short strap,Great bag with many pockets without being too bulky. Wish the strap had the ability to be a little longer though.
46086,2,awesome!!!!!,"dude, this cd is awesome. its different from all ther cds though. usely relient k has at least a couple off the wall songs that leave you laughing in confusion, but not this one. Mmmhmmm has one song thats not serious on this cd and thats maintain consciosness. which is really awesome. the rest of the song s are serious but funny at the same time.the only down side to this cd is theres no hidden song and theres no songs about the 80s. in the first one there was hello mcfly anatomy there was lion o which is about a cartoon from the 80s and in two lefts there was falling in love with the 80s but mmmhmm doesnt have one. but besides that cd is awesome. totally worth every penny."
46133,2,The book was better,"Although the movie was very good, I believe that, as always, the book was better."
46163,2,The harvest,Love it! Its fun to read somethings when you've already seen the movie or in this case the episode. Thanks Richie!
46177,2,Great product but not taken care of,I've used No-Ad since I was a little girl. It's the only sunblock/sunscreen that I can use without breaking out in a rash. Sadly the stores in my area don't carry it anymore so I had to buy it online. The reason I chose to buy this one was because there was not an outrageous shipping fee. The others charged like 5-6 bucks to ship this 16 oz bottle. The product itself is fine but the bottle does not look taken care of. It's dinged and the labels are pealing off so that is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. So over all product is excellent but I wish the seller would make sure his products are being taken better care of.
46201,2,"Enlightening, engaging, a must read for all students of scripture.","Thus book was ny introduction to the author and theologian Karl Barth and although he demanded that I read some of that which he had written twice. Both his insights and the mental stimulation I received caused me to purchase many of his other works. If anyone is looking for a book of substance look no further, his examination of the WORD and its relationship to the church/individual is excellent. One quote I now keep before me on an index card is: ""Let the word speak for itself."" That alone made the purchase of the book worth while."
46229,2,Best can operner I've experienced,"I've had this for a few years now, and it is standing strong like brand new, no rust, nicks, bends, and it gets a hard work out in my family. I have bought more for my sisters that want one too."
46297,2,Do the math---badly!,"Don't let ANYONE tell you the inability to understand math is a handicap. I bought 20 of these watches, and saved enough to buy a house! Certainly, it's modest house, but it's home.My friends were amazed that I could afford to buy these watches to begin with. Well, I wasn't able to afford them, of course, so after saving $15,000 on each, I returned them, saying they didn't fit.Without my stunning inability to grasp even the most basic math concepts, I would never have been able to imagine this plan, let alone execute it. And let me tell you, failing high school algebra I twice was a small price to pay for my beautiful new home!"
46341,2,pretty good.,I love the warriors seires but know there difrent I liked it better when Fierstar was the main cat. I dont like how Fethertail dies and Stormfur changes to stay with the tribe! and Graystripe gets taken by people. I wish that the cats did not have to leave the forest! Erin plese go back to Fierstar!
46365,2,"Wonderful, music BUT WHERE IS ""OPEN ROAD"" ??????","Please, please, powers that be, re-release, ok Ill say it, thebest album ever made, ""OPEN ROAD"".Even better than theCure's Pornography. Have the tapes been lost? Donovan, if you read this PLEASE get ""OPEN ROAD"" back out. WE NEED IT!"
46398,2,Makes theology accessible for the normal person,"This book is a very engaging explanation of Catholic theology. It never slips into academia, but is consistently written with the common man in mind. The author's excitement about theology comes through loud and clear, and takes you with him. And the explanations give you that ""Aha!"" moment of clarification that is so often lacking to Catholics. I would strongly recommend this book for anyone who wants to learn more about the Catholic faith."
46415,2,AT FIRST YOU FOOLED ME!!,BUT THAT AWESOME VOICE OF JAMES HATFIELD AWOKE ME! IT IS A GREAT RECORDING...IT LITERUALLY BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES. NOW I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF IT!! BUY IT TODAY!!!!!!
46425,2,Long inseam,The inseam is a bit longer than I care for in running shorts. It bunches up a little and you need to do a funky dance step to get it to drop again.
46428,2,Good hair clipper.,"I needed clippers since my husband ""forgets"" to get haircuts and they never seemed to be that good anyway. I don't really know how to cut hair, but I do a pretty good job with there.There are a ton of clip on measurements for different size cuts. It comes with a few combs that really where useful.For the price, I think its a great product. I've been using it for three years without any problems."
46436,2,Great Movie!,We love this movie! The quality was wonderful! We are really enjoying downloading movies from Amazon - it's been great!
46442,2,Great triple square set!,"I have a 2007 Vw gti. Tons of triple squares! This kit has helped me remove swaybars, streering wheel etc. Thus far they have held up great. The several times I've needed a triple square this small kit always has the right size!"
46467,2,great under foundation,"This is a great affordable product, love putting it on my neck and chest area as well. And it is great to use under foundations or foundation sticks (recommend Bobbie Brown) ."
46485,2,Good mystery,"I like Lisa Gardner. She teases, leads you on, and entertains with her stories. Lisa sprinkles a sarcastic wit throughout her text which I enjoy. Definitely a guilty pleasure."
46558,2,Brilliant,"I really like this story. It is a really short easy read. Steinbeck is a magician with language. He proves to be an articulate storyteller. What power, wisdom, emotion and wealth in this tale. The characters are crafted with such caution and are depicted humanely. If you haven't read this book you should read it. You'd definitely be missing out. I recommend this book to kids and adults. The themes here are greed, humanity, colonization. I was so impressed by this story. I was never interested in it before and judged this book by its cover. I had to read it for school thankfully and I think everyone else should read this, too. It is a sad story composed with beautifully and careless perfection. Deeply moving and very touching."
46578,2,i love tiz album,"After Mariah Carey's new album release of ""The Emancipation of Mimi"" in 2005. This album impacted her life by helping her reach the top. Personally I love this album, I love her voice, her words and most importantly I love the lyrics. My reason for loving this album is very simple; it's mainly because I can personally relate to this album. Songs such as ""shake it off"", ""we belong together"", ""mine again"", ""one and only"", ""I wish you knew"" and many others. This already makes 5 songs out of the whole entire album. Therefore, this album did make it to my top of the list for the year of 2005."
46619,2,LOVE IT!,"When I first bought this workout, I had no idea what to expect. As a dancer, I can say that this workout isn't quite as intense as a studio class, but its a great workout. The different segments add a lot of variety, and its become quite a hit amongst my friends. We've started to have our own ""cardio dance parties"", and love every moment of it. The steps are simple enough that if you don't get them the first time you do the workout, you will get them the second and third. Jennifer Galardi is a great instructor and makes the workout as much fun as any hip-hop or aerobics class I've gone to."
46684,2,Miracle supplement: Soloray Saw Palmetto and Pygeum,My husband reported a difference in 1 week. He had to get up to urinate in the middle of the night every night. He now sleeps through the night. Urine stream is now consistently strong with no residual leakage - product is a MIRACLE!
46693,2,no matter how you cut it,"everything was as I expected and the product worked great and arrived in good shape, on time, and did the job I needed it to do"
46703,2,Palm Cable and Charging Kit,This is a great way to end up with ALL of the cables and interfacing connections for synching Palm info with the computer and for charging the Palm.
46745,2,Great toy! Educate with entertainment!,"Great toy! Not often you can find a toy that is really FUN and still EDUCATIONAL. My 10 month old loves it as much as my 3 year old. And it is a great toy to have on the kitchen fridge, up and out of the way in a room that normally toys are not kept in. My baby loves playing with it while I cook and my toddler likes it so much he often packs it all up in a tupperware and takes it with him. I'm buying more of these as gifts both the kids and parents will love it! Good job Leap Frog! Thank you!"
46826,2,Great for catching STINKBUGS!,"I have had a Deluxe Gopher for years -- don't remember how or when I got it but I have had none of the problems some reviewers relate. I never fold mine so maybe that's part of my success, and have had no problems with the suction cups.This tool is now used exclusively for picking stinkbugs off of the ceiling, windows, walls, etc., and transporting them to their final resting place: the nearest toilet.For really heavy visitations, our handheld Oreck vacuum cleaner is more efficient, but otherwise the Gopher gets the bug."
46931,2,LOVE This Workout,"Quenia Ribeiro is AMAZING!!! i love this video, she really does a good job with teaching the moves to you, you get plenty of time to learn to do things. cues are great, workout is fun, good warm up, great music. There's no cool down, but that's something you can do on your own. good choreography, workout is a good length. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!"
46953,2,This is what D/s is about to me,"It's so easy to wander out into pure fantasy when writing about D&s. While i'm sure he embelished a bit for effect (what author doesn't), Preston captures so wonderfully the ecstacy that comes from releasing control and been totally dominated (even when writing from a Top's perspective). Highly recommended to the novice; it's about as real a perspective on domination and submission as you can expect in erotica."
46971,2,Best reason for Blu-Ray!,"Far and away the best show on television. Soon to be the best television series on blu-ray. If you're still looking for a reason to adopt, this is it!"
46996,2,Something for everyone,"This surprisingly neutral book compares the enormous variety of religious beliefs throughout history, with particular attention paid to Christianity. While not an in-depth text, it will serve as an introduction to critically examining the development and spread of religion.Christians should definitely read his chapter on Christianity; Mencken considers the 1611 King James Version to be one of the most beautiful books ever written.While his chapter hypothesizing the origins of religion is rather speculative, any such hypothesis is bound to be - at the very least it will pique your interest in the subject. The chapter on the variety of religions is particularly interesting, as it attempts to show how the same general ideas were molded into vastly different beliefs; in particular, the section on the various conceptions of heaven(s) and hell(s) will definitely be engrossing to anyone."
47095,2,One of the better sequels,"Sequels are often lame imitations of the original, but City Slickers 2 keeps the atmosphere and much of the chemistry of City Slickers 1. The acting is excellent, especially Jack Palance (as usual). The ""Indiana Jones"" mine ride is a bit corny, but after all, the storyline is a fantasy anyway! If you enjoyed the first one, you will like City Slickers 2. The video and sound quality on this sequel is somewhat superior to the first one."
47099,2,Nanny state totalitarianism's family tree,"The square mustached smiley face says it all. So does the open quote of Chapter 10 "". . . it is generally thought that National Socialism stands only for brutishness and terror. But this is not true. National Socialism - more broadly, fascism - also stands for an ideal or rather ideals that are persistent today under other banners: the ideal of life as art, the cult of beauty, the fetishism of courage, the dissolution of alienation in ecstatic feelings of community, the repudiation of the intellect, the family of man (under the parenthood of leaders). These ideals are vivid and moving to many people . . . because their content is a romantic ideal to which many continue to be attached and which is expressed in such diverse modes of cultural dissidence and propaganda for new forms of community as the youth/rock culture, primal therapy, anti-psychiatry, Third-World camp-following, and belief in the occult."" Susan Sontag, Fascinating Fascism, p. 358"
47144,2,Eroticism at Some of its Best,"I had watched Lake Consequence severals years ago and promised myself to purchase a copy when the priority allowed - I'm glad I did as it's one of the most erotic films I've seen - well-put-together with very good actors, interesting scene shoots, and the timing of the sexual tease was well-placed. I'd recommend this for both men and women."
47154,2,The Best!,"Since I bought this pot I have turned to it again and again. There is plenty of room for steaming. It has a nice heavy bottom so everything cooks evenly. It is a beautiful pot, easy to clean, great for almost any cooking challenge! I would highly recommend it to anyone!"
47198,2,Best leg weights ever,"These weights are the best. When you exercise they stay in place and do not unravel or slide. They were cheaper then all the rest offered and actually the better product. I went by another customer's review when I bought them and I am so glad I did. Five stars all the way,"
47260,2,Perfect for the price!,The length and width is enough for most men and women so you aren't forced to squeeze yourself onto the mat. The thickness is great and provides excellent cushioning for those that need it. Other mats can be so thin that the cushioning is close to nothing but this mat is the exception to that. Rolling of the mat does leave a little curling at one end of the matt but this is the worst I can say of this mat so it must not be that bad for the price.
47267,2,Electro Industrial classic...,"The ""Like a Prayer"" is club classic at its best. Scratchy vocals and a thumping beat give this song more life and speed than Madonna ever intended. However, do not forget the A side of this single ""On The Run."" The Starry clubbing and Turbo mixes are a great jump start to any Saturday night clubbing. The electro beats and speed of this song will get you going and your body moving. Highly recommended."
47318,2,Very 80's,"Though many of the tracks on this CD are reminiscent of the eighties, it is still a wonderful addition to any collection. Most of the tracks are remarkable, and a little less than half of them don't even contain any cheezy synthesizer. Caravan is absolutely incredible! It's possibly my new favorite vocal jazz song. I also loved Baroque Samba, Round Midnight, and the haunting, tight harmonies of Come Home. It's fascinating to watch the New York Voices progress from this eighties album to some of their newer songs. I love it."
47332,2,What a fun show!!,"These girls are fun to watch and it's nice to get a small peak into Hef's world as well. If you are a fan of Playboy, Hef, or hot blondes who truely enjoy being naked...yeah...you should own this."
47420,2,Excellent Live Set from a great American songwriter,A great set from John Hiatt backed by the always solid Guilty Men..including Elvis's current bass player Davey Faragher...Even though it's from a concert over 10 years ago...still sounds current... A great selection of classic Hiatt songs and the typically great quality video and sound...
47439,2,Demented but great,"This CD is defenitly not for kids. It's violent, and drug oriented, and hilarius at the same time. It's also much better than the ""Marshal Mathers LP"". The reason I only gave it a four stars is becuase it has a lot of negativity in it. Even though he talks about killing his wife in ""97' bonie and clide"" you can hardly take any of it seriusly. The one I can't stand is ""Still don't give a f__k"". The violence in it is outrageous. Parents beware....."
47457,2,a frozen moment....,"i bought this l.p. when it came out. i dug the prunes and i also liked a song on the radio, Gloria. on the back of this disc was the title ""gloria"" and off to the register i went with my $2.50. I was surprised and initially a little miffed that this ""Gloria"" was not like Van Morrison and Them but while listening i realized i had come across a masterpiece of psychedelia. some things loom so large in the universe that things have to move over to make room for them. this was one of those things. a guest list filled with all the current ""alterna"" rockers don't hold a candle to this. they lack the weight, the gravity, and the reality to create any thing like this. it doesn't get any more alternative. it's an original and noone else has attempted to pull it off like this and to my thinking, noone could. a frozen moment in time."
47460,2,Horses of San Simeon,"A good read for enthusiasts of early horse breeds and breeders history, as well as Calfifornia history. A good bit of bloodline informatiion on the Hearst Morgan, Arabian, Morab, and Thoroughbred programs. Also touches on the Palomino, QH and Appaloosa programs from the Hearst Ranch. Well worth my money."
47483,2,Wonderfully Kept!,As a collector of DVD TV shows I was happy to find this one DVD box set of ER season two in really nice shape. I am adding it to my collection which I plan on enjoying for years to come. Thank you!
47615,2,Exquisite Fin-de-Siecle Musique!...,"Caplet and Magnard were part of the Franco-Belgian school of late-Romantic [i.e., Wagnerian] chamber music at the Fin de Siecle. These two works are very representative of their talents and ethos.Mozart, of course, invented the Piano-Wind Quintet (his K.452); Beethoven used the same ensemble in creating his wonderful Op. 16--both in Eb.Caplet and Magnard--being Frenchmen--substituted flute for horn in their Piano-Wind Quintets.Both died prematurely as a result of hostile action: Caplet was gassed on the Western Front, and never fully recovered; Magnard shot with his rabbit-gun at some German infantry on his estate, and was killed in retaliation: members of the ""lost generation."""
47629,2,Timeless Classic :P,"I HIGHLY recommend this book to absolutely everybody. I've read Orwell's Animal Farm thrice, and I enjoyed it more and more every time. There is just SO much to get out of this book. The third time I read Animal Farm, it was for sophomore World English, and our test was made of completely random quotes from the book. We had to explain the significance of the quote as it reflects the Russian Revolution. There is so much depth to this book! The first time I read it, I saw the superficial level- story about animals, good, bad, ugly. It was great. Then, as I read it twice and then a third time, I got more out of it than I ever imagined. This is the 2nd best book that came from the 1940's (behind Aldous Huxley's Brave New World)."
47637,2,A Classic MUST read for everyone of all ages,This was one of the first book I ever read. It is a great example of how writing can be sophisticated. It is pretty obvious to everyone the satire that Orwell creates. This really makes you think about politics and how it effects everyone.
47642,2,Magnificent History of Stalinist Russia,"When it comes to fiction books I'm a bit of an opsimath. I've arrived late to this party, and only because I read a study that argued that reading fiction increases cognitive capabilities. I'm not sure if that is happening but I am very much enjoying what I'm reading. Animal Farm was a marvelous read, and Orwell is an absolutely phenomenal writer; no pretense whatsoever. I found his minimal use of adjectives refreshing. The book is thought-provoking and excellent commentary on Communist Russia. I've got several other books by Orwell on my reading list, and I look forward to them with great anticipation. The famed Christopher Hitchens said there are very few authors whose collected works should find themselves on our selves, Orwell is one of those authors."
47676,2,Underrated,I have only been a fan of Rhapsody for a few years now and Only have heard Symphony of Enchanted lands 2 and Power of the Dragonflame. I see so many reviews stating on how this band isn't the same..sound totally diff? Well judging by the 2 albums I own..This one is just as good and in a diff way. I'm not an old school fanboy who likes nothing but old rhapsody So I can't say how this is compared to the first 3 and 1 e.p But as a music lover and Metalhead...This album is good.
47730,2,*N SYNC 'No Strings Attatched',"This album is the best of their work! Each song is packed with high energy and the ballads are well writen and perfectly sung. They might not be puppets on a string, but they are sweethearts when singing 'This I Promise You'.Oh, by the way, if somebody's tearin' up our heart, there's always this emotion filled hit single 'Bye Bye Bye'!"
47748,2,WOW!,"wow!is the only word that can describe the cd. i am listening to it now its slammin the vocals are da bombiest.its totally different from there first album it has party music on it and the ballads are breath taking.all i can say its the best its better than backstreet boy's cd milennium.they sound so different this cd takes them out of the ""boy band"" category.lisa left eyes lopes from tlc raps in it that just adds to the experience of buying the cd. all i can say is its""THE BEST CD OF THE MILLENIUM""the cd in slammin if you don't have it you should buy it you won't regret it.enjoy everyone!"
47769,2,A masterpiece!,"This is so great that it should be considered holy and is very much so for myself. The entire album is completely professional down to the beautiful cover art. I can't do much justice in writing about this other than if you like blues, hip-hop, jazz, avant garde, african rhythms, soul or better put music in general then this is for you. The title says it all and backs it up with originality and legitimacy that has rarely been surpassed. Simply put,this is top notch beauty regardless of genre."
47770,2,husband loves it,My husband asked me to get this for him while he was deployed. He was glad to get it and it was exactly what he was expecting. Nice size. Not too big and not too small. He has never had a problem with camelbak products.
47823,2,Review of Wizard's Convention 2,"Good songs by great performers. A nice collection of songs by all-time stars such as Mike d'Abo, Chris Farlowe, Tony Ashton, John Lawton or Denny Laine. Not forgetting Eddie Hardim himself"
47829,2,Vietnam for the whole family!,"Saigon prostitutes, heroin addiction, suicide, mowing down farmers with bullets, thousands of bags full of corpses being shipped back to the US, thousands of wounded men coming back crippled, yes the glory of Vietnam lives on in this wonderful album!! Let it be known although you may have lost a family member or loved one, they died so many great Hollywood films could be made about the conflict in the 80s! YAY FOR THE USA!"
47831,2,Great Album!,"I really like this WP album. It's probably my favorite one, and as a fairly new WP fan, I urge new WP fans to get this one."
47863,2,Perpetually Relevant,I found this book used. It is the best find I've made in years. The chapter on Good and Evil is incredibly compelling in our age of boundless evil. The chapter on youth is pitch perfect even 40 years after it was written.
47914,2,Best Value,"This is a great scale. My wife and I are dieting and weighing out portion sizes is an important part of our routine. This scale is well made, a convenient size and has the removable tray/cup which makes for easy cleaning. Well worth the (small) investment."
48014,2,"Selima, the Dark Angel","With breathtaking cinematography and lush backdrops, the Sleeping Dictionary is a movie for romantics and kick ... Dark Angel fans alike. Jessica Alba's facial expressions speak for themselves alone, but when she opens her mouth it's like Malaysia meets LA ghetto street talk. Hugh Dancy is absolutely yummy with his school boy turned lover boy attitude. I would like to watch ""Black Hawk Down"" again just to see Dancy in another role. The two have excellent chemistry together and it's hard to take your eyes off of them. I highly recommend this movie to anyone who needs a ""love conquers all"" night. Some extra ""on the scenes"" footage would have been great due to the fact that the movie was shot in Malaysia. Rent it, watch it, enjoy it. ..."
48020,2,"Simply, a great product!","Solid as a tank and resistant to any kind of heat, these things are great.For re-heating anything from spareribs to chili to chicken and rice,making relatively small amounts of soup/chili/stew (serving 1 or 2);Use in oven or micro-wave, easy washing, and easy nesting/storage for multiple dishes (invert lid).This casserole dish may represent old technology (Pyrex), but it sure is still viable today.I prefer it to the opaque white ones so popular these days.More durable to, IMO.The dishes are strong and generally hold up under anything exceptvery hard drops onto hard surfaces or equally hard collisions.You've really got to work hard to break these things.Pyrex just works for me.I am going to look for other sizes of this item.I would like to think that a whole line of these would be available,from 2-quart up to deep, 10 or even 12-quart sizes, of these super-useful dishes.At least, that's the way it should be."
48131,2,"Good collection but I wish it was 81-98,","As far as I know, there's not a video collection to go along with the 81-85 CD. For the reviewer who was complaining about the ""quality"" of the early videos, those are all from the Music for the Masses era, and were filmed in grainy black and white on purpose (I assume). That's what the videos look like. That's what they looked like in 1987. All in all, though, great collection of DM's videos. Especially the ones that weren't released in the states like Home and Little 15."
48133,2,Meg,I ordered this dvd on a Monday evening and received it on Wednesday! It was super speedy service and the description was the same as the product. Thanks.
48149,2,L'Elisir d'Amore,"A delight from beginning to end! Anna Netrebko and Rolando Villazon have great chemistry. They both seem to love the fun of it all. All the characters are well cast. The Donizetti music alone is such fun all by itself, but adding the opera itself makes it magical. I can't imagine anyone who enjoys light opera not loving this."
48198,2,Read it,"I'm not big on a 1-10 scale so the 10 you see is really a no answer. I'm only writing because I think this book, though clumsy at times, is widely misunderstood. If you have been a fan, read it. It is the best of the last three--more heartfelt than Leviathan, for example. The old Auster themes of boyhood and fatherhood are dealt with beautifully, and the fact that its a retelling from an insiders point of view darkens the entire novel. I think Auster really let the characters do what they wanted to do...and it has a lovely, strong ending. -D.Ziva"
48234,2,American Cheese,"When I received the nicely packaged and adequately extra-ed DVD's of Wonder Woman Season 1, I played each and every episode the first night, of course, and came to the conclusion that, although Lynda Carter is not quite the thespian I remember her as, she still wears that costume better than anyone in the universe could have at that time. It doesn't matter that the plots are poor and the characters are one dimensional at best (they are comic book characters after all), Ms. Carter is beautiful and I give her props for not only looking the part but playing the part with just the right amount of naivite and toughness.P.S. Did Mel Brooks have a hand in some of these eps? Just got to wonder."
48236,2,love huggies!!!!,"I have two kids and I've never found a better diaper than huggie brand diapers. Don't like pampers or any other brand and believ me I've tried them all. Of course I've learned over the years that it depends on your baby. Believe it or not diapers are different with each baby!!! But for me and my babies its huggies, we love the stretchy sides that no other diaper seems to have. Pampers sides always seemed to tear for some reason and the material was not soft they even gave my first baby diaper rashes form the powder they use to put in their diapers. SO again we prefer huggies but thats just us."
48243,2,Excellent beyond words!,My family love this series because it finally shows Niles and Daphne as a couple. That was what we have been waiting for the longest time! We can't wait for the next series to be out!
48285,2,More than the Movie,"As much as I enjoy watching old Ginger Rogers movies, it always saddens me that the film version of ""Kitty Foyle"" has so overshadowed Morley's novel.Written in the stream-of-consciousness style, ""Kitty Foyle"" is both a coming-of-age novel and a novelistic ""study"" of the white collar career girl of the 1930s. Kitty is from Philadelphia, but spends her high school years in a small town in Illinois, and ultimately ends up working [in the cosmetic industry] in New York City. Morley is excellent at presenting these various mileu unjudgmentally [he leaves that for the reader] but vividly and accurately. He is also excellent at creating ""real"" characters, who face moral dilemmas and who are changed because of their decisions. It is an entertaining and delightful read, as well as being a thoughtful read."
48357,2,A Winner Again,"Lee Child never disapoints. Jack Reacher again comes through with all the grit and strength he has shown in all his other novels. I have come to find even though he has a Rambo style about him, he works with a good investigative mind. I sincerly recommend this book. I have now read all of them and there is not one I wouldn't highly applaud."
48402,2,"No complaints, isn't that nice","Well, I'm not gonna annoy you with what you already know. Basically it's a basic looking phone with a convient plan. What I like best about this unit is the price. You get all the pay as you go features and extras without a monthly contract....isn't that what really counts?By Cathy_luvs_dd a Virgin Mobile Insider"
48416,2,First 150 Pages,"Honestly, I approached this book with the same view as everyone else.. as in ""what's wrong with the author?"" This was after I skimmed the table of contents. But then, giving it somewhat of a chance, I read the prologue. And some laws. Honestly, these aren't as unethical as people are making them out to be on here. I was nervous myself, but luckily I got a chance to preview the book. For example, ""using enemies"" simply refers to how giving enemies a chance to redeem themselves will make them want to impress you more than friends. And telling less than you know is simply not being overbearing. And not outshining the master is not ""competing"" with your boss or superiors.Honestly, I've only read 150 pages so far, but I'd give this book a chance. Maybe it's not for you, but it's quite interesting nonetheless."
48613,2,A Blast from my Past,"I was sure I was the only person who still remembered this series, but I'm pleased to see I was wrong. The stories while sometimes a bit simplistic as much of television was then, still offer an interesting mixture of comedy, drama, and romance with a good dose of history thrown in. The only thing that could have made it better was if they had included commentaries from some of the actors, or perhaps some of Seattle's real history to compare the series to. Overall though, I have throughly enjoyed watching the entire set. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoyed the series when it originally aired, especially those who used to have Bobby Sherman's pictures all over their walls like I did."
48642,2,"No regrets thats my motto, that and everybody wang chung tonight","Out Cold is a one of my favorite movies to come out. My friend first introduced this movie to me and now I have watch it at least once a month if not more and I don't why I do it. My favorite scene in the movie is the Hot Tub scene with Luke loving it (tub) strong like, very funny. I am not going to explain the story so that is out the window. I recommend watching it and at first when I seen the dvd cover I did not think I would like but I got hooked right away so watch the movie and if you don't like then you wasted 90 minutes of your life (HAHAHAHA!) but I think you will like it."
48662,2,Cats like it,"I have twin tiger cats and one of them has a hairball problem. I think cat lax helps, so I give it to them both occasionally, about a 1/4"" dab from my finger, then another dab I put on a front paw. It's funny watching them lick their paws, and has become a ritual, so that they lift their paws and start licking them even before I've put the cat lax on them.This brand is tastier to them than other laxative products, the price from this vendor is the best and it ships quick."
48686,2,"Old classic,New Generation",I loved this film even now over 25 yrs later and recommend it to everyone with or without kids - its just a lot of fun. I even look forward to buying fox and the hound 2 for the adventures to continue.
48747,2,Only the Best Seller and Product!,"This is the best makeup around, especially for people with problem skin because it's all naturaul. Have tried many brands of foundation, only to return to this. Excellence! I will keep buying. The Seller Is Fab too!"
48759,2,"Easy to use, Quick and looks good!","At first I thought this make-up accentuated the fine lines in my over 50 face. But then I used a primer (not theirs), which is essential for any foundation, and it looked really good. iI gave it 4 stars because airbrushed makeup, which does take longer, looks a tad better."
48847,2,sooo pretty,"I bought two sets - they're perfect as it's just the bowls, salad plates and dinner plates so I'm not stuck with a bunch of cups and saucers that never get used! the design is sooo pretty - i love that the salad plate has the design over it completely while the bowl and just one little design and the dinner plate just around the edge."
48848,2,Correlle is elegant,"We bought this set at the manufacturer store for $49.99. It's sturdy, lightweight, and durable.The design is simple and elegant."
48857,2,IT'S AWESOME!,I THINK THIS IS AN AWESOME ALBUM! IT'S FUN TO HAVE CRUISING IN YOUR CAR OR JUST DANCING TO IT! I RECCOMEND THAT ALL THE PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT LIKE TO MOVE AND GROOVE GET THIS ALBUM!
48883,2,nice show,"I had seen this before, and I wanted to give my children a chance to see it. They loved it. A fun, feel-good movie."
48929,2,A Good Family Film,"Not as good as some Disney films I have seen, but overall a good storyline and is suitable for all ages. I would recommend this film to anyone who celebrates Christmas and especially those with children.Even my husband said, ""that was a neat story !""after we watched it. That in and of itself is a good recommendation!"
48935,2,Wildly Entertaining,"I could watch this Sing-A-Long song over and over. I love to sing and dance, even though I'm not too good either. One of the Best Disney Sing-A-Longs they ever did; though I wish they could have added the song Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah instead of that Stanly Dinosaur round-up, but oh well.I reccomend this DVD to anyone who loves Home on the Range and all the other Disney Sing-A-Longs."
48968,2,A very sad and terrifying movie.,"If you are emotional or easily depressed this movie is not for you. It pulls on every emotional heartstring and sometimes I am not sure it wasn't done as a cheap way of getting a reaction. The slaughter of the innocents with some dystopian touches. Whatever, it does not make a difference, this movie is heartbreaking. The scene where they are in the restaurant with the other couple who had heard a rumor, and the reaction of the woman after speaking to the three main characters is tragic. If we truly live in such a world where these kinds of values are paramount, and there is so little regard for life and such selfishness and greed, this world has no hope. Given the history of the 20th century, this movie might be saying that we may be living in that world already. That is the terrifying part."
49077,2,fast and pretty,"I ordered the silver one Wed. and recieved it Fri.There is a lot to read, you can't idiot your way through, but it does a lot so I don't mind. Besides, it is really pretty and much more compact than I thought it would be. I am a petite gal who never works out and I was able to lift it. I would have liked more pictures in the instruction manual. I used my rack wrong the first time."
49104,2,I love my Shave Pro Cordless Shaver,"My 1st Shave Pro Cordless Shaver failed due to my fault not reading the instructions and letting it be overcharged. It should not be charged more than 2 hours max! It's so cheap, I bought a 2nd one right away and it is even better than the 1st one. Very quite and powerful! I am very happy with its performance and price! The only con is that it must be charged before shaving. Using a cord will not work like some other cordless shavers such as Braun Series Men's Shaver, which I also happen to own as a backup. Great price! Great performance!"
49108,2,Weird but great,"This book looks more like a comic book, which took me aback at first. But it's loaded with all the stuff you need to know in an easy to read format. Nothing lightweight about it."
49130,2,My favorite bra - more colors please!,"I've had this bra for a few months and it's become my favorite. It's sturdy, pretty and comfortable; usually I can't wait to drag my bra off when I get home, but I actually forget that I'm wearing this sometimes, and that's the best endorsement for a bra, imo.I wish they had it in more colors, though. I'd buy one of each!"
49142,2,Surprisingly effective!,"Don't let the silly clip-art fool you into thinking that this book is antiquated or unhelpful! Yes, there will be clip-art, but ultimately this book is extraordinary and will get you thinking about your motives and attitudes in a way only a therapist can. You really will become motivated in just 10 days, and it is well worth the money."
49174,2,"Cabo, Great for what it is. But what you are not told",The Cabo has a design flaw in its back cover. This is why the stereo often malfunctions and no sound is heard out of one speaker. To fix this problem is not that hard if you know how to solder or know someone who does. Here is all you have to do. Remove the back cover which my void your warranty but they'll probably just give you another one with this problem. It will break sooner or later hence design flaw. Under the belt clip pin holder(not the screw holder) you will find a chip Apprx 2mm x4mm. This chip gets broken free. You must solder it back on using a pen type soldering iron NOT A GUN. Use liquid type solder a drop approx 1/4 mm. After soldering (carful not to overheat 1-2 second max.)you must modify the cover. A sliver of plastic approx 3mm thick must be cut from the pin molding at the top (volume control end)it should look like a D sideways when your done. reassemble the cover and your done.
49208,2,Sleek and Stylish,"I like the fact that it is slimmer than the previous version. Not to mention, it matches my platinum gamecube! Awesome"
49214,2,So Relaxing,"This has been one of my favorite CD's for years, and I was sorry to lose my copy. The new recording is a little less subtle than the original, but it is still lovely."
49256,2,Great Knife,Great knife for every purpose I have needed. It is sharp and I love the corkscrew to open the picnic wine.
49275,2,Eminem has done it again!!!,"Great CD, Eminem is trully back with this great hip-hop CD; would recomend to everyone!!"
49283,2,Wonderful,I would describe this book as self-help. It was sent to me by my cousin who is a missionary in Mexico. I had made some life changes that were truly making me stressful. She thought this would be a good book for me. She was so right. The basic theme was letting the Lord help you with your problems. It also gives lessons to do after every chapter if one chooses to do them. I recommend it highly.
49309,2,Affirmation is a must buy CD,"This album is truly amazing, this is a must buy album, their songs are great....I LOVE ""CRUSH AND BURN"", .whenever i feeling sad or down, i just listen to this song....it bright up my day! Other songs on the album are also great......I LOVE SAVAGE GARDEN Thanks guys for making a two great albums... i listen to your songs over and over again....it's great!"
49341,2,a Make you Think movie,"Very entertaining, makes you think of what would happen in these kids [people] shoes in the situation they are in, scary at parts and lots of entertainment - keeps you on the edge of your seat."
49407,2,This is My Favorite Toy !,My mother-in-law bought this for my 4-year-old on his 5th birthday. He is 6 now and it is still one of his favorite toys! We have liked it so much that we bought another one for my 3 year old. We keep them both in the car along with a plastic box full of our Leap books and cartridges. This toy makes driving around or waiting in teh doctor's office fun. I would recommend it to anyone!!!!!
49437,2,"What do you mean ""aimed for kids""?","This game is rated T for TEEN. NOT KIDS! If it were for little kids, they cut off all them explosions. Anyway, this game is great. Yeah sure, the story kinda sucks and is unoriginal, but the controls, customization, and characters are great (including Marcia. Her legs are nice!)"
49453,2,Little labels--Big dreams,This little book tells some big stories about a time before the major corporations destroyed the music. It is the history of heros and tyrants of some of the most important independent record companies ever. Without them recorded music would have never been the same. Some of the stories are a little dry but others are brillant. A good read for anyone interested in the history of records and modern music
49516,2,Great Value,The Koss SB-45 Communication Stereophones proved to be a great bargin for me. I listen to lectures and language DVDs and this set proves to be exactly what I need. Since I am not a music fan I can't go there. This is an Amazon winner.
49517,2,"Ok, but wouldn't buy again","These are just OK. My last headphones had a sound and mic control on the cord, but these don't. Also, the plugs on the end are not color coordinated like other products to distinguish between mic and speakers. Usually the mic color is pink like the pink outlet on the back of my CPU. The colors on the ends of these headphones are gray (usually pink) for mic and black for headphones (usually green). Not a big deal, but when there is low lighting, it's difficult to see those little icons on the plugs.Sound is not as good as my last headphones no matter what I do in the settings."
49541,2,it is an almost acceptable copy of the original game.,"It is a good game, it has good graphs and colors, but it lacks landscapes almost and it does not have variety of tracks that one can choose. But it has all icons of the original game and new aggregates. It has a descent and good handling of car in the game, I talk about to that one handles the controls well. the effect of rumble pack is very good. Only the bad thing is that one can't run over and carve up real people and see much red blood by all sides, and aslo to see parts of human bodies leave the screen throughout. But it is good game in any case."
49646,2,Common still has lyrics....dude is on some other though..??,"Common has always been a hip hop purest. There is only a hand full of MC's that can rhyme the way he does. ""Electric Circus"" is an experiment for the talented MC. I remember seing the video ""Come Close"" on BET a few weeks ago and I was like d#mn...that's hip hop right there. Kinda like A Tribe called Quest did ""Bonita"" back in the early 90's. This CD is filled with hip hop, rock-n-roll, and jazz melodies. For true Common fans this will sit well but for the average head....it might seem a little weird.."
49647,2,Expand Your Common Sense,"After I saw the video to Come Close I ran out and bought the CD, popped it in my changer and haven't stopped listening to it since. Common's eclectic collage of 70's funk, soul, rock, jazz swing and hip hop is brillant. Truely a refreshing change in an industry dominated by bling-bling, booty shakin' women, and mind numbingly vapid lyrics. For those of you who want to be enlightened on love, human issues and music experimentation use your ""common sense"" and BUY THIS CD! Peace."
49743,2,One of the best Webkinz,"I gave this a high educational rating because of the online benefits, but out of all the Webkinz we have bought this is definitely the cutest. It has cotton candy like coloring with very soft fur and tinsel like additions to the mane and tail. We like it both online and as a stuffed animal.My 2 yr old granddaughter is a pony fan and loves this also."
49765,2,A Truly Enjoyable Masterpiece,"High Praise must be given to this film. The greatly intwined plot deserves much credit and the actors played their roles quite superbly. The woven plot alone makes this movie slow at first, but once you start to figure out how the characters are connected to one and all, it triumphs. From the wiz kid to the old man to the cop to everyone and back again....what a ride. I don't wan't to ruin it for anybody but just remember the word FROGS. You may now applaud."
49816,2,Fun book to bring on vacation,"This is a must bring when you go on vacation and just need some time to chill at the beach or at the end of a busy day, in between day and evening plans. If you happen to be interviewing in the technical fields you may run across interviewers that ask brain teasers. You'll find many of those problems in this book. For technical interviewing this makes a good study guide. I have collected quite a few puzzle books and was never fully satisfied with any of them until I heard about the authoer and decided to pick up one his books. The puzzles are all differnt from each other, ranging from word problems to geometry problems.The solutions given are very complete and actually take up the largest emphasis."
49823,2,Another amazing addition to indie,"Wow. I can't believe how good these guys are. I first found them when i was browsing purevolume.com and i was immediatly hooked. They're a perfect blend of indie/emo/ and post hardcore. They reminded me of Sparta a little and i love sparta so i naturally liked these guys. The lyrics are astounding and the music is anthemic, catchy, and creative. These guys truly understand music and make it happen to the fullest extent. A must buy!"
49831,2,Excellent!!!!!,"I am very happy with my purchase and it's condition when I received it. I have been wishing that Clinique would put the perfume back out, but they tell me it was only a limited-time sort of thing. I was very pleased to find it online and will be sure to purchase it from here again!"
49860,2,good read,"Good read, explains alot. Very helpful for the up and coming manager to understand psychology of inquiring minds and some of the borderline people we meet in business."
49879,2,Beam up for this ENTERPRISE,"William Shatner has done the ultimate parody of himself in Free Enterprise. The script takes satire to the max as Shatner plays an actor name William Shatner. He also sends up Star Trek and SF conventionsPre Will & Grace Eric McCormick and Rafer Weigel play two best friends who look up to Shatner as a mentor...and they find he is a real personFor those fans of the Star Trek genre, this is almost as funny as Clerksgo get this one!Bennet Pomerantz AUDIOWORLD"
49932,2,Best of the Vampire Chronicles!,"Anne's telling of the creation of vampires is truely unique and imaginative. A must for anyone who loves mystery, suspense and fantasy. The cast of characters that Anne creates is rather large, but in the end, all the characters come together in an amazing ending. Anne Rice has truely out done herself with this chapter in the chronicles. A definate must read!"
49957,2,Great discovery,"I have all three Cds from this band. i would describe them as a hybrid between Coldplay and U2, although i'm no music critic.The only thing that makes me wander about Boxer Rebellion is WHY aren't they more famous.Great band. Great CD.Buy the other two also."
49963,2,CNN Cold War DVD,"I received the DVD series this afternoon and here is what I found:Sufficient container with six (6) DVD's containing 24 episodesOnline access to ""Fixster"" so one could view series via a ""cloud"" on iPad, iPhone, laptop (it works).I viewed the first episode and the last to view them and they seem to be mirror images of the original VHS series.I also checked out the episodes in question (Soldiers of God) and everything was there. I did not notice any editing from the original series.Conclusion. If you teach world Civ & the Cold War get this series. Far cheaper than the original VHS series. The content works well for California socialscience grade 10 world civilization standards. I have created questions for each of the episodes for use in the classroom and is far more thorough thanwhat the Pearson text(my district uses) offers. Get it. If nothing else it is a tax write-off. Get it before someone pulls it from Amazon.Regards,"
49979,2,i bury the dead,this movie to me isnt not a five star butt with famous actor it goes from three to four other wise its really not that great it does have unique story and some moments of trying to figure it out butt it lacks something so its a four. any lower i think your missing some marbles in your brain
50032,2,Cute and creative,"This whole concept is refreshing--I always became bored by assigning cheesy writing prompts for my students like ""Describe your favorite day"" or ""What does a hero mean to you?"" Blech. I love the prompts in ""Unjournaling"" because they invite participation in truly creative thinking, not just regurgitation of what they think I want to hear. Plus, lots of the prompts connect to lessons (alliteration, active/passive voice, etc). I've started using this in my classroom and my students love them!"
50034,2,Great Service and Product,Product received before stated delivery. Easy to install with the short directions.Working just a good as new. Wonder why I had to get my head hit by trunk lid so manytimes before I fixed it.
50042,2,Simply Brilliant,"As a self proclaimed Life of Agony junkie I have to say that I eagerly awaited this album..and I wasn't disappointed. Albeit lighter, not as thick and thrashy as River Runs Red and Ugly, this shows that LOA has talent. A must for all fans. ""Weeds"" has to be the most energizing song I have ever heard."
50116,2,"A practical and compassionate ""must read"" book.","I have spoken with many family members of homosexuals, and regardless of how accepting, loving, or even liberal they may be, the initial announcement, ""I'm gay"" is one that can knock you to your knees. I have also heard Anita Worthen speak several times, and her deep love and compassion for her son and for homosexuals in general is so evident. From her heart she writes this practical and compassionate book that is a ""must"" for any parent reeling from the news that their son or daughter is gay. Discovering this book is often the very first time that a parent or a family member discovers that they are not alone, that others have been there too, and that what they are feeling is normal. Especially helpful are the chapters on the grief cycle-adapted for the family member, and on how to relinquish your loved one and ""let go."""
50132,2,Tripwire,"I have read several of Lee's books. He has a very good formula, and I find his style and content very entertaining. I believe it is a shame that Tom Cruise was cast as Jack in the new movie entitled Jack Reacher. Lee has gone to great effort to build the character as a large, muscular man who is not partucularly physically attractive, but very fit, and intelligent. Tom Cruise simply does not sell as this character. I think the casting director of the movie should be fired."
50146,2,Who would of thought!,Nora does it again she manages to captivate the reader. I'm sure everyone thought the book was stuck to my glasses. If you like 'who done its' pick this one.
50195,2,easy and informative,"i definitely reccomend this for a beginning programmer in high school. adults will probably find it to be too simple (i nearly finished it in a month, and i'm in high school).EDIT: pascal is a dead language. for a simple but useful language, try Delphi (based on pascl) or Visual Basic."
50198,2,in your face nazis,This band is saying what they believe and love they're insane matando gueros is just a great title name english is killing whites.Not racist just saying it's in you're face nazi punks haha.This to me is their most brutal record ever get it now not a big fan of them but it's brutal!NAPALM DEATH said it best F*CK OFF NAZI PUNKS!!!!!
50252,2,better than I expected,"When you read the reviews of other people, there is no doubt that you will get the impression that this might be the best album you could ever have, and it probably is. When I went to the record store, I originally wanted to buy ""the bends"", because of the title track, that was actually the song that introduced me to radiohead, I knew that songs like ""high and dry"", ""street spirit"" and ""fake plastic trees"" were amazing too but when I got to the record store they only had ""OK computer"", It definitely turned out for the best, because this CD is amazing, I actually tried to not like it but the songs grew on me, my personal favorites are ""no surprises"", ""lucky"" and ""let down"" and the song that made me say ""I like radiohead!""(which not everyone could easily say because of the fear of being pretentious)has to be ""airbag""."
50258,2,Best album of the 90's,"I know everyone will say Ten, Nevermind, or Murmor was a better album, but OK Computer is definitely the best. Ok Computer is a saga of great music in which you have to listen in its entirety. It is a great concept album where each song is different but yet the same. Rather than a whole cd of singles, OK Computer tells its own story. Your mood goes up and down from a hard paranoid android to a softer Subterranean Homesick Alien. When I listen to OK Computer I never change the tracks, the album tells a story and you don't want to miss a chapter. That's what makes OK Computer the best album of the 90's,"
50321,2,formula for secret sauce,"If you are only eating Pietro soy sauce dressing on tossed salads, you are really missing out. Set your mind free and use it in other dishes, for example:- Mix Pietro with mayonnaise (preferably Japanese Kewpie mayo that comes in a squishy tube and is a fabulous condiment by itself) and a dash of soy sauce to make a dipping sauce for blanched vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus, green beans, etc.- Boil up some pasta and shake on Pietro with some red pepper flakes, freshly chopped parsley and some grated parmesan reggiano cheese.Serve dishes like this to people without telling them you used a bottled dressing, and they will be amazed. You can thank me later."
50435,2,"Great read, but....","First, I have to say that I found this book difficult to put down. I have devoured everything by my favorite mystery writers (Grafton, James, George, McGown, etc.) and so was thrilled to find a new and untapped ""supply.""But while it's a good read, this book is full of eye-rollers. Clare spouts the most inane liberal platitudes and seems to confuse mouthy, immature displays of righteous indignation with good moral choices. Really, did she learn nothing in seminary? Secondly, this book is rife with Silly White People Stereotypes (namely, most of the members of Clare's Episcopalian congregation.) There's actually a character named Sterling Sumner. Puhlllease. This is sitcom-level stuff.Despite these complaints, this series still appeals. Which proves my theory that mysteries aren't necessarily great literature, they are namely sleep aids."
50453,2,high quality,I received this item in a timely way. The packaging was very good and the product worked as expected. I was very happy with the seller
50480,2,Funky Christian Music,"Fred Hammond gained my appeal when he was with Commissioned. I love Christian music that is soulful with a strong message that honors, glorifies and praises Jesus Christ. This CD does just that. The instrumentation is top notch and catches your attention first, then on the second and subsequent listens, you hear strong messages of salvation, redemption, peace and more. I listened to 30 second samples of some of the songs and read reviews to help decide if I wanted to purchase this CD. The samples do no justice to how beautiful the songs really are and the quality of the lyrics. You really have to trust that Fred is a true artist, musician and God-filled man. The CD contains quality, uplifting, soulful and peaceful music. You will find at least 4 to 5 top-notch songs here. Thank you, Fred for your inspiration and contribution to great Christian music!"
50487,2,Dub Nation Please Rise,With this CD you will get one of the greatest dub experiences ever. Just pop this into your cd player and let it carry you away to a mixture of a light drum n bass..with some ambience feel to it..and definitely the bass pounding in your ear. Which does actually lives up to it's title. Dub n bass. Dub nation please rise and clap for this fine album. If you like dub or wish to get to know it better..this is definitely the cd to start by or a must have.
50519,2,Excellent!,"Not unlike Deep Forest,Enigma etc...with a specific ""Irish"" bent...Very Refreshing...We'll be hearing more from Jimmy Smyth,judging by this offering..."
50594,2,not for concealment!,"Holy huge! If you bought the ipod because of its small size and are now considering this item, yer nuts. If you are looking for something to make your significant investment all but bulletproof, look no further. i have already dropped and gotten mine wet and the protection factor is phenominal. I have also already been laughed at by the neighbors for having a small laptop strapped to my waist. Size aside, the only other comlaint I might have is that it is still easy to scratch the view area of the otterbox, but the ipod screen is still protected, maybe some of those peel away screen savers would be a good investment?"
50641,2,Great Product,"This Bodum electic kettle does exactly as it is advertised to do. I have owned several other water kettles and I have been disappointed in the longevity. The Bodum has two great features, 1) the kettle has an automatic off switch so when the water boils it turns itself off (just keep the black lid completely down!). This is important to me as I lost my sense of smell and I like the security of the Bodum turning itself off in the event I forget that I turned it on. 2) The bottom of the kettle remains cool so that it does not scorch the counter top when it is not placed back on its holder."
50650,2,gets the job done,"Does what it says for a great price, i have over 800 pics on my phone, plus music, plus apps, etc, so no sayin how much it actually holds, but i love it"
50772,2,i like it,"I spent a lot of time looking at different lcd tv models in the stores. The challenge, as always, was trying to find one in my price range that met my requirements. I was originally looking for a good quality, widescreen, HD-ready, lcd tv for around $1000. I soon found that it was hard to find a good widescreen below $1000. I looked at the off-brand models from Syntax and Apex and I just wasn't impressed with the picture quality. The brands that offered the best picture quality (at least to my untrained eyes) were Sharp, Sony, and this Samsung (some of the other Samsungs didn't look as good though). I am really happy with the picture quality and features of this model. It was easy to setup. I have never used component video inputs before now and it really makes a big difference. My only wish is that I could have gotten one with a larger screen."
50775,2,Log cabins and watermelon seeds,"Teri Christopherson owns up to very eclectic tastes that ""change with my mood,"" and this book reflects that variety. What unifies it is a very definite bent toward traditional quilt designs and a love of rich, warm color combinations. The thirty patterns presented in this book are selected from the designs of the Black Mountain Quilts pattern company, and range from the whimsical to the very elegant and subtle. Although traditional, these quilts display lots of new twists, such as the ""Watermelon Picnic"" quilt, which uses log cabin blocks to depict watermelon slices. The photography is superb, the instructions meticulous, and patterns include table runners, pillows, and tree decorations as well as quilts. Both appliqué and pieced techniques are featured."
50795,2,A very chilling account of terror,I read this book almost 11 years ago and I can still remember almost all of the events that happened. The Zodiac has to be one of the most cunning and elusive serial killers since Jack the Ripper. They both (Zodiac and Jack) have the destinction of never being caught. The author of the book does a fantastic job of telling the tale with chilling clarity that is not often found in true crime tales anymore. The background of the events from 1966 (when the Zodiac first started killing) up to the late 1960's/early 1970's puts the reader almost into the investigators shoes of trying to catch this elusive and very intelligent killer. This is a definite MUST read to any fan of true crime or mystery readers. Kudo's to the author.
50898,2,A Star Wars Must Have,This book shows everything you ever wanted to know about the Star Wars saga. It's an amazing artistic view of the locations with intricately drawn 3-D maps as well as colorful pictures. It adds reality to what you see on the screen. I highly recommend this authoritative book to be a key part of your Star Wars library.
50916,2,Mystery Men,"Segev's book gives insight into the men of the Nazi party who before this weren't really that researched. Most of the Nazi concentration camp men don't have huge Bio's to read on so it's a interesting read if you are a World War II buff who likes specific topics of choice such as this. My initital motivation was to read up on Amon Goeth, the imfamous Schindler List Protagonist. This was pretty much the only book I could find with any info at all on him. It's a good, but short read."
50968,2,This is great!,"I asked my mother to get me one of these for Christmas because my jewelry was filthy and using the little jar of cleaner with the brush just wasn't cutting it. Wow, was I impressed. We immediately opened it and starting cleaning any jewelry we could find. I am truly pleased with this product and would recommend it. It's simple to use and easy to clean up. Since my jewelry hadn't been cleaned well for a long time, I added some windex to the water for the first cleaning. I was told that I could use an amonia based product on gold and diamonds by a jewelry store owner."
50975,2,Larger than I expected.,"Seems to be well constructed, however, it is larger than I expected, guess I misjudged the ""1 qt. size"". I have had similar slightly smaller hand held paint pails that were more in the 2/3 to 3/4 qt size and they were much handier than this one. Still, it is functional and very well made."
51025,2,Blast form the past,"I first read this book when I was 9 years old an 40 years later, it still intrigued and delighted me."
51109,2,The only book you will need for Kauai,It seems that critics do not like this book because it gives up too much information. Not really a criticism as far as I am concerned! This is the best information available without going there yourself. Much more detailed than any guide could be that covers all the islands. Witty writing makes it easy to read - not dry like many guides.
51134,2,Hildegard of Bingen's Spiritual Remedies,"Hildegard of Bingen's Spiritual Remedies is an excellent book which explains the health of our physical and spiritual life and its healing in very practical and clear terms. It is a real must for those who care for their health and strive to do so with natural means effectively and if necessary complemented by medial means. I purchased it from Amazon who have very many good books relating to Hildegard of Bingen.John Evans, Australia"
51174,2,Enjoyed every minute of it!,"I read this book many years ago, and I loved it. I took it back a while back, and loved it even more. Now I read it again recently, and still find it most enjoyable. A book about Merlin, brilliant!Highly recommended."
51203,2,One of the best concert performers ever!,"To those of you who have yet to see Stevie Wonder in concert, I implore you to go to one, when you have the chance. In case you don't, then this is the next best thing. Most of his hits are in the DVD. Of course, not all of them are. But then again, with the multitude of hits he has, you can't expect him to sing all of them in a 2-hr. concert. Rest assured, though, at least 2 of your top 3 Stevie Wonder songs will be here."
51208,2,Fascinating to listen to,"This is a set of 4 CD's covering the Hobbit, Lord of the Rings, Adventures of Tom Bombadil, and Silmarillian. The first two are snippets read by JRR Tolkein and the others are snippets of the Silmarilian. The collection goes together well, preserving the known recordings of JRR, and adding new ones by his son.These snippets make the character of Tolkein come alive in a way that merely reading the dead, motionless words on the page do not. His rendition of Gollum is amusing, light, and lively. His rendition of some of his other poetry (for example The Mewlips and The Hoard) is worth listening to more than the poems are worth reading.This is essential to the collection of any Tolkein fan. Highly recommended."
51277,2,a very entertaining musical,"This is the first Shakira dvd that I've watched. It was very enjoyable and is suitable for all ages. The first half of the dvd was better than the second half, but for her fans the bonus featurette will more than make up for that.I thoroughly enjoyed her singing."
51318,2,Accurate and Concise. Rely on it before I Buy. Collector,When I need to know Manufacture dates and model differences and values I rely on this guide. Covers rare/common and hard to price American and European models. Has a cross Reference for makers and serial # made on dates. Shows the listing of model variations/dates/serial # runs in a series of gun. All one needs is the Gun in hand or complete list of features to determine Model/Type & Era. Each listing has the wording on the barrel of each model it covers to determine the type. No guide can be complete end of story. This gude takes you where you need to be to determine Type and value.
51320,2,Blue Book of Gun Values,Still the standard reference work for grading firearms and determining values.Great price online through Amazon.
51334,2,A GREAT GIFT FOR PEOPLE WHO LOVE TO GO TO YARD SALES...,"I GAVE THIS BOOK TO MY COUSIN FOR CHRISTMAS WHO IS AN AVID ""JUNK"" COLLECTOR AND SHE LOVES IT! SHE LOVES TO GO TO YARD SALES AND FLEA MARKETS, AND IS ENJOYING THE INSIGHTS AND IDEAS THE BOOK HAS TO OFFER. DECORATING IDEAS AS WELL AS TIPS ON WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN YOU SHOP. IF YOU KNOW SOMEONE WHO LIKES TO COLLECT UNIQUE, FUN, OR OLD ITEMS THIS IS THE BOOK FOR THEM!!"
51407,2,A few things you should know about Arkangel's 'Romeo and Juliet',"Whatever else you say about it, 'Romeo and Juliet' is certainly one of Shakespeare's most vivid plays, and here it is movingly brought to life. Romeo (Joseph Fiennes) is sensitive and poetic, without being effeminate, and Juliet (Maria Miles, in a beautiful performance) is shy and modest, yet full of strong emotion. Clive Swift, better known as Hyacinth Bucket's henpecked husband, does a good job as Friar Laurance. Words are enunciated clearly, bringing Shakespeare's meanings out to the fullest, in a performance outstanding even for Arkangel."
51451,2,crayons,"Nice improvement to the crayon, especially for older children. Now we do not have so many broken crayons about everywhere."
51456,2,Sophmores hold on strong,"The second album from this Canadian import, the guys maintained momentum from their last album and have created another winner. Start to finish, polish just perfect, not to shiny clean, and thank god for not going cookie monster. This album seems to have evolved a bit more, a bit more processing, seems to have more studio effects, which is great. They have kept all of their old edge, and given it some new flavor. A front runner in this first half year's best albums in my book."
51480,2,Great Product.........Fast Shipping,Need I say more? The book was brand new - no marks inside or out. I couldn't ask for faster shipping. THANKS!
51487,2,Great as Sniper,"This gun is perfect as a specialtist sniper rifle. Its range and accuracy are superior to that of a nerf or rubber band gun. But, its clip capacity of only 5 rounds force me to give it a 4"
51555,2,Simply mousing excellence by Logitech,"The look and feel of this mouse are absolutely perfect. Its large and feels as if it was literally sculpted to your hand. And oh yea it performs better than any other corded mouse I have used.With customizable buttons you can program the different buttons to do different things add to the fact that the battery life is excellent lasting weeks at a time. I definitely have a hard time thinking of anything bad about it because its simply a joy to use, exactly the way its supposed to be."
51622,2,Early Bay Area Classic,"I was 16 when I first heard this album. Following in the tradition of PE, Paris took conscious rap to another level by espousing the views of Malcolm X and the Black Panthers. When I first heard this album, I never knew who Huey Newton or Bobby Seale were; this album actually taught me a few things. I listen to it now, and I'm still amazed that this album was released on a major label (Tommy Boy).At that time (early 1991), Digital Underground was really the only Bay Area group that had blown up, so I was not used to hearing artists from Northern California. Like many of the Bay Area albums that followed in the years after, 'The Devil Made Me Do It' is dope. Paris' lyrics are tight; the beats are phat; and Mad Mike's scratching is incredible. If you don't have this album, you need to get it."
51632,2,eye opener for musicians,"If you are an aspiring musician and have been offered a contract with a label, consider reading this book first. Moore offers in plain language a sober analysis of how the music business works. He discusses issues that many amateur musicians might be unaware of.Plus, a contract offered to a new, hitherto unsigned band is often badly skewed in favour of the label. The band has very little leverage and it's not a level playing field.Moore also discusses the typical cut from the royalties. Taken by the label for the cost of promotions. Like mailing free CDs of the band's music to radio stations and reviewers. Unwary musicians often don't realise how much of their already minimal royalties can get eaten up this way."
51636,2,Good but could be better.,"Not as strong as the original. Takes a little longer to dry. However, it lasts longer since it will not glue the cap on to itself. Also w/ the brush, it is easier to apply to wherever you need it without gluing your fingers together!"
51669,2,Review: Light a Penny Candle,"Elizabeth and Aisling were childhood friends. Where Aisling was bold, Elizabeth was enclosed in a proper shell. Later, Aisling's support brought her Elizabeth through the painful end of her parents' chilly marriage. In return, Elizabeth's friendship helped Aisling endure her own unsatisfying marriage to a raging alcoholic. This is a story of two girls growing up, drifting apart, and coming back together.. It takes us from their childhood to their early thirties. Aisling and Elizabeth in Light a Penny Candle make you proud as they struggle to defeat the odds. It is hard to describe this incredible book because they go through so many stages, but you find yourself right there with them every step of the way."
51698,2,Nice story,"If you want to read a fairy tale that won't get you anything but a good reading time you can read this one, if this story could be true as it says JP at the end of the book I have my doubts.You will never know what experiments the scientists did to get a flying girl, but you will have a good time reading it. In this book you can also see the great imagination of the writer.The second book (The Lake House) is much more better."
51712,2,A quiet page-turner which took my mind off my sore throat !,"I thought Patterson's earlier books like ""Kiss the Girls"" was one of the best thrillers I had ever read. I read them all PD James, Cornwall, Connelly and others. I found this book to be different, interesting and just enough fantasy to be intriquing. Sometimes you need a twist on the genre to suprise the reader. I recommend the book without hesitation."
51732,2,A great game,"This game has great graphics. Although the charecters on one side are tough to beat and dont have the powerful cards in the beginning. The first two openets that I have beaten were easy to beat when learning the controls. Other than that I'm a Yu-Gi-Oh fan, a video gamer. I reccomend that you buy this game."
51771,2,Marvelous,A great game! Picture a FF storyline and cut scenes with the action of great FPS. I loved this game second only to Shenmue 2 for XBOX
51848,2,Worth Much More Than I Paid,These cables work as well as those that cost three or four times more. I used them to connect my laptop to my TV and the resulting picture quality was outstanding.
51856,2,HDMI Cables,Cables work great. Great price. Better than paying $40-$50 at Best Buy or Circuit City. Very happy with the purchase.
51888,2,great,Great book. Very addicting. Had a hard time pitting it down. Now working on the other books in the series
51899,2,Everyone MUST read this book!,This book was pretty much required reading during my Basic Infantry Training. Very compelling and emotional. Everyone i've recommended it to has loved it as well.
51946,2,A personal soul searching,"Reading Confessions by St. Augustine was a richly rewarding experience. The man examined his conscience, soul and thinking processes with as complete honesty as I have ever encountered in my lifetime. Some of the questions he posed and answered have never entered my mind; other areas he examined and anlyzed were areas of concern to me. In my areas of questioning, St. Augustine provided guidance/direction and most times answers that satisfied my quest for ""understanding"". Altogether ""Confessions"" is a book that I shall read (at leisure) many more times.Rose MillerJackson, MI"
52003,2,Death/Doom meets Egypt?! Alllright!,"If not for anything else, the last four tracks! Oh yeah! But still the rest of the songs are freakin sweet! If you want something different in the death metal genre, perhaps laced with some Egyptian culture and myths,,,pick this bad the freakin up!"
52019,2,A Magical Afternoon Preserved,"Evans at his most easily lyrical, with the extraordinary bassist Scott LaFaro, who died in a car crash soon after. With its companion from the same day, ""Sunday Afternoon at the Village Vanguard,"" this is as good as melodic yet inventive jazz gets. Layne Longfellow"
52022,2,Dunham,Jeff Dunham is hilarious! I purchased 2 DVD sets to give as gifts. I ended up keeping one! It was cheaper to buy from amazon than to buy them in stores! Well worth the price at almost any cost! You should definately buy this item!
52040,2,Love this Guy,"Jeff is a real character, i love his work and this DVD is great..i highly recommend it"
52110,2,The 1st and the best,"To the person from Australia, songs 2 thru 11 were the first full length WASP album released, to hear this would make you throw away anything else you have by WASP as junk. The bonus tracks are good, though ANIMAL is a bit boring these days. It is really too bad every WASP fan does not own this album, though I am looking for an original myself on CD."
52285,2,Keyboard works.,This Microsoft Keyboard works fine. The only problem I have with it is that it did not come in its original container and there was no installation CD. I had to download the software from the web. For the price I paid I guess it is OK.
52323,2,from a college student,"This book was actually quite fascinating. After reading the other reviews, I felt that I would not get this book. However, going into a bookstore I just picked it up. Being 324 pages, the only time I put this book down was for dinner. The reader must not only be interested in romance novels but also this book deals with an old Egyptian legend. (the love story with a curse) Overall, this is a great book and the only reason I did not give a 5 was because very few books qualify for top stars."
52350,2,I found new friends,"This is the first book I have read by Ms. Macomber. A couple of elements caught my eye, a librarian, and knitting. Although the beginning was a bit slow, I soon came to love each person in this book, and wished that I could be there to meet them. This is a gentle book, a good one, and one that I will remember. There is a special quality in a book when you feel you know the people there...you want to meet them and speak with them. These people...I would like to share a cup of tea, or a soda with them.Now that I have found this author, I look forward to reading her previous books, and of course, her next."
52461,2,African American Spirituality,"Peter Paris has written a well-reasoned treatise exploring the relationship between African spirituality and African American spirituality. Whereas other writers see more discontinuity between the two, Paris perceives continuity of beliefs and practices between African religiosity and African American religiosity.Reviewer: Robert W. Kellemen, Ph.D. is the author of ""Beyond the Suffering: Embracing the Legacy of African American Soul Care and Spiritual Direction."" He has also authored ""Soul Physicians,"" ""Spiritual Friends,"" ""Martin Luther's Counseling,"" and ""Biblical Psychology."""
52519,2,Square is Much Better Than Circle,"This was easily the best Pitt mystery in several years. For one thing, the silly Inner Circle plot is gone from this book. For another thing, all the major characters play significant roles in solving a mystery that, while quite complex, is understandable and, at its conclusion, makes perfect sense. This was a very satisfying return to form for Perry. Hopefully, this will continue into her next Monk book, because those too have been a little off kilter for awhile."
52534,2,Classic Horror,"This is horror with the required blood and violence, but with out the all out wanton violence in such movies as Kill Bill or Saw.The extras are cool too! Behind the scenes home movie footage."
52568,2,Great book for building long term wealth,"This is a great book for someone who is looking for long term investing, the books helps you understand the drivers behind the real estate market and how to start and stay in the game."
52569,2,Another geat installment,"Bendis' characterization, dialogue and storytelling technique never falter in the third colume of Alias. I don't actually think that this is where ""Alias hits its stride,"" as is said in the last review; Alias hit its stride with the first volume, and it never looked back.It goes without saying that the writing and artwork are both flawless in every issue. The first issue (#10, which should be the first issue of the last trade; it has more to do with this story, though) is done in water color, which I didn't think was a great idea. But that couldn't any less important. This is great."
52585,2,Great recipes,"What can I say? I have not made all the recipes of course, but what I have made has been a total success. We now use two of the crust recipes for our flat bread sandwiches."
52595,2,The Essential 55 by Ron Clark,I purchased this for my son who is in is second year of teaching 8th grade. He found it very informative.
52646,2,Great movie now available on blu-ray,This is a classic that deserves a place in the all-time great movie listings. Blu-ray just makes it better.
52655,2,"Sweet, touching, funny, thoughtful...","Stand By Me is my absolute favorite movie... no other comes close. My husband and I had our first dance at our wedding to the song Stand By Me. The movie and the song say so much about love and friendship. It's hard to believe that those boys were only children when they gave their performances. The leeches, the train scene, the campfire scene all were true gems of comedy! I rarely like to watch movies more than once, but I would gladly see Stand By Me over any new release!"
52705,2,Excellent Multicultural Story,"This story is so excellent. The reader really gets to understand and sympathise with Stanley. There is actually a double story that all comes together in the end. This multicultural book is a ""must read"" for young adults and adults."
52724,2,"Holes Is Kool / By:Munadi Grade 6, Brooklyn!!!","My Review of Holes is that Holes is all about a kid named Stanley Yelnats is accused of stealing shoes but he didn't, but Zero did and then he dropped it off a bridge, and it landed on Stanley. Stanley fell with the shoes and the police thought that he stole the shoes from the homeless shelter. So, the police caught Stanley and put him in the military camp called Camp Green Lake. And all you have to do there is just dig holes to find a mystery object that only the evil warden knows about. This book teaches you a lesson: Don't ever steal anything because you might end up in a place like Stanley was, or maybe even worse..."
52741,2,I rate Holes 4 stars because…,"Holes is very BORING at the beginning, then I realized it got BETTER AND BETTER AND BETTER after every chapter! This book contains TONS of details, which really got me confused and made me search up the dictionary a lot of times. I describe this book FUN, ADDICTIVE, ADVENTUROUS, And a bit SHORT even though it had 50 chapters! THANKS LOUIS SACHER FOR THIS EXCELLENT BOOK!!! :DI wonder what the next book in the series will be like?…"
52757,2,But where is Volume 2?,"In Europe, three is a volume 2 to this collection with hits like ""A Golden Handshake for Every Daughter"", ""Some People I know To Lead Fansastic Lives"" and the classic ""The Gates of Door to Door"" (this was the theme song to the VH1 show ""Sunday Brunch"" back in the 80s).But the 1st disc is awesome. One of the few ""best of"" collections that actually is the best of their work."
52758,2,Unknown/unappreciated by US listeners,"China Crisis was a great UK band. Unfortunately like many UK bands they got little rotation and airplay here in the states. The only problem with this collection is it's missing ""Diary of a Hollow Horse"", which is a beautifully melodic ""Best of"" song."
52762,2,TomTom Battery,The item was shipped promptly and the packaging was good. Item was a good price and will come in handy for future use.
52763,2,Powerful Stories,"Marijo is a gifted writer who can transport one into reflecting greater spirituality. Truly wonderful short stories that make you think about life now and hereafter, makes you see things from a different view a great read. I wanted to read more, You can actually feel what she was writing. I was sorely disappointed when I reached the end. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who likes Native American fiction."
52772,2,Pushing the envelope!,".......keep in mind that I listened to this with an outside ear, I'm not real familiar with the electronica scene so I just listened carefully for the sake of music. Musicians take notice...no matter what style you play..this is about finding new frontiers! I really liked track #5; Aquatic Necronomicon for his inspiring Primus like bass throwingdowndownerer. Each song is like a journey, sometimes like a movie sound score. Check out this cd.....and I'm normally a metal Head!! Later"
52940,2,fun album w/a different concept,"I bought it because of the incorporation of techno beats/synths with southern blues/rock style guitar (never heard that combo before).When I first got the CD, however, I didn't like it. I felt the playing was, overall, sloppy and I couldn't stand ""Brush with the Blues"" (too long and doesn't quite fit in w/the rest of the album). Fortunately, it's grown on me. I now think every song is really cool...even BWTB. Word is, Beck's style has always been sorta sloppy, yet way advanced - it's his trademark technique.Don't know why it annoys me so, but ""Angel"" is an exact replica of ""Behind the Veil"" from his Guitar Shop album...he just changed the name.This is the first Beck album I've ever heard/bought and, being a technical guitar freak (DiMeola, G.Howe, Morse, etc.) I find this type of guitar music very grounding and pure. (Would buy some of Jeff's older stuff, but it sounds horribly dated)"
52968,2,"J., Scott, Rich, Abs and Sean's got the power.","I have been a fan of 5ive for a long time, and not once have I been disappointed. I always thought of them as a group that I enjoyed until I had the pleasure of meeting them. Just knowing how sweet they really are has made spending money on them easy. This CD is orginial, they write most of their own material -- and they mix pop, r&b, rap and a little rock to make this one of the best CD's ever made by a British band. I congratulate J., Scott, Sean, Abs, and Rich on a job well done. They deserve everything that is coming to them, the hard work that they put into making this album shows."
52987,2,Love really matters,This book talks about what I've suspected for years. Without love we are 6 times or more likely to die from all diseases. Our very survival depends on love. Love is the most powerful force in the universe.
53019,2,Great for small bathrooms.,"We have a half bath that is roughly the size of a small closet. We do not have a counter top next to the sink and there is really no place to put a soap dispenser that isn't mounted to the wall. This product was the perfect height and width for the spot on the wall that is available. It dispenses a perfect amount of soap for washing your hands, not too much and not too little. The dispenser button is easy enough to push and my kids do not have a problem using it.The only thing I didn't like was that it didn't come with hardware to screw it onto the wall. That option would be great because I want to paint in that bathroom but haven't really decided what color I want to paint it. I was able to get it installed without too much hassle (just make sure you use flat screws).So far worth the money that I spent."
53032,2,Fun adventure filled game.,This was a fun game to play when I didn't feel like concentrating very hard or really being challenged. It's a nice hack and slash. I had a lot of fun with the force powers.
53045,2,"A dramatic, moving collection; each poem has a gripping personal story to tell","Becoming the Villainess is the debut collection of free-verse poetry by journalist Jeannine Hall Gailey. Addressing the archtypes of myth, from modern pop culture to Ovid to Grimm's fairy tales, Gailey weaves words expressing the hearts of shunned, reviled, justly and unjustly treated villainesses and female victims of fable. A dramatic, moving collection; each poem has a gripping personal story to tell. ""Daphne, Older"": Peel back my skin: / reveal hard fibers, bite marks, // scars from wind and rain. / Life is pain - I won't tell you // any different. Just that sometimes, / avoiding what you fear // isn't the answer. See? All these years / my branches sang with birds // and my leaves drank sunlight- / I haven't missed much. // My heartwood hardens slowly / over time - first, to the music, then, to the light."
53078,2,The Superb Disaster,i first read this book last year and fell in love with it. it has nearly 20 people going through the upturned ship. they include an old jewish couple a very fiery minister two old men and a family who is falling apart before everyones eyes this book is the ultimate in disaster and i was dissapointed how the movie failed to give you a gripping on the edge of your seat felling where you feel like sitting there forever thinking holy moly
53079,2,Travel Planning Made Easier,"During my recent trip to Europe, this book was found to be very helpful. I had purchased one for myself and my travel partner and we both enjoyed the book immensely. I especially liked the pockets in the back to carry postcards and other documents allowing us to keep organized. The Activity Planner was helpful with the daily schedule of events, meals, etc. I highly recommend using this booklet pre-trip, during the trip and post-trip."
53097,2,I love this product,I choose this rating because this is an excellent product.I've used this type of products for at least 2 months.This product went past my expectation.
53106,2,Sick nasty,Way to go EA. I just bought it the first day it came out. So Sick. The momentuem is so crazy. Graphics are unbelivable. Easy controlls. Beast of a game. GET IT NOW!
53120,2,first person to reveiw this..ha ha ha,"This is a good album. The songs are good. I like the big egg. I like the good words in the songs. Jeff is my hero, like a fireman, but better. He can play really good. My only problem is sometimes it sounds like ""The Banana Splits"". But it is still really really good."
53125,2,Great Casting!,"Maybe not a blockbuster hit, but this movie is quite entertaining and easy to watch. The casting was perfect for this light comedy. It shows the airline industry in its glamour days, which is a bit refreshing."
53151,2,Great for dogs and cats,I love this product. I am amazed at the amount of fur I am able to get off of the cats and dogs.I originally bought this to get mats off of a feral kitty...it does not work good for that.I have used it on all of my pets and they have beautiful coats. Well worth the money.
53158,2,Great de-shedder,My cats love to be brushed with this tool. The amount of hair removed is amazing! Make sure you are outside or in an easy to vacuum area when you use it because of the amount of hair removed. Works great on both long-haired and short-haired cats.
53161,2,Great for removing hair,This product really works for removing hair--but my cats still hate it and run every time I get it out.
53208,2,Enthralling CD of enchantment!,"This envoking CD is joyful and enchanting! The playful and up lifting song, Linus and Lucy, reminds me of the times at Christmas, watching the Peanuts special with my family. I will always keep this CD in my player and never take it out! I am addicted to this CD. It is rich in character and will make anyone smile."
53261,2,This book was cofusing but yet interesting!,"i thought this book would never end but it eventually did.The first few chapters were boring,but then it got cofusing,then interesting,i guess if you like books were they switch bodys is cool but not 2 me its just plan creepy (...)"
53286,2,playing easy to get,"I bought this book for the story of Kresley Cole's ""The Warlord wants Forever"". This is from her ""Immortals after dark series"" and tells the story of Nikolai Wroth and Myst the Coveted. As with all of the books in this series I absolutely loved this story. I highly recommend reading all of the Immortals after Dark books."
53290,2,Wow,"Absolutely stunning lens. Takes gorgous puictures on my Sony A230, wonderful zoom allows you to pull close in on a subject for both extremely close and extremely far shots, though it does suffer a bit in the middle range, but its not really ment for that anyway. Only reap gripe that i have with this lens is the zoom and focus rings are rather stiff and require a bit much effort to move. Overall, an awesome lens for the price, doubly so because it fits Sony cameras which apperently have almost no options."
53305,2,Great advice -- loved this book!,"This is the first book I have read by Elizabeth Pantley and I think she is amazing!This book is honest, practical and doable.So many of the parenting books out there tell you what to do and what the results will be. What you are supposed to do is near impossible and the results are sporadic or not typical.Here Pantley give us specific ways to parent, discipline and work with our kids. Written in a way that is easy to put into practice right away. And she does great reminder pages and wrap ups. She's honest about her own parenting failures and give us acceptance when we screw up.I have recommended this book to my mom's club and think it is the best parenting book I have read (and that is saying a lot!)"
53451,2,"Cute, simple book for young adopted children","This is a nice book for introducing a young child to the concept of adoption. There is a place for the child to draw pictures of him/herself, his/her family and their house. With just a few pages in very simple language, the book talks about the birthmother, the adoptive parents, and uses the analogy of ""adopting"" a pet."
53523,2,Playtex,Excellent product. Even for the well endowed woman. The support of the bra is always reliable and they last long.
53596,2,good historical perspective,"Although fictional, this book gives the reader a good perspective on the history of the middle east and help one better understand things about the current middle eastern culture."
53608,2,A must-have for Newton lovers and erotic photography buffs,"Back in the mid-1980s I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Newton and going on shoots with him in Los Angeles. But my most fond memory was sitting alone with him and having him tell me all about his photography and how he sees what he sees and how encouraging he was to me -- a photographer just starting out. Rather than go on with hundreds of words, all I can say is simply: buy this book. It sums up everything that we've come to know and love about Helmut Newton in one tasty package. Later, you can round it out with other Newton books, but this is a good place to start to capture the essence of this most original of photographers."
53635,2,Pleased with Product,"I requested an air purification system from my apartment management a few years ago when my son was small and we were getting a lot of second-hand smoke from our neighbor's apartment. We received two of these Honeywell models for our 600 sq. ft. apartment and immediately noticed an improvement! (We had a town-house, and we placed one downstairs, one upstairs.) I think you can stretch the recommended square footage a little, as long as you let the purifier run 24/7 and keep the doors and windows closed. Overall, I recommend the product, but suspect that there may be new, improved versions on the market (and now that I've moved into a bigger place, I plan to purchase one with the capacity to clean a larger space)"
53651,2,It's a cable,"The cable itself is exactly what I thought it would be and it is a nice heavy duty cable, however, it did arrive two days late but I'm sure that was the bottleneck of snail mail."
53657,2,Introduces Dr. Laura Hobson,"Fans of PBS Masterpiece Mystery's ""Inspector Lewis"" may be interested to know that this is the book where the Dr. Laura Hobson character is first introduced. This was a good read that kept me guessing."
53695,2,Fast Paced Plot Maintains Interest in Game,"John Corey, last seen leaving Plum Island, is back as a member of an antiterrorist team who are after a mideast terrorist. The action alternates between Corey and The Lion, as the distance between the hunter and the prey shrinks and shrinks. DeMille provides Corey with another female partner, an FBI agent who is more than capable as a law enforcement officer and romance partner for Corey. Using the US bombing raid of Lybia as the basis for the plot, the avenging mass killer, The Lion, manages to stay a few steps ahead of the hunters until the dramatic climax. Although a thick read, the pages fly by for the reader, because there there are no detours from the main plot."
53708,2,"Nice, but noisy...","First of all, before I start complaining, let me say that it is a very nice comforter, all-in all; very warm, nicely made, etc, etc. HOWEVER, something about the fabric (maybe the inner liner that keeps the down from escaping?) that makes it sound like a plastic tarp when you move around. Very disconcerting!! We plan to buy a flannel comforter cover anyway, so maybe that'll help.Anyhow, for [the money], I'd recommend it to anyone."
53735,2,Omron HEM-711AC Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor,We use this blood pressure monitor every day and find it to be veryaccurate when compared to our Doctor checks. It is very easy to use.We would recommend it to everyone.
53738,2,Omron Blood Pressure monitor,I purchased this product on the basis of other positive on line recommendations and it is as good as I expected.
53744,2,Great! Love it,"Great Blood Pressure machine. After having it for over a year, it works great, and keep the information accurate. And you don't need to use the wall plug. One of my best purchases. Would definitely recommend."
53748,2,Very good blood pressure meter,"The Omron HEM-711AC is a very good and easy to use Monitor. The large numbers make it easy to read, and the ability to get an average of the previous reading is very useful. The automatic function is very handy for people who are not able to use the hand pump eaisly. The only draw back is that the battery live is not very long, however using the included power adapter solves that problem."
53762,2,Great apron for the price,"There are better aprons out there but none can beat this price. If you go through them like I do, you can't go wrong with this paron."
53778,2,This is a beautiful translation of India's great scripture.,"The Upanishads, translated by Juan Mascaro, is a beautiful translation, which, like Mascaro's translation of The Bhagavid Gita, breathes simplicity and purity throughout. The Upanishads are maxims on the spiritual life, and are poetry, scripture, guidance all in one. ""The truth is hidden by a circle of gold. Unveil the truth, oh God of light, that I might see!"" ""It is not for the love of the husband that the husband is dear, but for the soul that is in the husband."" ""Behold, all that lives and walks on earth. Leaving the transient, take refuge in the eternal, set not your heart on another's possession. Working thus, a man can wish for a life of one hundred years. Only actions done in God, bind not the heart of man."" (I paraphrase). This collection is truly wonderful, and should be a part of everyone's spiritual library, along with the major scriptures of all the world's faiths."
53815,2,Good read,"This is a page turner. A well crafted story with interesting characters. I am giving it 4 stars because it's not the best story ever and I don't know that it would be a book I would read several times, but I did enjoy it and feel it's worth a look.Many other reviewers had mentioned they thought there were too many sex scenes in the story. I was quite surprised when I read it because I thought the sex was pretty subtle. If you are concerned about a teen reading it, please read it and then decide for yourself."
53841,2,GREAT BUY!,"It shipped very fast. It doesn't feel like any other cheap flip flop. It feels ""heavy"".It's also very comfortable and very true to size.I hope it lasts as long as everyone says it does."
54049,2,gleeful,wow<<<my reaction when i finished readin this book. all iv really gotta say is that vince flynn is a stud. this book was really sweet. the best part is its really captivating intro. u can tell a books gonna be good when its starts out with some commandos knockin off politions DC style. its sweet. read it.
54057,2,used it for fundraiser,the coffee pot was very useful at our fundraiser for Nebraska Border Collie Rescue. we hope to make further use of it in the future
54058,2,Perfect for our office,"We had a West Bend Urn for years (nobody seems to remember how long for sure), so I knew that it would be a good brand to look at for a replacement. Just like another reviewer commented, this is REALLY light-weight. I was actually pretty concerned that they wouldn't hold up with the two warehouse crews that I was getting them for. No problem. Whatever this is made of is great. It's working fantastic... the guys love that they can choose the level of coffee they need (we never have the same number of guys on the crews each day). The guys rave about the taste and the fact that it doesn't have a scorched flavor even later in the day. The cost is not that much more than a small pot (and now I'm thinking that my office needs one.)"
54076,2,A big blast wind from the east !,"Since Sky Masters - when the B2 was on top of South East Asia's Sea, I found another big blast wind from the east. Brown took more serious what happen if China invades Taiwan (I am hoping it's never happen). I read Brown's thriller even more scary this time. All the ballistic missiles ready to aim Taiwan, major scales battle! Hardly to imagine. Definitely Very accurate story and Yes! another best writter from Brown.Don't ever miss this!"
54087,2,A Subversive Gem..,"Normally I loathe the ""dumb guy"" movies that seemed to have emerged around the same time as BILLY MADISON (Dumb&Dumber, Bio Dome, et al.), however Sandler's debut is an incredible exception. This ""low"" comedy has moments of sheer insanity/brilliance that push it towards the realm of surrealism. This is true subversion. Unfortunately, both Sandler and director Tamra Davis were unable to follow up with anything remotely as brilliant. This applies especially to Sandler, whose each proceding movie further mires him in the gutter mediocrity. Witness the travesty of BIG DADDY, a film with as much bite as an episode of FULL HOUSE.. with less humour. Alas, he is now a multi-millionaire..."
54133,2,A Treat for Horror Fans: Real Fun is Back!!!,"Drag Me to Hell is a great film in the sense that it is so ridiculous that it works: so cliche, so gross, you can't help but be mesmerized at the Raimi Brothers' genius and love for horror in its true form. This movie has been brilliantly reviewed by others here, so I will be succinct here by just saying: this movie is worth seeing at any time of the year, and is REFRESHING!!! Enjoy!"
54151,2,What's in a name?,"This isn't just a baby name book. My friend and I spend hours pouring over this wide selection of names. Find the meanings and histories of African through Welsch names. Find the origins of names like Abd-allah, Fiona, Xin,Gilbert,Palekolomaio, and Amaryllis. Spend hours picking out favorites."
54178,2,Almost pulled the trigger....,But then I saw that Nineteen Hundered And Eighty Five was missing.How an earth could they let that happen?Nice collection otherwise.The search continues...
54192,2,The best book I've ever read!! I couldn't put it down.,I thought this book about Lyra and her adventures was absolutely fantastic. Excellently written. The best book I've ever read. I can't wait to read the sequel!!!
54195,2,His Dark Materials Book 1: The Golden Compass,"This book is the best book in the world!! It is a must-read for all ages. It's got drama, action, fantasy, and science fiction. After you read it you'll be craving for more! If you have not read this book, read it now!! Heck, I think it's even better than Harry Potter!!!!!!!!"
54254,2,Great CD,Stamey is a great singer/song writer. This CD will not disappoint. Just as good as his early stuff from the 80s.
54260,2,"Comment on ""the Constant Gardener""","This is a deeply-moving story. The diplomat's wife went to investigate and collect evidence that profitable pharmaceuticals tested unsound drugs on HIV positive mothers or patients in Africa. As a result, she got herself murdered and her husband went to investigate his wife's cause of death and got the truth finally. The plot is very intriguing. We also understand Africa's culture further. It is very sad to see people there living a life like one or two centuries ago. In the end of the movie, the African musical song sounds full of sorrow. Overall, it is a worthy- watching movie which inspires our reflection toward many aspects. No wonder many people strongly recommend it."
54295,2,shape review,I love this tape so much I am on my second copy. It is still good for me after 10 years. I am over 55 and find it both low impact enough for my aging body and yet challenging enough for my active side. Wonderful tape. I'm going to order an extra just in case!
54326,2,This is a great horror game.,"If you are a fan of horror games, scary movies or especially Clive Barker novels, then you will like this game. There are cool sound effects and the graphics are good also. It can get a little gory, so if you are sqeamish about blood, this game is not for you. There are 5 quests that you have to complete, with a boss character to defeat at the end of each one (I think - I have not completed the game yet.) You begin in a mansion and there are characters to interact with and the detail and amount of rooms in this mansion are incredible. I think this is a game worth the $40, for sure. Lots of hours of gameplay to complete this one."
54329,2,As advertised,"Does an excellent job, easy to assemble. The only issue at all relates to figuring out the correct speed for my router. The literature with the bit says what speed to use, but my router, although variable speed, doesnt't relate rpm to the different settings. I kind of guessed, and the bit a) hasn't self destructed and b) doesn't chip or burn the stock, so I must be close to the right speed...."
54405,2,graco pack in play,I love this bassinet. It is easy to set up and take down and the bassinet is big and roomy for the baby. It is everything I hoped it would be. I highly recommend this bassinet.
54516,2,Arrived without lid,"Pitcher seemed nice, but it arrived without the lid. I was hoping they could just send the lid separately, but they require sending it back for an exchange.Update: I've received the new shipment with lid included and I like the pitcher a lot. I was trying to find a large pitcher made of glass that I could brew tea in. The lid is easy to use, simply twist to seal it. It is easy to pour without spilling. The pitcher is quite heavy, which I don't mind, and seems very sturdy."
54542,2,ok.,"While ""containing"" the Hit song:I'd Love To Change The World;;I'm NOT ""impressed"" by That song ANYMORE.(It 'wanders"" ALL Over The Place; first Alvin is singing: I'd Love To Change The World, then he sings: I Don't Know What To Do so I'll Leave It Up To You. Then ""he rethinks his position"" and starts giving Advice/Suggestions. Aaaagh! MAKE ""up Your MIND, Alvin!!"")Other songs (except One Of These Days) ARE ""better""."
54579,2,Moraes Moreira is the Brazilian to watch out for!,"The CD Acustico is a must have, at least for persons who love Brazilian music. Moraes Moreira is well-known in the Samba Carneval Scenes, but the Acustico CD is not your usual Samba number, this CD displays musical versatility. Lots of Eletrico- Guitar and Ijexa rhythm of afoxe groups. Moreira was formerly of Os Novos Baianos and his kind of music is frevo, choro and samba with some jazz-fusion-like arrangements. I own this CD now since 10 weeks and there hardly isn't a day I do not listen to it. 'Acustico' is acoustically phantastic!"
54601,2,A total enjoyment to read,"This is probably the fourth or fifth book that I've read on the subject of the Zohar and the Kabballa, and by far the best. It really helps one understand the valuable teachings that are often between the lines in the Torah (especially for someone like myself without a Jewish background and no knowledge of the Hebrew language). This book kept me hooked from start to begining, and I pretty much read it in one setting. And as a bonus note... all the books from the Harpersanfrancisco ""Essential Series"" tend to be valuable and honest introductions to the various spiritual practices of the world"
54656,2,Brilliant movie...light DVD!!!,"This is as good as suspense/cop/curruption movies gets. Mike Figgis can hold his head up proud knowing he made a studio film within the Hollywood system and with its stars and crew. But can someone get a message to him or the distributers to do a special edition or collectors edition, because this version of the film on DVD has no extras! Nothing! Zilch!... such a pity.It would be nice to see the making of, deleted scenes, commentary, considering Figgis worked on the music as well, which is an absolute cracker, brilliant! Come on Mr Figgis just try it please please!"
54694,2,LONG LASTING WONDERFUL PRODUCT ALL AROUND,"This Woodwick product is outstanding.Unlike any of the many other candles I have bought before, by way of store coupon or someones childs school funtion or bullied & dragged to parties, over the yrs. you know the ones, that claim their candles will not smoke your house up with black smoke & toxins, hours of burn time, lead free.This WOODWICK fresh delightful candle, last for hours & hours.When buying via the web, i was afraid of that overpowering sickly sweet manufactured putrid gagging vanilla smell. NO worries there! It has just the right amount of fragrance, The new wick is Amazingly soothing, love the high quality reusable jars with lid.By following the candle manufacturs wick instrctions I have had no smoke or sutt. You truly get what you pay for with this wonderful product. I give it 5 &#128156;'s"
54726,2,More about the music than the man,"I am not a musician or a musicologist, and so much of this short biography went by me. It does give a general outline of Bach's career and story. It claims that Bach did have an ambition to move up in the musical world, and that this dictated his decisions at a number of key points in his life. It tells the story of his two marriages , and the twenty children( Ten who lived to adulthood) but in a very skimpy way. We do not get from this biography any real sense of Bach's thought or inner life even about his music. We do learn about the period of ' cantata writing' and what he did with the ' piano concerto' and something about the character of polyphony in his music.We do not get a picture of the whole Bachian dynasty in music and the story of how it produced a number of first- class composers, and one overwhelming genius.I think too the biography does not do enough to define that genius, and tell us of its place in the history of music."
54758,2,Aphasia,"Loss of linguistic ability cast light on how a language process circuit in our brains works.This book, though, explains what happens when aphasia develops but at the same time induces thinking of how our brains process visual and audible signals coming from outside in lingustic way mainly through Broca's and Wernicke areas.This book is also good for those who are learning a foreign language."
54779,2,Distressing,"This book was very disturbing to me and at the same time, I couldn't put it down. I can't imagine having to go through life the way Kenzie had. Ms. McFadden gave me insight on what it is like to be the wife/daughter of an alcoholic and the reason(s) for staying in that relationship. An important lesson was reiterated, ""Forgiveness is good for the soul."""
54798,2,"Very Useful, In a general way","This is a great book for beginners and old hands looking for a few new ideas to expand their color range. It has a large listing of plant materials and detailed instructions for different dye baths and it is one of the few books I have seen that treats both cellulose and protein dyes. My only dissapointment is in the color swatches, which are really just printed ink bloches on the sides of each page. Photographs would have been a much better inclusion."
54805,2,John Badham's best.,"War Games was on in the days of the 70 mm craze of the 80's and was lavishly blown-up to the 70 mm screen. Still, except for the later DVD release, its previous film to video transfers (laserdisc included) were all subpar.I bought the latest DVD edition quite recently, but I did not hesitate to get the Blu-Ray disc as well, which is far better, picture and sound wise.War Games is an honest effort, a nice movie all around. With excellent performance of, and good chemistry between the two young actors. Their relationship is flirtatious, well humoured and meticulously directed.The film message is surprisingly up to date, and one hopes that it will eventually go through to the hearts and minds of those who are responsible for the state of constant war awareness that we are still living today."
54811,2,Truly Extreme Metal,"One word for this album : unreleting.Anaal Nathrakh is chaos at its finest. The vocalist has amazing range and variety. The riffs are heavy and, surprizingly...CATCHY.The slightly industrial feel serves the album well and only adds to the atomosphere. Great album, buy it!"
54834,2,Outstanding characters and high drama,"The development of the characters is unusually skillful. The story line moves very quickly. I could do with less gore, but that's TV these days."
54836,2,Review of Homeland TV series DVD - Season One,"After all the hype on the media about this television show it did not diappoint. The writing is clever, intregueing and keeps you focused with its twists and turns. The acting is superb by all. I can hardly wait to view season two. I recommend to any mature audiance who loves spy mysteries loaded with intrigue ans action while looking into the personal lives of the maine characters."
54878,2,"Confusing? Maybe, but that's a good thing.","I really liked this movie. It is a testament to good movies. I have friends tell me, ""Hey, this movie is confusing, therefore, I don't like it."" Confusing is good, it leaves you still thinking of the film even after it's been turned off for a couple of days, which is what I think the director intended. If you really look at it, the film is not that confusing in and of itself. Yes, it deals with intelligent subject matter (wormholes and time travel). Yes, the movie throws you for a loop, creating the sense of confusion. The thing is, there are tons of movies that don't make a lick of sense (Lost Highway, or pretty much any David Lynch movie, which I think are all steaming piles of excrement), but people still like them. Give it a chance, and you will love it or hate it. Me, I loved it."
54923,2,Pentax Optio S camera battery,I needed this battery for a 10-day overseas trip to Greece. Charging the new battery was quick and the charge lasted for my entire trip even with taking and reviewing tons of pictures and frequently turning the camera on and off!
54938,2,spiritual meat!!,"This book may be challenging reading for someone new to apologetics. However, all apologetics books require study and thought. Prepare to think! All science students at the university level should read this book. It points out some of the typical bias opinions that are supported in the typical university setting. Johnson is a great author and this book will stengthen your faith. By the way I emailed Johnson with a question, and he wrote me back!"
55011,2,Always the Best,Gets better all the time. Still keeps you wanting to see more. The best series on TV.
55017,2,Here is the best sequence to listen to this EXCELLENT album,"3. Woman In Chains11 Change4 Shout2 Everybody Wants to Rule the World9 Laid So Low (Tears Roll Down)10. Mothers Talk12. Advice for the Young at Heart5. Head over Heels1. Sowing the Seeds of Love6. Mad World7. Pale ShelterI left out 8 ""I Believe"" but if you have to listen to it... put it before 6. ""Mad World"""
55020,2,Atlantis,Enjoyed very much. It was part fiction and part fact which gives more real life meaning to actual facts. I also liked the hard cover which makes it a new addition to my library.
55031,2,YOU WILL DEFINITELY KNOW WHO JILL SCOTT IS AFTER HEARING THI,"I had never heard of this wonderful talent until I got the newest edition of vibe magazine the other day and read an article about her. I logged on, and sampled her music then went straight to the record stoe. I have'nt taken her cd out of my player yet, and don't intend to anytime soon. Her music is what I've been searching for for so long. She seems like a beautiful person, down to earth. The cd is smooth, soothing, relaxing, and the lyrics are incredible. This is the best cd I've purchased this year so far. Thank you Ms. Jill Scott!"
55044,2,An elegant visual book for /about people who love tools,"My favorite Christmas gift -- the cover is Red, the stock feels great to the touch, and there's plenty of white space. It's a book and an exhibition in one. It's filled with people who love their work. Work, Life, Tools qualifies as great design. (Hats off Milton Glaser, and to Steelecase for being enlightened enough to fund the exhibition.) This book cum exhibition guide ranks high on the visual, aesthetic and conceptual pleasure scale. My favorite aspect: the way the bios portray the multiple talents and the ""I don't just do one thing"" truth about their subjects. It's filled with lots of practical ah-has. You get to peek into people's work spaces. It represents a fascinating spectrum of thinking about work. And, it's amazing to me how loyal people are to their fountain pens (as one who's committed to Deluxe Uni-balls.) I loved it!"
55096,2,Lucky Man,"This seems like an honest autobiography. Mr. Fox does not try to make himself look better; he admits his falling under the spell of his celebrity. However, the best part is how he became his own person again. He is dealing with Parkinson's disease and he is actively pursuing research through his foundation."
55102,2,the hot chick,if rob was a gay guy this is how he would be..lol..very very funny and very much a great gal pal..:)
55159,2,Great Disc!,This is one GREAT disc. If you're a Doors fan you should snag this one. Ray's a GREAT musician!
55183,2,Destroys the 78 version,"This movie was great in every way, wish they would make a sequel. Unfortunately they used the name of a campy lame 1978 zombie film that also took place in a mall. But because the original holds a special place in the hearts of many, this film will get mostly venom along the lines of ""Romero is great blah blah social message blah blah MTv blah blah."" Lets be honest the 78 version was good in 78, not now. Blue zombies, orange blood lumbering around (if you get caught you deserve it) the pie fight scene and the lame dialogue of the 78 version just doesn't age well. And lets not forget the ""dead rise and eat the living"" is believable, but the ""recently infected can run"" is somehow unbelievable. Start to finish this movie was great and is awesome to watch as a double feature with Shaun Of The Dead. Stay away from the Land of the Dead, its more of the ""social message"" garbage. Luckily Romero can't claim ownership over zombies even though his worshippers wish he could."
55251,2,Slam Dunk It's Not! But Just As Good.,"Although very similar to the anime, Slam Dunk, Harlem Beat brings it to another level. Nate Torres is a teen who discovers Street Basketball. And with a cast of misfits, learns to love the game. Intense, suspensful situations gives this graphic novel its' appeal. And later volumes just enhances it even more."
55256,2,A classic.,"I only wonder what would have been if these guys would have performed this material in a state of the art studio with the full backing of a producer. Despite the technical shortcomings from the recording, the music has to be one of the most inspired I've heard from any progressive band in over 20 years!"
55306,2,Just what I needed,I was sick of throwing my belts into a drawer so purchased his product. It took a minute to screw it into the wall in my closet and now my belts hang nice and neat. This is a sturdy belt or tie rack with plenty of hooks for both. Great product for anyone wanting to keeps things in order and it fits right along with the other racks in my closet nicely.
55344,2,Trower's Classic Gets Remastered Again And Adds Different Bonus Tracks!,"Released in 1974 the ex-Procol Harum guitarst's solo career was definately heading in the right direction. With ""Bridge Of Sighs"" his second studio album Trower shows his fretboard abilities more than ever. His Hendrix inspired guitar solos are awe dropping as can be heard on such standout cuts as ""Day Of The Eagle"", ""The Fool And Me"", ""Lady Love"", ""Too Rolling Stoned"" and ""Little Bit Of Sympathy"". The eight added bonus tracks from The BBC Sessions which include ""Bridge Of Sighs"", ""In This Place"", ""Alethea"", ""Little Bit Of Sympathy"" sound very good and add almost thirty four minutes to this gem of a cd. Soundwise, it isn't that much of a drastic improvement from the older 1999 remaster (which also included bonus tracks) but it's miles ahead of the 1990 non-remastered version. If there's one Trower cd you buy, this should be it! A must have for any classic rock lover."
55425,2,Bicycle built for two,"2001 is one of those movies that have to be seen - and when people do see it, they either love it or hate it. I fall in the first category.The story has inspired many different TV shows - including X-Files, Simpsons, Futurama and Batman (cartoon) episodes. It's written very well, and told as only Kubrick could tell it - with parts that both confuse and captivate.Do yourself a favor and rent it, at least. Whether you love it or hate it, you'll at least have something to say when people discuss it.P.S. I guarantee ""Daisy, Daisy"" will never sound the same way again."
55498,2,Best icon book ever,"This is a gorgeous book on orthodox icons. Any ideas where I can purchase a copy? I borrowed it through an inter-library loan, but cannot seem to find a copy to buy."
55509,2,Beyond just a greatest hits package....,"...this compilation gives you everything from ""The Letter"" to a couple of tunes at the end that the band itself probably wishes hadn't been included in this set. Overall though, its an excellent package - you get all the great BTO hits, plus some damn good album tracks that are well worth a listen. One thing becomes clear as this is listened to - had the band primarily focused on Fred Turner vocals and songs, they would have achieved even greater fame, fortune, and acclaim."
55566,2,"DVD is where ""The Wizard of Oz"" belongs!","I'm ashamed to say just how many versions of TWOO I have. Let's see.... Beta (2), VHS (3), LD (1), DVD (now 2). This film classic has been a part of my life since first seeing it in the 1950s. I've watched it many, many times, and never cease to be amazed by the beauty of the story. This newest edition of the classic contains musch to make it a ""must have"". I found the documentary by Angela Lansbury, the outtakes, interviews, and audio tracks to be well worth the cost. In addition the color transfer is first-rate, better than any other of my editions."
55620,2,Unhappy,"The item was great, being a phone battery, however, the weight was in ounces,(package and battery), and I was charged shipping for 6 pounds. Outrageous!! When questioned they said that was the cost of shipping. On their site shipping was quoted as $6.97 +/-. I was charged almost $11.00. Would NEVER do business with this company again."
55656,2,Will and Grace Season 4,"Well, i LOVE will and grace, this season was really great. I loved it and i plan to buy all past and upcomming seasons. I'm not gonna sit here and give you all the episodes and a discription, because other people will do that. I actually have a life. :) Anyway the point is that this is a very solid investment. When i first got it i watched it at least once a day for like 2 weeks. So its good. :)"
55680,2,Funny looking thing,When I first got it I kind of didn't like because of the front wheel fork being so thin that can be twisted and even broken easily. It didn't seem funny at first and I was almost ready to sell it when I showed it to my 10 months old son and he loved it. He enjoyed so much that I decided to keep it for him when he is older.
55716,2,"thanks, it's good to carry an extra battery","a bit expensive yes but i take alot of pictures, and I needed an extra battery on a few special occassions, so it is worth the money, just what i needed, thanks.."
55754,2,Good price for the purpose,"Bought this for my 6 year old son who picked this item.As we know, costumes for the halloween are made of cheap materials.There is no docs like manual but I could figure it out by looking at the big picture of red ninja in the package.I think this has good price for the purpose compared to other online shops."
55801,2,Impressed with this newcomer - Jolof Groove,"This CD is really groovin'! A good mix of different musical styles. Really enjoyed the Senegalese percussion, and musicality of the guitarist and singer. This album reminded me of Sting and Peter Gabriel, particularly the songs ""Water"" and ""So the Story Goes"" - but with a whole new twist! I would recommend this CD to any listener no matter what your musical taste, Jolof Groove is definitely the answer!! Can't wait to hear them live and see what new ""grooves"" they come up with!"
55829,2,Classic Vamp Comedy,"If you love 80s comedies and vampire films, definitely snag this gem finally available on DVD. But, there are two problems. The first is that it's still in Full Frame instead of Widescreen. Why go through the motions of putting this great comedy out in only Full Screen? Second, the disc cover indicates it has a 5.1 Dolby sound audio. This is a lie. I just checked the channels and they are not separated properly like an true 5.1 DVD. Instead, channel one through three are all the same - music, sound effects and dialog mixed together. If this was an actual 5.1 disc, channel one would be music only, channel two sound effects with a bit of music and the third what you hear in the film. This situation really disappointed me since I've been trying to complete the soundtrack to this film for quite awhile now and had high hopes to get the needed songs from the 5.1 audio. Other than these two errors, the movie is still a must have for 80s comedy and vampire fans."
55881,2,Great sunglasses,"Wiley X Blinks are great because of the removable gasket. I live in a windy area, blowing dirt being a common problem. The form-fitting gasket, and subtitle venting of the gasket, solves the dust problem perfectly. And, for lawn-mowing tasks, they are absolutely perfect eye protection. Probably they are intended for motorcycling, but they are suited to a multitude of situations.And, they are snazzy looking, hence a grand fashion statement.What's not to like??"
55889,2,"celine dion, a new day","product was great. Amazon sent two copies and charged me for two, I only clicked on one. Is this a new way of making money? I kept the second copy so I guess Amazon's mistake worked, huh? Will think again about ordering from Amazon, as this was the second time this has happened."
55985,2,Everything they touch turns to gold (or platinum),"I still have yet to get sick of this song. Of course, I have Creed's 2 cd's but I also try to search out rare unreleased tracks. The extra stuff on here does the trick. To Whom It May Concern is a great song that for some reason didn't make it on to either of their 2 albums. What's This Life For(the acoustic version) sounds great too. I highly recommend this cd to Creed fans."
55990,2,The real deal,"Got this to accommodate using oversized filters with a step-up ring on my new lens. It is the genuine NIKON lens cap, in original packaging."
56040,2,The Best of New York City (their 1st two albums),"For the collector, this is the CD to have. Rather than ""The Best Of,"" it is actually New York City's first two albums, as they were originally released, on one CD. And, since, to my knowledge, they only released two albums, this CD might more aptly be titled ""The Complete New York City."" The critics don't seem to agree with me. However, though their first album, ""I'm Doin' Fine Now,"" contains the ""hits,"" it is their Thom Bell produced second album that is the real gem. By then, NYC had stopped trying to sound like the Spinners having developed its own sound, which was not as flashy but just as soulful. Not as ""singles"" oriented, ""Soulful Road"" has a stylistic continuity their first effort lacks. It remains one of my favorite albums and I highly recommend this CD for anyone who loves the Philly Sound."
56053,2,Dear Mr. Henshaw Review by Charlie,"Dear Mr. Henshaw by Beverly Cleary is a funny book, filled with surprises. I would give this book five stars. It is a book about a kid named Leigh who keeps writing to an author named Mr. Henshaw. Leigh's parents were recently divorced and Leigh is annoyed about it. The way Leigh's mother and father have been acting is making him sick. Leigh has no friends because he is the new kid in school. That makes me sad. Leigh then becomes friends with the janitor which is weird. Leigh keeps having food stolen from his lunchbox everyday. He becomes furious with his treats getting stolen. I would recommend this book because it is a hilarious book to read."
56098,2,DVD IS HERE!,hey all! your wish came true.. do a search.. the dvd series are here!!!.. :) and season one is a great buy!
56158,2,Best strings I've ever used,"On a friends recommendation I put them on a 'beater' ovation that I use when playing outside or with alternate tunings. They are now going on every guitar I own :) .Get 'em, you won't be disappointed."
56196,2,Murach's C# 2005,"I feel the book was good, and met my expectations. There is a lot of good information in the book. There is a good balance between the programming language C#, and Visual Studio 2005. After reading this book, you should be well-rounded at C# and Visual Studio 2005. You should be able to develop your own applications after reading the book, and you'll have a good foundation."
56212,2,jdofthewest,I enjoyed the dvd even more than first National Treasure. I have watched it several times. The DVD is in excellent shape. Thanks!
56247,2,Wish I could meet this fascinating man,"An amazing book by an adrenalin-junkie warrior with empathy, idealism, a deep desire to protect his country, a degree in English and no small writing talent. His account is passionate and rich in detail.Lots of good weapons and tactics information. Great profiles of the other agents. Fascinating chapter near the end on interview/interrogation techniques, with techniques for reading people.My only mistake was getting this book at the library, so I have to return it."
56345,2,Pur,Awesome. Wonderful. Superb. I Love it. It is simply the best. I am tired of writing reviews that have to follow Amazons inane rules on length s for right now if I like something this is the review the product will get. Stupendous.
56364,2,My health and weight-loss answer!,"I have lost 30 lbs. and feel healthier and more alive than ever. I thought it would be very hard to give up processed foods and live on real, unprocessed, whole foods; but, it has not been. I will always enjoy an occasional unhealthy food; but, this program is my new way of life. It's not a diet. It's a new way to live in optimum health!"
56404,2,No Blu-Ray ??,"BSG is the best dramatic series ever produced. The writing & acting is unsurpassed. It restores my faith in the ""system"". It's the only dramatic series I've consistently watched in the last fifteen years. But here's my beef. Why no Blu Ray? Why does Universal want to reduce its HD sales by half? Are they in the business of making movies, or are they in the business of marketing electronics? I'm not going to run out and buy a HD DVD player for a few HD-DVD discs. Warner Brothers has recently seen the light, and is releasing movies on both formats. Universal needs to take note. If Universal were to release a Blu Ray version of BSG, I would buy it. But until then, I'll be sticking with my regular DVD set, and spending my $$ elsewhere. The same goes for my Season One Original Star Trek DVD's."
56406,2,On the Homefront,"Cassel's second book takes a look at families (traditional and non-traditional) from a long-negliected perspective--that of kids! She uses a biblical base, fictional stories, and the experiences and comments from kids of all ages to learn what being in a family is all about. The book covers topics from why families were created, to communicating with parents, to fighting fair with siblings to birth order issues. The book not only gives great information, but includes discussion quertions to get conversation flowing as well."
56456,2,The future of portable music,"This is an excellent product; couldn't be easier to use, smaller than a lighter, decent memory capacity, sounds great (with good head phones). I would bet you will see a number of imitators pretty soon."
56461,2,Very Good Product,Purchase 5 bottles and gave a few away as gifts. Great product for the price. Makes my skin soft and silky. I will absolutely purchase more.
56462,2,A fun ride!,"This one's the best Megamorphs so far, I agree. The start is really clever, if I was a bit confused. The Droid is one of my favourite characters! All the history and alternate-universe structure of the plot, plus the time-travel angle, are the kewlest as far as I've seen, and it put a twist to things as well. A fun ride. Jump in!"
56471,2,A good end to a great trilogy,"This book was very enjoyable, the first being Lord Valentines Castle (A masterpiece), the second Majipoor Chronicles (A dissapointing compilation of short stories), and finally Valentine Pontifex, which was more in the ilk of the first in the series. The book was well written and held my interest from start to finish. My only minor criticism being that some of the earlier characters, whilst present were not explored further or made much use of in this the final rendition. Still a great book and worth a read."
56493,2,HISTORY FOR HISTORIANS,"THIS IS A GREAT BOOK IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THE SUBJECT OF SLAVERY AND ANTI-SLAVERY. THE AUTHOR, WITHOUT QUESTION ONE OF OUR GREATEST HISTORIANS OF THE SUBJECT, GOES BEYOND THE ARTIFICIAL LINE OF THE CALANDER IN RELATION TO OUR CIVIL WAR AND OFFERS AN INSIGHTFUL VIEW OF THE EFFECT OF SLAVERY IN THE PERIOD LEADING UP TO THE FOUNDING OF OUR COUNTRY. tHIS IS A GREAT BOOK FOR THE SERIOUS STUDENT, NOT FOR THE CASUAL READER."
56593,2,Imagine Dylan and a Young Van Morrison,"For over 20 years Ian Charles has done it the old fashined way, through touring the East Coast area all the way to his sold out Wishing Street tour with over 400 dates nationwide!This roots based artist has stayed true to the vision of alternitive Americana music with his heart and soul..A stunning live performer,smart enough to utilize modern music technology today..he brilliantly combines smart folk music with powerfull singing and a wow stage presence...similar to an early Van morrison..Be sure to catch his upcoming regional tour with his new band Little Victories !"
56613,2,"Government by the People, 2009 edition","The order arrived in timely fashion, actually 2 days earlier than promised. The text description said ""good"" and it was, possessing few markups and no torn pages."
56781,2,Awesome socks!,These socks are very comfortable and very cozy but also allow your feet to breathe so that they don't get too hot.
56790,2,Great,"As a volunteer chaplain in Santa Clara County, the inmates request it frequently and it is highly prized. Unfortunately, it appears to be out of print."
56907,2,A great book!,"Sad, entertaining, and humorous. These are the words I would use to describe this book. This book continues on the Tillerman cycle. The three Tillerman children have now found a home with their granmother, and they are living a h appy life. Their grandmother doesn't have enough money to support the three children so they have to get welfare money. They found out that their mom is going to die so Dicey, and grandma go visit her, and While they are there she passed away in her hospital bed. The children don't cry, and get over the fact because they know that they have to continue their life, and just not give up. They haev each other to ebrace themselves, and they find out that life isn't simple, and it's a hard game!"
56933,2,Med dispenser,"Very good while traveling, small, easy to use, easy to to see if you have missed or taken meds, easy to load and use..."
56956,2,"If You Like Adventures, Read This Book!","... This book, Flat Stanley is so good because Stanley gets flattened by a bulletin board. An art gallery owner calls Stanley and asks him if he can dress up in a girl's outfit and go in an empty frame and be a picture. He wants Stanley to catch robbers who have been stealing his art work. Because Stanley was flattened he can do more stuff that you and I can do. Stanley is still flattened but does he become normal again? You find out by reading the book. If you read this book I can guarantee you will love it!"
56977,2,needed for daughter that has been chopping by hand,given as gift-loved it-our raditional Christmas cookies require a lot of chopping of dry fruits-this does the job just right
57018,2,Great bottle opener,"This works so much better that the manual opener I used to have,and the rechargeable battery is great also."
57045,2,Pretty in Pink!,"Beautiful. practical and inexpensive. What more can I say? If you have a toddler, you need this item."
57160,2,"a lightweight, comedic crime caper in Key West; a fun read","'Florida Straits' by Laurence Shames sort of falls into the domain largely owned by Carl Hiaasen: funny crime stories set in southern Florida. However unlike Hiaasen Shames doesn't have any sort of political/social agenda. He simply goes for laughs, and by enlarge succeeds nicely.In 'Florida Straits' we have ""stoopid"" New Yorkers relocating to Key West. As part of their baggage comes their crime family heritage (read: mafia). Naturally some caper gets cooked up amongst the palm trees and, well, that's basically it. Shames does treat us, however, with some very funny characterizations. And he is compassionate with all the quirky folks who call Key West home. However I did find his stereotype of Italian descent New Yorkers to be a bit over the top, especially in making fun of their rather curious accent. It is one joke that he milked too hard and too often.Bottom line: a fun yet rather brainless poolside read."
57168,2,If you love football...,I am looking in to coaching for fun and this is a great book to have. There is a lot of coaching information and great football information in general.
57174,2,"High quality, fast delivery, great price--How can you beat that?","As usual, Amazon offered exactly what I wanted. The detailed description made it easy to choose the exact item that met my needs. The bench is very sturdy, easily adjustable, and strong without being heavy and cumbersome. Even though the shipping was free, it only took a few days for delivery. The price was most reasonable. These factors all added up to a perectbpurchase."
57175,2,"help, i beg.",Does anyone know the title of the song being played in the Seabiscuit trailer still in theatres? It's one of the most moving pieces I have ever heard - and I'd love to know where to get it. Thank you.
57221,2,Great Cable Low Cost,There is no need to buy the nintendo HD component cable when you have this a lower cost and really improve the Wii image.
57225,2,A great old movie,"The movie arrived quickly and it was a pleasure to watch it once again. The only bad thing? I went to put it away after I watched it, and found we already had a copy!! :-)"
57314,2,Kids' cooking a delight,"The layout is modern, eye-catching, and yet very kid-friendly. The explanations of kitchen terminology and kitchen utensils are simple enough for kids to understand; thorough, yet concise. The recipes are fun. They use ingredients that are usually in the typical kitchen, or are easily accessible at the local grocery store. The illustrations are brilliant and eye-catching. But the best part? Seeing our jr. chefs at work, making their own culinary delights...and the pride in their eyes at creating something tasty and healthy!"
57315,2,Better Homes and Gardens New Junior Cook Book,"This is a very well written, pretty,colorful, junior cookbook with great photos and recipes for a child to enjoy. My nine year old grand daughter was very pleased with it and enjoyed just sitting and reading it for quite a while before taking it home to try. Highly recommend for the child wanting to learn to cook"
57338,2,My Word.......,"I found the book very entertaining. It amazes me that there are so many negative individuals out there who simply can't reward someone for having an ingenious/creative idea. From reading some of these reviews I can see that random acts of kindness are not everyone's forte' (does it matter if you gave to a homeless person, to karyn or to a more worhtwhile cause) I can only speak for myself...but when I give (regardless of where) I do it from my heart. This women didn't set out to hurt anyone, she asked and she received...ummm, now didn't someone we all know and love (well at least me) tell us to do exactly that. You go girl....And hey, to everyone else...give it a rest on the the literary critique, it's a lite read, view it as such."
57444,2,Excellent.,Beautiful. Cracks the pepper with hardly a turn. I expect this to be the last pepper mill I'll need to buy.
57590,2,One of my favourite martial arts books of recent times!,"I love books that make you think and include fascinating, new ways of looking at the old. Shotokan's Secret is definitely one of those books! It's also an incredibly well written book that is a true ""page turner"". I really liked the original edition and this new expanded edition has a lot of new material and is also a must read; even for those who have the original. Whether you agree with the ultimate conclusion of the book or not, what is beyond doubt is that Bruce Clayton presents his case is a very engaging way, the book will really get you thinking about your kata, and reading it will definitely add a new dimension to your understanding of kata, bunkai and the development of karate. One of my favourite martial arts books of recent times!"
57595,2,Excellent Space Drama,"Timothy Zahn has a reputation for taking the reader completely by surprise, but- unlike many 'big climax' authors- making the whole journey a fun read. He has definitely outdone himself in ""The Icarus Hunt,"" which is packed with intrigue and excitement. I was totally blown away by the startling conclusion, and the amazing thing is that in retrospect, it all fits together! This is truly the mark of a master storyteller."
57610,2,Old blood-n-guts comes to bigger than life,"Anyone interested in the military history of the second world war or the life of George Patton will enjoy this work. It does a fair job in historical accuracy of the events that surrounded his contraversial career and demonstrates the character, flaws and all, that made him so. Though Mr. George C. Scott's voice matches the General's character more than his actual voice, the casting choice was otherwise a perfect match. A fantastic biographical work of the scrappy general."
57615,2,One of the best books I have ever read!,"Throughout this book, you will show just about every emotion possible. I was giddy, I was sad, excited, angry, and I cried a lot!This book showed me what it was like for the Japanese and Japanese-Americans during this time. To be honest, I was kind of clueless until now.I fell in love with Hiroko and everyone around her. All of their strength and courage are just a few of the qualities that everyone should strive to have.This is one of the best books, if not the best book, I have ever read! I'm sure anyone who reads it will absolutely LOVE it!"
57652,2,"Big Jake, big fun","This movie was a Wayne family affair. Michael produced, Patrick starred, and Ethan (Wayne's grandson) was featured. This was also his last pairing with Maureen O'Hara and though their scenes were few, they were classic. Richard Boone is excellent as the villian. Look for a lot of familar faces rounding out the cast. Wayne is as comfortable in this role as an old shoe. The action builds to a great shoot out climax. This movie has one of Wayne's best lines too. ""You can call me Jake, you can call me father, you can call me you dirty son of a b.... This movie is worth it for that scene alone."
57655,2,This was very Good,The picture quality was surprisingly very good. I glad I have this in my collection.I remember going to see this movie when it first was release. Liz Taylor was the first actress to receive a million dollars for playing this role. Again the quality of the HD was very good. They schould make this move in 3D
57695,2,Good Value,This is a nice addition to my kitchen. It makes freezing cut up vegetables alot easier. I havent tried it for cheese yet.
57704,2,Nice,Item works well but can be extremely dangerous. I am ordering the kevlar glove and store in a safe place from children and use the storage container supplied with the cutter. Clean up promptly. Stay focused and follow the directions exactly.
57705,2,best thing since sliced bread,I was skeptical at first that a simple 'grater' type instrument could do the things it said in the write-up. I'm now convinced this mandoline is sooooo much better than any grater I've ever used. I made a 'potato tart' that called for many VERY THIN slices from about 3 lbs of potatoes. I was shocked when it took me twice as long to peel them as it did to get perfectly sliced potatoes thin enough to see through. I would recommend this kitchen tool to anyone.
57754,2,"Bought the movie, Bought the horse...","Love the movie... so much so that 20+ years later, I bought the horse! (Well, not THE horse, but a Friesian...). :) I enjoyed the story--but really, all of the horse lovers out there know it's all about the horse and the fabulous horseback fighting scene at the end. Too cool!"
57763,2,"That's ""Frawnk en steen!""",Gene Wilder plays the great-grandson of Dr. Frankenstein who is trying to forsake his family history...until his ancestor's last will & testament arrives. He goes to Translyvania & meets Igor (Marty Feldman) who helps him find the ancient lab where the Frankenstein monster was built & builds one of his own. Madeline Kahn co-stars. It's totally funny. It'll leave you in stitches.
57771,2,This is a wonderful old Tommy Lee Jones movie,This is a wonderful old Tommy Lee Jones movie. I remember this movie from when I was ten and will never forget the action scenes and acting. I definately recommend this movie if you like action movies or early Tommy Lee Jones stuff.
57827,2,Great intermediate workout ;-P,"I own several Ellen Barrett led workouts, and this is one of the better ones. She's always chipper and outgoing without being anoying or offputting and she leads very well, with clear instruction so you shouldn't get lost too much.All up, this is about 45 minutes and great to do either after a strenuous workout, or at the end of a hard day. You will definately increase flexibility and balance after doing this even only a couple of times. It does get a little easier with each try. With all the yoga moves, there is also muscle toning too. I love the little stretches between moves. There is nice relaxing instrumental music and overall the workout is relaxing (yet you will feel this for the next day or so).I really enjoy doing this (I'm not a major Yoga fan, but enjoy this one) and have done it even twice in one day for the heck of it. It's great and Ellen is great. She's a terrific instructor who clearly loves doing yoga and teaches well. I highly recommend this one."
57869,2,DOES NOT RELY ON SPECIAL EFFECTS,"Yes, this movie was made 21 years ago but it by-far surpasses many sci-fi movies of the last 21 years. Alien relies on an excellent storyline and exceptional character development. Not to mention the great talents of Sigourney Weaver, John Hurt and Tom Skerrit. I remember when this movie was on HBO in the early eighties- it was unlike anything that we had ever seen- it still is 20 years later- still scares the hell out of me."
57945,2,Hot!,"This is the book I've been waiting for. What took so long? Is it so hard to conceive a sophisticated Latin lifestyle book? While it's filled with so many traditional and nuevolatino recipes, great cocktails, and decor ideas I love how it adds other elements of Latin lifestyle--namely travel and cultural customs. I looooove this book. Most of the food is pretty simple to prepare. The beautiful pictures really inspire you!These sexy authors need their own Spanish and English language show on Food Network!!"
57948,2,Book,"I agree to an earlier review stating that the author leaps subject to subject. Even annoying at times. On upside of things i simply enjoy the ideas that he dredges up and the theories he propses. The author makes no attempts to over embellish his theories (no more than the scholars that Preach what so many of us have taken as granted for being facts since as early as elementary school). The Ideas are eye opening and at the very least, highly entertaining. For I to take the time to write a review for a book i read on Amazon, I know it's worth the read."
57978,2,Speculative fiction that deals with a sensitive subject,"Adam-Michael James takes an interesting twist on family cruelty and poses a big ""what if?"" What if you could undo all the bad things that happened to you? Would you be better off, or would you make matters worse. What if you could be transported in time? What would you do, what would you not do? That's the premise of ""Undo the Deed.""James' speculation makes for an interesting novel. In some ways, it is reminiscent of the famous book by Marge Piercy ""A Woman On the Edge of Time"" --in that novel a woman in an abusive relationship finds herself transporting back and forth in time. Here, the protagonists get choices, take chances. If you like speculative fiction, and fiction that deals with an emotionally charged subject such as abuse, you will find ""Undo the Deed"" fascinating. I did. (The subject can of course be disturbing if you are a victim of child abuse--so be forwarned. )"
58029,2,One of my favorite movies,"One of my favorites, it gives a very humanistic view of war as seen from the eyes of an American destroyer and a German Submarine. Both Commanders are smart and use all their skill and experience to out wit the other. Both are professional and do their jobs to the best of their ability but realize that there is a real live person on the other end. without seeing or meeting, they respect and try to understand each other. It is not so much a war movie, but a movie of the human condition. Both Jurgens and Mitchum give depth of charactor. Fans of star trek will recognize this movie as an episode was directly lifted off this storyline."
58127,2,Conjures up remarkable absurd scenes,"I am not too sharp on the chonological order of literature history, but this guy seems to me to be a kind of beatnik prerunner. John Fante is an entertaining company, at times he even manages to be funny, despite the great span of time which separates, when he wrote the story, and then me here in 2012. One of the things which strikes me about the novel is some remarkable, sometimes absurd, scenes, which Fante is able to conjure up. He is good at that, among other things. John also seems to be a narcissist."
58176,2,Great Product and MADE IN THE USA!!!,"Highly recommended! These batteries work great, last a long time, and are inexpensive! Plus they are made in the USA so it is a no brainer to me. Why not support our economy and the American workers? Buy these!"
58177,2,Such a deal,I tested every battery in the pack and found them all fully charged.At the price i replaced everything i had that took this size.Mine have a 2016 date code on them :)
58192,2,"good movie, great soundtrack!","I watched this movie on demand recently, I was 5 when it originally came out and know now why my parents made me go to bed when they watched it. Being from Michigan, I find it cool the friends attended the University of Michigan and even watch a U of M football game in the movie. I love how the characters reconnect quickly even though it is also apparent they have not been in close contact until the loss of one member of their group. They eat, drink, laugh, smoke, reminisce and love during the course of a weekend at a house I thought was the same as Forrest Gump (I later found it is not, but both are in South Carolina). My favorite character was Meg (Mary Kay Place), a successful lawyer with a maternal yearning who thinks she is running out of options until a friend offers the ultimate gift. A first-rate story of the triumph of friendship, it does leave some loose ends, but really a terrific hour and 45 minutes."
58249,2,son was thrilled,I looked and looked everywhere for this. I was thrilled to finally find it. My son was thrilled. He watches it all the time
58259,2,Mondo Heart,"We've been waiting 4 years for a new Pagan Love cd and it's been worth the wait ! Jai Uttal's musical vision has maturedimmensely since the great ""Shiva Station"". He brings a new conception to ancient prayers (we can pray and dance at the same time!), and dives deeper into an expanded pallette of sounds, musical themes, moods and colors . Listening to this collection of songs, I feel like I'm travelling across the globe.You have to listen to Jai's version of the Beatle's classic, ""Tomorrow Never Knows"", and the Hebrew prayer for peace, ""Shalom"", to understand the vast scope of this CD."
58287,2,Excellent...,"This was a gift for my Daughter. I paid only a fraction of the cost of a new DVD, and received the entire set! My Daughter was so happy with this gift! She has had ""Karate Kid Day"" at least 3 times since she got them..."
58294,2,Great Movie Collection,I ordered this 4 DVD set for my grandchildren because they had never seen or heard of The Karate Kid. The service from Amazon.com was great; they were delivered within 2 days and the DVD's are first rate and great quality. I would definitely recommend this product.
58402,2,"Back off man, I'm a scientist","This film is at least as funny, if not more funny, as when it first aired in 1984. 3 parapsychologists of varied interest and sincerity discover there truly are ghosts. When they are kicked out of the university and forced to work in the private sector they are met with surprising success. It turns out a spirit assault is being leveled against humanity and these brave souls along with some hired help will stand against the forces of a nether world.Some great lines include:Back off man, I'm a scientistOk. So. She's a dog.No human would ever stack books like this.He slimed me."
58416,2,"Genius, Tom....Genius","This album happened to be my first Tom Waits experience, almost two years ago to this day. At first I thought that this album was far too deranged for me. I had sampled it online and listened only to the first track, which is deranged, to say the least. Then I listened to the rest of an album (a friend lent it to me). All I can say is that this album is simply beautiful. It covers so many different moods. It has a very melodic few songs, such as All the World is Green, and Coney Island Baby. It has some really haunting ballads, like Another Man's Vine, and The Part You Throw Away. Other songs are downright odd, such as Misery is the River of the World, God's Away on Business, and Starving in the Belly of a Whale. All in all, this is a very versatile album, a masterpiece in its own right. Kudos, Tom, you sexy beast."
58418,2,Would recommend,Some pieces get stuck into the board and take a lot of coaxing to get out. But otherwise very study construction.
58475,2,Love the film:,"I have seen the film in theaters and about a hundred times on DVD. I beleive it to be the very best film on dvd. Ps. HEY DUDE WHO WROTE THAT SAMURAI IS INNCORECT AND BUSHI IS CORRECT IS WRONG, BUSHI WAS THE SAMURAI'S NAME BEFORE THEY WENT INTO SERVICE OF THE EMPEROR, SAMURAI ""TO SERVE"" MEANS TO SERVE THE EMPEROR, READ UP ON YOUR HISTORY BEFORE MAKING SUCH ALIGATIONS.ANYWAYS best dang movie of all time 5 out of 5."
58563,2,Excellent Adaptation of a Great Novel,"This is a well acted, well presented adaptation of Ayn Rand's wonderful novel of individual rights. Ayn Rand herself wrote the screenplay and it is presented with the same style as her writing. While this style may not be for everybody her message definitely is. At a time when our rights are under brutal attack from our own government, Ayn Rand's works are more important than ever. This movie adaptation will help to remind Americans of why we are Americans and what this country stands for. I urge everyone to not only watch this film, but get as many of your friends and neighbors to watch it as well. Then readAnthemandAtlas Shruggedto see exactly where we will end up if we stay on the road to statism that Obama is leading us down."
58581,2,A Good Action Movie!,A very good movie. The karate and combat action in the movie are unrivaled anywhere. Our hero participates in a tournament where the best fighter wins. During this tournament you see some very original and unique fighting styles. Our hero battles through several elimination rounds and finally makes the championship round. In the championship round he fights the reigning champion and the champion is a monster. As far as movie karate matches it is a classic. Our hero Van Damme finally emerges the victor but not after he goes through a tough fight. This is a top line and exciting action film.See this movie anf you will not be dissapointed.
58602,2,Manly steel tissue box cover,"The reflective cover has good weight, looks manly & keeps my Kleenex box firmly planted. Also can be used as a mirror, self defense or to signal rescue aircraft in case of emergency."
58690,2,So much going on..... Wild ride...,"A real trashing of the realm, and more to come! Started watching the show on HBO and when the season ended I could not stop.... Huge books with so much going on, great ride!"
58697,2,"Really good, but just short of great","I guess most of the hate has to do is this came out in 2005, and fans were promised the second half of this book about a year later, well Dance with Dragons didnt come out until 6 years later. Of the 4 I have read, I would rank this last (3,1,2,4), but it is still a really good read. 4/5. There are some slow parts, but there are some jaw dropping moments and yeah you dont see all the characters you might like, but that is what the next book is for. Ignore the hate of all the fan boys, it is a good read and a must if you enjoyed the first 3 books."
58727,2,Tale Of The Body Thief,"Book arrived in excellent condition. It arrived on time. It is an excellent read, keeps you on the edge of your seat."
58849,2,Electro-Acoustic Pop,"We were not prepared for this. From the stable of one of the most respected experimental music labels around charges this mythical, unexplainable record. Presocratics operate in a realm of absolute liminality, hazy, barely there, yet somehow fully cathartic, forging a sound perfectly synchopated to resemble haphazard emotion. There are slight references, one direct relative in all those fragile Gastr del Sol records, but for the most part this is a new beast...not necessarily transmissions from the outer space, the Other, but emissions from what you hope is, and are terrified might be, residing inside your most inner space, your heart and soul. Electro-acoustic pop for reckless dreamers. Beautiful."
58860,2,Fun Kid's Book,"This is such a fun book to read. It is about Pokey, the bear from the zoo in San Francisco, who runs away and gets caught and brought back more than once. It is especially fun if you buy it along with the cassette or CD. They are sold at Adventist Book Centers new. I'm sure they are sold other places as well."
58866,2,measuring cup,Easy to grip handle. Measurements are clear and easy to read. Good product. The lid with the hole is perfect for pouring pancake batter. The lip also seals batter for making when the rest of the family gets up. It is wide enough to use my egg beater to whip cream.
58936,2,Asimov's Least Favorite Book Is Still A Good Read,"this was asimov's least favorite book, however I think it is a good novel. I don't like the extra plot adout the secret document and it dosn't fit the story but this one detail should not overshadow the rest of the novel. many of the characters are very steriotypical and fit into certain cliche's but then again they are also intersting I recomend this book. to anyone who has not read this they should not listen to the critism and pave their own veiw of this book bby just picking it up and reading it"
58958,2,Wonderful DVD,This is a wonderful movie. Mr. Morgan Freeman is wonderful in nearly every movie I've ever seen him in. He's a great actor. Ms Jessica Tandy is the same. Together Mr. Freeman and Ms Tandy are superb in Driving Miss Daisy. I love the charming southern accents and the lovely backgrounds. The house used in this movie is beautiful. I enjoyed this movie and am wearing it out from watching it so much. I will certainly replace it if I ever need to. It's that great!!! And worth every penny I paid for it. I will treasure it.
59134,2,worried for nothing:),"i was really worried after sisqo's last solo project that dru hill would be done. they needed a really strong album to bounce back from that mess and they did it:)i bought this cd with nervousness hoping it was great and it was. like they never missed a beat from thier last album. if you heard the second sisqo album you would share my concern after that i didnt know if anyone would take them serious again, but the bottom line is they did it, they put out a great album and a great single and they showed that they truely deserve success. if you like dru hill go get this you wont be disappointed. and I am pretty sure now, dru hill isnt going anywhere:)"
59139,2,So many great examples. Beautiful Pictures and great explaination,This book is well written and includes awesome pictures. I am excited to try my first and subsequent cake decorating adventures from its pages.
59157,2,Best Scraper Spatula!,Look no further! This is yet again another superb silicone spatula by KitchenAid. The large handle makes it easy to get a firm grip on it when you are stirring or scraping. The silicone spatula is flexible but not flimsy. It will not melt or fray and it couldn't be easier to clean. Don't bother trying to lick the bowl because you won't miss a drop of anything with this spatula. Very Highly recommended! A+!
59198,2,"A masterpiece that has aged like a bottle of red, a bottle of white...","Where did all the great songwriters go? It was astonishing, after all these years, to hear one great song after another, with arguably, one filler, instead of the other way around! If you like good old analog sound, you'll love this, especially ""Only The Good Die Young"". I don't care how many times you've heard ""Don't Go Changin'"" in your life, it is stunningly beautiful in SACD. A C.D. to die young for. The Piano Man, indeed."
59233,2,AN AMERICAN CLASSIC,THIS MOVIE IS A CLASSIC AND SHOULD BE MADE REQUIRED VIEWING FOR ALL SCHOOLS TO GIVBE A LESSON ON PERSEVERANCE HOPE FINALLY FULFILLED. THIS IS ANOTHER MOVIE THAT I WOULD RECOMMEND TO ANYONE
59308,2,One of my favorite teen comedies,"No, it's not in the same league as, say, ""The Breakfast Club."" But, I've always liked this movie for its heart. There is some senseless nudity. My favorite scenes, however, are the scenes between Sue (Kristy Swanson) and Alvin (Sasha Jenson). They are cute together. I've only seen Sasha Jenson in one other movie. It's a pity - I really liked him in this. Alvin is a lovable nerd. It had been a while since I'd seen it; it was good to see it again."
59372,2,works well with senior citizen classes if supplemented,"My senior citizen students, who are all college graduates, find this book appealing because of its practicality. It has reading/conversation selections as well as grammar. We meet only one hour a week at the senior center, and this book works well as long as I supplement it with material they request as we progress. Irene Hechler M.A.Spanish/Middlebury"
59376,2,LIfe Saver,I purchased this for use with jeans. The zipper puller works great. The button puller works with lighter buttons but not with the big brass buttons on jeans
59402,2,Augustine is great!,"Saint Augustine is spiritual, philosophical and always profound.Warning: Likely to blow your mind."
59415,2,Best PC Magainze - just wish they'd make a kindle-only edition,"I've been a reader for over 4 years, and their magazine is simply the best PC magazine available. The only downside is that they use a service like coverleaf for their digital version, which is so behind the times they offer no Android app, and they offer no digital-only subscriptions. I'm no 'tree-hugger' but I prefer to cut down on paper and clutter, and cut down on the stuff I end up throwing in the trash. I have an Android tablet on which I read a lot of things now, and I'd love to be able to subscribe to Maximum PC in a digital-only version, but it appears that is not something that is available. For a magazine that is cutting-edge, you'd think they'd have it available. The lack of a digital-only subscription is the only reason I give it 4 out of 5 stars. Content of the magazine and the website are both great, so they get HUGE points for that. If they had a digital only subscription I'd certainly give it 5-stars."
59498,2,Fun Night,I bought two of these. One to replace the set my mother-in-law had forever. The other for my family since we loved it so much. It has brought countless hours of fun. Just reading the facts on the cards is a game in itself.This is something young and old alike will enjoy.
59550,2,keep em comin',"even though they are all ""B"" songs from the self titled album and Toxicit, who cares this CD is still awesome!"
59655,2,I wouldn't use cloth diapers if not for these liners!,"There are lots of liners for cloth diapering out there, but this is the only one I know of that is washable. I can wash them about 4-5 times before they start to fall apart. If you are using cloth to save money, then this is the way to go."
59671,2,Has Strengths and Weaknesses,"I agree with a previous review that stated that TP questions have been getting successively easier with each TP release. The Millennium Edition doesn't seem to break that trend. Not that that is necessarily a bad thing: it allows more of the family to have fun playing.The GOOD: New set of questions, nice playing board.The BAD: Card holder is too small and awkward. (Gimme back the box!)The UGLY: Pie wedges are translucent, making them tough to distinguish in low light.If the new questions were offered without the board, I'd give them 5 stars. As it is, I'd only recommend the Millennium Edition if you don't already have a previous release of the game, or you're in need of a fresh question set."
59706,2,love it,"This is a great book for beginning piano players. I use it with my students that range from age 6-12, and get great results. I'm amazed at how quickly they are learning."
59726,2,"volumes I and volume II , yes II","I have had this soundtrack ever since the movie was released and I have been attracted to the soundtrack as well as the movie. Sorry to say I would love to see the long version everyone is talking about ( please e-mail me if you have any info about it....) There is a volume 2 in cd.... It is an import "" LEGRAND BLEU volume II "" I found it in a music store on the Island of St. Martin and could not pass it up. It was a Great Find...... Use my posted e-mail address OR: DIOTALE@YAHOO.COM"
59736,2,Good reading,Has some relivant topics. I'm always interested in hearing about IRA's and 401k's. Good reading for the novice.
59751,2,great inspiration for writers,"This movie features well-realized characters and a mood reminiscent of The Last Picture Show; regret and innocence lost saturate the sepia screenplay. Ryan, Quaid, Caan and Paltrow are all in excellent form, and are not only believable but expertly demonstrate palpably injured humans. It is a film I return to, for inspiration as a writer. Thomas Newman's soundtrack also sets the proper melancholy mood. Love this film!"
59863,2,Sideburn Club Mix is a great cd,"this cd is awesome. all the songs were great remixes . this is the only lupin cd i own, but even though i havent heard the other ones, i think this a great cd."
59927,2,Aaaaasss yooooou wiiiiiiiish!,This movie is great! You will not hate! It will bring you no haaarm. It is full of chaaarm. This review must be 20 woooords. That is for the biiirds!
59961,2,Powerful...very big and very powerful,"I'll argue this to my grave... Stigmata was an AWESOME, awesome story. And the movie couldn't have done a better job portraying this difficult issue. Arquette and Byrne were great. Arquette being the typical victim of the 90's era and Byrne living a pastoral, quiet life. Reviewers keep comparing this film to the Exorcist. It couldn't be more different. Stigmata is much more amazing then the Exorcist ever could have been. The Exorcist deals with the devil...yeah yeah yeah... so do a lot of movies. Stigmata deals with God. God dominates over Satan-so who dominates over God? NOTHING! And that's what makes this movie stand above the rest. It's creepy, it's frightening and it's almost comforting in a way. See it! If you don't like it-oh well, but it deserves to be seen...and thought about..."
60010,2,Corrections to Amazon's synopsis,"I would endorse the earlier positive reviews of what I believe to be one of the finest anti-war films ever made but I have to add that it would help if the Amazon editorial review of the film were at least accurate. David Chute's text refers to the war as 'grinding to a close'. The action is in fact set on the Taman Peninsula in late 1943. The ghastliness of the Eastern Front was to rumble on for at least another year-and-a-half. Also he refers to the German 'martinet' played by James Mason. This is quite wrong - Mason's role is that of world-weary, sympathetic and supportive commanding officer. The villain of the piece is Maximilian Schell's Captain Stransky. And such a shame that the summary focuses on one disturbing scene two-thirds of the way through the film when there are so many well orchestrated combat scenes and philosophical confrontations throughout the story."
60037,2,This pillow is just what I was looking for,"If you want a firm pillow this is for you. I had a Niken pillow for about 10 years. It was my favorite, but it wore out. I looked to buy another, but they no longer made the style I liked and the new style that company makes now is different. I tried the isocool gusseted side sleeper and it is a quality product, but not perfect. This pillow took a little getting used to. It is firm, but the ""notch"" is really comfortable in the neck and shoulder area. I have a neck injury and this pillow really helps me to be comfortable while sleeping."
60064,2,Vogue....,"What can I say....Great product. I am happy with how fast I got it. I got the Sept. issue. Which is there largest. I have not gotten the Oct. issue, which I am a little worried about. I am not sure what's gone wrong there. I have already seen Oct. on the stands. Other then that, I do like Amazon for ordering Mags....M.C."
60089,2,Great for teaching turn-play,"This is a good toy to teach your child turn-play. The quality of the material is okay. There are extra cherries now in the box(there were negative reviews in the past about this). The size is right, the colors are vibrant, durability is just fine. But again, its value comes from its easiness to teach turn-play. Children gave a better reaction to waiting and taking turns while playing Cherry-O when compared to playing with Candyland. A little pricey but all similar toys are around this price."
60172,2,"Come, release it already","Hey, what is Sony waiting to release it, come one we are dying to buy it!!!!!"
60274,2,scream 4,Great Fun.The Ending is a bit weak (for a Wes Craven Film)Ive watched this a bunch of times already.
60326,2,BOOK LIVES UP TO THE REST,"This was a great story. Artemis lives up to expectaions, and even sheds light on a side you never thought. Then just when you think you know Jarlaxle he throws in a grand new surprise that keeps you bitting your nails until the next release. I can only hope that the sea of swords takes off where this one leaves. Servant of the shard is a must for any fantasy colletor, not to mention any fan of Jarlaxle, and his Bregan D'aerthe."
60367,2,Big Hit,"I bought this for my grandson's second birthday and as soon as he saw it he went ballistic. My daughter said he probably would have slept with if they would have let him. BTW, I also ride a red motorcycle. : )"
60407,2,A Musical Vehicle to Try Something New,"I believe that this was a very good album, it captured the mood of the concerts. The album may seem slow to some people, but these are the people that claim to have gone to a Led Zeppelin concert but never actually did. The actual concerts had slow spots that led to strong, loud spots. All of those out there that put down this album just don't realize what Led Zeppelin was about, I guess you just have to be a fan!"
60497,2,Pretty Good CD.,"I first heard the whole CD on a local radio station one night, the show was ""Nighttracks"", it was about 3am, couldn't sleep, turned on the radio, and there it was, it seems like I had not a worry in the world, I got a cold beer, and chilled(relaxed). Ronnie Laws smooth horn sound, the nice spring breeze, & the stars that morning, along with total peace and quiet, that's a morning I'll never forget. So later that day I had to order that cd (this is when it came out in '87). Ronnie put the CD together. My favorite is ""From a Glance"", AHHHHH NICE! If you like smooth jazz, I recommend this one. It's out of print, so if you find it, it's worth buying. Enjoy."
60502,2,indoor magic,"After researching indoor grills for quite a while, I ordered this Zojirushi grill. It has an amazing heavy weight non-stick surface. Even the stickiest of marinades will ease off with soap and water. I was worried that a product without some kind of water catch basin would flare and smoke. There was a bit of steam, but nothing like it would be if you seared the same piece of meat in a grill pan. We live in a Senior community that does not allow outdoor grills. This little gem is the answer...it is not a replacement for a gas grill, but the next best thing for anyone in the same situation."
60595,2,Great starter,"This was a great starter kit! I got it because it was cheaper than most, and if I didn't like it, I would be out that much money. It was super easy to set up and was easy to ass a z-wave compatible remote I already had to it also. For the price you can't beat it!!"
60673,2,Brilliant,A absolutly brilliant film. Enhanced for proper 16:9 widescreen format the picture quality and sound are excellent. A long film but never boring. I found it gripping with a great script and film layout. I would recomend everyone buying this on DVD.
60719,2,best racing game there ever was,If you are looking for a great racing game this would have been the best. But last month Ea closed it so the game no longer exsists so keep looking
60729,2,Book was enjoyable and a good read,"I have just recently become the owner of a grey thoroughbred, the information about this racing great was of interest to me and i found the book informative and enjoyable -"
60771,2,A must-read for all parents of ADD/ADHD children!,"This is a wonderful resource for parents struggling to understand why thier ADD/ADHD kids do the things they do. Especially as a mother, it helped relieve the guilt I feel, wondering what I did wrong. (Answer: nothing, this truly is a medical condition!) This book will help explain the physiological aspects in understandable terms and provide helpful tips & strategies for your family."
60784,2,i'm a prince fan,i'm a prince fan and this was the movie that made me one. i have purple rain in a number of formats but the HD DVD of purple rain has the best picture and sound of a purple rain video i have ever seen or heard. as soon as the price of BD players drop to below $100 i will buy the blue ray version.
60810,2,PUT IT IN YOUR CART NOW.,"I am probably on my third or fourth time through Covey's book, and each time through I make another connection. He not only has very important things to say, he also says them all very well. His models are easy to conceptualize and can make a lasting impact on your life if you are willing to make a few changes. I honestly wish I could be better at following Covey's map. When I do, I am very happy! My prediction: If you buy this book and are serious about improving your life, relationships, work, family, etc, you will read this book many times. Definitely a bargain."
60822,2,"effective, somewhat","I enjoyed listening to the tape series of '7 Habits of Highly Effective People'. The seven habits described are very true to be present within an individual to succeed in any endevor of life. However, I do feel that Steven Covey doesn't describe enough on how to obtain these 7 habits so they are lasting as a habit is. I do plan on reading the book '7 Habits of Highly Effective People' and maybe there are more tools on aquiring these habits."
60824,2,Excellent,"This is a very good RF & Microwave engineering book.It combines a clear explanation of the basics with aseries of new different kinds of devices (in chapters4, 7-13). This makes this book equally useful forstudents and for experienced engineers.This book also integrates the basic analysis of widerange of passive devices (reciprocal andnonreciprocal) with essential reference information inthe main text and in the Appendixes. In addition, aseries of important real applications with practicaldetails are included.I do give these book 5 stars because it does help youunderstand passive RF and microwave devices much better."
60839,2,the rols royce book of that sbject!,"there are many books on the topic juice book, and non of them that i have seen ,is coming near that book. this book is giving the reader the knoledge of the nutrition values, as well as the therapeutic aspects of each single fruit or vegetable, as well as for the mixed fruits and or vegetables as a healthy healing juices. there is also a section of diseases that are treated by specific fruits or vegetables juice combination.the reason of the healing properties for each juice is also explain in a very simple, and easy to understand,plus a small section that is telling you what kind of a juicer is the most suitable to your specific needs.in short, and in general, this book is a comprehansive yet simple and correct, and easy to follow book,and you have my best recommandation.i am on my way to the juicer."
60852,2,Bodium Stainless Steel 3-cup Coffee Press,"It took several tries to come up with the right combination of number of beans, how long to heat water in microwave,and how long to brew the beans to come with the perfect cup of coffee.I use 1 1/2 teaspoons of coffee.. heat the water for 3 1/2 minutes in microwave then let it brew for 4 minutes..PERFECT.Only gripe... I use a good size coffee cup.. and have to fill the press to the top to get ""1 full cup""...In no way will this make 3 cups. All the bitterness is taken out I never experienced such wonderful tasting coffee."
60859,2,entertaining,"I enjoyed the film. The story is nothing to write home about but it's clever enough. The cast is what makes it. Many folks here pan Andie MacDowell and I admit that I got the film inspite of her. But she was surprising good. I thought she and Depardieu had great chemistry and their odd-coupling was just absurd enough to work.I loved her apartment and that wonderful greenhouse! The other shots of New York are fun to see, particularly their hike across Central Park.All in all I thought the film held together well and it makes an entertaining two hours. (hated D's hair style though; he looked like Javier Bardem in No Country for old Men!)"
60890,2,Fantastic Bread Machine,"We are thrilled with the performance of this little bread machine. We just follow the instructions and have gotten excellent results on all five of the recipes we have tried. We choose the light crust setting, and the crust is very soft. We would recommend this product to anyone."
60894,2,NOT BAD FOR A 13 YEAR OLD,"I think that Domi did a great job with this book. For young gymnasts or fans, it is an inspiring story. Dominique starts from her young childhood describing her life both in the gym and out. She wrote the book when she was 13, and while it's not great, it is definitely good and worth reading."
61010,2,New Style Godz,"Every band on this cd is screamin'tight. KIDD ROCK is a Platinum Rock $ STAINE like a first tattoo, you want more. But KORN is all you need to know about music & the more KORN i hear the better it feels."
61095,2,Absolutely wonderful!,This jacket is just perfect! You won't be disappointed if your looking for a jacket that is stylish yet comfortable and warm at the same time. I get so many compliments on it and people want to know where I purchased it. They love it and so do I.
61121,2,So far awesome ! Shipped next day by OneCall!,"Delivery by OneCall was fantastic !! It was shipped the next day and I got the system the next day.Sounds incredible so far.The only problem I found is, if, for some reason, the system cannot decode the DVD audio, it does not switch the Input mode to 'Analog'. Hence, no audio signals are outputted. You have to manually switch the Input mode to 'Analog' from 'Auto' to get the audio in analog mode."
61297,2,They've done it again,"It's been 4 years. 4 YEARS since their last album!! I was on pins and needles waiting for the next album after the This Time Around tour...I was dying for more after that amazing work of art. But in true Hanson style, they took FOREVER to bring out new music. I had pretty much given up hope. Once in a while I'd check up on their status, always reading that they were in the studio, or having babies...but anyways, when I heard they were finally releasing something new, I was QUITE skeptical. Nothing could be worth it after four years, could it? I thought this album would be a big disappointment. However, it blew me away.There's nothing on this album not to like. It's slow, it's fast, some songs are catchy, some aren't. Amazing musicianship, amazing harmonies, amazing writing. ""Believe"" is the perfect way to end an album, it's truly poignant and penetrating. Boys, you did it again, you have surpassed any expectations I could have had."
61345,2,War right on time,"Great disc. Not five stars because I'm not a huge fan of emo. The great songs are Workforce..., Tomorrow I'll be you, Asleep in the Chapel, and This song is brought to you by a falling bomb. Quality purchase for a fan of good rock music."
61357,2,Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry,This book was very good. I enjoyed the tense and exciting parts such as Cassie having to say sorry to Miz Lillian Simms. I also likes the very end when white people helped put out the Logans fire. The Logans are black people and the color of your skin is the topic of this novel. This book mentions the starts and ends of friendships. I enjoyed this book very much and I would give it 5 stars.
61392,2,absolutely marvelous!,"this really captures the feeling of asimov's laws of robotics and provides an interesting glimpse of what happens when aliens are entered into the equation. Bravo, Leigh!"
61413,2,DVD TOTALLY WORTH BUYING,"This is a show that was performed at the Starland Ballroom in Sayerville, NJ on June 3, 2005. I was there, bought the t-shirt to prove it, and to this day it has been one of the greatest concerts I have ever been too. The boys sounded just as good as they did in the 80's, and seeing Joey back on stage with them was incredible. The pits were great, and the crowd was wild, but most of all Anthrax played exceptionally well. They opened up with Among The Living, and closed the night with I Am The Law. Do not miss out on buying this, it will be some of the best moeny you ever spend."
61460,2,An Important Writer,"Liss is exploring writing by finding his own style in a voice that takes one slightly back, but is in itself intellectually stimulating. I believe that his reputation will grow stronger with each book and the sum of his work will be thought of as an important body of work."
61485,2,Can't wait for the next book..,I definately can't wait for the next book! I picked up the first three books at a garage sale last year and finished them all within a matter of months. Then bought the fourth. I have been waiting none too patiently for the next book and plan to buy and read this one till it does come out! Hope it's as good as the others!
61489,2,neat idea,"these are great propped up in my son's crib. it gives him something to look at when he's hangin out in there. the cards are thick and quality material, as is the box they come in. i'm really happy with them, they're cute, quality and functional! great value at this price."
61548,2,Powerful,"I really enjoyed the entire message. It was a must hear for me, even thou thismessage is a few years old ...God is always on time."
61564,2,Surprise inside is a hit with our 8month old,Granson is 8 months and just loves this toy. Has it in his hands all the time. Loves to pull out the hidden objects and hear the crackling from the ears. Chews on it until some of the items are soaked; pulls hard on the peanuts - all have held up to his handling and chewing. He really loves the peanuts on the cords. All items are just the right size for his little hands.
61585,2,Filling in my collection of assembler books,"This isn't the best assembler book, but I was looking to fill in a collection, having been an assembler programmer. Good in its emphasis on using the emulator - who has access to a mainframe for learning purposes anymore?"
61607,2,Great tasting tea,We love this flavor of tea and cannot find it in stores. These large tea bags make more than one cup of tea.
61634,2,Telling Social Commentary,"This book is a fictionalized account of the true murders of Thomas Kinnear and his housekeeper (and mistress) Nancy Montgomery in a rural suburb of Toronto during the 1840's. It tells the story of Grace Marks, a simple housekeeper who was convicted of the murders along with Kinnear's stableboy James McDermott.The novel can be read as a murder mystery, but it is more satisfying as social commentary, especially in its comments on inequities of class and gender. Atwood has really done her homework: her writing is rife with the details of day-to-day life at the time, as well as the period's conventional wisdom regarding such topics as mesmerism, psychology, and the treatment of prisoners and the mentally ill. Grace is a fascinating --- if somewhat unbelievable --- character, but perhaps the story's strongest character is Mary Whitney, a tough but clever girl with wisdom beyond her years. I enjoyed this book a lot; the only disappointment was its artificially happy ending."
61641,2,Excellent.,"The excitement and musicianship heard on this album is absolutely amazing. Having just seen the band last night, I can honestly say this CD captures the energy and the ""in the moment"" feel of the live show. Be prepared to move!"
61658,2,Better than expected,I was worried about my purchase but overall I have no regrets. I had a professional put it together for me during my home theater setup so I am not sure if it would have been easy for me (being quite handy). We have been enjoying lot of movies on this screen and have had it for about 1.5years now it has been doing well so far.
61742,2,EXCELLENT!!!,"I AM A DANCER. I LIKE ALMOST ALL VARIATIONS OF DANCE. THIS WORKOUT GAVE ME SOMETHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY. WHEN I FIRST VIEWED IT, IT DIDN'T APPEAR TO BE A SUPER HARD WORKOUT SWEATWISE. IT'S NOT HIGH IMPACT , BUT IT IS CERTAINLY HIGH INTENSITY. I AM REALLY ENJOYING THIS. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE WHO ENJOYS DANCE."
61746,2,Wonderful Movie!,"This has to be not only one of the greatest romance movies ever made, but one the greatest movies of all time, period.I can't stop watching it, and I will end by saying that Garbo and Taylor have some of the best chemistry one will ever see."
61760,2,Best blues album of the 90's,"Chris Duarte is without equal in the world of blues rock today. His mastery of the guitar and incredible live shows are unbelievable. His sound is Stevie Ray Vaughan transformed. His music adds much more funk, punk and drive to that Texas blues sound. Duarte's songs have great feeling, and the louder the better. This is a must have for any blues fan. Check out the tracks ""My Way Down"", ""Scrawl"", and ""Big Legged Woman"", they are incredible!"
61885,2,Great fun with just a few problems,"This game is a lot of fun, challenging but not overly difficult like some games, and has a whole lot of different, varied levels to keep the experience exciting. Only a few of the levels are actually in the Castle, and that's probably good because it would get boring quickly if they all were set there. I'm not sure I like the first person perspective though. It works fine, and you get used to it, but it really made me quite dizzy after playing for a while due to the close up perspective and the heightened sense of movement that it results in. Also there are some really unbelievable glitches. I recall one where there is an enemy soldier on the other side of a window looking right out at you as you stand right in front of him, and he doesn't see you. (And no, it's NOT a one way window!) But I'm really enjoying the game nevertheless."
61917,2,BEST BOOK EVER!!,"When I first red this book, the adventure kept me reading. Personally I've always loved J.K. Rowlings books, but my favorite it this. My favorite part is when Hermione gets the time streaming device and goes back in time to save Sirius Black, I was really suprised when I figured out that Sirius Black was James Potter's friend, and Harry's Godfather. I think everyone should read this book, the suspence is amazing in this book."
61923,2,The Best Books I've Ever Read,The Harry Potter books are amazing. They are the best books I've ever read and whenever i read a book that is not part of the Harry Potter series I dont like it as much as I no I would have if I hadn't had such high expectations. So all i do is wait for the next Harry Potter book to come out so i can read another great book that will last me until the next one comes out. The only thing i'd like Rowling to do is write a little faster!
61938,2,A fabulous story for a person of any age!,"I'm 14, and I'm not ashamed to say that I read this book, as well as the other two in the series. I think ""Harry Potter"" is great for any reader, be it a young child or a parent. As it is, my 12 year old brother and 43 year old mother are also enchanted by the stories. They draw you in with Harry's tales of adventure, and they're so funny, especially Dobby in the second story. Beware, though: once you've started reading Harry Potter, you're hooked and you wait on pins and needles until the next book arrives in stores."
62018,2,Love it!!,I love the foot pedal. The only problem I've had is that it doesn't fit the pedal of my Winstar. That was a bit of a disappointment.
62042,2,"So far, so good!","I love this tea kettle. It whistles (very loudly) to let me know the water is ready. I've kept all tea kettles I've previously owned on the stove when not in use. And when you cook, it tends to pick up every splatter! This tea kettle is very easy to clean and looks just like new! I love it and would definitely purchase again!"
62057,2,the definitive guide to single malts,"I actually purchased this book in a sweater shop in Fort William. It was the one book that the distillery blenders and everday whisky fans continuously recommended. I started to take notes in the margins each time I tried a new single malt. The descriptions are brief, but the coverage is rather comprehensive. The rankings for sweetness and peatiness, though I often disgaree with them, are helpful in selecting new things to try--if I like one that is a 7/3, I can look for other 7/3 rankings in the book. I always take this along with me when I head to the whisky shop. Highly recommended for anyone who is serious about single malt scotch."
62059,2,I knew the outcome but I couldn't put this book down!,"I loved this book. The author is a master at setting a variety of stages and allowing you to experience the events he describes in a fairly non-technical manner. More than anything I gained a great appreciation for the visions and lifework of Mr Momsen. I am left in awe of his contribution to society - I knew of him, but never realized his mark on our lives was so significant."
62073,2,These guys are incredible!,Everyone needs to check these guys out.. they are amazing in the studio and live...
62176,2,the stand up is great,chris rock is one of the best comedians around and this cd proves why the No Sex In the Champaign Room song wasn't all that good like everyone thinks but I really like this CD
62288,2,Great First Game for Toddlers!!,"Of all the games we own, this is by far the best for my almost 2 year old and 3 1/2 year old children! After the initial matching of animals to haystacks, set-up is minimal each time you play.Play can range from just placing the farmer on and singing Old McDonald had a Farm or placing an animal on the stand and hearing their sounds(for really young children) to a challenging game of memory for older kids. AND, unlike some of our other toys and games where the song can drive you crazy, this one is EASY to turn off. Just take the pieces off the electronic part, and the noise stops!!If we need a present we know a child would enjoy, this is always the game we buy! All of our friends have been equally impressed!"
62334,2,Downton Abbey Season 1 (HD),Downton Abbey Season 1 (HD) Excellent series. Enjoyed the story line very much. Very entertaining. Would recommend this show to anyone..
62391,2,comedy,Dennis the Menace is a classic comedy about a kid who gets in a lot of trouble. And him and his neighbor have a rivalry against each other. And dennis ends up having to live with him.This is a joyous comedy with many twists and turns that happen.
62401,2,A word about 'Parting Glances' Format...,"A fantastic portrait of gay NYC life in the late 80's, and a timeless testament to the strength of friendship and allure of New York City.My only gripe? It's not letterboxed. Does anyone know why?Besides that, it's a good clean image of an uplifting and inspired film. I was pretty young when I first saw this on cable in the eighties, and it had a profound influence on my life then. I decided that I wanted to live my life the way the characters in this film did. And you know what? I'm thirty four now and I AM living life much like they do in this film.Now that's inspired filmmaking!Steve Buscemi is a marvel, in one of his first film roles. The soundtrack by Bronski Beat still thrills. And New York looks mighty fine. Oh, and the men are none too shabby in the looks department either.Check it out."
62441,2,clever puzzle,"this movie is a very clever puzzle consisting of many flashes real and subconcious that tie together. if you are able to tie this puzzle pieces together you will get enormous satisfaction with the movie. if not ask somebody to explain:)trust though, this movie makes perfect sense!"
62469,2,Dryly humorous and very readable.,A funny look at one couple's attempt to resettle in a different culture with little forewarning. They were amazingly resilient and resourceful.
62536,2,The funniest sheep on TV,"More great episodes of ""Shaun the Sheep."" These have the uncut versions and are a bit longer than the ones shown on Disney Channel. What a hilarious sheep!"
62540,2,Wonderful book,"I got this book as a used, library book from amazon and I was not familiar with Mr. Dunnes writings but love his show on court tv. I usually only read autobios and bios, so I was somewhat unsure of the read but the author has a wonderful style of writing and imagery. I really enjoyed this book of three novels."
62620,2,Best for the Price,I just bought this LCD TV and I think it's great for the price. Experts may have gadgets to measure different kinds of things to see the performance of this TV but I only have one...my eyes. The images in this TV are very good. And that's all that matters isn't it? Except of course that I got a pretty good price for it for less than $1150! About the remote...I don't have any problems with it...yet. I can't say for sure the reliability of this brand so Im keeping my fingers crossed.
62687,2,Works as described,"This works as described and solved our problem; we have a projector in one room and the blu-ray player 50 feet away in another room. Followed the directions, charged the batteries, put it in place, and it just works. Rock on!"
62718,2,Great Replacement,I have an older Waterpik model WP-20W. My last jet tip broke last month and I looked everywhere for the replacement. I found that this model had been discontinued years ago and Waterpik no longer stocked the jet tips. The WP-20W works like new & I hated to throw it away for lack of jet tips. I was thrilled to have found these replacements on Amazon and they work great with no problems. Plus they will extend my use of my Waterpik for several years.
62741,2,Entertaining,"I found this book to be very entertaining. I would definetly recommend this book to every woman who enjoys riding motorcycles. Thank-you Shirley for putting this together, I have enjoyed your latest book."
62819,2,"Overall Good, but with a few Bad Songs mixed in","Jean-Michel Jarre did a good job on this album. It has two really good songs, Chrono. 2 and Chrono. 4, and one really bad song, Chrono. 7. But the whole album fits together as a whole and sounds good."
62862,2,I listen to this every day on my drive,This is an abridged version of the book and provides an excellent selection of the primary lessons. The actor's voice is great; it sounds like the voice of a middle aged man would have sounded in the 1950's when the book was written. If you liked the book I strongly suggest you purchase this recording.
62868,2,Amazing.,"In a world where awards can't be bought by Pepsi or 14-year-old girls, this would be the record of the year. Passionate, inventive, and full of surprises, Wilco again transcends genres to deliver something completely fresh."
62879,2,Evelyn Keyes bio,"This is the second part of Evelyn Keyes' biography. The first part is Scarlett O'Hara's Little Sister. You should read that one first for some of the incidents and comments in the second book to make sense. An interesting, chatty, gossipy look at the life of an actress in Hollywood of the 30's and 40's. And how did she put up with Artie Shaw all those years?? Recommended for old movie buffs."
62931,2,Hocus Pocus,This is one is a favorite of my wife and I. Both watched it as kids and now get to watch in better quality.
62961,2,Pleasantly Surprised!,"This CD surprised me. I really didn't think I would like it however, I actually have come to like several tracks on the CD...at least 5-6 of them. The songs remind of Gerald Levert as well as a little bit of R. Kelly. Ruben is R&B with a bit of a hip hop flair. The CD has got a nice groove to it...probably for 30-40+ crowd versus the real young audience...which is kind of refreshing to me. However, a friend of mine who is 22 and a huge Ruben fan really liked it. She's the one who turned me onto it and I am 38. If you like R&B (like the sounds of R. Kelly and Gerald Lavert with a bit of hip hop) then I think you will be pleasantly surprised with this CD. If you are a big POP fan which Ruben is not, then this is probably not for you. Ruben said during American Idol that his music would be more R&B and that it is."
63029,2,Another great helping of Chicken Soup,"I have yet to read a bad Chicken Soup book, and this one is no exception. The nice mix of stories make for an entertaining and interesting read, and there are life lessons to be gained from reading every single story.This book is not just for teens. Anyone who loves Chicken Soup type stories will enjoy this book. It tugs at the heart strings and is a book you'll want to re-read again and again."
63063,2,The Sound Of Music,This is a awesome soundtrack it is fun and enjoyable to listen to. the best songs on this soundtrack are all of them. if you have not listened to this soundtrack then i recommend you do
63071,2,Fast and flawless,The item came quickly and was exactly how it was described. It was also about 30% of the best price I found at local stores. Thanks.
63104,2,"An instant calmer, that works just like laugh gas","""Mezzanine"" is the most satisfing album by Massive Attack so far. It makes you feel a lot more calmer (but not sleepier) after listening to it. My favourite track is ""Dissolved Girl"", which is just so beautiful and makes you want to cry. I also must say that ""Group Four"" was brilliant. So, for conclution: who needs Tricky in the band whilst this album gives you the most pleasing trip-hop music package of all time?!"
63188,2,Why Isn't this a Movie???,Grattan has been writing and rewriting the Mexican-American experience for decades -- and far more eloquently than anyone on the literary scene. Why hasn't Hollywood scooped up this fabulous book??? It's about time!Kelly Hayes-RaittLivingLargeInLimbo.comAmazon.com/author/KellyHayes-Raitt
63224,2,The Count,"I am a Monte Cristo fan and I have all versions but one - the Richard Chamberlain version (anyone wanting to sell?) - and I rate this as good, although highlighting different parts of the original story. A fantastic and entertaining film."
63295,2,This is great!,"I have used a lot of different water/fluid containers and this one is BY FAR the best. It seals tight and does not leak no matter how much it gets shaken about. But, best of all, it has a suction top with a plastic straw into the base of the bottle so it is easy to take a drink from when I am driving. Also, this makes it great to carry in my backpack because it DOES NOT leak. It comes apart easily and I run it through the dishwasher after about every fifth or sixth use. So far, it is standing up great. I will buy several more in a couple of months, just to ensure I have enough on hand to last for a full week."
63322,2,Exposes the Chomsky Propaganda Model in Action,"I hand this book out to friends an acquaintances on a regular basis, most not really knowing the actual state of journalism in this country. Most end up appalled. The few that aren't are only looking at this through ideological blinders and insist this is yet just another example of liberal bias in the press. Read Dean Baker's blog called Beat The Press at CEPR dot net for a daily dose of the media distortions of economic information. It is amazing. How does a democracy survive when so much information is hidden and perverted?"
63364,2,Essential for any Calculus course,"In Calculus I, I was taught using computer programs how to solve Calculus problems but never actually learned Calculus. This put me in a tough spot when I had to start Calculus II and didn't know what I was doing. In this course we weren't allowed to use calculators and everything I learned in Calculus I became useless. Fortunately, I came across this book and I was able to teach myself Calculus in a matter of days. I also tried several other Calculus supplements and the only one I can recommend is ""How To Ace Calculus"" and its sequel for anyone taking Calc II & III. Whether you're dumping a fortune into an education on brushing up on some old math this book is the only supplement you need."
63392,2,Have a FULL box of kleenex ready,"I knew this movie was suppose to be a ""tear jerker"", I wasn't prepared for the magnitude of it. Having said that, I should also say it really made me think. As Keaton resolves his feelings about his life and how he's lived it, I learned a lot about my own. Sounds corny but I think I came away a better person after watching this one."
63394,2,Don't ask . . .,"This film demonstrates on a grand scale how the marriage of business and ethics often ends in divorce court. While in a capitalist economy we expect visionaries to be self-serving, the story of Enron shows how easily vision is corrupted by greed. And when greed has its day, there is nothing sacred but money and lots of it.Whether or not Enron's Lay and Skillings are found guilty of illegalities, the film shows their breach of ethics undeniable. It also shows how greed at the top of a corporation works its way down to the front lines, where recordings of traders' phone calls reveal the ruthless, gleeful creation of an energy crisis in California, where none existed.The DVD has many special features to provide additional food for thought, ranging from articulate interviews with investigative reporter Bethany McLean to some silliness form the Firesign Theater. Well worth watching."
63456,2,Best sheets I've ever had!,"We ordered the king sized set... They fit the bed very well, the have a great color. They wash up well. They are cool to sleep under, especially in Arizona. They are very soft... Love the sateen feel. I would recommend these sheets to anyone!"
63494,2,Great Gift,Purchased this as a Christmas gift. The series on PBS was outstanding and know the recipient will love it. Too bad America doesn't have the quality of actors that the British seem to produce at every turn.
63517,2,Darn good little mouse,"I usually dont' care/think about stuff like mice, but I have to say this little guy is the MOST comfortable mouse I've ever used. Nice contours, supports the hand well and great button feel. In addition, it has NEVER had syncing problems (in contrast with my logitech mice, which lose connection all the time) and has a nice antenna storage slot on the bottom of the mouse which also turns the mouse off. Plus, takes only ONE AA battery which has lasted for a really long time. Try it, you'll like it."
63549,2,Excellent Product,"This product is excellent. It is inexpensive compared to my original wireless mouse. No setup, other than plugging it into the USBport, is required. I highly recommend it."
63568,2,Granddaughter needed for school!,I chose this rating as it is the book that my granddaughter needed for school. She is in the culinary arts program at her high school. This book was required reading for her class. I would recommend this book for anyone taking culinary arts in high school.
63600,2,Criminal Justice.,This is the best book I have read on Criminal Justice. It is fun to read and easy to enjoy. I advise anybody that is interested on the field of criminal justice to begin with this book.
63660,2,awesome!,this is an awesome cd but i still do think that hybrid theory wuz betterbest songs are:somewhere i belonglying from youbreaking the habit
63698,2,Dreams from my Father,"Very insightful book. This book reveals a lot about President Obama's world view, how he came to these and why he wants to make changes in the US. I respect this understanding of self and the world around us, it is deeply thoughtful and helps us to fully understand the work he is doing. Great read."
63717,2,Their best,"The time apart must've helped; Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart have made the best album of their association together. In place of the sometimes tiresome histrionics Lennox would go into when singing in the past, you get vocals here that sound assured and full, brash when called for and moving and soulful the rest of the time. The songs are SONGS, thank goodness, and the arrangements take full sonic advantage of your ears without pummeling them into chutney. This is one of the best albums of 1999."
63761,2,This is Ravi's Kid's review,"Hi, I didn't read this book. Still, I know that this book will be good,because Clinton is good. I like clinton, so I like this book. I'm a Kid, how else do you expect me to write. Isn't this short and sweet.[...]"
63962,2,Great stuff but the cap keeps falling off,It is great tool but the cap keeps falling off. It has nevertheless given great images for the last year.
63965,2,Scorpion King does rule actionwise....,"I had eerie thoughts when I went to the theatre to see ""Scorpion King"" Flashbacks of ""Conan The Destroyer"" came to mind but I still wanted to see actress Kelly Hu who comes from my hometown of Hawaii. Aiside from the usual pace and storyline the movie was actually pretty good!. ""The Rock's"" acting abilty wasnt bad. A Lot different as portrayed in ""The Mummy Returns"" though. Action sequences got me going ""Whoa!"" I do look foward to seeing it again once more."
63985,2,not adaptable,"I bought this grinder as part of a total coffee upgrade for my kitchen. Unfortunately, not all the pieces were Gaggia, and the portafilter for my Saeco espresso maker would not fit the doser bracket. The grinder did a fine job with the coffee, but I returned it because I couldn't use it in my kitchen. I would have appreciated knowing before hand that the doser would only hold a specific size espresso portafilter baskets. Buyer beware."
64040,2,best book ever,I read this book for a book report for my reading class. It was awesome! The gripping plot keeps you craving for more. I loved it! I would reccomend this book to anyone who ebjoys reading about the Holocaust. Another book like this is Daniel's Story.
64053,2,The bedding is comfortable but the strap hurts!,"The shoes are cute and worth the purchase. I have some positives and negatvies with these shoes.Positives:1) The shipping came in within the estimated time.2) The shoe looks exactly as pictured. They are really cute.3) The design of the shoe makes the foot appear smaller.4) Shoe is great for people that have wide feet.Negatives:1) Although the bedding of the shoe is soft and cushioned, the strap/buckle that goes across the toes hurts! The plastic is too hard against the toes and digs in every time you take a step. It pinches the toes. Hopefully I will wear these shoes in so the plastic won't hurt anymore. I think Dr. Scholls should have kept in mind comfort when making the strap that goes over the feet as well (not just the bedding of the shoe).2) Shoe runs a bit small. I had to order half a size up to get the right fit. I usually wear a 8-8.5 but had to order a 9 because that is all they had left."
64159,2,IGGY POP SAVED MY SOUL!,"This album is a snarling, sneering, ageless fist of defiant, punk rock poetry.In this time of glossy, flossed, supermodel, shrink wrapped,over produced shallow pop, ""BEAT 'EM UP"" supplies a much needed kick in the gut.Iggy Pop has made a album that truly needed to be made. Viva La Iggy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
64285,2,Zoom!,"This is a really good drama with a little bit of laughter, a lot of drama, and speeding cars. The thing the bad guys do with a railroad cargo car is well done. It could have been a very dangerous thing for all in the scene. I am really impressed. I highly reccomend it. Jackie Chan rocks! Ah! I mean Jacki speeds through this one with 5+ stars."
64304,2,Surprising quality for the price,"There were many complaints on this product buyt I decided to gamble and order it. EXCELLENT DECISION! This arrived in excellent condition with no damage. The inner package that held the screws broke open during transit, which caused me to have to play ""Find the screw"" in all the packing materials, but this is not fault of the vendor. It seems UPS beat it up pretty well in transit.There is a distinct smell, but that faded in a day or two and is now not noticable.I am quite pleased with the product."
64347,2,Top Notch Quality,"I purchased this for a gift!When I received it, I was so happy with how they handled the package!It was wrapped nicely and was all in tacked.The frame and the size was exactly how they described it.It was even more gorgeous in person.It looks just like the original!I am very pleased!I will definitely purchase items from this retailer again and only them!"
64384,2,great chapters on psychologie,"The book has 3 parts, psychologie, technical analyses and moneymanagement. This is a great book for beginners with technical analyses, but an even better book for the parts on psychologie and money management witch are the basics for every trader. No matter how good youre system is, if youre mind and money management are not in balance you will loose anyway. A must reed for every trader imho."
64405,2,Stroke wrist drop,"I bought this to give my hand support. After my stroke, wrist drop prevented me from pinching. The brace is a little difficult to get on or off sometimes, as the velcro will stick very hard. The metal insert can be bent to change the amount of cock-up, but you have to stand on it. The mtal inserts are easily removable. The brace is comfortable, but I don't wear it for more than an hour at a time."
64412,2,Great Stroller,"This is a great stroller. The storage is amazing. It folds up great, but the latch to hold it together isnt that great. I can move it around with one hand and I love that. Having the clock right at your fingertips is great too."
64457,2,Steal This Book - Really.,"Abbie Hoffman's book is full of some funny anecdotes and thoughtful phrases. Read what other people have to say about it cause I just want to tell you to steal it!! Don't buy it here!! Steal the book and steal others too, don't let the capitalists take ahold of your mind. Immerse yourselves in knowledge, then get organizing. I find it useful to walk into B&N with empty boxes inside of bags - fill'em up!!"
64530,2,FIN-ALLY! Terrok Nor has COME BACK to our homes!,"Sure, Dwayne might get mad about my abuse of his line, but we live with danger every day, don't we?DS9, the strongest of all the Treks, comes out on DVD, in a full season offer. How do you beat that? Well, bring out the rest of the seasons in short order, I say. Still and all, a welcome thing. Thank you, Powers That Be, for finally getting the clue. It only took you... how many years?"
64556,2,A must read book!,"I am not one who normally reads historical fictions. However, I started this book on a whim and I am not sorry that I did. I strongly recommend this book, especially to those who like history and adventure. Five stars, well earned!"
64655,2,LOVED IT!,"This is Jhumpa Lahiri's first book and a great read. It contains 9 short stories, the first, A Temporary Matter, being my favourite and A Real Durwan being my least favourite. I just thought A Temporary Matter was a great idea for a short story...sad, romantic and well written. Sexy was another brilliant story - Witty and very clever! I eagerly await more from this author."
64696,2,An interesting look into mans relationship with God.,"When I started to read this book, I could picture the scenery that was portrayed in the beginning because I have been to Manson and could picture it in my mind. But a person doesn't need to ever have heard of Lake Chelan in order to enjoy the book. Filled with little games and puzzles that are given out by hints throughout the book along with a riveting story, Mary's Field will keep you reading this novel over and over. I could relate with the main character throughout the book because we have had similar experiences. I really enjoyed this book."
64720,2,Loved it!,"There were some very good best practices in this book that I immediately adopted. I'm sure most people who would be interested in this book (experienced to advanced developers) have heard many of the best practice concepts in this book before from various sources, however I've yet to see someone develop a method to handling these ideas.It was a shorter book than I was expecting (yes, that's my goof for not noticing the page count when I purchased it) however I'm glad that I didn't notice that fact before purchasing otherwise I might have overlooked it as more of a reference book rather than a teaching book. I was very happy with the book and would recommend it to anyone interested in some solid best practices for PHP security."
64724,2,Psychedelic at its very best,"I can only think of two bands that come close to Tomorrow. The Beatles (with ""She Said, She Said"" on Revolver in particular). And Pink Floyd's Piper at the Gates of Dawn. But Tomorrow's melodies are just better. And they're better musicians. It's not by chance that Steve Howe would later join Yes. If ""Revolution"" and ""The Incredible Journey of Timothy Chase"" are probably best-crafted songs, the other ones are still extremely good, and well performed. How could such a gem draw so little attention??? Well, it certainly has from me: if I was to keep only one album, it would be this one.The 1999 EMI remaster (with 23 songs total) sounds pretty good to me as well, it could have been recorded yesterday as far as I'm concerned - but it wouldn't be as good, would it?Not as ""weird"" as early Pink Floyd, or ""polished"" as the Beatles - you could say it's catchier, happier, stronger, louder... psychedelic at its best, simply - what am I saying? MUSIC at its best!"
64734,2,Two Good Songs....,"Christina Aguilera has an great, strong voice.. She has an amazing talent that really shows.. even when she performs live.. Her voice is never weak.. I like her song ""I Turn To You"" because her voice sounds very beautiful.. and I really like the song.. I can listen to it again and again and I wouldn't get sick of it!.. And I also like ""What A Girl Wants""... my friends looooved that song.. and I liked the sound of it a lot... She may seem like a teenybopper style... But she really does have a lot of talent.. I even think she'll be around for a long time because her voice is very unique..."
64744,2,Review for other customers,I bought this cd because I love Manheim Steamroller's music in fact I've loved from the very first time I heard it for its so uplifting........
64848,2,Good bits,hey came quickly and work well. We are a pro shop and it is nice to get things you need fast.
64852,2,Created to be his Help Meet,"I wonder if this book shouldn't have been called ""Have a New Husband by Saturday""."
64855,2,Powerful book!,"This book has wielded a powerful force in changing me as a wife! I have been married for for 26 years and thought of myself as a Christian wife who did a good job of honoring God by honoring my husband yet after reading this book I was aware of attitudes and habits that honored neither. I had borrowed a friend's copy, read it, then immediately bought my own so I could read it again with a pen in hand to make notes. Debi Pearl's suggestions are practical and useful to Christian wives in any stage of marriage. I asked my husband for the companion journal for a Christmas gift."
64903,2,Covered with Glory,"Covered with Glory: The 26th North Carolina Infantry at the Battle of Gettysburg by Rod GraggI read this book as my Great-grandfather, Dr William Gaither, was the Asst Surgeon for the 26th North Carolina. Out of the 800 men in this Infantry, there were 28 surviving men of the 26th North Carolina Infantry who returned home from the Civil War. Dr Gaither was promoted to Surgeon on 11/4/1864, to rank from Sept 2, 1864, and transferred to the 28th Regiment NC Troops. Surgeon William Gaither is mentioned on page 241. I really enjoyed reading this book."
64923,2,"Definitely a ""Yaba Daba Do"" experience.","For anyone who has fond memories of the Flintstones and their adventures, then it is time to relive this place and family for your selves. Fred and Barney and their wives and children make us appreciate all our modern appliances but where would we ever find a pet dinosaur like Dino?"
64980,2,Great movie with excellent acting,"This movie was great! I enjoyed it very much. The first time I watched it the part in the court room disturbed me greatly, (Were Tom Hanks falls out), but after watching it several more times I have concluded that the movie was written and acted superly. It makes you think what would I do? If you were his Mother, Father, Brother, Sister, or even his Lawyer. I would be like Washington at first and not want to touch him at all. I especially liked the part where he is first in Washington's office and has just told Washington that he has AIDS and then lays his hat on the desk. Washington just sits and stares at the hat as to say, I'm going to have to get some Lysol sprayed there when he leaves. Exactly what I would do."
64993,2,Depends on what you are using it for,"I am very pleased with this flex keyboard. I use it when I travel and take my laptop. My keyboard is a bit messed up on it and I use this instead. It works great for that. It also rolls up for storage and doesn't take up much space at all.If you are planning to use it as an everyday keyboard however, this would not be for you. The keys are not as responsive as your typical keyboard and so you get some missed letters.All in all I am pleased with my purchase."
65080,2,So useful and compact!,"Great product! Sturdy and bags are durable. My washer/dryer is located in the kitchen in a closet, so this sorter cart sits in the corner of the kitchen. It's discreet, simple, and the retractable bar is a great addition!"
65268,2,Excellent expedient service,I received this order quickly and I really appreciate the fast and accurate service
65292,2,Tearfully Fantastic,Even though I had this CD since its release in September 1997 tears still come to my eyes whenever I listen to it. I have become addicted to this CD. This is Sir Elton's BEST release so far. It deserves more than five stars.
65337,2,The Real Royce,"rhymes: @@@@one of the most underated mc's in the game....rhymes arent great but that doesnt take away from a nice flow, ill delivery...rhymes are very well put together...production:@@@@Carlos ""6 July"" Broady laced royce wit some serious beats....the production on this album is on point...PLay Value: @@@@I can tell Im not gonna get tired of this album any time soon...Collabarations: @@@@@No collabs! ... good! im not really feelin the rest of ""d-elite""...he had to come out wit a serious album...and no better way to do it, than with just him on the lp....Overall: @@@@In my opinion this album does not have any flaws... Finally an official Royce album...Rock City 2.0 was a whole bunch of older songs thrown on an lp...so i dont even consider that an official lp...its gonna be one of the years best"
65439,2,it is excellent,"this is excellent for a bike riding. it is light, beautiful and of course very safe. i love the color of black. i have used it everyday. it is excellent."
65458,2,As a reference,"This text is really great, once you know the material. It's a bit hard to learn from, but it has so much knowledge in it for people to look up. It requires a fairly sophisticated background, and I started using it after going through the first half of Hatcher, but found it friendly after getting the basics of each section down. It is one of those books that is hard to get through on the first run through, but amazing to keep and use later. It does a good job leading someone to how the Poincare duality works and what is actually going on, and starts someone on intersection theory quite welcomingly.The star off, however, is for the outrageous cost. It is a book you'll want to keep, though."
65483,2,Capitalism brought to life in Technicolor.,"Economic theory being a sort of hobby of mine, I couldn't help but notice this particular work. I have written a book myself of which I was quite proud, but this one just blew me out of my grave. I think that after reading this brilliantly written piece that I am completely turned around on the issue of economics. Perhaps flinging around finicncial derivatives is the way forward.My only complaint is that the copy that I read was a photocopy. I find this distressing that there are so many photocopies of the work in circulation. As a distinguished writer myself, I, too, know the pains of not earning the residuals that are most deserved."
65576,2,A bedtime favorite for nearly 7 years!,"I have been reading this book just about every night for the past 7 years. Actually, I don't read it anymore, this catchy bedtime story has been recited by me for many years. My older child no longer has me read this to her, but the younger one has this as part of her nightly routine. The whimsical Boynton animals go through all the steps of going to bed in a series of delightful illustrations. The kids and I just love those cute Boynton animals with their hilarious expressions.I buy this book for all of my friends and family members when they are expecting a new baby. It's the perfect bedtime story."
65718,2,Other Books,"Very amusing gross out type kids tale. It taught me what horseradish was, at least! Quite old, but you didn't really notice, that, as it was about the kids and the whacky bet that two of them have made about how many ways you can eat those little crawling and wriggling earthworms. So pretty entertaining."
65743,2,I bring you the Ventures.,"This CD features two albums by the Ventures.Underground Fire was released in 1969. It featured a very different sound for the Ventures, as they adopted more of a late-'60s hard rock sound. This was also the first Ventures album to features the Ventures originals on one side and the covers on the other side. The original tunes really rock, and the cover versions of hits like ""Born to be Wild"" are good, too. This is one of the Ventures best albums, in my opinion.Hollywood Metal Dinamic Sound 2000 was released in 1975 in Japan only (on cassette only). The story goes that the Ventures recorded the backing tracks for an album by a Japanese rock and roll singer. That album flopped and the Ventures backing tracks later came out as an album without the singer's vocals. The material mostly consists of cover versions of '50s rock and roll classics. While it's not as good as Underground Fire, it's still a solid Ventures album.Ventures fans should enjoy this CD."
65744,2,Nice Band,Looks and feels great. the only reason i didnt give it 5 stars that it is a touch short. Fits my wrist which is medium sized with no real room to spare. If you have large wrists you'd have to find a different band.
65781,2,Great Movie,"The movie was just what I ordered. It was brand new and I received extremely quickly, i would buy again from amazon in a heart beat."
65834,2,"Love it, love it",This scent has been around awhile and it never gets old. I have received so many compliments when layering this with the perfume. The price was very affordable.
65861,2,Lonesome Dove,"Easy to see why this is called by many ""the greatest Western ever made"". It sure gets my vote."
65874,2,Shorthorn Cattle: Series of historical sketches,"Prompt shipping. Condition was good. Not quite as good as hoped, but it is hard to judge without previous picture."
65883,2,A Personal Favorite,Back in the 60s I wanted to play like Nokie Edwards. These records were great for a young kid back in the day but there is so much more available nowadays.
65891,2,I recommend this film,"This film gets your attention from A to Z . Charlotte Rampling'splay is excellent and sustains perfectly an interesting scenario.Ludivine Sagnier is not masterful but plays well her part.Although this film has it's nude and erotic momentsyou should buy another film if this is only what you are looking for.The film is not a 'nail biter ' but, always intelligent andsensitive, it will not let you down. The conclusion of thefilm is not perfect, but certainly interesting."
65903,2,"High quality, but wrist strap access is difficult","I got this case for my SD700 IS. Fit & finish is excellent. I got it from an Amazon Marketplace seller for $13.88. That price compares great with the generic canvas compact camera cases that sell for $10, since this one is high quality leather.My only complaint regards the wrist strap, which is why I didn't give it 5 stars. You need to coax the strap through the hole in the lid to remove the camera from the case, and thread the strap through the hole in the lid to return the camera to the case. Your other choices are to not use the wrist strap at all, or have the strap stick out the side of the case, which looks kind of dumb.Otherwise this is a great case, I am happy I bought mine!"
65928,2,The Best Movie you might ever see!,I loved watching this movie! Anyone who doesn't like this movie is obviously not a child at heart! This movie allows children to use their imagination and find out that it is always important to care!
65990,2,Very happy,The book came on time and I was very pleased with the condition of the book. I would do business with this vendor again.
66007,2,See Isaacs heroine get even with a cheating husband big time,"This is a great, light murder with a pretty predictable plot, but with just enough twists and turns that all 40 somethings will enjoy. The main character, Rosie, seems just like a normal woman with a real sleazebag for a husband. After I read this novel, I proceeded to read all of Isaacs novels, and this is the best. One problem -- all her heroines are unrealistic in two ways (1)they may be middle aged, but they are beautiful and thin and have either great careers or lots of money or both and (2) these women may get dumped in a big way, but by the end of the novel, they have a great man in their life. Still worth reading. It will make you laugh."
66043,2,Awesome movie.,"Can't find this movie anywhere anymore! Can't find it to rent, no stores have it, I'm glad I picked it up online! Great movie!"
66052,2,Great ideas,"This book enables me to look at the patterns, practice the new template and stitches, and then do my project. Excellent for beginners as well as advanced."
66061,2,Stimulating introduction and review of ICA,"This excellent book introduces the reader in the field of Independent Component Analysis providing the necessary fundamentals to understand and apply the different methods. The book also makes interesting links to other techniques. The author has succeeded at writing a very didactic text, not an easy task given the complexity of the matter, and at transmitting his enthusiasm to the reader.I've enjoyed this book, which has been not only an introduction to ICA but which has brought me into ICA, stimulating my own experimentation with the technique."
66100,2,NASB MacArthur Study Bible,I am very pleased with how this book is set up. I would highly recommend this book for a study guide.
66127,2,Awesome!,I was a little hesitant to buy this perfume. But trust me it is great. My wife loves it and the female colleage asked which one is it to buy for her husband. :) It stays on till you wash the shirt. :)
66177,2,it really is the best,"This mouse pad may just look like an ordinary mouse pad, but it isn't. It works great and lets your mouse move as smoothly and precisely as the mouse you own can be. I couldn't find the dimensions on this website for the size of this mouse pad but its not like an oridinary sized mouse pad, unless this is a smaller version. I'm almost certain that this thing is big enough to fit your mouse and part of your keyboard on it. (like half) its really confortable and works great.its the best buy if you need a great gaming mouse pad.use this one."
66227,2,Gift item!,Gift item for my son in law. This is the one he has used for years and finally wore out! He's happy so I'm happy!!
66259,2,Great item!,Item arrived lighting fast and well packaged. It was priced well below what the local chain store was selling them for so I had my doubts but it's the genuine item and worked perfectly. Would definately use this seller again!
66338,2,Pretty good triller with a different twist that you have to watch all the way threw to understand,This movie is much different then normal suspense trillers or mystery thrillers that most of us are use to. Leo does a great acting job and the supporting actors add to the drama and intensity of the film. I have personally watched it 3 times now since I've have bought it a while ago. It took me watching it 3 times to fully understand the whole movie and what the main character meant at the end of the movie. So if you like Martin Scorsese movies then pick this movie up and watch it all the way threw to fully understand the movie and whole plotline of the movie your watching. It is really a good suspense triller and lots of drama. Buy it and make up your own mind about the actors and the plotline because it is a good movie.
66392,2,Fiesta Cherry Salt & Pepper Shaker Set,"Nice set, bright and cheery. Just be careful when refilling. The plastic stopper at the bottom is somewhat soft and flexable and I accidently pushed it right into the shaker."
66431,2,Life changeing,"This DVD has change my mind about the way I think about almost everything. I bought the book, the DVD and the daily teachings and would do it again. I plan to give copies to the people I love"
66502,2,One of my favorites!,"This is the funniest book I have ever read. I have read it an embarrassingly amount of times, but each time it still makes me laugh out loud. I highly recommend it!"
66568,2,awesome movie,"I have no idea why some people say its bad because it isnt its actually really good, definately good !!!Im a guy and its not just halle thats good its the whole thing ,a great movie!"
66585,2,"Good seller, and the product is reasonable but...",The item did arrive quickly. This DBP monitor doesn't come with AC adapter. Battery runs out quickly. Most of the time it said ERROR.
66621,2,Lift Off!,I just love this pen! It is soooooo cool. You push the rocket down and the point to the pen comes out. My kids thought it was so neat that they took it to class on their sharing day.
66669,2,Price was right and the shipping was fast too.,"This book was a gift so I didn't get to really view it. From what I could see, it was in great shape. Thanks!"
66736,2,Disclosure,"Whether in a business suil or a bikini Ms. Moore looks good! A very good story, fast moving and exciting."
66738,2,"Join the dark side, it is your destiny","I bought one of these and was surprised how durrable it was, deffinately not like the ones you get from Hasbro, Rubies or any of those other inferior brands. It is extremly educational (that is if you enjoy learning how to construct one, or for learning how to duel) I will soon be getting three more so my brothers and I can have duels, also they say not to duel with them, I say as long as you are careful and don't hit people hard with them, they work for dueling, also people are going to duel anyway."
66758,2,Great book to begin your path to wealth,"This book takes the conversation a few steps past Kiyosaki; however, has a few additional steps to take you to actually generate the wealth we seek.I read this book and thoroughly enjoyed it. After reading it several times, I was able to develop an appropriate, basic plan for myself and my family.What this program does NOT do is show you specifically how to build a business or where to invest your ""lazy assets."" For that information, you have to read Guerilla Marketing or call a specific IRA attorney who can show you how to do the types of deals she discusses.But the book is definitely worth getting if you're serious about creating wealth."
66789,2,MARSHALL DILLON - STILL A GOOD EXAMPLE,I received this series in the mail in good condition and promptly. I have always enjoyed Gunsmoke. One that will always be one of my favorites. Thank you.
66799,2,GREAT WORK FROM A GREAT GUITARIST,"I bought one of these albums for myself, and then got one for a friend! Ty shows why he is one of the most talented guitarists around and one of the nicest, too. Sensitive, honest lyrics, beatle-esque harmonies, nifty chord progressions and leads that anyone who likes the work he does with KING'S X will have to have! - Brad Farha"
66882,2,Anne Frank the Film,"The diary of Anne Frank, was very good, and i enjoyed the depiction of it in this film. The characters were very interesting, especially Mrs. Van Daan. She was very dramatic about everything and made the film more interesting. Although most of the film portrays the diary well, the love scene with Peter and Anne was very cheesy. We watched this film in school, and the entire class laughed at the scene. I deducted one star, mainly because of that scene. Over all, I did like most of the film, so I didn't deduct any more stars."
66935,2,Excellent Product,"Worked as advertised. Dogs stopped barking immediately. My only complaint is that because we have an electronic ""invisible fence"" the dogs now have to wear two collars. Would be nice if the two receivers could be mounted on the same strap (or even better, combined into one unit)"
67043,2,Great information,This book is an easy read and has lots of information for new parents. It seems practical with good medical advice one can easily understand. It provides a good basic survival guide.
67058,2,Thinking outside the academic feudalist dogmas...,A great departure from conventional academic 'black box' thinking that most likely will prove to be correct as more evidence mounts over the years. An invitation to expand thinking about human origins and life on Earth and not be confined by the taboos determined by the self-appointed 'elite' of university parasites that rule scientific establishments. To be read and re-read by anyone interested in alternative explanations to unresolved questions on the dawn of humankind.
67092,2,Great overview of water storage comcepts,"This book offers an excellent overview of water collection theory. Included are a few detailed build schematics, but this book relies heavily on owner ideas to creat a system dedicated to the individual. I got some great new ideas and can honestly recommend this read."
67113,2,Nice camera case and genuine Canon battery.,"I need a case and maybe a second battery, so I got this Accessory Kit 2. Nice soft leather case(fasten with velcro and belt insert on the back of the case), genuine Canon battery(for my Canon SD110), and I'd say neckstrap as a bonus item since I'm probably not going to it use anyway."
67128,2,EcoBags,"I ordered four EcoBags, one of which frayed at a seam when washed. When I related this information to EcoBags, I received an apology via e-mail and within a couple of days received a new bag. This bag withstood the wash test and I am very happy with their bags (which are a very good size) and their prompt response. I would recommend these bags to others."
67181,2,I've been looking for this one for many years! Awesome book!,"This book commands crazy prices on the used book market, so I had given up hope on ever being able to read it, until now! This is a great time to be a sporting book enthusiast, as many of these old classics are now becoming available in low cost reprint editions. Diligent searches will reveal books you never thought you'd ever get to read! Kudos to the publishing houses who have undertaken this project to supply some very exclusive titles to those of us who don't read best sellers!"
67202,2,A pleasant watch,"I think Duane and Kelly Rowlands both did their thing in this film. It was an enjoyable and tasteful film about true love and how people can connect during the strangest moments. Kelly is truly a beautiful and talanted woman, and I wish her the best in life. It was simple, but good, and once in a while we need films like this to escape horrid films like that Killer cam movie...what was he thinkin. But I truly did enjoy the seat filler. I laughed and smiled."
67213,2,Stones From The River,Stones From The River is an interesting and thought-provoking novel. This story tells of a small German town during World War Two and chronicles the various hardships the town goes through when the town's citizens are torn apart based on their views of both Jews and the newly formed Natzi party. Told from the perspective of a dwarf girl living in the town this novel portrays a viewpoint rarely experienced by American readers (that of a non-Jewish as well as anti-Natzi). Through this story readers learn about the hardships German citizens experienced after World Wars One and Two and how keeping silent only slowed the healing process for this town and its people. Although the book is a bit to long and takes a while to get interesting it is a wonderful story that is both entertaining and educational.
67285,2,The Absolute King of Hawaiian Slack Key,"Gabby ""Pops"" Pahinui (Phillip Gabby Pahinui) was absolutely the greatest Slack Key Guitarist that ever lived.Many folks consider him to be the father of the style. Any title with his name on it is a Must Have item for the Hawaiian Music Lover. Gabby was a state road crew worker by day and an incredible guitarist, singer-songwriter by night and weekend.Ry Cooder lived and studied with this man and his family in the 70's.To see Gabby in person provoked instant Chicken Skin (goosebumps). Gabby left us in 1980 but fortunately for all of us, three of his sons - Cyril, Martin & Bla Pahinui all continue making fine music and extending the family legacy.Anytime you see a cd with the name Pahinui on it, grab it...you will not be sorry. Pahinui, like Mercedes, means absolute perfection. - Rabbett"
67294,2,Campy,"I remember watching this movie when I was about 8 years old, thinking it was the coolest thing I'd ever seen. Aside from Flight of the Navigator, of course. I probably watched it a million times. Now, my 9 year old daughter is heading to space camp in a few months. I all of a sudden remembered this movie and instantly had a strong desire to watch it again, with my daughter.Yes, the plot is unbelievable, corny, campy, whatever. But it is a fun movie that your kids (10 and under) will love. It's one of those movies that's great to fall asleep to on a rainy Saturday afternoon."
67474,2,you must buy this,this is the best nibbler i used and i use a lot of brands easy to use cut well .will buy another
67475,2,Very good introduction to Embedded Linux!,Solid introduction to the topic and fairly easy to read. I was concerned about being overwhelmed but the authors have taken time to make a difficult subject available to the average Linux SysAdmin.Lots of information for embedded dev's coming from other Operating Systems! If that's you then the authors suggest havingRunning LinuxandLinux Kernel in a Nutshell (In a Nutshell (O'Reilly))available while you work with this book.Definately a good read! Minor issues are the slight wordiness in places and the lack of proof-reading here and there. Embedded systems skills are gaining popularity and you can get some hands on working with a minimal system and trying out the stuff in this book.
67558,2,Previous reviews have been slightly off the mark,"I say, have the other reviewers been listening to the same artist? What's up with all these comparisons with Tori Amos, Bjork? Although Moscow-born Regina Spektor has been grouped together with the 'anti-folk movement', her music hearks back to those very roots she's supposed to have left. Her Russian-Jewish heritage and her classical training play a major role in her music. Regina's Slavic accent is so thick sometimes I'm wondering whether she exaggerates it on purpose! It would in any case suit the theatricality of her music. For that is another element: her music has more in common with cabaret and chansons than with the confessional ballads of her female contemporaries. In any case, I suggest that certain people return to their stereos and give Regina's music another listen before making and Joni Mitchell comparisons."
67687,2,For mature thinking in mathematics,"A ""closer"" look at mathematics: Book ends where all other books on Mathematics start. With this book, you look at all of basic mathematics much more deeply. It does not help you how to solve specific maths problems, it tells you why were those problems were solved the way they were by the mathematicians.A unique blend of actual mathematics, philosophy, and history of mathematics. It goes well beyond defining 'what' is mathematics; Actual mathematics is there in the book.Example: You know (-1)(-1)=(+1) but never knew that there's 'more' to it -- That it sounds so right yet it doesn't have to be right! With this book, you look at all of basic mathematics much more deeply."
67729,2,Great album from an all too overlooked performer.,"I'm new to Chris after seeing him live, solo. He is absolutely captivating live. There's not quite as much magic in the studio recordings but they are still great. The title track is especially nice because he's added very little to it save for some backing vocals which sound more at home with each successive listening. ""Origin of Species"" is one of my all time favorite lyrics. Bottom line is Chris is a wonderful songwriter and a great performer. If you ever get the opportunity to see him live, don't miss it."
67747,2,Amazing!,"After a few years of not owning ice Princess, buying and giving it away as a gift; it feels good to really own the Ice Princess. I've become very familiar with the soundtrack since I didn't give it away, and aligning the soundtrack's appearances in the movie added a point of thrill to the movie's enjoyment. I just love to see ice skating matches and seeing a movie about a person freeing themselves to do what they desire fuels my personal dreams for 'getting there.' This movie inspires me anew with each viewing. It came sooner than I ever expected and the brief wait was filled with anticipation. The movie contained no defect on the case or disc and I couldn't have asked for anything better."
67768,2,Delightful book,"I love this book. I just finished reading it, tears streaming down my face. As with most women, the more I cry in a book the more I love it and I had tears at least 3 times. The powerful writing, unique in several ways, pulled me in and I felt the tension, the mystery (this is not a conventional mystery, so I am talking about the mystery of life and love, the inevitability, though I was not assured of inevitability as I read along)...oh, there are so many things I love about this book. I just know the author had a wonderful time writing it. I loved every single quirky character. I loved the scenery, and of course the bears, alive and sculpted, that wove their ways into my heart."
67784,2,Couldn't put it down,Im one of those people that read for leisure. I take my time and enjoy my book. However with My War it was the kind of book I couldnt take my time with. I just wanted more! Its a truly fantastic read. A true page turner. Colby Buzzel is funny and honest and writes things as he sees it. I thought the book would be a bit political (being American) but some how despite all thats going on with this war he keeps politics to a minium and writes it how it is. How the troops cope on the ground. A great book which I would recommend to anyone. Well Done Mr Buzzell.
67848,2,Your personal mood fixer :),"Since you're here I guess you hesitate if this CD is right for you one word -- ""definitely""!If you have hopeful disposition, romantic attitude love ruminate and think about good things that happened or might happen to you :) and besides this love artists like: Solu Music, Aquanote, Kaskade etc...you gotta have it. This is everything you need. You'll love it :)"
67908,2,Frankie Laine/Jezebel,"I purchased this as a Christmas gift for my son. He has been listening to '40's music, which is before my time and certainly before his. He has said he really enjoy's listening to this CD."
67948,2,Works the first month of use!,I have had great results with this product. My sister sent it to me because it worked for her as well. It gives you a better idea when you are fertile and when your not. Helps in better family planning.
67970,2,"Oh yeah, baby!",These pants are very soft and comfortable. They are great for the gym or home. They are not obscene and are just the right amount of looseness without being baggy. I sleep in them and run around the house in them. In the fall and spring I live in them!
67994,2,THEY REALLY WORK!!!!,"I saw versions of these pans on TV and loved the idea but wanted a better quality. Oh My Goodness...they really work wonderfully! I spray two tortilla shells very lightly with butter flavored cooking spray then press into the pans. The next trick is to cut 2 rounds of parchment and lay them in the center of the shell and put pie weights. Bake at 375 for 12 minutes and they are perfect. I fill with ""green leaf"" lettuce, grilled & sliced flank steak, grilled onions, grape tomatoes, grated cheddar cheese and Hidden Valley Farmhouse Originals Southwest Chipotle Dressing. Literally, as good as any resturant.The pans clean up with a very light swipe of warm soapy water and quick rinse. They will last me for years."
68018,2,True Calling's Back In 2005!,"We fans are treated to a wonderful first season. Not to fear, the show along with FOX's 24 is coming back in 2005. We'll learn more in the second season about who Tru Davies is and why she has this special gift to give a second chance to those who died. Its a powerful piece of mythology in that all of us wish we could rewind the hands of time and get to see loved ones and friends one more time. I give it 4 instead of 5 stars simply that this being the first season, not all of the story threads have been worked out. Hopefully that will all change next year."
68035,2,Fast Paced and Exciting,"High Lonesome was a incredible, fast paced, action paced book. I finished this book in less than a day and didn't want the story to end. Everything a true western fan could want including outlaws, bank robberies, gun fights, fist fights and a damesal in distress."
68037,2,Alot of deep bass,This thing is the best thing it has alot of bass and it makes alot of deep bass thats the bass makes everything shake. with its 360 watts you can hear it really far. Now that i put two bazzokas 10 inch my house is breaking apart. Also I just went to ... and none of the stereos there beat mine maybe because i put the bazookas but it is still great. If you like rap it will be the thing that you will love more. It Is The Bomb!!!!
68096,2,Paradise: A+ Tender Triumph: D,"""Paradise"" is a great book. No problems there. My favorite is still ""Perfect"".HOWEVER,""Tender Triumph"" is a mess, the worst of her books.The hero was an interesting, fully fleshed-out character. I just don't get what he saw in her. I kept hoping that his REAL love interest would show up, sadly, he married the heroine.The heroine had the emotional maturity of a fifteen-year-old girl. She was over-emotional, and showed extremely poor judgement in Puerto Rico- picture Paris Hilton with better morality."
68128,2,"The Greatest Rock Album Ever, Period!!","Songs like "" Soma "" and "" Today "" are what rock music is allabout. Astounding guitars,throbbing bass lines , pounding drumsand of course the inimitable voice of Billy Corgan.A timeless classic- a brilliant blend of hard ,headbanging musicand soft melodies that can move you to tears."
68130,2,"If I had to sell all my CDs but one, this would be the one!","Siamese Dream is the greatest! Not only does it have hard rockin' songs, but it has great variety as well, including the softer songs ""Soma,"" ""Sweet Sweet,"" and ""Luna."" ""Quiet"" is anything but, and may be the greatest song of all time!"
68137,2,Use it every day,I use it every day and am glad I have it. It is easy to read and has many different volume units. Prior to buying this from Amazon a few years ago I had to have 2 sets of measuring cups to avoid messes when I needed to measure the same quantity of a liquid and a solid.
68146,2,Great!,This book is great im now making tons of extra money by selling and buying cards at the right time i say buy it if you want to make some cash.
68150,2,the finale gives me goosebumps,I read that finale over and over. The apparatchiki put down their briefcases and build barricades. I was there at EDSA in Manila when the kids and the nuns stopped the tanks with flowers and rosaries. Yet only when I read the MCS description do I get the full impact of People Power as a transformation and triumph of the human spirit.
68206,2,Women Power,"While the language is a challenge, this is a must read for anyone who believes the War on Women is ridiculous and that women do not have power. If we support each other, we can change the world!"
68228,2,Don't let this one getaway,"Like so many others I had this album on cassette and listened to it over and over and to this day it still sounds great. I've a heck of a time finding this on CD. I've searched around trying to get a good price for a domestic copy but it seems to be only available as an import. Get it! It's worth it for the Todd Rungren production alone. Even though the band basically broke up after this album (not Todd's fault). Inventive arrangements, good songs done in very different ways. Lots of twists and turns to where most musicians would fear to tread. Very theatrical, visual project."
68299,2,ex bitch magnet guys playing grunge.,"The sound is similiar to bitch magnet, but more fleshed out. Great guitar sound and decent production. The vocals are a little flat on the ballad type songs, though the aggressive songs vocals are good. If you liked 2nd wave grunge like say Seaweed, Dandelion, Big Chief, you more than likelu will like this."
68328,2,pokemon emerald - used,"The game was received in the condition as advertised. All of the options worked and there were some extra characters enabled in the game. The cartridge was not a ""copy"" from what I can tell. The label was missing but that was called out in the description. This game is hard to find locally so I was happy to see it on Amazon."
68339,2,"Looks Great, Awesome Quality","For the price, I knew I could afford to try it. Well, lo and behold, it's a pretty good stick bag. Quality is tight. I'm sure this bag will last me years and years. I haven't figured out how to hang it on the side of my drum (drum kit)."
68444,2,Nutritionist Soy Milk Maker is Great,It was easy to use and there is no beany taste. The money I'm saving offsets the time it takes to clean it. I like my machine and recommend buying it.
68446,2,Brain Typing,"This is a fascinating book. Jonathan attempts to tie physiology to principles that have been discussed for years as being psychological. It can be liberating to know that people are not being difficult, but they are the way they are because of their ""hard wiring"" which causes them to see the world differently. One problem is the self testing for brain typing. It can be tricky to pick the correct type even when you've been as honest as you can with the questions. It can also influence your expectations for children's development. This is a seminal work that needs to be developed further by the scientific community."
68458,2,Street,"This is a great GPS!Easy to use, perfect for travels.One more thing they should add on the device:All streets name on the screen at the same time."
68477,2,My ROADYXT Home Kit Experience,"I bought the Home Kit for the RoadyXT. Overall, it does what you want it to do. You can either have it at work or home to listen to music all day. We have a firewall at work, so I can't listen to music over the net. That's where the Home Kit comes into play. The satellite signal it receives it not bad for being inside the building with no windows nearby. The FM Modulation is a bit weak and gives some static, although I'm not sure if it's the Roady or the Home Kit. Overall, the remote is easy to use and helpful on the road as well. I would recommend it if you want the extra item, but not a necessary one."
68514,2,Punk All The Way,"This is a wonderful ablum...it contains some unreleased versions of tracks and hits you hard in the face, wanting more...If you are tired of cheap pop music(britney spears, BSB) they play on MTV or the cruddy mainstream(Korn, Slipknot) or wannabe punk(blink 182) then get this ablum. It will give you an urge to get more punk ablums."
68523,2,can't fail,"After a brief run of not bad, but not astounding books, the Assassin's Apprentice blew me away. Hobb's ability to create such a multi-deminsional world seems almost effortless, and this skill extends to depth of character, as well. I feel such craftsmanship could have entranced me into reading about the chores of the dullest pot-scrubber boy. Centering her book around a prince's bastard turned assassin just cinches it. I'm hooked on Hobb."
68535,2,Hands-On Writing Tools for Young Writers,I enjoyed this book. It gave some very practical advice on creating a workshop environment for writing in the Intermediate grades. I have used the ideas (modified) with younger writers and they are equally as beneficial.I think this is a must have for anyone who would like to put some Umphhh back into writing in the classroom.
68576,2,A Trucker's Tale,"A Tree for America,By Edd Voss,Mr. Voss has redefined the image of truck drivers throughout our nation. The story of one man, Ken Rainey, and a less than willing passenger, Robert Anjer, takes us on a journey across our beautiful country from Washington State to Washington DC.However, the story of Ken Rainey and his passenger is not strictly, about the countryside or the cargo Mr. Voss has intricately woven intrigue, danger and emotion throughout the book. A Tree for America is a well-written story for young and old alike. I predict it will become a favored story for all seasons, and especially for Christmas.Reviewed by:Ken Chambers"
68586,2,Good Deal,"Bought as a gift for my father. He's an intermdiate/advanced level user, so figured he'd give this a good run. The machine is very lightweight and really delivers. Very nice display with reasonable battery life.Get another GB of RAM if you can - the weakness with this machine is probably the OS's steep RAM needs - oink, oink!Liked the Toshiba laptops in 90's, but they sort of dropped in quality (IMO), so I stayed away from them. This isn't too bad and a real steal for the $$."
68591,2,The Black and Flame,"In this book we get the first meeting of Walter Farley's two most famous Horses the Black Stallion (The Black) and the Island Stallion (Flame). During a bad storm the plane, Alec, The Black and Henry are on, crashes. The Black and some mares and their foals, get separated from the human survivors. The Black and his small band, end up finding Azul Island, where Flame is King of his herd. While Henry and Alec eventual get rescued and taken to another island. However they refuse to leave with out looking for the Black. The Black enjoys his found freedom, but two powerful stallions can never coexist for longThe chapters alternated between Alec and Henry's POV , and The Blacks, which is quite interesting to see Walter write from the Horses prospective, something I don't think he ever did before, nor again as far as I know.We also have a rapid Vampire Bat that stirs up trouble for both the humans and the horses."
68592,2,Very workable,"Received my Aeron Desk Chair, couldn't wait to open and get it put together ~ which was a breeze. A couple of screws to attach the back and it was up and running. The ability to raise and lower the chair so easily is a big plus, as I change positions often when working. Comfort is excellent, ergonomics are great. Smooth rolling. Wish I had had it years ago in my away from home office when I was working full time. And the price was what I was willing to pay. Didn't realize it would be such a great chair at such a great price."
68678,2,Cool Sonic Game!,"I got this game a long time ago when it first came out. It seems somewhat simpler than the original sonic games on the sega genisis, but its a good fun game. Theres a bunch of levels and characters so youll be playing for a good long time. As always everything is super fast, lots of loops and rings, and theres cool music in the backround. If you want a fun handheld sonic game get this!"
68722,2,WoW!!,"Ok i'll be honest i didnt know much about this series when i bought it.. but i looked at some reviews and most people liked it so i decided to give it a try. And upon watching it i was surprised,Yes there is fan service but not over the top like queen's blade, The story is great the animation is great so if your in anime atleast give it a try!! if you look up funimation on youtube you can watch the first two episode's so look there if your not sure about it."
68740,2,"more,more,more","I've read every book W. Sarabande has written. Please ,lets have a sequal to Wolves of Dawn, Please, Please, Thank you . My husband has been down in the den six hours so far, still reading it. hopefully he will surface soon ....."
68805,2,Are You A Beach Boys Fan? Are You Pressed For Time?,"If so, then this Best Of The Beach Boys is for you (my copy is entitled Hits Of The Beach Boys is indentical) as it only runs to 25 mintues!The 10 songs are from the 1963-66 era and could easily been in chronological order, but are not.The quality of the tracks is not in question, they are the original classics which will always invoke careless days surfing, meeting girls and driving dragster cars.Most fans will want much more than this offering, it certainly whets the appitite!"
68812,2,Very good...however...,"Great new edition of a terrific book. This Bison Books edition adds Farmer's ""exclusive interview with Lord Greystoke (from Esquire) and ""Extracts from the memoirs of ""Lord Greystoke"" (from ""Mother Was A Lovely Beast""). The problem being, the editors placed these at the start of the book, instead of added as appendices, and I feel they slow the book down. Also, this edition does not include the Wold Newton family tree from earlier editions. Great cover art by ""Jean-Paul Goude"", also originally from Esquire (1972).Still, recommended for any Farmer, Burroughs, or Tarzan fan."
68815,2,2Pac's Final Performance,This was 2Pac's last acting role before his violent death. Overall this movie is a great action film and I recommend it to everyone.Peace.R.I.P. Tupac ShakurBest rapper ever!
68824,2,A Great Book,I need not add my voice to the many who have found this book of such great value that they have forced publication of edition after edition (now up to 30); their action speaks loud and clear. My small voice simply adds to their chorus. This is one great book.
68839,2,Classic Looney Tunes Style,"Back in action does a great job of keeping the true Looney Tunes style in a new movie, The characters are drawn in the original style, not the 60's animated style. While some people may not notice little things like the stray strands of fur on Bugs and Daffy it makes a big difference to me because the characters just don't seem the same. There are so many little things in this movie that after watching multiple times you will still find new things that you didn't see before. Brendan Frasier and Jenna Elfman do a good job working with the Tunes the movie feels natural unlike a lot of live action movies. If you're looking for recent Looney Tunes with classic style this is an excellent choice."
68954,2,amazing,"Christina was hot and it is so high energy. I loved the whole thing, what a great concert. I haven't even gotten to to the behind the scenese because I can't stop watching the concert. (great for watching it while on a treadmill)"
69008,2,Great Dog Food,"This is by far the best dog food I have ever used. My dachshund has one of those ""rare"" coat colors, the product of a gene mutation, which results in short, very fine hair, no undercoat, and occasional bouts of hair loss (when not on the proper diet, apparently.) I had tried a number of foods, both economical and higher end, and not one really seemed to work well, as he also has a weakened immune system and digestive issues. I found this product in my local health food store and decided to try it. It didn't take long before his coat was shiny and practically lush! Its the only food I have tried that has done that. Its easily digestible (they also make one with fewer ingredients that i have since discovered that is great for dogs with allergies) and doesn't leave him lethargic the way some brands did. Its worth every penny."
69019,2,Brain Hypothermia: Basic Science & Clinical Practice,"There are about 4 recent books on Brain Hypothermia. This one should be on the shelves of clinicians and researchers involved in hypothermia research. The chapters are succinct and well illustrated. It is very suitable as a desk reference on the subject for novice researchers. It discusses the parameters, biochemistry, management, and outcomes of hypothermia relevant to 2004. Dietrich has authored another Springer book in 2005 called Hypothermia for Acute Brain Damage which is more research based and more uptodate. The books are still quite different. The bench researcher will want to buy both, with priority on the 2005 volume. I used this book to help prepare for a visiting lecture I gave on Cerebral Ischemia: Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms."
69027,2,Beautiful performance with mediocre video,"This certainly is better than his Requiem also shot in Bavaria. The soloists were perfect and the combination of 3 sacred pieces excellent. As with the Requiem my problem is the video quality....hardly crisp and the wide-angle shots are blurry like through cheesecloth. As with the requiem he strangely requires silence from the audience both in the beginning and ending as bells chime at the end. I am happy to have these as I await the definitive Blu-ray version. The only great mass I have seen so far on DVD is Beethoven's Missa Solemnis commemorating the re-opening of the great Dresden Protestant church destroyed during World War II.....if you want to see a finely recorded mass get this one...so far most of them are old recordings which are just not up to modern video and audio standards,"
69042,2,Great historical novel,This is a well-researched historical novel with a mystery and a romance. A must read for anyone who enjoys a well-crafted story.
69073,2,The editorial,"review reminds me of a headline from The Onion: 79 Percent Of Americans Missing The Point Entirely. Unless the translation is really bad, it is one of the best cartoons ever made. At least as funny as Shrek."
69217,2,One of the all-time best pop culture classics,Goucho is the last and finest work of Steely Dan. This work encompasses all that which made SD the huge musical entity that they were. Goucho is truly a song-writing and lyrical masterpiece.
69218,2,Entertaining,"Being a huge fan I'm a little bit bias, I was looking for some spoken word. Never the less I did enjoy it."
69286,2,He does it again!,"Warning: If you like to read before bed, do not read this book, it will keep you turning pages long into the early morning hours!Wally Lamb does it again with ""I Know This Much is True"". This is honestly one of the only 900-page books that I could not put down, and one of two books that has ever made me cry. That's an accomplishment. I just finished reading it for the second time- and I'll probably go back for a third. It is an excellent book which anyone who enjoys fiction should read!"
69291,2,Wonderful,I have a friend who has twin boys and they are not to this extreme however they are opposites. I found this book very entertaining. Yes it was a long one but it was good. It was a good summer reading book.
69334,2,Not just another mindless magazine,"This is my favorite magazine. I can hardly put it down, and it wish it was published more often. They have some of the best, most interesting articles around. In the last issue, they featured a list of the biggest ideas in history broken down for us laymen (ie: existentialism, chaos theory, etc.), plus an article on ""How to Become a Superhero in 5 Easy Steps"". The articles are fun and interesting at the same time. I recommend this magazine to anyone."
69348,2,A Mechanical Engineer's Review of the ZTR2560,"As a mechanical engineer, my primary concern when first seeing a brochure for the Swisher ZTR2560 was the stamped steel frame as opposed to a frame welded up from structural tubing as featured in other mowers on the market. After seeing the mower in person at a local dealer, I needn't have worried. This machine has a frame stamped from heavy gage steel and has all of the strength and ridgity one could expect from a welded tubing frame.The engine and hydraulic drive units are from well known manufacturers and the build quality is excellent. The mower arrived at my door in a well designed shipping crate that fully protected it duriing shipping and it was full of oil and ready to go upon arrival. All I had to do was put gasoline in the tanks and it started right up.This machine is everything I expected and more and I am completely satisfied with my purshase."
69350,2,"AWESOME! Installed on a boat tower, totally water proof!","I installed these and two 4.2s on a boat tower using tower clamps. They are awesome at projecting the sound to be heard while being towed. They look great and are completely splash proof! I literally hose them down sometimes. ;)The bass response is pretty good for 6"" drivers and the claimed line-array really seems to work well! With the line-array you can really tell when you fall outside the coverage pattern.Once note: I blew the tweeter driver in one of them which looked to be like a factory defect. The diaphragm separated from a portion of the surround... something you cannot do by overpowering. Luckily EV has replacement tweeters and they're not that expensive. New tweeter installed and playing great!With these...I've got the loudest boat on the water! :)"
69503,2,Great Job!,I love Euphoria by Calvin Klein been wearing it for a year. I knew the product was good but I am very pleased with the shipping and handling!!!!! It arrived in great condition and very quickly. I will purchase again. Thank you so much!
69543,2,So awesome.,"This is one of the single movies (besides the original SW trilogy) that I've owned in most possible formats - VHS, Beta, LD, DVD, and now Blu-Ray. This one seems better to me. I'm not sure why besides just the picture quality, but there are parts that seemed new to me.I haven't done any kind of in depth research as to why and I don't care to. I'm just saying that it seemed different and longer to me. Much Better! I've loved this film since I was a little kidlet and it almost felt like seeing a brand new version of it.I can't wait until they release it in hologram or direct-to-brain (DTB) format because I'll buy those too! This is just one of those films that always tears it up for me and this Blu edition is absolutely fantastic."
69553,2,My son's favorite,"These are my son's favorite. I don't remember how old he was when he started eating them, but he's 16 months now and still loves them. We've tried all the other flavors and I also like this one the best, because they are the least messy (compared to the maple cinnamon ones) and least stinky (compared to the veggie onion ones)."
69557,2,Excellent How-to book.,"My wife and I were getting ready to finalize plans to build our dream home in South Dakota. We did not want to do it the same way that every else did. In other words we were looking for something different. We heard about this book and thought we would give it a try. Rebecca Dianne and I have been very pleased to say the least. This book has given us so many alternatives to look at in the building process that it amazes me that we didn't think of it before. It would be wonderful if there would be a follow-up every year or so to keep us abreast of changes in the field. The one thing that pleased me greatly was that the book was writen so that anyone could understand it. Most of these books are written like college textbooks, this one I am happy to report is written for the lay person. Hats off to Rick and Dan."
69584,2,a great bra but could be better,This gives so much support without putting too much pressure on my neck and back. Wish it has a little bit more padding. I was running a half marathon in a chilly morning and my nipples showed even with the bra and a long sleeve shirt...awkward.....
69602,2,"Intense, inspiring story of a victim who becomes a survivor","The first time I read this book I didn't quite understand it. It has a stream of consciousness effect that shows Tish's thoughts over the course of one day.(and human thoughts are very erratic) However, on the second time around most of the fog cleared. Tish had to stand up to her sexually abusive stepfather, not an easy feat. Although one reviewer was correct that Tish didn't show the self-blame or ""my family is normal"" feeling of an abuse victim, most other emotions were realistic. She was afraid at first to confront Tonnie, and she pushed away her friends. Many parts were explicit, like the language and sex descriptions, but you can't expect a book about an abused kid to be a picnic in the park. Overall, this novel profoundly affected me. I reccomend it to older teens, especially rape victims. If it confuses you at first, reread it. It's worth the effort."
69610,2,A little dissapointing!,"Well,I waited for this CD for months with great anticipation.Should'nt have gotten my hopes up! There are some great tracks here,don't get me wrong.(space manouevers is incredible)any crew?....negative!.But the other tracks are king of a let down.I found myself listening to Northern Exposure II again quite quickly.Oh well,i'm sure the more you listen..the better it get's..right?At least I hope so!!"
69626,2,Best Road to Christ,Steps to Christ is an amazing and easy to understand study guide to find your way Jesus and to regain your personal connection with Christ.
69638,2,One of the Funk Mob's 80's finest,"All the tracks on this album are great, but tracks two through six are classics. They have all the musicianship and vocal prowess you'd hope for on a slamming P-Funk album. The first and last tracks are full of Clinton's rapping wit, but nothing can compete with the whole outfit digging in and laying down the funk like they do on most of the album."
69704,2,Continual fun for ages 2+,"Of course kids are all different, this toy may not hold the interest of a child with little interest in pretend play cooking. However, I think the vast majority of children will LOVE it. I have a 2 yr old & a 4 yr old & both play with it constantly. Younger ones may not comprehend so much that they are decorating a birthday cake, but the facination of adding and subtracting the decorations (velcro candles, candies, strawberries) is great. I think the construction is good; nothing broken yet. Only down side to it is collecting up all those circles (candies/strawberries) & candles! I'd recommend this gift for boy and girl (I've got both)."
69787,2,Book Really makes you think.,I just love this book. I read a copy someone lent me and had to return to them. I then bought one for a gift and had to read it again before I gave it. Now I have to buy a copy for myself. It really helps with all the changes that are happening in this day and age.
69817,2,Not what you think but ok.,"Just finished this book, it tells a good lesson but I believe it is more meant for the child than maybe a grownup and working person.I admit this book does refresh that sense of get up and just do it feeling and the common sense that was already in you but really this book is better suited in the elementary school library.I will for sure be telling my kids this story one way or another."
69934,2,How To Say It To Seniors,"Excellent book for Boomers to read.Helpful insight into conversing with parents.Helpful for professionals dealing with the ""Greatest Generation."""
69948,2,Excellent Needed Information,"I have attended a seminar by Mr. Gordon. I purchased the book to do planning for my parents. The information has been invaluable! Everything of any importance is covered in the book, along with references to find out additional information, if necessary. I have recommended this book to several clients for review of their own personal situations.This is one of the best books you could buy on this subject.Robert J. Henkels, CPA"
69950,2,Sony SRS-T88-works great,"If you need a lot more sound than any laptop or mp3 player alone will provide, then get one.For its small size and weight, and the amount of sound it outputs, its awesome.If you want 100 watts of power, then get 100 watts.I got 4 watts, and it weights less than a cd player.Plus, I use 4x rechargeable 2000ma or 2500ma AA batteriesand im good for hours and hours.Hook it up to my laptop or my MP3 player and im a portable music station.It pans out on the highest levels, but often that is too loud anyways. 90% of the time, even 50% volume is enough."
69957,2,The Master of reading people.,"Not many books do I read twice. I read even less three times. This book deserves a three + times read. This man is a master communicator. Fortunately he took his time to put his life understanding and work into a book. I rarely give 5 stars, but based on content this one deserves it. It was very easy to read also.Congratulations Jef!"
70083,2,Good but noisy,the chair is good looking and comfortable. The problem is it makes a little noise from the first time.Easy assembly also (everything included)
70167,2,Super great,"Slim, well fitting. everything it's supposed to be. Pretty much the perfect workout accessory."
70276,2,Fleetwoods review,"I purchased and listened and enjoyed this CD - BUT this is not the original recordings. If you are looking for the original sound, look for another ""best of"". Also, there is no mention anywhere, by anyone, that this is not the original recordings."
70299,2,A Common Classic!!!,"I bought this album right after I bought Be. Be is, hands down, a solid album that anyone can listen to from start to finish. It just has Kanye's greasy hands all over it, which is too much for me. I must say, this album is a refreshing change from the hip hop you hear everyday. ""The Light"" is a solid song. If you are a hip hop fan and find yourself getting winded and tired of the crap that is being put out right now, cop this album. It's more than worth the 8 or 9 dollars you will spend."
70347,2,A fantastic trip thru classical and trad English/Irish music,"Would have rated album 5 stars, but for the lack of adequate documentation of the music on it, a shortcoming of many soundtrack albums! Otherwise, a very enjoyable album. It must be noted that some of the classical selections are adaptations of the original pieces. For example, the Schubert trio is significantly different than the original composition. As for the Vivaldi ""E minor cello concerto"", or whatever it is, I have not been successful in finding the original composition on disc, even after an exhaustive search on amazon.com. The 4-volume set of Vivaldi cello concerti on the Naxos label, which I just purchased, claims to be relatively complete, yet does not contain this composition. Can anyone out there help?"
70386,2,Nice toddler step,I like this because it is a nice construction. I bought the white and it blends in nicely. I just wish it was a little higher. We have a newer construction home and the bathroom counters are high so it is still too low for her to wash hands by herself for now.
70392,2,My favorite Michael Mann movie,"My 18 year old son and his 60 year old dad both love this movie. The casting is just about perfect - especially Robert DeNiro in a ""sympathetic"" role as a criminal. Al Pacino is also outstanding as a flawed but determined cop. Michael Mann does an excellent job of distilling LA both visually and geographically."
70408,2,"Great buy, great fun","My 2 yr. old daugher loves this bouncer. We researched the others out there and this seemed to be the best bet and is proving to be a great purchase. Very sturdy, great colors, inflates easily. Only thing - you have to be careful with more than one child inside playing, a little tight for two bouncing little bodies."
70443,2,An excelent book,"On the Banks of the Bayou is a wonderful story of Laura Ingalls Wilder's daughter, Rose, who leaves her home in the Ozarks to finish high school in Louisiana. She stays with her Aunnt Eliza Jane. The city is full of excitment, and Rose discovers she is an independent women with stong hoppes and dreams."
70445,2,good quality for the price,"good quality for the price it was packed will except for no return receipt attached good condition, i bought this for a gift and they likes it"
70469,2,Brutal Honesty,"What a heavy price to pay for jewerly. Kanye West wasn't lying when he made his video about children dying over diamonds. This was a really sad brutal truth about the murders that go on in South Africa because of diamonds. It's filled with violence. Although it's action packed, I thought the little romance between the reporter and the soldier seemed thrown in and it slowed the movie down and made it boring during those parts. It also makes the reporter out to be somewhat of the hero. I didn't like that either. Certain parts were just unrealistic like how the reporter seemed to always walk away with just a bruise after running from the rebels. Meanwhile the guys were all bruised and sweaty. But, in the end this was definitely educational, but very graphic. Maybe that was the point?"
70488,2,I'll never forget this album..,"This had to be my favorite 8-track when I was in college! I dearly loved this album..I didn't even know it was on CD. Bob, if you're reading this..thanks for 22 years of great memories"
70494,2,Eye rescue,Must use it before you go to bed as well as in the morning. It also takes a while for it to have an effect. It does however reduce the puffiness.
70524,2,raw blues,"Boston quartet does raw, rough and ready versions of old blues classics and obscurities. If you like the kind of blues found on the Fat Possum label, you'll definitely dig this. Great stuff!"
70525,2,Kirby's best game,"This game is VERY cool. Any one who liked the previous kirby game, or any one who loves N64 should enjoy this game. This game is kind of 2-D so some people may not like it. But it is still fun too play. It has many other fetures such as mini-games and sound check. Buy this game"
70646,2,Jury's still out on this one.,"The jury is still out on this one for me. I am new to Derma e, and overall love their products so far--my skin is very sensitive, and their products haven't caused any irritation. I have used this product for a couple of weeks and really can't tell if it's doing anything. I also bought the Derma e Hyaluronic Acid Rehydrating Serum, which I like much better than this one."
70655,2,IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL JUDGEMENT DAY,"A chance encounter with a stranger on a hiking trail near the Welsh border leads Robin Timariot into a maze of murder, intrigue and deceit. The story embraces a wide range of characters and human emotions and presents a sharp exercise in family in-fighting and ""looking out for number one"". Goddard has mastered the magical secret at the heart of all compelling fiction as he takes you into Robins'nightmare adventure.Each Goddard book is a real treat, and each is as different from the previous as night from day. Run, don't walk to your nearest bookstore....or library and hop on board the Robert Goddard Express."
70712,2,Good enough is pretty good.,"Bought this telephone to replace one that quit and it was about twice the price. But I find it just as useful and do not have any quality problems with sound or operations. Don't know how long it will last, but so far it has been good."
70715,2,What a READ!,"Finding Salliq was a good read! IT took me back (way back) with some of the music references. Made me think a lot about life's trials and tribulations. MOSTLY, it makes one think about the true power you have over your own situations, issues, and path. I enjoyed the book and the characters were hysterical!"
70736,2,GREAT TWO-FER!!!!,"My kids love these two movies. Unfortunately they love them so much they got a hold of the dvd's and scratched them all over. We were looking to replace them both, and wouldn't you know it, we found them here. AWESOME!Great price for two dvd's. I recommend this site to all.Thank you! My boys are happy again."
70783,2,Malta,This is a very interesting story about a photo recon pilot who got stuck at Malta enroute to Egypt. Much of the film appears to be authentic scenes of ships blowing up and bombs being dropped on Malta. As usual Alec Guiness is first rate. Many of the British period actors are in the film whom you will recognize. I liked it a lot. It is a much better film than many war flicks even though it has a lot of models being used in the air action.
70874,2,Hard life for a young Shaker boy.,The book was good. I recommend this book to any body who can deal with death. The book deals with things that happened in Vermont farm life in the early 1900.
70938,2,"Good Dictionary, useful for translating legal documents","I find this dictionary useful as it contains many terms that aren't found in other Sp<>Eng legal dictionaries. I give it 4 stars rather than 5 because it contains numerous basic translations (tio = uncle, ciclo =cycle, doctor = doctor, error =error, grupo = group, guerra = war, posible = possible, silencio = silence; etc.) that in my opinion don't belong in a specialized dictionary. Also, I purchased this after reading another reader's review, which stated that the dictionary contains translations of entire phrases, which is not entirely true.One to five-word terms are translated, but very few phrases (I've found two in the Sp->Eng section). Most of the entries are for 1-3 word terms. It's a good dictionary, but not the end-all of legal dictionaries."
70963,2,A Great CD,"This CD is wonderful. I aboslutely love the music, the beat, and the key signatures the songs are written in. Anyone who has gotten in my car and has listened has loved the CD. My friends always talk about what a wonderful voice Daniel has and upbeat the music is. I definitely recommend this CD."
71018,2,richard matters,"a great collection. matheson has a way of writing. he shows you how you can express more and be more intense with a simplistic style. it makes it easier to read and more understandable too. what he is real master at is describing how little things just grow to be bigger. like in mad house and legion of plotters. i couldn't really appreciate it. it was so well written that i felt just as irritated as the fictive person. strange this, i almost never feel with the characters in a story. a great haunted house story, a great.... Well, just buy it."
71051,2,Better than XP Plus,"If you prefer applications to games and screen savers, I think DME Plus is a good value at [money]when compared to XP Plus. It provides Media Player 9 Party, an alarm clock, dancers and some neat digital photo options. I believe that it attemps to integrate media XP features into standard XP Home OS. That's not such a bad idea. The jury is still out on whether they have done this or not. I am glad that Microsoft tried and have rewarded them with my purchase. ..."
71054,2,Det koster!!,"Det fungere, det kommer hurtigt, men det koster et importgebyr oven i hatten + naturligvis MOMS.Importgebyr er et gebyr postdanmark krver for at regne momsen, du skal betale, ud og for at opkrve den for staten.... Der skal naturligvis betales moms af gebyret ogs.Men varerne kommer og fungere upklageligt :oD"
71057,2,sounds good to me,i have read a huge amount of previews for this game and it does sound and look very good . it probaly wont be up to the standards of tony hawk 3 which is coming out later this year but it should be interesting to see . i am deffinetly going to buy this game as i am a big fan of skateboarding and i will write another review saying what i thought of it later on .
71064,2,Love this book!,"I have a copy of this on my Kindle, and I love it. It is nice to read when on a long walk, just plop down on a bench and read. It is one of his better books/essays in my opinion, and is fairly short. It should be required reading for anyone who considers themselves well read."
71081,2,"Very good, even with all the time.","Freelancer is a surprisingly good time, even though it is showing it's age a little. I bought this item because my computer is very outdated, and I wanted to play a new game. I was surprised at how satisfying this game still is. It feels open ended, but still keeps you moving towards a clear goal. The mod community is also excellent, and there are lots of fun mods to play with, and it seems more coming out every day."
71096,2,it delivers what it promises,"I read alot about mp3 players for quite awhile. I highly suggest cnet.com for great unbiased reviews. I LOVE my iclix. The only negative about it is it is only 2GB. Other than that, it does what it promises. The sound is great (that's with the earbuds that come with it) and it CRANKS. I have used the voice recorder a couple of times, and it is decent. The FM tuner is great when you are sitting still. I actually enjoy the flash games too. It downloads songs very quickly and is very easy to navigate through the system. This is my first player, and I expect to use the full amount of applications. I can't imagine needing more than what it comes loaded with."
71125,2,"Touching, thought provoking...","What a book! And what a nice man... For anyone out there who thinks they may not be doing such a great job at this parent thing it's a great read... you realise that you're actually not doing too bad, that you can't be perfect all the time and are allowed to make mistakes - and learn from them, because after all that's what they're for. It makes you think, then it hits you that however long your childs life is it isn't that long at all... I for one will take a little step back, take a deep breath and enjoy my son a little more."
71167,2,Good basic drill/driver for home projects,"Nothing fancy, but handles most household tasks with ease. Save a few dollars compared to the name brand versions. Handy carrying case."
71181,2,classic poems children will enjoy,"In 1965 my young daughter bought this book for her father. Every night each of our four children would select a poem to read to him and me. Soon they had some of their favorites memorized. It is a selection of some of the greatest poems ever written. I recently purchased copies for my children, their children and their children's children. I still read one to myself every morning with my first cup of coffee and it brings back such wonderful memories and keeps my memory strong."
71207,2,No Margin for Error,"Clear insight into the evolution of the Israeli Air Force, from it's beginning to the present. Written with insight into the personalities of all the individuals involved in the growth of the Air Force along with the politics of the enviroment. Really fun to read."
71227,2,Lowry Fan,"I really enjoyed reading "" Out of Control"". Mark is always Funny and informative. There was aLot in the book that I did not know about Mark. He had been thru a lot but continues to praise the Lord. A good Read."
71321,2,This is a hidden gem,I actually like this CD. My only complaint is that it was poorly mixed. It made me long for the days when I had a readily-available equalizer. The bass is hidden and the highs are so shrill that they hurt my ears. Real smooth guitar work!
71348,2,great music,well done on the great music you sing it really get me in the right mood it is so relaxing. when i am angry i just listen to you music and i get very happy. thank you Al Green
71364,2,Family history,"I love this character, and reading about his mother was very interesting. I began the series a few years ago, and have never been disappointed."
71370,2,Underarmour Shirts,"I was happy with the shirts, however when I ordered them I ordered one navy blue and one maroon. When the order was confirmed I ended up getting them from two different vendors which meant I had to pay shipping charges twice- one on each item. I am not happy about having to do this when it seems they could have come in one shipment."
71380,2,love it,"bardzo dobry smak waniliowy ,wspanialy dodatek do jogurtow,serkow,,koktajli owocowych.Uczucie sytosci przez kilka godzin.Z pewnoscia zakupie kolejny i bede polecac innym znajomym"
71438,2,Best Singer Ever?,"This album has found it's way into my regular rotation despite the fact that I'm not a particularly big fan of Soul or R&B. The music on this album is universal - and it's appeal is undeniable no matter what your musical preference may be.Green is the best singer I've ever heard, and I don't mean he has the best voice - he doesn't. Green's appeal relies in his feel for the music and his subtlety. He rarely screams or bellows - so when he does you know it must be important. Rather than singing loudly or busily, Green's pleasantly wavering voice employs a series of quiet falsetto whispers and guttural moans and groans to convey the meanings of the songs.My personal favorite, other than the obviously wonderful ""Let's Stay Together"" is his cover of ""I Can't Get Next to You"", complete with an acid-rock guitar solo.If you don't own this, you're missing something big."
71448,2,Their journey on bicycles with their children's book manuscripts among their few possessions is recounted here with pictures,"Curious George is beloved and known by adults and kids around the world - but few have heard of the history of his creators, Hans and Margret Rey, who had to flee their Paris home as the Germans invaded. Their journey on bicycles with their children's book manuscripts among their few possessions is recounted here with pictures, flare and drama. Borden uses primary resources, including Rey's own pocket diaries, to tell their tale in The Journey That Saved Curious George: The True Wartime Escape Of Margret And H.A. Rey, with Allan Drummond's drawings and vintage black and white photos throughout enhancing the biography and action."
71468,2,But....,"But, will never understand why the song ""Time and Time Again"" is not included. It's their first song that I heard and absolutely had to have, having heard it for the very first time on the ""I Was A Teenage Zombie"" soundtrack album."
71495,2,Amazon-great source for these hard to find items.,"We attempted to buy these replacement reels for our Black & Decker string trimmer locally and were unsuccessful. Amazon offered these at a great price and we jumped at it. Just what we needed and we got it in a timely fashion. Way to go, Amazon!"
71523,2,Big time saver for big jobs.,"The bag on the leaf vacuum is not really big enough for the piles of leaves I have, so getting this product to dump the leaves directly into the trash can seemed like a great solution.The only issue I had was that the top didn't stay on the trash can well due to the air pressure. This was easily solved with six cheap spring clips I got at the hardware store. Problem solved! With a trash bag in the trash can, and the clips holding the top together, it works very well."
71524,2,Excellent product & service,"This is a great airbrush. Actually, it is the second one a I get. I got the first one back in 1992, and it is still fully operational. I only got a second one in order to ""speed up"" production, when painting a model with several over laping colors.Botton line is, I couldn't be happier with it. Highly recommended!"
71555,2,Good Shoe,This is the second time we've purchased this shoe. They last and wear well. They're well made and the price is right. Delivery was fast.
71628,2,WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!1,"Garth Brooks is my all time favorite singer. I love ALL his work, but especially Fresh Horses. Many people (i have read) do not enjoy this cd. But i dont understand what there isn't to enjoy. I mean most of the songs on there, if not all, are REALLY good. My friends always want to borrow this cd, so i bought two, one for me and one for my friends to listen to. And if you think so what, well get this, ALL of my friends despise country music, but they LOVE this CD, and a couple others of Garth Brooks' cds. If you get the chance to buy, DONT HESITATE!! It is THE BEST!!! Hats off to you Garth!! :)"
71671,2,excellent mystery,"Dennis Lehane does it again!! He draws you in, and he gets you with the old twisteroo. This is a must read."
71683,2,get shuttered,have not finished reading the book but it is a page turner. the strangeness of the story stimulates the readers curiosity with no hint of what comes next. society's lack of knowledge about the inner workings of mental institutions raises the mysterious nature of the story. the end is unpredictable unloess you have seen the movie with DiCaprio playing the hero/anti-hero.
71853,2,Yay for SuperGrass!,"I love this CD ever since I bought it 5 years ago (has it really been that long?) and I still love it! Its happy and can be sort of sad and lost all at a frantic pace! When I first heard it I didnt know what to expect, but ever since then the Grass have been one of my favorite! too bad they never got much airplay in the states....they should have! Idiot radio people! anyways I highly reccomend this CD....its just really cool :)"
71863,2,GFB,"This book provides a very vivid description of the planning and strategy prior to and during the Gulf War. The authors undoubtedly had some bones to pick with the planners here, it describes our successes and failures as well as why we're still there today in a different manner than one would find in the official reports to Congress."
71877,2,awesome,"i got my charger i ordered and was very happy with it an for a great price , was happy to find it because i had lost mine and my kids started playing with my ds and was no way to charge it so i thank you .. very happy with service"
71887,2,Fast paced,"Good read, hard to put down. Couldn't put it down especially the last few chapters. Classic Harlan Coben writing style."
71909,2,Great stuff,"I've been a big fan of Bill Phillips for many years. His body for life program is an excelent and quick way to get back in shape in a healthy way.I'm very happy that Bill decided to publish this book where you can find many recipies to help you with a great nutrition plan in a delicious way.I already had some of the recipies from my Men's fitness magazine colection, but it's so convenient to have all this information together."
71916,2,"Wonderfully elegant, yet sturdy","I just unpacked and used my 8 plus 4 piece set of Oneida, and all I can say is WOW. It's just a gorgeous set of flatware, very elegant, yet sturdy enough for everyday use. I wasn't too sure when I ordered this set that it was the right design for me, but when I opened the box, the inlay on the handle is in a matte finish, with the outer curve a wonderfully shiny surface - a great complement. The wonderfully simple detailing at the base of the utensil itself is, in my opinion, one of the delights of this set. It's enjoyable to look at, and enjoyable to use.Overall, I think anyone who gets this will thoroughly enjoy it. This set will last me a good, long while, and is very worth the price."
71933,2,"Great Movie, Poor DVD.","This is an excellent movie. I am assuming you have seen it so I won't bore you with a review of the movie itself, wich I give 5 stars. But this DVD release is by no means a ""special edition"", a term that is used loosely today to sell more DVD's. That is why I deducted a star. There is a half hour making of wich is interesting, but I wish they would have done more. There is only one deleted scene, and although it is unique and interesting due to the fact that the ghosts were never digitally added, they could have shown more. Then there are little kids games and a classic Casper cartoon. They could have put more of the cartoons on. As far as the actual movie goes, the picture is crisp and the 5.1 mix is decent. I bet next year we will all be fooled when Universal re-releases it for it's 10th anniversary with the real special edition."
71954,2,"All-time classic, and still great after all these years","Simply put, Beggars Banquet, Let It Bleed, and Sticky Fingers are three of the best albums of all time. These remastered versions bring these classics to life in a way that the previous CD mixes did not. Thanks, Abkco, for finally giving these albums their due.I have not had a chance to listen to the SACD layer yet but hope to soon.One parting comment: down this list of reviews a way you'll find a one-star ""review"" by someone calling himself ""Loyalist,"" who's some kind of Beatles fanatic. The entirety of his review is this:""Ttile [sic] sound familiar? That's because the Beatles already released and [sic] album called Let It Be. The Rolling Rip-Offs strike again!""Loyalist, you need to get acquainted with something called The Truth. Let's compare release dates, shall we?Let It Bleed: November 28, 1969Let It Be: May 8, 1970Enough said."
71999,2,Fun for Boys,GOt this for my nephews birthday and he love it. He got it out and played with it right away. The boys loved it!! Would defiently get it again. My only problem was it was really simple and it cost more than I think it should. Otherwise it was alot of fun!
72151,2,The Village Lanterne,"This album is more like a Rainbow album than a Night album, the ""white fender"" (Blackmore's heavy rock guitar) featuring quite heavily. Joe Lynn Turner even turns up to do some vocals.Its a very enjoyable album, but at the end you are left thinking something was missing.Look out for Ralph McCall's ""Streets of London"", and Purple's ""Child in Time"" - although the Sisters have lovely voices you do miss Gillan's power. Still, look how it left his voice!"
72174,2,Keep expectations low and you will enjoy it...,"I did not bother with the cinema release and got the DVD because there was not much left to rent in the store. Truth be told, I enjoyed it because the film is less - USA is going to save the world! and more about the characters in this film. The premise is sci-fi simple. The Earths core is no longer rotating and that means we are all going to fry unless some scientists can get together and develop a unit that can drill to the Earths core and launch a load of nukes to start the core spinning again.Basically this is a B-MOVIE!.. and once you get that then it really does move along at a good pace. The story is character driven and the environments are pretty cool with lots of action along the way.In short go into this one with low expectations and you will enjoy the core. It is great B-Movie fun!"
72182,2,The Blu-ray is amazing!,"I won't comment on the show itself. Either you're a fan and know all about it or you need to see it and decide for yourself. It's the perfect definition of cult and, like all cult shows, a description can't explain it's appeal to the true believer.If you are a fan though (or interested in experiencing the show at it's best), the Blu-ray is the way to go. I own the DVDs and am amazed at the superior quality of the Blu-ray set. Vivid colours, sharp picture - the DVD version isn't even close, at least on a large good quality monitor. The original production values are the best I've seen so far for a TV show of this vintage."
72206,2,A powerful soulful journey of improvised sound.,"FARAI: HIGH ENERGY JITI is a hit in just the opposite direction: where MATARE encouraged relaxation and mellowing out, FARAI is a 'get up and dance' album somewhat reminiscent of the Bundu Boys, but not as dominated by electric guitars - though there is a lead and bass guitar.Strangely, there are no mbira players on FARAI: even Virginia Mukwesha confines herself to hosho (rattle) and vocals.To separate this group from other guitar-oriented jit groups, there are two marimba players: one a sporano marimba, the other an alto.There are also six female vocalists, plus Virginia Mukwesha: a male vocalist doubles on percussion and there is a (full kit) drummer.Few recording artists anywhere in the world would have the courage to show two such different sides to their musical personalities such as Virginia Mukwesha shows on these two radically different recordings."
72211,2,I like this book.,"This book is what I was expecting... nice photos of fence styles, historic info, and how to info. I am excited to get some bamboo and start building my gate or fence! I did not give the book 5 stars because I wish there had been more information about ""how to work with bamboo"" and ""descriptions of the different species"" used."
72313,2,Feelin froggy in the fog,I ordered this movie because it was shot on location where I work. Point Reyes National Seashore. The film is great fun. Each year I have a fog party and show it. The I send my guests out into the real fog. I live in the foggiest place on the west coast. Good cast.
72333,2,What I wanted,"This did the job I ordered it for perfectly. After reading the reviews, I did decide to drill holes and use the brass screws that came with it to mount it directly to the wall instead of using the flimsy looking hangers. The rack itself has a good color, length and sturdiness. I picked up 3, hung 2 for coffee cups and kept a 3rd in reserve in case I wanted to expand. That got tot he threshold for super saver shipping also."
72346,2,Green Eggs and Ham,"The book ""Green Eggs and Ham"" was a good book. It was about a guy named Sam who didn&#65533;t want to eat any eggs or ham, no matter how hard his friend tried to get him to eat some, because they were green. It teaches a good lesson about how some things aren&#65533;t as bad as they seem. This is an important lesson for kids to learn. The age level is better for younger kids like 1st through 3rd. I think this book was a good book that even I enjoyed."
72395,2,The best role-playing book in existence?,"This book is my favourite role-playing book ever. It contains absolutely no rules, and it contains a plethora of history and myths for Glorantha. It's not designed to give characters some new edge, as so many bacground books do for RPGs; rather it is designed to kick-start brain cells. This is a most excellent book."
72405,2,I love this product.,This product is amazing. I'm not too great with ties although I have a slight obsession with them. This makes wear a tie so much less of a hassle. No adjusting all day long. It makes my days much easier love it.
72407,2,Great Pumpkin!,"Overall I think the costume is very nice for the price. It fits well and although I haven't worn it yet for the purpose I bought it, the only problem I can forsee is it doesn't have a snap crotch so the whole outfit will have to come off to go to the bathroom!!"
72510,2,Super Comfy and Don't Ride Up,"These boxer briefs are perfect for my four-year-old son. He had issues with his ""whitie tighties"" riding up. These alleviate that problem. They are easy for him to put on himself, too."
72531,2,excellent dream pop - guaranteed favorite,"Pretty low profile band but a great set of songs, perfect summation of a sound. ""Your Street is Dark"" is the one dream-pop tune you would save if you only could save only one."
72551,2,An insightful autobiographical look,"Most of the reviews here are critical and misinformed. They appear to be written by disgruntled hisgh school students who have probably been assigned to read Lee's book as an effort to heighten their multi-cultural sensitivities. The kids miss the point. This is an excellent, sensitive novel about growing up in many worlds at once. Where ever Kai Ting is, is the wrong place, even home. His way of finding himself, finding a place, is through an unlikely venue, the local Y. There is a gritty truth thst comes off of every page here. Lee is exposing a great deal of his soul and, at the end, I felt part of his life. This was the first work of Lee's I read. My satisfaction with China Boy led me to the rest. He has much talent, a powerful voice and a sharp sense of humor... even when it hurts."
72581,2,I WISH THE TITLE HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE STORY,"All through the book (first time) I was waiting for the BOOK to show up.. but it seems marketing overcame honesty on this one. Still, the underlying message that evil wants everyone controlled, (limited choices,) so our heroes fight for everyone's freedom, (but not as an abstract goal..) Who else would put forth cheese as a reason to save the universe? I was slightly disappointed that a cat would pretend not to understand human speech (is this lying?) but really enjoyed the CATalog of the New York Public library. Of course! It was almost as fun as pronouncing the words in the glossary."
72586,2,Buckbeak's Flight- Beautiful,"I bought this CD just for Buckbeak's Flight. I will play it over and over. It is truly beautiful!!! I also found A Window to the Past is also gorgeous!!!The woodwind runs are always fun to hear...and so impressive (well for me as I cannot play such).This soundtrack is fun and more interesting than the last ones. Double Trouble is very interesting...a Harry Potter song with words.This CD has much more attitude than the past and is much more interesting and a bit darker, but not too dark."
72621,2,spy kids 2,"My daughter loves it, she is six and loves action kids movies. It is even entertaining enough for adults."
72629,2,A+++++ Vendor and Shipper,Received product very quickly and worked perfectly. Saved me some money by purchasing on Amzaon. Thanks!!
72714,2,Aweeessommme,"I put this muffler on my 96 civic and it sounds great! the only think wrong that the inlet and outlet sizes are not what they say they are -mine was 3.5"" out and 2.5"" in. but with 10 bucks in parts from auto zone it fit fine and was securely attaches. Overall good price and sounds great and ddeeppp"
72722,2,Good Book To Keep Onhand,"I got this book because I was interested in starting my own business correctly. While maybe not completely suited to the business I had in mind it did get my mind working on the avenues in which I needed to traverse when working on my start-up. Good book to have, lots of information that could be helpful."
72765,2,what would you do?,"When I was at university I was asked to write an essay on the ethical issues in this film. Wow, the whole idea really blows me away. What would you do it their position? It really is a tough one.It's one of those films where you can really put yourself in their shoes, not that anyone would want to. The story itself is touching and I think it's well made. I can't stop thinking about it.Oh.. and Vince Vaughn is so hot!ENJOY"
72766,2,Return to Paradise,Great movie for my Ethics class to watch and discuss the various ethical theories and how they play out in the movie.
72769,2,"Newbomb and the ""Knights"" rock!","This movie portrays the 50's ""hop shop car clubs"" that were once prominent in that era. Tony Danza plays a high school age ""chop top"" car loving member of the ""Hollywood Knights"". He is faced with heart breaking decisions and tries to find himself. The other character Newbombe Turk is portrayed by Robert Wuhl. He is the ""new age"" leader of the club with hillarious antics and jokes. The ""Knights"" are the practical joke gods of their time. ""Hollywood Knights"" is both hillarious and heart touching."
72795,2,true&sad,If you'd like to learn more about gypsy's life and their music you must buy or see this movie.
72835,2,"informative, a neccessary book","Being a Hare Krishna, I found the book revealed the frailties of the human mind without the direct touteledge of their guru. The book is well written, from a Karmi point of view, however unless people are informed about the true nature of the ISKCON movement, it can be misleading. It tells of some of the horrible events that took place on the land of a community, however, this leader, Kirtanananda, was very delusional, not a true bona fide guru. Read this book, by all means, but keep in perspective that any one side of the story isn't the whole side, and if Prabhupada had been alive at the time of those events, they would never have taken place. Read and appreciate the love for Krishna that the true devotees have in this book. Those who are not true devotees, as any religious community has, are just hypocrites."
72888,2,excellent,"Jeff Shaara does something most history teachers can't do-He makes history readable and engrossing. He does an excellent job of letting the events drive the narrative, while capturing the reader with the picture of the characters. As I read I could see the transformation of both John and Samuel Adams-in many ways reversing roles. In fact it was nice to see the heroes of the revolution treated as people on a journey to become revolutinaries. Finally, I think his greatest contribution to m y understanding was helping me see that neither side really understood the other and seeing the arrogance of empire (perhaps a lesson some of our current politicians could learn)Excellent"
72996,2,WHAT A VOICE!,"An absolute stunner! From ""Summertime"" (which is way better than Fantasia's from American IDOL!:)) to ""Slow Boat to CHina"" you will be amazed that this voice is coming from a teenager. In a time when Brittney's influence and popularity are happily waning, it's so cool to hear real singers doing real songs. These songs are standards for a reason people, they ar 50yrs+ and sound as relevant today. This kid has a future and look forward to hearing much more from her. Hey David Foster throw her and MIchael Buble and studio and let 'em do a duet cd."
73063,2,Chicago,"This Blue Ray disk is stunning to watch. If you haven't seen this Academy award winner (best picture 2002) it is a must. It answers the question ""can they make em like they used to?"" the answer to that is a resounding yes.If you are not ready for the close quick editing used at the start of the picture you might be left somewhat confused- but stay with it - a second viewing will reveal its importance in getting the audience to make the necessary connections between the characters and plot the course of the story.Well filmed - the sets and costumes are second to none and overall the movie provides a evening of good fun."
73075,2,Find it downing? Find it depressing? Find it disheartening?,"You should. Chicago is a musical that is not a happy sound of music kind of a show. It shows the underbelly of humanity-- how people get trampled, ignored and used all out of humanity. The main character is looking for fame, her lawyer is looking for money, her husband is just looking for love. The only one not to get what they want is the poor husband.When I see this film and musical it makes me re-evaluate what is imporatant. In a way this is a tragedy - with some catchy songs. If you understand what this film is trying to show you about yourself, society and our values you will appreciate it for what it is."
73195,2,The best of British,"Wonderful film. Ian Carmichael, Terry Thomas and Alistair Sim. The school of Oneupmanship, run by Alistair Sim, teaches social misfit Ian Carmichael how to get one over on Terry Thomas, the archetypal English Cad. Perfect casting, wonderful story. We are left with a level playing field at the end of the film on which Ian Carmichael gets the girl.The only bad news about this film is that the Americans have yet again remade a classic British movie in there inimitable style. Please do not confuse this film with its erstwhile impostor."
73289,2,Pretty decent book,I enjoyed reading the book. I felt it was accurate in its description of events that took place. Would recommend it!
73310,2,algebra 2 workbook,"Workbook was brand new, came in the time promised and was exactly what we wanted!"
73384,2,Very Helpful to fast moving start ups,"Our web startup found this collection of instructions and form guides VERY HELPFUL in forging ahead to incorporation. Concise, clear and methodical."
73387,2,Return of Disco/best cd single,"Melody of Love went number 1 in 1994. I was exposed to it by the David Letterman show. She blew the roof off the place. There in that special time of Ce Ce Peniston's Finally,Regina Belle's I'll Be Around,and Coles and Cliville's Everybody Sweat Now arose from the ashes like a great Phoenix Miss Donna Summer atop of all others. Get this one and On The Radio Vol.1&2 Greatest Hits and you'll be set for New Years. the Christmas Song is also on this Cd single,It's Great!Melody of Love also appears on Endless Summer with the 7""versions of her radio hits for the purist."
73389,2,My Husband Loves It!,"So far my husband has loved this Tree Stand. Is it well built and not too expensive. There are a few minor reasons I did not give a full five stars.1) It is a little heavy. However, it isn't too bad and it is a tree stand.2) The harness that coms with it was basically crap. My husband already had one though.3) The seat looks comfortable in the picture but when it arrived it was escentially a piece of plywood with a this foam layer around it. While it is a litte harder than it looks it still isn't horable."
73418,2,couldn' put it down!!! Nelson DeMille jsut got a new Reader,"I saw the Movie the day after I read the book. Of course thebook was a lot better but the movie was good too. Travolta was anexcellent choice. I found the book and movie to be pretty accurate as far as military life, being prior military myself, but I didn't experience any negative stuff most people precieve (mostly from literature) that women have. I liked the book because it wasn't as predictable as i thought it would be. It was one surprise after another. This was my first time reading any of Demille's work but certainly not my lasts."
73457,2,"Interesting presentation, well delivered...","Interesting video that shows Hopkins delivering a motivating, rousing presentation in a very professionally-shot video that's worth getting. This would be a perfect video to show to your sales team to get them a bit more motivated about selling, and to review some of Tom's classic verbal sales counters and alternative phrases.I've enjoyed learning from Tom's training for many many years, it's nice to see him in a modern video shoot in an upscale presentation format. Excellent value since also provides an audio CD in addition to the DVD. Slick production.This would be something I as a sales manager would want to have on my shelf, to show to my sales team.. then have them role-play out alternatives and customized phrases for specific selling situations. Nice work."
73467,2,"Jackie Chan Copied this movie""s martial arts",This is a unique martial arts movie with heavy kicks and slices.the movie is three amazing women fighting a demon under China.There are many slices and bloody hits so five year old shouldn't watch this because they might get very scared if they watch it.The plots is some times hard to swallow but the fight and weild demons make up for it.Its most definately a classic martial art movie and Jackie Chan copied this movie in some ways. The movie is getting rarer ever day get it now!!
73534,2,VAMPIRES IS DA BOMB,God this movie is so cool I saw it in theaters it was scary grusom and sexy...I LOVED IT..I think you people should see it it's a great movie..James Woods is great.Thomas Ian Griffith makes a great vampire. They should make another one with him in it.But it's a great movie. It's not like Blade..Blade is an action-vampire movie. Vampires is a vampire-action-horror movie.I think this is the sequel to the book Vampire$ By John Steakley. I also read that. And I have the soundtrack great songs.
73659,2,truly addictive,"a great expansion - it adds lots of new things, although in my opinion it's a bit pricey for an expansion CD (this is why I didn't give it 4 stars). Many new floor and wall patterns, as well as more characters. However, I find myself downloading many skins and patterns from thesims.com, too. Don't buy this if you have any big deadlines looming, because you won't be able to stop!"
73676,2,Ted Broer's MAXIMUM ENERGY.,"13, Feb 2000 As a recent graduate of Washington County Technical College in Calais, Maine in the Dietary Management Program. Mr. Broer has shown me more than I could have ever learned at school. I am a diabetic and I did drink a lot of (Diet Soda And ate a lot of pork also)If you like icecream do not buy the cheap kinds because all they are is poisonious chemicals. But after reading the book MAXMIUM ENERGY I have stop drinking diet soda. My wife and I are changing the way we eat and what we feed our children. We will not eat (shellfih or lobsters & crabs)any more after what we learned from the book. I Recommend this book to every one I know . If I had the money I would buy it for everyone that I do know. This BOOK is better than five stars,it should be given 5,000+ STARS.Oscar ToceFood Service Director"
73716,2,Performs as advertised,"Very easy out-of-the-box functionality. I've owned for a few weeks and it seems to be working well. I have a 750 sq. ft. basement fully finished but without A/C ventilation. I'd say the unit does not necessarily draw in enough moisture to cover the entire area, but it definitely makes a difference. Make sure the top air vent door is always open unless the unit will overheat. Don't bother using the internal bucket because it fills up in less than a day. The continuous drainage funtion is great, but opening is slightly too big for a 1/2"" inner diameter hose. I recommend buying the 1/2"" and stretching the opening to ensure a tight fit. The unit is very, very quiet which is fantastic."
73808,2,Terrific!!!!!!!!,"I didn't think William Shatner could top Ashes of Eden, but then, The Return wasn't out yet! I've read all the Borg books so far and this one was the best. I really think this one should have been the movie that First Contact was."
73809,2,This is the One!!!!,"The Animals went to hell went they went psychedelic. This set focuses on their earlier years when they were at their best: rough, raw, and bluesy. At this stage, early Animals were much better than the early Stones or the early Beatles. Early Stones and Beatles sound almost prissy by comparison. One foot in blues, one foot in rock, the Animals had a tough-guy sound full of strut and soul. It is a musical tragedy that they imploded and the sound disappeared. A lot of 60s stuff sounds damn silly today, but not this. This set will never grow old. There are a number of Animals compilations out there, but this is the one you want to get. This is the one highlighting the sound that put them on the map."

73920,2,Not a bad album...,"A friend of mine recommended this album to me. I must say I'm pretty impressed. I'm usually one who goes for more underground, less popular music, but these guys are definitely an exception. The same friend also recommended a band called Still Dreadful to me. They aren't as big as Creed, but these guys rock just as good. If you get a chance, check their CD out."
73928,2,"i bought this product in the past, works great.but this particular item was damage so i didn't use it","It, end up in the trash.I was so mad the product was not as described as advertise.once I got my refund I was happy. Thanks to amazon. And i will try to buy again but from a different seller .But like I said the product it self works great. I have purchase this item before from a different website."

74009,2,They ARE a Christian band,"This is the best recording that P.O.D. has out in the market to date. I'm not saying that Satellite and T.F.E.O.S aren't great albums, because they are, but keep in mind, the guys (Sonny and the rest of em') are Christian. You cannot say that they are too Christian on this album, because that's what they are, a Christian band. Aside from that, this album has deeper and smooth bass riffs, edgeier (is that a word?) and definately harder guitar riffs, and the best lyrics they have on any album. Even though you may not agree with the lyrics or believe what they talk about thats the truth. Oh yeah, Sonny has much better vocals on this album then any latter albums. He has a phatter flowing voice and can scream to the top of his lungs with the greatest of ease. GREAT ALBUM!! I guarantee you if you pick this album up, you won't be dissapointed (unless your totally ignorant of the message it is trying to portray) KEEP ROCKING FOR CHRIST YOUR GUYS!!!"
74120,2,"Great product, great price",Powerful software with multiple functionalities. Easy to use and exceptionally accurate. Favorite options: ability to edit PDFs and convert scanned files into HTML. Software saves a lot of time and pays for itself over the course of a couple months. Very satisfied. Can't beat the power for the price. Great product!
74126,2,alphabet magnets,"These are better than lots of magnetic letters since the magnets are inside the toy and can't fall out and be swallowed. They also include lower case which gives the child two alphabets. They don't last as well as one might hope, however, because they are made of hard cardboard and the edges get mashed up before too long.Melissa & Doug Magnetic Wooden Alphabet"
74155,2,"Excellent gift to colleagues, customers, etc.","This title by Lee Morgan makes an excellent gift to clients, bosses, colleagues, and even family! They will feel uncomfortable about the title of the album, but will not be able to complain, given the quality of the music."
74158,2,"Wonderful spicy, sweet flavor!!","Discovered this when our children brought it home the first time from Chiang Mai, Thailand. It is sweet with the wonderful Thai chili peppers infused into the sauce. Not ""screaming"" hot, but just right for those who like a bit of a ""kick"" to their sauces. Highly recommend for chicken. Also excellent on pork."
74164,2,Good for warm food,Mr. Bento is very useful for food that needs to be kept warm but I'm not so very happy about the food that needs to be kept cold. Overall its great to carry my lunch everywhere and have it stay warm.
74187,2,One of Connie Mason's best books ever!,"I have read 10 of Connie Mason's books thus far and find that I simply cannot put any of them down until the very last page has been read. Ice & Rapture has been my favorite but I am sure that I will quickly find another as I continue to purchase more and more of her novels. Ice & Rapture has it all for all you romance novel lovers out there!, romance, adventure and wonderful, real-to-life characters! Keep the books coming Ms. Mason!!!!"
74189,2,Call of Duty United Offensive,"This game was way ahead of its time back in 2003. Now it's 2010 and the latest edition of Call of Duty Black Ops, reverted back to the Quake 3 engine that United Offensive was built on. Most realistic player movement of any FPS and still a lot of fun. Many more active severs and players online for UO than Modern Warfare or WAW!"

74250,2,Simple and Elegant,"When I saw these lollipops for the first time, I was impressed. The flower design is not perfect, but it looks really elegant. It looks like a glass design. My wedding has a dasy theme and these are going to be party favors at my wedding.S"
74316,2,Great,"The product arrived on time and I have begun to take it. I have only had on capsule, but am optimistic it will help with my energy level."
74347,2,It's About Time!,I am so stoke to find this recording after loosing my CD several years ago. This CD is an absolute must for any aficionado of good jazz from the big band genre.
74356,2,Perfect for us!,"We've used this twice now. Once for jerky and once for fruit, both times the machine worked well and was easy to clean. Great deal."
74372,2,"Does what it says it will, but not for 64 bit","So I finally got skype and cut the cord on my land line. My wife and I use our cell phones primarily so it was fine to connect our skype use to my computer being switched on so I deceded to go for this low budget approach.Sadly it did not work on my new Vista 64bit machine, something that was not stated on any of the packaging or on the d-link web site. Fortunately I still have my old 32bit xp box and it works just fine on there.So if you have a 32bit XP machine, go for it. If you have Vista 64 bit then it won't work. Not sure about other windows versions."
74437,2,Marvelous Edition!,"I loved Troy the theatrical cut and absolutely love this new director's cut. It's more passionate, more blood, more power, more love, more everything. It looks and sounds absolutely stunning with 1080p/VC-1 video and Dolby TrueHD 5.1 audio. Beautiful crisp picture quality, a must for anyone's HD DVD collection. I highly recommend this epic motion picture."
74496,2,Traditional Christian Romance,"I remember my sister reading this book to me and my sister when we were growing up. I enjoyed it then and I enjoyed it when I re-read it recently. It's not earth-shattering in content, but it's a lovely story that it relaxing to read."
74508,2,Fantastic live album from the industrial pioneers,"In support of their comeback album, KMFDM released this live set chronicling their 2003 tour. ""WWIII Live"" is a simply awesome live album that shows the long running industrial outfit at the tightest they've sounded in years, with some great live sound quality and production value: something that their new label Sanctuary Records is known for doing (just listen to Ministry, Megadeth, Anthrax, etc.). ""Blackball"", ""Brute"", ""Stars & Stripes"", ""Revenge"", and of course, ""Juke Joint Jezebel"" and ""Drug Against War"" are brought to life live so intensely that it's going to be hard for even the most jaded KMFDM fan to not like this. Although it would have been nice if a double disc live album covering more of KMFDM's material would have been released instead, this is still an excellent live album, and a must own for KMFDM fans."
74513,2,A wonderful translation of a great play,"A second reading of ""angry reader's"" comment should make it clear that it is a Freudian joke. I don't know why you guys are so stinting with your stars. This is a beautiful translation of one of the great plays."
74617,2,Great across-the-curriculum math resource w/ gorgeous art,"I can highly recommend this book to parents and teachers. It's well-written with characters that come alive through some of the nicest children's book art work I've seen this year.We used the tanagram puzzle pattern at the end of the book, and went on to make up our own, too. I think it's an excellent introduction to geometry.Plus we talked about ancient China vs. China today.You hear a lot about ""math across the curriculum"" and this book is such a great example of how that can work well for kids.Outside of the classroom, my son wants to read this book at bedtime, too!"
74627,2,"""A unbelievable, historical and unforgettable story.""","This story was intriging and interesting to me because it is based facts about an Indian girl named Karana. Karana, who spent 18 years alone on a island off the coast of California in the early 1800's. I admire her courage while waiting year after year for a ship to come and take her away. Her faith was amazing!, her story of survival was unbelievable! Once I started reading Island of the Blue Dolphins, I had a hard time putting it down!"
74711,2,One of my favorite Pern books!,"This is the first book I read of the Pern series, and I loved it! I've read the entire series and this is definately on of my favorites. Of any of the characters Anne McCaffrey has created (at least the in the books I've read so far) Lessa was the most well developed person. I don't know why the author seemed to turn against her in all the other books! Other great characters in this book inclued, F'lar, Master Robinton, F'nor, and the Dragons!"
74934,2,Just right for my camera.,"This bag is perfect for the Nikon D40 for on-the-go shooting. It's not for all your gear, just the camera and a few extra memory cards -- you'll need a bigger bag if you want to carry all the inventory with you. It has an adjustable strap to loop over your sholder or you can hang it on your belt if you prefer, or simply carry it by the bag's handle. It's what you need when you want to travel light."
75004,2,A fascinating collection by a great American author.,"One of Miller's earliest books,and considered to be thesecond in the Tropics trilogy, this is a collection ofshort sketches (for lack of a better term) by a young HenryMiller using the mature writer's voice that makes him sucha powerful speaker. With pieces like ""The Angel is MyWatermark"", a hilarious self-portrait of Miller in Parissuffering an excess of artistic inspiration, to a tenderreminiscence of his father's New York tailor shop, thisbook contains a side to Henry Miller rarely seen throughthe publicity but known to his careful readers; a sidethat is philosophical, spiritual, and funny. It remainsone of Miller's best and most enduring books."
75096,2,conversations with my old dog,My friend liked it and sent on to a family member who just lost his dog. Some stories inspiring and relateable.
75120,2,Using a computer through your TV,"Great product. If you have a VGA port on your TV (15 pin), and your computer isn't DVI. This is for you. A plus for a monitor replacement. I am enjoying my PC in full thearatical sound."
75145,2,Harry meets Steely meets Chet,"Though big during the New Wave era, Joe Jackson was a fresh mix of Steely Dan, Chet Baker and Harry Connick Jr. A versatile recording you play as background or even dance to. The sultry, latin ""Cha-Cha Loco"" was one of the bigger hits that makes you want to start moving. ""You Can't Get What You Want"" is another popular one that evokes big band days. A fun, sophisticated CD."
75161,2,One of 2001's Best movies.,"Very faithful to the book and simply an Amazing movie. It's based on J.K. Rowling's Popular books, it's about a Orphaned Boy who is actully a Wizard and is sent to a special School where hegets training for a year to become a full fledge Wizard. It's such a brilliant and visual triumph which will be a classic in the Fantasy hall of fame with: "" The Dark Crystal"", "" The Wizard of Oz"", "" Labyrinth"", "" The Princess Bride"", "" Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Rings"", "" The Neverending Story"", "" Conan The Barbarian"" and "" The Last Unicorn.""A must see! but it may scare children under 7."
75213,2,I love it,"I love this product, not only looks great on my phone but the functionality is awesome!. I have friends that own razrs and asked me were I got my case, two of them already bought one like it"
75215,2,Cute but Not so Comfy,"I may just have to break these in, but they fit a bit awkwardly at first because of the material. However, this is expected with rainboots and these ones seem very durable. Overall these are good boots."
75272,2,Jeffrey Osborne - Stay With Me Tonight - Fantastic Osborne CD,"This album brings back lot of memories for me. It was great in 1983!, and even better today. There is not a dud on this entire 'album' ;-). Don't you get so mad. We're going all the way. Stay with Me tonight. Awesome."
75466,2,Could not put it down,"It's a funny story at times. It's a sad story at times. It has the feeling of living right there on the street with the characters. All kinds of middle life struggles going on. Trying to stay fit as a 20 year old, midlife pregnancy, a husband that can't seem to talk to his wife because of his grief, an elderly eccentric neighbor, and on and on. Don't miss the chance to read this book............It's fantastic!!!!"
75487,2,Fascinating and Objective View of the 14th Century,"A Distant Mirror is a worthy addition to Barbara Tuchman'sreportoire of historical works. She brings to life the eventsof 14th century Europe and exposes chivalry and the churchfor what they really were: Corrupt people subjugating thepopulation of Europe.She uses the life of Enguerrand de Coucy as the centerpiece ofher treatment of the times. A prominent, but historically obscurenoble, Coucy is shown vividly in all his elegance at court andbloodthirstiness in slaughtering peasants who attempted to asserttheir freedom.No one can come away from this book without seeing the 14thcentury in human terms.Ms. Tuchman's work, as are all of her books, is a challengingread. Her grammar, although impeccable, is complex and imaginative.Not for the light reader, but fascinating for anyone who wantsto learn about history without sugarcoating or nationalisticslanting."
75489,2,FUN BALL WITH FUN RATTLE SOUNDS,"My baby took a little time to like this ball -- he doesn't pay that much attention to the tags, but now he likes the big soft ball to wrestle with ocassionally and he likes the jingley-rattley sounds. He is not interested in rolling it. He has a favorite tag, but doesn't focus too much on the tags. He enjoys it mostly when I hold a tag and dangle the ball around by his face making it make noise and sort of make it bounce-bounce-bounce (like dribbling the ball while holding the tag) ... he also likes when I through it way up in the air and catch it ... maybe he will eventually like playing with it himself when he's older (he's 10.5 months old). But I do like that it is a cushiony soft ball, so he doesn't get hurt. And I think the times when he does play with the tags it is good for his motor skills and exploration of the differences in the tags."
75514,2,A great read for planning a smooth SMS installation,"This is a fine book for those who are in charge of deploying SMS 2. The author draws on plenty of experience to warn you of potential trouble. If you are looking for a detailed ""how to"" manual, this is not your book. If you want guidance on network and resource planning or are looking for help in how to deploy, this book is definitely worth it."
75565,2,works as expected.,I have been using K&N filters for all our cars. I do not hesitate to buy when K&N offers it.
75573,2,Good entry in the series,"I liked this one a lot more than the last one because it had the things I love about the series - the family, the ranch, the community. The author writes so well about these things. However, I was disappointed by the violent quality of the ending - it was not an easy read. It was also the first book in the series that I felt was heavy handed with the author's religious beliefs."
75672,2,A good text.,"A decent book for learning cosmetology, I think I prefer it to my Milady text but for me its all in the teacher, not the text. Pivot Points methods are good and they will give you lasting foundations in haircutting that are useful beyond 'just the basics'."
75744,2,A Wonderful Presentation!,I had looked for this item on MP3 Downloads but the French Version is the only one available so I looked for a CD which had both the French and English Versions having heard the English while in London. It was Fantastic! The CD has Six Tracks with variations on the above two selections. While it is a bit pricey it was worth the price paid. I highly recommend it for those who enjoy her music!
75805,2,A great Pop/Latin musician returns with a smooth Jazz style.,"Great sound, smooth music, and imaginative artistry with a sensitive touch. To me, a high point in Alpert's career. I think everyone will like this album."
75865,2,The most important book I have read about back pain,"I was in severe pain with three herniated disks at L3,4 and 5 when I ordered this book. I read it in pain when I could not barely walk. I was very emotional reading it as I was feeling despair and having a grim outlook on life. Back pain is not a terminal illness, but it feels like your life is over. As I got through the book, I realized he was 100% perecent right about the mind-body approach combined with stretching a healthy life. His medical approach also matched exactly what I was hearing from my physical therapist. His words resonated very deeply with me and I am much better now after many months of working on my natural healing. The main thing, there is no quick fix, only a long term committment and approach to a healthy back. Thank god for this book. I would have caved to surgery unnecessarily."
75936,2,Great Read,"Before I read this book I felt that there was nothing wrong with the Harry Potter series if you took it for what it is: fiction. But I soon realized after reading this particular book and MANY others defending both sides of the argument, that they are a real danger. Although fiction, the Harry Potter series has a profound effect on the reader at the subconcious level. It may sound like total nonsense but these books provoke an almost insatiable desire to gain these powers for ones self, which then leads one to look into such things as Witchcraft and the Occult. It may seem far fetched, but it's incredible how much of an effect media like Harry Potter can have on an individuals starting at the subconcious level. It's completely undetectable, making it an even greater threat. This book is excellent because it raises awareness of this real danger not only for Catholics, but for everyone with a solid Christian faith."
75985,2,I sleep like a baby,"I use this item as a sleep aid more than anything, yes it cleans the air, but it also has a pleasent white noise that puts me right to sleep. This is an upgrade from my older model that lasted about 6 years running every night. I cant live or sleep without this thing."
76055,2,had it when I was 20,got it again when I was 55 such a good album I could not forget it really switched on Classic rock
76087,2,Good kit,"Just moved to the US from the UK, and needed a multiregion player. I've had a few players before, but this has to have the easiest region free code entry I've come accross - literally took 10 seconds.Apart from that, it's a good quality upconverting player, and the enclosed HDMI lead makes it a bargain. I've not found a disk yet that upsets it, and I've got a fair few that upset quite a few other players.Downsides are the lack of *16 fast forwarding - 2,4, 64 are the only choices, which is a shame as 4 is too slow, and 64 too fast when you want to search for a scene. I can forgive it this however, due to its other qualities."
76099,2,Jay-Z: Life and Times of Shawn Carter Vol. III,"This album is real. Jay-Z has done it again. Despite his run-ins with the law, he manage to prove his innocents and keep right on schedule with his release date. Shawn Carter is truly a poetic genius, I thought he was sure to let something phoney slip out after his recent success with ""Hard Knock Life Vol. II"" but make another great album."
76105,2,You won't be dissapointed!,"I first heard of The Calling when I attended a Lifehouse concert back in September in Milwaukee. They were AWESOME. Great vocals, great lyrics, great sound. I couldn't believe how talented they were because I'd never heard any of their music before. Several days after seeing them live I went out and got the album. I've been playing it almost non-stop ever since! If your interested in listening to new stuff or you like Lifehouse, you should seriously consider picking up Camino Palmero. I promise, you won't be dissapointed! Bonus: Alex Band, the lead singer, is really hot. There, that should get you ladies interested!"
76112,2,excellent early Earring,"This is a solid album from the early era of this fine band. Silver Ships, All Day Watcher, Brother Wind (excellent drum solo by one of rock's best drummers) and Thousand Feet Below You are some of the better tracks. A must for Earring fans. P.S. As Amazon makes some of these rarities available they should be grabbed. As American Earring fans know, not too many of their albums are available in the U.S."
76212,2,Not bad,"I bought this with the Bostitch reconditioned compressor, and happy I did. Comes in handy with other tools. Had I seen a kit with more brass fittings, I probably would have gotten that instead, but this is sufficient."
76249,2,I Loved It!,"Stellar performances of the variations and the sonata. Mr. Glemser has command of both pieces, playing with intellect, imagination, humor, warmth, virtuosity, sensitivity, clarity, energy and vigor...and a remarkable tonal palette. The inclusion of the opus 3 results in nearly 75 minutes of marvelous music. A ""must-have"" for your library!"
76252,2,Awesome,"This is a great toy for many reasons:Construction: It is well-made, and the material is very soft. The eyes are fabric so there is no need to worry about small parts coming off- it's perfect for toddlers!Colors: I have been using this toy to teach my son colors. The colors are bright and vibrant.Size: It's a medium size- it's a decent size and yet small enough for a toddler to pick up and walk around with.I think this is a really cool toy, especially because it offers something that's fun to look at and play with for kids who aren't into traditional stuffed animals, or for the parent who wants something a little more unique and fun for their kids' collection."
76295,2,Good product..but Way too sweet,"This is good tasting product. There is no smell or no bad after test. Highly recommended.However, the sweetner is way too sweet and if you don't like too sweet, you may not like it.I think it is tolerable since it provide good amount of protein."
76327,2,A good sci-fi thriller,"The book is essentially about the reproduction of dinosaurs through genetic engineering with the aim of recreating and controlling them in an amusement park located on a remote island for the sole purpose of earning enormous profits. Of course, the masterminds behind this farfetched scheme failed to consider that the dinosaurs lived millions of years ago during another age in different climate conditions and that their behavior could not be controlled by man nor security measures installed at the park. Predictably, the predators are the main threat to the unlucky party of experts dispatched to the island. T-rexes, a dilophosaurus and dozens of fearsome velociraptors escape their confines through their savage, ferocious cunning as well as man's ignorance of the animals they attempt to reproduce. Michael Crichton's novel is heavy on technical details and medical theories that slow down the narrative in places, but the story remains a fine thriller."
76359,2,Great Book,"I used this book as a classroom guidance lesson. The students all loved the story (as well as the teachers). It teaches the difference between tattling and reporting. So now, when a student comes up to a teacher they ask the student if they are reporting or tattling? The students definitely know the difference now. It even comes with a coloring page at the end of the story and for the price you can't beat it!"
76451,2,Great printer...does more stuff than youc an imagine,"This printer is great. Better than most of the Epsons I tried. It's built very well, too.Also there is a way to enable DVD printing...use your imagination (ie google :) )"
76452,2,pretty good,"I kept getting the feeling that there was too much cut from this movie. I'd love to see an uncut version... of course, maybe it's just wishful thinking.. you know, that some of the holes in the movie would be filled in. Still, overall it's a good movie, if you can get past the little inconsistencies and parts that they do not bother to explain."
76487,2,horse whisperer book,"I was asked to purchase this book as a gift for a horse owner. After I ordered it and read the reviews I decided to order one for myself as well. Both books came on time and were in great condition. I've just finished reading my copy and thoroughly enjoyed it. I am a former horse owner and feel I would have benefited from Buck's advice at that time. I would be very interested in attending one of his clinic but it looks like he is booked solid for the rest of the year! Too many people, both in the past and in the present do not regard the horse as a sensitive companion - and you have to understand that as they are a prey animal they have a lot fear that you need to be aware of. they do not deserve the harsh treatment they have been getting - through neglect, abandonment, or the whole idea of slaughter."
76532,2,Great Service!,The seller was quick to ship this keyboard out. The item was exactly as described and shown in pictures. The item worked perfectly.
76603,2,The Battery Works...,"This battery works fine for my HP DV1000 laptop. My old 12-cell battery died after putting in almost 4 good years of work. with this battery I get ~2.5-3 hours of battery life. It's like having a new computer again, after all but 3 of my cells in the old 12-cell battery died and I had only ~45 mins life.Everything arrived in a timely manner, and there were no issues with the seller (NewMP3technology).One note: when I began using this battery, my AC adapter would get hotter than I remember it being with the original battery. I'm not sure if this is due to the battery, or the cable has been getting old (but before this there was no issue with the cable & I was using it, with no battery to power my laptop.) In any case, now I need a new cord, due to a portion of the cable failing and overheating.Again, not sure that if the cable failed from overheating, or overheated due to failure (or if this is linked to the battery), just fyi."
76639,2,the only one that works,Unfortunately my Canon MP830 will only use Canon cartridges which are expensive. having said that I love my Canon all-in-one.
76705,2,Not Just for Girls,"I was a little put off by the Barbara K logo, but it had what I was looking for. I wanted an ""upstairs"" screwdriver, one to keep in a drawer for little repairs upstairs without having to go to the well-stocked workshop in my basement. This isn't a girlie-man tool, it's a solid, journeyman screwdriver. Magnetic bits of enough sizes and a light that either shines where you're pointing the tool or detaches. The only thing more I would have liked for this type of tool would have been a ratcheting mechanism."
76729,2,A Lifetime on the Riverbank,"I, too, was introduced to Wind in the Willows at a very early age - around 4 - by my grandmother who read it to me over one long summer. From that summer on I understood the power and beauty of words. I loved ""the taste"" of all the big words in that book and found it so much fun to learn them. Forget all American theories of reading which simplify everything into pablum. Very young kids can deal with these ""complex-branching"" sentences and the sophisticated vocabulary, plot and character development. After 50 years of reading and teaching literature my copy of Wind in the Willows illustrated by Arthur Rackham is my treasure. I believe that Rackham was nearly completely paralyzed during the last year when he made these wonderful illustrations. A must for every child! ... and every parent who missed the experience!"
76790,2,Riggs Workwear Jeans Review,"Bought this pair of jeans online from Australia. Slight concern that it would not fit. However, no issues. Jeans are well made, fit well and are very comfortable. Only slight criticism is weight of jeans. Quite heavy but this probably reflects the hard wearing nature of the jeans. Overall very happy with it."
76832,2,This is a good book!,"If you have ever wondered what it could be like at the end of the world, this is a great example. It has action, drama, and comedy. The characters are very believable. If you are a Christian, this book is a great example of how we will be taken home. Overall this book should be THE best seller of the year. -Grant Grissom"
76889,2,Fun book for bookaholics.,"People that read alot will like this book. It is a light, fun read.Each Chapter is a letter. So chapter 1 is A. 2 is B etc. In each chapter Jacobs discussing what is going on in his life we he reads it and a few interesting tidbits he learns. In the P's he learns that Pythagoras invented the square root it had a picture of the number 16 displayed as four 4's in a square so the the bottom 4's were the ""square root"" (4x4).I found myself laughing out loud at several parts of this book at the authors sarcastic humor.The book is about one mans intellectual quest to read the entire encyclopedia Brittanica and get all the knowledge and bragging rights that come with it."
76937,2,Peace at every doorstep!,"Peaceful Parents, Peaceful Kids is one of the ""number of points"" self-help books that are so popular these days. The opening message that peace in the family begins with peace in the parent clearly moves us in the right direction.Author Naomi Drew has already had a hit along the lines with Learning the Skills of Peacemaking, also aiming Public schools. We can't just place the blame on television, school, other kids, or lack of time, not if we want to actually address the problem. Drew's some of her imagined resolutions are a little too elaborate, she uses concrete, realistic examples. It's important to aim high when you're planning a successful family. Even if you only manage half the book's aims, you'll be much better off. The author breaks the big job of bringing peace to the family down to seventeen points. Parental actions should be guided by love, compassion, fairness, respect, and integrity and nurture these attributes in children. Indeed! Peace is at every doorstep!"
76939,2,Good basic coffee maker with a few extras,"I've had this coffee maker for over 2 years now (mine ""might"" be a slightly different model, but it looks the same and has the exact same features). It has worked wonderfully and brewed a nice pot of coffee. The timer is easy to set, and the brew strength and burner temp control are very nice features. I haven't used the filter it came with as I only use filtered tap water anyways.My only complaint is they should have put a backup battery in the clock. Any time the power goes out, I've got to reset the clock. That and my cup of coffee isn't instantly available when I stager out into the kitchen. Luckily it brews fast and the sneak-a-cup feature can provide quick relief.Overall I found this to be a great standard coffee machine. For the price it has all the features I need."
76958,2,A very useful health reference book,I saw a copy of this book at a friends house and realised that I would find it very helpful as it gave sensible and useful guidance for medical problems.
76996,2,2 GB iPod Nano White,Fine iPod but disappointed no instruction manual came with it. I read everything on the help web site and still don't know enough to really operate it efficiently. But the quality of sound is great.
77026,2,They love it!,"My little ones love this movie. It was an early Christmas present and they watch it a lot before Christmas. Seriously, who gives Christmas movies as present on Christmas Day!!!???"
77122,2,A Page Turner you won't want to put down...,"Never having read a William Diehl novel, I regret waiting so long to read this book. You are pulled into the pages by the characters and events, and held there in suspense by this richly written book. Whether the time period was set in the early 1900's or in 1945, this book holds your attention - be prepared to read this nonstop! You won't want to put it down."
77213,2,Wonderful DVD,"We bought this DVD for two of our daughters for Christmas. They loved it. They were laughing so much at Quack, that it was hard not to laugh with them. I really like the way the shows are written, it presents the issues from a childs view which really helps them understand how things work and what causes things to happen. This DVD along with the other Peep and the Big Wide World DVD's are a wonderful and entertaining way to teach young children about science and the world around them."
77238,2,Good for quick jobs,"I've trued a few doors and done some small projects with it and it works fine. I thought it was a little difficult to set up. Once you have it where you want it, don't mess with it. Not for large or serious projects."
77274,2,Indispensable.,"For any kind of wood shaping or removal, this tool will get the job done in record time. I use it in my shop on the sailboat I am building... Lots of pieces of this boat need to be trimmed, shaped, planed, etc and the surform shaper makes quick work of it. Plus, you get a highly aerobic workout! Buy one now, and make sure to get an extra blade or two."
77382,2,informative material,This book provides a nice review of Office 2003 and is very helpful learning to use the different areas of it.
77423,2,A delightful work of FICTION.,"I read this book for what it was...a wonderful book of fiction, about mythical characters. But on another level, Santa and Pete is a story about family, giving, closeness....values anyone, black white or whatever, must treasure. I sincerely wish those who would blast the book for being ""historically inaccruate"" would recognize it for what it is -- a ""novel of Christmas Past and Present"" loosely based on historical events -- and get over their own insecurities/prejudices/attitudes."
77446,2,Good for those who need something a little non-traditional...,I had to get this book for my Intro Physics class. It's a good book and it's great at getting the basic ideas across. It's not your average text-book by any means though. It's truly the same as reading a cartoon strip. The font is scribbly and there are characters sort of explaining everything along the way. It's a descent book and there actually are some funny moments.
77504,2,"Borrowed it 4 days ago, brought it today","This is simply one of those games that are must own games on the Xbox. This game that seemed like it was dead on the saturn, just bursted alive with alot of life on the Xbox, this game has superb gameplay, and it's also very fin as well. The graphics take control of the Xbox's power and introduces stunning graphics. The replay value, well I dunno, I'm like half-way on the game, and it's quite a bit hard cuz I keep dyin to those..., but I'll get through em' eventually. Overall this game can't be missed out on, and if u have a Xbox, u shouldn'd hesitate to get this game. It's one of the best games you'll find this year"
77520,2,Great digestive supplements,"I have terrible digestive problems, and these super enzymes have helped digest my food tremendously. No gas, bloating, or indigestion when I take this product."
77601,2,FIRE ON THE MOUNTAIN,"The description on the page regarding ski resorts is rather different than the movie. Buddy Ebsen & Ron Howard star in this contemporary western which explores the rights of the government versus the rights of the individual. Ebsen plays a ranch owner in Arizona determined to live out his life on his own land, warding off government interference. Ron Howard plays Lee Mackie returned to the land of his youth, a neighbor of Ebsen's who is caught up in the buyout of land by the government to use as a missle testing site. A fierce battle rages over landownership that forces everyone in this rural area to choose side. Very pertinent to arguments raging today regarding the individual versus the government. A movie well worth viewing."
77665,2,Love it!,"I love the Mega Stress formula. It has extra B vitamins that I need. It has helped with my Carpal Tunnel tremendously.A friend of mine recommended taking high doses of vit. B for it, and well, she was absolutely right. Give this time thoughto help. It may take a bottle or 2, but you will notice that you are much better. Also, since vit. B tends to only stay in yourbody about 2 hours, the time release is the way to go."
77725,2,would like to buy or copy this album...(please help me)...,"i've been looking for this album: (big hard disk,vol.1and/or latour album.(the one that has the song blue).it is 1 of my favorite sounds of all time....thank-you...!:-)"
77770,2,A must have for any designer!,"This is a great book for all kinds of artists. The presentation and content brings an international view of the use of color and color psychology. It makes you think twice about your color palettes, and with great results.A must have."
77807,2,Fascinating Contemporary Portrait of a Megacity,"While Venezuela's leader, Hugo Chavez, is frequently in the news, little is reported about life in the capital city of Caracas. This visual diary and commentary provides a fascinating contemporary portrait of the living conditions in Caracas. While squatter settlements, known as ""barrios"" in Venezuela, have been around for decades, the extent to which the formal, planned urban areas in Caracas have been surrounded and overtaken by the informal city is astonishing. In the 60's there were many ambitious plans to develop and redevelop major parts of the city, but these have, on the evidence presented here, not materialized. Instead, people have continued to migrate from the rural areas, drawn by the allure of the big city and the possibilities for a better life. Breathtaking."
77820,2,Everyone should read this book!,"Whether you have children or not you should read this book. Everyone should know and be thinking about ways to help our children, nieces, nephews and friends to fight back in a world where anything goes and goodness doesn't prevail. Anything you want, you can get, no matter the price. Materialism is valued and moms and dads are taken away from what really matters, to pay for all this stuff.This book is chalk full of resources for everything you could imagine. I myself am going to check out magazines for young ladies. Great book, well written and one to be pulled out to be re-read!"
77846,2,Red Rabbit--better than you have heard,"Many, many reviewers have taken their time in utterly bashing this book. Sure, it does not have the high intensity action of some of Clancy's older books, but for that it is no less interesting. The reader should beware that this is not a fast paced, action packed book, but it, while slow, is ultimately quite worthwhile. One quibble about the book was that while it seemed to take place in 1980-81, there is little mention of Pope John Paul II's first trip to Poland in 1979. That truly caused an earthquake in the communist world."
77884,2,It's all good!,"With 2 kids and a cat, its near impossible to have a clean floor. Mixed with 2 working parents and it gets even harder. We scheduled our Roomba to clean the floors 3 times a week when we were not home and our floors have never been cleaner. Its nice to be able to walk on the floor barefoot again without crumbs or dirt sticking to my feet. We have not had any problems at all. We've used it on hardwood, carpet and tile."
77908,2,Very Nicely Done,"I chose this CD for my advanced beginner class and am overall satisfied..The music selections are upbeat, classic and nicely performed. The only drawback is that the barre selections are only run once through so you have to repeat the music for the left side."
77946,2,Exactly what I expected,"These towels came just as pictured and match the setting perfectly. They were a little stiff out of the package, but once washed came out nice and soft. Good price, shipped when promised, very satisfied."
77981,2,Excellent,"Parker comes through. Going back and forth between new hero Jesse Stone and a criminal planning the heist to end all heists, the excitement builds towards a satisfying end. One fly in the ointment, Stone hasn't been able to shake his selfish (...) ex-wife. In stalker like fashion, she has followed him to Paradise and installed herself. . . not wanting him and but not wanting him to be free either., Why is it when a male does this to an ex-wife he is considered evil, but Parker has this creature do this, and some how he actually thinks it's romantic or something. Can't help but wonder about Parker's mentality. But a good read, nonetheless. Hopefully he will see the light, and dump her. She really adds nothing to the story."
78001,2,Slayers Is Way Past Cool (From Phenox08),"The funny thing is I saw Slayers By Axodent. some kid was watching it over My schools Distant Learning Lab Tv and I got to watch it for my study hall. After that I was Hooked. This is the Greatest Anime Ever (Next to Sailor Moon Of Course) I plan on getting all the videos. And I suggest you do to They great, Enertaining, and Funny. I just Love Amelia, She's Funny and Clumsy But Keeps on going, and dosen't Zel and Amelia make a cute couple :) Trust me on this This Anime is a Defined MUST BUY. :)"
78046,2,It tells the story about a great Pharaoh and a strong woman.,"It's the best book I've ever read! It's so fascinating and interesting to read and you get to know so much about the old Egyptian Culture. Furthermore this historic novel, or how you could call it, is full of passion and the characters are very strong and really impressive."
78098,2,Funnier than a trip to Disney Land!,"This is a great film and anyone who has given this a bad review obviously has no sense of humour. This is the funniest gangsta film around that i have seen, and one of the best comedies i have seen too. Loc Dog (Marlon Wayans) and his grandmother are two of the best characters in the film. Along with brother in real life Shawn Wayans (Ash Tray) who plays a very convincing best friend.The film is a piss-take of a lot of other films including Menace II Society. If you have seen this film (M II S) then you will appreciate the film a whole lot more.Overall this is an excellent film that deserves a lot of credit."
78210,2,A quick way to get on track,"This book gives easy to understand information about how to keep accurate accounting records. The best part is that sample forms are shown in the book that you can recreate and use. No previous accounting knowledge is necessary, and not a lot of time is needed to understand the system outlined in the book. Scripture references are given at the beginning of each chapter so that you get the biblical principles behind the procedures that Mr, Henry recommends."
78213,2,Didn't want it to end,"I haven't loved a book this much since I read THE SHELL SEEKERS. And to think I'd never read a Marcia Willett book before! I love when I find a new author, and when the author is as talented as Ms. Willett, it's doubly gratifying. Nest and Mina are such wonderful characters. From their first introduction, I felt I knew them. Since other reviewers have synopsized the story, I won't repeat what they've said. Instead, I'll say that I found this book to be charming, warm, and rich with the minute detail that brings settings and people alive and makes you feel as if they're real and you're there with them. Throughout I cared deeply about what happened to this family and I was so sorry to have to let them go. As a writer myself, I am in awe of Ms. Willett's talent. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED."
78214,2,Awesome book!,For all those who want to get into the field of Topology and then do Differential Geometry and then do General Relativity. Take this book as your first step to your final destination!
78217,2,Very nice stands,"I held off ordering these because I have a 4 year old and was worried about him knocking them over on our hardwood floors but these have a very nice build quality. Heavy weighted base with rubber or spiked feet for carpet. I put the spiked feet inside when I assembled the stands so in case we ever move and I need to use them I'll know where they are. My only complaint is there isn't some kind of keeper to hold the cord in the notch on the bottom so when you move them to vacum or clean the cord comes out of the notch and the stand wont sit level until you move the cord back into the notch. Been meaning to place a bit of gaffers tape on it. Very very pleased with these. I had these speakers all bunched up on a wide entertainment center/tv stand and the voices were hard to make out and really hurt the surround sound, now that I have all these speakers separated voices are clear, distinct and the surround sound is amazing."
78231,2,"Beautiful, Funny...you won't be disappointed","I found this movie on one of the movie channels and recorded it on a whim because I loved My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Since then I've kept it on my dvr and watch it over and over. I'm now giving in to buying the blu-ray. My almost teenager daughter and her friends have seen it and love it too. Even my husband enjoys it when he's in the right mood (don't tell his poker club!). The scenery is fantastic. It makes me itchy to visit Greece - and I HATE to fly!. This is the right movie when you are just in the mood for an easy, funny (Richard Dreyfuss is fantastic! and how can you not love a handsome guy named Poopy Kakas?), great movie. It's NOT over an over the top mushy rom-com. And Now....We Dance!!!"
78318,2,Best movie ever made,"I envy those of you who will experience the magic and power of Shawshank for the first time.Simply put, this is the greatest movie of all time."
78362,2,"""Waltzing at the Piggly Wiggly""",This is a great family book set in small town America. Old fashion values are the highlight of this book.
78381,2,Jay's Boots,My husband loves the boots he said that they are very comfortable and airy. He wears them for 12 hours a day and has not complained of any problems with his feet. Great boots for a very low price.
78401,2,Fun and Funny all over again...magical and silly,Read this to my daughter many years ago ~ one of her favorites. Now reading to grandkids and it's just as fun and funny all over again. A real favorite no matter what your age.
78452,2,Excellent,"I teach the history of the Star Spangled Banner and I use this DVD. Some words are about the heads of my 5th graders, but basically they get the gist of everything. I don't think I'd use it in a lower grade, but it certainly would be interesting through adulthood."
78498,2,Like a hike with good friends ...,"A Blistered Kind of Love is a terrific account of one couple as they trek the Pacific Crest Trail. The narrative alternates between authors Angela and Duffy Ballard, and that sets the book apart from other hiking memoirs. Seeing the hike from both perspectives invites the reader to share the experience with greater depth than most single-perspective narratives. It's almost as if we get to alternate sharing the trail with each author, hearing ones view of the trail tale before we hang back and join the other, listening to the same story with that author's particular way of looking at the adventure. Very quickly, the reader gets the sense of being on a hike with good friends. It helps that both writers do a terrific job of letting us see through their eyes. This book is strongly recommended for hikers, adventurers, and people interested in the way relationships develop in extreme situations."
78504,2,shocking but brutetly true,"this film is by no means lame.90% of the stuff shown in this movie is true.i seen this on the shelf and thought another jail movie.but it was no ordinary jail movie,with brillant acting by all, this jail movie would be one of the best ive seen.with master p and a short apperence by sticky fingers at the start just gave it even more edge.avary had a great swimming future ahead of him untill the revenge of a sour drug dealer(sticky fingers)finds avary and two close buddys behind bars for a murder they did not comit.now its down to survival of the fittest.with a savage rape happening to one of the three in the first ten minutes of being lockdown.this told me i was in for a good movie.but it turned out to be great.a must see."
78532,2,Love this album,"I never get tired of listening to this CD. I'm so proud of what my son (Christopher Roberson/C.T.S.) accomplished in his young, short life. When I read the reviews of this album, I'm even more proud. I know you're proud of your accomplishments too. I listen to ""Paystyle"" as often as I can, it's the best. Love always, Mom of C.T.S."
78546,2,Oval tablecloth,Excellent purchase. Oval tablecloths of this size are rare; color choice was great and spills just create drops easy to wipe up. I'm delighted!
78620,2,Bryan's greatest album,"""Reckless"" is when Bryan was at his peek.There still playing songs everyday on the radio from this album. From the beutifull ballad,""Heaven."" To my favorite hard rocking song of all time,""The summer of 69,"" This record will be remembered forever.I love Bryan's voice,especially on the Tina Turner duet,""It's only Love.""They should do a whole album together.""Run to You"" is a classic.Bryan Adams is still turning out great records,but ""Reckless"" is his best."
78660,2,The Who at their Best.,"Unavailable in Oz, so had to import one of the Greatest Who albums ever.Just an amazing example of Rock and an added bonus with a variation to ""Who Are You?"" I'd never heard before and Keith Moon still playing. What a legend!"
78682,2,Just emailed Shout,"The pairing of Rick and AJ was certainly TV's true dynamic duo. So much energy from that pair. We like to call Andrew 'JA' as our favorite semi-recurring character 'Dr. Suvi Raj' aka Captain Midnight did, Rick's friend in the ER. He never got it right and it will be funny to again watch the very persnickety (borrowed from Natalie describing Monk, but it fits:) AJ just acquiesce and not offer any resistance to the butchering of his nickname numerous times. Emailed Shout to let them know of more big fans of Simon & Simon and that I was glad they have taken over the job of making sure the show is seen again. Hopefully all 8 seasons and the reunion movie of course."
78816,2,Flashback to the 80s,A must watch for any DD fan. The only thing that would make it better would be if it were offered in BluRay or HD. Very dated in low def.
78819,2,Best Cancer book...,"For anyone facing the big C or anyone with a relative in the same bandwagon, this is the best, most uplifting and practical book to get. It will give you advice, nutrition guidelines that help and most importantly, how to battle the depression that may arise. Get it!"
78836,2,Perfect,"Delivery was a little troublesome. UPS deliver it during the day when nobody was at home so I had to pick it up at their wharehouse the next day. Why they did not phone before to make sure somebody was at home or why they did not deliver it after 5PM?Apart for that glitch, everything was according to expectations."
78846,2,"""Unspoken"": by Lisa Jackson","Thia book is right up there with all the other books that I have read of Lisa Jackson. She is a great writer and I hope she is keep writing for a long time to come!""UNSPOKEN"": By Lisa Jackson"
78875,2,Happy with purchase,I am happy with the purchase. It certainly does the advertised purchase. I will certainly recommend to my friends to purchase it.
78916,2,Perfect for making dinner for the family,"This ginger paste gives my food great taste. I think it tastes better than ginger root purchased at the store. It's easy to use, I don't have to peel or grate. It also keeps well either stored in the pantry before use or in the fridge afterward. Great product. It saves me time when cooking for my family, saves money and gives my recipies/food that perfect ginger taste."
78918,2,Straws,Needed some fat straws for a Margarita party and these were perfect.They arrived super fast and exactly as described.One end has a little pointy part.
78938,2,A little silly of course.,"This film isn't as bad as some of the pro reviewers have written. Obviously this isn't the kind of film that must be taken seriously. If you approach it as an innocent diversion, it can prove to be - well, an innocent diversion."
78984,2,A very compelling and exciting book!,"This book is superb reading and definitely gives a true account of Jamaican family geneaology, growing up in Jamaica during the 70s and experiencing the political stifes of the 80s.A must read and I'm looking forward to any other books from Ms Thompson."
79028,2,Great Memories,"Just received this reprint... brought back awesome memories and this reprint has better packaging than the original. They packaged this to last a long time.For anyone that lost track of their old albums and this one in particular... buy it, kick back and enjoy!!!"
79055,2,I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!!!!!!,THIS MUSIC IS TOTALLY SOME THIN TO CHILL TO. EVERYONE COULD LOVE THIS AND WE COULD MAKE ICP THE GREATEST MOST POPULAR ARTIST EVER
79085,2,A Tremendous Read!,"I was surprised by this book. My expectations were for a typical roman a clef but this book was much more, in terms of both sophistication and craftsmanship.The best parts were the humor and the irony. I found myself laughing out loud!"
79110,2,Currently my favorite kitchen appliance,"This is my first electric skillet and I absolutely love it. It is big, but that's fine with us--I can make a whole batch of pancakes at one time and freeze any leftovers--so convenient! The cover is great for keeping food warm and keeping in splatters. I love being able to do a stir fry at counter vs stove-top level, and I can't wait to use it for a group. As others have stated, it's attractive enough to be on a buffet table. All in all this is a very useful piece of kitchen equipment."
79182,2,Good program,"Very good exercise program. The music is a little strange, but you can just turn it down and play a CD if it bugs you."
79229,2,Great Story,"This has been the first novel that I have read for many years and what a delight it was to read. Although this book was first published in 1949 it still offers anyone interested in the Napoleonic Wars an engrossing story of men at war.The author provides the reader with a great story of seven French Voltiguers (elite skirmishers and/or marksmen) fighting during the campaigns of the Empire under Napoleon from the battle of Aspern to the final showdown at Waterloo.We trudge through cannonades and cavalry charges, hot dusty treks into Spain and Portugal and into the Winter of Russia before the final campaigns and battles of 1813, 1814 and 1815. Although the battle scenes are not in-depth accounts the author provides enough for the reader to get a feel for the heat of battleI found myself rushing through the book to find out what happened to my brave Voltiguers and actually felt a touch of sadness at the end of the story for the fate of these brave men."
79236,2,Interesting read.,"An interesting read. However there's not really a lot of sales techniques one can learn from the book. I found the Joe Girard Law of 250 quite useful -- the idea of how one person could affect your sales opportunities in future, since he/she would likely know or be related to another 250 people."
79298,2,Rougher Version,"This is the original release of this show. The mix is a bit weird, and the vocals are out front with the guitars mixed low. The later release was remixed and doesn't have this issue. This version has one song not on the ""King Biscuit"" version (Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell); that version has two songs not on this version (Winners and Losers/Scene of the Crime & Cold Metal). So, if you want the complete show, you still need both versions.As for the performance, it is top-notch. Iggy is very vocal between songs, more so than on any other recording I've heard from this tour. Even songs that were medicore on the album (Squarehead, Easy Rider, High on You) shine in their live incarnations."
79350,2,One word: AWESOME!,"OMG! This CD is insane! Metal, mixed with acoustic, oh it's just amazing! My fav song on the CD is Circle, which shows off Coreys voice a lot! This CD is by far their best work. A little less heavy, but its lyrics make up for it! Get this CD ASAP! You won't regret it!"
79352,2,Slipknot?,"Is this the same band who released IOWA? Finally, they proved to the world that they can play and write songs. Literally, everyone I know loves this cd. One of the best current live acts on the planet, but are insane to charge $55-$65 for concert tickets."
79499,2,A GREAT LOVE STORY,"'The English Patient' is definitely on par with 'Doctor Zhivago'. At the center of each story is the universal human theme of looking for love, it can't get more realistic than that. We all long and dream and search for that magical moments, when we believe that we have finally been found by our true loves. What makes this movie great is the fact that it was able to convey this emotions. At the end of the movie, all the characters were alone again, the Nurse, the Thief,the Bomb Defuser, but their lives have been enhanced by their respective encounters. I think most of us can recognize some resemblance of that endings with real life."
79645,2,I really enjoyed this CD,"This CD brought me back....I really enjoyed the movie, and I remember as I watched the movie, that I would love to have all these songs in one place. My favorite tracks are #1, ""Visions of Sunset"" by Shawn Stockman aof Boyz II Men fame, and #12, ""An American Symphony"", Mr. Holland's Opus!!"
79687,2,"Good printer, a little complicated to set up print jobs","Most of the complaints here seem related to not understanding the plethora of settings available for this printer. Maybe there are too many options for some users, but on the other hand, you can do a lot of fine tuning before printing--in terms of color values, size, and so forth. For example, I was transferring files composed to the default printer on another computer and was losing type on page edges when printed on the 9800. When I discovered the option to ""emulate Laserjet margins,"" the problem was solved. It is not perfect, but so far I have printed on a variety of media (in all sizes and weights), and my only major complaint is the amount of ink it consumes. But that's a problem with all inkjets. I own five printers, and three of them are HP, one is a Canon photo printer, and one is the Epson Stylus I bought to print CDs. The HPs produce the best results, especially if one reads the manuals."
79691,2,Utopia science fiction made special by Sturgeon,"The Cosmic Rape (""To Marry Medusa"" is the short story from which it was expanded) tells the story of a wandering space conquerer who is shocked to discover that humans, unlike any other race it had ever known, did not have a group mind. Convinced that this is how it's meant to be, Medusa enlists the help of a born loser to put all the brainwaves back together again.The Cosmic Rape is one of these utopia vision sci-fi novels that seemed to populate the late 50s/early 60s. Sturgeon is a fine writer, and his recognizable style makes it immediately much more than the sum of its parts. The characters are grubbily and wonderfully real, even if the plot can't always say the same for itself.Recommended for fans of science fiction writing of the period, and for fans of Sturgeon."
79703,2,Charleston Vanilla Chews...excellent!,i was so happy with my purchase! i bought this for my fiancee's birthday he was so pleased and so was i!
79795,2,Fun and worth every penny,"What's good about this video is that it is organized into many chapters, each of which is stand-alone tutorial on a particular type of song and technique. If you've already got the basics that's great because you can pick what you want and get a complete lesson. Even if you haven't seen his first this has a lot of value. This is a video you can come back to over and over as your interests change or you want to try different styles in your own preference order. Includes a nifty printed chord chart and guide to the songs, which makes for a complete package. Also his personality really comes thru in a very enjoyable way. I got this along with beloff's second (which i don't recommend), and this is way better for the money. Fun and worth every penny!"
79809,2,This book will change your life.,"I am delighted to recommend this book and any of the Popchecks' books and cd's.I have read most of them. This work is for anyone, especially Catholics, who is trying to figure out their relationships and how they can grow in intimacy and virtue. Dr. Popchek really hits the nail on the head. If you wonder if are living in Christian charity vs being manipulated or being a door mat, I would recommend this book to you. Thank God for the Pastoral Solutions ministry and the Theology of the Body."
79820,2,Does anyone want to discuss the ending?,"As with all of Marsden's book, this was intriguing andbrilliant. I am 22, however I still enjoy all his books that aremeant for teenagers, especially the ""Tomorrow"" series. The reason I am posting this review is because I would love to correspond with someone and discuss the ending to ""Letters from the Inside"". Anyone who has read it will know how frustrating the ending is and at the moment I can only speculate with myself as to what exactly happened. Please write! Thanks! END"
79890,2,comfy and cute,"True to size. Color a little on the grayish black side. This sandal is a little stiff at first, but once u brake it in it's super comfortable! I love that it's got a little bit of a heel without looking trashy. Perfect casual, comfortable sandal that'll last for a long time."
79974,2,Learn Idiomatic Gaelic,"The language you learn is Scottish Gaelic.There are four series published in five separate books with at least two tapes for each series . Each chapter is arranged thematically so the learner can make simple conversation from an early stage. The language is modern and idioms are taught immediately, unlike a lot of grammar-oriented books. However, here are some grammatical structures and exercises given. The course would be strengthened with more exercises and activities to reinforce the concepts taught ."
79997,2,Camille is the Best,"I love this product. I have problems with my heels cracking. This is the only product that I have found that helps. As long as I apply it daily to my heels, no cracks. Nice smooth and soft. This size for this price is a fantastic bargain"
80045,2,Alive II [ORIGINAL RECORDING REMASTERED] [LIVE],"This is the second live album that KISS ever made. Even thou it's not as good as the first one, it has a really cool wibe to it. In 1977 KISS was the biggest thing that ever hit the world in terms of rock n' roll. The KISS machinery had concoured every corner of the world from the US to Europe and all the way to Japan where they broke The Beatles record of 3 sold out nights at a famous venue called Bodokan Hall. KISS sold out 7 nights in advance. Enjoy this remastered recordig with songs like; ""Detroit Rock City"", ""King Of The Night Time World"" and ""God Of Thunder"". It also features som new studio tracks with songs like Ace's ""Rocket Ride"" and a totally awesome track in my opinion called ""All American Man""."
80094,2,Great Book Club Selection,"The story was interesting with memorable characters and situations. My book club had fun discussing the book and answering the questions provided in the back. We also found the interview with the author engaging. This helped to give great insight into the story, the setting and the timeframe."
80106,2,Where the heart is...........Opra club,I loved the book as it was like a real life story and it read very fast. It didn't have a zilling plots.I enjoyed and will passon to someone.
80110,2,Great book!,This was a grest heart warming book that never got boring. I would recomend it to anyone.
80189,2,"simple story, boy meets girl...","Boy meets the girl of his dreams at a party, stupidly misses a date(heh, you'll see...) the day after, and spends most of the rest of the book pursuing her. Along the way, he encounters more crazy stuff than you can shake a stick at. Damn funny in the English translation, I can't imagine how it must be in the original (Dutch?). A delightful used bookstore surprise, this really needs a re-release."
80231,2,great pressure easy to use,Bought this to replace a manual one.took pressure with this and old one was approx the same.the upside is the ease to use. the cuff seem to fit just about every size and is easy to place and use.
80325,2,End of Titan era,This really is the last album of a Titan era. Which starts in the classic Cabea Dinossauro and ends here. Tits made classic albuns based in rock n 'roll and had a grunge metal trip which ends in the good Domingo.
80372,2,Worth it for the price.,"Digital tuners can range up to $2k for the nice ones. This tuner is kind of like a mediocre movie - if you go into it thinking it sucks, it'll end up being an ok flik. If it gets talked up too much and it ends up being mediocre, then it sucks.This is a mediocre tuner, don't expect high end digital accuracy, and you won't be disappointed in your purchase. I wouldn't build a career tuning pianos around this one, but for the amateur pianist needing to check a note here and there, it's perfect."
80503,2,A detailed history of mobile homes and the mobile lifestyle,"Since another reviewer said that this book wasn't what he expected. I thought I'd describe what I think this book is.It describes the history of mobile homes and the mobile lifestyle (most commonly typified today with RVs).I do think this book may have been incorrectly categorized. I would categorize it under history, not health. The copy I read was a library book and it was filed under economics, which I also consider to be a more accurate category than health.This book describes the lack of acceptance of manufactured housing in its various forms in the US. It also shows the history behind our collective biases and impressions regarding manufactured housing and mobile living.I would recommend this book to people who live in a mobile home or are a full-time RVer. People who don't have a particular interest in this mode of housing will probably find little of interest here."
80519,2,Interesting,"It is interesting to note that The Flower of Life (Vol 1) has stimulated a huge disparity in terms of readers' judgements of its validity and usefulness. I agree with the nay-sayers who state that most (if not all) of the information contained in this book cannot be verified by standard reference methodologies. To be fair to Drunvalo, he does recommend discarding any information presented that does not feel comfortable intuitively. Some readers apparently feel that this applies to most of the material presented. He does not profess to be a 'scientist' and in fact stated his rejection of that form of informational hierarchy. His writing style is thus easy to read, as if you are talking with a friend. There is a huge amount of information presented in this book, and it remains to be seen if it really 'true' or not! Still worth a read in my opinion. I have not read Volume II but will take a look at it when it becomes available."
80589,2,Great Product,"For a true beginner in rewiring lamps, this kit was fantastic! I was able to rewire two lamps in no time at all. . . great product (and reasonable price) for everyone."
80618,2,Doc Albis,Doctor Albis is the man with plan. His books are worthy of the Pulitzer Prize. His academic prowess is surpassed by none. This book is a light and whimsical read and a real insight into the mind that was sculpted by none other than Yale. Basically this book is like super cool and junk.
80657,2,Classic,I have had many copies of this recording over the years and it continues to be a great listen everytime. I like to listen to this on my harley and cruise. Good Jams. Never gets old.
80670,2,UNDESERVEDLY UNDERATED,"This wrongly overlooked album is a treasure trove of early 70's heavy prog rock. The second album with the amazing Neil Peart behind the pen and drum kit, Caress has the raw intensity and sincerity that the band launched their career on. Fast moving tracks like ""Bastille Day"" and ""I Think I'm Goin' Bald"" balance the two slower concept pieces, ""The Necromancer"" (thinly veiled Tolkien, gotta love it!) and ""The Fountain of Lamneth."" Both of the concept pieces are classic, and preview the band's move into the full-blown, hard rock must-have concept album 2112 (and later, ""Hemispheres""). If you're exploring the sonic world of Rush, don't forget Caress of Steel!"
80692,2,Rush At Their Greatest,"Bought This Album In 1977 after I saw Them In Concert So I Could Keep Enjoying The Concert Memories, It Is Great, Especially The Drum Solo By Neal Peart!!"
80699,2,One of her best!,This is one of the best Delinsky books I've read. I found myself so caught up in the lives of the characters that I was unable to put the book down until I had finished -- and then I didn't want to be finished!
80705,2,One of the albums that I can listen over and over!,"This is the first album I bought from Secret Garden and I really love it! It's flowing and I can listen to the songs for many, many times. I put them on my car and all my picky friends (who like Pop/Rock) even enjoyed the music. Out of three Secret Garden albums, I like this one most."
80718,2,"I like this, but I liked Live From Albertain better...","I really like this CD. My favorite is Yearbook. All the songs of some meaning that you can relate to and I think that's why I like there music. Note to Hanson haters: Give these guys a break, maybe you don't like their music, but who really cares?"
80735,2,MUSIC TO FLY BUY,"One of Rush's best albums, every track is great, especially with the awesome SHM. Must have for any CD collection, but don't pay these ridiculous over-inflated rip off prices. I purchased mine from The Music Specialist on E Bay, save yourself a ton of cash!"
80763,2,Colourful Cuba,"This is a great coffee table book of good quality. The colour photographs are excellent, accompanied by descriptive text. I bought it out of a sense of curiosity of how the more affluent Cubans might live. Unfortunately, as it turns out, I don't generally share their taste in design or dark furniture, but don't let that put you off an excellent and informative book."
80764,2,She is always a breath of fresh air,I have always enjoyed her work and have passed on copies to others. I am so happ to have it on Kindle
80810,2,"Hold Your Fire, Critics: Another Winner For Rush","After struggling to achieve a balance with newer synth and older rock in their earlier eighties albums (""Grace Under Pressure"", ""Power Windows"", ""Signals"" being examples), the guys finally found a new groove with 1987's ""Hold Your Fire"". By toning down the top-heavy synth that burried their previous three albums, Rush was able to showcase their talent again, but allow a hint of new, 80's influence. Though admittedly risky to fans who enjoyed their older works, the album showed that the aging band (13 and going strong) was still experimenting and changing. For relivant lyrical content(a good example being ""Second Nature"", a more mature cousin to ""Closer to the Heart"") and for the achieving balance of synth, I rate the album as a 5."
80822,2,The manga was better,"This book was a good one, not so good but OK. The manga I have to say is better than this."
80838,2,Essential Reading,"Needless to say, any book that gathers well-thought, professional essays on Carson McCullers' writing/thought is essential reading for any literary scholar. While not inexpense, it contains journal articles that the reader would not be able to obtain otherwise, or if so, at much greater cost."
80839,2,Outstanding photo paper,Outstanding paper for photo printing. Excellent color reproduction. Luster surface is much better for both color and B&W than the smooth gloss papers.
80974,2,Worth the price of admission,"I've had my eye on this collection for some time but put off purchasing it becuase I wasn't sure how these ""classics"" would look on our 56"" HD DLP television. My worries turned out to be unfounded as the picture and sound quality of these dvds is great. The collection of special features is unique and the documentary Alias Nick and Nora is a nice addition to the set of movies. I'm glad I finally purchased the collection."
81028,2,I love this book,This book is great!! It has step by step instructions along with an illustration for each step. It goes over all basic wire work and also has some very inspirational finished wire work pictures. It gives you great tips that you would not know otherwise. I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning the basic how to of wire work!! I can't say enough great things about this book. Did I mention I loved this book.
81040,2,Move over Steve let this girl sing her troubles!,"Actually, I was amazed how folk she is instead of country which is what I love about Nancy Griffith. This CD really has a lot of Heart in it and Stacey can really capture the moment with her voice and words. The accoustic flavor was beautiful too. It's a CD worth taking on those long summer drives and it can stick around for the fall and winter too to keep you company."
81054,2,Can't go wrong with this.,"It is a true fact that this album has sold nearly 19 MILLION COPIES- the top seller for any female artist of any kind; that in mind, you're probably going to either like this album, or you're going to love it. Nearly every dang track has been a hit one time or another on your radio. This CD is my soulmate."
81061,2,Awesome,Shania really hit me hard when she sang From This Moment. That song has a lot in common when she lost both her parnts and I lost one of mine. GoD BLESS HER FOR THIS SONG!
81065,2,Dead Water,"We enjoy all of Victoria Houston's books. I read a few chapters to my husband most every evening. They are easy to follow, fun to guess what's going to happen next."
81144,2,Sammy Kershaw - Labor Of Love,"Here's an underrated singer whose vocal talent shows he deserves more success than he has achieved.But furthermore he's also become his own man now on this album and vocal comparisons with George Jones are long gone.Keith Stegall's production here allows Sammy to breathe and gives full presence to his voice rather than hiding it with banging drums and guitars. Even on the rockiest of songs here like the title track or Roamin' Love, the singer sings the hell out of the songs.The last song on this set, Love Of My Life, is a beautifully-written ballad whose lyrics are simple, it must be said, but had the song been more involved lyrically, it would have diminished its impact and meaning.Sammy also reflects on life in One Day Left To Live, gets cajun with Little Did I Know and all the others songs work perfectly for him. This is just his best record to date."
81215,2,Christmas Spirit Rings Through!,"""Snowed In"" is THE BEST Christmas album in the world! The songs get anyone into the Christmas spirit! I would really love to hear Hanson sing the songs now that all their voices have matured! This album is amazing!"
81217,2,"Inspires the Rainmakers, Nebraska Guitar Militia, etc.","Mellencamp paved the way for heartland rock, opening the path for bands like the Rainmakers, the Nebraska Guitar Militia, the Starkweathers, etc. Some of it sounds a little hokey today, but most of it holds up awfully well."
81251,2,An eyeopening experience,After seeing Roni Size live at Glastonbury 98 i was truely converted to Drum and base this album represents all thats good about modern music with its seemless mix of technology and live instruments Roni Size has created a whole new concept in music which easily converts into the sort of live show that most electronic bands only dream at
81270,2,Gotta Love The Canton Spirituals,"It's just a cd, but the group is the part that makes it the best. This is my favorite gospel singers."
81305,2,Pretty Good Placemat,"This placemat was given to us for my 1 year old. It had little educational value for him since he was so young, but it was really great to protect our table, and it is very easy to clean. It worked great for about 4 months, then it got punctured by our toddler's fork one too many times which let water in, and we had to throw it away."
81329,2,Nice 32 inch TV for the price!,"Toshiba makes quality TVs, still own 20-inch that is about eight years old, never experienced a problem. Nice picture, even facing sun. I considered buying flat screen for this reason but I am glad I made a decision to wait a while on paying for a more expensive set. I do have to adjust the antenna when changing channels, but it's worth it to receive the quality picture (hopeful that once the satellite is hooked up, this won't be a problem), currently just a little grainy. Happy though."
81374,2,Wonderful,"Awesome book that explains in detail with lots of photos from start to finish. Excellent reference for beginner and others who need to learn some tips from a pro. Speedy delivery...used copy had coffee cup stain on front, eewwww!"
81381,2,Spyro Gyra Live complete,"This is my favorite Spyro Gyra set and is the only place (other than the record release) where you can get the opening number ""Old San Juan"" which was deleted from the CD release. The above track listing should be 1.Old San Juan with numbers listed 1-10 as tracks 2-11. (Latin Nights is not on the cassette nor the album twice)."
81404,2,"Works great, but looks like a muzzle.","Works great if your dog is a puller. This will solve your problem. However, everyone on the street thinks it's a muzzle. I have an American Bulldog and people are already scared of her. When I walk her with the gentle leader, they cross the street because they think she is dangerous. Not the case at all obviously, but sucks that people think that"
81478,2,The Best Despite Others' Criticism,"This book was one of the BEST I have read in a long time. It takes a fantasy sci-fi book to a new level. It was supenseful, intriguing, and a renewal of faith. A great way to say ""what if God had made a place other than Earth..."" Overall: This deserves six stars."
81489,2,The video is very sweet and it explains how jesse is ready,It shows how jesse is ready to commit to his wome
81492,2,If you can't be in Austin hearing him live,"Get the CD. Delbert McClinton's a strong blue eyed soul singer. This live CD's got some serious rocked out blues. The backup band's great, instrumentation is solid. Plus, the engineering's very good, you get just enough 'live' feel without an overflow of the annoying sussurrus from the audience.Favorites:""Shaky Ground"" okay, I love every version of this song, this one's no exception""B Movie Boxcar Blues"" I heard this song first on this CD and just could not get it off repeat. Great tale of a traveling man's escapades.""Going back to Louisiana"" another great blues standard.Rebecca Kyle, August 2008"
81531,2,Interesting. Ok but not as good as other WEB books.,"An interesting view of history in novel form. The story is not as spell binding as other WEB G books but still had the ability to hold my interest from cover to cover.Enough historical ""facts"" to keep the interest up in what would otherwise be a delay in finding out what has befallin the Marines in the South Pacific. I still recommend this book. However if it the first WEB G book you are going to read start with the first of the Brotherhood books or the first of the Corps books to fall compleatly under the WEB G spell."
81567,2,The Gargoyle on the Roof,"Jack Prelutsky strikes again. It is a wonderful book of rhyme with gargoyles, werewolves, gremlins, and vanpires populating the universe. The illustrations by Peter Sis' are subtle and whimisical, done in color and black and white. Excellent folklore book and recommended to all ages, from K through the 12th grade level, including parents and teachers. Anyone who enjoys folklore will enjoy this book."
81674,2,I am smarter than I thought I was!,"For those of you with 1500 on your SAT's and a 4.0 in school...good for you! But apparently, I, the average student, am just as intelligent. And if I can read this book, I must be REAL smart because it was not easy reading!I used this book to make a case for a 3.1 student with 1000 on her GRE's to get into graduate school. E.I. is one of the best books out there and every parent should read it."
81702,2,great,"although this album is very far out there it is awesome. at first it can be hard to listen to and unlike the others of these five box sets, it is very open and unformatted. i did not like it the first time i heard it but each time i listen to it, it gets better and better. i found this album similar to bitches brew . not because much of bitches brew is played but because i also did not like bitches brew the first time i heard it. now it is one of my favs. miles sure knew what the hell he was doing."
81716,2,Beautiful Picture,"There aren't words to describe how lovingly this film was transferred to high definition. The visual palette is stunning. Every detail is visible, though not to the detriment of the overall film. Looked like it was filmed in high definition to begin with. Magnificent."
81734,2,Wow,"This album by shoegazers Slowdive is, in my opinion, an overlooked masterpiece. With some help from Brian Eno, Slowdive created a lush yet stark collection of subtle pop hooks and synth experimentation. It is unfortunate that MBV's Loveless seems to outshine everything else from the 1990s shoegazing scene when it comes to praise and recognition. Albums such as Souvlaki often get left behind.I enjoy the dreamy aura surrounding this album. Songs like ""Allison"" can get stuck in your head for days. There is much creative playing on the synths throughout. Bass work is excellent. Overall, I guess one can classify this great album as a dream pop album...one of the very best.The added bonus EP is great as well. The beat-heavy ambient electronic tracks are a pleasure to listen to. The band's cover of ""Some Velvet Morning"" is top-notch."
81818,2,Good movie,"This was recommended by a lot of friends. They all seem to like it a lot more than I do. It's a good movie, but I don't think I'd ever call it a great one."
81888,2,Hilarious back there and then.,"I remember this film from the cinema. A tremendous sense of joy, crazy laughter and carefreeness(is there such a word?). It was the sum of a number of large and small parts. Barbara Streisand, of course, in sexy/funny days. Madeline Kahn; hanging on to the doorman's leg, being dragged through the banquet. Lot's of almost cameos, guy with golf clubs, revolutionary, Hotel Burglar, Crooked Manager etc.. Ryan O'Neal was there as well.I sat with my sons(of 13 & 15) and they did enjoy it. Luckily I hadn't hyped it up beforehand.Remember those screwball movies ? Maybe it only works after we forget.Sometimes, you just have to remember the first feelings of the time. I'll still keep it securely amongst my possessions. Maybe my son's children will discover it and those first feelings will be passed on.A DVD and a feeling worth having. Don't expect it all to return in a instant though, if you have memories of the time."
81960,2,A Fun Read,"This is book was mentioned by a Pulitzer prize winning author, now a professor, Barry Sigel at an Olli class at University of California, Irvine. It was written before the term ""literary journalism"" was classified as such.Today's standards are different for literary journalism but his view is Old Mr Flood stands apart and is well done. The character is not one person, but a composite and the feel and smells of the fish market are almost palpable. This author knows fish!!A bit of tension ~ the force of growing older, not wanting to miss of day of life."
81977,2,Excellent product!!!!,"great deal, wi-fi, video, clear audio and with new upgrades it becomes even more perfect."
82003,2,"The Bible is excellent, the editing is not","Nothing against the NKJV text, the Answers to Life's Questions, the Life Principles or the Life Lessons commentaries/teachings. They are excellent! I particularly like how Dr. Stanley takes pains to point out God's promises. I believe this Bible would be an excellent resource for a new Christian. However, I ordered the 6th edition and wish I'd waited for the next one coming out in 2010 because enclosed with my Bible came an errata page listing over a dozen editorial errors - not in the biblical text itself, but in the commentaries/teachings. Some are ""minor"" errors, as in misspellings and failing to capitalize the word ""his"" in reference to Our Lord; but a few are major errors, such as misquoting Scripture. Correcting these errors can only make this delightful Bible an even better, more cherished resource."
82004,2,"Take a little longer than some, but worth it...","This is a great, mostly mid-tempo, hard-bop session. Very tuneful, very subtle. I admit I was not knocked out by this album on the first, or even fifth, listening. But the more I hear it, the more tuneful it gets. I find myself humming along with the remarkably consistent, grooving solos throughout the album. Not a world-changing album, but a very enjoyable, very solid jazz session none the less. Highly recommended for fans of any of the members of the lineup, or just for music fans in general."
82008,2,LIL MAMA ROX THE SUMMER 07!,This is THE hip hop summer anthem. Get with it my peeps! Lil Mama has it ALL! She knocks the other poser-girlz out the box! GO LIL MAMA!!!!
82042,2,GREAT SERVICE,WE GOT THE ME MOVIE IN VERY GOOD TIME AND AT A VERY GOOD PRICE. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME WE USE AMAZON AND THE MADE IT VERY EASY FOR US.
82059,2,Dragon,Pretty good. I enjoyed it a lot. It has brought a lot of good high school memories. Jason Scott Lee is awesome in his Bruce Lee characterization.
82088,2,This Rocks,This double DVD is great. It has a bunch of extras and many commentaries. This is a must own for all Rocky Fans!
82103,2,An exquisite masterpiece on love and music,"Few books have made the lasting impact of this one; we have given this to at least twenty friends and each has loved it thoroughly and differently. As with a great work of music, it is difficult to describe or encompass its content or meaning in mere words. Reading this novel with an open mind can subtly and beautifully alter your perspective on music and lifelong love. As one friend put it, the landscape of the novel and its characters evoke a passion and sensibility that can live with you for a long time afterward."
82104,2,Insurance Law - a Nutshell MUST for Insurance Law Students,A thorough and concise summary of the critical concepts of Insurance Law. An excellent supplement to Insurance Law texts and very handy as a quick reference tool.
82180,2,excellent family entertainment,my kids really enjoy this movie and think parts of it are hilarious. they like to sing along. my husband and i were surprised at how much they liked it.( i purchased it in a moment of fond nostalgia)
82195,2,Great Old Movie...Simple and Funny!,Just a simnple movie with no big stunts...Nice to just relax and laugh! Worth every penny! If you like a simple life and somthing that will make the whole family laugh...BUY IT!
82230,2,stupid dumb tight,"this was a great dvd. mac dre is off da chains and he got much love for the fans. im from the yay area so it was typical like the other bay are dvd's( sideshows and beezies) but it also had a lot of extras. it had about 7 stage performances from California livin to THe Thizzle dace. it had his 3 cars introduced. it has footAge from all over northern cali and it even has monterey and fresno. introduces the rappers whos albums he put out, liuke rydAh J. Klyde and dubee.it has yukmouth mac mall, sumthin terrible and more it will be much more than u expected. it also has fights at parties."
82280,2,not good buy but great perfume,"perfume seems cheap but cheaper in ebay sorry amazon its true,but great product amazon is the best though in tracking number shipping quality gotta be honest with the readers,this perfume is my fav its very sweet and girly im a candy lover and that why i luv it!"
82350,2,On a wing and a prayer,"No, Phoebe Cates, cute as she is, is not the angel. This time Emmanuelle Beart is the angel.The story is one of those strait forward situation comedies. As in ""Heaven Can Wait"" or more like ""Meet Joe black"", an angle on a mission is detoured when a satellite nicks her wing. She lands in a pool of a soon to be married musician (Jim). You know musicians; he is obligated to help the angle, yet he can not tell his fiancée (Patty), who of course suspects there is another woman. Naturally his friends find out and plan to get rich. And so on and so on.Eventually the angle that by this time is enamored with Jim and vice versa is well and leaves. Patty who has been insulted and assaulted by Jim and the angle leaves also. To top it off maybe there was no angle. Seems Jim has a brain tumor. So how did everyone get in this situation and what is to become of Jim?The Heavenly Kid"
82367,2,Gift,Bought this as gift for a brother years ago. I haven't heard any complaints. It was shipped and received on time and in good condition.
82412,2,Someone Was Watching,"This book was a little boring. The plot was a tad dull.There were a few times when you couldn't put the book down. I mostly liked the book. When you read a stupid part, you know it's gonna pick up.You keep reading in suspense. Anyone who likes suspense and a little mystery will love this book."
82492,2,A must have for your yoga collection,"By far Shiva Rea's best yoga dvd. The yoga matrix allows you to create your own sequences dependant on how you would like to work in each practice. Shiva Rea gives plenty of options to allow you to work to your own level and yet the challenges are still there for you to aim for.On the dvd is also technical instructionals, on the Bandhas and allignment, which are helpful and informative.There is also plenty on meditation and pranyama.Shiva Rea's freeform yoga demonstration is a delight to see.There are interviews with renowned yogis - p.s. I don't really understand what the yoga instructor who demonstrated the different moods with his face was doing but it was very interesting to watch."
82494,2,The Best There Is,"I am an exercise/yoga/video fanatic and based on the reviews gave this DVD a try. It was well worth it. Shiva is beautiful, eloquent, and precise in her methods. The Matrix system is amazing, and over time you are able to create your own workout to target certain areas of the body, to warm or cool the body, to work out or to destress. This is a great video for those of us who want to have a DVD that will grow with us, and challenge us, along the way to full fitness and full flexibility. Out of all the Yoga DVDs that I have, this is the one that I use everyday, and I am toning my stomach like never before and my thighs, which I cant say happened with some other yoga DVDS. Definetely a video for people semi-familiar with yoga-- may be too overwhelming for beginners."
82509,2,Very useful reference,Excellent reference for all linguists/students. Sort of difficult to study with however...Should be divided into categories if you intend to use it as a study manual.
82512,2,Dr. Spock's Baby and Child Care Book,Fantastic book! I buy this to include with my gift for each baby shower!!
82641,2,The title says it all,"Buy this CD and listen to these songs. Perfect for any mellow mood, their melodies hover in the air and create an atmosphere of peace and tranquility.Composed of the stuff of emotion and life, these classic songs will have you wanting to sing along to the familiar tunes, yet you won't dare disrupt the perfect golden tones as they wash over you."
82695,2,The Screams Go On,"OK. It may lack overall spookiness,and the city doesn't seem as maze-like as the mansion in the first one, but man, it still rocks. Graphics have been pumped up, and the background scenes are simply superb. The FMV is amazing too. The new weapons and characters are also great. Thankfully, they improved the voice acting, and the characters conversations are more beliveable. The zombies are still blood-chilling, and they look different. Some are cops, S.T.A.R.S. troops, and civilians(well, they were, anyway). The best part is the way you have to beat the game using one character, save it, then use that saved file for the other character to get the whole story. Nifty! Anyway, if you liked R.E., buy this. If the first 10 seconds of the intro film doesn't grab you, maybe you are a zombie yourself."
82710,2,Perfect Album By All Means,"After reading reviews on my own, describing this album, I finally bought it and was impressed with what it had to offer. A girl punk rock fan of fifteen, I found this to be a mixture of so many different sounds, yet defining punk culture well. TBS is one of the most awesome bands, and my friends also agreed. It's definitely worth the purchase. Ok, so, it just completely rocks! Uh, I'm supposed to be researching school information, so, uh, I have to go. :)"
82738,2,A great game!!!,"I love this game, the best thing about it is the battle grounds. I like the battlle grounds because they have breakaway glass, you could destroy buildings such as the Ifel tower, you could also destroy trees, busses, cars, and you can also hit people. I like the weponry and the vehicles you can choose from. If you like to go all out war I suggest this game"
82784,2,Oh soooo sensuous...A definately-delectable treat y'all!,"If I sound sprung, its because I am! I popped ""Urban Hang Suite: in my stereo about 2 and 1/2 years ago and the only time it has left that spot is when it's being listened to (by me) in my Discman. The first cut (The Urban Theme) doesn't give any indication just how deep a vibe Maxwell goes into. It isn't until your ears here the soft pleading og ""I guess it never was the way I thought it was..."" on the second cut (Welcome). If you ain't empathizin' with the brotha while implores his lover (lucky girl, extremely privledged) to come back to him and tells her (or you, depending on your state of mind while listening to this CD) no one compares, and that he'll go out of his way show her so (in every way...), then you're either cussing out your man for never ever telling something so sweet, or you're gettin' your groove on (whether it be on the dancefloor or other places...). If you don't have this in your collection...Get it! Now!!!"
82786,2,COOL !!!!,"This is an incredible cd it is very nice this is Maxwell's debut album and it is great and it is wonderful composed and arranged the editing and vocals are wonderful . Maxwell has a nice voice he sings very well I enjoy this album he has a lot of nice songs on this album and I truly enjoy it and I would recommend anyone who likes Maxwell to purchase this album. My favorite songs on this album are: When The Cops Come Knocking, Ascension, Sumethin Sumethin, and many others so therefore buy this album if you like neo-soul!!!!"
82823,2,Forest Gump CD,"We drove to Kentucky the first of the week, and played our CD the majority of the time.... we love Tom Hanks and the CD Forest Gump.....Thanks again,Vickie Williams"
82904,2,Beauty & quality together,"My style is antique all the way and this shelf fits in perfectly. I was very impressed with the weight and quality of the materials. The original glass had a flaw in it, but was promptly replaced and I am very happy with the shelf. I have now ordered 2 more pieces from the collection to complete the look in my powder room."
82924,2,Best Book on C Programming - Bar None!,"Better than Kernighan and Ritchie. Better than Harbison and Steele. Not for beginners to programming in general, but by far the best book for programmers looking to learn the C programming language. The emphasis on pointers is absolutely essential to serious C programming, and this is the only book I know of that is so oriented. You may study K&R or H&S, then go to look at some Linux kernel source and find yourself mystified. Not so with Reek's book. The former books teach pointers to be sure, but the level of detail and examples are insufficient for serious programming. The Reek book fills this void. An outstanding book and very readable as well. Buy it."
82967,2,Great History!,Russell Crowe is great playing John Nash...I show during Nobel Prize week in school to show diversity and how the prize was given to John Nash.
82971,2,So much more than the previews...,This was one of the best movies I had seen in a long time. Russell Crowe played a phenomenal part. The film was intense with great plot twists and turns. An emotional roller-coaster ride with a great ending. You won't be disappointed.
83015,2,"Great Book, and great for Bible Studies.","I first read this book about 25 years ago. It became more than just a book to read to me, it became a Bible Study. I found myself reading the book again at different times in my life when I needed to grow in the Lord. I have notes and Bible scriptures hand written all through the book. My husband, who was Pastor of a church at the time, had me use this book for a Bible Study of Wedneday nights to the congregation. Now I am using ""Hinds Feet On High Places"" to teach a Sunday School class of Teens. They really enjoy it, and look forward to it each Sunday."
83043,2,"still evolving, but still great","Rob Halford's project, Fight, are back with their second (and last) studio album after War Of Words. And while I find this album very different, I also think it is very good. The songs on here are catchy, with a good groove (the last one starts a little ballad-y, but they're all good). However , the tempo is slowed down significantly from the first album, which was much more of a thrash album than this. I give this 4 stars (heck, I could even go 4.5) as it is a very good metal album, but not just great. If you are a fan of heavy metal, specifically Rob Halford, you will probably enjoy this album."
83065,2,Beautiful Daydream,"At this point Mariah was like the energizer bunny. This cd marks the time when Mariah started encorporating hints of hiphop into her music. What a nice blend of pop, r&b;, hiphop, and pure soul. This cd also spawned the landmark single FANTASY featuring the late O.D.B. This song would be the blueprint for alot of future divas to follow. Mariah hit the mark first so let's keep that in mind. A more introspective mariah emerges on this cd with the song Looking In. And of course this cd contains the Super Hit ONE SWEET DAY featuring Boys To Men...This cd is an all around winner....."
83100,2,More than I needed,I bought this Javascript and HTML book about a year ago. I have used it many times to help me understand HTML problems I have had with code I am writing.I think the book is pretty good. The Javascript section has some neat example code. This also helped me.I'm just a beginner at this stuff.
83128,2,"Very Nice, but...","Okay slip, and I would buy another one if I needed it. Another time, though, I would buy the next size larger and still feel comfortable that it wouldn't ""slip"" off of me! Since the politicians and the media report that Americans are becoming heavier, Vanity Fair might pay attention and not skimp on their products. :)I used to think that ""Vanity Fair"" meant outstanding quality, but I think that during the last few years they have joined the ranks of the only average."
83184,2,STILL THE BEST BOOK ON PIERO,"This remains the best book on Piero della Francesca, one of the world's greatest artists. It has influenced many books but still has no equal--after almost 80 years! Great it is back in print."
83197,2,Fantastic read,"Well written, couldn't put this book down.The story takes some interesting twists and keeps you guessing until the end, I highly recommend this book!"
83208,2,Intended for readers who love books and literature,Fantastic plot which will keep you up to find out all of the mystery built into this book. The storytelling style reminds one of books by Umberto Eco or Victor Hugo.
83211,2,Perfect book,Book was brand new just as expected and in perfect condition. Sent very fast in the mail. Thanks!!!
83258,2,Good song selection.,Purchased for my wife for xmas and she said it has a very good selection of songs and the right amount.
83260,2,Worked very good,Works great. . . Had no problem with ick transferring fish to new tank. A must have for new tank of fish.
83281,2,Pink Boot,"These a fun, and stylish for not a lot of money, since chances are I, like most will only wear a few times. I thought they were a great deal to add a little color and jazz up your style."
83314,2,Love It,I had the DVD's. I upgraded to the Blu-Ray in order to get the max out of my surround sound and TV. I really love these movies.
83379,2,nice one,It very good..my hall looks good now..but it was little difficult follow the installation instructions..It could have been made much cleared..
83395,2,PT 109,"I am up to 7 books about Kennedy. I will simply say the best so far and the biggest surprise out of them all. It's a small book and would not take long to get through it, trust me it's worth the time. If you like military books, presidental books or Kennedy books. Simple the best I have read on him yet, truly shows what a great leader is."
83433,2,A drama that is beautiful,This is a beautiful movie that is really well done. It dose have some pretty funny parts in it as well. It is a mixture that is amazing. It is also a exotic type of film. But it was beautifully done.
83434,2,Great Nailer,"I bought one of these when they first came out about five years ago, and it's still going strong. I do a fair amount of trim work; doors, casing, base, crown, cabinets, etc, and this nailer is perfect for smaller jobs when you don't want to drag your air tools to the site. It has plenty of power and can easily drive a 2 1/2 inch nail into maple or oak or other hard woods. I highly recommend this tool."
83450,2,"Great, Wonderful, and absolutely beautiful","I bought this Cd after seeing the movie and I just can't stop listening to it! It's beautiful. The music is simply magical it makes you want to listen to it again and again. I would really purchase this Cd. Even if you don't like classical, like me, I found it wonderful."
83494,2,Works great with my Zen,"Bough it for my Zen to use in my GM Tahoe. At first, it sounded muffled, so I turned off the SMART VOLUME and RESTRICT VOLUME in the Zen. I would give it 5 stars but the cord is super long and doesn't look so good, but it sounds great."
83512,2,The legendary album sounds great on Vinyl!,"The vinyl version of this album looks and sounds great, the orignial artwork was redesigned to fit the huge package in a creative way, I highly recommend this product"
83589,2,Eggnog,"I enjoyed the book very much. It was well researched in most areas, but in a few places it appears that a certain amount of distracting, and unnecessary literary license was used. Two examples come immediately to mind. Crewmen bailing out Jerry's doomed B-25 during a typhoon, with no indication of how those who bailed out survived ground contact upon landing with winds meeting the minimal thresold of about 75 mph. 75 mph equates to just over 100 feet per second. It is difficultr to understand how anyone could have survived a parachute landing in those conditions. The same for Jerry's brother flying in the typhoon looking for Jerry. The L-4's (Piper Cub) extremely light wing loading would have made taxiing on the ground impossible in such fierce winds. Please, authors and researchers, think these things through, have the material proof read by qualified persons before publishing."
83625,2,Farscape is awesome!!!!,"Great stories, excellent acting, awesome sets & special effects. This is one of the best science fiction shows I've ever seen! Incredibly funny too!!!! The chemistry between Ben Browder & Claudia Black is fantastic. I highly recommend getting all four seasons and the Mini Series too!!!"
83677,2,Buena musica,"On her first album Karyn Black has produced a vey listenable album. The music style is a blend of different types, that is both easy to get on with and yet still catches you. I really enjoy listening to ""Beneath the Sheltering Sky"", and can't wait for the next album"
83682,2,The Best,"As a relative of a survivor of the FRANKLIN and a forty year student of it's history, I would rate this as the BEST EVER of any of the publications about this ship. All though there are a few technical ""Glitchs"" from the ""Hollywood"" type people involved, the producer/writer, Joe Springer, has done a superb job with vast interviews with FRANKLIN survivors and years of study.BROVO ZULO to Joe."
83721,2,Great for our small breed dog!,"This is an awesome product for small breed dogs/puppies. We have a 9 week old Chihuahua puppy that loves it. I wouldn't recommend it for a large breed dog, as it would be too small and a larger breed dog could easily destroy this, but for a dog the size of our is it great! I warm it for 35 seconds and place it in his crate with him at nap or night time, and he snuggles up with it and chews on the puppy pal's ""tail"", and falls right to sleep! No more crying! =)"
83736,2,Latin Fun,"I'm not one to jump on the ""Pretty boy of the hour"" bandwagon, but after his performance on the AMA show, I was intrigued. This CD is a good blend of Bonbon shaking fun and oozing romantic ballads. It's easy to listen to and a great way to put a little latin spice in your life!"
83754,2,I like,"It's sturdy, it feels solid, and it does the job. I'm glad I got it and would recommend it.Yup."
83776,2,Bring It On Movie,Purchased this movie for my grandchildren. They seemed to enjoy it very much. Thanks to Amazon Prime for many movies for all of the family.
83809,2,You just can't knock it.,"This title is this first chapter in the evolving world of Dragon Ball Z, and although it shows, it's still a great show. There are countless niggles with dubbing and corny plots, but that is the essence of the series, and there is no better way to enter into the genre than to see the start point."
83888,2,Awesome,"It really captivates you. You could sit there for hours listening to it and not get bored. I really recommend these tapes. The one problem is that it's a little varied from the book and a little harder to understand, but overall really good."
83952,2,Tribulation Force,The book was advertised accurately and it was in fine shape when I received it.Thanks
84079,2,Woohoo!,"This is the first book in a marvelous series! Fun, light mystery! I very much enjoyed this book. The character development is wonderful."
84083,2,Even out the Bull reviews,"Hey, I think DBZ is cool and those guys who wrote 1 star reviews aren't. I haven't seen this particular one though."
84085,2,Your body will thank you for it!,"Gilad makes you WORK off the pounds (""Eight more time!!!""), and this video is useful for anyone--at any fitness level--who wants to add intense aerobic activity to their excercise regimen. It's a 45 minute, breathtaking masterpiece!"
84095,2,Tear Soup,Excellent book for anyone of any age going through the grieving process. I really liked having it available to read to my grandson when he asked me why I was crying. I recommend it whenever I can. It does not specifically mention death so it can be read by those who have experienced a loss of any kind.
84098,2,Love it!,"Would definitely buy from this seller again, look forward to it! Was shipped super fast and excellent communication! Thanks so much"
84126,2,Great for any level including middle aged moms!,"This video is great even if you haven't exercised for years-not difficult to keep up with the warmup, some floor exercises are tough but after 3 weeks, I can do most of it. Gilad seems to read your mind as you exercise and encourages you to continue. I am using this video exclusively and am not tiring of the routine-I think it is the perfect work-out for those of us who think we are too far gone!"
84144,2,Buyer Beware,I think pretty much everything that could be said about the movie has already been written here. But I just want to send a caution out. This is just a single disk addition. I never noticed that when I ordered. I'm not sure why they even put out movies without both disks on a huge production like this. Anyway for a few dollars more you can get the full two disk set.
84210,2,Not just good ~~~~ GREAT!,"Not going to relate the whole movie for you but will simply say that if you like action and Bruce Willis you better see this FOR SURE!Best performance by Willis that I've seen yet, guy really can act which I hadn't seen to this degree before.Kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time!"
84238,2,Good Value,"While no one can really tell this stuff is working until you live 30% longer (like the lab rats did), which can take a long time, I think that the dosage and price represents a good value."
84275,2,Ready For Something Different?,"I've been a DJ for 27 years. currently US music is in a vast slump of unoriginal, uncreative, unartistic, sensationalistic GARBAGE. The new ""music"" I get every week mostly gathers dust waiting for a request. i've mixed and remixed 60's 70's 80's till I can't remenber what i just played so i have to keep a show log. so to put a different spin on things I have turned to World Music,to add a little flavor to the mix, I found Ishtar from the group Alabin my ears like the sound,my eyes were pleased by Ishtar and the rhythm moved my soul. I knew I had found the spice for my next dance mix. Don't mis Ishtar ""truly""Emet CD."
84581,2,must read for build it yourselfers,"This is NOT a book about the construction skills that are required to build a house. It IS a book about the philosophy that is required for such an undertaking.I've been 2 feet away from the edge of building my own for a while, and this book made me feel like I had to take one step closer.Even if you are not near that edge, it's a good entertaining read that will get you thinking about the way most of the ""civilized"" world looks at shelter."
84598,2,Works great with Sony Ericcson T616,"i just got this unit and paired it directly with my SE T616 (which has bluetooth support). I use the base unit only for charging the headset. If you have a bluetooth phone and get this unit you will need to lookup the jabra website for documentation on how to pair it to a phone directly. I can answer and end calls simply using the button on the headset, no need to use my phone. The call quality is pretty good. The only issue ive had so far is that the headset can be a little too loud. The main caveat with using any headset, wired or wireless is the voice activation on your phone. I find that my phone frequently does not match my voice commands."
84629,2,so much better than my old box,"This litter box is such an improvement on our old standard type litter box. It works really well, but you have to make sure you tip and empty every one to two days. While that may sound obvious, with the fact that the box is 'covered' and contains smell a bit better you may have a tendency to not be as vigilant about daily cleaning. Our two cats took to it as soon as I set it down on the floor, no need to keep the old box out for them to still use while getting used to the new one. This new box seems to do very well at handling two cats."
84676,2,The anti-divorce box,"Um.. wow. That's all I can say. This box clearly saved my marriage :) Now we no longer fight over who will clean the cat litter. It's easy, clean, mess-free. We have 3 cats so we have the large and daly cleaning is a snap.."
84682,2,One of a kind,"There are very few options left for lamps that take lantern batteries. These were about the only ones I found, and while I can't estimate battery life yet, they work fine."
84704,2,Animation Writing and Development : From Script Development,"Jean Ann Wright's ""Animation Writing and Development : From Script Development to Pitch"", is a comprehensive and well written book, on the subject.I would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in writing for animation."
84712,2,A light intro to making sense of the religious right,"For many Americans, the words, actions and worldview of the religious right are incomprehensible, fearsome, and sometimes seemingly crazy. Robert Boston's engaging book, largely accounts of his personal experiences, and informed by his vast knowledge, is an excellent place for students and others seeking introductory material to start. From there, such logical companion works as Frederick Clarkson's Eternal Hostility: The Stuggle Between Theocracy and Democracy; Jean Hardisty's Mobilizing Resentment, or Boston's other books, make much more sense. Close Encounters is a good beginning for a bookshelf about the religious right in the U.S."
84713,2,Good but surprised,I bought this press for a family member who lives in Africa who often does not have electricity to run the coffeemaker. He will be able to use this when he can only heat water by gas. He says it works well but he was surprised that he could only get 2 mugs of coffee on one brew because of the amount of foam that seems to build when you add the water. I don't have any experience with coffee presses but maybe this info will help someone else.
84723,2,Best price,"Best price on these, picked up for my leopold rangefinder. They tend to have a longer shelf life than others, so I can store them & always have an extra with me."
84767,2,Awesome for the price that is!,Purchased it from (something like out post.com ) for $299.I'm happy with it especially for the price paid. Used built in unit in Mercedes 300E and it has larger screen and all but it was very expensive option. Beauty of this device based on pocked pc is that you can take it with you anywhere! Set up was simple but noticed that map is bit outdated as noted by other reviewers.GPS at times took a while to lock on but once it locked stayed the course. And placing it on windshied meant I don't have to take my eye off too.I'd give 4 only due to the outdated map.
84791,2,Should've bought one years ago,"This inexpensive easy-to-install simple little device completely stopped the awful hammering noise my Samsung front-load washer had made since we bought it. It used to sound like the pipes were going to be pulled out of the wall when the washer began to fill, but with this device--no more noise or stress on the pipes. My hsuband put one on each of the hot and cold water leadins to the washer in about 10 minutes."
84907,2,HP Provides Excellent Support,"When my HP PSC2175 arrived, I immediately set it up and could not get it to work. Being fairly literate with technology, I was pretty sure it was not something I was doing wrong, so I called the HP technical support number included with the accompanying written information.I was connected to a technician quickly. He was very patient and knowledgeable and ran me through a number of checks to see what was wrong. It turned out that I had to return the unit (yes, a bummer), but HP made that easy. They sent me a new one within 5 days. All I had to do was set up the new one, put the old one in the box the new one came in, and slap on the UPS label to return it.While I would have preferred to avoid the above hassle, HP was exceedingly professional and responsive. And, my replacement unit works great. I love it!"
84972,2,Femme Fatale,"In the world where a woman can handle a gun and be as merciless and seemingly unemotional as any man, the anti- heroine named Nikita (Anne Parillaud in a performance of her life) is given a reprieve from a death sentence by government agents that want to use her as an undercover assassin.Director Luc Besson made a movie that manages to keep a high level of energy and our interest - from the opening scene - a violent drugstore shootout until the very last moment.Terrific cast include also Jean-Hughes Anglade (Queen Margot, Killing Zoe), Tcheky Karyo (Kiss of the Dragon, Addicted to Love 1997), Jeanne Moreau - the legend of the French cinema (""Jules and Jim"", ""Elevator to the Gallows"", ""Going Places""), and Jean Reno (""Leon"", ""Ronin"")Stylish, ultraviolent, cynical but strangely engrossing - ""La Femme Nikita"" is a must see for the fans of clever action movies. Don't bother with the American remake (Bridgett Fonda) or TV series with the same title - see only original."
84973,2,60TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY THROW,"I HAD LOOKED LONG AND HARD FOR SOMETHING FOR MY PARENT'S60TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY, AND WHEN I SAW THIS BEAUTIFULTHROW...I THOUGHT ""THIS IS IT""MY PARENTS LOVE IT...AND EVERYONE WANTED TO KNOW WHERE IHAD FOUND IT. THE QUALITY IS VERY GOOD...THE COLOR CLARITYIS RICH AND VIBRANT..."
84982,2,The Ugly Dachshund,"We have a Weimaraner, and two dachshunds. Well, Brutus, the Great Dane in this movie is halarious, and reminds me so much of our silly Weim! How Brutus thinks he can do everything the dachs do! I had to own this, as it reminds me of our household. I'm so glad it is back out! Anyone who loves dogs will find this very enjoyable!"
85091,2,Perfect for a pet,"Borrowed one from a friend and it has become our dog's crate. Leaves enough space for his bed, floor space and water bowl. Friend needed theirs back so we bought the exact same thing. Easy in and out. Getting the joints to move is a bit tricky but once it's set, we are good."
85147,2,It is a book you should not miss!,"This book is one of her best works. i really like it. Well, i'm not very good in English, but i read its English edition five time before i got its Chinese edition.Eery exciting the book is and it worth reading again and again.Now i have three copy of its English edition,i put one of them at home and bring the other two to my university,so that i can read it again whenever i want.Go and get one!!! It's a book you should not miss!"
85163,2,One fine backpack for the business person on the go,A fellow coworker recommended this backpack. It holds everything you could need! It is comfortable to wear over the shoulders and quickly changes to rolling on wheels when needed. I have recommended this to other coworkers who struggle with the one shoulder laptop holders that weight them down! Save you back and shoulders with this ergonomic great backpack.
85317,2,nice...but most of the hard disk is used,"Well it's nice and I needed it...but there is no install CD for it which worries me. Everything (OS, programs etc) is stored on separate partition on the harddrive from which you can restore the system which worries me because what if the disk crashes?And because of this restore partition and all of XP and such...it seems that only like 32gb were on the disk and only 22 free...maybe i'm exaggerating.."
85318,2,This Miltary Action Book was Great!,Talon Force goes to Central Asisa to takedown the headquarters of some rouge siceneists. These rouge terrorists have a laser armed satlite and have already used it on some targets. I hope the next book is great as well.
85329,2,Very Good Book,All Quiet on the Western Front is a pretty good book. It comprises events in history to support the reality of the book. Would not recommend if your looking for a lot of action/warfare (not too much of it).
85354,2,Forensics Primer,Great intro book to a fascinating specialty. Fun for CSI junkies like myself. A good read.
85379,2,Great Tank Top,Nice Y-back tank top like bodybuilders wore in the golden era! The product shipped fast and it feels like pretty high quality material; made of 100% cotton. I normally wear a large size t-shirt but ended up ordering a medium in this and it fits great even after a first wash.
85386,2,This is the first book that I have seen that focuses on the,"One of the strongest aspects of this book is the profiles and case studies.I also like the way the book relates real life experiences and sample scenarios, to the content. I think this book would be quite competitive in today's market. This is the first book that I have seen that focuses on the project management side of the web development business. It has people and project emphasis that I like."""
85402,2,GREAT!!!,Fast shipping! Great product! Thanks so much! Would buy from again! The case and everything with this game was in great condition! Thanks again!
85406,2,Satisfaction,"Dear Poppy:Please, please, please, continue writing books just like Liquor and don't listen to anyone else, especially the dingbats writing reviews on amazon. Except for me and the other positive guys. I am so satisfied after reading Liquor that I almost wish I hadn't read it yet so I could read it again.More than anything else I could say, it's truly a wonderful story. A great story is hard to find these days. This is the best novel I've read since Gaiman's American Gods.I've also been a loyal fan of Poppy's since high school (27 now) and can really appreciate growing up with her, in many senses. I feel like Liquor is a culmination of everything she's learned about writing until now. Her characters are alive in your head. Their skepticism and passions are clear and true. Like all of Poppy's characters, I cared for them and wished for their success. I also was hungry. Real hungry. But at least I feel like my mind and heart were well fed."
85474,2,Well rounded illustrated book for kids...,"This book would make a fine gift for someone wishing to introduce a child to a little history of the old west, while at the same time acquainting them with an outline of the coin minting process. Accompanied by many illustrations (nicely printed book), the text is suitable for younger children (I'd say up to 10 years old or so) and will offer a pleasant insight into the life of the man who designed one of our nation's most distinctive coins. Definitely recommended.-- Greg Burns-- Editor, The NASC Quarterly, ...-- Editor, The GlenCoin News, ... (pending)"
85492,2,BBC MINI-SERIES - NOT TO BE MISSED,"Olivia Manning was a British novelist of some renown, mainly due to her novels set during WWII in Bucharest, Athens and Cairo and based on the life she and her husband experienced as ex-pats and finally as exiles. During Manning's lifetime there were plans for some of her novels to be filmed but that did not transpire until 1987, several years after her death. At that time the BBC produced a brilliant mini-series called The Fortunes of War. Emma Thompson and Kenneth Branagh (who were later to marry and still later divorce) portrayed the characters of Harriet and Guy Pringle to such an effect that the viewer can feel these actors are indeed the Pringles (and by extension Manning and her husband). The DVD version that was issued in 2005 is a must-see for anyone who loves both literature and history and will enthrall those who celebrate the art of acting.Can ömlekiIstanbul Turkey"
85493,2,Absolutely Adorable!,"These earrings are absolutely adorable, and for the price, you can't go wrong! These are great for children, teenagers and anyone that loses their backs easily.The backs are a ""screw on type"" and they NEED to be twisted off. These will not just easily fall off the ear, which I love, and they are a very nice size. Not too big, but not little girl small where they won't be seen either. So, if you're looking for a special little girl, or for someone that loses backs easily, you don't have to look any further. These Screw-back earrings will be a wonderful addition to anyone's jewelry box.They are quality made and look beautiful on, I highly recommend these earrings to anyone!"
85506,2,Best briefs,"What can I say about Ck's briefs ? they are the best. The material is good, some of my briefs have more then 2 years and still look good. They are soft, you won't feel in your body."
85519,2,This movie is absolutely Stunning!,"I just saw this movie the other day and it blew my mind!! I didn't know what to expect when my friend brought it over to watch. It was gripping. The action scenes were unbelievable!! This movie totally redefines the meaning of 'hard core' - Not a movie for kids. If you like martial arts and action movies this movie is for you. Great characters, great plot and story line. Wait no longer - SEE THIS MOVIE!"
85524,2,HOO-RAH.,"Really enjoyed this classic FPS. Hardcore gamers wont be disappointed. i highly recommend purchasing. Graphics are great, story-line is solid (and not so short) , audio is excellent and the price is right."
85528,2,nice game,"I like the game but Im stuck, I killed all the enemies and dont know how to proceed. I dont know where to go and how to get out of this chapter, really aggrevating. So the game just sits on the shelf."
85647,2,"Not perfect, but close","I bought this unit on an impulse and did the research afterwards. Fortunately, I think I made a pretty good choice. Once you've had an MP3 deck in your car, you'll never go back to an ordinary CD player. You can put at least 10 albums on one disk. The sound quality is indistinguishable from the original, at least to my ears. Here are my small complaints:The display is poorly designed. The unit can only display one thing at a time. So if the clock is display, no song titles or radio station information. That makes the clock pretty useless. If the song title is display, no track or elapsed time info.The unit can only do random selection within a folder.You have to flip down the faceplate to change CD's. Kind of a nuisance."
85690,2,Amazon MP3 Bought Songs...Awesome!,"Jah Jah City and Jah Blessing are by far the most awesome songs I have ever heard. Full of feeling and rythm, man you just can't ignore it, and it's message. Totally aweseome!"
85711,2,Thematically Brilliant..if not slightly overwritten at times,"This is my first introduction to VS Naipaul's work. This collection contains some segments from his novels as well as essays he's collected in various volumes. Regarding his fiction, I think it's very good--especially if you like Indian writing (which I love). Of his essays in his edition, I think Jasmine is my favorite--all because of the last few paragraphs.Naipaul's set-up always leads to perfect execution, though, at times, elements of his writing seemed overblown, overembellished. His essay on Mobutu and the first half of Jack's Garden struggled in keeping my attention, though, both had wonderful themes once finished.This seems to be a nice study of his work. The balance between fiction and non-fiction was consistent and welcome."
85750,2,So excited!!!!,I bought this product for my 3 year old daughter for Christmas. I cannot wait to see her face on Christmas morning!I also got it for a good price. You can't beat that!
85839,2,Should be on DVD,"I dont know why this is not available on DVD in the US. It is available in the UK and Germany, so it should be made available. I dont buy VHS anymore, so I'll have to wait until Disney unleashes this treasure in the right format. Wait for the dvd."
85885,2,Godzilla Returns!,"This movie is great, the Super-x is looks great. Godzilla is more bigger looking in this movie than in any of the ones made before it."
85886,2,Godzilla destroyes Japan once more.,Godzilla against Japans army.No Oxygen Destroyer this time.Get this movie if you want to know how Japan gets rid of him this time. Movie #16 of 23.
85905,2,Wire Mesh Gate,Love the ease of putting it up for when we have our bunny out of his cage. He can't jump over it and it works well for our dog also.
85926,2,Great writing ...,"A friend gave me this book to read and I thought it was great writing throughout ... the author is no novice ... if not for the fact espionage does very little for me, this would be a five star review, but it's my inability to get excited about anything spy that left me wanting in the end. I did enjoy reading about the Swedish coastline during WWII because of having read The 900 Days (about the seige of Leningrad) and how the nazi's had mined all the surrounding waters, so it was enjoyable to be somewhat familiar with that material. Once again, the writing was superb ... espionage just isn't my cup of tea."
85928,2,Brenda Lee 20th Century Masters Coll.,This is an awesome cd. Brings back so many memories. I really appreciate the eco-friendly pkg too. Its so great to be able to do business in this fashion. Anything we want anytime we want! Thanks for being there!
85997,2,"Brilliant, Honest, Rock Masterpiece all that & Sexey too","I saw the film when it was first released to VHS and welcomed it to my collection of rock related films. I've been waiting for the DVD since, and I found it yesterday. The extra features on the DVD, version including interviews makes it even better. I consider it a masterpiece of rock documentary. I highly recommend it to those not easily offended by honest sexual content... I was glad to hear in the included interview material that Cynthia Lennon was so pleased with the film that she brought Julian to see it so as to better understand his father. Excellent story development, casting, and attention to detail. As to long tall Sally, sorry Sir Paul.. we know you still rock."
86001,2,Biolean review,I have used biolean for one month and have lost 5-7 lbs. I also exercise with the curves program 5 days a week for 30 minutes. I have had no side effects that I'm aware of. Haven't had problems sleeping. I do feel it gives me more energy. My son has lost more than 50 lbs using this product over a 3-4 month period. My goal is to lose 20 lbs so I will continue with Biolean until that goal is reached.
86014,2,See Why This Disc Has Won Innumerable Awards!,"GHOSTDANCE is a phenomenal album. For me, the title song comes the closest to matching the magic of hearing Bill Miller live in concert. From beginning to end, GHOSTDANCE sends shivers up and down the listener's spine with its poignance and poetry. Having been graced with the good fortune to see Miller two Augusts ago at Musikfest (Bethlehem, PA), I must avow that the in-concert Bill Miller is even more powerful and mystical than what has been captured on the album GHOSTDANCE. I will never forget the transfigurative ""Amazing Grace,"" ""All Along the Watchtower,"" etc. from that evening. I hope Bill continues to work with the producer of GHOSTDANCE: although this album is the best yet, there's even more to come. Thank you, Mr. Miller, for sharing your vision, your healing powers, and your grace with the world. We're waiting for more rain from your thundrous talent!"
86024,2,I love it more than my son!,"This is an awesome product. The ants are busy and the tunnels look so cool in the gel. My 2-year old can pick it up without disturbing them too much. It comes with a little magnifying glass so you can really see how they chew up the gel and make the tunnels. I would recommend buying the ants directly from the Lifeworks website instead of using the order form, then popping them in the fridge for a few minutes to slow them down before you put them in. After that you only need to crack it open once a week or so to give them air, but they seem to go to sleep in the evenings so I don't worry about them escaping. It is really a fascinating toy!"
86101,2,cozy,We love these sheets! My husband says he's had the best night's sleep ever since I bought these.
86161,2,Sony VMC15FS A/V Cable,Hate the fact that Sony has a special cable for its camcorders but I bought this OEM cable for a great price.
86188,2,"Long-time user, finally reviewer.","I've been wearing Bvlgari Black for very nearly eight years and have received only good responses to it. The stuff smells phenomenal and I'd highly recommend trying it out.To my senses the scent seems to fade very quickly after application, which I know is a major contention some have with this product, however I've been told that this isn't actually the case by those around me - even after a full night of work or day of walking the scent is still perceptible, just not to the wearer it seems.I'd advise to avoid the Tester bottles, the standard ones are a bit more pricey however for every Tester bottle I've had (two or three of them) the sprayer breaks and I'm left with roughly a quarter to an eighth of the bottle wasted. Which is a shame..."
86190,2,Night Fire,I am a huge Shannon Tweed fan. The order arrived in excellent shape for a used dvd and arrived quickly.
86236,2,Keeps them entertained!,"This video kept my one baby entertained from about 6mos old until 3yrs old and is now keeping my 2nd child who is now one years old entertained. It is one of my lengthiest videos and gives parents some quiet time. As far as it being very educational for this age group....my kids grasped the numbers and letters from other dvds as opposed to this one...but it is creative, entertaining, and engaging. Def worth it being in your dvd collection but if you're looking at this dvd as one that will actually teach, it may be a dissapointment and for that...I will give it 4stars."
86299,2,best camera bag yet,"This is great for me - I have a dSLR and two lenses, plus a few accessories. Add a lens and you'll need a bigger bag. So much more convenient than the bag my camera came with. It's slim and I can walk down the aisle of an airplane and not have to turn sideways anymore. Lots of padding too. Would definitely recommend."
86309,2,Pretty Decent with TV,"Not sure about range - I go outside with them but can't go real far. Receiver is sitting on the tv. I've had them for some time. Only complaint I have is that the AAA Rechargeable batteries I have won't work in them. I haven't tried lithium batteries, but I plan to. For the price, they do a pretty good job."
86328,2,Riveting!,"This is a fast read filled with witty dialogue, clear prose, believable characters, and a charmingly humblehearted narrator-persona. And not without its poignant moments. Some if the chapter endings, in particular, give pause. An example is when Jennifer, in an effort to calm her friend Courtney from her fear of plane-travel, says the view from the plane is like ""the viewpoint of God."" Courtney tells her not to say that, and when Jennifer asks why, Courtney says, ""Because I don't see any people down there."" Hornburg tackles-and more notably, articulates-the larger, timeless, ageless, genderless questions that fill up not only Jennifer and Courtney, but also each and every one of us-one moment with awe, the next moment with terror-as we stare out our ""small plastic window[s], lean forward and look back"" at the complicated, unpredictable roadways of our lives. Hornburg helps us make sense of it all. Bravo!"
86524,2,Such a Gift,"I practice Raviana Kundalini Yoga 5-7 times a week. I am enjoying a mental, spiritual and emotional transformation as a result. Body Electric has become one of my favorite practices. I embrace the challenge of this DVD and feel such strength, peace and energy afterwards. Thank you Ravi and Ana. You do so much for so many and I am so grateful that I am one of them.Blessings and joy, Sat Nam."
86551,2,Great Product But Watch The Price!,"This is the best men's bronzer I have ever used. However, the average store price is around $13. Be aware of merchant's trying to sell it for $20. You can pick it up at many stores for $13 and find merchant's on the web who offer free shipping at this price."
86557,2,Enigma goes to Ireland!,"I love this CD! This is some of the most relaxing music I've found in quite a while. I work at home a lot late a night, and this CD never fails to put me in a more receptive mood. If you like Enigma, you'll definitely love this album. The beats are often similar to Enigma, but the Irish influence is of course unmistakeable. If you just want to kick back, have a glass of wine, and unwind after a crazy day, this is the music for you."
86579,2,Just what I needed,This was just what I needed. I was a little worried as this keeper was the most inexpensive one; but it turns out to be terrific. It is well constructed and works great on my 72mm (filter size) lens.
86629,2,"My new marriage ""bible""","This is a great book written by an author who clearly knows her stuff as a marriage counselor, has been there as a mom/wife, and has a good sense of humor. I found many insights and helpful tips in this book. I wish I had found it sooner, I think it would be great to read before the birth of the baby though it will be helpful for anyone with young kids looking to make positive changes to their marriage. I marked many pages and will be keeping this nearby to revisit and try ideas from."
86695,2,Great Sci Fi,"Threshold is an engrossing and underated Sci Fi series. Unfortunately, only lasted one season. But, I'd put it up there with the best of Sci Fi TV.For anyone who hasn't seen it. You can think of it as a cross between the X Files and a CSI show.Intense, creepy and funny. Recommended for Sci Fi, horror or detective fans."
86744,2,For All You Remake Haters,"Alright look, obviously most of the people who hate this movie are fans of the original. I agree the original was much better, but come on how can you say that this movie was not well done. I think that the casting, directing, and producing was really great. I like the fact that Michael Bay took out some of the things from the original, because it brings the focus on the best character, LEATHERFACE! In the original leather face was whinny and in the new one he is a straight up savage. He does not waste his time with a dumb little chainsaw dance at the end, come on that is a cheesy idea. The only thing that I really did not like about this movie is that the producer and director tried to stay away from the cannibal idea. I think that that idea adds extra intensity and makes the movie more scary. Trust me folks if you want a gory in your face type of movie then check it out, otherwise go rent that corny flick Freddy Vs. Jason. Peace!"
86745,2,Good version,"This movie is good, I am a Jessica Beil fan and she is the main reason I hunted this one down to buy. Jessica does great in it as well as her boyfriend. He is a great actor.Would defiently buy again.Great addtion to my collection!"
86806,2,Love it!,I loved watching this movie on dvd and just love the music! Now I can take it with me when I leave the house. The music is captivating.
86843,2,Get it!,"I can still remember my mother reading this to me. A ""Must Have"" childrens book. I will start reading it to my daughter very soon!"
86891,2,Great Gift Idea - Unique and very cool,I just watched my copy of this DVD last night and it is soooo kewl! It is very calming and spacey. Even my cat was watching the TV and looking zen. I am back to order a couple for Christmas gifts. If you are looking for a very unique and very cool gift idea...THIS IS IT!
86892,2,Pure Outlaw !!!!,"This is WAYLON at His Best !!!! Pure Outlaw Music, & I'm sure You'll Enjoy this CD as much as I have....ENJOY !!!!"
86912,2,Perfect,"I had to see this on commercial TV, and even butchered-even though I knew it was about the life and untimely death of Conan creator, Robert E. Howard I was profoundly affected. This is a movie where everything comes together perfectly. The sets, the beautiful script, the wonderful and earnest performances. This was my intro to Renee Zellwiger and I fell in love. In fact, this movie is about, and was made with, a lot of love."
86951,2,Great movie,I love reading or viewing programs related to tarantulas. This movie gives you pretty good information on tarantulas. I've watched it atleast 10 times.
86991,2,Perfect no nonsense formattng software,"Final Draft is essential for students and industry professionals. I've been using it for a decade and have no complaints. But screenwriting software won't make you a good writer. For that you need practice and educational tools likeThe Bare Bones Book of Screenwriting: The Definitive Beginner's Guide to Story, Format, and Business"
87148,2,Make sure you buy M16672.2E,"Navigation Rules is an essential text. It is required for all boats over 40 feet. As a member of the Coast Guard Auxiliary I must pass a test on Navigation Rules every five years.HOWEVER, the version offered by Amazon is out of date. The latest is M16672.2E. If you are the Master of an Inspected Commercial Vessel, you MUST have the latest edition or you will not pass inspection. Coast Guard Auxiliary Vessel Examiners must not certify Coast Guard Auxiliary Facilities that do not carry M16672.2E."
87163,2,Dianetics is incredible!,I can honestly say after reading Dianetics that the mind is comprehensible. I've read many books on the subject of the mind and I was more confused after reading them than before. Dianetics gives you the solution to rid yourself of that part of the mind that's wrecking your life. I would recommend it to anyone and it is a MUST!
87180,2,Love the series but....,"I am an avid 'original' Starsky & Hutch fan...I had the series books, Paul Michael Glaser lived on my wall next to Bruce Lee until I came home from college in '82, and let's not even discuss the Tiger Beat magazine collection I kept. I love the fact that the series is available on DVD but where is the quality with Season 3? Fans have waited 8 months for a better job and it's just not there this time. I am watching the series backwards, and the quality of ""Quadromaina"" is awful. It's grainy in spots and the part where Starsky's head connects with the glass of the cab was totally cut from the scene. And there are no promo spots listed this time around. Please, theres only one more season left, at least make it a good one!"
87242,2,Avril prevails...again.,"No matter how much all of the OH SO PUNXERZ kids complain about how much Avril Lavigne has ruined music, I will always love and listen to it. Once again, Avril has shown me why I listened to Let Go 10 times a day. Under My Skin will never stop playing at my house, and I believe it will outsell Let Go...not that sales really matter, I just personally think it's a better record than Let Go. She's matured so much. Thanks very much Avril, awesome stuff."
87309,2,Every little aid helps,"As a ""senior adult"" with both arthritis and Parkinson's Disease, I need all the help I can get. My handwriting has become virtually impossible to read because it is so small. Trying to read my grocery list in the grocery store is sometimes a real guessing game. The Pen Again writing stylus is a real help. I am still adjusting to the new finger placement, but I do believe it is an advantage."
87353,2,Still a favorite,"I had this book in a previous printing and lost it in a move. Now that I have it back in its new printing, it's like being united with an old friend. It is the most clear and comprehensive book on Fair Isle knitting that I know of. Also, Starmore presents the material with tons of beautiful photos and lots of tips and unique and helpful ways to describe what's supposed to be happening with the yarns. Starmore is so smart and talented but her writing is not snooty or condescending (like the Principles of Knitting author). I'm going to attempt my first steek with my next project!"
87391,2,Moving Sidewalks - 'Flash' (Akarma),"Originally released in 1968, this was the Houston band's sole album. As some of you do know, this was guitarist Billy Gibbon's band before joining up with ZZ Top. All ZZ fans might not even like this CD reissue. Basically, it's very good '60's psychedelia, with a bit of blues here and there. Most happening tracks, I thought were ""Flashback"", ""You Make Me Shake"", ""Crimson Witch"", the ultra-weird freaky ""Eclipse"" (listen very closely to this cut), their Beatles cover ""I Want To Hold Your Hand"" and ""Need Me"". Line-up: Billy Gibbons - guitar & vocals, Don Summers-bass, Tom Morre - organ, keyboards & piano and Dan Mitchell - drums. Should appeal to fans of Blue Magoos, Electric Prunes, Music Machine and 13th Floor Elevators. Heard they once toured with the Elevators back in the day. A should have. Recommended."
87409,2,love,"yes,you can go home again.this book proves that statement.barbara freethy proves that there can be happy endings in life.this book is a must for all romantics."
87484,2,A Great Book,Books on Uighurs are so rare. Let's thank Christian Tyler for giving us this fascinating book.
87522,2,A very funny comedy movie!!!,"This is a great and watchable ,ovie, especially if you're a Jack Lemmon(Out to Sea,Grumpier Old Men)! Its plot is great too.Two old men start to fight over a redhead lady who is their neighbor. They keep competeing with each other to see who will get her. I don't want to give the end away-it's too funny!This movie is hilarious-especially the take-outs at the end of the movie. The only problem in it is that the plot can get sorta old. Other than that, it's pretty much a must-see. Check out my other reviews for other comedies like the National Lampoon series!"
87615,2,NIce Find,"I was looking for the cd's that look like old 45 records and couldn't find them in local stores. After doing a search, I checked out the site of the producing company of this brand and Amazon. I found what I was looking for (I also purchased a label kit made for these cd's) at Amazon at a comparable price. I haven't burned the cd's yet, but am sure they will work well.Thanks, Amazon, for offering the product I needed."
87630,2,"Read by Author, in this case, is a good thing.","I've always avoided audio books read by the author. Lawrence Block, in this reading, is an exceptional exception. His vocal intonations and style add to the narrative in ways that you'd miss just reading the book, especially in the conversations between Keller and Dot. Keller is my favorite fictional character, and in this book the story flows remarkably well considering the book is a group of short stories strung together. This is great fun and entertainment, highly recommended."
87634,2,Incredible!,"This volume is of incredible value from both an historical perspective and from a study of lycanthropy world-view as well. Comprehensive. I would highly recommend it to anyone delving into this fascinating behavioral syndrome and the history attached to it. Originally published in 1912 (I believe), you will find it heavy to read now and then but the insights gained are worth the effort. Not a ""neo-werewolf"" volume! Don't bother if you think Oz on Buffy the Vampire Slayer defines werewolves."
87723,2,Outdoor light timer,This timer was priced well and works great for our sidewalk lights. You can set it for whatever times you want them to come on and go off.
87775,2,what a fun book!,"I am about to have my first baby, and this was such a fun book to read about what I have to look forward to! Great gift idea for moms-to-be or new moms!"
87810,2,Sweet! Better then the first!,"I got it as soon as it came out! IT kicks! It's even got that sunscreen speech! The best various artist CD around, even better then jock jams! But, i don't like all the rap type songs."
87830,2,Keeps them busy!,"I bought a dozen of these for the goody bags for my daughter's fourth birthday party where Cinderella was the guest of honor. I also keep a couple in my bag (Cinderella, Cara the Cowgirl, others from the same series) for an instant fix for bored kids! They love them."
87882,2,Good buy!,These are very comfortable lightweight pants. I plan to buy more in other colors. Made of a nice soft fabric.
87930,2,"pretty great, a little loud","We live in an old house that the previous occupants smoked in (for 40+years). For obvious reasons we needed an air purifier to help battle the odor (even after painting). The Honeywell HHT-011 seems to work great and I hope will help deal with any mold spores floating around. Other reviews were correct: It isn't the quietest, and sounds like a fan. The sound is consistent, though, and it becomes white noise after a few minutes. It's been two weeks and I think it's helping! Four stars only because of the sound..."
87969,2,Great film to see,This film was very good and the actors took the story to another level. It was great to go on this journey with these characters and the film was entertaining!! I definitely recommend seeing the film and its well worth your money. Two thumbs up
88027,2,taste,i love the taste just make sure u drink it soon after you mix it as far as the actual weight gainer working i haven't used it much because of health reasons but plan to use it in the future
88040,2,Concise and interesting,"This is a great introduction to the early church. While it provided an interesting history, the stories of the early church leaders and martyrs also were inspirational. Reading about these early heros renewed my faith in what the Catholic Church is really about. Jesus did matter and is just as relevant today."
88048,2,kiddush hashem and chillul hashem,"Traditional Judaism created the concept of ""chillul hashem"" (desecrating or embarrassing the name of G-d, usually by making Jews or Judaism look bad) and ""kiddush hashem"" (sanctifying the name of G-d) to describe behavior by Jews that makes Jews look especially bad or good (respectively) in the eyes of the gentile world. This novel is about both: most of the main character's life constituted a chillul hashem. As a German king's chief financial officer, he taxes the peasants into penury. But eventually he sabotages the king's plans for despotism and nobly stands by his religion at the cost of his life."
88196,2,I got this for summer reading...,"My university seminar class required me to read this book. I thought I was done with summer reading, but I was wrong :pHowever after reading a few pages I realized that this is not an ordinary ""classic"" novel like Jane Eyre or Great Expectations that I was so used to reading during the summer. Alexie has a very stylized voice that comes through and makes reading this novel hardly laborious.Don't be warded off when the description says that these are ""nine stories about Native Americans..."" The themes Alexie brings up are timeless and apply to us all."
88240,2,A heartwarming story of the best dog in the world.,"I grew up with the Lassie TV series so had a soft spot for her already. I purchased this book at our local book store as it was by a ""local author"" which surprised me as I live in Bucks County PA. (Lassie is actually buried here). I read this story to my almost six year old and the last few pages I was in tears, it was so touching. My son and I heartily recommend this book."
88269,2,Get it! Flat out Rock n roll,This album rocks from the get go! It sounds just as good today (2009) as it did back when it was released in 1991.
88295,2,A novel of intrigue filled with adventure,"A genetically engineered woman travels in the future world of Heinlein. A novel wrapped in future espionage and intrigue. I enjoyed Friday as a character, but felt that the story itself could have been more adventurous. You will find this novel to be quite enjoyable, and must for any Heinlein fan."
88297,2,Proof: the right hand doesn't watch the left hand in gvrnmt,"This is an excellent book that tells of tails of corruption in the corporations that grow bigger and bigger and almost take on the job of government. And then become government to make them powerful by taking over bits and pieces across the country. With the constant that there will always be an undergroud group of people who will resist and be rebels against the regime. These rebels will not be told how to do their jobs. What class of people they can be whether as an artifical person born as ""My mother was a test tube, my father was a knife"" or those that are born with a mother and father should not be considered anything but equal."
88389,2,excellent,excellent movie with superb direction from mel gibson. this should of won an oscar for independent release. very realistic depiction of jesus.
88399,2,Great book...,"Once again Nora Roberts did not disappoint me. I could not put this book down. I really felt apart of this book. In fact I was sad when I finished the book, I felt like I lost a friend!I love my Kindle!!!"
88412,2,A very good fantasy story,"""Glory Road"" is a very good fantasy story. I enjoyed it as a young adult and still enjoy it when I pick it up over forty years later. Very simply, this is a story about a soldier, coming back to the USA, who gets sidetracked by a beautiful young woman, who turns out to be the 'leader' of a multi-universe 'empire' of tens or hundreds of billions of humans.The nice thing about fantasy is that it does not get as out-dated as science fiction can get and it can stretch the mind. In this case, quite a few interesting and adventurous things happen. I will say that this book is probably too sophisticated for anyone younger than, about, 16 to 17 years old. Also, I doubt if a reader who is new to Heinlein would appreciate this book. If you are new to Heinlein, ""Space Cadet"" is a much better place to start. "" 'Waldo' & 'Magic, Inc.'"" is another very good Heinlein book of two fantasy novellas."
88442,2,Check Six! exudes excitement!,Check Six! made me laugh and cry and kept me on the edge of my seat wondering what would happen next. It also gave me a better understanding of how an aircraft carrier works and how the different personnel work together to accomplish the mission. There was plenty of high powered flying and shipboard intrigue.
88443,2,No end in sight.,"One of the best 'page turners' I've read. The author has you immersed in the story before you know it. The story line is good, the plot is believable (for the most part), and the action is non-stop. However, you're left with an ending that is inadequate, at best. I don't understand why someone would go to such lengths to develop a plot, and then leave the reader wondering 'what happened ?'."
88494,2,Great book,This book held my interest from beginning to end. I felt compassion for the main character and liked how the book made me think. There's a nice book club guide at the end as well.
88506,2,Why it's a 5 star!!!,"This CD tells what Incubus is all about. With an amazing voice of the narrator it will capture anyone and keep them listening to the CD. However it is not interesting just because of that, it really brings out the escence of what is Incubus. From the day of their formation trhough their struggles, the outcome is surely victory. So in short words, this is an amzing book brought to life, by the use of imagery, appealing to the senses and triggering the imagination in the mind."
88539,2,"Beautifully filmed, Interesting","This is definitely a beautiful, well-filmed movie. The story stays a bit of a mystery throughout. Ms. Rampling is quite good. When I looked at her career and the movies in her filmography, I was surprised to see that such a fine actress really hasn't been in that many good movies. Not a young woman anymore, Ms Rampling is still very alluring. This film has a few erotic moments, but not to the degree that some reviewers are stating. If you like a thought-provoking type of character study and a beautiful loking film this could be a good one for you."
88540,2,Love it!,"Love the rechargeable mouse..its genious! The entire package is great other than the keyboard being very light and bulky. Love it! I have had this product before (at least the mouse, which is why I purchased this package...really save $$ on batteries. Mouse and batteries lasted 5 years first go round!)."
88598,2,creative and original but slower than the last album,"This album deserves good revews but it doesn't have as much of the ""get up and rock"" sense as the last album. This change has some of the fans disappointed. Many of these fans started with the self titled album ""Sheryl Crow"" which was more upbeat than her usual work. This album contains songs ranging from slow to fast with much variety.Fans who started with the self titled album don't really recognize her work. She can be a loud jaming rock star to a slow mesmerizing singer. She's not punk rock star some think of to be. This album reflects Sheryl and if you don't like this then that would suggest that you're not a Sheryl Crow fan."
88604,2,great workout,There are two DVDs included in this product. One has a high energy workout and the other has a similar 20 minute workout if you are pressed for time. There is also a one w/ free weights so you can work in strength training as well. This is a super workout that makes you feel good once you have completed it....I was looking for something w/ high energy and this is it. Your abs will love you!! I will definitely purchase more Turbo Jam DVDs.
88614,2,Jeff Beck Group - It all started here,"I was around when the original first came out (on vinyl - no duh) and it was startling then. As a historical reminder it's still pretty good and has held up. Beck is obviously the standout and his style has grown since that earlier time but Rod Stewart struts his R&B influences really well and does a great job ad-libbing the lyrics. Bonus tracks, with the exception of unused takes of Truth material, are from earlier sessions and the sound is not as good, but help bridge the gap between Beck's Yardbird experience and the ""super group"" that appears on Truth. The truth is they weren't a supergroup at that time - just a bunch of likely contenders. The one caveat is Love Is Blue which JB himself complained was like wearing a pink toilet seat around his neck. Come to think of it that's a pretty good visual for how that track sounds. Enjoy!"
88623,2,Another winner by Ambrose,"Although not as gripping as the D-Day book, this book is another one that tough to put down."
88650,2,Random Harvest,"Very romantic, old movie. One of the best stories ever written. I have enjoyed seeing it over and over again as have my friends with whom I have shared the video."
88706,2,Three Amazing Films in One Pack!,"I love all three films in this series, and cannot wait for Year 4! It will be so great to have Year One, Year two and Year 3 all lined up next to eachother on my DVD shelf."
88713,2,Thoughtful and funny,"To be honest, I don't read very many business books but a friend recommended this one and I'm glad I read it. It's a quick, fun read, and is both comforting and inspiring. I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a little nudge in the right direction, or who just wants to do or be better than they are now."
88732,2,Very good Tribebook!,"I've seen this book before (from a friend) and have used it once. My opinion on it is very positive- as most tribe or clan books, it helps develop the character with disiplins, rituals, and/or gifts. I highly recomend this and other books of it's type."
88827,2,"""WONDERFUL BOOK""","This edition is a reproduction of the original ""Sketchbook of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs"" published in England by William Collins in 1938. With the exception of the price, the publisher's imprint, and a few minor type changes to prepare this edition for the American public, the jacket and text are reproduced directly from an original book. The simple language of sketches in this book makes it as interesting to read as the fairy tale itself. This is a Collector's Edition and First Printing! A Book everyone should have!"
88843,2,One Man Dog--Greatest Album Ever,"I'm serious. This is the best album ever made. I'm dead serious. Listen to it and find out. Better than Sgt. Pepper's. Better than Led Zep IV. And, no I'm not crazy; I just have a good ear. Song 17 is transcendant"
88958,2,An epic story,"The first word that comes to mind in describing this novel is ""epic"". It certainly spans a lot of time, a lot of lives, and a lot of stories. And it does so very well. Set in India through the middle half of the 20th century, it describes an environment of corruption, poverty, and fatalism that was enlightening. The characters in this novel, for the most part, are resigned to their course in life and are passive in terms of affecting change. The novel aims for sweeping grandeur, and achieves it. This are wrapped up a little too tidily in the end, but this is definitely a worthy read."
88975,2,So far so good..,I bought this product 3 days ago at Ulta for $55. I think there are websites that you can get it a bit cheaper but in my case I was having a skin emergency and needed something immediately. First of all the peel is really easy to do. You just cleanse your skin then use these premoistened pads to cover your face in the solution and wait 15 minutes. Then you spray yourself with neutralizer and it's done. This is the first peel I've done for myself and it was both gentle and effective. It burned a little bit when I first put it on but not for long and once I washed it off my skin was GLOWING. I used it because I was breaking out really bad randomly (which is really unusual for me) and I think it helped a little bit with that. The skin that wasn't broken out looked amazing though. Now its like 3 days after the peel and my skin is a bit dry and flakey but I'm sure in another day or two when it comes all the way off it will look great. I'd definitely recommend this product.
89030,2,Good Review For a Gift,I sent this to my sister as a gift for the holidays and New Years Eve and the review from her was that she and all the guests at her house loved these before and after dinner liquor filled chocolates...... Nice gift to be shared with many people.
89032,2,awesome!,I bought four for christmas gifts this year ... they all worked well .... everyone loved them ... defiantly recommend
89060,2,Legendary record - Jaybird,"Get this. Enough said. Seriously, I need to type more words to made it a longer review, otherwise this review would simply read, ""Get this. Enough said."""
89070,2,Quality Sound,If you know anything about Harmon Kardon than you know they produce quality products. This system is nice if you're not looking for a home theater system for your PC. It is great for everyday general computer use as well as listening to music. The highs are clear and the bass is substantial. If You're looking for a good bang for your buck computer stereo system this should work. My only suggestion is do not turn up the gain on the subwoofer too much or you'll get some distortion and wear out the life of the speaker. Also I would keep your equalizer tuned down some because the high frequencies can be a little ear piercing with four one inch tweeters.
89081,2,Vintage Hank Jones,"Solo piano and Hank Jones-Need I say more?. Jones's playing is without pretence and true to the essence of musicianship. Listen to his wonderful voicings layered with his trade mark bop runs. My favourite is his solo on Toots Thielemann's waltz ""Bluesette"". A fantastic album."
89104,2,Set aside preconceptions if you can,"Most of us, myself included, have no frame of reference for legitimate sexual servitude. One of the true minority expressions of attraction, affection, and admiration, voluntary surrender of this degree is an almost ineffable experience. Like Anne Rice's Beauty series, The Story of O gives some insight into this world. In the age of feminism, the idea of such surrender is anathema, but following the story to the end we see that O is as much the master as is Stephen. In her perfect obedience, she enslaves the man who knows he will never find such perfect submission and is enchanted.The film is beautiful,as are the people. Taken as eye candy, it is worth the price, but is further and more complex.Recommended"
89115,2,Possibly the world's best Monster Crab Movie!,"I saw this movie as a young child- I saw it every night for a week!It was featured on one of those old Scary Movie Midnight things when I was visiting relatives in MT. Vernon, NY.My older brother and I were permitted to stay up every night and watch it. We were terrorized and harbored irrational Crab fears for years.To this day- I will laugh and say ""Ha- take that"" as I eat a Blue Crab.My husband does not seem to have the same love for this film that I do, but he has no taste anyway.All of you Crab Monster fearing souls- THIS is the movie for you!"
89172,2,wonderful bike,I've using this bike for 8 months becouse i need to park far from the university so i need a compact folding bike and this one is just perfect for this. i'm very happy with this product it is durable and i did not have any problem with this bike. it is not heavy and it is easy to put together.greatproduct.
89217,2,"Love,love,love,love,love,love,love,love Waiting For A Girl Like You",Love is what I need and Waiting For A Girl Like You is what I listen to.This lovely ballad deserves way more than 5 stars because it is so beautiful and lovely and is better than any ballad by Bon Jovi or Scorpions wich their ballads make me cry compared to Waiting For A Girl Like You. Waiting For A Girl Like You always makes me happy and always and I think Lou Gramm should be honoured for being such a wonderful rock singer who is just as talented as Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day. Avoid the 1 star reviewers below and avoid all albums from super boring bands like Pink Floyd who suck heavy time.
89286,2,Great Lens for the Price,Was looking for a long lens for a reasonable price for my E-510 and found here. Was originally looking at the Sigma 50-500mm but didn't see the big advantage for twice as much money.First use of the lens was a local little league game with amazing results. Would definitely recommend this lens.
89304,2,Stomp rocks!,My 2 year old and 7 year old boys love this video. We saw a Stomp show earlier this year and they can't get enough of the beating and banging.
89415,2,great book,"I always ask my Professors if I can used a later edition textbook first before purchasing my textbooks, because it will save you a bundle of money. As an example: The 5th edition of Structure of Social Stratification has a used purchase price of 76.00, while the 4th edition of Structure of Social Stratification has a used purchase price of 0.41. Generally, if both editions are close together rarely is there much difference in the content of the books. ****The cardinal rule is to always ask your Professors first before purchasing an older edition of a textbook because it shows common sense and courtesy towards the Professor. This is a very interesting book to read and it explains the inequality of the classes in regards to advantages in the United States."
89502,2,"Fun, silly, crazy and cool","In a nutshell, if you are a fan of the scripts of Charlie Kaufman and really enjoy ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND, then this film is for you. All the other reviews tell you what it's about so I'll skip that - but if you like hyper-stylized, wacky, all-over-the-place type story all held together by amazing and emotion driven visuals - this is for you."
89544,2,One of my all time favorites,"This book is amazing. Sofie is one of my all time favorite heroines. I had to have this on my Kindle so I could read it again and again. The only problem I have with the Kindle version is there are numerous typos!!! Still, that is not the author's fault, and the book deserves a five star rating. The emotions between these characters are so intense that it grabs the readers interest from the first page and will move you to tears. I also love the fact that Sofie is such a talented artist. Torn between making her art her life and an overwhelming love for Edward. You will NOT regret reading this book. You will love it."
89561,2,Funny show. I missed it when Comedy Central cancelled it.,Funny show. I missed it when Comedy Central cancelled it. The tapes are of great quality.
89623,2,Life Changing,"""Humility"" is a simple yet profound work that has had life changining consequences for me. It has given me a clearer perspective of who God is and how I need to relate to Him and others. Andrew Murray is clearly legitamate in his life and a credible source of leadership in an area where to many are afraid to go, to a place of dependence on God and service to our fellow men. Don't miss this opportunity to be transformed."
89689,2,Millenium,"Quite easily the most complex and fascinating TV programs ever created- not only does the story line compel you to watch, but the cast itself is a remarkable mix of characters to make the story seem more real than it should be.Or is it?After 2 amazing seasons (but a rather disappointing third), this show is still one of the best things that has ever happened to television."
89725,2,Amazing,"Amazing. Very sexy and exciting but not explicit and gratuitous. We meet Flora as a young lonely girl of ten on vacation with her selfish, neglectful parents. We follow her life as she matures to a beautiful woman. Three men love her but which does she love and which one will she choose. This is one book hard to put down."
89726,2,Not completely historically accurate but wonderful,"If you are a wanting a film that is an exact history of the rise of Catherine the Great, this isn't it. That being said it is a captivating movie. I love just sitting down and watching this movie on occasion. My only complaint is that the video quality isn't the best and so that interferes with the movie. If they would release it on DVD, I'd be one happy camper!"
89752,2,my review!,i have yet to open the cologne but i have no doubt it smells lovely! especially the brand it is. it's a gift for my dad. the transaction was quick and easy and they delivered the product as soon as they promised. they also included a nice little gift as a thank you! i would buy from amazon.com and this vendor again!
89791,2,My favorite romance novel!,Friendly Enemies by V.T. Murray is my favorite romance novel of the year so far. I have had so much fun with her Lambert series as a whole and enjoyed being a part of this soap opera as it unfolded right before my eyes. The characters were easy for me to identify with and the plot held me captive from book to exciting book. I will eagerly look for more romance novels by Ms. Murray to hit the market in the near future. I have become such a fan!
89810,2,Great Cookbook,This is a great cookbook! The recipes are easy to understand and the pictures encourage you to make the dish. I highly recommend this book.
89830,2,A determined plea for support of the art of dance,"""Culture is under siege everywhere, it seems. . . . Brinson provides a determined, if often flawed, plea for support for the art of dance in Great Britain in the face of all-too-familiar financial woes. While much of his case rests on circumstances peculiar to Britain, his arguments are of interest to Americans facing similar challenges. . . . [His] detailed observations on British cultural life remind us that the attack on art is not peculiarly American. And [his] valiant, though flawed, attempts to defend dance remind us of the need for more persuasive evidence to sway the unconverted."" -- from my review for the Journal of Aesthetic Education, Vol. 27 (Summer 1993), pp. 115-117."
89908,2,knee brace,I liked this knee brace with the exception of the fact it needs more length on the velcro piece to be able tomake it fit tighter. But overall a nice product.
89916,2,Great chance to compare and contrast the plays,"Everyone has read ""Romeo and Juliet"", the classic love story by William Shakespeare, and most have seen the movie ""West Side Story,"" probably noticing some similarities- two groups against each other with lovers in the middle, and a tragic ending. But with these two plays together, you will discover almost every scene from West Side Story parallels one from R&J. The text of R&J also has notes to help the reader understand some of the difficult Shakespearean language. I am a freshman in high school and this book really helped me with an essay."
89952,2,Wonderful Car Seat!!,"My husband and I love our son's car seat. Very nice-looking car seat for the price! I have been having trouble getting the clasps open and closed, but my hubby can get it no problem. That is my only problem. Love it though!!!"
90048,2,Worth Waiting For,"It seems that Olivia Newton-John doesn't get older, she gets better. This is her best singing to date. Soulful, passionate and beautiful. The arrangements are exquisite from start to finish and Phil Ramone's producing is top notch."
90091,2,Must Have Books,If you don't have these books your not catching all the fish you should. This guy knows how to catch fish and lets you in on all of his secrets. Must have book if you are serious about bass fishing.
90117,2,Cuisinart Supreme Grind Automatic Burr Mill,"The Cuisinart does a good job, but the static between the plastic container and the grinds is frustrating and can get messy. I would recommend looking at a grinder with a glass container if you can afford it. Otherwise, this is a great product."
90143,2,Great item,I bought for my brother in law 2 christmas ago. Its still in perfect condition and used daily. Would highly recommend.
90192,2,"grace, guts, and moral ambivalence","This is an unusual book, similar to The Adversary, also an account of a man murdering his family in France. In this book, the group of women bonded by their handicapped chldren are heroines to be sure; they should be the primary subject. My problem is with the moral ambivalence of so many people, nearly all we meet but the women's group and one young lawyer who eventually got Bob Rowe disbarred. Rowe murdered his family, was aquitted by reason of insanity, but went on to live a full if troubled life. He himself saw no reason why he should not be allowed to again practice law and many friends, old and new, spoke out in his behalf. The man was a cold-blooded murderer, no matter how depressed and stressed he was. That there are people who can forgive this heinous a crime is a mystery to me and is a dismal reminder of the moral relativism our society has come to embrace."
90236,2,YOUR HOUSES VALUE CAN TUMBLE????,"Over 69% of the USA now own houses, interest rate are unnaturally low, personal bankruptcies are at a record high, on average, every American has $16,000 in credit card debt...This book pinpoints one of the yet-to-pop bubbles in the housing market. While home values increase at 7% a year, property taxes increase 3%, it's a matter of time before the weight of affording a home exceeds most families ability to pay for it. This book is definitely an eye opener when it comes to what is happening. The book's message is not ""dont buy a house"" but one of understanding the current situation and make smart decisions while making an investment in a home. An Excellent Enlightening Read! - Mason Johnson, President, www.tomorrowsgold.com"
90351,2,title of review,"I found this album really hard to get into, but something kept me coming back to listen to it again and again. Only a couple of the songs have an immediately catchy hook, but the rest aren't failed attempts at catchyness, they're just a more relaxed expansive take on pop-rock songwriting that has a lot of depth. The musical progressions don't always go where you want or expect them to, but most of the time they're surprisingly satisfying. Similar to Foo Fighters and Sugar Ray, but superior to any albums either of those bands have made."
90476,2,wonderful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,My daughter absolutely loves this book and had to have it. Says it's her favorite book. She read this at school and wanted it for her own personal library.
90480,2,At Last Some Good Answers,"Have you ever asked some of life's most important questions and gotten explanations that really didn't make sense? Well, I have and that's why I love this book. This author doesn't just chew the fat about some classic philosophical topics. She offers you REAL answers. She has keen insight into the tools a person needs to really have peace of mind in this world.A person need not be of any particular faith to gain substantial understanding of how God has set things up both this world and in heaven. Anyone who reads this book with a sincere heart and an open mind will find some precious jewels here. For enhancing one's journey in life, I couldn't recommend any book more."
90484,2,Nora doesn't deserve less than four stars,"I agree with the rest of the reviewers about this novel. It hasn't got the spark of other Roberts novels like Honest Illusions and the born in ice trilogy. The romance starts way to deep in the book, at around the 200 page mark. I like the novels where the hero and heroine meet and sparks and passion fly from the first couple of chapters. The subplot is okay, and the plot itself is mediocre at best. Hope the next installment will be a lot better."
90496,2,boochiboy,"Wow!Some kind of a cross between Dance & New Age with a great attitude.The Critics say this & that about this CD......I am not really a Trance fan, but this CD works really well, with the beats used.Dance, Spiritual, Meditation??? Does that really work together?YES IT DOES!For me I hear the music style of Flock of Seagulls, Enigma, Tangerine Dream & Enya...but again, you can do some serious clubbing with a few of the tunes as well.I am very please with this CD..... I beleive you shall be too!"
90646,2,it's some cool music man,"this cd is awesome as said by the other people. They are awesome in concert, but i recommend yuou hear the cd before you go, not only does it allow you to enjoy the concert more, but the music is just hella better after you go!"
90756,2,Complete Calvin & Hobbes,THis is an amazing collection of all the Calvin and Hobbes comics ever written. It includes an introduction about the author and his works dating from 1985. My 25-year old son (a major fan) and I love the collection. Four volumes on very good quality paper. The four volumes in a sturdy case make it a challenge to lift.
90759,2,Calvin is one cool cat,For Calvin and Hobbes fans this is the ultimate collection... with a nicely written history by the artist... buy the collection... much cheaper than the various books found at the local bookstore...
90771,2,"4 non blondes--woulda, shoulda, coulda","This was possibly one of the best groups to play in the 90s. Unfortunately, they broke up before they produce their second album. If only they would magically appear on stage again, I'm sure that the world would accept them back in the spotlight of the music industry. Maybe we'll all be blessed that one day they will get back together again and grace our ears with their music."
90790,2,I like cinnamon,If you like cinnamon then it's a good choice. The cinnamon flavor is definitely the strongest part of the tea.
90859,2,One of the best cds ever,This is without one of the best cds i have ever owned. The music is phenomenal! I just can't say enough about it.
90875,2,BEST ALBUM IN AWHILE!,"ALTHOUGH TOUGH COMPITION MIGHT HAVE KEPT CHRISTINA'S ALBUM AT A LOWER SPOT ON THE CHARTS, HER REAL FANS ARE GOING OUT TO BUY IT ANYWAY! ITS RAW VIBE AND OPEN NATURE KEEPS FANS WANTING MORE. ALL I CAN SAY IS IT'S PROBABLY THE BEST ALBUM EVER RELEASED BY A POP PRINCESS. GO CHRISTINA!"
90956,2,Beautiful and Stunning,"This movie was not only thought provoking and visually stunning at times, but brought me back to my boarding school days. (I went to an all boys boarding school.) Some people call what young ""boys"" do together homo erotic, I just call it what it is, young boys being boys. That element pays itself out in this film. I found that refreshing and stimulating to watch."
90958,2,Brian's Hunt review by Mac,and i named it brians hunt review by macMDawg008: i liked this book because it had adventure and also mystery. The book had a good way to keep you reading because it won't clue you to what is going to happen next. I think this would be a good book to read for a teen. I did not give this book a 5 because at some parts it does get boring.
91048,2,"The author is very detail oriented, and explores all sides","The claim that not ONE British account of the genocide is present is ludicrous. The book has plenty of accounts from ALL sides. Take Page 119: Captain Harry Armstrong, ranking officer is being marched through the desert by a Turkish army unit when he comes across proof. People need to read this book before they make ludicrous claims about it."
91090,2,Excellent product for seat cushions too!,I purchased this item to keep my couch seat cushions in place and it worked better than I thought it would. I wish I had purchased it years ago to save the aggravation of the slipping seat cushions.
91135,2,THE CAR BY GARY PAUISON,IN THE STORY THE CAR BY GAREY PAUISEN HAD TO IEARN HOW TO BECOME A MECHANIC.GARY HAD IEARN HOW TO DRIVE STICK SHIFT GARY IEARNED HOW CHANGE PARTS .GARY HAD TO IEARN A IOT OF NEW THINGS. I WOUID RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO EVERYONE.
91206,2,An oldie but a goodie,A very engaging movie. Not for those wanting escapist entertainment. Similar to Catch 22 in its requirement to keep up with the play. The quality of the photography and the music score were great. Well worth the money if 1980 drama and suspense are your thing.
91249,2,Surprisingly Entertaining,"When I first heard ""Goodies"", I thought another mindless singer was coming on the music scene. Don't get me wrong, she's fine as hell, but I wasn't impressed sufficiently to even check for her album. After hearing her 2nd single, ""1, 2 Step"", which I must say I love, I was pleasantly surprised by the replay value of this album. Although it is mostly mindless modern R&B, it still is very enjoyable and can be played in the car, club, or wherever for a good time. Props to Ciara for dropping an entertaining bit of music and props to Jazze Pha for his consistently hot production. Good stuff."
91252,2,LISTENS EVERYDAY!!!,"I HAVE TO LAUGH AT SOME OF THE THINGS PEOPLE SAY...IN RESPONSE TO THE ALBUMS....IF YOU DON'T KNOW THIS WORLD IS OLD AND THERE ISN'T BUT SO MUCH YOU CAN SAY ON A SONG THESE DAYS...PEOPLE COME AND PEOPLE GO...WHITNEY HAD HER TIME, AND SO DID MARIAH. SO EVERY SO OFTEN SOMEONE HAS TO COME IN AND TAKE THEIR SPACE. CIARA IS ONE OF THEM. I THINK THE ALBUM IS NICE. AND FOR HER TO BE ONLY 18, WHAT DO YOU WANT HER TO SING ABOUT: BEN-GAY AND DENTURES?! COME ON NOW! I THINK THE ALBUM IS NICE! I LISTEN TO IT EVERYDAY..THE BEATS ARE INFECTIOUS...THERE ARE MAYBE LIKE 3 SONGS I THINK THE ALBUM COULD HAVE DONE WITHOUT: LOOKIN AT YOU, OTHER CHICKS AND GOODIES (REMIX) WHOEVER SAID JAZZE PHA COULDN'T RAP WAS RIGHT...BUT OTHER THAN THOSE THREE, THE ALBUM IS FIRE AND I AM SURE EVERYONE CAN RELATE TO AT LEAST ONE SONG UP HERE...MY 4 FAVORITE SONGS ARE""GOODIES""""PICK UP THE PHONE""""AND I""""THE TITLE"""
91385,2,And her little dog Mister Poo too!,"A little violin protegy comes to Sleepyside with her mean old aunt to perform as a guest artist with the symphony. (She's so spoiled, Bobby could take Brat Lessons from her.) Meanwhile, the Bob-Whites are putting together a collection of herbs and flowers from nearby Martin's Marsh, where pirate treasure is rumored to be hidden. A mysterious recluse lives at the edge of the marsh, and paths converge, as they are wont to do, the famous child violinist dogging Trixie and Honey's steps with a persistence that reminds one of the Schoolgirl Shamus herself.The author was clearly tiring by the end of the story, and what could have been a dramatic rescue is told almost in summary. But there is mystery and history to be discovered in this book, and its fast pace makes up for this undeveloped scene. It does make the reader aware of how pleasant normal life can be compared with the burdens of fame, especially for child performers."
91410,2,Highly recommended,I bought this for my husband who absolutely loved it. The books look beautiful with their hard covers- he was almost afraid to get oInto them to begin with. Once he started to get into the first book he couldn't put it down. He has been spending hours going through and every now and then he cracks up laughing at a funny that he shares with me. A great gift idea for any FarSide fan. Totally recommended!
91453,2,"I Love it ( But OK, I'm Biased)","I'd been out of the music scene since, oh, just a bit after most of the tracks here were recorded. But I still write, arrange and play and from time to time keep up with musical friends from 'back when.'One such conversation got me thinking about my days in the music scene and that in turn moved me to make a video of my group from those days and post it on YouTube ( [..] and then share the link on a musician's forum. Well the reaction was fantastic. ""That ought to be on Pebbles"" someone wrote. Pebbles? I'd never heard of it. So I did a Google and found this. And lo and behold what else do I find. My old group, The Abstracts, performing the very recording I used on my video is on this set. Disc 2, track 19. So yeah, I love it. But I have to admit... that makes me a little biased. ;-)~"
91527,2,An extensively researched historical study,"The Jews Of Kaifeng, China: History, Culture, And Religion by Ux Xin (Nanjing University) examines the indigenous Jewish community that lived in the city of Kaifeng in northeastern China. Far removed from the rest of the world, the Kaifeng Jews gradually adopted Chinese customs into their traditional way of life, and intermarried with the non-Jewish populace, so that eventually their descendants were almost completely assimilated. A truly fascinating and extensively researched historical study, The Jews Of Kaifeng is a unique and very welcome contribution to Judaic Studies reference shelves and supplemental reading lists."
91705,2,VALUABLE MOVIE FOR COLLECTION,"Just don't read the negative reviews. After the passing of Michael Jackson, this movie has become a golden piece fro collectors & fans...We get to se MJ act and show us his true love and appreciation of art, acting, and singing. All characters are just awesome...Love the metaphors"
91709,2,Only book like it,Only book I could find summarizing the research on praying mantids. I just wish the authors would publish a more recent edition!
91742,2,"With all this controversy, no one can deny the truth.","Ah, the figure skating and gymnastics world are certainly up in arms, and well they should be. I was a figure skater for 14 years and even after I left the sport I still had nightmares. Ryan's book established all the sick coaching methods, name calling and punishments as ""celebrated child abuse"" and that is exactly what it is. With all the controversy surrounding this book, one must realize just how very profound the problems are. This book is hopefully the first step in many against the currently sick worlds of gymnastics and figure skating. They may look pretty, and tiny but at ages 21 and 22, prepubescent bodies are not healthy, and neither are these sports. Figure Skating fans beware, this book is not for the weak of heart. It is a rare truthful glimpse inside the very dark part of those beautiful superskaters. I recommend it to anyone who is not currently brainwashed by sport."
91849,2,"Great resource, in good shape, just a bit out of date","The book showed up earlier than projected and was in very good shape. I failed to notice how old it was, yet I got a real bargain. Still extremely useful reference. I use it constantly."
91894,2,Lord Of The Rings Rules!!!!!,"Lord Of The Rings 1+2 were the best movies + games I've ever seen/played. After seeing the game preview I knew I needed this game. If you liked the Two Towers then you're sure to love this one. I also know the Hobbit is coming out, but I don't recomend it [it looks childish]. If you're a Lord of the Rings fan or not you're sure to love this game.Special features include- More characters then the last game- 1 or more players- Harder, more challenging levels- More levels and bosses"
91911,2,As Good as Dead,"Very well written.....From the first page until the last, the Author keeps you wanting to turn the next page. I've now read several of her books and find that each one seems better than the last..I will continue to look forward to the next....."
91930,2,Pat back at her best,"I'm kicking myself I hadn't bought this album sooner. As many singers get older their voice deteriorates. Not Pat Benatar, if anything she's gained more control and the song Papa's roses demonstrates what a superb voice she has. Songs like Angry are on par with big hits like Invincible. Definitly a better album than Gravity's Rainbow and the more recent Go."
92021,2,weebooma,"My husband and I also attended this concert and had excellent seats as well. I can't say enough about the wonderful acoustics in this theatre, but most of all, these two living legends put on a show that was outstanding. I am so thrilled to be able to buy this DVD. If you are a fan, this is a must have. Enjoy!"
92062,2,"Best firewire card for audio, hands down","Simply put, several different makers of firewire interfaces recommend THIS firewire card to put in your computer if you want unflinching reliability. Just goes to show, you have to go beyond what's on the shelf at a local store to get something specific like this for the PC Home Recording Studio market that computer accessory stores flat out ignore. If you can wait for this to come in the mail, it's a no-brainer."
92125,2,Quartz's classic NWoBHM masterpiece,"Stand Up And Fight was an incredible album that many people believe to be the finest NWoBHM album made. The music still has the Sabbath crunch that Quartz lovingly duplicated, however Quartz always had their own sound. The title track is nice way to start the action, ""Revenge"" is a very heavy track with a great riff, ""Charlie Snow"" is great too. This was the last Quartz album with the original line up. 1983's Against All Odds is still out of print, but it is my fave by Quartz."
92134,2,Nice item :),"Nice item, I'm a first time metronome owner, and it's very easy to use and user friendly. Nice little unit for the price."
92227,2,This cooler does the job,"I've used this cooler on a 7-day sailing kayak-camping trip along coastal everglades here in S Florida. I'm always careful to keep any cooler in the shade as much as possible, and I open it as little as possible. The cooler still had ice (in 2-l bottles) remaining at the end of the trip. It was never 90 deg, but I was satisfied with the cooler. I gave it 4-stars because you could always ask for more.The person who complained about the drink holders being cold ought to stick foam in those openings if they are not going to use them. Others might love a cooled drink holder for a coke at 90 deg."
92257,2,Just the right size,Looked all over for a small pan and found this one. Just right size only wish in was teflon coasted.
92274,2,Nashville Native - Hag Box Set Is Worth Every Penny,"From a Nashville native who is also a regular honky tonk goer and traditional country music lover, I can assure you this box set is worth every penny. When it comes to true country music, it doesn't get much better or more real than Merle Haggard. This boxed set has classic Hag tunes that you can't get on itunes (if you're an itunes user as I am) but are must-haves for your digital collection. From the early days of his career to the bar room honky tonk songs we all know and love, this boxed set offers a journey through one of the most influential singer/songwriters of our time. Buy it, enjoy it and sing along."
92275,2,any thing Merel Haggard has ever recorded rates 5 stars.,Merel is one of the best country singers in the world.... He has paved a long hard road and should be treasured. He has gave us some great music to listen to and play to our childern. Most kids today if you ask them dont even know who he is. If you ask one of my kids they tell you who he is and what song they like best. He's next to God almost. I dont think Merel could ever know how much he is loved by all.
92276,2,Nice Sandal.Good Price.,"Nice sandal at a fairly decent price.Wait till they go on sale if you can as the price seems to fluctuate.Also,buy a 1/2 size bigger too as they seem to run a little smaller than usual."
92336,2,Great Values and Lot of Fun,"Excellent values. It may not be perfect in that (as commented on below) it suggests that God's Love ""guarentees"" our safety (in a sense His love does guarentee our safety though!) However, compared to other children's videos I give it 5 stars hands down!!!!! It promotes Godly values and I personally find it entertaining as well!!"
92373,2,"Good mat, make sure you get some support under it though","I basically use the mat for practicing MMA on. Grappling, take downs, sparring. Seems to be really sturdy, the velcro edges hold the two mats I own together really nicely. The area I use these in is a converted garage, with a concrete floor. I would highly recommend that anyone who has a hard surface like concrete either build a floating floor, or use eggshell foam or something similar as an extra layer. The mats do a good job of absorbing energy, but I think on top of bare concrete is a little too much to ask, as it still makes for some hard landings.For the record, I had some acoustic eggshell foam (2"" foam) that when laid underneath the mats made an excellent support. With the two stacked on one another I can take a fall and not be phased in the slightest."
92428,2,Easier to use,"I like this blowdryer, I've never been good at the whole styling thing using multiple hands and I have really thick hair. THis dried it fast, I still have to use a straight iron, but this is a great start to a nice blow dry. A bit expensive and I can't really get my hand comfortable yet. I do like how the head will rotate into which ever direction I choose. I would reccomend it if you have the money to spend on a nice blowdryer."
92555,2,"This isn't rock, and this is one of the most beautiful albums i've ever purchased","I purchased this at Tower Records the day i heard it. This is not rock, it's more downtempo/ambient/acid jazz type music. It's honestly one of the most relaxing cd's i've ever listened too. My favorite tracks are, your breathe is mine, moonless, burgandy, and Incandescent."
92558,2,"Holds securely, works perfectly","I have the Magellan Meridian Platinum. The mount holds it securely. It comes with a rubber strip that provides some shock absorption. It has a nice crisp snap in and quick release for the GPS. I have over 100 miles riding with it on roads, bumpy bike trails and some off road. The mount has held solidly to the bike and held the GPS securely. Reception has been perefect. The mount does not interfere with operation.Main complain it the mount is done with long screws. Wish it had some quicker way to change to another bike. Might not be a good way to do it, but I still want it rather then spend another $25."
92614,2,Works well for Audio/USB,I am using it only as Audio/USB switch and it works well for this purpose (I switch video directly via monitor inputs).Note that USB HAS to be connected to computers for the switch to work as it doesn't have it's own power supply and needs to be powered. If you were hoping to use it for Audio only (as I was) you still need to connect USB.
92620,2,Vintage Hank Thompson,"This is a really great CD for those who appreciate the old timey country-western.............it is primarily swing and toe-tappin! If you enjoy Hank Williams, you will love this CD. I highly recommend it! I am very pleased with the CD....the fast service and the continued excellence of Amazon....................."
92623,2,Nice generic carrying case,"I needed a soft case to store my Magellan Color in. Although this gps is no longer made, the case is perfect and can be used for any of the newer editions of Magellon products."
92701,2,Awesome!,"Verification of ""right thinking"" ! You are (become) what you think , the universal law of ""what you focus on increases"" will guide to what you will become."
92712,2,Good deal for blu-ray,"Couldn't find Hill have eyes at ANY store. For the price of one, you get both. I really only wanted the number 1 but to get both on blu- ray, GREAT!"
92714,2,SATAN IS REAL,"This is country gospel, pure and redolent as the ever blossoming banks of the mighty river of Jordan. Ira and Charlie Louvin tender God's word in nervous but beautiful aching harmony, like two falling angels pleading to rise. Their songs are sermons to themselves and fellow sinners reprimanding all unchaste impulse and the knowing twitch of an unwholesome eye. Highly recommended to brothers and sisters intrested in redemption."
92722,2,Drama That Keeps You Wondering About Character,"I LOVED this movie and could not find it for years--thought it was called ""The Razor's Edge"" (but that was a Bill Murray movie made around the same time).This is exciting and it seemed realistic in the grisly parts and the scenery. It was thought-provoking and it made me really wonder if Glenn Close was falling in love with a murderer or if he was truly innocent and earnest, like she hopes.It helped me realize that others struggle with judging a person early on in seemingly dynamic, relationships and I thought Glenn Close and Jeff Bridges played their attraction well, with lots of electricity & sparks they tried to deny, between them.Glenn looks particularly feminine and beautiful in this role and Jeff Bridges looks sexy and handsome and I liked the horseback scene a lot. I LOVE this movie. Close plays drama well and Bridges is also GREAT in these character-flawed angst, roles: ""The Vanishing,"" and ""The Fabulous Baker Boys."""
92738,2,Suggestions and Great reviews!!!,"The leap Pad and its books have been wonderful for my children. I do have a few ideas for improvements like putting all the leap pad books into a holder like what the ""Smart guides"" are sold in and also that the books need to be more durable (like wipeable pages and more durable pages for the preschoolers). Also there needs to be more of the characters that the preschoolers like ( dora the explorer, blues clues, mickey, monsters Inc, sesame street, george shrinks, bearstrain bears, dragon tales, more bible stories, etc)."

92869,2,Excellent Excellent and most Excellent,"Upon dropping in to review all books that were/are important to me, I noticed that ""Nine Stories"" only has 4 and 1/2 stars. Hmmmmmmmm. totally illogical. This collection is genius and flawed perfection. Of course my favorite story is ""Perfect Day for Bananafish"" because of the total bullets of details...and I adore ""Uncle Wiggley in Connecticut""(I read Uncle Wiggley books as a child)... and I always quote ""how that name mixes memory and desire"" from ""To Esme With Love and Squalor"". I shouldn't even be tooo effusive or even care if people read this book. It is a rare and beautiful work, and I wouldn't want to see it on Oprah's must reads. If you, gentle reader, are at all interested in life and loss of intangibles, you you may read."
92921,2,coolest t,This toy is a fantastic toy for kids you can scan your bit chip and find out info on spicial moves and you can chang the gearing(like on a bike)and you can also check your 3 highest rip scors.
92947,2,Great Watch!,This watch has a high quality look and feel. Keeps great time. It exceeded my expectations.
92982,2,just for me,I absolutely love it! I am pleased with the purchase. REO is a stellar band who knows how to rock.
93104,2,Nice Functionality,I have 2 of these car seats for my daughter for our 2 cars and have been using them for almost 4 years and it's so easy to put my child in and out of this car seat. It is also very sturdy.
93136,2,The ultimate version of one of the greatest albums of all time,"The immersion box set is amazing. The remastered disc of the studio album, the live concert from Wembley, the books of photos and other memorabilia: all are excellent. But one of the main reasons I bought it was to get disc 6, with an early studio mix of the whole album, a song from the unfinished Household Objects album, and early live and studio versions of On the Run, Us and Them and The Great Gig in the Sky (but with different titles). You can listen to the evolution of these songs over time before the final album versions were recorded. This box set is something I had dreamed about years before I even heard rumors that such a box set was going to be released. Now I just hope that immersion box sets are made of their other albums, such as Meddle and Animals."
93150,2,the greatest album ever made,the dark side of the moon was one of the most succesful albums ever made along with hotel california and should be there in your collection along with the wall.very highly recommended.
93178,2,A must-have for students of Gettysburg!,"This is one of the most-overlooked treasures of the vast literature on the campaign and battle of Gettysburg. It details the march of the Army of Northern Virginia (with special emphasison Richard Ewell's Second Corps) into southern Pennsylvania. The details of the invasion and the interactions with the peopleof Pennsylvania are endlessly fascinating. The book ends with the Second Corps marching to the sound of the guns at Gettysburg on 1 July 1863, so it is not an account of the battle itself.It is an unparalleled work setting the stage, however. Buy andread and ENJOY THIS BOOK!"
93294,2,Worth the entrance price for Buddha of Compassion...,I find this disc just a wee bit patchy compared to previous outings. However the 10 minute opus - Buddha of Compassion - ranks in my top 10 best ever tracks. It really is a sublime piece of music and almost has a transformative effect on me. Its one of those tracks that you never want to end.
93315,2,Tasty!,"These guys rock! This CD, as good as it is, isn't thier best. ""Soon to Sound What Where"" has their best songs. Do yourself a favor and go see these guys live! They leave it all on the stage. They rock hard, and lay down infectious grooves that will satisfy a large spectrum of musical tastes."
93359,2,A Greek's Promise,"It's a very romantic story about a Greek man, his name is Christos, who promised himself when he saw Alyssa that he will make her his wife, after 10 years he fulfill that promise and they fall in love :)"
93364,2,"Heroic, totally engsrossing","One of the great history sagas that I have ever read, and I have read alot of them. Ambrose is even better than my other favorite, Barbara Tuchman, about telling it how it is in the American history trenches. Without this great book the American public would have writen off one of the magnificent capitalistic, engineering, heroic mass labor miracles of the 19th Century. It's hard to believe what was accomplished even when one reads it. Wow!"
93367,2,"Not a review, just a quick note-","Having read 6 different books on the building of the transcontinental railroad, and also a few other sources on the same topic, this volume would be my easy choice for a factual yet entertaining popular presentation; and as a bonus it is NOT politically correct either (for instance on the subject of the Native Americans vs. the railroad)."
93495,2,World Trade Center - Truly Amazing,I live in the Midwest (have never visited NY) but saw a review of this book on a website. I just had to have it so I ordered the book from Amazon.com. I received the book late yesterday afternoon. The pictures and information contained in the book are truly amazing. It is amazing to see what Lower Manhattan looked like before the WTC was built. The pictures of the various models of WTC that were built. There are pictures of the construction of the twin towers. The book has some very nice posters of the WTC and New York skyline. There are many pictures taken on September 11th and in the days following. This book is a must-have for those who are interested in the World Trade Center. It's truly a remarkable book.

93520,2,Highlife is short but sweet!,"This DVD does everything right, the sound and video feed are perfect. Great song selection. Steve still has an aswesome voice, he hits all high notes still. His guitar playing is very enjoyable. the only thing I can fault This DVD for is it's short length, just about half of the concert is here. I watched on PBS, before I bought this dvd, and the song list was about twice as long as this. I really wish they would have included the whole show, it's not like DVD'S don't have the capacity. So minus 1 star for trimming it too much."
93537,2,Leap Year - would love more like this!,"One of our favorite ""chick flicks"". Fun movie - wish I had a ""Louie"" to go to Ireland with. Never tire of this movie."
93615,2,Great Collection,Excellent collection of the old train songs and the people that produced them. Got to me on time and the condition was just as described.
93624,2,Used but like new!,my daughter is using this book for her college class and she says it's like new; she loves it. Thank You Amazon.
93627,2,Plymptoons A Review,"I really liked the celebrity interviews in this documentary. Well worth time spent watching the movie. Features Interesting and views on Bill Plympton, including a joke about people confusing the sound of his name with Bill Clinton. A must watch for animation fans."
93661,2,Marpac Dohm - DS Dual Spped Sound Conditioner,My wife and I use this product to shut out sound from barking dogs and rude neighbors. Works great.We would definitely purchase again.
93825,2,Great Movie,This movie is great for the whole family. Probably not as good as Finding Nemo but still none the less a great movie. I would recommend this movie as it has great characters and a good story.
93833,2,A hot blooded read!,This story was an exciting read. The character development and plausible storyline kept me going. The Urban Griot has established himself as the next Donald Goings in the hardcore fiction.
93851,2,It is hard to believe this is a first novel...,"The richness of the characters, and the compelling stories evolving around Johnnie Mae, as she grows up in a sweltering black neighborhood. Just a few blocks away, in feeling the injustice as the ""white"" kids swim in a pool ""for whites only"" and after a terrible tragedy, Johnnie Mae comes into her own, and her determination changes her life. This story is not JUST ABOUT racism; it's what we think of ourselves, regardless of our place in society, and what we do, to be the best we can be. I loved this book. I hope to read more of Breena Clarke. I hope someday, I can ""make-a-positive difference"" in a childs life."
93860,2,Not for Windows ME,"This is a great little printer, but be forewarned. If you want to use it with a PC, there are two discs that come with it. One is labeled Vista, the other 98, ME, 2000, XP. I have an ME PC. When I tried to load the ME disc, it said it REQUIRES XP. So, if you want to use it directly with a camera (the memory card from the camera), you're OK. But if you need your PC and it has 98 or ME, forget it!"
93881,2,Pathfinder: How to Choose or Change Your Career for a Lifetime of Satisfaction and Success,"Yeah, I know it took a little while before I wrote my review, but here it goes. Product was shipped quickly. Item was as described, except for the musty smell. I would not have ordered it had that been stated in the description. I was trying to get the best price and a little wear was not a problem, I just wished it had been disclosed. Other than that, the price was great and the ship time was great, would consider this company again."
93924,2,Charming fables with gorgeous illustrations.,"Animals and plants from a Hawaiian garden teach morals (i.e. appreciate differences, vanity is harmful, sharing is good for your soul). Beautiful full-page illustrations of lush gardens. Note section includes scientific information about the plants and animals. An attractive art book that uses humor and poetry to teach lessons for living. Adults and children will enjoy this book!"
93928,2,"Humor, Wit, Song and Dance-- a Broadway Hit!","This updated version of the old movie took nothing away from the classic, and was a wonderful production. I don't think I stopped laughing the entire show, and whether you've seen it or not, the music is wonderful. Songs include lyrics dealign with everything from ""P. Daddy or Puff Diddy"" to falling head over heels in love."
93933,2,Excellent service,"It was delivered in excellent conditions, I stongly recommend them, I was worried of the deliver time because I nedded for my boy's birthday but it arrived exactly on the time they agree."
93943,2,mmmmm.... (eyes closed),"Aebi's vocal style is as original and nuanced as Lacy's reed. 2 rare birds of the same exquisite feather, I can't believe how beautifully they compliment eachother - back in the 70s when they first started working together it sounded amazing (or was it the 60s?) and now on this recent recording it's like a fine wine aged to perfection... just melts in your ears with an aftertaste like heaven."
93970,2,Pirates of the Caribbean - At World's End,"Pirates of the Caribbean - At World's End (Widescreen Edition)While the movie is quite long and the plot quite convoluted with twists and turns, this is an entertaining movie. There are elements that I don't think are good for children to watch, ie, some of the characters' special makeup and effects are quite scary. Also, Johnny Depp's character was just too strange in some scenes."
94071,2,Best ever,This album is the best ever in my opinion. Wonderful to sing along to in the car...All my Beatle Albums are played over and over again....
94133,2,Chinese Chicken Soup Bowl,"I do love almost all of Annie Chun's products and this one is no exception. I did find the chicken broth to be a bit weak for my taste, so I added a couple of shakes of Maggi Chicken Bouillon granules. This made for a stronger chicken broth and I liked it so much more."
94146,2,Everything is not for everybody this book is defiantly for me,"I purchased this book just this week and I can't put it down finally after spending lots and lots of money on diet books only to be disappointed I finally got the book with some answers about stress and fatthis book explains so thoroughly and accurately the ""whys and how's"" of my body and why I was holding on to the weight. This book is great!! don't wait until you are 40 buy it now you won't be sorry"
94163,2,Very nice,This is a very nice storage case and I would recommend this product. It is well made and light weight. Holds plenty of rings and is perfect for my needs.
94165,2,"Decent for what it is, but be aware of PS/2 plug size","The keyboard works fine, and it's not as mushy as most keyboards in this price range. Don't expect the same feel as buckling springs, though. My primary concern is that the PS/2 plug is greatly enlarged for no reason around the middle, making it connect to my KVM switch at an angle pushing against the VGA connector, and I imagine it would not work at all on some motherboards if it were close to other connectors in use. The white paint lettering on the keys reminds me of keyboards from 25 years ago, but how that reflects its durability I can't comment yet. Also be aware it uses the small backspace and L shaped enter key style, which may or may not be to your liking. It's unfortunate so few PS/2 models are still being produced to choose from."
94201,2,Freedom Frustrated,"Isabel Archer, James' best known heroine is also perhaps his most frustrating. ""Taken up"" by a self-centered aunt, she is brought to Europe to see what she makes of it and herself. Just barely disentangling herself from her American suitor, Caspar Goodwood, the men she encounters, Ralph Touchett, Lord Warburton and Gilbert Osmond all offer various possibilities. An uncle's bequest proves to be more hindrance than help and unfortunately she makes the worse possible choice.POAL is a wonderful, if infuriating study of one's potential being frustrated. Indeed, it wonders whether that thing we call ""possibilities"" even actually exist, or are they always elusive, and illusionary. Larger question such as freedom, duty, and responsibility are all turned over (sometimes again and again and again). It is a striking achievement, however, a 21st century reader one may find Isabel Archer's adherence to duty a vice rather than a virtue. I certainly did."
94211,2,Movie not as good as the book!,Unfortunately I had seen the movie first- big mistake! A lot was left out and I found out so many more things when I had read the book. The book was awesome! The movie was just ok compared to the book... Still a great movie though! I recommend it.
94253,2,Be patient to get it through,"Good guide to the communication research, and easy to follow.But takes lots of time to fully understand some contents.As a compiliation of diverse theories, the book requires you to make your own notes for consistency.If you study communication of any sorts, it will be a great help to you. But just read it through once and hop onto another book related to the specific topic you have to dig in."
94348,2,An invaluable resource for anyone with struggling students!,"Not only have I read and used the strategies suggested in this book, my classroom research is reported in it. What makes this information so invaluable is that it is immediately useable. Any teacher or parent with a struggling student can work with that student to capitalize on strenghts and take the anxiety out of the writing process. Students will quickly realize feelings of success and accomplishment. The case studies presented clarify the concepts and demonstrate their effectiveness. Teachers across grade levels and subject areas will be sorry they haven't been utilizing writing strategy instruction all along!"
94394,2,See the video,"If you have seen this in TV then you have not seen this movie...you have to see the uncut version to appreciate it. I remember this movie from my youth and recently watched it again and I still love it as an adult. Kristi, Tatum and Matt all seem so young and raw..."
94447,2,"Fun, quick and makes you feel better about yourself...","Kennedy's book is an incredibly fast and almost always enjoyable look at growing up X. He is so amusing as he relates the tales of his life. He makes a million mistakes, but can manage to laugh. He seems to have turned out ok. Another in a long line of memoirs from Gen X's, this one is almost up there with Paul Feig's and Dan Zevin (the Day I turned Uncool). The stories are light and will make you feel better about yourself, not matter how sad your life seems."
94500,2,Top 5 Move Ever,Avatar is a ground breaking movie that simple crys out for more. You will forget what's CGI vers live acting. The story is better than the special effects which is why Avatar is one my all time top 5 movies.
94503,2,great book,"Held my interest throughout...will look for more Bartlett mysterious., especially Resnick..anyone who likes mysteries will like this one . Try it!@"
94508,2,Murder on the Mind,"I truly enjoyed the book, it was not too long nor too short. It kept my interest and I wanted to know what the what in the world could happen next, and I wasn't disappointed."
94528,2,They Came to Cordura,"This film is set in 1916 Mexico during General Pershing's Punitive Expedition to capture Poncho Villa. Gary Cooper plays Maj. Thomas Thorn, an Army officer accused of cowardice, sent to observe and deliver five men (Van Heflin, Tab Hunter, Richard Conte, Michael Callan and Dick York) for consideration to receive the Congressional Medal of Honor. Rita Hayworth is an American accused of giving aid and comfort to the enemy. The film is rather tedious as it ever so slowly tries to discern the meaning of courage. Its greatest assets are the beautiful color cinematography by Burnett Guffey and an underrated and powerful performance by Van Heflin. I have never seen Heflin better, as he remains a constant thorn in the side of Cooper. Heflin plays one of the crudest and potentially violent characters I have ever seen. He physically looks the part and plays it with incredibly subdued menace. The film was directed by Robert Rossen and co-written by Rossen and Ivan Moffat."
94534,2,For wannabes and cybergurus alike,"Light and humorous description of the computer underground. Totally the book to get if you are not so serious about hacking and cracking, but are mystified by this offbeat cyberculture. Hell, this book is also cool for a Master CyberPunk, so to bolster the stereotype. Learn how the typical cyberpunk dresses, what gadgets they buy, what terms they use, and even what food good lil cyberpunks like to eat. Piercings and extreme hairdos optional."
94653,2,Inspirational,"The perfect read for someone in need of guidance, self-exploration and inspiration. Destiny will take hold of your heart and soul. A book that will change your life forever."
94662,2,Absolute favorite book of all time!,"This book is my all-time favorite. I have read it more times than I can count and it never loses its charm. There have been times when I have finished reading the last page only to turn to the beginning and immediately start reading it all over again.I would recommend this book to people of all ages and backgrounds. This beautifully written simple tale is inspiring and uplifting in a subtle, refreshing way. If you are the type of person who believes in fate, following your heart or that everything happens for a reason, you will absolutely love this book!"
94751,2,Be prepared to be amazed,"I have been listening to Enya since I was 13 and I have to say she has never let me down. I am so impressed with her new recordings. Lazy Days and Wild Child and One by One, are the best in my eyes. I have listened to this CD a million times already and will be buying the CD for many of my friends this holiday. I am sure they will love it! She has retained some of her ""sounds"" from Memory of Trees. But that does not hinder her new songs. You will surely enjoy it. I still get goose bumps when I listen to her music."
94755,2,Well deserve Grammy Award,"One of Enya's best work. This CD is incredible beautiful. I received it as a Christmas gift and loved it. Even my 10 year old daughter loves it. Go buy the CD, you will not regret it."
94818,2,Great read if you love Batman,"Good story start to finish, with a very gripping and intense cast of characters. Batman no man's land is a wonderful read for anybody interested not only in batman but also just for a good book to read."
94835,2,An underrated artist strikes again.,"John Hiatt has never received the respect he deserves. This is an album that does him justice. The title track and Pirate Radio are two very good songs. While this album doesn't rank up there with his Perfectly Good Guitar album, it is still good and will not disappoint new or old fans. Keep on rocking John!"
94923,2,"Sturdy, fun, low-impact walking","Have owned this machine for a couple of years and it has held up perfectly. Surprisingly sturdy and comfortable for the price. In addition to its cardio purpose, the smooth, low-impact motion is kind to sensitive knees, great for loosening up achy lower back and hips, and helpful for stretching. Have owned other exercise equipment but this is the one I actually use because it's more fun. Note: Although it folds for long-term storage, it's way too awkward for moving on a daily basis, so it really needs a place of its own."
94942,2,Pretty special...,"I'm presently working my way through PA school, and this book has a ring to it I can't seem to keep out of my ears. Each new situation or patient I'm with brings back the words Selzer uses to present his stories. I'd strongly recommend it as a gift to those in MD or PA school--besides being outstanding writing, its fun to see the many ways medicine has changed, coupled with the countless ways it remains the same. Read especially ""A Pint of Blood""...no matter how many times I read it, it still has me laughing."
94988,2,Exactly as Expected,"Was exactly as expected. Very cute and gave my brother and I a good laugh when we were reminiscing about the Gremlins movie. I bought one for him and one for my 4 year old daughter. Both thought it was fun. Definitely more of a novelty toy than a play toy. We played with it for a bit, but now it's on a shelf for the novelty side. Shipping was incredibly quick and I have zero complaints about the order or product."
95074,2,Really Good!!!,"This is really good!! The dance beat and techno rythyms are addictive. The video is also very good, showing a grown up Kelly looking very pretty and professional. I wish MTV would show more of this and less rap videos. How many times can we see 50 cent? Go out and buy or download this one. The Chris Cox remix is awesome. I'm a big Depeche Mode and Erasure fan from the ""old days"" and Kelly finally found a genre she can excel at. Way to go!!! Her fans should be proud and hopefully she'll find lots of new ones!!"
95076,2,Great multimedia keyboard,"We got this keyboard to serve as the main control for the computer we have connected to our TV. It works great. Signal strength is strong, even across a large living room, and key placement is handy. The only problem that we have had is that the battery door won't close after batteries were installed (doesn't fit). We just pulled out duct tape and have had no residual problems (until we need to change batteries, I guess)."
95079,2,Mostly Great - Mostly New,"Don't misunderstand me -- this Clubbers Guide is beautifully mixed & balanced -- & a great way to sample a lot of the U.K. dance chart at once. Great cuts include the Schiller, X-Press 2, Agnelli & Nelson, & Rui da Silva selections. However, a number of tracks also appear in the Ministry of Sound Annual 2000 (Hatiras, Santos, etc.) and one (Junior Jack) was in last year's Clubber's Guide. While I am enjoying this compilation more than Cream Anthems 2001 (which seems to have more of a pop feel) the fact that some of the tracks have appeared in other MOS releases keeps me from giving it a top rating."
95528,2,Vital Information,"For anyone (like me) who needs to understand the recipient's view of kindness, this is a valuable book. It's easy to read and speaks directly to the daily dynamics of giving and receiving. Many anecdotes stick with me, such as the elderly bedridden lady who gave visitors small tasks to help them feel useful. I highlighted many places and the Kindle Fire makes it so easy to read special parts over and over."
95532,2,Purple Bowling Eater,I really love these shoes! They are super comfy and I get TONS of compliments about how cute and colorful they are! I wear these at the military base league and everyone gets a kick out of me wearing them! I love them!
95536,2,My favorite protein bar,"I haven't tried every one on the market, but this is the one I've landed on. It does not have peanuts in it (I'm allergic). It tastes pretty good. Wears your jaw out, since it's so chewy.The only issue I had was that the ones I ordered through Amazon felt grainy. The consistency was different than that of an individually bought one. The individual ones were better. But still, a quality bar whatever the graininess is!"
95554,2,One of the best modern rock CD's in a long while,"Recently the teenie boppers have been clogging up the airways, and it's nice to hear some good rock music. Blink 182 delivers. Though the CD is relatively short, I found myself listening to it just about everyday. This album has some great lyrics and is actually FUNNY. There are many songs of high-quality. If you like ""what's my age again,"" and ""all the small things,"" this CD will not disappoint."
95627,2,Oh Yeah!!,"I have a personal story. In the early 90`s I was turned on to this type by a friend at work. I had been only listening to Hip Hop and he would tell me the samples that some of the songs had used. Well to make a long story short, I began to like the original songs more than the Rap songs. Unfortunately, he didn`t write down the titles and names of the songs so I could`nt find out who made them. Years later when my two little boys were born, they proceeded to destroy those cherished tapes my friend had made for me. Finding these songs has been a slow and agonizing process. But with the help of ""CDnow"" I have begun to get back some of those songs. Some of them are located on the ""Best of Bobbi Humphrey"". This album is simply fantastic. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a pure jazz flutist with soul."
95642,2,"great movie,a female that is a fighter,yes","I loved the movie,it was suspenseful,and Jodie fosters best acting,in my oppinion,definately worth watching. it is rare to see a female that is strong in movies,and some people do not like that,but I love it."
95677,2,"E, ""You Rock My World""","One cannot fathom how E still puts his mind into songwriting due to the death of his mother and suicide of his sister. But he does, and this is the outcome. Huge hit singles ""Cancer For The Cure"" and ""Last Stop: This Town"" are reason enough to buy this album. The raw energy that dominated the debut might be missing, and the hooks not as immediate, but you won't forget this in a hurry."
95727,2,DISHWASHER RECOMMENDATION MISLEADING,"I had seen and used the soup spoons from this flatware set and liked the look and feel of this pattern. Even after much study and reading the cautionary reviews about rusting possibilities if washed in a dishwasher, I decided to order it. And, after it arrived and I read the ""fine print"" where the MANUFACTURER advised handwashing this flatware, I kept it because I like it and have committed to handwashing it. I don't think about it; I just do it because I wanted this flatware. It is too bad, though, that it hasn't been manufactured with the right combination of metals to allow satisfactory washing in the dishwasher."
95739,2,Auspicious Debut,"I bought this on cassette in 1994 while on a business trip to the U.K. I had never heard of the band before, and because of their name I thought they might be an English group! (I wasn't yet into C.S. Lewis enough to catch the reference.) Imagine my surprise to find they were not only from Texas, but one of the best-sounding, freshest Christian bands I had encountered up to that time. ""Fatherless"" is an exceptionally good starting point for a band that had a marvelous run, and knew how to quit when they were ahead. Recommended without reservation."
95820,2,the V.I.P. is back,yo i just have to say that the new vanilla is the bomb yo. he's kept it real all these years and he's back!!!!!!!
95909,2,Great Collection,"This album shows Grand Funk's diversity. From the early ""Heartbreaker"" with its screaming feedback guitar and constant cymbal crashes, to the very smooth sounding ""Closer to Home"", to the remake of ""Locomotion"" which makes you want to dance or maybe footstomp. Listen to the end of ""Closer to Home"" closely. You can hear Mark singing a wailing song over (or under) the I'm getting closer to my home repeats. It's great. Maybe a remix is in order."
96071,2,Question,"Do you really get ""three"" wolves ""and"" a moon? ...because that's just too much bargan power in one purchase to believe!"
96087,2,Americas Cup 1988,This is a first class record of the rogue challenge for the Americas Cup from New Zealand shortly after the cup was won by Stars and Stripes in Freemantle Australia. San Diego Yacht Club successfully defended the challenge in what has become one of the low points of this must sought after trophy. Good reading from front to back.
96104,2,Doesn't work and can't reach the company.,"""Santa"" gave this to our girls for Christmas. Both enjoy it and I think it will be a fun toy for them. The problem is we have been unable to get the ""trigger switch"" to work. It should count and play music etc. when they jump, but it does not. It seems the bungee is too tight and the switch is always engaged, so it doesn't do anything. I tried adjusting it for heavier or lighter children (my 3 year old is just over 30 lbs.), but nothing worked. I tried calling the number on the instructions, but that is disconnected, I tried checking their website, and it is not there. I'm hoping we can come up with some way to fix it since we aren't sending it back now that it is together. If anyone has any suggestions, please post a comment! As for putting it together, it did take two people, but was easy enough, thank goodness for college degrees. I gave it 4 stars overall because I do think our kids will have fun with it, even if we have to count for them!"
96131,2,Greatest hits - 1983 - 1991,"This collection features most of red Hot's important songs from their first 10 years of career.from raw debut stragight to ""under the bridge"" from bestseller ""blood sugar sex magic"".i cannot complain about this album - songs are great of course,tracklist is good too,in few words a great compilation of hteir earlier material.for beginner fans and for those who want to have rare ""Show me your soul"" from Pretty woman movie soundstrack.Get this one along with new ""Greatest hits""."
96134,2,This is his best book,"This book is MANY, MANY times better than the ""Sword of Shannara"". The characters of Wil and Amberle and their adventures were the thing that cause me to love this book even though i didn't like the first book of the series."
96143,2,Great product,"I needed an adapter for my stereo system, this works Great and I did not have to spend much at all!"
96177,2,Short Stories are Great,"These are some of the best short stories I've ever read. The overall story isn't that great, but it's worth it just for the short stories. Some of them are just so damn good I was just amazed. Some of my favorites are: Slumming, Swan Song, Exodus, Civil Twilight, Product Placement,and The Nightmare Box. Twisted, sick, funny, and just brilliant writing. Definitely recommended."
96181,2,"Engrossing, page turner","I liked this book. Chuck has his own style and he keeps it alive and kicking in this book. Once you get started in this book it moves along very well, the stories keep you glued,some shocking others thought provoking either way it's a good fun read. I didn't give it 5 stars because I didn't care for the Ending but if your a fan of Chuck like I am this is a must read."
96220,2,We Love Sinatra,"This CD presents some of his best recordings, when his voice was at its peak, singing some wonderful old songs with feeling. Most of them are not on other CD's or tapes that we own."
96241,2,"Preety watch, Great price",This is a pretty dress watch with a sturdy band that is attractive. I love mine. The white pearl face makes reading the time a breeze.
96253,2,Old questions are finally answered,"The Last Precint is the most recent installment in the Kay Scarpetta series. Even though this book is grouped with the others, it is quite different. It is written in the present tense which may be distracting until you get into the story. The Last Precinct shows Kay having to face old wounds and deal with new blows that are dealt. Kay has to question which friends she can trust and who may stab her in the back. Kay is given a much more human side in this novel instead of the tough no-nonsense chief medical examiner that we usually see. The Last Precinct will see some old questions answered and new questions develop. This is very much a pivotal novel in the series. I'm very interested to see what Patricia Cornwell dreams up for Kay after this novel."
96296,2,"Great taste, perfect for quick hunger pangs!","I use this after a gym workout, at that moment when my energy is waning and I am getting a blood sugar drop, before reaching food!!! It is the perfect taste and consistency. A Clif Bar is too much work and too filling for those times. I can't stand the gels. I have also used this before a workout, for a quick booster. I use it for outside sports, too, including swimming, skiing, runs, etc.I also let my 3-year old daughter have some when she is very hungry and for some reason food is delayed. She loves it and I always have to fight off demands for more! :)I usually get the Cran-Razz flavor. Note - the Black Cherry flavor contains caffeine, in case you are also passing it on to kids! I don't like the Strawberry flavor at all. Another one I recently tried is Mountain Berry.I can find it in some local stores, it's a hit or miss..."
96318,2,Great,"Works well with my 4G sansa clip. USB connector is a little loose, but does not seem to be a problem."
96334,2,refreshing,What a pleasure to read such grounded literature. The flavor of his characters have a nostalgic feel; as if you have known them in your past.
96404,2,This album is amazing,"I love this album with every part of my body. I've had it since I was about 10 (when it came out), but i never really appreciated it until a couple of years ago. The melodies are soulful, and the grooves are spectacular. If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would."
96409,2,"1ST CLASS BEATLES - great songs, o.k. compilation","As always, the Beatles' music is marvelous and this is an o.k. representation of their music - the thing is, the best of the Beatles is all of the Beatles! There's really no way to issue everyone's favorite Beatles song in a 2-disc set like this because there are so many great songs! This set, though, is a good way for collectors without bootlegs to acquire stereo mixes of some of these early tracks (including ""Please Please Me"" which has Paul and John singing a different line at the same time by accident, by the way). This is good, but don't stop your Beatles collection with this!"
96490,2,Wish I Could Give It Six,"First off, as mentioned by another reviewer this is not a ""summer reading"" book. I agree with that person's comment and don't know why it would be included on a list like that. If you want a piece of summer fluff to read on the beach put this book down immediately and buy something by Sophie Kinsella. That being said, this is a book that you MUST read. It is best read like a scroll and you have to be willing to take time with it and allow the scroll to tell the story by unrolling at its own pace. The ""Prologue"" is terrible - I will admit that I was harboring negative thoughts on the pages yet to come while slogging through it - but you will understand why at the end when you have a better handle on the character who wrote it. Altogether a mesmerizing story - one of the best I have read this year."
96534,2,Rudiments of Music,"This book will teach the practicing musician everything you they could possibly need to know about music theory and notation. As a beginner of music studies, I found it all a bit mind bending at first. My advice is to just hang in there and before you know it, the long words and scary looking notation sections will all make sense. I borrowed this book and am now trying to find a copy to purchase (that doesn't cost over $100 aus) as I know I shall be using it as a reference tool for many years to come. For the serious musician, it's a must have."
96566,2,Whooooo Hooooo,"It's about time there was a new book from Gabriella,This is a great adventure, I felt like I was there and I could see the forests and castles, as well as the tapestry wrapped around Elf and the (yeech) wool stuffed in her mouth and being tossed over a shoulder and taken into the night. I love the way she describes things but doesn't get so wordy that you get lost and can't find your way out with a dictionary and a thesaurus.A great read from the first page to the last and do I see a sequel in the future???????I love this one as much as the others. Elf's super spunk is great and Payne the rugged Knight is just the one to match her even though....opps almost gave that part away.This is a great book the setting and the characters that she has put together, Nigel the crotchety old friend of Payne, the pompous ass Coxesbury, the half brother who wants to make amends, The Uncle who could care less, The horses who obey their master.This is one you shouldn't miss"
96578,2,Another Son Volt masterpiece,"I grew up listening to country and got away from it as I got older. This band has brought me back to it in a huge way and introduced me to a bunch of other bands that I never knew existed 3 years ago. While Trace is still my favorite, and Straightaways was good, in spite of some less than enthusiastic reviews, this album reminds me of UT's Anodyne album. Jay Farrar is one of the best songwriters out there, in any musical genre. I saw them live for the first time in Somerville, MA about a week before the album came out. It was supposed to be an all acoustic show, but they were all plugged in during the second half of the show and they kicked ass! The thing that amazes me is that more people haven't heard of 'em around here. Do yourself a favor - Buy this CD!"
96592,2,My new Seiko,"This sport-style watch is a perfect combination of practicality, reliability,and good looks. The combo of stainless steel and l8 carat gold plate goes with most other jewelry. The face is easy to read, although the date window is a bit small."
96610,2,Methods Framework,"This book works very well as a support framework for practicioner: it comprises concepts of operations management avoiding to go into deep abstraction.The book is filled with practical examples that show the real life of given concepts. It can clearly help someone to structure work with real problems in operations management.People in charge for operations management are generally already fitted with tools and concepts that support decision-making. Complete coverage of the field is offered here, which gives broader view and help in any strategic decision. Some approaches are modernized in recent years, but everything given here is still valid as a basic reference."
96750,2,Great Trimmer,PERFECT. Received from vendor in great condition and works great! Very good quality. I thought I needed a new one since my old one runs hot but I probably just should have changed the blade. I would buy this again if necessary.
96796,2,Great Manual Stapler,"I first saw this stapler at the campus computer lab. It worked so smoothly that I wrote down the model number and found out where to buy one.After getting it...no regrets whatsoever.It easily staples 20+ pages using regular staples I had already, but claims to staple 25 with Swingline SF4 Premium Staples, which I have not tried."
96808,2,A great book,This ia a great book. Tom brown was taught wildernes skills by an old Apache named Grandfather. This book is his story. It is the first of many of Tom's books on his adventures with grandfather and his best friend Rick.I highly recomend this book and all of Tom's books.
97030,2,Love this toy!,"My son LOVES LOVES this toy. It's been sturdy despite his abuse and much use. The alligators can be noisy now that he can really zip around (if you're on the phone, it feels like you're in a factory), and my husband took a piece of rope and tied their mouths open--which is rather funny to look at. I highly recommend this toy!"
97036,2,What a great movie...,"This movie was just fantastic, hands down. Didn't expect much, but I was laughing through out the whole movie. Bill Nighy is great as quentin and not to mention philip seymour hoffman."
97077,2,A wonderful introduction to Broadway for small children!,"This is my 3 year old daughter's favorite CD. It has a great variety of songs from different shows. She loves to sing along, and will be able to identfy with the shows as she gets older. The kids are very talented, and most of the songs are easy to sing along with. Even I enjoy them (as a mom!). Its a welcome break from Barney and Sesame Street."
97129,2,Good projection clock,"The first clock that was shipped to me was defective, but Amazon quickly shipped me another working one. This new one works well - Just note that the projection is not visible during the daytime or when lights are on."
97158,2,if you like vampires and good gameing this is for you,well right of the bat i was expecting a good game and so far it hasnt diaponted me i was ahuge fan of the frist game and this one excedes it it in everway it combians a good frist person shooter with all the great features of a complex rpg it was very easy to learn how to play also the story is complex and intregeing this is defently not a game for kids i was worried that they game would not run well on my system like dues ex 2 but im running it at maxuim graphic settings and it runs vertual flasely on my computer it only has a few small sound glitches and a split second bog on the systems the only thing i can say i dont like about the game i there is almost a load screen for entering ever area but i can get over that its a freaking great game with ifentposablitys in story line i hope this game makes it to everyones shelfs want to see a 3rd release in the future
97174,2,Super Splitter,I struggled splitting pills with a sharp knife. No more! This little gizmo does a perfect job every time.
97178,2,Another triumph from Deaver,"I've come to expect great things from Deaver's many books and have rarely beendisappointed. Each time I thought, well, surely he cannot top this one! Wrong.Being a student of the period leading up to the Hitler era, I can only admirethe thoroughness and artistry with which Deaver develops his portrait of an almost hopelessly complex historical period. I can't think of anyone who has a better feel for the texture and tempo of this period of horror in Germany's history. Congrats once again to one of my favorite authors."
97212,2,A Great Second Album,Good...no great...pop punk from a working-class band from Jersey.They do to this genre what The Sopranos do to Waste Management.
97268,2,"A Litany of Loss, Love, and Hope","This book made hash of every stereotyped soldier-poet I have ever encountered in literature (sadly, I have encountered none in Life), and fools of everyone who ever believed in them. If the protagonist/narrator is based upon an actual person (as I suspect is the case, since the work reads more like a journal than a novel per se), then I envy him his experiences, however painful, for they have lent him a capacity to apprehend and percieve the beauty of this world and articulate it in a manner unlike anyone I have ever read who has set pen to paper. To say that I cried, that I felt sadness, that I was moved beyond words by the power of this account of horror, heroism, loyalty, friendship, and love, falls far short of the truth - and the truth is that The Spirit Horses is by far one of the most haunting, beautiful books in print. I applaud Mr. Kindrick's efforts, and look forward to seeing more of his work in years to come."
97292,2,Praise for the Plains of Passage,"I have enjoied all four of the Earth's Children Series, and while The Plains of Passage at times laged a bit, the characters I have come to love are at it again! Auel has done an excelent job of describing the scenes and creating intrigue..."
97294,2,Hooked on the past!,"I love Ms. Auel's books. I have read them and reread them several times. However, it has been 9 years since ""Plains of Passage"" was written. When are the next books being release? Are they being released? I certainly hope so. What happened to Jondalar and Ayla now that they are ""home."" Please tell me...now......!"
97326,2,Great DVD,I cant wait for Season II. You never know who is the bad guy! I love the suspense. I will definately recommend!
97341,2,DVD Life of Mammals vol 1-4 reviw,"Great DVD.Great fun to watch and learn about animals.Seeing many parts of the world.Can start and stop when I want.When I miss something, can replay to hear again or see again.To learn it is important to see and heard things to learn them.I enjoy watching over and over again."
97350,2,wonderful cards,"I love these cards. Beautiful pictures, nice sized card to make it easy to carry with you as a constant reminder of your daily affirmation."
97388,2,easy to use,"Very easy to use, ice cream possibilities are endless! Much easier than the old hand-crank ice cream makers! Requires a bit of planning (must freeze bowl for at least 15 hours prior to each batch of ice cream, then must freeze the ice cream for 4 hours after it's made so it becomes hard) but worth the effort in the end. Quality product."
97442,2,Beautiful works of art,This book has very beautiful cakes in it.It is definately not for a beginner or even an intermediate cake decorator.
97488,2,Cooking for pump-kin,"I Have the version that is imported from australia, but I think all the cooking for pump-kin tracks are all the same,just different covers. This cd isnt that great really but the tracks that are good are worth four stars."
97543,2,Bulky but it protects,"The other reviews are true, this case is a bit bulky, but it protects very well. This is my main case for traveling in the car and working out in the gym. I have a dropped this case several times, hard, on tile and without any noticable damage. I have not had a real problem reading the screen through the clear window, but I would recommend getting a product like invisibleSHIELD to also protect the screen. I like the kickstand feature when I am at work and it sits on my desk. Makes it easy to glance over and look at the screen. If you have a docking station, you probably won't need this particular feature.If you need a case for fashion, dont get this case. If you need a case to protect your investment, this case will do it superbly."
97571,2,kids love this toy,"the kids, all 6, got these for christmas a few years ago. they love them, i got addicted to them. if i would just buy the batteries they would still be playing with them. they have tons of accessories you can buy with them. i would recommend buying these, and buying some spare batteries."
97621,2,This story is one of the best I have ever read!!!,"This story is about a girl named Claire who moves with her widowed mother to Ravensmere, where she meets up with a boy named Mark and they go through some very different expierences, that I will leave you, the reader, to find out. She also finds out about her mothers past which she never knew about before. This story was absolutely fantastic, it has many twists and turns, and keeps you turning the pages. Liz Berry did a wonderful job writting the story as well."
97745,2,Beautiful Poetry!,"This book of wonderful poems is a real and interesting look directly into the life of the Puertoricanos of New York's Lower East Side. At once moving and disturbing, Algarin's poems use strong images to pull the reader directly into the action of his beautiful poems."
97796,2,Works just fine.,"We have had no issues with it working. We had to reload software a couple of times, which was annoying. The worst thing is the lock up it causes when you print, mine always trys to get me to buy ink and connect to the internet. I use a laptop that is not connected all the time so maybe that causes the issue. We would buy it again even with these problems. It is just nice to have the scan/fax feature."
97878,2,Always heard of Humble Pie but could never place a song.,"Always heard of Humble Pie, saw their album covers but never remembered any songs from them. So I thought I would try this album out. Some songs on this album drag a little in my opinion like the first track - Natural Born Boogie. However - 30 days in the hole, black coffee, hot and nasty, and the third track absolutely rip. As for the last track - I don't need no doctor - this is the best song on the album and an incredible cover of this song. Steve Marriott owns this track and his vocals are awesome. Worth the purchase."
97907,2,A glorious ride,"A brief history of UK canals, a briefer instruction on navigating our boat and then off we glide through the countryside at four MPH. Lots of scenery and a gentle patter both informative and humorous from our narrator. Spotlight visits to Chester, Edinburgh, Inverness, the Falkirk Wheel (a late 20th Century mechanical marvel) and the Wedgewood factory. A few interviews (just a word or two) along the way provide the human touch.I don't think that anyone could be disappointed with this purchase."
97963,2,Piggy bank wolverine,My 3yr old son loves this!! Looks just as it appears in picture! Great craftmanship & durable! Makes saving coins fun for him.
97967,2,Sticks wonderfully with suction cups - just call the company,"I was disappointed when the tape didn't hold up for longer than a week, but I simply called the customer service line and they sent me a suction-cup attachment for free, and it's been holding up just fine ever since -- it's been over a year now.My two year old son loves to put his toys away using the scoop, and it takes all of 30 seconds to do.Overall it's the best kind of kid's product: fun and functional."
97970,2,"A Must Read for men of any age, who have experienced their Dad dying.","My daughter bought this book for me while she was home for my father's funeral. It was such a good ""source"" to help me begin the journey of not having a ""living"" father. My mother had died 10 years earlier, but it is not the same experience. Since reading this book, I have purchased 4 more, for a brother, my 2 sons, and my late best-friend's son. Whether you are 60 like me, or 30's , it still helps. It is full of ""experiences"" shared by other men they interviewed."
97997,2,A monumental experiment,"This LP is a successful experiment in what electronic music can be. From minimal techno and breaks to tripped out r&b and soulful house, this LP delivers. Truly diverse and interesting. This album is the best thing Atkins has accomplished, in my opinion, and that's saying something as he is regarded as one of the most infuential techno artists of the 90's. One of the gem's of my music collection. Little known. Make it your own."
98081,2,Recommended,"Moebius and Jodorowsky make a perfect team. Jodorowsky had a clear vision of what he wanted to say in the Incal, and it keeps the narrative free from the numerous dead-ends and noodling story line that marred Moebius' visually brillant and highly imaginative but ultimately unsatisfying Airtight Garage."
98165,2,The Crime of Loyalty,"Walter Mosely's Devil in a Blue Dress strikes at the heart of racial inequality during the late 1940s. Easy Rawlins is an African American World War II veteran who has just returned from overseas. America, in showing its gratitude and loyalty towards Easy for fighting for liberty, slams the veteran in the face with unspoken color lines upon his return. Equality is still a myth in America, and Easy must continually battle the injustices of the white world for which he fought during the war. Because Easy has been fired from his job as a result of a racial power struggle, he must search for money through other avenues. An opportunity for seemingly easy money appears at the soldier's feet, and because he has a mortgage to pay, Easy accepts the job. What follows is a baffling, chaotic, deadly journey into the heart of the American psyche as well as the underworld of crime, loyalty, and necessary secrets."
98170,2,Almost like new and came on time,This movie is one of my favorite from the series. It explains alot about the X-men and has great graphics and acting. very pleased with this purchase :)
98171,2,One of the best !,X-men First Class is definitely one of the best summer movies this year. It is also tied with X2: X-men United for best X movie. Everything from script to casting is superb. Can't wait for the Blu-ray and the next installment in the franchise. I'm guessing it will take place in the 1970's and Nixon will be involved somehow.
98191,2,my favorite smb album,"this is the first steve miller band album i ever owned,and it is still my favorite 30+years down the road.most people are probably most familiar with ""living In The USA""from this album.a good song ,but not my favorite.the album opens with ""Song For Our Anscestors/Quicksilver Girl""the sound effects of the first and ""hippy""lyrics ""she's a quicksilver girl,lover of the world""etc.of the second might have sounded dated but some how they don't.other highlites iclude a cover of jimmy reeds'""You're So Fine"".My two favorite songs,however are two Boz Scaggs compositions,the Bo Diddley-esque ""Overdrive""and the full on kick a** rocker ""Dime-A-Dance Romance"".altogether a graet example of the San Francisco sound especially if you're not into 20 minute guitar jams that lose a lot if you were'nt there."
98208,2,Enlightenment made clear,Truth of Tao was an unbelievably easy read that clearly explained Taoism. I especially appreciated the comparative analysis to Buddhism. The last chapters on applying Taoist principles were practical and facinating to read. The description of taoist temples and gods was amazing.
98240,2,Wow!,This is a movie that you MUST see if you have not already watched it. The special effects are stellar and the entire movie is marvelous.
98245,2,Takes me back,"When I saw this was out there to rent I was so excited. I have been looking for this, for a long time. I used to love Mitch Gaylord. This took me back to seeing it at the movies. Acting is ok, and the soundtrac takes you back to the 80's. I do have to say being a female, this is a chick flick as people would say. But it is a good movie."
98294,2,Merry Christmas to me...,"I was, at first, slightly confused by Shawn's selection of songs until I happened upon a copy of Lullabies and Night Songs, from which many of the songs on the album were taken. It is a book of very simple arrangements of familiar (and not-so-familiar) childrens' songs and poetry by Alec Wilder. One of the beautiful things about his arrangements is that they sound so simple, while they are quite harmonically complex.Shawn's endearing, wavering voice and intelligent re-arrangement of some of the songs only adds to the already endearing quality of the music.The last song on the album, Close Your Eyes, really hit me; Shawn's voice sounds so thin and glass-like...it makes me smile every time I hear it."
98300,2,Unique and Fresh,"I enjoyed paging through it. Picked it up and went straight to the Russia chapter, then South Africa. I practiced the 10 words to GET BY in Turkish at a recent party with my company friends, they were impressed. I kept landing on the toilet stories. I have a few good ones too. The meat of the book is the reality check, good information for professionals going on assignment. I just returned from India, that chapter is a must read for anyone going there. The cultural information is an added bonus that gave me an idea of behavior and what to expect. I've been to about half of the desitnations mentioned. I want to make it to the other half. Now I have some info to go on. Great read and easy to view the info."
98301,2,Mercy Me Almost There,"The music of Mercy Me is excellent. The song ""I can only imagine makes me feel as if I'm ""Almost There"". If you don't have the CD yet, I highly recommend it!"
98323,2,"This is a terrific tribute to ""Old Blues Eyes.""","Not as good as ""Singin with the Big Bands"" CD that Manilow released in 1995 or ""Paradise Cafe"", this CD is still a terrific tribute to ""Old Blue Eyes."" The difference is that in ""Singin with the Big Bands"", Manilow sang over the original background and orchestra music of the originals like Glen Miller and Johnny Mercer. With the Sinatra CD, Manilow has some great musicians backing him up; however, for example, ""The Summer Wind"" sounds too much like a '70s lounge act. You can't outdo the Nelson Riddle arrangements. Manilow's opening and closings pieces which he wrote truly summarize Sinatra. Manilow's choices are excellent. They just don't write songs like this anymore. Too bad he couldn't add ""Rain or Shine."""
98355,2,excellent,Excellent. This book kept me from sleeping. I just could not put it down. What a ending. I never thought about this person being the cause of all the events that occurred. This book need to become a movie.
98370,2,GET CRUED,"There are so many bands that release so many different versions of ""greatest hits"".All they do is re-arrange the same songs. I'm glad the crue did not do that with this and the decadence releases. Although, I feel their greatest hits are in the album that is next from them. LONG LIVE THE CRUE"
98388,2,A Joyful Read Every Time,"Amy's Eyes is a wonderful, whimsical book that is sure to delight. I discovered this book in fifth grade, and to this day it remains my favorite. Adventure, intrigue, love, loss...all are included in this wonderful story. Richard Kennedy's writing style causes the story to flow as smoothly as the waves of the ocean on which the story rests. I dearly loved this book as a child, and was delighted to finally find a copy of it that I could purchase. Since that time I have reread this book at least once a year (many times more) and still enjoy it every bit as much as I did all those years ago. This edition is wonderful- the pictures are beautiful, and just add to the wonder and merriment of the story. The children love it, I love it...It's wonderful, and I would highly recommend it to anyone with a lot of imagination and who loves a good tale."
98407,2,Worth the Read,"This book is definately worth a read. It is entertaining, witty, and romantic. Unfortunately, it is also, at times, unrealistic, trite and silly. Despite the negatives, I could not put it down...I needed to know how it ended. The author did rush the ending and wrapped it up so quickly I felt that she she had simply reached her page limit."
98482,2,Deer in the Headlights,"I felt like a deer confronted with an on coming car. The book was disturbing but, once engaged, I could not turn away. At age 56, I remembered the historical references which I had not thought about for ages. It's the forgetting that claims us all...which comforts us all. Upon completion, I was left with a chilling understanding and, surprisingly, a sense of forgiveness for things I'm happy to not have witnessed in my life. Time does not heal all wounds and honesty, with ourselves, seems impossible when life gets too hard to witness. A conclusion that makes me more convinced not to judge that which I do not know. Gripping...disturbing...thought provoking."
98609,2,The Kids love them!!,"These are awesome little things. My children are 6 and 9 yrs old and they love their MP3 player! They hold plenty of songs for the kids to enjoy, and if you have a memory card and a card reader with usb, you can copy them easily from your computer to the memory card, which is supplied with the shaker. Now the shaker, we haven't been able to get them to change songs by shaking, but they are easy for them to control volume and change to the next song. The ear phones are a little big for the smaller ears, so I got cheap headphones to go with them. I would definately recommend them for any child that loves music."
98643,2,Excellent progressive breaks from a GREAT dj.,"Chris Fortier put together a great set on this cd, as he always does at all his live dj performances. Great track listing and a perfect mix. Some of the best remixes of UK trance tracks, and some unexpected gems from some top US producers as well."
98670,2,I'm sure glad I waited for the re-release of this one.,"This is Jude Cole's Debut CD from the 1980's, the same CD that's been floating around ebay for years for very large amounts of money. I'm just glad I never gave in to the temptation of buying it for $50 or $60 when I got it here on Amazon for $10.97"
98891,2,Great Book!,"It was so good to re-connect with Sonny, Michael, Fredo, etc. If you're a Godfather fan you'll love it too."
98893,2,Meets my needs,"This inexpensive slide reviewer meets my needs perfectly. It is well constructed, takes up a small amount of space to store and the slides are clear and sharp when viewed. Happy with the product CA :>)"
98942,2,3EB Is The Best!!,"3EB is the best music group in the world! I listen to their CD at least once a day! Every song is great! My favroites include: Loosing A Whole Year, Semi-Charmed Life, How's It Going To Be, Thanks A Lot, Jumper, and Graduate!! It's not too heavy and not too lite - its just right!"
98966,2,Jermaine Stewart,A great follow up to his previous album. He had style and class. A great mix of pop and soul that makes you feel groovy and romantic!
99076,2,"Captivating, breathtaking","Since the opening frames of this excellent movie I knew I had to buy the soundtrack. When watching the film, the music creates the mood and gives you an idea of the size and magic of the ""ship of dreams"". The music is captivating and I still find myself crying when listening to my CD. It's breathtaking. END"
99223,2,women's aura jeans,I love these jeans!! The fit is fantastic and they are very comfortable. It would be very helpful if they were available in a petite length so I didn't have to hem them. I just bought another pair. They are really hard to get and this is the first time they have been available since I bought the first pair in April. I wanted to get two pair but only one was available.
99246,2,Great History of the Middle East,Mrs Albright has a strong grasp of Middle Eastern history as well as Islam. A good quick read by a very moderate voice.
99254,2,Motel of the Mysteries,Great and interesting book for adolescents! I would highly recommend this book because it will keep you on the edge of your seats.
99267,2,Velbon tripods are the BEST on the market.,"This is a high-end Velbon tripod, but if you have a few extra dollars and take photography seriously, it might pay to get this one.The height is great and overall body construction is EXTREMELY solid. Not rickety at all. The pan head pans smoothly and the legs lock easily and firmly. Invest wisely in this Velbon. :)"
99308,2,Great monitor stand,"I was looking for something I could put my monitor on with room underneath for my laptop, and this one is great. Even if your computer needs to be opened slightly for it to work, it still fits. There's even a tray to slide the laptop out, although the cords do get in the way, making this difficult. The stand is very sturdy so I'm not nervous about putting my monitor on top of it. The only drawback for me is that I'm short and the stand raises my monitor a bit higher than I'd like. It has extenders to raise the stand even further, but it would be nice if it had shorter legs, too. Otherwise, it's great, and gives me a lot more room on my desk."
99347,2,"Delicious, Delightful, Delovely","Without knowing anything about Moroccan cooking, I opened Cooking at the Kasbah with a bit of trepidation and a lot of curiosity. Well, within seconds my trepidation turned into awe, and my taste buds begged me to attempt the recipes. I am not a great cook- or an even an average cook. But the recipes and directions were clear and easy to follow. The end result was delighful, delicious and delovely. I have since used many of the receipes and given this book as a gift. It is always well received and appreciated- and then the real gratitude kicks in when my friends use the fabulous receipes. This cookbook, it's clear instructions and beautiful pictures is a great addition to any and all kitchen bookshelves"
99365,2,Awesome!,"I only ordered this DVD for the movie "" The Hearse"" I received so much more! I am so very Happy!"
99366,2,Great gift for sister!!,I got this gift for my sister for Christmas..she luvvvvved it!!! sprays on strong and then gets light...very soft and pleasant smell; but remember every perfume smells different on every person!
99371,2,Small problem with gift wrap but seller was helpful,"Every year I send some peanut M&Ms; to my dad for xmas with his gift, bought this and paid for gift wrap and note. It arrived at parents house with neither!The seller promptly contacted me after I submitted a claim, apologized, was courteous, and gave me a refund for the gift wrap and a 5% discount on my next order."
99420,2,And One Foot in Blues Nirvana,"This is a solid set from renowned performers who've improved like seasoned timber through the decades. Given their reputation as jocular raconteurs, I'm surprised that a little of their banter with the invited audience didn't make it onto the tapes. After all, it is a live recording, and yet there's something restrained about the air of the night, and even the performances. I hanker still for the elan of,'Music Is Just A Bunch Of Notes', and urge its release as a CD. All the covers are rejuvenated and Fred McDowell's,'You've Got To Move' is inspiring. Koerner's,'I ain't Blue, and Glover's,'Power Tool' demonstrate that their own material is at one with the traditional material. A continuing revelation with KR & G is the density of their playing. What they fit in 2.50 minutes is more potent than many artists achieve in twice the duration. These stories fan out in the mind; deltas of deeply lived feeling."
99488,2,"great story, style disconcerting","I've enjoyed the story as much as everyone else, and the book is hard to put down, but the author's style bothers me somewhat. I like books where multiple characters tell the story from their own points of view, but this author has several characters telling it in the first person, present tense, then switches in some chapters to the third person, then goes to flashbacks, all in no particular order. To enable the reader to follow what is going on, when using mulitple characters to tell a story I think the first or third person should be used consistently and there should be some kind of time line. This is particularly true for readers who may not be familiar with a country's history. Otherwise I liked this book a lot!"
99498,2,Why wouldn't everybody love Ray?,"Another superb season of 'Everybody Loves Raymond' to add to the collection. Brilliant as always with two of my favourite episodes in 'She's the One' and 'Baggage'. Classic TV and worth the price of the boxset alone.A little disappointed that the Wedding episodes appear shortened slightly and the bloopers is quite a bit shorter than on previous boxsets, but nonetheless, ELR Season Seven is a must-have addition for anyone who appreciates great comedy.I was saddened to hear of the passing of Peter Boyle who played Frank Barone in the series. He played some great roles over the years and in ELR did a brilliant job of making an a character who was grouchy and objectionable into someone who was funny and loveable. He'll be missed.So buy this boxset. You won't regret it and every time you go back and watch a few episodes it'll make you laugh.Roll on seasons eight and nine!"
99538,2,Better than the larger study guide,This book is the exact same thing as the larger CNE study guide but without all of the stupid ACME jokes and cross word puzzles. Many of the passages in the larger guide are just copied and pasted into this book. There are a few things however that just aren't covered in enough detail. You have to have a good knowledge before you read this book. If you are going to use this alone I would make sure you have a practice server to play with.
99600,2,Kevin Smith Gies his Fans a big Sloppy One,"This movie is the kind of movie that you would hope a director so in tune with his fans would make, it hits every favourite ""Askewniverse"" cliche and hams it up for the camera at every opportunity.However; this is so much of a fan movie it may turn off anyone who has not seen the other movies (Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy and Dogma.) Also, anybody who read the Graphic Novel ""Chasing Dogma"" also starring the two titular stoners will recognise a great deal of the plot from that little work here on the screen (although it was sorely missing DOOGIE NIGHTS.All in all the movie achieves what it sets out to do, make the viewer laugh and cheer for the main characters, snoogans."
99646,2,Warning!,If you want to have a life other than watching 24 over the next 2 weeks don't order the DVD. It is terribly addictive. Each episode ends with a twist that makes you want to watch the next episode immediately. With the DVD you can. Before you know it it is 2 am and you have watched 4 episodes.
99668,2,Great Phone!,"We've had several Panasonic cordless phones now and not only do they have great features and work very well, they just don't break. We've never replaced a Panasonic phone due to a problem and we've either handed down or re-sold our old ones. You will not be disappointed with this product."
99714,2,Nothing short of a masterpiece.,"As someone who is a huge fan of film(many would say im a film snob). I have seen all the classics, I see all the indie films, all the blockbusters, and foreign films. Movies are my passion. So if you told me, that a Muppet movie would end up being my movie of the year, I simply would not believe it. But this film simply works. Its a perfect movie, and their are very few movies i can say that about. Do i think its one of the best movies of all time? No, but it set out to do be a happy, fun and simple movie, and it did it succeeded one hundred percent. Never have i walked out of a movie, feeling so utterly happy about it. I saw this with my girlfriend and she agreed, it just makes you feel happy. The songs are great, the writing is great, the pacing is perfect, it never ceased to entertain me. This is a must see."
99764,2,The Westing Game,"I absolutely loved The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin. It is a classic story of an old millionaire, Sam Westing, who died suddenly on Halloween night. Following his death, sixteen heirs, his nieces and nephews, were called together for the reading of his will. They find, however, that this is no ordinary will; instead it is the outline for an outrageous game in which the heirs will be paired together in an attempt to find which one of them is Westing's murderer. Each pair gets a set of clues, and will work together to solve the mystery and win the game in order to gain the inheritance. Over the course of their search, robberies and bombings cause the will to become more than just a game, but rather a chance to save themselves and their partners, before Westing's murderer catches them, too."
99777,2,5 stars to the Westing Game,"The book the Westing Game was one of the best books I have ever read.This book was about 16 people who find out that they are the heirs of a man named Sam Westing. The heirs are trying to figure out who murdered Sam Westing. when they come to the Westing house for the reading of the will, they find out that the murder is one of them, so they can't trust anyone. I really liked this book, and I would recommend it to anyone who likes mystery or suspense books."
99780,2,I'M GLAD I PLAYED THE GAME BECAUSE....BOOM!,"HAVING ASSIGNED THIS BOOK TO MY 7TH GRADE HONORS LEVEL LANGUAGE ARTS CLASS, I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DIVE INTO A PREVIOUSLY UNEXPLORED GENRE OF LITERATURE. ALTHOUGH I HAD NOT READ MYSTERY NOVELS IN THE PAST, I NOW WILL DEFINITELY SEEK OUT MORE OF THEM (OR AT LEAST ANOTHER ELLEN RASKIN). THE AUTHOR SPINS AN INTRIGUING TALE OVERFLOWING WITH CHARACTERS STRAIGHT FROM OUR OWN NEIGHBORHOODS. KUDOS TO MS. RASKIN FOR CREATING A NOVEL THAT TRULY INVIVTES THE READER TO MAINTAIN ACTIVE INVOLVEMENT! THE WESTING GAME IS AN ENJOYABLE READ FOR ANY AGE."
99814,2,Never used it,I bought this cable for an older Panasonic laser printer but come to find out the manufacturer was not going to provide drivers for Windows 7 so with or without the cable I ended up getting another printer. The cable came with the USB drivers on a mini disc but since I did not use the cable I couldn't see giving it a rating of less than 5 stars.
99902,2,love it!,"Awesome movie, great action and special effects. Sorry this is the last movie in the trilogy. Bane was an awesome character!"
99962,2,It's not the destination--it's the journey,"Mr. Pears's chilly stripped-down revenge thriller unfolds in monologue form and does so splendidly. Its outcome is predetermined from the very beginning, but the telling is delicious, and its tour of the early-20th-century art scene is engrossing."
99984,2,An absorbing tale of horror mixed with science fiction,"When Vicky doesn't recieve the ten speed she desires for her birthday, one can't help but feel disappointed in her parents. It's clear to everyone but them that that's what their daughter wanted. Of course, if she had gotten the bike, this story really wouldn't have been as fascinating as it was... Vicky is pulled mysteriously into the dollhouse after a period of creating brutal scenarios for the dolls to exist in, and is suprised to discover that they have adopted the personalities she gave them. The story progresses quickly, and is a sadly short read. Unlike some novels I could name, this one could've stood to be a bit longer. The illustrations make this one fantastic story, and I would strongly reccomend it to anyone looking for a good story with a strong and satisfying end."
99986,2,Better than expected for price.,It came well packaged & arrived sooner than expected. It is very well made & works perfectly. I bought it for the tilt option which works for shading the deck at the end of the day. Love it!
100057,2,Money well spent,"This little stick vacuum is perfect for exactly what it is meant to do, quick pick ups. I charged it exactly as directions indicated and it's been great for picking up in the dining area after my little ones. It's also great for a quick pick up on the stairs and entry rugs. I like the versatility of having just a hand vac too."
100109,2,"A mysterious story, not knowing what will happen next.",This is a good book by Christopher Pike. I could not put this book down after I started to read it. It takes place in L.A. California. It is a good book for people who like mysteries. It has a group of teenagers that are seniors in high school. Some person wrote a chain letter about how he knew that the teenagers buried someone last summer. The teenagers were trying to figure out who wrote the chain letter.
100191,2,Have a blindfold and earmuffs handy . . .,This movie is really good as far as plot and acting goes but it's not for the see-no-evil types. My semi-conservative parents were horrified at the nudity and vulgar language-Even my 16 year old brother was embarrassed! Leave this movie for the high-schoolers and college students who are targeted in this film. It's enjoyable but not brain food. It could also promote irresponsible behavior in drug and alcohol use and sexual issues.
100271,2,Marvelous book,"Marvelous book with a hokey title. The information onrelationships in this book can, if applied, help transform yourlife to the good - permanently. It's compatible with allreligious and spiritual traditions. I've been recommending thisand other Vernon Howard books such as 50 Ways to See ThruPeople, for nearly 30 years now. They are a ""must"" foreveryone who wants to learn to see through the ways of theworld and transcend them, who wants to apply spiritualawareness in everyday life, who wants to make a positivedifference in the world."
100418,2,The Journal of Patrick Seamus Flaherty Review,The caricters name is Patrick. Patrick turn down three football scallerships and then he signed up for being a vollenter soldier. A few weeks after the war started Patrick was sent to Vietnam. There he had to sigh a lot of contracts.Patrick hated the army .So when someone in the army got ambust the whole platoon had to go out and help the peaple. one night the peaple in the army where able to shoot all the wapons.One time Patrick had to push a piot in to a treanch. When he did inwas badly brused then was sent to Chairly Hospital. He hated the hospital but when he got back he was able to go home.I like the book becouse I like advencher and I like adventure. the age group is 10 and up.
100424,2,book,fun to read. Interesting to experince Jim Morrisons mind..on paper. No one gets out of here alive. Snake man himself.
100427,2,don't know what we're having,"My husband and I want to keep our first baby's gender a secret so I had to find a nursery set that was gender neutral but didn't have teddy bears all over it. I was browsing at Babies R Us and was surprised to find this collection there. The sales person said it was a new line called Wendy Bellissimo. I found this collection called Starlight which is perfect for us. The colors are very soft and pale and not at all overwhelming, which I liked. The bumpers are all slipcovered too, which means washing the crib set is going to be very easy. I also really liked all of the coordinating accessories, especially the window treatments and child's chair slipcover. If you are looking for a non-gender specific nursery set, I highly recommend you take a look at this one. (The pictures on-line don't do it justice.)"
100430,2,Funky Lil' Songs,"This is a fun album! The songs are really eclectic - some of them are cute and upbeat, others are spaced-out and dreamy, but they all create great atmosphere, and they're thoroughly enjoyable. And then proceeds go to a charity to help fight autism, so you can't go wrong. My favorites are ""I'm Bruce"" by Fantastic Plastic Machine and ""Soul Transportation"" by DJ Me DJ You."
100445,2,Excellent!,"Please understand that I like to use all 5 stars in my ratings. This one has been in my portable for 2 weeks now and I'm not tired of it. This is traveling music! John Hiatt comes to my mind, of vocal and songwriting quality. A little more emphasis on the KICK! These folks can tap the accelerator on or off just a touch without looking around at each other. Check that out, it's really cool. You don't hear it done like that. I get the feeling they know each other. Really tight, seasoned musicians, who deliver what I like; substance and toe-tapping. Foot stompin'! I think I hear an ""F-bomb"" being dropped on my favorite track. I would rather all that be left to Poop-Diddy-O or whoever, hence the 4 stars. This is probably the biggest sleeper in my collection. Buy this one!"
100446,2,"Penn excells with ""MHJ"".","Michael Penn is a ridiculously underrated talent. ""Mr Hollywood Jr."" is not his best record; that would be ""Resigned"". But it's awfully good. Penn does not hide his affection for The Beatles; it permeates everything he does. But Penn has some real rock muscle, combined with pop sensibilities. That's a rare combination and Penn has mastered it, here."
100472,2,Great actresses=great movie!,Ladies in Lavender features 2 great actresses and a delightful story set on the English coast. The photography is wonderful and this adds to the enjoyment of the movie. Ladies in Lavender is a wonderful way to spend an evening. You will not be disappointed!
100474,2,TOUCHES THE HEART,"This is a lovely story about two aging sisters. Both Judi Dench and Maggie Smith are magnificent in their roles. I loved the movie and wish more movies were made with interesting story content instead of the slam, bam, thank you ma'am action (I use the term loosely) movies that usually dominate the market. You will love this movie if you appreciate what happens to people in different stages of their lives. This is a wonderful movie!"
100512,2,NO ENTIENDO COMO FUNCIONA ESTO...,"SÓLO SE QUE LOS HECHIZOS DAN RESULTADO,...ESTOS Y LOS DEL PRIMER LIBRO DE ALLEN !"
100562,2,A voice unlike any other!,"Upon first seeing this movie as an early teenager, I knew there was something unique about Jane Froman's voice. Over the years, I've come to believe that her courage in dealing with incredible obstacles and pain is what I hear in that voice!It was exciting to see this movie again on cable about 20 years ago and now after more that 50 years, we will be able to own it and watch it anytime. It is being released for what would have been Jane Froman's 100th birthday, which will be celebrated by her fans in Columbia, Missouri, November 9-11, 2007. For fans who want to know more details about Ms. Froman's life and how the story ended, Barbara Seuling's biography of Ms. Froman, ""Say It With Music"" will also be published this November."
100576,2,touching and heart warming,"I think we've gotten so used to Jennifer Aniston playing Rachel Green on ""Friends"" that many people didn't give ""The Good Girl"" a chance when it was released. Big mistake, because Aniston is remarkable. As Justine Last, a bored employee at the Retail Rodeo, Aniston is simply remarkable, embracing the spirit of a small town girl in all its glory. As her depressed lover, Jake Gyllenhaal is also good, making us root for him while at the same time asking, ""what is the matter with him?"" Writer Mike White's script is thoughtful and full of sharp dialogue, and director Miguel Artera keeps the story flowing while allowing the actors to fully develop their characters. For everyone involved- WELL DONE!!!"
100643,2,Best impulse buy ever,"This was a pure impulse buy based on an Amazon suggestion when I bought something else. I love science fiction but love good writing even more. Never heard of this show when on Fox, never watched the Buffy stuff so I was totally taken aback by the incredible quality of the Firefly shows. The character development, the acting and the dialogue are amazing. I popped Disc One into the DVD player one boring Sunday evening and ended up going to sleep at 3am. Work disrupted things so I had to finish on Monday night. Now I am watching the whole set over again to catch the great lines and nuances that I missed the first time. May even go right back to it a third time. It is that good. You will NOT be sorry if you just order this with no background on Firefly. Finding these little gold nuggets are what makes life so much fun. I am even ordering the Buffy DVDs. If this guy is this good, I have to check out his other stuff. Whedon is someone to keep your eye on. He has some serious talent."
100725,2,Ludacris-Chicken n Beer,I bought this cd yesterday n i think its top dog! I av listened to it bout 8 times nah more like 28 times sad i no but who gives a .... Anyways this album is a must buy and to all the peps lovin luda get dis cd an quick its all u want in a cd an more!!!!!
100731,2,It's BNL All The Way,"I read the other reviews before posting and I disagree. I also claim to be the biggest fan and I think it is exactly what I would expect from BNL - half amusing, half great music. I love their remake of Do They Know It's Christmas. A few of the songs on here are pretty silly but for anyone who has ever been to a BNL concert, this is what makes them so amazing. I am happy to add this to my collection and although I wouldn't say it is one of their best, it is certainly worth having and it beats the pants off any other holiday record I own. It is BNL afterall - and as usual, it is completely entertaining."
100753,2,"For the money, a good buy.","These are not great earphones. Let me begin by saying that. But they are very inexpensive isolation stereo earphones. I commute every day on a noisy subway, followed by a walk through a noisy downtown, and with the regular earphones, I had to turn my music up to obnoxious levels just to be able to make out what song I was listening to. These do a great job of shutting out a lot of the other sounds so that the volume can be lower and still recognizable. I gave these a 4 only because the build quality, as expected, is sub par. These will break, it's only a matter of time. But my first pair lasted about 9 months, and for $6 or so (with shipping), I can accept that."
100772,2,Great budget ear phones,"I bought these ear phones for working out for two simple reasons: They are cheap. They have the rubber, sound-isolation tips. While the sound quality of these ear phones is not as good as JBuds (I own the J2's), they are still much better than the standard ipod earbuds. They are also quite comfortable, and fit in my ears perfectly. For the price you really cannot go wrong. If you are not looking for exceptional quality (which I assume is true if you are considering $5 headphones), and you just want cheap, reliable, comfortable earphones that effectively muffle outside noise, these are for you."
100798,2,GREAT BOOK EVEN WHEN YOU GET THE DRUGS!!!,"This book was quite a blessing to me. I primarily used it to build my faith after being told that my husband and I might have difficulty conceiving. Once pregnant, the book helped me move confidently through the nine months instead of in fear over the baby's health and other possible problems.In January, God answered our prayers giving us a beautiful baby boy!!! I should point out that I did get the epidural but prior to receiving it felt peaceful and relaxed.Overall, I had a wonderful birth experience and can't stop thanking God for our awesome son!"
100844,2,Chicks with Sticks (Knitwise),"At this time, all the summaries and reviews on this page are from the previous two books. Here is the scoop from the inside cover of the hardback (I haven't finished it so I can't truly review it yet)""For Scottie, Amanda, Bella, and Tay, life in Chicago is about seeking shelter. They've found it in their firelit stitch-n-[...] at Joe; in the halls of their quirky private school; in the arms of boyfriends-and always in the comfort of friendship that bonds them together.But now the Chicks are staring down at the end of high school and it's time to contemplate life beyond the protective web of their knitty ensemble. Will the stresses of college applications and service projects, debutante balls and long-distance loves, mean the end of the Chicks? Or can this unlikely foursome bind-off the happy ending that only true friendship can craft?The end is only the beginning for the Chicks, who return with their trademark wit and warmth along with four fabulous new projects."""
100902,2,Identical to my print copy,"I have most of this set beautifully bound by Folio Society in print and don't want to write in those volumes, so I use this kindle edition to allow me to add my copious notes to refer back to, highlight quotes that appeal and generally augment my reading pleasure. This kindle set works well for this purpose.Another advantage of the the kindle copy is that it has all the introductory material which I value too. Plus it also contains all the poetry and some lesser known works - it is truely ""complete"", well edited coming from Oxford and so a copy I can trust. I value this as I primarily use my kindle for complete editions of literature eg Dickens, Austin, Hardy et al and the classics."
100941,2,sabor latino,"antony santos is the best bachatero there is in the dominican republic. He knows the gitar better than any bachateros. sabor latino is one of the best, but there are more to come. I heard that the CD for this december is going to be the best."
101031,2,"Showcase for pretty, pouty Brigitte Bardot","The Brigitte Bardot of the 1950s was just developing her sex kitten style, provocatively posing and walk-gliding, teasing with a minimum of nudity (half-exposed breasts and backside), showering - in a bikini! - and otherwise doing gratuitous things like pillow fighting and mock bullfighting. She is lovely to watch, and Stephen Boyd is her sulky, smouldering lover who murdered her rich uncle, his former employer, and is now on the run with Bardot trailing along. The story is similar to Godard's ""Breathless"" though not as good, a much better effort was ""Contempt"" which Bardot filmed for Godard in the early 60s. Though the story is thin, the rocky Spanish countryside scenery is lovely, as was the young Bardot."
101069,2,A pleasant shopping experience,Shopping with Amazon is a no brainer. I have always recieved my purchase on time and have always been satisfied with the product.
101135,2,Planet Bike Blinky Super Flash,"This is an excellent, bright, easy to use, and reasonably priced light. My only complaint is that I wish its mounting options allowed it to be mounted to the rear rack on my commuting bike. However, I feel confident riding home in the dark with this flashing behind me."
101156,2,Excellent Presentation,"This is a thorough, complete, and excellent history of New York's World Trade Center, from conception to destruction. Very competently put together. I initially had bad trouble with the framing of the picture on the DVD and complained about it in my first review, but Whistler from Bowie, MD pointed out that the problem may have been due to the settings on my DVD-player. Indeed by changing the setup I was able to achieve the full picture. Thank you Whistler. I am pleased now to be able to recommend this presentation wholeheartedly and to give it the highest grade it deserves."
101192,2,mushrooms no problem,"I use this slicer to cut mushrooms around 2-5 times per week. I've had it for less than a year. It works great. The slices are nice and uniform, it is easy to use. I bought two on a Friday sale because I had concerns about the durability after reading the other reviews and the product was so cheap. After much heavy use slicing various types of mushrooms I feel this slicer is durable. And yes, it does sound nice when played like a little harp."
101228,2,My thoughts!,"Hi, I am 13 years old and only began reading this book because my mother told me it was the best book she ever read. At first only read it when I had to but as I turned the pages the story of Wang Lung and his epic tail of life in China during the 1920's ingulped me to the point where I couldn't put it down! It takes alot to get me intrested in a book and with The Good Earth being a historical book I was not ready to spend 3 months reading it. But as soon as I started reading it was a disapointment when I had to go back to the library and get a new book. The only thing I could find wrong with the book was the way it would drag on for a while and have no climax what so ever nad then the next moment it seems as though you never want the book to end because it is SO good. So my opinion is read it (even though it might take some time)and see what you think of it!"
101243,2,The Vicar of Dibley,A well known Brit com series. Made for several years. One of my top 5 favorite series.
101280,2,"great gate, great price",COmes with many parts that let you customize the gate to your openeing. Bar spacing is very good and latch makes it safe when you don't wnt a chiold to open the gate.Use it for my small dog.Highly recommend it.
101400,2,Best bathtime purchase!,"I first bathed my baby in the hospital because she was in the Special Care nursery. It was nerve-wracking! She was all wiggly and slippery, and I was afraid I'd drop her and she's swallow water. When I got her home I started using this product, recommended by a research-crazy friend.My daughter is now 6-months old, and smiles and kicks and giggles right through her baths. I don't worry about her slipping around, and the Safer Bather is soft and contoured, not hard plastic like some baby baths.The only bad thing is that sometimes I forget to hang it up right away (when you pick up baby, wrap in towel, then go to get her dry and dressed), and then when I do get around to it I worry it might get mildewy. Sunlight is great for killing off germs, so I'm going to put it out in the sun this weekend and that will fix that.I expect my daughter to be sitting up shortly, but we'll use this until then - highly recommended!"
101401,2,Didn't consider anything else,"The first time I saw the Safer Bather on the site, I didn't consider registering for any other bathing product. I had no desire to place my newborn in a hard plastic tub, and his first bath was a great experience with the Safer Bather-- he was well supported and comfortable. Easy maintenance-- just wring out and hang to dry. On one occasion, the baby had a bm during his bath and while it would have been nice for the mess to rinse off a little more easily, I rinsed it off as best I could then tossed it in the washing machine. This is a great product for baby's bathtime."
101439,2,THE AUTUMN WIND IS A RAIDER.,"Again, The Sabol Family and NFL Films proves why no one else should be documenting the National Football League. Part of the Emmy Award winning series AMERICA'S GAME, these 3 segments are outstanding, whether you're a Raiders fan or not. Most moving is the tribute by Todd Christensen (""The only sin is the sin of ingratitude,"")in the 1983 segment. The Raiders Theme by Sam Spence is dynamic and played throughout, as it should be. The only thing that could have made this series better is (the late) John Facenda (The Voice Of God) narrating."
101460,2,Great Toy Indeed!,"I am the Star Wars FanaticThis toy is very fun to play with. Now, you can be the ultimate villain. It comes with a lightsaber,helmet,cape,and chestplate.But, that is not the only thing about it. First I thought it would have Lord Vaders costume, but no! So, if you want the complete costume get a Darth Vader costume, that is what I did. Darth Vader is very famous full of that Dark Side energy. Star Wars Ultimate Darth Vader Kit is very amazing and if you are anxious how interesting this toy is..... You have to buy it!"
101551,2,Great organization tool!,"I purchased this notebook to help with my personal and business organization. Now, All my notes go into one notebook...this one is very well made. I will purchase another Moleskine when I fill this one up!"
101602,2,"Funny movie, but...","I so wanted to see this one in the theaters but missed it. I rented it when it came out and bought it before I returned the rental dvd. I thought it was very very funny and has the most unique scene of someone nearly preventing their own conception!The part of it that I take exception to is this: I am part of the generation that is shown going back in time. I was 21 in 1986. Not everyone in my generation (or any others) did the drugs and stuff that they show. They give the impression that everybody did drugs then but we didn't all do them. I stayed away from them and haven't ever touched them. Normally I dis any movie that glorifies drug use but in this case I made an exception.Ignore the drug use (not all of us did that) and enjoy seeing of all people, Chevy Chase being called an old man! I just don't have that mental image of him as an ""old man"" sort of like I can't imagine Clint Eastwood being called an old man by anyone who wants to live to see tomorrow!"
101607,2,A collection of poetry inspired by the tragedy and sorrow caused by the tsunami worldwide,"Only The Sea Keeps: Poetry Of The Tsunami, collaboratively edited by Judith R. Robinson, Joan E. Bauer and Sankar Roy, is a collection of poetry inspired by the tragedy and sorrow caused by the tsunami worldwide. Deeply moving and intimate, Only The Sea Keeps gives the reader the gift of knowing, feeling and becoming a part of the tragedy. Faithfully recommended for all who feel the repercussions of the tsunami's strike. Sonnet After The Tsunami: Oh the sea will return and sing out/our names from the leagues below;/claim its face here -- /nose to the horizon,/its lips of mud,/foaming eyes.//Pa and Ma are in the heavens./They re safe. Neighbors and/animals gone,/birds so quiet what's speech/for? A throaty sound of this/one pebble on the beach.//Roll it again,/roll. -- Alamgir Hashmi"

101740,2,weren't we all him ... ?,"Come on critics, lighten up. This movie is pure fun. I love it as much in my 40's as I did in my 20's. It may not be hip enough for later generations, but if you came of age in the 80's - it should remind you of yourself, and make you smile.Yes, Ione is stunningly beautiful, and the direction is awesomely tailored to capitalize on that fact. Highly stylish.There is a catchy soundtrack; and, dare I admit it, I could relate to Charles Hiway far too many times. The Rachel Papers captures perfectly the chase, the rapture, and the disappointments of that first killer crush. I love this movie! ... enough to waste my precious time to write a review of it. :)"
101742,2,How we ended up where we are today!,"Paris 1919 is a good book that looks at the ""peace"" effort that was forced on the World by the victors of the Great War. It is a good overall look at the competing interest and political difficulties that left the world divided and led to the almost endless struggles in Europe, the Middle East, and in other far off regions."
101766,2,Flash Dance - CD,Flashdance: Original Soundtrack from the Motion PictureGreat music. This album has a history for me. I met a very overweight young woman who had to tend the family deli since her father was unwell.The aspirations of the woman in the story became her mantra. My friend was motivated enough to start college in the little free time she had with the goal of a degree in marketing - her passion.
101783,2,back to me is,"intriguing lyrics by a raw young talent. Her voice is sexy and somewhat unpolished, but you can see her growth and hard work ethic in the latest video on rave tv..worth every penny..."
101842,2,Leaving Pico,"Only because I was raised there and grew up in that end of town I knew the people he was referring to (even though names were changed) I knew his family. I maybe wrong, but I don't think it would have held the attention of another reader for long..It was a great time and town to be raised in and the way he wrote about the people caring and life style was ""right on"" It was an era of time that I was grateful to grow up in. Family was everything....and neighbors were extended family. That's the way it was....We are of the same ethnic back ground, for me it was a step back in time that no longer exists there. It brought back many memories. Thanks for letting me express myself."
101862,2,Inspiring,"Well thought out and an excellent presentation of the Biblical roots of Carmelite spirituality.This is more of an overview than a full blown treatment but there are many, many gems andinsights well worth the price of the book. Recommended."
101876,2,Love it,The book arrived in a timely manner and in perfect condition. Am really enjoying reading it.
101893,2,Good book,"The story is a good one. Paolini really is improving his writing skills. It is a bit wordy, not much action BUT he gives good insight into the characters' (Saphira & Eragon)development. Every series has that one book that gives a lot of story due to things like falling in love or training and development; well this is that book. I think he does a good job keeping you engaged in the story though. There is a great climactic battle scene and when he faces his enemy you are taken by surprise at who that enemy turns out to be. This is a good book especially if you intend to read the whole series because it does close a couple of loopholes before continuing the story line."
101899,2,"Review of Eldest--by Richard, age 11","I think that Christopher Paolini's book Eldest is the best book that I have ever read (at least that I can remember). It is best because it is imaginative, which I like, and really fits with Eragon. The book is set throughout the whole country of fictional Alegaesia. It's full of excitement and adventure, like the battle at the end, where, in a barren wasteland, sun blazing down, Eragon fights another rider. Before the other rider appears, he conquers one after another enemy sorcerers and mages. Who is he? No one will know till the end. I'm looking forward to the next book. Who knows what is coming next? During the storyline, Eragon tries to master his powers and skills, a goal which takes him to the elf city, Ellesmera. An crippled elf rider trains him to use magic, and to meditate on everything at once, instead of focusing on a single point."
101905,2,"long ,but very well worth it's hard to put down",This is one of the best books I have read in long timeplus it helped me to read more.AT the beginning it was kind of slow but soon it periked up i couldn't put it down. when they started to get to Roran it was even harder to put it down. right when they got to Ellesmera it was grate to lrean about the elven world. The serprise was relly good what Eragon's teacher was and is. Whan he gets in to the big fight with the army and the Varden and when he meet his brother agian. The BIGGER serprise is at the end of the book. It is a grate gite for a kid 12 and up.
101999,2,Worked perfect with my dual 1.8 G5 w OS X 10.4.10,"Worked perfect. All I had to do was remove the old drive: just press two latches and unplug the old drives cords and put in the new one and within minutes I was burning again. I paid $32 on Amazon and it took me about 5 minutes to install.Great deal, easy install, drive came in 3 days with free S&H;."
102033,2,Microsoft - Works Suite 2001 including Picture It 2001,"I was very excited at how much this was like my original Picture It of 2000. It lets me do just about the same things and I am so happy to finally find this disc. It is easier than all the other very hard to understand programs. Thank you [ASIN:B000MUK7AQ Microsoft Works Suite 2001: Word, Picture It!, Streets & Trips, Encarta, Works, Money] it was very inexpensive."
102051,2,Very well Made.. Not what I expected,"I think this movie is worth seeing if you want to. You must be into these kind of movies to aprecaite the level behind these movies. Although i did not give this movie a ""5"" star rating it is becasue when i bought it i was expecting somthing more. Do research before you see this movie, you'll be glad you did. Also this movie is very explicite and should only be seen by 17+. Which if your a teenager trying to see this movie, please see other like it. For example Romance, Antanomy of hell and of course 9 songs.BE ADVISED ALL OF THESE MOVIES ARE EXPLICITE AND SHOULD ONLY BEE SEEN BY ADULTS!!In short veiwers i like the movie but when i bought it it lacked a certain somthing. The scenes are good and the plot sucks but the only reason i bought this movie is so i could add it to my collection.Thank you."
102187,2,Little House Nine book set,This is a nice set and a lot expensive than what I found in stores or other websites. My daughter just loves it.
102196,2,The best Amateur - Profesional Chef,"This is a book with some of the best recipes in the World collected by an amateur Chef who could easily be a Profesional Chef. As a Master Chef and a Certified Chef de Cuisine I have used many of the recipes in the book with the most wonderful results. The satisfaction by my clients has been overwelming andmost satisfactory. Many of my clients have commented that they did not have the special dinner since they were in the restaurant they visited many years ago.I lost my copy and would love to get it again.Eddy Consenheim, CCC. MCFA."
102204,2,BASIC AND EXCELLENT,"When I listen to a CD, I'm focused on four basic elements: The production, the vocal performances, the lyrics, and the instrumentation. Production is clear, crisp, and a sonic treat. Vocals are great and match up perfectly w/the songs and lyrics. The harmonies are outstanding. Lyrically, there will be two types of listeners -- those who can relate, and those who are in denial. As far as instruments go, these guys (and a girl) are world class. As far as the comments I've read about them "" . . . not finding their voice . . . "" or "" . . . needing a theme . . . "", I have no idea what they're talking about. THe CD is snapshots of life, very basic, and excellent. Get it!"
102207,2,I don't even think about using a different shampoo!,"It's clear that EO products are developed through trial & error by thoughtful people, starting from gentle & mild -- but also substantial -- ingredients. They are definitely NOT the result of some corporate cosmetics laboratory process. I use EO Everday Shampoo as prescribed, Every Day, and love it. The gallon size is definitely NOT too big for a household."
102219,2,Great Book,"Great resource!I'm doing some research for a fiction book I want to write and this is the first book I picked up on the occult. For a beginner that wants a basic overview on the mystical and magical religions and spiritual practices throughout the ages, I highly recommend this book.Besides being a great reference book, it's written so well you'll probably want to read each and every entry."
102256,2,FIVE STARS,This is Truly the first Mariah Carey CD that I have listened to the first time buying it and have loved it from beginning to the end. She is a true acrobat with her voice. This is the best I have heard her in years. But this album!!!!!
102355,2,Corndogs for everyone!,"The Corndog Man comes to town.He'll warn you not to let that rat drown.If you like movies that don't follow the ""Hollywood formula"" but have a great story and acting check out Corndog Man."
102363,2,The cocktail book I turn to first,The chart in the middle of the book is invaluable. At a glance you can see what you can make with the ingredients on hand and confidentally experiment without straying too far off tried and true formulas (who knew the Sidecar and Margarita were related?).
102401,2,Wow!,This game is great. At first it was very cofusing but now I'm older. This is a great game for boys or girls. I would reccomend it for the ages 9-13. It was a great game and still is. I would reccomend you buying it.
102417,2,Fascinating,"I have always held a fascination for Mars, as have many people. This is a great documentary to get your taste buds watered up for the Mars exploration. Despite being a science fiction writer, I am still blown away by the progress of technology and what they were able to do with the Mars rovers.I won't reinvent the wheel by restating everything that was in the previous, very detailed reviews. I just want to mention a few things. This particular video is on the construction of the rovers (completely custom built), programming, the setup of the landers, etc. There were many trials and tribulations with this mission including issues with the parachute in the testing, the launching of the second rover, etc. I'm sure everyone involved was stressed out for quite a while until the final touchdown of these vehicles on Mars. If you want to see more on what happened after they landed, check outNOVA: Welcome To Mars. This was great and I look forward to more documentaries on the Mars exploration."
102450,2,Cordless Hand Mixer Replacement,"We've had a B&D; Cordless Hand Mixer in our kitchen for over 10 years. It served us well for many applications until recently when the NiCad batteries finally gave out. A search of popular chain stores (K-Mart, Sears, Walmart) turned up no suitable replacement.Searching Amazon.com revealed the B&D; Gizmo which we ordered immediately. Upon receiving it we found that the holder which stores it matched the mounting screw locations of the previous mixer perfectly. The plug in charging cord, as opposed to the charging contacts in the previous holder, is a great improvement. There was no charging indicator light on the previous model to assure a good connection.The Gizmo performs as well as, if not better, then our ""old friend."" We are very pleased that B&D; continued to make this vital kitchen appliance and Amazon.com listed it for sale. Both should keep up the good work."
102455,2,Can't Wait to Get to Heaven,This book is absolutely fantastic. I love the well-developed characters and the narrator is a perfect fit. Fannie Flagg is a master story teller.
102456,2,warmth....,"My book club read this book this past month. Fanny Flagg has such a warmth in her writing. Her stories draw you in as if you are in the story along with the characters she writes about. This was an easy and enjoyable read, full of everyday relationships."
102489,2,A gift with class and meaning,I have always welcomed the opportunity to give a gift that has conversation as its central theme that is both ongoing and reflective.
102503,2,can we say HOT guys???,"yeah, it has a good plot, nice story and all, but seeing all these HOT guys in wet t-shirts or no t-shirts at all, need we say more??????????"
102519,2,soothing,It was very soothing. You should get it. I have not listened all the way through yet but will soon.
102644,2,Excellent Classy House & Classic House,Excellent compilation of House & Classic House tracks - very tasteful - one of the better sets within the BARGROOVES series.
102722,2,So much easier and safer than tweezers!,I love this product! It is safer than tweezer since it does not squeeze the ticks body. The ticks are absolutely awful this year and I have unfortunately had to use this several times on my dog. Works great!
102725,2,Works perfectly! Ticks beware..,"After a couple of months of trying to pull ticks off with my hands encased in plastic bags and all sorts of theatrics, I finally decided that there has to be a better way to pull off ticks from our dog. Enter.. Ticked Off! I received it yesterday, and when our dog home from the kennel today - I immediately found a couple of dog ticks on him, half-engorged - Ugh. Grabbed the tick spoon, carefully framed the tick between the crevice of the spoon and slid it forward - scooping up the tick successfully. Barely took 10 seconds, and the tick's head was intact. It didn't pull off any of the dog's skin (which is what happens when I use my fingers to pull a tick off). Fast, easy and effective.My next line of attack against the ticks will be Frontline Plus, and possibly Preventic collars - but that's another review or two!"
102750,2,I LOVE IT,"this is the second Houdini I've owned, and this one seems to be much sturdier and operates more efficiently than the first one. It feels better in my hand and extracts the cork with less effort, putting less strain on the handles."
102782,2,Harvest,Good book which I found hard to put down. Tess Gerritsen writes good stories that keep you rivetted from the first page to the last/
102895,2,For anyone and everyone,"SECOND HELPINGS is most definitely the best true-to- life and remarkable teenage story out on the market.For fans of Mia Thermopolis, Alice McKinley, Georgia Nicolson, Bridget, Lenna, Tibby, or Carmen, there is no doubt in my mind that this thrilling and realistic story will bring home memories (or current feelings) of true high school angst.I even caught myself staring in disbelief as I was reading; shocked by the reality of Jessica in comparison to me. I checked my OWN journal, making sure no Miss. Hyacinth Blue had stolen into my bureau.To be serious, though, I have never felt so touched or so amazing after finishing a book than this one. The roots of this book run deep; they run through us all.If you haven't read this, you're missing out!"
102993,2,Pump IT,"Gostei muito do servio, o jogo juntamente com o tapete chegaram em minha casa antes do prazo e chegaram em perfeito estado..... sou do Brasil, moro em Brasilia, e gosto muito desse jogo e agora num vou precisar comprar fichas e jogar no shopping. outro aspecto muito importante é que a qualidade do tapete eh muito boa.. melhor que o generico do DDR e o fato dele grudar no chao eh muito bom!"
102997,2,Another winner from Julia London,"It seems impossible, but Julia London just keeps getting better and better. This book enchanted me from the very first page. Adrian is a 'dark' hero to savor and yearn over. Lilliana is a delight and determined not to be ignored. Together they fight their way through to happiness and a most satisfying ending. This is one of those books you can't put down, then you are sorry it is over. I can't wait for the next book in this trilogy."
103090,2,Great Condition!,"I bought this as a present for my boyfriend. I was a little nervous about the condition of the product, and having it shipped. When it arrived it was in GREAT condition. My boyfriend loved it. Thank you for supplying such a hard to find product in perfect condition"
103107,2,A historical novel,"Written by a Georgian during the Soviet period this is a historical novel which covers the rise and fall of Georgian kings during the 13th Century.The author captures the sentiment of the Georgian people during that difficult time in their history when surrounded by powerful neighbours (The Mamaluks to the south, the Seljiq to the West, the Persians to the East and Russians to the North) They survive as a nation and people. It captures the multi-ethnic and multi religious nation where Islam and Christianity has strongly influenced the land.He described the trade between Georgia and the West, how the Georgians looked on in awe at the Venetian ships they traded with and also the political marital agreements they made with their powerful neighbours, sending off Georgian princesses to marry Mamaluk princes.The book goes on to describe the downfall of the Georgian kingdom, the Mongol invasion and the destruction of the Georgian people.Wonderful book, recomended."
103114,2,Good Product,"It was not exactly the product I needed and I did have to modify it somewhat, but it worked fine. If you have the right base I am sure it would be easier to work with."
103225,2,Enjoyable Old Time Music,I purchased this for my mother who is a fan of old time Country Gospel. We enjoy Andy Griffith and would recommend any of his works.
103248,2,Great tunes for good times,"I defy anyone to listen to this CD without grinning. I've had it in the rotation for months & enjoy it more every time. The instrumentals are tight and lead vocalist Gil Sayre is the real thang. Whether you're an oldtime connoisseur, a newgrass fan looking for roots, or someone who dug the O Brother Where Art Thou soundtrack, you'll love the Stillhouse Rounders."
103283,2,When Worlds Collide,"This Cd is so awesome! Spider the lead singr is brothers w/ Rob Zombie! The best song is When Worlds Collide. Ginger Fish from the Gothic Manson is on it, DJ Lethal is on it, Rob Zombie's on it. PM5K sounds like Rob Zombie and Marilyn Manson."
103295,2,great read!,Ryan's Return was an easy read and very enjoyable. I have just started reading some of BF's books and I really like her work.
103360,2,Intrigue Mixed With a Bit of Fear,"When I first bought this book I thought, ""Oooh...creepy ghost stories...just my type"". I didn't realize however that I was about to open a book that was full of more than just ""creepy"" ghostly happenings. The story of Greyfriar's cemetary is one that is widely known throughout the area, yet I knew very little, but this book changed that. While explaining the events and happenings that surrounded the MacKenzie poltergeist it also explained all the scientific, historical, and otherwise basic information. There were times when the book fell a little slow, but it almost came back in full swing with another frightening story of the poltergeists abilities. This book isn't about to scare you into hiding under your covers, but it'll sure give you the creeps. I, myself am finding that I'd love to visit the cemetary and take the City of the Dead tour myself just to see what happens..."
103389,2,Fabian Salas is the Best!,"This DVD is easy to understand and does explain the fundamentals of Argentine Tango. I used this DVD prior to taking a basic Tango class and felt very confident when I got there. Not to mention, that my Tango instructors studied with Fabian Salas in Argentina! Highly recommended!!"
103423,2,Recommend this book.,"Just what I wanted. Lots of good info, lovely photographs. A good companion book to any of the other National Audubon Field Guides. 4 full stars."
103443,2,Good Deal!,"This is my 2nd Remington SF3 electric razor. My 1st one last for about 4 years (I used it for about 3 days a week) before its screen broke, then the blade needed changing... With its price,I am completely satisfied with this razor. Before that, I had a Brun?? which costs me over $60 but it lasted only about 1year and a half then the battery started not holding charge...."
103459,2,Catz Love'm,"The Attract-O-Mat is kind-of-like the Mysterious Purr Padd BUT thinner, smaller and has a nice boarder material. I've gotten several of these with different color boarders. I have the Gray one as shown, then I got one with a bright Gold boarder and another with a really nice bright Fire Truck Red boarder. I did not request different colors they were just sent at random.The Attract-O-Mat is designed to lay flat like the Purr Padd so you can't makedeep beds for cats to crawl in. The material used in the Attract-O-Mat is close to the same as Mysterious Purr Padd so my cats are attracted to it.I think the Mysterious Kuddle Kup is actually better than either of these pads.HOWEVER, The Mysterious Purr Padd does come with TWO 20x20 pads so that's a good deal!"
103515,2,"No sophomore slump, but there's room for improvement","This album gets off to an AMAZING start, but, unfortounantley, this is not sustained throughout the entire album. ""Wake Up"" is dreadful, and the last three songs ""Slow Down"", ""Samsonite Man"", and ""Nobody Not Really"" are average. But the rest is enough to save it from the sophomore slump."
103541,2,One of the best books ever,"This is one of the best books i have ever read. It is true that it has a strong resemblance to the lord of the rings, but it does have its own story. The resemblances include, Allanon to Gandalf, Shea to Frodo, Flick to Sam, Balinor to Boromir, Hendel to Gimli, the warlock lord to Sauron, the skull bearers to ringwraiths and minas tirith to tyrsis. Though these similarities take something away from the book it is still a great book. It's the basic story for a fantasy book. It's pretty much that Shea is the last heir of shannara so he is the only one who can use the sword of shannara, which is the only weapon that can kill the evil warlock lord. There are many twists throughout the book which make it so that it's not so predictable. In my opinion this book is better than Harry Potter, but is not quite as good as The Lord of the Rings."
103558,2,The history of Mardi Gras through 3 generations,"The story of Mardi Gras in New Orleans is recounted in this novel about 3 generations of young men and women whose lives run in parallel. ""L'Americaine"" Andy Breckenridge falls in love with the creole beauty Estelle Lenoir during the season of her debut in 1890's New Orleans. Estelle is promised to another and problems ensue as she battles with her upbringing as an obedient daughter and the desire to throw it all away to be with the man she wants. Many years later Andy's married son Breck falls in love with Estelle's daughter Marie Celeste. The circle continues up through the 1940's as the descendants of Estelle and Andy find their lives remain intertwined until both sides find happiness and fulfilment. The settings during Mardi Gras celebrations of the upper classes are fascinating and anyone who loves New Orleans will enjoy these snapshots from another age."
103563,2,Time tested best teaching tool ever,"I found this series/package ~15 years ago and think it was the single best training series I ever found. I dropped my handicap by at least 15 strokes and understood more about the game than with any other aid I've ever used.The reviewer who said it was complicated may have a point, but this series gives correct/proven methods and no bad ones.Combine this with Harvey Penicks Little Red Book and beat your golf buddies like a drum."
103576,2,Looking Good,"All the previoous reviews talk simply about how the game looks, system requirements, game engines, and other esthetic thing that make a good game. No one talks about the gameplay, though. I have played the demo, and let me tell you, it plays pretty darn good. The sys requirements are low, and no special hardware is needed. Yes, it runs on the same engine as AOK, but it is more an improvement on AOK than a detriment to it. The demo is great and I believe the fullversion will be a must buy."
103618,2,It's a VCR... what more to say?,"I finally broke down and decided I should replace my old VCR since there really are quite a few movies with no immediate plans to be on DVD.I picked up this one at a local store (um, and paid more for it).. bah. It works. It plays movies. It plays them in stereo even. I'm not sure how this model differs from other 'current' VCRs, since it's been a long while (um, 10 years?) since I last went VCR shopping, but it seems to have plenty of features, including my favorite, an ""instant replay"" button that lets it playback the last 20 (or 40, or 60...) seconds of a tape. Great when you get interrupted in a movie or just want to see something again.It's trivial to operate, but has enough features to make it useful (um, though honestly I'll probably only use it for playback of rented tapes...)I guess the real question would be ""would you buy it again?""Yes. It works, it looks pretty, it's cheap enough that I wouldn't spend ages agonizing over the decision."
103647,2,Decent,"Not as good as the first season, but it's very Decent. Love the leads of this season! Jessica Lange is fantastic!"
103649,2,Only watch in the dark!,"This show is absolutely wonderful! A little demented, but awesome if you like psychological thrillers. There are more twists and turns than expected but all get pulled together in the end. I would suggest watching all the episodes in one sitting! I hate having to wait for the next episode to come out!"
103657,2,Scary,"Great show, but last season was much more suspenseful. Would recommend to others for viewing. A must see! Jessica Lang is awesome"
103670,2,More variations on a theme - the crime in the past,"In a fit of odd nostalgia I am re-reading many of Christie's novels, most of them Poirot books. (I have removed some non-review portions and posted them elsewhere.) An excellent spin on an oft used Christie motif - the investigation of the crime in the past. Although most of these types are crimes committed long ago this one is a crime from the recent past. And it is a murder that went undetected. More Christie ingenuity in the manner in which a poison is administered undetected, intentional misdirection of suspects, and the apparent insignificance of minutiae that lead to the final discovery of the culprit. The quaintness of the fox terrier ""talking"" got to be a bit too much for me this time around. Hastings is a prig in this one getting all riled up over Poirot's continual impersonations and lies. Overall, a good Christie of her early period, but not a great one."
103685,2,Classic,"This is a good sequel to Jules Verne 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. I like this book, although the movies don't do it justice."
103738,2,Classic ghost story,"This is a good, old-fashioned ghost story: intriguing; dark; moody; mysterious and creepy. It's more Dickens than King - at least early King - meaning it's more suspenseful than horrifying (and it's set in foggy, misty England, in a time period that's not really apparent from the story.)It's also the kind of mystery that unfolded slowly enough to keep me interested while at the same time giving up enough details along the way to let me guess (accurately, as it turned out) what was really going on. I always enjoy that, since I can be a bit slow sometimes when it comes to unravelling plot.All in all, a good tale for a ""dark and stormy night."""
103743,2,Not all hits!,"I have always questioned musicians adding non-hits in Greatest Hits albums. Springsteen's hits and good non-hits are almost endless. Granted this was not an anthology, but he could of at least added some his older well-respected work. His more recent stuff really is too bland and lacks the energy of his work at the end of the 70'sI just think he needed to add and subtract some songs to/from this album."
103766,2,Call the family to dinner,"What fun this cowbell is! I purchased it as a gift for a family member to go with the SNL's DVD 'Best of Christopher Walken'....""I need more cowbell!"". Beside the joke aspect, the cowbell is loud enough to be used to call the family to dinner, or to get the kids' attention when they are arguing. Oh yes, if you belong to a band, a cowbell is a backbeat essential."
103771,2,Ichiban,"Having recently taken up Shotokan Karate relatively late in life, I wanted to learn more about its origins and about the personality of its seminal figure. I don't think I could have chosen a better book for these purposes. Gichin Funakoshi was a truly inspirational person. His single-minded determination and dedication promoted an obscure, traditional Okinawan martial art into a worldwide phenomenon. Indeed, the popularity of all martial arts owes much to Funakoshi's efforts. His humility and inner strength are abundantly shown in the anecdotes he relates, and his embodiment of bushido is something all practitioners can, and should, aspire to."
103775,2,THIS CD IS GREAT,"I LOVE IT FROM BEGINNING TO END, IT HAS SOME FAST PACED WORK OUT MUSIC WITH JUST THE RIGHT SOUND. AT FIRST I DID NOT RECOGNISE HARDLY ANY NAMES SO I THOUGHT IT WAS GONNA SUCK BUT I WAS DEFINATELY WRONG. THIS IS SOMETHING YOU BLAST ON THE RADIO."
103889,2,The Last Hero,"I was pleasently suprised with this one. It was one of the few Discworld books that I had not yet read, so I forked over the $14 for a copy. Once I got it, I realized that $14 wasn't a bad deal.Every other page had an illustration, the paper was thick and glossy, and the book was more in the form factor of a conversation piece for your coffee table than a novel, to say nothing of the story, which was of course wonderful."
103895,2,A great series of superheros for any age,My son starting watching this last summer and became one of his favorites. He sings the theme song all the time. I'm so happy to have found it on Amazon for a reasonable price.
103897,2,Teen Titans,"My Oppinion: This is one of the best superhero team tv showes out there it has spunk, comedy, action and loveable characters my favorite Titan is Beast Boy, whats yours? This show rocks and the first season is awesome.About The Show: The Ten Titans are a group of teenage superheros which includ Robin, Raven, Cyborg, Beast boy & Starfire. The show is a spinoff of the late 7o's 80's comic book with a new look and attitude. The Titans fight their most frearsome foes including the ruthless slade who is The Titans arch nemises.Don't forget to check out season 2 & 3 on dvd and also the Teen Titans Movie Trouble in Tokyo and other Titan films."
103913,2,The Best there is,"I got my blank in the mail along with a sheet of griptape that came with it. I thought this was the black magic griptape but I was horribly mistaken. The griptape which I first put on my board was made of glue which would not adhere to the board and could be easily pulled off. The free griptape I got was also very ugly though I'm not one for appearances and after I tore off my old griptape, I put on that BLACK MAGIC i couldn't believe my eyes. The black magic adhered perfectly to the board and had the ideal grip which every skater wants. I am quite satisfied with black magic."
103955,2,...is testimony to the humanity of Judaism's wisest rabbis,"This book is easy to pick up, turn to any page, and read something that can resonate inside you. It helped me to understand that being Jewish is deeply spiritual - and every day of Jewish life is a rich yet gentle experience. It was at once accessible and long-lasting. I'm going to buy copies for my friends and family. An excellent book, one that should be carried with people as they go through their daily routine"
104004,2,Simple Pleasures,"I thought this was an ok game. The graphics are not the best but it is similair to Zelda. You walk around solving little puzzles and in the end solve the final puzzle. The game is not difficult but interesting if you like to be able to solve the puzzles with not much effort. There are thirteen levels and three different worlds (desert, snow and forest). You can beat one level in about 2 hours. You can also find a map to guide you in your quest."
104082,2,"The Sins of Cinema: The Burning Moon [Intervision Picture Corp, DVD] Review","""By using a device that most people recorded their honeymoon sextape with, Ittenbach creates a film that bashes your face in, stomps your ribs, castrates you with rusted scissors, rapes your senses and pisses on your soul. You will never see another movie that delivers the gore like Burning Moon. This is one of the few SoV movies out there that has an audience beyond fans of super low budget horror or VHS collecting. It's a genuinely solid film that uses gore for humor and intensity. If there's one horror movie you watch this year, it needs to be The Burning Moon. 10/10""Read the full review at http://sinsofcinema.com/Reviews/Burning-Moon-Review.php"
104106,2,"A very touching, charming story for adults and children.","Robert Skead's debut novel effort is a touching story of forgiveness, loyalty and what's truly important in the world. ""Safe at Home"" is an intriguing mystery, but more than that, it is a story that all of us can relate to--disappointing the people who mean the most to us, but realizing we are more important to them than the mistake we made. The story combines wit, creativity and a slice-of-life feel to tell the story of Trevor Mitchell, a boy who loses a $50,000 baseball card. You'll never guess who did it in this twist and turn mystery. I would highly recommend this excellent book to anyone."
104121,2,Buy this CD and Dance to it!,"Musical purity is just wonderful for those who are into that. There is only one question that really matters: does it make you want to tap your foot, to dance? Does this music make you FEEL something? YES!!This is their best in a long time. It has a lot of the fun they deliver in a live concert. Glad to have you back guys! They are a great feel-good band with a lot of soul."
104127,2,Fascinating book,"This is a remarkably insightful book. It shows from historical and exegetical considerations that the Book of Revelation was written under the Roman Emperor Nero (about 66 A.D.). And that it was written about the destruction of Jerusalem (70 A.D.) and the collapse of Nero (A.D. 67). It is well written, scholarly, and persuasive. See other reviews below for details."
104202,2,Take a blender...,"... toss in Duncan Sheik for soft sensitivity, Dave Matthews for pure, fearless ambience, and you have reasonably something close to John Mayer... but he is very much his own guy. A couple of my friends have been telling me for months to check him out... and, paranoid me, thinking he would be a potential boy-band swooner with a guitar, I didn't give him a chance until I saw him perform at the Grammys. And now, I've all but worn out this disc. Every song is nothing short of amazing... all simple yet pensive, and incredibly easy to listen to. I can't wait to hear more from this guy!"
104204,2,"if you're tired of what they say is ""cool""....","I bought this album after seeing john Mayer on conan O'Brian. He sang ""No such thing"" and i just loved it. It was something new and he had really great energy. I'm glad i got the cd, even though i don't have the version with 3x5. The music isn't new but it is done well..and the lyrics, for the most part, are very good. A couple of songs are a little cheesy ( city love and st. patrick's day to be exact) but even they are better than most music on mtv or the radio. Basically if you are a teen like me, and are tired of boy bands and pop diva-wannabes, then you just might like John Mayer. He isnt' terribly original, but he does it right."
104222,2,My Favorite Watch,"This has become my favorite watch!!! I wasn't sure when i ordered it but when it came in, I realized it goes with everything. The only downfall I found is that you will have to make more holes in the band if you have a small wrist. Mine is average sized and I am on the last one. Absolutely beautiful though!!"
104272,2,Love this boy,"Patrick Dempsey is one of my favorite actors. When I saw this movie and read what it was about, it was abit confusing. Once you watch it you will understand it all. This is an amazing movie, very good and exciting."
104316,2,Dynasty (dinastija),i ordered the 1 - 3 season packand i wrote my opinion therethey just dont make soaps like dynasty anymore :(hope paramount will hurry with other seasons ...season 1 by foxpacking is not great (paper pack)but its ok (will get damaged with more use thow)the 4 discs are double sidedthere are some extrasthe picture q is 10/10 superbsound as welli say paramount pack from s 2 to 3 is betterbut thats my opinion :)
104325,2,"Finally acquiring a copy of ""A Distant Trumpet""","This movie was filmed in the Gallup, New Mexico area back in the early 1960's. It was really a low budget, and poor rendition of Paul Horgan's book by the same name. As a result, it never became popular, or ""classic"" enough to be offered through video catalogs.Since I am one of the cavalrymen, I have always wanted to get a copy of the film. For years, everywhere I tried to find a copy, either video or DVD, I was unsuccessful.That is until Amazon.com is now providing copies of films through its Archive Collection.This is a wonderful new service, and I hope collectors of old movies take full advantage of it!Also, it took only a week, or so, for delivery of my order, and I can, after all these years, watch myself charging over the hills against the Apaches!Martin Link"
104343,2,Bloom rocks,"I got a Bloom a couple of days ago, she rocks. I also got a stella but her extra outfit doesn`t match. I love Bloom`s red wavey hair just don`t wash it because it FRIZZES. A good thing about Bloom is you can mix and match her outfits too."
104430,2,Professionalism review,Book was very useful in providing resource to helping me build a education activity on professionlism.
104455,2,One to read,"I totally enjoyed this book. It was an easy read with a good story. It is about a couple that divorced after the heartache of a missing child. Daisy can't stay where she lost her son and James will not leave because he is always keeping a watch for his return. When their daughter (who was living with Daisy) runs away across country to James, Daisy comes to wait for her daughters safe arrival. This is a touching story to show the power of faith and love."
104503,2,HTS 2600 MKII PowerCenter,Excellent product and the audio quality improved so much. Even my wife can tell the difference. Only problem I had is my speakers are powered and there is not enough hi-current plugs to fix my two speakers and the receiver. I strongly recommend this product.
104549,2,Wake up and smell the coffee world because....,"...our generation is more important than most people realize yet. This book blew me away. The details are different but the story might as well be about what has happened in my life lately. I also was at the end of the world and now I am back - the same but different. For those who are still stuck in the small shallow meanness of today's ""normal"" society...laugh now...but you will one day soon be faced with the same choice - what will you decide? Thank You Douglas Coupland for writing this book...it confirms that I am not alone in my transformation."
104635,2,"Excellent SYFY. Not a ""B"" grade SYFY. Check this one Out!!","Discovered by accident and no idea how I missed it when released in theaters or on DVD. Never heard of it and what a great surprise. High quality product values, special effects, SYFY. Nothing starling new that forces deep thought afterwards but still worth a look. I liked it."
104723,2,Season 7 was Great!,"I loved season 7, just as much as I loved the other seasons. I just wish there were more episodes. I can't wait for the Inuyasha the Final Act english dub. If you think Inuyasha is over after season 7, just wait, because there is more to come. I love Inuyasha and want more and the animation in this season has improved from the first season. If you're an Inuyasha fan, you'll enjoy this season."
104756,2,Great,I read this book when I was 19 and it changed my life and way of thinking. I am now 30 and still refer back to it.
104775,2,A Welcome Reissue/Expansion,"This album is essentially a deluxe reissue of Doc and Merle's Pickin' the Blues (1985). Rounding out the tracks from that album are four choice cuts from Red Rockin' Chair (1981) and three fine instrumentals from Doc and Merle's Guitar Album (1983). Also included is a nice, but non-definitive, live rendition of ""Deep River Blues"" from The Festival Tapes / Tellulive (1979). This is a great sampling of the material Doc and Merle recorded for Flying Fish Records before Merle's untimely death on October 23, 1985. For those new to Doc's music, I would suggest exploring Doc's Vanguard recordings (On Stage, Southbound, Home Again, Ballads From Deep Gap) before you venture into this material. For those already familiar with Doc's early work and are looking for a good sampler of Doc and Merle's stint with Flying Fish, this is the best you're going to do."
104890,2,Great Fairy tale book,"This has got to be my favorite books of all time. Many fairy tale characters come to life in these pages, in ways I have never read before. More for adolescents and adults, rather than small children. Highly recommended."
104897,2,Elvis and a Great collection of his movies!,"I've always enjoyed seeing Elvis movies every so often and here is a superb collection. The conversion of the movies to DVD was good and seemed without any flaws. Each movie is pressed onto it's own individual DVD. 2 DVD movies per case, 4 cases and 8 movies. The velvet outer case is a nice touch.You can't go wrong with this collection. I wish they had another version with some of his other movies. After looking over all of the movies made by Elvis I didn't really realize he was churning them out that fast! I chose this collection too, because it has been many years that I have seen ANY of these movies from this collection."
104936,2,Suncast golf organizer,"Really sturdy, nice looking and worth the money.I dinged it one star for the following reasons:- Mesh; It was very slightly damaged in 2-3 areas.- Assembly; parts weren't completely and clearly labeled, and this made it a little difficult to put together.- Total assembly time was about an hour."
104967,2,Duty and Honour,"I didn't know much about the story this film is based on before I watched it, so two things stand out for me: the relationship between Doc Holliday and Wyatt Earp, and the gunfight itself. Burt Lancaster and especially Kirk Douglas do an excellent job of portraying the low key relationship that gradually develops between the two men, unlikely allies that learn to trust each other. The famed gunfight itself is well staged and executed, with tension slowly built leading up to it, and with the explosiveness one would expect once it is underway. This film shows the fine line between lawlessness and control that existed in the Old West, as well as the code of honour that each man had. It's well done."
105000,2,Thumbs up for Alaska!,"I got the CD late last year and I can only recommend buying it! It's melancholic and happy and rocks!I'm from Germany and it's a pity this CD isn't out over here, it's like... exactly what's missing!Have a listen and then go and get it :-)"
105070,2,Thanks for the good start,Thanks for the great service and the fast shipping. I will be ordering more soon!
105076,2,pope joan,Although lacking any scientific evidence the book presents a very interesting scenario that shows numerous clues for its authenticity.The fact that the catholic church denies all references to Joan makes the subject all the more intriguing.I'd have no problem recommending it for a read
105143,2,One of the BEST BOOKS of 2001 !!!,"An exquisite collection of new black & white photographs from renown British photographer John Healy, this is stirring testimony to both the beauty of the black male nude as well as the incredible power of fine art portraiture. Healy has crafted such potent imagery here that one feels completely lifted from the premise that they are viewing a book and instead feel transported to another stratosphere where light and form and mood command total attention of one's consciousness. The technical refinement of each image is obvious but what really sets this work apart is the masterful way that Healy poses his subjects. They grace each page totally and utterly possessing it."
105155,2,"Simple, cheap and effective.","That's one chemistry that makes you a better living. Liquid tests are always more precise than strips and, when it comes to pH, probes. However, I always found it a hassle to have to run two pH tests with standard API master kit, as they have separate reagents for low and high pH. This one gives great color scale from 5.0 to 9.0, only 5 drops, and has a very reasonable price. I haven't used my pH probe in months now."
105159,2,5 stars is not enough!,"Chicago singer-songwriter-guitarist Ralph Covert tops himself with each release. In this fabulous family rock 'n' roll album, Covert's sophisticated instrumentals are a wow to adult ears and his strikingly original and deftly crafted lyrics about tango-dancing bears, cavemen, a banana-seat bike and glue disasters go right to the heart -- and funnybone -- of childhood.The rockin' tracks are nothing if not eclectic -- they include arrangements of ""I Go Pogo,"" from a 1948 album based on cartoonist Walt Kelly's characters, and a goofy 1930s novelty song, ""I Never See Maggie Alone."""
105261,2,Influenced masterpiece,"I dont think you Americans realise what an impact this album had on British society, fashion, culture and even Tony Blair. Noel's undoubted talent in songwriting and coming up with catchy heavy riffs that could match a lot of high quality records.Oasis stumbled at the next album however, in my opinion because they didn't change their tune, they had no Sgt Peppers, Led Zepp III etc etc.They stuck with the same ingrediants without even mixing them.At the time this was the best record for a very very long time, then came the Bends however, but thats another story......"
105391,2,Intriguing to the Beginner in Economics,"Those familiar with some philosophy and knowledgeable to economics will enjoy this book. This book I found, not only interesting explores the concept of 'justice' as we see it and 'justice' as it is.Economic theory is very omnipresent in this work, but more than creating his own economic theorems, Sowell goes out and obliterates every factual basis for economic leftism, totally proving it doesn't work.All in all, the book is good for everyone except the novice to politics, who probably won't understand some of the bigger pictures involved."
105430,2,Sailor Moon,"Sailor moon is great in any form... the only problem is mixx has killed the names! I mean how could they make Makoto Lita? It's just not fair! Well at least they made Usaigi Bunny... Its closer to her Jap. name than ""Serena"". >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( Well if you can't read Jap. than you might want to get the Mixx Sailor Moon Manga... even if they did mess up the names ^_^"
105438,2,Practical and easy-to-implement organizing tips!,"Williams' book is filled with organizing tips that are not only practical, but are also easy for any busy family to implement into their households. And after following her suggestions in the chapter on office management, I found working space in my writing area, I did not think even existed! Priscilla Y. Huff, author of 101 Best Home-Business Success Secrets and HerVenture.com<pyhuff@hotmail.com>."
105481,2,"good idea, good execution","A worthy buy in the long run for the money you'll save on batteries, plus the battery packs last a long time. The cables are nice and long too."
105500,2,Brian's voice is devine @}->---,"Brian McKnight has a gorgeous soulful sound to it and he's amazing. He can make you weak in the knees with not only his voice, but the lyrics too. He's the best. I love Crazy Love, Anytime and of cource Back At One. Love Of My Life is excellent - there is hardly a bad song on here. Back At One would have to be the song that made him a little more well known, and the fantastic duet Love Is with Vanessa Williams, but true RnB lovers have had the pleasure of listening to him croon for some time now. He's in my top 10 of male singers. I wish he'd bring out another new cd. It's only been about a year, but I need a new fix from this talented, heavenly singer."
105512,2,EXCELLENT PARAFFIN BATH,"REVLON MoistureStay Fast Heat Up Luxury Paraffin Bath RVS1212EASY TO USE, FAST WARM-UP, TEMPERATURE CONTROL,LIGHTWEIGHT AND EASY TO MOVE, PRICE POINT PERFECT."
105520,2,Best ps2 game ever,"God of War 2 has the best playstation 2 graphics ever and it is set in ancient Greece. It seems like you are playing a next gen. game but really a ps2 one. The cutscenes and even when you are playing seems like it is of movie quality. The combat system is really unique in the way you kill your enemies. Like when you fight a cyclopse and it is worn down, you will climb up it and rip out its eye. You can also twist off a medusas head. The sound of God of War 2 is just as amazing as the graphics. There is also a bonus disc that has a lot of special features like deleted levels, the making of, and the actors doing their voice overs, as well as interviews. Overall this a really great action/adventure/fantasy game."
105572,2,these seem a little better than they are,"the little plastic wings that let these hang on your ears hurt your ears if you aren't wearing the headphones behind the neck. also, there is no padding on the head band part, and considering the weight of these things, it does put pressure on your skull after a while. i definitely like them better than regular headphones with the foam cover over a hard plastic part, but i probably would have been better off with the regular big ear-cup headphones, even if they do look a little overkill for working at my desk."
105583,2,Generally a Great Book,"Patriots vividly brings to life the men behind the Amerucan Revolution. It deals in depth with the causes behind the war, but it's only drawback would have to be the way in which Langguth quickly wrapped up the war by spending only about a hundred and fifty pages on the years between the Declaration of Independence and the British defeat at Yorktown. All in all though, Patriots is an excellent book."
105608,2,"Not Phony, But Fiona.","I love this cd so much. When I listen to it, it makes me feel relaxed (but not depressed!). She has so much real meaning to the songs, none of them are phony songs about how she wants to get with some guy because he's fine. And she's not what people say she is, she speaks her mind and it speaks the truth. This is the first album I have ever owned where I love every song."
105610,2,What a Deal,Four Decades of Song is a 3 CD Box set that is price so low that it seems like a steal. I thought for that price how could I go wrong and I was right the quality of the CD is great and the songs WOW! Shirley sure can belt them out. One of the nice things about this CD box set besides the outstanding value is the selection of songs it has many songs which I have been unable to find on CD before. I have been listening to these CD at work everyday for the last 5 months and still love hearing it. You can never go wrong if you like Bassey and this Box set proves it once again. Get it and I think you will love it also.
105652,2,An Excellent Read,"This is the first book I've ever read by Paul Cook and I was very surprised by the quality of the writing and by the novel's plot structure. At first, I thought the book was going to be a typical adventure story, but it quickly took off in its own direction. And the ending completely surprised the hell out of me! I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to read a well-plotted, well-written SF novel with all kinds of new concepts and interesting characters."
105671,2,Mind Gems,"If you can get past his thick language, Emerson is a gem. He mind is both quick and deep, and therefore is enduring. You start seeing common things in an uncommon way. He is a poet-philosopher par excellence.This selection provides sampling of Emerson's over-all thought. Keep in mind that he is part of the Transcendentalist movement, which was part of the broader religious revival in the mid 1800's. This is the era of Emerson, Thoreau, Dwight L. Moody, Robert Owen and Joseph Smith. You can feel the energy crackling off pages of this book. There is something about this time period that rushed upward.His essays on ""Self-Reliance"" and ""Experience"" are must for all adolescents. We need to cut the teeth of our mind on other people. We need to learn form Emerson, and be better for it.The genius of the format is that provide the print without any frills, unctuous commentary, or boring exposition. This book is all meat, which is really what we want."
105742,2,Completely original and ahead of its time...,"The second-worst selling album in Columbia history (behind a yoga record) is one of the most original rock records you'll ever hear. It's hip, virtuosic, funny, rockin' and has a freshness that still holds up 30+ years after the fact.I was given a vinyl copy of this in the late 80s as a gift. I had never heard of these guys and was quite intrigued with all of the artwork and the song titles. I sort of groaned at the length of the songs, some running 17 minutes, and thought this was probably another out-dated psych/ Dead-type jam record. Upon my first listen I was changed. The songs all have tons of character and narritives that are labourous and everything is surprisingly listenable, even with different sections and interludes and time signature changes, etc.I would recommend this to anyone searching for something truly original. It's a great record, not just a novelty item infamous for its commercial underachievements."
105797,2,Fun family game for long car trips,"I almost forgot I have this game, but I do. It's a fun harmless game good for game nights or family car trips, as long as the person driving doesn't read the questions (wink!).Simple concept. Answer the question before getting the raspberry. You can go in turns and have others try to guess if the first person is wrong. Questions seems to be of average difficulty, like top to middle-of-the-board Jeopardy clues. Since you need to hear the razz, this game would not be good for noisy places. Other than that, a nice fun trivia game.Fundex has other fun games, like One Word, Chairs and the new game Privacy. Check those out as well."
105807,2,sounds alot like early DRI seriously but more metal,this cd sounds like dri during the deal with it/crossover days very old school tone but hardcore /metal crossover again.
105823,2,Explians what and why your dog does what he does.,This book was recommended to me by my dog trainer. It was very helpful in explianing my dog's silent ( body) language. It is written in a nonscientific form and was easy to read and reference. I would suggest this book for anyone that has a dog or is going to get one.
105848,2,This is her best CD ever!,"This is a wonderful CD! I loved ""It's All Coming Back to Me Now"", I was crying during ""Fly"", and my favorite was ""Call the Man""! The true beauty really comes out in this CD. If you like Celine Dion you have to own it!"
105857,2,Life Is Peachy - If You're Listening To Korn!,"This CD (Korn's second) was thrown together relatively quickly. Songs such as ""Chi"" and ""Good God"" were written while Korn was still touring for their first album. This ""thrown together"" feel is not a bad thing, however. It creates a positive ""chaos"" that is felt throughout the CD. The tracks are fast (average length of around 3 minutes) hard and angry, which is just the way it should be! Highlights on the CD include the aforementioned ""Good God,"" the crazy and unintelligible ""Twist,"" the short but very cool cover of ""Lowrider"" and another emotional closing song ""Kill You."" All in all, a solid follow up from the pioneers of the ""NU-Metal"" revolution!"
105884,2,This film works best as a rainy-day appetizer,"This is a artsy, stylized movie, full of quirky humor and subtle satire. If you love ""The Princess Bride"" and/or ""O! Brother, Where Art Thou?"", then you will understand this film. The characterization of personality archetypes (in English, he makes fun of odd people that we all know) is what sticks the most with me, along with Elvis signing Blue Moon and the large moonrise on the ocean.It has enough adventure in it so that it is not strictly a chick flick, but it strikes a nice balance. I think this is the first paring-up of Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan.This film works best as a rainy-day appetizer, with hot cocoa and summer sausage. I recommend seeing it between 3:30 and 5:45 at the latest."
105955,2,On the road to Tarmon Getten .,"Although slow , it was well written . I expect that when Matt blows the horn of Valere that Moraine will re appear in one of the next books , Daggers was ok for now ............."
106041,2,authentic surf sounds from the 60's,"the two Richie Allen albums are finally available on CD! Recorded in '62 and '63, they are the real thing, authentic surf sounds from SoCal. The band includes such L.A. studio luminaries such as Plas Johnson on sax, Sandy Nelson on drunms, and Tommy Tedesco on guitar, as well as Richie Allen (Podolar). This is the real thing, folks, get this one as well as The Rising Surf!"
106045,2,"Excellent, Fun, and Educational","We have had this game for about 6 months and it continues to be a favorite. I homeschool my 8 year old and we play Scrambled States for a break time activity nearly every day. Both my 7 and 8 year old enjoy the game. We have modified the rules to play cooperatively (this really helps if one child is a better reader or if a grown up is playing). If you have a match you get to count it but only one state card per clue. If we have a tie on a ""go the distance"" card we draw off the state stack so that both players get 2 cards for their ""keep"" stack. Playing cooperatively also makes the game go twice as fast. Cooperative play also makes it easier to use the game as a teaching tool for emerging readers. I hope they will make a ""Scrambled Countries"" version soon."
106058,2,i really do dream f Jeannie,I ordedthis series because i loved to sit down with my mother when i was younger and watch this show. The dvd packaging is a really good idea (shaped as Jeannie's bottle). To my suprise when they showed this on tv i still didn't see all of the episodes so some of them gave me a great suprise. If you like Bewitched then you will love I Dream Of Jeannie.
106101,2,"The Latest, The Greatest","This was Brandy's best album. You'll absolutely love the first 13 tracks. The only weak tracks are 14 & 15, Come a little closer & Love wouldn't count me out. They both are very light and almost thrown together(especially 15). 17, however just wasn't for me.This is a great album and there's a song on here for everyone. Some songs will tantalize your senses while others tug at your heart strings. This is also a very innovative album with sounds and rhythms not heard before. Brandy merges and mixes genres beautifully. While some songs were a little too forceful(3,9,10),this album is still definitely worth your money.Brandy has really become a woman with this piece with a noticable improvement in range and staying power. This album is a little techno, r&b;, and pop. A great buy for anyone who appreciates great music."
106143,2,Great for children,"This is a very cute ""couch"" for kids and a great addition to our play room. It came with the pillows in the picture which was a nice bonus. The quality seems good and it has already held up to a lot of use by a toddle and pre-schooler!"
106168,2,awesome!,this book is so good :) ! so was the first one. i cant belive boy 412 was actually septimus heap! and he diddnt even know it.
106263,2,another head banga,"k here's tha deal, you know red a meth always been droppin hot shiot since day one but this one bout to take em to another level. these 2 cats bout to rip up the hip hop industry again and probably take it to a way ""higher"" level. it should be illegal for these 2 guys to work together anymore cuz it makes it so unfair for everyone else in the industry, these guys just got some serious chemistry and they show it again on this album.... buy it, even if you wasn't a fan b4 you will be now"
106307,2,LOVE IT!!,Purchased this game for my 5 year old son. He is not very interested but my older children 20 & 21 love it! We played for hours several times. Very fun game.
106319,2,Enough,"Working class waitress Slim finds her life transformed when she marries wealthy contractor Mitch. She settles into an idyllic suburban life and seems to have everything she wants: loving husband, beautiful home, and Gracie, an adorable 5-year-old daughter. Her dream is shattered when she discovers her husband is anything but perfect. His abusive behavior forces her to go on the run, eluding an increasingly obsessive Mitch and his lethal henchmen. When, despite Slim's efforts to make a new life, Mitch finds her and threatens her again, she puts Gracie in safe keeping, toughens herself mentally and physically and sets out to prove to Mitch she's had enough. The intense chemistry between the leading actors, really makes this movie work. The message in this movie, is that everyone has a limit."
106331,2,Convenient,"It keeps my windshield clear during the rain, sometimes even not need using the blades. The only thing I don't like is it seems wiper contents too much fluid, and quite difficult to get them applied evenly on the wondshield. Leaves messy traces, sometimes even not able to see through the windshield clearly. (esp. at night)"
106334,2,The Cost,i got this by chance when a video game store was going out of sale and paid only 9.99 for it which i see now is a steal i was thinking of getting the compilation but since it has some bad reviews im just gonna keep the ones i have although it does have some problems with windows and DOS going back and forth but i really just got it for KQ7 my faaaaaaaaaave out of all of them...i miss those games..i really do...
106423,2,SO MUCH BETTER THAN NIRVANA,"I seen this on Mtv....these guys were so much better than the highly overated kurt Cobain and Nirvana. There is just no comparison between Jerry Cantrell's songwriting/guitar playing skills and Cobain's. Cobain may have invented this genera of music, but AIC took it to the next level, especially Cantrell. This is one of their best albums."
106474,2,functional 3-prong cord,"This 3-prong cord works well. Each of the three plugs have a latch to close the plug when it's not in use. I plugged in a computer, radio and lamp at the same time and it works.However, 2-prong cords can only be inserted halfway, but the connection is functional."
106531,2,"Basically, I loved it.","This is the first book I read by Robert Ludlum, although some doubts have been raised as to the quantity of his contribution the covert one series. Not having the background of a Ludlum-fan, and not caring too much about whether the story could have actually happened, I found it to be quite the page turner. During one chapter I could actually feel my heart pounding from the excitement. That must be a credit to the authors."
106561,2,Weather Alert Radio,This radio certainly does its job well. It wakes me up in the morning with music and sends weather alerts for my specific county when issued. The alerts are loud enough to get you up and moving if you need to. There's no distinction in the audio alarm between warning and watch it's LOUD for both.
106599,2,Save the Last Dance,"It is a great movie. Julia Stiles is a wonderful actress, and she plays the part very well."
106651,2,Pretty Good Read,"Janet Evanovich is a great Author. I was disappointed in this Christmas book, however. It seemed that she had rushed to meet the deadline or something. Just not as good as all the others. I did however enjoy reading another book from one of my favorite authors."
106709,2,Blu-Ray Edition Really Elevates This Film,"When this came out on DVD, I gave it another shot, after not being too impressed with the VHS the first time. Wow, what a difference!, Now, the Blu-Ray is out and now the film has taken another giant leap. It makes the other versions look primitive.On its own - and I'm not a horror movie buff - I found it to be very entertaining and very suspenseful film. Those visuals are so good that I didn't mind the slow pace. Jack Nicholson was perfect for the role. Shelley Duvall was fascinating with her ""Olive Oyl"" face, smile and soft voice. She got panned by a lot of people, and that was unfair. She's fine. The kid (Danny Lloyd) was good, too, as were the supporting players.If you are any kind of a fan of this film, or director Stanley Kubrick's unique style of filmmaking, you owe it to yourself to look at it on this high-definition transfer. You'll be amazed how great it looks."
106711,2,Book goes first,"Maybe I rated the movie ""4 stars"" only because I read the book first. I imagined things a little different, including the characters. But given the complexity of King's original story (all the tension being built through the characters' thoughts), I think Kubrick did his best with the movie. I just suggest though, to horror fans, read the book first, then watch the movie.In any case, Nicholson's performance was great. ""The Shining"" is a must have!"
106761,2,wonderfully rememberable,I have watched this movie over and over (since i own it on tape) and love it. The portrayl of Amish life is very close to actual Amish life. The drama and forbidden love between Book and Rachel is memorable.
106763,2,beautifully done,"this is one of the most beautifully photographed books on the the subjects of haunted places.The British locales shown in black and white,as well as the stories documenting the haunted places make this a great book for your collection as well as a coffeetable book.This is 120+ pages of delight be it in portrayal of haunted England or the beauty of the English countryside and stately manors."
106784,2,Best Nature Stikes back Movie,"I remember seeing ""FROGS"" in a theatre when I was 12.I was HORRIFIED but in heaven at the same time""go figure'..Creatures of any kind have always horrified me and this movie has every creature in the book attacking people.Frogs, snakes, lizards,spiders,huge turtles,alligators,roaches""FAINT"".. Plus creatures I have never even seen before and that's crazy as I live in the creature capital of the world""Florida"".As a matter of fact that's where it was filmed..EEKIt stars Sam Elliott Joan Van Ark and Ray Milland.If your squeamish about mother natures less desirable creatures I either suggest you don't see it or highly suggest you do, after all it ""IS"" a horror movieand the purpose is to be scared~!!!"
106801,2,A great follow up to Smash!!,"This is the last of true Offspring, though americana and Conspiricy of one have some good songs they don't compare to smash and this one. Ignition is pretty consistent, but I didn't really like their self titled first album. The Best songs on the album are 7. Gone away(the best offspring song!!), 11. way down the line, 13. Amazed, 14. change the world, 4. Me and My old lady, and 2. The Meaning of life. the rest is just filler, but good filler. No album they make will ever compare with Smash but this one is damn close."
106836,2,An outstanding Guitar,"I had been surprised for the quality of this guitar. I had been playing guitars for 25 years, when I saw the Agile 2000 in the net, I was a kind of sceptical but after I received it and started using it, I'm playing on every night since I got it!!!. Sound, finishing and beauty of the guitar are very nice. Also the price is going up so it is a good investment as well. I got it 6 months ago and I'm thinking to buy other versions of Agile near future."
106906,2,Argentina represent.,An artist from start to fin.Juan Jimenez is an illustrator of high quality with high precision work in the details referred to as as is shown by this great book will always be analog better than any digital tool.Recommended
106957,2,Brett Leonard does it again,"No less than the Lanwmower man again, but far more funny and powerful due to the perfect team Washington/Crowe. Even if the plot is thin ice, the story is so entertaining you must forget the basic idea (an android unleashed from from a computer strikes !)is not that well used. These 2 wonderful actors just seem to have a big time and so are you. Buy it and you'll never get Sid 6.7 out of your mind."
107094,2,Great literature...about Detroit!,"In addition to what many, many others have written, I would recommend this book not only because it is an exceptional novel about immigration, adolescence, societal transformation, and medical anomoly--but also because it is also the only novel I have ever read that has treated the city of Detroit with real interest, knowledge, and affection.Having grown up in a Detroit suburb and now living far away, this book has awakened a recognition of where I am from. This book is about working-class immigrants and their children and grandchildren. It feels wonderfully familiar.I listened to the unabridged audiobook version read very well by Kristoffer Tabori. He does an excellent job, although he does mispronounce Gratiot. :)I highly recommend this book, especially for those who have a connection to Detroit."
107226,2,Good read,Fun!Read this book in a day and a half. Really enjoyed the characters and story line. Easy read and some great lines.
107281,2,Best 90's ambient compilation,"I've been searching for this for over 4 years. I had the cd back in 95 but sold it so I could buy some vinyl. What a mistake that was, these tracks have haunted me for s years as I struggled to remember the cds name. All I knew was the cover art, black with a white butterfly. I'm very happy to have this back in my life!"
107285,2,THIS TOTALY RULZ!!!!,"don't be put off by only 1 song IT'S 18 MINS AND 21 SECS OK? It's an amazing song with a great message and covers nofx at their best. Also the cd itself rules it's got the little boy and the disk itselt is clear, it rocks."
107299,2,Pleased with this purchase,"Mounted this can crusher on my first floor patio area... Crushed a garbage can full of cans effectively reducing the volume of the cans making them ready for turn in to the scarp yard. Overall, I am pleased with this item."
107305,2,Does the job!,"I've used this can crusher for several months, and it is holding up well and doing a good job. The previous unit I owned, which I purchased at Bed Bath & Beyond,the metal arms became bent and the unit was unusable after only a few weeks use. This unit has a much more sturdy design and is easy to operate. I would definitely recommend it."
107337,2,notes on the china study,As an ex dairy farmer it is disappointing to think you spent most of your life poisoning people.A real revolutionary book which every one should read.An eye opener.
107357,2,BEST BOOK ON SELLING STARTING IN YOUR MIND,"After being in just about every type of sales field there is, and reading many books over 20+ years, I haven't found one that consolidates the science and art of selling like this one does. The author documents case studies of the techniques successfully used for left brain people who are skeptical. And the right brain readers, who know visualization techniques work, will learn how to use them properly for the best outcome. I have never found another sales book that puts the principles of using both sides of your brain for successful selling into a practical and proveable format like this one. It's a book any sales pro will return to read over their career!"
107408,2,You can always count on the Counting Crows!,"When I first heard Hanginaround on the radio I knew I had to get this latest effort by the Crows, even though I hadn't heard any of the other songs on the disc. I was not disappointed. Mrs. Potter's Lullaby and St. Robinson In His Cadillac Dream are outstanding works. There isn't a bad cut on the disc, including the hidden cut after St. Robinson. You have to wait about 4 minutes for it, but wait, it is worth it! I like this disc better than Recovering the Sattelites and August and Everything After. Can't wait for their next disc!"
107431,2,Growing the Spirit,"Can't wait to jump into this one. Love what I read so far and I know I'll love the rest. Can't wait to do all the meditations and finish the book. I'm hoping by the end of this book, and combined with other teachings form other books, I'll be able to do a lot of miraculous, spiritual and supernatural things."
107483,2,Awesome...,"I had become enamored with Vai's playing with David Lee Roth and Alcatrazz, after my Van Halen musical youth, and Satriani adolescence. I actually got into a meditative, attentive state for the first listen of P&W, hearing advanced notices of its greatness. My expectations were dwarfed, as I became a man that day (music-sensibility-wise). My head was spinning for days. The imagination and creativity, communicated with staggering chopsmanship easily ranks this CD with the top all-time rock instrumental CDs that came before it. Hendrix would be proud."
107493,2,One of my very FAVORITE books of all time,"Intriguing, moving, fascinating, and very scary. Provides insight regarding the infiltration of Marxism into the inner core of our nation's institutions. You will have a whole new appreciation for Nixon, and gratitude for Chambers."
107508,2,Harry Potter Costume,Shopping with Amazon was a great experience! Website is easy to navigate including checkout. Item was shipped promptly and arrived in good condition. A+
107518,2,Travel John-the BEST!,"This product gets 5 PLUS stars!!! We camp a lot with our scout troop and most sites have no restroom. To be able to stay in your tent, when it is freezing outside, in private and with such ease is the best! I have tried MANY other products and this one is superior. I will never get anything else."
107549,2,works well,I bought this to replace a cheap radio shack soldering iron. I almost bought the step up from this but am glad i didn't spend the extra money think this will work just fine for any type of motherboard repairs i need to do. Only wish it came with more tips it only comes with one and is not meant for precision work.
107550,2,excellent!!,this does the job of a professional soldering iron. I was using it to do rework on a computer logic board. it works great.
107592,2,Joe rocks again,"Once again, Mr Satriani shows why he is a guitar teacher as well as performer. Every track has licks you wish you could go back and listen to in slow motion-a hundred times. I can see him schooling the younger guys that have come in the last ten to twenty years-Vai, Shepherd-and showing them the way (which they have done successfully as well) to make the instrument sing-to make the instrument so very listenable. Having seen the G3 tour a couple of times, I marvel at the way these songs are reproduced live sometimes more than the way they are done in the studio. The album is a must have for any guitar enthusiast."
107678,2,One of the best,"I have both read the book, watched the mini series, and own the DVD and the old VHS for this title (which I have watched multiple times)...Does that give you any idea how I feel about it?A very well done story about the rise of an Irish orphaned child immigrant and his rise to wealth and power using any means possible. Although never acknowledged, rumor has it was losely based on the rise of Joseph Kennedy Sr., however that is only rumor, but you can definately see similarities.Very long series, you need hours to watch it, but it is worth it. The acting was great. Be sure to read the book also, you'll enjoy it."
107688,2,"Great sexual tension, annoying ending.","This book started out great. My palms were sweating by the second or third page. I got swept up in the mystery and the romance between Sarah and Jake. My only problem was the ending. Not only was it far-fetched, but it felt like the author was going for the tear-jerker ending scene. But if you like Robards and you like steamy love scenes, give it a try."
107758,2,Pale Rider,"Although Pale Rider is one of my favourite Clint Eastwood movies, I have to admit that it could have been much better. As in The Outlaw Josey Wales and High Plains Drifter, for example, we have a protagonist who is haunted by a past injustice, an injustice which he strives to rectify through the barrell of a gun. Unfortunately, in Pale Rider, the score between Stockburn and Preacher is much too vague, and so instead of adding to mystery, the viewer is left somewhat baffled. Over all, though, the movie is still very good, and definitely entertaining."
107770,2,Has hardly left my CD player since I bought it...,"This is the first Switchfoot CD I have purchased (although I did have a couple of their songs on some multiple-artist promo CD I got a few years ago). It was the rare CD that I had purchased purely on word of mouth, but I have really enjoyed it. ""More to Live"" definitely opens up the disc with a great guitar hook and high energy. Other songs have some variety in form/style, but I have always appreciated a band that doesn't use the same formula on every song. Vocals on a couple of songs remind me of Toad the Wet Sprocket's vocalist. Vocals on others are more like other modern-rock bands, although this is definitely NOT a ""Christian band trying to sound like other popular bands"" CD. Plenty of originality in the music and lyrics. One of the best modern rock buys I have made recently."
107807,2,never give up,I love this song I songed it at my graduation. hearing this song gives me hope and faith.I love how she sounded on there!
107849,2,The Bear,"What a great movie, very well done.I've watched this movie a lot with my daughter. I can't say enough about it. Larry Streeter"
107885,2,Great Series,"This is one of the best series I have read in a long time, make sure you get the updated version."
107944,2,"64-bit cpu, ready for tomorrow, real graphics chipset","I was looking to buy a Pentium 4 notebook with a large (15.4) LCD screen in ""wxga"" (widescreen) format, but when I found this one.... I think I don't need to keep looking any further.eMachines was an independent company, now owned by Gateway. They always made great machines based on AMD processors, and this seems to be no exception.The 64-bit Athlon64 cpu delivers roughly the same power as a 3.2 Ghz P4, and not only that, it can run today's 32-bit applications as well as tomorrow's Windows for AMD64 (currently in beta) and today's 64-bit SUSE Linux 9.1 (which includes a fully ported 64 bit kernel).The video chipset is a ""real"" one, using dedicated video memory instead of ""shared ram"".The screen seems lovely for DVD playback, and the HD space is enough even for splitting in two and installing XP + Linux in a dual-boot configuration.Good-bye P4 notebooks..."
107952,2,"good novel, bad history","While enjoying this read, there is a glaring historical blunder. There were no elections for US senators in1902. They were apointed by the state legislature. The 17th amendment did not pass until 1913. This does not ruin the fun of reading this mystery. It just adds a new one. Just what were the editors thinking?"
107992,2,Quick and easy,"Perfect for the fan of quick and easy cooking. Try different things besides cheese and chicken, be creative pb & j for instance."
108035,2,Reverance for Life,"This is a remarkable book in so far as it brings a much greater depth to Schweitzer than one might get without it. While Schweitzer has many insightful things to write, how he writes and what he says about himself conveys quite a lot. I think the figure of Albert Schweitzer has become cliched over the decades. Reading how he saw the world is time well spent and shows how shallow cliches can be."
108042,2,The Penny,"We bought a Find It game for our daughter and then found ourselves slowly going crazy. :o) We had it for a couple years and we were not able to find the penny until...we figured out the trick. We tested our technique on several Find It games and we always found the penny within seconds/minutes. If you want to know how to find it, go to that one site that has lots of videos...you know the one... YouT*** and search ""Find It Game - How to find the elusive penny"" All your pain will go away :o)"
108054,2,Easy to work into your lifestyle,"This tape while on the short side and not overly challenging, works great for me. I'm able to get in an energizing workout before heading to work without getting up much earlier than I normally do. While you don't get all the calorie burning benefits of a longer workout, I will definitely be able to do this tape more often than some of the longer ones and pick up the intensity as I improve. This is a great companion to her other fat burning tapes(I have one of her older ones and intend to purchase 2 of her newer ones). I will rotate this in for variety or use it on the days when I just don't have time for the 50 minute to 1hr workouts."
108060,2,It's out of common! and it's great!,"An happy blend of techno and cuban music! What an idea. Don't be affraid, listen to it. It is an alternate way to enjoy techno, it is an alternate way to enjoy cuban music. Music to dance on. Say goodbye to commercial supposed latin music, like Ricky Martin or Enrique Eglesias or all the so bad midley of these short time success... To go out of the path, in the techno and in the music to dance on, try this album."
108062,2,Financial Peace: Revisited,"Great Advice. Great Book. For those people who whine and complain about accepting advice from someone who drives a Jag and makes loads of money......guess what?....I'd rather listen to his advice, follow his method than to follow someone who is strapped with debt and can't figure out how to manage the man in the mirror. He's done it, he's lost it and he found it again. Enough said!"
108172,2,Great Iron setup,"This is a great iron. I used to have a Radio Shack iron that was bulky and always got dirty. Having this setup with the temperature control and built-in sponge will save you lots of hassle.I've only had it for about 2 weeks, but I've used it for about 10 hours at least. Get the extra tips and the desoldering wick if you are planning a serious project. (I was changing out LEDs in 5 exit signs so I had to remove them and put new ones in. The bigger tips work well for desoldering, the little tips work great for installing small items)I see no need to get a more expensive model..."
108183,2,Ernie Is Full Of Laughs,"To my knowledge, this is the first collection from Bud Grace's excellent comic strip 'Ernie' (now known as 'The Piranha Club'). Not done in the typical comic strip book style of publishing all comic strips from a certain time period, this book is divided into chaptered segments containing some of Bud's favorite earlier work. A must have for any Ernie fan!"
108195,2,Review of The Secret World of Arrietty,"Overall another excellent movie from Studio Ghibli. A creative and heart-warming re-telling of the Borrower story. Beautifully animation/cinematography brings the Borrowers tiny world to rich life. However, good or bad, just went it seems to start, it ends. You really want to see more! Again, good or bad, there are a number of characters very similar to previous Ghibli movies."
108216,2,A Good Compilation!,"This singles compilation covers Manfred Mann's HMV years; with Paul Jones as their lead-singer. All British A-sides, except the first two, are included - recordings from 1965-66. Most B-sides are here too, some of which have only rarely been included ( ""John Hardy"" and ""What Am I Doing Wrong"" ) on compilations. Moreover a good handful of EP-only songs can be found.The early Manfreds were a funny mixture of pure pop, r&b; and jazz. Some of these tracks sound pretty dated today, but their best singles like ""If You Gotta Go"", ""Pretty Flamingo"" and ""Do Wah Diddy Diddy"" still are great listening. Among the B-sides the Folkish ""John Hardy"" is quite enjoyable.Among the EP-tracks ""The One in the Middle"" with its great melody and self-irony stand out.A good complilation."
108251,2,Classic Piece of Music,"This CD is an outstanding piece of Classic Music that is a treasure to anyone, anywhere. It took me 3 years to find itand lo & behold I found it on Amazon. Many Thanks."
108268,2,whole series in one place,I like to have the whole series in once place. It's very efficiently packaged and everything you'd expect from a TV series and a little more. I didn't expect commentary from the director which was nice for some of the more unique episodes like Hush. If you liked the series it's a good investment.
108357,2,"DON'T WORRY, BE HAPPY",1975. Written (with Jean Aurenche) and directed by Bertrand Tavernier. Four French Academy awards in 1976. Superb production design for a picture of the Régence of Philippe d'Orléans. Noiret and Rochefort are sublime. One may perhaps regret the overmuch revolutionary mood of certain scenes or dialogs but 1975 was not so far away from 1968 so don't be too harsh with Bertrand Tavernier.
108375,2,Great sequel!,"Great movie--good story line. While you don't see as much of Tommy Lee Jones as you did in the first movie, Will Smith does a bang up job and his partner is unexpectedly good as well. We'll watch this one over and over."
108389,2,Hysterical Roller Coaster Ride.,"Neil Simon sends us all along for the ride in this ""on target"" spoof of what can happen to just plain folks from Ohio when they come to New York( by way of Boston)Incidently,at one time this film had the airplane hi jack scene cut for TV. The scene with John Brown in the dining car is an absolute gas.. "" We have clam juice but its not cold."" One can only imagine what warm clam juice on a train might taste like. The the final insult "" crackers and olives""It never stops ..when a manhole cover hits the street you think you have seen it all...you haven,t"
108451,2,Voces Romanticas,Canciones de amor al compas de dos guitarras y un requinto muy especial que nos traen recuerdos de lo que el hombre siente por una mujer.
108463,2,Extremely pleased to own!,"I like this book very much. It makes me want to start on a new doll immediately. The photos and instructions are great. And even though the dolls are somewhat similar, I am thoroughly pleased with the, at times, subtle differences and have found myself just looking thru the pages for merely the joy of it."
108514,2,Great book....BUT.......,Love the book....HOWEVER the book ends around 85%. Then it gives you the first chapter of book 2 and 3. DO NOT read the first chapter of book 3 b/c it will ruin the ending of book 2. Well not totally but you can figure out what happens before reading book 2. It is a great series and recommend.
108523,2,Wonderfull look intot he world of Native American Literature,"I was assigned this book as part of a Native American Studies course at California State University Sonoma. I read virtually every poem in this book and went on to read some of the books that this book used excerpts from. My prof. was one of the authors in the book. The poems apart from being good literature were a wonderfull way to gain an insight into how a modern native american views his or her world. The poems speak of schools, gov. problems, conflict of tradition and modern life, and much more, giving a look into a world post people only have a stereotyped view of. If you are interested in poetry this is an excelent book and will be even more enticing if you are interested in Native American Culture as seen by them."
108562,2,Jeffery Combs is great,Jeff Combs is one of the greatest Cult actors up to date. this movie just proves my point.
108647,2,it's worth the try.,we bought the 3-pack to try out the quality. So it's not a big investment and we can try the tone. We bought strength 2-0 and they can last very long.
108713,2,Great Book!,"My Year of Meats is the satirical story of Jane Takagi-Little, a Japanese-American documentarian and starvingartist living in New York when she gets the call from Tokyo to work on a new TV show, My American Wife! which each week chronicles the life of a typical American wife. The show, sponsored by BEEFEX is show in Japan to promote the consumption of meat by Japanese families. Akiko Ueno, who's husband ""John"" works for BEEFEX, is a typical Japanese housewife trying to get pregnant and please John.I really liked this book and found it very funny, but also very informative in it's look at the meat industry. However, there were a lot of boring parts and the story tended to move along and then stop for awhile. Also, rarely were both Akiko and Jane in the middle of something interesting at the same time; I fould myself struggling to get through one woman's part of the story just to get to the more interesting part that followed.Still, a very good book! I hope to see more from Ruth L. Ozeki."
108743,2,M.U.T. award (most useful tool),this is a great tool to own i give the MUT award. its a very handy tool for someone who cant afford an impact wrench. and its made in the USA
108744,2,GREAT PRODUCT,"I used the work platform for the first time to clean out a gutter on our garage. It's always been hard to clean out this gutter. I'm not very tall and I have to do alot of reaching and, normally, have to concentrate on balancing on the rungs of a ladder. The work platform for the Little Giant was great. I was able to stand on the work platform, both feet firmly planted, as I cleaned what was in front of me and to the sides. When I had to reach out a little way I didn't feel like I was going to lose my balance on the rung of a ladder because I had alot of support underneath me. This is a great product. If you get a Little Giant this is a must-have accessory."
108774,2,Jet Li redeems himself,"Yes this is a tribute to Bruce Lee's movie, but soon people will overlook that and realize that Jet is the next Bruce Lee. The story in this movie was excellent, of course the fight scene are great, The picture quality in this movie is really not that great, but the voice overs are very believable."
108890,2,Lomanco power vent attic fan motor,"The price was great and it was shipped in a timely manner. What more can I say. It's an attic fan motor. I hooked it up, and it worked."
108945,2,Good Music,"I really enjoyed this album. I was in High School when my Mom got it and I pretty much stole it from her. I think the stories presented in the lyrics are something that women can relate to very much and though it is sort of the ""adult contemporary/soft rock"" that many folks may feel is a bit sappy, I think this is good music."
108949,2,Encore un excellent album !,"En un mot, excellent !! Les Cousins Québecois nous ont encore pondu un bon album.Avec quelques futurs tubes en puissance, tels que ""8 secondes"", ""Les Etoiles filantes"", ""Plus rien""...Un album que j'écoute avec nostalgie, qui donne envie de repartir en vacances en ""Belle Province"".Les groupes Franais feraient bien de s'inspirer de ce super groupe."
108985,2,best collection,this album illustrates the bands excellent use of the mid 80s keyboard mixed with strong gituars. plus memoriable lyrics. one of the fine examples of pop music in the 1980 era
109056,2,Love it!,This is a hilarious movie and full of lessons! A must see! I think anything Tyler Perry is great so I definitely recommend this movie.
109143,2,silk breif,very comfortable and sizing is accurate! Much more comfortable than cotton or poly blend. Plan on buying more.
109197,2,easy to use,"I bought the Flip earlier this year, and played around with it but nothing serious. Had family Christmas, and used a lot to film grandkids opening presents, etc. Was so easy to use, upload to PC, and burn CD's for all the kids. Very pleased for an old technology challenged guy."
109203,2,Awsome!,"Got this for my son in college. Now I get frequent photos and videos, cuz it's soooooo easy to use and plugs right into his Mac computer!!!"
109264,2,He is the Man!,"I listen to Michael every day. Seriously! I come home after 10 hours of workday, and want to just wind down! He does that for me. I have several CD's and have downloaded countless artist's music, but I always place Michael's in my player.He is truly one of the best....I especially love his Vintage CD."
109282,2,"great price, fast shipping","Book arrived quicker than expected. Described as ""like new"" although one corner of the book was crumpled a bit. Would recommend seller."
109299,2,Gandalf - self-titled (Sundazed),"Originally released in 1968, as this was the obscure psych pop band's only actual lp. Sundazed has lots of cool releases like this one, where they reissue on CD - some completely unheard of band from many daze gone by. Like what I'm hearing here - especially tunes like their Tim Hardin's (another little-known artist) cover ""Hang On To A Dream"", the catchy ""Scarlet Ribbons"", ""Can You Travel In The Dark Alone"", ""Me About You"" and ""I Watch The Moon"". Line-up: Peter Sando - guitar & vocals, Bob Muller - bass & vocals, Frank Hubach - keyboards and Dave Bauer - drums. Might appeal to fans of The Millennium, Sagittarius, the Byrds and Left Banke and quite possibly The Zombies."
109304,2,Love this book!!,"I just wish there were pictures for all the tarts. I have made the treacle, flamiche, chocolate apricot, Simon Hopkinson's chocolate, lemon (so many times the page is sticky!!), tart tartin, apricot, mjuk toscakaka and tomato saffron. I love making them! The recipes are all delicious (so far) and come out beautifully. It's a very beautiful book. My favorites are the lemon and the chocolate apricot. Next up is the banana!! Or maybe the blue cheese with red onion marmalade....Yummmmm!"
109336,2,sangoku,wahou dragon ball always has been the best cartoon i've watch when i was a kid. i've collect all seven box. it was wonderfull to see them al over and the box sets are beautiful
109338,2,Pokemon Blue Version,One of the greatest video games ever made! Always great to go back to an original game and play it for hours on end. Just as good the fifth time through as the first!
109353,2,"Acceptable sound, strong performance","My disc was not defective. But while ""Little Pixie"" played fine, it does fade out before the end, so the band never reaches its full climax. Oh, well. Still an important document."
109383,2,I BOUGHT TWO!!!,"An outstanding showcase of brilliant songwriting abilities, beautiful talent, and a remarkable friendship. The decision to re-release these recordings after the death of a friend must have been an agonizing one for Eva's former band mates. To be able to give for the delight of other's is an unprecedented show of love and compassion to Eva Cassidy Fans everywhere. We will appreciate these original recordings, just as Eva was proud to record them when she first started her recording debut. We all will thank you in our show of support when we buy our copy(s) A must have - INDEED!"
109421,2,Perry Mason Season 2 Vol 2,Perry Mason is one of the great court room dramas of television. Raymond Burr is the man and in this volume Perry Continues to seek justice for his clients. Highly recommended.
109551,2,Perfect,The book was described as it was received. The purchase was delievered on a timely basis and it came on time. No problems at all. I would purchase again.
109568,2,HIm RULES,"Anyone who has listened to this music would know that Him Rules.This band has proven that they are more than just a Goth Band, their music reaches audiences far and near. I will be the first to admit i became a fan after hearing the music on Viva La Bam but thats not a bad thing.I have all their cd's and i have seen them in concert and they are a great band that has alot of talent. I liked every song on each of their cd's and was not disappointed. I hate when people say that they suck its obvious that they are narrow minded and didnt really even listen to the music at all. I say to anyone thinking of buying this cd or any other HIM cd .. do it because you will love it!!!!Lp"
109573,2,HIM IS SOOO AWESOME!!,"OMG!! I BOUGHT THIS ALBUM AND I LOVE IT! I AM A HUGE HIM FAN AND WELL THIS WAS THE ONLY ONE I WAS MISSING! ITS KICKS SOOO MUCH REAR END! HIS INFERNAL MAJESTY IS THE GREATEST, I THINK, BAND ON THIS ENTIRE PLANET!"
109575,2,Magical Love Metal,"Every song is a masterpiece, it gives me chills. A beautiful album from a beautiful band, possibly the most addictive CD in the universe. Once you listen you won't be able to stop...it will change your life for the better, BUY IT NOW!!"
109691,2,Why can't more concert videos be like this?,"I join the long list of reviewers who give this 5 stars. I've had this dvd for 8 months and still watch it over and over. It's as close to a perfect concert dvd as there is. Nothing else really even comes close. Even if you didn't like Ms. Krall, you'd have to give it 5 stars just for the photography alone! A true work of art. You cannot film a concert any better than this. This should be the standard by which all concert videos are made (we wish). She is captivating on stage, reminiscent of Peggy Lee. As far as the music goes, she sings great, looks great, piano playing is first rate, backup musicians exceptional, and song selection fantastic. I've run out of superlatives. Add 5 stars for the music and you got a 10 star rating here folks!"
109744,2,Christopher Lambert was AWESOME!,"The overall acting was good by all, especially Lambert. The script failed to provide a connection to the original script, which I thought was a bit lame. It could have been so easy to provide a reasonable plot for another final confrontation, but the idiots that wrote the script must have had their head in thier rearend. After you get beyond that shortcoming, the movie is actually good. Christoper Lambert, as expected, made the picture. He's one of the best sword fighters in the film industry. He's good with a blade. I'll add this one to my collection. For me, it's a keeper."
109783,2,This is AWESOME!,"Many people think that the greatest CDs are the ones that recieve the most publicity. 4eva after is a jewel among the ashes. The lyrics touched my heart. It is definetly for young people like myself, but that makes no difference. :)"
109792,2,A MUST SEE,"Kudos to Pierre Rehov on such an outstanding movie! This is the story that the media has refused to tell us about suicide bombing. It is shocking to see what lies radical Islam teaches its folllowers about the west, about women and about Jews. Even more shocking was their prohibition against sex to young potential candidates for suicide bombing. It is amazing to see the way this prohibition is worked into motivate the followers to commit acts of terror. This film is a must see for any citizen of the free world who has a conscience."
109917,2,"Good,Good,Good!","This CD is great,but not as great as the other 2. Here are my ratings:1.Someday My Prince Will Come 2/5 It stank to high heaven! 2.Under the Sea 4/5 The A* TEENS are cool! 3.You'll be in my Heart 5/5 Excellent version! 4.When you wish upon a star 1/5 Just like track 1! 5.Colors of the Wind 3/5 Half 'n' half. 6.I wanna be like you 4/5 Love the jungle book! 7.Part of your world 3/5 May I say again,half 'n' half. 8.I just can't wait to be king 5/5 Love the remix! 9.Can you feel the love tonight? 5/5 It's wonderful! 10.Hakuna Matata 5/5 Great to get up and dance to! 11.The Tiki Tiki Tiki Room 4/5 If you were in Hawaii,bring this song! 12.Beauty and the Beast 5/5 Jump5's version was better then the original! 13.Kiss the girl 0/5 2 thumbs way,way down! 14.Reflection 5/5 Since the singer is from Pennsylvania,the song is 5/5. 15.Circle of Life 1/5 Hated it!"
109950,2,The true nuts and bolts of TODAYS windsurfing.,"I've reviewed DVDs, books and magazines as I move into the windsurfing arena and none of the materials compare with the solid basic information provided in Mr. Burnholt's book."
109960,2,Three good essays for the Dutch Art novice or scholar.,"Perhaps the best thing about the three essays published in this exhibition catalogue is their readability. You don't need to be a student of the History of art to appreciate and understand them. However, they are by no means dumbed-down either. The images chosen for the exhibition are truely lovely. There are genre scenes, sea scapes, still lives (both floral and breakfast images), church interiors, and potraits. It is a wonderful little gem."
109967,2,good mop,"Good mop, I would purchase again. It is very easy to ring out the water and makes mopping much easier."
110037,2,Best Basic PDA,"Bought two of these (from Amazon) with the hard case, for my wife & myself. Earlier had 2 Psion 5mx but my wife never liked her Psion as they were too bulky & complex. She loves the palmPros:+ Right price+ Great OS & software bundle+ Great screenCons:- Battery Life & not replaceable- Crashes Sometime- Could do with a voice recorderRecomendation: if you buy this PDA, add in the hard case, as my Palm E is still alive and looks new thanks to the case."
110063,2,Great!!!,Purchased for my girlfirend at the time for X-Mas. The only thing was I ordered it the first week of December and it was delayed until March. Other than that she is really happy with it and has sense moved up to the Fire that I bought for her birthday.
110120,2,Serious Readers,"I love my Kindle, mainly for the convenience of purchasing a new book within seconds....I'm a very fast reader and am always needing another book to read. The price seems rather high, but we have to pay for what we want, I guess. The ""back button"" on the bottom right is annoying because I accidently press it often and it takes me back to home rather than back a page...but all in all I am thrilled to have my Kindle. The Oprah discount was very appreciated!"
110127,2,kindle,"I love this new ""gadget""! It's great to travel with as it is lightweight and compact and stores so much. It's also great on the treadmill as there are no pages to turn and I can make the text larger which makes it easier for me to follow as I walk. The books load in just a couple seconds - literally. I wish it had a built in backlight for the screen if needed. You also lose the ability to exchange books with friends once you have read them which is always a fun thing. Overall I think it's great!"
110186,2,Stock/Shipping to APO/AE Address,"I had no idea this was coming out on the 19th. I've spent the last couple of days reading the reviews especially those here with hands-on experience with the product, and reluctantly (because of the price) ordered my kindle. I was quite disappointed it won't be shipped until the 29th after my vaction ends here in the USA. Because Amazon won't ship to an overseas Armed Forces (APO/AE) address (thumbs down to Amazon) I'll acquire more charges (having family forwarding to me) and time waiting for it.I understand initially I won't be able to take advantage of the wireless ordering, but I'll still be able to buy online and transfer.I give it a 4 based on the reviews I've read and like many here I've been waiting for a device like this especially from Amazon whom I've ordered many books from."
110255,2,Mind Blowing DTS Sound !!,"Watching this movie in DTS 6.1 surround sound is truly an amazing experience. I already had a single DISC edition of this movie, butwhen two-disc edition was released, I couldn't resist myself andadded it to my collection."
110289,2,Movie shows one simple idea,"I didn't find a massively deep message in the movie like so many other reviews on here. What I did find was one simple idea;Doing the right thing in a wrong society does not work. So either learn to do wrong so you can be successful in a wrong society or else push it all the way and start a freaking war to try and right the wrong society. Either way your morals are going to be compromised in a society gone very wrong.This movie is kind of in the same realm as 'Falling Down', except this movie is humorous and not serious."
110333,2,"This film is ""must see""","I am now a hard-core Lasse Hallstrom fan. ""Chocolat"" and ""Cider House Rules"" were both top-notch films and anyone who appreciated these two films will love ""Shipping News."" Like ""Cider"" the new film is riveting -- it meanders in completely unpredictable directons, arriving at quite believable and endlessly fascinating destinations. While watching, I was continually struck by the thought ""Man, this is a VERY GOOD film.""No one can quibble with the wonderful choice of settings, sometimes lush, sometimes stark, always captivating and believable. The acting is across-the-board excellent. Cate Blanchett will astonish you! Julianne Moore is completely breath-taking and never misses a beat. Kevin Spacey is remarkable, as usual. There are also innumerable supporting cast members, all of whom are quite effective.This film cannot be overlooked for Best Picture nomination! I do not argue with those who rate the film five stars. I am very stingy with handing out five stars...."
110354,2,Tenenbaumtastic,"This movie is absolutely wonderful, if you are a Wes Anderson fan this will tickle you. If you have never had the pleasure of experiencing his work, now is your chance. Definitely one of my favorite movies of all time."
110355,2,if i could give it 10 stars,"This may not be my favorite movie ever, but if its not then my favorite is no better. This film is beautiful, not only in its comedy but in its truthful tone hidden beneath the slight absurdity. I really can't say anything other than if you like wes anderson films, or anything even loosly associated with it then go now and watch it twice."
110361,2,great all around watch,"I really like this watch, a nice one, very light with the Ti; not a major name brand (but you save hundreds (or thousands).It's also a good midrange size, if you don't have huge wrists and arms to fit some of the giant watches out there.Overall, a nice quality swiss watch you can wear for work, out or for sport."
110377,2,I Wish This Show Was Longer,"This is my young nephew's newest favorite show. ""Newest"" in the sense that he had never seen this show on tv before. I love it that this show existed and I can show my nephew what I watched when I was younger!"
110456,2,Good DVD,"This was shipped quickly and in good shape. I've always loved Denise Austin's instruction and encouragement. I wish I would have known the workout uses a band, but even doing it without the band seemed to work. She mixed in yoga for stretching and did a total body workout."
110468,2,Surprisingly Excellent Movie,"Lovely Angie Harmon and and dashing Sheen has great rapport throughout the movie, making you care for each situation and hoping they make out for the best in the end."
110474,2,Such a clear picture!,"Wow! when I got the Yellow Pokemon Bundle Pack, I was so amazedat the clear pictures, it's so much clearer than other game boy colorconsols. And the console is a cool two-tone yellow and blue with cute pics of Pikachu, Jigglypuff and Togepi on the side screen. And on top of that Pokemon Yellow is AWESOME! The story line is the same as red and blue, but there are some surprises here and there. Most obviously, it has a cute intro with pikachu, and cute Pikachu sounds throughout the game. You start out with Pikachu and he follows you around and does cute things when you talk to it. Best of all is that Team Rocket makes a couple of apperances as well. All of the characters are redone and look a lot better than red and blue, and on top of it all its easier to get Squirtle, Bulbasaur, and Charmander all in one game! This is definately a good tide over until Pokemon Gold and Silver (English Version) come out for Game Boy!"
110502,2,The watcher in the woods,"It was very spooky and A little scary,It starts out an american family is looking for A house to rent,and locates A house owned by an old woman played by BETTY DAVIS not telling them the strange happens around the place."
110566,2,"Nude home videos, how could you go wrong!","This DVD is just what my girlfriend and I where looking for. Real, good looking, and no fake actors makes this title that much better. I have had a hard time trying to track down an amateur video that the quality is clear and that it wasn't made on dad's old beta video camera. Hey let me know if there is anything else like this out there! The reason I have given it a 4 star is when ever the sceen was close to a croch shot, they would cut away even on their own produced stuff. Make it real, it is what it is, but make it a must see!"
110584,2,3D draws you in,"watched on Vudu in 3D and thoroughly enjoyed the adventure. In 2D it would have been a let down, but 3D draws you in. Who says good 3D doesnt help a so-so 2D movie ?"
110610,2,"Even after third read, this book still amazes.","There are only a few book I've read more than once but this one is at the top of that list. Although I know the ending, it doesn't take away from the intensity of the story. Mary Ingles is a true example of what we can endure if we keep our focus. Her struggle is hard to imagine but she perseveres, returns home, and lives another 60 years. Great history. Great adventure."
110670,2,"Charming, if a little raw","This is a very charming story about a person trying to go after the dream of becoming an actor. A story heard before but told in a very true sense and the many comedic pitfalls that befall someone pursuing this goal. Kelly looked very pretty, but I agree in one of the other reviews that Lou Myers stole the show as Half-Step Wilson. A cute independent film."
110690,2,Hey Pisano ...,"I saw this movie on television and enjoyed it.Danny Aiello is a Great actor and the plot was very catchy.As a matter of fact,once this DVD arrived I kept it in the player and watched it quit often.Alot of different things going on at the same time.I will say that if it were not for Aiello being in this movie I would have let it go but He starred in it and I enjoyed it.A little bit Italian,a little bit Cosa Nostra and a little bit Sausage and Peppers ... Enjoy this Movie !!!"
110788,2,Easy to use,"My wife pushed to get this pasta maker over the cheaper ones, I am glad she did. We used it about 4 times now and it is easy to use and you can feel that is well made. We went out shopping and I could see another pasta maker on sale for about $30, and I spun the crank to test it and it felt so cheap! So I am glad we went with the Marcato Atlas one, even it was a bit more."
110818,2,Chili Peppers' California Love,"The Red Hot Chili Peppers; those clowns who gave a whole new use for the sock, recorded in a haunted house to create one of the 90's best albums BloodSugarSexMagik, and have continued their success with the big comeback 1999's Californication, spawning hits left and right. Now, By The Way follows up that huge success with even stronger material. The title track is now inescapable, and theres tons of radio hits on here you'll soon be hearing. Get ready. The Chili Peppers are still red hot."
110824,2,The Brand New Chili Peppers!!!,"Does anyone else chuckle when others refer to the 91 and 95 albums as ""Old Chili Peppers""? The 1987 record is my favorite. I guess that's what I get for being 31. As has been stated, this is a great album. Lots of melody, hooks, and ""singing"". It's apparent that the 1980's Pepper's have left the building. BUT, times change and we all grow up. RHCP's have the same right to change their sound as U2 and others have. It should tell you something that Amazon is trying to sell this with a ""Dave Matthews"" album, and not one from ""Bad Brains"" or ""311"". Anyway, regardless of when you came into the Chili Peppers career, you'll most likely enjoy this. It's good."
110893,2,RHCP have grown up,"This is the Peppers' best album since the genious ""Blood Sugar Sex Magic"" was out. And the line-up is the same again. And once again you hear a lot of quality songs in Peppers' specific funky style. What differs this record is that it never gets as mindlessly funny, as BSSM sometimes got. I think, that's because with age band-members became more serious persons, and more professional with their instruments and composing skills. Most songs are slower, mellower and more aimed inwards, to the soul. This is a nice relaxing album, with some depth to the tracks. It just lacks the spark of perfection that BSSM had plentiful, but still is a good purchase. Many nice melodies will surely please you.Yet, if you want your music energetic and funny, you're probably best heading to the Peppers' starting albums."
110932,2,An Amazing Connection!,"I received Shade of the Maple Friday and read the Prologue...I was hooked and unable to put it down. WOW!! It is a beautiful and captivating true love story!! I felt like I was part of their world. Kirk Martin has a real gift for creating a connection between the characters and his readers. I was anxious to finish but at the same time never wanted it to end. I miss Evan and Anna already! I cried a mix of happy and sad tears.Saturday, I told all my friends to read it...and I ordered a copy of The Gravel Drive. I can't wait for my signed copy to appear in my mailbox!"
111020,2,Tijuana Weekend!,"As an owner of all four Surf Punks albums, I still enjoy popping out my now 20 year old cassettes and getting that 1982 feel. Each album is fantastic. Locals Only....my favorite. Shut up and buy it."
111027,2,"Awesome, thrilling movie","Praises to Tim Robbins and Jeff Bridges for a spectacular performance in the movie. Once again, Robbins steals the stage with his excellent acting abilities. It is nice and refreshing to see Hollywood directing a movie which is so realistic and ""close to home""-- something which all of us are capable of experiencing-- the uncomfortable feeling of not knowing who one's neighbor is. This movie shows that an individual cannot trust anybody. From here, a moral can be reaped-- as was stated in Robert Frost's poem, ""The Wall,"" one should build a wall and not cross it."
111039,2,really renews my belief in love,this book is amazing. i stumbled upon it in the bookstore and it was the last copy on display. i picked it up and thumbed through it and i was hooked. i'd never heard of the authors and this book. unfortunately i think we give a lot of credit to authors who get on major television shows and some authors that have good stuff to say don't ever get the credit they deserve....back to the book...it's a great book the chapters are short and sweet (but not too short) and as other reviewers have mentioned the couple has lots of experience as therapists and a real married couple. i plan to suggest to my boyfriend that we read a couple of chapters an evening and discuss them. i really like the concepts in the book and think if you're in a serious relationship leading to marriage you owe it to yourself to get this. i suspect if you're already married you can still benefit too!
111063,2,Wow...very comprehensive!,"This book was recommended for my daughter by her saxophone instructor. I've looked through the book extensively (it's a rather large book), and I'm amazed (yes, I have a background in music). If a dedicated sax player works through this book and follows the practice recommendations, they would be a great player at the completion of this work.It may be a little overwhelming to some students when they look through it, but my daughter is always looking for a challenge. For this type of student, I believe this is a great book.I can also see this work as an invaluable tool for the instructor. No wonder it's been around since it's first publishing in 1908! Great works truly withstand the test of time!"
111242,2,THE ONLY LOTION I USE ON MY CHILDREN,I cannot rave enough about this product. The lotion isn't greasy but still seems to keep her skin moisturized all day. The scent is the best part. I love it so much. I use this everyday on my little one and I get a ton of compliments on how 'clean' she smells. I even use it for myself occasionally. If you are looking for a great shower gift this is it! I always give the newborn starter kit. It is always a hit. The products are so gentle which is a nice change from the horrible J&J products.
111324,2,Warm for the price!,Warm for the price but does not hold well if rained on. Down starts to poke out of the fabric after a couple of years
111411,2,Best book ever on recruit training!,"Far better than ""Boot"" by Daniel DaCruz. The negative comments by ex-Army soldiers seems to be an inferiority complex. Only criticism: the use of ""sergeant"" to refer to anyone E-5 and above. We address NCOs and Staff NCOs by their proper rank. Excellent work!"
111445,2,Read Suspicion First,"This book has the same two characters as Suspicion, Kate Logan and Mitch Calhoon. I would recommend reading that one first. Kate Logan an attorney is asked to represent Todd Buchanan, a man being sought for the death of his wife Molly. The problem with this is that Molly was the sister of Mitch, Kate's boyfriend. It all started with two people agreeing to meet in person after they first meet in an internet chat room."
111498,2,A really fun Spanish flick!,"I just happened upon this movie at the library and decided to give it a shot not knowing what to expect beforehand. Within the first 20 minutes I was hooked. We go from scam to scam, watching two conmen (the younger of which is the spitting image of Dave Matthews) pull off small jobs. It's later that we watch them attempt something really ambitious -- a ""once in a lifetime job.""The plot is great, the Spanish is also really easy to pick up since the actors speaker exceptionally clearly. That Argentinian ""jsho"" for ""yo"" is really audible :)The movie is an all around great film for most everyone. Despite the R rating, there's no violence other than a few punches to the stomach and the occassional bad language."
111541,2,Giant light in a small package,"I bought several of these for gifts and the receivers are happy. It's very well constructed and palm size. For the ladies it can be carried in the purse and makes a great light to walk to the car in a parking lot. The brightness would temp blind an attacker if the need arose.With the 21 LED's it gives off a very bright light and covers a larger area that you would expect. If you desire a small, well made, bright flashlight that you can depend on, this is the one."
111561,2,One of Stallones best,I king of liked the plot. It's not about violence like other Stallone movies. Stallone has a chance to act here. It ain't Oscar standard but mid-level. The movie is slow at the times but it's understandable. Cohen tries to make the characters grow.Picture was above average and the surround-sounds kicked @55. Rent it first so you won't get dissapointed!
111584,2,A light confection that somehow manages to stick to the ribs,"Although I read ""A Patchwork Planet"" last Spring,this book comes back to me in lightning bolts whenever I stroll Rittenhouse Square. You can't help but be right there with Barnaby throughout the book, he's that real. The ""patchwork planet quilt"" aspect of the novel made little sense, however, and I suspect that this is a case where the title was chosen first and then shoehorned into the book like a square peg into a round hole. Regardless, it's still an enjoyable read."
111617,2,"Tough Toy, but I'm a worry worrier","I bought this as a Christmas present for my 23 mth old son. He loves music! Especailly drums! Since he also loves Thomas, I thought this was a perfect gift. He loves it and enjoys it. As most kids would do, he tries to stand on it and so far, it hasn't done any damage....so I'm happy with it's durability. He liked putting it over his neck and marching around, but I just was't comfortable with the strap around his neck. I guess I just worry too much. So, I unsnapped the strap and just let him play with it on the floor. Overall, for a music and Thomas fan...this is a cute toy!"
111719,2,"soothing voice, soothing songs, satisfy sooths the soul","carrack concentates on what he does best with this soothing compilation of soul touching ballads. satisfy my soul the probable single tugs at your heartstrings while inspiring healing and an inner sence of a promising tomorrow. one an only concentrates on committment and the complete satisfaction of requited love. reach out to the one you love, cuddle next to the fire, and loose yourselves to this magical voice satisfying your souls."
111813,2,Amazing!,This cable is amazing i have the Logitech z-5500 and i bought that cable and the sound quality improved a lot i feel the sound harder and with more fidelity and is pretty but don't think is just another expensive cable. really its amazing!
111817,2,"Great album, this one will live on!","I first heard Lalah Hathaway on the Tales ablum of Marcus Miller and her voice on 'Infatuation' was so... sprankle clear, so beautiful, hard to describe. So I started wondering if there would be any solo albums of this great voice. Now I have both albums in my collection I must say that she rebuilded my concept of music. Her voice opens new worlds and the songs open new experiences every time you listen. I can just say: buy these albums and let yourself be brought elsewhere on the waves of this voice... The world will never be the same."
111823,2,broccoli sprouts,"Thisorder was processed and arrived promtly.the germination rate was excellent. i 'd recommend this product to all customers...I am glad i did not buy any special equipment for sprouting...After watching on youtube a few videos, I used a glass wide mouth jar and it worked wonderful for me..."
111907,2,Its about time!,"What an innovative concept! How often I've found myself fishing for questions to ask the doctor and draw a blank. Now we can rest assured and carry this ""secret weapon"" to the doctor's office. I'm sure there will be lots of nurses that will be able to recommend this to family members and spend less time on the phone answering all of those usual questions. This will certainly be a stocking stuffer this Christmas. Great book!"
111916,2,Thought Forms,"A must read book! It explains how powerful our thoughts really are and the effects they have on others. This book help me to understand why I have and ""instant"" like or dislike to individuals"
112015,2,GPS Mount,"My boyfriend recommended this mount for my Garmin GPS. I previously had the mount that goes on the window, and it interferred with the view out the windshield. This particular mount is wonderul. The GPS stays put on the dash wherever I put it, even when I had to stop VERY suddenly when a fool who was trying to pass 3 cars coming towards me on Rt 17 almost hit me head on. Everything else in the front went sliding forward, but the garmin stayed put. A very good product."
112065,2,Works great for us!,"As owners of 4 vehicles, this was a great option for us. It stays in place and can be moved from car to car easily. It has never slipped under any circumstances. Good price too."
112075,2,"Fantastic fidelity, excellent performances..","Anyone who's seen these guys play knows that the show will be tight, and that the recording will be as clean as technology permits. At first glance, it's hard to get excited about the song selection, but give your glancers a rest and open your ears. ""Tom Sawyer"", ""Freewill"", and ""The Trees"" all sound quite new on this disc, even though all three can be heard on ""Exit...Stage Left"". I confess to being one of those Rush fans who had stopped buying Rush discs in the early 90's, because to me the music was....well, cold. This recording sounds warmer, more human. The clever mix of audience sound with the songs makes the listener more aware of the excitement of the show."
112099,2,Great data strategy book presented from a practical perspective,I found this book extremely useful as a reminder of all the important areas to be considered in applying a data strategy to my organization. Especially useful was the chapter on logical and physical data modeling along with the many checklists presented.I recommend this book to anyone concerned about data strategy and the need to manage that most important of corporate assets.
112101,2,A Lifetime Ode To Mother Love And Sacrifice: No Daughter Left Behind,"From 2006, ""Augusta, Gone"" has an edginess in style that you might not be used to from other endeavors on the Lifetime network. Capturing the wildness of the feature film ""Thirteen"" (among dozens of others), the story is about a young girl who is descending into a life of drugs and debauchery. Mika Boorem does a good job channeling the severe angst in Augusta as she perpetually seems determined to derail her life. But the movie, as you might expect from Lifetime, is about unconditional love and redemption as well. A terrific Sharon Lawrence plays a mother who will do anything to bring her daughter to safety. ""Augusta, Gone"" may be intended as a fact based cautionary tale but I'll remember it for the distinctive lead performances. Strong and emotional stuff. KGHarris, 7/12."
112164,2,A practical introduction to the practice of magic,"This is an excellent book for both beginners and advanced practitioners. I was impressed by the clarity of thought and focus, as well as the author's definition of magic. I was also impressed by his willingness to critique Crowley's thoughts and ideas, which is always refreshing to see. The author also provides some useful exercises that can help the magician enhance his/her own practice. What is most evident from reading this book is that the author has done the work."
112168,2,Alison is an angel,"Her clear crystal voice, combined with the unique harmony of her group, casts a bright sunlight on my ride to work each day. I am probably wearing out ""Ghost in My House"" on my CD."
112208,2,A History Class for my Goddaughter,"A Little History of the World will serve as an excellent primer for my very international goddaughter, who was born in Hungary and whose parents are from Holland and Poland. I, myself, am an American who has been involved in international affairs for several decades and I wanted my goddaughter to be introduced to the most important events and personalities in world history without the cultural biases and prejudices that abound in so many so-called ""authoritative"" books.I read A Little History of the World very carefully to be sure that E.H. Gombrich's views were balanced and objective, yet entertaining. The book met all those criteria,plus it made history exciting and amusing. This book will make history accessible to my goddaughter and I hope she will enjoy reading it as much as I did."
112216,2,Works,"I got this harness to attach to a relay that I used to turn on two amplifiers in my car. I've been using it for two years and it still works. This might be dependent upon what brand relay you used, but on my relay I found it pretty difficult to get off. I pulled so hard once that the plastic cover of the relay came off."
112257,2,Dockers Oxford shoes,"I am on my feet most of the day and needed a decent pair of shoes for work. These are pretty comfortable shoes and seem like they will last a good while. I'm not sure if it is just me, but I should have probably ordered a half size smaller. Bottom line is I will order another pair when these wear out."
112263,2,NOT BAD- NOT BAD AT ALL.,I really the beats. It's a good album to listen to. I belive Todd Terry has got something in this album that can accually go somewhere!
112272,2,GREAT Book!,"I LOVED this book! I've lived a lot of it, and really connected with the author's stories! I think most women who have struggled with their weight are going to find snippets of their life in this book! Especially funny? The part about the 4 food groups, and the author's experience doing a half marathon as a big girl! I truly had tears rolling down my face (from laughter, of course!) reading these sections! Read it and see what you identify with!"
112339,2,Leadership at it's best. Functional and accurate motivation,"Governor Miller is blessed with the ability to remember what he was taught and the ability to pass it on to others. His writing spurs memories of Marine Corps training for thousands, and makes us (once again) understand why we are the Nation's best at doing what we do: Supporting, Defending, and upholding the best traditions of America. If more people read this book, and took it to heart, there would be less strife and less hatered in the country. I am an active duty Marine Commander, and I use this book as a gift to motivate and congratulate my subordinates. Find me more of this type of work..."
112435,2,Very soft and confortable.,"This shoes are very confortable, but the model I bought is too narrow for me. So, it does not keep its shape when I put in."
112514,2,A Great Collection,You want this book; and tne RDigest Treasury of Best Loved SongsYou can't beat the RD books for family and friends!
112588,2,The best disney movie ever!,"I watch the movie at the El Captian theater with my family and let me tell ya, it was the best movie I ever seen. Michael J. Fox does a great voice for Milo James Thatch, the main character of the movie, and so does the other actors as well. What's great about it is that there are no stupid animals and no singing involved, like what are the chances of Michael J. Fox and Cree Summers singing in the middle of the film, not good (No offense meant guys). Anyway, the plot was well done and the characters your just gonna love, especially the mole guy, which was the funniest character of the film. So go see the movie and see for yourself. Note that it is rated PG for violence and smoke use."
112636,2,I love every song,"I hate that when you get an album because you like one song you heard on the radio and you're gambling that the whole cd will be just as wonderful. Every song on this cd is just great, really solid, consistent quality. This album has become an instant favorite."

112761,2,Evocative Downtempo,"An odd mix of Alpha-style melancholy, sample-rich atmospherics combined with bejeweled melodies reminiscent of the Gentle people. While the rough, simple lyrics and singing at first seemed out of place, like crunchy and creamy, the contrasting textures complement each other and highlight the albums subject matter, childhood. Most of the album is well crafted and consistent, but unfortunately, the album sputters at the end, particularly with the big beat dance remix at the end.When We Were Young has spent a few weeks in my car's CD changer, and I'm not done listening to it yet. Quite a testament in the high volume world of electronic music."
112779,2,A 12-year old can handle it!,"All I have to say is my young daughter got it from me as a Christmas gift. She needed help with the first time she transferred music onto it. After that, I haven't heard a peep as to ""I don't know how to..."" do whatever with the thing. That, to someone such as myself, who is still completely challenged in the area of mp3, deserves a great rating."
112842,2,Great Movie,"Wonderful Family Entertainment!!! Be sure to watch the 1st. movie - The Black Stallion -- first.Kelly Reno, who plays 'Alec', does a fantastic job!"
112894,2,"Benezit: Must-have for art historians, dealers, collectors","The Benezit is the authority for identifying artists. A multi-volume work listing biographical sketches for thousands of European and American painters and sculpters, this series is virtually required on the shelf of all serious collectors, restorers, art historians, and antiques dealers. The work covers artists through the early decades of the 20th century and frequently includes not only biographical information (birth, death), but also awards and education. The extraordinarily comprehensive nature of the Benezit makes it the Oxford English Dictionary of the art world. A word of warning: the Benezit is written in French, so you must have some basic understanding of the language."
112951,2,great film in the Hammer tradition,"Here is a great film in the Hammer Horror tradition that`s WELL DONE WITH GOOD TASTE! Not just gory with no story or too much slash for my cash. I`m sick of graphic slasher movies. This one has blood and guts, but just enough camp and humor to let the audience know not to take it too seriously. Highly recommended in German or English on a great quality REGION 2 DVD transfer. The VHS (which I also have)doesn`t do it justice. A FEAST FOR SORE EYES!"
112974,2,He Desperately wants to make love to a school boy...,I sincerely believe that this is Jim Carrey's comic genious at its best! Filled with 'one-liners' and laughs all the way to the end! Hillarious!!
112984,2,"BIG SMILE, DANCING MOOD, HOT STAR, JUST GREAT!","Studio 54 is a place almost everyone dreams of and the fever is so contagious, it makes you wanna dance and dance and dance. Everybody can relate to the simple guy that wants to escape normal life for a change and be outragious and party! The roles are played very well by talented actors and actrices like Ryan Philipe and Salma Hayek. Just sit back, relax, get into the movie and you'll find yourself knodding your head and moving your feet and you'll be in Studio 54, and what a great experience that is!"
113009,2,Instant Astrologer Review,"I ordered this book from Amazon because I had come across it in Barnes & Noble but it was too expensive. I liked the looks of it and the software enclosed is a real bonus...so I checked out Amazon. Behold, they had it in stock and I ordered it.The book is filled with lots of good information. You don't have to be an astrologer to use it, but it helps. The software will give you a written report on two levels...Personality and Time Line...or...""what is happening now and how it might affect me"". Both are useful and well written. It is a big book with alot of well thought out, accurate delineation. I give it an A+"
113024,2,Wonderful,"If you want to be carried away by the sound of crystal clear voices singng as though the angels were calling to you, buy this album. There is nothing more to say."
113059,2,another great Filipino Gay movie,"Crisaldo Pablo is a talented director who is able to bring m2m relationships into the public eye and make you care about the characters he develops.He is able to show gay couples that have the same problems and struggles that heterosexual couples grapple with.Mr Crisaldo Pablo is able to develop interesting gay male characters that are not the stereo-type macho dancers, rent boys, or drag queens.His work is thought provoking and encourages the viewer to hope that the characters will succeed in their relationships and achieve a sense of peace and satisfaction in their lives."
113114,2,"Great book, but gets a little bit repetitive","A lot of the ideas are repeated over and over throughout different chapters. When these ideas were repeated I found myself zoning out or skimming past to try to find something new. I realize that repetition is one of the key foundations for his teachings, but too much can make one doze off. Otherwise, a GREAT book!"
113179,2,So much fun for me and for my 3 year old.,So much fun. Very easy to make perfect snowballs. Works great even with dry flaky snow that normally wouldn't hold it's shape. Even my 3 year old can make (and throw) these snowballs. And the best part is that it keeps our hands dry. Will need to buy more and keep them on hand for Christmas presents next year.
113202,2,great,"People often accept popular lies when the truth is harder to swallow. The only treatment for this is knowledge, education, and understanding."
113328,2,Nice WIDE size!,"Although it's not listed as a wide size, it is. My husband that takes a 6.5 4E fit a 7 comfortably. NO pinching or discomfort and we've gone through other brands of shoes that were ""wide"" sizes. This was great."
113342,2,the real thing,"i was a bill withers fan back from the late 70's (ok i'm dating myself) i was introduced to him when 'just the 2 of us' came out. i loved his voice so much i combed the resale shops and found the original recording of 'lean on me' in vinyl. 'grandma's hands' was one of my favorite recordings. bill withers is one of those singers who sounds as good a cappella as he does w/ grover washington jr. (the only person i think who can come close is josh white jr. - check out his album 'i can sing a rainbow') i always loved the smooth whiskey sound of his voice evident in 'lean on me', 'just the two of us', 'grandma's hands' and 'lovely day' i haven't seen the GAP commercial and really don't care to. i just will crank up my stereo and get the real thing"
113368,2,Good Value!,"Definitely a good value for the money. I like the tall compact design for keeping on the counter. I use it every day. I've had it a few weeks and it works great. Water is hot and tastes normal. My only quibble is the on/off switch seems a little on the flimsy side and I wonder how long this will hold up. I saw some other reviews that had some issues with this. I had my old electric kettle for 10yrs+, and I'm not convince how long this will last, but if I get a few years then it is well worth it at this price."
113398,2,Best Of YCDTOSA,"They're right, you can't do this on stage any more. This is the best of the amazing series. ""Yellow Snow"" is incredible. And ""Dangerous Kitchen"" takes some beating. The two versions of ""Sofa"" are so different, it gives you a feel for the genius of the guy. You'll probably also like YCDTOSA #2 (Helsinki gig) and YCDTOSA #3 (for the amazing Ike Willis foolishness, and the pastiche-and-patch ""King Kong""). But what the hell, buy them all. There will never be another Zappa, and oh, do we miss him now."
113419,2,"Funny, touching, captivating!","I recently purchased this DVD set on a whim and was absolutely captivated by it. It was funny, romantic, touching, sad, suspenseful. All the actors were magnificent, especially the 3 leads. I tried to drag it out 3 nights but found I just couldn't. I finally gave in - it was like devouring a guilty pleasure in one sitting. Surfed the web and found Reckless, the Sequel, and ordered it sent 2-day priority mail. Get them both at the same time - the sequel is just as wonderful. This series reminded me what a joy good entertainment can be."
113474,2,A dying man's last words,"If you are 'paying attention' and you feel that all you have lived your life fighting for is under attack you will enjoy KV's articulate expression of your observations. If you have been a KV fan and want to see directly into his mind without the abstract expression of his youth, this is your book. I felt sad as I read the book because it was quite clear he knew he was dying. I enjoyed this book because clearly he was a man who had lived his life by his principles. If you are mid aged and have been through a nasty divoce and want to take a beautiful KV trip into abstraction, try Blue Beard, my favorite."
113510,2,How did this go under my radar for so long? (pun intended),"WOW! This is fantastic! How did I miss this great band for so long? Part Primitive Radio Gods and part Yes. I love this stuff!I only ever knew Freur for Hey Ho, which I heard in 1991, before the internet, and then only on alternative radio stations. One the internet took off, I really should have looked them up. I didn't even notice Doot in Vanilla Sky. Where was my head? I usually look for the music in the credits. Now I'm looking for all their music.I especially like Doot Doot, My Room, All Too Much, and the Devil and Darkness.If you like Simple Minds, the Cure, Yes, PRG, Kansas, ... You'll love this."
113513,2,comfortable,"I wear them around town, for comfort. I find them very comfortable, very easy to get on and off. I don't wear them enough to comment on odor issues.When they get wet, they do take some time to dry, but there's not much to get wet anyway."
113541,2,Excellent!,Excellent book! Great help on understanding the dynamics of a step-family! Exactly what I need in my new journey. I would recommend this book to anyone that would become part of a step-family.
113567,2,"After 5+ years, still love it!","I bought this vacuum a little over 5 years ago. About a year ago it wouldn't pick up anything and I was ready to purchase a new vacuum to replace this one. Then someone mentioned changing the belt, which I had never done because I didn't know to do that unless the belt broke, so it still had it's original 4 year old belt. I bought 2 belts, put a new one on and this thing was like brand new again! I am very happy with this vacuum and intend to keep using it til it dies!"
113615,2,AWESOME,Buy this product !! it is amazing the picture is unbeleiveable if i could give this product more than 5 stars i would give it 20!! it also had all the stuff u need for playin in the car and at home!! i recommend this product to anyone who has a gamecube (the best console ever ) !! :-)
113864,2,Best Coal Chamber cd yet and amoung my favorite cds,"This cd is appropriately titled, because it is by far CC's darkest and heaviest cd yet. This is one of the best cds I currently own. Most of the songs just absolutely kick @ss, and the rest are worth listening to. Although their first release was great, this cd is better. It is amazing to listen to how much their sound has changed over the past years, much draker and heavier lyrics and guitars, and the drums are still great. They capture the sound of rob zombie, manson, earlier korn, and static x on this release. I strongly recommend this cd along with any other CC cd to ANY METAL FAN."
113867,2,Caution on included batteries,"I purchased six of these flashlights in July, 2008. I first noticed that the light was 'somewhat' dim but, not having too much experience with LED flashlights, I accepted this as 'normal'. I had the occasional reported problem with not lighting and having to shake the light or unscrew/re-screw the base to get it to work. Recently I decided to change the batteries (to a ""brand name"" battery) in all the units and what a surprise......all the lights were MUCH brighter than with the original batteries , except one, and the exception was that the acid had leaked from the batteries and ruined the contacts. My bottom line: all the 9-LED lights offered by different manufactures are probably the same, but the batteries make the difference. If you get these, throw away the included batteries and put three name brand ones in and be happy with your purchase."
113875,2,Ted Bell- Hawke,"Really enjoyed the book. This is the first in a serieswith a central character. I always describe Hawke as a"" rich Mitch Rapp"". Ted Bell writes a good thriller."
113878,2,"Not amazing, it just works","Do yourself a favor and just buy the dang thing. I went on a 2 month backpacking trip and, believe you me, I used this flashlight many a times while running through the woods/prairie/rocks to do my business. Definitely not the most powerful light out there, but I wasn't really looking for a floodlight. I wanted a dependable, durable, easy-to-carry, small flashlight with a bright-enough light and this did the job. I know other customers had problems with the build, but my flashlight never failed on me and I didn't even have to use the back-up batteries I took with me. Amazing? - nope, it is a flashlight after all. Good enough? - yup."
113918,2,Bo Bice: Magic,"I just got my Bo Bice cd single from Amazon today. This CD rocks. We have been playing it all day here. If you know Bo Bice, you'll love this cd. If you are just getting to know Bo's music, you're in for something hot.Bo is the consummate musician, performer and vocalist. This is highlighted on In Your Heaven which Bo's rich smooth vocals caress like a lover.Vehicle comes to life with Bo's growly soulful rockin' interpretation. Accompanied by Richie Sambora on guitar, the combination is magical. This song is perfect for summer as it is a song you want to turn up and jam to.I can't wait until Bo's full-length cd comes out in the fall. He is an amazingly versatile performer whose voice is unique and unmistakably his own. Bo is a true original and I feel this cd is a must-have. Bo's musical journey is one I will be eagerly following. He's a magic man."
113935,2,If you desire suspense.,"Not being much of a fiction reader, I found myself unable to put this book down. Author provided vivid descriptions and unusual character base. Couldn't read fast enough."
113971,2,A study of corruption,"Does money, great whacks of it, destroy every thing and every one it touches, even those who start with the best intentions ? The story centers around a new-comer to town, the mysterious Raffle Haw, his obvious riches and his desire to use his fortune for the good of the people. The provenance of the money is slowly revealed to the reader (you will have to smile at the science of that one !) as the consequences of Haw's philanthropy develop. Well written, nicely spaced story-line, believable caracters, this book has it all."
113984,2,Terrific Bird Feeder,"My wife bought gave me this feeder for my birthday. It took all of two days for it to arrive in perfect condition. Granted, this feeder may seem a bit pricey at first, but when you open up the box, you'll see why. Excellent construction out of quality materials that are meant to last. It can also be easily disassembled (without tools) and loaded into the dishwasher for periodic cleaning.As for being squirrel-proof, so far the pesky little devils in my neighborhood have yet to figure out how to defeat it and now seem to have given up. I've gone through many feeders over the years and this one I have to say is by far the best I've ever had. I wish I could say this feeder is made in America, but alas, it is made in China. Even so, I highly recommend it to anyone interested in purchasing a feeder that will provide years of service."
114037,2,Good once you get past the aerobics,"The curse of both this tape and its companion, FIRM Strength, is that some really good weightlifting is paired with some really lame aerobics--cha-cha-cha and all that. However, I usually mute it and run in place or do jumping jacks during those segments, so the entire workout isn't ruined."
114061,2,FANTASTIC !,"This scissor knife is unbelievable ! It works amazingly for someone with hand control problems and is SO tough and SHARP, you won't believe it."
114064,2,"42 "" Plasma HDTV","After a fairly intense research I decided on Panasonic 42PX60U plasma HDTV. We are extremely pleased with the unit. You have to see it to believe how crisp the picture is in comparison to other TVs. The ""true"" HD broadcasts (e.g Discovery HD Channel) are fantastic. I give this unit a 5 star.I got the ""best"" price from Amazon. They even gave me credit when the price dropped on their website, within 30 days. The unit was shipped to me and it came in good condition."
114112,2,"Hillarious, James Woods proves to be quite a comedian.","Mixing Comedy and Action always makes the greatest movies in my books. the Beverly Hills Cop movies, Stakeout, Tango & Cash, 48 hours. These are all brilliant comedys that mix comedy and action perfectly. The Hard Way is no exception. Micheal J Fox is as hilarious as ever, James Woods proves what a brilliant and Versetile Actor he is. This film has all the elements, but it falls short of five-star fare because of a couple of flat spots. But its a worthy addition to any self-respecting film fans video library."
114129,2,you ain't lived unless-,"-you have watched this movie, it timeless humor and brilliantly conceived and executed. you will cheat yourself if you never see this movie. i guarantee you will be asked by your friend to borrow it, just bee careful that you keep tabs on who borrowed it and when as i have lost three copies that i loaned and never got back!!!"
114143,2,This is the kind of classic lititure that ought to be taught in high school,"This was an amazing work of literary art. Normally I am not a huge fan of short stories, but this collection was excellent. Each story is just long enough to get to the point and then haunts you after you read it. There is always that final moment summing up what actually happened to give you the chills."
114170,2,Great Vintage Barry,"Much of this was written back before Dave Barry was a name brand humorist. I can remember buying copies of the babies book years ago to give to all of my pregnant friends. This is typical Barry-- pointed, free-wheeling, funny and immediately recognizable as pieces of truth that most people are too polite to mention. Written as books, these are often more sustained than the column collections, and written Back In The Day, they don't have to live up to any rep or expectation. These books are part of what MADE Dave Barry's national following."
114212,2,the awakening land,"i love elizabeth montgomery. this movie is historical and interesting in the content. a bit mooshy at times, but worth a view or two."
114270,2,Milwaukee Products,Purchased a Milwaukee circular saw thru Amazon. Price and service were excellent. As I expected the saw performs better than others I have owned!
114308,2,"outstanding, jesus knows our pains.","My first book. I'm hooked on LUCADO books. This book proves that he was human and he went through many of the same kinds of heartaches, doubts, fears, and trials that we go through. a great way to realize that we are not alone in our misery and sadness. and it also shows how much our savior loved us and knows what we go though in our lives."
114322,2,NICE!!!,I needed to cut a slot in a blanket chest and this allowed me to use a router and obtain a nice groove for the bottom to fit in. It was easy to set up and I highly recommend this product.
114349,2,"Great book, thoroughly enjoyed",Very well outlined and descriptive of doctrinal truth. I enjoyed reading this book. It has been a favorite of mine.
114438,2,Great,"I loved this book. It was fascinating to read, both funny and heartrending at times. I highly recommend it."
114612,2,Sigma Macro Telephoto Zoom lens,"I needed a zoom lens for some shots that I would be taking on a trip to Canada. When reading reviews on zoom lenses with a price range up to $300-$400 no lens seemed to stand out as ""the"" lens. Rather than make a really expensive mistake, I chose to go cheap and I'm very satisfied with my decision. I think that this lens is worth every penny. Several of the shots that I took (with this lens) on my trip are now postcards being sold in a local store. My only complaints would be that the images I took using the macro setting were not that impressive...they were nice images but the fine detail that I expect from a macro wasn't there. The other issue is that it's really easy to move the aperture ring which will make my digital SLR read ERROR if I am in Auto-focus and it took me a while to figure out what was going on."
114630,2,Nice Jersey!,"I bought this adidas Swingman last July after ""The Decision"" and wore it to watch during games all season. It's nice and light and surprisingly durable after many washes. The body is mesh and has a screen printed tackle twill front word mark, player name and front and back number. All logos looks exactly like the on court jersey. Make sure you get all three colors! (Red, White, and Black)"
114657,2,I LOVE THESE!!!!!!!!!!!,"I am 35 and remember watching this stuff on sat or sunday afternoons. It really took me back to those days and INSTANTLY made me a HUGE fan of Ray Harryhausen! There is a documentary of sorts on one or all of the dvd's that is fascinating regarding the pioneer of stop motion fantasy films. I am now collecting every thing I can from this guy, and similar ones, and having a blast. If you love Clash of the Titans like I do, (Rays last movie) then you will LOVE these. Hope they take you back the way they take me back. OH and I am a private Nanny and show these to the kids, and my own kids AND THEY LOVE THEM!! In the age of 3D animation and high tech this and that..it brings a smile to my lips to see that this old stuff is still entertaining Aaaalll these years later. A MUST for your fantasy film collection."
114681,2,Good for the price,I got 5 of these to display my various string instruments and with the exception of one that didn't fit all others fit great and look good.The quality seems to be good and shipping etc was just fine.
114714,2,Works Great on my Gigabyte Motherboard,"My Gigabyte motherboard came with a COM port header, but no bracket. Since I needed a COM port for my legacy fax modem, I bought this bracket. Both the header socket and header plug are keyed, so it can't be plugged in backwards. Works great."
114719,2,well my bf does anyway,not a big Jason fan but my bf plays it all the time...thank goodness I fall asleep before he gets into it
114729,2,Hip hop on the next level...,"This record doesn't sound like the work of human hands. It must have been born in the cosmos somewhere and arrived here via UFO. The beats, samples, and good God, the *lyrics* are beyond anything you've heard on a hip hop disc recently. These MCs can flow like no other. The warped stories(Cliff hanger), free asociation rhyming (A-G) and cautionary messages are just beyond perfection. Buy this, play it loud until the neighbors need thier own copies too..."
114867,2,Great product and great packaging...,"Amazing turnaround time by Amazon.com and got it to us by Christmas as a gift for a little relative of ours.Each one of our kids had one of those and it was great fun. However, it was once more validated when the little 2 month old responded immediately with smile when he was put underneath the hanging toys. It was pretty telling that he enjoyed it. However, he was not very attentive to the sound part and the all the adults thought the songs were kind of lackluster at best.In any case, a good toy for the little one and the adult parents will appreciate the toy as well."
114931,2,Yeah for authenticity!,"I've had the CD for about two months, and I play it just about everyday. It is fantastic. I didn't care for the James Taylor remake, but ""A Promise I Make"" and ""Violet"" justifiably compensates for it. These brothas are ""all that and a bag of chips."" This will definitely be a pleasant gift for a couple of unsuspecting friends of mine this year."
114938,2,Great Movie,we loved it it was fun to watch the whole family can enjoy it together for a family fun night
115086,2,I like this book,This book is both a resource for using Photoshop and also a very good textbook for learning the considerable ins ond outs of the product. It is written in practical language that most people will not have a problem understanding.
115098,2,Easy Reading,I thought the subject was handled with a open writing style that is seldom seen in today's book world.
115129,2,Good Children's Mystery,"This is a good mystery book best suited for kids age 9 to 12. The main characters are a set of 9 and 11 year old sister. While vacationing in west Texas a hurricane hits the area they are staying. They are left behind during the evacuation and must survive the storm alone along with their four year old brother. The mystery involves a mysterious light in the scary looking castle on the dunes and a lady that vacationing kids have seen named ""Seaweed Annie.""Any adult will be able to solve the mystery in about 10 pages, but it is still a good story.There is nothing objectional in the book."
115227,2,Another solid OXO product,"On the whole, I have been impressed with my OXO kitchen products. The pizza wheel cuts smoothly and I have no complaints. It doesn't have any fancy bells and whistles beyond that of any other pizza wheel, but I like the soft grip handle and it seems like a good piece of equipment.My only complaint is the size of the wheel. If you cook on a pizza stone or cut on a cutting board without an edge, this will not apply to you, but I often cook pizza or cut brownies in a pan with a raised edge. The larger size of the wheel makes it impossible to cut close to the edge, whereas a smaller wheel might be able to get closer. It's a minor complaint for an otherwise serviceable piece of kitchen equipment."
115252,2,Another classic Cosby hit,As some of my other reviews state. I love classic Cosby. This is one of if not the best album you could listen to. All of the skits are portrayed with a style the Bill alone has mastered. It makes me smile and laugh through the day as I remember his routines and the way he tells them.
115268,2,Just what I wanted.,"I needed to replace my weeding knife. This was essentially the same as the one that I had broken after several years of hard use. This asparagus knife works well to use for weeding in the garden. It is much heavier than the usual weeding sticks you buy at the hardware stores, etc."
115288,2,The Virtues of War: A Novel of Alexander the Great,"I thought this book was amazing, couldn't put it down once I started. For people that are interested in Leadership and what it takes to be a good leader this is a must read. I have read Gates of Fire also and this book is better. The writing is outstanding and almost puts you in the boots of Alexander. Highly recommened!!!!!!!"
115290,2,Something to fill your quality music void....,"While I am not a big ""old school metal"" fan, this album kicks booty! I bought it after getting a taste from Korn's Follow the Leader Sampler. The first time I heard it I thought, ""not my type...."" then came back to it a month later and have been playing it more and more ever since. Listen to it 3 times and you will be hooked also!"
115446,2,Schumann: Piano Music - Review by David Dobson,"This has to be one of my favourite CDs. (And I have lots!) These pieces are absolutely brilliant. That's my opinion, but I'm sure people will back me up. Kinderscenen contains 13 pieces that vary in atmosphere from jokingly (A strange story - 2)to dreaming (Dreaming - 7) to happy pieces (By the fire-side - 8, and knight of the hobby-horse - 9) to very serious (Almost Too Serious - 10) to eerie, (Frightening - 11). Schumann's ""Papillons"" are delightful pieces that I always enjoy listening to. I learnt no.3. Carnaval is probably my favourite schumann piece. Each piece of music is supposed to represent an aquaintence of Schumann's. (Chopin, e.t.c. - 26). The first piece of Carnaval is highly enjoyable simply because of the brilliance of the piece. (Performance standard). As with the Chopin Etudes, I could say something about every track, but I haven't got the time to write all of that down! But the last track is a treat!"
115678,2,A unusual taste of history.,"Jack Finney, who is a wonderful storyteller, shares some of his inspiration in this book. Culled from newspaper archives, he has pulled together a collection of stories that, in their time were headline-worthy, and long since totally forgotten.If you've ever browsed through an antique store wondering why a bunch of people signed a bowling pin, or who all those people were in a group photograph, you will probably enjoy this book.The first half is the retelling of the so-called ""crime of the century;"" the murder of a well-respected doctor and the investigation that followed. Finney sticks to the facts as told in the newspaper accounts, although that sometimes leaves us frustrated for a neat wrapping up of all the stray facts.The remainder of the book is a series of interesting stories that caught Finney's eye.Overall, a cozy way to spend a winter's night."
115679,2,Unbelievable book! Super thick & loaded w pictures.,"I love this book! It's so perfect for a coffee table and very entertaining for hours. The pictures are awesome black and white - super clear beauties with sepia tones that create beautiful depth. There are color pictures too. It's amazingly heavy - 4.4 lb! The front and back cover are very thick. The book measures 9.5"" L X 6.5"" W X 2.25"" D. I could get lost in it for a full day because once you open it, you can't put it down! An outstanding value if you're a Beatles fan. This book is definitely a treasure and a must have! 5 stars and so happy to own it."
115734,2,Wha'cha say?,"I didn't know this book existed until I finished a set of cds and it was suggested reading. I found this book to be very helpful and informative. I did have a hard time with some of the Bible verses, because I don't read the KJV, but I read the New International Version (NIV). Yet, regardless, I was able to get through the verses just fine. I would recommend anyone who is looking to boost their self confidence and improve their life. It is a very uplifting book. Hung by the Tongue shares how the words from our mouths are not always uplifting for anyone, including ourselves. It suggested you take a look at how you are speaking to your self, what are the messages you are giving to yourself and how it impacts those around you. Words are powerful. They can bring you down, just as easily lift you up. Hung by the Tongue reminds you that were created to be a blessing and you are blessing to those around you. It suggests you watch what you say."
115760,2,Rendell is amazing,"The woman never ceases to amaze me. I have read so many Rendell/Vine books and just can't stop. So few authors can look into the warped, secret side of someone the world perceives as normal in the acutely fascinating way she does. No skipping words or pages in her books.'Darkness' ranks as one of the most perfectly crafted mysteries ever written. When all the pieces fit so beautifully--without stretching and reaching, without the reader thinking he's on a fictional ride--so perfectly, it is physically satisfying. The reader feels like one of the gods on Olympus looking down on these characters who stumble inexorably into what is to be their fate.At the end of this book, I sat back and sighed with satisfaction. Yes, brilliant, Ruth. How do you do it?"
115908,2,Great deal,"These knives work well for general purpose kitchen use. No, they will not cut a baseball bat into two pieces (well, actually I haven't tried that), but they will make it through a piece of chicken like nobody's business."
115918,2,Fascinating,"A fascinating account of one man's journey through life both physically and spiritually. A ""must read"" for any seeker of truth."
116058,2,"It's true, no carving knife included","Like the other reviewers, I was a little disappointed to find that there was no carving knife with this set. However, I was planning on buying the shears anyway, so I was happy about getting them.If you really want the carving knife, there is a carving knife / cutting board deal that's not a bad price on Amazon (on clearance). I'm considering buying it to add to my 7-piece block."
116092,2,Easy and short skill reviews,"I really like this workbook. It has reviews of many skills and facts in a short time, a quick lesson, and then practice of the lesson learned. It ends with one word problem."
116116,2,Don't miss this book,"I just finished Maybe a Miracle, and there was a lot to love about it. First of all, the protagonist, Monroe is so likeable. He is cynical, perceptive, human, and SMART. I just smiled over and over again at his observations. His character reminded me very much of the protagonist in Time Traveller's Wife which I just adored. Although the subject matter of these two books is entirely different, the tone of the books were similar.I loved the way Brian Strause treated the subject of faith in this country. And I loved watching Monroe's faith emerge in spite of himself.Be cautioned that the first chapter or two feel like this might be a really hokey book but please stick with it until you hear Monroe's voice emerge. He is one of the most likeable characters I've ever come across.I also adored the portrait of his older brother and Monroe's sweet (yet not sappy) relationship with his sister Annika.I can't wait to hear from this author again."
116153,2,If you want to see a great movie,I have been looking for this movie for years. I looked under the wrong heading.I thought I would find it under homosexuality in priest. I finally found it by watching the BOURNE trilogy. I remember the actor vividly. David Strahrain. I bought today.
116166,2,An enthralling western written in the spirit of the times,"Crusader by legendary western author Max Brand is a superbly written western novel about Harry Camden, a man lured into the fighting ring, where his powerful punch could earn his greedy manager a fortune. But the trappings and luxuries of civilization weighed heavily on a prizefighter accustomed to life in the wilderness, and precipitate his slow decay into alcohol and crime. This destructive spiral culminates in Harry's theft of the stallion Crusader, a horse so wild that only the greatest fighter of a man can ride him. Crusader is highly recommended as an enthralling western written in the spirit of the times and the genre -- and a ""must"" for all Max Brand fans!"
116233,2,I doubt you will tire of this,"Pick this up asap, one of the most intellegent releases on either side of the ocean...Someday this will be looked upon as a classic. Think De Phazz, you won't be disappointed...Dontcha trust me by now?Dj4cast(Roger Hannagan)"
116247,2,Perfect mix of punk and Irish folk...,"The Pogues are one hell of a band. No other Irish folk band that I've heard can actually play as well as these guys. Shane's drunken voice makes you feel like you're in the old green country.The punk elements on this cd are awesome too. I recommend it to anyone who likes who likes punk such as the Pistols...I've heard Rotten and MacGowan are friends and used to hang out together when they were in the 70's London punk scene.This cd represents the Pogues very well- it has a great mixture of their music, my personal favs being ""Body of an American,"" ""Streams of Whiskey,"" and ""The Old Main Drag,"" (a grim tale of a young man's early experience of first arriving in London from Ireland). Also worth noting is the fact that Joe Strummer from The Clash produced a bunch of tracks on here."
116272,2,Ancient cities of the Bible,Written from at time when exploring the obscure places mentioned in the Bible took rare courage and some insight.
116277,2,Took a long time to arrive,I like the jersey. It is over priced and took months to arrive but I love it.
116309,2,Contains many tasty and nutritious recipes,"Besides the many tasty and nutritious recipes, the book offered a lot of good cooking suggestions for a novice such as myself. I also found the dietary information such as number of calories and amount of protein per serving useful for my exercise program. The included emergency food storage list was also helpful as a reminder of what needs to be bought in case there is a Y2K crisis."
116459,2,KillingFloor -GOOD,"A good friend recommended the Lee Child books to me this year. Coincidentally, the Jack Reacher movie came out this month too. I enjoyed the book so much that I intend to purchase and read all the rest of the Jack Reacher series. If you are a fan of crime fiction, you'll love these books. My husband is interested in reading them too. I was told that you do not need to read them in order, although it helps, so I plan to read them in order."
116490,2,A Delicious First Course from Prior,"A delicious treat of a novel, Lily Prior takes her readers to Sicily, where Rosa Fiore grows up in a town of nosy neighbors, Mafia members, and fantastic culinary adventures. When her teenage lover is murdered by the Mafioso, Rosa leaves her bucolic hometown and goes to Palermo, where she becomes a librarian. With her move, Rosa discards her passion until, 25 years later, the mysterious l'Inglese shows up in her library.She introduces him to the pleasures of cooking, and he introduces her to the passions of the bedroom. A delightful sex scene on the kitchen table reveals Prior's ability to do comedy and romance simultaneously.When you're reading, you're swept away by both the plot and the sensuousness of the novel; it inevitably brings to mind Like Water for Chocolate, but I must say that it was more narratively satisfying. You'll leave this one with a hungry for more (for a second helping, read Ardor: A Novel of Enchantment, also by Prior)."
116493,2,4 years & Sttill happy,"I have had this set for about 4 years now and they have served me well. Although I did buy a set of JAH shears to finish the set. My only gripe about these, are that they are top heavy which makes most of the knives roll over blade up."
116587,2,I will like it...I think,"Pilates is very new to me, which is the reason I got this video. Once I understand more I think it will be a great addition to my health routine."
116685,2,Helpful hints for Communicating with People,"People fear walking into a room and starting a conversation. They don't know how to begin.....Jeanne Martinent ABCs for beginning conversations really makes you start thinking about opening lines with someone. Best of all, they are simple.Jeanne provides very helpful ideas about how to break away from someone at a networking event. Breaking away is something people fear for they do not want the other person to believe they are being rude. She describes in detail techniques that she has tested herself. Practical information for anyone.Kathy Condon, Author of the book ""It Doesn't Hurt to Ask: It is all about communication."""
116778,2,Great Old Big Band,We gave three copies of this disc to three members of our family in packages of holiday cookies. They're all too young to have heard much of Glenn Miller. They loved it!! Maybe it's time to revive the big band sound.
116809,2,Good hard drive,Bought this 500 gb ext hard drive. I read lots of review about it. Came out of the box working well. I leave it on for the surv. video at my business. It hasn't shut down unexpectedly yet. A+
116819,2,Playing Dead Review,"This is an excellent and scary independent film. The acting and directing are superb, the sets are great, and I highly recommend it as Halloween approaches! Mark Hanson undoubtedly has a stellar career ahead!"
116830,2,Got to get it.,When you like alternative music you must have these CD in your collection. Only one pitty : Going deaf for a living isn't on it.
116849,2,"A P. G. Wodehouse fan says it's a fun book, but...","...the brief section on Wodehouse makes two mistakes. Wodehouse's WWII radio broadcasts from Germany were more the result of naivete on his part than ""rummy behavior"" that makes Nancy Pearl call him ""rotten-behaving"" and ""wrong-thinking"" and compare him to a true fascist sympathizer like Ezra Pound. Wodehouse is getting a bad rap here, as can be seen by reading any of his recent biographies. It's nice to see Wodehouse featured, but not so nice to see him praised with faint (and inaccurate) damns. The second error is calling Jeeves a ""butler."" He was Bertie Wooster's gentleman's gentleman, or valet. In the world of Wodehouse, calling Jeeves a butler is perhaps even worse than calling his creator a fascist. Not done. Simply not done."
116955,2,Good affordable cable,This dvi cable is a great value for the price. DVI cables in my area cost 5x higher so this was the only way to go for me. I highly recommend this item if you don't want anything longer and need to have a dvi connection that isn't going to break the bank.
116975,2,YES BUY THIS MUSIC,Her voice is pure love. Music is very calming and hypnotizing. Buy this as a gift for a friend or yourself.
117081,2,Excellant Gadget.,Really cool. My wife enjoys the cieling display of the time and weather more than I do. It took all of 30 seconds to set the clock and forecaster up. I would highly recommend this device.
117135,2,Interesting but translation makes it difficult,I found it very interesting but the translation into English makes it difficult. The difference in culture also makes it hard to understand and often must be re-read to fully grasp the message.
117200,2,Take luck!,"I saw Brian on Comedy Showcase a year ago and found him hilarious. This CD is SO great! I highly suggest purchasing it. If you've seen him perform live, his facial expressions make it better; but the CD is very worthwhile because his vocal inflections crack me up. ""That's all I'm tryin' to say. That's all that I'm drivin' at, really, if you think about it. That's all."""
117270,2,rustic and great as a desk accessory,"I purchased thirstystone coasters so I purchased these. The coasters were too pretty to have just sit in a holder so now I'm using one on my desk to contain sticky notes. I love how sturdy this holder feels and it was a perfect fit for the coasters, but it's use as an office supply holder is even better. It's a bit rustic looking which I like. These are great for a seaside theme or for anyone who likes things a bit on the rustic looking side."
117290,2,I Did Love This Game..But...............,"I really liked this game, and the mystery behind it, but the only reason I gave it a four instead of a five, was the ending...I won't give it away, but I was disappointed!! Other than that, it was great!!!"
117295,2,Great for beginners and early collectors,Enough information for beginners to start with and valuable information for early collector to keep in mind. EXCELLENT ILLUSTRATIONS!. It has a great variety of species for the size of the book.
117318,2,worked fine,"Lost it after several months, but it worked fine many times, which is more than you can say for a lot of inexpensive small umbrellas."
117329,2,Detroit Rock!,"The best version of ""House Of The Rising Sun"" ever recorded. ""Music For The People"" and ""Heartbreak Hotel"", previously only available on 45's are included as bonus tracks and make this CD even better!"
117331,2,watercoloring the easy way,I started right away in learning how to watercolor .It was easy and fun to get started. The paint brushes were in good condition and good quality.The pages were easy to turn and paint on. I recommend this for senior citizens. I learn a good technique for a beginner.
117342,2,Change in perception of food.,"Judy's book has made a huge difference in my life and the way I perceive my body. I strongly recommend it to anyone who is dieting constantly. Diets don't work. I am not longer afraid of food. I trust myself to decide what food my body needs and loves. I no longer crave ""teasers."" Thank you Judy. Susan"
117352,2,Very Enjoyable,I really enjoy time travel books and this book is no exception. It was very enjoyable to read though at times sad. I found it intersting and hard to put down as I wondered what the ending of this adventure could be. Great read for both boys and girls and insightful to the history of those who emigrated to America.
117385,2,ANYTHING BY THE MASTER IS KILLER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"THIS CD MAY NOT BE ONE OF HIS BEST, BUT IF YOU ARE A REAL ALICE FAN, YOU'LL WANT TO HAVE IT! TO YOU GUYS WHO SAID IT SUCKED---SO DO YOU!!!!!!!!"
117447,2,Transform Your Life,Very interesting and informative. I can see where it could be very helpful in making life better for oneself. Thanks.
117489,2,Little House on Prairie,Bought this for a little girl and she loved watching the shows over and over. Great gift for a young lady.
117521,2,The best your hair will feel besides post-color at the salon!,"This Joico is amazing. It makes your hair feel so smooth, like every pore is filled and smoothed by the reconstructor. Make sure you leave it on at least 10 minutes, it really makes an amazing impact when you do the alloted time. This size is teh best deal I have seen on this product so far. Great value."
117556,2,yo dis be ur bible to make it,"like i told some bich b4yo fo reelz dis be gold! girl be givin da str8 dank on how i gitz my azz to the nexx level, u know it...f all dat lernin all yallz goin to collige an all! imma git minez, yo word to my kidz we be eatin better soon, yowtf is an std?"
117568,2,Sinbad Likes........,"This is a great CD, so much better than All Killer No Filler. It has 3 instrumental songs, which are great, but i think it would be nice if it had more songs. All the songs are great, and fun to listen to, but its not the best CD, so i gave it 4 stars. I like all the songs, but these are probably my favorite: ""Makes No Difference"",""What I Believe"",""Machine Gun"",""Summer"", and ""Another Time Around"""
117580,2,Wonderful!,"One of my all time favorite movies. This is a truly funny film! No matter that it's a familiar theme--the characters are richly developed and endearing, and there are hilarious moments interwoven with poignant ones. I'm trying to find this movie on DVD, as it's also a favorite of my 24 year old daughter. The movie is timeless."
117614,2,It's Good,Within the first five pages this book will grab your attention. It has it's moments where it drags towards the middle of the book (hence the 4 stars) but overall it's a good buy. You'll enjoy it.
117674,2,From start to finish nothing but pure viking pride,I am one of the most commited vikings fans and well Mr. Klobuchar you did it. You have enclosed all of our purple and gold ambition. This book is for any one who has given up a Monday night to watch their team play.
117737,2,As A Poet!,"As a poet I duelly enjoyed this ""poem"". it had more substance then domew of the plays I have read recenttly. I really like the dept and character of Shange's women, and their ideas. I was moved by the honest approach to the way things were/are. I applaud this wonderful book and give it two thumbs up!"
117875,2,TV Par Exellence,"One of televisions very best. I don't have the words that would do justice to all the actors, dirctors and producer. All I can say is that if you haven't seen it, make an efort to do so."
117876,2,"The Stegners, Mary and Wallace","Since I think Wallace Stegner is an all time great writer, I naturally was interested to see his selections of best and favorite short stories. They did not disappoint!Great writers, little known works and intriguing discoveries to those who pursue these wonderful tidbits.And it is a challenge to have a beginning, middle and ending for a brief work. These are sucessful and tightly packed.Enjoy"
117900,2,Guilty pleasure but nonetheless entertaining,"This album is a guilty pleasure of mine. It is probably not a great album artistically and even some of the rhymes seemed forced at times, but nonetheless I really like this album. Maybe it's some of the lyrics which make me laugh inside, maybe it's that the sound really gets me going at times, I'm not sure. Re-arranged is definitely one of my favorite tracks and I think it probably has some of the most artistic merit going for it for this whole album. Overall I think this CD is worth the price of admission."
117972,2,Men could learn,"This movie was very funny. Some men could learn something from this...just watch, laugh and enjoy."
118021,2,What more does someone need in a travel alarm clock?,"No nature sounds, no satellite settings, no iPod or CD connections, just a straight forward alarm clock that's refreshing in its simplicity. Pull it out of the package (it already has the battery), set the time, the time you want to get up, switch on the alarm and be done with it. Some things don't need to be complicated (such as an alarm clock). I have it on my night stand and when I travel, I throw it in the suitcase, sandwiched between a stack of clothes. Its sturdy enough (plastic) to get the job done."
118092,2,Pura Vida Map,"This handy little map got us through all the potholes and crazy mountain roads of Costa Rica. We traveled quite a bit and were able to navigate quite well. People told us we were crazy for not renting a GPS, but we didn't want to take the adventure out of our travels. It opens and folds very easily and the waterproof material made it quite resilient against packing it in and out of a backpack. I would recommend this to anyone traveling through Costa Rica."
118095,2,No Glaring Issues Here,"This is mostly an expansion upon the last half of Triptych, where Martin seemingly drifts into a loving haze along with the songs. Compact songs are still the goal here, and that's fine."
118105,2,One Of The All Time Greatest Graphic Novels,"This is one of the best, ranking just behing Dark Knight and Watchmen. Mr Ross' artwork is phenomenal with great attention to detail. Try to catch all of the inside jokes in the backgrounds... it'll take you weeks!"
118213,2,A great start!,This book is well written for the person who is beginning their personal journey to financial intelligence to gain financial freedom.Easy to understand examples and illustrations are provided to help learn a concept.I have started applying everything I have learn ed from reading this book and will go on to read the other books referenced throughout this book.I have also started sharing the information I learned from reading this book with my children and their friends.
118222,2,Interesting and well-written,"Although written from an American perspective, this book has solid guidance and advice to help change your perspective on income."
118236,2,Interesting point of view - but let's not underrate education,"Much of the information in the book is interesting, and I believe valuable for adults who are able to understand that alternatives exist to the traditional career path. A college education, however, is still a solid foundation not to be missed when planning one's career. I would want to be sure that young, impressionable minds were not detracted from this fact, when exploring all options available.-- RuthAnn"
118276,2,This book gets five stars from my five-year-old!,"A mother wants to go to the beach, and like any good planner, wants to bring a few things: a turtle, an umbrella, a book, a ball, and of course, her baby. But every time she tries to get there, the mode of transportation makes it so she has to leave something behind...which she is not willing to do. What is missing in each picture? Little ones will enjoy guessing, and they will also enjoy finding the teeny ladybug in each picture. I liked the Mama's aplomb as she searches for the perfect solution to her problems (look at the picture where she wears the turtle like a bicycle helmet!). My little guy wants this book read over and over, and with this charming interactive adventure, it's my pleasure!"
118326,2,Enjoyed reading this history,I enjoyed reading this history. Was looking for something more specifically on Kappa Alpha Psi but I enjoyed this read along withEverything to know about Kappa: an unlicensed historical factbook of Kappa Alpha Psiand they were informative. Of course Everything to know about Kappa along focused on Kappa Alpha Psi but learning beginnings of all the rest of the black frats and even soros was interesting.
118333,2,Narnia 1 of my fave book and movie series in the world,"i really absouletly love Narnia and everything to do with the chronicles of narnia it is so fun imaginative amazing jam packed with the many different types of creatures ever your imagination with these stories and the magical funness and getting taken away to another land while reading and watching narnia this movie is really well done and i love that made another one from the bbc version and i enjoy them and love them both.the bonus stuff on this disc even though it's not the dvd with the tons of the bonus stuff is still good like narnia facts while you can watch the movie ,commentary from the kids who stared in the film along with the director andrew adamson and blooper's.so i give it five stars cause narnia is just amazing,imaginative,fun,captiving,take you away from the real world fanatasy and adventure that anyone can get lured away into narnia wanting to read all of them."
118384,2,slept like a baby,This is a very nice crib mattress... bought it for my granddaughter's visit... worked out very nicely.... seems firm enough..... can't beat the price... fast deliveryWould recommend
118414,2,Humor and Grooooove,"How could anyone not appreciate an intelligent band with a sense of humor and can be groovin' all at the same time? Admittedly, the most irresistibly likable songs are the first 5, but the entire album/cd provides good music and demonstrates that this is a group of musicians that are capable and innovative. Basehead ladies and gentlemen, Basehead."
118428,2,One of the Funniest Things I Have Ever Seen,"If anyone is familiar with the popular T.V. Show that Pee Wee Herman had they know that the concept of ""Children's"" humor was often pushed to the limits. This HBO special however is not for children in any way shape or form. Its crude, a little low brow and extremely funny. Once he got his own show, it was toned down a little bit, but this is the rough beginnings at is very very funny for long time fans of the show and new comers."
118447,2,Wonderful,"Mann's most consistent record, including those she made with 'Til Tuesday, ""Whatever"" opens with the sublime 'I Should Have Known' and just gets better from there. I don't think there's a dud track on this album, but standouts for me are '4th of July', 'Mr Harris' and 'I've Had It'. The latter doesn't have much in the way of lyrics, but oh! that sound!If you want Mann's all time best song you'll have to buy ""I'm With Stupid"", but if you want her best album overall this is it."
118456,2,Nora does it again.,"Although this is a departure from her usual style and content, this is a terrific book. Nora has chosen Alaska for the setting and her characters are interesting and compelling. Our hero is a police chief who has a past as a detective in Baltimore where he saw his partner get shot and die. He is faced with a mystery involving a body found by hikers that has been dead for many years. The only complaint I have is Mrs. Robert's apparent rush at the end of the book for closure. The ending is not believable and I have a feeling her publishers asked her to make the book shorter than her original version due to the uneveness of the ending."
118468,2,Racing Parker was good!,"I haven't read much of Thoroughbred, but I wanted something to read and I got hooked again becuase of this book. Parker is a wierd kid. About time there was a good(okay) Townsend. Just why did Brad have to come back?! I think that Mrs. Campbell is doing good, and if you read it you find out the nest book is... drumroll... ""On the Track!!!"" Finally, TB's are doing what this series was born to do. And Christina isn't that bad, but she is a little stubborn. Great series and book!"
118485,2,A Game Changer,"Excellent, Excellent, Excellent, Bravo . Something that pertains real truth. This is a book that saves christians , Baptist, Koran, Torah and ETC lives. Cut away false pretenses and illusions."
118498,2,original and cute,"I got baby frog pendant first - it looked nice and I LOOve malachite and I would give it 10 stars if I could. This is one beatiful Piece- heavy malachite bead and so detailed animal I got many-many compliments. When I saw earings I had to get them. The only reason I give them four stars, it's hooks - too thin, I almost lost them when I put it on for the first time. You have to get plastic stopers (.50 in any jewlery store)"
118541,2,Great Customer Service,I'm a consultant and travel a lot for work so I love the noise isolation for airplanes and less than ideal work environments. I used them daily for 16 months and then the right earbud started to lose volume. I sent them back to Shure and within a week I had a new pair.
118554,2,Good Picture & Superb Audio Quality,"Great live concert! The only thing is that the video is 1080i, NOT 1080p like some Amazon reviews are stating in their comments (I would have given a 5 star review if the video was 1080p, but the picture is still stunning as presented). As for the sound, there are two options: PCM Stereo & 5.1 Surround from the bluray menu selection. The funny thing is that when you choose 5.1 Surround, it's actually is a mind-blowing DTS! I had the DVD release and thought the sound was awesome then, but I have to say that the DTS audio setting on this bluray is just so clear, robust, and meant to be heard this way. There's a lot more definition & instrument detail here and there which makes it worthwhile to experience again and again. Wish I was there live, but this is the next best thing. Go out & get this bluray. You won't regret it!"
118604,2,Golly Gee Whiz,"I received my Gee Whiz in a short amount of time. We have been using this product for the past 18 months. Not sure how effective it is because we still wind up with some yellow spots, but seemingly less than before. When the package arrived there had been slight leakage, but not a problem. They no longer sell this product in our local store, so I used Amazon.com and it was a good experience."
118672,2,Janet's Back!,"Ok, I picked up Janet's new joint. First thing I notice is that her & her crew (Jam & Lewis) have added a new member - the hip-hop producer Rockwilder. I'm bias towards Rock because I know him and he produces one of my faves, Redman. But, given that, he added some much needed grit what could be a typical Janet album. So what about the language? She cursed in Velvet Rope, she's cursing now. Get over it. She's a grown woman. I like the diversity in the music (China Love, You Ain't Right) But, my fave track is ""Feels So Right"" - it got that ""that's the way love goes"" feel to it. When Janet's in that mode, that's a groove. And when Janet grooves, all is right. There is no other female artist that can ride a killer groove the way Ms. Jackson does. Get the album."
118687,2,Hop! Plop!,"What a fun book! Kids will learn about problem solving and working together (without even knowing it). The onomatopoeias (if that's how you spell and pluralize it) and the pictures make the book amusing and enjoyable. After reading it, my 4 years old and 2 year old (and I) were sliding down our own elephant trunks.I highly recommend it."
118706,2,OPUS rules,For anyone who enjoys the wonderful world of Bloom County thiscompilation of the Opus Sunday comics is absolutely necessary.
118719,2,Replaced the old Maglight,"My husband loved his old Maglite but unfortunately, it got stolen. After I found this on Amazon and at a great price I decided to buy it as a gift to husband. I surprised him and he totally loved it....he loved the fact that this new MagLite is a LED flashlight. He won't change it for anything else."
118786,2,a great read,"enjoyed this very much,plenty of change in tempo, engaged right to the last page going to get the next book"
118817,2,Great toy to challenge your cats,"I bought two of these for my pair of female cats to try. It did not take long for them to figure it out. My cats prefer to push it around with their heads until a treat pops out. Very entertaining to watch and a new challenge for them to figure out. They enjoy it when it is full of treats, but I am still trying to get them to self feed full time on them."
118824,2,A fun way to limit our cat's overeating-induced-sickness!,"Our cats love this and it's the perfect way to give them food overnight without them eating all of it within the first 30 minutes and vomiting on the kitchen floor!They really like the challenge, and the size makes it really easy to regulate the amount of food we are giving them. We got two of them so they could both play/eat and that really solved our problems.My only concern is that we feed them a small round kibble, and although we are able to adjust the size of the food openings (GENIUS!), we can't seem to get them big enough to let food through but small enough not to let too much food through. However, I know we could put some duck tape over a couple of the holes and solve the problem immediately. It's mainly a problem if one of us accidentally kicks the ball across the room. We are stepping on little cat kibble for a few minutes until the cats have time to clean up after us. Which they ALWAYS do."
118831,2,"Pure Murakami, and what could be better?","This is a short novel by Murakami's standards (only 213 pages) and that's a shame because it's an absolutely exquisite book. I just wanted to go on reading it forever. What it is is a warm, funny, poignant, insightful portrait of a man's mid-life crisis. Although it's set in Japan, the conflicts in the story are universal. This book would be irresistable even if Murakami hadn't thrown in an exquisitely crafted mystery that will continue to haunt you long after you've finished the book. Buy it, read it. You won't be disappointed."
118839,2,One of the BEST CDs I've ever bought,"From start to finish James Morrison delivers on a vocal and instrumental level. Each song on this album can be related to stages of any person's life. From the inspirational track ""Undiscovered"" to the near violent rock song ""Call the Police"" this CD is a musical collage that should be owned by any music fan. James Morrison can easily be called the UK's John Mayer with soulful songs like ""Better Man,"" but then pop fans can also relate to Morrison's radio friendly singles ""You Give Me Something"" and ""Wonderful World."" At this CD's end there will be something for almost any music fan. Even hip hop fans(myself) will learn to appreciate the lyrical content mixed into this brilliant album.Favorite Tracks - ""This Boy"" ""Pieces Don't Fit Anymore"" ""The Last Goodbye""But please people get the James Morrison CD with the 2 bonus tracks called ""Is Anybody Home"" and ""Burns Like Summersun."" They're very good songs and I'd hate it for u guys if you missed them."
118989,2,Cool like the other side of the pillow,"We've all had the itching, burning and wiggling around in our seat feeling of hemmorhoids. This gel takes care of that fast.Its cooling and not greasy and works fast. The best part is that it wont leave a stain on your drawers and keeps the itching and burning away for about an hour at a time. Works wonders.Jim ClareyHoboken NJ"
119015,2,Loved this magical Christmas tale.,"I haven't read a Kristin Hannah book yet that I didn't love... and I place this one at the top. I sailed through this unabridged audio, read so fabulously by Sandra Burke. This is not the usual kind of story I expected. If you've read other books by this author, you pretty much know how things will go..... but I was pleasantly surprised by the twist in this story.... actually, I loved the way the story ended. I am a true fan of this author and can't wait for her next book. I immediately fell in love with Joy, Bobby, and even the gruf Daniel, with his wonderful Irish accent. This is the kind of book you just can't wait to finish, but never want to end. I highly recommend it. I'd love to see Kristen revisit these people one day in a future story....JMHO //(*_*)\\"
119034,2,Great Umbrella Stand,I am very pleased with the umbrella stand I purchased recently to use on my deck.
119056,2,Not just for Women,"Whether you are a man or a woman, if you're in the corporate world or work in an office, this is an essential book to own. It will revolutionize your earning potential. It covers all aspects of the work experience from interviewing to getting a raise to leaving successfully. His advice about how often you should switch jobs is wroth the price of the book, easily.R. Don Steele's blunt language is a rare find in today's world, and his straightforwardness helps convey his messages. If you read this book carefully, you'll realize he truly cares about telling you everything he knows about the subject. He is clearly passionate about educating his readers, and his language and thoroughness show that.I truly wish I had read this book before I had graduated college. I'm lucky I found it during my second job."
119195,2,Great tool for keeping organised.,After years of having keys thrown every which way in a box and taking long times to find we finally bought this key cabinet. Now we can find the keys immediately without searching. Love it!
119294,2,Disturbingly Real,A powerful novel that left me understanding the more subtle impacts of abuse. Bravo (again) Ms. Quindlen!
119464,2,Super Product,"I have had this keyboard and mouse set for around a month, and I totally love it. My last wireless keyboard a Microsoft product a key stopped working, so I chose the LX310 to replace it. Installation was effortless, I plugged in the usb cable, and before I even hit sync on my Acer ASE380 UD440A Vista Computer everything worked great."
119486,2,Real Deal Fun,"It plays like real table tennis and has realistic everything about it. Ball action is just as you'd expect from a real game of table tennis. Love the characteristics of each individual player, the different venues are cool and how the players react and sweat etc. Definitely recommend this one for the whole family, something you can't do for alot of games."
119531,2,This is Elmore at his best.,"I have read over 15 novels by Elmore Leonard, and this is my favorite. He just has the abilty to capture the mind or lack of minds of some criminals."
119534,2,Mesmorizing,"Anne Rice's new book Vittorio the Vampire is absolutely mesmorizing. I enjoyed it from start to finish. From the vivid detail of Filipo Lippo's paintings to the passion of Vittorio's and Ursula's romance, this book was absolutely fantastic. Anne Rice is certainly at the top of my reading list."
119661,2,40 Bright and Bold Paperpieced Blocks,"I think this was the first Carol Doak book we bought. My hubby and I have both used it and the first time I used it I had never paper pieced before and she made it so easy that I got hooked on this piecing method. She tells you how to precut fabric so you do not waste fabric. She gives very detailed information and instructions, I think a beginner quilter with ""just the basic"" knowledge of quilting could use Carols method. The pictures a very well done also."
119663,2,Dreamland and Traumland,"When ever I get boared with regular tv which is quite often I always switch to PBS. What an encounter when I watched Helmut Lotti and Michael Juinor Dreamland. The gifts that God gives us are right there in up comming stars like Michael Juinor, Charlet Church and the likes of these young people who are allready international stars and will go forth with their fortune that God has given them. Dreamland was beautiful, powerful, happy and what can I say but great. If you have a chance to see the production don't miss it. He is becomming the next Andrea Bochelli."
119691,2,Great so far...,"I bought this little extension cord for a Medialink Bluetooth dongle so I wouldn't have to pull the tiny little thing out every time I put my laptop in its bag - it's much easier to just leave the Bluetooth attached to this cable and yank the cable out instead. It works just perfectly for this purpose; however, as others have noted, the cable I received was not like the one pictured (the pictures with the completely sheathed female end). I don't see it as too big of a deal, but the picture really should be updated so people will know exactly what they're getting.So far the product works perfectly - both the male and female ends have a good tight fit; but if I run into a problem down the road I'll update this review."
119701,2,"Challenging, but important read.","Definitely a challenging book to engage in. Set it mid-late 17th century Japan, this book follows the course of young, headstrong Jesuit missionaries in Japan, and their facing persecution and desolation, while wrestling with the perceived silence of God in the face of it all. The protagonist priest must face the deepest of abysses in order to find the Truth he thought he carried, but discovered only at the end of his arduous trials.Recommended for reading groups of thinking Christians."
119732,2,Nice product.,"This pan is like any cast Iron it must be seasoned properly or it will stick, however since it has an uneven surface it doesn't stick as bad. However it is harder to clean. The plastic scrapper Lodge sells is a must. Also if you get the sold separate top you must heat it up setting in side the pan and it will cook from both sides. If you use cast Iron this will be no problem it just as good as any thing else Lodge sell, as long as you have a need for a ""grill"" surface. It is unusually heavy even for cast iron."
119760,2,Perosnally I like this cd best of all,I like this cd best of all because it has a lot of meaing in her words. No matter what she sings it would be good but i think this is her best cd so far.
119828,2,"Gorgeous. Lush. Delicious. And So Very, Very Smooth.","Wow! What an album! Lisa'a lush vocals caress every note of this well-crafted, beautifully-executed CD. There's no filler here, every song could stand on its own ... and there's 16 gems (including a fantastic remix of The Real Thing). Her sound (up-to-date 70s skool R&B) is truly unique, somehow nostalgic and yet so very fresh and alluring. I'm hooked ..."
119966,2,Zen and the Art of the Detective Novel,"I read the first of the Flap Tucker series, EASY, and was on Amazon minutes after the last page ordering another in the series, EASY AS ONE, TWO, THREE. I really like this good ol' boy with a feng shui brainpan. These are readable, clever mysteries in the style of Lawrence Block. The only problem is...after number 4, you're Tucker'd out. We need more of this great series."
120081,2,I love it!!,"I think this is one of the best workout tapes!! I saw results in less than a week (i did the work out 3x). And this is a short video, which i think is perfect. I have a young son and he sits on my bed and plays for a half hour while i work out. It's just long enough. It also works the entire body. This is good video."
120137,2,fantastic,so many thing s to say so little time just the greatest band in the world just wish i was there hope they tour again around here love it
120143,2,ready to care for puppies,"I got this game for the interactive point and the fact that I love dogs. I didn't realize that if you get this game it reacts like a real puppy. You need to feed it, give it water, take it out and train it. It reacts if don't tend to it by running away. it is fun because you can enter conests for cash, play with other people that have the game and the ds. The game even rates you on what kind of trainer you are. It is fun but be prepared for the long term care of this puppy."
120226,2,Blues Driver Overdrive Pedal,"This little monster can be used for many genres, not only blues, it is raunchy and rough or sweet and subtle,your choice."
120230,2,Is Gary Barlow the most TALENTED person ever?,Is he? Does he have an attractive face shape? I LIKE his face shape.is this album actually any good? Do I merely give him 4 stars because I feel sorry for him? NO Its because I like his face shape.Gary Barlow INTENDS to make a HUGE comeback sometime in the near future. I SIMPLY can't wait!.......for the VIDEO....
120307,2,She sings like an Angel!,"Sarah Mclachlan is the most talented singer that I have ever seen. She gets into my soul and makes me want to cry. she is truely a talented, gifted, and amazing spirited person. I have all of her albums and this one is called Surfacing is the best. I listen to all of her songs over and over again. She makes me feel like their is someone out there who understands me. My favorite songs are Adia, Witness, Sweet Surrender, Building a mystery,and Do what you have to do. On her other albums fear is the best soul find yourself song that there is and ever was. please check out this amazing deserved album. you deserve it!I fist heard her songs on the cancled yet hit show Roswell. That is the very best show in the world. I wish they would make a boxed set of that(dvd), they would get all of my money for that one. But they have to have all of the seasons.... I want that show. I cried when it went off the air. Well bye, get this album. You won't regret it!- Lecole"
120314,2,"Outstanding, gribbing, tale of epic portions.","After meeting him in person in South Africa just last week I found myself engrossed in the most dramatic piece of writing I have read since the Thorn birds. Nelson Mandela should be awarded the nobel prize for his achievements. Never in my life have I been taken more by a book, capivited by it's spirit, and enchanted by it's depth and simplicity."
120428,2,Quick Read Good Content,"Good to Great is a quick read, and it offers many interesting twists on common problems with good companies. The book provides some good ideas to start a company on a new path toward excellence."
120564,2,Entertaining movie eventhough its under the documentary section,"I found this movie entertaining, funny, and educational. I would never have guessed that abortion rights could be linked to crime. Now I want to read the book!"
120570,2,The Playbook For '06 & '08,"Near civil war in Iraq, health care unavailable to millions of Americans, deficits mounting & terrorism now at record levels. This is the legacy of George Bush's presidency & the GOP in general. Take It Back takes a critical look at the failings of the Democrats in recent years, with Paul Begala & James Carville putting together a near perfect playbook for the 2006 & 2008 elections. This is a MUST READ for all Democrats in the upcoming election cycles. Take it Back is a winner."
120574,2,Works,"Have only used once but nice to have. I think Home Depot has 24"" ones, so these are extra beefy. Maybe should have looked into a small hydraulic one before I bought these. You really have to lean hard on the levers on hardened lock shackles, but you can cut them as long as you are pretty strong."
120616,2,Fifty Greatest Hawaii Music Album,"This is about the best CD that we own. It has some of the older Hawaiian music & some of the newer music. We play it all the time. Now that we are on a long vacation it is nice to have this good music with us. If you are on the fence about purchasing this, you will not be disappointed. Enjoy!!!"
120742,2,Leo/3 Dog Night,"Leo Sayer came out when I was a teenager and I will always remember him on Don Kirschner's Rock Concert, dressed as the sad clown, singing ""The Show Must Go On"". So when, just this past summer, I heard a DJ at a club playing it during the band's break, I mentioned that it was Leo Sayer and my boyfriend said ""that's 3 Dog Night"" and I kept INSISTING it was Leo Sayer! Well, I asked the DJ, he checked his playlist, and said it WAS 3 Dog Night. I was shocked because the singer of 3 Dog Night (it was either Chuck or Corey I believe singing lead on this song) sounded almost IDENTICAL to Leo Sayer!!! My boyfriend and I had made a drunken bet of who was right that night and I was terribly wrong! But the singers DO sound similar!"
120757,2,Better than CNN or Fox News,"If you want to think critically about the real issues at stake in the politics surrounding the War in Iraq and Afghanistan, buy this movie. Both major viewpoints are represented honestly, and the movie leaves it up to you to decide.Or, if you're a college student not sure what your role in society should be, buy this movie. Robert Redford's character's exchange with his student will speak to you, as it did to me."
120785,2,Dread is the band!,"This was the last album recorded by the original lineup of Dread Zeppelin. The only founding members who remained in the group after this were Tortelvis and Butt-Boy. Anyway, as a last hurrah, this album is a pretty good one. There are a lot of good songs here, especially on the first half of the album. There are strong cover versions of ""Ramble On"", ""Viva Las Vegas"" and ""What is and What Should Never Be"". There is also an amusing, if dated, original song called ""Li'l Baby Elvis Jackson"", about a hypothetical baby born to Lisa Marie Presley and Michael Jackson. The best song on the second half of the album is probably ""Brick House (of the holy!)"", which is a medley of ""Brick House"" by the Commodores and ""Houses of the Holy"" by Led Zeppelin. This album is a fitting ""swan song"" for Dread Zeppelin, and the group's fans should enjoy it."
120796,2,Wireless Crash Course,"Wireless Crash Course is the book for those interested in learning about wireless communications without having to carry a wireless dictionary with you as you read. The author has taken what could be a very technically laden book, and broken it down to very comprehendible components. It is laid out logically to step the non-wireless engineer through all facets of wireless communications. A great book for engineers interested in learning about the wireless industry."
120854,2,Elemis Deep Drainage Body Cleansing,"I really love theElemis product, it works just like it said. My goal was to eliminate the belly bulge and it did just that, I will order it again and definitely recommend it to friends."
120875,2,Very scary... up to a point.,"I really enjoyed most of Hell House, it was a very scary read, and had an interesting end, however... I hated the almost end of the book which degenerated into some sick pornography (at least as far as I'm concerned).What's to like about Hell House?It is scary if you like ghost stories it is a good one.It looks at what could be the essence of evil as a force, and looks at how a place might be theoretically infected with evil.If not for the foray into the pornographic ""ghost sex"" I would readily recommend Hell House to anyone who likes a scary read, but be warned I was uncomfortable and offended at that part of the book which I felt was added for no good reason.But that's me.3 *"
120902,2,Read 'A Good Man is Hard to Find' to understand this movie,"This movie is a grisly fairy-tale, Little Red Riding Hood with all the gory details of the wolf's attacks and his death by axe. The child is the key to the story. The violence is so exaggerated as to be a horrible parody. The line the male killer makes (who has no name by the way) at the end about the little girl is everything. A very dark comic parable. Don't take its over-the-top violence seriously."
120997,2,Standard-setting textbook on project management,"This is a substantial, substantive overview of project management. Students could use Robert Wysocki's book as the text for a survey course about various professional approaches to project management. It even includes problems, chapter-by-chapter ""learning objectives"" and case studies. However, professionals will find solid, useful content, as well. Wysocki brings a lot to the table: voluminous information, insights from his decades of experience and clear personal judgments about the various methods he covers. getAbstract recommends this authoritative text to project management practitioners, trainees and students."
121118,2,Equs: The Creation of a Horse,"Like other books by Robert Vavra, the pictures and the presentation were superb. Anyone who appreciates horses, will be sure to love this book!"
121172,2,Very enjoyable,"At first I wasn't sure I would like this book, but I came away loving the characters, faults and all."
121186,2,Parade of FUN,"What can i say this cd is awsome. If you are a serious metal fan buy this cd its worth every cent. i have been a zao fan for a long time now and their music keeps getting better and better. pretty much every song on this cd is great, you will not be let down. so do yourself a favor and buy parade of chaos."
121208,2,Great Coffee Maker,This coffee maker is very reliable and works better than any coffee maker we've used. We purchased it based on it's high ratings in consumer reports and are very pleased with what we have.
121284,2,Keeps you on the edge,"This movie keeps you thinking on what will happen next, and you are usually wrong. Most movies let you in on the end result, Due East doesn't do that at all. It was refreshing to be wrong when it comes to this movie. Very good movie!!!"
121291,2,Criminally unknown,"Frank Black applies his versatility - successfully - to this greatly underrated, raw collection of bare-knuckled rock n' roll.The Catholics' chemistry shines through on two-track. Lyle Workman veers off into wankery a little too much for my tastes, but all-in-all his guitar provides a strong, soulful foundation for Frank's melody and lyrics.Crankable!"
121324,2,nice color screen,"I finally gave in and upgraded from the Handspring visor Edge to the Sony Clie SJ22. I use my handheld mostly for addresses and appointments, and I check a medication database multiple times each day at work. I wanted a good color screen and a basic package. I got both of these. I don't mind the lack of a docking cradle. I don't use Outlook for contacts and appointments, so I have not had any similar problems to the earlier reviewers."
121339,2,Great for the price,I recently bought a sony clie peg-tg50 i love it. The resolution on the screen is unmatched by any other PDA in the price range. It is possible to listen to Mp3s on it but if you want to put a big collection on it you'll need to get another memory card. You can also watch movies but you need a very large memory card and even then you can only get about 1 movie on it. The bluetooth wireless only works with other bluetooth products. The included games are pretty fun. If you want to listen to music or watch videos on it i'd recomend getting a memory card with at least 128 MB on it. So it does get pricey. The one touch voice recorder thing is nice but the microphone isn't very sensative so it wouldn't be very good for the things you'd normaly use a voice recorder for but it can get handy for giving yourself voice messages for appointment reminders and such.
121363,2,Billy Gilman and Mattie Stepanek. A match made in Heaven.,"15 Year old Billy Gilman and 13 Year old Mattie Stepanek have joined together to bring you the most heart warming music you will hear this decade. ""Music Through Heartsongs"" Billy Gilman the fantastic young country singer has added his beautiful voice to the poems written by the 13 year old peace maker and New York Times twice best selling author Mattie Stepanek. Mattie was born with a rare form of muscular dystrophy, but it has not diminished his ability to see light and hope in each individual and the world. This album of 12 of Mattie's poems set to music by Billy Gilman and his team are something you don't want to miss. I sincerely reccomend this album to those that love beautiful music with heart warming lyric's. You wont regret buying this album. Mattie Stepanek is the MDA Goodwill Ambassador, and Billy Gilman is The MDA National Youth Chairman."
121464,2,Great,"i bought this for only one scene. my favorite snl skit. connie ""the hawk"" hawkins vs Paul Simon. its great quality and by for the best snl skit all time."
121483,2,Very nice,I've not yet used these but they appear to be of good quality and should last for a long time. The order came before the date it was due to arrive. Thanks Amazon.
121557,2,Very nice,I needed to replace all of my hand operated gardening tools. These do the job for a very nice price.
121584,2,"Young, Talented, and Beautiful","I hope Barnett doesn't make a career of mimicking Patsy Cline. She's too good a singer to live in someone else's shadow. It's nice to hear a latter-day tribute to the Owen Bradley sound, and at times, it's almost as if Patsy is there in the room. But I like the songs that point to Barnett's possible future, like ""Ever True Evermore,"" a western swing number in which, instead of perfectly reproducing Cline's cloying, restrained swooning, Barnett lets that big, pure voice of hers run free."
121642,2,Love it,"great purchase, worth the money. get for peace of mind. i bought a second camera for my daughter's room and i use them daily."
121678,2,"Fantastic Speaker, regardless of price","I ordered this speaker because the more I read about them the more I found people loved them. It is true, this speaker is awesome! Not only that, but it sounds better than any of the speakers that cost 3 or 4 times as much (in my opinion)."
121793,2,mind blowing,"I can't believe this is the same guy who wrote ""The Bible Code"" - which I agree is a lot of hooey. Maybe it's just someone with the same name?I find it hard to grasp the book fully but the parts that I can pick up definitely seems valid and the book offers a lot of almost-for-layman explanations concerning cellular automatas, neural nets, quantum physics and how they relate to AI. Jeffrey's writing style is also a joy to follow. He seems to be very critical of Fritzof Capra's 'The Tao of Physics' so one hopes he is more rigorous and takes less liberties in drawing conclusions from scientific literature. To me, both books are pretty interesting reads."
121803,2,ALWAYS WANTED ONE,EL MANNING IS MY FAVORITE PLAYER AND ALWAYS WANTED HIS JERSEY. I AM NY GIANT FAN FOR A LONG TIME. NOW HAVING THIS JERSEY MAKES FEEL GOOD
121835,2,Wonderfully crafted acoustic folk with amazing harmony!,"This release is an awesome addition to my collection of music. The lyrics are well-written and thought provoking. In addition to that, the music blows you away. The variety of instruments used on this record gives it a very interesting sound that's hard to resist.Don't delay ordering this cd!!"
121854,2,Great Product!,"I recommend having one of these around the house! I use it for different projects. For example, I checked the voltage of an inverter with a digital volt meter. The digital voltmeter had 91 volts. I used this meter and it displayed 120 volts. This product works! If you want the correct voltage for AC equipment, I recommend this meter!"
121855,2,Kill A Watt Monitor,"The P4400 is a great little monitor. I needed something to give me an idea of the loads on several critical circuits that I wanted to supply with a small generator. The Kill A Watt filled the bill. I think it has been said before, but the only improvement I would make is to either package it with a short (3ft-6ft) extension cord or offer it as an accessory. Most of the circuits I wanted to monitor needed such an extension to be able to view the LCD screen (like a refrigerator, for example). But I guess that most folks have an adequate extension cord lying around anyway."
121894,2,The Diversity of Clint,"The guy can do anything extremely well. The many hats he wears in this business has proven that.Despite the tragic loss of Walt, the story was good and left an important message. You can always count on Clint to never disappoint."
121908,2,the goggle eyed pirates,"i enjoyed this book i have the whole series of 15 phantom books thanks to amazon. the book was very good reading in the phantom series,these books are not all by the same author. all in all i was very pleased with the book also the whole transaction though ammazon makes it easy to finnally get these books,it would take you a liftime to try and find these books at an old bookstores."
121914,2,Died within two weeks!,I bought this two weeks ago and was rather surprised to find it has completely stopped working within that time. I will update this to let you know how they handle the return process.Update: Replacement promptly sent and it is working fine!
122004,2,This is a collection of a few of my favorite artists.,"I haven't seen the movie, but I am the day it comes out. I love all the songs. Rob Zombie rules! I love this soundtrack....so the movie is going to rock, too!"
122018,2,Vendor really went the extra distance,This was a case when the globe did not get shipped in a timely manner. But when I contacted the vendor they bent over backwards to make it right and they special shipped a globe to me in two days so my son got it in time for his birthday.We all make mistakes. It is the mark of a truly customer oriented vendor to go the extra distance and make it right.Thanks!!!Also my son loves the globe. He wanted a globe he could put pins into for the places he has traveled. This globe is perfect for that.
122023,2,"""Many desaparecidos all suddenly found, looking better than when they left us = makes us fall in love with this World again""","All beautiful forgotten (not by me) songs with three magnificent gems: 1.Beautiful obsession (nick name;Sir Chauncey) 2.The dark at the top of the stairs (Percy Faith) 3.Moonglow (George Cates).Wonderful sound, great remastering job by Eric Records (not a surprise) sounds better than songs recorded 2 decades later.80% true full STEREO, the heart&soul; of this CD are songs that go from 1956 to 1964 and they sound like if they were born yesterday.If music is part of your life also this CD is.Ciao,Franco"
122028,2,Nice Pedal,This was the first guitar effects pedal I ever owned and I still love it. I bought one when they were a new product and I still think it's one of the better sounding chorus units I've ever heard. They're tough too! The footswitch looks like the button on an arcade game but it's tougher than that and you'll feel it when you press it.
122100,2,really fun and different top,"the movement and sound inside this top really captures and holds the attention of my 11 month old. and his 3 year old and 7 year old sisters also enjoy it. this is a great toy for just observing when little (6 months or so). but when the child gets a bit older, he can start trying to work it on his own. finally, he will learn to master the up and down movement needed. good for teaaching motor skills and cause and effect. love this toy!I have to add that the music/sound effects are not loud and annoying. they are gentle and amusing."
122185,2,wow,"This is the first CD of RSJ I've ever bought, I was so impressed! This CD was special to me because I've had the opportunity to sing a couple of her songs for special music at our church (God, Go and Sin No More) and so having a cd with both these (and other favourites) was just awesome. This woman has an amazing talent and a profound message to send to people everywhere-I also found her webpage to be very encouraging. Buy it, you'll love it!"
122197,2,"Amazing graphics, imaginative rhymes, compelling overall --","-- And it's a ""kids book""!!!I'm 26 now, but I remember the astonishment and awe I first felt borrowing this book from my 5th grade class's ""library"" when I was 10 years old. Back then, I gave up after 4 hours of not being able to figure anything at all out and had to look in the Sooper Sikret Section, but this time around, I got a few more of the clues on my own before having to look up the Section :PA great book to sate the inquisitive mind of a bright child, honestly. Highly recommended!"
122221,2,YELLOWCARD CAN ROCK YOUR SOCKS OFF!!,"There are so many reasons why you should start rocking out to Yellowcard's CD, Ocean Avenue. The band is totally unique because normally, rock bands wouldn't have a violinist. The music they play is awesome and the guys are also awesome! You should really try listening to their songs and you'll be glad you did."
122302,2,Good music...,I bought this CD as a wedding present for my doctor at Christmas time. He loves classical and he really liked my gift.
122345,2,add this one to the stack,if you like hybird theory you will love this. Reanimation gives a good mixture of mixes of the old stuff plus new music. Incropated in the smooth beat are rap rock lyrics. This is a must have to add to any collection
122356,2,Couldn't put it down,"Cane River as an absolutely fantasic work of art. Ms. Tademy has a spell-binding way of writing that draws you into each of the real-life characters of her timeless family story. This book was educational as well as entertaining. It made me cry, it made me think. The book is so engulfing in it's story, that you just don't want to put it down. It is very smoothly written; thus, an easy and quick read. I would highly recommend this book to those who are interested in genealogy, African-American history, sagas, and an edge of the seat read."
122362,2,Beautiful little cups,"These cups and saucers are great. The colors are lovely and it's fun to mix and match cups with saucers. They are a nice size and, wonderfully, dishwasher safe."
122379,2,Please Note: Only pitched roof covered!,"I love the Edition DETAIL's series of Construction Manuals. These books have taken some of the examples from their wonderful magazines series but is much more comprehensive. It covers the history of the materials, construction methods, material properties, example of projects built recently (within the past 10 yrs) and drawings of the enlarged details precisely and clearly labled. The price is a bit steep but I believe the book is well worth the price because you'll have a hard time finding books like these (concentrated on details) on the market (if you did please share the titles with us). One drawback on books like these is there's a danger the construction methods and details demonstrated in the book could become outdated as the years pass on. Another thing I would like to point out particular to the Roof Construction Manual is the book only covers pitched roof (otherwise I would have given it five stars)."
122441,2,Love it!,"Love it, love it, love it. Have not stopped playing it since it arrived and haven't gotten sick of it yet either. I bought it because I heard just one track briefly on the radio - bit of a gamble but it paid off. Great to drive to! Love the fast violin playing and the french horns. Rameau was one cool dude. Can't wait to share it with my dad. Am even wondering if I could wire the garage for sound so we can listen to Rameau while working there over Christmas! (Sorry this is not a high brow, classical music critic kind of review with lots of technical observations - I'm just a passionate classical music lover speaking from the heart)."
122458,2,New Super Mario Bros.,This game is classic mario style but with all of his cool new moves and some new power ups like the Giant mushroom. Game play is fun and easy for kids (platformer). Colors are vibrant and shading is flawless. Also features vs. mode and mini games that are especially fun to play with the stylus. My son and I really liked this one. To bad he lost it just one month later. Downside to such small cartridges.
122460,2,Game,"Great game, same style as old school and basic buttons not much to it but its still fun to play for hours"
122687,2,Life put into perspective,This was a fabulous book that makes one really appreciate the simplicity of daily life in America. This is an especially poignant book for mothers who must face life changing decisions. The writing was smooth and the book read well. I would highly recommend this to those who enjoy memoirs. Lee writes about the life of her grandmother and family members who live through some very difficult times. This one will stay on my shelf and I look forward to reading more of Lee's books.
122860,2,DVD please HBO!,"Come on HBO, when are you doing to release this and ""Witch Hunt"" on DVD. There is a cult following for these two films and Lovecraft in general, do it!"
122884,2,Love and Respect,"This is the perfect book. If all couples followed the advice from this book, we would have beautiful marriages! This book is Biblically based,it makes perfect sense. We just need to put it into practice!"
122936,2,Mamma Mia fun,"The Blu-ray version of this energetic film adds even more ways to be caught up in the fun. The crystal clear images and superb sound live up to expectations. The interviews, commentary, and sing alongs keep you coming back for more. If you are looking for lighthearted entertainment, this is an excellent choice."
122965,2,Love is a dream,I have looked forward to seeing this movie for over a year; ever since I heard Ms. Kaas' music from the movie last summer. I was not disappointed. Jeremy Irons was wonderfully handsome. Patricia Kaas was as beautiful as her voice. I loved the multiple story lines and characters. Claude Lelouch has another winner.
123016,2,Book Review,"Having just visited the small town in South Alabama which was the setting for this book, it was a ""warm and fuzzy"" read! Very Southern and very sweet."
123100,2,Nice.,"I didn't have any problem, arrived very well.Chegou no Brasil sem problema algum. Veio bem embalado, seguro e rápido. Recomendo"
123112,2,Nice for around the office,"I use this calculator on a daily basis around my office. Here are a few reasons while I really like it:1. The LCD number display is large and very clear.2. The ergonomic shape makes is easy to get a nice firm grip along the side.3. It is very sturdy. This has been knocked off the desk more than a few times, and it has kept on ticking.4. The buttons are well-spaced and accurate. I very rarely make any entry errors."
123281,2,safety glasses,these are by far the best safety glasses ever made. the bifocal helps immensely for reading small print while being in a work setting. would recommend these glasses to anyone. thanks
123283,2,SLEEPER NO YAWNER,"Steven Harriman (aka Steven Spruill) has written a tight, original and suspenseful thriller in SLEEPER. Although there are a couple of lengthy sequences that tend to distract the reader, he provides us with some three-dimensional characters that one can identify and empathize with: Dr. Andrea DeLuca, a brilliant herpetologist, more involved in the creature's background than she can imagine; Ed Jeffers, a conscientious and loyal member of the Pentagon, whose own disability haunts his life; and the macho Terrill Hodge, the SEALS commander with an agenda of his own.Harriman blends these personal crises into the horror of the story very well, and there are several scenes of bloodcurdling terror. This novel isn't as good as Matt Reilly's action books or as exciting as ""Jinn"", but it is a good read and would like to see more of Harriman in the future."
123343,2,Great Product,"EQ Smart Energy Drink tablets are great. Although I wouldn't suggest adding them straight to water as the flavor alone isn't all that great; but when mixed with Gatorade it makes a great drink with just the right amount of caffeine to get me started but not give the shakes. The ginkgo is also a plus, as I use this right before every calculus test."
123357,2,ANOTHER FLORIDA WRITER,"I read a lot of books in the mystery genre that deals with Florida, and I keep being told to try James W. Hall, the Thorn series. But I found a used book, HARD AGROUND, outside the Thorn series and decided to try it before trying his series stuff. This book is very good. Nice story line, fun characters and good witty dialogue. Perhaps a little predictable but worth my time in a hammock or at the beach. The story deals with the death of Daniel Tyler and with it his secret location for lost treasure an how brother Hap and Dan's girl friend Marguerite work together (really together) to unlock the mystery and stay alive. RECOMMENDED. Will try Thorn for sure."
123366,2,great book,"Great Book, this author is one of my favorites. If you havn't read any of his books, start with ""Walking with Scissors"""
123442,2,It WORKS,"I tried this years ago with outstanding results for my rheumatoid arthritis!!Then after 3 months I gradually went back to my usual diet and the pain gradually increased!Recently I've had so much more pain and flares of inflamation that I knew I needed to do SOMETHING! I began eating only whole, raw foods and grains again. Even without doing the fasting and cleansing step due to my schedule I had wonderful resolution of the pain!Before I totally committed with the fast and cleansing I wanted to indulge in one last pizza! After eating it for the evening meal and for breakfast the next morning I developed pain in my fingers, wrists, and elbows!!! I didn't realize how good I felt until I began having the pains I got rid of when eating right for just 10 days!!!Since I've gone back to the dietary guidelines and avoided the stressor foods, I am nearly pain free again!!It WORKS!!"
123453,2,I'd say this is for only TRUE I Love Lucy nuts. :-),"I received ""The I Love Lucy Trivia Game"" about a year ago, and it's still in fine condition! So, I'd say this wears pretty good, but it sure isn't very educational for kids. Sorry, but what hotel the Mertzes stayed at nearly 50 years ago, just isn't that important in making big decisions. :-/Although! This is a great gift for that ""Lucy nut"" in your life. It has really hard trivia, not just simple questions like, ""What color was Lucy's hair?"" or something else WAY too easy. This will truly challenge those ""Lucy nuts"" out there, so I recommend it to anyone with a passion for ""Lucy"". :-DI do hope this review helped. :-)"
123465,2,"The Admiral's Bride (Tall, Dark and Dangerous)",I enjoyed this book. I like reading Suzanne Brockmann's books. I was not impressed that the cover had changed and I purchased this book twice.
123513,2,"The magic, the laughter, the wit...it's all here","Please believe me when I describe the listening experience of this album to you: PURE BLISS. It makes me so happy as it shows obvious wit, intelligence, and humor. Musically, they rock, but it's not just the music...it also has a lot of their personalities shining through. They are so endearing. The lyrics are all wonderful. This is one of my favorite albums."
123519,2,HAPPY...HAPPY,PLACED A ONE-CLICK ORDER..RECIEVED IN RECORD TIME.GREAT SELLER..GREAT PRICE.I'M HOOKED
123628,2,Vivid Characterizations Make This a Worthwhile Read,"I always look forward to a new E. Lynn Harris release. I admire his ability as a writer and respect that he remains true to himself by exploring topics that some may consider controversial. He educates while at the same time, entertaining his readers with his uncanny ability to develop interesting characters that come alive on the pages of the book.The topic is sensitive, but one that can no longer be ignored. It's easy to pretend that prejudice within the church no longer exists, but for those who find themselves having to choose between being true to themselves or finding acceptance, the situation is very real. I like that Harris addressed this particular issue.I enjoy the way Mr. Harris weaves characters from his previous books into the storyline. There is a continuum in his body of work that creates an easy flow from book to book. I know there's more to this story, and I look forward to the next installment."
123696,2,Country Rock Cool,"Saw them live and had to get a CD. I'm now a fan. If you like country rock with an edge toward country, you'll like this."
123706,2,"tasty and meaty, but expensive because of no free shipping","These are my favorite sardines thus far, but they are expensive because of not being able to get free shipping. They are meaty and flavorful without being overpoweringly fishy and firm in texture. Easy open can was nice too, as it was easy to open it without splashing like the pop-tops. The only thing other than shipping price that I didn't like was that there were too many large/obvious scales in some cans, which was a turnoff as far as texture and visual appeal. Despite this, they are definitely my favorite so far."
123746,2,Purgase of Loving Care,"I received the product I needed, in due time. I am thankfull because all the drugstores and supermarkets I went to , in different USA cities, we're always out of stock ."
123874,2,YEAH!,its about time this movie came out on dvd. the movie was funny at parts and the cameo appearence from ron jeremy was just as fitting. there was great scenes where the two main characters orgazmo and choto boy just went around zapping people with the orgazmo ray that was plain hilarious. unfortunately the only close to x rated part was a guys a** everytime a porn scene was about to happen.
123891,2,Deliciously sinful,Please excuse me. I thought I had sent the review shortly after receiving the book.I received the book in good shipping time and is was in excellent condition.Definitely would buy from seller again.
123938,2,T3 Magazine,T3 is a great technology magazine but it's a little heavy on the cell phone market. If you live outside of Europe some of the cell phones reviewed will never make it to your local phone carrier. I wish T3 devoted more time to actual review of products. Anyway it's still a great magazine.On a more serious note I placed an order through Amazon for a T3 subscription roughly a year ago and it was cancelled due to the company fulfilling the magazine order did not honer one of the prices here on Amazons webpage. The woman at the fulfillment company told me that T3 had stopped being published (blatant lie).I'm certain it was due to the current exchange rate between pounds and dollars but to be informed that the magazine was out of business was unacceptable.
123939,2,Good Microphone Cable,"This cable is very true, and does not color the sound of the microphone. It is a decent length, is extremely quiet (even when handling) and connects nicely with all microphones. Good product and an even better alternative to pricey ""specialized"" cables. This will do just fine for me."
124012,2,"Avril Lavigne's ""Let Go"" CD","This CD captures everything about Avril! I know she has another one, but her music is fantastic, depressing, rockish, and easy to move to all at the same time. The best songs are probably Nobody's Fool, which mixes rap with rock, and Sk8er Boi, a very rockish tune."
124025,2,"ROMANCE, LUST, BSB IS BACK AND HOT!!!","This CD proves how amazing this band has been and will be. The tracks are very romantic and very harmonic as always. Check out: Lose it all, Climbing the Walls, Poster Girl... Amazing Sounds.. GUYS KEEP AT IT YOUR ALL AMAZING!"
124057,2,The Great Gregson,"Have been a long time lover of Gregson music & needed a CD of ""Connatations"" for contest purposes to check my memory as the last redition of this number was by Black Dyke recorded some 10 years earlier.....well all I can say is that the French Horn Concerto is good, the other 3 pieces are sensational, superbly played and what a tuba bench, with all those sublime pedals as a bonus...great value all round !!"
124092,2,Purrrrrrr,"An excellent book!! This is one of the best of the Mrs. Murphy series. As always, Tucker, Mrs. Murphy and Pewter are a riot - and in this book, we see much more of Simon the Opposum, who is another lovable character. This book has some rather grisly humor (I won't give away more) that really perked it up - as well as interesting interactions between the various humans. In these earlier books, Miranda is really a character, and she is a lot of fun that way (Brown tones her down a little too much in the later books). I would highly recommend this book - especially to pet lovers everywhere."
124098,2,Great,Great packaging. I have always loved this film. I had it on VHS but I cannot find a VHS player . So I purchased this the price everything!
124142,2,an old favorite...,"still entertaining. great characters.. and good stories..some of the villians are getting a bit stale.. but the hijinks are still fun and good entertainment...maybe the plot is getting a bit ""long in the tooth""...."
124180,2,Good Product. All Windows Compatible,"Its a nice product, inspite of its technical details saying that it is for win 95 , it works on all. its also a quite key keyboard. its Definately more worth for its price"
124225,2,Connecting with all of life,"I'd been practising the Metta Bhavana (Development of Kindness) in it's traditional form for about 25 years when I came across Vidyamala and Sona's adaptation of it. I think both ways of doing it are very good, but Vidyamala and Sona have adapted the practice specifically for people suffering from chronic pain and/or other chronic conditions, and I think it works very well. It helps you to empathise first with your own suffering, but then to expand outwards to use your pain as a point of empathy with all beings. Fantastic!"
124243,2,Serves a frozen concoction with ease,"The tumblers easily hold frozen drinks, smoothies and milkshakes. The colors make it easy to distinguish which cup is yours at a party. Put the Sharpie in the drawer and give up on plastic tumblers from the grocery aisle."
124290,2,GOOD BATTERY!,"POWER SONIC MAKES A GOOD BATTERY, I LIKE THE FACT IT'S RECHARGEABLE. SO I JUST KEEP IT HOOKED UP TO MYNOCO Genius G1100 6V/12V 1100mA Fully Automatic Battery Charger and Maintainer (Grey)AND IT KEEPS THE BATTERY LIKE BRAND NEW."
124327,2,Motivating and Inspiring!,"I am currently a student journalist majoring in Communications. When I began reading this book, I was almost ready to give up on my career and my education. This book literally changed my whole perception of my life! I absolutely love this book! Being a young African-American woman from the same type of background as Ben Carson, I realized that if I focus on my faith and my God-given talents I could do anything I want. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who needs a little motivation. I am now enjoying school and reading more inspirational books. My next book will be Think Big by Ben Carson."
124374,2,Great Value,This is my second ESP 6150. Quality of prints and photos is Very Good! The modest price of the printer and fairly priced ink makes the ESP 6150 an excellent choice.
124384,2,does the job,"cleaning out my wish list and realized this is the magnifier I bought at a local craft store last week for about $12. Very glad I did not pay $40. Using it for beading and other small jewelry work. I'm 44 and just started having the near vision issue, so this helps, it's portable, no light source, but most of the time don't need it. The base is heavy enough that it stays put pretty well, but you do have to balance the magnifer and arm over it so it doesn't topple. Still reasonable flexibility. All metal and glass, which I like, but I think the current price here is too high."
124418,2,bleak House Draws You In,"Bleak House is a story that will absolutely make you want to watch one episode after the other! We became addicted to the story immediately! It is a wonderful mystery, drama and love story, all in one. Superbly acted! I highly recommend the series!"
124484,2,"Finally, a setting that has legitimate reasons for limiting things","One of the first things that struck me when I got my copy of the Diomin setting, was the fact that racial and cultural limitations were given a reasonable explaination. I also like that for the most part, OtherWorld Creations threw out the ""staple fantasy RPG"" races. The Worldbook does contain flaws, a lot of which are correctible with the free resources on the company's web site. Beyond that, the errors are mostly with editing. I do find it disappointing that the mention of prestige classes focused on the ""generic"" DMG prestige classes, because I am a firm believer in the DMG's own statement that prestige classes should be campaign specific. I also think that with such a hatred of the Gadianti by the ""Good-leaning"" races, the lack of a Gadianti Hunter type prestige class also hurts the setting."
124584,2,Practical but not Preachy,"Underdog Advertising is a clever, practical book on how to get your message across when your budget is limited but your thinking isn't. The author's writing style is a simple ""just the facts"" approach but loaded with good examples of successful ad campaigns and a fresh approach on why they worked. The book shows how to make strategy an underdog's best friend!"
124608,2,"BEWARE, OLD SCRATCH IS BACK","Sell your soul to the devil and then get the world's greatest Yankee lawyer, statesman and orator to break the deal in front of a jury composed of traitors, cut-throats and evil-doers from America's past. Almost forgotten, THE DEVIL AND DANIEL WEBSTER (Criterion), based on Stephen Vincent Benet's famous short story, still grips with relevance and wit. Walter Huston is memorably subdolous as ""Old Scratch."" The transfer is restored and the disc is packed with extras. A great family film."
124609,2,My 8th graders liked it!,"To supplement a chapter that focuses on the ""big three"" - Henry Clay, John C. Calhoun, and Daniel Webster, I showed the beginning and end of this film to my 8th graders. They liked it very much. It helped me show how guys like D. Webster were larger than life in their life time and after. I enjoyed the black and white and the Citizen Kane-ish style, but I think this movie could be redone with contemporary stars and effects. It would be cool. If you like history and old movies, it's a good buy."
124746,2,"I don't know about you, but this is what I want in a book","Such a funny, smart, satisfying novel! I rooted for its heroes, with all their lovable warts and failings, and laughed aloud at the sly social satire that captures a Joyce scholar/pompous ex-husband and a socially ambitious widowed mother in all their meddlesome glory. Delicious, warm and insightful like the best company. I recommend MAIL wherever I go, and delight in finding a friend who hasn't read it so I can wrap one up!"
124763,2,"Good product, prompt delivery",My wife needed this book for a seminar that she was preparing. It has served its purpose very well. Thanks.
124775,2,Great for Executive Media Training & Classroom Alike,"Judy's book is one of the most practical, down-to-earth guides for effectively dealing with the all audiences - especially the media - during a crisis. I have consistently used this book in my Crisis Communications class at Syracuse University's Newhouse School, and with key executives who need to focus on the important things in dealing with critical audiences in an authentic way."
124904,2,DCS World is now the engine,"I purchased this for flight Sim entertainment and the company industry has grown.Now the best is yet to come. DCS World, with DLC purchasing separate modules of aircraft to start the series off is the P51D Mustang, including A10C, KA50, and a new element ion sandbox modern warfare gaming Combined Arms. Now you can control vehicles, i.e tanks, AA guns, artillery etc.soon more aircraft released and Navel combat![...]"
124923,2,It does what it is supposed to do,"This device has performed flawlessly. The device does feels cheap though. I did not have a Canon model to compare it to, but I would imagine that it feels similar. The device fits securely in the camera jack and allows you to auto focus by depressing the button half way. It has good 'action', I have only accidentally depressed the button too far once while trying to auto focus. It also has a shutter lock button which has proven useful for long exposure night shots. Wish I would have bought the longer cable."
124939,2,Wonderful!,"This is a great movie! My parents were on the set. Most of this movie was filmed in Hudson, Ohio. The house, which was not a sound stage, is a real house located next to W.R.A."
125130,2,Great customer service,"I recently purchased a 6-unit package of Frontline Plus from Bargain 123. Three of the pipets had ruptured in transit, which was no fault of Bargain 123. I explained the situation to Bargain 123 and they promptly provided a return authorization and processed credit to my Visa account. I would have given Bargain 123 a 5-star rating if the package arrived as expected, still I was very pleased with the customer service provided and will definately consider doing business with this vendor in the future."
125160,2,Great Mug,I have two of these mugs and love them! One is charcoal gray with a black rim on the bottom and is called Empire.The other is lavendar with charcoal rim and is called Mystic. They have a nice feel and weight and I love having my morning coffee in them!
125204,2,OK for the price,I picked this up soon after getting my shotgun. I have taken it out to the range a couple of times and I always had it loaded down with slugs. It has always stayed on the shotgun but I did notice that the screws holding on the saddle worked themselves out. Just thread lock them and it will not fall off the gun.
125241,2,Persons and Places by George Santayana cr 1944,"Author has a place in history. George Santayana's book has earned its spot on the travel shelf with other classic biographies. Special biographies that go beyond the current myopia are always a pleasant surprise. Enjoy perusing sensibilities of the 1940's and before. Sonja loves being Book Huntress on Amazon, we love one of a kind books."
125269,2,The truth,"Alot of reviews are saying the Edgar Rice Burroughs did not actually write ""John Carter and the Giant of Mars"". The truth is that he did. This is what happened and what causes confusion: a childrens publisher wanted a short version of a Edgar Rice Burroughs' novel. Mr. Burroughs was concerned that he could not keep it short enough for the publisher so he asked his son to help craft a shorter story. At the same time, Amazing Stories asked Edgar Rice Burroughs for another Mars novel. A full lenght one to serialize. Edgar took the short story and stretched it to a full novel. This is confirmed by several sources and by Edgar Rice Burroughs estate. It explains why some of the novel strays from the rest of the series. So, yes his son was involved, but it is wrong to say that Edgar Rice Burroughs did not write it. He did. Especially the novel version.Anyway, all of the Mars books are exciting and I recomend all the books in the series."
125325,2,The best,"Rocky 3 is the best of the Rocky movies.Now that Rocky has become the world champ he is a bigshot. He defends his title against 10 challengers. But then a new challenger amerges, Clubber Lang. Big muscles to match his mouth, Clubber destroys Rocky and becomes champion. Rocky decides to retire but eventually decides to fight Lang in a rematch. END"
125353,2,A Breath of Fresh Blues,Just finished listening to Edwin Holt's new release. It is a excellent combination of strong music and even stronger vocals. I can recommend this album to anyone who enjoys the Blues and everyone who enjoys great music.
125359,2,Great!!! Don't miss out on this!,"This movie is the funniest, cutest, most inspiring movie I've seen in a long time! The movie is done so purely and simply. This instantly sets you back to the fourth grade sock-hop when ballroom classes would've done you a lot of good. After having seen this, I'm definately putting my kids in ballroom classes."
125365,2,great product great price,it's electrical tape...what more can you say. It does what it says it does. I purchased this item on Amazon as the price and the convenience was great.
125420,2,One of The only TWO Books to own on PI's,"Kleinert the physicist is NOTHING short of phenomenal. This book is just one of his many treatises. After reading Feynman(+Hibbs) this is the text to follow up.Sadly the second edition which is in print contain MANY typos.The third edition fixes much if not all, so skip right onto the 3rd or higher edition."
125447,2,DeLonghi EC155 Espresso Maker,"Great machine. I have . used a Krups low end espresso for the last 10 years or so. It made a terrific latte, but more to the experienced user than the machine itself. This is espresso machine does the same - almost. It gives you the ""creamora"" on top of your coffee, which is superb. One warning; when the light comes on for making your steam for milk. Don't start then. Wait for about 5 minutes or so. If not, the light goes out, and you might, if not careful, turn your frothy milk into a very watery latte - unacceptable and disgusting. By waiting, your water will be hot throughout."
125512,2,A must read!,"My mom is suffering from cancer, and I bought this book after watching the documentary ""The Gerson Miracle."" The book has a ton of information, that I have passed on to my Mom. I am hoping she will see results from this."
125513,2,Awesome Book,Why do doctors seek alternative treatments other than conventional medicine when it comes to their own health or the health of a loved one? Why do the wealthiest people choose alternative medicine whenever possible? Because it works.
125525,2,"Hello Hula, goodbye FAT!","The first workout I have ever enjoyed in my life. Combines sports and dancing, in a fun, strength-building, confidence-boosting way.The three ladies have REAL bodies. Real strength and beautiful definition, without being thin. Having strong legs and hips is an asset while following this video. The moves come easy to someone who has always done sports in the past, but now has limited options available.This video is so entertaining. Listening to the pleasant voice and encouragement of the instructor, watching the girls with my own aspirations, and the beautiful videography, are just some of the elements that make this video WORK.I pop this tape in 4 to 5 days a week, and am 40+ years old. So fast, it became an excellent workout I can do, while thinking through whatever is on my mind, or chosing to focus on the dance."
125568,2,Super comfy!,"This was our first try with Memory Foam. I have to say that I am SOLD! So comfortable, my shoulders hurt less. No smell issues at all, we aired it out for one night on our living room floor. All of our sheets fit over the pad no problem. Very pleased with purchase. I was a little confused trying to decide which to buy. I finally went with this one due to the reviews. I am glad that I did. No complaints at all. We've been using it for about a month.MAY 2011 - Still using this a year and a half later and still love it. Haven't noticed any flatness issues. We do flip it from time to time."
125575,2,Back saver!,We purchased this mainly because my husband's back was bothering him. The next day he said his back was feeling better and got a better night's sleep. It's been about a month now and no more complaints. I have chronic back pain and it has helped me some also. It just feels good to lay down on. Would definitely recommend not only for back issues but just for a little more coziness. Love it!
125607,2,ken davis a twisted mind,Anything that man puts out is funny and has a point to make behind his humor. He is great.
125674,2,Excellent,This is a great movie and a wonderful collectable product. The only thing I didn't like was that the digital copy didn't work in my country.
125687,2,This is what passion is all about.,"You don't have to be a true car nut or racing fan to enjoy this film. It shows more than just racing but what it takes to be a pure race driver. It doesn't take long for you to start recognizing Senna's love for his sport and doing it for the purity of it almost to a fault. The passion Senna showed in driving and winning showed how he was one of the greatest drivers of his time and not just a good race driver. Driving to the extreme all the time was like food for Senna. He did it to live. Yet near the end of his life you could also see that he did not want to be in his car at his last race. It was subtle but through the helmet eye opening, you could see it in his eyes."
125705,2,My nieces and nephew love this!,"I got this for my sister's kids for Christmas and they love it. They are one hear old. It is fun to hear them make their own music. Very durable, also. I love Melissa and Doug products. It is made of wood and is painted in bright colors. It is a very cute, fun toy."
125723,2,Great skates,Great skates. My daughter absolutely loves them. The only thing they seem to run at least half size smaller...
125769,2,Couldn't get enough!,"I read this book in two and a half days only because I had to work and couldn't sit and read all day.When I finished, I started reading it again! This was one of the best reads I've had in a very long time. It was a different and interesting story,funny and the sex...If only sex could be like that in real life! I can not reccomend this book enough! BUY IT!This book recently came out in paperback(August 2007) and the cover is aweful! The cover model is blond when the main male lead has red hair,in reference to his power to control fire.But PLEASE do not let that stop you from buying the book. It is an absolutely fantastic read!It is in my pile of books that I go back and re-read every few months, it's that good."
125771,2,Great,Didn't get to use for what I wanted for but glad I have for the future. Plan on using it to thin out candy melts
125807,2,Good Contraption,Like this beast. Only downer is that I needed to plug it in to charge my devices. Nice to have one place to plug all the stuff in and the two top ports are handy for thumb drives and temporary connections.
125808,2,USB HUB that does,"I just received two of these to replace an old hub.likes:Powered HUBSeven ports with two ports on top which makes using USB drives easy.Cord minder helps me keep track of my iPhone, micro USB, mini USB and camera USB cables.Two Tone color looks niceStackable is a nice featureRoom for improvementbetter distance between the ports on the back would be niceGoing USB 3.0 would future proofsmaller switching power supply that didn't block other outletsLabels on the power supply that stste the device name and model number"
125847,2,Good Show!,"Changing up a quote I just read from Sarah Jessica Parker, I will say this about ""Club Dread"" - A funny movie is a funny movie is a funny movie, and I'm always happy to watch one.It's not really fair to compare this to other comedy or horror movies out there, because there aren't too many movies like it. If it makes you laugh, or makes you jump, it has succeeded - and this movie did both for me."
125851,2,Good for Princesses of Any Age,"I first ran across Fancy Nancy at my nephew's Scholastic Book sale. Nancy reminds me of so many princesses I know--young and old. I liked how they used fancy words and gave the regular word too--a great way to introduce French at a young age. I loved that her parents were so down to earth and normal, but Fancy Nancy is so ""Fancy"".I bought this for my bosses daughter, because she's a posh princess. I wished the tiara was a little more sturdy, but I LOVED the book!"
125883,2,A core text on the art of BJJ,"This is a must-have book on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. It is nicely organized in terms of techniques at each belt-level. The steps are concisely laid out with crisp, clear photographs.Although no book can take the place of live instruction, this is a good reference to have around if you are a student of BJJ."
125887,2,An early draft of Agincourt,"This book was, I think, a first go at Cornwell's 'Agincourt' novel. It's good, but not as finely crafted as the latter. Still worth a read. Better yet, read this, then read Agincourt to see how Cornwell has developed as a writer."
125916,2,Its next generation what can I say!,"This is one of the greatest tv series of all time, you can't go wrong with Picard, data, jordy, and the whole lot. Obviously some of the special effects look a bit dated, especially on the first season, but thats to be expected. Dispite this the story lines are solid and the characters all give great preformances. This is deffinatly one of these series that any good sci fi lover should own."
125938,2,A Destiny Foretold,"This book peaked my interest in the Mexican Revolution of 1910 and the resistance forces. The characterization of the youthful Antonio captured my interest immediately as it became difficult to set the book aside. The author best describes Antonio as having a novel yet dangerous life as he dreamed, floated and glided effortlessly in void. A Destiny Foretold is rich in words and their description presents such a vivid visual of the times and places that influenced Antonio's life."
126002,2,"Good book, but not an easy read","This book is another of the classic written by German Generals after the war. If you are looking for a good accont of tactics, and how the German army fought, this is another great book.There are a few small errors in the authors memory, but that can be excused, as there are mistakes in all after the fact accounts of the war. They do not take away from the book.The only thing I did not like about the book was that it was not easy to read. It took me over a month to read the first half of the book covering the war up through North Africa. Once I got to the second half of the book dealing with Russia I finnished the book in three days. I admit a bias to an interest in the eastern front, but for some reason the first half of the book was painfully dull even if it was informative.Ad this book to your list with Von Luck, Guderian, and Manstein."
126036,2,Wahl Replacement Blade,The balding clipper replacement blade is a worthy investment in the life of your balding clippers. A must buy for the professional or home barber.
126076,2,The BBC did it again!,"This series is clearly on a par with ""Doc Martin."" Is there anything Mr. Clunes can't do? Let's face it. Portraying an undertaker in a sympathetic manner is no mean feat."
126149,2,"A nice, comprehensive book, but give us some COLOR!","This book provides a thorough and comprehensive description of every darned geyser in Yellowstone National Park by a recognized expert. The descriptions are organized geographically by geyser basin, which is a good framework. Photographs are found throughout the book, but none in color. This is the book's primary drawback. On the other hand, inclusion of color would probably make the cost of the book prohibitive...... Great for reading about the geysers BEFORE going to the Park, but I wouldn't use this for a guidebook while IN the Park. I'd go to Carl Schreier's ""Yellowstone's Geysers, Hot Springs & Fumaroles"" for that. Together, the two books make an outstanding package."
126208,2,The Adventures of Sally (Kindle edition) is simply charming,"P.G. Wodehouse is a delight to read and if you like to feel as though you are there in the time of the story (1910-1920 I believe), then P.G. is your man. His writing is witty, wonderfully descriptive of both places and characters. Sally is a high-principled young American girl living a shabby life until she inherits a rather large sum of money. She wants everyone to be happy, and so her troubles begin. It is thoroughly enjoyable to read as Sally tries to stay true to herself while helping everyone around her."
126243,2,Taking this for help in healing a broken leg!!,"I'm 55 years old and I suffered an open fracture of the tibia in a car accident in Feb 2011 and it didn't heal by itself. Had a bone graft in Feb 2012 and someone suggested to use digestive enzymes to help with the healing process. The bone is healing slowly and not sure if the digestive enzymes are helping or not, but I definitely have more energy and less pain, so I'm saying it is helping. I have never had any problems with digestion, but I've read that the efficiency of our digestive systems decrease as we get older, so using these enzymes probably improves health as you get older."
126247,2,Excellent album from perhaps the most unlucky band ever!,"Sixpence is terrific, and they were terrific long before Kiss Me. I've been a fan since 1994 and I've looked on sadly as each record label they find themselves on gives them the shakedown. Does it make sense that a band this talented should find themselves out of print? How do they eat for crying out loud? The record industry needs to get their head checked for not releasing the new album Divine Discontent sooner that this September 16th(maybe...), and for allowing all their previous material to lapse out of print.Do they (the record execs) realize that it has been 5 years since the self-titled album? If I were in Sixpence I'd be really upset.My point I guess is this: if you are lucky enough to find any of their albums on a store shelf, buy them. You won't be disappointed."
126281,2,Sony MDR-NC6 Noise Cancelling Headphones,"After reading all the reviews, for the price I bought them. I knew exactly what to expect, that is what I got and they work great. Not flown with them yet but I know they will work well. I am using them at work. Amazing how you flick the switch and in about a second, outside constant sounds go away. The buzz is slightly in the background but not bad and better than the hum of the AC in the building. I have tried a $200 set (not Bose) and they are a little better but NOT worth it. Again, for the price, how can you go wrong???"
126312,2,An Irish Night Before Chistmas,"This was a gift for the newest addition to our wonderfully Irish family. She is beautiful, and she was in awe of this story and how it was delivered, even tho' she didn't get to hear it until several weeks after Christas since she didn't make it here for Christmas."
126338,2,GRILL SURFACE THERMOMETER,This is a very impressive product... It does excatly what I needed to set the temperture for my pancake grill. It is very well made and sets flat on the surface of the pan or grill. Highly recommend!
126371,2,Read of a Lifetime,"I discovered this book (and thus, L'Engle) in 5th grade and have read this tale every year since--I am now 27. Madeleine L'Engle is my all time favorite author--a genius at intelligently combining fantasy, science and every-day life into a remarkable and memorable story. She is, perhaps, the most talented writier of our lifetime. One book will make you hooked for life. The entire trilogy is a must have in your hardcover collection."
126372,2,"Generation D revisits ""A Wrinkle in Time""","I'm having the great pleasure of reading, and being read to, ""A Wrinkle in Time"" with two 10-year old boys. This was one of my favorites as a child and I'd forgotten what a good read it is. Fun and mystery, Sci-fi and fantasy AND an awe filled belief in goodness and God. The boys and I are loving it! The language is just challenging enough to teach new vocabulary and it's a great way to get their imaginations to soar. Madeline L'Engle is as profound as ever and I'm enjoying more of her books, some for the first time. If you're not afraid of the ""God"" word, you're going to love this book. Zach and Alex and I give it 3 thumbs up!"
126376,2,Step by Step Writing Comedy,This book generates good ideas...but you have to do the exercise to be creative. Published in 1982 but it still provides basic principles of comedy writing in year 2002 and beyond.
126378,2,Great Music,I always did like Patsy Cline's music. One of the greats love to hear her music whenever I have the chance.
126487,2,Tuck Everlasting The adventurous Mystery,"I thougt that this book was great! It was a mix between mystery, adventure, and laughter. I give this book a five star rating. I wish I were just like the Tuck family, so I could live forever and see everything. By: Stefen Dobrec"
126488,2,Tuck Everlasting,I liked the book Tuck Everlasting. I like this book more than others because it gave me a sense of curiousity that I don't usually get it in a book. I give it 5 out of 5 stars!
126489,2,None,My daughter who is in fourth has been assigned this book for their class reading and is enjoying it ver much.
126515,2,Great book with uninspired ending,"The good:-A very interesting story in a well-fleshed out world.The bad:-Overly verbose-Analogies frequently do not work-a bit too predictable at times-uninspired endingI'd give this book 3.5 stars if I could - I enjoyed it, but didn't think it was anything I'd revisit and I probably will not look into anything else the author has written."
126523,2,Comprehensive History of the Northwest District,"This book is a fine study of the Katy's Northwestern District. The extensive rare photographs, many by the author, are a wonderful complement to the well organized text. The detailed coverage of the last days on the District is particularly poignant."
126527,2,A l biography of a psychoanalyst dedicated to children,"A delightful biography of a pediatrician turned psychoanalyst who believed that it is important to understand mother and child relationships if one is to be of service. Winnicott presenteds theoretical formulations in a way which pediatricians, social workers, and others working with children can be helped to understand how to use their relationships with children and parents to its fullest degree."
126565,2,Best price here on Amazon,"These USA made 30"" bolt cutter ae the best for the money, strong, good steel, must have for cutting rebarb.You can not beat BARGAIN BUCK STOP for their prices! Thanks Amazon and Bargain Buck Stop. great tools and Prices."
126575,2,Excellent,You'll have to read all 4 books. They are wonderful and full of history. I can't decide which one i love the most.
126616,2,Great Choice ... Despite Taste.,"I actually started with the PLAIN version of this product, to add to fresh juice w/o adding significant caloric intake. Compared to whey, this definitely has a strong taste. But, unlike other reviewers, I found a sweetener like Stevia helped significantly. Another approach is to simply appreciate what I'm taking in: Pure rice protein. Yep ... imagine concentrated rice taste. If complete protein w/ little if any sugar is your aim, this product will undoubtedly work for you as long as you remember - you're drinking rice. With that perspective, it actually tastes fine."
126666,2,Simplistic Fun,"Ok, so it may not be the world's best music. In fact, it's far from it. However, everyone needs to listen to a little bad music now and then...and David Hasselhoff is about as fine as it gets. You want music, look for Pavarotti. You want fun, it's all here. We even have dorm sing-a-longs...get drunk and sing Hasselhoff, what could be better than that?"
126691,2,Whats not to like,Setup is easy and runs the computer on the other side of the house. Can't ask for more than that for this price.
126703,2,Arrives fast,Exactly what i needed and it arrives fast less than 2 days. This book is great for ESOL class. It's a lot cheaper here that buying it in the library or somewhere else.
126723,2,It works,"We've used this for years and I can really tell when I have to go without it. I don't know why it ""calms"" but it sure does."
126819,2,great hammer,"Who doesn't like Estwing hammers? I've been wanting to by one for years, but couldn't justify a second hammer. So when my tools were stolen I finally bought the hammer of my dreams. The handle is slightly longer than the 22oz. Craftsman hammer that I had, but the grip is much nicer on the hand. Hope to have this one for many years (decades!)."
126826,2,never stops,I use this drill for those small jobs & hard to reach places and it is great.I have had mine for over 8 years now & have never had any problems the battery's are finely not holding a charge i cant believe they have lasted this long. great tool!
126847,2,Old Skool kung Fu!!,"After checking out this flick, I felt the 5 star rating by a previous reviewer is grossly overrated, and profoundely exaggerated. I have many flicks with the great Kwan Jang Lee,,,and believe me, this is nothing close to his talent!! Yes,,there is no question this is an o.k flick. The choreography and cinematography is well put together. However, almost all copies of the Dvd transfer is remarkably poor. It's unfortunate watching this flick with such poor picture and sound quality,, but definately a flick to have as part of the collection!!"
126878,2,Very good product.,I just started raising backyard chickens and I have used this light to keep them warn while they were little. It has done a great job in keeping them warn.
126884,2,A fabulous read!,I couldn't put this book down! Julie Miller is an excellent writer--she makes you care about Casey and Mitch while keeping you glued to the mystery and danger that surrounds them. I want to know more about the Taylor clan!
126984,2,"Very good video, for kids","This was a very good video, but I don't watch TV and was therefore unaware that its format is suited for young people: kids and young adults. I enjoyed watching it once, but will probably put it up for sale at Half.com. I recommend it to anyone who has children interested in meteorology."
127016,2,Good book,"I had to get this book for class, but it is a great book in that it covers the history of corrections as well as the problems that are facing the Corrections communities today."
127058,2,Movie,Awesome movie. Clint is great!!! I would refer this movie for all my family and friends. Hits home in so many ways
127081,2,The Real Deal,"This well-photgraphed and well-written book is an essential tool for any professional working with window treatments, and is also an invaluable tool for the non-pro to converse intelligently with the trade. Pictured projects are not always in the most current mode but apply to any traditional or contemporary project. Easily one of the most useful books on the subject of custom window fabrications anywhere. Search for her other titles, too."
127096,2,A great book,"Robert Cormier did a great job on writing this book. ""I am the Cheese"" is a great book that makes you think which you don't encounter often. It is full of suspense and drama. It is confusing at times but at the end it all comes together. The book was so interesting it was hard to stop reading. My favorite part is at the end when the title comes into play. I would recommend this book to any mature reader who likes suspense and drama."
127142,2,Good Variety of Recipes,"The history of Ice Cream and the information about making homemade ice cream was good. The variety of recipes is great. I just have one complaint. This book, like most, only gives the recipe to make one gallon."
127177,2,Context for Football Dreams,"As fact informs fiction, so did real life inform the story David Guy tells in FOOTBALL DREAMS. The Arnold Preparatory School is, in real life, Shady Side Academy; the campus Guy describes is the Senior School campus of Shady Side Academy, located in the Pittsburgh suburb of Fox Chapel. The neighborhoods to which Guy refers are in Pittsburgh's East End. Shady Side Academy merged with The Arnold School in 1940. The Arnold School was named to honor the renowned Arnold of The Rugby School (England). ""Tea Parties"" did occur at Shady Side Academy until the early 1970s. And many of the experiences of the protoganist in this story were experiences Guy and his classmates had when they attended Shady Side Academy in the 1960s. FOOTBALL DREAMS is a great story and should have a special appeal to anyone familiar with Pittsburgh, preparatory schooling, and coming of age in the early to mid 1960s."
127299,2,"A biased, but essential analysis of American history","This book is a must read. A lot of his points are true, and a lot are radical leftist rhetoric. The fact of the matter is we need this kind of information. Sweeping our past and present wrongdoings (internment camps, racism, sexism, etc) under the carpet is an egregious act to commit. Zinn exposes many of these wrongs that are not told in conventional history books. This should not be the only history book you read, it is something that should be read after reading any run-of-the mill high school history text. Even if you disagree with most of Zinn's points you must agree that we are lucky to live in a country that allows freedom of press, without that right great men like Zinn would never be heard"
127301,2,Zinn is brilliant,"I bought this book for a History of US Mass Media class in college, and I couldn't put it down. I found myself reading ahead of what was assigned. ZInn's style is never dull or pedantic or pretentious. He points our heads into directions we're not used to, and it changes the way we look at the history happening right now.A must read for all journalism or history majors."
127371,2,The best of the best of christian music,"One of the best Rock band ever and they prove one more time on March 6,2004 in Puerto Rico-LIVE. Contact www.tcpr.com"
127502,2,Amazing Picture Quality,Purchased for my son...WOW what a picture...also comes with some fun software to play with...funny hair that moves around with you as you move
127509,2,Nice!,Would purchase again. Nice quality! Beautiful Cranberry color! This tablecloth was just what I wanted. Elegant and easy to care for in the wash. You cannot go wrong with this product!
127530,2,Fun fuel for the child who loves life around them,"This is an excellent magazine that will add intelligence fuel to your child's brain. Not a fluff mag. with the latest pop star, or dating hints, this is fun, interesting brain food that you won't have to worry about whether your child will like or not like it. They will pick it up, sit down and devour. Try it you will enjoy!"
127561,2,So much packed into this book!,"Just about anything you want to know about finances, Suze has packed in this book. Even things you thought you knew she has gone into detail and you can learn something new. Also, she has done a great job in motavating people to move forward and take care of business."
127597,2,"Solid, not Stellar","Love the sound and graphics. Looks and sounds great on big-screen TV. It takes a while to get used to driving the kart, however, once you master it, you'll be hooked. I only wish they had included more tracks to race on."
127599,2,Great Resource!,"I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. I'm almost 50 and have often felt ""out of place"" in this crazy, fast-paced world of ours. It's nice to know I'm perfectly normal, and that there are others out there just like me."
127615,2,Superyard Play Yard,"I use this product as a playpen, I LOVE it! I like it better than your usual playpen because it is larger and more versital. It can also be used outside if you have puppies. It is very sturdy and when I'm not babysitting it folds up almost flat."
127703,2,Completely love it.,"One of the best things I've bought. It IS delicate and I learned that the hard way unfortunately. A friend of mine smacked my hand for whatever reason and it bent so I'll be ordering another one soon.. (along with two additional ones for my two best friends). It came in a nice little box with a bow on it. I've had it for over a year and wear it almost every day. (I'm not one for jewelry but I loved this ring). Great buy and I WILL be ordering from this company again. You see in the picture exactly what you get in the mail and for the price, you can't go wrong."
127706,2,The Best Tarot Book Yet,"This is a great guide for anyone learning or practicing tarot divination. (I was also tickled to find this book illustrated with the Robin Wood tarot, which is one of the decks I use.) The treatment of the cards is thorough and makes sense. The book itself is a user-friendly reference. After wading through some not so cool tarot books that claimed to be ""plain"" or ""easy to use,"" I wish I'd saved my money and just bought this one."
127721,2,A fascinating read: an inspiration to us all!,"Dr. Hartig's Crossing the Divide is a fascinating read dealing with the triumph of the human spirit over adversity. This book contains a well-researched account of the lives of deaf and deaf-blind people through the observations of three deaf French biographers from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Underlying themes are the barriers the deaf encountered, the support they eventually received, and finally, their extraordinary achievements in their struggle to ""cross the divide"" into a hearing world. Remarkably, many chose to help others afflicted with hearing loss. Hartig's knowledge, insight, and compassion reflect her experiences in teaching the deaf at Gallaudet University for nearly forty years.I highly recommend Crossing the Divide. It's hard to put down and is an inspiration to us all!"
127767,2,Great Price For A Great Vacuum,"This was the 4th vacuum that I've purchased in the last 4 years. The others were a variety of 'uprights'. They were either too heavy or the brushes weren't very useful or the vacuum was easily clogged or just low vacuum. This time I went on-line and researched and read reviews on several different mid-priced vacuums. This Hoover WindTunnel Cannister got a lot of good reviews so I ordered it.The Hoover WindTunnel Canister Vacuum, Electronic Bagless S37665-040 is great. The brushes do a very good job of raising the carpet fiber, and the three level vacuum picks up the real fine dirt. I like the ease of going to use the wand around the carpet's edges and furniture. It takes just seconds to switch back and forth. I have no complaints with this vauum's operation and have recommended it to my daughter and work associates."
127870,2,If you like down tempo-electro...,"In a very unusual move for me, I bought this CD on the strength of one track, being the lovely Gai Soleil. This track exhibits the moody, gentle, watery, and slightly spacey effects that dominate the whole album, so I was neither surprised nor disappointed when I finally bought the album. The album is definitely a down-tempo piece, so if you like something that rocks along, it ain’t this. However, a number of the pieces develop some quite insistent beats that vary from drum and bass inspired to an almost funky drive (such as Gai Soleil). In the time that I have had the album I find myself liking it more and more and I look forward to listening to it when down-tempo is the only tempo I am after."
127964,2,Back Saver!,"This Creeper seat is nothing short of fantastic! The height control mechanism works flawlessly and there is no hunting around for a single lever, the ring does the thing! The on-board tool\cleaning stuff carrying feature is a step saver also, it's always right where you need it. It's extremely well built and handles my 260+ pounds with no effort at all. The wheels are just large enough to pass over the seams in the garage floor without stopping your movement or tipping over. I have a show car that has to be cleaned frequently and this makes doing the lower parts and wheels a piece of cake. No more back aches!! The price is fantastic and the quality is superb! I highly recommend this product!"
127976,2,Exellent Second Special Album,This is BoA's second Special Korean album.It contains Korean versions of many of her Japanese hits.Although some do not sound so great in Korean many do.The best versions are...DestinyEvery HeartValentiSnow WhiteNext StepOf course most of these are b-sides.The full track listing isDestinyEvery HeartValentiFeelings Deep InsideShare you Heart With MeHappinessSnow WhiteNobody But YouNext StepNothings Gonna ChangeListen to My HeartThis disc also contains the music video for Valenti.Also contains downloadable posters etc.Worth The money but cheaper else where.
127978,2,Extremely useful and good place to start,I use my Nano to listen while riding the public transit. It's perfect! I did not get it for the radio but I have used it once and it's not bad either. I love the fact that it uses AAA batteries that are widely available. This is a great little player and I'm thinking of getting another for my wife.
127991,2,Suprise Delight,Very entertaining 30 min flick. Very funny and brings back all the characters of the original Madagascar films in good taste. defenietly a must buy for all Madagascar fans.
128048,2,clear glass percolator top for Faberware percolator,The clear glass percolator top for Faberware percolator was exactly what I needed. It fiots my percolator is working perfectly.
128086,2,Everyone should take this,"Easy to take, read about MSM online! With all the great benefits, people should try and take it more often."
128144,2,Intruiging and creepy!,"This Harry Potter installment has more story, more intrigue. The conflict Harry has concerning his ""true nature"" is very effective.The young actors all give fine performances, and the special effects are top notch. Some of the ""creatures"" may be too intense for very young children.A must for any fantasy DVD collection.Jeff Messenger, author of the novel ""The Shroud of Torrington."""
128147,2,great for syma s107,"These are much thinner than the stock tail rotors and will break much more easily. Just be prepared for them to break ... they're cheap, buy lots at a time.They are great to put on the syma s107. You will get quite a bit more forward speed.Just turn the tail motor over, reverse or remove the tail stabilizer and slide on the new prop. Also, you can put the prop on upside down, in which case reverse will work *really* well. ;)"
128175,2,JUST BELIEVE!!!,"Dare to Believe (Life Messages of Great Christians, 3.)...RECEIVED BEFORE ESTIMATED TIME, PACKAGING WAS PROPERLY DONE. THE BOOK WAS BOUGHT USED AND IT LOOKED LIKE IT. HOWEVER, IT IS COMPLETELY READABLE AND NO PAGES WERE TORN OR MARKED UP. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS BOOK AND ALL OTHERS BY SMITH TO BE READ. IT IS AMAZING HOW FAR WE HAVE STEPPED AWAY FROM OUR ORGINAL BELIEFS AND OUR STANDARDS. READING ""DARE TO BELIEVE"" HAS HELPED RESTORE MY FAITH, HOPE, AND RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD, OUR FATHER."
128220,2,"Fun Ring, Not Perfect","There's nothing wrong with the artistic features of this ring, nor the workmanship. As others have stated, the silver could be perceived as ""thin"". However, for a ring of this width that's a good thing. Were the silver any thicker, it would be unwieldy to wear. I would suggest you buy a size up from your regular size, otherwise your finger might feel ""smothered"". It gets sweaty pretty quickly. The only thing that would make me say ""WOW!"" would be if the silver were brushed so that it really glowed. As it is, this is a very nice ring, especially on my middle finger, but not a spectacular one. The silver is... well, it's silver, but not a silver that *POPS*. But I'm also INCREDIBLY picky.Recommended. B+"
128286,2,OK. I'm convinced.,"Mr. Gadalla cites so many passages that make a convincing argument about the biblical characters being modeled after actual historical Egyptian characters, that I don't see how it could be any other way."
128435,2,thoughtful,This movie shows the hypocrisy of intolerance . I am not sure how Maher got through without being assaulted .
128459,2,Great Jillian Workout for the Beginner,"I purchased this DVD for my mom. I own most of Jillian's other DVDs but my mom was looking for a less intense workout. My mom loves this DVD. Jillian is very friendly and motivating on the DVD. The two workouts are a bit long at about 45 minutes each but doable.If you can do the 30 Day Shred or Jillian's Yoga Meltdown, this is not the DVD for you. It is a lot less challenging than those workouts. As someone who is in the middle of Ripped in 30, this workout was far too simple for me. I would recommend this DVD to someone who is just starting to workout or those with health issues that prevent them from doing a more intense workout. This is a great workout for the Jillian fan who is just starting their fitness journey or any beginner looking for a good workout."
128488,2,"Beethoven's Symphonies 1,2,3,4,5","Typically Beethoven, Symphony #4 lifts you off your chair and sends you away with it's power, and Symphony #5 is also a very strong piece of Music, same for Symphonies 1 and 2. If you love Early Beethoven, and love Classical music that really knocks your socks off then you will love this CD set."
128490,2,Engaging for the kids.,"The kids love this movie. They have watched it 2 times so far, and have wanted to watch it more. They love the story line, and effects of John Carter. It kind of reminded me of a Star Wars meets Indiana Jones, with a little bit of Avatar. Great movie!!"
128543,2,Apostle Paul,"Fascinating book. As a nonbiblical scholar, I was engrossed end-to-end to see what Paul was viewed to have been ""as a man"", and the singular importance he had on the development of the Church. Jim Cannon writes a very engaging story, and it will forever enhance my appreciation of what this remarkable man did and accomplished. It brings to life the readings of the bible and the singular contribution Paul had in shaping Christian thought. A must read by anyone, especially Christian, who has wondered about this period and Paul. Jim Cannon clearly researched this thoroughly and provided a thoughtful and well constructed view of the times and the person.G. Richard ThompsonCabin John, MD"
128562,2,Absolutely Wonderful,"Anne Rice, though she may find practices of BDSM morally repulsive, seems to have a true understanding of the dom/sub relationship. Great look into the minds and practices of those involved in this lifestyle."
128743,2,LISTEN TO THE MUSIC OF HEAVEN!!,"I heard a lot of people telling about this recording, and I decided I must buy this CD! So I did. I tell you, it is the Music of Heaven! I was so enchanted by the angelic voices. I am an Orthodox Christian, many non-Orthodox have this CD as well. I give it 10+ stars if i could! I HIGHLY recommend this CD to everyone!! I guess the reason that Amazon.com chose not to but all the tracks, to listen to, because they want to hide the hidden enchantment of this CD! ENJOY!!"
128901,2,Clean and Smooth,"If you're true fan of Brant and his style than you will enjoy this acoustic offering. Both personal and political, the lyrics come out intense and is wrapped around his familiar guitars."
128958,2,Yu-Gi-Oh! begins!!!,"This is a good volume, of course it starts the series so don't expect anything too deep.The art is okay compared to takahashi's later style in duelist.The best story in this volume is duel 1:the puzzle of the gods cause that is where it starts.The others are fair but in my favorites includes duel 4 and 5.Note this is not for kids since it's too violent,doesn't feature the cards and the names and storyline are completely different from the edited tv show."
128967,2,Does the job,"I like these tablets because you can crush them and put directly in the bag, rather than clogging up your vac motor and breathing the dust from the carpet powder.Shipping was timely. I would recommend."
128969,2,helpful study guide,I used this book to prepare for the spec ed core content exam and did very well. At first I was not impressed with the book because there was only one practic exam and the book itself is very thin but it did give me direction for studying. I would have focused on the wrong stuff if I would have tried to study on my own.
128992,2,Good addition to your Krupa library.,Very good sound quality and some unusual recordings. I never knew Krupa ever worked with a harmonica player. Includes some tracks I assumed would never make it to CD. My only negative comment is the one awful photo which looks like a photocopy.
129026,2,Liked and Disliked,"I liked and disliked this book. Mann has his character, Aschenbach, preach a little more than I like, preaching his thoughts about beauty and writing and control. That's what I disliked. For the first third of the book, I could barely force myself to keep reading. Then Aschenbach falls in love and begins to tail the object of his affection all over Venice. The story takes a different turn and the writing moves from a rant about virtue to a real story. Venice is beautifully depicted and Aschenbach becomes a real, brilliant, tortured human being. That's what I liked."
129032,2,Wonderful collection of country talent,This CD is a great collection of Country Christian artists. The title song brings a lump to your throat.
129107,2,Beautiful and Frightening,"Once again, Avey Tare, Panda Bear, Deaken and The Geologist (who actually sat this one out) have created a beaufitul mix of tribal saga and noise-pop glory. This might be a little hard to swallow for fans of Avey Tare and Panda Bear's 'Sprit They've Gone, Spirit They've Vanished', but the album shoud be seen as an evolution and maturation of the sound that made that record such a beautiful pop masterpiece. I don't know if any of this makes any sense, but believe me, this is a great album."
129133,2,The Cathedral,"As a lover of CG and a wannabe animator, this short film gave me great insperation to keep on working. this was a great animation and i highly recommend it."
129223,2,Scary!,"When this movie came out, it was the scariest thing anyone had ever seen.Alot of great horror flicks later, it is still a classic the first time you see it!If your going to be watching it for the first time, turn off the lights and lock your door!!"
129229,2,A film that puts many high budget films to shame,This was a very well edited picture and I believe that it is due to the editing that made this picture so realistic. I am more delighted that this picture put many of the high budget horror films to shame. It just goes to show that with a little ingenuity and imagination filmakers can still strike a cord with the audience. To many filmakers are out for the big dollar and lose the artistic quality that makes movies memorable.
129347,2,Stoned on Stone Ltd,Lewis Taylor is a wonderful English soul artist and thisexpanded edition of Stoned is worth checking out. It hassome great demos of songs that were on Stoned II and theguy is just an great artist. His soul style has a deepthrowback vibe rivaling great artists like the Chi-litesand Marvin Gaye with a twist of today's electronica. Hesings songs of such passion easily missing in so muchof today's disposable music. His is a talent I never tireof listening to. There are spiritual treasures on Stonedthat are timeless and influential to me.
129386,2,Great Braces!,"I just received my Thermoskin Carpal Tunnel Braces with Dorsal Stay. The delivery was very fast and the product was better than I expected. The dorsal stay makes all the difference in the world over other carpal tunnel braces. I have had several in the past that were pretty good but each had their own shortcoming. These are perfect for me. They are very comfortable and having the dorsal stay restrict the upward flexing of my wrist not only reminds me not to stretch my wrist that way, but it also prevents the bottom stay from digging into the inside of my arm hurting the very tendons that are supposed to be protected. Great product! Thanks a lot!"
129396,2,WaterWheel Paly Table,Great water toy for summer outdoor play. My 1 year old granddaughter loves pouring water and playing with the sailboats.
129405,2,Great,A n other great book about snipers that proves they can make a difference with one bullet. Thanks for all of you.
129467,2,Complete score for some great movie themes,"I bought this as a perusal book of the selections in this collection for my junior high band. The tunes and arrangements are not difficult - especially for second year players. One disappointment for me in this complete score book is that the piano part was not included. A piano accompaniment book is available separately. Included is a performance CD however. The format of this series is laid out in such a way that ""page 1"" is a solo of the tune and ""page 2"" is that instrument's orchestrated part in a full band arrangement. This conductor score uses the flute as the solo instrument followed by the complete orchestration. Selections are great for high school pep band too!"
129513,2,Exact Rainbox,I feel this is one of the best foods to feed 2 of my birds. My Cockatoo and my Sun Conure both eat it with no problems. My Cockatoo was hand raised and is now 17 years old. They do not like so much green o this is wasted.
129541,2,"Dallas or Grey, which one?","Now don't get me wrong I really liked this book, but the beginning of it was much better than the ending. Hot, HOt, HOT! Sex scenes! I like the whole Alpha-Male biker, kidnapping story line. It's a lot different from most of the Contemporary romances I've read in the past. When he was Dallas his character was totally sexy and dangerous, but as Grey, he just sort of became another romance novel character. And why oh why does every famale character have to get pregnant? For once I would love the couple just to live together, not get married, and have kids.....Well, read the book. I guarantee you'll like it. I did."
129585,2,Fave movie!,"Best. Movie. Ever. I love the historical information and the twists in this movie, it kept me interested for the entire film, LOVE IT and I'm so glad I was able to find it after years of looking. It's mine now!"
129632,2,Great Read,"I have just recently been intruduced to this author and now I want to read everything she has written. Good ,exciting reads"
129706,2,Earth & Sun & Moon meets Redneck Wonderland,"Another solid Oils album. I've been a fan since Diesel and Dust and have all their stuff. I'd rate this one toward the top of the heap. If you liked Earth & Sun & Moon, this one is more aggressive, but not nearly as aggressive as Redneck Wonderland (their masterpiece if you ask me). They've still got it."
129747,2,Love em!,"Ordered the exact same pair I've had for years. Wouldn't change. Super comfy. Definitely run large. I normally wear a 6.5 and I ordered a 36, which fits perfectly."
129771,2,Excellent crash course on ancient history,"The author approaches the subject from the perspective of one who knows little to nothing about this period in history or geographical/political area, sets out to learn it all for himself and passes the knowledge along in a very readable style."
129829,2,keeps characters and readers on their toes and guessing!,"Good and evil, dark and light swirl to gether to be become as gray as the wolf the graces the banners of house Stark. There are characters on all sides who I can't help rootingfore even though they are often on opposing sides. Of course, a character might swich causes at the next twist of the plot- you just never know. It is great!I also really enjoy the fantastic writing. I hope they put these books on audio *unabradged*!"
129887,2,MGM Masterpiece.,I am anticipating that Warner Bros will release the remastered edition of this film on DVD fairly soon. Movie Mogul Louis B. Mayer came out of the movie theatre with tears streaming down his face after seeing this one!
129925,2,Fun card making kit,Not as much fun as cars and trucks to little boys but it's a good creative outlet they can enjoy!
129929,2,cord to the omnibook,It may have worked well. It was in great shape and packaged well but I don't have a laptop and I sent it back.
129936,2,Well written but a bit heavy for me,"The book is extremely well written and is gripping for sure. Nice change with a medical twist to the thriller. My only issue with this book is that it is a little heavy overall. I coulnd't wait to finish it and be done with it. Maybe it's the medical jargon that becomes overbearing, maybe it's the plot. Just my opinion."
129956,2,Wonderful Christmas gifts,We purchased six copies of this wonderful book for our grown children and grand children as Christmas gifts. I believe they will be particularly appreciated at this uncertain time in our country. 12/08.
129992,2,Wow! The best early Sci-Fi film updated for today,"Finally, after only seeing TDTESS on TV for 40+ years, I pryed open the wallet and ordered this for my new Blu-Ray player. I ordered this along with the Blu-ray of Avatar.I will say I love both movies, but TDTESS will always be my favorite sci-fi film. This from a person who owns all the modern sci-fi films and TV series. It was such a pleasure to watch this without commercials. The blu-ray presentation is very impressive, very little grain and just awesome audio. It loaded on my blu-ray in less than 30 seconds.Remembering the first time I watched this movie, my age was about 10 years and it was on the NBC Saturday Night at the Movies. It was usually on every two years or so. Really doubt if I blinked during the entire film the first time I watched it. Didn't want to miss a millisecond of the story. Really do doubt if there will ever be a more pure example of basic sci-fi than this film."
130064,2,a fun & entertaining novel,"As an English teacher I enjoyed the Jane Austen angle. The book had great descriptions and a fun, entertaining story. It was hard to put down!"
130125,2,Ankel Wts.,Received these ankle wts. about 10 days ago and have been using ever since. The individual wts. are removal and very easy to do so. I like the idea of being adjustable for different exercises. Feel these are excellant for the price and they certainly are easy to put on.
130127,2,I love them!,"These are excellent, just make sure you don't cinch them to tight. They are great for just doing activites around the house or if you are going on a long walk. Although they are very bulky and visible."
130216,2,Great Music Toy for Infants and Toddlers!,"Out of a whole bin full of toys, my child still returns to these simple toys. If your child likes toys that make noises, buy these eggs. They are great! They make a great ""shaking"" sound and are easy for baby to hold. My child started using them around 6 months of age and would begin grinning and laughing when he discovered the noises that the eggs made--an instant hit. My child is now a year old and still loves the ""shaky eggs"". They are easy to pack, and too big to swallow, so I feel safe at letting him play with them--and the sound they make is quite pleasant--and no batteries required! Great purchase."
130223,2,Great CD-ROM! Just like the computer test,I searched a great deal to find a nice review guide and this is definitely worth it. It times you and the computer tests (there are 3 tests in it) are just like the DAT I took. It helped me a lot. -Mark
130238,2,The Illusionist soundtrack,"The music is beautifully done, it is a unique soundtrack, that enhances the movie. After buyng the CD and later buying the movie I found how the music added a layer of suspense. I really liked this CD, and recommend it."
130285,2,best star wars light saber,"I like the toy but I think the double bladed light saber is dissapoointing because only one blade lights up. I wish that the blade would retract fully and would not fall out so easily. The colors are a little off. The green is very lime green. The blue is a little too light, but the red is pretty close to the same shade in the movies. I am dissapointed to find that you cant have a purple blade or a curved hilt. I like the crystals ecspecially the green one. the blue emiiter is my favorite. Ibuilt mine a couple of days ago and its a mix of darth vaders and obi-wans. All in all Im impressed,but i wish you could have a gold hilt or purple blade."
130314,2,was it a rat I saw?,"Palindromes are, of course, words or phrases that are spelled the same backwards or forwards. ""So Many Dynamos!"" is a palindrome as well-- go ahead, spell it backwards!!Mr. Agee has collected some fantastically complicated and funny palindromes in this collection. All of them are illustrated, which add so much to the palindrome itself. For example, two rugged cowboys are running away from a huge pair of pants. ""Massive Levi's, Sam!"" one man shouts to the other. Another of my favorites is of two scientists gazing through a massively huge microscope at something on a small slide. ""snot or protons?"" asks one scientist.Making palindromes is no easy task, though there are hundreds of them. Mr. Agee has proven himself brilliant by not only putting them together, but illustrating some rather difficult ones that then make perfect sense (I'll let you find out what ""No! Put egg getup on!"" means...!!)"
130324,2,wrong about the Haw,"to me. Hee Haw is no different than Laugh-In which had some some pretty bad jokes. At least on Hee Haw you had some damn fine music. I too was raised on Hee Haw and classic country, which I consider to be heads and shoulders better than that crap that passes for country today. You couldnt do Hee Haw today with all the agents etc. So these are gems, gems I tell yo..Anybody who doesnt like Hee Haw but loves Laugh-In I loses all credibility with me"
130384,2,"Great Stories, never gets boring",All seasons of The Closer are great. You get addicted very quickly. I've really enjoyed watching this series especially for free with Prime.
130477,2,A wonderful series -- great for all families,"I love that this video series features children of all ages and many ethnicities -- so welcome in our bi-racial household. My kids love repeating after Bao Bei and friends. This DVD series makes my kids WANT to learn more Chinese and encourages my kids to use the vocabulary they learn here. We can't decide which DVD we like best in the series (you can watch them in any order), so our family recommends you get them all."
130483,2,Just read the translation...,"As a student of New Testament Greek I have been impressed by the accuracy of the translation of this Bible since I was directed to it by my professor, who happens to be Greek. He reccomended this version as a good example of how to stay true to the Greek text, but strongly cautioned us to ignore the footnotes because the person who worte them was very obviously not of the same level of expertise as the translators. After spending time with this Bible I can wholeheartedly second his opinion. I give it four stars because of the quality of the translation, but the biased and inaccurate footnotes cost it the fifth star."
130511,2,Death By Venom,"Kay threatened to Kill Grant when she caught him kissing another Girl. But could she? Did She? Brittany only knew that her best friend was a prime suspect in the terrifying murder--- and so was she! After all, she'd discovered Grant's bosy, seen the look on his face......"
130559,2,Performed as advertised,"I bought this item because our Church video projector would display rolling lines as it projected the video on the screen. I could remove the ground using a plug adapter and the lines would go away. However, removing the ground would remove any protection for our $8,000 projector. I read about ground loops on the internet and saw this product. We received the HUM X last week and tried it on our projector. It worked great. Lines are gone and our project is still grounded thru the HUM X. So far, I would highly recommend trying the product out."
130588,2,Definitely worth a read,"I can't figure out why so many earlier reviewers have trashed this book. It's a lovely, empowering book. Read the excerpts and judge for yourself. Don't be put off this book by a few nasty reviewers with an axe to grind."
130629,2,A Very Different Book Than I would Have Imagined,"I read Lawrence Bloch's Hitman series and I though this would be the European version, but was I wrong! The Bloch books focused in more on the witty comments and action between Keller and his handler.Booth's book is focused on a previously unknown aspect of a high profile assissination (I won't spoil it for you) that no one really thinks about before.The main character, Mr. Buttefly, is well written and complex as is the plot. I never could guess where the next chapter would lead, much less the book. The other supporting cast are equally enthralling and layered.This book reminds of a cross between A Year in Provence and A John LeCarre spy novel."
130635,2,the protector's war,Continues an entertaining story and is filled with lots of action. Does a good job of following the characters you're interested in.
130641,2,Based on a True REVIEW,"Wow, great voice and songs. Amazing that she is not as hot as Kelly or Carrie."
130671,2,changing for the better,"ok...first of all...for all you people that say underOATH has played out and is just appealing to ""13 yr old girls"" so they can create a larger fan base....never ever call yourself an underOATH fan....if you cant listen to the band for what they are and what they've become then you dont take to change very well....yes underOATH has turned into a more emo based screamo band....but theyve gone thru their share of vocalist and how can you not change a bit after that.....for one i think underOATH is rockin it out hardcore still and it doesnt seem like they plan to quit....they're kickass live and they make the best cds ive ever heard..and to all of you that still follow underOATH and think they are still good, keep it up and dont lose your faith or you'll become like everyone else that thinks they've played out"
130672,2,The African Queen,"When I first watched this movie many years ago, I thought it was just a war story. I didn't realize until much later it is truly a great love story. I really enjoy watching it over & over. Kathryn Hepburn as a prim & proper lady & Humphrey Bogart as a, gee, I don't know exactly how to describe him, a lovable, independant guy, who likes his liquor, but has great compassion for a lady in distress. What can I say, but it's a # 10 in my book."
130752,2,Decent shaver for the price,"This shaver is basically the same as the ES4026NC with a more business looking color scheme. I don't care for the nose trimmer that come with it. The shaver is comforable to hold and fairly quiet comparing to the Brauns because of the counter directional blades. It works well wet or dry if one shaves every day just like any other foil shaver. I like it for the ease of maintenance by washing it under the faucet. It is not made for a travel shaver because it has no traveling case, larger body/curve head susceptible to damage and large power charger. I bring my Braun while I travel which is more compact. It will work for several days depending how long you shave without the charger but you have to remember to get a full charge before the trip. For $15 less, the ES4026NC is a better value unless you really want this color. It is made for US market so no international voltage either."
130776,2,Homer Bass made me cry,"Let's admit we've all credited dialogue to our dogs, and with great pleasure. It's a means of giving voice to the deep connection we share with our pets. For writers the next natural step is crediting poems to our dogs. And if you own a dog, you'll race through these with the same delectation.The writers' obvious displacement of human emotion onto their dogs is laughable in poems like ""Full Neurological Work-up"" by Padgett Powell's dog Spode and ""Rain"" by Amy Hempel's dog Audie. But my personal favorite was The Odyssey by Rick Bass' dog Homer. I cried."
130797,2,A different venue for Gordianus and family..,A nice lifestyle change for Gordianus with the coming of ago of his sons...and the intrigue of drawing him back to Rome...it has modern overtones..of sea change in ancient Rome
130818,2,BIG River Band,"I don't care that the video quality isn't perfect, I'm not a snob, it was filmed in 1981! It's 1981 quality! The sound through my home theater speakers is excellent and the performances were spot on. The vocals and harmonies sound killer! This DVD rocks!"
130844,2,A Bizarre Thriller.,"When a Child Psychologist (John Lithgow in a Over the Top Performance), who was a Spilt Personality, he also Kidapped Children to study under the control of his abused father (Also Lithgow). Then, it`s gets complicated-When his Wife (Lolita Davidovich) caught him and finds out his secert, While he did kidapped his daughter but his wife is Unfaithful, while is she falling in love with her old flame (Steven Bauer).Written and Directed by Brain De Palma (Sisters, Phantom of the Paradise, Carrie) is not for the Faint-Hearted. A true Mixed-Bag at Best but Those who enjoy Lithgow Bizarre Performance will have a great time with this Oddball Thriller. Grade:A-."
130854,2,Must Have,A complete history written by the most laid back drummer in rock history. Mason is the one constant in Floyd and the only member of the band who could do its legacy full justice. The photos alone are worth the price of the book. The section on Syd is honest and respectful and of course the determination of Gilmour and Mason to keep the band going is riveting. It should never be underestimted how difficult emotionally and logistically that decision was. All fans of the band should take a look.
130856,2,"Exit, Voice & Loyalty","Swell book, full of fresh ideas (though written 40 years ago). Real eye-opener in terms of helping me to give a shape and structure to fragmentary thoughts and feelings I had on this topic before...The only remark I have concerns a technical issue - transport of the book:Although I got the book OK and quickly (despite I live overseas), I found the book lying at my door - which is not quite usual in my country; it could have been lost very easily (as there unfortunately are lots of thieves)...Please consider instructing your transport company (UPS?) to keep the delivery at their nearest office (where I could pick it up) when I'm not at home."
130947,2,Only Book I've Re-read,"I'm not a reader. I bought this book because every time I went to the bookstore I could not take my eyes off the cover. Then I read the opening pages and could NOT put it down. Over the last 20 years, I've read and re-read this book a number of times. It is compelling."
130992,2,Zapp! A great resource.,This book is great for helping managers and superivors see the difference between building a team and dictating to individuals. The story line is used effectively in communicating the damage done by negative thinking and stale attitudes. I recommend it for group reading and discussion.
130997,2,Another reason why you should get a Cube.,This thing sounded like it would be a battery hog and a waste of money.It took a little convincing from some people who owned one until I found I was wrong.This thing is awesome!It rocks!Its really convenient if you love to play video games for an hour or 2 but dont want to worry about a cord and dont like having to sit in one place all the time.It makes it a lot less frustrating.The batteries last a long time with this.A lot longer than if you use batteries on a Game Boy Advance.All the games I have are even more enjoyable now that Im more physically comfortable playing them. The only bad thing about it is that I wish there was a wireless thing like this for N64 also but this Cube thing is absolutely flawless.A perfect 10.I guarantee youll fall in love with it.
131000,2,Blanket,"Once again brought this for my kids father he loved it. Ben is one of his favorite players, so I brought it for him. But could've made the Ben on the white jersey a lil bit better. Ben in the black jersey is fine. But he still loved it tho."
131205,2,Great buy,"This TV is every bit as good, if not better than my parents Sony Bravia they paid twice as much for. The delivery was flawless and it was easy to set up ourselves. We did need to purchase high quality HDMI and audio cables. This is a fantastic buy."
131208,2,"Review by W. James Antle, III, Senior Writer for ENTER STAGE","The idea that only lawyers and other train professionals are qualified to understand the Constitution is possibly the biggest reason it has become a ""living document"" that is more like a dead letter. Upholding the Constirution and its limits on the federal government is in fact incumbent upon every American. In Three Score and Thirteen, James B. Plair does this essential duty. Along with his wife Sally, who served as his editor for this project, Plair outlines the actual text of the Constitution and amplifies its meaning with the help of quotations from The Federalist Papers, an important series of essays by Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and James Madison that helps us understand the Framers' intentions.

131220,2,An interesting thriller,"The Jacket is a well acted movie and has a great premise. It's long at some parts, but still hold's the audience's attention. Knightly's American accent is not her best though."
131249,2,So Funny,"When I saw the previews for this show I was not impressed, looked like it could be silly and just another short lived fill in comedy.I caught the first episode and thought it was good with potential and it has not let me down. It could have easily fallen into the same old jokes about the scientists/nerds but is alot more than that. Leonard, who is probably the most ""normal"" is wonderful in his expressions and being somewhere between the geek and normal.If you have not seen this show due to its title or premise, do yourself a favor a catch an episode or two."
131363,2,Wow very rare does a sophomore album rank above the first,I have been waiting for this album forever picking it up today and man they rock and the guitar work on this album is solid no guitarist in rock can touch Tom Morello right now.. Don't have a favorite song because I view this album as a master piece through beginning till end ... Thank you Chris Cornell and the Tom Morello and the rest of the band for making music rock again and on a mature level!!!!
131366,2,Rock Star DVD,i like the movie and it was sent and received by me while stationed in Iraq in a timely manner. Thanks.Rock Star
131384,2,It Works!,"I read that this would enable me to solder galvanized flashing...it does! I used an electric iron and solid core solder. I cleaned greasy residue off of metal applied Ruby fluid and hot iron followed with solder and the results were a solid solder connection,"
131390,2,Time tested for centuries,"Everybody seems to have new ideas about the optimal diet, but new concepts like low fat or low carb don't have centuries of success behind them like the Mediterranean Diet does.I follow the 2000 calories per day menu and recipes, and my weight continues to drop slowly while my blood test results have improved dramatically. On a low fat diet, my triglycerides were high and my HDL was low. After a month of using these recipes, my HDL shot up to over 50 while my triglycerides dropped to 70 and my total cholesterol was at a healthy 190. I'm sold.In addition, the recipes are simple, delicious, inexpensive, and easy to prepare. Unlike low fat and low carb diets, I don't feel like I'm depriving myself of anything, and I know I can comply with these guidelines long term."
131508,2,PATRICK SWAYZE,This is an earlier movie and onethat I like very much. Amreplacing my Swayze vhs tapeswith dvd's.
131519,2,move over bubba,Man I am glad I saw it on the sci fi channel! It is a comic relief though.It is sssoooo dumb that it's good. Anyway worth a see good luck if yours is black comedy you will love it!!!!
131531,2,The beach is nature's playground,"If you can't go to the beach this is the next best thing. The Sand and Water play table gives every opportunity to build sandcastles, pass toy vehicles over bridges, splash and play in water and sand (and, after a while, a mix of the two). The cover protects it at night from insects and rain, and the umbrella protects the little ones from hot sun."
131637,2,Almost half off....,"The price of that big blue box! Yeah...my hat one! This movie came very well packaged and easy to open. There is so so much bonus material! That's the best part if these bug sets. The 3D disc was a bonus! I'm not a movie critic, so I won't give you my opinions on any movies. I only speak to the packaging and over all value. Thanks for your time. Oh... The digital copy is awesome too!"
131654,2,Great buy!,"I bought this for my fiancé for his birthday, the only downfall is that it is the only movie he ever wants to watch! Overall, it was a great gift, especially for those who love the Alien series!"
131738,2,Fantastic camera...at least for me,I bought this camera in 2001 for $500. That was alot of money but I have gotten my moneys worth and then some with this camera. I love everything about it. I just recently decided to purchase more megapixels for my scrapbooking but thought long and hard about it before doing this. I read reviews and searched for cameras and finally decided to stay with the nikon. I bought a coolpix p4 from Best Buy and got the extended warranty but so far I LOVE this camera also. I am so sorry it got bad reviews. I have a fantastic camera here that I am going to sell and don't even know if I want to do that as I have loved it so much. For me Nikon has been great.
131759,2,**********SNOOP DOGG AT HIS BEST!!!**************,"I PICCED UP THIS ALBUM THE DAY IT CAME OUT AND I MUST SAY I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED AT ALL. THIS IS THE SNOOP DOGG I MISS, HITTIN U UP WITH THAT REAL GANGSTA SHHH!!!!!!!! THE SONG ""KEEP IT REAL"" TO ME IS THE BEST TRACC ON THERE ALONG WITH ""EASTSIDE"". THIS CD IS DEFINENTLY A CLASSIC. IF YOU HAVE NOT PICCED UP, GET IT!!! I LIKED HIM MORE WITH DEATH ROW AND THIS WAS WORTH MY MONEY!! THATS REAL. THE ALBUM FEATURES: DAZ DILLINGER, KURUPT,NATE DOGG, THREAT,THE TWINZ,WARREN G,DR DRE,MACK 10,TECHNIEC,TRAY DEE,BAD AZZ,SWOOP G,SOOPAFLY,AND BIGG PIMPIN. HOLLA AT THE SH**."
131773,2,Great Album!!,"This is a great album. My favorite songs on the record are ""For Free"", with its beautiful use of piano and cello, and ""Morning Morgantown"". Joni's original version of ""Woodstock"", however, is not very good, on account of its slowed-down electric piano accompanyment and the weird yolduling ejaculation at the end. While not quit up to par with later albums such as ""Court & Spark (my personal favorite)or ""Blue"", this album is still a great album and worthy of purchase."
131884,2,Very well written.,"this book is very well written, easy to follow, with a lot of topics, and the derivations are shown thoroghly and in detail. One of the best estimation books I used. This book is recommended for both beginners andadvanced in estimation theory."
131924,2,RETRO SURF BLAST !!!!,"I really, really, really, enjoyed this CD the first time I put it on. I like it even more with repeated listening. The thing thats different about ""Thrills and Chills"" is the variety of themes woven into this recording. It goes from spooky 60's flavored Halloween tunes to 50's exotica, to ear blasting surf and then to spy jazz. But it works!!! Totally different styles but they all blend perfectly into the same genre. I've bought a lot of CD's that have TRIED to do the same thing BUT THESE GUYS PULL IT OFF WITH STYLE. My only complaint is with the 11 tracks it should have been longer. I WANT MORE!"
131930,2,"Fast Delivery, Great Condition",The DVD arrived with just a couple days and was in the exact condition described. I would definitely buy from these guys again!
131984,2,Nobody's Child,I love watching true life movies. I found this movie quite good. As we know that in society today anything can be accomplished when we open up help to those who need it. In this movie there is an mentally abuse child who is very intelligent but has been abused to believing she is incapable of achieving. A strong will and curiousity prevails to societys advantage when given the chance.
131989,2,"Very Fast, Even Toasting","Very fast toasting even at lower settings. (2/9) Considering its wide/long slots and speed/darkness of toast, it might be better suited for bagels than sliced bread. Not recommended if your countertop space is tight or you prefer lighter/white toast. Nice polished glossy finish which can be high-maintenance.KitchenAid KTT570OB 4-Slice Digital Toaster with Bagel, Warm, and Frozen Functions, Onyx Black"
132014,2,It's functional,"I like this portable changing pad because I can open & unfold it with one hand while holding the baby in the other. It has just enough padding to keep baby comfortable for the few moments (s)he will be horizontal. I wish the tags would come off more cleanly or were attached to the ""outside"" so that remnants aren't right up against baby's head (or feet, depending on which way you lay baby). Hook & latch closure is strong enough to stay closed, but easy enough to separate when necessary."
132071,2,Challenging,"I have the Kana version. Romaji is not used. All words are defined in English. Naratives are in Kana and Kanji. Kanji the first few times are explained in Kana. Many proper nouns, if not all, are in Kanji. The Exercises often use vocabulary from the first book, so if you haven't memorized this earlier Vocabulary, one can waste time looking for definitions. This takes away from the learning process. I would prefer the glossery include the prior Book(s) vocabulary (that is, book II including both glosseries I and II, combined. The subject matter is sufficiently diverse. At times in the exercises they include a word that is simular to one in the story but may not unrelated to the story. A learning plus. It is quite a challenge to read 3 foreign sylabets, learn new vocabulary, and new grammar. A good teacher can make the difference."
132074,2,Henson at his best.,"A favorite of the families for years, the Dark Crystal has sub messages worth the viewing by all ages. Good addition to an library."
132134,2,STILL RUST-FREE AFTER A YEAR!,"I have owned this can opener for over a year now and it is still rust-free. I generally wash it by hand after use and dry, but sometimes put in the dishwasher and no problem. Highly recommend. It's good to know you have a reliable manual can opener in the event of a power outage also."
132247,2,Emre Osmanlar's Review for Leo Tolstoy's Anna Karenina,"Fascinating soundtrack for a fascinating story!One can travel through the Imperial Russia and the experience the best of Russian music by well known composers such as Tchaikovsky. This soundtrack of Anna Karenina is as good as the dramatic story of Tolstoy's, including works of the Might Five conducted by reknown Sir Georg Solti. High quality music for the funs of the romatic era."
132257,2,Must Read,Alex Cross is back in James Patterson's newest novel. This is a book that is compelling. The reader is left with the desire to keep reading at the end of each chapter. The chapters are short and to the point. I was glad to see James Patterson also brought back all the familiar characters back from the other Alex Cross books.This is a true mystery because I was not able to figure out who the killer was until the very end. I love those types of books. I recommend this book to any person that loves murder mysteries.
132300,2,Good,"I think this book is good, maybe lacking in a couple of ways. But the descriptions were excellent, and I don't think it was really meant to scare anyone, I think it was to show the differences between day and night with the main character."
132365,2,Stunning verse,"Voisine's book of poems deserves much attention. It is, by my reckoning, among the top twenty collections of American poetry published in the last five years. Though her forms and contents are unlike the following poets, Voisine brings to mind the power and scope of Alan Shapiro, Louise Gluck, and perhaps Edward Hirsch from an earlier era. Everyone should read books like this; failing that, anyone interested in reading or writing poems should pick this one up."
132415,2,"A Fun Return to the ""Hercules"" Genre","This is my favorite of the Film Crew releases so far. The movie has the same easy hooks for riffing as the MST3K Hercules episodes (The frighteningly small costumes, plenty of man-on-man ""wrestling"", wooden acting, and laughable effects and editing). The bumper scenes with the actual Crew outside of the movie are OK, but obviously not as well done as the MST3K setup and characters."
132419,2,easy to install,"I replaced all six of my home's older FireX units with this detector. Because the prior units were pre-wired and already linked, I purchased the quick connect adapter and swapped everything out in less than 1 hour. My advice is to wear ear protection when you are installing these as they give a short alarm when you activate the battery and when you hook into the electrical system. The units tested perfectly and all of them alarm when one is activated. No problems after one week of being up and running."
132438,2,My favorite Book,I read this book three times. I'm going to download it on my kindle and read it a fourth time. This book is an example of superior writing skills. The story line is so fascinating! All elementary and high school students should be encouraged to read this book. Steven Spielberg should make this into a movie. I know most Americans didn't know there were black folks living in Germany during the Hitler regime.
132447,2,Must've Been the Tractor Tavern,"My buddies and I were lucky enough to check these guys out playing a country set at the Tractor Tavern, just down from where they live in Seattle. One of the best shows I've ever seen. These guys love what they do and it shows everytime they play. I heard an advance copy of this album out at the Lucky 13 in SF, and I gotta say, I got just as excited (and drunk) and I did when I saw them live."
132537,2,satisfying,"this is the second brunetti mystery i've read. i really enjoyed the characters, the memories of venice it evokes, and the solid ""europeanness"" of the plot. i highly recommend this book as a fun read."
132542,2,Archie & the crew are back!,"It was great to see Archie, Dingbat, Meathead and Little Goil again. I hadnt seen any of these charactersin many years, and they are as funny & relevant today as they were 40 yrs ago. The dvd was clear as a bell,and it came within a week of purchase. As usual, Amazon comes through again!"
132543,2,Sam Jones Rules!,"Ignore the reviews from those dullards in Illinois and Connecticut! Lauren Henderson's mysteries are clever, witty and a whole lot of fun. There are not many books that have me chuckling aloud as I read, but Black Rubber Dress and Freeze My Margarita certainly did. I loved those books so much, I went to Bibliofind and hunted down the rest of the Sam Jones series. If you're looking for a fun read and aren't too strait-laced, you'll really enjoy Sam Jones."
132559,2,A great expansion the article in Yankee by the same author,"This book is an expanded telling of the story Mr. Howe wrote for Yankee. I climbed Mt. Washington shortly after the original story. I went better prepared for the weather, thanks to Mr. Howe, and was able to assist a member of our climbing party to the ""lake of the clouds"" AMC hut (with the help of the hut staff and a cell phone). The fog seemed more like a dark blanket that shrunk the world to a few yards. A mile seemed like hundreds stopping every few feet while a fellow with a heart problem stopped to rest. After reading the original article I never considered leaving the man behind. I only wondered if he would be added to the list of those who died. I awaited this book for a few years. I met Mr. Howe at the Capitol City Dinner in Concord, NH after reading the Yankee article. Thank you sir for a great read. Thank you also for the stories that convinced me to better prepare for Mt. Washington. You may have saved a life perhaps two."
132655,2,awesome unit and i have owned them all,"This is hands down the best compact unit on the market. Unlike all 7&quot; models, it does not have a huge cumbersome battery. All important remote functions are available on the unit itself. The picture quality is outstanding and it is virtually impossible to make the unit skip. BUY THIS MODEL...YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!"
132732,2,Very Pleased,I was Very pleased with this purchase. The book arrived sooner than I expected and was in excellent condition. I have no complaints about the porduct nor the company.
132735,2,i think this c.d is really worth getting.,This C.D is really good and fun to listen to. The songs all have a good beat and I just really enjoy it and I'm sure anyone else would too!
132756,2,Far better than other DS9 attempts but not Graf's best,"It was Time's Enemy that made me read this book. Though A.S. is full of the same unique detailed 'realism' style that you can only find in a Graf novel, it is nowhere near the same standard as Time's Enemy - which is what I see as Graf on peak form. Technical detail, realistic suspense, no over-the-top melodrama that is found in other Trek novels... All of these trademarks were there but sometimes you just got the feeling that the story was trying to prolong itself for no reason. I found myself 'jolting' through the middle chapters. Still, as mentioned by others, an ideal read for a Sunday afternoon and worth it for any Graf fans."
132766,2,One Two Many!,I was fortunate enough to be one of the first to see this movie at its Red Carpet opening! A truly unforgettable event! A brilliant concept with John at his finest. I did want him stutter more. Ms Bellamy was beautiful to watch. You have to see it to believe it!
132767,2,Second to none!,"I have read this book over and over again to absorb all the information! It is so good and contain a wealth of information. Comparing it wit the books by Danja and Annmarie Kohler, Mark Webster and Jim Church's book on composition, this one comes in as a clear first. Mark Webster's book is a relatively close runner up, but it is Marin's book that always join me on my trips and elsewhere. Photography in all books is good but Martin provides the most and best information. Jim's book is a waste of money compared to the rest. Overprized with very little hard info. Just a ton of mumbojumbo. The book by Koehler is ok, but way behind Webster, and in particular. Edge's books! Get it and love it!"
132776,2,A Family Classic,"Well, I probably cannot praise this book enough. I was first introduced to this book when my daughter was in kindergarten. I could not tell you how many times she checked this book out of the library. So many, in fact, the entire family was tired of reading it to her. But still, whenever I mention it to her, she smiles. And my son makes it into a game. Who can remember the lines? I think we've actually added soldiers to the story. The rhythm and rhyme of the story is just perfect. The illustrations are beautiful. They are so vivid and bright. This goes down as a classic for our family."
132827,2,A GREAT REFERENCE FOR DRAWING,This book has help me with my figure drawing a great deal. I see a big difference in my art work.This book is in my top 5 try it it doe's the body good!!! see ya...
132833,2,Frost's treasure,"Robert Frost has a world-wide admiration. And in this book, you can find all his poems grouped neatly in sections connecting them to the place they are written in. So to put it in a nut shell, it is just what you are looking for if you want to buy something you won't regret."
132870,2,Black & Decker ASI1300 Air Station Inflator,I am very pleased with this product. It is not that noisy as some people have claimed.
132933,2,An Excellent overview for the serious beginner.,"What this book gives is a broad picture of what you are trying to achieve when you play chess. It takes you above the region of move by move analysis and sets you the task of viewing the game as a strategic whole. If you can grasp this high level view of the game of chess, you have a better chance of improving your game. This is a book about the thinking behind chess and the strategy element, as opposed to tactics.Very short, very readable and entertaining, and a useful companion to quite a high level."
132981,2,You already know,"You already know this is the greatest SF TV series ever, or you wouldn't bother reading these reviews to see if everyone agrees with you. I won't give you any ratings for the episodes, because we all (and you know who we are) like every single episode - just some better than others. Now to the important stuff.1) The episodes transfered well to DVD. The sound and images are clear and no obvious changes were made to anything.2) The menu interface is interesting the first few times you use it, then it gets cumbersome.3) The extra content is decent, but I would have preferred commentary by someone actually connected with the show. The Okuda twins didn't come along until TNG, if I'm not mistaken.4) Find the Easter Eggs. Each set has them.Thanks to my lovely wife for getting this set for me. You should all be so lucky.LLAP"
133001,2,Great Thief Game,"Sly Cooper is about a thief who goes around and steals stuff with his buddies. The graphics were great, sound was great, gameplay was great, and story was great. You should check out Sly Cooper, it will be worth the while."
133025,2,greenes,We have a 40 pound dog. Every morning when we leave for work we pull out one teenie greenie and our dog goes right to her kennel. We do not buy the recommended size for her. The small are used as a treet which she likes. Her breath is always good.
133051,2,Best of Beethoven Indeed,"CD contains some of the most famous and most played songs by B.for the money, we are robbing Beethoven nowdays.Great buy !!."
133061,2,"These are a ""must not miss"" for kids and grownups alike","I grew up in the states, but my parents lived for a time in Europe before having a family and spent many hours in book shops(their hobby). Forty-some years ago my mother (whose taste in literature was instinctive and impeccable)found a boxed set for me (who knows where) and I have memories of that being the best Christmas present I ever got. They were charming, sensitive, adorable, witty little stories that withstand the test of time admirably. The characters are unforgettable; they let their hearts out to play in a way that readers young(and old)can empathize with. And the best part is - I get to share them with my daughter, now."
133065,2,Let's never forget...,"Another great episode. The historic background in which the plot is developed around is another shameful chapter in Humanity's history-Bosnian War (1992-1995), and the story develops around two sisters who survived the atrocities of that conflict and a war criminal in hiding whom are suddenly thrown in each others paths for one last time. Mystery, suspense, sadness, shame, despair... are feelings that are respectfully not resolved in the last fifteen minutes but there is a little justice at the end, achieved only by the tenacity of Chief Superintendent Jane Tennison."
133068,2,This band should be FAMOUS !!!!,"This puts bands like Nebula, Queens of the Stoneage, & the Hellacopters to shame. These guys rock harder and more unashamedley than any group of would be Kings in Santas Service. too bad the guitar player left to join a kiddie band like Danzig... a crying shame."
133100,2,Best Floss in the World,"This really is the best floss. For years I used the cheapest floss in the store, but suddenly over the past couple of years everything shreds when I floss, from the store brand to the name brand samples from my dentist. Every other floss out there just feels too thick between my teeth, then gets stuck and shreds, my mouth ends up feeling dirtier when I'm finished flossing than when I started. Oral B Essential floss feels great and works great.I feel like a crazy person for making a big deal about flossing, but seriously, when I run out of my essential and use the back up floss, I absolutely hate it. It's a frustrating experience every time."
133123,2,Powerful,"This CD is full of great songs. Martina's voice is excellent!! ""Good Bye"" tops the list for me. It's a great emotional song about saying goodbye to someone. I also think ""There You Are"" is gorgeous. Way to go, Martina!"
133128,2,Excellent taste,"I cannot comment on price because this is not sold locally; however, I can comment on taste. These are so simple to cook and healthy. I found a really good lentil soup recipe to use these in."
133249,2,Best I've tried.,"This scrub is really granularly. A smooth and uniform granular scrub. I use an electric razor, which can cause a rash on my neck. This scrub works to toughen my skin so i don't rash anymore."
133251,2,Good case,"This is a sturdy and durable case, not so pretty as others I have seen out there, but it's a nice red color and gives the right protection for the Gnote. Mine has fallen several times and still good as new."
133255,2,serenity,Excellent Halperin CD. You can get lost in the waves. Great for relaxing or just chilling while you do other things.
133296,2,The BEST Investment ever!,"These highchairs are by far the best available. I just had my third child, let me tell you, I wish they made these when my first 2 were born! Easy to clean, VERY safe and sturdy!! Adjustments are wonderful. If anyone complains about these highchairs, they are crazy. I just bought 2 more for my cousins who are expecting. WORTH THE MONEY, How could you put a price tag on your childs safety and being able to keep the chair clean within seconds. I wipe my chair down with wet wipes, I personally have the white leatherette chair. EXCELLENT!! I would recommend everyone to at least look at these chairs and try them. I am very picky about where my children's tooshies sit,but I have to recommended this for everyone."
133377,2,Original Clarks were better,"The price was great.I bought my first Clarks from Glick Shoe in PA around 1970. Wow, what a great feeling! They were made in England.The new Clarks are not made in England. The leather is not as resistant to scuff marks. Also, the soles are thicker and give the feeling of less stability. It is like the effect of fastening blocks to the soles, only the wobbling effect is less noticeable, of course."
133505,2,convenient,My main reason I bought this was for the separate nap setting which allows me to set the alarm during the day for a nap without changing the normal alarm settings I use in the morning. The display brightness is fine for me. I don't use the radio so I'm not a good judge of its quality.
133530,2,Awesome CD!!,"This is really a great CD. And I'm not just saying that because they're my favorite band. I love all the songs. If you liked any of the other The Donnas songs or albums, you should really get this. Now! (Oh, and because I'm young, don't say I don't know what I'm talking about.)"
133550,2,Integrity,"Received item as described, fast delivery, will purchase from vendor againThank youM Haynes"
133603,2,Help Your Kids Get it Done Right at Home and School!,"Love the book, easy reading not boring it was easy to comprehend. I bought it for my daughter and grandson. I wish it was available when my children were small. Thanks"
133622,2,An enjoyable read!!,"I picked up this book at the grocery store when I was desperate for something to read while visiting relatives. What a joy! Although this was my first Jan Jeffry novel, it's not my last!Jane Jeffry and her friend Shelly Nowack offer some laughs while they work to solve a crime. In this case they signed up to take a gardening class when the instructor is attacked and the substitute instructor is killed. While Jane juggles house work, raising children and a gardening class, her and her friend work to solve a the murder.If I could rate it a 4+ I would have done that or a 5-. Mainly because I thought the ending was a little bit abrupt. However, it was a great read and I'm buying more of her books today.Enjoy."
133642,2,Great,"It has made a big difference in our breathing. My wish is they should have a model which we can use per room, preferably wall hanging one. Expensive but worth every dollar."
133648,2,A voice that touches the heart,"After hearing this recording, I simply cannot understand the perception, shared even by Gerald Moore, that McCormack was less than comfortable in Grand Opera. Was he then merely a brilliant purveyor of popular Irish songs and ballads? On the evidence here, a profound 'NO'. In any medium, McCormack's voice and artistry strike at the heart with such a keenly spiritual richness. An Irish Gigli? Yes. He is to voice what Kreisler is to violin. It is an unforgettable experience to hear him here, and most especially in the deep night when all is still and the heart knows no boundaries of either time or space but only its own special yearning. I am so glad I bought this."
133696,2,Tulis heel cups,"I had been to the store and purchased 3 different kinds of heel cups, heel pad, gel pad, etc...nothing worked. Since wearing the Tulis heel cups the pain has gradualy subsided and I am back to walking pretty ""normal"". I no longer compensate for that pain when my heel would hit and step on the ball of the foot like I was doing. Back to letting the heel hit."
133718,2,Worked just as promised although not as I expected,"First off, the upgrade is really just a chip that you insert into the printer. This chip allows the printer to print double-sided. I didn't realize this and at first thought I had been ripped off because I was expecting another tray or component that attached to the printer or something. But following the instructions, the chip worked great and my printer started printing double-sided just fine. Really nice to have a printer that is in color and can do double-sided."
133730,2,POP POP!,This toy is just crazy fun. The little ones love to push it around and feel and hear the popping. Brings lots of laughter and smiles.
133774,2,great memories,I use to watch this film as a child and now I can enjoy it with my own children. I love it.
133775,2,what a great little movie!,Children and parents alike have loved this in our family. The music is fun and the animation is adorable. What a shame this is so hard to find. Worth the price to buy used!
133793,2,T,Tuesdays with Maurie gives you insight on how to live a great life without having to fear death. Truely a wonderful book that has changed my perspective on death and living.
133799,2,A must read!,"Albom captures the essence of reality in this quick read about his former professor, Morrie. I have read this book numerous times since it was first released. It moved me to the point of purchasing this book over and over again for friends, family, and even professors that needed to hear, see, and experience Morrie. Well done!"
133819,2,Book Hit Home,"Fortuitous. I could not help thinking of an old (departed) friend as I read Tuesdays with Morrie. A mentor to many outdoors women and men. A common man, knowledgeable with a gift for beautiful, expressive prose. Not one to give up hope from prostrate cancer. ""Things will be better,"" he said as he was helped down a short trail to the river. Comfortably posited in a canoe, he was paddled back in time. His last trip. Six months later he died. The best years of his life were the early decades of the 20th Century. He lived in the wilds of the Adirondack mountains with ""Friend Noah,"" the hermit of Cold River Flow. Richard Smith's years are chronicled in a warm and well-received book entitled LIFE WITH NOAH. The author did an outstanding job. The book could be a movie. A spiritual testimony that carries a special message to women and men that friends are special treasures never to be forgotten."
133847,2,Essential Reading For Napoleon Buffs,"For readers of Napoleonic history, and those who want to get the 'feel' of the moment when Napoleon was fighting his last battle (Waterloo), one cannot think of a better source than Stendhal's ""The Charterhouse of Parma"". The book is as captivating as ""The Red and the Black"", and in both stories the most unforgettable characters are the older women in love with the main protogonists."
133875,2,One of the two best of the Radio Disney series,"I bought this CD when I noticed it had 'Miracles Happen' on it. When I took a closer look, I was much happier.The best songs on this CD are definitely Halfway around the Worlss, by the A-Teens (one of the best singing groups EVER!), Perfect Day by Hoku, (nice and bouncy, Hoku's got a great voice) I'm Blue by Eiffel 65 (It's just a good song, period) Miracles Happen (very inspirational) and SpinninA round (Jump 5 definitely has talent.The rest of the songs are just as good (Aaron Carter kind of ruined it, though) The only CD as good as this was Jams 5!"
133876,2,Fun to share with the kids,The funny thng about watching these videos after (ahem) 20+ years is forgetting the original videos that Al satirizes. Found myself looking for the videos on IYouTube with the kids. Good for some laughs all around.
133886,2,Wicca For Couples-Excellent!!,"Wicca for Couples by AJ Drew is, in my opinion, a must read for any and all Wicca couples and for those that will someday be a couple. Drew makes the fine point that the cornerstone of Wicca is the family and offers advice on Wicca for that family.I read Wicca for Couples and immediatley shared it with my wife. The book gave rise to many, many discussions that allowed us to realign our relationship. We were close to celebrating our 27th wedding anniversary at the time. We continue to use Wicca for Couples as a guide in our magical and mundane relationship.I heartfully recommend Wicca for Couples.Blessed Be,"
133966,2,I never wanted it to end.,"What woman wouldn't love Gabriel? Just the thought of having someone watch over me the better part of my life, sent chills through me. Good chills. Gabriel watched Sara grown into a beautiful (though sad) young woman. When all hope was gone and she felt as though she couldn't take it anymore, she tried to take her life. Gabriel stops her in the guise of her guardian angel. Sara went from thinking she was worthless, to knowing she was loved. Their story of love contiued to grow from that point. Sara is very innocent in the ways of.......well everything. Gabriel is just the man to help her grow and learn. Is it his fault he just happens to be a vampire? This book brings a smile to my face and warm feelings of love to my heart everytime I think of it. A must read!"
133968,2,ink,They had quick service and good prices. The item was exactly as described from your site.Thanks for offering this item online!
133976,2,Greatest thing since sliced bread,"I have had this watch for about 4 years and I cannot imagine being without it. Knowing exactly what time it is the best feeling. I am spoiled by this technology. I get so many compliments on its design and while I do enjoy the design, the technology is what has me hooked. You cannot go wrong with this watch."
133991,2,Excellent music - 1 bad track,"Hi,Susan Vega is still doing well, both in concert and in print. Her recent CD ""Songs in Red and Gray"", however has a bad track. Solitaire has bad staic on my copy. Unless the producer/sound eng was taking lessons from Portishead, this is a real QA goofup.J. Musamak"
134045,2,Diana,"This gate works great! My son can pull up on it and even hang from it and it never gives way (he is 25lbs). It is noisy but this is not really an issue for us. At first it was really hard to use but after a few days I could manage one handed in the dark! My declawed cats also seem to be able to climb over somehow which is good, as they would tip other less sturdy gates over."
134075,2,Awesome set,"This is the only and best collection of Jacksons work. Truly brilliant. MIchael Jackson was on top of the world and this collection shows why. Very nice box set with awesome tracks, great collectors book and box design. MIchael Jackson recently died planning his comeback which is truly sad, he will always be the KING OF POP like Elvis will always be the KING Of Rock N Roll. It's a shame Michael had to die to get some respect back from the garbage pile that is the media and in turn the dumb public. RIP MJ."
134101,2,A good anime but why do I need to buy the DVD with the Bluray?,"I enjoyed this anime, it was not quite as good as the first season but still good. The quality of the blurays is great but I feel no need to have the DVDs and wish there was an option to buy a normal bluray.This uses a different, and in my opion a worse, case compaired to Season 1. I will try to avoid weird combo packs in the future."
134162,2,Great Live!,The songs that are awesome make up for the ones that aren't so great. Bleed it out is my new fav song by lp & shadow of the day. The live show was even better!
134224,2,SuperFoods RX,Book is informative and gives great advice on the foods that are needed to change poor eating habits. The recipes and ideas are usable. I enjoyed reading this book.
134264,2,"Thrilling, Intriguing, Excellent deliveries","I chose 4 stars because I wished it was a prime instant video.The suspense and intellect displayed just charges the viewer and the roller coaster ride with John only leaves you wanting for more and more.When he solves a crime, you are relieves with him. At first I didn't get Alice but gosh she is quite a character. Her candor and wittiness, let alone book and street smarts don't match the image, which makes her seem so unassuming, sinister and mischievous.I think I'm looking forward to season 3 with the hopes of them reuniting and making it legit between them as a couple. But then there's the new girl Jenny who's obviously attracted to him...I hope that she doesn't make Alice go mad again.Love love Idrissa's acting, great showmanship.MissJelC"
134300,2,First Time User,"I just received my new Baby Bjorn Air for my newborn. The product is easy to assemble and will fit a newborn slightly under 8lbs easy. So far so good, I can't wait to have both hands free so I can get more accomplished during the day."
134304,2,oh yeah oh yeah,"No offense to Freakwater fans, but i am SO glad when Ms. Bean and all the other Dream Day people get back together to do another record. I first heard their disc ""Beet"" when i was in exactly the right mood for something kinda like old-timey rough and melodo-punky that was at the same time brand new, and then i got totally hypnotized by their record ""Eighth"", which i found by accident in a noncyber store where it was filed under ""D"" instead of ""E"". Anyway, this latest disc is extra-dreamy, and even the cover art kinda reminds me in a good way of what a glorious mess things still are (believe it or not) at the edge of mainstream glitter and hype. The sounds that come off this record are rich and full of all kinds of mysteries, and Eleventh Dream Day completely deserves to be very un-obscure."
134318,2,I'm still here A YEAR LATER,"I hope it works but if it doesn't I won't be writing any more reviews.I like the fact that it will tell you when it is down on battery life so you don't have to guess ""which one is beeping"" in the middle of the night. Hasn't gone dead yet so not much to report. No issues so far.UPDATE One Year:It is a great product and all said above is accurate. I would definately buy this (and did so) for other rooms in the house - especially this time of year with all the Christmas lights etc. Just like the funny commercial on TV - there's no more guessing which one is beeping. I can't tell you how much that helps. The one in the attic (for second floor furnace upstairs) almost drove me out of my mind until I upgraded all upstairs units to this. It's worth the money and can save a life."
134398,2,the best trim router money can buy,"While Dewalt tools are known to be top notch, I can say without a doubt the trim router package is by far one of the best investments you can buy. It combines all of the versitility of a standard trim/finish router, while giving the addition of a seamer, an offset base and an angle base. therefore if you want the most bang for your bucks, you cannot go wrong with the Dewalt Dw673K 7/8 HP Trim Router Kit. It is amazing how easy and yet light weight the unit is. It has far surpassed all of my expectations."
134403,2,More than decent recording,"I don't understand the comment by one reviewer on the poor quality of the recording...it's quite decent although it's true that the volume of the mandolin is a bit high...; I also have recordings by I Solisti Veneti, yes very good, but I don't think that they've recorded the same works anyway ; the big advantage of this CD is definitely the selection of concertos and sonatas."
134424,2,Beware,I perchased this game from Sold Out Software on 6/15/2011 and it is full of VIRIOUSES so if you by from them BEWARE
134442,2,Lots of fun,"One of my son's favorite toys. The only problem is that once he figured out how to dissasemble it, he didn't play with it the way it was intended. But that didn't seem to bother him...he just tilts it on his side and plays with it like that.A great toy!"
134445,2,best toy ever!,"my toddler and all his friends use this toy constantly. They take feathers from a boa and watch the feathers fly around, besides just the balls. The only drawback is that things can get stuck in there and it may take a while to get out - but it's a very well loved toy."
134500,2,The Courage of Sarah Noble,"I liked this book because the little girl Sarah remines me of my self, because I act just like her. Also it's realistic fiction with a little bit of history. One thing I learned from this book is that you shouldn't judge peopleno matter who they are. The story remineds me of when I was 6 went on a sleep over and I didn't know the people so well, and I went over at 5 and stayed till 10 the next morning. But then I got use to them and they come were nice to me."
134519,2,Gripping history,"Mel Gibson brings history to life in the blockbusting movie ""Bravehart."" Story line and drama filled plot will keep watchers on the edge of their seats. Gibson's talent abounds. Not all movies end as we want but when you are following history it rarely happens and ""Bravehart"" is no exception. Keep your box of tissue close for this one.Beverly J Scott author of Righteous Revenge"
134563,2,An amazing book!!,"This is an amazing book, if you Draw, Paint, Tattoo or just love pin-up art you'll love this book. Im an artist and i draw and paint pin-ups and this book has everything you look for in photo reference. Poses, clothing, hair, faces, everything.. If you just like pin-up art you really enjoy this book for years to come.."
134578,2,This book is a must for anybody who has a dog.,"I'm a Floridian and I have a dog, so I was pleased to find ""The Florida Dog Lover's Companion."" I now know which hotels, motels and restaurants where my ""best friend"" is welcome, as well as parks, beaches and other diversions for pooches. Thank you Sally and Robert for writing this book!"
134646,2,Eve is back!,"This CD is even better than Eve's first! The songs have better beats, and Eve is showing more of her voice than before. The coolest clips are ""Let Me Blow Ya Mind"" with Gwen Stefani, ""Who's That Girl"", and ""Scream Double R"". If you liked the first CD ""Ruff Ryders First Lady... Let There Be Eve"" you'll for sure like this one. Also Reccomended : Eve ""Let There Be Eve"" - Miss E ""So Addictive"" - Trina ""The Baddest *****"""
134648,2,Still Jill and Beautifully Human,"I love this album so much. I'm listening to it right now. Every song on this album is so incredible, strong, confident, and beautiful, I don't even have any favorite cuts. This is the best album I've purchased this year. Jill's words just flow so wonderfully I feel I'm heaven every time I hear her sing.The fact is Jill...we need you...Thank you for inspiring me. I can't wait for your book of poetry to drop April 2005."
134721,2,Great,I think this movies is great because I saw it at school for my Mythology unit Andromeda is the greatest
134759,2,Great Book,"I needed this book for a class I was taking. I wasn't sure I would be interested in really reading it, just using it for class. But I found that I really got into it and the pages flew by."
134768,2,Such great lessons!,"I highly recommend this book. I love the Flicka, Ricka, and Dicka books. They are about 3 girls who are raised in rural Sweden. This book is about how the 3 girls will need bikes for the upcoming school year. Instead of asking their parents to buy them bikes, they plant a garden and sell their produce at the market. It is lovely. My only complaint is that the font is a bit small and different from the original books. Also, the pictures are not exactly what I remember the girls looking like. We have several of these books. They offer such great opportunities to discuss doing what is right, working hard, and being kind."
134915,2,Beautiful shoes,"i have 2 MIA shoes and they r both amazing and comfy and are the true size. these ones were really nice but i felt that the color was a bit fadded, from distance it feels like its multi beige not leopard...but they are nice from near"
134922,2,Something unbelivable,I just saw the show on Broadway and was blown away. The live performance has more impact than the recording but the recording is still very good. In NY I bought the DVD during intermission for $30 not knowing it was avaiable on-line. Also the recording is for the London performance and there are some differences. A fantastic live show and a great recording. See it if you can.

134984,2,28 Days,"Watching Sandra Bullock play something that you could never imagine her being, is very well done! She is fun and still her naturally goofy self. This gets a little heart warming and it's still a great love story. I definitely recommend watching this!"
135083,2,Funniest and one of the best written tales of all time.,It is one of two books that I have read cover to cover (and the better of the two). The style of Dahl's writing is unmatched in this short story. Simply the funniest book I've ever read. I wish he had published more of the trials and escapades of young and old Oswald Cornelious.
135107,2,The Thrill (Price) of Reckless Independence,"Follow the compelling story of Chris McCandless as chronicled by Jon Krakauer. Both men seemed at once sensitive and at odds with phoney, stiff, sanitized society. Both men ran to find the thrill of independence and self-sufficiency in the wilds of nature. Both seem to find what they are looking for. McCandless finds it and never lives to tell about it. His story is compassionately related by Krakauer, who seems more kin than journalist. A stunning, captivating true story, excellently told."
135108,2,Moving account of the dichotomy that exsists within us all,"Jon Krakauer does an excellent job of combining a memorial ofChristopher McChandless,an accurate anaylsis of whatmotivated Christopher McChandless to do what he did, and whatcould drive all of us to do the same thing. Right up therewith Jack London and Farley Mowat. A must read for anyone whofights that inner battle of being one with society or beingone with nature!"
135160,2,Good Product from Amazon,I am a novice with these things. I have a HP Laser Jet 6P that I have attached to my XP computer. I also needed to attach it to my Vista computer which only has USB. The product was exactly what I understood it to be. Shipment by Amazon was good. Installation was quick and easy even for a novice like me. It fit into the B parallel plug on back of the printer (I also have a C parallel plug going into the other computer) and into the Vista. I didn't have to insert a disk -- it found its driver and appeared on my menu bar. I did have to open the printer and change the port to USB001. It does what I need it to do. I would recommend to others. I hope to keep my HP Laser Jet 6P for many more years.
135191,2,Brilliant art discourse~,"Amazingly informed and intelligent art discussion between two bright, subversive gentlemen; Bruce Hainley, writer, curator and art critic and John Waters, director of such great cult classics as Female Trouble.Their conversations introduce the reader to wide range of artists working in many different media, many of them well informed by LAs seedy past and gay culture.For anyone looking for a sharp witty overview of the names to watch in contemporary art, this is incredibly accessible yet never dumbs down its subject.The only problem? Now I want to collect works by everyone they described..."
135203,2,I love this man!,"Awww. Lenny, baby, I just love you. I miss his locs. Anyway. The album really is a greatest hits. Its really good for a long road trip when you need some gritty raunchy guitar to reverberate though you torso and give you the energy you need to keep on to your destination. Its really good stuff. Add it to your wishlist or buy it now."
135220,2,Fits Great,"I consider myself average, but find that regular condoms are sloppy. The snugger fit condom delivers, as it is form fitting and in my opinion allows for more sensations to come through without that loose plastic bag feeling. As other reviewers have said, it is a little tough to get started on. It does grip at the very well at the base, almost acting like a cock ring.Update (I bought more!!!):The Iron Grip is great for guys who have troubles with slipping out of regular sized condoms during mid stroke. My wife also tells me she can feel my head better as well, maybe it is larger due to the cock ring effect."
135322,2,Great movie,Another great movie with Richard E. Grant. Highly recommended if you like good movies. Some really funny scenes and characters.
135339,2,An Especially Good Read,"""Especially Father"" is the author's loving look at her extraordinary and exasperating father and, obliquely, his generation. Mostly set from the early 20th century up to World War II, Taber's book recounts the exploits and foibles of her geologist/explorer father who is a whirlwind of energy, opinion, and confidence. They are both funny and moving.She ends the book describing a family reunion in which her dynamo dad and his siblings, now quite aged, still manage to exude a vivacity and confidence that make the younger generations pale in comparison, in the self-doubting times of the postwar nuclear world. She wonders if her generation, or any subsequent generation, could ever have that same self-confidence and sense of competence and rightness.Taber wanted to capture a piece of that era on paper. She does so, and the reader is left with her same softly haunting images of a time and people now long gone."
135346,2,Only for die-hard readers of academic history,"This biography is a magnificent work of scholarship. But if I hadn't already read a lot about Edward IV, I don't think I could have coped with it. It doesn't have much sense of narrative, so that it can hardly even be called a biography. It's facts, facts, facts.If you're seriously interested in this era, already know a lot about the characters and want the most serious, worthy and scholarly survey to be found, go for it. But if you're a novice reader of this historical period, you may feel bombarded with a mass of undigestible information. Mary Clive'sThis sun of York;: A biography of Edward IVand Michael K. Jones'sBosworth 1485: The Psychology of a Battle (Battles & Campaigns)would make far better introductions to Edward IV."
135365,2,really good,"when i was reviewing a few cookbooks recently, trying to decide which one to buy, i kept coming back to this one. the material is great, easy to understand. the storyof how earthbound farms became what it is, and the devotion to organic food is really inspiring and common sense.it's a great cookbook for those just entering into the more roganic food lifestyle. lots of great recipes with accessible ingredients...i guess my only complaint - and maybe i just missed it in the contents - is there is very little on beans and how to use them. but maybe i just missed them.i'm glad i bought it. i have made the pancakes already and they're great. all the recipes i's tried so far have been nothing short of lovely."
135463,2,Works Perfect,Been using it for a month now and It has been working awesome.I never go near it and there has no connection drops wat so ever.Ease of install was very high and I got it up and running in a minute :)Totally recommend this product.
135583,2,The perfect way to improve your vocabulary in a few months,"I purchased this book a couple of years ago with the desire to improve my vocabulary before leaving college and entering the business world. I had low expectations, and they were met and exceeded. Here are some of the high points:- The book includes a beginning examination to test your vocabulary prowess.- Each chapter groups words together that have the same etymological background. This is key in helping you remember definitions in the long run.-Each chapter teaches/tests the pronunciation, definition, and forms of each word.Overall, you cannot go wrong with this text. The only behavior I strongly suggest is that you do not take a break from this book. It becomes very difficult to jump back at a later time."
135650,2,Works waaaay better then the junk from Homedepot!,This thing smoked the Leviton cable amp I bought from homedepot.I am thoroughly impressed with the quality signal level this amp produces. I have it connected in my structured wiring cabinet and even have a couple of splitters on the back side to get signal to all of my rooms/devices and every outlet I've tried works perfectly! I would highly recommend this amp to anyone with cable signal problems.
135694,2,George Brings Life to History,"A wonderful account of the life of Mary. Margaret George fills the reader with historical facts withoutthe reader ever knowing it. By the end of thebook, I felt a certain political suave at the recognitionof Mary as a failure as a Queen due to herundeniable humanity. Mary's continual poor choicesin life had far reaching consequences that Georgeallows the reader to deduct without stating theobvious. At times the book did progress a littleslow, especially Mary's time held captiveby Elizabeth, but overall a well written historylesson."
135759,2,Best Ever!,This is the best slow cooking cookbook I've ever had. All the recipies are great and crowd pleasers! If you love southwest food and want to be introduced to new ways of cooking...buy this! I am a huge fan!
135768,2,Brians Wilderness,"Brian Robinson is back out in the wild again. Brian can not adjust to his normal life at home. Brian decides to start to head out on a journey to meet the small horns (The People Who Saved Him). Brian encounters many things like being shot in the leg with his own arrow. Brian was heading down the river on his journey. When he stopped to look at a bear that was looking at him. The bear started to charge and Brian, Brian jumped out on to dry land. Will Brian be able to fight off the bear?"
135797,2,a slice of heaven,This toaster by Krups is a delightful purchase on many levels. The cost was a tremendous value and the style of the item is very appealing to the eye. The toaster is easy to use and the preset settings such as bagel or defrost are very helpful. The crumb tray and top warming rack or easy to clean and the easy access make it a snap to keep clean. The four slice capacity and the extra wide slots make it easy for bagels and other unconventional items to fit. The Krups quality name is also another reason to purchase this toaster.
135819,2,Eve 6 rocks!,"When I first heard Eve 6 on MTV I loved the song ""Inside Out"". So I went and got the tape. I haven't stopped listening to it yet. Eve 6 can't be compared to any other band because their music is too original. So if you haven't got it yet you better get it soon!"
135856,2,Great machine for the price!,"I just received my 50-850 today, assembled it in about a hour.I found it to be heavy duty, well for the price it is, I had previously installed my metal duct work and ready to go; this dust collector sucks very well, now I can work in a clean inviroment. I have earnestly searched for the best price to quality ratio and found this one to be a winner , I would have given it a 5 star but I only have had it for one day!"
135885,2,Great for students interested in International Studies!,Robinson gives a detailed account of the United States position concerning foriegn affairs where Latin America and other developing nations are concerned. He is thorough and the book proves to be a great reference guide as well as provocative reading.
135894,2,The best hand cleaner I have ever used.,"My name is Dave Byrne, I am a local 11 roofer in chicago. I do all kinds of roofing and work with all kinds of material, I have been a roofer for 30 years and this product by far is the best. Thanks Joe!"
135926,2,Compelling history,"Concluding Foote's narrative history of the American Civil War, the final volume opens with Grant and Sherman's plans for the defeat of the Confederacy and the failure of the Red River campaign. It includes the capture of Atlanta, Sherman's march to the sea, Sheridan's reduction of the Shenandoah Valley, and climaxes with Lee's surrender at Appomattox. It also includes the tragic anticlimaxes of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln and the capture and imprisonment of Jefferson Davis. As denoument it touches briefly on the Reconstruction and the post-war years of the veterans of the conflict, Jefferson Davis, and other notable figures in the nation's bloodiest conflict. As before, Foote's prose is objective yet compelling, bringing the personalities to vivid life."
136034,2,Could watch it every day!,"What an awesome flick, this is a movie you can watch over and over. I am just wondering who the character is on the cover of the DVD with his hand on his forehead?"
136098,2,excellent book,"This is an excellent book, of which I had to repurchase for my now 9 year old daughter. She read the binding off of the paperbook version, so we bought this hardcover. I'm thankful it is still in print as it is dificult to find worthy material for my little poet to learn from enjoy."
136184,2,History Comes Alive,"Don Rast's ""Ghosts In The Wire"" begins in March of 1970 as the Delta jet bringing him home from Vietnam is landing smoothly at the Shreveport airport. This decorated warrior then takes us on a one-year personal journey, clearly showing the reader what the returning soldier from the war experienced. He paints a vivid portrait of American life during that time, centered around garrison life of soldiers at Fort Sill who had been in the war zone and were waiting to get out of the Army. This book is an eye-opener for anyone not old enough to remember that time in United States history and for those who never served in the military. This talented author deserves a standing ovation for telling it like it was in a most refreshing and enjoyable way. --Diana J. Dell, author, ""A Saigon Party: And Other Vietnam War Short Stories."""
136190,2,gotta love mark,I always enjoy the story telling of Mark Twain. What a great American writer and treasure. He likes to tell it like it is without any of the PC of today.
136254,2,Nice pad !,We bought one to protect the mattress. Good quality and great price. Does the job. We usually buy a new one each year.
136290,2,a surprise ending with a unbelievable twist,"This is the first book of Anne Perry's that ive read and i am sure it wont be the last. This book is fantastic. This book grabs your attention and wont let u put it down untill the very last page. The ending is such a twist and shocker that u would never guess the killer. I recommend The Twisted Root to anyone who is looking to read a ""not-put-downable"" mystery that will grab u until the last page. A must read and great book. Anne Perry is great!"
136310,2,"Fantastic, But Note: Proper Assembly is Required!","This swing is fantastic -- our newborn is lights-out at the moment, giving dad a few minutes to write this review. We have a Fisher Price vibrating bouncer gadget in the same motif that works well if you can remain immediately aside it and keep it moving for him; I'm really pleased that the swing takes care of itself. The lights and music will ensure this product is equally appreciated in the months to come!For all the negative reviews about babies sitting too upright, staring out (not up at the lights), and slumping over and potentially getting their head stuck between the frame and chair arms, it looks like this could only happen if you've installed the back support frame backwards...something that they've fixed in this model with a design that prevents mis-assembly. When attached correctly, the chair itself sits at a comfortable 130 degrees (vice darn near 90 degrees if the back support is reversed).Doing business in peace and quiet from the home!"
136330,2,SMOOTH!!,"This is the best router this size I have ever owned. In my shop I use lots of routers for specific jobs ans have tried lots of brands. This 1 3/4 HP router is hands down the best I have used. It's quiet, smooth, and very easy to control thanks to the D-handle design. It produces extra smooth cuts in all woods with many different types of router bits. As I said, I have tried many different brands (Porter-Cable, Dewalt, Ryobi, Craftsman) with only the Porter Cable 690 even coming close in terms of quality. It costs a little more than a PC but, as in most things, you get what you pay for."
136333,2,Showcasing one of the finest singing groups in the world,"South African Choral: Songs Of The Alexandra Youth Choir is a masterfully recorded CD showcasing one of the finest singing groups in the world. Listeners will find themselves caught up in the unusual rhythms, truly beautiful voices, and wonderfully melodic songs showcasing the African singing of a choir (created in 1988) comprised of children of all ages who sing in a multitude of South African languages including Zulu, Sotho, Xhosa, and English. Twenty different and memorable pieces comprise this outstanding collection which is enthusiastically and confidently recommended for personal and community library multicultural music collections."
136396,2,"good seat, but...","my 11 week old has enjoyed this seat. it is comfortable and he liked it from week 2. it's been good for us, too - it's often the only way my husband and i could eat dinner or grab a shower. however, now that he is older i want something a little more stimulating. this gives him nothing to do or to look at. based on other reviews, i am going out today to get the kick and play boucer."
136420,2,Perfect Disney Camera,"Got this right before a trip to Disney World. Read just enough of the manual to get the basics. It worked great. It is small, light weight easy to use. Easy to switch between video and stills. The video quality is pretty good. Picture quality is also good. It was great to have both decent video and stills from the same small camera. The only downside is the battery life, it only lasts a little over an hour. Not really enough for a full day. I haven't used any of the included software. Transferring files from camera to PC is simple enogh just using windows and Ulead video studio works great with JVC's .mod files. Just get a bigger battery and use the included battery as a back-up and you have the perfect Disney camera."
136424,2,Iowa - Slipknot,Pretty good compared to the last album (SLIPKNOT) . I was kind of surprised to see their come back. I have their two albums : SLIPKNOT and IOWA and both are not old for me.Yeah guitars are kind of used repeaditly but not alot. After listening to it the first time i thought the album sucked. But now after year or two its not bad. They don not sound like any other band present. Better than most.Favourite songs:People = Sh*tDisasterpieceEverything EndsI am HatedIowaThe last track IOWA is very long (about 14 mins.) but starting it with slow guitars and very slow vocals. After a while it becomes a very angry song.Overall one of the best Metal album present.
136537,2,Two out of three ain't bad,"A.D. Police files 1-3 (1990): 8/10: Despite a third episode that is almost a scene remake of Robocop this is one of the sharpest anime's around. Sexist and racist in that unconscious Japanese way with over the top violence and just a dash of nudity A.D. Police doesn't fail to entertain. The first two tales are gripping and inventive if a little hard to follow (Character development is minimalist at best) with great moral arks about the downfall of artifical people. The third episode is a letdown and quite skippable. Tons of action keeps AD Police moving even when the story seems to stall.13 up: violence, grotesque imagery, alochol and tobacco use"
136542,2,WOW!,"This has got to be the most brilliant thriller since ""Silence of the Lambs."" Frasier, now one of my must-have authors, ropes you in with an ingenious premise that includes modern forensics, local Savannah color that incorporates voodoo, along with fascinating characters haunted by pasts that, like the mounting body-count, seem unwilling to die. I count Frasier among my most favorite authors at this point, having read two of her novels. She's that good."
136545,2,Wow! So many elements in this.book.....,"A murder mystery that covers so many topics: police investigations, the occult, divorce and the breakdown of the family unit, in depth character analysis, etc. Excellent twists and turns that keep you wondering till the very end of the story. A must read....."
136580,2,best jazz rock instrumental guitar cd...,"like the guys who wrote review here,i am big fun of howe.i have got all the cd's,and i can say they are the best guitar teacher i had.every song of howe i learn to play is like ten years of standart progression.i dont feel that he is the best guitar player alive,but he is the one that does it to me.i listen to holdsworth,henderson,ron thal,kotzen,gamble and i cant feel the thrill i have when i listening to gregs work.i also feel that he is in diferent leage than vai and satriani.this album is must for every guitar player.my best in this album is track 1 and the amazing fusion of track 6.if you like to know how to play them,send me to my e-mail and i give you my hand made tabs for them."
136661,2,"A candid look at prison life for us ""Fish""","I just finished ""You Got Nothing Coming"". It's an interesting and entertaining as well as informative book. Most of us thankfully will never see the inside of a prison, let alone a county jail or police lock up. I suspect Mr. Lerner either embellished or left out certain details of his experiences, but never the less it's a good read."
136717,2,Lens rear cap,"I bought this for my Canon DSLR so I can keep the dust out of my camera. Fits perfect. Price is excellent. I only gave it a four start because it is a generic cap and does not have the Canon label on it like the ad portrays. Yeah Iam a label whore. After spending lots of cash for my equipment, I want them all to match up. Dont YOU?"
136794,2,No More Tangles!,I was having a hard time keeping my cord untangled. It was getting so twisted that I had to sit very close to the phone in order to talk. I even ended up breaking off the plastic piece because I tried to untangle it so many times! I finally found the Twisstop and it has made a world of difference. I have not had a tangle since I got it. I even bought a couple of extras for the other secretaries.
136830,2,Contest,Fast moving plot with interesting characters. Most interesting aspect is the nature of the game that constitutes the main theme and title of the book.
136870,2,What a Concept,"This book is a wonderful, eye-opening look into how people should be. I found it a little slow but all-in-all an easy read. I am fortunate enough to have attended a seminar by the author. I can honestly say that this is one book that will at least make you think - if not change your life."
136927,2,good plot; too simplistic?,I saw the review for the movie in theaters but I thought there would be more if I read the book. I was wrong! Good plot; I just wish that there was more to it. It's less than 200 pages and I read it in two days to find out more but I just didn't find that edge. I wanted to know more about what the men were thinking ; twist it up make her sound more crazier or more sane.
137027,2,"Powerful, raw fiction; not for the meek and timid.","Pure, powerful, hard-boiled mystery. I rate James Ellroy among the top 10 fiction writers in America. His later style is an acquired taste, kind of like Sauza Commemorativo served in a dirty shot glass. When recommended to friends, they either love it or don't get it. Once I began reading American Tabloid or White Jazz, I had bags under my eyes for a couple days. The non-fiction My Dark Places is as interesting and disturbing as the fiction."
137113,2,The Adventures of Bullwhip Griffin,Starring Roddy McDowell & Suzanne Pleshette. A family's butler reunites his former employer's now poor family & makes a fortune himself. He finds a strenght he never knew he had.
137119,2,Nice but not quite perfect,"This is a very sharp, nice stacked head Dado blade. Just what you would expect from Freud. And, the price for an 8"" blade like this is good. The only complaint that I have is that the outside blades on mine have a microscopically high point, so if I make a two pass Dado, you can see a scored mark in the bottom of the Dado. It is not deep enough to see from the side, so for almost all applications it works fine.Oh yeah, the box is cheap, but hey, your buying the blade and besides it's probably good enough anyway."
137167,2,A Wonderful Gift,My Sister had broke her very costly Pamp er'd Chef spreader. So I went to AMAZON and looked for a replacement for her. I found these and had them sent to her. She was thrilled and said that are better then the old POS she had! Four knives for less then the price of one name brand POS. It was a great purchase!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
137276,2,Wrenching and Unforgettable,"I first experienced this story as a television film around 1969. It stunned me then, as a child, and I kept it in my heart for decades. Recently I came across a dog-eared copy of the novelization in a used bookstore and was stunned by the grip it still had on me. I am now a teacher and have presented the book to my students. They were similarly enthralled. It transcends generations, ethnicities, and economic barriers. It is a sublimely human story. I am so grateful to Jane Wagner for creating such a fine piece. It teaches so many things in so many ways."
137391,2,Rad Racing,This is just an all out great game. I love to play it with myself or my friends. This game has great graphics and has many selection of boats! I would recommend you to get this game.
137423,2,Escape from Sobibor,"This is an awesome and compelling book on the cruelty and harshness of the Nazis during WWII. The heroics of Sasha, Shlomo, Toivi, and other Jewish prisoners helped the escape of more than 50 Jews from the death camp. Well written."
137456,2,CLASSIC,"This is not strictly a ""Brazilian"" CD in that it wasn't made in Brazil. But it may as well have been. ""Songs from the Tin"" is an instant classic. It has a trance-like, beautiful sound to it...almost Suba-like but more upbeat than ""Sao Paulo Confessions"". There is almost nothing like ""Songs from the Tin"" in the entire panorama of ""Brazilian"" music - ""Songs from the Tin"" breaks new ground. Indeed, Da Lata have yet to repeat these heights (or indeed have anyone else) - a delight from start to finish."
137537,2,Good and practical introduction to the Spiritual Life.,Another very good and practical introduction to the spiritual life. Do not be fooled by the title. It's not only for beginners! Someone who has been faithfully living a spiritual life for many years can profit from either reading it or using it as a book for meditation. It is much easier to understand and put into practice than a book such as The Spiritual Combat.
137611,2,An important read,"Most of us (both men and women) who take the right to vote for granted have no way to comprehend the struggle it was for those who fought and won that right. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Susan B. Anthony's own words from the beginning of her work with her friend and fellow reformist Elizabeth Cady Stanton in the mid 1800s to her death in 1906. As a secondary school student, I remember her name being mentioned occasionally, but I had no appreciation of the dedication and determination of this remarkable woman who was truly a pioneer in the women's movement in America.A compelling, important read."
137624,2,PARADISE,"As soon as I heard the first song I felt like I was far, far away from all chaos. Lying in bed I felt like Cleopatra, like a goddess, and was entranced with each beat and soothing rythm."
137673,2,Like butter....,"Price is definatley a deterant for many people, especially if you are a on and off hobbyist. But let me assure you that this blade is well worth the extra bucks (which you'll spend in sandpaper, blade sharpening and joiner blades). The finish left on woods from Jatoba to Knotty pine is amazing....no other way to go than Forrest."
137676,2,Wisdom in a Miniature Package,"This booklet is for everyone, but a perfect gift for new graduates. It is full of quotes from writers, educators and scholars. Easy, short quotes from many famous commencement speeches, makes it readable any time for relaxation. The tastefully done fun pictures add to the effectiveness of the book. The inspiring statements are about the accomplishments of the graduate and the life-path waiting for them. Thoughtful statements that will keep the young generation assured, plan life for the long term with courage and faith, learn from mistakes, not lose the lessons learned, maintain a sense of humor, and move on with individuality, compassion for others, and make the best out of oneself.Here is a great book of encouragement for graduates and all others."
137687,2,main Brain games,"These puzzles are very interesting. You have to be quick (it's timed) and coordinated between your eye and hand dexterity. I found sometimes I had to wait a fraction of a second for the next puzzle to pop-up. This takes away from your speed score. But, all in all it's worth the money to keep you alert and awake."
137691,2,Excellent Book,Excellent book- much better than the movie that it was made into- a lot more involved - if I can find another book he has written I will probally buy it also
137692,2,Yellow!,I recieved the 2 DL-1U Inserts as ordered. However they were both yellow! It may be petty but I wanted the red ones as pictured. Amazon should add this disclosure to the description.
137749,2,Dust Hood,This product was just what I was looking for and at a great price. Great people/ company to deal with.
137763,2,Adorable!!!,"I love my little pony, even as a fifteen year old!!! I was a collector of the generation two (and still am) and it's nice to see my childhood friends making a comback.THough I am disappointed that these newer ponies are a lot like the older ones (they're not quite as slim and much bigger), they're still wonderful and the little ones such as this are perfect for playsets bought and created.Very excellent... I only wish I had enough money to buy them all!!!!"
137826,2,Good book for beginners,"This book had good pictures and was good at keeping my little one's attention, but I didn't love that they tried to shame the dog at the end."
137834,2,A taste of the great outdoors,"Many people like myself have indoor cats, but that doesn't mean that the cat can't enjoy at least the feeling of the great outdoors. This perch is well made and, apparently, very comfortable, as ""His Majesty"" goes to it on a regular basis so that he can keep track of all the birds and squirrels in the neighborhood and let them know what he thinks of them being on his property. One of the nicest features of this perch is that it can be easily moved from window to window and leaves no marks to indicate where it has been."
137873,2,Wonderful and entertaining,"I love Fantasia 2000. It is a very entertaining DVD. I used to watch it a long time ago a lot, but i got tired of watching it. Now i want to watch it all the time. I love this video. I have a lot of favorites from this video. I like all of the videos. My most favorite one was the last one and Rhapsody in Blue. This is a very good fiim to watch. If you like old movies like from 1979 or 1956 then you should watch this. I recommend this for kids and adults becuase it is very entertainig and your children will like a lot of the films, especially the ones with Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. This film is a great one. I recommend it for anyone who likes this type of dvd."
137908,2,The importance of HUMINT,"General Franks speaks at length why the U.S. has not been able to capture bin Laden. It is because there is little to no Human Intel. As a former intelligence personell I can say that he has hit the nail on the head. Signal and Satellite reconnaissance can only provide so much. In order to provide actionable intel you've got to also have HUMINT.This book lays out so well how officers should treat, respect and care for their enlisted men that it should be required reading in Officer Candidate School. General Franks deserves all kudos coming to him as a wonderful leader within our military.This book is very non-bias politically. The closest he ever comes to a political side is stating his friendship and love of President G.W. Bush. And, in just one sentence talking about the aloofness of the Clinton White House."
137947,2,"Puppets that eat people...Not original, but entertaining for the most part.","Critters #1 was, of course, the bestCritters #2 was not bad, but I found the kid from the first movie to be too annoying a second time around.Critters #3 was Leo DiCaprio's first movie, which I feel may have been his best. The third was funny and has the early 90s feel of stereotyped sitcom acting. Fun to watch with friends.Critters #4... bad. Avoid the last. Not even fun to ridicule."
137967,2,the information in his book has given me a whole new life.t,"the title of this book drew me to it. The information is given in an easy to read and follow format. I was so eager to get my family on it (we are all O's) that I bought copies forthem. I am fortunately able to grow a lot of my own food, but cannot buy organicbeef or chicken here. The explanation of Highly Beneficial foods beingmedicine; neutral food being just food; and avoid food as being poison needed to be in large, underlined print, as I somehow missed it the first reading."
138026,2,Wonderful. I recommend to everybody !!,"Bismillah, prayers, the Resurrection, why humanity and the universe were created, the Qur'an and modern thinking, Hadith, natural calamities, the Divine Being and His Attributes and acts, worldly life, Messengership, the Qur'an's references to scientific advances, Divine Unity, belief, and worship.The Qur'an's miraculousness, Divine Decree and Destiny and human free will, ijtihad, the Companions, the schools of law, Paradise and Hell, angels and jinn and other spirit beings, the world's destruction, the Resurrection, the human ego, particles, the Ascension, and God's Existence and Unity."
138028,2,Superb! Smart lines.,"The Heroine is unlike any heroine I've ever read about. Growing up, she was the 'Mean Girl'. The author did such a superb job making the reader sympathetic to her character, not because she was 'blameless', but because she realized her errors the hard way and turned herself around.I'm sure we all have done things in the past that we wish we could go back and correct. It made me cheer Sugar Beth on all the way. I wasn't sure I would like this book at the beginning of the book, Sugar Beth was a bit too trashed, but after about 20 pages, when the dialogue between her and Colin began, it became whip smart, and I couldn't put the book down.There are some sizzling love scenes, and some serious tearjerker pages. Amazing writing."
138036,2,Scissorcuts,"Absolutely beautiful. I always loved scissorcuts, used to do it myself. We were taught as children how to do it and used it to make christmas cards or 12 month calendars as we did not have shoppingmals or much money to buy ""fancy junk or plastic toys."" I'm thankful top my parents and teachers for teaching us to give and make things to bring others joy!"
138220,2,Cheapest price,I have ordered this ink for my printer because it is the lest expensive place to purchase ink that isn't refilled cartridges. It always comes on time and is always what is says it is.
138225,2,feedback of Tenchu Wrath Of Heven,"Hi,you can call me ALANA.YOU see,I think that Tenchu Wrath Of Heven should have more stars.I've had it once, I mean not me but my half brother Vince, little Vince.You see, he brought it over to my house.He tought me how to play,I thought it was the bomebigiddy.Then I got stuck with it!It was like A cruse!!! BUT,I still thought it was cool.Becedis,red,black,gray,and white are my favorite colors.And I love the short song and the video in the begining of the game.SO,maybe maybe you should add more stars for Tenchu.I'm I'm not tring to be mean but, it's a really good game.Well I gotta...go now so I hope you guys change your mind about Tenchu.Oh,...BY!!!"
138300,2,Dear John,"This is a wonderful book as is all of Nicholas Sparks books. I saw the movie first, but the book makes you feel as if you are there with John."
138323,2,Road Tools Traveler CoolPad - Passive cooling for your laptop,"I had previously purchased a Road Tools CoolPad (back in about 2001), and was extremely pleased with it. It is small enough to carry around with the computer, provides passive cooling, and by the fact that it tilts the computer makes typing more pleasurable. The original CoolPad that I purchased was one piece. The new version, which I did not realize, has two ""external"" pieces which attach to the rear of the CoolPad, and allow for adjustment to larger or smaller computers. Initially I found this a bit annoying, but it is actually kind of nice - the computer can be adjusted to higher or lower tilt angles. The one concern that I do have is that I tend to misplace things kind of frequently, and if one of the risers is lost, the coolpad would be useless. I'm not sure whether replacements can be ordered, but I sure hope that they can be.Otherwise, I am extremely happy with this purchase, and would recommend it very highly."
138396,2,Really good,It was amusing and mysterious just the way i like it.Sometimes i want to read or buy all the series.
138421,2,Third in a prequel series,"If you liked the left behind series, you definitely need to read the first three ""before they were left behind"" books."
138431,2,"Very quiet, a little big for a bullet","I'm a big fan of the Lucid Dreams collection. They're all super quiet, and excellent quality. You can NOT go wrong with this brand, I promise you that.Having said that, this particular bullet, it's a little big for my taste. External use is awkward with this big one, but nice nonetheless. It's got a great shape for penetration, especially anal. However, if insertion is your intention, use a condom and leave the ring hanging out. That way, you can pull it out by the condom rather than the cord. Cords can always snap off and that makes for a trip to the emergency room. Buzzkill!"
138447,2,disturbing,"Horror movies are my favorites......not really sure what genre this would fit in--maybe TRUE HORROR?? It was very hard to watch, but I couldn't turn it off.I have several movies on the Holocaust (Nazis, Concentration Camps, etc) and I've even been to Auschwitz, Birkenau, and Buchenwald. The Girl Next Door is off the charts creepy to me. The really sad thing is, this stuff happens daily---somewhere! If you're really squimmish, this is NOT the movie for you."
138492,2,Good but not Great,"The bad acting and terrible stage combat didn't bother me because I was more interested in the story. The science fiction aspect of the stories is top notch, even by modern standards, and they pulled it off quite well without modern special effects. This might not be a good DVD to play for impressionable children since the depiction of the villain was the opposite of politically correct by modern standards. In a historical context it's interesting to see this anti-Japanese propaganda, but children might not understand the historical context.If you liked the campy version of the television show with Adam West as Batman, you will like this even better. This was the authentically campy show that the Adam West show was trying to be like, but in this version of Batman, they weren't doing it to be cute."
138571,2,Lives up to its billing,"Great story, it took me until the last page to realize it is a love story. Borrowed the Kindle version through Amazon Prime and will read the other books when the month is over."
138580,2,so many things were done very well in this film,Top notch film making here. Pitch perfect casting. Excellent effects. awesome soundmixing and effective use of soundtrack. Get it. Watch it. Enjoy!
138605,2,Great movie,"Really like this movie. Pretty faithful to the book. My husband really liked it, too, even though he hasn't read them. Highly recommend."
138635,2,Great Movie,I would definitely recommend this movie. I watched it recently because I remember it was popular when it first came out. I decided to see what the hype was about and I enjoyed the movie from beginning to end.
138651,2,Abosolutely fantastic!!!,This movie was one of the best movies I have seen in a very long time!! It kept you on your seat all of the time. The beginning is tough to follow but as you get into it you will understand. It is exceptionally done well worth having.
138693,2,Inspiring,I actually downloaded the audio book of this for my wife. She needed a copy of it for work and wanted to listen to it in the car on her commute. I started listening to it one day out of curiosity and found myself hooked by the story. I have listened to this book around a dozen times now and love the story and message it brings. I highly recommend this book to anyone and not just those people looking to form better work habits and environments.
138730,2,The *true* Christmas Carol,"Whether you prefer the colorized or the original black & white, there is only one true Scrooge -- Alastair Sim. This is a true classic and is well worth owning.As to the actual dvd, I've only watched the colorized myself, but have seen no issues with the picture displayed."
138774,2,For my Grandson,"A friend loaned me a thirty-year old copy of Nineteen Stars and I loved every page. I kept thinking I wish I had had this book when I was a new Army officer. We can argue about whether leaders are born or made, but no matter where you stand on the issue, it is unquestionably helpful for leaders at all levels to understand, and where appropriate, emulate great leaders. I bought my own copy of the book and I plan to save it for my infant grandson."
138796,2,Good little unit,"Overall not a bad unit. I used it to set my guitar effects pedal output volume level, so that the volume level would be the same for each selection. The only slight downside is the unit automatically shuts itself off to conserve the batteries, which got irritating while I was working. If I want it off, I'll turn it off and if I forget, shame on me!"
138822,2,none,Love the character building that takes place in Slaughter's books. She also does very well with blood and gore - as well as the drama.
138823,2,"A shocking, but un-put-downable read!","Yes, the subject matter is an uncomfortable one, and Ms Slaughter pulls no punches with it. I read this book practically in one sitting; I could barely put it down. The plotting was exquisite, and the writing style of the author cuts to the bone. If you like your mystery/thrillers truly thrilling without the situation censored for delicate constitutions, then you will enjoy this book!"
138832,2,nothing to dislike - perfect sink,"Double check your sizes - this is the large one. (there are three different ones) It's what we wanted, but letting folks know to double check."
138833,2,A must for anyone interested in British politics,"This is an excellent, highly readable book for anyone interested in the nuts and bolts of British politics. Each constituency is profiled in-depth, and I reach for this book every time a by-election is caused. This new edition is highly welcome, as the old edition was made hopelessly out of date by the 1997 Labour landslide. Buy this book, and you'll know which seats Peter Snow means the next time he says ""Now let's have a look at our Swingometer!"""
138881,2,good diet,"This book lays out the diet plan in simple terms, but also gives an explanation for the reasons behind each step. It makes the plan easy to follow and easy to reference if there are any questions as you go through the steps."
138922,2,a little something different,"Conservatives beware! This is a book about people who willfully choose not to follow the straight and narrow. I guess you could treat it as a cautionary tale (don't want to give it away, so I'll leave it at that), but it's so much deeper than that. A book of ideas-and what some might deem ""dangerous"" ones. I loved it!"
138928,2,good book lots of details,this is a good book with lots of details and pictures to aid understanding.and it is definitely worth the money invested.
138932,2,Critical Pedagogy,"Critical Pedagogy contains wonderful stories that give you a glimpse into the world of teaching. Wink offers definitions of Critical Pedagogy through experiences, of her own and of others, as well as through discussion of different ideas one could use in the classroom. The stories are touching and provide examples of Critical Pedagogy in action. I found the book to be a pleasant read because it was personal and contained useful information.There is a line on page 70 that says, ""I knew that I was learning by teaching, and we knew that the students were teaching by learning."" I think this is what the book is really about. I highly recommend this book to people who are interested in teaching because it makes you think about using different techniques, strategies, and ideas in the classroom and to discover what Critical Pedagogy means to you."
138994,2,Perfect,"Judy is a hard working lawyer. Get the job done. Her best friend Mary is still recuperating from her wounds. Mary's father, adored by Judy, asks a favor. Can you help my friend Pigeon Tony? he has been arrested for murder.What follows is a great suspense and courtroom thriller full of great humor, interesting characters and most of all an enthralling story that you will not be able to put down.This is not so much a whoddunit as it is a whydoneit! Great read and I am glad to see Scottoline back to her old self.Buy this one."
139003,2,Don't Laugh At Me,"I found this book by accident and am very happy I did. My 10 year old daughter read this and loved it. I have since shared it with many friends and professionals. There are so many other books about bullying and teasing available, but this one is so beautiful in its' simplicity. The message is loud and clear. This should be a mainstay in every school library."
139028,2,Highly Descriptive Page Turner,"Fantasy at its best. Time travel across 1600s, 1800s, and 1980s with bizarre and sometimes grotesque characters. The scenes come alive as if you were there. With adept historic detail, he creatively weaves a chase across time travels with fluctuating characters. Expect only the unexpected as he concludes with a vivid, wild, seemingly cataclysmic ending. I couldn't stop turning the pages."
139084,2,"Great movie, but no spanish subtitles","The movie on the back saids that has spanish subtitles, I brough it for my g/f, because she doesn't understand english subs. that much. On the settings menu, theres only english & NO spanish what so ever, thats the ONLY negative detail I have to say."
139098,2,Good value tele lens,"After shooting a few hundred pics with this lens on my Canon T1i/500D I am satisfied with my purchase. For the money, I doubt you can beat this lens for its construction and image quality. It is not a pro lens. It isn't fast enough for the pros shooting sports, I'm sure, but when it's used carefully in daylight it can take some very good shots - sharp, contrasty. It may not be especially sharp past 200mm for distant subjects, but the ""macro"" shots between 200 and 300mm seem to be very sharp. Sometimes it's a little tricky switching out of ""macro"" mode. If the zoom and focus rings are out of the allowed range the switch refuses to be moved to the normal position. I paid $160 for a nice used example and don't regret it for a minute. I like the matte black finish and white markings - very readable. Definitely a step up from the 18-55mm kit lens in its impression of quality construction. Note for polarizer fans: front element rotates during focusing."
139152,2,Sucanat Tastes Really Good!!,"This Sucanat tastes really good!!!! I mainly use it for my coffee in the morning along with half and half cream and I love it. Tastes so much better than the sugar cubes I've used in the past. Healthier, too. I can taste the difference and will not use white sugar in my coffee anymore. Worth every penny!! Highly recommended!!"
139189,2,It works but no miracle,"Definitely helped my yard, made it darker and more lush. But no drastic changes and no lawn miracle. It works though"
139193,2,A Solid Introduction To Classic Art.,"I got this book out the library and enjoyed it so much that I purchased it online. Sister Wendy is a great art critic,especially for people who might be intimated by it. She is to the point,uses unfussy language and truly seems to love painting. I did question some of her choices,but art is a subjective medium,.and overall,I agreed with many of them, Although why she didn't include the ""Mona Lisa"" or Dega's dancer's is beyond me. Finally,she is very-open minded (considering her vocation) so a lot her choices were pleasantly surprising. Enjoy the beautifully reproduced paintings and pick your own favorite works.."
139282,2,Terezin revisited,"Beautifully sung and played. Reminds one of the Berlin cafe music from the 1920s, which is probably where most of the composers found their niche. Sad to know that these people didn't survive, but their music lives on!"
139482,2,raw,"This album has some cool riffs and a very raw sound. For that it was a cool change, but it is somewhat repetative and the one thing it really is missing is guitar solos. This is a stripping of the polish and if given a chance without being skeptical it will grow on you."
139523,2,"Not Pink-Floyd original, but I liked it very much...","Indeed, it is NOT Pink Floyd. Instead, it is a remix of Pink Floyd carried out in Denmark by a very creative bank called Out Of Phase. The idea, as I see, was to give a new interpretation to the Pink Floyd original album, with new arrangements, drums, etc. That being the case I believe that it came out greatly. Now, if you want 100% Pink Floyd, NO PROBLEM, buy a 100% Pink Floyd CD."
139616,2,I fell in love with this book...,"It is the first Vonnegut book I had the pleasure of reading and within a month I have read 4 more. It a fantastic book that manages to mix sci-fi with philosophy and religion. It's a captivating story, and I think one of the best Vonnegut books out there."
139668,2,perfect!!,we purchased this for a fraction of the price our vet was charging :) our english mastiff loves them and they're good for his hips
139705,2,A bit different than her normal stories.,"This is a great story, but a little unbelievable when it comes to the Klone's performance. It had some great laughs in it throughout the book."
139733,2,My Review,"This is a very sweet show and I would reccomend it to anyone. But, I sincerly wish that I could purchase the soundtrack somewhere..."
139737,2,Oldie but goodie,I use to love watching this on tv when I was lil and now I can enjoy it for a while longer.
139765,2,"SO wonderfully clear - easy to reference, easy to read","I would not go so far as to say that this book is groundbreaking, particularly if one is already familiar with the writings of Rudolf Steiner or the theory behind Waldorf Education. That said, it whittles down the philosophy to provide useful application, examples, and references. I particularly enjoy the holistic approach from the child's perspective to reminding a mother that she cannot sacrifice all that she is to be a ""mother."" A woman must nurture the inner spirit so that she can know how to convey to her child how to be confident, creative and thoughtful."

139858,2,It's not her best but still good,"I don't really care what other people say, I like Easy Breezy out of all the other songs. It's different from her Japanese albums but it should accomodate to the different tastes out there."
139929,2,Great Read on How to Achieve Peace without Wars,"Great books in better understanding the real problems the people of under developed countries face on daily basis. This book provides a real opportunity for those who want to explore and understand what is happening in countries like Pakistan and Afghanistan and how to address those problems by peaceful means. Reading this book helps you better understand what the the term ""People to People"" mean."
139983,2,Highly recommended,"Read these books with your kids or read them by yourself, but read them. Harry Potter is one of the few contemporary books that totally lives up to the hype,and in fact, I think the toys and etcetera don't live up to the book. Rowling is clever and witty, funny and poignant, writing at a level that is intelligent enough for adults but clear enough for kids."
140014,2,Reunited?,"For those like me who have longed for a full-fledged Renaissance reunion, this disc is a mixed blessing. First of all, if you are expecting a reunion of the classic Renaissance lineup, you'll be disappointed. Longtime keyboard player John Tout only appears on three tracks and Bassist Jon Camp doesn't appear at all. All of the songs were written by Michael Dunford and Annie Haslam, and although Annie's voice is still a thrill to hear, her lyrics are not in the same league as the great Betty Thatcher. All that said, this is a very pleasant disc and at times does recapture the magical sound and warmth of the band in their heyday. For me, the title track was the highlight of the disc along with Annie Haslam's soaring vocals underscored by some very tasteful orchestral arrangements. Unfortunately, this disc was only released in Japan, so this is a very expensive indulgence. Recommended for die-hard fans like me! Now how about a reunion tour?"
140054,2,Built to last,"I did EXTENSIVE research when I set out to find a shredder. I did NOT want a shredder that would go kaput on me after the one year warranty would expire, as all my previous ones had. This one is nice and big - you can shred for a long, long time before you'd have to empty out that basket. It feels solid. It has a separate slot for shredding CDs. It has a good, no a great warranty - more than your standard one year warranty. It had a super customer satisfaction percentage. So far I'm one happy camper!"
140062,2,Raises important questions,"The book raises questions I never thought to ask. The contrast between the aims of Jesus the practicing Jew, and Paul the religious promoter to the gentiles, is good to be reminded of. Since we know that Jesus of Nazareth and Christ of the Nicene creed are rather different characters, it would not surprise me if the actual Paul is different from how church tradition sees him. However, Maccoby is not an academic historian, and his assertions are sparsely footnoted. I have learned that professional historians are not accepting of some (or many?) of Maccoby's conclusions regarding specific issues such as, the witness of the Ebionites, and Paul's status as a Pharisee (or not). Still, the main point of the book rings convincing, and the book is valuable to raise questions for further study of the historical Paul and Christian origins, which the reader can pursue through books from more trained historians."
140087,2,Blue Dog Bakery,"I have 3 dogs and each one loves all of the flavors. I have used ALL of the bones,snacks etc.,but they only beg for these.I will be ordering more very soon."
140288,2,Helpful and funny,"Particularly love the writing style. Very self-effacing and engaging. He offers great advice for responding to the ""crazy"" behavior that teens exhibit. Bought this copy for my husband so he could read it as I didn't want to part with mine!"
140302,2,I'd just buy the cleaner,The dash cleaner is awesome but the protectant is just OK. I'd recommend the cleaner paired with Blackfire Interior Protectant.
140338,2,Amazing animation,"I must say when I bought the first part of the series on VHS I was blown away and couldn't wait to see more....after several months of buying the parts on VHS I was more then satisfied with what I had done. This story is extremely well written you couldn't ask for a better Samurai story, the animation is breathtaking, fantastic special effects(you know the animated ones) compiled with the right amount of violence and swordplay and dead monsters.But I must say anyone who buys the box set is getting it easy. you don't need to wait as long as I did. Buy this.....you won't be disappointed, trust me."
140419,2,A Wild Story that I Wish Wasn't True!,"This one was not what I expected because it was far more funnier and out of pocket than what I thought could ever be possible in a public school even if it's an alternative school. Chapin is a really good writer apart from some of the spelling errors. The guy needs an editor, but this was a page turner. I read it over the weekend and couldn't put it down. CRAZY!!!"
140454,2,love this candy!!,"These are great. Like them because they're small, so if you're looking for something sweet (or tart in this case) but without a full candy bar, this is a good one. I have loved these forever and am glad to see them available on Amazon."
140557,2,Your Portable Personal Trainer!,"This book is an incredible resource to both the novice or experienced in weight training. For less than the cost of one hour with a live personal trainer, you can have a proven schedule of routines at your finger tips. Take it to the gym, take it on the road........your portable personal trainer is there to keep you on the track to better health and a more attractive body!If you are a personal trainer, you cannot afford to not own this book!"
140599,2,"Works great, although not super comfortable after several hours","I used these on recent international flights and they were great at cutting out loud background noise from the jet engines. You don't realize how awful and wearing the airplane noise level is until you put these on. One drawback: they sit right on your ear and hurt after several hours. For sleeping on flights, old-fashioned dirt-cheap ear plugs work best. But I loved these earphone for when I was awake and wanted some quiet or wanted to listen to my iPod. And they cost a lot less than other noise canceling headphones."
140611,2,Great,"Great quality, too thin for me though. Packed well, came quickl, would do business with this company again. Looks just like picture advertised."
140639,2,Convenient Excellent Sound,"I had read reviews that had rated the sound of these earphones as extemely good. I also wanted earphones that I could carry easily when not being used to replace the ear buds that came with my mp3 player, and I find the ""clip on the ears"" style uncomfortable for long use. So, I bought these hoping for the best. While the folded package is a little larger than I expected, it is still manageable and definitely easier to store in your pocket than any non-folding kind. The sound is also as good as others stated. These are definitely worth the money."
140640,2,Excellent sound and inexpensive!!!,"Excellent sound, nice compact foldable design with a cool little box to put them into. I own HD 595's but they are not very compact, that's why a needed something smaller i can carry on long flights from US to Europe and on long train trips while I am in Europe. This was a perfect solution to go with my Archos 605."
140644,2,Comfortable and sound great,"I find these headphones very comfortable. Probably the most comfortable headphones I've ever owned. I also like the open air design which allows me to hear what's going on around me, unlike earbuds. They sound great and appear very durable. I have no problems folding them up or unfolding them. The hard case is perfect for travel and storage. Overall, an ingenious design that is well executed. I highly recommend them.Sennheiser PX 100 Collapsible Headphones"
140660,2,Good Value,"I bought this because my daughter had one & recommended it. She used hers to clean houses with so I figured if it could make it through that it would do me fine. Easy to use, light weight & it comes with tools. It does not have a height adjustment for carpets but that hasn't been a problem for me and I use it on bare floors and 2 different heights of carpet. Also easy to empty & clean filter."
140679,2,Small but Very Comfortable,"I bought these for myself as a Christmas gift. I really wanted just standard Gold hoops of good quality. The Pros are that these are extremely light and comfortable to wear. You won't even notice you have them on. The cons are that they are so small, you'll only want to wear them when you are at work or dressed comfortably over the weekend. If you're like me, they won't be a go-to for an evening out bcause their size makes them look too casual."
140799,2,Nice,"This is by far stereophonics best CD yet. The single Mr. Writer is excellent, providing a reason to check out the rest of the CD. Although i found out there were better songs such as ""Lying in the Sun and ""Vegas Two Times"". Weakest song probably would be ""Everyday I Think Of Money"". ..."
140858,2,the love of Cult,"It's hard to classify a tough, rocking set of songs like the ones contained in ""Love."" For me, it just simply rocks! And according to Mark Knopfler's Sultans of Swing, they rock in a non-trumpet manner. I wouldn't call it goth or psychedelic, although elements of both are present. More than anything, I think that an awesome melodic flow, that is at the same time, punched up by raw energy and vigor in the way that the instruments are played and the way Ian sings, is the glue that binds and also what makes this collection of songs stand out among many, many contemporaries, and current outfits. I believe after ""Love"" the Cult veered more towards a crunchier heavy metal sound (some of which I have in my collection).If you don't have ""Love"" in YOUR collection, please, what the fek are you doing? Get off your duff, stop twiddling already and get it. I promise you, it's one of the all-time greatest set of recorded rock songs ever."
140911,2,"ok product, good customer service","received the item fast, there was a little damage on the plastic and they shipped a new one out right away. installed fine and does just what the description says. not for outside, but good for inside or protected outside areas."
140958,2,THIS DVR IS AWESOME!!!!,"I can not BELIEVE the reviews that I read! I wasn't even going to write a review for this but since there is so negativity about this DVR i thought i would at least tell you all that this is NOT A PIECE OF JUNK! I had TIVO, and i hated it, i had it for 2 days and from the moment i plugged it up i hated it, it was a 12.99 (probably more now) monthly fee and u had to have a phone line hooked up to it! anyways, i just hated it, period...then i got directv and i ended up with 3 dvr's, one in each room (i have 4 ppl in my household) and all of us do not have ONE complaint! It records 2 things at once, you can set it up however you would like for it to record, while ur recording something, you can watch another program.Do NOT listen to any of these horrible reviews, these people are insane to not like this machine!! This DVR is AWESOME!! I couldn't live without it!!"
140982,2,Beautiful!,"Among the thousands of books on Buddhism, what a joy to come across one by a real teacher! Thank you, Ajahn Chah, and thank you translators for this gem."
140998,2,Beautiful earrings...,"I love these earrings. They are really beautiful and so shiny that even with my long hair they're noticable.If you're interested in the size of the earrings, I would say that they're about the size of a quarter. Someone mentioned thick posts. The posts are the thickest I have seen but I like them. Every other pair of earrings I own have bent posts because I forget to remove them before going to sleep. Not these.The price is fantastic and they come in a nice box. Perfect affordable gift!"
141128,2,great bag to protect powerbook,this is a great bag to protect your laptop. you can use it as a stand alone or use it as extra protection. it is well constructed. well worth the price
141164,2,Great Martial Arts Movie J&J one of my favs,"First of all, I'm surprised this didn't do better in the box office. It is the first pairing of the 2 legends Jackie Chan and Jet Li in the same movie. I did go to the theaters and see it. It has special meaning since it was the last movie I saw with my mother before she died. Jackie Chan is my favorite actor though and the fight scene between them was worth the price. I thought adding the kid would make it lamer but it didn't bother me too much. If next time J&J do a movie it should just focus on them. I was impressed with Jackie's fighting in the movie considering his age. It has a good story and sort of reminded me of The Wizard of Oz, but the foreign version. I pretty much knew I would have to own this movie even before I actually saw it. If your into martial arts and think Jackie or Jet rock you have to own it. It is one of my favorite movies of all time!!"
141165,2,Greg,"I've been using this product for 2-3 years. It's awesome. I've notice at the V Shoppe its getting harder to find. Now I order it from amazon. I really hope they keep making it. Price is very reasonable. It's well worth it for me. A real life saver for me sometimes when my stomach gets out of control. Always delivered in a timely fashion also. Very, very happy..."
141219,2,Steamy Beauty and the Beast Story,I will try not to give any spoilers in this review. This book is my favorite book of all time. It is a real Beauty and the Beast story. It is all about how powerful love is and if people are meant to be together then it will be. The first couple of chapters are a bit boring but once you get through them the book starts to get really steamy and more interesting. This is the type of book that you will not regret reading and you will want to read it over and over again!
141228,2,It's the only book my kids want to read now!!,My kids and I both love the whimsical nature of both Farmer Brown books by Teri Sloat. The wording and pictures go perfectly together and are good for a laugh and putting us all in a fun and silly mood. I hope there are more Farmer Brown adventures to come!
141265,2,The best he ever made!,"Burt Reynolds play's a great cop in this movie. All the other players/actors are also very enjoyable!And let's not forget the lovely Rachel Ward!It's a shame that this movie did't get a lot of attention maybe it's an idea for a part 2? And then in dolby digital or dts?!For me the best Burt ever made, great that I could get it through Amazon..."
141276,2,Turtle Moon,I am a big fan of Alice Hoffman so anything she writes is fantastic by my standards. It was a slow beginning but it was a book that I couldn't put down as the story unfolds.
141305,2,Jaguar conservation,"There's an important message in this DVD. Watching the passion these scientists have for their subject is moving. This is a piece that should be shown in schools to boost awareness. An eyeopener, beautifully filmed and produced. Worth watching."
141320,2,LONG LIVE INSPECTOR CHAN OF THE HONOLULU P.D!,"It's been 3 years since Charlie Chan films were knocked off the Fox Movie channel thanks to the meddling of the P.C. special interest groups. Well, the wait has paid off as these films are coming to dvd. This first collection will not only consist of four great films: Charlie Chan In London (1934), Charlie Chan In Paris (1935), Charlie Chan In Egypt(1935) and Charlie Chan in Shanghai (1935). But among the bonuses, we get Eran Trece, a Spanish Language Charlie Chan film made in (1931) Here's a list of all the extras in this set:The Legacy of Charlie Chan Featurette - 15minsIn Search of Charlie Chan Featurette - 20 minsThe Real Charlie Chan Featurette - 20 minsEran Trece Fullscreen Feature (1931) - 79 minsCharlie Chan In London Theatrical TrailerEran Trece Theatrical TrailerKudos to Fox Home Video for having the backbone to finally release these films to us mystery lovers. Hopefully, Mr. Moto will soon follow."
141350,2,The Forgotten Art of Building a Good Fireplace,"The book is a good read and covers the subject pretty well. However, it is short on specific building details and long on sermonizing about how Count Rumford was right over two hundred years ago and everyone since then is wrong. These are still two hundred year old designs and even the most efficient fireplace is still a far cry from a good airtight woodstove. The forgotten art pretty much consists of having a specific shape of firebox, and the configuration of the chimney and smoke throat- all very good and important considerations. But if you are designing and building a fireplace, you won't find what you need here. A good general reference, but go elsewhere for specifics."
141351,2,"Queer Science, a good read","Simon LeVay's thoroughly goes through what it IS that `causes' homosexuality. Overall this novel is comprehensiveand and widely inclusive. He takes all different standpoints, including his own on the various standpoints of scientific 'theory' regarding homosexuality. The book itself is a good read, easy to understand and very straight forward. If you want a book that is mostly un-biased but discsses many facets of homosexualitythen look no further!"
141420,2,"Easy read for the computer ""non-literate.""","The scripts are top-rate. At a quick glance in the programs (most of which work in newer browsers, I might add), you could get an idea of what certain triggers and handlers could do. With the explanation of what they do on the side, it makes writing programs even easier. This well-written book (certainly not for programming professionals) is a must have for the beginning Web Page author."
141437,2,A fun adrenline filled adventure.,"While this is not for kids under the age of 16, this is a fun adventure race movie. Its basically racing in space with aliens and hot babes and weird technology. In some ways this movie was nostalgic for me because I'm a child of the 80's a lot of the plot and visuals remind me of the anime we got in the 80's, in a good way. You have girls, you have racing, gratuitous and totaly unnecessary violence and crazy stuns that are done for sheer craziness. I liked it a lot. While it is not something I'd watch often, I think most would enjoy it at least once and then bring it out every couple of years to watch it again."
141477,2,A Nazi war criminal hunt thriller.,"When a journalist, John Volt, finds an account of atrocities committed by an escaped SS Nazi prison camp doctor, left by a Jew that committed suicide, he is resolved to find and punish the criminal. He follows leads to various cities in Germany, and at last finds the Jewish organization hunting for the escaped criminals. They want him to infiltrate the secret Nazi hiding organization named Odessa. They provide disguise and false papers that identify him as an escaped SS Nazi himself. He infiltrates Odessa and manages to obtain a list of the SS members that have been hidden by Odessa. He is uncovered by Odessa and he and his girlfriend are hunted by the Nazis. He manages to track down the Nazi SS doctor, played by Max Schell, and confronts him. There is a surprise reason that Volt has persisted in his hunt for this man, and I will not spoil it for you by revealing it. If these hunt, danger type of films appeal to you, you will like this movie."
141487,2,Really good quality product.,Was really pleased with the product. The wire is a far better quality than any wire I've purchased in stores. I would definitely buy this again. Delivery was even faster than I had anticipated. Great job.
141493,2,The best mobile!,"We originally got this mobile because of the classical music and interesting colors and shapes that were said to be great for our daughter. It doesn't match with her nursery at all, but that doesn't matter, because this is the best mobile I've ever seen! She loved it. When we got it, she'd lay there and look at it and coo at the shapes for at least 20 minutes, which gave me time to shower or do other things that aren't really possible to do while holding a newborn in your arms.She is 9 months old and we just had to get rid of it because she was tall enough to stand in her crib and pull on the shapes, and I didn't want her to break it. It still worked fine, though, and I'd reccommend it to anyone. I think they have one with a remote control now too, which would be great for those times that you want to turn it on, but don't want baby to see you and get agitated."
141499,2,"Thank you, reviewers!","I just printed my first photos on the Canon i850 and I wanted to thank all the people who took the time to review this printer. I took your advise and I'm as happy with the results as I've been with any purchase I can remember. Now I realize why I bought a digital camera (Nikon Coolpix 2500) in the first place. The photos were stunning in clarity and color. I am concerned about fading over the long term, but, hey, I can always print another. Also, I printed out a regular text document and it is as good as the HP Deskjet 882C I've been using. The Canon i850 delivers!"
141503,2,Great Product,"My 3 month old loves this mobile & has since he was about 2 months old. The only problem with it is when the items slide down the bars as it rotates, it makes a lot of noise. He will not fall asleep because of this noise. The bright colors mixed with the black & white are great for baby's developing eyes. This mobile keeps him entertained for quite a while."
141518,2,A Life Saver!,"This is my favorite baby item! My six-week old daughter absolutely loves this mobile. It has auto shut-off after 15 minutes which is enough time for her to fall off to sleep, or if I need a few minutes to do chores this will keep her entertained. Whenever she is fussy we stand in front of the mobile and it soothes her. When I lay her down to change her diaper I turn it on and shee coos and smiles. It does make some ""creaking"" sounds in addition to the music but it doesn't seem to bother my daughter at all. Keep extra batteries on hand because you will be using this mobile a lot!! GREAT product!"
141590,2,Fun Radio,"This radio sits next to my PC and is on while I on the PC.I go camping up in the Sierra's most every weekend in the spring, summer and fall. And I listen to the short wave in the mountains. With all it's features and great sound plus being able to plug it in to my home stereo it's the best!!"
141666,2,Love these,"I really love this product and brand seeing as this is my second time buying it. I can't find these in store anywhere where I live, so it's great to have them available online. I would definitely recommend this. Thanks!!!"
141667,2,Much Better than the DVDs,"Visions of Italy [Blu-ray] If you have a blu-ray player buy this one. It costs less than the 2 DVDs available and has a lot more material. You could spend an entire weekend watching these 2 blu-rays. The videos are beautiful, the music is great and the narrations are excellent. Sicily alone is worth the price. Divetirti!"
141700,2,Signing at Sunday School,"An excellent book for beginning signers who are interested in religious signs. This book has incorporated signing of simple songs, the story of Jesus and four scripture passages in less than 30 pages! The pictures are easy to follow even for children."
141775,2,Fresh Prince and Jazzy Jeff are hip hop's Dynamic Duo,"I still remember hearing this on the local pop station when I came out in April 1988. I was turning 15, and that one song ""Parents Just Don't Understand"" still sticks out in my mind as the best song of 1988."
141776,2,He's The best and i'm enjoying it,"my friends uncle live nearby. hes listennin' only to oldschool rap so when i got the new will album he told me if i want to listen to hes early stuff. i was stunned! its simple, good & groovy! hes gr8, jeff makes cool beats. now that i have heard each song i can say ""Homebase"" and ""Hes the DJ, Im the Rapper"" both are the best. buy it, and dont listen to other newschool crap, like Lil Jon."
141807,2,Gifter,Gave this book to my granddaughter as a gift as she is majoring in all aspects of stagecraft. She was very happy with it.
141816,2,Very accurate,"I have used this test kit several times to monitor Nitrate in aquariums. It is the one kit that has been thoroughly consistent and accurate. You must use good light though when reading the results and follow the directions to the letter, that is important. I have found that viewing the test bottle against the card in direct sunlight helps to match the result to the closest PPM on the card. It can be a little confusing as the other reviewer claimed, but you are aiming for low readings to begin with and this brand is more accurate than the other cheaper one for Nitrate. And at this price compared to getting it at a chain pet store or LFS it is a great deal!"
141934,2,Dan Jenkins has surpassed himself...again !!!,"Yes, I too am a Dan Jenkins addict and I hope there is no cure. Rude Behavior is supra-classic Jenkins packed with one-liners, great characters, and an ending that is disappointing ONLY in the fact that you know the wait for his next book has started again. This is not a read for those who believe in politically correct language or situations. But, for the rest of us who wish to have fun, laugh out loud while reading, and wonder how Jenkins continues to maintain his high (or low depending on your point of view) standards,we know he has written his best book...so far."
141941,2,A Deadly Exchange = and exciting adventure,"Sheryl Stafford, the author, has done an exeptional job of writing a fast-paced, action-packed book. Once you start reading you won't want to put this page-turner down--and yearn for more upon its completion. This pleasure read would lend itself to a fabulously, exciting movie. I hope Stafford is already writing a sequel and this book achieves the notariety it deserves. So if you enjoy reading abnout thrilling adventures that take place in the tropical islands you will enjoy this book immensely."
141943,2,"Sound quality okay, must be aware of volume in crowded places","the problems i want to note are that the sound doesn't stay around your ears it eminates out pretty easily. and the sound quality is kinda iffy at times, it sometimes sounds ""fuzzy"" like its hitting its peak or something. whereas any other speakers headphones don't have this. maybe it'll get better with time?"
141986,2,spongebob fan,my daughter loves spongebob. she loved thee episodes. i am a big fan of the show as well.we look forward to watching more episodes together.
141993,2,grady nutt at his best,"The late great Grady Nutt was far more than his Hee-Haw persona. This little easy read book gives some insight into the true genius of the man, presenting biblical insights in a fresh and human way."
142073,2,A am so thrilled this book is back,"For years I looked for a reasonable copy of this book for a decent price, I scoured Ebay and ABE and found a few, but when I saw that it has been reprinted I was thrilled, this was a favorite book of mine as a child and I still have it in my head word for word. I can't wait to get my copy :), you will treasure it always, it is a wonderful gift for kids of all ages"
142111,2,A wonderful western without the usual cliches,"Mr. Lynde has crafted a wonderful story chock full of fully realized and believable characters. The hero of the tale Merlin Fanshaw grows and changes during the course of his adventure and is older, wiser but also less innocent by the story's end. The detail and accuracy about the old west in the book reflects Mr. Lynde's vast knowledge about the area and the era. This is one of the best westerns that I've ever read and one of the best books of any genre that I've read in quite a while. Highly recommended."
142154,2,Become a Social Magnet,"A good, brief book on how to deal with others. There are many examples of how to interact with people in ways that don't harm their ego. The final chapter is an action plan for the reader to fill out and follow up on, a great way to chart your success. Highly recommended."
142156,2,The best how-to book,"If you have trouble handling people, this is the book for you. Sure, it was written in the 1950s, but it does NOT need to be updated. Everything the author says is true; and he explains it all in an easy, understandable, and thoughtful way. One of my favorite parts is when Les Giblin tells a story about one of his friends who walked up to total strangers and chatted with them as if they were old friends. (""No one ever called him fresh or rude."") Giblin asked his friend what his secret was. His friend's secret is revealed; Buy this book, b/c it's worth it!"
142192,2,So AWESOME I couldn't believe my eyes!!!,"Fifteen years ago I had my caricature done at Tennessee's foremost theme park. I was so impressed with it that I used it on my business cards and letterhead (o, vain man that I am...). When I got this book in the mail and opened it, my jaw hit the floor. Mr. Parham isn't the master, he is the GRANDMASTER of caricature cartooning. I could not believe my eyes at how a few simple lines could so accurately capture the physical attributes and character of a person. I am a rank amateur with a desire to learn caricature cartooning and this book is the very best I have EVER seen. It is not written to be over anyone's head and whether you have never picked up a pencil before or been drawing caricatures for thirty years, you will learn much from this insightful training guide. This book is off the chart - a perfect ""ten"" on the scale of one to five stars."
142219,2,Plain Speaking,The words of Ed Fowler are a welcome change from the ususal gobbledegook that is heard today. I would enjoy reading Ed's observations even if I weren't a knife collector. Part two of Mr. Fowlers life quest is a continuation of the first edition and there's nothing wrong with that. It's refreshing to have a craftsman divulge the discoveries that has resulted in what I think is the perfect working knife.
142275,2,Pearl Jam's Greatness,"As a band that has been around enough time to be praised and trashed throughout their career by media and so called music experts, Pearl Jam is still able to prove that they are the ones to set the trend mark in rock.This album is the living proof of PJ's maturity and their knowledge (that only time can give) of what rock music should sound like.Intensity, crazy guitar riffs, monster drum playing and Eddie's vocals switching off the pace at the right moment of each song. Lyrics fall down a little, but it's like if they know now that music is the message, not so much the words.Using every trick on the book, PJ has pulled off the record that could and probably will put them back on the top.Only thing lacking here...a Black or Immortality kind of ballad to put the melancholy vibe.In sum, buy this, enjoy it and forget everything you thought you knew about this Seattle's band."
142281,2,Golden,"This is an awesome album. Pearl Jam's past couple of albums have been pretty good but not special, this one is a phenomenal piece of work. I've been listening to it over and over again and it gets better every time I hear it. Highly reccomended for any Pearl Jam enthusiast."
142284,2,[cheap price]!,"Man you gettin this cd...and its got 30 plus songs on there!Dog even if you arent fellin 3-6 you will w/ this gerat deal! Sippinon some syrup, and Where tha cheese at are some recommended songs for tha bass @ them fi-fi parties"
142340,2,What I expected from Mirman's website. Funny. Funny. Russian.,"lol, gotta love Eugene. Even when his audience doesn't initially laugh, he gets in a good zinger at himself and they laugh at that. He's witty without being condescending, and uncomplicated without seeing contrived. However, if you're not a fan of irreverant humor, this may not be for you."
142346,2,Sennheiser PC151 Headphone,"I bought these in May 2009 for an attempt at voice over recording for video productions. I have been purchasing Sennheiser (Germany) products for over 30 years. Remarkable sound reproduction from the headphones. Clear distinct bass, mid range and highs. Sennheiser's are the best I have heard though I confess I have never listened to music through a set of Bose headphones.The boom microphone voice reproduction is not perfect, but acceptable. The limitations being heard on large powerful floor standing speakers. In normal every day use (gaming, computers, etc.) they are very good. For the price and the performance features indeed I would purchase another pair.Amazon's shipping and customer service is great as always."
142445,2,Laughter...Laughter....Laughter,"It is at long last that I have waited for a really funny movie. It is a hilarious story...I absoultly loved this movie and plan to buy it to add to my collection. Owen Wilson is such a doll even with a weird shaped nose.(I hope he doesn't get a nose job because that is surely his signature.) It is hard to see Jane Seymore bare it all, even though it was done discreetly, because I still see her with her ""medicine bag,"" but she was good as well. If your a comedy buff then don't miss this one. I was glad to see that it got 'top comedy' and Owen Wilson get an award at The People's Choice Awards recently. I bet we will see this one at the Oscars!"
142472,2,Title of album is perfect description,"""Lovely Thunder"" is just that: an ambient tribute to tumultuous weather. Harold Budd piles layer upon dark layer of texture to create what feels like a brooding day in mid March. It all ends with the relentless ""Gypsy Violin,"" a twenty-minute masterpiece that seizes one by the soul. If you happen to paint landscapes, I recommend this album as background music for your studio sessions."
142528,2,would recommend,"Bought this stroller a few weeks ago and am very pleased with it. It maneuvers very easily and has a lot of space for daiper bag, etc. underneath. The only reason I am giving it 4 stars instead of five is because it's kind of a pain to fold, you have to push the front canopy all the way down first before it will fold properly. Once it does fold, it folds up pretty nicely and doesn't take up a lot of space considering it is a double stroller. It would also be nice if the front tray folded up to make it easier for the child to get in. Overall though this stroller is definately worth the money and the two complaints really aren't that bad, I really just put them in there for people like myself who are buying this online and can't take an in person look at the item before buying it."
142532,2,Great field guild,The book was sent quickly and was less expensive than at the local bookstore. It will be a great resource when I am birding.
142542,2,perfect for the price,"except for the color, these speaker stands were just what we needed. The quality is great and the shipping time and delivery were awesome...as usual."
142559,2,I love this book,"The book presents patterns in a clean way, easy to understand. I love looking at the quilts I could make If I only had more time : )"
142577,2,Entertaining but Predictable,"I liked the ""Bergdorf Blondes"" more, but I also found this book entertaining. It is an easy read and I loved the ending even though it was predictable. I would love to see the author write more books about the ""Bergdorf Blondes""."
142583,2,entertaining,"i dont understand why so many people have been so hard on this book. if you read bergdorf blondes you should have known what to expect and i thought that this book was a lot of fun and gave us a look at another high end lifestyle that most of us dont live in. it is funny and yes it is light and shallow, but i think it is still very enjoyable.not as good as bergdorf blondes but a great summer book anyway. if you are looking for a fun and glamorous book, then you should really get this!"
142660,2,Probably the best book I have ever read,"I read this book for the first time 7 years ago. When I got to the last page, I flipped back to the beginning and started again. I have never found another book that made me want to do that. I still reread and reread it. It covers 4 generations of a single family, set among the upheavals in Chile in the 1900s. It is at once funny, dramatic, sad, relevant, and I guarantee it will never bore you."
142722,2,Revival!,"Let the others have their radio hits, Jimmy's the man when it comes to true American music. This is another nice piece of work. Musically, it is very ""full"" sounding and the harmonies (with the ladies) are just terrific. A great group of musicians here (Andrew Hardin is always a plus). ""Lucky Man"" really hits home. A great song. Dont miss out seeing him live!"
142724,2,FANTASTIC! Great bargain...,"You will not find a better deal on a flat wall mount for your TV. I purchased this for my 37"" LG LCD TV and I could not be happier. It came with all of the necessary hardware to mount this onto my TV plus it had other hardware that is compatible with just about every other TV on the market today. Another bonus with this mount is it comes with two different mounting options, one that allows you to mount this right up against your wall, or you can mount it about an inch from the wall to allow room behind your TV for all of the connections. I went to the manufacturers website and this mount retails for over $200. If you purchase this mount, I can guarantee you that you will not be disappointed!"
142729,2,Great to reinforce language arts intervention program,I ordered this book when I noticed another intervention specialist using it with her students. I use it at a bell starter before my class begins. I copy two or three pages at a time each day for my third and fourth grade students. I like the format of the book. The activities are short which is why it makes a good bell starter.
142762,2,THIS GAME IS FRICK'N AWSOME,"THIS IS THE FIRST PERSON SHOOTER I HAVE BEEN WATING FOR, THEWI-FI IS SIMPLY AWSOME.

142870,2,The hinge area looked a little cheap and ...,"The hinge area looked a little cheap and I was concerned that it would adversely affect their cutting precision but it didn't. They cut beautifully and are easy to control for precise work. The only thing I'd change about them is to make the rounded safety tips slightly smaller. Overall, these are very good safety scissors that I'd recommend to anyone looking for such a product."
142950,2,Excellent Historical Mystery,"Kate Ross' Whom the Gods Love sold me on historical mysteries, but this book The Devil in Music, is the very best. Read it slowly to savor the language and locale. You will love this book."
142961,2,Christmas Music brings back Memories,"I bought this CD for my mother because it is the Christas music I remember her playing while I was little. (The record was lost.) I started the music playing while she opened the package. When she recognised it, she cried. It brought back so many precious memories. It was worth the price to see my mother's reaction. Tears of joy."
142964,2,A perfect game,"This game is perfect. It has an awsome soundtrack and stunning graphics. It has a big selection of professional skateboarders. it has cool tricks and lots of playingworlds like Tokyo, Canada, and Airport. It,s a good game, but it's a little hard so I rated it 4 star. But I'm telling you,TONY HAWK PRO SKATER 3 RULES!!!"
142975,2,Useful for teachers needed to add in music,"These games are great for using music to stimulate thinking, planning and connecting with emotional response. DO NOT CHOOSE THIS BOOK if you are looking for ideas around a progressive (building each week on previously learned) music skills education curriculum. It is great for incorporating music, rhythm and sound into everyday teaching environment."
142991,2,ESTE EL CD QUE ESTABAMOS ESPERANDO,"Por fin, una voz que no se parece a ninguna otra y un sentimiento genuino. Cada canción es una obra de arte. Me encanta la manera que tiene de contar las historias (muy parecido a Ruben Blades)Para mi su estilo es lo mas parecido a Alejandro Sanz en version femenina. La calidad del sonido y la profundidad de su lirica hace este el mejor CD que tengas en tu carro o en tu iPod. No te cansaras de escucharlo es sencillamente fenomenal. Solo estoy esperando la version Karaoke. Abran paso que aqui esta la proxima ganadora del grammy por best new artist en el 2008.¡Que talentazo hija que Dios te lo bendiga!"
143044,2,All American Cooker,Wow! talk about a quality made product this is it. If you want something that is built to last this is the product for you!!!
143092,2,best of lobo,it is a very good cd i grew up hearing him on 8 track lol so it was nice to find his music on cd loved his me and you and a dog named boo
143177,2,Really Good Read and Thought Provoking,"It's been a long time since I read something late into the night, as I'm usually too tired with a 2 year old and a 3 month old baby to spend much time reading at all. This book was very inspiring, though, and made me think about a lot of things. It's also written in a very entertaining, casual style and keeps you hooked. It is obvious that the book comes straight from her heart. I hope that women who are inspired by the on-screen Teri will read this and be moved to care for the neglected parts of their own lives. Many blessings, Teri!"
143244,2,"it works perfect, and that's all one needs...","got the item in a few days. i plugged it in and whoops, everything worked fine. surely something to recommend!"
143306,2,Three years later and I still feel the truth in the facts!,"I am reading Moore's books backwards. I have read Dude, Where's my Country. It was spectacular, as is this one also so. This book does not just stick on Bush though. It goes into criticizing Democrats also. It talks about Nader and how help could have helped Gore or hurt him. If you like Moore and agree with a lot of what he says then this is a must read."
143382,2,Mandy Moore demands more from second studio album,"Mandy Moore's second studio release Mandy Moore is definitely one of 2001's finer teen pop records, proving that the failure her 1999 debut So Real brought by no means makes Miss Moore one too. Sure, none of her two singles from her first CD had such a huge impact as Britney Spears's ubiquitous 1998 No. 1 ""...Baby One More Time,"" but the new songs from Mandy Moore really shows maturity and professional growth. No more teenybopper singles here, folks; just pure, sophisticated and quite solid candy. None of the tracks on this album are anything nearly as addictive as other teen queen's materials, but they show that this girl isn't just a Britney wannabe. Great job, Mandy! No doubt this record has been named Best of 2001's!"
143505,2,Good cheapo earbuds,"For around $35, these buds are a great deal. Once you find the right size plug and insert it into your ear canal for a good seal, you get a about as good sound quality - tight bass, clean treble - as you could expect for the price. Contrary to other reviewers, I found the ear loops to be a great help. The trick for me was to insert the plugs into my ear canal with the loop over my ear and the metal stem rotated forward almost parallel to the ground. Then once the plugs are in my ear I would rotate the stems backwards until they touched my ear. Works for me and I have pretty smallish ears. You can't just hang the earbuds off your ear and expect the plug to line up with your ear canal - you have to put them on in reverse."
143509,2,Second time around,"This is the second pair I have owned. The sound is quite good for the money.They stay in my ears no matter how active I am.The reason I had to purchase another pair is that the case that they come pinched the wire and caused them not to work.I am going to purchase the same pair without the ""hooks"" over the ears. Although they are perfectly comfortable they are inconvenient to stow because the hooks catch everything and they still would stay in your ears when not exercising."
143563,2,"With kid-friendly recipes and plenty of baker's tips, it's not to be missed!","The 200-some cookie recipes in this title differ from competing cookie cookbooks: they've all been 'kid tested', decorations are done with kids in mind, and MOM'S BIG BOOK OF COOKIES: 200 FAMILY FAVORITES YOU'LL LOVE MAKING AND YOUR KIDS WILL LOVE EATING includes special tips on baking for kids.

143620,2,Very Powerful Presentation by an experienced wall street options expert,This has been most helpful of the option videos I've seen since I was looking to learn specifically about spreads. It changed my whole way of thinking about options and now I am making much safer trades with a higher probability of success unlike before watching this one.
143621,2,Great story,"Morison was an old salt, and a very smart one. He also had a terrific store of knowledge, and it comes thru in this book."
143773,2,Great for Beginners,"Great book for people just getting started with PHP, even if you're not an HTML expert. She doesn't assume that you already know everything and walks you through the examples step-by-step.On the other hand, if you're already familiar with PHP and have been reading through the online manual, or have programming experience with other languages, you might want to start out with something a little more advanced.Definitely a clear, instructive book that's easy to follow. I'm sure I'll be buying other books by Julie Meloni in the future."
143781,2,Great original movie,This is not a re-make! This is Rob Zombies own take and follow-up to Rob Zombies Halloween! Watch it with a open mind. If you love Rob Zombies Halloween then youll understand and love this one.
143824,2,LOVE this pan,"Wow...if you want to make some great corn bread, buy this pay. After making my Jiffy Bread corn mix with a few secret ingredents, I put it into this wedge pan and bake. Bake to a golden brown, take out of the oven and let the pan cool down with the corn bread still in it. As the bread cools it pulls away from the sides....yummy. Highly recommend this wedge pan."
143943,2,One of my favorites of all time,"Been looking desperately for this movie, new or used. How can we convince them to rerelease this classic."
144082,2,"Please, Paramount/CBS...Reissue this set!","I hate it when ""They"" muck up a good thing.Why cant well enough be left alone? Why does everything have to be redone, to be made shiny and new?Star Trek is a TV Classic. It was a child of it's time, cheezy special effects and all. It's as if the Borg Collective reached back into the Paramount offices, and took over, saying, ""You must upgrade... you must conform...We will assimalate you"".Star Trek does not need to be assimilated, updated, remastered, or fooled with. Fans of the show love it for what it is, an OLD TV show and the warts be dammned. The TOS of Star Trek IS TV history.So please, Paramount/CBS: Reissue this set, and allow new fans to see TOS as it originally aired. Don't be like the Borg, and bury a true slice of American TV history for the new and shiny."
144100,2,Excellent Movie,"I was actually surprised at how well this film was made. It sounded like it would be entertaining just for the fact of the age of the boy to be adopted being 15 instead of 1.5. Top that with him being homophobic and it could have been a terrible movie if not done right. Fortunately, it was done very, very well and ends up being a touching story about a boy needing a family and they needing him."
144114,2,"Great, but it ain't no Astro Creep.","This cd is good with songs like, ""Welcome to Planet Motherfuber"" and ""Black Sunshine"". But it isn't even close to the genius that Astro Creep 2000 was. But this is a true metal classic and is the best CD of 92."
144123,2,Absolutely! One of THE BEST,I am 49 years old and was raised on this fine gentlemans' music. I love and buy all types of music. But ya know what? I listen to this CD at least once a week. Why? Because it makes me feel good!
144150,2,Fits the bill,I bought a number of these for friends taking a Spanish course in a retirement community. They are still using them.
144159,2,Light flavored tea,"I got this tea because it is supposed to help with PMS and supposedly helps ""prepare"" the uterus for conception. I figured it can't hurt, so why not? I think this tea is very light flavored. I usually put some honey in it and it goes down great.As for the rest, I've only been using it (3 times a day) for the past 7 days and haven't gone a full cycle yet, so I don't know if it really does work for PMS yet or not."
144260,2,Classic 80's metal!,"The classic 80's metal album re-mastered, not a horrible re-master like some discs I have heard. Makes it sound even better than the original. Vinnie Vincent at his best in my opinion...all of the guitar tracks are raw, no effects whatsoever."
144273,2,A good little copier,"We use this in a fairly busy one physician doctors office and we have found it to be dependable. It's fairly quiet, and gives us good quality copies.What more can you ask. Another good thing about this one is, there a good quality generic toner cartridges available on the web. That really is a plus when your doing a lot of copies per month, like we are."
144279,2,Perfect replacement Top,Fit's perfect and works great. We have been using this for over a year and have not had a problem with it. It does not overheat and wipes clean.
144308,2,Celtic CD,I purchased this CD for my daughter to review the music and choose Celtic songs for her wedding. She loves the music and is enchanted with Celtic music. The Cd was delivered in a timely manner and is of excellent quality.
144312,2,If you use rechargeable batteries then you need this!,"Truly a splendid product!First off the bundle is quite generous. It comes with various adapters, 4 batteries and a handy carrying pouch.I use a lot of different types of batteries with this charger and you can mix and match since each battery slot has it's own power rail and is controlled independently from the others.So you could be charging a AAA in one, a high capacity in another, and refreshing 2 other batteries all at the same time.The device is easy to use, but does require you to read the manual to understand the wealth of features it has.Very highly recommended!"
144364,2,"Fast and smooth, this book has a lot of flash, but some holes need patching.","This book is defintiely Brown's freshmen attempt at writing a novel, as no more apparent than several points of lazy character and plot development in the book (ala David Becker in Seville magically sumbling upon Meagan). However, it drew me into the story like no other author has done in quite a while, and I can not wait to read his next few attempts"
144401,2,Very Uplifting,"I am so glad to have discovered Julian of Norwich. A very different perspective, very uplifting."
144432,2,Great Timekeeper. Great Buy!,"I purchased this as a gift for my wife over a year ago. We both love it. It looks like a classic piece of antique furnishing but is keeps exceptional time as well. Well made and, other than batteries(which I haven't had to change yet), it is maintenance free. NOTE: if you are buying this clock for up-to-the-minute accuracy, you must be able to place the clock where it can receive the radio signal--if it doesn't receive the updating signal, it won't update--but it will still run fine. Highly Recommend!"
144436,2,The End of a great series,I hope this will be a great movie.I LOVE ALL THE STAR WARS FILMS.BUT I HAVE MY DOUBTS ABOUT THIS ONE.First of all must third movies suck.There were good ones like T3 and LORD OF THE RINGS 3 WAS GOOD TOO but overall must suck.
144463,2,Extraordinario documental,"Este documental realmente conmueve el espiritu al ver el valor de estos misioneros y sus esposas. Es recomendable ver primero la pelicula ""End of the Spear"""
144483,2,helped me confront my own racism,"I'm one of those people who was so bored in high school history class that I never took another history class willingly, although I went on to earn a masters (in another subject, obviously!) But I couldn't put this book down.This book has the power to create more love and understanding in the world. If you hear of a catastrophe in a third world country and take it less seriously than if it were here in the US -- as if they love their children any less, want peace, health and happiness any less -- you are racist. Have the humility to confront it and change it. The world will be a better place for it."
144576,2,I loved this!,"It is a very simple thought process. We all have had tragedy and triumph in our life's. Every one has been hurt, let down, lost the faith ect.. We all have gone through something. I enjoyed every minute of this video. But if you are only looking at that one thing you are missing the big picture of this video. I worried about everything. I still do, but now I fight to overcome this anxiety I have lived with. Who cares about how much make she is wearing! This is about making you feel better and getting what you want. I have put this to use in the last week and I am overwhelmed and surprised by the outcome of my actions, and what I have been able to accomplish. When I started to read the negative reviews on this page! I was shocked."
144616,2,Awesome book,"We all know the Secret, this book helps recognize what we already know and put it into practice. It works and is well worth the energy it takes."
144792,2,Good Movie to say the least...,"Well, I'm going to buy this because I really liked the movie.. but I could be easily further encouraged by at least a partial song list"
144796,2,review title,"This is an awesome album. It might not seem like it the first time you listen to it, but it grows on you the more you listen to it."
144922,2,Couldn't put it down.,Just finished reading this - what a great book! Love the fact that it is a history book combined with a true crime book. Can't wait to read Erik Larson's other pieces.
144923,2,It's been a long time since I stayed up until 2am to finish a book!,"But there I was! I was so close to being finished, I just could not put the book down. Of course, I saw people reading this book on the train every day, and never realized that it wasn't your run-of-the-mill crime story. Or that it was nonfiction. I regret waiting so long, and I can't imagine that there is a reader who would not enjoy this historical work."
145037,2,a great read about kicking butt with the guys,"Loved, loved, loved this book! If you've ever fantasized about what it would be like to be one of the boys, to be so kick-ass strong you could hang with a bunch of firefighters, this is a great read. Plus, it's really well written. Memoirs like these are often full of interesting details but written in such a way that they're a bit of a slog to get through. Paul's book reads as well as any great piece of fiction--the fact that it's all true just makes it all the more riveting."
145072,2,Audiovox DVD/TV,"This is a pretty good small TV. The image is sharp, the colors bright. The only thing I wonder about is how difficult it's going to be to disconnect the cable. The TV connector turned when I tightened the cable connection and I didn't tighten it any tighter than I've ever tightened any other cable connection. Time will tell."
145171,2,Phone Works Well,"I bought this phone primarily for the speaker feature, which works very well. In addition, I find all the other features easy to use and easy to read."
145175,2,Incredible Series!,"Empire of Blood was a great book. As an avid fantasy book reader, I rarely find books that follow main characters that are not the usual Human or Elven heros. Following Faros through his trials as the political structure of the Minotaur race unravels is exciting and interesting. Empire of Blood was written very well and I could really envision the story and felt connected with the characters.I would definitely recommend this series to any fantasy reader, but even more so to those that are looking for a new perspective on the fantasy environment and how the different races view the events that unfold in the world."
145225,2,Best way to make coffee,"Once you've tasted coffee made in a coffee press you'll never be able to drink coffee made any other way.This is my second Bodum 3-cup press. I bought it to replace the one I was using every day for the last five years. It's of excellent quality, very sturdy and easy to clean. Most of all the coffee is delicious.Bodum Brazil Glass 3-Cup Coffee Press, Black"
145231,2,Nice,"Simple interface, great functions. I love the address book feature and the Caller ID save to address book function. Great product."
145323,2,Fun and Challenging with a Couple Issues,Overall this a a good driving/adventure game. The graphics are OK. There are alot of places to explore and a wide variety of cars and trucks. The Wii controls are a bit tricky to master for this application and there is some violence and a few 4-letter words. Overall engaging and held my interest.
145394,2,Check this out!,I accidentally ran across this CD and it is great! I am really excited to find something like this especially since I had never heard of Love Riot before. So Beautiful is a great song and the music rocks.
145398,2,Almost perfect...,"aside from the second track (Bond-Victory) and the title track from the movie Braveheart, this is a decent classical album. The Bond-Victory selection is embarrassing commercial crap."
145493,2,Learning Tools,"I have only had the chance to peruse this book lightly thus far. From what I can see in the table of contents and thumbing through, the book covers most of the topics I'm interested in. Due to personal duties which require my immediate attention, I've not had time to give it my full attention. But once able to read further, I will be more than happy to update my findings."
145576,2,You'll never look at a Snow Goose again in the same way,"I am an avid birder,history buff and reader and have to say this is an exceptionally unusual and wonderful book for anyone at any age who enjoys life.I first read this book in 1992 and just picked up another copy to give to a friend.First published in April 1941 and by December 1942 had been reprinted fourteen times.The copy I just bought was the fifty-ninth printing in December 2000.That ought to tell you something..It is a small novella of only 59 pages and can easily be read in under an hour,and reread every so often.I strongly suggest you read the other reviews;they are all short,excellent and all have something worthwile to say. I might add that Paul Gallico also wrote The Poseiden Adventure.He died in 1976."
145587,2,A definitive work on copyright,"Copyright law can be a quagmire of endless questions and concerns regarding what materials are permissible for use and what are not. Nolo Press's fourth edition of ""The Public Domain"" represents (from a layman's point of view) a definitive tome that should be on the shelves of anyone who needs to deal with copyright issues. The book covers a vast amount of informative material regarding such diverse topics as .mp3's to choreography.Each topic is explained fully and the implications for use and failure to abide by copyright is very thorough. This book will assist just about anyone who writes or uses materials, has created a web site, uses materials in classes, needs to use copyrighted materials in public settings of just about any kind.I would highly recommend this book to essentially everyone who needs to use or create materials that are shared with others."
145605,2,A Fine Soundtrack,"I for one love soundtracks that you can listen too comfortably from first to last song, and which can be stand alone songs as well. This is one of those soundtracks! It certainly captures the moods and themes of the film: adventure, intrigue, and the more obvious themes when dealing with the Titanic of loss and hubris. McNeely and company have capture the entire spectrum for this underwater saga. I found the piano pieces, particularly ""The Grand Staircase"" and ""I...I Had To Go"" were quite stirring. They are simple piano pieces, yet the elegance and sense of loss is well captured. They are very nice to play on the piano yourself as well! You'll definitely want to pick up this soundtrack!"
145659,2,A favorite,One of my favorite albums to which I listen while reading. It really is a worthwhile purchase.
145675,2,Good Product,The LeapFrog: Learning DVD Set is a very good product. I love that it does the sounds of the letters which my 2 year old repeats. However I really don't like that in order to focus on the letters slowly you must go to that menu and click each letter each sound at a time. Though still very cartoony / entertaining a good learning tool that keeps the child's attention.
145693,2,Magnetism- Escada Women,I LOVE IT!!! Its not your typical flowery smell. Its hard to describe and I've yet to find one person who hasnt enjoyed it.
145698,2,Original Producton Was Better,"The original 1960's production sounded much better. This revival adds unnecessary new songs, expanding the simple play to include new Peanuts characters such as Sally, and makes unneeded revisions to some of the original songs. Note that as usual, Amazon is still the best website for downloading the widest variety of mp3 selections at the lowest price in the shortest time."
145778,2,He's Wonderful,"I have several of Michael's cds. I grew up listening to my moms records,Sinatra, Joe Williams, Nancy Wilson, Nina Simone, and I remember one ofmy favorite's by Nancy Wilson was Call Me Irresponsible. My favorite onthis cd is Dream, it is so pretty, I just love it. The whole cd is great.Michael's music reminds me of love and romance, and that is a good thing!"
145797,2,a really good pay per view from tna,im not going to say who is better tna or wwe cause i like both the reason i like tna even more now is cause of sting im glad they brought him back and im glad hes in tna cause in wwe they probably would of just wasted him and as far as lockdwn 2006 goes the matches that i thought were good were the world x cup preview match which had some good high flying moves from both teams and the fallen angel christopher daniels against his former partner senshi formly known as low ki and the xscape match another good match the anthem match was good too and the x division championship match was ok it was too short i would have liked to seen more action between sabu and samoa joe but it was still good and the two main events were the best matches of the whole night christian cage against abyss fantastic match and the lethal lockdown match another fantastic match to end a really good pay per view and im really glad sting is back and one more thing its show time folks
145883,2,Cant wait,"Jurassic Park the book and movie were my favorite things to read and watch. Im pre-ordering this the moment i get the money, cant wait for it get here."
145884,2,The dinos are worth the trip,"Yea, yea, the actors are awful. But the dinosaurs totally outdo all of that, and you forget that the people are fakey. The plot is fine. Everything makes sense. And the T-rex is great, as are the raptors. This is where the big dinosaur adventure begins. If you're interested in it, watch it. If not, don't."
146040,2,SO glad I found it!,"After a long time searching for this game, I got it. And I LOVE it. So glad I bought it. And I found a decently priced one as well. Thank you!"
146102,2,Father's Day humidor,Very nice humidor! It was exactly what I expected and what was pictured. I'm looking forward to giving it to my dad on Father's Day.
146134,2,Bagdad Cafe,"This film is an absolute gem on all levels! The cinematography really takes you ""between Las Vegas and no where."". It also has a soundtrack that is a must have, the haunting vocals & melody of ""I am Calling You"" the signature track, will make you want to watch this film over and over. For anyone that has ever thought about leaving somewhere, for ANYWHERE, Bagdad Cafe will speak to you!"
146135,2,What can be said about this Classic,"A wonderful cast. A great story line will keep you wondering, just what a great life we have when you open your mind and deal with life in a new point of view...."
146177,2,[Great] CD,"This I would have to say is a better album lyrically than was the first album. Both albums are good albums and neither sound the same. However it seems that more thought was put into the lyrics in this album. The album starts off good and ends of as well. Thank god they put Over My Head on this album...All the songs on this album are awesome. The best songs on the album are Something to Someone, Addicted, and Happy in the Meantime. This a great road trip album that everyone can listen to."
146179,2,Enjoyable hard work,"I have used this book as a reading-writing textbook for an overseas technical university elective course and the students just loved it! With a few videos and a couple of guest speakers from different cultures things moved perfectly as I imagined they would. A perfect book for an imaginative upper intermediate or advanced English teacher in multi-cultural environmentsKenan Yumurtaci, Ph. D. Eastern Mediterranean University Famagusta, via Mersin 10 Turkey"
146261,2,Better than anticipated,"Above par action movie. The bad guys are, as usual, really bad. The people to be saved, pure of heart. And John Rambo is pissed. Not a good thing for the bad guys. But the viewers will enjoy. A high gore content to please the video game crowd. An ending could be a sequel or did ""Gran Torino"" close that option."
146304,2,I laughed out loud,"This is the second Alice book I've read (after Alice on the Outside) and NOW I understand the popularity of this series. I thought ""Alice on the Outside"" was a little too mature in subject matter, but ""The Grooming of Alice"" seemed exactly right.Plus I really enjoyed this story a lot more. Many parts made me laugh out loud (and you really get some weird stares when you do that) and one part made me want to cry. When I get that involved with a story, I know it's good. Plus Alice's problems (and her friends' problems) seemed very realistic.I enjoyed this book a whole lot and plan now to read the next Alice book. And the next..."
146328,2,A Bastard of a Book!,"Yes that's right, once you start it you can't put it down and you realise just how many times you have been taken for a ride.Excuse the pun but looking back on my life, it is the most influential book, I have ever read."
146336,2,Mom loved these,I bought these for my mom (late 50s) and she LOVED them. She said they're so comfortable and nice. I plan on purchasing more for Christmas gifts.
146413,2,Good stuff,"This is another opening of Bleach, but this one is for the game Bleach Heat the Soul 2. The music is great. Awesome. Great. However, Once you listen to it over and over and over again, you get bored. But, still worth getting."
146441,2,the navaho,"i only watched this movie because i thought it would be about the american native indians and the part they played in the war. i didn't realise it would be such a minor part of the movie. had i known that i would not have watched.why the five stars, well for whatever little was portrayed, and adam beach and the one who who played whitehorse and all the other indians that took the time to be in this movie. it wasn't a total waste of energy.i think more movies about indigenous peoples should be brought to cinema."
146456,2,A Great Collection,"This collection has many of the standards from the era. Being of the early baby boom generation, these are songs of my parent's generation. Gave a copy to my mom who could reminisce with these original classics. We also bought one and enjoy the songs, the quality of the recordings and also remembering old songs heard in our childhood."
146483,2,"A ""Whistle Down The Wind"" promotion, but still top notch.","Wow! What can I say? Try to image a concert full of the most talented singers in the world singing some the most beautiful songs in the world. It seemed that the concert was basically one big promotion of ALW's new musical, Whistle Down The Wind, but the songs from there are amazing, so all's forgiven. P.S. Antonio Banderas is one UNIQUE Phantom. His performance with Sarah Brightman is NOT to be missed!"
146540,2,Very Pretty,"I was very comfortable in this costume. I ordered a medium/large and just barely fit into the top. If they had a large/Xlarge it would have been better, at least on top. I received many compliments....who doesn't appreciate them!! I'm really glad I bought this one."
146713,2,John Wayne,"The product was received as the seller described it. I am a John Wayne collector and have most of his movies. Some good, some not so good but if it has John Wayne anywhere in the movie I want it. Thanks... Denny"
146716,2,smartlady loves books,"This is a great book, sure to enjoyed by every mystery book reader. It's truly an old classic,and belongs on every home book shelf. I highly recommend this book. This is reading for fun in it's essence."
146747,2,Very pleasant,"This is such and excellent book, I must research and see if the author is still living. My original copy of this book purchased about 10-15 years ago was chewed up by my chihuahua. We still kept it and my daughter who married last year remembered it and wanted to re-read and use since it had helped her germinate a mango pit sucessfully when she was a child. The book is such a pleasant read and gives such great advice on germinating odd seeds and pits. I'm so glad I was able to get a ""new"" copy and have sent it to her as a gift. The illustrations are excellenty done by the authors wife. I'd love to meet them and have them autograph by copy."
146763,2,A fun romp,"The last two books in the Stephanie Plum series have felt formulaic and dull, but Eleven is a definitely not. Stephanie quits her bounty hunter job, shaking up the formula and giving her a chance to work with the dangerous sexy Ranger. This leads to all kinds of fireworks and keeps the plot zipping along. A great fun quick read."
146776,2,Important tools,These tools suits some person who is not a mechanic...they are very strong tools...being a woman I am able to manage them quick well..not big and difficult to use...these tools are can be use around the home...especially to help remove a screw on the lawn mower and the weed trimmer.....
146891,2,"Uhm, why do I need a title for a review?","One of Dream Theater's best albums, rivaling Scenes from a Memory in my opinion. There's something for nearly everyone in hear, ranging from fans of Dream Theater's heavy metal side to fans of their progressive side and fans of their softer emotional work. Must buy, for 1st time DT listeners to hardcore fans (like myself =D)"
146904,2,The Perfect Book,This version gives the reader a in depth study into Gods word (with very informational sidebars)
146924,2,you have to be in the mood for it. and a little insane.,"i like the locust. but not all the time. sometimes the loud, herky jerky, abrasive, 1000 miles a minute blasts of electronic noise made by justin pearson and co. are just what the doctor ordered. usually if i have an excess of energy i need to release. other days it really rubs me the wrong way. a sidenote: my girlfriend and my brother both hate this music as do alot of other people, so listen to the sound clips before you buy it. but if you know what youre getting into then this is the locust album that you should buy. the other ones are too short to justify how much they cost. except maybe safety second body last. its short but still has some snazzy electronics. proceed at your own risk."
147037,2,good book,Barrett Willoughby was a family friend and included grandfather Hill and great uncle Sid Barrington in one chapter. I found the story factual and authentic.
147099,2,this movie made me love gena rowlands,before seeing this movie i never knew who gena rowlands was(that was about 15 years ago) since then i have seen most of her film work and she is the lovliest actress since ingrid bergman.i really enjoyed this funny and realistic movie about 2 misfits looking for love. i especially loved the scene where seymor(cassel) cuts off his mustache! rowlands expression is priceless!
147135,2,Deep Like The River,"South Boy goes with his friend Havek on a Mojave name-quest. It sounds simple -- but under the surface is a breath-taking wealth of experience, mythology and understanding of the many personalities in one person, or one horse, or one culture. Every sentence of this book is laden with knowledge of its time and place. Even the mention of the ""little yellow catfish,"" about which no more is said than that they ""make good eating,"" reflects the fact that in this period the US Government seeded the Colorado river with the Yellow Catfish, a transplant from Texas. This is the key to the book -- that everything is in flux, as two cultures melt together, and new ways try to live with old ways. The ending seems to be a conclusion -- until you realize that it's only one more step to escape from final decisions. The book begins a long way before the first sentence -- and would finish a long way after the last. Dreams and visions reverberate through the telling, and Great Things are done."
147136,2,Crazy Weather book for children and adults,"This book reflects historical perspective of Mohave Valley area (AZ) and Mojave Indian tribe. Very interesting for children (ages 8-14) as a read aloud, or for independent readers (readability level = grade 6). Great addition to a classroom library or home."
147198,2,"Crystal & Gems for healing, spirit, & ascesion!","Diane Stein has gone deeper lately into healing, spirituality, and ascesion. I have always loved her Goddess spirituality books, but these are even better! Now when I shop for stones I can get more appropriate stones for healing, etc. Even though the book is small, it is worth its weight in gold!"
147269,2,Great gate!,"I own a small dog grooming shop and needed a gate for one of my doors. Bigger dogs can jump over so I just have to be careful who I let stay in the room. Only problem is the bar on the floor, people keep tripping over it. Be sure to put bright tape on it to stop accidents."
147282,2,ONE OF THE CUTEST MOVIES,"I THOUGHT THIS WAS GREAT & THE LITTLE GIRL WAS SUCH A DARLING,BEST OF ALL THERE WAS NO VIOLENCE OR PROFANITY.IT GIVES AN UNDERSTANDING TO THE OLD CHILDHOOD FEAR THAT WE ALL ONCE EXPERIENCED & HELPS CHILDREN TO SEE IT IN A FUNNY WAY, RATHER THAN THE FEAR OF THINKING THAT THERE ARE CREEPY SCARY MONSTERS UNDER THEIR BED. MY CHILDREN LOVED IT!"
147382,2,Love this Aroma,"Bought this for my wife for Christmas. We lit it and the aroma is just perfect, not too overpowering, and not too weak. The wick burned steadily and reliably. Will buy more when this one expires.kone"
147395,2,Easy & Delish!,"I can see this method would be great for Moms with families but I have raised my children and now cook for one or two on a regular basis. I love Ms. Yarnell's method! I cook and eat only organic, healthy meals and this is so easy to put together, then do whatever I want to around the house and presto! there's my dinner! Gloriously Impressed!SueB."
147401,2,Regarding the Quality,"In regards to the reviewer who wants a cleaner transfer without interlace lines. Most of these library releases only go back to the best original video masters. The best case for the color episodes would be D1 component masters. Then, tape to tape digital clean up if needed. Cheap cleanup ads digital noise though. It's too expensive to retransfer all the original film. The market isn't that big.Now let's get Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea released!Oh the pain!"
147405,2,Comfortable!,"I'm 70. I purchased this for what it is, two female voices singing great pieces. The Lakme duet I first heard on Yanni's first album. (I lead a sheltered life) From there I found the opera Lakme. I really liked the way the duet was written. Then when I purchased this album I just knew it would have to contain the Lakme piece. Well, did I luck out or what, two arrangements of it. The first is most like the opera version, the second time is is a very unusual arrangement, but still likable and interesting to listen to. So at night, we put this album on when we hit the sack, and I rarely hear the third or fourth piece before I am sound asleep with some of the most comfortable duets I have ever listened to. Every time I wake up I start it over again. Terrific album, do it again Babes!!!"
147420,2,Absolute Best Anatomy Text,"This is by far the greatest most comprehensive anatomy text available. Catches all the errors and inconsistencies between Grant's dissector and Netter's, and is an indispensable tool alongside an Atlas (like Grey's or Netters) for learning medical anatomy. A must."
147430,2,A great introductory course,"I've looked at many books on quantum field theory and this is without doubt the best introductory work I have found. The Weinberg book jumps in at the deep end, the Kaku book jumps in at about 6 feet deep but this one allows you to at least climb into the pool. It's a rare intelligence to be aware of how to lead one's reader along the learning curve and these authors display it. Typo errors occur at the rate of about one every two pages (did anyone read the proofs?) but they are easily discovered if one follows the math carefully."
147441,2,Fav magazine,"I love this magazine. My favorite. Every time it comes in the mail, it motivates me. Very good material especially for those who want a strong body. Not just skinny"
147458,2,Disco lives!!!!!,"Wow, what a great DVD! All the singers were awesome and sound incredilbe. I saw this program on PBS and had to have it. I was thrilled with the whole DVD. Must have if you like or grew up in the Disco era, brings back a lot of memories of a better, funner time in our lives."
147504,2,Stellar,"This phone does everything. I am extremely pleased with it.Only a couple of complaints:1. I had to return my first phone. It would charge for 5 seconds when plugged in, but then act as if I unplugged it. The nice folks at Sprint replaced it for me, since I was within my 14 days of buying it.2. Some software makes it crash. Beware the ""Documents to Go"" software.But even those two complaints are minor. This phone is fast, reliable, user-friendly, and the chicks dig it."
147521,2,Great purchase.,"For me it was a great purchase, I'm very pleased with the service & fastrespond from the seller.I will continue to buy from Amazon, for the years to come.Thank you.Sincerely:Jesus Pena."
147529,2,"Good product, just beware some problems with the installation","Overall, I've been happy with the product. But, due to an initial problem with installation I'm only willing to give it 4 stars out of five.The problem:When I first hooked it up I discovered my motherboard only had one IDE port so I tried to get the DVD drive to share the port with the hard drive. The first time I booted the system up, the DVD drive ended up crashing my hard drive. In order to get the DVD drive to work properly I had to buy a new motherboard so I could give the DVD drive it's own IDE port, away from the master hard drive.Now that it has it's own port the drive works just fine and I'm really enjoying it."
147557,2,Vincent Price is the Man!!!,"Amazing set containing such movies as the Dr. Phibes collection along with the Tales of Terror, Madhouse and Theater of Blood among others. If you're a Vincent Price fan, this collection is for you. Classic Price movies that will have you laughing or spooked out. Great set if you're a fan!"
147595,2,A Wonderful Book,"Well, there's really a lot to say about this book. First of all, Friends is the best comedy series ever, so you really should buy this book. In my opinion you'll enjoy it a lot. Second of all, if you buy this book, you can get your friends and all the people that you know out of control with this book, because it's a book that has everything you want to find in a book. Finally, buy this book, 'cause is the best, and like in the title of the book: FRINEDS 'TIL THE END. !!!!!!!!!!!!!"
147597,2,really helps,"My husband is allergic to one of my mother's cats and I got him this ionizer so we could have some time with her over the holidays. In the past my guy has been asthmatic by the end of dinner, but we were able to spend substantial time there without him having distress.I agree that the batteries are a bit of a pain- unless you remove or reverse them they run down when the item is not switched on. And the batteries are camera batteries that were not available at all stores, we had to get them at the drug store.It worked for us, just be sure to have spare batteries around."
147623,2,"The Party, starring Peter Sellers","I found ""The Party"" with Peter Sellers even funnier than ""The Pink Panther"". Peter, as a self-effacing, smiling, incredibly polite, and immaculately dressed Indian gentleman stumbles by mistake into an elegant party. What happens next is almost unbelievable!"
147641,2,perfect,"I love my laptop desk, very easy to assemble. I use it every day from my chair to my couch to the bed. Very easy to adjust, sturdy and comfortable. The shelves are just a added bonus."
147675,2,book review,"I felt that Amazon services was good and was surprise that it came to my place at the time it did, because of the holiday I thought it would come much later.The first book was very informitive the dates,times,the clothing. The customs about the Native American Indians I enjoy very much, also I was very excited to be able to read the next book what I have read so far."
147681,2,Simple story enhanced with fine art.,This story is simple enough for babies-small children to enjoy and the illustration is inspiring.
147684,2,The Second Chance,Entertaining movie with a very good message. Highly recommend watching this especially in these times.
147694,2,Dear Thomas,"Do you honestly think you are hurting anyone but yourself with your little, personal boycott of these bands or people on the DVD?They aren't even aware of you, nor would they care if they were. Save yourself the uselesness of it and grow up.God forbid anyone have a different opinion.If you can't see the downright ignorance and laughable swagger of ""George Dubya"", then you might be a redneck....go cornhole yourself a possum with Ted Nugent."
147747,2,Not hard to make a decision on this one....,"Ok so you have to make your mind up when watching this if she was raped or not...NO IT WAS NOT.....watch this documentary with an open mind, as i did. i did not judge this untill the end...then i came up with ""no it as not rape"" that girl could have left at any time, and never made an attempt to do so...make you own mind up but do watch this..very interesting.no it was not rape.she got scared and cried rape...i would say she regrets that now."
147816,2,very good to accompany a great poem,"Some of the words and phrases in Chesterton's great poem, ""Lepanto,"" are obscure and even those that aren't benefit from the context provided in this slim volume. I read ""Lepanto"" several times a year - not just on October 7 - and consult this volume for its insights."
147822,2,This cd blew my mind,"Get it. Epic album from start to finish. Indie rock at its finest.MUCH MUCH better than their other album ""Unsettled"""
148005,2,Best speakers for the price.,"Great sound, crisp and what not. I need to continue typing words. I just want to rate it not type a novel."
148032,2,Best movie of the year!,"Gangs of New York is one of those rare films that grows on you after seeing it, the more time passes and the more you think about it. Like lots of movies, I enjoyed it the first time I saw it, but unlike most, my opinion of the movie has grown with reflection. The story, script and acting are all top notch, and the 19th century urban American setting is a virtually untouched goldmine of dramatic potential. Destined to become a classic."
148110,2,Excellent movie to follow the series.,This movie does an excellent job at following up with loose ends left by the series. Now they just need to get up off their butts and make more like this.
148179,2,What else can I say that hasn't been said already?,"This was the second piece of work by Judy that I ever owned.I can't tell you how many vinyl sets I wore out. To have the entire concert finally available on cd is an honor. Although the vinyl and previous cd editions were good-this one tops them all. It's pure Judy-what else can I say. Buy it, put it in your cd player and be prepared to be blown away."
148190,2,good stuff,"Purchased food on a referral by another dog-owner who's dog suffers from IBD. Good stuff, smells like tomato. I find the soaking period a bit of an inconvience, but probably worth the preplanning. Haven't had any problem feeding to my 4 dogs. Dogs look healthy, good appetite, but didn't fix the IBD unfortunately."
148197,2,An in depth look at the Pope's views and logic,"I will not take up your time to repeat what has been written by others, but to agree that this book is not a leisure-time project. It is a deply thought out paper,a detailed essay of then Cardinal Ratzinger's viewpoint. I bought it as an insight to the mind of the new Pope. In view of the conflict of today's religions it provides a thorough history and a unique viewpoint from a man whose wisdom is evident on every page. A good book for a long plane ride or for quiet moments when you can steal away to concentrate on one's faith."
148206,2,Down Right Divine,"The Village Poet opened me up to new thoughts and ideas. The Poet is so real, deep and profound. This book is perfect for all people because it tells us what we need to do to have an effective life and society. It is clearly shown that the poet has a great deal of passion and well being for his people. I agree with the poet that we all must strive for perfection and the only failure is when you have failed yourself. The Poet says, kindness is not a weakness, but a virtue. People tell me I am too nice all the time, but when I can help someone I fell I have done a Godly act. Just a few pages of the Village Poet have given me a wiser outlook on life than I had earlier today."
148227,2,TARGUS CITYGEAR 80,CD/DVD CASE HOLDS UP TO 80 DISKS - QUALITY CONSTRUCTION - SLEEVES ARE VERY SOFT AND HOLD THE DISKS SNUGGLY - RECOMMEND WITHOUT HESITATION.
148239,2,Pleasure Booster !!!,Very nice sensation and aroma. With a light breeze you get a cooling effect which is good when things get hot!!!. My lady has had no objections when I use the product and in-fact she enjoys applying it on my junk. Definite must have for the bedroom.
148260,2,Its not an experiment - its a fact!,"The Intention Experiment is a great book to explain a powerful force that has been known by humans for thousands of years. Now 'science' can confirm it. Truly this is not 'new' - but that is not an attack on the author or the book - they deserved full marks (and its a great read) - what is interesting is the fact that this is the discovery of how manifesting works, which was taught by Wattles, Haanel, Edison, Hill, etc wrote about and taught for so many years.You can understand why/how it works with 'The Intention Experiment', but if you want a set of instructions on how it works just for you to get what you desire - just go back to the source:Think And Grow Rich: The Personal Study EditionThe Master Key System: The Personal Study EditionPath To Prosperity - Mastery Of Destiny - Acres Of Diamonds: The Personal Study EditionThe Science of Getting Rich: The Movie - 2 Disk Set"
148265,2,Content is good. Format is distracting.,"Marcus has written a great book here, no doubt. But I have to be a simpleton when it comes to the style. The pages are sort of split with 2 stories going at the same time. It does get to be a distraction. That aside, I would recommend this book for those not easily distracted. Veganism is the best lifestyle. Cheers."
148268,2,clinical laboratories methods,"i want to review the some clinical laboratories methods ;as serology,parasitology ....andhematology."
148278,2,A wake up call or perhaps getting ready for a let down experience,"Graven Matters is a book of reflection and introspection. We have taken things so much forgranted and we should not. We have come to be a society of people who don't want to take care of the matters of death. Rarely do people want to talk about such things, but Graven Matters brings the things we need to know, up to the surface where we can deciminate the things we need to be aware of an plan for our after our own demise from this world. Well written and informative, it is a book that made me order two more copies to have on loan to friends and family. Thought provoking and enlightening, this is a keeper and a mind enriching book."
148356,2,Great perspective on a controvercial subject,This book has very enlightening perspective on the creatioist view of the Grand Canyon. I highly recommend reading this if you are geology nut.
148381,2,Excellent Album,"One of my favorite albums of all time! Death Cab For Cutie is seriously one of the best artists out there right now.1. The New Year 4/5 Great start2. Lightness 3.5/5 A little boring3. Title and Registration 4.5/5 Great4. Expo '86 3.5/5 One of my least favorites5. The Sound of Settling 5/5 One of my faves on the album. Up beat and interesting6. Tiny Vessels 5/5 Very underrated. Listen to the whole thing! It's a beautiful song.7. Transatlanticism 4.80/5 Very good song. A little boring, but beautiful and meaningful.8. Passenger seat 4.5/5 Very slow and soothing9. Death of an Interior Decorator 3.80/5 Alright10. We Looked Like Giants 4/511. Lack of Color 5.25/5 Beautiful song. one of the best ones on this album.I recommend this album to anyone."
148463,2,love story,"awesome book.. at first sight picks up a little after true believer ended... you see jeremy and lexie's relationship blossom and grow.. i cant really say too much without giving away the ending to both books.. but it is an awesome love story that really makes you think about love, life, and how to deal with situations that are totally unexpected."
148514,2,Love,I love this movie. I love Mr. Miyazaki. I love you.P.S. I have the title of this movie tatooed on my ballsack
148520,2,Love love love,"This movie has always been one of my favorites. Great story, great price, great everything. Was very happy to find a copy for a reasonable price."
148554,2,Delightful magical realism in the 19th-century West.,"This is an excellent book. I don't think I've read anything quite like it. A mysterious woman wanders into an encampment of Chinese workers in the 19th-century West. The men there are worried, both for her--she won't speak and clearly needs help--and for themselves, because they could get in a lot of trouble if a white woman is found in their camp.One of the men is assigned to follow Sarah Canary--an arbitrary name, since she won't tell anyone who she is--and get her back to civilization, or at least safely away from them. In the course of their wanderings, he and Sarah visit a hospital and a hotel, and her reluctant guide has to protect her, and himself, from men who consider a crazy woman and a Chinese man to be easy victims. Fowler shows us a different side of the Old West, one of the parts that doesn't involve wagon trains, gold prospectors, and cowboys."
148570,2,Great Entertainment,"My nine year old loves this story, and I enjoyed reading it with him. Lots of laugh out loud moments in the book to enjoy together."
148574,2,The Best!!!,This stuff is the best spray to use when you first get a piercing. I got my belly button pierced at a not too reputable place but I bought this and used it religiously and it never got infected. I've had it for a year already and its perfect. I had lots of friends that got their's done and it got infected but mine never did. So buy this if you plan on getting a piercing done. It's the best.
148641,2,multi card reader,Good multi card reader. Well made. Wish the XD and smaller card slots were easy to use
148646,2,It Works,"I use the reader for my Mac as I need a one-stop solution to exchange files with different devices, (PSP-MS Pro Duo; Digital Camera-CF Card, NDS R4-Micro SD). The reader is able to read/write all 3 media that I own at the same time at good speed. Auto-transfer button doesn't work on Mac but I don't need it. My only complain is it doesn't have a eject button for CF card which would make it easier to remove the darn thing. Beside that, everything work as I expected, good investment I would say."
148657,2,Great Family Movie that everyone will love!,"If you are looking for the Great Family Movie for all ages to enjoy, this is the film for you. When I first heard of this movie several years ago, I was like this is a movie for women; however, this assumption was very wrong. I bought this DVD trilogy set for my mom because she absolutely could watch it every day. She loves great family movies with little or no bad language. She and I both would definitely give more than 2 thumbs up."
148680,2,Truth,"I absoulutely love this book. If you apply its principles in your life you will definately see a change. I have very little to say about it because it is such a personal experience for me. If you find yourself reading this review, buy the book you are meant to read it."
148696,2,The actor is Rogers and Morgan.,Ms. Rogers is beautiful.She worked with Mr. Morgan before.It was the Kitty Foyle of 1940's.She won Academy Award then.
148705,2,My favorite book ever!!!,"I picked this book up in my inermediate school library.I didn't realy think much about it,I just grabbed it carelessly 'cause my teacher was rushing me.But that Friday when I got home,I didn't run to the computer like usual...I picked this book up.And I read it for hours.I even read it a second time!At times I was so happy!!But then at others I would cry and cry,parts were so sad,and so happy,and so surprising!And when she had to make important desicions,I was right there trying to make them for her.I have read many books in my life,but none have been so touching,and wonderful.Please pick this book up,you won't regret it!!"
148785,2,Yummy,This works great in our popcorn maker. It makes the popcorn have the great movie popcorn look. A must buy.
148799,2,Kitty Wells,"Majella reminds me a little of Kitty Wells. Majella has a beautiful voice!When I first listened to Majella, she was not a favorite of mine. The more I listened to her, she became one of my favorite singers!!!"
148802,2,The real story,"First off this game is not set in russia. Not even the cold war. Hell its not even set on earth. The game is however very much like fallout in that you have mutants, cyborgs, and a similar levelup system. However as of right now the game has many bugs but a patch is going to be released soon (already released in russia) that is reported to fix most of the bugs."
148827,2,I LOVE YOU'RE GUYS MUSIC IT GREAT KEEP UP THE GOOD JOB,I CAN STOP PLAYING MY TAKE AND SMIPLE ON THE WEB PAGE IT TOUCH MY HEART SO MUCH I'M GLAD YOU CAME TO PHOENI FIRST ASSEMBLEY OF GOD PLEASE COME BACK WE WOULD LIKE IT EVEN PASTOR TOMMY BARENTT
148894,2,Great chain tensioner,"This chain tensioner is a wonderful product. It keeps the rear wheel from moving forward. Because of that,your chain tension will stay tensioned for areally long time. The onlycon i can think of is that there was no instruction manual included. Installation was easy but i structions still would have been nice. Other than that, great product."
148895,2,Camera Bag,"Wish I could fit my cigarettes too. But I can fit my camera (Samsung S73) three SD cards in cases, like 12 AA batteries, USB cord, and my cell. It's definitely big enough! Good buy!"
148900,2,Bueno totalmente,"Llego en perfecto estado, estoy muy contenta y agradecia con la compra, recomendable totalmente, pesonas cumplidas y correctas con lo que envian."
148966,2,Love Kendra!,"I just bought 'Kendra' and it is great! Spent all of yesterday watching and loving every fun-loving minute. I especially enjoyed the 'bonus' episode when Bridget Marquardt came to dinner and sort of 'interviewed' Hank and Kendra. That episode was not only a great re-cap episode but also had a lot of deleted scenes and behind the scenes info. Very nice. The only reason I am not giving 'Kendra' 5 stars is because the bonus episode is the only bonus, there is no commentary like on the GND dvds. I was not really that surprised though, Kendra was usually pretty vocal about not liking to do the commentary."
149032,2,"So glad I discovered Phillips, Craig, & Dean","I heard the song ""Will You Love Jesus more"" at a friend's funeral and I knew I had to have that song.I think I listened to that song 20 times in a row. Beautiful! Their message, their harmony, the instrumentals, definitely God's hand in their music."
149057,2,excellente,"excellent option for amateur, good videos, easy.Para alguien que busca algo economico esta es la opcion, buena capasidad, buena imagen, facil, con menu en español, lo unico a criticar es la ausencia de una tecnologia para situaciones de oscuridad, ya sea por infrarojo o lampara de resto me parece bien"
149090,2,"Best series I have ever read, sans doubt.","It was a very interesting book, with a full rich world. I have read all the books in the series numerous times and cannot decide which is my favourite. The book is set in a civilisation that compares with about 1000 AD. Except that women have important roles in society. I recommend the entire series to everyone."
149113,2,The beginning to an addictive series of books,"I have bought and given out so many copies of this book it is surprising that they haven't arrested me for encouraging the use of an addictive substance. Be ready because if you start reading Eye of The World, you will not be able to stop. You will find yourself with one book after another with you at all times. When you finally come to the last completed book (12), it will be an empty day. What will you read during the little snatches of time throughout the day? How will you escape the doldrums? Nothing will delight your life like Wheel of Time. The last book is promised to arrive soon, so I decided to read the first over. It was 20 years ago when it all started. I have to say, the first book is as good the second time through as the first time, what fun."
149179,2,"Sharp LC-26D4U AQUOS 26"" Flat Panel LCD HDTV","I purchased this flat-panel unit for my bedroom as I did not want an oversized tv here and this was the only small HD TV that accepted a cable card. Although there is a downside to cable cards, I was not interersted in two-way communication for a bedroom tv and it saved the $12.95 monthly fee for a cable box from Comcast. The picture quality is excellent and I have no complaints about this product."
149198,2,"Throw away the mop, bucket, and chemicals","I have had this machine for several months now and have not regretted making the purchase. My husband thought I bought it to periodically steam clean the tile and was surprised to find that this machine REPLACES the mop and bucket.I do agree that the loudness can be a problem in closed in spaces (i.e. shower). Therefore, until I purchase earplugs, I will continue cleaning the shower the old fashioned way.I use this machine to steam the tile, ""dust"" the window blinds and other items that have small crevices, clean grout between the tile, and clean the highchair. There are other uses we have yet to try.We are pleased with the cleaning ability of this machine. It sure beats working with lukewarm/cold water. I feel things do get cleaner and there is no chemical residue afterward. Several hours later (unplugged) , the water in the tank is still very hot.Bottom line: even if you get this machine to just steam your floors, I think it is worth it."
149212,2,Citizen Eco-Drive Watch,"The watch is fine and I believe it's a good value for an ECO-Drive watch however, the band on the watch fits an eight grader not an adult. I had to purchase a new band out of box. Product arrived as promised and I am satisfied, except for the band. Citizen Eco-Drive Men's Chronograph Canvas Watch #AT0200-05E"
149239,2,A True C/S Web Survial Guide,"Althpough written back in the 20th century you will find a better overview how the distributed, client/server, Web world works and functions. the soapbox panels are the recommendations I've seen todate. The author's writing style and clarity are just what illustrate the subject areas well for both newbees & techies alike.I am eagerly awaiting Ms. Edwards next book on whatever subjectr she decides to tackle!Do NOT miss the other books in this series produced by her, her husband Dan & etal."
149324,2,Opened the lines of communication between us,"This book was great. It was funny and honest and I found myself agreeing with 99% of everything said. Plus, it got me and my husband talking about our issues with each other instead of us silently resenting each other. I could read him an excerpt and it opened the lines of communication. It really helped us to see the other's point of view and now we feel much better about our relationship. I highly recommend!"
149395,2,I love these girls,"On his 16th birthday, Tomokazu Mikuri had a realistic dream where he sees a girl battling a giant floating monstrosity. When he wakes up, he is surprised that the girl is actually sleeping next to him. When ever he sleeps for now own he ends up back in the dream world, and more and more people that he knows shows up there too."
149397,2,Can't Wait for the Next Book,I am a fan of Debra White Smith books and this one was as delightful as the others I have read. I am anxiously awaiting book 2 in the series!
149457,2,Has its problems but great overall,"This is one of the best high-fantasy series I've come across so far. I finished reading this book several days ago and thought it really good. It's involving, thorough and overall, it's great! My only problems are Medea's pigheadedness and how she's really unreasonable in her thinking (but Stuart Hill may just be commenting on the average teenage mind) and how the Icemark's new allies are essentially copies of ancient African and Middle-East Kingdoms. A little more creativity, *please*.....This book is still worth a read, though. Odds are, you probably won't be disappointed."
149474,2,Great selection,"This is a very enjoyable and ambitious CD. The selection is broad and full of gems. John Barrowman's voice has an earnest quality, seeming tailor-made for the youthfully optimistic ""I Chose Right"". In my opinion, Barrowman is at his best in lighter selections such as ""I'd Rather Go Sailing,"" and ""Dreamers."" He also does an excellent version of ""Can You Feel The Love Tonight?"". Not so successful are his renditions of ""Good Thing Going"" and ""Sunset Boulevard,"" which seem to beg for more melancholia and cynicism, respectively. He is definitely a likable and charismatic performer, as comes through on this recording and as can be witnessed in the movie, ""It's De-Lovely"". The arrangments are quite good in this recording, and it is a pleasure to listen to over and over again."
149513,2,yummy,these are very good a great licorice tastewith a little subtle spicy taste !! This was myfirst purchase on amazon. Shipping was quicknow I am curiously addicted to these awsomeAltoids
149655,2,I like the way the cord is retractable,This is a very suitable for traveling hair dryer. I like the way that the cord is retractable so it's very practical to travel. It may be a bit bigger than other portable hair dryiers but that way's because it's 1875w which makes it powerful too. Overall I'm happy with it and I take it traveling with me every trip.
149690,2,Great movies that age very well,I love this box set and if you are a James Bond fan who always thought about buying the dvds now is your chance to have all of them at once!
149700,2,CD of the year,"As an Australian I am completely blown away by the depth and quality of this Album (this is not much Latin music available in Australia). I must admit I bought this CD after travelling through Argentina on holiday last year. A good album usually has 3-4 good tracks, this one has probably 7-8 that I list as excellent!. Aburrida is undoubtedly my favourite. It will probably be another 3 years before Natalia is 'discovered' in Oz, in the meantime this album will keep me going."
149704,2,Bale does a good job,"Interesting plot and well acted by Bale and the Chinese girls and boys. Sort of like ""The Left Hand of God"" with Humphery Bogart but more interesting and more twisted. Very enjoyable."
149715,2,"Quick, Fun Read","I would actually give this book 4 1/2 stars. There were some(very few)slow spots in this book, but overall great book! I loved the main character's outlook on Valentine's day, it even went on to explore why she hated it so much. It showed the ghosts of Valentine's Day, just as a Christmas Carol does but much more interesting in my opinion.This was a quick, fun read and I will be looking for other stuff by this author!"
149743,2,Nicest non-stick pan!,I have had many non-stick pans. This is the nicest that I've ever had!! The surface is very durable and everything cleans up nicely!
149789,2,The Lover,"I have long been a fan of Michael Hoppe and just discovered this excellent album. Michael has gone beyond his great talents in this album. His arrangements,combined with Tim Wheater's reading of Carl Sandburg ,are moving beyond belief. Although I've only known Tim Wheater as a flautist, I was completely stunned by his mellifluous voice reading these poems. It was soul-stirring to hear his words against the backdrop of Michael Hoppe's tender arrangements. After each 3 poetic tracks there is a haunting solo interlude of Hoppe's music, which is totally poignant and heart-moving!.This album can send you to undreamed of heights.. I think this is one of his finest albums. If you don't like the spoken word this album is not for you, but you just might be pleasantly surprised if you dare take a chance."
149872,2,G600 is simple and produces excellent photo prints,"I have had this printer for about six months and am very pleased with the results. The printer comes with a ""starter pack"" that will print 5 to 7 pictures so you will want to get an additional paper pack. The output is excellent - as an amateur, I cannot discern the difference between these photos and those from the photo lab. They even have ""Kodak"" printed on the back of the paper! I have printed about 50 pictures so far with NO snags. This is the best photo printer I have owned (much more reliable than the PictureMate by Epson with its ""cloggy"" print head and you can touch the photo right away without smudging unlike the full-size HP Photo Printer PSC-2210). The largest picture pack will give you prints for about $0.20 each - not too bad to get instant results!"
149883,2,Well Done,"For one who is less than detail obsessed historically, I found Borneman's treatment of the subject balanced and the writing pleasurable to read. I also appreciated the attempt made by the author to separate fact from legend of various important figures of this war. For example: Was there a bit of the poltroon in Washington's character when he showed, at times, more prudence than courage? Was there a bit of the opportunistic scoundrel in Maj Robert Rogers who might have turned traitor had the offer been presented and price been high enough? Was General Wolfe really the genious he's been credited with being or simply fortunate that his focal directives were misinterpreted in the outcome's favor at key moments?All in all, this book is highly recommended."
149888,2,Good movie,"Primal Fear is a really good movie, it was full of suspence, and the ending you would never see coming."
149891,2,An excelent crime drama !,"This movie is a real sleeper. This is a terrific crime drama with a great twist. Edwarad Norton's performance alone merits viewing. If you can stand a blinking , whispering Richard Gere you are in for a real treat. I would highly recommend this for viewing for anyone who enjoyed Presumed Innocennt ,And Justice For All or Body of Evidence. An excellent thriller not to be missed!"
149930,2,Succeeds at being the most immersive...,"...technically advanced installment in the myst series. I was a bit clumsy with active-panning feature at first, but it didn't take long to get used to, and it definately enhanced the gameplay. I personally didn't have any installation problems, but I'm running Exile on a Mac G4.There are some parts where the live action segments are a bit blurred by the 360-pan feature, but I'd have to say that it is much more integrated into the than in myst or riven. The opening sequence right before you link to J'anin (or however you spell it) was an interesting surprise. Poor old atrus :) tee hee"
149962,2,"light,slim,reliable and very functional","it is not only water resistant but waterproof.Amazingly low price for the quality, has everything (light,stop watch,date,day,etc...)I needed cheap light,slim watch cause i was tired of checking time with my cell phone.this has everything i need for watch and a bit more."
149999,2,Looking forward to the Reunion CD,"This album was a good effort, but not indicative of Mark See's best work. I was fortunate enough to see him back in the 80's when he played in the Myx and Human Nature. The drummer especially was awesome in these groups and the chemistry in the band was awesome!I think that this CD is a good primer for his talents but the key to the best future efforts of Mark See rest in his past."
150002,2,"replacement part, works great","it's hard to review a replacement part for my bathtub, so I'll bottom line it, it installed easy, fit perfectly andour dripping faucet is fixed. We ordered it on a Sunday night, and it was here by Tuesday afternoon, as you can imagine with a leaky tub, this was a big plus for us and it's nice to know you can order such a part online and get it in short order so you can make your repairs."
150144,2,A incredible vampire read,A great begining to a great series. I've read all of Wilder's books and am anxiously awaiting the latest one.Will hate to see this series wind up.
150223,2,Good soap but it evaporates fast.,"The soap is great, smells OK and leaves skin feeling clean and silky but the bar does not last very long."
150224,2,Perception vs. Reality...Tiger Woods,"I loved this book!...whatcha see is not usually whatcha get on the PGA tour...Curt Sampson has captured the reality of Pro Golf, which is not seen on network TV or The Golf Channel. As a former PGA Tour caddy I can vouch for the fact that while the TV cameras are rolling these guys put on a good show but off-stage they won't give you the time of day...Curt Sampson has the inside track on what really happens inside the ropes on the PGA Tour and he shares it with all of us...Tiger, Phil, Charles Howell III...nobody is immune from criticism...and that's the way it should be...after all... aren't golfers people like you and me?...a good book...fast read...and right on the money...Capt. Randy Brown"
150277,2,Beautiful illustrations and timeless stories,"I took a chance when I bought this book. I like hardcover books with beautiful illustrations and this definitely meets both criteria. I grew up with Birbal stories and they have a very fond place in my heart. He is the clever court council whom the evil ministers are trying to get rid of, but with his wit, he manages, not only to foil their attempts, but also impress Akbar the king with his clever mind. The stories are just like I remember them, but what makes this book priceless is the illustrations. I believe pictures help us transport ourselves into the time in which the stories are set and the stories remain with us through our lives. I am sure my son will love this book as much as I have."
150333,2,God Is Love,"What a great Christian novel. I read it in a day. Thank you Ms. Muray for giving us a story that is relatable. A story of love,hate,trust,betrayal,loyalty,and fidelity. The greatest lesson was in forgiveness and faith. I felt so good after reading Temptation. As Kyla kept saying God Is.We must keep God the center of our life. Good luck."
150345,2,EXCELLENT!!!!,This book is great!! A real page turner-suspense all the way. The clues are laid out so well and the story really flows along. It is hard to put it down!! Gerritsen's best yet!!
150359,2,A blast from the past,"I enjoyed the latest installment of Emergency! It brings me back to simpler time in my life. Seing the stuff that they went through and seeing how much has changed in the medical profession is interesting. I worked ER's several years, and the changes in treatment and who they can save is so phenominal. Just an enjoyable bunch of episodes. MAA"
150376,2,Eerie and Soothing,"This peticular track is a very sexy song, that I find to be quite intoxicating to listen to. If you get into the lyrics and imagine a story to go along with it, you'll kinda spook yourself out."
150391,2,Writing that is truly among the best - and what a story!,"I'm not a fan of the supernatural genre but this book transcends genres. It is part ghost story, part mystery and also includes a serial killer. In short, it holds your interest.The writing makes it a total standout, with phrases that will not only echo deep into your soul but also invade your dreams. This is the stuff of good fiction, plain and simple."
150433,2,well worth the price,I bought this dvd at wm for a little over $10. You may not know some of the cartoons. But that don't matter to my 2 yr old grandson. To me it is well worth the $10 I payed for it
150516,2,Great Alternative to Chemically-Laden Shampoos,"I've been using this product for about a month and have been using Aubrey shampoos and conditioners for about 5 months now. I really like this shampoo, it definitely gives my fine hair some volume and bounce along with shine. It has a nice flowery scent too. I also use it on my children. I would recommend this shampoo."
150556,2,Almost too good to be true!,"If you're a Galaxy Express 999 fan in the United States, for a while you were pretty much out of luck. Only the first two movies had seen official USA releases, and the only way to see Eternal Fantasy or the TV series you needed a good internet connection and some patience. Finally were getting what we need, Discotek has finally released Eternal Fantasy in the USA and the show is being licensed by S'more Entertainment. When I first heard about these releases I almost couldn't believe it.As for the film itself, its pretty good. Better than Adieu Galaxy Express but nowhere near as good as the first movie. Just keep in mind that it takes place after the TV show, it does not follow Adieu. My only gripe is that its much shorter than the other two movies, its a gripe but not a big enough one to have a star removed."
150562,2,Great Jars for storing Oil Paints!!,"I purchased a set of these jars for storing my oil paints. As a professional oil painter, nothing is more frustrating than trying to squeeze oil paint out of an uncooperative tube. I thought I would try something different and purchased these jars to store my oil paints. Not only have the oil paints remained ""fresh"" with every time I open the jar, I have not had to put them in the freezer, which is what I used to have to do with my palette of unused oil paint after every session at my easel. These jars are great! They have a perfect, air-tight seal and have helped me to not only preserve my oil paints, but it is easier to see the colors, how much I have used, and it is easy to scoop out just what I need with a palette knife and return unused oil paint back to its container. If you are an oil painter, I highly recommend these jars for storing your oil paints.Susan Vaughn[...]"
150616,2,Bravo!,"Anyone who is a fan of Julie Andrews (or Disney for that matter) is aware that Julie can no longer sing as she once did due to a botched vocal cord surgery. The album does not state that Julie Andrews sings, just that she selects. This a great collection of WONDERFUL disney songs endorsed by Disney's Anniversary Chairperson and a true Disney star. You will enjoy this CD as a first, or maybe second to your disney music collection.Good Choices Julie!"
150632,2,funfun fun,this game is nothing but fun and some hard stuff but overall fun oh and when you come to a rock you cant push on your own bring your partner and they will help you push if that isint working then make shure your pushing from the right side
150684,2,Fun music,"I heard a clip from this album on NPR, checked it out online and ordered it. It's fun, upbeat guitar music. It's good for listening in the car when you don't want too much noise or distraction, and it's peppy enough to keep you interested. Glad I ordered it."
150730,2,Yummy Jelly Belly,"The best tasting jelly beans, plus bonus ""recipes"". Taste the same as the original!"
150877,2,AWESOME!,Book came in reasonable amount of time and is in perfect condition! CD was included. Very happy with my purchase.
150900,2,Beloved Benjamin,I read this book when i was in the 3rd grade and i am now going into the 8th. I can barely remember any of it except for what happens in the end. I remember thinking it was the best book I had ever read and being so surprised at the end. I was so sad when it was all over. I recommend this book for anyone.
150921,2,wonderful teaching book!,every christian should read these books. each is filled with insights for both new and old christians alike!
150930,2,Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway,What a great book full of insight material. The best thing is to buy this book with the intent of constantly reviewing and usingthe material contained within its pages. Now I know why a lot of fears persist. Not your usual motivational hyperbole. Thank youSusan Jeffers
150975,2,Awsome DVD 2 Thumbs up.,I love quartet music & this is another great one. If anyone Likes quartets they should pick this one up. They won't be sorry.
150982,2,I love all her in death books,I love her books you get to know al the characters and I just enjoy the way she writes. can't wait to read her new one
151086,2,An excellent printer,"It's already been more than one month I didn't have any problem with this printer since the first date when I bought it through Amazon. I got professional quality prints both colored and black & white. Moreover, it's price is really affordable if we compare with other good quality color laser printer."
151113,2,"VERY sturdy, great quality.","These measuring cups and spoons are definitely a heafty design. They will not bend in brown sugar like most medal measuring utensils. Worth the price! The cups are heavy though, so be prepared for that. The oval design allows the cups and spoons to fit into boxes and spice jars for scooping. I have been completely satisfied with mine and expect to have them for a lifetime, that is if my 10 month old doesn't lose them during playtime in the kitchen :)."
151191,2,Lulz,"It's crude immature humor, fart jokes and stoner laughs. My kind of movie, I don't really like Family Guy all that much, but he even points fingers at himself in the movie when he says ""I do not sound like Peter Griffin"" so at least he's acknowledging the fact that he's milking it. Anyways, Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis are pretty funny together. People who don't know who don't know or appreciate Flash Gordon probably will hate this movie. People who don't curse or use curse words as adjectives or poetry will hate this movie. People who don't do drugs of any kind will probably hate this movie. Worth a watch, you probably shouldn't watch it if you take yourself really serious because this is a movie about a teddy bear that does drugs so if this concept bothers you then go away."
151240,2,Such a good movie,"Very funny, makes me laugh every time. Definitely worth buying instead of renting. Just a great movie. Probably not appropriate for kids though..."
151275,2,Beach music,My favorite book and author. I reread it every 4 years. It is like an old friend. Pat Conroy's cook book is also great
151478,2,Action!,Wasn't sure about this movie and I ended up liking it. I'm glad I have a big screen TV because it must be watched with the full movie effect
151531,2,It does what it is supposed to do,"I use it with a Cannondale Mixte on a Hollywood Rack. Have taken a couple long (800 mile) trips with no issues.My only concern with this type of design is that the bike is essentially hanging by the handlebars and the bicycle seat. Make sure your seat and shaft is tight - you don't want it to pop off if you hit a big bump. This has not been an issue for me, but I worry about it."
151556,2,Best price out there & works on the ORIGINAL Xbox too!,"First off I would like to say that this wireless adapter is compatible with the ORIGINAL Xbox. I was skeptical until I found the model number on Microsoft's website and it matched the one listed here. I also looked at several vendors both online and local to compare prices, noting that they all charged around $100 I was very happy to find Amazon selling at a reasonable price. My son was anxious to get set up online so we ordered on Thursday using our Prime account and it arrive on Saturday. I think the most difficult part was removing it from the packaging, otherwise he was set up within minutes. Overall a good deal and easy purchase. I would recommend this item to others looking to go Live."
151586,2,Fabulous series,Absolutely loved London Hospital. It's highly entertaining and you learn so much about hospital conditions from years back. I'd recommend watching both series. The cast is great and everything authentic. I wish they'd make more.
151612,2,Systematic theology,"Written so a lay person could understand it without a lot of research. Subject matter well covered.Good, thought provoking"
151641,2,MJ's talent is very limited,"One of the previous reviewers said 'MJ's talents know no bounds.'Hmmm...... I'd say his talent ends when you get to playing your own instruments, writing your own songs and penning lyrics that are better than Hallmark greeting cards. Don't get me wrong. I love this album, but let's not get too carried away w/ praise for MJ. He's a wonderful dancer and a pretty good singer and that's IT. I mean he's only released FIVE albums since 1979! I'd love to hear some of your comments.Chris"
151646,2,Still his best,"I remember playing this over and Over, it was the first Music album I ever bought. .."
151662,2,As advertised and better.,"I work a 12 hour shift and my coffee stays not warm, but hot throughout my work day. Love it."
151718,2,Great item for the price!,It was easy to install and works great. It's not as strong of a flow as some of the reviews state. It's definitely a great product for the price!
151727,2,Gift for my sister,"My sister just loves it!We are opposites, this is not for me but if you like motorcycle stuff and all, it's for you!"
151745,2,A very funny cd for my grand children.,"This cd was a wish list item from my 2 grand daughters and I am one to please them, so I bought it for them."
151753,2,A Movie Ahead of Its Time,"Paranorman is one of the most progressive movies I've seen in a long time. The story consists of relatable characters, an intriguing plot, and excellent animation. Paranorman is a film that appeals to all age groups and is very much a family-appropriate movie."
151764,2,Brand New Condition!,"The book was in brand new condition and better than i expected, plus the shipping was very prompt!! WONDERFUL!"
151796,2,Talented Christina Aguilera Shines,"As another graduate of the infamous Mickey Mouse Club, Christina Aguilera may seem like another Britney Spears. But one thing is different. Talent and potential. Christina has both. Britney Spears only has potential. Led by her award winning rendition of the song Reflections from the motion picture, MULAN, Christina's melodic voice puts some pop into her latest smash hit..Genie In A Bottle! Christina A has the talent and potential to become the next MARIAH CAREY. While Britney Spears will fade as time passes, Christina Aguilera is pop's leading voice of the future! Isnt it OBVIOUS????"
151815,2,Nice CD/DVD carrying case,"I bought this many years ago and still have it. It doesn't get much use, however I was/am very happy with the quality."
151959,2,"Sleek looking shoe, but..","The shoe is not only a graceful looking shoe in the picture, but sleek looking on the foot. However, the underside of the buckle is a bit uncomfortable as it presses onto the foot. A band-aid stuck to the underside solved that problem."
151978,2,Sure fire success,"Months ago I began this eating program and lost 15 pounds. Before I went to Europe for 8 weeks, I told several of my friends about it. I stayed as close to the plan as possible during my vacation and returned the same weight. My friends had lost between 25 and 40 lbs and are all off their high blood pressure meds. We all now know that we have control of our weight forever - got to go, my brown rice is ready!"
152012,2,Great Cast - Unpredictable,Good movie with a great cast with out of the normal situations. Good fantasy type of movie with so-so characters becoming stronger as the movie progresses.

152048,2,A Sweet EP By Jason Martin's Starflyer 59,"You really can't go wrong with this album! ""Fell In Love At 22"" is such a sad, beautiful song. The remainder of the songs are equally as good, especially ""Traffic Jam"". I'd have to say that is one of my favorite songs of all time; it's fourteen minutes long, has no words, and has the most CHILL value of any SF59 song. You can put on your headphones and close your eyes and drown in the music. No kidding, this is a great EP and is SO worth 6 bucks. 4 stars."
152064,2,Terrific & Simple Chopper,"This is an excellent product. It is so simply, grinds/chops nuts easily and quickly for salads, baking, pancakes, sandwiches, etc. And, for left-overs just turning it upside down stores them for a while. I've yet to have a spoiled nut.The grind selection is easy, one side grinds finely, the other by turning the grainder upside down grinds more coarsely. Finishing up, just put the cap on and it's closed for the next use. I've also ground cinammon sticks in it, and some dried herbs. To clear it out, just grind up some dry-out bread."
152133,2,"Heart wrenching, excellent performance as always for Wells.","Living in those times of WWII, I remember how we all wanted to say goodbye to our loved ones and believe they would come back again, without a scratch on them. This is a true love story of how he loved his wife so much he did not want her to have to live with the ""man"" that returned. He did not realize that her love for him was so strong and alive, she could and would have loved him forever no matter what. Natalie Wood was wonderful as the little girl. Great supporting work from Greorge Brent. I'll always love Claudette's smile and manner. Her best role was in ""Since You Went Away."""
152136,2,"For looks, It can't be beat... durability, however...","...is something completely different. It looks great, but the cocking action itself gave out after a few months. And it probably isn't the most powerful thing in the airsoft world, but you can't beat this price!!!"
152139,2,Not just for dust heads,"When I heard that Cage and Tame One of Eastern Conference were getting together to make an album entirely about angel dust, i was a little skeptical. Despite the singular topic matter, the album is diverse; 100% cracked out rhymes by both Cage and Tame who have stepped up lyrically from their previous releases. The beats come from a variety of big underground names: Mighty Mi, J-Zone, Camu Tao, RJD2, El-P and others, each providing a different soundscape for the leak bros. demented lyrics. My favorite cut would have to be RJD2s cinematic ""Gimme Some Death"". The only cuts I didn't like was J-Zones as it sounded too much like one of the beats he gave Akinyele and El-Ps. The only guest is Yak Ballz on the hook of the first song. If you are a fan of the Definitive Jux or Eastern Conference rappers, or of rappers in the horrorcore genre, check out this album."
152163,2,Very Good!,"This is not for beginners,is for intermediate/advance; you need to be familiar with your tap steps. this DVD is well explained and steps are very clean. very good routines including traditional steps. a must have for hoofers."
152179,2,.....hi,"I'M OBSESSED WITH THIS SERIES!!!!!!!!!!!!Umm, yeah, that might be over-doing it, but......not by much. @.@Yeah, i <3 (heart) this series. And it's spelled K-U-R-O-G-A-N-E.Mokona rocks my socks, Kurogane's funny, Syaoran is somewhat oblivious *yep....* and Fai's a little bit TOO optimistic.I love the side-conversations with Mokona and Kurogane and Fai.All in all.......*What's the 'all in all......' again?**I don't know make something up!!!*...ducks are cool."
152247,2,Glenn Jones - Back with his awesome style!,"Glenn Jones is a classic R&B Artist. In his 3rd cd nothing has changed from this artist, sounds great as always! If you like the sounds of Luther Vandross or Donnell Jones, Freddie Jackson do not miss this cd. Perfect music for that special someone in your life. Personal Forvorite, I Wonder Why."
152279,2,Botanical Study,"Dr. Sidney Blake developed a competent and thorough compilation of vascular plants in his hometown, totaling more than a thousand taxa. It's a unique baseline for additional study."
152475,2,Another Great CD by This Artist,"Rob Whitesides-Woo's work is a favorite of music therapists, because it brings out the best in the listener. Great stuff!"
152498,2,Refreshing!,This is one of my favorites. I'm on my third bottle and will continue to wear this as long as it's being sold.
152575,2,excellent and comprehensive,"Make no mistake, this book isn't for military enthusiasts who want to know about the operational history of the planes mentioned and who shot down what with it, leave that to the hundreds of other books out there on the same subject. The purpose of this book is to give you a true in-depth and technical understanding of each of america's fighter aircraft.This is a true technical resource book that is also fun to read and will educate you on the true handling characteristics of the aircraft contained in it. It constitutes more of a pilot-related information bible than anything else, this is the book to hit if you ever get lucky enough to be offered to fly a warbird, it also makes an excellent resource to those who want to create simulations or wargames.In the end, military aviation buffs will find it extremely interesting, but this is truely a pilot's guidebook."
152576,2,A gripping romantic suspense,"A creepy, dark romantic suspense. Overall, it was a pretty excellent book.The plot was well executed and nicely detailed. It kept me into the book all throughout. The subject matter is dark...dealing with child abuse and murder. So if you've got a weak stomach, you may not like it. Shayne doesn't go into too vivid detail, but she does relay enough that it churns your stomach a bit thinking about the poor children.Romance wise...I will say I think Shayne could have done a little more. As with all the books of hers I've read, the romance seems to fall to second place to the plot. It's not an unbelievable romance, but I would have liked a little more development. Regardless, I did like Vince and Holly together. They were a workable pairing. And Holly's character was wonderfully done.Otherwise, I've got no real complaints about the book. There wasn't anything that just didn't work. So I'd recommend it."
152592,2,Almost just what I was looking for but not quite.,"This mat still works extremely well to work dough on, for biscuits, bread, cookies. I had once heard that it was so nonstick that dough rolled out on it would come off easy but my all the different kinds of dough I have used have so far stuck unless I dusted with flour first. If using cookie or biscuit cutters be careful not to press to hard or it will weaken the fibers in the mat. It had a small unravel on one end that was not a problem until my little boy found it and started pulling at it till about 2 inches were unraveled. I just cut off the messed up edge and it still works great. It stores better for me folded and in an opened ended plastic pouch I have also stored it rolled then slipped into a long paper bag. When storing be aware that the surface if the mat is a bit tacky from the silicon and whatever it is laid upon it will stick to a little and may pick up bits of for example lint, dust it has come in contact with while in storage."
152813,2,Why prices are so high for HDMI,"I think I got a great price. The price of the cable was even lower than the so called wholesale or as low as wholesale stores. If there is any difference in quality, I can't tell. Fast shipping, good quality, and fantastic price.""DON'T GO ANYWHERE ELSE!"" unless you feel better by paying more."
152890,2,Look Who's Talking/Look Who's talking too,"This is a great DVD purchased at a great price. The story is built around small babies and their common sense thoughts about zany adult behavior. These thoughts are verbalized by Bruce Willis in the first movie and accompanied by Roseanne as the ""little sister"" in the second movie, Look Who's Talking, Too.The kids are ""too cute"" and and the situations are hilarious. This movie is definitely worth the money!"
152996,2,Odor-Free Diaper Disposal,"We love the Diaper Genie. If you want an absolutely odor-free nursery, this is the diaper pail to buy. We have had no problems with ours. It is very easy to use and has lots of safety features so you can be sure your baby or toddler won't get into it. We purchased ours on the recommendation of my sister-in-law who has a 2 year old who can make some real stinkers. There is not a trace of diaper odor in his nursery. It really does work.The only bad thing I can say about the Diaper Genie is that we think the refills are priced too high. Plus we've run into problems when our local store is sold out. We recommend that if you see the refills on sale at a good price, buy at least 10. It's always better to have some on hand than to run out."
153031,2,Great resource!,"This book has been well-used during my time in Germany (stationed here with a military husband). On weekends that I feel the need to get out and enjoy the country (which is a lot during nice weather!), I just grab this book and go! The maps and suggested tours are wonderful!--Vicki Landes, author of ""Europe for the Senses - A Photographic Journal"""
153122,2,Great sound,"I'm very pleased with these earbuds. The sound is great and the price was very reasonable. I've spent more and not gotten sound this good. I did think that the case would automatically retract the cord, and it does not; however, a manual winding case is better than just mooshing the earbuds into my purse or even a different kind of case. Bottom line: definitely worth buying."
153126,2,Nice For The Price,"I'm on my 3rd pair - not because there was anything wrong with pairs 1 and 2 - but because the kid's expensive earbuds crapped out and they thought mine sounded better than their's had, so I forked mine over and bought more!Little plastic case was great for keeping the earbuds neat and orderly and easy to find in my carry-on bag on the plane.I'd recommend these to anyone."
153161,2,Definitely A Good Read,"I enjoyed this book. Though the secret throughout the book is not an uncommon occurrence, I was shocked when it was revealed. The ending was a little bit too cut and dry, but that's why there are sequels. This book is worth your money and your time."
153193,2,Awesome value,"For the price, these can't be beat. They are fairly comfortable, although after about an hour my ears got a little sweaty. The sound is great, and they cancel the noise of the bus I ride adequately to allow me to actually hear the radio. The earbuds are cheap and pretty much a throw away. They are ackward and less value than the buds that came with my mp3 player.The sound is quite good on the headphones with decent bass. If you are looking for a usable, and inexpensive set of headphones this is it."
153262,2,Tension has never been this fun,"Mitch McDeere is your average mid-western farm country kind of guy, except that he's about to graduate third in his class from Harvard law school. He lives in a small apartment, drives a broken down car, and celebrates special occasions with Chinese food. He wants to make it big. He has no idea how big it's going to be... Grisham's story of a promising young lawyer recruited by a law firm that fronts for the Mafia is one of the fastest-paced, most suspenseful books to come along in a long time. What Grisham lacks in character development he makes up for in tense confrontations and deception on all sides as Mitch is surrounded by his partners, the FBI, and Mafia killers. The FBI wants his testimony, and the Mafia wants his head. Grisham grabs the reader on page one and doesn't let go until the last word. Anyone looking for non-stop excitement and surprises should look no further."
153263,2,"Great author, Great book, minimal flaws.","Indeed a thrill ride. Unfortunately, I wished more charecters developed and the ending leaves something to be desired"
153340,2,Superb Fiction on a Vivid Historical Backdrop,"Boyle evokes the mystery and hardship of Mungo Park's voyages to West Africa, while telling the tale of a London street-child who goes with him. Sad, funny, sweet and shocking, this book left me exhausted by its emotional intensity. Boyle is delightful to read (Try Budding Prospects and The Road to Wellville, too."
153356,2,bandits,a very funny movie. billy bob thornton steals the show with his hypochondriac self. bruce willis is the crazy one but he does good. a very good team. cant wait until this title is released on dvd.
153357,2,Bandits ok movie,This movie is for comdey loves. I don't reccomend going to see this movie for action. The plot of the movie is these bank robbers rob banks in the morning. By take the bank manger the night before and take him to the bank before the bank opens.
153412,2,No more burned food!,"Being such a bad cook, I almost always burn my food at least a little, but with this deep Lodge Combo Cooker that is no more the case. I just set the electric range to a little above the lowest, and the whole cooker gets hot and cooks everything to perfection. No more hot spots in the center, everything is equally warm!I than serve the food, and just rinse the pot and cover with warm water, dry it with a paper towel and oil it right away, it always looks like new this way, maybe better.I do not like for Amazon to charge sales tax, this product came from out of state! I do not have to pay tax to another state.In the future I will look for other stores first, I used to trust Amazon.com, but ???I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT OF THE BEST QUALITY!Rudolf.Lodge LCC3 Logic Pre-Seasoned Combo Cooker"
153442,2,Good music,I really liked Chris on American Idol and knew the CD would be great. He has a terrific voice and the CD is great. It hasn't left my CD player in weeks.
153455,2,Excellent existential noir,"I started reading this on the beach one Saturday afternoon. Good thing my kids know how to swim, because within an hour I wasn't looking up from the book.The originality of this detective novel shines around it like blue sometimes does PI Jimmy Miles, one of the undead who still has unfinished business to take care of on earth, although neither he nor his fellow ""Sailors"" know exactly what their unfinished business entails, nor precisely the rules of their unnatural existence. This existential angst, amplified by the prose style, adds noir on top of noir. And the LA setting is both literally and metaphorically perfect for Jimmy Miles's cruising in search of multiple answers, both internal to himself, and external to the decades-old murders he is asked to solve. The fact that no pat answers, even to the ""who"" of the who-dun-it part, are arrived at is part of this remarkable novel's appeal."
153587,2,Overall Good Book.,"Tales from Mos Eisley Cantina is a great book for any Star Wars fanatic, like myself. The stories were detailed enough so you got a good visual picture, but not so much as to make a novel. One or two stories were a little hard to understand such as the one on the pipe smoker. I really like the fact that this adds more of a personal touch to the broad expanse of the Star Wars universe. Anyone interested in knowing more about the stories between ""The Story"" this would be a good book for you. May the Force be with you in all your Star Wars readings. *Feel free to drop me a line about anything!"
153622,2,Cute family movie,"I thought this was a pretty cute family movie. The acting was good, and the little boy was adorable. Worth the price of rental."
153649,2,An amazingly observant writer,"This book is an exploration of so many themes of modern life: Alienation, even from one's own identity, the loss of idealism, the rise of consumerism and what it means to fight back against society's norms. Spiotta's observations are eloquent, poignant and dead accurate.In a roundabout way, this book is of a piece with Mary Gaitskill's newest book, ""Veronica"", only without Gaitskill's icy misanthropy."
153687,2,Good Movie,I had been looking for this movie for some time and found it on amazon at a really low price. It now is in my collection and I am sure to be watching it many times over.
153714,2,Great Classic Movie,"Sean Penn saying ""Hey, dude"" is enough reason to watch this gem. I'm currently reading the Fast Times at Ridgemont High book and the movie is soooo close! It's fun to see Nic Cage, Judge Reinhold (after Stripes), Jennifer Jason Leigh, Eric Stoltz, Forest Whitaker and more before they became famous. Yes, it touches on sensitive subjects, but overall, it isn't smutty or dirty as others such as Porky's and such have mastered. It's touching and you root for everyone, even Damone.Take a couple hours off and remember or find out what the late '70s/early '80s really were like!"
153809,2,awkward case,I loved the game.I first saw this game on the dragons lair delux pack and found it very interesting and fun .I hoped for a regular dvd style case but what I got was difficult and clumsy case.it was hard to remove the disk and afraid I might scratch it
153843,2,Lots of good information by well respected authors in the field of AD/HD,"Started doing research to stay informed about AD/HD as my son was diagnosed with ADD and I have recently come to realize, as an adult, that I have it too.The book covers a lot of ground. It's pretty up-to-date on research and treatments. I've come to realize, because of this book, that there is so much more to the treatment of AD/HD than simply getting a prescription for one of the multitude of drugs that are offered. It's about support, meds (or no meds), diet, family, organization...etc.Because of this book, my family has opted to try qEEG brain-mapping and EEG Neurofeedback. Cutting-edge stuff!This book is an excellent choice for those looking for direction for themselves or for those they love as they start their journey away from distraction."
153851,2,Auto Digital Multimeter,"I received my Digital Multimeter fast and in perfect condition. I am very pleased with the Equus 3340 meter. It is very easy to use and shows the problem code, plus the a brief explanation of the problem, you can also connect it to your home computer. I have been able to make repairs myself on my 2004 Sebring, and also on my stepson's Ford Astro Van using this meter. I also found out what the traction problem was on my wife's 2001 Caddy, before taking it to a repair shop to get it fixed.I highly recommend this multimeter, it is the best I have found and at Amazon's price, you can't beat it. I priced one close to same model at a local Pawn shop for twice the price I paid for this one at Amazon.com"
153871,2,Super cute,"My grandkids just love this one. They have to watch it over and over.The 2 year old laughs, claps her hands and is totally engaged. The 4 year old sings along with animation. This video is truly fun and educational.I highly recommend this for all preschooler."
153884,2,Where is the CD????,"I had this album when it came out and I think it is one her best. I originally bought it for ""The Morning After"" and ""We May Never Love Like This Again"" her own Oscar winning performances, but found that her renditions of the other Oscar winners were just as great, making the album brilliant. I was only sad that ""Nice To Be Around"" from the film ""Cinderella Liberty"" wasn't included, but then it didn't win the Oscar that year, which was a shame as it is another brilliant and flawless performance by Ms. McGovern. Now my biggest frustration is that this album hasn't seen a CD release, which is rediculous when so much crap is out there. Hopefully one day."
153955,2,Great action film,I missed Matt Damon but Jeremy Renner was a good choice for Bourne's successor. I was rivited until the end.
154050,2,Good album,First off this album can not touch any beatles album. lennon and Mcartney are in their own universe no one not even Brian Wilson ( and he was great ) comes close. Yes Sgt Pepper was influenced by Pet sounds and it was Pauls favroite CD; but it just doesn't even compare Revoler was and is a better written cd and peper is more expermental. This is an awsomw cd and a must have for anyone but don't thry and dis the beatles with this. Lets keep the beach boy were they should be.
154060,2,An incredible book of sefl discovery.,"This sequel to The Way of the Peaceful Warrior transports the reader to the moments of Dan Millman's self discovery...acknowledging his inner spirit. Highly recommended for all those beginning their own journey down the path of the Peaceful Warrior. Many questions left unanswered in the first book are revealed to the reader in this account of Millman's quest for 'the' answer, and in the end....you'll just have to read the book!"
154066,2,I laughed till I cried!! A great tribute to Harry Carey.,"I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. If you're looking for a biography of Harry Carey, this isn't it. A cornicopia of wonderfully funny antedotes about Harry Carey. Stonie and Barry Rosner did a great job. This is must for any Cub fan and any fan of Harry Carey."
154124,2,"Beautiful, Practical and Intelligent","Eckhart Tolle, the author of the international bestseller, ""Power of Now,"" highlights his essential teachings and then skillfully offers effective meditations and practices, so that the reader may directly realize the true power of living in the present moment. These exercises encourage a revolutionary shift beyond the mind-made self and its waiting, worrying and fear, so that we may get out of our minds and into the heart. When we are willing to step out of time into the refuge of our timelessness, we live in harmony and peace.Katie Davis, Author, ""Awake Joy"""
154140,2,Replacement for Inspiron 9100,"Purchased this to replace my Brick that no longer would charge the Battery in my Dell Inspiron 9100.Noticed the power supply is a Brand X (no name),& is not made by Dell. But then again, Dell buys things in Bulk & just slaps there Logo on it.Tested it for 2 days, & its working fine.Seems to have the chip that communicates with my Battery & the Laptop does not scream that its not a recognized Power Adapter.Dont know how long this thing will last, but for not, its working.Note that the Mickey Mouse power cord is about a foot shorter than the original, but I was able to use my original MM Cord. So its not so bad.If it explodes/dies/hums/bursts into flames, I will note it here in the future."
154152,2,Perfect Fit!,"I order a size 10 for an 11 yr old boy. They fit perfectly, right length, and had reinforced knees. What more can I say - they were perfect and arrived on time. Thank you!"
154159,2,old standby,I wanted a bedside phone with a lighted caller ID hard to find.with alarm and raido has everythink I was lookin for.
154224,2,"Stop, challenge your thoughts and choose the best response!","One of the most important and compelling books I have ever read. You will learn a lot about yourself by taking this work as a study course. And, as you move through the pages, you will become excited again about doing something to improve your current situation, no matter where you find yourself. I strongly recomend this book to anybody who is dissatisfied with where they are in life. It could provide a launching pad for a new career or just a new way of approaching things that life brings about. Thanks Larry and Hersch for a new outlook. Now the ball is in my court."
154236,2,wonderfully magic book filled with recipes of love.,"This book is amazing, it took my breath away to see a writer that is so passionate about food and love, has an amazing talent to blend these two together and make a truely signifgant testimony of love between two people that were denied the feelings they felt. Absolutely fell in love with every word published in Spanish and English...."
154401,2,Very impressive!,I'm very very impressed. It recharges very fast. My mom bought this for me and my sister so we can charge it more instead of using batteries and replacing them. Buy it. I'm going to show this at the news.
154456,2,Excelente e interesante,"Muy pero muy interesante lo acabo de leer, y me encanto es realmente bueno te ensena mucho al menos a mi me ayudo muchas de las citas que se encuentran en este libro como no conformarse, si deseas algo luchar por ello, la importancia de la parte espiritual de cada persona que a pesar de las dificultades que puedas estar pasando siempre puedes tener esa paz que necesitas y de como a veces las personas con las que te encuentras en este camino de la vida pueden hacer una gran diferencia en tu vida, te hace pensar y meditar de lo que realmente vale y hace que aprecies mas la naturaleza , lo existente y lo que tienes. Creo que lo volveria a leer muchas veces mas."
154596,2,Retro Swing,"I liked a number of the listings especially #18, but a few were pedestrian. Worth buying for the good ones."
154632,2,Body Minder Workout and Exercise Journal,"This journal is fabulous, it has a section for all days for exercise and diet. Very awesome journal, however after 13 weeks you have to get another. Good price for it and works great!"
154635,2,No wonder the Germans were hard to beat!,Read this book and feel like an eye-witness to a methodical German approach to a military operation... from beginning to end!! No wonder they were hard to beat!Mr. Lepre has certainly done his homework...Stanley P. Frankoski

154769,2,Love it!,Have been using this product for my two year old ever since I came across it in Amazon. It is easy to use.
154789,2,Deathlands vs. Ninjas and Samurai's!,"This one was a fun and good read with the usual action and adventure, but Mr. Axler could have taken this to a much higher level in terms of storyline for this one.The other novels that hinted at these warriors following in their mat-trans footsteps were all leading us to this one, and it fell somewhat short.There was an opening here to make a truly great story but fell a little short.But still worth the read in terms of action/adventure genre."
154844,2,OK,"Great product. Strong. Must use labels, however, as the surface is slick. Must mark own handling warnings also, as product is also blank."
154861,2,A great pocket computer for a great price,"I looked at the Palms and the Handsprings but was unsure if I wanted to spend so much on something I wasn't totally sure I'd use. I happened to see the Casio at the store, asked about the return policy in case I hated it or it didn't work with my computer, was assured I could return it if needed, and decided to take the plunge. I got it home and within a few hours I was hooked. I'm not sure how I ever lived without this thing! I've already stored tons of schedules and address book info, and 4 or 5 excel worksheets and I've barely touched the memory capacity. The only problem I've run into is finding a nice case that fits comfortably, but that will be resolved eventually. I definitely recommend this handy little gadget!"
154867,2,A most unusual TV series companion book,"Completely dispensing with the usual behind-the-scenes profiles and interviews that fill book companions to popular TV shows, this one stays completely in character as an amalgam of what might have been bits of scrapbooks from the characters in the show. Well worth getting now at the bargain price for those who came in late, but please watch the first three seasons first, or you'll have some events spoiled for you."
154931,2,Break free from the rigged election system!,"This book concisely depicts the necessity of all the citizens in this county to fulfill their civic duties. The book consists of letters written by two people who are concerned with the state of this country and their disappointment with the electoral system that has been hijacked by the two-party duopoly. Ralph Nader eloquently responds to the letters with words of hope and encouragement to not be easily defeated by the two corporate parties. He cites numerous cases of how it only takes a few concerned citizens to revolutionize the social and political structure of this country. He stresses the fact that 90% of one's civic duties is merely showing up to the polls which over a half of the population of this country fail to do. Again this book is very concise, but I recommend this for anyone who wants to break free from the political sedation that the two-party duopoly has injected throughout this county. It can be done and it only takes a few of you!"
154937,2,MENNA,"This book takes you on a journey through the struggles, terrors, and triumphs that Meena and RAWA have gone through. In just under 300 pages you are given an amazing prospective of Meena's life, courage, and beliefs. I truly believe this book could be a key point in demolishing ignorant wide spread opinions about the innocent people, especially women, in the Middle East in our countries time of crisis."
154941,2,Wonderful results,"After doing this video two times a week for a month, I saw results in overall tone and lengthening of the muscle. Balance ball excercises are challeging but gives you something to shoot for!"
155038,2,"Warm and comfortable, but a little difficult to adjust to size.","These earmuffs are toasty warm, and also comfortably lightweight, due to the use of thinsulate material. They are a little difficult to unfold and adjust to size, since they snap back to their folded configuration, but one you get them on, they are comfy and warm. I am going to order another in grey."
155039,2,Ear Muffs,I have been looking to replace an old pair of ear muffs for years and have been unable to find them at any retail stores. I have tried the new styles that are in the stores now and they aren't as comfortable or easy to store in your purse. I could tell from the description that they were the same as the old pair. They arrived quickly in the mail.
155047,2,a real feeling for the essence of ZEN.,"Loved it. As a student of Zen I felt as if i'd been on on 7 day retreat after watching. If the subtitles had been in yellow, it'd been a 10 day one for sure,"
155053,2,A history of greed,"The book explains what happens when faceless corporations take care of the food business. The independent producers are forced out of business, the nature is manipulated and workers are exploited.The worst aspect is that the children are one of the main target of these companies that craft their ads and products to appear attractive to youngsters.They package all their junk full of fats, chemical and unhealthy products together with little colored gadgets of famous animation characters. This makes wonders in luring the toddlers ( and their parents ).The book does a good job in describing these disgusting strategies.One section that I found very interesting was the one dedicate to flavors, complex chemicals that give actual taste to the food. They are formulated with hundreds of different compounds mixed in the right proportions to trick our mouth.Do you have an idea of what lies behind the common "" strawberry aroma "" ? Prepare yourself to be shocked."
155099,2,This little guy is so cute,"This plush is so small, cute and fluffy. His legs are perfect, he stands up so straight on all surfaces. His fur is so soft to the touch and a nice color too. This toy is good for the price. He was just the right size where I didn't feel like I was overcharged. Overall, very satisfied."
155162,2,eye opener!,"this is a really interesting documentary on the goings on in the Sudan/ Darfur region of Africa. I was shocked at the atrocities which have been taking place over these recent years in Sudan and how the government knowingly covers up the killings of thousands of innocent civilians from it's own counrty. The film as a whole is interesting, informative, easy to follow and the story is only enhanced by the high quality photographic images used throughout. Watching the film gives you a plethora of emotions ranging from a sense of frustration and despair that you/ anyone are unable to make a difference, to hope and determination that we as individuals can act to save these people's lives if we stand up for what is right. This documentary is a must see and will definitely change your perspective of the world you live in!"
155181,2,"Wondeful fantasy, did I hear someone say ""anti-feminist?""","I was looking through these reviews, being enraged and agreeing by turns, and I saw a review that described it as ""anti-feminist"". Now, after all the propaganda about it's being ""too feminist"", this was a refreshing point of view, although incredibly opositional to mine. ""The Mists of Avalon"" ties for my favorite book with ""Gone With the Wind"", and I have read it 6 times, maybe more. I'm twelve years old, and people say I'm ""very mature""(I have read what the AP seniors in the highschool across the street from me have not read) so I wouldn't recommend this book for my age group, but for anyone who likes MZB, fantasy, Avalon, Camelot, King Arthur, Gwenyfar(let go of your little fantasies. I hated her.)Morgaine(Morgan leFay), Goddess worship, the Celtic religon, I could go on and on. READ IT< YOU NINCOOMPOOPS!"
155194,2,The Towering Inferno - DVD,Wow! The special effects were great. Powerful story and great stars. You really get wrapped up in this one.
155316,2,"so far, so good","Decent price - much better than anything local. Arrived as indicated.Batteries in several phones would no longer hold a charge. Replaced with the energizer battery. Phone works again as expected.Have not done testing to compare talk and standby times, but seem to be reasonable.Also cannot speak extensively to longevity, but after several weeks the battery seems to still be performing as expected."
155364,2,very pleased,"I am a resurgent knitter, having learned 20 years ago and recently picked it back up. I am delighted with this purchase. The craftsmanship is very good on these needles, the bamboo is smooth, and I have been happy with how they feel in the hand. I got the 17"" and 24"" circular sets and also the 7"" DP set. They are even better after they've been used, because the natural oils from your skin tent to make the wood even smoother, which helps the yarn glide a little better. Overall, very very pleased with such high quality and such low price."
155394,2,I love this book!,This book is very helpful. It saves a great deal of time by telling you where in the Bible you can find scriptures about virtually anything! Would recommend to EVERYONE!
155468,2,Christmas Spirit,This is a great Christmas CD. Los Strightjackets are true to clean instrumental rock.Tom Davis
155513,2,great pop collection by one of the best singles bands of the 60's,"'mony mony', 'hanky panky', 'i think we're alone now', these were all early great Tommy James hits included on this cd. Then cam 'crimson and clover', 'sweet cherry wine', 'crystal blue persuasion', 'gotta get back to you' and the odd but likeable 'ball of fire' are also included on this cd. Tommy James wrote great pop singles and delivered them like he was delivering a great song. This is what probably made Tommy James a great pop songwriter, he wasn't too ambitious and seemed happy with creating great singles. So if you want all of these singles on one cd remastered, this cd is for you. Pleasant music for listening to while driving."
155516,2,REO = Stay power,"This is the best dvd REO Speedwagon has come out with and the best live concert dvd I have ever seen. It's in HD. It has 5.1 surround. REO is entertaining and energetic through the entire set. Where is the hall-of-fame nod for this band? C'mon. This band is real big into charity whether it's participating in an event or creating their own fundraiser to benefit others. Great group of people surround the REO camp. Give back to REO. Buy this dvd - then buy their latest cd ""Find Your Own Way Home"". Or, go see a live show."
155620,2,"Less Bongos, more Melodies","Although the drummer has removed himself from the bongos, they are still present in some songs and the drums are essential to all songs they are in. The melodic style that has characterized Guster for so long continues, with soft and smooth songs that boil over into hot and agressive jams. This CD is a real work that exemplifies why they have been around for so long: They have musical skills that rival anyone out there. It's a shame that they aren't a blink 182 rip off, or sound like linkin park or else they would get played on the radio more. Sarcasm aside, they sound like no top 40 group because they have their own sound and it is hard to dismiss. I do think it's different from their earlier work, but I don't think that's a bad thing, you still find yourself singing along and nodding your head. They are layered and deep, you just can't listen on the surface and expect to get anything from that."
155623,2,Best CD I've ever bought,"Keep it Together is without a doubt, the best CD I have ever bought. From the first song to the last I am mesmerized by their sweet melodies. If you are looking for a CD to bring yourself into a state of complete relaxation Keep it Together is the CD for you!"
155700,2,Worth every penny and then some,"I purchased this for squirrel hunting -- figured it didn't cost very much and reviews were good.Let me tell you -- THIS IS AMAZING!Went out squirrel hunting on a cold day. Was able to roll this up so it didn't take up hardly any room in my backpack.Got to my spot, pulled this out, opened the valve to inflate and it was ready. Put it down and then sat for 90 minutes not once getting cold and actually very comfortable.I'd recommend this in a heartbeat to every hunter, or even for hard stadium seating. When you need it it's there, and when you don't it is extremely light and takes up very little room."
155735,2,Works great. Wrong picture.,"The picturee Amazon has is wrong, the actual unit is smaller and has lights on the front not a LCD display. Google the name and you will see what it looks like.The unit works great and I did notice an imporvement in audio/video quality. I would prefer the lights on the front to not be so bright, but that is the only thing I would change."
155867,2,"I Tried Boost, and Now I Use it Almost Every Day","I decided to try boost, as a supplement, and instead of taking adult vitamins. I have tried the vanilla and it is pretty good, but I prefer the chocolate. The only reason I don't give it five stars is because the texture is a little thick for me. I always add a little milk to it. It fills me up for breakfast, and keeps me from eating junk food all day.Pros:Vitamin PackedStorage on the shelf for at least a yearFillingTastes goodCons:Little thickWatch out for some of the vitamin content if you are taking certain medicationsI also do subscribe and save on Amazon, it is a lot cheaper, and I have it when I need it. Great product for food storage."
155880,2,great movie,My 7 year old granddaughter loved this movie a lot. Would highly recommend this movie for others to buy for their family night.
155916,2,I Want One of These!,"I don't even own this lens but I can't wait until I do. Usually photo submitters blame Amazon's website when a photo doesn't look crisp and sharp; not a boo-hoo here about how the photo looked better until Amazon compressed it. This is my first lens review although I've reviewed, for months, the photos taken with many, many Canon lenses on Amazon's site. I can truly say this is the best lens yet. With the exception of a couple of user errors, the photos are just like they are supposed to be - beautifully contrasted and color saturated, crisp, sharp and brilliant. This lens is amazing - the rest will be up to you."
155958,2,FABULOUS! A MUST-SEE FOR CARTOON FANS!,"This is a wonderful movie and a definate must-see for cartoon fans. Cute, but in a much more adult way than Roger Rabbit, Cool World is an odd but appealing and fun look into the separate worlds of humans and cartoons."
155984,2,Sleepless in Savannah,"This was a page turner, couldn't put the book down once I started it. It was fun to read & funny in parts. Sharing with friends and also a new author for me. Great author, can't wait for more."
156048,2,For Love of the Game,"This movie is a combination of Baseball and a love story that rings true. I do not like schmaltz at all, but Costner and Kelly Preston have a true connection. The story is very much filmed within the modern moral code, yet the eventual reality of ""you don't know what you have 'til you lose it"" is beautifully portrayed by both actors. The baseball segments are exceptionally well done. Costner is beyond realistic as a major league pitcher. A very underrated movie, maybe evidenced by its extensive play on pay networks now, 7 years after it's theater run.The sountrack doesn't hurt either."
156090,2,Good story!,"I really enjoyed this book. The characters were believable, and I wasn't able to guess the ending! I'm looking forward to the next book."
156112,2,Awesome 2nd album!,"Forget Cassettes' music is all about contrast - soft vs. loud, slow vs. fast, tension and release. This is dynamic music, intense & energetic. The change from a duo to trio has added some sonic depth both from bass guitar and strategic backing vocals. The songwriting is complex and interesting, both musically and lyrically. This is not simple 2 or 3 chord progressions with hook and refrain; this is progressive music, full of tempo changes. The vocals at times are soft and almost timid-sounding, counterpointed by agressive, crunching guitar; then again, the guitar is subdued in other places, with Rhodes keyboard adding an atmospheric touch. The vocal on ""Patience, Beth Reprise"" is full of emotion. The drumming is solid, powerful, and varied.All around, if you like indie label, alternative & progressive rock with a live, minimally-produced sound, I highly recommend Salt!"
156149,2,Wow!,"This is a fantastic book.For man also.Waris gave so many feelings,humour inside that you can not take this book out of hand."
156204,2,Solid Nick Carter suspense adventure,"Returning once again the the Carter saga, I found this one pretty detailed in plot and action flow. Nice work up on the local color, interesting characters and bad guys worthy of destruction by Axeman Carter.Too bad the authors are so attached to their Axe agent using an underpowered 9mm Luger - it might be a holdover from WWII but they are not reliable and do not fire a knockdown cartridge. One minor drawback to a pretty entertaining series. Lots of willing babes dropping their garments and a good plot to hold the readers attention for a couple of hours."
156221,2,For kids,"I've ditched all the plastic tableware for esthetic and health reasons. I like that the kids each get their own color coordinated dish sets, they're tough, dishwasher safe, microwave safe, and made in the USA. These cups are small enough for the youngest (2yr) to even handle well. He even dropped it once already onto the counter from about 1.5ft and it's survived fine. They don't stack into each other unfortunately, but oh well."
156265,2,A Fascinating Read,"This is a surprisingly quick read considering how much information is in this book. Fr Amorth discusses multiple cases and reveals the many different types of evil activity that the exorcist may encounter, and how to deal with each. I found myself wishing for a lot more detail and a list of reference books. What will strike the average reader most is that all the grimness you expect in exorcism accounts, such as The Exorcist film or Malachi Martin's work, Hostage to the Devil, is largely absent. He presents the reality that the power of Jesus Christ is more than sufficient to overcome diabolic activity and protect the exorcist as well. I recommend the book wholeheartedly!"
156326,2,very good book,"This is by far the best book i have read. i read it once in sixth grade and then again in when i was a freshman. Enders Game is a very intriguing sci-fi which can cause a loss of real world time, and i recommend it to everyone who is mature enough to handle the sum what obscure language( things like the word fart eater)and the exciting story line."
156340,2,Pricey!,This makes the ultimate gift! It is super fast an easy to put together and looks great. It also was shipped very fast. It is really pricey though!
156501,2,item was great but shipping was BAD..................,I would never again order from this site again not only did it take forever for the package to come but the box came really damaged that i didnt want to even give it to the person i brought it for as a gift.....................thank you for nothing
156526,2,A good collection projects for a beginner to intermediate wood worker.,My wife gave me this book as a surprise gift. I generally agree with most of the other reviews concerning the scope and complexity of the projects in this book. There are a lot of projects and not too many are difficult for an advanced beginner. Most of the projects can be completed with only hand tools. Several projects do require a lathe.I really would like to give this book 4.5 stars... :)
156548,2,Great Headphones,"These headphones are wonderful. They are capable of getting quite loud, which is undeniably necessary. Another pro is the bass; they produce a ton of bass, another absolutely necessary feature. The fit, furthermore, is great. Finally, the cord is fabric like, another wonderful thing.There are two cons that make me remove a star. One is that the cord is far too long. It gets tangled very easliy, so beware. The other problem is that the spring mechanism breaks (or so I've heard).I've noticed that some people have a problem with fitting them. Here's how I get them to fit snugly.-Open the part that goes behind your ear up completely-Put as much of it behind your ear as possible-Spin the speaker part back to its normal positionIf this is of no assistance, I'm sorry. I have ears that stick out like the wings of a jet :). It may just be me who can get them to fit like that."
156556,2,Great collection,"I have read a substantial amount of short story anthologies, and this was definitely one of my favorites, ranking up there with Kevin Wilson's ""Tunneling to the Center of the Earth."""
156644,2,Dare to be Different,"All I can say is that I love the cd. There are very few albums that I can listen to from beginning to end. This is one of them. Kanye's lyrics are actually talking about 'something'. Not just a bunch of booty shaking and profanity. Don't get me wrong, I'll jam a Ying Yang Twinz booty song in a minute, but I also like to hear songs that have substance and thats what I found on this album. It was different from all the other same songs you hear on the radio. This is a definite 'must-have'! Its worth the $$."
156692,2,Continuing the story,I love the worlds and the plots. She continues to intrigue me with new questions and great books!
156734,2,Cute episode,"I'm not quite sure about the historical accuracy of this episode, but it is a cute one nonetheless, and the Tiger Talisman makes a comeback as Jackie is split up once again into Jackie-Lite and Jackie-Dark. The troll is an amusing villain with a fun way of talking. Two thumbs up for this episode."
156761,2,Excellent DVD,This was an excellent in-depth look at the Hajj or pilgrimage made by thousand of Muslims every year from around the world. This National Geographic DVD covers all the basics and alot more. I would reccommend this for Muslims and Non-Muslims alike
156767,2,Good but not necassarry single,This has 3 songs on it:1)The First Cut is the Deepest.-on the Sheryl Crow Best of Album.Great Song But if you have that album...2)Everyday is a Winding Road.-This is on Numerous singles I have.Great Song also if your a rabid Sheryl fan and need to snatch it up it's on a couple of albums she has made.3)My Favorite Mistake-This is also a live version done in NewYork that is on acouple of albums.Overall if you are a die hard Sheryl Crow fan and like getting stuff that she has done this is the album to get it was made in England and there is a Country picture of her on the front that is pretty good. The Songs go pretty well together and the First Cut is the Deepest Remix makes it a good buy.
156781,2,ITS AWESOME!,"Hey! 1st of all, if your reading this, you must like Nelly some-what...... and so I would recomend this CD to YOU! its soooo awesome, i WOULD buy his CD thats not clean, but then i wouldn't be able to listen to it around my parents (so that means almost never) and this CD you can, cuz all of the swearing is blocked out! i think its soooo awesome (repeat) Please buy this CD so Nelly will make MORE CLEAN CD's!!! you can listen to it around your parents!!! I rated it 4 out of 5 stars becuz #9 on this CD is nasty and he should not have done it, but other than that the CD is ""AWESOME!"""
156806,2,"Great value, good price!",Very reasonable cost. The navigation is a bit difficult at first. But overall its a great buy!
156872,2,Sweet Coconut Flavored Tea,This tea has a nice light coconut flavor. It's hard to find in the stores where I live so purchaing it at Amazon makes sense.
156958,2,Canon EOS,"I love this camera! Typically, I go for the ultra-simple-to-use types of cameras that allow the user to point and shoot. This camera offers so much more versatility. The user can select either the point and shoot option with autofocus or, with a little more practice, he/she can select the manual option for more creative shots. In addition, there are several different lenses available for the camera. Before making my purchase, I was torn between a high quality point and shoot, a digital camera and the Canon. While the Canon is a bit larger/bulkier than the others I was considering, it is very lightweight and easy to carry. Bottom line -- I am thrilled with my decision and recommend it to others."
156996,2,Great to see some fun for Kilmer,"This was one of the first Val Kilmer films I have seen, and in my opinion, a diamond in the rough. It was surprising to see Kilmer not taking himself so seriously as he does in films now. At times it gets a little ""high-horse"" for it's own good (especially in the last 20 minutes), but the rest of the film is both fun and elightening. Nerds of the world unite!"
157001,2,Almost the perfect compilation that shortens their career.,"For those who have something of them and want to explore more of the melancholic landscapes they build with their pop it's the perfect CD to get lost in the forest of SAD LOVERS & GIANTS.For those who don't know anything about them and enjoy the deep atmospheres created by The Chameleons,The Sound or even The Cure, it's the perfect CD to start with."
157015,2,I wish i could give a 4.5,"after having listened to this release it is easy to hear the many popular bands that the vaselines have influenced. A few of these songs are kinda dull, but that's okay because some of these songs are essental listening to any rock or pop music fan. The vaselines are no Pixies, but this cd is a great listen, that is an indisspensable album to the intelligent and open-minded rock fan."
157020,2,A must buy for all on the spiritual path and learning about laws of manifesting!,"I adore this book, I carry it with me as a guide and a reminder. Florence Scovel Shinn must have been one of the earliest writers on the subject about how the Universe works, and the power of our word on the life that we create. It is full of case stories of her clients, sample prayers and ""treatments"" and explains the power of attraction, Karma and Divine Law perfectly.My life has changed since reading this book."
157031,2,Assembly Required!,"I also bought this as a night table for a high bed. It's perfect. Overall I think that it is a really nice piece of furniture. Nice wood, came in great condition. The only drawback is that it requires major assembly which I did not realize when I purchased it. Like the other reviewer I also had trouble assembling a few of the pieces but was able to hide it, you can't tell!"
157047,2,Works great!,"This item is as advertised. Simple to use and clean. Durable plastic air pump. Rubber/plastic bottle stoppers can be taken apart and cleaned.When all the air is removed from the wine bottle, it makes a high-pitched ""ping"" sound so you know that the air is removed."
157068,2,Great introduction to what to expect when your parents age.,Terrific resource for baby boomers who will need to cope with the aging of their parent(s). The cassette is great for on-the-road listening; it only takes 1 1/2 hours of your time and will provide you with endless insights into a subject that may very well overtake your lifestyle. Priceless resource list
157103,2,"Tender, Sexy, Charming","The setting for this book, rural Ireland, is wonderful. Thedescriptions enable you to image the town, the people, thecountryside. Ms. Hendrix did a great job of portraying the warmth of the Irish people. The main charactes, Brian and Tara, are multifaceted. You feel the turmoil of Tara realizing that maybe Brian is not the greedy developer she wishes he was. Torn between writing the truth and misconceptions has Tara questioning her own emotional attraction to Brian. Brian as well must break down his misconceptions of all reports then Tara herself. Their romance is sensual, funny and warm. The townspeople are as captivating as Brian and Tara. My one peeve the proofreading (Brain instead of Brian). Overall, A GRAND BOOK. ENJOYABLE AND HEARTWARMING. END"
157190,2,pearl jam last kiss great,great job on this remake of the 60s it was my favorite when i was 8 and i love what you did to it now i can listen again in the 90s over and over again
157219,2,What more could you want?,"You got the perfect location,...girls, kick ... funny Jack Black, and some surf bums. Now what else could you possibly ask for in a movie? About a guy who takes the death of his friend way too seriously but in the end finds out what is really important. The whole time I was watching this I was just thinking in my head how jealous I was cuz I wanted to live like that. Anyone who likes a fun movie about having fun and learning how important your friends are, needs to see this."
157257,2,One of the greatest comedy movie series ever made,"The Naked Gun movies are some of the funniest movies ever made. Leslie Nielsen's comic ability is brilliant. Detective Frank Drebin bumbles his way through uncovering a plot to kill the Queen; pervert the US energy policy: and blow up the Academy Awards.Every scene has something funny in it, it may be subtle, but mostly it is crude yet hilarious. If you want a movie to make you laugh till you cry, then you have to get these."
157279,2,Ben Folds Five catches me again...,"I am a HUGE Ben Folds Five Fan....I bought this CD the day of its release....I have every single one of their releases, including REINHOLD MESSNER. Again, my fav band makes me laugh and cry on this fab CD...the only thing that's keeping it from getting 5 stars is the lack of angry ballads....crashing piano is the thing Ben Folds does best, but there's only two funny songs on here...but I love all the slow songs. ""Don't Change Your Plans"" makes me cry, and ""Mess"" is just amazing. I would heartily reccomend buying this CD whatever kind of music you live for. It's magic."
157334,2,I loved reading this book until the end.,"I fell in love with Mary McGarry Morris' writing. She wove a tapistry of words tieing together a town of sad souls, all of whom are crying out for our love and help. I was intrigued by and did my best to be patient, like Marie, for ""the soap"" to arrive, and for Duval to be ""found out"". But I was left with too many loose threads. After such a finely detailed picture of every nook, cranny and characteristic of every player and scene, why were we left to leap with only our own imaginations from the powerful life and death scene in the ocean to Duvals simple get away down the dusty road? Who paid for Alice's college tuition? Did Marie ever go to therapy? Would she really go back to Sam? Is there a sequel to this book? I was left hanging. Something I feared Alice would do long before she ever got to college! Whew!"
157342,2,The Asch Recordings Vol. 1 - 4 Woody Guthrie,...This collection is absolutly the best that I have found when it comes to Woody. I tell people about this collection and nobody knows Woody. When I mention songs they recollect those. The music is playing now for the second time. It is possible that from listening to my new addition that it may have persuaded me to write this review. I Love It !
157357,2,Great books save you precious time,"And this is one of them. There are classic books in every area. This book is the one for .NET. If you are an experienced developer and want to jump start with .NET, this is definitely the book for you. I love it! Thank you Jeff Prosise for your great work."
157358,2,A good standard Clamp,As with the entire quick grip products the features that should entice you to buy and use the Quick-Grip 524 Bar Clamps are the ease of adjustment and the fact that it won't mar even the softest of wood yet still provide ample force for your project. People with low hand strength or hand pain can use the trigger ratchet used for the adjustment with ease. It only requires a firm squeeze just over the pressure used for scissors.
157368,2,Kountry Klassic !,"It's so true , this record is a damn classic from way back in the day......before alt.country was a twinkle in it's Pappa's eye.I recently bought and loved all over again Green On Red's superb ""Here Come The Snakes"",(rereleased on CD with a great bonus disc,) and listening to that prompted me to go back and dig out the vinyl version of this gem (and it took a lotta diggin').What a bloody excellent record it is , pure Country gold baby!I love my old slab a plastic with all the hissing an scratches but i wish it would come out on CD again soon ,can't see me paying 80 bucks,sheet, i'd be cheaper converting the record to disc....."
157451,2,"THE ""A"" I NEVER GOT","SOME PEOPLE ARE NOT MATH GENIUSES, THIS WILL MAKE YOU ONE. SPEED UP THE JOB, LOOK LIKE A SCHOLAR, IMPRESS YOUR FRIENDS. THIS IS THE TOOL TO HAVE."
157566,2,Good ending,At least the end to this series dosn't disapoint. It's not what you exspect but it's good and leaves it in a good place
157570,2,A CLASSIC,"This is one of my favorite movies. The story of Hermie's love for Dorothy is tender,funny and finally, bittersweet. Jennifer O'Neill is wonderful as Dorothy and Gary Grimes is very good as Hermie. The movie is beautifully photographed and the music compliments the acting. A nice coming of age story."
157656,2,still good,"nas is still great and probobly the best living rapper out right now. this album is still hot but not as good as some of his other albums but still better then i am. cop itbest tracks: one mic, got yourself a gun, ether"
157666,2,Its A Nice looking watch,"once you were wear it,you will have people looking at it. They will ask you where did you get it and how much did you pay for it. To me the price is unbelievable. It came well packaged not scrached and in its own box. The only downfall to me was it was to lose. Nothing biggy, better to be lose than to be tight. I took my watch to a jewery place and ask to take a link off the wrist band. They don't charge much. Well hell, if you have a link remover tool you can do it yourself. This watch is a eye catcher you wont be sorry."
157679,2,Buy this mp3!,I really like this little thing alot. The sound is good and it so easy. i am not a tech wizard by any means and i could do it!!! The fm radio doesn't get alot of stations in my area but other than that i like it.
157729,2,TONY KUBEK ALSO HOMERS IN THIS BOOK,"THIS IS ABOUT THE RECORD BREAKING SEASON OF ROGER MARIS. TONY KUBEK DOES A GREAT JOB DESCRIBING WHAT TOOK PLACE DURING THAT EXCITING SEASON OF 1961. ALOT OF DETAIL IS DEDICATED TO THE HOMERUN CHASE BUT IT ALSO COVERS MARIS'S RELATIONSHIP WITH MANTLE, THE PRESS AND OTHER PLAYERS. THIS IS A MUST READ FOR ALL YANKEE AND BASEBALL FANS. VERY RECOMMENDED."
157775,2,Best Live Release,"This is one of the great live releases of any band in rock history. As often as I have heard Stairway to Heaven, this slightly rawer version is stunning and makes it a whole new listening experience - actually better than the classic studio version I think. Page smokes throughout the 2 discs. The only flaw is having 3 versions of Communication Breakdown on disk 1."
157815,2,Wonderful story,"This shows that a movie can be great without profanity, sexuality, or gore. A beautiful, positive story of being the best you can be. Peer pressure is something that can make you not like who you are when you're alone and the male lead in this discovers that he can live without the approval of the wrong crowd. And teaches them they can be better without doing wrong to impress someone else. The person you've always ridiculed and called names may be your best friend or the love of your life. A lesson to teens or adults who live to follow the crowd. Or just a great movie to relax with, with tissues handy of course."
157823,2,Just Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,If u already experienced it then this movie will forever be your #1 favourite. I cried the whole time during the movie. U just have to watch it.
157851,2,"Great Video, Annoying Commentary","I about 10 weeks pregnant with my second child and purchased this video and another to use throughout my pregnancy. I defintely got that sore feeling the next day, which was great, but almost poked my own eyes out while listening to how annoying summer sanders is throughout the session. I do recommend buying this video, but highly recommend keeping it on mute to save yourself the pain and torment that i went through.Happy pregnancies!"
157868,2,The Canadian Little Feat,"I discovered this album randomly way back in 1994. The staff was playing it over the PA system at a heli-skiing lodge deep in the British Columbia wilderness. If you like the Grateful Dead and Little Feat and their rootsy mix of rock and country with strains of folk and even a little reggae thrown in, you'll LOVE these songs. Unfortunately, the one other SSMB CD I bought is not nearly as good, but this one is a gem. Well worth the cost."
157955,2,leomoon,"this album is a journey through the minds of the artists - it explores several different kinds of music - its deep, and if you're a graphic artist like myself, this album is a MUST . Leomoon has found its permanent home in my iTunes."
158054,2,Great Little Machine,"Bought this for my Mum for Christmas and it is a great little machine.The sound quality is very clear and the volume perfect for a room in a house. She uses it in the kitchen and it fits the bill nicely. If you want a boombox for an auditorium the volume may not be enough but it's great in a house.The CD, Radio and Tape Player sound crisp, it is not too heavy, which is good for my Mum and its colour scheme looks really sharp.It would have been nice to have a built in mic or mic socket but there we go. jWin if you read this take note!All in all I highly recommend this machine."
158101,2,canon binoculars,They were for my wife for Xmas. She loves them they were everything she hoped for and more. We are looking forward to using them in CostaRice in a few montths. Will update then
158134,2,TAMIA IS YOUR BEST!!!!,"ALL THE TRACKS ARE GOODI PLAYED THIS ALBUM ALL THE TIMEIN 2001 I SILL LISTEN TO ITNOW AND IT'S STILL A GREATRELEASE I FEEL.MY HIGHLIGHT ARE:UHH....TO YOU,TELL ME WHO,CANT GO FOR THAT,GO,DEAR JOHN,STANGER IN MY HOUSE AND IF I WERE YOU.TAMIA IS A GREAT ARTIST GO OUT AND SUPPORT THIS ALBUM."
158160,2,best book ever read,"The first time I picked up this book was in a book store looking for a book report book. I was looking through the shevels of books and this one happened to catch my eye. I read the back and front of the book. I didn't no if I should use the book for my report. I read the first few pages and I was totally confused. I thought it would make an interesting book report book so, I paid for the book and started reading it at home. I am now half way done with the book and at times I can't help it, but to laugh out loud. This book is not like any other book. I bring the book to school and everyone wants to read it! There is no way how I could not have given this book less than 5 stars. I can't wait to finish the book!! :)"
158311,2,Another nice compilation from RPM records,"Here we have another extensive compilation from the folks at RPM of a band little known in the USA at the time of their success in the UK. Described in the notes as a UK version of the Beach Boys, that's not quite a fair comparison, as they are more aptly described as a tight harmony act than a surf band. Very nice version of ""She"" also done by Manfred Mann."
158341,2,Fantastic Summer Reading,"Having never read anything by Capote, I decided to remedy that fault this summer. I read Breakfast at Tiffany's after In Cold Blood, and I was equally impressed with both. Unfortunately, I saw the movie Breakfast at Tiffany's before I read the book. While I liked both, they were quite different, and I preferred Capote's version. Holly Golightly is much more likable when portrayed by Capote because she's a deeper character.Perhaps my favorite part of this book, however, was the short story ""A Christmas Memory"". Though some could consider it sappy, I loved the way Capote wrote it. He reveals so much about the characters and the setting in subtle ways. He has beautifully captured the way friendship affects people's lives, even if that friendship is cut short.This collection is well worth the short amount of time it will take to read it. You won't be disappointed!"
158366,2,Are we straights really that different from junkies?,"I couldn't put it down. I was amazed at the self-annihilatingdepths to which young people can sink. Welsh's exquisitewriting illuminated for me that the seemingly insanerationalizations the characters invoke, to themselves and toothers, are different from those used by the rest of usonly in degree."
158367,2,"Well, it's a barry book, likesay.","""Trainspotting"", first and best of Irvine Welsh's novels, tells a series of loosely linked stories about the gadges, radges, junkies and wide-os in Edinburgh.This book shows what Edinburgh is really like - forget all the purple heather, the bonnie lasses, kilts, bagpipes and killing the English - this is drinking, swedging, mainlining, shagging and doing over your mates.Written in a heavy Scots vernacular, the books blend of humour and horror provide an exhilerating experience."
158386,2,A great 80s CD,i am a huge fan of 80s pop and rock and i think that anyone who loves 80s music would love this.
158458,2,Aluminum Cookware,"This is one gorgeous pot. I grew up and learned to cook in aluminum and, no, I'm not afraid of getting Alzheimer's from it. Aluminum cooks food steadily, makes it harder to burn, cleans well by hand or dishwasher and is reliable and just about indestructible. This Cajun Dutch Oven is beautiful. The inside and outside shine and haven't dulled yet. The company got it to me faster than expected and in good shape. They even emailed me ahead to be sure I inspected it immediately and found it acceptable! Worth more than I paid for it. Gonna buy from these people again."
158460,2,Good Transfer & Plenty Of Extras,"It's nice to see a good widescreen transfer of this solid horror/sci-fi story from 20 years ago. It looks great! All that's left now would be a sharp Blu-Ray transfer.Solid production values include outstanding direction by Philip Kaufman, camera-work by Michael Chapman and acting by Donald Sutherland, Brooke Adams, Leonard Nimoy, Jeff Goldblum and Veronica Cartwright. Of the group, Sutherland had the most lines and was the most impressive.The movie clicked because it built up the suspense beautifully, and proved you don't need a lot of violence and gore to scare the viewer. In fact the scariest thing of the movie - and it WAS scary - might have been the eerie noises emanating from the ""re-born"" humans.The original film in 1956 is a good one but it's generally conceded this re-make is superior. The star of that first film, by the way - Kevin McCarthy, makes a cameo appearance in here. That was a nice touch."
158479,2,Meets my needs well,"I really like the large print, the thumb index, maps and life application. Had been using a small NLT Bible which worked fine, but wanted a bit more reading, historical references, and application. This does that. Only drawback would be its size. Not something I will lug back and forth to church but wonderful for home study and bible study."
158500,2,Functional and Durable,"Hamilton Beach CPM700 Commercial Stand Mixer, SilverI bought this mixer when I had a baking business making about 50 cakes plus many pounds of cookies a week. It is the 4th mixer I bought after I burned through 3 others. Most people don't need to have as large a bowl but if you do, I would recommend this one over the Kitchen Aid and definitely over the Viking I had. Most importantly it has an automatic shut off when the motor gets overheated, which the others do not. It doesn't offer a splatter shield, but it is the exact shape as the Viking so you can order one from that company and it will work fine. The warrantee is not as good as the Kitchen Aid which automatically sends you another within days, but it also is more durable if you are doing some heavy duty baking."
158568,2,"I laughed, I cried, I blew Coke out of my nose!!!","Absolutely one of the BEST books, I've ever read. Hillarious, bawdy, campy, yet wise- very wise, indeed!! I mean, here is a story about SELF-MADE women-- southern, independent women out there in the real world, living their lives on their terms, not what 'society' says is 'proper'. Jill cuts through all the facades and myths, and tells it like it is- basically telling us to get over ourselves, and live life to the fullest!! Jill and the Queens are all friends, and being a Wannabe is the highlight of my life!! Come on down, the parade is March 20th, we always need more wannabe's..."
158768,2,surely........one of the best metal album of the year.,"Frankly, i wish megadeth win the grammy. This new album called 'united abomination' is great.The first 5 track are fast, heavy but melodic too. Others track still good but the most interesting is the solo part on the end track called 'burnt ice' .....increase your volume before listen! The japan release come with bonus track 'Out On The Tiles', another great performance from the deth dealing with cover version. Surely...one of the best metal album of the year. If you have more money, get the japan release one. Enjoy the cd."
158785,2,God's cure for the Worship War,"What does the Bible say about Worship? This book will give you the principles you need to answer that question. The story weaved throughout keeps your attention and gives you practical applications for the 7 simple principles from which the book is centered. You won't be able to put down this life changing book! Both as a worship leader and as a layperson I have been benefited by this book's simplicity and truth. Knowing Dr. Wetmore, the author, confirms that his life is consistent with his words. We need more like this who are willing to expose the struggles of the Evangelical Church. Acknowledging that we have failed to bridge the worship gap will begin the healing process that we so desperately need in our broken or breaking churches. I recommend it to all!"
158795,2,My Personal Opinion On The Contender,I thought that this book was a great book for mature teen boys. Girls would probably not like this book because it mainly deals with problems that boys would encounter. Robert Lipsyte can really get the reader of ~The Contender~ fascinated in this novel. If you do not like gloomy books you probably would not want to read this because it has many depressing problems that would happen in the real world. Overall this book has a very deep plot which makes it one of my favorite books.-Salvie
158854,2,"Thought provoking, but better editing would have been nice!!","Thought provoking book- but some of the editing was pretty bad. :) I did enjoy the rad anyway, though- and it does make you think about possibilities that should be addressed in our own lives..."
158881,2,songs of my life /vince hill,Was pleased to be able to get this product . Had triedat a few diffreent book and music stores but was unsuccessful . Thank You
158956,2,Clearing up 50 years of misconceptions,"I really enjoyed this book, written from someone who knew Gardner personally. This book will tell you what really happened, when it happened, how it happened and why it happened, becoming what we call Wicca today. After practicing nearly 22 years (as of this review writing), I was pleased to find out the actual origins of the Wiccan religion we practice today. Be prepared to find out that not everything that you have been told about Gardner is true!"
158961,2,VillaWare 12-inch Electric Skillet Nonstick,"This VillaWare skillet is a ""must have"" for everyone. I love VillaWare products and have had a VillaWare Waffle Iron for over 15-years and it still looks good and cooks as it first did. I would definately give this Skillet to family and friends as a gift and I will be purchasing a second one for my kitchen. It cooks evenly and keeps foods warm until time to serve. Easy to clean and store. Love it !!"
159046,2,A good foundational Alef-bet tool,"This book is good in that it teaches consonants and vowel points simultaneously. Instead of teaching the letters alphabetically, it teaches them as they appear in several brachot, first the blessing over wine and then the blessing over candles. So, you're learning to read by reading written Hebrew. You're learning nikkudot at the same time you learn the alef bet, so you can pronounce anything in the siddur by the time you're finished. As a plus, it also instructs you on how to pronounce the Name when reading a prayer. We've been using this with a class of adults for several years and now even those who didn't have a Hebrew education as children can read from the siddur. This book is not meant to teach vocabulary or grammar."
159084,2,"Winning by Losing, A No Nonsense Guide",I liked the book Winning by Losing because it was very straight forward and down to earth. Ms.Michaels tells it like it is and assists the reader in their journey towards weight loss.
159134,2,A real treasure,"OPA!! Boy was I astonished to find this CD! My grandfather, who emmigrated from Greece in the 1910's, owned this record which was produced in the 1950s. I recently rediscoverd this album in the basement play it frequently. This was recorded when each part of the country still maintained regional influences, before the hemogenization of Greek popular musical styles. Great musical quality, authentic. A must have."
159149,2,"Good, but has some flaws","Sound quality-wise, I am happy with these earphones. Much better than the earphones that come with iPods and the bass is decent. However, the cord is just too long with the extension; so long that it gets in the way or gets tangled on something sometimes. But without the extension, the cord is too short. The only solution is to wrap the cord around the player (what I usually do) or coil it around the little plastic case it comes with (this looks hideous though, and the weight where the cord is wrapped tends to be bothersome). Secondly, the material of the cord seems rather soft. Too soft. Almost putty-like. I heard that Sony has improved the quality of the cords recently, but I'm not 100% sure of this."
159155,2,Great for movie lovers,"An entertaining book with interesting tidbits about lots of familiar character actors. True movie buffs will probably know a lot of the actors already, but still good fun."
159162,2,Fantastic and innovative! One of Goldsmith's all time BEST!,"""Planet of the Apes"" is one of filmdom's most chilling and original scores. The new CD sounds great (you can hear sounds and instruments that weren't audible on previous versions). The newer release also contains more pieces of music that weren't even on the version released several years ago. Included, too, is music from ""Escape from Planet of the Apes"" (also previously unreleased); it is great to hear how he took the themes from ""Planet"" and funked them out for ""Escape"". This is Jerry Goldsmith at his best. Other personal Goldsmith faves... THE OMEN, BASIC INSTINCT, PAPPILON."
159167,2,A Great Book,"This is a great book but I recommend reading the rest of the Foundation Series first as even though this takes place before it, it was written after and was meant to be read after you read the other books."
159192,2,A Good Start to a Must-have Series,"This is the first of the best Oldies compilation series I have ever seen. The sound is great, only the best sources were used, and the research in the liner notes reflects great dedication on the crew at Ace Records. Seems ironic that a U.K. company does the best job with U.S. music history. You are guaranteed to know at least half of the songs here, the rest will probably be a revelation. For related material, check out the ""Teenage Crush"" Series on this label, as well as ""Chartbusters Usa"", taking the music thru the 60s. A good buy, as are all the volumes."
159307,2,Tito loves children...I love this film!,"If you only see one foreign film in your life, make sure it is this one. Kusturica's humorous view of war in Serbia is truly a masterpiece. Watch it for the monkey, watch it for the gypsy band playing hanging upside down, watch it for the aptly placed flower arrangement, watch it for the gypsy band playing in a tree, watch for the gypsy band playing while running after at truck...(many Kudos to Goran Bregovic for the excellent score!)"
159310,2,excellent creations,"I never new you could make so many diffrent kind of develed eggs which are always a big spalas at any get together!! I actually made the ""green eggs & ham"" recipe to take to my group study with 15 other gals because I go by the name ""Sam""....soooo....Sam I am....I love green eggs and ham. They were wonderful. I added creme cheese to mind tho."
159315,2,pyramid PR2500 pre amp,"Can,t be beat for the price! Paired it up with a pyle #1000 power amp and radio shack 30 band equlizer. Sounds awsome!! Between the price and the free shipping I,m one happy Dude!!!"
159317,2,Awesome designs,"For those who want something fun to crochet for babies (without making the same old boring pastel stuff) - you have to check out this book...It's awesome! Candi's designs rock! It's my favorite and the most used book in my crochet library, and even as a beginner crocheter, I was able to make a number of items from her book without a problem!!! Totally fun and hip coats and sweaters, Ugg-style baby booties with a matching hat and jacket, crocheted dresses, even a kimono-styled dress and sweater set! Totally fun and worth every penny!"
159325,2,Practical advice that works!,"I implemented Dr. Peters' ""Smiley Face System"" just last week, and I've seen dramatic changes in my son's behavior already. This book has been a great help in my efforts to change the behavior of my three year-old. Both he and I are happier because of it."
159346,2,*INFECTIOUS BEATS & UPLIFTING SOCIAL IDEAS*,VERY COOL...Common takes you on a musically delightful ride through some jazzy hip hop streets in the ghetto...with political ideas & social consciousness. AND we cannot forget KANYE. He blessed this album!! A MUST HAVE! NO B.S.
159457,2,"Great story,""can't put it down until you're finished"" book","As a former Army officer and military journalist I have to admire the captivating story and explicit writing style Mr. Culbertson has authored.The events seem ""up close and personal""and the unique threading of tongue -in -cheek humor throughout the book make it a must read for anyone remotely interested in the Vietnam ""experience"" or the military at that time in American history.5 STARS!"
159548,2,SMALL BUT SUPER COLD,"This is only for people who need a ""little"" extra freezing space like singles or apartment renters. Does an excellent job but does not hold much food."
159589,2,The DVD is NTSC (not PAL).,"The DVD in this set is NTSC (not PAL) and plays fine in my standard North American DVD player. I haven't listened to any of the music yet, so I can't comment with regard to how this reissue sounds. I purchased this item from Amazon on December 8, 2010."
159661,2,Nailed it again!,"Douglas Preston nails it again! I can't get enough of these books. When I start them, I can't put them down. I don't have them all yet, but my collection is getting bigger. I'm almost done with 'The Codex', and then on to 'Dinosaurs In The Attic.' Keep up the great work!"
159673,2,really a nice product,yes like them --have bought extra and given as gifts--anyone can use them--and people seem to like them--a unique gift--
159712,2,Information overload,"This book tells the tale of the eruption of the volcano Krakatoa in 1883, with the resulting destruction and death of about 35,000 people. However, in addition to that story, the author has included page after page of info about the formation of the earth, the history of the East Indies, Dutch colonialism, geology, geography, plate tectonics, and a whole host of other, somewhat intersting, subjects. These additions really bog down the story, and at times tend to have the eyes glaze over while reading. As long as you can slog through the mundane parts, and read about the eruption, you will enjoy this book. If you like your nonfiction laced and larded with facts like an encyclopedia, you will also enjoy this book. Most of us fall somewhere in the middle."
159726,2,"""Viewer from Apalachicola"" is wrong, wrong, wrong!","I think the fact that there are TWO ""75th Anniversary"" compilations is confusing people. The other one, from Koch, I have not seen, but I have not seen a single positive word written about it.THIS collection, from VCI, is the real thing! Disc 1 features 9 cartoons from the Max Fleischer era, including the three famous long color features, and they've never looked better. Disc 2 features 25 cartoons from the Famous Studios era of the '50s, and while they can't hold a candle to the earlier Fleischers, they are still worthwhile. Add a commentary by historian Jerry Beck, and you have a package worth every penny of its reasonable price.I hope ""Apalachicola"" purchases THIS compilation and retracts his/her earlier review."
159828,2,Happy with purchase,"This book arrived very quickly. It has been gently used,but is in great shape and my son doesn't have to lug this text book home from school."
159857,2,proper use of lift,"you can use the lift in hall ways by colapsing the weels part way, it will not tip over as walls prevebt it. allso can be moved closer to wall by moving position of weels. take it all most allthe wat to cieling then move weels( thwy move in 2 dritcetions) and tighten to cieling. it willbot tip when tight to cieling."
159866,2,Excellent!,"Ms. Brown has done it again! Have read all Sandra Brown's books and ""Ricochet"" doesn't disappoint. Believable, flawed characters who you still want to route for. Plot keeps you guessing. Fast paced - no ""fillers"" in this book. Enjoyed her thorough descriptions of Savannah. No need to expand on story line - other reviewers have done so quite well."
159911,2,Haunting vocals with big sound.,"How three guys with three instruments make this much melody is beyond me. The sax is sexy, the drums perfectly reserved, and Mark Sandman's haunting vocals are enough to put you in another world. Who cares if it's temporary? Turn it up and escape for a while."
159917,2,great looking dvd,"Great story, fantastic looking dvd, what more could you want? My only gripe is with the language tracks. Where's the cantonese or english dub? The only tracks available are mandarin and french? FRENCH? Not even cantonese subtitles! You may have guessed I'm Chinese/Cantonese. The picture looks excellent with rich colours and no scratches and the sound is very good too."
159956,2,Music Makes or Breaks Movies,"Some movies that would be mediocre become classics or works of art because of the inspiration of great musicians. This movie is good, but what made it stand apart from many low budget Sci-Fi movies is the music. Some of the best edgy tunes you could put together. I like all types of music so when this movie came out I immediately bought the VHS and cassette. I'm sorry to see both the movie and soundtrack is hard to come by because they are both out of print. We can only hope they put it on DVD and re-release the CD soundtrack."
159981,2,The only Red Rice Yeast I'd take,"After doing a fair amount of research in looking for a good time released Red Rice Yeast, I came upon Herbal Actives. The only thing you have to look out for is the size of the tablets. They have two versions, one where you take 1 tablet a day, which is a rather large pill but if you have no problem taking pills, it goes down easy. They also have a smaller tablet version where you take 2 a day. So if you believe you're getting a better deal in the quantity of tablets, read what the size of the tablet is and you'll see they are basically the same price either way."
159990,2,"THE VERY BEST, DOUBLE COMPLETE ANTHOLOGY","IF YOURE LOOKING FOR A COMPLETE COMPILATION FROM THE JACKSONS THIS IS THE ONE YOURE LOOKING FOR, CD ONE CONTAINS THE HITS FROM THEIR MOTOWN YEARS INCLUDING SOME SOLO RECORDINGS BY MICHAEL, CD TWO THE EPIC YEARS, THE DISCO SONGS ""CAN YOU FEEL IT"" & ""SHAKE YOUR BODY (DOWN TO THE GROUND)"" WERE A LITTLE LONGER AND THIS CD CONTAINS THE RADIO EDITS OF THEM, SOUNDS GOOD. HIGHLY RECOMENDABLE."
160018,2,"A wonderful novel of love, time, & the vagaries of the heart","Reflections Of Toddsville is the story of Trudy Johnson, America's best selling historic romance writer who's personal love life consists of a bedside photography of a Victorian gentleman taken in 1991. On June 21, 1997 Trudy falls asleep in her Richfield Spring cabin only to awaken in the same bed one hundred years in the past -- with the man from her photography along side her! His name is Cuyler Carr, and hi's not happy about his fishing trip (or his reputation) being ruined by Trudy's unexpected arrival. Reflections Of Toddsville is a totally engaging and unique novel of love, time, and the vagaries of the human heart."
160105,2,Handy!!,"This works well, holds my rechargable drill (black-n-decker) so that it's always handy. It's a hassle putting it on a belt if you're only doing a quick job, but indespensible if you are on a ladder or somewhere else you need to put the drill down but need to have it handy!"
160209,2,Enjoyable Reading,"The flashbacks of the old lady were so interesting and made the reading more enjoyable.....don't like some of her other books, but this one was very enjoyable reading."
160252,2,The Perfect Cup of Joe,This is the perfect coffee machine as only one person drinks coffee in this household. We have a larger Braun 10-cup maker but couldn't get it to make an ideal brew for just one or two cups. Just ended up making six cups and tossing the left-overs. This machine was exactly what I was looking for and works exactly as I expect it to. Brews in just four minutes and keeps the java nice and hot (not boiling). This is a must have for single coffee drinkers.
160315,2,Stone: Great Setting: Good value for money,"Stones are white & clear, setting finish a little rough in the joints but for a basket setting, it is still a bargain. Comes in a navy ""velvet"" finish box. Would recommend item: Great value and hard to find in 14K white gold finish."
160345,2,genial,"A moins que je ne me trompe, Eric Johnson n'est pass? en France qu'une seule fois : en 1991, dans un restaurant sur les Champs Elysees a Paris. J'ai eu la chance d'etre present. Ce DVD est un remarquable rendu de cette periode magnifique de cet artiste. C'est tres bien filme et s'il fallait noter 20, je mettrais les 20 etoiles que ce DVD merite. Thank you, Mr. Johnson."
160363,2,Tarot Art Love,"I love the Fairy Tarot deck! The art takes one back to childhood - all the conversations with fairies and animals, etc. The size of the cards (4 3/4"" X 2 5/8"") make shuffling and handling of the deck easy. Learning the substitute symbols was fairly easy and the Major Arcana is beautiful. The small instruction booklet is rather vague on description and meaning of each card, so another source for meanings is recommended. If you can transport yourself and let your imagination take over, this deck will enchant and amuse you."
160420,2,The correct tool with which to smack things.,"I feel slightly foolish writing a hammer review, but the fact is it's a really well made hammer. The stacked leather handle feels great, it's well balanced and it has a ""presence"" when you hold it. I'm sure it thinks it's something grander than a hammer. I don't allow anyone to use the expression, ""he's/she's as dumb as a hammer"" anywhere that it might hear."
160512,2,I taught from this book,This is an excellent basic book on compilers. Its strength is its strong practical approach combined with using YACC/LEX technology. It hand holds you through the development of a simple compiler. If I wanted to learn about compilers I would read this first. Its weakness is it is too narrow. There are plenty of features of languages that are not addressed but in passing. Its goal is to get a compiler built. For a compilers 101 class there is no better book.
160529,2,No complaints,I bought this to cut some holes in a driveway to plant some small trees. It worked jsut fine for that.
160585,2,Fantastic Photo Art,This is one of the best photo books I have seen. It also has nice writing that emphasizes the various styles of Carson. It was also nice to spot some of the images used on The Fragile within.
160712,2,Great Amp!!!!,"I recently purchased this amp and i was amazed how it sounded.This amp has distation,reverb,bass,treble,and many more settings.This amp is great for jamming to AC/DC,Def leppard,and most other hard rock/ metal bands.This amp is also great fot jamming to soft rock and even country.It is also great for playing at gigs.I would strongly reccomend this amp to anybody who is looking to upgrade to a larger amp."
160735,2,"Excellent product, a snap to set up","I wanted to provide this review because all the ones I read before buying the router were several years old. This router is super easy to set up and it works great. When you use the CD and set up the router the software automatically searches for updates, and installs any that are needed, which is great. I have Vista on my laptop and worried that there might be one of those dreaded compatibility problems, but no problems at all!Also, my internet connection (wired) was fast before, but now it is SMOKIN'! I easily connected my two computers and now have my laptop free to roam the house and go out on the patio or in the yard and still be able to connect with the internet effectively.Works great! Easy to set up! What's not to like?"
160768,2,A Jedi Review,"This game is as great as the Force! You can meet legendary characters like Luke Skywalker. Travel from planets such as Yavin to Bespin. Rip through flesh(literally) with disruptor rifle, blow away enemeys with missile lanchers, or hunt Sith wiht your powerful lightsaber.Wield the power of the Force with Force speed, Force grip, and Force lighting.Not good grahics but it has great multi-player."
160781,2,"Good yoga, mediocre DVD quality","Bryan's power yoga always gives me a good work out at the studio, and this DVD more or less provides a similar level of workout.The sequences of the poses, and Bryan's explanation, are very good. Bryan's constant reminder of adapting the asanas to your own body, and his emphasis of breathing are extremely valuable for someone who is still learning the ropes about yoga.The DVD editing, and the video quality can be improved, however. Sometimes I think due to trying to fit 3 sessions onto a single DVD, the editor had to cut some repetitions, making following the exact movement and breathing a bit difficult. This may have contributed some other users' complaints about not having enough warm up. Video and audio quality are mediocre, especially the voice recording is not always the best, even metalic sometimes. With that said, it is a good value for having all 3 levels in one. I wouldn't mind paying a little more for a better production quality video though."
160811,2,"Very enjoyable, even today","I remember watching this each week on the Mickey Mouse Club. I knew my kids would really enjoy it.Yes, the story is from a simpler time. There is no high-tech stuff, and it is in black and white. However, my (atypical) kids don't watch tv, except an occasional video from our dvd player. I felt that this would be a nice program for them to see. They just ate it up! We watched the entire 2-disks over a couple of days. They are singing the ""Triple R"" song. If there was a Triple R Ranch, they'd probably want to sign up."
160869,2,Gargoyles Vol1,Can't actually review this dvd because it seems to be the wrong format for my player here in Australia.Am trying to find a player that will play it.
160952,2,Lot's of Good Information in a Small Package,"I have only had a chance to scan through this book, but I could immediately see it is loaded with great information that just might save your life. It's also small enough to fit into a backpack and take up very little space."
160985,2,Great pillow - no more stiff neck,"I also discovered this pillow in a hotel, and was so excited to find a pillow that didn't store the heat from my head. You get the sense that air circulates inside this pillow. As another review said, it's perfect great to plump up and punch into a shape you like, but I also agree with the other reviewer who said that your head drops into a hole by the morning. I was told my a local vendor that there are (or were) different variations of this pillow...with a ""super-stuffed"" version that keeps this from happening. I made 2 pillows out of 3 of these to solve the problem...I now take some with me when I go on road trips. The language about the material used in the filling is pretty elaborate for what appears to be shredded plastic dry-cleaning bags. But I love this pillow. I no longer wake with a stiff neck, and that is worth a lot of $$. Gave two to my elderly mother and she absolutely loves them."
161005,2,Best Rap Album of all time,Look at the title. Its as simple as that . If tupac was still alive ther would be no Jay-z. No Ja rule. Just real hiphop . This album will never be topped from any rapper. RIP
161008,2,"go tupac,","this cd has some great lyrics that speak the truth, unlike other people who rap about nothing all the time. his first disc as a lot of great songs, like americas most wanted, how do u want it, only god can judge me, tradin' war stories, and on the second disc are some really good songs also. this is the best double disc cd ive ever seen. keep it up tupac, and dont stop now. youve got some phat beats."
161011,2,These 4 stars are just for the first cd.,"I think if they would just release the first cd of this album, it would have much more succes. The first song ""Ambitionz Az A Ridah"" is not so good, but is is followed by a couple of exellent songs: ""All About U"", with Dru Down, Snoop Doggy Dogg and Nate Dogg, then again Nate Dogg on ""Skandalouz"", and ""Got My Mind Made Up"" with Daz & kurupt and Method man & Redman. Then on the same cd, there's ""2 Of Amerikaz Most Wanted"" with Snoop... this song is one of the best on the cd with ""California Love"" featuring Dr. Dre. The second cd is not so good, I don't know what to say about it.. :)Peace."
161013,2,"Greatest TV show ever, without a doubt!!!","All I can say is I went to work the next day after finishing the DVD and quit. This show will in some way mimic the way you yourself go about your daily life.....sad,happy,depressed, unsatisfied,satisfied, you get the point. I would recommend this to anyone with a brain,and to someone who really does believe ignorance is bliss, but never gets to experience it. Watch it, it will change your current outlook on life!"
161027,2,A good movie !!,"If you love the franchise, you should have this movie too, the special effect are excellent, a lot of action, good actors, so you will like it"
161031,2,One of the best!,"A powerful, emotional score that I find myself listening to on a regular basis while working at the keyboard. The incredible opening theme managing to be both stirring and sad at the same time. Most of the tracks are memorable, and you'll quickly find yourself recalling favorite scenes from the film, which is after all the goal of a successful soundtrack album.A perfect addition to any film music collection, and an absolute must-have for anyone who enjoyed the movie."
161053,2,directions and applcations of spray finishing of furniture;,"I think this would be a great first, beginner book for the just beginning painter of home-made furniture. It could show more patterns for the experienced woodmaker, but overall, it's a good book."

161117,2,This is a really good city sim/strategy game,I guess I've had it about a month. I read all the reviews before buying Caesar IV and was a bit worried about bugs and graphics requirements. I have a three year old Pentium 4 3.0 ghz processor with a half gig of RAM and a Geforce 7600 256 mb video card. The game runs fine on the factory default settings. I have not felt the need to look at or adjust them. The game great and plays perfectly. No crashes or video problems at all. I have not played online yet. I have played this game for hours without realizing how long it's been. It is thoroughly engrossing. I knocked it one star due to the time it takes to load up. Could be my machine though as my kids have put all kinds of online junk that may be slowing it down.
161246,2,Check the date this book was published.,"For the people who are reviewing this book and giving it a one because they feel sorry for Rush and his drug addiction, please check the date of publication.Franken knew Rush was a big, fat, idiot before his drug addiction became public. I read it and ""Lies and the Lying Liars who Tell Them"", and found both funny and entertaining. ""Lies"" has more factual info but I enjoyed them both. If you don't like liberals you shouldn't read these books. I don't listen to Rush unless I'm with some one else who is and I can't escape. He drives me crazy. I feel sorry for him that he is an addict but what makes him better or more treatable than all the other addicts he has been advocating throwing in jail?His money? His color? Rush is a big fat idiot who got his servant to commit illegal acts to feed his addiction. I hope he learns something about being human."
161294,2,FANTASTIC!!!,"I know this is short, but after listening to this marvelous masterpiece, I was left speechless. Regardless of all the negative criticism, this album is flawless. Faith performs excellent vocals on superb songs, something Shania Twain lacks (especially on the terrible CD she just released...ACK!). Do yourself a favor and purchase this album. I guarantee you will LOVE it!"
161304,2,good,The best song is NOT by van morrison BUT by Little Steven. Time of your life is AWESOME and can't find anywhere other than this soundtrack!!!! He makes the whole soundtrack!!!!!!!!!!!
161405,2,Absolutely Glorious!!,"I knew from other reviews, not to mention the Tony awards, that Ragtime's music was someting special. I was, however, totally and utterly blown away. From the opening chords to the final stanza, the entire score is pure Broadway magic. My only regret about purchasing the CD... I didn't buy it sooner!!"
161410,2,evans resonate side,"Sounds good so far even with old batter head. It has a nice sound even without the batter side on. One could use as the batter side, but it would not last long. Nice coating as well."
161463,2,"Great work, however","I really love this stuff, however no footage of the battle of midway? The most pivotal point in the war of the pacific! But I'm completely satisfied with the price. (HD cheaper than SD?)"
161660,2,Wonderful story and fantastic illustration,"My children LOVED this book! It's one of my favorite children's book. It illustrates in vivid pictures the extent a mother will go to feed her children in spite of their difficult requests because of her enormous love for each of them. As a mother of picky eaters, I could only hope the message of the book will translate to children how much they are loved, but also how much life would be easier if everyone ate the same thing! The illustrations are beautiful, too."
161678,2,Spelling -- this little book is GOLD -- it works!,"Delighted to find this book! I remember it from my high school years when it transformed a terrible speller (me). This little book helped me learn to spell easily. Simple to use because it only takes a few minutes a day. It really helps your brain to remember, process and eventually will help you to effortlessly spell new words.I have also used this book to encourage my home school students in their spelling. I would highly recommend it to anyone with ANY motivation to learn to spell well."
161703,2,Everything I Wanted Only It Was Late,"I got everything i wanted except it was late, but the owner said it was for personnel reasons. Also he gave me extra tweezers. It was a little smaller than I thought it would be. Overall I would give it 5 stars, only it was late so i'm giving it 4 stars. I suggest you try to get it from swissarmyknifepro he is the person who I got it from."
161781,2,This book is really cool!,We read this book yesterday and we thought it was really cool! We loved how you can choose what happens. My friend read it a billion times and said it was really cool!
161792,2,One of the most powerful and moving records I have ever heard,Of some 3000 records I own Johnny Cash's The Man Comes Around is one of the most powerful and moving I have ever heard. Cash gives meaning and deapht to songs that would just pass by when done by other artists.
161801,2,"Quiet, cool, fast and reliable","I've used my Lacie d2 BigDisk 500 GB drive for about 6 months now, and have been very pleased. It is very quiet, almost silent. Runs at a good temperature and keeps cool with an alloy case. I haven't had any problems using it with my USB 2.0 connection and Windows XP (service pack 2) as the operating system. Formatted and partitioned it without any problems. It has been a godsend for storing large media files and backing up crucial data for storage off of my network. The drive conveniently shuts down at the same time you shut down the PC. I've read the other reviews and have been surprised at the problems others have had. Then again, I think all hard drives are susceptible to difficulties, especially with heavy use. After many years of extremely heavy-duty computer usage - and after having tried most hard drives under the sun (Maxtor, Western Digital, Seagate), I have to say that this is one of the most impressive products I've used."
161859,2,Great movie,"My son kept talking about how much he liked this movie, so we had to buy it. It's a classic Disney movie. Has a few scary parts like many Disney movies, but nothing extreme."
161887,2,WILSON PICKETT CD,ONE OF WILSON PICKETT'S EARLIER ALBUMS. HAD SONGS THAT HIS OTHER ALBUMS DIDN'T HAVE. WE LIKE A LARGE VARIETY OF MUSIC AND THIS WAS A MUST HAVE.
162012,2,Sharptastic retractable highlighter!,"Sharpie's retractable ""accent"" highlighters are great. No smearing of the text or over saturation of ink that bleeds through to other pages and the ink dries almost instantly which is nice.The chisel tip is great and personally I prefer it because it allows me to highlight small text with ease.The addition of a pocket clip is nice. It not only allows you to clip it to your pocket, papers, etc., it prevents the marker from rolling off the desk.I did have to take 1 star off of this set for one reason, price. You can get many other brands of highlighters that work just as well for half this price.No cap to fiddle with just click, mark, click, really can't get any easier than that.Pros:Great vibrant colors!Does not bleed through as badly as other brands of highlighters.Chisel tip allows for precise marking.One handed operation.Cons:Price."
162050,2,New York State Jaycees' 1997-98 Theme,"The State Jaycees' President of that year chose this book as a theme. I served as a local Chapter President during that year (Colonie New York) and bought the book just after his election to State President.It brought tears to my eyes. A must read for anyone who wants to ""go places""."
162069,2,Excellent Book,This is an excellent book. The contents are very helpful and organized very well. The author does a great job explaining the usage of the code examples and teachs how to write UI Automation.
162096,2,Digital Blue Microscope,This is the third Blue I've bought. Two went to my grandkids and this one I donated to a Christian school where I do volunteer work. They're great tools for young science students.
162158,2,Everything I hoped it would be and more...,"We are going on our first camping trip this weekend so I haven't really slept in it yet. However, we pitched it in the backyard for a test run. It was easy to assemble and took us about 30 minutes the first time around. I had no idea that there was a front and back door on this tent. Other tents I have had in the past only had one entrance. I thought this was a great feature. We had it up all day and over night. We had a very heavy rainstorm the afternoon we put it up and only a few drops entered the tent near the windows. I was fairly shocked that it was this waterproof! Of course this was with the rain fly on. Also, my husband is 6 foot tall and he can stand up in the tent which was one of my main criteria for purchasing the right tent for our family. I am very excited about our first camping trip this weekend with my husband, 2 year old son, and dog."
162163,2,My son's most favorite teether!,"This is the best teether by far! My son got it when he was about 4 months old, and has loved it from day one! He's 19 months old now, and still loves to chew on it and play with it. He has always preferred this teether over any of his others, and my favorite thing about it is that it goes in the washer and dryer just like any of his other blankets! We love it so much, it's on my baby registry for our next baby! Highly recommended!!"
162219,2,Great read!,"Always a fan of follett, I picked this one up based off the great amazon reviews. I haven't been able to put it down. I'm loving following along with the subjects of the book as they unravel the mysteries of war time."
162261,2,best listened to when high,"I don't believe this version is remastered, just reissued and repackaged with the original stars & stripes front cover. There is no indication anywhere that this cd was remastered at all, and that is also clearly evident when listening to it. The production is very muddled and narcotic sounding, which is no doubt somewhat intentional, but also something that needs to be cleared up a little to meet with todays sonic standards for sound. That being said, this is now one of my all time favorite cd's after hearing it for the first time yesterday. I've already listened to eight times and am completely mesmerized by it. Its an album that is both trying to pull you in and push you away. Just like a drug. Very effective and very addictive."
162330,2,A Universal tale,"This is a very watchable program and is faithful to the book.""It was the best of times, it was the worst of times."" The times have not changed much.I just saw the movie ""Les Miserables"" which I considered very well done, and I would rate ""A Tale of Two Cities"" comparable. The themes of both books resonate and are timeless.Watch it!"
162332,2,Good fun for adults and older kids,"We're big star Wars fans at my house, so this seemed like a perfect game. I was expecting it to be pretty much like the regular trivial pursuit, but there were some differences. I really liked the way they had special holders for your ""pie"" pieces. It's easy to get them in crooked or sideways on the round pie holders, and hard to get them unstuck. This game's design worked much better. The questions were about the same difficulty level. Some were extremely easy, some ridiculously hard, most somewhere in the middle. Most were from the original trilogy, with a few from Episode 1.The main diffence was that there are no dice. Instead, there's a little R2-D2. You push a button on his ""head"" and that randomly selects a number from 1-6. That's cool, but it also makes little chirping sounds like the real R2-D2, which was not very cool after about 6 turns. We gave up a found some regular dice.Still, if your family likes both games and Star Wars, this would be lots of fun."
162354,2,oh yeah..i read this in a day...and i'm glad i did.,"it goes by pretty quickly. guy and girl fall in love over email. that's the premiss of this novel. my favorite part is where the man emails CHAPTER 17 of this novel he's writing. it is so HOTT!!! but i love meg cabot so i'm biased. good chick lit, again this little nogut goes down fast and sweet! bon appettie!"
162422,2,nice hammock,strong and well built. Though next time I think I'll get a canvas one. I have to put a thick towel on it-the ropes are not comfortable to lie on. Not the manufactruers fault-just what it is.
162460,2,lovin the vamps!,This is a great show! It's my new favorite :) and ordering with amazon is so simple you just order it and view on computer tv or laptop
162481,2,walk all day in these,These are the most comfortable long-distance walking shoes ever! They provide comfort and support and are just as comfortable with orthotics. They are great right out of the box without any break-in period.
162485,2,Another Excellent Book by Scott McKain,"This book does an excellent job of pointing out the common misconceptions businesses have about what they think their customers want compared to what they really need. I don't know that I would say it is a wake-up call to all business owners and/or professionals (certainly it is for some), but it is definitely a much needed reminder to constantly evaluate what we are really doing and to make the necessary changes to meet the needs of our customers."
162553,2,Brain,This game is fun and frustrating. If you have played barin age 1 you should know what I mean. But the more you play the more you want to play.
162574,2,Excellent Story!,This was a thoroughly entertaining! I was quite surprised by the ending. I can't wait to read the next one in the series.
162598,2,Aushwitz,A first person account of the horrors of the German death camps of World War ll. Very hard to read as most of it is of horrors no one not there can really grasp.if you want to know the truth it is a must read.
162599,2,Very informative,"This book describes the terrible events, witnessed firsthand by a doctor who did whatever to survive. I couldn't imagine the horror this man went through to survive. If you want to know the sick truth on what the Nazis did to the Jews, this book definitely describes it for you!"
162608,2,The Best Book Ever!!!!!!!!,"I Really Loved The Book. This is a Must READ. For People who Didn't Under stand it Beacuse it seemed unfinished, There is a Book after it called Whatever Happened to Janie?? If you Haven't already read this book read it NOW."
162617,2,An alright book,"Dean Koontz's The Face of Fear was an excellent book, but I was disappointed in the ending. Overall the book was great. The novel focused mainly on the police and a clairvoyant named Graham Harris trying to catch a killer named the Butcher. Some of the parts of the book are extremely graphic, so I would not recommend this book for anyone under seventeen or someone who has a weak stomach. The ending, like I said, was disappointing because I expected for something else to happen that was more exciting. I am starting to like Dean Koontz's books and... this is a good buy."
162707,2,Very informative but where are the Maps?,"I found this book to be very rewarding and interesting, but not without fault. I found the lack of maps (or the absence of a map with more of the placenames mentioned) in the book to be very annoying - and I confess I got geographically lost at some points. I found the book very well researched and some of the stories and anecdotes very entertaining. In fact, I wished that there could have been room for more traveller's stories within the book. I must say that I got a bit disorientated in the middel of the book but it came together well. The additon of many photographs (rare in a book of this type) was a fantasic bonus and really added to the enjoyment of the book. Overall a highly entertaining and educational book but would have been so much better with the addition of more detailed maps."
162709,2,AMAZING,"I always love Mr Gaiman;'s work. Sandman is probably his opus given the size and the eclectic nature of the themes. The Endless as interpreted by a Master like Gaiman represent an amazing world that weaves the deepest recesses of the collective consciousness, mythology, history and keep it living enough to be interesting. Aesthetically, the books are great and the artwork is just as eclectic as the are the themes. I wish I was exposed to this stuff as a kid..."
162731,2,About A Burning Fire,"Sound: This CD is by a band called Blindside that is from Stockholm, Sweden. This CD rules because of the unique blend of hard rock and vocals that scream passion right into your face. One of the songs, ""Shekina"", is partially written in their native tongue, Swedish and has a Swedish singer as well. This is just one of the many unique sounds on this album.Lyrics: My overall impression of the lyrics on this CD were that they were skillfully written and, after a few listens, are easy to sing along to. The singer, Christian Lindskog, blends screaming with heart-felt vocals that tie into the emotion of the lyrics. Blindside's lyrics are Christian and their lyrics back that up.Impression: My overall impression of this band was that it was one of the best bands I have ever heard. Their lyrics and music are unique and enjoyable to listen to. The best songs are: ""Eye of the Storm,"" ""Follow You Down,"" ""All of Us,"" ""Across Waters Again,"" ""After You're Gone"" and ""About a Burning Fire."""
162811,2,TAKING AWAY THE FEAR,"Another powerful book in Harold Klemp's series of books that offer ways to build bridges of love to everyone. He touches on mutual respect, goodwill, recognizing the uniqueness of others, looking for the God- quality in each person, since we are all creations of God. The book offers insight into life, and helps to take away the fear of both living and dying. The perfect gift for all seasons. It contains vibrant phrases of spiritual wisdom on giving and gratitude among other subjects. The book is an inspirational momento for perpetually remembering to recognize and count our daily blessings. These are not passive platitudes, they are proactive gems, affirmations that enhance spiritual growth and lead the way to spiritual freedom. Well written and highly recommended."

162961,2,"Canon E1, Camera hand strap",This product is very helpful while shooting my camera off hand for extended periods. The strap properly adjusted allows easy insertion of my right hand while providing a loose glove fit during shooting. The result is ability to have a relaxed grip on the camera without the chance of dropping the camera. I have one of these installed on each of 3 different Canon cameras. It does require installing an extended battery grip with has the required attachment point or a Pro Camera such as the EOS1 film or digital cameras which are already intended to accept this accessory.
162974,2,plays everything..,nice product.. sleek.. plays all kinds of cd RW .. hdmi up conversion and lots of nice features... like the eject response to be faster.. but maybe its normal as others.. like the product for its price to value :)
163058,2,The Idiot's Guide to Quilting,"I read in QuiltersHome Magazine that Mark found this to be on of his most used reference guide books. I have looked at second hand stores for this book since last April and could not find it. Then I decided to see if Amazon had it. Not only did you have it, but even the updated version. The price and shipping was great.Now that I have the book, it is easy to use and is a wonderful reference book. I would prefer to more color pictures but other then that it is really easy for Quilter want-a-b's to understand. It was a really good experience for me to order through Amazon and will do so more often when I am looking for a book. I actually received the book in less than a week. The book is a joy to have and read. If it had more color pictures, I would have given it a 5 star.Sincerely,Cindy"
163103,2,last of the set,great series. Even non-Christians should read at least the first book because the idea is great as fiction. A perfect ending.
163128,2,"Hammockville, Tx","I would recomend this product to anyone who like to chill. Easy to set up anywhere, and exceptionally comfortable. Easily worth the money."
163213,2,Gotta have it if you do construction for a living.,"First, these sell at Home Depot for $386 and ebay for cheaper. Most commercial framers will tell you this is a must have tool. I prefer it over a Trac Fast gun. Attach wood and metal (hat channel) furring strips to concrete. Use it to attach plywood subfloor down prior to laying your hardwood floor down. Its fast, easy to use and built like a tank.A quality product from Bostitch."
163218,2,Excellent sock,"These socks are well padded in the sole and very comfortable! Good to wear around the house. In cold weather they keep your feet warm when in house, and keep feet warm when worn outside. Have not worn them in warm weather yet."
163351,2,That's Entertainment,"Perhaps being a fan of the author's insightful op-ed pieces add lustre to this straightforward memoir, but as someone who does not normally read autobiographies I was amazed at how engrossed I was in ""Ghost Light."" It certainly helps to share the context of generational cues, a love of 50's musicals, and having read ""Act One"" as breathlessly as Rich did, way back when. Okay, almost as breathlessly."
163405,2,Tony Bennett Wins Again!,"Listening to track samples on the web the day before we received our copy of Playin' With My Friends, we immediately got a ""charge"". This is among Tony's finest efforts, and he couldn't have better company on this one! Songs, voices and musicianship are the finest, and the energetic performances are sure to please all ages. This is even better than Ellington Hot and Cool!"
163452,2,GREAT sunblock,"My skin is super sensitive to sunlight. I burn sitting in front of a window in 20 minutes, outside in 10. Like red burn, OK? I have to put block on every single day or the UV will crispy fry me. The Active works all day even when out sailing under the hot sun for 6 hours at a time. Careful to rub in well around eyes or excess will drip/run down into eyes and burn.Just purchased the new Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch by Neutrogena. Has the same exact active ingredients and percentile as the Active. It does feel dryer BUT the Dry-Touch tube is one ounce less (3 OZ) than the Active (4 OZ) at the same price. Inflation my butt.The other interesting note is the Dry-Touch has no expiration date stamped on the tube. Also the tube design doesn't allow you to squeeze out every last drop of block unlike the Active where you remove the top and there sits a finger sized hole.I'll buy more of the Active to last me another year soon."
163475,2,"Nice size, great color","I bought the Roundabout for my husband's car after purchasing the Marathon for mine. I originally bought the Marathon after reading that tall children outgrow the Roundabout pretty quickly (my daughter is 80% in height). So I bought the Marathon and compared to the Roundabout, it is pretty big. I really love the size and shape of the Roundabout and wish I bought it for my car. The straps dont seem to get twisted like they do on the Marathon. And the Roundabout is much smaller, less bulky and easier to install via seat belt (as opposed to Latch which is easy either way) than the Marathon. I also LOVE the color. Onyx is a fantastic color in person. I bought the Marathon in granite and the color is not as nice as the onyx. All in all, if I had to do it over again, I would purchase 2 Roundabouts in onyx."
163521,2,Refurb is good,"I bought this when the 880 was priced at almost $200 new. I've been using the refurbished 880 for a couple months now with no real problems. Once, it reset it's settings after an update, but that is a bug whether it's a refurb or not. It only happened that one time and not again."
163559,2,Nuns aren't all that innocent!,"If you want to see a movie that is a visual masterpiece you have come to the right place! Black Narcissus has some of the most beautiful on screen compsitions of any film I have seen. The most remarkable thing about this movie is that it was shot in the studio - in the hands of any team other than Powell and Pressburger and Cardiff this would be a serious problem - but here the set design, surprisingly, adds more to the way this film looks than it takes away - it is not the material the artist uses but how he or she uses it. This story about a nunnery run amok is as hilarious as it is intriguing - at times I found myself just delighted by the naughty sister Ruth, who is overcome by her wild desires - there is but a very small step between the innocent and the possessed"
163563,2,excellent,"A must buy. I cant say anything bad about it. Love the battery life, uses camcorder battery. I would highly recommend it. Excellent picture quality."
163628,2,Light hearting and amusing,Found this to be an easy read. As with most of these authors books it was amusing too. Hero's and Heroines were somwhat predictable but as I am a fan I could live with that.
163713,2,Fun Flick,"OK--so it's not a great film theatrically--who cares? This is one of the few films out there that fulfills that need to see the great outdoors. Sadly, Hollywood is pathetic when it comes to making movies about outdoor adventure and the common ""Joe"" (except for ""The Edge"", ""The River Wild"" and ""Cliffhanger"" to name a few). The classic 80's soundtrack featuring The Cult, Bruce Hornsby, and others make it even better... This movie is a part of my childhood memory, and for a long time was impossible to get, because it was out of print on VHS. I was so excited to learn it was being released on DVD with new packaging. I will definitely be buying it."
163768,2,EXCELLENT!,Pros:Cleans spots and does a pretty good job at it.IT is best to get the spots right when they happen that way it really does a good job.I had to replace the belt a few times. other than that this little cleaner does a decent job.It is not easy to get in to narrow places or awkward positions but for the carpet and chairs it does a very good job.I have not tried others so I will say this is a great buy!.
163803,2,The Truth finally,Mitchell proves beyond any shadow of a doubt that the attack on the Liberty was not only deliberate but also premedicated. Until now there had been no motivation for the attack but it is now perfectly clear. A must see for lovers of history.
163834,2,song help,"does anyone have a copy of the instrumental versions of signal to noise and hands that built america? if so, please email me at ppolonskiy@yahoo.com. thanks."
163862,2,Very good and strong Gel.,"Pros: Very good smell, strong hold, less flaky(but still a little flaky)Cons: If you touch your hair too hard it gets messed up, at first the gel doesn't stick, you have to wait till it dries for the full effect.Buy it if you can take a little flakiness and are willing to be patient till it dries. Overall, very good shampoo!"
163929,2,Loved it!!,"I really enjoyed the way that Wayne Darling writes as soon as I was finished reading it, I immediately looked for more books by the author. It was very informative and I have read so many books on crystals. This book was A+ Loved it!!"
163930,2,Good acid jazz,"Nice album... has a medeski, martin, and wood sound mixed with hip-hop and acid jazz. very good for techno, hip hop, and acid jazz fans."
163933,2,One of the Great Disney Series,"First off I'd like to say, another reviewer was disappointed the DVDs lacked closed-captioning, but it has subtitles that the DVD states are for the hearing-impaired, so it's basically the same thing.This series, and Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers, have been long overdue for release. The video quality might not be a+ but it's good enough! People complaining about the lack of the pilot shouldn't worry, because I'm fairly confident it will be on a later set, but likely in the multi-episode format and not as a full movie. Either way, it's great to have Ducktales on DVD! Hopefully Talespin and Darkwing Duck will soon follow."
163952,2,Great game,My son loves playing this game along with his friends on XBox. He would definitely recommend this to other gamers.
163990,2,Durable but not easy to install for auto-close,"It took me forever to figure out how to angle it right so it closes automatically! Otherwise, looks like a durable solid product. A video on istallation would have been very helpful"
164032,2,Nice!,"Bought a portable Bose iPod docker, lasted 3 hours on an $85 battery...took it back, bought this iLive..features excellent. Speaker volume a bit 'tinny' if turned up 'high' in the great wide open..Remote works consistently (unlike the portable Bose remote)..a nice ""Boombox"". Plan to enjoy many hours on beach during the day and at night around the bonfires."
164042,2,"Peerless ST640P Universal Tilt Wall Mount for 23"" to 46"" Screens","This mount worked perfectly with my 32"" Sony LCD HDTV. Easy to install.Peerless ST640P Universal Tilt Wall Mount For 23"" To 46"" Screens"
164086,2,Love it!,"This movie is amazing! Sooo funny! I can watch it over and over! Beware - some of your friends may think you're nuts. Of course, I have friends who think the Monty Python's Holy Grail is nuts."
164290,2,Dream Theater Is The Most Underated Band In America,"This cd is one of Dream Theater's finest. They are quite possibly the most complex, yet melodic band out there today. The guitarist and the bass player are the best I have ever heard. It is a shame that they do not get the recognition they deserve. This is not a 3 chord band!"
164419,2,GREAT PRODUCT,at just under 16lbs this UPS handles everything you can throw at it. This unit replaced my dying APC smart-ups 1000. It's well worth buying a new UPS at $109 vs spending $129 for a replacement battery on my old APC unit. The digital display will attract alot of us that like to see what the unit is doing. In all this is a great prodcut for a great price.
164463,2,Works great,I bought this penlet back in 2000. It has been working great now for 11 years. That's pretty good for a piece of plastic. It seems fairly sturdy. I use it with One Touch UltraSoft lancets and I have the Penlet Plus set at a low setting of about three. I am always able to get a drop of blood with one try. The shallow prick does not hurt my finger.
164485,2,great sheets,"I love these so much, I ordered a second set. The reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is that, of the two sets, one pillowcase is slightly smaller than the others - but still big enough for a king pillow. I'm very surprised by the other reviews. I ordered Bok Choy and Pink Blush in King. Maybe different sizes or colors are made in different locations?"
164526,2,good and informative,this book puts all rumors aside on alchemy. it tells straight up what is real alchemy and what is fake. it is extremely informative and i would recommend it to anyone interested in the subject
164543,2,"Pandas, Pandas Everywhere","Take one tube of pandas, add another product jungle themed environmental toy, and you have the great makings of panda paradise for the little one. Saw a similar concept in another toy magazine but was outrageously priced. Amazon came to the rescue with this great little product. Each animal strikes a different pose and no two are alike. Daughter (3 yrs) love to play with these guys and if I can coral them at night... eay pick-up and storage into a tupperware container.PROS: durable; multiple animals; each with unique pose; nice paint scheme on each animal; can be used in different play settings (I used Animal Plant products)CONS: They tend to escape their holding pen and come under my feet... UUUgghh darn panda!Well recommended"
164643,2,Love it!,"I also love this product. I use to buy it at Wal-Mart, but of course they stopped carrying it. I can't use antibacterial soaps because of the type of septic system I have. I love this product and hate I can't buy it locally anymore. I hope they don't stop making it. And I love the scent."
164652,2,The Most Original SciFi Author Now Writing,"What John Varley was to the 1970s and early 1980s, Greg Egan is to the 1990s and 2000s: An author who thinks about what it will be like for the human mind and soul to encounter the technological advances that can change the nature of consciousness itself. After reading a story like one of these you are too stunned to think, because the concepts themselves are so mind-blowing. This book, by the way, is only the beginning: Egan's later stories (many of which can be found in Gardner Dozois's annual collections of science fiction) and Egan's novels (especially Diaspora) show more of the same."
164667,2,Great Show,"Very thought provoking, suspenseful, and adventurous! With endearing characters. The writers accomplish the task of balancing action with drama so that it appeals to a variety of audiences."
164819,2,the kind you do not see is also there.,"Lexingtontruth.com explain how a whole community is controled by a few powerful people.There large pigs on each street corner and they have an annual festival. It looks very innocent, but i see the worst kind of evil, poverty and abuse of power.Reading this book helped me see the known and the unknown and how to survive both.If you come to NC and hear banjos is the woods, be very concerned. Hell is on Earth in my estimate, and is growing."
164842,2,Great Bang For Your AVR Buck = Onkyo TX-SR 805,"Yo-This receiver is an awesome addition to my home entertainment system.It replaces a Denon 3802 purchased in 2000 for $1200. This bad boy sounds better, looks better, is far easier to set up, has THX Ultra 2 certification, weighs 20 pounds more, has superior speaker jack placement on the back, runs cooler, has HDMI in and out, is much more powerful and cost less than $700 shipped!!!A lot to like and nothing to not like-eh!!"
164848,2,Well-organized,"This book will be useful because it is clear and well-organized. Each chapter is introduced with a quick reference table of contents. The headings within the chapter make it easy to follow the outline (organization) of the material. There are numerous graphics and procedure lists. Where appropriate, source code is listed by way of demonstration. The coverage of the material is comprehensive."
164857,2,We forget that we're animals....,Amazing piece of work. Very slow reading... meaty. Well written. This should be the primer for every field of study in every country. We are first and foremost biological organisms. We live in language like fish in a fish bowl. Fish can't distinguish water. It defines them. Same with language with human beings... we are defined by our listening and speaking and don't have a clue.The illustrations are the best... I think it is one of the most important books of our time.
164897,2,Numbers 1 2 3,I like the size and quality of the book and sincerely hope my son and his wife will use it to help prepare my grandson for kindergarten.
164905,2,Exceptional,"I have an Isuzu Axiom, gone to many shops who did not have the proper software. This machine read everything possible on the car. It did a job that machines costing hundreds or even thousands more can't do."
164914,2,Wooden Teeth and Jelly Beans-- the greatest president book,"Okay, so I'm kind of young but hey! I can still review a great book. Wooden teeth and Jelly beans is a book about presidents- but not the ordinary kind. It gives great facts in a fun and colorful way. I enjoyed reading it and kept on reading it over and over. I reccommend this book for anyone that can read or is in the ages of 7 to 777 years old. I especially loved the pictures that are like really good charicatures of all the presidents from Washington to Clinton. I really hope you pick up this book because this book is the best example I have seen of an educational book that can be fun!"
164922,2,Great,I ordered the O2 sensor and it arrived the next day. It was perfect for what I needed to pass emissions in the state of GA. It arrived faster than me buying and installing it locally since it takes me a couple of days to put it in as long as my vehicle is operable.

164982,2,Cuisinart dcc-2000 coffee,"great service, got the best price around. just don't use really finely ground coffee in it, or you will get grounds."
165087,2,Baking Low Carb,"This is a fabulous book if you like to bake and are low-carbing. The author makes it easy to start by giving you tips on what you need to have on hand and where to get them, which is really helpful. Some of our favorites are the zucchini and pumpkin breads and the peanut butter cookies. The nut recipes are good too! I would highly recommend this book for anyone that is low-carbing. It's nice to have a treat that doesn't screw up your way of eating healthy."
165119,2,This movie makes you glad that you watched.,"Some people expect a realistic story for a movie, but not me. I would like to be entertained and afterward would like to enjoy the happy ending since this world is such a chaotic place... So, I totally enjoyed this movie. If you like Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves and also like a happy ending, you ought to watch this movie!"
165167,2,"New York, Empire City: 1920-1945",No regrets but I wish there were more photos of the city and street scenes.
165195,2,"WHO THE HELL IS KEITH EMERSON?, PART II","Lipatti is the greatest classical pianist I have ever heard; the level of PURITY and NON-SENTIMENTAL ROMANTIC TRANSCENDENCE is just AMAZING. He is the greatest interpreter of Chopin who ever lived, better than Horowitz even. Unfortunately the man suffered a tragic early death and his recordings are few.I treasure everything on this Double CD set, except for the Schuman and the Grieg pieces, which I hate; but that's just my particular taste and reflects my inability to tolerate orchestral overemphasis interfering with Lipatti's sublime meditations."
165228,2,Zicolicious,"The Pineapple coconut water was delicious. I like it ice cold. It was very benificial in bringing my 90 year old mother back from dehydration. Shared it with a couple of my friends who have had some health issues. Not saying it is a cure--no, but it has certainly helped with not having enough intake of fluids. It rates a 5 star from me. Thanks ZICO & Amazon for making my purchase affortable & easy to purchase."
165249,2,Be Ready to Tinker,"My husband and I bought this piano for our 2-year-old daughter for Christmas. We know how she loves to pound on Grandma's piano, and we were impressed that these toys have all the notes in the right places. If you learn to play a song on one of these toys, you can play it on a ""real"" piano, too!The assembled toy is cute, comes with a handy color-coded bar that explains which key is which and corresponds to colors in their mini songbook that came with the piano: good so far.However, we would never have known what a cute piano this is if my husband weren't a handy guy. Upon first assembly, the keys wouldn't work. My husband spent a couple hours putting this piano together Christmas Eve and getting it to work.Don't be fooled by the German brand! This toy is made in China, and it really showed in the assembly.If you have had trouble assembling things in the past, look for a used or pre-assembled piano. This one isn't for you."
165272,2,Great Opera and recording from Kirov,Boris Godunov is a terrific opera even without a dominate female lead. Kirov production is first rate.
165313,2,Raven!!!! This bands kills all the others w/ Sheer Power!!!,"I have known about this band since they came onto the scene in 1981. NWOBHM RULES!. I saw them live every single time they came anywhere within 3 states of where I live in Maryland. They are amazing live and the new album ""ONE FOR ALL"" reminds me of them in the hayday of Crash, Bang, Wallop and Wiped out... I remember they were so nuts on stage (the brothers, Gallagher) use to run at opposite end of the stage and smash into each other while playing and never missed a note. If any one wants to chat or drop me a line on Raven, feel free.... Or if you have any bootlegs and want to trade let me know.... LIVE AT THE INFERNO, FOREVER!!!!!!"
165315,2,commentary and sermons from the Psalms,Warren Wiersbe does his usual fine job in this book on Psalms chapters 90-150. The book arrived on time as ordered.
165375,2,This book is really for Parents!!!!,"When i first read the book (in the bookstore) I was laughing, realizing this was written really for us, Parents - who used to read ""straight"" fairy tales. The twist really made the difference.But my little girl loves the dragon ""da gween dwagon""!"
165432,2,Writing Nonfiction,The author has many ideas I will use when I begin writing a non-fiction book this year. Most of them very practical.
165453,2,Awesome gift!,I gave this to my aunt and she absolutely loved it. The product speaks for itself. The Monkees are awesome. Highly recommend!
165459,2,Another great book,"Great book to learn from, easy to follow and makes you want to play better poker for it"
165474,2,great product easy to use and very well made,very good product. We can't complain this could be a little taller because it packs very light and portable. Great buy.
165490,2,5 monkeys,My granddaughter considers this her favorite book.. She is 2 1/2 years old. It is very sturdy and good for her small hands...
165522,2,Works great for most purposes; can't see detail,"I use this to keep an eye on my dogs who stay in our downstairs hallway during the day. The camera's resolution is indeed low, but I can see my whole hallway illuminated with only 3 75 Watt recessed ceiling lights, and I can see that both my dogs are there and whether they are sleeping, playing or eating. The camera was super easy to set up and has given me zero problems. It picks up my wireless router that is two whole stories up with no problem. It works fine with IE6 or IE7, which is all I use. If you need to see detail like the expression on a person's face, this won't do it. But for most purposes it is just fine!"
165545,2,Excellent Western Short Story Collection,"This is a collection of Elmore Leonard's thirty Western short stories. These stories were written at the beginning of his career. Several of these classic stories were turned into movies. The most famous story in the collection is ""3:10 to Yuma"" which was turned into a classic western film starting Glenn Ford and then horribly butchered and mangled into a remake starring Russell Crowe.There are a number of other excellent stories here. Leonard does not use the normal stereotypes seen in so many western television shows and movies. ""Tonto Woman"" tells the story of a woman who has been rescued from captivity only to be exiled by society. ""Hurrah for Captain Early"" gives us a story rarely heard. How black soldiers saved Teddy Roosevelt and the Rough Riders at San Juan hill.These are all good stories. This was my first Leonard book and I enjoyed re-reading it as much asI enjoyed reading it the first time."
165579,2,"It actually works, for the right kind of dent.","I bought the Ding King beings somewhat skeptical, but I thought, ""It's only $20"". I had a dent in car that was an ideal candidate for this product. It was round and shallow, perfectly symmetrical.I bought the Ding King thinking that even if it didn't end up perfect, it would be better than it was.To my surprise, it worked perfectly. There is now no indication that there was ever a dent in that area."
165713,2,Luvvedit!,"My wife originally asked me to order the CD as I was not a bigfan of this particular artist. However, when I slipped it in theCD Player for her, I was astonished at the quality of the re-cording and the talent of the artist. I guess I had forgotten..."
165774,2,a page turner,The premise is ridiculous actually. But I couldn't put this one down! I really enjoyed it.
165804,2,Great book! Super creepy!,"I really liked this book. It kept me up 'til all hours of the night reading it to see what happened next. I was a tad disappointed at first because the title does seem a bit misleading. I was expecting a different sort of novel, but nonetheless, after reading a bit I was completely engrossed in the story. Like another reviewer said, it reminded me a bit of Stephen King's ""The Raft"". I kept thinking about if I was in this situation, what would I do? All I can say is, in the midst of reading this book I went out to do some yardwork around my house, and as I was pulling some vines off of one of the shrubs, I was definitely flinching a little thinking about this book. Any book that can do that, is a winner with me. No, it is not a lighthearted feel good story that you may want to read again, but it is definitely worth a reader's time in my opinion."
165824,2,worked for me.,"These, in combination with some closetmaid shelves helped me make a closet from scratch. They even fit on non-closet maid grill-like shelves."
165915,2,Five Stars for the great Kay Starr!,"""Live at Freddie's""(1985)provides listeners with an opportunity to hear the jazz side of Kay Starr in an intimate live performance at Freddie's in New York City with her jazz trio. As a serious collector and a personal friend of Katie I am thrilled to finally hear her show-stopping rendition of ""Help Me Make It Through The Night"" and ""For The Good Times"", two songs whose lyrics are combined and sung as one song. It was a surprise to Frank Ortega, Kay's arranger-conductor that Kay could sing these two great country songs together. As she told me in 2008, ""This unique arrangement was a masterpiece"". You will only hear it on this C.D.Paul Minar."
165935,2,This is a PIRATED LP!,"Ras Midas released ""Stand Up Wise Up"" on Celluloid (France). It was NOT RELEASED on Spalax. This is a pirated copy of Ras Midas's album. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS. It is copywrite infringement and pirating! -Nan Lewis, Entertainment Works, Manager for Ras Midas"
166038,2,One of the great sitcoms,"If you've never seen the Larry Sanders Show, it's time to watch. Career high turns from Garry Shandling, Jeffrey Tambor & especially Rip Torn, who's relentlessly fantastic in the thing. Also great performances from Jeremy Piven, Janeane Garofalo, Bob Odenkirk & Kathryn Harrold, with tons of guest stars, some of the best series writing ever to appear on TV and tons of TV talk show in-jokes. Well worth the price."
166086,2,Learning to like NASCAR through reading,"I didn't know what to expect when I picked up this ebook. Sharyn McCrumb is a very good storyteller. The book is a human interest tome and has many anecdotes and facts that I enjoyed. I know what NASCAR is and have a superficial knowledge of the sport but the author really brought it home. I don't think I'll look at it the same way any more. The stories involving the characters are quite good. I like books that have happy endings and when they are educational, humorous, interesting, and well written...bravo to the author. I will be buying more of her books now. I think people who don't follow NASCAR may well enjoy it as much or more than those who do."
166090,2,Joan of Arc,This film version of the real-life events that happened in 15th century France is historical and dramatically enacted.Students of European history will find it very useful to their studies and the film is also entertaining.It is also reverent to Joan and her claim to have been inspired by God and his saints to save France from foreign invasion.
166097,2,Wife and kids loved it.,Our family has always enjoyed the movie so when I found the sound track I had to buy it. I put it in my wife's stocking and we played it as soon as she found it Christmas morning. We all enjoy singing along with the wonderful songs.
166101,2,Will do the job,"This 3 hole puncher really will push through 40 sheets of copy paper with ease. It is a bit on the bulky side, but i like it. The handle locks down which is handy."
166106,2,Great Begining Financial Read!,"Getting Loaded is a fantastic book for someone just looking into personal finance for the first time or for someone (like myself) who has found themselves a bit too deep and looking to return to some rock solid basics. Getting Loaded is written in a fun and easy to follow fomat with detailed explanations as to why each ""secret"" starting each chapter of the book can or should be used by the reader. In my opinion this book would make a fantastic graduation gift! Highly reccomended."
166118,2,Great,This product is a great learning tool and can't wait for my daughter to use and try this. I expercienced a fast response. Thanks
166121,2,Out of the Cocteau-Clone Zone into more maturity,"Overall, I think this ablum is a lovely piece of emotional, achingly melancholic, charming music. Harriet Wheeler & Co. have managed, over their long hiatus, to emerge from Cocteau Twins Clone mode and into a truly satisfying, sweet and ear-pleasing groove. Rather than Cocteau Twins, their sound now is more reminiscent of Mazzy Star, Innocence Mission, later Natalie Merchant, more mellow Belly, and even Rubber Soul/Revolver-era Beatles at points. Though I really don't have any fovorite tunes on this CD (they're all great), I especialy like the slightly sad, pastel melancholy of ""Cry"" and ""Leave This City"". Overall, this album is their best effort to date."
166205,2,"Wicked Lyrics, Rich Guitar and Great Voice","Being from music starved Phoenix, AZ USA, I was introduced to Collier's music courtesy of online efforts of KEXP dot org. My music collection now includes everything that Gerald has issued~ to my knowledge. It continues to amaze me that this artist has not yet exploded into mega-stardom and purchased me a car. Colliers possesses to ability to paint vivid mental images and encourage you to drink cold beer. See also: ""Breakin' Down"" as a more readily available release. Both are must have items!"
166244,2,pure swedish death metal by way of germany,"awesome album. if you are a fan of the ""stockholm"" death metal sound (early entombed, dismember, grave, unleashed, desultory, etc.), fleshcrawl is the band for you.i enjoy most all of metal's sub genres (especially the gothenburg sound that would soon follow), but in my opinion the first wave of swedish death metal bands is one of the best (and criminally over-looked) movements in metal's history thus far. even though fleshcrawl isn't from sweden, they're one of the best examples of the style. wish there was more bands like fleshcrawl today...thick, brutal, some groove, and a slight touch of melody. and how about that guitar tone? absolutely classic."
166351,2,A must have for Hunters in the N.E or any place else !,"This book was very informative and entertaining at the same time. I could not put the book down once I started to read.A must have for the average hunter, with out the money to pay for a guided hunt. The Benoits and the author did a excellent job putting this book together. Can not say enough about how detailed they got in explaining, why they did things, how they did them, the cloths they used, the choice of guns and loads etc."
166429,2,A great little gadget.,"This is a great little gadget. Fast, light, takes up very little counter space and has a lot of flexibility. Reversible blades, etc."
166551,2,Much worth it,"I had to write a review on this product because i myself was very skeptical when i bought these cables. One because i have bought things from Amazon, that had great customer reviews and then i found that the product was in fact, not so great.I have a 50 inch Samsung 1080p plasma, and they do make a huge difference. I first tried it out on ""Smash Brothers Brawl"" and right away when i started playing the characters looked way more detailed. Granted still not in HD. Still, I was running these games on the standard composite cables that come with the system. I'm not sure if the actual ""Monster"" cables make a difference to due the fact that i have no other cables to compare to, but i can tell you that these cables will with out a doubt make your wii games much much more clear. The end."
166554,2,looks real!,received the ring today and am super happy with it! hope it stays looking as REAL looking as it does now! super sparkley and true to size :)
166566,2,good tunes,"well, if you're a follower of the genre this is the magazine for you. each issue has at least 1 interesting, well researched article on a band you've heard of. the album reviews tend to be a bit bland - hard to get candid criticism here. but the ads and listings for events are top notch, and the letters and questions sections are full of interesting historical tidbits."
166572,2,good value.,"very handy.pro:1. reasonably priced and works very well. sure is powerful.2. because the shaft base is plastic, used it right in the non-stick pots and not worry about damaging the bottom of the pot.con:1. don't drop the plastic chopper container. it can break/crack."
166692,2,This is a great 2 cycle engine and gasket sealer,When dealing with 2 equipment or sealing around carburetors it's important to understand that no all sealant is made to hold up to gasoline. Loctite 515 will hold up. I primarilly use dirko sealant but often times the locktite it a better choice as it's plyable even when cured.
166747,2,Planet Groove,I love the Planet Pop CD it definitely has a great mix of songs from ballads to dance tracks and even songs with latin flavor. It is one of the best europop albums I have heard in a long time. ATC proves talent and with their youthful energy we will be hearing a lot more from them. If you haven't yet definitely check it out!
166755,2,So far So good,"I've had this printer for about 6 weeks. I do think it's strange that it doesn't come with ink and paper but I was warned before I bought it. I do find the prink packs a little hard to find and too pricy on sony's website but the printer itself is wonderful and fairly simple. I love the quality of the photos, I think they're comparable to other regular 1 hour photo shops."
166766,2,A classic read for any pilot.,"""Get rid at the outset of the idea that the airplane is only an air-going sort of automobile. It isn't. It may sound like one and smell like one, and it may have been interior decorated to look like one; but the difference is -- it goes on wings.""Still the best way to get the fundamentals straight. In the 1930's test pilot Wolfgang noticed that the words and the realities of piloting did not seem to agree. After careful thought, he published a series of articles for Air Facts magazine that analyzed the true actions of stick and rudder. The book was released in 1944 and has been in print ever since. Some of the writing shows its age -- I don't think any flight instructor will talk about the airplane's flippers -- but the actual actions of the flight controls has not changed. If you are a pilot and you don't have this book, you need to add it to your professional bookshelf."
166911,2,"Awesome guitar work, stunning songs, beautiful harmonies, and some stupid lyrics","I've always been impressed by good three-piece bands. It's rare for a lead guitarist to have the chops to fill out the sound without a strong backing rhythm player. So when I hear Dada's 'Puzzle' album, with its solid guitar work, backed by competent bass playing and a drummer who is up to the task when guitarist Michael Gurley is really driving him, I enter a beautiful zone. The lush harmonies escalate the feeling. The songs are just amazing - even the simplest ones have the surprising changes, and the kind of structure and flow that define great songwriting. Unfortunately, the flow is interrupted periodically by the crashing intrusion of some truly awful lyrics; not that often, but often enough to keep an otherwise excellent album out of the five-star league. They were youngsters then; I'm pleased to hear they're still working together, and I'm hoping that more recent lyrics reflect some real maturity."
166921,2,Exceptional biography of Richard Wagner,"Perhaps the finest movie ever produced - but only for Wagnerians. Fantastic scenery (all shot on location in Europe) and, of course, the music - Wagner. The film assumes the viewer is familiar with Wagner's haunts and is thus of particularly value to those familiar with places where Wagner lived and worked. The film is also slanted somewhat - against Germany, and over emphasizes Wagner's anti-Semitism. Still the acting is very fine. The fact the movie did not do well in the US is a very high endorsement."
166923,2,How they do it,Take American kids and turn them into leaders. This is not the West Point you think you know. Fascinating and comforting. You will be hooked and looking to the end of the book for any info on those you meet.
166932,2,paradise lost,"though not for those with weak stomachs, by far on of the most infuriating and important films ive seen in recent years. This movie has more horror than any slasher flick, yet compassionatly shows both sides of the controverial tale. This documentary is a must see for any true crime fan, metallica fan, wiccan or anyone partial to the color black."
166934,2,great buy,I always have signal when this thing is hooked up... I was able to pick up the wifi signal from nearly 300 feet away from the router from a guest house. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because the signal fluxuates.
167004,2,My daughter loves it!,"My daughter received this toy as her first birthday prensent from her grandparents. She started to play with it from age of 15 months. She loves it! She can sit and spin by herself now (18 months) and when we have her friends come over to our home, other kids also likes to play with it. I guess kids likes to spin and spin!"
167040,2,Great Publication,"This is a sound text to guide programs aimed at reducing target audiences' life stress. Concur that it is also a sound read for the general population as well. Mr. Gordon's review misleads potential beneficiaries of this text which is filled with a plethora of evidence based and efficacious information. Though there may be some shortfalls in terms of hard science, the text does not warrant absolute discredit."
167105,2,"Good, sturdy punch bowl",I haven't used the cups yet. The punch bowl is not the most elegant but it is sturdy. I was looking for one that would last awhile and this is exactly it.
167117,2,Great plan not so great customer service,Love the unlimited plan.Unlimited minutes on data are a plus for anyone addicted to their smartphone. Too bad the customer service at the actual store is the worst I have seen for a phone company. hopefully I will continue to enjoy my plan with minimum interaction with sprint. Ahhh and the extra $10 for Non existence 4G sucks!! Amazon rocks...
167121,2,The best ever!A must have on DVD!,All I can say is that I have watched them all and none of the other versions impressed me as much as this one did. The reason why is probably George C Scott's performance. I bought this one on DVD immediately and I know this will be cherished in our family for a lot of christmases to come.
167126,2,A Christmas Carol,This is BY FAR the best Scrooge running. Very well done...I've been a fan since in came out in the 80's. Great Price too!
167201,2,Wonderful!,"As a general dentist, I usually recommend an oral, cemented appliance be placed in the mouth for up to three months to stop a finger or thumb habit. When my nearly 5 yr old son showed no progress with cessation, a friend recommended I try this product. It is without question the worst tasting product I've ever put in my mouth! Lasts for up to 3 days with one application. Does NOT wash off. My son stopped after only ONE application. Easily saves $300-$400 that one would normally pay for a habit appliance from the dentist or orthodontist. I now recommend this to all of my patients with a finger or thumb habit to prevent the malformation of the jaws and teeth that occur with the habit. Great product!!"
167207,2,I had to get used to the fact ...,"I had to get used to the fact that this product had no scent as I'm used to fruity shower gels. Once I got past that, I noticed how much smoother my skin felt after using it. I'd recommend it to friends and family; however, I think I will probably continue using my fruity shower gels. I like to start my day off smelling like apples, oranges, and bananas."
167219,2,Great books for my library.,My husband is an engineer and inventor. He loves these books. Full of great illustrations and ideas.
167225,2,works great!,"this adapter works perfectly, have never gotten kicked off or get lag. A definite necessity if you need to play wirelessly"
167372,2,Superb Quality & sound - the best money you'll spend,I can't be more pleased with these. I purchased teh Logitech ones last year but it was clunky and the plastic headphone piece soon broke. These are a little wobbly but I'm just so impressed overall and these are priceless. Give yourself a treat and enjoy!
167396,2,progressive vision,An amazing treat for those of us who grew up watching music videos and appreciating the truly great ones. This DVD proves that there is at least one director who still cares about creating the very best visual presentations of musicians' work...especially musicians at the cutting edge. You will be shocked at the amount of talent showcased on this disc. It is truly phenomenal.
167398,2,I miss Harvey,"I first heard this while at a public radio station in Alaska. I hadn't heard from Harvey Mandel in years and I was happy to see he still had it. I hope your doing well in Crested Butte, Harvey. I guess you've gone back to the blues like all the old dudes do. I'll miss your unique fusion of rock, blues and jazz."
167469,2,My co-workers noticed the difference!,"I'm late 50's with fine hair, which has been thinning. I saw Jason's shampoo at Earth Fare and decided to give it a try. I used it for the first time this morning, and I agree with other raters than it doesn't lather well and the smell leaves a lot to be desired. I found myself using more shampoo because I didn't feel the shampoo was well distributed. It rinsed very well but left my hair feeling stripped. I used a conditioner and styled my hair as usual. It looked nice but I didn't actually see any difference. However,at work today, several co-workers mentioned how much body my hair had and how great it looked.What can I say to that? I picked up the conditioner during lunch ..."
167504,2,Giggle Mask is an instant hit,"A co-worker with a 6-year-old son recommended the Giggle Mask to me when I was searching for a present for a friend's 6-year-old. It was an excellent recommendation. The Giggle Mask was an instant hit (once the adults assembled the base, as recommended.) The assembly was easy and the fun was immediate. Best, it has a volume control, so even though it's a noise-based toy, it's manageable. There are numerous small parts and no place to store them, but add a couple of zipper-style plastic bags and the problem is resolved."
167528,2,An excellent source of ideas for further research,"Dean Radin's book when combined with Richard Broughton's ""Parapsychology: The Controversial Science"" is an excellent choice for use in an Introduction to Parapsychology course. Broughton provides a more comprehensive history but Radin provides some rather exciting new concepts that are testable in an experimental/laboratory setting. This is one of the best books on scientific psychical research written in the last 20 years."
167586,2,Excellent 70's film,"I first saw this film 18 years ago and it's still as enjoyable today! Well acted and brilliant location choices.You can really feel the claustrophobia in the underground scenes. I watched it again last night on British TV and to my surprise it had a completley new start involving Cleon's girlfriend,about an extra 5 or 6 minutes that was not present on any video i'd seen.Can u dig it? I can!!"
167590,2,Gorgeous Alec Guiness,"Alec Guiness was really glowing in this gem. This is definitely among his best movies - the character is as wily as the actor, acting within acting within acting...He is so comical that it is hard to imagine this is the same actor who was George Smiley in Tinker Tailor.He was really sui generis."
167834,2,Kathlyn Williams,"The chapter on Kathlyn Williams is wrong on many issues: the year of her birth, her early life, and the name of her first husband. She was born in 1879, and her mother was born in Norway and not her father as the author states. She is listed on the 1880 Montana Census as being a year old. She was called Katie when she was little, and she attended Montana University in the late 1890s. Her father, Joseph Williams, was the parent who was of Welsh heritage. Her first husband was named Otto H. Kainer, and they married in October 1903. I have done extensive research on this actress, and I also have a copy of a New York Supreme Court document from 1905 when she sued her first husband.Otherwise, great book!"
167843,2,studying urban regions,"While the book came out in 1977, much of its discussion appears focused on events in the US in the 60s. The topics include urban redevelopment, and how to reduce racism within the inner cities. The book is directed to urban planners, offering suggestions on setting up an analytic framework to study a given city. The ""Model City"" figures prominently. This is a theoretical construct that planners can use, in which to envision suggestions for changes.Another topic is how to involve the community as deeply as possible. To get ""buy in"" by various interested stakeholders. So that they indeed perceive that they are stakeholders in proposed developments."
167856,2,A wonderful movie with sexy women,"This is an excellent movie I have ever seen in my life. This movie shows lots of women in bikinis showing their legs is which I never get enough of this movie anyhow. I know if many people would love to have this movie on video tape or the Hardbodies double feature on DVD, get the movie. Most men love women in bikinis and hardbodies. This movie is every mans biggest fantasy."
167953,2,"Hula is Great...but where ARE you, Lisa Shea?","I read Hula a few years ago, and I was looking around on Amazon to see if Shea had written anything else. Hula was such a great read that I want more from this twisted, talented author. Shea captures the story in small moments rather than lengthy, descriptive prose. The characters, especially the father (an incredibly disturbed man suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) are sometimes difficult to understand, because Shea leaves enough to the imagination to make you wonder...this is a great book for people who do not need their literature spoon-fed to them."
168005,2,"Not as good as ""Mugzy's Move""... But still good","I liked this CD, except that this wasn't as good as the previous album. Still, I think it's worth listening..."
168022,2,1982 Version of Sweeny Todd,"I first saw this musical on TV in 1982 during the Christmas season. I believe it was aired on PBS. Anyway, I found the theme unique, the songs beautiful, and the juxtaposition of the two simply stunning.I don't have this copy, but would advise anyone wanting to see the new version to revisit this one first: the staging, acting, and singing were so seamlessly done it is difficult to imagine a better version...but time will tell when the Tim Burton's film is released at Christmas!"
168047,2,Wonderful storage and seating!,"After looking at quite a few deck storage boxes I ended up with this one. It was EXTREMELY easy to assemble and a nice looking box. It looks like a nice bench, not a large cooler like some others I looked at. It is large enough for all of my seat cushions and nice looking also.And I hate when people rate a product unfairly because it was damaged in shipping. Give UPS 1 star, not the product!"
168108,2,Very solid 4 stars .,"Everybody was expecting a 10 stars hit from director Christopher Nolan in this film . As result - they was very dessapointed . I watched this film totally blank , without any expectations . As result - I loved it . No flashy scenes , no big chases . Just very solid and deep film . I gave it only 4 stars just because of the power of the director in it . You can feel how much power he has ... but holding back a little . This feeling of danger and exitment at same time . Friends ! He is about to explode ! Next one will be a killer .I didn't say anything about what this film about just because it is so many very good reviews right behind me . I don't want to repeat them . But I can tell you which moment I loved the most ... the last one :- Nobody needs to know ?!-I just need to catch some sleep...."
168145,2,"Brilliant book, by a brilliant author","Michael Nelken gives us new insights into the man whose obsessions killed millions of people and changed the world forever. It is a profound book which should be read by anyone who wants to know more about Hitler, World War II or the in depth psychology of suicide and destruction."
168184,2,An excellent miniseries,"I recently watched this again, not having seen the series for at least ten years. I, Claudius is just as good as I remember it. Nowadays this series would have been done with digital special effects which showed a rather unconvincing colliseum scene, or battle scenes, or who knows what. Instead the series relies on superb acting and dialogue to carry it and carry it it does.I, Claudius tells the story of the first Caesars, starting with Augustus, and marks the utter depravity that the dynasty slips into as the Emperors sieze more and more power for themselves, making the Roman Republic a distant memory."
168260,2,"sometimes love means having to say ""wow!""","This is super-cool music. The Aluminum Group will break your heart and move your soul. I wonder if we'll all look back and point to this album as the turning point for smart music. No, this isn't Tortoise (you can actually enjoy these songs) but it is Chicago music at its best (undefinable, smart, ground-breaking). ""Chocolates"" ""StarWish"" ""Marichinette (sp) Society"" are classics."
168261,2,The best,This is the best camcorder I have ever seen. By far the best feature on it is the NightShot which lights up the area you are filming just like a flashlight would do except if your are being filmed you can't see the light. Also the camera feature is just like having a $300 digital camera built in that is how good the digital pictures are. The Memory Stick for the camera part of the camcorder is very small but a little pricey. The only bad thing about this camcorder is the software that comes with it which makes it hard to download pictures.
168265,2,"Clever Book Design, and Useful too!","The perfect book for a beginner. As a bonus, the book itself has a fantastic design concept. It presents an example, then you can tear out a card with the pattern for that example, and when you finish, it has a pocket on the next page where you can store the card you just cut. Also, if you don't like cutting up your book, there is an order form for replacement cards. It's nice to see form follow function!!"
168306,2,Iron Man (Two-Disc Special Collectors' Edition),"I really liked the ""extras"" that came with this disc. It tells how the movie came into being. It was very interesting!!"
168410,2,Nice upgrade,"The new Xanadu DVD is a nice upgrade over the original release. The sound is far better, the picture is clearer and the widescreen is real widescreen.As this film relies upon its songs to attract viewers, the only way to see it is in real stereo with nice, rich, clean sound--and this version of the DVD delivers just that.Worth the purchase price for the Gene Kelly dance alone!"
168437,2,Hilarious and everyone will think so!,Me and my boyfriend never agree on movies too watch except when it comes to this movie. I bought the DVD and we watch it over and over all the time.
168439,2,Christmas Gift,"This item was bought as a Christmas gift. Although I cannot comment on the DVD content itself, it was delivered very quickly and in great condition!"
168474,2,Perfect crate does not exist but good trade off,"Recently purchased since this is a back up primarily for travel and because the puppy is a laid back mini aussie (I hope - time will tell). Otherwise, the metal gage would not be strong enough. I had a 36"" Titan Crate I purchased from Costco last year for another dog I fostered, and the quality was much better (sold it). I used to lay a heavy fleece pad on top of the crate and use it for storage of toys, etc., but no way on this one. The Titan is $80 (comes with nice crate pad so really about $55). That was a consideration but the number one reason I did not purchase another was because it is too heavy for me to move around by myself (twice the weight). This one is a breeze but the reviewer that said handle can break is correct - one side fits great and the other by the door is too thick so just a matter of time. Amazon does have best price for this crate in the store or online."
168510,2,Great Read,I loved the storyline and it kept me guessing the whole book. Tony Hillerman is a great writer. He make his people seem so real.
168550,2,Works Great,The Satachi 3 in 1 Car Kit for Ipod is great. It works good. We have one for each of our vehicles as well as our boat.
168564,2,"Stop managing, start coaching and OPTIMIZING!","This book is a step above most positive thinking books and is a GREAT read. It takes you past mediocrity. If you want to OPTIMIZE and stop managing, then read Optimla thinking: How To Be Your Best Self too. Optimal Thinking is the mental tool to optimize any situation, be your BEST and bring out the BEST in others. Why manage when you can optimize?"
168579,2,Fabulous Gorgeous Top Quality,The rosewood finish and size of this box is unbelievable at this price. I bought as a gift. I want one!
168599,2,Great toy for my 2 1/2 year old grandaughter,Great toy for my 2 1/2 year old grandaughter. She took to it right away. I was her favorite Christmas gift.
168767,2,The most captivating book I've read in years.,"This portrait of a young girl and her relationship with her mother was facinating. The author tells of the girl's awe and admiration for her mother yet wanting more emotionally from her. Mother's can be magical to young children. This story deals with the perceived mother and the real one. The girl is tough. Deals with situations poorly and well at times. Typical of life. Don't we all like survivor's? She is constantly sorting out the facts that are fed to her, as we all do. The author describes situations so perfectly I could put myself there. That must be what some readers didn't like. Fairy tale endings are boring and unrealistic. This book has stayed with me like very few others I've read."
168777,2,"Great, but needs to be on Blu Ray...","For those of us who grew up on this 1-season wonder, finding all the episodes collected together is a great treat. It would be great if they released this on Blu Ray with cleaned up visuals, audio and closed-captioning."
168788,2,loved it,"it definately had a taste of Catcher in the Rye...the acting was great too (Kieran Culkin is amazing)it might not be a good choice for people who want physical, laughing out loud comedy...but i definately enjoyed it..."
168856,2,Excellent system for the price,"It was very easy to put together and takes up minimum space. However, the sound is not minimal and is great for my needs. I particularly like the equalizer for both my pop and classical music. The radio, with the antenna, has great sound with little static. The cd player is great for my needs; easy to play just one cd or the entire deck.My only quibble is that it has a single cassette deck and is not auto reversible. But that's a small price for having a system with great sound.Instruction book, as most books are, could use a little ironing out but I was able to get started and if you have set up a shelf system before, this should be a breeze. If you haven't set one up before, you should have no trouble."
168897,2,Dr. Phil to the Rescue!,"He has some very interesting ideas, methods and approaches and the book is easy and interesting to read. In fact, Dr. Phil would ""turn therapy on its ear"" [my words]; his take on marriage counseling makes a lot of sense. My main reservation is with his apparent belief and insistence that EVERY relationship (except the physically abusive one) CAN BE SAVED. A bit dogmatic, though if you seek help for your relationship, this is a good place to turn to--along with a good therapist! We should remember that most couples who go for ""marriage counseling"" end up divorced, and that's not the fault of the therapist (most people really know they'll split up eventually, I think). But if both partners really want to stay together, this book will help."
168917,2,"'Amazing' isn't the only adjective in the world, you know...","Let's get this out of the way. Yes, Panic! At The Disco sounds strikingly similar to Fall Out Boy. This in no way takes away from the quality of these extremely catchy songs (much unlike An Angle's blatant ripoff of Bright Eyes' style, for example). The only downside to the album is the sometimes awkward synth parts, but they don't draw much attention to themselves and do little harm to the overall presence of ""A Fever You Can't Sweat Out"". It definitely isn't anything new or innovative, but if you're looking for a good pop record with some catchy hooks and pretty good songwriting, this album would probably be your best bet."
168948,2,A Mans Book,"I had never heard of the author or book, but the title appeared interesting. I stayed up all nite and read it until I was finished. The author appears to have first hand knowledge of bad luck & perserverance. I'd recommend that Hollywood try to buy the rights to this rather than another re-make due to their lack of creative thinking."
168979,2,Best even outside of Fiji,I lived in Fiji for three years and started using Pure Fiji products there. I fell in love with them and highly recommend the products -- especially the sugar rub and the body lotion.
168995,2,FASCINATING!,"I found this book a fascinating & riveting read. Of the two biography books of Elvis Presley by this author I think I prefered this one the best, possibly because in the second book you already knew of the ultimate ending and with each page you could see it coming. This first book was especially interesting I found because it was a social history of the American 50's as well. All credit to the author for such an incredibly well researched and thoroughly enjoyable read. I believe Elvis himself would have given this 5 stars!!"
169035,2,great for the money,"I've purchased about 5 different pair of headphones. These so far are the best of the ones I have purchased. Very comfortable, sound quality is great. Very good for using while on NYC subways to block out all the noise that tends to go on and just listen to your music.I liked them so much that when I saw them on sale for under $15, I bought a back-up pair for me and 2 more for friends. Can't go wrong for the price."
169148,2,get the big picture on the civil war,The Battle Cry of Freedom is not light reading> beginning in antebellum US and ending at Appomattox< this book delievers a readable history of the socio_political context of the Civil War> the key military turning points (ebb and flow of war) are summarized with
169153,2,Mob Wives Season 2,"Awesome! Only thing I was slightly dissapointed about was the quality of the front and back cover, I felt like the resolution was poor compared to the first season's covers."
169210,2,"Well researched, thought-provoking","A finely researched piece of history by British folklorist Goss and Titanic specialist Behe (the author of an earlier book on alleged psychic forewarnings of the Titanic tragedy). The authors go back to first-hand and contemporary sources, and in the process clear away much rubbish contributed by less careful authors. Subjects covered include The Flying Dutchman (a first-rate summary of a complex legend), the ghost of the U28 and the disappearance of the Waratah. Recommended."
169284,2,What a trip down memory lane!,"I loved Free To Be You and Me as a child and I love it now as an adult looking back. As a young girl in the 70s, Free To Be taught me that girls could be anything they want and broke stereotypes for ALL children. It taught us all that are feelings were important and singing was a cure for just about anything. I love this DVD, but I am sad that they couldn't find room for Carol Channing and some of the others on the original record (found on the cd). This DVD is a must-have!"
169358,2,Great for small personal office,"A very good printer that takes little space. At $49 I thought it was good way to get started in color printing, since I'd been using a B&W lasterjet for so many years. My husband is so impressed that he told me I could upgrade to another printer and he's take the HP 3745 for his own office. I was able to buy the USB cable at the store I bought the printer."
169383,2,Charming charm,"I bought this as a gift for a friend who swam with Manta Rays. It is a lovely, inexpensive treat for this occasion. The details are perfect."
169385,2,A definite MUST for any Verve fan!!,"This album is one of the best Verve albums ever, rivalling even Urban Hymns. To appreciate it however, I'd start with Urban Hymns and work your way down to this... it really shows how diverse and great this band really is...Which reminds me that The Verve have officially broken up, as of April 28, 1999."
169481,2,Girlfriend loves them,"Shipped quickly, they were packed nicely, girlfriend loves them and I love the beef jerky she is making with them."
169595,2,Decent compact binoculars,"I bought these in July 2012 for birdwatching. They are easy to use, and provide a fairly crisp image even at far distances. I find that I have a hard time centering my eyes on the eyepieces, though, even with the extenders. I have to hold them away from my eyes and at a bit of an angle in order to see what I'm looking at. Also, something happened to my first pair, where something came loose inside and each barrel lens was loose - one eye would look at one thing, while the other eye was focused in a different direction. I sent them back to Olympus and they sent me a brand new pair, no questions asked. I don't even know how they broke, I was using them fine one day, then the next they were wobbly. So, kudos to Olympus for a quick replacement. I have a pair of full size binoculars that are my go-to pair for serious bird watching, but when I'm hiking or otherwise more mobile, these do the trick."
169624,2,Surprisingly Good,"As others have noted, this is probably the best Dead Can Dance tribute album made so far. True, many of the covers do not deviate from the original delivery. The sound quality in these is very good, however, which was something that many fans found lacking in DCD's first album. How great it is to hear ""In Power We Entrust the Love Advocated"" sung clearly and crisply!"
169684,2,Krista's review,"This book was cartainly very interesting, and I would recomend it to anyone. It is full of suspence with a exciting twisted ending. Even though the teacher in question was pretty mean and strict, and I could identify with their dislike, it was very sad to me what happens. The author uses flash backs in this book very well, always giving the right information at the right time. Lois Duncan also is incredibly good at developing his characters. The only reason I gave it a 4 instead of a 5 is that the students deal with the problem in a very bad way, which only escalates their predicament. Anyway, I could not put the book down and I would recomend it to both readers for pleasure and for teachers to use in class."
169729,2,Cheaper on-line than the store,"D'Addario nickel wound light gauge guitar strings are well made, deliver excellent sound and cost less on-line than the music store. A reliable brand that has been around forever, comparable to Dean Markley's, and is available everywhere. My husband says if he sees D'Addario strings on the shelf next to Dean Markley strings, he will pick the D'Addario. And it's what is on his 1968 Les Paul electric and Takamine acoustic guitars right now.Uses 75% less packaging, the set is now more environmentally friendly."
169756,2,Read again and again,This is a book that I have given to many people. The fear that I see and hear every day is astounding. This book is a comfort to those who read it and I never get it back. I purchased this book for me but know I will give it away again.
169766,2,No more Questions,I absolutely love this book!! It answered so many questions for me and put to rest theories of my youth. I feel so strongly about this book that I have recommened it to every female I know. I used FAM to achieve pregnancy and concieved within 3 months. Everyone I have recommened it to who was trying to concieve did so.
169778,2,Rosalinda is a great serial,"I think that rosalinda is a very great serial, because it is about something romantic and something you love."
169792,2,Excellent sealed cans,"I'll be honest here, the fit was a little tighter than I am used to and took me a couple of weeks to get used to. I was very impressed by the amount of noice they block out, even when no music is being played. I feel I am listening to a very clean version of the music with little outside disturbances and noise.The long cord, high quality jack adapter, and adjustability of the head phones are among the perks that add to the enjoyment of the product.The (only) downside was the plastic head band which develops cracks and then falls apart. Mine lasted 2 years and 4 months before I started to notice cracking and then a matter of months before parts started to fall off.I most likely will purchase another pair as I had over two great years and have not found their equal in a sealed can. But if they would simply make the band of spring steel, I'd pay double for a then perfect set of sealed cans!"
169800,2,Just when I thought I was stuck with the Sonys,"For many years, I used the Sony MD7506 for live sound mixing and DJ gigs (I'm an amatuer, not a pro). They held up well but I would never want to listen to them for pleasure. A friend loaned me his HD280 Sennheiser phones and the light bulb went on! These sound great for all types of music, do not have the hyped bass of the Sonys, and are even better in isolating background noise. Now, I take these to the gigs on weekends, and bring them home to listen to the latest vinyl cuts just for fun. And when I'm assembling my mix tapes, these help me hear what's going on. Lots of detail but not hyped. They are made of plastic, but they're very light weight and seem totally solid. Highly reccommended!Bottom line: I put my Sonys on Ebay and bought the HD280s."
169975,2,High quality,"Well made, wanted to extend my wireless keyboard and mouse range. Ran this from basement towards the ceiling and now can connect my devices to the basement htpc without a problem. Even added a USB hub at the end to add both the dongles for keyboard and mouse. Excellent buy!!"
169996,2,"A bit boring at first, but a real page -turner later!","Caught in the middle of war. That's a pretty good discription of Mary's situation. Mary's Father is a die heart Tory,(he's loyal to the king of England, that is) witch poses a problem, seeing as her 18 year old brother, William, is a Patriot. On the night of the Peal's ball, which they have been preparing for since page one, Mary discovers an unexpected suprise in the shed... This story deals with alot of emotional subjects: :loyalty, family pride, the deep love of sister for brother, and, no matter how stubborn both might be, father for son. I thought what Mary's father did near the end was great. It brings to mind the old phrase: Actions Speak Louder Then Words. My love of history made me want to try this, and I'm very glad I did.I Loved this book!!!!"
170002,2,A Great CD.,"I've long admired Split Enz/Crowded House/Neil + Tim Finn, and it's hard to pick one cd to review without reviewing them all. Temple of Low Men is a classic. Of the four Crowded House cds this one has 10 solid tracks with no filler and no excess. Their debut is great, but I think Temple of Low Men moved Crowded House out of the pop spotlight and into a more mature band. The debut is a rougher, less honed effort than Temple is. Temple is also better than Woodface in that it's shorter and more consistent. It's also better than Together Alone for the same reasons--shorter, more consistent songcraft. All of Crowded Houses cds are great, but Temple of Low Men with songs like ""Into Temptation"", ""I Feel Possessed"", ""When You Come"", ""Kill Eye"", ""Better Be Home Soon"", ""Love This Life"", ""Mansion in the Slums"", ""Never Be the Same"" and ""Sister Madly"" show that they can make a classic cd. This is a must have for any rock collector."
170042,2,stainless steel tongue sweeper,We love them. Until we ordered these we were using plastic tongue scrapers and what a difference! We will never go back to any other tongue scraper again. They are easy to clean and light weight. They aren't sharp at all. They are the perfect shape to do the job.
170059,2,Good show!,Very informing! I love to watch people's physical transformations. It makes me get up and moving. I have recommended this movie to several people!
170096,2,RED EYE,"cool flick with some tension and suspense, wes craven directed this?? best film he's done in a long time"
170131,2,Good book and series -- and comparable series,"""Midshipman Bolitho"" is an excellent and early example of this genre. Bolitho is interesting and by starting earlier than C.S. Forrester or Patrick O'Brian the author provides a different perpective. As with many in this genre, Kent convincingly portrays not only the strategic and tactical aspects of the war, but also the ship construction/handling challenges. ""Les Miserables"" its not, but Kent also explores the society of the time and develops a number of interesting and and sympathetic characters. The series maintains its quality over the next 18 or so books. Those interested in discovering other, comparable series should pursue: C.S. Forrester, Patrick O'Brian, Richard Woodman, Dewey Lambdin or James Nelson. Other, harder-to-locate series for the addicts are from Dudley Pope, Porter Hill, Victor Suthren or Frank Eccles. I would welcome information about other similar series -- also other naval eras, army fiction, or merchant marine."
170173,2,DId what I expected,"All in all, this product did what I wanted it to do: smoothed out my hair and cut back on styling time. I have very very thick long hair, it is not super curly but I have a nice natural wave. This product did NOT eliminate my wave, it only took out a little of my natural curl. I also have colored hair and it didn't affect my color (dark brown with red highlights and low lights). It cut back on styling time immensely for me which is why I really like it. When I now blow-dry/ flat iron my hair it's sleeker, shiner, and less wavy. After flat-ironing my hair it now straightens much easier and feels amazingly soft, less heavy, and keeps it's style. The only bad thing about this product is the time it takes to process. The entire process took me 4 hours and I could not stand keeping the product in my hair for 48 hours so I washed it out after 24 hours. This may have affected my results a bit, but I am still pleased with my results for the price."
170220,2,Tuck Everlasting,Tuck everlasting is very serious. Miles was more serious in the movie then in the book. The movie felt shorter then the book. The movie didn't have as much detail in it. The movie was more romantic then the book. Like when Jesse and Winnie running in the field and when Jesse convinced Winnie to come swimming when Jesse got Winnie climbing his Eiffel tower. There is more action then the book. In the book tuck is the one that is more serious.There are a lot of cool colors and cool sound effect's. I liked it when there was fog and there was a train and Jesse and miles was running from the man in the yellow suit. Some part's like when Jesse and miles are dressed up and Winnie saved Mae and tuck and then there was part's that dragged like when the grandmother die's. It's a good move so go and watch it.
170233,2,"Recipes are very involved, but great book","After watching the recent movie about Julie Child, I felt compelled to get this book. It is not exactly a quick recipe guide, in fact the recipes are rather involved and challenging. I am enjoying the few items I have made from the book and hope you do to."
170246,2,This Product is Well Worth the Money!,"This product is well worth the money. I love it! Bought it 6 months ago and has worked perfectly. The programming took me a few minutes to get the hang of it, but as long as you read the directions, the set-up can be done in just a few minutes. Once programmed, it does it's thing. Feeds my cat 3 times a day and he no longer wakes me up at 5 am for his breakfast. Been working on the same batteries for 6 months now, and still haven't had to change them. I am very pleased with this feeder and would recommend it to anyone!!!"
170413,2,A Vital Step To Any Shave,"I started DE shaving about 2 months ago and thought I had it all down but after reading several forums on the subject, I realized I was missing a vital step in the shaving experience.The alum block is simple amazing and is one of favorite things about DE shaving. It tones the skin, leaves your face feeling very comfortable, gives you feedback on some spots that you might've been a little to rough on, and stops slight nicks from bleeding although I still keep a styptic pencil in my medicine cabinet just in case.The block should last you quite a while but I plan on ordering another one soon just to have it waiting in the wings seeing as I don't think I can bring myself to shave without it.Great buy."
170429,2,Tasty!,"Almond takes a wonderful journey through the many candy corporations in America. As always, Almond delivers the goods with great humor and literary excellence. You get not only a first hand account of some the inner workings of these candy factories, but you have it presented beautifully, in Almond's own special way.He takes the reader to the more sublime makers, everything from Necco (been a while since you had a Mary Jane?) to the Idaho Candy Company who makes something called an Idaho Spud. The book will find appeal with readers of literature as well as those of us who jones for a little extra sugar in our diet. Excellent read and worth adding to your collection, especially for anyone who enjoyed MY LIFE IN HEAVY METAL."
170506,2,My favorite grooming tool.,"We have 3 Aussies. Two with show coats. One has really long hair, at least 8"" long. I use this tool all the time, I also bought a furminator and I didn't like it. The furminator almost seems like it is cutting the coat not just pulling out lose hair. This is a must have tool for long haired dogs."
170528,2,Best iron supplement ever,"I have big problems with nutrient absorption. At one point I was on tablet iron 6x/day. Nothing could bring my iron levels up. Someone recommended Floradix and this has been a lifesaver. Within a month my iron rose more than it did in the previous 6 months. I recommend this product to anyone with mild to.severe anemia. The taste is not as terrible as i expected, and can easily be washed down with a shot of OJ. I take this on a daily basis."
170571,2,The Seven Chinese Brothers,"YO! If I had even one brother like these seven, I could'a ruled Philadelphia! Great story!"
170723,2,"""Baby chicks are singing...""","What a sweet book. This would be a great way to announce the excitement of a new baby! The animals are very cute. Personally, not as exciting as some of the other books of it's kind. Still a great book to have in your collection."
170744,2,great book for little boys and girls.,"I remember my grandma and papa reading this book to me when I was about 3. I'd have them read it cover to cover and start all over again. And to see that it's still in print just makes my day. There are reviews on here saying the story is pointless or too violent. But lets face it. A 3 year old isn't worried about the fact that the happy man in the truck is dumping animals out. They're interested in the fact that the happy man gave the animals a ride and they all got to slide out the back a like a little kid would slide at the park. -they do still have slides in the park, right? Get this book for your little boy or girl. They will like the illistrations and the story about the happy man and his truck.Other oldies but goodies are:A big ball of stringStop that ballHop on popA fly went by."
170765,2,Works Well,"I really like this product. Unlike other dog/bike leashes it doesn't hang way off the bike, allowing me to easily ride without my dog. It doesn't have a ""safety"" release like the others, but I like that. I'd rather clothesline my dog around a pole - you can stop a bike pretty quickly - then have the release give way and my dog run into traffic.Nala, my border collie, loves going for bike runs. She gets so much better exercise in a fraction of the time of walking. The leash can handle pulls easily. You'll feel them but it won't effect your balance on the bike. I highly recommend the product. The only negative is the lack of instructions. I figured it out pretty quickly, but I shouldn't have to."
170817,2,Awesome!,This book teaches you alot about how blacks were treated back in the day. When Jackie Robinsion was signed to the Dodgers the fans and players treated him really badly. People threw stuff at him. Then a young teammate stood up for him and saved him from being ban from the team. So you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover.
170845,2,Great product!,"Copied from my review of this product under the 6 box version.I did not like the 1 star review as I beleive it to be grosly unfair.__I had a 4 cylinder car with major leaks in the head gasket (Water present in 2 cylinders), and were looking at a 2500$ repair. The car would use 1 quart of radiator fluid per 5 miles and overheat in the process.I tried some expensive stuff called Steel Seal that was mixed in the radiator fluid and claimed to work. Though it did partially work - the car would tripple its range to 15 miles it was still a junker. 8$ worth of KW has the car running properly every day for 9 months - though my trust level is low.I can recommend the use of this product - just make sure you flush the system as any anti freeze left will bond and clog your system.____After long use the K&W; sealer does not do the job fully, and I need a new shot. 8$ and 1 hour work per year is not bad though.Still recommend it fully."
170847,2,"Beautifully Illustrated, Wonderful Detail","Just enough information for those in search of a better understanding of the human body. Sections of the book are broken down into the different organ systems, their many functions and processes. Several implications are described and detailed with full color graphics. I especially appreciate the book's symptoms table, which allows you to identify symptom characteristics, associated symptoms, other relevant factors, and advises on possible causes and actions. This book has a sturdy structure that will stand up to the test of time. It is constucted of high quality paper, cardstock, and has a short thick stature. A must have reference for those in the health industry or interested in anatomy."
170873,2,Love the series!,"Wonderful stories with the right amount of humor, action, adventure and romance. Perfect for all ages. Gorgeous artwork!"
170971,2,A really refreshing book,"Although this was a book about belief, it never forced any view or opinion on the reader. The writing was impeccable, and the chapter divisions were easy to understand. Most of all, it was inspiring. Living in the Bible Belt, this was a book that made me feel hopeful about the state of the world, even in the midst of so much prejudice and fanaticism. Wonderful, wonderful book! I recommend it wholeheartedly."
170996,2,"Not as hard as expected, but an okay game","I rated OOT four stars, and hoped that this would be worth five. It could've gotten it if it weren't for the save feature. I have to complete puzzles over and over again. Aside from that, its a cool game.Its not an amazing game, but the graphics are great. Half the characters in this game annoy me .... Thats a bad thing. The plot [is not very good], but who cares, its a video game. A lot of optional stuff (giants wallet, etc.) in OOT is a requirement in this game, so its harder, but not much. The music is awesome, better than any other game. Rent it first, then buy, it really depends what kind of gamer you are."
171026,2,Great book!,This is a book that will take you to the next level of your faith. I have purchased so many of these over the years and given them away. This is an amazing book. Take it slow. It's a small book but there is a lot packed in. I read two or three pages at a time and then put it away and meditate on the message for a day or two. It will change your approach to your faith and how you move through life with God. This will deepen your relationship with God!
171069,2,The Italian Fiddler at His Best,"I can't overstate the importance of these contemporary recordings of Italian music by Italian bands. It may be cliched to say that it takes an Italian to properly perform Italian music, but in this case it certainly seems to be the case. The sense of drama is so effective: the facility with which this group can drop from fortissimo to pianissimo, the timing of dramatic pauses, the variation in articulation, etc. There is a very advanced and improvisatory approach to ornamentation and vibrato (a much more liberal, but yet tasteful use of the latter than is found in the Northern-European recordings of this music). This is really the showcase album for Europa Galante's leader Fabio Biondi and his terrifying virtuosity and artistry. The only thing more terrifying than this intense and ferocious music is when it is placed in the hands of fiddler with such great music taste and control."
171105,2,Crafty TV Writing,"Very informative, very easy-to-understand. Good starting point for young writers trying to get a glimpse into the TV writing process."
171124,2,Next disc???,"Hey John, you need to catch Sue live in person (grrrreat!). 1 - Love Comin' Down 2 - Back To The Blues 3 - Big City Blues. Cheers!"
171180,2,Outstanding. You've Got To Read This.,"One of the best books on marketing and sales. After reading and absorbing the material in Mr. Silverman's book you'll be better at spotting opportunities, identifying problems and discovering the most effective solutions. In addition to the wealth of wisdom you'll find an entertaining and easy to read book. No fluff, no padding, just solid information you can bank on. Certainly worth the investment!"
171202,2,"Great, Not Perfect","Like all of the other reviews, these headphones have no shortage of bass, and don't distort when the volume's blasted either. It does sound muddy if you don't have the EQ on some sort of bass reducer/treble booster setting though. The in ear design doubles as an earplug, and when I'm mowing the lawn with these in, you can barely hear the mower, just music.I would like it to have a retractable cable mechanism as this would keep some cable out of the way if you had an iPod armband, or all of the cable out of the way (and tangle free!) if it was in your pocket or you were transporting it."
171203,2,good headphones,These are my second pair of these headphones. They are the best fitting ear buds I've ever had. The last pair I had lasted me 2 years through a lot of wear and use. The high bass freq is great for commuters on trains and subways. You don't have to pump the volume to cut through the rumble of a train! I highly recommend them.
171232,2,It Does Improve Your Tone,"I was skeptical of getting this cable at first, I thought that a cable was a cable and it didn't really matter to much what you use. I was wrong. Upon opening the package, you can feel the quality of this cable, it is thicker, stronger, and better looking than any other bass cable I have seen. When I plugged it in, I immediately noticed that my bass sounded better. It sounder fuller, and more bassy. The cable doesn't change your tone, it makes whatever tone you use sound better. Even my tone deaf dad said that the cable ""makes it sound a little better"", I say it makes it sound a lot better. While it is a bit on the expensive side, it is worth the money. The life time warranty is definitely a positive aspect.A final note, this is the exact specifications that I got, the 21 foot, one angled and one straight. You may need a different combination, but whatever you get, this great cable will not disappoint."
171294,2,Later came into the news bigtime,"This Jewish author is so very even-handed. You will go with this side and then with the other side and then switch again and again. Things are not completely as they seem and you go on a journey of immersion in 2 cultures, only one prevailing. Years after the book, one of the main participants was involved in a huge federal scam and made national papers for years afterwards. Fascinating and well-written book."
171445,2,The truth be told,"I read Godin whenever I can and he is a little whacky and so am I so I guess that is why I like him. But this one is really good. He develops the point that marketing is lieing and then takes you on a journey where that makes sense and what you can do about it. I think he is on to something with all his work and look forward to whatever he writes. Good read, provocative and challenging and lots of nuggets there for those who look."
171470,2,Small and QUIET,"I have tried various fitness products over the years, and they all wind up in the thrift store. This one, however, I actually use, and my usage increases every day. The only reason I can think of is that it is so quiet. I always hated the noise made by most walkers, bikes, etc. This device is very simple, but effective. It is also small and relatively light (although it is certainly sturdy). So it fits in anywhere. The only negative is that there is no good place to prop up a book while you are walking. I can't imagine why the makers of these machines don't make that a priority. I would give it 5 stars in a minute if it had that."
171556,2,A very funny look at the trials of first grade,"The title of this book put me off a bit but my first grader absolutely loved it. After I picked it up, I could see why. It is a terrifically funny, endearing look at the first day of first grade. A surefire winner among kids in the 5-6 age range."
171628,2,Very Quiet . . . Very Effective!,"When I first opened the box I was a bit skeptical whether this unit would do the job...I expected a much larger unit. Set it up and powered it on, then had to check to make sure it was on!!! QUIET!!! Being a smoker, I can not tell whether a room smells of cigarette smoke. But when a friend asks if I stopped smoking since he could smell no odor in the room, I knew that this purifier was doing its job. Nice design, too!"
171703,2,Truly Classic.,"What a find this DVD is. I had never seen any of these performances before. Frank's two duets with Ella are perfection. Other great duets feature Louis Armstrong, Dinah Shore and Dean Martin. There's insightful commentary by Frank's three children also. The picture and sound are quite good for the age of the source material. This DVD is a must have for all Sinatraphiles."
171747,2,Good Job Viz,"I usually don't make a point to review an item unless I feel really strongly about it. However, with this release I felt it necessary to say how impressed I was with Viz's packaging. Not only did they add in the little extras that the Japanese releases like to sneak in at the end of the credits, they also included one of the nicer VA featurettes I've seen, staring Malie Flanagan-Naruto, Kate Higgins-Sakura, Dave Whittenberg-Kashshi and Mary Elizabeth McGlynn-veteran VA and director. The chibi Naruto that was packaged with the Special Edition was very cute too... now give us a Kakashi and Itachi! OK, and besides all of that, Naruto Shippuden is a much better, more in depth and mature story than it's predecessor. Highly recommended to anyone hesitant because of the (bad) filler laden Nartuo (first series)."
171815,2,Another Thriller!,"Brad Thor's second book was another thriller.In this book your hero is once again Scot Harvath.After his rescue of the President Harvath starts tracking down the remaining members ofthe kidnapping team.The remaining members get killed off by askilled killer. All signs point to Hashim Nidal son of Abu Nidal.This terrorist is trying to provoke a war between Israel and the Arab world.The chase for Nidal is fast paced and covers Chicago,Libya,Capri,and Rome.Pay close attention to the silver eyed assassin. This is an action packed book that you will enjoy reading. The ending of the story is also vey exciting. Buy this book. You will enjoy it."
171827,2,the best of mechanic manyeruke,this is the best album ever released by mechanic and i like it cause it tells a story and reminds me of a lot of things we face in life and that the lord is great
171904,2,Switch it up a bit,"I'm just starting to add Reggaeton to my playlist. I like it on the radio, but the style of the CD seemed to get old after the first half dozen. Too hard all the way through. Would have been nicer if it was broken up with some soft or smoother stuff here and there. I liked about 3 or 4 of the songs on the album. Go Ivy Queen!"
171937,2,Book makes Gàidhlig fun and interesting,"I bought this book after seeing it in a store, and I just had to get it. What makes learning Gaelic fun from this book, is that there are cartoons to illistrate what the characters are doing and saying. Plus, there is a grammar section at the end of each chapter, or each set of cartoons. And, there is a minidictionary and grammar section at the back.This is the perfect book for those who just want to see what the language is like and for those who do not want to be burdened with grammar lesson after grammar lesson."
171947,2,Great Product!,I have been taking these for about three weeks and feel better than ever! I am over 40 and regularly mountain bike for exercise. I do not have anymore aches or pains that would normally come with this type of activity. I highly recommend this for all.Thanks!
171999,2,Works great,The first time I saw this machine I thought who would be dumb enough to buy one of these? I guess I was that dumb for waiting so long. The wife and I love a good margarita at the resturant and this machine is just as good as the ones they use. She likes the frozen ones and I like the icee ones (rocks and some crushed). This machine shaves the ice not just crushing it some like the blender.
172086,2,The ultimate book for Italian food lovers,"This book belongs on every Italian gourmet's shelf. The recipes include some of the most beloved Italian dishes, all delicious and easy. The recipes are clearly written and easy to understand and many ingredients are commonly found in most kitchens.This is for anyone who appreciates and wants to experience authentic Italian cooking without spending a lot of time. With 120 recipes to choose from, variety poses no problem."
172101,2,Sweet as Ever,"The only reason I did not give a 5 star rating to this CD is that nothing will compare with the fabulous Smith Sisters' 1984 LP album, ""Bluebird."" Until they release ""Bluebird"" on CD, I must be content to listen to ""A Canary's Song."""
172145,2,Nice little tool!,"I've owned one of these for years and, yes, they're made in China. All Buck products that I own are made there...in the Buck factory and over seen by Buck personel for quality control. I know because I called the Buck Company and talked to them. I bought mine directly from the Buck Knife Company and it came out of the box pretty sharp, however I did touch it up with a file to make it a bit sharper. The one I have is very similar to the one in the picture and is a ""backpacking model with a hollow plastic handle that can really take it! So if you like Buck products like I do then this just might be the hand ax for you!"
172160,2,Enchanting children's book,"I like reading this book. I like saying ""Ten Nine Eight by Molly Bang"" as we start. What a name the author has, and what a talent for making a simple book so engaging! The illustrations are comforting, with a continuity from page to page that is a nice touch. Also, since the father and daughter are African-American, this book brings a welcome diversity to the home library."
172198,2,Comfortable but thin,"Pretty good. Although they're very comfortable (esp. thru seat and thighs), the material is a bit flimsier than I'd like. If it were an ounce or two heavier, the trousers would be perfect."
172323,2,Works well,"I'm not sure what the others were complaining about. Maybe because I got this for free during my first year teacher orientation, I think it's pretty great. I'm 5'10"" and have no problems wheeling this around. I've had it now for 5 months and it's still in holding up. I like that it folds up and can be stored away until it's needed. Overall, I'm pretty happy with this item."
172342,2,jazz classic.,"okay, all you yayhoos out there; want some great late night listening? something to relax and edify? well, put away all your new age cds, shuck old yanni in the trash bin, and pick up miles davis's bitches brew. no law says laid-back music can't be powerful and soulful. so here it is: just such music. miles trumpet displays a calm, beautiful and mysterious tone throughout this masterpiece. unconventional jazz to be sure, but accessible to anyone's ears. the great john mclaughlin adds fantastic touches of guitar to the recording, and other master musicians on board are: wayne shorter, chick corea, dave holland, and jack dejohnette. after you get this album and find out how much you love it (which you certainly will if there is a modicum of sanity about you), be sure to pick up ""in a silent way,"" too. another classic miles album with a very similar vibe to bitches brew. happy listening."
172354,2,masterpiece,"every page was full of wisdom. I love how he ended the book by saying the bible is fact, not fiction. throughout the book, he made his faith subtle but at the last page, he made it clear that he's a christian, a wise christian. God blessed this book."
172415,2,Just the Funniest Cartoon Feature Ever,"This was a different direction for Disney in that it's not a musical, and it's a throwback to the silly cartoons of the fifties. The story, the voice actors, and the style/design all work.I laugh every time I watch this movie. The villain trying to poison the emperor, the henchman humming his own theme music, the chipmunk, the scene at the restaurant.... It doesn't stop.If you're a fan of classic/retro animation or just enjoy a big laugh, you'll love this."
172457,2,"Brilliance, sheer brilliance............","They have regained the agressiveness and passion of their first album. Better than Evil Empire, not as good as the self-titled. I can't wait till they come to Atlanta! Rage is probably the best band around right now."
172502,2,An understanding of God like you've never heard before,"The author admits he should have titled this : Sex/ God. it is not a book about a god of sex! Rev Bell explains that God wants to be close to us, as a lover is close to us. Some say marriage is an example of the love God has for humans or the love God has for HIs church; this is following that line of thought. This book is something one might decide to read a few pages out of curiosity, and then we find it is very thought-provoking in a good way."
172507,2,Sex God,"Great book, highly recommend it to anyone. Rob Bell is a genius who writes in a way that everyone can understand"
172597,2,A great Matlab book,"This book was a requirement for my pre-engineering class at Ohio State. Since I am an adult learner with an extensive learning background, I can really appreciate the way the book is laid out. Rather than relying heavily on theory, the book uses real-world engineering examples that spans disciplines for a well-rounded set of example problems. I would only ding the book a half-star because of typographical errors in some of the problems."
172728,2,Jennifer Weiner is always a good read,"I purchased the Kindle verstion of Good in Bed. I kept seeing it on the shelves at bookstores, but never picked it up. So I am about 8 years behind the times. This book is a little bit dated, but still holds up. I really enjoyed the storyline and found it to be very relatable."
172758,2,The keeper of the bees by Gene Stratton Porter,"This is a heartwarming story, well written, which helps to restore one's belief that people can be upright and supportive of one another, underpinned by a faith in God."
172818,2,"Sog ,What a knife!!!","This is my first folding knife. so far only three total.What I am finding out each knife (different brands) has its pros and cons.I think this is my favorite knife, I really like the Sat (Spring assisted) I go around flipping it all day its addictingIn my opinion Sat knifes take some grit to get them started with opening them. once the spring comes into playThey open fast. My benchmade manual is easier to open(this from a woman) than the SOG, but the sog is faster.This knife has some play when locked in place hardly noticable, can easily be adjusted.All in all Sog makes good knifes and they are resonably priced. I am sure the SOG can do any task you can think of.Amazon shipping Superb as usual!!!!"
172874,2,Great ideas bu some seem out of line with ages,Creative resources has a lot of great ideas for educational activities with young kids. My only complaint is that some of the activities seem a little too advanced for the ages listed.
172877,2,An Intriguing Thriller,"I listened to the unabridged version of this book on tape and found it to be incredibly entertaining. It is long (17 hours on tape) but if you have some time to kill, its definitely worth a go. Although the big secret isn't all that hard to guess and the book does drag a bit in the last third its tremendously enjoyable, in a guilty pleasure sort of way. I forsee this becoming a better than average summer popcorn movie--some of the characters even seem to have been written with big time stars in mind (Harrisson Ford, Danny DeVito, Jodie Foster perhaps). At any rate this is perfect fare for a lengthy week at the beach or a long drive."
172882,2,Two Types Of Stanley Black,"There's Stanley Black the Orchestra Leader and Arranger then there's Stanley Black the performer, pianist extrodinaire and his jazz band or should I say the West-Indian contemporary Jazz Band. If you love contempary music Stanley Black arrangements and his piano playing are some of the best. You can tell from this that Black loved the small club setting with a 4 or 5 piece group."
172886,2,LOL! Music Horror Is Funny And Real - And Told Like It Is!,"I was laughing my assets off!I was in the music business for about two years, and these stories really capture the grit. Anyone who thinks the business runs on ART and that anyone in it is an instant millionaire, has been reading WAY TOO MUCH of the fodder from the promo department!This book is the most fun I've had with music since taking piano lessons at 12 from a beautiful older woman of 18 -- but that's ANOTHER Horror Story -- which is GREAT, as this book invites you to ENTER YOUR OWN STORY at the end! PERFECT -- I only hope I am not limited to one.J. Berry"
172974,2,Equal Opportunity,"I guess it is a hangover from my own mother, but I tend to prefer comics that do not use a great deal of profanity in their shows. That preference goes out the window where Ned ""Carlos"" Mencia is concerned. Carlos is a foul mouthed, equal opportunity racist. He has an opinion on everyone - and his expletive filled rants are the stuff of legend. Potty mouth aside - Carlos is not afraid to say what the rest of us are thinking. I still wince every time a comic uses awful language. It does not stop me from putting Carlos on if I need to laugh at someone that truly says what they are thinking........"
173004,2,Explosive,"Suffer, Bad Religion's first release following their 4 year (?) hiatus, it charges out of the gate as strong as you'd expect it to be. Greg came out with stormy lyrics involving mostly politics, mankind, and religion. I gave it 5 stars due to its smart lyrics, and smartass guitars. If you are a fan of Minor Threat, Black Flag, and other 80's punk, check out this album. Standout tracks are 1000 More Fools, When?, Give You Nothing, Suffer, and Do What You Want."
173007,2,Great episod!,"This is another great episod. Teaches ABC with the book ""Chika-Chika boon boon ABC"" story. My children love this ""Chika Chika boon boon!Good to recognized Alphabet"
173020,2,love the whole series,"Some of the books are better than others but none of them are worth passing up. I honestly can't understand some of the complaints about the writing or characters in the books. This isn't hemingway folks. For what these books are, you really can't get any better."
173032,2,Good Reco[es,I have only had time to try a few of the recipes but all have turned out good and are very tasty. I feel the book was well worth the money.
173042,2,"Great stuff, great price",This product is great. I add it to baked goods and oatmeal. Buying by the case is a great deal and I find I use it more frequently.
173054,2,"not the best, but good.","This was my second Bad Religion CD. I was hoping for the same kind of songs as ""Stranger than Fiction"", and got something a little worse, but still awsome songs. The only real problem is the length of each song-there isn't one song above 3 minutes. Definately buy it, but go with ""Stranger than Fiction"" first."
173096,2,"Not the best, but up there.","Ribbed is one of NOFX's eariler releases, and it was the album that broke through. The album has some great songs on it. I can only think of perhaps two are three that are only above average, not spectacular like the rest! All in all, it beats anything by your new so-called punk bands. Get this album, see if you can score a copy of the limited yellow vinyl pressing!"
173138,2,An inspirational journey,"I thought Eat Pray Love was a beautiful story of one woman's courage to discover her soul's purpose. It was both comforting and exciting to read, however, the downside to it was that many women can not imagine that the fairytale outcome of Elizabeth Gilbert's life could ever happen to them. The spiritual journey is frought with heart ache and pain usually, as it takes years of counseling, and spiritual practice to heal old habits and to discover who you truly are as a spiritual being. Consider the following read as one that you will connect with if it has taken you years of work to Heal Your Life.Oh...For the Love of God: A Tell All Story of a Woman's Journey Toward Self-Discovery"
173185,2,Good read,"This is definitely a good read for those of us who haven't been through a mid-life crisis but would like to consider it. What would it be like to divorce, quit your job, take a break from the hectic world we all know, travel and consider God? Not only an enjoyable read but thought-provoking as well. I'm definitely going to visit Italy now."
173186,2,Stole from my Mom,I stole this book from my mom. And I'm so glad I did. I want to take the same trip that she did really really really bad
173214,2,eat pray love book review,"I received the ""eat pray love"" used paperback book in great shape, and within 6 days.The book itself was very readable and enjoyable!! This story is autobiographical and covers mainly 12 months in the author's life as she travels to 3 specific countries (Italy, India, and Indonesia), and searches for some understanding and balance in her life following a very rocky divorce and some bad decisions, etc.The author is very self-centered initially, but she slowly becomes less so as the book marches on. While she never looses that characteristic completely, she does progress and improve in her tolerance for seeing and meeting others needs besides her own. The book is loaded with cleverness, pathos, humor, some sadness, heart-jerking love stories, and many, many quotable lines.I read it for a Literati Book Club that I recently joined.Plat"
173308,2,"Good, But could be better","This camera works fairly well. I wish it had a little better image. You can see cars real clear, but not the licence plate. I guess you get what you pay for if you try to go cheaper. The camera seems to be really durable and is nice and small. And it is extremly easy to hook up. It does't seem to interfere with our cordless phone, I was worried that it would. The longest distance that I could get it to work was probably about 100 feet. The Night vision isn't something to get all excited about. It does pick up reflective objects really well though. It's a good camera and all, but I wish I spent a little more money to be able to read the licence plate on a car."
173325,2,nice introductory text,I think that Wayne Daniel's book is a fairly comprehensive introductory book in biostatistics. I don't agree with the review who thinks it must be used in a second course rather than a first. Thomas Jefferson University uses it as a first text in biostatistics for their nursing students. I wouldn't mind using it in a first course if I didn't have my own text to use.
173331,2,It Does the Job,"Good basic sweatband. Shipping was fast and the sweatband does exactly what I bought it for - to keep the sweat out of my eyes while running. It's old fashioned and I look like I'm from the 70s when I wear it, but as long as my eyes don't sting I'm OK. Recommended!"
173337,2,DELLA is Delightful!,"What a fascinating and refreshing character! Della is a delicious blend of sophistication and vulnerability. She is so incredibly real that the reader can't help but embrace her and cheer her on through her struggles. I gloried in her successes and suffered through her failures. Glitzy and glamourous to be sure, but this novel also has the warmth and humanity that sets it a cut above. Encore! Encore!"
173361,2,Awesome!,I love their music and this CD does not disappoint! Recommended! I'm not sure what the difference is in expanded versus regular edition - this is the only one I had. Loved it.
173373,2,A Fascinating Glimpse of Ancient Warfare,"Julius Caesar's self-promoting memoirs of his time as a Roman general in Gaul are a surprisingly interesting read. While it is a bit hard to keep track of the shifting alliances between the many Gallic tribes, Caesar describes Roman battlefield maneuvers, siege warfare, and diplomacy in a clear, readable manner. I felt that the subtext of the book was ""I, Julius Caesar, am an awesome general and savvy diplomat. I always displays great reason and mercy but am not afraid to punish treachery."" Nevertheless, it is a fascinating look at warfare in the ancient world."
173439,2,YAHOOO!!!,"Like the other pre-reviewers here, I have been waiting for this for years. I agree that St. Elsewhere was the best American TV series ever. I also hope that the music rights issue has been resolved satisfactorily. The only reason I am pre-rating this four stars instead of five is that I felt the show really didn't hit its stride until the second season--but the first season was still very, very good and the whole series is a must-see for any fan of quality TV."
173523,2,Cute book!,"I picked this book off a shelf in my house (we practically have our own library) and read it in a few hours' time. Cute novel and great characters, especially Miss Pointy. Makes me feel a little more at ease about being a little crazy as a teacher."
173552,2,Awesome Z-5500,I purchased the Z-5500 from Amazon for $239 which is a steal. I have a Klipsch Promedia which I paid $400 3 years ago. There is no comparison. It is easy to set up and performs amazing with my Audigy sound card. I set it on Stereo 2 and my center speaker even works.The remote handles everything. It is the best investment I ever made in speakers. GW
173630,2,"cute, but predicatable","I thought the best part of this book was the characters. Someone wanting a 'hard to figure out thriller' will be disappointed. I gave it four stars not for the plot but, strictly because of the characters."
173653,2,Great for inside growing!,I have orchids growing inside and use this for lighting. I liked it so much I bought another one! I received it quickly too!
173815,2,Love the bight LED Lights,Works great. Much brighter that other led sensor lights. Lasts about two minutes plus allowing time to access lights or alarms.
173818,2,Cute but long,"This is a nice book, but I think there's a little too much text for a small child to sit through. Maybe my daughter just has a shorter attention span than most?"
173824,2,"Better Than SNOW WHITE, BLOOD RED","Why is this fairy tale anthology out of print? It's got a great collection of stories! I liked practically everything that was in here. SNOW WHITE, BLOOD RED may have been the first volume in editors Datlow and Windling's series of such books, but this fourth one is hands-down more gripping... the stories are better written, in my opinion.Among my favorite selections from this volume are:SNOW IN DIRT by Michael BlumleinSPARKS by Gregory FrostTHE REVEREND's WIFE by Midori SnyderTHE TRUE STORY by Pat Murphy, andGODMOTHER DEATH by Jane YolenI hope BLACK SWAN, WHITE RAVEN is published once more so I can grab my own copy. I have the first three anthologies and haven't read number 2 and number 3 yet, but that was only because I had to finish this one in time to return it to the library. Thank goodness they have it!If you like this series, then I definitely recommend getting your hands on this one."
173897,2,Improvement over blue tooth ear set,"OK, I admit I hate wearing that blue tooth ear thing. So I tried the Blue Ant. It is great in the car. The buttons are bigger for volume and on and off so I can find them easily without looking for them. Very clear voice transmission most of the time. I used it once inside the house as a speakerphone--that did not work so well, but I do not know why. I will have to try again. I am not much of a phone user, unlike most of the world who should just have the cell phone implanted inside the skull (sorry for this political statement) but I like the Blue Ant very much for its clarity and ease of use. I gave this purchase to my husband who uses the phone a lot in the car and he loves it. So I will soon be purchasing another one for me."
173928,2,I Like It When.....,My son is 16 months and we bought this book two months ago. He gives it to me to read at least 5 times a day. It fell apart today after so much use. So I am buying a new one and also buying other books from the same author.
173957,2,Don't Miss This One,"This little book--14 pages--is one of the most moving stories I have ever read. When the author was 13, he spent most of his free time in the woods hunting and camping. He was befriended by a black lab whose tag identified him only as Ike. Every time he would go into the woods Ike would be there to hunt with him, retrieve game, sleep beside him, and listen to his problems. Then, quite abruptly, Ike disappeared and it was 30 years before the author learned what had happened. It was not what he had feared. I have read IKE multiple times and it never fails to make me cry. This book may not be worth much in terms of paper but the story is worth a fortune. It won't take much of your time and you will never forget it."
173963,2,A real eye opener,"As a casual investor, I never realized all of the opportunities I had been missing, or very simply how my naivete had placed me at a disadvantage in the equities markets. I find it hard to believe that some of the practices which are conducted today by some of the larger brokerage firms are legal, albeit not ethical. Who could ask for more than a level playing field?"
173973,2,The O.C. - The complete Fourth Season,This being the final. seems like such a shame not to continue with more episodes. The acting is fun with a great cast. It will be missed.
174005,2,It's a hit with my 3yr old!,"I got this truck for my son's 3rd birthday. While I do have a gripe about our driver's side door being difficult to open I'm still quite happy with this product. I've read many Mighty World reviews that say the directions are difficult, but honestly, you don't need to change the suspension to play with the truck. Once out of the package the vehicle is ready to go.Yes, it does come with several little pieces, but my children have also been playing with Playmobil for many years, so we are used to the small parts.All in all, we love Mighty World and plan on purchasing more!"
174096,2,1st Zelda Experience,"This is the first time I have played Zelda in any format. There were a few things to learn, plus playing on the Wii takes a little work. Mostly I have enjoyed the game. I haven't been stuck for very long in anyone place. The clues given in the game are more than sufficient to help a new player along without giving too much away."
174172,2,HULKAMANIA is running wild!,"I remember going to the L.A. Sports Arena 2 or 3 times a year as a kid in the 80's and feeling really excited when the Hulkster headlined the card. When I found out that this collection contained a couple of matches from the L.A. Sports Arena, I knew I had to own it. In the match against King Haku, Hulk had on that 'war bonnet' that he wore to various house shows in 1988.Additionally, this 3-disc collection contains many many matches that I had not had a chance to see before. Although the matchups might be familiar, such as Savage vs Hogan, these particular matches are first time releases(Hogan/Savage in Detroit 1986). Granted for some these might represent ""same old"", but for those who enjoyed the Hulkster of old, these first time releases represent a new opportunity to relive briefly those times when being a Hulkamaniac meant something special."
174190,2,It's really worth [the money]!,"I went to a 3 Doors Down concert before I even owned this CD and loved them. Although the CD is a little short (40 min) and some lyrics can be a bit repetitive it does deserve 5 stars. My personal favorites are Loser, Not Enough, Be Like That, and Down Poison. If you liked Kryptonite and Loser you should really check this out."
174238,2,Jane Austin's Pride and Prejudice,"I love Jane Austen and all filmed versions of her books; with the possible exception of ""Mansfield Park."" But this version of Pride and Prejudice I really enjoy because it is so campy. I truly wish that it would be made on dvd because my vhs is in very bad condition after so much viewing."
174268,2,Pushed for time buy this one,"I had read a good number of books on so called ""Sacred Sex"" and wanted to see what the 20/21st sexexperts had to say on the subject. What I found was a pleasant surprise.The book is more than about technique although there is plenty of that, it goes into what the sexes truly want if only they were able to communicate effectively.The author is to be congratulated, unlike a great deal of other books on the subject, it is short and to the point.This is no definitive guide by any means but truly helpful."
174303,2,Works perfect,Been using with my Delonghi EC155 and works well even thought the basket size is 53mm. Handles real good. Nice purchase.
174362,2,A great summer read.,This book is a great summer read. The intriguing plot and surprise ending will not disappoint. One of the best mysteries I've read. I highly recommend this book for mystery lovers.
174367,2,Great little system,"We've been sing this great storage system for years. In our little house there's no room for cabinets full of leftovers containers, so this fits the bill. The replacement containers extended the useful life of the system by several more years!"
174376,2,Nursing Ease,"As to the one-star reviews which say you HAVE to get out of bed, well, not if you are breastfeeding and you know how to nurse lying down!!! If you learn how to do this, the co-sleeper is GREAT, if you don't learn how to nurse lying down, or you are bottlefeeding, then this product WOULD NOT be helpful."
174486,2,Yellow Group,I really liked this book I think it is a must read because it is about two kids that run away from home. They run away because they think they are being treated unfairly. In the book they decide to run away to the museum.In the middle of the book is what I think was the best because it is where they are in the museum and they are researching a sculpture. In the end of the story they go to Mrs. basil E. Frankweiler's house because they find out that Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler might know about the sculpture and she did and had a whole file of it but there was a catch and it was that you had to find the file within 1hour. If you want to know more about it you have to read it.
174516,2,Good Facial Steamer,I have used this facial steamer about 5x now and I have to say it works well at opening your pores but the negative about it is that it gets very hot and you have to stay so far away from it or it will burn. Otherwise it works like it says it will and I am happy with my purchase.
174539,2,How Could Anyone,"The first time i heard this song i was on a Renewal Retreat the words touch my heart so i begin to cry. One of the sisters did a dance along with the music,I said i must have this cd i ordered it. The only place i could find it was at amazon.com The whole CD is just beautiful when i'm having one of those tough days i put on Shaina Noll Songs for the inner child and it brings peace to my soul."
174699,2,BEST OF THE SERIES,"Just purchased another copy to give to my daughter. I have played this CD more than any other of the 200 or so I own. It features popular songs sung by an artist different from the one who had the hit. ""Cathy's Clown,"" ""The Rose,"" ""It's Only Make Believe,"" and ""Tennessee Waltz"" are my favorites; but they're all good. This is a lot like the ""Common Threads"" album featuring various other artists doing Eagles songs."
174706,2,Pass the duct tape.,"This is the one that started it all. The first season of the hugely popular TV series was based on DDD. Will you like it if you love the series? Yea and perhaps nay. You'll like how delightfully warped and wonderfully hilarious Dexter is. You might be miffed that the secondary characters, so essential to the success of the TV version, receive short shrift in the novels. The books are all about the Big D. And in this instance, that's enough. It and the second book are the absolute best of the books to date. So if you're tempted to test the literary Dexter, by all means, DARKLY DREAMING DEXTER is right up your serial killer alley."
174713,2,APPLIED CHOCOLATE,"If you are looking for a book about the history of chocolate making then this is probably not completely what you want. While the book does offer a variety of interesting insights into the history of some the world's great chocolateers, it's real strength, I believe, is in the applications that come through in spades for applying branding, production and managerial principles to similar industries and companies.If you want to build a consumer brand, whether it be western attire, garden tools, paper products, greeting cards..what have you...Emperors of Chocolate is a wonderful branding and marketing strategy book with applicable principles galore.Look past the chocolate and apply the strategies to your own product."
174771,2,Love it.,I absolutely love this series and all the twists and turns it gives popular fairy tales. Keeps you coming back for more!
174860,2,SHOCKING!,"Even though it's fiction, you are not catching me eating anymore at Fast Food stops. I am very careful where and what type of Hamburger I eat. This book open my eye's up to what could happen."
174945,2,I have been extremely pleased with mine,I am only a light user.... maybe 5 gallons every two to three weeks.... and I have found the water Hot ... or cold... depending on what I want and have experienced no after taste....I have had mine about a year and only use bottled (RO) water which I assume everyone is using and not had any problems...
175007,2,A Good Pack,"Comfortable to wear. Built sturdy.Waist straps have elastic bands to keep the straps from getting caught in everything if you don't use them. This also functions to keep them out of the way. Goggle pocket slowly unzips itself everything I take the pack off.Really kinda small to be a college pack. Fits a laptop, a two inch binder, and a 1 in binder tightly with 4-5 inches of height to spare in main pouch. Secondary pouch can fit an additional 1 in binder. Side pockets can hold the laptop charger and mouse nicely.Have not yet used pack for hauling a board up a mountain yet... should be able to do that within a few months.Great for carrying a lite to medium volume of stuff."
175068,2,Dennis Hopper Does Sinatra,"An entertaining indie film, also released as THE NIGHT WE CALLED IT A DAY. The story seems romanticized in its view of Frank Sinatra's major dust up with the Aussie press. But it actually happened. Dennis Hopper's performance does sell the story while, at the same time, can be a bit distracting--simply because Hopper bears so little physical resemblance to the legendary crooner. What also makes the film worthwhile is a solid line-up of Australian players now familiar to American audiences, including Rose Byrne who was so dynamic in FX's DAMAGES and Portia DiRossi, better known for her great comic turn in ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT. Hearing them emote in their native accents, reminds us how easily Aussie thespians can handle our American inflections. Another fine player is Joel Edgerton as the young promoter who bets all his dreams on getting Ol Blue Eyes to perform down under."
175080,2,Gorgeous!,"This is one of the most original and beautiful frames I have in my home. I love that it holds 4x6 pictures, since that is what most of mine are!! It's very versatile, and can be used for any type of picture you want to show off!"
175093,2,Quilting patterns,"This is a good basic book for quilting patterns. It doesn't go much beyond traditional patterns, but it is definitely a good resource to have. Recommended."
175100,2,"Gritty northern drama, but heartwarming","Gritty northern drama, that inspires one. Here the theme of going against the grain, of the value of being an individual and non-conformist are celebrated. Aside from that the filme was interesting in recounting the social background of the early '80s in the UK, of the real hardships the miners faced. Great acting all the way round, strikes a gritty realist approach. One can almost taste the soot and coal dust in watching this film. Great songs too."
175171,2,Perfect technical / trance metal,"Ministry returns with this sweeping epic of high-tech industrial madness. On this record, they discover perfect intensity and (most likely) experiment with plenty of gizmos to boot. The opening track, ""Thieves"" features great shredding over tremolo picking on the lowest guitar string, then quickly molds into an uber-evil riff. The 2nd track, ""Burning Inside"", (if your like me) will envelop your mind into a trance with its hypnotic riffs & beats. Track 3, ""Never Believe"", is definitely another standout. ""Cannibal Song"", another hypnotic industrial-fused, dance metal track, will work the same way as the previous 2 tracks. Overall, and if you give it some time, you can let your mind lose itself and break free into the endless mental possibilities this record features. ""Dream Song"", the last song on the album, will pretty much deceive your mind into a false sense of outerspace dementia. A winner overall!"
175179,2,"The best ""American Idol"" Compilation CD Yet.","You better watch out lol Santa Claus is coming to town. This album is great, I'm listening to this cd like, all the time lol. My favorite is Kelly Clarkson's ""My Grown-Up Christmas List"". Reading the reviews here made me believe that I would skip most of the songs but it's not the case, if you like American Idol this cd is a must have!"
175184,2,What a PLOTZ!,"Dude, this album comes right out of the gate and blows a vanna! But it makes up for it by the end, and just when you think these guys almost zonked, the whole thing comes together. Track 7 sounds like a bloads to me, but what the hey, I've been tone deaf ever since I had the Sour Mash at Dylan's. Rock on fellars! Grover"
175205,2,Wonderful!,"I loved this book-- it's so detailed and the way the plot lines interact is fascinating. I've ""read"" it a dozen times, and found something new each time."
175225,2,meat puppets best ever,"simply put, live montana is the best meat puppets album ever. supposedly it is compiled from two of their best live shows, which i have heard could be pretty bad at times, but based on this recording i would love to hear more of their live stuff. the best part of the album is when they segue from track to track not unlike the grateful dead. and to this fan, this stuff is as marvelous as dead segues must be to deadheads. it's just a really goddamn good piece of plastic (or whatever cds are made of). if you've never heard the puppets or are a big fan, but it next chance you get"
175230,2,Good rubber,"Good quality tire in a hard-to-find size. I've run Cheng Shins on my motorcycle for years, so I have no worries about quality."
175244,2,Interesting early progressive rock,"This album came out at about the same time as ""In the court of the crimson king"" (King Crimson). Side A contained only one long piece about a shipwreck with narrating voice and a lot of interesting musical ideas. Very good. Side B is however more mainstream and less good. But I gave it 4 stars just because I like the A side so much. Like a more melodic King Crimson or a more progressive Moody Blues."
175282,2,They Rock... You've never heard of them...,"I was reccomended to Chronic Future by a friend so I checked them out, I downloaded a couple tracks(Legally) to give a listen too, and I was pleased to say the least!!To try to sum up Chronic Future is no easy task. The best you can try to do is label them as a strange concoction mix of Linkin Park and Hoobastank. Combining skilfully Hard Rock, with a slight trace of metal, and screaming, and then some catchy pop chourses? Odd, no?Some of my favorite songs from this album have to be New York, NY, Thank You, and Wicked Games."
175288,2,Lots of info with occasional poor definitions,"This book gives a lot of information on circuit analysis techniques but some of the definitions are poor, especially with meshes and trees. Mesh loops actually are loops such that they cannot be formed with any of the other loops that were chose in the circuit. Also, their examples with RLC circuits give overly complicated methods of finding initial changes in inductor current or capacitor voltage. The book should show that an easy way to find initial changes in inductor current or capacitor voltage is to plug the initial inductor current or capacitor voltage into the nodal equation or loop equation that has been differentiated so that the change in inductor current or capacitor voltage is present in the equation."
175383,2,The Bage of Honor Series is set in the 70's,It seems that many people have difficulty with these books because they miss the fact that the series is set in the early to mid 70's. Read the earlier ones it becomes clear.
175407,2,More Please!,"I want more! I downloaded this gem from listening to one song and now want more! Lotta funk mixed in with a great rock sound that sort of has semblance to Jack White and the Raconteurs. I ranked this a 4, but would give 4.5 if they allowed. Enjoy & play loud!"
175426,2,A Beautiful Dream,"What an engrossing and throughly beautiful novel. Ideas mingle with actions, history is interwoven with emotion. True enough, the novel starts out slowly, but there is intention here- the author draws you into the web of his tale. I found myself eagerly looking forward to each element of the story, layered on by sometimes achingly heart-wrenching prose. This is literature and not just another book, and the very best kind of ""literature"" at that- for it was such a great read.(Don't we all know the experience of reading something supposedly in those ranks and ""good for us"" only to be supremely bored?) How marvelous to be able to create at this level! Read this one, taking your time and then read it again."
175454,2,Precision Blu-Ray,"The accuracy of Criterion's new blu-ray version of BROADCAST NEWS is evident the minute the 20th-Century Fox logo is displayed: it is rich in the kind of grain that dominated film stock of the eighties. The color timing is superb and topples all previous video releases in richness and detail. The video extras are indulgent promotional pieces - crass for Criterion; but the commentary by Brooks will be of interest for those that want to delve deeper.The film is a pinnacle in Brooks' career - he never did anything better, before or since, and all his experience in the tacky world of sitcom television really pays off here - and he successfully avoids making a pastiche of Chayefsky's cynically brilliant NETOWRK in favor of his own perceptive humanist view. Brooks rightfully and continually praises his marvelous BROADCAST NEWS cast; it's a picture dependent on their perfectly pitched performances."
175486,2,The Champ,"Theee Mack Daddy. Monster. Has almost everything. If there is something you need and this thing doesn't have it, get a toolbox.Very wide. Needs a pouch. Too heavy for pocket. But its a survival beast! Usable for around the house too."
175527,2,absolutely gorgeous,"I was hesitant about ordering this item because I had never seen it in person, and returning it would have been a pain. This light is so beautiful. The picture of the light is a very good representation, only it is even more beautiful in person and when you turn the light on, man what a beautiful light!"
175621,2,"Great book, terrible movie!","The book is one of the most suspenseful,entertaining, and informative books I've read in months.Avoid the movie( based on the book), however. It is slow and boring."
175666,2,Satisfies the Appetite,"Pure Bar Organic Wild Blueberry claims their bar is ""Organic; Raw; Gluten-Free; Certified Kosher; Certified Vegan; Healthy; Delightful"". Each bar is 190 calories and contains 8 grams of total fat, 5 grams of proteins and 25 grams of total carbohydrates. One nice aspect is that the bar contains no sodium. When I open the bar there was no aroma of blueberry and the bar look like all the date bars now being sold as this type of organic bar. Though this date paste has a smooth texture holding in place chopped nuts and dried blueberries. Best of all, besides being edible, is that it leaves no lingering aftertaste. I would buy these if I was hungry and needed something on the go. I will try the cherry one next. Though not something I would seek out....I would be glad to eat it."
175734,2,"Good,Fast, and Inexpensive Solution for Storage","I find the Seagate FA 500GB to be easy to use and quickly backed up the files on my 2 computers. That's what I needed and thats what I got. You can keep it connected to do a daily update. I just hook it up from time to time, click on the latest document and photo folders I've accumulated and in less than a minute it's done. Feels much safer knowing I've got all that info stored somewhere other than the computer. In my son's world- the world of late teens and early 20's, there seems to be some real threats to a person's hard drive. He has the same Seagate and uses it more often than not to reload his entire load of files after someone or something crashes his computer online. Mean world out there. Good to have one of these."
175762,2,A fun story line which celebrates unusual friendships and individual attributes,"Erica Neitz illustrates an engaging story by Andy Mills and Becky Osborn of a small town where five very different friends of different shapes, sizes, colors and talents. The rhyming verse of Shapesville lends to the celebration of characteristics which make them unique in a fun story line which celebrates unusual friendships and individual attributes."
175770,2,So long bitter coffee,"I purchased this product a month ago purely based on what other had said and I have to say that it is all true. If you think the coffee you make at home tastes bitter or signifigantly worse than Starbucks, buy this contraption, the coffee is good."
175889,2,If you like curry...,"I agree that the curry is very dominating in this chocolate bar but then again, I love curry. I first came upon this bar at Whole Foods. They had a little sample table set up and I normally don't buy chocolate so I just walked by but I overheard the woman at the table say coconut curry and I ran over to see what they were talking about. I tasted the bar and my eyes rolled into my head. For me, this is the best mixture of tastes. I even told the woman at the table that this is by far the best chocolate bar I've ever had. The coconut is not a prominent flavor it is so mild that I don't taste it much if at all. The grittiness that someone mentioned, I believe, is the coconut so it adds more texture than taste in my opinion. This is not a mild bar with just a hint of flavor so if you are not a curry fan, this most likely isn't for you."
175897,2,Heroism defaced by leftist lunacy,"This documentary is a superbly executed expose of British Bomber Command in World War II where 59,000 young volunteers sacrificed their lives bringing the battle to Nazi's while the rest of the world reeled or dawdled. Everything about this production is flawless except the unfortunate second-guessing of Bomber Command's area bombing of civilian population centers in Germany. Viewers of this documentary need to keep in mind that left wing politics suffered a monumental blow on a world stage when Hitler betrayed England by attacking Poland (and touching off world war). This betrayal brought conservative Winston Churchill to prominence on the world stage, and so leftist were interested then, and remain interested today, in finding fault with Churchill's prosecution of the war in any way they could and can. England and all the free world owe unending, unqualified gratitude to Bomber Command."
175912,2,it's excellent,"All of us know the movie of Lion king but It's the first time that I receive movie with different profile.DVD, Blue ray , 3D and finally digital copy for IPAD ( ITUNE )"
175918,2,Absolutely wonderful,"""The Lion King"" is one of the best movies ever made. It should be cherished as a Disney classic forever. Mufasa is so wise and Jeremy Irons does a really great job of making Scar evil. I would have to say my favorite character is Simba...because he really had some struggles and he pulled through them. This has some really great lines: Ah yes the past can hurt, but the way I see it you can either run from it or learn from it. ~Rafiki How can I go back! I'm not who I used to be! ~Simba You are more then what you have become ~Mufasa Remember who you are ~Mufasa There are countless others, but I haven't the time to name them. This movie is really wonderful. The cast is superb and the comedy is really great. It is probably the greatest animated film of all time. Not to mention that the music in this movie is absolutely PHENOMENOL, especially in the scene at the end where Simba climbs Pride Rock. Whoever designed this music has some real talent. I love this movie, it is marvelous."
176006,2,Exactly what I was expecting,"I have a Toshiba notebook with builtin Bluetooth and was using an MX500 Logitech mouse. That mouse was great, except for the cablem which was long enough to be attached to even some very far desktop computers, but when you use it with a notebook, that cable is too long.When Logitech released the MX900, I decided to give it a try and now I'm using it very well. It works fine with the builtin Bluetooth, even if you can't install the software that comes with it if you're not using the Bluetooth station provided by Logitech.The only button that is not working is the app switch one, so, I can live with that.The battery lasts four full days for me, even leaving it inside the notebook carrying case (in dark surfaces the mouse can't power off the optical sensor) for long times.The mouse works very well for the kind of applications I use and the games I play (only Neverwinter Nights, actually).The price is a bit high, but I have to say that I love that mouse."
176018,2,GOOD PRODUCT BUT...,Good product but I thought it was going to be like the BELKIN WI-FI telephone that could be Connected to any secured or open access WiFi network. It is just to use at your office or home. You cannot take it anywhere else
176023,2,"Like ""The Goonies"", but for adults","I thought this book was a great read because of the descriptive writing. If you have ever seen the movie ""The Goonies"" (treasure hunt movie by Steven Spielberg) it's like that, but on an adult level. I thought the book flowed nicely. It will definitely keep your attention. I look forward to reading another of their books, as this was my first."
176064,2,chocolate covered sunflowers,we loved the crunchiness with the chocolate . it is a choice made by individuals. but i loved them a lot! nutrition and chocolate combined. couldnt ask for better.
176156,2,A Wonderful Meaningful Gift,"I was given this book by my wife and children for my birthday. What a wonderful gift!! I have never had a daily devotional before this book, but always loved reading books on leadership. This book is a wonderful blend of leadership wisdom and the spiritualness we sometimes lack in our daily dealings with those we interact with. It has given me a wonderful start to my day. I then share the daily lesson with my family, friends and coworkers. A must have on your desk or in your briefcase."
176183,2,Great Buy,"Nothing enhances the value of your laptop like a really good extended-life battery. The HP EV089AA 12 Cell Lithium ION battery accomplished that hands down! This battery is easy and quick to install, and the impact of its additional size and weight are far exceeded by the tremendous gain in usable time on the laptop. The original battery is still usable and should be kept as a backup, or another means of squeezing out a few more hours of computing time if your on really long trips or flights. A good buy."
176208,2,"great cookbook, lots of variety",This is a great vegetarian cookbook to have especially if you're trying to eat foods that taste great and are also good for your health. Plenty of variety to choose from and most of the ingredients are easily found even at the average grocery store. This will definitely be a cookbook that I will come back to repeatedly. Anyone who likes good food will enjoy this book. Who ever knew healthy cooking would taste so heavenly?
176218,2,A very good movie.,Stockard Channing and Natalie Portman deliver a very good show. Walmart never looked so favorable as now. Watch and see.
176225,2,learn and laugh,Great book! Clearly written by someone who loves this country. My wife is a native of Baku learnt and laughed about her native country. Culturally savy and sensitive.
176280,2,Useful for teaching,Good companion to the book because young men can privately contemplate their own struggles as they work through this book alone without feeling like they are forced to share intimate details with others.
176295,2,SpongBob Grill,"I think that the toy is fun. My friends like to come over and play with it. It has a nice place under the grill to put the burgers, lettuce and stuff."
176326,2,EXCELLENT!,"This book is a MUST for anybody who is dealing with MS or has a loved one who is dealing with MS. It explains all about the disease, its symptoms, medications, obstacles, fears, tears, and ultimately how love overcomes all. The author has her personal experience with MS and shares the difficulties and frustrations involved in even obtaining a diagnosis for this mysterious disease. Explains everything in layman's terms and there is even a glossary and an index of testing procedures that are routinely done to detect MS. I am very pleased with this purchase, as is my best friend who has MS."
176338,2,Great product for the price!,"Though it cost me less than $10, this pen has become my cleaning item of choice for several digital cameras and HD video cams. The ability to remove all dust, in both humid conditions where it would seem to not want to stick to the brush, and dry conditions when static electricity would seem to make it want to stick ot the lens, has been remarkable. The felt end also does a fantastic job on slight smudges that I'd normally have to use a wipe on. I'm very happy with this."
176340,2,Great tool for in the field lens maintenance,"Binoc, teles, range finders and cameras. All can benefit from one of these. Light and compact, sturdy and effective. Keep the prints off the lenses."
176348,2,Compact and easy to use,Bought it for my D90 to make a cleaning kit to fit the pocketThere are some cheapos for fraction of this pricethey may do good but I went to branded ones....Any how I keep my gears clean so minimal use for these items.I used the brush to clean dust and small particles on the filters (never expose you lens glass) and some times to dust off my camera bodyThe felt cup/tip to clean smudges / finger prints on the glassIts worth having to maintain your grands worth of gears
176352,2,Had No Problems With The TV,I dont see what you others are talking about cause i had one and it worked great so i dont see how you people can bash it.
176374,2,The best CD we own.,"This is simply the best CD in our 500+ collection! My dad loves Gershwin and I love Feinstein, and we can't get enough of the beauty of the music, the simplicity and the genious of the lyrics and the sweetness of Michael's voice. Gershwin songs were meant for Michael Feinstein to sing..."
176411,2,good history of herbalism,the historical aspect of this book is excellent and makes a good read. The last chapters about the current herbalism trends are a bit weak though.
176421,2,Fun to read,"This book gives pretty good advice and is written with a sense of humor. I thought it was going to be more about dressing, but it's so much more.It gives useful advise for many areas of a women's life....health, fashion, organizing, entertainment and more.I have owned it for awhile and I go back to it from time to time to re-read some of the chapters.I think it can be useful for women in their 20's, 30's and beyond."
176425,2,Greatest Toy Ever!,I own many toys but this is my absolute favorite!!! I already wore mine out and now I need to buy another one but.. it is well worth it. Regular Pocket rockets are great but this one has 3 settings.. each a little stronger than the last. This is great toy to use with your man ladies! Enjoy! And.. don't forget to buy plenty of batteries!
176518,2,"Fantastic, riveting, interesting and excellent graphics","This is one fantastic game! As I said in the title it's got great graphic, it is interesting and keeps you trying to figure out who done it. Well worth it! Thumbs up for this new concept I haven't seen much in games before!"
176633,2,Great Album,"Where do I start? This has to be one of the year's best albums. A great follow up. I really like Fix You, Swallowed in the Sea, and X&Y; to me these are the better songs on the album, but there isn't anything on it I don't like. I highly recommend this album to any music fan."
176797,2,Spooky Tooth is back in fine form,"This is a reunion I never thought possible. But I'm glad it happened, because the guys sound great. The vocals are strong, and the guitar work is clean and sharp. There are many memorable tracks. In fact this set brings the best of the early Humble Pie sound as a bonus. Let's hope the success of this album brings Gary Wright back and a U.S. tour happens. Be sure to buy this one. And, hey, can we have YOU BROKE MY HEART SO I BUSTED YOUR JAW and TOBACCO ROAD reissues next?"
176823,2,Flavorful bubblel gum!,"This is the best flavor of all the bubblegums I have tried (I'm a bubble gum lover)! Although I have my favorite colors, I TRY not to chew them all first!! Love the packaging also."
176866,2,Don't go to Nightown without it.,"After several fail attempts to derive a decent amount of meaning from the Circe chapter, this book made it not only clear but fun. Other chapters, which I thought I had a good grasp of, such as the Penelope chapter, became even more lucid. Blamires provides a road map to get through the Ulysses labyrinth without allowing himself to get bogged down with every detail, leaving the reader the delight of discovering the treasures of allusion him or herself."
176906,2,Spurgeon's Pastoral Heart Shines Through,Charles Spurgeon said that his most prolific and highest honor was when he had the chance to teach the young men at his Pastor's College which he founded in London at the famed Metropolitan Baptist Tabernacle. His famous LECTURES TO MY STUDENTS has been read and studied by many preachers down through the years.This smaller book on pastoral ministry is often overlooked. AN ALL-AROUND MINISTRY (proper title) is a wonderful addition to LECTURES TO MY STUDENTS. In this work Spurgeon gives practical advice to young preachers concerning the work of the ministry. His desire is to simply glorify God in all that we say or do (Colossians 3:17). Spurgeon's heart pours out from every topic from speaking to prayer. A great book not only for Bible teachers but for all disciples as well.
176986,2,Better than Pixter,"I too couldn't decide between the color pixter ( we already have the B&W) and the Leapster but once I saw the Leapster it was a no-brainer! The pixter is fine for coloring and mindless mish-mosh but the Leapster actually teaches them something - I hope it will replace the Leap Pad - pain to use, and very frustrating for my 4-year old - I hope my son loves it as much as I do! P.S. A carrying case is now available (Toys R Us) which holds up to 6 cartridges - better than the case for the original Pixter!"
177005,2,Awesome!!:),"This game is really awesome! I bought it for my daughter.She thinks she'll be addicted to this game. The animals are really cute! The only thing she doesn't like is that you can only see two pets at one time. Yes you can have more pets, but you can only see two (of your choice) pets out of their kennels at once. Other than that it's really neat!!!! We recomend it to so many people who don't have a dog or cat, and those who do!"
177103,2,Downing of TWA Flight 800,Absolutely amazing. Surprising that out government would & does go to great lengths to be so mysterious and untruthful to its citizens.
177113,2,Wonderful Cd,"I love this CD, God On the Mountain, and I like all the songs on the cd. Lynda Randle has a beautiful gifted voice."
177148,2,Great flavor!,I love this flavor of Kernel's Seasoning but almost never use it on popcorn! Instead I often sprinkle it on vegetables I've steamed. I could easily use a bigger size package of the stuff.
177201,2,How far would you go?,"Very well made film involving Terroism, Torture and how far you would go to stop someone from taking Innocent lives. Kill the few to save the many? That is the basic question here. Samuel L. Jackson is very good in this. I recommend watching this film. Really makes you think and question your own Convictions."
177214,2,Loved it.,It's not just for guys. I watched it on HBO and now own the first series. I am anxiously awaiting the next one to come out.This is what I would think real life prison is about and I think anyone watching this would think twice about going it.Better the violence happening there than on the outside.
177372,2,AWESOME PRODUCT!,I love this trimmer! Works great. The vacuum part of the trimmer catches all of the hair with no problem. The only negative is that it is a little loud. I would buy this trimmer again in a heartbeat!
177481,2,Work well except that it is a little loud,"It is very light and heats things up quickly and efficiently. Since it does not get hot at the bottom, you can leave it on any table while cooking. I use it to make Chinese Hot Pot dishes and it is perfect for that. The cooling fan is a little loud. If you plan to use it for a quiet dinner, then the noise may be noticeable. However for typical pot hot dinner, the guests are likely to be very loud so no one would notice it."
177521,2,Good Sci Fi book,I liked this book. The various plot lines kept it interesting. I hope that there will be a follow up book.
177583,2,Old Skool House Heads: Rejoice!!,"This is the CD that got me hooked on house music forever. On this CD, Judge Jules demonstrates what exactly a DJ should be doing in addition to flawless beat-matching. He keeps things interesting from font to back so the impression it gives is that of a single, larger experience rather than a 'hits collection' that uses the familiarity trick to gain your interest. Don't be mistaken though, some of the tracks included were big 'underground' house hits in '93. But Jules' performance is what makes this worth playing even today.Personally, I compare ALL my mix cd's to this one, only Keoki compares favorably (even though his style is different.)"
177601,2,awesome,"I have two friends that have the expedition c. This is why I bought mine. I use it for fishing and hunting. Puts me right on the spot I want to be. I would recommend this unit highly. I have been looking for this unit for a long time, and found the best price on Amazon.com."
177670,2,A book I didn't want to put down...,"This book was a journey, it took me to places in the heart I've never been but had been searching for most of my life. While I don't believe that there is just one specific ""answer"" in life, this book has been an open door to explore the possibilities of life, death, love and laughter. The healing tools of life are love and laughter, and the reminder that they are needed daily is ever present in the pages of this book, both on this earth and off. I will use this book often as a gentle but constant reminder of those that have left my side, but not my life."
177744,2,"Reading it didn't help, unfortunately","I've read several of Parks' book, enjoyed them all. Reading this one about life in a small town (not Verona, but Montecchio, which is in Verona Province; Verona is a city of 250,000) did not warn me off moving to Verona for three years, 2005-2008. Verona, though a small city, is really a conglomeration of neighborhoods, and I should have listened to Parks more. But who knew?Long story short, nothing, and I mean nothing, prepares you for living in Italy except actually going there and doing it. We returned after three years. Our favorite saying is, The USA has its craziness, too, but it's our craziness and we grew up understanding it. Italians are the most exasperating people, though I know that Italians say that about Americans.Read this book, don't discount any of it, and know that living in Italy part-time as in 'Under the Tuscan Sun' is not the same as 365 days a year. Italy is a really great place to visit."
177791,2,"Well written, good plot",I have read two of Anthony Trollopes novels and I found this to be the better of the two so far. It is quite discriptive of the period and the plot is quite good. I enjoyed it and will read more of his works in the future
177804,2,As good as the old days!,"Thank you Deicde for making some of the best Death Metal ever. This CD is one of the heaviest and most talented I have ever heard. Morrissound ROCKS !! I know you guys are my pals and all but I am still blown away by your music. Thanks for all the great songs. Thanks for believing in the music and never giving up. Deicide's music has affected many peoples lives and that will make Deicide immortal. Please never quit guys! DEICIDE !!R.I.P. Chuck Shuldiner, may the Tampa Death Metal scene never die !"
177816,2,Interesting story of a Great Woman in history,"I must admit that my usual style of book is military history but my Scottish heritage tempted me to look at this book and I loved it. The author presents a tragic tale in such a well written way that I just lost track of time reading the story. Its a well research and written book and I think anybody who has a love for history would enjoy this book. The only thing I disliked about this book and its only minor, is the french phrases used without any translation supplied. Overall its a great story and a good read."
177831,2,Portable fun!!!!!,"I think the best thing about this toy is that it can go anywhere, and keeps my baby happy in the car, and that it sings, Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes, which is my baby's favorite song. She gets so excited when the music starts playing. I also experienced the broken ear, but it happened soon after we bought it so we returned it to the store. We have had the new one for about a week and have not yet experienced any problems. It is a very educational toy, she is learning all of the body parts and plays with this toy all the time. Broken ear aside, I would recommend this toy to any parent."
177834,2,My daughter loves it,"My 1 and 1/2 year old loves the songs on this toy. I have a concern about the durability, though. The button on the ear stopped working after using it for about 6 months, and she is not hard on her toys."
177883,2,Works For What We Need,"We were looking for a relatively fair priced bike lock that would keep our bikes protected while we were away from them. Decided on purchasing this lock and so far we have not been disappointed. The chain is thin, but not so thin it looks like it could snap. The lock feels fairly heavy and sturdy.As with every lock and chain, it typically only keeps the honest thieves away. If someone wants to get your bike with this lock on it, I'm sure they will."
177940,2,12 picks. 1 color. As advertised. Great deal.,"This is a great deal. I'm not sure where some reviewers got the idea this was for 72 picks; maybe the page has changed. This is a much better deal on a dozen high-quality picks than I can get at my local music store.Tortex picks are color-coded, and the page clearly indicates that each color is a different thickness. When you order, for example, blue picks, you get 12, 1.0 mm picks. They're not multi-colored, they're blue, as the page says.The blue ones are thicker than some of the other colors, and therefore stiffer. I like a stiff pick and switched to these from Ernie Ball mediums. Players who prefer a thinner pick should try a different color. That's one great thing about the color-coding system; you always know what you're getting.Tortex picks do not slip out of your hand easily, last well, at least for me, and give a great sound. I'm hooked on Tortex blues."
177982,2,A Tragic King,"It is hard to imagine how the conflicts of state and personal relationships impact on a King convinced of his devine right to rule.We are similarly conflicted in our feelings toward himThis is the tragedy of King Henry who remains for all the grandeur of his court, a lonely figure.We admire his courage and intelligence and dispair at his vanity and cruelty.This series gives an insight into a world we can hardly imagine."
178018,2,good but...,great footage of some great surfers. enjoyed the story and the movie but i was disappointed in what i thought would have been a great opportunity to explore the real meaning behind the idea to travel the world with a couple of young surfers. the message was spoken but not acted out nearly as much as i would have hoped.good stuff at any rate!
178078,2,EXCELLENT!,"I finished reading this books in 2 days only! Wow!!! I really really love it! Excellent story, great characters and plot. I love the wolves too. This is one of the best story I ever read, the one that you cannot put down before you finish it. I even stay up until 5:30 am. My mind keep telling me to read one more chapter. just one more, and I ended up with lots more. This is one of those books that one MUST have! truly a masterpiece. I can't wait to read the sequel."
178165,2,works well for what we need.,We bough this because all are children have asthma. We wanted this so we could hear if their was a problem and they were still wheezing when their asthma was at its worse. works great for what we need.
178220,2,Great Insight,"This is one of the best how-to books on the market regarding the habits and lifestyles of the North American Elk. Easy read, with numerous examples of what to do and what not to do. The author has a great knowledge of elk and their behaviors. I suggest this book for any novice or even experienced Elk hunter."
178236,2,Good product for the price,"I have now used this Bell hitch bike mount several times and think it delivers good value for the money. I use it on a Honda S2000 so I don't need the folddown feature but it secures the bike well and is comparably easy to put on and take off. Also the price is right. I just can't see spending the extra money for the high end bike racks. After all it is just a BIKE RACK. Two caveats: 1) It is important to tighten the hitch mounting bolt well since that is what keeps the unit from swaying; 2) The bike(s) will travel much better if you secure the inside pedal to the upright and secure the front wheel to the frame with either velcro ties, bungies or rope, this keeps the bike stable on the rack and keeps your front wheel from moving back and forth and perhaps hitting your bumper. You can get the ties or bungies at most hardware stores."
178280,2,Confirmed this is the 20GB zen usb 2.0,"cheaper than the ipod, a little bigger in size, a lot bigger in capacity, with the ability to be upgraded to 40GB or 60GB. Creative says that when the battery dies [after about 500 charge cycles] you can send it back in to replace the batter [battery builtin] it has only one output, and that is for the headphones. these were my main concerns that went unanswered when reading other reviews. it is a great deal for such a large capacity player"
178335,2,600 Polaroid Film,Product arrived on time and in excellent condition. Worked great with our cameras and the kids loved the event. Thanks!
178359,2,Great value for money. Superb engineering. JBone2 even better,"Rarely does form, fit and function elegantly come together with a clear standout against all the alternatives. Aliph did it with this original product. Now at half price due to the newer JBone#2, it is a must have.I lost mine and replaced it with a JBone #2, which is even better. Same superior noise cancellation and clarity for your audience - I recently participated in a conference call at an airport departure gate and no one heard the paging going on in my background.The JBone#2 is even easier to place into the ear and I no longer need the ear-hook. The price is more but the lighter, easier to use JB2 is a nice upgrade."
178365,2,A good McKee Sampler,"I have been a fan of McKee's since her days with Lone Justice, in fact since I first heard ""Ways to Be Wicked"". I have enjoyed her music since then but just wish she'd do more.It's hard to review a Greatest Hits collection. If you are a Maria McKee fan you will really like this CD but you will find yourself pining for more and wishing that she were more active musically. Personally I would love to see her get together with Lone Justice again and reunite - isn't everyone else?If you are a little familiar with Maria McKee, it probably would be better for you to listen to her work with Lone Justice so that you cna get a full appreciation of her talents."
178392,2,\m/,If you like the classic Sabbath with Dio then this is a no brainer to purchase. You get the remastered classics plus 3 new songs. I would have paid the 10.99 just for the new songs. They are very good. I wish Sign of the Southern Cross and Country Girl had been included on the CD.
178418,2,The Best post-Peter Gabriel Genesis Album!,"If you're a rock/pop music fan and you were only allowed to buy one Genesis album, this would have to be it. Besides Fleetwood Mac's ""Rumors"", this is the only album I can listen to straight through without skipping over songs. ""Mama"" is still intriguing, 16 years later. ""That's All"" is probably my least favorite on the album, but still bearable. ""Home By the Sea"" is a classic (I'm shocked it's not on the recent Turn It On Again CD) ""Illegal Alien"" and ""Just A Job To Do"" are both catchy and fun, ""Taking It All Too Hard"" is the ballad of the album but not too sappy, ""Silver Rainbow"" is great through headphones and ""It's Gonna Get Better"" is probably the best ""album ending song"" of all time. It leaves you wanting more. Unfortunately, ""Invisible Touch"" was the follow up, their worst album ever. ""Genesis"" is the best, and one can't go wrong with the purchase."
178464,2,this flatware service is great,we have been using for 3 weeks and so far so good - no problems with washing in dishwasher or by hand. lots better than my set of cambridge which i got rid of - glad we purchased and a great price
178494,2,"""Go Ask Alice"" a real eye opener","I found Go Ask Alice to be a realistic view into an average teens life that was turned upside down by drug abuse. Written in the form of a diary, I felt I could relate to the teenage girl writing her story. Through out the story, the narrator delves deeper into the disturbing world of drug abuse. Reading her story made me realize that her story could happen to anyone. At the start she is a carefree teen, and by the end she is institutionalized because of her drug abuse. I cannot say I enjoyed the book, because the content was both upseting and disturbing to me, but I found it to to be an excellent book, and a real eye opener to the world of drug abuse."
178578,2,Hard n Heavy,"A debut album from the Candian band ""Anvil"". I purchased this after listening to ""Metal on Metal"". Another great album, Robb Reiner's a monster on the drums. I enjoyed the cover of ""Paint it Black"", kind of a weird choice, but at least they played it in their own style instead doing a carbon copy remake. If you've purchased other Anvil albums and enjoyed them, pick up Hard n Heavy too."
178586,2,A Comforting Book to GIVE or RECEIVE,"I had received this book from some caring vet friends after my beautiful, 14 yo dog passed away. I was devastated over losing my wonderful mixed breed boy and I miss him terribly. The book is a quick, comforting read that you will look at over and over again as it will make you cry, smile, and always appreciate the MAGICAL GIFTS THAT DOGS ARE TO US. I have now sent a copy to a friend who lost her dog recently as I appreciated receiving it."
178653,2,The Best Book I've Ever Read,"I recently bought the Da Vinci Code about a week ago and have already finished it. The author Dan Brown ends almost every chapter with mystery making you not want to put the book down. The book leave you guessing about who ""the Teacher"" could possibly be and wondering if the main characters do find what they set out for. The end is a wonderfully shocking, I personally have never liked reading, but this book makes me want to read more. I think everyone should read this amazing book that makes you want to go on a quest of your own."
178733,2,very thought provoking,"it calls into question many beliefs firmly held by a majority of this world. and as an educated individual, one should be able to examine the theory with an open mind and realize that the possibilities suggested by this book just might be true. religion is based on belief -- scietifically unproven. but yet we believe anyways."
178792,2,Excellent source of inspiration!,"I can't figure out why some people would rate this book so negatively. This is an epic story of tradegy and hope. Lisa Beamer is an incredible woman who has experienced a nightmare that we pray never happens to us. Yet she has incredible courage, faith, and strength through our Lord in the midst of this crisis. I can only hope that I would be that strong given the same circumstances. I know her husband is looking down on her from heaven smiling and being proud. God knew how strong she was when he allowed such a tradegy to occur.This book just tells her story. That's it. Personally, it encouraged and inspired me to be more like her in my faith!"
178816,2,WHAT A GREAT READ!,"A great read from Tel Currie and Julian Davies. Tel currie is one of the most 'connected' men in the UK and you can feel the real true grit in this book. This takes you on a real, dangerous, violent, brutal and funny journey through the nightime exploits of the toughest most dangerous doorman/bouncers. An absolute classic of it's genre this book is one of the best I have ever read."
178882,2,An Awe Inspiring Show,"Alias is a truly remarkable show. Created by a writer who's cult fame and praise rivals Joss Whedon of Buffydom, J.J. Abrams created an awe inspiring show with Alias. The first season has twists and turns that keeps the viewer guessing the whole way. Rambaldi, a fictional scientist from the 15th century, who's writings and inventions continue to plague the main characters throughout the third season and beyond. The show's true creative stride won't come until next season, however, the first season has the beginning necescary for comprehension, and is also great."
178888,2,Beyond Glorious!...developing towards a theory of the euphoric!,"It's taken me nearly ten years to appreciate these intricate songs. Now that I'm older and require more sweetness and reflection in my life this album suits me fine. I first thought Marc had gone off the deep end, it just goes to show you. Favorite songs:Glorious,Under Your Wing, Come Out,Tantalise Me,Moonbathe Skin,Love in a Time of Science...there's more than a little of the surreal here isn't there? Put on your red shoes and dance the blues type of stuff.Iceland's J Johannson's electronic/symphonic wizardry so compliments Mr Almond's song stylings that it's hauntingly beautiful.You go Jay Jay! The newer release has a second disc of demos that people say are fantastic. The cover art is very different.Buy it just for that if nothing else,this one will grow on you."
178926,2,A journey into the HTTP world,"Definitely a very good book, useful for both learning topics and use as a reference after the first read. It will bring you into a 360 degree view of the HTTP protocol and everything that is strictly related with it. It's well written, easy to be read and full of images and samples. I was a bit concerned as was written back into 2002, but is still very actual.Recommended to anyone who wants to know ""a bit more"" about HTTP, it will bring you to the next level."
178986,2,Keeps Cat's out of Cupboards!,"After looking at a few options I decided to install these to keep our cat from pulling things out of the cupboard when we're not home. We realized we needed something when he got into the snack cupboard and shook a bag of sunflower seeds ALL OVER THE HOUSE, including all the bedrooms. After laughing and vaccuming it up I got these locks, installed them about a year ago and have had no more incidents since. Works Perfectly!"
179017,2,Berger Model# 54-300OP Review,"This instrument is a great value for the bucks...the OP of course, stands for optical plummet, which as any user can attest, is far superior to a plumb bob when it comes to setting up the instrument. The three leveling screws make it easy to set up, too. This instrument also comes with stadia lines, which can save time when doing rough distance checks, especially if you are by yourself! This is a good heavy duty instrument that can take some abuse and keep on performing."
179036,2,Scribes of Life,"Yea the production might not be up there, but Journalist is getting a good start in the game. Working with the legendary M.O.P. and one of the best rap artist of all time, Canibus, Journalist will be here to stay. It took a few listens to get use to this album. He's a good lyricist, better than some of these cats. If you want to hear somethin' different, pic this 1 up."
179063,2,"James Montgomery Boice's Commentary on Romans, Vol 1, Romans","As indicated by the title of Boice's four volumes on Romans, this is an expositional commentary. Not only does Boice give the reader a sufficient depth of understanding in the text, but especially helpful to those who are teaching through Romans are his illustrations and the organization of his material into a ""preachable"" style. And though the average Bible student will need other more technical commentaries to flush out his/her understanding of Romans, we find ourselves turning to Boice more and more."
179175,2,Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything,"Although this book was a required reading for my son's upcoming fall semester, I decided to read it myself. I thoroughly enjoyed reading about ""the hidden side"" of things. My son is now reading the book, and he and I enjoy discussing each chapter. Chapter 2 is my favorite, the one in which the author shows what the KKK and Real Estate Agents have in common. This book kept my interest from beginning to end. Enjoy!"
179211,2,Panasonic Handset,Handset connected to the base really quickly. Works just as well as the original. Had to buy this because one of the original handsets was lost.
179251,2,Insightful,"I felt Jeff VanVonderen did a great job explaining God's plan for family structure. I really liked this book, and plan to reread it with my husband as we are currently raising our first child who is 5 months old right now."
179271,2,I love this book!!!!,I would give this a 5 because in the first book they were concern a lot and now they have found Eggletina the girl who was missing for years. Since I‘m reading the Borrowers now I just want to see what will happen in the next book. Even Homily hated living in the dirt but she did live.
179287,2,I went to Athens,"This was written by a relative of mine, and I was delighted to find that it was still available."
179332,2,ID History,It was really hard for me to find a history reference book for Industrial Design but this one is great! Has lengthy explanations but also quick reference guides to filter through the unnecessary details
179355,2,Toilet Training,"I have potty trained my 3 children using this book (starting 24 years ago). It worked very well, the children had less accidents and were much more self confident than others. I have recommended it many times and the moms usually come back and say ""thank you so much... my child is now trained"". A must read for every parent!"
179406,2,Great New Songs from Edwin McCain,"I love Edwin McCain and this album really gives them a chance to branch out from their ballads that have been so popular from the last albums. Even so I think that the best song is Write Me a Song, a ballad in the I'll Be tradition, complete with a very memorable chorus. This album is refreshing with all of it's experimental music styles that have not been the norm. Rock, to ballads, to Gosple. I'm always happy to hear new stuff by Edwin McCain, and I can't wait for their new live album."
179427,2,Didn't think anything this awesome could be made,"I've heard this movie described as ""If the Wizard of Oz were concieved today"". Pretty good description, a girl enters a living fantasy world that she at first thinks came from her drawings. The imagery is incredible, the story detailed. Well worth having."
179540,2,Witness the Evolution of us,"Were did we come from? we were born from our moms , no I mean were did homo sapiens come from? the answers to our evolution is on BBC's Walking with Cavemen."" A prehistory timeline of our changes and life, from australopithicus to homo sapien sapien. How did invent our world languages,our house hold tools,our alphabet. The most advanched technology back then were sticks and stones and through centuries of evolution we have the internet and television. way Before our parents & grandparents these were are family members, our ancestors. If your interested in our prehistory, this is a good DVD for that. Remember if today were like back then, this DVD wouldn't exist. Thank earlier humans for evolving. see this, It's a blast into the past on a entertainment medium of the present and future."
179593,2,Gorgeous piece.,"Fast Amazon shipping (as usual). Platter is gorgeous but the Mikasa box looks a little ""worn"" ... this wouldn't be an issue except I bought this for a gift."
179647,2,Jane Eyre--Another Classic,William Hurt does an excllent job in this movie and the movie follows most of the aspects of the book. Excellent!
179702,2,Hip and Chilled,"Okay, this isn't my review. What follows is a review from Billboard magazine. But I think it accurately reflects my feelings of ""When It Falls"":Many a critic and fan have been anxiously awaiting the release of this album, the follow-up to Zero 7's globally admired ""Simple Things."" With the release of that album in 2001, Zero 7's Henry Binns and Sam Hardaker shared a wonderfully warm electronic soul vision with the world. Thankfully, the British duo did not feel the need to deviate from this winning sound on its sophomore set. Like its predecessor, ""When It Falls"" features the sublime vocal stylings of Sia Furler (news) (""Somersault""), Sophie Barker (""Passing By"") and Mozez (""Warm Sound""). Danish newcomer Tina Dico makes her Zero 7 debut on two tracks: ""The Space Between"" and ""Home."" The latter sounds like a long-lost recording from ""Ladies of the Canyon""-era Joni Mitchell (news). Rich, lush and romantic, ""When It Falls"" is aural nourishment for the soul."
179713,2,Be Smart With Your Money,"I got this from my dad 1 christmas ago ... I havn't used it since.It came with an episode of spongebob and nothing else.The controls are easy to use but aditional discs are expensiveas are the accessories. If you want strictly TV shows in black and white, and can't afford a portable DVD player, be my guest.However if you like colour... don't buy the ""Video Now Color""it's (...) and the discs are no better, just buy GBA video cartriges they hold 4 episodes of a show (and the screen is bigger and they're all in color).Be responsible with your money."
179745,2,Good Buy,I am very happy with this purchase in compare with Macy's sale both inturn of the looks and price. I hadown old one before and enjoy it's easy to use and give a good cup of coffe every time
179746,2,Its coffee time!,"What a pleasure it is to use this coffeemaker, simple instructions for use, fast, and makes a great cup of coffee..."
179767,2,"Great product, but finish needs improvement!","Overall, a very well designed and functional product. Too bad that the edges and corners of the aluminum sheet components had to be deburred, and the corners had to be rounded. If not done, the edges could cut your hands and the corners could tear your clothes or upholstery in your wehicle. Seems like fewer and fewer manufacturers are likely to completely finish their products anymore. I guess hand finishing is too expensive. That's why manufacturers are going overseas for cheap labor and hand finishing."
179808,2,Pretty cool!,This firesteel is pretty awesome! i got one for my dad and my brother for their Christmas stockings and they seemed to really like them! i was definitely entertained watching them spark up a storm!
179809,2,Fire sparks,"OK, I've tried starting a fire from a newspaper & an A4. And it's a tough task unless you've saved cotton wool or mayan staff. So I give it 3 starsUPDATE: I've learnt the proper way to start a fire from any paper :) All that was needed & I'd missed that completely was to make a small heap of magnesium filings beforehand & only then to ignite it with the sparks.5 stars!"
179825,2,Fantastic,"Great blend of top-notch musicians (Robben Ford, Jim Keltner), Jim's own fine grand piano playing, some really great tunes, and some whacky, but still mighty fine tunes make for a great cocktail here. The style is relaxed soul blues, a little bit of stride piano even. It definitely stands out, and the production, especially of the grand, is simply SUPERB! This CD helped sell me my stereo, and afterwards I got the salesperson to order me a copy (not so easy to find in Denmark). I highly recommend it!"
179834,2,too short,"I loved this book except that it was too short -- took only a few hours to read. Although the plot was good, with some surprises, adn the writing mostly very entertaining, as in the previous 2 books, I want more texture, more depth in the characters. Of course, I know that short books probably sell better, but zI hope rosenfelt gives us more next time."
179873,2,just right for measuring cupcakes / muffins,"Just fine! Exactly right size! Sturdy! Easy to ""crunch"" handles together! Only had it a week, so can't speak to oxidation issues, but I'm happy with it."
179903,2,A unique work on .NET API design,"It's not often that I see a book like this, and I do so with pleasure. This book covers best practices in developing frameworks and APIs for .NET. And it comes from a variety of different sources and perspectives. There is excellent pragmatic advice in here and it's worth a read even if you aren't doing .NET."
179949,2,Good source!!,"This set has been very useful in gaining new insights on the text of the New Testament. The biggest & only complaint i have regarding this is that it doesn't cover the entire New Testament. I would still recommend it, though."
180026,2,Exactly what I wanted,I purchased this for a child's birthday. It arrived even faster than promised and the little girl is delighted that now she can boil eggs without worrying whether they are done or not. Great gift for a beginning cook (or an old cook).
180037,2,Why We didnt Learn From the French,Read this Along W/Bernard Falls Hell in a Very small place. And you will have more Questions Who lost Vietnam. In order to not follow the Mistakes Of others You have Identify thier mistakes and Make sure you dont make the same Mistakes. Did we Under estimate our enemy.
180041,2,Hitachi EC12,I was surprised to received the Hitachi EC12 a day early. Unfortunately it had a broken filter box case. I called the company and the part was in the mail no questions asked. So far I have had this unit for over 3 years. The pressure control knob fell apart in my hand but a quick to the shop fixed that. I don't know if the knob failure was my fault or worn part. I do wish I had purchased a compressor with more horsepower but this one is a keeper. It does 87% of jobs I need.
180114,2,Looks & works great!,"I ordered three of these, and when they delivered, all the boxes were damaged on all four corners. Oh no, I thought. But inside the boxes these were carefully packaged, with plastic caps between each shelf on all four corners. Nothing was damaged except the boxes! They were relatively easy to assemble, and it didn't take me long to set up all three. I would recommend these to anyone, for just about any use since they look great too."
180143,2,la femme nikika 3rd season,"great to have full season on dvd shame we have to wait so long in between release's after all this is a show that was canceled 5years ago also you would expect some bonus features on season 1, 2, 3,such as cast interviews, bloopers, extra footage. nothing but over talking on switch by producer. 1970;s vanishing point has same producer on/off switch most of the cast is dead,but it has bonus footage just released. Also i have every episode on tape la femme nikita there wearing out just sent last season 501 to photo studio to enhance quality and put to dvd because of such slow release time. Soprano's season done, relelease dvd like everyone else.Season 1,2,3, la femme nikita on dvd is a must have 2005 home theater,the music , the locations, the people all on big screen hddvd must have for die hard LFN fans."
180146,2,Simple and easy,This is a great product for the price. It can slide apart for easy storage. The spaetzle dough falls through the holes into perfectly sized pasta. It also cleans easily.
180154,2,not bad - 3 and a half stars,"Well, as much as I dislike Katie Holmes and her squeaky voice, I got this to fill the girlie movie requirement of a rental night marathon. Forest Whitaker does have a touch with female-skewed movies. The movie was rather cute, actually. Although I wish Katie's ribs weren't showing while she was wearing the blue bikini in the beginning - why oh why can't actresses these days have a little meat on them? - she played the role with charm. And there was certainly good chemistry between her and Marc Blucas (who I had no complaints about on viewing him sans sweatshirt). The whole thing had feel of a modern fairy tale - which was obviously intended and not a bad thing. Feel-good, enjoyable escapist fare. And we all need a getaway sometimes."
180183,2,useless but fun,This book may be full of useless information but it was one of the best books i ever read. this was an easy book to read. not to wordy and not to easy. i enjoyed this book more each time i read a new chapter. you would be amazed on what type of information you will learn after reading this book.
180199,2,Informative and detailed,"This book caused quite a stir when it first came out. It had unprecedent detail, clarity and insight. It is a good book, however like most protocol books you often have to search hard to find the bits that are relevant when using it as reference. This is particular issue as this book only covers part of the story -- as there are a series of these books. By the way, there is another series of books that preceeds these that covered TCP/IP in great detail, including protocol code -- probably World Wide Web though. There may be other newer books available now that are as good or better. Also, the Internet related protocols continue to evolve so books in this domain tend to become a little dated after a couple of years. It is not that they become invalid, it is more that they become increasingly less complete."
180267,2,"Don't take my word for it, read it yourself!","Like many others, I found out when the novel was coming out, wrote it on my calendar (complete with an exclamation point) and patiently waited for July 12th. After completing the book I am now waiting patiently for the next one, and for however long it takes to write, I will be just as excited to spend my 30 bucks as I was two weeks ago.While I didn't fall in love with these characters as I have in Irving's past novels, it's his writing I love in this one. I laughed out loud every time Mr. Ramsey said ""Jack Burns!"" as a complete thought, and I wouldn't be surprised to hear that Heather's mother was written with cancer just so her wig could fly off of her head at the perfect moment.If you're an Irving fan, you know how it goes. I loved every poignant, corny, vulgar, funny and non-politically correct page!"
180280,2,Awesome,This pillow is simply awesome! I have Cervical DDD and don't get much sleep with this pillow I slept better than I have in the past year. So happy I purchased it. Gonna buy a spare for to have at my parents!!
180291,2,One of the three essential Deep Purple albums,"""Fireball"" may not reach the heights of its successor ""Machine Head"" - quite - but it is still a great album. Great riffs, memorable hooks, witty lyrics - everything you could want, including a couple of real hard rock classics (""Strange Kind Of Woman"" and ""The Mule"").Other highlights include the funky ""Demon's Eye"" and the funny ""Anyone's Daughter"". If you like ""Machine Head"" and ""Made In Japan"", you will enjoy ""Fireball"" as well."
180304,2,Great Value!,"Rugged, easy to set & read. Great for wet environments. Easily cleaned. Too new to know reliability or battery life."
180328,2,Quick and Easy,"Compact, portable, quick and easy. I use it to keep my batteries topped off whencovering an event. I use the adapter for the car when I don't have easy access toAC plug. Works great!"
180352,2,the misfits,"The misfits is a book that everyone can relate to! This book is really about name calling. A gourp of teen ager trying to stand up and say ""hey this is wrong"" and end up run for studien cancle. And there saying ""sticks and stones may brack are bones but wrods will never hurt us"" ,but it is not as easy as they think. How many people do you know that are going to vote for people that get made fun of ,but on there way to saing this they run arcoss some ever day teen age prombers. And standing up for what they blive in. Well to find out what happens to the gourp of teens you have to read this book!"
180366,2,SUPER GREAT,"anyone that rides, needs to watch this movie, greatest motorcycle movie ever mane. great familt flick, load up on the popcorn......"
180469,2,Dirt Devel Junior Vacuum,Bought this for my grandson! He loved it! He has been using it for 2 years and it's still working!
180470,2,"Cheap, but does the job!","My 16 month old is afraid of my vacuum when it is on, but when it is off he loves to play with it, so I knew I should get him his own. This one is great. It doesnt vacuum anything up, but it is just right for play and beats the $20-30 dollar ones! My son plays with it with the noise off, but there is a small button on the front that lets you turn the vacuum sound on and off! For under $12 this vacuum does the job!"
180472,2,my grandchild loved it,My grandchild loves playing with it. He loves taking it outside and vacuum the grass.
180602,2,great product,I have a hard time finding this product locally. We appreciate being able to purchae it in bulk.Thank you
180626,2,Unqualified Recommendation,"There isn't anyone out there today doing acoustic/folk music that's more clever, enjoyable, moving, and delightful than ""Sons."" Their live shows are even better than the recordings."
180645,2,Radio Review,Excellent reception for this compact listening device. Device is easy to travel with and the reception on both AM and FM is very good.
180659,2,Hindustani Tala System,"This is a brilliant recording by one of India's premier master of the art of Tabla and Hindustani Tala system. Although Ustad Nizamuddin passed away many years back, this live recording belongs in the archives of all the lovers of Indian music."
180666,2,Emma,I have always enjoyed watching this movie on my VHS tape and thought it was time to replace the tape with a DVD.
180697,2,A desert island CD,"I'd take this one to that mythic desert island. The one-two punch of ""David Watts"" and ""Death of a Clown"" are just the beginning of a fantastic album. Often compared to the Beatles' ""Revolver"" and the Beach Boys' ""Pet Sounds,"" this album might even have an edge on them, imho. Just one question, what is ""Harry Rag"" about?"
180754,2,Taking Film on The Cruise/Airlines,"Very handy. Most places CLAIM the xray machines will not damage your film. That may be true if is only done once and not highspeed film. I kept the film pack in hand while going through check points and ask for hand inspection, a couple of times when they were busy I was denied a hand inspection and ran film packet through exray."
180796,2,masterpiece!,"They might not as popular as band megadeth, slayer, testament, metallica, kreator, and all those major thrash band but the album title ABSOLUTE POWER really sum up the music!i'm still looking for the cd till today (with the right price off course)while this is the only band full length album release, its greatness is something that cannot be denied, the title track is a pure traditional straight forward thrash song but wht make this album really special is the variety of the song style, ""nice dreams"" for example will reminds you of iron maiden & judas priest both the riff and surprisingly the high pitch vocal. overall the album is awesome from start to finish and there's no really any weak track. lets hope it will be remastered or at least get a re release."
180871,2,John Wayne Collection,Of all John Wanes movies this is one of my favorite. Not only does it have John Wayne but Donna Reed now what could you ask for. I love this movie so much I watch it often & each time it gets better. So many GOOD actors in it & such a great love story. Fact is my copy is getting bad & I'm going to have to get another one myself.I can not say enough how great this movie is.
180887,2,Review from a not-quite Fan of Jazz,"Sheila shows that she has a wider range of style than is probably expected of her. I bought this album knowing it was jazz, even though I am not a big fan of that genre. My first thought was ""Sheila E. doing jazz?? That's interesting"". I gotta tell you, I was pleasantly surprised. She seems just as comfortable on this album as any of her other releases. I feel she maintains the quality I have come to expect from her, even if her last albums did not sell as well as her first two. She sets a relaxing mood with her smooth latin jazz sound, but in no way is her album ""boring"". I would recommend this album be put on when you want to relax, but still ""get your groove on""!!"
180998,2,Thanks,This book came in pretty quickly with plent time to spare before class started. Book is in great shape. 5 star service.
181019,2,"Best Sandles, Decent Price",I went to Bermuda for 3 months in the Fall and had brought 4 pairs of the cheap $2 sandles with me from Target and Walmart. Within two weeks because I was walking alot all 4 pairs had worn heels right through the soles and I had blisters from them. So needless to say I NEEDED new sandles and that's when I met REEF. I bought one pair of the brown ones (brown is so the new black) and I wore them for 2 and a half months straight and sometimes doing more walking then I did the first two weeks and you can barely see the imprint of my foot in these AND NO BLISTERS.So if you need sandles and want the comfort and long term investment then go REEF :)
181043,2,Great Photo Electric Sensor Smoke Alarm,"I installed these Alarms in closed door Bedrooms, Alarm is designed for sensing small smoldering fires ,before it develops into a larger fire,this is in addition to Hallway alarms already installed .I feel, Bedrooms with Closed doors at night, need their own protection .Very easy to install , nicely designed and looks great .Highly Recommended"
181072,2,"Their first, their best","This is a must own for all RAB fans. This is HRL's very first CD and I think it is their best. Great mixture of original songs and classic rockabillys. Don't miss them if you happen to be in San Diego. This CD is hard to find, if you happen to see one... grab it."
181117,2,The Best CD in the World,"This is a must buy cd. It includes Redman, Method Man, Xibit, and DMX. The rap and rock in this cd is awsome. The intro and outro are both cool too. So if you're a Limp Bizkit fan and don't have this cd, then I suggest you go out to Wal-Mart or K-Mart and buy this awsome cd. The unedited version cd is even cooler but I had to get the edited one. My five best rated songs are My Generation, Rollin'(Air Raid Vehicle), Hot Dog, Rollin'(Urban Assault Vehicle), and Take A Look Around."
181169,2,"Works very well, the only improvement","would be to increase the vertical spacing between the outlets by about 2 inches (50mm) so that larger devices could be plugged in. It is no worse than other multi-outlet adapters but hey, just being a copy of others doesn't say a lot."
181185,2,a wonderful but difficult book to read.,"I can't explain what prompted me to buy this book but I'm glad that I did. The author of each essay has a child with special needs. Some with problems that we can't even imagine having to deal with. Each has taken the time to express how the birth and life of his child has changed his life. These fathers are truly special. I admired each one, not just because they had overcome (or were trying to overcome) enormous obstacles, but because they accepted one of God's children and expressed such love at such trying times. We all think that we could rise to the occasion and parent a child with special needs but these men are doing it and doing it better than I could ever hope to do myself. It's not too often that you read a book written by someone living through the experience who makes no attempt to get credit for what he's done. If you don't mind shedding a tear or two (for joy or sorrow), I recommend it to any mother or father."
181204,2,About What I Expected,"I had seen bits and pieces of this film. It is a made for TV movie that the SCI-FI Channel put together. It doesn't have much to do with the book series that it was based on. For what it is, it isn't a bad movie. Brad Johnson is the lead role, and he is always a good actor, even though he started out as the Marlboro Man. I would recommend anyone who has an appreciation for original science fiction stories to check this one out. It may get you interested in the books."
181341,2,Another great love story of transformation and triumph,"Just finished this book this morning and it only took me one day to read it. Lindsey never disappoints and usually a rape makes the happily ever after rather idiotic and unnatural, but since he is the one who is raped and can't help but enjoy himself, it made for a very interesting story. Revenge is sweet and the ending is even sweeter. Try this new twist on the historical romance."
181408,2,Classic,"A brilliant collection of gags, wheezes and wind-ups, written in a fluid classic style. Must have been a large effort to collect all the stories included, many of which will have you laughing out loud. Every person alive should own this book, it's that good. Superb."
181436,2,Fantastic Pair and Great Bargain,"For the Price, these are as good a set of Goggle you will ever get or need. Perfect for the average or advanced swimmer."
181438,2,Pretty good goggles.,"It took me a while to get them fitting right, but they are fairly comfortable. Definitely NOT fog free!"
181443,2,"Truc,k Extender Big Success","I bought my truck extender from Amazon and because I was in no hurry, shipping was free. Cool! Received it about 7 days after I ordered it. Took longer to open the box than to install it on my 2006 Dodge Dakota pickup. Works excellent. Now I haul my three 12' kayaks in a short bed pickup with no problem. Absolutely no complaints. Works as advertised. Every other site offered it for $99.95 plus shipping. On Amazon, I got it for $79.95, shipping included. Oh ya!"
181450,2,Tracing Strauss's influence,"Norton's book is a an attempt to trace the influence of Strauss and Straussianism in the U.S. Academy and in the imperialist politics that govern the new U.S. interventionism abroad. It is a refreshing, immensely readable account of the legacy that Leo Strauss's thought and work has had over the course of the past 40-50 years. Unlike other commentators, Norton does not diabolicize Strauss, yet nonetheless points to the aspects of his thought that opened it up to the conservative and neo-conservative embrace. She demonstrates how Strauss's thought (and other conservative thinkers) have been instrumentalized and transformed by the neoconservative revolution and its hegemonic project."
181490,2,great,"i've first heard of Craig Armstrong because of Mazzive attack,& i think he's a v.talenetd musicain.in this marvellous debut,my fav.are the two tracks featuring vocalists. ""this love"" is as beautiful&touching as any CT's songs & ""let go out tonight""is v.sweet. others tracks like ""storm"" & ""sly11"" are also great."
181503,2,MUST NEED FOR EVERY CAT AND KITTEN,"It's amazing, my cat's go crazy when I take it out. On one of them I tied a little furry mouse toy to the end and they go bananas. I'm getting a few more - for almost every room in the house!"
181519,2,this book ruled,i read this book in fifth grade and it rocked i know thaat i remember it i wish i could get it again and it's worth investing time because of it's suspenseful nature and inventive writing
181553,2,Holds attention,"Many of the books I have bought for my daughter were unableto her attention for long. Sometimes I had to either bribe or force her to read a book to the end. This is one I had no problem getting her to finish, and she did so in just a few days, something she had previously found boring and unimaginable. She loves the characters and the storyline. Whenever I asked where in the book she was she would tell me what each character was doing. She usually only gave me thepage number. As soon as she had finished this book she asked for the next one. So that review I should be posting soon."
181574,2,fantastic,i didn't know about rialto yet. i was just passing by london and listened to a few tracks in a store. i bought it and i am sure it was one of the best records i've ever bought.
181576,2,WHY DID I WAIT SO LONG TO USE THEM...,"I saw them in the supermarket - they sell upscale kitchen goodies ( $$$), and I thought that they looked pretty stupid. For $19.95, I thought that they were expensive. For some unknown reason, I bought a pair... so unlike me as I always ponder and research before I buy things like this.Long story short, I tried them on and they felt a little tight and so I promptly put them in a drawer, meaning to return them, unused. They sat in the drawer for about 6 months, until the other day when I had a lot of onions to chop. As I stood there in tears, my husband said 'why don't you try those weird looking goggles that you bought?'I have worn them every day since - I've been doing a lot of cooking and chopping. I LOVE THEM. They really do what they are suppose to and I don't see myself from behind them, so I imagine that I look very cool and cute.What a great idea, they work much better on my face than just sitting in a drawer."
181582,2,THE REAL CHARLIE,"EVERYTHING CHARLIE HAD EVER DONE IS EXCITING. BUT THIS ALBUM ""PICTURES AND PAINTINGS"" IS THE ULTIMATE CHARLIE. IF YOU LIKE CHARLIE RICH YOU WILL LOVE THIS."
181587,2,"Fun, fun, fun!","The traditional animation look of the new Larryboy is wonderful! It reminds me of classic UPA (""Underdog"", ""Mr. Magoo"", etc.) -- kids and adults will love it. Read a news release about this video and was interested to see that Big Idea partnered with veteran cartoon studio Cornerstone Animation to reprise this nostalgic animation style. The moral message is delivered effectively by the magic of top-quality animation. My family loves the new Larryboy!!!"
181606,2,Rip Capabilities of a combo blade,"This blade replaced a 24 tooth exclusive rip blade (Freud also, in the same price range). I can tell no significant difference in the quality and effort needed to rip maple. And it doesn't splinter cross grain plywood badly. Seems a good value."
181657,2,Daisy rock debutante butterfly guitar,It was delivered very fast esp around Xmas . The guitar is beautiful perfect for any Lil girl (wish the amp came w it tho ).. The design n colour looks exact as pictured
181705,2,Elvis has left the building,"I am not a big Elvis fan, but people like me don't need to have people like Thomas Murphy know about it. I went in to the movie hoping for a good time and left the movie haveing had a good time. The only thing i wasn't looking forward for was watching David Arquette, you ruined it David, it could have been a five star film. Oh wait, Ice-Cube, or Icedtea or Ice something, that guy sucked big time too. But other than that the movie was awesome. I believe Costner was at his best in this movie, he was the perfect part for the role. Kurt Russell could have gone either way. Demian Lichtenstein is a good director, but i would have rather seen John Woo direct this film, great job none the less. Viva Las Vegas!!"
181782,2,The Dancier and Jazzier GIlles Peterson,"The main difference between Gilles and Patrick is that Patrick is not as eclectic and dancier. The selection of music here seems a DJ mixed version of a more underground version of Hedkhandi albums. A pure heavenly mix album for a afternoon at or a house party on a beach. Its tracks are seemlessly mixed unlike Gilles whom usually let the songs just fade in and out of each other. The tracks are dancy yet soothing, Underground yet happy and finger tapping. Time now to grab PF01 and see if it is as good as this sequel."
181804,2,Stunning video detail,This Sony Handy cam has the best recorded picture I have seen. Even in low light it is able to focus and bring out colour. The zoom also remains crystal clear with no grain.The still photos are not as good which was a bit of a disapointment. On the whole a great bit of kit.
181829,2,Miles + Sample Loops = Another Classic!,"This was Miles' last CD, which was finished up shortly after his death. It's him playing horn riffs over the grooves & rhythm sample loops of a hip-hop DJ called Ezy Mo Bee (no other musicians appear on this disc). It's a great disc! Worth it just for the tracks ""Blow"", and ""Chocolate Chip"", though all the tracks have merit. Jazz purists are probably cringing, but if you like it hip-hop funky, you'll love it. One of my favorite ""final phase"" Miles CDs. As usual, Miles points the way once again!! Way to go Miles, love you always."
181840,2,very sexy,i bought this not knowing what the front looked like but its very sexy and my boyfriend loved it.. :) couldnt be happier.. i highly recommend it i wore it under my dress then had him remove my dress he was very surprised and loved it..
181855,2,Solid product with limitations,"The adapter works good for relatively low resolutions and for applications that do not require excessive dynamics such as Word, emails, browsing, messaging etc.It is quite useful for my case that I just need to extend my work desktop. I am not going to use for watching video, gaming etc. Need to clearly understand the natural limitations of this product and you will be happy to use it for which it is for."
181893,2,It's worht it's price.,"for the price it costs, results are better than expected, so far no problem with it....Great for weekends and having fun."
181901,2,A great source of ideas (for stroytellers),"This book is a great addition for the storyteller in general. Players may even use it, but you, the master of the world is the one to really explore it. In a few words, this book, and specially the rare artifacts in it, gave me great plot ideas, and not only for a technocratic based chronicle, but all kinds of ways. The weird item section is a great source for dealing with marauders, nephandi and some disconnected mages. Another good thing in the book is that, with it, you can control the ""overpowered"" kind of player, you know, the one that spends every xp he got on ways of busting .... Put a X-14 A Thunderhead on his face and see what happens... good to shut some mouths... In short, it's a great source book, note the best of them all, but a good one. But be wise to what you give to your players. And a recomendation: never ever let a player got the technocratic exo-skeleton. Believe me, you'll regret it."
181905,2,a party in a slim plastic case,"A really fun and well executed ""album"" ....full of beautiful energy and great musicianship. Its one of those cds I can listen to over and over again and of which I will never tire. Alfredo de la Fe is a Master."
181917,2,Keeps our stuff dry.,Easy to put together and adds valuable sitting space to our backyard. We store our chair cushions and some small patio items in them (we bought two). Easy to move around. Items stay dry but watch for the occasional spider and other insects that can get it.
181928,2,DVD features are a Hed Head's delight,"Like most of the reviewers here, I was blown away by John Cameron Mitchell's performance as Hedwig. Funny, sad, campy, reflective: If anybody had a more electrifying stage or screen presence in 2001, bring 'em on.I am writing to point out to fans of the movie/CDs that the DVD has a couple of cool features:1) The show-stopping ""Tear Me Down"" was filmed live and thus is a different version than both the original off-Broadway cast recording and, for some reason, the movie soundtrack itself. And it rocks, baby.2) The featurette on the making of Hedwig is worth the price of admission alone. It includes home video of JCM trying out the Hedwig character in a nightclub setting, mounting the musical, how the film version came to be and JCM's successors in the stage production. It is hands down the best making-of feature I have seen on a DVD."
181931,2,Kitty baby,Gets off to a slow start but you can see where its going. Been seeing it advertised for a while and thought maybe I should actually see it.
181948,2,One of the best items I have purchased at Amazon.,"I could not believe this product will be exactly the way it was described at the web site. But it was, brand new. In fact, I am more than satisfied with it."
181987,2,USB Car Cigarette,"Good product, a lot more durable than the average car cigarette charger. It seems like it will last a pretty long time."
182020,2,Great if you own multiple consoles.,This little thing removes the hassle of moving your TV around every time you want to switch consoles. Unfortunately you can't have the other end hooked up to more than one console at a time without interference but that's much less of a hassle than moving the TV.
182030,2,Fabulous,"An incredible CD. Absolutely the quintessential Hardy. My favourites are Comment Te Dire Adieu, Les Madeleines and of course Ma Jeunesse Fout Le Camp, while Si Mi Caballero showcases her wonderful voice.I first heard her music when I was a little girl in the 1960's. Of course then I only heard the English versions (""Only you can do it"" and ""If we are only friends""). However, when Hardy sings in her native French, there is no comparison. Listen to the French versions of her music which are by far superior to the English. I recently ""rediscovered"" Francoise Hardy and bought a bunch of her cd's. I have not been able to listen to anything else since."
182071,2,Power Rangers DVD,My 10 yr old searched the internet for this find and I was glad to order it. It arrived promptly and in described condition. We are very pleased with our purchase.
182090,2,"Entertaining and Funny -- oh yeah -- and Informative, Too!","Just about every third sentence in Ms. Truss's book made me chuckle, or even laugh out loud. The entire book is filled with amusing stories, anecdotes, and examples. Yes, there are subtle differences between American and English grammar rules; however, this book is so entertaining and charming, it is a gem to read."
182145,2,celtic women a new journey,"always a good entertainment DVD....have the other one....this one is great, but I miss some of the ladies that were present in their other DVD....still an enjoyable DVD worth watching again and again."
182169,2,Saving the world one menstrual cycle at a time,"This is a genius product. I realize there are many such products that exist or have been existing. I am a huge fan of the idea. It's easy to use. Method 2 for insertion is probably the easier. The only problem I have is the feeling of being sucked out from the inside when I remove the cup to empty its contents. I wish there were some other way that the seal could be broken. It's nice to think I may never need pads or tampons ever again. It's nice to think that I may make a huge impact through my life by preventing so much waste from ending up in a landfill. Highly recommended! Go buy yourself, your girlfriend(s), or any woman in your life a Diva Cup."
182176,2,Two thumbs WAY up!,"This item is absolutely excellent! It shipped extremely quickly, and exceeded every expectation that I had. I am so impressed! I highly recommend to anyone and EVERYONE female."
182218,2,A book worth owning,"I first found out about this book at the library. After utilizing its teachings for 3 weeks, I knew that I needed to own a copy. The practice is useful and the descriptions/explanations are just right. I am proud to own this book."
182291,2,Love abounds,This is an excellent and comprehensive anthology that features poets normally excluded from compilations of love poetry.
182342,2,An homage to Dumas,"This is a great read. It is loosly based on the Three Musketeers by Dumas, but based in his fantasy world of Dragaera. It has a sly sense of humor, and amazing dialogue. I actually caught myself laughing out loud while reading it at times."
182359,2,What a great team of actors!,"I read the book and I loved it. I was curious how the movie would be since the book is so rich in scenes, in legend. Then I saw the film and I must say it's incredibly well done - honest, great interpretation, beautiful images. I'm glad I have it!"
182364,2,Terrific actressess and Micheal Vartan a beautiful man,"A beautiful movie! Julianne stunning since her departure from ER! The story line was wicked and twisted. Micheal Vartan, what can I say? You are a beautiful man and a rising star...you are versatile and acting just comes naturally too you...Loved the movie!"
182366,2,Great Movie,"I loved this movie, and when i first saw it on TNT i knew i had to buy the DVD when it came out. This movie puts a whole new twist on the Arthurian legends which i find amazingly rare these days. All of the actors and actresses in this movie were phenomenal, and their roles were perfect for them. Even though, like all Arthurian legends, the end is depressing, it was still a really intriguing and inspiring movie."
182402,2,A fun game that doen't take too long to play,My wife likes to play games so I bought this as a Christmas gift. A game doesn't take long. It is a good two player game and would recommend it.
182443,2,Excellent guide,"Well written, current information on the best sharpening techniques using both modern and current technology. Provides detailed insight into how and when to sharpen your tools."
182449,2,A good review,"A good review of the basic issues, but left me wanting a little more substance and a little less psychoanalysis."
182639,2,Excellent,Excellent book. Meticulously supported by details and logic. Make sure to have a dictionary on hand or to have taken a university level economics class.
182721,2,goooooood product!!,"This product does what it's supposed to, for sure. I was using it for AC, then within two months I figured out my overheating problem and flipped the switch to operate a ceramic heater. WORKS GREAT!! Worth every penny!"
182729,2,Nobody can see Mega lyrically,"This album is the hottest of the year, i cant stop listening to it. Mega's flow tells his story perfectly, his rhymes are deep, you can feel this man's troubles in his songs. Every beat and rhyme on this cd is perfect, the beats are on point wit his flow, like verbal graffiti only Mega could flow over that beat smoothly. If this CD doesnt go triple then rap music should just end."
182794,2,Good ole soundtrack,If you like the original Rudolph sound track this is the CD. If fun to listen to it without the video and realize what funny voices these singers came up with.
182938,2,Kozak Magic,"I've used the Kozak dry wash cloths for years. I recently purchased the motorcycle cloth. The smaller size is easy to zip back in its bag and carry in the motorcycle bag for quick cleaning. It's unreal that these cloths do not scratch or swirl, even on our black bike."
183039,2,Another great book,"This is a wonderful follow up to the first book. Again, amazing stories from all walks of faith- atheists, Jewish, Fundamentalist, etc. Shorter chapters than the first book, but it kept me wanting to keep reading the next story. Would recommend it to all."
183075,2,Ty Beanie Babies - July the Birthday Bear,Colorful with birthstone on its nose. Nice touch with the cake and candles and the month stitched in. Great collector's item.
183086,2,what an incredible fusion of alternative music,"Well, what can I say about this incredible band? The powerful percussion along with the brilliant playing of classical instruments such as the Wood flute, the celtic harp and the Uilleann pipes makes this music amazing. They seem to be able to mix traditional indian singing, tribal and celtic music with modern day bass beats, an impressive feat by anyone. Buy this album if you haven't already, and buy the second volume, it's just as good! What an amazing album!"
183103,2,There's sum things about you I wish I never knew....,"Punk with a brain. Not just a band with a cool video and a catchy hook. Witty, smart lyrics that make you laugh and think and pogo your little beatle boots off...Thats how I would describe ALL. This is my favorite album by the rawkers. From the cute kid charm of 'Frog' to the worldly aware ""just living"", ""sum"" and ""educated idiot"" you will dig this amazingly fun and wildly amusing bunch of punky tunes. Think Pinhead Gunpowder or Cringer but only more cool and fun and smart..."
183236,2,Fun movie for the family,"This is a heartwarming film with plenty of comedy. The scenes in Disneyland were the reason I made the purchase. Disney fans will have fun not only seeing the park from 1962 but also picking out the areas where the film makers ""rearrange"" the park."
183242,2,Just another remake?,"(Is The Ring just another remake? Or Otello? Or My Fair Lady? What do you think this 1962 movie is, that you all seem to find so ""original""? Surely not Melville!)The casting in this production is exceptional and the staging truly ""original."" My only qualm is with the singers' diction, especially in the larger scenes. Unless you can get a copy of the libretto to follow, this might not be the version for you.I have yet to find another production, however, so this is probably your best bet. Maybe the DVD release will have subtitles (English for English? Stranger things have happened)."
183264,2,Great Alternative to Water Delivery - Save $$$,"Once I realized how much I was spending on bottled water delivery, since the prices had risen along with the price of the gas it takes to deliver them, I knew there had to be a better solution, both for my bank account and for the environment. And this PUR water bottle is the solution. It will last for up to a whole year (with the included filters) and it costs less than what I spent in one month on delivery bottled water. And the water tastes great. Even better, not only am I doing something good for my body, I'm doing something good for the environment by not buying bottled water that burns tons of diesel fuel being delivered all over the city. Municipal water systems are far and away the cheapest and most environmentally-friendly way to get your fresh water, and with the PUR water bottle, it will have the purity and taste you expect from a delivery bottle. This product is a win/win solution."
183281,2,alrighty then,"i like this album, but i'm not crazy about it. the first cd, all the songs sound the same from the beat to what he's singing about. the second cd, is alright, but it could've been better."
183302,2,good value,this is a pretty decent survival/ tactical blade i really like the blade retension on it. I have it mollied to a edc pack take it in the truck with me everywhere i go!
183308,2,A comprehensive guide,"If you are planning to use the CotD in your campaign then this book is a must. Otherwise, the dracoliches, new monsters, dragon spells & deadly Sammaster created magic could liven any broken DM's dreams to crush an insolent party. I recommend this book because of it's possibilities, if fully explored by the right DM."
183350,2,ASOMBROSO CD,"POR FIN A LA VENTA ESTE CD TAN ESPERADO ES MARAVILLOSO TODO DE PRINCIPIO A FIN ME ENCANTA FERGIE AUNQUE TMB LOS BEP EN GENERAL VALE MUCHO LA PENA FERGALICIOUS UNA MUY BUENA CANCION OJALA SEA EL SEGUNDO SENCILLO,ESTE CD ES EL MEJOR QUE PUEDE AVER JAJAA NO SE ARREPENTIRAN"
183511,2,The Orignial Runaway Bride,"This Frank Capra classic is all about the chemistry between Colbert and Gable--wow does it work! The uptown girl runaway bride (how current!) and the downtown and down on his luck reporter go from the fox and hound to...well the foxy and the hound.The banter and the moments, from the hitchhiking lesson Colbert gives Gable to the flimsy wall of Jericho Gable gives Colbert are gems.The film has one of the best wedding-scene endings in movie history (the others being ""The Graduate"" ""Four Weddings and a Funeral"" and ""The Philadelphia Story""), complete with what has to be one of the oldest helicopters ever put on film.Pardon me while I get my tin trumpet, folks..."
183535,2,outstanding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"in this album Lavoe/Colon touches on a child like song ""Ghana'e"" ""abulita"" sings about Willie's and Hector's Grandma's unforgettable pieces of salsa music"
183587,2,Anime romantic comedy lovers everywhere will love this one!,"Hello there! If you love Romantic Comedies like Love Hina or Please Teacher, you're going to enjoy Happy Lesson: Mama Mia Ova series. After following Chitose through fourteen episodes of man abuse mayhem by 7 beautiful women, you would think that there wouldn't be anymore insanity left. However, that my anime loving friends, is were you would be wrong! The beginning starts off hilarious with an alternate version of the very first episode. Next, you join the whole family as they take a vacation at a quiet sea side resort. And finally, the holiday season will never be the same after you've spent a crazy Christmas with Minazuki, Hazuki and the five Moms. Poor Chitose, We only watch what he goes through with these girl for an hour or two. But he has to deal with them 24-7!A must see, must own, Romantic comedy! Enjoy!"
183662,2,A revealing look into Jesus The Christ,"The author, Levi, does the whole Nostradamus thing in the middle of the night when all are quiet and asleep and there is no noise in the spiritual atmosphere. He looks into the 'Akashic Records' (as did Edgar Cayce) and there he learns the life story of Jesus the Christ.If you are familiar with Edgar Cayce, then maybe you may see some interest in this book. Reincarnation, alternative historical references, collective cosciousness; interesting at that, Look deeper to find the answers to questions no one likes unearthing."
183668,2,The BIology Problem Solver,"A well organized review material for undergrad levelled general biology. Different from heavy volumed, too broadly covered other biology textbooks, this book focuses on important topics and guides from easy questions to challenged ones. Especially, for the biological functional aspects, this book allows lot of portion and makes it more efficient to get high scores in exams. I studied this book with Campbell's Biology (4th ed.) to prepare GRE Subject test and got over 95% score two years ago.Highly recommendable biology book to summarize overall course works and prepare for any undergrad level-biology exams. The only drawback of this book is the relatively weak coverage of modern molecular biology section."
183676,2,well organized summary of Freud's work,"As would be expected, the Ego, Superego, and Id are prominent players in Professor Hall's summation of Freudian theory. A less well known facet of Freudian principles, the role of psychic energy in the development of personality, is prominently featured; Hall labels this Freud's most brilliant discovery. Thought it is a slim volume, the information is dense. The entire body of Freud's work that Hall is summarizing was originally published in several thousand pages. To attempt to highlight the more important passages would result in the entire text colored in yellow highlighter. In short, the book itself is a well-organized, clearly presented set of notes on Freudian theory."
183767,2,Myth and Yarn,"I loved ""The Knitting Goddess"". It gave me a new perspective on my second-favorite hobby, combined my two favorite hobbies (knitting and reading), and gave me lots to think about. Highly recommended!"
183809,2,cup,"Great price for a good product. Prompt delivery. The first cup I received got a chip out of the enamel after just 10 days. I contacted the seller, and they replaced the cup promptly, no hassle. They did not even need the damaged cup returned (I tossed it)."
183832,2,"Not for learning, but nice DVD","This DVD has some great performances and examples of banjo styles , but it is not a training /lesson DVD as I expected and presented as. I returned it for one with lessons"
183860,2,FUN TO READ. RELAXING.,I have read Sue Grafton's A to N books. I have enjoyed them all. Them seem to take me away to another life. Which does not bother mine. They are indeed light reading as well as fun to read. She has made Kinsey the girl next door as well as a female Spencer for Hire. I can not wait for the others to be printed. We still have O to Z to hear about.
183876,2,Very handy!,Bought this to keep in the kitchen. It's very small but very springy and easy to use. My daughter loves to play with it as well.
183885,2,Great Add-on,"We have 3 closets in our home with configurations kits in them and we love them! These add-on shelves are a perfect match to the configurations closet systems. It's amazing how much you can optomize your space with only 2 more shelves! You can put them side by side to make one long shelf or vertical like the picture shows. In the box, you get 2 shelves and 4 brackets. They are very easy to attach to your existing configurations system. Very easy to take on an off to rearrange. I'm about to order another add-on kit : )"
183886,2,Ankle hi review,They fit great.Just what I needed. It's hard to find these in department stores. I have big legs and dont like wearing socks. Nylons fit better. The shorter they are the more comfortable. My feet need the comfort while wearing shoes.
183899,2,Excellent Find!,"I just stumbled upon Taylor Smith while browsing the books section in my local wholesale club. I bought two books Jackie Collins and Taylor Smith.Jackie Collins is my favorite author so I had an idea of what to expect. I had never heard of Taylor Smith but the sneak peek of the story on the back cover grabbed my attention quickly. It did not stop for a moment during the entire book.Watching and rooting for Mariah as she searches for the answers as to what really happened in Vienna, was great reading! This book will grab your attention from page 1 and will not let go!This was a deliciouly spellbinding read from start to finish. I highly recommend it!"
183915,2,a good item to have on a realy dark night..,batt;s are easy to get to..light is good..a flashing setting would have been a good setting..maybe later they will build one..a good deal for the money..easy to take care of..kids love it ..paul
183958,2,Truly a book to read more than once !!!!!!!,"My father is the author of this book and I remember when he gave me a copy to read, I started and couldn't put it down until I finished it. This book keeps you focus from the beginning to the end. It speaks the truth about his life has a child, husband, father, and about his loving spiritual mother. My father believed in his mother teachings and he has instilled that in his 4 children. There is a lesson to be learn in this book for everyone!! I simply asked that you pick up a copy today and enjoy! Lets' save our children, because they are truly the future.Son of Author,Craig ThomasWillie L. ThomasDec. 26, 1948-Sept. 26, 2005"
184022,2,Worthy of an upgrade to Blu-Ray,"This was one of my all-time favorite television series, although the lack of a showdown between Swearingen/Bullock vs Hearst was a bit disappointing in Season 3. Deadwood was one of about six or seven dvds in my collection that I thought was worthy of upgrading to Blu-Ray. I kept waiting for the price to come down, then finally pulled the trigger when it dipped below $60. I see it's currently back up to $80. This price of this set is more volatile than the stock market!"
184024,2,Inspiring and effective,"I bought this tape because I was tired of being out of shape. I continue with it because it's easy, fun and incredibly effective. I lost 1 3/4 inches from my waist in 2 weeks. The 20 minutes in the am and pm format works well for me because I know that I can get through 20 minutes. Callan is easy to follow and very inspiring. Oh, to be as flexible as she is! I'm working on it!"
184042,2,"An excellent, useful book","While at first I thought O'Reilly's new ""developer's notebook"" series seemed a bit hokey, this book is extremely useful. It's concise and to the point, but full of good examples and information. A plus of the small size is that it's more to-the-point and cheaper than a typical O'Reilly book (which very often seem to ramble on and on about marginally useful information, seemingly in order to justify their $45+ price tags)."
184145,2,Micra Multitool,I ordered two of these tools as stocking stuffers for my sons at Christmas. They were pleased with the tool and used it that morning to help open the packaging of the other gifts they received.They have pocket knives but they both said that they like this little tool better than their other knives.
184176,2,Almost Perfect Multi Tool,"I am not a huge fan of the ""multitool"" they tend to be rather large and are typically carried on the belt which I hate. This little guy is excellent. Small enough to carry in your pocket with out much attention yet heavy duty enough for serious projects. Leatherman did almost everything right on this one. If they could lighten it up a little and add a spring action for the pliers it would be 100% perfect. I'm amazed at the number of tools they were able to fit on it. 2 thumbs up! The only problem I had was when I tried to clip a zip tie with the cutters on the pliers it got stuck and took a bit of effert to get them apart.Update: Found another problem the flat head screw driver bits are very hard to deploy. I busted a piece of my nail off and got a nice slice down the middle of my knuckle on my thumb trying to get them out. I don't think I should need a tool to deploy my tools on my multitool. I still really like it though."
184189,2,Style Guide useful to date,"I have purchased the book 3 years ago for my image business. I have read it and was an inspiration point for me many times, although there is information that could have been more developed.What I liked most is the fact that the authors are describing and analizing also paintings in regards to the morphology of the body and style.I disagree that the book is outdated. It is not, for the one who knows how to use it. However, it could become a bigger compendium in absolute all chapters if would get re-edit it with more detailed information.Mrs. Carla Mathis (AICI CIM) is a Lady of Image Consulting and many of us have learned from her, either from her Image school or from the publishings."
184298,2,Just what I wanted,"I was hesitant to replace my old pocket leatherman, as I'd grown to love the scissor main tool, but already I've found multiple uses for the pliers in this model. Great tool, glad I got it."
184303,2,Fascinating family history,"The true history of a Southern slaveholding family, pre- and post-Civil War, the heirs of the famous ""Cotton is King"" U.S.Senator, James Henry Hammond, which is told through their own letters, and the excellent interpretations of Carol Bleser.The word, ""slaveholding"" may give you a shudder, but this family had its share of troubles and sorrows. On a different scale than their former slaves, of course, but troubles nonetheless. And then there are happy occasions-the births, marriages...it's life, good times and bad, through one of the most tumultuous times in American history. My only quibble is that I want to know even more, in depth, about all of these people - the letters and Ms. Bleser's essays were a great start, now I want even more!Highly recommended."
184310,2,Fantastic!,"This is one of my favorite cookbooks. Beautifully presented, with easy to make recipes that won't disappoint. A couple of favorites are the maple glazed pork tenderloin and the Rustic Chicken. Tasty dishes with easy to find ingredients. Will be using this for years to come."
184487,2,Realistic Tachometer,Good tach for people who don't need an 8k.Wanted a 6k for my older V8. Made for mounting on horizontal surface like dash so had to fabricate mount for my use.
184496,2,Creepy!!,"The scariest part of this film is not the zombies eating people, it is not the fact that these horrible actors and actresses were given jobs, it is not the eerie, yet soothing, jacuzzi jazz soundtrack. It is the ""child"" played by 27 year-old Peter Bark. He's old, he wears a Marv Albert rug, and he's completely scary without trying to be. He runs like a girl and he wears his pants up to his armpits. Did I mention he has an unnatural love for his mother? Watch this movie, the vision of this ""boy"" will haunt you for the rest of your life."
184555,2,Thought provoking!,Went to see this with family...walked into the theater not knowing what the movie was about. After the movie i thought it was entertaining...but i could not stop thinking about the movie. Events or actions take place in your life and they create a turning point. Highly recommend this movie!
184609,2,Quick delivery,"This is really fast delivery, but the product doesn't have much in detail of the procuct usage information."
184623,2,The Women,Great movie. I enjoy it every time. The beauty of this movie is that it is all women and you keep expecting to see a man but you don't they have made it so well that you think when a man is mentioned or there is a conversation with a man you will see or hear him but you never do. Great cast great acting Highly recommended.
184653,2,"Haha,","This is hilarious, the way people ALAWAYS b*tch about stuff these days. Seriously, EVERY hard rock and metal album since January 1st, 2000 has gotten sh*t on from EVERYBODY, look around on this site, you'll hardly ever find an album with 4 or more stars, because everybody throws a fit when an artist does even the SLIGHTEST thing different. I'm a fan of all sub-genres of hard rock and metal, and Orgy are not that high on my list, and yes, Candy@ss is, in my opinion, their best album, but grow up, people. Go change yourselves, because I smell a strong hint of sh*t whenever I read a review on this site."
184690,2,As advertized,"I bought one of these a few years ago for camp, survival and emergency use. The business part of saw compacts nicely and fits beautifully into a little snuff-box sized tin. So it is great for a medium sized survival kit. (I am afraid that for a pocket kit, you will need to make do with an SAS Survival Wire Saw. They work but are no picnic.)What surprises me about the Pocket Chainsaw is how often I go to get this thing for regular jobs around the yard. It makes quick work of small to medium sized branches and is much more versatile than any fixed blade saw. There are some jobs that no other tool seems to work for. (At least, none of the ones I've got.)A bit of essential advice, though: keep this thing clean and well lubricated. ASAP after I am done using this, I brush it clean, then douse it down with WD-40 before storing it away."
184701,2,Works as advertised,"This bike stand is easy to set up -- you don't even need a screwdriver. It just all fits together nicely. They provide hardware to secure the top if you're worried about it falling over (although it seems pretty stable even without it). It's nicely finished, and provides a great way to store two bikes in a very limited space. As my review title says, it just does exactly what it's supposed to do."
184712,2,An inspiring and emotional account of courage and miracles,"I believe readers of every faith and race would enjoy thisbook -- as a testiment to the human will and as the fulfillment of anancient biblical prophesy. I would encourage anyone to read this book and be inspired by Shmuel Yilma's family, his people, and the accomplished life he now leads in Israel, leading the way for many to follow.To Mr. Yilma, his family and the wonderful soul who was his grandmother I say, thank you and Shalom!!"
184713,2,Wonderful book with excellent information!,"After reading so many guinea pig care books with often inaccurate to down-right dangerous information, this book was a delightful surprise!! Wonderful and truthful information about environment and care!I would have given it 5-stars but had to take one off for emphasizing the need for guinea pig companionship with their own kind and then *not* adequately dealing with prevention of the breeding. (The author, a behavioral biologist, believes in the animal's innate right to breed. Unfortunately, there are so many unwanted pets needing homes, it seems irresponsible not to address other possible solutions such as same-sex pairing.)Overall, though, this book ranks as one of the best that I've seen and any guinea pig lucky enough to have an owner that follows the guidelines in this book will be very happy and very spoilt indeed!"
184779,2,Good homeopathic remedy for blocked milk ducts during breastfeeding.,"Very helpful in clearing blocked ducts. Must be steeped in boiling water before applying to breast, which is a little more involved than I would like. Very pleased to have an all natural and organic remedy. Would recommend this product to others."
184801,2,Awesome grater,This has been so handy. Get the sliding attachment and maybe another grater with different hole spacing. Very good quality tool.
184844,2,Great!,The last thermometer we had bought died after being exposed to a little bit of water so I specifically looked for a waterproof one. This one works great and has not died so far after being washed.
184872,2,The running around is in the first scene only. Excellent DVD,"If people are having doubts wether to order this DVD because the critisim that there are 'hundreds of extras flitting about like idiots', then reconsider. This only done in the first scene (outside in the street). I've seen Dario Fo's 'L'Italiani in Algeri' performed in the Amsterdam Music Theatre by the Netherlands Opera, so I knew what to expect: a very entertaining, artistic and beautiful performance. If you prefer (very) oldfashioned stagings of operas where people behave like statues while singing their arias, don't buy this one. If your looking for a very original quality product, get it now. Especially it this price!"
184876,2,"A clear, no-nonsense, practical guide to good money management and investing","I'm sure my grandfather read the original edition of this book, because he gave me the same advice as Benjamin Graham. Most of this seems obvious once you have read it, but in a world that lives off of hype and insanity, any serious investor would benefit greatly from the advice in this book.If you only buy one book on investing, make it this one."
184898,2,This album and all other Nirvana albums are the best!,"If you like Nirvana, you'll love this. This record is only a few songs, but these few songs are a few of Nirvana's many best."
184941,2,Fine Study Aid,"Although I would never depend on one source to pass any certification exam, this text does help you understand many of the topics needed to pass the MOUS Proficient & Expert Level exams. I found the layout of the chapters a bit confusing artistically, but concentrating on the necessary tasks are helpful."
185102,2,Best historical fiction since Shogun,"Since reading Gates of Fire I've been hooked on Pressfield's work, both fiction (Killing Rommel is another favorite) and non-fiction (EVERYONE should read The War of Art!). But not since i read Shogun more than 30 years ago has a book transported me through time and space the way Gates of Fire does. The setting is so real, the characters are so genuine, and the action is so believable that you can almost hear the din of battle and feel the fear and anguish of those on the killing lines of one of the most important battles in the history of the world."
185134,2,Brilliant read,Another fantastic read by the former Archbishop. This is a wonderful reminder about the basis of love and marriage. Will be giving a copy to newly weds. :)
185170,2,Good for Toddlers.,My three year old grandaughter loves Maya and Miguel and their funny antics. She watches them over and over again.
185172,2,Great book,"First, it's not a very long book, but it manages to convey a lot. Easy to read, with no sophistications, it speaks from a down to earth point of view, about less down to earth areas of our existence (such as self knowledge and divinity). I recommend it to anyone who want to explore his own dimensions without risking to get lost."
185206,2,The First Place Everyone Will Turn.,"This is, quite simply, the best single-volume ever produced about products liability. It is comprehensive in three ways: (1) it covers the full spectrum of issues; (2) not only does it cover doctrine in depth, but it also includes helpful discussion of history and theory; and (3) it is elaborately footnoted with citations to cases, law review articles, and other sources. David G. Owen is one of the leading scholars in products liability, and within this highly politicized area, he is a centrist. For all of these reasons, Owen's treatise is destined to become the first place that lawyers, judges, law students, and other scholars will turn for guidance about products liability law."
185207,2,Helped sooth my nerves about being a first-time ESL teacher,"Although there wasn't much directly useful to my situation (Public middle school in Korea. I have classes of nearly 40 students and see each class once per week), the book helped me get an idea of what my role was going to be and what I needed to do in order to prepare. I have even been able to adapt a few of the activity ideas into my monster-sized classes. Personally, I would like to see a longer discussion about having large class sizes, and strategies for dealing with them, but obviously no one can write a book perfectly catered to everyone."
185218,2,Nice and firm spatula,"Had to order these online as I could not find them anywhere. I was looking for a spatula that wasn't ""floppy"" but also not metal and these melamine ones are perfect."
185297,2,Great phone system,"Love this phone set. Incoming sound is great - very crisp, clear and loud. Outgoing sound is great too (I asked people I was talking to). Speakerphone on handset is amazing (I was on the phone for 45 minutes before I told one person we were on speaker the whole time and she couldnt believe it.) Battery life is great - 3 days since my last charge, and battery still shows as full. Used the phone for several hours during that time, too.Phone seemed oddly shaped at first glance. But it feels good in your hand.Features are great too. Some that I find particularly useful: can send phonebook/entries from one phone to another. Alarm feature (great for me, as my alarm doesnt wake me, but the phone always does). Ability to call (intercom) a specific handset from another one.The only cons: keypad does not light up. Single line phone (for anyone that has more than one phone line)."
185358,2,Return Review,This is a bit of a different review. I ordered a collar for my dog but was then given one by a friend and wanted to cancel the order I placed previously. I regret having to cancel the order and it was not the sellers fault at all. I appreciate the quick response to my cancel request. When I need to make other purchases for my dog I will certainly look to them.
185372,2,History making artists,"Before Run-DMC came out in 1983 with its like that and ... MC's Rap was pretty boring. Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five were transformed to Mellie Mel and Company. Run-DMC used scratching, hard driving lyrics, and rock samples that transformed and energized rap. In addition to the previously mentioned songs, King of Rock, My addias, Walk this way, peter piper are all classic tracks that transformed hip-hop and took it to a wider audience."
185388,2,sing a longs,this is a great video. disney should have all their old sing a long videos on dvd. great for the children in this world who can't be troubled with watching all the dialogue and just want to hear the music
185397,2,"Great item, not for Slim...","Great charger, will charge your old PSP 1000 batteries...Unfortunantly, the PSP Slim (PSP 2000-) batteries won't really fit due to a small tab at the bottom of the battery that keeps it in place while in the PSP. Nice to have for the older models, though."
185415,2,riveting read,i am a fan of alternate histories. the hinges on which history revolves can be incredibly fine. conroys' novel is both addictive and very credible. this was one of the toughest books to put down that i have read in several years. his characters (both real and fictional) are very well defined and lifelike. i've just ordered his other book and look forward to reading it.
185559,2,Good Quality parts,I recently bought this part for my 98 Suzuki. parts come with 1 piston seal and 1 piston boot. and a bleed valve cap. installation was easy. Be care full not to damage or stress the seal and the boot.
185598,2,"Outstanding album, simply breathtaking!!!","Martina Mcbride's ""Greatest Hits Album"" is simply awesome!!!All of her hard work payed off and it is displayedin one collection of excellent hits. In addition to hertop number one songs throught out the years, such as Independence Day, Broken Wing,Wild Angels, I love you and Valentine, you can also find four additional tracks, When God Fearin' Women Get The Blues, Where would you be, Concrete Angel, Blessed, which will become top hits in the near future.Great Work Martina!!! Keep entertaining us, all the best to you!!!"
185619,2,"Perfect for the price, if your like me","Lets face it, we dont all have the dollars to throw on just any expensive camcorder...so if you want something affordable, you dont want it to be cheap. In other words, you dont want to sacrafice the price for the quality. This model has done the opposite, and made me happy to spend what little money it cost, and has had terrific results. I dont want to go into the detail like the guy before me did, but I will say that he was right about all that he said. Its really a worthwhile buy, and you cant go wrong with a great company like samsung."
185665,2,Truth about the aftermath of abortion,"This book tells the truth about the effect of abortion on teens, but much is applicable to adults as well. Our society needs to learn that women and girls pay a high price for going against their maternal instinct to nurture their child. The book does not replace post-abortion healing programs, but offers hope of healing and forgiveness from God, who never stops loving any of His children, but is ready to welcome them back into his arms, just like the story of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15:11-32."
185752,2,A complete artist...,"A brilliant selection of the different styles Bruce has embraced during his career. A most under-rated American musician who is happy to do his own thing and continually experiment with different styles.This is my first review on Amazon although I have bought a tonne of stuff. I was absolutely stoked with this purchase hence this report. Bruce (and RCA?) has shied away from ripping us punters off with pre-recorded hits for the 'anthology' version. Most of his 'greatest hits' are previously unreleased versions. Most impressed. Fortunate Son into Comfortably Numb and back into Son...wow. The DVD version of this song from Spain with Roger Waters is fantastic too...Bruce's support musicians deserve equal acclaim. Doug Derryberry, JV Collier et al. are consumate musicians who obviously care less about commercial sales and success than musical abilty and genuine artistic self-expression and enjoyment.Brilliant - can't say much more than that...."
185761,2,Beloved Game,"My 6th grade students love this game. It's amazing how many math facts can be easily taught using this game. My students beg me to continue playing even when BINGO has been called or the bell has rung.Teachers love this game for the variety. Each card has multiple problems, all with the same answer, enabling you to play this throughout the year, focusing on various techniques each time.When I play, I write the problem on the board and work it at the same time the students are working it. I write the answers in a column to keep everyone honest. We usually can do 20-30 problems in 1/2 hour.I'd also highly recommend their Fraction Bingo and Algebra Bingo."
185814,2,Outrageous entertainment!,"The fun continues in season two.This show is a guilty pleasure. This reality television show chronicles the competition dancers at Abby Lee Dance Studion in Pittsburgh along with their stage, uh I mean dance moms. The dancers are genuinely talented, but the behavior of the studio owner/teacher, Abby, and the dance moms is increasingly more outrageous. Their behaivor may be of questionable quality, but is sure is fun to watch!"
185828,2,Nice,Came quickly and seems to be great quality. Couldn't be happier with it. Although I do not have any other products to compare with.
185849,2,Wow!,Needless to say we don't have a problem with mice anymore. These traps caught them all in one day! We tried using live traps and other snap traps with no luck. We finally decided to order these after cleaning up mouse droppings for weeks. Completely satisfied with this product!
185862,2,Wonderful Primer for Starting a Serious Practice,"This book is a wonderful primer for anyone wanting to get started on a meditative practice. I've studied many different forms of meditation over the years, and tried teachers, books, etc... But this book has helped me stick with my practice in a way others haven't. There's no fluff. Every page truly has value.The book is wonderfully practical, and makes it very easy to learn and work the two starter meditations of Buddhism, and to gain value from them. The meditations it teaches are simple yet powerful, and I believe they can improve how people feel about themselves, and operate in the world.I bought this book several years ago, and still turn to it regularly to review the principles and practices it describes. If you're at all interested in practicing meditation, I'd strongly recommend it."
185905,2,My husband loved it.,My husband loved this book and we have purchased it for all our expectant father friends.
185938,2,Great Headphones,"These headphones are especially great for activities that involve a lot of movement. They do not fall out. I use them in the construction field. They block most machinery noise and I am able to enjoy my music. As with most headphones of this type, they eventually will short but these lasted much longer than any other brands that I have used. My first pair lasted over a year and I quickly bought another, actually two pair, to replace them. I recommend them for anyone who has trouble with standard ear buds, which neither will stay in nor block outside noise."
185972,2,Great camera,"Got this camera for a Christmas present for the wife and she loves it. 10mp and all the options you can ask for. Of course it's not as great in low light as a DSLR, but then you're not paying the same price as a DSLR either."
185973,2,Awesome Camera,"This camera takes awesome pictures and adequate videos. Prior to the Canon A640 I had a Kodak that gave me more problems than I care to discuss here. I decided to get this camera because of its compactness and versatility. I've had it for 5 months and have used it quite a bit, including on a 21-day expedition to Aconcagua in South America, and it has worked beautifully. The one problem that I've had with it is sometimes the shutter don't open fully, otherwise it works great and takes awesome pictures."
185982,2,Kosinki's work,"I think Sloan's work is helpful but shouldn't be taken as final word. It's been awhile since I've read it but my impressions were that it was fair. I was disappointed to hear of all the controversy over Kosinki's use of translators. I've read all but his last, ""The hermit of 69th street,"" before I'd heard of Sloan's book. The real question is why did he keep the use of translators a secret? In the end, it's still Kosinki's work and nobody can take that away from him, which is noted in Sloan's book. One other piece of criticism that bothered me was the questioning of fact versus fiction. And so I ask, what difference does it make? His seven novels were released as fiction, that is what a novel is. As far as I'm concerned, Kosinski covered his tracks with the word ""novel."" It sounds like petty jealousy to nitpick over something like that. Kosinski told brilliant stories and ""Being There"" was the most brilliant of ideas."
186088,2,absolutely great,these binoculars enable you to see terrific detail of objects from a distance. the detail of pike's peak from colorado springs is so great through these it's unbelievable for a pair so compact. as another person stated they are too good for say a ball game but superb for long distance like on a 4x4 trail.
186180,2,Track Listing,1. Reflections of an Indian Boy - Overture2. At the Pool3. Maiden's Prayer4. Loma (Or The Tecumseh Theme)5. The Wedding Feast6. Lullaby7. The Big Brave Song8. Squaw's Lament9. Ceremonial War Dance
186206,2,Wonderfully fun for boys,My two boys (ages 6 and 8) and I loved all the Time Warp Trio books. Fun and fantasy with some history lessons thrown in. Lots of laughs.
186228,2,Simple solution to unwanted barking,"I have a 13lb Shih tzu who I take to work with me. He is not a big barker but occassionally will start to bark when I leave him at my desk to make copies etc. I tried this collar on him and he barked twice before deciding it wasnt worth it. I'm so grateful that this product was able to solve my issue easily and painlessly. Recommend for the occasional nuisance barking. I will say it is a little large for his small size, but it does not seem to prevent him from relaxing/laying down, chewing on his bully. :)"
186279,2,One of the most impressive books I have ever read on the subject,"Not a light read by any means, but so very worth it. I can't add much to what the other reviewers have said, but I have read countless books on religion/Biblical interpretation and so forth, and Mr. Kuhn's works are by far the most comprehensive, and most valuable, that I have found so far. I have read Massey, and Harpur as well as others, and there is simply no comparison. Kuhn shines like a beacon in the night. It is sad that this book is not well known, or given the rich recognition that it undoubtedly deserves. It will likely change your life."
186363,2,Great Read!,"I was fascinated to read Gonzales's insights into the nature of humans under mortal stress. The approach is part psychological, part neurophysiological, and part common sense. Reading the prologue alone made me feel that I had been in the presence of heroes.Entertaining, thoughtful, insightful, and instructive."
186382,2,A Must Read,A+! A must read for any pet owner! Gives a good picture of what the animal rights movement is all about!
186464,2,It's a great read,"My husband and both have loved this book. It is a great read, keeps your interest, very difficult to put down. The characters are so real."
186498,2,Slaughter Review,"Exceptionally AWESOME!!!! They are pretty much my favorite band, although I like so many it's hard to guage that!!! SLAUGHTER!!!! SLAUGHTER!!!!SLAUGHTER!!!!!!"
186536,2,Awesomeness in a tiny box!,Fantastic sound out of a compactportable little amp. If you're gigging and usemonitor support this could be you're smallestrig yet! Great sound and tone options.A foot switch option between clean andone distortion choice would be hella-cool!
186564,2,Strange.,This guy can get his voice really high pitch! I like this CD..its nice to open up to different styles of music.
186659,2,"Item is good, but New was more like Used","My complaint is not with the item itself so that's why it got 4 stars. The new item was not new! I saw the bottom of the plastic had a slice. So I opened it fully to check it out. My suspicion was correct, it was used. The measure was scotch taped to the flask. I opened and looked in, there was powder residue, the finish was stained and very slightly pitted so I guess it's been sitting for a little bit. I cleaned it with solvent, it helped but not perfect - at least it's inside. Next time I guess I will take a trip to the store even if it is a little out of the way. At least I know new is new."
186695,2,The Return of the Rockford Four,"Having first heard some of the gems on this CD live, it was a worthwhile wait for the real deal. I bought 2 copies. Superb, exhilerating, funny. I love this band. Name any other rock act that would include a fine DVD bonus that seems a sincere tip-o-the-cap to their loyal following. Checkerboard guitars notwithstanding, this is mature rock by America's finest. GO SEE THEM WHEN THEY HIT YOUR TOWN."
186787,2,REALLY WORKS!!!,"I highly recommend this product for any animal owner... in particular for helping to eliminate any odors for sick or dying pets... the product actually says that it is good for ""eradicating urine and dead bodies"" they are not kidding... nothing worse than cat urine... this product saved my couch and bedroom mattress from a very sick cat. Something everyone should have around their household."
186804,2,Powerful Movie,"This is the type of character-driven movie you can really get lost in!This movie is expertly acted and the partnership of Sean Penn and Timothy Hutton literally define ""chemistry"".The ONLY part of the movie that didn't ring true, for me, was the Russian connection- the gentlemen would go from screaming at Sean Penn, quite convincingly, to talking to Timothy Hutton with a not-so-convincing, barely audible low toned voice.The book had a sequal, and I was hoping the movie would too.The scenes with Tim Hutton and Pat Hing;e as father and son are especially moving.As a matter of fact, this movie is so good, you wish it wouldn't end."
186817,2,What's better than coffee and chocolate?,"Turn your morning or evening coffee into a chocolate treat with this tasty creamer. Rather than paying for those expensive mocha drinks at the coffee shoppe, make your own with this chocolate creamer."
186850,2,great book everybody must read,great book every one must read there is more than enuff evadence to prove this book we must not forget .
186873,2,Want your kids outside? Get one of these.,I cant keep my kid or the neighborhood's off it. Only drawback is the short battery time. 45 mins really goes by fast when your having fun. Starts slowly and breaks well. Easy to plug up for a recharge.
186946,2,Only the Blu-Ray,"I got it thinking there was a DVD, but that is 100% my mistake. Our van doesn't play blu-ray. My kids love the movie & I did even before they were born."
186951,2,A Wonderful Read,"Tess held my attention from the first few pages. I read this quickly as I had to know what was going to happen! It incorporates so many of life's experiences weaving them into a plot that has twist and turns to keep your interest.Thanks, Tess. I shall read more!"
187016,2,"best album ever, still worth your money","This is definately green day's best album. It still posesses more of the raw punk qualities of early green day, but it more organized than slappy. Some of the best songs and lyrics on this CD. It is still worth full price, but you can probably find it cheap."
187087,2,Works great on my camcorder,"received product in timely manner, charged battery and use it approximately four times per week. works great for me. I almost alwsys purchase on-line items through Amazon.com, have never had a problem..."
187166,2,I bought it twice,"This has been my favorite album of the year. Great, natural, country-soul. I originally purchased the album digitally, and I just bought it again from Amazon in order to get the lyrics.Both the music and lyrics are brilliantly crafted."
187176,2,Reliable Product,"Upgraded system ram in my PC some time ago. Forgot to review. Since I am using the computer, we must assume all is well. In my experience, PNY, Crucial, and Kingston are all reliable sources for Ram. Probably chose one over the other for $$ reasons (on sale??). Anyway it is very good ram."
187298,2,Fiskars Quality,"These pruning shears were purchsed for my Mom, who is new to gardening after her recent retirement. Typical Fiskars quality! Very pleased."
187306,2,SUPERB!!!!!,"This was my first Susan Hill book and it made me an instant fan/fanatic. Cannot IMAGINE why it took me so long to discover this magically talented, brilliant author, but now that I have, I'm looking forward to many, many months of enjoyment and enlightenment as I wend my way through her entire body of work. Have now finished the Simon Serrailler series and have to say that this first one still stands out as the best for me. They were ALL, each and every one, truly exceptional, but ""Haunts"" was a treasure."
187344,2,Lit is the best,"I'll admit it, I hate pop and why does everyone say it is pop music. With all the backup riffs in ""My Own Worst Enemy,"" it sounds more like a rock group. Pop or not, this group is the best. Buy the cd, you would probably say it was worth it."
187359,2,"Thanks, silverchair","I remember being a senior is high school when this CD came out (1999) and it was the first CD i ever bought the day it came out. The power behind the song ""Anthem for the Year 2000"" was such a powerful message of hope to me I just had to have this CD so i could listen to that over and over. That song alone helped me make it through high school, and still gives me the strength to keep going even today in 2005"
187377,2,Works great,"Had a hard time getting my cat to take it. I had to take a spoonful of wet food,and hid it inside. I would definitely recommend NOT crushing the pill. It got rid of the worms within one day."
187397,2,you can't go back for love,"Love is good,but business is better,you can't go back for love.People move on and change"
187429,2,Awesome!,This product came just as it should. Brand new and still wrapped. Great Seller will use again.
187747,2,Great Hatchet,"Buy it. It's the best hatchet I've owned. Sharp as a razor and light as a feather. Strong, durable."
187895,2,Nice Sounding Budget Speaker System For Non Critical Listening.,"Well I have listened to these speakers at length.They are good for gaming and non critical listening.The sound is warm and full.Hey At this price point you cant expect high end sound!! That will cost you thousands of dollars.The subwoofer emits an annoying buzz on some classical music and some acoustical music.I would suggest you listen to these speakers before purchasing.As a bonus you get precut speaker cables and a subwoofer cable+ Free Shipping!,which was the deal breaker for me.I am buying another as a gift.Again Dont Expect Too much And You Wont Be Disapointed!Thank You from Stewart L 02/09/07"
187912,2,Kicks your ass.,"This is a great exercise video if you've hit a fitness plateau. The music is pretty eighties funky and the moves are a little difficult, but it gets your heart rate WAY up there and really is quite energizing. Just when you think you're going to die, she stops and you actually feel really good."
187954,2,Delightful,"With the current flood of Chick Lit books filling the bookstores today, THE BOTOX DIARIES has found a way of riding in on the wave and yet setting itself apart from the pack. Instead of dealing with the sometimes clich? obstacles of being a 20-something woman living in the city, searching for love and a career, we have two 40-something women searching for meaning in their lives while battling the issue of age. What THE BOTOX DIARIES shows is that even as women age, their problems of how to handle love, life, relationships and careers remains constant. These women are the SUV-driving, blond-bobbed, wrinkle-free Manhattan women who most females tend to hate. However, Janice Kaplan and Lynn Schnurnberger have created very likable and very real characters, and readers will actually find themselves sympathizing with the life struggles of these women."
188019,2,Very good phone,If you don't care about design and lack of rings choices this is an excellent product for you.
188062,2,Perfect slide,"These slide great on the gym floor, my only issue is that contrary to other reviews I think they are kind of big around my knee and I constantly am re-adjusting in between plays. But I can slide like 5 feet which is really great for the rec league I play in. At first they are pretty stiff too, its almost hard to bend your knee, but after one or two uses they break in pretty well. Also love that they are pink :)"
188068,2,Another Childhood Favorite!!!,"It was Child's Play 2 that started my love for horror movies. It was on tv when I was about 6 years old, and I loved it! I still love it. It's been two years since Andy Barclay has been rid of Chucky, but the greedy people at Play Pals Toy Company resurrects the original Chucky doll, and brings Chucky back to life. Andy has been placed in the foster care of Phil and Joanne Simpson because his mom has gone crazy. Chucky finds Andy and the nightmare begins again. Andy made friends with the teenage girl that the Simpsons are also looking after. Her name is Kyle, and she is HOT! Soon, Kyle believes Andy about Chucky and she tries to help him. They eventually have an ulimate showdown at the Play Pals Toy Company. If you love horror and Chucky, you'll love CHILD'S PLAY 2!!!"
188260,2,WOW,"I love it when I discover new books and authors. And I loved this book, very entertaning. Look forward to reading the 2nd sign of the Zodiac."
188326,2,Handy and powerful,"This is a handy (little, but powerful) chainsaw. Don't laugh, it's true.Great for carrying into the woods to make a quick job of small trees, cutting firewood, etc. Nice to not have to mess with gas, etc. You do have to add oil for the chain, but otherwise this is a snap to use!"
188450,2,This Is A Great Book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,This is a book about a girl named Molly. All of the teachers and some of the kids are mean to her. I cannot tell you more. Because it will be a great suprise. I hope you enjoy the book! It is one of my favorite books.
188482,2,Love it!,"This is my first sewing machine as I am new to it (well besides a home ec class in 6th grade), and I have to say it's a cinch to use and seems like it'll be able to do everything I want for clothing and beyond! Hope it lasts though, but I still consider it a steal for all that it provides (many different accessories included)."
188488,2,Great for a beginner,I needed a sewing machine mostly for hemming and repairs. I've never sewn before so I needed something that is easy to use. I'm very pleased with this machine so far. The manual is pretty good but it could use some clarification for the novice users. Setting it up to sew is very easy. I'm sure I will get a lot of use from this machine.
188572,2,A serious and original book!,"Ruse's book is an exciting journey along the interface between science and religion. Although one might say that it's title should be ""How can a darwinian be a christian?"", the book does deal very seriously with the relationship between science and religion, and does thet in an original way. As a student of both philosophy of religion and life sciences I found that Ruse presents both sides' arguments very clearly and without distorting them at all (which isn't usualy easy to do). And as for the question of taking the biblical story literaly (which a few of the reviewers here thought as a must and as a destruction of Ruse's ideas) , it was the great jewish philosopher Meimonides who said that it (the story told in Genesis I 1-11) is only a story which should be interpreted according to science."
188618,2,"Very, very good","Like Ivory Soap, 99.999% of the time an artist produces an album that rehashes their previous work and that of their colleagues. In otherwords, it's the same *stuff* different day. Not Liquid Swords. Perhaps the best rap album of the decade, this album hits hard and its quality is consistent throughout.My advice: If you enjoy ""real"" rap...BUY this album."
188658,2,Great price fast shipping!,"I must say I'm very pleased with this purchase. It was much much cheaper than the dealership wanted to replace my headlight assembly. It came very quickly, was well packaged and exactly as described. The bonus was, it came with a bulb already in the assembly."
188707,2,Have another shroom Mickey!,"Well, you either love or hate this movie and I didnt much care for it much either the first time I caught it. But, about 20 viewings later I'd have to say I'm sort of hooked. Some people just dont get it, and that's understandable. The comedy is way over the top. Just hilarious. Both Woody and Tommy Lee Jones said this was their favorite film and I'm not gonna argue with that. Probably the most brilliant and creative movie of all time, and that's a bold statement but this wild masterpiece backs it up. And maybe the intent was not to glorify violence, but to shock the collective viewer both internal and external to the film to a higher state of consciousness? Who knows, and who cares. This is a landmark film and deserves more attention and respect than it got. 5 Rattlers."
188734,2,Best incontinence product for men and women,"I have used this style of pad for both my mother and father for over 10 years. They fit up snugly, almost like mens supporter and are much cooler in hot weather as they don't have paper and plastic on the sides. The waist band is very stretchy. My dad weighed about 250 and my mom only weighs 120 and they fit both of them. Sometimes when we are out for a long day I use one of these close to the body and then a second underwear style pad over. When I go to change them I can remove the inside one without taking all of their clothes off in the bathroom. My dad couldn't use the kinds with buttons as his fingers were to big. Mom can't because she is legally blind and can't also can't figure them out. These just easily slip on. If you are still active this is the best product!"
188760,2,steel and banjo,"if you like steel,banjo and tempo this is a cd for you... great songs. that steel guy(burke carroll) can really play.. and the song milk and honey is maybe the most beautiful song i have ever heard...luthers vocals could be better but never mind..excellent album..i can recommend their other album ""rebuild the wall""."
188770,2,EXTRAORDINARY,"This is my favorite of the Hannibal series.It has the same thrills, chills and surprisesas its predecessors, but in this movie themusic and scenery were fantastic. It wastruly a gourmet's delight. :-)Rating: 10/10 5/5Bill SchaeferBerwyn, PAEphraim@chesco.com"
188802,2,Fast shipping and my worms are LOVING IT!!!,I like absolutely everything about this worm factory! There's absolutely nothing i dislike about the product. My worms are very active in there and loving it! They are eating all the pulp from my morning and night time pulp from vegetable juice that I make + banana peels and all kinds of organic matter. I highly recommend this product to anyone that has no idea on how to raise worms and collect worm castings. If you are new i would suggest you just get this instead of going through the trouble of making one yourself and then struggling with trial and error.
188827,2,Outstanding legal mystery with compelling narrator,"I whuffled this up in two or three reading jags. You get all the right elements: a good whodunit, a conflicted narrator (in a believable if wooze-making downward alcoholic spiral), excellent pacing, good minor characters, and a consistent, clear voice that pulls you through to the end.I am very, very picky about this genre--I almost never read it--and only did so because it's a local author. I am on Amazon to buy the next book in his series. I only hope that the story is just as good without agonized, tippling Ted Stevens at its core."
188925,2,Great follow up,"I was lucky enough to get my hands on this one 6 weeks before it came out so I have already played it to death. My first feeling was that it didn't compare to ""The big come up"" but after many more listenings I now feel it is as good with just as much soul as the first. These guys are doing what no other bands are right now, going back to the basics and playing with incredible amounts of soul and feeling. The highlights in my opinion are ""Set you Free"" "" Midnight"" and ""I cry alone"" although I think the entire album is good. I was also lucky enough meet them at the Metro in Chicago and they are the most down to earth nicest guys you'll ever meet."
188933,2,One ingredient in my bird's diet,"I like to custom blend my parrot food so I buy several different types of seeds/pellets/dried fruits and nuts. This Harvest Feast makes up an important part of my mix and the package was received quickly, at a good price, and was shipped for free. Good deal."
188974,2,finally available -- from time-life,"Just heard this: TIME-LIFE says they'll ship ""The Man From U.N.C.L.E.: The Complete Collection"" on 2007-11-27! All 4 seasons, 41 DVDs, with a ""Uncle"" theme attache case. Their price $249.95. How much will it be on Amazon?"
189099,2,Very good,"This book is worth the purchase and will not disappoint the reader. If you're a fan of The Walking Dead series, you need to have this book."
189157,2,awesome as usual !!!,I fell in love with this band on vacation in houston a few years back- now I'm hooked on the TEXAS RED DIRT sound- only I have to listen on line to get it here in Oregon! Every album The Randy Rogers Band puts out is great-They are my ring tones even-Cant wait for this wknd as they are playing here in Oregon!!!
189178,2,Sony subwoofer,It works very well and is reasonably priced. I am not real picky though. I like how it automatically goes into standby mode to save energy.
189183,2,A great motion sensitive light.,I really like the Heath Zenith SL-4305. It was very easy to install and program. It looks almost identical to my old light and does not scream out taht it's a motion detecting light.It's nice to be able to pull up at night into my carport and have the light come on automatically.I am very satisfied with the purchase.
189185,2,Really nice for not so much,"I bought this and set it up to what I saw on the instructions, and it didn't work. It was cool looking, but not functional. Then I remembered reading a review that gave some more detailed instructions, so I came back. Moved the magnet as close as I could get it without touching and vola!! Works like a charm and well worth the money."
189258,2,Awesome!,"I love this show; it is hilarious! Put the kids to bed before you watch it, a lot of f-bombs dropped."
189362,2,jazz piano,I had a very good surprise with Niels Lan Doky's jazz performance. Highly recommended Trio Montmatre !
189447,2,Pretty Good Book,"This book was good it WAS INTERESTING AND KEPT MY ATTENTION. Some of the book was just a little to ""fake"" or tv like but other than that it was good a very fast read and will hold your interest."
189477,2,Great Book!,"This book is very witty, humorous, and straight to the point! However, I think the best thing about it is that it is a very accurate reflection of reality. In each chapter they address a ""type"" of guy and address the shortcomings of dating such a person. I gave it four stars not because the book itself had any issues but because if you buy the kindle version, you can't use the workbook section unless you print it out ahead of time, which just seems like kind of a hassle."
189583,2,Finally - All in One! Great Toy!,"We really like the multi-subject format, as my son was asking for multiple Turbo Twists (Spelling, Math, Fact Blaster), and that wasn't going to happen. It holds his attention, and in fact, the adults pick it up and play with it as well. Very happy with this product - glad Santa brought it! They just need to come out with a carrying case of some sort, so we stop misplacing the cartridges!"
189586,2,Exactly what I ordered,Buttons that I ordered were exactly what I was looking for and they arrived fast! Perfect experience. The colors were a match from the color pictured on Amazon also. That's hard to find. Thank you
189613,2,"A must have DVD, but where is the entire season??","As one of many huge fans of this show (why did they take this show off the air!??!!) I was thrilled to find the first season on DVD. The skits are great and the uncensored scenes are funny and interesting. The big flaw? The entire first season is not on the DVD!! Why not?? So many great skits and comments are left off this DVD. Hopefully, the makers of the DVD won't make the same mistake with season 2 when it finally comes out."
189623,2,Just a Memory,The best way to relive all the fun you had watching this wonderful show. Memories of the perfect group. Makes you laugh and cry.
189753,2,Poison Ivy / Poison Ivy 2 - Lily / Poison Ivy - The New Seduction,DVD was jaw dropping.DVD arrived in a very timely fashion.DVD arrived in excellent condition.
189795,2,What an amazing ladder!,I spent a week trying to figure out how I would paint our living room which has 24'high ceilings. Decided to give this ladder a try. Was probably one of the best purchases I have ever made.First of all this thing is rock solid. I used it almost fully extended as an extension ladder and felt very safe. The only negative I can think of is that it is fairly heavy. However that is expected for such a sturdy ladder.I highly recommend this ladder for almost anyone. However it might be a little heavy for smaller or elderly people.
189836,2,"Handy for skis, bikes, etc.","Got this as a ski lock, but it will serve as a nice, easy to carry bike lock too. Great price!"
189857,2,"Thank you, reviewers...","I punched in five stars because the reviews of this book are hilarious and I want to thank you all - and I do mean ""you-all."" I am about to read this book and I can hardly wait to see if I love it or hate it! I loved the review that said, simply ""This too shall pass."" On the other hand, I can see that it really moved many women, and I look forward to the experience, whatever it will be. When I am finished with this extraordinarily controversial book, I will write a full review."
189915,2,Safe and durable,"I bought a pair of these several years ago and wear them often (winter lasts about 8 months in Northern MN). They really grip snow and ice and I feel extremely secure when I am wearing them. The tips aren't metal so they don't mar indoor floors. One of the pair finally partially wore out so I bought a new pair, but I'm still wearing the old pair. Since they are extra large, they fit over my clunky winter boots perfectly."
189939,2,Healing Oil,"Awesome product for healing. After years of regularly scheduled dermatologist treatments and religious use of commercial sunblock, pre-cancerous areas of my husband's face never healed. After a year and a half of using Neem oil and only minimal, all-natural sunblock, his face is almost completely healed and the dermatologist only wants to see him once a year instead of every 3 months! Our grandson's naturopath recently recommended it for eczema as well. GREAT product. We're on our second quart!"
189982,2,One of the best books ever written!!,This book has the perfect plot and fun for every student who wants to learn Spanish. This will make your class sit on edge of their chair because it's that good.
190011,2,Addictive,I always kind of made funny of Buffy and her loyal fans just to find myself now hopelessly addicted to this show. I'm borrowing all the seasons from a friend who has them and she can't get them to me fast enough. The worst part is I know how it all ends and it makes me immensely sad. Why can't it just go on forever and also I haven't watched Angel completely yet but from what I've seen it doesn't seem as fun as Buffy was.
190036,2,well Done,A fantastic adventure that follows the story well. The casting is fantastic.This show helps me get over my longing forDeadwood.
190038,2,I knew I would love it!,Game of Thrones is AMAZING!! I read the book and I have to say that this is done excellently! Fantastic acting! Great characters! Over all nicely done! LOVE IT and CANNOT WAIT FOR SEASON 2!
190048,2,Game of Thrones---season 1,"It was a Christmas gift, but started watching it and so far it is great. It was highly recommended to me. I'm sure I will enjoy all of it as well."
190065,2,Great choice for big brother or sister,"I chose this for my grandson partly because it looked like the child on the cover was a boy, but it can be interpreted as a girl as well. The pictures and text were very good -- simple, not too wordy, and showed what it's like to have a baby in the house. I was very happy with his desire to have it read to him often and felt it helped a lot."
190082,2,This Is The Best Thomas Release In 2004!,"All aboard for all new adventures with Thomas, the blue engine that has big adventures on Sodor. Featuring Six episodes from Season 8.Too Hot For ThomasEmily's AdventureYou Can Do It TobyEdward The GreatJames Goes Too FarPercy And The Magic CarpetSounds like I won't like it. I'LL LOVE IT! The stories sound good and they have the only episodes I have not seen yet this year. 5/5."
190108,2,"""Waiting in Vain"", a soul-touching journey","Colin Channer's ""Waiting in Vain"" is one of the best books I have read in a while. Fire and Sylvia are real people. Mr. Channer created these characters but I see myself and my friends in them. I have never been to Jamaica or experienced their language physically, but Mr. Channer took me there mentally and emotionally. I would recommend this book to everyone. It takes you on a wonderful journey to your past. Past life, past loves, past pain and leads you to a present love that is worth it all."
190121,2,A wonderful book,"I read this book in late 2002 when people were always asking me why I hunted and why I liked it so much. It was very helpful to hear someone else put into words what I felt but couldn't articulate.This book clearly spells out the dangerous agenda of animal rights groups, how they exist merely to perpetuate themselves and how little they actually do for wildlife conservation. He does this without personal attacks or bias, but with statistical facts, and personal examples. This book is very well-written despite what some people have posted hear.There is also a spiritual side to the book that honors animals and nature like I've never heared from an anti-hunter. This author truly lives in nature and loves nature, like all hunters do."
190130,2,just as good as all the others,the only diference beetween blank wheels and the others is the pro models have the skaters name on it. so dont go bying 40 dollar whells cause they have cores or watever blank wheels are just the same and just as good
190135,2,Great Vocalist,"I think that this is a great album, she makes a true turn around with the diversity on this LP. She gives us more than just hits, she gives us the meat of what she can really do. I believe she is very underrated, her voice is unlike any other out here right now. She definitely can give Beyonce a run for her money with her vocals, and she definitely puts Ashanti in the dog house. I think that she just needs a better marketing team on her side, she definitely has a fan base, but you are not told when her albums are being released.The best songs in my opinion are:HypnoticHe Makes Me Say (reminds you of old school jams)Classic Love Song (reminds you of A.Keys You Don't Know My Name)Phone SexSlowlyAnother Relationship ( Classic Syleena cut)Leave Me AloneOnly A WomanI think she doesn't get her props the way she should. But she can give most of these young chicks a run for their money..The best from Syleena yet!!!"
190239,2,Good death metal,"Regardless of who's in it, this is still a great Morbid Angel release. The music here is well-played. The drums are the most fluid of any MA album for years. The new vocalist mananges well with the inhumanly spewed growls. Trey's solos here are so cleanly are so cleanly done. The riffs are great also. This is death metal thrill from start to finish. Listen and enjoy the ride."
190325,2,exceeded all expectations,"I decided to try these because of the amazingly inexpensive price and the good reviews. Never the less, I feared it would ruin my printer, as it was not approved Brother cartridge, or at best, give messy or poor results. I'm delighted to be wrong. Quality, ease of use, everything exceeded all expectations. I'll never waste money on name brands ink again.NB I've not yet tried it on photo paper."
190340,2,Inspired Words?,"This book is simply a refutation of the bible as literal fact, and divine inspiration. Mr. Mckinsey, in this work, finds little need to make complex theological arguments, he instead simply uses the bible itself to expose its own falibility. Throughout 25 brief, yet powerful chapters Mckinsey shows us why the ""bible is simply the the flawed writings of some very fallible men"". Proving in the end that simple logic is the best defense against the raving, illogical arguments so common to the fundamentalist mind. This book is for anyone who wants to examine the bible in a fair and logic way, one no focused on the literary value of the book, but on the destructive nature of its message. Mormonism and Islam are also discussed along with the seemingly countless versions of the old and new testaments. As Mckinsey states, see why in the end, ""the bible is its own worst enemy""."
190344,2,delightful,"My daughter introduced me to this series, I was initially sceptical but went on to enjoy this throughly. What was most striking was the unusual story line, which was as funny as it was comical. The two lead characters were very well matched and both gave a delightful performance, the supporting cast did not dissappoint. The important life lesson here being -""what a tangle web we weave when first we choose to deceive""- this was very aptly depicted in Lie to me. To untangle the web of lies required humility and in this case a healthy dose of love and affection. It helped that in the course of the pretence and lies, cupid's arrow had made its mark on the two and this made for a very entertaining series. If you love Korean dramas, this is one for the keeper shelf."
190346,2,One of his best,"This is a wonderful album - if you get beyond the first song! The first song is slow and maudlin, but then comes the upbeat Canziones and it's all uphill from there. Particularly enjoyed ""Mondo"", simply beautiful."
190354,2,EC 301 Intermediate Micro,"Easy to read, at least more so than accounting. If you can afford it, buy it."
190470,2,Christmas With Conniff,"Our Christmas seasons growing up just would not have been the same without this timeless holiday music. The renditions are stirring and evocative of a world gone by. It does not surprise me that young people are again feeling the tug of the well-produced music. The ""kitchy"" feel even makes it more attractive in this world of sampled everything. Unless I miss my guess, it'll brighten your holidays as it has done for decades for so many of us."
190480,2,a timeless story,I've read this story every year since the 1980's. Just a tradition I have. My other book was worn-out so I sent for this one. It is is good shape.
190482,2,NICE TOOLS,"So I hate to review a product before I've used it, but we haven't gone camping yet....so I opened the box and much to my surprise they were pretty good looking quality. I was expecting a super cheapo product for the price so I gave them 5 stars for being nice... Once we use them if I have anything to add, I will update this review."
190483,2,The single best book on Word for Windows--period!,"As a professional software support technician specializing in Microsoft Office products, I've found Woody Leonhard's HACKER'S GUIDE TO WORD FOR WINDOWS (2nd Ed.) to be the single best book on Microsoft Word--period. While on the surface it is a guide to the WordBasic language, what it really is, is a look inside Microsoft Word, letting you see the nuts and bolts, the cogs and wheels--and the not-so-occasional glitch. My personal copy, sitting beside my pc as I type, is very battered and dog-eared, testimony to the hard use it has received over the past year. I can recommend it without reservation to anyone using Word, writing WordBasic macros, or just plain interested in what makes a word-processing program tick"
190494,2,La Crosse WS-3610u-ch,"I have been pleased with the weather station.The station is easy to set upI do wish the directions gave more explanation on the setups for the stormwarning, weather tendency, pressure settings and etc.Amateur like myself need more definitions in order to set the station up in my particular part of the country"
190526,2,Nice product,It looks very good and arrived very fast. Nice product and the color brings life to my work desk. I recommend this color if you are l
190554,2,Smoke Detector purchased at Amazon.com,"I purchased this smoke & fire alarm for my kitchen. I hope it works if it is ever needed.Kidde i9040 Fire Sentry Compact Smoke and Fire Alarm, Ionization Sensor, Battery-Operated"
190599,2,Satisfied customer,"The Schwinn 230 Recumbent bike has been an excellent purchase. It is a solid, easy to use and realitively inexpensive excercise bike that my wife and I use regularly. Set up of the bike was not bad, but I did have a problem connecting the electrical wires. As a result, I did not have any power to the console. My call to support was handled pleasantly, and with their help I was able to get the connection working. I haven't had a problem since."
190672,2,Best DVD I Have Bought,"I am not kidding when I say that. I am a big fan of Steve Maxwell and have been following his training philosophies for a long time. This dvd is perfect for anyone that wants to learn mobility drills, it is not a defined or set workout however. It is 3 dvds worth of some of the best mobility exercises I have used. After watching all of the dvd's I created a program based on my own needs that I follow on non-workout days and when ever I need a little rehab,(I have had 2 knee surgerys and low back issues). Not only does he show you tons of great exercises but the detail for each is very thorough as well"
190675,2,Enjoyable lightweight comedy,"A forgotten TV Movie with an excellent cast, strong script and solid, if unexciting direction. Gene Wilder and Bob Newhart are two businessmen who continue to meet up in secret after their weekly poker game ends. Not a lot really happens and there is nothing earth-shattering, but it does a very nice job of examining marriage, love and life just before middleage. Written by James L. Brooks I am suprised no one in Hollywood has thought to create a remake. A great value at the price and if you have broadband internet access it can also be viewed for free from..."
190692,2,Only one complaint ...,"The show was great. My one complaint w/ it was that the first episode was the only one that was based on any of the Rizzoli & Isles novels (and loosely at that). Otherwise, if you forget what you know of Ms. Gerritsen's works (have all of them, can't WAIT for ""The Silent Girl"" this summer) it was a great series. Looking forward to season 2."
190693,2,great series,"if u like drama,mystery,and comedy than u will like these women and this series. it has a good story line and mysteries"
190710,2,Yule Be Wiggling Clear Past the Christmas Season,"We got my 20 month old son this DVD a few weeks before Christmas and let him have it so he could enjoy it for a while. Well it is well past Christmas and he is still enchanted by the singing, dancing and wiggling. We love the fact that they are not afraid to sing Christian songs in today's world. The constant action and quick moves into following segments keep his attention and keep him dancing. It's great exercise and entertainment for him and we, as parents, can tolerate this program a lot better than some other children's shows (large purple dinosaur, which I will not mention)."
190728,2,The Reference,"This book is the most extensive collection of facts, I have ever seen. I have used this book in my years of enginering school, and it has everything from material descriptions, to ""find your own"" drag-coefficient calculations. Simply the best."
190729,2,Amazing,"These books were amazing! It's as if the author almost convinces you that you were there. I'm a little picky when it comes to books, but I can definately tell you that this is one that I feel in love with. There were nights when I'd stay up until 4 in the morning reading-- and that's as a teenager in high school! I completely recommend everyone to read this, for it's hard to find books that are written better."
190773,2,Nice product,"After reading the reviews on this product I wasn't sure if I should buy this, but I did anyhow. My husband put it together without any problems. We bought because we are not buying a changing table this cart can hold all his diapering needs and etc."
190831,2,HOORAY FOR THE CHRISTMAS CORGI!,"Tasha Tudor's gentle illustrations breathe new life and fresh fun into this delightful, timeless rhymed classic. The children, adults and the pets alike participate in the joy of Christmas; the corgi the children dance with is especially delightful. The little corgi has an almost knowing expression in her eyes; she appears to be caught up into the wonder of the holiday season.This timeless classic will be read with delight time and again. The holiday spirit is something to be shared year-round, and this delightful presentation of the classic will certainly be welcomed."
190936,2,A great book for those suffering.,This is a great book for anyone suffering grief for the loss of a loved one or suffering great pain. I have shared this book with many friends and they all agree. I highly suggest this book. It will lift you up.
191017,2,One of the BEST HOSRE movies ever made!,I'm one of those people who watch every horse movie that comes along!And I have probly seen them all!Hidalgo is for HORSELOVERS! And for people who does not understand the strength and determination a horse carrys. After watching this movie it makes you think about all the little trail rides you have been on and let me tell you it is nothing compared to what Hidalgo and Frank went through!This is a must see movie for all!
191035,2,Fighting,"I really wasn't to disappointed. My expectations were low.. But I was wrong! Sweet fight scenes, and good story. I was really impressed with the PQ on this one. The audio quality wasn't amazing, but far from bad. Highly recommend wthis to anyone who has a BD player."
191091,2,had to even rebuy it,This was one of the first books I bought for our 1 year old and he loooooved it. Unfortunatly so did our cats and they distroyed it so I had to rebuy it and it is soooo worth it. Great value and our son still loves it. These books are great learning material and fun and also easy to handle (and durable if you dont have my crazy cats).Can only recommend it!
191098,2,No Other Surreal Life will ever come close to this one,"This was BY FAR the best Surreal Life, and no other Surreal Life season will come close to surpassing this one. Janice Dickenson's antics were unreal, and Omerosa's attitude just adding some flavor to it all. They had star power presence with Jose Canseco, and who could resist Mr. Balki Bartokomous himself, Bronson Pinchot?Absolutely terrific season, and I've never seen another season even come close to the entertainment value of this season. The Season with Hammer and Emmanuel Lewis wasn't bad, but this Season 5 season was the best."
191148,2,Tal..Talk...talki...talking Heads,Talking heads are great. This is a good 2 cd set of talking heads.How can you go wrong
191155,2,Paul sounds pretty good,"The DVD is good, but I only want to see and hear the Beatles stuff. The rest is filler."
191198,2,Getting on Track,"The book provides a well thought out methodology as to how todetermine personal philosophy, strengths and desires and marry these with career planning."
191199,2,LOVE THIS SHOW,It is just fantastic music - well performed and moving. If you've ever done a musical audition you know that the audition song is truely inspired
191408,2,awesome,This is a great movie. It arrived in excellent condition. My son just loves this movie. It is a great movie for the whole family.
191416,2,Same Great Movie--Even Better in 3D!,"Got this as a gift for my nephew, but ended up loving it myself when we watched it over Christmas together. There are some publications that claim children under 3 years old either:a) shouldn't watch 3D Blu-ray movies because it's not good for themb) may not have the depth perception/binocular vision to really appreciation the 3DThe first one doesn't really concern me, because I don't think those concerns have been substantiated, and (for what it's worth) my 2 year old nephew really seemed to think that the 3D was cool--don't know if it was that he actually thought that the movie was cool, or he just enjoyed wearing the 3D glasses :)As for the adults, we all really enjoyed the crystal clear clarity of the movie and the additional depth added by the 3D effects. This movie is wonderful for all ages, and a must-see every year around Christmas."
191432,2,mary mary see how your garden grows,"you have to love geraldine page and ruth gordon,two of the most underrated stars.it's great to see them both .a great piece of story telling and again in the vein of whatever happened to baby jane.just imagine bette davis doing this.awesome.a great film and wonderful castbuy it now,you wont be disappointed"
191465,2,For fans of Leverage,"It's a fun little movie. Fans of Leverage will like it, it's very similar in style. The 'beats' or timing, the quirky yet totally capable characters, and even the music are very Leverage-esq or I should say Leverage is very Foolproof-esq as the movie came out first. In fact I even hunted about on IMDB to see if it was the same writer or director and was surprised when it wasn't. All in all it's a good pizza night flick for those who like caper films or those jonesing for the second half of the Leverage season (Why TNT?! Why must you torture us?!?!)"
191482,2,Worth reading,"The introductory section is a little advanced for someone who does not possess a strong knowledge of Frence history. However, it is the best account of Napoleon's public life that I have read."
191487,2,Date movie,"The movie is sweet and means well. The characters are cute and lovely. But like any date movie, its mostly predictble, actors need some acting lessons. However, you can't help but to wish the main characters to get together and live happily ever after.Not an oscar material, but a romantic warm heart material."
191530,2,Great for a litte pain relief,I have tried the spray & the roll-on of Bio-Freeze and the gel seems to work the quickest and the best. My chiropractor handed me a few packs one day when I had a major adjustment and I couldn't believe how fast I felt the relief in my joints. I now carry a few in my first aid kit when I go kayaking or fishing in case it becomes a long day of too much fun.
191545,2,Read if you have a high needs baby,"I did not read this book till after my high needs baby had grown up, but I sure wish I had read it sooner.You can't prevent a high needs baby, but you sure can work with him to make his and your life easier...all you need is this book :)I only gave 4 stars cause most of this info is already in the Sears AP book."
191556,2,Basic Knowledge that you need to know.,"This book is very well written and covers a lot of ground in Locksmithing. It has lots of reference charts and is just full of great information. I wish that it had a little more detail in some of the areas, but then it would have to be a huge book.I think that it is a must for the beginner, but it leaves you wanting more. I'm afraid that ""More"" will have to come with experience. I recommend it highly. Buying it on Amazon.com is the best way to go."
191559,2,Best premier season ever!,This was by far the best season of the five year run of the show. So much suspense and drama you couldn't wait for the next weeks episode. Top notch cast with great acting. A must watch.
191582,2,Ann Coulter tells it like it is,"This book is guaranteed to get praises from conservatives and scathing criticism from liberals, but in all probability, Ann wouldn't have it any other way. Someone has to be brave enough to step out there and represent conservative views in a world inundated by liberal ideology, and she's definitely doing her part to lead the charge."
191662,2,"Prank Wars, Africa, and Talking Refigerators","""Lost and Found"" if full of fun episodes that all ages will enjoy. In ""Odyssey Sings,"" the gang has a chance to show their singing talents on TV. Tamika is nervous; sure this is her chance for fame. Bart is trying to be really good or really bad, so as to be certain he just gets on TV. Harlow Doyle... never mind. Let's just explain it in four words. ""The Death of Tragedy."" In the ""Business of Busyness,"" Eugene and the Washingtons are too busy. Way too busy. And things get crazy and humorous. ""Champ of the Camp"" is a story about Connie (aka- The Avenger) at summer camp. The prank war begins once again, but how far will Connie go? And who is Goggles? But ""Prisoners of Fear"" was the grand finale. Eugene and his wife Katrina embark on a trip to Africa. But a journal, a curse, and an ""angry river"" make things more difficult and heart-pumping than the couple expected."
191731,2,This has always been my favorite Jim Chappell CD,"I have all of Jim Chappell's CDs and they're all wonderful--but this has always been my favorite. You literally feel your body relaxing and sinking deeper into the chair when you start to play it. And it's really cool how, after a particularly productive day at work, listening to ""A Job Well Done"" makes you feel even prouder about what you did :-)."
191742,2,Assembly,We just began to put my fan up this weekend. It is still not up. Whoever wrote the directions did not do a good job. They did not describe all the parts and at times it was like they skipped what you were supposed to do.The fan itself looks nice. Hopefully we will have it up soon.Amazon delivered it quickly.
191769,2,WAYANS Bros.,I started watching this show back in 99' and use to record the episodes until the tape I had broke. Now that Season 1 has arrived on DVD I'm the happiest mofo alive. All the episodes are great. As the show progressed the episodes got funnier so I can't wait until Season 2.
191786,2,VICTORINOX SWISS ARMY,"I am working in the middle east I needed a light weight simple watch. This watch fits the bill and keeps time perfectly. I like the simple layout of the face, its not too ""busy"" with extra dials, just the time and date. Its simple and rugged, perfect for my use. The only draw back is that I wanted the dials to glow brighter and for longer time. Since they dont use tridium paint anymore the glow fades pretty fast. But, for me that is not a critical problem.I have the black face verson with the silver tone numbers, and crome highlighted bezzel ring, it has the leather accented fabric watch band. I like the way it feels, and looks.I would recommend the watch to those who are looking for a nice looking work watch. Just note the dial loses its glow pretty fast."
191821,2,This is the real deal...,"Born in Arizona I grew up eating ""real"" Mexican food which I sorely missed when I moved to a nearby western state. One day I found this small inexpensive cookbook in a local bookstore. I bought it. I've never been disappointed with the purchase. You will find real southwestern-style Mexican home cooking. Not your fancy ""gourmet"" recipes found in pricey wannabe Mexican cookbooks but the real deal.The recipes are tasty, use normal pantry ingredients. Purchase this cookbook for some fine Mexican home cooking!"
191871,2,There is none other,"The question of ""who's best?"" is a subjective one. My opinion after listening to all of the New Flamenco (New Age) guitarists is: They are all great and have their own distinctive styles, but Govi is king."
191894,2,"Stereotipical King, yet still creepy","'Secret Window' definitely had me on the edge of my seat for most of the movie. It is filled with suspense and crazy plot turns. However, I found it to be rather cliche, in the sense that it was a total stereotype of a Steven King novel, even though that is what it was based upon. Or maybe not a stereotipical King plot, but almost a cliche 'scarey movie' line, where it's just an easy escape to have the main character be, well, crazy.Despite these vices, 'Secret Window' was still a rather good thriller, and I would recommend it, most definitely. Johnny Depp shines, as usual, and I've never seen him in such a creepy role.Overall: four stars!"
191994,2,good introductory ethics book...,"Need this book for ethics class. Book is very easy to understand, way better than other ethics books I have read."
192019,2,Does Its Job,"Bought this as a last resort after my previous bookends broke and nothing else seemed to work, as I own a lot of books. The price was pretty good, and it's everything I need in a bookend. Works very well and it allows for movement, which is nice. Do recommend."
192021,2,Two thumps way up!!!!!!!!,"I can write a 10 page review for this film, but I won't because I have a life. This is a dark psychological drama. If you enjoy dark psych dramas this one is a must. What a treat!!!! Eva Green and Maria Valverde give Oscar winning performances."
192052,2,Planters Honey Roasted Peanuts,The product was shipped to me in a very timely manner. I got my product shipment in three days after I ordered it. Thank you.
192057,2,the shirelles,"All original songs as advertised, good sound quality and the price is right at $3.99. Several of the songs on this CD are not on some of the other compilations.Henry Hanka serious Shirelles fan"
192089,2,Excellent interface - also talks to Trek ACH Digital,"Purchased this device to synch with my new Garmin 310XT. Turns out the ANT communications simultaneously works with my Trek bike computer - which is sweet! So, I could use my Trek HR monitor strap and get rid of the temperamental Trek sensors (that wouldn't talk to my Garmin). The beauty is that I can monitor cadence, speed and HR on the Garmin and the Trek simultaneously. That means faster transitions from swim to bike to run since I can just keep the Garmin on my wrist.Nice to get unexpected ""features"" when buying a product."
192101,2,Eval,This is the best electric razor I have ever used. It is slightly less effective that a razor and shaving cream shave.
192181,2,Good for one quick egg at an affordable price.,"It's a very small little nonstick pan that is perfect for frying up one egg. The handle is heat resistant, but the pan heats up fast. I would keep the burner low-medium. Due to the small shape it cooks up a nicely shaped egg - round with thicker whites. I've gotten so used to our egg whites spreading out in our larger pans and being too thin. This one makes eggs perfect for topping off sandwiches or burgers! Overall I know this particular pan won't see a ton of use in our home simply because we rarely make only one egg. Since it's so quick though, I'd probably use it if we're just making a couple. Pretty decent for costing under $10.*I received one to review."
192246,2,"Very helpful, pretty easy","I've grown up reading the Bible and going to church, and I have good foundations in systematic theology. So I'm better grounded than the average North-American Christian. But this book was surprisingly useful in getting the big picture storyline of the Bible. No, really, it surprised me, even though this goal is in the subtitle. The charts and graphs are especially valuable. This book will have a significant influence on our junior high curriculum this summer.Highly recommended, especially since it's so helpful and easy to read. It's a good starter in biblical theology (to use the technical term)."
192285,2,AWESOME BOOK!,"The book was very good. Suspense as well as romance, thrills, its all there! I give this book 2 thumbs up!"
192361,2,Ignore some of the negative reviews and give this one a try!,"I have read a lot of baby books and I think this one IS well layed out and DOES support breastfeeding. Introducing solids at 4 months is NOT a bad thing, but readers and parents need to know that they DON'T have to do what a book tells them to. DO what you want based on YOUR child's development. And the book doesn't suggest switching from breast to formula. It suggests that at about 5 months you can, if you want to, introduce a bottle of breastmilk to a breast feed baby, not formula! The week by week lay out is helpful, but we ALL know that all babies develop differently and that your child is not always going to be a textbook baby! Gosh, people, lighten up!"
192441,2,Pringle Does It Again,"I confess to having a vested interest in Hamish Pringle's writing--I was his co author on the highly successful Brand Spirit: How Cause Related Marketing Builds Brands. He followed that up with a collaboration with someone in consultancy--Brand Manners and now Celebrity Sells. His genial and affable style, accessible to media and communications experts and lay people alike, is built on a firm foundation of careful analysis and case studies. He also captures the zeitgeist--explaining what it is about the 'celebrification' of culture in the early 21st century that strikes a chord with consumers. I can't wait for his next book!"
192446,2,American Girl does it again!,"I'm 13 year old and I love this book. A full 63 page color book. With ""Super Sitter Secrets!"" It is useful and answered a lot of my questions. I have never babysat before (by myself as of December 1st) but there's a lot of useful information such as:-CPR-Sleeping-Calming Children-Changing Diapers-Stop sibling rivalry-And more!!!Great for ages 11 and up.BUT HOLD EVERYTHING!!There was 1 con:In the Babysitter's Buisness Kit, it features this book, business cards, activites, stickers and a lot more for only 2 MORE DOLLARS!I recomend the Babysitter's Buisness Kit.If you are looking for just the book, (But c'mon, only 2 more dollars!) buy the book."
192472,2,Great with a flaw or two,"The instructions for installing and training were very clear and our dog was very quick to pick it up. The installation took about a day for the full 500 ft coverage as was as expected. It is still working well after two months with no problems in the system. The one problem we do have is with the collar. The connections on the receiver come loose from the collar often and we almost lost the whole thing once. We made it a habit of tightening the connections every time we take the collar off and put it on. Also, the whole collar is now fraying terribly where the holes are that we aren't using. We now have to find a new collar since ours will not last much longer. The collar is just too cheaply made. Otherwise, the whole system works great and we are pleased."
192524,2,A great read and still pertinent today,"I read this book when it first came out and just ordered the Kindle edition to have that version. It contains one of the most memorable passages i have read in any of the hundreds of cycling books I have read;""Lemond was in trouble. He had a bout of diarrhea. He rode by me with thirty kilometers to go, surrounded by his domestiques bringing him to the front. God the smell was terrible. It was rolling down his legs. I know if it was me I would stop. But then I am not capable of winning the Tour de France. He is, and I suppose that's thedifference.""-- Paul KimmageReally an excellent book for those interested in pro cycling in the 80's, drugs in sport, or the genesis of the drug issues we see today. Highly recommended."
192580,2,Immigrants' Perspectives,"This movie shows the immigrants' perspectives about their life living in America. The movie consists four different immigrants' lifestyle and their difficulties. Overall, it is kind of depressing, but many thoughts can be reflected through each immigrants' story."
192581,2,STROHEIN'S GREED,"The film is quintessential, the VHS tape, so-so.How come Turner hasn't yet released it on DVD?There must be a policy of urgency to make all these great silent films owned by Turner available on DVD or Blu-Ray.They must be seen by any one who is slightly interested in film."
192660,2,Comprehensive and Logically Organized,"Labor law can be a very confusing subject, with a lot of overlapping statutes and complicated concepts that don't really fit anyplace else in the law. This text was perfect for taking a complete newcomer to labor law from neophyte to adolescent without too much stress. The social comentary was almost always enlightening also -- put the subject in a context of the real world. I know that there are a lot of labor text books, many of them ""classics."" But this is a young, very modern look at a subject area that, in my opinion, is much more appealing for the freshening."
192678,2,"Great material, but basic","After reading half of Randall Hyde's AoA, I got pissed off at reading HLA and bought this book and finished it in a month. This satisfied my expectations. This book uses MASM (Intel syntax) with Visual Studio (Express version is available for free).Pros:- Very clear and explicit explanations and examples- Good structuring of the chapters- Gives the reader excellent insight on the fundamental instructions of x86 instruction setCons:- Doesn't really explain computer architecture in depth, but is expected in a 389 page book concentrating on assembly language, which I find to be the most important- Does not show how to use functions from Visual Studio's libraries (had to learn how to prototype functions myself from Microsoft's website)"
192706,2,The Stones at their height,"Even in the 2010 Jagger interview included with this release Mick says he doesn't remember the band as this tight. While the sound quality and images are not up to 2013 standards there is plenty to hear, see and enjoy for the fan who wants to know why we old people love this band as much as we do."
192717,2,Phil Perry - A Mighty Love,"While I enjoyed this CD, I must admit I was disappointed this was another classic songs CD instead of new material. Phil Perry is a wonderful artist and I'm looking forward to the next CD overflowing with new and exciting material."
192731,2,Food for thought,"After reading this fine book, I am still mulling over the actions of the author. She was offered the world on a platter, and chose to reject love and make her own way in life. She would be a most interesting person to met and conversed with. After reading a biography about Mile Franklin, I believe she did the right thing.A beautiful read.The book still haunts me several days after reading. Assuming the story is more fact than fiction, I propose a motive for the author's actions.The book may have been the 19 century coming out story, which went over peoples heads at the time, and even now. I believe the author was attracted to women. She mentioned several times how she detested the touch of a man, and turned down a marriage proposal that would be most woman's dream. She often lamented on how different she was from other girls. She never married.I suspect the book was written a 100 years before its time, about a subject that was simply taboo.Durgan."
192745,2,Never received item ordered,"I ordered a deep fryer from Amazon but never received it. Fedex refused to leave the box in front of my home, despite my request to do so. If I don't receive the chair that I just ordered because of Fedex, I will never order from Amazon again."
192754,2,A Must Have!,"This is the entire Jeeves and Wooster series. Every episode is a gem. If you like british comedy, this is a must have."
192841,2,"The Brain That Wouldn't Die, which was the forerunner of many similar feature films of that genre.","""I wouldn't watch this in either mixed company or with the kids - there is just so much that an impressionable mind can handle. The Brain That Wouldn't Die is genuinely creepy, and not least of all because it was made at a time when transplantation was still a controversial subject. In that sense, this classic feature film from A2ZCDS is almost prophetic...."""
192972,2,Just for dinner and breakfast and lunch,"This machine is so easy to use that there is no excuse for not having fresh bread whenever you want it. Some tips: do not use packets of yeast. As author Kay Rentschler pointed out in a popular illustrated cooking magazine, the amount of yeast per packet can vary greatly. Buy yeast in bulk and measure it as needed for more consistent results. Also, do check the dough after 4 minutes of kneeding and adjust with a teaspoon of flour or water if needed. (King Arthur's web site is a good resource of what the kneeded bread should look like.) And resist the temptation to eat the bread right away. Let it rest for 20 minutes."
193080,2,Plantronics Voyager 510 Bluetooth Headset,"Works well, easy to configure. Make sure you keep it charged adequately else it will keep shutting down without any warning!"
193122,2,Works great,After 2 years of having my stomach feel icky usually 4-5 days a week I figured I'd give this a try since I couldn't figure out what was causing it. After just a couple days of taking it the stomach aches and icky feel were gone and I've felt 100% better since : )
193142,2,Ancient Rome brought to life,"I picked this book up in a thrift store, never having heard of it. I have a casual interest in ancient Rome and am currently living in Naples, so I thought it would be fun to read. I was astounded by how complete and real Colleen McCullough has made ancient Rome. This book is incredibly well-researched. Every detail adds to the richness of this world. The reader really becomes subsumed into ancient Rome and the characters are exceptionally substantive. The glossary alone is worth reading.The only drawback was the writing was a bit stilted in places, but I would still highly recommend this book. In fact, I have been recommending it to everyone. I cannot wait to read the rest of the series."
193153,2,"well written, but out of date","Since this book is from 1998, it's quite out of date and doesn't cover many new media or ideas from the last few years."
193186,2,The Answer 2 some Great R&B..... No Question!!!,"No Question's re-released debut album on Ruffnation/WB Music is rare gem. The Philadelphia quartet consisting of Thomas Blackwell, Danté Massey, Damon Jer'Core, and Nicholas Johnson have brought R&B/Soul to a higher level of excitement. The lead vocals of Thomas Blackwell on the tracks, ""I Don't Care,"" ""If You Really Wanna Go,"" and ""You Can Get That"" are almost reminiscent of lead singer David Ruffin of the Temptations, K-Ci Hailey of Jodeci, and Sisqó of the famed Dru Hill. The group possesses a style that is almost as rich as Dru Hill's. Their vocal qualities are creamy and euphonious. Their hot vocals are evident on the tracks ""This Weekend"", ""Gospel Outro"", ""New Love"", ""Cover Me"" and ""He Say, She Say"". No Question's album is truly genuine and it looks like they're going to be a household name for years to come and there is NO QUESTION that their heavenly harmony will soothe your soul into the year 2000 and beyond."
193196,2,Great Knife,"Great Knife. I bought this one for my Dad, but I also received the exact one(except color) for Christmas. I really love this knife. It is razor sharp and opens very quickly. It has not left my pocket since Christmas morning. I really love this knife."
193200,2,BEST CHILD'S BOOK EVER!!!!,"I love this book. It is perfect for every child and it's exactly what I wanted to teach my little one. This book is a great reference point whenever my inquiring toddler want to remark about someone of a different size, special need or skin color. I just remind ""God make each of us special and He loves us all."" I gift this often as it really is a special book and my kids love it."
193214,2,Great Resource for Books!,I ordered this book expecting to receive a slightly used book. What I did receive was a textbook that I would have never guessed had been even opened before. This site provides college books in perfect condition at less than half the price. Highly recommended!
193224,2,Celtic Woman Delight,"I first saw this presentation on the local PBS channel and was absolutely awestruck by the quality of the music. Each musician, each and every piece of musical artwork, is presented in finest definition. This is a collection no serious celtic music lover can do without!"
193259,2,great music and excellent underrated R&B singer,"excellent songs on the track, callin me is one of the best ones but this is str8 fiyavery few R&B; singers have this kind of talent and G is one of the best gerald levert cds and its great sexy music"
193302,2,Blew me away!,"The great blowout blew me away. Not knowing what to expect when I bought this book, the author masterfully thrust me into the exciting world of Billy McLaughlin. I found it difficult to put this book down, as I found an almost intimate concern for Billy as he faced many trials and tribulations. This first time author proves to be skillful at describing the physical and meta-physical world where Billy exists. Overall, this tale proves to be a praiseworthy philosophical work. I look forward to reading more from Flaherty, and hope to find Billy in future adventures."
193364,2,Great movie,We watched this movie on a whim and was pleasantly surprised. I have to say that Guy Pierce does action/comedy really well. I guess it also helps that Luc Besson had a hand in this movie too
193367,2,chilling,this book is chillingi am a conspiracy freak and this is the kind of book that gets me goingit is like 1984 with big brother is watchingin a way it reminds me of my school
193401,2,A SOLID INVESTMENT,"BUY THIS BOOK ! This book is concise, detailed and a great way to get your head straight on the stressful purchase of a diamond. Cuellar does an excellent job of educating the reader on the four C's and how to get the best buy for their money. ( I know I did ... Thanks to this book I bought an engagement ring that appraised for more than 70% over what I paid ! ) Charts, worksheets, questionnaires ... and did I mention Cuellar's Helpline ! If you're thinking about making the big move to commitment, or are buying diamonds as an investment, Cuellar can become your best friend. Thanks, Fred !"
193446,2,Close your eyes.....,"Sting's Songs from the Labyrinth is not for the average listener, but it was not meant to be. The music of John Dowland is enlightening, mystical and enchanting for it's time. Any history buff wanting to know the ""rest of the story"" will be intrigued by the tales told by the song lyrics as well as the mini-diary of john Dowland's life as taken from excerpts of his letters. My recommendation is to find a quiet spot (with a campfire or fireplace if possible...), close your eyes and let your imagination soar to a time past; visit the places and feelings that are brought to the forefront through the lyrical vocals of Sting and the enchanting musicianship of Edin Karmazov."
193564,2,The quintessential guide for all chefs,"This book has pretty much every recipe you will ever need. I tend to use this book only as a reference, though, as the recipes are a bit out of date. The recipes provide only the basic ingredients, so beginners may not find the book very useful. For advanced cooks, the Game and Fowl sections are particularly excellent. Also a good resource for French technique."
193573,2,GREAT SCIENCE FICTION,"I purchased this book because I have enjoyed the Sci-Fi novels of David Drake in the past...especially the ""Hammer's Slammers"" series of novels...While this book was edited by, instead of written by Mr. Drake, I enjoyed them all the same, and in particular enjoyed his comments at the end of each story. I recommend it.."
193725,2,iPod Adapter for Car,What a great idea for older vehicles! It works great and is inexpensive! No need to change out your current stereo.
193748,2,The American Revolution as you've never seen it before.,"This movie was slow to start and then very long, but worth it.This movie was slow to start and then very long, but worth it.Mel Gibson is a single father of seven children, so the last thing he needs is to go to war. But when his young son is killed, and then his older son, there is no stopping what Mel Gibson will do for 'the cause'. Battles abound, fierce fights between the English and the colonists all the way up until Cornwall surrenders. This movie takes you through many edge-of-your seat scenes, so be prepared. It's loaded with action, blood and gore, and sadness."
193755,2,Above average content and excellent DVD technicalities,The story and acting is above average.The DVD production is as follows: 1) video: above average 2) audio: excellentThe scene where the fighting was nearing their property produces a pretty accurate sound map. The sources of the artillery firing was accurately positioned and you can actually tell which direction the distant rumbles were coming from. That sort of heightens the tension and realism of the situation.
193772,2,It was a kidnapping that took place on the bus,I thought the book was one of the better one's that I have read in a while. It was an intresting book about a kidnapping that some of the kids could have got out of if..... to figure the rest out read it yourself.
193782,2,FM Modulator for iPOD,"I really like this unit. It's very well made and looked good in the console of the car. I can't give it a five, but only because we live in a very large city and there's interference through most FM frequencies."
193842,2,The right fit,"He said I shouldn't buy his jeans online, I said they're Wranglers, same size you've always worn, they'll fit. They did. Bless Wranglers for being true to the size they say they are."
193876,2,Hey Thomas!,"yes you can put an expansion chamber on this gun, and no it just helps out with co2. for nitro you'd have to buy a low pressure kit but im not sure if you can put one on this gun. if you want your gun more efficent also get a rear velocity adjuster (i prefer dead on's adjuster) a different bolt (rufus dawg wicked bolt) , and a different barrel (ive got a 14"" teardrop on mine). and there are raised sights that you can buy too (ive got a 32 degrees sight). i hope this has answered your questions.P.S. to make this gun faster you can put a response trigger on it BUT you have to send your gun into Tippmann (itll cost you about $189 to get it installed). there is a salution though its called a fire storm crank trigger, and if want to learn wat the crank trigger is or wat it looks like while in action go to paintball-online.com"
193920,2,A DREAM WORTH WAITING FOR,"A dream is what your heart makes. And for years we've been dreaming and wishing that Cinderella would make a comeback. And thanks to the magic of Disney, our wish has been granted. (Please do not mix up this Cinderella with the punk-rock band of the same name. This is music; that is a mess.) We are happy to see (and hear) that extra tracks, including two demo recordings. And though we understand Disney's marketing techniques, we do wish that the added performances by Jim Brickman and Kimberely Locke would go away. Maybe if we close our eyes real tight and chant those three magic words. All together now: bibbidi-bobbidi-boo ..."
193945,2,Good beginning,Dot Hack has definately started out in a good direction. I do agree with the reviews that the worlds had only one dungeon or mystic well to gain unique items but this is dwarfed by the great gameplay. It's possible to take hits while you're connecting with an electrified combo which can strike 3-4 enemies if they get too close. This makes it's real-time fighting with removal of turn-based fighting great. I am around 10 hours into it and in the second server so I will try not to be disappointed when it stops. Worth picking up even though it is a bit high priced.
193996,2,If you love SGC2C....,"You know what you're getting into when buying a set like this. If you love Space Ghost, you'll love this, Zorak and Moltar are funny as heck."
194043,2,Great for Beginners,"I'd say that if you're a beginner, Love Potion will be more helpful than Luscious. With the tutorial and flow practice, you get a lot of solid experience using bellydance moves. Some of the music was good enough that I wouldn't mind buying it, which is often not the case. (I usually can't wait to learn the moves so I can dance to my own music.) The whole goddess/priestess imagery was pretty goofy, but you can turn off the voice over if it gets on your nerves. On the whole, this is a great DVD for building your confidence in bellydance. Note: It's not an exercise workout like some Veena and Neena DVDs. Instead, it is practice for getting your body trained in bellydance."
194056,2,"Buen libro, que hace reflexionar.","Está claro que J.J.Benítez, quiere hacernos llegar alguna clase de mensaje, el mundo que él nos presenta, es del todo factible y por consiguiente peligroso y tenebroso. Para fans de los datos y las metaforas."
194072,2,Satisfied,"Its an awesome product, for collection a must have one, recomended for micro machine and alíen fans"
194098,2,a solid addition to your music rep. . .,"A must own if for no other reason than the song ""Indian Lover""-- Jude put this cd out as a last ditch effort to win over label support by producing a 'sellable' disk. He did. Although a bit too poppy at times for my taste, this is a great addition for those of you who already own ""noone's really beautiful"" Other than Martin Sexton and Ray Lamontagne, there is no better male voice I've found who is still alive and making great music today!!!If you like Ben Folds' ""Rockin the Suburbs"" or Counting Crows ""Hard Candy"" this will be a no brainer to buy"
194103,2,Love it!,"I am enjoying my CD. It arrived quickly in a padded envelop. However, the case was cracked & the case was of poor quality. Thus, I put it in 2 of my old CD cases. Everything was great except the case!"
194199,2,British Isles folk music,Bought this for my girlfriend who is both a fan of and knowledgeable about world music. She only knew a little about Shirley Collins but got a big kick from this disk. The music moves out from the Renn Faire crowd and the May Pole dancers to what I guess we have to call Olde Weird England. Traditional folk music of the British Folks.
194214,2,Love this!,I did quite a bit of research before ordering this for my laptop and I am very pleased with it. It tilts my laptop at the perfect angle to make typing easy.
194258,2,Good value,I was looking for some replacement PC speakers for mostly listening to music. This package had a good price and I was surprised at performance.
194267,2,We Got More,"The album is a 'listen in one go' item for me. And I must say I feel sorry for you guys...I got a version of this magnificent piece of Noise, where a ninth track called: No Soul, No Fear was added.(I can only smile)René - Product:00 - EWA Productions"
194293,2,Wonderful Christian present,My sisters loved this book. It is simple to read and they love reading it. Those that I purchased this for are reading all the time.
194295,2,Multi-function trackball,"I was not a trackball person, but realized I needed one for my first-person games. After a short transition period, I have come to love this little device!I use it for business applications as well as for gaming. I have come back to buy another one for my office.It lacks a ""wheel"" but the driver has a ""3rd button simulation"" which has many possiblities. One of which is a wheel simulator. Good for scrolling through web pages or word documents or whatever.I do not find that this device 'drifts' as was mentioned above. It is simple to clean, mostly maintenace free (depending upon how much you sweat when playing first-person games). The optical sensor works like a charm. The ball is easily removable.. just make sure you don't let the ball fall out when transporting the trackball.."
194326,2,The true beginning of heavy metal,"Although on their first album Black Sabbath brought the world the first heavy metal album, Paranoid took heavy metal and shoved it down the throat of evry person on earth. Paranoid got wider exposure, and attracted many more people to heavy metal. That said, Paranoid is one great album. While containing Sabbath classics like War Pigs, Paranoid, an Iron Man(which contains the best Tony Iommi riff EVER....adn that's saying alot), it also contains my personal favorite Sabbath song, Electric Funeral. THat song just sounds so irresistably weird and has some great lyrics. Although Planet Caravan requires soem getting used to it's still a pretty good track. Overall this album is heavy and has formed the basis for almost all metal music. so go out there and get it. and i mean NOW"
194384,2,Compelling,"I thoroughly enjoyed ""Bruchko"" and stayed up late several nights out of my desire to know what would happen in the next chapter. I deeply appreciate Bruce Olsen's honesty and vulnerability. He does not hide behind platitudes, nor does he gloss over the difficult aspects of mission work. I look forward to having my students read this memoir and anticipate them reaping much good from their time spent with Bruchko and the Motilone."
194453,2,Great for studing for the CSET exam!,"I just purchased this book and I am using it as a supplement to Jerry Bobrow's CSET muliple subject test prep book (Cliffs Test Prep) and it is great! It's written in a simple language, and contains all sorts of review,pictures, charts, etc. It has been MANY years since I have studied science and this so far is helping me remember all the material neccessary for passing the test."
194539,2,Some of Al's best work to date!,"This is probably my third favorite Al-Bum (behind Running With Scissors, and, that's right, Polka Party!). Terrific parodys include ""Amish Paradise"", ""Gump"", and ""Phony Calls"". This Al-Bum also features some great originals by Al, like ""Everything You Know Is Wrong"" (my favorite song on the Al-Bum), ""Callin' In Sick"", ""I Remember Larry"", and ""The Night Santa Went Crazy"". Everything on the Al-Bum is great!"
194540,2,One of Al's best,"Weird Al has always produced great quality music but he once again outdid himself with this exceptional CD. Not only are the hilarious lyrics worth buying this CD, but he also shows great variety in the way he sings. This man never ceases to amaze me with his music, and this CD is another proof of that. If you like Al, you'll love this CD!"
194563,2,Superb!!!,"This is one of the best DW novels I've ever read! It is superb! The writing is brilliant--funny, scary, adventurous, and action-packed. The plot is perfect. It all fits together so well. This is the best novel I've ever read with the 8th Dr. I highly recommend this one to any DW fan! Mr. Baxendale did a fantastic job. Get this one!"
194567,2,Easy Install,"I was then able to connect it to my power cord using the kind of metal stress relief cable clamp you can buy at the local hardware store, but even then it was difficult because the cable clamp wasn't big enough to fit secure. through the hole in the body of the disposer where the grommet came out. I made do though, and the final result was fine. All of the water and drain aspects went flawlessly. I purchased and installed this Disposer and am happy with it, overall. My only complaint is that the unit arrived with a conventional 3-prong power cord already installed through a grommet in the side. I had to hook up to a metal shielded 3-wire cable under my sink. Of course i had to remove the power cord on the unit, and it was quite difficult removing the grommet. Essentially i had to pry it out with a screwdriver."
194581,2,an attention grabber,"I like true crime and historical novels and this one has it all. It is a terrible story, makes your stomach turn over in places but it is because it is true. Texas is my home state and I have read a lot about it but this novel brings things in that I knew nothing about. The 1920s is also interesting to me and this happened in an area and among people whose lives I knew nothing about. I really, really liked it."
194752,2,BOSTON CLUB HEROS OF THE MID/LATE 80S NEVER GOT THEIR DUE!!!,"Funk-infused thinking-man's rockers reigned the Boston club scene of the 1980s. From the guitar hooks of ""With You"" to the haunting ""Up Up Up"" O Positive and frontman Dave Herlihey created a distinct voice in the wake of commercial success of then alternative REM. This is a great compilation."
194770,2,"Great Songs, Anointed Music",One of the best worship tape ever produced....It is worth every dollars...anointed...
194813,2,"An excellent collection! Deep, thought-provoking.","Donald Justice's work is lyrical and traditional, with a broad reach that pulls you in to his vision of the world. Justice's poetry reflects the certainties of our lives and forms a basis for poetic discourse.Justice often uses mirror imagery in his poems. In fact, mirrors used to reflect the soul are a major theme in his New and Selected Poems. The mirrors here demonstrate the way our reflections show us an inner ""face,"" not the ones we fix for the world to see. Justice employs this sense of duality to represent thedifferent ""faces"" of human nature. We all have a bright side that we show the world, and, beneath, a more secret self. This is the image that is often fogged, and warped when we peer closely into it."
194839,2,Busta Bus.......Taking it to the next level.......E.L.E.,"This new album from busta Rhymes is his most creative one yet. The thing about busta that makes him so tight is his flow and the way he brings it to you and the beats he uses. This album is all that and might look crazy, but is more concious about the future than any other hip/hop record out there. Even Wu-tang! He brought Janet Jackson,Mystical, and ozzy osborn along this time as guests, as well as the Flipmode Squad. It could have done without mystical, but since busta keeps it tight it's alright. The song with janet is the best collaboration out of the three artists on here. They really worked on this one. Give this album a try and trust me Fans and Non-Fans of busta won't be disssapointed at all. Busta keeps you in full check with beats while not forgeting what times we are in, keeping it even more real. Check this album out Now! You won't regret!Until his new album...Anarchy drops in June."
194849,2,Great CD for power walking,"This CD is very motivating for moving along the pavement! Very fun, disco beat! Walk your mile in no time flat!"
194875,2,vellux blanket,"I have always been fond of Vellux blankets.The quality is good,they are lightweight,good for summer and winter.But the current one I purchased is not really as good as the old one I feel.Not as soft."
194888,2,Great soap,"I love this soap, it's good for your skin and it smells great. Long lasting....And rinses clean. I have been gifting it and people who receive it also say it is wonderful."
194901,2,Woman's View,"Hardly a pretty subject, but enlightening and rewarding to experience war from the devastating viewpoint of womankind - for a change."
194932,2,Silk The Shocker is the Shit!!!,"Silk puts it down for the south once again. Even though this album is not as dope as Charge It 2 The Game, Silk still shows that he hasn't forgotten where he came from."
194933,2,"More on this, than the live action DVDs","I'm often asked, ""Who is the best Batman?"" No doubt about it. Kevin Conroy IS Batman. He has the overpowering voice that puts fear into criminals. Tim Daly is awesome as Superman. Like Conroy, he has an excellent Superman voice; but, in a different way.The animated series of Batman & Superman were well written, well voiced, & were drawn very well.Filled with features, unlike the live action DVDs, The batman/Superman DVD is sure to be among the best ever animated DVDs. The major drawback, however, is, there is always so much more they could have done. It seems as if ALL the DVDs have the same extras. Some interviews with the actors, and some deleted scenes and other behind the scenes clips is always awesome.I give this a 41/2 out of 5 stars. Or, 95 of 100."
194966,2,Solid Item ** Good Quality,"This bike rack is very nicely made. Easy to install. Looks attractive on back of vehicle. Fits my Tracker perfectly and snugly. The only negative thing I would say would be to improve the paint used on the Allen name on the rack, it is already starting to fade, which makes the rack look older than it should."
194971,2,Great for Toyota Rav 4,"I bought this bike rack for local use, although we use it for a family trip to Yosemite. It is easy to put on and take off and was very stable once bikes were completely tied down with bungie cords and straps. We only used it for two bikes. Not really sure if three bikes would work or even fit. Had to buy the Allen adapters bars for our bikes to fit on the rack.Overall very pleased with this product. It meets our needs for two bikes."
195000,2,Somewhere Between Grisham and Peretti,"The Sacrifice should be read by every educator, student and parent. The issue of violence in our schools is unfortunately not a dead issue, as the shootings in Germany demonstrated. Whitlow gives us some answers. I highly recommend this newest book, as well as his other two, The List and The Trial."
195009,2,Sweet,Love these boots. They are very comfortable. I wear them without sock and they keep my feet nice and warm.
195012,2,ugg women's classic tall in black,"great boots, but as previous poster said, the black will dye your feet! also, they fit big; i bought 7s but i am wondering if i should have bought 6s. i haven't tried the 6s so i'm not sure. it's too bad they don't have half sizes.also, if your feet are ladies size 8 or smaller, it is cheaper to buy the children's uggs! (only thought of this after i bought mine.)all in all, great boots. i'm glad i bought them."
195041,2,Wallflowers,"Great book. Must read for all, very shocking ending. I hope you enjoy it as much as me. I'm sure you will!!!"
195082,2,Beautiful,I thought this book was inspiring. I loved it. I definitely recommend it to anyone having a difficult time. Just great.
195137,2,It works,It works as advertised. I use this so that I can plug the transmitter for my Sennheiser RS 160 into my Denon receiver's headphone jack.
195157,2,Highly Recommended!,"This book collects provocative, insightful essays by Russell L. Ackoff, architect turned city planner turned behavioral scientist turned professor. True to his convictions about systems thinking, his pieces form a coherent whole. Like a successful system, the whole of this book is greater than the sum of its parts. And what parts: the roots of systems thinking; a properly irreverent approach to bureaucracy; the role of planning; a standard for mission statements; effective advertising advice. Ackoff is a voice in the wilderness as he fondly remembers his bureaucracy-bucking, folly-filled, smart-as-heck past. Although this book tends to veer toward the academic, managers and students of management will find it useful. We [...] recommend it to anyone seeking insight on creativity, education, and science. Tear into this book a little at a time; you won't be disappointed."
195200,2,Pretty interesting reading,"Despite the title, this book is actually about the downfalls of modern psychology. It's critique is fairly well reasoned, and accurate in many respects. I think the author gives too little credit to many individuals who well realize the downsides of feel-good psychology, but in general many of his points are well taken. The criticism in the main is also a defense of Christianity as the more valid and useful (and true), of the two possibilities, which he sees (and makes a good arguement for seeing) as inherently incompatible. I don't agree with everything he says - largely because my own beliefs and views are substantially different from his on several points, but many of his concerns are well taken. I.e. self-esteem without grounds is merely narcissism and self-worship. Worth the time I spent reading it."
195219,2,Great Book = Great Movie,"If you enjoy the classic film noir ""Laura"" as much as I have for years, you might enjoy comparing the literary and cinematic approaches to the story by the same writer, Vera Caspary. I found the additional materials in this edition fascinating! (The first edition I read was a yellowed copy from the public library with no academic additions.)At one point I attempted to order my own copy of ""Laura"" the novel but received ""Laura"" the stage play instead. This accident added to my fascination with this singular piece of American storytelling.What a way to experience the unique perspectives of our great American art forms-- fiction, film, and theater-- in one artist's varied formats. Enjoy!"
195228,2,Love the clip art!!,"Tons of different images, fonts, and borders. It is very easy to use and the large book with all of the images in it is very handy."
195246,2,Great buy!,"I needed this book for a philosophy class and I am very pleased with its condition. For a school book, this was a great deal!"
195277,2,This is really great!,"I really did not like Britney Spears much, and all I heard and saw of her was her videos, songs, and outfits! But this video takes you behind the scenes and you get to know the REAL Britney...not the radio or the MTV Britney. She is so nice and I am so glad that Britney Spears has found another fan...me!"
195288,2,AOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"Great item, great price, 3 day ship."
195303,2,desmistifying angels,"If you like ancient mithology and particulary related to ""winged beings"", don't miss this book. Their 'history' goes far back in time and they not always had 'wings'. Really good reading and very informative!!!!"
195342,2,good if you like Treasure Planet stuff,"I love Treasure Planet sooo much I just had to buy this soundtrack.If you like Treasure Planet,you should do the same."
195349,2,David's at it again,This David Shannon book has taught my grandson the do's and do NOT's. It's a funny escapade through David's house but Momma loves him no matter what!
195379,2,"So far, so good","We have had the electric mower for a few weeks. It was used only once, because the grass was wet from rain. So far, we are happy with it."
195383,2,Perfect ...,"I bought this to pre-heat my diesel tractor and back hoe when it's too cold for a normal start. It works great, as long as you remember to turn it on a few hours before you need to start the engine. The magnet is very powerful. In fact, I can leave it in place while operating the machines and it's never fallen off, yet it's easy to move from machine to machine too ..."
195494,2,One of the greatest albums ever,"I could go on all day about Death Cerificate, so instead, I'll keep this short. This is the greatest album of the last 10 years. Period. This man is a genius. So, buy this CD because it is essential listening."
195546,2,Literary Whydunnit,"In her work on the events surrounding the duel that killed famed Russian writer Pushkin, Vitale weaves a literary web of both his contemporaries' accounts of the events leading up to the duel and its repercussions, and the often tangled motives of the players and those who reported their actions. Similar in its reconstruction techniques to Charles Nichols' ""The Reckoning"" (dealing with the murder of Christopher Marlowe), ""Pushkin's Button"" reads like a great mystery, and a window onto upper class Russian society of the day"
195549,2,Medieval Space-Folk Witchery,"What can be said about a band that is mentioned in the infamous ""Nurse With Wound List"", is cited as an influence by Hans Jochim Roedelius, scored Roman Polanski's Macbeth and shared a violinist with Hawkwind, High Tide and David Bowie?Very little it seems, since very little has ever been said or written about this band. Equally parts pastoral and spacey, archaic and futurist, tranquil and frightening.This cd consists of three rare albums collected on two discs. One studio and one live from 1990 and the ""Abelard and Heloise"" BBC production soundtrack from 1970. The recent recordings are equal in quality to the vintage. This usually sells for the price of one album.Will appeal to fans of: Amon Duul, Brian Eno, Dead Can Dance, Comus, Ash Ra Tempel, David Sylvian, (K)Cluster, Nurse With Wound, Michael Rother, Sun Ra and anything on the 4AD or ECM labels."
195619,2,This Little Driver Rocks,"I am going to keep this short. For starters I am tough on my tools and this driver screamed testosterone. I was worried about the power but after driving some 3 inch screws in an oak board to test it out I was really impressed. After putting it to work hanging cabinets my buddy asked me how long the batttery lasted because it seemed to go all day. It easily drove 100 screws and drilled all the holes I could have ever asked for. The case could be a little better and Bosch should offer a FULL set of drill bits, drivers, countersinks and adapters for the one stop purchase. My buddy now owns the same driver.... If you don't have one you will wish you did."
195634,2,Great Radio!,"I've had mine now for about 18 months. It performs as a radio quite well so I won't delve into that. Other reviewers have already done a fine job of that.Mine has survived a few considerable drops and still works great. The case shows some damage. So this is a sturdy radio.My biggest pet peeve is with the darn Timer Standby feature. Something I will never need. The problem with it is that it is far too easy to turn it on by accident. And the default power-on time is 1:00 a.m. I have been woken up many times at 1:00 a.m. because of this. One can change the power-on time, but every time the batteries needs changing it reverts to 1:00 a.m."
195705,2,"excellent product, cheap rate quick serive n shippment",Amazon shipped this product to me in 3 days. the product is good and is giving the result it is supposed to give.
195742,2,Very Funny and enjoyable film,"It was a very pleasant surprise. I bought it because of Dancing With The Stars Cristian De La Fuente. I didn't know anything about him. I knew Morales and Martinez, both very fine actors. I liked it very much and would highly recommend it."
195773,2,Excellent Book,This books touches on relegious aspects of the modern days. It touches on important points of the Gospel of Jesus Christ that the New and Old Testament leave out. For anyone who has the desire to better themselves this book is the one for you.
195843,2,Great Gift for Teenage Girls,"As a 50+ adult, I still enjoy reading good fiction written for children and teenagers. And after reading this book, I quickly ordered it and the next one in the series for my two teenage nieces. The books in the On Tour series are wholesome and enjoyable reading and will hold a teenager's attention. Although they are aimed primarily at readers in their early teens, I highly recommend them as gifts for any teenage girl (and for any grown girl that still enjoys teen fiction)."
195849,2,Welcome Home,This book is a must read for anyone who is searching for information on the new spiritual awareness of the 5th dimension or for anyone who just wants to feel good about humanity going forward. Made my eyes swell with tear of joy.
195904,2,Jesus and the Unlocking of the ...,"I liked the resolution of the story/research threads, and ordered a copy for my friend, a candidate for the Roman Catholic diaconate."
195926,2,Love this baby book,I researched so many baby books for our first son and got the blue version of this book. We love that it is spiral bound with pockets for cards/ultrasounds etc. So when we conceived the second time I went researching for another book just as nice. Well could not find one so went back to the same then realized there is a yellow version so we bought this up quick. There are small changes but perfect to separate our kids yet kept the same theme. It has suck a great range of topics for the first year even at two years we have added to it based off the topics so it is a perfect book to have for your baby's first year +.
195933,2,Mouse safely captured,"We had a small, very cute, gray mouse in our house. We set up the tip trap with a bit of peanut butter, and within hours the little guy was safely contained. We drove to a park to release the mouse and the trap was easy to open, and the mouse escaped safely. For people concnered about being humane, these traps are an excellent option."
195953,2,"VTEC 5,8 Cordless Phone","Great product! Easy to use, and loads of features. I think the quality at least matches that of the name-brand phones I've purchased. Yes, I would recommend this phone to my friends!"
195970,2,So much for a digital clock stereo,"It also features bass boost and most of the needed stereo material. Don't leave this behind anyway you probabally won't like it at first. I am always using certain musical electronics. Also instruments. But first you may not like it too much. But it's for the big minds, not little. But it's not the way it looks, it's the way it acts."
195978,2,loveable characters,"I enjoy this movie more and more when I watch it. You either love it or hate it like opera. There are subplots and the parents are precious. I wonder if this movie isn't based on some real life situations since most of the movie has characters that are similar to people I have met in real life. Even I have had to move back in with my parents for a while. Face it, who doesn't want to get naked if the opportunity presents itself. Who hasn't had thoughts of wanting to get rid of pesky animals? Who doesn't know people who are geeky, aggressive, silly, unpredictable? In other words, plan to watch this movie with an open mind and have fun with it."
196003,2,i liked it,i think the author done a good job and i read the book within the day.and i learned some things i had not known before.
196006,2,The Greatest Movie of All Time,"This movie is wonderful! Natasha Lyonne shines as she greets us with a comical character. Her name is ""Viv"" and Rita shines also!!! I love this movie and if you like American Pie or Not Another Teen Movie then you will surely love this one!"
196109,2,Hilarious,This book was one of the funniest I have read lately. Chelsea has such a way of describing things that you are unable to anticipate what may come out of her mouth next. Overall great read!
196132,2,nice album..,"""Leccion de vuelo"" is a very nice album. this guy has style and class.I really didn't waste my money,all the songs are good.He has not a powerfull voice but, it is very nice and soft to my hears.My favs:Intocable.- nice ballad.Laberinto.-with belanova. one of the best tracks.pop dance song.Entra.- it's a nice piece.Tu hechizo.- it sounds like a retro style ,very 70 or 60,lovely.The rest are really good songs.You won't feel bad ,if you buy this cd.."
196175,2,aerosmith rocks!!,"This is an awesome single, the song ought to tell you that. I mean what more do you need to go on??!"
196205,2,The real significance of MYTHS & TEXTS.,"MYTHS & TEXTS provides a drama play of the mind temple which is posed at a point of watershed where human evolutional trends of literary, spiritual. religious, cultural, anthropological, and philosophical quests converge in word of poetry and represented in condensed forms. It also opens the access to the postmodern world of open space that we either knowingly or unknowingly are posed in. Where the vista is cosmic, mind is never lost but most expanded though inwardly. Sailing along, you'll find that not only the mountain but the Universe is your mind.(P.S.: A thorough study and thesis was written but unpublished.)"
196221,2,"Not THE best cowgirls, but one of the best!","These guys are so reliable. Pat Todd is getting older but he still writes great songs, and has great artisic integrity. He has to be one of the only 50 year old rockers that still writes and performs like it's his first record.All the songs are good, but some stick out as great: Boerne Girl, Burning Daylight, and Give It Away.Buy this thing if only to support one of the last true rock n roll bands left! And see them live. They never disappoint!"
196234,2,Love the whole series,"I loved all of the books in the series, the plot lines are unique in each book, and this one is especially good. The killer was a surprise (for the most part, since I tend to read the ending about half way through-the suspense makes me nuts!) and the characters well developed. Abby isn't perfect, and neither is anyone else in the book, which makes it all the more enjoyable. If you are on the fence about getting this one, jump over and join the rest of us! It's great!"
196262,2,I Love This CD!!!!!,"I am so in love with this cd!!!! I don't even speak spanish. the best song is ""Candela"". I just love it!!!!!"
196294,2,Listen ...with a wink and a smile,"Like most of the other reviewers, I wasn't quite sure what to think about this CD with its wacky song titles and album art that looks as if the artist was equally influenced by Napoleon Dymanite, bad 70s karate movies, and marijuana.And yet...this CD is FUN!!! The songs make me laugh out loud, dance along, and nod with amused understanding at the same time. The lyrics could have been written by your brothers college band, if all of the band members happend to be Harvard English majors with exceptional musical ability and a talent for comic timing. The overall impression sounds like Relient K joined the Gym Class Heroes, as fronted by Jason Mraz and produced by Justin Timberlake's producer.I highly recommend this CD!"
196297,2,Well Worth Watching Through to the End,"The ending had me laughing. Haha, it did not disappoint Rachel Nichols' awesomely intense face. She makes a fantastic heroine who fights back. The situation is realistic and the dog scene reminded me on the Germans setting dogs on their rape victims in France and Belgium in both the First and Second World Wars. Lovely. The acting is great and the storytelling is efficient and polished."
196459,2,A NON-FICTION PAGE-TURNER!!,"SMALL TOWN GHOSTS is well-written and highly fascinating from beginning to end, packed with actual case studies -- along with techniques for the novice, armchair ghost hunter, and expert in the field. If you love to read personal, well-documented accounts of paranormal research, or if you want to get into paranormal research, this book is for you."
196486,2,Good but....,"Pretty good print server. The response time is great. I've used it with both my Brothers Multifunction machine and a lowend Canon inkjet. Both worked great. The setup it simple on my wired/wireless networks ... my only complaint is of its strictly parallel interface. These day, being forced to buy/use a printer with that interface(as opposed to USB) will greatly limit your selection and therefore the usefulness of this device. But if that's not an issue... this machine is great!"
196492,2,A LOST TREASURE,I also have searched for YEARS to find this cd. Not until I started buying on Amazon did I ever dream i could find it again. It is fabulous. And the greatest xmas music ever produced.
196558,2,A blessing this music truly is,"The music of Bliss from Denmark, is my best discovery over the last 10 years..!I am amazed by their intelligent touch and delicacy and depth of their music. Everytime I listen to their records, it amazes me how I love their melodies, but especially the variation in soundscapes, rhytms, the instruments they use. It completely fits my life frequency and taste. Ths album AFTERLIFE is maybe the best they made, although I also love QUIET LETTERS very much. All my friends are equally impressed everytime they hear BLISS the first time. Anyone who likes downtempo, melodic music will fall in love - for sure!"
196563,2,"can anyone say ""MESCALINE"" ...?","yeah this album is really good. i find it rediculous when opinionated beatles fans flame stones recordings. its like comparing apples to oranges... i happen to LOVE both bands for various reasons.anyone who gives their satanic majesties request a serious listening will find that there are all sorts of ""moments"" in this album... where it comes together perfectly to form musical bliss.in my own opinion, its not as good as anything from their 68-72ish stint. that doesnt mean its a bad album, just that its not insanely good...if your a real stones fan, defenantly pick up this album. there are more than a handful of songs that will totally suprise you, in a good way."
196569,2,More Tom as Jesse,"I like the character of Jesse Stone. I added this movie to my collection, but the ending has me worried about the future of Jesse in Paradise. I'm hoping things will be able to work out in the next (is there a next?) movie, so Jesse can go back to Paradise. More for Tom as Jesse."
196575,2,Great Chessboard,"It is a standard-size chessboard with a decent price1. Comes with an extra Queen (In case you are lucky enought to promote!)2. Pieces are heavy and nice to play with.3. You can roll or fold the board.4. Comes with a bag, but the zipper borke the first time I used itNot outstanding, but Good to have!"
196626,2,I return to it again and again.,"Though much work has been done on the subject since its original publication, this book has insights and a basic framework for addressing the issue which bring me back to it time and again. It is rooted in the wisdom of Augustine, Aquinas, and Lewis, but is contemporary without being technical. If you had trouble with Plantinga's _God, Freedom, and Evil_ but are beyond _Why Bad Things Happen to Good People_, then this book might be just the happy medium for you. On the other hand, don't skip it just because you're an analytical philosopher. There is some interesting stuff in here for you to."
196726,2,Hey Jude is worth it all by itself.,"If you grew up with this music like I did, than some of the tunes are likely to draw out some memories and possibly along with a tear. The DVD and performance just gets better as you go. Of course I would love to have 20 more songs and 2 more hours, but this is a great DVD. I was at the show in Dallas, TX in 1989 and it was great. There are moments that you think Paul is 28 again on some of the songs. The old Beatle classics just reminds me of how huge of an icon this man is and what an incredible talent. And of course the fab four classics are the highlights here but put it there is really a nice piece. This is just a great release for any Beatle or Paul McCartney fan. For the budget conscious its a bit pricey and takes a while to get, but if you can foot it, grab one and hold on. The memories will last for a long time."
196776,2,Great Product,"I am very pleased with PrintMaster 16. I ordered two copies - one for home and one for work, and I use it both places."
196793,2,Amazing debut novel,"Being a sucker for ""Pygmalion""- inspired tales, I found this book both entertaining and moving. I now see the women I encounter at Gold's Gym in a whole different, and somewhat more poignant light. Well done."
196816,2,The Music,"I think that this is a good CD. But that is only because it has my absolute favorite songs on it. The Johto Theme song, He Drives Me Crazy, and Two Perfect Girls."
196884,2,The Boys of History,"The award-winning play by Alan Bennett is a great read. More devoted to the influence of words (the ""dictionary"" boy role of Posner) and music than the later screenplay, the play emphasizes the differing perspectives on education of the two lead teachers (Hector and Irwin). Without the need to ""open up"" demanded by film Bennett focuses on the schoolroom and uses subtle effects to effect his dramatic purpose. In doing so he is successful in creating a delightful dramatic and comedic portrayal of ideas, all while evoking the spirit of bright young scholars at a key turning point in their lives."
196954,2,Functional and Attractive Clipboard,The product was sent in the time indicated. It isin very good condition and is exactly what was stated in the description. It has ample room for storage of papers and markers with a clip on the front to secure papers in place. It appears to be durable although it really has not been used yet.
197009,2,Great movie,"This movie is really great. You learn a lot about history, and a lot about one of the countries best architects!!!"
197022,2,Great Product,This is exactly what I wanted. This sling doesn't stretch and has the rubber padding which will stick to your clothing to ensure that there is no slipping. I have both a leather sling and then this sling and I this sling will hold up to a leather sling. It may not have the look of the leather sling but it looks great on my all back rifle. It comes with the easy attach swivels and is very easy to attach to the rifle. When I was looking into what sling to purchase I went to Cabelas and Gander Mountain to look at the slings and then purchased it off Amazon. It was in the same packaging and looked identical to the one in the stores. I would recommend this product to anyone!!
197035,2,"THE IRISH ""BRAVEHEART"": LENGTHY BUT ENGROSSING","Passionate screenplay and breathtaking cinematography, supported by Goldenthal's top notch background score: this film truly surprised me.Plot-wise, you will learn a lot about the Irish rebellion against the British. The story, I found on some googling, has some crevices (e.g., Ned Broy was NOT murdered by the Tans as shown in the movie, in reality he survived the whole thing and went on to become the first head of the Gardai, the unarmed Irish police force.)Yet, the superbly executed plotline unravels with an exciting pace, and is easy to follow. I was riveted.Acting-wise, tight convincing performances all around, seems they couldn't have selected anyone better than Liam Neeson to portray Collins, although Julia Roberts was a bit expendable (and what's with that ill-achieved Irish accent!) Alan Rickman as de Valera was stunning as usual.Despite its length, the film does full justice to the inspiration character of Collins. Recommended!"
197084,2,Great read!,This was one of her better stories. I couldn't put it down. The twists and turns kept me reading and I finished it in one day.
197121,2,Good for All,This book should be required reading for all citizens. This text lays out a comprehensive approach to a meaningful built environment.
197169,2,Fantastic Book. Practically a Work of Art,"Donald Bull obviously knows his corkscrews. He has assembled a fascinating exposition on corkscrews which delights your eyes as you turn each page. If you thought corkscrews were just for opening bottles, you're wrong. Donald Bull shows you that corkscrews are works of art as well.The layout is beautiful and his corkscrew erudition is undoubtable. You should get a copy for yourself. A work of art."
197195,2,A false prophet comes to Antioch,"A dense, layered book that concerns the life of widower Travis Jordan, a former Pentecostal minister, whose town is turned upside-down by the arrival of a young man claiming to be Jesus Christ; other supernatural signs (a weeping statue in a Catholic Church, mysterious healings) also occur, leading the townspeople to believe that Antioch is destined for great things. But is the mysterious stranger Brandon Nichols really a messenger from God? Or is his power from another source?The novel is deeply layered and is predominantly told in the first person narrative from Travis's point of view. We learn of Travis's early life in the ministry, his adolescence and young adulthood and how those events have shaped him into the man he is today.The ending is a bit implausible and somewhat slow in coming, but it's a good read nonetheless."
197230,2,Nice targets,"These are nice targets for the price, I paid $50 for 100 targets. The only negative is that the paper is very thin and the targets tend to rip very easy whether you staple or tape them to your target frame on windy days or from the force of impacts. Blue color makes the target realatively easy to see at longer ranges as well but bullet impacts are very difficult to see at any range past 25 yards or so (these are not glow targets)"
197252,2,"suspensful, and creepy.","I love this movie, at first when the mother brings the children to the grandparents house she seems like she really cares for the four children but she really cares for the money... So overall the movie is suspensful, creepy, and can trickv you though the whole movie!..."
197290,2,If you're not going to dance get you ass of the floor...,"This is it. 99% of the world didn't have a clue who the hell Nirvana was when Bleach came out, but did that deplete the quality of the album? This is a wonderful debut album from a band I'm certain we'll be hearing alot from one day. So get yours before they become trendy."
197301,2,Worked perfectly for what I needed,"Can't complain... product arrived as described. It wrapped around the wardrobe pole and was easy to place a large amount of my clothing in it. I placed about 5 coats in here, a suit, and about 10 dresses. They're packed in there but they will be free from the basement odors and in my mind- BUGS!!! haha"
197454,2,outstanding,"After TSA broke my first travel golf bag; after extensive research I bought this one. Rolls well,travels well,TSA approved. My clubs reached my destination in one piece and secure. Locking device could be more secure. American made and $1500.00 assurance if damaged is a great piece of mind. I spent good money for my clubs and I now have great travelling protection. I would recommend this item.SKB 2SKB-4814W Deluxe ATA Golf Travel Case"
197459,2,Snug as a bug...,"This swaddle was a gift and worked the best by far -- better than the receiving blankets that my daughter quickly outgrew and WAY better than the velcro-tabbed swaddles (which are loud in the middle of the night when you try to tuck that wiggle worm's arm back into it). I bought a 2nd one so that we always had one clean! This swaddle along with the ""Happiest Baby on the Block"" DVD is gift I will give other parents-to-be -- both were fantastic! (and my husband agrees)"
197491,2,An Outstanding Film on Our Greatest Rival,"Mitch Anderson's China's Century of Humiliation is an in-depth look at the impact of China's history and culture on its relationship with the Western world. Drawing on historical documents; interviews with international scholars, a prominent Chinese dissident, and a leading Chinese journalist; and glimpses inside modern-day Chinese life, it presents a balanced portrait of the often troubling Western involvement in China and how that involvement continues to affect China's view of and approach to world issues. This is a must-see film for serious students of Chinese affairs and those who are simply seeking an understanding of what makes China tick."
197540,2,"Overall, relaay good 10/22 build up book","This book has some great concepts on some great ways to build up a Ruger 10/22 to a bad ass targer rifle. Most of the ideas will end up making a $200 rifle into a $1000+ .22 using the Nordic kit, and similar high end build kits. Then to add optics. They seem to be big fans of the Eotech sights, another $500 addition to a $200 gun. Long and short, if you have the resources (ie. money), to take a basic level gun to a way higher level, this a great book with alot of good ideas to follow or to use as a base for your own concept 10/22. It's got some really phenominal tacti-cool designs."
197571,2,Great mystery for non-mystery lovers,"I am leaving on my first visit to Cuba in two weeks, and am reading everything I get my hands on. A friend recommended this and, though I rarely read mysteries, I followed her advice. I found the writing to be quite good and the story exciting; but the most compelling thing was the evocation of place. I feel like I'm already back from my trip, and that I got to know Havana in a way most Americans never will. I know this is a novel, and that the people of Cuba are far more complex than the good guy (and girl)/bad guy dichotomy that's set up here; but the feel of the air on my skin and its smell in my nose is what I've missed in the other Cuba books I've read."
197618,2,Love it!,"I bought the matching mortar and petsel, so they look nice on the countertop. Garlic is always on hand when you need it!"
197628,2,"Hey, this is the greatest one ever written!","Look, I know that there wasn't enough of Jaina and Zekk but at least Anja is clearly out of the picture. I was really steamed at both Jacen and Zekk for getting a crush on Anja. They've known Jaina and Tenel Ka for three years or more and they've only known Anja for what, three or four days?"
197634,2,I love this movie!,All the characters in this movie are hysterical. Adam Sandler and his buddies are always busy getting in trouble. It shows true family joys and problems.
197700,2,These are AWESOME!,"I LOVE these headphones, I used them roughly 10 hours a day for 3 weeks straight, And they still work! (Only used one battery too!) I got a Used pair that came with a power brick, And they wore better than my friends Beats he paid $100+ for!"
197882,2,Great Follow-Up to Pet Detective,"Silly in an entirely different way from Pet Detective, you'll still be holding your sides in laughter during this movie. Unforgettable scenes."
198009,2,This is Kitaro!,"Silk Road 2 is a beautiful piece of music, and again Kitaro shows himself to be a master in painting a picture with music. The ten pieces on this disk are exquisitely done and can, if you let them, transport you to another place and time. This is an excellent sequel to Silk Road 1, and I highly recommend it."
198015,2,Good addition to my collection,With family members who are diabetic this gave me a good variety of dishes I can have when they come to visit. Also handy for company potlucks - I list the dishes as diabetic friendly and people feel more comfortable eating.
198017,2,Beautiful book,"Great pictures. Beautiful book. If you really love the Yankies, you'll want to leave this one out on your coffee table to share with your friends and relatives or just pick up and browse in a spare minute. I love this book!"
198021,2,Great start to a great series,I'm a big fan of the Phryne Fisher series. I read this book quite a while back and bought it to reread on my kindle. The characters are engaging and Phryne is a a gem. She is very 'liberated' and such a free spirit for the era. The mystery itself is exciting and keeps the story moving at a good clip. I don't want to give spoilers so I won't go into details though the handling of the bathhouse was done very well. I highly recommend the whole series.
198028,2,Great peace of work,"This cd really brings out the best on Lynwood slim's vocals.If you love Jump, Swing-blues, then you'll love this too."
198073,2,ever present God,"Once in a while a writer opens their soul so they can touch ours. My God and I is memoir with theological depth. Lewis Smedes shares his wounds with forward movement. He reminds us that we all have wounds, but how have they and will they shape us. I am thankful for his constant reminder that God is present, even if we can't or don't want to believe it."
198160,2,Delicious!!,"It is such a shame that even after winning a golden globe award, they cancelled this promising show. We can only hope that another network will pick up Moonlight for another season. The entire cast ROCKS!!!"
198174,2,Purchased for a gift,I have owned this product for several years. I bought this one as a gift for my daughter. It works well to separate the fat when you don't have time to let it cool.
198189,2,First-rate thriller: the insider's insider scoop,"Everything I wanted to know about world-class hacking but was too much the ""idiot"" [to use hacker parlance] to pose the right and savvy questions. Bonus entertainment in cameo appearances by a John Markov - veritable Uriah Heep among reporters - who oozes slug-like across the page with every self-serving appearance. Littman is a clear-eyed researcher whose skill as a writer is matched by an uncanny ability to stay unfooled and unphased by others' shadowy agendas or hype."
198197,2,Powerline adapter works great,The unit worked flawlessly out of the box. No hassle. It connected with other powerline accessories in areas where wireless could not reach. Great product.
198291,2,Good Brush,"Great brush for a beginner. Makes very rich and thick lather. Only downside is the wooden handle. The protective coating on the wood started to peel off from the top at the very beginning. It's also developed a small crack. Other than that, great brush!"
198302,2,tweezerman shave brush,"Upon arrival the brush is much larger than I had anticipated.During the first use, I did have to pull one or two bristles off my face, but other than that - it exfoliates really well and doesn't feel cheap. The amount of bristles make the brush very wide and they are almost too firm - but I imagine the more I use it, the more comfortable it will become. All in all, if you're looking for a brush that does what it's supposed to and you aren't incredibly concerned with how fancy it is - this is it! The price it right."
198324,2,A Must Have Book For Anyone Who Play's Poker,This author has written a easy to understand guide for anyone who play's poker and want's to know how to take every legal deduction available. It help's you figure out if you are truely in a positon to take deduction's as a pro or if you are just playing for fun. Very down to earth and fun book even if it is written by a C.P.A.
198364,2,Waterbeds in Trinidad!,"I purchased Waterbeds in Trinidad! CD to replace my old Lp. I like the music on this CD because it shows yet another side to the very versatile Association. Many people associate the group with top 40-type love ballads, but they are so much more. Some of my favorites from this collection are the very-much ahead of it's time ""Kicking The Gong Around"", Carole King's ""Snow Queen"", ""Rainbow's Bent"" and ""Little Road And A Stone To Roll"". If you're a fan of Jules Alexander's songwriting, this is the CD to get. The only downside to this CD was that I purchased the Japanese import, and I really miss the informative liner notes."
198422,2,An ABSOLUTE must-read!,I can't say enough good things about this book. It is beautifully written and a complete inspiration. I feel fortunate to have the guidance presented in this book. It is fantastic.
198521,2,OMG these doctors were heartless,"You will read here the things that the German doctors did to Jews, Russians and others in the concentration camps. I don't see how these people lived knowing what they did to other humans."
198562,2,Good test prep,"I purchased an older version so that I would have an idea of how the test is set up and what all is included. I am very happy with it. For the actual test prep it would probably be better to have a more recent edition, but if one has a basic understanding of the levels of math covered then the older version is just fine."
198592,2,My Best Christmas Gift,"This book was the best Christmas gift given to me. I have read and enjoyed Ms. Crist's Xena and Gabrielle stories and the web version of this book. The published version is even better; the plot tighter, the editing well done. I enjoyed the exciting legal mystery that is the central plot of this book, and the warm love story that develops very naturally and believably between Carson and Kennedy. It was a lot of fun to read about places in Texas too. I believe Ms. Crist is getting ready to start writing the sequel and I can hardly wait to read it."
198597,2,I'm in love with Charles....,"I don't think I have ever encountered a novel with as sympathetic a secondary character as Charles. You could see why she loved him and why it was so hard to hurt him.....he had loved her his whole life. Hats off to LS for not following with convention and making him an evil character.Did anyone else feel like the ending was written with a sequel in mind? How great would that have been.....Charles comes back years later, sill in love with Emily and the fur flies. Squeeeee!"
198625,2,Imagine There's No Broadway,"If you're a fan of THE BROADWAY KIDS, you're going to love hearing them render your favorite pop songs. If you've never heard the Kids before, you might want to start on their first CD. The songs range in polish and style, but none of them lack the enthusiasm and effort that has always been a hallmark of The Broadway Kids. Enjoy!"
198663,2,Great goggles!,"Love these goggles! They are tight, keep out the water and work for the hour of swimming I do everyday. I've had other cheaper speedo goggles and like these the best. I've only had them 2 weeks though, and didn't have to replace the nose piece.Works great with the Dolphin Nu waterproof MP3 player!"
198674,2,excellent,"LOVE IT, so funny, good old fashioned humour, will entertain you for hours! I LOVE LUCY, all of them...they are BRILLIANT!!!"
198683,2,love this product,"one of the best investments made on my car. worth every penny, and install was super easy. would like to get the bluetooth and xmnav traffic as well. love the user friendly interface, though some menus may be hard to find since it has so many functions. highly recommended unit!"
198744,2,Season 2 better than Season 1,"This started a little slow, but by the third episode I was hooked. Each episode told a different story but the continuity with the characters was excellent. I wondered how it would all end, but was completely satisfied."
198759,2,Superior,"""Cornford arrived at a picture of the origins of Greek philosophy which was historically superior to that which anyone else has so far reached."" -The Classical Review (on back of 1957 edition). I strongly agree."
198913,2,Avalon references?,"First I must say that it would be hard for me to let go of this book as it is one of the most beautifully illustrated and retold Sleeping Beauty books I have had read.The authors use of Celtic mythology and in my opinion is based on Avalon & The Lady of the Lake, Vivianne. Read it and tell me what you think?Looking closly at the illustrations the Blue Faery wears the crown of the cresent moon Symbolizing a Priestess of the Goddess.A must read!!!!!! Not short of Beautiful!"
199082,2,Book review,This was a present for my 3 yr old grandson & he found it to be exciting a very readable
199096,2,Sony 8gb Micro Vault is impressive,"Hi, I have read several bad commentaries about this usb storage device on different websites and all I can say is I love mine !! It is not slow and I think anyone with half a brain would realize that even usb 2.0 h/s transfers will never be nicknamed lightning quick usb!! This tiny thing sure can hold a bunch of info and many mp3's even at 224k kbps. Like around a thousand at that high quality bitrate !! I never realized people are so impatient as to expect instant large file transfers out of any usb storage device !! For the low price you pay for one of these I think you will very content to own one of these miracles of science !!!"
199118,2,HTC Mobile Base,"Very easy to assemble, fits the table saw base very well and the wheels and foot releases work well and make this base very convenient."
199173,2,Complete overview of the field,"I am an undergraduate neuroscience major. I chose Principles Of Neural Science on my own, because I wanted a higher-level text than the course required. The textbook provides a good overview of the many different aspects of neuroscience, from synaptic transmission to perception to development. It is easy-to-read, not dense like some textbooks. I find it especially helpful to read a chapter of the text before attempting to dive into a research article. My only criticism is that it refers to material from other chapters as though it should already be learned, as though the book is meant to be read in order and not used as a reference. With 63 chapters, I am not sure this is appropriate. Nevertheless, I highly recommend this text."
199206,2,baby bottles!!,"Great-easy to use, sturdy and best yet easy to clean, but hard to find more in the store."

199329,2,Great costume - especially for the price!!,"This is a great costume. The price was really reasonable too. We have spent twice that amount on other costumes that were poorly made and not as cute. We did buy a crinoline skirt to go underneath for extra poof and we ordered saddle shoes from another store which didn't arrive in time. My daughter won the costume contest and was so excited! Sizing was pretty good. If you are on the fence as to what size to get - go bigger - not smaller, but they are pretty close."
199401,2,Coffe mugs,Good price. Arrived in excellent condition and quickly. Love the quality of Emile Henry items. You get what you pay for. Their glaze is awesome. Doesn't stain and very easy to clean. Swear by their stuff. Have used the mugs for years (blue) and decided to order more in a different color (citron). Amazon makes it so easy to find what you are looking for and a good price!
199413,2,Excellent read,"When I first got this book, I wanted to put off reading it because it's kinda long. Nothing I haven't done before, but school was going on, and I just wanted something to occupy my time. Bad idea for this book. As to the length, it flies by. I found myself on page 122 and it felt as if I'd just opened it up. The story is fun. That's not a word I generally use to describe a book I'm reading. The style is lacking compared to contemperaries such as Hugo, and there is no real ""deep thinking"" involved. It is pure escape literature, in it's finest form."
199446,2,Essential Guide,"I used this guide when looking at schools for my five year old daughter. I found the descriptions very accurate--the author really understands the essence of these schools and appreciates the intricacies of NYC schools. If you're looking for a public school in NYC, this book isn't a luxury, it's a necessity!!"
199462,2,Best CD I've Heard in a longgggggggg time,"This CD came out in 2002 and I just picked it up in late 2005 after hearing it for the first time. Not to many CD's have taken a hold of me like this one. I can remember asking my brother ""Who the hell are the guys?"" (in a good way of course) right after hearing the album from beginning to end. This is by far the best CD I've purchased in a while. Every song on the album is good. The only thing that really bummed me out is that these guys don't seem to be around anymore. What a shame with a debut album like this. If the band happens to read this, how about a follow up? You guys rock."
199485,2,very sharp.. cuts fantastically,"This is a great knife. Straight forward design.. cuts very sharp and evenly. I've used it for veggies (cucumbers, tomatoes etc.etc..) and cheeses. It's very handy because the pointy thing on the end then can be used to skewer the tomatoes or cheese slices and transport them wherever they need to go. This knife was much cheaper than other options out there and I think I'll use it alot. Recommend!"
199496,2,Chris Cooper Is Simply Fantastic!,"You've seen and read all of the great reviews for ""Breach"", consider this another one. It's an intelligent movie that takes it's time to tell a true story. The acting is nothing less than superb, but one has to single out the wonderfully nuanced performance by Chris Cooper as one of the finest in recent years. He's already won one Oscar, and with this film truly takes his place near the top of Hollywood's ""A"" list! Ryan Phillippe continues to impress, and Laura Linney gives her usual great performance. ""Breach"" is film-making at it's best!"

199606,2,Good stuff,"This is a great item. However, I found it a bit small in diameter for a set of serious cables."
199788,2,Great Value for the Price,"I purchased this computer for under $500 in the summer to replace a $1100 Dell. I love it and can't believe it was so cheap! I keep waiting for something to wrong but so far, I've been pleasantly surprised. I highly recommend it.:)"
199834,2,We love this book!,We were given this book as a gift for my daughters second birthday and she absolutely loves it. It is requested at least once a day. I will definitely check out the others (Dogs... and Pigs) for ourselves and as gifts too!
199838,2,Small Town America,River Season is a snapshot of growing up in Small Town America that keeps you captured from page 1. It is heart warming and full of the kind of teenage pranks that kept small town kids entertained in the 1970's. I thought it was better than Stand By Me and highly recommend author Jim Black's books.
199850,2,Great Book,I got this book because I am new to wedding photography. The book has great color examples and breaks down the shooting of the event from start to finish with lots of example shots. A good book for someone just starting out that needs tips and direction on wedding photography
199853,2,WOW!!,I borrowed this game from a friend and absolutely loved it. I had to buy it. this is just one of those games you have to have. Totally worth the $20.
199879,2,Refreshing,"This is an excellent light comedy that is refreshing because it is a departure form what is considered the ""stupid"" modern comedy. It is not at all a comedy that is considered asinine. I really like the stereotypes of the womanizing Democrat and the stingy Republican. I would recommend this film for anyone, no matter what the age."
199911,2,The Best Film Version of the Classic Tale....,"I, like many others, first saw this film in a high school class (12 years ago!) and have been hooked ever since. Anthony Andrews is fabulous as Percy. Why he never became a bigger star is one of the more troubling mysteries of the last century. He OWNS this role. No one can touch him! Jane Seymour and Sir Ian Mckellan give superb performances, as well. Because this film has not been widely distributed, I used to think I was the only one who counted it as a favorite, but I now know I'm not alone. It is wonderfully charming, witty, romantic and just plain fun. If more people knew about it, I'm sure it would be as widely beloved as other classic family films such as ""The Sound of Music"" and ""It's A Wonderful Life"". Yes, it really is THAT good."
199926,2,Great resource for your Mac,"I have been using the .Mac service for a little over a year. It is a great way to backup my most important files, as well as email, addresses, and a calendar so I can access it from anywhere. There are also tutorial resources for my computer that are a big help as well."
200008,2,Michael Myers Lives!,"Not the best although much more enjoyable than HALLOWEEN 2. This installment lacked the action of part 4, but it was still good. Michaels mask in this looked a bit pathetic and the way he killed people in this is like the style of Jason from FRIDAY THE 13TH movies. I liked the bit where he takes his mask off and sheds a tear, in a moment of thought. The ending is mysterious and there is also the appearence of a man dressed head to toe in black. Overall a good film which is better than part 2 & 6."
200039,2,"Really pretty, I wear them often!","These arrived faster than I expected. They are a nice shape and thickness, and were not uncomfortably heavy, something I worry about when buying earrings online.The closure has a nice, solid 'click', and I'm always sure they're secure."
200044,2,GREEEAT!,"my english is not as good as you might like, but i will give it a try.the trigger finger has become my KEY midi hardware as a trigger, im a DJ and i've been working with many other midi hardware, this one finally satisfied my needs.great response, fast, many many knobs , and...many pads :Pits a bit heavy, but for gigs, its the best you can get.y used a M-AUDIO midi keyboard, and this new one replaced my entire set.it{s a must, for drummers its a must, its not expensive, you can use it for secuences.the only problem i had it's the USB cable, it has been giving me problems on stage, thats a really BAD CON. but once repleaced, it worked fine for me.BUY, BUYi didn't give it a 5 star review, but.. the cable took off one."
200119,2,Excellent Book!,Very organized and detailed. I'm surprised all of this information can fit easily into one little book!
200121,2,Very nice set!,"This toy was an instant hit. It comes with a lot of useful, fun pieces. It is a little big for carrying to the beach with everything else that you always want to take, but it is lightweight so a nice beach bag should take care of any problems."
200130,2,Awesome product,"Fits my thick laptop with a 15.4"" screen perfectly. Even has a little pouch for the power brick. The neoprene is so stretchy that even the brick fits. Perfect for those who dont want to lug around a heavy laptop case."
200167,2,"randomness, dysfunction, and a whole lot of crazy",A fun read. The main character (who is the least self-aware of the bunch) is set as the observer which makes for a style of story telling that feels very chaotic and random but yet really works well. The artwork is great.....very frenetic but also very playful.
200178,2,a great start,"This is a great cd to for new van halen fans. You hear some of the best songs of sammy and dave and even what they are like live. The new tracks are not great, but by no means bad (exept learning to see). However, you really cannot make a ""best of"" cd for van halen. The only true essential van halen compilation would be to buy all of there cds."
200204,2,This is What Jam Bands Should Sound Like,"Firstly, I'd like to say that this would be a five star album without the annoying overdubs. However, the actual concert expands the songs into huge, power driven jams but still is focused. The band wears its influences on its sleeve: Zeppelin, Santana, Sonic Youth and yes even 70's Miles. However, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts and Mars Volta are really this great live. Unlike jam bands, the members of Mars Volta seperately and as a group know how to play. There are not endless solos that go nowhere or boring guitar wankery. The hypnotic feeling of Electric Ladyland or Bitches Brew is given a modern update. Recommended."
200236,2,MATTIMEO SON OF THE GREAT WARRIOR MATTHIAS IS KIDNAPPED BY EVIL FOX SLAGAR.,"MATTIMEO SON OF THE GREAT WARRIOR MATTHIAS IS KINDNAPPED ALONG WITH SOME OF HIS FRIENDS BY THE EVIL FOX SLAGAR. EAGER TO GET HIS SON AND THE OTHERS BACK, MATTHIAS TRACKS THE GANG ALONG WITH HIS SQUIRREL FRIEND JESS. ALTHOUGH IT'S A BIG BOOK I THINK IT'S WORTH READING"
200270,2,"Good episode, but not worth the money","It was a great show and a wonderful episode, but not quite worth $777.00. I suggest waiting for the reruns and copying it with a handheld video camera that you can get for about $200.00."
200358,2,Firestorm,"If you read ""Firestorm"" just for the description of that disastrous event, you won't be disappointed. However, be sure to finish Firestorm - it has more plot twists than a corkscrew. Great book!"
200439,2,"No Mess, No Fuss","I use this with my B&D Brew 'n Go, and it is fantastic for it's ease of cleaning. The coffeemaker I use doesn't require a filter, but with these little guys there isn't that mess in the filter. I definitely recommend this product for you."
200445,2,A fair end,"Like most TV shows, earlier seasons were much stronger, but this season will give closer to long-time fans with a neatly wrapped conclusion that spans across 7 episodes."
200497,2,Excellent CD - Would recommend this Jewel to any jazz or blues fan,"This group of musicians has a sound all their own, bluesy jazz with that funky New Orleans touch. The late Art Blakey is acknowledged as one of the best modern jazz drummers. With his beat comes also David ""Fathead"" Newman on sax and Dr John on piano with an incredible laid back sound laced with New Orleans voodoo heritage. Shoo Fly is worth the price of admission alone. This is a Must Have Musical Gem!"
200622,2,A Disturbing And Important Book,"We will all have to deal with sickness and death in all of our lives. I have often found myself trying without success to imagine Kristan Ryan and her dealings with ms, John Penn fighting 2 battles at once - cancer and AIDs, Hortensia Anderson and a life on a dialysis machine. All because of a book I bought on the suggestion of a friend with fibromyalgia. There are many lessons to be learned from STORIES - I have had the privilege of a life not yet touched with sickness. But all of the poets and writers in STORIES by disclosing theirs, humbles me. STORIES is not at all preachy - the purpose seems simply to wake us up and make us aware. This, it does without technical jargon nor self-pity. STORIES is a heart-wrenching and truly elegant book."
200624,2,Lovett or leave it!,"Watching Lyle and his Large Band live in concert is an unforgettable experience! This DVD captures the best of the ""best of"" Lyle Lovett. The performance is flawless, and this DVD brings the concert directly to you. This is a must buy for any Lyle Lovett fan!"
200765,2,Power of Love,"This book is a beautiful tribute to a very special dog and, more importantly, a touching lesson in the value of looking beyond the surface before passing judgement. It packs a big punch into a few words (the reviewers who are critical of the book's length have missed the point entirely). If the author had passed up the stinky dog next door, he would have missed out on the relationship of a lifetime. I've read the book a few times now and the lesson goes deeper with each read."
200783,2,Great book for new writers,I have the audiobook version of this book. I wanted to get the print version so that I could make notes and read it again. This is a good book for those who want to begin writing anything. It was also interesting to get insights into how Stephen King became a great writer. He is very candid about his parts of his life both good and bad. If you're interested in writing or want to know how Stephen King approaches the craft read this book.
200834,2,Good Review,Excellent Product. Could have better instructions as the parts were not lettered according to the instructions.
200841,2,Great Read,A must read for all people starting on a bread making mission. Very informative and easy read. Great to see examples of bakeries around the US.
200858,2,enjoyment,Reading this book put me right in the Adirondacks with the people. I have visited the area and felt I was again visiting a beautiful area of our Country. This author brings words to life.
200864,2,Great Memories,"I'm so glad that Amazon had this available. My husband loves this movie, so I bought it for his birthday. It was in great shape, and it's a good show. Thanks again!"
200865,2,"My God is first, my friends are second and I am third","This was the title of the marvelous book that Gayle Sawyers wrote. It is the inspiration for Brian's Song. I promise you that when Gayle Sayers(Billie Dee Williams) says, ""I love Brian Piccollo, and I want you all to love him too"", you too will cry. The tears are hitting me now just thinking about it."
200972,2,Great profile of Chicago artists like Carl Weathersby,"The Chicago Music Scene resonates with a broad range of sounds and styles. Electrified Blues, Hip Jazz, Hot Latin and Lively Irish music are all frequencies coloring the Windy City's bandwidth. Tune in to the scene with this CD featuring tracks from some of Chicago's most treasured artists and use the included ""Club Locator Map"" to navigate your way through the night life. This sampler features performances by Carl Weathersby, Koko Taylor, and Junior Wells. All this great music plus a booklet with a guided tour of these Chicago clubs:- B.L.U.E.S ETC- BUDDY GUYS- CHIEF O'NEALS- FADO- THE GREEN MILL- HOTHOUSE- THE IRISH OAK- JAZZ SHOWCASE- MAMBO CUBAN CUISINE- NACIONAL 27- ROSA'S- ZAFIRE"
200974,2,Does the job,"I've always had a fear of my guitar hitting the floor because the strap came loose. No more worries now. Pretty much no instructions, but was easy to figure out with a quick search on You-Tube."
201138,2,One of my top ten of a lifetime books,"I have read this book twice. First as a teen and the next time as an adult. To me, it's up there with Poison Wood Bible, and A Fine Balance. A life-changer/top ten/must read. I am excited it's on Kindle as I now live in the Caribbean and books can be difficult to find, I can't wait to purchase it, re-read it and recommend it all over again. This book is a historical fiction, and a great way to introduce some of the realities and heartbreaks our First Nations people faced."
201193,2,Interesting read,"I, too, remember the Bette Davis/Charles Boyer film fondly and was glad to find this novel so many years later. I have to agree with others that the second half of the book lacks the compelling interest of the first; Rachel Field was writing about her own family in the latter, and she would naturally be just as interested in it as she was Henriette's life in Paris. I enjoyed the look at New York in the mid-nineteenth century, but the second half of the book just wasn't as compelling. If it had been, I would have given this one five stars. Still, anyone who enjoys historical fiction laced with a bit of romance (not much romance, and somewhat old-fashioned, but sweet) will find much to appreciate in this book."
201198,2,"Outstanding ""Deap-Water"" Navy!!!","Just finished a re-read of Pat Johnston's novel ""Boatswain's Mate"" and, once again, I re-lived my navy career with his character ""Jake""! Some of the locations ""Jake"" served, I was there at the same time, and it almost seems I knew him! This is an outstanding book for any one ex-navy, or any one intrested is what navy life is really like. Terrific reading!!!Harry A.Moore, Aviatiom Boatswain's Mate, U.S.N."
201211,2,A wonderful collection of Cat Stories,"Even though I am not a Sci Fi person per se, I do love cats (I have 4!!). I thought I would give this book a try, and I am very glad that I did. This book is a wonderful collection of stories, all involving cats of course, in a wealth of different genres. Some were adventure, some were 'love stories', some straight comedy in a variety of manners. I truly enjoyed reading this book, and plan to read books II through IV!"
201356,2,great bandsaw,"I searched a long time trying to make up my mind on which bandsaw to purchase to replace my aging 12"" craftsman. It came down to the Jet and the Grizzly. I went with the Grizzly becase of budget restraints and I am not sorry that I did. I have only been using it for about a month and so far I think it is a great machine. I used the old craftsman for 20 plus years and now I see what I have missed. There is little to no vibration, the cuts are stright and the cut off pieces are fairly smooth. I am using a 3/16"" blade as I do fime detailed work. I have not done any resawing as of yet Bu I am sure there will be no problems.I was a little leary of having it shipped rather than going to a retail store, but the saw arrived in excellent condition and a lot sooner than I had expected. I would have no problems recommending this saw to anyone."
201368,2,Gorgeous gold images,"This is by far the most beautiful deck I own with gorgeous gold images. The scenes are mesmeriszing. I do wish there was a book to explain the symbolism behind each card. But alas, I will have to rely on intuition and outside research."
201393,2,Interesting book!,"Good old-school, vintage, ""Mad-Men"" type cookbook and good price for all you get inside - would probably buy again as a gift again!!!"
201498,2,The New Oxford American Dictionary,I love the new book it is a some hi hi love it's sickly cool I THINK ITS A GREAT DICTIONARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
201541,2,Treadway's genius shines through,"John Treadway has been the most authoratative, brilliant and generally outstanding scholar of Balkan history in recent years, and this is the wonderful book that made his well deserved reputation. You simply cannot understand theBalkans without reading this magnificent book."
201551,2,Triumph the insult comic dog,"This DVD is childish, in poor taste, and I love it. Triumph the insult comic dog is hilarious. From picking on American Idol contestants to assuring Star Wars neirds they will never lose their virginity this is a favorite in my household."
201605,2,Works great for podcasting,"I bought it to make my voice sound better during podcasting and it works great for that. I now sound very professional and clear. Before I was just using the mic built inside my Mac laptop. Which gave me all the background noise in the room. This mic just gets my voice. You can't even hear my fish tank filter that sits about 4 feet away.The only problem I have with this mic is that the cord input is poorly designed. I spent hours online trying to troubleshoot how my Mac couldn't recognize the mic when it was plugged in. Only to realize later that the cord was plugged in upside down. Why would you design a plug that could still turn the light on and plug in upside down? That's poor engineering to say the least. So if you've having trouble with the mic not recognizing, you probably have the input into the mic turned the wrong way. As soon as I did that it worked fine."
201705,2,Kindle Version on DX,"Formatting: I can give it about a 3.7 here. Its kind of broken up and it can be hard to tell when a key note is about the previous recipe or the following one. The main reason to knock one star is there is no table of contents. The remedy is simple in this case. Simply go and bookmark the main headings for each area. On the next page after you will find hyper-linked entries for the entire section. It takes less than 3 minutes (also a one-time effort) and it works fine for me and thus isn't a total SNAFU.Content: I wouldn't call this a hardcore Chinese food cookbook. As other reviewers have stated, this is the kind of fare you might find at a local Americanized Chinese food joint. That's what I wanted so the content gets 5 stars.Overall Value: I give it a 4.4 stars for the current price and a solid 5 for anyone who just wants a primer on ingredients and combinations that are typical plus cooking methods with a wok."
201760,2,Interesting,"Brilliant portrayal of Margret Thatcher. However, too much of the movie was spent depicting her later years as she suffers from mental decline and not enough telling us the story of her as Prime Minister. What's the point of dwelling on her as an elderly senile shell of her former self? Too bad, it could of been a wonderful movie, and about half of it is. The other half is simply pathetic.I give it 4 stars for the remarkable acting performance."
201763,2,Great performance!,"Only an actress of Meryl Streep's genius could make a total SKANK ...""BUTCHER THATCHER""...SEEM HUMAN. Any role Meryl Streep commits to playing is elevated by her skill."
201780,2,Definitely worth it,"I bought this product initially as a gift, and the first couple I bought were great... I think I've purchased 12 total... 3 of the units had some difficulty in holding a charge or turning on...BUT... when I called customer service, they were fantastic, and they sent replacement units that work fabulous. They are perfect for grandparents... etc..I even kept one for myself. Definitely worth the $$$!!!"
201800,2,An excellent read,"The narrative is amazing in this book. I especially love Peekay as a small boy. Courtenay describes such big ideas in terms that really sound like refelections of a child. They are hilarious and heartbreaking at the same time, and make you love this small boy who becomes an admirable young man. I can't stop thinking about this book."
201811,2,The funniest show ever returns with an even better DVD set.,"I have recently claimed that Family Guy, Vol.1 was the funniest DVD collection ever. However, I must admit that I was wrong. Family Guy, Vol. 2 is the funniest. This DVD Box set beats Vol. 1 in almost every way possible. There's funnier episodes, better commentaries, and better/more special features. We also get the never-before aired episode ""When You Wish Upon A Weinstein"" (Well, it was never-before aired when this set came out. Since then, I believe that Cartoon Network/Adult Swim aired it in November).If you're reading this and contemplating buying this box set, then read no further. Just buy this today."
201814,2,Plain awesome,"Family guy season 3 is just plain awesome. It is a bit more controversial than the first 2 seasons so i wouldnt recommend young children watching it, but it has to be one of the best if not the best animated cartoon of all time. definetly rivals teh simpsons!"
201858,2,great voice!,"OK, where has Daniel Rodriguez been hiding all this time? We just bought ""The Spirit of America"" and he has an absolutely marvelous voice. Reminds me so much of Mario Lanza, who I feel was the greatest tenor of his time. I am anxious to download other albums of his - I have to hear more. joyce from Texas"
201868,2,"Quiet ,dimmed,and smoke filled","barroom would set the atmosphere of this album. Very dynamic, and well balanced recording. From the upbeat, driving ""Blues For The West Side"", to John Coltrane's ""Equinox"", there is a taste for everyone here. Ronnie is absolutely brilliant, and this recording shows his honesty and sensitivity to the blues. Not out to emulate, he creates his own voice, and this is a great starter for new fans as well.Also recommend:""Blues Guitar Virtuoso Live In Europe"""
201873,2,Great movie!,"Great movie! My wife surprised me by giving several of my favorite movies on DVD. Quick service, made it just in time for Christmas."
201943,2,great!,great item to have for beginners for archery! best friend against blister and protects your fingers. affordable and reliable for all archers.
201973,2,Panasonic KX-TCA60,"A super great value for the money, if you want a top of the line bells and whistles unit then you should pick something else. I love it for the value and ease of use just plug it in and that's it, not batteries and the cord is very long which make it nice to use as well."
201980,2,"good product, good value","Comfortable, has long enough cord (which many headsets don't), and a good value for the money. Bought two, and glad I did, since headsets don't last as long as the phones."
201996,2,corded headset,A good light product. Versatile. Clear. Down fall: The head set does not adjust to an exact comfort for me (almost a little big).
202011,2,Egyptian Cotton Sheets,"Very nice quality sheets. Very soft, seem to get softer the more you wash them. Over all, we are pleased with the purchase."
202028,2,I love this thing,I bought this specifically to nail a kitchen soffit in areas where my hammer could not fit. It worked beautifully for this task and I ended up using it all day for various things. Its pneumatic action was slightly startling at first then became just plain fun.
202069,2,Great Product,"The Coolaroo shade cloth in wheat is an excellent product. It is easy to cut and hem to any desired shape or size. I also have a Coolaroo easy up I purchased years ago in the wheat color and I can confirm that the cloth is durable, reliable and still looks great after years of wear.I recently purchased the Coolaroo shade cloth in wheat in the hopes that I could make an awning to shade the back of a home. After constructing a wood frame, I hemmed the unfinished edges and put in gromments.I took the advice from a previous review and I used a soldering tool to make the holes for the gromments. This prevents the fabric from ripping away from the gromment so easily. (Thank you! Great idea!)I installed hooks to each side of my awning frame and voila!"
202085,2,Excellent garden tool,"The half-moon edger is an excellent addition to my garden tools. It's made of long lasting materials. It allows me to remain upright when I'm using it with the extension handle, which can also be used with other WOLF products. It works on odd shaped garden plots."
202137,2,Excellent Tool,"This is a great product to have in anyone's tool collection. And to have it's own storage case is great for keeping the level in good condition. This has been so handy so many times doing projects around our home, I have lost count. My father and father-in-law have both borrowed this level from us. Now that says something."
202175,2,not caldwells best,"The story comes along in a time when historical mysteries are quite popular. It, therefore, did not come across as a particularly creative subject, nor inventive. It is another story of students who are out to discover historical truths that have been hidden from the world. I did not find the plot to be engaging, nor did I find any surprising twists to keep my interest. The story, however, is well written. It simply needs more inventive ideas and lots more surprises!"
202226,2,I LOVE THESE CASES!!!!,"these cases are amazing!! i love them!! if i ever need to replace one of my dvds i always buy Memorex DVD Storage Cases. there the next best thing, i think to the ones that come orignal with my store bought dvds.thanks Memorex!!"
202272,2,Artworks Elementary Education Book,"The book was in the condition in was described in. There was a little bit more highlighting then I was expecting, but it's not a big deal. The price was great! My school bookstore wanted over twice what I paid for it here."
202303,2,Great Story,"This was a good book that I definately enjoyed reading. I thought it started off a little slow and got more interesting as the story progressed. I think a map of the area would have been a good addition to the book because it seemed to assume you are familiar with the layout of the area and routes.I guess I expected a story about some random guy who had a rock fall on him, cut his arm, and survived. I didn't know he was such an experienced adventurer living an action packed lifestyle. It would definately be a great read if you have ever done any of the outdoor activities that he talks about in his flashbacks/memories because it will help you relate to how much Aron had accomplished prior to this incident.It definately makes me double check my plans and gear when heading out on a trip because this proves that you never know what can happen. Glad I read the book before I watched the movie because the movie was terrible!"
202305,2,A must have for your trip-hop collection!,I agree with Jen Boyles (URB Magazine) review of this CD. Laura Derby's vocals pushes Cirrus into the uper level of great trip-hop/electronica groups. Great CD!!
202337,2,Assault Girls,"The film is excellent, especially the visuals, but it's just barely over an hour long. And there are know special features on the DVD which I usually enjoy. In my opinion it is to short and you don't get to know the characters as you should. I do recommend it thought. Good action and nice looking ladies."
202362,2,Very Enjoyable...,"I enjoyed this documentary thoroughly. I had originally bought it for it's Bright Eyes/Cursive content, although now i've started to listen to these other great groups out of Saddle Creek. It covers a wide range of SC's groups and goes into great depth into the workings and histories of the groups. I would liked to have had each groups ""section"" be a little longer, but none the less, it was very enjoyable!"
202405,2,One of the best C64 games.,"I only ever-played this game on the Commodore 64 and for an 8-bit machine the graphics and sounds were surprisingly very good. It was a bit like Sabotuer in a way as you would control your little secret agent guy as he ran around in a massive industrial complex going up and down elevators, doing huge somersaults and dodging the evil robots while trying to solve a cryptic puzzle on a huge musical chess board and searching for clues.The baddie, who I never once actually saw during the game, was the outrageously named Elvin Atombender. Every now and again he was start talking to you or ordering his robots to zap you. It was mental. And the funniest part was definitely when you fell down an airshaft and the character would do that hilarious scream.I never actually finished the game as it was just too difficult (it really did live up to it's name) but it's still a cool game and recommended if you ever come across it."
202433,2,GREAT SET,"I think that this is a great collection of urban films...one of the best I've seen so far. My particular favorites are THE MURDER MEN and BANG, both by the hot and stylish up and coming film maker King Jeff. The dialogue is great in both film and the wit is there. Both are very serious stories with great acting and directing. BANG has a great plot and one of the coolest sound tracks(by King Jeff, El Timo and Gorio) I've ever heard. Great bonus footage for both films as well. The other films are entertaining as well. Great collection."
202452,2,Everyone will want to read it,"My 3 year old cousin has this book and brought it to my grandmother's house while my family was visting. This book is hilarious. I couldn't stop laughing when my aunt read it out loud at the table (after dinner) My sisters found this book funny but gross, and my bother seemed to think that the illistrsions were very inappropriate for young children. My oldest brother got a kick out of the pictures of animal poop. Overall, this book is very amuseing for adults and older kids, and something the whole family will be laughing over."

202578,2,"This is rock, get this damn cd.","It's about time another nu-metal band kicks mucho @$$. After many lame and linear bands coming out, I was kind of skeptical in buying this latest addition, SKRAPE. Well, to say the least: they are great, and every song is non-stop rock. The singer sounds a lot like fingereleven's singer, which is a good thing. Then, unexpectedly, a menacing scream will emerge from him. Great singer. The rest of the band is also good, and proves that you don't need to be too unique to have your own style. They sound like their own band, and are very tight together. and you can't disregard that special cheap price. so, make sure to pick up this cd."
202690,2,great rock and roll,If you are looking for a great cd look no loonger you have found it and no they do not sound like thin lizzy they have there own sound that is fantastic
202714,2,serves its purpose,"After reading other reviews, poeple either hate it or love it. I went with this because it seemed to do the job and it absolutely did. I also bought one for my father. It is true the display is hard to read at an angle and in the dark. The placement of the plug is inconvenient. A small whip cord or (1' power cord) would solve that. The learning curve is small after following the directions and all the features are worth the money. TIP: if your device has been running and it estimates your monthly cost is $350... you must also let it calculate the hours at night or when its not running to add in when its not using power. That way the average may be accurate. ($57/ month). Was an electric heater. Also let it get about 2-3 days of measurements for some accuret #s."
202716,2,Works,I'm still not exactly sure how it works but it does. I used it with the Arm and Hammer 'Clean Burst' laundry soap. It removed tarnish from all the cracks and crevices that would have been very hard to manually polish...
202734,2,The Definitive DBZ Release,"We all know the remastered sets were a mistake, but thankfully, FUNimation's redeemed themselves with these. There's not really much else you can say about these sets. I look forward to November 10th!"
202779,2,"Great Book, Must Have",I have yet to come across a topic this book doesnt cover. If you use FrontPage 2000 you must have this book.
202828,2,very good,"to the honest truth this is a good album, rhymes; great, beats; great, production; excellent. the only downfalls of this album is the one or 2 love songs (Chillin Wit Ma Bitch, Get Loose) and him callin himself king of the south. hes only been around barely for 3 years. if anything i consider Trick Daddy or Luda to be kings, Trick's been around 6 - 9 years and luda been here since 1999. but besides that great album. this lives up to its mainstream success. one of the few that are actually good. ex. Red Light District, The Documentary, Street's Disciple, College Drop Out."
202831,2,ARE YOU READY YET?,"Unbelieveable... Play this Lp in an enclosed room at full volume (as far as you can go) on a decent turntable set up with a tube amp. You will never experience music like this again and you will question ""just how powerful is heroin?"" Play the Lp 100 times and you will notice something different each and every time."
202837,2,Paradigm Shifting,"New Testament scholars are all too ready to admit that John's Gospel shows a preexistent Christology (some even admit it of Paul's letters) but not too many are willing to admit the same of the Synoptic Gospels. If someone does see preexistence in the Synoptics then they're generally accused of reading later Christian theology into the texts or of reading them through Johannine lenses. Drawing from ancient Jewish literature as well as the New Testament, Simon Gathercole mounts a persuasive exegetical argument for preexistence in the Synoptic Gospels based on Jesus' ""I have come"" statements. This important volume has significant implications for modern discussions on ancient Christology."
202955,2,Told in the simple things,"More and more I appreciate the poem that brings poetry down to the familiar, even the mundane. A cup of coffee and a cigarette, or the way leaves look just before a storm. Billy Collins is a master of this kind of simplicity. He grounds you firmly in the world, and then lets the truth of it open out before you. Accessible though never simplistic, direct and dryly funny, Collins is a gem. Read him."
202991,2,Art Marketing 101,"This guide to art marketing is especially usefull for the individual artist. Concise, precise, very user freindly with plenty of usable advice on getting into the marketplace and being a success."
203178,2,Almost missed out because of whiny reviews.,"Love this new toy. I almost didn't bother with one because of all the whiny reviews on here. Luckily my wife got me one for my birthday. I can see how if someone wasn't careful they could break it, opening and closing it. And yes, it does spatter some, but just wipe it up when you're done. The coffee was plenty hot and plenty strong for me, and I like it strong. It's great because I can make just one quick cup of good coffee."
203204,2,Green lantern costume,"Compared to other costumes with the built in muscles, this one is more plan. There are no extras such as capes, mask, etc. The size runs large and long, so if your child is little, I would recommend going down a size. Thin material, but overall seems to stand up to everyday wearing, which is the case at our house with a 4 year old."
203328,2,Breathtaking. That's all I can say.,"For years I monitered the progress of this band. I watched as they grew and changed. They never failed to amaze me. I always wondered what it would be like to hear a grindcore band with true musical and artistic understanding...a band that could play tightly with structure while still capturing the madness of the brand. Jerome's Dream turned out being that band. The ultimate fusion of free jazz, avant-garde and grindcore. This double disc set translates the bands journey. Their rise and fall. Awesome unreleased tracks that prior to this album were very hard to find. I couldn't be more happy with this release. Great idea. Great band. A must have. Five stars hand down. Bravo my friends. Bravo."
203348,2,MUST HAVE,"I can sum this up easily, this is a MUST HAVE for any true alias or Jenn fan,it gives the truth, great accurate summerys of every show, a mini biography on each character, behind the scens, like the music, and story boards, and how JJ came up with the idea, oh, and a vary long and detailed intro about the show, and the relationship between the characters. Not to mention all the great pic's! you must get this!!!!!"
203350,2,Excellent book about WWII heroes,"Excellent story about the brave men who fought for our freedoms. All Americans who appreciate freedom, need to read this book to understand the cost of freedom.The book is written in a style, which is easy to read. Ambrose goess into great depth to understand the nature of these men and their willingness to deny self for the war effort. I haven't seen the HBO miniseries, but this has inspired me to do such. I especiaaly liked the last chapter, when he gave updates on the men post-war"
203358,2,Window into the souls of the survivors,"As a grandchild of one of the men who fought in E Company and survived I must say this is the most fascinating account of my grandfather's experiences that I have ever read. Also I was glad that the author reflected the respect shown to Lt. Winters and the scorn shown to Capt. Sobel by both my grandfather and most of the other members of the company. I loved this book because it explains things to generations that have never experienced war, yet still has the opinions of the men who fought the war. Of all the books on the soldier's experience in WWII that I've read, I think this one is the best."
203410,2,"good, but not great","It was a good enough book, but the best parts are in the introduction and the first chapter. The other parts had some nice stuff, but I found myself either skimming or skipping whole pages! I would recommend the free introduction (available right here on amazon) to see how you like it, bu t be warned: the introduction is the best part!"
203428,2,Nice game but...,"This is a funny nice game but my son could not play it for Christmas due to the bad service that Amazon gave me, they just charged my credit card but did not send this and another items that I bought from them; I had to send several emails to get them; Really bad customer service Amazon."
203452,2,A Complete Track Listing,"Given the truncated (and slightly misspelled) track listing presented above, I thought I'd try and offer a more complete version:1. I've Heard That Song Before2. I Don't Want to Walk Without You3. I'll Walk Alone4. It's Been a Long, Long Time5. Saturday Night (Is the Loneliest Night of the Week)6. Five Minutes More (Give Me)7. Things We Did Last Summer, The8.

203469,2,Bigg Hits!!,"I recommend this c.d. to anyone who is a real rap fan! Not the fake, commercialized rap that dominates the air nowadays, but the truly thugged-out fans who recognize the real stuff. I have been listening to Raw & Rugged since it's debut in Oct. and it never gets old. All of the songs hit hard, so if you're a bass-head you need to cop this! Bigg Grille Recordz might have what it takes to be the next BIGG thing in the rap game. Their whole roster is tight and their lyrics are for real!! Good job Bigg Grille!"
203487,2,no title,"This is a long poem, some 45 pages, and the first thing I ever read by Milton. And it was actually pretty good! No wonder Milton is considered great. I felt as if I were reading one of the great Greek tragedies upon which this was surely modeled. It recreates in blank verse the story of Samson and Delilah and how Samson brought down the pillars of the public arena and destroyed all the Philistines. I had not thought of that Biblical story in a long time. Milton makes it seem very real, makes the people seem alive. Even Delilah comes across as a sympathic character who had rational reasons for betraying Samson. What the real story was about his strength being in his hair I've love to know. I'm sure these were real people and there is some basis in fact. I enjoyed it."
203495,2,"good for indoor ""camping""","I got this for my 13 year old son for an overnight with friends. I'm not sure it would be warm enough for real camping but it was perfect for the place they stayed. He had some trouble getting it rolled back up and we couldn't get it zipped back in the bag no matter what we tried, but it does have a nice strap to hold it rolled up if you can't get it back in the bag"
203545,2,Best thing I ever spent my money on,"I tried the Braun 5270 before I tried this one and it was horrendous. But since I hate shaving I decided to give epilating one more try and bought the Norelco HP6492. And its awesome. The first time it stung a little but you get used to it very quickly, although some spots are always super sensitive (behind the knees). The skin cooler def. helped but the problem with it was it cooled down way to fast. Make sure you pull your skin taut it makes the whole process much easier. It took me 2-3 times of epilating until my legs were really perfectly hairless they way I wanted them. The hair def. grows back much lighter and finer. I'd also suggest regularly exfoliating to prevent ingrowns. Great great buy."
203684,2,Fun,My Grandchildren loved it and so did I. It was a great story with a wonderful ending.I recommend this video.
203685,2,Wonderful,The name interpretations in this book are fascinating; I particularly enjoy the Hebrew translations. This book led me to learn more about the meanings of the Hebrew letters. There is great wisdom and truth here. This is the best name reference book I have come across. You won't be disappointed with this purchase!
203700,2,KNOWING IS OK,"FIRST I FOUND IT MORE SCI FI THAN SPIRITUAL. HOW? WELL FIRST OFF SINCE WHEN IS GOD AN ALIEN BEING WHO COMES IN SPACE SHIPS AND TALKS TO KIDS IN WHISPERS?I SAW AT THE END HOW SOMEONE COULD GO SCREAMING OMG ITS THE GARDEN OF EDEN WITH KIDDIES.BASICALLY THE EARTH IS GONNA GO BOOM.AND ALIEN RACE THAT IS KINDER AND GENTLER THAN WE ARE DECIDES TO GIVE US A SECOND CHANCE.UM WHERE DOES GOD COME UP? HE DOESN'T.....

BUT HUMANS ARE NOT KNOWN TO BE NICE.I LOVED THE MOVIE AND IM NOT A FAN OF CAGE! I AM COMING AROUND NOW THAT HE DID THE MOLE ON G FORCE .BRING ON THE HATE MAIL I KNOW ITS COMING BUT IF YOU ARE SO INSECURE YOU HAVE TO FIND GOD IN EVERYTHING THAT HAS TO DO WITH ALIENS GET OVER IT"
203715,2,Good bye for the price,"I personally didn't need this many knives, in particular the steak knives, but the whole set is cheaper than smaller sets of the same brand so why not. In general this set is an excellent buy and I use it all the time. ..."
203775,2,Traveling Down Nostalgia Lane,"As a little girl in the 1950s, I dreamed of becoming another Esther Williams. What fun it was to watch all five of these Esther Williams classics and travel down Nostalgia Lane! Not only were the movies great, but the special features were also quite interesting. One in particular was an interview with Esther Williams in which she told many behind-the-scenes stories of what it was like to be a star at MGM.This set of five films put onto DVDs was definitely worth every penny. It is a quality purchase."
203794,2,Brilliant!,"Finally a documentary that demonstrates how Old World social networking has played a crucial part in global economics, far longer than we thought. Far before Google was a thought, She's done it HER way using an intuitive combination of social skills. For 60 years,The Queen has managed to ensure Great Britain and all its Commonwealths remain on our economic radar as well as securing a warm place in our hearts. This successful combination of hard work, exposure, remaining informed, served with a side-dish of wisdom & neutrality have helped several Prime Ministers, Parliament, UK and the world to maintain unity, peace, and spur economic development. Her gifts just keep giving. Fascinating. Waiting patiently for episode II."
203800,2,A better RC than most,"My 4 yr old grandson had played with the same RC and always loved it. I bought it for him to use in ""puddles"" but we have not taken it outside to puddles since it states it must be dried after use...not so easy for a 4 yr old! It is ""tougher"" than other RCs than I have bought."
203813,2,Gourmet made simple,"Wow, these recipes are simple to understand. I'm no gourmet cook and they walked me through the steps in a practical way. I particularly loved the salmon with apricots...the plank took a plain old standard and made it new!"
203932,2,Great Walk Away the Pounds Workout,This is a great Walk Away the Pounds Workout if you feel like you are just past the 3 miler. Leslie does tend to chat too much and her corny jokes are really annoying after the 10th time. After completing the workout a few times I now pop the DVD into my laptop and walk while watching TV.
203976,2,Good,"This is a good album from Australian Band, ""The Whitlams"". The singles ""Thank You (For Loving Me At My Worst)"" and ""Chunky, Chunky Air Guitar"" are good songs. ""Music Fan from Australia"" dosen't know what he/she is talking about."
204015,2,Kingston 4 GB Flash Card (SD6/4 GB),"Great product at super price. Have used Kingston products before with always good results, but not with this much storage capacity. This card is for a 8.1 mp camera and can store close to 2000 high quality pictures. Has performed flawlessly."
204079,2,Pure Poetic Pleasure!,The first time I picked up this book at a bookstore and started perusing the pages; it was love at first sight. Needless to say I bought it without any ado and devoured the book in no time. Since then I revisit the book whenever I'm in the mood for sheer bliss.Seth brings to poetry a simple charm hitherto not seen. His outstanding wit and intelligence make for compelling reading. 'The Golden Gate' is unique in it's sensitive portrayal of a myriad moods without being overtly judgmental. If not for it's philosophy this book is worth a ton for the sheer pleasure it's sonnets provide.
204121,2,Brutal and entertaining!,"Saga mostly concentrating on an elite band of Viking warriors known as the JomsVikings. Packed with blood and gore from beginning to end, even human sacrifices to gain favor from the Gods in battle!"
204144,2,Best & Largest Car Mirror we could find!,"This mirror is so easy to install, works in ANY vehicle - I have used it in 5 different vehicles. The mirror is very large and this makes it easy to see your little one in the back seat. The remote is a great feature so you can turn the mirror and lights on or off at any time. I first purchased a smaller mirror with the suction cup attachment and it wouldn't stick at all to the window. My daughter also loves it and waits for us to turn it on when in her car seat. She is 3 months old.I highly reccommend this product it is well worth the price."
204159,2,Sort of a life changing type of book...,"This book is a gamer changer. If you're a filmmaker or a film lover or just a conscious, alive human being you will find this book deeply, deeply profound, moving, stimulating, exciting and inspiring in many different ways. One of the most important books I have ever read. Period. Buy it. You won't be disappointed."
204177,2,"wonderful, trippy porn music","except for some vocal failures, an album with wonderful sounds and textures."
204200,2,Good Read,"Aside from learning so much of the Afghanistan people's culture in the 1950's, the book is a well writtten, thoughtful story. My book club enjoyed it. Lack of dialogue tags is a little distracting."
204328,2,Superman TV Episodes,"People old enough to remember George Reeves as Superman in the 1950s and 1960s will enjoy seeing these Superman shows once again. Although the story lines seem childish to an adult, the shows survive as happy memories from our younger days, as Lois Lane, Jimmy Olson and others are rescued in the nick of time by Superman, with the bad guys' bullets bouncing off his chest. The extra features that are included are noteworthy, with modern-day interviews of Lois (Noel Neill) and Jimmy (Jack Larson), and explanations of the show's special effects. Go ahead and buy it -- for fun!"
204329,2,I couldn't do without this capacitor after upgrading my car.,"Sometimes, you know, you just got to pump the sound and drop the bass. When that song kicks on things can get really loud, and I've been dumb enough in the past to fry a few systems. I was finally able to save up some money and get this capacitor and not only does it prevent those little accidents but it looks great too. Chrome plated with blue LED fits perfectly with my system's look. The Lanzar logo looks pretty sick too."
204342,2,Larger than I had anticipated.,"I've seen the medium and small versions at the pet shop and figured this would be just a small step above those (since the difference in those are about tripple); this thing is gigantic! It works well for a hideaway for playtime in a playpen, but it wouldn't fit in your average habitat by any means...Bruce and Selina (Batman and Catwoman; our 4 month old guinea pigs) love to hide in it, and it makes it more fun for the kids being able to see them both snuggle under it (versus not being able to see them in their igloo in their normal home)If you have the space I highly recommend this item! If you don't have the space, I'd recommend the medium."
204363,2,Grouped greatness,"The first book in an outstanding anthology series. Each short novel of this volume is worth the price of the book, and you get them all.If you like any of the authors here, this is a MUST own."
204391,2,Save those little tanks,"Bought this for my table top heater. Normally a 1 gallon tank would last 2-3 hours, which is fine for a night event but after 5-10 days $$$ adds up. Now I can hook my backup propane tank on my grill and heat away all night long without any worries. This think pays for itself in a matter of days. Now I just wish I could use it more often here in AZ. P.S. I regret paying for upgraded shipping since I found out that the distribution warehouse is local."
204393,2,Anything is possible if you really want it...!,"This film teach us through Christy Brown`s life experience ,performed brilliantly by Daniel-Day Lewis,that there are no excuses to reach happiness ..that being poor or handycapped are not the real obstacles but mediocrity.This kind of film accomplish the real purpose of making movies as an art form.Luis Ibarra"

204414,2,BUY IT.... BUY IT.... BUY IT,"This is a band nobody has heard. Too bad. Unbelievable lyrics and music. If you want to hear a love song check out ""Rocked in the Arms"". Unbelievable feelings of real people put to music! Because this band is not a big seller this disc may not be easily available. Do yourself a favor and get it however you can."
204415,2,Chet,"I was very happy with this cd. I have another Christmas album from Chet that I just love and play over and over, so I'm glad I can now switch cd's to hear more from Chet! Would buy from this seller again."
204459,2,Hmmmmm....,"This book is like any other books I've read, not bad. The plot of this book is interesting though. It starts how how all these kids get kidnapped, and this man with a disease called XP tries to find them. Then he uncovers this huge secret that went on a few years back at this place called Fort Wyvern, before it closed down after a tragic accident. I give this book four stars because it deserves it."
204546,2,Overalls,"This item is everything it is advertised to be. It is strong, sturdy and wearable. I will purchase more since we are remodeling a house at present."
204551,2,a wonderful gift,"I find that i reach out for this book from time to time when i would like to be reminded how to stay in the moment, and when I am lookign for inspiration. It never lets me down. It is presented in a very practical easy to understand way, which is comforting because there are books that are so esoteric or very vague that u end up feeling that u really got more confused.There are a lot of book s that talk about staying in the presesnt. For me, this book helps me to appreciate that and also see how and why i get caught up. Overall, i would recommend this to anybody and would give it as a gift. It truly is a gift."
204624,2,great buy!,"Great buy, looks exactly as in the picture. Be aware that it is VERY short. I'm only 5 feet tall and the small barely covers my rear. Other than that it is very cute, affordable and the shipping was very prompt."
204627,2,"interesting, will capture your attention, want to learn?","story of vision, perseverence, hard work and belief. howard's idea was pioneering. learn how he thought of growing a chain of high end stores. great read. you will appreciate your Fourbucks coffee even more after diggin these pages."
204633,2,Let's Have It on DVD Please,"I saw this movie many years ago on late night TV and it made an indelible impression. Later tracked down the book by former actor, Tom Tryon. A fine piece of atmospheric rural horror. Creepy as hell, with some great unsentimental twists. Director Robert Mulligan served the story well. Love to compare my memory with an up to date viewing. Let's have it on DVD one day soon please. I'm afraid VHS is a sunset (or sundown) technology at our place."
204634,2,the other,"This is by far one of the greatest movies I have ever seen. The story is incredible. I'm surprised no one tried to remake this flim, clearly overlooked. This is a true movie lover's horror flim. Some one with sense, not for people who want to see heads chopped off, and a lot of blood. This movie will make you rewind (due to the fact it's not on dvd) and watch over and over."
204665,2,Excellent pump.,"Does exactly what it is supposed to. Fills inflatables quickly, noise level is average for a powered pump, decent cord length (could probably be a bit longer since it does not include a hose-extension). In terms of pressure, you'll get more than enough pressure to fill most standard inflatables and rafts fully (I have a party island raft that fills quickly and fully). But inflatable boats such as kayaks and white-water rafts would probably need a stronger pump (or need to be topped off manually)."
204697,2,Great product & easy to use,I am very pleased with this product. I recommend this to anyone that wants to transfer data from their old broken computers to their new ones.
204738,2,Wonderful love story!,"If you like a love story that's written from the heart and very simply, you'll love ""Candle Light."" It's an old book that starts with two children who grow up together and eventually fall in love. You'll follow their lives and tragedies, and want to re-read again some day. This book contains no foul language or adult situations, so it's suitable for everyone. Also contains a very lovely poem (which is my favorite!), written by Robert Louis Stevenson (also known for writing ""Treasure Island"")."
204825,2,Two outta 3 are awesome,"Once again, Joe Satriani and Steve Vai bring their A-game and lay down some phenomenal tunes. Although Yngwie Malmsteen's talent is up there with Satriani and Vai, his 80's-style music can't keep up with the other 2. Still worth buying."
204834,2,Great for fans!,"If you are at all a meat loaf fan this is for you. This CD has almost all of his hits, all done live (although they don't realy feel live). The songs are a bit different than the previously recorded versions.His stories are fascinating, but really only worth listening to a couple of times.The songs are great, and if you are a fan of his you will love it. Too bad the dvd isn't available anymore. Is nothing sacred anymore? ;)Tracks include All Revved Up with No place to go, a spectacular and riviting new version of Life is a Lemon, the heart breaking You took the words right out of my mouth, he even answers what THAT is in his story for I'd Do Anything For Love (but I won't do that), Lawyers, Guns, and Money, More than you deserve, the ever powerful Heaven can Wait, Paradise by the Dashboard Lights (which is really fun here), Two out of Three Ain't Bad, Bat out of Hell, and Is Nothing Sacred (a new single version)Really, for the price here at AMazon, you could do a lot worse."
204835,2,A Global Hope Festival,This is a superb collection. I take it down off my bookshelf every time Bush and the Congress does something else stupid to give an instant jolt of hope. The book's strength is the incredible number od directions and voices that come at you with stories and visions that help rekindle a spark of faith in bringing change to the world's largest dysfuntional family -- the U.S. This is a book that can speak to everyone because it's many stories touch the heart.
204859,2,Commentaries are off topic,"I think Phil and Ray have run out of things to talk about regarding the show. The commentaries were what I was looking forward too, but here, they are jumbled by to many participants talking over each other. I'm somewhat disappointed.For the last set, I hope we get to hear from more of the cast without Phil and Ray for a switch."
204898,2,Korean mink blanket,"It is a beautiful blanket, but not quite what I bought in Korea. It is single layered and not for a king size bed. The wife likes it so I guess it stays. It really is a beautiful blanket."
205010,2,nice wallet,My husband really likes this wallet and has been using it for a few weeks. It's nice and thin but holds all his cards and cash.
205011,2,Soft Wallet,"I bought this for my husband. It's light weight. It's soft and wears like iron! There are loads of compartments to put cards, license, etc."
205033,2,I've had this for a year,"It's a damn fine product. Don't beleive the other reviews; no buzzing, no malfunctions from the box. They had defective products, I guess."
205090,2,The man is in his work.,"I can only thank the four previous reviewers for saying so well what I feel; not only about the book, but the author. These ideas are thrilling, challenging, radical, and hard. All of which makes them more than simply worthwhile. Mr. Hillman moves the ideas forward with an imagination filled with integrity."
205111,2,Esta genial!,"This album is fantastic and showcases the type of innovative flamenco-infused music coming out of Spain today. Some people have criticized these 'nuevo flamenco' groups for commercializing flamenco, but I think that's off the mark. Groups like Ojos de Brujo do a service to flamenco by taking it to new stages in its evolution. In that sense, Ojos de Brujo help preserve a very traditional form of music by doing it in a way relevant to today's world.On another note, I HIGHLY recommend another similar band: Los Delinquentes (the ""u"" has those two dots over it). THey play very tight street flamenco with a witty, indie-slacker attitude. Their song ""El aire de la calle"" is simply amazing."
205154,2,Good stuff...,"This is a highly listenable, mainstream jazz outing, often swinging in a similar vein as Jeff's work with Ray Brown/Gene Harris, but without Gene's unmistakable drive. Although hugely enjoyable and I'm reluctant to critisize, it seemed to me that all players had something in reserve and if they could have just tweaked things up a notch this album would've been outstanding. Still a five star album though, that deserves to be better known."
205203,2,This is one CD you have own because he sings so well.,I bought this CD after I went to a concert a radio station gave. Ginuwine was there and I fell in love with his music. I just had to go get it. I listened to it every single day. There is romantic songs and dance songs. you would love this CD.
205304,2,Humbling and inspiring like none before or after it.,"This book will bring out emotions and strengths you never thought you had. It should be required reading for all youth as they try to sort out what is important during the angst-filled years of searching for meaning in everyday life. The poignant poems and illustrations allow for much introspective thinking without directing it. It is also a wonderful springboard for families to use to discuss values and societal pressures. It is a great book to have on the coffee table as it appeals to all ages and it can be perused for seconds, minutes or hours. I highly recommend this title and I have given it as a gift many times. If you need inspiration, this is it"
205432,2,other recommendations,"Just before I bought my third badonkadonk with 1-Click Shopping, I noticed that Amazon suggested that others who've purchased this vehicle also purchase spicy lamb sausages and grapes. Now I don't know what to think. 5 stars. Joe Bob says check it out"
205440,2,Paxton Rocks....with Heart,"I had the pleasure of interviewing Paxton on my radio show. The group not only has talent.....but the man Paxton has a vulnerable heart of gold. Consider 'Fatherless Sons'; easily the theme song of this generation. From rock to ballads, the album runs the gamut of emotions. Emotions that are clearly reflective of the life of Paxton himself. But then THAT'S another story.........."
205450,2,Hard to put down,"Great book. I recommend it to anyone interested in virus outbreaks, which should be all of us; it also provides a look into Asia, and China's bureaucracy, that is hard to come by. If you're thinking about getting it, get it."
205482,2,Must have resource for Media Studio Pro users.,"This is a fantastic resource for MSP users at any level. In addition to very clear introductions and tutorials on the fundamentals, there are countless tips and tricks shared that can help streamline the workflow of even experienced editors using this application. Highly recommended reading."
205484,2,Don't pigeonhole this book!,"I've seen this book in the ""Gay Culture"" section of bookstores, rather than in the general fiction department, which is a shame because this is really a fine book.What makes this great story work is its attention to detail...you feel like you went to high school with all of the characters, which makes the underlying theme of sexual abuse and discovery even more compelling. Although set in the Midwest, the story really could happen anywhere. Also casts a fascinating angle on the whole ""alien abduction/false memory"" issue. The action just pulls you along from one page to the next, and when I got to the end I wished that I had another 100 pages to read."
205644,2,Ivana Doesn't Disappoint!,"I have liked Ivana since back in her Bass is Base days, bought her debut album as soon as it came out, and have since worn it out. Her new album is amazing, and I knew it would be, especially after seeing her performance in Vancouver this summer. Highlights - ""Cooldown"", ""What Matters"", ""Deserve"", and ""Dancin'"", but in reality, this whole album is awesome. Great summer music, and something that I will be listening to until her next album arrives (hopefully not in five years!) I love you Ivana, thanks for funkin' up my CD player!"
205694,2,BEST DEKKER BOOK BY FAR!,"Not only did I read this book I also purchased the audio book. This is--in my opinion--the single greatest Christian Fiction novel I have ever read! Dekker takes a sensitive subject--such as WWII--and not only humanizes the villain but he also carries the pain that was suffered by the captives of the camps and their families. Offhand I do not recall who read the book on the audio cd but there could not be a better voice to portray the voices of Dekker's characters. I read through some of the ""1 star"" reviews and I could not disagree more! Although spiritual warfare is a theme in this book I do not find it to be exclusively about spiritual warfare. There are a few scenes in the book that are a little graphic but most defiantly not over the top! The subject matter in this book is not only realistic it is captivating! DEKKER'S BEST BY FAR!"
205714,2,From one Race fan to another...,"If one wants to know of the hardship of racing at the turn of the century, then this book is for you! I've read through the original (published 1915) edition of the book, and the book is an interesting tale of the life of a once great jockey whose pride and misplaced trust led to his fall -- all told proudly, I must say! The addition of anecdote gems adds humor to a sad but interesting tale. Esp. for racing nuts!"
205728,2,Perfect size-up for our 3 year old,"We had an infant helmet and noticed it was getting a bit snug for our 3 year old son. So, we compared all of the kids helmets sizes and decided that this was the next size for him. It does fit very well, though it has a bit of excess strap that we will be loosening up as he grows over the next several years. Cute style -- he likes the flames and it gives him a bit of visibility. Very happy with this purchase."
205817,2,Product as expected & fast delivery,This product was exactly as described and came within 1 day after ordering
205899,2,Got what i wanted.,I ordered this through Amazon. And the product was exactly what i expected. it was the cheapest i could find anywhere as well. My girlfriend just loooooves when i wear this cologne. Got it via ground shipping.
205960,2,Excellent book for beginning & intermediate writers of empirical work,"I have always recommended this text for my upper level students in my 4-year college, however, most students did not avail themselves of it. So this year I am requiring it. Tired of repeating myself, now I'll just say ""read the book!"" This text WILL help you write an empirical paper if you have limited or no experience doing so. It will help you polish those skills if you have some experience. I highly recommend it."
205962,2,Farewell to a never ending piano legend!,"Simon Barere was one of the most formidable and amazing pianists ever lived. His astonishing technical equipment, his impressive phrasing and his winged fingering made of him a true living legend.Thanks to the actual technology, we have been able to rediscover and admire his supreme art. Once you listen him, you will be absolutely engaged.You' ve got my word."
206015,2,The standard of Confederate Naval history of the Civil War,W.N.Still's book is rightfully called the standard of Confederate Naval history. Accurate and objective accounts of the major and most minor engagements with Union forces are combined with extensive background information. The newer editions have an enlarged section of historical drawings and sketches. Mr. Still explains the political background that gave rise to the Confederate Ironclad program and his research is impeccable. An exhaustive literature listing rounds out this excellent book. While strictly scientific the inclusion of historical eyewitness accounts and the always fluent style make this book a joy to read. This book is a great starting point and goes very well with Maurice Melton's more subjective and somewhat dated book on the same subject. Also very interesting to compare with Ivan Musicant's 'Divided Waters'.A must for every Civil War student!
206100,2,A hair raising experience,"Tommyknockers was truly (and still is) an interesting horror for me. I like the way Stephen King took each character and described what was happening with them. I felt like I was there. As a matter of fact, I started reading this book in 1994 or 95 and I still have a good 150-200 pages to read....not that's its slow to read because its a very good book, it just plain scared me and I put it down and haven't picked it back up....I plan to do so soon ~ keep them coming stephen!"
206140,2,marvel nemisis,"Its a pretty fun game, the graphics are good, the characters are simple, and the fighting arena is almost all destructible; in multiplayer mode. The only flaws are the fact that in single player mode the levels are really easy to beat, and that the characters have almost all the same moves, so there's no surprises. But overall it's a pretty fun game."
206164,2,Short stories centering around living in Texas,"I don't live in Texas and I am always interested in different places-geography, food and culture.I like to know what life is really like in other places. Some of the stories are a bit too wordy for my taste but these points are often diminished by the interesting bits. Overall, I enjoyed this trip through Texas."

206193,2,Everything was great.,Good pictures and lots of songs you can't find any where else. The person I bought it for loved it.
206250,2,No thanks Dr. Hayward,"Dr. Charlene Hayward was a dentist you did not want to cross.In the office or in your personal life.Always choosing someone else's man, and not having one of her on.Maybe it was an inherited thing. Like mother, like daughter even like hergrandmother which she dearly love.Charlene has some very serious issues. I guess you could say don't cross Dr. Hayward.A good read."
206277,2,She's Only Going UP! From Here!!!,"Well this is the second release off the super sexy Shania Twain's multiplatinum album UP! And this is a great single. The first track is the country (green) version of Up and it's a really cool country song. The remix of Getcha Good is a pretty long and really wants you to get up and dance. The Ka Ching remix is the best off the CD it makes you feel like your in a club in the Carribean it's awesome, you have to get this CD!!!!!"
206300,2,It's a piece of history,"It is true that this album is a crude ""hand made"" piece of art and that younger listeners may have trouble appreciating it's beauty. It is not as tasty as Paul's RAM or as well fabricated as Red Rose Speedway, but it does capture the flavor and atmosphere of Paul and Linda's life during the transitional period of Paul's move to solo superstardom. Bip Bop sounds as if it came straight from Paul's garage and Tomorrow can make your palms sweatt like a little love note from your honey. The album has an incredibly personal feel to it. Band On the Run and later Paul LP's got far, far away from this down-home style. If you like Paul, buy Wild Life. If you don't like Paul so much then see Smashing Pumpkins."
206313,2,Nice toaster,This toaster works well I guess lol it can toast spots darker but is very fast I like it it looks great in our kitchen so we are happy
206328,2,Great cable for the price!!,"I had purchased a cheaper cable, and it was terrible, then I saw this one, and was skeptical about the higher price (Only like $3 more) and decided to get it. I am yet to say or learn about any negative aspect of this cable, the video output is clear, the cable is of VERY high quality. I repair computers, and needed a vga cable to connect to my monitor, and with my screen's native resolution of 1900x1200, this cable displays that resolution ultra clear with no fuzz or lines! WILL purchase again and recommend!"
206336,2,Neighbor helping Neighbor,The lead male actor steals this movie. A humble man with character thrust into the underworld of Hong Kong ruthlessness. Now that you know that the HK Underworld is more than any American movie company would undertake to put on screen. this movie will make you squirm and disgust you at times with all the shenanigans that two brothers whom are crimelords will go to keep there control and fear over those that are weaker than them. The ending was a little mushy compared to the extent the writer had traversed in all but the last five minutes of the film. Hold on tight as you will be awakened.
206359,2,very nice,i dont use my new pump yet but it is very nice and it seem perfect i cant wait to use it next springlike usual thanks amazon for the perfect service quick and at a nice price i dont give 5 stars because ijust dont try it
206401,2,Lovely music,Beautifully recorded and perfomed both by choir band soloists Unusual to find a recording of this as it might be considered out of fashioned.
206526,2,It's a Simpsons World!,The numbers on the backs of the pieces make it easy to put together. A lot more fun if your kids are helping you. The pieces all lock into place easy and securely.
206661,2,the avengers,I think this movie is my husbands favorite movie. He watched it 5 times in a week. I even liked it and Im more into scary movies. This is a great action movie!
206679,2,Avengers!,"The movie is an instant classic, all the characters are portrayed well and the suspense/action/humor are all as good as expected."
206716,2,"wow after the original, the directors cut, and the platnum.... should i get royalties?","This is the greatest anime of all time dont let my skepticism get to you. But this is like the 4th time it has been presented in a boxed set format. Is there anything which makes this different from the past 3 releases of Neon on boxed set? I cant answer that for you. Only if you are a fan and you have one of the previous boxed sets, don't bother make them tell you why this one is important. Otherwise i love this series it is the best in all anime history. A series that will make you think."
206734,2,A PERFECT FOLLOW-UP,"to Mer De Noms. Maynard and friends do it once again with these haunting ballads. This time around A Perfect Circle brings a more dark and somber depth to the table with more tribal sounding softer rifs in Thirteenth Step. Fans of Tool to Tori Amos will appreciate the album. While this album goes even more softer sounding than Mer De Noms, it seems to have alot more depth and spirituality. Arguably Maynard's best vocals since Aenima. Josh Frees does an amazing job on the drums. You don't even miss Paz (who went to Billy Corgan's flop band Zwan.) With the steady decline of music quality (i.e. cookie cutter pop rock/pop punk) in our day and age, A Perfect Circle sheds a glimmer of hope once again."
206768,2,Very good read,I'm a big western book fan. I've been readem all my life. I found myself totally engrossed in this one. Good read!(bg)
206770,2,The new masterpiece by the Church,"I've been a fan of The Church since I was thirteen. The only other band I hold in higher regard is Talk Talk. The Church has held my attention over the years as Talk Talk has, and with Talk Talk, their album ""Laughing Stock"" has for me been their pinnacle, and indispensible to my life.Now, ""Forget Yourself"" takes it's place beside ""Laughing Stock"" as one of my 'desert island"" CDs. ""Forget Yourself"" is a stunning accomplishment. It is no holds barred, damn the reviews; an enigmatic, effects laden work of absolute beauty. Kilbey, Wilson-Piper, Koppes, and Powles are at the top of their inventiveness, and I thank them whole heartedly for their efforts. With each repeated listen, the album grows on me, much the way Talk Talk did. For fans, this is the Church at their very best."
206785,2,A Great Behind The Scenes Story,"Alfred Hitchcock and the making of Psycho, is a unique and fascinating look at all the behind the scenes activities of the making of a great film. Indeed, it can almost serve as a companion to the movie for all those interested in what made Hitchcock the director ""tick"", and why his movies have had such lasting impact upon our society. It didn't happen by accident, mind you, as the 'master of suspense' intuitively understood what would and wouldn't work on the screen, and he guided his pictures accordingly. For those wanting to know why, after all these years, PSYCHO remains such a potent film, this is the book to read."
206798,2,harley valance,it complete the the certain package it would be nice if the offered it in a 42-by-15-inch so that you could use it an asmaller window
206829,2,Very nice!,"I saw this Sasha at stores yesterday,and I think she was very nice.I think the whole Rock Angelz collcetion is awsome.Collcet them all,and make an awsome Bratz Rock Angelz concert.SARA SIBLINI!!!MY SCENE LOVER!!!BRATZ LOVER!!!*FOREVER*P.S.I`ve got Rock Angelz Jade yesterday too,and I am very happy that I have a Bratz doll now!"
206878,2,great,The style and workmanship I like the most. I wish it would come in battery movement so I don't have to wear it all the time.
206895,2,Delish!!!,I purchased this shake because i started a low carb diet and only has 2 carbs per serving! at first i just mixed it with water with a spoon. Until i started using a blender and oh boy what a diff! tastes really good!!!
207106,2,The East and the Balkans too,"We have a mix which seems to be about 50-50, that is the Balkans figure heavily into a number of the stories in varying degrees of importance. So, even though this anthology is about the `Wild East,' a good bit of the Balkans is thrown in, and I don't think many consider the remains of the Yugoslavia as the `East'. It's the Balkans.None the less, there is good reading here. There's comic irony, and the highs of serious pointedness. But one of the longer stories suffers from a mild turgidness, and some of the comic work is, in the slightest way, cliché-ish , but I appreciate what the stories are saying. And the overall reading is good. A few of the stories are very strong and well rounded."
207138,2,When's the next one ...,"Once again, J.D. Robb (AKA Nora Roberts) has transported me all too briefly to the world of Eve and Roarke and I will, once again, haul out my much-read copies of her previous "". . . in Death"" masterpieces and re-read the ""good"" parts. Without giving any of the plot away, I'll just opine that this story was more poignant than the others. The emotional impact of the stories grows with each new entry. But, at the end I suffered a panic attack ... there's no ""teaser"" for the next installment. When's it coming?!?!?!"
207156,2,Excellent Game!!,"This game may as well salvage my liking for the X-Box. Beautifull graphics, smooth gameplay, lavish worlds, and classic hack n slash with fully adjustable camera views, come together to bring you a Baldur's Gate on steroids. Well worth it for any RPG fan. The only downside is, it's not long enough to satisfy my addiction."
207199,2,Bill O'Reilly is a C-Class commentator,"Bill O'Reilly is increasingly funny, unstable and possibly intoxicated. O'Reilly's views lack any serious depth or insight. O'Reilly, a former telepromptee on a tabloid ""news"" show, is not respected by decent law-abiding journalists. He has talked publicly about murdering Al Franken.I don't understand why Al Franken would stoop so low to attack such a useless, self-important ""human"", but it makes for a fun, fast-paced, hilarious read."
207242,2,One of My Favorites,"Rodney says if you put this and Jewel of the South together, you have three quarters of a good album. But this is one of my favorites. The back stories on some of the songs make it special as well as the collaboration with Guy Clark and back up from artists Trisha Yearwood and Patty Loveless. If you are a fan it will not disappoint, if you are a music aficionado looking to track the artist's growth and change this a the best of the ""Sony Years""."
207248,2,feel good music,"OK, so it isn't as sophisticated as the Beatles and there isn't any deep meaning, and the lyrics are pretty corny too, but this album is one hit single after another and is great feel-good music and wonderful nostalgia if you grew up in the 60s. Peter Noone has the perfect pop-bubble gum voice, the arrangements are simple but they work, and isn't the reason we listen to music (at least sometimes anyway) just to feel good? For what it is, it is very very good."
207252,2,Good support,"I like this bra, it has enough support to keep the jiggle under control & fits pretty well. I left off one star because it's almost too short in the straps. I am tall, so would have liked to lengthen them a little more, but ran out of strap. But, it's ok, I'm sure in time it will loosen up at least a little."
207304,2,Never Give Up,Excellent book! I loved it! 'Within Reach' is a book about Mark Pfetzer. He is fourteen when he decides that he will follow his dreams and become a mountain climber. Read the book and find out that mountain climbing is not all its cut out to be. I think that this book is very exciting. You will not be able to put it down. Fantastic. Read about how hard it is to follow your dreams when you are very young.
207321,2,Terrific Zombie Movie,"Loved it! As good or better than Shawn of the Dead. Great acting, very funny! I would highly recommend it."
207322,2,Nice buying! very informative for me being a PPI,"A lot of information on practical standards, very useful for me as a (foreign) airplane instructor. FAA standards are worldwide recognized."
207327,2,Amazing Writing of Texas Life As It Was,A great read. Better than most western writers of the old school. Brings out the reality of the way life must have been for our forefathers that helped to bring Texas to what it is today. Great character depiction. I could picture them standing in front of me as the story moves along at a good pace. I look forward to enjoying more books by Newcomb in the days to come as well as searching back for some good missed reading.
207423,2,A Great Book,"This book is good. At first nothing is really happening, and all at once things start to happen, and it doesn't stop until the very end. I like how she had two suspects and you couldn't tell who the bad one was. It was scary at the end, but it was a great book."
207449,2,Misleading Reviews,"As a long-time Balogh fan, I was hesitant to buy this book after some of the extremely negative reviews. I'm glad I did. A self-effacing, kind, charming, cheerful hero and a buoyant, energetic, loving heroine, both intelligent and striving towards maturity, are lovingly portrayed in all their insights and lack thereof. Granted, the book is more a study of individual emotional evolution than action, but the couple is charming, their development believeable, and, as always, Ms Balogh brings it all together with the most complete of happy endings--something THIS reader of romances truly appreciates. Unless you just have to have serious threats, conflicts, crimes and mayhem in your romances, you'll enjoy it!"
207464,2,Best I've Ever Owned,"I got my first Pentel PS535 soon after they first became available. I'm not sure of the exact date, but was using it by 1980. The reasons I like it are simple:(1) The sliding sleeve protects my shirt pocket.(2) The sliding sleeve prevents breaking the lead.(3) It has the best ""feel"" of any pencil I've used.I am a geologist and much of my use of this pencil has been in the field where it is subjected to dusty and sometimes wet conditions. Whenever it gets dirty and the grit interferes with the action I take the pencil apart, pour a bit of rubbing alcohol through it, dry it out, and put it back in use.Twelve years ago I realized I'd be lost without this indispensable tool and bought two spares. Last week I lost the original because the pocket clip had weakened and it slipped out of my pocket. Of course I can't find the spares so I'm buying another pair.I tried practically everything available before my first PS535 as well as many designs after, and nothing else is in its class."
207480,2,The Problem Is Me,"This tea kettle is as wonderful as everybody says it is. Unfortunately, I unintentionally fell asleep while heating water in mine and it was ruined when I woke up. I have ruined (including today) all but one pot I own by getting busy on my computer and forgetting water is on the stove or by falling asleep. I would love to have this tea kettle with a train whistle. I couldn't hear it over my central air conditioning when it came on, but I am closer to the air conditioner than to the kitchen. I was always alert to listen for it, however, until that day I dozed off. I'm not writing to discourage anyone from buying this. I'm just forewarning anyone who is like me. :-("
207518,2,Expensive but high quality digital caliper.,"This is a high quality digital caliper with both English and Metric output modes. Comes with the button cell battery. It is sealed to IP67 and has a data output that can be used if the additional cable is purchased. Overall, it is highly recommended but expensive."
207607,2,A+++,"Stacie Orrico is one of the best singers in the world today. This is her best single to date, check it out now!"
207654,2,Vulgar and wonderful,"""The sporting life"" is an odyssey in an american effort to preserve the european tradition of hunting and fishing. Vulgar, but absolutely wonderful."
207655,2,The best rebounder EVER!,"I have purchased numerous rebounders over the years, but they always fell apart within a year. Total junk! So after much research and saving, I decided to go for the Needak rebounder. What a well-made trampoline!! I couldn't be happier, and have all the faith that this will be the last rebounder I will need to buy for some time to come."
207713,2,A stellar experience,"The musicians did a fine job on this 1978 album. The strings towards the end of ""Perfect Love Affair"" are heavenly, and Ray Mang sampled that section for his 2002 song ""Orchestral Manoeuvres"". My favorite part of ""Cosmic Melody"" is the string portion that follows the playing of bell keyboards. The best song on the album is ""Funk Encounter"", a very catchy track which is perfect from start to finish."
207714,2,Nice product,Great curtain. Waterproof and looks good. Very satisfied with this product. Only 4 stars because it is pricey.
207754,2,Excellent!!,I saw the band live in Milwaukee this month and Skynyrd blew the roof off the place. The venue was not too far from where I saw the original band with Ronnie in the 1970's so it was really special to me. During the show they played video of the old days (I cried). I received the special edition of Vicious Cycle for Christmas (with bonus DVD). I didn't have a DVD player yet so went out and bought one to specifically see this DVD. I was thrilled to see that alot of the footage shown at the concert was on this DVD. The songs are great - highly recommended for any Lynyrd Skynyrd fan.
207756,2,CRYSTAL!,This book once again earns five stars!This book is so awesome because Marvin is going to Casey's house!That's so weird.Casey invited him over to look at something.(And I thought he hated her.)At the end something REALLY weird happens.SO READ IT AND FIND OUT!!
207821,2,Too easy!,"After using a overlarge hip pack for a couple of years, it was time to invest in a real Man Bag. Read the other reviews here re: this item and for the price I figured I could not go wrong. It's been two weeks now and it's great. Maybe just a wee bit too big but I'm sure I'll fill it in time. No issues with the zippers or any smells (as per another review).Lot's of space. 4 zippered compartments, 1 open compartment. A spot for my business card holder. Also a place to clip my keys. Not a shoulder strap kind of guy so no comment on it. Does the trick and the price was quite fair. Thanks!"
207869,2,Works as advertised,The Sony DVD+RW work well. They are an affordable way to save data. I would recommend this product for use at an office or at home.
207953,2,Must have - great catalogue,Would buy second volume in a minute. If publishers check only flaw is two page spreads. I get the size is relevant to originals but would love to see reprint in larger format and the double page images done on singles. Must be more than enough for Vol 2 to be done.But this is a must have for anyone interested in male nude depictions in modern world.
207961,2,Sounds Even Better Today,Classic psychedelic rock from the 60's . Time has come today still sounding good as ever. Nice soul toneswith the rest of the album to cut away from the hard edge title song. But still a must have for anyone who remembersthe 60's sounds and loves those long play jams that never seem to end.
207994,2,Better than standard chicklit,"I picked this up after reading yet another shell of a book on modern day, married woman life and was so pleased. The writing is enjoyable and poetic, descriptive enough to form a picture in the head, and fluid enough to have kept me engaged and interested. The plot lacked a little and I had questions about some of the characters (i.e. I didn't find that much *not* to like about Emily's husband, Kevin, although the descriptions of what Emily sees while her love is waning - a drip of dried milk on his upper lip after his morning cereal - are spot-on ""showing, not telling"") -- hence the four stars. Yes, the ending was open, but I did find some settling within Emily that was enough closure for me. I would certainly read additional books by this author."
208094,2,Eclectic Mixing - it's about time,"What's wrong with this CD? There do happen to be a few tracks out of place but the rest blend well and compliment each other. I think what the record company was trying to provide two opposing sides symbolically represented by the sdtrk content (techno - Frost; rap - Blade), which made for an interesting listen. It's nice to know that film soundtracks have evolved this far to offer a much more eclectic mix that would appeal to a wide range of people. The techno is an obvious reminder of the film; the rap is there as an added extra (or, as someone put it, like ""Vampires n the Hood""). That said, some of the lyrics are a little too silly to be taken seriously, but, hey, nothing's perfect."
208105,2,loved it,I remeber watching these when I was younger and I watched them with my two children. They loved them also.
208115,2,Best live blues song ever recorded,""" Called its my own fault"" Jimmy & Rick Derringer trade licks I saw this same band life back in 1973 in Asbury Nj Played same set Just a freaking amazing concert If you a guitarist and you have nt heard this you really should I had a friend over who i was playing out with he was younger and never heard it His jaw was on the floor ""that is sick "" yup sure is enjoy!"
208125,2,Solid tank,"Hey, it's a propane tank ... I exchange it when it's empty for some other tank that's full -- no one ever sees it."
208130,2,Sexy but.......................,"I bought these shoes in black. They are very sexy, but the toe part very tight. I had to take them off because my big toe was dying. I am hoping that if I wear them a couple more times that part will loosen up a bit."
208203,2,Great for beginners,"This was a great introduction book. Teaches you all about form, the lanes, etc. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to sharpen their bowlng game."
208308,2,Wonderful Music!,The CD arrived on time as promised and in great shape. This was a Christmas gift for my husband and I hope it helps him unwind on the drive home from a rough day at work.Thanks for the great service and simple shopping experience.
208314,2,Top notch for Cruise and Foxx,"Collateral is a great film that is rare during the summer season. The plot is fairly predictable and unoriginal but this movie works. Director Michael Mann uses intensity to create suspense and offers several surprises along the way for the viewers.Tom Cruise's performance here was definitely underrated. He delivers on all accounts as the murderous Vincent. Jamie Foxx is very good as Max, but was an Oscar nomination really deserving? He had all that hype from Ray and voters decided to give him a nod for this as well. More deserving of a best supporting actor nod would be Mark Ruffalo, who is constantly delivering in every movie he's in. Featured here as a good cop, Ruffalo's performance is as always top notch.Collateral combines a strong director with a strong cast and ultimately produces a strong movie. Go see it."
208316,2,Collat-a-kick-ass,"This movie is awesome, Tom Cruise's best! The special features disk is equally as interesting. Amazon shipped my order lickety split!"
208353,2,Mega Speed Reading,This has been a useful item and came as described. We have not finished the program yet but are making progress. The author is an excellent communicator and teacher.
208366,2,Program that works,"This is very good program, it can make a significant improvement in the pronunciation in a very short time. You can create your own list of words and study only those words or you can use basic words or advanced words. There are mouth exercise for basic sound and color coded legend help to recognize the letter in the word. Program can play the sound and word automatically."
208372,2,FUN,These are so much fun. I had to get the other sets.. Easy to clean I just wipe off with a baby wipe.
208382,2,Bella Voce!!!,Rosa once again has supplied the listener with a performance to remember. This recording is an absolute delight and a must have for your personal early music library collection. This is a must listen!Brava!!!
208386,2,beautifully ecclectic,"this album is truly amazing...i love how she incorporates folk, rock, hip hop and a kind of traditional, celtic-y sense of the natural world. the lyrics are truly lovely and some of the faster songs are catchy without being simple-minded---she really is a a gifted poet and all the songs reflect that (and i particularly love ""whether or not"" and ""Diving to be deeper"")"
208451,2,I give it a 4,"Meh.. the sub is alright. It reaches the lows, but its not as loud as everyone hyped it up to be. If i turn up the low pass filter to higher frequencies, the higher frequencies get louder, but then the low frequencies aren't as loud as i would like. It helps my system have a fuller sound overall, but its not as ground shaking as I would have liked, especially for its size. Then again, it could be my set up."
208507,2,12 out of 17 are the best songs in the soundtrack,"Here are my favorite song in order.1 ONE WEEK2 KIDS IN AMERICA3 ALL-STAR4 ALL MY BEST FRIENDS ARE METALHEADS5 SPILL6 NOWHERE NEAR7 THE IMPRESSION THAT I GET8 HEY DIGIMON9 DIGI RAP10 LET`S KICK UP11 CHANGE INTO POWER12 HERE WE GOI don`t like the hidden soundtracks much,but I truly like ONE WEEK!"
208592,2,I WISH THERE WAS MORE,"There are lots of reviews talking about what a great kid's movie this is. Heck, this is one of my (and my husband's!) favorite movies, and we're in our 40's! I hope the director has a long, productive career ahead of him. If you're really, really tired of formulaic Disney movies, you MUST see this!"
208625,2,Le Jerry!,"I'm thrilled that Paramount has boxed up their 10 Jerry Lewis titles and cut the price. The titles include The Bellboy, Cinderfella, The Delicate Delinquent, The Disorderly Orderly, The Errand Boy, The Family Jewels, The Ladies Man, The Nutty Professor, The Patsy and The Stooge.I've been entertianed by most of these films - having checked out the single releases - but was unwilling to buy them for $15 a pop. But now the price is right and I will be able to torture my children with Jerry on the loose.While the bonus features on most aren't overwhelming, they seem enlightening to understand what Jerry was doing at the time. He was an innovator using video monitors to help direct himself.I do hope Paramount is able to put out a good low priced boxset of the Jerry Lewis - Dean Martin comedies."
208628,2,Nikon EP-5 Power Supply Connector for EH-5 AC Adapter,Nikon EP-5 Power Supply Connector for EH-5 AC AdapterGot the item as described. Work like a charm.
208638,2,Healthy Body Cookbook,"This book contains great ideas that are also tasty. My picky eaters enjoyed the Breakfast No-Bake granola bars, the Awesome Banana Berry Pancakes and the Creamy, Dreamy Yogurt Orange-Banana Frozen pops. We are excited to try many of the other great recipe ideas. The recipes in here are easy to follow, and taste great!"
208641,2,The dogs love em,"I have two dogs, a basset and a corgi, and they are total chewers. If they don't have something to chew on then they're running around the house like little mini-tornadoes. They don't like rawhide chips, get bored of unflavored bones, and are only occupied for ten to fifteen minutes with all other forms of chew toys. Keeping them in flavored rawhide gets expensive. These things are a great deal. Big bones, flavors that make my dogs happy, and way less expensive than anything I could get at the local pet store."
208656,2,i love ken burns' films,I love the films by Ken Burns and crew. I've bought this set as a gift a few times. It's a great sampler of his smaller works. Highly recommended for fans of documentaries!
208663,2,Who Says You Can't Go Home? AFTER YOU PURCHASE THIS FANTASTIC ALBUM YOU CAN!,"Take a look around, the 'smirk' off of their new album is seen everywhere! It serves as a great reminder when you see it in the streets, on a telephone pole, wherever, to pop into the record store and check out the album! It is worth the time! The whole album is great! Albums are always worth buying when there's more than just one good song & I can say that both my husband & I love each and every song! Bon Jovi continues to impress us with each new album! Great 2005 album for an initial 80s hairband! As well, this album introduces us to a creative combination of country and rock sounds put together in a duet with Jennifer Nettles of Sugarland! Not much of a country fan but this has opened me up to checking out Sugarland as well! Bon Jovi strives to try new things and not be afraid! Job well done!"
208809,2,Fun and Entertaining,"A very entertaining program with a good mix of action, humor and good will. At times the writing is corny. This is a show I enjoyed as a kid and now I'm able to share it with my kids who enjoyed it as much as I did. This is good entertaining family programming if you are not overly sensitive to violence. This is an action hero show, so it is packed with gun play, fist fights, car chases and crashes. However, no one is ever killed or seriously injured (all involved in the end run from the scene coughing). Target audience in my opinion boys over the age of eight."
208895,2,Mario Kart DS,This is a must buy if your kids like racing games this will be one they like my daughter has several games but this is the one she can not stop playing ENJOY!!!!
208898,2,original mario kart fun,"I was expecting that it would be better than other mario kaart games but it was just like the classic, which is good enough for me. It is a lot of fun and keeps you entertained for hours."
208926,2,A Superb Novel,"The King of America is a beautifully writing, deeply moving work that touches on a number of important themes but presents them not through pedagogy but through the power of art, character, narrative, and language. Stephen Hesse is one of the most complex, touching, tragic figures in American fiction. He is the rich kid, the outsider, the artist, the observer. His life in America both contrasts with and reflects his experiences in New Guinea. In both places, he is an outsider, who does not belong to the culture which he both observes and attempts to participate in. He is in search of himself sexually, spiritually, and professionally. A member of one of America's wealthiest, most powerful families, he is at once alienated from them but aware of the power that membership provides and which he uses. Gillison packs into a little more than 200 pages a wealth of ideas about American society, class, America in the world, individuality, and family, and she writes beautifully."
208997,2,Excellent Book,"This is an excelent book which teaches us how things are inter-related, and it gets better and better towards the end.I find it very enlightening."
209007,2,Nice angle,I bought this to use in making staves for boxes but I have used it for chamfering edges of projects. It is a heavy duty router bit. Made real strong and very large bit. Works flawlessly.
209032,2,"Very nice watch, excellent price","I have owned this watch for over a year. I wanted a nice looking, affordable watch that I could wear daily. This watch surpassed my expectations. It is built quite solidly, and is heavy compared to similar watches. The flight computer works smoothly. I got quite a few compliments on the watch."
209052,2,ROCK AND ROLL,"This is a very powerful and percussive mix of Aerosmith's 3rd album. The bass is absolutely thunderous and that makes this disk a good one for showing off your system to any head-bangers that happen to drop by. I had to dial my subwoofer back twice during the opening cut, but that's fine.I was happily impressed with the multichannel mix on this one. Jay Messina did an outstanding job of staying true to the original vibe of the album while taking advantage of current technology to make a classic sound even better.Five Stars because I can't give it six."
209088,2,good book!,"The book was fascinating, kept my interest pretty well through the first half but the end got a little floppy and preachy. The culture, protocol, all the bits that lend the color to her book were great. The wife is a kind of Superwoman, assisting her husband in many ways, almost upstaging him, but also creating problems for him with her derring do. I did enjoy it very much. Now I have to go back and read some of her earlier stuff."
209144,2,stress release,My dr. recommended it as a way to deal with the stress of medical conditions and it does releave and help relax the mental and phyical stress
209153,2,AWSOME PRODUCT!,THIS IS AWSOME! IT HAS AMPLE ROOM FOR ALL OF MY CLEANING SUPPLIES AND THEY HAVE ROOM TO BREATHE. THEY ARE NOT SO CRAMMED INTO A SPACE THAT THEY ARE DIFFICULT TO GET OUT. THANKS FOR MAKING MY HOUSEWORK A LITTLE EASIER!
209171,2,Great info to help you navigate the home buying process,"I didn't know half of the things involved in buying a house when I started the process not too long ago. This book presents all the major (and minor) events and issues in a clear, understandable way which helped me become knowledgeable quite quickly. I think it helped me most in understanding the process and then giving me the ability to ask the right questions and look for the right answers to these questions. Of the three different books I read (The Unofficial Guide to Buying a Home; and the second I can't remember) this was definitely the most useful.This book is not a manual or recipe for the ultimate home purchasing experience. Many of the author's suggestions I followed, while some others I didn't. Regardless, though, all of it was very informative and helped me to make the decisions which have led to a very pleasant, happy home buying experience."
209204,2,Red Hot Explosion of Musical Joy,"This album is without a doubt the greatest thing that I have heard in a long time. It's a unique sound that moves and flows so beautifully. There are all kinds of instruments and vocals volleying back and forth. Little sounds are perfectly injected to create an overwhelming compilation that will lift you up and suck you in. It's hard to believe that it took a bunch of hicks from Georgia to blend rock, country, and world beat into the perfect sound."
209237,2,Reebok Mens Bronco slippers,"I bought these for my Bronco fanatic husband for XMas and he just loved them!!! They came faster than i expected, like 3 days or so and they were packaged perfectly........i will definitley buy again from Amazon!!!"
209239,2,best available study guide,"this one's the best book to study for the NCIDQ. but they need to make an updated version. i just took the ncidq and items on the test but not in the book were drapery, carpet and wallcovering calculations and sustainable design."
209279,2,Worth the Time!,"My gosh, go read all the reviews from people who gave it one star. They say ""it's a boring book... shallow characters... dumbed-down science... biased..."" I read six in a row and every one was long winded and contained the same points. THAT was boring. State of Fear, however, was not. It's a quick read, and yes- it's rather biased. But aren't we all? I think he presents an excellent argument. Rather than say ""global warming isn't real,"" he basically says we don't know enough about it to know anything for certain. We haven't done near enough research to prove OR disprove global warming. Why is the government forcing legislation dealing with a theory that we can't prove yet? It's ridiculous. Read this book- it presents a great argument backed by well-done research, there's a decent storyline, and it's not long."
209331,2,"As expected, A true masterpiece.",This album is truly a great one. I had tip and loved it. This album totally blew me away with just one listen. Be on the lookout for these guys to make it big.
209470,2,bye bye hot flashes!,I was pleasantly surprised to find out that this product works WELL!! My gynecologist suggested it to me after I quit taking HRT and was still having hot flashes/night sweats. Takes a week for results.
209523,2,sleep at last,"I'm in the process of moving and had been attempting to sleep on a futon with not much success... then I purchased the mattress topper and WOW!!! what a difference, I've been sleeping through the night ever since it's arrival."
209612,2,the best athlete ever,"this documentals are a probe that one man can change the history of a sport, like maradona and pele, jordan is the best basketball player ever, and this box set is at a very good price, this is a good investment"
209616,2,Great to Have Some Live Performances,"More than just a collection of her previously released works, includes life performances as well. A must for any Basia fan."
209679,2,Best in the COD series!,Cant go wrong......this is one of those COMPLETE shooters where the single AND multiplayer are both extremely fun.This is also one of those games that are heavily discounted right now so keep an eye out for $39.99 deals.
209684,2,Best game of the year ?,This is not the best game of the year its the best game of the centry. To bad its not just for the PS3 though but oh well at least we have Metal gear solid 4 take that X box.
209780,2,Levi's Mens 514 Blue Collar Jean,"these fit perfectly, but were much lighter weight than I had anticipated. However, overall that makes them great for all-year round!"
209844,2,On The Devil's Court,"My book is called On The Devil's Court.The author of this book is Carl Deuker. This book is a cross between fantasy and realistic fiction.Joe is a 17 year old red head that is tall and only passion is basketball. His dad is a really smart scientist. Joe's dad wants his son to be like him and go to stanford with straight a's but Joe doesnt want to. Joe moved from Boston with a promise from his dad to beable to go to a public school. Joe meets some friends like Ross, he goes to a public school that Joe wants to go to. Joe and Ross get in a lot of trouble togather and Joe gets caught by his parents so they force him to go to a private school. Joe wants to fit in so he sells his soul to the devil so he can be good at basketball. His team makes it to the state championship against the public school team who has Ross, who had become his worst enemy, on it.I really liked this book. I think it is appropreiate for middle schoolers and up."
209864,2,A perfect CD for Massage,"As a massage therapist, it is really tough to find appropriate music for a session. This CD hits the mark. No singing, chanting, or other distracting bird calls. Just pure melodious tunes that flow from one song to the other. My clients love this CD and you will too."
209886,2,Excellent Shaver,"Over the past several decades I have purchased shavers from a variety of manufacturers, including Norelco, Remington, Panasonic, Grundig and others. The Remington R-9300 is the best I have ever used. It provides a very close, comfortable and reasonably fast shave without the noise and vibration one would have with a foil shaver. It has several attractive features, such as a nice travel pouch instead of a small cloth sack and a useful LCD display of shaving minutes remaining. Please be aware that it takes a couple of weeks of use before one's skin adapts to the shaver. The manufacturer states that the shaver can be cleaned using tap water. I have not attempted to clean the shaver with water due to my unfortunate experience with a Norelco Quadra action. Instead I simply use the cleaning brush provided, complemented by an air cleaner which is particularly helpful when cleaning the combs. I hope this review is helpful."
209897,2,It's a good replacment filter for an ok system,"It's the replacement filter I needed for my Bionaire filtration system. The filters work well. It's the Bionaire system that may or may not be the best room air filter b/c you have to buy replacment cartridges pretty often. So, in the end, I would've spent more on a filterless system b/c the filter price & machine price are the same when you consider how many filters you end up buying during the life of the machine."
209905,2,Some of the best comedy available,"""I know what you're thinking."" Eliot turns to look at JD.""You're butt looks like two pringles wrestling,"" JD thinks.""No you don't,"" he states, straight faced but with eyes wide.I love this show. As someone who has all but turned away from network television, I didn't see this show until the third season. While I missed some great shows, I did have the blessing of watching the whole season for the first time, commercial free and during my favorite time of the day.The humor is fresh and the frequent views into what the characters are really thinking allows us to connect with the well-developed characters. It's hard not to love nearly every one of the regulars.If you've seen the first season already, buy this now; if you haven't seen it, buy this now and get next day shipping."
210005,2,GREAT STUFF PC11...!!!!!,"I had a leak from the water supply line into the house. Just where the line goes thru the brick. I tried liquid steel...I tried epoxy...but it couldn't take the pressure...I put pc11 on a rusty pine (I didn't clean anything)...I put it on thick about 1/4"" at 3pm...at 7pm I checked it and there was a hard crust on the outside...just to be safe I waited to 7am to turn the water back on. This worked GREAT!!!! If you are like me and when all else fails read the directions, then this is for you. I don't think you can do it wrong.....try it you'll like it."
210039,2,in the time of film noir,"I admit to being film noir fan of long standing. Maybe it was the fact that I grew up watching black and white television and spent many a late night watching this kind of film which dominated late night television in those days but there is something about the combination of diologue, photography and generally simple plot line that evokes a different, seemingly less complex time. Double Indemnity fits very comfortably into that mix. The plot line is familar-unhappy housewife, uncaring husband, new man at the door who just happens to sell life insurance and there you have it- motive for murder. Of course, the guilty parties have to face the consequences of their crime, but that is a given. You know it is a modern morality play, after all. I also suggest you read James M. Cain's book on which the movie is based which is far less tame in language, steamier about the sexual tension and more insightful as to motivation. Isn't that usually true of movies based on books?"
210053,2,A Winner!,"Hard to beat this Tetsubin teapot on price, size and quality. I needed this 40 ouncer to brew large quantities of tea for family and friends, and am enjoying the convenience of having ths teapot along with a large cast iron warmer to keep a pot of tea handy at all times during the day."
210062,2,Good quality ear phones,I liked the clear sound quality due to USB digital connection. I had not experienced this quality with regular analog connections. The only thing is that the ear covers are little small (suitable for kids upto 12 years!) and tight for adult ears.
210150,2,It all comes down to this,"In this book Fireheart becomes leader. Tigerstar also becomes leader to Tigerclan. A clan that is mixed by Shadowclan and Riverclan. Firestar then must lead Lionclan into battle with Bloodclan(a murderous clan of ally cats)and Tigerclan. Tigerstar is then double crossed by Scourge and killed in one blow. Fireheart and Tallstar now must face the most threatning thing to come to the forest. Or if they lose, they must leave the forest! This book is one of my favorites. Erin Hunter just doesn't stop! Pick it up, and never put in down!"
210180,2,first soap i ever watched,"I was 5 when i first began watchn days im 37 now and still love it i watch it much less only because i have to keep in the story or not watch at all my work schedule is ever changing and i cant stand only watching once a week. i would love to for days to come out on dvd i would buy every episode! its a part of my childhood memories my grandma and i used to watch together then i would watch her cook supper i have a 14 year old daughter now and even she likes days i hope it goes to dvd it wont last forever on tv and would be a waste to just let go. if u love dramatic love stories and strong family bonds and just love you will love days of our lives and enjoy it and cherish it as i do! my thought is they will release it on dvd but they are waiting until the right time so they make lots more money from it ,either way i will still buy this series its priceless for soo many reasons to me ."
210197,2,Cardboard (not plastic) case,The quality of the music on the CD is great. The case that it came in is not... it's cardboard. Does anyone else out there hate cardboard CD cases?
210212,2,Perfect Strangers Rocks my world,"My only negative comment about the DVD's would have to be the lack of extra's. A dance of joy compilation, and that was pretty much it. However, even in these early episode's the show was classic slapstick comedy, well timed and executed. I forgot how the first two seasons Larry and Balki work in a resale shop. THey get jobs at the paper in season 3, so don't expect characters like Mr. Gorply and Lydia to make appearances. I was amazed the characters were well developed so early on, and the episodes had me laughing so hard I got the hickups. I can't wait for the entire series to be on DVD!"
210262,2,White,This was a great book. I could not put it down. I am ready to read Green next. Don't start this series unless you have time for the whole set.
210309,2,LUNA ......Took me to the moon and back......,"I love this CD, it is quite different from her many past releases. I like all most her styles but this CD is by far the most experimental. Produced with Reihold Heil(Run Lola Run, Spliff). Marianne has such a clear voice and the tracks LUNA are a good balance of energetic (Lover, Von Der Erde Zum Mond, Wen Es Wieder Winter Wird) and moody (Wie ein Lechtturm, Du Und Wer Bist Du sounds. Futuristic to me. The CD offered here seems to contain ""Wenn der Morgen kommt"" which is a German version/variation of Cher's ""Strong Enough"" This track was not on the original pressings. I am anxious to see what she does next."
210316,2,Power vacuum with some design problems,Pros:- Power.- value.- color. I think the green color is cute.- light weight. small size.- look.Cons:- Over heated. My house is about 1900sqft but the vacuum overheated and auto shutdown after about 1000sqft. have to wait for the motor to cool down.- A bit hard to push. The problem is the wheels' design. They are too small.
210357,2,The Best Homeschooling Book Available,"Absolutely the best book available for parents interested in homeschooling and providing a rich education to their children. I wish I had time to say more, but you won't be sorry if you buy this book. I promise."
210447,2,Battery is better than expected,"The delivery occured on schedule and in good condition. I charged the battery for 24 hours and then installed it in a Sony CR120E/R laptop (13"" screen). After 5 hours of Power Point presentations and data entry, which included the wireless being on for about 45 minutes, the battery had a 20% charge left. The screen brightness was set at 50% of normal. The battery totally met my needs."
210452,2,hunters dream,My first unit had a defective radio and Garmin swapped it out and saved my waypoints. Suggest you buy ear bud w/ PTT mic. My hunting parties used them and it coordinated our hunts accurately especially sending waypoints. Bring batteries since 6hrs seems to be useable time. If money is not an issue buy 530 model since the radio power is 5 watt versus 1/2 watt and the togel switch is easier to use. Overall it made hunting with a group better.
210513,2,Got this toy for my kid cousin,"My little cousin really liked this toy, but some parts were difficult to assemble for him. It took quite some force to put together some links together, but after he made it, he seemed to enjoy playing with it."
210556,2,Canon Printing Calculator,"I love this little calculator. No cord to fight. I can use it anywhere. The only problem I have is that I can't figure out how to load the tape. I'll have my grandson do it. He's good at stuff like that. When that gets done, it will be perfect."
210570,2,good show,I hadn't heard of this when it was on TV but bought it recently and really enjoyed it. It's worth a try.
210622,2,JanSport big student classic series daypack,Love the backpack. Lots of space and I love the color. Amazon delivered it in record time. I do wish it had a more strong bottom.
210623,2,Awesome. Came very next day!!!,Just as described and incredibly fast service. Thank you! Getting it fast was important because my son needed it for school.
210708,2,Wonderful book about Laura's adult life,"This book has 3 stories in it about Laura's adult life. Any LIW fan will love reading about their move to the Ozarks, her trip to San Francisco and the trip back to the Dakotas."
210724,2,Best Work since 1984,"This has to be RUSH's best work since the early 80s. The sound is fresh and modern, yet it is also a throwback to the earlier days of this great band. Gone are the synthetizers and back is the 3 piece set of guitar, bass and drums.Certain songs are quite heavy and blend 2112 with Tool. Songs like Earthshine, Nocture and Freeze rival with any other RUSH classics.Mr. Lifeson FINALLY comes out of the cocoon he has been in since Grade Under Pressure (1984!) and his guitar work is dazzling. Too many RUSH songs since 1984 had seemed ""sanitized"" and muzzled by an overuse of keyboards. Not ""Vapor Trails"". This is a raw, haunting and beautifully heavy album....a true RUSH classic."
210738,2,This game is fun and interesting,"Aidyn Chronicles The First Mage is a good game to get if you like games like Dragon Warior.I love how the characters do battle, because it makes the battle come more alive.I also like the story line and the interesting characters you meet along the way."
210781,2,Entertaining with too much profanity !,"My wife and I both read ""Motherhood and Hollywood...""and enjoyed it very much.We always watch ""Everybody Loves Raymond"" and also tape it for later to watch again when there are no more.It seems a lot of Patricia's life is the basis for some of theshows.The only negative is I wish Patricia Heaton had used the same moral sensitivity she did when she walked out of the awards show. Her book had way too much profanity. None at allwould have been better. What's the old saying: People who useprofanity only do so because they don't have an adequatevocabulary to express themselves.Remember when Clark Gable said, ""Frankly my dear.....Well look where we are now !OK, I'll get off my protest podium.I just hate profanity. When you've had a parent that usedprofanity in every sentence , you grow weary hearing it.It's only a two-hour read. If you don't like it you haven'twasted that much time."
210786,2,Entertaining and informative film.,Great documentary on the history of air hockey and the few people trying to keep it from disappearing.
210835,2,"IT""S PERFECT!","The bag is great, it snaps into the carrier and is more rigid than other bags I have owned so it doesn't flop over like some. It holds quite a bit of stuff, I do wish it had the ability to expand though... Best price found was through Amazon.com (as usual!)"
210854,2,Stir Fry pan,very happy with this Stir-Fry pan. Make great tasting meals and is very easy to clean up. Like the see thru lid. It came quickly to. Couldn't be happier. Thank you for a great product.
210891,2,The Karp Saga Continues,"I'm a long time fan to Mr. Tannenbaum's work, and the Karp extended familyis one of my favorites. I postponed reading the last 2 installments of the Karp family adventures, because I was put off by the less than stellar reviews. I'm sorry I waited. I enjoy Mr. Tannenbaum's writing style, his characters are flawed, heroic, and colorful. As long as their is a Karp family to read about, I will remain a loyal reader."
211035,2,Outstanding realistic fiction!,Sawyers gives accounts of eager young men who are headstrong in their beliefs as they move through their fighting efforts against the other side. He blends his fictional and non-fictional characters with accounts of Civil War history that leave the reader feeling that he is right there with the Confederate and Union forces! This book is a must-read for all history buffs! Can't wait for the sequel!
211036,2,Good info at a good price,"This is a British book, so sometimes the vocabulary has a few minor ""issues,"" but for anyone with any interest in aerobatics it's quite clear.I found the book to be informative and useful. I just did a short aerobatic course in England and my instructor was the proofreader for this book.As you read the book, try to visualize the control inputs and the aircraft's attitude; it will help you.I am comfortable recommending this book and/or Les Horvath's book from the SSA. There are other aerobatic books, but very little that focusses on gliders. We have a number of energy management issues, and primacy says it would be better not to print power plane concepts on your brain first. I don't think you would regret buying this book.This book is cheaper in the US through Amazon than it is in the UK!"
211056,2,BBQ cover,Replacement for old BBQ cover. Exactly what I wanted. Priced right and arrived on time. Much better than available at local stores.
211129,2,Simply the Greatest!!,Stryper up and away were the most musically talented metal band of their time. I strongly urge everybody to go out and pick up this classic!! The guitar playing of Oz Fox and Michael Sweet is amazing. Its hard to believe Michael Sweet can play as well as he does considering his awesome vocals and songwriting ability. Just a pure classic!!!!
211148,2,Magic live,I admit that Queen Live Killers is an even better live album than Live Magic. But I don't understand why everybody dislikes Live Magic 'cause it is another great live album. Like only Queen made'em!Especially the close-to-medley in the second half of the recording. 6 or 7 great songs linked together in one Queen epic. Euphoric! The best performance of'em all is shown on Hammer To Fall.This is pure Queen live power from the first tune to the last. Cheers!
211184,2,Well worth reading! Adoption and child welfare issues.,"This book is excellent for anyone who is interested in child welfare and adoption issues. I would recommend it to anyone thinking of adopting thru the child welfare system. She includes stories from a range of families and presents issues that have impacted their lives and the adoption process. Stories from single parents, couples, lesbian/gays, disabled families are well-balanced. She touches on issues involved in adoption through the ""child welfare system"". Altho she is from Canada she includes issues from the US. Great insight."
211240,2,Basic Book,"This book is less of an in-depth look at the AVID software and more of an orientation to the systems and procedures of digital editing. It's well written and laid out - but if you're looking for more nuts and bolts about the editing software itself, this is not the best book."
211250,2,Queen at the BBC,This is a great supplement to the first two albums. This really lets people know what Queen sounded like live.. But not in a live venue. It's still a pity the 1974 & 1977 BBC Sessions still haven't been released.. They're quite as awesome too.
211298,2,"Not quite as good as Innuendo, but still a great album","""Innuendo"" was the last album released by Queen before Freddie Mercury died, and it was a fitting final album for him. ""Made In Heaven"" was released in 1995, 4 years after Freddie's death. Of the 11 songs on the album, 5 were previously released in other forms: ""Made In Heaven"" and ""I Was Born To Love You"" were originally on Freddie's ""Mr. Bad Guy"" album, and are included here with those same vocal tracks, but with Queen's instrumentation; ""My Life Has Been Saved"" was a B-side to ""Scandal"" from ""The Miracle"", but is slightly different here; ""Heaven For Everyone"" was originally recorded by Roger Taylor's band ""The Cross""; and ""Too Much Love Can Kill You"" was previously released on Brian May's ""Back To The Light"" album (with Brian on vocals). But even though not all of the material here is new, all of the material is very good, and it's a great album. Not quite as good of an ending as ""Innuendo"", but a very fine piece of work nonetheless."
211310,2,glam bam rock n roll,"what are you waiting for. rock n roll has been re-invented by one of the most under-rated bands in rock history. this cd is one for all cool people with real ear buds to buy and say i discovered a band with real balls to the wall sound. its like cheap trick meets the sex pistols, and oh yeah, all you alex harvey fans climb aboard for the rock n roll sensation. its sad that the radio does not reconize this band. its sound is a bang for a little buck,and a glam punk sound that wont let you down."
211316,2,Great for dogs big and small,"This leash is a miracle. We are on our 3rd dog but have used a leash like this for our last 2 dogs. We have had a cocker spanel, lab and the one we have right know our little Max a Terrier Mix. The lab we got when she was a puppy and ended up giving her back because we were not redy for a dog. This leash has nots and is worn out but is still a great leash. Max loves to run he can out run our golfcart which can go up to 25 m.p.h.So as you can see this is a great leash."
211340,2,one of the best thrillers ever written,"Kay Nolte Smith won a well deserved Edgard award with ""The Watcher"".The book is just wonderful, a lot of suspense, a smart and unusal plot and an interesting protagonist.I loved it."
211345,2,It's the sort of dumb sweet romance warms my heart. :),"It's predictable, it's a tat shallow but it's also entertaining,witty and damn sweet a book to read. Young,beautiful,intelligent,gutsy heroine(the endearing list goes on); Strong, handsome, capable, stubborn hero(the same endearing list goes on). Their tickling relationship,wonderful people around them who worships the heroine because she is just so wonderful, and proper vengeance to those hateful,worthless enemies ... a sure win formula with most of us isn't it? :) Just too good to be true. sigh ."
211360,2,Shop-Vac 6 Horse,"For an inexpensive shop vac, this does the trick, the hose is very flexible and does not pull out of the canister as in my experience the Sears model does. Light and easliy pulled, buy it and you will not be dissappointed."
211416,2,love these things,"This is the second pair of Feiyue shoes I've owned. These are martial arts shoes designed to offer a degree of protection while still allowing the foot to move through its natural range, so they are flexible and thus not as durable as running shoes, cross trainers, et cetera. They contour to the foot not support it, so don't buy them for support. If you need a shoe that offers limited support/protection and good grip while allowing the foot a natural range of motion, the Feiyue shoes are a great low cost option. For the price I don't know anything that tops them. I practice Jeet Kune Do and use the shoes on hard/rough sufaces when my feet are to tired to handle a workout."
211418,2,Must have book for kids of all ages - whether you like baseball or not.,"As an admitted father of two toddlers, book lover, history buff and baseball fan, my review may seem like the most biased you could read. Yes, I do love this book on many levels.But I have shared this book with children and adults of all ages -- many that care less about baseball, sports or history -- and all have been captivated by the illustrations and unbelievable level of detail Christopher Bing brought to this book.Indeed, it is ""copiously and faithfully illustrated"" by the author. Every time you pick up this book you will be rewarded for your attention: it is filled with interesting little images of ads, money and baseball-related items from the period.This book will surprise and delight you, again and again. Nice job, Mr. Bing. Very nice job."
211422,2,"Quick, easy, and no-mess solution to peeling garlic cloves.","If you buy refrigerated jars of chopped garlic because you are always in a hurry and can't face the thought of peeling fresh garlic, this garlic peeler is a terrific alternative to that.Nothing could be easier to use. Just open the plastic tube, take out the 5"" long sleeve, which feels like rubber, and pop an un-peeled garlic clove inside the sleeve. Roll the tube back and forth a few times with the palm of your hand, feeling the garlic, and then shake out a fully peeled garlic clove. The skin stays inside the sleeve. Rinse the sleeve or put it in the top rack of your dishwasher, and you are done--a whole garlic clove rubbed clean of dry, tissue-thin skin--no mess, no fuss.I have given at least a dozen of these as small gifts and stocking presents, and they are a perfect (and useful hostess present. Everyone loves them. I haven't had to buy a jar of refrigerated chopped garlic in the two years that I've had this gadget. n Mary Whipple"
211445,2,EXCELLENT,"OUTSTANDING BLACK GAY MOVIE, LOGO NEEDS TO BRING THIS TO THE NETWORK AS A SERIES AND ALSO NOAH'S ARC.. STORYLINE IS HONEST AND TRUE TO YOUNG GAY BLACK MEN."
211473,2,Creative genius,"Mr. G is a bad ass dude. Best part of the movie. I wanna meet with the creative genius, that was prolific enough to even think up this stuff, for lunch and pick his crazy brain!"
211482,2,Great Movie,"If you like the unusual creativity of Bob Fossey, you will love this film. Fantastic and talented dancers. Not for the conservative or narrowminded viewer."
211483,2,"Excellent performances, recording-remastering mediocre...","These recordings date from 1962 through 1964. The state-of-the art for analog was fully developed by then (see the fine RCA Living Stereo releases from the 1950's!), so my best guess as to the ""metallic"" sound of the piano is that it stems from a bad remaster/transfer job in 1991-2 and/or the use of 2nd or later generation tapes, or a bad recording to begin with... Truth be told, I have the original LPs that came as a boxed set containing all of LvB's piano music (incl. the concertos,etc.) and I am leaning toward the last possibility being the case here... the performances trump the sonics, and I'd not hesitate to recommend these versions."
211489,2,10 Little Indians...,"Oh my gosh... This is one of the most thrilling movies I have ever seen. The ending is probably the most unexpected twist in all of Moviedom for ages. I loved it, loved every minute of it."
211501,2,limits to growth,Although this book isn't completely accurate the underlying message is true. It is obvious to see that people like Julian Simon who believe that technology is going to save the day are wrong. I think this book explains that we as a society need to recognize our limits and try to live more harmoniously with our environment.
211503,2,WWE Unforgiven 02,"Wrestling wise,Unforgiven was not great but pretty good. Storyline wise it was like a bad South Park episode especially when they got to the H.L.A angle. The Best Matches on the were Triple H-RVD,Eddie Guerrero-Edge,Chris Benoit-Kurt Angle & The UnderTaker-Brock Lesner match even with the DQ ending.The rest were not great but pretty good. I give this event an 6 out of 10."
211528,2,Great Camcorder,"This thing rocks, the only negative is the motor noise, but it is only noticeable when you first get it, you hardley even hear it while playing the footage on a TV. Also glad Canon has kept using the same batteries, makes it easy to purchase more and a lot cheaper too. You can't go wrong with this camcorder."
211651,2,great cards,I've already bought these cards. Now I bought them for a friend and she liked them a lot. So great
211770,2,What a Limbsaver,Purchased this product after installing a shorter stock on a Mossberg 590A1. Original stock seemed too long then the new shorter youth stock seemed too short after getting hit in the head with recoil. Slipped this on and it extended the reach to the trigger about 2 inches....perfect! Recoil was much easier to take and it fits secuely around the stock with no slippage.
211791,2,This Review is on Updated Version,"If you are a Bowie fan, this is must reading. Pegg is extremely accurate, and his accounts of the songs Bowie has written and the stories about how the songs were recorded are fascinating. He does a great job tying Bowie's lyrics and music to places and times in Bowie's life, creating a full picture of all that was happening. The accounts of Bowie's tours and albums are accurate and excellent reading, very concise without being wordy or over the top. To get the complete picture of Bowie the entertainer buy this book. I have been a huge fan of Bowie since 1984 and this is the best book ever done on him."
211812,2,fun and interesting hypothesis,"A 4 star because I had fun and I discovered much information that I was previously unaware of. I do tend to ""buck"" when someone states a hypothesis as a fact and I also do enjoy when people are willing to ""think outside the box""."
211834,2,BUY THIS CD!!!,These guys are one of the best local bands around!!! I bought this cd and listened to it for a few weeks straight! IT IS AN AWSOME BUY!!!
211840,2,Great toy,"Bought this for my great niece who is only a few months old. So while a lot of play is not being had for it, it is a neat cuddle toy!"
211913,2,I like the watch,I really like this watch. It has numbers that are easy to read. I think it also looks nice with the blue background. It's a great watch for the price.
211938,2,The power of positive thinking....,Many of us seek to change our present behaviors and attitudes that we know are the result of the very difficult environment we grew up in but few find the strength courage and insight to accomplish the task.
212022,2,My daughter loves this!,My daughter loves this. It has been one of her favorite toys. She sleeps with it and feels protected with this plush toy. I would recommend and buy again. Shipped on time and exactly as described.
212023,2,Bright as hell!,"These lights are VERY VERY bright! When the brights are on, you can hear the engine bog down because the alternator is working hard to keep up! They do use more power than the standard 55/60W bulb, but that is expected.The brightness of these bulbs is very much affected by the clarity of your headlight lenses. For example, mine are that ugly faded yellow in a few spots, and you can tell that these bulbs are affected by it.I would very much so recommend these bulbs to anyone who needs a more clear and brighter road at night.. I have had them for about a month now and I am very pleased."
212024,2,Bunny Arrives for Easter !,"Just what I was looking for, can't find them in stores anymore. Arrived quickly. I have been giving my daughter a bunny for Easter since she was born...this was number 25. Boyd bunnies are the best."
212043,2,Uplifiting read,"Unlike the Mitford books, Gulley asks the question, what is faith without testing? The characters portrayed here ring true and earnest, similar to those in Katherine Valentine's Dorsetville series. Keep writing. I'll keep reading!"
212074,2,Projector Screen Border,"I really have no idea what this product is supposed to be for, but someone recommended it to use as a border on my projection screen. Worked like a charm. Easy to cut, easy to stick. Looks great."
212180,2,Hear Her...,"Finally the collection Helen Reddy always deserved of almost all her notable singles and a few rarities. Much more complete and savvy than Capitol's cursory survey we had to make do with so many years. Helen Reddy was one of the best spotters of hit material in the music biz and one of the best developers of raw material into hit material. With a great voice, a distinctive approach and always on key and assured, she surrounded herself with the best arrangers, musicians, producer and production values, giving Capitol hit after hit after hit after hit. You'll listen to this one over and over."
212269,2,My favorite bowls,I love everything about these bowls! The handles make it easy to keep your hands clean while mixing ingredients. They go in the dishwasher and come out looking great! The bowls have shown no signs of rusting or staining unlike other bowls I've used.
212274,2,DVD Review,"The player came in a timely manner and was appropiately packed. It has been very easy to connect to the television,cable and has been very simple to use. I am most pleased."
212280,2,Definitely worth the shelf space!,"I love this pan! I have the All-Clad stainless line, and bought this pan when my youngest daughter started to like grilled cheese sandwiches. You just can't cook more than one sandwich at a time in a regular fry pan. This pan has plenty of space to cook 4 sandwiches at a time, or 4 pieces of french toast, or 4 eggs... the list goes on and on.My dad came to visit, and was coerced into making pancakes. He had always used a square electric griddle at home, but he gave my griddle pan a try. He liked it so much I gave him one for Christmas! Once again, plenty of space to cook 4 pancakes at a time.The non-stick coating is durable, the food slips right off, and it is easy to wash. That is important, because this pan can't go into the dishwasher. It is also rather heavy, but since I just set it on the burner and cook, that isn't an issue either.Bottom line is that both my father and I are very happy to make room in our kitchens for this pan."
212311,2,Does the job and very good value,"Expectations and opinions always vary. I expected this bench to be fairly heavy and functional but not high end gym quality. After all it only cost a little less than $70. If I wanted gym quality I would have spent much more. This bench works just fine. I work out 4 days a week and use it for crunches and back exercies and it is always stable. Mine is sitting on carpet so I don't know if it would wobble on a flat surface. Some others complaied about the packaging, mine was perfectly fine. Another complained about a strong chemical smell, mine was a little strong out of the box but it went away after a few days an uses. In all this bench does what it is supposed to do for a really good price. My only suggestion is if you are fairly tall you may want to find a bench with a longer base. The base on this bench is short and I could see it lose stability while doing crunches. I am 5'10' and I don't have an issue but if you were 6'2' or taller it might wobble a bit."
212378,2,Great album,"This is one of the best Fabric releases I`ve listened to. The way Carl Craig mixes r&b tunes with a 4/4 baseline is incredible. The only miss in this set is the vocals from Carl, they give the album a real live sound, but they just don`t sound right with the tunes."
212394,2,"Inspiring, Informative, and Insightful!","Please let me join the lengthening parade and climb aboard the band wagon. I like this work. As to whether it is merely a pale reflection of Catton, Foote, et al, or if it is a plowing of new ground in Civil War work, only time will tell. I thought it was a bit pricey, though."
212459,2,I give this book two thumbs up!!!!!!!!!!!!!,When an old house is coming down it gave the BSC nightmares.Stoneybrook was built on top of a graveyard!That's what the BSC finds out.I really liked this book. I hope you will like it as much as I did! Victoria age 9
212467,2,The BEST Weezer album of all,"Out of the 4 Weezer albums PINKERTON is definately the best. They greated matured in sound without losing what we all love about them: their Pixie-influenced pop sound and humor.Like the Blue Album, PINKERTON starts off great with ""Tired of Sex,"" then procceds to rock you even more with great numbers like ""Why Bother?,"" ""Across the Sea,"" ""El Scorcho,"" and Pink Triangle. For me this is NIRVANA (the place not the band).For all those people who have only heard the bad Weezer that is the Green Album and MALADROIT I suggest you give them one more chance and listen to PINKERTON and the Blue Album"
212470,2,The Best and Greatest,"This is the best CD I have ever listened to ever in my life. When it first came out it wasnt the best selling CD in the world, and I have no idea why, but yea, you must must must must must get this CD! I love it so much, I listen to it every day wherever there is a CD player near me, theres always WEEZER. Pinkerton rocks and you have to get it or I will hunt you down, no, actually i wont, but yea, get it cuz it kix the tighest booty ever!"
212532,2,Very Powerful & Encouraging,I love this book. I've been in need of a healing and I know that I will get my breakthrough soon. This book keeps me encouraged and focued.
212635,2,Halloween Treat!,I purchased the Pixy Stix to give the small children a Halloween treat. (The kids loved them) I had several left over and I ate them while cleaning the house. Now I am wired and freaking out and I can't seem to find my keys. The house is very clean.
212687,2,Excellent conclusion to series,"I was impressed by Rocky Balboa. Excellent storyline about Rocky facing his inner demons. Some good messages about life and character values such as tenacity, indomitable will, never giving up, heart, self respect and everything else we have come to expect from Rocky. This is a great finally and the perfect example of why we love the Rocky character."
212706,2,"nice unit, little heavy","This will be a great unit to use in camp, but for hiking, I would prefer a lighter unit. The Katadyn arrived on time and was what I expected (except for the weight)."
212871,2,Breakfast With God by Duncan Banks,"This is a wonderful, intelligent, funny and inspirational devotion book. There is so much wisdom and deep thought packed into each page, that it is a book that you want to read over and over again. I pray that Duncan Banks has a second book in the offing because I will be first in line for a copy of it. There is no doubt in whom Duncan places his life, heart and service. It will give any reader a new insight to God and His love and desire for your life. This book is an excellent book to give to anyone and you truly get more than your money's worth. Thanks Duncan Banks for sharing!"
213026,2,I can't stop listening to this cd!,"I got this cd a couple of year ago and kind of just tossed it aside, but after seeing the Velvet Rope Tour on HBO, I brought it out again. I absoulutely love it now. It is great to hear my favorite songs on one cd. I especially love the older songs because the remind me of the time when I was younger. This cd is a wise purchase for those who are Janet Jackson lovers, but don't want to buy all of her older cd's."
213067,2,From Someone Who Knows Absolutely Nothing About Computers...,"I find this book an easy read enabling me to learn a whole lot about the internet and media today. The book is also very informative providing many references and illustrated graphs and charts. And again, from an older student's perspective and who also is not computer savy, I enjoy their glossary of terms in the back in addition to the feature allowing one to take quizzes online at their website."
213074,2,Every bit as gripping as the best adventure fiction,"Here's another true-life thriller of rescue at sea: this taking place in 1978 when a blizzard trapped a tanker off the Massachusetts coast, a rescuing Coast Guard ship found itself in equal danger, and a pilot boat captain went to the rescue of both. Dozens of interviews and audiotape recordings of the rescue blend with first-person accounts and research to make Ten Hours Until Dawn: The True Story Of Heroism And Tragedy Aboard The Can Do every bit as gripping as the best adventure fiction."
213076,2,great and funny ay to learn to skate,"this is a great video to learn to skate. It shows you how to, ollie ,180 ollie,pop shoveites,kickflips,and heelflips. Next to the mini ramps it tells u how to drop in and rock to fakie.I am a ten year old boy who can do all these tricks but heelflips."
213091,2,good for pull ups,these are nice since my two year old is potty training. She can put them on herself and they make her feel like a big girl. The one drawback I have with them is they're kind of loose around the leg area and sometimes she makes a poopy mess so the leg area moves and gets feces on her clothes (but this is not the case with every BM she has in them). A good value with amazon mom and coupon codes!
213103,2,What happens in Paris...,"Paris, Je T'aime is a series of seemingly unrelated vignettes, each about 5 minutes long. As the film progresses, connections begin to build. This is a movie about Paris and the way this enigmatic, iconic city effects those who live there or visit, and each of the short segments has a charm of its own. Happy or sad, tragic or hopeful, these characters, whom we have barely enough time to know, make their humanity manifest in all the most important ways. The scenic elements are fantastic, setting mood, and each vignette is a little bit of sweetness or sorrow. Lovely, thought provoking piece of cinema."
213212,2,Very convenient for road trips,"Love this power supply! It's compact, light and very easy to use. It has been a life saver (job-saver?) for road trips that have gone a little long. The compact size and relatively long cord make it easy to place nearly anywhere in the car without taking up valuable foot space or cargo room."
213228,2,One of my favs,What can I say? It's Sheryl Crow. Edgy. Fun. Powerful. Lyrical. Musically talented and inspirational. I like her music and love it when it comes back up on shuffle.
213240,2,Pretty!,"I generally do not wear nude shades on my nails and feet, however, this is pretty for the natural look. You do have to put several coats (I used 5) of the polish on for it to give you the best coverage, but overall I thought it was pretty."
213249,2,madness,excellent - many students in my classroom have read and enjoyed this book - perfect for a unit on early America or tying in with the Potter craze
213299,2,AWSOME TEAR-JERKER MOVIE!,"Based on real life events of an girl's unfortunate family living circumstances. The outcome for her in the end is both victorious for her education, and unfortunate concerning her family situation. I'm not going to give it all away, but don't make the mistake of overlooking this movie. It will have you thinking twice about some of the things we all take for granted in life..."
213302,2,Great tasting and not too salty,"These anchovies have that delicate taste and not too salty at all.... perfect....I have tried other brands but nothing compares to this....Taking it out of the jar is tricky, but when you have the right tool ( Like the corn on the cob pins ) it seems to come out easy...."
213316,2,What Goes On,"Most people get their initiation to the VU with the banana peel disc. That is an amazing piece of work especially considering the time as there was nothing like that album. I'm waiting for the man describes the scoring process perfectly and (amazingly) as a slick rock cut.This album, to me, is the best of the VU albums. The sonic sound of What Goes On cannot be duplicated and should be played VERY LOUD. I think the suite in the middle beginning at Pale Blue Eyes and then ending with I'm Set Free is a very personal statement by Reed. With the track I'm Set Free taking on a cathartic feel.Of course, all of their stuff was amazing but this one knocks me out and ranks up there in my all time top 10."
213366,2,Surprisingly addictive.,"This book caught me off guard,I was not expecting it in journal form. However, the storytelling was magnificant and I soon felt like I couldnt wait for the next page or the next chapter to begin. If you buy this book do not be put off by it's diary approach, push on to the end for long before you get there you will be hooked."
213373,2,good value,"I have bought several of these and it was a good price. What it doesn't mention is that the plug is flat to fit behind dressers, etc, which is very convenient."
213381,2,I'm happy with them,"As I stated in a different review, the only difference between this model and the fademasters is the top guide. It's thicker on this model, which is prolly meant to be used daily and with the guide combs. If you want to save some money, you can buy whichever has the lowest price and just the top guide of the other. Switching them out will get old quick due to the time involved with getting the right adjustments. I bought both cuz the convenience of switching clippers is worth it. I'd definitely recommend this product"
213383,2,excellent value,"Easy to put together has inside bottom drawer I opted not to install as it sits in the middle of the lower shelf storage and wastes alot of space, but it is a georgous piece for the price"
213454,2,Many threads woven together,"This book is a wonderful combination of story lines.It's a romance, of course, but with twists.It's the story of a technological paradigm shift in an era when such changes weren't always appreciated.It's a tale of skulduggery, honor and redemption.And underneath it all is a thread of hope for the capacities of human growth that makes this story very contemporary, though it's set a century ago.It's a light, entertaining read, with enough of the unexpected to keep the pages turning well into the night."
213485,2,It's THE book!,"I have read books of same level, but still I can't find a winner. It's not perfect, it has it's faults and the tarnishing fame but it's still the number ONE. It's a world of it's own. A place to go when it's too difficult to live... (I ain't having any thoughts of self destruction, but that's how I feel about the saga!) We all need a hide out - a place to be alone, quiet - and here it is. Thank you J.R.R.Tolkien... You are not a god and never will, but you deliver a redemption."
213534,2,"Excellent Book, but disturbing end.",The book had a great storyline. Bradbury draws you into the characters. Bradbury takes you on a series of events that the family goes through. The only flaw in the book was the ending. Other than that the book was great.
213541,2,Essential Equipment,I purchased these as I quite often stay up later than my wife and we also have a young daughter. I can watch TV without disturbing them. The Sennheisers have a comfortable fit and great sound. Setting them up was a breeze although I had to alter the output settings of my Home Theatre and of my Playstation. Once I had done that I was all go! Hard to imagine how I got on before. I consider them to be great value for money.
213629,2,Fantastic Sleeper Hit!,"My son (three-years-old) has started reciting the excellent rhymes from memory. It makes me laugh every time, and I like that I enjoy the book as much as he does. The animals are fun to read in different voices. We discuss the winter weather, what each animal is, and why bears have to sleep so much. My favorite children's book that's not considered a classic."
213654,2,Battery Charger,This Battery Charger does not take long to Charge the battery's and only need this one Charger to Charge 9.6 to 18 volt battery's and did not cost a lot
213715,2,No Headphone Jack!!!,"I've had these for about one month and I can say I'm very happy.They sound crisp & clear and the adjustable bass on the subwoofer is a nice touch.My only complaint, and reason for writing this review, is you warn you that there is no Headphone jack anywhere on these speakers. Luckily most computers come with their own Headphone out jacks, but that still doesn't make up for the Creative lack of extra outputs."
213736,2,For ROCK lovers...,"If you are an emo freak then Louder Now will not be as appealing as Tell All Your Friends or Where You Want To Be, but toughin up. This album catches all of the emotion when it comes the the melodies that the last two have. The title Louder Now describes the music. I highly recomend it."
213805,2,And fun to play with too!,"I needed this for an organic chemistry class, but wanted the set to play with too. Amazon had a better price than the bookstore, and it qualified for the super saver shipping since the kit is distributed by a publishing house.The connectors are sometimes hard to get apart once you have constructed a molecule, but there is a handy tool to help.The molecules and connectors are made from a good quality, dense plastic and stand up to some stretching and bending. The booklet that comes with the set is also a helpful in trying to explain some of the basics of organic chemistry."
213865,2,The Best for Toddlers.,"This was my children's favorite book when they were toddler/preschoolers. I am now buying it for all my grandchildren. Pages for everyone. Trucks, farm, zoo, colors, seasons, babies all labeled individually with their name. When they are at the stage where they are repeating the name for everything this is what they liked to look through. Each child had their favorite page that we had to stop and study."
213903,2,R.I.P. Dimebag Darrell,"The five stars isn't for this album, but for Dimebag. He was amazing and influenced and brought joy to tons of people. He wont be forgotten soon. This is rather shocking and sad news."
213962,2,CAPTIVATING,"Despite a twist of almost unbearable sadness and grief within the twisty plot of this enchanting thriller, this movie is a perfect family adventure, filled with thrills, joys, humor, fantasy, absolutely amazing special effects and some wondrous performances from all involved. Yes, the Indian/Egyptian tomb sequences are eerily reminiscent of The Temple Of Doom, but it hardly matters. Sherlock Holmes, here seen in his youth, is apparently both a super-sleuth and a dashing young swashbuckler. Mix into this mystery wonderfully imaginative, and horrific, hallucinations brought on by poison darts; flying machines; a sweet romance, and the answers to all of your questions regarding Holmes' character as a man, and you have yourself one dandy entertainment as directed by Barry Levinson. It is a shame that this film was not a bigger hit, it deserved to be, and had it been, we would have finally been treated to the sequel this movie so richly deserved."
214078,2,Microsoft Office Home and Student,"We bought this product because my kids needed the powerpoint function to create powerpoints for their class requirements. They have had so much fun, and it is very impressive. They are eager to compile knowledge so that the powerpoint can begin to take form!"
214138,2,inexpensive and easy to use,"had to replace the home office version on my laptop and thiswas the a great investment. no problems loaded easily, runsgreat."
214182,2,Doom3!!! :),"i have played the doom3 alpha test demo that has ben leaked on tha internet and belive me the graphics own!!! BIGTIME!!! the frame rate is kinda bad,but that is only because of a real early alpha, final version will be much better.I got a 1.2ghz athlon, gf3 ti200 64MB, 512MB DDR (2100) RAM!!!i know alot of u wont even beleive me but i got screen shots for proof that i have it :)p.s. i dont check these reviews often!!! just look around hard enough on tha internet and u will find it :)"
214201,2,SEXY AND VERY ROMANTIC,"Great story that I couldn't put it down. Susan write it like the way it is from describing sexy scenes to normal everyday language. Funny, romantic and very, very sexy!! Highly recommend it!!!"
214280,2,Dust,"Good story and makes you think, keeps you thinking what might happen but also has a feeling of sadness throughout the story."
214400,2,Flippin` Amazing,"If you love electronic music and desire an innovative new treasure, Polmo Polpo's The Science of Breath is essential. Here is gorgeously rich ambience beyond comparison. Rottura and Riva are the most stunning spots in this aural, deep-sea thicket brimming with diamonds. Each song spins subtle yet deep ambient, melodic rhythms and textures. Sandro Perri possesses incredible talent, and it clearly shines on this release. New ethereal tethers have been struck here in ways that throb alongside soul and spirit - something most new music falls desperately short of. Truly numinous, I cannot praise this work highly enough. Excellent."
214546,2,Great Holocaust Memoir,"What separates this book from the other holocaust books is that it does a great job of focusing on life AFTER the holocaust. Kitty Hart spends time in displaced persons camps in Europe, then settles in England only to face a new set of challenges. Her return trip to Auchwitz allows her an opportunity to reflect on life in the death camp, but from the perspective an older individual who can comment on how life in the camp has affected her adult life.Return to Auchwitz is one of the better holocaust books I have ever read, written by a very brave and admirable woman."
214598,2,Something new to sink your teeth into!!!,"If you are looking for a ""sound"" that is unique and not another ""cookie-cutter"" hybrid band, check out this release by Atomship. As other reviewers have hinted, it's real hard to pin this band down....they have crafted an incredible first release that will appeal to fan's of A Perfect Circle, Acroma (another band with an excellent first release), Lo-Pro, and Mad At Gravity. There are even hints of prog-metal that would find a home with any metal fan. Some lyrics are dark and make you sit back and think, the music explodes and makes you take notice. The musicianship is incredible, the drummer plays like there is no tomorrow. Pay attention to this band, I think they will be around for a long time and I'm sure they will create a name for themselves. Thanks Atomship, this release is a real mind f**k!!!!!!"
214601,2,At your own risk!,"I have always admired Jeanette Winterson. The Passion is one of my favorite novels. I had been anticipating the release of this new novel, for it focuses on cyberspace.Ali, an e-mail writer, has prepared a game for you. You can enter the realm of virtual reality and go everywhere you want and do anything you want to do. However, you also risk discovering things about yourself that you may not have wanted. Like all Winterson's previous novels, it has a surreal approach to romance. Also, there is the ambiguity of sexual preference and/or identity. Still, the risk is worth taking. This is a fabulous novel. The magical realism is there! Winterson has never let me down! Read it, at your own risk!"
214653,2,Nice watch,Great Timex. Dependably watch . Just what we needed. We bought one before and it lasted quite a while. Would buy it again.
214658,2,"Satisfying ""Sandman""","When a middle-age freelance travel writer is diagnosed with a crippling disease, he begins toquestion everything. The author does a fine job of showing the protagonist's emotionalturmoil -- one minute he's fine, the next he's contemplating taking his life. The reader iskept in suspense until the very last page. Occasionally raw but always entertaining. A nice effort from a first-time novelist."
214680,2,Old-fashioned Christmas shows I grew up on.,This one is great for the whole family to watch. You can't haveChristmas without good old St. Nick. That almost happened in this classic. Santa feels there is no more Christmas spirit left in the world. So he decides not to make his yearly ride delivering toys to the world's children. Mrs. Claus and two clever elves set out on a journey to rekindle the Christmas spirit in us all. The two real stars in this timeless classic are the Meiser brothers. Heat Meiser and Snow Meiser show off their talents for Mrs. Claus with unforgettable musical numbers. A must-see for anyone.
214687,2,Great DVD Bad Quality,"Allright Metallifans, lets get straight to the point. This is a good video but as the box says the quality ain't that happening.It contains bootleg footage of shows when they were a young band with only 1 CD out, Kill Em All, footage fom Day at the Green 85, shows from the ride the lightning tour in 85, and shows in 86 supporting Ozzy. Kill em all tour songs are:Metal MilitiaSeek and DestroyDay at the Green songs are:For Whom the Bell Tolls(This is the only song on here with good quality.There is a kickass bass solo before this song.)Ride the Lightning Tour songs are:Four HorsemenFade to BlackMaster of Puppets tour Supporting Ozzy songs are:WhiplashMaster of PuppetsAm I EvilCreeping DeathSanitariumDamage INCThere is also footage of the of the band getting drunk, having interviews, messin' around backstage, and some other kickass bass solos.This is the best tribute to Cliff possible.He would be proud."
214688,2,Begs for a sequel,"Excellent movie, although it takes a little dramatic license with the truth. (For example, the genesis of MS-DOS was quite different in real life. IBM approached Gates to buy BASIC, not an operating system. Gates referred IBM to Gary Kildall's CP/M for an OS; only when Kildall blew them off did Gates buy DOS and license it to IBM). Still, beautiful characterizations by Hall and Wyle, and outstanding performances by John Di Maggio and Joey Slotnick as Ballmer and Woz. A most entertaining vid, if not entirely accurate.I hope that TNT does a sequel about Andreesen, Barksdale, Clark, and Gates, featuring the rise of Netscape and the war with Microsoft."
214827,2,Definitely Album of the Year,"This probably is one of my favorite albums of all time too. The sound and the way it was all put together is just incredible. I also like At the Drive-in and Sparta as well, but I think The Mars Volta is the best thing to come out of this circle of musicians. I highly recommend this album. It is a shame that Jeremy Ward (sound manipulator) died. Hopefully they can find a adequate replacement and make another album like this one."
214835,2,A Keeper,My HP scanner went out and I got the Epson as a replacement. The Photo version comes with a film/slide attachment which seems to work great. The scanner is easy to use and very accurate. The only beef is no on/off switch.
214948,2,Best in a long time,"This is a crip, clear and well produced CD which gives you Neil's music for what he is. A songwriter. The song lyrics will make you smile, make you think, and some will break your heart. It is not ""get up and dance"" music, and if that's what your expecting you'll be dissapointed. What it is however is some of the best pieces he has written in years. You will get the clarity of Neil playing acoustic guitar, the sound of fingers moving over frets, and remarkable vocals.It is very different from many of his past works, but different can be a good thing. This is a great thing and well worth buying."
214953,2,Thanks Dane you almost got me killed!!!!,"OK to say this cd/dvd is funny would be the understatement of the year. I got it in the mail on my lunch break. stupid me puts it on in the car on the way back to work. Needless to say I laughed so hard I started crying, couldn't see and almost ran into oncoming traffic. Every one around me was like ""ummm...Hello?????"". Since then I have shown the DVD to everyone I know, and I think they have a new favorite comic! If you like funny...BUY THIS CD/DVD!!!!!!!it is great to be able to have the DVD at home, and keep the CD in the car(if you are careful of course)"
214987,2,A Musical Masterpiece!,"I was at Barns and Nobles book store when I first discovered ""The Time Machine"". I had enough money to buy one CD and being a big fan of movie scores I had a lot to pick from. This caught my eye, perhaps because of the cover or who knows what. When I listened to the samples, I instantly knew it was the one I wanted.This CD is filled with music ranging from gorgeous to heartpounding. Even though I had never seen the movie, almost instantly I could guess at the story and some of it was quite close when I did see it (GEt the DVD, it's a great film).My favorites are Emma, Eloi, the Master, What If?, and Godspeed.This is for sure, the one CD I have no complaints about whatsoever. If you get this CD You'll find a song for everyone!"
215123,2,dazed and confused was not funny,"this one is though. yes it's dumb, it's a stoner film. the jokes will make you laugh. i was telling a co-worker about it, glad i remembered the name. i don't know who in 2010 is reading this thinking to buy it. so this is more for the ones who have already seen. but it is some good times, can't wait to see it again soon. if you haven't already, it's worth your time. THEY'RE KINGERS MAN"
215129,2,Brought Back Memories,"There's nothing like revisiting old memories. This was exactly what this DVD did for me.I can still hear my DI's telling me to ""Never quit and to never give up"". I still remember the first time I met my DI's in our SquadBay. Not the mention the fear I felt once I got off the bus at MCRD-SD. You can't go into Boot Camp all over again, but this is the closest you'll ever get to it. God Bless the creators of this film, for letting a Devil Dog revisit his old memories."
215131,2,Hello Kitty meets Schrodinger's cat,"This is admittedly a strange format for a quantum mechanics book. However, if you do skip over the cartoons you do find a lot of mathematical steps and insights more conventional books do not bother pointing out. Many students learn the mathematical underpinnings of QM as a bunch of symbol manipulating tricks. This book delves into the math and provides the rationale for much of those hitherto mysterious steps.I give the book four stars as the authors' usage of cartoons is often annoying and juvenile. Those who worked on the books could have used this unusual format to target a mature audience if the cartoon characters did indeed provide insightful commentary - which they often did not."
215177,2,keeping this for the rest of my life here!!!,"I absolutely love this book. I am a Christian that is on fire for God and even this sparked a new fire, gave me new truth and helped me see what the Lord wants for us right now. As soon as I got this book, I started witnessing with it, esp. those that say they live for God, but are still living in the world. Beautiful book. Must share and must keep!!! Fabulous. I didn't even need to get past pg 100 for me to decide I was keeping this one :D I take it with me to read when I have any spare moment! Glory be to God. I am thankful for His final warning given through this book and allowing me to read it. Knowing more about what He wants for us makes it more of a reality to me and made me that much happier! :D"
215221,2,Very nice puzzle game !!!,I bought this game for my son. He likes to play it. Small characters are the only minus in that game.
215244,2,Very cute!!,"My toddler loves to store her My Little Pony's in this bag. I love the fact that all the little pieces are picked up and stored in a secure place where my infant can not get to them. The outside of the bag is very cute, the zipper has withstood lots and lots of zipping and unzipping, and the pink is a very pretty bright color.I would definitely buy this item again!"
215256,2,Spellbinding!,"I was not in any way prepared for the power this recording has. It starts and grabs you and carrys you to levels of harrowing depth, tearing you to pieces by the end! It is not only the settings of Langston Hughes which Mr. Gordon has set so brilliantly, paying attention to every nuance and detail of the poems, but the riveting, totally committed performances which leap out from this live performance and wrap their hands around your throat. I only wish I were there at the actual event. The orchestrations seem to play a role all their own, from the plucking of the strings in ""In Time Of Silver Rain,"" to the horrifying harmonics sizzling throughout ""Song For A Dark Girl,"" which is maybe one of the most upsetting songs I have ever heard, and Jonita Lattimore couldn't possibly serve it better. The world is a better place with this recording in it. It will change your life. Buy it!!!"
215270,2,Expedition's best model yet,"I purchased this watch a few weeks ago to replace an old Expedition i lost. Im a soldier in Afghanistan right now so this is actually the third Expedition watch i go through since ive been in Country due to the dirt and sweat it endures. So far this is my favorite. The one i had before i found to be too slim and was difficult to see the numbers but this one is a perfect size, not too big and not too small and has the glow in the dark feature which i love. not to mention it matches my Camouflage, and seems it will last longer than the older thinner and flimsier ones ive owned in the past. Definitely a good buy."
215358,2,"Las Vegas, De Niro, Pecsi....Whats not to love?","A great movie and a great DVD. Other than Goodfellas, this movie is tops. The acting is great, with unexpected great performances from Sharon Stone and James Woods. Just wish they offered a Pan & Scan version."
215432,2,The best,"I must only shortly state that this must be the best recording ever made of this opera. It is the best, it is a musical wonder."
215459,2,Awesome combonation!,"I have always been skeptical of wireless, but this set from LogiTech has changed me! I had bought a Microsoft Optical Blue wireless and was less than satisfied after using it for several weeks. I finally found many many user recommendations for the Logitech MX700 Wireless mouse from Gamers which I am. I gotta say that I'm very happy. I've used this now for a while and can't imagine going back to my corded devices. The keyboard has many cool buttons that are very useful if you use IE or they can all be customized. The software it comes with has given me no problems and games play great. Get one!"
215469,2,Unfinished Sympathy,"Maybe the best song of last century, this is your first real chance to have the original music video for this masterpiece: ""Unfinished Sympathy"", brilliantly singed by Shara Nelson.You want extra features? Visit their website, choose and download the pdf artwork and customize your dvd box. Pretty cool. And check their new single online too. It's great."
215500,2,great toy-- fun and educational,"My 9 month-old daughter just received this as a Christmas gift- what a great toy! Right now she just likes to spin it in it's base and watch the lights and listen to the music. Later, we can flip the switch and she'll hear letter names and sounds. Eventually, we'll take it out of the base and she can chase it around the floor. I'm really impressed with this toy- if I had seen it earlier, Santa would have brought it-- luckily, my daughter's godfather brought it instead!"
215567,2,Just what I wanted,Great hat. Can't wait to wear it with my military outfit or just with casual t-shirt and jeans. I would totally recommend it.
215626,2,dvd,I havent see this movie in years. it was great to find and was sent promptly. it was great family time to watch this movie and eat popcorn
215708,2,Why I Love this Book but Hate Its Author,"The book's better than anything I've read this year, the dude's probably a genius, and according to two friends he's supposedly dating Nora Jones."
215717,2,The best book on healing with crystals,"This is a great book! Thoutfully ordered, thorough and very well presented with great photography. I like its holistic approach. It is my bible for healing with crystals and I highly recommend it to beginners as well as professionals! Thank you!"
215804,2,Pet hair vs hardwood,"We have three cats and one dog and although we love our hardwood floors (and our cats), it's been a constant battle to keep the pet hair cleaned from the wood. The Swiffer Sweeper Vac has won the battle for us! It easily picks up all the stray pet hair. I use an old toothbrush to clean off the filter and all the stray hair goes right into the trash. Love this product!"
215810,2,GOOD PRODUCT,"I put it in the kitchen and used it almost everyday. It's kind of powerful consider the size, also very light and convenient."
215822,2,"Another Example of ""Age Ain't Nothing But a Number""","Actually I gave 4.5 Stars. When I listened to this debut for the first time,I really doubted whether she was only 14 years old,cuz Monica's vocal showed mature talent indeed...I like every track in the album, which always lets me feel so comfortable...A pretty good work of modern R&B;!BTW,I think that Monica should leave Missy,which maybe is the most important thing for her..."
215834,2,Perfect!,"I absolutely love this book. I read it while on vacation and couldn't stop laughing out loud. My cousin made me promise to let her read it next. lol Anyway, I loved the dark and handsome Ben. I loved the humorous dialogue and the wonderful characters. So modern and...well..just wonderful. I could relate to Sofia on so many levels and yet it was nice to have her be a little wild and spontaneous. I would definately recommend this to anyone who wants to start reading romances, or even to those readers who love Fabio novels!"
215851,2,Fast Service and a Fast Love for this CD,"For Joni Mitchell fans, do I have to even nod in the affirmative that this is an Essential addition to the studoo albums? Putting it simply: some of the live versions are, believe it or not, stronger than the well known versions: cases in point: CACTUS TREE, ALL I WANT, COLD BLUE STEEL AND SWEET FIRE; on and on.Her voice has dropped maybe a half octave - experts correct me if I'm wrong - so something like COLD BLUE STEEL... and CASE OF YOU are really.....steamy. Not to mention that the rock and roll road, by the mid-70s, only strengthened her singing, dynamic range and resonant tremolo, more than intact.Would have loved a few more in-concert photos but...I'm still recovering from the ""new"" CACTUS TREE. From that JM album nobody talks about. Well, hopefully they did/do after auditioning this set.Joni!!!!!"
215909,2,Hamilton Rocks,I Have listened to this album at least 100 times. It definately has the beat for a good time.
215934,2,awesome cd,"This is a really great cd. All of girl repellent's songs are extremely catchy and has a great tune to it. When you listen to this cd, you cant help but sing along. I highly recommed this cd to anyone that likes pop-punk."
216147,2,Different.... loved it!,"I really loved this book. At first, it was hard to get into based on the style of switching back and forth between characters and trying to piece together the intial time lines. However, once you got past the first couple of chapters and became familiar with the style, the book was great. I found it captivating, intriguing and enjoyable. I couldn't wait to find out what happened next. A great love story, with a concept of time travel, that left me wanting more..."
216234,2,Battle Royal - Japanese Film - Non Animi,"If you are lucky enough to see this film in non cartoon form with proper subtitles you are extreamly lucky, i thought this film was banned world wide except Japan of course. Its a film about a class of 40 students who are forced to kill eachother. Battle Royal or (BR) is in a sick way a game. each student is given a necklace that they can not remove and also has a detonator, each student is also given a random weapon. now hers the sick part, in 3 days all the neclaces will detonate unless 39 students are dead with one survivor. the survivor is then the !!WINNER!! nice eh?, a movie well worth a watch to see the crazyness of japanese story writers"
216250,2,Good product. Inadequate installation instructions.,"The instructions supplied with this spa cover lift are minimal and difficult to follow. Video instructions were provided by the seller, but skipped the most difficult parts of the installation. Nevertheless, the cover, once installed, works well."
216369,2,Does its job. Had no problems securely attaching.,"I've seen some comments by people claiming to have trouble attaching cables to these KVMs. I had no such issues with this. Make sure you have the nuts screwed in on either side of the receptacle, and that they don't come out when you're removing the cables.I deducted one star from ease-of-use because the thumb screws are a bit awkward to turn with your fingers, being right next to the big, bulky cable boot."
216390,2,Good little case -- does the job.,"After a month of use my harp case doesn't show any wear, there are no tears in the fabric or problems. The outside pocket is large enough to hold my metronome & tuner with tuning wrench. The interior has enough room to tuck two harp books. I'd love for this case to have some personality, it's basic black with nothing to distinguish it, but it does the job."
216430,2,Delicious raw food bar,"These bars are made from dates, pistachios, sesame seeds and poppy seeds and the taste reminds me of the filling used in poppy seed pastry. Rich tasting and filling. Each bar is about 200 calories, so it's not a low calorie snack, but it has 6 grams of fiber and 6 grams of protein, and is high in calcium, so to me at least, it's worth the calories. Makes a great snack or possibly even a meal replacement."
216514,2,Love it...,I love this DVD... This is what Tenacious D is all about. Gotta love it...or be very disturbed by it.
216579,2,Tasty bars.,"I have tried sooo many bars.... but now I can stop looking, because I found a winner with these. What a great flavor. I like the almond better than the peanut butter, but they are both excellent. The texture stays great, even after getting smashed up in the bottom of a tote bag! Good stuff. And gluten-free, too."
216625,2,"Peggy near her peak, with Barbour","These sides were recorded for (non-Capitol) transcriptions in the late 1940s, with Peg relaxed and swinging on some familiar standards; well worth the modest price for any Lee fan."
216639,2,very good game,"This game excited me so much i bought a game boy ds. This game started off fantastically but after i beat it i got very bored with it. Some stars are very boring and confusing to obtain. The new stars on the game are no very fun to get. They mostly involve collected 5 silver stars(which is lame because it is 2 much like collecting red coins)or hitting a switch and running to the star fast enough when it appears. But i really loved the mario on the 64 and the new charecters(yoshi,luigi,wario) are fun to play as. But this is basically the same game as the n64 and if u collected all the stars earlier you will find it boring to do the same again. 4/5."
216644,2,"Great Graphics, not the same","Super Mario 64 is based in the oringinal Super Mario for Nintendo 64. It's not easy using the DS controls and the touch screen on this game. The Graphics are 1o* better than the oringinal and you can be Luigi, Wario, and Yoshi in addition to the oringinal. Overall, it's a great game but just isn't the same."
216662,2,How Computers Work Review,"Great book for information concerning the computer and the technology connected to it. However, it is not for a beginner or novice individual just starting out with a computer."
216733,2,Really loved it!,Beautiful effects; really cool story line. The animators outdid themselves - and the actors voicing the parts are awesome! Highly recommend.
216740,2,May be a little scary for young kids,"My 5 year old daughter and I loved this movie. The characters were well written and as usual, Disney is great about adding some adult humor to keep it interesting. One word of caution - I was glad that I did not bring my younger daughter, as I believe some of the bear attack scenes may be scary for children under 4."
216745,2,Love it! Thanks,We love this sweet little black kitty which reminds us of our black kitty who has gone to heaven.We received it right away and in good condition.Thank you!
216746,2,"Large capacity, stays hot all day",This product is great. It holds a venti plus a grande coffee from Starbucks and keeps it hot all day even on especially cold days. Great for traveling on the road when it will be a long while until you come across another Starbucks.
216750,2,BUY THIS NOW!,FANTASTIC! One of the best CDs I own! The bluesy soul of this album will keep you wanting more! Phenomenal artist!
216835,2,great product,The helmet and pads are really cute. My son loves Spiderman and so they were a perfect fit. The helmet is comfortable and fits well. I would recommended this product.
216871,2,Very nice cable. Worth the money.,Arrived today actually 1 day earlier then I thought. I immediately hooked it up and the picture was great. Using s-video before on my PS2 it was exactly what I expected. Now im going to purchase the fiber-optic cable for my surround sound system. The price is also better then what I expected compared to some of the other monster cables.
216909,2,EXCELLENT!!!!!,"311 rips it up again with 97's ""Transistor"". 311 is my favorite band but I gave it 4 stars because it would've been better with more raps. It had a little too much reggae which got a little annoying but songs like: ""Galaxy"", ""Beautiful Disaster"", ""Star Shines"", and ""The Continous Life"" REALLY rocked this CD. This is a complete must have!!!"
216911,2,"Mostly good fun, needs paddle too!","The classic atari games are wonderful and easy to play for those that require a joystick, but for Breakout, Circus Atari, the ones you use a paddle for with the old 2600 system, you simply can't control the stick. It's just too frustrating! Adventure, Asteroids, etc, are great!"
216965,2,Beautiful. Haunting. Mystical. Not a 'story'; a vision.,"This is a haunting, beautiful movie. If one wants story lines and the typical American movie, forget ""House Made of Dawn"". Littlebird is a spiritual, mystical man, totally out of touch with 'white man's life' but thrown into it. His chanting is the best, most powerful, most entrancing I have ever heard. Total feeling. I only wish I could find a recording by him."
217015,2,So much better!,I like the SP better than the other gameboys because it's smaller you can even fit it in the your pocket. You also don't need light. While I was playing gameboy color the screen was too dark and I couldn't see but with the SP the light is already in there. It's so cute too. I also like the new colors. Any child will be happy with this present for birthdays or christmas!
217032,2,Must Have for the WIccan/Goddess,"I love this CD. It is so difficult to find good songs which can be used for ritual or even just to connect with the Goddess. This is a fantastic one. I sing along with it no matter where I have it playing. The songs are simple, yet moving. I lent it to a friend and I have not missed a CD before, I can't wait to get it back. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT."
217048,2,Light in the darness that has become,"I have been listening to Taproot for quite some time now, and this is their best release to date. It features heartfelt lyrics with a soundscape to amplify them. This album is however, an acquired taste. Stephen's voice is original in every sense of the word. It has somewhat of a manic depressant feel, alternating between soft choruses, and armaggedon. As though, the more he thinks about the lyrics, the more pronounced and emotive they become. He paints through music, the tapestry of his soul. My favorite song on the CD is ""Breathe"". It gave me chills the first time I heard it. Maybe due to the fact it was exactly what I was feeling, but could never have expressed it that well. In short, buy this CD. It may very well be the equivalent to much needed oasis in the desert music has become."
217053,2,No Problem with Leaks,"I've been using these bags for about 4 months now. They're great - it's easy to get milk in and out of them and they store milk very compactly.A couple of other reviewers have mentioned trouble with leaking - I haven't had any. I put a fairly small amount of milk in each bag (100 ml) so that I'm not faced with the dilemma of a half-finished bottle when I come home. I keep the bags in plastic tubs to keep them organized by date and prevent them from getting damaged when rummaging around in the freezer.I would second the advice not to rely on the measurements on the bag. It's easiest to pump into bottles, then divvy up into bags when you get home."
217106,2,A Classic!!,"I discovered this book at a used booksale, and since I love stories about the west and Indians, I bought it. And once I started to read it, I couldn't put it down! I even thought of the characters during the day until I could get back to the book! I could even picture them-he was very handsome!! I also read Part 2 of the series, and just now I'm going to start reading the 3rd Part Red Bird! Even though parts are sad and made me almost cry, the happiness is there too, and the love of God! An excellent book in all regards!! I'm going to read everything she has written!"
217107,2,what minor pro hockey is all about,"HELLO HOCKEY FANS OF ALL LEAGUES. JUST WANT TO TELL U ABOUT LES CHEIFS OF LAVAL QUEBEC. THEY ARE A HOCKEY TEAM IN THE MINOR PROS. IT IS A AWESOME MOVIE. IT IS WHAT IT IS LIKE TO PLAY IN THE MINOR PROS, AND HOW HARD, AND WHAT THE PLAYERS DO TO TRY TO MAKE IT TO THE BIG LEAGUES. IF U LIKE HOCKEY U WILL LIKE THIS MOVIE. I RATED IT A 5 OUT OF 5"
217109,2,Classic Duke,"Classic John Wayne at his best. Color,plot, and scenery are great. If you have a collection this is a must have."
217114,2,Great !,"I have read Book one and two, and I just started book three. I love this story can't wait to get to book 4 ) and Book 5."
217195,2,This product is not an official Star Wars soundtrack and is not endorsed by Lucasfilm Ltd.,"I saw this in a store one day and just had to pick it up. I thought it might be pretty bad, but I just couldn't resist it. Surprise surprise, it actually turned out to be quite good. It features music from the Star Wars trilogy (the original trilogy) played lounge jazz style. I know it sound crazy, but it works. This is fun, swinging, slighty silly music. If you are a Star Wars fan who doesn't take things too seriously, you will probably get a kick out of this CD."
217303,2,I see you ... I see you ...,The binoculars work fine. Much better than my old beat up backpack binoculars.. I also like the protective case. I will take them with me as I climb Everest..
217315,2,Schumacher knows his stuff,"Schumacher showed he had vision by purchasing real estate in the burgeoning market of Hermosa Beach and Manhattan Beach years ago. With this book, he continues to show the same vision he started his career with."
217333,2,An entertainig story with admirable character development.,"As an active duty Air Force pilot, I could readily identify with most of the characters in this story. I found it interesting to hear about the tactical nuclear weapons testing. Historically, the story is accurate it it's descriptions, even though the locations of events are changed.The book had several plotlines, making for a fast and interesting read. I would recomend this book to aviation buffs or lovers of action/adventure."
217450,2,Echt gut!,"Der Meister hat's allen mal wieder gezeigt. Der lonesome sparrow sitting on a barbed wire fence wiht a crown of thorns. Goutieren oder nicht goutieren, das ist hier die Frage. De gustibus non est disputandum. Finis. Fecit 4. Februar 2000"
217458,2,A Great Book!,"If you want insight into the parables of Jesus and how they relate to the events in the last three years of His ministry, this is a MUST read. The impact on your own life will be evident as well. Ellison gets to the heart of Christ's offer of mercy and grace to a lost and searching world.I have used Ellison's outlines of the OT (Knowing God's Word) in my Bible Study for years and have also read ""Who Owns The Land?"" -- one of his monumental books -- more than once. But this book is the best I have ever found by him --Buy several and give them to your friends --"
217513,2,Superb,"This movie is great. It has Bela Lugosi in it so what more can one say. However, in addition to Bela Lugosi, the transfer to dvd is just really, really fine. The picture is just incredible as is the sound. The soundtrack is real too and goes very well with the music. It was composed by the classical composer, Castelnuovo-Tedesco.What I found most fascinating in the movie was the role of the troubled werewolf and his relationship with those around him. The movie is in large part about the werewolf. There are some great moments when Tesla the Vampire treats the werewolf in a really bad way. Lugosi is so vicious that it is quite amusing to watch because he is just so evil.After the original Dracula and White Zombie this is my favorite Lugosi film."
217656,2,Pool cover,This product is very well made and is easy for one person to cover the pool. We have used it all summer and it is like new....buy it.
217683,2,My personal apreciation and opinion,"I think the adidas products are one the best of the entire world, and this is not the exception..."
217740,2,Pictorial History At Its Best,"If you have the slightest interest in the history of the FDNY, this is the book for you. Yes, there are other good books on the FDNY, but the niche occupied by this book (i.e, badges) is unique. But, it would be a mistake to think the book deals only with badges. Rather, the book uses FDNY badges as the focal point for describing the development of the FDNY as we know it today. The writing is clear, details abound, and the photos are wonderful. In real life, I - like the author of this book - am a health care professional. However, I am a fire buff (originally from Brooklyn, NY), a member of our local Citizens Fire Academy, and have been collecting a variety of fire department memorabilia, including FDNY badges, for some time. For the first time, I have a reference on my shelf that affords me the ability to more vividly appreciate the history, art, lore and romance of fire department antiques."
217745,2,Don't watch this at night by yourself!,"A terrific scary movie! Great performances, classic black and white, good production values, a cute dog, and Ray Milland; what more could you ask for? I saw this first as a teenager, and I have seen it again many times since then, and still enjoy it every time. See it immediately!"
217774,2,Zombies are the new black,"This game has amazing replay value. Despite only including 4 maps, it's one of the most addicting and thrilling gaming experiences you'll ever face. Too bad the single player aspect is only mediocre at best. Otherwise this game should earn a perfect 5 stars."
217828,2,Valley of Silence (The Circle Trilogy: Book 3),"I like al the dark sort of books and this one was good it had drama, romance, action and adventure, you never know who would win or if they all would survive. I really enjoyed this series."
217874,2,Order a size larger!,"I never purchased Dickies before. I read many reviews I chose the Men's Flat Front Multi Use Pocket Work Pant, Black, 40x32. As other reviews have stated, they are very stiff at least before the first wash. I have worn them a few times now and they have loosened up. As others have stated, order a size larger. While they fit, they were a little tight especially through the hip area which was surprising. The only other complaint would be the pockets do not have as much room as other pants in the front. The side pocket about knee level is probably good for sunglasses and a nice touch. I use it for my keys since I don't have enough room in the front pockets. All in all, these pants are great. I purchased them for work at the bank and they look great and didn't wrinkle in the washer and dryer. A huge plus for men! I will be purchasing more in a larger size."
217889,2,Earthsong Review,The book has the most amazing photographs that truly celebrate the Earth. I would highly recommend this work of art. It's spectacular and I'm certainly glad I purchased it.
217960,2,Great service great movie!,"i bought this product few years ago! (sorry for late review) haha but it came just as fast as it said, ive always enjoyed the movie and i will buy from you again if i ever see a product i like..Recommend to anyone who wants to buy something to buy it from you!"
218065,2,Brand New. No problems!!,Great present idea...My boyfriend loved it! There was a mini comic book inside. This is a great item for anyone who is a fan of Community!
218145,2,Famous Vitnage Picture,"Even though this is a poster print, (meaning there's no value in it being a Vintage photo) most people won't realize this, and if you get it framed it'll look like you have something of real value from the past, as these pictures sold for a ton back in the day.Muhammad Ali was also known for being the best Boxer in history by many, so this is definitely a poster people who love to have and see."
218159,2,Keeping fit in your 50s,A variety of exercises for a variety of workouts that give ease and enjoyment of exercise.A wonderful product
218167,2,Best,hey everyone this is such a god book i havent read a lot but i liked this one so much!!!! Gaia had a very hard life even when she was a lil kid you learn so much bout her and her family's past. And even Loki a.k.a Oliver. I absolutely loved it. plz read
218204,2,"Just the basics, please.","I was looking for some basic, no frills sweatpants to wear to the gym or around the house on those rare occasions when it gets cold in Houston, TX. After revewing a lot of sweatpants: with pockets, flared legs, stripes,hip hugger style (yikes!)and more, I finally found these. They are very comfortable and warm. They are of a medium weight with a draw-string waist and elastic at the ankles. In short, they're perfect. I like them so much, I ordered another pair in a different color."
218309,2,great little bag. perfect size for little camera,Bought this for my son to keep his Kodak camera safe. Pockets hold memory card and extra batteries. Have seen him wear the bag on his belt.The camera fits. This works as one would expect a camera bag to perform. What more to ask for when spending less than $10?
218318,2,"Great, simple book!","This book cuts out all of the frills and extras. If you want to truly run a 4-hour marathon in four months, buy this book. The best part about this training program is that it doesn't cause you to hate running. You only jog 3 days a week, making sure to get your long run in on Saturday. There are also some helpful tips on nutrition and running attire."
218321,2,My son loves it!,"I am a Children's lay pastor. I spent hours looking for Bibles for kids in the 8-16 year-old range. I had my 9-year-old son helping me, and we looked at all sorts of ""kid-friendly"" Bibles. I wanted something with the complete, undiluted Truth, but with some extras that draw kids into the Bible. My son eagerly wanted to take this Bible to school with him.This bible grabs the attention of boys. Like the 2:52 books that have recently been published that include ""Bible Weapons and Wars"", ""Bible Heroes & Bad Guys"", and many others; this Bible draws boys to the things they're interested in and makes them want to read the Bible to find out more.Unlike another reviewer that said it's awful to have the ""grossology"" next to the Word of God, I find that the extra content draws chldren in and helps them make sense of what happened several centuries before. I don't see it as belittling God's Word, but rather encouraging kids to get more out of it."
218365,2,Cobra 25 LTD Classic,"Typical CB. Typical functions. It works as advertised. I bought this radio primarily for use in a company van. It is set up to be installed, and removed in under a minute. I don't have to leave it in when I'm not driving.The transmitter works fine with good audio reports using the stock mic. The receive is good, also. The RF gain control is a nice feature to limit the ""junk"" coming in that I don't need or want to hear. The received audio is tinny and weak. It could use a better speaker with some bass. What kept me from giving this radio 5 stars? The horrible built in speaker and a lack of an automatic noise limiter.Personally I feel the Instant CH 9 / Normal is a waste of time along with the PA option.Just my .2 cents worth."
218505,2,Excellent,"I found it an excellent introduction into the field of ethno-musicology, that has somehow turned from a ""also-to-be-considered"" outsider in musicology to a pace-maker in a diversified musical world of internet and globalization. Nettl is, it seems to me, deeply rooted in an old European philological tradition nevertheless, that positions its subject within the frame of the ""masters"" of musicology and ethno-musicology alike and stands apart from a lot of word-rich ""cultural studies"" blabla that is extensively published (less read, I suppose ?!) today. A great book !"
218595,2,Nice and sturdy!,"The knife block set that we received as a gift did not have slots to include steak knives like this one has, which holds our collection plus a couple of slots for future additions. It looks great on our kitchen counter!"
218624,2,Fine grinder,"I love this grinder, I have nothing to compare it to since this is my first burr grinder ever used , but I enjoy my coffee moments more than I ever have. I like that I can grind only the amount of coffe that I'm brewing , say 4 cups , 8 cups or maybe 10 -- and found that setting it at an 8 grind I taste flavors that I don't at other setting so I leave it on 8 ( good place to start anyway)"
218671,2,A fantastic read!,"This book was great! Abby Chastain feels she is following in her mother's footsteps, only that's not a good thing. Her mother was put in an asylum at a young age, the same age that Abby is now. Recently divorced, Abby's ex husband, a radio dj, blasts her on the airwaves and now he's dead. Now, all signs point to Abby. Only Det. Montoya believes that Abby is a target and not the killer. When murders start happening in pairs, all evidence leads Abby to the very asylum that held her mother. This is a fantastic story, it held my attention, and I can't wait to read another Montoya novel!"
218713,2,good advice,"This book has some great ideas and tips for having a budget-conscious wedding. I like that the author gives the 'bargain', 'budget', and 'bling' ideas for each category depending on how much you want to spend. It has good advice about talking to vendors and even alternatives to the traditional things. Using the suggestions in this book, you can have a fabulous wedding with exactly what you want for $5000 instead of $30,000. Excellent!"
218809,2,A Penetrating Portrait,"A very deep study of Mao's every move for decades, with each questionable decision and hidden agenda explained in great detail, using documents from around the world as evidence...but as dry as that sounds, it's actually quite a page-turner. I started reading this at the same time as a Gao Xingjian novel and found this book even more compelling than the fiction.After reading this compendium of selfish atrocities, it is very hard to see people my age (college- to post-college) wearing this man's image as little more than a fashion statement. Were this required reading, the man would be as reviled as Hitler.But along those lines, my only criticism is that this book is so virulently anti-Mao that it clearly delves into pure opinion periodically, and the personal tone of it makes me suspect its objectivity a lot. Surely SOMETHING that Mao did over the course of his ENTIRE lifetime had pure intent?"
218821,2,Womans World Magazine,"I have not received my subscription yet,but, I have read this magazine before and enjoy the many recipes and ideas that are in them."
218832,2,Great Investment!,"My wife and I ordered so that we can stop buying expensive, pre-sliced lunch meat and cheese. It works better than I expected. the blade is sharp, it is easy to get thin cuts with the adjustable thickness knob, and clean-up is not that bad. A note on clean-up: We prefer to get all the cutting out of the way in one shot. Would not want to slice each day and have to clean each day.A great, solid little slicer!"
218902,2,Hip is TOP,"You have to buy this is you are even a so so fan. It is great and you will be dancing from the 1st track. If you like TOP and have seen them, them you will want this. Five stars plus!"
218941,2,get it here or get it somewhere else,"I would just like to say that this book is informitive and answered all my questions. Other books don't talk about religion and stuff like that like this book. and all the parents who are like "" Oh my God this book has ...[a bad word in it]!!!"" need to take a chill pill. Speaking as a 13 year old girl, we've heard it befor and we'll here it again. Now you can either try to protect us by not talking to us about it and letting us get it of the streets and get wrong info: or you can give us this book that answers our questions and talk to us about it. We're going get this stuff anyways. We might as well get it from our parents."
218943,2,This Book Helped Me Help Others,"""The Difference a Day Makes"" is a terrific book. Karen has done a great job in communicating the importance of giving back every day. There were several new ways to give that I learned through reading this book. It is easy to read, understand and implement in your daily life. I would recommend it to anyone that wants to make a difference (and that should be everyone)."
218966,2,Funny/sad story of an insomniac hypotist.,"One of the best novels of recent years. Bell's story of aninsomniac hypotist is by turns funny, scary, perplexing,intriquing, and almost any other adjective that inspiresinterest. All of Bell's fiction ranks among the best beingwritten today, but Dr. Sleep and Waiting for the End of theWorld are especially rich examples of his earlier work."
218983,2,The Fix is in...,"There has been much written about the faulty disc that marred the release of this DVD. I received my copy from Amazon a couple of days ago and the speed problem has been fixed.The two concerts represented on this DVD have been filmed in black and white, and as the result the video isn't what one would hope. That said, there is a dearth of video material for Renaissance so anything is welcome. And the best part is that the two concerts are actually of the band... they were shot from the stage and give you an up-close and personal view of the group in action. There isn't any of that vertigo-inducing MTV editing that seems to be so much part and parcel of many modern concert vids.I give this a definite five stars. The video isn't perfect and the audio isn't exquisite, but the music represents two really great periods of Renaissance output.If you're a fan, I highly recommend it!"
218988,2,This music evokes the full gamut of human emotion!,"I am trying to work through the anger, pain, and grief (mourning) of living with multiple sclerosis. When I need to cry,I put this soundtract on, not only to allow me to feel anger, but to enable me to feel the sadness and lonliness of the human condition. This music truly seems to validate the pain of a disability and/or lifechanging handicap."
219121,2,A must read book!,"I consider myself a pretty good club tennis player and regardless of the professional training and hours of practice I always ended up loosing, many times to players with ratings bellow mine. It was frustrating! until I got this book. First I thought the information was too obvious but as I continued reading it I found out that my problems were common and better jet, the book gave me solutions! So I used every strategy I learned from the book during the last tournament. The result: I WON! Yes I did! and to make things better, during the finals I played against the #1 seeded player in the state! Now this book has become my tennis bible."
219126,2,"""Running on Ice"" is a tremendous album","What a great CD this is. Crowd favorites like ""The Man Who would be Santa,"" ""Heart in Hand,"" and ""Wash Away"" all originated from this disc. Many of the bands newer fans may think this record is ""mellow,"" but its all acoustic sound is what makes the songs so real. Matt Scannell and Keith Kane's songs make this one of the most complete albums I own. If you like Guster, Pat McGee, and Jackopierce, this is the record for you. If you only like ""Everything you Want,"" this record may not be up you alley."
219200,2,Great and Tasty Cook Book!,"I just have to say, I've made several of the items in the book and have loved them all. Easy to make. All of the ingredients are listed (with some tips too). Nutritional info is provided. Great book. Not like the original, but provides some wonderful alternatives if you're trying to eat healty."
219220,2,good deal,"Brand new book, fair price. Even I had accidentally typed in a wrong address, I received the book after several weeks."
219223,2,Great addition to golf shoe collection,"I golf at least 3 times a week and walk the course. I developed foot pain this Spring. My regular golf shoes have been making it difficult to complete 18 holes without pain. I have modified some of my current shoes to relieve discomfort but when I wear my new Bite sandals, I have happy feet again! It helps having the velcro adjustments and the spacious toe area. I have medium width feet and the sandals fit very nicely with socks. I think this modest investment in golf footware will allow me to not to have to invest in medical orthodics."
219296,2,A fascinating volume.,"""The Willamette Locomotive"" is a fascinating story of a compact but mighty large-gear locomotive.Steve Hauff and Jim Gertz do a workmanlike job of examining how, in the early 1920s, Oregon's Willamette Iron and Steel Works produced over 30 of these power-horses to specifically meet the formidable demands of Northwest loggers.Unlike other trains of their day, the Willamettes were able to perform despite rough tracks, unbelivable grades, and little maintenance.There are over 250 b&w photos, and many of them are sharp and detailed."
219303,2,What can i say it is the best !!!!,I Loved it alot. because he learns at the end that his mom really cares about him alot. i thought leo was the hottest when him and aunt bessie went driving on the beach !!! it was really good ~~ ! END
219355,2,a good airsoft gun,I bought another ak47 for my son and the barrel broke off and never got a new one so i decided to get him this one and he loves it and he says that when he plays airsoft he almost always wins.So I reccomend any airsoft player to get one of these because its a great buy
219382,2,Something Fishy Here,"A useful book with 135 pages of recipes, with additional information on nutritional and health benefits, preparation tips (e.g., shucking an oyster), and safety instructions for the cook and angler. Recipes are easy and uncluttered, with very tasty results. The book includes separate chapters on appetizers, soups and stews, sandwiches, salads, finfish, shellfish, microwaving, and baking, and special occasions (for example, oyster stuffing and Thanksgiving salmon, an everyone's favorite (?), a Sunday dinner of ""Halibut Pot Roast.""One complaint is that there are not enough baked fish recipes (nor are there menu or wine suggestions). However, this is an excellent introduction to the whys and hows of some delicious fish dishes. With numerous tables (including nutritional and texture comparisons, and cooking and grilling techniques), index, and nutritional and diabetic exchange information for each recipe."
219430,2,Communism is just a red herring!,"I like clue so much, I wrote a poem about it: I like Clue- So should you- Tim Curry is great- I just can't wait- To see it again and again! Okay, I know that ain't no Bob Dylan, but my point is that Clue is hecka hysterical. All characters, even the dead ones were great. Tim Curry, as usual, is the best!"
219431,2,"""Frankly Scarlett, I don't give a damn.""","I have to say that clue is my favorite movie. Not only does Tim Curry, once again, play a great bad guy but the rest of the cast is excelent. I love the fact that the movie had three endings and that when it was in theaters they were all shown at different theaters. Clue is by far the best movie i have ever seen! END"
219458,2,A great book for high intermediate and advanced students.,The mixture of case study presented in the context of a ESL book works out to be a great tandem in this book. I highly recomend this book to anyone who is teaching advanced students interested in learning English in a business context. Unfourtunately the book canot be purchased here with the cassette. Too bad becuase I believe it is the keystone to the sucess of the this particular book.
219464,2,Fascinating Look Into A Little-Known Area,"We all know about shipwrecks, but I had never heard of people who make a living off of these tragedies - even whole communities that basically lie in wait for these wrecks to happen - until I stumbled on this book.Bella Bathurst's look into Wreckers is really interesting, though a tad overwritten. Nonetheless, it's totally worth reading. She's particularly good at capturing the personalities of the people involved, as well as giving a great historical overview of this bizarre and fascinating pocket of human life.If you like books about seafaring, this is a great little detour."
219468,2,Predictable quality,"This cookbook provides quality recipes that are absolutey yummy. The mango chutney and cranberry sauce recipes are fabulous. This is an excellent choice for anyone who likes tasty, small batch preserving. Very easy to follow and understand."
219541,2,NOVI Wireless Intercom 4-Channel Still Working 31 Years,"Our units show a manufactured date of 102573, and we purchased 31 years ago. Although not in constant use during the past 31 years, they still work, and now for the past 5 years, are being used to communicate between two houses situated across the road from one another, quite a distance. Even though ours were manufactured 35 years ago, they look identical to these pictured. Great product."
219629,2,The best novel ever written!,"The translation and the older language style make this a tough read, but no other novel commands your emotions and passions like Les Miserables. Victor Hugo plays the reader's soul like a violin. My literary goal is to actually finish reading an entire unabridged version"
219742,2,desire,i love the walkman is very nice the services from amazon was very profecional i will buy more from amazon any time we not problem thank you amazon from gil
219746,2,Intriguing and a Cut Above,"Unless you hate lurid sex (and who doesn't)you should give this book a chance. It may annoy you or entertain you but a week later there is a good chance you will thing about it which may be the measure of a decent book. The main character, who clearly allows a look into Theroux's mind at least as far as travel writing, is self-indulgent and cynical and so often right on with his view of the rich and sophisticated. They reveal themselves by their reactions to his feigned disability. In the course of things his own weaknesses are uncovered. Not a nice book but you can read Harry Potter and take a shower when you are done."
219792,2,Gag Riot,"Aside from having a Beginning/Middle/End and being very entertaining (sadly, many films today miss this entirely!), this is a very funny film. There's gags for pure gags, and there's social commentary disguised as gags. It's Brooks' finest work, far funnier and far deeper than the classic Blazing Saddles, and perhaps almost equal (or better) than Young Frankenstein. Gene Wilder IS Leo Bloom, a neurotic Everyman (being a bit neurotic myself I identify with him). Zero Mostel is the boisterous Ne'er-do-well (and being a dreamer with anger I also identify with him). The performances are pure magic, topped only by Kenneth Mars (as Franz Liebkion) as a True Believer in the the ""nice"" side of a cartoon Hitler.There's Slapstick, Satire, Sarcasm, Wit, and so much more. If you like Life, and you like to laugh, buy his film. It's a Bible. (Everything Important I Learned from The Producers.)"
219831,2,"A ""must read"" for anyone who cares about true diversity","Wienir and Berley's ""Diversity Hoax"" provides a disheartening glimpse into the state of American higher education. It illustrates the hyperbole and closed mindedness that passes for free thought and reasoned discourse at Berkeley. But more importantly, ""The Diversity Hoax"" exposes the current gilded notion of ""diversity"" for what it is. Berkeley students, professors, and administration evidently celebrate diversity of skin while shunning diversity of thought. Currently a senior in high school and aspiring lawyer, I will soon face the seemingly Sisyphian task of standing up to the radical liberalism so prevalent on college campuses. I only hope that I will have the same courage as Wienir and Berley to speak my mind and fight for true diversity."
219849,2,"wonderful,cute,suspensful !","This book is great i love it! It is about a shy girl named Amy who feels alone.She finds a dog named Sherlock that could talk they immediatly became friends.Sherlock belongs to a mean scientist who does experiments on him to make him smarter.Sherlock is running away and Amy hides him from the scientist.I won't tell you how it ends,but if you like dogs and mysteries you have to buy this book!!I would recommend this book to 4th,5th and 6th graders.Get this book and trust me you'll be happy with it!"
219924,2,Very Good Camera,With this camera u can take 5-60 second mpeg videos but at a pretty good quality. With a photo printer ive been able to make excellent 8x10's also using the software that comes with the camera. (Arcsoft Photo Studio v2.0) The only real downside to this camera is the quite slow recording speed using memory stick. But if your willing to spend more towards a speed memory stick you will be very happy with this camera. It also has a very high speed just using plain old floppy discs. This camera has a load of great features and is very good overall
219955,2,Great highly portable navigation system,"I love the fact that this units fits in a shirt pocket and can run for many hours on one recharge. I bought it to replace my Garmin Quest that was lost/stolen. Unlike the original Quest, this one holds all of North America (no more reloading maps every time I travel). However, I have noticed that the Quest 2 (compared with the original Quest) is slower calculating routes, finding things, and refreshing the map as you travel. I suspect this is because of the increased memory (the amount of data it has to go through). For me the speed is acceptable but you can wait for 30 seconds or so while it plots longer routes. If you love portable use and small units for traveling, get this one, unless you are impatient with these things."
220054,2,Contents:,"Life sure is dealing Bud Daley a mean hand. His entire stock of Triangle-D cattle is stolen, Sheriff Breed won't help him because of a personal grudge, his wife May is being propositioned by a disloyal money-lender, and Bud's friends, Uncle Jimmy and the huge Sody, are short on ideas and long on arguments. And when Bud is arrested for murder and the robbery of the Modoc bank, Hashknife Hartley and Sleepy Stevens are determined to help reunite May with her persecuted husband."
220152,2,Fun at first,"I enjoy the game, and all the options you have, but I am just not compelled to keep playing after the first few weeks. Seems to get repetitive."
220156,2,"What Loux does, he does well","""Metaphysics"" has meant many things to many different people. Loux helpfully distinguishes in the introduction between general and special metaphysics. The former concerns being qua being, and the latter concerns disparate topics such as free will, cosmology, and God. Loux said he would only concern himself with general metaphysics. Specifically, he concerns himself with Anglophone general metaphysics from 1950 to 1990. Thus, the subtitle, ""A Contemporary Introduction.""Loux treats universals (realism vs. nominalism), concrete particulars (substrata vs. bundles, persistence through time), propositions, and modality (necessity and possibility). He handles matters will a degree of explicitness, thoroughness, and evenhandedness. The text is challenging at points--I attribute this to the fact that metaphysics cannot be dumbed down.All in all, quite thorough and an excellent introduction to contemporary general metaphysics."
220285,2,Recommended - regardless of age,"I'm kind of old to be reading American Girl books, and I always hated the boring-and-blah books about the American Girls of Yesterday, but I was pleasantly surprised by this book. I was babysitting for an 11-year-old and her copy was on the coffee table, so I started to read it and couldn't put it down. It isn't slow to get started and it has a very interesting storyline. The fact that it was written by a woman who grew up in Turkey makes the narration that much more authentic and engaging. Even though the age recommendation is 9-12, I didn't find the writing style patronizing at all. I'm interested now to see what the other books in the ""Girls of Many Lands"" series are like."
220400,2,Very relaxing,"This was a great video for relaxing and stretching out stiff muscles. I have fibromyalgia and it is very difficult to find yoga videos that help when you are really stiff, sore and hurting. This video is great for that purpose and I would recommend it for others who have fibromyalgia."
220402,2,Sara Ivanhoe Knows How to Help You Relax,"This is ""the best"" DVD for a relaxing yoga exercise session. I use this DVD almost EVERY night before going to sleep. It is a wonderful stress reliever. I ordered it for my Grandson's Kindergarten Teacher last year. This year I ordered it to give to my girlfriends for Christmas. [There is also a 15 minute version included to use when I need a short session.]"
220452,2,Quick & Easy,"I read the reviews for this DVD before I'd actually purchased it and I LOVE IT! I have other yoga videos, but I love Ellen and she's a great teacher. But over the course of one week, you will definitely see results, NO JOKE. But this only comes with eating right and doing it CONSISTENTLY. I definitely recommend this and it fits into my time well, being I work full time. The reason why Pilates works is because it focuses on the smaller muscles and tones from there. This is a great video though...I'll recommend it to those who are just getting started."
220457,2,Unbelievable!,"The Toshiba HD-XA2 is ALL its cracked up to be! HD DVD and DVD look and sound incredible! Forget about blu-ray, that format has done nothing but disappoint with non-interactive menus, mpeg-2 encoding,etc. HD DVD is cleary the best format and the HD-XA2 will prove it.I am running it in full 1080p via HDMI through a Sony 50"" SXRD and I can't stress enought how good both HD DVD and DVD look. This machine makes me feel better about my 400+ DVD collection because now I feel I don't have to replace them so soon. Colors are vibrant, image sharp and detailed, blacks are perfect and I haven't even touched the picture settings yet! Sound is amazing as well. This is the BEST HD MACHINE OUT THERE!!!! And the price can't be beat!"

220512,2,An invaluable source,"I found this guidebook invaluable on my Honduran journey. The book was for the most part, highly accurate, informed, and well written. It is clear that the author traveled extensively throughout Honduras and was able to learn about the culture and the people. I also found the historical references fascinating. They enhanced my trip. I highly recommend this book to anyone visiting Honduras."
220529,2,LapTop Cooler,"Works great, just as advertsed. If you want to extend the life of your laptop get this!"
220564,2,Comedy,"Funny, and great moral to the story. How one person's life and it's complications can effect another's. How they came together for a common cause and the risks that came along with it."
220631,2,Gerber Butterfly Knife,My Husband really liked this knife. He used to have a different Gerber and wore it out. He likes this one better!
220724,2,A solid and entertaining sequel,"Ever notice you read a lot faster pre-college than postgraduate school? I suspect that has to do with the kind of books being read. This book definitely falls into the category of those fast reading books. It is unlikely you will go away with the feeling of utter awe, but you will be extremely entertained. Maupin maintains the momentum he built from Tales of the City, as his character continue to grow in this story. If you liked the first book, this is a worthy sequel. The lives of the occupants of 28 Barbary Lane goes on, and it feels as if you never left them. Okay, so the way things unfold is little preposterous, but most likely you won't care and you will just go with the flow. I did, and I thoroughly enjoyed the ride.And if you ever visit San Francisco, you will probably be seized with the urge to go visit at least one place mentioned in this book."
220762,2,Wonderful book for ethnobotanists,"This book is an interesting review of all the new methodologies use to research in ethnobotany. It also show how plants are important for humans, and the relationship between humans and plants. In addition, it contains a lot interesting information about the plants and their differents properties; such as medicinal, food, etc."
220910,2,Good Speakers,Very good speakers especially at the price of $175/pair. Completed my Klipsch setup and is very well balanced.
220932,2,Mysteriously musical,"Bauhaus was an architectural style in the '20 that came back at the end of the '80 when I left the family house. Well my appartement was decorated in that style. Elegant purged line was the basic of it.Bauhaus music is modeled on the same pattern. Minimalist with a lot of charism. It's nothing and it is everything at the same time. All through the album, the bass gets really hypnotic and the guitar is often strident, best exemlpe would be ""Stigmata Martyr"". My favorite,""Bela Lugosi's dead"", is ingeniously well composed. ""God in an alcove"" and ""A spy in the cab"" are more psychedelic. ""Terror couple kill colonel"", ""In the flat field"" are pretty good.Maybe not for everybody"
220989,2,A Book for everyone who wants to learn more of God's Word,"Good book, A must read for those who would desire to be students of God's Word. All Christians can use this information to ""rightly divide the Word of truth"". It is clear in it's format and writing and very complete in its covering of the principles of Biblical interpretation."
221017,2,Great book,"Being a woman and also being raised with only sisters, I did not know much about having or raising a boy. This book helped me to understand my son better."
221084,2,It doesn't get any better,"This is by far, the bible for segmented turning. I constantly refer to it to get ideas for new projects and hone my techniques. Even after several years of creating segmented bowls, I keep coming back to it for sound advice. Through experimentation, I developed a number of techniques for producing segmented bowls. But surprisingly, every single one of those techniques are described in this book. If I were to start over, this would be my single reference. Worth every penny."
221110,2,"Awwwhhhh, yeah","I like freestyle and have a 5-CD collection but somehow this one just does it right. Great for running or other ""high NRG"" activities...listened to it, over and over and over.A most excellent choice."
221113,2,"Great, fat-burning cardio!","This is such a good workout. Ten-minute segments, so you can ""squeeze in"" a quick workout if you don't have a lot of time. I enjoy it so much, I usually end up going from one to the next because I don't want to stop! You will work up a sweat. I really like this particular instructor too; I've had several of her videos."
221160,2,Great Sound and Great Comfort.,"The headphone has great sound, and it feels comfortable. I feel the sound clarity is very good, but it does lack bass. The sound doesn't compare to quality stereo systems, but for a headphone, it works well. I use the headphone for laptops and MP3 players. I can wear it for a long time, without feeling uncomfortable. Compared to other headphone I've used, this has the best sound quality. I use it all the time for both movies and music. If you prefer sound quality, I would recommend this headphone. If you prefer heavy bass, you might find this headphone inadequate."
221161,2,fantastic,"these are everything that headphones should be, at a fraction of the cost of less capable models. i wear these for hours at a time and they continue to feel great. i wont go back to normal headphones after purchasing these"
221214,2,Inspired and Insane,"If you're tired of the ""tell a canned anecdote while plugging your latest _______"" kind of talk show and you'd rather watch likable people having fun with no other purpose, this is the show for you! Just try not laughing while watching David Cross make CGI'd paella with lime green wood blocks while wearing an identically colored body suit and turning the names ""Hall and Oates"" into an Italian ingredient. Try it. I dare you!"
221325,2,This is a great DVD!,"If you love these old songs, you will love this black and whiteDVD with great singers. I must for any collection!!"
221332,2,Haven Movie Soundtrack - Something a Little Different,"Saw the movie Haven in its World Premiere at the Toronto Film Festival in 2004 and thought, ""thats an interesting soundtrack""Now 5 years later, after purchasing the CD and listening to it, once again, I say ""an interesting soundtrack"", something a little different.Although not all the songs are appealing, it does have a nice island feel, especially the reggae cover version of ""Here Comes the Night""Janet"

221403,2,the ghosts are gonna rock this town,"More than 20 years have passed since I first saw RED LORRY YELLOW LORRY perform live in a small independent swiss venue called Fri-Son (hear: free sound).We didn't quite know what to expect as this band was rather obscure to us.The room went dark and a vintage rhythm machine kept us guessing as the racks of gear and guitars on stage gradually disappeared in clouds of smoke.Then the members of the clan walked onto the stage quietly, all leather-clad menacing shadows, like vampires straight out of a Sergio Leone western film.And the band unleashed their sound upon us, a haunting mixture of relentless, layered guitars, insistent beats and chilling, hollow vocals.The ghost of Joy Division definitely had legs that night, dancing away to the echoes of RED LORRY's dark and stormy themes.This compilation gives a good idea what RLYL was about, especially the second half of the selection which includes most titles from the memorable album ""Paint Your Wagon""."
221433,2,If You Love The Gossip Girl Series You'll Love South Beach!!,South Beach is a very good book and its original. Every page is exciting and it's hard to put down. I am picky with books and some I get really bored in but not South Beach. I would have to say South Beach is the best book I've ever read and I recommend it! ! !It's an excellent read for Teens
221501,2,RAZAC HAIR OIL,"This is a fine product that allows one's hair to glow. However, the container does not get back to it's original shape once it's squeezed."
221582,2,Connelly's 2nd book is a winner,"Michael Connelly's book ""Black Ice"" (the 2nd book he wrote) takes us back to Harry Bosch and his investigation of a suicide of a police officer. Bosch gets involved in the case since his supervisor knows Bosch can solve cases and the department needs to get some cases closed to make the politicians look good.The plot gets more involved as Bosch finds himself dealing with Mexican authorities and the drug cartel in Mexico. It's a good read from one of the best mystery writers around these days. Not to ""spoil"" anyone's reading of the numerous books written by Connelly, but this book (Black Ice) and his latest book (The Lincoln Lawyer) have a connection which will surprise you.If you haven't read anything by Michael Connelly it is time to do so!"
221610,2,Exaggerated but entertaining,"This book is somewhat exaggerated. A relatively entertaining story told by a former Wall Street salesman. The author has many funny accounts of wall street brutalities, abuse and the money culture. The author talks about the Orange County treasurer and how Morgan Stanley managed to make a lot of money from them, and eventually drive them to bankruptcy. It is very comparable to ""Liars Poker"" by M. Lewis.Fun light read."
221644,2,A Diamond In The Rough,"this second opus from the ray soundtrack is incredible just as the first one was. now to say that this isn't great then somebody lied to you jack. every song as in the first one gives you musical sketch of what type artist whom can cross genres at tap of his feet and easily make something happen. i actually love this cd better than the first one. (prolly cuz i got it in reverse order) so if you like the soundtrack, and loved the film then get this one as well. favorite tracks are:leave my women alonelonely avenuei believe to my soulthe danger zonebustedlet's get stoneddrifting bluesrockhouses 1&2"
221680,2,Best Bike Book Ever,"If you enjoy reading about cycling and living this is a great book. I've read every touring and cycling book you can imagine, but this is the best! It really gives you a new perspective on how we ride today when you look at what these two boys had to endure at the turn of the century when roads did not exists as we know today. A truly well written adventure, great venacular dialogue, credible and yet an incredible story."
221748,2,Real Life Adventure,"I bought this book because a friend and I intend to ride from North to South America in 2018 when all our kids have grown old enough not to miss us. I really hope that we don't have to live through what Glen did but who knows what the continent will be like in 10 years? This is a brilliantly written book with lots of good information and tips for travel. The section on Columbia is well done and doesn't overdominate the story. I wonder from Ted Simon's comments in 'Dreaming of Jupiter' after meeting Glen following his ordeal, if Glen has downplayed his emotional state a little. It must have been a totally awful experince and one I doubt I could have survived. It just goes to show that it helps to be strong when attempting a journey like this but like so many things at the end of the day its all about mental toughness. I take my hat off to Glen and he has inspired me yet again to start my own adventure."
221813,2,great memories of this book,"This was my textbook in second-year Latin before going on to read Caesar, Horace, Cicero, Virgil, and Catullus in subsequent years. I liked the book so much that I bought it as an adult just to keep my Latin fresh. It was wonderful reliving the adventures of Publius and Furianus, the text's two primary protagonists (who, at the risk of being crass, my high school pals and I fondly referred to as 'Pubes and Furry-anus', hey, we were 14...). I have found that the book is an excellent primer for reading Latin primary sources as well as a great reference manual for some of the odder and more difficult Latin grammatical constructions (e.g. counterfactual conditionals). I used a different text when I took Latin again in college, and this book was clearly superior to that one."
221966,2,Good Stuff,Old book as described to me that my Dad read as a kid. I like it! Will give it to him for Christmas!
221968,2,Holy Shiate!!,"I will not go on any further then to say Robert Glasper is truly the future of jazz. One foot firmly entrenched in classic jazz and the other completely versed in the contemporary catalog. Working with the gifted Vicente Archer and the sublime Damion Reid, I can't even begin to express how this album moved me. Fluid, smart, lurid, and so beautifully recorded, it's the first thing to move me since the chaotic solos of the Coltranesque Page Hamilton and before that the melodic yet brooding Dexter Gordon. His previous recordings, CANVAS, and MOOD, show his inevitable yet amazing journey. I would and will buy anything Glasper puts out."
222017,2,What A Debut!,It's hard to believe this is a debut. These guys are dead-on and out of the old school of rock and blues. Very solid. They're getting a lot of love here in Philly. It will be exciting to watch them continue to grow.
222056,2,"If This Doesn't Make You Feel Good, Check Your Vital Signs","Great live performance by an original American bluesman to the world. Probably the most under rated Bluesmen alive, Elvin is the real deal. MOst guitar plaers aren't worthy to carry his guitar case.One of the best slide guitar players in the world, a guy that writes songs laden with comedy (find that in these days of rap, heart-break, self-indulgent, and boo-hoo lyrics) Do yourself a favor and collect all of Elvin's CD's before he decides to quit making them."
222078,2,listen to it drunk and high,"listen to this drunk and high and you will initially laugh and say ""my god, it sounds like noise/anarchy/christ has just died and is in the process of being resurrected"".after awhile, you'll say, ""my god! ive never heard anything quite like it!""then you'll give it four stars like i did."

222279,2,Young Family Experiences Breast Cancer: A Man's Perspective,"In Confronting the Cow, Chris Donner does a superb job chronicling his personal experiences and his family's experiences following his wife's breast cancer diagnosis at age 34.His warm, personable, and at times humorous accounts of life's daily experiences allow the reader to step inside his very existence in a virtual sense.Donner shares his thoughts, fears, and techniques for supporting his wife, and their four children, who were all less than six years old, at the time the illness presented itself. In his book, Donner works through all of the human emotions and challeges that breast cancer provokes.He provides just enough technical information to educate the reader on the disease's symptoms and treatment while providing insight into the medical profession's response to the disease.While the book is powerfully emotional and moving, it leaves the reader with a sense of optimism and well-being."
222361,2,Great Camera,"in response to the review from the person who had toubles loading the software with Win XP O/S. I had no problems installing and using the software on my Win XP Pro operating system. In fact, I installed it on my desktop and laptop and it works flawlessly. If you are running Win XP, dont let that review prevent you from purchasing this GREAT camera."
222385,2,My Son loves this toy,"My 2 yr old begs his dad to help him when he uses his electric drill, so he absolutely loves this toy. It works just like a real drill and can easily be handled by little hands. It comes with more than enough screws and the drill comes with multiple drill bits. The battery life on the drill is excellent. My son uses it daily and we haven't needed to change the batteries for weeks."

222598,2,True Gospel At Its Best,I loved the music by James Cleveland and His Choir. Brings Back memories when my mother would talk about how he met James Cleveland when he was just preaching on the corner before he was blessed with God given talent. This is not the watered down Gospel Music you hear on the radio and tv.
222682,2,A good read..,"What can I say, it's a good story.. Especially in the creation of the boundaries of what each god from another sphere may do. As for Lathandar's foolishness.. *smile* Some folks never learn, I'd like to refer to the Avatar series and Crucible as further proof."
222757,2,Cool gadget. Good for Media Center,"For the gadget-crazy crowd...Want to impress your friends? Hold down the function key and watch as hidden amber symbols (for multimedia) appear over the function keys. Slide your finger up and down the touch-sensitive volume bar and watch the amber lights follow your finger (oh, and the volume gets adjusted too!). Give a light press to the touchpad, and see an amber ring appear around it.I would say this is a cooler alternative to other Media Center keyboards, even though it's not really billed as such. But place the keyboard in its charger base on a living room end table, alongside your MCE remote, and be the cool tech-junkie that you are.Just don't expect it to replace the keyboard and mouse on the computer you use to do productive stuff.I still give it 5 stars because it is a great gadget. It is what it is..."

222777,2,"For Us Brits, A Household Appliance, For The Rest Of You...Give It A Try","Viz has always been great immature and often potty-mouthed fun. And here the boys create a dictionary of hilarious terms and phrases. If you are already aware of Viz's comics and you cant help but giggle at them, then you need to get this book. I think the best thing to do is give a few examples -'Brown eye - The ring through which the brown trout jump on their daily migration to the sea.''Fanny nosher - A woman in comfortable shoes who takes the other bus to dine at the Y.''Rasputin - An unkempt vaginal or anal beard.''Gammon flaps - 1. Hole in a farmhouse door through which pigs come and go at will. 2. Beef curtains, gammon goalposts.'Hopefully this gives you an idea of the contents. It is basically a whole host of immature, crass terms and phrases. If you enjoy a little bit of potty-mouthed humour Brit-style, then you will enjoy this a lot."

222937,2,WOW,"I bought a pair of these to do some hiking in the mountains of Guatemala and the Cascades of washington.... WOW, I took them out of the box and could have started hiking then. They are extremely comfortable and needed NO breakin time. I am considering buying another pair, just so I have a spare. Cant recommend enough."
222950,2,"Great song, great collaboration, great vocalist","I was glad we watched the credits for Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle, because we might have missed the song otherwise. If you look around on the Throttle DVD a bit you'll find a video for this hit, featuring Pink as the hero in the same plot as the movie. I like the graphics mixed with footage from the movie and other footage done with the same sets but with Pink.William Orbit adds a unique touch to the song. The basic riff is from ""Fresh Garbage"" by the 60s group Spirit; fortunately Jay Ferguson shares songwriting credits, so it's not a ripoff. I think his songwriting is one thing that makes this song great."

222962,2,Extremely helpful,"The title of this book is misleading. Yes, it is about ""How small business trades worldwide,"" but it's also about so much more. A better title might be: ""Absolutely Essential Primer on Starting a Product Based Business (No Kidding!)"".In a extremely clear and engaging style, Spiers brings the reader step by step through the entire business process: product conception, getting feedback, essential research, sourcing, and bringing the product to market.No, I'm not a friend of the author; and, no, this is not a paid endorsement. I just found this book incredibly helpful and practical. If you are at all interested in starting a product based business, I highly recommend this."

223017,2,The tree tree oil really works on the odor,"This stick with the tree tea oil works really well on BO even over night. the only downer is that it doesn't have a refreshing scent. But for a natural aluminum free deodorant it works great on keeping the stink away, and I think it mostly has to do with the tea tree oil so I couldn't tell you how this brand does if it doesn't contain the oil and is just a scented stick. It is the most similar to an aluminum stick deodorant i have used comparatively on smell, I don't know about sweating, I have yet to do a really hard work out for the sweat test. but I am of the opinion it is good for your body to sweat and then you need a shower anyway so what does it matter. Hopefully this helps."
223029,2,Haunting,"Comprised of the memories of some of the surviving twins, this book also includes photographs of them before and after the war -- totally eye-opening.Obviously, this book is incredibly depressing, and for that reason very difficult to get through. However, it was an aspect of World War II about which I hadn't known much before, and suspect that others don't, as well.No matter how much you might hate some ethnic group, I don't see how anyone could be so inhumane as to torture and dismember this way. People are people, no matter what.I always marvel at how these people can go on to live regular lives. I'm sure that once a person experiences such horrifying ordeals, the scars will never go away emotionally -- but even to give the outward appearance of going on? Takes an incredibly brave person."
223040,2,Good Stuff,"The horrors of the Vietnam War come to life in this novel. You identify with the characters, and almost feel like you are with them. Being in the Army, this book scares me. What if it was me there? Could I be so courageous? Would I survive? It scares me to think about it."
223059,2,interesting movie,Glad that I made the purchase of this movie. The plot is decent and the actors keep you waiting for their next move. I enjoyed the movie so well that I watched it 3 times on the first day that I had it.
223074,2,Lucky Goodwill bargain! $1.00!!,"I bought this candle holder in 2003 for $1 at a local Goodwill. I never realized how much it was worth until today. I love it. It looks great, like a ball of ice. Mine is a bit cloudy, not as clear as the one pictured but I don't feel that takes away from the looks. I really like this but I don't think I'll be buying anymore at $35 each. By the way, they also look great with electronic votive candles."

But, I can't help wishing the story had been written by a stronger author. Pelzer has an important message to communicate, and I hope that writing his book was cathartic for him, cleansing some of his pain, by putting it down in print. Still, the writing was weak. I wanted to cry more..."

223267,2,A must read for all investors.,"I've always believed that there are two things behind everything that gets done on Wall Street and in government. There's the excuse they give you, then the reason. The excuse for the markets existing is that they provide a way for producers to hedge risk and to acquire working capital. True. This happens. But the real ""reason"" for the markets is to separate little guys like you and me from our money. The book is dated, but what he has to say is still applicable today."
223271,2,"Wrote the book, threw it away, all before the genre became musically irrelevant","Masterful songs flow throughout this beautiful, emotional(but-don't-call-it-emo!)disc, scaling the heights of Kinsella and co's excellent, under-rated and influential discography at the crossroads between his hypnotic and mathematical best. There are moments when the compelling structures falter a bit under their ambitions, but by far, to me, it is the wonderful synthesis of everything his earlier bands did in the way of tight percussion and everything his later work did for melodic depth in repetition in one very heartfelt and convincing package, from one musical loving band to one musical loving ear- not to be missed for fans of the emotionally intricate."
223317,2,"Even better than ""Mirabal"", and that's some great music!",I would be absolutely astonished if Robert Mirabal did anything that wasn't great -- an incredibly talented musician who honors himself and his people with his music --- this is by far his best work. He has moved into the contemporary Native American music world but kept the essence of his roots in all his music. Heartily recommended!
223327,2,The Bird Man and the Lap Dancer,Excelent read. Diverse short stories for someone on the go. Each story made me anxious for the next adventure.
223397,2,Craptastically Crappy Crap!,"It should be called ""The Crap Prophecy"" because it's crap. But it's some of the most horribly horrible crap from the whole New Age (newage, rhymes with ""sewage"") genre. Therefore, it makes for hilarious reading. Riotous laughter and hilarity ensues when realizing that all sorts of scented-candle loving people believe in this book's message. Vibrate until you're invisible! Indeed."
223400,2,WOW,THIS BOOK FROM THE VERY FIRST PAGE KEEPS YOU ON EDGE. IT MAKES YOU THINK ABOUT LIFE WITHIN ITSELF AND YOU START MAKING CHANGES.
223538,2,"Nice, thick but no edging","It's a heavy item when delivered.. so have a handtruck ready. It's a heavy plastic but there is no edging if you want it for ""water"" protection as in my wood floor garage. I'm going to HomeDepot and pick up some plastic wall edging for a few buck to ""contain"" any water that it collects. Amazing my Sorent is just 14' long so I had to get something for the last 3 feet from the door. The next size was 24' I believe."
223624,2,Economy watch; gets the job done!,"Simple to use for just about anybody. Looks okay, but the belt looks and feels too toyish. However, if you are looking for an inexpensive digital watch with no non-sense functions that'd last a long time, I think this watch will serve you well."
223659,2,THREE DAYS GRACE:,"Three days grace rocks! As others, I listened to the Three Days Grace player on the web and fell in love with them! I could not wait to get the cd! I have always had favorite bands, but this one is the best ever! When i bought the cd, i have listened to it every single day, i just didnt feel right without listening to it lol! I totally suggest u get this cd, and it deserved a 5 out of 5 stars instead of for but ya know.....\m/katelynn"
223747,2,Great Product,I purchased this device about one month ago to use in a presentation. I've used it 6 or 7 times since then and it operates perfectly. I have used it up to 15' to 20' from my laptop without issue. It is small and fits the palm of the hand nicely. I presented a technical learning course with well over 200 slides (death by Powerpoint) and it is absolutely flawless. A great purchase and a bargain for the money. Order with confidence.
223755,2,Webshifters trilogy,I loved most of Julie E. Czerneda's books and this one is no exception. Good plot and character development.
223759,2,HP 35s Scientific Calculator,"I wasn't used to the double screen format, but this was the only one that was allowed for the Washington State Civil Engineering Professional Engineer license exam. It's a very nice calculator but takes a little getting used to. Now I use it exclusively for my work."
223812,2,Englebert Humperdinck: Public Enemy No. 19,"What an incredible surprise ""Love is the Reason"" is! This album--an Englebert Humperdinck essential--is, hands down, the most revolutionary of adult contemporary releases by any artist. Never have I been more shocked and, strangely, enlightened by such a cynical and misanthropist recording by the usually happy-go-lucky Humperdinck. As the album title suggests, love really IS the reason! But not the reason for what you might expect; although Humperdinck's songs are obstensibly very light, the listener senses a bit of sarcasm that makes you wonder if good ol' Humpy isn't hitting the bottle a little more often these days (remember the 70s!?). A truly terrific buy from an extraordinarily gifted artist!!"
223938,2,Does the job.,"I bought this in 2008 directly from Amazon. It cost $22 back then, and arrived within a week with Free Super Saving Shipping (which is basically standard shipping). It arrived securely in a cardboard shipping box. Nothing was damaged during shipping and all materials were new.It does what it's suppose to do, which is hold my clothes while I'm traveling.The material is made out of cheap fabric, but it's durable. None of the seams are broken, nothing is tearing, there are no holes or anything, zipper works just fine, shoulder straps works. Shoulder strap is adjustable. There is a zippered front pocket compartment, and pocket compartments on each side of the duffel."
223954,2,One pretty good dance cd,I enjoy the way the A Teens take the great music of the original ABBA and put it to new modern dance beats
224053,2,Good storyline and art,"I enjoyed this one a lot, the visuals are quite good. They had an interesting concept and went with it. Green Lantern is a great series overall."
224076,2,A unique and addictive sound,"Despite not being their most recent release, this CD remains my favorite Carbon Leaf CD. For those not familiar with their sound, I'd have to call it a mix of mellow to moderate rock and folk music with a significant Irish influence.Songs such as ""The Boxer"" and ""Mary Mac"" will draw you to the CD initially, while the lyrics in songs such as ""Maybe Today"" and ""Toy Soldiers"" will keep you coming back.If after your purchase of this CD you want to expand your Carbon Leaf collection, I would then ask you this: Do you find yourself more attracted to the irish element or the lyrics? If it is the irish element then I would tell you to pick up Ether-Electrified Porch Music next. If its the lyrics, I would recommend Indian Summer."
224088,2,More intense than her other workouts,"I bought this as I was looking for something with a bit more intensity and this was it. Its fast paced and sometimes I have hard a time keeping up! I usually include it in my workout when I need a boost. I love the music only option as well. Music is 80's, BUT, its a perfect walking beat. This has become a staple in my workout."
224113,2,Great but heavy on the sopranos,"Beautiful patriotic music, but be warned that most of the tracks are heavy on the sopranos, which seems odd for songs such as Anchors Away and the Marine Corps Hymn."
224244,2,Pretty and functional,"Bought this in the pink polka dot for my little girl's room to store some of the bigger toys. It's great for the price. My only complaint is that it isn't lined on the inside. Other than that, it is a nice piece. Very roomy inside, fabric is soft and pretty , and seems pretty durable. We will be using this piece for many years!"
224312,2,"Great, fun album - Novelty","Barbara Streisand does the Bette Midler thing by singing fun, campy songs. Although his came out before Bette hit the scene, the idea of happy silly songs still has room for two divas to perform them! Although not raunchy as Bette, this album does have its share of laughs.A highlight on this CD is the Minute Waltz. Who knew? It's a gem and listen-able for the whole family!"
224313,2,Smart and Sexy,"Derailed is a very smart and sexy thriller. Clive Owen and Jennifer Aniston have never been better than here, and the chemistry between them is just fantastic. There are a lot of twists that will catch you by surprise."
224341,2,Great Product!,"This is a terrific lubricant. Liquid Silk feels natural, it doesn't dry sticky like most other lubricants, and the taste is mild. The first time my partner and I used it, we instantly loved it. We'll never use a different lubricant unless it touts to beat Liquid Silks formula! This particular 8.45 oz pump bottle it the perfect size and the hand pump keeps the outside of the bottle from getting slippery."
224368,2,This book WILL help you setup Linux,"I've tried a couple of different books on installing Linux and this is the only one that was of any help. In one evening I set up my sound card, printer, and network!The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that it lacks any discussion on Perl or C that you can find in almost every other Linux book."
224372,2,Weight Watchers Cookbook,This cookbook contains great recipes and innovative cooking ideas for those following the Weight Watchers food plan. I highly recommend it.
224427,2,The American Pimp!,It was so startling because I've never seen anything so real. And the music was just fascinating and soulful. I liked this very much.
224451,2,Great Experience!,"The assembly instructions were very clear, and it took about 2 1/2 to 3 hours to assemble. The parts fit well -- they were all included -- and there were no surprises. Our family likes everything about the unit. We recommend using sand to fill the base for a heavy, but very sturdy, system. The sand was about $35 at our local Home Depot and the unit remained steady during some recent windy weather. A family poll yielded no negatives!"
224497,2,Amazing,"I had to read this collection for a college course over 6 years ago...I've held this book close to my heart ever since. Didion's writing style is pure and uncluttered, cutting directly to the bone. All the essays are wonderful, but ""Goodbye to All That,"" about the author's young adulthood in New York, is worth the price of the entire collection on its own."
224546,2,Things Fall Apart,"The product took a fairly long time to get to me, however when it did i was pleased with the decent condition that it was in."
224574,2,"Dark, satyrical and undeniably humorous.","Without a doubt, Director's Cut is one of the funniest, most demented comics I have ever read. Johnny is wonderfully rendered as a tool of his ever increasing insanity and ""other"" forces, in a hopeless attempt just to be left to live his own life without being harassed by the world. The content of this book deserves five stars, unfortunately, the construction suffers. After reading the book once, the spine had split and pages began pouring out. If you do purchase this book (I highly recommend you do so) be extremely careful in turning the pages, as they will come out very easily."
224624,2,More of Bobby Vinton's Greatest Hits,"I was so happy when I found this CD because it contained ""Petticoat White"". Who knew that a single song would be so hard to find. It's one of my dad's favorites, and he didn't want the anthology which had more songs than he wanted, so this CD was perfect for him, as it had all of his ""must have"" songs and it didn't cost over $100.00."
224702,2,Three Pee-ny Opera,"After being really disappointed in ""Bat Boy"" I didn't have high expectations for ""Urinetown"". Bathroom humor isn't my thing, but this musical is much cleverer than a few potty jokes. Best of all, the music is the most engaging I've heard from Broadway in a long time. It really does remind me of one of my old favorites, The Threepenny Opera."
224786,2,Jillian Michaels,"This video kicked my butt! It works but only if you give it your all and do it at least every other day. Jillian works you hard, but she gets you into shape!"
224863,2,Red Bull X-fighter.,A gift for my son. He has watched it several times and is impressed with the quality of the production and the exciting competition. A very entertaining DVD.
224886,2,An overview of Botvinnik!,"A very detailed overview of Botvinnik's career covering his ""Golden Years"". The book covered the period between 1948 to 1970 whereby he became World Champion and went through the trials and tribulations of losing the championship and winning it back in a rematch on two occasions. This book clearly showed the mental strength of a great player - of his ability to stand up after falling down! The games demonstrated the maturity of Botvinnik over the years. Similar strategic ideas were referenced to earlier games in the book or to his other masterpieces. The analyses were brief and straight to the point. It may be a little difficult for beginners to understand the notes without the guidance of a chess player with considerable strength. This book is most suitable for an intermediate and master strength player. The brief introduction given by Bernard Cafferty at the beginning of the book serves little purpose. It is not Botvinnik's story that is interesting but his games!"
224977,2,"A slight shift for McCarthy, yet powerfully successful as a story","Certainly a departure in subject matter (following a father and son through a post-apocalyptic wasteland) for McCarthy, though his familiar style remains. This is effectively somewhere between science fiction and horror, and yet the tale focuses resolutely on the experiences of the characters, their hopes and strivings. No explanation is given for how the world ended up in this state, yet none is really needed. Powerful, harrowing, beautifully written."
225017,2,"Great weight, but a little large","I got the black and orange version of this gun for playing Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2009 since playing with just the Wii remote was painful. I'm not an avid gamer, but I enjoy them. I'm also not a hunter. The Perfect Shot has a great weight to it and I found the action to be pretty good. Any delay could easily be attributed to my reaction time and unsteady hand. My only problem with this gun is that the grip is just a little too large for my hands. I'm a male that would wear a size large or extra large glove. This gun made playing the game enjoyable, despite the slight pain from the size of the grip."
225031,2,Very informative book -- son and I both love it!,"I bought this book for my five-year-old son for Christmas (we have a guinea pig). I was surprised by how much information was presented -- but never in a dry or dull way. My son was engaged with the book and happily read it cover to cover, with a bit of help on words like ""Abyssinian.""Not only is there information in the book that would be helpful to first-time (or first time in a long time) guinea pig owners, but it is filled with neat facts and history on the animal. I learned a few things myself!I also appreciated that the author did not shy away from mentioning that guinea pigs don't usually live as long as other pets might. He presented the information gently, and with the same conversational tone the rest of the book had...by the end, it felt like we were friends, bound by our common interest in this wonderful pet. An excellent read for kids and their parents too!"
225033,2,Timex dress watch,The watch is as described and pictured. It is very nice. I would have liked a better system for making the band smaller. It doesn't come with enough links to remove if you have a small wrist. So It is worn as a bracelet now.
225078,2,Excellent aid for quilters.,"Product is a perfect aid for quilters. The price is better than I can find in any local quilting store, and with super saver shipping, the price is right."
225199,2,Baby loves it!,"I purchased this for a friend of mine, and her son loves it. He is only 3 and a half months old, and she is able to swing him to sleep in it! A great buy!"
225246,2,Big Sceen Solitaire,"Product has larger numerals that most comparable games of its kind do not have and I find that helpful. Interesting aspect: when you WIN a game - and know you are going to do so - sometimes there seems no more cards to take from the pile(and you need a couple more cards to complete the WIN. Then when you get a couple of Kings put away, the game just completes the WIN - taking the missing cards from ""who knows where"" as they aren't shown. Don't know if this is an error in programming, but it doesn't seem to bother the WIN. Other than that, it plays fine. Would like to see the one card turnover instead of always the three card turnover."
225403,2,Amazing Woman and Artist,I've met and worked with Josephine on a collaboration between my poetry and her photographs. There is something especially haunting about this collection and seeing them in her studio made it that much more interesting. I highly recommend this book. If you can find it of course.
225407,2,Yes! It is finished!,"Excellent book to help us fix our eyes upon Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith! Praise God from who all blessings flow!"
225571,2,very pleased,"I have been looking for this product all over town. I had one for over 15 years and could not find a replacement. Until I did a search and found this one on here. I received it in a matter of days, and started using it that day. I am very pleased with my choice. I just wish I could of had a choice of color.. Oh well I am still happy with it."
225660,2,A few gems to be found,"If you're a David Gilmour or Pink Floyd fan, this DVD is a must have for your collection. David Gilmour's performance of Marooned was absolutely phenomenal. Hank Marvin's performance was amazing.You will most likely find yourself pushing the skip button a number of times, however there are some spectacular performances also. This show could have been much better if other Masters of the Strat like Eric Clapton would have attended."
225821,2,A Game of Shadows,A good second story to the Sherlock Holmes. Good movie effects. Actors are as great as in the first movie.
225847,2,Emotions run deep.,"This book, as all Kathleen Eagle's I've read thus far, is hard to put down. With two parallel stories, you can generally put a book down when the stories switch back and forth. Not this one! Excellent!"
225909,2,A Great Doom Metal Band,"When I heard about Yob being signed to metal blade I thought great! a doom metal act that'll get exposure. Before Yob I don't think Metal Blade had a doom metal band since Trouble. But I did wonder, what kind of doom metal band would Metal Blade sign? Whoa! Musically I would say they have a stoner/doom feel to them, but they don't have a huge drug user image about them. The music is true doom, slow and heavy, with very long songs and very few songs. If you like doom metal, you will like it. If you are just a true metalhead, you should still give them a listen."
225910,2,Love them,"My husband love his short. He can't wait to go on vaction he loves the color and want me to buy more, thank you"
225917,2,Captures what I've been doing & trying to teach,Database Modeling for Smarties is exactly that. This book captures the techniques that I have been using for a number of years but have not been able to capture concisely. I found the discussion of object-relational mapping very useful and would love to send copies to the database designers that I work with. The reading is easy and the only negative would be that the chapter on development team values & characteristics seems to be misplaced. However the chapter was good reading as an intermission in the middle of the book.
225969,2,xmas gift,It is nice to use great for turning things over wide area and a great handle. Light weight and washes well. A good item to have..
225976,2,A must-read,"This is the fundamental book in attachment theory. The first to really understand this important issue. Nice to read, simple and very informative."
225992,2,Blood and Chocolate,"I found this book to be highly captivating. I couldn't put it down!! The Werewolf falling in love with a human is not a new concept. However I feel that the problems Vivian goes through are ones that many teens can relate to. Falling in love, deciding what to do, not knowing fully where one fits in, these are all decisions that one has to face. The story is fast moving, with great description, it keeps one guessing what is going to happen next. This book brings out ones own imagination. I think kids would love to read it! Grades 8 and up."
226048,2,Great book,"This book was pretty good ,but i think they should make a sequel where brandon can fall in love again and be happy. Then the book will be awsome! It was really good though i cried like the whole time i read it. Lurlene Mcdaniel always writes awsome books!!! keep on writing!!!make the angel book a series!!!!!"
226073,2,Exactly what I'd hoped for.,"Just bought a new desk and wanted to protect it before I scratched it up like I seem to do with everything I own. This is a great desk pad. Doesn't reflect light, stays put, and is the perfect size. I have my 23"" all in one pc, keyboard, and mouse all resting on it with some room to spare to give you an idea. Great slightly cushioned surface area for writing, using the mouse, etc.... Couldn't be happier."
226139,2,okay so far,"Just got back from five days to Evolution valley and back. The tent is reasonably roomy for two, with room to sit up at the high point. We had very little rain. We stayed dry inside, there was some condensation on the inside of the fly, and some on the tent, but not a lot. My only complaint is that they say it is best to use 4 guy lines and they only provide two."
226166,2,Schiffman = love,"Schiffman is the coolest. His tattoos rock, and his judo is like Menudo. I'm gonna use my company's training budget to buy his books just cuz he's cool."
226172,2,Another very helpful book by Elizabeth George,"This book focuses on the 23rd Psalm, and as always, Elizabeth George walks readers through every line, weaving her own personal stories throughout to entertain and illustrate each promise. Her heartwarming style and obvious, extensive knowledge of the Bible make this book a must-read for every Christian woman (and man!). Elizabeth George has written other important books, several of which I have read and re-read. I highly recommend this!"
226372,2,Goover Flair,"We are very pleased with the Flair. It is light, maneuverable and powerful. It has great suction and has a low profile that lets it get under chairs and other furniture. I would recommend the Flair to anyone looking for a light duty vacuum."
226424,2,my first audio update,"Tis was my first audio system. I bought it for my laptop to view films, listen to music. The first impression is wow, such huge sound from such little speaker! The design is very attractive and takes little space!By the way i bought it at Sears for 50 bucks! Only 50 bucks! Amazon shame on you!Now i bought 5.1 onkyo receiver,elite pioneer central speaker and two infinity bookshelf speaker. So i am using this jvc system as add on to my new purchase! These little speakers are great for surround sound! The only thing subwoofer is non-powered, so i have to use jvc av box too to make my subwoofer alive! I plug wire from receiver to aux!In general this cute receiver worth its money!"
226425,2,Put down that Danielle Steel novel and read some Burgess!,"As usual, Anthony Burgess succeeds in creating a completely believable, yet overwhelmingly unsettling other world that the reader could even see him or herself living in. I heartily recommend this book - Burgess's command of the English language in such a tight grip that he easily runs cynical circles around his audience, leaving him or her wondering how they ever arrived so smoothly at such a grotesque conclusion."
226458,2,Works Fine,"This paper cutter does the job, clean cuts, no problems. It is made of plastic and feels kind of cheap but it works just fine and looks nice. I have had no problems but I would not suggest it for someone who uses a paper cutter a lot. You need to spend around $60 or more for a paper cutter if you use it daily."
226519,2,great idea and book,"This book is clear, concise, and presents great information. Well worth the price to better understand the ""upside of anger"". If you want to learn how feelings and expressions of anger can be used to better understand yourself and others and improve your relationships, this book is for you."
226521,2,A Genuinely Good Book,"This is a good publication for some lesser-known rags that can othewise be very difficult to find. Among the more well-known pieces are SJ's Fig Leaf Rag, Rose Leaf Rag and Searchlight Rag and James Scott's Grace and Beauty. There are, however, only a few challenges in this book, and they mainly come from my personal favourite, The Entertainer's Rag. This book is small, but well worth your money."
226550,2,An incredible example of perserverance.,This amazing Lady is incredibly tough! Her story of all that she and others endured under Castro's horrific regime in Cuba should be a must read for all those who want to know the real truth about 'life under the Castros'. Forget about 'the media' and celebrities who were/are pampered by the dictator and his cronies. This is a first hand account. I highly recommend this book!
226597,2,These will make you slap your granny.,"These eggs are delicious and I mean DELICIOUS! Who would have thought pickled eggs could be so addictive? After my wife and I finished the jar we reverently washed it and swore to keep it to remind us to order more. I swear, we almost cried upon eating the last one. Meawhile, we've tried to make our own but no, these eggs cannot be duplicated. These little guys are life-changing. Buy some now. RIGHT NOW."
226711,2,I want to watch this movie over and over!,"Most of the negative reviews I've read on this movie are directed at the musical score, in that it was put together by amateurs and sounds it. I have to agree that the score is a little rough, but the failing is not one that anyone but an opera snob would really notice. Most of the songs are better than anything you'd hear on the radio and as good as anything Andrew Lloyd ""I stole it from Pink Floyd"" Weber would throw together.Really, the concept is so solid that the songs could be entirely made up of cats in heat screeching and you would still want to see it at least once. And then twice. Maybe half a dozen times...this week."
226725,2,"Beautiful photographs, interesting reading","With stunningly beautiful pictures of California poppies from a truly talented photographer, Golden Poppies of California is a visual feast. The state flower of California, it is well represented in this collection of photographs. While it is the primary flower in the book, it also includes other flowers commonly found in the same area as the poppies. While leafing through the book the reader soon comes to realize why this flower would be chosen for the state flower. The author provides the reader with historical and other information on California and the history of the poppy. Golden Poppies of California is recommended for people who enjoy coffee table books, and especially anyone who likes poppies."
226832,2,Authentic,"Unlike other colognes I have purchased in the past from various retailers, this cologne is completely authentic and actually Nautica brand."
226834,2,You CAN beat the original,I really liked the original Keasbey Nights and I liked Everything Goes Numb even better. This new version is better than both in my opinion. It combines the sonic variety of Keasbey Nights with the amazing skill of Streetlight as well as a waaaaaay improved sound quality. Keasbey Nights vol 2 also flows way better as an album than the original and is much easier to listen to. I think whining about it being old material is garbage. Anyone who buys this album knows very well that it contains no new material. I can't wait to hear the next Streetlight release and a full length B.O.T.A.R album.
226858,2,Vionnet book,"a fantastic book with a lot of picutres, informations and even patterns of madeleine vionnet's fahion and art, a biography of a great lady"
226879,2,Russia and political murder.,"Excellent essay on the use of and the intellectual 'reasoning' behind murder as a means to conquer or to keep political power in Russia.This book covers the whole history of Russia from Ivan the Terrible to Gorbachev.It evaluates brilliantly the writings of well known (Lenin, Trotski, Bakunin) but also of nearly forgotten revolutionaries (Pestel, Netchaev, Morozov, Heinzen and others).The author proves convincingly that the liquidation of former allies, opponents or whole segments of the population was not a characteristic of the Bolshevik regime alone.A brilliant work from the author who predicted that, if the Communist party would lose power in the USSR, the country would fall apart."
226984,2,Great workout music,I love this to exercise to. It keeps me from being bored to death on the treadmill. I see another detail everytime I watch it!
227007,2,One of the few good books for men,"Most Christian books for men tend to focus on the sensitive side of the male; the caring, compassionate, loving kind. Nothing wrong with that, but we know as men there is something in our souls that long for adventure. That is where ""Wild at Heart"" shines. You will not be sorry buying this book for yourself, or if you are a wife, buying it for your husband. It has been an ""eye opener"" for me, to say the least."
227014,2,The Heart of God,"I want begin by saying this book (other than the Bible) has been the most helpful and insightful books that I have ever read. God has used it to truly take another leap in my Christian walk. Please note that Mr. Eldrege is an artistic person, like many of us are, including myself. He uses words to promote emotion and clearity. I have since read other books of his, they are also remarkable...In this book Eldrege compares William Wallace to Jesus. He does not do anything out of context. He wants us to see the value to men that he had to offer. William Wallace died fighting for the freedom of his countrymen, he went against the flow in every way. Sound like someone you know? Or for some of you; heard of?This is a great book to say in the least. I recommend it to anyone who wants to live life to its fullest."
227015,2,"Excellent read for both men, and the women who love them...","This is an excellent book for both men, and the women who love them. My three sons are going to read this as well.(Matthew 8:22) But Jesus told him, ""Follow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.""Learn to live!~Ken"
227035,2,one of the best romantic comdies ever made,Serendipity by far i think is one of the best Romantic comdies ever made because it's romantic and funny. The actors are great and I think the story is wonderful I thought it was one of the best Romance stories I ever heard. Also I think that this would happen in real life if you believe in fate amd destiny.
227045,2,A golden gem! The best!,"Over the years I've owned two copies of this, and recently had to buy a third - alas, again only available in VHS. I wish they would release it on DVD. This is one I love sharing with friends. In DVD, I'd be able to give it as gifts to new friends. I enjoy watching it, but how wonderful it is to show this one for the first time to someone who has never seen it. I've done this so many times, and everyone who sees it wants it. Truly it is ""wonderful"" from the heart!! But, then Ruben Blades ALWAYS makes magic in all his many ranges of creative talents. Gracias Ruben!"
227050,2,Ray does country proud,"This was one of the very first ""collaboration"" records long before they became a fad. On this record, Ray Charles demonstrates why he was one of a kind as he seamlessly moves into the country genre with an album fullof duets (the one with the Oak Ridge Boys being the exception). The songs are terrific and Ray's terrific singing voice helps raise the bar for everyone else on the record. My personal favorites are the tracks with Hank Williams, Jr., George Jones, and B.J. Thomas, although there's no a bad track here. In fact, most are standoutsand the record as a whole ranks as one of the best country albums I own."
227107,2,Great Projects!,"This is a great book with lots of good projects. I am now in my second year as a woodcarver and find the projects not too difficult to complete. I have finished several of the projects, The Missouri Mule, The Cowboy, The Banjo Player and The Cow. I ordered all the wood for every project in the book and have since band sawed all the projects so that I can quickly pick up the next challenge. Harold Enlow, the author, is well known and respected in the carving community and has a solid reputation as an instructor.Carving Figure Caricatures in the Ozark Style"
227108,2,"In Christ, all things are new!","This collection of traditional hymns is breathtaking in its scope. The arrangements are fresh, the musical styles are varied and the performances are fun, poignant and full of surprises. I love the use of such non-traditional instruments as the whistle, ullian pipes and various percussions. There's jazz, rap, Celtic and folk all represented here with professional musical precision that's a joy to behold. And the messages are ""tried and true"". It's also nice to see so many songs for Mary, Our Blessed Mother included in this collection. Bravo, Fr. Stan for another great album!"
227110,2,Windchimes & Water,"While this CD was not exactly the sound I was looking for as it falls a bit flat by sounding mostly the same the whole way through, it has little treats in it, like the trickling water parts, and best of all the windchimes that tantalize the senses for a bit. After awhile the same old flutes bore me though... Overall happy, but if you like any uplift in your massage music, I recommend choosing a different CD."
227185,2,Foretaste of womagic,"The music on this cd is really cool! It is not the more complex Bobby womack we would know later, but all of the soul is intact. Check it out if you can."
227291,2,Amazing,"The fit is unbelievable, unlike most denim style pants they don't bunch up when you need to extend a leg while climbing ordered three more pairs"
227341,2,"Used for a 15"" TV - Great results","I really like this bracket - the quality is very high and it is a very heavy well constructed unit. We only hung a 15"" LCD TV from it, but it felt much stronger like it would hold a much larger unit. Overall I couldn't be happier with it. If it had been a bit less expensive, I would have given it 5 stars."
227406,2,Excellent for the price !,i bought these recently and was a little skeptical due to the low price but i was pleasantlysurprised. The noise reduction is awesome ! As for audio quality they sound terrible with thenoise reduction off but 100% better with it on. They still sound a little muddy to me lackingin the mids and highs compared to Bose but for less than one third the price I can live with it.For the money I would buy them anytime !
227407,2,"Good product, It does what it is meant for","A good product with & snug fit. Good sound repoduction- it may not have the deepest low's but very good anyway.I have an older model treadmill that is very noisy, with these on they reduced the noise level where I don't have to blast the volume of the sound system or the tv.A good investment at a good price."
227507,2,The best Final Fantasy movie ever,"This is the movie that all the fans were waiting for since the game, too shame that we got first ""The spirit within"" (don't take me wrong, the movie is fine, but not THIS fine). Special thanks to the new scenes. This is a movie for the fans of the saga and everyone else."
227746,2,True Crime Readers - Read This,"I was most impressed with this book. I am an avid reader, especially of true crime and mystery. Good true crime books are hard to find, and rarer still are those where the author allows me to ""decide for myself."" This story is presented in an understandable, yet exciting way, and by the end of the book I felt that I had peaked inside the lives of the perpetrator and the victims. Mr. Walsh obviously knew the people, took the time to gather facts, and used his remarkable talent to give readers a great story."
227749,2,Flashy,"I love this watch. I'm wearing it right now as I write this review. It may seem too big in numbers, but it fits perfectly on my wrist and I'm 170, 6""1 which is pretty thin. The watch just looks really nice, classy, flashy, and pretty baller. It also has a stopwatch which looks pretty interesting as it spins wildly and may come to use one day. It's not really heavy, but I guess I never really had a light watch. It doesn't really bother me though. The hands have glow in the dark stuff on it, so you can still tell time in the dark.another plus is that you can say your watch was half a g. :)"
227752,2,Sweet power-pop bliss -- with half the calories!,"Shimmering Beach Boys harmonies + solid toonage = Silver Sun heaven.One's first Silver Sun experience can be a bit disconcerting because the music is first of all so damn sunny! And then there are those high-tone vocals which come dangerously close to approximating The Chipmunks. But maybe that's what makes it so unique and, ultimately, so addictive.It would be nice if Amazon could provide at least one song sample here (ahem) because this stuff is so hook-heavy that even one of those pathetically small mp3s would be ample bait for s/he who is fishing for an authentic power-pop punch.Even if you can only afford a used copy (and I know that's all I can afford!), don't let this one get away. It will provide hours and hours of quality listening pleasure."
227756,2,Sting - Brand New Day Tour,"I was very excited when I heard Sting was coming to dvd, as I am a huge fan of Sting and also the legend players he works with. Overall the disc is great, apart from an annoying audio problem when watching it from the 5.1 source through a non 5.1 system( it seems fine when using stereo, but default setting is 5.1) I don't know if it is o.k through a 5.1 system cause I don't have one, but from what I've heard it is o.k. Manu Katche's drumming is no where as good as Vinnie's from the album, ( I am a HUGE Vinnie fan.) but he does play some really tasetful stuff in ""englishman in new york"" and some great shuffles in other tracks. Dominic Miller(guitar) is a legend Sting makes this dvd happen ( apart from reading words from his music stand in some songs) His song writing is flawless........ If you are into Sting, you need to have it."
227761,2,Bittersweet,Unbelievable---This is the kind of Love music that you put on for your girlfriend and she moans--Some of the best production and heart warming melodies I have ever heard----try listening---I won't send roses---the bestFly me to the moon---melts me
227906,2,Terry Wynne,"""Maverick,"" for the most part, was a unique western that used humor, film noir and lively plots, romance, interesting character actors and good writing. Both James Garner and Jack Kelly had smarts, charisma, charm and were sort of anti-heroes, trying to avoid risking their lives, but always, in the end, doing the right thing. This first season had a lot of good episodes. It did tend to sometimes delve into the typical cowboys and Indians at times, but for the most part, it was the unique show that stands out from it's era in the late 50s. Most of it holds up very well today."
227910,2,Awesome album,"Although Tom Petty has already been rock & rolling for a few decades, but this is actually the first time that I listened to any of his classic rock hits. Tom petty and the Heartbreakers' album ""Anthology - through the years"" collects the best hits of the artist in two discs. In this album, I found an artist uses many different styles to perform and present his work, from melancholy blues, sensual ballads, to rousing rock and roll. It shows the talents of the artist and the reason for him being the classic rock star of the time.Simple and melodic guitar chords accompanied with the calm and uncomplicated rhythm, ""Free falling"" is one of the soft rock ballads that I love the most from this collection. ""Jammin' me"" and ""Mary Jane's Last Dance"" are both great tracks from the album that shows what Petty is most well-known for - Rock & Roll. Overall, I think the album is a great collection of classic rock and for the avid Petty fans; this album should be the must-own."
228029,2,Works great,Just a plug for the scanner - I just ordered one but it's not yet received. Rated the only best buy by 5/01 Consumer Reports for 600 DPI scanners - they loved it. I'll check back in once I've got it set up.Addendum: 11/21/01 - I'm perfectly happy with it; nice quality.
228041,2,Hard Boiled 70s Style,"I love Philip Marlow! Robert Altman and Elliott Gould team up to make this adaptation outstanding. This is what cinema is all about. Clever camera angles, strange locations, surperb acting and all draped in a 70s haze, part pot smoke, part porno. Check out a very young ""Arnold"" as well as Ross' and Rachel's dad when he was the hippest Jew in Hollywood. This is classic noir. Gangsters, molls, drunk writers, bad cops, and Marlow. What these folks did with a convoluted Chandler book is a work of art."
228074,2,:::THIS IS BEST DEBUT ALBUM:::,I have listened to many different bands esspecially their debut albums. while these are the ones that make them famous they are not always the best. i had a chance to see these guys rock out in las vegas at the vans warped tour. wow what a show they put on they tore the house down if there was one! well anyway buy this album!
228125,2,Ottimo per il trading end of day,"Un ottimo testo per costruirsi una strategia di trading di medio-lungo periodo utilizzando dati end of day.Con questo metodo la Dow Theory viene applicata in modo oggettivo, togliendo qualsiasi area di soggettività."
228184,2,Very Unusual Western,"Rod Taylor plays a gunslinger named CHUKA (he was raised by a Chuck Wagon cook...and nicknamed chuka boy by the cowboys). He is on the trail during a winter storm and comes across a group of starving Indians. He shares their fire and gives them what little food he has. He leaves and finds refuge at a Cavalry Fort run by John Mills (an ex-British Officer and his SGT....Ernest Borgnine). Also at the fort is his long lost love and her niece. Chuka tells Mills that the Indians are starving and will attack the fort to get food. The plot thickens with other characters in the fort. Not a great movie but very entertaining and a pretty good ""shoot-em-up"". Worth buying for it's differences from other westerns."
228202,2,My favorite of them all!,"I'm a big fan of the intrepid Mrs. Pollifax and especially enjoy this book. The intrigue, adventure and characters are wonderful and I find real involvement with the plot. Don't miss a chance to live the spying life vicariously through Emily Pollifax - especially the earlier novels which I have found are much better than her more recent additions!"
228241,2,The most magnificent and romantic movie,"I watched this movie about 7 years ago. Today, I watched it again on DVD. The plot, and the music greately touches me. Simply one of the most romantic movies."
228376,2,Pure Ear Candy,I too bought the tape when it first came out and WORE IT OUT. I just paid a lot for the CD (used) and it was worth every bit of it. How exciting to be listening to this album again. Love it.
228405,2,Powerful and refreshing angle on Holiday favorites. Get it!,"Gather powerhouse musicians, an orchestra, choir, and writer Rob Mathes, and what do you get? You get an incredible seasonal masterpiece of songs only available, until now, to select audiences. Rob Mathes has made a name for himself in the New York area as a powerful singer/song writer, who really knows how to put on a show. With his guest musicians Vanessa Williams, Michael McDonald, and David Sanborn, he has created a live CD that every household should have throughout the holidays! Keep it coming!"
228457,2,GREAT BUT DATED 3 DISC SET IS NICE BUT......................,"I am a big fan of Disney films. The animated classics will be forever imprinted in my mind. I do have a huge problem with any censorship! Unfortunately, the people at Disney decided to buckle under to it, because of a few cry babies complaining about racial stereotypes in some of their films. I know I am not the first to say this,but really are these people serious? I am Italian and German, do you think I have not seen my share of stereotyping in my 45 years on this planet? Why hasn't Stromboli from Pinochhio been altered for it's depiction of an Italian? It seems we are very selective with what we censor..hhmmm!I don't mind it because I know the characterization is just that and it doesn't reflect the entire race! Please stop censorship of any kind especially regarding these historic works of art. You can not change history you can only learn from it!"
228470,2,Goblets--a great game!,"This is a beautiful game that involves lots of strategy. We have one at home and I purchased this one as a gift for my nephews. The price here was great, so we are all happy ""Gobblers""!"
228518,2,i think this is a very good Cd,the only thing wrong with this Cd is that they have to many skits. they need to cut down on them
228539,2,Beautiful bed!,"This bed is good quality. The matress pad, blanket and pillow are cute and perfect for this bed. My girls use it and love it. The doll is so real and sweet its great to have a nice place to put her. Its easy to put together and can be taken a part easily for storage. I think this is the second thing to get after buying Annabell."
228549,2,Dale Bruning.... smooooth.....,"I once read, in the liner notes of an Ed Bickert album, about how refreshing it is to hear jazz that is ""quiet and pretty"". Such is the case here. No pyrotechnic chops or blistering arpeggios. Just simple, good, tasty jazz lines. Moore and Bruning blend together perfectly, as they have done before. If you're into the likes of Jim Hall, Ed Bickert, or Royce Campbell, you can't go wrong with this CD."
228570,2,Great little scanner,"This is a nice little scanner. It is small, scans nicely, easy to install and use... I have Vista, and it wasn't really any problem to install the software. i can't speak about the software b/c I don't use it much (I import into Photoshop), but it looks pretty simple to use. The push buttons are a breeze to use. I use this for my small business as my primary scanner and it works nicely. Good value overall..."
228599,2,an awesome experience,"This dvd is awesome! I'm in awe of Ian Anderson and have been since the 70's but this took my enchantment to another level withthe classical part incorporated into the rock. I thought it was well edited and included shots of the whole band. I really gota kick out of the expressions on the orchestra's faces and how they were enjoying their experience as well. If you're a fan ofJethro Tull, this will round out your collection."
228695,2,"51 - ""Stars""","Another incredibale episode of this wonderful series. If you love Breaking Bad, you will love how Walt enjoys his birthday!"
228707,2,Highly Entertaining,"This show has it all. Great characters. Talented actors. Drama, suspense, humor and a plot like no other on TV"
228809,2,Wonderful Machine!,"What Donvier started, Cuisinart perfected! There are a lot of great features to this machine. I like the 1.5 quart capacity, because most recipes that say they're 1 quart are actually more when frozen, so I rarely have leftover mix.The opening in the top makes it easy to start the freezing process without having the dasher stick to the can. It's also great for last-minute additions, which I do a lot because I generally add a bit of vodka at the end to keep my ice cream from getting too hard.I purchased an extra bowl and it's come in handy many, many times. Sometimes you don't want 1.5 quarts of the same flavor, so I'll make the custard base and turn it into two different flavors of ice cream and I can freeze them one after the other. The extra bowl also helps if I'm in a hurry and don't want to totally chill the mix. Then I chill it almost to the freezing point in one and move it to the second one. Buy an extra bowl!!"
228820,2,"Sharp, predictable. expectations met.","This router bit does exactly what it claims. Bevels a 30* edge with a fair degree of precision and consistency. Would have given it five stars, but my expectations were met, but not exceeded. This is a good tool. Used the router to build a rod-building planing form to home build a bamboo fly rod. Worked within the tolerances needed."
228822,2,a great effort!,"I was not a follower of spice girls in their heyday. However this cd did catch my eye . Half of the cd was good to down right GREAT. What I don't understand about most artist's out there now, is they can't make up their mind what type of music they really want to play or go after. This one is a great example, does she want to go into A ""POP MODE"" or A ""grunge type"" Personally I like the pop music option, this she has a natural knack for. If she continues on this track, I think this guy would buy everything she records."
228914,2,Many Wise Yet Simple Lessons,"This has become one of my favorite books. It is the same style that I use in my books - lots of mostly one to two page stories that all stand independently of each other. You can read them in the order presented or in any order that you'd like. Each story will teach you something about making your life a bit happier or a bit easier. I frequently tell one of her stories to my patients. ""The Woman on the Beach in Guaymas"" teaches the author that ""There is another way to do life,"" in contrast with her worry oriented focus. The stories will provoke just about every emotion you experience while illustrating basic Buddhist principles related to happiness. But you needn't be a Buddhist to understand or benefit from this book. You'll have an equal opportunity to increase your happiness regardless of your religious or philosophical orientation."
228922,2,"Clearcut, No- Nonsense, Immediately Applicable Advice","Teaches how to deal with potential criminals, harassing phone calls, stalkers, and manipulators...Gives you the knowledge and confidence to handle dangerous situations as soon as your instinct kicks in, and thereafter. Highly recommended."
228929,2,People need this book..,"This is a very informative and interesting guide to violence and how to prevent it. It spends a little too long focusing on the criminal mind instead of the average one, contrary to what the first few sections would have you believe. While this material on stalkers, mass murderers, and assassins is fascinating, it seemed to be more of a diversion from the central idea than a support for it. Still, De Becker is terribly knowledgable on how a desperate human mind works (for both attacker and attacked) and does a good job of relating it to the reader using stories, examples, and plain speech. The occassional tangent (on local news, for example) is forgivable, because of the importance of his message. We all have what it takes to take care of ourselves, if we only learn how to listen to ourselves."
229001,2,About time,"Good read - enjoyed Bethall since I was in college and picked up the old 'newspaper format' Spectator. About time someone explained what we all knew to be true. Everyone except, perhaps, the pointy heads that drive BMW's, live in exclusive communities, and rail incessantly about redistribution of wealth. Read this, Adam Smith, and P.G. Wodehouse and you will know all that is necessary to know about life."
229060,2,just listen to it,"this spanish group works with many layers of sound at once; so many it will make your head spin. but then they easily transition into a catchy rhythm that stays in your head for days. sounds of trains pulling into the station, car crashes, violins, speak n' spell (a la radiohead) merge with cool sounding electronic sounds. but this is not another soulless electronic album. 'una guerra muda' is a very moving piece, and any song with Abel Hernandez' voice will just melt your heart! I should also say that a few of these guys have a band called Migala which is also amazing- listen to 'Arde'."
229094,2,"Very Good Tasting But Could Be ""Bolder"" - Recommended","Tully's Coffee ""Italian Roast (Bold)"" K-Cups makes a very good cup of coffee in myKeurig B-40 B40 Elite Gourmet Single-Cup Home-Brewing System. This is a fairly strong tasting brew that has much more flavor than theCoffee People, Donut Shop K-Cups for Keurig Brewers (Pack of 50) [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging] I generally drink in the morning.I really enjoy the rich flavor of this coffee but my wife thinks it is ""slightly burnt"" tasting. It is not as ""bold"" asEmeril's Big Easy Bold Coffee for Keurig Brewers, 24-Count K-Cups (Pack of 2)when made on the machine's ""large"" cup setting.Recommended!CFH"
229168,2,A MUST READ FOR EVERYONE!!!,"Besides the Bible, this is a MUST READ for everyone, especially these days. William Cooper was a man of integrity, a man who served his country in Navy Intelligence. Later he discovered the truth about many things, one got the sense he would rather not know.But he TRULY died for his country!! READ THIS BOOK!!! It will confront, challenge and frighten you but it's information to ponder and remember.God bless you all."
229193,2,My daughter love this!,We got my daughter this and other mini kingdom dolls for Christmas. She loves them she is 6. My other daughter who is almost 3 loves them too. But this paticular one is only 12.99 at Walmart. These are great because they store easy and the shoes don't come off- a plus for my 3 not quite 3 year old. I highly recomend these. The castle is neat too. It satisfied my daughter to get several dolls and the castle for alot less money than the huge castle that was way overpriced for a piece of plastic. They just need a prince. Maybe they will make one soon. As to the previous review I saw one at walmart that was African American.
229262,2,Wow,The more I read these books the more it makes sense. Incredibly interesting and opens so many doors. Loved it
229324,2,For anyone who wants to be in a committed relationship.,"I could not put this book down. Ellen not only gives you great information but the stories that support the advice make it come alive. I've started doing what she says and I have a date this Thursday, Friday and Saturday night. I'm buying a copy for everyone of my single friends!"
229381,2,Pure Pop Perfection,This album has so much emotional heart to it.The song you send me flying is destined tobe a classico.Fromm 1-10 I give this 9.5
229435,2,stephanie plum - she rocks!!,"Readers of the Evanovich's previous Stephanie Plum mysteries will be laughing out loud at her latest adventure - the best part: new characters which really add to the fun. The ongoing saga of Joe and Stephanie! The outrageous antics of Grandma Mazur! The endless peddling of Rex on the soupcan! All I can say is ""Day my make!!"" (Read it and you'll understand). Run to your nearest bookstore!!"
229464,2,Very nice plotting and curve fitting program,"Our research group uses Kaleidagraph daily for plotting and fitting data. The program is easy to use and powerful. We have used Kaleidagraph for years, and were very happy to see the new features in version 3.5. I would recommend Kaleidagraph for anyone who needs to do scientific plotting and curve fitting."
229486,2,Kurt says Goodbye,"Vonnegut rambles like he always does and you immediately feel at home. The book reads like any of his novels and yet, somewhere deep down, it feels like the last one. I hope I'm wrong."
229488,2,"It's original, even when he copies himself!","OK, let's be honest. He's old and admits himself that he ain't the writer he used to be. That being said, I very much ENJOYED reading this book. I laughed out loud. I thought about life, as corn as that sounds. It's like a long rambling, crazy, letter from an old friend you miss. I can't be ojbective and literary here. I can never do that when a book captures my imagination and makes me see that trying to be a clever critic is so much fooey fooey. Timequake is a great letter from an old friend. If Kurt V. isn't your cup of tea this book will annoy you. If you really love the guy's work you have to read it. Sure it's the same old stuff in a new package, just like an old friend you haven't seen. If you have a sense of humor and imagination-- and can forigive the faults of an old fart, you are going to love this book. Todzilla, Indonesia"
229526,2,"Pets are secret agents, don't trust them...","pets may not be secret agents, but this movie is a blast. this movie one of those that you can watch over and over again and not get bored of it. it has good animation and a good cast. this movie rocks it's a good movie for the whole family."
229553,2,Great for the price... especially for kids.,"I bought these for my 9 year old daughter and they have held out quite well (several months so far)... especially when you consider that they are in the care of a forgetful and sometimes careless kid. The best part about these is that, if they do get stepped on and crushed, ordering another pair is noooooooooo problem. They don't mask sound very well, because I can hear what she's playing on her iTouch (some may find that annoying), but to me, it's that much easier to keep tabs on what she's viewing."
229557,2,Amazing Sound for the Price,"I purchased these headphones for my office PC for listening to voicemails as they were the cheapest headphones I could find on Amazon. For a few bucks, I couldn't care about the sound quality.I just got them today and plugged them into my home computer to test them out.And all I can say is WOW. The bass on these is *incredible*. I'm blown away.These are so good I'm going to keep them at home and buy another pair for the office!Amazing sound, extremely light weight, comfortable, and inexpensive. Can't ask for more."
229589,2,like it,WAS A VERY GOOD MOVIE HAD SOME FUNNY PARTS WAS WORTH RENTING.I ONLY GAVE IT 4 STARS.I WOULD NOT RENT IT AGAIN BUT DID ENJOY IT.
229639,2,Slithers through my barrel like a champ,"In my opinion, bore snakes are a must when cleaning. I don't recommend this to be the only method to cleaning and should be a supplement to the cleaning rod and patches.I typically use the bore snake after the rod and patches to make sure I really purge whatever junk is in the barrel. Then I would run a light coat of oil afterwards. That may seem excessive to some but with the possible threat to our gun rights nowdays, we must take good care of the wonderful firearms that we have!"
229641,2,Timeless and for All Ages,"This is one of those stories that one will want to revisit throughout one's own life. It's courage, survival, faith, fear, struggle, hard work, selfishness, forgiveness, and so much more. It's short reading yet the messages from the story are endless and everlasting."
229673,2,Interesting Projects,All the projects in this book were original and interesting. We especially liked the medieval slingshot device. Good book if you want something different.
229697,2,helpful illustrations for the beginner like me,"Not ony this has about 100 different knots (20 practical ones), it has some knots that you can make as an ornament or good luck charms. It has useful illustrations too. Although I just bought this book a few hours ago on a sale rack in a nearby bookstore, my first impression of this book is pretty good.This hard cover book also has:tags that divides different knot sections into:The world's favorite knots20 practical knotstraditional knotsinnovative knotsuseful mutations"
229729,2,i have 55 bratz,"when i got this toy i was so happy. it has so many clothes, heads, shoes, and more. i made 55 diffrent bratz with diffrent hair styles or even diffrent clothes and its so much fun. trust me youll play with this for a long time. gooooo bratz.(i hate to admmited but bratz copied my scene. i know its hard to believe but some of you KNOW bratz copied my scne and your just denying it. its okay, my scene copied bratz waaaaay more so my scene deserves a taste of their own medicine. go bratz.)"
229752,2,For Dog Lovers,"I bought this for a relative who loves dogs and who believes that certain dogs have come into her life because their relationship was ""meant to be."" She loved it."
229896,2,Young Catholics Bible,My 10 year old daughter loves this Bible. I bought it because she was complaining about Sunday school and I wanted to find another way for her to learn more about our catholic faith. We are reading it together and what she likes the most is that it is easy to understand. She loves all the passages and the illustrations.
229946,2,LOVE IT,This is a favorite book of mine and then I passed it on to my husband and my four teenage and up kids. So many great issues are confronted and the suspenseful story keeps you hooked. Then the next two in the series are a must read also!
229959,2,Under the Tuscan Sun,"This, together with ""Bella Tuscany"", is one of the best books I have ever read about contemporary life style in Italy. And, as an Italian born and raised less than 3 hours from Tuscany, I really think Mayes did a great job."
230038,2,The Gold Monkey is still golden,"I remember when this was on t.v. and how disappointed I was when it was taken off. It certainly was not Emmy winning, but just good solid entertainment. As a period piece placed just before WW2 it still holds up well for viewing.Of course it is a comedy/adventure series and must be viewed with tongue in cheek. The acting is well done and the production values are good. The 6 disc set contains the pilot and all of the episodes. If you want some light entertainment with a little adventure or misadventure as it may be this would be a good choice."
230080,2,Gene Tierney,"Well written and insightful. I was especially interested in Daria as my son is deaf from war time German measles. Good book, good to know her famiily carries on."
230225,2,Fabulous Worship--,"If you appreciate the worship ministry of Chris Falson or Tommy Walker, you will love this CD. Music is also by Rick Founds, and Billy Batstone. This has Chris' stlye of worship and rock mixed to take you into the presence of the Lord. Count it all PURE JOY my brethern when trials fall upon you. I delight in the Lord is a fabulous song as well. The jacket of this CD also has the chord changes for the worship leaders! How Lovely YOur dwelling place is the best version of that song I've ever heard (I have the CD that song was orignially recorded on). JOn Nau does a fabulous job comping for Tommy Walker. It's a must have--however you can get your hands on it."
230323,2,motion for my mobile,"I purchased this Disco Ball Motor to give motion to a mobile that I made with my collection of Cirque du Soleil ornaments, which were designed by Judie Bromberger, three different sized wire hoops, fishing line, and small glass grapes and teardrops. I put a small spot light on the floor (under the mobile) that is focused upward, so the ornaments, grapes and teardrops are iluminated. At night, the shadow of the mobile rotates too on the ceiling of my dining room. The mobile was nice without the battery operated rotating Disco Ball Motor, but now the movement makes it the focal point of the dining room. This project plus good music create a wonderful atmosphere for candle light dining. People give me compliments constantly."
230327,2,Very good start,"Good, very appealing first book of this trilogy. I have to agree with the people who have said that the trilogy could have been reduced to a single volume."
230355,2,Electric Keyboard,It is exactly what I ordered. I really should have ordered the 88 notes keyboard but did not know it at the time. Not Yamaha's fault.
230379,2,Great product!,"I use this every year on my flowering annuals and perennials and it is the best I have found at promoting blooms and healthy growth. I wouldn't use anything else. I've been gardening a long time, and have tried many others, this is the absolute best."
230424,2,space opera for a rainy day,"An enjoyable sequel focusing on different characters thanDeathstalker. This book focuses more on the politics ofthe Imperial Court and her Imperial Majesty Lionstone XIV.The plot is splitting into many possible directions and Iestimate at least two more sequels, possibly more. I wouldrecommend reading Deathstalker first. The 'space opera' inthis book is definitely above average."
230480,2,surprise,"I am not a fan of horror movies. Perhaps it is generational. But I watched ALL DARK PLACES in its entirety and found it dealing with problems of love, dedication, demons and addiction in a serious and successful manner.The acting was fine, as were the photography and dialogue.Surprise, surprise, horror film or not, I enjoyed and admired it."
230490,2,...One of the best five albums of the year!!!,"Simply put, Serenity Of The Devil is one of the best albums of the year. Songs - like Activate, Regret, Shallow Nation, Former Self and Floorkiller - are amazing, body-moving tracks. A must have for anyone who likes dance music, especially fans of the ebm/electro genre. If you like Apoptygma Bezerk, Covenant, VNV Nation, you will not be disappointed. An truly empressive debut album."
230545,2,LOOKS AMAZING AND WORKS WONDERFULLY WELL!!!!!,The stand has exactly the look and quality it claims and I expected. It really blends with both my iMac and my extra monitor. Height is just perfect and lets me store my backup disk or my keyboard beneath.IT WAS A GREAT BUY!!!
230546,2,"Excellent companion to MBP + 24"" Display","I bought it for my 17"" MacBook Pro to sit on next to my 24"" Cinema Display. The laptop used to take up 25% of my desk. With the stand it uses about 12% and I can slide papers/books/etc underneath it. I don't use the cable routing hole in the back because it looks better ironically.Very sturdy, does not slide around (stand or laptop), and aluminum matches Apple products very well. I highly recommend you buy one."
230559,2,Musician's Opportunity,"This is a very affordable tux. It's not the best quality that you can buy, but it's reasonable for the $150.00. After all I do not wear a tux every day. I'm a bass player and I always had to take my jacket off while playing. I had to choose between a ""bigger than my size"" one, or this one. I chose this one. I can play my bass wearing it and I look and feel good. I would recommend this for any drummer, percussionist or any instrumentalist who needs to be comfortable playing. Also waiters, dancers or any one who likes to be not restrained. I think is a good investment. I'll talk about durability in a couple of years, we'll see."
230586,2,super,great product for a good online price. what a savings over the store prices. low carb with great chocolate taste. protein with all the vitamins and minerals you need in one shake. blends well for a daily shake.
230618,2,Great Preparedness,"An absolute must for anyone who sees themselves as being involved in, or maybe even in the midst of, any sort of custody issue. The book lays it on the line as far as answering questions and direct facts are concerned. If you have any questions regarding custody this book is a must have. I would highly recommend it to anyone. I has eased my mind and helped me be better prepared in all aspects of custody."
230630,2,So far so good,"I put the dehumidifier in the seldem used bathroom in my basement. It keeps the whole basement dry and the included hose allows me to drain it straight into the shower drain so I just ""set it and forget it"".It is not silent and removing the bucket is just a little bit akward."
230655,2,This Book Has Helped Me A Great Deal,"My boyfriend started using steroids a few month ago. He had me convinced that steroid use was no big deal and that he knew what he was doing. At first I believed him, but after a few weeks he started losing his temper over small trivial things. He would become verbally abusive with me and a few times I though he might hit me, but he never did. I learned a great deal about steroids by reading The Steroid Bible. I now know that steroids can make it hard for a person to control his temper along with other side effects and how steroids can be used in the safest manner possible to minimize these side effects. I showed The Steroid Bible to my boyfriend and he changed the way he takes steroids. His temper is no longer a problem. I would prefer that he not take steroids, but he is a serious bodybuilder who has a good shot at becoming a professional and I want to support his dream of becoming a professional bodybuilder."
230663,2,My family loves this,me and my family want this movie so much we look for it every year but can never find it. We love this movie.
230681,2,I like this series,"I really like the ""The Young Riders"". My favorite charater is Lou and The Kid. Does any one know when the second season will come out."
230772,2,LOVE IT,"This mure berry fragrance is one of my favorite things, have had it off and on for five years or so. always have a had a hard time finding it, but when I finially do, I fall in love with the scent of this all over again. the best summer scent."
230785,2,Awesome,This book is fantastic. I bought it at a great price with quick shipping. Plus it is in very good condition as a hard cover book. I am So Very Pleased with My Purchase. Thank You Very Much!
230957,2,John Green.....I am still laughing,"I have enjoyed this book. I can not say that I like it better than any of John Green's other books, but I have laughed out loud at the antics of Colin, Hassan, and Lindsey."
230963,2,News Flash: Kinks Faces Recently Seen On Milk Carton!,"When the tour to support ""Sleepwalker"" hit Detroit's Cobo Hall back in 1977, the mighty Kinks were given the middle slot on a three-band bill, just above Ray Manzarek's Nite City and just below (believe it or not) Heart. Par for the course since The Kinks never seemed to get the respect they so richly deserved stateside, at least not until the arena rock trappings exhibited on ""Low Budget."" ""Sleepwalker,"" like ""Muswell Hillbillies,"" is perfect, with not a duff track to found within its grooves. ""Life On The Road,"" ""Juke Box Music,"" and the title track are all mandatory listening and validate Ray Davies' reputation as a pop music visionary and genius. Golden..."
230984,2,Men are a waste of life,"You guys who are reviewing this and saying womens wrestling is pointless is a real disgrace. Wrestling is not just a men sport ok, get it through your empty heads. You guys are giving reviews saying its only good for the ""T&A"" which is absoultely disgusting and you need to realize that. Maybe if the WWE wasnt sexist towards women and didnt hire them based on their looks, theyd have beeter female wrestlers."
230995,2,Child loves this book!,"My daughter LOVES this book...in fact, she pretty much loves all things Charlie and Lola, so this book was a great find - especially since she will be starting school in the fall. LOVE IT!"
231023,2,beautiful reading about a gifted woman,"I am proud that I own this book. He divides her biography by each personal evolution she passed through. It wouldn't be good to give it away but I will say that O'Meally places value on each era of Billie. Every time I read it, it's a joy."
231031,2,The experience you must take,"If there is one ABBA album to get (besides THE VISITORS) then this is it. Not only does it contain the hit singles which really put them on the map (ie. SOS, MamaMia and I Do, I Do), it contains some gorgeous ballads (ie. the outstanding ""I've Been Waiting for you""). And who could forget ""Tropical Loveland"". This song was used as the background music for an ""ABBA in Australia"" special in 1976.Remastered on CD and sounding even better, buy it for the bonus tracks previously only available as b-side vinyls (eg Crazy World)."
231039,2,I'm glad i bought it,"It took me til the 4th one to finally break down and by a pure moods cd but i'm glad i did. there are only 1 or 2 songs that i'm not thrilled with but sometimes i'm even in a mood to hear them. i'm more inclined to buy others from the series now. My favorite songs are ""november"" and ""shadows in silence"""
231095,2,You a oo a oo,"Deftones are one of the best rock and roll bands around in this time period.I have no real complaints about this recording, other than it could use more songs with the emotional pull of ""Cherry Waves"" and ""Xerxes""."
231107,2,dude,"my name is nick, i play tenor sax, and my high school marching band went to orlando to the Champs Sports Bowl and we played in the halftime show and mike phillips played with us and we met him and i almost got him to sign my sax but i got sick. but man mike phillips is the coolest jazz artist to come around in a while. he can play a melody that'll be stuck in your head, but he can also rip it up with some crazy freestyle."
231157,2,"6 Years, 6 Feet","This is a collection of some of Frankenstein Drag Queen's material. For those of you who don't know, a little bit of history for you. Wednesday 13 had a band called Frankenstein Drag Queens. They released 4 studio cds. When the FDQ'S broke up, he took the songs to his new band The Murderdolls. They recorded a cd and toured the world. Wednesday then took his other favorite FDQ songs and re-recorded them, as well as recording some new material. The results are on this cd. While some of the re-recordings on this cd are not noticeable,some do sound different to me and it is those that I favor the originals over. The new material however, is great. I have the Import version with 3 extra tracks and I don't regret at all the extra spending for it. I highly recomment this cd, as well as taking the time to hunt down the original FDQ cds. Some are easy to find, while some are a little harder to find. All in all, well worth the time and effort."
231181,2,An Interesting Concept Album,"Not many artist have the talent and experience enough to record an album with homogenity such as this interesting and somewhat strange concept album. It does evoke a feeling magical yearning that I myself couldn't explain.As the title suggests, the album contains songs which have something to do with water. Contrived?Mmmm perhaps but still inventive.Streisand's voice, as she was in her late 30's was pure and golden (now in her mid 60's is more dark but still powerful) and she sings with a different technique.I specially loved After the Rain and Kiss Me in the Rain. You definitely will fall in love.So So beautiful."
231212,2,Music to your ears,"Even an American can almost pull off a Weegie accent with this ;-). Nothing to say but fun, fun, fun."
231301,2,THAT'S WHY B.I.G. WAS THE BEST EVER !!!,"Puff, you did a great job !!! Mixing the old verses and new stuff, w/catchy melodies !!! As always, it seems that B.I.G is telling a story, and you can't help but get caught up in it !!! It was great that so many artists and friends, wanted to be a part of the tribute. Ultimate Rush, Living the Life, and 1970 Something are definite favorites.If Duets is indeed the Final Chapter, His legacy is indeed left intact, and B.I.G is smiling down !!!"
231352,2,I absolutely love this man!...,"He's excellent,excellent!...Wow..when I heard Mundo Feliz I thought I've gone to heaven..he is awesome. No doubt but THE BEST! Enrique Bunbury has recorded yet another magnificent album. He's soo cute too! I love him. Enrique Bunbury para siempre!"
231363,2,Don't buy first edition. This is the one.,"This book SINGLE HANDEDLY trained me and got me my dream job in ASP.NET / SQL Server. IF you want a book that cuts through *all* the BS, and tells you what you NEED to know, you found it! The author's writing style is superb; he keeps the topics interesting and fun. Study .NET with this book and you'll rise to the top and be the envy of all your colleagues - yes, it's *that* good.We have 3 developers at my place of work. We had 4 copies of Programming VB.NET 2002, and just today we got 3 copies in of the 2003 edition. We are very excited to be able jump into this version. Balena adds the much needed .NET Remoting chapter as well as a full text search (PDF) of the whole 2003 book on CD. Also, this book covers VS.NET 2003 and .NET 1.1MAKE your boss buy you this book now.If you're the boss, you know what to do!Happy .NETingJim"
231396,2,A beautifully written book that I would recommend to anyone!,"I thought that this book was very well written. Itputs beautiful pictures of each word in your mind, andit seems to flow well. It started off by bringing you intothe story early on, but unlike other books, you cannot identify the point in which you get into thebook, it just gently pulls you into the story without younoticing. At some times, the book lacks energy and excitement,but at other times, the wording and description ofthe scenes and characters almost enchants you.It is definitely a classic, and although it is not about love,a good word to describe it is romantic. I recommend this bookto anyone!!!!!!-Katie Manning, American School In Japan, 6th grade."
231431,2,This Book is sooooooo good!!!!!!,"I just love dogs and this book is probably the best dog book I have ever read. It is very informitive,has several good dog breeds in there,and has very detailed pictures. At school I am know as the dog freak because I have memorized all the breeds in this book. If you love dogs as much as I do purchase this book."
231434,2,Gotta catch this video!!!!,"I didn't buy the video, but I saw it on TV.I LOVED it!! I felt really bad for Pikachu.If you have never seen the POKeMON show before this is a great one to start on!!"
231477,2,squire,"this was a great book. i knew cleon had a crush on kel from the previous book, but i never thought it would go that far. i wish there had been more romance between the two, and that he had been there at her coronation. i think that would have made this a lot better. still, i couldn't put the book down until i had read it twice! great book, two thumbs up!"
231483,2,Extremely comic and easy to relate to!,"I absolutely loved this book, and I love books that are composed of say strictly letters, emails, etc. But, did anyone else find Celia to be extremely annoying and not friend material at all? I swear, she was so infuriating! I wish Elizabeth had told her her feelings. Anyway, I think I'll have to steal that line, ""Hey, I liked your boyfriend first, can I have him back please?"" lol Classic. :)"
231491,2,Love this curry!,"My husband and I have been asking our New York friends for years to bring us boxes of S&B Medium Hot curry when they visit because we can't find it in Richmond. So glad to know we can get it on line. We love this curry, so easy to make. I usually add carrots and onions along with the chicken, and melt the blocks of curry paste in water in the microwave so it blends better. It's also excellent in a pie, just make the receipe and put it in a baked pie crust, cover it with another pie crust and stick it in the oven for a little while."
231559,2,wierd but cool,This book started out kind of dull but it got more interesting with each chapter. We get to see Cyan Bloodbane come back to haunt the gandson of Lorac King of the elves
231606,2,Keep them coming....,great figure if you like the character....quality construction.... durable....5 stars....
231620,2,Sweetness~,"Two great games for the price of one, how could you not love it? Harmony of Dissonance has an old school Castlevania feel to it, with some modern touches to bring it up to speed. Aria of Sorrow is, in my opinion, better than Symphony of the Night in terms of gameplay, as the story is a little weak.Pick this up if you need to kill a lot of time and you own a GBA/ Nintendo DS."
231695,2,Excellent Counting Video!,This has been a great video for teaching our preschooler the concept of using numbers to count things [which she just didn't get prior to seeing this video]. Now she is learning to count objects and has a wonderful time singing the songs. I think it is a cute video and an ingenious way to get little ones interested in numbers. We are very grateful for all the Richard Scarry learning videos - they are real winners!
231725,2,"Entertaining and illuminating, enjoyable, but not Faulkner","Heddle obviously draws from his knowledge of the physics academic community (and physics itself) to write this. This is to the good; one should write about things one knows about, and this allows one to convey the ring of truth (and allows the reader to actually learn something).His point of view is also clear, but not thrust annoyingly upon the reader (at least to my ear). (Unlike other authors who write in science-related fields whom I could point out.)There is good use of humor (I laughed out loud in places as well), insight into human behavior, etc.; so it's definitely worth a read.But in honesty, I wouldn't quite consider it highbrow/fine literature. (Perhaps one more go-around with an editor might have made a big difference.)"
231762,2,"An amazing documentary on DVD about Europe's first civilization, Crete","Hosted by historian Bettany Hughes, The Minotaur's Island is an amazing documentary on DVD about Europe's first civilization, Crete. The Minoans had a thriving culture nearly five thousand years ago, more than two millennia before Homer created ""The Iliad"". Then their civilization died, leaving behind little record. Archaeologists continue to discover new wonders that bring insight into Minoan culture - magnificent palaces, hinged doors, flush toilets, painted designs of acrobatic individuals leaping over bulls, and much more. Did Minoan society meet its doom from natural disasters, foreign invaders, religious strife, or a perfect storm combination of factors? The Minotaur's Island explore the many clues to the daily life and final end of this amazing ancient civilization. Highly recommended. 98 minutes, color, full screen."
231802,2,boost your paradigm shift,"Though many of us know that our thoughts help steer our destinies, old ruts can be tough to escape. Reading Rob Brezny is like getting a joyful kick in the pants, or going to an oxygen bar. We can all use those boosts to get our minds to hum with possibility. I didn't agree with everything or love every minute. But I wholeheartedly love the support to live big, full, passionately and with unbounded creativity. Think of it like a counter weight to the TV news, lowest common denominator, and even your own habits. ""Pronoia"" is like plucking the universal guitar and strumming a few chords: Anything can happen afterward."
231914,2,being john malkovich,The Movie Being John Malkovich was fantastic. John Malkovich and the cast are so good. It was really a super film.
231973,2,great for the price.,"For $19 dollars I was pleased with these earrings although I honestly don't know much about identifying the quality of pearls. I just received them so don't know if they will hold to the test of time without breaking, and they are somewhat blemished but as other reviewers mentioned you have to look closely to see the blemishes. They are a perfect size for my ears (I have thick earlobes, they might seem big if your earlobes are tiny) and they have a pretty shine to them. Do note that these are not pink as they appear in the picture. I think it is the lighting of the camera that seems to give them the pink hue. They are actually white."
232009,2,Very good song book.,"Iz is fantastic uke player, so the songs are really great. The only odd thing about this book is that, since Iz uses guitar tuning on his uke, the book is a little hard to follow using standard uke tuning."
232038,2,Works great on iBook 1.2Ghz,Not much to say - it just works as expected on my iBook 1.2Ghz (Mac OS X 10.3) with both mine and my wife's Sony Ericsson T637 phones.
232059,2,Enjoyable debut,"Don't confuse Innosense with that ""other"" girl group the Spice Girls. These new girls on the block show that with tight harmony, great beats and some style, they can take the world by storm.Standout tracks on the album include the haunting ""Rain Rain"", the Diane Warren penned tracked ""You Didn't Have to Hurt Me"" and ""A Hundred Oceans"", the old school R&B flavored ""A Real Good Man"" and the funky rap/chant vibe of ""Ride"". The album is a mix of today's ""pop"" sound, with a twist. They can take it from the mellow ""So Together"" to the cyberspace themed ""www.fan-ta-see"" without missing a beat. I was most impressed with the harmonies and arrangements within the songs, that's where they shine. I would reccomend this to anyone who is looking for a great pop/dance album. (and check out www.innosensemusic.com for clips of all the songs)"
232060,2,One of the best!,"I have not seen this episode in years if anyone can tell me where you can buy it on a collectors edition I would appreciate! I own 4 editions of Scooby Doo, and The Chiller Diller Movie Thriller is not on any of them!"
232085,2,"if you think you like em now,after this book you'll love em","i've been to all their shows, have all thier songs, but this book completes it. this book tells how they started from a garage band to playing in sold out arenas, thier happiness and turmoils, and everything else. this book also gave my band and i inspiration because we're just another punk band trying to make it. i totally recommend this book, because its awsome its interesting, and it'll the best book ever is you're a blink fan."
232115,2,A pleasant mishmash,Aside from the Yiddish - English dictionary the book has many features explaining various aspects of Yiddish culture. It provides real insight into the cultural world and life of Yiddish speakers. An excellent browsing book.
232157,2,Can't Wait for Season 2 on DVD,This show is too funny. Kenny is rude and crude. If you like Danny Mcbrides humor you will love this show.
232232,2,mojo critter decoy,"i love this mojo critter, just had time to take it out once,called in a cyote and a fox,thanks mojo. Rick P.thanks amazon,"
232250,2,Tiny & Cute,"These are REALLY tiny, not much bigger than the head of a pin. I have 10 ear piercings (6 in one ear and 4 in the other) so these were just right to wear with all the others without being overpowering. I really love them! Got my order in under a week which was great! Highly Recommended! :-)"
232264,2,Sultry...Sexy...Sweet,"I bought this album on a whim after hearing ""Raincoat"" on the radio and falling in love with it. Sometimes it is worth buying a CD even when you do not know what the songs are going to be like just because the voice makes it worth it. With this album, however, I was NOT disappointed. Every song is fantastic and I absolutely LOVE Sweet's voice. Her songs range from classical to a sexy pop sound. The only thing that does not change is the beauty in her voice. Few people could pull such an album off- but she certainly does. ""We Are One"" is my current favorite, but I love her version of Aerosmith's ""Dream On"" also as well as ""Crush"". Buy it and enjoy it over and over and over again- I am."
232321,2,"Hey Man, I like dancing to Disco!!","Being a fan of most styles of Dance Music, especially House dj'd by Sanchez/Morillo etc I decided to explore some of its roots and pick this one up. I wasn't expecting much since I never really liked Disco.I was pleasantly suprised.This is one damn fine party album - very danceable.It exposed me to a lot of lesser known disco tracks (theres no blame it on the boogie or freakout here). Yes theres cheese here (it is disco) but theres also some rockin dance tracks here. Its had many repeat plays in my cd player.I wasn't there at the time, but this is Live at the Paradise Garage by Larry Levan, so I guess it has to be somewhat representative of the sound being played then.Overall - If like me you want an intro into the disco sound being played in clubs at the time - then this cd is well worth getting - you won't be disappointed."
232358,2,Fantastic for the Price,"This vacuum really is a fantastic value. We researched on Consumer Reports prior to purchase and were pleased to find a recommendation that fit our budget. The vacuum has much more suction power than our previous $300 Kenmore vacuum, which was a gift 5 years ago.While there are bags to contend with, this vacuum does everything that we need it to do for an active household with toddlers. We would highly recommend, for the the price and performance to date."
232377,2,Great vac for the price!,Hope this hoover last as long as my last hoover. I put about 2 hours a week on it and it lasted 12 years before the motor burned up. Kevin of North Carolina.
232385,2,Fantastic Vaccuum!,"This vaccuum is absolutely fantastic! I ordered one based on the many positive reviews and am so glad I did. Once over the carpet and EVERYTHING is clean. With my old vaccuum, I had to go over areas two and three times. Plus, the added width is wonderful. What is so amazing, that with the extra width and cleaning power of this machine, it is surprisingly light weight. I am extremely happy that I purchased it."
232391,2,Simply Brilliant!,"When I purchased this movie, I'll admit I was a little skeptical. But after viewing it, It's as if I am seeing life for the first time! It is without a doubt the greatest piece of cinematography ever created. Mister Atlas: Legend...Hero...Friend... contains some of the most blindingly brilliant acting you will ever witness. It is like looking God himself in the face and seeing him smiling back at you! If you have not yet purchased or viewed this film, you have not lived your life to its fullest extent and you have done yourself a disservice. Go buy it and watch it THIS INSTANT!"
232464,2,fantastic reading,valdene's style is just right for the hunter and outdorsman in me. i enjoyed valdene's down-to-earth approach to hunting and his expressions of the feelings of a hunte
232523,2,Wyclef Does it Again,"I was thrilled when I bought The Ecleftic, the album has so many sounds and explores a wide musical area. It has something for everyone and is all inclusive and unifying yet doesn't stray too far from classic hip-hop. My favorites are definitely the forceful ""Diallo"", ""Thug Angels""- which has a great beat, ""Hollyhood to Hollywood"", and the beautiful rendition of Pink Floyd's ""Wish You Were Here,"" though all of the songs are great! I never understood why Lauren Hill got so much more credit for her album (though it is good) when the real creativity lies in Clef, what's next?"
232542,2,"Works great, tastes awful.","I chew two of these right after work. They stop the lethargy I sometimes feel after work, making getting to the gym in the evening much easier. So, the gum's efficacy gets 5 stars. The gum's taste, however, gets about one or two stars. It does taste good initially, but it starts tasting just awful--like old coffee--after about 5 minutes. Yes, I still buy the product because it works so well. But if I could find a good-tasting alternative, I'd definitely buy it instead."
232603,2,"Good album, even better remastered",In 1981 Steel Pulse was practically bankrupcy without any money at all.They managed to get some free of charge studio time in a small recording studio in Denmark to make this album.The result was one of their best albums of all time.Now a better sounding remaster is out adding 4 new extended previously unavailable tracks to this fabulous album.Recommended.
232623,2,Must have!!!,"At first i was sceptical about this shirt, but when i tried it works like it is supposed to do. As a beginner snowboarder i am taking falls very often and this shirt is performing really well! It absorbs much of the damage and i do not feel almost anything. It offers protection for the ribs and the whole arm (from shoulder until just before where the wrist is). It is very confortable and after a while you are forgeting that you are wearing it. The only downside is that it has a particular smell that it does not seem to go away. I have washed it a couple of times and there has been some minor improvement :) This is a must buy for beginners and not only."
232624,2,Fabuloso,David Lindley crosses many musical genres. Pure entertainment fun! To describe the music is like trying to push a triangular peg into a square hole. All I can say is that he really loves his job!
232638,2,classic,"This is a great album. I don't think they've quite found the power of Puppets yet, James is still waiting for his voice to break at this point. Don't get me wrong i love this album!!!!"
232639,2,Metallica's All-Time Best,"I love this album! From its all out thrash moments to its softer, more progressive moments, it is a metallic classic. Here's a rundown on the tracks.Fight Fire With Fire: A cool fast song with strange classical guitar intro.Ride The Lightning: Another metal classic. I love the way Jame's voice sounds all schreechy.For Whom the Bell Tolls: Yet another unbeatable song.Fade To Black: The best Metallica song ever. What can I say?Trapped Under Ice: A fast, uncomprimising metal track.Escape: A very good, no frills songCreeping Death: A very good song. Very fast and catchy.Call Of Ktulu: A great instrumental.All in all, this is the best Metallica album ever. Anyone who doesn't own it is not a true headbanger."
232747,2,"Unexpected revelation, two beautiful numbers included","This album is an unexpected revelation. Comparising can be made with Asia and a touch of Marillion. The title song is of a high standard, only the producer didn't get the best out of the CD. It is to rough, it should sound a little bit more in line with the technics the group members use to play there instruments. I also bought ""Pride"", compared to Songs from the Lions Cage, a failure."
232771,2,Best Metallia album out there,"From the suspensful acoustic opening of Battery to the explosive ending of Damage Inc., this has to be their best piece of work. Kirk Hammets and James Hetfields fast paced guitar riffs and Lars Ulrichs drum bashing in the title track and Damage Inc. are absolutely two of the best metal songs on the market. Im not much into Instrumental songs but ive listened to Orion more times than i can count. And the slow and eerie riffs of The Thing That Should not be are abosolutley mesmorizing. the only other 'tallica album that comes close is ""Ride The Lightning"".So If you are a fan of metallica or any metal band, this is diffently a must have."
232787,2,Good Book,"A very interesting insight into the troubles from right back to the early 1900's. Slightly of the republican persuasion but only slightly. includes references and comments from British army officials, sínn feín officials and members of the provisional IRA. If you want to understand the knife-edge stumble along the precipice to peace, you must read this book (Toby Harnden.)"
232789,2,A good compilation of the Everlys in the 80's,"This CD contains (only) 11 songs from two albums made in 1984 and 1986. The title track is ""On the wings of a nightingale"", a wonderful, wonderful song written by Paul McCartney (and which was a hit for the Everlys) which is worth buying the whole album. There are two Dylan covers, ""Abandoned Love"" and ""Lay Lady Lay"", and also a Dire Straits cover, ""Why Worry"", which suits well to the brothers' voices. Most of the songs are quite enjoyable. One very strange thing : this album is in mono."
232797,2,This book is Andy through and through.,"To begin with, Andy is the best RA that an incoming freshman could hope for. Down-to-earth and compassionate, he also has a peculiar knack for being right every single time. Naturally, with so much respect for him, I began his book with a bit of an established bias, yet with or without one, this book is an excellent read.Andy takes you and shows you what being a college kid is like. I was able to sympathesize with and recognize a portion of myself in every single character in this book. It's an accurate portrayal of how a dorming community should be, and a good glimpse of what to expect in college.I don't know how anyone could finish this book and not feel their spirits soaring. This book is a wonderfully real tribute to his floor and it emanates Andy's philosophy in life, one which he lives by and which I find so inspirationally admirable.Way to go dude, thanks for keeping me sane. :)"

232881,2,I give a copy to everyone I care about . . .,"Boy's Life is the type of book that, at any time or any place, can pull a person out of their life and make them young. The front cover says ""Recapture the Magic"" and I can't think of a more appropriate catch-line. At 21, closer to birth than death, hopefully, and having just begun to encounter the way real life pounds away and yanks away our simple loves, I think that we all need books like ""Boy's Life"" to help us keep that love simple. I give a copy to friends on any fitting occasion. I'd give one to you if i knew you . . ."
232943,2,"this is the real ali ""dubfire"" mix","The Toronto mix is OK, but this is the real deep dish mix.This afterhours is mixed by Ali ""dubfire"". It starts out dubby, moves through some vocal & disco house tracks and starts blowing up once ""activator"" kicks in.if you're a fan of yoshiesque, I highly recommend these afterhours mixes"
232957,2,Great Anthology,"The Four Tops are legends and listening to this clearly shows it. The songs drive hard: pleading, begging, concession--all done well. Even songs that were covers (Walk Away Renee) sound very good. ""Walk Away Renee"" in particular makes the Left Banke version sound like a weak whine. ""Bernadette"" epitomizes the passionate and emotionally exhausting narrative Levi Stubbs presents. Songs like ""I'm in a Different World"" while not major hits still sound pretty good!"
233005,2,"I hope they return.... The ""Modern Day Robin Hood's""","Absolutely loved all the episodes... Each one of the group has their own speciality. Mostly learned using those gifts as criminals... but now they are like Modern Day ""Robin Hood's""... They help those who can not help themselves in the way that is needed. I love all the characters and have watched all Seasons... and will miss them terribly if they do not continue the series..."
233066,2,good stuff,"I like this product. I had to buy like $2 dental floss though to get free shipping, and save like $8 -- and then they came separately packaged and on separate deliveries! Wish they'd just raise the price $2."
233067,2,A huge hit at our house!,"My family (11 year old son included) loves these cereals. They are not quite as ""heavy"" as your typical granola, not too sweet, and the flavors are wonderful. The Amazon price is significantly less that if you purchase at your local supermarket and, although they are still pricier than typical breakfast cereal, I feel better about feeding them to my family."
233110,2,Fast shipping!!,The book is fascinating and the shipping was incredibly fast. Received during the first week of class!!
233111,2,So glad I found this!,"I've had this on cassette for years, but about a month ago, my old cassette player ATE my cassette! So I went on a search for the album on CD format--found a new one for a LOT of money. So what a thrill to find it ""fulfilled by Amazon"" at a great price for a used CD. I've never bought a used CD on line before, but I trust Amazon, so I added it to my most recent order. I am THRILLED to have these songs back again. I don't always like Linda Ronstadt, but the songs on this album, especially w/ Aaron Neville, are awesome. The actual CD case was slightly scratched, but well worth it to save over $20! And the CD itself looks & plays like NEW! Thanks Amazon"
233232,2,Don't Need to Be a Plant Expert!,"Although I very much enjoy books that simply educate me about certain plants, I am not able to remember all I need to know in a regular, timely fashion. This book, with its month to month format, overcomes that by reminding me to weed-n-feed my lawn, prune my summer flowering shrubs, plant bare root roses, and spray my fruit trees -- all in one chapter entitled, ""March""! Also, great reading and pictures! Along with my Southern Living Garden Problem Solver book, I don't need any other gardening books!"
233271,2,Great read.,This is an excellent book. It was recommended to me by a friend and worth every penny. Extremely motivating. I have two other books in the series that I enjoy just as much.
233272,2,A Wonderful book to help you walk closer with God,"I got the audiobook from the library, and after I returned it I missed it so much that I went out and bought the book. I carry it in my purse so that I have it if I need it. It is a wonderful book to read in any time, weather you are already prayerful and feeling close to God, or when you feel like you are falling away from God and you don't know how to find him. I recomend this book to any woman!"
233276,2,"At 23 cents per movie, you're getting your money's worth.","Honestly, the title and packaging are misleading; this is a pile of crap, but it's four-star crap. Seriously, while the general movie viewer will be disappointed in this collection, anyone with an interest in typical movies of the period will be delighted to get so much for so little."
233303,2,"Dude, you're getting a Del!","l once listened to ''Mistadaobolina'' on repeat for almost an hour and it just got better and better. The rest of the album is so-so, but ''Mistadabolina'' is Del's ''Stairway To Heaven''."
233446,2,Smaller than I expected,"Although the dimensions say 11.9 x 7.8 x 8.1 inches, the dimensions of the actual plastic tank (not including the cover) are 11 x 6.5 x 6 inches. This is equal to 1.85 gallons. I was expecting a tank that could hold around 3 gallons because I foolishly used the dimensions listed here. I noticed that my tank could hold less than 2 gallons when I was doing a water change and noticed I had only siphoned out 1 gallon of water and the water level was under the halfway point in the tank. Other than that this is a pretty good tank if used temporarily for a sick fish, like I am doing."
233479,2,A great insight into Raistlin Majere's past,"A wonderful story that will satisfy anyone looking to know the background of ""The Sly One"".Without ruining the story, or spoiling the plot, this book details Raistlin's youth and Test at the Tower of the Magi. This book reveals as much of Raistlin's sensitive side, as it does his abrasive side.I would recommend reading the Dragonlance Chronicles Trilogy (Dragons of [insert season] [insert adjective]) and the entire ""Twins"" trilogy before reading this book, because there are some slight contradictions that are cleared up in this novel."
233567,2,Nice rack!,"Sorry, couldn't help myself. Great for hallway shoe rack! Getting another for the closet."
233663,2,Life in the 82nd Airborne in WWII.,"One hears alot about the 101 Airborne Screaming Eagles, especially after Ambrose's books on the subject. I liked this book, and got a better look at what life was like in the 82nd. You get sad when the author talks about the bodies the author comes across (Huertegen Forest) when the author comes across this battlefield. So many died for our country, and those that endured this agony didn't have it much better.This is a nice memoir of the author's role in WWII. I got a better glimpse of what life was like in the 82nd. The author portrays how it was in both combat and rear areas. He talkes of his loss of friends and comrades in battle. He also talks about his early poverty and why he joined the army. An interesting story from a patriot."
233680,2,beautiful,"i am one of those people that keeps their jewelry on always- rings, wrist cuff, necklace, earrings. .. . and watch. so i knew i wanted a 'blue' by fossil because they are waterproof to 100 meters. i actually bought this from the fossil site for $115, with the 10 year warranty. however, that one somehow got fogged up on the inside, so i had to have it replaced. the new one's mop was not quite so beautifully colored, but after wearing this watch almost every single day for over a year i still get random compliments. (i have lost 3 crystals now, though it isn't noticed to anyone unless i point it out.) today i met another woman with the same watch (except her face is white) and we both gushed at how much we loved it. .. ."
233694,2,An authoritarian on Cults and other religions.,"If you are truly a seeker of the truth, this is a book that must be in your library. Have you ever wanted to know why the Seventh Day Adevtise Church is the way it is? Or have you wanted to always know how Islam, Mormons or Jehovah Witnesses got their start? Everything in Walter Martin's book is based upon hard facts found in magazines, court cases and documented sources. This book will open your eyes and make you realize the fabrications that many cults and religions have painstaikingly gone through to create the illusion of what is the truth. Walter Martin's Kingdom of the Cults opens these falsehoods to the light of day and it gives Christians the tools to have intelligent and rational discussions with a person who believes one of these ruses. It is a tantamount book, resourceful, direct and above all it is the truth."
233908,2,Great Kit - Just needs more products,"This kit was great! The cookbook was very helpful and had great sushi ideas. The items were high quality, I just wish there were more of them. I would recommend it for all who love sushi."
233927,2,Best Game Ever-Saved My Mind,"I work a lot and never really had time for anything, I went to sleep and would dream of work then I would wake up and work some more.Mass Effect is one of the best games ive ever played being a fan of Fable, Gears of War series, the Halo series ect.And its super cheap so its a must buy and i chipped in the extra cash to over night it,"
233969,2,So its a silly one... get over it!!!,"Yeah ok so this is not the best Phish studio realease but if you open your ears a little Lawn Boy is a fun little ditty to have around. Phish has proven to be quite versatile through the years and that makes them a choice rock act. Lawn Boy is full of that vesatility that only Phish can convey. A must have!!!Highlights include Split Open And Melt(a classic in live format), Bouncing Around The Room(also a live classic), the siily but fun My Sweet One, Run Like An Antelope, the peculiar and quirky Bathtub Gin and The Squirming Coil.Not a cd for first time Phishers but a cd not to be missed. ENJOY!!!!!"
234000,2,Entertaining and Absorbing,"I read ""Casey's Revenge"" during a a recent trip to Jacksonville, and it completely distracted me from the rather boring ride. I found the characters (especially Casey) to be believable and sympathetic (the good guys, that is!). The initial scenes when Casey is stranded are quite creepy, and the ending is chilling! I especially liked Casey's resourcefulness and generally tough nature. The Savannah setting is well developed and adds a nice regional touch. Overall, I would recommend it to anyone wanting a captivating suspense novel with some local color. Take it on YOUR next trip!"
234026,2,Buy This Record!,"You've found it! Buy this record! Linda Ronstadt and the Ray Santos orchestra perform Latin swing music! The arrangements are crystal clear, snappy and crisp. Her voice, her Spanish phrasing, is flawless. The song selection, Frenesi, Perfidia, is inspired; not a mediocre number in the bunch! Do you like to dance? You can't sit still for this music. This is not the canciones mariachi music (fine in its own right, I'm sure). For some reason, people don't know about this record. I had them play it in a CD store recently - the employees didn't want me to buy it and take it away! You'll thank me for this one!"
234058,2,stainless grill bars,Don't know about the flavorizor but they do the trick keeping excess drippings off the bottom of the grill and it diverts the flames evenly.
234066,2,Why buy anything else?,"I am running those in my V8 5.0L (302) Ford and my V6 3.0L DOHC Ford. There is no question that iridum tip and platinum ground disc will last longer and maintain the same gap.Why would anybody buy anything else, especially when is so labor intesive to replace those in the first place?"
234095,2,Power of One continues,"The prospect of reading 900 plus pages was a daunting task but one which became progressively easier as I became engrossed in the book. Courtenays strength lies in his vivid use of words. Powerful always comes to mind when I think of him as an author.As with The Power of One it does not pay to consider the likelihood of the plot too deeply. We all need a hero "" which is what fiction is all about. Like previous comments, two things grated: namely rehashing the Power of One plot for new readers and the lack of continuity at times where the flow did not seem to be there. Both detracted from the book.That said, it was a very good read and one I wouldnt have wanted to miss."
234126,2,magellan maesto 3100,"it is the best purchase my husband and i have made, sets us on a straight course everytime."
234169,2,Fantastic Workout!,"Jillian is awesome! This workout is incredible. I bought it based on all of the great reviews here on Amazon, and the video did not disappoint. Jillian keeps things interesting and fun while keeping me motivated. I highly recommend this workout!"
234172,2,Healing Angel,"You will not be disappointed with this CD. Roma Downey, with her her lovely voice of the Irish,and paired up with Phil Coulter on the piano, make this an outstanding CD. Listening to Roma Downey, will bring you back to the basic values of life, that we all have forgotten, and wish we could, all return to."
234174,2,lynne s music,"Very inspirational ,easy to listen to and beleivable . Roma has a wonderful voice .Listen to mine often ,especially when I feel the world is against me, I would certainly recomend this cd ,heavenly music."
234179,2,Original and Moving Rock,"Faktion is an extremely talented band able to grip you with some very moving songs and also rock with the best of them. Lyrically their songs will give you something to think about, which is always refreshing in this world of cookie-cutter music. The harder songs are great on bad-mood days as well. But their live performances bring it all together and help you see why they are where they are. Simply put, Faktion rocks the house!!"

234306,2,Why haven't I heard of this guy before?,"Amazing stuff... proof that being a great musician doesn't necessarily make one a ""star"". Obviously some people aren't going to like this album, or will say it's esoteric or an acquired taste. But then again, keep in mind that people actually DO buy Spice Girls albums."
234386,2,German Teacher Aide de Camp.,"I like all these paradigm verb displays. This is great for using, just for backup, or for quelling an occasional student objection. Of course, if you are wrong, it serves as a negative reinforcement, but that is good for you. Essential for your German references."
234387,2,So good!,"I picked this CD up for the song ""Home With A View"" but found the full CD was worth every cent! Great music and fun music. Other great songs on the album are ""Exit 39"", ""Defying Gravity"" and ""Give It All Away""."
234425,2,happy,i have used this perfume for several years and have not come accorss another with the same quality that matches me
234489,2,Indispensable,"This book will answer more questions than you knew you had, and all the ones you know you have. An excellent resource."
234497,2,One Fat Summer,This book is mainly and action book with lots of excitement. A young boy named Sean who is over weight and needs some help. He started a new job working for an old man for poor pay. A guy named Willie Rumson always picks on him and embarrasses him in front of other people. As Sean works at this guys house mowing lawns he gets thinner and thinner. One day right after Willie gets out of jail he comes looking after Sean with a gun. Read this book to find out what happens next! This book is one of the best books i have ever read and i hope you will think so to I would recommend this book to all ages interested in hard work.
234540,2,Glorius Book!,This is an amazing account of supernatural happenings during a true revival of God.A must read for God seekers.
234595,2,Unreal - seriously one of the fing best,The plain black cover gives no hint to how purely cool and hard this album really is. This fuggin album is very perfection in every way. Do not hesitate to buy one for each disk player you own.The drumming is so damn sweet and I'm completely blown away everytime I turn this on. Guitar work is completely awe inspiring. The sound of Nola is perfection in my feeble little mind.I'm going to revise my other ratings to remove a star to pay homage to this album.
234677,2,tuffoil,"i used this product in 1988. i had a chevy sprint. i purchased the quart sz of this product. they recomended 2x the regular amount on the initial application. b4 i put this in to my engine....i took it to my job. ( i delivered hospital kodachrome films) we had a nice chemist there. i asked him to take a look ast it and tell me what he could. he put a few drops and put in another chemical. ( i asked him what it was and he said ""an agent which makes ""like particals"" stick together) he mixed it up and i remember him showing me the teflon particals. too small to be seen but with the concoction they grouped together. anyways i put in 16 oz. no difference AT ALL...for quite awhile. BUT...i began to suddenly see a substantial difference around 1,000 miles....i began to notice that it was very much faster at high rpm shifting. also...the car started INSTANTLY. always. i recomend this product to people with some patience."
234799,2,Thick with facinating information and personal accounts,"Facinating account of the life of the Geisha. If you read Arthur Golden's Memoir of a Geisha and loved it, this book is a must. It gives the reader great background about information only touched on in Golden's book. Together, they are a great compliment to the full understanding of the Geisha. I enjoyed both the historical account as well as Downer's experience in the Geisha quarters. This book somewhat dispells the notion that Geisha are merely Japan's version of a high class ""call girl."" The Geisha are much more than that even though there is money in exchange for their companionship or entertainment. As a fast reader, this book did take me a long time to finish. I attribute this to the fact that the book combines history and story so the reader needs to focus on the information in order to fully understand concepts and move forward. I describe it as wading through chocolate pudding, entirely enjoyable just slow."
234804,2,It is a full circle.,"Once I read this book, all others were compared to it. I feel like a story should come in full circle. This one did. It's rare you find a book that you feel like you've accomplished something when you're finished. You've learned, you've smiled, cried...everything!! Classic DS"
234821,2,a must have for allergy sufferers,"This product works better than all of the prescription nasal sprays the doctor gave me. It's a little awkward to use the first time or 2, but so nice!!! If you have any allergies, or post nasal drip, you should definately try it!"
234837,2,"He has truly entered the ""world music"" genre!","If all you know of this Irish-Canadian, reggae-inspired rapper is ""Informer,"" then you need to check out this release. Snow's as melodic and inventive as Funki Porcini or Transglobal Underground. And, he's as political and multi-ethnic as the rants of the Beastie Boys, Ozomatli and Asian Dub Foundation! Hard to believe, I know, but it's true."
234865,2,A performance for the ages,"Shamefully, I knew nothing of Edith Piaf's spectacular life before seeing this film. It is a fascinating tale of triumph and tragedy, of incredible talent and unavoidable madness. Marion Cotillard's performance is one of the great characterizations of all time. Forget the makeup (ok, it was great -- let's move on), she captured Edith's innocence, her longing, her triumph and her descent in an incredibly moving way.My wife is not a fan of subtitled movies, finding them a distraction. She voiced no such opposition to this gem. The director's use of flashback and forward was rather whimsical and that was a minor distraction, but in the end it works to great effect, adding to the rollercoaster feel of Edith's actual life.Highly recommended."
234933,2,Liftgate support 99 Jeep Cherokee Sport,Easy installation. excellent replacement for 99 Jeep Cherokee Sport. Extremely fast shipping and great packaging. Easy to read instructions for different mounting options right on packaging.
234956,2,Emphasizes colors as well,"This is a cute one. There is emphasis in picking pink hat for her and orange hat for him. Blue boots for her and red boots for him. They use the word ""slicker"". I just change it to rain coat. Good buy for two year old."
234982,2,Wish I Had [$$$],"This is such a beautiful book, one of my daughter's favorites. I don't know what happened to our copy, but I thought I'd buy one for my granddaughter. Truly memorable, I probably haven't seen the book for 25 years and I still remember the title and the pictures. I'll have to pray for a reprint."
235096,2,Good product,"I bought this for myself and two of my employees since we would often be startled by people walking up behind us, especially if we were in the office later at night. I bought this mirror since it had a clip and an adjustable arm. The actual mirror itself was bigger than I would have liked. The product works very well, though, and we haven't been startled by anyone walking up behind us all week!"
235102,2,Reformation Thinking at its Best,"Michael and Alan have masterfully addressed an issue that every Christian leader, and especially every pastor, needs to come to grips with. Their message is at the heart of an important paradigm shift that must take place in the western church if we are to experience a new reformation (and one is desperately needed). While you might not agree with everything they propose, as I didn't either, and some theological issues are lacking, it is reformation thinking at its best. A must read for anyone caring about the Great Commission at home and abroad."
235173,2,Excellent!,"I just purchased this cart and so far I love it!! It went together in minutes and is sturdy. I saw this item in the store initially and was a bit concerned about the quality at first...so as usual I came home and jumped on the website to see how you all rated it! Since everyone had such great comments, I went back and purchased it. I honestly would have expected to spend much more money for this product!! I'm now considering the bakers rack since I have the perfect spot for it and not much counter space."
235244,2,Great Boots,The boots are wonderful and are of great quality. If someone has thicker calves then i wouldnt suggest the taller ones because they are narrow to fit snug against the leg.
235252,2,Bangin',Yeah son! How ya livin. Whipin out fliff like a sultan. Browder is off the chains and Claudia in the hizzy.
235346,2,eye opener,is a good book to get the understanding of what Jesus when through to save the world is a eye opener
235349,2,STARRY NIGHT,STARRY NIGHT is amazingly magical. It resonated to the artist in all of us who have struggled with art all of our lives and have not been recognized in our lifetimes. It gives hope. Abbott Alexander's fanciful portrayal of Vincent is wonderful -- you can't keep your eyes off of him. He is intensely charismatic. I bought many copies to send to family back home -- as this is a must see for all families to watch together -- and there are not many films out there like that.
235388,2,Awesome price,I paid 199 here in Amazon having free delivery.I love the bike and is a pretty good deal with a front break disk.If you have any questions you can reach me at jcmuro@hotmail.com
235479,2,WoW!,I just finished reading Remember Me and I wished there was more. This book was one of the best I have ever read! It is about a teenager who dies and tries to find out and uncover to the real world what happened the night of her death. I would strongly encourage all teenagers and young adults to read this book. I gurantee you'll enjoy it!
235583,2,MAGIC CIRCLE is MAGIC!!!,"I love this CD! The Mamas and the Papas were such talented individual artists and this CD shows just how much work was put into their careers. Although this CD misses a lot of the greatest by the Big Three and the Mugwumps that is only available on the Big Three cd and Mugwumps only vinyl album, it does contain unreleased tracks that you can't even get on a record! I recommend this to any M&P fan or anyone who likes folk music. It is GREAT!"
235656,2,A Winner!,"The video is a winner! Lots of drills that look useful. Some are a little hard to follow but with a little instant replay with the remote and it makes sense. Kids 10-14 should get the most out of this. No real negative points except maybe some of the techniques the players do could be polished a bit. But hey, they aren't the Lakers so take it for what it's worth."
235677,2,The funniest and most creative historical romance author in print!,Read all 13 of her books. Go to your local used book store or buy here. I love seeing that a few are on Kindle now. I have read over 3000+ book and the only ones I personally own are hers. They are so unbelievably funny and creative and nothing about them is average. You will not be able to put any of the 13 down once you start. My personal favorites are Midnight and Magnolias & Moonlight and Magic. But really I have reread every one of them. If you get a chance go to her bio here and it will give you an idea of how creative and special she is.
235686,2,HEALING A BROKEN HOME,"When I divorced my husband, I was looking for ways to heal my family and to provide additional support for the challenges children of divorce face. This is a wonderful book and has ideas for every type of family. The ideas cover every day activities as well as holidays, and includes great ideas for extraordinary days to be recognized as children grow up and face their own trials. The ""how to"" do your own traditions is effective and powerful. I have been divorced two years now and feel happy and confident that my family will be okay. The rituals and traditions we are building have healed and strengthened our bonds as a family. By the way, during the divorce I went to a child psychologist for advice on my children's welfare. All of her suggestions sounded so familiar, I asked if she had read this book. She had and uses it as a key reference for counselling families."
235842,2,I love books with different stories and different authors,I thought all of them did a great job with there characters. I was afraid I'd be bored going from one author to the next but each story was pretty good.
235864,2,yep,This was for me. I'm hoping my husband will get inspireed and build something for our kitty. It is full of great pictures and the spoiled cats who enjoy the items!
235974,2,Good reception,"For only $15, you have a radio and headphone with good reception. My only problem is the cord that gets caught on everything until it breaks which is very annoying, so I only gave it 4 stars instead of 5 stars. Takes a AA battery which lasts for several hours."
235982,2,Hard to find these any more,"There used to be hundreds of little walkman-type AM/FM radios, but that was before the mp3 revolution. I still like, sometimes, to listen to the actual radio, and I bought this exact model about 5 years ago at a store -- still works on FM. It stopped working on AM; again an anachronism, I sometimes listen to an all-news radio station, so I decided to order another, and it works. The old-fashioned headphones are quaint, not to mention the old-fashioned, analog tuning dial. (I'm old enough to remember the first ""transistor radios"" that actually required no tubes!)"
235993,2,Great as replacement insoles,"They are very confortable, and they come with marks to help you cut them the size you need. After a day of use your feet will be very grateful.I bought them as replacement insoles for a pair of shoes I liked but I couldn't use because the former were destroyed. Well... this feel way better than the originals, and now I love my old shoes even more."
236017,2,Teacher's Opinion,"The children love this game and it certainly teaches many concepts all at once. The small pieces are easy to lose, but they like this game so much I keep buying a new copy to replace the pieces."
236099,2,Reader's Imagination,"At every turn in this book, Blake let the reader's imagination take over. Instead of lengthy descriptions he let dialog, actions, and situations plant the pictures in my head. I felt incredibly sad at times, mad at times, amazed and informed at times. I don't know if this was intended but that's how it read. I really enjoyed it and though I was a little miffed in the beginning that Dances With Wolves wasn't the main 'goin concern', I quickly got over that. This book delt with the tribes, their different views with white relations, and their struggle for survival.Feeling Kicking Birds gut-wrenching realization that his way of life was forever lost was sobering. There could be no happy ending to this story and the lack of embellishment to the popular character's deaths, I think, coincided with the white mans attitude toward the Indians. (They didn't give it a second thought.)"
236120,2,Heucheras,I was very pleased with this book as it arrived with a new book cover which made it look brand new. Very nice indeed.
236141,2,Very Good Collection of Shorts,"I purchased this book as a big Anita Blake fan after finishing I am now also a fan of Wilks and Davidson, I am not saying that Hamilton's submission was a bad one but as other reviewers stated it is only a few chapters of her new novel coming out, York's story was indeed good but not nearly as intriguing or well written as Wilks and Davidson's.Wilks - Original Human actually made me run out a buy a couple of her novels very well written with a number of wrong guesses leading to the end.I also enjoyed Davidson's Dead Girls Don't Dance I found it had a nice blend or witty humor and intrigue.As I've said the other two submissions were good I just did not enjoy them as much as the two mentioned above and I really would have rather waited for LKM's novel to get released rather than reading part of it now.I found this collection well worth my time and money"
236151,2,Great little MP3 Player for those who don't want/need iPod,"Nothing for me to add that other reviewers haven't said already except to comment on the little joystick and the armband. On the joystick, it's great and makes navigation a snap without even having to look at the player. You might not like the joystick if: (a) you have very large fingers, (b) you are somewhat uncoordinated, or (c) you are not so good with technology. On the armband, it's fine unless you have very big arms."
236205,2,Great toning workout!!,"This workout is a good, short toning workout. My absolutely favorite part is the 10 minute ab routine that comes on the DVD version. I like it because none of the ab work is done while lying on your back. I have done crunches for years and I think I am immune to them. This ab routine really makes you feel it the next day. The DVD also comes with the Ultrafit nutrition plan and meal guide. They are very informative."
236246,2,FANTASTIC!,"Road Tools 5874-POCW Podium CoolPad (White)Such a simple idea and such a good product. Its a well made sturdy product that does everything the description says. My lap top keeps cool now and the beauty of that is I can work from bed -a real bonus I would think, for the disabled. The swivel platform makes it easy to show others what I am working on. The weight is negligible so I can travel abroad with the podium and my lap top in my hand luggage. I cannot recommend this Podium CoolPad highly enough. Do yourself a favour - BUY ONE!"
236264,2,Bosch PS20-2A 12-Volt Max Lithium-Ion Pocket Driver with 2 Batteries,The best drill I bought so far for my needs. Quite powerful and very handy.
236310,2,Recommend,I am very satisfied with this product. I also ordered the balloon wine glasses and I am happy with them as well. They are nice for the price and well represented in the description and picture.
236320,2,The River of Doubt,"Five years after he left office in the late winter of 1914, former president Theodore Roosevelt set off on an exposition to map out an uncharted river that snaked its way through the Amazon jungle. The strenuous journey lasted four months, nearly cost him his life - and probably led to his early death in January of 1919. If you want to understand what an incredible human being TR was, you need to read this book. I cannot recommend it enough.Here is a link to ACTUALLY hear the ACTUAL voice of the ACTUAL Theodore Roosevelt during the long ago campaign of 1912. They sure don't make Republicans like that anymore. Come to think about it, they don't make Democrats like that anymore either:[...]We sure could use him now.Tom DeganGoshen, NY"
236385,2,very cool knife,"great fit and finish. This knife is aggressive looking but is actually designed for utility. Not to say that you couldn't use it for self defense in a pinch but the blade design is to assist with catching netting/rope against the blade. The handle is smooth steel, very solid feeling but again wouldn't make a great handle for self defense. The overall knife is awesome and feels great in the hand, as soon as you open it you'll know what I'm talking about.If you would like to know something specific about this item just ask and I'll try to respond within a day or so."
236471,2,Hey Britney...I can see platinum gold in YOUR future...!,"Britney Spears is probably the best thing to hit the pop industry since the Spice Girls--minus Geri Haliwell, of course! I bought her enhanced CD album before I knew she'd even put out a CD single! And when I listened to THAT...I didn't find anything wrong with it at all--so what's the freakin' problem here?!? Any doubt that I had in my mind--not that there were many to begin with--completely vanished. BRITNEY--I GOT YO' BACK! YOU GO GIRL!!!"
236593,2,A very good video Biography of Joni,"At the time of writing this, I am just cutting the surface of Joni's music. This Biography has deepened my understanding of Joni. Interesting to note how she adapts to a new period and always re-invents herself. She has never gone after pop music but stayed personal in her approach. I especially enjoyed her speaking of her guitar playing and she referred to her strange guitar tunings as a ""Chords or Inquiry"". There is much to absorb here, and I've found myself watching it about 3 times up to now. It is a good launching point if you are preparing to experience Joni's music and there are many performance bits from various periods."
236600,2,Excellent resource,"The book is a wonderful resource for the person suffering from BPD as well as family members, etc. I now understand ALL aspects of the illness and what treatments are available. I am looking forward to the ""New Hope"" that this book has given me!What I do not understand is the write up on the back page...IT IS VERY MISLEADING.It states,""Now you can overcome the symptoms of borderline personality disorder (BPD) and develop a more positive outlook on life, starting today. Inside is a compassionate and complete look at the most up-to-date information on managing the symptoms of BPD as well as coping strategies for you, your friends, and your loved ones. This thoughtful book will teach you how to manage your moods, develop lasting and meaningful relationships, and create a fulfilling, happier state of mind.""Where is this info?"
236602,2,Good Collection of Music,This is a really good collection of unusual music.This makes great background music while I'm working or entertaining guests.I recommend this.
236606,2,Great Book!!...,"I really like this book, it gives you a complete idea on how to start your gift basket shop. A really good book..."
236609,2,a chior of ill children,"I had actually read this title before n found its contents so interesting and morbidly genius that it was worth reading again. Not for the faint of heart. After all, it won the stoker horror award with its genius.God bless"
236624,2,"A Good Research Book, But A Little Dry For Me","First, why did I read this book? Do I have an Italian Greyhound (aka IG or Iggys)? No. I am considering the breed in the future. I'm also writing a novel where one of the characters has an Iggy and does dog shows on the side.This book is a very useful book on the subject of Italian Greyhounds. Objectively, I cannot find a problem with this book. Subjectively (or in my opinion which may not be yours), it did not sell me on the breed as other breed books I've read on other breeds (and the problem here may not be that the author, Dino Mazzanti, failed, but that the breed may not be right for me). Also, I found it to be the one most resembling a text book; the others were somewhat more fun to read.Still, if you own or consider owning an Iggy, this is a very good book for you to have in your library. It has helped me know the breed a little better, which was my reason for reading it.Jeff Reynolds"
236647,2,"A fresh way to view what happens when we ""die"".",I already had the opinion that what we know as life doesn't end when our bodies die. This is a new look at what happens when we die. It is consistent with the thought that we all are on a path to perfection - each on his/her own path. We keep coming back til we get it right.
236838,2,Accurate History-riveting,"This movie tells it like it was without any shading by the LDS Church.The R rating made it hard for LDS to see it however.(for the violence).Having read several accurate texts about this 9-11 massacre in 1857,it is true to the tee,except for the individual romance which helps make the story more palatable.The survivors pictured at the end special section , helps one fully realize that this was a real life event.I only wish the LDS.leadership would acknowledge that there were more implicated than John D.Lee the only one executed for his part.Orders definitely did come from higher up."
236849,2,It's pretty good,"Garderobe Academy is about to have exams. Arika is worried about the written exam, but the wilderness survival exam is also trouble. Arika and Erstin are partnered up for the wilderness survival exam. Erstin gets injured during the test and Arika has to take care of her. The Aswald cyborgs also get in the way of the training. Arika ends up being hurt and Major Sergay save her. There is also an episode where Nina loses the watch that her father gave her. Arika and Nina end up in a big chase to recover it.Things are starting to get more intense. The characters and story are developing better as the series continues. I hope that this series end sup being amazing, but it still doesn't hold a candle to the original."
236858,2,Amazingly comprehensive,This book will occupy a prime spot on my bookshelf. I've had to use a bunch of different books to find this kind of information before. It's nice to see such a wide range of topics from discrete math covered so thoroughly.
236938,2,Most are excellent,"Haydn's early sonatas are short. Some are only 2 pages. No fingering is included. Until near the end technically they are easy. Only single notes. It is fairly easy to pick out the melodys and they are very nice. This is much more easy than Mozarts sonatas. These are similiar to Clementi, but much less dificult. They are fun. No peddling indications. Since the piano in this period did not have the range of the modern piano, he did not write these very high, making it somwhat less hard. Low range is good however."
236976,2,This Book was insprational,She's come undone was a well written account of what life is like for overweight girls. I think that it helped me understand where they're coming from from. I would definetly recemend this book to my friends.
237004,2,Excellent book - I couldn't put it down!,I'll make this review short and sweet.It was one of the best books I have ever read and I've read hundreds of books over my years. This held my interest so much that I had a problem putting it down every night and often found myself thinking about the character throughout my day. Excellent book and very well written. I wish there were more authors out ther that could write books like this. You will not be dissapointed with this one by any means.
237030,2,Unequaled Christian Fantasy,"J.R.R. Tolkien was undoubtedtly the premier Christian fantasy writer with his Lord of the Rings trilogy. Apart from that, I have not found any Christian Fantasy to speak of. I think C.S. Lewis wrote some sci-fi stuff (but no fantasy).This book is an exception. Of course, it does not compare to Tolkiens work, but it is SO good. If you are looking for great Christian fantasy (or not a Christian, but just like fantasy), this book is a great read. Alcorn really brings this other-world to life. The words make this world so visual. It really is a theatre of the mind!"
237032,2,Deadwood,"As real and gritty as it was in the Black Hills after Custers last stand. Wild, free, deadly, dangerous, exiting,no law, raw justice, no rules. Based on true accounts of the early days of the gold rush in the midst of the Sioux uprising. Some brave dudes those people of Deadwood."
237067,2,Love It!,"We bought one, liked it so much, we bought another. We bought them in 2007 and they still work great. Admittedly, we use them for crafts but for that, they can't be beat."
237078,2,Decent system,"Hi, this is my third bose sound system, the first being a lifestyle 8 system, a wave-radio and now this system.I bought this to replace my lifestyle 8 system, mostly on impulse for $1100. I was also planning to upgrade my sorround sound for a while.As one of the previous reviewers, this is probably not the best value for money. Dont get me wrong, the sound is quite good, but I do not see a major improvement in the sound quality over my 6 yr old lifestyle 8 system.Overall, I am happy with my purchase.Just a note for one of the previous reviewers, the ""boomy bass"" can be decreased if you adjust it throuh the remote..simply decrease the bass"
237171,2,Words are not enough,"Read this book. Actually, read the whole ""Imajica"" (I agree with the other reviewer who said that turning it into a two-book set was a mistake). It is the most entertaining, gripping, non-stop, un-put-downable book I've ever encountered. Barker has something to say and he pulls no punches. I had always envisioned him as a horror writer because of his Hellraiser series, and his collaboration with Stephen King on ""The Talisman"". But this book proves him as the premier fantasy author of our time. However, don't go looking for dragons and Barbarella. This is a fantasy that incorporates our 90's mentality and leaves you breathless. Clive, you outdid yourself. I'm reading it for the fourth time now :)"
237216,2,love it,"book is funny and true love the visuals cool beans i like it very much, fun time at parties and weddings"
237277,2,Is truly what it is,A good story of drama but to many dull points in the book. But the drama made-up for it.
237295,2,Great Story,"This is a well told story about a mother bunny and her many children. I pull this book out each spring; my children really enjoy the story. Even my youngest who is restless could sit through this story (41 pages) when she was two-years-old. The main focus of the story is the mother bunny&#65533;s desire to become the Easter Bunny. The story also contains delightful descriptions of the mother bunny&#65533;s childhood, the selection of the Easter bunnies and the difficult tasks that Easter Bunnies face each year. What I enjoy most about this story is the mother bunny's relationship with her children."
237304,2,Suprisingly accurate - the best,"On my trip to Paris, I found this book to be indispensible and carried it with me every day. I would recommend it (and already have to others and my library) for anyone visiting Paris for the first time."
237333,2,Brutal Viking Conquest!,"If you like progressive heavy metal and midieval/viking themes, you will find alot to like here. Songwriting, vocals, instrumentals, and production values are all stellar, something that's increasingly rare in the genre.If you like the themes and sound of bands like manowar, but want something that's more coherent, more historical, and less cheesy all around, I highly recommend you 'Let The Battle Commence' and buy this cd."
237348,2,Grandmother's Treasures: Reflections and Remembrances perfect,"My best friend is a first-time grandmother and family is everything to her. I chose this book especially for her so that she may one day hand it down to her grandson. It's beautiful in its color, design and layout. There are special pages for personal memories, photos and the family tree. I researched this and other books similar to it and this one came out on top. It's a great value and a beautiful book."
237379,2,A true masterpiece,"This is one of the most exhilarating books that I have ever come across. It engrosses the reader from the opening lines and keeps him captivated till the end.Having last cycled as a child, I feel thankful for my recent fluke reencounter with cycling for, amongst other things, it also allowed me to better understand the premises of this book.This compact account of an amateur bicycle race exemplifies in a dramatic way what it is to be human. Body and mind, agony and elation, resignation and purposefulness, lunacy and logic all interchanging and intertwining, amplified by the bicycle and broadcast unfiltered though the writing of Tim Krabbe.A rare opportunity at a glimpse into the mysterious, abysmally complex and brilliantly beautiful human psyche as it is teased into the open for the purpose of winning the Tour de Mont Aigoual."
237384,2,Great price and very effective,These filters are high quality and keep the coffee clear and tasting great. No coffee dust makes it through and they fit perfectly.
237409,2,Good range cleaning kit,"Was a bit surprised no one had reviewed this product yet. I got this kit for my some of my cap and ball revolvers (3 Remington 1858s in 5"" and 8"" barrels, .44 reproduction 1851 Colt Navy, and 1860 Colt Army) And I am pleased with the quality of this portable kit. Just stick it in your pocket or possibles bag with some solvent and leave the complete cleaning kit at home when you go to the range. Its got all the basics: a bore mop, a bronze and nylon brush, and a patch pusher. the whole thing stores in the base of the handle. I found the 2 piece brass rod long enough to reach all the way down to the cylinders. This product doesn't just have to be used with historic firearms either, its perfectly usable in modern .45, and .44 caliber guns. One thing to note: don't use the bore mop until you have totally finished cleaning the barrel. I would recommend this product and it helped me lighten my bag when I go to the range"
237448,2,Good for a 10Mbps Hub...,"I must say that for a simple non-switched 10Mbps Ethernet hub, this one is pretty good. The metal box and small size makes it pretty handy. Unfortunately it's pretty outdated for the things you can buy for a few more bucks. You're probably better spending your money on a Linksys EtherFast 5-port Worgroup Switch, which has a dedicated 100Mbps (or 200Mbps in full-duplex mode) of bandwidth in each port.... But if you're adament about a plain 10Mbps hub, this is a very good way to go."
237484,2,An Intimate Encounter with our Greatest President,"Many of the other reviews describe the book. I read it twice, some parts several times. The author conveys not only the historical Lincoln, his times, and the crises he faced, but the personal Lincoln as well, and this I found particularly gratifying. I felt, as I read the book, that I had gotten to know Mr. Lincoln, as if he were a living person, a ""regular guy"" in many respects. The author's ability to create a sense of closeness between reader and historical subject is one of the strongest features of this excellent, marvelously written book. The reader knows the end of the book, of course, and when the assasination occurs, the reader is left sad at the terrible loss to America and the course of history. A great book."
237493,2,Need to know RV,This is a very well produced and informative DVD but keep in mind that you NEED to know Remote Viewing.
237509,2,Popcorn Popper,"it works really well, and is really fun for my girls. i wish that it had a bit larger capacity though. And it is easier to just melt your butter in the microwave than in the butter dish on top, unless your butter is already at room temp."
237516,2,Popcorn Lover,My mother really enjoys her popcorn popper that uses this product and no one in Garden stocks them anymore so THANKS for having them.
237528,2,Does what it promises!,"I used it with 3 thick and juicy strips of bacon.. it took 2 minutes and 30 seconds. Bacon is crunchy, clean-up easy.. I love this thing."
237561,2,great product!,"This is a great product! I always think that freshly popped corn is better than microwave popcorn, and I like the idea of hot air poppers. There is no mess. I love that you can use the top to measure the popcorn kernals, and then use it to melt butter if you want it."
237618,2,Great Little Grinder,"I was looking for a cost effective device for mincing up flax seed and was pleased to spy the Proctor Silex E160B at half the price I would have had to pay at the local supermarket.It was delivered quickly and put to work the next day. It does a great job and, what is more, the cord stows away inside the body making it easy to store.I certainly recommend it"
237639,2,Live performance on 4/17 in NJ was amazing!,"I had never heard the music of Williams, Shindell and Kaplansky prior to their concert in NJ on 4/17. I was mesmerized by the beautiful harmony they created. Alone, they are clearly very talented. But together, their synergistic voices bring clarity and peace to both mind and soul. I can't wait to listen to the CD!"
237663,2,"Hard to clean, but otherwise great","I use this to grind coffee and flaxseed. It works great. It can be a bit hard to clean--definitely worth buying one of those brushes made for cleaning these, but even then you need to wipe it down, which can just be tough getting around and under the blade."
237669,2,Works fine.,"I only use this for grinding coffee beans, which it does well. I would prefer the cup to be a bit larger, but it's okay. Of course, you can't submerge the part with the blades, but that's true with any grinder."
237673,2,"it works, it's priced right","Over the years I've bought about a dozen grinders in this style and this one is my favorite. It grinds quick and even.This one is for work. For home I have a very nice burr grinder with which you can change the coarseness, select a number of cups, etc. Which is lovely but PRICEY. This little puppy is almost as good for a quarter the price.I've bought several of these (we use them for both coffee and spice grinding) and they do eventually break, especially if you make heavy use of them."
237701,2,Not the tourist view of Bellows Falls!,"I've said this before but it's worth repeating: Mayor is a fine writer and I've enjoyed all his books from the first to the latest. If you like police mysteries you'll find he is a craftsman of the first order. If you just like a good story and a well crafted plot, you can't go wrong with Archer. But be advised: The first of his books you read won't be the last!"
237765,2,An amazing story!,"I must join in on the praise for this wonderful memoir. Li Cunxin's account of his early life in China was so vivid that I literally shed tears for him. Later,I found myself cheering his brilliant successes in the ballet world. I could not put this book down, as I felt compelled to find out what was happening to Li Cunxin. The pages of pictures contained in the book added much to the telling of this story. You must read it."
237782,2,The whole series is spellbinding.,"I loved these books, I became so involved with the characters that when I came to the last page I almost cried. I have to get the rest of the books. I can hardly wait to start reading Zion Chronicles. Brock and Brodie captured me, they made me become more aware of the horrible reality of WW11. I will never forget."
237927,2,"HO Rustic Fence & Gate, 72""","ThisHO Rustic Fence & Gate, 72"" that I purchased through Amazon, is ideal for my model railroad layout and adds realism to my buildings on it"
237951,2,A Valuable Resource for Historians,"This is the most thoroughly researched biography of Butch Cassidy ever written. If you're looking for the facts, this is the place to find them. Patterson's experience as a lawyer has made him admirably skeptical, and he does his best to sort through the many conflicting accounts of Cassidy's life and death."
237964,2,Where is it???,"I LOVE this shampoo. When it disappeared from stores, I was still able to find it here. Where is it now??? It works so great on my dry hair - it's hard to find a good replacement. I hope it returns soon!!"
237990,2,Motorola does it again,"I have large ears so this earpiece works nicely for me, Works on either ear just swivel the earpiece.Finally got to use this over the weekend bow hunting deer and the vox feature on my MOT talk about radio's works very well. I enjoy the tactical fit and ease of use etc.Will be purchasing another soon for my hunting buddy.missing!"
238026,2,Better than the rest,"Intuitive and easy to use - no need to read the manual. The 10-digit keypad makes entering numbers as easy as entering a number on a phone. My other timers have fewer buttons and require scrolling which I find very frustrating. Also, it uses a common AAA battery rather than some expensive and hard to find watch battery. Highly recommended."
238115,2,You won't find another book book closer to the truth!,"This is a great book for new fathers. His writing style is truly remarkable. Mr. Barron's advice is nothing to take lightly and all soon-to-be fathers should take heed to his insights and warnings. Don't forget to check out his second book about after the baby is born, just as wonderful as this one!"
238122,2,Harriet Tubman from a different perspective,I don't remember seeing or reading a book on Harriet Tubman as a child. Wendy Lawton's account of Harriet Tubman's childhood life was very realistic to me. I could visualize the deplorable conditions of the slave quarters as well as the less than nice slave owners. The book is easy reading and peeked my interest right from the start. Well worth the reading.
238197,2,Good product,"I bought this a couple nights ago and have had no problems. Brownies came out great, cooked real even which actually made me kind of sad cuz I love burnt edges. :) Cleaned real easily and no weird smells that I'm aware of so I would definitely recommend purchasing this."
238212,2,Good system....................,"I got the psone in 2000. Before then I had been a Nintendo Person. Don't laugh, but all we has was a SNES, snd a NES. I was very pleased with it. The graphics were superb, but I wasn't very impressed with the controller setup. I did not like the feeling of the 2 joysticks. The games got scratched easy too. Also, the system would sometimes stop working, and the storage space availible on the memory card ( Not included ) was pathetic. I still own a PSONE and play it occasionally, but I have went back to Nintendo Gamecube."
238293,2,Great Product,This is a great product. It makes slicing pineapple a breeze. I highly recommend it to all.
238302,2,Excellent!,"This is an excellent DVD. The workouts and settings are very, very good. As the other reviews note, the workout does move rather quickly. However, after the first workout the pace is about right. The workouts leave you feeling toned and relaxed at the same time."
238503,2,Good value,"Not super exciting, but it has really gotten used by the children and therefore, it was a very good price."
238535,2,Love the color....,I Like the Chef pan A LOT. But the lid does not fit right. I have a hard time getting it to go on.
238545,2,The Heart of Love,"Grateful Day is an amazing emotional journey taking the listener to a higher realm of consciousness celebrating the reverence and joy of life. Beloved's talents as composer and pianist are extraordinary, uplifting and energizing the soul through her artistry, transporting you to the heart of love. You feel the experiences of a day lived in sacred union with the power of nature and the exquisiteness of its beauty. Grateful Day is a mystical wave radiating pure heart energy, exemplifying the path of love and light. This is perfect music for meditation and spiritual contemplation; it is a must have for your collection of sacred and loving music to listen to over and over again!"
238577,2,Best investment EVER!!!,"I love this mixer!! I had a Sunbeam, which, for the price, got the job done. BUT OMG! This mixer is WAY MORE amazing. It works so fast and well. And its purple! Who doesn't love that? I am trying to start a cookie delivery company and this took SO much effort out of making cookies. Its easy to clean, easy to assemble, easy to change the arms... I'm just in LOVE! Can't wait to use it for more things! And it made the best batches of cookies I've ever made!! Without a doubt, the best investment I could've decided to make."
238578,2,great for a unit on flight,Amelia Earhart Free in the Skies is a comic book style biography. We learn lots of neat thing about Amelia in this book. We learn that she made roller caosters in her own back yard with her sister. We learn about the ways she learn to fly and about her famous flights. Through out the book there are also facts mentioned about the Wright Brother and Charles Linburg.I like that the book was written in a comic book style. Sometimes kids feel like biography are boing. This format spices things up a bit making them enjoy the reading. The illustation are also interesting to look at as they read.I would recommed this book to reader ages 8-11. The books tells just enough about the Amelia Earheart without overwhelming the reader with details. It would make a great book to read during a unit on flight.
238580,2,FRESH TOPIC FOR TV,"An impressive idea about a professional team that can spot the smallest of lies based on body language, expressions and ""microexpressions"". The main character is compelling, the supporting cast is hit or miss. Most of the episodes are interesting and I appreciate how they show real clips of politicians and celebrities lying to us with their body language/facial expressions. Some of it is definitely pop psychology style but other parts are true and the main character is based on a real person. Most of the characters can't have satisfying love relationships because they catch their partners lying. Interesting theme about lies and love. How much do you expose and what do you let get by for the sake of the affair? DIALOGUE/CHARACTERS: B to B plus; STORY/PLOTTING: B to B plus; FRESHNESS FOR A TV TOPIC: A minus; OVERALL GRADE: B to B plus; WHEN WATCHED: October to December 2010 (streamed)."
238603,2,Rome inspired Romance with Audrey Hepburn,"Princess Anne is touring Rome, and decides to get 'out and about' away from her normal life. She meets with an American reporter and his photographer, who show her the sites. The reporter is initially more interested in a story than the Princess, but begins to fall for Her Highness..."
238632,2,Consider getting the CD version,The CD version has 5 CDs. Consider getting it because to hear everything spoken by the man himself is something. You realize how intelligent he is and how much America needs this person and how lucky we are he came to the forefront of American politics at this time.
238647,2,Darth Vader Costume,"We bought this Costume for my sons b-day. The theme was Star Wars and my husband wore this costume to surprise all the kids. They fought with their lightsabers and had a blast. Plus, my husband has a deep voice so the kids really thought he was Darth Vader. The quality is good for the price."
238679,2,This is a fantastic album,"Wow! What a great find this was. Every track is just awesome and the album is not repetitive, there is a lot of variety. This is one of the few albums I have that I can listen to over and over and enjoy it every time. The production and vocals on this album are top notch."
238689,2,Outstanding!!,"This book was an adventure all the way through. Every time that I picked it up, I found myself captured for hours as I devoured this fascinating book. Tarnoff does a magnificent job of transporting the reader with him to experience wondrous adventures in Europe, Africa, and Asia. I loved his picturesque descriptions as well as the poetic style of writing that emerges when he is describing certain experiences. Read this book and be prepared for a journey that will often make you laugh, sometimes make you cry, but in the end will leave you feeling good and triumphant."
238703,2,Leave your hypocrisy at the door,"If you are going to be offended and not enjoy a little humor, please don't buy this. On the other hand, if you enjoy good humor and some laughs, get this DVD. Enjoyed the show and hope that this is not all from this talented comedian."
238736,2,Lexmark #34 blk ink cartridge,This is the second ink cartridge that I have purchased from Amazon. I am very pleased with the product and recommend it to anyone.
238780,2,summaru,"John Phillips is an excellent commentary, he explanes it like it should be, my preacher recommended it during our study of Jesus' Revelation."
238815,2,"Great deal, speedy delivery",I bought this product for a VERY good price and received it from the seller in 2 days! I was very impressed with their attention to my order and their efficiency.
238825,2,Dreamy soft sheets,Beautiful rose colour and soft comfortable sheets - I'm glad that I bought 2 pairs- excellent

238855,2,Excellent Handheld!!!!,"I am sorry after reading these reviews I had to take the time to review this product, because the ZIRE 71 is getting a bad rap. This is an EXCELLENT handheld. I upgraded from a Palm M125 and I am so glad that I did. Here are my responses to some of the negative reviews. 1. If you charge your Zire EVERY NIGHT you will not have a low battery problem. 2. If you invest in a better case then you will cut down on your chances of cracking your screen (I mean you must use common sense also, when carrying/handling your handheld). 3. I have XP and have yet to run into any problems. As stated before this is an EXCELLENT handheld I would recommend it highly....."
238988,2,"Best introduction to ""sendmail"" that is available...","This book is an excellent introduction to the program ""sendmail"", co-authored by Paul Vixie who wrote what was known as ""King James Sendmail"", which was based on the original code from Eric Allman plus all the available patches he could find.This book isn't a great reference to have on the shelf, but you cannot find a better introductory text. This is an excellent book to give to your boss, if they demand to understand more about what you do in terms of managing the mail servers, etc....However, if you're going to be doing this job on a daily basis, then you also need the book _sendmail_ by Bryan Costales, published by O'Reilly & Assoc.Costales is an absolutely unbeatable reference book on sendmail, but isn't as good as an introductory text, if only due to its exhaustive completeness (over a thousand pages)."
239085,2,"I wouldn't call it perfect , but no way ""BORING""","Unless your mind isn't able to grasp a game that takes more than 'button a,b,c,d and 'R' this or that... This game could never be called boring. It is, however, complex, challenging, and requires more thought than you usual shoot 'em up rpg.Ofcourse This review is opinion. Take it as such. Games like Diablo (I & II), Soul Reaver (yadda yadda), and The like do necessitate more thought. Now to jump down off my soap box, I, end my review with this: I enjoyed it, try it for yourself bfore formng an opinion from this or any other rev. ..."
239110,2,Does it all,"Great tennis racquet. I agree with the review that said it's better than anything available at any price point years ago. Before playing again this week, the last time I played was 4 years ago, and my $100 racquet didn't touch this. Heck, my brother's $150 racquet still doesn't touch this. You name it... regular volleys, power shots, topspins, slices, I had no problem getting back into the hang of things with this racquet. Unless you are a club pro, you will not need more control than this. Work on improving your skills, then think about getting a better racquet. I haven't played on it long enough to comment on its durability... some negative reviews on here are disappointed with the quality of the grip. In my opinion, for a racquet this good at this price point, get an overgrip and call it a day."
239164,2,THE BRUTALITY OF NATIONS: THE NIGERIAN-BIAFRAN CIVIL WAR,This book captures the tragedy of a war that the world still knows very little about...the cost in human lives that in the end was about resource control...oil. What the Uzokwe family and the Igbos endured represent the triumph of the human spirit. A must read for everyone because there cannot be peace without justice.
239166,2,Fun and puch key messages,"This movie is fun/relax to listen, it provides situations that can append in your own family ... The situations are exagerated to make it fun. The lesbian & gay couple are playing with real great emotion. You must see this movie."
239190,2,Excellent book,"This is a great book for intermediate to advanced astrology buffs. If you like astrologers like Stephen Forrest, Liz Greene, and Stephen Arroyo then you will like Richard Idemon."
239218,2,One of the most pleasant books you will ever read,"A collection of letters from Uncle Ambrogio to his niece Gina. It is a tale of america from the eyes of an Italian who came to this country to live. It is a classic book filled with comedy, warmth and the love of family.From each misspelled word and mispoken phrase we see a love of family, a love of America and a love of life. Ambrogio is a man worth following after (except for when he tries to cheat on his driving test but you'll find out about that.)The letters a all no more than two pages and the best take place when he is still living with his sister ('Gina's Mother) Her death is a turning point in the book and the reader feels it keenly.I can't think of a more worthwhile book [....]"
239246,2,Great CD,"If you love great percussion, you will love this CD. Arvin Scott weaves a dazzling tapestry of percussive counterpoint in this breathtaking display of musicianship and virtuosity. Follow your mind through the ever expanding layers of these, captivating and hypnotic, tracks and discover the ""Spirit of the Drum"". Buy it now!"
239270,2,Thank You ! Progressive Multi Opener,My grandmother loves this opener. It makes opening stuff so much easier for her.Thank You!Janet1-5-2011I just wanted to write an update. My Grandmother is still using her opener. She says it is one of the best gifts that she has ever gotten. So if you have anyone that has trouble opening plastic soda bottles or other things buy this
239276,2,Replacement Espresso/Cappucino carafe,Product delivered in a timely manner. Product was brand new in the box. Very satisfied.
239278,2,Stylish storage!,"First off, I'm a fan of 3-D items in general so when I can get a useful item covered in lenticular vinyl, I'm in!The color changing aspects are bright and lively (I have the red/blue) and the zipper is plastic with a solid metal zipper pull. I've filled the sleeves to near capacity and the case doesn't seem overly stuffed.The insert is the standard clear/white fabric backed cd/dvd sleeve, cheapish but fine.Outer case is quite strong and thre zipper well sewn to the casing.I find these great and a friend loved the idea of a dvd library looking so flash.Love 'em!"
239300,2,PRISONER OF THE MOUNTAINS,"In Prisoner of the Mountains, Sergei Bodorov directs his son, Sergei Jnr (star of the stylish gangster movie 'Brother).Bodorov Jnr is a fresh recruit in the Russian Army captured after a bloody ambush by a group of militant Chechens. The film follows his unusual imprisonment in a Chechen Village.Every scene is superbly framed, the camera work first rate and the whole movie is a delight to watch. Both Bodorov and his companion Sacha, played by Oleg Menmshikov relish their parts and give first rate performances."
239324,2,Never buy Pam again!,This works great... pump it ten times and sprays just like Pam does. You will never have to buy Pam again
239359,2,Machismo Par Excellance,"It never cease to amaze me how awesome Frank Miller is as BOTH artist and storyteller. If you have had the pleasure of enjoying his earlier works, and honestly what comic book aficionado have not, this is a must have.If you seek a compelling story about unrelenting bravery and honour, this is definately also a book for you. In so many ways, 300 is a refreshing forray into traditional macho virtues and values, something rarely expressed in a sensible way in today's society.So for all the big boys out there, get 300, kick back in your favourite comfy chair and gush with delight as King Leonidas does the unthinkable at Thermopyl."
239363,2,The artwork alone sold this book for me.,"The story was was very fast-paced. It was the first graphic novel that I have read from Miller and I loved it, the artwork was incredible."
239388,2,Christmas Gift,"I bought this for my three year old grandson. It was not easy to put together, but he loves it."
239394,2,What book of Lauraine Snelling won't you like?,I have almost read all of her books. This book was the second in a 3 book series and it was just wonderful. I love the storyline and had a hard time putting it down wondering what was going to happen next. Lost many hours of sleep reading this book but well worth it!
239463,2,Excellent first album,"I remember hearing this guy's music on the internet and was just caught up by the end.I love his music especially his slow cuts. I haven't even listend to the whole album can I can't get over the sound titled ""you"".I think if you like Eric Roberson, you will defanitely like this guy."
239475,2,The best most comfortable shoes,These shoes are the best. They are so comfortable and really cute. I got the lilac patchwork ones and I wish I had gotten a couple of more colors before they sold out.
239549,2,Very Happy With This Cable,"This is a great cable and is exactly what I was hoping for to connect my laptop to my tv so now everything I see on my laptop I can display on the tv. I got it for videos and movies and it works great for those. The 12ft of cable is just enough to reach from behind the tv, down the wall, across a few feet of floor and up to my laptop resting on the coffee table."
239643,2,Synopsis,"In a genteel seaside resort, an elderly student dies horribly. Her tutor, Mig, pieces together Dulcie's fragmented writing and the investigation snowballs outside the comfortable, middle class lesbian community. Can Mig, or her relationships,survive, let alone stop the complex network of violence."
239645,2,"Good, but there's ""More Than This"".","I do have to say that all these songs I love, and that Roxy Music is one of a kind. BUT, despite all the collections they've released, they all fall short. This is good because it has no Bryan Ferry solo material, but that's also why it's bad. It's hard to hear these songs and not want to also hear ""Slave To Love"", ""Kiss And Tell"", and ""Don't Stop The Dance"". However to really get it all, you'd have to go for the 3 disc ""Platinum Collection"". What would complement this well though, is a simple ""Best Of Bryan Ferry"". Still waiting for that one."
239678,2,The Hundred Dresses,Five granddaughters who read and enjoyed this book and all commented on bullying they had received but now chose to ignore.
239761,2,Theme vs. Genre,"The ending of this book was bit confusing with the dreamlike state the characters are in, it seemed rushed. A good read up until then.I liked the humanity of the book, particularly the look into New Yorks underworld. The whole books theme was about outcasts. The witches were outcasted from their town, Naomi and Jake were outcasts from their town, and the subway dwellers in New York were outcasted from the city. For me, a books theme is more important than conform to a particular genre. Clegg lets the human struggles take the foreground instead of horror cliches."
239886,2,a sometimes over-winding but lyrical perspective,"Stevenson seems haunted by Sylvia's voice, because she does not carry the average tone of biographer. This is the first Plath biography I've read, but only because it was the only one that caught my attention immediately. My answer to the less-positive reviews...ALL accounts are biased. It is up to us to collect what we can and make some sense of it."
239938,2,"I love it, I love it, I love it.",I was starting to wonder if anyone was stealing my mail. I also ordered another product at the same time and both pieces including this piece was never delivered. I phoned this company and they quickly sent me out another copy. Now thats service. I will surely order from them again.
239947,2,The CD Is Far From Trash,"""White Trash Lullabies"" is Spank The Monkey's 2nd cd. If I have to use only one word to sum up the cd, it'd be ROCKS! Straight out of Lafayette, LA, I've watched this band grow. They were awesome in the beginning and only get better and better. ""White Trash Lullabies"" is proof of their awesome talent, which has carried over to ""3"", the third cd, and you want it, too! Spank The Monkey is overall an awesome rock band, but they are diversified at the same time. ""White Trash Lullabies"" is proof of that and of how well they can put it all together. This cd is a must have cd. ""Breathe"" deserves a rock award! It has been heard world-wide. ""One and Only One"", written for a child is heart clinching. I could go on and on about the vast greatness of this cd. Add it to your collection."
239962,2,Love it but...,"I absolutely adore this product -- especially the ceiling ""light show"" and the volume settings. My only complaint is that the motor is loud, so the lowest volume setting is kind of obsolete (in other words, if you have the music volume on low, the sound of the motor drowns out the music). I haven't heard anyone else complain about this though, so maybe it's just me?"
240004,2,Amazing!,"I was introduced to Jean Luc Ponty's music with the albumOpen Mind.I love the trancy, moving, eretheral sound that seemto transport you to another place and time.My favorite cutsare Infinite pusuit and Elephants in love.All of the albumis simply amazing.His futuristic sound and style was wayahead of his time!"
240125,2,Lundberg Organic Brown RIce Cakes,"I have ordered these several times now and I am very pleased with the experience. I used to buy them at local stores but they were often stale. Then I ordered them direct from the manufacturer, but that was actually more expensive. Through Amazon they have been very fresh and less expensive."
240155,2,Good Value for money. Not for very high end applications,I haven't had many issues with this router. Setting it up is easy. The only problem is that it goes down once or twice a week. This problem can be rectified by disconnecting the power source and reconnecting it again.
240271,2,Nice!,This slate is exactly as promised. The cells are nice and large and it is a good sturdy item. I can throw this in my purse and travel with it and not have any fear of it breaking like a plastic one. This is definately worth the price and often used in my house!!
240283,2,the best!!,"this bible is my favorite when it comes to drawing closer to God. you must not consume it all,all is not appropiate for consumption! proceed with prayer and discernment,and you will not want too be without it!"
240325,2,This book transforms the way you think.,This reading has enhanced my field of questioning the basic in the field of communication. It once again proves how uncommon is the common sence approach. It is a cultural shock to the people who have analogue thinking or the approach. But a trnsformation to the real digital world.
240407,2,Good Stuff!,"Once you get past the fact that the smell is a little strong (Rose, baby powder, and a touch of citrus) and put it on your skin, it's amazing! My skin is super soft and smooth, moisturized but not greasy, and it is even soothing on some of my red, irritated, acne prone areas.Awesome!"
240460,2,Kitchens,"I have lots of decorating books, but this one is very nice. I am looking to decorate my kitchen. What more can I say?"
240474,2,A week to even to deliver let alone get!?!,It said in stock so one figures it would ship out like the rest of the items for the project did. It said would ship in one week but it arrived sooner. They look great. So upcoming weekend will see how they do and until then raise up the ranking.
240570,2,"Crafting a unique, personal, and relaxing atmosphere","Written by gardening expert Keith Davitt (winner of the Herald Award for Excellence in Garden Communication), Beyond The Lawn: Unique Outdoor Spaces For Modern Living is a simply beautiful and exceptionally ""user friendly"" sourcebook of ideas for creating harmony with stone, brick gravel, rock, water, herbs, conifers, planted pots, native and wild plants. Lavishly illustrated with full-color photography, Beyond The Lawn is a treat to page through and recommended for gardeners everywhere looking to add a bit of originality to the grounds outside their home. Offering a vast panoply of materials for crafting a unique, personal, and relaxing atmosphere, Beyond The Lawn is a welcome and enthusiastically recommended addition to professional and personal gardening reference collections."
240582,2,Better than the first volume.,"Man I'm a big fan of these kind of albums.For one thing this has a lot of my favorite artists,like Underoath,Norma Jean,Saosin,Aiden,Unearth,God Forbid,A Life Once Lost,and Zao.I like the way they put emo,punk,and screamo on disc 1 and metal on disc 2.I liked the first volume but it didn't have that many big songs from the bands on it.But on volume two it has most of the bands best on it.Can't wait till they make a volume three.Also check out Take Action,Warped Tour,and Punk-O-Rama for more of your favorite bands."
240603,2,Anything is better than a plain steel toe boot!,"The instructions, which I didn't read, tell you to throw out the existing insoles in your shoes. I didn't do that and these sucked for about a week as they slid around and were uncomfortable. Then I read the instructions and rectified this mistake. I guess RTFM applies to gel inserts too...Now they are very comfortable. They could be better, but I am happy with them. I gave the other pair to my father-in-law and he loves them too."
240685,2,"Good, but missing tables","The CD is great especially for pronunciation. However it appears that tables are missing. For example, the word ""calendar"" lists different types of calendars--Julian, Gregorian, Chinese, Jewish, Muslim. When I look up Gregorian calendar, the definition refers me back to the ""table"" in the word calendar. However there is no table. I called Random House about the apparent error, and the technical area said I was correct, no table exists (in the CD version that is). Another example is the word ""Bible"". Most dictionaries list the books of the bible in table format. This one does not. Other than the missing tables, I find the CD good."
240694,2,Really as advertised,"The order was for an exceedingly rare early album of Oregon; it appeared on my doorstep exactly on time and as perfect as its promotion said it would be. Each cut of this double album was perfect, no skips, pops or scratches. Even the cover is a virgin! The best!"
240698,2,you'v got mail,"mostly enjoyable, original score from movie plus endings of tunes not played in the movie."
240710,2,mae in her day,"i love mae west,and this is one great collection,with excellent video quality.if you love classic movies get this. it has all the elements of 30's movies."
240762,2,Awesome,"Mae is the epitome of what emo pop energetic rock should be. By far the CD of the summer. These guys have great energy and its nice to hear band that actually has something to say. Fans Juliana Theory, The Get Up Kids, Etc. will enjoy this band. Truly great rock, and great band. Check out their web site."
240862,2,Good,I bought this for my husband and he enjoyed it. He is a cowboy and likes to read cowboy stories.
240879,2,Great band...,"...great music and this is one great concert dvd. I've not seen MMJ live yet, but hope to soon.Awesome stuff!"
240961,2,Love this item,This lotion is great and I can't find it anywhere on Long Island. I will definitely buy this again. It arrived perfectly and intact.
240974,2,Nice little lens-great clarity,"I have this on my DCR-HC30 camcorder...it really opens up the viewing angle and looks more natural to my eye than the stock lens by itself.One interesting thing I noticed is that detail and clarity actually seem better... it adds a nice 'pop' to the images, and like another reviewer I don't like to take it off(!)"
240991,2,And the walls came down,I pulled a thousand feet of this wire through my house during a remodel. It is in-wall rated and solid core and 350 MHz so I will get gigabyte Ethernet through it when all is said and done. All 1000 feet pulled easily from the box. I can't wait to punch down the wires to the panel (using the Trend-Net 24 port) and test out the throughput.
241088,2,Best Series on T.V.,Loved all seasons of Friday Night Lights. Phenomenal acting and relatable characters. Best series I've watched in a long time.
241100,2,Best Headache Book for Physicians on the Market,"The 2nd edition of this book is now available. This book had previously been reviewed as the best headache book on the market for physicians. It describes in detail all the different types of headache and dicusses all treatment and medications available. It is particularly good for what to do when nothing works. Although initially intended for physicians, this book is very understandable and readable for the patient as well. This is a ""must have"" for anyone suffering from headache."
241200,2,A great stovetop accesory.,It is easy to use and versatle as a pot or a skillet.Safe from toxins of Aluminum or teflon.I even use it when I go camping.Just keep it seasoned and it lasts for Centuries.
241202,2,Great product,"I used this to drill grommet-holes through about two inches of plywood. I was somewhat concerned because the alternatives were so much more expensive, but it worked great. I mounted it to my cordless hand drill and it worked just fine, and after two drillings it has some smudges on the paint but is otherwise none the worse for wear."
241279,2,Thought provoking and wonderful,"First - a bias - Melissa is a dear friend. However, going beyond that, it was a wonderful book which speaks of courage and committment to an ideal which is rare in these troubled times. I felt it is relevant in helping one deal with the many wildernesses in life - the real woods, the complex wilderness in which we all live from day to day and the wilderness within. I highly recommend this ""labor of love"" to anyone."
241330,2,Amazing,"This crinkle sleeper is perfect for my business of ferrets. It hangs from the top of the cage which I didn't realize when I purchased it. I purchased it as a sleeper for when they were out and about or as a toy to play with. But when I received the item it was a hanging sleeper which is perfect. Because of the crinkle in it, if the cage is somewhere near where people sleep at night, I would suggest taking the sleeper out of the cage. It is very noisy at night. But overall the construction is very good, the size is decent and my ferrets love it. So I love it as well :)"
241375,2,Perfect for not so sturdy walkers!!,"I bought these for my toddler daughter after trying several pairs of flipflops with the strap on the back. These are the easiest to keep on and for her to walk in. Also, the thong strap stays in the right place between her toes instead of slipping around between the other toes! They are really cute and very sturdy."
241382,2,Best headphones I've ever heard,These are excellent headphones. The sound is awesome and so natural. They are really comfortable too - so light weight I forget I'm wearing them. It's hard to believe these are wireless as there is no background noise whatsoever. The recharge feature is really easy to use - just hang up the headphones on the charger support.
241393,2,Comprehensive standard concordance,"In this volume, Mounce offers a standard concordance of the English Standard Version of the Holy Bible. This includes a straight index of all words except the c. 100 most common (""a"", ""about"", ""after"", ""against"", ""all"", ""also"", ""am"", ""among"", ""an"", ""and"", ""are"", etc.)For every word occurence it includes the reference and immediate context. For example, the entries for 'Beholds' are:riddles, and he B the form of the Lord. Nm 12:8has looked on it; man B it from afar. Jb 36:25This does not include source language references. On the one hand, as a corcordance of an excellent translation -- hopefully soon the de facto English language standard as the KJV once was -- it is a useful reference book. On the other hand, I am not sure of the place a paper concordance has in an electronic world, especially since it does not add any new content such as source language: I find myself rather using the CD included with the version of the ESV Bible I bought."
241420,2,My Families history,The book was researched in telling who the people were that are in the story and what role they played in the community . Pictures are excellent . This is a history of the Dulany family that lived around Upperville and their extended family from farther away and the pressures of war they were living under.The story was written during the war and only edited now by Peggy Vogtsberger .Help was given by a number of family members in giving genealogy and history of the family and the area.
241445,2,Great buy,The is the best CD I have bought in a very long time the whole CD is good.Its brilliant.Christine
241446,2,Classics,First of all I'm not reviewing about the price of these and I'm not going into great detail about each volume. Anyone looking up Looney Tunes or anything associated with the franchise should be a fan and I'm sure each of you have seen these cartoons enough for me not to go into detail. Sure they're a little expensive but think about it what series on DVD isn't?
241451,2,Slug 7 Strikes Solid,"After all of these years the combo of Slug and Ant is a potent as ever. For all who say that Lucy Ford was the last hot album, you must not be listening to the music like the other 99% of Atmosphere fans are. On the mic slug is undisputed that also goes for Ant's production. This is a lethal album that all Hip Hop heads should purchase, Seven's Travels has the capabilities to program your circuitry. As all Atmosphere albums, Seven's Travels is the Scarface of Hip Hop, another classic. If you dig real music buying this album will not be a mistake. 100% approval rating from The Heartland. This album is The Fifth Element of Hip Hop Music. If your still not sure on the puchase go to rhymeayers.com and check the dates when Slug rips through your city to see him live for more proof.P.S. Slug, Brother Ali, and Ant are blowing up!!!"
241500,2,CSI,This series seems to be getting better and better. I didn't think my allegiance could change from the original to a newer one but I have to say that CSI:NY does the trick. Long may it continue (along with my other love CSI:Miami
241590,2,Heart touching and eye opening,"This book is full of emotions that a girl goes through when she has been taken advantage of by an older man. I guess this book is so mind-provoking because I know the author personally. She is a dear friend of mine and I know that she put a lot of tears and time into this book. This is her way of dealing with this incident. Now she is doing well, thankfully. Anyway, read this book if you like poetry that is slightly erotic and emotionally provoking."
241654,2,It's a Keeper! Let's hope for more.,I am glad to see this edition of the JGB getting a full scale archival release. The sound is together and the performance is wonderful. Lots of tasty playing. I can't wait for the next one.
241663,2,Overall is good!,"My daughter likes it but I accidentally bought 2 and contacted amazon, was told I have to pay shipping to send it back. Well, it's not Amazon's fault, I just don't feel very comfortable, so 4 stars. :):) Well, I should rate it 5 actually. :)"
241710,2,Mind Over Mood,This book has some really great concepts that used alone I might not be willing or emotionally strong enough to do. My therapist helps to motivate me and to talk about what leads my current status of modd over my mind.Recommend.
241743,2,Hilarious CD!,"This CD is great! If you don't want to spend a lot of money on the box set, get this instead. Many of the same tracks are here. Lots of great performers: Bill Murray, Christopher Guest, John Belushi, Brian Doyle-Murray, Chevy Chase, Brian McConnachie, Harold Ramis, Joe Flaherty, Gilda Radner. VERY FUNNY!"
241749,2,A Tom Clancy Novel on Television,"24 has done what no other show in televison has done before, they have mastered the art of taking 5 different people and simultaniously showing their day. By then end of the season you feel like you know the characters and think this might actually be a real story. The way it is produced makes it seem like it goes faster than it is. It doesnt seem like a full season by the time it ends. To take the ability to take a Tom Clancy novel with all of its characters and points of view and make it into an easy to follow, suspenceful and action packed 24 episodes is probably one of the greatest accomplishments of Televison Arts today (NOTE: Tom Clancy Novels are not being reproduced in this show as episodes or seasons)."
241769,2,great perfume great service,"In perfume there is a great rage of preferences, but I would like to appoint that the service of seller was great !!"
241772,2,Great product,I like this poster a great deal. The quality is good and the detail of the poster is clear. Excellent item for the price.
241787,2,Book,The content of this book is outstanding. It assist with the learning process of how to approach patients with different backgrounds and mental illnesses.
241833,2,"So easy, works great","These are so inexpensive, easy to install, and work like a charm .. one of the few child resistant items that have held up to my child!!!"
241838,2,Much Better Read Than Any Other Book I Bought This Month.,Good read. Great for trips as short reads go. One of the better books I've ordered.
241857,2,"sturdy, but size problem","this holder is very thick and sturdy. However, i got the 1 liter size. I have different size, shape and style bottles. It is too tall for all of them. It fits very snug in diameter. I have the top rolled down (like a waist band that's too high). I plan on ordering the smaller size to see if it fits better, though i have a feeling if the height fits, the width may be too small.also, the pocket on the front is pretty small...(compared to my old one)... my cell phone will just barily fit, so i guess it's just big enough for me...(but i have a small phone)"
241988,2,Diggin the CDB,I bought this album (I agree - sorry CD)when it was brand new and have kept it ever since....Saw the CDB right after his came out and have been hooked ever since...
242070,2,doesn't stick,"After 30 years with a stainles steel pot, I grew tired of foods sticking to the bottom of the pot. Foods do not stick to the bottom of this pot! I love it! Its easy to clean,too."
242083,2,LOVED IT!!!,"I loved Gidget growing up and looking back at the fashion, I found myself saying, I had that outfit!!! It was very relaxing to sit back and ""enjoy the show"". What a simpler time it was."
242169,2,Excellent read,"I know there has been a big hoopla about James Frey and that he embellished his book to the point of lying. I also know that Oprah stood behind him when she called the Larry King Show, but inevitably changed her mind and apologized to the world on her talk show recently. I saw her show when James Frey was on (both times), and to tell you the truth I felt bad for him the last time he was on (just a few days ago)when Oprah lamblasted him from all sides. I'm actually surprised that he would subject himself to all that humiliation.Personally I do not believe anything in ""type"" anymore, because so many people lie. I used to trust my hometown newspaper, but not anymore. Sensationalism seems to be where it's at. You see it daily on the newscasts. So, whether or not James Frey lied is irrelevant to me personally, because I did enjoy his story."
242212,2,Great family film,"Another instant hit with the family. Great story, excellent message and very fun, heartwarming and wholesome entertainment. Wish all the Wonderful World of Disney films were available for purchase."
242246,2,Get it done,"If you love beautiful gardens in California, but haven't a clue how to go about creating one, this is your book. Landscaping made simple is how I'd describe this book. One of the best features in the book is that you can see the full height/growth potential of different plants and trees. Also, there is a detailed guide on what grows where using a number system to trace each section. Thus, you won't fall too hard for any plant, flower or tree that hasn't a chance of thriving in your particular environment. On the other hand, you can plant with confidence those garden items that will succeed in your home. As surrounding yourself with nature can soothe the soul, this book serves as a handy tool in eventually finding a garden sanctuary.Love, Mom: A Mother's Journey From Loss to Hope."
242252,2,Can't beat it,For the price of under $1.00 this can't be beat! I already had a cherger that came with my phone but for this price I had to get it as a replacement.
242254,2,Definitely a HOOWAY for Wodney Wat,"This is a fantastic, inspirational book for readers young and old. I was pleasantly surprised at the audio CD that came with it, too! My students loved it!"
242268,2,Guayaki tea is great,"I love the Guayaki brand and had seen the chocolatte flavor online but never in stores until my last trip to Mother's Market (where it was on sale for 4.19, regularly 6.49.) I'm glad I picked it up, it's a great tea, great flavor, no sweetener needed but it tastes closer to chai to me than it does chocolate. I add a tablespoon of organic cacao powder and some organic vanilla almond milk to make it a ""dessert tea."""
242294,2,Great Product,"Great Product, however put foil down in the oven, this product leaks when baking in them. You will end up with a big mess."
242344,2,Good machine for the money,Everything I expected for the money. Im the only one who uses it and its a great workout for me!
242364,2,What you've heard's all true!,"You mean you haven't bought it yet? You mean you haven't bought ANY of their discs yet? Read these reviews, brothers & sisters: Would we all lie to you? CHECK THESE GUYS OUT!"
242372,2,great soccer,"The Damned United is an excellent film based on a true story. Michael Sheen(?sp) is, as usual, excellent, and the story is well written. Obviously, it helps if you like soccer, but, even if you don't, it holds up well. Definitely a top 10 sports movie."
242375,2,Just an all around very good phone.,"After getting myself a new VX8700, I picked up a new VX8300 for my girlfriend. The VX8300 is not the prettiest or thinest phone Verizon offers, but it seems to be one of their best performers. Sound quality, speakerphone, RF, and battery life all seem very good. The camera takes decent pictures. It has just about all the features you expect in a phone today too. With a new contract, you can get it for $50 or less. At this price, I give it 5 stars."
242392,2,Must have,This movie is a must have for every Toshiro Mifune fan. Animeigo did an excellent job on the transfer. Highly recommended if you enjoy action/drama samurai films.
242424,2,Tiffany's sophomore effort is mediocre,"Tiffany Renee Darwich's sophomore effort is mediocre compared to her 1987 self-titled debut. ALL THIS TIME is the only Top 10 hit from this set,released in fall 1988. Darwich was still relentlessly receiving fanletters and appearing in teen-oriented publications such as 16,Bop and Teen Beat. However,in 1987 and '88,MCA was distributing many hit records recorded by Darwich's labelmates Bobby Brown,Elton John,The Jets,New Edition and others."
242435,2,oh man it is juicy!,mp3 player movies shows it sounds like a psp but it is just the same only cheaper and for kids! i do though have a psp i love my juice box and will keep it and i also watch sonic x on it.
242494,2,cupstacking video,Amazed at what children of all ages and disabilities can do with these cups. It certainly is a good hand coordination activiy for any young children. Very pleased with this purchase.
242530,2,Great product at a nominal price,"Great transaction, product is of very high quality selling at a nominal price. I am not sure why other companies are selling this product at an exorbitant price. Overall transaction was very smooth, super quick shipping process.Product worked perfectly with Comcast HD Reciever and Toshiba DVD player connected with a Sharp 42inch HDTV. Both video and audio performance are incredible.I will recommend this product to anyone anytime."
242541,2,HDMI cable,Bought and received a 6ft hdmi cable looks great and appears to be in working condition. As far as HDMI cables go its great!
242575,2,"superb cable and price, responsive customer service","The cable works great. It didn't arrive when I'd thought it would (having coughed up for speedy shipping), and without my asking, Abacus comped me the shipping charges. Needless to say, I'll look to buy from them again!"
242636,2,It is excellent for its price as well as the delivering service.,"Compared with my old one which needs to keep in some position for working, It's good for its quality. Considering its price as well as the free delivering, it is excellent."
242640,2,hdmi cable a hidden success,My package may have came later.. however I finally got my package of my HDMI cables in the mail.. great for the price of cheap
242656,2,It works,Its cheaper than buying the same cord from the name brand stores that always try to sell it to you the same minute you purchase your HD tv. They charge 50 and better for these inexpensive cables if there is a difference with the end results of the name brand cable and this one please let me know.
242676,2,Taking a walk down memory lane,I just finished reading Back in the Daze. This is a good book to read. I find the characters well- written. Some of them remind me of people that I grew up with in Harlem. It is a compelling story that keeps me guessing if she will succeed with her plots and plans. Somewhere along the line a movie or play will be made of this book.
242697,2,Three giants !,"Otis Rush, Eric Clapton, and Luther Allison all on the same album ? Are you kidding ? Not the best Otis Rush ""live"" album (that title goes to Live in San Francisco"" from 1997, which is great), but very good."
242716,2,Shampoo- ease Tray,"I bought this to do hair at a retirement home. It is a little tricky to use in a shampoo sink because of the cut out for the neck, it would work better in a regular sink. The suction cups are very strong so that helps. I have to adjust the chair ( height and closeness to the sink) for every customer. Keep the water pressure low or it sprays out of the tray. They need to keep their neck against the tray at all times or the water runs down the back, especially if the hairline is low. I would also recommend using a shampoo cape( bought at a beauty supply store)with a towel wrapped around the neck underneath the cape. Even with all that I sometimes end up getting alot of water on the floor. Its not perfect but it does help."
242755,2,Lamaze Play & Grow Jacques the Peacock Take Along Toy - Aw Jacques,So colorful and entertaining for a baby. Hangs anywhere with the attached ring. Great for a baby's visual senses and eye hand coordination. Love to give this as a baby shower gift.
242761,2,Jane Austen writes Doc Smith,"High-powered space opera, spinning off ideas like fireflies; things tossed off as asides that would power entire books by lesser authors.Characters of immense depth and subtlety, in a complex and fascinating society, with gradually unfolding plots of depth and beauty (and horror, when considering some of the darker wheels within wheels turning inside the society of the Panarchy and its enemies). Heroes and villains, who are never cartoon-simple.Very considerable skill in writing.The rewrite for the e-book edition makes some things a trifle clearer that were confusing in the paper edition, but having these hard-to-find books now easily available is a great joy for the space opera fan.You need to read this, now."
242828,2,Heartening Motivation,DIAMONDS is a well crafted affirmation that values of quality can be put into action in anyone's life with enriching results. The comfortable pace and use of real life illustrations encourage the reader to pause and consider how the qualities described could impact their own experience. I intend to reread DIAMONDS and have recommended it to others.
242834,2,Excellent,every book that I have read in this series is wonderful..Maggie Shaynes vampires are captivating...RE-PRINT THESE BOOKS....PLEASE!
242883,2,An Underrated Classic,"Finally! After years of wishful thinking, it's happened. I'm so glad that animated Alf has seen the light of day! Over the years I managed to find a few PAL videotapes which I transferred to NTSC, but having so many episodes finally available on DVD is great. As was mentioned, the Alf animated series ranks up there with other modern classics. I've never understood why it didn't develop more of a following among animation fans, maybe these two releases will change that. Even folks who aren't fans of the 'flesh and fur' Alf owe it to themselves to check out the animated series. It is quite different from the primetime TV show, it has much more of an edge...very bizarre at times. The writing is excellent, as is the voice characterization. Awesome stuff all around, highly recommended!"
242893,2,Old but good,Love this one. Must've bought it half-a-dozen times. Everybody wants one and they take it from me.
242928,2,Surprisingly sweet...,"Ms.Macnaughton has really captured my ear with her style to create a feeling in her music that we all share and equate to. Her style is unique and resembles Sarah McLaclen some what, but only to a degree and the rest is for us to decide on why she is such a wonderful surprise ."
242953,2,"Good MP3 player, weak built-in amp, useless video feature","It's your usual Apple iPod only with a different design and shape. The interface is nice and had cover-flow mode as well as many cool games. The player has weak built-in amp so you always listen to it at over 80% volume, more often at max volume actually. The standard iPod headphones are not that great but get the job done. The video capability is useless...you are not going to watch a 2 hour movie on an airplane using a 0.00001 inch screen."
242979,2,THE BEST HORSE MOVIE,This movie is above five stars!!! I have watched it a total of five times and I don't usely watch movies over and over but this one surely made me watch it more than once!!! It is the best horse movie I have seen!! This movie made me realize a totaly different way to see horseback riding!! The movie Second Chances is a very heartwarming video and you must she it your self!!!...
243023,2,Instant walking transformation!,"With the StarMark collar our 8 year old dog, Sasha, has learned how to walk again without pulling! Every spring/summer we have to spend hours working with her and reteach her to not pull. My parents have a similar product and their Dog walks perfectly without a leash! We tried the collar on Sasha and instantly she was walking better! My neighbor often takes her for walks and has notice a difference, she even told us of one time when she put the leash on the wrong collar, realized it because of Sasha's pulling, switched collars and she immediately started walking like a good girl again!"
243061,2,even and old man can use,While the instructions were clear to an earlier generation I found it difficult to set up but it was easily done by someone two generations younger than I. The unit works flawlessly and sends a strong signal through out the house allowing us to have wireless access.
243087,2,A Real Change for my Dog,I have a three year old lab and I did not really think this would work on him. He is a tough dog. I was surprised that it did work on him. He does not tug on the leash as much as he did before.
243160,2,Dress Up Your Table,"These bottles will certainly dress up your dinner table. They are leak proof and very attractive.You don't have to worry about impurities entering your food and body as these bottles are made of glass. The seal is tight to ensure no spillage and to keep your liquids fresh. The tiny opening in the stopper allows some air to enter, but the contents remain sealed within."
243165,2,Nice arrangements,Very simple piano arrangements of music used in the stated Jane Austen novel videos. I was interested in the Italian Aria by Jeremy Sams from Persuasion & was glad it was included. These arrangements are a good foundation and may be expanded upon if one has the ability and interest to do so.
243217,2,readable books,"So far the books that I have ordered, weather they were used or brand new have been in excellent condition. I will continue to order through Amazon"
243272,2,very gentle vibrate feature,"Overall, a decent foot spa, especially considering the price. Agreeing with an earlier reviewer, the ""massage"" feature is really a very gentle vibration, which did relax my feet more than I thought it would. The heat function is nice, adequate, but doesn't keep the water hot for quite as long as higher-end models I've tried. Fine for 20 minutes, though. The blue hood IS removable. It takes a little bit of force, but it's obvious from the construction that it is supposed to come off, and it certainly makes it much easier to clean. I am returning mine after the first use because the bubble feature for the right foot doesn't work, a problem an early reviewer ran into as well . . . I'm concerned about how long the product will last, since arriving broken is not an auspicious beginning, so I may spend a few extra dollars to try to find something that will last longer."
243285,2,Love Them!,"I'm trying to update and cutesy up my kitchen on a budget, and also trying to save some cabinet space. Well, and to be honest, I was tired of my 2 year old dumping flour and sugar all over the floor! So anyway, I searched high and low for a pretty set of red canisters that were big enough to hold the staples. I finally settled on these, and they are just what I was looking for. The sizes are good, the seals are airtight (you can hear the sucking sound when you open them), and they are really pretty. They have nice raised details on them that don't really show in the picture, and each one is a little different. I ordered these in red, and the spoon rest and utensil crock in gold to get that nice Fiesta look for a fraction of the price. Awesome."
243296,2,Kind of....,"I personally like this doll,mainly because of the make-up,the crazy hair and the skin tone.The only thing I don't like is the skimpy clothing.You'd think she was lingerie model more than a carnival worker!An overall great doll."
243322,2,Miss Scotto is superb!,"Miss Renata Scotto is superb in this belcanto masterpiese. In my opinion, she is the only genuine heiress of Maria Callas."
243360,2,Wonderful Bed!,"I don't have a guest room, so this becomes my instant pop-up guest room! Works great, comfy (so I've been told by my guests), fast and easy to use. Wonderful purchase. Folds back up nicely and tucks away! I have 2 dogs, 2 kids and the guest brings a cat, so I will say it is durable as well since it was used constantly over Christmas with no issues :)"
243368,2,Better than expected,"This was the most comfortable air mattress I've ever been on. It is large enough for my boyfriend and I to fit on comfortably, and it is remarkably sturdy. The pump works well, inflating it very quickly and being fairly intuitive to use. I am very glad to have purchased this product and I would recommend it to anyone who is thinking about buying one!"
243370,2,airbed,"I purchased the Intex queen airbed for company to sleep on during a summer visit.Everyone said they slept quite comfortabley during the time of their stay.We found the airbed easy to pump up, and I found the auto deflation feature to be invaluable.All in all I think i made a good decision to purchase the Intex airbed."
243376,2,Finally re-released,"Beautiful, ambient, rythmic and spacey. Along the lines of Tangerine Dream, but less intense. Fell in love with this album 20 years ago and have been looking to replace my LP with a CD but it's been out of print. FINALLY we get a re-release and it's only $9!! (makes me wish Edgar Froese would re-release his original Epsilon in Malaysian Pale, rather than having to consider rare out-of-print copies for $100+ ). Thank you, Reed."
243394,2,Fun at Halloween,You can not get any weirder than Ed Wood. These movies are so bad they are good. Make sense? It is hard not to wonder how he thought he was creating real works of art.
243444,2,Garden Weasel Digs Through the Garden,I love the garden weasel. I don't have to kneel down to turn over my garden before planting. I also use it after the plants are growing to loosen the weeds and easily pick them out.
243461,2,Goodness in retrospect,"Looking back this album came out during the heyday of southern rock. It fit the bill very well sliding right in with Lynyrd Skynrd, Molly Hatchet and the rest. ""Lonesome Boy From Dixie"" is a very good poster child song of the era. It's a good song but also describes the times. ""In America"" was written in response to President Carter's ineptitude but it is still a good song. ""Legend Of Wooley Swamp"" is the hit on this album and it's good and worth th price if you're wondering."
243563,2,Let There Be Light (Mail Order Bride),I enjoyed the book and received excellant service from Amazon.Received the book sooner than I expected.
243569,2,A shirt pocket must for birders in East Africa.,"This book is authoritative, small, inexpensive, and beautifully illustrated with photos taken by the author. Dave Richards is a superb photographer, and he has chosen those photos which best depict salient features of the birds. Not infrequently, he has more than one picture per species (females, flight, etc.), and he covers 265 species that you are likely to see. Each species description includes color photo(s), a distribution map, and a thumbnail sketch which is not a 'canned' presentation and is a delight to read."
243570,2,Great buy - great service,"Usually stuff from the States takes forever to get here, this time it went fine. Great CD. Seller = great service and lots of good products."
243631,2,Great product,I have a lumpy bumpy lawn and this mower does a great job. I love the fact that I don't have to buy GAS! This also provides a great workout!
243745,2,Simply So-Far the Best DJ Mix in 2002,This talented Dutchman gives people the surprise only a limited number of DJ's are capable of. Try it if you are wondering who can compare Deep Dish. So bad I miss his Chicago debut.
243819,2,Great for our deck,We needed a barrier to keep our 17 month old toddler from leaving our deck area. The exit area is just about 5 feet wide and most gates wont fit. In addition the area is uncovered and exposed to the elements so a wood or metal gate would not have worked. The telescoping design and heavy plastic construction are exactly what we needed. It frustrates our toddler to be trapped but I feel good knowing I can take my attention away for a moment without worrying she'll get into the yard unsupervised.
243947,2,Madcap live concert by all-star gypsy band,"Perhaps you're like me -- when it comes to gypsy music, you can pretty much take it or leave it. However, this is an interesting live album, because of the band's fluidity and playfulness, as well as its lightning-quick timing and tight arrangements. A carnival atmosphere prevails, as they zip through a remarkable mix of styles -- Arabic, Mediterranean, Slavic and Jewish music collide in a high-speed multi-culti chase. After a while this wore me down the way all gypsy records seem to, but for a while I was pretty entertained. Worth checking out."
243996,2,Takes your breath away!,"This is a series of breathtaking photos of the Andes range from the Caribbean to Patagonia. There are stunning photos of the mountains and heart-wrenching photos of earthquake survivors as well as many photos of everyday life. Mario Vargas Llosa, the famous Peruvian author, contributes ""inventions"" imagining subjects thoughts, feelings, attitudes and stories. This National Geographic book, photographed by Pablo Corral Vega, makes a wonderful tour of the majestic mountains and haunting coutryside of the Andes."
244020,2,The hummingbirds love this thing!,"This is the second Perky-Pet hummingbird feeder I've owned. The first was a great success, drew hummingbirds like a magnet, but I broke it this spring. I couldn't find a replacement locally so I purchased instead a plastic feeder with fake flowers protruding from it. It was a little tacky, but didn't think the hummingbirds would mind. I was wrong. Almost overnight they disappeared completely. We had a cold, wet spring and I began to wonder if there had been a die-off of some kind.I found a replacement Perky-Pet feeder here on Amazon and ordered it. The result: Within 48 hours my feeder was hopping again. The hummingbirds around here give this feeder a big thumbs up, and so do I."
244075,2,Great Book!,This was a great book. I finished it in 1 day. I thought it was the best reasearch guide you have ever written. (Steven)
244148,2,Couldn't put it down (unless I was tired),"I thought the book was really good. I liked Blackie the dog, because he always stole cupcakes and cakes! I always like a book with a happy ending like this one."
244198,2,so cute!,"This purse is just perfect. It can go kind of dressy and casual too, plus it has so many different colors in it that it goes w/ just about anything. It's also the perfect size. I can fit all my essentials and still have a little room, but it's not big or bulky."
244243,2,Amazing,Wow.... this CD is amazing! I only have the record but it is really good. Meat didnt need Jim Stienman. Razor's Edge starts the album off slow. But Midnight At The Lost And Found reminds me of Bat Out of Hell and just makes this album gold!
244244,2,Another good season,"The second season of Full House is excellent. The men are more developed now and we can settle in and watch the children grow up. Jessie's hair has been cut short and he's tackling his music career.Still cheesy, but that's okay. Sometimes we need a dose of what life could be like in our make-believe worlds. We meet the Beach Boys for the first time in Full House as they begin singing (They are seen in other episodes throughout the series run).This is just an overall good show!"
244324,2,Combat ! Season 5 Invasion 1,"Finally Combat ! in Color Great packaging , easy access of episodes , interviews & show insights a plus . A must have for any Combat ! Fan."
244353,2,Johnny Mathis Live review,"There are so many great tracks on this CD, but if only for ""A Certain Smile"", you should buy it...this track alone is worth it."
244384,2,Wonderful Translation...,"but the bonded leather edition of the thinline version is of a ""Oh, come on Crossway!"" type quality. It seems nothing more than an plastic type of rubber. The genuine leather binding is good. And I've recently purchased the large print version. One online Christian book seller states that the ESV large print bible is their most popular bible in sales.Don't miss this translation!"
244393,2,enjoyed this thriller,"In reading ""The Night Gardener"" I thought it would be a murder mystery or thriller, but instead it is about the human condition. To begin, a murdered child is found in a garden twenty years ago and three cops are there. Jump to now, and a similar murder has taken place, which opens wounds for the three. Their lives are changed, yet they are still haunted. We come to learn about who these men are, what made them and how they get through their own lives. George Pelecanos has written an intense story of what is like to live and survive in and on the streets of Washington D.C."
244455,2,I Found A Turnip The Other Day...,"Ok so that was there just to grab your attention.I can completly see where some reviewers are coming from in disliking this. It does sound a 'forced' epic by Rick's hand but I find it great none-the-less. It is very epic and... I fear to say... almost sounds like Christian Rock in places. All the same, I think this is worth getting if you're a Wakeman fan, but if you have a long list of 'to gets,' put this near the bottom. It is poorer than the original granted, but to me it is a very exceptable sequal. Give it a few listens and see what you think..."
244458,2,Pretty Good Solitaire Pretty Good!,"Games are clean, clear, large enough to see comfortably without strain and no advertising. Would recommend this to any card game enthusiast or beginner."
244523,2,Speak,"The book Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson was a touching story about a troubled teenage girl. Melinda had a horrible experience in her past and as a result ended up with no friends; everyone that she didn't know also hated her. She went into high school with a bad reputation. Throughout the year she suffered emotionally because of this. Melinda learned that her life could be improved if she tried harder. There was little to no communication between Melinda and her parents or anybody. In the beginning of the story Melinda was very depressed; she cut school, didn't do her homework,failed classes, and moped around her room. Slowly she began to recover from her hurtful past.I read this book because I heard it was a great story. I would reccomend this story to any young teenage girl."
244628,2,Great heater at super price.,Got this one for my garage and mounted it to the wall. Easy install with all the parts to do so plus good instructions. Puts out lots of heat. Does need someway to move the heated air around so I just mounted a fan above it and now it really heats the place fast.
244709,2,Black Lucas,"First you have to get used to Lucas Davenport, the quintessential Mid-American, being played by a Black man. In fact 3 Black actors have key roles. Lucas's Old Girlfriend (Can only think of her nickname which would probably not get past the censors) is black. She gets killed in this movie. Pretty sure she is still alive in the print series. Thought the actor playing John Mail, Nailed the role. Also the victims , the victim's family and assocuates were all quite good. See this with an open mind, and I think that you will enjoy it as I did."
244836,2,Excellent! same style & quality of the original radio drama,"These CDs were absolutely wonderful. for those of you who have listened to the original Star Wars radio drama and wished you could have more star wars stories in the same fashion. HERE IT IS! . for those of you new to the star wars universe....or have not heard the original radio drama, this is a full cast audio production with sound effects. This is well written and acted. the story is excellent. a must have for any star wars fan. great for tips on the road in the car."
244848,2,A true classic for Kaufman fans,"If you are prepared for a low-budget, high nonsense movie, you'll love My Breakfast with Blassie. The movie seems either very spontaneous or highly disorganized. Whatever the case is, it is a slow starter. Those who are not intrigued with Kaufman may get a little restless, but those who are patient will really enjoy this little bit that has been put together. I laughed my tail off, and my girlfriend (who is not a huge Kaufman fan) found it humorous."
244938,2,"Agree with Harry Kruz-Make 3x8, 4x8, or even 6x6 sizes!","I am neutral on the rating; I don't have this product, but I have to chime in with Harry Kruz... If the manufacturer is listening-there's a HUGE market for bigger sizes and more color choices. Many exercises require more than one plane of motion, even on the floor; and stretching, abs, and many other workouts would benefit from a 3x8, 4x8, and even 6x6 and 8x8 mat for partner exercises. All this should be available in various thicknesses. I'm a fitness professional, and my clients have a wide range of needs in this area. I'd like to be able to better meet those needs. Let's take it into the new century!"
244950,2,A MUST FOR GUITAR LOVERS,"John Petrucci stands tall in the pantheon of guitar masters of this planet. I first got acquainted with his work by being introduced to Dream Theater, back in late 2006. I simply got hooked to his style (and to DT, for that matter !!!). No other guitar player I know has the ability to combine power with subtlety, aggression with passion, fury with serenity in the way JP has been able to do. It's no surprise he has been a regular in the G3 circus. One of my best acquisitions this year. Highly recommended !!!"
244980,2,Works great for thinning or thin hair!,"I use the shampoo, so thought I'd try the spray. I work just a little of the spray through my hair before blow drying. It adds a lot of body, making my naturally thin, baby-fine hair appear to have twice the volume.Once my hair is styled, I again lightly spray, which does a great job of keeping it in place without making my hair stiff. Please note the word LIGHTLY.I notice less breakage, and less hair loss to boot. I also like the fact that both the shampoo and hair spray are natural. In short, I plan on being a steady customer, and would recommend the shampoo and spray to anyone."
245048,2,"Works fine, but....",Does what I bought it for but I wished I'd looked around at my local big box store where remnants cost about the same and I was able to pick the color of my choice. Oh well.
245114,2,Classic BFS,If you like Bowling For Soup's previous CDs you'll like this one. Witty lyrics and a pop-punk beat make up the newest addition to the BFS world. And if you get this CD just for the lyric insert it will be worth it ;-)
245116,2,THE BLACK SHIELD OF FALWORTH,WONDERFUL!..ACTION PACKED AND TONY CURTIS WAS A DYNAMO!! A MOVIE FOR THE AGE WHERE CHIVALRY AND GALLANTRY WERE ALIVE AND WELL...I WILL DEFINITELY WATCH IT AGAIN AND AGAIN!!!
245158,2,Trance in Saigon,"I heard Johan's Revelations and was very impressed with his style of sound. The music in this album surpasses Revelations; it is upbeat, deep and extremely captivating. His track selection is also superb. This CD takes off with Sex on the beach and never lands"
245200,2,Love at first sight.,"This song isn't one of the strongest songs from the Fever album.I would have liked to see Burning up released instead of this song.The best reason to buy this cd single is for the ""Can't get blue monday out of my head"" mix. It is fantastic."
245232,2,Happy w purchase,"Bought this summer and used all season. Depending on what you hang, you may want to purchase a line rodto hold up heavier things like rugs. Easy to install."
245317,2,Two Wonderful Years,"By far this is the greatest heater I have used thus far. The one I had (which died a week ago) stayed in my bathroom most of the time and kept my son and I extremely warm. When left on overnight in a closed room sleeping, we would wake up sweating.Being in a bathroom and having a 5 year old, it had water sprayed on it, it had been peed on (gross I know) and so much more but it still lasted 2 winters! I will be purchasing another one and now that my son is older I have no doubt that this new one will last at least 5 years."
245347,2,Great little desk!,"If you have a small space, this is a great little desk. It is simple to put together. Once together it is a sturdy desk. For the money it can't be beat! P.S. Amazon had it to me in two days which was a bonus."
245375,2,The are amazing!,"Now, i LOVE this cd. but lets be honest. Every song after track 6 are not really that great. i mean 33 is terrible. But the first 6 songs up to Delirium Trigger are some of the best songs I have ever heard. I think they need to brush up those last few though! ive seen em twice and met the band and they are totally cool as hell, i just wish the cd was a little better at the end."
245388,2,Promise Ring have changed...but it's still a good thing.,"At first this record kind of bummed me out. It's a lot mellower than past releases and at first listen felt monotonous, almost tedious to me. After repeated listens however, Wood/Water turns out to be much richer than it first appears. A ""complete"" album that needs to be listened to as a piece from start to finish a few times before you realize how good it really is. It feels at times like they step into Sparklehorse territory but at the same time they keep their sound their own. Again, it's an album that takes a while to hit you, but once it does it keeps getting better...the way that all good albums work."
245532,2,A Typical High Quality Sony Product,"I've just set this recorder up. The instructions are easy to follow, and everything went as it should.The recordings are every bit as good as those on my older Hitachi recorders that have, and are still, serving me well.I find nothing that I don't like about this new unit. After a very unsatisfactory experience I had recently with a Samsung DVD recorder I just bought, this is a pleasant surprise.The DVD recorders (and players) are too slow and clumsy to use in comparison to with the VCR units, and as long as the latter are available, I'll stay with that format."
245570,2,"Yay, it works","Its a paperclip, yay, it works as described. But I find Costco to be a bit more competitive in pricing (online)."
245634,2,Worth Every Penny,"I know some of you may be thinking, what, $55 for a grill cover? I can buy ten grill covers down at the Home Supply Store for that price!I'm watching 55mph gusts blow around my back deck right now and the grill cover stays perfectly put. This storm has blown my plants over and blown away the cheap-o tarp I've tied around my external air conditioner housing. The wind has even moved my weber grill a few inches on my patio, but the cover stays in place!It fits great, looks sharp, and comes off and on quickly courtesy of the velcro straps at the bottom. It even has a few ""vents"" sewn into it to prevent too much moisture - and mold - from building up inside of it."
245644,2,I love this book!,"As the mother of a 3-year old adopted from China, I've bought quite a few adoption-related children's books, and I like many of them. But this one I love! Although it's not directly tied to Chinese adoptions, the story is similar to ours (we're a 2-parent family; we adopted a baby; we traveled to get her). The illustrations are lovely and the story captures the happy anticipation we felt as we waited for our child. Most importantly, the author gave me words to use in explaining my daughter's birth to her: ""You grew like a flower in another lady's tummy until you were born. The lady couldn't take care of you so Mommy and Daddy came to adopt you and bring you home."" I just love those 2 sentences and feel grateful to have them. And my daughter asks me to read this book just about every day!"
245656,2,Celtic classic Hymns - in modern way,"Oh my, how often I listen to this. This has a celebratory and devout feel; Majestic and tender. Classic hymns done in a Celtic manner with great rhythm, booming sound, and pure voices, it is a wonderfully tightly integrated, cohesively joyful sound unto our Lord. Love it."
245660,2,"A little tight, good quality",Quality heavy duty material with corner straps to slip around corners but somewhat tight. Have to stretch it tight to get it on.
245704,2,The third wave,"Naomi Wolf does an expert job defining her point of view of what is going on during the third wave of feminism. This is a good book to contrast the other historical feminist periods. However, the reader needs to keep an open mind about her point of view.Good reference book to own."
245708,2,Easy set mouse trap,"The mouse traps were fairly easy to assemble once I got the hang of it. I expected to hear a snap or click when the needle was in place but there is no sound, it just stays in place. I put a small dap of peanut butter on top of the fake cheese and set them near the baseboards in the kitchen at night before bed and sure enough around 2 am we had successfully caught a mouse. The traps are effective. I guess they can be reused but I found it easier to just dispose of the entire thing."
245776,2,Enhanced children's songs,I purchased the lp version of this compact disk when it originally came out. The compact disk has additional cuts written after the original release. It is a wonderful addition to anyone's compact disk collection.
245793,2,Oh those 'bama boys,I was thrilled to add this 41 Number One Hits cd to my collection. Great sounds and harmonys as always!
245950,2,Amazing. Love it. Buy one now..,"Love the Kindle and love the freedom it has given me to buy all my favourite authors as and when they come out in hardback. Thing is for me, I hate hardbacks and usually waited until they came out in paperback.. Wait no more and if I like them, their in the collection when they come out in paperback..Call me strange but it works for me and it's a great device to read from."
245977,2,dinle reader,"throughly enjoy the experience. It takes some gettin used to, not having a book or paper in hand, but I'm sure housewives in the '20's and 30's missed having the milkman, iceman, and coalman stopping by as well."
245982,2,Good product,"Good product, it does need a few things to be up to date. But I really enjoy using it for my every day reading. It it so convenient!"
245990,2,tfciii,"To make my review meaningful, I am at a disadvantage because I did not own a Kindle 1 before I bought the Kindle 2. Having read many Kindle 2 reviews of customers who owned the earlier model I knew of many of their negative comments.I love my Kindle 2. I find it works great even reading in bright sunlight, but it is not so good reading in limited light. Among the negative comments from those who previously owned a Kindle 1 was that Amazon advertised that no book would cost more than $9.99. Obviously, many books do cost more than that. As to what Amazon previously advertised, I don't know.It is a great way to spend time reading from a list of reading material I choose, especially when I am on the road."
245994,2,AMAZING!!!,"I love my Kindle sooooooooooooo much! It was probley one of the best gifts I have ever recieved! I have no complaints besides a few books I would like to read are not on it, but I sent a thing to the publisher to request that I would like to read it on my Kindle! Otherwise 2 thumbs up Amazon! I read more now then I ever have!!!!!!!"
246004,2,Awesome,purchased this for my husband for christmas! He loves it! easy to download books. Will be exellent to have for flying alot. No more bulkie books to carry!!
246049,2,Best money I ever invested!,I didn't figured I would have liked this as much as I have. I love love love the kindle.
246146,2,Superb Reading Device,"I have owned my Kindle for about 8 months and I absolutely LOVE it. The only complaint I have is that the Kindle library only contains about 90% of my favorite books, but I believe that one day they will all be available."
246173,2,Faith and Science Can Be Compatible,"This video has beautiful photography, and the contributors seem to be knowledgable in their fields of science. Even if one doubts the creation of Earth and its inhabitants, both plant and animal, by God; the fact that scientists feel the universe's intricacy will never be explained by just a ""big bang theory"" is compelling. It certainly makes one respectful of the religious point of view."
246193,2,A favorite in our family!,These cashew snacks have a special flavor that we have not found in any other product. We keep coming back for more because they taste so good and are good for you too!
246203,2,relaxing,"A good selection of relaxing but up-beat toons. As you listen to the music, time almost stands still until you realized about a hour just flew by and your grabing for the controls to listen to the CD again."
246226,2,Awesome!,Season three was awesome. This show is well written and the actors are amazing. This show is a must see!
246234,2,Great introduction to most major data access techniques,"This book covers most of the basic techniques an ASP.NET data access application would utilize. There are a few more advanced techniques, but if you are at that level this book may be a bit simple for you. I especially like the way the authors take a basic example and keep expanding on it with new techniques. This learning pattern mirrors the way a lot of developers learn.I wish I would have had access to a book like this in the spring of 2001 as I had to learn a lot of this stuff by trial and error. If you are just getting started, this book will save you a lot of time in getting up to speed. Plus it is nice that all examples are given in both VB.NET and C#, especially at this stage in the adoption of the .NET platform where developers are still trying to determine which language to learn."
246235,2,PERFECT!,"High quiality ,glamourous All around champion . Surprise someone you know with a new designer phone! And a lot smaller than you thought it would be!!?? Yeah, right"
246245,2,A gold mine of info for hamingway aficionados long overdue,"Charles M. Oliver. Ernest Hemingway A to Z: The Essential Reference to His Life and Work.Facts on File. Jun. 1999. c.411p. illus. index. ISBN 0-8160-3467-2. $50. LITAll things Hemingway here are dissected and rearranged alphabetically, from that magic elixir ""absinthe"" to bullfighter ""Zurito""-2500 cross-referenced entries in all, although oddly the phrase ""the true gen"" is absent. The book also includes several top-notch appendixes of maps, a Hemingway family tree, a chronology and dateline, a bibliography, a complete list of his writings with publication history, and an index. An absolute gold mine for Hemingway aficionados that is long overdue.--Michael Rogers, ""Library Journal"""
246355,2,November,Do you ever have those moments that are so beautiful all you can do is cry? It's just like that. Just like.
246358,2,Not the best they've done...but pretty damn good,Don't agree with the other review - this is expermiental and sparse - you've never heard anything like it. They didn't find their voice until Concerto. Get this though - you won't regret it.
246362,2,Fine Irish comedy,"The inhabitants of a small Irish town conspire to claim a dead man's lottery winnings. Although I did enjoy this film quite a bit--largely due to the performances of Ian Bannen and David Kelly--it sometimes seemed too self-conscious, as if the fillmakers were very aware that quaint Irish charm was going to be a selling point of this film./"
246369,2,"Love them, just wish they would fold for carrying","I ordered these for my SanDisc because the reviews were better than for the foldable version, and they ARE marvelous. The volume control on the cord is nice since I don't have to fiddle with the MP3 controls when I already have it on my belt. The downside is I want to carry the MP3 back and forth to work so that I have it there and at home, but carrying the headphones is a pain since they're so large. The MP3 fits in a pocket of my purse, but the headphones require that I carry a separate canvas bag which is a hassle. I'll probably break down and buy a second pair so I have one at work and one at home."
246423,2,Excellent - Each essay is thought provoking and well-written,"If you are a die-hard TP fan, then you should grab a copy of this book. Most of the essays are quite academic in nature, but that fact doesn't diminish their readability. You may not agree with every analyzation from each author, but if you loved the show, you'll gladly welcome the fresh insights."
246490,2,Traumatic Brain Injuries - A Survivor's Story,"Claudia Osborn writes a compelling story about her head injury.Traumatic brain injury is the leading cause of death and disability worldwide. This story provides insight into the challenges a brain injury survivor faces in their new life. Claudia's story is an inspiration to other survivors like myself. We survivors need to find and use as many 'brain strategies' as possible. Thank you Claudia, for inspiring me to tell my story.Check out my story atSecond Life Second Chance[...]Namaste,Anthony Aquan-Assee"
246509,2,Fiction for the Thinking Christian,"Most of the action in this novel occurs in a healing center, where two priests, a physician, social worker, counselor and several volunteers work. This is an unusual and intriguing setting.Howatch, through the crises of the various characters, is able to portray the connection between body and soul and explores the deeper meaning of healing. Healing is almost always a process.I think that the average middle-aged person can relate to at least a couple of the struggles of these characters. So reading this book is therapeutic as well if you use it as a tool for self-examination.Howatch explores the psychological dimension of these crises in addition to the spiritual. Sometimes the psychobabble gets tiring but overall I appreciated this perspective. It's good to think beyond the usual Christian terminology.If you enjoyed the Starbridge Series this book should not be a disappointment."
246532,2,Good historical value,"There is a lot of history here for pete lovers. Very interesting. Certain scenes are probably not suitable for children, but give us an idea of things in days gone by. Contains 4 shorts. Dog heaven, included with these, is a short filmed from Pete's perspective."
246565,2,Another Dallas Willard book for bible study,"Ditto everything said re ""The Great Omission"" by Willard. This is the first one my husband read (borrowed) from our pastor. Awesome. Highly recommended reading for the serious bible scholar."
246619,2,fiction based on non-fiction event,"excellent writing style, this fiction classic based on non-fiction events in the mid-west explores non-traditional relationships while exposing true-life adventures.wonderful backup of Horse Whisperer. I love it because is soo true-blue."
246628,2,BEST EVER HAIR SPRAY,"I was delighted to find this through Amazon, as I am unable to find it in stores any longer. I don't want to admit how long I have been using Adorn, but it has been for a long, long time! Nice hold, and I am very pleased with the unscented aspect of the product, as I have numerous allergies. If you are put off by the odor of so many of the ""Name"" brand hairsprays, try this. Also, it aids in styling but does not leave the hard shell film on the hair as so many products do. I really hate it when I go to a nice salon and get sprayed to a hard finish. I have come to take my Adorn with me. It truly does hold, but move. Don't quit making this product while I am still around!"
246660,2,Great way to Move to new beginings,This is a must have. The only problem I had was that the loss of one of the main characters was unnecessary. It didn't add to the story line and in fact was a distraction. Somehow that character should be brought back.Also... when is Luke going to find out that R2 and C3PO belonged to his parents? That's a loop that should also be closed.
246745,2,A page turner,This book was a departure from the books I would normally buy. I am glad I took that detour. The book was hard to put down in that the story line and plot were extremely well developed and the book was very thought provoking.
246774,2,Excellent Regency Mystery,"From the very first page, I was hooked. I love Tracy Grant's writing style and had a hard time putting the book down. Unlike some of the negative comments, I did not find that I had a hard time believing the plot, the characters, or the legend around the fictional ring in the story. I can't wait to read this author's other books and highly recommend her."
246786,2,Awesome conga,"This is a similar review for the 11"" Quinto head but it applies here too:I originally purchased the Remo Skyndeep Conga head for my Quinto but I did not like the high pitched overtones. Even though it was my first foray into synthetic heads, I decided to give this one a shot. I'm glad I did!Firstly, It was snug getting it onto the rim of my Comfort Curve II LP Classic, so before buying I highly recommend checking on Remo's website to confirm that the head will fit with your drum.The tuning was easy and quick, the heads seem to naturally rest right in tune without any drop in tuning! Which is amazing!Onto the most important part, the sound.. I love the sound of these heads!!! Its warm, full bodied, projects well and has a very very close sound to natural heads. Furthermore, they feel soft on your hands, not rough like the cow hide skins I had on previously. This means, you can play longer and more comfortably!"
246801,2,Poetry alive & breathing,"The companion book to Moyers' PBS series ""The Power of the Word"" and ""The Language of Life,"" which brought to a national audience the vigorous living poetry of a number of contemporary poets from the U.S. and abroad. Poetry is not the dead old thing critics like Harold Bloom and Helen Vendler would have us believe it is: this series, and this book, puts it into the ears and mouths of the people, to our betterment."
246802,2,A nearly-complete guide to Jewish weddings.,"This is an excellent all-around reference book. It covers both ritual and secular aspects of Jewish weddings without presupposing any knowledge of Jewish practices. It answered nearly all my questions in plain language. It is probably not thorough enough for Orthodox Jews, and it does not really address interfaith weddings (there are other relevant books). It is definitely worth the price. However, I am still looking for the wedding book that tells you when to sign the civil marriage license!"
246833,2,Great Facial Tissue,"This is a great tissue. This 3-ply tissue holds up much better than other tissues I've used. With my allergies, I've used many different products over the years, this Kleenex product is far superior. With the lotion, it feels really good on my skin and not leaving me with ""red nose"".My only minor complaint is that when the box is nearly empty, the next tissue doesn't always pop up so you have to dig in the box to get at the next tissue. When these is less than 1/2 inch of tissues left in the box, I usually just take them all out and use them up that way."
246857,2,Wonderful story!,"This book has it all....Adventure, romance, plot twists, intrigue. You will fall in love with Hawkeye (again!) and Nathaniel. I would recommend this book to anyone!"
246938,2,Absolute must for instructional designers,"I do love this book. I constantly refer to it. I honestly can't imagine the world without Peter Senge's work. This book is very accessible. The format of the content is an excellent example of good instructional design. It is incredibly user-friendly. If you are involved in education, business, corporate training or anything remotely related and wonder how you can make a difference, read and use this book."
247021,2,Wonderful Wipes,"We purchased these wipes back in 2007, when my daughter was born. We have used them daily since then, washing them with cloth diapers, and drying them in the dryer. They have just started falling apart and unraveling. I don't think we could reasonable expect something to last longer, with daily use and hard washing. I am quite pleased and am now purchasing more. We use them with water only, and they get the job done. Save tons of money and avoid unnecessary chemicals with these wipes!"
247103,2,Extremely creative,"An extremely well-written, thoughtful novel with fascinating characters. The novel is very well-paced and hard to put down. The breadth of imagination is staggering. The ending could be described as unsatisfying, but I thought it was reasonable (especially if this is really going to be a 3-part series)."
247214,2,Lots of fun,"I really enjoyed this book. Not only was the author's voice sharp and witty, but she took a shot at answering the question so many women ask themselves: what if? Who hasn't wondered what would happen if they could get back the one that got away - and the fact that the main character is already married makes it all the more fun. I especially liked that the ending didn't take the easy way out, but instead forced the character to come to terms with her actions. This book was lots of fun to read, and I highly recommned it."
247234,2,Difficult Conversations (book),"This is a very good book for everyone who is ever in a conversation! Pretty deep at times, but understandable. Anyone can benefit from reading this."
247284,2,Revenge is bouty bouty + roudy roudy!!!!!!!,"More wrestlers than world tour. Signiture moves and taunts make this game superrior to any other.NWOlfpac , NWO hollywood, and wcw will keep you playing for hours."
247306,2,HATERS BACK THE F@#K OFF. THALIA ROCKS,"First of all STOP comparing Thalia to nasty ass Jennifer Lopez, sound be the same, But remember peps its Thalia first english debut. Her voice is just fine shes using it well, Lots of people make hit records and cannot sing, Thalia is representing A TRUE STRONG MEXICAN WOWEN WITH SAZZ. And its about time we have a mexican out there doin it along Paulina Rubio. I have seen enough of Puerto Rican acts doing there thing let mexicos best show it also. This is a good cd, she sound way better that jennifer lopezs trash and is HOTTER> thanks"
247365,2,Review,"I Like ThisGame-It's alot of fun for all ages, but I would recomend the game catch phrase, which is a little more easyand fun :)<!"
247373,2,Great product,"I bought this card because I always shoot on raw and I was heading to a big trip in the south of Mexico. The CF Card worked great and I had an extra 4gb CF card, so I always had more than enough memory for my daily clicking. I strongly recommend this product."
247418,2,I found this book to be very diversified to the black race.,This novel was a very good passtime enjoyment. It helped me to picture different lifestyles within the black community. It also let me identify with some of my own needs and insights concerning different beliefs and attitudes in my race.
247439,2,Perfect Airplane Read...,"I picked this book up for a recent flight to Los Angeles and I LOVED IT! Could not put it down. Ms. Briggs is realistically drawn, and as a young single woman, I definitely connected with her story... funny, realistic, moving and beautifully written.I could definitely see it as a movie -- but which lucky ingenue will get to play the heroine? Too bad Audrey Hepburn is no longer with us.I am giving copies to all my friends..."
247445,2,Mesmerizing and Atmospheric,"Magnificent. There should be more than five stars available for a book as well done as this.I am amazed that anyone could read CROWN IN CANDLELIGHT and not give it the five stars available. The characters spring to life, fully realized, and with very different voices, and the writing is mesmerizing and atmospheric. Plus, unlike so much other modern writing in the field, it is historically accurate.The love scenes are romantic and an object lesson in how such scenes should be written, instead of the embarrassing overly clinical crud of ""what goes where"" that has me fast forwarding through so much modern historical fiction.I cannot imagine any other author bothering to try to write about Katherine d' Valois and Owen Tudor. It has been done, and done magnificently, by Jarman."
247459,2,Two Wonderfully Mesmerizing Novellas,William Trevor has once again cast his storytelling spell. These two novellas are absolutely captivating. I read this book in one sitting and upon finishing turned back to page one and began again. The man can write---what genius. Bravo.
247547,2,Exactly what I was looking for,"My dogs had been scratching and biting, particularly after bathing. My veterinarian recommended fish oil/vitamin e. I ordered this product, and after using it for a few weeks it has worked wonderfully. Price was competitive and shipping was fast."
247579,2,It works!,I've been taking this daily for several years at my doctor's suggestion. No more acid reflux and the pain associated with it! I use Amazon's Subscribe and Save and get Prilosec for a great price + no shipping charges.
247662,2,Fun 1st board game for your little ones.,Easy to understand for your young children. Perfect for both boys and girls. Helps with counting and interactive skills.
247819,2,Master Lock 175DHL 2 in,"They work just like a lock should, I have 7 of these locks and have used them for several years. They hold up well to outside use without rusting up, I do oil them once a year just to make sure. It is nice not having to carry keys for everything that you want to lock. It is easy to change the combination."
247837,2,good work,"tight album. G-Dep definately got superb skills on da mic.best tracks: Everyday (this is da gutta)Child Of The Ghetto (hyped up track)Keep It Gangsta ...Danger Zone (bangin, bangin, bangin)I Want The World To See (excellently sampled ballad)It's All Over (tight ballad #2)Nothing's Gonna Stop Me (tight ballad #3)worst tracks:Special Delivery (what is this [stuff], superwack beats)Doe Fiend (absolutely useless remake)U won't regret buying this album, go get it!"
247859,2,great watch for the price,"only have had this watch a month so i cannot speak to longevity. otherwise, the watch is best for medium to small size wrists, not heavy feeling. the watch is versatile in style and easy to read the time in light only. the links are removable w/ small screwdriver, but one side of the screws are very tiny and sometimes frustrating to remove."
247943,2,great DVD,"if you are a true rush fan,you will love it.I have no trouble with the sound.I have it runing through my stereo,and it sounds fine.the sound is not the greatest just runing through the tv.but if you are a true fan I think you will be pleased"
248027,2,Sweeeeeet!,"I really enjoy most of the songs on the CD. I pretty much listen only to Chef songs and, of course, Cartman. Although I do find myself putting ""Love Gravy"" on repeat. Hit me again Ike! and this time put some STANK on it! I'd really love to hear a Chef-only CD - Issac Hayes is my new musical hero."
248078,2,"Good product,","We purchased one of these for our church 3 years ago and I now need to replace it. It was used approximately 40 times throughout the years and stood up well to the task of serving 40-50 ice cream cones a night. However if the ice cream is too hard, it did not work very well. For ice cream frozen a a reasonal temp, it was wonderful. Too much hoter and the ice cream would have melted.For serving a large group it is able to keep up, dipping a scoop in water, for a large group would not have worked nearly as well. It takes a few minutes to get up to temp, but overall it has made things easier for our group. I was hoping that it would last longer, but I will be purchasing another."
248199,2,Excellent Book for Beginners,"I ordered this book for a jacket pattern and was pleasantly surprised at the rest of the content of the book. As a beginning knitter, it's easy to become overwhelmed by the language of knitting. Sally Melville's book is a great resource to me every day that I knit. The illustrations and instructions are clear and the patterns have lots of diagrams to help. One of the best features (besides the basic instructions - which I need) is the layout of each pattern - she details the skill level, the fit, scale, yarn details and equipment in a quick reference format that has proved extremely clear and easy to use. I've used other beginning knitter books and this one is by far my favorite. I will eventually give away my other beginning-to-knit books, but this one I will keep."
248248,2,Very Very Funny,"This is one of the funniest videos in the Lucy Desi Comedy Hour series. After seeing the episode on Nick at Night, I had to buy it. Anyone who loves The Lucy Desi Comedy Hour and I Love Lucy will love this!"
248271,2,Excellent book,I liked this book so much after only the first four lessons that I bought and downloaded an audio version to put on my Ipod.
248277,2,Haunting,"I picked up this book because I wanted to reinforce the fact that I don't have it that bad as compared to others. I gained so much from reading this book, but also once again realized how cruel us humans can be. I will never be able to understand the inner strength & unbounding faith Mrs. Klein possesses. Please read this book so that some periods in our history are not repeated!"
248293,2,WOW Keyboard,I love this keyboard. It make everything so simple and saves a little time when you are chatting. It takes a little while to get used to but I highly recommend it.
248301,2,"excellent, very good locking watch","Very nice watch, very beuatifull and extremely good locking, really an eye catcher, but this watch is a quartz chronograph watch and it's don't cont tenth of seconds, and the second hand don't walk exactly over the little second mark lines. After all at this price it's very recommended product."
248340,2,Great for Small Dog or Puppies and kids too,"This is my 3rd Bissel SpotLifter and its seems that I get about 3 years battery life out of these. For our house, when the dog has an accident this is used for extraction and it does a great job.We have 2 Chihuahuas, and this can handle anything these 2 lil gals can dish out. We even take extra cleaning solution with another cup or two of water for a rinse, and this vac handles it all. Durability is good and it is easy clean. I gave only 4 stars because I think the dirty water tank could come off a bit easier than it does, as the release knob seems a little small and I find it a bit awkward to push, but thats a minor issue for me."
248355,2,High Stakes,"High Stakes (Dick Francis) - A toy maker gets together with a financier, a chauffeur, a bookies offsider and a caterer to beat the bad guys in this Dick Francis classic. A strange combination of people pulled together by some wrongs dealt out to the toy maker and a bookmaker - revenge in this particular case is definitely worth the effort. Great read"
248380,2,Excellent tool to teach the instruments of the orchestra,"This book is a wonderful tool for teaching students the instruments of the orchestra. If you're using it to teach, you MUST buy the CD too. The CD is narrated by John Lithgow and has some wonderful musical interludes on it.The book can also be used as a tool to discuss behavior. Farkle does some pretty rotten things with his instruments. This gives you a good ""teaching moment"" with your students."
248398,2,Another good game...,I played the demo for this game and it was good. the main person in the game is Tidus (but you can name him any way you want). the battle system is cool. and when you sumon a monster instead for the sumon doing just 1 attack (like FF7) the sumon stays in the battle(the sumon does go away when it dies). but once again the cussing kept me from giving it a 5. the graphics are very good. the miny games (like Blitz ball) are fun but they can get fustrating. over all it's a fun game.
248420,2,Excellent Praise and Worship CD From 1993,"I purchased this CD years ago and was delighted to find it available again. I love all the songs especially ""When the Righteous Prosper"" ""Peace"" ""Instruments of Your Peace"" and ""Behold the Lamb"". I love the Drakensburg Boys Choir redition of ""Instruments of Your Peace"". The worship leader Lionel Peterson is great. The music is wonderful. This is probably one of my favorite Praise and Worship CDs. I'd recommend this to anyone who wants to praise the Lord. He surely is worthy of all our praise!"
248447,2,Very Good CD,"Anything with Hank Mobley, Cedar Walton, Lee Morgan, and Billy Higgins has to be a classic. Except for Boss Bossa, every tune is a standout."
248466,2,"8 in 1 Excel Time Release Senior Dog Multi-Vitamins Tabs, 100 Count...",They say when they make dog food they put everything in it that the dog would need but who knows.The vitamin could not hurt I guess and it seems like my pets move and look a little better and I've been giving it to them for years.
248473,2,First impression - looks like it'll be very helpful!,"I've always had a mystery novel floating around inside my head, so with my husband's encouragement, I thought I'd give it a whirl! Before I start, though, I want to make sure I really know what I'm doing, so I bought this book (no sense in getting a brand new copy if a used copy will do!). I've skimmed through it, and it looks just like what I was hoping for. With the holidays approaching faster than I'd like, I need to wait until the 'dead' of January to start! My first impression is that this book will definitely give me the guidelines I've wanted, and I know Ms. Grafton won't steer me wrong!"
248491,2,Great Movie Unless you're a book nerd or techno Geek,"This movie was much better than I expected. I would agree it maybe a scary for younger children. No matter how good a movie is somewhere someone hated it. I just get tired of people saying how its not exactly like the book or commenting on some technical aspect no one else knows or cares about. It keeps to the basic story, has great 3D effects, and is entertaining. Certainly worth the 18 bucks I spent on a used copy, which I highly recommend cause 3D movies are expensive. Just my opinion of course."
248555,2,When itruns it's great,The only problem I find with this game is the number of times the game disconnects you from the server. Other than that the game is great!
248582,2,Holmes vs. Ripper yarn,"Cool story. Well acted by good cast. Doyle fans will enjoy this treatment of the obvious ""missing"" story from the Holmes Canon.As a standard-length movie, the characters aren't quite as well developed as the much longer Michael Caine Ripper mini-series done by the Beeb, but it's well worth a look."
248725,2,Great Bag.,"I use this bag for my 13"" Macbook Pro. It fits in this bag like a glove, the bag looks decent, and holds all my stuff, including my school folders. Great overall bag for someone looking for a bag capable of handling multiple requirements."
248726,2,Excellent Slip Case,"This review is for the 17"" slip case.This is an excellent slip case. It fits my Dell E1705 well, and is small and light, with a comfortable shoulder strap. Its compactness can be a problem sometimes; it gets clunky when you fit an AC adapter and mouse into the side pocket. Also, the side pocket is held closed by a piece of velcro in the middle, and there aren't really any pockets inside, only a business card holder and a few spaces for pens, so there's no real safe place to put any small objects, IE bluetooth dongles, wireless mouse receivers. If you want a case to hold all that, you'll probably want to buy another case. If you just want a case to put your laptop in, maybe an extra battery or a power adapter, for a short trip to work on something where you won't be needing all your accessories, this case will be fine."
248727,2,"One of the Worst, but Funniest Ninja Movies EVER!","Ok, to start things off this movie is a definite 5 for those of you who are looking for bad movies that are funny in a camp sort of way. Everything about this movies is absurd, from the one white 'ninja' who is a ninja but hes slow and just shoots other ninjas with a gun, deep down there is something so wrong but so funny about shooting a ninja with a gun. And lets not forget the actual ninjas, like one scene where a bunch of them are rolling around on the ground slowly inching closer doing ninja-stunts only to be immediately 'dealt' with.Bottom line its side splitting humor that doesn't know when to stop, and didn't even know it started. And I really want to give away the ending because its so funny but I won't out of respect for the semi-plot that has been forced into this movie."
248794,2,Enchanting,I found this CD to be one of the best New Age sounds I have ever heard. The music is relaxing and useful in meditation. This is my first CD by Troika but because of it I am buying the rest of them.
248858,2,"World Anabolic Review ""ROCKS""","This book is excellent for anyone who wants to know more about, is thinking about, or is doing steroids. It will answer all your questions from side effects to what dosages to take. Very good book."
248873,2,The perfect tote!,"I bought this tote, actually bought 6 of them. For a women's conference at church and gave them to all my family that came. It was perfect! All 6 girls LOVED them. The size was perfect, and the strap stayed on our shoulders, and it's true to color. we were able to carry our personal items, plus our Bibles, note books, and a small sweater. Other women also stopped to ask where I got the totes! When I am ready for a few more totes I will be purchasing this one again. I now use it for grocery runs, or carrying the toddlers and baby's things to and from Mimi's house... AWESOME!"
248929,2,Merchant gone dreary,"A great effort of total misery. More use of th eviolin family, some banjo, saxophone- gives it a sometimes dullish, dark, sometimes twangy feel. The lyrics are the most eye catching as when I read them, they seem hard to compose into a song. The melodies don't usually grab you in this one. Maybe she should try some even faster songs? I do like how her solo effort has been much more poppier w/ electric guitars. It makes newer 10000 Maniacs seem a little bit too stuck to one mold."
248962,2,Terrific CD you should listen to it.,"I listen to this cd all the time it so good i especially like the first track on the cd, mariachi sol de mexico does such a good job I enjoy listening to cd."
248987,2,"Courage and Information for Life with COPD:The Handbook for Patients, Families and Care Givers Managing COPD,Emphysema,",I have lived with emphysema quite well for 14 years but had a serious setback recently. This book is helping me deal with the many issues that a diagnosis of 'very severe copd' brings to my life. Issues such as using oxygen most of the time and going out in public with an oxygen tank and a 'hose in my nose' plus practical ways to change your life adjusting to this disease are addressed in this book.I highly recommend it to those who have this disease and to those who care about us.
249112,2,LOVE THIS MACHINE!!!,"I have been researching carpet cleaners for awhile now and this one came up the best reviews... so I ordered it.. The day it came my husband put it together and started doing carpets... he couldn't believe it. We have 2 dogs and a cat.. and he said he vacuumed the carpet so good before shampooing with our Dyson..and this thing sucked enough dog and cat hair out of our carpet to build your own dog!! He never believed they shed so bad and now the proof was there.. We love this machine... I love having my own carpet cleaner... its easy to use.. its simple to operate.. I do wish, however, that it had something to tell you when the water is empty.. and maybe a little easier to get all apart to give it a thorough cleaning when you are finished.. but I won't complain cuz it did the most awesome job.. thank you BISSELL!!!!!"
249123,2,Can't get enough Lulu,My Kids love Lulu (they are 4 and 2). We have three of her books and they want them all. Not sure if it is the illustrations or the simple story... but they love it.
249135,2,Fun with electricity,I bought this about 6 months ago and it still entertains me. It sits on my desk and i probably mess around with is 3 times a day for about 10 mins. I really cant tell if it is made from plastic or glass and i don't wanna test it out. I was told don't touch it with wet hands and keep water really far away.
249207,2,"An ordinary man, extraordinary music.","This is a great collection of ""The Very Best Of Christopher Cross"". It's also pretty lengthy at 19 tracks. He hasn't been heard from much recently, but when you put this disc on, it'll take you right back to when he was all over the radio. Included are the hits ""Arthur's Theme (best that you can do)"", ""All Right"", ""Ride Like The Wind"", ""Think Of Laura"", and everyone's favorite ""Sailing"". All the lesser known songs are enjoyable too. Any fan of soft rock and 80's music should like this. His ""Greatest Hits Live"" is good also."
249273,2,Batteries,"These are batteries. How much can be said? They are ""AA"" and came in a 20-count pack, just as described. So far I haven't used them all, however, the ones I have used do work. Great Product."
249280,2,Conflicting packaging,"The package touts a ""7-year guarantee"". I bought the batteries mid-May '10. They were made in April '10, and they expire in March 2016. 2016 - 2010 = 6. I have no idea where they got 7."
249338,2,Works just fine if you're not in a hurry,"This little modem works great and is small, easy to use. It, of course, is not very fast since it is on just a regular phone land line. It sends/receives faxes and is handy when once in awhile, DSL is not available for an internet connection."
249358,2,ScotchBlue Painter's Tape,"I used this tape in the past and did not like it - it was hard to remove and did not leave a clean line. 3M really improved this product, and now I have different widths available in my tool box for any jobs I have requiring painters tape. Great product!"
249359,2,you feel like you are among the Maori's .,I spent two years in Aotearoa(New Zealand) and this cd makes me feel like I am on a Marae. You can't get any closer with out going.
249397,2,"Keep hearing ""Here's Love""","I was recently in a production of Meredith Wilson's ""Here's Love"" as a Macy's clerk. Having my first real line EVER in a show in it, I missed the ""Plastic Aligator Song"" on the soundtrack. My favorite song remains ""She Hadda Go Back"" because it reminds me of Prof. Harold Hill and his salesman voice. I think ""Here's Love"" is a great play to be in, and lots of fun to watch, so this CD is a great way to hear some of the music! ""This Famous Plastic Aligator's guarrenteed for life! It'll swim like a fish, blow like a whale, pour you a beer or a ginger ale, wriggleing around from head to tail! Buy one today!"""
249451,2,Such a cute adorable movie!,Love this film! Carell is great as the villain you love to hate and the minions are hilarious. The kids are adorable but I'm scared how the sequel will do. Here's hoping they have as great of a story as they did in this first one!
249471,2,Supes flies on the Great White Way,"""Superman: The Musical?"" You might claim it sounds like a bad idea. And as a life-long Superman fan, I would agree. But when I found out about this show, I rushed to find the soundtrack. Fearing what would happen to Superman without the music of John Williams. But the Man of Steel soars with the music of Strouse and Adams, the same composers of ""Bye Bye Birdie."" The music is delightfully simple, with no hard edges or philosophical meanings. The lyrics and melodies connote an age of innocence, a comic book culture in which simple actions offered role models and uncomplicated heroes. The CD is reasonably priced with 23 tracks, including 4 bonus tracks. The booklet comes with a synopsis of the show and pictures from the production. A must for fans of Broadway, obscure musicals, or Superman fans."
249478,2,"Great support, but makes boobs pointy","From crazzeto's wife:The first thing I noticed about this bra was that the material was not the soft cotton blend I'm used to, but some sort of strange plastic-y feeling stuff. I thought it would feel awful against my skin but I actually got used to it very quickly. I also noticed that it was extremely tight. I suppose it helps with support, but I could hardly fasten it and the straps dug into my shoulders! I also couldn't adjust the straps much at all. The worst part about this bra, though, it that it makes my boobs VERY pointy and makes them point outwards towards my shoulders like some sort of Madonna costume. It also made my breasts look smaller. I am keeping it only because it is so dang hard to find a bra in my size."
249545,2,I keep coming back to it.,"I love this game. It has a lot of extras to download and keeps me playing it. The large maps are the best for sniping, and the action and many different weapons make this a winner."
249587,2,"Glad to help the environment, but...","the paper is not very soft. However, it's worth it to feel like you are making an environmentally conscientious choice."
249602,2,Alkaline Trio/Hot Water Music - Split,"How can 2 bands that are so great release a bad album? The answer: they can't. Some of the best new material from both of these bands can be found here. Alk3 and HWM each of 2 brand new tracks on here, plus they cover each others songs. Alk3 covers the HWM track ""Rooftops"", and they do a phenomenal job of it. More upbeat than the HWM version, the track loses nothing from the original while being adapted to Alk3's characteristic sound. HWM take on Alk3's hits ""Radio"" and ""Bleeder"". The HWM version of ""Radio"" is very similar to the Alk3 version, merely a bit rougher along the edges. Great job there. Now on the other hand, the HWM cover of ""Bleeder"" has been transformed from pop-punk, to a sullen, acoustic rock song - and its done to perfection. The only complaint I have is that its so short. These 7 songs will definitely leave you wanting more from both bands. 8.5/10For reviews like this and much more, visit bigtouchin.com"
249605,2,It finally got to the library,"They had it hidden in back, UNCIRCULATED! The title grabbed me and the premise is delicious. Toy City is the badass place that Toy Town became. Picture Back to the future town as East Saint Louis. Bad things happen; a lot! Although this is obstensively a mystery, it is also satire and political comment. But it keeps it's sense of humor down to the bunnies hiding on the cover page. I miss Douglas Adams, but Robert Rankin has provided that just out of kilter storytelling that made Dirk Gently a must read."
249618,2,eye opening,"Details about the true Obama No surprise as Obama is all about how to lie to everyone. This documentary just highlights the history behind the true Obama, not the b.s. that we had to read in the book."
249652,2,Very happy!,"One or both of these will be attached to my Harley Softail and will be seen from the front. They look old school sporty, and the colour scheme really suits the rest of the bike without being over done."
249801,2,chika boom boom boom,"I loved it all, right down to the last little peyote button. The les\gay\girl love thing doesn't bother me one iota, insofar as whatever floats your boat, but I always associated it with a certain amount of underlying ickiness(the physical part)- The cowgirls helped me immensely, not to say that I find the lifestyle any more personally appealing, but I can finally see it as sweet- no less pure than any other kind of lust. Now I just have to work through my feelings about Sissy and the Chink- the age difference thing completely grosses me out, like makin' it with grandpa or something. Aside from that one rather personal hang-up, I say drop out of life for a few days because once you start reading you won't be able to stop. (please note: possible tom robinson(to kill a mockingbird) allusion in Jelly Bean? just wondering.)"
249809,2,On a Rainy Day...,"Just bought this recording on Vinyl at Amoeba in SF for a very reasonable price. I consider myself a fan of Jackie McLean but I checked out the other amazon reviews on my phone at the store before I purchased it. Must say I really enjoy it and I even like the banter on the first cut. It is interesting to hear how the musicians interact with each other and the language they use since it was recorded in 1957. The music is of a high quality and the sound is very good as well. If you like Jackie McLean(and you should) this is a nice addition to your collection although I agree not an essential purchase. However, it is nice to have music that is little known and is not owned by most people. It's like you are in an exclusive (music) club. Great to Play on a Rainy Day Like Today in Nor Cal"
249810,2,good,"The graphics on this look amazing on my new tv! Howerver, sometimes I get a little irritated with all the current music in kids films and when they make the characters overly hip."
249858,2,Great for the homeowner,I have rented the massive hammer drills before and they are fast. This is not quite as fast but also has less of a chance of cracking the concrete near a window. It will do any concrete drilling that the average homeowner/handyman will ever need to do.
249985,2,Goddess Guidance Cards,These cards were recommended to me by a friend. I was truly amazed at the quality of the cards and the artistry. They are very uplifting and I enjoy using them everyday.
250056,2,A natural singer,"Dana Land has an unique voice that encompasses the best of jazz singers now and then. Dana's ""on stage"" technique is first class and she knows how to communicate with her audience."
250079,2,"Love the show, love the cookbook","While our part of the country doesn't have the easy access to some of the ingredients used in this cookbook, the recipes are still wonderful. Book is presented just like the show and has gorgeous color photos to show the completed dish. Great as a gift or as an addition to your personal library of cookbooks."
250139,2,'Most entertaining,"For a group of guys from 15 to 40, this DVD show is most entertaining. The different voices are showcased individually and together--but then Sharon Browne and Phil Coulter DID put the group together. The staging and camerawork keeps one's interest along with the variety of music--some familiar and some new. The interaction between the lads and with the audience (which for the taping of this show contains alot of their families) is fun and that shines through to us the audience at home. I highly reccommend the show for multiple viewings."
250314,2,A Fairly Broad Overview of Tillich,"Paul Tillich is a heavyweight in Protestant theory, like him or not. This book provides a fairly diverse array of his writings, and a small window into the mind of a prolific and well-known author. Tillich scholars themselves will have to judge how representative it is. I considered it a fair selection, and some of Tillich's writings to be more accessible than others. The selection of Tillich's writings on Socialism is very light, as the editor acknowledges. This book is probably not for the casual reader, so serious readers only need apply themselves to it. I agree with Tillich's liberal and radical proclivities, and he makes a fine argument for the complexity of religious symbolism, as well as a more progressive and inclusive perspective of other religions."
250322,2,Great book for explaining the modern global economy,"An interesting historic account of the rise of containerized shipping, whose success has completely changed the modern world economy. Nothing will ever be the same again as long as container ships are here."
250325,2,A fitting end to the trilogy.,"After a decent opener, a flat sequel, this third installment is the best of the bunch.Though it is much more action packed than the last, and the main characters are all reunited once again to fend off a common threat, it somewhat lacks the humor (from Q's dialouge) of the 1st book.What I really enjoyed was more of the background of the main villian/s and their lore in past Star Trek moments. It is really neat to see how tightly alligned some of these books in comparison to the Star Trek Universe can be.I was expecting a bit more of the Continuum to rear their heads as the trilogy implies, but not really. Also, after done with all three, I'm not sure I learned anything spectacular about the Continuum and thier origins.All in all, Mr. Cox I believe redeemed himself with this book as number 2 was a let down.Enjoy, and I look forward to more Q antics."
250446,2,Don't miss!!,"If you like harmony and original sound that is akin to folk, blugrass, celtic, and country, then you will want this CD! The fresh blend of unique instruments in addition to the incredible vocal range makes the type of music on this CD exceedingly rare. My roommates have practically worn out my CD and every person to whom I have introduced this group (quite a large number) is--regardless of musical tastes and without exception--an immediate fan. I can't say enough about the talent of this band, just get the CD and find out for yourself!"
250472,2,Pretty Darn Good,"Next to faithhopelove, Dogman is the best of King's X. The title track is entertaining, albeit weird, but things pick up from there to some truly beautiful music. If you were a fan of faithhopelove, but you've found yourself disappointed by the self-titled King's X release or the more recent Manic Moonlight, don't be afraid to buy Dogman - it's worth it."
250488,2,What an excellent piece of work!,"A definite must for any Donaldson reader! I can't imagine the amount of work that must have went into the construction of this book! The Land comes to life through meticulously researched and constructed illustrations and maps. Virtually all of the places presented in both the Covenant series are illustrated and scaled. Maps of Covenant's journey are drawn to scale and labeled to correspond to events in the series. A superbly researched and constructed work. The perfect companion to one of (if not the greatest) fantasy series of all time. Excellent excellent excellent! Since this book is out of print, if Amazon can't get one for you, go to EBay and bid on one. You can't fully appreciate the Covenant series without having read it with Karen's book at your side."
250498,2,"Great music, great spectacle",I have loved this movie since it came out. It is beautiful to watch and the all-star cast is very fun. Lots of talent. My kids also enjoy it.
250499,2,The Best of All,"I have seen the 1964 version and then I watched this one. I have to say this by far is the best. The voices of the singers in the 1964 movie, such as Leslie Ann Warren's, are so nasal it's disgusting. This movie has more chemistry and the singers are better."
250531,2,A first-rate combat history!,"This a a great combat history, that treats the Flying Tigers as real men instead of cardboard heroes, and it gives the Japanese side of the story as well. Surprise! The Tigers didn't go into combat before Pearl Harbor. And they never met a Zero in combat.Not so surprising, it looks like they overclaimed their victories by 150 percent or more, putting the Tigers in the usual range for western pilots in the early years of the war. (The Japanese were even more enthusiastic overclaimers!)The Tigers pulled a triumph out of a losing campaign, and unlike other Allied air units they regularly out-fought the Nakajima Oscar fighter that was the Japanese Army's version of the Zero. This is a rousing book. Read it!"
250588,2,Good Costume,"My son loves to dress up. he wears this costume a lot. he had it for 2 months, and still looks good."
250606,2,This is not unnecessary. You will be so glad,"This product makes sleeping possible when your body is sore and sleeping on your side feel awkward and uncomfortable. I highly recommend it! My husband thought this was a silly and unnecessary way to spend money, and now he agrees with me that it was a necessity. You will not regret Snoogle Loop!"
250655,2,Great Tech Person Tool,"I bought the Sabrent case after borrowing a friend's several times to help people recover data from IDE/SATA drives that would no longer boot or appeared to be dead. In conjunction with my personal collection of software recovery tools, I found this case to be a very handy way to safely pack a drive away and access it via USB instead of the old way of cracking open my computer box and fussing around inside there exposing my hardware to potential risk. The Sabrent case simply makes for a nicer work environment. If your a tech person and have clients coming into your work area, it also makes you look more professional."
250724,2,LOVE this thing!!,"I've had one for 2 years, use it about twice a month. Grills sandwiches evenly, easy to clean (I just wipe it off with soft paper towels while the grills are still slightly warm), cord wraps tidy and the locking works great allowing you to store it vertically which saves storage space. The multiple settings allows you to cook thick/think sandwiches accordingly. Great product!"
250754,2,Great video but a little truncated,"I have seen the Moody Blues in concert several times in the past few years and they still sound great as evidenced by this video. There are four original members of the group but the keyboardist, Mike Pinder left the group long ago and I miss him with his rich baritone voice. Without Mike, we never get to hear ""And the Tide Rushes In"" performed anymore. However, the other four along with a new keyboard player sound great and this video is very representative of how they sound live in concert at this stage of their careers. They don't vary their repetoire much, what you see here is pretty much what you get at every concert (e.g. their ""Night at Badrocks"" CD and/or video). My main criticism of this video is that the editing seems a little truncated. Maybe having seen them live emphasizes this in my mind but I think anyone who views this will get the same feeling. Otherwise, this is an enjoyable video that gives the essence of a Moody Blues concert."
250779,2,good book,Really great story. Stanley isn't the best writer in the world but that is ok. his story is very thought provoking. i highly recomend
250939,2,Morning Magic CD - It's Great!,"I - We! - listened to this tape since the time my kids were toddlers. It is wonderful! Upbeat, positive, warm, feel-good music, meant for kids but easy to listen to for all ages. My kids are now 14 and 17, and I am ordering a cd version for both myself, and my 50 year old sister - we both still love the CD!"
250941,2,Huge grinder,"I didn't realize how big it was (about a 2"" diameter), but it gets the job done, and the pollen catcher is quite good."
250973,2,Effectively protects your razr.,"This leather case is a must for protecting the fragile razr from falls.The front window is a little crooked, and the ear openings don't quite fit.But the pruduct is effective."
251051,2,A Relaxing and Wonderful Trip,"Incubus has done it again! One of the most mature rock bands somehow appeals to all age groups. This album is not only enjoyable but very atmospheric as well. Anyone who has listened to any incubus song in the past knows very well the emotion and power behind this band. Songs like Echo, Warning and Morning View are extremely well done and somewhat of a throwback to many older and legendary bands. Wish You Were Here is simply a great song and all of thier tunes have a special lasting effect, ( as you may already know considering the popularity of the last Incubus album). You can not go wrong with any album from this group and this album will be played years later with the same effect that Pearl Jam / Ten and Dave Matthews / Crash has."
251113,2,First KK,Klean Kanteen was recommended by many of my co-workers who used them daily. I was going to purchase a BPA free plastic bottle but even though the bottle is BPA free other plastics may emit over time. Overall I am satisfied with the product and to my surprise I received the Sport cap after ordering the loop. The only negative is the sport cap's whooshing sound when drinking.
251114,2,Tasty most of the time,"I purchased two of these for my husband and myself. I've been using mine daily for a little over a month. Occasionally, the water will have a metalic taste, usually only if it's been sitting in the container for several hours. The container can get dinged up if you're rough on it, but I didn't really purchase it for it's aesthetic value..."
251136,2,Best water bottles around,"I own the 40oz with a regular cap and the 27oz with the sports cap. I originally planned to only have the 40oz bottle, but I didn't realize how large it was so I bought the 27oz bottle also. Despite being sort of pricey, these water bottles are a worthy investment. The main reason I bought them was because my plastic water bottles would begin to smell funky after a few days without being washed. I'm a college student so I don't really have the available resources to give the water bottles a good clean. With these water bottles, the stainless steal prevents bacterial growth, so you don't get that nasty smell. A rinse every few days will keep your water tasting fresh. I really likes these water bottles for their durability and convenience. Definitely worth the extra buck."
251145,2,Good product for the price,"I have owned a few Klean Kanteen and Sigg water bottles and love them both. For the price, you can't beat the Klean Kanteen. Love the new sports cap except 2 of the 5 bottles I purchased make a loud dolphin like sound while you are drinking... that was not so good during yoga class. We still enjoy them but having to take the lid off to drink is annoying."
251236,2,"Still Think About the Book, Months after Reading","The content of this book is fantastic. The essays give insight into photography in a way that I had never thought of before and the photographic essays give context and background for those essays. Any fan of art, philosophy, or just pretty pictures should pick up a copy. The only negative thing I have to say is that this book was formatted HORRIBLY. It looks as if it was made in Microsoft Word. The font is ugly and bolded, the margins don't seem consistent, and the pictures look as if they were copy and pasted in and pushed around to make an unattractive collage."
251242,2,Surprisingly dope.,"When I first got this joint I was like, yeah yeah, some more bullsh*t gangsta rap, but after listening to it I was really took back. This sh*t ain't bad at all, mad heads are gonna be surprised by this double LP. Basically disc 1 is the west coast sh*t, and disc 2 is the east coast sh*t, cause I hope ya'll know that Kurupt is from my hometown, Philly. I mean I can't sit here and say I liked every song, because I damn sure didn't, but you take the good with the bad, on the average I'd have to say that the east coast joint is dope, with Buckshot connecting on ""Light Sh*t Up"", and Noreaga doing his thing on ""We Can Freak It Out (remix)"". It's a well produced album, with heads like Easy Mo Bee, Battlecat, Studiotone, and Daz coming though on the production tip. On the real though, I know alot of people think Kurupt is wack, but give this joint a chance, you will be surprised by what you hear."
251308,2,This is a life-changer,"I love this book! It has given me a whole new view of food and its place in my life. It's not a diet book, but I'm losing weight, feeling better, and learning to keep food in its proper place. Since I'm not on a diet, I won't reach the point where I ""stop dieting"" and regain the weight, like so many times before."
251348,2,pleased better than i thought,"liked the Vandor I love lucy coasters, set of four. I was pleased with the selection of pictures. I am using them on my end tables. They wipe off clean and dry back to a shine."
251417,2,A Different Slant for Screenwriting Books,"I really enjoyed this book because it takes a slant on screenwriting that's different from the (numerous) other books I've read on the subject. Instead of focusing on craft-like issues such as 3-act structure, which many other books have already done, ""So You Want to be a Screenwriter"" concentrates on the emotional and psychological issues of screenwriting. If you've ever experienced writer's block (and who hasn't?), if you've wondered things like what it would be like to collaborate with someone else on a script, or if you're trying to create more memorable characters in your scripts, this is the book for you.Don't think though that because I've used the word ""psychological,"" that this book reads like a college text - it doesn't. Also, it includes many interesting interviews with Hollywood insiders.""So You Want to be a Screenwriter"" would make a great addition to any writer's bookshelf."
251441,2,Wrist watch of right size,"I was looking for a watch which is of right size for me, with good looks and great price.Pros: Good looks, size of the dial and great price.Cons: The hour and minutes hand are not so greatly visible due to the background items (the 3 small dials) and minute and hour marking are of almost same color as the minute and hour hands."
251443,2,No perfume smell,"These don't have the over powering perfume of most deoderizers. I put one in my small walk in closet and the odor of shoes and dirty laundry is no longer present. I originally bought one to put near a litter box and it worked wonders. I recommend these in every child's bedroom, anywhere someone smokes, even in a kitchen. I even put one in my new car to cut the ""new car"" smell. It worked!I now give these as gifts just to introduce people to them. I like them much better then anything I can buy at a local store."
251477,2,"Great game, some flaws","This is a great game, a great addition to the Capcom action/adventure games that are out there right now. The above information is wrong though, the backgrounds are pre-rendered, and have no polygons. They look awesome anyway. The characters are comprised of over 10,000 polygons, the highest count in character polygons in gaming...ever. This means highly detailed characters with great graphics. It's easy to control if you are used to Resident Evil, but otherwise its kinda hard to get used to. My only complaint is that the game is short, lasting about 6 hours... The game takes place in Feudal Japan, and is historically accurate and researched if that means anything to you."
251501,2,A Great Tool for Young Writers,"The Thesaurus for Kids is a wonderful writing tool for beginning authors or for children who want to erase ""wimpy"" words from their writing pieces. It opens up the amazing world of words for young scribes!"
251542,2,I'm not sick of Alice yet.........,This book was good except I think that they could have ended it a little better. It's definitely worth reading though! I hope Phyllis Reynolds Naylor writes more of these.
251549,2,Love it,"I bought this for a birthday gift for my husband. He likes it, and I love it. Expensive perhaps, but worth it. Now I just need to wait for him to finish the bottle of that old stuff he has."
251569,2,Another benchmark,"Every now and then, I just stop shopping. It happens when I try something new - and, not only does it beat everything similar I've tried before, but I can't imagine anything better coming along. Well, I won't be shopping for jeans any more, now that I've found RIGGS Relaxed Fit from Wrangler. Right fit, right material, right loops, right pockets, right price - throw in the fact that amazon.com always has my size (48x30? yep, so far...) and I can't imagine finding a better jean at the price.I'm writing this while wearing my first pair, by the way - and as I'm about to order my second. Maybe my third, too..."
251664,2,Short but good,This is a short but very clear and very detailed book. It gives most of the techniques and the concepts to understand neural networks. it was my first introduction to the topic and since then I have been able to read more advanced texts and papers. I would say that this is the ideal entry point to the topic as well as an interesting book for the general reader willing to have a general overview of the field
251706,2,"Great filming, great acting, fascinating story.","This film took me back to Russia. The scenery and characters played true to life. The ugly rows upon rows of apartments, the village homes, the Moscow winter slush, and the beautiful white Russian snow, which seems to hide everything that is wrong and ugly.I fell in love with Yekaterina Rednikova. She reminded me of some of the wonderful interpreters I had on my many trips to Moscow and the interior. Daniel Craig was lifelike. Just like you or me. (No Schwarzenegger, Pierce Brosnan, or Bruce Willis here). Gabriel Macht was an irritant. A necessary fool.The story, based on the book by Robert Harris, played up to the world's fascination with Stalin, Hitler and the like. Okay, but not as good as Snow Wolf by Glenn Meade. The movie played up to my fascination with Russia and its people. I was not disappointed."
251724,2,"A very good value for the price, less than $20","I found the swim video to be a very good value. It was less than one lesson! My daughter Emily, 3 years old loves to watch it over and over. We practice the three main lessons together in the pool. She has made great strides in less than two weeks. The video state a week, but it has taken use two weeks to get the swimming down. Ryan my 6 year old loves to watch it also, though he is already a good little swimmer. The kids love it and it helped me to cover the basics. Now my kids are on their way to being good swimers and safer this summer!"
251817,2,Beautiful Pendant,"This is a very unique pendant, much larger that it appears in the photo. Everytime I wear it I get complements. Another great purchase from a great seller!"
251894,2,Best J.S. Bach Sonatas for Flute and Harpsichord,Finally I found a complete Bach Sonatas CD. Laurel Zucker and Gerald Ranck have recorded all of the sonatas brilliantly. Great sounding hall too. I give this recording highest ratings.
251899,2,Inspired,"Lysa always writes such inspiring and thought provoking books. I can't wait to get my copy, if even half as amazing as some of the events I have heard her at, it is more than worth the price."
251907,2,Miss Vocabulary,I would definately recommend this book to teachers and parents of children in at least 3rd grade. This narrative book has unique and wonderful way of introducing so many vocabulary words. You can find something new each time you read it. Also it addresses quite well dealing with embarrassment. Sage is a great tool to start a discussion about how we can deal with making mistakes in a graceful mannor. Brush up on your vocabulary today!
251960,2,Worth every penny,Why buy a cheap case for such an expensive piece of equipment? This case has held up perfectly for 3 years now.
252029,2,the Khan evolution,"This is probably the earliest work of theirs I own with Roy S Khan on vocals. While later offerings such as Ghost Opera and Black Halo are even stronger, this is a good solid cd by a great band. For any fan of progressives like Queensryche, Fates Warning, or european power metal such as Helloween, Gamma Ray.....you just cant go wrong with Kamelot. Easily one of the better bands I've run across in the last several years. When they found Khan, it put them in the elite."
252030,2,Inventive and it rocks too,"This is easily one of the better progressive metal entries in years. From the Asian instruments in the opening track, ""The Fourth Legacy"", to the Middle Eastern sounds in ""Nights of Arabia"", Kamelot show a lot of daring and ingenuity that is so often missing in metal. While some of the vocals are limited in range, the band is talented and may have a bright future in store...a good buy for those who enjoy progressive metal."
252037,2,The Tardis is Awesome,"This toy is really cool. It's got lots of little details that Dr. Who fans will appreciate. I was surprised by it's size, too. It's quite big and took about 30 minutes to put together, but it was worth it. And the sound effects are great."
252069,2,Very happy customer!,"I was very impressed with the packaging,and timley service!They made it very easy on me!Excellent service!I would buy from them again and also reccomend to others!thank you!"
252083,2,Excellent Challenge to Seek God's Peace!,Dr. Stanley has written an excellent title encouraging readers to pursue and realize the deep peace that comes only from God.The book is about 135 pages long and contains 31 devotions centering on some aspect on God's peace. Each chapter contains a relevant prayer at the end encouraging the reader to reflect more on what has been read.Read and enjoy. Highly recommended!
252089,2,Excellent Resource,O'Reilly prints some of the best darn computer resource manuals on the market. A superb reference for anyone who writes ASPs!Without all the fluff of most computer manuals...no useless demos! Way to go Weissinger.
252256,2,I Am In Love With Jobot!,"From the very start of this cd (Prelude in Reverse) shows the unique style of this young band. From there things just keep getting better! With guitar parts reminiscent of Dave Matthew's Band and heartfelt lyrics written and performed by Mr. Biggins, each listening brings to light new surprises. After seeing a live performance of Nokomis Court (the drummer, Jobot, is so hot) I absolutely can't wait for their second album, which should be out sometime later this year!"
252268,2,Still around???,"To this day Soluna is my favorite latino girl group. It remains in my cd collection to this day. I loved this cd for years...now 6 years later almost, it has slowly faded with me. I'm guessing they split, being I haven't heard of them anymore. The music is beautiful. Everytime I'm ready to knock Soluna out of my top 25 CD rotation I change my mind and keep them at #25. I still can't let them gooo yet..."
252310,2,Some humour + Interesting action scenes + Surprising ending,"- It contains some humour, the Jackie Chan's way.- It has interesting action scenes.- It's complicated due to multiple layers.- The ending is surprising.- Jackie Chan's acting is engaging.- The ending is surprising."
252366,2,Gel Flex Pads are great!,"I work with Pathologist all day and they continually complain that their arms hurt from looking into the microscopes all day. After looking over their situation a bit I decided to buy them some of the gel pads to put under their elbows. Well, it worked....they love them."
252367,2,Quite helping wrist rest,"I recently purchased a couple of these for a friend and me. He thinks it works great. I think it has some warmth issues when prolonged use and a little bit hard when you start using it, still it's a pretty good wrist rest. I'd recommend it."
252403,2,Burning Books on Fenwick Street,A fictional account of what could happen to our country if we allow our politicians and special interests to get out of control.Mr. Dravis tells a story almost as well as Jean Shephard!A book that even this Nixon admirer enjoyed.Excelsior!
252425,2,Outstanding and fun Irish music,Michael conveys the fun and joy of Irish music with songs that range from longing to laughing. This CD charms our children and sets our feet tapping. Highly recommended.
252436,2,Thanx Heaps,Thanx Heaps On Time And Great Season Love Top Gear Cant Wait For Next Season Bring It On WOO HOO
252466,2,YES IT WORKS !!!!,I forgot that I had the patch on one day and wondered what was wrong with me. I felt like I had the stomach flu. Not that I had a sick feeling but that I had no appetite. Then I remembered that I was wearing the patch and is already in the habit of replacing it everyday!
252486,2,Love it.,"This is one of those items where you wonder why you never got one before. Such a simple idea, yet now all my cords look so much neater and it's much easier to plug things in. Quality is good."
252525,2,Best Gin book ever,This book put me top of my ladder after I read it. Teaches you the strategies of playing gin and out thinking your partner. My win percentages went up 20 percent. Worth the read.
252588,2,The doors most underrated album,"I just can't understand people who say this is the weakest doors album. The quality of the songs is superb, every time i listen to it i find a new favourite. The title track shows the doors at there most experimental. One of the best albums the doors ever released."
252608,2,madagascar,this is one the best movies my kids enjoyed it so much they never moved.i would invite anyone with small children to get this one it's great!!!
252611,2,Unlikely animal show,The show has some very funny parts to it. Although the lion biting the zebra would normally have a real falling out of friendship. Worst thing is just how hungry did the lion get when it never had food that it could eat.
252616,2,Saven the clips,"It is better than working with a screw driver and pliers! However, it still takes a bit of finesse and muscle."
252635,2,truly the best IVY LEAGUE guide book out there,"They were not lying when they said this is the best book out there about the IVY LEAGUE. I bought it specfically for one college, but I learned alot (and I mean a lot) about this league of prestigious schools. It sure got me untangled."
252637,2,Very informative and practical!,"Tim Elmore is a visiting pastor at our church, northridgechurch.com in MI.We love his stories and insight on raising leaders that serve the Lord.We can learn so much for the stories of others and Tim is talented at taking someone's story and applying the lessons from that story to the rest of us. A very good read."
252679,2,A timeless masterpiece,"Pink Floyd's ""Wish You Were Here"" is nothing short of a masterpiece. This collection of ""postcards to Syd Barrett"" plays like one 44 minute song. This album is an essential part of any Rock fan's collection. I own this album on LP, but it would sound good on any format. The best way to enjoy this album is to disconnect your phone, close all of your windows and doors, and turn your stereo up LOUD and envelope yourself in the sound..."
252733,2,No complaints,"It got to me in good time - no extensive delays. My computer is working well with it, so far. Thanks!"
252735,2,Great!,"This is a delightful little book about everyone's favorite number (sorry ""e""). Blatner explains the history of pi, attempts throughout the ages to compute pi to hundreds (and then billions) of digits, and the exploits of nerds (much like myself, but smarter) to memorize pi to thousands of digits. There is no heavy math involved; reading this book is a pleasant way to spend an afternoon!"
252778,2,Sandra's first album!,"On 25th October 1979, this album was released in Japan... Now re-issued as CD, it features the original artwork on he cover and the back cover (booklet)... The most beautiful tracks are: ""Dancing In The Fire Of Love"", ""City Cats"", ""Hell Driver"", ""Don't Kiss A Crocodile"" and ""Plastic Heart""... Sandra was only 17 in the photos of this album, and she just joined the trio when they recorded it... A must for any Sandra fan!"
252790,2,good for kids,"Kids learn quickly, purchased for grandkids to learn to play and it is easy for them to follow and practice"
252922,2,Wonderful! Reveiw by a 12 year old,"This is a wonderful book! It tells the story of a young girl who is a preachers daughter and faces always moving from place to place, therefore never having any friends. When Jo moves to Jericho, she finds a new friendship in an unexpected person. She must face the racism in her town and help her friend overcome it and other challenges. This is a wonderful book, for all ages!"
252926,2,The BEST James Gang ensambles VERY BEST album.,"Tommy Bolin,Roy Kenner,Dale Peters and Jim Fox make up a quartet second to none with this offering.A must have for all rock fans who have followed the evolution(s) of the band or just enjoy top-notch rock.No,joe is long gone by the release of this album(1973) and prospering in a solo career.Enter Tommy Bolin who can make a flying V talk and Roy Kenner who is an excellent vocalist(face it folks Joe couldn't sing).The best tracks (to me)are""Standing in the Rain"",""The Devil is Singing our Song"",""Ride the Wind"",""Alexix"",""Got no time for trouble""-get the picture.They're all good.These guys had it down.They were in the same mode of Montrose and Foghat.Don't miss on this-a sure winner(has been for a long time)."
252927,2,The best Ockeghem performances!,"The Clerks' Group is a supreme group of singers, and these performances of Ockeghem's music are supreme in quality, far outstripping most other groups' recordings by far. It is very hard to find good performances of Ockeghem's music, partly because it is so dense polyphonically. The Clerks' Group has risen to the challenge superbly. I can't rave enough about these recordings.For some reason, the MP3 downloads on this Amazon site aren't working (not for me anyway), but the recordings can be purchased, @ $.99 per cut, on the iTunes Store."
252948,2,Amazing,"Each story is just perfect. It is hard to drop this book for more than a few moments, until it is finished."
252974,2,GREAT COLECTION,"I still havent finished the 8 discs yet but I love this purchase..it is a real collector's edition.. Now, I can watch the older versions of this movie up to the latest..With the price, it's worth spending... I strongly recommend this for purchase. You won't regret."
252980,2,a great box set,"Unless you purchased all the nightmare films individually, this box set is definately worth it. Just incase there are still some of you out there who have not seen these movies, I won't spoil the plot(s) for you. The dvd set has clear picture transfer and good sound quality. You get to see each movie in its theatrical widescreen glory. The bonus disc is loaded with good features that any Freddy fan would appreciate. Why don't I give this boxset a fifth star? Well, because I thought that all of the movies were good except for Part 5. Each sequel has received mixed reviews but isn't that usually how it is with B-flicks? In my opinion, each sequel gets more creative as you go along through the series and throughout the sequels you have returning characters. Unlike most B-flicks, the nightmare series got the dvd treatment it deserves. Each disc even has dvd-rom features."
253029,2,An outstanding complex plot that will leave you wanting more,"An outstanding complex plot, which leaves you guessing until the last page. This is part of an outstanding trilogy. The characters, Claire and Tony are fully developed, well rounded flawed characters. I love them. If you love a good crime, mystery, thriller, romance. Then series is for you. There is no simple plot here. This book played out like a movie in my head. And I applaud Ms. Miller on this great read."
253044,2,This CD is good but.....,I really wish they would come out with a 2nd CD with all the songs performed in the movie. Most people I have spoken to about this all agree. I hope you agree as well.My favorite song wasn't on it and I was very disappointed. When I listened to the whole thing and the ending song wasn't on there it was a shock. Ewan's voice gives me the chills and that song is one of the best he sings. Other than that I LOVE THIS MOVIE AND CD.
253051,2,Great Soundtrack,"Fun covers of some classic tunes. Minus one star for not including the amazing ""Like a Virgin"" from the movie."
253097,2,Cuba!,"New change of direction for MB: In their exploration of latino music they find Cuba and Cuba seems to like it! ""Cha Cha Cuba"" is a great track recorded in the same studio as the ""Buena Vista Social Club"" and sounds very acoustic and quite infectious. "" Sunny side up"" might just be one of the best pop songs ever written and ""Could you be"" is such a great lovesong that it is hard not o melt like butter. Great Album!"
253193,2,Almost good,"I bought the star belly chain for my fiance. Was shiny and good, but the star broke and it became a plain waist chain from the second time. Price is too much."
253200,2,Norpro Stainless steel compost keeper,"Love it, it looks great on our counter and goes with our stainless steel appliances. I purchased the bags also and for 3 people we use about 2-3 a week. Our garbage can is now almost empty. Highly recommended."
253280,2,Thumbs Up!,"We always hear of the atrocities the Jewish race endured during World War II, however, very rarely do we see a glimpse into life as a German citizen during this time. ""Those Who Save Us"" tells a story of the overwhelming conditions that the Germans faced at the hands of their own government; murder, rape, cruelty, starvation and constantly living under a scrutiny of suspicion. This novel was a great surprise; very well written and a truly a page turner. What would you endure to save those you love? Please note that the scenes of rape and cruelty are quite explicit."
253282,2,Good read - though gratuitous in parts,"I enjoyed this book quite a bit, and would have given it 5 stars except I felt some of the story line was overly gratutious."
253284,2,The best book I have ever read....,"This book is filled with characters that are so real that you will remember them for a long time after you have finished reading the novel. I've recommended this book to many people and all of them have agreed that this is the best novel they have read in a long time. Ms. Blum is a brilliant writer. ""Those Who Save Us"" is destined to be a classic. Read it, I know you will agree."
253364,2,A Must Read!,"This book was one of the best. It is about a girl who is accused for murder while on a trip to Rhode Island. Avi uses desciption and vividness to pull the reader right into this book. While it is hard to explain as to what the book was about I will say that it is a must read and that if you have ever wondered what the hard times at sea where like and what the true meaning of friendship is like you will love this book. Charlotte, the main character, is easy to get to know and is someone everyone can relate to with her ongoing bravery and fears."
253393,2,"This book is excellent, but its pace is to fast.","This books pace is way to fast, and the explantions are to hurried. The author starts on one subject and the quickley proceeds to another with little segway in between. Besides this week point it is an excellent book. It forces the reader to think, really think about what our goverment is hiding from its citizens. What dark forces are behind this project and does it affect us and our freedom in this country. A must have for anyone who wants to learn more and develope his own opinion."
253433,2,Fun...if I could see it....,"I've waited ever so long for this, a sequal to the rpg-style of SotN, and I wasn't disappointed. But one thing I really didn't like, ( well two ), but that the DSS card system was unfair, since in 47% through the game, I've only recovered 5 cards! Now, my second main dislike, was of couse, the lightness of the screen. Even with the wormlight, it's still hard to see some enemies at times, that is, if you're not in a pitch dark room with only the wormlight on...heh. Otherwise, this is a MUST OWN, it is a good platformer and enough depth to keep even the most hardkore glued to their GBA screens for hours!"
253479,2,Excellent,"This book reports to The Club of Rome the merits of having a world-system computer, under Socialism, to run the world. A must have for conspiracy buffs."
253567,2,First Alert CO615 CarbonMonoxide Alarm,Product arrived quickly and was easy to setup. Like the battery backup and digital display of carbon monoxide level so you can see if levels are changing.
253570,2,Great Product // Battery Backup Feature A+,Great product especially for the price.Battery backup is a must. Not sure why other reviewers noted flimsy parts/battery area as I have been unable to locate anything wrong with the unit i received.
253573,2,Great overlooked Rock/punk album.,"This is their best album. It is true energetic rock with a slight punk feel. It is much better than their later ""hair-metal"" sound. Growing up in Southern Maryland all my friends and I had this album. When I moved to L.A. in the 80's no one I met had heard of them. Once I played the album they all wondered why they hadn't. The unique sound of this album belongs in any rock fans collection."
253627,2,Excellent overview,"A small pocket book with lots of helpful information. While it can not compare with the anatomical details and theoretical depth of Ida Rolf's own book, it provides an excellent overview on what the Rolfing Method of Structural Integration is, what its basic theoretical premises are, and most of all what one can expect as a potential client. All the 10 sessions are described acurately, what happens in them and how one can support them as a client. Written by an experienced Rolfer, this is currently the most user-friendly guide on the market."
253634,2,3rd Graders say its a must-read,"The Magicians Nephew is a great book because you enter a magical world that is entertaining. The main characters are Digory and Polly. They are on a quest to save Digory's mom. They need to go to Narnia to get the medicine to cure his mom. Each time you read a page it gets better and better, it's a real page turner!Written by 3rd graders in Lara Academy"
253636,2,Excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,Brav-O C.S. Lewis!!! I enjoyed this book like it was really happening to me. You will love this book as much as I did if you start to read it this very second!! Read how Polly and Digory learn of the secret world between world. Learn how they can travel to Narnia and all of the other ponds in the peace and quiet pond place. Read how Digory's mean Uncle tricks Polly into doing something she doesn't what to do. And learn how the Latern in Narnia was created! You will enjoy this book very very very very very very very much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
253645,2,Mclane Edger,I must say that I agree with all the previous reviews. The edger engine starts on command but the throttle is a very poor design. Our cable broke after only several usages and I was fully aware of the issue prior to purchase so I was extra cautious. A new design is definitely needed.
253665,2,Brilliant and Evocative,"Millay has been criticized for her lack of technical rigor, but that is the very essence of her accessibility to readers. Yes, she wrote poems that rhymed, sometimes to the point of sing-song meter, but her words carried weight. They meant (and still mean) something, not like the esoteric, pseudo-intellectual hodge-podge that passes for modern poetry. It seems that today's poets wear their inaccessibility as a badge of honor - that only a select group of academic word-smiths can even understand what they have written seems to represent success for them. Not so with Edna. She touches your heart, sometimes even breaks it, with common words, feelings, emotions. You don't have to work for her meaning, it is plainly presented for all to read. But beware! Her poems may be easy to understand, but they are impossible to forget."
253668,2,Who's Crazy Anyway,"I wish there was such a book when I was working in the mental health field. Joan Mazza's survey of psychotherapy covers in brief just about every area of a wide topic,and the extensive (30 pages) bibliography then directs the reader to more comprehensive treatments. This is a book for the 21st century: Ms. Mazza clearly lists patient's rights and responsibilities, stressing the importance of personal empowerment, over ""victimology"", i.e. passive surrender to mental health experts. I highly reccommend this book to anyone actively seeking direction for their own mental health work. If anything, the wide array of possibilities can be mind-boggling; I found it inspiring."
253722,2,Finding humour in tragedy,"What a lovely book!Although the writing was at times a little embarrasingly self-conscious, the characters and the author's incredible ability to pick herself up over and over again eclipse the sometimes awkward prose. I wish I had the strength she has!"
253824,2,Favourite Poems - Vol 2,"Book was a gift for my mother who grew up in Glasgow, Scotland and Donegal, Ireland. She got a great kick out of the poems she had to memorize as a child and she still remembers quite a lot of them verbatim. She enjoyed it immensley."
253846,2,Excellent Speakers.....Great Value,"I am very pleased with these speakers. They sound great hooked up to my Samsung LCD. They are perfect if you want big speaker sound in a small box. The really do sound great and for $49.00 you can't beat them. If you are wondering, they plug in like normal speakers (red and black push style buttons, then you push in the speaker wire) and in-fact, come with wire to do so (so don't be worried about needing special wires).2012Now, years later, still great speakers for our family room TV, excellent sound for the money."
253847,2,Great Value,"These Sony SS-B1000 speakers are a great value. Great sound quality with low cost. The small footprint is nice, too."
253928,2,Great purchase,"This Hai flat iron was the best price on the web and shipping was fast as promised. Because the price was so low I was afraid at first it might be a knock-off, but it wasn't. It works perfectly and I am very happy with it."
253950,2,Great and affordable!,"I bought this for my fiance' for Christmas, and I don't think I've seen him without it since! He says it's his best gift this year. And at such a good price, it's definitely worth it!"
253980,2,A Truly Wonderful Little Film,"The Brother From Another Planet is a film about ideas and relationships. It is truly about alination through the eyes of an Alien from another planet.There are very few 'special effects' this is not about 'WOW! look at that! film"" The beginning allows the viewer to understand that the filmmakers were on a limited budget and that the film is not about extravaganzas but about people. It is extremely fummy while allowing the viewer something to chew on after the final credits roll. By using an 'Alien' themes of predjudice and precieved cliches are preasented in a way that is both entertaining and thought provoking. This is a truly fun film but also a well thought out one. the directors' commentary is also excellent and well worth listening to more than once."
254011,2,The best bottles ever!,"These were the 3rd bottles I tried, and they were the best ever! If you are having an issue with the nipples collapsing, be sure to note that there are different ""stages"" of nipple. My son would collapse the stage 1, but when I replaced them with a stage 2, the problem was solved. I actually found that he was able to drink these bottles faster than any of the others, and resulted in less gas. Unlike the AVENT bottles, it does not cost an arm and a leg to buy new nipples. If you purchase the bottle basket for the dishwasher, washing is a snap."
254035,2,Robert's Rules of Order: Newly Revised (10th Edition),"This is a very well written book, although at time to be a bit wordy, but it serves the purpose."
254079,2,Hard Rock,"This cd I baught mainly for 2 songs:Cold Shower and Sex.If you like to hear 80's hard rock,you will like this one.It only has 1 slow song on it.The other songs are good to listen to every once in a while."
254091,2,A very good taster,"I had heard a couple of Bad Co's songs (and loved them), so decided to buy this 80's compilation which covers 10 songs. It also was a bargain price. The good news is, the 10 songs chosen for this compilation are fantastic and a very good representation of what the band offered in its day. All the well known classics are here including:- Rock and Roll Fantasy- Can't get enough of your love- Feel like makin' love- Shooting StarBasically, this album gave me a very good sample of this great band. I then went out and bought the double Anthology CD to get more of their songs. I'll still hang on to ""10 from 6"" because it features two great songs not found on Anthology (""Electric Land"", and ""Live for the Music"").Anthology is digitally remastered, but if you just want a decent snapshot of this great band, look no further than ""10 from 6"". Don't you know that you are a shooting star?"
254153,2,This is music!,"This is music! Phil Collins has exactly what it takes to bring this band to the forefront. Genesis was already a flower beginning to bud, but now with Phil in the lead, the transformation is complete. This is the Genesis that everyone knows."
254191,2,I love my coffee pot!!!,"I love presto products. Have used them for 59 years, My mother gave us a presto pressure cooker when we got married 59 years ago and I have had coffee pots and kitchen kettles and electric skillets and I use them all the time.Nothing can compare with presto products!!!!"
254194,2,Presto cooffee maker,We use this coffee maker every day and sometimes several times a day. we are very pleased with it.
254197,2,Presto 6-Cup Stainless Steel Coffee Percolator,"Actually, the Presto Percolator makes five cups of coffee instead of six. I use the Melitta #4 cone filters and they work well. The coffee has a good taste and it is hot. It is a good value for the price. So far, I have no complaints."
254252,2,Great and Mildly Weird,"A pirate story? A talking duck? Alternate earths? A straight adventure story? All of these things combine in the weird and wonderful Colonia. It probably isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I very much enjoyed this quirky story of a smart-but-ordinary guy from the ""real world"" who gets sucked into a kind of alternate earth where--among other things--pirates still roam the seas and the ""new world"" of the Americas (called Colonia here) is still mostly an unsettled wilderness. A lot of fun, and it even made me think a little,"
254269,2,A must for abused women,"I was abused as a child and later continued to involve myself in relationships with emotionally abusive partners. I've been in and out of counseling for years, but I never realized how much the trauma of those younger years have impacted how I think, feel, and relate to experiences and people today. I purchased this book on the advice of my current counselor. I have to say that after a month of working in the workbook, I can already tell the difference in myself and my behavior. I would recommend this workbook to anyone who has been abused and is seeking to reclaim their lives from the hopeless heap of dispair and depression that so often occurs to those who have been vicitimzed."
254314,2,Great Product,Does everything as advertized. Love the turbo feature that speeds up the heating process to less than one minute.
254327,2,"Always fresh, unique and fun music!!","The unique and versatile sound of the Bellamy Brothers will always be fresh. Their sound is southern country, reggae, rock. The 70s will never forget their popular ""Let Your Love Flow"", a song with all the right elements to make it a memorable hit.If you tire of the manufactured country music the past decade has given us, listen to the traditional music of the Bellamy Brothers. I caught their music from the old Country Music Television days of video and their songs were never the same, the music was danceable, fun and lyrics were meaningful.This collection is wonderful! Other than my favorite classic, Let Your Love Flow, I enjoy entertaining rhythm of Redneck Girl, Do You Love as Good As You Look, and Lovers Live Longer.There are more original songs to be heard by the Bellamy Brothers. If you don't know them, and you like fresh voices with entertaining lyrics, get to know the Bellamy Brothers. ......Rizzo"
254364,2,Very Nice,Short and sweet:This cleaner really doeas a great job. The fact that there are two resevoirs to keep dirty water away from the clean really makes it great compared to others. The hand tool really works well as well. I used it to detail my vehicle and it worked like a charm. One NOTE** Because of the soap make sure your tile is completely dry or you will slide like gretzky. Not that I know or anything. =)
254372,2,Um WOW!,"I don't need to a super long review to say how amazing this cleaner worked.1. Cleans the carpet VERY well.2. Picks up the left over water so that the carpet can completely dry very quickly.3. Has parts that are easy to handle (especially for my delicate lady hands) and super easy to clean after.This cleaner does an amazing job for a very reasonable price. I figured 1,500 five star ratings couldn't be wrong, and I was so right. Buy this machine, it is what you are looking for."
254419,2,The Best,"I liked that one song ""People are Strange"" because it was dark and I like anything dark. (Except Chocolate)"
254429,2,David luvs S Club 7,"I absolutly luv S Club 7. I couldn't find this cd in any store. It's the best CD I have at the present time. DSM is my favorite song. Go S Club.""Don't Stop Movin' to the S Club beat"""
254456,2,Very nice music box for the money,"Don't really have much to say other than very very nice. Sounds like a miniature home theatre. And for the price, you can't beet it... I give it two thumbs up.."
254484,2,An improvement over round 4,"The action picks back up in this round but still forcuses on the past with bunchichi and shane. Its a solid pick up if you've already purchased the other 4. Still the the last two rounds, 4 and 5, have not lived up to the action packed first three. I see this as building the plot and character development/info episodes."
254494,2,Perfect,"we bought this for our 3 year old for when we went on vacation and it was PERFECT! It blew-up easily, the cover was nice and soft...needless to say she loved it!"
254506,2,Excellent travel bed for toddlers!,"I bought this aero bed for a 2 week road trip. Hotel, camping and staying at family, this bed was exciting and comforting to my little 3 year old girl. She never rolled out of it because of the raised edge completely around the mattress. The mattress blew up in 1 minute and ready for sleeping in a few. This is the cheapest I found it, anywhere!!"
254527,2,Used these to replace rollers that were extra jumbo size in other set!,"Okay, maybe I can use the 5 rollers when I travel, but I really wanted to get 4 Jumbo rollers to replace the extra jumbo (too large!)rollers in my other set that has 12. (Now I have an extra one and heat it up too!) This was the cheapest way to do it. Conair hot rollers are as good and maybe a little better/faster/reliable than all those really expensive sets out there. I have gone back to using hot rollers as these velvet covered rollers seem to protect my hair a lot better than the fancy curling irons. And, I can do something else while they sit in my hair and they are a lot faster than a curling iron... (Of course, I grew up rolling my hair every night/day with about every kind of roller made... but these sure make my very long hair look really good... and that came from a professional stylist who commented on my ""do"" and the great condition of my hair... so, yes, I really like these Conair hot rollers! :)"
254533,2,Absolutely Worth the Money,This is absolutely worth the money. It makes the small-ish Digital Rebel XTi feel 1000% better in your hands. Highly recommended.
254597,2,an excellent true story...,"...about non-true stories, and the man who told them.I had the pleasure of seeing this movie in the theatre, when it first came out. It's a horrifying tale of a trusted reporter, the people who trust him, and how that trust is misplaced....and how, finally, the pack of lies collapses under scrutiny.Excellent performances by all involved. Nowhere within the movie do the actors remind me that they are just actors--very convincing performances especially on the part of Sarsgaard and Christensen. Definitely an art-house movie..no explosions, shootings, or sex...just thoughtful scenes, building to an emotional crescendo.Hopefully, a movie like this is required in journalism ethics classes."
254623,2,A life Saver,"This album kept me sane 15 years ago as I attended High School. I spent an entire year with this tape stuck in my walkman. As I listen to it now, I'm still in awe of its power.At Thrash Metal's peak, when bands moved past the fastest-riff-ever and gothic tones to more meaningful topics and much more mature music, PWYP stands out in a small cluster of releases by an even smaller cluster of artists that to me, truly defined the power of the music and the message it could convey. I miss those days."
254637,2,Because of Winn Dixie,"one thing I liked about this book was thedewberry booys were funny and I liked that winn dixie smiles at people. my favorite part is when opal finds the dog in the store....by Carl, 3rd grade."
254685,2,Barbie Collector Diwali Barbie Doll Festivals Of The World,"This doll is very much durable, the clothings match what most 3rd world country ppl wear. The color and texture is very good."
254768,2,Pleased moviefreak,Was affordable enough to add to my Stephen King collection. I received it in a few days...just in time for a weekend of viewing pleasure.
254846,2,A beautifully written and gripping story,"This book will not disappoint. It is a true story of a young girl and her family and their amazing story of struggle, survival and triumph through several years of containment in the Polish ghetto. It offers a very close and personal perspective as seen and spoken through the eyes of Syvia the young protagonist as well as historical perspectives that are interspersed throughout the book by the author. Adults will enjoy this book as well as the 9 and up target audience."
254855,2,This book is NOT a Zero,I've read several Ken Follett books and he is in top form with Code to Zero. It's written very well with developed characters and an intricate plot with some surprising twists. You get a real sense of the 1950's and the space race during that time. The repeated snippets during the story of counting down the rocket on the pad with all the technical details really added to the book's depth and created tension and suspense. I'd rank this as one of Mr. Follett's best books. A definite must read.
254866,2,There is angels on Earth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,I am 42 year old female that listens to pop and country. I saw Charolette on Jay Leno & Good Morning Amer. and this girl brought tears to my eyes-seriosly!! It was so ironic that I saw her a week apart here in the states. It was as though I was meant to see her both times. She sang Danny Boy the first time. I wish her well. I have a 13 yr. old myself and she is as bubbly as she is talented. From The U.S.-go girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
254979,2,you can hold the whole world in your hands,"Elegantly, Stephen Mitchell has compiled sublime poetry from the world's sacred traditions in this inspiring collection. In a single reading one can experience the lyrical wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita, paradoxical precision of Chuang-Tzu, enthusiasm of Gerard Manley Hopkins, and the sensuality of Rumi and the Song of Solomon. When poets of the sacred explore the divine, whether as a part of a religious tradition or apart from religious tradition, all rises and all converges. Beauty reigns. This collection invites one to hold the whole world of the sacred in one's hands and savor the mystical beauty of poetry and divinity."
254983,2,extraordinary story,great read. story is told in a very interesting manner. this little know subject is brought forth with great storytelling
254985,2,vital dub: well charged,"a classic 1976 recording that hits the spot. not a lot of effects, very little vocals. rather a short recording by today's standards, and virtually anonymous without much in the way of liner notes. features some big names, however: sly, ansel collins, tommy mccook, sticky. leads mostly by horns and keyboards--this music stands on its own as instrumentals. the drawbacks of the poor packaging are more than made up for by the quality of the music and the low price."
255033,2,I don't know what these other people are talking about...,"I have had this pad for a year in my daughter's highchair. It is super cute but better than that, it is so sturdy! I have washed it many times on low to medium cycle and then laid flat to dry and it still looks new and is not even close to splitting! I guess if you threw it in the washing machine on high and fast and tried drying it in the dryer then maybe it would come apart ( like most things ) but if you have common sense then you should have no problem. I have two and am buying another because I love this pattern and have not seen or had anything cuter and better quality! Get it- you will love it, just wash it with a little kindness and it will be fine. Enjoy!!!"
255041,2,Yum Yum Yum,"I love this stuff! I have a sensitivity to honey (and it's a little strong tasting anyway). The agave nectar has the consistency of honey, so it can be substituted 1:1 in recipes. I use it most in smoothies and on pancakes instead of syrup (the glycemic index is lower), but I'm starting to bake with it a bit. Still trying to figure out how to substitute it for white sugar, but I'm getting there. One of my friends and I usually split a case...makes it a lot less expensive than buying a bottle at a time at the health food store."
255071,2,2 Games in 1!,"Great game! Absolute blast to play, extremely funny, and basically 2-games-in-1. One one hand you have the ""Missions"" to do, on the other hand, you don't HAVE to do them if you don't want to. Just run around beating people up, stealing cars, doing stunts, pick up prostitutes, etc.You can steal any car in the game! ANY single one! cars, trucks, ambulances, scooters, motorcycles, Ferrari's, Lamborghini's, Corvettes, police cars...etc......This game is hysterical!The overall fun-factor (scale 1-10) has to be a ""15""! No joke.Where else on Earth can you (legally) beat up cops, steal people's money, have the SWAT Team after you, all from the comforts of your couch?I never get tired of this game. As a matter of fact, I've owned this game since it first came out, and I never even TRY to finish the ""missions"" in the game. I simply pop in the game to steal the cars, and smack people around, and listen to the awesome 80's music soundtrack!"
255093,2,Singing Nuns Rock!,"The reason I decided to purchase this DVD is because when I was a young girl in New Orleans, I played this album every night as I drifted off to sleep. Only the title song, ""Dominique,"" hit the charts at #4, I believe, but every single song they recorded was divinely beautiful. The words, melodies, concepts, their wonderful voices - it was all like a dream.I experienced some trepidation before playing it when it first arrived, though. I thought, are my memories of those beautiful songs more lyrical than they actually were, in reality? But from the moment the music began, it all came rushing back to me - many passages in French, which was astounding - and I play it all the time now. Even my daughter, Grace, is walking around the house singing little snippets of these lovely songs praising God. The Singing Nun is a joyful album and if you want your spirits to rise, put it on and you'll see what I mean!Long live Belgium!"
255110,2,Good for the price!!,It takes good pictures and you can put them on the computer and print them with the included software. The quality is good for being a kid camera. Wish it had zoom capability.
255208,2,I LOVE THIS BOOK !,Im a new mom and found this book to be so helpful in many ways. I read her first book and couldn't believe how many things she wrote about were true. Jenny McCarthy is awesome....She is funny and serious at the same time. I read this book in less the 2 hours. Pls pls get this book if you are a new mom or if you know someone who is a new mom. It is HILAROUS !
255265,2,"like a ball, stoned, imagine 2, is it me.","all those four songs have so much in common... to how we are all treated in society today and the thruth is ...it does come back to us all... Bobby, my opinion about the style of your songwriting is that it is very deep and meaningful but, unfortunately the people this days care only about sex and money (the stock market). So... keep on going! ...your doing a great job! I don't see to many deep thinking writers any more and it makes me feel good to know that you do it."
255317,2,A book of a rare beautiful simplicity,"This is one of the most beautiful books I have read. Issa's story is moving, deeply humane yet not tainted by any melodramatic tendencies. Framed in the Japanese tradition of haiku poetry his poems to his daughter are tender and moving and reveal a deep appreciation of life, beauty and simplicity."
255384,2,Very entertaining read,"I recently bought this book while visiting the Edison-Ford Winter Estates in Fort Myers, FL. It's an amazing informal history whose author is as interesting as his incredible subjects. Edison and Ford really come alive as people, and Newton gives a unique perspective on Lindbergh's oft-criticized WWII neutralitry stance. Newton's own participation in the Spirituality movement is especially fascinating. I can't wait for the PBS special!"
255413,2,Pearl who???,"When STP's debut cd, Core, made it to the big time, music critics dogged them on how much they sounded like Pearl Jam. Well, after listening to Purple, I think the critics will shut up. This is a great album, a much different twist and more dimensions than Core. If you like 90's hard rock, this is an album you definitely need to pick up. The outstanding songs are Unglued, Interstate Love Song, Big Empty, and Vasoline."
255640,2,Worked for me,Despite some of the reviews saying this cable would not work on some tv's I took the very little risk and went ahead and bought this cable since it was one of the cheapest. It worked fine on my Panasonic plasma.
255701,2,Baking 101,"I am a pretty good cook, but have never been much of a baker. But now, with this cook book (and her first one), I am fooling everyone into thinking I am a pro! Everything I have made from this cookbook has been easy (the second most important criteria...the first one being CHOCOLATE!)and delicious. I hate to share my secret, but I am giving this book to my daughters-in-law for Christmas."
255790,2,Memoir,A heart-felt memoir that could only be written by someone who has experienced this painful journey. My mother died of Alzheimer's and this book helped me with my healing. Thank you Sue Miller.
255867,2,elva's barefoot heart,"i was amazed. i cried. it is so sad. i believe that we all kids should read this book. it gives us ideas about how different lives people have. the book, batefoot heart shows how rough migrant life Elva and her family had. while her family moved back and forth to the minesota and wisconsin beat fields, her family never had nice house and enough food. novertheless, her family never gave up their future and dream. elva studied hard and got her dream came ture. she successfuly graduated form Standford university and got a job in IBM. however, she realized that she has an empty heart. later on, i tried to find her traces, her migrant childhood and she found her barefoot heart."
255878,2,very fun read,"I really enjoyed reading this book, and I plan to get the first one to see how it all started. The character is very interesting, overall I found the mystery to be somewhat weak, but the character developement and the pace of the story still made it a very enjoyable and worthwhile read. I would definately recomend it."
255981,2,everything you need,"So far this is the best gardening book that covers Texas. Not the south central area, or gardening in general, or growing ""zones"", but the unique growing areas in Texas. Now you can select what thrives here and what doesn't. If gardening is your hobby and you want to work at it all the time, or, you would rather have a garden that requires the least amount of work, this book is for you.Texas Gardening is well laid out and indexed well. Any information you need is quick and easy to find. All in all, this will be your ""go to"" reference for practical information on what grows well in Texas, and what is required to grow it."
256016,2,Wouldn't Want to Be Them!,"I found this book enlightening, easy-to-read, and quick to finish. It starts off with Henry as quite the affable young man, and even handsome. He is a catch for any lady, especially Princess Catherine, his first wife, but all of that changes as the years progress and he becomes more and more paranoid. In fact, as the book went on I found myself wondering why no one ever tried to assassinate him. He was a threat to powerful nobles, to his wives, to former friends... I felt terribly sorry for all of his wives, but especially Catherine."
256024,2,The Best Cookbook Ever!!,I am a collector of cookbooks and found Savor the Moment to be the best one I have. I must have over 500 books. The recipes are wonderful and the photo's are beautiful. I found this book easy to read and follow. The CD Rom version is beautiful as well.Thank you.
256026,2,Great product!,"Don't get scared when you look at the price of this product. It is $200 but it is well worth your money. With TiVo, you are able to rewind, pause or stop live television.

256088,2,A view at a world most of us don't see.,"Although the writing is not the most polished this book has a lot of information that will be new to the neophyte espionage readers and even manages to sneak in a few things that are very good for every day life that most of us either don't know or ignore. It is written from a very personal point of view, as if the author was just sitting in your living room and was an acquaintance. The problem I find with that is that most people, including myself, will take anything someone we don't really know with a grain of salt and this takes away from the book; there's a point in the book where you begin to doubt the veracity of it. Most of the non-espionage claims can be authenticated easily enough but there's a lingering doubt as to the participation of the author in these events the way he described it. The book is worth reading."
256237,2,Don't let the circus theme fool you...,"First of all I LOVE this book. I have had this in my TBR pile for some time now and I always put it back because I thought the circus theme would be too weird for me to enjoy. Well I was wrong, it took me a little to get used to but of course SEP pulled it off. Daisy is a sentimental sweet person with a big heart, and Alex is sweet but very guarded and pushes away Daisy from the beginning. He doesn't think she will last long with all the hard work but she surprises him and she pushes herself to prove not only to herself but to others that she can do it. I especially love the ending!"
256261,2,Fast moving entertainment,"OK... my brother hates time travel stories, but I have this thing where I really dislike stories about charactors from the ""real world"" falling into another hidden world somehow magically connected to our world. Zelanzy did it up fine in the Amber books and that's just enough for me. It's basically an authors strategy for introducting a fantasy world. Generally I prefer the novelist to plunge full into the world building and have the whole fantasy tale take place in the imagined world. None of the cross over business.I picked this book up on the nice review from the SciFi web site, and I'm glad I did. It's a fun and fast moving entertainment and I am greatly looking forward to reading the rest of the series. I still have my bias about crossover books, but I found this book so engaging that my bias has been suspended this time. Recommended."
256263,2,Worth the Money,"I've only had it for a few days but something tells me that this water level control switch will keep on ticking for a long time to come given that it is a solid state device and no mechanical mechanism to fail me. In the last two years, I've exhausted two float switches that came with the sump pump. The original lasted about a year and thinking maybe it was the freak of the draw, I replaced it with another from the manufacturer only to have it fail again in about another year. They were both mechanical float switches. This thing uses only a single wire to detect water level. What could possibly go wrong short of a surge in my electrical line? Get it, it's well worth it even if it's a bit over-priced."
256272,2,Movie,First watched it on TV and enjoyed it. It is a show of adventure and thrills and I will continue to watch it many more times. I first read the story for my own enjoyment and also in school. Movie and book are different and that makes itfun and sometimes you end up reading book again just to see how different.
256313,2,"A light-hearted, fun survey of the scientist's motivation results","What drives over 25,000 inventors to Nevada's desert for the annual Burning Man festival - and why do inventors build fantastic machines in their garages from scraps? ADVENTURES FROM THE TECHNOLOGY UNDERGROUND covers the art of making catapults, pulsejets, flamethrowers, Tesla coils and robots, and comes from a professional engineer who interviews his fellow pros in an effort to find out what drives them to create such devices. A light-hearted, fun survey of the scientist's motivation results.Diane C. Donovan, EditorCalifornia Bookwatch"
256328,2,Excellent for working out in the gym or running!,"okay got this belt because I can't do the whole armband thing, it gets in the way during pressing and pulling movements in the gym and just doesnt feel right doing curls, enter the mp3 belt (I was a cd belt guy before as well), one size fits all. I don't even have an Ipod, I put my san disk mp3 player in here for the free weights, and zmate mp3 player (cheap free one i got) for running. If you have a small cellphone, it will also fit in the belt. There are two compartments, so you can hold extra batteries, id card, change, cell as stated, extra headphones, whatever. Totally reccommend this one for serious trainers."
256468,2,"Very good concept, poor build quality, excellent customer service","Arrived in very good time, works very well but feels really, really light (not in a good way)..."
256480,2,Great for the Price,I have had these for about a month and they work great. They are clear and crisp. They also appear to handle the abuse that I give them. These are great causal or starter binoculars and you can't beat the price. Only if you are a serious birdwatcher or have other special need should you consider going for anything more expensive.
256527,2,Nifty Product,"We needed this to make a catalog of products. It works great and I LOVE that it packs up nicely when not in use. Would purchase another one if I needed it. I agree that it would be nice if more background colors were included, but we all know it's easy enough to purchase fabric ourselves. :)"
256574,2,cannon camera backpack,really liked the one i bought for my self so i bought one for my daughter. really like that you can get to all your camera needs by opening one compartment
256586,2,Overall Good,"The backpack came quickly from the online store. Overall, the backpack is very good and sturdy. It is much better than the Canon hand bag that I was used to. I just used the new bag on a trip to florida and it made the trip much better..Pros and Cons:Pros- sturdy- light- holds alot of equipment- everything easily accessableCons- Straps across belly and chest should be detachable (very uncomfortable)- More padding needed for top where camera sits- Velcro needed for tripod straps on bottom"
256603,2,Not rec'd yet..but soon,Bought for function as well as for looks and decor.Great Friday price of $15.Golda's in Canada sells it for $70....and not in the color I chose..Maine Blue.
256608,2,Iron Overload Bible,"This book is an awesome reference source for anyone with hemochromatosis or their family. I literally have referred to this book as a bible. Learn what this disease is, why you got it, how to treat it, and live with it."
256634,2,Everything is Coming up Roses,"I like Rosie. Her humour, her compassion, her philathropic values. She is a great woman - or so she presents herself to be - inside and out. This book 'Everything Rosie' is a biography and anecdotal book about the life of the actress/comedian Rosie O'Donnell. From the death of her mother at the mere age of 10, her talk show and to when she first became a mother to Parker.This a great book for fans to learn a little bit more about Rosie and where she comes from. You understand her a little bit better at the end of the book and admire her that much more.The book is written in different formats, using song exceprts, AOL snippets and show by show guest lists.Recommended for the fan by a fan . . . not for someone who does not enjoy Rosie O'Donnell"
256721,2,Does the job,"I bought this for my Canon EOS 40D. The cable is a little short which is fine for me, but if you need some distance from the camera you'll need the extension cable or a wireless remote instead.The button responds well and slides up into a detent to allow for prolonged exposures (bulb setting) without having to hold the button yourself. Unfortunately, it does this so easily I'm always getting the button stuck down without realizing it. Since I bought this for astrophotography, I just have to remember this so when I try to set up the next shot I'm not fumbling around with the camera trying to figure out why it's not working!"
256728,2,"Attractive, but not terribly flexible","The neck strap is very attractive, but the plastic coating over the metal makes the strap less flexible, hence it's more challenging to quickly stuff it into a small digital camera case."
256764,2,It's The Brick,"This is the nicest standard zoom lens you'll find. It's sharp, high-contrast, and low aberration at nearly all zoom levels and apertures. If you're going to step your toes into Canon's L line, this is the place to start. Giving you five standard focal lengths (24, 28, 35, 50, and 70 mm) this lens is an ideal high-quality everyday lens. Further, the quiet USM autofocuses nearly instantly, and the full-time manual focus ring rotates like butter.If I had to pick one problem with this, it would be the weight. At about 2.5lbs, it's surprisingly heavy, especially when you've been wielding it for several hours. Also, it's immense size grabs the attention of strangers, which depending on what you're doing, could be problematic.But in the end, when what I'm doing demands high quality and versatility, this is the lens I rely on. It is the standard-zoom staple of my travel pack, and if limited to only what's attached to the camera, this is the lens that comes."
256911,2,I love it!,I went to go see Richie Righteous in Baltimore Maryland many years ago. I brought this CD at that show but my oldest son took it with him to Michigan. I had to get another one.
256946,2,BEST BAD MOVIES EVER!,"this package of Plan 9/ Robot Monster is GREAT!Excellently transferred to DVD. The added bonus of the documentary of ""Plan 9 From Outer Space"", is fascinating. See Ed Wood directing in rare film clips.""Plan 9""(I guess the first 8 failed) is very fun , and amazingly inept. But Wood, bless his big heart, was sincere and honest, and a bit naive......and the result is one of history's most hilariously bad movies, ever. But very entertaining.As far as ""Robot Monster"" goes......you have to see the hairy beast with the diving-helmet with the TV antennae and the soap bubbles and the flavin........he just wiped out all of the entire race except for a few survivors, who just happen to live a few yards from his cave.yes, the acting, script,and special effects stink, but at least the direction is horrible! this movie is hilarious, and very entertaining.So.....a great double feature for you big kids out there!"
256960,2,Great camera for an amateur,"I bought this camera when the SD300 4.0 MP came out. I was debating between the two and found more reasons to buy this one over the other.1.)Larger LCD screen (trust me, it's MUCH better to be able to see your pictures more clearly without squinting)2.)It was much slimmer and lighter3.)It costed $100 lessSo why settle for something more when all you want is to take nice, decent pictures? If you're going professional you should look at the S series. But if you want a camera you could carry around (in your shirt pocket!)just to hang out with friends or go on a vacation without having to lugg all this equipment with you, this is the perfect camera. I've had it for about 6 months now (I even dropped it once =I) and it's working perfectly.The only drawback is the little flash circles it makes whenever I take a picture while others are flashing. I don't know if that should be a problem.Otherwise, it's the darnest thing!"
256979,2,Great sequel,"Nidemon being the middle book in the trilogy, was a great sequay from the 1st book. The story line is consist with the first and even though I got is a year or two after the first, all I had to do was reread the last two chapters of the first to get up to date. Very enjoyable and I look forward to the 3rd book."
256996,2,Fast and Timely,The book arrived in great condition and in a very timely manner. I would purchase from this seller in the future.
257035,2,UK Dirty Dozen,"One big star, a few lesser knowns and a bunch of who are they. Compared to the Dirty Dozen, it doesn't have the star power. However, it is a pretty good yarn seen from the Brit side of WWII."
257059,2,Great reissue,"These Alexis Korner reissues are are quite magnificent. The title of the collection ""The Godfather of British Blues"" tells you some of what to expect but not everything.The original recordings (the first 12 tracks) date from 1963 and although there is a lot of blues on here the list of musicians should tell you that you're going to hear more than just a set of standard blues tunes. As well Korner theres Dick Heckstall-Smith Johnny Parker, Art Theman and Phil Seaman. So there is a quite a big Jazz influence as well. Evidence of this Jazz influence is there from the first track 'Blue Mink', which was inspired by Thelonius Monk's 'Blue Monk'. This shouldn't put you off though, as overall this is a marvellous set of mainly blues inspired tunes.The six bonus tracks are an interesting mix, which overall are probably slightly more commercial than the main album itself."
257157,2,"A classic mix, still holding up today.","This is one of the few GU's from 1999-2002 that is not sounding dated. Play it today, and it will keep you groovin' to classic trance/prog. house selections.For some reason it's not available anymore new on Amazon, so some of the GU's may finally be going out of print. Get your copy now, as this one still has years of play life left in it."
257162,2,"i have a lot these songs already, but.....................................","i bought this on sale at estba uyba gambling TALK TALK would be in stereo.it was! quick breakdown: mono/ 1,2,7,8,13,16. stereo/3,4,5,6,9,10,11,12,14,15.trk 6: PSYCHOTIC REACTION is the FAKE STEREO version that's been around for decades. I LOVE YOU by PEOPLE is mono but is panned mostly to the left channel, should be centered. SURFIN' BIRD reminds me so much of the RAMONES.i'm glad to have it in collection now. ARE YOU A BOY OR ARE YOU A GIRL is excellent quality. the only other cd i have of the song was mastered from noisy vinyl. all together ain't bad!"
257214,2,Phil Lynott,A great read but sad story.Many Irish mammies suffered so much back then. It took a lot of strength to survive such pain and suffering.
257223,2,heavy duty,Nice heavy duty extension cord at a very decent price. You could normally expect to pay considerably more for this gauge and length. Haven't had it long enough to comment on durability but it appears to be well made.The lighted end is handy to let you know if you remembered to plug it in when you are 100 feet away from the other end.
257233,2,Thrilled with these!,"These are beautiful and practical. I don't know as though I would want to can with them, but for my purpose which is making water kefir and kombucha they are exactly what I needed. Thanks to Amazon Prime they were here in less than 48 hours (I'm so spoiled by Prime) and there was no breakage as I have seen in other reviews. I couldn't be happier."
257234,2,Milk Bottles,Great bottles. Good quality and beautiful.I bought them to put our fresh goats milk in.Much easier to handle than regular quart canningjars and I like the one piece lid.
257248,2,"Ample size, not so great seal on spout.","Ample size, not so great seal on spout. The plastic threading left room for improvement. I played with it a little and was able to make it work. FAST shipping!"
257320,2,"Not for everyone, but good for me.","Pretty cool show. I can see why it was canceled so quickly. Not for the squeamish; it holds a magnifying glass to the freak culture in typical 'disinformation' style. Topics range from the MK Ultra conspiracy, to talking plants, to the trans-sexual revolution, to white trash abuse with 'uncle goddamn'. They interview lots of artists and musicians, and most of them are pretty far 'out there', but it's interesting. This isn't something you buy for your grandma or show to your kids, but it has some definite re-watch value for it's target demographic."
257331,2,I'm biased. this has always been one of my all time favorites,"this here is guy flick, women invited of course, however, this film captures the wanderlust of men. and the negative consequences of that wanderlust."
257336,2,Preachy but good,"I really enjoyed this when I saw this back in 1973. I bought it on VHS and DVD recently. As a living history (re-enactor if you will) person, I enjoy films like this. I find it on the edge of being a 'message' movie just on the border with entertainment. I really like the in-depth mind probe of the film based on ""Liver-eatin' Johnston"" a real life mountain man. It was also pretty authentic. Suprising for a film on the end of the 60's."
257361,2,Terrific in tough situations,"I carried this camera in my pants pocket while climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa. It survived several falls onto lava, tropical weather at the bottom, frigid glacial weather at the top (19,344 feet above sea level), and worked flawlessly without complaint. Battery life was much better than expected. I was truly impressed with its ruggedness, and thrilled with the pictures. I'll post one of sunrise over Mawenzi Peak."
257400,2,"Sleaze, but heartfelt","A great piece of insight into the trappings of the Dream factory, from the golden age of the silents til the Manson nightmare."
257443,2,Worth reading,"This was my first Michener read, and I must say it was worth it. Though the book didn't take me by surprise when it came to the mindsets of the youth in the swinging sixties and seventies, it did leave me feeling a bit more educated about European and African culture and history. Also, what interested me was Michener's varying views of the future conveyed through his characters - there is more than a mention about the racial oppression suffered by the blacks in Africa, and hope that things would be much better thirty years hence - in other words, now. It made me think, and I don't think much has changed on that front. Drugs were as much a problem then as they are now, and I don't think any sensible individual would subscribe to the supposedly progressive views of the Swedish couple in Marrakech. On the whole, if you are looking for some food for thought apart from some good prose, pick this book up....your mind will tell you it's more than a sandwich from your local deli."
257452,2,Slinging some Inspiration!,"I felt this movie really speaks to what many different people may be facing in their lives at different levels. It reveals twists that open up in two ways - to renewed opportunity and bigger challenges (Giants in this case!) to face. Albeit the Giants here are football ones, but still giant football teams are pretty scary, lol. Seriously though, this movie faces the viewer with both the fears of failure and of success in a more subtle way. It makes for great family and friends viewing.To me, it went a little deeper than their previous movie FlyWheel - also a favorite of mine - but didn't maintain quite the same element of simplicity. I like them both about equally."
257467,2,One of the best movies I have ever seen.,This movie brought tears to me and my wifes eyes.I don't cry to much at movies but this one I could'nt hold back the tears.My mom not a football movie watcher but she ran out and bought the movie after seeing it.
257478,2,Peerfect,Great quality design and craftmanship feels good to the touch and looks amazing on gives impression of much more expensive piece
257566,2,Believe In Me is a great movie!,Loved this movie. Good performances and heartfelt drama make this true story a can't-miss sports movie for everyone! See it!
257575,2,DK-1209 labels,I've been using these labels for 3 years and have been buying from amazon. Never had any problem.
257587,2,Cocaine Cowboys,"Authenic, very interesting documentary about the cocaine smuggling in Miami in the 70 and 80.Music by the Miami Vice composer, and interviews with the smugglers, police, the news casters, the killersIn short the people involved.I recommend this movie strongly!"
257590,2,Great pitcher,"Great product. Its mixer adds to its greatness. Perfect for iced tea, juice, and Kool-Aid."
257755,2,Ice cream bowls,The products I ordered where just as described and received undamaged.The arrived in a timely manner as well.
257760,2,Stove covers,"Fast delivery. I have looked all over for black stove covers. I am glad I found theses. I bought 2 set, incase someone forgets to remove them before turning the stove on again . They are really nice shinny well made covers ."
257782,2,Very classy and comfortable,"Wearing these shoes made me feel like a modern day Cinderella. They're actually more silver than gold, but they still look great. The picture makes the sheen look golder than it is in person. It's like a silver sequin material with gold stitching through out. Still very classy heels, great height yet still comfortable."
257792,2,Laugh Out Loud,"This book had me cracking up. I loved it! I'm not very up on Indian culture, so this was a funny, interesting dive into it! I love her ironic, sarcastic, page-turner style of writing. I finished it in a couple of hours, cracking up with a plate of cookies. Perhaps curry would have been more appropiate!"
257830,2,Excellent Knife,I heard a lot of good things about this knife and SOG products and they are all true. Tough knife that follows me wherever I go in the woods.
257840,2,Who's that fat b@stard?,"Alexei Sayle has always been someone that I've enjoyed watching on television. His rants on his own television series were brilliant, and his characters on The Young Ones could sometimes be quite brilliant, but every now and then he gets on a tangent and it seems only he really knows what he's on about.I read this complete book last night, so it could be considered light reading. At the same time, for the full four hours I was reading it, I never put it down. It's a collection of short stories, and I would say that only one of them failed to make an impression on me, called ""Nic and Tob"", a satire of the sad lives of so called comedy greats Vic and Bob.The rest of the stories were either funny, very touching, or sometimes quite scary.Not the most incredible thing I've ever read, but a nice read all the same. I'd like to see more from Alexei Sayle."
257844,2,Chrome: SpecForce- Chrome 1.5 :),"Well, I played the first Chrome and beat it, and then obtained a copy of SpecForce. I had read online that this game was not that great and etc, but I found it to be the opposite. The engine received some minor tweaks from Chrome 1 and it shows. The AI is about the same, and the levels are about the same. The outdoor levels are absolutely spectacular and large, and again, the indoor levels are kind of bland. There are a few more vehicles to be had and the boss fights are INSANE in this game. I speak from playing on the highest difficulty only of course :p I really enjoyed this game, much better than the first Chrome even (though its just an expansion). I am very earnest to see how Chrome 2 comes out. Something about 200+ weapons just fascinates me."
257883,2,Great Buy,After personally trying a number of ellypticals at a number of sporting good stores my wife tried this one out at one of the big chains and really liked it. After trying it out myself I was surprised at how much more stable and smooth it performed compared to machines costing $300.00 or more. I went on line and found a number of favorable reviews and also noticed that amazon sold this machine for a great price and offered free shipping. Since there was no tax it was about $100 cheaper to buy on line! It was a bit complex to assemble but nothing dramatic. For the price and quality you can't beat it. We have been using it for about one month and really love it. I like the fact that it is easy to move and not too large. My only wish is that the display would have a back light but that's just a minor detail compared to the performance so far!
257952,2,Not noisy!! Great watch.,"Put the watch next to your ear and, as you might expect, you will hear it. Move it 8-10 inches from your ear, and you will not hear it (apparently excepting those with extraordinary hearing or sensitivity). This is an attractive, light, and practical [day and time, glow-in-the dark hands and marker] timepiece. Amazon's price even beats Kohls with 33% off plus 15% pick-a-day."
257959,2,Funny but slim,"Bill is a funny guy but if you laid this thing out like a regular book, skipping all the pictures and white space, it'd probably be about 40 pages. Of course, his 40 pages outshine alot of people's 200 or 300 pages..."
258013,2,Love this ring,"My husband bought me this ring 3 yrs ago to go with my wedding band. I wanted something different big pretty but not pricey or cheap looking. Love my ring am a nurse and very hard on my jewelry. This ring takes a beating and holds up well. The stone as come out once while I was moving boxes. I hit it just right and felt it ""pop"". No trouble getting it back it and never has come out since. I get lots of compliments too in fact a co worker bought a simlar ring because she liked mine so much. If you want big and pretty this ring is for you."
258029,2,If you want history and great recipes........,"This was my first Jessica Harris cookbook, but I now own all of them. In the early 90's it was not so common to include history as precursor to a recipe, but it has always been her style. A great beginning cookbook which embraces the African Diaspora."
258042,2,A trip down memory lane...,"I bought this for my father for his 89th birthday. When I was a child, the whole family would gather around the TV to watch Bonanza together. My father is enjoying the collection."
258057,2,Great products for curl definition!,"I am African American and have long natural hair (no relaxer). My hair is VERY tightly coiled (e.i. KINKY!). These products, when used properly, will definitely define any type of curl pattern your hair may have. I bought the entire collection off of Avenue You in June 2006 and when I do not straighten my hair with my Maxiglide and want to go au natural, these products enhance my coily locks. Usually my hair is very frizzy, but the Deva Curl system eliminates that. I never knew my curls could be frizz-free. The B'Leave In and Angell are the BEST! No other products work like these. I highly recommend Deva Curl for ANY curly hair type!"
258061,2,dogs loved it,We have five weimaraners and they all loved this. the only problem was getting them to share it. thank you.
258075,2,My Wheaten Terrier loves this toy,"My wife and I have a six year old Wheaten terrier. He is an extremely playful dog, very high energy and has grown out of the puppy phase of totally destroying his toys.He absolutely LOVES this toy and will bring it to me on the sofa when he wants me to 'reload' his squirrels so that he can pull them out again. He will also drag the toy over to where he is laying on the floor so that he knows it is close by.If he was younger he might destroy this toy, but in two weeks or so of ownership the most he has done is nipped off one of the squirrels ears. Since replacement squirrels are available it's not much of a concern if he should lose or rip one up... you could really use any small stuffed toy, but the replacement squirrels are cheap and of course this toy comes with six, which is a lot for the price.This toy is worth every penny and absolutely our dogs favorite. The designers of this thing know exactly what to do to build a toy that entertains a dog."
258081,2,Adorable toy keeps my dog's attention.,"My dog loves her Ginormous Hide-A-Squirrel toy. It occupies her longer than most toys do because she keeps playing until she gets all of the ""squirrels"" out of the ""tree trunk."" Then she picks one squirrel out of the bunch to continue playing with. This is a great toy to stimulate a dog's problem-solving skills, especially if she must be left alone for a while. Do you suppose I can train her to put them all back inside the plush trunk? Maybe not. She still doesn't return her toys to her toybox!"
258082,2,Excellent lectionary resource,"One side-effect of the common lectionary used by Catholics, Episcopaleans, Lutheran, and various mainstream Protestant churches is the development of some excellent lectionary based resources. (A lectionary contains the Biblical readings for a given Sunday).This series of three volumes for the three year lectionary cycle (each year concentrates on a synoptic Gospel - Matthew, Mark or Luke) contains music, poetry, art, etc. that in some way reflect on the Scripture for a given Sunday. The volumes are carefully multicultural.An example: for the first Sunday in Advent, there are poems by Philipp Nicolai with Carl P. Daw Jr, and Alberto Taule; a photo of a cross of the community by the artisans of La Palma, El Salvador; a responsory reading by Miriam Therese Winter; and a painting by Glen Strock.Each Sunday is equally diverse. You should always be able to find something that meets your needs and/or challenges you to reconsider your needs. Highly recommended."
258144,2,Moffatts in Chicago vs. the CD,"I just got back from seeing the Moffatts LIVE in Chicago (FRONT ROW BABY!) and I must say, they sound just as great live! Even better I'd say, since they put on a great show! Scott goes WILD! *laughs* He's a tease. Anyway, BUY THIS ALBUM! Every song rules! GO THE MOFFATTS! And what's better, they're totally nice in person since I met them! They atre down to earth and real, unlike some bands. THEY ROCK!Li"
258145,2,great cd...,"I like this CD a lot...yeah... Not my favorite but it's still a good CD. Many of the songs are catchy...some are a little on the cheesy side...but everyone's allowed a little cheese. And in response to the...person from Canada who said Hanson could never make an album this good...well...something tells me you haven't heard ""This Time Around"" which is has a wider variety of musical genres than ""Chapter 1..."" but still...both are great albums."
258185,2,ANOTHER GREAT MUSICAL,"This has to be the best musical in year's , of course it's dark and doomy like every other Tim Burton film , the acting is wonderful , the singing is great , great story , great film , highly recommended."
258216,2,Great 6 seater,"Bought this bench for use by the soccer team - so great~ folds down to such a small space, and all subs are able to sit on the bench and actually watch the action. Highly recommended! Comes in lots of colors to support the team!"
258232,2,Juiced 2 HIN Review,I love this game. Anyone and Everyone Should play this game. It was in perfect condition when I recieved it. Thanks very much.
258237,2,Lincoln's not who you think,"Lincoln was a true dictator. He abused his power as president and is brought to light in this book. From the very beginning Lincoln had his own agenda and wouldn't let anyone step in his way, even if it meant locking up influential people in Maryland, thus overstepping his bounds as a president. Lincoln is put in the same ballpark as Clinton in his lies. Lincoln said just after taking his oath ""I declare that I have no intention, directly or indirectly, to interfere with slavery in the states where it exists."" Lier, dictator and even his wife couldn't stand him most of the time. Great book. I highly recommend it."
258332,2,Detto Move2Mac USB Review,"Ok, well I read all the reviews, most of which were not so great, but I decided to go ahead and try it anyway. The software worked great. Was it perfect? No. Did it save me a big headache and a lot of time? Yes. I would recommend this software to someone switching to a Mac. I guess I had a lot of data to move because it did take 5 hours or more for the process to be complete. It does not move your e-mail nor does it put your favorites where they belong. They are on the Mac but not in the right spot. You have to transfer that by hand. I have also read that you can not use the software more than once, so keep that in mind. I am happy with the outcome!"
258358,2,The BEST Bible based movie,"So often I find Bible based movies have their heart in the right place, but are either not very well acted, or are over-acted. This is the exception. The casting was terrific, from Mary and Joseph and her family, down to King Herod and the Magi. (In a lifetime of watching and enjoying movies, this is the first time I've written down the names of the casting personnel, hoping to write them and compliment them.) It's rare to see a movie that gives you ""goose bumps"" one minute and has your eyes filling up the next. A subdued but stirring soundtrack is the icing on the cake. Very highly recommended."
258367,2,Great shoes for those who like low-cut basketball shoes,"I had actually came across these shoes a couple of years ago when they were on clearance somewhere and bought them. I have sensitive feet and these shoes provided ample cushion, support, and traction. I have used them for indoor basketball, soccer, and volleyball and absolutely love these shoes. They are angled slightly inward so when you land a jump you are less prone to roll your ankle, which is one of my major problems. They have lasted a long time and served me well, so last month I bought another pair. I am still very satisfied.These shoes are great for those, like me, that need a shoe low-cut for sports. High or Mid cut shoes cut into my ankles when I make quick cuts or moves on the court. These shoes do not do that. I recommend them."
258384,2,Wonderful soundtrack wonderful movie!,"I love this movie. I wish it was still on the cinema. These songs are genius. Danny Elfman you've done it again. Tim Burton helped a bit too. Victor is the heart and soul of the film and the soundtrack. Alas I do not have it, but maybe my dad will buy it for Christmas so My friend Claire and i can sing the songs all of the time!Victor's piano solo is wonderful. It's so sweet and from seeing the movie, very well presented too!"
258420,2,CHRISTMAS PRESENT,"THIS WAS A WONDERFUL GIFT FOR MY GRANDSON , AN EX MARINE , AND A KNIFE COLLECTOR. I ORDERED ANOTHER ONE THAT NEVER CAME . I HOPE YOU TOOK THE CHARGES OFF ...."
258451,2,MELVINS GOING FOR SOMETHING REALLY MAGICAL,"Some of the reviews for this cd are on the negative side and I just can't understand that. What can I say? I suppose you're not true Melvins fans. I love every track on this cd. I agree it's one of the most far-fetched albums The Melvins have recorded, but The Melvins have been a far-fetched band from the get go. If you enjoy listening to this band at all, pick this one up, it has everything, darkness, simplicity, soft, heavy and even folk. King Buzzo is on top of his writing efforts with songs like The Bit, Bar-X-The Rocking M, Tipping The Lion, and Captain Pungent. It is definitely one of my favorite offerings by The Melvins...Enjoy!"
258504,2,The best (los mejores),"Entiendo que a la gente de Puerto Rico, Los Angeles o Miami no les guste los Van Van. Pero menos mal que los Van Van existen y no tenemos que soportar unicamente a gente como Marc Anthony y Victor Manuelle, con unas letras aburridas y una musica muy inferior."
258520,2,I liked it,"Ok so it's not exactly early 80's Megadeth, but give Dave a break. At least this disk isn't as dismal and pointless as that St. Anger album released by his old bandmates. Anthrax, Slayer, and Megadeth are staying true to metal, while Metallica gets the most press and attention with the crappiest music.The System has failed is not a perfect album and it will not be my favorite Megadeth album, but I think Dave has a lot to be proud of. I think it's great to have Cris Poland back in the band. I missed him after 'Peace Sells'. His sound brought a little bit of a throwback sound to the band. It's weird to see a Megadeth album without Dave Jr. (on bass), but Megadeth carried on nonetheless.Listen to this CD two or three times and I think it will grow on you. Sure it's got some weird stuff on it like 'Shadow of Deth', but I appreciate what he was trying to do.Rock on Megadeth."
258542,2,Cheap insurance for your filter,"Check out my other review for the K&N filter. I use this about once a year to maintain my filter. First I hose off the filter, shake the excess water off, then I apply the cleaning agent, and rinse and let dry overnight (or a few hrs in hot sun). DO NOT over oil your filter and you will get many years of use out of it. As they say a little goes a long way. Im going on 4+ years now for my kit."
258566,2,Works but took some effort,"We're using this on an U-versebox, a Panasonic home theater system (surround and DVD's), and have one extra eye. The eyes and main unit do exactly what they're supposed to, when they are supposed to. For some reason, it doesn't always work. We have to hit a button a few times. The eyes don't stick to the fronts of the devices. We put them on with scotch tape. Finally, the base unit has to be turned on after all other devices or it doesn't work as well."
258582,2,Great phone,A great phone for a gift. Super stylish for a girl and has a really easy menu to use. The only thing is that it requires some time to get used to the touch screen as it is a bit less sensitive than the other touch screen phones e.g iphone
258597,2,This book is incredible!,"As a former student of Mr. Newton, I know he truly has a grasp on life and happiness. This book is a map to a happy and successful life. If you could use a pick me up or if you want to get all you can out of life, you must read this book! I am getting it for my friends for Christmas. Greg Hankerson"
258623,2,A Great game!!,"Rifts is a game which encompasses sci-fi/horror/dark future elements as a whole.The rules are comprehensive in the sense they are very easy to grasp and understand.The slight drawback is character creation,which is by far longer than most RPG's,but the end result are some tough,well defined characters.There are over 30 classes which are called O.C.C's(occupational character classes) and some R.C.C's(racial character classes) in which to choose.The magic and psionic systems are simple and yet flexible without complication to use.Combat is easy and flows quick and flawless.Overall,there is nothing complicated to rifts,and the setting is awesome.I will always recommend this game due that it is one incredible and fun experience.Don't pass it up.So if your looking for a game which has no limits to the adventure which can unfold,and something completely different and incredible,rifts is for you.I will always love this game."
258673,2,one of the best on vinyl,"this album is absolutley amazing on vinyl, i would highly suggest anyone who purchases this to buy it on vinyl, you can here every movement of the guitar, it is just great just great I say."
258717,2,pass your board exam!,"I really loved this book! it was a great tool to help pass my board exam (ACP/social work), i studied it faithfully and didn't even bother studying the DSM IV manual. this book is well written and VERY easy to comprehend difficult diagnosis. i recommend it strongly if you are entering the psychiatric field and you are not a psychiatrist!"
258787,2,FANTASTIC GOURD ART BOOK,"WONDERFULLY INSPIRING BOOK - I just LOVED it - have studied all the examples and will use them to try my own carvings and paintings on Aussie gourds.THANKS for writing the book.Melody Haskins (Downunder, in Australia)"
258804,2,Amusing Handbook to Desert Dish,"Expensive for a softcover book with only B&W; stock photos, but still a fun resource guide for Desert afficianadoes. Not-too-dishy gossip about some of the celebs and celeb wannabe's who have had residency in Palm Springs, California...both past and present.Author Johns obviously had some fun researching and writing this prosaic ""Map to the Stars Homes"" manual. Especially fun if you are a frequent visitor to the area or are planning a vacation there."
258818,2,An undertaking of courage,"When the hollywood movie industry and America in general is trying to appease the Chinese government for economic gains, it took a lot of courage to take this subject on and make the movie. It's very commendable of Scorcese. No wonder Hollywood spurned it at the Oscars. At the very least there is a lot of unique, stunning, and ground breaking style and imagery in the movie that the subject brought out. But then this movie isn't for everyone. I've been in interested in Tibet since I was very young and I don't think this movie was intended to be a history lesson, but rather a tribute and representation of a unique spiritual life. The Dalai Lama is an inspirational human being and leader and it's great to see a movie on it that just has tibetan actors. It is hard to compare the real Dalai Lama with the young character in the movie, but one has to realize the burden on young shoulders of having to choose the method of saving his country and people."
258844,2,A delightful film reminiscent of the musicals of the '40s.,"Set in 1939 London, the film follows Guinevere Pettigrew (Frances McDormand), a recently unemployed governess as she responds to an ad for work as a ""social secretary"" and into the glamorous show business world of American actress and singer Delysia Lafosse (Amy Adams). In the film, the often silly actress and the frumpy governess form an (often comic) bond. In the end, they discover that they need each other much more than either one could have expected.The art direction and nice musical score make this a delightful film reminiscent of the musicals of the '40s. The pivotal moment of Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day occurs when Delysia sings ""If I Didn't Care"" in a 1939 London nightclub. The seemingly glamorous, emotionally calculating American movie star is overcome in this moment of truth and still does a swell job with the tune made famous by the Ink Spots."
258857,2,5 Stars,"Very pleased with this order. Everything was exceptional. Fast shipping, quality packaging and good price. I am happy with my purchase, 5 out of 5 stars. :)"
258894,2,no way!,I started p90x two days ago and I can tell you that it is an awesome workout I know I'm not doing exactly what their doing in the videos but clost to it since I'm not that flexable and I can already feel in my clest and arms that I'm working twords something amazing! You definitly have to atleast give yourself a chance and try it.... Ill edit my post when I'm at thirty days sixty and 90! If you guys have any tips for me just comment on my review..
258912,2,Changed my life,"One of the hardest things I have ever done in my life. The first two weeks were difficult, but after that you find yourself wanting to do the exercises. The hardest workout I thought was yoga. After 90 days I saw great results and dropped 18 pounds."
258980,2,mas57,Great selections of Dorsey songs yet the recording quality is not as full ranged as the newer CDs.
259041,2,A Personal Voice,"What I liked most about this book was Segovia's own personal voice showing through. It is, indeed, a very subjective self-portrait that romanticizes just about everything, but that's what I like about Segovia and the music he played! The book is about his life viewed through his own eyes and I appreciated the intimacy opened up to me. There are other works out there about Segovia that are more erudite, accurate, and objective but there's a real pleasure in reading this one."
259048,2,couldn't live without it,"My son has practically lived in this seat since birth, and it still has so much mileage left for it! He is only 2 months, and he'll be using this for so much longer. It is very versatile with the recline and kickstand. The toys aren't that great, and he gets bored with them, but they attach with velcro, so you can swap them with others. When he was first born, he loved looking at the zebra prints. I would recommend this chair instead of a bouncer chair, since you can use it for longer, and it essentially provides the same function. Vibration function is also nice."
259064,2,"Bach: Cantatas, Vol 11 (BWV 136, 138, 95, 46) /Bach Collegium Japan Suzuki","Bach: Cantatas, Vol 11 (BWV 136, 138, 95, 46) /Bach Collegium Japan Suzuki is a recording under the direction of Masaaki Suzuki who leads the Bach Collegium Japan on NEC and Lufthansa German Air recording from 1999. Being a huge fan of Bach listening to this amazing series of Bach recordings is true bliss and once more Suzuki has created an amazing recording. Peter Kooij is tremendous and his performance is truly astounding. Highly recommended. 5/5."
259076,2,Happy,I purchased this for a gift. I picked it from a wish list. It came in good condition and matched the description. The person I gave it to seemed pleased.
259167,2,Cold Steel Warrior Katana,"This item really lives up to it's video hype. It has so far, cut everything I have swung it at with little to no problem. I would definitely recommend this Battle ready Katana to anyone who needs a Zombie Apocalypse weapon!"
259183,2,Saw Horses,"These are great and heavy enough to work on. Didn't tip over when covered and chop saw added. When finished, simply fold in place. Simple."
259213,2,Fantastic!,"After 2 months of use I give this a thumbs up. I wish it were a little easier to push but I guess I need the exercise ;-)Even though it's plastic it feels durable, so we'll se if it can last at least up to it's 2 year warranty. The 30 foot cord is a blessing - I can do my entire house without unplugging it (it's only 1000 square feet (my guess is that it might be able to handle up to a 1200 (1400?) Sq Ft home provided you have an outlet that's in the middle of your house). This little vacuum gives the big ones a run for the money (I've had the pleasure of trying a Dyson before - rolls easier, had a couple attachments but for the price differential you could buy 10 of these...)."
259230,2,Magical,"Spectacular photography and production! Photo after photo takes you into the bullring, into the beauty and art of bullfighting. I love this book because the images are so surreal and yet so real and beautiful. The mystique of beloved España has never been so well captured, despite the fact that this book is an in-depth look at one part of the culture. My husband loves this book because it covers bullfighting so well, with a technical variety. But I have been seduced by the beauty alone. Essays complement the photography perfectly, and Ricardo Sanchez shines!"
259281,2,The best of his non-Bosch novels,"Maybe it's because Harry Bosch was Connelly's first creation that his writing always seems to rise to a higher level when he's focusing on Bosch. Maybe it's because I read his Bosch novels first. Either way, I thoroughly enjoyed this book, but I still can't help waiting for the next Bosch installment. This is a great book and if it were anyone else's novel, I'd probably give it 5 stars. Cassie Black is a strong character and I liked her and sympathized with her. It just doesn't matter to me if I don't see her in a sequel."
259339,2,Text books only go so far,"Text books can only bring you so far. Yet this book can get you the ""A"" you have been looking for. It has simple to understand knowledge with easy to interprete diagrams. A must have for any level-one high school Chemistry student. The only visible problem with this book is it lacks some detail, in the text, and visual maps."
259496,2,This is a great printer !,"When I received this printer, there was a single orange instruction page to set it up with very few words. It goes like this, put CD on computer and run install, remove tape and plug in toner cartridge, connect USB cable and power, add paper and print away. It could not be any easier. There is a warning to load the software before connecting the printer, simple enough.When I took the printer out of the box, I managed to drop it on its side about 2 feet off the ground on to a carpeted floor. No visible damage and something I did not expect, it is working perfectly!So far the printer has been flawless, the print is very sharp and the graphics are quite nice. Not a photo printer, but if that is what I wanted I would get a inkjet.Bottom Line: Great printer, Great output, Great price!"
259514,2,Great book,"Very informative book. Easy to read and understand. Covers herbs,oils,massage, aromatherapy, homeopathy, bach flowers. Pictures of massage techniques are very easy to understand and follow. The herb section tells you how to prepare and how much to give. The Bach flower section explains the use for the horse and the rider."
259546,2,THE runner's book for women new to the sport.,"The first time I tried to go running I was 17 and didn't know what I was doing. My friend and I ran for an hour, were terribly sore the next day, and that was the end of that. When I was 30 I picked up this book, and when I finished it I knew enough to start running and stay with it for 6 years until a knee injury stopped me.If you are an experienced runner, there are plenty of other specialty books and magazines that will be more interesting and fill in more detail, but if you have never run before, this is the book to start with, written from a woman's point of view. It will give you enough confidence and information to go out there and get started and see if this is the sport for you."
259570,2,The True Face of Harmonic Brilliance,"With this video, Take 6 shows you a side of the music industry that is very rare today: brilliantly versatile and influential sounds with a totally positive message. These six voices combine age-old spiritual passion with the complex artistry of modern jazz and pop music to create a purely angelic sound that would make the Almighty God Himself feel like dancing the night away. Truly a prized posession."
259580,2,Love Annette As Well,"I am going to order this dvd right now. I so agree about what a great instructor Annette is. No nonsense. I currently have her Perfect in 10 Stretch and I use yoga dvds now and loved her 10 minutes of yoga. Simplifies so well. Good job, Annette!"
259609,2,New Year's Eve Party Perfect!,"I made four recipes from this book, not previously tried, for NY Eve party that night. Lemon chicken turned out delectable, but when paired with her Satay Sauce to dip the chicken in, superb flavors married together! And her signature cupcake: buttermilk made the cake close to wedding cake consistency, with sweet, flaked coconut in the batter plus added to the cream cheese icing. I put them in Tulip papers from King Arthur Flour Co. and sprinkled good ""dust"" from Wilton over the coconut floating on the creaminess of the icing. They looked and tasted magical. Everything was a total Hit. Preparation was very easy and nearly every ingreient was easily available. My belief in Ina was confirmed by my virgin voyage with her recipes and suggestions, making each of us winners. I highly recommend this treasure."
259763,2,Off Da Chain!!,"If you wanted to know anything about this phenomenal human being then pick up this book! It is totally awesome! There are so many original items in it. It's a must-have for his true fans and those just getting turned on to 'Pac. There's his lawsuit against the OPD, pictures after getting beat, the handwritten contract signed while he was in jail on sexual assault... just a whole slew of personal artifacts from the man himself. It's a treasure and a timepiece that those who really loved him, must own."
259819,2,PRINTING WHILE ON THE ROAD,"AN EXCELLENT COMPACT, USER FRIENDLY AND LIGHT WEIGHT PRINTER. EASY TO SET UP, GOOD PRINTING QUALITY, AND MAC COMPATIBLE. A MUST HAVE FOR ROAD WARRIORS."
259845,2,JIM'S FINAL 24 HOURS,"THIS WAS ANOTHER GOOD PURCHASE I MADE. I REALLY LOVE HEARING OTHER PEOPLE'S OPINIONS ABOUT HOW & WHY JIM DIED,ESPECIALLY COMING FROM THE PEOPLE THAT WERE CLOSE TO HIM."
259862,2,A BOOK NOT TO MISS,"You might not expect this to be so good but, if you like knowing about other cultures, this is wonderful, Very well written by a woman who spent much of her life there, it is captivating and thought-provoking. It reads like a novel."
259872,2,wireless,"I bought 2 of these controllers for ps2. They are both working great. The do not have the rumble feature, but we dont miss it. they have great range and if there is a delay it has not been noticed. Much much better than other wireless controllers we have owned. the only complaint i have is they are harder to hold on to sometimes. i think its just a matter of getting used to the slightly diffrent design. I have never droped it during play, but sometime when i go to grab it , it slipps out of my hane. my 7 year old does not have the same problem."
259889,2,A GOOD MOVIE REVIEW,THIS MOVIE WAS FILMED VERY NICELY AND THE DIRECTING WAS WELL PLAYED. GLEN CLOSE WAS A GOOD REPRSENTATIVE OF THE SUBJECT LINE OF THIS FILM. THE MOVIE WAS ENJOYABLE.
259905,2,Life and Love of Dogs,"I thorough enjoyed reading Marley and Me. Josh Grogan has a warm engaging writing style and brings us into his family. He shares with us very tender moments and hilarious antics.I laughed outloud while reading this book and I am not one to do that. I also cried openly at times. If you are a dog lover, you will be able to relate to the stories of Marley.While Josh Grogan is the not the shining example of dog ownership and how to handle specific dog behavior problems, you can tell that he really did love his dog and usually had his best interest at heart. Although I must say I have to question his motives when he returns from Disneyworld and fails to rush to his beloved pets side as he is near death. I know from my personal experience that nothing could have kept me away from my dog at a time like that.All in all I would recommend this book as a quick read that that will bring enjoyment, laughs and tears."
259906,2,Great book for dog owners,"This book made me laugh out loud and cry - which is the first time a book has had that type of impact on me!I got my first dog two years ago, so I could absolutely relate to the stories in the book. It makes you realize and appreciate the bond between dogs and owners.I would recommend this book to all dog owners!"
259907,2,Excellent Read,"This was a great book, whether you like dogs or not. Warning...for those of you who love dogs and are pet owners, the ending is very sad and I almost couldn't finish the book even when I knew the inevitable was going to happen. It is much better than the movie, which leaves a lot of parts out that were more in depth in the book. Even if you've seen the movie, read the book to compare. You won't be disappointed."
259925,2,"For all the ""Bad Dogs"" out there & the people that love them.","John Grogan is an engaging writer and I loved the story but the book illustrates the short comings of traditional training methods still in use today. I'm a firm believer in clicker training which worked wonders for my 7 year old Mastiff/Greyhound mix who suffered from severe dog/dog aggression (see ""How to Behave so Your Dog Behaves"", ""Scaredy Dog"" and ""Click to Calm"" for clicker training info)."
259930,2,For every dog owner,"I just completed reading this book and the combination of words that Mr Grogan has used is just brilliant. Describing a dog in words is not possible, but Grogan does it. A dog means so much to every dog owner and Grogan has touched my heart. Best of luck, Marley!"
260008,2,Seiko Women's Strap Watch #SXGM10,"The Seiko Women's Strap Watch came with nearly all the features I like in a watch: clear numbers, minute divisions, a second hand, dual-toned metal, and a leather band. It is lovely in all regards but one: the face measures only 3/4 of an inch (just under 1.5 mm) across - for a dainty woman, this would be ideal; for the ""larger"" woman, it creates a somewhat amusing size contrast. When I misplace it around the house, my family jokes that it might be on my wrist, only I just can't see it."
260045,2,Consent to Kill-Vince Flynn,His best one yet! Mitch Rapp gets turned loose in this one. The bad guys get what's coming to them at home and abroad!
260119,2,I LOVE Aly&AJ!,"I LOVE Aly&AJ!They sound great live and on CD. They even write their own music and lyrics. They are great rolemodels, especially because they are Christian and do not dress inappropriately. They are also great actresses, and I think they have a lot of potential. Buy this DVD!"
260145,2,She loves it!,I got this for my girlfriend for Christmas and she absolutely loves it. So far I have not heard any complaints.
260146,2,love my curling iron,"I purchased this iron on a whim after using my girlfriends. I love and I am addicted to it. I must get the bigger one like the 2 or 3inch ones. The 1"" is just more time consuming but I got to say it makes great curls.."
260169,2,Spellbound,Spellbound Tanning Lotion is a great lotion. You tan fast and leaves your skin very smoothes. This is definetly my favorite lotion. Great price as well!
260225,2,The best book I've ever read!,"I got this book for Christmas in 1997 and I love it! I must've read it five times. At least. Maybe I'd better read it some more! Anyway, if you haven't read this book, you oughtta do so NOW! In fact, buy it, becuase trust me, you'll read it more than once. I love this book so much! Mercedes Lackey shows her true talent with Magic's Price."
260336,2,Best in music/song.,"Alison singing is outstanding.Th whole band is awesome, the best that can be. They are one of the better country western groups around."
260367,2,very informative,This book gives all the info you need to repaira trimmer and a leaf blower it is a great addition tomy repair library
260432,2,I stumbled in,"Val Emmich was not within the bounds of my music taste when it first played in my computer. The album was Slow Down Kid. As it started I feared I'd stumbled into one of those hip, trendy, emoish bands. But as I listened to the words, to the man himself, I was drawn in. Slow Down Kid brought me in.Sunlight Searchparty is even better. It might not be for everyone, but the lyrics are great and frequently clever. Some songs are of that heartbroken variety, but they don't feel trite. Teach Me and The Only One Lonely are both very well done. But my favorite tracks are At the Risk of Sounding, High Noon and New Year's Resolution. This is one of those rare CDs that I search out in my iPod for one track, then just leave it on this album from whatever track I start on.In an era of playlists, Sunlight Searchparty is an enthralling album."
260453,2,Ideal for being couped up in snowy weather....,"My part of the country has received lots of snow lately, so I cozied down for a long winter's read with Fleur de Leigh's Life of Crime- and let me tell you, it was a superb way to spend an afternoon!This focuses around- who else?- Fleur de Leigh, daughter of a radio personality with a big ego (Charmian, her mother) and a TV-game producer, her father. With reserved, distant- yet at times fun- parents, a perverted yet kind gardener, an odd cook, and a string of boisterous, comical, even sensual nannies (favorites being Bettina, Clover, and Glendora), this is a fun, laughter, tension, and party-filled read. Watch as Fleur gets admitted to Psychodrama, Charmian seduces a nanny's boyfriend, Fleur gets stuck in a police station, and many more comical times!Buy this book- trust me, you will NOT be disappointed!"
260483,2,Unknown Pleasures CD,The only thing that bothered me was that if you play the CD in your Car stereo the titles do not show as on many of my CDs. This must be due to the low quality of the copy or the fact that the copy wasn't done through licensed partner.For the rest the sound and songs are great.
260702,2,Pretty darned cool,"This isn't my favorite Date book by any means, but it does go into the finer details or Codd's work and it does so at a level that really does Codd's work justice.If you aren't really into Codd's work, and you are trying to find an intro to DB Theory, this definitely isn't for you. However, if you are looking for a great theoretical analysis of one of the greatest mind's in Computer Science, this is a great book."
260722,2,Happy Happy Customer !!,"I was Extremely happy with my Amazon.com purchace...The service was great...The Item I ordered arrived on time...It was packaged perfectly..I couldn't find this particular item in our small town of Brooking, Oregon, & I was sooo very happy I was able to Purchase it from Amazon....And it was only 1/4 of the price I paid before...Thank you Amazon, I will B back...Sincerely, Arlene Mary Jones, Brookings, Oregon."
260761,2,Another Filtercharger,"Vendor shipped quickly and it installed as it's supposed to. I have these in 5 of my 8 cars, the others having cold-air intakes, so I knew what to expect. From my somewhat extensive experience, I find that this K&N does nothing noticeable for performance or fuel economy. For these improvements, a cold-air intake is the way to go. I live in a dry dessert environment and keep my vehicles for a long time so I purchase these because they're washable and leave me confident that good filtration takes place."
260780,2,Great for the price,I have this dinnerware including serving pieces and bakeware in my home. This is a wonderful line of dinnerware which for the low price simply can't be beat. One reviewer points out that there are black circular marks in the color glazing. This is the antiquing on the plate which is normal. Dinner pieces such as plates and bowls are dishwasher and microwave safe. Bakeware such as casseroles are oven safe.
260880,2,Ouch,This unit is really nice. I just wish it came with someone to hold it. My wife is patient enough to do it for only a few minutes (and then expects reciprocation). I came up with a neat way to wedge it between my back and any chair. This is quite nice. The only problem is that I actually burned my back with the heat attachment! Only suggestion there is to wear a shirt when using the heat attachment :-)Enjoy!
260886,2,addictive,"The stories are well conceived and well written. The characters are interesting, appealing and well acted. There seems to be a fundamental difference between detective stories produced in England and those in the US. I think the characters are more restrained in the English productions."
260889,2,Interior Design Reference Manual: A Guide to the NCIDQ Exam,I think the book was helpful... it broke down the sections of design well and offered up just enough information about everything to be a good guide / refresher from the days I was in school.
260901,2,Relaxation Machine Clock Radio,Pretty good product. My son received this for Christmas and has used it every night to help him get to sleep. He especially likes the beach setting. He uses it for 15 minutes every night. He also is getting up very nicely to the buzzer alarm in the morning.
260914,2,kingston memory,"works fine with my HP printer ,before the printer always show a request for more memory after printing only one picture."
260947,2,Amor Eterno Entre Dos,Amo esta novela. Todos los actores hicieron un trabajo maravilloso. Deberian hacer novelas haci tan buenas. Es raro encontrar tanta quimica hoy en dia en novelas. Se la recomiendo a todos.
260955,2,"Beautiful Photo Album for your son/daughter, get the matching stuff!","I was so glad to receive this before my son gets here. This photo album holds lots of those ""first"" pictures, and I also bought the keepsake box and baby book as well, and all items are high quality and so cute!"
260977,2,I'm sold on Harry Harrison,"OK, I realize that the last two books in this series were written by someone other than the original author, Harry Harrison. But I do give him credit for the original idea that these books sprang from. I'm a sucker for alternate history stories, and this one is a good one. What makes it good is a fresh perspective--Vikings and English, rather than the Civil War, or Kennedy's assassination, or even the Roman Empire. I stumbled across an old Harry Harrison book in my personal library when I was looking for something to read, and was impressed by his mastery of writing. I am a Christian, and have always been aware of his anti-Christian bias (perhaps more anti-Church?), but that hasn't stopped me from enjoying these and other books by the old master.Harry, we hardly knew ye...."
261074,2,Great reference very Helpful,"Every graphic design student must have this book in their library it is a big help for any step in the design process that you may be in, from correct color to different folds it has it all."
261094,2,WONDERFUL!!!,"We had an Alpha Omega and didn't like it. Our son's head would hang and with his reflux, he'd spit up constantly from being so far forward (even in the farthest recline.We bought this seat and it's wonderful! Our son is very happy and content in it, spits up 90% less, and it looks so comfie.Highly recommended!"
261218,2,best introduction ever,This is hands down the best introductory book on nonstandard analysis. If you want to learn nonstandard analysis then you should start here.
261224,2,Great Shots and Video Excess.,"I've been using this camera on my travels as well as at home, and I love it. I'm a shutterbug and enjoy the point and click type cameras, but this camera lets my photographer roommate manually set just about everything he needs to when he's at the helm.My favorite part is the rediculous amount of video with sound that this baby can record with a 128meg memory stick. I get 90 minutes of video and audio on the one stick. Imagine when/if Sony comes out with 256 or 512MB sticks!"
261304,2,This little shaver......................,"works very well. I have not tried any others, so I cannot compare the Norelco to other similiar types of shavers. I have used this shaver 2X and have been very satisfied with the results. If your hair is thick it may take a while to get everything even, but you should have enough power to get the job done. This shaver works well in you ""private areas"" with little or no irritation. All in all its a good razor and I would recommend it to anyone. For the price, its a well worth investment."
261324,2,It Does What It Does,"This product does exactly what it claims to. It takes care of body hair where you don't want it, and it does so without irritation, rashes or ingrown hairs. I generally use this only on the back of the neck (cleanups between haircuts) and chest, and it's much better than a regualr razor: faster, more effective, safer. Definitely recommended!It gets four out of five because it's a little noisy and the battery (while long lasting) can only be charged when fully drained. However - I have dropped this numerous times in the shower, some of which cause the entire foil and cutting surfaces to become detached from the body of the groomer. I simply re-inserted them back, and it still worked perfectly. Very surprised at the resiliance of this product, and happy, too."
261472,2,The Best 60's Girl Group,"As a fan of Diana Ross and The Supremes, I purchased this import CD to add to my collection of which I personally feel this is one of their best efforts. You won't be dissapointed by the various musical selections so get this while it's still available. The sellers service and delivery are first class all the way. They get 5 Stars from this satisfied fan."
261528,2,Very Nice Product,This is really nice product which allows me to shoot non stop video for more than 3 hrs.
261551,2,Simple instructions on how to obtain meanful prayer,"Styled as a devotional that I read every night before I pray. Easy to understand, wonderful advice. I bought a copy for my whole family."
261635,2,Wow!!! What a GREAT exercise tool!!!!,"This is a GREAT exercise tool if you want to exercise your forearms, wrists, hands, and fingers. There are NO batteries, you can exercise while doing other things, and you are in complete control so you can exercise as intensely or as gently as you want. By switching back and forth, right side for a while, left side for a while, right, left, etc., you can exercise for as long as you want. What a great idea."
261636,2,Great wrist exerciser,"The Dynaflex works great, especially with the amount of time we spend on the computer. We need some type of exercise to help keep carpel tunnel syndrome away. It's also great for firming up your forearms as well."
261689,2,"Very entertaining, kept me wanting more","I must say that I really enjoyed this book. As an avid Stephen King fan, I have read all of his works. This one didn't waste any time getting my attention.From the beginning the story was fun and very current. I loved the references to the Red Sox, knowing what a big fan of them Stephen is. I kept wanting to know what was going to happen next, and throughout there was a nagging need to know what was going on. Questions that the book never answers and leaves wide open to your own imagination.Definitely not for the weak of stomach, as there is relentless gore and violence. It did reming me of stories like The Stand, and The Langoliers, but it's classic Stephen King through and through.Thank you Stephen for another fun read. I look forward to Lisey's Story in October."
261795,2,Great everyday knife,"This is the second Gerber product I bought. Both products exceeded my expectations. First off this knife is very light, almost all the weight is the blade and thats really the way an everyday carrying knife should be. The handle fits my hand well and seems study enough, would probably be stronger if thicker. The blade came sharp, but sharp is relative . Its not carbons steel so it wont stay sharp forever. Bottom line this knife is sturdy, feels like it can take some abuse, and at less than $20 if it breaks, you can always get another one."
261830,2,Great stuffed chipmunk,"Aurora 8"" stuffed chipmunk. Hunted all over for this little guy which is not available in stores or museums.It is being used as a fun toy, for an older child, as a joke. This adult fed and increased our local chipmunk population while visiting this summer for three weeks. Great stocking stuffer at a good price."
261842,2,On With the Story,"Book arrived safely and in good condition. Shipping was rapid, perhaps supernaturally so. I'm amazed and humbled."
261884,2,Perfect for Halloween,"I bought the size Medium (ages8-10) for my 10 year old son. He is on the shorter side and pretty much a beanpole. This costume was perfect for him. He loved it. He cared that it was comfortable and looked cool. I cared that it held up in the washing machine (but line dry). Only con was that the ties at the bottom of the legs were frayed and tangled prior to first time wearing the costume. It is not necessary to have them tied, but makes the costume look better. My son just made it work, but it was frustrating that they came like that. Overall, very happy with the costume itself (top, bottom and headpiece all good quality)."
261914,2,Totally exhausts AIDS as a social issue,This work has fully lifted the veil on AIDS. It has focused on the various dimensions in which mankind has had to cope with a disease whose method of transmission transcends cultural barriers. The addition of a Resource Directory highlights the need for networking in today's global environment.
261973,2,Two words: Jam Jazz,"You have to hear this album to believe what everyone is saying about it. Red Clay is simply beyond category of words. During the first play of listening to this album I couln't understand why I didn't already own it and why hadn't any of my friends already turned me on to it. Red Clay just comes out and clobbers you over the head with jazz/funk/fusion/bop and whatever until you just shake your head in disbelief. Seriously, don't let this one escape your collection."
262042,2,excellent,I love the music options but only wish that the music would cycle through all the styles instead of just one selection at a time. Baby doesn't notice and still loves the music after the mobile part has been removed.
262045,2,Love it,"I did a very thorough search of crib mobiles and their capabilities before I bought this one. I am very pleased with the results of this one. The mobile itself has 3 volume settings options (no sound, quiet, or louder), several music options in addition to a ""rainforest"" sound of birds chirping, owls hooting, and crickets making noise (my favorite setting, as it seems to sooth my 3 month old to sleep quickly), an option to have the night light on or off, and various combination options (i.e., light or no light with sound or no sound). The rainforest characters are very colorful and, in addition to the leaves going up and down, the orbital movements of the characters makes my daughter very fascinated. This mobile really started getting the quiet, peaceful attention of my daughter when she was 8 weeks old. Now at 13 weeks old, the mobile still gets used daily as she transitions off to sleep."
262057,2,A beautiful set and great customer service,"I made more than a hundred searches on the Internet, comparing scores of sets before I chose these. I did not choose them because of the low price, but because of the beauty of the set. Unlike the customer who did not like the sizes of the pieces, I find the pieces to be perfectly proportioned.The tablespoons in the first set that was shipped to me had what appeared to be a machine made scratch across the handles. Almost immediately after I notified them of the problem, Amazon sent me an E-mail informing me that they were shipping a replacement set. Unfortunately, the tablespoons in the replacement set had the same problem--though to a lesser degree. So I sent the tablespoons to Oneida, who sent me flawless tablespoons. I truly appreciate the terrific customer service that I received from both companies and am delighted with my Oneida Strauss flatware."
262096,2,Outstanding content,"This DVD is a part of a collection. This is presented by one of the leading exponent of Bharathanatyam (Bharathanrityam to be exact) Dr. Padma Subrahmanyam, It was a live performance held in Chennai. I wish the quality when zoomed out was better. The lights are a bit harsh, but nevertheless the subject quality far outweighs the technical mumbles. The series of 7 DVD collections in this series are Bhagavad Gita, Krishnaya Tubhyam Namahah, Ramaya Tubhyam Namaha, Jaya Jaya Sankara, Meenakshi Kalyanam, Sangaman, Paripadal Mudhal Bharathi Varai."
262109,2,Blessed Relief,"Had an alarm located near the kitchen using the ionization technology. It was driving me crazy with false alarms. I couldn't even use the toaster without the thing going into full panic, necessitating me having to leave my food preparations and charge around to silence the alarm. The unit lasted only a year...no surprise under the circumstances. While researching for a replacement I came to realize that the photoelectric technology would more likely be better for said location. Plus, I found that it was wise to use both types in the home. Since getting this alarm, I have had no false alarms while cooking and now have the satisfaction of having both types, since the ionization ones are in other areas of the home. Now, if this one just works when there is a true kitchen alert needed, I'm all set."
262114,2,Good Combo,These were bought to replace others. Never had any problems. Combo preferred over buying two units for smoke and carbon monoxide.
262152,2,A Slice of the Good stuff!,"""When did Bob Leave Heaven"" and come down here and write all these great songs? Did ""Sally Sue Brown"" help out? This one is a keeper!"
262180,2,Good challenging start at Oragami ... Well worth it,"I purchased this for my 7 year old. The book has some easy start Origami (swan, fish, etc.) and then moves toward others that are more challenging (water bomb, frog, etc.). She really enjoys it. I can see more Origami in her future :) (NOTE: it does not include paper, so I purchasedOrigami Paper Traditional Prints 8 1/4"" 49 Sheets)."
262220,2,replacing old phone,I bought this phone because my old phone has problems producing a dial tone. This phone doesn't have that problem.
262224,2,bought this when power went out,"back to the future-Most of our phones, like everybody else, depend on line power for operation. This is a cheap solution. Have one or two around the house, in the garage or wherever, to use when the power keeps the cordless phones off. Works great. I put one in my shop, and one in the utility room.One of our neighbors (we live in the mountains) had to climb the hill behind their house to get up where the cell phone worked during a recent power outage. Didn't own a wired phone."
262311,2,"We are the invaders, not them.","This book is a must read for all of those people out there that believe all of the open spaces are for you only. Once the background info is in place you can't put this down. No human had ever been attacked by a grizzly in Glacier National Park until a summer day in 1963. On the same night 2 separate attacks took place by 2 different bears. These 2 bears weren't man eaters, they were used to the folks at the resort feeding them and when they stopped, the bears attacked.WE INVADED THEIR LAND AND WE INTERUPTED THEIR WAY OF LIFE. WE ARE TO BLAME, NOT THOSE BEAUTIFUL CREATURES."
262316,2,VERY GOOD QUALITY CAT5,"I have one of these going from my router to my computer, I have a small apartment and the wire travels right in front of my front door, so people are always stepping on it on their way out or in.Not a dent on the wire at all.The latches on them are GREAT, real good quality."
262407,2,Neat fun!,Medical experts say to keep your mind active to avoid Alzheimers. This is a great way to do it and have fun.
262459,2,It Stays is a really good name,This product really does what it says - It Stays! I use it everyday and it works perfectly. One bottle lasts a really long time so it is very economical.
262524,2,like it,"Very good quality DVD Arrived fast.I adid not like much THe Prisoner and I did not see all of them yetThe Persuaders is light and interteining,pleasure for eyes"
262536,2,Great pan!,"I have a number of Berndes products and have been impressed with all of them. This SignoCast skillet is wonderful. The non-stick coating really works- for everything. I've used it for meat, eggs, gravy and sauces and nothing sticks. It heats evenly and sits flat on the burner. This pan is LARGE but that's another reason I like it. If you don't want something this big, there are smaller sizes that might work better for you. A great product!"
262602,2,Very technical genetic overview - somewhat lacking in details,"Absolutely highest quality photo illustrations: super high glossy prints. The chapters dealing with breeding has highly technical language regarding Mendelian genetic theory - might be a little advanced for anyone without a college degree in biology.A little lacking in details regarding the how-tos: How to set up a breeding environment, for example. I would have preferred more in-depth info than what was given.Nevertheless, this book is worth getting, just be prepared to supplement it with other books."
262614,2,Really Good,The box was in great condition and the discs were not scratched one bit. I kind of wish that they would have kept the picture that was attached to the dvd box when bought but other than that it was good!
262628,2,Really enjoy this toy,I purchased this toy for my 10 month old for Christmas. He loves it. It has lots of different toys for him to play with. He especially like the little birds that are on top of the dinosaur. I like the fact that there is a low volume which makes it easier on the parents' ears! It's a great toy and a great value.
262650,2,good for digestive problems,"This product does cut down on gas and bloating. I take it before meals and it does wonders. Be sure to drink it with cold (not hot or warm) water to wash it down. If you don't, you may experience some peppermint reflux. I like this formulation better than the one she had used many years ago. The product performs like it says it does. I recommend it highly."
262726,2,Very fun for all little girls.,"My three daughter's aged two, four and six all love this toy. It works very well and has the magic of Disney."
262769,2,awesome,"The title is not lying. So many soups! No pictures though, and that's a little disappointing (but this whole series lacks pictures so...not unexpected.) Very handy go-to soup book."
262797,2,beware of buying dvds from wrong zone,I bought this dvd series without realizing that it was programed for US zone not EU zone (I live n the EU)so i couldnt watch them on my computer.
262811,2,Avon Clinical Eye Lift,"This product works well to keep your delicate skin around the eyes somewhat hydrated. Did nothing for any wrinkles. I would not pay full price for this product, but if you can find it on sale, its worth it."
262813,2,For artists,For the Artist who knows what he or she is at and its certainly not for the hobbiest who would be lost with this book.This for me is a great book as it has enrichened me....information is always good.I am delighted to have it. a worthy addition in any collection.
262830,2,Luther Allison at his finest,"The ""Bad News Is Coming"" album was released in 1972 in the universe of the motown empire. A blast of stratosheric energy came Luther Allison.On this album he unleashes his blazing guitar licks on such songs as ""Bad News Is Coming"",""Raggedy And Dirty"" and explores the wild side of Willie Dixon's songs ""Little Red Rooster"" and ""Evil Is Going On"". This CD is truly a must for any true blue fanatic"
262918,2,Impressive,This heavily footnoted tome makes a wonderful case for meaningful and holy worship in today's church. Very well presented.
262941,2,Great if you can follow a recipe!,"I was given this book as a gift; never saw the show. The recipes are excellent but don't allow for much improvisation (in my experience!)--the low-fat adjustments he makes really need to be followed to the letter in order for the dishes to come out as well as they should. That said, if you are a recipe-follower, he does amazing things with short ingredient lists, easy cooking techniques, and interesting combinations of ingredients. I especially like the potato-crusted fish recipe and the ""spicy ginger chicken"" (which is not at all spicy, but very tasty). There's also a great cole slaw recipe that uses curry powder--sounds weird, but it's delicious!"
262948,2,Rare and wonderful book,"This is the most wonderful book about Christmas I have ever seen. It's a compilation of Christmas lore and excerpts, the Boar's Head Carol next to Chesterton's warm praise of Dickens's holy enthusiasm for the spirit of Christmas. Some are moving, some are funny, some are just glorious, and all are interesting. Very hard to find. Treasure it."
262983,2,Interesting and Moving,"Enjoyed this one immensely. The story is fascinating and well written. Since the authors last book was about gangsters, I was pleasantly surprised that the book had a lot of emotional depth. This will be a great movie!"
263001,2,Pretty Darn Neat,"Well, having seen this show twice in previews, and once during it's current Broadway run, I don't have to say how much I love it. Avenue Q is a true musical masterpiece. It encompasses wit, humor, passion, ethic contemplation, and fire. This show rocks. No questions asked. This CD is the only released version of the show, unfortunately. However, it is a fine one. It captures the show fairly, accurately, and quite completely. Also, since I preordered this album, I got the online Windows Media Player stream. Awesome! If you haven't seen the show, pay the $100 to do so. If you don't have the album, pay the $15 to do so. You won't regret it."
263034,2,Interesting Insight into a Perplexing World,"I just finished reading Dear Alice. I found it extremely helpful in preparing myself mentally for an upcoming trip to China. The letters were quite authentic and honest, often revealing small details about the enigma of life in China. While I can't assume that I'll have a similar experience to that of the writers, I feel comforted to know that others have dealt with China and survived. A great book if you're curious about this foreign culture and an especially illuminating book for those of you from the United States and who are interested in the ways Americans might react to ""The land on the other side of the looking glass."""
263046,2,It's a good Documentary,"Check out what kind of logging is going on - on the east coast.Find out why our loggers haul loads to Canada to get paid.Learn why hard times are just as hard here.As for Ice Roads - we have those too.Actually I'm in New Hampshire, but Maine is just a few miles away.And it still has lots of frontier land.American Loggers. -- It's a good documentary."
263083,2,CLEANER,"REALLY FAST SHIPPING, EXACTLY AS STATED, WOULD DEFINITELY BUY AGAIN FROM THIS SELLER. SMOOTH TRANSACTION, HAPPY CUSTOMER. BRAND NEW AS DESCRIBED."
263106,2,Works great,"I bought these sheets because I was tired of filling up the small business card books. Now, I can just put all the cards in these sheets and add more sheets as necessary, at a much lower price than buying more books (and with better organization). I would strongly recommend anyone who gets a lot of business cards to go this route."
263150,2,Decent gate for the price,"We've gone through a lot of gates over the past 8 years, and so far this one is probably one of the best we've owned. We're using it across a doorway instead of stairs, but I'm sure it would be a safe gate for stairs too. It's very solid/sturdy. My husband was impressed with the templates it came with (to place the brackets & screws for mounting); no other gate has ever come with a template.The latching is a bit loud, but at least we're sure it's closed that way! And it's very easy for my older kids to open the gate, yet difficult enough that the younger ones cannot. Another thing to keep in mind is that it's not an easy gate for kids to climb over, unlike the old accordian-style gates."
263194,2,bread mach,The Breadman is very easy to operate and gives you options of how to bake your bread for a happy result.
263195,2,Good-tasting money-saving bread,"My husband and I really love the bread that we make in this machine. We follow the triple wheat bread recipe (whole wheat, germ, and bran) and also add in a bunch of oats, cooked 7-grain cereal, and cooked millet, and we get a really good, chewy bread that's a whole lot cheaper than the healthy whole-grain breads from the store.I love not having to clean up any bowls or pans, and it uses a lot less power than an oven, so it's great to use during the summer when you don't want to heat up the house by using the oven a lot.A few drawbacks: as others have mentioned, it's VERY difficult to read the control panel (was there supposed to be an LCD light that maybe doesn't work??)The machine shook so much the first time that we used it that it jumped off the countertop and tried to smash itself to pieces. It survived the fall, and we now keep it on the floor in the study full-time so that it can dance around while making bread without injuring itself."
263263,2,13 years later. . .it still kicks my mind into overload,"this is possibly one of the most amazing pieces of art i have ever been exposed to. . .and i was a fan of the the before this hit the market. soul mining and infected are classics <say vinyl>. this recording is more revelant today than it was in 1989. in light of 9.11 this shows that matt johnson thinks, pays attention to what is happening in the world, understands feelings and KNOWS how to translate the aforementioned to music.just get it. this is a conceptual piece, as are all of the the's work, think pink floyd in twilo. it's that good. i don't think that it has ever left my play list. i've owned the cd longer than i've owned the equipment to play it. . .fall in love with the the. you won't be sorry."
263315,2,Excellent introduction to CS2,I had been looking for a Photoshop instruction book for a while. I am extremely pleased with this one. It offers a very straightforward approach to learning CS2. If you are relatively new to Photoshop this book is perfect. It will teach you a basic workflow in a structured and easy to follow manner. Highly recommended !!
263356,2,Here On Earth,"Alice Hoffman's Here On Earth is an excellent book about love, relationships, and family. All of Hofman's works are enjoyable to read. This wasn't the best novel that Hoffman ever wrote but it still was exceptional. The ending wasn't as good as her other books' endings were. The main character is March Murray. She and her daughter, Gwen, have to go back to Jenkintown, New England to go to her old housekeeper's funeral. She tells her husband it will be a short stay because she really didn't want to go back. After she reunites with her first love, her short stay turns out to be longer than expected. Her first love, Hollis, is a very bull-headed man who is only in love with one woman, March. They never got married because Hollis left and while March waited for two years for him to come back, he never returned. This book is filled with excitement, secrets, and lies. You will never go wrong when reading any novel by Alice Hoffman."
263426,2,Good Product Good Price,"I purchased the JBuds Hi-Fi Noise-Reducing Ear Buds to use with my iTouch. The ear phones that came with the unit were terribly uncomfortable. The JBuds fit comfortably in my ears and provide very good sound quality. They are labeled correctly when they state they are ""noise-reducing"" because although they may reduce outside noise to some degree, they don't do it very well. I didn't need something that blocked outside noise completely (I use my iTouch primarily to listen to music as I go to sleep) so I wasn't worried about it too much but those wanting that feature should purchase a different product. For the price, they serve my purposes and are a much better quality product than the iTouch ear phones made by Apple!"
263447,2,Perfect everyday headphones for the price!,"Title says it all, these things are well worth the very little money they cost, especially if you tend to go through ear buds as much as I do. Can't comment on how long they will last, but they seem better quality than many other more expensive ear buds I've purchased. I will be recommending these to friends and family!"
263477,2,awesome deal on great sounding headphones of any size,"I got these as a replaceement for ipod earbuds and wanted something with good sound. I am blown away at how well these perform. they are comfortable, block much outside noise but also keep just about all sound coming from these to others. they having amazing tight bass and crisp on the highs. I listen to full size Grado SR-60s at home and they are hard to beat at their price point but these are great for on-the-go. No sacrifice in quality sound. They work great on sweaty runs so far.I accidentally washed them in pocket and they still worked but not 100%. I ended up buying two more pairs. You cant beat these for the value."
263514,2,Unicorns,I ordered the Beanie Baby Unicorns for my daughter's 6th birthday party as favors. Big hit! They were exactly what I expected and I received them very quickly.
263576,2,Bringing Passion to Change,"By putting the heart into business everyone wins. According to Carmel change is not working in many companies because of the lack of passion. Change Activists make things happen because they careCarmel creates a compelling case for becoming a Change Activist. This benefits the individual, the business and society as a whole. She learnt her activist skills at the Greenham Common US Air Base in the UK and has successfully these skills into the business worldThe free flowing style is refreshing. And her case is backed up by many interviews with the likes of Anita Roddick of Body Shop fameI've recommended this to my website members and they've told me that it has helped them to - take control of their lives, turn up the volumen on what they really care about, and above all - make things happen.Definitely different and definitely recommended"
263593,2,Laugh out loud funny,"Every mother will recognice all the feelings, if not the actual incidents, described in this book. We've all had them, but only Ms Newman had the skill and wit to write them all down, validate our collective hysteria in those early years, and make us roar with laughter at it all. There are twenty years of this madness ahead of her and I'm looking forward to reading about it (hopefully!) in her future writing."
263669,2,Atmospheric hip-hop,"I was a bit leery upon inital purchase. I wasn't a but fan of The Opus' proudction, but this release definitely shut me up. The lyrics are abrasive, and the beat are moddy and futuristis without being too overbearing. And at such a great price, no one can complain!"
263684,2,Unforgettable,"I remember reading and absolutely loving this book when I was young (and let's just say I am definately not young anymore, yet still absolutely love it!) The attention to detail and intricate story about a future society will really grab any reader, young or old. Over the years I have thought of it and made attempts to find and purchase it without success. It became my ""white whale"" of sorts, and I am extremely glad to have finally found it again! It is a book that I will pass around to friends and to future generations."
263786,2,Guarantee,"First heard Ray warm up for Marshall Tucker about 4 years ago. Then again at a fundraiser for a mutual friend. Had the honor to attend this live recording and be among the first to purchase it. Have listened to it hundreds of times since. Ray writes and plays well, sings even better. He is a fine musician (IMHO) and a good man. Buy this CD and if you don't like it I will buy it back from you."
263799,2,Just purchased a second time,"We purchased these faucets when we updated our bathroom vanity counters. Our original fixtures are from this series, so we wanted to match the tub, shower and towel bar hardware. The first 10 years have gone smoothly - hope these do as well."
263806,2,Good :->,"Over the years, I've come to like the 10 Minute Solution series. This is quite a good one, but not my absolute favourite.You will challenge your entire ab section in different ways. Plank work for the transverse abs and Pilates for the core, combat aerobics to hit and burn the fat and then regular crunches and ab curls and a little more pilates. I like having a dvd that concentrates mainly on abs because you can do these whenever you want - daily if you'd like. If you've done your walk or aerobic work, it's great to put this on when you've got a little spare time and it's easy enough but you still feel good for it afterward. The instructor Suzanne is good - her cuing is helpful and on the mark and it makes this easy to follow. I think this would make a good addition to your other workout dvds."
263913,2,Excellent way to develop listening comprehension,"After borrowing this book from our public library, I have struggled first through the textbook and then started listening to the tapes while commuting. Of course, in the first days, I understood only about 10%, however, this has finally increased to about 95%. The recodings have a real life quality, both in terms of speed and content. I like this course very much and recommend it to anyone who wants to understand spoken Spanish. The explanations of grammar are only minimal, however, you can combine this with any other textbook that gives a more thorough background in the Spanish grammar. The great value of this course is its emphasis on listening comprehension of the real spoken Spanish."
263958,2,Excellent experience by South!,"This is a South that is nice to remember, it is electronic, filled with atmospheric nuances, mixed with modern rock approaches. I feel like they had a stronger hold here in terms of edge than From Here On In. But that's not saying much: check that album out if you are serious."
263968,2,It's a cover...it covers great!,The cover fits snug and will not blow off. During a recent wind storm my car cover blew off but the grill cover stayed on. It looks good too.
263977,2,Excellent so far,"I bought this book several years ago... not sure why it has taken me this long to write a review.I've only tried one recipe - Bucatini with Sausage, Peppers, and Onions. For those of you who are complaining that these recipes are no good, you obviously have not tried this one. It's super healthy but delicious.If you're having problems finding ingredients, go online and find substitutes. For goodness sakes. Get creative.The main complaint I have is that I haven't tried more of the recipes because I have no idea what I am making since there are no pictures. Thus, I don't know if something looks like something I would enjoy. Perhaps referencing a website with pictures would help??Anyway, what people are saying about recipes taking more than 30 minutes is true, unless you have a food processor."
264127,2,Great Movie!,"I bought this movie to add to my already extensive Christmas movie collection. We start watching them the day after Thanksgiving right up until Christmas. Once again, another good movie with a fair price!"
264168,2,nice looking stock,"This is a nice stock that will make your beat up enfield look great, even though it says its a direct drop in replacement you will have to do some sanding or some slight drememl work to the stock to get it to fit correctly, like sanding the forearm to float the barrel and i had to sand under the safety so the receiver would sit all the way down, it was preventing my clip from going in like it should i was having to hit it pretty hard to lock it in place, but once thats done it is a great stock for the price."
264173,2,Great for working out!,"The I-Jam is a cute, compact, light and an overall great MP3 player. I workout a lot and find it MUCH easier to clip this on my hip than a cumbersome tape player. The sound is excellent and it's extremely easy to set up and download music. The negative aspects of the I-Jam is that it comes with (2)16MB multimedia cards. They can only hold about 4 songs each and it's difficult to change the cards while working out. You can purchase 32MB multimedia cards (...) which allows you to record about 8-9 songs. It would be much better if the company added a 32MB card instead of the (2) 16MB cards. Overall for the price, weight, clarity, and size you can't beat it!"
264175,2,awesome musician,"i must admit that i heard this on a recorded tape while i was waiting for a girl i was babysitting to fall asleep, and i may have missed the last song or two, but what i heard was amazing. this woman's music is beautiful--you lose yourself in her lyrics, her voice, and her stunning guitar riffs: especially when you expect to hear a child's lullaby tape, and you get kate rusby. someone you may never have heard of, but if you know one thing, you know that as soon as you can get to the store you're going to buy her cd."
264204,2,THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SETS EVER,My only complaint is were is the long version of Bluebird this set is also strange because why are some of the same songs is studio versions repeated from the fourth disc wich is the first two albums but in mono and stereo. This is all of it and I believe it it has taken Neil Young so long to compile this set and he did a fine job. At times this set gets a little over welming but thats what we want all this set does is show just how fresh and brilliat Young and Stills were and it prooves that they were a band like no other Buffalo Springfield is one of the greatest bands of all time even if there time togather was short it's some of the most groundbreaking music of the late 60's buy it if you want more then the best of wich is still fine to own.
264213,2,High-quality merchandise at a reasonable price,"While this is obviously not intended to be a high-end (i.e., scientifically accurate) medical instrument, it functions consistently and is easy to use. It enables me to track relative changes in my body composition as I diet."
264275,2,Excellent book.,"A quick review, perhaps more of a vote, than anything else. Over the years I've read dozens of Vietnam War history books and memoirs. This was undoubtedly one of the best and the only one I've read twice. Written by a BBC news team, the work is very balanced and respectful of the courage displayed by both the American and Australian ""Tunnel Rats"" as well as the Vietnamese guerrillas who lived and fought from the tunnels. Although I don't think it contains anything that is offensive to Americans, this work is easily available in pirated editions throughout the nation of Vietnam today where it is hawked by vendors near the battlefields of the war, including the actual Tunnels of Cu Chi, now basically a tourist trap."
264289,2,It works !,I used this product in my 12 year old PC and it works with the other boards. Did not have a problem at all !
264366,2,excellent!!!!!!!!!!,Thank You Micheal....this book was well balanced and I enjoyed every page..being born and raised in Georgia ...gave this book a special meaning to me....Peace to you...a.w.
264380,2,A Must Have,"I can keep this short. The Moon Filter is a must have for viewing of the moon through a telescope. Viewing a full moon without the filter is similiar to staring directly at a bright flashlight. But with the filter you readily see the craters, mountains, and other features. It is definitely money well spent."
264382,2,Helps when looking at the full moon,"Found this filter to be helpful when looking at a full moon with high magnification, but rarely used. Does what it should, but not sure it is really necessary."
264386,2,Good for the price,"The stools are what you paid for. Not the best but not bad either.It took me a while to assemble the first, around 45 minutes. The instructions were not great and the holes didn't really align. A little tricky in the beginning. Assembling the second was then easier, took me 20 minutes.It is comfortable as long as you are not going to stay on it for over 2 hours non-stop. I am 5'6"" and my husband is 5'9"" and both of us seat comfortably, we can reach the foot rest without problem.The design is modern, not the typical classic and elegant look. Some parts came a little scratched and I worsen it while trying to align the holes during assembly. It is worth the price.I recommend these stools if you are in a short budget.If you have a higher budget and if you are looking for something to last longer, I would suggest you looking further."
264447,2,jessie s life in clifton,i think it was a dum stupid she is commiting suicide that is so dum i can think of a better way to solve the problem.i bet you are wondering what was the problem read the book to find out how stupid it is.
264521,2,Wonderful resource,"This is my second copy of this book. Loved it, shared it, bought it again!Quick shipping, great condition."
264554,2,WORKS GREAT !!,"For one-fourth the price of most other replacement remotes, this one works impeccably well, does everything the much larger original did, and exceeds expectations. It is small so doesnt look so bad on the lampstand next to my easy chair. I use it on an older RCA non-HD TV and does everything I need it for."
264555,2,works great,I bought it cuz it was cheap -- and it has worked great. I had no problem programming our tv and it has worked fine since.
264558,2,Brice Shephard,Very powerful Ive used it 3 times so far and it appears to be built to last I would recommended this for any home mechanic/ do it yourselfer. Just remember that all pneumatic tools should be oiled with each use (just a few drops in the air nipple where the hose hooks on).
264656,2,Love this,One of the best marketing management books provided by Kotler.It gives core ideas of marketing and enrichs marketing knowledge and straegies.
264677,2,Bernina presser foot,"I use this foot on oy Bernina 920 machine. It does it's job well, though it takes lots of practice to get your handing feeding the fabric just right."
264752,2,Jerry Lewis is great in this!,"Although I'm not known as a Jerry Lewis fan, this movie grabbed me from the first time I saw it -- to the point where I finally had to buy it. The scene that I love the most and that I think has become quite famous, is the one where he sits at the bosses' desk and mimes to a Count Bassie number. He is pure genius in that bit and you get to see snippets of who Jerry Lewis is -- not just a bumbler, silly guy but has flashes of sexiness, command, and sophistication. I just love that bit for seeing all these many faces.The movie has a lot of really funny stuff in it too... you can see the punch lines coming in so many cases but that makes it all the funnier. The DVD is extra good because there's commentary you can add that enhances the watching and brings back the old days even you if you aren't old enough to remember the old days ;-)"
264760,2,Christian DMX,trying to decide what new cd to buy with your hard earned money? looking for a great present? search no more because with out a doubt pettidee is the best flowing beat droppin christian artist out there. hes got that ruff DMX sound with awesome messages. pick this up today...GOD BLESS
264792,2,a cool party with the coolest performers!,"I'm not a big fan of hip-hop. However, I really enjoy this album. you can meet so many different genre of hip-hop in this album. each song is performed by different artists so each song shows different character of each unique and talented artist such as Miho hatori of Cibo Matto, Sean Lennon and Rosin of Moloko.by getting this album, I bought other albums by Moloko, too and it was a wise choice.:-)"
264818,2,awesome oil,"this is the best oil i ever used , you notice the engine runs quiter,and you feel it in the motor , better performance for sure tighter engine better horesepower"
264823,2,"How you do to that CD,it's great,not bad","1.Music-I don't like it,but too overplayed for this CD-2/5 stars2.Most Girls-I listen a lot when gets boring-4/5 stars3.Bent-Good rock tune-5/5 stars4.Everything You Want-I like Vertical Horizon,this song is bad-1/5 stars5.Deep Inside Of You-Good punk tune-5/5 stars6.Pinch Me-Great pop tune-5/5 stars7.The Way You Love Me-An ultimate love song,but little annoying-3.5/5 stars8.Here With Me-One of my favorites-5/5 stars9.He Wasn't Man Enough For Me-Good song,but too overplayed-4/5 stars10.What A Girl Wants-Annoying,depressing song-1/5 stars11.Wifey-Not my type of song-2/5 stars12.Dance with Me-My 2nd favorite song-5/5 stars13.Tell Me How You Feel-Not my type of song,again-2/5 stars14.Graduation-Best song on CD!!!!!-6/5 stars15.Breathless-An OK song-3/5 stars16.Fine-OK,I hate Whitney Houston-2/5 stars17.The Little Girl-Good country tune-5/5 stars"
264829,2,Unique Sound,"This CD of traditional songs has a very different sound than anything I've heard previously. There is minimal instrumentation; oud & tablas mainly with a bit of violin and some kind of wind instrument. Marchand and Marcel Guillou handle the vocals. Thierry Robin plays oud only. The songs are duets. It's sound is very hard to describe. Its a kind of staccato, in a way almost serialistic. It doesn't feel like anything French or Celtic or Gypsy that I've ever heard. It almost sounds like a couple of French guys trying to make Pygmy music or trying to make up their own Islamic prayers. I wouldn't call it accessible. It's very good but it's also very challenging."
264998,2,Saved my dog!,"She is a four year old rescue. Had major surgery for digestion problems and would not eat after the surgery. I add a spoonful to her hard food and she eats it all! Her digestion had never been better. It does stink, so store in a really sealed container. I gave it to my pet sitter for her aging golden and he loved it and has more energy. This really saved my dog. She is happy, has her energy back and is her old self again."
265000,2,her only hero,Marta Perry always writes. A wonderful story...always enjoyable.keeps your interest..and makes you want to read.more. She always has a story with a great endingyou dontwant toput down the book.
265014,2,Amazing stuff!,"I love this product! I used it on my pregnant belly after showering and NO STRETCH marks. I also use it on any dry skin, scrapes, feet, and plan to use it on my baby as well. It's a pure substance, right from the shea nut tree so there are no chemicals added or any funky substances. There is no moisturizer like it!!! I am not crazy about the smell but apparently you can add essential oils to it to change the smell. Haven't tried that yet."
265197,2,Conception Indeed,I enjoyed the interpretations of the Stevie Wonder. I love all the artists on this CD.
265293,2,My most beloved rainy day book,I adore this story -- the characters are so dimensional and developed. There is a poignacy to their scenes that I have not seen duplicated in other romance novels. I have read and re-read this book so many times its pathetic. I recommend this novel to anyone who wants to find out why we read this genre of books. Fan-bloody-tastic!
265334,2,THE BEST BOOK FOR MY GRANDCHILDREN,"Children should learn to pray at a very young age, and this handbook is ideal for busy parents,so they grab it and show their children, God hears us when we pray.The seller did a good job sending the book on time for Christmas."
265370,2,Great Remote,"This is my second ""advanced"" universal remote and it rocks. Its got a great display, intuitive buttons and most importantly, the online setup works great. I programmed 10 devices in about 15 minutes and haven't had to change it yet. This is a great remote!"
265392,2,A complete tennis guide,"This book is perfect for the beginner and expert alike. It starts off by reviewing the basic strokes, and then goes into details like startegy, competion, and even pschology. Overall an excellent tennis primer."
265423,2,Hands Free head set,I had a hands free ear bud and this is much better for comfort and it seems to be clearer on both ends. The mike on the other picked up a lot of extra noise and this one doesn't. I like the tap answer and hang up feature too so you never have to go to the phone.Chas
265482,2,I'm sorry it's over...,"I've never written a review, but I was completely touched by this book. Marian Keyes is an expert at balancing serious issues with endearing characters (okay, there are also some despicable characters) in real-life contexts. I love the fact that this book was long; I was totally torn between not wanting it to be over and yet, desperately needing to find out what happens.Do not hesitate about making this purchase! I am sad I only have two more of her books left to read."
265506,2,Great For Stairs,"I bought this little vacuum to replace a hand-held Eureka beater vacuum that finally died. The Sidewinder is very lightweight and easy to carry around. In fact, it's considerably smaller than I thought it would be but that's okay because I use it just about exclusively for all the carpeted stairs I have. It does a great job on the stairs.The reason I gave the Hoover Sidewinder only four stars is because of the lack of anywhere to wind the cord neatly."
265514,2,Some of my best friends are huge rabbits.,"I saw this film initially as a child, but all these years later, I now realize the importance of being ""pleasant,"" as Elwood Dowd, friend to all, states.Not just a funny, enjoyable family film -- but a wonderful positive reinforcement of the childlike (not childish!) approach to life that would keep us all sane, if we only give it a chance.Highly recommeded to all who suspect we've got friends that others might not see. Charming!"
265528,2,Best of Charleston's Best,"Excellent biographical vignettes of the most significant authors of Charleston's rich cultural past. The chapters are as well-crafted as Plutarch's LIVES. This is by far the best and most engaging of several new books on literary Charleston. What emerges is that Charleston throughout her long literary history has never taken a back-seat to any American city. Being published in a small edition, the book is destined to become a greatly sought after volume. The prose is a joy to read."
265535,2,only gardening book I regularly recommend,"I love this book. I have read hundreds of gardening books, mostly taken out from the library, but have only actually shelled out the cash to buy about 5. This is the only one I recommend to people regularly.I went to the author's website and emailed him a couple questions. The guy emailed me back with replies in less than a day. That was really nice of him.BTW, one of his replies was that the recommended spacing for potatoes is one square if growing to full size, or 4 to a square if growing for new potatoes (or a small variety).He said he would post to his site with more info on my second question. He has a lot of other additional info available on his site as well.The site is great for owners of the book. But get the book, it fully explains the system and includes reference tables for many types of plants. It's indispensable."
265554,2,Full of amusing anecdotes,"Great introductory overview of the engineering that got Apollo to the moon. A lot of the issues are only summarized and retold in sound-bite-sized anecdotes, but at 300 pages, the book isn't meant to be much more. Very enjoyable read."
265564,2,Very informative. Packed with detail.,"This talks about the making of the trollies - Tulsa, Sand Springs, Oklahoma City and some other towns. How they were run and why they went out of business. It is designed to give information, not intended to entertain."
265584,2,Unforgettable,"I just finished reading this book for the third time and tears were streaming down my eyes. Ms. Spencer makes her characters believable and her books are nearly impossible to put down. I highly reccommend her books; once you read one, you will be rushing out to buy evrything you can get your hand on that she has written."
265603,2,Cord Problems Initially but Fixed Now,"This set works fine, except for the headset cord originally included with it which was too thin in construction and constantly tangled on itself. Every week or so I have to would have to disconnect the headset cord from the base and untangle it.Eventually after almost a year my cord wore out in one tangled section and the headset no longer worked. But you can't just replace the cord, you have to get a whole new headset.Luckily my set was under warranty and Plantronics kindly and quickly sent me another.The new headset seems to have a slightly thicker cord so it does not tangle much anymore. So based on this new cord I'd have to say I'm satisfied with the set now. Hopefully the current models ship with this newer thicker cord."
265605,2,Works well,"I ordered this headset after it was recommended to me by a friend. It arrived quickly and I was impressed by it's design. It seems very sturdy but that is probably because I am used to much less expensive headsets. It was fairly easy to set up but there seems to be so many cords involved. I also had to purchase a new telephone because it did not work with my cordless telephone.The sound is great. Very clear on both sides. The noise cancelling feature does work on some background noise but not on all. Also, I don't like the fact that you have to pick up your telephone headset and press a button every time you receive a call--but I guess there isn't much to be done about that."
265651,2,Gr-8 CD!,"I feel this is a very good CD. It has a great compilation of very cool songs I hear often at clubs. Also, songs blend seemlessly together which is a real plus! The only reason why I rate it with 4 stars is that I was expecting songs with higher beats per minute, since I want to use it for my advanced-step class where we usually work with 142 bpm. The highest in this CD is 138. But still, it's great to work up a good sweat and have fun at the same time!"
265725,2,Not wrinkle-resistant at all but SO GREAT of a price!,"Product claimed to be wrinkle-resistant, which I don't think any Karate Gi truly is. And this one is not either. But the price for a new uniform for my child was well worth it. The Dojo sells them for $30-60. So the price gets the 4th star. This brand in size 00 fits a 50 inch tall, 50lb child perfectly."
265729,2,What an adventure!!!,"This story is made for the movies. If Disney doesn't get Harrison Ford for the male lead they're missing the boat. (No pun intended.) I thoroughly enjoyed the book. Read it at one setting, finally putting it down at two in the morning. The next book (previewed at the end) sounds equally good."
265778,2,The Gestapo,"The book contains many fact that I had not none. It is surprising where many of these came to light. It is very detailed and well researched. The back biting in the regime was always know known and is confirmed in this book. All in all it was a book which was hard to put down. Looking back at the horror, it is difficult to believe that this could happen in the las century."
265930,2,SOUNDS GREAT,These headphones sound really good. They are a good fit for my four year old. The earpiece is really soft and the volume control doesn't allow her to turn it up too too loud. I only gave it four stars because I would have liked to have seen thicker wires or coated wires. I could see these becoming damaged with shorts if used unsupervised.
265937,2,What would it be like to live every moment of one's life with an awareness of God?,"With this question, Diogenes Allen began his search into the depths of Christian spirituality. What he found resulted in a brief but very powerful overview of the history of spiritual theology. Allen probes the insights of the Bible and such spiritual masters as St. Anthony and the desert fathers, Augustine, Basil the Great, Bonaventure, Cassian, Evagrius, Francis of Assissi, Gregory of Nyssa, George Herbert, Julian of Norwich, Maximus the Confessor, Teresa of Avila, and Simone Weil. Perhaps the best concise spiritual theology written, tying ancient wisdom to the needs of today."
265988,2,AWESOME!,"I bought this cd only yesterday, but have listened to it over 50 times. Ryan Cabrera has a great smooth voice that you will never get tired of. This is a great cd for pre-teens/teenagers who love blasting their music throughout the whole house because everyone will love his voice and music. Unlike all the other hott celebrities Ryan Cabrera actually has lots of talent. This is an AWESOME cd that would be perfect for anyone."
266009,2,A good Book But No Ender's Game,"Just Like the Book Bean was great but no Ender, He is as smart as Ender but could never lead, he was too abrasive and not as mature as Ender. In addition anyone who says that bean is smarter is wrong, he may have thought up one or two new ideas but it was ender who implemented them to perfection not Bean."
266075,2,So easy my 5 year old can do it!,"I bought this product in the hopes of using it between regular moppings, but I think instead I'll throw out my regular mop. We have four young kids and my son spilled half a gallon of orange juice all over the kitchen floor. We soaked up the puddle with paper towels, then used the mop/sprayer to clean. The floor is clean, shiny and NOT STICKY! In fact, my son wanted to try it out and proceeded to mop all the floors in the house with the Flip Ease. I am impressed at how well it cleans all the floors--laminate, linoleum, and hardwood. Some people in other reviews seem to think it is supposed to vaccuum up water--it is not. This is not a wet vac. It vaccuums up small debris like pet hair and crumbs (even glitter!), and if you flip it, you can spray and wet mop but it is NOT meant to be a wet vac. Overall--very nice product."
266077,2,Essential and fixable.,"Picked up one for a Traxxas Rustler 2wd that I bought used. Plastic does pop apart on occasion, but two plastic cable ties cured the problem."
266133,2,Jon !! You are genus !!,This album is a revolution .. Jon is just amazing and he came at the right time specially in this album .. I really loved this album even more than Tag Mahal .. He put an amazing part in every single song to make you wait for it .. I can't believe that this album was made on 2006 !! Pls Jon remains the same and keep the good work ..
266142,2,Excellent wrap-up to an excellent series,"Georgia Nicholson is at it again. Picking up where ""Knocked Out By My Nunga-Nungas"" left off, ""Dancing in my Nuddy-Pants"" finishes the ""Confessions of Georgia Nicolson"" series in style. As if dealing with ""Furry Baby Jesuses"", a brief stint as hockey captain, backstage antics, a last showdown with the Bummer Twins, and a really eventful trip to Paris weren't enough, Georgia must sort out her feelings for Dave the Laugh and Robbie the Sex God before one of them does something rash...like move to New Zealand!As ever, Rennison treats her heroine's escapades with wit and candor, and strange phrases not even British people knew...until they started reading the books. And saddening though it is that this is the end of the series, Rennison has given Georgia a right and proper conclusion."
266213,2,Great MP3 player for the price!,"This is the second one we've bought. My husband was using mine so much we got him one as well. It takes a while to figure out the functions, but well worth the time."
266229,2,Order your College Textbooks from Amazon,I ordered college textbooks for my son and this was one of them. GREAT price. Fast ship to his front door. Amazon is the best college bookstore.
266230,2,Great Resource For Speakers And Inspiration,"I speak for a living and one of the toughest things can be to find the ""just right"" quote to embody the main ideal of your presentation. Most quotes book collections and online quote sites make you have to filter through tons of useless stuff to find the jewel you were looking for. This book focuses on quotes that are the very best for use in the workoplace and organizes them by subject matter. Simply put, I find what I'm looking for faster and easier with this book than in other places."
266233,2,Truly Delightful,"This entire DVD is pleasing to both the eye and the ear. The video quality is not the greatest at a few points, but is certainly of acceptable quality. The audio is exceptional considering the original source.There are some moving performances on this DVD, but for my taste, Jussi Bjoerling steals the show. Wow could that guy sing. His expression, both physically and vocally, are captivating. He uses the ""mezzo voce"" effortlessly and can put you back in your seat with his full voice. This is a must have for any lover of great tenor singing."
266236,2,"Nice product, quickly clamp and stabalize materials.","These clamps are hard to find and I could not find one at any local stores. This clamp has performed very well for me. I use it to quickly stabilize material on my craftsman drill press. The chrome finish is a bit cheap, but that has no bearing on its function."
266240,2,Jane Horrocks-The Big Voice of L.V.,Great listening. What fun to find another cd as good as the first. I would highly recommend this cd to all who enjoyed the first. Good music.Great song selection.
266268,2,Classic Worship Songs,"A very good collection of Worship songs from the early days of Contemporary Christian music. Great orchestration and vocals. Most of these songs are still popular today, though they may have been updated in terms of rythym and style."
266271,2,Great Bike!,"This Bike is great! I have 3 children who love to go on bike rides. My youngest, at 2 1/2, could not keep up and hated sitting in her stroller. This bike allows us to keep up with the older kids. She loves it and I'm constantly getting compliments on it. It is well worth the money."
266274,2,You Can't Put This Good Salesman Down - Even Posthumously,"I heard a throw-away remark on the PsychJourney podcast about how the listener must read at least chapter one of Bettger's book. The book was available in my library, so I borrowed it to read chapter one. But I couldn't stop reading! If I hadn't steeled myself and sent it back, I would have read the lot from cover to cover. It's so well written. And tells real human interest stories that keep you wanting to read more. Just like Dale Carnegie's books - who by the way wrote the foreword. If I were a salesman, I'd be an excellent one if I got to the end of this book."
266371,2,good performance when you are sitting straight to the receiver,good performance when you are sitting straight to the receiver.i needed a wireless mouse and kb to use with my mac mini.Earlier i used kensington's but that didnt work good.This worked good.Minor problem with it is that you have be sitting straight to the receiver.
266443,2,My Son Loves it,"I gave my son( he was 2 yrs and 9 months old then) a big surprise decorating, coloring my son's bedroom with Cars Theme.My son simply loves his room. He has got so many compliments for his room and Bed.The Bed was easy to assemble.Pasting the Decals need lot of patience."
266554,2,a good mystery,"Unlike others I didn't suspect the culprit early on...I had suspicions and questions but no solid feelings. This book is similar in style to the Weatherman, which I thought was very obvious, so obvious I doubted I could be correct...but I loved the book. I thought his characterizations were thorough other than for Rick and Andre, for whom I had little feel...but that is forgivable. I look forward to the next one because I love a good mystery and he is a good writer."
266578,2,What happened to the status of women,An absolutely fascinating study relating the development of a linear written alphabet to the decline of right brain intuitive thinking with images and worship of the feminine. When Moses came with a written law patriarchy took over and Mother Earth was never the same.Makes a lot of sense I never would have thought of.I am grateful to Michelle Spike and a Christopher Wren association course for bringing it to my attention.
266642,2,Free Play Review,"One of the best books I've read on the value of play, both for artists and for non-artists as well. The writing is smooth flowing and easy to not only understand but to feel as well. Creates an easy to follow road map to that place within where play is an integral part of who we are."
266687,2,A real-life thriller,"Mountain climber Aron Ralston found himself trapped in a narrow canyon, arm pinned down by an 800 pound boulder. He was faced with a choice - die there in the ravine, or cut off his trapped arm and hope he could survive his escape. This feature-length NBC News documentary, reported by Tom Brokaw, lays out Ralston's story -- as he faces his horrible decision; as loved ones back home try to figure out what has happened to him; and as rescuers try to reach him in time. Stunningly shot on location, using everything from tiny cameras in small spaces to helicopters delivering panoramic scenes of natural beauty, ""Survivor: Aron Ralston"" is a real life thriller that bests anything Hollywood could do."
266755,2,5 stars for what it is...,"...because when you need a Colossus fix, no other game is going to satisfy that itch. The lack of features and odd controls felt a bit limiting at first, but now it's a very comfortable setup to fall back into when I take out this game. (The controls are the way they are for a reason, and they work very well if you use them right.) I've beaten the game several times now, and it still feels like an exciting challenge to me to go up against a colossus or two every now and then.PS The landscape between Colossi isn't empty.. it has fruit and lizards. And birds, don't forget the birds."
266759,2,"Good, comfortable dress shoe, but not ideal","This is a good, basic dress shoe, true to size. I normally wear a 6 regular width in Naturalizer shoes but decided to purchase the 'Wide' version of the shoe in this instance. I have the Naturalizer 'Rogers' pumps in a size 6 and found them to be very tight and uncomfortable for my toes. I added a heel pad in the Destins to take care of the little bit of extra room back there and that has given them a good fit for my feet. The pumps are not as comfortable as Naturalizer's Movalo or Prissy sandals--which I think are exceptionally good shoes--but good and comfortable."
266803,2,Sony CD player,the best feature of this cd player is the resume feature! the product works as promised so I'm very please with everything about it.
266807,2,"The ""I Don't Know How to Cook"" Book","I can't give a user's total review since I bought this book for my grandson who is a college sophomore. All I can tell you, however, is that he looked through the book and was absolutely delighted with it. He is on his own cooking and after reviewing this book as well as the second book I reviewed and purchased he was absolutely delighted. The other cook book was titled ""A Real Man's Cookbook"". It seemed to me that each book offered something different that would be helpful to him as he learns to survive on his own cooking. I felt that the two books compliment each other.The Real Man's Cookbook: How, When, What and Why to Cook"
266844,2,Good overall view of Milhaud,"This compilation contains Milhaud's best known works and with the composer conducting with great verve and elan, nuance and quality of interpretation are all there. My favorite, the joyous Suite Provencale is superbly played. There is also the jazz oriented La Creation du Monde, the nostalgic Saudades do Brasil with its swaying rhythms and the comedic Le Boeuf sur le Toit with its ""Crazy Horse Saloon"" humor. A good introduction to a most interesting French composer and heartily recommended."
266879,2,Addicted!,Loved downloading onto iPad and watching whenever/wherever. Season 2 of Downton Abbey is as addicting as Season 1. Now on to Season 3!
266882,2,This is a fantastic series,Got hooked on it during the first season. I feel it just as good as the first season. Many twists and turns.
266913,2,I love this series,Worth paying for... love this series and the people. All the plot twists mean it never gets old. Can't wait to see Season 3.
266914,2,Fabulous!,So worth getting! I was so pleasantly surprised to find the Christmas Special as well--make sure you get the Season 1 UK edition as well!
266970,2,Great Addition,"I purchased this set as a supplement to my Winter Frost dinnerware.Amazon offered the best price and I, of course, took advantage of the free shipping."
266996,2,He's the best,"This is the best Brazilian writer at the best of his form, and one is certain to waste his time trying to locate a handful of Brazilians who would dispute this statement. Yet, Machado (1839-1908) may well be a bore if you go about this Brazilian Literature item expecting sweaty Sonias Bragas, Jorge Amado's style, or something of the sort. The man is sharp, sophisticated, often dark, always very funny, and a hell of a narrator. The word is, well, genius. Dom Casmurro (stick to the content! stick to the content!), with its apparent simplicity, its infinite nuances, is quite possibly the best love-triangle story ever written. Worth giving a try if you like reading at all.PS. Dom Casmurro is also found in English under the literally translated title Lord Taciturn. I prefer this edition's choice."
267002,2,Great storage,"Bought two of these; 1 for cat food, 1 for bird food. Both work excellently in ease of adding and removing food. Handles are sturdy for carrying and the 'cans' look good!"
267184,2,Good book for foreigners,It is an interesting American style book. Pretty good gift for my foreign friends.
267185,2,works GREAT on my LIBERTY,add load bars and GO!Used these all Summer and now leaving them on for the upcoming snow season for skis and sleds!
267200,2,The Truth about the Armenian Genocide,"One of the best documentaries out there which clearly depicts the horrific massacre of 1.5 million Armenians during the years of 1913 to 1923 by the Ottoman Turks. The movie proves that without recognizing previous genocides it is hard to prevent future genocides. besides the Armenians Genocide, the movie also concentrates on the Genocide in Darfur; furthermore, strengthening the need to recognize and help people suffering. The movie is a must-see. i recommand it to everybody."
267220,2,Outstanding Second in Series,"Amy Lane's second installment of what will hopefully be many future installments in this series is outstanding and builds on the characters and plots introduced in ""Vulnerable,"" yet stands on its on as an enjoyable and refreshing change in fantasy literature. In this series, the characters' eroticism is healing and positive, not cruel and sadistic, as is seen in much of the current literature. The characters are interesting and provide a fresh view of the faerie and other fey creatures. The elements of the story have a new edge and twist from the traditional ""faerie"" that makes this series stand out from the infinite crop of modern fantasy. Clearly, this is a series in which there are many more stories to be told, and hopefully the author will continue!!"
267260,2,Planet Earth & The Blue Planet Seas of Life (Special Collector's Edition),This DVD series has phonomenal footage! It's a great way to learn about our wonderful earth. It also makes you realize that we need to take care of our planet so that we will be able to enjoy these miraculous creations for many years to come. The team of filmmakers did an awesome job of capturing life and wonders of our world that we would never be able to see on our own.
267365,2,"Well, what an album","Firstly, this has to be the second best album of 2000 (the best being Iron Maiden's Brave New World). An album of greatness, some of the songs nearly match the heyday of Guns N Roses. Particular favourites are 'Speed Parade', 'Just Like Anything' and 'Ain't Life Grand'. Truly the best guitarist of the 90s (forget Vai and the like - they can seriously play, but they couldn't write a decent song to save their lives), Slash has made an album of outstanding quality, which should be appreciated by guitar-worshippers and rockers alike"
267395,2,good little book,A small book with a lots of good yoga information. Very small font in some sections.
267398,2,"Another bonk-fest. Gorgeous people, fast cars, loadsa-money","Another ripping good yarn from Jilly. Although not as rivetting as some of her others, Polo has the familiar themes of sex and money, horses and fast cars, adultery, gorgeous lookers and poking fun at the aristocracy. Rupert Campbell-Black, hero of Cooper's other mega-novels, makes a cameo appearance in this one, along with some other truly tragic characters. Curl up in your aeroplane seat, sofa or beach towel and get set for an un-put-downable read."
267402,2,A Keeper,"This is an extraordinary book. A friend sent to me and I just had to share copies with friends and family. There is lots of bad news in the world, this book explains the relationship between suffering and meaning and how challenges become stepping stones to growth. It lifted me up. The stories stay with you. I find myself coming back to this book again and again. It's a keeper."
267419,2,Great Camera for Novice,"I bought this camera and 1-week later headed for the Galapagos Islands. The camera was simple to use and wonderful photos resulted. We carried two lenses and 3 Gigs of memory for a 10-day trip. The battery held the charge--I had bought spare batteries and only needed to replace them once. I was impressed! I am hoping that photograpghy will be a new love in our life, and the camera will let us begin that journey."
267447,2,AWESOME,"OMG, i can't even begin to explain how fresh this album is. Every song is awesome. I really don't see why so many people hate on them, they are awesome. This is my favourite psychopathic album so far this year. I also have Underdogz EP, Down Low EP, The Unforgiven Forest & The Galaxy, and all of them are just as good as this album. To sum it all up AMB are tha shiznit. I highly recommend this to all juggalos. UNDERGROUND CLASSIC!MCLJono"
267464,2,Hurray for John Connell,"Hurray for John Connell he speaks to us beginners on our level. It was also very encouraging when he mentioned that he did not get it the first time, he had a light bulb moment. I have never heard a guru admit that before they usually give the impression that it came very easy for them.The exercises seemed to encompass a lot of VB functions, uses, and neat tricks. The explanations are complete, well thought out, and unambiguous. With little or no exposure to VB any programmer should be able to follow along.My next goal is VB.Net I hope Mr. Connell will write/has written a book that addresses it. Wrox should adopt his style for all of their text books."
267467,2,"The best comic in years, redux","This treasury is a good place to pick up the second era of Get Fuzzy strips, collected in The Get Fuzzy Experience and Blueprint for Disaster, again with the Sunday comics in full color, which makes it the better choice than buying both of those books independently. If you're new to Get Fuzzy, you probably ought to start with Groovitude, the first treasury collection, but this is more of the same hilarity, and it's bound to please all the old fans and maybe attract a few new ones. Get Fuzzy rules."
267484,2,I'm agree,"I'm agree with the guys downstairs.Abe here is great,the best work for My Name.To the guy who's looking for Rocks for The Jocks: here in Poland there's a polish version of it. It costs some Zloti,not much. If you want I can send you a copy of it."
267502,2,Beautiful and Creative,"I have always been a fan of Jewel's work, and this book solidified my place as a fan. Her poetry is beautiful and filled with emotion."
267516,2,Belkin splitter,This is one of the best audio splitters on the market its easy to use and works great.
267543,2,Brazen French Schoolgirl's Misadventures At Catholic School,"This semi-autobiographical book starred an absolutely adorable fearless adolescent girl who thinks herself very sophistocated & worldy in all matters. Colette's perceptions about adults from a child's perspective are frank, canny and hilarious. The first and best of the Claudine novels, though all of them are quite good."
267631,2,Inpiring and make you want to play piano!,I think I will need to read it again to have a better digestion of his theory. The part of the Un-master class is really interesting. I wish to attend one someday.
267672,2,Best Jerky,"I have been trying different jerky's and really love this one. It is turkey (healthy, low fat) and contains no preservatives or nitrates. Delicious!!"
267719,2,My Daughter Loves This Product,"My daughter gets headaches once in awhile and this product has worked for her over the past three years. She loves the grape flavor also. Unfortunately, this product was recalled. I can assure you that it is safe and effective. It has helped relieve my daughter's occasional headache or other aches and pains. It is the product that works best for her. She has tried at least five other similar products, but they are not as effective or she doesn't like the taste of them."
267828,2,Missing In Action The Beginning.,"I just recently viewed this movie again. I enjoy it more each time. I like action movies and expect to be entertained. The action of this movie and the theme of good over evil adds to the enjoyment of this movie. Some people are not only offended by the portrayal of how the Viet Cong treated our soldiers, but refuse to believe such war attrocities occurred.. Some pretty awful tortures were performed in this movie involving fire, rats and even Viet Cong whores being used to torture and humiliate the POWs. This is not for the squeamish who know nothing about war. But if you like action movies, this one is great."
267835,2,Good Night,This product works well but does not work nearly as well as Unisom. Take either in the evening and in 30 - 60 mins. I'm ready to sleep. This is much better than Unisom in that there are no lasting effects the next day. Unisom leaves me groggy much of the next day.
267883,2,Excellent Selection of Essays,"This book covers a variety of ELL topics. Each chapter presents information which is research based and immediately applicable to the classroom. I have used it constantly since being introduced to it four years ago.Topics include syntactic theory, pragmatics, reading research theory and assesment. It is edited by the outstanding researcher Bardovi-Harlig.This is an excellent book for TESOL grad students, ESL/EFL teachers who wish to expand their knowledge and those interested in becoming familiar with the jargon of the profession."
267895,2,Very Pleased Mom,I have a 2003 Mini Cooper which I adore. I did a lot of research to find the right car seat that would work for my daughter AND fit in the car. I found it to be easy to install and comfortable for a 4 1/2 year old who is constantly falling asleep in the car. She loves it - and I do too!
267929,2,"Love the ring,","I have the ring on my left middle finger as I type this, and I couldn't be more pleased with it. I note that someone wrote about theirs turning color. Silver will tarnish if you do not care for your jewelery. A little polish, and it's bright again! I have a hard time finding rings in my size that look nice, and Silver Insanity has provided me with three so far, all of which are very lovely. I would give the ring more than the 5 stars were I allowed. Perfectly formed Celtic Cross, nice fit, real silver. What more could I ask? Quoth the Raven..."
267943,2,Absolutely Awesome - A well kept secret that should be shared,"This is an incredible book that offers profound and inspiring insights on the nature of spiritual development and enlightenment. While I understand the reviewer who was put off by the racially strident commentary that the author sometimes uses, there is so much of value in this book that transcends it. Anyone who allows those limitations to cause them to disregard the deeper and more significant teachings that the book contains, is only cheating himself. As an author of a book on leadership, I think this book is a must have for any leadership library."
267957,2,Great read!,I absolutely love this author! Many twists and turns.. a real page turner! Couldn't put it down until I finished the book! Would recommend any of his books to anyone who loves a great story!
268044,2,Great Price,"This is a old, and hard to find at a resonable price book. I am happy with the condition, and very happy with the price I purchased it for."
268050,2,Nice Little Decorative Piece,Great little piece for the price. Super easy to assemble; light enough to easily move and sturdy enough to hold books and other items.
268059,2,Very helpful and easy to understand.,"I am the first time coach of a second grade boys soccer team. This book was very easy to understand for the kids as well as myself. For kids that are relatively new to the game it explains positions, the different kinds of kicks and the all around basics of soccer without getting too technical. It has been a great aid for our team."
268092,2,Love isnt'easy,"Love is not easy: not only attaining it, winning the heart of your loved one, but, most difficult and most important, keeping it. Too many, once they ""won"" the love of somebody, take love for granted, as an acquired boon. They're wrong. This book explains why.This book is all about the self-centeredness, the pettyness, the fear of loving that prevents love to take flight. But it's a recommended reading if one wants to avoid errors. Beware young lovers, where ever you are! Love is a many splendored thing...handle whit care!"
268145,2,Basic Information,This DVD is very good. It shows valuable basic information about Saxophones. It was very helpful!
268147,2,Noah's Ark Told With Whimsical Illustrations,"My 3 year old loves to ""read"" this story to himself. The pictures in this book are amazing! I thought that the book depicts the story well for children, and includes some of the more serious nuances of the story such as the facts that many animals were turned away and died in the flood and that whole cities were destroyed."
268211,2,Elegant and Simple,"This pedestal is a great buy if you're looking for space saving simple and elegant accent. Thanks, Robert J. F."
268266,2,They work,"Ice dams are quite a nuisance and are never in a rush to melt. These socks are more durable than DIY nylons/pantyhose and are easy to refill. The socks work the best when placed on somewhat wet, melting ice which helps activate the calcium chloride (this of course means that these work best in above freezing temps which I realize is not always possible...but they will eventually work in subfreezing temps). I will be interested to use these next year to prevent ice dams, rather than trying to melt them like I'm stuck doing this year. The attached cord is helpful and very easy to add a pull rope to for retrieval and repositioning purposes. The included velcro strips tend to make a mess of the sock and I've stopped using them in favor of just a simple knot."
268371,2,This really is my church,"I saw them a few weeks ago, playing live at USC 7 (a yearly rave in Seattle), and it was amazing. For the longest time I've been seaching for artists unafraid of chanting, and this is one of them. When I hear this record, it's like being able to hear God. There's so much beauty here, I'd die a happy man if I could just listen to this EP once more. (Also, for all you who are questioning the worth of this EP, it's over 50 mins long, so it's really worth your money)"
268372,2,Wow!,This chain is beautiful and looks great with the cross pendant I bought the chain for. Great quality for a small price.
268428,2,"Finally, the Voice of Sanity","Connie Neal has written a gem of a book that any parent or caregiver can use to help the child(ren) in their life benefit from the moral reflection available in the Harry Potter books. It is so wonderful to see a Christian using sanity, reason, and common sense in dealing with the Potter phenomenon instead of the knee-jerk reactions made by so many Christian ""leaders"" who don't even bother to READ THE BOOKS before they condemn them. Way to go, Connie. Thank you."
268449,2,The Diaper Champ is the best!!!,"When I found out I was pregnant, I ran right out and bought a Diaper Genie. However, after reading online reviews, the Diaper Champ seemed to receive better reviews...so, I exchanged my Diaper Genie for a Diaper Champ. Boy, am I glad I did!! No special refills to buy (I use plain old 13 gal. kitchen bags), and changing the bag is so easy! Easy to use, and I have had no trouble whatsoever with the Diaper Champ smelling at all! I highly recommend this product to all mommies - It's the best!!!"
268464,2,Wonderful diaper pail,This diaper pail is so easy to use. It doesn't smell and is easily one of the best baby products that we own. The best part is that we were able to use regular trash bags. I highly recommend this over any other diaper pail in the market.
268533,2,Great Book for Beginners,"I am new to Texas Hold'em poker and I recommend ""Poker Nation"" to other beginners. I could not put this book down. ""Poker Nation"" was full of helpful information and entertaining stories. It gives a good insight into the world of poker and would make a great addition in anyone's library to remind them of the fundamentals."
268547,2,Essential for those with Weak Bones.,"This DVD arrived 2 days after my order, Amazing!. Since birth I've walked miles, done every kind of exercise program through the years, Tai Boxing, Pilates, weights, yoga, eliptical, swimming. 5""5 124 lbs. in good shape except for a genetic osteoporosis.Lately my spine, neck, shoulders and lower back have ached even when I laid on the floor to do yoga.Thank you Mirabai for an accurate, motivational, strengthing DVD. I feel a difference in a few days, because I'm exercising correctly and not damaging my bones. I love it and would recommend to anyone who wants to protect their bones as they mature. Jane.Skeletal Fitness by Mirabai Holland - Osteoporosis Prevention Bone Loading and Strength Training Exercises:A Workout For Bones"
268588,2,A Must Have Book,I just finish this reading this book and I'm going to read it again. This is a really good read if interested in Interracial relationships. I love the idea of the characters (especially Yvonne and Michael).
268594,2,Growth,"This fine recording was made during a live performance in London in 2006. Having just witnessed a recital that included some of the same music but as heard in 2011 it is gratifying to report that this dazzling artist has continued to grow and polish in the five years since this recording. She still manages to offer rarely known works by Reynaldo Hahn and excerpts from Rossini's output for which she is the reigning queen, but listening to this CD again it is exciting to hear how her voice has developed into such a flawless instrument.This recital is performed with Julius Drake as her collaborator at the piano (her current exemplary accompanist/collaborator is the excellent David Zobel): DiDonato truly shares the stage with her collaborators and the result is music making of the highest order. This is a superb recording and belongs in the library o all those who admire this artist's work. By all her CDs: she is destined to be a legend! Grady Harp, February 11"
268787,2,VW 1500 & 1600 Type 3.,I recomend this book. It has specific data that I didn't find in other manuals. This manual has good pictures and figures and could be very useful if you want to rebuild a Type 3. Almost every thing you want to know about VW Type 3 is in this book.
268860,2,The Princess,"The Princess is a good read, but if you are expecting dungeons and knights and such and such, you don't really get that. However, it is an intriguing storyline. I would recommend it to anyone. In the Princess, the princess and prince have a hard time getting on the same wave length with one another when it comes to love, but by the end they get there. You will have to find out how on your own. At some points, I thought I would never see them together happily, but it finally ended and I wanted a sequel of their life together. It is a very good read."
268908,2,DON'T WAIT -- RUN TO GET THIS ALBUM,"Sometimes hyperbole can ruin the very thing it seeks to enhance, but I find it difficult to come up with enough words of praise for this astonishing album and the two artists who perform on it. Susan Graham is one of the top five opera singers in the world today -- her artistry and sensitivity to the music and text of what she sings is simply unmatched. That's why such an album as this is so extraordinary. Hahn was once a jealously guarded secret by those ""in the know"" -- he's a delight, and, now that he's becoming more well known, to have an artist of Graham's stature share these pieces is a special event. Listen to the first cut, ""A Chloris""; if your heart doesn't melt into goo instantly, then it could be you're a deaf space alien. The whole disc is this lovely. I can't imagine that anyone listening won't be thrilled that they purchased it."
268922,2,Great fun to make and play,"This was great fun to put together. We used it for a class project in a school auction fundraiser. We used fun pictures of each class member for the photo spots and their names and funny sayings for all the text. The kids loved it and it got good bids at the auction. At 24.95 it was a good value and looked very polished when we finished. Once we got our photos sized, the rest was a breeze to put together. We are going to do one now for our family with all the cousins."
268940,2,Menzies hit the nail on this one!,"Just like the Christian faith reacting to the notion of a 'mortal' Jesus, succumbing to 'earthly' pleasures, so thus the reactionary eurocentrists dismissing alternative history.Menzies's provocative work not only challenges 'common' wisdom but stencils the very notion that an Asian culture was several decades technologically superior to Europe's.Louise Levathes' ""When China Ruled the Seas"" is another great read on seafaring China."
268945,2,Lens safety,"I am Deployed to Kosovo, I feel that (if anything) the lens adapter is well worth the cost for the simple fact I dont have to baby the camera in a hostile fire zone. I can throw the camera down in an instant if the mission dictates without having to worry about damaging the lens assembly. I like that the camera if the second adapter is on the camera doesn't lengthen the camera to speak of. I have to keep the camera in everything from a back pack that is thrown into a truck and setting on the radio system in the truck. I feel the lens adapter will save me alot of money in repairs on the lens assembly in the future."
268954,2,Images of change: Paintings of I ching,This book of Terry Miller's paintings is a replacement for one I'd lost. I lived across the street from Terry and carry with me a compliment he paid me when I was a gangly girl. I'm thrilled to have his wonderful work again. V Glenn
268989,2,Gave As A Gift,This was a gift for my son's girlfriend and she was really wanting it. She said that she had used them in hotels and always wanted one.
269000,2,Great stuff,"Shop around for the best price. This product is the best I've used for removing copper from barrels, but sells for $9.99 direct from Barnes."
269038,2,A good introduction,"This book was written for the Cultures of the Past series, and is intended for juvenile readers. For being so small (69 pages, including the glossary), it does succeed in giving an overview of its subject. The book covers the Persians from prehistory, through the conquest by the Arabs in 642. It also describes their culture, covering such things as architecture, food and clothing, religion, and much else.This book is not perfect; indeed, calling Salamis a Greek colony on the island of Cyprus is a glaring error. However, this book has many excellent pictures, and its layout does make it a very good introduction to the subject. Overall, I do recommend this book."
269053,2,Rock solid hardware,"I love my nw8440. It's built like a rock and just exudes quality engineering. There is nothing cheap about it. I have dropped mine TWICE (both times a 2 to 3 foot fall onto carpeted flooring) and it never skipped a beat.The nw8440 is now discontinued but it's replacement models (all start with ""nw"" in the HP lineup) all seem to be built to the same standards. You pay a premium but you are getting a machine that is a true road warrior."
269077,2,"DON""T GET MARRIED",The title is the conclusion you will come to after you have read this book. The book is a fast read and entertaining but will jade your perception of marriage!
269181,2,Dazzling and young Baryshnikov,"A must-have for Baryshnikov fans especially for those who want to admire young Baryshnikov at the peak of his dancing and energy. ""Vestris"" is the highlight of the video, which is a very notable and genuine choreography and is a veritable mime class for dancers. The warning note from Gelsey Kirkland about being thin in ballet and anorexia is worth the attention."
269294,2,Good Stuff,"Although this book is a little dated most of the information is still good. The author has done his best to cover as much as one can in the fixed size of this style of book. He covers everything from what lenses to how to find models. This book was published prior to the digital age so some things are film centric and a bit aged but foundations and fundamentals never go away.Yes the outfits on the girls are 80's 90's neon and the hair styles are oh so big but beyond that the information is good.With the price that this book is going for, I say why not add Swimsuit Model Photography to your library it has some good tips for any one looking to get into taking photos of beautiful woman at the beach."
269317,2,Everything it is cracked up to be,"The other reviews are very accurate and I won't repeat them. I want to make only two additional observations. One, this is 99% a political history, a history of war, diplomacy, statecraft, empire and government. There is virtually nothing regarding art, culture, society, economy, daily life etc. The other more pragmatic note for potential buyers is the font of this edition is on the small side which makes for a long read for older eyes."
269351,2,Very Good,My first novella. I enjoyed this easy read so much I read it in 2 days. A Man's State of Mind is not your usual read about relationships. The characters are believeable. Chris I really liked the dedication. I am waiting for your next book. I like your style.
269408,2,A Christmas Classic,"This movie is a great follow up to the original Frosty movie. It's one of my grandsons favorites. Lori, New Mexico"
269452,2,MC Beaton just fab.,MC Beaton is one of my favourite authors and does a wonderful job with all her Regency novels. The Poor Relation books are amount her funniest and I just wish there were more to read.
269473,2,Great Kids Music CD,"After listening to lots of wheels on the bus and other typical kids songs, this was so refreshing. The songs are fun for kids and adults to sing along, especially with artists like Cake, Guster, Barenaked Ladies etc. I re-purchased this CD after we lost the first (forgot to back up on iTunes..). I also really like Barenaked Ladies ""Snack Time"" as well They Might Be Giants ""Here Comes Science"" for those looking for other recommendations."
269513,2,Not just about dieting,Surprised to find this wasn't only about dieting. Some good advice about how your body works and what it needs to stay healthy. Worthwhile I think.
269527,2,Abnormal Pap smears?? Not anymore!!,"After the pain of going through several colposcopies for low grade abnormal Pap smears, I started taking DIM after seeing a web site that said it could help.After taking it for six months, I'm normal!!No more abnormal, no more colposcopies.If you have low grade abnormal Pap smears and your doctor isn't helping, I highly recommend taking this!No side effects, only benefits!There is help and I've found it!"
269562,2,getting better and better,"Well Marit and Marion have come along way since Shades of Purple. The New Album is much much better. Better Vocals Better Lyrics, Better MUSIC. M2M wrote all but 2 songs on the CD and they co wrote those 2 and it just sounds great. if you are a M2M fan this is a MUST buy, If you are just interested in M2M just listen to a clip of a song and you will want to buy the cd, yes its that damn good."
269588,2,perfect 1080i,"going form and LG blu ray player to full HD DLP projector via an HDMI switch and about 125ft of cheap non-name-brand cable works great at 1080i. 1080p introduces digital snow, but possibly a result of the switch. can't remember if it might have been a bit cheaper when i got it a few months ago, but works as advertised."
269642,2,Nice item with Canada map,"If you want a GPS with Canada map then you can't go wrong with TomTom, I purchased two of them for my sisters up in Canada and they love it.However, I regret buying the unit from TigerDirect. Beware of purchasing stuff from TigerDirect, I purchased 2 TomTom One Xl and within 2 week they dropped the price another $20 per unit. When I called for a price adjustment they refused to give me one, their reason is the item number is different.What Tiger direct does is they change the item number so that they can call it a different item even though the product is exactly the same. This way they don't have to refund/adjust your money. I never had a problem with Amazon on price adjustment."
269650,2,TomTom One XL - not quite 5 stars,"Just bought it and used it in areas unknown to me - both on the interstate and in the boonies.The spoken directions were not clear EXACTLY where to exit - sometimes saying ""Exit ahead ""- but not ""Exit Here"". Sometimes it becamme clear that ""ahead"" meant the next exit and sometimes it didn't. That was really frustrating.In the boonies - it actually was better and clearer what the prompt meant.Not sure if the extra 1/2 inch of screen was worth the extra $100."
269673,2,Grandson loves this book,"My 18 month old grandson loves this book. He insists on it being read to him, usually 5 times in a row at each reading session."
269706,2,IPOD touch and secured network,"I rec'd a DIR 655 router yesterday and was unable to connect with my IPOD using a secured network. I called customer service and they eventually told me the IPOD would not work with WEP or WPA security settings. It worked with no security enabled.After some pondering, I changed the security settings to WPA Personal on the dlink router page: [...] and was able to log onto my now secured network with the IPOD without problem. Customer service was wrong and lacked basic information on the appropriate security setting.The claim of 6 times greater range seems specious. I had an old Dlink VPN router which did not reach my basement or the other side of my house (1st floor) from the 2nd floor. This one seems to have about the same range (and bars) notwithstanding boasts to the contrary. It is faster, particularly with a direct plug-in connection. I will still need an extender which I hoped to do without."
269760,2,The Perfect House,"This is a great Indy Horror movie.It take you into the lives of three different families living in ""The Perfect House"". This movie is not for the faint of heart,there are some gruesome scenes."
269830,2,"Clear, Concise and REALLY FUN TO WATCH!","This is a fantastic version of TAMING OF THE SHREW. For anyone who is interested in really studying the text (and hearing it spoken correctly), this is the version for you! The actors speak clearly and loudly and the main point is that they completely understand what they are saying - (yipee!) They also have an uncanny way of ""speaking the speech"" which gets it across to the audience as clear as day. You dont need to understand 'Shakespearean verse' to see this performance. The actors breeze through this with ease and simplicity and look like they are having a blast - which I belive they are!"
269897,2,Love this phone!,I have only had my KRZR for a month now but I love this phone. I am able to get a signal in once dead areas and the battery life is amazing. The only small detail that is a little annoying is that its hard to keep the face plate clean.
269941,2,So much better than other books recently read.,"Fascinating, well written book. This is a book of literature - about more than just the story yet the story is heartwarming, beautiful and sad all at the same time."
270032,2,J.R.R Tolkens creation rocks!,"I had no idea what the ""Lord of the Rings"" or ""The Hobbit"" was like until I watched the movies and read what books I could get my hands on. I watched the movie and fell in love with the plots, characters, and stories. This is a definate must see!"
270213,2,Son loves it.,I bought this after seeing the Pixar Short Films on tv. My son loved these. I was expecting to see all of the short films that were on tv but this only has half of them. I didn't pay attention to the description which lists all of the shorts and is missing half of the ones on tv including most of the Cars Toons. It still keeps my son entertained. Now just waiting for them to release the next volume.
270424,2,awesome,"wonderful if your a fan of indie art film and off the beaten path.. i could definately see why it was harder to watch if you arent a fan of the subtle odd humor...however i enjoy films where the quiet type is understood...the stop motion animation is great, as well as the soundtrack. id say if you enjoy films like napolean dynomite..punch drunk.. amelie and other love stories... odd relationships are the best..this one fits right in...i wish there were more movies like this...if you happen to know of them, please inform me.."
270435,2,"great water quality, but construction can be improved","It's a real good feeling to drink just plain H2O, knowing and tasting there's none of the chemicals in there... The water that comes out of this distiller tastes great, I love it. It certainly does the job well, however, I think there's quite some room for improvement as far as the construction of the machine goes. There's that ""made in china""-feel to it, but that's ok for the price - it works and it makes the impression it's solid enough to run for a few years. And I'm already totally hooked on distilled water!"
270498,2,for advanced Sanskirt readers,"Although I can see the frustrating aspects of the 'vocabulary' list approach utilized in this work, I still find great utility in the collection of Sanskrit terms associated with each English lexical entry. Translating Sanskrit often places one in the 'tip-of-my-tongue' situation where you can't find just the term you're looking for. A book such as this provides a Sanskrit thesaurus, if you will, to provide just the needed lexical categories in said situation. I would recommend this book for any serious translator."
270516,2,It Works and Was Clean,Came with extra bags and belt. Works so far. Would rather have a bagless with hepa filter--but for the price and the built in duster/cleaner-I thought it was worth a try.
270556,2,They work,"I used these to replace the rear brakes on my 5 year old Trek 7.3FX. It was my first time replacing brakes, but with a little help from some online tutorials I was able to replace the old brakes and adjust them surprisingly easily. As expected, there's a huge difference between the old, worn out brakes and these new ones. I just ordered another pair to replace the front brakes, as well."
270562,2,MISTAKEN NUPTIALS,"Yusaku can't seem to make up his mind who he really likes. He loves Kyoko but she never really shows any interest in him. So his only current alternative is Kozue, and he's on the verge of breaking up with her, that is, if she IS his girlfriend. Ah, things are getting complicated. And just being in her company is sending Kyoko all the wrong signals. Speaking of wrong signals, in a moment of misunderstanding, the other occupants of Ikkoku tell Yusaku that Kyoko is getting married to the big hunk tennis coach Mitaka which might just cause a final rupture between her and Yusaku!Volume 3 of this funny but warm-hearted series is excellent and falls right in line with Takahashi's other masterful installments. The art has more of a western feel and should appeal to any reader. The characters are the real stars as usual and breath with humanity. Their reactions are obvious, and because of this, human. Great book. Great artist and storyteller!"
270671,2,Terk HDTVa antenna review,"The Terk HDTVa antenna did the job I purchased it for--to receive with reasonable clarity my favorite local TV station(WMAZ, channel 13 in Macon,Ga.), some 30 miles away. To get the best reception, you must keep experimenting with different antenna positions."
270698,2,A fun read,A fun book... great character development and an interesting story from one of sci-fi's best current authors.
270728,2,What a way to end a long 20 book read!,A satisfying end to a literary journey I am so happy I undertook! This book could be read as a stand alone and be equally as fulfilling as well. Wow. Good stuff!
270770,2,"Great Cable, does the job","The cable does not give static when plugged in to any port, which makes it ideal for listening to music on any device where you need a little more cord length. The cord itself is durable as I've seen. Unlike most which are about as thick as headphone wire, this one is about as thick as Ethernet cable. The only complaint I have is that the silver caps on the end can unscrew off, so just be a little careful when plugging in. It the unscrew just screw them back on, no big deal. Overall a great product for the price."
270799,2,Easy Reading,"Good plot, nice characterisation - an easy enjoyable read.Let down somewhat by dodgy editing in places."
270840,2,The Brit Is Right,I really enjoyed this movie from the music to the producing. It is worth seeing and will be worth owning when it somes on tape.
270848,2,Required reading,I read this book years ago and it still stands among my top three books of all time. I'm sorry it wasn't required reading during high school - I would have come away from graduation with a much more meaningful understanding of the growth of my home state.
270879,2,Pure Western Delight,"Wagon Train, The Complete Color Season was an absolute delight! Super value for super, wonderful, pleasant entertainment. It is the best DVD purchase value I have found in a long time.If you love westerns or just like to remember when, I highly recommend purchasing Wagon Train, the series episodes, both black and white and color! If you are a Robert Fuller fan,this is a must to have!"
270918,2,Clearing up the confusion,"This CD is the reissue of The Magic of Christmas, which was originally released in 1999, that now includes three new songs from the made-for-TV movie Call Me Claus. The three songs removed from the 1999 version to make room for these songs are Go Tell It On the Mountain, God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen and White Christmas-- all of which appear on Garth's first holiday release, Beyond the Season, from 1992. So, if you have Beyond the Season and don't already own the 1999 version of The Magic of Christmas, then this version is the one for you.You will not need the 3-song Call Me Claus single UNLESS you have the original issue of The Magic of Christmas and actually care enough about Garth's holiday tunes to track it down."
270953,2,a visual treat,"I was really looking forward to this book. And, I have to admit it was not quite what I was expecting. I truly enjoyed the paintings and reading about Paul Auster and his strange and interesting typewriter. But, I expected more in the way of reading. I took the book to the gym, expecting a nice long read. Sadly, I was finished with the book before I even broke a sweat, and that was a dissapointment. The writer is such a creative and imaginative storyteller, full of surprises. I wanted him to reveal more, to tell more and weave this story into something I could really sink my teeth into. But, the real star of this book is Sam Messer and his wonderful paintings. Perhaps I would have enjoyed this more if it were presented like a *big* art book, with large pictures, and plenty more of 'em. Really, I shouldn't complain. Ihe book is super cool, and definately worth the small amount of money I parted with to enjoy its company."
270970,2,So Good!,"These are the songs I grew up with. Fell in love with, and out of love with, but always loved Stevie's masterful style and soul. He is a true Wonder."
271005,2,Gentle :),Very Gentle yoga work out. It does challenge you and get you in poses your not used to and has you hold them. It's a really good work out for yoga :)
271050,2,Wood pile cover 50x24x36,Inexpensive and does the job. Not the sturdiest material but represents excellent value compared to other products doing the same thing.
271190,2,Awesome book!,"I had the hardcover of this book, and broke the binding, thus loosing some well-used recipes! So I had to get the ringbound edition!It is one of my favorite books for cooking. Along side the ""Staple"" Joy of Cooking!"
271225,2,Blast from the Past,"I am an oldie but goodie myself. I have all of his albums on LP, yes, LP's, and am trying, little by little to replace all of my lp's with CD's. This is one of the finest albums I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. Leon Russell truly rocks. I think this album is the best of all his albums."
271309,2,Fun at a good price,My son received this for his 5th birthday. He has played with it on and off for almost a year. It is very easy to put together and seems to stand up to normal playing. The pulley with the attachable bucket seems to be the biggest hit. We have actually taken the leaves off so that you can play on the top floor better. The branches have wire in them so you can shape them some what to how you want it but for him they were still in the way. Great comparable to the much higher priced one and that one has also been discontinued. I would definately recommend!!
271343,2,Best Prayer resource,"This book arrived in excellent condition, no tears or writing, and is a really wonderful resource to have on hand. I absolutely love these prayer books and have multiple copies."
271405,2,"I call it my ""Seepy Sip""",I used to awaken to a soggy pillowcase from sleeping with my mouth open to breathe because of nightly build-up of mucous. Then I tried Boericke and Tafel Nighttime Syrup. It breaks up the congestion so my mouth stays as closed as my pillow is dry. Now I take a little sip before I go to sleep (hence seepy sip). Very tasty.
271443,2,Excellent Rebuttal to the Darwinist Deception,This video collection is extremely well-made and should be shown to every science student. It completely demolishes the theory of evolution through scientific axioms and evidence.
271490,2,Works Fine,"I bought this for my mom. She likes it quite a bit. It provides more amplification than she needs.I also bought her the ""Stealth Secret Sound Amplifier"" and she's decided she likes that one a bit better - sound is better for her and her hair hides it pretty well.Both devices amplify the surrounding sound, so I suspect it's completely dependent on her precise hearing loss."
271512,2,First ever country CD,I love this CD. The songs are peppy and the lyrics are great. Her voice and range is amazing
271536,2,very impressive!!,"Carrie Underwood impresses me in every way on this album. Especially on track ""I just Can't Live a Lie"". It's just soooooooooo amazing! I can listen to it all day! I had high expectations and she exceeded them! terrific production and planning.. somebody is copying my review. They will not go to heaven!"
271556,2,Outstanding response!,"Received within 5 days; outstanding service. Product received exactly as noted on Amazon website. Excellent book for anyone out there who is just getting into EKG interpretation (nursing students, paramedic students, etc.)."
271583,2,As described,Wedding favors for a 50's themed wedding. Big hit with everyone there old enough to know what they were.Popped up the center of the lid and used the box as centerpieces on the tables. They looked great.
271585,2,Great game but a bit hard,When I picked up this game I thought it would be easy. It isn't true. I'm currently stuck at level 4 and can't find the way to finish it. It is a very hard game.
271593,2,A fun children's book!,"My kids love this book, and I love to read it to them. They really enjoy the active imagination that Skippyjon has; I really enjoy that it exposes them to Spanish. Our oldest has actually started branching out into other Spanish-language titles. Our 2 year old just loves the drawings. A fun book for the whole family!I agree with the previous reviewer that a knowledge of Spanish is helpful. The only minus I would give the book is that it would be nice to have a pronounciation guide at the back for the Spanish words."
271613,2,acoustic to the max,"I bought this after hearing the single ""barely breathing."" Let's just say... my mind was blown. I'm a true Sheik fan, which means that I'm looking at his songs critically. I liked all of them so much, but I didn't like november that much... just a little too... I dunno some people thought it was pretty. Days go by is one of those tunes that grow on you. I love it now but hated it when I first heard it. if you like good acoustic music, buy it. http://www.mp3.com/zia"
271624,2,sink your teeth into this !,this film is the best vampire and fighting film I have ever seen and the soundtrack is superb too but warning all tracks are not on the soundtrack CD!!! im making a movie ( vampire please email me with your ideas )
271792,2,One of the funniest 90 minutes you will ever find on DVD!,"Christopher Guest and Eugene Levy have done it again. I still prefer Waiting for Guffman (I do community theater in Missouri...I'm biased!), but Best in Show is a photo finish second.The characters are so flawed, funny, and endearing, (Even the Swans...in all their preppy idiocy) you can't help but love them. Hard for me to pick a favorite out of this ensemble cast, but I'd have to say the performances of Jennifer Coolidge (We both love Soup) Michael McKean (No quote, but his best stuff was left on the cutting room floor which thankfully is included on the DVD)or Fred Willard (To think in some countries these dogs are eaten!). All do a great job, but if you don't laugh out loud at least once with each of these characters, nothing will amuse you.Much better to buy this and rent it, because it will be viewed enough to make up for the amount you would spend on rental fee after rental fee."
271809,2,I like these a lot,"they are sturdy, have decent sound quality and fit my enormous noggin. Also, I note that they seem to almost completely seal you off from outside sounds, like the telephone or somebody talking to you-- a good thing in my estimation, although I suppose others may not care for this aspect."
271836,2,Here's my mixed review on a good product,"I'm German/Dutch -- blonde hair, blue eyes, light medium tan. This product is the best self tanner I have ever used. It does not smell, it does not streak. I look super dark while the tan is ""soaking in"" but then it washes off. BUT, that may just be my own skin issue. Lately, I have not tanned well in the tanning bed either. I also used plastic gloves which works -- ok, but I'd recommend the mit they sell to apply it.the plastic gloves may be the problem too. Aside from my skin not ""taking"" the tan as much as I'd like, overall it's a great product. I'll try different application methods or maybe apply more to see how that goes but I'd definitely still recommend this to others, as I understand everyone has different skin types."
271903,2,great for preventing stones?,"My cat who was only 2 starting having symptoms of blocked urinay tract. they wanted me to make my boy 'into a girl', after much treatment for this they put him on special food,,he still had blood in his urine, and thank God I checked online,,I found this product and he is ""peeing ' quite well with no issues...however I did give him a homeopathic remedy for a few months while he had issues, but this remedy is all he gets now, and for the past few years he has had no problem,,thank God and he is now 7!!!"
271948,2,"Good service, excellent product",The product was received very quickly at an overseas APO and was completely advertised. Would utilize this vendor again.
272018,2,Classics,"This DVD shows you the past, present, and future of country comedy, but unlike some other tribute DVDs, this one features clips that everyone can relate to. My kids laughed through routines by Don Knotts and Jim Varney before hearing material from new comers Larry the Cable Guy and Ron White. To top it all off there is outstanding performances of Foxworthy and Engvall in Las Vegas to close it off. It sure is a classic!"
272073,2,Pugster rocks my italian charm world.,"I bought a bracelet for myself and my sister. We went crazy buying charms on amazon (and other websites). Pugster is by far the best when it comes to first (and most importantly) quality, prices, customer serivce, fast shipping. I bought a couple from other companies and it was hard to even see what the picture was. This company has all the details very defined on each charm-where as others can be blury or muddled looking. I am very pleased and will continue to be a repeat customer. Go to their website directly for shipping discounts and special deals."
272143,2,My dogs love it!,"My dogs practically knock me down to get to their beds to eat now! Helping with the joints, I have slowly weaned them from anti-inflammatory meds. Easy to use in the pump bottle. I have 3 dogs so I haven't had to worry about it going bad or anything. Would recomend to anyone with older dogs or dogs that could be prone to joint problems and back problems."
272144,2,Dogs with sensitive stomachs,"I have two boxers. They both love the Grizzly Salmon oil. I have a 6 year old and a 1 year old boxer. My one year old has a very sensitive stomach to food and treats. She also was starting to get spots on her head where she would loose hair. After a month of using the Grizzly oil everyday. The hair has grown back on her head and she has not thrown up. I recommend this product for healthier skin, fur and dogs with sensitive stomachs."
272188,2,Test For Echo By Rush,"I am a huge Rush fan, so I love all their cds, but this is a definite favorite."
272211,2,saved my peeled face moistned and refreshed,This mask is amazing it moistened my skin right after a 50% lactic acid peel. It helped me heal and my skin looked radiant even though i had just peeled. This is a super moisturizing mask if you are oily like me do this in the morning and if you feel too greasy after do a light wash with just water and a very mild soap. It can break you out if you have build up on your skin. but it is truly a dream cream mask!!!
272222,2,Higher Quality Than Expected,"The canvas is thick, and the seams are very durable. Much higher quality than the vinyl grill covers sold locally at much higher prices."
272228,2,Totally Satisfied,"I found this cover to be a beautiful, heavy duty, great fitting addition to my grill. It is easy to remove and replace. We have had strong winds since I purchased it and it remained perfectly in place. I agree with the other 5 star ratings that convinced me to choose this one from Amazon.com."
272263,2,What the Expendables should have been...,"I have enjoyed the resurgence of legitimate actors filming action movies. Action movies aren't high art, but having the likes of Helen Mirren, Brian Cox, and Morgan Freeman make any film better. Their roles made the film fun, unpredictable, and satisfying. The action scenes are over the top, but they don't overshadow the characters. This is where The Expendables missed the boat. Highly recommend this movie!"
272278,2,A devotional guide from the heart,"In this book Dennis Jerningan reminds us that Christ always has a plan for us. He reminds us also that God wants to ""sing over us"" and even ministers to us in our sleep. Combining his own story of freedom with Biblical insight, Jernigan makes the promises of Christ new and refreshing."
272322,2,Good but I've heard better,"Ok, so I love the CD, but I've watched the VHS over and over and later ordered the CD hoping for the same. It was great and I know it doesn't have the same performers, but the tempo is way to slow! I loved the fast, action, suspence that's found in the Video. I'm a little disappointed. I know the creators of the Disc could have made a better recording. I still give credit to the wonderful work that is givin on the CD."
272323,2,Awesome Musical,"This is just about the best musical I have seen and heard in a long time. This summer it played at the theatre in my hometown and I saw it twice because I couldn't get enough of the WONDERFUL music in the play. The character of Henry Jekyll/Edward Hyde is such a demanding role vocally and I could not believe how effortlessly Todd J. Allen (watch for him on Broadway - my hometown theatre helps actors earn Equity hours - and he deserves Broadway)went from Jekyll to Hyde! Also, an interesting fact about me - In December of 2001 I sang with the Magic of Christmas and one of the guest singers was none other than George Merritt (the original John Utterson in this recording). Just to let you all know, he is super nice and has a wicked sense of humor :)"
272327,2,I liked this Episode beacause it was very exciteing.,I liked the part where data gets a call on his comm//saying the magnettic grid was detiriorateing.Then they had to Evac.Ship with the captain and will in the holodeck.
272395,2,Bands Like These Guys Don't Come Along Too Often,"I actually bought this CD after onlt hearing ""That Song"" and wasn't sure if they'd be good. Boy, did that gamble pay off. This is one of the best CD's I have ever heard. Big Wreck jams like few bands. And Ian Thornley can wail. Excellent CD even for anyone who appreciates music."
272518,2,Squirrel stop,With the Squirrel Stop and a chain between it and the feeder to avoid play in it.It's great!
272524,2,A gift for Dad,He loves Nora Roberts & he is thrilled with his new set. He couldn't wait to get home to listen to them.
272642,2,Beautiful Shoes,"I bought the bronze pair and I've been getting several compliments.There seems to have been some mixup with the shoe. Though I ordered the 7 1/2M and the box says 7 1/2M, the shoe is labelled on the inside as 8M. It actually fits perfectly like a 7 1/2M so I'm not sure what kind of mixup happened, possibly a printing error in the shoe.The shoe is advertised as leather so I was disappointed to discover that it is fabric and man made materials. Amazon delivered on time as usual accompanied by excellent tracking service.Overall great pair of shoe, very elegant and comfortable."
272678,2,Page Turner,"This is the second book continuing Tim Rackley's adventures after his involvement with the vigilantes who double crossed him and cost him his career with the US Marshal's office. This time he gets involved with a cult based outside of Los Angeles. I could not put this book down. I was happy that Rack could continue to heal after his daughter's murder by putting his energies into rescuing poor little Leah, who could not leave the cult on her own. Great book! I am now reading The Troubleshooter, which is the third book in the series and just as much a page turner as the first two books. I love Gregg Hurwitz books. Great, fast and exciting reads!"
272724,2,Princess Diaries,Always a pleasure to watch Julie Andrews in a movie. A truly classy lady and a wonderful performer! The transformation of Anne Hathaway from dowdy to elegant is also a pleasure to watch.
272732,2,The Princess Diaries,Bought this movie for a 14 yr. old girl for a Christmas gift and she enjoyed it very much. The movie came very quick and was carefully packaged!
272787,2,good ending,"This series has given me many nights of delight. I loved reading it and look forward to other works by this author. The characters are well done, the action exciting. I especially liked the interplay of the main characters, if definitely helpted the story to move along.If you like books like this one, might I suggest another I've recently come across. The Unsuspecting Mage by Brian S. Pratt. It's another fantasy adventure sure to please. I highly recommend it."
272948,2,Introduced to dt with this album,"It was fantasic from...""6:00 in a christmas morning..."" man as soon as this album started I hear the drums go crazy and I thought ""whoa ok they got a good drummer but how about the rest of the band?"" I got totally blown away by the rest of the band. Definetly recommended"
272985,2,Sure Gave Me A Lot Of Jumps!,"I just watched this last night,and I really liked it. Very creepy,and made me jump,a lot!Sometimes I wasn't sure about who was a ghost or a living person,but that just made it better.Very interesting and original story,about an unusual Chinese cultural belief.One of the best Ghost story movies I've yet seen.Right up there with another of my Asian favorites ""A Tale Of Two Sisters""."
272986,2,Cereal Murders,"As always, a light, fun to read, mystery with a great ending. I always enjoy how Goldy Bear is able to help solve the mystery and end up without getting severely injured."
273010,2,A good book overall,"This book is essential to someone who needs pictures (I do not). Should this be the case, and if you plan on rebuilding one of these transmissions, I strongly suggest you use this AND an ATSG manual....and you cannot go wrong. The ATSG manuals is the best, the ONLY, and it's the real bible....but there are no pictures. Once you've done one, you don't need pics, but if you do....the Haynes is the one to buy, and they are cheap! If you have both, you should be OK. I strongly recommend this manual for the price, it would be worth it for twice the money. I have no real use for it, but I wanted to see one for myself and I am quite impressed! If you are not a seasoned transmission guy, buy this, you won't regret it. I am not a fan of the Haynes manuals, but they did a nice job on this particular one and you certainly can't beat the price!"
273014,2,La Femme Nikita (complete 5 seasons),I have always enjoyed the show on TV. It is super great to have the series in hand and watch when I want to or go back to a scene.Great series
273040,2,Excellent!,"Love this product! Have used it numerous times, and it works wonderfully, and cleans up well. A must for any cook. As suggested by other posters, replaced knob and this solved any heat problems! Thanks other reviewers!"
273106,2,Very Interesting Series,"I really love Ancient Aliens and look forward to each season coming out on DVD (as I stopped watching TV in 2007). The only thing I was disappointed about season 4 is that it seemed like there were few episodes. But it is a great and interesting series, that asks more questions and gives possible explanations. I hope the show continues."
273342,2,Great speakers at a great price!,"These speakers look and sound great! I recommend them to anyone who likes to entertain outdoors! Easy to install, easy to use! You can't beat the price either!"
273353,2,Franklin talking dictionary,"This is a terrific product for all types of learners--auditory, kinesthetic, and visual. My son voluntarily looks words up. There are many features for the money and the color of the unit is terrific, too!"
273363,2,"Always go for ceramic, but these ones are dusty, dusty, dusty.","I discovered the benefits ceramic pads years ago, and am convinced they are the best pads to get. I typically go with NAPA ceramic, as they are a good value for the price.This time I chose Akebono since they have a long proud history of ceramic pads in Japan. Most other ceramic brands are of Chinese manufacture, from companies that did not exist 5 years ago, and wont be around 5 years from now.After less than 3000 miles, I can tell you these are as DUSTY as less expensive pads. I brake hard, so they perform well, no fade. But they are dusty. I now notice that Akebono are the only pad that does not specifically advertise ""Low Dust"", so I should have guessed. Good pads, but if I had to do it over again, I'd go back to NAPA ceramics."
273391,2,No problems in 5 years,"Aside from the swivel head seeming a tad fragile, the thermometer has worked flawlessly for five years and counting. The non-stick probe (except for the tip) makes cleaning easy. Just stuck it in a fried turkey today and the reading jumped to 180 deg. F. in less than a second."
273397,2,Works well,"Bought this Fax for a remote field office that has only one line for telephone and fax. Transfers calls from answering machine to fax automatically. Replaced higher cost ""big name"" fax machine that did not switch the calls well. Office has low volume of calls and fax's."
273439,2,Great product,"This is a fine thing to have--makes yogurt into a semi-soft cheese. How that tastes is influenced a lot by the yogurt itself. A note re previous review. If you use warm yogurt (not finished thickening if you've made it yourself) of very thin yogurt it WILL run through the sieve. The answer? Use correctly thickened yougurt--this is not meant for keifer. A great product, well make and easy to use and clean. Get one."
273503,2,Microsoft points,"Was having problems with adding points to my gamertag. guessing Microsoft was having issues with their end, so I turned to amazon for points. Had my digital code within minutes and was watching the movie I wanted."
273521,2,Bible,After reading Living Faith I then can go to the bible quotes that are at the very end of that days reading. It help to make more sense out of what the author of that day's reading is talking about
273525,2,Interesting and mind-refreshing!,"The authors approach the various existing business dilemmas using the conjunction of game theory, competition and cooperation in a very amusing and practical way. The lessons learned in this book go beyond the typical framework of though, encouraging the achievement of win-win situations in a complex scenario. The numerous case studies presented allow a quick understanding of the covered business topics."
273547,2,"Canon Mini Tripod 7 is a ""STAR""!","I needed someone to hold my camera one day and I was the only someone there. Lost the shot. I searched and found this little gem. Sturdy, well constructed and small as can be. I carry it in my ""go"" bag and never notice it 'till I need it. It's there. Easy, fast and reliable. Great purchase!!! I wish everything I bought worked for me this well!"
273622,2,"A funny, brutal look inside the movie making business.","This is a funny, brutally frank autobiography of a Hollywood insider who made it quickly to the top (The Sting, Close Encounters of a Third Kind, Taxi Driver) and her slow agonizing trip down to has been. Julia Phillips tells a sometimes painfully comic tale about her Hollywood life, her neurotic friends (naming names), her sex life (naming names) her drinking and her drug addiction (free-basing cocaine long before Richard Pryor). Her writing style is similar to Hunter Thompson, manic and self-centered but then like Hunter Thompson, her life has been very interesting so maybe the similarities make sense."
273641,2,Unreal,"I bet the last person who posted was first in line to cash his 6 bucks though right? Make some sense dude, seriously. Your crying because you say you didnt get enough back, well how much in taxes did you PAY into before the tax credit!? Thought so.Good book overall. Sean has alot of topics correct. Sometimes I cant take his strong conservative beliefs. Sean, take a breathe once in a while will you!? A little too much preaching but overall a good read."
273662,2,Another Liberal is Hannitized,"Excellent use of factual data to make a compelling case about the negative effects of appeasement in today's small world. Also, Mr. Hannity provides an excellent historical summary of many of the important events in American history including a great root cause analysis of the reasons for past American (mostly liberal) failures. This summary also negates many of the errors in our NEA revisionist American history books. Shame on other liberals...get off the fence!Consider me Hannitized!"
273694,2,The French Bulldog: An Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet,"This is truly a must for anyone interested in French Bulldogs, especially newcomers to the breed! In the author's presentation, she made it evident about how much fun Frenchies are, but spelled out all of the concerns an owner should have. Great subject matter and coverage, but concise and simply stated! The last part needed to be directed more toward the French Bulldog, not just a generic application. This section did not take anything away from the book as a whole. I will use my copy to read and to share with others that are new to the world of French Bulldogs! This book is well worth the reasonable cost!"
273696,2,Excellent Introduction to VHDL,This book is an excellent introduction to VHDL. It covers a wide array of basic commands as well as their benefits and short-comings. It also covers more powerful commands which are good for large projects or creating reusable pieces. It also comes with a rather old program and examples that go along with the text of the book. Definitely a must have for anyone just getting into VHDL.
273697,2,Lovely,"Love the stories on this DVD. Angelina is a sweet, soothing show that is good for calming and entertaining little ones at the end of the day. My 2-year-old twins enjoy seeing Angelina dance. I like hearing the British accents as well."
273723,2,Great Novella,"It doesn't get all philosophically preachy like the later series does, but instead settles for being just a great story. But it's short, novella length. Personally I paid sixty cents for my copy at the closing of Borders, which seemed like a fair deal, so I can evaluate the work on the content without feeling cheated about overpaying (seems a theme of other reviews).The story itself revolves around a bone, representing a debt owed, featuring a 'normal' perspective character interacting with Zedd, during the conflict of the Midlands vs. Darken Rahl, pre-Sword of Truth. It's twisty and emotional, and I did enjoy it. If you like Terry Goodkind's writing around book 2-4 of ""The Sword of Truth"", you'll like this."
273742,2,Awesome,Overtime my skin has become smoother and more even toned. You start seeing results after the first use. Ive been using this products for about 3 months and im glad i found it.
273752,2,Great fun by someone who's been there,"A former publisher of Desert Magazine gives many brief looks at the mythology of the Southern California desert.Very entertaining and great fun, if a tad short for the price."
273753,2,Good Book for the Most Part but Possibly a Key Missing,"I found this book quite interesting. The author has some good answers to the questions and he does a tremendous job of defending the Pre-Tribulation Rapture. I strongly disagree, however, that the United States is Babylon in Revelation 18. The author needs to scrap that thinking."
273754,2,Review of Makita Battery,This product more than satisfies my need for a replacement battery for my Makita 12 volt impact driver. I received the battery on time and was exactly as advertised.
273772,2,Inspiring story,"I enjoyed ""Welcome to the Rileys"" very much. I didn't remember ever seeing the previews for this, but recognized the stars and decided to give it a shot. Very inspiring. I'm one of those ""things happen for a reason"" people, so this was right up my alley. I'd recommend it to anyone."

273847,2,The Spirit of Broadway--Excellent,"This is a a lively, spirited, entertaining, old-fashioned Broadway-ish recording, with absolutely wonderful singing throughout. I cannot think of a better cast--everyone is great and really takes on their role entirely. And of course, the songs are excellent! This should be on the wish list of every Guys and Dolls fan, and if you are not yet familiar with this musical, then this is the recording to begin with. Simply first-class all around . . . theater music at its very best. Wonderful."
273866,2,"Love, Love, Love It!","This album has blown me away every time I listen to it. However, seeing them live gives you an even better appreciation for it. I look forward to eharing this album every Christmas season. It always puts a smile on my face!"
273880,2,Danger and difficult decisions evolve,"In the near future three siblings are caught on different levels, between warring parents and a collapsing society. When their father devises a vacation for them, they don't suspect they're really being kidnapped and that an off-planet goal is the ultimate destination - when they do find out, danger and difficult decisions evolve in this fast-paced science fiction story which is especially strong on building the characters of three very different brothers."
273909,2,Watch is wonderful,"I ordered this watch on the 1st of October and it arrived on the 3rd. The watch works as the description says. I still haven't figured out how to adjust the metal band but I've only had it for two hours!As for the watch itself, it has many features and the setup is user friendly. I'm impressed with the design and I enjoy the four alarm feature. I would buy another one of these if this one ever breaks."
273910,2,Good watch,Watch is quite good. Only problem is its big dial which I think is not much suitable for a person with small wrist.
273912,2,i love casio watch,i gave him a casio watch my husband a and he liked itbecause have it many aplication and it is beutiful
273918,2,This Horowitz CD presents two important recordings.,"For the Horowitz lover or the Liszt devotee, this CD presents two important recordings. First, from Horowitz's late period, is the Ballade No.2 (1981). None of his late recordings better displays his legendary dynamics, tone coloring and melodic lines than the beautiful pianism in the Ballade. Second, from the period shortly before his ""retirement"", comes his justly famous performance of the Funerailles (1950). The titanic, octave-pounding, super-bravura style of Anton Rubenstein demonstrates the immense ""sound"" and emotion that made the young Horowitz world famous. The rest of the disc offers lesser performances from his later years, during noticeable periods when his technical skills had declined temporarily. The best all- Liszt CD available is Jorge Bolet's recording, ""Franz Liszt, Favorite Recordings"" (London, 2CD set): superb throughout, unmatched in the over-all scope of the pianism."

273947,2,I Really Like This Watch,I needed an inexpensive watch to wear when I was working outside in the yard or doing other chores. However I also wanted it to not look inexpensive. This watch is just what I was looking for. For less than $20 I got a well made watch that also looks like it cost a lot more.
273951,2,Excelent value,"Excellent watch for the price. I bouhgt it for everyday use at work (shop) and for $20 is a great value. I don't have to worry abouth scratching it since it was really cheap. I still get chronograph, alarms, etc."
273959,2,Mine needed a little extra help,"This was bought to contain and restrain my garbage can. My house now definitely looks neater without the can blown all over the lawn.The spikes that came with it did not adequately stabilize it. After one storm it completely collapsed. Now that it has been stabilized with wood that has been attached to the house, it is living up to my expectations."
273997,2,Time keeps on ticking,"The metronome, the passage of time. The dying animal, in the form of a libertine professor, obsessed with sex, passionate about art. The book is a novella more than an novel -- focused, sometimes rambling -- oddly enough in the plot sequences, and sometimes gripping -- mostly in long expositions about free love or morality. There are some gems here, some thuddings. The plot is outrageously predictable and mundane but we forgive the old man when his language soars. The ending feels like Roth never quite new how to end it, but this is a problem originating in the beginning, he sets up an overwhelming obsession with C. but the it peters out, and we don't feel the main character is driven by it, thus to turn the story on this point, at the end, is lacking. I disagree with the reviewer who suggested this is required reading -- it's like Ford's short stories, momentary, sometimes solid, sparking in moments. A flame burns brighter and more consistently in other works by both authors."
274004,2,Excellent pan for your everyday baking and cooking needs!,"I LOVE to bake, so my pans endure a lot of use and abuse. I typically have to replace my 9x13 pans every 4 years because of the amount of scratches and marring on them, something that shouldn't happen to pans (in my opinion). However, since purchasing this pan almost 3 years ago, I'm thrilled every time I bake! There are no signs of scratches, wear, or rusting; it looks like new (unlike the one I purchased at the same time, which has tons of scratches)! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the silicone handles on each side which insulate the heat from the potholder (and my hands) and make it comfortable to hold. Everything seems to bake evenly and I have never had to grease this pan as the food comes out cleanly and smoothly. If you need a durable and functional 9x13 pan, look no further than this one!"
274058,2,If you like creepy...,"This movie, as expected, is creepy. Those kids made me want to re-consider having my own. It's a good movie and it has good actors. If you're a Mark Hamill then check out his portrayal of Revrend George. If you like creepy then by all means rent this movie, if you get scared easily, I wouldn't recommend it."
274059,2,Excellent brand,Had this watch for almost a year now and there are NO scratches and its looks almost new. Looks like this watch is going to last a long time :)
274097,2,The best fantasy I have read since Tolkien...,"In the first three books of a Song of Ice and fire Martin has achieved what seems to be so elusive among today's fantasy writers. He develops round, realistic, human characters that, get this, you will actually care about. You will see nobility in villains and cowardice in heroes, set against a fantasy world that is both gritty and imaginative. The separate stories in the book are incredibly engaging and well written. Just like the real world, anything can and does happen in Martin's novels. Much to our dismay sometimes the good guys do die. Unlike obviously designated tragic figures of other fantasy novels you won't be able to tell which characters live or die, which I found to be incredibly refreshing. I cannot wait for the next installment of the series, as I have found these novels to be the best I have had the pleasure to read in some time."
274120,2,Yuen Woo Ping and Donnie Yen,"This Martial Art movie deals with the Iron Monkey, Wong Fei Hung, and his dad played by Donnie Yen. This is kind of a Chinese Zorro movie. Wire fu at its best.."
274163,2,Comprehensive and inclusive; if a little conservative,"The main reason I recommend this is that it presents many points of view. Often the authors come down on the more conservative side (as another reviewer correctly points out), but the authors do give space for the various viewpoints to be explained and manage a pretty good job of separating their opinion from others (there's a fair few ""although most scholars believe X, we still feel that Y""). Cross references are good, the writing is clear, and the articles cover most topics, with a leaning towards theology rather than basic explanation. Recommended for scholars and people willing to think through many points of view!"
274217,2,READ THIS before putting together,"I was not sure how to get those little plastic pieces marked F together around the legs of this unit until someone showed me that there is a small line on the inside of each piece that has to line up with one of the lines on the legs. Then they clip quite easily. Before I knew this, I was trying to line the top of the piece with one of the lines on the legs and it would not clip together. After I was told about lining up the lines, I had this thing put together in 3 minutes. It's a good shelf but it has instructions (with no words) that left out a few details."
274317,2,"Raise your voice, too!","A gathering of voices well known in the library field and some -- like Pat Schroeder and Barney Frank -- known everywhere. Each contributor chose a quotation that offered courage, inspiration, or strength in the face of adversity, to keep the Word free, open, and accessible. It is interesting to note how often Thomas Jefferson and James Madison turn up, but the essayists quoted writers from Toni Morrison to Jimmy Walker, from Pogo to Audre Lorde, from Voltaire to Barbara Tuchman. As a contributor, I found my voice in a quote from Ursula K. Le Guin. Give this to your library board, to your Friends group, to your Teen Readers. Talk about it. Think about it."
274342,2,Excellent product!!!,"We ordered this prior to going on vacation with our 2 year old who is accustomed to sleeping in a toddler bed. Not only was it easy to assemble, it kept her safe!!! We now have it assembled at my parents' house for whenever we sleep over. EXCELLENT product for the price!!!!!!! It's very easy to take down if you don't want to leave it up."
274383,2,Loved It!,"I just love Debbie Macomber books! This was my first book on my new Kindle! Great story lines with a bit of drama/adventure, lots of romance, and hope for the future! Great read!"
274403,2,"Not as good as the hype, but still amazing!",Halo 3 has stunning HD graphics and amazing sounds. The multi-player is great. Great game for anyone who likes FPS! I recommend it!
274453,2,Makes my 14yr. old Westie act like a puppy!,Half the price of what my vet charges! My dog is 14 and in great shape due to diet and lots of exercise but last year he started not to be able to jump on my bed ( I know.....) and wouldn't play Frisbee in the snow & cold temps. I could see he was hurting a bit. I did my research and asked my vet and breeder-- they both recommended this brand. It has worked wonders-- he's back on the bed and played Frisbee in 20 degrees for almost an hour today -- pain free. Doesn't work for everyone but it worked for us.
274474,2,Excellent,"I checked this out of my library, and I love it! I want my own copy. Watch the queens arms, it's unbelieveably expressive! Has huge cast. This is a much better Swan Lake than the Royal Ballet version. I have it and want this one MORE!!"
274555,2,Neat!,Wonderful tool! Knitting options abound and the pictures allow great glimpses of what can be. Recommend to anyone interested in caring for loved ones.
274579,2,This is what this book is about,"Sarah and Harriet have led parallel lives ever since they went to boarding school together. Now, in their mid-fifties, they are widowed within three months of each other. For Sarah, who has her own business and soon finds an attentive older lover, widowhood is a release from the sterile snare of marriage. But beautiful, flirtatious Harriet feels like nothing more than an unemployed wife, a woman alone in a dangerous world, a woman no man will ever love again. As Sarah and Harriet gradually, painfully, come to terms with each other and with the men they buried, Shelby Hearon gives us a novel that is at once compassionate and wry, sorrowful and deeply warm."
274638,2,A Must-Own DVD!,"I took two of my grandchildren to see this in the theater and knew that it would be a must-buy DVD. We laughed our way through every hilarious scenario.It's doubtful that the casting of this well-written script could have been any better: Richard Speight Jr., Stelio Savante, Elijah Rock, Barry Corbin, Audrey Matos, and Irma P. Hall all join forces with great results.Scriptwriter Gray really did a masterful job with this family-friendly flick. Hopefully, Gray will continue to exercise his talent in this scriptwriting arena.BOTTOM LINE: Buy the DVD...and buy extras. They'll make wonderful gifts! Enjoy!"
274648,2,Her best work and that is saying a lot,"Incredible though this may seem, i seem to like this album even more than ''Like a Prayer' or even 'Erotica' which I never thought she could top. 'Ray of Light' has got to be the best Millenium disco song i have heard and 'Frozen' is definitely the best ballad I have heard this year. Now if only she could learn how to write lyrics that are not so trite. I recommend listening to the album over and over again until you do not notice the awkward embarrassing sentence constructions like 'Children killing children while the students rape their teachers' which is my vote as one of the worst lines she has ever sung. Still Excellent stuff and these are minor glitches. Recommended- very highly."
274682,2,I read it in 2 evenings.....Not Bad....,"Having read some of the other reviews and the less thanglowing comments, I don't agree with most of them. True,this is not the ""normal"" Zombie story that we have beenreading forever. I like the way Mr. Bourne differs fromthe ""format"" many have grown used to reading. This storyis written in the form of a journal and I find that aninteresting and different view of a Very Bad New Worldthe writer finds himself in. Is it a ""text"" book way toteach us about how to survive in a Zombie World, NO it isfiction for crying out loud. I like Zombie books of ALLkinds and have already ordered the next 2 in this series.Am I ready for the Zombie Invasion of 2012? Not yet butI am getting there. Are You? Something is coming our way,and remember Zombies come in MANY WAYS. Enjoy this story,or is it indeed only a story....."
274702,2,good tool,"tool works great, the case is cheap and was already ripped when it arrived at my house. i would definatley recommend this tool"
274717,2,Perfect for 10lb Min Pin,"I purchased a set of these steps several years ago, and they've held up great. I just got another set and use them for my bed and sofa. They're the perfect height for my use, and Nefertiti (10lb Min Pin) uses them all the time. It took her a bit getting used to them, but now it's like second nature. They are made of plastic, but plenty sturdy enough for a much heavier dog than mine. I'd definitely recommend these to anyone - you can't beat the price and they're quality (the first set I bought is about 5 or 6 years old now and still like new)."
274751,2,Shirley's,Like the product. I drive a lot on military installation where talking on the phone will result in a fine so it works well for me
274833,2,Moving - Highly Recommended,"""Arlington: In Eternal Vigil"" is a moving look at the history and significance of The Arlington National Cemetery. This documentary was sent home with my son as part of his AP US History class homework and we ended up watching it as a family.This is very well produced and covers much more than the more famous memorials and notable figures laid to rest in what was Confederate General Robert E. Lee's estate, but also includes lesser known facts about other memorials to be found on the site. There are poets, artists, explorers, former slaves, and even Confederate soldiers interned at the site.The interviews, photography, and videos were all tastefully complied to make this both educational and meaningful for everyone that is interested in American history. One of the important facts I learned is that Secretary of Defense can see the cemetery from his office, which is constant reminder that there is cost to keeping us free.Highly Recommended!CFH"
274910,2,Engrossing,"This is an excellent lightning-paced suspense novel. Keene takes on a tone and style that will surprise those who only know his work through the RISING/CITY OF THE DEAD books.Keene takes about two pages to win you over, as the main character, a hard-luck young man trying to support his family in a PA town with a desolate economy, is diagnosed with terminal cancer. Things then get seriously messed up when he decides to provide for their future by going all out.The dialouge is dead-on, no plot holes found, this is just a great read. All lovers of dark fiction with heart should check this out."
274939,2,Gee Bee,"A very informative book about a very special group of airplanes. Clearly building the replica plane (and debunking a few myths about the original) was a labor of love for the authors, and it shows."
274941,2,EVERYONE MUST HAVE THIS BOOK,"As a composer this book is getting worn out already! Kurt Stone compiled all agreed modern notation for things not seen before 1900, it also has all acceptable current forms of traditional notation. If there is a standard notation for something you are trying to do compositionally it is in this book."
274994,2,WORKS!,"I don't care what you have read or seen about this product........Please know it does work! I wish insurance companies would offer a discount to those who have them on their vehicles. From the ""Piney Woods"" of East Texas through the ""Natchez Trace"" and down the Coosa in Alabama, I have personally seen the effectiveness of this device. All it does is notify the deer you are coming down the road....they don't panic and run but simply raise their heads and then continue chewing their cud. Remenber: Sometimes a solution is so simple most reject the idea.....cause it sounds Hokey......But like Jesus, this is the real deal!!!!"
275057,2,"Oh, yeah...","I can't do this album justice...a great fusion of jazz and Malian roots players, resulting in a world jazz album that is just a joy to listen to...Ms. Bridgewater's voice is beautiful, soothing, seductive, acrobatic...sometimes all at the same time, but the real star of this album is her vision in putting together such a significant piece of work..."
275062,2,RED GLOVE COLLECTION,RED GLOVE COLLECTION By Karen Kinbsbury.Recieved book great condition. Book arrived when AMAZON told me it would be. Book was read cover to cover. It is a collection of four books. I looked forward to getting back to each story. All four books tugged at my heart I did laugh cry and thank the Lord for my many blessings. Everyone should read this collection. I will pass the collection onto my daughter.
275080,2,Buy This Album!,"Masquerade Overture is Pendragon's best album - as well as one the best albums of all time. ""Guardian of My Soul"" will empower you and take you on an incredible trip. And be careful - when you listen to the ""Shadow"", your hand will unresistably wander toward the volume button and crank it higher as the song plays. The music is outstanding and every instrument in this band is outstanding. If you've never heard Pendragon, get Masquerade first."
275139,2,One of the best blue tooth,"It's light, comfortable to wear. The only down side is that it does not have a range. You need to stay within a few feet of your cell phone to get the good signal."
275147,2,The best mini-grill ever!,Got this as an apartment warming gift for my sister. Cooked a Tri-tip that day and came out great. Small size fits the patio well.
275155,2,Good place to do business!,"I was pleased to do business with this company. They were prompt, mailing the product, I received it very quickly, and it works perfectly. I would not hesitate to do business here again."
275195,2,Songs to sing with,"i was given this disk as a gift. now it is one of my favorite to listen to. It builds me up when i am down. The singing is great. there is no one outstanding singer, but many good ones on one CD. I enjoy the variety of the songs and the types of praise in them. i can sing along. My Deliverer is one of my favorities, but it is hard to choose. Each song has something inthere for encouragement. Love it a lot."
275248,2,Charge your IPod anywhere you go.,This is ideal for vacations. No need for an IHome or computer to charge your IPod. It works great for travel as well as at home.
275281,2,A Different Type of Thriller,This complex novel kept me wondering what was going to happen. It was beautfully written and so different from the typical mystery. The characters are all wonderfully engaging. The ending was not shocking nor was it what I expected. I look forward to more of this type of writing
275338,2,Great advantage,"Wonderful mapping capabilities from the software.The dashboard mount works wonderfully well. We are using it with the weighted mount, no physical attachment to the dashboard."
275351,2,small film ... big surprises,"We watched this film based on the rave reviews it is receiving, and the oscar buzz around it. We were not disappointed. Although the cast is unknown, their performances are outstanding. Great film!"
275399,2,A fun look at fishing--and murder,"An interesting mystery in a beautiful setting and populated by interesting and believable characters. The slow courtship between the retired dentist and the lady police chief is a nice subplot that enhances rather than distracts from the whodunnit aspect of the book. Also, a nice look at life in a small town. I recommend it!"
275407,2,Great Bargain!,"I've used these a few times when I suspected I might be pregnant and the results were negative. It's a fantastic bargain if they work and I have no complaints yet.8/22/09 Update: I used these for a few days before my period was due and each time it was negative. The day it was due, I took another one and was about it throw it away but thought I saw a faint line. I took a pregnancy test at a local WIC and it was negative so I thought I was imagining things. But the next day I took another to be sure and it was the tiniest bit darker. So I went and bought a test that says, ""Pregnant or Not Pregnant."" (I love those tests. They're so no nonsense.) I was pregnant. I guess I can't complain too much about the test strips but I am used to pregnancy tests telling me a day or two before hand that I am definitely pregnant. I didn't like the uncertainty of it. But I will use them again. They're so cheap and if I don't have the money for a store pregnancy test, I know they will work....eventually."
275594,2,wee ride,"love the seat, hate that amazon made it appear that the bar didn't come with it, now i have an extra bar that it completely unnecessary. next time, i may look on amazon and buy somewhere else."
275697,2,"In the words of the kid on the Chris Moyles show, Fantastic!","If you're American, you're reading this and you think Oasis are the best British band around, BUY THIS ALBUM! You may not have heard of them (yet) but The Stereophonics are a unique band with a unique sound and this is a unique album - the level of consistency from track 1 to 13 is unbelievable. You won't see or hear American bands like this, ever. Even if you're not American but you like Indie/soft rock music, take a chance on this album and I guarantee it will be the most prized CD in your collection. On the other hand, if you prefer dance music....go elsewhere!"
275717,2,It's like having a team of therapists in your pocket!,"""The 60-Second Shrink"" is an absolute gem of a book! Unlike many pop psychology or self-help books, ""Shrink"" can be delved into at any point, beginning, middle, or end and is written in plain and easy to understand language. The advice in this book is terrific - the authors have done an excellent job of distilling the essence of effective, psychological wellness methods into brief, easy to understand and apply ""psych bytes"" that can each be read in about a minute. ""Shrink"" is like 116 doses of sanity and would make a wonderful gift for anyone. I can't think of anyone who wouldn't thoroughly enjoy and benefit immensely from it. Consider it an indespensible guide for anyone serious about imroving or maintaining his or her mental health."
275722,2,Holds up to West Texas winds and heat,"This tarp covers a section of a pool deck located on a ranch in West Texas. It holds up well to the almost constant West Texas winds in that region. As in ""ANY"" tarp you must proPerly install it as to tension. Also the white color works great for our Texas sun 105 degree days, (MUCH COOLER THAN SILVER) and will not fade."
275731,2,Hannah Montana The Movie,"I am the proud father of 3 little girls, all of whom are Hannah Montana fans, so of course they loved it. Oddly enough, I enjoyed it as well."
275738,2,excellent and entertaining,"this product is a good value for money, very good english dubbing, complete collection and great screenplay, very good story and very funny."
275752,2,Great for study/den,"Bought this for use for a) pictures,b) mementos. Nice board, it is now covered with pics, always in use.Probably will buy more for office use."
275782,2,This CD rocks!!!,"""Soundtrack to Your Life"" is such a great CD. the songs are fun, catchy, easy-to-relate to, and all-around great. Ashley has an awesome voice, which makes the CD even better than it already is! I think everyone can relate to his music. Some of my absolutely favorites are ""Soundtrack To Your Life"", ""Crazy Beautiful"", and ""Who Cares?"". I love this CD!!! I recommend everyone buy this album!!! You wont regret it!"
275838,2,The best sleep aid I've ever used,"I've tried the pills, the dissolving pills, and now the spray and I have to say this melatonin spray is the best so far. Just a spray or two (don't forget to hold it on your tongue for 30 seconds) and you'll start feeling drowsy in about 5 minutes. Since it contains natural orange oil there is none of that unpleasant artificial taste. Also, make sure you really can dedicate a full night's sleep. I once used this to get to sleep fast, but felt something of a melatonin hangover because I had to wake up in about five hours later. Use this product only if you want a full night's sleep."
275865,2,NEXTEL BOOST PHONE,GREAT PRODUCT THAT IS AS GREAT FOR NEXTEL AS IT IS FOR BOOST INSERT YOUR SIM & GO!
275897,2,Gin Blossoms Raw and Rough,"Sometimes raw and rough just means poor production or lousy musicianship. Not in this case. This early Gin Blossom disc is certainly less polished then New Miserable Experience (which contains 4 ""Dusted"" tracks) but it is raw and rough in a good way. To me, this cd has a much more country feel to it. Alt/Country that is. The guitars remind me alot of early Old 97's. One track, ""I can't sleep"" sounds like it could have belonged on the Long Ryders first record. I think if the band had gone in this direction rather than the sound of ""Congradulations, I'm Sorry"" then they would have been right in the Alt/Country discussion. If you like the Gin Blossoms and you are a fan of Alt/Country then pick it up. You will not be disappointed."
275900,2,Quirky visuals add to a fun story.,"Enjoyed this movie mainly for its highly imaginative visuals and an engaging story. Celebrity voices are always a nice touch, and it was funny to hear two late-night hosts lend their talents to this particular picture. The storyline, though a fairly by-the-rules effort, was carried by a quirky, non-conventional concept of the world through eyes of a lab assistant to a mad/high-tech scientist."
276068,2,Sort of an addendum to the Sin City series,"Typical Frank Miller, sort of follows the Series. Illustrations are up to snuff, but the storyline is a little odd. Still, very readable."
276103,2,WOW,WOW This is like so like THE BEST video ever!!!!!! I love it. Like more than bugs and snakes. Ew!
276138,2,6--Year-Old (and I) Loved It,"My six-year-old son brought this title home from his school library. We read it together several times, and one night I found him meticulously copying a page from the book. My son hated to return the book, and I knew I had to buy it--for both of us! It tells a little-known story about Washington in a charming, beautifully illustrated manner that everyone (especially dog lovers) will love."
276165,2,$30 Film School is Great,"It's a must have,every film maker should have this book on their shelves. Thank you for making it happen Mr. Dean"
276228,2,"Soap drys skin, wrinkling cream makes skin soft and eye cream is light = small package",I was expecting something a little more massive than these tiny creams... but what can I say... got this for less than $20... expect less. This is a good package if you want to try it out. I wish they had little samples that you can buy for $10... just to check out if you like it or not.
276246,2,Idk,I didn't they gave me this book. It was a lot of pages that was boring but hey the good part about it was I got smart yah! I am a genus. If wanna be a genus read this book but that is all I have to say about this I mean it is not a book it is a really long dictionary I ever read before.
276279,2,good book,"This is a used book when I bought it. but for me, it is perfect, defenetly like a brand new book. They said damage cover,but I cant find what and where is the damage. Its perfect.The book itself gives an inspiration. the shipping is fast enough."
276308,2,Great to Have!,My husbands's family has an original copy of this book chronicling his family. It is great to be able to share their history with the kids at home!
276396,2,Great Toy,"My kids use this toy at their daycare. My 3 year old got it as a gift. All 4 of our kids fight over it --even the 14 month old. It is a great toy/puzzle. It's a much better choice than all the other ""commercial"" toys."
276413,2,Great Movie,I wasnt expecting much when I started this movie. It was a great surprise. Loved it and have watched it numerous times.
276430,2,One of my favorite cookbooks,I use this cookbook quite often and haven't struck out with one recipe yet. The soups are particularly good.
276486,2,Better than a regular popper!,"My husband loves popcorn more than any other human being on earth. He's worn out several of the old-fashioned electric kind, and they all made a mess, splattering oil all over the kitchen counter, walls, etc. I bought him the Presto PowerPop primarily to contain the mess to the microwave--but not only is there no mess to clean up, the popcorn it produces tastes much better than the popcorn made with the StirCrazy popper he used before! (We're using the exact same brand of corn.)I heartily recommend this popper, it pops nearly 100% of the kernels, makes a perfect amount for two people to share, tastes great and is easy to use!"
276495,2,Like this alot,I have used this now for about 10-15 times. The popcorn pops really quickly and comes out great. The only bad part about the product is having to purchase the liners . They need to come up with a permanent one that you can take out and clean to reuse.Judy M
276630,2,It worked!!!,"Through this video I learned how to channel an incarnation of my past life. In fact, I will try channelling him right now....Hello, me Grok, me cave man. Me hit wife over head with stick and drag to cave. Me eat entrails of wooly mammoth. Me try to eat live bees but they sting mouth and tongue grow to size of 16 ounce prime rib. Me take Seven Habits of Highly Effective People seminar and now have goal of discovering fire."
276755,2,Absolutely Fantabulous,I read this book when I was a child and LOVED it. I remember the thrill of seeing that HUGE loaf of bread and the jam. Sent my imagination soaring. Then there was the satisfying end to the bees (I was terrified of bees as a child so you can imagine how thrilled I was at the end. =D) I think it was my most favorite childhood book.I found this book in the library some years ago and shared it with my son (now 12). I've just bought it to share with my younger son...and my older one is THRILLED. =D We both can't wait for it to arrive.
276778,2,"Fun for many players, smooth game play, brings back memories","A good game. It is one of the better multi-player games and worth the investment especially if you have people to play with. Very smooth game play & I hear the graphics get even get even better with the expansion pack. One draw back, it is a little short. We beat it pretty quickly. For fellow twenty-something players...it brings back arcade memories! Happy gaming!"
276812,2,An Excellent Translation of an Excellent Game,"The first time I saw Resident Evil 2, I was at a friend's house. He owned the original Playstation version of the game. I was completely amazed by the depth of its story and graphics. I thought that the Nintendo 64 was not capable of running the video and other graphic effects. Being an N64 owner myself, I was disappointed that I would never get to play this game at home. Then, Resident Evil 2 came out for the N64. It is an excellent translation of the Playstation version, and then some. The graphics are crisper on the Nintendo, the sound is better, and there is absolutely no loading time. The story is all there, as well as all the original characters. Capcom took one of the best games around and made it ten times better."
276843,2,In the Gravest Extreme: The Role of the Firearm in Personal Protection,"Great book. Factual, a must read for anyone even thinking of carrying a gun. It covers a multitude of info from the basics to the extreme."
276861,2,The Breville 800 JEXL,"This is one of best juicer on the market for the dollar, it is easy to clean, you can juice everyday easily, its fast and professional, it will not do wheat grass, I have a Super Angel which cost me almost a $1,000, the Super Angel takes out more juice but its not significant enough for a busy person to worry about, I have recommended it to several people, lots of women with cancer want to juice this juicer is efficient. I think its a well kept secret."
276895,2,A journey from horror to hope,"Well, again, a book documenting human destruction being visited upon mother earth, but one that takes a cultural perspective based in anthropology. It seem that in this case, Thom understood he'd be preaching to the choir, and so he decided to focus on a good, inspiring sermon (at least in the second part of the book, the first is a little too much horror all at once. Not to say it was unintentional.)The corporate crowd spent the 90's denying that there was any such thing as a greenhouse effect, and now that it's too obvious to ignore, they're denying we are causing it. Okay. Why not just human up and figure out how to do things better? Consider the effect on the next seven generations. Which is to say, forever."
276916,2,Banging Sets,"Bobby Womack dropped two tight albums. Bobby Womack vocally was on point&Musically He bringing the flavor. the first Poet Album had the classic""if you think your'e lonely now"". Secret was bumping as well. when Bobby says just like Kentucky Fried Chicken I always crack while I'm eating on a Drum stick LAWWD Hav Merccy!! Both Duets with Patti Labelle are on time as well. Bobby Womack is a very slept Soul brother.vocally he is still bringing it. always been a tight Musician&all around stylist."
277007,2,Still intact!,"Great Frisbee and the dog loves it! Usually my labs will rip through a typical Frisbee and tear it to shreds; not this one though! It doesn't have the same 'float' as some of the lighter Frisbees and I'm trying to train myself to throw it better so my retriever can catch it before it hits the ground - we are slowly making progress! I'm hoping he gets good at it so he will learn to catch ducks out of the sky the same way. Heck, since this Frisbee has a little more heft to it, maybe it will prepare him to catch geese out of mid-air too!It does appear as though rover loses sight of the Frisbee in flight sometimes - i'm not sure if that's because it is white and more difficult to see when looking up at the sky, or if it's just because he is a rookie... time will tell. In any event, I'm happy with the purchase!"
277017,2,Great for Sedimentary Rocks,"This rock hammer would be a great addition to a geologist's tool kit. Mostly, however, I would only use it for sedimentary rocks with rather lower scales of hardness. The blunt end isn't the most useful edge to use when breaking rocks, but again would suffice for weaker rocks with rather lower hardness. The hammer is about 6 inches from chisel end to blunt end. All in all a great tool to own. Estwings quality is unmatched."
277030,2,Fun and Hysterical,This book is so fabulous. It's very fun reading for parents (who'll get more of the jokes then the children). Which makes it reading enjoyment for everyone. Sense of humor required.
277078,2,"Wanted to see what the ""controversy"" was about.","As a fan of tenor, Roberto Alagna, and having some knowledge of ""hypogylcemia""( with which he was apparently struggling), I was interested in this production. Roberto is extraordinry in the lyric repertoire. This was a venture into new territory. The lyric repertoire serves his voice more ideally than ""Celeste Aida"" but the remainder of the opera was a beautiful and nuanced performance, with a very moving tomb scene. I remain a fan of his and appreciate the whole cast and performance. We have a world of ""armchair"" critics and singingconnoseurs with an inability to factor in our vulnerable human condition and the vicisitudes of life. This is most especially true where the singer's instrument is his body, which applies here. We demand a lot of these artists wih their jet-setting schedules, and yet are quick to spit out disparaging remarks and ""boos""."
277134,2,Good Journey DVD,"Good song selection, wished they has reworked the sound a little. video could use some reworking, sound is just stereo."
277160,2,Awesome pan,"Having never owned a cast iron pan before, I loved the fact that this one was pre-seasoned and made in America. Though heavy, it performs well as long as its properly taken care of and used. The two handles offer improved control and usability. Perfect pan for all types of cooking."
277351,2,"Where are you hiding, D?","If you like TMBG, you'll love this. If you don't, your kids will love this. It's a no-brainer. Great, rockin', hummable stuff."
277412,2,Exciting New Challenges!,"I really enjoyed this expansion. The new ""ring"" spells were great. Just sit in the middle and shoot arrows at your opponents. The Monk character was also a great addition. He's a little wimpy at first, but can do some serious damage as he goes up levels.Some of the new monsters are quite challenging. There's a new ""dungeon"" that pops up in the field outside of town filled with some seriously nasty bugs. I did a lot of saving and reloading.If you're a big fan of the game, I think this addition is worth every penny."
277455,2,Joyful Noise,if you like feel good movies with comical overtones? This is the movie for you. This is something I could watch over and over again. Dolly Parton has a hit with this movie
277541,2,NOT the wrong title,"This film is not ""Z"", another great film by Costa Gravas. ""Z"" takes place in Greece, and ""State of Siege"" takes place in Latin America. Both films are highly political. I believe that ""Z"" is the superior film, but Costa-Gravas is a master. I hope it will be re-released soon."
277565,2,"even for original instrument crowd, this is just perfect","Even the most fanatical ""original instrument purist"" should give this one a listen. Though apparently played on modern instruments, these are nearly perfect performances in every way. Warm, appealing charm that captures the real spirit of these optimistic pieces from the Renaissance. I have modern & ""period"" performances of the Renaissance ""Terpishore"" dances which open the first disc, and some are quite good. However, this collection outshines all the others. Also bravo to DG for the great remastering. For example, any trace of noise seems to have dropped away completely leaving clean, enthusiastic performance. These musicians clearly honor Musicality above anything."
277598,2,When is the next film?,"This is a good representation of the first book of the trilogy. I'm looking forward to seeing the second installment on the big screen. I'm sure it's going to be a bit more complex to edit the material to 2 hours given all the material. However, I can't wait for the next movie!"
277654,2,This system ROCKS!,WOW! What a BLAST! This system really beats the compitition. If you are still sceptical about this system then rent it from Blockbuster or something. The hardware may not be as good as the Playstation 2 but the games are and so is the price!$!$!$!$!
277675,2,the most addictive game I ever played,"I love this game, it's based on real life situations and it teaches me how to do stuff like take care of animals, take care of my property, how to cook, how to take care of a family.It's a lot of fun, it's all about farming, you start with nothing and work your way up to becoming prosperous, you grow your veggies and raise animals and then you sell them, that's how you start making money and then you buy more properties or more animals, and so on and so on.I can't put this game down, can't wait to get the new one on 7/27This is the best game ever, my brother also got one so he has his own farm now."
277736,2,Awesome Cover,"I bought this book, just for the cover...i keep it in my cubicle to scare small children"
277747,2,"Simple, Effective Sharpener","I was concerned by many of the lukewarm and negative reviews, but took a chance based on the reasonable price. Glad I did. This sharpener puts good points on standard pencils with little effort. Simple enough for my kids to operate. I'm sure it's not the finest sharpener money can buy, but it is a good sharpener for a good price."
277763,2,Fun and Entertaining,"A well-animated classic forgotten by most. The ending, as was typical of its era, is somewhat disappointing. But that's probably just because I'm a Christian. The story is simple and kid-friendly; and it encourages children to use their minds. This is a good gift or a good addition to any animation collection."
277785,2,"The ""Area 51"" series remains strong","Robert Doherty's fifth book in the ""Area 51"" series is just as strong an entry as the other four. Doherty (a/k/a Bob Mayer) continues to weave a very imaginative and entralling story about the role that two warring alien cultures played in the development of life on planet Earth.The protagionist of the series, Mike Turcotte, is his heroic and overall ornery self again in ""The Grail"". The other now-familar names to the fans of this series all play important parts again in this book.In simple terms, let me say that fans of this series will not be disappointed! If anything, ""The Grail"" is actually a stronger and consistently more entertaining read than the two previous ""Area 51"" novels - The Sphinx and The Mission. The Grail recaptures a lot of the cameraderie and action of the first two books.The ""Area 51"" is a book series that allows the reader great escapism. The always-imaginative Doherty has done it again!"
277918,2,Answers Questions Everybody Had!!,"Thought the book was an excellent follow-up to the original movie, and answered questions such as what happened to Denham? What happened to the skeleton after the Empire State fall? Are there any more like him? Very quick read, enjoyed it completely. Fans of the original movie will like this very much"
278012,2,Great humor,"I saw Kathleen Madigan on a Comedy channel show and enjoyed her comedy enough to buy her DVD.With nothing but summer re-runs on TV, this DVD provided a great alternative and a lot of laughs.If you like Kathleen's humor, you'll really enjoy the DVD."
278058,2,Pondering American History,"This book was eye opening. There are few books that can transport a reader through time.. When I was a Slave, has done, just that. There is nothing like the simplicity of a personal story told by the person who's experience it was, to give it impact and authenticity. It was this book which gave me a clear sense of the severity and condition that the american slaves were subject to. I am a white American. I am touched so deeply by all of these stories. It's as if, Each of them were my great grandparents sitting by the fire telling me stories of thier young years. the anger and Sadness the joy and happiness in spite of conditions , direct my soul to seek understanding and sustain a vigilant guard to recognizing hatred, condeming hatred and clipping the roots of hatred when it sprouts up in this world. I may not be black but this is my American history too. The pain I feel for my fellow Americans is truth."
278076,2,Great,"Love Holly Madison & missed this show when it was on TV. So glad I found the DVD's and was able to purchase them grom a great seller with a good price. Have loved watching every episode of Holly's World! Wish the show was still on, especially now that she's pregnant!"
278101,2,An experience not to be missed,"I've been a Celtic music fan for many years, long before it began to turn up on the New Age charts. While I don't mean to knock that genre (which has given some splendid traditional musicians -- e.g., the O'Domhnaills of Nightnoise and Alasdair Fraser of Skyedance -- the wider listenership they deserve), traditional Celtic music is an altogether grittier, funkier breed.Ciaran Carson brings a poet's sensibility to the performer's-eye perspective of Irish music, from last night's fun to the next morning's rude awakening. Irish music isn't simply the tunes themselves; it's the old-timers who performed them, the instruments they played, the pints of Guinness, the choking smoke in the bar and the pouring rain outside, and Carson conveys the whole experience admirably. It's almost as good as being there."
278133,2,good desciption of hiking diffaculty,very good on trail conditions from what you'll see to telling you what is a better trail depending on sesoinal conditions.
278147,2,what to include?,"I need to know, if this book contain any table whit propiety abaut the fooods, by example , Na , P ,K , Ca , Proteins , Calorias , and others. I need this becose i'm renal transplantete and my P and K is high. I have to do a regimen nutritius."
278155,2,Muesli rusks are delicious,"This South African traditional snack is delicious dipped in your morning coffee. Just a few rusks are hearty enough to be a quick, tasty breakfast. Ouma brand is the best for rusks in my opinion. Rusks are like home style biscotti - thick hard, crusty, bread-like dipping sticks. Do not try to eat a rusk that hasn't been dunked or you'll need to see your dentist!"
278236,2,Just Six Numbers,"I thoroughly enjoyed Martin Rees's book, ""Just Six Nembers"". He presented a complicated subject that is understandable to the average person in a not too techical manner. This made in enjoyable and informative."
278243,2,"Relaxing, Beautiful DVD","I gave this film 4 stars because of the beautifull photography that is a relaxing way to spend ah hour or so. There is no plot whatsoever and the only action is of marine amimals swimming in their enviroment. IF you like this sort of thinf(I do, once in a while), then get this DVD."
278244,2,A True Inspiration,"I read this book cover to cover and I have to say,Mara McWilliams is a very courageous lady. She has opened her very soul to the public in this book and she tells the whole truth.From her pain of an unhappy and abusive childhood to the birth of her daughter and her happy union with her soulmate.I intend to read this book many times and I'll go to it time and again for inspiration,when things start to look like there is no way to go but farther down,I know that all I have to do is read the story of a surviver to know there is hope.There is life with bipolar and there is every reason to continue the struggle.I am looking forward to more books by this lady."
278293,2,"Pay attention to the dimensions, these are very small","Pay attention to the dimensions on these. I just read ""original cube"" and thought they'd be the normal post-its but these are really small and not the ""original"" size post it that I was thinking...my mistake on that, just want to keep others from doing that. These are still good quality post-its as usual, I'll just use them for really small notes."
278326,2,We gave Iraq the money to kill our troops.,"I am not good in history or geography. When I read THE AMERICAN PROPHECIES I began to understand how our wastefulness in the US has and will continue to fund the terrorists who attack our homeland and kill our troops. We need to turn to the only one that matters, God, and to live according to his rules to try and save our nation."
278329,2,One of the best books in town,"The American Prophecies book it one of the best books that we have read in along time. It is straight forward and a very true book. That points out where our Nation is headed and that if we don't stand behind Jerusalem, we would wish we did. The book should be read by every Christian person and for that matter every one. After all the facts that Mike pointed out, at the end of the book it leads you through on how to be saved and become one of God's lambs."
278351,2,I shouldn't have bought Woodalls RV campground guide; Foghorn is all you need,"I purchased both a Woodalls RV guide and Foghorn and compared them both this past Aug and Sept 2005 while RVing in WA, OR, NV and CA. I stopped using Woodalls after the first few nights -- there is no comparison between the two. The driving directions in Foghorn are far superior to Woodalls and the campground descriptions are more factual as I believe that Woodalls give an edge to those RV sites that advertise in their guidebook (just my gut feeling) whereas Foghorn does not accept any ads in their guidebook."
278368,2,Got what I expected,"Its as small and convenient as it looks. Only improvement I would make is a plastic case to make it lighter. Still, I love it! The perfect travel device."
278402,2,Purchaser,I purchased this item for my son. He picked it out himself and is quite satisfied with the product.
278419,2,Incredible acting!,"Firth, Rush and Bonham Carter deserve Oscars! The movie audience actually applauded as the final credits rolled. An inspiring drama that was funny and touching while teaching you something about history."
278499,2,What a wonderful book,"This book contains many wonders. It presents the deepest fruits of Wilson's half century of Joyce studies, as well as a history of alternative religion in America, studies of Allen Ginsburg and Marilyn Monroe, etc. I loved it."
278504,2,WOW!,I just finished this book several hours ago. No book has ever moved me so much. I can honestly say I enjoyed every moment and every twist and turn of the plot of this novel. Gaffney has a style of writing which makes you feel like you really know the characters. They become like close friends to you and you hate to see the book end. I highly recommend this book to anyone.
278543,2,Tools for the Universe to speak,"I purchased both these and 'Soul Oracle' deck. I already owned the 'Ask Your Guides' deck. I find these decks give Spirit a way to get to me... when I'm not tuned in. I've been working with each of these daily for about two weeks and have had incredible results. Both assurances that I'm on the right path, and suggestions for redirection.My vibes are getting stronger with this daily work. Key is listening to what is told you and acting on the advice."
278566,2,"Good rollers, somewhat hard to use clips, not for me","I liked how quickly these rollers heated up. The clips were kind of hard to use, but they worked. I have really long hair so I ended up using all 20 of the rollers which didn't work very well with the smaller rollers. Even the biggest rollers weren't big enough. The curls did look really nice though, but too tight for me. Overall, good product, but I recommend it for someone with shorter/thinner hair or who likes tight curls."
278568,2,"Fun ""ism""","This is a great classic. Completely clean and family friendly. Very funny and in all its light-heartedness a great lesson about priorities in life is taught. When life gets stressful, you have got to play this movie."
278666,2,Fun to use,"The Design Runner is a fun tool to have. It is fun to use for card making, scrapbooking and it even prints on twill ribbon! If you follow the instructions and use the accessory ruller you shouldn't have any problems! I always clean the print cartridge nozzles before using and I don't have a problem with smearing. I have enjoyed using my Xyron Design Runner and don't regret the purchase!"
278737,2,shoulder relief,This is a great product. My husband and I have both used it with great success. The velcro band is a big help for keeping it where you want it.
278816,2,"The Pre-Paid Legal Story: The Story of One Man, His Company,",I enjoyed the book. It is a good thing to see someone follow their vision with a passion and a unique business model.
278821,2,Great for some good down time,"I enjoy puzzles that give you a bit of frustration while still being interesting and fun to put together. This puzzle provided both and the picture, when completed, it great."
278861,2,Great Lamp for the Price,"When decorating my brother-inlaw's condo, we needed a a tall lamp next to the lounge part of the couch. I looked everywhere, in stores and online, and was so happy to find this lamp, as height, size and color of shade were perfect next to the lounge part of the couch. I was even more happy when we opened the box to find it was very well made, with bulbs that could be adjusted for different lighting effects, and bright enough for reading. It looks like a $400.00 lamp you would find in upscale furniture stores."
278951,2,Awesome Cooker,My Mother bought a Turbo Cooker from TV and bragged about how good it cooked. I did not believe her until she convinced me to take hers home and just try it... It is AWESOME... I baked a whole chicken and veggies in half the time.. it was so juicy. My husband loved it and said we should tell Mom we lost her cooker so we could keep it.. When I returned it to her I told her I must have one... It is awesome.. Well worth the money.
279089,2,Meeting the challenges of the New Economy.,"Robert Allen discusses the challenges of the ""new economy"" and provides sound principles toward achieving financial security. Having been a ""Nothing Down"" student, I've again been blessed by a master financial planner. Get this book, you won't be sorry."
279101,2,Go behind the Bat!,"I've always found it fascinating on how they make movies nowadays. I've taken film classes, but it wanted to see the scripts that they use. This is the complete screenplay to the movie "" Batman Begins."" You not only can read the linings, but you can see how they decided to put together these scenes through the storyboards. This is an excellent item for any movie buff, or any butting filmmaker. It will give you an idea on how to start writing a screenplay, and you can go behind the scenes in see how they put together this blockbuster."
279193,2,3-hole Master Punch,"We needed a heavy-duty 3-hole punch that would allow for punching holes larger than the standard 9/32"" diameter hole. Punches with larger punch heads are hard to find. But Amazon came through for us and had this one available. It is working just fine for our needs. My husband works with some very larger binders, and having a punch that can provide these extra large punch holes made all the difference."
279218,2,Post-ROTJ at its best....,"Heir to the Empire is a great book. Timothy Zhan captivates the reader with a story that is exciting and enjoyable throughout the entire book. Zhan is an author whose books is of outstanding quality. Heir to the Empire is a must read for Star Wars fans. And, if you do you read it, you'll be propelled to finish the cycle. Read it for yourself."
279236,2,Lizzie B Review,"The book ""Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster's Boy"" was a very well written Historical Fiction book. The begining of the book was pretty slow. But the story was very good at the end, except that it was very depressing with all the people dying and Mr. Stonecrop taking everyones money. I liked the main character, Turner Buckminster, because he was nice to people, was religious, looked out for people in need and he wasn't afraid to break the rules. The character of Lizzie Bright was sassy, didn't like it when people told her she couldn't do something and she was good at many things (boating, baseball, running.) After reading the book I felt kind of depressed because a lot of the main characters died. Even though it was sad, I liked it because it was interesting and something different. I learned some things about history by reading this book, too. For example, I did not know there was slavery in the North. I would recommend this book for people ages 10 and above."
279290,2,Great tea,This is my favorite iced tea. I can't have much caffine and I love the quart size for company.
279323,2,Very helpful tool,"I was in need of some help applying sheet rock in my garage. Using the ""third hand"" along with a 2 x 4 T-square I was able to install 4 x 8 sheets with one other person and myself. The hand grip clamp extension was very useful."
279324,2,the cats meow,I am a finish carpenter who does not work well with others. Before I ordered the 3rd hand product I always had to pay someone to help me hang crown mold.The 3rd hand set of 4 cost about the same as I would have to pay someone to help me 1 day.The product actually holds crown mold right where you want it to. It is excellent for making splices on long walls and with special order millwork where you often get short lengths.I ordered this this spring after looking at it at amazon for years. You combine this with a walkboard or 2 and the results are amazing. It takes a little practice but the end results are worth it. I always thought that it probably would not work as well as it says but I was wrong. I should have ordered it the first time I saw it.
279445,2,Gobsmackingly good....,"Cryptonomicon will demonstrate to you clearly how pedestrian and formulaic virtually all other books, film, and other entertainment have become. Continually surprising, brilliantly evocative both visually and emotionally, and frequently hilarious. I loved it when it came out (though like others I had a hard time slogging through some parts) and upon rereading it recently found myself even more astonished. Combined with the Baroque Cycle (with which it is inextricably intertwined) it now comes to, what, 4000 pages? And yet I, for one, cannot wait for Stephenson to continue the saga."
279516,2,Great for Infants,I purchased these earrings and can't find anything bigger to compare them to for the price. The backs stay on great and will not get caught on carpet/blankets that could catch and pull the backs off. I have bought several pairs and nothing compares. I would recommend these earrings for any young child.
279582,2,Good Flick,I loved this movie! Everyone loves Greek mythology and the sorts. This film was awesome. The gore factor was alot like 300.
279600,2,Very Good,"This book is amazing.I can see why it took the author 3 years to write-- a terrific job putting this book together. If you love the Friday movies, this book is a must have on your reading list."
279658,2,Page Turner!,The Rapture Dialogues is a great read. It caught my attention at the very beginning and kept me going to the end. I only wish that the story kept going. When can we expect the sequel?
279661,2,Great Play,Antigone is the very best play ever written. It shows how a woman can be just as strong as men and teaches you to follow what's in your heart.
279676,2,"Funny, sexy and well written","""He lies like an eye-witness"" Russian saying. This quote appears on the frontispiece of this enjoyable novel. The opening words of the novel are:"" My name is Stuart, and I remember everything."" So I, dear reader, was sucked in straight away. It's a first person narrative from the point of view of the three main characters (the eternal triangle?) Gillian, Stuart and Oliver. If you are familiar with the Japanese film masterpiece RASHOMON you will be familiar with the premise. This book will make your day a little bit brighter. Delicious and sympathetic humour."
279740,2,Best Wireless Mouse Available Today,"First off, wireless isn't perfect, so you have to know that going into purchasing a mouse. That being said, this is the best optical wireless mouse I have used (and I have used a few). For the person complaining about having problems using it with a Mac, that's what you get for using a Mac ;p"
279815,2,One of a kind look into a Japanese Samurai,"This book is the reprinted translated diary of a Samurai in Japan in the early 1800's. It gives the reader a unique look into Japanese society at that time. The samurai in question, Katsu Kokichi, is not a very good samurai which makes this book all the more interesting to read. The reader is drawn into the dilemmas of Katsu and his times. The book also includes beautiful ink drawings and full color plates of tokyo and its environs. This adds to the fullness of the story. This book is perfect for anyone who likes autobiographies or who is interested in Japanese and Asian culture"
279837,2,Action Packed ! A Fast Read !,This was a great book. I read a minimum of (1) western novel per month and have done so for years. I have read works from most of the well known writers. I have saved Zane Grey for last. Boy what I have missed. This book is fast paced and the character is so interesting that the pages just fly by. Don't miss this one.
279859,2,Best book I've ever read.,"Being an avid reader, I've read all of the ""great works"" -- from Socrates and Plato to Steinbeck and Hemingway -- and this is the best fiction/philosophy that I've ever read. Abbey's discriptions of his travels and laments are first class -- funny, honest, and down-right on the mark. When I met Henry Lightcap in chapter one, I wanted to know who he is and how he became to be. At the end, I cried for a man that I came to know and love. Although I love and respect many of the great works of the west, this is the most incredible novel I have ever read. I re-read this book at least once a year -- it's a wonderful journey, never a chore. If I could recommend one book out of the multitudes I've read, this would be the one. And the only."
279902,2,"Safest, cheapest, and most practical cat collar I've found...","Pros:- It doesn't unsnap like all the other silly 'snap' collars out there. But it's still safe. The elastic is enough to stay on my two, medium-sized cats, but it doesn't come off when they scratch the back of their fuzzy little necks.- Cheap.- The color is nice (I don't like those flowery colors).- Dingle-bell (if your's comes with one) is easy to take off.Cons:- Your cat--if clever--can and will get his/her collar off. No matter what, try as you'd like. As mentioned above though, this one doesn't ""snap"" on so it's harder for them to get off. But it's still safe if they get snagged."
279946,2,Powerful!!!,"This ""Air Circulator"" is in a league of its own. It is extremely powerful. I am very pleased. My only concern is with the durability of the clamp. It doesn't seem to be as well made as the rest of the air circulator. But for the last 30 days, it has been just fine."
279996,2,first-rate,"Tessa Hadley is up there with Alice Munro in terms of craftsmanship and talent but her characters skew a little younger, more Lorrie Moore territory. Hard to believe this is a first novel; can't wait for the second."
280008,2,"Seems to work fine, wish I could change one detail...","I haven't yet had a problem with this product's performance, however it makes a beeping sound during use that I did not expect. I really wish I could turn the beep off! The beep is to let you know when the thermometer is sensing warmer temperatures or similar temps... basically to reassure you that it is functioning. Other than the beeping, I am happy with this product so far."
280089,2,Great Classic TV!!!!,"One Of The Great Tv Shows!!! It Was So Much Fun To Watch These Shows Again!!! Picture & Sound Quality Were Very Good!!! The Guest Stars Were Wonderful...Especially Kent McCord,Pre ADAM-12. I Had No Problems With The Dvds Playing!!! I Look Forward To More Seasons Of This And ""ADAM-12"" & ""Emergency""!!!! Great Stuff!!!"
280098,2,"This book truly is ""Amelia Peabody's Egypt""","I have only read ""Falcon at the Portal"" and was not very impressed. However this book gives a lot more insight to Elizabeth Peters' characters and their environment of nineteenth and twentieth century environment. We weave reality with literature never really knowing where one starts and the other stops. The book is jam-packed with actual monochrome photos and sketches of famous (at the time) people and landmarks.Under the section marked ""People and Places"" Heinrich Schliemann received a whole paragraph. This must make up for the lack of a bibliography and index.Crocodile on the Sandbank (Amelia Peabody, Book 1)"
280118,2,LOVE IT!,"I am soooo happy to finally get this dvd set. I have loved the show since I caught them in re-run in the 90s.. but unfortunately, i have never been able to watch them from beginning to end... i just caught them whenever they were on tv. FINALLY, i saw them on amazon and i bought all 4 seasons.. i can't wait for the rest to come out. this is such an awesome show and i just love every episode. the only thing i wish it will have more of, was the bloopers and the extra features."
280135,2,This works for gi joe research,I've did art turn around of one of the characters from the DIC season 1 and I enjoy seeing all of them and the vehicles in action.
280186,2,LIke it,A classical love story set in todays time frame. Beautiful scenery too. I live in the northwest where the movie is located so enjoyed seeing the filming locations
280224,2,Bring on The Divas!,""" Divas of the New Millennium "" is a great read. You'll find a lot of new information. I am not a fan of all the artists in the book so it was nice to read about the ones I didn't know. I liked the way the book was put together. It flowed beautifully. I read in the book that Stacy and Natasha are fiction authors but I am looking forward to another biography book from them. I hope they put together a book of male singers. Hopefully one with Usher because he's my favorite singer. If you like music and these artists you have to get this book. Everyone on my block got it. The book was very impressive. I didn't notice any big mistakes or anything. Some people just always have to say something negative no matter what. People need to stop hating. The authors are just doing their thing and they did it well. This is a very good book and most of the people I know bought it and like it too."
280243,2,Very Good,"Okay I'm very cautious about my skin because It's very sensitive, oily and I had spots on my face from past breakouts that I wanted to go away especially because I'm going on a trip to Atlanta Ga and it's for modeling so I really want my skin to look nice so far Iv'e used this product twice and it works very well it's not oily it doesn't cause more breakouts for me and it's working fast like really fast I'm going to put more on tonight before bed and wash my face in the morning and I'm shore my spots will almost be gone because I can barely see them now I had to write this so other women or men will know it is good you can also put it on your body as well it works fast there too lol I hope this helps because I was cautious at first but I really like it!"
280270,2,Robots and Empire,"This book is an excellent show of human emotions and a mixtureof conspiracy with mystery. R. Daneel and R. Giskard, who are robots,are put in a place where the world around them are changing.Contained by the Three Laws of Robotics, they quest to solve the urge to question reality and create the Zeroth Law. This is an excellent book if you like science fiction. END"
280311,2,Karma...simplified!,"For the uninitiated, ""Everyday Karma"" does bring Karma into the realm of everyday life...simple explanations yet intriquing and understandable concepts. Satisfies the curious; affirms the believer; encourages the doubter. A subtle confirmation of holstic possibilities and affirming acknowledgement of everyone's potential to access the intuitive."
280327,2,Don't listen to Dan!,"Dan...it may be true that the book is lacking content in text, but the wonderful photography certainly makes up for it. Do not take advice from someone who can't spell BORING (not booring). Yes, it is more of a ""coffee table"" type of travelers book, but it is great for ideas and dreaming of trips!"
280339,2,good shredder- assembly required,Great service - very fast delivery. The shredder is actually pretty powerful and works as described. I didn't anticipate so much assembly required. The problem was understanding the directions for assembly.It wasn't a case of poor translation - it was just poorly written and hard to understand even by several people who are very adept at assembling machinery.
280407,2,Live Album Perfection,"Having been at the SF part of this concert tour, I couldn't wait to get my hands on the recording. It captures all the spirit and talent of both Amy and Willie K plus the guest performers traveling with them. The musicians are on fire and just listening to the CD, you can hear the energy among all of them. The banter is real and refreshing. Amy's rendition of Autumn Leaves is breathtaking. I love her Hawaiian stuff, but I hope she'll do a CD of standards like this!"
280410,2,"Great RJ-45s, but do not ""click"" in as some jacks","These RJ-45 connections went onto the Cat-5e cable easily and made good connection when crimped. The only ""issue"" I had was that they do not ""click"" into your ethernet port as some others do. However, this is not an issue for me as these connections were made to an 8-port switch and will not be constantly disconnected and reconnected."
280452,2,Beautiful Lamp,I bought this lamp from Amazon for a gift. It came in great condition. The lamp itself is very high quality and is abosolutely gorgeous. I wish I would have purchased one for myself also.
280509,2,Amazing,"Hi,bought this with great expectation and I really loved it as it reminds me of lots of childhood memories. and also its good quality plush"
280514,2,Small radiios w/small speakers have come a very long way!,"This order arrived in two short days. I was surprised how well-packed the CrosleyR31 was packed. The radio was well construced (in China), looked great and sounds amazing considering the price. Received LOTS of stations, don't even think I will need an AM antennae for baseball games in the garage. FM is just fine. I regret not having bought it years ago.Crosley Companion Radio (Walnut)"
280618,2,Excellent price:performance ratio,"HOSA cables are excellent quality, durable, and have a reassuring thickness that make them my personal favorite for all of my audio equipment. Don't bother with expensive brands like Belkin or Monster, HOSA is equal to or better quality for a fraction of the price."
280631,2,A good foundation,"My father was a pastor and had a set of these books on a shelf low enough for his children to read, freely. I really loved reading these books when I was a child and they helped develop my appreciation for the Bible. I also liked the pictures and as a growing artist I tried my hand at drawing some of them when I was a child. I am now married and a mother of three. I rediscoved these books when I took my 3 kids (ages 8,9,and 12) to a clinic. I stepped around a corner, in the clinic, to set up an appointment and left them sittng in the lobby. When I returned, I was suprised to find them sitting quietly reading a Bible Story book. They weren't ready to go because they wanted to finish reading. I look forward to buying a set for my home. Of course, first, I will see if my mother will let me have the ones that dad (who passed away) purchased."
280654,2,Who Knew!,"I was blown away by this book. It reveals lots of really strange things that happen in Hawaii. He tells about physical and emotional healing that people sometimes experience, the many power spots all over the island where people go to pray and ask for blessings. The author recounts some of the spiritual beliefs of the Hawaiian people from long ago and what is still remembered from that time. I thought it was well worth the read. The reader learns of many ghostly apparitions that are often seen at special places on the Island."
280697,2,The Razor Edge Book of Sharpening,Very nice and useful book. A little bit of theory and detailed sections for each tool. I'll recommend it.
280721,2,Not bad at all,"While I will respect the poet's desire to remain anonamous, I will bring to light that I had the pleasure of serving with him on board the USS Curtis Wilbur. Most of what you read was written while deployed in the Persian Gulf. If it seems a little too emotional at times, think of your emotions two continents and two oceans away from your friends and family for six months. This book was started in the Gulf on a deployment that was not supposed to take us there. We got the call, we went, and Heartsender wrote. This is real emotion as real as it gets. It was written inbetween ship boardings, and run ins with the Iranian Navy. The poet still serves, and I am proud to still serve with him. If you support the troops, you must support their feelings. This book is Heartsender's feelings. This book is Heartsender"
280757,2,Great for restaurants!,"LOVE this booster. It is perfect for taking to restaurants. We were able to start using it for our son when he was about 5 months and able to sit with some support. We prefer using this over a restaurant highchair, as it gives our son more support, and we don't have to worry about germs. It cleans up very easily and hardly any food falls into the seat during a meal. If I had to do it over again I would have got this instead of a high chair. We keep one in the car and another at grandma's house."
280776,2,Nerds double feature!,"Nerd fans should rejoice at the recent CBS FOX DVD release of the first two films for the price of one. Widescreen and the prints are sharp. In the original film, it's brain vs. brawn at Adams College, and our heroes (especially Carradine and Edwards) are genuinely likable. Their attractive but unlikable antagonists repeatedly goad the nerds into retaliation, with hilarious results. One highlight is the party the nerds throw to try to get into a fraternity. Genuine friendship is abound between hi jinks and peeking at girls. Nerds II is a decent companion piece which sends the nerds to Fort Lauderdale for a fraternity conference. The alpha betas are just as sadistic, and our heroes come out fighting. Anthony Edwards only appears in a few scenes. They have a lot of new misadventures instead of just repeating the first film. Watch for their ""No on 15"" party. Good fun for fans of the genre."
280845,2,I LOVE VEGETA,"This a really, really, really good movie. As you can tell from the first sentence, the main reason I love this movie is because Vegeta is all in it and he is my favorite character. I can't wait to see the ones where he and Bulma get together. Man I wish I were Bulma!!!!!!!!"
280855,2,Not bad... but not good either.,"The best thing about this film is the cinematics. Being a student filmmaker, I was awe struck by the action scenes and how the camera never stopped moving. The camera operator must have gotten hurt from all that stuff flying all over the place! I recommend this movie to any other student filmmaker. That's it."
280865,2,"The wizardry of ""Moz"".","This ""Best Of"" is an overall improvement over his previous collection ""Bona Drag"". Mostly because it's longer and career-spanning. This includes most of his best. What's here is ""Suedehead"", ""Everyday Is Like Sunday"", ""Interesting Drug"", and ""Alma Matters"", among others. Every song here is good, but ""Last Of The Famous International Playboys"" might be my favorite. It's the most fun to sing along with anyway. As generous as this disc is, I'd still like to see ""Bengali In Platforms"" or ""The Ordinary Boys"" on here. In fact if you wanted just a proper album of his, I would suggest his solo debut ""Viva Hate"". But as far as one disc goes, it's hard to complain about 21 tracks of ""The Best Of Morrissey"". I'm sure you won't be ""Disappointed""."
281044,2,Inspiring,"Love Harry Harrisons book. I have several and want to share them with everyone, especially if they have a daughter. I will use this book through all of my daughters stages in her growing up."
281088,2,One of my favorites,"This is a fabulous book. If you like ""The House At Riverton Place"" or ""The Forgotten Garden"", you'll love this book."
281188,2,John Barleycorn by Jack London,"If you want to know about Jack London, this is the book to read! He talks about many events and adventures in life with his not so nice buddy, John Barleycorn(whisky). The book can be a lot of fun as he talks about his adventures when he was young and yet it's very sad in other areas regarding the loss of many of his friends due to alcoholism. And the book is disturbing how his thinking becomes haunted and depressed as he becomes a serious drinker when he is older. He tries very hard throughout the book to fight John Barleycorn and his strength, honesty and sincerity is an inspiration. I couldn't help but compare this book to Craig Fergeson's American on Purpose book. It's extremely amazing to find these guys rise out of the clutches of John Barleycorn."
281204,2,Good Book,I thought that this was a good book for kids to learn how to count.That is a good way to teach children how count and read. They were trying to find big bird and that kept kids to keep reading.
281256,2,"If this is what I think it is, I have been looking all over","Omigosh! If this is the book based on the movie ""Labyrinth"", PLEASE send me info on it! I loved, still love the movie, and would just die if I could get my hands on a copy of the book!"
281262,2,An Autistic Life,"This is the autobiography of Lucy Blackman, an amazing autisticwoman who has made remarkable progress in adjusting to theworld despite her autism. Facilitated communication and auditoryintegration therapy play major roles. What I found particularlyvaluable (but at times hard to understand) were the insightsshe gained into her own difficulties when she saw changes as aresult of these therapies and techniques. This book is hardto follow at times, but worth the effort for anyone trying tounderstand autism."
281288,2,sheer joy,"Watching this concert left me speechless - it really blew me away. Being a life-long fan of the fab-four, I mourned the passing away of George. This concert showed me how much George is loved - the Royal Albert Hall was jam-packed to the brim. EC,Billy Preston,Jeff Lynne,Ray Cooper,Tom Petty+Heartbreakers,Paul and Ringo and others all come together to honour the great music of a dear friend and extremely talented fellow musician and artist. I couldn't get over how much Dhani resembles his father, and I couldn't fight back the tears when the camera angle captured Paul,Ringo and Dhani together in the same frame (if only Julian had been there on stage...). I highly recommend this DVD to any Beatle fan especially to those who loved George."
281289,2,Perfect.,"The perfect tribute for the perfect artist with perfect love, that's what this is. As the cynic I can sometimes be, I am emotionally touched by this tribute. Very personally do I feel my admiration and love for George. Anything less than this tribute would have been insulting, anything more would have been too. It's genuine love displayed by people who loved and cherished a rare type of person in this world, who is even rarer among musicians. He walked his talk. He is George Harrison, a man who has influenced millions, if not billions of people. Buy this DVD set and you will be moved very deeply by the gratitude and affection shown by his friends. Brilliant, if I could give it more stars your monitor would be filled with them."
281294,2,Easy!!!,"This has got to be the best and handiest map i've ever had! It's small, easy to carry, important buildings on the map. London was our last stop, on out backpacking trip, so we've seen A LOT of useless ones. This map also has top tourist places from food, to shopping to museums, etc. It also has the TUBE (underground) map, on it."
281319,2,Great Lady Soul in the Seventies,"This compilation includes Aretha's hits of the early to mid 1970s. The variety of styles within the soul genre is impressive, from the exotic Spanish Harlem (a 1971 top 3 hit) with its powerful vocals and impressive Spanish guitar through the minimalist Rock Steady to the beautiful balladry of Bridge Over Troubled Water, still the definitive soul treatment of Simon & Garfunkel's classic.My other favourites include the emotional Don't Play That Song and the brooding You're All I Need To Get By, a huge hit in 1971. The CD also contains extra tracks, of which the best is Aretha's great version of Elton John and Bernie Taupin's Border Song.Some fans might disagree, preferring her late 1960s gems, but I have always loved Aretha's early 70s output. Nothing beats the exuberance of a song like Spanish Harlem or the restrained intensity of her version of Bridge Over Troubled Water. This is prime soul from Lady Soul's most interesting career phase."
281425,2,"If you're a noob at burning discs like me, you may want to watch the burn rate.",Bought these on the recommendation of a frequently visited tech site. The quality in these are solid. I bought the 25 pack of these and didn't have one bad disc. I then ordered the 50 pack and had 4 failed burns right off the bat. For some odd reason my disc burning software decided to change the write speed on these to 8x right in between my last disc on the first purchase and the first disc on the second purchase. Changed the write speed back to 2.4 and haven't had a coaster yet. Highly recommended.
281440,2,Very nice percolator,"We'd been suffering along for a few years with a motley collection of junky old percolators at my church and it was high time to replace them with something that worked correctly (some of our old ones had started spouting hot water and making a complete mess with the coffee grounds everywhere!). After reading some reviews we settled on a couple of these. They were very much worth the purchase. They brew coffee much faster than the old ones, and make a better tasting cup-of-joe to boot. They're also very easy to break down and clean. If you need a whole lot of coffee in a hurry, you could do much worse than a West Bend 33600."
281444,2,The Whole Family Uses It.,We began using BBB 4 years ago with my first son - primarily after baths. Good lather all over his body including face. I started using on my dry nose and chin area and it was such an incredible improvement in the general moisture and health of my skin. Now I'm using it all over my face (especially in cold months) and on any dry patches like shoulders and shins. One of the greatest products I've discovered in my 37yrs. All four family members use this product every day.
281461,2,I'm blind,This is the brightest you're gonna get with regular bulbs. Sometimes I feel sorry for the people in front of me.
281525,2,Memories,"I read this book when I was in my early teens. It brought me such emense joy, that when asked my favorite book, it always springs to mind. When it is not kosher for a 20-something woman to admit that she still loves a teen romance novel, I do. It always brings back wonderful memories, and it makes me happy just to remember the characters. Bruce and Darby are as much of my teenage years as algebra and history. So, if you are fortunate enough to read this book, savor it."
281605,2,Great product,"I purchased these to replace my plastic containers. At first I was afraid I was going to have a hard time with getting the lids off and on, they seemed really tight, but really I haven't had any issues with it. I love the size of the containers, they are perfect for leftovers for my family. Since I read so many reviews about the exploding glass, I decided I would not put them in the microwave for extended periods. I do put it in for just a few minutes and haven't had any issues so far (I've been using them for about 10 months now). They have held up fantastic so far, they look just as good as the day I got them."
281637,2,Beach Reading,"This was a fun book to read. Max and Lola are on a boat, alone, together and the boat wires are melted. Throw in an island, some drug running men, and a yippy dog and you have an exciting story.I felt the characters were believable and Max was certainly a fantasy man with all the flaws and character you could ask for. I particularly liked Lola. She was smart and interesting and fun and slightly dotty. Very fun.My only comment, I'd rate this a low five or a high four. I didn't think it was as steamy as advertised."
281640,2,"Big, Bright, and Bountiful",This book is a luxurious trip through the world of Peanuts. The large blowups of panels and characters send the work into true art and cement home Sparky's place in Popular Culture. The graphic design and layouts are wonderful and engaging and give me that warm feeling I have always received from Charlie Brown and Co. Bravo!
281671,2,The CD that starts it all,"I have beeen a big fan of Pearl Jam for over four years now and as a fan, I have been disgusted recently by the recent albums that have been released by Pearl Jam. Their best album so far (in my mind) is ""Ten."" Along with Nirvana's ""Nevermind"", those CDs represent what grunge really is. Full of great tracks including ""Alive"", ""Black"" and more, this is a must have for any Pearl Jam fan."
281678,2,the best album of the early 1990's,"I'm not one of those blind ""if Pearl Jam plays it, it must be great"" fans. I don't really like some of their newest stuff. However, ""Ten"", their first album, is definitely among the best albums made in the 1990s. I think it's the best. You must own this CD!"
281679,2,Essential greatness,"This is one of the greatest debut albums of all time, at least top five, and Pearl Jam's best record. Eddie Vedder has got an amazing voice, screeching and screaming and above all else, really good. The dude has range and his melodies are second nature to him. Great rhythms, excellent lyrics. Black is the best song. Even Floew flat out rocks, my favorite PJ song. Alive is stylisti slow and hard rock 'n' roll. Release is kind of a psychedalic throw back to their inspirations. Why Go rocks. Jeremy slams. Proch is driving and pounding rock. And it's all really good, not just their to be the next noise. High quality."
281737,2,Very Good Techno/trance Mix... gives me goosebumps!!,This is a hot dance track to get hopping to in the clubs. :o) very good.. I'd totaly recommend it.
281745,2,Greatness,I Didnt Know What I Was Getting Into. I Thought this Would Be a Plain Old S**t Cd. But i Listen to F**k It and I Was Swept Way.This Is An Awsome Cd.
281770,2,Classic Read Decent Movie,"This book is great to use with secondary students since it addresses the timeless class struggle they all go through during the teen years. S.E. Hinton was only 17 when she wrote this book, and that is another plus when recommending this book to teens. I strongly advise reading the book before watching the movie. The movie is interesting to watch since it has so many big name actors in it who were mostly unknown at the time this was filmed."
281790,2,"Just what I needed, could not find at 2 Walmarts, Home Depot, Ace or Walgreens","I wanted to lite the outside of my house with just red and green lights this year, I found red bulbs but I could not find green ones anywhere. These are just what I needed, the shipped fast, they were packaged well and they were priced right. Thank you! My outside lights looked Great!"
281868,2,OH YEAH!!!,"If you thought ""The Whispered Lies Of Angels"" was good then your in for a great surprise.... this cd was more the perfect... except the fact that it is an e.p. but like i said if you like there first then you have nothing to lose.. you will love this album BUY IT!!!!"
281874,2,"Perfect stroller, well worth the price!",We love this stroller! We had originally purchased one of the large strollers that the car seat snaps into. My son grew out of his car seat so the large heavy stroller was a pain to lug around. We purchased this one knowing that we have a flight booked in the near future and figured we would just use this for the trip. Since we recieved this stroller I have kept it in the back of my car and we have used it over and over. It is so light weight I can pick it up with one hand while holding my son in the other. It is worth way more than we paid. Delivery was faster than expected as well. We purchased the orange color and I have to say the Color is great as well!
281877,2,Looking foward to taking this one to Disney!,"WOW! We have had this one for a little while now and we absolutely love it! The handles are just right for me (5'2"") and mu husband who is slightly taller. It maneuvers well and handles our rocky driveway with ease. I am not sure about the staining as our daughter hasn't eaten in there yet but the milk she has dropped wiped off easily enough. So far...I like!"
281898,2,Nothing less than SUPERB!!!!!,"I am also one of Linda Howard's avid fans and have been for several years. I was somewhat disappointed in her last two but did she ever redeem herself with All the Queen's Men. Her heros are always my favourite type. How could you not like John Medina...sure made my heart beat a little faster. I loved this book so much so that I had to keep the fix going and went and reread After the Night, another favourite."
281993,2,This gal knows how to play the blues!,"I first heard Ms. Tedeschi when she opened for B.B. King in his year 2000 tour. What a night! I happen to be a big fan of the blues, and when I heard those performers, I was more than impressed! But Ms. Tedeschi stood out from the rest, because she expresses such a great amount of talent. You can tell that she loves her work! She can really play the blues, and her voice is just the icing on the cake!It's hard to say which song on this album is my favorite. It's like trying to decide which one of your children you love more. But I will say that her interpretation of ""Hound Dog"" is not one to be missed. I would also have to say that the instrumental work on ""You're On My Hair"" is great! Not to mention, she can play a mean slide guitar! (When you hear ""Locomotive"" you'll know what I mean). I recommend this album to anyone who has a deep respect for the blues, you won't be disappointed!"
282004,2,LA girl in fashion landscape and a pretty turn of phrase,"Autobiographical, revealing, intimate, and touchingly confessional, like many first novels. Do we want to peek at the internal, frustrated and narcissistically driven lives of the sophisticated LA fashionable? You bet. Odd thing is Dana comes off likeable and sympathetic, think Shopgirl, think Pretty Woman. Do we have another voice for the romantically overstimulated hot set? Think High Fidelity and John Cusack. We'll wait and see. Look what happened to Michael Chabon with this kind of introspective, self-examination. Pulitzer Prize. Go Dana. Keep it up. I will buy the next one, gladly. You folks out there with your own literary minded yearnings - buy Dana's book. She could use the encouragement, the admiration, the movie deal."
282029,2,Midsomers murders,"Vintage Barnaby and Jones. Satisfying, no surprises. The charm of village life remains, and somehow they avoid becoming too formulaic."
282048,2,Detroit Radio 80's classics!!,I ordered this CD used & what a bargain!! Almost every song takes me right back to the tunes that had radio play in Detroit in the 80's - 89X! I don't think you'll be sorry with this one.
282064,2,Lorna of Kingston Castle - Sweet story,"This story is an inspiring tale written by a young homeschooled student who has a passion for sharing her commitment to strong character traits. That alone was enough to draw me into this authors world. She has woven a tale of war, love and the need to forgive remarkeably well. The story is witty, funny, sad and hopeful all at the same time. This book is for anyone who would like to put quality writing and high values in the hands of their young kids. I hope to see more from this young author in the future."
282109,2,Great HD antenna!,I just bought an HDTV and don't want cable/dish...so I got this one and the picture comes through so clear it's amazing! chicago has many digital broadcasts now and I don't have to move it at all to adjust for different stations or anything. An excellent product at a great price.
282117,2,right color,I was concerned that even though this bean bag was labeled 'raspberry' it might be more of a maroon color. Turned out to be a very pretty color that matched our granddaughter's room.
282124,2,The really big bag that I rarely use.,"This is a nice shoulder bag designed for laptops up to 17"". It was bundled as a free item with the purchase of my HP laptop. That is all very nice. I think that they were matched up because the color schemes matched. The quality of the bag is good. The shoulder strap could be a little wider for such a large bag. There are lots of cool inner pockets for every function imaginable. The problem is the laptop that I got this with is a 14"" widescreen and it just gets swallowed. Plus I felt compeled to use all the space in the bag which makes it quite heavy. I wish it were the 15"" bag of this same production line. That would make more sense. As for daily use, I don't use it. I use my laptop backback. It is hard to beat. Anyone looking for a good quality LARGE bag will enjoy the laptop carry all."
282126,2,"Lots of room for my 17"" laptop","This was my first laptop bag purchase and it was a good one. Lots of room for my 17"" laptop, plus many compartment to hold other things besides my computer. Very good price too."
282128,2,well worth the money,"This messenger bag is exactly what I was looking for. It's spacious enough to hold your notebook and whatever else you may need with it. There are pockets for your cords, external drives, mouse, cell phone whatever. The shoulder strap and the bag itself are well padded so it's comfortable and durable."
282150,2,A testament to a jaded generation,"Steffi's Club finds writer D.A. Blyler, author of the infamous Salon.com satire The 7 Vices of Highly Creative People, at the top of his game. Blyler is a keen and humorous observer of kitsch-laden sensibilities and he exploits them to their full extent in his protagonist Daniel Fischer. An American without a mission on the cobblestone streets of the Czech Republic, Daniel receives more than he bargains for when he accepts a job teaching flirtatious English to the girls at Steffi's Club, one of the town's most exclusive brothels. In less sure hands, the novel might simply be passed off as a pulpish expatriate novel of love, murder, and redemption, but Blyler kicks up dust outside such terrain to offer us a generational statement of those thirty-somethings who have fallen through the cracks of parental, academic, and worldly expectations--a generation that has long been waiting for a voice."
282157,2,*sniff...*,"This has the start of the conclusion of Battle city.Yami Marik's face becomes more distorted than ever.The story between the Ishtars is so compelling...but it's in Japanese.I would suggest buying 31 with this one, to avoid cliffhangers and see BC's nice ending.(Marik's lovability becomes really high in 31)"
282219,2,Great Series,I truly enjoyed the entire series of four brothers. Each book captured me from the beginning. Would recommend the series to anyone who loves good romance.
282220,2,Romance,I loved the book. Very good historical romance novel. Kept me interested until the end. I would recommend this book. Look foward to the next one.
282282,2,Fun songs for kids and parents,"My two and a half year old daughter really enjoys this cd. We play it in the car on road trips and she loves to sing along. Some of the songs are sung in rounds, so she's learning how to do that. Her favorites on this cd are the title song, I'm Having a Backwards Day, The ABC Song, Gimmel Gimmel Shin, and Pick a Bale of Cotton. It's fun singing for the parents, too!"
282291,2,Kensington backrest,"I had a lumbar fusion in October 2009, and I have purchased two of these cushions - one for work and one for home. My back gets sore if I sit in a hard-backed chair, and these cushions are incredible. They feel a bit stiff while they warm up with body heat. Then they conform to your spine and give welcome relief."
282371,2,nice for the office,"I purchased this for a dental office for the actual operatory. We wall mounted it because counter space is very limited. Everyone comments on how sleek and modern it looks. The only problem I have with it is that once mounted on the wall, it is not easy (almost impossible) to access the jack to hook up an accessory item (like my iPod) so I can use that as an alternative source of music. It would have been much nicer to have that jack on the side, not the back of the unit."
282377,2,Good snack that's better for you than Cheetos,"These are identical to Cheetos but without the cheesy coating. Instead, Robert's American Gourmet uses nutritional yeast, which allegedly adds nutritional value. Each 6 oz. bag has 900 calories, 108 g of carbs, 12 g of protein, and no vitamins or minerals. I'm not sure what the ""nutritional yeast"" add, but it's not clear that they add anything actually nutritional (at least according to the Nutritional Facts). However, these are a tasty and interesting alternative to Cheetos. I would recommend trying a bag before purchasing a box."
282414,2,Nice cloth,"These aren't bad cleaning cloths. I hadn't bought any before, so I wasn't sure which to go with, but this is good for the price. I would buy this product again. Though you should note that you may need to wash it before you use it, as some small fibers came off the cloth and onto my glasses, but works well after washed."
282420,2,A great overview,"This book provides a great overview of the history of the Knights Templar, both in Europe and America. The comparison of stonework on structures in Orkney with stonework on the Newport Tower is striking and adds illustrated evidence to the case the authors are making. I relied heavily on this book in researching my own novel on the subject.Cabal of The Westford Knight: Templars at the Newport TowerReaders, too, will appreciate the thorough research and quality writing in this book."
282421,2,excellent checkbook cover,The item comes with plastic insert for cards and such which I removed in order to slim the wallet down. The leather quality is good. All in all this is a very good value.
282427,2,Pleased Mom,"This is a great learning tool for little bratz lovers, the pointer is not the best for accuracy when pointing to a location on the globe but for the most part it's a good and fun learning tool great CHRISTmas gift."
282446,2,Great Player! Just read the instructions.,"The player is great. I've had it for 2 months. I use it with my Dell laptop and both of them are having no problem swapping songs. I use Windows Media and Music Match to put songs on the Dell first then swap. I feel this is the fastest way. With USB cable, songs are placed on the player in seconds. I think the headphones work great. People around me can hear exactly what song I'm listening too. The EAX does allow you to make your own bass and treble level when you select the Custom EQ selection. It would be great if they had a preset for extra bass or something else but you can't have everything. It does have a shuffle setting and a shuffle repeat setting so you can listen to your list over and over. This is a great player if you read the instructions on how to use it."
282463,2,Excellent Tess Monaghan,Trying to replace library materials lost became very tedious. I was glad when I found them on Amazon. In excellent condition.
282480,2,We Love Jack and Annie!,"My son and I are reading this series together and we both look forward to it each night. Mary Pope Osborn has done an amazing job of mixing real world facts into adventure fiction books. Many children (2nd - 3rd grade) read these on their own. While they are just the right reading level for 7 to 9 year old kids, we have found many jump off points for enriching conversation. Besides, she has me hooked too! The only recommendation I have about her books is that they should be read in groups of 4. Each book can stand alone but Jack and Annie, the main characters, are sent on missions that span a 4 book series."
282500,2,This one will stay with me awhile,"Beautiful, evocative, slow (in a good way), and ever so memorable video. It's about a Midwestern farm family of a dour old man and his two sons. A tragic even in their past has left each of them wounded in different ways. When the bank sends an unexpected foreclosure notice, a mystery comes to light that irrevocably changes them and their relationships to each other and their community. Funny, sad, thoughtful...and wonderful."
282639,2,Paleographer's Best Friend,"Michelle Brown has gathered examples from just about all of the Classical, Late Antique, and medieval Latin book-hands, from the extremely difficult-to-decipher Roman cursive to the all-too-clear Caroline Minuscule. Good introductions are offered for each script as well as copious notes on scribal errors/alterations, distinctive traits, and decorative elements. Each example displays a plate of a particular script on the right-hand page and a description/identification on the left. Also, there is a brief transcription (about 15-20 lines) on the left with all the words separated and the abbreviations expanded. Subject matter ranges from Virgil to biblical passages, with many things in-between. This is a must have for the student taking a paleography course or just interested in medieval book culture. Also recommended: Barbara Shailor, the Medieval Book."
282654,2,andersonville,"well worth the price for enthusiasts of the genre. set in andersonville pow camp during the civil war. graphic and gritty, very realistic. done well and advise owning this film."
282681,2,Good taps for beginners,"I love the style of the shoe, I just wish the tap sounds were a little brighter. They work perfectly for me. Its ""the"" shoe for beginners."
282686,2,works great,this control is a good deal for the $$$the only problem is the light button is difficult to use. this is a problem at night.
282719,2,Buy this book for your wife or girl friend...then borrow it.,"Is it as good as the other ""Chicken Soup for the Soul"" books? My wife cried just as much and forgave me for forgetting our anniversary"
282744,2,Nice and cheap,"I've had this mount for about a year and so far it's been holding up just fine. Installation was pretty tricky and even though it's adjustable and has plenty of holes for different projectors, mounting my Optoma HD66 was quite challenging. Also, I couldn't manage to tighten all the bolts completely so it can be rotated slightly, but since it's on the ceiling it's not really a problem."
282874,2,For theremin fans,"For theremin fans and the rest of us too. It is different, yet mainstream. Great for background music and a conversation piece ta-boot."
282909,2,Full of Pleasure,I bought this CD having read a fantastic review of it in Time magazine. It was a very good decision. Ms. Mekeba is a jem. African music comes full circle by way of Ms. Mekeba's splendid voice. I encourage you to embrace this brilliant and profound collection of songs.
282937,2,Amazing,"The book can be summed up in one word: amazing. The reader, looking at the cover so simple, is not able to fathom the depth of its content. What caught my attention was the wealth of detail in reports of armed conflict, especially trials rarely explored by other authors as the Congress of Vienna and the Court of Leipzig. Fundamental to any study of war crimes tribunals."
282947,2,Pat Riley Has Better Than Average Wisdom,"Have you guys heard about that whole Bush, Africa, Ted Danson, Aids, Tom Petty, Pacesetter Windows, Pharmaceutical company Deal?"
282958,2,"Use a lot of bandaids, nice big box","Finally you can buy bandaids in a box that doesn't have just a handful of the ones you actually use on a regular basis. These may not stick in the presence of water, but the fabric is comfy and they won't come off on their own as long as they're kept dry. I go through an unfortunate number of bandaids, and these are the ones I keep coming back to. Combined with some ichthammol to draw out infections and splinters, these are as much as I could ask for."
282963,2,good cardstock for greeting cards,"Cardstock material works well for greeting cards that I would normally use matte photo paper for. For more crisp images, some of sharpness is lost, but for most photos, the cardstock worked well - good weight, and took the folding crease well. A very economical way to go compared to prepared greeting card packages, with a good finished look to the product."
282990,2,Great CD!,"This was a great a CD - it features My Only Love, a brilliant song! My only complaint is that Amy's song, Will You Miss Me (only A Memory Away) is slight different. Ah well. It's still an excellent soundtrack."
283081,2,Superb performances by Jewel and Nathan Lane,I've heard Nathan Lane's performance 50 times and still laugh at his superb portrayal of the lion. This guy is tops. Jewel's voice and modern slant to Somewhere Over the Rainbow is a must hear. You will not find a better source of entertainment. This soundtrack has it all. Hearing 'The Jitterbug' makes me wonder why this jazzy little tune was left out of the original motion picture.
283138,2,one man's opinion,"Volumn 1 of Stan Freberg Presents The United States of America is simply outstanding. Volumn 2, recorded a number of years later, is just borderline acceptable. Billy May, who arranged and conducted both volumns, was noticbly in decline, and his performance adversly impacted Volumn 2. Acquire Volumn 1 at all costs, but avoid Volumn 2."
283223,2,This product is amazing though expensive,"This product does work better than cheaper alternatives - much better. Youtube for use instructions. I do use this but I found a faster way to get a similar effect (with Korean sponges with vibrators, for lack of a better description) so now I use it less. If you don't mind spending some extra time on your makeup than applying foundation by hand (though less than a stippling brush for me), the beautyblender is worth a try. It really makes your makeup look natural but with that extra airbrushed look/glow. When I used this the first time, my husband asked me if I got new makeup and said I was glowing. He rarely ever notices my makeup. If you use foundation and want a natural look that makes you look like you have perfect skin and don't mind spending a little too much on a sponge and a few extra minutes, give it a try."
283263,2,Aimee Mann ROCKS!,"This is a brilliant showcase for the artist known as Aimee Mann! Her meaningful songs are laced with intricate lyrics involving love,life, and basic human emotion! And a sweeter voice has never been heard! The work is very resembling of her last effort ""I'm With Stupid"" which should be one the classic albums of the 90's. Jon Brion is a great producer (check out Fiona Apples new album for Aimee sounding songs/production). I just hope everyone with still buy Bachelor # 2, when it comes out in late Jan early Feb, with about 4 more songs than the Magnolia selections! Lets help make Aimee the SUPERSTAR that she is!"
283269,2,Great Horror Remake and kills on Blu-Ray!,This is a very entertaining remake of the 70s classic by Bob Clark (RIP). Needless to say the sound and picture are quality both tremendous on Blu-Ray. If you like horror this is a must have. Merry X-mas!
283280,2,BUYER,"NICE PRODUCT, ASSEMBLY DIRECTIONS COULD BE BETTER,IT WAS A LITTLE CONFUSING PUTTING TURNTABLE TOGETHER.WISH I KNEW PRODUCT DID NOT COME WITH SPEAKERS.THIS WAS PROBLEMATIC. PRODUCT ITSELF IS TOP OF THE LINE.FAIR COMPETITIVE PRICE."
283315,2,Gain increased clarity and focus,"Recently I read the book Conzentrate and had to tell you how wonderful it is!As an entrepreneur, business consultant, trainer, writer, and Mom, I am often-times pulled in a thousand different directions simultaneously.Conzentrate gave me a framework to focus and get the most out of each situation and relationship. It is packed with practical techniques for increased effectiveness. I'm looking forward to juggling many projects with greater clarity. You can too!"
283370,2,A bachelor's dream!,"I love it! My first week with my new Panini Press, I made sandwiches out the ying-yang. It's even temperature and swivel top make incredibly yummy results. I highly recommend this product."
283434,2,IF you need to learn SQL THEN..,"Buy this book. When I first purchased this book I knew just enough SQL to be dangerous. Since that time I have gone through the entire book (3 weeks) trying everything. I really needed this to work on a peoplesoft project so time was short. Its been great to be able to translate the examples in the book to real work situations. Its a must for someone who has had ""some"" exposure, but needs to write some sophisticated queries for work or school."
283489,2,Terrific sheets,"Love these sheets. They truly are wrinkle free. They feel great, wash great! I can't wait to get another set!"
283600,2,Highly recommended if taking the IBCLC exam,Utilizing these practice exams helped me in preparing for the IBCLC exam. These practice exams helped me narrow my focus on areas I had more trouble with.
283601,2,Notorious,"Sick movie, especially if you are a Biggy fan. Actors do a great job of dipicting the characters they play, except for Puffy."
283714,2,LOVE this CD!!,I purchased two copies of this CD. I had a copy from when it was originally released but misplaced it so ordered a copy for myself and one as a gift for a family member. It is easily my favorite gospel CD and on my list of top favorite CDs regardless of genres.
283725,2,"Great Book, Must read!","Ramon found the fabulous Pearl of Heaven, but all it earned him was powerful enemies: one human, the other the notorious monster devilfish, The Manta Diablo, which guarded those waters. The story elements, rythmic writing, and the gravity of tone induce comparison to classic myth."
283772,2,pharothead phun,"This book is all about parrotheads, how phun. We are hard working people, and this book is about the zany antics that we parrotheads do during a day of vacation. Jimmymania is like being at the beach, a day of vacation. Jackson has put together a diary of our adventures. Thanks Jackson for making our photoalbums come to life. I give it an A+."
283870,2,"OF THE 3 VOL. SET, THE BEST","The author is not a professional historian. He does not know how to read the sources critically and is unable to select and reject the secondary literature, but he has a beautiful style, and if you're not too concerned with historical accuracy, it is a pleasing introduction to a fascinating subject. DOWN WITH GIBBON!"
283942,2,HOTT,THIS CD WAS HELL OF HOTT GO OUT AND BUY IT EVERYBODY THEY LOOK HELL OF HOTT AND I LOVE ALL THE SONGS AND I REALLY LOVE DUSTIN ALOT HE IS SOOOOOOO HOTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DAMN
284001,2,execellence,"This product is more than expected, thanks Amazon, now that I have a taste of how Niv application commentary is I want to get the whole collection. Book is new, informative, fast delivery and it is all that u expect a commentary (a useful) one to have."
284039,2,Great Stand,"perfect for the size of our television. great addition to our sunroom (all season room). the television is a perfect fit for this stand and it looks great, not unsightly like some television stands. recommend it highly.Gloria"
284117,2,Giants decal,"I had ordered this item for my better half who is a big Giant fan. When it arrived, I was a little disappointed. The decal is colorful, but very small.I guess this decal is made for a car window. But I still put it on the wall with tape (it is not very sticky) and has become another fun decal in the den."
284175,2,Good for Sucess and Wealth,The book Secrets of the Mmillionaire Mind is a good guide for the pursuit of success and wealth. I would recommend it to anyone.
284210,2,Not Just For Opera Lovers,"The Phantom of the Opera (Widescreen Edition)One word describes the quality of this DVD, Incredible. Let me clarify this comment. The condition of the DVD was excellent; however, the contents, the Movie, was incredible. I was skeptacle when my wife suggested I order this DVD. I am not an Opera fan, but I soon found out that Opera in this form can be fun and entertaining. Amazon, you've done it again; you have come through with your promise of quality for the customer.Thanks, Mike"
284271,2,Important book for the hate-ridden nation,"A well-documented collection of articles and essays about the prison nation USA and what it has done, and will do to the millions of American children, orphaned because their mom or dad, or both wanted to feel better in the hostile environment of today. The devastation of American families, proliferation of homosexuality as a result of mass incarceration, destruction of millions of lives - all these crimes of the American system of ""justice"" are well-documented and scholarly presented in this book. Invisible Punishment is highly recommended to those who want to understand the essence and the consequence of the world's largest, American Gulag. A great supplement to this fact-oriented book would be www.nationofhate.us - the web site that multiplies the impact of those facts with a powerful emotional impact (unrelated to the authors and publishers of the Invisible Punishment)."
284400,2,MIAMI HEAT - NBA CHAMPS!!! :),I'll be buying this! It sounds so sweet.... MIAMI HEAT NBA CHAMPIONS! :)
284427,2,Contemporary ensemble music for every day uplift!,"This contemporary ""chamber orchestra"" combines several genres of music to inspire, uplift and entertain today's weary souls. They are engaging performers in person and their new CD is easy to listen to DAILY on a CD player and in your mind. Their multi-level sound is hard to describe but should not be missed by anyone who responds to sometimes dramatic, sometimes light-hearted blends of musical genres and instruments. Never have I been more motivated to introduce everyone I know and now you, the reader, to such a new sound. If you can't experience them in person, as I have in a beautiful wine country outdoor setting, then don't hesitate to acquire their CD and welcome them into your living room, car, mind and heart."
284440,2,LIFE LESSONS,I enjoyed this book. I don't like to read so I miss out a lot but having the books on CD makes it possible for me to enjoy a good book. This book was very helpful to me in all aspects of my life.
284448,2,Merci à Amazon!,"J' ai offert ce C.D à un amateur qui le recherche depuis longtemps , cet article est introuvable en France.Je ne peux donner mon avis sur le produit , cependant je félicite l' expéditeur pour la rapidité et le soin apporté à l' emballage. Merci"
284474,2,Exactly what I was looking for,"I was pretty specific in the features I wanted in a messenger bag. This is the only one I found that had them all (front pocket, soda pocket, waterproof, carrying handle, pen holders, non-velcro fastening, etc). It's excellent."
284605,2,Very Happy,"So far, three people in my office have purchased this pedometer and have been very happy with it. It's not complicated and it seems very accurate. I like the feature of being able to clip it on my purse, espcecially when there is no place to hook it on my waist."
284639,2,WORKS GREAT,"This is the second pedometer I have had, and it works MUCH better than my old one. Try it you will not be disappointed."
284678,2,Leaving Anne Rice in the dust.,"I adore Jander Sunstar, I loved this book. It is one of the best vampire novels I have read. I enjoyed this more than anything Anne Rice has written. The storyline and plot made it hard for me to put this book down, Golden did a great job. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys dark fantasy, vampires, or AD&D. I just wish Golden would write more books with Jander."
284693,2,review of the Demos,"I've played the single player demo, and I've also seen 3 gameplay movies. I think it's fair to call this the succesor to MOH:AA. The feeling I got from playing this demo reminds me of MOH:AA.Sound, Graphic, Control...it's all so crisp and precise.I noticed that you have an unlimited number of reinforcement. I'm hoping it's limited for the full release to give challenge. As it stands, that's the only 'flaw' I can see in the game thusfar."
284751,2,The greatest book ever?,"This book is the funniest book I have ever read! It gives you helpful tips on what to do when your tired and driving, when you are coked up and pulled over by a cop. The best part is how to act in Birmingham, Alabama. It also has helpful charts like what the water tastes like in each of the 53 states. If you thought the State was funny buy this book, if you thought the State sucked, buy this book. It's hilarious!!!"
284772,2,Typcial O'Reilly,"I've learned many programming languages over the years. It amazes me how O'Reilly has consistently produced the best reference material on the market.In this book, I liked the fact the Flanagan didn't overlook details such as security, communication with applets, and compatibility issues between Navigator and Explorer.My compliments."
284859,2,The Victors,"From the very beginning of the book I was enticed. I thought it was very well written and an enjoyable read. It includes stories and things I would have never expected. I thought the relationship between Marshall and Eisenhower was most interesting. I had not learned much about Marshall and Eisenhower's personalities. They were opposites yet worked very well together. Their relationship was based on trust. It is inspirational to hear of all that our soldiers went through during World War II. As someone looking back it helped me to better understand what went on and what the soldiers experienced first hand. I thought ""The Victors"" was a wonderful book and spanned over a good period of time. I would highly recommend it to others as a World War II informative book."
284861,2,Women on fire!,"Bored? Nothing to do? Tired of yet another weekend painting your toenails & renting videos? Get a copy of Wendy & Erin's elegant book & work your way through all the mayhem & mangled metaphors ~ even if you don't leave your apartment, you'll have had one helluva fun read!Do catch my eInterview with this lively pair of hip chicks as they do more for the demise of marriage than a bus load of divorce lawyers. This book is packed with ideas for solo adventures ranging from the mild to the wild.Caution: just because one of these hip chicks is the daughter of a preacherman, does not mean the language is biblical, far from it! This dynamic duo have a keen & immodest sense of the absurd, the breathless & the energetic.For anyone whose palette has been coated over with the monotony of bureaucracy & cramped city living. Go get 'em, girls!"
284869,2,Great book,"I liked this book a lot.It was a very good ghost story.I totally don't feel ripped off for buying it.I don't like part of how it turned out but hey, what can you do?Unlike most reviewers, I don't like to explain a story in a review, it takes away the fun for the potential reader.I like reviews that say: it's worth buying or it isn't worth buying. If it isn't worth buying, give some reasons, if it is worth buying, no reasons needed... SO, here you go:What do you want in a Stephen King book?-a book that makes you stay up to finish it-a book that will scare you a lot(This book meets up with the above requirements, nuff said)"
284874,2,Truly Magnificent!,"This is one of King's best books. It is called a haunted love story, and for the most part it is. It covers almost every aspect including a little ""wierdness"" that usually accompanies a King novel. The main character, Mike Noonan, is a best selling novelist who's wife passed away suddenly. While finding little clues about what his wife was hiding from him, he a dilema of his own: writers block. To solve this problem, he returns to their place at the lake they called Sara Laughs and tries to write. But while their, he starts seeing shadows and items shuffling around the cabin. Then he meets a much younger woman who's husband was killed and has young daughter. He finds out that they are having trouble with her father-in-law. Many many problems to solve and only one book to solve them all. A must for any King fan and those who are not will be very surprised at how well written this is. I read the last 325 pages in one night and it gave me chills."
284882,2,"Make no Bones about it, this is a great read!!","Just wanted to let all those would be Stephen King readers out there know, If you want to start somewhere, this is it! This book combines all he qualities that true fans have come to love over the years. The dream sequences, the vividness. You can almost feel a ghostly hand of a long dead loved one, wrapping around your neck as you flip through the pages of this amazing, but never ordinary ghost tale. This story brings a little more life to the idea that so many of us have often been faced with. When someone close to you passes on, which one of us hasn't lay awake at night, almost feeling them in the bed or watching from some dark corner of the room? We always wonder if they are really there. In this work of "" The Master"" it becomes all to real a possiblity.Enjoy, but not feel silly if you have to sleep with book cover face down on the night stand. And what every you do, don't look under the bed.!!!"
284885,2,Strong Heavy Storytelling,"What I liked the most about Bag Of Bones was the insight in which Stephen King gives the writer mentallity, and shows a little of his heart to the genre, as well as his dedication to his work. With Mike Noonan, King develops a strong main character, a must for a novel of this type, told in first person. He develops strong supporting characters Mattie Devore, John Storrow, and does a superb job of entangling the reader in a two way story of ghosts and child custody. Bag Of Bones delivers some of the best twists in a Stephen King book, some that you will never see coming, and has a sad, but necessary ending. Bag Of Bones will leave the Stephen King fan with tears in their eyes, and butterflies in your throat. The novel symbolizes the aspect of writing, and you actually think at some points of the novel, is this Stephen King talking, or Mike Noonan?"
284909,2,"D-Day, The Climactic Battle of World War II","For anyone interested in getting real insight as to what it took to successfully invade France during WW2, this is the book. Ambrose takes all necessary attention to explaining the massive preparation that made invasion possible. While he misses none of the political and logistical points, he also manages to bring the reader on board the Higgens boats, C-17s, and gliders. The tension of those moments fills the reader. Ambrose never loses the notion that each man who fell had a life and wanted to keep it. A wonderful book. I have given four copies to friends as gifts. Three never before read historical non-fiction. All four have continued on to buy other books by this gifted writer."
284953,2,"Simply told, persuasive story of a child who survived","Kenny gives us a dispassionate glimpse into a bright child's mind and heart and the character-shaping events of depression era Hollywood. Her family lived in poverty, their children helping provide support by acting. In contrast, Kenny felt loved by wealthy childless people and was shuttled between two worlds. Her poignant account of pain, resolve, love and rejection, provides a unique glimpse into the destructive possibilities that she was able to overcome."
285034,2,Black Hawk Down,"I read this book last spring, but I intend to read it again after the attack on the WTC. The events in this book could easily happen during a campaign in Afghanistan. With the help of Mr. Bowden, I felt that I was the streets fighting with our soldiers. Those who read this book now can understand what a dirty, but necessary, job our troops are facing."
285057,2,A very powerful little book.,"One-hundred short 2-page ideas/suggestions that really open your eyes about the way your mind works. Gets into the psychology of why we think and do such stupid and self-defeating stuff, and shows you a better way to handle everyday situations.If you're stressed-out or angry at anything, this book will put your problems in perspective and put your mind at peace. I plan on keeping it handy to refer to whenever I'm in a lousy mood. I found (and dog-eared) several pages that described me and my attitudes exactly. There are several people I know at work who really NEED this book.Highly recommended!"
285078,2,Read this one aloud,"The rhythm of sentence fragments, lists of images, occasional insertion of a farsical headline, harsh purity of the characters. You can't help like Quoyle and his daughters, Sunshine and Bunny, in spite of their ordinariness. You can't help fall into the dialect of the Newfoundland fishermen and the reporters who, with Quoyle, prepare The Shipping News. Fun to read. Anxious approach to each new chapter. Waves on the shores. Boats capsizing. Bodies floating. What will happen to Quoyle tonight? Man Finds Romance Reading Aloud to Wife"
285220,2,Two down --- tons to go!!,Another excellent novel by Janet Evanovich!! I don't think it is going to take me long to catch up on this series!
285278,2,this game is awosome!!!!!! : ),im tellin u that this game is cool. although the controls r confusin this game is the best game of the year. best game ever!!!!
285306,2,Modern Recording Techniques,The book arrived in a timely manner and was in good shape when it arrived. We were 100% satisfied.
285415,2,Boba Fett...as a kid!,"Patton has always been funny. His take on the Anne Frank house is totally awesome. This is great though, besides the live cd you get a dvd with earlier takes. The star wars jokes were really original. Yay."
285441,2,Works Great!,"I really wasn't expecting miracles when I bought this. I was tired of constantly buying air fresheners that never seemed to last very long. I've been using this for about 2 weeks and I love it. My car doesn't smell like anything in particular...it's a non-smell I really can't explain. It really sucks odors (good or bad) out of there.I was running late for work and didn't finish my breakfast one morning, so i just left it in my car. Now my car was sitting in an open parking lot in the hot sun for 8 hours. Even though I cracked my windows, I thought it might stink a little. Imagine my surprise when I smelled almost NOTHING! Now, of course it's not on when your car is off, but before I bought this my car would have smelled for sure and it would have taken me awhile to air it out. With this gadget, any lingering odor was dispelled quickly once I turned the car on. I actually forgot I had left any food in the car at all.It's small, silent and it works!"
285486,2,Amazing Adventures at Sea,"My brother recommended this book and I'm glad he did. Although I would never go to sea myself, I loved reading this book. I ended up buying the series, but this first book is still my favorite."
285489,2,Short chapters increases readability,"This book has 132 chapters but is a breeze to read. The author's style of coming up with short, fast paced chapters will be a surprise to most readers familiar with long, detailed descriptive chapters. But once through the book, one will realize the unforgettable characters, remember a lot of scenes, be thankful that the story is just fictional. Great characterizations not sacrified by the short, direct to the point style of Patterson. Kept me reading till my eyes hurt"
285539,2,missing opening theme,Good techno stuff.I don't think anyone has mentioned the missing intro them (micro brain tour). I haven't been able to get any info on this.
285544,2,STIMULATING INSIGHT ABOUT CRITICAL THINKING,"Both authors gave new insights into critical thinking which stems not from just ignorance of it, but the will and the discipline of practicing critical thinking in our professional and personal lives. Awareness of criticial thinking that does not necessary lead to action. It is common knowledge but not common practice. The traits of fair-minded thinking have been useful and need more illustrative examples. The inclusion of the standards of thinking is useful. It would be better to include some assessments on the standards of thinking and some simple tests of critical thinking at the beginning of the book to motivate readers to read on. The book cannot be read like a novel and has to be read carefully to understand the thoughts from both the authors."
285559,2,"FUNNY, Madea is great","Great story line, love Madea. The cast was wonderful. One of my favorite Tyler Perry movie. Can't wait for the next one."
285566,2,Funny and always has a lesson,I like Tyler Perry. As Madea he is hilarious! But Madea always has good advice somewhere in there. I would reccomend this. Always a good laugh!
285569,2,Everything you need to know.,This book fully prepared me for the GED. I had to study everything for highschool and this book covered it all and then some. I passed with flying colors. Recommend for anyone and everyone preparing to take the GED test.
285665,2,Great Juke Box Musical,"Saw the national company in San Francisco and had no expectations whatsoever, but loved it!!! Always liked the music anyway. This should be the prototype for any further juke box musicals. Most should be relegated to theme parks, but Jersey Boys is a perfect example of a well crafted, intelligent musical using popular music. What a great time!"
285668,2,It's what I expected,"I was pleased with the content of the cast recording. There's plenty of music and enough dialog to tell the story. If you like the Four Seasons or even like musical theater, you can't go wrong with this."
285674,2,Recommended with Reservations,"My rating here is more of a 3 and 1/2 star, as I think the novel is worth reading, but the writing is often awkward. Sometimes it seems as if editing has created gaps that are not smooth. But the story itself is well-meaning and on target for those concerned about the professionalism of our military. It's a moderately interesting tale of two majors sent to the Pentagon to act as liasons for Pentagon generals. Their romance is one of the awkward aspects of the novel, but each character is likable in his or her own way. The Pentagon generals, especially Ames, are a bit cartoonish. So, yes, I liked the novel, and recommend it with reservations that it may not be the most well-written story you will read."
285689,2,Great!,Uplifting book with insightful meditations. Practical prayers and stories for the person looking for something positive to read.
285712,2,Great Characters,"I enjoy this series because of the complicated and interesting characters, set in engaging plots. For once, a series has hired writers who know how to develop characters."
285724,2,Witty & hilarious,"This is a great show, it may take a little bit to get into it, but once you do, you'll be addicted."
285729,2,Good read!,I really enjoyed this book but have to say I disliked the rushed ending. You never find out how the heroine makes her way back to England or know what the hero goes through to try and find her. It just happens. Despite that I have to say that I am willing to read it again. Not her best but DEFINITELY not her worst.
285746,2,LOVE! Breaking Bad,"I am a HUGE fan of Breaking Bad, and Season 4 blew my mind. I cannot recommend it strongly enough. I have several of the other seasons on DVD, but got Season 4 via Amazon Streaming. Very easy to use, very good quality video."
285821,2,good,my friend lent me this book. I also saw the movie after reading. I enjoyed both but I think the book was better.This was a quick read which is great for me( mom of two).I can't wait to try more of Sparks books.
285863,2,One of the best books I have read in a long time!,"I bought the paperback because it sounded interesting. I have never really enjoyed westerns but something about the premise of the book appealed to me. Since starting Sunshine Rider I haven't been able to put it down. It's a terrific book full of humor, adventure and wonderful characters. The plot is full of original events and laugh-out-loud situations. This is one of the best books I have read in quite a while. I have 40 pages left to read and am now taking my time because I don't want the book to end. You don't have to read westerns or be a vegetarian to enjoy this wonderful story. You will be amazed by this sleeper of a book just as I have been."
285888,2,Pretty Knits,"When buying a book of patterns it is often being purchased just for one pattern that you have seen and like so much that you are prepared to pay the book price. I thought that was going to be the case when buying this book as I was purchasing it just for the Shell pattern knitted in Venus yarn (how pretty is that Shell?)but was pleasantly surprised to find a few other patterns that have caught my eye and that, along with the very reasonable price paid, has made this book a bargain.Probably one of my better purchases."
285900,2,Stacy's Mom is pretty,"I think Fountains of Wayne is a good band and group. Stacy's Mom is really hot, and the song stacy's mom is really good! The last person who said that Fountains of Wayne sucks, sucks. Even though I'm only 10 he's a real idiot and I know what good music is."
285908,2,Good read,I thought this book brought a good understanding on the doctrine of Calvary Chapel. It is put together well and was very insightful.
285932,2,The Rescue,"I received the book quickly and in good condition. The book "" The Rescue"" was very suspensful. I would recommend the book to anyone who like a nice story with some mystery."
285963,2,most useful pan ever,"We purchased this pan approximately 6 months ago, and have found it to be the most versatile pan we have ever owned. It is lightweight, extremely easy to clean, distributes heat evenly and quickly. It is useful as a fryer, as a dutch oven, a steamer, and for pretty much anything you need to cook by any means. It can go from stovetop to oven and act act as a serving dish when its dinnertime. The see thru cover is very useful to observe items while they cook. The depth and slightly sloping sides make it perfect for cooking just about anything. We have used it daily, and are very satisfied with the quality and the way it is holding up to heavy usage. We just purchased a 2nd, and with 2, believe that just about any complete meal could be served up quickly and easily. It is so easy to clean that it makes it a total joy to use. We've purchased very expensive pans in the past, and @ $40, consider this a real bargain. You will not regret getting this pan."
285976,2,Inspiring Book,This piece of religious reading is charming written and an easy read. I have re-read it a couple of times now and am sharing it with others who also have loved it. Thanks for quick shipping and careful packaging.
285982,2,Not to be missed,"This volume in Tunis's trilogy of social histories (the others are ""Colonial Living"" and ""Frontier Living"") focuses on an era that tends not to be as closely studied by most people as are the Revolutionary era and the 19th Century, which means that books about it are thin on the ground. But if, by some chance, it's one of your interests, ""The Young United States"" is a book you must definitely add to your collection. With Tunis's trademark highly detailed pen-and-ink illo's and clear, well-written commentary, it provides an excellent overview of how all levels of society lived during the 40-odd years under consideration. I found it indispensable in determining how the father of one of my fictional characters--a veteran of the War of 1812--would have grown up and what his surroundings would have been like in Federal America. Adult researchers should not fail to consult it."
285983,2,Serving it's purpose,The bottle portion is great but the transition to sippy is a bit messy since there is nothing to stop the flow when you switch the nipples.
286044,2,Great book for every mom and child!,This book helped me through alot with my daughter. I've learned to understand and appreciate her more. Recommended!
286064,2,Works Like It's Supposed To,"The product comes in little dual packets, very similar to the wet napkins you get on an airplane or at a barbeque restaurant. One package holds the wet towel, the other holds a dry towel. It is important to dry the screen immediately, or the cleaning solution leaves spots (easy to remove). I like the karma cloth for dusting and polishing. The only issue I have is that the product is a little expensive but I will likely buy it again when it runs out."
286076,2,Perhaps his best yet?,It may not be Holy Diver but it sure is close. This is perhaps Ronnie's second best (solo) album he has put together. Doug Aldrich is a very good guitarist and is a great pickup for the band. I saw the Deep Purple/Dio tour this summer and Ronnie still has it. This is my favorite Dio album which comes as a surprise because Majica was probably my least favorite. If you dont have this you are missing out on a great piece of work. Heavy with very creative material.
286084,2,Imzadi,"This is the best Star Trek book I've read to date. True to the series and characters. The story, plot and effective writing style make this a can't put down book. I wanted it to go on forever!"
286104,2,SIMPLE BUT AMAZING,"I WAS GIVEN TWO OF THESE ON VHS BY A FRIEND, HER KIDS WERE TOO OLD FOR THEM. I LEFT THEM IN THE BOX OF ODDS AND ENDS FOR MONTHS.I CAME ACROSS THEM ONE DAY AND THOUGHT I WOULD PUT ONE IN.MY DAUGHTER LOVED THEM, THEY ARE SIMPLE, ALMOST ON THE CHEESEY SIDE. BUT MY DAUGHTER COULD NOT GET ENOUGH, I JUST BOUGHT THE WHOLE SET AND MY SON IS NOW HOOKED.THEY ARE A GREAT BUY AND I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM."
286161,2,It will make you a more sophisticated traveler.,"I read Karma Cola before my first trip to India in 1983. It helped me understand that I cannot fully comprehend this beautiful, exotic culture. It is enough to merely observe and marvel in it.I appreciate her irreverent tone, which reminds me of Tom Wolfe."
286217,2,"It's a perfect book to gain knowledge as well as skills,,,,","There are many reasons for having this book but let me relate to you what only two points did for me:Gradually I became stressed. I found it hard to concentrate on anything, even the things I once enjoyed -- Even watching a movie became a task. I was too tense to concentrate, which made it hard to remember anything. I avoided people because even talking became stressful. I became so tense at times that I had difficulty breathing.Then I got this book.The smile principle showed me that if I smile to others, others smile back. Afterwards I felt wonderfully calm and at peace with the world.Following that brought about throwing out a thing a day. Y, I tried it. It basically quietens your chattering mind, and reduces 'noise on the brain'.I can't _stress_ enough how vital this book is for conquering tension, stress, and emotional unrest.Get it for yourself and feel much better."
286255,2,Excellent,This is a must have for anyone needing to write in this format. Provides clear examples and explainations.
286299,2,It is fun,"I played the demo at Gamestop too. If you like Samba De Amigo or DDR, you will love this game...but you probably already know that. If you like music and video games, you should like it as well. The drums are a lot more responsive than I originally thought they would be. Great peripheral at a great price. Heck, Samba was $50 and another $80 for the maracas. The drums are included with Donkey Konga."
286444,2,Spectacular.,An amazing collection of pictures. I have a handlebar moustache and couldn't imagine not having this in my collection. A must for the enthusiast of facial hair or photography. Or both. :)
286599,2,"overall good, i would buy again","i read alot of reviews on many different brands before i selected these as my purchase. first thing if your new to wireless headphones they will never sound as good as wired . that being said i would buy these again if i lost them, that right there tells you that they work well. PROS: sound good at medium voulme ( you cant crank em really loud gets static) . comfort is really amazing considering they are so huge, i can watch movies all the way thru without pain. very easy to setup . CONS: the famous Hiss you allways get when there is silent parts to a movie (annoying but part of wireless headphones) . the sound is only good not awesome (my jabra Halo bluetooth playing thru iphone is awesome sound) . OVERALL: Easy to use, comfortable, sounds good, solid purchase as long as u can handle hiss when silent parts to movies."
286616,2,"Buy them, children learn!","I bought the first two DVD's for my 3 year old and 1 year old so they would have familiarization to the language. They loved them! They both go around singing the songs, what a great way to introduce the language to children. Children singing to children! Mei Mei is very animated which is especially inviting to children. I have just ordered Volumes 3 & 4 for Christmas, I can't wait to view them as I am learning too. So easy not to!Do not be put off by Volume 1, the kids love it and the next volume is a better production."
286666,2,At Long Last!,I've been looking for this CD for awhile. Once again I found what I needed on Amazon! Paul Kimble is a multi-talented genius! This should have received more wide spread play and promotion. If you've not heard it I recommend you give it a listen and enjoy!
286713,2,Great Game,This is a great game for hard core gamers and for rookies. It's fairly easy to figure out and one feature that is very nice is the ability to run from a battle.
286753,2,Rising to the Derby?,"I've always liked the Star and Christina books, and now that Star is back in racing form, he's doing better than ever! A must read, especially if you've read the books that have mentioned Celtic Mist in them. I'm sooooo happy the books are about racing, I love it! I love jumping, but racing is much more origonal. I can't wait for Team Player to come out!"
286811,2,Angelic Voices,"What a wonderful adventure. Not only did I travel and experience with the characters, but my own life became an overlay for each step of the adventure. The odyssey and messages became my journey and opportunity to experience my life through a different perspective - actually several. This is not only great entertainment. It is transformative."
286835,2,"Odd line-dead sound, but still connected","These phones have been just fine. The only complaint I have is that while you are speaking to someone, it sounds to you like the line has gone dead, but it hasn't. Eventually, you will hear it come back ""alive"" again. I am assuming that this is maybe due to the Dect 6.0 ""quiet"" feature. As long as you learn to ignore it and trust that you are still connected, there's no problem. Great product for the money."
286872,2,Back to the 70's,"I had never seen this mini series before. It was typical of the multipart minis of that time. Very entertaining, but tame by today's offerings"
286887,2,for the money -- great buy,"after reading some of the horrible reviews, i was really hesitant in buying these trays. But compared to the prices i saw elsewhere i figured they were worth the 70 bucks (free shipping). Im glad i did, they are simple easy to use table trays ... i wasnt expecting custom wood with excellent castle style finishes becasue i didnt pay for that. For the complainers (always are going to be some) you get what you pay for, the trays are fine, do the job but arent idiot prooof. If you push the table it falls, if you put too many plates they wont fit, if you bang them they will scratch.its a good buy for the price, if you want mahogany wood or other similar high priced woodwith excellent finishes, contact a woodssmith and get ready to pay more then 70.cheers"
286898,2,Amazing!,"You know who lead Toad. This is a near perfect album.When I re-discovered it, it was the perfect moment for me and the lyrics and emotion are profound. Thanks Glen!"
286900,2,Exciting Album From Glen's Solo Career,"I'm a long time Toad fan and have followed Glen's solo career ever since the breakup. I'm no good at reviews, so all I will do is what I do best when I like something; really like something - GUSH. This album is fun, deep and everything that you can expect from a very talented musician and songwriter. Hooray!"
286903,2,excellent career guide for women,"I found the book a useful guide to exploring options - how to find them and how to make the best choices - it offers new perspectives on career directions for women - have shared it with many of my friends - a great ""gift"" to anyone facing change"
286917,2,Just what we ordered,"These cameras are being used in an environment for lots of people to share and to learn about video communication. So far, they are durable, and work just as advertised. I would definitely buy them again."
286987,2,enormous bowl,I bought this bowl hoping to use it as a serving dish for my family. Maybe I missed the measurements somewhere. I could put enough food for 10-20 people. Very large. I kept it using it as fruit bowl on my counter. Even then it is BIG! It does look nice clean lines. If you need BIG this is it.
287046,2,"Cheap, good sound - just keep 'em clean!","I love mine and have had them for two years now with no serious problems. I too, had what I thought was a dead set after a year, but I discovered otherwise.Reviewers that might have had problems with their Fontopias should check the buds for ""blockage"" and possibly reconsider/amp up their personal hygine. I found that it is easy for the tiny speaker hole to get dirt, wax, etc. in it making it seem like the earphone is dead. Careful cleaning fixed the problem for me, and occasional Q-tip use in the ol' ears helps keep the earbuds clean.These work great under a motorcycle helmet and you can still hear some outside noise if you keep the music down or off (say, while in the city/not on open country roads)."
287050,2,Sound Great w My Ipod,"I am listening to these right now and they sound great. I do not find any problem with the EQ or bass response at all. Most importantly for me, they fit in my ears and stay there. I must have a different ear shape versus the general population because my Ipod ear buds fall right out. These fit in the ear, block out the rest of the world and bring out music that I have never heard before. They include a very short chord and an extension. I only wish that the chord was about 6 inches longer. It must be designed to connect to an MP3 player worn on the arm but a few more inches before needing to add the extenstion would have helped. They also include a small carrying case and an even smaller case that the ear pieces fit into to stop tangling and - best of all - it actually works!"
287085,2,Great product,Love these for the race track. You can also wear them with a hat to keep the sun off your head and out of your eyes. Quality is great.
287124,2,"Finally, a great look at American adolescence.","This volume is the first on a new series on Adolescence and Education, edited by two renown professors, Frank Pajares of Emory University and Tim Urdan of Santa Clara University. This first book covers general issues and begins with a first-rate chapter from Barbara Finkelstein that provides an overview of the history of adolesncence from an American perspective. The Woolfolk, Midgley, and Kaufman chapters are superb. The book should be of interest to anyone interested in how modern scholars are conceptualizing adolescence in American society today."
287174,2,Good Disc,"Though I prefer his Live Discs of the 60's&70's better this one is Good.He Does His Covers of TIme after Time,A Perfect Way&Prince's Movie Star which is a Trip out song that Prince had done underground Several Years Back but he finally put it out on his Crystal Ball Set.Miles is Mellow&Spaces Well on these two-Discs."
287178,2,I found it very helpful,"I found this book to be an excellent way to see the relationship of the name to the energies in the numbers. His system also helps one to see the relationship between the numbers themselves. A great book for someone already associated with the basic meanings of the numbers, and it makes for excellent party conversation."
287232,2,Good Movie and exellent extra materials,"Classic stuff and worth having in any home library. One criticism; the cover shows the film in color, but it is really black and white (as it should be)."
287249,2,"Great movie, great transaction!!!","Movie's great for anyone interested in punk rock history, especially if you come from the midwest. At times the people spotlighted can seem a little immature as they vent their still fuming feuds on camera but the information passed on makes up for it. Bonus features rule! And are hilarious!"
287268,2,"scary for Disney, a must see","My roommate is scared to death of this movie. The carnival, Mr. Dark and the whole Merry-go-round thing is just so freaky to him."
287280,2,The Last Waltz concert video,The only problem I had with this purchase was the the first thing that was sent to me was an empty dvd case. Amazon's automated online customer service doesn't have an option for a case like this. And clearly they discourage phone calls since no contact number is listed anywhere. But with a little research I was able to find a number for them. Once I called the problem was fixed promptly. I was sent a new dvd within 2 days at no charge. The representative was polite and corrected the problem promptly. The dvd itself is good. I like The Band and all the celebrity preformances are great. I just wonder why the version of the song The Weight is not from the concert. It is a prerecored version of the song with The Staple Singers. Not my favorite version of the song. Would have been nice to see it done live.
287284,2,The Best Music Movie You'll Ever See,"The artists, the filmimg, the sound quality are all the best you will ever see!"
287331,2,Wonderful techniques for power and love.,"This book opened my eyes and heart to the life power techniques. I am very ecxiting again about being powerful. Thanks for a great book, Uri.RegardsAmy Larson"
287449,2,Star Wars with details,"I purchased this set to replace old VHS tapes. The improvements in picture and sound quality is worth the investment. To other reviewers, a few seconds of new scenes in hours of great high resolution sci-fi does not diminish its value."
287453,2,The Best Movies Ever!!!!,"These are the best movies ever!!!! There will never be another movie/movies like it!!!! Return of the Jedi is my favorite, next is the Empire Strikes Back, then a New Hope, and last but not least, the Phantom Menace. The characters are awesome, and it hardly even seems like they're acting, it's so good! The story is perfect, the effects are fab, and it all seems so real. I'm a girl, yes, a girl, and I love these movies to death. Han and Leia make the perfect couple, and the movies would not have been as good without the love story. George Lucas, and everyone else who particapated in this movie,(including the awesome actors/actresses,I think Han is sooo cute!)you did a perfect job. May the force be with us fans. Always."
287480,2,The VERY BEST movie series EVER!!!!!!!,"I will not write much because a popular movie series that is as spectacular as the Star Wars Trilogy does not need a review. I bought this special edition from Amazon... BOY!!! I love these movies. Definitely my favorite movie series ever. I put this movie series even over Indiana Jones!Every Star Wars fan should buy the Special Edition. This is after all closer to the vision that Lucas wanted. The special effects are dazzling. I loved the frequent city scan views, the bigger, realer explosions, and just the overall improvement of the colors. My favorite add-in however, is the final scene in ROTJ. The final celebration was MARVELOUS! Mos Heisley, Coruscant, and Cloud City just looked wayyyyy cool! SPECTACULAR MOVIES!!!"
287489,2,Book your box at the Space Opera,"Forget the pointless debate about which version is the true Star Wars just for the moment and think: do you want to watch these fantastic films (which I reckon are great in both versions) in grainy old video stereo or sparkly 5.1 surround? On the evidence of today's viewing and the fabulous 2.5 hour main feature documentary this is a must have for any Star Wars fan.Just one complaint from me (hence not quite a 5 star - I'd have given it 4.95 if I could): by George's own admission and that of many others this is a 'space opera'. So why do DVD producers continue to almost complete ignore the composer of Star Wars and focus only on the librettist, production and techno-geeks (God bless 'em all!)?"
287508,2,Excellent Christmas Surprise,I remember watching these dvd's when I was much younger and loving them. I surprised my husband with them for Christmas (our first Christmas together since getting married). He was very happy and personally I am excited to watch them all again.
287565,2,Neat clock with extras,"We can tell the temperature instead of having to go outside and check how cold it is, or have to look online or watch the news and see what it is out there at the present time. The temperature sensor goes outside. It tells the temperature inside and out, the time, what moon cycle it is, the day, and date.Sometimes it has a problem updating with satellites to update the time, like when we switched to Daylight Savings time, it took several days"
287567,2,"Blessed by God, Oswald Chambers","Been doing My Utmost for His Highest for 6 years. Never cease to be amazed at how God allows it to speak to my heart, attitude and sin. Not for the faint of heart...unless you desire to grow through the conviction it brings. Have gifted this book to several...some I know have put it down quickly."
287625,2,shopping experience,Hello is excellent given the Serbian and products arrived on time and without irregularidad.Deja skin soft and is basically painless. Thank you for your services I recommend.
287656,2,Excellent compilation of readings for economics of the firm,"All the information you need and the appropiate readings are here in this book, which can be very usefull for the study of the economics of a firm and many other topics in business economics. Worth a look!"
287714,2,"Great seat, love it!","I love the seat! My daughter is 12 months and we went for our first ride a few days ago. She LOVED it and cried when we got home. She is a bit fascinated by bikes and motorcycles though.The seat is really tough to get onto the rack, although I plan to just leave it in place for the most part. Maybe after taking it off/on a few times it would loosen a little? But I am glad it feels secure. I agree the foot straps are a little weird, but I just strapped them over the front (toe) of her shoe and that worked OK.As for the rack, I took my bike for a tune-up and brought the rack so the bike shop installed it for free. Love it!"
287747,2,LOVE THIS TRIPOD,"LOVE THIS TRIPOD. FITS ALL MY CAMERA'S (NIKON D40, P80, AND AN OLD VIVITAR 35MM)THE LEVALER HELPS. AND THE TRIPOD IS SO LIGHT WEIGHT YOU CANT BELIVE THAT ITS THAT AMAZING FOR THE PRICE IT IS. I SAW THE SAME TRIPOD AT CIRCUT CITY FOR $60."
287761,2,Amazing,"I have very thick, straight hair, and this makes my hair so soft. It also really moisturizes my scalp. I always get compliments on the sheen and softness my hair."
287802,2,Read the stats folks... know what your getting,"Read the recommended age and stop bashing it because you bought one for your 8 year old!!! This thing is hilarious, everyone should buy one."
287824,2,Love the washcloth,I absolutely love the Aquis microfiber wash cloth! It cleanses thoroughly and rinses out clean. I use it in the kitchen also.Nancy Mills
287859,2,"An brilliant album, done by 2 great singers.","Personally, I never used to really like the Warren Brothers until I saw them in concert. They were phenomenal!! On top of that, i got to meet them in person. This CD ""The King of Nothing"" shows their true colors. From songs such as ""Strange"", ""Moving On"", their title track, to the emotional ballad ""Thats the beat of a heart"", this CD could'nt be any better. This is not a traditional country group, however they can still hold a place in the country music scene. Give or take a few more albums, and this group will be up there with the big ones. Great job on this CD, Brett and Brad!!Total CD time: 43 min"
287929,2,Herbology 101,"Great overview of herbs and their magical, medicinal, and other uses. A great book for anyone who ever wondered about herbs like Mugwort, Mandrake, or Gilliweed. Are they real? What are they really used for? This book will tell you that and So Much More!"
287962,2,Count Basie always great,"Enjoyed just about everyone except George Benson he did not seem to fit . His style at odds with the band. Always enjoy Sarah and Joe, also Tony Bennett. Would enjoy just the band on it's own!"
288031,2,A great album - purchased because of Napster,"Having downloaded a song I knew, ""Joyride"" from Napster, I decided to try some other Roxette songs. After checking out a few more tracks, I realized that I knew and loved many songs from this band. ""It must have been love"", ""The look"", ""Dangerous"" and ""Joyride"" are outstanding. I'm a huge fan of other female-fronted bands such as Concrete Blonde and Natalie Merchant. Marie Fredrikssone's strong, breathtaking vocals on the band's ballads don't disappoint and are a strong ""hook"" for me. I just wanted to emphasize that if it weren't for Napster's exposure, I wouldn't have bought this album. Not only did I purchase this release, but I am anxiously awaiting their next album, to be released (hopefully) by mid-2001."
288050,2,Have used for two years,This helps immensely with neck support-eliminated neck pain for me. I also have one that I use for my lower back. Has held up well. I am ordering more today for other family members
288056,2,Works great!,"I was actually looking at a vertical draw, shoulder holster but this appeared more convenient. My scoped Ruger SBH Hunter fits this perfectly and is very comfortable to carry all day."
288132,2,Tangled dvd,"This is a GREAT choice of our most TERRIFIC purchases via Amazon.com for our little princess lovers & our little ""Flynn Rider Wanna-Be's"" !!! They have SOOOO enjoyed it!!! so we were super happy to purchase this item which they beg to watch EVERDAY! REALLY GREAT ITEM!"
288198,2,Surprisingly great album!!,"After hearing Michelle's second hit single ""All You Wanted"" I thought to myself...""hmmm this girl could go somewhere."" So I finally picked up the album a few weeks ago. Before I listened to it I didn't really have high expectations and thinking that it would probably be full of sappy ballads. Well to my surprise there was only one slow song and that is the last one ""Drop in the Ocean."" I only had to listen to this cd once to fall in love with it. It is a big PLUS in my book for the singer to have written their own material and Michelle both writes and plays her own guitar! I like all the songs on this album but my favorite of hers is definitely ""Here With Me."" Not only it this song catchy but it seems as if it was written by myself because I can relate to it so well. Other stand out tracks are ""Everywhere"",""All You Wanted"",""You Set Me Free"", and ""Sweet Misery.""Great job Michelle!!! Can't wait for the next album!"
288224,2,The best album of 2005,This is album is great and it is one of her best.If you liked the first single Hung Up you will like the whole album.
288263,2,Great album,"I've only heard of the anime, I've yet to see it. The music on this album is nothing like what I expected Hellsing to be, yet it's a fantastic album nonetheless. I ripped it from my brother's CD (which was written in Japanese) so I don't have a song list, I'll just have to list my favorite songs as #1, 2, 4 11, 12, and 16."
288272,2,Works without issue,"Very easy use, set the battery type and charge amps, and you're good to go. I have used this now on both a marine starting and marine deep cycle battery, and it does it's job with ease. Seeing the battery % really makes this easy to use. The only thing is that sometimes when you hook it up to a deep cycle battery it doesn't read correctly, where it will show really low battery %, like 10%. This is corrected by taking off the power for a couple of seconds, and then replacing it. If you are charging an old battery for the first time, and aren't sure of where it stands, be ready for this possibility."
288314,2,Outdoor Kitty loves it!,"I have a stray, slightly feral cat that decided to take up residence on my back porch. Since the weather was getting so cold I made him a bed from a large cardboard box with 3 flaps up to stop the wind, along with a bed pillow and some blankets. He liked it but I was concerned that it was too chilly still on those 15F degree nights. For safety reasons I didn't want wires or electricity with a plug in warming mat.I added this thermal mat on top of the bedding along with a Snuggle Safe heating disk under it to one side. He took to the bed pretty quickly with a day or two afterwards. He sleeps on it nearly every night! Outdoor Kitty is a happy kitty!The mat is thicker then I imagined, very plush. The core has a little rustling noise when it's jostled, but it's a pretty quite rustle that doesn't bother anyone."
288315,2,Cats are tough to please,"Seems like a good idea in theory, but none of my cats are too into this product. It is quite large, but I think the lack of raised sides to rest their heads on is the reason this mat gets little attention. The product itself is as advertised. It does make a lot of crinkly noises, tho not sure if that is a good or a bad when it comes to cats. Might work better as a cushion for a big basket.Update: Several months in, the cats have grown to use this more often. Tried leaving it on the ground and it was ignored, but then I put it on a flat box, and it became much more popular. I think it is not cushiony enough for them, but it is better then my original estimation"
288346,2,Exactly what the title says--MAGIC!!!!,"I am a long time fan of Kristin Hannah's. I've read everything she's written and unlike some multi-published authors, Hannah just gets better and better with each book she writes. And MAGIC HOUR is no exception. The title says it all---this book is pure MAGIC!! I don't like to read reviews that give away the plot and so I'm not going to comment on that except to say that this story blew me away. It was everything I'd come to expect (and love) from a Hannah novel--true emotion, deep characters--but it was also a story line so unique and fresh, I could not put the book down. If you've never read Kristin Hannah give yourself a huge treat with Magic Hour. And, if you're a Hannah fan like me, I'm sure you've already pre-ordered the book!! Another winner from an extremely talented writer."
288351,2,all was good,"the book came on time, it was in good shape, just as advertised. no problems. I would suggest this provider to others!"
288372,2,Great for the Price,"I purchased this product back in march (now november). The only part i didnt like was the cover for the top of the phone was about a quarter inch too long so there was a tacky grey strip with of my phne showing. The Back cover is great, yea the paint scratched off after about 3 months, but its supposed to protect the phone not to make it look pretty. Ratcheting belt clip is great x-ept it starts to wear out after a few months. Also 1 of the 4 screws that atttaches the ratchet clip had no threads. Oh well. Just recently i dropped my phone and the side cracked and wouldnt hold to my phone. Very disappointed as i liked the look of the case.When i bought it the price at $4.90 . Very cheap and great buy. I am going to buy again becuase i liked it so much!"
288375,2,good for the price,This case is good for the price. This is the second one I purchased. AT&T wanted about $30.00 for the same type case. The first one lasted over a year and I wear it everyday.
288413,2,Best headphones yet.,"Sound quality is great, they stay in your ear, and they're not too expensive. Main issue is with the small rubber ring that binds the head phones together when you wrap them. You can slide it up and down to separate them for use. I feel this rubber (could be plastic) ring is binding upon the wires and has caused mine to split and fray. Aside from that no complaints. I believe the fraying has also dulled one head phones volume but again, could be avoided I believe."
288432,2,Good Enough,simple and easy to use. great for college students learning to check up on their vehicles without the help of parents.
288496,2,Station Wagon,"I am a HUGE Sara Groves fan. I do enjoy this CD, however, this is probably my least favorite-of all of them that I own (I think I have them ALL). The song containing the lyrics ""Let our weakness become our strength"" is my favorite on the disc."
288515,2,Easy But Not Perfect,"This transmitter is easy to use and works well in most circumstances. In my wife's car it's great, listening to my iPod on my boom-box it's great, but listening to my iPod in my car, it's only fair with too many instances of static beaking through the music to make it useable. It's probably got more to do with my car than the transmitter. I have had several devices and this one is the easiest to use. It's particularly good because it doesn't require any batteries."
288532,2,BEST CAMERA!,BEST INVESTMENT I HAVE EVER DONE. I LIKE THE FEATURES AND THE SCREEN IS AMAZING! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS CAMERA AND RECOMMEND THAT EVERYONE GETS IT.
288565,2,I FLEW FOR THE FUHRER,"just a beautiful true not hyped up story of a fighter pilots everyday life with clean well writen storys.How wounderful and full of energy knoke was in the early 40,s to the total destruction of his fighter wing in 45."
288581,2,A winner!,"Fried Green Tomatoes being one of my all-time favorite books - and Daisy Mae right up there too - I approached this book with caution - having been told ""it's not like her other ones"". Well, it isn't like her other ones but it's still a good read! I really enjoyed exploring the puzzle of Dena's life and all the characters were just great. Don't hesitate to read this one!"
288592,2,Custer's Fall: the Native American Side of the Story,"Almost a lifetime's work went into this book. It is always fascinating to read the other side of a story. It is easy to read and very moving. As Custer and all his men died, these are the actual witnesses to what took place. It follows the battle throughout the day, from sun-up to sun-down, the aftermath and the legend. A must-read for anyone interested in the Battle of the Little Bighorn."
288618,2,Tomtom Docking station,Misplaced the unit which came with our 910 Tomtom. This unit works as designed and intended. A must have if want to update and transfer information to your navigation system.
288640,2,Virtuoso Guitar Lives Up to Its Name,"Just as the CD title implies, this is a compilation of guitar performances, virtuosic in quality. If you have not yet acquired a taste for solo classical guitar, this collection may whet your appetite, and if even if you have, this is a worthwhile collection. It is good compositions, written by good composers, and played by good performers."
288718,2,Gets the job done,Worth the money. Pleased with the results! Head is not as long as an alternate product we found but it works well just the same.
288758,2,Perfect,"My only complaint about this movie is that Timothy Hutton did not win the Oscar for BEST ACTOR instead of supporting. He is in virtually every single scene and the movie is his. However, that being said, the movie is truly a masterpiece. The acting is flawless, the characters heart wrenching. Mary Tyler Moore is outstanding as the cold, controlling wife and mother. Her character frustrates you and fascinates you and you want so much for her and her son to ""connect."" The scene in the backyard where both of them are trying to talk, but neither listening to the other is extremely sad, but so true! Donald Sutherland is also excellent as the peacemaking father/husband, desparately trying to keep his family together. The Robert Redford film is a masterpiece. Definately deserved the Best Picture award."
288848,2,This is the best ABS workout,"I really enjoyed the Quickfix DVD, and was pleasantly surprised to find Tamilee's workout even better. This is an incredible DVD! My abs have never been worked so hard, and I have only done the first workout. There are a number of new, effective moves. The arms workout is also quite effective, and I haven't gotten to the ""buns"" segments yet but I am sure they'll be great also. I work out 5-6 times a week, and I save this video for my ""hard"" days."
288851,2,great overall workout,"I loved the weightlifting portions.The first bun workout was a little hard on my knees, and I found the second one, which was supposed to be harder, was actually easier to do. The abwork, especially the second one, is great! Go for it!"
288897,2,Love this series!,This product was delivered quickly and in good condition. I watched the whole thing almost immediately and can't wait for Season 4. Maggie Smith is delightful as always.
288939,2,American Voltaire,"Did we need a Gore Vidal reader? The author is something of a long-winded blowhard, commenting at length (and I mean LENGTH) on every topic imaginable. In that respect he is America's Voltaire, creating reams of comment and interpretation on politics, the arts, and religion and morals. It's hard to say where Vidal fits in the framework of 20th century criticism, as he is not a conventional leftist. Because of his iconoclasm, this collection can only inform the reader about Gore Vidal, not his times nor any intellectual or political movement. All that said, Vidal is a great essayist and a droll wit. This book is much too much for the casual reader -- stick to one of his many shorter collections instead -- but for a Vidal fan (or, say, a reader of ""The Nation"") this book is worth the time commitment."
288992,2,scared me,I watched this movie and it scared me - it was like watching a documentary about two men I know. If only I could save them like Jason Biggs was saved!
288999,2,Wonderful product,"I LOVE this make-up!!! I've used it for over 30 yrs...and now that it's not being sold in stores in the U.S....Thank goodness we can get it from Amazon.It's so easy and fast to apply..provides amazing coverage and is water based, so it lasts all day and is never greasy.FABULOUS PRODUCT !!!!!"
289045,2,"A warm and wonderful ""Winter Bossa"" album","It doesn't snow in Rio, but it does in a lot of other places in the world, which makes the idea of a warm and lovely ""Winter Bossa"" album a good idea. Lisa's 17th CD includes freshly updated bossa nova arrangements of classic Christmas carols, Brazilian holiday songs, and original material, sung in Portuguese and English. Highlights include ""Winter Wonderland"" (with arrangement by Steve Sacks), ""Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow"" (with the famous Brazilian clarinet player Paulo Moura adding his special touch), ""Caroling, Caroling,"" and ""Um Anjo Do Ceu."" This CD is one of the best Brazilian/Bossa Nova style Christmas albums out there... a lovely and original work."
289063,2,Forever Jung!,"This book is not an average introduction to Jung's psychology. It has pictures on most pages to better illustrate Jung's life and ideas. The writing style is informative as well as engaging, interesting, memorable, and at some points, humorous. It also explains Jung's split with Freud and some common misconceptions about Jung as a person."
289189,2,Absolutely Amazing!!!,I thought this was a great score for such a great movie. It intensified the scenes of the movie during battles and during serious scenes between characters. There is only one word to describe Josh Groban's voice and that is WOW! 'Remember' is the perfect song for this movie and Josh Groban was the perfect artist to sing it.
289229,2,safe for birds,"3 parakeets + 2 cockatiels + their seeds = too many moths!!! We picked this particular product as it is bird-safe. Works immediately - even as we were taking it out of the package and setting it up, moths were attracted to it. just set it up & leave it - nothing further to do."
289324,2,"Amazing acting, Perfect graphics","This movie was fantastic. It had brilliant writers and actors. The graphics are amazing. All around great movie. May be a bit scary for children, but my older boys enjoyed it - and recognized Thor. ;)"
289330,2,Captivating,I enjoyed this movie in theaters and watching it again at home. The storyline is great and Charlize Theron is captivating in her role.
289343,2,enjoyable entertainment,I enjoyed this action movie with beautiful graphics. It's a nice modern telling of the story. Anyone who likes fantasy movies would enjoy this film.
289406,2,Bracelet,This is a high quality piece of jewelry with easy-to-use clasp. It sparkles and is stunning on the wrist. The gift box it comes in is an added asset.
289462,2,Luthiel's Song,"Luthiel's Song: Dreams of the Ringed ValeThis is a refreshing new book, if you are into elves and adventure with true heroism, you'll love this story as much as I did.It gives you a fresh look at having a heart and doing what's right, the giving of yourself for family and new found friends.It keeps you interested from the very start and keeps you looking for more adventures at the end, it keeps you turning those pages.Dare to dream, you will be greatly rewarded reading this book.Robert Fanney is very talented and I believe you read a part of him here as well.Enjoy!!! I've bought more than one book to give out as gifts..."
289501,2,A Gift back to the children,"This book is such a gift. I have had the opportunity to hear a live presentation given by Gloria DeGaetano and was so moved by her passion, careful research and commitment to our future--the children of today. This book is such a gift. I have had the opportunity to hear a live presentation given by Gloria DeGaetano and was so moved by her passion, careful research and commitment to our future--the children of today. The book equals the passion I saw live and should be a perquisite for all Early Childhood teaching. The principles are timeless, the research spot-on and her passion is so inspiring.I found Gloria's work absolutely fascinating. It offered a perspective rarely researched. I cannot believe she is not better known. thepic.org is a great resource to follow her other work and is a testament of her endless commitment and passion for our children."
289514,2,Swell!,"Well, this is certainly a refreshing book. The tone is conversational, but the content is technical. However, the book is easy to use as a way to learn ASP. One thing that is a bit of a bother is the reliance on the .DLLs that ship with the book. I didn't have the time to fool around with installing examples and stuff that I can't see myself using or needing. But, you can just skip over these without losing understanding, if you want."
289523,2,Great series,"I really loved this series when it came out and unlike some older tv series it is not dated nor ""lame""."
289547,2,"Rubik's Cubes are tons of fun, make sure you buy NAME brand!","I'm 21 and I still love doing Rubik's Cubes. There's something very satisfying about it, especially once you get good enough to solve it without really thinking (I haven't done one in a few years, but my time now is 3min 50sec). The only warning is make sure you get a name brand one (like this one). The off brand cubes (puzzle cube, color cube, etc) don't turn anywhere near as easily as these and the stickers WILL fall off of them. I will never buy anything but a Rubik's brand again."
289620,2,Steamy and sexy,Loved loved loved this story. I was able to get my dark-hunter fix. S great read as always. I highly recommend
289656,2,"""Property of Chicago Cubs"" Youth T-Shirt",I purchased this T-shirt for my 9-yr old grandson for Christmas 2006. He is a really big fan of the Cubs and he absolutely loved this T-shirt!! It was a great buy for me! This was also the only site that I could find this exact T-shirt for him!
289681,2,Hit Repeat on the CD Player,"This two-disc album can play over and over and never get tiring. It's so hard to choose a Tingstad/Rumbel album to review, because I honestly love them all, but this one is especially good. Very relaxing. Perfect with a nice cup of tea on a cool summer evening..."
289705,2,Absorbing!,"I couln't put it down. I wish there were more books like it. Fasinating read, full of history. I learned alot about the horrors of William the Conquerer and how difficult life was in those days. I hope the author sends us another one!"
289711,2,Great for families with young kids,"In our language arts class we are studying tall tales, folk tales, fairy tales, ect. So we watched this movie. It was good for what we were studying but we don't think a bunch of 12 and 13 years olds would watch it just for fun. It's more for younger kids. The graphics were great (the tornado to name one) and we guess it held our attention for 3 class periods."
289784,2,A Thought-Provoking and Entertaining Novel,"I just finished reading this book (it took me two days) and I have to say that it was quite a joy and a change from Maalouf's other books. The writing style is, as usual, first rate and the difference lies in it being more creative and philosophical. While reading it one cannot help but wonder about the state of our world and the very likely scenarios set out here. This is even more important today with the seemingly limitless possibilities expected from genetic manipulation now that the human genome has been cracked. A very enlightening book that is a joy to read."
289889,2,Fantastic Book,"I've never cared enough to write a book review but I do on this one. I am a hobbyist cook with a collection of over 200 cookbooks. This one goes to the top of the heap. The recipes are superb, the pictures are beautiful and the message is compelling yet gently offered. I can't recommend this book highly enough."
289943,2,A Wonderfully Enjoyable Gem,"A good story, great acting, beautful sets, great costumes, special effects.. this movie has it all!It's a clever story. You sort of know how it will end, but it moves so quickly its always two steps ahead of your ideas on how it all ties up.This movie didn't shake up the box office. The Oscars will pass it by. The neglect is not deserved."
290063,2,A Christmas Tradition,"My brother and I grew up with this album. I am so excited to have found the CD version that I am ordering one for him as well. Great holiday memories! You will never sing ""I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa..."" the same again. This is the classic version. There is not one cut that I don't like. I can't wait to share this with my own children. Prior to this I had only found a few of the cuts on the Motown composite so that is all that my kids had heard. ""Up on the housetop.."" definately pops. The ballads are absolutely beautiful. This is definately among our ""Christmas Classics"" collection. We'll always love you Michael!"
290093,2,Dont worry the secrets of the Strega are safe still,"Unfortunatly he does not reveal any real secrets of Sicilian Strega. The secrets are still safe. Maybe one day the public will know, then again maybe not. Is this book still worth it? Oh yes. Raven Grimassi is one of a kind with the Italian tradition of Strega (Strega=Witchcraft) He made up his own tradition the Araidian tradition from an older tradition. Here in this book you will learn about the history of the witchcraft of Tuscany and Italy. He teaches about the diffrent aspect of the Goddess Diana. He also teaches about her consort Dianus. He gives out wonderful rituals and spells. He also gives a bit of info on the Lasa and Lare (the fairey folk) and how to make your own Lara and Lasa shrine. This is a good primer on Italian Witchcraft and wonderful for the beginners of the Craft as well. The auther does a wonderful job."
290129,2,I love this thing!,"This thing does everything they say, and it is much more well made than I expected. The back light is very bright, and the LCD is easy to see in all light conditions. The pivoting head has a very solid feel and is very useful. I am going to buy at least one more of these as I use it to monitor the auxiliary battery in my camper van.Buy one now!"
290150,2,"Living in America 12,000 years ago","This is a pretty good documentary about early man in america 12,000 years ago. As with any documentary dealing with pre-historyhard facts to go on are few and far between, but they do the best they can with what they have got. The theories presented aresometimes at odds with each other, but with so little hard evidence that is to be expected.The theories are presented without bias (well, without much bias anyway) so that you get a good picture of several veiwpoints.If you are looking for a lot of flashy cgi animations, you will not find a lot of it in this film. And what there is tends tobe of fairly low quality. But if you are looking for information, you will find a wealth of it.Would be excellent for use in a middle school or high school science class, or great for anyone who has an interest in pre-history."
290193,2,One of the best performed version in the music history,"The first time I listened Il Barbiere performed by Abaddo et al. it was in a double-cassette released by Deutsche Gramophon. I have been looking for this version on CD during several years because is one of the best performed Rossini's opera buffa. The color of the orchestra, tempi, and chorus are incredible. Special mention for Hermann Prey's performance, an excellent bariton. I recommend this classical for all opera fans."
290196,2,"Great Price, Traditional Favorite","Every morning between 5-6 AM, my dogs wake me for their morning snack, a Milk Bone biscuit. I have yet to find a better price on these familiar treats."
290206,2,Great shirt but get one size up from normal,"Great shirt but get one size larger than usual. I bought a medium, in soccer shirts usually a little loose, but this is tight on me. OK cause I'm in shape but it is more like a club shirt than a soccer shirt. Would buy Large if I was going to get another. Washing is delicate also. Make sure you read instructions before washing the first time."
290221,2,A Basket Case Too,"For a Hiaasen-novel this one is rather restrained and low-key. No wacko environmentalists, militiamen, ex-Governors, etc., even the most hateful fast-buck operator is not a resident of Florida but California. Hardcore Hiaasen fans probably will ask themselves if next he'll admit to actually liking Disney World ...Almost all characters are likeable, with the exception of some people on the fringes of (post?) MTV fame. The hero is a journalist with an obsession about death - probably a kind of workplace hazard for an obituary writer. But still, it damages one's social life if on learning someone's age the famous people who died at that particular age become the topic of conversation. Talking about a basket case ...Still, the book has the typical Hiaasen-touch: the evil in it get punished and the cynics who read it get to enjoy it ..."
290297,2,Greatest Hits CD,This is a great CD ! All the songs on it are enjoyable. I choose this CD to put in my car's CD player over and over again !
290510,2,Fabulous Machine!,"I do HEAVY INDIAN cooking! I use this machine to grind all sorts of wet chutneys and spice pastes. Cleaning is very easy, rinse container and blade assembly under the tap and use a wet paper towel to clean the underside of the lid that comes in contact with the ground mixture. My unit is slightly broken at the place where the chopper spindle goes in but the chopper goes on and on without any problems. I also use this to chop Onions and Spinach. You need to chop the onions into medium size pieces first and use the slow speed otherwise you will get mushy watery onion mash."
290651,2,Great little coffee maker,I am the only one in the household who drinks coffee. My little 4 cup maker was getting a little worn and dirty. At work I had a single cup press device that looked great but made the worst cup of coffee. I bought 2 of the Black and Decker Brew'n Go makers and am very happy with them. Easy to use and clean and makes a decent single cup of coffee.
290685,2,Use them in the right device.,"Look folks, if you have a Tilia Foodsaver device, you want Tilia bags. If your sealer has a full rubber gasket, you need bags with the waffle pattern for airflow.These bags are for devices that have the little hose in the middle of the vacuum chamber. This sucks the air out. Otherwise the bag closes flat and does not draw the air out."
290740,2,Just what we expected.,"I purchased this DVD: Fame, The Complete Seasons 1 & 2, as a Christmas Gift for my Daughter. She saw it in the store before Christmas. but when I went to get it they were out. I was excited to get it. My daughter was extremely excited to get it."
290742,2,Inexpensive and easy to install,"This print server was simple to install. The low price and network speed were major factors in the purchase but the ease of installation was a major benefit. I also like the fact that it is so small. I didn't have to find a location for the box, it just plugs into the back of the printer. Getting it operational on the network was no problem at all. I would definitely buy it again."
290768,2,A Pirate's Life Soundtrack,"This two-disc set is really quite a great example of pirate songs from the 19th century and more. Some artists are famous, others are not so much. All the songs are good, and the liner notes gives a little background on all the songs, which is nice. As a notice, there are a few very, very, Bawdy songs included, so if thinking of buying this for someone under 18, think again.Also, Johnny Depp is only a backer, not a singer or contributor, as many were claiming.Still excellent though."
290799,2,Great!,"Yummy, healthy fun snack. Great whether you eat them right out of the bag or put them in cereal, yogurt whatever. Highly recommend."
290883,2,Love My Brest Friend,I am absolutely in love with My Brest Friend pillow. No other product compares to it. I am exclusively breastfeeding (no bottles or pacifiers) and have been using it for 2 months so far and many more to come. I ordered an additional slipcover for it so I have an extra to put on when one needs washed. I love all the cute slipcover designs. They wash great and haven't faded. I even accidentally put one in the dryer and it didn't even shrink.
290906,2,Works with Vista,It was a little tricky to set up with Windows Vista (couldn't use the installation cd that came with the router) it had to be configured manually. I was able to set up and secure a wireless network in about 10 minutes. Have been using it for about 3 weeks with no problems at all.
290944,2,Star girl,I love this book it's so cute.I do not like the ending as much because it's not very happy but yet your curios on what is going to happen in the next book.
291029,2,The reviewers at Amazon are a great guide!,"I decided to read this novel based on the glowing reviews posted by other Amazon readers - and was left breathless by the scope of the universe that has been created by Vernor Vinge. He has created wonderous alien races that are described in rich detail, allowing the reader to look upon the world from a non-human perspective. Additionally, another reviewer commented on the incredible foresight Vinge had in utilizing communications throughout the universe using a meta-web...especially since this book was written in 1992, years before message boards became commonplace. Though some reviewers may say this is just space opera - I remember many people calling the Star Wars saga just a space opera. This book is absolutely worth reading - it will keep you riveted from cover to cover! After reading this novel, I will definitely have to read A Deepness in the Sky."
291032,2,"SF Fable Transcends ""Furry Friends""","VV has created a galaxy of vastness and detail. History and legend fathoms deep, worlds of complexity and myriad wonders, beings of fragility and incredible strength. But through all, the unbroken strand of the story - an adventure that jumps between big secrets and small dreams, the destruction of millions and the pain of one, the cosmic and the mundane. It is a timeless fable of fear and treachery, courage and friendship; a classic race against time (and other horrors) amid the lies and speculation that are the true voice of current events. The surprise is not in the turnings of the tale. For me, it was in the accepting of creatures too alien to be believed but too familiar to be dismissed. This was my introduction to VV and I initially balked at the children-and-animals aspect. Now, I think overcoming that was part of the experience. I clearly have some exploring to do."
291042,2,No need to pay so much to get this,"Currently this influential early country-rock CD is out of print and goes for pretty big bucks on the secondary market. However, before you pay thirty bucks or more for this, consider a much better option: There is a 5 CD collection available called ""Everly Brothers - Original Album Series"" that you can land for about twenty bucks (including shipping) where you will not only get ""Roots"", but you will also get 4 other original Everlys albums on CD. The others are ""Rock'n Soul"", ""It's Everly Time"", ""A Date with the Everly Brothers"", and ""Two Yanks in England"". They all come in cardboard sleeves that reproduce the original vinyl album graphics, and there is a shortage of credits - whatever info may have been included in an inner sleeve or insert is absent here, so if that matters to you, consider yourself forewarned. I haven't seen this set turn up here yet but it's not too hard to find elsewhere, and hopefully it will soon be available here too."
291067,2,Good Quality Grinder,Out of the box. No damage. No missing components.Setup was eazy.Strightened up the tip on a few screw drivers.Verible speed is a nice option.So far very please.
291089,2,finding buck mchenry by: erik cartmen,"The book finding buck mchenry was a great baseball book. In the book an older man named Mack Henry. At first he says that he was the great Buck Mchenry but after he lies about it to a television crew he confesses that he is not who he said he was. Mack Henry coach a three person three person team called the grandstand. the grandstand won almost every game that they played. i liked this book because everthing in the book had to do with baseball, and baseball is my favorite all around sport.erik cartmen"
291114,2,The Swarzbein Principle,"I was identified as a Type2 Diabetic 3.5 years ago at age 51. During that time I went to nutritionists and my health care team to gain advise and control of the diabetic condition. I followed all the advise and failed. Failure to the point that my medication reached the max before needing to switch to insulin.Along came Dr. Swarzbein with her ""common sense"" approach to the underlying problem, inappropriate insulin levels. Her report makes absolute sense. I began the process and within one week my morning blood count went from averaging 8.6 to averaging 5.4. (This is the Canadian counting system). After 7 weeks I have lost 12 lbs. and my blood count average is 5.1.If results are this dramatic for Diabetes, imagin the results for other chronic conditions.I highly recommend this common sense proven solution to maintaining good health.Mike Simmons Victoria B.C. Canada"
291118,2,Terrific Information and Photography,"I purchased this book for my 3 1/2 year old son who for some reason loves the subject matter of ancient Egypt. This book is very sturdy for his little fingers. It also has excellent information that is easy to understand. The pictures are fantastic and he pours over them in his room, at Church, at Grandmas, at restaurants...you get the point. The book also came with a fold out poster and a clip art disc. The disc doesn't have a lot of information on it, but it is a good starting point to foster future interest.I will purchase this book as a gift for anyone (any age) interested in starting research in Ancient Egypt.Also other titles in this series are just as outstanding."
291130,2,Pet Shop Of Horrors,Pet Shop Of Horors is one of the best anime i have seen in a long time. It`s dark fantasy meets horror movie. The only bad thing was it was to short. I can`t wait for vol.2
291148,2,an amazing book,The authors have clearly done a tremendous amount of work to bring us this incredible resource. For anyone who has gone on a yeast free diet this is a real find. Even a kitchen klutz like myself is able to follow the recipes. There is an interesting variety of recipes that will be ones you'll be able to make and will want to make again and again.
291165,2,The Best Work of Literary Fiction I've Ever Read,"Unlike just about any other author I've ever read, Helprin has an incredible ability to evoke imagery and emotion in the most beautifully, and often hilariously, written style. 'Winter's Tale' combines the grit and romance of turn-of-the-twentieth-century New York with his philosophy of human love and aspiration. This is a story born of democratic principles and the concept of the greater good: man can achieve great things, experience great loves, and be heroic to his fellow man, as long as his purpose is singular and his work ethic strong.This is a magical journey in which fantasical literary elements step in to poetically communicate the grandeur of Helprin's ideas--a device that works to enhance the otherwise realist prose. Helprin's masterpiece drives some of the same ideas of self-actualization and greatness as Rand's ""The Fountainhead"", without, thankfully, the preciousness or egoism."
291239,2,MAC SANTOKU,The knife is razor sharp and a delight to use for vegetables. the fittings for the handle are bit sloppy but not a critical problem. Al in all a nice peice of equipment for the price.
291278,2,Galway at his best,I must have almost all of James Galway's CD's but he is best playing the music from home.
291294,2,Goes well with the crock pot,"Daughter loves the receipes and uses it often. Would definitely recommend to anyone. Shipped quickly and very economic. Fantastic, definite must."
291330,2,Nice Book!,"Even though the title can be a little misleading....the years actually shown are 1989 through 1997, the book is still worth owning. I found it useful in ways other than looking for values, using it to ID the ""playline"" dolls that were unboxed years ago. The book is categorized nicely, easy to find what you're looking for. The photos are not perfect, but good enough to see every detail of the doll's faces in both a close-up as well as a full shot, showing original clothing.I recommend this book, it's a nice keepsake to remind us of Barbie's many, many transitions and looks over the years. Enjoy!"
291384,2,Great pre-reading practice!,I want more books just like this that allow my 3-4YO son to start thinking about how words are spelled and sounding out the letters.
291395,2,PERFECT VIDEO!!,I have tried quite a few Pilates Video for something to fill me in at home when I cant make class. This is a great Beg/ Int. one.It is a perfect mix of Toning & Pilates. The 50 min goes by fast working EVERYTHING or you can break it up into 10 min of what you want to concentrate on. It is new too so you don't feel like your doing an 80s jazzercise. Susan is sweet too. I'd highly recommend :)
291429,2,Spooky music for spooky people,"a fun 60's halloween cd.i dig the first cut ""COOLEST LITTLE MONSTER"".You will find yourself whistling these tunes as you walk past the graveyard at night."
291483,2,A breath of fresh air,What a hero l wish that I lived back then a happy ending. Great story line. Seems like you were there.
291557,2,All of America's greatest hits at a great price.,"This album has all of America's greatest hits. For a $5.00 download, it's a great price. I especially like the convenience of having an instant DVD."
291604,2,2 work great in parallel,I got 2 of these to piggyback into a handheld radio for Nascar races so all 5 in the family can hear broadcasts and they work great.
291672,2,A sober elegant performance,"It seems that lately, Glenn Gould has become some sort of de facto bench mark by which Bach keyboard performances are defined. This is a shame because Serkin's performance is an elegant performance. As a previous reviewer had stated, when you listen to Peter Serkin's performance you feel like you are listening to Bach, whereas Gould's performances sounds like you're listening to Glenn Gould. Frankly, I also appreciate the fact that the performer is not humming along in the background. I also appreciate that this he doesn't over embellish or over rubato his performances.Highly recommended along side Angela Hewitt's performance."
291679,2,The second generation of Sabbath,"Could there be a Black Sabbath after Ozzy was kicked out? Hell (and Heaven) yes! Thanks to Dio, this turned out to probably be one of the best post-Ozzy Sabbath Cd's ever. I still have the vinyl, and have fond memories of it - and still enjoy it to the max today. 20 years old? Amazing, but just one listen will convince anyone that this is far from 'nostalgic metal' - there is so much high energy on this CD it is hard to contain! From 'Neon Nights', 'Children of the Sea' and 'Die Young' to the intensity of 'Heaven and Hell', one can easily see the influence on the bands of the same genre today.This was Sabbath's 'turning point' at the time, and DIO brought an energy factor that was needed. It was sad to hear of Ozzy's departure, but Dio stepped in with a passion - and managed to pull Sabbath together to make one of their best EVER. Take 'Iron Man' for a walk down the lane of 'Heaven and Hell'!"
291688,2,A palm V clone and well done.,This unit is very well made and a joy to work with. The blue color is well received in a world of silver and black. You will not be disappointed if you buy one in any of the 3 colors available.
291706,2,Victimology 101,"WOW!!! I love this book. It has enlighten me as the studying victims of crimes and the roles they they have. The book arrived on time just as stated in the estimated time of arrival so I am very pleased with that, also. Thank you, Amazon."
291773,2,How unique is this?,"How many bands today could pull off this variation of music, let alone do them well? This dvd is worth the price just for the unique version of the kinks b-side ""Who'll be the next in line"", and a killer version of ""Your gonna miss me"".Yes, the 13'th floor elevators song. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
291824,2,"This is more than a ""self-help"" book.","I think you'll agree after reading only a few chapters that this is more than a ""self-help"" book. It delivers a clear & concise message about the core values of success as well as the more subtle civilities oftentimes forgotten. I have recommended & endorsed this book not only to new hires at our firm but also to more senior colleagues. Coach Jarvis and Mr. Peck should be commended for providing invaluable insight in a timely book that is delightful to read."
291859,2,This book is a great resource!,"This book, which emphasizes the unique characteristics of the gifted learner and the fact that such children are ""not a homogeneous population,"" presents a big challenge to parents looking for the right 'educational fit' for their children.But it is full of valuable information for those who seek to better understand gifted learners, intelligence testing, educational programs for gifted children and more. I highly recommend this book."
291870,2,Dizzy book fan!!,"I thought that the book ""Dizzy"" was so wonderful i loved the details they gave and i got really into the story. I thought that the book had drama you didnt know what would happened. The characters were Dizzy, Finn, Mouse, Leggit,Tess,Storm, and Pete. All characters were interesting i love every event in this book i recommend this book to everyone except the adults lol im not going to say more detail because i want everyone to read it themselves!"
291891,2,A Must see,This movie was made for those who didn't feel they had time to read the book. Yea it's Ok but it is just like any other movie based on a book. It only shows what it can but not the whole meaning. The book came into my vlife about 15 years ago. After I read it my life changed. It is a spiritual awareness book ( NOT RELIGIOUS) that is hidden is amungst the car chases and bullet dodging. In the thrill of the excitement you accidently stumble into self awareness.A must read for everyone breathing.Then watch the move.
291909,2,Great phone/answering machine,"Great system. Phone is clear and easy to use. Answering machine has a lot of nice features and easy to set up. Only drawback -- it does NOT come with a wall mount bracket. The package states it can be mounted on the wall, but doesn't inform you it has to be purchased separately."
291930,2,At the edge of the world!!,This is exciting reading..puts life into perspective and helps you appreciate what people with a passion can do!!What a shame they have to!!
291935,2,Great Bonnie Raitt Album,"GREEN LIGHT is a great Bonnie Raitt CD. The songs are all great, with a couple of exceptions. Among highlights are the Lowell George memorial ""River Of Dreams""; the rockers ""Willya Wontcha"" and ""I Can't Help Myself""; and the NRBQ cover ""Me And The Boys."" Raitt's belief that the youg Australian tourist jailed in Indonesia since 2005 for drug-smuggling was unjustly convicted makes GREEN LIGHT an essential purchase for both your ears AND your conscience."
291942,2,Great for active dogs,"I've used these for years and while I would normally consider them very durable, one of the neighbor kids whacked mine on the sidewalk and broke it... so don't use them for wacking sidewalks. Otherwise if you have an active dog that likes to play fetch these are invaluable. No more bending over to pick up wet sloppy tennis balls, and you can really give your dog a workout without much effort. The Chuckit ball that comes with the laucher is a little heavier than normal tennis balls, but you can use any tennis ball with the thrower to save money on replacements. Great product, and a lot of fun to use."
291962,2,Perfect,Lowepro makes good stuff and this lens case is good. It fits my Canon 18-55 lens perfectly and I can clip it to my holster case if I need to. Product came quickly thanks to Amazon. I recommend this case.
292075,2,Texicans - A Must Read,Reading the Texicans gave me a glimpse into an era of Texas history that I had never visited. I thoroughly enjoyed this historical novel and read with excitement and anticipation to what was next for the Stockman family. This book is a must read for anyone who enjoys historical periods in Texas history.
292107,2,Funniest Movie with plenty of spoofs,"I thought the movie was funny, especially all the scenes that were refering to the Fugitive. This movie shows us that it is good to take a break from a serious drama movie and see life in a different perspective."
292125,2,Are you the BASS God?,"He must be one of theBass god of 21th century.Like James jemarson,Booty Colins....etcThis dable album have two side.Like the titlle of this Album as you can see.The side of Yin means Shadow,dark...Anyway It featured instmental mainly of course Bass.The other side Yang means Daytime,light....anyway it Futured Songs.Yin have feels more fusion and smooth jazz.Yang is more Funky and straght to feel energys.I like both.It have diffrent flava each other.You can choose the feeling of the day,Party or RElax.It's intersting concept.And for funkeeters! Don't miss it Because Booty Colins is there.He helps Vic.great.So,Victor makes this album made by 16tracks portable recording system.It is hard to beliave easy.This sound is not so bad.You should try it."
292139,2,Good product (but keep in mind you need to purchase battery acid locally),"Great service. Shipped timely and well packed.These batteries are shipped dry, so keep in mind that you will need to purchase battery acid locally.(Or mix your own, not too difficult if you know chemistry)This particular battery needs 840 cubic centimetersFilled, the battery works great !"
292181,2,They do what they're supposed to,"While you may get the impression they are metal, these push-up bars are definitely plastic. That said, they are thick and sturdy enough so you shouldn't have to worry about breakage. They don't rotate like other advertised models and the grey plastic ""bar"" disconnects from the black plastic ""base"" if you pull hard enough. They shipped in a thin cardboard box and I saw some slight scuffing on the sides from the two pieces rubbing against each other during transit. The padding is suitable and the rubber feet on the base keep them from sliding on hardwood floors. There is nothing particularly remarkable about this set but if you're looking for an inexpensive way to save your wrists, then these will work."
292204,2,So smooth!,"I don't know about you other music lovers out there, but I loved this CD. Nu Flavor's so talented, and they come out with the best songs to show off that awesome talent. ""Heaven"" is so beautiful, it almost made me cry the first time I heard it. It's perfect for anybody who loves a good slow song. ""Havin' a Party"" is definitely the song for fun-lovers, and it's loaded with good singing. If I were you, I'd get off my butt and buy this single, cuz you won't regret it!"
292238,2,Whoa!!,"This albums rocks really hard. I can't think of anyone who progressed as much in their careers as Jeff Beck... You Had It Coming is by far my favorite album yet. Can't wait to see what Jeff has in store for us next! Great guitar here... just push play and let the music take you away.My favorites: Dirty Mind, Nadia, Loose Cannon, Suspension."
292285,2,A heck of a lot of fun!,"I've read some less-than-positive reviews on the internet about this final movie in Peter Sellers' career, and I have to respectfully disagree. I saw Fu Manchu when it originally hit theaters back in the 80's, and ever since it's become one of my favorites in the Sellers collection. It's just a LOT of fun to watch, and Peter's amazing talent for creating memorable characters is as evident here as inThe Pink Panther Franchiseand his other works.Don't judge this one too harshly - it's a movie that's meant for pure entertainment, not over-analysis. And it delivers! Heck, HELEN MIRREN in a Peter Sellers movie is just one of many reasons to check it out! I've been waiting years for this one to hit DVD, and now that it's at least available to rent on Amazon, maybe DVD isn't too far off!"
292319,2,High quality clock,The Westclox Piper Twin Bell wind-up alarm clock is very high quality. The entire housing is made of steel as are the knobs for winding and setting the time. It has been keeping time perfectly since we received it and the alarm bells work nicely too. Compared to other wind up clocks I have had the ticking sound is relatively quiet. I would highly recommend this clock and it is nicer than expected for the price.
292385,2,"A nice book, esp.","Like Einstein's Bridge, this is _totally_ a great book to read especially now that so much has changed since they were penned. In addition to as well-put-together story that has a lot of hard science in it, they have hackers using Macintosh computers and 14K baud modems, laptops called ""Portable Power PC"" and other wacky stuff. Best of all is this quote from the back of the book, from 1987: ""The Internet is a worldwide computer network that has been in very active use by the physics community for over a decade."" Isn't that cute?"
292386,2,Good coverage of Jbuilder's details.,"An excellent book! The authors have been able to not only cover the intricacies of JBuilder's features, but also the topics of software design and testing.This is not a beginner's book. You need to have a decent foundation of Java. Most of the examples start at a point where some foreknowledge of the subject is required. I liked this method of examples, it doesn't bog you down with the basics and gets to the meat of the topic. This saved time by not having to filter the relevant information out of the subject matter. If one needs to return to the basics, there is plenty of places to acquire this information.I was struggling with JBuilder's QueryResolver. With the information provided in this book I was able to complete my project. I'm looking forward to tackling the topics of applets and multitier environments."
292407,2,interesting period in history,A very interesting period in history. The love story was so-so but I liked the family intrigue and the setting.
292421,2,Try a Little Tenderness,"Come on now; all this mention of Gwyneth Paltrow is great. But the real show stopper is ""Try A Little Tenderness"", sung by Paul Giamatti. The duet is sensational !!! I have played the scene over and over a hundred times. I decided to buy the soundtrack just for that one song. Great performance."
292623,2,I liked it,"We read this for a book club. It is an interesting take on the 3 magi. It is just a story, not the literal story but an enjoyable read!"
292658,2,underappreciated gem by a rock n roll legend,"60's icon van morrison has a devoted ""cult"" following but is deserving of much more. most people know him by ""Gloria"" -- an early hit by his band Them -- and perhaps by ""Moondance,"" a makeout classic.the truth is that this prickly, deeply spiritual irish performer has been releasing great albums for 5 decades, a record that can be matched by very few of his peers.this album, which per above is not well known, is a very accessible, beautiful distillation of van's spiritual side. ""rave on"" and ""higher than the world"" are so transporting that they transcend music."
292726,2,Review of Model-assisted Survey sampling,"A great reference for survey sampling results. Derivations are mathematically rigorous and not for the faint of heart! I would not suggest this book for beginning grad students, as it is lacking somewhat in readability."
292868,2,Great clock,I had used a seiko alarm clock for twenty years and I wanted a new battery operated clock to replace it. I wanted it to be attractive and loud enough to pull me out of sound sleep. This clock fills all those needs and lights up too.Amazon had a large selection with the best prices.
292928,2,worth it,I used to buy this flat from Walmart thenn out of no where they no longer had this flat iron. This flat is very inexpensive and works miracles.
292982,2,excellent but very sensitive,"This is an excellent product which helped us get sleep at night however I just recently discovered how sensitive it is: I took my son out of the crib after his nap and waited to check the alarm as I periodically do, and it didn't go off. The fan in the baby's room was blowing on the dust ruffle on the crib and that was enough to trigger the sensor. Needless to say, I don't run the fan in there any more, you should check for any movement in your baby's room."
293053,2,Great dryer!,I really like this style however it is somewhat heavy for my taste. I used a similar one at a hotel....
293110,2,Outstanding,"I rarely get sucked into a book the way I did by this one. Congradulations Robert Ferrigno, this is an absulote page turner. Good character development with many twists and turns to the storyline. This book is exactly what a mystery should be, believable and hard core content.Thank you"
293126,2,A cultural history and almanac of the bear,"Grizzly Almanac (143-4... provides a cultural history and almanac of the bear, covering everything from hunting regulations and changing environments to bear encounters with humans. An excellent guide to the grizzly."
293169,2,Recommended by my vet,Work greats I was told by my vet that these are the best clippers on the market they work great cut my puppies nails 4 times in the past 3 months with them he's 10 months and a teddybear.
293196,2,Good on ya Pelton!,"Never mind what the stuffy wannabe literary critics have to say, Pelton writes about reality, and if you can't handle that, it is not a book for you. The people that have written negative reactions to the book obviously never left their home state or town for that matter. Pelton composes a fast, choppy, in your face yarn that will have you anxious to reach the next page...I highly recommend this one!"
293206,2,Beautiful! Words can't explain!,"This book is absalutely amazing. The story will fill you with emotion. The art will leave your jaw hanging down. This first in it's series book tell the enchanting stary of the Wolfriders. After reading this you will search until you can't search anymore for this out of print series. The first time I read ElfQuest it was true love. I have never betrayed my love. After reading it, neither will you! A definate MUST READ!"
293243,2,Wings - Seasons 1 & 2,"I was unable to find this dvd in any of the stores that I shop and was very happy when I found it available at Amazon.com.Wings was always one of my favorite series; at one point, I stopped watching Jeopardy so I could watch Wings in sydication.This dvd is contains many cleaver scripts and its loaded with laughs. I would say this is a must item for anyone's TV series collection."
293249,2,Awesome Hair Dryer,"I have been using the hair dryer for almost a month. It works great and has nice features like the cool air blast and the night light. To me, it is a lot quieter than my old dryer, and mounting it on the wall only took a few minutes. The night light is perfect for the size of bathroom it is in. If the motor lasts longer than 3 mos. (which is all my Jerdon dryer lasted,) this is an excellent product!!!!"
293259,2,It works,"I learned Hiragana first and even a ton of Kanji, but I just couldn't seem to learn Katakana. This book did the trick for me because it is laid out in a stuctured manner, you learn to write g}g (tomato) and then suddenly to and ma are in long term memory.A trick I learned for the similar kana (tsu, shi, so and n) was to draw a line through the center of the dots, this will help you start to see the pattern.Get this book!"
293277,2,The perfect iron!,This is the best iron I ever had. It works really well on all types of fabric. The cordless feature allows me to easily change hands and move freely. I always put it back on the charging dock and I never have to worry about it running out of battery.
293305,2,hit and miss,Several laugh out loud moments. Weingarten's newspaper column is funnier than this book. I love the column. The book isn't bad.If you truly want to sample Weingarten at his best read his column.
293349,2,excellent buy,"Just received this gate to see how it would work and it's perfect. I'm actually ordering another one for a different doorway. We have purchased the first one for the steps which are 39"" wide. This was the max opening listed for the gate, but it fits solid without any problem. The baby has even trying rattling the bars, but the gate still didn't move. Our older kids (ages 5 & 9)have no problem opening the gate by themselves and it swings shut again so we don't have to worry about it accidentally being left open. If you think you might need to move the gate frequently, then this is not the gate to use. It is held in place by pressure and would need to be reassembled each time you take it down. Love the gate and would recommend it to anyone who is tired of stepping over one all the time."
293356,2,A Big Fan of the Talented Ms. Harris,"As a huge Sookie fan, I was pleased to find I adore Roe Teagarten just as much! The shy librarian is quite the sleuth! I can't wait to read more!"
293369,2,the coolest!,"i loved this book. it was very interesting and funny. i recommend this book to EVERYONE! it was my first manga book, too."
293385,2,Successfully using these clippers on my Persian cat,"I bought these clippers to use on my Persian-Chinchilla cat. She is a long-haired beauty, but gets matted very easily. I tried taking her to a professional groomers to be groomed, but they ran after me in the parking lot right after I dropped her off because they said she was too frantic to sit still!So, I thought, ok, I will enlist my husband's help and trim her myself. We are SO not cat groomers by any means. We used a pretty short blade on her and it worked wonderfully. It took the two of us to hold her down but in the end she got a beautiful trim.I noticed the clippers get a little hot after awhile, only on the on/off button where you hold it with your hand. But in all fairness, I think we took an hour to trim our cat so maybe we overused the clippers past their normal timeframe. I'm happy we got these clippers and now our Persian cat can look trim all the time."
293437,2,A Great Little GMRS Radio,"The Midland G-18 (mine was actually labeled G-11) is a great GMRS radio. Key features include a removable antenna that allows the use of either an improved portable device antenna or a mobile antenna for improved range and easy to access scanning functions. It is easy to program and has a lot of flexibility with respect to battery power (rechargeable/alkaline and AA/AAA). A great radio for those wanting a GMRS radio with more ""commercial"" features. Urban range with 4 AAA batteries and a good aftermarket antenna is a solid 2 miles which is very good for this type of radio. They are now hard to find but worth it if you are looking for a small, lightweight GMRS that is cheaper that then the Mil-Spec commercial units (ICOM, Motorola, etc)."
293462,2,Gotta Love this Stuff!,"I got this book for X-mas, but then my bro stole it! So I decided to jump online and get it again. I read all the rags and keep up on the sites too, and this is a great addition to my MMA knowledge. I'm learning to fight too, and this book has been very inspirational for me. I especially like reading about the current fighters and how they came up. All the fight scenes are off the hook, and getting the scoop from the fighters themselves was especially motivating. Whenever I want to get pumped up to train, I watch some DVDs, and read the stories of guys like Tito and Barnett.Get this book, and for that matter, get every book you can, and watch as many fights as you can get your hands on. MMA is on the move, and speaking as part of the new generation of fans and fighters BRAWL IS TIGHT!"
293478,2,Black and white help,"Though I haven't finished, I have learned what I'm doing right, and what I need to do to become a better photographer. I am primarily digital, I find his writing about darkroom technique informative. It took me back to my days in the darkroom.I recommend this book for those who, like me, love black and white."
293654,2,Quality product!,Item shipped on time in sturdy and clean packaging. Fantastic price! Ordering multiple boxes at one time is convenient and time saving. Beats driving to the local storees all the time where this item is sometimes not available..
293670,2,Great twisty plot,"I must say this was certainly better than I expected. Most of us are used to twists and turns, but the Coffin Dancer threw me; time and time again. It's a very good read."
293689,2,"Great, innovative and hardhitting dark metal!","Ah, what can I say??? MANES is a one of a kind band, great structure and a VERY raw vocal. slow to mid to fastpaced metal in the vein of Limbonic Art and Thorns etc, only better. This is great! I urge you to get this!!!"
293698,2,Adding Zip to Your Writing Style,"Generations of students and writers relied on the classic, Elements of Style by E.B. White and Wiliam Strunk Jr. Elements of Style is a slim book that advises writers on how to write more clearly. Now it has a challenger in Arthur Plotnik's Spunk & Bite. Of course, the title is a play on Strunk and White.Plotnik points out that today's readers have shorter attention spans and need more ""spunk and bite"" to grab their attention. He provides plenty of examples of how to add color, expand your vocabulary and put some zip in your writing.I'm recommending this to all my writer friends. Put it on your shelf next to Elements of Style. Don't toss that classic yet."
293800,2,Buying my second Maxtor 60 GB HD,"I guess the best thing I can say for this hard drive, and why I'm coming back to buy a second (back-up) drive, is that I've never really noticed my first one. It serves as my ""DATA"" drive of a 2-drive configuration. Now I want a back-up drive for DATA, so I'm getting another, identical version. What more can I say?-- Terry"
293809,2,Every Texan should know these songs,"We printed out ""I've been everywhere"" and challenged the grandkids with a $100 bill to learn it. They're up to about $3.00 but still sticking with it. Best album!!!"
293935,2,Actually Cuts Pennies!!!,I bought the scissors for EMS (AEMT). I wanted something small which would easily fit in my pocket. I have tested the scissors on pennies and they do indeed cut through them. These are always the first scissors I reach for in the ER and in the field.
293943,2,super duper,"this is a really good cd. it has all punk-ska bands with half from japan and half from the usa. almost all of the songs are good but japanese bands just have a knack for signing nicer melodies than the american bands. my favorite songs are the ones by snail ramp, potshot, and young punch."
293974,2,Not Grandma's but still good,"My wife's grandmother used to make homemade gooseberry jam. This is good jam, but of course, it's not grandma's"
293997,2,4-Stars,"The storytelling and attention to historic detail are fantastic, but not as much baseball as his first book. I would still recommend this book to all of those who have read his first book."
294014,2,decent helmet at this price range,Helmet is 304 grams. Not the lightest but at this price is a good every day use bike helmet. One major complaint is that the ear strap twists below the ears. It does not rest flush to the face and is annoying. No way to fix this problem. Poor design. Also no reflector stickers on the helmet or straps like other helmets in this price range. Mine arrive with some dents and scratches. Also the straps do take some adjusting to make it fit right.
294059,2,Had Homelite Chainsaw for 5 years Now,"I have had a 16"" Ranger for over 5 years and am pleased with the performance. We had a destructive winter storm here in NY and I needed to cut up trees and tree limbs that had fallen. I put a new chain on as the old one was dull (and I didn't want to spend the time sharpening. The chainsaw worked fine, strong and easy starting. I agree with the comments about chain oil usage. I bought a less viscous oil at Home Depot than I had been using and found that I was really going through the oil (Echo). This is OK as it protects better. My unit was purchased new and came with sharpening files (never used!), tool and case. This is good for medium duty. I would purchase again."
294082,2,Great book,Great snapshot of WWII Germany's intelligence collection capabilities. Showcases in just a few examples how they fused all their collection efforts for greater capability. Reads like a verbal documentary. A little hard to follow at times due to the writing style but has some excellent story vignettes.
294103,2,A childrens book that is a poetic feast for all ages.,"Pass It On is a beautiful picture book of some of BlackAmerica's best poems for children. Here the reader will find examplesof the wonderful works of Langston Hughes, Nikki Giovanni, Countee Cullen, and about thirteen others. From the Harlem Rennaisance to the present day lovely thought-provoking poems are presented to the American child. The illustrations are muted but descriptive renderings that are melded together to present a picture of black life at its best."
294104,2,Mask,"The poems in Mask are exquisite. Many of the poems make a deep contribution to the interpretation of Charlotte Salomon--Berlin-born artist who perished at Auschwitz--her struggles and her transcendent ability to turn those struggles into art. Elana Wolff's poems remind me of the poems of Jane Kenyon, one of my favourite poets on earth, in their conciseness, and also in the translucent way they portray love--even in its darkest context."
294152,2,Great for keeping photos in order,"I have many of these because is the best way to keep my photos organized, and it does not need an special folder or album, a regular 3 ring folder is enough."
294167,2,ext speaker,"I'm using this cable for another speaker off my fender comboacroos the room. Wasn't sure if I wanted another speaker so far away,glad I tried it. This cable seems fine although I may switch to a monster later on. Cheapest price on 12 gauge and still a usable short length. Ilooked on M.F. z sound G.C. and definately the cheapest. Not the best or even mid I'm sure but better quality than say live wire. It definately meets the need and chunky ol'12 guage for cheap is nice."
294208,2,Wisdom and Inspiration,"These lessons are wise, memorable and important. They have made a difference in my life. The book design is lovely and the planning pages and accompying messages and simple actions are terrific. Buy it for yourself but I predict you will soon be ordering copies for your friends, family and colleagues."
294247,2,good,"works well. i use 88.7 fm. uhh seems to always have a constant low volume static in the background but not much you can do about that. other than that, pretty crisp fm transmitter, works good."
294267,2,Genuinely enjoyable,"What's so remarkable about this book is that in 93/94, Coupland managed to write, with such accuracy and detail, about a subculture which the mainstream caught onto only about a year and a half ago. Coupland manages to capture the culture and mood of techgeeks so painfully accurately, that I ended up disliking the characters in the exact way and for the exact reasons I dislike most of linux-shirt wearing, annoying, all-i-know-are-computers, techgeeks I know ""in real life"". While I disliked the characters, it was dislike stemming from the fact that they were so well done. And just like the characters, the rest of the story is extremely well written. Completely unpretentious, extremely readable, Coupland writes like a friend relaying an anecdote to you, rather than an author trying to show off his new thesaurus."
294409,2,dewalt 18 volt cordless router,this is very handy for odds jobs cut this here cut this there is very handy for the do it all over all great.
294479,2,I still remember,"I havent seen this movie in years but even years later I remember it and look for it in blockbuster even though I usually cant find it. If it wasnt so good I wouldnt remember, sure its a little old but it adds to the charm. It shows that those who are determined can get what they try for, an inspiring movie for any person."
294506,2,great buy!,"My girls LOVE Oswald, so this was great for us. And as always Amazon shipped it out and we got within days of ordering it."
294515,2,Great for TWINS,Great stroller for TWINS! I bought the stroller in blue and my wife and I love it!!!Pros-- easy to assemble- sturdy and solid stroller- simple to use- drives easily and can use one hand to guide- the only stroller that I have found that will accomodate 2 infant car seatsCons-- large and will not store in my Tahoe with the 3rd row in place. Will fit just fine with 2nd row up or one seat of the 3rd row and store it on the side of the single 3rd row seat.Awesome stroller for TWINS!
294535,2,perfect,just needed something to help block the sun while I sleep and this works perfectly. Fits snuggly around the face. Seller shipped the day I ordered it and it arrived like three days later in perfect condition.
294554,2,Sturdy & purdy!,"Easy to adjust, good fit, secure... Love it! Now if I could just find pink chainsaw safety chaps.... It would be perfect!"
294611,2,It was entertaining,"It was entertaining. Not the most hilarious movie I've ever seen, but I enjoyed it - which surprised me. I really like Vince Vaughn and Kevin James...."
294614,2,Wow!,"This EP is one of the smoothest, groovinest, positive things I've ever heard. The rap is unmatched and doesn't need to boast. Full of positive lyrcis - no gangsta and ""ho"" lyrics. What it does have is speed, groove, tight flows and great mixing to back it all up. Yes, there is hope for hip hip."
294634,2,Magformer Fun,"Great toy for any age - babies through senior citizens. There are no sharp corners, very colorful, and require imagination. I played with them with my 3 year old grandson and he loved putting them together."
294688,2,Took a little listening to enjoy,"When I first listened to this disc, I was put off by its lack of melody. ""Nefertiti"" has a repeating motif (repeating too often, actually), and ""Masqualero"" has a melody. The rest seems like open jamming on a chord pattern.With Miles, Wayne Shorter, and Herbie Hancock, repeated listening to the playing and soloing pulls you in, and every note eventually becomes memorable. It gets to the point where you wouldn't want to change a note.I wasn't familiar with the songs before I got this disc, a veteran Davi listener may have a different reaction."
294740,2,It's Triple the Reading Pleasure,"I read this book when it first came out some time back. It's one of the few books that I can't seem to be able to keep out of my mind. It's so unique in the plot and story line, that I put it up there with the Uplift Wars saga. An excellent book. Read it, if you can find it. Get it if you can."
294749,2,good quality but not tactical,"This thing is a good product but for me I would like to be able to spin the rifle from front to back quickly and vice-versa. You have to take all the weight off the strap or it will grip your gear and won't slide around your body like the smooth all-nylon type. There are rubber-like threads woven down the entire length of the sling. That is the Grey Striping seen in the picture. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't consider sending mine back and installed it on my Hunting Rifle where I don't need to make quick changes. Heavy duty construction all around and feels like it should last a long time. Definitely recommend for anyone not switching front to back a lot."
294805,2,THE END IS NEAR! BE PREPARED!,"Ahem. Has anyone noticed that one of the one-star reviews for this book burns Lemony Snicket and William Shakespeare at the same time? If I was you, L.S., be honored! ""Oh, gee, you're categorizing me in the same place as one of the most revered and adored authors of all time?!! I think I'll take that as a compliment!"" This book is the second best in the series so far, after The Slippery Slope."
294849,2,GREAT!..a little long overdue too !,Well..all i would like to say is ..anyone who have ever listened to LOOSE ENDS.. would really love this collection...some of their very best. NO DOUBT!....Enjoy!!!
294893,2,Curved Towel Bar with Shelf,"I have three kids and a set of two single towel rods just don't cut it. I seen this and I thought it would be perfect...and it is! I bought two so now I can hang six towels in the bathroom. The curve made it look so stylish, and useful. The extra shelving on the top is great for extra guest towel. I loved it!!"
294905,2,A 2-yeaold vulcano,"My 2 yearold son wants to watch this video twice a day - we are NO TV- o videofreaks, but this is vey wonderful to watch and practice together. Since I do yoga myself I was very happy to find this video to be able to introduce yoga for my son. I find it inspiring too as a teacher and will try this on a group of 4-yearolds."
294916,2,Great instruction,I really have come to rely on this book to quickly and easily apply basic techniques to the Canon EOS 40D. My camera has ALOT of ability and can become overwhelming. This book has been a Godsend to keep things simple and in perspective while learning the camera.
294991,2,Great Classic,I enjoyed the service and the movie. I plan to show it in my high school classes next week a great movie
295094,2,"""This is a book about money."" (quote from the preface)","It is indeed! It is a book about the unbelievable efforts made to transport gold and silver from New Spain and Peru to Spain between the 15th and 18th century, how these precious metals initiated worldwide commerce, about the rise and fall of the Spanish/ Habsburg empire and how it helped European countries to become economic and political world powers. Waltons book moves through three centuries of world history in an appropriate pace, without leaving out interesting details. It simply is a fascinating book!"
295122,2,Nice Bedroom set,"This compact TV from RCA is perfect for the bedroom where typically you don't want a big huge TV overpowering the overall design and making your bedroom look like a drive-in movie.Each set includes a NITEglo Backlit Remote, so you can easily locate the buttons on the remote, even with the lights off. Each also features a quick and easy-to-program Sleep Timer Button. So when you're fast asleep, so is your TV."
295134,2,I Can Knit Socks Now!!!!,"I'm working on the Starter Stockinette sock at the moment and it took me a while to figure out the heel turn and the gusset, but once the light bulb went off in my brain, it's been a breeze!! I really like how the instructions are laid out with each pattern, so that you know what to do next!! I've never knitted socks before, and I can't really tell you why I want to now, but for some reason I was intrigued by the process, and now I can do it!!! I Definitely recommend this book to beginner-intermediate knitters."
295194,2,An old classic,"Cheech and Chong are ... well ... Cheech and Chong. I have always disliked the Roxy scene, but the balance is a good romp. ""It's excellent, of course. We loved it! We always have!"" - my husband"
295357,2,"Beautiful, eclectic; Elvis keeps fans guessing","I had a hard time tracking down this recording because I couldn't remember the title at first. I had heard about it on NPR, and I was fascinated to hear yet another new venture by Elvis Costello. This CD definitely grows on you. The music is haunting, and Elvis's vocals are phenomenal. I picked this one up because I think EC is a great musician, and I was pleasantly surprised to learn about another talented performer, John Harle. I definitely recommend this one for hard-core EC fans. As always with his music, be prepared to have your preconceived notions of music challenged. The music has an eerie, almost ethereal quality. It reminds me a lot of Joe Jackson's Night Music--the combination of musical instruments is different, but the overall mood is very similar."
295443,2,Poor Customer Service,The product itself is ok. I had a problem with an order and the company was completely unresponsive. They didn't return phone calls or emails.As long as everything you order is ok then fine. If you have an issue then don't depend on Bayou Classic fixing it. This is a ma and pop outfit and they don't have the resources to handle the volume of business they are doing.Buyer beware!
295494,2,Must reading for everyone who works!,"Character is a quality issue, too. Integral to every business process, human nature is the greatest shaping force of corporate performance. Insightful lessons of this book promotes a deeper understanding of human nature; and teaches how to positively contribute toward perfecting total organizational quality.Audience:* Working Personnel of all levels, Managers, Union Leaders* Self-Help: Individual and Organizational TrainingReading Advantanges:* Author's 28 years includes Saturn Corps. Launch Team* Exceptional insight into the physical, mental and spiritual aspects of human, organizational character development* Challenges the hot issues of teamwork, diversities of race, gender, position and empowerment"
295582,2,Cool,i thought this book was brill i have not read a book were the characters write the book pual zindel is a great author and this book was great. it is about a oldish man called mr pignati and 2 16-17 year olds who go to visit him every day various events happen and mr pignati ends up dead great book i recommend it to any one who is mature not for young people
295625,2,Suitable for kids at age 5-7 years old,This Book is suitable for Christmas. It explains step-by-step project and kids will love it. It's not too difficult to make it. Kids at age 5-7 years old will love it.
295676,2,Good recycled balls,These are very good balls at a reasonable price. Would buy again. Why buy new ones if you lose them.
295725,2,2001 Emmy nominee,"I love this CD especially the title song, Soldier Of The Cross.Ricky Skaggs Emmy nomination is richly deserved."
295737,2,it was Good,"i liked the book it was good but not as i expected, i needed more explanation before buying the book, like how the book will look like from the inside ,anyhow in general its goodThank you Amazon"
295793,2,Better than expected,Funnier than I thought it would be. Some excellent performances - a fun way to spend a couple of hours.
295798,2,Rock Of Ages,Very different from the Broadway version but good. Tom Cruise does an excellent job. I was surprised!I was not impressed with Alec Baldwin.
295799,2,Love this movie,Grest movie and great price!! I got this for a Christmas gift for a family member and it is watched over and over again!! Def a fav!!
295806,2,"Sexy Buns, in a flash!","The description says...""Get Sexy Buns fast""! They aren't kidding! You should get it fast, we did, and it works. It's a great workout and Leisa makes it fun. Highly recommended!"
295812,2,great resource! some repeated material,It's a great resource for teachers who want to liven up a grammar lesson and give students an opportunity to have fun while practicing what they've learned. It does have a lot of repeated game ideas. The ideas are just used in different sections of the book for different grammar forms. But it cuts down a lot on prep. time.
295825,2,Wonderful little torch -- shouldn't have been discontinued!,"I am a bench jeweler and I originally bought this torch when I ran out of acetylene one weekend for my silversmith torch. Over the years since that first purchase, I have used it extensively and it it a surprisingly good torch for close work. I have never tried the other tips, but the torch tip has never stopped working. In fact, I wore out the regulator on the first torch after around three years of use, and consequently bought a second torch.My only complaint is that Bernzomatic has indeed stopped making these. I called the company however, and they said that quite a few people had called in to complain about the discontinuation. I hope that they decide to re-release it, perhaps taking into account the lack of replacement tips. If you like the torch, give the company a call and let them know."
295956,2,2 Year Old Loves It,We bought this for my 2 year old son and 1 year old daughter for Christmas. They love it! They weren't really bothered with the rest of their gifts after seeing this. It was easy to put together. All of the doors on ours fit fine. The sound the grill makes is a little annoying. Overall we are very pleased. All my son wants to do is make hotdogs.
295958,2,*Drool*,This game is fantastic. I loved the balanced play between the three warriors. The multiple and unique views for each added to the atmosphere which is equally amazing. The best is perhaps some of the random spawning and the need to listen to sounds. I've never needed to use sounds to locate where an enemy was coming from in a FPS and it made all the difference. I still remember the shake i got when i heard the first face-hugger Chittering towards me and couldn't see it till it started humping my face. A must-have.
295976,2,Love Finds A Home,Very good movie. Loved the whole series. I've told all my friends and family about it. My husband even likes them.
296073,2,Quick & easy,"After spending good money to have watch bands fitted for about seven to ten dollars a trip, not to mention the trip itself, just to get the right size, this gadget works fine."
296154,2,decent product,"had it a month, it still works, and does what it's supposed to do. doesn't hold quite a gigabyte though"
296171,2,The book is a great help in getting ideas protected.,Descriptions of what can be protected and the mechanisms for filing the proper documents is a great help. The book gives lots of examples and is clearly written for anyone wishing to protect their ideas.
296173,2,Perfect for a beginner,"I'm about as beginner as they come, both to Pilates and to exercise. This set is exactly what I was looking for. The inflexible dvd is for people who are really inflexible. If you can almost touch your toes, you are flexible. It's been great for me. The modifications and the bonus section of yoga (also designed for really inflexible people), are letting me benefit from the exercise. After a few weeks working with the inflexible dvd, I tried a couple routines in the easiest section of the weight loss one. I could do them and like them too. If you don't know pilates, take the time to watch the track that teaches you the poses for each level. The sculpt and tone dvd is really different. I like the legs and glutes routines and as a total newbie I feel it when I'm done."
296200,2,good mix,"Good set of dvds, they bust out a couple of tunes we dont hear often. Cant you here me knockin and stray cat blues is nice, also cool to have a ""club"" show involved, though its a large crowd. The behind the scenes dvd where mick is working out with a personal trainer and the band seems nervous before the first show is interesting. Overall very good."
296256,2,"Enjoyable, but could use more inn content","This is a lovely little book, with beautiful illustrations and recipes. I very much enjoyed the descriptions of renovating and running the inn and life on the island ... but the author kept going off on tangents about the evils of war, the government, etc!"
296303,2,I Saw the Lord: A Wake-Up your Heart,Anne Graham-Lotz have done it again. I enjoy all of her books. They are truly spirit filled.
296322,2,Wore out the first one!,"I purchased my first Cuisinart convection toaster oven almost 3 years ago, and have used it daily not only for toast, but also for broiling, baking and reheating, especially when we lived for over one year in a rented house that had an oven from hell. During those 15 months I relied on my toaster oven for everything except baking large items. I still find that I turn to it first since it works fast and is ideal for small dishes and thus reduces use of my large oven.I had hoped it would last longer, but feel that I probably just wore it out.My only reservations regarding the oven is that it's a bit difficult to clean and I wish the oven rack had a stop on it so that it would not pull out too far when removing a hot dish.I would definitely recommend this product."
296325,2,Awesome strategy game!,I had gotten this game a few years ago as a present. I lost it and came back to it. It is awesome. It came in perfect condition and it's very good for strategy.
296347,2,Secretariat,"I had heard this film was good. Though I admit that I am a sucker for horse stories, I was nevertheless surprised at how good it is. Diane Lane is superb and the story is compelling. I do not know how historically accurate it is--and I mean just that, I don't know--but it is very well told. It certainly drew me in. I cannot think of a single scene that was not well done. I would recommend this film to anyone."
296419,2,Great except....,Notice that one speaker has no grill over it. Not a good idea. Yes it will get broken somehow. Great sounding speaker. Top quality.
296421,2,Engrossing,"This is a well written & researched book and puts ""faces"" to those involved on both sides. From the moment Enola takes off, the book is very hard to put down. The book doesn't portray the bomb in a bad light, or a good light for that matter, it just presents the facts for the reader to gain some insight to this amazing part of history. More details on Nagasaki at the end of the book would of been great."
296434,2,Going...going...,"...GONE!!! Another out of the park homerun for DLR. If there is one person who can cover a song and make it better than the original, it's Diamond David Lee Roth. He's done it before and he continues to do it again. If you don't like this CD after listening to it...play it again...you WILL love it!!!Go ahead...give my theory a try...then see what happens!!!"
296463,2,Beautiful coffee table cookbook,The photography is lovely and the recipes are very interesting. It is NOT the usual Mexican food. Quite exotic. It makes a great gift for a cook. I liked it so much I bought one for myself too. I understand this is a part of a series.
296494,2,Great Book Along With Edwin Bearss' Maps,"Many details in book which should be combined with""First Manassas Battlefield Map Study"" by Edwin C Bearsson sale at Amazon for $30 (map study book and maps).Combine the two and you've got a real winner!"
296502,2,"Solid rock music,..finally!","Remember Nirvana and the Pixies? Remember garage rock at its finest? Remember what good rock sounds like? Well, if not, DEFINITELY pick up The MURDOCKS debut EP. I heard this four track CD in October and it blew me away. A singer that can actually sing, inventive bass work, and rocking drums never go out of style. This band is amazing and if you're tired of radio and rock bands that reek of Linkin Park's table scraps, get this CD and hear this band before they're totally gi-normous."
296530,2,Great pot.,"I've only had this pot for a short time, but it's beautiful and large enough to accommodate large batches of soup, stock, curries, pasta sauce etc... Unlike many cheaper stockpots, this one feels very solid--not thin or flimsy--and the handles at the side of the pot make it easy to transport in spite of its large size."
296541,2,another stellar effort,"although their 2nd album remains my favourite to date, this is another fantastic effort by the Aussie trio. Coming off a tour opening for Dylan, The Waifs are *this close* to becoming a name in the US. Have a listen, take a chance - you won't be disappointed!"
296545,2,Absolutely Awesome!!,"I just LOVE this pan!! I had been looking for a pan of this size for some time; when I found it, I was so excited. I never thought I'd be this excited for a silly pan, it's just wonderful. I love the fact that I can go from stove top to oven. I'm able to prepare large quanities with ease. When it comes to cooking, if you're as passionate about it as I am, it's very important to have the correct tools. I recommend this product for everyone!!"
296556,2,Love shiney pans,The ten piece set of Cuisinart pans arrived with shine and bright. Love that look...they work very well...a little stick here and there but the shine is gone...darn. Do I need to scrub a little harder...they are worth it. The weight of the pans seems to be just right...not too heavy but not light.
296662,2,Earth Science Praxis,This book is broken down into easy sections that include reviews to help the reader practice. i also loved the end of chapter exams. I used this book to help prepare for the Praxis Earth and Space Science exam.
296673,2,great controller!,All i have to say this is a great product... hasnt given me any problems.. so a must buy for any playstation 2 owner...
296683,2,Just great,"I bought a couple of these about a year ago and as far as I'm concerned, they're pretty much ideal.I though it was a good idea to buy a set of four duracel rechargable batteries with a charger for my controllers... but they really don't eat up batteries very fast anyway."
296685,2,Works really well indoors in the SF East Bay!,"Just picked this up. We live in a townhouse near Pt. Richmond, CA. Our hdtv is downstairs and I put this upstairs. The manual is horrible, but the reception came in better than any of the antennas I have experimented with thus far. It did require a diy reflector to pull in maximum stations, but that was easy. Also, some repositioning is occasionally necessary to lock in KGO, but I was able to get it, many do not. I am confident I will find the sweet spot in the house. Yea! No roof climing. Buy this if you can find it cheap."
296718,2,regarding first review,The first review with one star refers to the FIRST edition of this series which was a different author. The second edition here HAS been redone just as the writer correctly suggested.
296741,2,song translations?,"This is a great CD, but the downside is that I can't understand a lot of the songs. Does anyone know where I can find translations to these songs, particularly ""mwari sigaramahoro""?"
296762,2,Eye opening!,Few people realize how our monetary system truly works - and this is probably intentional. You owe it to yourself to understand the game and this film is a great start. Highly recommended!
296810,2,"nice looking, good quality","i should have gotten the 9.5'' one. i'm about 5' 7"" & i got this 8 footer & it's too short for me. it hits my head & i trip on it. i have to swing my arms real wide to use it. i am returning it & using a cheap plastic one i picked up at 5 below. but if you are looking for a nice quality/pretty jump rope this one is good. much nicer looking than those plastic ones. it does get all bent up from being rubberbanded during the shipping so i suggest laying it over something when you first open it up to help straighten it out."
296818,2,Masters of Science Fiction,"Highly recommend this series for anyone who loves sci-fi, suspense, thought-provoking shows. Similar to Twilight Zone, Outer Limits, great actors, interesting story lines. Well done."
296842,2,great fit and very warm,"For the price, this is a great jacket. It keeps you very warm, and fits great (not too big or small). Because it is down, I am able to wear it under another jacket for extra body warmth. Good buy (bought it for special Friday Sale price)"
296849,2,"Title of this game says it all-""UNREAL""","I usually don't buy shooter games of this type, but with the 5.5 GB install, I couldn't help but wonder what it would be like. And I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED!!This is the BEST game I have EVER played! The graphics are simply ""UNREAL."" The best graphics I've ever seen in any PC-Game.Game play is very smooth, and I am impressed by the amount of levels the player can play through, which always gets better and better, crystal clear graphics that are always sharp no matter how far in you zoom, and the amount of extras that's on the second DVD; which shows how to create your own levels, vehicles, etc. All of it is step-by-step video tutorials; There's nothing this game lacks!To sum it up, this is simply AMAZING! I never get tired of playing, and it is very ADDICTIVE!To anyone who hasn't played Unreal Tournament, or don't generally buy shooter games of this type, BUY THIS GAME NOW; You won't be disappointed!"
296970,2,IT'S GREAT!!!!!!!!!!,I LUV IT!!!!!! Isn't it GREAT that Rachel killed that dumb kid and still get away with it? It's funny too. Hurrah for the Animorps. There should always be this type of books around They'll rule forever!!!!!
297123,2,Damages-A must read!,"B.K. Bazhe is an eloquent writer, whose style reveals the heart of an artist and a poet.Damages in an amazing story, that is, at times, raw, gritty, painful and yet, hauntingly beautiful.Its an epic tale, told with skill, a unique style and most importantly, soul.I recommend this book to anyone seeking a story that will linger, long after the last page is read."
297128,2,Dr.Drew is the best!,"I love Dr.Drew,I listin to him everynight on LL.I think he is,as AC would put it ""A Very,Very,Very,Very,Very,Very,EXTREAMLY passionet man!"".Dr.Drew,I love you.You are the the 4 s'es of greatnessss,Sweet,Sensitive,Smart and Sexy!Your book is wonderful!Don't let the ""bad"" reviews get you down.I think there are more people that love your book,than don't,and the ones who don't,don't know what there talking about.Your doing the Lords work,keep it up!I wish you nothing but the best,Hayley The LL Fanatic"
297159,2,Excellent for skin,"This is not meant to be a foundation... but it you use it on your face and then put foundation only where blemishes are or even out skin tones, it is wonderful. I am 66 and have great face skin because of this. Some days I only wear this and no foundation. Light for winter and medium as the season changes. I love the stuff and have turned on my friends to the same product"
297165,2,Places Near the Mountains - SW Virginia History,"This is one of the best books on the history of Roanoke, VA and the surrounding areas. The author focuses on the families of the area and includes old photos of houses and people. Great for genealogy researchers!"
297270,2,Both sides of the river,"Barbara came from the far side of the Hudson, a world away from Manhattan, and became it's ""Queen"". I laughed...I cried and most especially loved the accounts of her magical childhood in a 4 room home filled with 10 kids. Can't wait to see the movie!"
297312,2,Pretty Funny,"Man in the Vineyard is a comedy that aired on KBS back in 2006. It's a funny show and Yoon Eun-Hae is hilarious. The only drawback to owning the one i bought on dvd is the english captions. If you have some knowledge of the korean language, it sholudn't be a problem."
297335,2,Kinddred,"I am not a seasoned reader, however, I liked this book so much that I feel the need to write about it. I usually steer clear of science-fiction novels, but Kindred is different in that it has to do with history; it was real at one time. It is about a African-American writer, Dana, who is forced to go back in time to save an ancestor in the pre-civil war south. Twists occur when her white husband travels back with her. She is forced to live a house slave's life; she is forced to think of whites as better than herself. It is interesting to watch how she goes from ""acting"" her part to really being accustomed to living as a servant. She does, however, hold on to some of her exisiting convictions. She is compelled to stand up for beliefs and well as others' well beings. There are many challenges that she has to face, and she conquers many them. Because of it, she becomes a better person."
297341,2,Hamilton Beach 68010,"The electric Ice Shaver makes fine shaved ice, but I had a difficult time to get the blade to grab the ice and get it moving. Once it started it was okay, but it did take some effort."
297366,2,Doesn't Disappoint,"This meditation system doesn't disappoint. I highly recommend it to friends and family. If you are looking for a simple and quick way to relax and center yourself, this is for you."
297402,2,darkman - the modern phantom of the opera,"I bought this magazine because I'm a big fan of Darkman, the movie. It is a sort of modern retelling story of the Phantom of the Opera.The comic is a paper version of the Darkman movie.The front cover is very beautiful, and on the backsite is a portret photo of the movie Darkman Liam Neeson.Because that cover is drawn so beautifully, didn't i exspect that the comic itself was not so beautifull drawned, and all in black and white.But it is a must have for every Darkman fan."
297433,2,Lawdy Lawd the things this has done...,for me so glad that this shampoo was made for me to start to dread my hair and get my hair together lol...
297534,2,"Excellent, but want a model without the handle","I have a similar model, pretty much exactly the same but without the tray. If I had known this existed, I would have bought that one instead. The model I own is the only one the local corporate supplier had. What a great bag! I'm an Apprentice Electrician, and this fits everything I need except a pole. Nice smaller pockets for my Flash Drive to hold digital versions of books, study guides, and my Apprentice Hour logs, without fear of being damaged. You can easily reach anything in this bag, except for large items like a composition book (for notes) in the center, because the handle is in the way. I wish you could remove the handle, as I always use the bag with a rolling cart or the shoulder strap instead."
297548,2,"If you love anime like i do, you will enjoy Angel Wars.","I have read some of the other reviews below and was quite suprised to find out that this is a Christian show. I bought it because i am a rabid anime fan always looking for something new. I think it will appeal to anyone who loves great animation and good stories no matter what their background. That being said, i do recognize the strong underlying positive messages as well as the theological references and i must say it was very well done. I know that neither i nor my kids like to be beaten over the head with a preachy moral lesson, but like any parent i want the entertainment for my family to be positive. This show hit the mark for me. Just checked out Episode 2 and it is even better!!"
297714,2,A thoughtful gift,Bought several of these tie bars for gifts to my husbands wait staff at the restaurant he manages. Useful and still attractive.
297775,2,Walk A Wetland With This Guy,"Well-written and an easy read. It made me want to do 2 things: Strap on my waders and head to the nearest wetland to see what I can find and order the other books in his ""wet sneaker"" trilogy. Enjoy."
297779,2,Brooding thriller starring Skarsgard is eerie and intriguing,"I had been looking forward to seeing this film for some time and when I did, I was completely enraptured into the performance of Stellan Skarsgard, who is utterly wonderful. The Norwegian language is truly beautiful and rounds out the edges of this brilliant film. Americans should continue looking to Norway for the truly risk taking and edgy films like Insomnia, Junk Mail-another dark film with comedic edges which is almost, but not quite as good as this one. A breathtaking film!"
297792,2,Great truck,"I bought this truck for my 3 1/2 year old for Christmas. My wife was skeptical that he'd enjoy it, considering his fixation on Thomas, Mickey and all the other characters dominating kids' tv. Despite receiving tons of other gifts, this is his favorite. It not only looks like the real thing, it also works like the real thing. Very impressive and pretty durable."
297795,2,the best and funnest toy for kids,my kids love this and it has been very durable....lots of moveable gadgets and removable parts but easy for parents to put back together as needed....
297813,2,Great service,"Thanks for your speedy service, and for sending exactly what I ordered. You build confidence in on-line purchasing with your wonderful service."
297863,2,It was what I needed,The charger came within a few days of my ordering it. I liked the informative instructions that were included with this charger. Not many customers would even think about measuring the voltage of a charger before attaching to their battery. The probability of damaging the battery is high when the charger is shorted or malfunctioning. This simple practise can save one from being frustrated and disappointed.
297892,2,love it,wish they just had the refills though. they now longer make the refills so i have to buy the whold dispenser for the tape. best packing tape i have ever used becasue i don't have to fight for the end of the roll everytime!!!! great tape and so far amazon is the only place i can get it.thanks
297923,2,Cool camera but..,"It is a great looking camera, very light and stylish but the lcd screen is not good at night... so it is better to use at daylight."
297959,2,Economical and good quality!,"I have a small dog and we live in an apartment--thus we rely on piddle pads all the time. We have tried many kinds--cheaper ones and more expensive. We find these made by iris are very absorbent, and compartamentalize the urine, so it doesn't ""run"". My chihuahua and I love them!"
297977,2,Great Story Line!,"This is the second in Ms. Murray's Lambert series and the plot thickens! I am having a lot of fun following the day to day life of the rich and...well, you will just have to read the book for yourself. take my word for it you will be glad you did! The characters are well-developed and the dialogue is great!"
298012,2,easy way to review casually,I like using these books when I don't feel like devoting the time to sit down and really study. I just use it as a fun way to review like playing a trivia game (albeit one I usually can't convince non-vet students to play with me) :)I have heard the questions are harder than the ones on the real test
298022,2,Love Boxwave screen protectors,"Very clear, you can't even tell there is a protector in place. It stays put - no curling up on the edges or bubbles appearing. The protector seems to be just a hair smaller than the glass screen itself which is a GOOD thing in my opinion. Because if you put a tight case on it, sometimes the case would catch the edge of the protector and start to pry it up. But since the screen protector doesn't quite reach the edge, it keeps the lip of the case from hitting it curling it up."
298071,2,4 stars for the 1st four tracks,"Track Listing: 1. Freedom Motiv 8 radio Mix 2. Original Radio Edit 3. Marks Guitar Vocal 4. Motiv8 Vocal Liberation Mix 5. Untidy DubIf you want to get down and move your body to ""Freedom"", than this CD is for you. The Motiv8 Vocal Liberation Mix only appears on this Australian issue and not available on both UK and Europes CD I and CD II. All four tracks are superb.Track number 5 is the only track that is unbearable. It's ""The Untidy Dub"" which is not getting any star rating from me.This single is a collector's item for all true Erasure fans."
298129,2,Useful,I keep my dog in his pen when I'm at work and this contraption helps to keep his excretions confined and not trickling over to the bottoms of the sides of the pen walls. I find it very useful.
298138,2,Great product,Because I cannot do stairs we wanted to train our new puppy with potty pads. Until we found something to hold them they were Sophie's best and favorite toy. This tray has helped us through the silly season of potty training and now has become the proper place for her to 'go'.
298192,2,Topical relief,I walk and square dance and sometimes wind up with achy muscles and joints.Applying this and taking some OTC pain reliever allows me to sleep all night and wake up feeling good in the morning!
298210,2,rosenius daily meditations,An excellent devotional book. Rosenius' daily devotions are short but thought provocing and easy to comprehend. He was a respected spiritual leader in his day and his messages are timeless and just as applicable today as when they were written/
298217,2,"fits nicely in supersmall case,speeeeedy delivery,runs as expected","Since my case was small I had to use modded ide cables for better ventilation,but this card packs a punch for its size"
298225,2,Love it!,"Got this in Saturday Morning, Its HUGE! Love it! There is one downside, Its just the Leaf, there is no 'New Zealand' on it. Other than that its a great product, like i said its really big which i love. I'm just bummed that it doesn't say 'New Zealand'."
298246,2,TOP NOTCH WRITING AND PREMISE WILL HAVE YOU ENTHRALLED,"Ritual of Proof was the best book I've read in three years. From the characterizations to the plot to the sumptuous descriptions, rop is an unforgettable tale. Certainly a must for anyone who loves to see a writer stretch her writing boundaries and the boundaries of genre fiction. Once started, it is impossible to set aside. After it is finished you will think a long time about these people and the world they live in. A huge thumbs up from me! This is one of the few books I've added to my most reccomended list. I loved it!"
298256,2,A Page Turner,This was a very good debut novel -0 Kept the reader interested. Waiting for the sequel
298268,2,Sticks Afterward,"When I first read this book, it seemed like any other. The writting was simple, which I liked because it focused on the strory.I loved some of the imagery. There are scenes that clearly stand out in my mind to this very day.I read the book long ago, when I was going through some sexual questioning.I think many people, both gay and straight, should read this novel."
298284,2,Couldn't Sit on Toilet for 2 days...,"This was a great lower body and ab workout. After doing it for the first time, the next day I was so sore I had to hold on to the back of the toilet seat to sit down. And I do aerobics on a regular basis. Apparently I wasn't hitting those muscles. Great Quick and fun Workout."
298359,2,Good with some mods.,"This is a nice warm weather sleeping bag or addition to cold weather gear. I modified mine for backpacking. Cut off the zipper, cut a taper into it so it narrows by the feet, then sew it up to about halfway from the foot to the top. It cuts the weight in half, reduces bulk and makes an excellant bag liner. Get ten degrees or more out of your sleeping bag, and the liner is easily washed. At this price I got two, one for the house and one to modify..."
298374,2,No handle,"I bought 3 similar canisters a few years ago. I keep them on the bottom shelf of my baker's rack. And, the handle makes it so easy to pick up. I needed another and looked at many places on the Internet and didn't realize they don't have handles anymore. Bummer. But, it will still do the job for storing my specialty flour."
298392,2,A MUST for those who want traditional music of the season,Of all Christmas cds I have collected over the years this 2 cd set is a masterpiece! If you love choral music and traditional carols from the days of Charles Dickens this is a joy. No Jingle bell Rock or grandma getting run over by a reindeer. This music is the stillness and peace of Christmas Eve when all the rushing is done and you remember all the joys of Christmas' past. This music will take you there.
298394,2,"LOVE this old album...brings back fun memories, even if you think it's ""corny"".","Love these guys, this is the best album to get of all their old music. Hats off to amazon for offering it to us for such a low price, we love you guys!"
298457,2,everything was as promised,"it works great used it on my old cameras, shined them right up :)i would reccomend this product to others!"
298526,2,NICE sound!,This is a great simple piece of equipment that looks and sounds great. The thing with this is that it only has one AUX output and the cables are cumbersome.
298534,2,THIS BOOK WILL KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF!,"This book,Muggie Maggie by Beverly Cleary, is about a girl named Maggie who's class is starting to learn script.Maggie decides that she does not want to write in script. She tries it one time, and she wrote Muggie Maggie by mistake.After that, all of the kids started calling her Muggie Maggie. Finally one day she decided to write in script and her teacher was very proud of her decision. My favorite part was when the kids started to calling her Muggie Maggie!"
298543,2,It works!,"Nothing outstanding. Let's face it, it is just a coffeemaker, but it works! Which was the problem with the old one! So far, it is reliable (I wake up to the smell of fresh-brewed coffee) and it makes a decent cup of joe. The rest is really up to me -using good, clean water, an excellent brand of coffee, replacing the charcoal filter, cleaning it regularly."
298621,2,silent witness,It was great. I had trouble putting the book down. The author has a knack for kEeping you glued to the book.
298642,2,Great - once it was formatted.,"I tried this drive on two XP and one Win2K PCs and they all detected the hardware but didn't recognize it as a drive after following the installation instructions. Long story short, there are apparently some situations where Windows doesn't recognize the factory-set FAT32 partition. The Western Digital support Website has a knowledgebase with a nicely written answer about the issue (ID 207) that takes you through the steps for initializing and formatting the drive. It took about 20 minutes to chug through the formatting with a single NTFS partition, but now it works as advertised. Happy ending."
298708,2,I've got ~8 ratchets and this is my favorite!,"I don't even know how many ratchet sets I have, Craftsman, and many other brands. I've worked with Snap on, SK Wayne, and many other industrial brands. While I really like the pivoting head design on some other ratchets, for 90% percent of the automotive work I do, this is my favorite by far.The rotating action works great, and the quality is first rate. I've abused it for over 5 years now, and it's still going strong.It lets you take up the slack in the ratcheting mechanism with a twist of the wrist if you need to get a bolt of in tight quarters, and once you've got the bolt loose, or tightening it, rotation is all you need.Fantastic."
298728,2,Haute Latin noir -- how can you resist?,"Consider: Cigarettes, Bols gin, drop-dead blonds, and biblophilia...in Portugese. All this is set within the elite class of a Spanish culture -- refined and erudite, with a tinge of Bohemia. It is noir of a distinctly different flavor and appealing on that basis alone. But the author also blends in facinating tidbits about the world of the written word, both physical and meta-physical. All this combines to successfully generate a strong sense of place and mood -- the signs of a fine story in the Chandler tradition. Sadly, the Club Dumas also suffers from the standard Chandler downfall -- the fizzling plot resolution. And, in fact, the ending of the book comes as an anti-climax. But go back and read the passages about bookbinding and Alexander Dumas and the cafes. These are the true pleasures of this book."
298759,2,It Really IS Easy Sewing,"I recommend Easy Sewing for Infants for anyone wanting to save money on clothing costs. I like being able to only enlarge the patterns I want, this saves precious storage space. The patterns in this book need to be enlarged which takes some extra time but it also is very easy to make any needed alterations to them right away. There are many time saving tips listed and the book pays for itself easily with completion of just 1 or 2 projects!"
298824,2,Thought provoking military history,"If you are interested in the development of war, this is an excellent read, otherwise turn away. The author shows how Napoleon's decline began as his enemies fought like he did, in a modern fashion. He makes the case that war as we understand it today began in 1809. The maps are wonderful, although the level of operational detail was a bit much."
298872,2,Best of the trilogy,"I've read all three books and while the first two were interesting and fun, they didn't really connect for me with the ""universe"" that is the Terminator concept.This third book, however, really felt like it might happen, and was an extension of the existing movie-created story.Yes, the story jumps through the future, but those jumps skip over periods of time that would require a book (or multiple books) in themselves.Best part of this book? No cyber seals. Hated that foolishness about the 2nd book.While reading the previous two books would be helpful, it's not required. Check this book out, assuming you can find it!"
298945,2,Ignore the ignorant reviews by spoiled 15 year old brats...,I'm appalled that so many people are giving this season horrible one-star reviews for no good reason. All I personally care about are getting all of the episodes in good quality format. If you people care so much about the stupid commentaries you need to stop caring and get a life. Maybe get laid...
298988,2,Amazing Keyboard!,"Shipping was very fast. Came in a very well protected box and sealed up nice. Setup was quick and easy! The keyboard feels really nice, I'm loving the curved design, feels a lot better than my old keyboard. Keys are spaced out perfectly, everything works great! I highly recommend this keyboard to anyone! :DP.S The keyboard looks black in the pictures but in reality its more like a blue-ish color."
298989,2,Decent keyboard for the money!,"I bought this to replace my girls keyboard, for the money, this is a decent keyboard. They put some hot keys at the top to access your browser, media player, etc, and it has a nice curved ergonomic design. Its comfortable to type on, although I myself prefer more mechanical keyboards that click when you type, but beggars cant be choosers, and at this price, its a great deal."
299012,2,Good stuff,"This is a good lotion. Does a good job at taking any of my redness away, and smells like sun tan oil-one of my favorite smells. The only thing is I wish it was just a little more moisturizing. I find I have to put on my normal face lotion first, and then put on this after. Other than that it is great."
299112,2,Freaky Food Lab is Freakishly Fun!,"I bought this toy for my 4 1/2 year old boy. He LOVES it and we are having so much fun. We do an ""experiment"" about every other day together and it always has us laughing. Of course, he cannot read well enough yet to follow the experiment directions himself so there is no way he could play with this toy unassisted. But I bought the toy so we would have something fun to do together - - - I was just getting sick of baking cookies and making rice krispy treats. This is WAY more fun and leads to a lot of laughs. It you like playing with your children, this will give you hours of planned activities - - which is nice and convenient for this busy Mom."
299141,2,almost as good as E.E.Smith,"I just finished reading The Dragon Lensman, and though it was not as satisfying as the first six books of E.E. Smith's Lensman Series, it was still fantastic reading.I had started reading it before, but laid it down unfinished. Then I discovered Z Lensman, read it, enjoyed it, then came back and read Dragon.I do suggest, however, that you read Dragon first, then Z second, as Z builds on some of the events of Dragon, then, of course, read the Rigellian version.If you love E.E.Smith's books, as I do, then definitely read David Kyle's three Lensman books, written from the points of view of the other three Second Stage Lensmen.John (www.MAZES.com) Knoderer"
299148,2,Great Story,This book like the others dose a wonderful job of tying in other characters. My children love it!
299182,2,Have Your Way With Me,"This entire CD is an inspiration. It has themes that can touch the hearts of all ages. It speaks of hope, trust, love, and life time commitments. Have your way with me is such an important song and should be shared with anyone you know is stuggling with the forces of evil. It should be the theme song for all youth ministrys today. All of the songs on the CD speak directly to your heart and give you reason to look into your own soul. The music range includes, traditional, hip hop, R & B, and jazz. You will be captured by the beat of the CD, but the message can save your soul. This is a Joruney everyone should be on. BUY IT"
299249,2,Great product for the money,This bib is a great value. Cleans easily and has enough length to cover for food that is dropped into the lap by the wearer.
299267,2,Crystal clear book on non relativistic quantum mechanics,"Excellent book to learn the foundations and applications of quantum mechanics at undergraduate level. The format is1) Mathematics for quantum mechanics2) Postulates3) Angular momentum theory4) Time independent and dependent applications in 1,2 and 3 dimensions.The section on angular momentum theory is very well written.Worked out examples and problems are introduced at the right time through the text to consolidate the theory."
299432,2,Old memories,"James and Arty are still at their jobs of catching he bad guys. A couple of new gadgets or inventions from Arty, but otherwise pretty much the same old, same old. Still enjoy the series though as it brings back memories of growing up."
299444,2,Good stuff from Jon Stewart and The Daily Show!,"This book was enjoyable and lighthearted. I LUUUUVVV naked pix of Supreme Court Justices, and the fact that WalMart banned the book for that reason. Way to go, DS!If you like Michael Moore or Al Franken, this book is for you. It would be hard to believe that anyone in America is not familiar with The Daily Show, but this is exactly the type of humor that has won the show Emmy's and plaudits from people and pundits nationwide.And the book is a steal here at Amazon for just over ten bucks! Buy it if you're a liberal elitist like me with a sense of humor!"
299464,2,A fine pick for any intending on building a bike.,"HOW TO BUILD AN OLD SKOOL BOBBER by Kevin Baas is a fine survey of a classic American motorcycle and explains which engines fit which frames, which drives to use, and more. Over a hundred pages packs in over three hundred color images and teaches how to build basic bobbers, choppers, and how to use after market and factory frames. A fine pick for any intending on building a bike.Diane C. DonovanCalifornia Bookwatch"
299530,2,Highly recommended for your next move!,"These are an AWESOME product! I wish I had these all the times I've moved in the past. They are great for keeping empty cabinets and drawers, refrigerator closed. They are worth the few bucks they cost!"
299605,2,"Innovative, humorous, and intelligent","Season 3 is my favorite Closer season, for the reasons mentioned in the title. My only fond wish is that more episodes of ALL seasons had some motivation other than sexual ones. I mean, let's get real. We all do many other things and have any number of other passions beyond SEX."
299619,2,Under rated series,The Lone Gunmen: The Complete SeriesFBI special forces TechnoGeek Squad needed better writers for the show. It is still a good Idea.
299623,2,Thule works,"Just got back from a 1600 mile road trip with 5 bikes in the rack hanging out the hitch of my wife's XC90. My bike is the only one of the five that fit perfect, two of the bikes were my wife's and my daughter's and two were my sons' all of which did not have a cross bar to sit over the rack's two bars in a ""pretty"" manner. With some patience and wiggling all five bikes fit and were strapped snug over the rack. It held really well even through the hills and mountains of northern Georgia. The bikes come off easily and we were able to unload. The only problem is that if the rack is fully loaded with five bikes you better have a good reason to get into the back of your SUV because it takes three people to gently let the rack down and to put it back up."
299641,2,"When, oh when can I purchase this!!!!!",Cannot wait. This author explcates the seemingly inexplicable with ease and elegance. Have been waiting ten years since his latest endeavor and know I shall not be disappointed.
299667,2,Longtime accumulator of Japanese weapons,This is a must have for anyone interested in collecting Japanese weapons of the pre 1946 time frame. Much effort was put into research and the pictures are priceless. Buy this book before you even think about buying a Japanese rifle and it will pay for itself many times over.
299676,2,Great product,This product worked exactly as I expected it to. It installed very easily and makes the rear speakers sound perfectly. I'm pleased.
299739,2,great for the price,"This is a great dresser for the price. Good size, not too hard to put together. The only down fall is the plastic sliders that slide the drawer open and close. Other then that I am happy with it :)"
299788,2,Bakes well!,"I purchased this item and was very pleasantly surprised at the quality of the pan. Being a brownie lover, I haven't had a negative experience yet with this product."
299814,2,I've been living on chocolate ice-cream,"Dramarama's unterestimated and underrated brilliance stuns me. They are the masters of dreamy, wistful and sad. While this album does, indeed, provide just a slice of the Dramarama experience (check out ETC, on the first album, for example- it really should have made it on to the Best Of), it is a fairly meaty slice and a reasonably satisfying one."
299843,2,Fun for dinosaur lovers,"Being an aunt who spoils her nephew, I had to get this for my nephew, Dominic. He loves anything that has to do with dinosaurs, and has since he was less than a year old. He's had this toyset for several years and still plays with it. The carrying case prevents pieces from getting lost."
299890,2,Definitely Celine's Finest English Album!,"I've been a fan of Celine's ever since I first heard her sing in French over 10 years ago and it's been great to watch her rise to superstar status after learning to speak English. As far as this album goes, I still think it's far and away her best English-language recording. Celine is at ber best here, knocking out emotional ballads that highlight the beauty, power and range of her voice. There's also a nice sprinkling of up-tempo songs like ""Love Can Move Mountains"" but it's the ballads that steal the show. Songs like ""Show Some Emotion"", ""If You Asked Me To"", ""If You Could See Me Now"" and ""With This Tear"" are so beautifully performed that you cannot help to be moved by them. I like her other English albums a lot but this is the only one I can listen to without skipping any tracks...every song is a winner! A must-have for any Celine fan."
299891,2,More than a soundtrack.,"When this cd was released, it was more than a great soundtrack to a cool movie, it also served as an instant ""Best Of Grunge"" collection. It's true there's no ""Nirvana"", but when you listen to what IS here, I'm sure you'll find yourself in a state of bliss. Included are songs from ""Alice In Chains"", ""Soundgarden"", ""Mudhoney"", ""Screaming Trees"", and two from ""Pearl Jam"". Plus epics from ""Mother Love Bone"", and ""Smashing Pumpkins"". Also there's excellent non-grunge from ""Paul Westerberg"", ""Jimi Hendrix"", and ""Lovemongers"", (Heart). It's really just a great collection of killer music. The only way it could have been any better, is if it was packaged in flannel."
299914,2,Timeless Jazz,"Excellent recording by this talented group of all-stars. Recorded in 1990, this is the fourth and final CD by this quintet. With Bobby Hutcherson on Vibes, Harold Land on Sax, Cedar Walton on Piano, Billy Higgins on drums, Buster Williams on Bass and Steve Turre on Trombone it is difficult to go wrong. All five are leaders in their own right. This recording features compositions by all members of the group except Higgins. The music is hard bop/post bop. Solos are delivered with the grace and intelligence one would expect from musicians of this caliper. I believe this is also the final pairing of Bobby Hutcherson and Harold Land, who together produced some of the finest hard bop recordings you will ever find. I highly recommend any of the late 60's Blue Note recordings that feature these two great artists. If you are a fan of Bobby Hutcherson, Harold Land or Cedar Walton I recommend all four of the recordings by this group if you can find them."
299918,2,Easy-to-Follow Rules,"There are a number of variations in Mexican Train rules. The rules on this site are based on the original Parsons rules and are clear, easy-to-follow, and make for a very good game:www.MexicanTrainRulesAndStrategies.com"
299952,2,Half illuminating,"This is one of the best ""Saints Lives"" books I've seen. The translation is lively, and the entries read more as stories and less as a catalog of horrors (as sometimes happens with the lives of saints). There's just one problem - this is just one of a set. You'll need to buy the other volume to get the full effect."
299953,2,Good Deal,"Monistat Soothing Care Chafing Relief Powder-Gel, 1.5-Ounce Containers (Pack of 3.)Order recieved as stated, expiration date in 1 year (not in 3 mos or less as some products are). Will use this buyer again. Thanks!"
299967,2,The Goodbye Look,"The Goodbye Look is another excellent Lew Archer novel by Ross MacDonald. Archer is called on the case to investigate the theft of a antique jewelry box owned by the wealthy Chalmers family. Initially suspicion falls on the Nick the only son. Nick is a mixed up kid who has just dropped out of college. As Archer investigates, the threads he pulls lead him to murders commited decades before.This another excellent installment in the Lew Archer series. MacDonlad is a worthy heir to Hammett and Chandler in the hardboiled detective genre."
299979,2,Great Rope albeit not easy to shorten,"Great rope, comfortable handles, however, shortening the rope is very difficult because it requires special pliers to compress the e-clips that retain the bearings into the handle. Then, the exposed rope end is held in place with a crimped sheet steel retainer that is very difficult to enlarge and free the rope end. Then, after shortening the rope, you have to re-crimp the deformed retainer and struggle to compress the e-clip bearing retainer back into the handle. Seems to me that for fifty-cents more, everlast could have used the threaded brass collar rope retainer that Reeebok uses and made it signifcantly easier for the consumer to be able to customize the rope length albeit not much easier to remove the e-clip retainers though."
299980,2,Tears Of Fire,"This is an excellent retrospective of Tammy's career. Among the more than 50 tracks are over twenty of her biggest hits, but it's not just a greatest hits collection. There are a few of her duets with George Jones, but that's not the focus of this release. Coming out in 1992, there are three previously unreleased tracks and many little known gems. The songs are nearly evenly distributed among the years, starting with her first hit ""Apartment #9"" in 1967 through three songs recorded in 1990-91. If you're just looking for the hits, there may be a better collection, but if you're a Tammy Wynette fan, this is indispensable. One of the highlights for me is her version of Mickey Newbury's ""Poison Red Berries"" from 1974, here still known by it's original name ""I Don't Think About Him No More""."
300001,2,decent get what u pay for,I got this set for around the house and for that it is perfect. To use these all the time they will stand up to abuse but there are better sets out there.Cheers
300020,2,I can't believe it's only available from 3rd party sellers,Awesome!! This book should should be a must read in public schools. What's wrong with people! This book is inspiring! Ifpeople read more books like this they wouldn't be on anitdepressants.. The word would be a better place. The unavailability of this book is a reflection of society.
300057,2,Lives Up To The Hype,"I have heard about this guy for years and finally took a listen. Well, worth the time. I love uplifting music that isn't preachy and this one is certainly one of the best I have run across. Well worth having for those who want to stay in the spiritual flow."
300101,2,Blends people's encounters and experiences with wind and storms with scientific fact to make for a lively read,"WINDSWEPT: THE STORY OF WIND AND WEATHER joins others on the topic of weather but here provides an award-winning nature writer's survey of how weather has been perceived and described through the ages: wind, in particular. From wind's ability to influence world patterns and paths to how wind influences health and crime in human affairs, WINDSWEPT is much more than the usual meteorological analysis: it blends people's encounters and experiences with wind and storms with scientific fact to make for a lively read.Diane C. DonovanCalifornia Bookwatch"
300176,2,As expected,"The order processed through Amazon as expected. Product arrival took a bit longer than anticipated, but came in good condition. The actual opener was easy to install, instructions were clear and it is working fine. The price was competitive. All in all no issues . Amazon delivered its promise. It would be five stars except it took a week longer than one should expect to get the product."
300182,2,One of my favorite CDs,"You know, sometimes i like to go and look at the 1 star reviews of CDs i own and many times it makes me laugh. The ones i'm reading here are downright hilarious. It's mostly conservative people accusing them of being communist/anarchists/aetheists etc. For those who are saying they suck because they were a sell-outs for using a corporate giant you need to think about it before calling them that. One of the simplist ways of getting your message accross nowadays is music, the bigger the label the better, that way your message gets out to millions of people. They weren't selling-out, they were being smart. True, if your views are more conservative you'll hate the lyrics that Zach has written. However, if you don't care about the views in the lyrics, or believe in what he says, than it's a good cd overall.Favorite Tracks: Bombtrack, Township Rebellion, Freedom, Wake Up"
300228,2,good but small..,"If you have a big lens like 24-105mm or bigger, it will not fit when its fixed on camera.I will get a bigger one for my extra lenses and othe gera like flash and ect..but its good for body and one small lens. Good quality too."
300262,2,Great writing instrument!,Hard to find in retail outlets. Older model but absolutely the best bang for your buck. Comfortable and precise. Highly recommended!
300263,2,"Fun, but with a couple of issues","This game is a definitely a lot of fun and a good way to sink some time, but I do have a couple of minor complaints: 1) I'm not a big fan of how you can't save a game while in the middle of dungeon crawling; if you get killed by the boss, you have to go all the way through the dungeon to get back to that encounter. . . and 2) way too many ""random"" encounters in the dungeons. I enjoy a fight as much as the next RPG-er, but not so much that I like finishing one fight, taking two steps, and having another one. . .over and over and over.Other than those issues, I do really like the game."
300294,2,Romantic reverie,"Even though this album is a little sad, it's great to hear a mature Francoise Hardy in duet with old friends. Some of the songs are just beautiful, while some are very sad and perhaps thought provoking. As a fan of Francoise Hardy in her youth, I am thrilled to have this CD. AND it gives me a reason to brush up on some of my French vocabulary!"
300356,2,"Not quite Ten, but equally worthy of a listen or two","It seems rare that a band with a debut as popular as Ten was for Pearl Jam lives up to the hype surrounding their second release. Vs. lived up to the hype, and even exceeded expectations. While it sounds rather removed from the Classic Rock sound of Ten, Vs. was an important step toward where the band is now. The result of the band's experimentation (for lack of a better word) is an exceedingly listenable record. Out of Pearl Jams five studio albums todate, Vs. has some of the most artful tracks, including ""Indifference"" and ""Elderly Woman..."" In a welcome contrast, Pearl Jam delivers some full throttle rockers as well. Some tracks don't work as well as others, such as WMA, but even this is worth listening to."
300377,2,Perfect,"Works like a charm with my canon 50d and now my canon 60d. No setup required, just point and click."
300400,2,its ok,"this is queen latifah in a very different stage on what we used to see her...really I like her singing R&B; classics, but rappin were what made her famous and that's something we cannot forgetbut it's veeery goood!!"
300401,2,Execellent cd,"This cd is excellent. Eventhough it isn't very commercial which means that it's not going to appeal to the majority of music buyers out there. Anyway if you're looking for some music that is well produced, and if you're a Queen Latifah fan, buy it anyway because she is so talented, and she is one of the few rapper artist that can sing. She has a real nice smooth voice. The track with her and Al green I reccommend., and of course the classic ""Hello Stranger"" originally recorded by Barbara Lewis in the 60's. This was and still is a beautiful song. Dana Owens aka Queen Latifah does a nice cover of this song, if you don't have this cd go out and buy it today."
300460,2,mr. dylan's revolution,"mr. dylan again reinvents himself and again stirs a revolution. all right, so it's not newport and, no, not as many people were paying attention in 1992 when this album hit the stands, but it sent shockwaves through the musical world. bob dylan had gone back acoustic! this collection of folk songs and blues is powerful from start to finish, with mr. dylan reminding the world that he is an incredible musician, not just an icon. his guitar work is impeccable and his singing as eccentric as ever, but moving in its emotionalism. you feel the plight of the ballads' characters (highlights: frankie and albert, blackjack davey, and the chestnut, froggie went a-courtin'). the blues sound like they are right from the delta (check out ""sitting on top of the world,"" in particular). mr. dylan's return to his roots reveal they are deep and healthy. enjoy the record!"
300509,2,awesome album,"I've been a fan of this band since their original release years ago. This is not their best stuff, but still very descent. As always there are tons of excellent guitar riffs, with the drums to match. This album is missing those brutal breakdowns From Autumn fans are accustomed to. It is still a very solid album throughout."
300527,2,self service nightmare,All I wanted to do was to replace the cracked plastic headlight lens; but it turned out to be a monstrous job! I needed to remove the entire front bumper just to replace the headlight. If there are some tips or instructions on how to replace the headlight module come along with the parts would be helpful.
300639,2,Jam anyone?,"This CD capture a great band during their heyday. If your a SD fan you should pick it up. If your not a big fan, this cd could change your mind. I have listened to it many times over and over. The recording quality is great and the cd is jam packed full of the energy of a live show."
300688,2,Book Review,"This book is great. The Patsy character is my mother-in-law. She and all her brother and sisters are still living well in 2006. She resides in the south while her brother and sisters live in the northern region. She has 6 kids of her own and MANY grand childern. I have heard her tell her stories of living on the river, and it is great to be able to read about it in a story book as well. She talks about wanting to go down the river again someday and she just might."
300735,2,great service,"thanks for great service, item was as expected, came very fast, packed nicely, thanks again for the great service thanks"
300776,2,Classic!!,"I read this book 3 times.Fist time as a college student. I had been told if I was going to medical school then I had to read it. I thought it was the most perverted, sexist, racist and generally horrid piece of trash I had ever come across. I could not for the life of me understand why anyone would tell me this was a book to read.Second time was as a 3rd year. I still thought it was pretty bad but perhaps had some redeeming moments and was worth reading.Third time was the middle of internship - before the kinder gentler 80h work week limits - on my one vacation of the year. I literally fell out of my chair splitting my sides laughing."
300799,2,Good movie....,"PU-239 is a relativately unknown movie. I came across the preview on some other movie a few months back and was intrigued by it.The other reviews have summed up the plot pretty well, so I won't bore you with more of that.PU-239 is a dark suspense Russian gangster movie, with alot of comedy mixed in. The acting in the movie is pretty good, considering the mostly unknown cast.A great dvd to check out if your looking for someting a little out of the ordinary!Highly recommended!"
300870,2,Great for amateurs!,"I am an amateur at making espresso drinks. I love Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, and other professional versions. I wanted to try my hand at making lattes because I've been spending a lot of money on them lately. With the small investment I made into this milk & coffee set, I can now make great coffees in my own kitchen any time I want. The milk frother alone was worth the investment. This was a great purchase!"
300926,2,Native Music Done A New Way,"I bought this album after getting a free sampler from the record company after buying another title. May You Walk In Sunshine was on the free C.D., and I thought I would give it a try. I was very impressed with the album. Excellent music with Native American chants. I was a bit leary about getting such an album, but after listening to it, I am very glad I bought it. I listen to it after hard days at work, and the next thing I know I am ready to go. In order to keep this review short, I will just say this: GET THIS ALBUM NOW !! You will not be sorry. Enjoy !!"
300975,2,May be enjoyed by Harry Potter fans,"Though it doesn't include the humor that the Potter books have, I see similarites between High House and the Potter books--young man learning magical powers. The plot moves quickly with plenty of action, though sometimes I wondered how Carter could be so naive as to fall for the traps of his evil opponents, e.g., the Child (Order Incarnate). Otherwise, I would have given this book a 5. I greatly appreciated finding an entertaining read sans vulgar language and sex. Kudos to the author for proving it can be done with style! I'm looking forward to the sequel."
301056,2,You have to love puppets!,"I would only recommend these for people or children that have a true interest in Sesame Street, and in puppetry. Otherwise, they may seem boring to a 'video game kid.' My husband and I put on a show for our 20 month old and she laughed and watched our performance for at least a half of an hour. She LOVES Sesame Street... and ANYTHING Elmo!"
301065,2,"This slicer can make it happen, much easier than cutting by knife","This is a great little slicer. The box is not huge, so you cannot make huge fries, but that's okay. Sweet potatoes are little tough to get through it, but if you cut it up into smaller pieces, 1/4's, its not bad. What's really great is how easy the blades come out to clean it. Overall I am very happy with this slicer. Does what it says and does it pretty good."
301080,2,Shorter version of Act 1 Finale,Excellent production and singing.But this production uses the short version of the Act I finale so buyers beware - if that matters to you. (I prefer the long version.)
301111,2,Very helpful for those on the road...,"As a frequent traveller and someone interested in specific running goals, (as opposed to ""just going out for a jog"") the Forerunner 305 has been extremely helpful.My wife originally got me the Forerunner 405 BUT it was too small for my wrist. (The 305 has a larger, alternate wrist strap). My wife refers to the 305 as a ""laptop for the wrist"" but it is not heavy or cumbersome - the buttons are clearly marked and easy to use.The various training workouts are helpful and easy to program (pace / distance / time / interval workouts...). I have had no problems with the GPS - just remember to turn the unit on when you are outside and ready to run (to ensure GPS reception). Aural alerts are helpful and there are enough functions to check out that can keep you occupied on long runs.I have not explored all of the training or navigation functions on the 305 but I would venture to say that there are more than the average runner would need to use."
301124,2,multi tasks,"I use the 305 for all of my training as well as geocaching (GPS scavenger hunt). As a personal trainer I can take my clients on a different route every time and still have an accurate distance, time and pace. I can also use the garmin software to track my clients progress. One feature that my clients love is the Motion Based web sight where I can map out out and track our route on google earth. Its a great way to add value to my training program. I'm also looking forward to getting the cadence package for my bike."
301159,2,Really good read - just a little short.,"Good, satisfying read in the style of a techno-thriller in space. Could have been a bit longer, if anything. Keeps you wanting to read more."
301380,2,Lovely Jim Shore figurine,"My Jim Shore Angel figurine is lovely and even tho it has a Christmas theme, I plan on keeping it out long after the holiday season is over.Just too cute to put away."
301383,2,Have to weigh in,I don't usually do reviews but I must say I don't understand the negative comments. I truly thought this was one of her better works and have recommended it to friends.
301389,2,Progressive Rock at its Finest,"For those of you old enough, there was a ""Supergroup"" called Cream in the mid-60's. Transatlantic carries on the tradition and dares to play LONG songs. The cover of Procol Harum's ""In Held Twas in I"" is amazing. (I also am a long time fan of the Procols.) The rest of this record will satisfy the need for great melody and top notch musicianship. This recording will open doors to Thr Flower Kings, Spock's Beard, Dream Theater as well as the Magna Carta recordings featuring Mike Pornoy, who is the best drummer since Neil Peart & Bill Bruford."
301415,2,A factual and enjoyable book,"After reading the Dan Brown novel, I am extremely happy that someone has finally written a book on the topic that is factual, has a great bibliography and beautiful and related paintings. The book was written in such a way that the author leads you through each section, and each section is fully explored. Great book!"
301460,2,Good for fans of L. M. Montgomery,"If you're not a fan of L. M. Montgomery's work, you might not find this book very interesting - for me, most of the interest came from parallels between her own life and that of various characters in her books, and her explanations of things like how she started writing her first book, why she didn't borrow her characters too closely from real life, etc. I'd have liked to read more of her accounts of how she wrote this story or that.The book is mostly about her childhood and various anecdotes and events from it, along with accounts of how she came to be a published writer. It's fairly short; you can read it in less than an hour, so if you want a good, meaty book, this is not for you. But it's nice to read about her from her own point of view - her journals make good reading but this is more of a summary of info she considered interesting or relevant."
301510,2,Excellent quality with the design to match,"I bought this product (and the burp set) out of pure curiosity and I have to admit I was pleased to see it was beatiful and delicate item.The cotton is of excellent quality and it feels wonderful. Also, the packaging is great for sending the item as a gift.Definetely worth the money."
301584,2,Great find!,"I have a girlfriend who invited us over for dinner and served pizza from her own pizza stone. The pizza was divine! With small children and two working parents, we eat pizza once a week. After ordering my own, we have experimented with pizza 3 times in the last week and a half. The crusts come out nice, brown, crispy. Really happy that I ordered the stone and highly recommend it to others. The stone also works in the oven so don't just think BBQ grill.NEW ADDITION (Jan 5 09). Ok, so months on we are still using and loving the stone. With winter setting in, we have been using it in our oven. Crank the oven up to 500F and let the stone warm up while rolling out the dough and prepping. It is our Friday night ritual. Don't know when the last time was that I ate pizza delivery!"
301606,2,a post graduate delight,An undergrad nightmare as a textA graduate student's dread as a course textbut...A postgraduate student's delight...
301615,2,By far the best book written about a true haunting!,"The People in The Attic held my attention throughout the entire book! I could not put it down..in fact..I read it twice! It was indeed a frightening tale, even more frightening once the reader realizes it is non-fiction. I recommend this book to anyone and everyone who researches, believes or disbelieves, or has had similar experiences with the paranormal. Definately the best book I have ever read. ::::::applause:::::: to the author for sharing her story. :"
301616,2,A New Perspective,"This book was a page turner and I couldn't put it down. It was unknown to me that someone with pyschic tendencies and a background of cruelty affliction and abuse could actually be used by unseen forces to project supernatural phenomena. The house this family purchased was in a magnetic infested area because of power lines and had some major issue problems. Wow! I would have been just as overwhelmed and frustrated as Doretta was. I think when you read books with a supernatural theme, you need to be openminded and unjudgmental. Just because you've never experienced these kind of experiences doesn't mean they don't exist. I am glad I don't live in a haunted house after reading this book."
301620,2,Replacement swings,"We bought two of these swings as replacements for the swings that came with our swing set. They seem to be of higher quality than the original swings. The chains are rubber coated, so they won't rust and are easy for small hands to grip. The seat bottom is also rubber-like, so they shouldn't crack like the plastic belt swings that came with our set."
301629,2,Where are the subtitles?,It's a very good documentary.I'm from Brazil and when i bought this product i forgot to see if there was subtitles in portuguese.And there isn't. So if you are from another country remenber to chek this item before you buy it.
301649,2,One of the best books I've read in a long time,"My fiance actually wanted me to read this book. When I started it, I was a little skeptical, but as I kept reading, I became more and more engrossed. The lessons in this book are ones that are by no means new, but everyone needs a subtle reminder now and then as to what really matters in our lives. I learned many things from this book, and I share many of Mr. Hartmann's opinions and views as expressed in this marvelous book. Everyone should read it, it might make for a better way of living, a personal transformation if you will..."
301669,2,Great wireless router,"I use it on my laptop. Got it to use with the new EyeFi wireless SD card. It's a little slow, but works great. Setup was a little complicated, but eventually got it."
301757,2,Awesome!,"Times are tight these days & we can't afford a $15 drink at a concert (the tickets were a gift). We were going to a venue with tight security & didn't want to set off the metal detector so I purchased these, filled them with liquor a friend had brought over for a BBQ & hid them in the lining of my purse. As they were searching my purse the guy was groping the outside of my purse while doing an extensive internal check & we got through! Not only were we able to save some money but the next morning I discovered that my cats had gotten a hold of one of the flaks. You could see bite marks but as the description says they are puncture proof! Thank goodness because I did not drink all of mine so that would've been a pain to have to clean up after a long night. These things live up to the hype."
301792,2,A good moment,"It's a funny and good movie, and translated in french, the actors are fantastic, especially Sandra Dee and Stéfanie Powers. I recommand it for french people, and the others !"
301822,2,A Fantastic Collection of Wildlife Photos,"After having visited East Africa (and Ngorongoro) 3 times and looked at dozens of wildlife photo books, I entirely agree with the previous review that this is one of the most fantastic collections of wildlife pictures. Till this day I regret not having bought the book while it was still available. I hope the publisher will reprint it (as happened with ""African Elephants"" also by Kunkel)."
301865,2,JFK in the Hiz-ouuuuse!!!,"I am through about half of the book, and after having read some pretty one-sided things about JFK, and the well-balalnced ""Profile in Power"", I would have to say, so far, one of the best JFK biographies, indeed one of the best presidential biographies I have read is ""Unfinished"". No pun intended, er-a.dare mighty things"
301892,2,"Fascinating, but Troubling","I can't remember the last time that a book both fascinated and disturbed me as deeply as this book. The premises that James Morrow pushes in this book - that God is ultimately responsible for the evil in the world is not new. As Morrow explains in his book, this question has its roots in the Book of Job and has been addressed by history's greatest theologians. What separates Morrow from his predecessors is his cataloguing of history's horrors, perpetrated on both societies and individuals. And this catalog is very disquieting. Ultimately, I disagree with Morrow's ultimate position, but I very much respect his writing and his penetrating attacks upon traditional theological justifications for the existence of evil in a society created by an all-knowing and all-loving God."
301894,2,An Oscar-worthy film in many respects,"The performances of Andy Griffith, Patricia Neal, Walter Matthau, and the directive genius of Elia Kazan deserve resounding praise. ""Lonesome Rhodes"" is a far cry from The Andy Griffith Show and Matlock characters! And Walter Matthau--like Griffith's performance, just plain mindblowing! The range of these two actors leave me at a loss for words... Patricia Neal was always ""on point"" as an actress---one of the great ones. It's too bad that this movie fell under the radar back in its day--the Academy missed this one for sure! This cautionary tale is a timeless classic---you'll definitely want this one in your library!"
301901,2,Good fan,"Ok so this fan has 3 settings, I have it constantly running on it's highest (loudest) setting and I can't hear it at all. I sit about 2 feet away from my computer so it's not that I'm far away from it. I'm currently using it as a side fan but I'm planning on getting two more to replace my existing fans.It runs very smooth, has more than decent airflow, keeps all my components cool enough and was extremely easy to install. The price is also really good. I guess the only bad thing is, it wasn't free?I would definitely recommend this product to a friend but not to a foe if you catch my drift."
301955,2,Circulon products are the best,"It seems like I had to buy a non stick pan every two years even though I followed instructions and maintained them according to manufacture directions. However, recently I purchased the Circulon round grill pan. I was truly amazed. No sprays or oils needed, easy clean up. With regard to the 12"" pan with lid, it's great. I do wish it had a handle on the other side because it would be easier to lift. Highly recommend."
302015,2,GREAT BUY FOR A LITLE PRICE,"I bought this book because I wanted to learn how to make comic books.This help me some what, it talks more about how to make zines and how to publish them. But I still found this book use full because it gives tips on how to create your on book, how to make home made paper and new ways of designing the exterior and interior of your home made book.Over all it is a good buy and is helpful to anyone who enjoys art and printmaking like my self!"
302021,2,Light Summer Reading,"I lost my original copy of this book when I was a little more than 1/2 way through it. I had to purchase another copy to get to the end. I enjoyed the book so much, I couldn't put it down. Amazon was even the most reasonable with the price & I received the book in a couple of days. Keep up the good work Amazon.RF"

302107,2,good knives,"I am glad that I purchased these knives. They are sharp and appear to be a quality set. I'm not so sure that I care for the steak knives, they are severely serrated, making them somewhat difficult to clean. All cleaning cloths gets stuck in the blade. The smooth blades are great. Worth the price paid."
302115,2,Binocular camera,"Very good product. Takes great pictures of distant objects. Great for supports,birdwatching and travel. Buy rechargeable batteries."
302121,2,a must for aspiring children's writers,"Very useful book! There are enteries for magazines that accept unsolicited queries. Also entries for books, greeting cards, plays, and illustrations, but I haven't used those sections. There are also guides in the book that help you write query letters, cover letters, etc... I took a $... class about writing for children and this book is better. I will be published this spring in ""Cobblestone"" and ""Class Act."" The book works :)"
302238,2,Latin Fiesta,"Love the music! It's a great CD to get you moving.However, I bought it thinking I could use it for a kids fiesta/party, becuase another review said it was great for kids. I would say it is highly inappropriate for kids, and would not use it to play for a group of children."
302244,2,Works very well with my Olympus printer,"Since I couldn't find this film in my city, I was very happy to have found it at Amazobn.com. There's a store in Kalamazoo, Michigan, that sells it, but it doesn't always have it in the right size.The last couple of times that I have used it, I fiound that the photo developing ink runs out before the paper runs out and also the paper doesn't want to come out of its container when printing."
302280,2,moving,"A stunning elegiac memoir that, like great music, cannot be described in words. There is no ""art"" to Vergara's photographs, and this is one of their greatest strengths-- the subjects of the photos speak for themselves. Vergara seems to feel that the existence of these buildings needs no justification, and I agree. Simultaneously beautiful, grotesque, moving, and shocking. Listen to the Adagietto from Mahler's 5th symphony as you read it."
302283,2,The SP-90 is actually an SP-100,"I got tired of those silly dancing people on the LCD (I don't know why they put them there), so I decided to open up my SP-90 and put some black electrical tape over part of the LCD to hide those little boogers. well, I removed the screws and pulled out the ciruit board and guess what I discovered. Printed on the Board was ""IMP-100"". Not only is it firmware upgradable, but it actually is a ""100"". go figure!By the way, my surgery went fine! it looks good and I know longer have to look at those silly dancing people!"
302323,2,Easy to use,"Bought 2 of this phone to get to our land line. Cell signals weren't working out for us. This phone is easy to use for programming the memory buttons, the volume level works well and is easy to use while talking. It has a speaker function but we don't care for that feature so don't know how well it works.Hand set is comfortable to hold (I have arthritis) buttons easy to press."
302410,2,Lots Of Plot Twists!,I found this book to be extremely interesting! It takes you inside the world of publishing and the writing process itself which I thought was an ingenious idea by itself but Sandra Brown toped even that with her book inside the book! Envy held my attention untill the very end with all it's plot twists and just trying to figure out who is who. This is the first Sandra Brown book that I have ever read but I will certianly be reading more of her work! 5 Stars!
302457,2,Best cell phone I've ever had,"Fabulous phone. I've had it for nearly three months now, and it's awesome. It's a combination camera, camcorder, web browser, and MP3 player, and it even makes and receives phone calls, too! The operating system is very intuitive and user-friendly. I never dreamed I would have had this much fun with the phone at the time I bought it. Highly recommended."
302495,2,Very Touching and Powerful,"I really enjoyed following Neil Henry on his search for ""the other side"" of his family tree. This book has a real suspenseful edge to it as well as profound, touching and painful aspects.There is so much here. History lesson,sociological study,detective story,love story ...it's all here, and very well done."
302557,2,Love my shades,"I even was able to install them by myself!! If you knew me you would buy them just for that fact haha. They look nice, Love the color and if I had more windows that they would fit on I would buy them for my whole house!!"
302610,2,Just a Trim,"This is the second Just a Trim Trimmer I have bought. It is a great grooming item. The blades last quite a while; I was able to order blades about a year ago, but I have not been able to find any more."
302625,2,Give it a try,"Some people have said that this does not work. I dissagree. You need to give a program a chance and not give up on it. If you are already on a program or you are only looking to loose 10 lbs then this is not for you. These exercises are for people who can not lift a lot of weight. I had people in other exercise classes who were much more physically fit then I, and they claimed that the weight I was using was not enought to affect anything. This program is to help you start getting into shape. If you want to keep yourself in shape then you need to do it yourself."
302627,2,great,I was intrigued by the different developmental lifespan of childhood to adult.....this is an awesome book especially for nursing program.
302729,2,Amazing. Simply Amazing,"We're reading this in my 10th Honors English class right now, but it's one of those books I read FIRST on my own and thought: I MUST teach this to my class. It's simply unlike any book I've read; sporting Bradburyesque imagery but delivered in a contemporary narrative. Also very nonlinear, which of course I've got a soft spot for. One of those books that makes me realize all my shortcomings and limitations as a writer."
302742,2,the book thief,i finished this book last night and cried. my son asked me what was wrong. but everything was right. that's what you get with a good book. things can make you cry and be right and be good. i tried to read another book the same night as i have several waiting for me...but it felt like cheating...i needed to spend more time with the memories and the people engaged still with me...this is one of those books. things shall remain.
302902,2,Excellent club mix,"From the second I saw the track listing for this cd, I knew immediately I had to acquire it, especially for the trance version of ""Somewhere Over the Rainbow"". The production gives the listener the feel that they are in a nightclub, dancing up a storm in the wee hours of the morning. I especially dug the trance versions of ""Broken Wings"", ""Relax"", ""Somewhere Over the Rainbow"", ""Here With Me"" and ""Flashdance. What a Feeling"". Both the male and female vocals on those songs are perfect as well as the beats. Granted Dj Ricky Corbo is no Oakenfold or Van Dyk as far as remixing is concerned, nevertheless he does an excellent job at making the songs flow well together. The music is a bit cheesy and probably won't convince hardcore techno enthusiasts that trance music is just as credible as other forms of techno, I still enjoy the cd nonetheless. It's a harmless party album to crank out loud on the stereo before heading out to the clubs on Saturday night."
302921,2,Unleashed,Poor Jet Li being chained up like an animal and only being released to do some bad ass fighting on people his handler doesn't like. He gets away from his handler and ends up with an specially nice father and daughter who take him in and helps him become a human being once again until his handler finds him again. You keep rooting for Jet Li and in the end he learns the truth of what happened to him and to his mother. He finally gets free to be himself. Brought tears to my eyes at the end.
302933,2,Should have been the first recording.,"Another reviewer mentions being able to enjoy this right away rather than listen repeatedly to 'get' the Holdsworth stuff. I'm the guy who -likes- music that takes a few listenings to 'get'. After getting 'up to speed' , (to the extent that this is possible!), on 'Truth In Shredding', 'Centrifugal Funk' isn't as satisfying. When these guys hit full-speed, improvisational creativity is turned off & long stretches of memorized patterns are blasted through. Amazing yes, physically, but not musically, at least, not when compared to actually 'thinking on your feet' through fast tempos, odd meters, and challenging chord progressions. On electric guitar, Holdsworth is -the- modern master of true improvisation on rapid passages. Gambale was up to the challenge, & played his best to-date. I guess there was nowhere to go but down."
302945,2,Thank you!,If it wasn't for this product I don't know how I would have gotten through the emotional rollercoaster ride I was on. Thank God for this Estrotone and Emerita Cream
302971,2,Great value for the money.,"These are a decent pair of headphones for the money. I like the bulky padding. I think they help you enjoy a richer sound than you would get from the earpiece type. So what if they make you look like Princes Leah on a leash? To enjoy music at home, it should be about comfort and sound, not looks."
302982,2,Length too short,"I just purchased this to be able to use it as an extension for my office. The wire of koss spark plug is just about enough for me... a little move and the wire stretches because of which I spoiled one spark plug before... This was the reason, why I bought this as an entension + volume control. I realized, this just satisfies the volume control part and that it does very well without creating a lot of distortion. I haven't tried it with anything other than spark plug though.... The only reason it doesn't get 5 starts, is because its length is too short... which did not satisfy my needs..."
303052,2,What a Connection!!!,"I LOVED reading Soul Adventures. The stories in the book truly encompass that we are all connected and that time and space are all relative. It was amazing to read how experiences not only in early childhood, but previous lifetimes can effect you in this present moment and effect how you choose to respond to a situation in your life. I love how Ms. Adrienne was able to show so many examples of how people can heal themselves by going within to uncover the stories of their soul. Bravo!!! I would definitely recommend scheduling a healing session with Ms. Adrienne... pronto... experience for yourself how dramatically you can change your life by listening to your soul's adventures..."
303059,2,Great investment,Upon receiving the hardcover I was intimidated by the sheer size of the volume but going through this book has been the best possible investment of both my time and the $ to purchase the book itself.It is very detailed with the author providing some incredible insight into each pattern and why we see them develop. It does require a strong time investment but it is worth the time invested.The standardized format to each pattern description and the examples provide some applicable insight that can be easily referenced as needed.One of the best investment I have made in better understanding the markets.
303094,2,I'm flying high defying gravity!,I love this musical. I have been watching it progress for a year and am so happy with the finished product!!!!!
303098,2,Everything I hoped it would be,I love love love it..Worth every penny. I haven't gotten to ref of any song yet. I wish this could be a movie
303131,2,"Good sound quality, not to easy to use.","Sound is better than radio at times, not to easy to locate nearby frequencies in use."
303141,2,"Good phones...for the price, anyway","The Koss Porta-Pro looks delicate, but its folding design belies a hardiness that competitors should try to emulate. All headphones require a ""burn-in"" period before they sound their best, and that's certainly true of the Koss Porta-Pro.After burn-in, they show themselves to be equal to their reputation. Retailing between $30 and $40 or so, they offer good fidelity at low to medium volume, but grate a bit when pushed too hard. The Porta-Pro works nicely with a variety of musical styles, pop and rock to jazz, but occasionally has trouble with the distortion levels of punk; this may not be a problem with most listeners.While the sound is clear and offers fine fidelity, songs often lack ""color"" -- a common complaint with less expensive headphones. Yet, compared to its competition, the Porta-Pro offers a much cleaner sound; no irritating bass thump on these phones.These are the iPod phones of choice."
303142,2,Thumpin cans,"These are the best headphones I have ever owned. I don't buy $250 types but these are great. They are of good quality,portable and sound fantastic!"
303166,2,Very good,Very detailed instruction. Amazing to be able to watch a true Master preform Tai chi. Very happy I bought this.
303232,2,Awsomeness,"these work awsome, even when wet. totally love them. got them in one of my bugout bags right now getting some more."
303243,2,You will be inspired to actually cook in that coffee warmer.,I cook in my microwave now. This book is wonderful. There are great soup recipes. My favorite are Chicken Tortilla and Minestrone. All the vergetables are cover with directions on how to get the best flavors. This book also tells you what you cannot cook well in the microwave. And the price is fantastic! This is great for a first time cook too.
303294,2,irreplaceable avant-garde modern poet,"Michael Palmer's poetry is so unique, & always unsparingly brilliant. This might be the most important book of his career, since it collects so much essential poetry he wrote over such a long period of time, such a major proportion of his life. He's done a lot more different things in his poetry since this book, & in the time span this selection covers. But this book is so important to get to know Michael Palmer, & what he's done to 20th & 21st century poetry."
303318,2,A favorite!,"This book is a favorite for me and my 3 year old son. We love following the apple tree from winter to fall with the two sisters. They're growing ""the best part of apple pie"" right in their yard. It's help to teach him about the seasons as well as the process of growing something and the pride in having a hand in creating something. He is enthralled by the collage style illustrations and watching the baby robins grow up in the tree. A recipe for the apple pie is included at the end of the book, but we always use our own. We just bought a second copy of this book to give to my son's preschool library and the teachers and children both were thrilled for the new addition. Sure to be a classic!"
303349,2,My Daughter loves it!,"This toy keeps my 5 yr old daughter entertained for hours at a time. It doesn't just teach dance, it teaches good eating habits and a good attitude. We also have Cinderella Dancerella and Bella Dancerella Popstar which are also great! my daughter especially loves the music."
303363,2,cute and funny!,I've read most of this book so far and it would have been great to have when I was pregnant. My baby is almost 10 months old now and there is still info in there that was useful but alot of it was what I needed to know earlier. I loved her style of humor and the way she tells it like it is!
303388,2,virgin campari,"admittedly, campari is just better, but this stuff is a good substitute for those off the sauce.our order arrived promptly and unscathed."
303520,2,Schoenhut 25 key Elite Spinet with bench,I boughter for my daughters both love music and dance. I found in online web. They don't know how to play yet but they tried to learn by themself and like so much it's good product. Good for young age. [ASIN: Schoenhut 25 key Elite Spinet with Bench ]
303567,2,GREAT BOOK!,"This is one of the best true crime books I've ever read!! It follows the family from the parents' childhoods straight through. How Elaine Gere ever got through all this without falling apart, I will never know. It also highlights a huge crack in America's law enforcement. Michael Green should have been at the very least questioned about his suspicious activities hours before Brenda was murdered. Apparently, the cops couldn't be bothered. I read this book almost straight through at one time! I highly reccomend it!!"
303603,2,Works just fine,I got sick of cheapie products that break on the first use and decided to pay up a little more. This pump works great! Apparently you get what you pay for...
303612,2,Great Baby Animal,"I bought this toy for my little niece when she was born a year ago. Since then it has become her favorite toy. She likes the soft tusks of the walrus and loves the fact that it is soft and she can cuddle, or use it like a pillow. It is her 1st birthday next week, and my sister asked if I could get another one in case she looses this one."
303700,2,Tops my list of recommended books for physicians,"This is a terrific book full of good advice and practical suggestions. All the physicians and other health care professionals who attend my workshops on patient communications throughout the nation, have Joy Loverdes's book at the top of their recommended reading list. This is the most thorough and complete resource on the topic of eldercare that I have found. It should be kept handy on a nearby shelf for ready reference over the years! Joanne Desmond, President, Desmond Medical Communications. Author of ""Communicating With Today's Patient; Essentials to Save Time, Decrease Risk and Increase Patient Compliance"" Jossy-Bass, a Wiley Company, September 2000"
303782,2,Rock Solid Gameplay,"Links 2004 is a fairly decent golf game. You get to choose and design your player and then start off on a career. The controls are fairly easy and there's really no learning curve to this game. One you pass a few tests, new courses and tournaments open up. The one thing I didn't like were the announcers in this game. Their commentary is so choppy it gets annoying, fast.Despite the game's uneven presentation, Links 2004 is still a good choice. The game is not much different from Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004, but it's generally not as polished or feature-rich."
303811,2,Great Pants,"These pants are very comfortable. They are roomy with plenty of pockets to carry a lot of stuff, even a functional cell phone pocket. Amazon shipping cant be beat. I only live about 100 miles from an Amazon warehouse and I got it the next day with the free shipping. Great, just great. I dont know how they could be any better."
303819,2,Super 2 for 1 volume from Nora Roberts,"This was originally published in 1986, but it was re-released in 2002, when I discovered it. With this, I admit this was my first Nora Roberts read.Wow. I was hooked from the first page. I have read Second Nature many times over and over.Roberts' ability to show contrast within a character's psyche, appearance, expectation is superb.I also enjoyed the second part of this volume, One Summer, but it was Second Nature that hooked me.I have read several others of Roberts, and have the utmost respect for this highly talented, prodigious author in two genres.Superb.It was amusing for me to note that not all the reviews I read here were so positive.That only speaks to the ultimate nature of book reading and individual tastes.A sure winner for me."
303825,2,"I thoroughly enjoyed this book and corrosponding with the author, as I went","A lot was learned about the subject matter of Shed No Tears. It seems not all the facts of the era had been fully exposed, until the writing of this book. I also enjoyed learning the cast of characters. Some I dispised, some I fell in love with. To this day, I still think of them. I highly recommend it."
303862,2,I just love this record would love to see him in concert,"I have been looking to find this album especially ""are you the women"" I fell in love with song a long time ago I AM GOING to play it to death."
303880,2,"Worth getting,,,,,","This is definitly the upgrade from the previous Abba-Esque Cd that Erasure did,,,the mixes are pretty good,,except SOS,,, I liked the original one better,,,,,"
303897,2,Wonderful,I have always loved this movie. It is one of my favorite Christmas movies. Watching it makes one feel so good especially today when so many have such a bah humbug attitude towards Christmas.
303916,2,Great Teether Nuk,Our daughter loved this teether nuk when she was cutting her teeth. I loved that it is high grade silicone and is easily sanitized and cleaned in the dishwasher. It is a great product so I bought two.We are keeping them for the next one. I would recommend this teether.
303958,2,Pretty Good...,"The bearing kits were inexpensive, so I cannot complain much. The packaging was good, but I believe that one had been opened due to a missing pin. It did not create an issue as I had a replacement pin. Installation was drama free with all parts fitting well. Bearings appeared to be of good quality."
304020,2,botany,it's really great book with reasonable prices also the conditions of the book as mentioned in description!
304050,2,keeps getting better,i really love this easy to understand and descriptive book. I really learned how to take control of my girlfriend's pleasure and to give her wonderful orgasms. We use the book together to get into the different positions and extend each other's orgasms too. I've read the book a number of times and there is so much wonderful information that i learn some new little technique to add on to my love making skills each time. The one caveat that i have to say is that one has to practice the techniques till one can become a great lover but the practice is so much fun that one would have to be totally selfish not to enjoy it. a great read and wonderful pictures and a wonderful relationship. we are engaged to be married this spring.
304101,2,"Excellent, Excellent Book","Ms. Russell, your book is the best I have read dealing with grief. I have ordered several copies for my patients.Thank you."
304108,2,decent sound quality for a great price,"You can't go wrong with these speakers, especially for this price! These are good both for listening to music and playing computer games. The sub-woofer is powerful enough and the sound range is good enough for a casual listener. There ports on the right speaker to connect a headphone and an auxiliary device (IPod) which is really useful. Mine came with an IPOD stand which i really love since it saves my ipod from scratches and stuff. The build quality is pretty decent. A very well made product for a decent price, highly recommended!"
304168,2,No better ASP book,"This is the first ASP book I bought when I started to look for ASP for programmer. However, after I shopping another three books and scanning the ASP books that available in most bookstore, I am surprised to find out a truth: This book should be my last book. The rest book I bought are no better than this one!"
304179,2,An excellent compact history of an amazing carrier career,"Although I've never been in the service, I was able to tour the Coral Sea (sister ship) when I was young. I always wondered what it was like aboard one of these magnificent ships that came out of WW II. After touring the Midway in San Diego, I wanted to know more and this book delivers well, providing a compact and focused history on this particular ship. After touring the carrier museum, this was a very enjoyable read about the span of time that the USS Midway plied the seas as a US Navy warship. My hat's off to all of you who served aboard her and you are lucky that so many of us can see your ship right there in San Diego. (and of course, my hat is also off to Coral Sea sailors who as well as all those who serve our country.)"
304293,2,Great buy for gender neutral,"I purchased this book the week before I had my baby and I absolutely love it! I was looking for a baby book that had the first 5 years to fill in along with options for celebrations, stories about how mom and dad met, birth story, etc. It worked out great. You can remove and change around the pages and it also has lots of space to add pictures along with photo corners. I had trouble in stores trying to find a gender neutral book as we did not know what sex we were having and this cream/brown color worked out great! The ink pad for hand/foot stamping is also really nice as in the hospital they only stamped my daughter's feet and not her hands, so I was able to do that on my own at home without a big miss. I definitely recommend this baby book!!"
304333,2,Wonderful toy for a baby,"I love this bongo. It doesn't take much for the bongo to react to the baby's touch. It's a great cause and effect toy. My baby love it, too!"
304341,2,Great Book,"Hieroglyphs without Mystery describes a subset of the the Ancient Egyptian symbols through the use of printed text symbols and images of actual stone tablets discovered in Egypt. Cultural notes are given - where necessary- so that the reader is not bogged down with the language and retains interest in the subject. Instead of pouring out lists of symbols and proposed phonetics, the book slowly dishes a few symbols at a time, so that the reader gains a gradual understanding and can begin to read longer texts.The font itself is surprisingly large and easy to read in this small book and the photographs therein are both colour and black-and-white."
304389,2,Absolutely Prince,"Just got this CD for my birthday and cannot say how excited I am to own this. Prince and I are in the same age group and I've followed him since Rude Boy. It's funky, hip, soulful, inspirational and got that hard beat that only Prince could produce. It's brilliant and Prince being true to himself and giving us a glimpse into his mind again. Love it, love it, love it."
304435,2,Great..but,"Best way to purchase diapers ever!Not only I get free shipping with subscribe and save but also the price is great.Huggies are , in my opinion, and my baby's healthy skin is proof, the best diapers, easy for him to move and they really retain. No leaking at all, not the same with other brands.Didnt give 5 stars because Fedex requires signature at delivery and usually not at home, so at the end I always have to pick it up at their center.Good thing is really close to me."
304443,2,mix up,"after I had purchased product the shippers address change, I was a lil slow to figuring out how to find the pkg. seems the office failed to notify the apt tendant they had mail for them"
304444,2,best absorbing diapers!,I tried all the diapers that are out there BUT Huggies are the only ones i trust and love. I've used Huggies for both kids and wouldn't want it any other way. They stay dry with no leakage and they dont bulk up. Who could ask for a better diaper!
304460,2,Only diapers I use,"I love these diapers. No mess, they fit perfectly and this fuze box lasts my 17 month old boy a whole month."
304468,2,Chrome license plate frame,"Frame is high quality and looks great. Screw covers add to appearance, but are cheap plastic and the fit is loose. They will probably fall off at the carwash, if not sooner."
304520,2,WHAT!!!,"This was FAN TAS TIC, it brings back memories of house parties, jamming til the early morn'. My friends and family all want to borrow the CD's, I suggested they buy their own because it is an investment they won't regret. Loving and listening to it 24/7."
304686,2,Perfect Alternative to ceiling storage racks,"I have a rooftop carrier for my car and wanted to suspend it from the ceiling, but I didn't want to pay $50-60 for a ceiling storage rack. Why spend the extra coin when all I needed to do was get it out of the way and keep it there 50 weeks each year? So I picked up a pair of these straps and bought 4 eye lag bolts from the hardware store. Screwed in the lags to the ceiling joists in a rectangular fashion, evenly spaced apart and fed a strap through each pair, creating a pair of harnesses. Slid the carrier on the harnesses upside down so the flat side was facing the ceiling. Took up the slack and the car carrier is perfectly affixed to the ceiling, with no slack, nice and tight. Installation literally took 30 minutes, and most of that was measuring. With $5 straps and I think $3 for 1.5"" eye bolts, you are looking at an $8 solution. I'm going to buy another pair to suspend my window screens that we remove each winter."
304703,2,great pin,"I purchased this pin, even though it did not have all the details as the others its still a nice large pin to dress up yout t-shirts. the reason only 4 stars the color inside is not blue its a emerald or a x-mas green"
304727,2,Black And Blue:BackStreet Boys,I wanted to say that I got this album the day that it came out. Although I did like the other two albums... I think this one blows them away. They are finally maturing. They wrote some of their songs this time around and seem to cater to all sorts of people instead of just the teenage set. I like all the songs though as any album some are better then others. I am pleased to see that they didn't put out a record to be like the others but to set them apart. I am a Backstreet fan but my brother in law isn't and I think he liked it as much as I do. If you are a fan this is a must have. If you aren't its definately worth the listen.
304752,2,"Good price, new product, perfect transaction...","The power cord for my Dell Inspiron 8000 died, so I found this replacement product through Amazon Marketplace. I ordered this item from Sirius Trading. The item arrived within a few days, brand new and in the original packaging. It has worked perfectly since I bought it. I have no complaints and am completely satisfied with this purchase. I'd be happy to buy from Sirius Trading again."
304757,2,Why No CD?,"Like the others, I've been looking for this album which I owned years ago. It is hard to understand why there is no CD of this, or why iTunes or Amazon doen't offer it as MP3 downloads."
304793,2,"Good price, good sound, easy to use","I'm pleased with this clock radio. It's size is nice, small enough to travel with. The sound quality is quite good; although I'm no expert, I know what I like."
304854,2,Very good- Great find,"I too found this at Borders Books not long after Walk Line came out. As with all Cash compilation CD's there are some songs you will have two of if you have other greatest hits CD's eg. ""Walk the Line"", ""Hey Porter"" However there were a few that I don't have on any of my 25 other Johnny Cash albums such as ""Mean Eyed Cat"". It's a good album to get if you are starting to collect Johnny Cash's music in chronological order or just want a good collection of his early stuff. All in all a good Cd. However I got this for under $20 at Borders so you might want to check there first. Of course that was a while ago so I really don't know what it sells for now."
304955,2,looks really nice,"it looks really really really niceee! i love it o my dad, my boyfriend has one as well and i love it when he wears it :D they say is comfortable and u can use it where ever you go"
304968,2,love it!,I recently bought this MP3 player and I love it. It works great! It is my new walking buddy!
304973,2,With This Kiss,This was a great read. The love story was perfect and the author kept me guessing who the arsonist was till the end.
304984,2,A different setting for the usual adventure,"This episode reunites the familiar five: Julian, Dick, Anne, George and Timothy of course. This time, the group is forced by unexpected circumstances to leave Kirren cottage and go stay at Sooty LeNoir's home, a friend of the boys' from school. But Sooty's mysterious rambling house high above Smuggler's Top holds many secrets and the five plus Sooty and his little sister are soon deep within a hair raising adventure that includes smuglers, secret passageways, nasty tempered criminals and a mysterious marsh which would set anyone's spine atingle! This book is memorable for its unique setting and for Sooty's irreverent sense of humor. The ""curtain"" scene with Block alone make this book worth the read."
305006,2,USB for Voyager,"Product was as described, came very fast by mail. They way it fits in my phone is a little off even though it says it should fit. Over all it is a good product."
305012,2,works great!,"We bought this for a recent vacation to Walt Disney World at it was excellent! It was small and light enough to bring along everywhere. Worked on all high chairs. Even if we couldn't use all the velcro due to the high chair design, there was enough velcro in other places to make it stay put. Plus it is very easy to wipe clean. The toy straps are also a nice feature. Excellent value too."
305013,2,Utterly fantastic - in true Golden style.,"This is Eve Golden's best book yet, and that's saying a lot. While many Americans are unaware of Kay Kendall's short, but significant, career, Ms. Kendall's popularity over the pond remains unwavering. Her life story is told in a style true to Kendall's off-screen persona: funny, witty, sharp, and always interesting. As the subject matter could have ended up a cliched tearjerker with Kendall's death, Golden instead takes the high road. Highly recommended for any fan or Kendall's, Golden's, or movies in general."
305021,2,Any Time Is Time for Michael Buble,Michael you have created a movement with your take on music.I love how you interpret songs the way you do and how you make them fresh and revitalized and your own.Your duet with Nelly F. (I was not a fan of hers before this cut) is heaven sent. Never have I heard Quando Quando Quando sound this way and I love it.To hear Chris Botti providing his instrumental magic on Song for You just adds to an already magnificent compilation of music.All I could ever ask for is MORE MORE MORE!
305198,2,NICE-FOR THE PRICE,WORKS WELL FOR THE INTENDED PURPOSE.ONE SCREW WAS MISSING AND ONE WHEEL FALLS OFF WHEN MOVED.WE FOUND A WORKABLE SCREW IN THE GARAGE AND THE WHEEL DOESN'T MATTER SINCE WE DON'T INTEND TO MOVE IT MUCH.MATCHES THE OTHER FURNITURE WELL.
305264,2,An incredible study of sex through the ages!,"Dr. Gosline wrote the most provocative study of sex and culture that I have ever read. This is an incredible study that has something for everyone. It begins with a detailed evaluation of feminist and queer theory. Then I was led through a series of fascinating case studies. They not only reveal how gender roles are created in every society, but also provide a key to decoding the symbols that define those roles. This is an amazing theoretical work and practical guide to the Natufians of prehistoric Israel, ancient Egypt, India, Nigeria and even China. The research is as flawless as the conclusions are profound!"
305480,2,I don't know what to say,"I silently absorbed all of this work and just came away with such empathy it's very difficult to express it. It is a good manual to prepare you for such procedures. Too much to say about it, my words fail."
305491,2,Thoroughly enjoyed!,"Thoroughly enjoyed! We will deinitely include it in our programming on ""Lotsa A Cappella"" - Marjie Kennedy, Office Manager and Co-Host of Lotsa A Cappella - KDHX Radio, St. Louis."
305509,2,AWESOME GAME,"This game is awesome. If you like Simcity3000, or any games like that, you will love this game. It has so many options and every person has there own opinions on things. You can see what kind of job every person has, where they live how much they make per month, how happy they are, you can view there family tree, and check there age. They will grow old an eventually die. Your island needs soldiers for numerous reasons, so build up your military. There can be Coup de etats, where your army can turn on you. Your army will split up into two groups, the ones who like you, adn the ones who hate you. They will than fight. If your people dislike you enough they will turn to rebels, and when the rebellion is strong enough they will attaack your army. This is one of the best games out there, and it has unlimited options, even the cows have opinions on things! So if you liked the SimCities or games like those, definately buy this game."
305521,2,"Were Taking Over The World, Come On Baby Now!","For those who might not know Bobby Conn, he's a powerhouse from Chicago with one kickass band.Music stylisticly ranges from disco to punk, progresive to pop, glam to jazz ect... This collectionwas recorded live so it has more of a rockin edge to it. For those who Know who he is, you know that the songs are great, full of appocolyptic visions, social commentaries,and toung in cheek innuendos,all delivered by one of the most visionary songwriters in the biz. The disk's sound is a little distorted on some tracks, but so was the room it was recorded in. Yes, I was there on the first nights show. You can hear me'woo hoo hooing thru the whole thing and I even made it on the live video track. Im the large guy in the blue shirt and glasses. Anyway,it was a very small show in a recording studio,40 or 50 people in all and im just glad to have been a part of it. Check it out ! 4 ouy of 5 for the distortion."
305587,2,Good!,The first person to review this could not have known how the game was because it wasn't out to buy yet. It is probably going to be a great game!
305609,2,This CD by Myriam Hernandez is exquisitly crafted: a jewel !,"Myriam Hernandez has created a masterpiece with her latest album; ""Todo el Amor"" is a beautiful piece of art, and a showing of Spanish romantic love songs at its very best. Some songs are especially remarkable, such as ""Deseo"" by Monica Naranjo, and that Myriam Hernandez interprets with a peculiar blending of erotic yet romantic song to her lover. Most impressing of all, is a song written for a woman and sung by a wonderful singer. ""Huele a Peligro"" is a sure hit, and ""No Puedo Olvidarte"" is an ode to a long-gone yet unforgivable love. In a nutshell, this album will remain a best-seller and a classic for years to come. I highly recommend this elegant piece of romantic pop by a remarkably mature yet sensitive artist."
305641,2,Beautiful and deeply moving.,"Not only does Annerino write beautifully, but the stories he told provide a much-needed human perspective on migrants who risk their lives to come here from Mexico. Those who are critical of migrant workers seem not to realize that they are hard-working, honest people who are dedicated to feeding their families by doing work Americans don't want to do. Annerino's account of the ""killing fields"" was deeply moving."
305653,2,An Extraordinary Work,"Mr. Suskind has given a serious peek behind the scenes in the Bush White House through the eyes of an extraordinary man, Paul O'Neill. It is not a pretty sight. We find out they began planning the War in Iraq days after taking office. And that they've squandered the budget surplus on tax breaks that have not stimulated the economy (against the advice of their leading economists). The most disturbing insight has to do with President Bush. The picture that is painted is one in which he has little if any insight into the world and the issues around him. He has surrounded himself with idealogues. Mr. O'Neill is an amazing man with an unbelievably gifted mind who is not afraid to tell the truth. Every American should read this book before they cast their ballot next November. It may be THE MOST IMPORTANT BOOK OF THE YEAR."
305657,2,Not a bad little comp,"Basically a comp of late 80s New York Hardcore with some classics here such as Warzones ""As one"" and tracks by Nausea and Supertouch 2 of probably the most underrated New York Hardcore bands ever.Yeh the comp does include Blue Pride by Youth Defense League and they are pretty much well known as being (at least) fence walkers at worst a Nazi band that just hid their beliefs while in New york but had them pretty open outside.Whatever the truth (and yeh, on their thanks sheet YDL do mention thanks to Skrewdriver so that should go some way to pretty much closing the whole ""Are they arent they"" debate) but there is nothing racist or far right on this comp. The YDL song is about working class pride.Considering this comp was put together by guys from YOT and Revelation you would have thought that they would have been more responsible but oh well."
305664,2,Ally McBeal: Songs From Ally McBeal,This is an awesome soundtrack it is enjoyable and fun to listen to. the best songs on this soundtrack are all of them if you have not listened to this soundtrack then i recommend you do
305721,2,A book by an E.C. fan with insight and taste,"To be perfectly honest, I've spent all of 15 minutes looking at this book in a comic shop less than 20 minutes ago, but I can tell you it's good. Whole stories have been reprinted (photographed from printed comics rather than from original art, but the reproduction is good), as well as individual panels and examples from other aspects of their careers. Each artist is well represented with his best work, and the images are chosen with knowledge and taste. The biographies are well researched, giving an overview of each artist's career arc. I could lay in bed for hours looking at this thing, and I intend to."
305743,2,Excellent Material!!!,I loved these books. They are SO helpful and have contributed to me being able to raise well behaved kids that are a JOY to be with!!
305832,2,"Works fine, but a little wobbly","It does not fit all legs well and stacks of two make a wobbly support. However, for ""normal"" use the bed does not fall over. Even the kids have not caused the bed to tumble over. It seems the design could be better, but it works."
305836,2,Carbohydrate Addict's Life Span Program,"Very informative book.When instructions are followed, it does cut my cravings for carbohydrate foods.I would recommend this book to anyone struggling with weight problems."
305840,2,"very readable, leaves somes questions unanswered. but works","Although there is much to read before you get to the actual ""diet"", it is very different and well worthwhile. For each one of us who has dieted many times in the past, and previously was successful, but no longer seems to lose weight, this book offers both insight and hope.Some questions remain because portions are undefined, and left to us, but they all have to be equal portions on the plate.I'm not starved or craving carbohydrates, and after 2 weeks hope this will be my diet for a life time."
305844,2,An excellent theoretical and practical introduction to mediation.,"With clear and concise language and content throughout, McCorkle and Reese have crafted a great introductory text to the theory and practice of mediation. I read the book in preparation for a graduate level symposium on mediation and found the book prepared me with a thorough grounding in both the hows and whys of mediation practice from pre-mediation preparation to the writing of agreements and post-mediation concerns. I would recommend it to anyone studying mediation or conflict management and anyone interested in learning more about how or why mediation is done."
305866,2,A Glimpse into a Bizarre World,Mao lived a life that appears to have insulated him from much of the destructive consequences of his ideas. He appears to have spent much of his leisure time fornicating with young women and sleeping. This first hand account really gives you the inside scoop on Mao's behavior.I had an old friend who many years ago recommended that we invite all the communist leaders to New York for a big meeting--and then arrest all of them. A civilized world would have terminated Mao after the Long March.
305931,2,Amazing,"Disney has outdone itself with this composition. Having just come back from the millenium celebration this CD helps me relive the magic. To be able to bring home Illuminations 2000 and listen to it on a whim is wonderful. This orchestration is definitley one of the most stirring that I have heard in a long time. I would recommend this cd to anyone, no matter what their music tastes are."
305955,2,Exceeded expectations!!,"After listening to ""Dolphin's Cry"" infinate times before Distance to Here came out, I knew I would get the CD, but didn't know if I'd be totally happy with it (it's my first and only (for now) Live CD). I was WAAAAY happy with my purchase! The first 6 tracks or so are the best, the rest are a little weak, but the CD is worth the money just for ""Run to the Water,"" ""Dolphin's Cry,"" and ""Sparkle."" You WON'T be disappointed with this cd!"
305968,2,I Thought This Film Had Been Lost Forever,"I had never heard of this story or the film when I happened to watch it by accident on PBS late at night by myself over 25 years ago. It was such an incredible story. I still remember it to this day. I was going to go to bed, but I couldn't leave my TV set - I was transfixed by the story.Until I read this website and the other reviews, I had no idea why I never saw the movie again.The release of this DVD after so many years makes me grateful that this extraordinary movie has not been lost, that I wasn't the only one who thought he saw something really unusual, and that now others can see it too."
306275,2,100% as described,"This is the 2oz version of the small R-0871 that comes with the Taylor test kits. Same great reagent, larger bottle."
306333,2,I like this book,"This book is awesome and you are going to have to read everyone of the books there is Kate's Turn, Kates Return, Following Kate, and now Sabrina and Kate. I love these books they are awesome examples to me. If you want to hear about real live people read these books they are so real. Even thought they are fiction."
306373,2,great for under two,"I bought these books for my daughter and she just loves them. Plus, they're so easy for her to handle since they are board books. She loves to just sit in her chair and ""read"" them by herself too."
306385,2,Great value for the money - padding is great!,"A friend of mine purchased a higher-end Total Gym through the infomercial web-site about 10 years ago and has encouraged me to get one for years. Not knowing whether or not I would really stick with a program, I didn't want to spend a lot of money. (I paid $169.99 with free Super Saver Shipping.)When I found this particular option, my biggest concern was that the padding on the glide board might not be thick enough to be comfortable. To my great surprise, the padding is more than adequate for my sensitive body (I feel like the ""Princess and the pea""). Not only that, it is much better padding than what is on the one my friend purchased (and paid much more money for 10 years ago.) I wish it was configured for the squat board (so I could borrow my friend's attachment) but, I still can't complain considering the low price I paid for this!"
306424,2,Best 1910 Fruitgum Co. reissue,"Another in the series of bubblegum music compilations recently done by the resurrected Buddah label (now Buddha). The 1910 FGCo was another in the collection of 60's bubblegum music machines created by Kasenetz and Katz. 1910 FGCo had the greatest string of hits and a lot of the catchiest and most memorable tunes of the genre.This collection contains all their top-100 hits plus selected material from their albums. If you're a fan of 1910 FGCo's style of bubblegum, this is the best album of the bunch. All the tracks are in true stereo with the exception of ""Reflections From The Looking Glass"" and the sound quality is the cleanest of any compilation on the market.This is the one to get - and the price is another plus."
306512,2,great! nice and small for travel,"As a trombonist, I bought this to adjust the screw at the end of my water key which has a habit of coming loose. It's small and compact, so it fits in my case nicely and works great!"
306562,2,Works Great,"Dipped in, pulled out, very clean! Did what was supposed to do. Silverware looks great. Can't really say anything more that hasn't already been said."
306605,2,Great set,This set is. Great the crimpers are awesome the punch down tool isn't amazing but it works. Great set for the price.
306608,2,"Good, But Not Perfect","Gyo Vol. 2 has some great moments as well as some weak ones. The story continues and builds to a head, but in the process there were a couple of chapters that seemed out of place and pointless (the circus chapters). The whole story line for Gyo is excellent though in the ""what the heck is the author smoking?"" Which is the reason I love Junji Ito's stuff. Gyo isn't quite as powerful as Uzumaki in my opinion, but also quite good.The first of the two short stories also included sucks. Completely forgettable. The second though, is a master piece in my opinion. Probably the best part of the book, and that's not to knock Gyo at all either. The one thing about the last short story is I feel the last page is unnecessary..."
306729,2,Super small space heater,"The unit is somewhat contemporary in style, and altho' not small, seems to work well with any style of furniture and does not appear obtrusive.The thermostatic control allows you to make fine adjustments so that with the two levels of power that the unit offers, it's fairly economical to operate. It really does the job!"
306736,2,Wide-Ranging and Super Informative,"The Handbook of Strategic Public Relations and Integrated Communications is a thorough piece of work that covers the entire gamut of the public relations industry, from dealing with clients to dealing with the media, from crises to working with marketing.An extremely useful guide, it is not quite as up-to-date with the latest in the technological age. For that, Michael Levine's Guerrilla PR: Wired is an excellent supplement. Not as wide-ranging as the Handbook, Guerrilla PR: Wired zeroes in on cost-effective public relations strategies and tactics.The Handbook of Effective Public Relations and Integrated Communications has numerous well-respected members in the public relations and marketing fields contributing their wisdom and experience, letting everyone know what the higher ranking people have learned, the tools to success."
306789,2,Iconic Classic,"I wore out my previous copy, and paperbacks are so easy to carry about! This book is Ray Bradbury at his best: thoughtful, goodhearted, interesting and surprising. Both a deep vision of its time, and everlastingly readable."
306799,2,Highly recommended.,"If ""A Burden of Silence"" doesn't tug at your heart strings, nothing will. Nancy Draper's story will remind you that people with AIDS need love too. No one with AIDS should have to suffer in silence. This book honors the memory of her mother."
306933,2,slowest nipple that my baby likes,"I like the avent nipples because they don't deform like the medela ones. I haven't tried many nipples since he seemed to do fine on these. These are the newborn flow ones and although they are the slowest, it's still not slow enough. I'm trying to breast feed and sometimes he just gets impatient with me (I have a low supply) and wants the bottle. Sometimes I oblige depending on how loud he is and how tired I am.But these are easy to clean and switch out too. I bought these to put into some ""2"" nipples I had since I got a set of these avent bottles."
307016,2,Clear Skin magic,My son asked me to purchase this product for him. I'm happy to say that in less than 30 days his skin has improved remarkably. WE are both very impressed.
307139,2,Lovely,I love it! The very next day after I gave birth to my beautiful daughter I wore it. It's so comfortable I sleep with it and do just about everything in it. It squeezed at first but remember it is meant to keep everything in shape so it will have to feel tight at first or you will look bulgy. The size chart was right for me. Needless to say a week later and I'm almost back to my old self. It firmed my stomach quicker.
307154,2,Excellent Microwave,"It comes only in white color and it is probably its only drawback. I am using it every day and what a great tool! It is the best microwave I ever had. And let me also mention ""it is the quickest!"" It does not have a sensor for those who are looking for this feature but I personally don't care not having it. In one sentence I simply love and recommend it to everyone. :)"
307247,2,Great Camera Bag,It is a roomy camera bag. I have a A570 Canon camera and it has all the room I need for the camera and accessories. It's a great bag.
307271,2,The game that dominates my day,It is great! But only if you are a collecter as well as a boardgame fan. Upgrades are quite expensive.
307326,2,Tight,"This is a tight CD from Artillery, this kinda reminds me of the old school Memphis rap that come out in the mid 90's."
307329,2,Great disks,I have been using these disks for years and I hardly ever get a bad one. I also like the + as the computer doesn't need to finalize the disk.
307363,2,Fun Fun Fun,"My daughter is now 21 months old and she stills enjoys dancing with the songs this toy makes, not to mention creating unique animals with the different halves of the bodies. We've had it since she was 15 months. We also have the alphabet one too. I have given this as a gift. I would highly recommend it!"
307536,2,"A definite ""desert island"" pick!","This band is my ALL-TIME favorite, and this CD is absolutely perfect...every track touches me in a different way. These guys are so talented, and their music is real. I have turned a lot of people onto this band and guarantee you'll love them, too!!"
307584,2,15 Minutes Alone With God,"Book is in like new, great condition. This is a well written book, excellent for reading during individual quiet time or time of prayer."
307647,2,"great, wonderful...","I think this book is a great primer and introduction to healthy eating and also has all that you need to know to just go ahead and do it! Some of the recipes in the book are quite ""American specific"" but it is also pretty clear how they can be adapted to other cuisines and countries because the rest of the book is so clear about the basics of this way of eating... Lots of information, easy to read, i bought it for my father who is facing some health problems ( I am a long time low fat vegan myself already.... ) but read through it first and enjoyed it..."
307700,2,A very informative book about Polish Aces.,"This is fascinating history. Polish aces made a significant contribution to the RAF's efforts to fight the Germans. This book gives those significant details. Aviation enthusiast will find out why Polish pilots had one of the highest kill-loss ratios in the ETO. They will find that the Polish Air Forde was not detroyed on the ground in September, 1939 but went on to combat the Germans to the end of the war. The Battle of Britain information is especially informative."
307704,2,"A short, loud, urgent warning","Little by little the skeptics of global warming are falling away. Let's hope this brief and very persuasive book shakes loose a few more of them, because Kolbert, an unbiased reporter and one of the best non-fiction writers of English today, makes it clear that the time to act on anthropogenic climate change is ten years ago. Were it not that the subject matter is inherently depressing, this book would be a sheer pleasure to read---and as it is, it can and should be read by everyone who has a middle school diploma. If you are considering buying it, stop reading the reviews right now and make the purchase. Then read it and pass it on."
307752,2,Reluctant to try at first and...,"They left me puzzled. I had my dad bring me these when visiting on a weekend he said ""what would you like me to get, I am going grocery shopping"" I asked him for Smores Pop-tarts. He came back with these and said, ""sorry no smores"" :( So I said ""oh that's ok, I'll try them, no worries""I loved them, I do not normally like fruity pop-tarts but this is something in between. They don't have that ""sour"" taste the fruit ones have, it is more in between. If strawberry milkshake was this good, I'd probably would drink it more often :)"
308081,2,Quik is da name!!,"Good producer, Good rapper, Phat album. Quik stepped up his rap game for real on this CD it makes u wonder if someone ghost wrote.....The beats are typical Quik trks so if u are familiar with him u will be satisfied. He has a trk on the album that he speaks on his homey mausberg death and it is so tiiight!!! Matter of fact it made the source hip-hop quotable....Albums like this deserve more spotlight because Quik put some work in on this one. This album doesn't make u feel like a ""vic"" after u buy it and hear it. Like some of this crap out there now. If u have been a quik fan since the past u will luv this, if u are new to quik u will want to buy some of his older stuff. Hotep!!!"
308171,2,Well thought out,"The box is made of molded plastic, which some may see as ""flimsy"" or ""cheap."" Truth be told, this material works well in that it won't rust and is light to carry. The case is well thought out in that you can carry all complimentary tools to your chainsaw within the ample sized case. The side of the case folding out is just genius, this helps with loading the saw into the case immensely. Easy to slide in and the built in tool cutouts are held with fantastic positive resistance.The only down side is that the box is tall. Although, I would never consider that a negative, especially when the large majority of chainsaws never leave the property or garage.Would definitely recommend, it is a very cheap way to protect your saw!"
308244,2,"Excellent on technique, good recipes, no ego","This is one of the best bread books. All the space others devote to photos and ego is given over to solid tested recipes and really good information on technique in this one.Don't be put off by the fact that Hamelman includes three versions of each recipe, one sized for bakery yield, one sized for home use, and one in between. Just keep your eyes on the righthand column and follow the home version.Especially good on variations of rye. Just buy this one. More value than some of the higher-falutin competition."
308262,2,Great little doll for toddlers,"My 22 month old grand daughter was in love with this ""first"" baby doll. It was just the right size for a little girl. It smells yummy (vanilla) and she loved that the eyes closed when she laid the baby down."
308309,2,Impressive.,"I'm impressed with the research that went into this book... The problem I have with ""living on Internet time"" is that no one ever gets deep into an issue or a problem. These authors have managed to do it, and the result is a book that comes up with a believable ""big picture"" of the new economy. The business models that they describe are clear and practicable, and the research is detailed. Certainly helpful and perhaps even vital reading for any businessperson interested in the internet - and if you're not interested, WHY NOT?"
308315,2,"Challenging yes, but not so much for STRONG builders","I bought these for my 9 year old son with the 125 peice explorer pack. I am sure these cards are difficult but my son did not find them overly challenging. He does have a STRONG mind for this kind of thing and was a bit dissapointed they were not so challenging for him. So, if your child is building masterpieces with wedgits allready,and seems to piece these masterpeices together with out much of a problem, he/she may not find these cards too much of a challenge, although like me, YOU or other family members may."
308579,2,Perpetual Commotion,"WE LOVE THIS GAME!!! It is very fast-paced and fun. We have purchased the expansion packs as well, so that we can have LOTS of people playing at the same time."
308600,2,coast to coast,some people complained about the album sounded too east coast.i agree.it's just like russell simmons the show was mostly sounding west coast.i guess both albums was trying to say is that it does'nt matter what coast you're from it's ALL good music.or maybe that's what I'M saying.
308702,2,One of my favorites.,"Peter Sellers simple (almost autistic) character gives insight via his simple observations. Reminds me of the biblical quote, something about ""wisdom from the mouths of babes""."
308780,2,art supplies to go with easel,I bought this set of art supplies to go with the easel for my Granddaughter for Christmas. It was nice because everything a child would need to paint with is in this set. She's having lots of fun with it.
308928,2,Still a great TV series,Even with the canned generic misical background it is still worth the cash to revisit this great TV series. If you loved the show for it's situational comedy (and Jenninfer) you'll still love it!
308960,2,it works,It was what I expected. Paint coming off tip of one needle. But works fine. no complaints. this word count is rediculous.
308978,2,"Holy crap, what the hell is this?","I'm sorry but these guys are really impressive. Necrophagist are one of the fastest, most furious death metal bands on the planet. Amazing time signature and tempo changes, a lightspeed guitarist and bassist (he's a hell of a shredder too) and an incredibly technical drummer make Epitaph one damn fine album. True the vocals are a bit cookie cutter (as in cookie monster), oh well, its death metal. The musicianship and songwriting are topnotch though and somewhat melodic if not wholly original. I detect some definite Morbid Angel influence, but even in their heyday MA never played with such ferocity. Necrophagist even quote a bit of Montagues and Capulets from Prokofiev's ballet Romeo and Juliet at the end of Only Ash Remains. Pretty Cool."
309003,2,AN ENCHANTING STORY,"Joe Delacamp couldn't believe his eyes.Louisa, the love of his life had made it to Erie, as they had talked about so many years ago.Was it fate that had finally brought him here? Louisa seemed to have made a life for her self in the place they had dreamed about coming to.But the bigger shock was the green-eyed little boy that called Louisa mama. When had she had a child. Just after leaving him?He didn't know about his interfering mother's plan to save him and his career. Yet Louisa had always rested in the back of his mind.Maybe he had a chance with her and their son if he took it slow. He had to gain Aaron's trust and Louisa's heart as he had never stopped loving her.This was a beautiful love and reunion story with dreams come true.Definitely Recommended --"

309140,2,Very Cool!,This movie is one of the best. Goku comes back Finally! It took him forever. The sadest part is when Vegeta Dies. A most buy Video.
309152,2,The Best Candy Ever,This is my favorite all time candy ever. It has all the best characteristics I ever would want soft chewy and sour. This is a must buy if your in love with these kinds of food like I am.
309160,2,A little heavier than I would have liked,It looks and feels great. powerfull and all the things I want in a jigsaw but a little on the heavy side. Maybe it needs to be so to make it durable. I don't regret getting it and will enjoy the radius cut features the most. Black and Decker started out as a cheap product and has developed in a reliable and affordable solution!
309171,2,Typical of most children- LOVE THIS BOOK!,"I think this book is typical of many children- and also the ""REAL"" way parents react in similar situations with their own children. It is a bit difficult to read aloud the first few times- but I'm a real pro at it now and have ""BOBBY's"" character down so well when I read to my boys! He's a real character. The ending- is rather odd- he eats his parents because he becomes a lion in disguise."
309202,2,Best thing I got!,"My daughter loved this swing! Motor gets a little loud when the batteries need changing, but that wasn't an issue for me. Very easy to change swing positions, love the sounds/music, daughter loved trying to catch the fish on the mobile. Perfect spot for her be when I was alone and needed to run to the bathroom or even take a shower, make dinner, etc. Don't know how I would have lived without it. Ended up buying a second one for the in-laws. Very easy to put together, take apart and take the cover off to wash."
309220,2,Good lens for a good price,"It seems like a reasonably priced filter. I don't see that much difference with the filter, but I haven't taken too many outside pictures with it. I was pleased with price and delivery."
309228,2,THE best for trigger point self massage!,"Trigger point massage is a powerful technique for pain relief as well as recovering one's mobility. The shape of the theracane is ideal for self-massaging the difficult places like back, shoulders and buttocks, and almost unreachable muscles like subscapularis and psoas. Its shape allows for easily applying pressure especially on the back of the body without a lot of effort. The material is sturdy and not cold (important if your trigger points are irritated). The theracane works great in sitting position as well as lying down on top of it, using one's own body weight to provide the required pressure, especially for the back, the back of the shoulders and the buttocks. I strongly recommend the books authored by Clair Davies about trigger points and frozen shoulder to be used with the theracane: [...]"

309311,2,Waterloo toold box,I was thinking of giving this toolbox 4 stars but 5 suits it just right. I love this toolbox it's perfect size not too heavy and it fits in the back seat of my car without taking too much space.
309340,2,simply the best,"I think, this is the best recording of Bruckner's ""Phylosophical"" 6th Symphony. It is majestic.This is the first recording of new constitued New Philharmonia Orchestra. I don't disturb the tempi of Klemperer and I don't think same as the other rewievers who are dissapointed. Because, this is a last period recording of Klemperer, and already his tempi are generally not normal. Because, according to him music must be articulated cleanly and it must have breathe. The tempi decided by circumstances... And the performance of orchestra is very good. The famous espressivo themes of strings played with emotion and amazing brass sections are majestic. The second movement is one of the composer's most beautiful slow movements. There is an excellent example of counterpoint, which means Bruckner's hommage and love to Renaissance music.This is a legendary recording. Highly recommended."
309347,2,the best at end of era,This story casts an eerie vale with excellent foreshadowing and strange musical score. For a fan of the series this is the single most important episode and possibly the best of all. Physicists and mathematitions will get a kick out of the tech ideas and fans will see the best of Baker in play.
309352,2,"Gas Burners for Forges, Furnaces, and Kilns","Very good book, it's a must as far as I can see for all begginers of Gas Forges, Furnaces and Kilns. It will even show a D.I.Y burner System great or sombody who wants to do a custom job Burner for themselfs or friend."
309376,2,Decent dvd,"This is a halloween special of Chris Angel. Although it isn't as long as I was hoping, it delivers an entertaining experience."
309396,2,The work of a lifetime!,"Nothing sounds or feels like this dark masterpiece. The sheer majesty of the song cycle, all about the deaths of 2 people who were in Lou's Life, is remarkable.Even though the subject matter is very dark, one feels Lou coming through the pain, as if reborn and filled with acceptance of the deaths he had faced.From the opening chords of ""Dorita"" thru to ""Power & Glory"", and ""Power & Glory Part 2"", this is a very powerful and authentic piece of work.Highly recommended!"
309414,2,Great Christmas CD By Brenda Lee !,"Brenda Lee makes it Christmas for me.With her mature raspy voice I just love the style and way she does these songs.A nice addition to her original 1964 Christmas album available as The Best Of Brenda Lee The Christmas Collection.Particular favorites are,Rockin'Around The Christmas Tree',Santa Claus Is Coming To Town,Go Tell It On The Mountain,Silver Bells,Let It Snow ! Let It Snow ! Let It Snow !,and Have Yourself A Merry little Christmas.These are all recorded in the 1990's so are not the younger voiced Brenda Lee.I love them because they offer a difference from the l960's Brenda Lee recordings.Brenda Lee fans will love this CD !"
309452,2,"Good Intro to TH, but you need RiL and SMS","Essential Songs that are Missing: Born Under Punches, The Girls want to be with the girlsBest Song: Life During Wartime (live)Worst Song: PopsicleBest Bonus Track: Lifetime Piling Up (essential th track)Buy this album first: Stop Making Sense (and the dvd)Also check out: Look into the Eyeball by David Byrne"
309481,2,A must have resource,"As an art teacher who has taught at all level from elementary to high school, this is a very valuable resource. I have been a subscriber for 7 years and still have every issue. Whenever I am looking for new ideas for my classes, I turn back to my past issues and always find a great project. One of the best for our field."
309554,2,A wonderful series,A lot has already been said about this book & I just wanted to give it the 5 stars I feel it's due. The Harry Potter series has become so famous it's just amazing. People young & old going bonkers for books! I love it! She created something special & magical. She had to end her series somehow & she tied things up rather nicely. I think she could continue this story if she wanted to but that's all I'll say in case you haven't read the book. Go out & get yourself a copy. Sit down & get lost in the pages! It's way better than TV any day of the week!
309576,2,Must read,"I'm keeping my Harry Potter reviews brief because I doubt there are few people left who haven't read them. Let me just say...if you haven't given them a try yet, I highly recommend you do. These are books are a fun, magical journey from the youngest to the oldest reader. Don't miss out on this instant classic!"
309586,2,Excellent job,I can write and babble on and on about this book but that'll be lost time. So I'll get to the limelight of my review:1 This book deserves SIX stars.2 What does Hermione has to do to get Ron's attention?P.S. One more to go
309589,2,Intriging and riveting,"I enjoyed all the HP books but must of all HP VI, My son got me hooked on the HP books when they first one came out and I await each release, but the HP Vi was the most exciting, Harry getting so close but yet so far.He is usually always right about Malfoy, why didn't his friends believe him this time until it was to late is what I would like to know.K. SmithSallisaw, OK"
309612,2,Better than average for spot cleaning,"If you've got a pet, you have a need for a machine to clean up those nasty ""accidents."" There are a lot of spot cleaners on the market and I've tried many of them, including the ""green machine."" This device has some advantages over some other machines. It's easy to assemble and store. I like that it's corded (and comes with a very long cord). I've given up on cordless vacs; they just don't cut the mustard. The Spotlifter is easy to use. I tried it on a couple of old pet stains that my carpet cleaner failed to get up. To my surprise, it lifted these old stains."
309649,2,Exquisite!,"I love this creamer and sugar bowl - they are just beautiful! And I've actually used them in some of my highly realistic oil paintings as I love painting reflections. This set reflects items nearby, wonderfully well, and of course, we love using this creamer and sugar bowl!"
309650,2,very good,Tastes decent and gives you a little bit of energy. My only complaint is that it takes so much to make a strong cup.
309688,2,Frieling Stainless Insulated French Press,"We have been using a different French Press and always disappointed in how remainder of coffee cools off. The Frieling French Press works great! Plunger feels secure and keeps grounds from floating about. Taste of coffee is spectacular - wonderfully rich flavor. By the way, remaining coffee in pot stays hot for about another hour at most -- long enough to keep us happy."
309711,2,Empowering and Entertaining,"This book is really fun to read. And when you feel lousy during a break up, that alone makes it worth the money.They have a great way of taking all of the thoughts and behaviors that we are going through when our hearts are broken and presenting them in such a way that all you can do is laugh at yourself. Then you realize that what you're doing and thinking is ridiculous, not productive and not cute at all. The book is very blunt, but not in a mean way. They are helping us to become 'break-up warriors'!!very motivating...inspiring...funny...self-esteem boosting"
309716,2,better than the last one!,"I read He's Just Not That Into You, which I thought was ok but not mind-blowing in any way.It's Called a Breakup Because It's Broken is far exceeded my expectations. I read it cover to cover in one sitting and felt an immediate surge of empowerment. The tone of the book is kind and supportive, yet firm. It can be hard to read at times because I felt, as I'm sure other readers have too, that I recognize my thoughts, reactions, and feelings in the stories of the women in the book. It's kind of shocking to see how so many people share these same painful experiences. But I think the valuable messages of the book is this: if one person thinks a relationship is over, what the hell are you trying to save? If one person doesn't think a relationship is worth fixing, then there IS no relationship worth fixing. And Greg urges us to handle the breakup with dignity. I only wish I had read this book a few months earlier!"
309736,2,Fantastic poster for my boys!,"I pinned this poster in my boys homework room along with the periodic tables and other ""must have"" science posters. Yes, I am a nerd."
309799,2,Ah-mazing,"I thought that this was a great way to start off a great series!!! Massie's character is a bit to mean to Claire, but the end of the book makes you want to read the next book, ""Best Friends for Never"". I would recommend this book to girls between the ages of 12 and 18. It also all depends on the type of personality the reader has. A girl into fashion and drama would totally enjoy this book!"
309805,2,Joe Temperley on baritone- nice!,"this is a lovely album... very pleasant... and my introduction to Joe Temperley. He is a top bari man, and I think has been in the Ellington band at times. Either way, he's in his wheelhouse here... he is a very tasteful, toneful player and with Ellington melodies and songs to work with you have great material played by great players... a high recommendation and I'm on the lookout for more Joe Temperley stuff..."
309836,2,A Catholic Treasure!,"As a cradle Catholic in the tumultuous and exciting process of re-discovering my own Catholic faith, Thomas Howard's book is an absolute treasure! I read this book with alternating tears of gratitude and tingles of awe, and whenever I put it down I had to pick it up again within minutes to get more. At first I was inclined to scoff at the comparisons of Howard with C.S. Lewis, but I found they are quite accurate. Howard has the passion, elequence and grace of Lewis combined with a love for the Catholic faith (but with no antagonism for non-Catholic questions or (mis)understandings). The review by David Thomas was spot-on when he compared this book to a love poem. I mean it quite sincerely when I say that every Catholic, and every person interested in the Catholic faith, would do themselves a great service by reading this fabulous and inspiring book."
309845,2,Lou saves our lives with rock & roll......,"For some, the VU's swan-song is a much despised cop-out from the band that just 3 years before immortalized drag-queens and low-lifing in their noise-addled songs. For others, 'Sweet Jane' was their classic rock introduction to the group. Whichever. 'Loaded' is more of a blueprint to Lou Reed's turbulent and frequently uneven solo career, as this barrel-scraping double LP proves. The album itself is quite irresistable, full of pop-rock gems with just a slant of the sinister (such as the rueful 'New Age'). For anyone who has disregarded it in the past, it bears a fresh listen with different ears....."
309901,2,Don't know what to do without it,"I build staircases and handrails have always been a problem especially the bead profiles and deep coves. I bought the dremel 6000-01 3 months ago and have been thrilled with its performance. On small beads, the lower speeds work best. On the large round parts and deep coves, the higher speeds work well. The selection of profiles has satisfied my every need, and the small flat sanding pad gets in where regular sanders just won't fit. The Sanding Tubes seemed to be a real turn off, but as I used them they really are a magnificent solution to a difficult problem. The motor is small and I was amazed at how quickly and accurately it formed beads. I would highly recommend this tool."
309917,2,You'll want a joystick,"This was also my first introduction to multiplayer gaming. A fully 3-D environment in which one can become completely immersed. You'll want a joystick to play this one as there are a LOT of controls to manipulate. Definitely dated, but still a blast to play."
309943,2,I love this group!,This is a great group of 7 guys. They love the Lord and know how to show it. I love to listen to their CD's!
309984,2,New Yogi,"Judith Lasater's book is about the type of yoga I was longing for, so I bought the book and commenced to teach myself. Restorative yoga is a wonderful art and Lasater's book covers the practice in the most thorough comprehensive way. There are suggestions for creating your own props from household blankets, pillows, etc. pictures, cautions, benefits. A treasure. Even better, I have since found a studio that offers this type of yoga on a regular basis, and my book is always here forfurther learning, enjoyment, and reference. One of my best purchases from Amazon."

310152,2,Great full coverage bra,I love this style and have bought it for years. I am a 34D and the coverage and lift is GREAT! No cleavage bulges or 'bumps' under a T-shirt -- which is so important for a smooth appearance!
310166,2,"Introducing the reader to over 150 creative, legal, playful, and insightful ""highs""","Wise Highs: How To Thrill, Chill, And Get Away From It All Without Alcohol Or Other Drugs by Alex J.

310206,2,"All does it ""All""","I love never having to go to Costco again! Having these heavy products delivered to my front door is worth the money. Plus, the containers are smaller and easier to manage. Oh yes, it cleans the clothes and smells great."
310254,2,China Streetsmart: A Fantastic Endeavor into Business China,"I am currently reading this book for the second time and can safely say that this book is unlike any other that I have read. The information is layed out in an organized fashion and is filled with real-life experiences and situations that the author, Mr. Chan has dealt with in his extensive experience in the business world of China.It is a great book for college students, professionals and seasoned managers. Highly recommended!!!"
310278,2,This game is fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"I have no clue what people have against this game.Great Graphics,Some beautiful music,and not that hard controls make this a great game.I have the PS versions and this is just as good.I wish they had a Crash Bandicoot demo though.That would make it cooler.Oh!Here is a game tip.The hardest fairy is probably in the Space Age Speedway hard trial.To beat it thoughcollect alot of time and be extra fast at the end.Good luck!I have passed this game with 100%,all fairies and gems but it isn't worth it.All you get is this stupid,frustrating minigame called Dragonfly X.This is a great game."
310292,2,...,"last year, for PSX The Mummy was released. that sucked. well this one seems to be going in a different direction. you can play as Rick O'Connell or you can be the bald walking dead dude, Imhotep. As rick you must save your son Alex, you must un-brainwash your wife, Evelyn and then save the world, just like the movie. As the Mummy, you must use your powers to stop Rick and use agains Ardeth Bay and his Medjai and more. For both of the characters, you must defeat pygmy mummy's and the Scorpion King. Universal (the game's developer) claims that The Rock looks better in this game than it will in THQ's SmackDown! 3."
310333,2,Finally,"Do not! I repeat, Do not, order the cheaper models of the Hot Shot. They have a plastic tank and the drinks can smell and taste of rubber. Spent the extra money and get the model with the metal tank, it does the job. To tell the honest truth I still like the old design. It may not have been as aerodynamic but it was more functional. After all, I'm not planning to drive the Hot Shot in the Grand Prix of Monaco, I just what to heat water with the appliance. The older model was more substantial."
310397,2,"Jazz Standards With Originality, Richness and Feeling","Sasha Dobson sings jazz standards with precision and feeling. The richness of her voice is complimented by the Chris Byers Octet, which sounds like more than 8 musicians yet does not overwhelm Ms. Dobson. The originality of some of the ""improvisations"" make these standards, like ""What Is This Thing Called Love?"" and ""April in Paris"" absolutely wonderful to listen to."
310406,2,"sadly, unfinished","Sunset at Blandings was Wodehouse's last and, sadly, unfinished book. What there is of the book is, as Wodehouse's writing invariably is, very funny. Accompanying the unfished novel are some wonderful extras including Wodehouse's plot outline, some of his other notes, the editor's analysis of the book, a short piece about the origins of Blandings Castle and another about the Empress of Blandings. If you're new to Wodehouse you should probably read something else of his first (Leave it to Psmith and Pigs Have Wings are both excellent for first-timers), but for those who like Wodehouse this offers an wonderful look at how he did his writing."
310471,2,Cute little bag!,"Cute, and functional for a small child. Just big enough for a couple of toys, and light enough to not strain little backs. Vibrant colors. Purchased 2 of these."
310486,2,Get it while you can!,"As a massive Kirsty fan, I must admit that this is rarely the first of her CDs that I reach for when I need a fix. In a perfect world all her titles, including the magnificent 'best of"" compilation ""Galore"" would not only be in print, but in every music library.Instead, all that is currently available in the U.S. is this collection of ""unplugged"" versions of some of her songs recorded for the BBC. It is a solid collection, but far from truly representative of her work. While I might not normally give it a full 5 star rating, I add a star to help make up for the lack of availability of more Kirsty music.If enough people buy this, then we will get more Kirsty. BUY IT NOW!"
310544,2,"Actually, this is a FINE piece of hardware","I read a review of this product, authored by someone who apparently didn't know some things about it. Which is fair, since the information D-Link typically makes available to end users is basically geared toward people who know little, or nothing about networking technology. I guess they don't want to confuse anybody with too much information?Although, not yet available via the HTTP UI, a Site Survey can be displayed through a command via a telnet connection (i.e. C:\>telnet 192.168.0.50). Complete with RSSI (Signal strength), SSID and MAC addresses. The command is: 'find bbs'. Once you've connected via telnet, do a '?', for a complete list of commands.There are a number of commands (again, via telnet) that can be very useful, which aren't available via the WEB interface.I've used these as Repeaters, Point-to-Point bridges, Point-to-MultiPoint bridges, and AP's. They work just fine!"
310572,2,MIGHT BE THE BEST TANK GAME OF THEM ALL; 4.5 STARS,"THIS HIGHLY SLEPT-ON VIDEO GAME IS ACTUALLY A VERY GOOD ACTION-PACKED GAME. IN MY MIND, THIS IS A CULT CLASSIC VIDEO GAME. THIS GAME HAS NEAT GRAPHICS, FUN MISSIONS THAT'RE CHALLENGING, GOOD CONTROLS THAT'RE EASY TO MASTER, THE MUSIC ABSOLUTELY ROCKS [AND IT'S PLAYABLE IN YOUR STEREO, WHICH IS GREAT!!!], AND THE TANKS LOOK COOL. BUT, THERE'S ONLY ONE MAJOR THING THAT HURTS THIS GAME VERY MUCH: ALMOST ALL THE TANKS HAVE PROBLEMS!!!!!!!! SOME TANKS ARE VERY STRONG BUT ARE WAY TOO SLOW, SOME TANKS ARE VERY FAST BUT ARE WAY TOO WEAK, ONE TANK IS EVEN VERY FAST BUT HAS NO SHIELDS, MEANING THAT IT'S VERY EASY TO GET BLOWN AWAY! THE BEST TANK TO PLAY WITH ON THIS GAME IS THE DESERT KING, WHICH I RECCOMEND ALL GAMEPLAYERS TO PLAY WITH ON THIS GAME. EVEN HAS A NICE MOVIE-LIKE INTRO TO START THINGS OFF. SO, BEFORE YOU PLAY ''BATTLE TANX'' OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT AGAIN, FIND THIS GAME, BUY IT, AND SEE WHAT A REAL TANK GAME IS LIKE."
310595,2,This Thing Rocks!,"I replaced an old inexpensive sub woofer with this unit and I can't believe what I was missing!This thing rocks the house. The difference is amazing. Whether listening to music or watching a movie in Dolby Digital 5.1 this thing pounds (yet you can turn it down). And it's clear. The sound clarity is great. I didn't realize a sub woofer could reproduce such clear, well defined low frequency sound. My previous sub was smaller than this one and I kinda thought this one was a little too big (there is an 8"" version) but after listening to it the extra size is well worth it. Another nice feature is the front panel controls which makes it very easy to adjust the sound for different circumstances. All in all I'm very satisfied with the performance of this unit especially for the price. Combined with the Yamaha NS-125 Tower speakers I also purchased (a great deal) my system sounds better than ever."
310638,2,Sensory Overload!,"This is, without a doubt, one of the best cookbooks I have ever seen. Keller's attention to detail is astounding. Every time I open it I find something new. As a chef I can honestly say that I draw both inspiration and motivation from this book. I can't wait until I have a chance to eat at The French Laundry!"
310689,2,Marvelous book.,"This book is a staple in our family. Every 1st born in my extended family gets a copy if one can be found. I certainly wish it had not gone out of print. The catchy endless ""B"" word text is still as fresh in my mind as when I first read it to my first born 29 years ago."
310701,2,"Reassuring, gentle advice","This was a great book with a lot of gentle tips. It was very reassuring not to be told 'just leave your baby to cry' and it made me realise I could just follow my instincts, I used a lot of the tips and my baby is now a very happy, confident toddler- this book gave me a huge amount of confidence and helped me understand my relationship with my daughter."
310760,2,"Fun, Smart, Entertaining","This show is fun and smart and season 2 ratches up the clever! The season long story line of the artifact comes to a very satisfiying conclusion. The trouble these genius get into is smart and quiry. Great actin, great writing."
310764,2,Good buy,Works as described and has been a great help to my love for grilling outdoors. Would buy again if I ever need a new one.
310841,2,Taylor digital,This thermometer has a slender probe that reacts very fast when inserted into a piece of meat. It is dead on accurate at 32 and 212 so you can rely on it.
310878,2,But Why Not Release All Three Albums???,"I have been listening to these London Collection 3 CDs of Thelonious Monk, and I agree that they are probably his most mature and therefore extremely enjoyable interpretations. Most unfortunalely, these apparently were his last recorded notes. There are greater jazz piano virtuosi than Monk, but his uncannily unpredictable touch remains unique and unequalled."
310884,2,Taking women seriously,Carolyn James has done a great service to all women by writing a book that recognizes our desire to know God better and to take Him seriously. Her book underscores our need to know theology. This knowledge enables us to persevere when life's circumstances descend upon us because we can know despite the circumstances that God is good and that He is in control. I heartily recommend Carolyn's book. Read this book - for your good and God's glory!
310891,2,All-In-One Face Cream!,"Love this Avon product! I love that it is not only a moisturizer, but that it also contains an SPF of 15! Plus this product uses ""self-adjusting technology that moisturizes, exfoliates, and is now shown to enhance radiance with powerful phyto-based enzymes.""My skin has never looked better. I feel it has helped dimished my fine lines/ wrinkles and reduced enlarged pores."
310907,2,This is my third one-and I'd buy another!,"I've had 2 other types of frothers, but this is convenient/reliable and affordable...Lasts about 2 years (for me - with daily use). Use low fat milk and make sure it's nice and cold."
310949,2,Simply A Fantastic Soundtrack,"Everyone who loves music, both old and new should go get the Parent Trap soundtrack. The songs featured are just great. The song ""LOVE"" by Nat King Cole is the best. Other wonderful songs include ""There She Goes"", ""Top of the World""."
310953,2,Super the 2nd time around,"Read the originally series the 1st time - in the seventies. It was amazing. Beautiful art, great covers, a super star line-up. This collection shows off comics' 1st full story arc well."
310955,2,Don't get the box set!,The box set robs you of precious scenes . Bye each volume individually . This is great if your a fan of jackass like me.unfortunatly it is censored so all the nudity Is blurred and all the swears are bleeped . Still fun to watch on a rainy day
310966,2,Few Albums Are This Great. This is My Generation's Chill Music,"It's A Beautiful Day produced beautiful music. White Bird and Hot Summer Day are superior, relaxing tunes. Then comes Wasted Union Blues with it's hot tempo. Hot and soulful. I liked IABD more than Jefferson Airplane because they seemed like the rare jewel. If you are looking for great, rare and unusual, buy this album and share it!"
310975,2,I heart Volcom,"I am definitely the coolest kid on the block now that I own my Volcom Creedler Slip On's! Aside from being extremely comfortable, they are so hott and trendy...kinda like skateboarder chic meets sexy! When I'm wearing my Volocom Creedler Slip On's I feel like I could conquer the world!!"
311043,2,"A quick, gripping read","Most people are obviously going to be familiar with the movie, but the book is a great read. It's different from the movie in several ways, but is neither better nor worse for it. It's an incredibly quick read - I finished the whole book in approximately six hours, and enjoyed every second of it. I was actually sad when it was over. I'm a huge fan of post-apocalyptic books, and I would definitely count ""Planet of the Apes"" among my favorites."
311060,2,"Exactly As Ordered, Quick Shipping","Exactly what I ordered (and what I needed to help alert clueless family members), and it came very quickly which is always a plus. Thank you!"
311096,2,"Thought-provoking, entertaining, and well worth the money.","It's been over a year since I read this book, but when I did, I couldn't put it down, and that's not a cheap cliche. I usually read books in a week, I think it was 3 or 4 days with The Truth Machine. Every last character was true to life and the situations hardly contrived. It says FICTION on the side of the book, it seems more like FACT or PROJECTED FACT. It's that real."
311108,2,Best New Diet Book Out There,"I really enjoyed this program and am so glad that the author - whose work predates the Protein Power people, Sugar Busters, Carb Addicts, and the Zone - is finally getting her due.The best part of the program is that my skin has cleared up, my fibromyalgia is remarkedly improved and I no longer have bouts of insomnia..I lost 11 inches during the first two weeks and have managed to keep it off with her Fat Flush Kit - which is the most inexpensive way to get the carb controlling nutrients and liver supporting elements the author suggests.The recipes, by the way, are unsually tasty and I serve them to my family.I am a very satisifed customer and recommend that anybody doing those other programs, get on the Fat Flush bandwagon because this is the real deal and the next wave.Sheila Rose"
311115,2,But I didn't have the ABILITY,"The funniest comedian I've seen in years!! Maybe ever!! I laughed so hard I could hardly breathe. Whether it's on DVD, VHS, audio, comedy channel, or in person, you have GOT to see this guy!! Well worth your money and your time."
311118,2,It really does work!,"I started this program New Year's Eve, and I took a week off from work so I wouldn't have my built in excuses to fall back on. I also bought his Boot Camp DVD, it has pretty much the same exercises as this book. I had to modify some of the exercises, (I didn't even attempt a Spider-Man push-up!), but I lost 12 lbs and 10 inches. The last 3 days of the 14 I was back to work with a lot of meetings. It was harder to work out in the evenings after work than it was to workout first thing in the morning the first 11 days. I cheated (only slightly) for one meal (I had a non-fat latte and 2 cheese stuffed olives) and I didn't lose any weight that day, I also didn't do both workouts the last 2 days. I believe had I not cheated and did all of the workouts, I would have lost nearly 20 lbs."
311193,2,Classic Sherlock Holmes,"Ronald Howard does a wonderful Sherlock Holmes and H. Marion Crawford playing Watson. These shows were all produced to last under 30 minutes, yet they do a wonderful job of giving an entertaining performance.Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Series"
311195,2,Mesmerizing,This is one of my favorate movies ever! It has a dream-like quality and the characters were real for me. I identified with them and the film connected me back to my youth.
311210,2,Long Road Home to Freedom : An Anthology,I was assigned this CD and Book collection for a class at my university. I must say that I am throughly impressed at all the historiacl information and woderful songs that were chosen. This is an indept look at Black music from Africa to present.
311267,2,Wow,"awesome film, better then T3 and problem was storylines but this was doing the writer strike, other then that awesome movie"
311287,2,I have had great succes with this female sex aid,"I am very happy I found this winning product. I have gotten over whatever was holding me back from being responsive to any sexual advances, or even self inposing efforts to have relieved myself of sexual frustration. This product is highly effective."
311426,2,The Last Lions,"This film has been a turning point in my life. I have sent DVDs to many of my friends and will continue to promote this message of the ultimate proof of love, and the undeniable intelligence and resourcefulness of Ma di Tau. The way in which she adapts to loss by digging deep and moving on is courageous and a key element to survival. Looking at the film from the buffalo's perspective also made me twitch for them. They, too, are demonstrative of great bravery and physical endurance. The combination of the theme and quality of the film, coupled with JI's exquisite talent to narrate culminated in the perfect equation to a perfect product. I will do whatever I can, whenever I can to promote the Big Cats Initiative via `causeanuproar.com'"
311454,2,This Flick Makes Sailor M Look Good!,"RIPPIN! I am not the usual Sailor M fan, but now that the Outer Senshi are in buisness the inner senshi are a force to be reckoned with. Especially to snow Kaguya. Rock on Haruka, Setsuna, and Michiru!"
311506,2,Perfect little radio.,Great sound from a small size. Best price around. I don't even have to extend the antenna to receive the stations that I want to listen too.
311534,2,It's what I expected,I'm not air filter aficionado. I needed air filters for my home and these work. I can't say there is any specific noticeable difference--there shouldn't be. They were what I expected when I ordered them.
311536,2,Dance CD,"This album is actually mostly dance music. My sister bought this CD cause she liked the songs they had in the charts, and while it had those songs on the CD nearly all the other songs are plain dance music, no words that is.I really like this CD cause im a dance music fan but if you think their gonna have more pop music on it then youve got another thing coming."
311630,2,Best coffee,This is a great way to make coffee. It takes the bitterness out of the coffee. I especially like it as iced coffee. I would recommend this to others.
311683,2,A Great Watch,This is a very comfortable watch-not too big-not too heavy. The face shines in the dark- a convenient feature. I bought it for my husband specifically for the beach and going into the water but now he wears it all the time. It is functioning perfectly. The band is very comfortable but tends to overlap too much on the wrist and gets caught on city clothing. Citizen could have made a shorter band. For quality and price you can't beat this watch. My husband is completely satisfied and loves it.
311704,2,Sense of Humour failure,"Clearly the chap who reviewed this movie last needs to get out more. The film was clearly not for him. I have just returned from a screening at the NFT in the UK and a packed audience found it very amusing and throughly entertaining. If you struggle with the subtleties of irony, dont watch this film. If you enjoy kitsch and have ever witnessed the begininning of a lesbian relationship, you will love this film."
311712,2,Sony IC Recorder,"The Sony ICD-B300 IC Recorder is good for lectures I agree, but it doesn't have the good playback quality like the Olympus VN-240. If you do plan to keep all your lectures, I'd suggest something with more storage space and would allow you to transfer the files to computer. It is not necessarly good for fast use, and certainly a bit harder to use then the others I've seen...but I recommend this item if you are a high school student (if I were a college student...I'd get something a with more memory and playback quality since Professors do mostly is talk...). This item is also good for recording notes to yourself or an employer."
311727,2,rock 'n' roll cuisine,"I love the recipes, especially when they are written in original handwriting, and a story about the recipe how it was acquired...initmate profile of our favorite intertainer's! Excellent!"
311736,2,Very Good Game,I liked this game alot but I would recommend I Spy Treasure Hunt if you want to try one of the I Spy games go with Treasure Hunt first. It is very enjoyable for all ages.
311754,2,GREAT READ!!!,"I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN AN AVID READER UNTIL LAST YEAR, WHEN I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH LUPUS AND ADD. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO READ ANY FICTION BOOK WHAT-SO-EVER. ALL I COULD MANAGE WERE BOOKS ABOUT MY ILLNESSES. THIS BOOK HAS HELD MY ATTENTION AND LET ME GET BACK INTO MY WONDERFUL READING HABIT. THANK YOU MRS. JANCE FOR A WONDERFUL READ AND A GREAT REMINDER OF HOW MUCH I LOVE SEATTLE."
311755,2,Beautiful beyond belief!,"This is some of the most beautifully flowing music I have ever heard! Immediately, it touched my heart and my soul.....even brought tears to my eyes because it was so touching. I do massage and Reiki, and this will definitely be one of most favorite CD collections. I love it!"
311765,2,Great Extras!,"This is probably the most deluxe set I've seen for any series. All the little extras are great.I was surprised by the English version of the series. To be honest, I think all of the voices are pretty fitting, with the exception of Kyon's. The English voice actor just doesn't carry the same tone of righteous anger the original Kyon had.That being said, if you enjoyed the Japanese version, you will enjoy the English version."
311771,2,"Digital Thermometer, Timer and Clock","Worka well but didn't come with very good directions on its use. Fortunately, it was not that hard to figure out. I like the magnet on the back that you can use to stick to the range hood for easy access as well as seeing the timer from a distance."
311809,2,Golfing with God,Integrates love of golfing with human questions of spirituality -- introduces subject matter that matters! Golfers and non-golfers alike will get a kick out of this one.
311827,2,Very god!,"For the most part I was thrilled with this movie. They do change a couple things, most importantly how Margaret and Mr. Thornton meet. That scene really bothered me because it didn't seem at all true to his character in the book. However, the rest did make up for it! I'm definetly glad I bought it, and I""ll be viewing it often!"
311947,2,Good and convenient,"I have a Nikon D40 and this little remote works well. Setting up to use (follow camera manual instructions for remote camera use) is really easy and you basically just aim and fire for the shot. It was worth the money for the convenience of taking shots with a remote. It's small so make sure you keep it safe in it's little case so it doesn't get lost. My only complaint is that I feel like I have to aim right at the camera sometimes or the remote won't work. Of course, you don't want your arm pointing at the camera as you take the shot so there are some adjustments you have to make when you're taking a pic, like holding the remote behind your back and angling yourself in a certain way so it looks natural."
311955,2,Love It,"Used this remote for the 1st time on vacation recently and loved it. We were able to get some amazing pictures of our family and the range went out at least 30 feet, never tried further. I was able to set the camera to remote/timer so you have a couple secs to hide your hand, this remote is small enough to slide into your pocket easily and quickly. Great product!"
312046,2,Love Love Love this movie!,A very realistic cop movie. Jake Gyllenhaal was excellent as well Michael Pena. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it and recommend it 100%!!!!!
312116,2,Heath,"Excellent starting place to get into this kind of book, very good reference. I've been climbing for the last five years, and I learned a lot from this book."
312133,2,Fantastic Time Piece,"Received this Citizen Eco-Drive watch over a week ago and it is as elegant as advertised. Purchase this as a Birthday gift for my wife and she just loves it. I own 2 Citizen Eco-Drive time pieces and am impressed with the quality as well as the time accuracy. I'm a fan of Citizen brand watches and expect these will last a lifetime with normal use. When comparing prices at some of the local stores and several websites, the prices advertised in Amazon are very competitive and fair. Outstanding product and vendor. Thank you for the quick shipment which was received just in time for my wife's Birthday."
312151,2,Works great!,I've had this for a few weeks now and haven't had any problems. It's the cheapest one I could find for a 2GB stick.
312164,2,An excellent book!,"I have always loved Rev. Lutzer's books on various subjects! After I had read this book, I felt I just went through an apologetics class! His writing was clear and right to the points!"
312177,2,Excellent overview of ITIL v2,"This has been invaluable as a tool for learning about and teaching about ITIL. I have shared it with, and recommended it to, many colleagues and clients. I hope the authors are preparing an update for ITIL v3"
312233,2,Loves it!,"I bought this watch for my boyfriend and he loves it, and I love seeing it on him! Definately a favorite =)"
312241,2,WOW what a book - 5 stars*****,A must for everyone. I would like to express my gratitude to his wife Janet for her many years of encourangement. If it was not for her would this great book have been created? Thank you Janet for the awesome book ( and i almost forgot to the author David Cassidy)
312284,2,Excellent Fryer,"I bought this Fryer to make French Fries at a small food concession I have. Wow! It did a beautiful job on the fries and with the two baskets there's no hold up on customer orders. The fries are done in about 5 minutes and the customers love them. I wish there was a more effective way to clean the elements, but with the ease of using the fryer, I'll make do with carefully wiping it down with a sudsy cloth."
312322,2,Decent low-carb option,"All in all the blueberry muffins were good. They are not super-sweet like many store or cafe bought muffins, but they were still yummy. The texture is soft and fluffy, not cardboard. It was nice to have these as a low-carb treat.The only negative is that the package only makes 11-12 small muffins at 4 carbs each (1 muffin is a serving). I used the standard cupcake sized silicon baking cups and only got 11 with none of them baking any higher than the top of the cups. One won't fill you up enough to have as breakfast by itself, but they make a great snack in the afternoon or paired with some berries for desert."
312359,2,Controversial yet Nice,"Madeleine L'Engle brings us yet another thought provoking book. She reunites us with characters from her beloved time trilogy. Meg and Calvin's oldest daughter, Polly, is on an educational trip to Greece and Cyprus. Once she is there, she starts to relive her recent troubling past. One year before she arrives in Greece, Polly meets Maxa, an intelligent and wise elderly woman. Polly idolizes Maxa, because Maxa helps Polly to overcome her troubles. One day, a drunken Maxa makes the mistake of hurting Polly, and she discovers the startling truth that Maxa is only human. Will Polly learn to forgive Maxa? The novel has many controversial issues in it, and should not be in the young adult section. But the book still shows the meaning of trust, love and honesty."
312360,2,I've waited a long time for a phone like this one.,"Having been hearing impaired since childhood, I'm glad that technology has finally acknowledged the needs of the hearing impaired. The amplified phones of the past don't hold a candle to the Clarity C4210. After carefully reading the manual, I found that all the problems mentioned in the previous reviews are addressed... if only people would take the time to understand this phone's functions.The phone *IS* easy to use, easy to program, interfaces well with my phone service's voice mail system (which is nice since this phone does not have a built-in answering machine). The phone flashes when I either have missed a call or have a voice message waiting. Great feature since my old phone's built in digital answering machine sounded horrible. It stores a whopping 50 numbers in its phone directory. And, most importantly, provides ample amplification, up to 50 dB, of the high frequencies needed to clearly understand speech. I highly recommend this phone."
312432,2,Nice to have,"If you keep your proof of insurance & registration papers in your glove compartment (And I would certainly hope that as a good citizen you do) then this is a nice to have product. I'm a bit of a meticulous type so when I saw this product I said to myself this would go well in the glove compartment so that I don't have to fumble through papers if & when I have to get out my registration. If you have to cross State lines or go through one of those ""check points"" you simple pop open the glove compartment & there it is. No papers to have to go through searching for it or anything."
312433,2,The MTV Generation,"I thoroughly enjoyed this performance video. Being a dancer, myself, I purchase many belly dance videos and was very pleased with this offering from Amira Mor. Her dancing is spectacular and she is quite stunning. I would love to see more videos from her, including a teaching video. She has a style that is exciting to watch and should be shared."
312455,2,Ain't love strange,"If you are into listening to Paul Thorn, this album is for you. The titile track sold me on the rest of the album - Whenever it comes on you break into a smile. This album is the closest in style to ""Hammer and Nail"". The single ""Where was I"" hits close to home for everyone that has ever lost a love.I love this one!"
312503,2,Davies tries to reconcile scientific fact w/religious ideas,"There are things that have been taught by established religions, which, over time, have been known to conflict with the findings of scientists. Is there some common ground where the two can meet? In ""The Mind of God"", Paul Davies makes an honest attempt to examine both and see where the road leads.As the questions arise, Davies shows us how certain religious teachings cannot be currently reconciled with today's science, yet, science stills leads us to the logical conclusion that God must exist. Of course, since Davies is more of a scientist than a religious expert, my copy is full of notes with Bible verses which match up with his conclusions - so, just maybe the two ""universes"" can get along.For those who are interested in both areas of life, this book is a MUST read."
312596,2,Great for all ages!,"I bought this for a friend's daughter who was turning 2. I was hesitant at first because I thought she was too young. Not true! She loves it and has a tea party every day. The porecelin is very durable. The pieces are nice and big so she can handle them. The only thing is the spoons that come with is are a little on the small side and she immediately put them in her mouth and could have choked. So I would say if the child is still young enough where she puts everything in her mouth, hold back the spoons until she is old enough or supervize her very carefully while she plays with it."
312597,2,variation is the premium,"I have read Ashbery's first books, such as: Some Trees, and The Double Dream of Spring, Houseboat Days, and also much of the Selected Poems, and I think this latest book, Chinese Whispers, is comparable to his best work.As I read Chinese Whispers, and then reread it, I found how it is similar to the variation found in an anthology. The Best American Poetry 2003 contains all kinds of forms and tones, etc. and Ashbery, in C. W. takes on this kind of task, the task of not settling in a rhythm, to keep moving. Even toward the winter of his career, Ashbery is still searching; he seems to still be searching like a beginning poet, yet a new poet with a strong voice."
312647,2,Transcendent,"The CD is worth the purchase solely for ""A Man Called Sun.""True space rock. Of essential listening, as well as the aforementioned track, is ""Gravity Grave,"" which is also a stellar live track on the B-Side and live CD ""No Come Down."""
312651,2,This series is great!,"If you love historic fiction, romance, with a little time travel and its complications thrown in, the Outlander series is a must read. Thrill a minute and so well written. You can see it, smell it, taste, feel it right along with Claire and Jamie. I wish I had a Highlander too! These are big books and I haven't been able to put them down! I will have finished the whole series within three months (on An Echo in the Bone now) and can't wait for the next release Fall of 2013."
312769,2,Delicious!,"I love this book! We've already successfully made yogurt with the info gleaned from this book, and are now trying to get our hands on some kombucha mother ...The book is easily readable and PACKED with useful and interesting data.Sandor Ellix Katz is the king of cultures! The master of molds! Very excellent book ... get it!"
312798,2,Great die grinder!!,"Very useful die grinder. Not to heavy for long work periods.Durable, have used this item for years."
312819,2,Great readingMust read for Sox & Fenway fans.,"I found this publication to be delightful from page one. The author's love of historical Fenway Park, and the significance of it's possible loss to the people of Boston, becomes immediately apparent. Although I have never attended Fenway Park, I could sense it's charm and grace throughout the chapters. This publication is a must read for any Red Sox fan anywhere, which generates an appreciation for not only Fenway, but for those citizens' of Boston, long suffering the Curse of the Bambino!"
312853,2,Works Great,"When my VGAs fan stoped working this was the my 1st pick on how to replace the fan, only reason I didn't go with it right a way was, cause I knew my motherbord had no extra 4 prong, and the ones I could use wouldnt give the 12 volts needed to full power fan, so I found out that I could use my power suply units 6"" SATA power cables to power the fan, item I go were: Zalman ZM-MC1 Multi-connector PS to Add Fan, Manhattan, 6"" SATA 15-Pin Male to Dual 4-Pin Molex Female Y Splitter, 308977 by Manhattan. Hopefully somone that has the same issue as me, will read this and deside to go down the same road and just buy 2 lil extra things.But all things considered, saved myself a lot more money to buy a VGA that is same or better then what I have now, the fan keep VGA cooler then stock fan."
312914,2,Steven Raichlen Best of Barbecue Beer Can Chicken Roaster,"Bought it for all the Griller Guys, family and friends, as Christmas presents. All were quite pleased with the quality, versatility and ease of use of this product. The chicken comes off the grill looking like a Top Chef meal and the bird is juicy and moist."
312924,2,They forgot to pack earplugs with this...,"Not much of a flaw as much as it is a suggestion of what should have been sorted with this item because this thing is a beast. LOUD! In seconds you've basically got yourself a smooth, liquidated drink from whatever you plan to make with it. I tested it out myself having a load of ice tossed into it, gave it the simple flip of the switch, and after a roar of its .5 horsepower motor, the ice nearly disintegrated into this fine mesh of slush which had I left it on any longer would have become water in the matter of a few more seconds.I often wonder if I'll go deaf of hearing using this product too much because it really is loud, so if you plan on getting this thing, invest in some earplugs, it just might help. Otherwise, I'm very pleased with this item in more ways than I can say."
312928,2,A Staple on My Bookself,This is an absolutely wonderful resource that can motivate Christian writers as well as remind us of the greater purpose of our journey down the writing/publishing path.http://purposedprincess.wordpress.com/
312957,2,GREAT item!,"This item is great! I have used it several times since I purchase it, and it has done a wonderful job. The only reason I am giving it 4 stars rather than 5 is because I have not tried to make pasta with it, not will I. I bought it to grind meat, so I can control and trim most of the fat, and it does that wonderfuly. I think I already made my money back with all that I have saved buying those expensive 'lean' ground beef/chicken/ turkey at the supermarket. I will say that I put through very little to no fat, so I don't know how this aparatus would react to tendons and such. I have not made sausages, but I have ground somewhat fatty (marbeled) cuts of pork and it has done great."
313020,2,Lexicon DevilA MUST READ!!!,"I couldn't put this book down! The gossipy style of the interviews printed in this book were completely engrossing and very revealing. I felt close, prehaps uncomfortably too close, to the characters. Anyone interested in early L.A. punk will love this book. The only negative I see is that more info should have been included in the indexes at the back, more song lyrics, etc. Overall, a great read!"
313047,2,A must!,"This show was shot at Royal Albert Hall in the end of 2004 and edited to about 90 minutes of DVD time, leaving 17 songs out of 25 from the original show (plus biography and countdown to the show documentary. There are 12 classics (including ""Stay with me"" with Ronnie Wood) and 5 standards from ""American songbook"" trilogy (""As Times Goes by"" performed with Chrissie Hynde of Pretenders). All in all, it's a wonderful DVD - great show and excellent quality of audio and video. At 59 Rod is still a great entertainer, and his backing musicians are very good. The audience is just fantastic and is ready to sing along with Rod all the time (sometimes he even has to tell that they can not start to sing before him).One of the best live DVDs I've ever seen. Highly recommended to all music lovers!"
313063,2,SNES after market controler,"This Super Nintendo controler is just as good as the original, I have and will continue to have many hours of great fun playing SNES with this controler. I definetly recomend this controler. above all else keep the spirit of SNES alive in my opinion SNES is one of the best family entertainment Video Game Systems."
313118,2,Good if fits your learning style,"Very thorough in covering the field. This second edition is even better than the first one. Chapters are short and focused. Data was updated to the date of publication. However, the format is plain and a little boring to me. I can read through a chapter in short time but retain not much information besides what I already know. I think it is the dry format design that is not exciting. It is a condensed volume with a lot of good information with no illustration. It should be good for those who prefer this style of reading. It is 6 year old so needs some update, particularly in neuroscience and psychopharmacology."
313141,2,Perfect,Exactly what I needed to make my gauges that were designed for R-12 systems to work on my newer R-134a vehicles. Shipped promply.
313160,2,mozart the great,"I heard other recordings of Mozart's k 310-none of them were so powerful and touching as Gilels'performance.Mozart and the other composers seem to be playing through Gilels. Sometimes I was distracted by the coughing and sneezing-some of those people sounded like they should have been in a hospital, not a theatre!-but the music is so great I could still listen spellbound."
313165,2,Awesome DVD but not for beginners.,"I bought this DVD as a beginner dance student and needless to say, found it very difficult (so I put it way for later use). Picked it up months later as an intermediate student and now find that I can follow along with Zoe. The dvd includes four disks and I must say, it never gets old and I'm able to supplement it in between classes. She covers so much in this DVD and it's all well-explained and demonstrated. I easily learned to flutter using her techniques! I'd say that lastly, she also covers things way in-depth that other dvd's don't; one being the most important, posture. I'd say that you won't go wrong buying this dvd, it's well worth the money."
313170,2,Great Read!,"I have been a big fan of the movie ""Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken"" for years and when I learned that she had written a boke that the movie was based off of I knew I had to read it. It did not dissapoin and is a great story for horse lovers all over! It also has great life lessons from the troubles that Sonora went through and how she overcame them."
313183,2,Great game!,"I had this game before and bought it again and enjoyed it thoroughly! Do keep in mind, it is a older game so it slows down your computer a bit."
313189,2,ONE HELL OF A BOOK,"What can you say? Pucci is a writer in the true sense of the word. Here is a writer that could change the face of American literature. A completely irreverent book, lewd, wild and one of the best books I have ever read."
313197,2,REC is great ...quarentine is a bad copy!,Someone said that you have to see just one of them. There is no doubt ... REC is an excellent film and Quarentine doesn't have the feeling and reality of REC. I saw REC in DVD (excellent quality video) and in blu-ray I think it will be fantastic!Obs: I'm changing my review today (02/15/2010) ... Here in Brasil I rented REC in Blu-ray this month (february)... It's is very good !!! Forget the DVD ...
313233,2,BELKIN FOLIO CASE REVIEW,"THIS CASE OFFERS GOOD SCRATCH PROTECTION; IT COMPLETELY COVERS THE MP3 PLAYER EXCEPT FOR THE CONTROLS. IT DID NOT HOWEVER HAVE A LARGE ENOUGH AREA AT THE BOTTOM FOR THE USB CABLE TO PLUG IN CORRECTLY. THE HOLE NEEDED TO BE SLIGHTLY LARGER. OTHERWISE, I LIKE IT."
313234,2,"I'm rather better now... deskwise, at least...","So far, this is the only book that has made a serious dent in my disorganization. My desk at work has been cleaned off and organized for months on end now, since around June 2007.Unfortunately, I still have a strong tendency towards lateness, and my entire apartment is still a wreck, but this amazing desk progress is really something.I learned some cleaning and organizing techniques from Clean Sweep, Julie Morgenstern and David Allen's Getting Things Done, but this book somehow got me to apply what I knew from those other sources. Some of the more extremely hippy dippy stuff is over the top, but some of it hits home. I'll be rereading this book soon, for a second pass at the problem."
313276,2,COFFEE,kONA COFFEE IS THE BEST AND VERY HARD TO GET. I HAVE MY OWN GRINDER AND CUP TO BREW IN AND AM VERY HAPPY
313347,2,7 episodes in Series 2,"Love the series! The PBS broadcast of Series II actually contains 7 episodes total -- all 4 episodes from UK ""series 2"" and 3 episodes (out of 4) from UK ""series 3."" [...]Episodes of Inspector Lewis: Series II- And the Moonbeams Kiss the Sea- Music to Die For- Life Born of Fire- The Great and the Good- Allegory of Love- The Quality of Mercy- The Point of Vanishing"
313391,2,My daughter's favorite book,"This book is wonderful. It has only one or two words on each page, but combined with the illustrations, its all you need to tell an entire story. The main and only character is androgynous, so the book ""works"" for boys or girls. And my daughter can read it to me!"
313393,2,Bead & Wire Book Purchase,"The purchase arrived in a timely manner and in prestine condition for a used book. An excellent transaction! The book has wonderful projects for people interested in wire wrapping, and items for the advanced. A great purchase."
313404,2,Adobe Elements buy it,"Excellent product with ease of use. If you expose and focus right, you can't go wrong."
313488,2,A Definate Keeper!,I'm a polymer clay cane artist and I found this book both interesting and inspiring. I love the color palettes shown. This book is a definate keeper in my polymer clay library.
313492,2,Innovative Ideas for Hands-On Creative People,"If you're a creative person who likes to get into hands on projects, this is a book for you. Each section begins with a photograph of an entire room, and the following pages used cropped images of each item with instructions on how to make them. Most of the projects do require some knowledge about construction & materials, however. Tools needed include a jigsaw, sewing machine, or a large space in which to do some of the projects. There are smaller projects though that do not require these things, and the book definitely promotes you to come up with your own creative ideas. One downside though, if you are interested in easy crafts - this isn't the book for you. Readers definitely need to understand the basics in order to find this book useful."
313531,2,We love it !!!!,"We love this product. It put a stop to our little girl crying everytime we changed her diaper. She is now 14 months and she still loves it. In great contrast to other warmers that we tried, this one keeps the wipes nice and moist. Wonderful buy :)"
313536,2,Supernanny,a must for any household experiencing difficulties with children's behaviours and not knowing what to try next every parent should have at least 1 or 2 of Jo's books in the arsenal of tactics
313603,2,Gravis Gamepad Pro,"Luv this Gamepad for PC, works for Windows 7 but you need to plug it into the USB 3.0/2.0 if you plugged it inUSB 2/1.1 port it won't recognize it LOL don't ask me why? lol maybe gigabyte got it's wiring all screwed up and got everything backwards ... well anyway it works for Win7 (I have the Ultimate Version but don't think that matters)"
313626,2,Re-Live WWII,"This game is ""a must have"" if you love either WWII history or first person shoot'em ups! Wonderfully designed graphics and fluid game play. The AI is intelligent, trying to dodge your shots while cursing at you in German. The Normandy beach invasion was so realistic that I was literally ducking to avoid the bullets buzzing past. I haven't encountered the immense difficulty some of the reviewers have been siting, but I must say that aiming is quite a chore sometimes with a PS2 gamepad. The PC version uses the mouse which would make targeting much easier. Quite possibly a third person view such as in Metal Gear or Tomb Raider might've been more appropriate for this game on PS2. Nevertheless, EA has once again outdid themselves with this second installment of MOH. I hope the third installment starts off with the battle of Iwo Jima...hint hint for any game developers reading this."
313630,2,They have done it again...,"What can I say?! It is action packed from the very beginning to the end. Lots of the same weapons, a lot more ""mazes"" to find your way out of. I would have put a rating of ""5"", but the ending was disappointing. The creators could have ended it differently...but that's just my opinion. Of course, I won't give it away, but if and when you get there, you'll know what I mean. It leaves you wondering why there isn't something else... For those of you who like to try this game on different levels, you will definitely like this game...just don't get frustrated. The ""hard"" level is so incredibly hard, it seems as though you will never get passed the first mission. SO, Go ahead, give it a try... :)"
313665,2,Beautiful,"This small book is beautiful. The illustrations are repeated under different terms to make the use of the book a joy, instead of tedious. The drawings themselves are concise and all in black and white, which seems to give the overall book a neat (unified) appearance. I am thrilled with this book, as an artist, newly focusing on Botanical Art. I also recommend for the sheer beauty of the book:New Flowering: 1000 Years of Botanical Art"
313692,2,BEST DIAPER PAIL EVER!,"We love the Diaper Dekor. I'd originally picked this out before my son was born, and then changed my mind as it required expensive refill Bags. At first we used the Diaper Champ, as it could use regular 13gal kitchen bags....biggest waste of money ever! it always got jammed with wipes, so you couldn't turn the handle at the top to dispose of the diapers....SO, I WENT AND BOUGHT THE DIAPER DEKOR INSTEAD, AND IT IS SOOOOOO MUCH BETTER! easy to change the bags, lasts longer before needing to be changed, and can even convert to a regular trash can after the baby has outgrown diapers..."
313756,2,Awesome Copper Mill,"This Copper Pepper Mill is Awesome!If you are a Pepper Lover, You'll love this PepperMill!"
313764,2,Works great!,This is a good product. I use it for my bamboo chopping block from time to time and it keeps it looking nice.
313796,2,sing the sorrow rocks,"afi's new album sing the sorrow is their best album yet. their is such a great diversity of songs on the album- there is sure to be something for everyone. the hidden track, ""this time imperfect,"" is the most amazing song i have ever heard. i recommend this ablum to all my friends- especially those who do not really know afi."
313869,2,Pot-porri of British Military Bands,"This CD is a pot-porri collection of older Bandleader recordings that have been combined together. Sadly many of these recordings are out of print, so the listener has a limited opportunty to hear these bands here. Since most of these recordings are from records and CD from the late 80s and early 90s the size and diversity of the bands are greater than what remains today in the British army. That being said, I still don't like collections, preferring the original myself. But at least the bands are identified, and the selection of music is pretty good. A nice mix of concert music and marches, with some percussian and corps of drum music thrown in. This CD should deffinitely give the listener a good impression of what was the size and diversity of British military bands."
313876,2,Great book for dragon lovers.,"For the aspiring dragon artist or the experienced, this book is great. It may be leaning more towards the beginning artist as it covers color theory, lighting, and your basic drawing complex objects with shapes. It has step by step instructions that will let you make one of the dragons in the book or make one from your own imagination. It gives you a good grip on dragon anatomy, and the different ways to draw them. It's colorful, well-organized, and just overall a great book. All this artist's books are very well done."
313882,2,Works Great,"I have had this product for over a year now, and living on a farm it's gets a lot of use with the smaller tractors, lawn and garden equipment and the cars and trucks. This is my second booster PAC, my first was a Century model J900 I had it for 2 to 3 years when it was hit by a lightning power surge. This model is much better with it's longer cables and 1500 Amp."
313965,2,Best (and Worst) Practices,"I was looking for theory; so I was initially disappointed, but once I got past that I started enjoying it as a catalogue of both best and worst practices. It's funny. There's a particularly good example of how to use a toilet bib."
313989,2,A WONDER AT A WONDERFUL PRICE!!,This book is a must for anyone who is a lover of Michelangelo's works! It has made me want to return to Europe to see the works of his I have missed in my travels. What more can I say!
314061,2,Amazing Book,"A truely amazing book by a truely amazing man. If you have lost a loved one or are afraid of dying, you should read this book. Thank you, Mr Anderson for sharing your insight."
314067,2,Kinky scores again!,"This is an unlikely source for a Christmas fable, but it is absolutely wonderful. It is reminiscent of Charlotte's Web but original enough to score on its own. I gave it to three friends this holiday."
314104,2,EXCELLENT,much better than the stuff you get from the grocery store and so much cheaper...i'll be buying more when i run out...i use it on food and i put it in gel caps to take as a supplement...
314132,2,Testimony,"Mason Proffit joins Buffalo Springfeild in testifying to the new document that taught us all we need to do more. More for the environment, more to dismantle the John Birch/NRA body politic, ..... more for the revolution. Mason Profitt reminded us we are not doing enough to challenge our corrupt government, unfair trials, neglect of Native American treaties, racism...then there was Jackson State and Kent State. Then Nixon (not to mention 'nam), Watergate. What have we learned?"
314143,2,This is an excellent CD of duets,"Reba collaborates with the biggest names in music on this album. The result is a very entertaining disc. Nobody sings about heartache and the difficulty of relationships better than Reba. She performs duets with Vince Gill, Kenny Chesney Don Henley, and Leeann Rimes. These songs are about the pain of failed relationships. I love the way Reba harmonizes with the talented performers on these tracks. I love the musical arrangement of the track ""Does The Wind Still Blow In Oklahoma"". This song is about two people feeling lonely and home sick. I love the violins playing on this track and Ronnie's Dunn's vocals. ""Everyday People"" is a track that stands out. This is an excellent tune about people helping those in crisis. ""Sleeping With The Telephone"" is a song for all the military wives who miss their husbands serving in a hostile country like Iraq. This is a very touching tune. This CD is very enjoyable to listen to."
314147,2,The Rockford Files,"The kind of show they can't make anymore. That rare group like Picket Fences, Hill Street Blues, and Wiseguy. The Rockford Files was special."
314277,2,Buy It For the Beach,"I've heard the Barber works performed more convincingly elsewhere, but the Gaelic Symphony of Amy Marcy Cheney Beach (d. 1944) is a real charmer with an exquisitely beautiful and affecting Lento third movement; the symphony could've ended there and I'd have been content. The orchestra sounds somewhat underpowered, but the playing is elegant and the recording is vivid and spacious in the Chandos tradition."
314345,2,Satisfied,I am very satisfied with this project. I bought it for the study I was doing at my church. I could pay via credit card instead of cash through the bible study group. The book came on time and in great condition. The book itself is very informative like most of Beth Moore studies. I would recommend the book and the study to anyone interested in learning more about the holy spirit even if you are a well read christian like myself because Beth Moore gathers information from all around the bible and seeing the verses together help you to read it and understand the concept in a whole new way.
314454,2,A nice collection of her hits,Has a nice assortment of her hits with a couple that you cant get on any other albums im aware of.
314462,2,Great ideas,"Ordered the book for my teachers. It has many wonderful interventions ideas for individual students, small groups, and even class lessons."
314560,2,Best cooling fan ever,"I have the first PS3 system (don't know how many gigs it has though) and I had gotten this fan or an earlier version to go with it. My system has lasted for about 6 years due to this fan and I only had to clean the fan once! My current fan has just died after 6 years of hard core gaming this morning. Thank you my precious Intercooler for making these many years of gaming worth wild. O and I plan to get this one to replace my old one.Reasons for liking this fan:1) adjustable fan speed2) it actually works to reduce heat3) the ON switch is in the frontReasons you might not like the fan:1) can be loud at first but keep playing, you'll forget it's on2) slightly difficult to put on, be gentle though and don't loose your temper!3) plugs will be a tighter fit4) after three-four years it will begin to fade5) after three years the label will begin to peelOther than that it will be worth the purchase!-Bubbles"
314562,2,A good start.,"Despite what's been posted here, this isn't an album of ""sunny pop songs"". Ralston dwells in break-ups, death, failure on Needle Bed. And it's pretty good stuff, despite that it sounds like it was recorded in a home studio (it partially was). Some of the turn phrases (see No One Said..., Avalanche) seem like abortive attemps at ""hooks"" - I prefer it when he plays it straight, as with the album's gem, Gone Gone Gone, which with any luck will break into AC radio. Buy and enjoy."
314583,2,Brings WW1 to life.,I have been trying to understand my grandfather's experience with the 307th Infantry in the Great War. Mr. Laplander's book has done that and more. Reading it makes me feel like I'm with those brave Doughboys in the Argonne. This is a must-read for anyone interested in WW1 or military history in general.
314628,2,A New Light,"My new headlight bulbs are working great. They provide a wider field of vision than the original equipment headlights on my Sentra, and more distance too. I was concerned that since I could see a little further that I would get oncoming drivers flashing their lights at me thinking I had them on bright, but none so far. Also, I find myself using low beam no matter how dark or vacant the road because that's all I need now!"
314630,2,Wow!,"Anyone who owns a Jetta and has the original bulbs knows how weak they are in all conditions. Mix that with lenses that have been 'tarnished' with the years of dirt and grime you know how difficult it is to see with the original bulbs. I strongly recommend these bulbs. They are exponentially safer than the original. You will see an immediate difference and your line of sight will significantly increase. Night vision will be increased so much that you will not drive in fear of not seeing what's in front of you. Excellent safety increase and again, strongly recommended!"
314650,2,Gunsmoke-50th,"I really like this DVD set purchased from Amazon. It was delivered in a hurry and the picture quality is very good. The set also has some very good extras including an interview with ""Miss Kitty""."
314652,2,Walker can write,"I have had to write some fiction for college classes and was reading a lot of short stories to get an idea of what is out there. Alice Walker is among the best writers ever, able to experiment and work with different styles. I could not put this book down."
314681,2,For 17 bucks...you can't get anything better.,"Great product. Great Value. It exceeded my expectations, I just use it for photography with a high zoom Sony Camera. I recommend this, for beginners and amateurs."
314854,2,Very nice,my dad found one of these at his work when he was clearing out an apartment it was sitting at the top of the trash and he gave it to me cause im the tech guy in our home so i charged it up touchscreen accuracy is top notch and it helps alot sounds it about a .5/5 but other than that very very nice i love it and i got for free but i hope you guys buy it!!!!!
314918,2,Road's a Breeze,"I overheard the tune ""Road's a Breeze (@3am)"" at a patio party last summer and had to find out who that was. Such a cool groove! I'm a guitar player mostly into bebop/fusion jazz and the guitar solo really grabbed my ear. I was unable to just download ""Road"" on itunes so bought entire CD through Amazon. After several listenings through maybe I'm not as knocked out by whole album as the the first time hearing ""Road"" as some of the other jam tunes get kinda muddly and unfocused sounding for me. Overall though some really cool stuff."
314941,2,A truly touching tale of love,"Mina is a city-girl whose tragic loss of her husband has left her in a state of spiritual and emotional distress. She is led on a path back to God, love and happiness by her guardian angel Sam, who proves that miracles do happen in this day and age.This is a beautifully written story of loss, hope and God's love. At times I laughed out loud, at times I cried, but by the end of the book I felt as if I was a part of something really special. The characters are real, and endearing, and the story is intriguing. This is an excellent love story."
314953,2,"Beautiful, Haunting, a Must-Have","This music is, for lack of a better term, cinematic. When playing Shadow of the Colossus, it feels for a few brief moments like one is the star of an epic film. The music brings all these feelings and memories rushing back; the terror of a behemoth's hoof hovering just overhead, the fear of losing one's grip whilst dangling two stories above the ground, the shaking of the earth, the whirling of the wind. SotC was very much an experience. The music made the experience even more powerful.This music is so satisfying and inspiring... an unparalleled orchestral score, and most certainly a must-buy."
315070,2,Confused,When I was searchig for this product by the AC Delco part number I found it with this vendor. With their link to make sure it would fit my car it said it would not fit. It does fit because AC Delco said it was the right part number and when I received it the part was the correct part. The vendor needs to update their what will fit what part. Next confusion was also created by the vendor; shipping status. This vendor sends out nothing about shipping status. When I inquired I was given a shipping status over one month from the date I inquired. Luckily that status was also wrong because I got the part the in the next couple of days after that status was provided. In the end all worked out okay but the processs was confuising and irritating. Price was right and shipping ended up right. My car was a 2007 Hummer H3.
315088,2,Garner is excellent counterpoint for Baker,"This is a beautiful recording of two players with great sound on the flute. Garner may not have attained the same levels of fame as Baker, but he has many of the same tonal qualities that made Baker so transcendent. He provided a beautiful musical partnership for Baker."
315106,2,AWESOME! INCREDIBLE! Best book in the entire universe!,"This is an absolutely fabulous book with all sorts of information included. You can make your own ornithopter and a ton of other cool items. All details are included. Get a list of awesome house rules. Learn how to take care of orphaned animals. It's all inside. This book is a treasure chest filled with everything that I have ever dreamed of in my 40 something years. It is the perfect book for ALL ages! It is worth buying more than one copy so that you can give them as gifts. I can't say enough about this incredible book. P.S. And no, I am not a personal friend of the Oberon Zell-Ravenheart (although I would be honored to be one)."
315112,2,ABSOLUTELY GREAT!!!,This is one of the best albums Dieter has ever made!!! I like it very much! This album is full of romantic passion music! and ballads are absolutely great!!!
315139,2,Best Time Travel I've Ever Read,"I happened to pick this book up at the library and read it in one sitting. After returning the book, I went out and bought it. I just know I'll want to read it soon again, it's that funny, original, and poignant. Merry-death and Rolf, her outrageously handsome and sexy Viking, are an unforgettable couple. Sandra Hill writes stories that are witty, fast-paced, and totally entertaining. I've bought all of her books since picking up The Last Viking and highly recommend her work."
315167,2,Perfect beach read,"Like the first book in the series, I read this in less than 24 hours - couldn't put it down. Another fun, fast read!"
315337,2,flatware storage,I was looking for a minimal space storage for silverware we inherited from my mother in-law. I wanted to be able to access it easily as well as have it not tarnish. I am very pleased with how this product works. I can put it in a closet out of the way yet get to it easily. This was a great transaction!
315342,2,What a difference!!,"My first horse I acquired when he just turned 3 and now he is 18. Perfect first horse, no vices, eager to learn and please, simply a perfect gentleman. I purchased another horse when we moved to our dream home out in the country. Needless to say, she came with some vices, and I needed something to refer to. I bought the book one evening, and the next morning, out I went to try Clinton Anderson's techniques. I saw immediate results and a change in her that stuck. The book is an easy read and I love that he featured both an English and Western rider. Eventhough Clinton rides Western, I myself dressage, the book still made a lot of sense to me. Because this book helped so much I have a totally different relationship with my new horse. THANK you Clinton!!!!"
315366,2,Awesome 5th! Buy it!!!!,"The Performace: The Cleveland Symphony displays their usual excellence - disciplined, accurate, and beauty of sound. Szell's interpretation sounds unique to my ears - very different from Mravinsky and Muti, but no less authentic or beautiful in a layman's opinion.The Sound: This recording was remastered with the new Direct Stream Digital (DSD) technology and Sony's SBM process. The recording has a warm, bassy sound and a wide stereo image. Just a little bit of tape hiss which is natural for a recording this old. Real nice.I hope Szell's Beethoven symphonies and piano concertos get the same remastering treatment one day."
315389,2,Rubbermaid 3749 Shed,"The shed arrived much sooner than I expected which was a pleasant surprise. Only negative issue was there were no instructions, just two parts lists. It took me all of twenty minutes to assemble-counting the 5 minutes I wasted tearing apart the box looking for the instructions. Excellent value for the money. This is not my first Rubbermaid shed. The other one was purchased 1993. It still looks good and has withstood many harsh winters and wins storms."
315535,2,Another winner!,"Maybe the fourth or fifth of Hall's Stanley Hastings mysteries I've read. And it doesn't disappoint. Love the humour, the writing style, the characters' dialogue. Satisfyingly complex while extremely readable. Stanley is human, fallible and fabulously inept hero! I definitely recommend these."
315612,2,Great Poster,This poster is great. Nothing else to say other than that! The shipping took a bit of time but that did not negatively affect my buying experience. Would def buy from this seller again!
315641,2,Sovereign Grace.....,"Absolutely priceless and a great value, especially at this price. A very worthwhile additionto my Kindle ereader inspirational library."
315673,2,Works like a charm,"We've got two of these systems. These are the first reasonably priced automatic leveling systems I've seen. Accuracy and consistency of sensor is excellent. I suspect that the compressor with these kits isn't exactly heavy duty industrial strength and wouldn't be surprised if it dies after a few years, but any compressor will work with this system."
315768,2,Elas is a star!,"Elsa, and her family have been forced to live at a Bed and Breakfast hotel. It isn't as nice as it sounds, it is actually a homeless shelter. Elsa's mum and stepfather Mack seem to be overwhelmed by the change in circumstances,and Elsa feel it is up to her to make life bearable for them,as well as her younger half sister and brother. This is a very tender book which treats a very grim subject with warmth and humor and realism. Elsa copes with her situation by telling jokes, and her footnotes introduce the reader to the differences in language in the US and England. Once again, Jacqueline Wilson and illustrator Nick Sharrat have combined to make a delightful story that will be enjoyed by the younger reader."
315900,2,great poker mvie,"I saw a review of this movie on Danial Negreanu's web site and had to get it. I'm an avid poker player and I thought ""No Limit"" was the best and most realistic poker movie I have seen. I have no idea what the people who gave it bad marks were thinking!"
316044,2,Fun to hear,"This is a double disc - the first 12 cuts are an album Diahann recorded with Andre Previn in 1960 (which is why I bought the disc) .These songs are great - people are unaware that this woman had great style and was a polished performer - this kind of singing disappeared long ago - it was the days when originality was encouraged - and these folks showed respect for their matterial. She's in great form on these cuts, she shows off shamelessly, but that's okay (I wouldn't be surprised if the young Barbra Streisand listened to her!) However, the rest of the disc is a date she played in a New York club - here it all falls apart. But I recommend the disc anyway, just for the first 12 cuts."
316113,2,BEST BAG I'VE SEEN IN A LONG TIME.,THIS BAG DOES IT ALL. HOLDS MY CAMERA AND VIDEO CAMERA AS WELL AS MANY MANY OTHER THINGS THAT WILL EASILY FIT INTO THE CASE.
316153,2,Better Than Nothing,"My 2 year old loves Jack. When I saw this dvd I was so excited because now she can be on the go and take this along. I have all the episodes Tivo'd but this is nice. I agree with the other reviewers that 4 episodes were not enough, but they will probably release several discs. I don't care for Groundhog Day either, but the other episodes are great."
316164,2,excellent starting book to learn with!,"This is an excellent resource for learning concrete sculpture! Start with this one, then get her other book, ""Creative Concrete Ornaments for the Garden: Making pots, birdbaths..."" for more advanced projects that reinforce your skill leves."
316173,2,Good basic dry shampoo,"This is a good, basic dry shampoo. My teenage daughter, who has very fine hair that tends to get oily pretty quickly, uses it regularly as a quick touch up and it works quickly and well to give her hair a clean, fuller look. My only slight objection is that it has a distinct aroma -- not a bad one, but a noticable perfumy smell. But it's not a bad one, and if you are looking for a dry shampoo this is the best one I have found."
316210,2,"For a female learning the basics, it's great.","For a female with no knowledge of how to dance, or very little rhythem this is a wonderful video.Basic moves to get you in the groove and muliple camera angles make these steps easy to learn. It's the basics of how to make it look like you know how to dance and to get you out on the dance floor (of a typical white female dance club).I'm male...if you're male, I highly discourage you wasting your money to learn these feminine moves. I gave the video to my wife."
316263,2,A textbook even a layman can love,"I'm not a biologist, or even studying biology, but I needed to find a good introduction to evolutionary biology. This textbook was recommended to me by several biologists, and I've found it to be both chock-full of information and engagingly written. Even a layman such as myself, with only a modest scientific background and whose last biology course was way back in high school, could pick this textbook up and follow along. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to know what biologists mean when they talk about evolution."
316347,2,Very Helpful,I downloaded this CD into my iPod and I am ALWAYS asleep before it ends. I love it for those times I am wound a bit too tight.
316363,2,Simply perfect,"Specially the just Two days to deliver at my home in France, Provence. And i don't have to add anything,"
316396,2,perfect for travel,"I bought this for when my friend's baby is here. Baby can sit right up to the our table with my ""big kids"" and she thinks she is too cool. I would consider her activity level to be normal for a 12-month-old, and she has remained safely sitting when I've used it. The seat easily wipes clean, is very light weight, and closes small enough to store almost anywhere. Another thing I like is that it can inflate so she's sitting higher, making it perfect for the dining table.I recommend this booster and think you'll be happy with it."
316474,2,great tool for picking up trash,great tool for picking up trash when out mowing the yard.However it fell of my lap and under the mower wheel. Once the aluminum tubing is bent is no longer useable.Will shop around for something else either cheaper in price or more durable.
316514,2,Twila rocks with a live audience,If you enjoy her studio albums you will find yourself caught up even more with her live worship. Easy to listen to time after time because her remarks between songs are to the point. She feeds off her audience and backup singers as she lifts up the Name of the Lord and lets the glory fall.
316539,2,Tour de Force,"I think Ian McEwan has few peers. Each book only convincesme further that he is one the finest authors writing in English today.I thought Atonement and Amsterdam would be tough to beat. But this book,Saturday, is simply one of the best books I have ever read in my life.By any author of any period. Period."
316585,2,Great rug for the money!,"I was very unsure of ordering a rug without seeing it first because I had never heard of Verona before. However, this is a very nice, heavy rug for the price. I don't know a lot about rugs but I've never seen any rug this size for under $100. In my opinion, it appears to be good quality for the price. I think the list price of $399 is a little off (not superior quality), but certainly worth what Amazon charges.In short, I would recommend this rug to someone who wants a nice, inexpensive rug that they won't have to worry about if it gets dirty (just buy a new one)."
316593,2,"Feel better, not despressed too much.","I am not sure if this product effects my despression, however, I am feeling to be good. Also I can use it as a room light. Even at night or rainy daytime the room is bright with this product."
316595,2,DayLight,"After much research & product comparisons, this light box has proven to be better than ones costing more."
316622,2,babe,"Much like his Ted Williams biography, Montville not only digs up facts and stories about Ruth that, as a sports fan, you can't believe you didn't already know, but writes in a way that only he can do.The insinuation that Babe Ruth might actually be part African American makes it even more interesting especially in light of the Barry Bonds stories of today.Buy 2 of these and give 1 to a friend."
316757,2,Hi,Product was as described and well packaged. A little problem with the shipping but seller responded and immediatley fixed the problem.
316763,2,"The ""enabler"" ...","If you're depressed and looking to keep up that depressed feeling for a bit longer, this album is perfect for this! This definately is NOT your ""happy-times"" collection of songs. Please DO get this, you will figure out that this album has a purpose in life ... which is to get you so down that anything else, however small, will pick up your spirits and make you happy again! Thank you Alice In Chains!"
316775,2,Lucky To Be A Survivor,"A SHORT HISTORY OF NEARLY EVERYTHING is the story of the scientific discoveries which have helped us begin to understand the origin of the human race, the earth and the universe. Bryson includes what is now known about the oceans and the very little that is known about the interior of the earth. The most interesting part of the book for me is the discussion of the origin of life in all its forms and the various theories about the evolution of the human species.Bryson is an excellent writer and he manages to make his story very entertaining. It is difficult to read this book without gaining a greater appreciation for both our insignificance in the universe and also our incredible good fortune in finding ourselves among the survivors on this planet."
316870,2,Lon Milo DuQuette,If one wants to understand the Crowley's THOTH Tarot this book is the Best. Concise and complete Lon has captured Crowley'sEsscence.
317076,2,Lots of fun in the bathroom,"If you're looking for a fun little bathroom, this is it. The toilet seat lifts up, the medicine cabinet opens to reveal an assortment of items on the shelves (sticker). The cabinet below the sink also opens. It comes with a potty chair that also has a lid that opens. And the claw-footed tub with a hand-held shower head is cute. It's great fun for kids who are learning about brushing their tooth, bathing, and using the potty."
317082,2,Wayyyyy better than I expected. Sluggo is still the best.,"Atmosphere is my favorite group, but I'm not affraid to admit when they put out a weak album (Lucy Ford). This album is not as good as Overcast, but much much better than Lucy Ford. Slug said this was the official follow up to Overcast, and thats exactly what it sounds like to me. Slug sounds more hungry and passionate than ever on this album, and the beats are just brilliant. This is the underground album of the year, Fantastic Damage had my vote before this came out, but damn, this ish is raw. If your looking for something as good as Overcast, such a thing does not exist, if you want to hear something similar than this is your best bet, also se7en Headshots. If you thought Lucy Ford was the best Atmosphere release, look elsewhere. Slugs back, its about time."
317137,2,Works and here's how I drink it....,This product works for me. I take this with the NOW MSM product... the two worst tasting supplements on the planet!However here's how I drink without puking:1. squeeze 1 lemon into glass2. add a little agave sweetener (raw & organic preferable and honey won't work on this one)3. waterMix and gulp down and you will be good to go!!!
317163,2,"10g is out, you need the new book.","The title says it all. Well there's one additional tidbit of information that's important, there are 1200 pages in this book. In 1200 pages you can include a lot of things. You can include 300 pages on SQL for instance. And some of the new subjects like the new sections on The Grid (that's the g in 10g) are covered here for the first time.The Grid is coming, as of yet it's just getting started, but in the next edition of this book it'll be a hundred pages, if it isn't a whole book in itself.As an Oracle professional, at almost any level from developing an application, to tuning the performance, to security, to 'simple' things like installation, this is the one book you need to have on your desk ready for immediate use.After this, it's kind of hard to say much about this book. You may want individual books on tuning or security or whatever if that is your primarily responsibility, but here in one volume is the basic for the whole thing."
317243,2,"It is administrators guide, not implementors guide","This is good for beginners and administrators to get an understanding of the SSH. After reading it, you will know, how to set up and configure the SSH.However, it will not give you details of the SSH protocol for an implementor. I had to look into chapter 7 of ""VPNs Illustrated: Tunnels, VPNs, and IPsec by Jon C. Snader"" to get an overview of how the SSH protocol really works behind the doors. This chapter gave pictorial descriptions as opposed to textual descriptions in the SSH RFCs.In the next version, I would expect this book to contain a chapter giving implementation details of the SSH protocol."
317282,2,So Long and Farewell,"This is by far some of the best tunes that have ever come out of San Antonio, TX. Too bad it could not last langer. in early 2004 Casey left the band. Mike and Chris continued on with a new addition. The drums really bring out a little more in the music. Altuhough they do not perform as the Bop Kings, they are a must see for anyone in the SA area. Lokk for show listing for the Copy Cats."
317335,2,I feel like this video is the bet kept secret...,"I remember being a kid and seeing these commercials for BUNS OF STEEL!!! So I decided to try it. I am average in size and I really don't need to lose any weight, but my backside could use some serious firming up. I've been doing lunges and squats which has helped some, but this video has given me better results after just 3 days! I've done this video three days in a row, and I can SEE my thighs and butt firming up. I swear the cellulite seems to be going away, and it has been there forever. The workout is hard though, your legs will be CRYING from pain the first time you do this. You might cry too...:) Just do as many reps as you can when you start, and try to keep up. I am looking forward to how good I will look after a month of this, there is no doubt I will look great because this video is intense toning. I like Greg...he's funny and keeps you motivated!"
317354,2,It was an excellent purchase and my husband loved it.,I chose this rating because it was an excellent choice. The coloring and material were what I would have expected it to be. My husband loved it. I would recommend it to my friends and family.
317391,2,Wow,"This may be overstating the case a little, and I admit that being an old Main frame person the idea of a drive that fits on my keychain that I can carry with me impresses me to no end.In these days of 100 gig HD's 256m doesn't seem like much but nothing is more portable. Perfect for a person who needs to install demo software at a customer location, or perfect for a presentation that needs to be put on a machine.You don't get much more small and compact that this drive. Fits on my keychain can carry it just about anywhere and plugs and plays.In fact the only downside to the drive IS the small size. I'm the type that loses my head if it isn't attached and loses his keys even easier. Although the drive does have privacy settings so a user would have to wipe and re-install without a password it still an expensive item to lose.Of course if you are more careful than me about such things then it will really make your life easier."
317491,2,Lasts all day,The only lip color that I have used that lasts all day. I put it on and then blot after a minute or so and finish with lip gloss. No other product that I have used has compared to this one.
317495,2,Deep Blue,"A little slow at times, but a good read. Love the mystery that was involved and always like reading about sunken treasure."
317521,2,The Illustrated Dictionary and Concordance of the Bible,"It is a fantastic book to look up anything from the bible, like a dictionary and it gives you scriptures to look up regarding what you are looking up.The only thing I found dissappointing is that I purchased them used, one was in great condition, the other stated ""good"" but had coffee spilled all over the side of it."
317579,2,Be carful,"I love this thermos but this is the 4th one I,ve purchased. If you knock it over just right u can break the plastic catch. This means u will have to lock the top after every sip. Other than that I just keep buying them."
317582,2,Best water bottle ever!,"I bbought this bottle for one handed no spill (or drip) stay cold, hold full size ice cube holding, easy clean operation and that is what I got. I would expect no less from THERMOS and that is what I got. I havn't tried it on hot (coffee)beverages yet but it will keep ice water with cubes cold in a locked car cold during a mid-July afternoom!"
317630,2,Lots of fun,My mother got this for my son as a gift. We put the transmitter outside on our back porch under the awning. Our reciever gets the signal without any trouble at all. We look at it every morning and have found it to be fun to look at. I would recommend this product to anyone who likes to watch changes in the weather.
317691,2,Great toy,My cat loves to play with the ball. We placed it by one of our heat vents and she loves to sleep on it.
317694,2,excellant Sharon Sala book,This is a fast-paced mystery laced with Sharon Sala's usual strong characters. The love story complements the mystery very effectively -- I read it in one sitting and was sorry to see it end.
317701,2,Incredible artist - whole family loves! Exception Christmas music,David Arkenstone is one of our favorite new age artists. We have a dozen of his CDs in our collection. This CD as well as Enchantment are excellent alternatives to shopping mall Christmas jango. Tranquil.
317756,2,Nothing Else To Say,"1999's ""Filth and Dreams"" contained the haunting ""If I Had the Heart"". Six years later, Corinne, Andy and the gang dismiss any thoughts of their being a blip on the screen with ""Where Our Love Grows"", an album that contains the haunting, beautiful, and very said ""When The Laughter Is Over.""There is nothing else to say. This is the pinnacle of achievement and I look forward to the next. Nothing, save for a performance of the Elgar Violin Concerto, has ever left me speechless, but ""When the Laughter Is Over"" did. A triumph."
317792,2,Beautifully produced,Produced with the same eye to delectable detail as my favourite recipe books. A delight to the eye and a challenge to the intelligence....
317802,2,Everything seems to function,"Everything works, but seems a little light and flimsy. The one thing it can't do is charge a phone with the hand crank alone. I guess you'll need some solar power for that (haven't tried yet)! Not quite sure it was worth the price because it is tiny!!"
317807,2,This book is about...,I like this book because I like its' newspaper. It showed me how Lily Rosie and Tess put a newspaper together. It's a lot like the newsletter than Morgan and Julia and I write.
317822,2,GREAT!!,THis book was awesome and almost perfect! It's about a girl who discises herself as a boy to become a knight. She hits puberty then and has to trust people with her secret! Read the other three too!AWESOME!
317837,2,A great puzzle,"The Darth structure was hard to evaluate. On the one hand, the construction directions were pretty complicated for this toy -- I was called in for consulting advice more than a few times and, at least once, I was called in to provide some muscle when putting a couple of parts together. There aren't any standard lego blocks in this toy as these are more construction-oriented. On the other hand, the standard Lego kits have become pretty easy for our 10-year old and this provided an extra challenge for him that was worth it. Once built, it's reasonably durable - in our house, it even held together with minor repairs when our 7-year old was curious if it could 'fly' from the bedroom window. I knocked it down a point because it's not very flexible - I thought there should be some range of motion for movement. Overall, I thought that this was a good toy, worth recommending."
317839,2,this is not a compilation,"just one thing. this album is not a compilation of some of the excellent song of le orme. this is a ""new"" record with the original members on drums and bass (michi de rossi and aldo tagliapietra)but instead of the original keybordist (antonio pagliuca) there are two keybordists. Personally i liked the new versions of some of the songs (canzione dámore, india) but on the others i prefer the original versions (collage, gioco de bimba, sguardo verso il celo, la porta chiusa). It is a good album but if you can, get the original albums ""collage"", ""uomo di pezza"", ""contrapunti"" and ""verita nascoste"" all of them are masterpieces."
317975,2,Beautiful Soothing Music,"The music on this CD is very soothing and very beautiful. I'm hardly an expert on international music - I got this CD because my husband really tries to make a point to play music to go along with the cuisine for our evening meal - and this is very very nice. Very mellow and very soothing. I listened to this just yesterday as I was making a double batch of gyoza. I've come online to see about getting another CD or two of this series. The recipes that come with the CD are OK, not fantastic, not too different from what I already have - perfect for someone just starting to learn asian cuisine."
318003,2,Raises fascinating questions about love,"This is a marvelous work of research on a society with fundamentally alternative traditions of family and sexual life. Cai Hua's study of Na culture (otherwise called the Moso) raises universal questions for our assumptions about love, marriage, and community.--author of A Galaxy of Immortal Women: The Yin Side of Chinese Civilization"
318013,2,This pillow is a DREAM!,"I had bought and returned a competitor's product, so I was skeptical before I received this one. I love the Snoozer Dreamweaver! It is thick enough, but not too thick, pliable, but not too stiff...they really got it perfect."
318040,2,Awesome Game!,"I absolutley love this game. The guns are amazing, and the graphics are good. You can play as three different characters and each are awesome. The point of the game is to take out General Song's ""Deck of 52"". There are other factions like the Russian Mafia(My personal favorite), China, South Korea, and the Allies. They're contracts have nothing to do with the deck of 52 but they usually involve blowwing things up. You get money for destroying things! You can hijack any vehicle, even a helicopter or tank! I love stealing helicopters and blowing up enemies to make extra cash. There's only one thing I have a problem with. The game is incredibly frustrating. I'm up to the Ace of Clubs in the Deck of 52 and it's so hard and I keep dying. Sometimes I feel like smashing the controller. Overall, the game's great!"
318041,2,Great For My 5 Year Old,"Look, I got this for my 5 year old son who likes to play 'hiking' with his own gear. I wouldn't hike out into the mountains with it and trust it completely, but it does seem to work well in our house. He likes the bright colors and that it comes with a string to keep around his neck. I will order another one for my daughter who wants to play too. I would recommend to anyone because of the price, but if you are looking for a 'grown-up' one, spend a little more."
318121,2,Amazing pocket scale,"Everything is alright, but the scale power button didn't work correctly out of the box. Contacted the numbers on the papers and it turned into a big cluster[] to fix. The manufacturers were not helpful in the slightest. So I just left it. If I hold the scale upside down and hit the button in a certain way, it works though. Manufacturer problem, not a seller problem. I am still pleased with the scale.Once it is on, it works awesome. Amazingly accurate. A good way to test the accuracy of yours is to use coins. Great scale when I can get it to turn on--I just use the auto off feature and let it go off. I never thought i'd be the one saying this; but you get what you pay for."
318147,2,Wonderful find!,I was actually looking for another book and stumbled across this one. It was a wonderful find for a gift for my parents. Great pictures that brought back so many memories of their youth...a truly wonderful gift for anyone who's interested in Milwaukee's Polish history!
318220,2,Outstanding,"What a carefully constructed work of love. The author's portrayal of the anarchist, socialist and labor movements in Chicago is riveting. I empathized with the desperation of the activists even as I disagreed with their rhetoric at times. Lucy & Albert Parsons and August Spies appeared to be absolutely dedicated to labor and civil rights activism. What a far-reaching legacy this event left behind."
318236,2,Amazing!,"First of all, to those who grumble about historical accuracy - seriously?!?! Does anything about this show suggest that that was the aim? Secondly, wow, this is probably the sexiest cast on television. Ladies, if you've been waiting for a show full of (gasp) male eye candy, here it is! Thirdly, it's a good story featuring some great performances. It's just sad that Andy Whitefield won't be back for season 2, as I'm having a hard time imagining anyone replacing him........."
318282,2,Favorite childhood book,"When my niece asked us to give her a book for her new baby boy's library as a baby shower present, this is the book my son choose as his favorite. (He is now 22 and still remembers the story line.) He thought the plot was great and apparently thought the machines were really cool when we read it to him. It has a wonderful moral that prompted many discussions about protecting the environment when he was very young. We're big fans of all of Bill Peet's books."
318342,2,Wonderful block set,"Well made with smooth corners and edges. I love that there is no paint to chip off. Feels like these will last for a long time. Both of my girls (5 and 2) love playing with them. The only downside is that they are heavy when all together in the box. I think with all the plastic toys around, we forget how much real wooden toys weigh. Well worth the price."
318357,2,Works very well,This is a very simple yet solid little MP3 player. The software installation worked fine on the first try on a Win XP system. I was listening to music within 5 minutes. It's very light and fits easily in my pocket. The included ear-buds are good quality - better than I expected. It has the standard random and repeat features that a CD player might have. My only complaints are minor: It's easy to accidentally turn the unit on while it's in your pocket which wastes batteries. And it would be nice to have more control over the equalizer (it has a few pre-sets included). Overall I'm happy with it.
318370,2,WOW!!!,"In the Round in Your face never sounded so good, VHS leaves your earnign for digital and here it is. The Video Archive material is anything short of phoenominal. Great to hear updated performance tracks. ""Rocket"" is incredible through a good audio system. Must have for any rock fan."
318421,2,My Opinion of Prayers for the Dead,"This is one of the best books I have read so far, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I have recently discovered the works of both Faye and Jonathan Kellerman, two excellent authors.Prayers for the Dead is an intriguing book, and I couldn't put it down.The characters were so human you almost felt as if you knew them personally, especially the Sparks family. The plot takes some wonderful twists and turns, and it is apparent that Faye has done her homework in regards to religious history.This is a fabulous book and I would recommend it to anyone to read. You definitely will not be disappointed, especially if you are a fan of horror/medical fiction.I am an avid reader of John Saul, Andrew Neiderman, V. C. Andrews, Stephen King, and others and Mrs. Kellerman is definitely in the same caliber as these beloved authors of mine.After reading this book, your literary appetite will be longing for more of Faye's masterpieces!"
318438,2,I love UGG,These are beyond comfortable. Love them! And they last forever (this is my second pair). Highly recommend these for everyone
318457,2,Gut wrenching licks with machine gun drumming!!!,An extremely good debut effort from one of Virginia's best death metal bands. A lot of good technical brutality with just enough speed and thrash flavor to make it a must have for 2007!!!
318475,2,Street Classic,"These guys are tight, and straight from the Bay area...my stopmin gounds. This album is definitely worth checkin out. Its the best underground style of rap Ive heard in a while."
318480,2,Mood music for cyborgs,"Piano dukes it out with drum machines live on stage, without a net. Kind of cool, kind of crotchety, kind of creepy, elegant, absurd. Track 3 is my favorite."
318678,2,Heart & Soul,Beautiful album. Listened to these songs when I was younger. Once I had my own job I ordered this album for myself. The Winans...classic.
318679,2,Another view of the Trio Sonatas and quite a good one,"This recording is an alternate view of Zelenka's Trio Sonatas under the Berlin Classics Label, alternate from that of Holliger et al or the several Czech, Italian and other German masters who have climbed this Everest of a Composition. Undertaking the task first done in modern times by Holliger and Jaccotett they come through with flying colors. The playing is artistic, playful and exhuberant at times and appropriately restrained at other times but always showing fine craftsmanship. I especially like the ornamentation, which sustains the tension or which mollifys it in a tasteful manner which shows a subtle sense of liberation. Good work on the oboes!"
318701,2,Works great for us!,"We have had these shakers for about a year. We love them. We use for shakes, carry drinks, etc.... They do not leak."
318721,2,Happy Customer,"Very pleased to find this style of athletic shoe. Why are simple ""high-top"" (AKA ""mid-top"") athletic shoes so difficult to find?"
318782,2,The best U.S TV Show ever,"The Fugitive (on paper) was always a predictable bore. Every single episode ran the same;1. Kimble is in a new place, with a new job2. Kimble helps someone find happpiness/peace/refuge3. Kimble finds himself in a very tricky situation4. Kimble escapes by the skin of his teeththe joy and genius of this incredible TV show is that although you know exactly what's going to happen, it's still exciting and watchable. The whole 129 episodes ! In my opinion, its still the very best U.S TV series ever made and years ahead of its time. An absolute pleasure to watch for all ages. I watched the re-runs when I was a kid, and still get the same pleasure watching them now. An excellent series you just have to have."
318851,2,Wear Ever Backpack Lounger,"I have been using this chair for a few weeks now, it was a fathers day gift from my lovely wife. It is VERY easy to get comfortable in it and I do have back and leg pain issues so its a good lightweight chair. Compact and handy for loading other items like blankets and towels, personal items, etc. in the large pouch sewn into the back. Neck/headrest is adjustable for the shorter torso-ed people. Gripes are ther is a slight discofort when fully reclined due to a bar across the bottom of the chair you can feel. Needs another pocket on it when in use for items such as cell phones and portable GPS units too. We are boaters who beach frequently so you gotta have all the toys with you! Great product.WearEver LR-4 Deluxe Backpack LoungerWearEver LR-4 Mesh Backpack Lounger"
318884,2,Liked the India references and character studies,"This book was a bit slow for me, although I liked the references to India. An interesting glimpse into the varying caste systems. The ending kept me wishing for more and wondering what happened to the main character. Good read for a rainy day"
318959,2,Very Comfy Socks! Great quality,"This is a DEAL! these socks are very good quality, they are thick and comfortable. They stretch and they don't shrink too bad in the dryer. I would definitely purchase these again. I use these as gym socks and they are great for any kind of training, walking, running, or even daily use. My only complaint is after several washes they still lint pretty heavily on the bottom of your feet when you take the socks off. Outside of that I love them."
319094,2,Excellent Photo Printer At A Reasonable Price,Epson really has photo printers down to a science at this point. Install and setup is quite easy. The printer takes up a bit more real estate than we've come to expect single-purpose printers to do these days but this is more than made up for by the prints which are comparable to what you get processing through a retail store.A very nice photo printer at a reasonable price. Great for the amateur photographer.
319131,2,Window Visor,"This product is terrific. It was the best deal (read: least expensive), but no loss in quality compared against other (pricier) products. Installation took minutes with easy to follow instructions. The visors for the rear windows were mislabeled: right was left, and left was right, but I figured it out without any time delay. I definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for the same."
319141,2,great phone except,It would be a perfect phone if it had speed dial. Other than that the phone is great. I had purchased other phones that were more expensive and other less expensive and I ended returning them. I got so fed up with trying to find a phone that worked with a long lasting battery that I got online and saw this one. I'm so happy with this phone.
319221,2,Wonderful stretching!,"I love this routine and use it a couple time a week in the morning to get by body ready for the day. You start with a very nice warm up for breathing, neck stretch, eagle arm stretching, hip rotations and cat stretches. Then, you move on to downward dog, high lunge series, pigeon, and forward stretching. Then brief children pose rest, and on to more yoga poses including forward bends, thunderbolt, knee to chest, side twists, bridge, then ending in savasana. The pace is very good and you hold the positions for the perfect amount of time. My whole body feels fully stretched after this routine. Also, you get clips of all of Stott's other DVDs which is very helpful. The only downfall to this DVD is the chaptering as the other person mentioned (too much chaptering). Also, I wish the savasana was a bit longer and I wish they didn't come on afterwards and starting talking when I would have like the quiet time. I look forward to trying the other 2 DVDs for this series."
319248,2,Greatest show ever,"Absolutely love this show, I forgot how much I enjoyed it. Great cast and story line. Can't stop watching these people!"
319303,2,"Great book, but go with the short version","""Reconstruction: America's Unfinished Revolution"" is a fine work of scholarship on an important and often-underlooked period of American History. For anyone interested in the Civil War or Black History, this reading is essential.The book is well-written, thoroughly researched, and highly educational. I would give it 5 stars on that score. However, it is very slow-going and dense. This is one of those books I have to put down after 5 or 10 pages because I can't take it any more. I've switched over to the abridged version,A Short History of Reconstruction. If you are a casual reader, I recommend the same. Even that is a dense read, but I'm finding is more manageable, and I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything substantial."
319305,2,Geoff Wilson's Complete book of Fishing Knots & Rigs,"Este es un libro internacional, especial para aquellas personas que están interesadas en mejorar sus tecnicas de armado de equipos de pesca. Aunque es un libro en inglés, para los guías de pesca de habla hispana les será de mucha utilidad. Con lo que respecta a los dibujos de pesca son extremadamente detallistas y faciles de seguir. Considero que es uno de los mejores libros, su costo, la calidad del papel y el trabajo en dibujos y la forma sencilla de escribir permite es un libro obligado de trabajo de todos los guias de pesca y de los pescadores deportivos."
319339,2,"Offensive and Funny, My kind of Flick","This movie seemed to get panned by the critics and really kind of flew under the radar for a Happy Gilmore production, but I thought it was really funny and comedicly well written and acted, one of the few movies I've actually laughed out loud at, the premise and story line are ridicules, the humor is offensive and juvenile, but for any adult that still has a fratboy sense of humor this is good filthy fun."
319426,2,Excellent series,We're only through the 1st two espisodes but are loving it.Now that we've discovered how to display the historic notation subtitles it's even more interesting. They don't interfere at all and provide important historical facts.Our rating is 4 instead of 5 only because this is a used set and one of thedisc holders is broken so the disc isn't secure in its case. The discs themselves are in perfect condition.
319515,2,The book club,It is a real girlie book ....and one where I could relate to the characters from people and friends in my own entourage......worth a read.
319673,2,GREAT GAME,"I PLAY THIS GAME FOR A YEAR NOW AND STILL LOVE IT, BUT THE CONTROL WAS REALLY BAD U NEED A JOYSTICK TO PLAY THIS GAME GOOD, IFOR SOME HOW I CAN'T PLAY THE MULTIPLAYER, IT PREATTY HARD FOR ME TO SIGN UP FOR MULTIPLAYER, I HAVE FINISH THE CAMPAIN ALREADY CLOSE TO A HUNDEAD TIMES ALREADY AND START TO THINK I SHOULD GO PLAY OTHER NEW WWII GAMES, MY CHOICE IS CALL OF DUTY A VERY COOL GAME I HEARD ABOUT, BYE."
319728,2,Absolutely love it! Best toy ever bought so far.,I bought this toy for my son since he's 5 month old. He absolutely loves it. Every day he spends 2 or 3 hours in it and explores all the fun parts and entertains himself without help from anybody else. It is a huge life saver for me and my husband as well. Finally we could sit together to have an uninterrupted meal. :-) The product is also very easy to assemble. The adjustable length of the legs provide extended usage as the kids grow bigger. It's absolutely the best toy for kids before they could stand up. I would definitely recommend it to all my friends.
319786,2,Denning concludes a well-written but disappointing trilogy,"Star Wars: The Swarm War is the final book in the Dark Nest trilogy. OVerall, several of my complaints from the previous two books continue. There is too much of the older generation and not enough of the younger. While Jacen Solo does play a stronger role in this book than the previous, I have to say I found the conclusion predictable and disappointing. It's not that THe Swarm War is a bad book, because it's not. I enjoyed it, but overall it seems to take much of what occurred in the New Jedi Order and simply overlook it or undo it. I have to admit to getting tired of Luke being the total hero, something I had thought the Star Wars expanded universe had moved passed. Like I stated before not a bad book, but a standard book, concluding a ytilogy that was perhaps ruined by higher expectations."
319870,2,Imminently Adoptable,"My life doesn't run like clockwork, and the perfect wine isn't always chilled in the frig when I need it. These sleeves are the perfect answer. My niece gave me one, which was... adopted... by someone at a party, so I'm now on my second one. I keep it in the freezer, and it's ready whenever a quick chill is needed. Put a bottle in, throw it in the frig, go walk the dog for 10-15 minutes and, voila. I don't think it's meant for a champagne bottle but, in a pinch, I've squeezed one in. It's also a great way to keep a bottle cold in transit with almost no moisture/sweating. It flattens, so fits in a purse for the return trip... that is, unless someone else sees how great it is and decides to adopt it."
319946,2,FROM BACK COVER,"With a shattering blow to Miranda Bennett's young heart, Gabriel Deerhorn had extinguished their tender love. A wise soul, he'd known nave Miranda needed independence more than matrimony. Suddenly she was back in Freedom valley.. and her nearness was both torment and treasure. For once, gallant Gabriel fed his own desire - he settled Miranda into his mountaintop home, and with a single, tenuous touch, their passion was reborn. Could it be that their thwarted past was just a stepping-stone to their radiant future...?"
319985,2,Beating out Her First!!!,"I'm biased. I loved Macy Gray's first CD so much, I bought copies for friends. I was worried that her second cd would not be as solid, tight, or melt together like the first. Miss Gray, my hat is off. I tossed the CD in, turned lights low, and sipped a beer as I listened to the words melt me into the lazyboy. It's the perfect music for those all night conversations, coffee shops, or just to set a light R&B/Funk mood. In adition, it is one of the most erotic records I've heard. Macy has a voice that seems to come from her very soul. In my opinion, it can only be matched by ""Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered"", by Ella Fitzgerald. ""Oblivion"", ""Don't come Around"", and ""Freak Like Me"" are the backbone of this must have CD."
319995,2,Great!,I have had this kitchen for quite a few years now. I have 2 children of my own that play with it plus I run a daycare out of my home. It has been through all sorts of rough and tough play and some great pretend play. It does not show ANY signs of wear yet. It's a great toy. In fact some of my daycare kids who are older still play with it. I rotate my toys every few months but this toy I never put away. My daycare kids use this every day! Great product!
320036,2,The Best Socks Ever,"I walk four miles a day six days a week, these are really great socks! I have already bought more and some for my husband."
320063,2,It's made of glass. Treat it such!!,"We've had the Braun for several years now. Like it so much that we bought one for my parents 2 years ago. They are still on their first carafe; we our on our second. Ours has fallen off the top of the piled high drying rack several times and bounced on the linoleum floor, surviving all except the final fall. Yes it did break. I've broken drinking glasses that have fallen the same height. With a little care, this carafe should last you. Ours has been through the dishwasher umpteen times as well as just been rinsed out and set by the sink on the rack with no ill effect.The one drawback: this carafe is hard to find and expensive. If it makes anyone feel any better, I just priced out new Braun coffee makers and they've gone up in price about $15. They all seem to have a little digital clock on the front now. This makes the replacement carafe a little more in line with the maker price."

320152,2,. . . beautiful and haunting . . .,"This is an absolute gorgeous CD, both the lyrics and melodies. The acoustic guitar, violin and cello add incredible beauty. Michael McDonald provides background vocals. I own almost every CD and LP by Mickey Newbury, and I think this is his very best work. Highly recommended."
320173,2,Ultima 9: Ascension.,"Ultima 9: Ascension, is undoubtly the slowest game engine I have ever seen. I have a p2 450 with 382 megs of ram and the Diamond Viper 770 and the game is painfully slow. Also Ulitma 9 is extremely buggy even after you install the 1.05f patch. Featuring random crashes and lock ups. (See Gamespot's news) There are numerous errors that prevent the user from completing quests and thus finishing the game. All this being said Ultima is an amazingly detailed outdoor environment, and beautiful graphics engine. The game is very fun and engaging, well worth the money. The bottom line is if you have the patients to dealer with an absurdly slow game engine, and frequent crashes get this game now. If not wait until Ultima has finally fixed most of the problems (I don't think they will ever get all of them fixed), and there is a system on the market capable of playing game reasonable well."
320199,2,George Washington Gomez by Americo Paredes,"Americo Pardes is a wonderful author. He also writes poems.George Washington Gomez is a depressing book. It's depressing because Gumersindo Gomez died, at the beginning. It shows great leadership towards, fighting for what is right it also gives you confidences for standing up for your goals.The Texans Mexicans showed that everyone struggles, and that everyone isn't easy.One struggle was crossing the Rio Grande Valley. Gualinto needed to provide for his family, since Gumersindo past away.George Washington Gomez is a racial masterpiece, towards Mexicans (Latinos).Which I believe is cruel, and mistaken killing innocents isn't the way to go. For example The killing of Gumersindo didn't have a caused at all. Texas Ranger needed to look back, and realized that people do have families, to provide for. I also believe everyone wants a safe future. I suggested you to read George W. Gomez."
320204,2,Excellent first work,"I enjoyed the content of this book. Ms. Winslow developed the characters in a concise manner. I had such a feeling for the characters, where at points throughout the book I loved and hated all the characters. The suspense towards the end was intriguing, and totally unexpected. This was a great first effort."
320304,2,Son's GF couldn't put it down!,Purchased at the recommendation of a friend as a christmas present for son's girlfriend (both politically active twenty-somethings). She couldn't put it down! Now I'm dying to read it myself.
320339,2,Great Old School Country Music,"Wylie and the Wild West Show country music is a perfect blend of the old school unique lyrics combined with great music. Ideal for the person who enjoys real country and not just the typical ""corporate crossover"" stuff that all sounds just the same. If you miss the way country music used to sound, then try Wylie. Have several of his CDs and MP3s. It's all good!"
320430,2,very soothing,"My clients love this CD. I had no idea how many people are annoyed by new age-y music while being massaged. Perhaps annoyed is a little strong. However, I've never had so many compliments on what music was being played during a massage until I started playing classical. It has all been positive."
320468,2,A Most Perfect Delight,"I love Romeo and Juliet by Prokofiev, but I hang on every fantastic note of Cinderella. Do not let the price make you think this recording is not worth three times as much. Ashkenzay makes the Cleveland Orchestra shine with every note. Nothing gets thrown away anywhere whether it is the antics of the step-sisters or the incredible waltz, the casting of spells, the frantic stroke of midnight or the soul wrenching finale. You may find recordings almost as good, but you will never find anything like this. Everyone I have played this for is astonished at the sound and passion. I love being able to hear all of the notes that dart back and forth under the melody that other orchestras throw away. Beautiful. Perfect. Magnificent in every way. You must hear this to believe it. I am on my way to buy another one for a friend."
320491,2,excellent jazz song collection,i took a chance when i bought this album....i had seen the film and was impressed with the music....man does it deliver...fantastic singing by ms.reeves and cool playing by the rest of the band.
320581,2,Brunelleschi's Dome,A very lucid introduction to the latter part of the early renaissance. Gives the reader a new appreciation for the way in which building principles used during the Roman Empire remain relevant today. You can enjoy this book and still be informed.
320609,2,The Ransom of Mercy Carter,"I liked the book a lot. It had very good detail.It always made you wonder what was going to happen. It made you seem you were there and that you knew Mercy.The best part of this book was when she has to choose wether to stay with the indians or go back to her father.The worst part is when her sister, stepmom are killed and when the indians attack the settlement.The author did a good job at the setting. It made you feel like you were there. Also the character Mercy was explined so well it seem you knew her."
320688,2,Did the trick,"Bought two sets on a special. Easy to install, although installation instructions could have suggested some measurements how far apart to space the pulleys when mounting them to the ceiling - minor suggestion. My bikes are old and heavy and it raised them no problem."
320713,2,PASSIONATE LOVE,"THIS WONDERFUL LOVE STORY WAS TRULY AMAZINGLY BETWEEN LORD MILSTEAD ""FITCH"", WITH THE LOVELY VIRGINAL HILLARY, WHO WAS RAISING HIS CHILD, HE NEVER KNEW ABOUT, TIL NOW. GOOD READ!!!!"
320729,2,One of the best Greatest Hits collections,"This greatest hits collection is chalk full of hits from a great artist. Included is songs we all know, ""Physical"", ""I Honestly Love You"", ""Twist Of Fate"", the Grease songs, the Xanadu songs (including my personal fav ONJ song ""Magic""), and of course her early work which ventured in to country. My only complaint about this cd is the exclusion of her work from her late 80's attempted comeback album The Rumour. ""The Rumour"" (written by Elton John and features him on backing vocals) and ""Can't We Talk It Over In Bed"" are 2 quality songs which should have been included her instead of the Grease Megamix.Overall, die-hard and casual fans of Olivia will enjoy this cd, you'll find all the hits you know and may even find songs you didn't know but will grow to enjoy (as I did with ""Sam"", ""Have You Never Been Mellow"" and ""Please Mr. Please""), this is one of the best greatest hits collections I've ever purchased."
320839,2,The best on the market that I have tried.,"This little piece of hardware is worth getting. I've tried em all folks and this bad Larry tops them all. Definatly worth buying two so that way when one wears out, you have a spare. The only thing missing, is an iPod charger....so make sure you buy one if you plan on going for a long ride. If everything was perfect, we wouldn't have to write consumer ratings, eh?"
320951,2,Great sound,"I bought this same model from best buy installed it with ease in a 95 Nissan pickup, I used the factory mounts and it all in and it worked great. Best radio I have had. Just need to put better speakers in the truck"
320953,2,Good stuff,"Straight-forward language artfully used, alternating prose poems and free verse. Ignatow's writing expresses the implications of an existential world view for an ordinary human living in today's strange, interesting world. Beautiful work, without being self-conciously ornate. I recommend it to thoughtful readers who appreciate well written contemporary poetry. This isn't the stuff of ""slam""--as the title says, it's an ordinary voice, in a respectful whisper void of vanity."
321010,2,Linked in the business world,"In ""Linked"" we have a rare opportunity to listen to a gifted teacher use narrative examples to explain his efforts to understand how the web and the internet are networked and organized. Barabasi shares with us his break-through concepts that show the web is not a random connection of computers and servers, but rather an organized network that continues to develop based on growth and choice. He then goes on to illustrate how many other areas of our lives can be better understood by viewing them as networks that follow the same development principals of growth and choice.I believe ""Linked"" will become a clasic text for those who want to apply these network concepts to the business world as well as those whose first interest is the world of science. Why do some new business formats or new products or services take off while ohers fail? A careful study of ""Linked"" and the concepts of hubs, growth and choice may help illustrate and explain the reasons."
321169,2,Storyline ....,"Since Amazon hasn't posted an editorial review, here's the description from the back of the book to help you decide if this book is for you: From the back cover: ""Like the Thorn Birds ... Greenstone has all the ingredients of a hit ... guild, grief, and love in a story of revenge, manipulation, and fate."" .... ""There was only dead silence. And then her mind went blank, unable to grasp the horror that had shattered her childhood ... Even from the ruins of a tragic moment, Juliette Peridot would emerge a beautiful young woman with a spirit that could not be defeated by either the harshness of the New Zealand wilderness or the cruelty of those who would betray her. Pursued by shameful secrets of forbidden love and violent revenge, she struggled for a dream her heart refused to surrender ... until fiery passions so long denied exploded in a triumphant moment of truth and love."""
321173,2,The Practice of the Presence of God,"This is an amazing and insightful book. The truth in these pages (though few) are great examples and reminders to Christians who want to grow with/in God and to be a shining example of Christ like action and attitude. With all the ""garbage"" available in the media - this little book is a great anchor."
321198,2,Not bad,"Good iron, holds lots of water and is easily filled and produces lots of steam. Bad point is that the temp. dial is easily turned by mistake. I have ironed with this twice so far and both times I accidently changed the setting two or three times during the ironing session. If you glance it with your finger it will move and it is located in a spot that is easy to come into contact with when handling the iron. Aside from that, it appears to be a good iron thus far."
321212,2,Good Historic Resource,"This is a reprint of a 1920's bungalow catalogue. This slim (120 page) volume contains plans for some seventy houses. Most examples contain an exterior phot or perspective rendering and a floor plan. Some examples contain interior views. There is also a section on interior components such as dors, hardware, buitl-ins. This part would be a good resource for the person interested in an authentic restoration of a bungalow. I found the floor plans to be the most valuable part of this book, since most current books on bungalows do not contain plans. It is not a great single-source book, howver for the low price it is an excellent complimentrary resource."
321264,2,Great Heath Ledger movie,This is one of the last movies i've seen of Heath ledger. It was a great movie. Since watching Heath in THE DARK KNIGHT I became a fan and had to watch all his movies. This one is one of my favorites. I had never heard of Ned Kelly so I was also interested in learning more about him and how Heath brought his character to life. Heath was more than an amazing actor. He knew how to bring his characters to life and make them likeable and real. I highly recommend this film even if your not a Heath Ledger fan.
321306,2,Great Basic Heart Monitor,"This is my first HM. I just wanted something that would give me my current rate and keep track of basic workout stats (time, max/avg/low HR). This one does just what I need. The band is reasonably comfortable. Took me a bit to figure out how to work the clasps though.The watch takes a few seconds to connect up with the band, but the machines at the gym get the signal instantly (I wasn't expecting that to happen, so it was a nice bonus).The watch is somewhat touchy and if it loses the signal from the band (or if the band isn't able to get your rate because of the position you're in), the workout session stops on it's own. Not terrible, but since you have to push the same button to start and stop the session, it's easy to accidentally start a new one and lose all the data from your current session (if you see the time, it has quit on it's own).At some point, I know the battery will need to be replaced, and I like that I'll be able to do it myself."
321312,2,Excellent Timex,"Just received my watch on the 9th of Jan. and I immediately went to the gym to use it! Works great without gel, sync-ed up with the tread-mill without a problem. great."
321367,2,Journeying Dilbert's world with Scott Adams,"This book is amazing. I would probably say that of most of Dilbert books, but what I truly appreciate about this strip treasury is the careful selection made by the Author and also the handwritten commments below every stip. Thanks to these add-on you can get much more of the behind the scenes on how the humour of the characters is conceived and on how to draw and compose comics. For me this is an interesting added value while maybe someone just prefer to enjoy the comic stand-alone. I would reccomend buying it mainly if you are already a Dilbert fan although it can be a very insightful introduction to newcomers of Dilbert's world"
321485,2,Shakespeare Is To Be Enjoyed and This Edition Lets You Do It,"As has been stated, this format, original text on the left page, modern text on the right, is extremely helpful, the best of both worlds. The beauty and lyricism of the original text and the quick, easy to read and understand modern text on the right...read this editon, saw the play the next night and appreciated it more than ever before. Scholars may not like this format, but to the public and to the casual, but interested reader, this format can't be beaten."
321500,2,One of the best product I ever bought,"I could not say any thing, except this is the best product on the market. Customer service is one of the best I came across. I have owned it for almost five years."
321592,2,Relaxing jazzy tunes,"Each time I listen to Grand Union's CD, I find myself liking it more and more. Very relaxing blend of jazz and folk. I have given this CD as a gift recently and my friend loved it as well. Buy it and enjoy!"
321619,2,I'D LIKE TO START A LEGACY WITH HIM!,The cover is one of the hottest covers I've seen in quite awhile (especially if you see it fully open). The story was pretty good but the love scenes left a little to be desired. Dillon Blackhawk should have been a biker with his attitude and looks.
321641,2,It changed my life.,Wish I had read it decades ago. Will definitely improve the quality of decades to come.
321683,2,SEARCHING FOR A WAKE UP CALL,"SEARCHING FOR PARADISE WAS A BOOK MOST YOUNG WOMEN CAN RELATE TO ,WITH THE DRAMA OF GUYS NOT WANTING TO COMMITT AND THE LIES AND DRAMA THEY PRODUCE.IT IS JUST A SHAME THAT DREW WAS VERY DUMB AND NAIVE TO THE LIES HER BOYFRIEND RAN ON HER,AND IT IS A SHAME SOME WOMEN ARE REALLY LIKE THAT .THIS BOOK IS REALLY GOOD FOR ALL THE NAIVE WOMEN OUT THERE THAT FEEL THEIR BOYFRIEND DOES ANY WRONG . MOST DEFINITELY A WAKE UP CALL."
321698,2,One spray bottle has lasted me 10 years,"I have been using this since 1998 when I bought it in the big membership store. I buy bulk things like cashews and they come in really nice plastic tub containers which are great for storage afterwards. Desolvit will remove the labels very easily and makes the tub container look new without a label on it. I peel off the thin coated toping of the label which usually comes off easily, and spray on the underneath absorbant paper label still attached that has the stickiness--impossible to remove without Desolvit! Within 30 minutes or so it peels off easily and washes any residue easily off with soap and water. After all these years I finally need more. The big store doesn't have it anymore, so I'm glad to find it on Amazon for an excellent price!"
321720,2,Excellent,I had ordered it for my entire clan and they all love it. The delivery was on time and the fragrance lasted for many hours. I would recommend it.
321732,2,Speaker Grill Cloth a good bargain.,"I used this cloth to re-cover a set of built in speakers on a a large cathode ray TV. The appearance was quite good, although using it on larger speakers might present a ""stretchiness"" issue. The cloth is quite thin but, for the price, more than adequate for small projects."
321801,2,Love it!,"This is my favorite candy bar. It is tough to find, and truthfully, I'm not crazy about the addition of the caramel in 1987. I wish they'd bring back Classic Whatchamacallit."
321849,2,Less expensive at the store!,Great product. Use it all the time. Disappointed in the price here at Amazon. There is no savings to be had buying it bulk here. I can get this cheaper at my local store.
321873,2,Available and the price was right.,The item was as described. It was hard to find one like this locally so felt lucky to find it on line. My only concern is if it will last. It is pretty light weight and I am believe the arms will loosen up over time as the spring in the roller is pretty stout. It exactly replaced an old chrome unit though and works well now.
321951,2,Luv popcorn,"This popcorn maker was given as a gift. It has made some great popcorn since. It pops the corn with hot air and that is a bit healthier. Popcorn is good for you anyway. It is a cute, fun popcorn maker when you have friends over."
321966,2,powerful and complex,I loved th?s book. Spencer wr?tes beaut?ful clean sentences w?th just the r?ght amount of ?magery. These people seemed pa?nfully and outrageously al?ve and the f?xes they get themselves ?nto are funny and heartbreak?ng all at once. Th?s ?s the k?nd of book you buy an extra copy of to g?ve to a smart cool fr?end. Bravo
321969,2,Amazing,"Just listen to the slow movement of the Waldstein. I've never heard anything quite like it. Brilliant, powerful, dark, brooding, eye/ear opening.Wow!"
322148,2,Conjuring,"A controversial, precise, intriguing, original book that intrigued me and suggested a new version for the events that shaped our recent history."
322275,2,Great for biology classes!,"This video is great for both evolutionary descriptions and for the importance of sex in creating diversity in populations. It is quick moving , very interesting and has lots of good science - animal behavior, evolution and reproduction. I highly recommend it along with others I have seen in this series for use in high school and basic college science classes and for personal viewing."
322291,2,Great movie at a fair price.,This is not a typical Hollywood release. It has feeling and thought and it's well acted. I would recommend this movie to anyone who doesn't need glitz and special effects in everything they watch.
322340,2,"Box Car Racer a better album than,Blink 182","When,Tom and Travis Split up from blink 182,I never knew that they would come together to produce,such an exellent album.This is an album that blink 182 could never think of,the lyics are much better,they explain an average teenage life is.Songs Like I feel so and there is,are very good songs, and they both show how tom Delonge can be at his best without swearing in every line, he really expresses himself and i think that he would much better in Blink 182 if he used this side of him.Travis all so is very good in this album even though he was good in Blink 182.to round of this review is to say that even though this album has some swearing it,The songs are billiant,Tom and Travis are at their best and to buy this album if u was or are a blink 182 fan, because this would be a great sellection to any punk rock lovers."
322365,2,Fine trimmer for a battery operated machine,"Worx GT 10-Inch 18-Volt Cordless Line Trimmer/Edger #WG150.1While this trimmer is not as powerful as a gas model, At least I can get it started. The battery takes about two hours to charge so a second battery is handy to have. I have had no problems with the string feed. Allparts were with the trimmer when I received it. The people who have hadproblems seem to be unlucky. I'm very satisfied so far. Its light weight makes it useful for my wife to use."
322407,2,There's an evolution goin' on here...,"This album really is a change of pace for the band, and not just because of the departure of Cousin Crispy. They are now a power trio making great rock and roll, and they have grown some in the process. The band still has the swanky trailer park funhouse appeal it always did, but their songwriting and performing definitely show a maturity that should come this far into a band's existence. I have to say that Mary nearly steals the show on the songs that feature her, especially their cover of ""Fire of Love."" This is already my ""Song of the Year,"" and I doubt that the next eleven months will find another to knock it from the top of the heap. ""The Wet Spot"" is a killer surf tune, period. God Bless ya, Rick. And how Dave keeps from having a heart attack during ""Doublewide"" is beyond me. This is the best album from the best live band in America."
322474,2,Beautiful glow from this cute ladybug,"The beautiful glow from this cute ladybug nightlight really attracted my 2-year old granddaughter. Her 4-year old cousin has the turtle, and she loved the colored lights displayed on the ceiling. Her favorite part of the constellations is the moon. I'm sure she will enjoy this ladybug nightlight for years to come as she learns about the night sky. Well made, too."
322687,2,Fluffy White Rice In 60 Seconds,"My family tends to eat in ""shifts"", and we eat a lot of rice. If I cook a pot of rice, it takes 30 minutes, and is cold and sticky by the time my family gets to it. Now, my boys can have their rice when they want it. Viva La Rice works great for lunch, too. We really like this product!"
322704,2,Excellent workout radio,"I was looking for a small radio with good AM and FM reception for use during exercise at the gym. This unit does the trick. I can't imagine it being any smaller and still have decent AM reception. I've also found the mono lock feature to be good to prevent signal wandering as I move around the indoor gymnasium. The only negative I found was the fit of the included earphones. However, I had another set from another unit that plugged in and work great with it. Also, it would be nice if it came with a belt clip, but I've worked around that.My old unit was a Sony Walkman, about 25 years old. It still works OK, but is comparatively difficult to tune and hold tuning. The digital tuning of the DT-120 is far superior and overall a big step forward. I'm very pleased with it.Exercise routines are so much easier and the time passes much faster when you have music or good talk radio to occupy your mind."
322855,2,One of the most overlooked flicks of my lifetime,"Gould plays one of his best roles as a bank teller who holds out a wad of cash from a psychotic bank robber. The catch is, the bank robber (Christopher Plummer) finds out how much was really lost at the bank, and it doesn't jibe with his loot. It makes for a suspenseful, terrifying story that keeps you on your toes. Just when you think you got the ending figures out...."
322876,2,BOOOOOOOOM! a good game,"This is a pretty good game. But when i first played this game i thought it was kind of boring, but as i plyed it more and more i began to like it.It is a cool game but i would like it if they had made the explosions a little...better.since i've already beat the game I can't wait to by Ace Combat 3."
322940,2,Garage door back up and running,Product was exactly what I needed and the instructions were quite easy to read and follow. My garage door is up and running again. Thank you very much.Sherman Hood
322962,2,Heartfelt and Powerful,Marion gives a powerful firsthand account of what is was like to live through the Holocaust. Definitely a must read.
322975,2,Lovely,"I purchased these earrings for my sister. They were so pretty, I hated to give them away. Perfect size and just as pictured."
323054,2,"If you liked the movie, you'll like the soundtrack too","If you've seen the movie, then you pretty much know exactly what you're getting when you buy the soundtrack. That being said, I love the songs from the movie, the other ones are OK if you're into folk music."
323082,2,Holy Mother . . . !!,"Holy Mother of all that there is! Who would have thought that yoga could be so strenuous! If you're looking for a good, no impact workout, look no further. Each segment is just long enough to work your muscles, but short enough to not kill you! The commentary is SO soothing, you almost forget that your muscles are screaming at you to STOP THE INSANITY! If you think that little old 2lb weights aren't effective, just wait . . . you'll feel it later on!!"
323100,2,"Easy to use, provides nice shade.","It installs really easy. you might need to be a little creative on where to place the straps on your individual stroller to make sure it's tight down. But once you figure out the placement, it's a breeze. I can move it up or down to where I need it and still have the kiddos covered. I like that it folds up into itself, but I feel like I need to be good at origami to do so sometimes.While I haven't really had it in too much wind yet, I don't remember it being a problem like other reviewers have mentioned. I know it's been in some wind and I don't remember it being a problem for us. But it is flimsy, so I can see how it could be."
323114,2,great gift for granddaughter,"We gave this as a gift for our granddaughter's 8th birthday - she had a ""ball"" with it! I would love to have the larger one for our camping trips."
323118,2,"Fun to use, great to eat",My daughter had received the smaller size of the Play and Freeze Ice Cream Maker for her birthday and had a blast with it. I ordered several of the larger size for family Christmas gifts. It's fun to make the ice cream and then eat it.
323120,2,"Lots of fun, but some work too",This ball was a lot of fun but it was very heavy and required quite a bit of muscle to roll it around. We sat in a circle in chairs and rolled it with our feet. You can not throw it or toss it. It is just too heavy. The ice cream was great though. We made plain vanilla. Very rich and very sweet if you follow the included recipe.
323211,2,One of the great compilations,Got this sought-after compilation CD at a reasonable price to add to my 70s collection.
323276,2,Balanced Attack From Latino Smoozer!,"Luis is at his best with ballads or ""romances"" and this compilation has some very touching tunes: Abrzame,"" the title track, Nada es igual"" and ""Un d""a ms"" really sticks out. ""Latino Superstar Numero Uno"" shows his rapping skills in ""Dame,"" and ""Todo por su amor"" is also a good uptempo tune. Overall this is a good CD and one a person who is just getting into Latin music should buy, matter of fact beginners would be wise to buy Luis' CD's before experimenting!"
323278,2,The picture is misleading..,"I received the Fluke 63 IR thermometer and it is not per the picture on Amazon. The picture shows a device with buttons below the display but what I received had no buttons, just a plain grey surface, although the box and the device had ""63"" on them. The manual says the buttons only come with the 66 and 68 models. Misleading picture, not good......"
323477,2,GREAT!,I bought this dirt cheap at like 26 bucks. Would definetly recommend if you can get near that price again.
323523,2,Battery lasted a month,The batteries that came with the mouse lasted a month to me. About 4-5 hr of use every weekday. I always remember to turn off the mouse when i not use it. So i guess i have used optimized the use of the battery.I suggest you buy two higher capacity batteries for it.The mouse overall is GREAT! Really convenient for light weight laptops.
323524,2,Heavy Duty with nice grips,This cookie sheet was actually a gift for my mother. Not the most glamorous of gifts but she asked for a new cookie sheet and I tried to give her the nicest one I could find. She really likes the silicone grips that don't totally make potholders unnecessary but do reduce the chances of burning one's fingers. This sheet is made of a thicker sheet of aluminum than your typical cookie sheet. The sheet also came with a small cooling rack so it might be nice for someone just starting a home as well.
323525,2,Submersible Cruiser,"Battery must be removed and recharged after 30 minutes of use, which can be cumbersome. Weight limit is 100 lbs. The kids love it though and it IS fun, therefore worth it. I thought it was too pricey, so I waited until it was on sale."
323542,2,Willis Harman's finest book,"Willis Harman's ""An Incomplete Guide to the Future"" started me on future studies, and his writings have helped focus my studies since. ""Global Mind Change"" is a powerful statement, digging deep into our language and assumptions as he explores the history and current thought in humanity's attempts to define reality through science. A must read for the new century, and an excellent text for interdisciplinary social and scientific studies."
323545,2,I liked the kid...when's the movie coming out?,"I liked Billy, the title character of this story and rooted for him all the way through. I liked the detective (Petra) who tries to find the young boy who witnesses a brutal murder. I did not much care for the rest of the characters and the predictable story line. The red herrings didn't throw me, either.The victim was not very sympathetic and the villan was pretty obvious from the beginning, but I didn't stop reading because I liked following Billy through the mean streets of Los Angeles.I'm sure Hollywood will make this story into a movie...who will play Billy? Petra? The old Jewish man? The grandmother?To me, it would have been a much better ending if Billy had wound up with the Jewish man...they needed each other and truly understood one another.I liked this book and would recommend it with some, but not much, hesitation. I will go see the movie, too."
323596,2,One of the best 'What-If's' in recent years,"I'm listening to the audio production of ""Y2K"" and despite the highly unusual speaking voice of the reader, he manages to convey the right mixture of menace, mayhem, and Orson Wellesian ""Martian Landing"" hysteria attached to the Y2K problem. People who have attacked this book as unduly alarmist are not really answering the question raised by the author. If even 10% of the catastrophes take place, we are in for a weird New Year's Day in 2000. No one can say with any definite accuracy that the lights will not go out, the phones will fail, and embedded chips will render most of our machines useless. And the critic who accused Kelley of racism in his description of the L.A. riots --- sorry if the truth hurts, folks. I was in L.A. during the riots of '92; Kelley has nailed the tensions accurately. When will anyone in authority tell us that we do not have to worry at all about Y2K? God help those who still have their heads buried in the sand on Dec. 31, 1999."
323621,2,Nothing short of the best,"I loved Ms.Berry's last work ""Redemption Song"", and now I am reading this latest work. Not even through yet, but I have to say that this time I am definitely backing up my five stars. This is nothing less than the best. We tend to despise hip hop and rap and say it is no good. But, like it or not, it is a part of us. Let's just say that the right message is not coming out of it, and that is what this book is trying to convey. Let me also say that Ms. Berry's works will reach back in time with our history. I like that. Perhaps, the message within this book can be read and conveyed. I also recommend Redemption Song as well. Both of these books should be read as many African Americans as possible."
323668,2,Enjoyable Space Adventure,"Let me start this off by explaining that I have never played the game this movie is based on,but I enjoy animated films and space adventures,so I wanted to see this.The animated feature starts off with a spaceship coming upon another ship from their fleet called the USG O'Bannon that only has a lot of dead bodies in it and four survivors,the movie Alien was written by Dan O'Bannon,so I thought I knew where this was headed.There's a lot of action in this film with a lot of violence and tons of swearing like you would expect in an R rated movie.Over all I enjoyed this 75 minute adventure but I felt like I would have had more fun with it if I'd known the game it was based on.The animation was good with an exciting soundtrack with great voice actors and there never was a dull moment.It's made me want to play the game now,"
323733,2,Love this design!,"I liked the way this looked online and after receiving it as a gift and actually wearing it, I love it. The hanging feather detail balances the design perfectly and the pendant is a great size - eye catching but not unwieldy or tacky. It's on an adjustable length cord which I appreciate for when it interferes or gets lost with a neckline, though I personally keep it snugged all the way up to choker length. The only negative is that it's cast front side only, so if it flips over it's very definitely the back of the piece, not identical to the front. In person, more of a pewter color, not super silver like the photo."
323820,2,"Excellent, hooked until the end.",The best LJS series to come out since the Secret Circle. Jez has the looks and means to kill all who oppose her. She should continue on with the story and finally show a confrontation between the Wild powers and Hunter Redfern.I Just got to say this is one of my favorite books to just read over and over again.
323901,2,Way too good,"Excellent product. So glad it's carried as the local ""drug store"" doesn't carry it any more. Have to ration it or I'd gain loads of weight. Actually it's not too high in calories and the flavor is just yummy. Highly recommend this for nougat lovers but be careful of any new fillings in your teeth!"
323998,2,Clever Satire of Another Musical Trend,"Back when the Gregorian Chants had their 15 minutes, Rhino offered this clever parody of the genre. Combining Spinal Tap sensibilities with a Laugh-In approach, The Benzedrine Monks of Santo Damonica makes fun of chanting and the music business in general, from receiving advice about, and then recording, their sophmore effort; to having the obligatory Movie and TV deals attempted. The director finds some great performances from a bizarre cast, James Widdoes (of Animal House fame) in particular is great as a TV director (a part he plays with aplumb in real life). I wish Rhino would do more of this type of parody."
324049,2,Not Too Bad,"I read all of Robin Cook's novels. I really like them. He has a talent for suspense and almost believable procedures, cures etc. I found this novel to be ok. I've enjoyed some of his others better. They were more suspenseful than this one. But this one seems more based in reality and therefore was a little more technical and I think truer to life. And I don't know about you all, but my life is not suspenseful so I forgive this novel for not being such. But it does deal with some real issues.I could relate to the research and the benefits and the risks. All of it I could identify with. To me, the ending was the best. How strange it was to be laughing in a room alone and gasping too. The end for me was worth it.A-"
324157,2,Works Great,Extremely effective in controlling dust. Easy to install. The environment in my shop is much cleaner and virtually dust free.
324160,2,EXCELENTE,"La mejor recopilación en español que he podido conseguir. Sin embargo me queda el sinsabor de que este CD no incluye la canción LISA DE LOS OJOS AZUL, una de las canciones mas bellas de Nicola di Bari."
324171,2,"Think About It,","Anybody who has played SWAT 3 will know what a brilliant and well designed game that was. So surely, we can only be able to expect better in Urban Justice. I HAVE SEEN GAMEPLAY FOOTAGE!!! Yes, I think it is at www.fileplanet.com where you can download a few minutes worth of actual footage from the game, it is not just a trailer or cutscene it is someone actually playing UJ. I expect that when it comes out in January, it will immediately become number 1 on the top sellers list. Go to various sites, read the reviews and think about what you have to look foward too."
324351,2,rules- know them and love them!,"I found this book to be easy to read as far as rule books go. I have read many rule books on basketball (namely the high school, national federation rule book) and this one reads by far the easiest. Instead of reading like an outline, the book follows rules with plays of application, making it easier to picture the rule and its enforcement. I recommend this book for anyone from the official wanting to move up to referee the college game, or the fan who wants to increase his or her knowledge of the college game."
324411,2,so right yet so wrong,"I loved this book because it hits you in a very uncomfortable way. It bring out all these awful feeling while reading it. You can't stop but feel you should. What happened to this poor girl and the feeling you feel for her friend leaves a tight feeling in your chest. As much as I loved this book I don't think I could recommend it to my friends, only because it felt like I was watching the story unfold as if I were there, and as I said it felt so wrong yet needed to finish it."
324414,2,Piper Perabo delivers!,"This is the first episode of the series, thus it's the episode that introduces all of the characters to the viewer. It's a big change of roles for Piper Perabo compared to some of her earlier work (this is definitely not Coyote Ugly). To anyone who enjoys espionage movies or TV shows, you'll definitely enjoy Covert Affairs."
324597,2,"Very, VERY cool!","I'm 42...my son's 15...turned me on to Alanis 3 years ago with JLP. There isn't ONE PIECE on either of these cd's that I don't absolutely love! Some people say ""it's the same old crap"". Well, the thing is, if you like Alanis, you like her...if you don't, you don't! It's as simple as that! There's only one thing I'd like to do for her...take her CLOTHES SHOPPING! God, where does that girl shop??? On my list, she's only number 2 to my main number 1...ELTON JOHN!!! I know; big difference, but variety IS the spice of life!"
324655,2,A Taste of Yesterday,"I read this book as a teenager, long ago, and it helped cement my attitudes toward distance cycling and cycling in general.As a middle aged man, it's a complete joy and vindication of those attitudes!You don't need a high dollar superbike, when a simple three speed will moe than suffice! I'm relearning this now with my vintage five speed townbike. . . .Anyway, this is a great book for all bicyclists and those who've always wondered about distance cycling."
324665,2,Nice look and quick install.,"I've had this tonneau cover for about two weeks now. It was shipped fully assembled and ready to install. Just took it out of the box, placed on the bed rails, and flipped down the clamps. Quick and simple, it only took but 3 minutes. It's been through a few thunderstorms and no water got past it. Not to mention, it's added nearly 2 mpg to my gas mileage. It's a bit pricey, but then it might pay for itself over the course year in fuel savings."
324668,2,Faith Tested to the Utmost Survives,"Darlene's story could be included in the New Testament book of Hebrews, where the heroes of faith and their deeds are listed. It impacted me as much as reading ""The Hiding Place"" and ""God's Smuggler"". What kept her sane in captivity and isolation was the Scripture and hymns which articulated her faith. God showed her that He was there."
324716,2,Just what I wanted,"These capsules were just what I needed for my son who is allergic to artificial colors, flavors, and preservatives. Now he can take his medicine in pill form."
324724,2,Great,Great book for young kids to learn about Korean culture during World War Two. Age appropriateness 8-10 yrs. My son really enjoyed.
324742,2,Best of a not well known band,"These two albums are the best of angel. If you like high energy Rush/Kiss 70,s hard rock you will like this. Forget what they look like, it was just a gimmick that didn't work too well."
324796,2,as described,"if your an avid camper, hiker, fishing...etc, sometimes you know all of a sudden you go to 5 different stores and cant find your needed mantle. i like pre-ordering and having them on hand so as not to have to do the scramble the night before a trip."
324798,2,'Bout time,"After watching my country get torn apart by the bastards running the oil companies, looking at the pathetic president and his disgusting lack of foreign policy, and beginning to realize that we're all probably gonna get nuked by ""Dubya's"" retaliation to an attack we had nothing to even do with, I doubt you can truly measure the unbridled hatred I feel towards the ""yeeha state"". This book - I didn't purchase it from here, but I have it nonetheless - just allows me to sink into the rage that I have to supress in front of my (70% Texan) schoolmates everyday."
324843,2,Addicting and Fun.,"My Grandmother bought my daughter this dvd on her 3rd birthday and I can't get her to turn it off. SHE LOVES IT and would probably watch 24/7 if I would let her. My one year old boy likes to watch and dance along with it, too. It has a cute story line and fun songs. A must have for any child who loves to sing and dance."
324850,2,Fun Toy,"My twin girls recieved this toy last Christmas when they were 3 months old and they still play with it today. My only complaint was when they would use it to pull up on, it would often tip over and land on top of them sometimes trapping them, but other than that it has been a great toy. Just be close by when they are little and pulling up."
324851,2,EXCELLENT!!!,"A JEWEL WITH CAPITAL LETTERS. THE BEST AND FINEST SPANISH FOLKLORE INTERPRETER TODAY.GREAT VOICE,GREAT SONGS AND SCENARIO. THE PALAU IS BREATHTAKING.ISABEL PANTOJA IS A LOVELY LADY AND A GREAT DIVA."
324870,2,Precious illustrations,My children enjoyed this book when they were children and now my grandchildren enjoy it. Gyo Fujikowa's illustrations appeal to children and adults. I like to give this as a baby shower gift or new baby gift.
324925,2,A Sensitivity for the Musical Haiku,"First recorded in 1988, Roundabout for contrabass and computer-generated tape is joined with a series of experimental and theatrical works, notably adaptations of ten brief haiku of the Japanese poet Buson. Carl's compositions develop around a sensitivity of plastic time and open space, but being a student of Xenakis, Rochberg, Crumb, and Wernick, his musical palette is modern, agitated, and somewhat noisy. Other than the quiet phrases of the haiku, these more extensive work reflects what Carl recognizes as the fragmented, whirling energy and virtualness of contemporary life. Don't expect some nice romantic melody to linger. Dabs, silences, and layering of half-tunes and some discords provoke, as some partially remembered dream. There are some flowing ambient aspects of Ives and Cage too. This is interesting music, but I personally would not want to hear it often."
324964,2,Hercules guitar hanger GSP38WB A/G,"Excellent quality. Delivery time fast as expected.Very practical storage (also for Fender strat neck) and easy wall removal (also @ angle)of the guitar.Arjen, The Netherlands"
325006,2,Impressive,"This is an impressive book - from the hand of a fine author,historian and leader most central to this great war.I use it more as a coffee table book than one to read coverto cover. There is more here than I can absorb in the couple ofdays that I would normally spend reading a book.It has many pictures - black and white photos and maps,almost one at every page one opens to.Churchill understood the scope and sweep of human history,as it manifested itself in this ""Unnecessary War"", like noother, and from a vantage point of none other."
325024,2,Wonderful for the little dinosaur lover!,Checked book out from library for a few months. then bought a copy and still read book every night to 3 yr old. He now tells story to us! wonderful adventure of a young girl and her imagination when she goes to see bones at the natl hist museum!
325038,2,Great !!!,Being in the ARMY I need a compact towel that can dry me out of the shower but more importantly dry fast in the tuck during the afternoon and not stink of mildew. This product does just that. Worth the money.
325039,2,thankful for available replacement,"I'm hacked at Home Depot that they would sell a one-of-a-kind product (Black & Decker Firestorm 15.6v product) created specifically for Home Depot and then discontinue support. Now, replacement batteries are diffcult to find - thankfully, not impossible.This battery works perfectly - hopefully, it will last a long, long time."
325040,2,Well thought out,"Had a 2 1/2 and a 3 year old playing with this kitchen at the same time, both were having a blast. Batteries weren't installed for several days, they didn't care a bit but enjoyed the extra stuff after they were installed."
325051,2,Excellent!,"Laurin Wittig has quickly become one of my favorite authors. This is the second of her books I have read (Charming the Shrew being the first) and I'll be looking forward to reading more about the Highlands in the future. Her writing style is descriptive enough to enhance the story, but not so much that it becomes an exercise in Scottish history. Her stories put one right there in the Highlands- I can almost smell the heather! Her characters are very likeable. Her heroes are strong without being arrogant, and her heroines can certainly hold their own against them. I love her books!"
325169,2,Her favorite toy; uses it every day,"My daughter received this as a Christmas present when she was 9 months old, and it was her favorite thing she received. She started using it immediately. She needed help on thresholds at first because it was difficult for her to go up an inch or two, but she soon got the hang of it, and is now cruising all over the house. She literally uses this toy every day, and she feels confident pushing it. Now she is venturing to take steps on her own (at 11 months). I definitely would use this again if we have a baby #2.Update: she is now 20 months old, and will still play with the music/buttons part of the toy once in a while. When I look back on her first year, this is the toy she used the most, hands down! I would definitely purchase this for any child in the 6 to 10 month age range!!!"
325234,2,"Funk, R&B, Jazz & Soul ---WOW!!!!! - He's sexy too!","Saxophonist Alfonzo Blackwell's double disc CD blends elements of Funk, R&B, Jazz & Soul into a dynamic new style for ""Sax You Down"" A must have for Smooth Jazz and R&B listners. Welcome to the innovative world of real music!!!!!!! BUY THIS CD AND DANCE AND CRY ALL NIGHT LONG."
325414,2,Best of the series so far.,"This is a good read, for the most part. There are still a few rough spots -- I'm getting awfully tired of the painfully slow development of the subplots regarding Nikolas & Ulelo, for instance -- but the main story here, the one involving Picard & his first encounter with Guinan, was actually quite good. Plenty of action, good characterization, good pacing. And we had only a tiny 5 page partial chapter dealing with Admiral McAteer, which was also a pleasant change."
325570,2,slingo quest,I have a great time playing this game. It has a lot of different stages to go through and is very entertaining.
325599,2,Brilliant Album,"The Very Best of Elvis Costello was the first album of Elvis Costello that I bought. This album has all of the best songs from Elvis Costello brilliant music career. All in all, I highly recommend this album to anyone who wants to start listening to Elvis Costello music."
325609,2,"Excellent drilling, but a little dated.","This book is an excellent introduction to the Italian language. Its pronunciation guide is the most thorough I have seen, and pronunciations next to words indicate which syllable to stress, which is not done in the other popular italian books I have used. This is crucial to pronouncing the language correctly. The book is well layed out, pedagogically, if a tad ambitious. It keeps a fairly rapid pace in introducing new grammar rules, and can be overwhelming as a first text. Heavy use of drills really does get the language to ""sink"" in, however. The reason this book gets four stars, is that the italian it teaches is a bit outdated. Some of the vocabulary it teaches is straight out of 1960, and the pronouns it teaches for ""he"" and ""she"", among other words, are not in common current usage in Italy. My friend from Italy explained to me that those works anly used by her grandparents' generation."
325617,2,Don't Have Much To Say,"I SHOULD keep this review short and sweet.I like this album. I don't like it as much as ""Breaking The Cycle."" Although both albums rock just as hard and are about the same in someone like me enjoying them. Staind is different from Marilyn Manson. I don't really like to compare the two because Marilyn Manson has nothing to do with Staind. If some people thought this music is depressive, I disagree. I don't know why, but I do. While this sounds similar to ""Breaking The Cycle,"" I actually like them both accurately about the same, and not just because this also has a DVD with it. I do kinda wish Marilyn Manson did the same and released an album and a DVD in the same case. Like I said before, he is entirely different. I hope this helped some."
325637,2,Cost-effective Optical Audio,"Due do the digital nature of optical audio, it is not necessary to purchase expensive optical audio cables. While certainly not of the greatest quality, this cable does exactly what it is supposed to do. It comes with the proper caps and will work as long as your devices are within 6 feet of each other."
325640,2,"Makes sound, that's what matters","For under a couple dollars, you cannot go wrong. I've only had the cable for a couple days but I cannot tell a difference between it and the $35 cable I just returned to ""the shack."" It's not the tightest fitting but stays and produces sound and that's all I care about. Is the sound the best it can be? I dont know. It works and for a couple dollars, you shouldn't even be questioning it."
325673,2,"""Publish It Now!"" is a bible of information!","This book was so easy to read, especially for someone like me who never even thought publishing a book was possible. I'm now in the process of getting my first book ready to print and I can't believe the information this book provided! It was really interesting to see other writers and artists featured on the chapter pages also... something I hadn't ever seen before. A friend, Christopher Taylor, told me about this book and said he's now publishing his second book with the help of Costa Publishing. I like that ""Publish It Now!"" gives marketing ideas, contacts and places to list your book that specialize in SELLING books, like with Amazon.com!"
325756,2,good product,the USB connection is the way to go for microphone. my son talked me into getting this kind. it seems work good so far. I had a couple of those old jack connections and eventually they died.
325774,2,Vampire Punk Rockers From Hell,Track Number 8: Vampire Punck Rockers From Hell is simply awesome! It alone makes this CD worthwhile.
325775,2,Pretty good,"I teach aerobics, and it is hard to find good motivating music, which is not too annoying. This one is pretty good. So I would suggest this for others."
325798,2,Vita Mix,"Really neat. Got it for my sister in law. She loves it. We will ""steal"" some of the recipes from her."
325950,2,Works for me,This drink does what I need it to do and does it fast.Taste is good and the boost I get is good.Highly recommended.
326014,2,This is way too easy!,"I bought the Linksys BEFW11S4 Wireless 4-Port Cable/DSL Router online from amazon.com. ... It comes with an instruction leaflet (folds out like a map) and a startup CD. To illustrate how easy it is to install, I never used the CD at ALL. It took me about 15 minutes to install (using the leaflet as a guide) on my primary computer, which already has a NIC Card for my cable modem. Easy Web Interface to configure, saved setting, and done. It took me another 15 minutes to setup my second computer (laptop) with a wireless card. All I had to do is enter my network name from the Primary computer setup and BAM...I was cruising all over the house, back porch, yard. Signal strength stayed at ""excellent"" where ever I went. This is a winner...now I don't have to wrestle with the kids to get online! 2000 square foot Raised Ranch, Primary Computer with Router sits on bottom level of the house, Router sits at desktop level..works like a charm."
326016,2,Mommy X-Files,"When it comes to motherhood, the truth might be out there, but very few people seem willing to tell it. And so thank the galaxies for Marg Stark, an intrepid Scully for exhausted, alienated moms everywhere. In WHAT NO ONE TELLS THE MOM, Stark smartly separates the supermoms from the supermyths, debunks Bunco and other Stepford-Wife suburbanisms, and refuses to airbrush the tough realities of mommydom, which, like stretch marks and those extra 10 baby pounds, don't just vanish in the brilliant glow of paternal joy. Marg Stark -- by telling the truth in the way only a best friend might, and by letting other moms tell their own truths -- offers all threadbare moms the one thing we need most: hope. We're not crazy. And we're not alone."
326018,2,Interesting for anyone in Angolan/African history,"This book was not like many other of the Royal Diaries because Nzingha was not a well known royal nor was she European. This is one of the lesser known of the series but it worth a look for it's good historical references.Nzingha's story is worth hearing, she was a powerful leader to her people and a formidable enemy against the Portugese. As with many of the other Royal Diaries, they portray the situations realistically such as the slavery the portugese enforced to the captives of Nzingha's people.This is recommended for anyone interested in angolan and africain history. It paints a realistic picture of the times when the Europeans were ruthless for power through slavery. It demonstrates to younger readers an inspirational and courageous person such as Nzingha. I am glad I read this book, it was informational and I enjoyed learning about the history."
326023,2,One of the Best,"This is my favorite of the Three Kingdoms games. It isn't as complex as the later editions but is definitely an upgrade over the original two. The ability to create your own generals and ruler adds welcome difficulty to the game as well as adding that personal touch if you like to see your own name flash across the screen. Overall, the game is fun to play, complex enough to keep your interest yet not overload you with options and things you have to remember to build up your cities/troops etc. If you are into these types of games, RTK III is definitely one to check out."
326099,2,Wee Sing King Cole's Party,"This is my son's favorite video. It may be annoying to most adults, but in a child's eye, it seems to be quite magical. It's entertaining and to hear your child sing the songs is priceless!!!"
326113,2,decent,awsome game..but not awesome that as soon as u get six other monster hunters are already going to be out
326119,2,Excellent power,"The bissell 3990 is an excellent value. Great power and does not leavea thing behind! Our best upright to date... The bagless compartment is rather small, and will fill up quick. If your looking for an uprightvacuum to pick up a lot; this is it !!"
326129,2,perfect,"great price, taste good. this worked well for me, just what i was looking for and it came b4 time giving"
326153,2,This is paradise!,"I was first introduced to IZ from 50 First Dates. The song ""Over the Rainbow"" was hauntingly beautiful. I just had to hear what else he sang. And, boy, I was truly impressed! IZ has such a beautiful, mellow voice that I can listen to him time and time again. And, I do!"
326221,2,SO CONVENIENT,"I bought one of these a while back and found I used it so often that I needed another, then another. How many recipes call for a 1/4 cup of oil? 4 TBSP = 1/4 cup. I love the convenience of using this measure instead of a traditional measuring cup because it isn't full to the brim at capacity like a standard measuring cup, and the pour spout is more accurate. I also like that I can put it in the dishwasher without fear of mutilating it with the high heat drying element. It's handy for both liquid and dry measurements (sugar, salt, etc). I have three of them and I use them all often and together. I just bought two more for Christmas stocking stuffers for my adult children, who both like to cook. They are the perfect size for everyday cooks with small or average sized families. And they're cute. Great design."
326241,2,touching,I thought the movie unfolded beautifully in a not such a beautiful reality it depicts. I especially liked Demi Moor and think she did a pretty good job playing Lola's Mom. The parallel drawn between 4 generations of women is apparent and fun to watch.
326327,2,Works well,"The auto leveling system on my '85 Riviera quit working. Finding replacement parts was very hard and expensive if I could find something even with no guarantees. Replacing the OE springs with these springs allows me to retain the ride. The air shocks are not now part of the level control system. By eliminating the leveling compressor, I'm able to run 15 lbs. of pressure in the air shocks and use them as shocks only. My next step will be to replace the OE air shocks with the KYB shocks that aren't air shocks. This along with the Energy Suspension bushings for the sway bar has greatly enhanced the ride and handling of my car.The ad doesn't state it, but the price is for a pair of springs, not just a single spring.ER"
326376,2,OK if you want some simple German lesons for a vacation,"I purchased this book to help me in my German class in college. It was not that useful in helping me understand German grammar and sentence structure at a college level. I gave it 4 stars, not because it helped me in my German class, but because I think it is a good down-and-dirty book for learning the language and customs if you will only be spending a short time in Germany. This book might also by good as a refresher for people who have already taken a German class but forgot most of what they learned."
326392,2,the best carrier around,"excellent product, safe, very convenient and was used for hours with my two daughters from 3 month - 1.5 years. hours of fun and walking."
326671,2,Pretty good,"I am not chinese, and don't have much knowledge of Chinese culture outside of what I've learned from Chinese friends-- from a very basic viewpoint, the book drew me in, was a good read, and had some very emotional moments that resonated. Glad I checked it out. The last chapter was a bit disappointing and the main character was a bit contradictory at times."
326684,2,Worth a Read,"Beautifully written novel about life in China. Reminded me of Pearl S. Buck's ""The Good Earth"" and provides incredible insight into a culture so different and harsh. Wonderful story about deep friendship, love and survival."
326709,2,AMAZING,"The chemistry between the 2 leads is one of the best I have ever seen on screen. I honestly can't believe these two are not together in real life, maybe in another life then.It has just the right amount of awkward moments to mimic real life without seeming cheesy. Great acting from the whole cast!Funny, romantic, and incredibly sexy, this is a must watch/own!!!"
326750,2,Just What I Wanted,I was looking for reasonably priced quality sunglasses that wrapped around enough to have the lens protect my peripheral vision. I got just what I wanted.
326759,2,Good Clock,"If you are looking for a clock, go with this one! The time is so big and i love the aroma therapy. I recommend this clock to everyone who has stress! and who needs new clock. I strongly urge you to buy this, you won't regret it."
326809,2,Great item,"Sent as a gift to my son, he loved it and shared with others. Size of the item is convenient."
326831,2,Great service,Great sound as usual from Def Leppard. Makes me feellike I'm back in high school. Just need a girl for the back seat. Thanks for the great service and fast delivery Amazon.
326897,2,A good review for this unfairly berated technical marvel,"I guess I have been a little more fortunate with my watch. I bought mine when they first came out as it was the most technically advanced time piece out there. Still is, I think. This was 7 years ago. Never had a problem with it and the battery is only the second installed. I have just recently had an issue, but that's because I had welded the (-) button shut. I'm a metal sculptor and I never take the watch off my wrist. I disassembled it myself, including removing the button and replacing it. I fixed the button but now I have lost the Alt, and the temp is fixed at 190 degrees. I believe they are sensitive to the movement inside being fiddled with or jostled. There are some really tiny connectors to the touch crystal.I have swam with it, welded with it, beat the living crap out of it, and it lasted this long without a problem. Hopefully they will ruggedize the internals a little more. There just isn't a more advanced watch out there."
326954,2,Great Book.,"Great Book, a lot of great info in this one. I don't like to waste anything esp food. This will show you how to turn your waste into gold. 5 stars."
327005,2,Outstanding resource,"This year I got accepted to two well-known programs, and this book helped me a lot. every aspect of the admissions process is covered: essays, interviews (this was especially helpful), work experience, ratings,etc. Most importantly, this book gives you a very good idea of what your application should look like. This, of course, is only half the battle. You still have to accumulate some work experience, do your best on the GMAT, and so on. Nevertheless, this book will certainly help. Buy it as soon as you start thinking about applying, not 2 weeks before the application deadline. I would also ignore some of these one-star revews here. They really exaggerate the book's shortcomings and downplay its numerous strengths. Also, just a word of caution. The competition is so intense, it is absurd. The smartest people get rejected from top MBA programs, so unless you are Enstein, apply to at least 4-5 programs, if possible."
327016,2,exactly what we wanted,"what we were looking for was a sound machine that didnt turn off during the night. Babies wake up often and when our other homedics clock stopped playing in 60 min she wouldnt get herself back to sleep (she can hear us downstairs)Now that shes older, she plays to her music also. I rated a 4 not a 5 just because in the background of the white noise i hear a very faint something that sounds like a person's voice and I cant sleep to it but didnt get it for myself. We do want one for our room that doesnt time out, but may look for a different one just because of that."
327076,2,Works exactly as advertised,"The iSkin works exactly as advertised. The screen is fully protected and the clear plastic does not sit on the iPod. The clickwheel is also fully covered with thin neoprene. I didn't have any problems manipulating the clickwheel even while driving. I like the flap over the dock connector, but it's a little bit of a hassle to peel it back every time I want to plug in the connector for my car stereo.First iPod protector after reading the extensive reviews and I'm really pleased."
327082,2,It works,"I really enjoy the flexability this ir extender provides. As long as you aim the remote control correctly, it works great. If you are a channel changer of great frequency, then be patient; you have to aim the remote carefully."
327090,2,The real launchpad for Mccarthy's subsequent work,"This, much more so than the Orchard Keeper, feels like McCarthy's first full work. The narrative focus is much tighter, even if the paths that Culla and Rinthy take are every bit as shiftless and as doomed. But by the end of the book, Mccarthy has stepped well beyond the typical southern Gothic territory he spends most of his first novel treading through. Outer Dark, with it's central incestuous conflict, could easily have been just another novel about screwed-up Appalachian degenerates. Instead it launches itself into a space of morbid ceremonies, nightmarish pseudo-myths, and inexplicable, cyclical violence. It's not southern Gothic or even american Gothic as much as it is Gothic period. It's easy to see the jumping off points for the themes he would explore in Blood Meridian, The Crossing, et al here."
327148,2,Friday the 13th,"This is the tenth movie in the set. Complete set includes Friday the 13th one thru eight, Jason goes to hell, and Jason X. Also Jason vs.Freddy."
327152,2,Nice book,"My daughter is really into the anime, she just loved this book. It is really helping her with her art."
327167,2,OUTSIDER,One of the best of Diana Palmer's Books . A story that tugs at your heart-strings. Great action and suspense but great emotion also. Highly recommended as it also keeps you up to date with previous characters
327178,2,The Adventure Continues,"In book #4 of the Clique series, Massie, Claire, Alicia, Dylan, and Kristen continue their adventures at Octavian Day School. The Love Struck Valentine's Day Dance is rapidly approaching, and all of the girls have set their eye on that special someone. However, when Alicia's Spanish cousin, Nina, arrives and starts dominating Octavian Day School, things get ugly, and fast. Alliances shift, boys get chased, and the drama is served up fresh in this fabulous new read from Lisi Harrison."
327180,2,Best Sign Language Video for ALL,"I not only have Vol 1-3 but I pre-ordered Vol 4-6 before they were even released. I wanted to get them as soon as possible. Why you ask? Because these are the all time best videos to learn sign language. As an adult, I have reviewed signs that I learned years ago, and my 2)grandchildren age 5 years & 8 months love watching them. Both are hearing children, but we are learning it as a second language. Because of the format my 5 year old catches on really fast and knows many signs just after watching these video for a few months."
327244,2,All Brides of Culdee Creek series,"I loved this series. Gives a look into the life in the mid and late 1800's. Easy read, had a rd time putting them down!"
327258,2,Bare Essentials,No real complaints except that Bare Essentials uses the United States Postal Service which is very unreliable in my neighborhood (believe it or not -- Northern Manhattan) so I didn't get my product. UPS ground is much better and I'll often not order from those who use the post office.
327263,2,Sterling Silver Butterfly Earrings,"I loved the packaging of this item. The box was big enough that no one could tell I was receiving jewelry. They were placed in a small, black bag, completely protected from any damage. I loved them when I finally opened the bag, and couldn't wait to wear them. I was immediately given complements at work about my new earrings."
327290,2,Liz should start considering Enid's friendship...,"I didn't like the way Enid reacted to Ronnie's confrontation. I mean, why did she accuse Liz? If she 'valued' Liz's friensdship and trusted her, then she'd take Liz's word for it. If I was Liz I would have made Enid grovel for my forgiveness. Liz is too soft. She's also too dumb - I mean, it was sooo obvious that Jess wanted to be voted Prom Queen. Jess can be such a witch - it's great! I'd definitely want her as a best friend in High School."
327291,2,A tour de force of writing,Pamela Sargent has written another winner! This is not only a good book but a great book.As in many of her books the language is almostpoetic and the characters so well developed they stay with you for a long time. The background (an atomic war with the sexes separating) provides the perfect foil for this journey of the heart and the mind
327399,2,Love the group,I've been looking for this cd for years and I wasn't able to find it until I decided to give Amazon a try and sure enough they had it plus it made a good gift for a friend of mine and myself. :)
327431,2,"a fun, thought-provoking read","There are several moments that are more than worth the price of the book -- my favorite is the personality type inventory being presented to the Klan, with a close second being the final chapter, in which he just strolls into Bohemian Grove (secret: don Dockers and other preppy garb). Ronson is a genius. He's not strident or judgemental: he just tags along until his subjects reveal their essence. In times like ours, we need writers like him more than ever. Best nonfiction I've read in years."
327453,2,"Cute story, beautiful pictures",Great story with beautiful pictures. The only downside is that I bought it for my 18 month old and the storyline is a bit complicated for her. Otherwise she love looking at the animals.
327468,2,All the basics plus some,"This book covers everything I needed to know, plus recipies for new items. Helpful hints, and instructions, for a variety of preserving methods."
327492,2,"Solid western, solid story","I love it when a re-make comes along and it's actually fun to watch! I have to admit I have never seen the original, so I can't make comparisons, but it was a movie that kept my attention and didn't get wrapped up in special effects or excessive cursing, wow!The premise of the story, a son who doesn't show much respect for his father and the father that eventually does want that respect and will go to any lengths to prove to his son he is not weak, is different from most of the westerns I've seen and I guess that's why the movie gets a 4 star rating from me.The locations the film was shot at were very good, looked excellent on blu-ray. My only complaint is like a lot of movies now, you have to turn the volume way up to hear diologue, but when the action starts you have to turn it down or suffer an ear bleed."
327521,2,this is a great dragon set,My freind has this toy and its very very fun.Im going to get it for myself with my oun money.Im going to get every dragon set that they make if I can.I just can't wait until I get it.
327605,2,Great in-ear headphones,"I wear both ""cans"" and in-ear headphones and these are the best in-ear phones I've found. Take the time to try all the sizes and types (rubber vs foam) of ear buds. You need a good seal in the ear canal to shut out ambient sound. DO NOT wear jogging or driving where you need to hear outside sounds."
327661,2,It's Cooking Time,"If you are looking for a super challenge go else where. I loved this game for the fact that it was just simple cooking fun. You get to chop, slice, dice, mix and many other cooking functions. Doesn't teach you how to actually cook; this is just a ddr version of cooking basically. Once you get the hang of doing each function it makes game play a lot smoother. Also, it was neat that they give you the option mid-cooking a recipe whether you want to subsitute or add other items to make a whole other dish. The practice option came in handy for some of the less simple functions. Some of the tasks you do are timed while others you finish when you finish."
327920,2,Xbox Live Gold,"This is a great price and I wish they would of had the 12 + 1. It's the only thing better. I really liked the down load from the site. Great idea, keep up the good work."
328115,2,Good book for Practical Advice on Time Mgmt,I enjoyed reading this book. The author has some good practical advice about allocating time for a big project. I'm embarking on the writing of my dissertation proposal and this has helped me put it all in perspective. I think this book contains useful advice for anyone embarking on a large writing project.
328178,2,safe and secure,"In my 20's I had a very serious fall on black ice. Since then, anytime I knew there was going to be icy weather, or anytime there was melted snow that would freeze overnight, I was fearful of going out for anything. I've already used my Yaktrax this year, and I'm no longer afraid. I feel safe and secure and look forward to stepping out. THEY'RE GREAT!!! Thank you!"
328179,2,New to winter,"Having moved from Florida to upstate NY with no knowledge of winter, the traction cleats have been a life saver. Since I don't always want to wear large snow boots, these cleats make it easy for me to wear more fashionable shoes and still make it to my car in one piece on those cold, icy mornings."
328186,2,Definitely recommend,"I ran outside the entire winter with these on my sneakers and they work awesome in the snow and ice. I did go through a pair but with as much as I used them, it was to be expected."
328277,2,Best popcorn,"This makes the best popcorn I've had and with only a teaspoon or so of oil.I have used mine for about 10 years but I think it is time for it to be replaced. It only has one small dent and a nice ""patina"" on the inside but the gears are finally giving out. I have a new one that I had bought for gift-giving purposes but I think it will be staying with me while the old one is ""retired.""I have more than gotten mine money's worth although now I am spoiled and won't eat microwave popcorn any more."
328459,2,Fabulous stuffed animal!,"I love this animal! Snuffles (a.k.a. Willie Bear) is a great gift. I received one of these bears every year for many years, and they are all wonderful!"
328588,2,Great CD - 2 standouts,"I like this CD, only 2 standout as GREAT and one other as almost great.Elliott Yamin - ""Moody's Mood for Love"" Simon said it best with ""Vocal masterclass"". This is by far the best track on the CD. His voice is beautiful and this is a technically difficult song to sing, and he did it brilliantly.Paris Bennett ""Midnight Train to Georgia"" She did this wonderfully. What a joy to listen too, gorgeous voice. Way to go Paris.Mandisa - Awesome track, better than ""karaoke"" standards that the rest sound like. Great job Mandisa."
328599,2,My favorite album,I love the upbeat feeling in this album. I can listen to it almost any time and can listen to it over and over. I love it!!!!!!!!!!
328612,2,Global Development: A Reference Handbook,"Savitt and Bottorf have done a valuable service for the discipline of development economics, first for compiling a comprehensive set of resources in the field and second for making it accessible to the beginner as well as to the expert.The authors offer a concise introduction to development, including its history and economic principles. Those with an interest in the role of women and development will not be disappointed with the treatment of issues in that area.Particularly valuable to the researcher are the reference sections, including a chronology, biographical sketches of some of the most notable figures in development, facts and statistics, organizations, an selected print and nonprint resources.This book is an excellent reference and an essential item on the shelf of every scholar - or nonscholar - who is interested in the plight of the poor throughout the world."
328692,2,Judith does it again.,"I love listening to Judiths voice.I dont think i would pay much attention to these songs if anyone else sung them.She has an ability to reach out with true emotion in her voice.Here is a a very good CD.Some of the songs have been co-written by her late husband Ron Edgeworth.But most songs have been penned by herself.The Cd i have gives a description of each song and where she got the particular songs from.She appears to have put together a collection of songs from here and there and pieced it together,and forming an exceptional cd."
328767,2,Behind the Gold Star,This is one of the best and most humorous books about the antics of police work I have ever read. I highly recommend this book to everyone.
328980,2,War With Grandpa,I like this book because it is funny. It's about a boy who had to give up his room for his grandpa. They started a war. Grandpa had problems with his leg but he succeded on the war. Peter has a little sister named Jenny and a mom and dad. Whenever Peter does something to his grandpa he gets back. And one time grandpa took Peter fishing. If you want to know more read it.
328981,2,an awsome book,War With Grandpa is an awsome book. It is about Peter Stocks and his grandpa go to war when grandpa take his room .You would like it if you like funny books. My favirot partis when granpa did his last move.
329015,2,Finally!,"Finally, a book about magic from someone other than the usual suspects, saying something other than the usual. My only complaint is that the book is sometimes difficult to read because I find myself stopping after individual essays to go for long walks and digest. Some essays, I find myself stopping after almost every sentence to think about what I've just read. I particularly like Louv's writing and ideas; there's a deep-down freshness to his writing and ""oh gosh!"" enthusiasm that I can't stop loving."
329032,2,figured it would suck but it didn't!,after seeing the trailers on tv for this (quite a while ago!) I figured it would be a cheesy movie with a few one liners - boy was I wrong! it surprised me from the beginning and I can still laugh while thinking of a few parts of it now! I don't even like Cameron Diaz but in this she does GREAT!not one for kids though! I still won't let mine watch but I'm strict like that.
329064,2,Soothing Guitar,"My first introduction to Lawrence Barris came after hearing ""Loveland"" from this cd a few years back. I own both of Lawrence's cds and I think this one is far better than his Love on Me cd. All the songs feature that soft and soothing guitar accented by keyboards and percussion. My favorite is still ""Loveland"", but other good songs include ""Our Midnight Dance"", ""Sometime, Somewhere"" and ""Afternoon Samba"". This cd is definitely worth checking out."
329119,2,Spell binding civil war stories.,"Great collection of classic and some little known tales from a terrific story teller. A master of irony, descriptiveness and sucker-punching endings. You won't be sorry."
329205,2,Much safer than plastic!,I am slowly changing all my food storage containers over to glass instead of plastic. Glass is much safer to store your food in (especially when heating food). This was a great value and over all I am pleased with the set. A couple of the bowls have a slight odd shape to them which can make it tricky to get the lids on.
329243,2,An all time classic,"A wonderful collection of the original X-wing game, with the two add on campaigns. Sure the graphics are old, as are the sound effects, and some of the missions are nigh on impossible, but it is still hard to beat for the re-play value. For any who enjoyed the original, or would like to see where the more modern versions of the same game come from, this is one to get."
329368,2,My birds are satisfied,"I've ordered this product six times so far.. due to reasonable price, free shipping and convenience of big bag. So far the quality is good. Birds love it. Each time I make my own mix of birdfood, I drool over the sunflower hearts and crave to make a salad for myself with sunflower seeds sprinkle over it (no, I didn't eat my bird's sunflower hearts), but just want to say how good this product's quality is that its makes me want some too! :)"
329420,2,"More short, simple, and readable Potato Chip editorials.","Once again the texts of several of Charles Colson's BreakPoint radio commentaries are collected into the book format. As with A Dance with Deception, which I finished a short while ago, the short editorials focusing on the difficulties with maintaining a fundamental Christian world view in a seeming increasingly harsh and anti-Christian world are readable and, more importantly, thought provoking. Recommended."
329449,2,A nice package all around,"This is really a very nice collection of love songs from Elvis. I wish the tracking order had been in chronoligcal order by year, but otherwise I'm very happy with the collection. I purchased it for the unreleased studio version of ""For The Good Times"" which is nice, but in my opinion does not come close to the live version on the Madison Square Garden album. For those that are new to Elvis thanks to the #1 hits and 2nd To None collections this will be a great way to hear a little of the different styles of music Elvis was capable of. I do have to say that ""Unchained Melody"" is a stand out on here as every Elvis fan knows that this was close to the end for him, but the voice was stronger than ever. Sure Elvis fans will have these songs in their collections already, but the remastering job by Vic Anesini is stellar and it brings new life to these classics and will not disappoint."
329507,2,great phone!!!,"its been a while since i found a phone that i can respect and say ""oooohhhh "" and ""ahhhhh"" to. this is THE phone. great design, great features and cool UI. all the features u can possibly want. wireless connectivity is excellent. the music feature is great and the speaker is the loudest i have ever heard on a phone. the only thing that i have to pick on a little is the earpiece volume. it could be a little louder but that all depends on how u put it against your ear. play around with the position and the volume changes dramatically."
329541,2,the brat pack,it is the best collection i purchased because of the 3 movies and the music compact disc that comes included. thank you raul
329557,2,Great gift for Mom,"I purchased this Loving Family Necklace for my Mom for Mother's Day. They come with all different size families and really send a strong, caring message. She cried. ;-)"
329575,2,Carefree yogurt maker,"The Salton YM9 yogurt maker is compact, easy to use and clean. I find it works best and fastest if commercial yogurt with active cultures (such as Dannon plain) is used as the starter and regular milk, rather than dry, is used for the base. The final product is sweet and creamy, despite warnings that homemade yogurt cannot rival the texture and consistency of commercial yogurt. Not so in my case. This was a great buy that I'm very pleased with. Note that you'll need a candy thermometer or food thermometer that reads temperatures as low as 100 degrees and as high as 160 degrees."
329667,2,CUTE MOVIE,DORIS DAY AND GIG YOUNG WERE VERY GOOD IN THIS MOVIE. SO WAS CLARK GABLE BUT I THOUGHT HE WAS A BIT OLD FOR THE PART.a VERY ENJOYABLE MOVIE.
329695,2,Brilliant!,"Many other reviewers have probably covered the plot and characters, so I won't waste space by reiterating it here. I just want to say how wonderfully interesting this book was: I wasn't able to put it down.I didn't loathe any characters (strange for me) and had fallen in love with several of them by the end of the story. This book will not waste your time like so many others do: you will go back and reread it over and over again, just as I have."
329739,2,Tears of Joy,"I can not remember how I found this book online but I am glad I did. I highly recommend this book for anyone who may have a million and one questions about their own faith. It gives you a new perspective and WANTING to pray to God at night because you know he hears you.There are so many good stories that I want to highlight but I would not give them the justice it deserves, so all I want to say today is to please purchase this book. I am so glad God creates different types of people, with different types of stories because it brings us all closer together."
329779,2,RIVATING,I'M ONLY 1/2 WAY THROUGH THIS BOOK AND WHAT A STORY. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PUT DOWN. WILL TELL EVERYONE WHAT I THINK ABOUT WHOLE BOOK WHEN I'M DONE.
329853,2,Bristles could be a little wider,"These brushes are a must-have for cleaning the hard-to-reach spots of the Dr. Brown accessories. But, the bristles could really stand to be wider to more thoroughly clean the ""wand"" (not sure what they're really called). Would be nice if the bristles completely filled the diameter of the wand as it passes through the tube portion."
329864,2,so so,this was good but i dont think it fit the best with the charmed series.it did have a lot of action but you did get kinda lost on whats going on at times
329909,2,Fantastic Show and Incredible Lead,"Whether the show was an intended one-off or was cancelled doesn't really matter. I have heard that Marty Shaw only wanted to do one series and it has been my fervent wish that he (and Joe Ahearne) would revisit the character of Father Jacob. That being said, I will back away from the pedantic kool-aid now.Upon reading the synopsis, you may think that the story (certainly it's type) has been told ad nauseam, but this in my opinion, is one of the best. It's highly entertaining and I found it to be thought provoking as well. The changing view of the Catholic Church was tackled head on.All in all, a wonderful show which completely engages you and makes you pull it out for multiple viewings. Well worth the cost."
330017,2,USB connector cables for iPhone,This product works well but not necessarily the first time. The first cables I received did not work when I connected my iPhone to my laptop or to the wall outlet. The company replaced the v=cables right away and the new arrivals worked well.
330055,2,Very Portable!,This is a really handy tool. You can do pretty controlled freehand cut on baseboards and plywood. The quick change system is excellent and you can change the blades in no time. It is small enough to fit it my aluminum briefcase when the blade is removed. When you are working around the house it is really convenient to have it. I leave my jig saw and circular saw in the workshop. It feels like a hand saw with more power. By the way this tools cannot replace jig saw or circular saw. The flush blade is also very good. The tool is lightweight but feels solid and well built. Variable speed goes from zero to six.
330187,2,"Nice jazz sound, solid reed, no flaws","We have bought reeds in many sizes (1 - 3.5) and styles for a clarinet and tenor sax from several manufacturers. Overall my daughter says this is her favorite for her tenor sax. She indicated there were no flaws, the cut was nice and the bamboo is a higher quality. These reeds allow more of a rasp and jazz sound. We have purchased more then once."
330214,2,"Good book, could have lived without the preverted sex scenes","This was a good book, I found it and enjoyed it. But being a 12 year old, I thought the sex was unecessary and made me uncomfortable."
330359,2,A great pick me up,These chocolate covered espresso coffee beans are as good as any I have tried. I keep a jar in my desk drawer at work for a little boost when needed. When the jar is empty I order more.
330386,2,"Un ""gramo"" de Sabina",Sabina siempre a sabido deleitarnos con repertorios vulgares y de buen gusto (raro? no) su alcance intelectual tan adelantado y su poesia sucia es lo que hace a este artista de artistas increiblemente bueno.
330421,2,Take Charge of Your Health,"Take charge of your health, that's what Patrick Quillin empowers you to do if you buy his very informative book, ""Beating Cancer With Nutrition."" The book not only helps you to defeat cancer, but gives you a detailed way to achieve optimal health. The audio CD which is included in the book reinforces what you read in the book. Listen to it anytime, in your car, while you are eating & soon you will get in the habit of doing the things to put you on track to better health. If you are now undergoing cancer therapy, be sure to include Patrick Quillin's advice. Research indicates that nutrition prolongs life & reduces symptoms of cancer therapy.I have been studying nutrition for over 40 years & recommend this book to anyone who wants to get on the road towards a happier & longer life.Morton J. Schomer, O.D.Miami Florida"
330513,2,Roomy...but weak handle,"The targus TXL617 backpack is awesomely roomy. Has pockets for everything. Carry your 17"" notebook and treat it as luggage for a trip. However handle seems just a little weak for such a massive notebook backpack. I hope it holds up to the weight."
330517,2,Great bag for college,"I got this as a gift and I use it for school. I can fit my computer, charger, books, and iPod and I have PLENTY of room to spare!"
330539,2,Great sound,These earbuds have a great sound. I gave them 4 stars because they are a little big for my wife's ears and are not comfortable to wear for long periods.
330544,2,Sweet movie,'nuf said.Now reading other people's reviews begs the questions...why are they so long? Are they auditioning for something? EVERYONE's a movie critic.
330569,2,6 stars really,"If you are an actor, amateur or pro, you MUST have this in your library. It's positively brilliant."
330645,2,Excellent TV series finally being released individually...,"This is an excellent sci-fi tv series from 1995 which gets even better with season two. The series is reminiscent of ""The Twilight Zone"". A variety of guest actors appear in the various episodes from Leonard Nimoy to Alyssa Milano. Originally only the first season was released in 2005 on DVD, with theme sets completing the collection, so it's great that it appears that each of the seven seasons will now be released individually and at a nice price. At the time of this writing a new season was to come out about every month starting in May, 2010, with season five scheduled to come out in August, 2010. So far Alliance Atlantis is only releasing the new season sets in Canada. Season 3 was released on June 1, 2010."
330671,2,WOW !,"I know very little about taking pitures, granted I understand ""how"" to, but doing it is a total different thing. This Camera is VERY good. Manual or Auto, you control all over it. It is idiot proof, or you can take control of every aspect.Like I said, I am new at all of this, but if your a beginner like myself you cann't go wrong with this camera. This was the Camera that was recommended to me over and over again. 500.00 has got me up and going ( that is with film, tripod, extra batteries, filter, camera etc. )It WOULD have gotten 5 stars, but that manual, lol kinda a hard read."
330674,2,Not just Seven,"It's not just about Seven. It has intergalatic consipracy, telepathic aliens, corruption in government, and lots of Ravens.While Seven of nine plays a pivitol role in this book, it does have a full-fledge intriguing storyline. It has some slow parts and some cliche plot points but builds to a nice action packed climactic end.If you're a Seven fan suffering from withdrawl, this book won't disappoint."
330681,2,Pet Steps,We needed steps to help our doxie get on the bed. We had to lay a bath sheet over the steps as she found then to slick and was scared to use them also if she jumps to hard on them from the bed it will scoot away and she can't get back on the bed.With some simple modifacations we have made it perfect.
330711,2,Fun toy!,"Fun, easy to use, versatile! My 4 year old loves it - from the many openings into the truck to the self-propelling motor. The cavity in the truck is also big enough for matchbox car activity too."
330712,2,"Heavy Duty, Durable but 1 Problem","I received this with my Tippmann 98 custom because I didn't want an extra 6-8 pounds on my gun from the CO2 tank. The wire is really durable and heavy duty. It will not break easily. I don't know how others are having problems with this line. I had no leaking problems at all. The problem is that it coils up when gas is running through it so you may need to break it in. I'm going to try that to see if it at least gets me a greater length. Anyways, you should get this because it's quick and easy to run this from your gun to your CO2 tank and, since it won't break and doesn't leak, it is great to have 6-8 pounds lifted from your arms."
330809,2,South American Geography,This is an excellent book for young children who are just beginning to learn about the world.
330828,2,A Fine Contextual Study of the Declaration of Independence,"Garry Wills' Inventing America is clearly a labor of love. Its learned, precise, and passionate scholarship effectively skewers much of the scholarship that preceded it. Wills forcefully repudiates the common assertion (derived largely from Carl Becker's important work) that the Declaration of Independence is an utterly Lockean document. Instead, Wills shows that Thomas Jefferson was only slightly influenced by Locke, and was instead completely a product of the Scottish Enlightenment. By placing key terms and phrases in the context of 18th century America, Wills brings the meaning of the Declaration to life, and alters its existence from a vague philosophical statement that we merely ""see"" rather than ""read"" into a specific political document with very particular meanings and functions.It is a shame that this book is out of print; it should be required reading to students of the history of American Independence."
330899,2,A Difficult Book but Worth It,Much food for thought bolstered by facts and references. Puts a very emotional issue in perspective and offers a lot to think about.
330954,2,Get ThisBook - It's great!,"""Molly and the Sword"" is a wonderful children's book. I bought it for my ten-year old niece, Anna, who lives in California. She read it and loved it, especially, she said, since she is now studying the violin. hearing that, I have mailed a copy to her violin teacher.While this book is written for young people, it should be required reading for anyone who deals with children of this age, as it conveys many of life's valuable lessons told in a delightful and straight-forward manner. I was in tears at the end of it."
331011,2,Perfect!,I purchased this ornament for my husband's niece who lost a baby this year. I wanted her to know that we hadn't forgotten him at Christmas. She was moved to tears and so thankful! The picture doesn't do it justice. High quality Lenox - a very special piece.
331045,2,VIVA LA VIE BOHEME,"Rent is a phenominal, energetic, and wild musical. I saw the show when it came down and every scene was drop dead exciting. For people who have yet to see the show, this recording is a perfect hors' dourve It brings out the full flavor of the show. from beginning to end.Anyone who wants to lynch that PHOENIX Guy type RENT RULES"
331059,2,"Lynnie, give us more!","I loved this book. I happened upon it in the library and having really enjoyed ""White Girls"" I wanted to read this one and I did in one sitting. Having grown up in the same small city in Ohio, many of the places are as familiar to me as they are to the author. I found ""21 Sugar Street"" to be a deeper, darker book than ""White Girls"" and much more touching. It left me wanting more stories from this author."
331083,2,Brillant music and lyrics,"Right from the first track this short album is entrancing, and the vocalist's voice is captivating. ""I Want you Like an Accident"" and ""20th Century Bitch"" are two of the most addictive tracks I have heard. It is criminal that this band haven't had the coverage and airplay they deserve."
331170,2,Glad to Have It,I went from a transfer bench to this. No more water on the floor and it fits fine in our tub. It's very solid and sturdy.
331223,2,microwave oven,"i already had this oven with the trim kit, so this was a replacement. it was just as cheap to get a new oven as to have the old one repaired. amazon had the best price and free shipping- which was much faster than they said it would be. i'm very happy with this purchase."
331310,2,Charge up with PowerEx,"Service was better then expected. Purchase was shipped and delivered very fast and at a geat price. Powerex NiMH Battery Charging Equipment is first class. Accessory Genie is factory authorized, and they are doing a good job of representing PowerEx. I would buy from Accessoery Genie in the future."
331333,2,ERROL & OLIVIA.,"I just viewed the beautiful colorized version of this rousing version which features the famed Little Bighorn battle and its grand entertainment. Flynn is flamboyant as all-get-out as Custer and the fine vignettes during the episodic elements build up to the exciting Last Stand climax. Olivia is fetching as Elizabeth and Grapewin's a hoot as California Joe. The first half is romantic comedy while the second leads to inevitable tragic outcome, yet it's all expertly mounted (although historically inaccurate) and played in the best old Hollywood style. Steiner score is great; this was the last teaming of DeHavilland and Flynn."
331340,2,Tight-A$$ Soundtrack!,"Y'all should get this soundtrack, if you like to dance, this is the CD to get! Since the movie was about dancing, the music's TIGHT as hell, makes ya wanna get up and dance!"
331350,2,"Great band, great album, great guys","I knew the guys of Day of Fire before ever listening to their album, and for me that meant, regretfully, being extra critical...the old ""familiarity breeds contempt"" cliche. After hearing the album, I felt like an idiot because I had to jump on the bandwagon with everybody else...they're just that good. Then I heard them live. I've seen many rock bands live, secular and Christian, mainstream and underground, and Day of Fire's concert was the best money I ever spent on music; period. If your skepticism of a Christian rock band being any good keeps you from buying this cd, get in line. You'll all miss out on one of the best bands out today."
331354,2,The Del Rubio Triplets Wonderland!,"This video is what inspired me to track down these ladies for undying worship. I actually worked for them in L.A. for a few years. Now, among the many sites I have designed for celebrities, The Del Rubio Triplets Wonderland! (http://www.thelimelight.com/delrubio.htm) was quite an escape, and was my first...please visit!...AND BUY THIS VIDEO!There's nothing like the ""heavenly tonnations of The Del Rubio Triplets"" singing ""Winter Wonderland"" to warm up to on the upcoming cold nights.BRRRRR! Get that Hot Cocoa goin', the video, and a couch partner and you're in for a rockin' good time! END"
331381,2,Crazy and nice,"Some friends of mine got lucky enough to see Polysics recently at one of their concerts and while there got this cd. I listened to it and got addicted enough to get a copy for myself! The songs on this CD are utterly insane, but that's what makes them so cool! I listen to this cd every morning to wake myself up while driving. It's fast and wild!"
331383,2,Great collection,The more I listen the more I like this collection. Most of these songs I'm familiar with but there were a few I hadn't heard. It seems to be popular with my friends too.
331387,2,very good,This was a good clean show for the entire family with enough umphf for grown ups. Male and female in our house enjoyed it.
331410,2,A strong debut in English,"Laura Pausini's first album in English has some wonderful moments on it, most notably the sensual ballads ""I Need Love"" and ""Every Little Thing You Do."" The latter song particularly shows off the sweetness and vulnerability in Pausini's style that charms her audiences. The hard-driving ""Every Day is Monday,"" known as ""Un Error de Los Grandes"" in Spanish, is also terrific, establishing that she can handle a driving rocker.The album's only real flaw is that overall it is a bit unfocused, moving between different musical styles without really committing to any. Her Spanish albums are much more consistent. Still, it's a pleasing debut, and I hope she achieves the same success in English she knows throughout the Spanish-speaking world."
331445,2,Peaceful music for baby (& parents),"We got this disc while my wife was still pregnant and she used to listen to it while going to sleep. We took a bunch of cds to the hospital with us and by chance this was what was playing when our baby was born. We now play it when putting her to sleep. The music is very calming and minimalist--a simple children's choir and just a few instruments. Because it's sung in Chinese, I find that the words aren't distracting, which I hope will be helpful once our baby is verbal. The voices are soothing and very pretty and the music sounds exotic and familiar at the same time.Update: Now, several years later, my daughter is almost 4 and listens to this when she goes to be every night. She even tries to sing the songs (though they are all in Chinese!)."
331513,2,Great great,"This tumbler is the best, I give it 5 stars!!! This makes my second one and I love it. It keeps my tea cold all day."
331588,2,She's The One,This is a great cd! I would like to buy the movie some day.When I got this cd the case was damaged. You had sent me a new case right away. You had told me I would recive my order in 10 to 14 days. I had recived my order in only 7 days. Thank you Amazon.com for you fast and great service!!! Debbie
331647,2,Great camera and delivered on time,We have two Kodak EasyShare cameras now and this one is just icing on the cake. It takes very good pictures and the printer is very easy to use.
331688,2,Confusing at first...,"We purchased these installation kits to install a gate at the top of our stairs without drilling into the ballaster posts. I can usually put things together or install things when I read the directions, but the directions for this item totally stumped me. But my husband came to the rescue and had these and the gate installed in no time. They do make for a very sturdy gate system, especially important at the top of the stairs."
331703,2,RIOT,"The Film is a Classic, It is very accurate of prisons in the early 1980's. I was surprised at the DVD Quality of it, and the seller was fast and no problems!!!"
331750,2,Relieves my fibromyalgia pain!,I have fibromyalgia and am very grateful to have discovered KRS's Inner Mastery Series. Whenever I'm in pain I don't breathe properly - and then I put on her audios and it reminds me how to breathe and relax. Before I know it the pain releases and life is good again!
331870,2,Greatly surpassed my expectations!,"I love this shoji screen! Purchased the 5 panel in Honey. I needed a screen on each side of a window so I removed two hinges and am now using 3 panels on one side and 2 panels on the other side. The honey color is much richer and more beautiful than as pictured. Hinges are very nice quality and are double-hinged so each panel can move in either direction, a nice feature! Rice paper is soft and thick while still letting diffused light through, beautiful! Oriental Furniture delivered FedEX very quickly and a day earlier than the estimated delivery window. Packaging was excellent. I recommend this screen from Oriental Furniture very highly."
331975,2,A gift that was a hit,Boought this as a gift for a sister that had never used a knife sharpener and she loves it! Also sent her chicago cutlerty knives and a largo knife magnet to go with.
331989,2,The age old question of the importance of Place in writing,"Finally, an anthology about the significance and importance of place and landscape in poetry as experienced by sixty-two poets from throughout the U.S. The author, former director of the writing program at Johns Hopkins University, and his wife spent the better part of a year traveling and interviewing poets from Rhode Island to Washington State, from Minnesota to Texas, and virtually every state in-between. They met with such award-winning poets as Sam Hamill, Naomi Shihab Nye, Charles Wright, and Rita Dove. The question was always ""What part does place play in your writings?"" The answers were as diverse as the poets and yet remarkably similar in one respect: Place does plan an important role in writing and is much more than simply geography. Together with suitable poems, photo's ,and word portraits, this is a must read for any reader interested in the craft of writing."
332036,2,I loved this book as a kid.,Mercer Mayer books are awesome. I purchased this for my son. We're building his book collection (he's only 6 months old now). This is a must have.
332053,2,Sturdy!,"So many pockets and sturdy! This is the most thorough tool belt I have ever seen. A place for everything and everything in its place! Comfortable shoulder straps, adjustable belt. It is rather heavy though so prepare yourself for a work out."
332072,2,a worthwhile insight...,"Having had this book on my bookshelf for some months,i had decided to take it with me on my 3 day holiday which proved long enough to finish,this story may start off deceivingly simple but be not fooled there is alot to be learned from this book,while some may find the pace a tad slow there is meaning to this book and a suitable ending that answer enough questions that the book will probably have risen,overall i found it insightful into the human psyche relative to the universe,and our general disposition was cleverly depicted,also our protagonist Matthew is no cliche and neither are the devices the plot uses...I have not really delved into the story as i didnt know much when i started and i found myself pleasantly suprised with the reading material...Mr Wyndham definitely deserves the kudos he got for this book although this book may not be for everyone"
332097,2,Scared the pants off of me...,"This isn't my cup of tea, but for the record this game scared the pants off of me... it still sends shivers down my spine. Very atmospheric lighting and sound, and has the suspense of a horror flick right on the money. Don't expect a hack and slash. More like a CSI episode written by M. Knight Shyamalan."
332132,2,A truely entertaining lesson on flight history.,This is a must have for all those who are interested in flight history
332255,2,Great stories!!!,I love reading about the tragic hero and the ultimate tragic hero is Oedipus. This is a must-read for everyone that loves ancient Greek literature. The stories connect well with each other and the translation by Robert Fagles is the best and easy to understand. I borrowed this book for my comparative literature class and I loved it so much that I purchased my own copy and have read it twice so far!!!!! I give it the highest possible recommendation for any reader to have...you will not be disappointed!!
332268,2,EXCELLENT PRODUCT,"What a great item! I have had hand surgery & this has been so very helpful. My only complaint is that the top dosn't raise high enough to open taller jars, aslo I have noticed the rubber that goes around the jars has been coming off, if I loose this it will not be able to open jars. Otherwise THANKS!"
332270,2,Excellent,I received the order in one week. I was thrilled about that. The Lids Off Jar Opener arrived here in new condition. It works very well. I am extremely pleased with everything.
332294,2,Fantastic!,"I had passed this book up time and again but finally read the reviews and decided to give it a try and I am glad I did. The cover is what misled me to pass on it several times- just seemed a little over the top, but the book is very well done. I encourage you to try it too if you like strong heroes and heroines!"
332295,2,capo dorlando,"Every Sicilian that left Sicily should read Danilo Dolci, it will impress an understanding to why millions of Siciliani fled. Their souls and hearts, of course, left behind. Danilo Dolci, was a gift to Sicily. He sat and listened, and watch life evolve, try to gift Sicilians a window to other worlds."
332301,2,"Nice for bellydancers, bellydancer wannabes, or anyone who wants an easy low-impact workout!","I have done a number of bellydance tapes, and this is one of my favorites. I love how Alexandra faces a mirror while working out so you can see what both your front AND back are supposed to be doing :-) You don't just learn to bellydance, you get a nice set of toning exercises for the arms, legs and stomach as well as a fun, easy low-impact aerobic workout. Not only does this workout help develop a toned body, it builds body awareness and confidence as well!"
332325,2,A superbly written historical novel,"Set in 1814 after Napoleon has abdicated as Emperor of the French, Richard Woodman's, The Shadow Of The Eagle, is a superbly written historical novel filled with intrigue and ruthless politics , from the Russian Tsar's delusions of grandeur to the naval forces of Great Britain pressing relentless war against America. A single man, Captain Nathaniel Drinkwater attending King Louis, learns of a deadly threat to peace that he must personally risk life and limb to combat. The Shadow Of The Eagle is a very compelling, entertaining, action/adventure read from first page to last."
332403,2,A joy for every meteorite collector,"Though I got Norton's Encyclopedia of Meteorites first, I'm glad I still bought this one as it is more beginner friendly, and delights every reader of the meteorite legends and bed time stories.I use to have this principle not to buy the second book of the same author, as the content is almost the same. The encyclopedia is still an excellent reference for the more technically inclined individuals, I should say for geologist its easy for them to see eye to eye, but ""Rocks from Space"" has always been recommended by almost every meteorite dealer and collectors, and they can't be wrong. Its a must for every collector in their library. Mr. Norton has always been close to many a meteorite collector, and the reader can share his views without boundaries."
332419,2,For the 2-D fighter fans,"There is just one word to describe this game: outstanding. I have been playing 2-D fighting games for 10 years and I truly believe this is a masterpiece. For Ryu, Ken, Akuma, and Shina Akuma fans, this is definitely a game that needs to be mastered by these people. Furthermore, the wide selection of characters not only diversifies the game-play, but lengthens the game time. To master ""ALL"" the characters with the different groove settings (type of fighter sequence), may take awhile but it is worth the challenge. The SNK characters are wonderfully crafted and the graphics are well done. If you are a SFII, King of Fighters, fatal Fury fan, this is a 2-D game that you don't want to miss."
332473,2,Great compact camera!,"I got one in October 2003 and it makes images as good as my $4,000 DSLR. You can see my comments in detail at http://kenrockwell.com/canon/a70.htm and examples of photos at http://kenrockwell.com/bestI LOVE it! Runs forever on a set of batteries, easy to use, great results. Caveat: like all cameras, it is an artists tool. No camera just makes great photos all by itself.Ken"
332650,2,All 4 of my kids LOVE this game.,"Although it contains ""violence"", the characters are all from video games and are animated. Another feature is that all 4 kids can play together!"
332675,2,kit wilderness the book,"I thought the book was very good.strange but not ordinary.GIt is very haunting and quite freaky. i also found it exciting and it made me read every page.this book was a reader.my favourite part was at the end where it was christmas and everyone became friends.i know that as long as there are others to see us, we will walk here together forever."
332700,2,Just what I wanted,"Good value. I simply needed a ball bag to quickly and easily move balls from my storage rack to the park whether near or far - simple so I didn't want to pay to much. It weighs next to nothing which is good when I walk and keeps balls from rolling all over when I take the car. The bag is a bit big for just a few balls but sometimes I throw in all the balls, baseball mitts, a frisbee, etc. I own and holds all well. This bag is exactly what I needed and does the job. The quality is good and seems like it will last. Perhaps a dark color bag would be better than white cause I don't think using bleach to clean it would be a good idea. Glad I bought it (we'll see if I still feel that way in a few years, but...)."
332726,2,read it,"I recommend every parent to read this book, especially parents with teenagers. I am a teenager, and yes I do read, so I'm telling all parents to go read this now."
332809,2,This book is very important to understand how company are sued.,The story of truth is well written and the author living through what companies that are doing good have suffered by the hands of greedy people to stop letting people know that out there is something that can and does help them.
332890,2,Delightful!,"This book is well worth finding if you love ducks. And if you don't love ducks, you probably will after you read this wonderful book. Funny and educational, I enjoyed every minute of it. Suitable for adults and older children."
332911,2,Kissin as a Pianist,"Though Kissin is accomplished for his age, he is still a fledgling performer which was manifested in these performances. I do believe he gets progressively more profound in every release. However, Schubert's sublime masterpieces are a joy to listen to no matter who conveys them."
332942,2,"Very interesting and readable, why is author a cynic","This is an extremely readable historical narrative. Fascinating as it is, the author's interruptions to make cynical, generalized statements in regard to the current generations of Americans were inappropriate and unnecessary. I read the book to find out what happened then. I took offense to his comments about the descendants of these New Englanders and the current generation of Americans. Does the author include himself in these remarks? He is an historian first rate but he is not an editorialist on current America."
332947,2,Nice set of features with only one small wish and a small annoyance.,"Uniden has done a good job with this phone. I like it very much with only one small wish: I wish it had a headset port and the ability to take it ""off-the-hook"" without actually lifting the handset.I had been looking for a decent analog phone to replace my broken Contel that I wasn't happy with before it broke. After researching the available phones and based upon past experience with Uniden products (we own a couple of their 900MHz DSS phones for the house) I decided to go with this model. I have not been disappointed.Now, to the annoyance: The ringer on both the included cordless and the base unit is not loud enough. Some nice tunes, but none of them really loud enough to be heard when asleep. As I used to be on-call quite a bit, this was an important feature. Now, I need it louder so calls from friends and family when I'm sleeping in on Sunday morning wake me up so I can answer."
332954,2,Entertaining is an understatement,"Having read Le Carre, Clancy, and Condon, I rate this new novel as one of the best I have ever read. This is a thriller with historical interest. A real page turner to say the least."
332957,2,My Favorite Sneakers Ever,"I've been wearing this model for years. I love the way they look and feel. And they are incredibly light weight.I can be on my feet all day with no discomfort. I would like to pass on one precaution: the toe is fragile where the sole curls up and is glued to the uppers. If you stub your toe, the sole will likely begin to ""peel"" away In spite of this shortcoming, I continue to buy them because they are so great! Also, I think the sizes may run a little small because I have to order 11 1/2 even though I've never been over 11 in any other shoe."
333065,2,great pricing,The ink pack came in a plain carton box which is fine. Each individual cartridge was factory sealed as same as the one in store with fancy printed packages.
333077,2,comprehensive and as interesting as this subject can be,"while accounting can never be truly exciting, Ms. weiss has found a way to atleast make it bearable. as a business student pursuing an mba in accounting, weiss helps bring everything together in a clear and concise manner. enjoy!"
333132,2,Excellent Product for the Price,"This has been a hard item to find locally because of all the recent storm activity. Luckily Amazon had this in stock and at a competitive price. With regards to shipping I received the product just a few days after ordering it.I installed this at my father's house and it was quite simple (very DIY Friendly) and it took no more than three hours to install. I paired this with a B&S; 5500 watt generator and it operates really smoothly. The most complicated part, which was not really complicated, was balancing the loads. I highly recommend product for those to have the need to power a smaller house."
333146,2,Fresh Approach To Familiar Standards,"I've a friend in America to thank for introducing me to Barbara Rosene. Having long collected recordings of the twenties and thirties I was just blown away. Unlike today's lyrics (too distinguished a term, but let that pass) those from that bygone age related to life, and can't just be trotted out. Barbara is the ideal interpreter, putting her remarkable voice at their service. Unlike some of her other recordings (which are well worth seeking out also) the accompaniment does not rely on the original arrangements, thus providing a fresh approach to these familiar standards.PS. What an unfortunate typo in the listing thoughtfully provided by the previous reviewer. Track 7 should read ""Blame It On My Youth""."
333234,2,An Unpretentious Look at Race,"Gates' commentary in this work is insightful without coming across as pretentious or apologetic. Surprisingly, Gates has written a book about race without injecting any invective or peppering it with position papers for how things ought to be, as many political figures would and as Gates himself has done on talk and panel shows. Gates does illuminate the history of black figures in literature and their achievements and accomplishments which may tend to steer this work toward a literary criticism and away from a criticism more appropriate for ethnic studies or black studies. All in all, Gates is a proper steward of black culture: he offers it to the world without any strings."
333260,2,Charlie Trash Truck,"This is a great little DVD for kids. My grandson, Jacob just loves this show and asks me to put it on each time he comes to visit; sometimes three and four times that day. It also has lots of good info on recycling; how to separate your items and how the whole recycling process works. Very informative for little minds. Great!"
333277,2,Does what it's supposed to,"I bought this from Amazon hoping that it would work well because it was in bulk. I've been trying to be a little more Earth friendly lately, and dishwasher products are the latest on my list of ways to go green.I really like this product. It cleans my dishes just fine. I haven't noticed any difference between this and other products. To be honest, I always rinse off my dishes before sticking them in the washer anyway, so I couldn't attest to how well it gets off crusty, dried on food. My glasses come out nice and clear, though, and I don't ever see any food residue on anything."
333312,2,Zumba Advanced 60 Minutes,"It was worth purchased, I really enjoy to use this type for exercise, forget time and all done."
333389,2,Another Johansen winner!,"This is ellen in atlanta, and we atlantans like our local writers to succeed and succeed this gal does - It is always good to have a premise that works and Ms. Johansen has that to a 'T' -an abused woman overcoming her misfortune with help of an extremely sexy super rich strong man to not protect her, but to bring her strengths out and show her he is by her side, not to dominate or hurt - The premise works and when she brings in 2 cutie pie dophins and a search for a place cooler than Atlantis, the pages fly by.This is another must read for Iris Johansen fans and also a stand alone book that does not refer back to any of her previous books' characters."
333712,2,Review,"This is an excellent book for a number of reasons:A very good overview of the German and Soviet army replacement system.A very good overview of the strength and equipment of both armies units from a battalion level up.Mentions of the effect partisan operations had on the transportation net.Mentions the Ost battalions, and different German Security Divisions.For Operation Bagration this is not the book that describes that operation in detail. That book has not been written in English yet. When it is published it will probably run 3 volumes. What you get is a very good overview. I used it to get the names of the divisions operating in a specific area during the operation. From there you can begin the process of drilling down.The author does write clearly. In parts it flows like a novel. In other parts the list of units partcipating tends to be rather overwhelming."
333723,2,Great Variety of Musical Styles,"Superbly produced, from the 12/8 Toto-type rock feel of the opening track, He is Alive to the latin rhythms of War Symphony. I would recommend this CD for any musical enthusiast no matter what genre you prefer. The ballads range in style from cutting electric guitar solos accompanied by driving power chords to softer ballads with simple acoustic accompaniment. A must hear for anyone who appreciates the message of love in a powerful format, and who likes contemporary Christian music with personality."
333759,2,A truckers guide,Bought this for my son who drives 18 wheelers cross country. He uses it daily and has found it almost indispensable.
333807,2,Big House Humidifier,"We have had this product for about a month, and it certainly puts a lot of water in the air. It is a little loud on high speed, but medium speed seems to keep our humidity (2700 sq ft, unit upstairs) in healthy range. I like that it cleans the air, and by the looks of the filter it is at least somewhat effective. Of course that means you need to buy filters, (every month or two) which can be pricey.One issue is that the automatic feed valve at the bottom of the two tanks doesn't seem to well calibrated. I have to set the tanks just right or only one will feed and the unit will run out of water quickly. I haven't seen this comment before, but I don't see any other way to put the tanks in place, so I'm thinking it's a design flaw. Not a big deal, I recommend this for people humidifying a bigger space."
333819,2,Another Delightul Time with Agatha!,"If you enjoy the Agatha/Staggerford tales of this author, you are in for a treat here....loved it! I've read all of them, and wish he would write even more, she's such a lovely character!"
333833,2,GREAT panties for men,"I would just like to say that I just got a package of these nylon high cut panties and let me tell you, they are INCREDIBLE. I think I am now gong to swear off of the cotton high cut panties and go with these. They are SOOOO comfortable you can't evn tell you are wearng anything at all. They have a real feminine look and feel to them. The lace waist band is a very nice touch and the leg openings are snug but not overly tight. The best part about these is that they do a SUPERB job of keeping the male anatomy in place!!!!! I HIGHLY recomend these for men and women. A not on sizing: I am a size 10 in the cotton high cut briefs but I fit ABSOLUTELY PERFECTLY into a size 9 in the nylon elegance panties! Also a note for the ladies, these panties DO I REPEAT DOOOO have a cotton crotch lining. These are well worth the price."
333883,2,great purchase,I am very pleased with this purchase. I bought this book for my son and he was very pleased with this! Very fast shipping!!!
333899,2,Fantastic!!!!,"You know how some workout videos get old after awhile??? Not this one! When I got the video I was about 13-14 weeks and was still going to my regular yoga classes at our gym. However, after doing the DVD just one time I was hooked and have not returned to class! I feel like I am getting an excellent strength and cardio workout with a focus on movements that are safe for me and our baby. I look forward to doing it every time and on some days have actually chosen it over other planned workouts!"
333902,2,Essential reading,Reconstruction is so often taught and remembered as something Southern; New York in this era is usually thought of in terms of Northern industrialization and Gilded Age values. What David Quigley does is nothing less than force us to rethink this entire period of American history and see New York as the center of our modern political order. Essential reading--this is a book that will eventually reshape the way this period is taught.
333903,2,Putting it all together,"No doubt about it Sophia knows her stuff when it comes to astrology. She is one of the best. This book puts it all together for you if you have been trying to get down to the nitty-gritty of forecasting. With her book, you are not left up in the air. You can mark your moment."
333925,2,Roger Cicero - Männersachen,"Wow, this guy and his band are good! This CD is a must for big band/swing enthusiast and good music lovers in general. After listening to this CD I would have to agree with earlier reviewers that it really doesn't matter that the vocals are all in German.In fact, it's really kind of refreshing.The band and the horn arrangements are absolutely amazing throughout the album. While we in the U.S. are subjected to Mariah Carey asking to ""touch her body"" (which I doubt will happen anytime in the future...) Roger Cicero and his band are putting out some really, really good music! There are a few good video clips out on ""YouTube"" so you can judge for yourself (skip the crappy homemade videos as they will only irritate you). View the good videos, buy the CD from [...], and tell a friend to do the same."
333934,2,Tomorrow I start pricing lofts,"The writing is inspired--succinct and descriptive--not a wasted or overblown word. The photos and illustrations are mouth-watering. This book says if you are the least bit adventurous, look into loft living. If you are truly creative and not afraid to admit it, you must live in a loft."
333963,2,Perfecto,I'm very satisfied. I can now hide my herbs and spices in it and it covers up the smell very well!
334052,2,cute and cuddly,"Bought this for someone old enough to give it gentle hugs. It still looks brand new after 2 years, but its exclusively used for bedtime cuddles."
334091,2,Great little Vac,"First of all, DON'T BUY the SUGGESTED FILTER AND BELTS. They are the wrong filter. You would want to get the F2 Filter, not the F1. You would also want to get Belt 15 and not the 12. If you follow that information you will save some time and a lot of hassle.I use the vacuum to clean my pellet stove mostly. It works greats because of the Hepa filter. Other than that because of its size I keep it in our basement. It works on carpet and on hard surfaces too. It is a great cleaning tool to have especially for that price."
334103,2,One of the best bluetooth headsets,I purchased this product and was more than pleased with my choice. Its small and the reception is great with crystal clear sound. I recommended it to some friends and they also say its the best headset they ever had.
334175,2,"I couldn't believe it, but it WORKED!!","Was a little tricky to set, and I had absolutely NO FAITH in the product; however, it WORKED!! I had one false trip the first week. Than a week later I saw it was tripped again, so I assumed it was another false alarm, but NO!! I dug up the area and found a dead mole. Sorry I had to kill him, but he had to go!! GREAT PRODUCT!!"
334232,2,excellent machine,I have been making espresso at home for over 20 years. I have had many different types of machine. This machine makes perfect espresso and perfectly steamed milk. It is as good as any machine for sale and certainly the best one for the money. No need to look any further.

334349,2,Cat calming spray,"Cats are sensitive animals and anything new in their lives can cause stress. When stressed, cats may relieve themselves outside their litter box, destroy furniture and household items by scratching and worst of all by releasing musky-smelling spray from the glands near their anus. Spraying is a prime reason for cats being relinquished to shelters. Feliway Spray is a pheromone that helps to calm cats during stressful times and keeps them from wanting to spray indoors. It also encourages them to use the litter box. It is easy to apply very sparingly via the spray bottle it comes in. The only negative comment I have about the product is it has a short life and any area you are trying to protect must be sprayed frequently. The Feliway Company also manufactures a diffuser that you can plug in like a room deodorizer/fragrance releaser. I think the diffuser is a good idea and we plan to try that soon."
334421,2,pirelli womens'watch,"Like the watch very much, it's lightwieght and very easy to read. My only criticism is it looks a litlle cheap."
334511,2,Great Knife,"I had recently acquired a taste for buying and eating extremely large loafs of bread from the local Andronicos and was in desparate need for a bread knife.This knife has exceeded my wildest imaginations, bought it based on all the rave reviews lauding the Forschner brand of knives.I feel it certainly lives up to the hype."
334556,2,What about the Savages?,"This was an interesting book, as it told the story of several men during the French and Indian War. A British officer,a French officer, a Scot who fought as an enlisted British soldier and a Caughnawaga native. The story was well told and historically accurate and each character blossomed during the story, especially the native. But as I finished the book each was the fate of his own destiny, except the native. He completely vanished from the ending. I was very disappointed due to the fact that most of the beginning of the book focused so much on him. Even with that fact it is a fine book to enjoy."
334571,2,a wonderful story,The Hollow Kingdom is absolutely enchanting. As with all good books I read and love I was swept fully into the story. Ms. Dunkle has an extraordinary imagination and sense of creativity. This is a terrific fantasy tale that will entertain adults as well as young people.
334590,2,A WELCOME BREAK FROM THE MONOTONY OF THE MAINSTREAM,"As the other reviewers point out this is not a straight foward single genre album. It mixes styles akin to Radiohead's ''Kid A'', gloomy indie style vocals and experimental hip-hop.I bought this on the same day i got B.R.M.C and Preston School of Industry and i listened to Hood after listening to those. It really took me back and made me listen in depth (whereas the others struggled to take a hold on the listener, not that they weren't anygood.)Easily the best song on this album has to be track 3, while the most likely single is track 6. Tracks 1, 2, 4 and 10 also are very very good however tracks 5, 7 and 8 are an unstructured mess and would fit into KID A easily. This 'underground' band really are different and worth a listen.Avoid if you like the simple easy to comprehend mainstream sounds of bands like the Stereophonics and Travis."
334610,2,The best Rachel Alexander novel yet!,"I highly, highly recommend this book. I have read all the other Rachel Alexander and Dashiell books and this is the best by far!!! It is very well written and I fell in love with Madison, the little lost girl in the book. She touched my soul, as she did Rachel Alexander's. If you have not read all the other books, that is okay...this book can stand by itself.If you love mysteries with good character development, and a plot that engrosses you to the point that you do not want to put down the book until you finish, then this is the book for you."
334613,2,Works fine,"This battery works fine, bought it 3 years ago. But In a previous home I just used a marine battery which lasted over 5 years and is less expensive (shhhh, I bought it from Walmart - don' tell Jeff Bezos)."
334643,2,strange at first,"the squids are a little strange at first, but once you get past the initial weird phase, you're gonna laugh, then you're gonna puke, but it's cool cause you'll be puking WHILE you're laughing...enjoy"
334681,2,My son and daughter love these,"I find that they are better than the fruit roll ups of old. While I loved roll ups as a kid, I like these better because they do seem to be a more natural option. The sugar content is a concern, but my kids don't seem to be gaining a ton of weight by eating them. The only thing I have found is a problem with the product is sometimes they can be a little hard, but this tends to be the minority from my purchases from Amazon.comUpdate:I looked on the back to see what the ingredients are and did not see sugar listed. Apple puree concentrate, pear puree concentrate, strawberry puree, natural strawberry flavor, lemon juice concentrate. ""All sugar comes naturally from fruit."""
334721,2,Can't use alkaline batteries!,"One of the criteria I used in selecting this camera, was that it use AA batteries. Well it does, but only Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries!It says it CANNOT use ""Managanese batteries, lithium batteries, nicad batteries, alkaline batteries*.""It does say ""Alkaline batteries can be used with the DSC-P31.""Other than that, it is a great camera. It comes with 2 ""AA"" nickel-metal hydride batteries, but be prepared to buy a spare pair."
334739,2,Casio PV-400Plus Cassiopeia works for me !,I bought the PV400Plus in Sept 2000 at Wal-mart. I have sincebought one for my spouse too. ...it is a great buy. We syncronise diaries and contacts. It has been very useful for storing the Christmas shopping list and the secret code has kept the information safe from the kids who like to play the games on them. I recently tavelled overseas with it and found the time zone dual clock very useful for keeping the time change straight. I used the built in alarm to walk up to while in the hotel.
334794,2,Great for entertaining!,I got this for my nephew and he loves it! We found that it entertains him for hours while we are able to focus on making dinner or other things around the house. He loves it - sometimes the elephant noise scares him but that just makes us laugh! :)
334838,2,Great monitor!,I use this monitor at work every day. It is great. Very bright and works with analog or digital signals. You won't be dissappointed with this or any other Samsung monitor.
334886,2,Alex cured my Apathy!,"When it comes to informative documentaries about our nations future, this movie puts all the facts that are hidden by the media and the globalist and lays it right in front of your eyes and ears. People will tell you, there is no such thing as the Bilderberg Group and there is no ""North American Union"", until....they watch this movie and find out what has been hidden until now. I used to think people were crazy when they spoke about things that were not said on my TV. Alex Jones' TerrorStorm cured my Apathy.Terrorstorm: 2nd Edition"
334994,2,nostolgia in a box,"I bought this for my 9 year old to read, and have found myself entranced once again with a series that is both exciting, dark, and heroic. My son has taken to reading it aloud to me while i cook so we can share the adventure together."
335030,2,Antenna Works well,"I purchased this antenna to pick up local channels and was very happy with the number of channels I got. I thought I would get maybe 2-3 channels, but instead got 5. The antenna is being used in the Milwaukee, WI area where it is relatively flat, so there is not much obstruction from mountains or anything like that. The antenna is very simple and surprisingly effective."
335118,2,A Surprising Journey,"This is a marvelous story about a strong woman who facedadversities and struggles that could have shattered an ordinarylife. Leaving a home of abuse to face even more extraodinary events that could never have been predicted, caused her at times to search deeply for inner strength. She never weakened, butinstead turned to prayer and God for courage. You will enjoythe journey reading Jan's life as she faced the death of fourhusbands while raising a family. Jan tells her story beautifullyas she looks back into her past, but brightens as she looks tothe future."
335124,2,glitter,this is a beautiful piece of jewelry that is both high quality for modest means. A piece anyone would love to own!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
335210,2,Quick! Easy!! and Delicious!!!,"I am an Indian and a big fan of cookbooks - both as a coffee-table collection and for actual cooking. This book has some interesting recipes, some better than the others. The few that we have tried out so far were really good and I can think of quite a few more that look tempting from the description. Most of them seem to be ""quick and easy"" as the author suggests; even though some of them may call for a relatively high number of ingredients. Having said that, most Indian entrees do require a lot of ingredients. My only complaint is the lack of attractive pictures. There are a few, but not nearly enough. I am a visual person and a few more colored pictures would make this a great coffee-table addition!"
335221,2,Yes,"This stuff is great. Holds well, doesn't flake, smells .... amazing. Seriously this stuff smells amazing. Emulsify a bit longer than you normally would and I like to use it on mostly dry hair and kind of ... *scrunch* ... it in. I have shorter ""messy"" hair and this stuff is perfect for keeping it styled without looking greasy. Only stuff I'll use."
335257,2,The Best Book Ever Written for Small Business Owners,"I have been in advertising for over 30 years and I can tell you that this is the best book I have ever read on the subject, and believe me, I've read them all. I first read this book in 1995 and immediately bought a case of the 33 Rules to give to my clients. The clients that read the book and followed the 33 Rules enjoyed tremendous sales increases. They say it was the best gift they had ever received. Especially powerful are what the authors call the Real Issues, such as how to develop a specific growth objective and a system for holding your advertising expenditures absolutley accountable. My advice, read the book, follow the rules and watch your sales grow."
335268,2,Great value and sound!,"These are very nice replacement 4"" speakers for someone with an amp - or a head unit with decent power. If you just stick these in as a replacement for low power stock speakers, you might not have adequate power, thus resulting in distortion when you turn up the volume. With my Sony giving them 52Watts they sound good - but would definitely handle more. I'm pleased, and would definitely recommend."
335305,2,Great bike,The bike is really nice and works great. I love the multiple resistance levels and all the different features it offers. Very good quality.Assembly was relatively easy except for the computer electrical harness connection. The pins are easy to break and you have to be careful you insert in the right direction.
335323,2,Great Documentary.,"Very good documentary concerning America's long forgotten war. Overshadowed by the American Civil War some 15 years later, it might have been the defining War for the United States in the nineteenth century."
335357,2,Great Product,"I've been using this for a few days now and it does what I expect it to: it stays in the door frame. It's got a nice, sturdy feel to it. The rubber pads in the ends help it stay in the door frame without damaging it. It only came with one set of brackets. If you want a pull up bar, this is a good one."
335408,2,This book is simply one of the best fantasies I've ever read,"It is rather late, and although I should be getting to bed for my health's sake, I must say something about this book...About 2 weeks ago, I finished it's (comparitively) mediocre sequel, and the names of the characters of the Iron Throne STILL evoked emotions in me, even though I finished the book close too a year ago. Now THAT is the indicator of a book that is truly excellent. I commend Mr Hawke for his first book and will always be thankful too him from providing me with such a involving and enjoyable book for the 2 short weeks it took me to gobble the text up.Signed, Paul Knight"
335421,2,nice purchase,"It was a great pleasure to find such a wonderful cd with Saint-Saens;I didn't had the opportunity to find,until now in any store this item."
335422,2,A Mockumentary of Greek/Roman Mythology?,"I believe I was about three-quarters through this book when I finally realized had been gnawing on my brain: this book is little more than a charming romp through mythology. Do not let that ""little more"" line let you think I have a negative opinion of this book. Quite the opposite.As many books nowadays combine fairy tales, this throws peninsula/island mythology into a single adventure and cleverly and kindly removes the fantastic from them in favor of a sweetly simpler light. The supposed great heroes are mere, loveable individuals that dig their ways into the heart.The story is funny, charming, and distinctly Alexander. The characters are his usual, but if you are a fan of this characters and the Lloyd Alexander format, this will be certain to please."
335456,2,know your enemies,My copy of this book is held together by rubber bands due to the use it has seen over the last 35 or so years. If you aren't comfortable using the key for identification in the back of the book the clear pen and ink drawings are more than enough to enable you to name your opponent. An invaluable resource for the knowledgeable gardener.
335469,2,Love 'em,My son loves these books and they make good book report material and I don't mind the stories either.
335475,2,Great toy!,"Love this dog toy. Very rugged-took my Lab a week to kill the sound on it. It says ""Oh No!"" instead of squeaking and that is too funny. Decent toy for the money."
335499,2,Love this film!!,What a great film!! Only the French could have done this in just this way. The symbolism is beautifully moving! Enjoy!
335604,2,My nephew loves it!,It's really wonderful - my nephew absolutely loves it.Reminds me of the Alf tent I had as a child.
335633,2,travelling companion,I needed something portable to keep me on key when practicing my music for a community choir group. Love the portability.
335648,2,Excellent Tie Rack!,Just as adevertised and works wonderfully. Mounts easily and rotates at just the right speed.
335695,2,addicting party game,"when your playing this game on your own it can get kind of boring but when played with 2 or more, its really fun. its almost like the mario party games which are also fun. the bobble-headed characters look funny too. its a good game if your looking for fun, not a plot or strategy game you have to save. its fun."
335719,2,So honest it hurts!,"I read Poppy Z. Brite's ""The Real Story"" before ""Queen of Noise"". Brite left out a lot of hard-core details. Rossi, however, did not. This is a real pageturner, I couldn't even put it down! Now, I really feel as if I know Courtney. (Even though I'm not her biggest fan)"
335796,2,Overland Limited Jogging Stroller,"This stroller really gives you a workout. Everyday when I take out my daughter I start off by putting on my music, which my daughter loves, and then from there the workout begins. I can feel the burn in my legs automatically when I am strolling with my daughter."
335860,2,Great Knife!!,"I had never used a bread knife before I purchased this as an addition to my kitchen. I was very pleasantly surprised at the ease that this knife cut through loaf of crusty sun dried tomato bread. Just the right texture to increase the surface so toasting really works well, without an excess of crumbs. And the price was excellent."
335901,2,A Few quirks,"This product is very ez to setup and get going. However, I have run into a few problems with it and Linksys has a very very weak web site for support and help. Using PC anywhere makes the whole LAN hiccup and can only be fixed by resetting or powering down the router. Also, enabling a port for the a SQL server made the client access to the internet disappear. There needs to be more support for this crafty product. As more and more people move to a home network, the questions will arise, and Linksys needs to have the replies and resolve. This is a good product, however, it is a little buggy.JOHN CORIA"
335986,2,very practical information,"This book has alot of practical information and has much more detailed culture information about many different orchid families, also has information about small orchid families that I have not found in any other book about orchids.This book also gives step by step instructions on how to repot or divide several different types of orchids including paphiopediliums and Phrags."
336003,2,excellent shoe,The size is perfect and of great quality compared to the ones I got in JC Penny for $60 to $70. This is $30 but of much better quality.
336016,2,A great pasticher,"No, August Derleth did not have the originality of his mentor, H.P. Lovecraft, but he could still raise a chill in his continuations of the Cthulhu mythos. Well worth reading, especially with the expert notes by Joe Wrzos."
336024,2,Great Game,"It a new take on the car race game. Combine the adventure of RPG and the thrill of racing and you have this game. In Japan these type games are very popular. The Japanese version of the game has just been released in Japan as a ""greatest hit"".A game safe for all ages and will last longer than other racing games due to the RPG story line. More mature violence loving players may not find this game that great, but it's a must for any racing player. Over all this game was not a waste of time or money and should bring hours of fun to anyone."
336051,2,Good Value and Lots of Fun,Purchased for my son's dorm room in college. Easy to pack in a suitcase and fun in the dorm. Rather good size once installed on the door and folded out. Cool.
336136,2,Awesome Tilt Wall Mount SUPERB FAST SHIPPING!!!!,"awesome mount easy to install, operate, just set it and forget it.The shipping from this company was hands down blazing fast."
336205,2,Great workout!,"This was the third bellydance video I've tried and really enjoyed it. There were some parts that could have been better. For example, at times, the camera focused on her face when she was doing moves with the hips. I needed to see exactly how the move was being done but had to improvise and hope I was doing it right. Yes, she is very beautiful but it would have been better to watch the entire move. Also, some moves were only done once or in one set as soon as I was getting it. It was a little inconvenient to stop the tape and practice. Other than that, it is a great workout which is fun. The negatives don't detract too much from the overall tape. I look forward to doing the workout each day and do feel I get better each time I do it. I even work up a sweat! Overall, I do recommend this tape. It's a new and different way to move each day!"
336318,2,it works,"Ordered thru Amazor for the best price and free shipping. It does what it says it will do. It helps support a weak si. I wear it all the time, it doesn't take away all the pain but does take away some and makes my back more stable. I am able to do more now but still can't sit or stand for long periods without increased pain. But that's my story maybe you will have a different story."
336350,2,face shield,"These are great face shields, keeps the wind, rain or dust out of your face when riding. definitely worth buying."
336355,2,Excellent Set of DVD's,"I love ""I Love Lucy"" so much!!! This is my go-to series for blue days. Well worth the money."
336356,2,Lucy show,"Lucy is funny and fun to watch, I wish more sitcoms were made like this, I will buy more shows and movies from Amazon"
336362,2,Compelling reading.,"Great story. I loved the main character's. What I loved about this story was the fact that the couple did not keep on snapping at one another then making up , time and time again until the last few pages. I read this book in a day, as I found it hard to put down. The story, to me was brilliant. More like this Helen please."
336389,2,"Fabulous Illustrations, Wonderful Gift Idea","If you've been to Paris at all, you'll recall some of the street corners and landmarks in this sketchbook. But if you haven't been there, these elegant and intimate illustrations done by Moireau will trigger your fantasy about the wonderful city. There is a plethora of competent guide/travel books about Paris with lots of pictures and photographs, but none capture the whimsy of the place like this book does. Mary Kelly's narrative asides complement the illustrations unobtrusively. Once again, Moireau's poetic portraits of the various areas of the city are a marvel to behold; I could really see the love this artist had for the city. The book also has a nice flow to it, so as you move through the book to the end, you feel as though you've taken a nice, slow walk through the Parisian streets. A lovely book."
336542,2,dishes,"just wonderful love my dishes, they arrived just as promised and i am disabled and have to use light dishes so these are perfect"
336589,2,WAGNER IS GOD,"Wagner, quite simply, was the best composer that ever existed in the history of this universe. He created an art form that was not music, not poetry, not drama, not ""art;"" it was, in short, a combination of all of the above, in equal proportions. I can't quite put it all into words, but I must say that in order to truly understand Der Ring des Nibelungen, and indeed all Wagner, you must study the works in depth.Solti was also a fantastic composer, and certainly conducts this opera cycle wonderfully. If you wish to hear what Wagner should sound like, and hear an ""accurate"" yet emotional rendition of Der Ring... then you simply must buy this."
336626,2,An Awesome Combination of Ministry and Music,Lizz is a PK (preacher's kid) and it shows. This CD is in constant rotation for me now. HER SOUND is so soulful and the lyrics are beautiful. She takes jazz to a whole new level - reminds me of Dianne Reeves in some ways. It's worth it just for her rendition of WALK WITH ME and SOON AS I GET HOME. As a bonus - you get the powerful lyrics of Eternity. SING IT LIZZ. AND Y'ALL BUY THIS CD!
336674,2,A phenomenal dark comedy!,"For fans of the Coen brothers, David Mamet, anything satirical yet moving. A political fairy tale, a modern ""Wizard of Oz."""
336678,2,"Half good, half bad","Two of the movies on Volume 5 make the set worth the purchase, the other two I probably won't watch again. Boggy Creek II and Time Chasers were non-stop laughs, and probably both will end up being in my top 15 MST 3k when I've watched them all. Merlins Shop and The Touch of Satan just weren't that good. A few moments of laughs here and there but really neither movie is worth to sit through again, because if there isn't enough funny spots from the guys the movies can't carry it."
336724,2,The King's General,"I wasn't sure what to expect when I started this but I was more than pleasantly surprised. Du Maurier brings the past vividly to life and spins a rather downbeat tale of those caught in terrible times. This is not a depressing read however, instead a more honest, believable one. Du Maurier also has a fine heroine in Hope, a woman who more than most has to use her brains to survive. Recommended."
336879,2,What Does A Really Creative Plot + Great Writing Equal?,"The Poet! This book was really fun. While I am a fan of Connelly's Harry Bosch series, I was still able to fall for Jack McEvoy. I thought that Connelly's premise was very creative and great for bibliophiles.The killer uses Poe's literary works as a basis for his murders. What a fabulous way for Connelly to merge his genius with the brilliance of Poe - one of the genre's greats.I just could not put this one down. I found myself reading under the covers with my book light. A fun vacation from reality."
336913,2,Happy Husband,My husband loves the chicken wings the fryer makes. I bought another one for my son becuase he missed Buffalo style wings from NY. I told him these were as good as the wings from NY.
336921,2,Discipline is Teaching,"This book has a lot of good information. It has helped me to redefine what discipline is. As it says in the Introduction, ""Discipline is Teaching""This is the theme that runs through the book, and it is mentioned many times, but the book does not come out and hit you with it. I had to extract this most important general lesson through a lot of contemplation while reading.Many times throughout the book, I crossed out the word ""Discipline"" and wrote ""lesson"" or ""teaching"" and it makes much more sense that way.What are the lessons? We are teaching children a system of fair rules and the positive and negative consequences for following them or not. This leads to self-control, self-regulation. Self-discipline is the goal of discipline.This book challenges us:""To raise a morally developing, emotionally competent child will ultimately be more rewarding than simply an obedient one."""
336939,2,haunting,"this book shook me up for so long, then i read ""deep end of the ocean"" and was so disappointed in that being the oprah pick, and a disturbing and moving book like ""stolen child"" got overlooked. ""deep end"" i couldn't wait to get through it, it was awful. ""stolen child"" was so tense and disturbing, a great read. one i think about years later."
337095,2,Great trap.,"We had squirrels chewing window sills bird houses and just being a pain in the neck. I caught and released twenty two of them and let them go out in the country and now life is good (:Havahart 1025 Live Animal Two-Door Squirrel, Chipmunk, Rat, and Weasel Cage Trap"
337119,2,Favourite of Milletts 3 Holmes so far,I've read all three of Milletts Sherlock in Minnesota and this one was my favourite so far. I enjoy the interface of the refined Victorian detective with the quarks and characters of Minnesota. His stories have become progressively more fun to read. I really enjoy the addition of Rafferty to our crime fighting team.
337126,2,"An excellent read; crisp, informative and enjoyable.","""A Hard Chance"" was a great read. It put me there, aboard the boats that took a terrific pounding in Bass Strait during the Sydney to Hobart ocean race. If you enjoyed Sebasatian Junger's ""The Perfect Storm,"" you'll love Kim Leighton's ""A Hard Chance."""
337138,2,2 1/2 Year Old loves it!,"My son received this DVD yesterday and immediately asked to see it again right after it finished. The music is down-home wholesome and there's lots of footage of his favorites: excavators, gators, and old John Deer tractors."
337178,2,Fantastic underwear,I am very picky because I have super sensitive skin and these really are barely there! Love them and need to order a bunch more.
337179,2,Love all her ballads,"I love all her ballads. They are all good. Clearly she has the voice and all the chops.WIth the slow and jazzy numbers, she is in her elements and at her souldering best. Her smoky voice is defintiely her strength and is showed off best in the ballads.Remove the R&B; numbers and replace with more of the same and this would be a perfect album.Thank goodness I was able to reburn it to make it perfect."
337299,2,Not for everyone - not to be missed,"Fat Pizza is a politically incorrect absolutelly hilarous slice of modern day Australian humour. It is quite foreign to the American style but then so was Benny Hill and Monty Python in days gone by. If you can drag your prejudices past seemingly broad jokes it is full of life and joy and wit. It is destined to sink like a stone as a fish out of water - but its well worth a look if you have an open mind, a sense of curiousity, an innocent sense of humour, and a spare slice of cash."
337309,2,Good for the price,"Nice features, good quality, nice functionality w/ remote. No case which is a negative, and battery life is shorter than expected. Can't watch and charge at the same time. Picture quality and sound is good. Had trouble running a DVD on the second use, and then realized it wasn't spinning correctly because there wasn't enough battery left. After full charge, DVD ran smoothly."
337321,2,I Gotta Go is GREAT!,"I saw these I Gotta Go potty training reviews and had to go buy one for my son. I LOVE this DVD! The concept is great. I never thought children (and parents!) could have fun while potty training. There is no stress for my son or us.He does not want to wear diapers anymore. The songs are so cute, we all sing them.I am glad we bought the DVD, the tape would have been worn out by now! I recommend it to anyone I know who is potty training their children!"
337347,2,The wii is a blast!!!!!,The wii is a blast for the whole family & will keep you entertained for hours.
337352,2,Great,"I am enjoying the Wii. I am having fun with the family and over all this system is the better system for young kids. Not many violent games for this system, which I think is great. Thank you."
337380,2,Great Gift,I ordered this product as a gift for my friend as she loves this scent and they dont sell it in stores anymore. Item arrive quickly and my friend was very pleased.
337409,2,Up from Anonymity: A True Masterwork! (by Devone Tucker),"For the past few decades, right-leaning minorities have beensubjected to de facto censorship, as a result of a media culture thathas marginalized them just as effectively as - if not more so than - they have silencened their white conservative brethren. Now, via Stan Faryna's groundbreaking book, those conservative minorities who have heretofore escaped media attention will rise up from anonymity and take their rightful place as shapers of American political debate. A wonderful vindication of the efforts of Booker T. Washington, George Schulyer and all of the valiant conservative minorities who ""paved the way"" for our current recognition."
337411,2,Great Show,I watch this show Saturday Mornings On Channel6. I saw most of the Garfield And Friends Episodes. I figured this girl likes it who sang the song. The Episode of Garfield going to Hollywood was one of the worse episodes.
337484,2,A six star machine.,"Nothing exciting, but its small, cheap, extremely powerful, easy to empty the permanent dust filter, no bags to buy.You can optionally wash the dust filter (cloth) under a faucet and let stand for a day to dry if it ever gets really dirty. Given that, it should last forever.The cord winds around the handle and then the vacuum and all accessories fit into the foam + cardboard box.Yep the attachments can come off temporarily if you really use forceful cleaning, but easy does it is the cure.And their online site sells a replacement attachment set if your kids lose them!"
337517,2,Fantastic! Life-affirming!,"I loved this book. Yes, it is on the hippy side of things; yes, the photos look kind of funny; and yes, the language can sound kind of silly. However, I've never read such a beautiful and spiritual description of childbirth. The mindset descriped in this book is wonderful, and it also contains lots of very valuable information as well. I just adore it! I'll be reading it again and again. Wonderful book!"
337632,2,A good read - make your read the whole trilogy,"Celia Rees is one mf my favourite authors and I believe this book is a godd example of her talent. If you read this book you HAVE to read the next 2. The story did remind me a little of the lord of the rings, and harry potter, maybe it was just me????!!! But if you feel like buying a Celia Rees book, or are just after a good read, definately consider this!"
337656,2,Sommervilles always marry for love...,"Gareth Sommerville, heir to the Earl of Winchester, has had a great mistrust of women ever since the betrayal of his late wife. Now determined to marry only for duty, Gareth asks his father to choose a wife for him while he goes to visit one of their vassals. Upon arriving at his destination, he disguises himself as a lowly knight in order to root out those responsible for ambushing him. Gareth is an adequate warrior & the main caretaker/farmer among his brothers. However, he must use all his skill & cunning to win against the Harcourts' counterfeit conspiracy.I'm usually a bit leery of plots that have the 'difference in station' theme, but this one wasn't that much of a problem here because again, we find the Harcourts busy plotting their intrigues. What really endeared Ari to me was her tendency to put her foot in her mouth at the worst possible time. It added a very nice touch to their poignant love story."
337727,2,"Great price, great quality",This watch strap looks like it could cost $40 easily and I bought it for under $6. It arrived quickly and looks fantastic. I had an Orvis watch and the strap that came with it was too long for my wrist. I had it on the last notch and it was still loose. I ordered this one as a replacement. A. It was cheap. B. It looks great. C. It fits great. I have small wrists and I wear it on the third to last notch.
337808,2,It's a Winner!,"When I first this CD there were two songs that immediately impressed me, ""Care For You"", and ""Reach You"". After playing these two songs several times, I eventually let the others play. Before I knew it, I found more favorites like, ""It Is What It Is"" (love that opening bass line), Sooner, and ""Midnight Rush"". Now that this monster has been in constant rotation for the past week... YES! It's a definite WINNER!"
337885,2,A terrific evening of great singing and banter,"I happened across Faith Prince while watching the Broadway Ladies DVD - she sang, what I understand now is her ""signature"" song - ""Adelaide's Lament"" from Guys and Dolls. I also have the CD from Guys and Dolls and hadn't even realized, when I listened, that it was Faith Prince. This recording is her ""virgin"" debut in the cabaret mode - and she is just exceptional! I have always been a fan of the musical ""On a clear day you can see forever"" and Ms. Prince breathes renewed life into one of my favorite Broadway songs from that show, but really from all shows ever ""What did I have that I don't have."" Her style of singing this song is somwhat reminiscent of Barbara Harris, but she brings to it her wonderfully unique lilt, humor and passion. Her banter with the audience is upbeat, humorous, self effacing, and great fun. I strongly recommend this marvelous CD to all who enjoy live concert music performed by a magnificent professional singer."
337888,2,another great trip,"I have some of their other DVD's, & this is just as good. They show pyramids, the nile, mummies, temples, wow, so much huge amazing relics! What makes it really unique is they show the bad stuff too like people always trying to sell them stuff & how hot it gets. If you want to go to Egypt, you should learn these things first. It has cool music too, all moody & mystical, totally fits w/the temples & desert."
337916,2,Everyone should see this,"This documentary does a great job conveying a truly bizarre and outrageous (and still ongoing) situation that shows how easily people can be persecuted in the hysteria and stubbornness surrounding the war on terror. It does an equally good job of telling the story of the personal tragedy of these inspiring artists and activists; and showcasing the creative, hard-hitting work of the CAE. The story and its chilling political implications have really stuck with me; I've recommended it to many people."
337933,2,The best dub you can find,"Full of amazing electronic reggae beats, sometimes dark, this will make you high without the need of taking any substance!"
337953,2,"A great purchase, but at what cost?","I noticed a dramatic increase in my reflexes and overall agility when I first wore this headband. That said, I worry that this headband might be too powerful for me, and might have been cursed. Since the headband's arrival there has been a dramatic increase in the amount of spiders in my room. Overall, I'd say it was totally worth it."
338029,2,This is a book that makes you think.,"After reading this book, I realized how truly blessed I am. My problems are so minor compared to theirs. It also helps you to understand the suffering of the Indigenous persons both in Guatemala and in other countries throughout Latin America. I highly recommend this book to anyone who cares about the world around them."
338158,2,valuable research,"Yes, it's true. The mechanical errors in this book were heinous, but the information is beyond noteworthy. I had no trouble understanding the writing, and making the distinction between fact and opinion is hardly a bewildering task as some would have you believe. You simply can't get this information anywhere else, and the man knows his stuff. I highly recommend this text as a valuable research tool on the subject of the Manson family. It's simply fascinating."
338256,2,SEXCELLENT,"JOEY LAWRENCE IS GOD'S GIFT TO POP MUSIC!!!!! REISSUE ""JOEY LAWRENCE"" the self entitled album. THANK YOU."
338260,2,Great read!,Carl Hiassen has never let me down with his books. Read pretty much every book he's written and loved them all!
338320,2,Love Phillipa Gregory!,"So far, all of Philippa Gregory's books are great reading and informative. Even though they are novels, there is alot of Regency English history in them,which has always fascinated and interested me. Her story's remind me so much of Victoria Holt books!"
338401,2,"Set is Great, Return is Not","This cookware set is very good. It is easy to clean, easy to cook with. Don't recommend putting it in the dishwasher. (Mom always told me to hand wash pots and pans and I griped about it for years ... but hers have endured at least 45!) Have had no problems with it. However, when we received the set, the 6-quart stock pot was warped and the lid wouldn't fit. You can't just return one thing - you have to return the entire thing through Amazon. Didn't find that out until after the shipping label had been printed and it was packed up and ready to go. By the time I received a response from Amazon telling me everything had to be returned, everything else had been washed and put away. Just keep that in mind!"
338446,2,Good Cover,"I bought the Tile Table Cover from Amazon for my glass top patio table which always gets extremely dusty in Arizona even though the table is under a covered patio.It was very time consuming to clean the glass top table with windex so I bought the Versuvious cover which now covers the glass & when I want to use the table, I will just remove it & it will not be that difficult to do a quick once over on the glass.The colors are beautiful in black, cream & shades of brown & go very well with my black & copper chair seats & outdoor rug.Great idea!"
338448,2,Works very well,"like the product, does what it's suppose to do, can get a little messy with overspray, that is why i did not give it 5 stars...other than that small issue, I am happy with this item."
338505,2,It's smaller than my cell phone,"I absolutely have fell in love with this machine, and I have been through many digital cameras. It takes amazing pictures in the dark, fires up fast, and doesn't take long between pictures. I got tired of taking photos of my kids soccer games, and by the time my fuji finally took the picture, the kids were long gone. I have no regrets, well worth it."
338579,2,Good Product,This is my daughters 2nd CHI. Her first finally gave out after 4 years of continuous use. She says this one is even better than her first.
338788,2,Pretty good set,"4 stars should say it all. Not a bad set at all, especially after a few disappointments like Digital/Black, and Experience 2002. Very nice selection of tracks, especially on CD #1. Mixing as always very precise. Second CD deserves a 3 star rating, as it gets a bit boring and heavy at the end. Overall a very decent compilation. Don't expect to be blown away by it, but nevertheless very enjoyable experience overall."
338793,2,Awesome book. fun ideas,This book has so many wonderful ideas for games. Loved it and would highly recommend it
338804,2,Photographer Josh,I loved this book. It is close to the top of my favorite vampire books. Dracula and Salem's lot are the only two above it. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves vampires or Gothic lit.
338862,2,Fast - Effective - Efficient Help for What Ails You,"When I was sick with viral meningitis, my sister Chris helped me to recover, and offered information from this mighty little book. Sometimes, simple rememdies is all one needs instead of the expensive and sometimes hazardous prescriptions that are so often given. Now I am sharing and passing on information from my own copy of this great edition to my kitchen cookbooks and nursing manuals!"
338867,2,"No, it isn't as bad as the other guy says!","One day I decided I wanted to learn Russian. No, seriously. And I was at the bookstore, and completely on a whim I bought this book. Seriously? Yup. And so far it's been GREAT. I just recommend that you really take the time to try out each activity, and memorise the vocabulary. Yes, it's a little pricey for such a slim volume. But it works like gangbusters. (Heh. ""Gangbusters."") I can only devote an hour a day, at most, while reading on my lunch hour, with no homework time either because frankly when I get home I'm beat. And I'm already fluently reading the language. Okay, I don't know what the words actually MEAN yet, but it's a start! So I recommend this as a great way to get over our ""english"" letters, and move your brain into Cyrillic Gear."
338872,2,I'm a Believer,"I got turned onto Rhett Miller from Paste magazine. Included a disc featuring a song from this album. I bought ""Instigator"" first and it took a few listens, but it grew on me with many great songs on it. Bought ""Believer"" and feel it's equally as great if not better with some more upbeat music jangles. Still shares the same haunting lyrics about love, life and the feelings once expressed and so on. Really great CD and unlike Instigator, I found myself listening to Believer and singing out loud."
338890,2,An Awesome Musical Collection,"This CD is my all time favorite collection of classical music and wedding music. I myself am only 21 but I have played the violin for 17 years and am simply blown away by the sound quality and the beauty each song possesses. My favorites are Canon in D and Ave Maria, and I can not help but close my eyes and simply get lost in this music."
338905,2,Star Wars action figure review,I'd purchased this figure because I wanted to use it for a diorama. I really like the pose & I like the base too.
338920,2,At least we have it in the catalog...,"The oratorio itself is quite good, as is almost everything Porpora wrote. The singers, unfortunately, do not measure up to the quality of the music they are performing. So, five star oratorio, two star cast... Good orchestra and direction."
338938,2,A MUST READ,The Thin Pink Line AND Crossing the Line are both MUST READ books. They are absolutly hilarious and keep you on the edge of you seat wondering what Jane Taylor will do next in her crazy nutty life. If you are in the mood for a funny and heart warming story then pick these two books. Lets all hope that there is more of this series to come!!!!!
338951,2,So crazy it might be true.,"Some of the things in this book are hard to believe, others seem plausible. It all sounds like fantasy but take a minute and think, we know next to nothing about our pasts and our origins. So who is to say what is true and what isnt."
338970,2,good,this was given to my daughter as a gift. She plays this game for hours at a time. She appears to enjoy this game.
338984,2,science fiction,This is written in the mode of J R Tolkien and is a great and easy to read novel. It was hard to put down. It was written as a story teller of old would have told it.
339027,2,Gloria's the best,I love Gloria any way but this is one of her better CDs. I am glad I added it to my collection.
339157,2,loved this book,"I read this book and throroughly enjoyed it. It's an entertaining read and it's not all about zombies. It's more about humans after zombies arrive. Politics, economy, human experience, etc. It's just something you should read. Especially if you are a fan of AMC's Walking Dead."
339168,2,Best of the bunch,"In the growing sub-genre of zombie fiction, Brooks work stands out. It is the best of the lot. It is gritty and real and smacks with the authenticity of the words of people who have been to hell and back.If you read only one ""zombie book"", you could do much worse than pick this one."
339171,2,Deserves a Spot on Your Top 5 List,"World War Z is a work of fiction which records the stories of survivors of the zombie apocalypse from all over the world, and from all walks of life. Some from mothers and sons, others from soldiers and government officials. This book is told in an interview-style narrative. The author acts as interviewer, traveling around the world, and seeking answers about the virus. He inquires into why and how the virus was developed, and how far in advanced the government knew about it. This book quickly gained a spot on my top 5 shelf because of the style it is written in. It's completely unique, but also very smart. This isn't another zombie book about a group surviving the apocalypse. This is a great prose on the after effects of war, and human nature. I would recommend this book to zombie enthusiasts and regular folk alike. It's fast paced enough not to lose your attention, and smart enough to get you wrapped up in right away."
339265,2,better than the rest,I have seen much better results with NOW products than other manufacturers and this product included. I buy this regularly.
339417,2,Fun and easy to use.,We grill a lot and this product works great. I can tell a taste difference bc the seasoing is pulled in to the meat.
339484,2,Honest Abe,An excellent look into the life of one of our most trreasured leaders. This is worth your time to read.
339486,2,Better than expected,"Lincoln has been one of my heroes my entire life and I was curious to read this book for a perspective written much closer in time to his life than most things I've read. There were times near the beginning where the author's admiration for Lincoln seemed to destroy any objectivity, but it improved and there were a number of wonderful nuggets along the way including some great quotes that I hadn't seen before.Recommended for anyone who doesn't know Lincoln or is looking to become re-acquainted."
339503,2,"Another Fine Math You've Got Me Into..,.","This is one of the best recreational math books I have ever read. It presents scenarios from real life that lead to real math. Humor abounds in the stories but deep mathematical concepts abond in the solutions. I use this book as a required text for a mathematics course for future teachers. Hopefully, they too can make mathematics as much fun as Mr. Stewart."
339506,2,It continued my journey,It continued my journey into learning about the Khazarian royalty that I could be descended from.
339543,2,Heavy and heavy duty.,This hair dryer is big and heavy but thankfully it dries hair pretty quickly and doesn't seem to damage my fine hair like other super hot dryers. I don't have tons of thick hair so it works for me but people with long thick hair would also have tired arms.
339545,2,LOVE my new hair dryer,I absolutely love this hair dryer. Yes as per other reviews it is heavier but it is so fast that I don't have to hold it long so I don't care. It dries my hair in a few minutes and leaves it so soft and straight with absolutely no frizz. I feel like I had it done at a salon. I am very very happy with this purchase.
339600,2,good HD cable,"if u have a HD tv this will be your best choice for ur wii. i really hope wii can support 720p that will be more fun..well, this is the best cable u can get so far for ur wii."
339665,2,"Review of On My Trail...""",This book is what I was looking for. It has helped me to understand my life better and to make better decisions. It has given me a guideline on how to live a decent life and and I am a better person for it. The author writes in a way that I can relate to and that made it easier to apply these insights to my own life. This book has changed my life and the way I live it.
339801,2,In Broad Daylight,"Well written, a few details in there about what he did with his wives I could've done without, but a good book."
339807,2,My new favorite,I'm a high school teacher and I used these for all of my correcting. I think they're great. I love the variety of colors and I think they last longer than other pens I have used.
339824,2,Vanthi is hot.,"Vandi is the best and hottest female greek singer, and this CD is great! In my opinion Vandi has surpassed Vissi. Vissi is now second best. I love this CD."
339858,2,"Again, quality TV from the 60's / 70's","This is just a good series.Bill Cosby is just very funny, both with one liners and his physical comedy in this series.I'm not sure if I'm biased, because I grew up with television that moved at this pace, with a story line, and a moral. It's just quality TV. It has a real ""L.A."" feel to it, with a lot of exterior scenes also.The value for this 4 disc set, and 26 episodes is a good deal, and would also make a great gift for anyone interested in this period of television history."
339900,2,Good replacement battery,"Works just like the original battery in my APC BackUPS RS 800!The hardest part about installing this replacement battery was getting the battery cover off and on the bottom of the unit without disconnecting any cords. (It wasn't really that difficult.)I was able to hot-swap the battery without disconnecting anything (even left the UPS plugged into the wall outlet). Although, I did turn off my computer first - just in case. :)There was no return label to ship it back for recycling - they discontinued that process. But my local Staples store took the old battery without question."
339939,2,When Zachary Beaver Came to Town,"I never read a book by Kimberly Willis Holt before, but I Thought it was a good book. It was also about one of his summers in a part of Texas. Then Zachary Beaver Comes to twon and changes the towns spirit. I liked that it told about Toby's life and what it was like at his time. What I didn't like was when Zachary Beaver had to face the law of not bing supervised. Because he then he would have to go to Juvi or a foster home.My favorite character was Toby, because he was the type of shy kid with adventures. On page 218 it really tells how much he loves Scarlett.It was a good book and tells about it. One qeustion I had asked was: If you were Toby what would you do instead? It relates to me in different parts of my life. Because I like blonds."
339975,2,Great for smaller hands,"I have used Fiskars for many years for several reasons: They are made in Finland, not China where so many tools are made. I particularly like the PowerGear feature - the rotating lower handle. This order was the first I have made for the 7937, which is a better fit for me than the 7936 because I have smaller hands, and significant arthritis. Replacement blades are available."
339988,2,Mostly satisfied,This product was delivered in a timely manner. My whole family enjoy this product - both taste and texture are very good. The only reason I have not given the hot dog buns 5 stars is that one pack has gone mouldy - several months prior to the exparation date and within a sealed pack! A review of packaging perhaps?
340035,2,A HUI HOU SELENA,"Amor Prohibido is another great cd that Selena made for all of us to hear. Whats good about this cd, is that you can easily sing along with Selena and that the song keep you into the grove of the cumbia. So I recomend this cd to anyone who's reading this right now. We love you Selena and we miss you. ""Selena is da bomb"""
340106,2,The Body Electric,"This is an amazing book. It's required reading. After watching a friends severed fingertip grow back (No it wasn't sewn on, it literally grew back with nail and all), this book goes right along with what I've seen with my own eyes."
340204,2,For when love makes you sick to your stomache,"when you are on the verge of either crying or screaming, but you are not sure which one, and you cannot express with words how upset you are...this album will be the sweetest thing you have ever heard, and you will almost want to keep your broken heart simply because the beauty of this album turns the suffering into beautythe passion alone makes this album worth buyingbut to top it off, they express their passion perfectly with a new, breathtaking album that has stong infulences in hardcore punk and a unique guitar style that is a pleasure to listen tothis album thrives with its ability to elicit strong sentimental value, and almost impossible feat that every musician wished they could accomplishit is similar to being really thirsty and drinking a nice cold glass of waterit is also very energetic and your sorrows seem to drownd out in the sea of musical intensity Fear Before the March of Flames have created in this albumit is awesome"
340274,2,DO NOT LISTEN TO THE HATERS,"People who are in love with this movie are in love with their purchase.People who are trying to find trivial things to complain about are the ones who are dying for special features.20 bucks for both a bluray and dvd, seriously? buy this now."
340315,2,Could not put it down!,"Started this book with doubts feeling it might have too much medical detail - there was just enough, and I felt close to the midwife through her daily log book - couldn't guess the outcome! Excellent book!!"
340378,2,Great product,"I needed a cheap, reliable coffee maker and this was just the fit. I was a bit scared of breaking it the first time I tried to make coffee due to all the reviews of people previously doing so, but the press is quite sturdy (still, it is made out of glass after all and you should be careful with it). The beaker is removable from the stainless steel stand, so handwashing it is very easy."
340444,2,Papo figures are great!,"Papo makes the best 90mm painted PVC figurines and the Cannon Pirate is a prime example of this toy company's excellent products. Far superior to Schleich or Bullyland, Papo figures exude action as well as personality. One of several fantasy pirate figures, this cannon-carrying bucanneer is loaded with detail. He sports a tricorn hat with skull emblem, a flowing red beard, a braided pigtail tied in a bow, and his powerfull arms and hands support a bronze cannon on his left shoulder. Mysterious tattoos cover his torso and arms and a haversack bulging with cannonballs hangs on one hip. It looks as if he is either carrying a cannon barrel onto a pirate ship or getting readying to fire it like a shoulder weapon. Either way he's ready to take on the enemy be they Papo royal sailors or other Papo pirates."
340457,2,terrific bargain,"considering the price of $50.00.this is a slam dunk steal.i know several customers had collimation problems,but i think that had to do with rough handling on the shippers part.my bino's came in perfect ready to go condition. the images were very clear,right out to the edges.my guess would be that you'd have to spend at least 2 io 3x as much for a better pair."
340589,2,Great product!,"Received on time, packaging was okay, would like to have had it packaged with some kind of wrapping on it but it came in fine with the tags on it! I was giving it as a gift and I did not want it to look as if it was not new but the tags were fine to show that! These mugs are great and keep beverages hot for a long time as well as cold! Great gift ideas!"
340605,2,Great Mug,"Cover fits good so it won't leak. Only thing about it, can warm up the fluid in the Microwave and can't use it on a cup warmer due to the rubber bottom. For traveling, its great."
340648,2,Beautiful Doll,"My mother-in-law purchased this for my daughter's 7th birthday. The reason she purchased this doll is that my daughter's name is Mattie(spelled the same way) Which we just loved the idea. Anyway, when I opened the box, I could not believe how beautiful this doll actually was. Simply GORGEOUS! Along with the baby powder smell,& adorable outfit she was beautiful, my daughter fell in love with the doll instantly. I did not want her to play with the doll, I wanted to put it back for her when she gets older, therefore I had to purchase another. Absolutley beautiful doll. Can't go wrong!"
340806,2,Great for the beginner!,As a complete novice to quilting I'm finding this book to be a great reference and learning tool. It talks in normal language and is easily understandable. The pictures and explanations make you feel as if you can accomplish and learning this daunting hobby! I'm glad I bought it!
340820,2,"Great quality, performance and price!","Why buy another brand? Great quality, performance and price...your wine will endure...with lasting value...easy to clean, use...what's not to love?"
340860,2,Just someone else who found them with Guster and John Mayer,"This is truly a great folk/blues rock album. Seeing them in concert was amazing. They showed up the pompous John Mayer and gave Guster a run for their money. Although, all music is better live, you should still give this album a listen, it's worth at least three."
340874,2,fabulous!,I love these glasses!Perfect size for a narrow women's faceI'm getting 3 pairs. Two already in two colors.Sweet.
340918,2,Too many misconceptions,"I have read the reviews posted about this book, they unfortunately do not do it justice. The introductions give the reader tremendous insight into the life and career of Patti Smith, as well as the importance that her work has for so many people. I personally found the photographs to be excellent. Being in black and white has allowed the pictures to be stripped down to their most basic and primative state, which is emotion. These photographs by Stipe are much like the lyrics to REM's songs. They are simple yet unspecific in nature, it is left up to the reader (or listener) to interpret them in his or her own way. So ultimately the majority of the photo's in the book are left for you to ponder into the life of Patti Smith on tour. After all this is not a ""where's Waldo"" children's book, it is a book of art done by an exceptionally talented artist, covering a very complicated and influential female artist in her tour element."
340932,2,"Civil War in El Salvador, reflections of a Brooklyn shipwrec","El Salvador's recent history, their civil war, should not fade away quite so quickly. It was evil. This book reflects on it through a character who is original, believable, and sorrowful. Post traumatic stress sliced open down to the exact scenes he is recalling as he steals food for the conned crew of central americans stuck on a boat that can't leave the Brooklyn Harbor. Stalled dreams, pushed off the track by war. Read it. Supposedly, it really happened. Came from a newspaper article Goldman saw. He explains it in the epilogue."
340945,2,Love It,Given as a gift to my Nephew. He loves all of the videos that are from Stomp the Yard. Will make more purchases.
340948,2,Sturdy!,"I just received these for my 4-year grandson. They are so much sturdier than the ones that come in the track kits - the base is big and solid, and they attach by fitting a peg into a hole, so they don't wobble or fall over. I'm probably going to be ordering more soon, but for now, there are some amazing multi-level track formations being built!"
340998,2,Wonderful!,"This is an amazing, wonderful book. Filled with just enough help that you will actually make something amazing using its techniques. Yes, there are projects complete with patterns, but there are also enough examples of what the author's students have done in her workshops that you are free to do just about anything with the patterns. Like I said, just enough help.She also explains how to figure out patterns of your own. The ones she gives you are fish, but if you don't like fish, there is an explanation of how to take a large photo and create something totally different using the same techniques. And finally, she shares the process for one of her large projects so you have an idea of where this method can go.If you are ready to take steps out of traditional piecing and applique and what to do something wild, this will help you take those first steps. I've got a couple of things I need to get through before I work on my first fish, but I WILL be working on one."
341020,2,Gets the job done,"I don't think there is a product available that completely eliminates the need to shovel snow, but this product makes shoveling less back breaking. I applied Bare Ground after I shovelled my driveway and sidewalk and it helped to prevent the additional snowfall from sticking to the ground. Round 2 of shoveling went much smoother and quicker. Be careful if you are applying it when the temperature is above freezing - the sprayed area could become slippery."
341045,2,Fifty Hikes in Northern Maine,"My family and I used this book for years. We loved hiking in Maine and glad to see people believe in ""North of Portland"". A great family book!"
341048,2,elegant Looking Bench,"The bench arrived in a timely manner and was in good condition.However, the material has a tendency to stretch and as a result, there are small wrinkles on the bench seat. Considering the price paid for the bench, this is not a major issue."
341103,2,Best fushion since the 70's,"Front Page in my opinion is really,really good. Putting these three guys together was a good idea. Listening to Dominque De Pizzia is a real pleasure. The Jaco Pastorious influence is more then felt but it is totally in a good way, who doen't like Jaco? He also uses some really cool guitar techniques like a classical guitarist. Bireli the guitarist is awesome! Dennis Chambers needs no hype he's the man. I think this album combines elements of weather report and later John McLaughlin with alot of super fast unison guitar and bass passages. My favorite song on the record is The Eyes of Chirst. The sound the bassist gets on this cut is sheer beauty it also has a nice melody. You will find plenty of chops busting here. Take my advice buy this record!"
341121,2,Great series! Highly recommend!!,"I have read all three of these pretty much back to back and enjoyed them all. I love the honesty of the writing, the sense of the times and places, the way the characters are created and the style of plot suspense build-up unusual in this genre of literature."
341133,2,Bought it as a gift for someone but it made me come back to sewing,I bought this book as a gift for my cousin. She is younger than me and wanted to learn to sew. I got this book on recommendation from a couple of my girlfriends. I began to look through it before wrapping it. This book made things very easy. I have fell back in love with sewing again.Now I have one also.
341152,2,Love these!,"What can I say? I love these glasses. Perfect size and glass is not to thick and not to thin. I have a way of breaking wine glasses over a period of time and when I do, I will definitely purchase more of these."
341212,2,Works well,It worked really well. The internal plastic liner was a pice of junk.I just put my passport in a small ziplock bag and that worked really well.
341217,2,Chicago blues to bend to....,"Exactly as titled! Backing tracks to play over... nicely done with a great booklet explaining suggestion as to which parts of the scales to use with each track and progressions through the track... You will learn from this book and even enjoy just playing to the songs if you already think you got your scales down pat...covers a variety of beats per minute and scales, great improvisation tool. Also includes the chords so you can eventually just team up with friends and play the whole song without the backing tracks.. I now own six from this series and they all are very well done and worth every penny."
341266,2,Murder and the science of forensic detection,"Everyone who's watched an episode (or two) of one of the ""CSI"" franchises can probably do armchair forensic work, but for many people it's how they pay their bills. There are sixteen cases in this book, but names and places have been altered; however, the forensic details of each case are largely intact. There are a few pages of photos, most of which are far tamer than what's seen on an average ""CSI"" episode. I work with pathologists, so forensic science interests me but if you're really looking for true crime fiction (as some other reviewers apparently were), stick to Ann Rule's books."
341268,2,"It Passes the ""Late-Night Start"" Test!","I started this book in bed, late at night, and had to force myself to stop reading, hours later. It's fast-paced, and I enjoyed all the inside-Washington, D.C., touches. The book jacket says that Davis was an Air Force major, and planned U-2 surveillance missions, so it makes me wonder how much of this ""fiction"" might be based on things he's seen?"
341325,2,Very Good,"Its a very useful toy for your kids. They are going to like it. Dont think about it, just buy it."
341455,2,"Finally, an easy to understand thorough resouce for woman with vaginal health issues","After 13 visits in 2 years to the Ob/Gyn and thinking I had yeast infections that couldn't be cured, this book was recommended to me by a PA OB/GYN friend. Wow, what a differnce this made. Well, needless to say I found out I don't have a problem with yeast and I was able to find a doctor to help me with a very solvable problem. Reading the V book educated me so that I knew what questions to ask and what information to have to help a doctor diagnose my problems. I also learned that my doctor did what many do, no culturing of yeast, but prescribe medication. I don't mean this to bash the doctor but rather to share how uninfrmed I was and how empowered I am now. The book is well written, easy to read and thorough. READ this book if you are a women stuggling with your own vaginal health issues. Give this book to any woman you love."
341599,2,Great Book,"I think this book is wonderful. It includes biomedical (regular Medical Doctor) advice, home remedies, and homeopathic remedies, as well as herbal and gemotherapy remedies. The author is trained in biomedicine as well as the other types of medicine that she discusses here. I've used her alternative (alternative to i.e., tylenol) ideas, some with great success! If I had to choose one baby book to have on my shelf, this would be IT!"
341602,2,Reggae 2007,"Unfortunately, it was almost impossible to rate this item, because everytime you order it from Amazon or a seller on Amazon, you are sent Reggae Gold 2007 instead.There are 2 different CDs, yet no one looks closely enough at the titles to make the distinction. After months of receiving and returning the wrong CD, they eventually sent the right one and it was certainly worth the wait. No one ever likes all of the songs on one CD but overall a good line up of songs."
341615,2,Best kept secret,NasalCrom is the best kept secret for relieving nasal stuffiness and nasal allergy symptoms. Think of it as prescription quality without any unwanted side effects. Great for someone with high blood pressure too. Well worth the value price available here. Go for the larger size if you can.
341634,2,Daughters favorite from the past,This show use to be my daughters favorite. Now that she has her own daughter I bought this DVD for them to enjoy together. It was a surprise to her I was able to find it and she said it was as good as she remembered it to be.
341690,2,Ironclads,"Although it is in VHS format, the movie is of fine quality. For Civil War buffs, this is one to have in your collection."
341738,2,Great litter pan for rabbits,"I had been using a regular grocery store cat litter box and had to put cardboard walls around it for overflow. Pellets dropping out are one thing, but rabbits also have a tendency to back too far up when urinating too. This litter box has stopped all of that. Yes, there will always be some tracking when they hop out and because rabbits just naturally can't help it sometimes.The front is low enough that the rabbit can easily sit in the litter box while eating from even a small dish.My rabbits did still use their old one more often which I left side-by-side during the transition, but once I took the old one away they have no problem using it exclusively.4 stars is because while it works, I don't see anything really exceptional about it. I also wish you could choose a color, but that is not a knock on the product itself."
341748,2,Awesome sound for an awesome price!,"I got these for my wife as a Christmas gift, and they work very well. I was concerned about the speakers not having a grill over the front, but they are not delicate little pieces of paper.The sound quality is excellent, and the remote control works very well, complete with a line-in jack (so you can plug in your iPod without having to plug something in to the computer) and headphone jack."
341812,2,Awesome collection,"I bought this set because I wasn't able to take my family to see the concert & thought it would be something they would enjoy. It was a Christmas gift to my father and he loved it, the DVD included it a great touch and was awesome since we missed out on the concert. Everyone loved it so much that even a friend who came to visit from Germany had to order a copy!"
341815,2,A good talking-to from your screwed-up but cool uncle,"You can't manufacture the kind of honesty and soulfulness that pours out of Steve Earle's throat. He's definitely the real thing, with the courage to say when and where he screwed up. Like all great artists, he's a man of contradictions, too. Shane MacGowan and Paul Westerberg are the only other songwriters who match his alternating hardness and softness. This album is a cautionary but never preachy look at the life of an outlaw. You sense the pull of that life and you hear about the pain. Earle doesn't tell you to avoid it, he just says, ""Hey, do what you want but here's what happened to me""."
341856,2,Best skatevideo ever!,OMG this video is out of fricken control buy it right now don't waste your time reading the reviews buy it right this second!
341999,2,It makes me look classy!,"Thank you for the fast shipping.I like the watch every much. The leather straps look better than I thought. I know now I made the right decision to buy this one after a long research.Well, I have a question. What are Movt: Philippines and Strap: China? It was made in Philippines?"
342005,2,Sounds great if you like bass.,"Got it, works great, no problems at all. The bass IS way too loud. If you don't love bass, do not get this item. I did turn the volume down all the way and that helps. Grenades and the like sound awesome, the surround works great too, even inside the headphones. Other reviewers who heard a buzzing noise, most likely have grounding issues with their home wiring (lack of third prong). I am extermely sensitive to buzzing noises and my headphones were very clean sounding. All that aside, the wires are like an octpus around your lap, get the wireless version if you can afford it."
342025,2,appears to do what it says,"I installed this fan on my flat (slight slope) built up tar roof on my 100 yr old rowhome in DC. It was as easy to install as it says, only about 30 minutes with a rip saw, screw gun, and some adhesive. I did add some additional roof flashing to be safe as my roof not very level. Before install our thermostat on the first floor was set at 74 and the temp in our second floor bedroom was usually around 80. After the install, without changing the thermostat, the temp in our second floor bedroom is usually around 77. Of course, I also had the roof coated with an aluminum reflective paint (as opposed to black tar) so that also had a positive affect. I did get the thermostat for the fan also as I didn't want to climb up on the roof every Spring to turn the fan on and every Fall to turn it off. It runs continuously otherwise."
342101,2,A solid review of some aspects of phonetics,"""Experimental phonetics"", in contrast to ""impressionistic phonetics"", is defined by the author as phonetic research that uses instruments to record, measure and analyze speech events. This is explained in the first chapter, which I found to be one of the more engaging in the book. If you've read other works on general and acoustic phonetics, e.g. Ladefoged's _A Course in Phonetics_ and _Elements of Acoustic Phonetics_, this book will probably be over 80% review. But different presentations of familiar material are often useful for consolidating existing knowledge. And there are new bits here and there, like information on different VOTs for the different stops. Overall, this is a carefully produced, solid work."
342108,2,If you liked Schweinstein...,"If you loved Schweinstein like me then you'll most definitely love the follow-up remix album! I recently picked up the Schweinstein disc and haven't been able to stop listening to it so naturally when I found out about the remix album, I immediately ordered it and had it shipped 2nd day. Strangely enough, the album Schweinstein got mixed reviews by it's listeners. I ponder what exactly those people we're expecting or looking for out of this release. Both are extremely reminiscent of works by KMFDM, Pig, Sow, Schaft and Slick Idiot but with an occasional Eastern twist. A must have for fans of the aforementioned and a real masterpiece in my opinion. Comes highly recommended by me. I simply cannot see how anyone could be disappointed with this."
342163,2,Fantastic Fantasy!,The detail of her writing is fab. The humor is great. The characters are well drawn. I enjoyed this book from the first page.
342182,2,Jason & The Scorchers Best Bootleg you can get!!!,"While the recording quality of this cd varies from bad to acceptable, the charm of the performance is the real deal. But if you are already a fan of this highly underrated group, you know you really dont need hi fidelity to appreciate their power. Get it, enjoy it, and listin to it every once in a while. The recording came directly from what is rated as one of the greatest bootleg perfomances in history, and this recording (directly from the LP) includes scratches and clicks too!! Charming, and worth the price of admission."
342327,2,It works,I ordered two of these and one of them doesn't fully close unless you slightly push it. The other one however came fine. I've never lost my keys since I got this carabiner and it works for hooking other keys on it as well.
342444,2,My German Shepherd loves these.,My German Shepherd loves these balls. We have purchased these for years and has never popped one even though he tests them constantly in his jaw. He usually loses them in the yard and even if they are uncovered months later they are dirty but still durable. I recommend this product for any one with a large dog who loves to play catch and fetch.
342446,2,Fun to watch,"I love it. I think they should have got a better actor for the oldest son. The others in the cast fix the show, it just the actor for the oldest son that throws it off.Mr. Laurie is very funny in this show."
342563,2,Prairie Fever,I am sorry for the delay. I thought I had given a review of this item. If not I found it to be a good item. It was on time and in good shape. I certainly would order from this seller again whenever that seller has an item that I am interested in having. Thanks again for the excellent service and product.
342723,2,Razor MX350,"Bought this for my son's 5th birthday. Small enough for him to get his feet flat on the ground. Realistic throttle, similar to gas powered dirt bikes. Excellent first motorcycle. Speed maxes out at 10-13 mph, but my son doesn't even go full out. He is able to stop or slow down easily, using the left hand brake. Electric motor needs no maintenance, just keep it charged! Motorcycle has NO suspension though. Not a problem for the little ones, unless they hit a pretty big bump straight on....it'll give them a jolt. Haven't had the bike off road yet. Definitely WOULD recommend this bike for beginners. They get to learn the basics of handling, throttle control and braking. All skills they need to move up to larger displacement bikes. Great for building confidence.Don't forget the gear!!! They definitely should have a full face helmet at the least. Hope this helps."
342808,2,Very fun paints,These paints arrived as described and are tons of fun. We use them as spray paints or as regular water color paints. We are going to color bubbles and soap with them too. My 4 year old daughter can spend hours painting coffee filters in all kinds of shapes with these paints and they are so vibrant.
342810,2,Kids love it.,Item is as described. My kids love it. Inflated quickly and still using it. Great for rowing around the pond.
342859,2,Fleetwood Mac Reunion Shows Them Back At The Top Of Their Game,"THE DANCE, Fleetwood Mac's reunion of their classic 70s lineup, features the band at their best since 1982's MIRAGE. The songs are all incredibly performed, even if ""Silver Springs"" as rendered here lacks the holiday-bell piano effects of the studio version (available on THE VERY BEST OF FLEETWOOD MAC) and Lindsey Buckingham's voice has coarsened a bit over time. The difference in the melody of ""The Chain"" is an accommodation to the changes in Buckingham's voice. The fact that the members of this lineup of Fleetwood Mac have supported efforts to free people jailed on false charges in countries not their own makes this CD an essential purchase for both your ears AND your conscience."
342880,2,Water glasses add elegance to your table,"Lovely, classy glasses that have that fine crystal ""ting"". We feel special every time we use these. The style goes well with almost any wine glass you set next to it. AND we put them in the dishwasher with no problem."
342921,2,hernia belt,"the hernia belt does work . I am on my third day but there are adjustments , you will have too address and in my case some major modifications. one of the reviews suggested to buy on the large side and I did . I am 41"" on the fence between med and large so on the recomendation I chose the large. now I am forced to take about 4"" out of the belt"
342934,2,The end of a genre,"I am one of those people who has been watching this one daytime serial almost the entire 40 years. When the powers that be decided to take it off the air, I was devastated. Like mourning the death of a family member. This video helped me remember just what a wonderful escape this show provided to me and a whole generation of women and men."
342968,2,Great!,The victorian/classical style of the music is wonderful. Relaxing and charming. I found it to be very enjoyable.
342980,2,A haunting and beautiful score,"This is one of my favorite James Newton Howard scores along with Wyatt Earp and Waterworld.The seven tracks of score on this CD are really terrific,from slow and relaxing to bold and triumphant.The main theme is superb and all the other tracks are haunting,beautiful and inspiring. The eight songs on the CD are enjoyable but the best of these is ""You didn't have to be so nice"".If you are a fan of the movie or of James Newton Howard,I strongly recommend this CD."
343012,2,Best Flight Sim played,"This is one of the best Flight Sims. It has pretty good graphics except sometimes you see the graphics getting worse the farther you look. I say this is worth the$. It has great aircraft without loading any on but when you try to load third-party aircraft sometimes it makes no sense. I would have done a 5 except for the graphics, how hard it is to load aircraft and this may just be for me but when I'm takink off my plane drifst just enough to make taking off hard th the left. Those are basically my only complaints. I suggest you wait untill November though (this was written in 2006) for the seqquel, it will be called Fight Simulator X. I read it in issue 39 of PC pilot. It looks way improved."
343020,2,Much better than FSX!!,"I have been playing this game for several years now (since it was originally released), and I have enjoyed every minute of it!! Unfortunately, the game CD was damaged, so instead of replacing it, I went out and bought FSX.I found, to my dismay, that FSX won't work on my computer. I have a fairly good (though not great by today's standards) computer: XP-Professional with SP2, Intel Centrino Duo CPU @ 1.73GHz, 1GB of RAM, and 100GB hard drive that is only about 1/3 full. With these specs, FSX doesn't work very well. However, FX2004 works absolutley great!!So I'm simply going to buy another FS2004, and hold on to FSX until I get a substantially better computer. If your computer specs are anything close to what mine are, I recommend you do the same.Make no mistake: FS2004 ROCKS!!!!!!"
343065,2,This stuff is really potent!,"I was looking for something that would last longer than Manic Panic, and I definitely found it! It's been almost a month and this hair color (Atomic Pink) has barely faded. I get compliments on it all the time for how bright and vibrant it is. If you would like to make it last longer, put a lil of the color in your shampoo or conditioner. Also, one bad thing I noticed about this dye was that it does bleed more than Manic Panic. So be prepared for it to end up on your clothes or pillowcase and your shower, lol. It does come out of fabric pretty easily though, so no biggie."
343091,2,Bought as a gift- both recipients love it!,"Great quality, and a really nice set. I got 2 sets as gifts last year- one for my parents and one for my brother. My brother said he uses his all the time and they're a really great set of knives. We have always been pleased with Chicago Cutlery's quality. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to buy this set again!"
343144,2,This book was written in 1947 but the author has a vision for today.,"The Future of Man is an inspiring, dynamic forward thinking collection of essays given at different times to different groups of scientist or other types of groups. This was a mind expanding experience."
343152,2,best product ever for covering scratches,Ihad scratches on my green leather sofa this product covered them
343204,2,Bread Knife,"I am highly satisfied. The knife is well balanced, extremely sharp and well constructed. I might add that it was delivered expeditiously."
343206,2,Wonderful bread knife,Originally purchased this knive for slicing bagels before freezing. Worked great and over 15 years we wore the knife out- literally wore down the serations. Was so pleased to find the exact same knife still being made and available on Amazon! I give this knife the highest possible rating for slicing any type of bread- it is a little long but works great if you have room for it in your kitchen.
343220,2,Love it!,"Bought two of these trays to use with our laptops. The trays are fabulous. The one problem is, sometimes when you slide the tray toward you it stops as though it's hung up on something but it isnt. Just an odd thing. Other than that, they rock!!"
343254,2,Great Toy,"I love having Bristle Blocks in my classroom, it really helps student use their motor skills. This set is great. I really like how it comes in it's own storage container. That is really helpful. I would recommend this to anyone!"
343274,2,You get what you pay for,"If you're looking for inexpensive binoculars, don't complain when they don't work like a $300 pair of binoculars. I got these for the sole purpose of my kids having some to play with when we go camping. For the price, they're GREAT!!! They actually see very well. Even my husband and I use them. I would strongly recommend these to anyone looking for some cheap binoculars."
343279,2,So Many Questions... So Little Time,"This book is great for getting to know someone our just to start a conversation. My boyfriend is across the country for med school, and this book has really helped our long distance relationship."
343292,2,Surprised new owner.,"My wife and inlaws surprised me with this for Christmas. Right out of the box me and my father in-law threw in a less than 1/2"" thick slice of walnut left over from resawing and using the two finished sides. We were able to get a beutiful two sided 1/4"" finish piece. Machine is very quiet. I have a hard time with the 5/65 depth each turn of the handle provides, I have a hard enough time keeping my measurments straight. As most machines offer cutterlocks, and ""no"" snipe, the internal automatic cutterhead makes this planer just that much easier to use. The bigest advantage I see with this planer are the two sided carbide blades similar to hand planers. I hear of people resharpening the high speed steel, but the thought of longer lasting, sharper, and quickly replaceable carbide blades makes this planer stand out. Just think of how much better you carbide tiped table saw blades are. Now off to home depot to find the 2 dolar piece of duct work to use as a dust collector."
343331,2,cane holder,does a decent job but my cane is metal and it slips a lot. I can live with it like it is.
343349,2,Delightful Family Film - Under Appreciated Gem,"A magical toy store with a quirky owner gracefully transfers ownership to his reluctant apprentice. Dustin Hoffman is ebullient and charming. Natalie Portman is adorable. An intelligent, affectionate story absent of undeserved sentiment that is worthy of repeated viewing. The HD transfer is beautiful."
343434,2,Good Enough to Convince Me that Men in Kilts are Studs!,"When this book was recommended to me (an avid historical fiction reader), a time travel romance didn't seem appealing. Finally I read it and...wow! These characters are so interesting and well written. My only qualm with the book is the way Gabaldon switches back and forth between first and third person -- it is distracting to say the least. Otherwise, I highly recommend this book. And don't be intimidated by the book's length, it is a quick read."
343450,2,"Not that this book needs another rave review, but....","All I can say after the reviews I just read is ditto, me too, and yesss! Having read Outlander and Dragonfly in Amber, I too know the luxury of sinking into Diana Gabalon's sassenach saga and never wanting to come up for air. I love that I have at least two more to read. Thank you, Ms. Gabalon."
343467,2,LOVED IT,Love Cher and I have a new respect for Christine's voice after this movie. Makes me wanna check out a burlesque joint next time I'm in L.A.!! Would def buy the soundtrack too.
343469,2,Dazzling and Bold,I've loved this movie since the day I saw it in theaters with my friends on a night out. The music and dancing was wonderful. The love story behind it was great my sisters still joke about how much they want a cookie. If you havent seen the movie youll understand once you do. I give it major thumbs up and I cant do a review on this movie without saying does Cher never age or what she looks phenomenal in this movie. So if your questioning on buying it I say go for it and if you have questions hit my review with a comment I would be glad to answer.
343489,2,A wonderful book.,"I happened upon this gem of a book at my local library. Jut a few pages into I was hooked. John Parris visited the mountain people of Western Carolina, picking up charming stories, old knowledge and interesting history along the way. I read about things in this book that I would have never found otherwise. The book appears to have been written in the 1960s or early 1970s. You read of know-how from generations past that is becoming more and more scarce as time goes by. If you can find a copy of this book, it is well worth your time and money."
343511,2,Extremely raw!,"This is definitely a book where you need a strong stomach to read. It's incredibly raw and brutal, but very straighforward. Luke Davies has done an amazing job. I've always been of the opinion that a person fighting addiction needs to see the good, the bad and the ugly. The very worst of what addiction does to you. After all, we are human beings on this planet. And there are a very good percentage of us that need to hit rock bottom, that need to have death stare us straight in the eye to get the point. A good hard, stinging slap in the face if you will. If this book doesn't do it, I don't know what would."
343702,2,Wonderful commentary and illustration.,"My family has been using this Haggadah for our seder for years. We have enjoyed discussing the artwork, reading the unique commentary and discussing it. We have been using it for close to two decades and it has enriched our experience greatly."
343812,2,Amazing Show!,"This is one of my favorite shows, and one of my favorite seasons. The combination of Drama, Comedy, and Science fiction is outstanding!"
343824,2,"Good quality, nice product","The Tervis cups are very nice and of great quality. The lifetime guarantee is very reassuring, as well as the fact that this company has been around for so long. I recommend these cups! Beverages stay nice and cold for a lot longer than ""regular"" cups. I have the travel lids too, and they're great!"
343909,2,A very headstrong and talented woman,"I think it was so courageous of Shania to take care of her siblings after her parents got killed in that head on collision. She is a woman who truly gave her all in life, and she really strove to make the most of it. She started out in poverty, and she ended up having several multi-platinum albums, and many #1s. She marks an era in both Country and Pop music, and she hit the #1 spot in both categories. Coming from me, an aspiring singer, I know it's not easy. Shania, my dream would be to sing with you, and you truly are #1!!!!"
343921,2,Toasty!,"Not only did I receive them in just 2 days, I love them! My feet are always cold and this was just the ticket. They smell and feel great! Love my toasty toes!!! Great price too. Thanks!"
344011,2,Kick ass!,This game is one of the best online games i have ever played.If your getting this game your going to have to have internet connection to play.Also one player is not that fun at all really it mostly made for playing online. One bad thing is that you need a good graphics card but i have a Radeon 9800 Xt it works perfect. You should denftinely buy it i won all the battle field games.Good Work EA!
344025,2,Excellant for someone wanting to learn the how-to's,"This book had a lot of basic information on what to do to achieve basic results. There were beautiful pictures of pop up from easy to very advanced pop ups but not all of the had the directions to do them. In the back of the book there are many,many designs with hearts and the directions to do them. It is a great book for one who wishes to learn the basic and take off on their own. I personally was looking for more designs to fool around with before I started to design myself. I plan on doing lots of hearts"
344030,2,"Good, enlightening work","The Kennedy brothers have worked they magic of historical research again with their latest book. When one reads the careful documentation of the early part of the nation and how it was set up, it is VERY hard to think of Jeff Davis as a traitor. In fact, it is very hard to think of Davis as anything other than a principled man. Those schooled in the line of history that states the South was nothing better than an outpost of Satan's infernal empire will get uneasy reading this tome. Definately read this book if you want a better understanding of early American history."

344285,2,Once in 5000 Years,"Cunfucian scholars have been long unfair to Wu Tse-T'Ien. For hundreds of years her rise to the throne of the Middle Kingdom has been read with shame, regret and loss of face that a woman could have reigned over the Golden Age of the most developed civilisation on earth.However, far from using her female devices to influence the Emperor and other men of power, she used tact, intuition, and her skills as an orator and politician to proclaim her own dynasty and inspire millions.Rising from an obscure birth, spending time in a nunnery, and with a personality both brutal and cruel as well as generous and endearing, her life, as revealed in Wu Tse-T'Ien and the Politics of Legitimation in T'Ang China (Studies on East Asia, Vol 11) is always fascinating."

344371,2,THE Indispensible guide to the ecology of Florida,"For more than a decade, 'Ecosystems of Florida' has become the standard by which all other books on Florida's unique ecology are judged. The flora, fauna, soil, climate, and hydrological characteristics of all of Floridas ecosystems are explained in exhaustive yet accessible detail. The book also has general information about the soil, climate, and geological history of Florida that helps the reader explore the ecosytem chapters with a broader understanding of the ecology of the state as a whole. Concluding chapters tie in the influence of people to the history of Florida's ecology and explain the role people will take in shaping or breaking Florida's natural areas in the future. This book has become more than a reference to me. It presents a very complex set of information in a clear, easily-read, and entertaining format that makes it hard to put down."
344378,2,gorgeous,An absolutely amazing story. I felt so inspired and ready to take on the world after I finished the last page. I read this for the first time a couple years ago and it has continued to haunt me in the way that only the exceptional can. I highly recommend!
344384,2,Arias For The 21st Century!,"Having discovered Jean-Patrick Capdevielle's music by hearing Filippa Giordano and others perform it, I was nonetheless under-prepared for the depth, power and deep melodic content of his ""Atylantos"". The quality of the singers, instrumentation and, of course, Capedevielle's powerful arias make this CD one of the most precious I own.Whether one calls it NeoClassical, Contemporary Classical or Crossover Classical, you'll simply call this CD beautiful. It marries contemporary instrumentation to lush orchestral elements, world-class operatic stars to Capdevielle's arias and awesome overall production values into a single package that can be listened to over and over, ad infinitum, and never tire of it!Grab a copy and be prepared to be overwhelmed!"
344428,2,A Stew of Genius,"This book has a method in which to induce the reader to keep reading, especially if that reader happens to already be intrigued by planes.In this vivid account Pat Milton takes the reader inside the lives and homes of the victims' family and as close as possible to the reason of the crash.Like the sinking of the Titanic, the crash of TWA Flight 800 just off Long Island, New York, in the early evening of July 17, 1996, captured the world's imagination. Associated Press reporter Pat Milton has covered the story from day one and was granted unprecedented access to the FBI investigation--the largest and most complex in the agency's history.Initially suspecting that a crime had been committed, James Kallstrom, the head of the FBI's New York office, led the two-year investigation from the start."
344433,2,Pretty Good Tuner,"Worked well with my laptop, picked up 12-16 Dtv channels, software that came with it is okay but media center is better"
344451,2,"Not as good as the first book, but still addictive","This is the second book of this series. I am currently 3/4 of the way through the book. I was able to complete the first book in three sittings, it was that good. This one is taking me longer. Not that it is not good, but it is not as gripping as the first book. The second book mellowed out more than I expected, but maybe that is part of the plan. I am still enjoying it though and still look forward to finishing the series completely. I still believe that this series was geared for teenagers, maybe because the story is based on a group of kids. I'm still looking forward to seeing what happens, so it is definitely drawing me in."
344489,2,Touch pad adjustment,"I've had the HP 4705 for about a week now. Very impressed with the screen clarity. Nice solid feel to the metal case. The touch pad was almost useless at first because it would jump to the left when you wanted to up, or it would jump to the right when you wanted to go down. Rather frustrating. However, in fooling with the settings, I found that you can reduce the sensitivity of the pad, and lo and behold, it works right now. :-) Guess it's sort of like how Windows 3.1 came with an impossible double click speed. (Microsoft finally got the double click speed set right in new versions of Windows.) Maybe HP will take a hint and have the touch pad default to a less sensitive setting in the future."
344520,2,Kid Rock: You'll ROCK: buy this!,"Not just rockin' hard-core Rap. Turned out to be some really groovin' ballad type songs as well. The lyrics are excellent, the bass kicks, the back-up singers sweet, guests joining in (listen for Joe C) rock, an upset couple of answering messages (one from his mom)...this is HOT! Rock's here to stay! To Rock: Keep 'em coming, keep 'em tight"
344582,2,"Mac users, keep hope","I am a private pilot (The flying-nurse), since I am 24 years old. I played on FLY! with great pleasure. And FLY! 2K makes a great improvement.There is more choice of planes. More sénarios, more maps.... You can go to Paris, make a flight travel from Salzburg to Vienna in Austria. And the landscape is real. Salzburg is in the mountains and Vienna is a plain on the edge of Danube. The reactions of the planes are real. Even with my experimence, I still make catastrophics landings. I advise you to start by ""walking in the air"", just relaxe, enjoy the view. Then practice your take-offs and practice your landings. All your life, like real pilots. We do not have the chance to have a PC, but the serie, FLY!, is what is best for the public how does not want to have fighters. Good luck."
344588,2,Good Movie,Bought this for my 8 year old niece and she thinks it is great. A little boring for older children.
344616,2,incredible,"I love love love this album it so rocks this has to be one of the best albums i've ever heard they will forever rock I have loved them for 15yrs and I will always love them ""since you walked into my life"" & ""if you go away"" are some of the best songs i've ever heard please buy this album you will not regret it!!!!!!!!!!!! misty"
344659,2,"Just one more thing: Thanks, Universal","Finally, my dream come true. I've been expecting this release for a long time. I keep all the Columbo episodes on VHS and now it's great to know they're being released on DVD, hope it'll continue with all the seasons ahead. Robert Culp (Death lends a hand), Ross Martin (Suitable for framing), Jack Cassidy (Murder by the book),Roddy McDowell (Short fuse) and even Leslie Nielsen (Lady in waiting) are among the great actors that share the credits with Mr. Peter Falk (tip of the hat to him). Go for it, you won't regret it."
344668,2,Odd but Captivating,"Many other students in my College Graphic Novel course did not like this read, however I found it very profound and deep. It's hard to get into because of all the ambiguous issues and other literature that is incorporated in conversation. It's still a great work and definitely worthwhile."
344729,2,Inspirational,"I am admittedly an Evelyn Glennie fan so this review may be biased. I loved the soundscape presented by the music on this album. It made me want to sit down and improvise on my instruments. I just got done listening to it for the fourth time and what empresses me the most is the non-percussion sounds especially on track 4. It is quite spooky! If you have anything by Micky Hart or Pink Floyd, you will like this even more.I strongly recommend this album especially for the adventurous listener."
344869,2,Nice Blend,Nice blend of old Footloose into a contemporary milieu. iPod with beat up VW bug. Older sounds with contemporary sounds. Older dance with contemporary style dance. Acting was naturalistic and not overly pop Hollywood. Overall just nicely scripted. Suggest seeing the original first then this redux update.
344978,2,Does what it says on the tin,"Its funky!Although the cover would lead you to believe this is a bona fida Dr John album, in fact its not. Orginally it was released as The Donald Harrison Band with Dr John. Makes no difference though its still great.Tracks 2 to 8 were recorded live at Birdland in 1991 and most of the time the music reeks of New Orleans, but just occasionally some great straight ahead Jazz playing slips in (not surprising as they were playing at Birdland) such as a minute into Iko Iko when Harrison takes a great Jazz Alto Sax solo and there follows a Piano solo that clearly isn't Dr Johns. On Mamzelle Zizi Harrison goes into a Coltrane like solo over a modal vamp. So its a very interesting mix!Its all great stuff and you'll love this if like Dr John and theres plenty of great Alto playing to justify buying this if you're a Jazz nut."
345156,2,Perfect for my daughter,This book is just what I needed for my daughter. It's working out much better than 100 easy lessons because she's an early read so the pictures really help keep her interested.
345180,2,Beautiful Singing,"Truly is Beautiful Singing (bel canto)from a gorgeous voice. I actually haven't heard many of these arias before. In the notes it says that the composers wrote less florid melodies, and Renée is staying true to what they actually wrote. So, if these were compared to the same arias by other singers a few years ago, they will probably sound a little different. I really thoroughly enjoyed the orchestral support from the Orchestra of St. Luke's under Patrick Summers. I also really liked the mezzo in the Maria Padilla arias. I really wasn't very fond of the La Sonnambula arias, I liked hearing arias I had never heard before but I wish she would have done more well known ones (to me at least). I really liked the Il Pirata tracks, I hope they record her full role in that. All in all, Beautiful Singing."
345183,2,Brava Renee!,"This is Bel Canto at its finest! Beautiful, haunting and moving! I love Renee, she's gorgeous, very talented and the best soprano I ever heard!"
345204,2,Love this show,The downloads/streaming of Amazon prime can't be beat. I haven't missed a single episode since I signed up and I love it.
345253,2,Brings Back Memories,We really enjoyed playing this game. It brought back alot of memories of shows we had watched as kids.
345256,2,Necessary if you are going in to a medical field,"This was suggested to me by an A&P teacher, as a necessity of anyone going to Nursing school, or anyone in the medical field. Older version are cheaper, but have same content so don't bother getting a new more expensive version."
345332,2,4-yr old loves it!,"We got this for our just turned 4-yr old daughter and she LOVES it more than I expected her to. She wants to dance with the dvd every night and the look on her face is a joy to see! She was Cinderella during Halloween so she already had the dress and the glass slippers to go with it. I highly recommend this product. Tons of fun. Hard to find though. I got ours at Toys r Us 2 months before Xmas, it was the last one and the box was pretty beat up. never saw it at Toys r Us again, glad I got it."
345358,2,Fantastic Collection,"Tori Amos Video Collection,together on dvd for the first time.The only omissions from her back catalogue of videos are the treatments for ""Glory of the 80s"" and ""Strange Little Girl"".A huge bonus is the video commentary by Tori herself,which only enhances the experience,adding extra layers and facets.A wonderful value,this is a must for any fan of Tori Amos."
345525,2,The Best Septuagint translation,"This is the Standard translation for the Septuagint that has been used for years. Brenton does a great job providing the greek text along.. Whenever I need to really get down to brass tacks with scripture this is always my last resort since its directly from the codex vaticanus.. Many of the Jewish texts have been corrupted after the death of Christ and they tried to ""buffer"" the prophetical texts regarding Christ(like changing virgin to young woman and other common damage control tactics)..Since the codex vaticanus is the earliest bible we have(the codex is older than the masoteric texts) this is probably yhe best translation we have. Espesially reading how well the Jewish scholars for Ptolemy translated it(they probably had a better version in their hands back then, then the masoteric texts we have now)"
345530,2,What happens when it freezes?,I like my rapid reel but that could be because the old plastic one was less fun than thorn in your toe. This seems well built. The instructions contain errors that make assembly more difficult than is necessary.we will see what happens when it freezes. Too bad it couldn't have been made to be removed from wall for winter drainage and storage. Update: It has been though a few freeze thaw cycles without a problem.
345554,2,The Best Seasn yet,I love how Deamon & Sefan do anything to save Elena from death. I can;t get enough of season 3. I say this is the best season yet to come by far. I love this show very much. I don;t regret buying season 3. I can;'t wait till season 4 comes out then i;m going to buy it. i recommend u all to buy season 3 if your a big fan of the show. Its better then Twilight movies. I love Ian & Matt Daivs. U be shocked at the end of season 3 its going to be a cliff hanger.
345560,2,"My children love it, but complain it is not up to date.","This junior dictionary is ideal for 8 to 12 years old kids, ithas everything they need at that age. The dictionary is built in sucha colorfull way that is easy for them to find the words and their different meanings with examples, homographs, homophones, idioms and inflected forms. Pronunciation keys are presented at the botton of every right hand page. A new edition is required to update the new countries and world map. The price is a real bargain."
345585,2,Blue Hour Sessions,This is a terrific collection.Stanley Turrentine and Gene Harris are at the top of their games in these sessions.
345611,2,Gene Flinn is a comic genius,"I simply loved reading the 22 stories in this collection by Eugene Flinn. Where has this author been hiding? He is a comic genius in the style of William Kennedy O'Toole.Like O'Toole's Pultizer-prize winning novel, The Confederacy of Dunces,"" Flinn's It Happened in Hoboken is loaded with richly drawn characters, colorful, hilarious dialogue, and plots that surprise and delight with every twist and turn. It Happened in Hoboken is a map of the lively waterfront city, the way James Joyce's The Dubliners is a map of old Dublin.Flinn is an author to be watched. His style is up there with the very best of Irish storytellers."
345613,2,Not Region Free,"Wonderful video, but please be aware that the Bluray version is region coded, so unless you use a computer or a Region Free Bluray player, you will not be able to watch this bluray outside the American continent. Don't trust the product details description displayed on the amazon page."
345616,2,microfiber hair towel,Love this towel. It is light weight and very absorbent. Just the right size for wrapping your hair and washes up nicely. Don't know how lived with out it.
345634,2,"""The Dirt"" UK style","Here's a guy who paved the way for Motley Crue's excess and debauchery. A fun read. Gives you a glimpse into UK life during the 60's and 70's sex drugs & rock & roll age. Lemmy is the messiah of speed metal and death metal. It all started with Motorhead. Without Lemmy, we wouldn't have Metallica."
345670,2,Perfect intro to SQL and PL/SQL,"This books covers all the necessary basics of SQL, and then shows how to create Oracle triggers, functions, and stored procedures. It's easy to read. It has great examples. Couldn't ask for a better combination."
345695,2,he's a little bit rock 'n' roll...,"I must admit that I prefer the ""harder"" side of Steven Curtis Chapman's music. Hard-hitting lyrics and a faster rock beat appeal to me much more than the softer, quiet tunes. This album definitely does not disappoint. Even some of the softer tracks carry an edge to them, thanks to the well crafted percussion and guitar licks.Only three tracks, When Love Takes You In, Carry You To Jesus and Savior, show us Chapman's truly soft side. Mind you, it wouldn't be a Chapman album without songs like this. All three are weighty, and worthy of pause and contemplation.Other tracks, like Live Out Loud, See the Glory and Bring It On, are stirring and powerful at the other end of the spectrum. Chapman really lets loose and rocks here, pushing beyond the boundaries of past releases. Again, he has expanded his musical horizons yet managed to maintain a balance and consistency that very few can match.Larry Hehn, author of Get the Prize: Nine Keys for a Life of Victory"
345759,2,Unfinished!,"This set was very entertaining, however the disc with the last three episodes of the season would not play. I had not watched the series until season three, and I felt I missed a lot of info leading into that season."
345766,2,Fulling,This protein Bar is perfect for someone who wants to get a sweet and fulling taste.it will help with the hunger for at least 3 hours.
345852,2,A Grandpa for Christmas,Absolutely loved this story. Great acting. Wonderful story line. Makes you think how much you don't know about your parents or grandparents. Super star line up. I never saw this movie before but will always watch this around Christmas. Good sole food.
345885,2,classic book,great book if you are trying to teach you children spanish . its also a good book for potentially bilingual children.
345948,2,Dayton Family do it again!,"At first I didn't really like this album but after acouple more listen it has grown to be one of my favorites. Although is fails to beat ""Whats on my Mind?"" & ""F.B.I."" its still a very strong album. Only things I dont like is Shoestings verse on Young Thugs is already used on his solo album ona song called Dead Or Alive another thing I don't like is Bootleg talking about coke all the time and calling him self Bootzilla all the time. Great album pick it up if your into the last true gangsta rap left on the planet."
346034,2,Good Value,"I have the blue, red, and black Zefal water cages. I like these because the plastic part is the part that connects to the frame, whic helps against paint chipping. The all-metal ones will eventually chip the paint. I've had mine for 2-years plus and haven't experienced any problems. Yes, they don't come with screws; that's how they keep the price down. The bolts are 5mm. I bought some stainless steel ones from my local hardware store."
346041,2,Make them BIG!,"Westlife is one of the best boy bands to come out in a long time. They're better than those US made boy bands, because they sing those love songs and ballads, that you want to listen to when you're feeling mellow or you just want to relax. This album is awesome. My favourite song on it is ""Fool Again"" because it's got that sort of tune that you get stuck in your mind. ""Seasons in the Sun"" is a cover of a 70's song, and I recently heard the original, and I must say, Westlife does it better. It's much more smooth and relaxing sounding. Despite their image of a ballad boy band, there are some more up tempo, yet still mellow songs on this album. These are the types of boys you would want to bring home to mum. One album to thoroughly enjoy!"
346079,2,A MUST READ,"It does not matter who you are, where you are in your life you will benefit in some way or another from reading this book. Once again it is a Must Read Book."
346084,2,Superb writing on Paris and life,"Adam Gopnik's ""Paris to the Moon"" is a collection of essays, many of which previously appeared in THE NEW YORKER, for which he has written for some years. Gopnik details not only cultural differences between France and America (he sometimes refers to his life in Manhattan as ""my real life""), but gives us a great deal about his family life in general. Having spent a brief part of his childhood in Paris, he is in a unique position to compare his own experiences there to those being had by his son Luke, four years old at the time of the essays.Gopnik has a great gift for subtle humor. While rarely poking overt fun at Parisians, he manages to show their multi-faceted character--overly serious about some things, lighthearted about others, fairly sexist (both men and women), concerned with both surface (good looks, scarves, the right hat) and depth (Jean-Paul Sartre)."
346100,2,Love my Immersion Blender!,I am so happy with this blender. I love that the blade end is metal and removeable. It also has adjustable speeds. It's really great!
346181,2,Intersting...yet disturbing,"I thought that this book took alote of imagination to write,(I hope). I was very shocked by the ending and the combination of true crime and beliefs of past life was a great idea. I very enjoyed it very much and I will look for more books by Anne Kelley."
346195,2,The making of the atomic bomb,"Excelent...Particularly the review of Physics developments during the first half of the XXth century, in the first part of the book, is superb."
346201,2,Outbound calls...,"You most certainly can make out bound calls using Skype even when they are not in your contact list!1. Press and hold ""0"" till a ""+"" shows up.2. Dial the number including country and area code.3. Hit the Skype button, not the green talk button.Skype then dials your number even if you do not have it in your contacts. This is a great phone!"
346321,2,"Great live show, good DVD too, but...","I also saw this show at the Queen Elizabeth Theater in Vancouver B.C. Canada, and its about time too, I'd been waiting since 1983 to see these guys. Wow, what a terrific show... I was not dissapointed at all!Onto the DVD... Its just OK. Why just ok? Well, there was plenty going on up on stage that was missed on the DVD.Like the obviously staged fight between Peter and Daniel. They must have done that at every venue.Also, the end credits roll during the best song on the damn DVD.And... whats with the bizarre CGI morphing effects?!? You didnt notice it? Watch the DVD again then.Aside from those gripes, I give the DVD 4 stars because its the Bauhaus! But why is it the only DVD available?!?!Hint Hint!! Lets have Archive and the rest that are on VHS on DVD finally!!"
346348,2,Works well,"The chargers seem to work fine, the wall charger did seem a bit cheap, but it hasn't had any issues. I primarily purchased for the car charger part."
346412,2,Can't Wait For The Movie!,"It goes-and-goes-and-goes. Pure fun! Easy Reading; great dialog. Pick it up, you won't put it down."
346476,2,A really good book!!!,If you like mysteries you'll love this book. It's a very exciting book and you'll want to keep reading on to finally find out who that stalker is.
346562,2,"Great product, but google a video first","The product works great, and is very easy to install, with one caveat. Find a YouTube video and watch how to install it first. The enclosed directions are completely inadequate. If I hadn't found a good video first, I would been at a complete loss on how to remove the door panel, the old regulator, etc.I watched this one[...] still left a few things out, but it made the work take about 30 minutes, instead of being at a complete loss."
346691,2,Surviving the extreme,"Bear is ""the most"" knowledgeable survivalist I've ever seen, explaining what to do AND what not to do in dangerous situations. He constantly puts himself to the test in the most extreme conditions, going places and doing things that most people wouldn't attempt nor could even survive. At the same time you get to see some of the most beautiful scenery and spectacular views on earth."
346784,2,This video is a Gem!,I am so happy that I could get this DVD for my personal collection. I can relate to the dances in the video. It is a good timeline of ethnic dance(Black dance) in this country. This video brings back great memories.
346861,2,The best kept Sondheim secret...,"One of my favorites and perhaps the most underrated of Sondheim's musicals. The music and lyrics are inspirational. The story follows its characters along their bumpy path to success- backward from jaded middle aged movie producer to wide eyed ambitious youngster. It simply and profoundly illustrates the pain and beauty of following your dreams, trusting your loved ones and how one must ""burn your bridges every now and then or you'll never grow..."" A Perfect graduation gift- especially for young people interested in the entertainment business."
346919,2,Track Listing,This is a great album - just like all SEB albums! Looks like amazon doesn't have a track listing for it so...1. Speedy Speed Boy / Marko Polo2. Mikado / Dave McLoud3.

346972,2,Audrey Tautou O la la,"You dont want to miss the same star who played in AMELIE and HE LOVES ME NOT Audrey Tautou the famous french film actress who also plays a great part in this drama BABY BLUES...It's about a small French town that falls under scrutiny when the bones of a small child are dug up in its vicinity. When a detective looks into the case, he discovers that many strange and secretive people populate the town, taxing his powers of deduction. This isnt one of the best films Audrey Tautou stars in but its a cute film and very pleasant to watch."
346979,2,Suits my needs,"It is very functional for what I need. My husband doesn't think it has much style, but I likeit. It is sturdy and I would reccomend it to anyone."
347066,2,BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE TO A MASTER CRAFTSMAN.,"To be honest, I haven't actually read this book yet. Since the previous reviewers/commentators have covered all the bases regarding this volume let me just say that GOWNS BY ADRIAN is a beautiful book with many lovely photos that have been lovingly reproduced (no dupey quality here!).My only regret - and the reason for the 4 star rating - is that the majority of the photos are of Adrian's ""modern time"" creations. I would have loved to have seen more data/pictures from his costume pictures. To be sure MARIE ANTOINETTE is hi-lighted -- but it would have been terrific to have seen his splendid gowns for the other costume epics he created while at MGM."
347134,2,Hard Core DH Fans should read this book,I first want to say that I love Kenyon's DH books. I don't believe she has written a bad DH book. With that being said this book was a transitioning book. Kenyon used Dark side of the Moon to help set up for her stories about Ash. I didn't feel that she did Ravyn and Susan justice. The Romance was very lacking.If you are I hard core DH fan(like me)then you really need to read this book. It will answer question and you will have a better understanding of future plots.(I think so anyway) However I would not spend the money on a hard back book. I would wait until it come out in paper. You are not missing anything important.
347138,2,Incredibly informative and helpful.,"Although I have not yet completed the book, I find this work a must for anyone who wishes to work on the individual chakras and utilize meditation offered as a daily practice. I never expected this work to be so incredibly informative and helpful and I would recommend it to family and friends as a must have keepsake to refer to daily to uplift the spirits and do the restorative suggestions offered. Amazon delivered the book in excellent condition as usual and it arrived ahead of schedule of the date stated which made me very happy and excited."
347141,2,cute little camera,"cute little camera! i got it as a gift for a friend and she flipped. it came within the time quoted. so far, so good!!!"
347275,2,Coffie shop at home,"There was a coffee shop near where I worked. They served the best Spiced Chai Tea Latte. Unfortunately, my office moved locations, but I need my Chai fix. One day when I was back in the area of the coffee shop I saw what they were using to make their Chai. It was Big Train. I've been buying this ever since. I love this so much more than the Tazo Chai that they fix at Starbucks. I just make mine with hot water and its good. You'll have to make it into a Latte to get the full coffee shop experience. Hot water or Latte it still tastes the same. My wife who is a coffee drinker says its too sweet or sugary. I've never had a taste for coffee, but I absolutely love this Spiced Chai and have gotten several people at work hooked; your welcome Big Train :)"
347291,2,"Cute, baby loves it!","I purchased this recently for my 7 month old. He hasn't quite gotten the hang of ""put the ball in the elephant's head and it makes music"", but I'm sure that will come with time. He looooves pulling the whole thing apart. I don't know why I bother putting it back together again. He loves the head, the base, the little rings. Over time, I'm sure he'll grow into liking to keep it altogether, which is what I like about this toy."
347320,2,worth it,"Overall, I am happy with the price and quality of the product. The installation was just a little hard while aligning it and screwing it in to my rear hatch window on my 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I give it 4 stars."
347336,2,"Pretty Good, They Didn't Change Too Much From Last Album","Good Cd. I'm Glad To See That These Guys Didn't Experiment With New Things On This Album Cause That's Usually Where Bands And Other Artists Screw Up And Make Weak Albums (Limp Bizkit - The Unquestionable Truth.) Some Songs That Stood Out To Me Were (Plastic Man, Gift, Remedy, Diseased, Because Of Me, Given, World Falls Away.)"
347445,2,Thank you,One could be extravagant about the grandior of this book. But it is simply a well written book that could change your life. It is simple and Truthful. I will open your eyes and hopefully your life to how much better it could be.
347473,2,Amazing clear pictures every time,"I liked this product very much because I used it for surf photography on a HUGE day, and no water penetrated the case as it did on my old single-use ""waterproof"" cameras that i had used before. The Bell & Howell BH714 Water Resistant 35mm camera takes clear pictures every time. The camera not only help up to the waves beating on it, but it also took some of the clearest pictures i have ever seen from a camera that parallels this one in price, or anywhere near this price."
347494,2,a classic cd with classic techno tunes,this is a cd full of music at a time when there was not as much seperation and labelling on styles of music ... it was before jungle and happy hardcore were born and therefore has some classic raw choons.
347524,2,Buy this only if you like to read,"I bought this game for my son who *loves* the Digimon show. He *hated* this game (as did I). My son is 7 is is still a novice reader. The game has no sound (other than music). It requires you to read text in balloons (like in a comic book). The text prints out at the pace of a snail. So, even though I was helping him read the text, it was painfully slow!!!!!!! We played the game for about a 1/2 hour and then just gave up in utter misery and frustration. There was no real action, just walking around and talking to people. I'm sure we didn't get very far into the real game, but it was just to painful and boring to continue."
347591,2,PSD Still The best Live Show,"On a whim or chance did I even find a copy of this CD now living far away from the Western Mass of my youth. Some of my greatest Memories were seeing PSD play Live and as then, I wonder why this band never went much past that music filled area. The live stuff on the CD, is as good as I remember, new recordings are a little less impressive, but worth the listen. I comend PSD for continueing the play, and recomend this ""blast from the past"" to any who remember, and any who love great 80's style fun-punk, Western Mass Hardcore."
347597,2,The Help,"The DVD, The Help, arrived in excellent condition and in a timely manner. I enjoyed watching the movie and have shared it with others here at home since receiving it."
347686,2,Old School Poison,"I have read the reviews and even came across one review that said this album was ""cheesy"". Well yeah its old school Poison! How could anybody expect anything less? Here is a party band, keyword being party who isn't exactly known NOT to take anything too seriously, unless your listening to the Flesh and Blood Album. This is a good ol party album. If you like songs like Ain't Nothin but a good time and Look what the cat dragged in you will love this album. Long live Poison...the way back to good ol fashioned rock n roll."
347729,2,Happy,Very very happy with this product. I didn't have any trouble with the latch - but I only wear earrings like these. Wonderful quality
347766,2,"Can't say its awesome, but too too good !!!","I had read few reviews in dpreview and amazon about the noise in low light conditions. Believe me, I dint notice much of noise in Auto Mode (thats what i explored on Day1 with my P5000).Good:1. Neat pics even in low light conditions.2. Shutter lag - you wont feel it (not during low lighting though, which is understandable)3. Nice ergonomics4. Lots of Manual settings which almost matches a DSLR.Bad:1. Auto focus takes a little noticeable time, but its not bad.I had lots of expectations from this cam, and so far am happy with its performance. All in all, a great cam for the price."
347850,2,Very good first novel.........,"This is an excellent mystery--fast paced and thoughtful. Very well written with no glitches (except for overuse of the word ""grind""). Characters are well-drawn, especially the protagonist and his lawyer/friend Billy. Very polished for a first time author. As far as the previous review's comment about the barred owl--it seemed obvious to me that it was a fake owl call made by the bad guy. Highly recommended."
347903,2,In Spite of Its Length...,"This big book is a written loom. WW patiently weaves a long story from many threads. Little by little you'll discern the scenery but the resulting fabric will reveal itself at the end only.Curiously enough, in spite of its length, I never got bored to the point of skipping through. I felt for Jason and Nick each time they surfaced, I understood the road-to-hell-is-paved-with-good-intentions guys, and I hated the true villains.The woven tapestry remains in my mind: A large flowing Mississippi river at its heart helplessly watched by vulnerable human beings out of their depth.A last note: To make the reading a bit lighter one possibly can skip all the old reports since most of their content is duplicated in the story itself."
347920,2,Thanks for a good book,"I just got transferred stateside after doing a tour in Iraq. While I was there my buddies and I got a bunch of books sent to us from a library in Chester County, PA, where I grew up. The library was collecting books for servicemen and then shipping to us, which is a really nice thing. It made home seem a lot closer.The first book I received was Ghost Road Blues by Jonathan Maberry. I love horror stories and this one was pretty great. I read it twice --when I first got it at the end of June; and then again on the plane home. The story is set in Pennsylvania and it was so real that I could close my eyes and be a long, long way from hot wind, hot desert sand, and everything that's going on here.I want to thank the Chester County libraries, and Mr. Maberry, for giving me a taste of home."
348075,2,good but a little noisy,"Great airflow, good size. fits in the window nicely (horizontal or vertical). I guess I was expecting a little more quiet operations. It is not bad (I sleep with the fan on) but louder than I expected."
348104,2,"Not all follies all the time, but funny still.","There's more than just stumbles and falls on this video, but still another fun video in the series. My young boys get a kick out of watching them, but especially enjoy the first two in the Greatest Follies Series. There's a couple of stories that are repeats from Vol. 3 which was disappointing."
348127,2,Supplement,New Chapter Prostate 5LX works fine for me helping to keep my prostate from enlarging. Obtaining the product through Amazon is easy and is quick. Also the price is less than any place I can get it locally.
348151,2,Good story,Laura Lippman is a great story teller who writes with believable dialogue. I've read most of her later books and enjoyed them much too.
348194,2,A requested favorite over and over,I first checked out this book from our library and it has proven to be one of our best book selections ever. Our 3 year-old son has requested it every single night since we brought it home and he loves studying the illustrations. He is especially amused at the jaguar making a jam sandwhich at the end of the story. I often find him looking at this book on his own. It has truly sparked his interest in letters!
348207,2,Great!,"I was skeptical about this product when I saw the price, but comments from other buyers changed my mind. I'm definitely happy with what I got. It charges well (maybe even faster than with a USB cable) and it is less annoying to not have to start up my computer each time I have to recharge. This is definitely a steal for the price they charge."
348216,2,"Iraqi History: Once More, With Feeling","As we replay Iraqi early 20th century history--with the US playing the part of Britain--Black lays out the history of ancient Mesopotamia through recent Iraq, and makes a good attempt to explain what, who and why. He frequently allows the major players to explain themselves, quoting extensively from British government documents and oil company records. I found it fascinating."
348243,2,Very cool movie,"I loved this movie. It deals with controversial metaphysical concepts in a light but respectful way. All very real as well, tho the reality setting may not be the same reality you normally inhabit. The performances are marvelous. Highly recommended."
348247,2,Cute Movie!!,"I love this movie! Yes, it is a total chick flick movie with predictable happy ending, but more!This movie has the typical romance and a few twist and turns, but the underlying message seems to be to live life to the fullest and don't forget to take a few chances.Great acting from both Reece Whiterspoon and Mark Rufalo. The movie is funny in parts and moves at a great pace without being dull or boring."
348284,2,"For the ""I can't learn from a book"" impaired!","Generally I have a hard time learning from books -- I need someone to physically show me how to do it -- but this book was a totally different experience for me. Whether you've never knitted before or you've mastered all the major concepts, this book will have something for you. I've bought Monkey Suits patterns by the author before and they're the coolest -- easy to follow, correct (!), and totally adorable. If you never thought you could learn something complicated like knitting from a book, check this out."
348291,2,LOVE IT!!!,I saw this movie twice in theaters and just fell in love with it!!! Love the movie!! So glad I now own it!! Plus it came a day before it was due!! :)
348294,2,"Interesting first album from a ""hard to categorise"" band","When I first put this CD in my player, I was not expecting such diverse album because of relatively modest album cover. But what I listened is a very well crafted mix of Rock, Jazz and Pop in the style of Steely Dan, Prince and even some Limp Bizkit in the end.Performance is flawless and compositions are really unique. Harmonies are rich and melodies are catchy. There is a Pop attitude definitely but arrangements are quite complex. Also I must admit that lyrics are really heartfelt and honest."
348296,2,Ari Hits The Mark!,"This DVD shows off the guitar artistry of Ari Eisinger and every time I watch him I end up speachless. ""Jesus Make Up My Dying Bed"" is worth the price alone but add to that Ari's mastery of the nuances of Blind Blake's and Blind Lemon's guitar styles and you have a wonderful representation of the man who is probably the number one proponent of the pre-war blues guitar."
348314,2,works great - made in the usa!,"Here's a great product that's reasonably priced, durable, and made in the USA!These clippers feel substantial in your hands and really cut through hair well. We use them for home use, so I'm not a hair stylist, but they do the job well, and again, they're made in the USA, so support American companies and buy these Oster clippers!"
348343,2,Very Grisham-like,"Chuck does a great job riveting the reader with The Trial of Job! Reads like Grisham, except it has twists and turns that Grisham doesn't approach! I highly recommend it!"
348345,2,Great Reference book,"This is a great linux book. Easy to find explanation of commands and nice information on shells, etc. If you are looking for a book to learn linux i wouldn't really recommend it. but it's a nice reference. it always stays within 5 feet of my computer"
348405,2,Very Comfortable,If you want a great sneaker for walking and everyday use... this is it. Very comfortable and lasts a good long time.
348428,2,Good action movie,"It is a good action movie, with exciting sequences throughout that will keep you watching the movie. Better than the first MI movie."
348430,2,Good Pace,Movie was well paced. Graphics were excellent. The action sequences were more than worth watching. All in all a fair movie.
348451,2,Great video for non-olympians needing to just get moving,"This is a great video for older people, very overweight people, or just anyone who does not get up and go on a regular basis. The video is a great low impact way to get the heart rate up and get the body moving. Requires no getting down on the ground, strenuous lifting or acrobatic movements. A great place to get started on the path to better health and fitness. I also find Mazda's delivery to be less annoying than the other popular walking video from Sansome. I own and use both videos, and I find the workouts are similar but sometimes I'm just not in the mood to listen to Sansome's animated commentary."
348480,2,BOOOOO DUH!,"I have 3 cats and they just love it! The ramp really does help keep the litter in the area rather than tracking all over our apartment. It doesn't eliminate ALL tracking, but it greatly reduces it from going all over the place. The privacy for the cats is a plus too, since one of our girls is really paranoid of being pounced while she does her business. The size holds plenty of litter for all three of them. The only reason why I cant give this a 5 star, is the curvature of the bottom of the litter pan. since it curves, its sometimes harder to scoop the pee balls up and sometimes it will break up a bit. Other than that smaller inconvenience, this is a GREAT product for keeping even the SMELL from reaching our bedroom!"
348485,2,best,"i love this cat box! it keeps everything covered and smelling fresh with the charcoal filter. however, my only problem with this is that the liner keeps coming out of the one clasp after my cat uses it so i have to continue to adjust it every now and again. overall though, i am highly satisfied with my purchase!"
348513,2,Feet Heaven,"My first product review. I bought these shoes online from shoemania. Came in three days even though they said it would take longer. Did the European conversion...I wear a US size 12 and got a 46 EU. Perfect fit! Anyhow, I took them out of the box and put them on and I exhaled ""YES"". These things feel so friggin good. They look great as well. Throw them on with jeans and they look like regular shoes from the front. My jeans hang a little over the back so you don't really see they are clogs but it feels so nice to have the breathability and a shoe you can kick off effortlessly. They go with Khaki's as well which is handy when changing out of the golf shoes and going in the club house for bite. They seem very well constructed with amazing support on the sole. I am mad at myself for being so reluctant to get clogs because it seemed a bit too girly for me. I am sold on the Naot brand and clogs for life. Buy and enjoy...trust me."
348543,2,ALL YOU NEED IS DEAN,THIS WAS THE BEST COMPILATION OF DEAN MARTIN FOR YEARS. ITS THE BEST TO START OUT WITH IF YOU ARE TRYING TO EASE INTO DEANS MUSIC.THIS IS SOOOO GOOD IT SHOWS WHY ONLY CROSBY COULD EQUAL THAT COOL AND EVERYDAY LOVE WE ALL HAD FOR DINO.HOW I MISS SEEING HIM ON TV.GET IT AND ENJOY AND KEEP FOREVER.
348565,2,Boring and Nerdy---but I loved it!,"Very interesting for those that are into this stuff! Went over my head many times...not sure if I am smart enough to read a book like this, but I did and enjoyed it!"
348577,2,Very insightful and helpful,"This book has a lot of helpful information for looking for and applying to graduate schools for clinical or counseling psychology, Ph.Ds or Psy.Ds. It provides different perspectives on the degrees and careers so that readers have a better understanding of what they may be going into."
348623,2,re-release this film,I WROTE A REVIEW ABOUT THIS FILM .......AND I WOULD LIKE TO UNDERSTAND WHY IT 'S OUT OF PRINT .......PEOPLE OUT THERE WRITE CALL AND SCREAM OUT LOUD TO HAVE THIS WONDERFUL SUBURBAN SAGA RE-RELEASE......
348715,2,Heart breaking and charming,"I had read this before, and realized I couldn't find my copy to loan to a friend, bought it and had to re-read it...with the same tears and joys. I lived in Austin for a time and this is MUCH reading for anyone who has ever lived there, OR owned a dog (or rather shared there life with a dog).A wonderful beautiful book."
348734,2,Klutz no more!,I gave this to my adult son. He had never juggled before and now is a juggling whiz! Great fun and you really can learn how to juggle.
348743,2,Amazing Anime,"My favorite anime by far. My only complaints would be that this collection doesn't work with VLC, but that's a minor issue. Also, it would be nice if the Japanese audio got the 5.1 treatment the way the English did. Even so, these are minor quibbles, and I would highly recommend this to any anime fan."
348770,2,Great Tool,I use ACAD 200 daily. My copy of this book is quite dog eared and probably needs to be replaced. I am almost constantly thinking of ways that I could get my ACAD 2000 program to work better with me. This book is extremely helpful for me to do that. I have found this book to be laid out well and has a VERY extensive index so that I can find out how to do what I want to do. I recommend very strongly that anyone that uses ACAD 2000 on a regular basis to have this book in their library and within reach.
348808,2,Great stylus for the iPad,"This stylus is awesome! It works perfectly and glides across the screen. This is the third one that I bought. I bought them for my wife and daughter and they love it also. It may be expensive, but you get what you pay for."
348811,2,works great,"The stylus works great much better than the apple version. The.weight is perfect, not to heavy and not too light."
348852,2,A product so good you do not know it is from homedics,"Most of the products from homedics are horrible. This one is actually an exception. It has some really redming qualties and is comfortable for someone with a really bad neck. I used those pillows for the neck support and they smashed down. I still love my Niken network marketing hard as a rock pillow best but that one is really expensive. It was the best of the high cost network marketing over priced stuff This is my back up and second favorite. It is a really nice product and I think it has a guarantee, so use it. Some come with a travel size free and 2 covers. Look around for deals and see which one is best."
348853,2,"I'm still trying to figure out what the ""hustle"" was.","With a title like ""The Big Hustle"", you'd expect the storyline to revolve around some kind of big con operation. I mean, I know this is just a softcore flick, so I wasn't expecting ""The Sting"", but the story is just about some guy who ticks off a local gangster and spends most of the film running from place to place to get away from him. Of course, everytime he stops off somewhere for a breather, we get a sex scene.There are nine sex scenes. Seven are boy/girl, one is boy/girl/girl, and one is girl solo. Only the threesome scene was really memorable. The rest of the scenes were mostly good, but a little on the short side. A couple of them were definitely too short. The women were all attractive and included Kim Dawson (two scenes) Regina Russell (one scene) and Lori Dawn Messuri (three scenes).This is a good release from Playboy, but not on par with the best that they've given us. But I still recommend it."
348878,2,The Key,"Lynsay Sands is one my favorite authors, but I have usually read her vampire books. The Key is probably the only historical novel that I have read in a few years. I thoroughly enjoyed it, even though the language was a little bit of a challenge. Great story!"
348908,2,The basics of studying God's Word,I was very excited to see that Dr. Bright has added another Transferable Conept to the group. This book is great for individuals who want some guidence in how to walk closer with God and study His word. It begins by explaining WHY to study the bible and they HOW. It is great for new believers or those just beginning to walk with the Lord because it also includes a overview of the whole bible and some guidence as to where to begin reading. This book was very helpful for me and encouraged me to memorize scripture and spend daily time with God.
348923,2,Enticing horror fiction at its best,"HEXES is the most engaging novel I've read in the past six months, on par with Doug Clegg's THE HALLOWEEN MAN (which is one of my favorites as well). THe characters come alive, the atomsphere wraps you in its endrils, and the narrative flow is action-packed and rapid-fire. THere's a depth here that few novels ever reach, and Piccirilli mines it to perfection."
348926,2,Jesus Asked,A good book that helped me prepare for a sermon on the subject of questions Jesus asked. The style was conversational and easy to grasp all in all a good read and a helpful tool.
348932,2,The Fake Husband,"The book is in very good condition, just one corner of the cover turned over. Shipping took forever, but glad I have the book now!!"
348975,2,I Really Liked It,"This book is difficult to categorize. Is it a strategy book or a methodology book? I guess I don't need an answer. I really liked it and believe that it will be one that I will reference often in the future.What makes this work special is the vision and principles chapters that help level-set the executive reader who may need to understand the context of the Best Practices that the author writes about in subsequent chapters. This vision is compelling and the principles outline the issues that corporate America must confront to achieve it.The rest of the book is a ""How To."" It is easy to read with plenty of real life examples and samples to help the reader truly understand how to make their organization's a Best Practice Enterprise -- a interesting idea in itself!"
348987,2,Highly Recommend this book 2 weeks prior to test date,Many people consider the Performance Tuning Exam to be the hardest of the series. I knew going into the test that there are many views and ratios that needed to be memorized. The book also gave a focus point to know what is important and what is not allowing for proper use of time when your test date is just around the corner.
349003,2,The Year of the Cat,"I loved reading these poems over and over. As I read, I think of my own cats, the ones that share their lives with me now and the ones who touched my life over the the years. If you have shared your life with a cat, this book of poems is a must have!Great book!Marilyn Glover"
349081,2,great product!,thank you for creating this! I'm so glad I will never have to buy litter again. My cat learned very quickly on this system and we're so grateful.
349094,2,Biggest I could find,"I have hundreds of hummingbirds migrate to my feeders about 6 months of the year they are up - and I have several of these. I only wish you could unscrew it from the top to fill, instead of unscrewing the bottom. It never gets ""full"". I always get sticky and screwing the bottom on upside down - usually results in a few spills - always a clean up afterward. I have to fill mine outside too, if you try to fill it inside and walk with it through the kitchen to get out - you will inevitably spill on the way."
349115,2,Fun Entertainment,"I have owned this game before, I never got to finish it. I am so glad i got it again. I managed to get further than i was before. What I liked best about this game is that it is 3rd person player. I find 1st person players are more difficult to play, and annoying to manuever."
349184,2,Alpha Lipoic Acid,I have taken this supplement for 8 years and it is a good source of amino acid for younger looking skin.
349197,2,Would Rate 5 Stars If Made in USA,"My wife and I first saw these at John Howie Steak in Bellevue, WA. The warm olive appetizer is served in one of these baker dishes. We liked the size for that type of application so decided to order from Amazon. They are exactly what we expected as we have quite a bit of the All-Clad copper core cookware. Like most manufacturers these days it seems more and more things are being made in China. These bakers are no exception. Is it really THAT much cheaper that something this small can't be made in America? Even the lids on the Copper Core are now made in China.Aside from the complaining the pans work well and are attracive."
349200,2,A great take on the Sherlock Holmes 'franchise',Sherlock Holmes has been made many times from multiple angles - this modern-day adaption works really well. Holmes and Watson play off each other to produce a gripping story with some interesting distractions - Holmes's legendary observations are (as always) amazing.
349214,2,What's for dinner?,"These cutting boards, with the three different colors to prevent cross-contamination of food, are terrific. Having worked as a cook in health facilities, I am familiar with the problems of food poisoning and how easily it is spread. These cutting boards really help to reduce the dangers of that in my home kitchen. Their flexibility makes them easy to store when they are not in use and they are easy to wash and care for. I wouldn't want to be without them!"
349428,2,a dvd for all regions,"What can a poor boy add to all those ravishing reviews? Nothing, just that i got my copy yesterday, and found that, contrary to what the product details say, the disc is not region-protected. So if you had cold feet because you might have to watch it in the computer or simply you could not watch it at all, forget it! Your dvd player will receive it with open arms (i take for granted your player understands NTSC). so you have no excuses now, go and spend whatever currency you have in your wallet, it's as good as the other guys say! Oh, and the same applies to 'The American Folk Blues Festival 1962-1966', all regions, baby!"
349430,2,Excellent stand,"I bought the stand used but when it came it looked brand new. It tilts a little, but other than that it is a sturdy professional stand."
349471,2,Makes mornings faster!,"This is great for making smoothies in the a.m. I haven't had any problems with it - I use frozen fruit and juice and it works great. The cup is HUGE - I wish it were a bit smaller, say 12 oz. I use this almost every morning and have used it for about 2 mos. and it works fine."
349494,2,Common sense at at last!,"Like many of my girlfriends, I have always found the world of fashion to be a rather exclusive club to which I've somehow be denied membership. Thank you so much Kendall Farr for being a kind, wise and very funny friend! Reading Ms Farr's book is like be taken by the hand by a generous insider and led gently but confidently into a new world where I can at last have a comfortable bra, pants that fit, clothes that flatter and I don't have to feel like a loser for hating thong underwear! Style CAN be for every woman. If you want to look and feel better in your clothes, read this book!"
349565,2,Fun to read.,Just received my copy yesterday and this book is FUN TO READ! Working at creating my first dinner this week. Thanks GreenCross Of Seattle! See you at next years HempFest 2006! Life is better with books like this. I enjoy your sites links too!
349748,2,Excelente seleccion,"Un libro excelente para leer y aprender como entender y desarrollar el ayuno cuidando tu salud para una mejor relacion con Dios , una manera comprencible de desarrollar una de las mas facinantes formas de comunicarnos con Dios."
349766,2,All I expected,"I have had an older model of this same saw for years, and when I wore it out I was looking for another like it at a good price. The only difference between this one and the old one is the tool-less chain adjustment, which I like a lot! It really cuts wood like it's slicing cheese! This was the best price I could find, the shipping was free, so it's all good. My only complaint is with the case. I like to carry extra things in the case, such as head phones, a hatchet, brush and wedges, in addition to the chain oil and extra chains. This case is smaller than my old one, so I used my old one. Also, the case should be flat on top, for a working surface in the field, as is the case with the 18"" saws Poulan makes."
349884,2,For intermediate knitters--not beginners,"This is a nice little reference book. If you've forgotten how to do something or just need a few steps for a reminder, this book shows you how. However, as a beginner, I haven't found it very helpful, because it really doesn't explain the basics. For example, it didn't have enough info to help me figure out knitting in the round, using dual-point needles, or how to do ribbing, even though all three had brief sections in the book. If you are an advanced beginner/intermediate knitter, I think it could be really useful, but it's not the book I would recommend for a beginner."
349892,2,Hollenthon?,"When I first caught wind of this band, I was quite impressed. The double basses were completely captivating, the complete uniqueness of the album was also intriguing. But after a few listens, I realized this isn't all that original. It's simply a re-hash of bands like Hollenthon. However is this a bad thing? HELL NO! The gothic slow rythmes, the quick powerful leads, the amazing drum beats. The mixture of growly death metal vocals and the choral clean vocals is done very tastefully. The problems I came across in this album were the lyrics, they are kind of strange, if you can figure them out :)Check out Little Dreamer, Hero In a Dream, and Goblins' Dance.Truely a tribute to metal."
349897,2,Great chair - perfect for little ones,"This chair was perfect for our family! My daughter is a year old and only 17 pounds, so she barely fits in anything made for her age. When she was six months old she actually fit in this chair (but not the expensive Peg Perego one my mom bought for her house - they have to use pillows to prop my daughter up).I know other reviews have said its hard to clean, but I simply take the cover off and throw it in the washer (at least once every other day). I let it air dry and it looks perfect. Minor wiping cleans the rest.The only problem I have with the chair is that my daughter quickly figured out how to pop off the extra tray covers and flips her food onto the ground. We have to use it without the small covers now.Overall, the color is great and so is its size proportions!Would buy it again and again!"
350000,2,Great!,Very accurate n easy to use. Works well with baby n very easy to move around house to get his weight
350018,2,Imagine Sincerity,"Imagine sincerity when reading this book of thought provoking poetic prose, which seems to leave as much unsaid as said. It's hard to fathom that simplistic, heartfelt expression can find an audience at a time when perspectives blur easily from the debris of cynicism and fanaticism that litter the global landscape, but for those who seek refreshment for a thirsty soul, reading this book will lift the spirits. This is a breezy read and is especially soothing to read aloud to people of all ages."
350120,2,About 'The Trials of Life'.,'The trials of life' is one of the several books written by David Attenborough on similar topic. The book is about living beings (except humans). The book is colorful and it will be nice to keep it in a nice bookshelf. Some of the paragraphs are dull. This is compensated to some extent by excellent color photographs. Some of the pages are sad. Some pages give rise to curiosity. I wish that you will never see this book. By S.B.Ota.
350210,2,TY shark,This shark was purchased for my 13 yr. old granddaughter who is an avid Ty collector and was pursuing this particular shark and was thrilled when I found it for her.
350215,2,kira vs watt....,kira returns with her first album in quite a while with her now ex husband mike watt creating a bass opera.so with there 3rd album together picking up where they left of on there last new alliance realise uno con dos .she is quite a good singer i dont see why she dont get a full band together.i will have to say they are still great together playing kind of a bass ping pong game of conversation but never really running out of any thing to say. there are also a couple of tracks that mike used on his firehose album that makes me remember that she was a co song writer on some of there songs as well.so with mike watts longest running band since the minutemen and kiras only band since black flag this is definatly some old school stuff.just to basses and a lot of things to say not pretenious but lots of fun. so if you like this and want to hear a great interview with the dos of them go to mike watts hootpage and cheak out his pedro show.its a good conversation also....
350245,2,Underrated classic fantasy,"I have been reading science fiction for many years. Most of the time, I do not enjoy pure ""fantasy"" novels, Tolkien being a major exception. This novel is the other major exception. While not as ""deep"" in some ways as Tolkien's work, the mythic and archetypal qualities of the characters are just as moving. The writing is superb, as well. This is more than a book for children! Even if you don't usually like fantasy novels, try this one!"
350271,2,Works well,"This blade cuts well and true without leaving many, if any, splinters. I just got done building a deck with it and I could not be happier."
350320,2,Flayderman's Antique American Firearms Guide,"Lots of info. Black and white photos, could use more color photos. Would like to see a section of accessories, holsters, etc. But all in all a very nice guide book."
350330,2,Helpfull with other sources,"I do like this book since it does cover a lot of material for the paralegal which helps with leagal research and writing. The problem is in the writing style of the text, it truly will make you fall asleep. There are alsop a lack of useable diagrams when it come to writing law office memos. The formats however are presented rather well and I would reccomend this text to a paralegal to use as a reference but look into other materials which help aswell such as QUICK STUDY LAW LEGAL WRITING BAR CHART."
350344,2,Super Book,"I think that this is a super book, both for the recipes and the information. The chapters are divided by food type and health benefits. There is also a helpful ""pantry list"" at the front of the book. Most of the recipes I have tried have been excellent; and I felt good about eating them after reading about the benefits to my body. The only complaint I have had is that some of the recipes have tasted rather bland - a bit too ""healthy"". However, you can always make alterations to adjust the taste to your liking."
350378,2,Bernadette,"Highly recommend this movie,it'll be a treasure for your home monie collection for years to come."
350399,2,"Awesome, super clean feeling",I love this stuff! Your face gets super clean without getting dried out (I don't know how they do that!) and the bottle lasts forever. I have had a lifelong battle with acne (I'm in my 30s and the battle rages on) and this has been a tremendous help.
350415,2,This Dvd is God,I own the UltimateKylie and live in Sydny as well as fever. I really think this one is the best. It has such a theatrical flare to it. I just can't stop watching it. I wish kylie minogue would marry me. that would rule. ok buy it.
350460,2,NIce,This is a great little/big calculator.Very attractive too. lol.Came quicklyI expected to be a bit bigger. But worked out well.Thank you.
350467,2,Great food processor ...,"This is a great food processor of the perfect size for dishes I cook for my family of three. But Amazon offers the choice of Items ""frequently bought together"" this : Cuisinart 3-Cup Food Processor Duet Attachment, White by Cuisinart $34.00. This accessory is for a Cuisinart BLENDER, not for this little food processor. Sign me disappointed."
350537,2,Read before you buy,"I believe this book is an excellent reference material to be read by any one even thinking about buying a rottweiler whether they want a puppy or an adult. It will better help you understand what type of dog the breed is and what is required of you as an owner to raise a well behaved and happy rottie. The book explains the breed to you, gives advise on what will be required of you to raise a happy, healthy, well adjusted rottie. One that will be excepted by the public and will be a loved well mannered part of your family. It explains all aspects of owning, raising, and training a rottie in clear simple form that any one will be able to understand and apply to their own new found friend. So if your interested in owning a rottweiler take the time to read this book and make sure their the dog for you before you buy that cute adorable puppy."
350615,2,great thermometer,"I got this as a gift for a couple with a cabin. They loved it, it's not only functional but looks great in a window!"
350665,2,insufficient menus,"Turbotax was a great service, but I would like to be able to navigate with menus/tabs to a greater degree of specificity within the input pages itself. Writing the return often requires back-tracking to a page that you alread covered.To get to a particular prior page, I would often be forced to go through up to 5 or 6 prior pages, reading the question each time because turbotax highlighted the default which was not my previous choice. This was a colossal waste of time in an otherwise excellent product. It could easily be fixed in the 2006 software if turbotax 1) switched the defaults to the users' previously-inputted values (CompleteTax does this and it seems like an obvious thing to do) and/or made it easy to navigate to a prior page by giving a link to every input page when a user clicks a superior tab or link. This is what a good web-page does, and it would be very helpful if turbotax did the same."
350686,2,Very good case!,It fits and protects camera nicely but is still slim enough to carry easily in a small purse. Very nice case for the price.
350775,2,Very good for the price,I bought this mouse pad because it is very cheap. It works great with my Microsoft basic optical mouse. The pad is slightly slippery so your mouse will glide more than the average mousepad because the surface of this mousepad is hard. I like this though because my mouse moves faster. The only downfall is that the edges are kind of sharp and I sometimes scratch my arm because I keep my mousepad near the edge of my desk. If you keep your mousepad stationary near the middle of your desk then you will have no problem.
350810,2,Naruto just keep's gitting better and better,"The long wait is finaly over one of naruto's favorite characters is finaly here,Sasuke is back with new powers and a new look and naruto is ready to take him back to the village but sasuke isn't ready to go back just yet he still has some business to take care of.For naruto and his team thats not an option,trust me this dvd has some good episodes you wont be disappointed."
350820,2,some of sevendust's best songs,"the best songs on this album (and, in my opinion, sevendust's best songs ever) are the slow ones, xmas day and angel's son. these are the 2 tracks that really stand out to me, and it's worth getting this album just for them. live again is another good slow one. but there are some great harder songs, too, such as t.o.a.b. and praise. most of the songs are a mixture of slow and hard parts. unfortunately, some of them are either only pretty good, or sound too similar to other songs on the album (and they just don't stand out). overall, this album is better than most other albums that came out at around the same time or since then, and sevendust is one of the better bands around today."
350864,2,A great secondary cable for the money,"If you need a secondary cable for home or office use but don't want to spend extra money for an apple logo, this one is the choice for you. It charges and syncs my iPod touch flawlessly, not to mention for less than two dollars, it's also retractable. How much more value would you expect?"
350988,2,A Must for Military Spouses,"This book is an excellent resource for military spouses. It helps to identify the feelings we go through when they are leaving and while their gone as well as how to work through these feelings and know that others go through them too. As an AFTB instructor for the Army I use this as a resource when teaching 1.06 Impact of the Mission on Family Life. It's also a great teaching tool on how to communicate with each other while he's gone, and how to get your relationship back on track once he returns. I strongly recommend this book to all military spouses."
351017,2,"well built, affordable quality.","use very little so far, but it appears well built, and a good value for the money."
351068,2,"great machine, dreadful manual","My husband and I love the machine and use it regularly. The info displayed helps keep us motivated, the tension is easy to control, and we get a very effective workout.The manual is probably the worst one I have seen written by a native speaker of English. It is unclear and inaccurate. For example, it tells you to press ENTER, and there is no enter key. The instructions are almost useless. They need a detailed list of which buttons to press and in what order for each program. Sometimes I find what I want by accident, but mostly I stick with the basic program.The instructions for assembling it also were hard to follow. The diagrams were small and difficult to decipher. It would have been helpful to have labelled each piece (some were labelled, but not all)."
351088,2,Excellent well designed brake pads,"Have used these brake pads on a Chrysler van in the Rockies, Caddy SRX in TN, and on a Subaru Tribeca. Low dust, no squeals, no chatter and excellent stopping power. Center groove helps eliminate any water. Nice long life. Chrysler van showed hardly any wear after a 6,000 mile trip through the Rockies."
351089,2,Well Satisfied,An over the door pulley was recommended by my physical therapist to increase range of motion for my frozen shoulder syndrome. This product comes closest to the exact one used in physical therapy rehabilitation center. It is easy and fast to set up and use. Well worth the money and with free shipping and handling it can't be beat. I priced others that cost more than twice the amount that did not include free shipping and handling. All I can add is that it works!
351141,2,"miles and me , and me too .","voila le livre comporte un fabuleux passage où l'on découvre que au delà des critiques les musiciens communiques et son humain et consciens de leurs faiblesse , mais ils ne peuvent se battre contre certaine chose qui sont au-delà de leur seul capacité .A lire pour le passage stratosphérique sur Mc coy tyner ."
351146,2,A Must For Fans,Like many other adventures Of Beavis & Butthead this one is surely a winner. Any Beavis & Butthead fan should have this one even if you are not very familiar with B & B this is a good place to start.
351159,2,Good overview of the WTC story - some photos would help,"I found the first half of this book a fascinating and detailed account of the 9/11 World Trade Center tragedy and its immediate aftermath. The book takes you many places the news accounts didn't, and reveals some pretty amazing facts (e.g., there were actually people inside the buildings who survived the collapse). The second half, where he delves into the bureaucracy surrounding the demolition and recovery efforts is interesting but less dramatic.The book has one serious flaw though - other than a crude map of the site inside the cover, there are no photographs or illustrations at all. Even just a ten-page insert with some photos of the key people and places he describes would be a huge improvement. Trying to tell a story of this magnitude with text alone is a noble effort, but it falls short."
351162,2,Memories,"I remember seeing this movie when I was a child and I have waited for it to come out on DVD so I can buy it. True, it is NOT TRADITIONAL but I believe the message is just the same, if not more. It is by far my favorite stop animation Christmas movie, with Nestor the Long-Eared Donkey coming in a close second. They bring back sweet memories of my childhood and make this season even more magical."
351170,2,Very good book!!,"I like the way this book is put together but it only has 150 dog breeds. It lists everything you need to know about the breeds in a concise format. The only other thing that I can think of that it could use is a few pages that has all the dog breeds and even smaller details such as weight, height, area of origin, date originated, and other things like that. So that way you wouldn't have to read through the whole book if for example you wanted a small dog. It could save alot of time. Other than that this is the best book I have ever seen. Nothing has been missed with the breeds in this book."
351228,2,Truly an Extremely Funny and Entertaining Show,"We recently went with 10 close friends to see ""Spark of Insanity"" in concert. All of us were sore from laughing hysterically throughout the show, with tears running down our cheeks. Jeff Dunham is a comedic genius!"
351237,2,Fabulous,One of the funniest and most original entertainers I have seen in years. Bravo and Bravo for Achmed. Just too funny.
351262,2,Good sport watch,"I bought this watch to replace my old Casio digital watch. I do workout during the weekend and I found it is very useful when timing laps. The memory can hold 30 laps which is good enough for me. It is light and well-designed. It can fit my wrist comfortably when jogging and swimming. In general, I like it very much. I think my next watch will be a Timex, too."
351318,2,"Funny, especially the first half of the book","I enjoyed the levity over what is in reality a serious problem for many. Rebecca Bloomwood was adorable in this book. She couldn't help over-shopping and tried to talk herself out of it, but invariably talked herself into it. Shopping was ruining her life. Her life was filled with anxiety because there was no foreseeable way to get on top of her bills or stop shopping.I didn't feel Luke Brandon was a realistic character only because he was such a knight in shining armor to the extent that he was. Rebecca seemed realistic though, and that's what counts. Luke served a purpose in that he got her to use her talents, honed during years of hardcore shopping. The first half of the book was fun when the wonderful solution was not in reach and there was constant suspense."
351383,2,Raw,This movie is raw! Watch it with friends but make sure your ready for some of this and some of that
351421,2,Mainline Incompleteness with this Book!,"I highly recommend this title because it supplys all the necessary proofs for a nuts and bolts understanding of incompleteness, including incompleteness proofs for Peano arithmetic and the unprovability of consistency.This title is a difficult read but the only prerequisite is a familiarity of first-order logic equivalent to a one semester college course.A lot of the proofs are based on new material and are easier to understand than the original work by KG.An added benefit is the exercises. They are not impossible and aid in one's understanding.This book is well worth the work in demands."
351450,2,The TV show should be written this well,We get to see part of federation history aboard a ship that didn't have a successful engine design. Years later Trip and Hoshi hope to prevent the same from happening while captured aboard an alien ship. Stern has a good grip on the characters. It's almost like a two part TV episode. The overall feel of the book is just like the show. Now if only the producers would hire Dave Stern to write for the Enterprise show.
351451,2,The Best Enterprise Book to Date,I found Enterprise Daedalus to be a refreshing and entertaining read. The book features only two of the main characters after the first 50 pages. The Enterprise is captured by an alien species the Denari and only Trip and Hoshi escape and are rescued buy some other Denari who are fighting the ones who took the Enterprise. This is set against a back drop of the flight of an earier than Enterprise starship Daedalus that exploded on its maiden voyage some 15 years before. The story has an interesting twist at the end. One thing that was noticably different about this novel was the absence of a B story or plot.
351478,2,One of the best toys by leapfrog,"My son was 6 months old when he got this toy, he is now almost 10 months old and he loves it. He spent lots of time just sitting on the floor with it when i first got it now he stands right up next to it and plays with it all the time. I would deffinitly recomend this toy to anyone who wants a break from motherhood or fatherhood once in a while."
351522,2,K&H Lectro Soft heated outdoor bed can save a cat's life.,We've been caring for an abandoned cat since June of 2012. This cat was a mess and probably near starving. The difference between the way Thumper looks now compared to when he showed up on our porch is astounding.It's been a particularly cold Michigan winter and I was so worried about Thumper possibly freezing to death. We had a nice soft sides cat shelter and that coupled with the K&H; Lectro heated bed just might have saved Thumper from freezing. We're very grateful to K&H; and heartily recommend this high quality product.
351690,2,2-1/2-Year-Old Loves It,"Our 2-1/2-year old son loves this toy. He loves bouncing around the house and quickly mastered it. It's a little small for him, but he's near the maxiumum age and he's also big for his size. The design is really cute. He loves talking to it, and keeps it near his bed at night. The construction is very durable (at least the membrane is very thick and appears nearly puncture proof)."
351707,2,Picnic Table,"Very well made, much sturdier then expected. The folding mechanism works perfectly and opens easily as well."
351738,2,camera review,"This camera made my 87 year old mother extremely happy! Her identical camera broke after years of abuse. She was devastated as I was taking her to a ballgame in Milwaukee and she needed to take pictures. She is so not DIGITAL!!! I ordered it late and was sure I would not have it in time, but it arrived really really fast and she got it! By the way it was in as good or better condition than her old one.Thanks to all who made that happen!!!Sincerely,Carol J.. Gums"
351764,2,Almost perfect,"I bought this as it was listed as the stapler from Office Space, but...after watching it again I noticed there are slight differences :( Oh well. But a great stapler."
351767,2,So much better than the boston it does not bind up.,"they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much..."
351783,2,Great Product,I've had a set of these stones for a couple months now. I've found them to be great for truing up hand planes and for sharpening chisels and plan blades.
351786,2,Mr.,If you like keeping your knives and tools sharp without much effort this is the stone for you. I have the fine stone and it does a great job but takes longer to achieve what I need.
351799,2,Classy and solid.,"The finish is a textured black metal, with slightly gold-tinged accents. The stapler has lots of heft, as expected of a solid-metal beauty like this---no plastic or ugly shiny finish here! It's an all-around superb piece of hardware that fully justifies the price."
351818,2,Best series,"I think that this is the best series of hers yet.It outshines Immortals and Protector of the small by a landslide. It's about Alanna who goes to the castle to become a knight of the realm.She disguises herself and acts like all the others. She is faced with many challenges from the black city people to duke rodger. she also learns many new things about life, love ,and friendship. This is a superb series so read it."
351843,2,Purely breathtaking...,"This Canadian 3 piece is no joke. Mare's debut EP is so infectious, there will never be a remedy. Bands like Neurosis, Isis, and The Melvins have been mentioned in previous reviews, but you can't excuse elements of jazz and The Beach Boys. I haven't heard songs with such magnitude, power and diversity in years. The last album to really touch a nerve in a similar way for me was AENIMA by Tool.Tyler Semrick-Palmateer (former singer of The End) truly shines through out. Here's a man who sounds so vomitous and who's screams make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up (picture Phil Anselmo and Chino Moreno having a bastard son) and then slithers right into beautiful soprano moments and Beach Boy-esque harmonies. And his guitar playing is fantastic as well. Intricate chords and huge riffs make him no slouch whatsoever.A forward progress in the oversaturated landscape of heavy music, while the others are left far behind picking their jaws up off of the floor. BUY THIS NOW!!!"
351847,2,The best cooking gift I ever received,"My mother gave me this book 30 years ago ""So you'll never go hungry..."" It has been a constant companion ever since. It has been with me on 4 continents and I keep it with me still. It's old and tattered and had so many spills a friend's dog chewed the corner that sat in beef drippings one night. I've won awards cooking Rich Apple Pie and the Banana Nut bread never fails to sell fast at bake sales. The whole thing is so intuitive and well organized and there's something for every occasion and every ingredient. After you work with this one for a few years, you start to get a feel for HOW to cook, since all the recipes are so sensible and logical, if I can use those words. And I LOVE LOVE LOVE the fact that they specified lard and butter and flour and all those good things that are supposed to be so bad for you. Add my voice to those who are begging for a reprint."
351880,2,pretty good,"This does a pretty good job of getting the juice out of the orange, lemon..... the only thing it doesn't do very well is keep the pulp out."

351927,2,MR.SPATS CAT a COMB,"Over the years I continue to purchase Mr.Spats Cat a Comb, and over the years I continue to have one Major criticism of this otherwise ""unique""and ""most worthwhile product"". THE VELCRO!!! This company should definitely change their Velcro to ""INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH"" Velcro, since the Velcro they enclose with the product is good for nothing. Their Velcro eventually pulls away from the wall or wherever it is placed, causing a half-on the wall - half-off the wall Cat a Comb. I purchaed some industrial strength velcro, removed the pads that come with the wall comb, and now everybody is happy...especially my fur-babies. D-CAT-LOVER"
351951,2,Great Wipers,"After spending a ton of money on Rain-X wipers last year I thought I would take another approach. Given that even the best ($$$$) wipers do not seem to last more than a year I thought I would try these lower cost wipers. They work fantastic. No difference from last year when I installed my $$$$ Rain-X wipers. These Bosch (Excel+) wipers look very well made and seem very sturdy. I think they will easily make it a year. If they don't I will update this review. So far they perform very well and are a great value. For my Honda Civic, it took no more than 20 seconds for each wiper to install. The default connectors worked perfect for my car. The blades come with all sorts of adapters to fit other cars."
352012,2,Excellent Book,This the best book I ever seen on PL/SQL programming. It is good for beginners as well as for experience programmer for reference. Book layout is also good.
352041,2,A Must Have,"Truly a wonderful travel guide. This is a must have for your adventures in Amazing Thailand. This book gives you all the information you need, when you pack for your vacation this will be the only travel reference you will need to take with you. A valuable tool in exploring Bangkok and the surronding regions. The maps inside helped us get back to our hotel on more than one occasion, a definate life saver and an essential necessity."
352048,2,Good DVD,"It's a good DVD, however the sound quality as some people have suggested, is not the greatest. I have heard better quality sound on Peter Gabriel Concert DVD which was recorded way back in 1994. They should have done a better sound recording on this concert.. and I would love to hear it in DTS."
352113,2,A Classical Christmas,"I bought this cd several years ago and for one reason or another, it set on the shelf untouched till now. Well, I finally pulled it down and listened to both cd's. It is a wonderful colection of classical Christmas music performed by great artists, musicians and vocalists. There is a good mix of traditional and symphonic music included. The titles I most enjoyed are those performed by the Kings Choir at Cambridge. Be asured, those beautiful treble voices will push your sound system to it's upper limits! This cd will make a terific addition to your Christmas cd collection: enjoy!"
352171,2,"Short, but very sweet","Stereo Nights track 1 is amazing! Excellent vocoders, really catchy. The second song is sort of like filler and seems to be misplaced.The 3rd and last track is just the drum track for Stereo Nights, and it shows off Takkyu Ishino's knack for getting the percussion juuuuust right (and it's great for getting some drum samples too)."
352173,2,Satisfied customer review,"I am very satisfied with the Pro Performance Riveted Brake Shoes as they were the correct ones for my vehicle, they are of a high quality and the price was very reasonable for a top of the line, performance brake shoe. They arrived quickly and fit perfectly. I highly recommend this product."
352188,2,She's great!,"ohhh my god! i only want to say that Nika is a great great singer!! she's the best! she have her particular style in pop-rock with some influence of Sheryl Crow and Jewel; but when you listen her voice with a acustic guitar...ufff! no words to describe that! she only know how to cautivate the public... is magic!! So, buy her new album, Quien dijo que era el fin, because it's so so great!!! (5 stars!) I recommended. Thank you."
352283,2,Quality cedar shoe trees!,These are top-notch shoe trees. Fit like a glove and keeps your shoes looking like new. Easy in and out. They smell good too! I bought three pairs and glad I did.
352302,2,Good price. Good Product,"The camera does everything described in literature. Easy to use right out of the box. Software is easy to load on puter. Photos are good but definitely snap shots, not gallery quality. Camera operating procedures are easy. Instructions are clear."
352326,2,A great cd from the late 80's,This has got to be one of my most favorite tapes from when I was just a young girl exploring the songs of love. And hoping for it someday while listening to these tunes. I love this cd!!
352354,2,A Lovely Read,Jenny Pollack's Klepto is a really light lovely read. It's a wonderful and insightful look into those troubling teenage years. Pollack did a fantastic job of capturing so much of what a teen is going through while still writing for a much broader audience.
352397,2,Could be real life,"I really enjoyed the movie, it even had a cliff hanger at the beginning. He haw just a average guy that had to cope with new intelligence... A lot of people wanted it, and he coped with it and won basicly. There was excitment adventure, and sex."
352404,2,"Familiar storyline, well redone","Very creative spin on a familiar story line. Unlock the potential of the human brain. What's creative you ask? Typically it is suggested that once the brain is working at full capacity, the subject has unlimited learning potential. As in, the subject can acquire large amounts of NEW information. What's new about Limitless is that the subject is able to unlock information already acquired through encounters and life experiences. Very cool.This movie has a strong cast and is well acted. Very well done and great dialog. Highly recommend!"
352565,2,Not Ur Typical Friday the 13th Sequel,"I was getting ready to start my Freshman yr. of high school when this movie came out. I was shocked by how good it was, it had a plot, and great actors to make this a great film. The slasher flicks were taking off in the 80's and even though I didn't like most of the Friday sequels, I have to say 1,2, 6 are the best. I will say 4-The Final Chapter had the shock value that will make Ur pulse race. If Ur looking 4 a Friday the 13th movie that has it all pt. 6 is Ur movie, and U will not be disappointed.THX,-Kris L. CocKayne-"
352587,2,Fresh perspective,"This book tells the story of the Italians from a completely fresh perspective on their accomplishments and I recommend it to anyone looking to get on overview of Italian history. There are lots of interesting sidebars that include little known facts about the Italians. Informative, it is well written and researched."
352654,2,From a parent and age group coach,"Eleven of my age group soccer kids completed the 30 workouts in this book in ten weeks. After seeing the improvement in acceleration and speed, the other 8 team members and their parents are sorry they didn't join in. The 30 workouts alone are worth the price of the book. You don't need a sports science background. If you are looking for a ""just do-it"" approach that improves speed in short sprints, this book is for you. The book cuts to the chase. There is no need to dig out anything. Everything that is included is important and the program works."
352755,2,Great trimmer,"I don't have massive amounts of nose hair. I just like to keep everything neat and trim in there.This is my fourth nose hair trimmer. I tried a cheap one from target, Norelco nose and hair trimmer. It broke after about a week. Being as dumb as possible, I ran out and got another one. It broke a week later. So, I went on Amazon and got this one. Groom Mate Platinum XL Nose & Ear Hair Trimmer. Apparently I didn't read it well enough to notice that it is not powered. It works ok, but it feels like it is pulling out your hairs more than cutting them.This trimmer, however, is wonderful. It is a breeze to use and clean up. It doesn't leave a bunch of trimmed hairs in your nose because of that vacuum. I am quite pleased with this product."
352806,2,West Coast Gangsta Rap,"This is an underground track that gets overlooked. The beats are hittin, the lyrics are on point. Feat. Yuk Mouth, Killa Tay,& Marvaless. I recommend this album to any one who loves C-bo---Killa Tay ect, or just rap period..."
352814,2,Timeless Corporate Humor,"I watched and bought it 10 years, or so, ago. It's a keeper, but, I lost my copy. Now it is rare, but I found it again! Buy it if you can...I just did. The words below from another reviewer ring so TRUE!""This movie has so many funny lines and situations. If more people were aware of it, it would surely become a cult classic. So check it out and pass the word."""
352892,2,I'm smilin....,"I was a bit skeptical, but this an easy affordable option that had a wonderful outcome. The book got to me in three or four days, and was in really good condition. I look forward to my next purchase! (I got the book for less than half of what I would've paid retail... including shipping!) If you can wait a few days for your book, go this route!"
352935,2,Genius!,"This large print dictionary makes word-finding unbelievably easy! It has large print so that words can be found quickly. And it's perfect for those who have a hard time seeing. It's not that hard to find a word because whereas with smaller, finer print dictionaries in which the words are all so compacted to fit into a 500+ page book and are much smaller, this book has them printed much larger and yet still has a lot to translate."
352937,2,Excellent,This is a fine recording of two of Dvorak's best known chamber works. Both pieces are warm and performed with clarity and precision.
352993,2,"Great Deal, imperfections and all.","We looked all over for simple, affordable TV tables and this price can't be beat. The wood is neutral and so looks fine in our living room, and it's nice that it's solid and natural. Two of the four tables arrived with cracks, but given the weight and hassle of exchanging them we opted to glue them. The legs looked too close together to suport the broad weight on top, but so far there's been no problem. The stand assembly was simple; I never could get it level but the weight of the tables in the stand seems to compensate for the slight wobble. Still, we love them and use them daily. I mean, for $29 I didn't expect perfection!"
353155,2,Great Facial Softener,"This is a great product to use in the winter. Helped me stay moisturized through cold, winter months. Works very well with the whole Shisiedo skin care and make up line."
353203,2,review of beast wars by jw,"I thought this game was very fun.It is a game for kids that watch the show on tv.this is agame suitable for kids that are 8,9, and ten.the game is like army men3d."
353227,2,love it,"well made, high quality pot. I use couple of times so far. love it. only one little problem is the hole in the cap is little small. so if you pour you coffee too fast, it will drip, so you have to pour little slow. any way it is good pot, easy to use and clean."
353229,2,Pretty basic,"If you are familiar with the concept, no surprises here. I don't use it for my normal morning coffee, but rather a more precious time, such as hunkering down with a book, or a nice long read of the Sunday paper. The HIC milk frother is a perfect combination to make something seem really special at home."
353240,2,quietude for a searching mind,All That You Are is a source of quietude in a world gone mad and frenzied. It can be a readable companion as valuable as The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran or The Book of Tao Te Ching. All That You Are is as uplifting as II Corinthians and as profound as Jonathon Livingston Seagull.
353270,2,Good buy and solid product ~~,"As with the other struts already reviewed, these live up to Monroe's good name and the price at Amazon is quite fair for the product."
353304,2,Fun for kids,"My kids have a great time with this (ages 7 and 5), and we've found some fun ""treasures"". Just wish it were a little more user-friendly."
353342,2,pathfinder bike attachment,"My daughter is 6 and we live in the country with no access to level ground to learn to ride a bike. This attachment has been great. She not only is learning to keep her balance, but she can also keep up with me. With training wheels, it was impossible. She loves it, and I love it.It isn't hard to ride or handle. I thought that it would be hard for me to maintain my balance, but it isn't. I would recommend this item to anyone who has a child; who for whatever reason needs trainig wheels or is too young to keep up."
353381,2,Cozy Coupe,Every child needs a Cozy Coupe and I purchased this for my two year old grandson and he loves it. Had some problems with assembly but managed.
353427,2,The BEST air Purifier for the money!,Great value per square footage & quiet. Perfect for smaller rooms.
353479,2,Convient and Easy,"This is a great piece of mind, easy to use safty product this provides a little piece of mind. I hope to never use it!"
353515,2,Kept my gate opener from being stolen.,Some fool tried to steal my gate opener and the two locks I had did the job. The lock was a little bent but the thief that tried to steal my Mighty Mule gate opener had to move on to his next crime victim.
353529,2,Husband's birthday presenet,"These houseslippers are just perfect for my husband! He wore his last slippers for about 6 years and was quite ""attached"" to them. :) The reviews on this shoe indicated to me that they could be his next beloved pair and might last even longer! He loves them even more than the last!"
353678,2,mannix/Mike Connors: THE BEST!,"I was a huge fan of the show when it originally aired and I'm finding it even more entertaining now with the release of the first season. The format of the first season may have been different from the rest, but the Mannix character was as tough, charming, and clever as ever. Mike Connors was believable delivering a punch, charming the ladies, or being a wise-guy. I can't wait for the remaining 7 seasons!"
353696,2,Portable DVD Review,This was a seamless transaction. A+ seller. The product has worked out well for us.
353723,2,eBook option is great!,I'm so glad eBook options are starting to be available for textbooks. It beats carrying heavy books around and increases the chances of having it near me when I'm in a reading mood.
353783,2,Almost 5 stars,"Lots of fun!! We really enjoy this game. My husband and I compete at everything and with this we can program easy levels for the kids while we play the hardest level, all together. I would have given 5 stars if it had a volume control and an on/off switch. It has a timer so if you don't play in 5 mins (or something) it shuts itself off and you ""wake"" it up by pressing any button. Not practical for my taste but definately not a deal breaker! Would buy agian!"
353792,2,Best Mixer on the Market,There is no other mixer I would buy after having used this KitchenAide because there is no comparison. It has made my life easier since I have a permanent injury to my arm and cannot mix anything by hand. I have recomended this mixer to everyone and they are just as happy with their purchase. I really enjoy baking and not just around the Holidays.
353825,2,"Love it, but...","I've had a 4.5 qt KitchenAid for 25 years, and decided to give it to my daughter (who's thrilled!) and buy a slightly bigger model. I love it for baking and especially for making bread. Unfortunately, less than a month after receiving my new mixer, while mixing bread dough, the beater started to slow down and a slight burning smell was noticeable, which was disconcerting, to say the least. However, when I called the KitchenAid customer service number, they were very helpful, and I received a new mixer within days, with a prepaid shipping label to return the defective item. So, I would give this 5 stars for customer service, and 4 stars overall, because I'm hopeful that my new mixer will be back to the standard I expect for a KitchenAid mixer!"
353902,2,As Heard on XM 78 'Escape' - A Different Sound to Christmas,"I first heard this interesting Christmas music on XM channel 78 - ""Escape"", and it defies description. You want to put it into the 'new age' category, yet it still has a 'beautiful music' instrumental sound to it. It's hard to tell if it's electronic or acoustic. Whatever, the case may be, the tracks are quite good, and fairly long for Christmas songs (some around the 4 minute mark) when other albums have little 2 minute versions. It's worth listening to several times. Season's Greetings."
353918,2,Poor quality,"The thing did well for a while. It has no tuner, but you can run cables from other places. The dvd player often stops in the middle of the movie and no way can I restart it. Other times, it displays just snow. I thought it was a bad dvd but the disk works fine on other players. Toshiba had problems with this a while back, but it is still junk. This will be my last Toshiba product."
353937,2,think one thing see another,In this story the girls of the Saddle Club realize that they might just have to give something ( or someone I should say ) a chance! But when not giving this person a chance they were also having fun and that's the important thing. This book really comes alive and I recommend it to Saddle Club fans!
353979,2,A must for the student of Islamic knowledge,"These forty hadith were chosen by Imam An-Nawawi for their coverage of the religion. Jamaal Zarabozo has done a fine job of expounding on these hadith to bring out their fruits.He collects the opinions of classical as well as contemporary scholars to give a comprehensive understanding of Islam. You will find in the book aspects of the Islamic Belief, Islamic Jurispudence, Prophetic Sayings, Explanation of the Noble Quran and other Islamic subjects.Good to read on your own but even better to study with a teacher and great for Islamic Studies."
353999,2,Excellent & balanced resource,"This is a really great guide to dealing with fibroids and it gives you a wide variety of options in dealing with this condition. I agree that it is very balanced between scientific and holistic methods of healing. However, I do think you need to read this book AND then go to a healing practitioner (MD, nurse practioner or alternative practitioner) who has experience in dealing holistically with fibroids to guide you in what is best for you. But this book is a wonderful educational resource and guide and I highly recommend it!"
354168,2,Very Pretty Bowls,The bowls are very attractive(to me anyway). Thank god not one of them was broken when I opened the box. Hopefully if I take good care of them they will last a long time without chipping.(Only time will tell)
354173,2,You can spend more but...,These are decent gloves for the money. Dexterity is decent - the gloves don't slide on your hand like traditional work gloves - but the stitches at the fingertips make delicate work impossible.One the other hand I now handle raw lumber with wild abandon and no fear of splinters. I'd definitely buy them again.
354176,2,Good Stuff,"The price was right. I had to pull the engine out of my 66 LeMans so I got this hoist. Got here in a box that was tore up but all the parts were there. Put it together in bout 30 min or less. It worked great with all the adjustments on it. One of the other main reasons that I got this one was that it kind of folds up and you can roll it into a corner without taking up too much room. I would recommend the hoist highly great product for the price, gotta love it."
354214,2,Better Than Expected,"Much better than I expected given the small amount of information available. The commentary is excellent but the pictures really make for a great resource. A large number of these images I've seen no where else while researching the Battle of Midway. I'd gladly recommend this book to anyone seeking info on the Yorktown, Battle of Coral Sea, or Battle of Midway.G. Alvin Simons"
354233,2,Now if they'd stop charging a premium for Mac users.,"Regarding the C-Dilla issue... this is the statement from Intuit, makers of TurboTax. Keep in mind, it was never in the Mac software anyway.""In response to customer feedback, we have removed the technology from TurboTax 2003 products. In addition, Intuit is changing its policy and updating the TurboTax software license agreement, enabling customers to use TurboTax software to install, prepare, file and print multiple returns for themselves and their family from multiple computers.""I've always found TurboTax to be a very good product. If this C-Dilla issue proves to have been resolved, it may be again. However, their insistance that they need to charge a 25% premium for the Mac version is just foolish."
354257,2,Good but not her best.,"I really enjoy Lisa Kleypas books. She gets the chemistry right and her characters are all strong. I liked ""It Happened One Autumn"" and ""Then Came You"" better."
354272,2,Christian Priorities,"You need to know that this is a book about Christianity, which I did not realize when I bought it. No problem, as I am a Christian, but I was surprised by the content once I started reading. It was a good thing. I was looking for advice on reining in our materialistic lives, and I found it here. He does not make the reader feel bad if they are not dirt poor, but makes very lucid suggestions for how to live your life with or without financial means. This is a great follow-up to Rick Warren's Purpose Driven Life (still the best Christian life guide I have ever read)."
354275,2,Did not Disappoint,"The Thin Blue Line did not disappoint at all. It was fabulous & hilariously funny just as I remembered. I just wish they were more series. Why oh why did they cancel the show. We want more Fowler, Goody, Habib et al and of course the gys from CID, all of them. I loved and will enjoy it each time I watch them. There is no comedy like Bristish COmedy and the writer of this show is bordering on genius.The Thin Blue Line - The Complete Line-Up"
354373,2,Should you buy this?,"Red rescue team is a pretty good game, but I myself prefer the classic type pokemon games like pokemon sapphire and leaf green. (As well as the Blue, Gold, etc.) Red rescue team is a different experience where you are the pokemon. It depends on several factors if you should spend your money on this item. Looking at other reviews, younger kids love this game. So it depends what age group you are getting this for. Kids under 11 ""can't put it down"" maybe that's a bad thing... I still gave it 4 stars, but would rather spend my money on the new pokemon game coming out for the DS. Another factor may be which handheld you have. DS~Blue and GBA~Red I only have red so I don't know any plot differences between the two."
354462,2,Wonderful debut collection.,"Other Fish In The Sea' is a smart, moving, always surprising, and lovingly written collection of short stories that add up to a novella. Elly Fisher is the main character, a woman searching for love in all the wrong places -- even in time -- who comes to understand not only love but herself in the end. It's plain-spoken in beautifully observed language and detail. The marvelous thing about Elly and the other characters that populate the book is that Kusel doesn't contrive to make them artifically witty or hip -- unless they are. Instead the characters reflect real people: some damaged, some maturing, all people in process of becoming. The PW review here is all wrong and says more about the reviewer's need to read about fashionable 'chick lit' characters who aren't real, than being able to accept Kusel's characters who are. 'Other Fish in the Sea' is more lit than chick, and in the end it will move you and make you think ... and feel. I can't wait for the movie"
354482,2,dukes of hazzard/season 4,"this is an excellant package of the fourth season. it contains 9 dvd's with 27 episodes and additional information dukes fans will enjoy. the price was very reasonable, making this an exceptional buy."
354495,2,Ahead of it's time!,"I have always thought that this film was ahead of it's time with talk of abortion and child murder. Given the times we live in now with the Susan Smiths of the world, it gives one pause to watch this film as an omen. Child care, latch key children, the Muenchhausen by proxy theory and countless other issues this film raises were perhaps TOO controversial for it's day. Today, just another headline.I hate to see this film lumped in with quick paced horror/slasher films. It simply doesn't warrant that dismissal.Not to mention this is arguably Ms. Davis' most restrained film performance of it's day.Watch, learn and respect a little gem in cinema that I think has been unfairly dismissed as a ""guilty pleasure"""
354507,2,Both A and B level people share stories,"At first I thought this book wouldnt be that great because there are a lot of names that I didnt recognize when looking at the index of people interviewed. However, that is because a lot of the names are the behind the scenes people who may not be 'names' unless you study the credits at the end of movies. There are some very interesting stories here. There is one good interview where a guy indicates how he screwed people all the way to the top of his field and later himself was screwed by someone he trusted. Payback. Karma. I hated that guy, but Im glad he told the truth. Each interviwed person is shown in a photograph. This is a well crafted book, done in a simple way and it works."
354570,2,Cool Album,"I first heard of STROKE 9 after seeing their video on the Jay and Silent Bob DVD, and I like the song and video and bought their latest CD RIP THIS OFF, after seeing them do an in-store performence at Tower Records in San Francisco. My girlfriend really likes this band and she was the one who got me into listening to them. The songs have some cool melodies and this album NASTY LITTLE THOUGTHS is real easy to listen to. I like their music and find their songs catchy and always something I can listen to anytime. The songs that I like off this album are:LETTERS, CITY LIFE, LITTLE BLACK BACKPACK, WASHIN + WONDERIN', ARE YOU IN THIS?, NOT NOTHIN', DOWN, ANGELS, and TEAR ME IN TWO. They dont sound as polished here as they do on their followup, but that doesnt take away from their songs and the quality of this disc. They are a good band that makes good songs and they seem to have a loyal fan base. I think that rock fans will enjoy this album"
354577,2,Better than wandering,"It would be next to impossible to find these places on your own. Even more impossible to learn as much about each of the sites as is presented in this guide. Each tour follows a logical route and there are plenty of stops that you probably never would have thought of--eg. Serpico's apartment, the former site of Thomas Wolfe's East 8th St. apartment. Using this guide is a great way to see the Village, East and West. And the insight will keep you reading even as you're moving to the next stop. Take your time. Spread the tours over a couple of afternoons. And linger for a while in Washington Square.A great companion to this book is ""The Beat Generation in New York."" I wouldn't recommend carrying this heavy book around with you, but after you've finished the tours, open the book to look at the pictures taken at many of the places you've just visited."
354650,2,ADRIAAANNN,well its out at last ...i really wanted to get this pack in BluRayhavent gotten the pack in my hands yet but having seen all the Rocky movies i am pretty excited to own them on Bluray.cant comment on the Bluray features but the films have made a name in the movie history for themselves and loudly speak for themselves.if you are in to sport movies and havent seen this series you should definetely give it a shot :D
354660,2,Great hoodie,I ordered this for my 9 year old son. It arrived quickly and in perfect condition. It fits my son nicely w/room for layering. Very soft and warm. Great buy. Great company to work with.
354696,2,"So far, so good",I like my shaver a lot so far but I have had other shavers that were also very nice at first. I wonder if I will still like it 6 months or a year from now.
354739,2,WAs a gift,Was a gift for my father as I remember watching it with him many times as a child. He loves both movies
354760,2,Tom Tran is the missing piece to an epic war story!,"Tom Tran's roll as the village boy sets the standard for movies such as Platoon and Full Metal Jacket. I can only ask: Where were the Academy Award nominations? Good luck Tom, and see you at the movies!"
354804,2,I listen to this every day while travelling.,"This album's a great addition to any musically inclined person's library, and should be required for mandolinists. The players groove together perfectly, the tunes are a great and varied selection, and it's just a pleasure to listen to."
354837,2,Simply remarkable,"This is the best nature series that I've ever seen. The HD brings it to life, and the photography is just astounding. The series has concentrated on flora and fauna rarely seen and some never before filmed. This is a must for any nature lover!"
354842,2,A Must,"If you are even remotely interested in this earth of ours, this series is mind-boggeling. Few things you can pick up and watch so intently; this is one of them. You are there for every climatic change, every season, every sweeping arc on this earth. It is Noah's Ark for the whole Planet.This is the DVD I would take with me if I could only take one!"
354855,2,Stunning!,"I have been a nature documentary fan my whole life. Planet Earth is by far the most mind blowing series to date. They have set the new standard for nature shows.The American versions with Sigourney Weaver are beautiful, but the naration is rather boring and un-eventful. This Blu-Ray/DVD release has the original David Attenborough narration which is truly inspiring.My only complaint is that this Blu-Ray set doesn't have any extras! No commentary or ""Making of Planet Earth"". They really dropped the ball here."
354858,2,planet earth,i received my set of dvds in perfect condition and in a timely matter. i recomend using amazon for any future purchases.
354891,2,By the Author of Corduroy!,"Norman the door-mouse welcomes discriminating rodents to view the paintings and sculptures stored in the basement of the Majestic museum. In his spare time, Norman has his own studio in a knight's helmet, which is also a good hiding place from the security guard! He cleverly uses an old mousetrap to create his own wire sculpture of a mouse swinging on a mousetrap, and enters it into a museum competition. There's a lot of visual humor, and Freeman makes the whole tuxedo-ed affair look fun and interesting, and there's a suspenseful subplot involving the guard trying to find Norman. (No animals were injured in the writing of the book.) There's a nice warm simplicity to Freeman's soft but colorful pastel illustrations; they're drawn with such ease that both they and the story may stimulate your own creative energy. Another excellent book from Freeman!"
354997,2,Terrific alternative to microwave,"Why use an entire large microwave oven to heat a single cup of water for tea or soup or such when you can do it in the same amount of time with less power and waste? This is the third HotShot I've had (my first was in my dorm at college) and the simple design and function make this thing last…well, not forever, but much longer than one would expect at this price.No, you cannot heat milk or soup or coffee or any liquid other than water. And you can't fit a tall mug under the dispenser spout. But other than that, it's great!"
355047,2,Another fine work from Wolfe,"This book pretty much lived up to the glowing reviews I had read. I really enjoyed the sense of mythic drama and world history. His tale of what it takes to be a knight, both in training and spirit, is right on. And, of course, there were dozens of wonderful creatures and settings the like of which you've never seen. That's one of the things I look for in Wolfe.What I didn't like was that so much was left unresolved. There really was no conclusion at all. It just chopped off, as if the editors decided to cut a larger volume in two and arbitrarily chose the end of that chapter to make the cutoff. Wolfe has about six plots going at the end of the novel, and not ONE of them was settled. Perhaps I'm just impatient, but I do like a little closure. I consider this a fault of series in general, rather than Wolfe particular.It was still much worth the read, and I'll be looking for The Wizard when it comes out.Deby Fredericks, author of The Magister's Mask"
355096,2,Droid Tri-Fighter,This is toy is really worth it. It is slightly smaller than the newer one but it comes with a rare buzz droid that does not come with any other set (at least to my knowledge).
355132,2,Great price- perfect for 3rd grade music class,"My son's 3rd grade class needed recorders for the upcoming semester's music class. We had the option to rent from the school but for the price here at Amazon I was able to purchase one. I feel better knowing that if he breaks or loses it (which is a good probablity with my 9 year old), that I can always come back to Amazon and order another one without breaking the bank. The recorder is a nice light green and could be used for either a boy or a girl. It comes with a plastic case to keep the recorder from getting lost or dirty. Overall I am very pleased...now if I had only ordered some ear plugs to go along with it- LOL!!"
355149,2,Hell Destroyer - Full on Heavy Metal Concept Album,"From beginning to end this CD delivers one blistering heavy metal song after another. Peck's vocals are loaded with searing power reminiscent of Rob Halford and sometimes as eerie as King Diamond's. Every aspect of the music is Heavy Power Metal with no sign of flowers or lace. This is definitely leather studded heavy metal through and through. For those of you who like Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, King Diamond, and Primal Fear, you won't be disappointed."
355180,2,The perfect antidote to Outliers,"The perfect antidote to Outliers, this book demonstrates the unavoidable pitfalls to attempting the lifestyle espoused by Outliers. It is possible to be successful AND happy, but not unless you make happiness a goal that you manage as vigorously as you manage success. This is written by a psychologist for the stars, and is filled with both easy to remember anecdotal stories and sound principals which I have observed in the people I consider fabulously successful and yet still completely grounded and approachable."
355236,2,Hard to find at general retail stores,"Have used these filters for daily coffee for over 4 years, and with our extremely hard water, we feel that the coffee really does taste better when brewed using the filter. We're a bit reluctant to replace every 30 batches, as Mr. Coffee recommends, but do replace every 6-8 weeks."
355257,2,PANASONIC Hair trimmer,"Good product.Practical and easy to use and above all SILENT!The voltage could be BIVOLT, mas'só found in 110 volt version.Otherwise, the product is very good.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000F4USF8/ref=cm_cr_rev_prod_title"
355289,2,Wow better than I expected,"Length:: 3:14 MinsThis is one of my favorites now. Good story, great plot twist, not something you would expect to like at first. Highly recommended."
355293,2,Excellent Gift for your Pastor/Bishop/Sister/Brother,I just became a catholic and bought two copies of this book. First was presented to Sister who taught me in RICA. Father at the Parish would not put it down. So I bought him a copy. You will trully enjoy. Peace be with you.
355303,2,A winner!!,Brandt's debut is fluid and engaging. Loved it. I will try to read the next one slower so I don't run through his books too fast.
355313,2,Achtung Baby / Zoo TV = Rock's second Sgt. Pepper ?,"Incredible ! Zoo TV , 12 years on and still holding up strong...IMHO Achtung Baby / Zoo TV was as revolutionary, groundbreaking and mezmerizing to 90s Rock as The Beatle's Sgt. Pepper was in the 60's.Get this DVD."
355349,2,Good asset to potty training,"No one video will do all the work of potty training. My 2.5 year old son enjoyed the video and readily went off to the bathroom to go potty. I think the potty power video is going to help. My son wanted to actually sit on the toilet. He said ""I want big kid."" Good thing his chair converts to an insert and to my surprise, was successful on the toilet (he had previously gone in the potty chair). He remembered all of the steps from the video too (which comically included pulling off vast amounts of toilet paper). Now he's watching the video again."
355376,2,A Good Cllear View,This is set out as a HISTORY of Astrology not as an astrology book . It is beautifully laided out with pictures and boxes and is not set out as an academic text . Gives an interesting look over what was known when and where and with pic's .
355462,2,Great Product,"I haven't had the product long enough to give a thorough review but so far, so good. It has been about three weeks and there is no skipping or dragging. It seems to be a quality product. The sound could be better. But I am very satisfied with this portable DVD player."
355495,2,MAD MEN: Season Five,I have been a MAD MEN fan since the beginning and will continue to buy this series. Who wouldn't want to work with Don Draper?!
355496,2,Cant wait for Season 6 Love Love this wonderful written and acted program,If you want to start this program you must watch it from the very beginning to get the proper sense of whats going on and the dynamics of all involved. This is one of our very favorite programs of all time and cant wait for season 6. This was slow to come out but it was so worth the wait. This reminds my husband of when he was a young teenager and the memories from the 1960's. I think this has special meaning for the baby boomers since they lived through it but the young must realize what has happened in the corporate world and how far we have all come.
355533,2,Trouble free,"I've been using this modem for three years without a hiccup. Although there are newer models available, if you can find a working used version of this modem (and your ISP supports it) it should (hopefully) last for years and cost a lot less than the latest modems."
355754,2,Great item,"This set has some of the best figures to use for the point value, I would reccomend this for anyone starting out or looking for some filler pieces for their team."
355769,2,Great album!,"As a 311 fan of many, many years, this album proves to be just as awesome as their others. There's a definite increase in maturity from one album to the next, and 311 has grown up a lot since their teenage days of Omaha Sessions. This album has a more mellow feel--something that has been more and more prevalent since Soundsystem's release in 1999. I recommend this CD to any 311 fan, and listen out for #7Still Dreaming and #11Jacks Rule The Realm."
355831,2,When's the dvd release?,"Loved this version the first time I saw it. The vhs quality is sadly lacking for such a great film. Please send word , this classic version really deserves to be seen on dvd!"
355834,2,The Sweetest Game of the Century,"SOCOM II is the best game that i have ever played. The graphics are the best that i have ever seen in a fighting game like this one. The online mode is 10x better than the original SOCOM and it has more maps. You can communicate with your team better, and it is more exciting. The only reason why you would stop playing SOCOM II is unless it is time to eat or go to the bathroom."
355936,2,What a fantastic collection!,"This CD made a great gift for my Dad's birthday. Received it super fast, and just in time!"
355957,2,Baby likes it.,"This teether has rubber sides, and smooth plastic sides. Baby can twist it around and have a good time smacking you and himself with it. If you are a nervous wreck that doesn't want to be smacked with a teether, then maybe the knuckleball one would be better for you. But the baby seems to have a good time biting this one and waving it around and smacking himself with it. Baby likes it; it gets on my nerves. But I give it 5 stars because baby likes it."
356042,2,yay,"workaholics. 2 seasons. $10. cant beat that. one of the best shows on tv, bar none. get it while so cheap"
356044,2,Bonneyville,"Great movie! In the category of ""Thelma and Louise""Watch out if you are ordering a discount edition because they send you a new one and charge you full price.I got ripped off!!!!!!"
356051,2,WORKED,"Although this worked, it was not the answer I needed in my instance. But it was inexpensive, so not a big deal. If you have an IDE computer and are trying to use a SATA DVD ROM, then get an HDE SATA to PATA/IDE adapter."
356064,2,Brave Companions,I'm partial to all of McCullough's books. He is one of America's greatest social historians. I absolutely enjoyed this particular book. I would recommend it very highly!
356085,2,Out of Ireland,Very informative. Filled in a lot of gaps in my knowledge of Ireland's history. I plan to share it with my Irish relatives.
356096,2,Always left hanging,"The acting is outstanding. The stories are gritty and true to life. Most aspects of this series are excellent. The constant use of split screen technique...not so much. It becomes distracting and does little to enhance story telling. What hurts this series most are the endings. We are left waiting for some sort of an answer at the end of each and every episode, instead we're left watching that black screen with the credits rolling. Note to Lynda LaPlante ""A little payoff for the audience please, after all the emotional investment in the well drawn characters we want some retribution""."
356103,2,perfect!,It's exactly what I expected! It's a cute little machine and the remote control makes it extra convenient. I use it in my bedroom and it totally does the job. I'm totally impressed and I'm so happy I bought it!
356129,2,Excellent book for beginners,"To people who are entering the profession of consumer lending, this is an excellent primer. It gives a 360 degree view of the business from acquisition and management of accounts to collections, recoveries and profitability analysis. While it doesn't cover any one topic in great depth, it is an ideal book for people starting off in this exciting business. I wish David Lawrence would write many more books. He has the art of explaining concepts in a clear manner. I really enjoyed this book."
356130,2,Touchy Movie,"This film not only touches the heart, but your hand holding a tissue as well! Plot driven and well written throughout every minute. Eye candy for its audiences. Top notch acting from the entire cast, including the child actor. Starts off light and fluffy that keeps you laughing 3/4 of the movie and ends with a bang! Hence the title ""Sad Movie"" and you will see why. Not your typical Hollywood or soap opera melodrama cr**. This movie is not boring at all. Even when I watched it with my guy friends. Trust me and watch this picture with your family and friends."
356143,2,CLASSICS!,"I was worried that I was just foisting fond memories upon my kids, and was not sure if they would like these old cartoons or not...MY KIDS LOVE THEM! Ages 4, 6, & 11."
356189,2,"great deal, great product",Good quality bags for a good price. I am using them to store my jewelry and they work perfectly. Thanks.
356230,2,Andy Serkis - Invisible Genius!,"This engaging and heartfelt book is not only an insider's look at a good few years in the life of an actor, but at his dedication to a role. I've come to admire Serkis for his commitment to his craft, and for his likeability, sincerity, and willingness to give it all in the name of credible filmmaking. As an artist, I truly am awestruck; it's a pity the book tour does not include Miami, so I could compliment him in person. At any rate, do yourselves a favor, LOTR fans, Serkis fans, and acting aficionados alike...it is very revelatory and heartwarming."
356231,2,PT Cruiser Radiator,I am very happy with this radiator. Fits my 2005 PT cruiser classis 5 speed perfectly with no problems. Quality is just as good as OEM.
356260,2,Great for Cycling/Sport,"I wear these when I go cycling - the loop over the ear is a must for keeping the earbuds in the ear. The sound is great - but the other reviewer had a point about the buds needing to be in your ear to have good bass. This actually is a plus for me - jam them in when I am on the road alone (no cars) and move them so they are not ""jammed in"" when I need to hear the sounds of traffic around me.And for those that are cycling with these or any headsets, wear a helmet and use a read-view mirror. Know your surroundings and stay safe!"
356359,2,worthwhile despite problems,"I purchased this book purely as a reference guide to help me learn to downsize for new empty-nest status. I do not usually put much hope in the recipes offered in ""gimmick-y"" cook/baking books, and am considerably more than surprised at how much I have used this one. Yes, there are problems with the editing, but my biggest problem so far is to remember to adjust for using a convection oven. The recipes themselves have been unexpectedly successful. It has been very easy to make adaptations and adjustments, either to suit our personal preferences or to produce smaller scale versions of family favorites. All together far more than I had hoped for when I discovered the book."
356363,2,vespa scooter handbook,"How to Restore and Maintain Your Vespa Motorscooter (Motorbooks Workshop) (Motorbooks Workshop)written mainly for american market but very informative and detailed,it should be noted that some models such as the T5 were not imported into the USA and are therefore not covered otherwise lots of tips and guides on restoration"
356414,2,"Intimidating, but inspiring!","I received this book as a gift, being newly into gardening in the NW, and at first thumbing through I was a little puzzled. It appears to be more of musings then a 'real' garden book and I wondered how useful it would be for actual gardening. But once I started to read, I found this book to be such a delight! So many of the passages made me smile, so many made me want to laugh and all were inspiring. I really enjoy being able to pick this up and read a little on 'spooky' plants or the use of variegated leaves. This and the Western Sunset garden book are helping me make a great new garden here!"
356482,2,Essential reading for Brady Bunch fans,As a Brady Bunch fan i loved this book . Well written and hillariously funny in parts it fills in the pieces you always wondered about . Thank you Barry
356509,2,Forgotten Fire,"This book was my first foray into getting personal about the Armenian experience during the genocide. In my family the stories were kept hushed. I understand why now. One hears of poverty and death, but with this dignified account of a young boy's survival you cannot ignore how generations are changed one person at a time by racial ""cleansing"". This book is not for children."
356511,2,not bad,"It does help absorbing oil and has a fine texture. The jar looks frosty when I received it, but after a little research, the reason seems to be the kaolin."
356535,2,Very comprehensive and well written,"As the transportation professor at West Virginia University, I take issue with the review from Braxton Lewis (one of my former students). This book does not have errors and we have been using it at West Virginia University for 12 years and will continue to do so.The book covers all the major concepts needed to prepare students for advanced courses in transportation. Each chapter is well-written and gives just the right level of detail and technical content.One very nice feature is that the book includes the charts, tables, etc from the desigh guides where appropriate. This way, the concepts are presented cleanly without students having to fumble through the various codes and design guides as they try to learn the concepts."
356538,2,A whole new perspective on golf gamesmanship,"Its a good book if you want to gain a mental edge in your weekly foursome. It give some interesting insights into betting, strategy and sportsmanship."
356626,2,Works very well,"The only downside I have experienced with this product is that one has to be careful when clamping thick edged chisels and thick, narrow plane irons to make sure they are installed flat. With wider plane irons there are no problems."
356714,2,Half is still an awful lot,"Sounding slightly less self-assured than she did on her last outing, Careless Love, Ms. Peyroux still managed to capture both my ears and a good chunk of my heart with this performance. Overall the selection of cover tunes is a bit uninspired--until you hear the title song, penned by Leonard Cohen but brought into full dimensional and aching life by this singer's intimate interpretation. And added props to the wonderfully tight yet spare stylings of her backing band, who embrace--no, play--the concept that less most definitely can be more. An extremely solid outing here."
356743,2,Pj Stand,Good individually adjustable leg portable shelf. Legs screw into/out of the shelf and collapse very easy. The legs also snap onto the bottom of the shelf for storage into a rubber reciever. I have used this several times and reccomend it to anyone looking for a shelf for their PJ. I only wish that I would have seen the shelf accessory before Ipurchased it so that I could have ordered them together.
356758,2,Great Inspirations from Nature,"Lovely lights and colors I found invading silently into my heart while I turn on a photographer's book.Have ever seen the book 'Bay/Sky' ? - Maybe/Surely that would be another expression of 'Do you know what photographic ecstacy is ? '.Joel Meyerowitz reveals off a tremendous tales from the Nature with none of words ; Only with Lights. Colors, Darkness, Mists, Waters, Clouds, Sky ... . More over it, ultimately What a living on Earth is all about ... .After anyone whoever see this book, then he/she should ask to others - Have you ever seen the book Bay/Sky ?Joel Meyerowitz's lightworks are in silence, yet it's echos are standing as perpetual existence !A MUST-SEE photographic masterpiece it is."
356779,2,Great discount card,"This SD card is, as I received it, is a Class 2 1.0 GB SD card. I wasn't exactly sure what I'd get, as the product page wasn't very clear as to its Class rating. Class 2 is not one of the fastest, but for my needs (using it in a personal voice recorder) it works just fine.Highly recommended if you are looking for a small capacity, inexpensive, SD card. I'm not worried at all if I lose this one."
356833,2,helpful and simple,"Straight forward and honest, helped me understand a lot of things I had not before - better than previous reviewer led me to believe!"
356871,2,Julie Andrew's The Essential,"Julie Andrews is at it again! This CD imported from Australia is filled with various sounds of music. Her 'Love' starts quite slow but builds up as the song continues. 'My Lucky Day' is a song that carries a wonderful and optimistic tune. These and others, including 'Come Rain Or Come Shine', 'Tea for Two', 'What Are You Doing the Rest Of Your Life', and many more put together put up a wonderful group of songs that certainly meet up with the CD's title, ""The Essential."" For all people, young, old, boy, and girl, this CD is essential for any day and any mood!"
356875,2,A parable for all ages. A thought provoking book.,"Joshua, is a book that can be appreciatedby all. I found it to be a great source forbedtime discussion with my two boys.They are 5 and 7 yrs. old. Joshua, helpsintroduce key spiritual issues. Chapter bychapter, the book gently reminds us of whatGod is all about. The book also guides usbeyond our misconceptions and fears,imposed on us by certain religions and churchs.I liked this book because it was easyreading, and because of its ability to relateto me and my life. This book, is about loveand about what God should be to those whoseek him. I want to thank Mr. Girzone for abeautifully written book. M. Carroll"
356917,2,fast moving and most compelling,i felt the story was well written and a page turner. every family is a bit disfunctional but the hayes family story allows us the privacy of our own reading room to look deep within our own secrets and perhaps come to terms with them. hats off to ew summers. i hope more books will follow.
356957,2,"Excellent on the basics, excels on the new twists and color commentary","Full disclosure: I learned Mexican cooking from my mother who grew up in El Paso. She learned to cook from her family's housekeepers from Juarez. Although I enjoy a wide range of regional Mexican and Texmex dishes, I notice when something isn't done properly or when artistic license goes too far.This is my all-time favorite Texmex cookbook. I refer to it over and over. Here's what I love about it:1) Basics- It covers the basics authentically and extremely well, which I appreciate.2) Color commentary- From blind tequila tastings to the evolution of the crunch in a crispy taco, the commentary is genius.3) New twists- Small accents, like ancho roasted pecans, make a good dish, like twice cooked pork tacos with guacamole, truly great."
356972,2,Favorite Game,"This game may be eight years old, but it's by far my favorite. I used to own this game on the PS2 but over the years I've gotten rid of it, and now that I've purchased it on the Xbox I am reminded of how much fun this game is! The disc works great and the gameplay is amazing, so over all this game gets a 10/10"
357131,2,Black Order,Great read. Hard to put down. As usual with a Sigma Force novel there are a lot of characters to keep up with and jumps between events over a few continents. Got to pay attention to details.
357161,2,Concise and captivating,"Eisenhower is one of the greatest leaders of our century. Ambrose really gives you the details without boring, and mundane facts. Feel what is must have been like to plan the D-Day invasion, and then deal with the Cold War. Eisenhower was a masterful leader often practicing Carnegie principles to motivate his people. Charismatic, and brilliant, people instinctively followed him. Ambrose does an awesome job of putting us in Ike's shoes."
357183,2,Good tunes......,"If you like live jazz/funk, you will like this cd. Sound is good, and the music sure hits the spot if you are in the mood to listening to music at a ""live venue"". I recommend this cd!"
357208,2,Supernatural just gets better and better,"As a huge supernatural fan I was super excited to see that the 3rd season was on DVD. This season was my favorite and the DVD met all my expectations. It has commentary from the cast, and lots of info about the show. I can't wait until I have next season in my hands!"
357275,2,Best Sci Fi show on television,"There is no wonder why so many magazines rate BSG in the top 10 tv shows. Not top 10 scifi shows, but top 10. BSG is dark, smartly written, and topical. It doesn't rely on glitzy special effects, although the effects are well done."
357328,2,Good movie,"I think the movie is funny, the 3D is perfect and the quality is amazing!I just wish the 3D movies become cheaper soon.."
357329,2,Great Family Film,"It is simply entertaining for the whole family. It has a simple storyline and it is so smooth, that time flies!Nothing to analyze, just relax and enjoy good entertainment. The graphics are very well integrated to the scene and story."
357414,2,"Good book, could be better","If you do a search on ""Milet Bilingual Visual Dictionary"" many different versions come up. After purchasing the book, it seems like the publisher made one book, and then translated it into 10 or 15 languages. The reason why this is an issue is there are SO MANY pages with items (for example, a page with camera parts and camera accessories) that simply have no translation in Gujarati...so all that is written is the word ""lens"" or ""tripod"" in Gujarati characters.Also, my other issue is that the book presents only the formal words for items, so, for example, bed is written as bichhaani, but more commonly used words like pathhaari or palang are not mentioned. Overall, this will be a fun book to explore with my daughter once she learns how to read Gujarati because there are so many beautiful, detailed illustrations with items that kids growing up in the US might be interested in translating (like astronomy and insects, etc), but it could have been better!"
357437,2,CD Visor,"Works sooo much better than my old, cheap visor organizer. MUCH more room for CD's now. Works and looks great!"
357476,2,Finally--a great quality DVD of a serial!,"This is a very rare thing -- a DVD of an old, classic movie serial that looks and sounds as good as DVDs of any other Hollywood feature. Serials usually don't get this good treatment when put on DVD. I wish the Hollywood studios would put out more old serials on DVDs like this one! Thank you to the brilliant executive who thought of this!"
357511,2,SAM HUFF HAD THE RIGHT STUFF,"THIS IS THE STORY OF FORMER GIANT AND REDSKIN GREAT SAM HUFF. HE DOES A GREAT JOB DESCRIBING HIS THOUGHTS AND ACTIONS ON AND OFF THE FIELD. HIS OPINIONS CONCERNING JIM BROWN, VINCE LOMBARDI, ALLIE SHERMAN AND VARIOUS TEAMATES ARE HONEST AND VERY INTERESTING. THE RETELLING OF THE MANY LOSES IN CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES IS ANOTHER HIGHLIGHT OF THIS MUST READ BOOK. SAM HUFF PUT THE ""D"" IN DEFENSE DURING HIS DAYS WITH THE GREAT GIANT TEAMS OF THE 50'S AND EARLY 60'S. I RECOMMEND THIS FOR ALL FOOTBALL FANS AND ESPECIALLY FOR GIANT FANS WHO WANT TO REMEMBER HOW IT WAS PLAYED BY MUCH TOUGHER GUYS THAN TODAY'S SPOILED ATHLETES. A REALLY GOOD READ."
357518,2,Great discs but for Super Bowl III.....,"This set is a terrific dvd of the first 10 super bowls and the extra side feature of coaches & players. However, I gave it 4 stars because Warners Bros did not include the digitalized version the SB III I have the version in vhs (looks 10 times better in tape THAN dvd!!!). Maybe its due to re-issue rights. The replica super bowl ticket along is worth the price of the set."
357566,2,A great way to introduce young kids to sudoku,Our 4- and 6- year-old children both love doing these puzzle books. Using the popular characters and stickers are a great way to introduce kids to sudoku--it is both fun and educational!
357628,2,Could not put it down,This is one of those books that you can't put down. Good from start to finish! If you like a good Mystery/Romance then this book is for you!
357692,2,A hard pill to swallow cause it's the end,"THE MOVIE WAS HANDS DOWN THE BEST IN ANIME ;BETTER THAN THE FIRST ONE ,NOW I HAD A BIG PROBLEM ,THE VOICEOVERS ,WELL NOT ALL OF THEM JUST SAKURA&TOMOYO(MADISON),IT WAS SORTA OUT OF WHACK WELL IN TOMOYO'S IN PARTICULAR BUT EVERYBODY ELSE IT WAS BEAUTIFUL,THE LINES WERE INTACT ,AND SO WAS THE SUBTITLES FOR PIONEER IT WAS A GOOD JOB ON WHAT THEY DID WITH THE MOVIE,THE MOVIE WAS JUST GREAT FROM BEGINING TO END ,IT WAS WELL PLOTTED ,AND THE BATTLES WERE JUST CRAZY IN A GOOD WAY. I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS MOVIE TO ANYBODY BIG OR SMALL,FOR AGES 4&UP"
357733,2,Great All-In-One Design Truly Ahead Of It's Time,We have owned this model for a number of years and it has been great. We still use it many hours every day both as a TV and as a PC. In fact it is the last remaining windows computer in the house because it works so well - every other PC has been swapped out for a Mac. My biggest fear is with the upcoming switch to digital TV by our cable company will render the TV unusable - only time will tell.I love the TV style remote and the ability to watch TV in a window while surfing the web. I am not aware of any comparable product today.
357762,2,The most human and humane Hans Sachs,"Disregard the technology of the recording and listen to the interpretation. Friedrich Schorr today is best remembered for the humanity displayed in his representation of Hans Sachs in Wagner's ""Die Meistersinger"", as well as his excellent singing. This pairing of both qualities put this recording as one of the best, if not, the best, of the Hans Sachs interpretations available to us today. Do get past the recording quality and enjoy this magnificent performance. I did enjoy and am to look forward to rehearing it many more times."
357793,2,Chuck: The complete Third season,"The actor and actress of Chuck: The Third Season are still having the same standard as before. For Zachary Levi, he's good at doing stupid acts during those cases. For Yvonne Strahotski, she's the one with beauty and also a good action actress througout the stories."
357831,2,Great Holiday Music!,This CD really gets me in a Holiday mood! Russ Freeman's take on holiday classics is truly unique. Love the latin-influenced God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman!
357866,2,This one fixed my dryer,So I like it because how can someone truely love a dryer part.I purchased several parts for my dryer as i was unsure which one was the cause and this simple little inexpensive part was the solution. It was nice having getting my dryer working again
357867,2,Whirlpool Thermofuse 3392519,Was exactly what I needed. I searched over the internet and could not beat the price anywhere. Fast hipping. Thanks Amazon
357948,2,Fabulous in every sense...,"Lantz has created a deck that combines fantasy, goth, magick, wisdom, modern art, and flare to create a new and exciting Tarot deck. The deck is on the darker side, but in a very natural, non-obtrusive way. This deck combines traditional Tarot images with new, yet applicable, imagery that gives the Archeon Tarot its own unique readability.Conventionally, the deck has a very high-gloss finish, and its the perfect size for shuffling. Because of the glossy finish, the cards are very durable and will last a very long time.Go for it if your hesitating--you won't regret it."
357965,2,Does the job,"We had ice damming, with water leaking into the house, and this worked great to fix the problem. It can be a bit tricky to maneuver on a two story house, but it gets the job done. I recommend buying the extenstion pole for this if you have a tall two story house. You will need it."
357996,2,A TRUE MC!!!! ALMOST as good as Chingy!!!,"If you want some true lyrical work this is the place to come! 2Pac, Gay-Z and Nas aren't lyricasts at all!!!!! They just mumble until theyre black n blue! Chingy, Lil Romeo and 50 Cent on the other hand rap for TRUE power unlike those posers I just mentioned b4 mah 3 favorite rappaz!!! There's this 1 song that's SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO heartfelt about this girl my boy has a crush on has cooties. I cry every time I hear it! Nas or 2Pac have NO emotion whatsoever! *sniff* I love you Romeo, I feel so sorry about that relationship. Anywayz, its just in time fo christmas so put this, both Chingy albums, 50 Cent Get Rich or Die Tryin and Nelly Nellyville on yo list!!! Only nice people like them, Nas & Gay-Z are for the NAUGHTY list PEACE!"
358183,2,"The ultimate 'What If"" tool for the home owner and Home Improver","This is not the tool you need if you are thinking of room/space additions to a home; it is the ultimate tool for seeing different colors and materials on an existing home or other building; all you need is a digital photo image.You import a photograph into the software and then you can see that same photograph with different wall materials, roof materials and more, all at your choice.People who own Roofing companies can show prospective clients what thier structure will look like with different roof materials and colors instantly, painting and siding contractors can do the same with exterior walls AND it is easy to learn and use.David Jefferson PotterAustin, Texas"
358267,2,Great Speakers,These are good quality and do not take up too much space. I also like their sleek design. I originally thought I'd mount them to the wall (they come with wall mounts) but I was told the sound is better if you don't. I have been pleased with them.
358268,2,good for bose,"Not the biggest fan of bose generally I think the motto is great sound through marketing, they market themselves as the best of the best sometimes when there are far better speakers out there. Upon receiving them I was surprised on the clarity and ability to produce reasonable lows when needed granted there not going to sound like they have a sub with them but overall sounded very nice. I think the mounting brackets were very nice and easy to make little adjustments with them , Overall very pleased with how they sound and If needed would buy again."
358286,2,Excellent,It is clear to me that the Holy Spirit sings through her voice. I love her very much. May God bless her always.
358333,2,Tripp Lite,"I'm purchasing a 2nd one of these because I was so happy with the 1st one. I've added more equipment to my rack which necessitated the addition of another 20 Amp dedicated circuit. I added another LCR2400 to handle the job of conditioning and protecting the equipment on that line. While this unit is not as fancy as some of the other units, I believe it outperforms them and is a great value to boot. I have about $20,000 worth of amps and electronics in my rack and feel confident that these units will do their job to provide clean, regulated voltage and surge protection if called upon."
358367,2,looks new after flight,"I bought this stroller for my tall 2.5 yr old for traveling. I love it!! It is not too small but not big either. Many of the more pricy and cheaper light weight strollers sun hood did not fit over her head it rubed it is also roomier in the bottom area. She did not even fit in the Combi! she is thin. It is light but sturdy I can ""whip"" around with one hand while holding other things on the jet way. The basket can hold a large diaperbag and a large purse. We went on several flights (it was not in a cover) and it look brand new. My Evenflow was thrashed in one flight, with that cheap plastic. I love this stroller It folds up nice, smaller would be better but it is fine. I did not want a stoller than can not be sat in for awhile why we walked around. Go get it"
358385,2,We Love Them,"My two boys really enjoy Karen Katz's books better than any of their other books! We own them all - and although ""Where's Baby's Belly Button?"" is simply adorable, and great for learning body parts, I think their favorite is ""Where's Baby's Mommy?"" When we read this to them, we always ask them, ""where is the wagon?"" . . . ""where is the kitty?"" . . . ""where is the ball?"" - We love it. We also count the ducks in the tub now that our oldest is 2.5 years old! ""Daddy and Me"" is wonderful because we change the dogs name to our dog - Lucy - and my husband doesn't feel left out because its about him and the boys!"
358427,2,Great Gadget,"I owuld recommend this to anyone who wants to eliminate the 3, 4, or 5 current remotes. It is easy to setup and to use; I wish it was touch-screen but you can't beat the price of $100"
358435,2,"genuine, hilarious, tragic, hopeful","real life american story of a lost child who was swept up in the compelling 1960's. dallas taylor's honest, revealing story tells what it was like to be a part of history - to experience the tragic/ comical reality of sex, drugs and rock 'n roll -- to suffer and battle his personal daemons and to survive drug addiction and an organ transplant. God Bless Dallas Taylor."
358467,2,Valuable for students & Delightful to read for anyone...,"This collection is valuable to the teachers in humanities classes, because it opens up their students' minds (hopefully) to the new and often previously completely unknown world of different cultures. Many best authors are chosen from each culture. All stories, without exception will bring something new to you as a reader, and the reading itself will be nothing but a sheer delight!!!! All stories will also make you think about your own culture and its values. Some stories will make you laugh, yet others will make you cry..."
358475,2,The Groovy Greeks,"Groovy Greeks, a fun, educational and groovy book! Groovy Greeks is illustrated by Martin Brown and written by Terry Deary. the book is about the Groovy Greeks and the cool things that they did. The Groovy Greeks is one of the best books I have read!"
358503,2,Clear your calender,"This game is one of the coolest games I've ever played. It has a few slow spots, but it should come with a warning label: Caution very addictive. You can get lost in the game and before you realize 4-5 hours have gone by. I would recommend this game to anyone. If your a fan of Star Wars or RPGs you'll love this one."
358506,2,A work of art!!!,"The most in-depth and arguably the best star wars game to date! This game packs soo much detail, it's phenomenal! I am soo far about 19 hours into the game, currently on Manaan (a water world) trying to find a star map for the republic. Well anyways the game is very expansive, you can travel between many planets and do a ton of quests and you can choose to lean towards dark side or light side, or a lil of both. It's super fun! The game is very long though, I heard it could take 40 hours or more to beat!!! And some of the fights in the game can be frustrating to loose over and over, soo make sure you save frequently!! It's worth it!!"
358518,2,Simply another fantastic performance by a truly great artist,John Fogerty can still teach everyone what rock and roll really is. It is great to see that he is once again getting the recognition he so truly deserves.
358570,2,Thouroughly enjoyable,"The wonderful illustrations and clever story about a girl's fantastical journey to prove her ability to do a ""man's work"" has quickly made it to the favorites in our home library. I can imagine the inspiration it may offer a young girl, but having only a son...I share it with him in hopes that he appreciates early on gender equality. He enjoys the art and the musical aspect of the story."
358589,2,Echo Five Papa,riveting and honest. Well worth the time for all who are interested in how it was in the Nam. I enjoyed it from the first page to the last page.
358590,2,Wonderful product,"The projector has many great features which makes your presentation professional.What is also great is that it comes with a bag and a remote control, making it easier to move and control."
358614,2,Awesome Mind opener,Very beautifully composed with stories and effective writing. It will motivate you from the first page. I keep it with me whereever I go
358680,2,This company rocks!,Everything that I have bought made by them has been great! This is no exception. i have read that there Plan City Crane does not meet expectations. That is absolutely the only thing negative that I have ever heard about them.
358700,2,Wonderful!,"I don't know much about other grammars. This is the first I've used by I think that it is very easy to use for a beginning Hebrew student and for the reference of a more advanced scholar. Well-organized, accurate, etc.Erica"
358717,2,magnetic pedaler,Great for people who must exercise knees but don't have much room. Perfect for RV use. Wish it had something to attach it to the floor because it does move around a bit. I still like it.
358725,2,Works just fine!,"I bought this for my son's Science Project on Tornados. It worked like a charm in creating a ""tornado"" in a bottle. No leakage and was easy to assemble! Makes a pretty cool visual for kids!"
358802,2,GASLAND,"very good source of the truth, will show it to thousends of peaple. down with fracking untell they make it safe."
358811,2,Totally awesome book!,This book is a masterpiece! I love it. I have read it 3 or 4 times in one year and it never ceases to move me. One of the best books I've ever read and I've read a lot!!
358818,2,I have liked all Lee Child books read,I enjoy Child's writing style and suspense. Always adding the unexpected. I will order more of Childs books in the future.
358843,2,Dog shampoo review,"My dog has really itchy skin. I bought this product and found that it seemed to help cut down on the itchiness. I would recommend this product--the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it doesn't take care of the itching completely. However, there is a noticeable difference!"
358857,2,Super item!,This vest came in handy for a my son during a birthday party where they had the airsoft guns! Very happy!
358894,2,One Adam 12,"Shout video made this purchase worth it. Pictures are clear and not skipping, jumping etc. It may sound like a lot of money. But if you love this show. It is well worth the price."
358915,2,An awesome book,A beutifully written book that was so descriptive it felt like I was there. If you are curious about African life and culture it is a must read.
358930,2,The buck stops here!,"This book definitely helps out with the second game, just as the first book helps out with the first game, very similar style, especially with the characters in the book, this book also has everything that you need to be victorious against those horrible good guys! Also makes for a great read when you're not wrapped up in torturing the enemy! Thank you for having this book! I wish they had completed the third one!"
358951,2,"Great, but be careful-they tear","This is one great price, if your looking for a case get it!Don't be throwing this around or letting it be in a car where your feet go-it can rip.Overall it's great quality, keeps cd's clean, good looks, durable-highly reccommend.!"
358955,2,"heart-crushing, never-forgettable","The feeling of the book wouldn't go away and it still hasn't, weeks after I read it for the third time.The feeling was one of helplessness and grief. I'd fallen in love withShakes, Mikey, John and Tommy, and their broken ending was toomuch for me to bear.Some books interest you and then they pass like an amusing dream.SLEEPERS is a book that I will never be able to let go of.Even just rehearsing one of the book's passages has the potential to incite tears.(I.E. His face was a portrait of hard hate, emptied of it's sweet-eyed charm, a resting place for all the torment and abuse he had endured.)"
359005,2,Excellent,"This series is one that should have kept going, but didn't. That probably just makes it worth it's weight in gold though. It starts out good and ends good with everything in between staying good. That's hard to do nowadays. This story follows a town through some of the hardest times they could possibly face. As they persevere through each new challenge it will only draw you deeper into it. This is a really good buy for the money and should not be passed up."
359026,2,Great for gluten free pancakes!,"This flour is great for gluten free pancakes! I was craving pancakes for a very long time, but had a gluten intolerance and couldn't have them. When I discovered this flour, I mixed it with buckwheat flour and now make wonderful pancakes every morning!"
359210,2,works,You have to apply to goggles about every 15 times or so you use them but it does take away the fog from the inside of the goggles.
359214,2,Riddle of the rock,"Well written, covers the 1946 3 day battle as well. It speculates that Morris and the Anglin brothers might have been picked up by a boat."
359215,2,Good product,"Hi,I bought this for my digital camera as it is drinking too much of battery. I found this product very good and the charges are long lasting. I would suggest this product to every one.- Karthikeyan"
359265,2,"Thoughful, insightful & detailed",Quite different from Murakami's usual work - even his non-fiction book about running. But unmissable. I particularly appreciate how he took so much time & trouble to represent & respect how the tragedy affected the 'everyday' lives it touched. And his essay sections towards the end on what it all means for modern Japan are most insightful.
359273,2,Seems to make a difference,"I had a 14 year old dog with horrible breath. After being on this stuff for about a month, no more bad breath. Her brothers and sisters teeth seem to be cleaner."
359277,2,absolutely wonderful,"Who would've thought that a book with such a strange plot would feel so real! It sounds simple enough - a boy surviving on a boat with a tiger. But there is so much symbolism to be found if you look deep enough. I also thought that it was pretty funny at times, but that's probably only because I have a gruesome sense of humor...There's not much else I can say that hasn't already been said. Definitely worth reading."
359346,2,Unforgettable,"I won't rate a book until after I finish it and a few weeks have gone by. For me, a truly great book is one that seeps back into your mind even after you've moved onto the next one. This is such a book.Not only is this an engaging tale (beware of reading this on your vacation, or you could miss the whole thing), but the book makes you consider such philosophical questions like:- Are zoos a good idea? Who benefits from them?- Which religion is right? Can they all be right, or does one exclude the others?- What separates humans from animals?- What makes life worth living?A book that keeps my nose faithfully between its pages while being read, and makes my mind dwell weeks later, is a book I'd recommend to anyone. One of the most engaging I've read in a long, long time."
359387,2,Works Perfect,"I needed this cable for my new stereo for my car. I had it installed and it works great, no problem. If you dont mind having the cord then it should be no problem for you."
359453,2,It's a Wreath,"It has plenty of lights on it. It looks good on the wall at night and plugged in. During the day, the berries look cheap to me."
359469,2,Couldn't Stop Reading,"This book is really one of the best I've read in a long time. I got the first installment free, and now hooked so I'm buying the next one. I guess the chores can wait..."
359475,2,works as advertised,works as advertised giving added USB connection to the computer easy to intall and not failled and is still in in the computer
359490,2,good quality charm bracelet,"I bought this as a wedding gift for my bride. I satisfied with the quality and it was beautiful. She also liked it and it was fit on her wrist. Thick, nice look, shiny, I am glad I didn't buy 6mm thin one. This is worth to buy. Recommend!"
359549,2,Owner,Would recommend this to everyone. Couldn't move wave runner off floating port by myself. We hit the easy button with this sling!
359556,2,Charming Kid's Book - Dealing with bully's can be fun!,"This beautifully written and illustrated story uses inventive language and adorable images to deal with the age-old problem of bullies. Instead of being preachy, the author solves the problem of the playground bully with charm and wit. This story is a true example of kid-appropriate problem solving. Parents, teachers and young readers will fall in love with the characters. This book is so enchanting; it will easily appeal to readers from ages 2-10. A must-have for school libraries and counseling offices. In fact, every elementary school principal should have a copy!!"
359589,2,AWESOME EXPLAINS IT ALL!!!!!!!!!!,This book really is a must for any Star Wars Fan...The story was well written and I haven't seen new characters this good since Han Solo & Chewy teamed up. (You'll see what I mean when you read it.)You really experience Darth Maul's full rage..... He sure is one bad A*%... I read a ton of Star Wars books and this has got to be one of my favorites... (Check out those Jedi Apprentice Series as well. They are simple reading but the stories are VERY addiciting................
359755,2,nice cleaning center,This is a nice cleaning center to keep all the small parts and cleaning supplies organized. The arms have 2 different slots on either end to position the gun with one side lower or level depending on needs. This is perfect for longer rifles and even fits the collapsable stocks with it fully extended. sturdy platform for cleaning!!!!
359844,2,Great Movie,"Movie was great, kept me engaged the whole time. Lots of twists and turns and you really have to pay attention to what is going on. On demand HD was good, but had some issues with bandwidth and the move kept dropping out. Called support and they were willing to work with me but I didnt need it by then. They quality of the HD was great, fills up my entire TV screen unlike blue ray or DVD's! If you like movies with lots of comlexity and a sci-fi/fiction twist you will love this on."
359865,2,Explore your own psychosis,"I thought that this film was well directed and cast. The story and the special effects keep your interest and is the kind of film that you wont want to pause so you can see what happens at the end. The only thing that I find fault with is the technology that is supposed to put the individual dreamers into one person's head, but I believe that I have a psychological explanation for that (the whole story isn't quite what you think it is). Anyway, a very entertaining film that keeps you wondering what will happen next."
359914,2,Very Sweet,"I have always listened attentively whenever a selection by this very talented musican came over the radio; however, it wasn't until I heard Cassidy's redition of Paul Simon's ""Kathy's Song"" on a folk music station that I finally bought a the CD that included that song. Cassidy's interpretation of a wide range of genres on this CD---from Irish folk ballad to pop to blues---is truly phenomenal and her delivery of all of them is as smooth as silk. That cancer took her young life is truly tragic, but her memory and angelic voice lives on in these beautiful songs."
359969,2,The Best Introduction to Buddhism I've Come Across,"I've read dozens and dozens of books on Buddhism, but the clarity with which Smith and Novak explain basic principles, distinctions between sects, and the development of Buddhism in America makes Buddhism: A Concise Introduction very special. It's definitely the first book I'd recommend to anyone interested in learning about Buddhism (supplanting Steve Hagen's Buddhism Plain and Simple, a great book itself, but in a different way). Best of all, this book helped me understand which type of Buddhist practice made the most sense for me."
359999,2,good cheaper alternative,"I bought these for use with my Rival Vacuum sealer. It works great with it, melts nice for an airtight seal, and have had no problems whatsoever using them despite being a different brand. The biggest test I've put it through is storing the leftovers of blocks of 7 year old to 12 year old Wisconsin cheese that I get when I visit my college campus. When I used to just use resealable bags, it would take just a few weeks before mold would start to grow on the leftovers. Using these bags and the vacuum sealer, I was able to keep leftover cheese good from November to January. I'd say they're doing their job of keeping the air out and helping keep my food fresh."
360020,2,The Rain Will Tell,"Again, I was hopelessly enthralled. It took me exactly three hours to read and I am just gonna say WOW! I got lost in my own need to avenge all those hurt by her maliciousness. Thanks for the entertainment and I waiting anxiously for the next...."
360042,2,Exactly as described,"Exactly as described, arrived on time. I used this to do Dynamat on my trunk lid and it was perfect for the job, will use this tool for the rest of the car!"
360060,2,All of the Tom Petty Hits-Well Done Again,"I had not owned any Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers albums but I recently saw a very well done biography on them on the Sundance channel. I decided to buy this album because I recognized all of their songs that I knew and enjoyed over the last 20 years. Tom was quoted as saying that he resisted the Greatest Hits concept but I really enjoyed the compilation of these songs. Some bands are popular for 4 or 5 years and put out 5 or 6 albums that are played to death and then you have heard everything they have to offer. Petty and his band seemed to have staying power and rather than release several albums in a row, they put out at a much more measured pace. You can hear them mature and you can hear a generation's musical tastes evolve through the last 20+ years. If you don't have a lot of Tom Petty buy this album. You will be glad you did."
360129,2,exellent,"It was a great buy, the exact point between price and profit. It is very comfortable and resistant. I have not have pain in my back."
360131,2,Best variety on the market,"In my opinion, this is the most versatile, easiest-to-cook bean available. It cooks quickly (~45 min.), adapts to almost any dish, and remains firm after hours of simmering if your recipe requires that. The Anasazi beans have a mild, nutty flavor as well as great fiber and protein stats. Bob's offers a consistently high quality product."
360170,2,"A ""must-see"" for Poitier fans!","I heard of this movie through a magazine which listed all-time great love stories. I have always liked Sidney Poitier though never thought of him as a romantic lead. In this movie, he is a single dad who finds love again. I'm so glad I purchased this movie through Amazon. I was unable to find it elsewhere. It is a welcome addition to my collection!"
360179,2,This is the best flavor,"Just got my package and I am thrilled. This has the best flavor of all the Tabasco products, except for the Original. Thanks People."
360181,2,Outstanding forethought and dedication to oneself.,"I have followed Tyra's career and was very proud to see her on the front of Sports Illustrated. After having the opportunity to read her book, you can find out that now only she a beautiful woman, she is smart, articulate and fun loving. I read an article in JET magazine about her having a hard time getting a date. Yet after reading her book, I can not figure why that would be, when she is so down to earth. God Bless you.."
360187,2,Great Pool,"Great PoolI tried to purchase this pool from Sears online and they charged my credit card with an estimate it would be delivered in a few days. The web site indicated the item was in stock, well... four days later they notify me 0 balances in stock and I would get a refund. They screwed that up too and I had to make a call to Sears to get my money back. I ordered the pool again from AMAZON and it was delivered on time and hassle free and at a cheaper price! The pool is GREAT, simple to assemble, durable, and was just in time for some summer heat relief."
360188,2,"This Book is a ""Must have"" but only for advanced users","I recommend this book to all. The included material library is a fantastic group of reallyb useful materials. I found the effects described, a little bit overused already in the industry."
360190,2,Zud doesn't scratch tubs!,"My bathtub is one of those that you put on top of existing old tubs so you don't have to totally replace the old heavy tub. Anyway, I was told to use a non-abrasive cleaner. This was harder to find than I thought because even Soft Scrub has abrasive particles in it. I found Zud by accident at a Target or Kmart 6 years ago and tried it. It was amazing! One minute after you squirt and spread it on the bathtub surface, the dirt and any waterstains are gone when you wipe it off with one of those cellulose (no-scratch) sponges. You have to use it with the windows open so there's airflow but, otherwise, it's perfect for cleaning."
360248,2,Lowest Price; Quick Delivery,Does the job for the lowest price. First shipment received with missing part. Replacement was shipped immediately with no issues. I did notice that one side slipped out of its bracket when handled with excessive force. Nothing a little maintenance tightening can't fix.
360249,2,Trash Can Cart,"I purchased this product for my sister and it is fantastic. Not only does it hold our two trashcans so that she can just wheel them to the curb, it will also hold the recycle bin. It was so simple to put together that it was done in minutes. It is an awesome addition to our family."
360251,2,Rock Climbing + Computer use = shoulder problems,rock climbing puts a lot of stress on the shoulders and elbows. Using a mouse and keyboard for hours at a time exacerbates that inflammation. After reading through it and now in stage 2 of the injury rehab routines i am already feeling much better. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to know how the shoulder works and why it starts to hurt. It is very well written and the exercises can be done at home (so far in my program)
360279,2,"Three Dog Night, my very first rock concert (In 1970) and I've actually met all the guys...","I met Danny and Cory after a concert in 2009, and have been in contact with Chuck Negron, via email and Facebook. In fact, delivered a message for Chuck to a former College Basketball Coach that he admired."
360305,2,all fans must buy,Many guest stars revealed- not like the L.P. That's the way it was back then-even though we knew friend Clapton and Starr was involved-did you know that Frampton stopped by and played guitar on many tracks-(not mentioned)heard from Frampton in a recent interview-but now we know Ginger Baker was in one of the jam sessions. Embrace what George couldn't release with the Beatles. Not to forget Gary Brooker-from Procol Harum and Dave mason from Traffic.
360355,2,sturdy nightstand,"The night stand is well made. It came fully assembled in a well packed box. There is a small blemish (about 1/2 inch by 1 inch) on the side of the top drawer, it is not the same color, it looks like they missed the area when they put the final finish on the unit. I am not interested in sending it back because we can do the touch up work ourselves at a later time."
360391,2,awsome sport drink,"hands down the best sport drink out there. has no sugar and is actually has a good amount of potasium.tastes good, not overpowering or anything like gatoraide. just adds a mild lemon lime flavor to your water."
360492,2,Love it but my dog is Stubborn,I love this product but you have to realize it is the dog that will use it and if yours is stubborn or has their own mind it maybe extra work to get them to use it. Once in a while Rocky will hit it and it will stick so I have to hit it myself to turn it off. It is a great product and it makes it better than hearing them whine to go out.
360608,2,Fuller buys Fuller brush!,"Yup, my middle name is Fuller, and my Mom told me early on, that I was named for the Fuller Brush man. :) Purchased for a gift, and she just loves it. Need I say more?"
360609,2,"Really great fragrance ""throw"".","This was almost too strong for me at first. I put it on the lower level of the house and it took away that ""basement"" smell for months. I was impressed with the ""throw"" this thing had. I would definitely repurchase."
360711,2,depends on the bird,"This toy seems well made and offers the variety of few different materials/textures to entice the bird. I bought it because it has some kind of plant pod pieces on it (my budgie loves her cocoa pod shell). Unfortunately, she wasn't too interested in it. Every bird has different interests though."
360829,2,Just got it.,"I got it and opened it up. The jar is smaller than it looks in the picture, and I'm hoping lasts a month. After opening the bottle, I smelled the pills immediately. The smell isn't too horrible IMO, but it definitely is not remotely pleasant.I knocked off a star due to the shrinkwrap around the jar (you'll need a knife to cut it) and the smell of the pills.I will write another review after using this for a while."
360857,2,Kloss Tivoli Radio is perfect...,"for a bedroom or kitchen, where good reception and sound are more important than overall volume. This little elegant radio delivers its value and more."
360900,2,Excellent!,"I really enjoyed this book a lot!The main focus of course, is Jeremy's decision. I liked his end decision, but to find out what he decided, you'll have to read the book yourself. I'm not telling. Anyway, Jeremy is chosen to be the Big Mesa basketball captain. After all of his hard work to get captain, his family is moving to Arizona to help with his father's heart problems. Jeremy doesn't want to move there, though. His best friend Trent's mom and Trent agree that Jeremy can stay at Trent's house for the remainder of the school year, and Jeremy can move back in with his parents after he graduates.Tia, Andy, and Liz aren't really mentioned at all.Conner is still dating Alanna. (Yay!) But Alanna starts to drink again. I wonder how long the relationship will last. I hope for a long time, but that's just my opinion.That's basically the book.I think they should pull the spotlight off of Jeremy and Jessica and put Liz back in the spotlight. At least Me, Me, Me is coming up for us Liz fans...."
360983,2,Hucksters & Hexes,"Hucksters and Hexes is a practical hex-slingin' guide that no posse, marshal, and certainly huckster, should ever be without. The rules are simple, the descriptions are clear, and the hexes are numerous and varied. If you are a Deadlands player or marshal and you still don't have this book, buy it! I've been playing Deadlands for years, mostly as a Huckster, and this is the one book (besides the Player's Guide, of course) that I simply couldn't play without."
361022,2,a very good watch,i had the lighter shade version of this and it finally disintegrated after about 5 years of HEAVY usage (military mainly) would have very likely lasted longer if regular contact with oil wasnt put into the equation.
361041,2,So excellent in art,"As others have said, this is interesting viewing for anyone interested in Shakespear and essential for anyone thinking of playing him. Would like to note that this is the complete series of 9 episodes. In the VHS set there were two added tapes from the earlier South Bank Show in which John Barton and other members of the RSC also participated, and was likely the springboard for the full series. However Ian McKellen's discussion of the ""Tomorrow and tomorrow"" speech from Macbeth was in the earlier show and not part of the actual ""Playing Shakespeare"" series with John Barton and the RSC, and hence was not 'edited out' but simply not included. While the early South Bank shows have interesting bits, the meat in all here on these DVDs."
361046,2,Good Capture of Led Zeppelin Drums with some flaws,I am a great fan of John Bonham and Led Zeppelin. I always wanted to see how to play the songs besides looking at flawed tabs. If you are a drummer and are a fan of Led Zeppelin or John Bonham then you should buy this book. The only problem is that you might have a hard time following some of the songs because they do not explain any of the techniques. This gets a little frustrating when you are trying to play it. But other then that its a great book. I hope they come out with another one of other songs because I was disappointed to see that there werent some really good songs in there.
361077,2,"Good, but has drawbacks.","I have used this pack daily for 3 years now. If one thing can be said about Outward Hound products, they have great nylon exteriors. But as with all of their products, the elastic is dead in a matter of a couple of months. I need to replace mine, as the zippers are no longer holding. The water bottles have proven tougher than i ever imagined, still flexible after 3 years. All of the logo/picture has worn off, but they are still used everyday.If Outward Hound is to change ANYTHING on their products, the zippers and elastic need it the most. The water bottle straps on both sides had begun to sag within 2 weeks. They now hang useless under the water bottle holders. The pack itself is pretty bullet proof."
361078,2,My cat loved this!,"My cat hasn't shown much interest in the television, but when we put this 60-minute video in, she was incredibly attentive for at least 55 minutes. She even looked upset when we turned it off. You'll enjoy the video too, as it contains lovely stories of wonderful cats doing extraordinary things, such as saving lives (human and feline) and travelling a hundred miles to find their human family. Great for any cat-lover: young, old or furry."
361081,2,American Mcgee's Alice Musical score....Worth the money??,"American Mcgee's Alice is a great album. It is one of my favorites in my collection. This is mainly because I loved the hit comuter game ""American Mcgee's Alice"". But, even if you never played the game, hearing the music can get you to stop dead in your tracks and wonder what and where the music is coming from. While playing the game, I noticed how terrific and entertaining the music was. It was then and there when I noticed I HAD to find this CD. Tracks 5 and 17, Wonderland Woods and the Pool of tears are the two most eventful and soothing/entertaining songs on the CD. All of the tracks are interesting and intriguing.If you are a huge American Mcgee's Alice Fan, or just looking for great and different music, this is the CD for you....."
361299,2,An excellent video you can do every day!,"Denise is an excelllent motivator and fun to work out with. This video is great to begin every day with since each segment is only 10 minutes, but they work you hard!!"
361302,2,Rob Tyner Band - 'Rock And Roll People' (Captain Trip),"Great sounding archive performance from the late ex-MC 5 vocalist. Taken from two different gigs in the spring / summer of 1977. After listening to the interview, you discover these concerts were thirty-minute sets that took place mostly at auto shows. Actually, this disc's first gig was cut short by security because the crowd was getting to wild. What a bunch of lame asses. Nonetheless, this Japanese import really cooks! Opens with a Stones cover ""19th Nervous Breakdown"" and a Chuck Berry tune ""Back In The USA"". I was kind of impressed with some of Tyner's solo material, like ""Out Of My Hands"", ""Taboo"" and ""Penny Candy"". Rest assure,there are two MC 5 scorchers present ""Kick Out The Jams"" and ""Looking At You"". Overall,a very good sound mix. Aimed pretty much toward collectors and MC 5 completists. However, might STILL appeal to fans of the Deviants, Stooges, Pink Fairies, Blue Cheer and maybe The Melvins."
361305,2,Great Value For Money - WONDERFUL Product,"The description (or lack thereof) of this item was a little vague, but I decided to take a chance on buying this 'bulk' pack from Amazon. I have heard so many wonderful reviews about the product, that I wanted to try it.Received the package today, and it actually comes in 3 inner packages. Each package has a plastic container (vanity) pre-filled with 14 pillows, and an extra refill pack. Each inner-package therefore has 28 pillows or a months supply of cleansers.I've priced these online and they aberage about [money] for the vanity refill. You are getting three of the refills/vanity packs, and I think its a great deal.I havent used them yet, but will report back on their effectiveness"
361328,2,Buy at your own risk w/o this book,"I read the 1st or 2nd revision of this book and bought my first new car in '94. It saved me $2500.00 on my Nissan Altima. I still have the car today. I have bought 2 other cars since then and it saved me money everytime. I am getting ready to buy another car and can't find my copy of the book. I am going to purchase the book again to brush up on my car buying skills. I am sure the dealer's have come up with some new tricks to get into my wallet in the last 12 years. I recommend this book to all my friends who are buying cars. Besides being informative, the book is humorous and is a fun read."
361378,2,"Great, but not ideal for beginners","I'd rather agree with M. Gunther than with the anonymous reader from USA, TN, (who uses a lot of exclamation marks). I started with Collier and Manley ""How to read Egyptian Hieroglyphs"". Their extremely well-written & didactic book was a great help to read Allen afterwards. Allen is great, complete, but a little bit too difficult for the absolute beginner. I would have liked this book to contain larger text fragments."
361396,2,superb!!!!!,"I purchased this book for my brother's 60th birthday- having grown up in Detroit- thought it would be a great walk down memory lane. He called me when he received the gift and absolutely gushed- loved every entry. Now, i may have to buy a copy for ME. thanks"
361492,2,I loved it so much i got another one.,"and another one. I have had this printer for several years. My sister bought one and my brother bought one too. we all still have our printers and love them. We buy bulk or remanufactured inks at great dscounts. Am hoping to upgrade to an all in one with an lcd screen, but still scared it won't be this good. I print photos all the time, people cannot believe i printed at home. of course u have to learn how to work with your printer and get the right paper. but once u get it wow the quality is great"
361517,2,One of the Best Emo CD's I Have Ever Heard,"The first time I heard Applessed Cast I thought, ""Great, another Mineral clone."" Then I started listening to them more and they quickly became one of my favorite emo bands. A few months later I saw that they had a new album out. My friend bought it and we both listened to the first song with our fingers crossed. I was very dissapointed. Then a few weeks later I borrowed the album and I now think Appleseed Cast is the best emo band currently playing. While the first song wasn't the best, the rest of the album was one of the most moving pieces I have ever heard. I never felt the way I did when I listened to this album except for Sunny Day Real Estate. This album is much more rounded than their first. They have managed to create songs that sound happy without sounding poppy (The Get Up Kids). Buy this album. It will send shivers down your spine."
361543,2,Love it!,"I bought two of these bibles. One for my wife and one for myself to read together while I'm through the week. It's a great way to stay connected. We love actually reading the bible chronolicically and the NIV is an excellent version for ""story"" type reading. I would absolutely recommend it!"
361590,2,Great car learning,"I have not finished all the CDs yet, as I am listening to each a few times before moving on. I am so far impressed. At first it seems lacking instructions, but with repitition is great. They are the best CDs I have purchased so far."
361599,2,a wonderful addition to your meditation yoga practice,"This is now my 1st choice for my yoga practice. It is the most beautiful cd to listen to and I find myself picking it for each of my yoga classes. You won't be sorry, the entire cd is wonderful!"
361655,2,GREAT MOVIE....,Loved the movie..... very disappointed in AMAZON and the release day delivery.... Received on friday instead of tuesday.... the day it came out... NOT too happy....
361665,2,Awesome,"Terrible movie, however I bought it for a friend who loved it as a child. It made a great suprise nostolgic Gift"
361745,2,Excellent Product,"Our filtered fridge water dispenser (in the door) broke several times and we didn't want to fix it anymore. We started using this and never looked back. Works great, the water tastes great after the filter taste wears off, doesn't leak, easy to fill and fit great on the fridge shelf. Even the little ones get their own water now. Highly recommended!"
361797,2,"It may not have been the best, but.....","Tristan and Genevieve did have theit little spats, I agree. I wasn't too high on her slap either, but she did suggest getting rid of the baby. Tristan had no choice but to take Edenby as they both served under different Kings. as with all Shannon Drake books, her two star crossed lovers were in great turmoil and it takes all of the 200 hundred and some odd pages to overcome this, but when I think about it, the only reason they were really fighting is because they loved one another! I enjoyed this book and am certainly glad to have it in my collection."
361817,2,Great!,I used this on both my sons. Jordan loved being wrapped up in . Gabon didn't like being so confined. I liked it and it made them so much fun to cuddle with!
362067,2,Small and Brilliant,"You will never regret buying this. It run at only 55 watts when the water temperature goes below 35 F and turns itself off when the water temperature gets up to 40 F. Effective, effecient and with a great warrantee."
362095,2,could have replaced $1000 of counseling!,"bummer we didn't hear about this book before we started therapy. my husband is a healing vacillator and i a healing pleaser, and after one month our lives have changed outstandingly. it's true about more and better sex:-) this book has helped much with setting boundaries with my parents, as well as positively imprinting my 2 year old daughter. what a change!just read it."
362144,2,A Sure Thing!,"The one sure thing is that ""Soul Voyage"" is one of the only CD's I have that I can listen to again and again and never get tired of it. ""Stop the Rain"" brings tears to the eyes and yet other songs on the album have a great rock sound. Being a rocker at heart, I love Erich's licks on the guitar. His clear and crisp sound is candy for the ears. You won't stop tapping your feet to this one and seeing them live is even more of a treat. You won't be disappointed. Buy it and visit their website Goodfortuneband.com, believe me, you will not regret it!"
362199,2,DIY Adoption Guide,"This product met ALL of my expectations. At first, it was a little difficult to use, but that's my own fault. The examples were especially helpful, as were the readily filled out forms."
362249,2,Attention to every note,"I am not a classical music buff, but when I first heard the Casals performance of the Bach cello suites from the early 1930s, the work grabbed me. I've listened to other players, most notably Yo-Yo Ma, do these suites, but no other recording has grabbed me until this Savely Schuster recording. Each note is preciously rendered and lovingly shaped -- the closest comparison I know is David Grisman's first ""Tone Poems"" album. So sweet you can almost taste it.David Isenberg -- http://isen.com"
362265,2,it works,"it takes a week or so to get used to it at first, but its well worth the trouble.Also if your a fan of the apple one button mouse, switching to this particular mouse is a snap. i just wish it had scrolling wheel."
362293,2,Good viewing,"This magnification credit card is an excellent product. It magnifies even the smallest type, such as that on product labels one might encounter in stores. It fits in your wallet. All this at a remarkably low price."
362339,2,Superb demo disc,"This is one of the finest concerts discs available...great music, great sound, and a superb picture quality that leaves you breathless!! Don't miss it."
362340,2,The Best Joe Walsh album of the 80s,"A great joe walsh album with all his signature lyrical assets along with the various musical arrangements that compliment them so well. This album sticks to me the most out of his four solo albums of the 80s. My favorite tracks are malibu, half of the time, got any gum?, and no peace in the jungle. I believe Joe walsh deserves more credit than he receives. A must-have for any joe walsh fan."
362345,2,A good movie IF?,A good movie. If you look to hard you will see the plot early but still enjoyable too watch. The movie gives you enough entertainment value.
362487,2,Tasty!,I am a real tea drinker and Lady Grey never fails me - it is satisfying and a pleasure to enjoy any time of the day.
362514,2,I Ilike it,"excellent gas cap , hard material and it is almost the same OEM for my Colorado 2006 i will give you 5 in all i like it"
362527,2,Very Nice digital camera...,"I was looking for something that wasn't too complicated to use and to help the pics I post on Ebay show more detial. This camera is great, wonderfully small, and has attactive hi-tech casing. Very easy to use for someone like me who's just hopping on the digital camera bandwagon. I love not having to go to Walgreen's to get my pictures develpoed anymore! Definitely a good investment."
362565,2,Works well once you have the correct printer settings,"Once I set the (Epson Workforce 845) printer to ""best photo"" quality, it worked well and got intense colors. However, laying down that much ink on the paper made the paper crinkle somewhat from all the liquid."
362598,2,Most used item for my baby,"We tried everything, we swaddled with regular blankets, 2 blankets sewn together, special large ""swaddling blanket"", the miracle blanket, everything, but really the best and most used item for my baby is the swaddle me....It is just so easy to do and stays together so baby can't break out too easily... The miracle blanket also works well, but is way more expensive and also much harder to do, so after those middle of the night feedings, by the time you get baby swaddled he is wide awake from being jostled around so much. The velcro on the swaddle me is so easy. I like the fleece better because it is not stretchy, the cotton one is a stretchy material so be aware of that. I have 4 that I rotate through for night and naps...."
362625,2,Dragon Ball GT,"The best way to end a great saga. Although, if you are a true fan like me you would want to request another season."
362772,2,Scandinavian delight,Kitchen of Light by Andreas Viestad is a nicely produced collection of his recipes. He gives useful tips and clear instructions for what appear to be tasty dishes. Keep in mind that the products he uses are all found in Scandinavia. The recipes are quite different from those of Mediterranean countries. Viestad has a good sense of humor and reading the introductions to each chapter will enrich your understanding of Nordic cuisine. If you have an extensive shelf of cookbooks - do add this one.
362805,2,Refined & Expanded Overview of the REAL Matrix Conspiracy...,"Icke has updated his previous works with more information, much of which has been seen on his website in the last couple years. He appears to have refined some of his views based on criticisms of The Biggest Secret, though the basic ideas are the same and are more thoroughly and accurately documented this time. This is a lot of material to cover, and Icke has made a worthy effort. It's an interesting synchronicity that this was released the same month as Matrix V from Leading Edge Research Group. The coming decade should be very interesting!"
362897,2,If only it had flash exposure lock...,"An excellent camera. The small size and weight make it easy to take with you. Even though it is small, I found the grip to be comfortable. Good performance, and at an excellent price point. Flash sync of 1/500th makes life easier on your flash when doing fill-flash on a sunny day.The only reason it doesn't get five stars is the lack of flash exposure lock. This is where you can fire the preflash and lock the exposure values, so when you press the shutter it doesn't have to preflash. My wife blinks quickly, so every shot has her eyes closed. My solution was to get an SB-800 flash that can use an Auto-Aperture flash mode that doesn't need preflash, which works beautifully. It would have been nice to just use flash exposure lock, though. Other than that, though, I'm very pleased with this camera."
362900,2,Great Camera,"The quality of our pictures jumped as soon as we received the D40. The auto setting are great, lots of control over everything, pictures look FANTASTIC!No regrets about the price when we look back and add up the money we spent on what are now crappy, antiquated cameras this was a bargain. We love it!"
363053,2,Dog's favorite,"When we first received the bones, I was amazed at their size. The dog could smell the bone as I was opening one of them. When I placed it on the floor for him to chew on, he was scared at first. When the desire grew to its peak, he started to chew on it. He gnawed continuously for days and finally finished the bone 2 weeks later. We had to take the bone away from him at night because he wouldn't leave it alone and go to sleep. As soon as he finishes the second one I gave him, I'll be back for more."
363162,2,Winter favorite!,It got cold and we kissed salads good bye. This is a wonderful cook book. The kids enjoy building a delicious hot meal.
363164,2,YEah DAve MAtthews--THE space between,Dave Matthews is god. THis single reenforces that notation. THe space between is one of the best songs by dave...he dumps his soul and heart into the words that were orginally written about his girlfriend (now wife) ashley as they were analyizing where to turn next in thier relationship. Dave is god. Buy this CD u will no regret it. It offers different lyrics than what is on the EVERYDAY cd-----buy it to see what I mean. :)
363282,2,Another Spendid Pavarotti Performance,Well worth listening to...over and over again. Audio quality is very good. Just wish it was more than highlights. I'll have to get the complete opera.
363327,2,"The Grubby times are coming, are you ready?","What can I say, it's a great Book. This book contains the most comprehensive guide to practical bullet proofing that I have been able to find. I also appreciated the well thought out, easy to understand illustrations."
363341,2,I LIKED THIS TUB,MY HUSBAND AND I LIKED THIS TUB BECAUSE WE COULD FOLD IT UP AND PUT IT AWAY IN THE LINEN CLOSET. IT DOES TEND TO LEAK AT THE HINGES THOUGH CAUSING THE WATER TO GET COOL VERY QUICK. WE USED TO KEEP THE WATER RUNNING INTO THE TUB THE ENTIRE TIME WE WERE BATHING OUR SON AND THIS WORKED OUT GREAT. THE WATER WAS ALWAYS THE RIGHT TEMPERATURE AND OUR SON LOVED THE SPLASHING FROM THE FAUCET. I RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE WITH LIMITED SPACE FOR AN INFANT TUB.
363358,2,Works well.,"This ashtray works well, isn't excessively loud for what it does, and doesn't use a lot of power so batteries last a while as long as you remember to turn it off. Of course it will not eliminate the effects of indoor smoking but it will reduce them."
363396,2,getting warmer....,"I am a huge fan of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, but usually stick to their older stuff (think Mother's Milk, Blood Sugar Sex Magik), and this album comes closer to the level of the old stuff than any of the more recent albums.For all of you out there that are still touting Californication as the best album, go out and buy Mother's Milk, and take a listen. They have definitely calmed down throughout the years making more melodic music and songs, and leaving behind the funky rock beats and shouting that was prevalent in the older stuff.Stadium Arcadium comes much closer to this old stuff than anything has in a while, but still has a lot of the slower songs, which means it probably won't push out Blood Sugar Sex Magik as their top album."
363428,2,Fun and useful,"I own this tape and use it with my son, who is autistic. It's really hard to find a tape that appeals to him but this one does. He has watched it many, many times, learned all the signs on it, and it has helped him bridge to speech.His brother also loves it and learned many signs as well. I think for most families it will be ideal for babies through pre-school. The consistent simple and clear presentation and warm vocal tones of the speaker are ideal for very young children and for kids like my son with autism. Both groups like the consistency of style and the repetition, and the pacing does not overwhelm or overstimulate. I wish it had been available when my older child was a baby.There's a volume 2 out now and I'll be getting it for my son as well. This one was a real bargain and much better than many of the other products I have tried for teaching sign.janperkins"
363439,2,Good Movie,"Ok, alot of people are giving this movie a bad review, and I don't know why. This movie is really funny! But to find it funny you need to have a good sense of humor. You can't watch this being a person with no humor, or you won't get it at all. Overall, it's a really funny movie and even though some of these movies have been kind of bad (Meet the Spartans, and Date Movie) this one is great. Oh, and the ending song is so hilarious! Also, this movie has some bad actors *cough* Kim Kardashian *cough* (at least she dies early!) But MadTV's Nicole Parker, Crista Flannigan, and Ike make up for it. They are really good comedians and actors!"
363464,2,A great book,"I think that this book is great. The main character is going through the realization that she was deceived by everyone she loves. All the while, cooney makes her misfortunes into a thriller. An autor who can twist a sory into whatever she feels like making it is truly an author. It's a really great book."
363483,2,AN APT TITLE,"Soul cries is a very apt title in that it will touch your soul. You can feel yourself transported to the soul level, the core of your very being, as you relate to the words and sensations this book elicits inside. The author takes you on an intimate journey and you certainly know it when you are there. Keep the tissues handy - you're gonna need them."
363506,2,"Great case,still looks new.",I bought this case for my original GPS and am still using it 4 years later and it looks like new with zero effort.Great quality and saved me from breaking a few GPS units.
363666,2,A very different way to read the New Testament,"If you've ever wondered what prompted Paul to write any of the epistles, or when the gospels were written, this is the book for you. Viola pieces together a history of the New Testament church based on the book of Acts and available contemporary history. Viola gives readers a great overview of how the church began and it spread throughout the Roman empire.You will get the most out of Viola's take on the state of the churches that Paul wrote his letters to. He fills in the ""other side of the conversation,"" the part we don't get from reading Paul's letters. It reminds us that these letters went to real churches having real problems.Viola has a clear, unabashed bias against the institutional church. His critique of the modern church is spot-on, but be aware that it is there. If you want a clearer picture of the early church, and what Christianity was supposed to look like, pick up this book!"
363742,2,You will mean every word of this when you read it to your children....,"Reinforces the unconditional love between a parent and a child in a cute little rhyme. There have been times when my own kids have gone through one of the same things this kiddo goes through, and I quote part of the poem to them---for example ""I love the way you act so brave when you fall and hurt your knee"" or ""and even though it may not show, i love you when you're bad."" My kids love it, and I mean every word when I read it to them."
363777,2,None,"Fine book! What a nice experience. The book was in great condition, and received it in a short amount of time. Would definitely order from them again."
363787,2,Enchanthing,"Carmody's Obernewtyn is a magnificent read. It's a ""young adult"" book that can be enjoyed be people of all ages. I loved it. In fact, after reading the copy I checked out from the library, I had to buy a copy for myself. I'll be eagerly awaiting Tor's release of the second book later this year."
363853,2,captive star,Nora Roberts fans should read this serious and any book she wrights since she places you as the read right into the middle of the action.
363883,2,A Course In Miracles audio book opens your mind,These Cd's have really helped me understand those long Course verses. I can hear it over and over. Larry Bedini's recording is perfect for me becuase it perfectly conveys that these words are here for everyone and is loaded with inspiration. I enjoy the original edition because it has a very personal touch. This set is well worth the money.
363909,2,Excellent Recipes,If you're looking for a cookbook with a 100% success rate...look no further. Every recipe I've tried has turned out perfectly. I highly recommend this book to cooks of all skill levels.
363920,2,"Great, but....","Definitely the best controller out of the three main video game systems. Can't go wrong, everything performs flawlessly. HOWEVER...if you really want a GREAT controller, look for the wireLESS controller from Logitech. Check my review on it. But the Dual shock 2 is definitely the best wired controller you can find out there...highly recommended if you dont want to pay the 15 extra dollars for the wireless one i was talking about."
364062,2,excellent sugar-dance songs from three Canadian mix artists,"I first heard of them halfway through their first US release, Squeeze Toy, on Hot 100.3 FM here in DFW. Caught my attention right away. Sounded sugary like 'Barbie Girl' (Aqua) but with more of a western sound. Highly addictive. Spent an entire night flipping between two stations (and passing up on some good songs) waiting for it to come on. Can't wait until I can hear what they have coming up next..."
364063,2,The ultimate soundtrack sequel!,Finally there is a soundtrack sequel out there that I liked the first one enough to buy the secound. It isn't quite as good as the first one yet it is very enjoyable. I couldn't help but buy it when I saw it on the sales racks. Check it out if you like the original. The only complaint is that it is too short. Some dialogue from the film would be nice.
364064,2,Tao Te Ching,A timeless book. The Tao Te Ching is a classic on the words of Lao Tsu written in 81 chapters in the 6th century BC. This is the 25th anniversary edition tranlated by Gia-Fu-Feng and Jane English with caligraphy by Gia-Fu-Feng and photographs by Jane English. it is quite simply beautiful.
364073,2,Cute book!,"This is a nice book, a bit hard to understand, but overall it gets the job done. It helps you choose the right brow for the right face shape and helps you with tips to trimming and so much more. For the price this book beats not knowing what your doing, saves you a lot of time and hassel figuring out what to do with your brows. Good book."
364083,2,Fantastic show I tell you what....,"A great show that kept gettng better I agree this was one of the better seasons. However at this time, for what ever reason (I don't ""buy"" the lack of interest considering what other duds of DVDs of other shows and movies are out there)they stopped producing this show onto DVD with this season.We KOTH fans would like to see more. This site is helping that happen.. I hope. [...]."
364124,2,Powerful and effective,"I bought this to replace a Breville Immersion Blender that turned out to be a huge lemon. Because of that, I was a bit nervous to take the plunge and buy a new immersion blender especially from a brand that was new to me. Thankfully so far this Bamix has turned out to be an excellent purchase (and you can be I will update this review if anything changes).So far I've used it to puree everything from root vegetables to soups and it's worked beautifully, breaking down even the smallest and most stubborn pieces of food into silky perfection. I will admit at first I was a bit skeptical of the fact that this one isn't cordless, but it seems to translate into much stronger power than my previous cordless immersion blender and is long enough that it doesn't gets tangled and has no problem reaching from my nearest outlet to the pot on my stove.Overall I've been thrilled! It's been yielding the results I've needed, has cleaned up easily and seems very durable. Highly recommended!"
364180,2,Great chair mat,This is an excellent chair mat for hardwood floors. It has a nice felt backing and rolls out for placement very easily. It holds up great and looks amazing! I love it!
364181,2,Reviewing wrong product,"Many of the reviews are for a different Hitchcock package. This set has only 3 films: Rebecca, Notorious, Spellbound. And these 3 blu-rays are already just out individually at Sams Club. They are identical, have the same extras, and are only $9.98 each: why is Amazon charging so much when you can get them for about #30 at Sams Club, and get them NOW?"
364185,2,Sexy Rock & Roll with Punk attitude and Jazz influence,"Devil Doll ""Queen of Pain"" is an all around incredible album. Take the feel and look of a 1940's torch singer and combine it with the attitude of 1970's punk scene. Devil Doll sings her heart out...smoothe and silky but also raw and gritty. Intense lyrics and great musicianship. This record will become your favorite album the first time you hear it and will remain in your regular c.d. rotation for years to come. 18 tracks of diversity so you can listen to the whole album without monotany."
364367,2,THE BATTLE OF THE MODELS,this game rocks you get to choose your own model to battle with and you get to switch your model too. you win money after every battle you win to get more parts to power up your model. its very fun and very challenging to win.
364502,2,You Won't Regret It,"This is a WONDERFUL movie for kids. Absolutely nothing to be wary of, totally wholesome, exciting, and FUN! My kids love it. I only wish more movies were made with these Crayola Kids!"
364518,2,Nice Quality,This is a good and sturdy book with an enjoyable story and pretty artwork. Any little girl will enjoy reading and playing with this book.
364541,2,I may have bought more than I needed,"The idea of buying this much and saving 40% from the smaller bottle size was appealing, but only washing my hair twice a week means that I won't have to buy shampoo for 5-6 years. Not that it's a bad thing, I like the quality of the shampoo, but I'm afraid it could expire at some point before then, if that's possible.Luckily I have enough room to store it, but in a smaller apartment where space is a premium this would get on my nerves. I guess anyone with a small apartment and a Costco membership would have this problem with anything they buy in bulk."
364557,2,"An excellently written, thoroughly researched masterpiece","I thought I had exhausted finding fresh, literary works on the subject of plains Indian/military history, but this book is a gem. It is sprinkled with wonderful, relevant tidbits to events whose humanity is gone in other efforts. I've read about 400 books on the subject, and this is in the top 5"
364561,2,Sega Genisis 2,I received a sega genisis 8 years ago and the graphics are not great but you have alot of fun on the game. I just wish they still made games for it especially car games when I received sega genisis I thought it was going to be a cheap system that would break in three days but it has lasted a long time but I just hoped they would continue to make games for sega genisis.Thanks
364607,2,Good value,Silverware is a hard thing to keep up with in my house. This set is a good value and also pretty sturdy. Have no complaints.
364649,2,drier than a cracker but wholesome,"Despite a writing style that reads drier than a cracker, this book succinctly covers the math you will need to analyze CMOS devices. The authors' IBM industry background seems to have shaped this practical engineer's guide. I recommend this book to people involved in device design and engineering; not for theorists."
364804,2,"Superb, well thought out","This is a well thought out book that is well written and easy to read. It is a discussion about homeschooling and the state of public education. Although this book I have was published in 1992, I still find everything relevent today.Mr. Guterson is a teacher and a father who homeschools. What he says is much the same as I have said repeatedly. I am a former teacher and a homeschooling mother and agree with much of what he says.This book provides a well thought out argument, well rounded argument about why homeschooling in the end, is the best thing for our children. It is well worth reading as a homeschooler who needs the reminder that you are doing a good job and as a person investigating homeschooling.Well worth the money."
364825,2,"Excellent way to learn, but...","This is by far one of the best ways to learn Japanese that I can think of. Even though it doesn't really teach you much WRITTEN Japanese, it is by far excellent in teaching vocabulary and especially the confusing grammar of Japanese. My only complaint is that unless you can think of ways to make it fun, you could easily get bored with it. The book is very straightforward and doesn't offer the fun that I think other methods of learning the language (subtitled videos, songs, etc.) can offer. But other than that, it is far superior to anything I've run across on the web."
364828,2,Wonderful Album,"This is a great Christmas album. There are plenty of original songs, and Andrew Peterson has a great voice. In hindsight, I got to listen to the anniversary version of the album with the live songs, and it is worth the extra money. This will be played every year in our house.The music is in the singer/songwriter or folk genre and is Christian."
364886,2,HOLY COW!!!,"Being interested in Russian/Soviet military aviation, I already had several of Yefim Gordon's books (Mig-21, MiG-29, Su-27, Soviet Weapons, etc.). I've almost always been disappointed in books that cover multiple aircraft types, so I was not overly hopeful that this book would be anything special. Boy, was I wrong! Almost every, if not every page is filled with eye-popping color photographs and artwork. Most (if not all) of it is new and the emphasis is on operational aircraft instead of the company demonstrators so often seen in books on Russian aircraft. If you have any interest in modern Soviet military aircraft you will will love this book!"
364900,2,Great Gift!,Fantastic gift for a girl ages 5-10! My friend's daughter has used it repeatedly for the last year when writing thank you notes or creating her own cards.
364906,2,The BEST wedding advice ever!!,"This book is the best ever for getting hip and practical advice for planning a wedding. Carley does a fabulous job of clarifying the sometimes mysterious rules of etiquette, as well as coming up with some fun new ways of planning a wedding in today's world. This book is a must-have for to-be-brides and grooms, as well as for Mothers and other wedding participants."
365034,2,Great study of great civilizations,Professor Harl provides great insight into the ancient civilizations of Asia Minor. It would be difficult to grasp the depth of the topic with a less gifted teacher. At times Professor Harl can be a bit dry but his enthusiasm for the topic and the level of detail draw you in and infects you with the same enthusiasm. A worthy addition to the Great Courses series.
365079,2,THE BEST GAME!,THIS GAME ROCKS !This is a great game.I got Playstation one for Christmas and I also got digimon rumble arena.I figured it out right away .It's a little bit hard too.Espeacialy the last level with Reapermon.The best way to beat him is to use Wormmon with Silk thread or you can use Stingmon(His evolved form)with Spiking strike.It's a great game and you should buy it.
365114,2,Great addition to our sunroom!,"My 7-year-old girl outgrew her toddler tent long ago. But her love of forts and tents forged on! She built her own, with the usual blankets, chairs, duct tape, etc. But they were just too small, too. When I bought her this tent and put it together yesterday, I knew when she saw it, she'd love it. And she did. She has decorated it with a pillow, a blanket, her DSi, a flashlight and books. There is plenty of room for two 7-year-olds to play. About putting it together--no instructions. Yet I could figure it out just by looking at the picture on the box. A wonderful toy, perfect for feeding the imagination."
365142,2,GREAT PRODUCT!!!,"I have been trying another product which has not worked for me in the past, finally just started to take viastat. WOW! I was knocked off my feet when i started using it. It improved everything that needed to be ( would not like to get into detais )but you should know. ;)"
365212,2,Enjoyed every page!,"Buy this book NOW--because if you don't, you'll forget about it and miss out on one of the great humorists of our time. After you read this book, you'll want to call up Sheri and ask her to be best friends. She's likeable and funny in a not-obvious-humor sort of way. She's got true wit, and she dishes it out chapter after chapter. Each of us has a laugh-out-loud synapse in our brains, and Sheri hits it again and again. But most importantly, when I turned the last page, I felt I had become a little more laid back. Sheri makes you realize that the things we think are super-important really aren't as super-important as we think they are."
365253,2,This movie can be seen many times over.It will never tire yo,I was 15 years old when I saw this movie. Since then I have seen it many times over. Al Jolson was a singer's singer. His voice commands such respect that you become a fan for life.
365284,2,Close but no cigar!,"Just received the new DVD release ... and while I was thrilled with Vicker's portrayal there were a lot of things that bothered me about this production. Yes, far too many and too close facial shots and the lip synch leaves much to be desired because the vocal exertion on film never quite matches the vocal expression in the music.Nevertheless, I recommend this simply for Vickers and Von Karajan ... although I was not duly impressed with the surround sound balance. In all, it is a MUST for the serious collector ... but perhaps a more modern recording would carry more effective musicality. I have the Domingo recording .. nice also, but again it lacks the immediacy of a live performance well executed."
365345,2,Favorite childhood book,I LOVE this book. It was my favorite as a child and I still love it. I bought a bunch so I could share them with my grandchildren.
365377,2,It's a memory card,"This, like other memory cards, is a memory card. It has no spectacular features, and I don't expect to get any from a memory card. Sometimes my X-Box gamesaves will mess up on the Hard Drive, so I keep a backup of them on this nice little memory card. Of course, if you don't like tugging your Xbox and a network cable to a friends house, it's nice to have since you can share saves. And by the way... the Xbox HD is 10 gigabytes, a gig is only 1,000 megs, and thus the Xbox HD has 10,000 megs of memory compared to the memory cards 8 megs. It's not 10,000,000, or 120,000,000,000,000,000,000, it's just 10,000."
365388,2,Food Fight!,"Get outta the way Jetforce Gemini! DK 64, one of Rare's most successful game of all. Even though Donkey Country 1, 2, and 3 were out for Snes, this ones different! Better Graphics more enemie's, more characters to play as and more strategy."
365457,2,Good story,My husband really enjoyed the series. Looking forward to viewing more by Cherami Leigh. Good story and graphics. My husband would re commend this series.
365463,2,"Bach - St. Matthew Passion / Guttenberg, Neubeuern Choral Society","Bach - St. Matthew Passion / Guttenberg, Neubeuern Choral Society is a dvd recording under the direction of Noch Zu Guttenberg who leads the Neubern Choral Society on this Arthaus Musik recording. First of all the sound quality is impeccable. Second the choir is one of the best in the world. Yes there are no subtitles but still I love every second of this amazing piece created by the master of the Baroque era J.S. Bach. The soloists also do a superb job and I can highly recommend this amazing recording. Highly recommended indeed. 5/5."
365554,2,Helpful to new students,I bought this for my niece who will be a freshman at Middlebury next year. She has found it helpful so far and thinks it will be even more useful once she is going to school.
365564,2,Good item from a great seller,"Love this heater, although I gave it 4 stars because the first one I purchased about 10 years ago seems to be made just a little better. It heats up a room rather quickly. I set this up on a timer to turn on 20 mins before my 5 a.m. alarm which makes it less shocking to get up into the chilly air that I like to sleep in. I ordered this from Uncle Joe's - they were prompt and friendly. Qualities that may have once been a standard, but are a pleasant find these days. :)"
365605,2,Very Fun Family Racing,"My husband, myself and my 7 year old daughter have a blast with this. We race against each other, along with doing the one player curcuit mode and taking turns to see who can place 4th or better. It is easy enough for kids but still challenging enough to keep us big kids going. Each race is different because you can pick up nitro's to come up from behind or pick up money to boost your car better. Which makes it nice because we all have our turn in winning the game."
365646,2,Easy fitment. A little more noisy than expected,"I installed it by my own in a couple of hours without major concern even some small parts are hard to identify.The results is a slightly more responsive throttle and more noisy, actually I think that the noisy doesn't corresponds to the ""power gain"".I only have driven it for a few miles, so I hope be happier in the future."
365690,2,"smart, sexy and funny","acting and writing here makes the show great. characters are fresh and new, but so human as to appear as someone you may know, or may see yourself in them. most shows about dating and/or sex treat it like a silly romp, while this show portrays all the highs and lows. the arguments couples have are painfully real: shouting and saying some things they will soon regret."
365724,2,MMX4... IT Rocks,"This is the coolest MM game for the playstiation. I love the cool grafics and Zero is sooooo cool, i like how you get difrent weapons if you are Zero compared to Mega Man, the only thing that isn't too great is that it dosn't have anithing too arringinal, like the screws in MM8, or the awsome robots for mmx3, but it is soo fun...i hope they come out with mmX5 for playstation 2... PS>>> MegaMan Legends stinks, i dont think that they should have made megaman look soo stupid :( PPS>>> If you dont like the other MMX games, youll probobly wont like this one, except it has a million cheats"
365787,2,Dub Evolution,"Think King Tubby should be credited more on this CD; credits were not clear to me; but that is no big drawback, this is 5 star; ""This is Augustus Pablo"" though, is probably a safer bet, better release however.Augustus Pablos instrument, the melodica; is sort of like a piano and flute combined, bring up, what some might call a middle eastern sound: One won't be dissapointed; on the straight and narrow path, songs with lyrics, known names, Bob Marley, etc. is a safer bet; but apparently, this disc has historical significance and Augustus is a splendid artist with his flute. It might make one think, of the pyramids and palm trees, Robbie Shakespeare and others appear on this disc.If you are in the mood for lyricless reggae, a legend, dub evolution, try this.A lot more reviews here, I moved my review from the deluxe edition over here as well."
365795,2,Fair Read,"Stiglitz continues to push, but not too far, the boundaries of the dominant policy straightjacket.So worth a read. particularly, if you want to push the policy framework even further."
365958,2,Worth having in your library,"I was given this book some time ago and must admit perusing it very often. This is not the kind of book to read from start till the end in one go: doing this would be missing the point. Like others who have commented on this book I like to read sections when faced with a current problem. Asking me questions or suggesting answers via a series of questions is something that this book does very well. Once again, it goes to show that we always know the answer, it's just that we sometimes don't know how to get the answer from within. This book helps you better connect the dots inside your mind."
365983,2,Delicious and easy,This cookbook is easy to follow and written for the western cook who would like to recreate some of the wonderful Vietnamese dishes he/she might have had in Vietnam. Explains how to use ingredients that are uncommonly used in the west. The recipes are wonderful!
366095,2,Interesting and Informative,"I saw this video and immediately thought that it would make a good gift for some of my family members who stuggle with their weight. The video is really well done and Dr. Robert Pritikin presents well. Pritikin covers a lot of interesting information in the video. The topics that registered the most with me were the ones on how the human body reacts to surgar, and the tips on how best to develop an exercise routine. The video confirmed a lot of the advice that I have received over the years from other people."
366124,2,Great cooling,"The unit is great. Received in July and run every day since receipt. It cools very well, dehumidifies (in Colorado) well, doesn't overheat and has never shut down. The only down sides are the cost of running the unit monthly and the noise. Worth it though when the temperature rises to 105 or beyond. Very happy so far."
366137,2,THE must own game,"This game is the best! I can't tell you how great it is! There are 12 weapons to equip your ship with,7 of which you have to unlock. There 3 ships in the beginning and to extra ones. The graphics are superb, with explosions everywhere and not a hint of slowdown.The only thing this game lacks is a 2 player mode, but it's still a perfect game in every way. YOU MUST BUY THIS GAME!"
366169,2,"Simple, safe and effective","I'm very happy with this plastic beauty. For the occasional frozen pizza, or messy cheese delivery, this puppy goes the trick. I had an old metal wheel that was so-so and this surpasses it nicely. It's not a Ginsu, but like Dominos, it delivers!"
366215,2,A Classic (but short) Gaming Adventure!,"A lot of sub-par games have come out over the past few years. It can take some time to sift through the bad ones until you finally find a great title worth playing.This, my friends, is one of those great titles.A fun, well-written, creative action/adventure game, Beyond Good & Evil is simply one of those titles that every gamer needs to own. With an amazing stealth system, simple-yet-deep combat controls, beautiful graphics and sound (oh the sound!), and an easy-to-navigate interface, this game is nothing short of top-notch.The only negative aspect of this game is that it's far too short. Any seasoned gamer can finish it in anywhere from 10-15 hours. The ending is abrupt, and since a sequel was never made, you might feel a bit stranded when you are done.Despite that, however, this game is still worth the price tag. I recommend it to anyone who is looking for a fresh, original, and fun action/adventure title."
366238,2,The book was one of the better books that I have read.,"Mr. Moore is a very talented person, and reading about him in this biography was most interesting. When learning of the many hardships he faced, the reader must possess a stone heart to not be filled with compassion. I highly recommend reading this excellent book."
366318,2,Laugh Out Loud,"Waterfield's fantastic farce leads you through a rollicking day in the life of BRIT--the fictional museum of British History. While this piece of fiction is definitely a satire, one suspects that perhaps it is not too far fetched in its descriptions of the cast of characters involved in the opening of the exhibition ""Elegance"". The star of the exhibition is an almost unknown Gainsborough painting, which also happens to be the property of Sir Lewis Burslem, chairman of BRIT. The painting is to be unveiled that evening at a gala dinner of 400 people, including the Duke of Clarence and other ""very important people."" However, as the day goes by, things begin to go very wrong, and you will find yourself laughing out loud at this unique and thoroughly entertaining novel. For museum buffs, this is a must read! And, if you're not a museum buff, read it anyways! You'll love it."
366338,2,A Very good book,"Written with humor, this book made me look differently at the market. This book is pure-technical. Very good for people that have behavioral problems when it comes to stocks (like i used to have). It teaches a method which is good for people who rather have a ""do or not do"" instead of ""think for yourself"" recipe for success.The only annoying thing is self-promotion and a bit of arrogance by the author, but the new bunch of $$$ in my bank account most certainly make up for this:)Another disadvantage is that this book is not up-to-date.Anyway, i still recommend it as it helped my portfolio a great deal."
366383,2,"NO MAN IS AN ISLAND,A REVIEW","THIS IS A STORY ABOUT MY GRANDFATHER GEORGE R.TWEED NAVY WORLD WAR 2 HERO.HE SAVED OVER 100 PEOPLE ON THE ISLAND OF GUAM.I RECENTLY JUST GOT A A INTERNET AND FOUND NOT ONLY THIS COMING OUT ON VIDEO ON V.H.S.-HOPEFULLY SOON ON D.V.D.ME AND MY FATHER ROBERT R.TWEED FOUND ALSO WEBSITES ON ROBISON CRUSOE U.S.N.-BLAKE CLARK I LIKE THE FACT OF THE REVIEWS OF THIS MOVIE PORTAYING THE ACTUAL HISTORY OF WHAT IT MUST OF BEEN LIKE FOR HIM DURING WORLD WAR 2.I LIKE ALSO THE FACT THAT THIS MOVIE IS COMING OUT MAY 15,2001.WITH PEARL HARBOR COMING OUT ON MAY 23.2001.I CANT WAIT TO SEE THEM BOTH TOGETHER ON VIDEO SHELVES."
366500,2,special DVS,"I enjoy it the show very much and like to be able to watch it whenever I wish, not having to wait for it to show on my local PBS station."
366509,2,LOVE this!,Does an excellent job. It does take a few uses to get your feet perfect and then it's just upkeep. These are really the way to go. Just like what they use in the professional nail salons.
366515,2,Storytime Princess Castle Playset,"We got this for my daughter (5) for Christmas and she loves it. I got it when it was on sale for cheap,cheap. I would have never brought it if it was $90. The stickers that came with it was a little pain but nothing like I have had to do in the past with other toys. It is very easy to set up comes in 2 pieces. The horse and carriage along with the dolls are beautiful!!!."
366516,2,Look at where we were and where we might be going,"This is not a run of the mill anthology of 20th Century scientific thinking and predictions. This a many and varied collection of articles, some so short as to only occupy a few lines, whilst some run to 2 or 3 pages.Some of them are ironic, such as predictions that never came to pass (eg Spiro Agnew on Supersonic flight), whilst others transpire to be very omniscient in their warnings for the future (concerns about the 'O' rings on the Space Shuttle 6 months before Challenger exploded).Well worth a read to look back at where we were, consider where we've come to, and where we might be going."
366550,2,It sure has got me lovin' their music!!,"I first heard the title track ""Fireproof"" on the radio, so I shortly after that bought the CD. I love it. I would say that my definate favorites are ""A Shame,"" ""Fireproof"" and ""Echelon"", although I also like that Stay Up song and Light at my feet. I haven't really heard their earlier stuff from the ""Above"" album, but since I love their music now, I think I'll give it a try!!<Vapor>"
366585,2,Boston Rocks with this hot new group,"With solid songwriting and excellent pop sensiblity, this CD is F-U-N. Get it while you still can."
366607,2,Basically this is what I call magick,"I am more interested in Chaos Magick than in other king of magick, and maybe this is the reason I like this book. It is simple to read, and sometimes it seems it so simple to not teach you anything, instead is so full of information you need to know more and more."
366633,2,The best C++ 2005 book in the market,"I bought this book because I needed to switch from C# 2003 to C++ 2005.It looks great at a glance... In fact, it IS great!From my point of view, it has at least 2 serious advantages over any other C++ 2005 book that I've seen so far:1. While most other books focus on Windows Forms, this one has several chapters on MFC (which is exactly what I needed). With experience in C# (.NET 1.1), I am not interested in WinForms (there are no major differences in developing WinForms in C# and C++), but many legacy apps were written using MFC.2. Unlike many other C++ books, this one has several exercises at the end of each chapter. If in doubt, sample answers (solutions) are available for download from the publisher's website.I highly recommend this book to anyone who needs to get up to speed with C++ 2005."
366653,2,THE BEST,I BELEIVE THAT FINALLY MICROSOFT FINALLY FOUND THE RIGHT FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS IN A VERY GOOD PACKAGE.CONGRATULATIONS
366673,2,Kava does it again.,I really enjoy the writing of Kava. Her characters are well developed and the story lines are very believable. I have read all ov her books so far and hope she keeps writing for a very long time.
366714,2,My Husband's Double Life,"I purchased this dvd I think in October 2011, so now here it is already Feburary 2012. Sorry it took me so long to watch it. I purchased this movie because I like Margaret Colin, and because I like these type of suspense movies. I think it was very well played by the actors. I almost cried when they had to give the dog away. I would have liked to know what the other actors names where, the kids looked so familiar, but I just can't place them. Good movie to watch, no sex or any of that other crap."
366758,2,I still play it,"Amazing- I had this game many years, and I liked it so much that I still play it a lot. It is a great value,especially for the price, and it is cool to design your own city and how it works! I also recommend buying Simcity 2000.That game is even better than this one!"
366777,2,Wonderful Ron Dante CD !,"Ron Dante is the voice of The Archies !Archie's Party is the third Archies album.My particular favorites on this CD are the hit Jingle Jangle and Sugar And Spice,pure pop pleasure ! Ron dante fans will love this !"
366853,2,one of the great writers of our time,"Tessa Hadley is a truly great writer, of the Alice Munro/William Trevor tradition, but with a slightly more modern sensibility. It's too bad not more people seem to have heard of her (she has published a good number of excellent stories in the New Yorker) but my guess is that will change over time. If you like intelligent women's fiction, read this author!"
366926,2,Quirky and fun,"I was pleasantly surprised with this book. The summary on it did not do it justice. Fun and engaging characters, with a plot line and twist I did not see coming. I haven't had so much fun reading a new (to me) author in a long time."
366945,2,"Love, Hope, Faith:A Personal Journey Through Cancer","A great read and heartfelt journey of the experiences felt from the sister of her brothers battle with this devastating disease. You will feel the pain and sorrow, yet her faith stays strong and helps her through it."
366950,2,Delicious!,This maple sugar tastes delicious! I especially like that it desolves easily in drinks that are room temperature. So many other sweeteners need to be in hot liquids in order for them to desolve.
366966,2,A Treat for the Uninitiated,"This was my introduction to the amazing vocal capabilities of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. I went with this because I am already a fan of Ustad Sultan Khan, so I knew I was starting on semi-familiar ground instead of just diving into this. I don't understand the words, but I can feel them. Track 2, as stated by the more knowledgable reviewers, is simply amazing! Apart that the emotion of his voice alone can bring you to tears, I want yyou to think about something for just a moment. The piece is over 30 minutes long and he is singing for nearly the entire time.Digest that for a minute.Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan was recommended by a guy at a local store when I started talking to him about Indian music. I still need to go thank him for this suggestion."
367005,2,Short but Sweet!,"Recorded just a few months after 'Five Live Yardbirds' on drummer Jim McCarty's birthday this gig shows a much improved band, a rapidly evolving band. A nice touch is Keith Relf's between song banter with the audeince as 'Slowhand' tunes and retunes his guitar. Almost the same set list as 'Five Live' but with a superb six minute 'The Sky is Crying'(this one gem alone is worth the price of the disc)....A quick aside at this point. Record Companies are singing the blues over lack of sales. Maybe THIS release would sell a few more copies if the record company would bother to submit a photo of the cover along with track listings and an editorial review of their own."
367036,2,"A Beautiful, Life-Changing Book","In this book, Lama Surya Das introduces readers to karma and dharma and other central tenets of Buddhism in an easy-to-understand (but not always easy to live out!) way. Most importantly, Lama Surya Das helps readers begin to chart a more loving, eyes-wide-open path through life. Thank you, Lama Surya Das, for sharing your wisdom! Your gift has begun to awaken at least one person, and I daresay, thousands more! (As an aside: The book's jacket art is simply beautiful.)"
367044,2,Good basic phone,"I got this phone by signing up with Working Assets (Sprint network) last August. The phone does well for basic features like address book, calling, and calendar. It has a nice monochrome display and the caller ID line can be read with the phone closed. Additionally, you can turn off the ringer with the exterior volume button, allowing you to easily cut off a call you don't want to take. It doesn't have any fancy screen or internet stuff, but that wasn't an issue for me.My original phone did break because the D-pad got jammed. It was replaced for free and I've had no problems since. The reception hasn't been great, particularly indoors, but when I'm inside I usually have a land line around anyway. There does seem to be this weird 1-second delay in speaking, a problem I've had with both phones, so I'm not sure if it's a Sprint issue or the phone itself. You kind of adjust after a while.Overall, I'm very satisfied with the phone."
367057,2,We are so glad we got this video,"Our whole family just loved this video, it is simple and sweet, with no bad language, or bad taste. We were all enraptured by the lovable young pollyanna and her innocent adventures. Even our four year old has watched the entire video over and over again. We recommend it very highly."
367106,2,crichtons unheralded gem.,"I have read everything Crichton has written, and found Timeline to be as good as any of them. Adventurous, with his signature scientific reality to propel the story forward. A great read!"
367129,2,"The book was a mastermind, great followup of Jurassic Park.","The book kept you turning every page, and was a lot more sophisticated than Jurassic Park, a great sequel. I kept waiting for Tyrannasaurus Rex to step on me every time I walked outside afterward"
367173,2,AWESOME~~~~,"I haven't played this gtame personally but I have started it a few times. Due to my short attenton span i would rather watch while my brother plays and see the wonderful graphics. I have seen this game for over two years now in motion. I love it. the story is far better than any of the other final fantasy games unless you wanna compare to # 3...or Nihon's # 6. THe effects are outstanding, and I loved the story. I liked the character's, the plot, the game play, the easy controls, and even better the movie tid bit's you get to see through out the game. The GF's are BEAUTIFUL! The artwork is GREAT! I love this game, and I'm sure you will too if you have the patience to sit through 4 dics of game play, I'm sure you'll love the rewqard you receive at the end of the game!"
367176,2,Great game but the menus design sucks !,"This is a great game overall and will keep you busy for awhile the onlt problem with this is ...1.) You get command to heal party completely for 0 MP2.) Menus design sucks and is bland3.) No different mode to pick like "" Hard , Very Hard , Extremely Hard """
367192,2,A Very Good Game.,"This is a very good game (but not as good as FF9). I think it is better than FF7 (I just can't get into it as mutch). The characters are cool, sory is cool, and the GFs are AWSOME! (Cactuar is my favorite.) I will give my ratings from 1.0-10.0. Graphics-9.5 Controll-10.0 Sound-9.5 Replay-9.0 TOTAL SCORE-9.5"
367242,2,...,"Feminists have to be the most illogical, bias people I have ever encountered... I don't know why I took a Sociology class called Gender Roles, it was a huge mistake."
367314,2,Good for the new wife and us old pros,read this book after 8 years of being a army wife and this book told me things I didnt know think all units shold give out as a welcome gift to all new wifes very good book and will teach you things
367324,2,Wonderfully written book on Witchcraft for beginners!,"I am still a beginner Witch, and this book was the door that opened into whole other worlds for me. The author includes descriptions and pointers on many different subjects, such as candle magick, meditation, and outlines of rituals, as well as magnificent artwork. If you are at a loss for what to do next in your spiritual life, and Witchcraft has caught your attention, you need to read this book!"
367385,2,Remys okay,"I fell for Rock Steady, however it was the remix of Rock Steady that I first heard, I was a little disppointed because this track was the main reasons for buying this CD. The remaining tracks are okay."
367430,2,Collision review,"The flic was great overall. Cinematography was creative and well-done in my opinion. Excellent soundtrack. My only criticism is that at some points the soundtrack was a tad too loud, making it difficult to hear what the respective speaker was saying. The editors were very aware of, and included key points in the respective arguments, making each scene thought-provoking. Who wins the discussion? You will have to decide, but, in my opinion, it is very clear in the final scene."
367457,2,a great book,this is a great book . i recommend it to every one.it gives a deep insight into the terrorist mind set...
367526,2,Helps catch more fish,The Mag 5 does everything I need in a downrigger. This is my first electric downrigger and it does takes some practice getting the hang of raising and lowering the cable a few feet at a time. Very happy with this product.
367624,2,Good value for the price,"Inexpensive, easy storage option. Just don't put anything really heavy in the center of the top as it's light gauge plastic and will bend down in the middle and you'll have to shove on the top drawer to get it in. But this is not really a minus considering everything. I needed some storage cheap and you can also see into the drawers."
367649,2,&#65533;Shapeshifter&#65533; an album that begs to be listened to,"In a time when a lot of music seems manufactured, Marcy Playground has managed to write an album with unique style and dazing melodies. ""Shapeshifter,"" the follow up to their self-titled CD ""Marcy Playground,"" is an eclectic mix of soulful acoustic grooves combined with just the right amount of raw rock and roll. Intelligent songwriting, exceptional music and a feel-good vibe makes ""Shapeshifter"" an album that begs to be listened to over and over again. Tracks like ""Rebel Sodville"" and ""Pigeon Farm"" show the bands diverse music style and the song ""Never"" lays down true heart-felt modern rock with that inimitable sound that Marcy Playground seems to manage. A great album and must for any true music lover.Todd Mills"
367667,2,Oil,"Made my hair soft , gave it shine , just the right amount of moisture without it feeling greasy .but when i received it it was like curdled inside and hard to get it out ! I don't think it was supposed to be like that , but other than that the product was a good product plan on buying it again when i run out :)"
367678,2,Very handy,"Have only had a chance to use it on several occasions, but it has been very useful. The only drawback is the plastic bit holders sometimes are difficult to get the bits back into place."
367731,2,Tim McGraw and the Dancehall Doctors,OMG this cd is so good.. I am so glad i bought this one.. i love it so much.. i play it over and over all day now..tmcgraw1fan
367741,2,What a Charge!!,Its Great to have a batery that will last longer than a day. I love having the product.
367764,2,hell yeah!!!,"This album is great. I think it will be a classic. I was wondering myself, where has B.G. been? this album answers that question. i cant wait for some more music to drop from chopper city records."
367765,2,Toddlers have fun with Video Now,"My 2 & 3 year old boys loe having their separate movie players even though we have a 10"" portable dvd player. I just wish that there was more educational movies for the player! Looks like most stores in my area are discontinuing the Video Now Jr and discs. This was a great Christmas present from thier Uncle!"
367826,2,Nice Holder,This is a nice and simple fruits holder. It looks nice in our kitchen and pretty much looks like the picture. I don't know if bananas ripen any slower but for what it was designed...hold fruits...it meets our needs.
367843,2,It's not about matching tiles-it's about playing MahJong!!!!,"Matching tiles is an okay game and this allows you to play that if you want, but if you think that is playing mah jong, it's not. However, this game lets you play the real thing. It is fabulous!!! You can program the new card in each year(the card editor is easy to use)and you can play the real game against the computer. Or, if you want, you can use the card that comes with the game. It is the American Mah Jong League card and it is out of date. If you want an up to date card or you play with the National Mah Jong League card then you have to program it or look for it on the internet. I play the real game with actual tiles and people,with friends each week (you need a total of at least 4 to play) but in between I love playing the computer game. In addition, you can allow your opponents to be pushovers, okay players, or masters of the game. I highly recommend this game."
367901,2,"Not your ""mainstream"" point of view",This book provides a very biblical view on having and raising children.
367931,2,QUALITY AT THE RIGHT PRICE,"The ""Complete Guide to Prescription & Non-prescription Drugs"" may not be a perfect drug guide, but considering its extensive coverage ... it is a clear winner. With information on more than 5,000 brand names and more than 700 generic names, it deserves a second look.This book contains simplified pharmaceutical and pharmacological information that is designed for non-medics. It is quality at the right price! Be it weight by weight or volume by volume, this book is superior to ""The American Pharmaceutical Association's Guide to Prescription Drugs"". It's worth every dime you spend on it."
367989,2,Wow!,Worth every penny! I made my business logo and oh boy it looks like it's worth a thousand dollars! Very customizable! I highly recommend it.
367998,2,Excellent woodworking resource,"Excellent set of books, and the DVD is invaluable. You get to see a master at work while he gives reasons about his methods."
368036,2,a great choice,This book is as enlightening as it is reassuring.The information is presented in a manner that respects a woman's instincts about her own body and health. I loved the hopeful tone of the writing and appreciated the detailed information. I find myself going back to this one again and again.
368088,2,Great Product!!,I am very satisfied with this toothpaste. I was searching for one for my 19 month old son and wanted something as natural as possible without flouride. My son loves the taste of it too.
368171,2,Beatriz' voice has a dazzling range...,"...and the spirit with which she interprets this great variety of musical styles -- from ballads to rollicking rancheras -- is truly incomparable. ""La Folklorica Mas Bonita"" is a collection of some of Mexico's most beloved songs: it's not only a lilting trip through the country's regions and their music, but a great way to hear and enjoy Spanish as it's actually spoken, in all its expressiveness. Beatriz conveys emotions from the most poignant to the most in-your-face, and she has a wondrous, laugh-out-loud, sense of humor. It so happens that my two favorite songs are the last two, ""Soy La Otra"" and ""Las Margaritas"", one a bittersweet ballad and the other an outlandish polka, but I NEVER fast-forward through the rest of the CD -- its range of tracks, and the range of Beatriz' voice, are worth experiencing again and again."
368299,2,"...go read, don't be afraid","""A reader, August 23, 1998"" writes in his review exactly what you might expect from people who are (to say the least) not open for new insights and ideas. ""while the real scientists are busy..."" ==> busy doing what?! Busy hiding from revolutionary ideas that's a threat to what they were taught? REAL scientists would jump on the challenge thrown at them to look into the fascinating world they had closed their eyes for. It's (seemingly) far-fetched ideas that can mean breakthroughs and revolutions in what we know about the world's history.So don't let yourself be put off by such narrowminded disregarding and open up. Maybe there's a whole lot more than what we have been taught to believe..."
368405,2,So far working great,"This drive is working great as a backup device on my 64 bit Windows server.It's so quiet I don't even know it's there other than seeing it and the blue light on the front.At first it wouldn't find the drive, but I broke out the instructions that came with it and you first have to plug it in via a USB port, then once recognized you can plug it in via the Firewire port.Like any other external drive I have used, there's nothing to install. Just plug it in and you have a new hard drive ready to use, though I did have to format mine before I could use it."
368422,2,travel trailer,"I installed this on my Rv to quickly disconnect the battery for storage. This with the help of a 5 watt solar charger keep my battery fully charged and always ready. This switch feels well built. You will need your own hardware ( bolts, terminals, ect) to get it installed. Get one."
368429,2,A refreshing guide to strategy in third world economies,"This book is a surprise. Very fun to read, very insightful and plenty of new ideas for doing business from emerging economies."
368430,2,Missing Parts???,I just purchased this car and put it together. But I can't seem to find the trunk door/cover or the key. Are these things purchase separated or did my box ship without them? Other than that my son loves it. Well worth the cost.
368571,2,I'm glad for the glimpse into the Cry Guy's life,"I've liked Johnnie Ray since the first time I saw ""There's No Business Like Show Business"" and was hooked for sure the first time I heard ""Cry"", so for me any and all information on him is worth reading. Whether the book has inaccuracies or not, I feel that I got a good sense of what Johnnie was about and am even more of a fan now that I've read this book."
368578,2,Excellent text,"This book is an excellent resource for those who wish to stay ahead of the curve on academic information. Biotech and nanobiotech papers are frequently unpublished in English for a while after Japanese publication, and this book (along with supplementary books of the same series) gives you the tools and directions necessary to grasp desired information within several weeks of learning. I also appreciated the list of recommended additional literature for learning Japanese and technical translation that this book provides in the early chapters."
368592,2,Great show!,"Although so far Firefly has been my favourite Joss Whedon work, this series has been excellent and left me wanting more at the end of the season! It gets better as you progress through the season, and I can see future seasons having ver intriguing and complex story lines. With all the crap that somehow manages to come back year after year, it is refreshing to see an intriguing, interesting show like this make it. Joss Whedon fans will be pleased with this - don't expect it to be his best, but of course there is the potential for greatness as we see the launch into season 2."
368618,2,Saw Blades,Usual on time delivery and are exactly as described. Saves hours over using a manual hacksaw and good for getting into awkward corners - the blade is quite flexible
368670,2,"Such Fun, it's Downright Criminal...","Written with knowledge and humor by lawyer-turned-playwright John Mortimer and played with tongue-in-cheek bravado by the late Leo McKern, ""Rumpole of the Bailey"" remains one of Britain's all-time favorite television series. The adventures of a lawyer who toasts crime -- because without it, how would he make even a meagre living -- the series also enjoyed a long run on PBS here. If you're a Rumpole enthusiast, you'll enjoy reliving his exploits with the nefarious Timson family (no member of which ever stooped to earning an honest living) and bull-headed Judge Bullingworth. If you're encountering Rumpole for the first time, you have a treat in store."
368797,2,outstanding,"I was hesitant when I purchased this TV because it got so many mixed reviews. I've had this set for a month now and couldn't be happier. It's picture can't be beat. I love how it has so many inputs. The menu is easy and it has great sound. There's really nothing I don't like about it. Also, it found HD channels on my cable that I couldn't get through my cable box. So I just put a splitter on and when I want to watch HD, I just switch to the other Coax input (the TV has two of them on the inputs). Also, this set combined with an up-converting DVD player is increadible. The picture fills the screen all the way and looks like HD to me. I would do it all again."
368801,2,Outstanding,"When I first read this book back in 1991 it really caught me. It's not suppsed to be a true story but with everything that is coming to light, how can we not realize that this indeed is a true story. But for a person like me that hates to read, this kept me seated and reading it was written in such a way i felt like I was there ."
368803,2,Good sander,"The is a well built sander. The portability makes it easy to use on large pieces. The one thing that I would recommend is to have a handle. This sander is somewhat bulky and a handle would make it more ergonomic. If a handle were to be added, I would rate it five stars."
368824,2,I love this litte work horse!,"This Compressor is a great value,you will not find a better one for this price.I have used this compressor with a finish nailer and have had no down time at all.It is also light and very portable! I just wish the little guy was a bit more quiet but other than that I have no problem with this equipment at all.I would look into buying the combo pack with the brad nailer,I think its a better deal.The brad gun alone sells for a 100 bucks! The combo pack has everything you need to start driving brads right out of the box,Thanks porter cable for a great machine at an attractive price.Everyone can now afford to become an ""airhead"" Once you do you will never go back to a hammer again."
368858,2,Best Christian CD,"I love that this comes with 2 CD's; one live and one in studio.I play the in studio CD over and over again in my car. It's really great worship music, then if you want to rock out there's the live CD too."
368944,2,the best game ever made,Halo is the best game ever madeCons:Addicting you wont be able to stop playingThe game seemed kind of short but maybe its just because i never stopped playingThe graphics can get slightly choppy when your in the middle of a fight and people are running around dieing and blowing up all around you but this tends to make it cooler.Pros: The best detail in graphics ive ever seenA great plot that wont confuse youyou wont get stuck wondering what to doThe easy skill level is easy enough for anyone and legendary is hard enough to give a challenge no matter whatGood variety of very specialized weaponryGood variety of speacialized enemysGame play is fast and very goodHaveing the same rooms a few times lets you get to know it better and helps with strategyThere are more pros but i dont feel like typing themOverall: The best game ever made on any system of any type. EVER!!!!!!!
368970,2,"Halo, the 2nd best FPS ever...","Xbox is the reason for Halo, and Halo is the reason for Xbox. Halo is (in my opinion) the 2nd best FPS ever. Medal of Honor: Allied Assault tops it by just a TAD bit (and I'm not even a PC gamer...)And, to the person who said Halo has bad graphics, you must be smoking something..."
368977,2,Good game...,This is an entertaining game. The only launch game I still own and pop in from time to time. More than I can say for the extremely overrated Halo.
368997,2,This book is THE BOMB,"I use this book in my IEP classes for intermediate ESL students. The organization and structure is as complete as it gets. It starts by addressing common fears of public speaking, replacing those fears with more positive outlooks, and then helps the teacher to build students' confidence by introducing and explaining each step that is needed to deliver an organized, well-researched, interesting, and powerful speech, while leaving plenty of flexibility for students to choose topics that are special and interesting to them. (Each chapter also includes a pronunciation exercise, though I supplement these with exercises from English Pronunciation Made Simple [Dale & Poms, Longman, 2005] that more directly target the needs of the current class.) Highly recommend this book!"
369032,2,Wonderful history resource,"I spend a good bit of time working with my daughter after school (using ""The Well Trained Mind"") and we are both very interested in history. We have enjoyed using this book and have both learned a great deal. Usborne always has wonderful books and the Internet-Linked series of books are fantastic. I bought this book to use with my daughter that is in Kindergarten but she is very advanced for her age- this book was probably written with upper elementary and middle school children in mind. This book would be appropriate for children of all ages- plus I believe most adults would learn a lot from it as well. I feel I need to mention that this book does cover the topic of evolution- I knew this ahead of time and was able to discuss this with my 5 year old and tell her my feelings on the subject."
369097,2,great tote,"my best carrier system of all the boxes and carts i've used over the years. actually, i've got the 14"" version, but the 20""is nearly identical. light/tough; carrier handle easy on the hand; shoulder strap self-orients on swivel hardware, which is very important when you reach for the strap to swing it up on your shoulder: no frustrations with twisted straps! it would be 5 star if: handle folded over for enhanced access; shoulder pad was round and same type foam as handle pad; grey or other light color inside for better visibility; maybe a pouch sized/oriented just for easy/frequent access for a small cordless drill. clc are you paying attention? thanks!"
369118,2,Awesome,This Kazoo just pelts out that funky kazoo noise. I can sing along with my favorite bands with this one.
369161,2,Flexees One Fabulous Body II Lace Cami,Very comfortable to wear and doesn't ride up like many camisoles I've tried. Also is longer than most I've tried. Would definitely recommend.
369284,2,"Awesome, Talented Men!!!","I saw the Los Lonely Boys in Chattanooga, TN at a Brew Festival and enjoyed every minute of their show. I think they played almost every song from their album. I bought a copy from them and they were even nice enough to sign it for me. If you haven't heard them live, you SHOULD!!! They are just as good live as you hear on the CD. I was so impressed. I keep the CD in my car so I can listen all the time and believe me, I do. The songs are so catchy that I can't get them out of my head sometimes. If you don't own a copy of this, BUY ONE!!!! These guys are gonna make it big really soon!!"
369292,2,All around 5 star toy,"These pencils are perfect for learning to write. My 3 year old son pulled them out of the box and said ""Wanna watch me write I?"" These are going to help him master writing better than any skinny pencil. These are worth the cost. This would be a great item for any preschooler or preschool setting."
369298,2,Great little tea set!,"Bought several of these sets for Christmas presents and they were a big hit. Got em on sale and that was even better. If you have tea lovers, they'll love you for this. We bought for everyone else and turned around and bought one for us. You can't lose.!"
369313,2,Excellent for beginning readers!,"My preschool-aged daughter knew all her letter sounds (short vowels), but for some reason did not like to read. Until I found these books! She loves the pictures and the funny stories. She loves to shout the lines with exclamation points. She loves to be able to put a sticker on the story after she's read it. Now, instead of me begging her to read with me, she brings the book to me and says, ""Mom, reading time!"" I've recommended this series to all my friends with preschool-kindergarten aged children."
369325,2,"easy to swing, sharpness counts","I picked up the 36 inch Fiskars for splitting modest amounts of wood, no more than a cord or so per season. It's far easier to swing than my maul and just as effective for my needs, splitting half a cord of freshly cut oak with ease. Depending on wood species, a reasonably skilled splitter should be able to dismantle medium and large diameter logs with the 36 inch model. The well-designed head drives cleanly through wood without binding. Opt for a shorter handle for splitting kindling.This axe requires a fairly keen edge, so keep a sharpener handy. At $52 (December 2012 pricing), the Fiskars carries a price premium over comparable splitting axes and mauls, and it's well worth it. The light weight lets me work a full day without fatigue."
369426,2,An angry hate-filled masterpiece,"I just love this album. It's so angry and aggressive that it makes a perfect soundtrack to a bad day at the office. Imagine a combination of death metal, hardcore and Black Sabbath-esque stoner rock, all played very fast and brutal, and then you've got an idea behind the Ragin Speedhorn sound. The sheer heaviness means this isn't an album that everyone will enjoy, but if you like bands like Iron Monkey and Earthtone9, or just fast heavy music, then I can guarantee that you will like this."
369456,2,Perfect!,"This was the perfect purchase for my daughter in law to be. She thouht she was overwelmed before. Now she is overwelmed, but organized. The cover being pink was also a plus since it is her favorite color."
369474,2,"Amazingly comfortable, well made air mattress","I purchased this well constructed air mattress for occasional use on my in-laws' sleep sofa -- which has a standard, back-breaking mattress. I used it for six nights in a row recently. The Aerobed Premier Classic transformed the sleep sofa into a solid, comfortable bed (I placed the Aerobed on top of the sleep sofa mattress). In addition to its comfort, I would note two important very positive features: (1) it does not lose any air during the night, as some other air mattresses do; (2) the electric pump works efficiently and quickly, both to inflate and deflate the mattress. This is a winner, and Amazon's price was well below any competitors."
369556,2,"LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!!!!!!!","I use this wonderful tool as a resource every day. Thanks to Jorge's simple, easy-to-do program and the help of his online community, I have already lost 17 pounds and am on my way to losing even more! This book and program are not about overnight weight loss. It's about getting healthy... losing weight is just an incredibly attractive & wonderful side effect! I'm finding more energy, enthusiasm, zest for life, happiness, and confidence. Don't just read it--live it!"
369621,2,Great Glue,Great glue. I use to glue wood crafts that has been stained different colors. Holds great drys clear. Wood glue sometimes would not hold after the wood was stained.GOOD STUFF!
369641,2,wide bike pedals,The Schwinn Wide Ride Pedal has made biking much more comfortable. Easy to install and they perform exactly as promised.
369724,2,"Lovable Belgian detective is brilliant, as usual!","There is something just so lovable about this Belgian detective and his little gray cells. What is incredible about this entire series is the attention to detail on costumes, settings and ensuring that the art-deco feel of parts of England can be recreated. I have always been a great fan of Agatha Christie and, in particular, the character of Hercule Poirot (I have found Miss Marple to be rather annoying). But David Suchet has resulted in a fan following for this character that has little to do with the original character. Each and every little flaw, trait, quirk, is played to great effect. This added to the already-flawless plots of Agatha Christie make this entire series a jewel in the crown."
369729,2,Fast & New!,"This book is brand new, packaged well and a lot less than what I would have paid for at the school bookstore, it also was delivered super quickly! The estimated date made me think I would be pulling an all-nighter to read it right before class but it got here 3 days early!! I'm super happy with it and I'm glad I can trust amazon, especially since I'm a poor college student with delusional teachers."
369751,2,A cheese plane....,It's a cheese plane.....it cuts cheese.....and it does it well.It's a nice product.
369823,2,The Last Great Soprano of the XXth Century,"Mariella Devia is a superb artist. Not only she is vocal phenomenon, but also an interesting, very individual soprano. If you like sopranos of the calibre of Maria Callas, Leyla Gencer, Renata Scotto and Julia Varady, look for the last of the kind."
369833,2,Gourmet Solo Jazz Guitar,"Howard performs on both acoustic and electric archtops. What you hear on this record is the greatest living solo jazz guitarist. Joe Pass is gone, Bucky Pizzarelli is in his 80's. Howard, apparently alone, is carrying on the tradition of pick-style solo guitar a la Dick McDonough and Carl Kress. If you know who those two were you'll know this is like the finest wine. ""All too Soon"" is worth the price alone. Along with Bucky Pizzarelli's solo recordings, and everything Joe Pass ever touched, this is more precious than gold."
369841,2,Entertaining!!!,I've been enjoying watching the Lark Rise to Candleford series. It was recommended to me by a friend who knows that I enjoy BBC television series. I've not been disappointed. The characters and plot lines have kept me coming back for more!
370006,2,"Small, lightweight, works!","Bought this pump for my mountain bike. Didn't realize it was ""for road use"", but think it will do the job. Extremely light weight and mounts easy and out of the way. Certainly not going to air up a tire from ""flat"" position unless you have a couple free hours and arms like The Hulk, but works to add air if you are low. Can see it coming in handy to get me out of the woods if I puncture a tube. Not sure why everyone is complaining about ""poor instructions"" - IT'S A BIKE PUMP!!! The trickiest thing is flipping around the end to use on different type valve stems. Packaging has a simple diagram on how to accomplish this."
370011,2,Favorite guitar,"I bought my guitar about three years ago. I still love the low action, crisp sound and the ease in which it plays. It is the guitar I turn to when I want to play."
370033,2,A good start for very young readers,"I enjoyed this story and would recommend the reading age from about 5 to 7. The one thing I really liked about the story was the factual content (i.e. Jack searching in the book to find out a little about each dinosaur). It helps kids learn a little about what they are reading and then they can pursue that knowledge if they wish. I think for the age range this book is intended for, it's a great series that will get kids excited about the adventures of Jack and Annie and want to continue on reading."
370036,2,Another question book...,"This is a pretty good book, separated by topic (eg: DVT, CHF, Diabetes, cough, dyspnea, back pain... each with about 20 questions and THOROUGH explanations for each answer (and wrong answers). But the cool thing is that it comes with the exact same questions and explanations on the accompanying CD-ROM.This book has no extra frills. It's not entertaining... but it does provide another source from which my professors liked to borrow (steal) questions for their in-house exams!"
370045,2,A mix...,"I give this book four stars because the book of fire is worthy of four stars, but the book of air is only worth three, but rounded up gives an overall four. The set seems to go downhill with every book. The first book was absolutely wonderful, then the second book was pretty good but starts off rough, then the third book is still good but is switching perspectives a lot, then the fourth book is just chaotic. It is really hard to follow the plot occasionally, or from who it's coming from. It is a necessary read, just because you will want to see how it ends, but a bit disappointing compared to the first volume."
370050,2,What everyone else said,"I heard about this band through Amazon.com and decided to pick it up based on what the amazon users said about it. You guys pretty much nailed this group head on. If you like Mnemic, Raunchy, Soilwork, Fear Factory or In Flames, this band is worth a listen. Of the bands mentioned, I think they sound the most like Mnemic.They have a sound that really has a lot of potential. They are a little rough around the edges but overall they have a good concept. I really can't wait to see what this group does next. With the right producer, they could really make a name for themselves. For now, pick up this CD used like I did for $6.00."
370061,2,Mesmerizing...,"When this movie first came out 20+ years ago, I was mesmerized - couldn't see it too many times! I remember catching it on probably HBO (what else was there then?) and just watching over and over. This is probably where my Peter O'Toole fascination began. Wasn't my usual kind of movie, but for some reason it really hooked me. When I was in San Diego 3 years ago, it was one of the reasons I went to the Hotel Coronado and studied the roof lines! Although I haven't seen the movie in years, and have only thought of it sporadically, it is definitely one of my all-time favorites. Absolutely going to add it to my library."
370109,2,Dark Hunter,"It was a great read. Sexy, fun and a little out there. If you like mythology it's a must read."
370146,2,Brain Dead Souls,Great episode. I'm completely hooked on Walking Dead. This show has got me dreaming about zombies. I can't wait to see the next episode.
370210,2,Pretty good,"I found it funny how it asked me how fun this ""game"" was...Let's see, the controls were jerky, the graphics were bad...But no. It's a webcam. Given everything, I didn't even use it for a game. No sir, I did not buy it for my XBOX 360. I bought it for my iMac.Basically, it's for claymation and such. I bought it because it's a good webcam, but more importantly, it's Mac-compatible.Good ""game"" overall."
370274,2,Great Biograpy,"I thought this was a great DVD. I especially liked the interviews with fellow teammates, coaches etc. I'm glad to see a DVD that isn't full of highlights, but actual people talking about this great player!"
370293,2,Construction Site Scene Magnetic Toy,I purchased this item for my 20 month old grandson and he loved it. He loves cars and trucks but especially the construction types. He makes all the noises for each one. He had so much fun arranging the trucks in the scenes provided.
370373,2,Finally got my hands on a copy,"SPOILER ALERTS!The movie ""Original Sin"" is one of my favorites so when I saw it was based on a book I had to read it. It took me a long time to find a copy, since it is out of print and used copies are $40 and above. I discovered it in a collection of his other novels and stories at the library and picked it up immediately. The book was satisfying in every sense, well, almost every sense. I'm so used to the raunchy version that is the movie so I was a little disappointed (it was written in 1947 so that was not heard of back then, to have such sex scenes). Also, I was saddened to read that he dies at the end and that there is no such happy ending. But, hey, what can you do. Its still a good read."
370391,2,Desert Rats DVD,The DVD came in perfect condition before the due date. My husband was so suprised to receive it for his birthday. Go Amazon!
370392,2,Worth Buying,Reading the Newbery Medal books is a hobby of mine. This reference helps me keep track of what I've read as well as remember what the story was about through its synopsis for each book.
370421,2,Easy to Use for Home Finance Records,"We purchased this to keep track of our home budget and our small business accounting. It is easy to use, lets you see where all of your money is going, allows you to forcast your budget surplus and shortfalls. My wife uses this daily and she has no formal training in business or accounting."
370436,2,Interesting,This real-life story reads like a novel. Our book club had a good discussion about Over the Moat. I hope James and his family live happily ever after.
370451,2,Voodoo Meets Jason,"First of all I watch all sorts of slasher flicks, I've watched hundreds of horror movies so I think I know what I'm talking about. Now, this movie is basically a voodoo fed Friday the 13th I cant get enough of Jason and voodoo is cool so I give this movie a thumbs up, I liked it from the crazy ass voodoo snakes to the kick ass tow truck. The body count was pretty good and the blood flow and guts shown was respectful Fangora style. I bought this movie on Amazon with out watching it first taking a gamble and I was not disappointed I will definitely recommend Venom for any horror movie collector."
370468,2,Handy Cleaning System,These refills are great for this toilet cleaning system. I recommend the system because it is the best self cleaning toilet system in my opinion.
370543,2,Great little book,"There are six pre-cut stencils in this sturdy little book from Dover. The pages are easy to remove, very durable, and clearly labeled. The designs themselves are great, bold and fascinating. I used them on a set of jars I had, and they came out beautifully. They make exotic containers for my collection of beads and marbles. The designs included are arctodus (a bear), smilodon (the sabre-tooth cat), mammuthus primigenius (a wooly mammoth), pilohippus (a type of horse), andrewsarchus (a type of wolf), and archaeotherium (which resembles a boar)."
370550,2,what can i say,This guy knows his stuff. I would go anywhere with him. Buy family hello outdoors adventure. love it alot lot.
370553,2,Must have for a Blu Ray collection,"Lots of action, great acting, well written story line. I've never met anyone who doesn't enjoy the Bourne series."
370575,2,An unexpected gem,"One of my very favorite books, read in a single night at Christmas. It's that sort of book - small enough to read all at once, but broken into little vignettes one could treasure night after night. Each vignette, loosely bound together with a wraparound plot featuring Albert Einstein, depicts a different reality from our own, where time functions differently. In one, time runs backward; in another, time is a literal location you can walk toward or away from. Another reality holds people without long-term memory, and everyone's past is written down in books. How similar or alien these worlds are to our own lie mostly in the mind of the reader...and that's half the beauty of it. The prose is simple and tight, but the ideas are absolutely breathtaking. If you want a nice quiet read on a summer's day, or a near-Christmas night, I couldn't recommend this enough."
370576,2,"If you don't enjoy it, you probably are.","This book should be read at relative speeds: slowly savoured chapter by chapter, dream by dream. Quickly, in a single sitting. Read it in a rush or in fits and starts; from end to beginning; in 24 hours, from dawn to dawn. Read it up high (say, in a plane) and at low altitudes (the Netherlands, perhaps?). It can be read and simultaneously, not read, for while reading it you might also decide to read another book entirely. How? Why? Read Einstein's Dreams and see. If you don't enjoy this book, you probably are in a different dimension (enjoying it, that is)"
370588,2,Great Nature Shots with Good Instrumental Music,Nice work in the Pre-HighDeff days of filming the various inspirational shots one would expect from Alaska.Instrumental soundtrack from some of the Staple Performers in New-Age music.
370731,2,nice overall,the mask itself is nice. it's a bit bigger on my face so sometimes water leaks in. One thing i don't like about it is that the shape of the lense makes my face ugly while wearing it
370739,2,Good strap,"Good, basic strap. Comfortable to wear, easy to adjust. It is a bit stiff, so hopefully it will loosen up as time goes on."
370829,2,Emotional Blackmail,This book is very good with clients that are held captive by their emotions and others use and abuse them. It is an easy read and a lot of client understand the language. Would recommend for professional or others.
370859,2,Eureka upright vacuum/Model 4870DT,Consumer Report was right: It is a best buy.The only problem so far is the handle release toe button: really hard to work.
370863,2,great for children who are autistic,My son since he was 4 years old has loved these videos from Rock n Learn. My son is high functioning autistic. We have every single video there is and also the tapes. Some are better then others but most of them are OUTSTANDING..........
370966,2,Mogical,"Paddy Crosbie's book is an enchanting account of what life was like in the Dublin before Ireland became cosmopolitan. At the time Paddy Crosbie grew up Ireland was still finding it's feet as a free nation, and Dublin was struggling to become a proper European capital. As a Dubliner I can say we take it all for granted now. But this book really makes you realize how much Dublin has changed. It describes events like the War of Independence and the Civil War from the point of view of the children who grew up in their shadow. But best of all, despite all this the book is witty, charming, touching and very well written. A great book about a time and a place that will never come again."
371022,2,Great film with two famous stars,"Both Davis and Crawford give great performances in this strangely offbeat film of two aging sisters living a weird and bizarre life together in a no longer so glamorous neighborhood.Davis is particularly horrible looking, with heavy white pancake makeup, and painted on lips and creepy eyebrows. Her cackling laugh and voice are very disarming as well.Crawford plays the invalid with much pathos. Both women portray what can happen to any of us in life. The sad decline of these women into a very weird life style is a great psychological horror story, that is both fascinating and disturbing.Victor Buono also gives a bizarre performance that fits perfectly into the behavior of the two female leads."
371030,2,Great product,Very easy way to learn basic music theory and train your hearing to the sound of each note. I am using for my church vocals.
371074,2,Great for a late-night laugh,"This is one of the funniest books I've read in a long time! Great insight into publishing and hilarious ""theme weddings"". Truly touches something within all of us who have looked for love at one time or another. Did not want it to end; hope to see more from Nicholas Weinstock!"
371095,2,Definitely Helps!,"This guide can be a pain but believe me it helps in this game it keeps you focused when you might be ready to throw in the towel because you don't know what to do, where to go, or who to see."
371216,2,fun,"fun, can be difficult at times but lots of fun in couch co-op mode. would recommend playing with a friend.campaign is like 5 hours with 2 bonus missions to download for free, so like 6-6 and a half hours of entertainment."
371232,2,Excellent reference for christian business ethics,"I am a Christian CEO in Hong Kong and have written a book review on this book for the Graduate Christian Fellowship a few months back. An excellent reference. Touched on many important and controversial issues including capitalism, bribery in third world, honesty, advertisement and marketing, etc. Presented many primary articles with balanced, provocative opinions from all sides. A book for the serious thinker. NOT FOR NEW CHRISTIAN BELIEVERS NOR FOR NON-BUSINESS PERSON. Only one criticism: the editors' own comments at the end of each chapter is a bit weak; not the same calibre as the 20-30 authors."
371242,2,Not Shocked,"Good aroma and good flavor, but did not shock me. I compared this coffee to Starbucks. As my standard in comparison of other coffee's, I felt Shock coffee didn't have the depth of flavor as Starbucks."
371251,2,Does the job intended.,This is a really fast drive that holds a large amount of data. When I purchased it I was nervous because many people had talked about it melting down. I am using it as a back-up drive so it is not being read all of the time. I do want to mention that this Hard Drive does get very warm. Much warmer then the main HD that I am using. Caveat Emptor!
371324,2,HP Deskjet 6940 - Excellent Value,"Excellent value for around $125. Multiple quality settings. ""Best"" quality more than suitable for professional business proposals, etc. Black & color cartridges, easy to install. Reliable - Daily use for 2 months and have not yet experienced a paper jam. Recommended!"
371377,2,Awsome,this game is not that bad. Mothers and fathers shouldn't get to worried about it. It is fun while also being entertaining. The pc game has been looked over and some of the bad things have been taken out. It is now a fun and well made game that all people should own.
371461,2,Not sure how some people don't like this sprinkler,"I got this a week ago and it is perfect. Very durable! All adjustments are easy and isn't even hard to do while the water is running. Some of the reviews here say that it has problems but there are no issues at all. If you play around with the thing a bit you learn what each adjustment piece does and it is easy. It shoots water very far but that can be controlled with the top metal flap, on the slow clockwise pattern it launches water far but then on the counterclockwise return it gets the stuff closer to it, everything gets watered. There is a tad bit of overspray on the sides but that is inherent in this type of sprinkler's design. When the arm slaps the water to cause it to turn a little tiny bit sprays to the side, it is minimal and really shouldn't be worried about whatsoever. I bought a LOT of sprinklers before this one, this is by far the best one in this price range. Don't let the negative reviews persuade you, this is a great sprinkler."
371535,2,Wow,"Remington Wet 2 Straight has done wonders with my hair. I have a naturally thick wavy hair that tends to frizz and usually no amount of ironing can keep it calm. This hair iron somehow manages to keep it straight all day long, it can be damp and muggy out and my hair still remains straight and no nonsense. The pessimist in me is still waiting for all my hair to fall out one day because the steaming effect on damp-to-wet hair tends to frighten me, but I've been using this for the past 3 months an no harm has come as of yet.Yes, it works on wet-out-of-the-shower hair. No, I wouldn't recommend it (mainly because with all the steam it's hard to avoid burning yourself). I recommend using this on damp hair, I usually let it air dry for about an hour or, if I can wait, I'll towel dry it and let it air for 10-15 minutes."
371557,2,Love the product but hate the itemi received,The brush itself is great. I don't think it helps too much with static but I love the metal bristles. My problem is with beauty time who I purchased from. The brush had bristles missing and the ones still there had glue all around the bottom. It's still useable but it's not what I paid for. I haven't bothered contacting the because I would spend more on return shipping then I probably spent on the brush. Go to a store and buy it if you want one.
371601,2,Bues Clues Notebook,"the price is way to expensive for the notebook but it is the only one on the market and my grandson, who is autistic, loves Blues Clues.He sleeps with the notebook making it worth the price I paid."
371639,2,Informative history of man-made diamond,"In this book Mr. Hazen presents a comprehensive, interesting, and fair history of the development of synthetic diamond. His treatment of some of the controversial historic elements is even-handed and accurate and he presents complex scientific information in a way that is easy to understand. This book is a must read for anyone interested in high pressure research and a you'll-be-glad-you-did for anyone interested in science at all."
371687,2,Listening Hearts: Discerning Call in Community,"Listening Hearts: Discerning Call in Community was the best book that I have ever read. With prayer and this book, I have received confirmation of a decision that I was trying to make. I believe in my heart that God actually guided me to find this book because I was not looking for it at all. I feel that I was led to read it because the contents seemed to have been written just for me. I thank God for giving me the guidance to read this book."
371715,2,great player,"this player is great. blu-ray movies look absolutely amazing on this thing. of course you need to update the firmware on it, but that is a good thing. why buy a player that gets outdated? this one will keep up to date with the technology."
371748,2,Durapore Surgical Silk Tape,This tape is perfect for the item I used it for. It holds tight andprevents leakage. I recommend it
371815,2,Rena's promise: two sisters in auschwitz,What a great book. I could not stop reading. I recommended it to my daughter and she immediately went on line and purchased her own copy.
371829,2,"great buy, very satisfied","I searched these for some time since the salon wanted to sell me a different one for $120. Anyway, I decided to give this one a try. I use got2b crazysleek to help with heat protection and smoothness, and love the results. I don't flat iron everyday, but 2-3 times per week, and get what I want."
371871,2,Primary source of a New World traveler,"Catalina de Erauso is an unusual figure in world history : a runaway nun who successfully concealed her gender and navigated the business and military structures of hertime. She's a swashbuckler and an eye level view of Spanish society in Peru in the 1600s. Historians believe that, mostly likely, much of this book was actually written by this remarkable person. I'd reccomend it as an enjoyable and quick read offering a first hand view of the past."
371933,2,The end is at hand.,"Jeremy Robert Johnson is not going to take you to a happy place. In his collection of short fiction, ""Angeldust Apocalypse"" the reader is taken for a ride into a world that's broken and screwed up and yet, you enjoy it anyway. Each story is well written, well placed in the collection. None disappoint. These stories are drug crazed, death crazed and simply crazed. Fans of the bizarre will enjoy this collection very much. This is a good first taste of Mr. Johnson's writing. If this collection is any indicator what's to come will be even better. Physically the book also presents well. Easily readible type, fantastic cover art by Morten Bak. And the ever tempting promise of new works by Mr. Johnson. All in all a good read and worthy buy."
372039,2,Best Chinese Financial news weekly,"Caijing is arguably the best Financial news (bi)weekly in China. Caijing raised its fame through the investigation of several scandal in Chinas stock markets around 2001 and I paid special attention since. Its reports are well balanced and deep into the subject. The editors especially made a conscious effort to dance the fine line, despite the shackles. They are so far one of the most outspoken news media in mainland China. And the price on amazon is about right. It would cost you $260 to subscribe from publisher directly. I cannot comment on the delivery though since I haven't tried the amazon subscription (our library carries it)."
372090,2,Constantly improving,"Vanguard had a shaky start for sure, but since the launch almost two years ago it has improved constantly. The game is still not perfect, but the playerbase seems to be growing, and I have a blast every time I log in!"
372100,2,Fit like a glove,"These are a little expensive but are very good quality. I wear size 10 and the only negative thing I can think of is that my toes are just a little longer than the spaces, but I would rather have that then have them be too long for my toes. My toes cramp up sometimes and these socks seem to help."
372120,2,Merrell Mens Moab Ventilator Hiking Walnut Leather Shoe 9.0,The shoes are comfortable and well made. The only problem I had is that they are smaller than the normal sizes. I wear a size 9 medium in all other shoes and had to exchange these for a 9.5 because the 9 was too short. Width was fine in both.
372247,2,The Most Sublime Voice on the Planet,"While David Daniels' brilliant coloratura is in evidence in several numbers on this disc (a breathtaking ""Destructive War,"" from Belshazzar, and ""Despair no more shall wound me,"" from Semele), it's in the slower, more contemplative arias that his singing reaches the sublime. ""He was despised"" and ""Oh Lord, whose mercies numberless"" show Daniels at his incomparable best, with his unbelievable breath control, melting legato, and exquisite vocal coloring. This is the most instantly recognizable and beautiful voice before the public today."
372307,2,Love Bella Andre,"I must say that I am a new fan of Bella Andre. I love to read and find that I read faster than ""my authors"" publish. (lol) Often times, I find myself browsing my kindle looking for something new. When I came across Bella Andre, I instantly fell in love with her work. She is a must read author that has been added to my list of authors. Hope you enjoy!"
372373,2,Every American has a duty to watch this!,"People of this country, wake up and realize that the lies our corporate owned government has perpetrated can no longer be hidden. Criminals are running our country...please watch and judge for yourself!"
372399,2,Hillarious moments,"Downey Jr. does not come off as ""likable"" in this movie. It would be nice if he were a bit less of a jerk so you could sort of sympathise with his character. Galifaianakis is hillarious in this movie. I understand not everyone will appreciate his humor, and I think it boils down to; if you like Zach's humor, you will like this movie. He's sort of created a persona in his last two major releases, Due Date, and The Hangover, where he is this dim witted, weird (but in a good, funny way), loner. I don't know if he will ever be able to expand beyond that role at this point."
372466,2,ALPINESTARS JACKET RAIN RJ-5,"Excellent, just follow the size chart from their web page , and it will fit perfectly..."
372505,2,Knots & Splices,"Knots is Splices is an excellent introduction to the subject of tying knots. The pictures do a pretty good job of guiding you through the tying and the accompanying text gives you a fair idea of what the knot is useful for. If you are like me and you use some of these knots but only very occasionally this book will give you enough information to relearn the knot in an instant with just a glance at the correct page and picture. Doesn't include all the knots needed for an specific sport like climbing, fishing, or sailing but it does include a fair sampling of knots used in many sports and outdoor activities. Keep in mind there are several later editions of this book which may be even better."
372578,2,Sony HT-6800DP 5-Disc Progressive Scan Home Theater System,"Very economical and a good value for the price. Assembly is simple, and instructions cover the basics. Too bad my ex-wife took the system with her when she left."
372597,2,The Dogs Love These,"We have two dogs, a lab mix and a pug. They both devour these and I like to give them these treats since they are actually good for them and don't contain a lot of preservatives. These are moist treats, which I think the dogs find more appealing than the dry ones."
372605,2,Yay ceramique!,"I'm not going to pretend I know a lot about these thermal goos, but I can say this was easy to apply, and that in in conjunction with a new heatsink dropped my running temperatures by 15 degrees.It -didn't- come with a spatula (boo!) or instructions (boo!) but I was able to look online and find all the things I needed (yay!)"
372641,2,Great nights sleep!,"You sleep so sound with this pillow, you sleep through normal home noises that might normally wake you. My wife and I have spent hundreds of dollars on memory foam, down feather, select comfort and more, but these gel pillows are like a dream come true when it comes to a great nights sleep."
372642,2,perfect for a mobile IT kit,I was looking for something to throw in my car so I could have some basic IT supplies on hand (you're always on call when you are an IT guy). I was able to unstitch the two cd book things to make it one large open compartment and use one of the cd books for common CD/DVDs for computer repair. That left me with quite a bit of room for the IT supplies. works great.usb wireless adapter360GB external harddrive (laptop size)Sharpie (of course)screwdriverpenthumbdrive with Ultimate boot disk and some added tools.

372652,2,Great show!!,"I hadn't planned on watching this show when it first came on tv. I'd seen the previews for it, but thought, ""Naaah"". My husband had taken a day off and was flipping through channels when he ran up on a Leverage marathon. He watched one and was hooked. Of course, he made me watch one when I got home and I was hooked too!! It's terrific!! The characters are great and the actors are so well-matched and interact so well and their chemistry is great. We hadn't seen the show from the beginning which is why I had to buy the whole first season. This show is like a bag of chips -- you can't watch just one!!!"
372760,2,"Recommended for every ""hard gainer""!","This is a great book for anyone interested in improving their physique, especially after failing in convential methods. However, the book will be sometimes hard to understand for anyone not previously exposed to weight training and familiar with a lot of the terms and procedures involved. Also, the author keeps stressing the need for correct technique throughout this book, but never gives details on technique for even the major exercises. In my opinion it is necessary to also buy ""Insider's tell-all handbook to weight-training technique"" by the same author to make full use of ""Beyond Brawn""."
372765,2,A Great read,"I didn't know what to expect when I first opened the pages of this novel, but I gotta say this was a great book. I found it to be an absolute page turner and found it very suspsenseful. I would deifnitely recommend this book to any sci fi fan, and the best news is, that this is only book one in an entire series of books. Yeah, as you read on the plot seems more and more outrageous,butwith the unexpected twists and turns the suspense is overwhelming and much rewarded by the reader throughout the series. I would recommend this book and continuing series to anyone."
372767,2,Excellent sequel!,"I read this book before I read the first Area 51 book. It was confusing, but extremely helpful after I read the first book. The book starts off exactly where the first one left off. With the discovery of the Airlia held up on Mars, as well as a strange device in Ethiopia's Rift Valley, six craft head for Earth to land in Central Park. But with a discovery of another gaurdian computer in China, it seems the Airlia aren't as nice as they were imagined in the first 'Area 51' book. Characters differed very much from the first book. Mike Turcotte seems more of an easy going guy. Lisa Duncan becomes more of a character, and a romance seems to be blooming between her and Turcotte. A good deal of suspense and action keeps this book going. Eagerly awaiting for the release of ""The Mission"""
372808,2,"Amazing, Emotional, SO ROMANTIC and SO TRUE !","I bought it 2 days ago, and since...I watched it 4 times in a row. LOVE IT. What a masterpiece ! And it worthes any penny ! Love it , love it, love it !!!Nancy Meyers: BRAVO !"
372837,2,Basic that is what I need,"This is a basic radio alarm clock. Easy to use, good sound quality. The green light is a bit too strong at night that I have to move it away. Overall, it is good enough for me in my bedroom."
372924,2,drawing faces,I love almost all of Van Gogh's work. It was only when I tried to draw faces that I realized how materful he was in the many faces he drew. This book should be an inspiration to the student concerning what is possible.
373020,2,We like it.,Love the duel alarms. My wife gets up about an hour before I do. So now she don't have to reset the alarm every morning.
373080,2,GREAT ACTING!,"If you are an actor, do NOT miss this film. Buy it used, rent it any way you can!!! This film never fails to inspire me! Stevenson is a jewel and Rickman is incredible. You never doubt them once! See this movie!!!"
373144,2,Best Car Seat Ever,"I did the research thru word of mouth and Consumer Reports, I must admit I did fall for the negative review from Consumers and purchased another car seat. I purchased the Cosco Alpha Omega convertible. Let me tell you after three hours of trying to install it into my SUV, I gave up and returned it. The seat would slide from side and side after it was properly installed. I purchased the Marathon and after three minutes the car seat was installed. The seat would not budge. The LATCH system is easy to us and since it has individual tension releases on each side it makes it very easy to operate. The car seat is costly but its worth it from an installation and safety perspective. There are web sites that offer the marathon at a discounted rate www.travelingtikes.com. Also in NJ buy buy baby is offering 10% coupons. Buy this and you will not be disappointed."
373204,2,Always A Fair Representation Of America's Many Denominations,"Extremely helpful when researching various group's beliefs. Unbiased, and fair to the individual Christian denominations that number in the hundreds here in America. So many churches. So many groups you may never have heard of. For example; when a certain minister in my church gave testimony that he once served in the Church of the Living God denomination as a pastor, a group formerly unheard of to me, I used this handbook for research into that group's background. I love studying the different beliefs that are a part of this nation's freedom to practice them, according to the dictates of our hearts."
373262,2,educationally and wonderfully fun,i have so much fun with this game it makes me wish there were more games like this. it makes learning fun

373312,2,exactly what I needed,"I have 3 schmop mops and have totally worn out the covers. These were exacly what I needed and fit perfectly, plus they were cheaper than the ones sold in the cleaning store."
373325,2,Good read for the money,"I was looking for a good fantasy/ Sci-fi book for under 5.00 and thought I'd try this. Once I got into the world the author created, it was so unique and well written I finished it quickly. The character development was rich and descriptive. I thought it would work well as a series but, it is a stand alone. The setting was just different enough from our own to make it relatable yet very ""other worldly""."
373332,2,A whirlwind of triumph!,"A real page turner, I couldn't put this book down! It is the thriller you never want to end...but leaves you thinking even after you've managed to put it down. Curiosity causing and belief testing...you'll love every minute!"
373337,2,A interesting flip effect deck.,I have to admit that I really picked up this structure deck because I was curious about the Exodia looking guy on the cover (and no it isn't him or a variation of him) as others have said this deck's main focus is on the work of continuously using the flip effects of various monsters and monsters with low offense but high defense (but to go from offense to defense they supply you with Shield and Sword) while this deck is interesting right off the bat I can name a few flaws it has. This deck is weak against Nobleman of Cross Out and more importantly Light of Intervention. This really is a good structure deck if you want to use cards that not many others use.
373347,2,Action Packed Thriller!,"This book picks up where ""The American"" left off. President DaveBrenneman is locked in a struggle with California governor Richard Fiske.The issue in the election is the Iraq war.Ryan Kealey returns in this bookas the hero. He is reunited with his partner Naomi Kharmai. They make thediscovery that William Vanderveen(jason March) is still alive. He has him a new partner Yasmin Raseen. She is a stone killer like him.Ryan and Naomidiscover a plan to cause death and destruction at the U.N. The former VicePresident of Iraq has initiated this plan as a method to return to power.Kealey and Kharmai can get no one to believe them. They are running out of time to stop this catastrophe from happening. This book has an action packed ending.Be sure to read this book to see who wins the confrontation between Kealey and Vanderveen. A definite good book."
373401,2,Movie...Halo 4,"Purchased for Grandson for Christmas, 2012. It has been viewed many times since then. He says the movie is, ""Awesome""."
373437,2,Great resource,"This is an easy read with lots of good strategies for good parenting. It makes you reflect on your own areas to grow as a parent. Adressess different areas from tantrums, to computer and internet use, to anger management. Great resource."
373455,2,SATISFIED,We ordered this cd for a gift for a family member. She heard this cd on the radio here and we had no trouble obtaining the correct one at Amamzon. Delivery quick. No hassles. We are always very satisfied with Amazon.com.
373499,2,What a page turner,"I could not put this book down! Ayun Halliday captures the joys and frustrations of mothering so beautifully. She manages to talk about those dark four o'clock in the afternoon moments where your kids drive you nuts with great accuracy, but also with so much wit. If you are a parent, this will ring many bells and make you laugh out loud. If you are not a parent, it becomes a gripping story about contemporary life and the juggling act that parenting without the support of an extended family has become."
373613,2,Water Hammock,We have found these hammocks to be wonderful and relaxing. Great for the backyard pool. The children as well as the adults.
373630,2,A nice 'n easy warm breeze,"If you want a laid back, relaxed Basie band...this is the cd. No screaching trumpets...no shrill soprano saxophones...no extented drum solos...just honest straight ahead great jazz. The ever present Freddie Green rhythm guitar laying the foundation for some swingin' charts mostly arranged by Sam Nestico. Sweets Edison makes a guest appearance on a nostalgic track ""How Sweet it is"". It also features Willie Cook on trumpet. To my knowledge Willie is he only musician to play with both the Duke Ellington and Count Basie big bands.(Clark Terry played with Basie's small group). So if the temperature is about 82, and there's a warm breeze...kick back with Basie at his best."
373663,2,NFG Kicks Ass!,"There self-titled debut is better but only because it has more songs every song on this is good as well as nothing gold can stay,new found glory,and from the screen to your sterio definatly get this,get them all new found glory kicks major [butt] there the best pop-punk band out!"
373684,2,Piece of cake,"I've used this card in a few different laptops now. It's super easy to install. I just throw in the CD, run the setup, insert the card when told to and it just works. Right now it's hooked up to an older laptop with Win2K serving up Rhapsody in my entertainment center without any hiccups. I haven't had any drops, need to reboot because it can't see the network or any kind of issues at all. It's nice to own something that just works."
373781,2,Everything Good,"Everything was good with this order. I got the item, as advertised, in a timely fashion."
373880,2,the best cowboy poetry book ever,"This is such a tender view of America's favorite guy. I really enjoyed the range of time spanned by this book. I bought it originally in hardcover and then lent it to someone and never got it back. But the paperback is very high quality. You'll read ""Lasca"" and two of Waddie Mitchell's poems and lots of Omar Barker. It is a classic sure to please anyone. I read it aloud to my wife and she cried. I read it to my buddy at work and he laughed out loud at some of the poems. It's a great book."
373930,2,Texasabilene,"The item (clubhouse games)is excellent even though used. I have noproblem with it.I do however have a problem with the company Texasabilene. When you are selling a product, you should be professional. We had to wait more than double the time because we were sent a game case with nothing in it. It took some time to be sent the game finally and we are also in Texas."
373934,2,"Lots of fun, price compare first","This toy was given to my 3 yr old son for Christmas and he loves it. It's huge, but it stores all the tools and any others you have managed to collect. It comes with so many different items, we have fun playing with it everyday. There is also room inside for me to store a sheet to put down so the dough doesn't stick to the carpet. My only warning: price compare first. The price on Amazon fluctuates, so when my sister bought this it was $20 cheaper at a big name toy store. Also, the review that notes the ""picker upper"" doesn't work well and the roller has to have all the cutters on it, that's true, but it doesn't take away from the overall fun of the toy for me or my son. A great gift idea too."
373956,2,A genuine classic,"This is a proper literary novel for grown-ups. The prose is beautiful, the characters memorable and nuanced, and the portrait of the cultures of Sibornal convincing and rich.Really, it's astounding that the Helliconia trilogy is not held in higher regard. It is one of the very best things that's ever come out of science fiction.The best book in the series is probably Summer, but this is a close second. My main gripe is that I wish it had been longer.Abro hakmo astab to all detractors!"
373966,2,Provides over 50 blocks in four sizes,"Nancy Johnson-Srebro's Block Magic provides over 50 blocks in four sizes, using rotary-cut shapes and simple piecing to make their construction very easy. An excellent, recommended quilter's guide."
374047,2,Amazing Dijon,"My wife purchased the organic version of this mustard from Whole Foods. When she told me how much she paid, I was pissed and wanted to hate it. Fortunatly/unfortunately, it was the best dijon mustard I ever had. I have since told friends about this and they love the product as well. I was happy to find better prices online. FYI...It does have a kick to it."
374152,2,Good Book,My niece was excited to receive this book. It had good examples for her to practice her new skill of calligraphy.
374281,2,get it,"jindra is a highly trained professional dancer. she is lovely, elegant and a fantastic teacher.the other reviewer who complained about the counting must not understand that counting by a dance teacher is normal and expected in high level and professional dance lessons. the counting facilitates understanding of where the movement fits in with the music. perhaps the other reviewer does not understand how dance works with music in a numeric system.jindra has lovely posture and attention should be paid to the sections regarding posture. this is where you will learn to carry yourself as a dancer!over all, a great dvd. try it!"
374287,2,A keeper!,This is a must buy! This is a keeper. It is a necessary reference for all Christian libraries. I refer to it often.
374309,2,Nice cooker,"Nice and big (for a bachelor, anyway), and works just fine. Unlike my previous cooker, the ceramic pot is easy to clean. The old one absorbed food and then oozed it out forever. Gak. My use of it is limited to soups and stews, which it cooks just fine. Being a vegan, I can't comment on how it works with pig snouts or cow brains."
374333,2,For my Panda Obcessed 10 yr old Grandaughter,"I would give this kid the world, I did in fact give her about 10 Panda related gifts and she loved them all, it is a really cute, well made shirt."

374336,2,"Thank you for ""bundling!""","I love my portable curling iron, and this pack of a year's worth of cartridges allows me to not worry so much about running out, or purchasing them multiple times per year!"
374365,2,RUBEN DOES IT AGAIN!!!!,"Ruben and Kanye are a ""dream team"". The remix of ""What if"" is off the chain. The musical genius of these two very talented young men is very evident to anyone who has an ear for music. Good job Ruben and Kanye!!!"
374367,2,"biggest offspring fan YOU will ever meet, punk","real good music to drive to. kinda short. when your in prison sucks. but hey, you do too"
374445,2,Great Entertainment with Friends!,"We recently had a fantastic evening playing Brainstrain with some close friends. Right from the start of the game, we knew it would be fun to play as we laughed at the silliness of how we looked wearing the bands around our heads that held a Brainstrain card identifying who, what or where we were. Since the game lets players choose what to write on their cards, I found it was interesting to see what kinds of ideas our creative friends came up with! The ""question and answer"" sessions were wild, as we raced against the minute timer to guess our identities. Frequently we were amazed at how good we were at guessing some of the more obscure items, and then were totally dense on the obvious ones! I'm sure that Brainstrain is a game we will enjoy playing many times."
374446,2,Lot of locations,I just finished reading this book and was happy with the amount of information provided for all the locations around the Island. Some of the info I already new but some I didn't. I am looking forward to trying out some of the spots Tom highlighted. This book didn't go into a lot of How-to but I didn't think it was going to anyway. Well worth the read. Can't wait for spring.
374447,2,Induction cookware,"I purchased this set for my new induction stove. For the money, this cookware is much heavier than expected and well constructed. I am pleased with its performance so far. My only complaint is that the small saucepan is too small to fit any of the elements on my stove and I would have liked a larger frypan with a lid included. All in all, a good buy."
374505,2,Fantastic,"I loved this book, couldn't put it down. I finished the book in one day, looking forward to reading the authors other books, just wish there was more to Kristina's story."
374580,2,Great Tub!!!!,I love this tub and so does my daughter. It seems very comfortable for her. She just lays there and gets washed up with no problem. She has not cried once. The cradle part is one of the best features. That should have been invented years ago. This tub makes giving your newborn a bath hassle free.
374581,2,This tub is great!,We love this tub! Our daughter has been very comfortable in this tub since day one and it is very easy to work with since it has one side for newborns and the other side for infants/toddlers who can sit up more or less on their own. It has a drain plug but we have found it easier to just dump the bath water out into our bathtub as well as letting this infant tub dry in there. Definitely recommend this tub to all new parents!
374656,2,great gift,"Great product. My parents have had this plate for over 30 yrs and we have used it for birthdays, anniversaries, etc. They gave each of us 4 kids a plate about 10 yrs ago for Christmas, and I have used it with my kids for good grades, placing at cross country meets, b-days and for getting your room cleaned. The pen works great to write the date and event on the back of the plate and the ink does not wash off in the sink or dishwasher. I ordered 5 plates and have given 2 away for wedding gifts. So far, everyone who has received one has loved it. It packs well, if someone is moving out of the country too. This has become a treasured heirloom!!!"
374705,2,I bought it 3 years ago and I still use it for my professional guidance,"As project risk management is a daunting factor to mitigate failures in software engineering, I bought this book to learn ways to mitigate risks in project management by using techniques presented in this book. As a veteran in software engineering field and have been leading critical projects, I still use it as a good tool to learn and adopt suggestions and techniques from the book in my professional career.I strongly recommend for project managers and technical leads in software and automation development."
374708,2,Great tool holder!,This item works exactly as expected. Seems very sturdy and grips the handles of the various mops and brooms nicely.
374737,2,Eureka,"Great show! It's addictive. I haven't finished the series but every show, starting at season 1, has been fantastic. Wish it wasn't ending."
374749,2,If you are a Glen Miller or Lester B. fan you will love this,"The sound quality is pretty good. I have no complaints. I especially enjoyed listening to ""Bell Bottom Trousers"" and ""Seems Like Old Times"" these are definite repeaters. It's also handy to have around the holidays as you get the traditional verison of Auld Lang Syne. A definite must for all you Glen Miller fans."
374801,2,One of Jose's finest albums,"Jose Feliciano's 1969 live recording at the London Palladium is one of his fans' most treasured albums. The 2 CD set captures the electricity of Jose's performances as he sings his standard hit songs, including ""Hi-Heel Sneakers"", ""Rain"", ""California Dreamin'"" and of course, ""Light My Fire"". There are also nice songs that Jose sings in Spanish, especially ""El Jenete"", and his own instrumental version of Ernesto Lecuona's ""Malaguena"". However, the highlight may be Jose's encore, the dramatic ""La Entrada de Bilbao"", on which he similates the playing of drums as the battle ends. The main drawback is Jose's comedy bit, a segment that just falls flat and detracts from an otherwise bravo performance."
374942,2,So far so good.,"First impression is great. The water tank is much larger than my old iron. Not filling it every 15 minutes saves time. This iron is heavier than I expected, maybe that's all the water weight. I did alot of research before buying this iron and I'm not disappointed. Would buy it again."
375023,2,The perfect book to climb the corporate ladder,I was given the title of this book at a seminar I attended. This was the best investment for my career. No school can teach you how to play the game the way this book does. I love the way Mr. Coleman puts the language of the book in very simple terms. If you are intersted in getting ahead in your company follow the rules that Mr. Coleman lays out and you will be in management/upper management in know time.
375040,2,Cute little kitchen!,"Cute wooden mini play kitchen! Its the right size for our NYC apartment. I like this better than the other plastic kitchens that are out there visually. The price is right and it was pretty easy to put together. We added some Melissa and Doug wooden food to go with it. This is for my 14 month old son who likes to rummage in the kitchen cabinets, etc. when I am trying to cook. While it doesn't completely stop him it gives him something of his own to play with in there."
375062,2,Essential for Modeler's Library,"If I remenber correctly, this was written in England. This was a well written and well laid out book which had so much information. This is one of the best books (of the few) that are written on the subject. The writing is superb and clear."
375073,2,Excellent Book!,"Absolutely excellent. One of my favorite trilogies, and the one I found it the most hard to put down."
375099,2,Hands Down the Best Kids Artist that We've Found,"Not only does our 18 month old daughter love this CD (and artist), so does our 9 year old nephew and both my husband and I. This is some of most infectious music I've heard in years, and I can't recommend it enough."
375156,2,Good quality disc,"I have loved this movie since i was a kid (25 now). It reminds me of Santa Claus is coming to town but it's just Easter now. Anyways, the bunny has fuzzy ears on the case and I thought that was a cute touch. Anyways, good buy for a classic."
375186,2,IMMATURE IS TRUELY TALENTED,"I LOVE IMMATURE BUT THEY DIDN'T GET MUCH FEEDBACK FROM THIS CD.dON'T GET ME WRONG BUT,"" WE GOT IT"" THE CD IS THE BEST CD THAT THEY EVER CAME OUT WITH THEY WERE SO TIGHT BUT THEY WENT JUST A LITTLE DOWN HILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HOPE THE NEXT CD WILL BE BETTER THAN ""THE JOURNEY"" HOWEVER I STILL LOVE ALL OF THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!"
375189,2,"Works great, great price!","Very easy to use and the light is very bright and easy to focus on the food. The neck is very long, too long for my needs, but easy enough to just coil once around to make it shorter. Has clamp option, and magnetic base that works great! Great Price! Need I say more?"
375218,2,Really good buy!,"I recently bought this seat for my 6 month old son. I was really looking for something where I could bath both my kids at the same time (my daughter is 22 months). Anything to save time. Well this seat is perfect. Now that he can sit up well, I can put them both in the tub and put enough water in there for my daughter to have fun playing around. He loves the bath so much more beucase he too can splash, play, and see everything that is going on. I read a few reviews and there was some negativily about the when you pull the kids out of the seat they may get some red marks on the top of thier theighs, and that has happened. But they are mostly just from movign around and the marks go away right after you take them out. Just as long as you pull them out carefully you will not hurt them. I higly recommend this seat."
375252,2,I recomment this tank.,Yippee! This tank does not leak. Had a bad experience with a tank from Wal-Mart. This is a very attractive tank. I recommend it.
375256,2,Great album,I got this as a gift for someone and ended up making a backup for myself. Really enjoyed it. Also service was fast and efficient
375296,2,Love him!,"This is the best series. Too bad there isn't more. Smart, funny - why can't we make tv like that in America?"
375342,2,The Empty Mirror is Full of Thought and Artistic Vision,A truly brillant treatment of the subject. Goes deep into the Philosophy and motives of Facism and Nazi Racism. All Words are Hilter's own (!) taken from various sources and acted superbly by Norman Rodway. This makes the film so interesting. Freud and Hitler spar in a interesting postmodern dialogue. Hope it is on DVD soon!
375385,2,"Sabbaths' best years(yes, I'm serious!)","This compilation album is a very entertaining journey through Sabbaths' post Ozzzy/Dio years. The Ozzy albums were great, but really Tony Martin was a much more subtle and sophisticated singer that Ozzy or even Dio. Tracks like 'The Shining' and 'Devil and Daughter' boast strong heavy rock grooves with good melodic songwriting, soaring vocals and entertaining, mystical lyrical subjects. Alot of Sabbath fans won't even look at this post- Ozzy stuff, but that is just pig-headed ignorance- this is good rock music. There are also tracks from the Ian Gillan/ Glen Hughes eras and the second Dio reunion which are good as well, but for me the real gold is the Tony Martin stuff- he is just an exceptional vocalist. If you can look beyond all the controversy of 'is it true Sabbath or not' and just hear the music, you will find a lot to enjoy from these years."
375413,2,Great blues album,Sonny Rhodes has a classic blues voice and a style that reminds me of 70s classics. This is a terrific album.
375420,2,History the way it should be written.,"Warren Carroll is a master at his craft. He writes history the way it should be written. His histories are true-to-life: full of heroes and villains engaged in the great struggle of good against evil. You'll find no economic or material determinism here. Carroll states at the outset that he is presenting an unabashedly Catholic history of Christendom. But, rest assured, these histories are no whitewash. The Catholic Church is presented with all its warts along with all of its glories. I have just finished the fist two volumes of this series and look forward to starting the third (and buying the yet-to-be-published volumes). The only way these volumes could have been improved would have been with the addition of maps helping to set the stage where the history is played out. Some of the ancient place names are obscure and many modern place names do not correspond exactly with similar ancient ones."
375496,2,Beautiful blu-ray transfer!!!,"This is one absolutely FANTASTIC looking Blu-ray. Just buy it, and marvel at this cinematic and comedic wonder. nuff said."
375500,2,laugh fast! Clean too!,They don't make them like they used to and this movie proves that! I saw this movie during my HS Senior trip...so you might be able to figure out how old I am!!!!! This movie took a permanent place in my memory and it still remains. Spellbound by funny mystery. Get it you won't be dissapointed. smile.
375514,2,very good massager,Very effective. I love it. For the price it is a great deal. Almost like a professional human. It is easy to use and take anywhere.The only down side it is a little heavy for my wife.
375563,2,".....""Don't Let It Be Forgot.....That Once There Was A Spot.......""","For me, to finally hear this in all of it's digital splendor,is both an absolute joy, and emotional pain to hear. The joy, obvious. To listen to Julie Andrews soar, brought painfully home, that her voice has been ruined,and how much that must be emotionally wrenching for her, today."
375582,2,Does exactly what it is suppsed to do,"If you are looking for an audio splitter for an ipod, your computer, or whatever other audio device you may have this will serve your needs. No problems, works as it should."
375749,2,Great service!,I got the book when I was told I would. It came in good condition. No complaints from me!
375819,2,Dyson DC07 Cyclone Vacuum - the PERFECT PURPLE Vacuum,"After considerable research, I bought this vacuum and I LOVE it. As incredible as it sounds, when I vacuumed my living room with this vacuum -- I COULDN'T BELIEVE the difference -- my rug looks revitalized and clean! After cleaning the room, there was so much cat and dog hair, I had to empty the bin..... That was easier than replacing/throwing out a bag by far..This purple vacuum practically purrs when you use it - it's very quiet. The only negative is the ""manually"" wound up cord. I'll gladly live with the cord ........."
375894,2,Works well. Runs cool (cat dislikes it),"It just works and works well. Compared to my old switch, this device runs much cooler which is not appreciated by our cat because she can't use it as a tummy warmer."
375947,2,Great!,I bought this owl for my 1 year old son. He loves the owls at the zoo. I feel safe letting him play with it. It is very cute!
376117,2,"Wow, that is a big watch or just ""Wow!""","I usually get ""Wow! That is a big watch"" or just ""Wow, nice watch."" I say, yeah I bought it on the web and I had no idea how big it was going to be. This watch is big. It's surprisingly not very heavy at all. Very well put together. The band is some space age type super vulcanize rubber. I'm only half joking. I don't know what the stuff is, but it's very comfortable and super durable.The glass is amazingly scratch resistant. I've looked at the face a couple of times after whacking it on a door or a computer or whatever and thought, ""this is it, scratch city"" and nothing. Not even the slightest scratch. Again, I think Nike is using alien technology - probably from the Vulcans.I don't use any of the features. There are a few I'm sure. I just haven't been interested in any of the features from day one. It was really strange, I just took the instruction booklet and hucked in a drawer.That's all I have to say on this watch. Oh yeah, did i mention it's huge."
376131,2,Lavender Hip Scarf,"Very good product for the money! I do not see anything outwardly wrong with it. I wear it all the time when I do my Shimmy exercises. I love the sound it makes and it has a beautiful appearance. I am very surprised on the quality. I expected it to be easily to detect the imperfections. I am very pleased with it. It is doing what I intended: super price, aesthetic pleasure and tingling sound when dancing. What more could I ask?"
376153,2,Excellent Blend of Christianity with the Paranormal!!!,"Loved the book! Read it in one sitting. Looking for more from this author in this genre. Enjoyed the blending of the christianity with the paranormal and the deep South! ""And don't call me Shirley!"""
376198,2,"Tender, sexy, unforgettable","The concluding book in Jill Barnett's excellent trilogy is a gorgeous story of young love, with all its attendant heartbreak and passion. Sophie's journey of the heart is one you'll never forget. Brava!"
376255,2,FIFA 2001-A Good Game,"OK Let me get started. First of all it don't have all the hair styles that the version for PS2 and PC have, also you can't set the stadium you want to play in like PS2 and PC, but it has more weather conditions than the PS2 and PC have (which I like) and you can play in the ""Dusk"" time of day, which you can't in PS2 and PC (I like that too). And you can't set the weather and time of day at ""Random"" which PS2 and PC can (that don't matter to me much). So that's my review, I think it's a ""4 Star"" game. It's OK. Thanks for hearing me out. C ya!"
376261,2,Loved it!,I've been hearing his songs on the Music Choice radio for years. Decided to buy CD. Very happy with it. Just wish he was still recording!
376306,2,Worth the price of two discs,"I didn't think that there was anything one could do with this music to make it better, but it's now been done. The sound is much better, and the sequencing of the tunes really brings this into focus. Carlos teamed with Alice Coltrane and with John McLaughlin, not to mention a host of other greats, such as Jack DeJohnette(drums), Dave Holland(bass), Tom Coster(electric piano), Larry Young(organ), Billy Cobham(drums), Mike Shrieve(drums), etc."
376318,2,competent artist,"I really enjoy her voice, her lyrics and her melodies. Several of her CD's live in my car so traveling is always enjoyable."
376322,2,Feynman's typical excitement and enthusiasm are evident.,"In this collection of audio lectures on advanced quantum mechanics and related topics, Richard Feynman exhibits his typical excitement and enthusiasm for the subject he knew so well. These lectures are best listened to while viewing the text version of the Feynman Lectures, as the topics are complex and difficult to conceptualize without the printed page. The pages, however, really come to life when you actually hear Feynman give the lectures. A much fuller picture of quantum mechanics is obtained than by employing the text or the tape separately. These publications constitute a wonderful way to acquire an appreciation for and an increased knowledge of physics from one of its best teachers."
376327,2,Splendid Performances of Schubert by Schiff but....,"I concur with an earlier reviewer who wasn't impressed with the sound quality of these early 1990s digital recording of some of Schubert's most familiar shorter works for the piano. However, I still highly recommend it based solely on Andras Schiff's beautiful playing. I've had this compilation sitting on my shelves for over a year and finally had a chance to listen to it a few days ago; despite the recording's flaws, Schiff's playing is majestic, poetic, demonstrating his empathy for Schubert's music. Both sets of Impromptus are played with ample dignity and grace; the same holds true for the Landler (waltzes) and Moments Musicaux. It's a pity that Decca's usually high fidelity standards weren't in evidence here, or else I would say that this two CD set would deserve recognition as among the finest recordings of these Schubert pieces currently available."
376418,2,the best thing you will buy,"We bought this swing before our baby was born, and it has been the best thing we have bought, since our arrival home. It has a gentle swinging motion. When I read some of the other reviews about it swinging to hard, I tried it out, and it does when there isn't a baby in it, but with the weight it is just right. My baby was very small when we brought him home, so I did put a folded blanket under him because he slid down and his neck crunched up, but since he's grown it is better. He will get in this swing any time, and usually goes to sleep immediately. It is by far the best thing we have as far as his comfort. We have even let him sleep during the night in it, because he seems so comfortable."
376449,2,"Micro-Go-Round, Turntable 10""","I have installed and used the Nordic Ware Microwave Micro-Go-Round 10"" turntable for over 30 days now. I find that it does exactly what it was advertized to do. It operates when a dish is placed upon it, and it is easy to rewind....just don't overwind....I am completely satisfied with this product."
376520,2,Excellent,"An excellent compilation of gospel songs. Elvis at his best. I enjoy getting to hear Elvis having a laugh and just having fun with his friends on one of the discs. I especially loved How Great Thou Art and He Touched Me. These are amazing songs sung by an amazing performer. With nearly 30 spiritual and traditional hymns on each of the three discs, there is something for everyone.Something I love about Elvis is that he wasn't ashamed of his Savior and didn't care what the rest of the secular world felt about it."
376665,2,This product changed my life,"What can I say that already hasn't been said? I'm in my mid 30s and have been battling pretty serious underarm sweating since high school. I tried *everything* to mask the problem...multiple shirts, jackets, undershirts with underarm pads, you name it. Nothing worked - I simply soaked right through anything I threw at the problem. At work? What a nightmare. I either avoided or escaped situations where I had to get in front of a group. Talk about a career limiting issue.Then I found this product, and.....wow! The sweating has *completely* disappeared, even after 2 or 3 days without usage. Certain Dri is a miracle in a 1.2 fl oz bottle. The only complaint is underarm discomfort if too much product is used, and a little compensentory sweating in other areas.I would easily pay 4x time price.Thank you Certain Dri!"
376705,2,"""I got up and opened the door of my hut, and there she was, framed in the doorway like a painting . . . ""","I read Whiteman and couldn't put it down. I'm not much of a reader of fiction but this novel opened my eyes to Western Africa like nothing I've read before. Tony D'Souza is a rising star and this, his first novel, is a book that will live with you for weeks after. I was fortunate enough to hear Tony read portions of the book at the college where I work. My students sat for 45 minutes quiet and enthralled. I wish my words had that kind of magic. One faculty member,in fact, has decided on adopting it as one of her required readings for next semester.You will enjoy it and it will move you."
376742,2,Words cannot describe...,"... but I'll try. I saw the film in-between my mother's two bouts with breast/bone cancer. At the time, I was completely in awe of Emma Thompson's incredibly personal portrayal of this woman; now, I'm still in awe of her, but also of how accurately and humanely this difficult yet wonderful story treats the main character's struggle at the end of her life's journey. This year in particular has involved quite a lot of death in my family, that of my in-laws, and several of my co-workers. I find myself constantly coming back to the scene with Vivian and her professor discussing the punctuation of ""death, thou shalt die."" Just a comma separates us from life and life eternal, the professor tells her - not an exclamation point, not a dramatic pause... just a comma. Indeed, this movie will stay with you, and may even help you with your own struggles in coping with death."
376756,2,Bias Unveiled,"Visions of the East explores mass media biases and prejudices towards the Arab. It's an easy, interesting read; it focuses on examples and backrounds as a means of illustrating the inherant reacism (""Arabism"") in popular culture. Too often we don't realize the stereotypes being publicized are just that- stereotypes. Visions of the East reminds the reader to look deeper, to examine material before absorbing it. An excellent book for better understanding the rampant Eurocentrism in media and film and the reasons behind it."
376784,2,Great french press for smaller volumes,"My girlfriend got me this french press for Christmas. I'm a tea drinker and this press is wonderful for my use. My teas (brewed with loose leaves) come out more pure, without all the sediment that I used to get with my brew pot.I do agree that the ""3 cups"" claim is a bit odd - not sure what kind of cups they're referring to, but this french press just perfectly fills my slightly over-sized mug -- essentially one serving of tea - but this is perfect for mornings or evenings when I'm just making a mug for myself.The build quality is nice, the glass is easily removable, and the press is sturdy when sitting on the counter top.Overall I'm very happy with this La Cafetiere french press and I definitely recommend it to people who are making smaller amounts of coffee or tea."
376806,2,SUPER WATCH AT A GREAT PRICE!,I purchased this watch for myself in mid November. The watch is top quality from the feel when wearing it to the deadly accurate timekeeping ability. I am so happy with this purchase I have decide to order one for my brother as a birthday gift. I am sure that he will appreciate it. Way to go Invicta for building a quality timepiece and Amazon for carrying it at such an affordable price!
376842,2,Perfect,"My vet recommended these and advised me to use only half at a time to make them last; she was right. These really are great, and easy to just slip a pill inside the pouch, tear it in half then throw the unused half back in the bag, seal it up, then just form the treat around the next pill."
376862,2,Help me please,"Hello to everyone.I would ask you for a help so if you can help me please.I'm looking for informations about ""No Mercy"" and I need their songs,but what I exactly need is the text of song ""When I die"" and song ""Where do you go"" So please help me and if you have any informations please write me an e mail.THANK YOU"
377006,2,Nice Picture always!,"Great 180 degree veiwing. It is true to the specs. Use in bedroom, wife likes but wished we had gotten a little larger LCD Flat Screen TV. Would recommend."
377020,2,Better than on time,I could not find this product in the stores that I shop in.It was easy to purchase online and it arrived before the expected date.Thanks
377032,2,We enjoyed it!,"Awesome seeing all these action stars together!!! It was gut ripping gun fights thru the whole movie, but worth it to see these guys together!"
377175,2,very sturdy and nice,This is a very sturdy patio umbrella stand. I was surprised that it was actually quite heavy. I'm happy with the purchase.
377185,2,One of my favorites!,"Not only is ""Makin' Up With You"" one of my favorite Chalee Tennison songs, but it's also one of my favorite songs of all time! Her powerful voice shines through on this upbeat, sassy tune that will have you clapping your hands and tapping your feet. The bold instrumentation fits perfectly with the playful lyrics without drowning out Chalee's voice. Just another example of Chalee Tennison's awesome talent."
377197,2,Nice camera!,"This is my first digital camera, so I don't have a lot to compare it with, but so far I'm quite pleased.I did a lot of research. I was looking for a camera with a decent zoom lens, image stabilization, an optical viewfinder, and a 2.5 inch LCD; all for under $250. I think I got a very good camera for a very good price.My pictures have come out great. I'm a little slow in learning the fine points, but so far I've managed to take some decent pictures and do some very nice editing. I kind of wish I'd spent a little more for a stronger zoom, but I'm still pleased. I'd definitely recommend this camera."
377241,2,Works well with newer televisions.,"Bought two for two different tvs. It plugged into back of one no problem but the other required a 3.5mm female RCA to stereo adapter, which isn't included."
377264,2,Excellent and Powerful,A must read. It gets to the point on ones walk with the Lord. Also a reality check for the church and the indivdual. Very in depth.
377319,2,Better than I expected,This is one of the best book in the series; it's doesn't show look that way in the beginning but every chapter gets better and better.
377345,2,Social Studies Educators: You Need This Book!,"This most excellent collection of fifty-two key documents in U.S.History from 1785 to 1974 illuminates the themes of social and political interactions that have moved this country. The Civil Rights Mini Unit is especially powerful and includes student data retreival charts, timelines, discussion and debate questions as well as such items as the actual amendments, astonishing photographs of ""Separate But Equal"" schools, etc. The actual coded version of the Zimmerman Telegram is as fascinating as Truman's revisions on the memo to recognize Israel. Great teaching suggestions on analyzing Federalism and students will love Eisenhower's response to Elvis as a Roc'n Roll Hero. This is a winner for active learning."
377349,2,A very motivating workout . I love it,This is an excelent tape Stacey Millner-Collins does an excelent job of keeping you motivated. the Tape is over before you even realize it. It is very good for beginners or if you want to exercise a little lighter some days. To make it tougher just add weights.
377356,2,Simply Excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"The third outing of the Bay Area's own Braxton Brothers is eagerly anticipated and is quite simply an excellent set. The brothers don't necessarily cover any new ground here; quite frankly, they don't need to. Their exciting combination of contemporary jazz with top-notch R&B coloring had me sold by the ""Now And Forever"" outing a few years back. Most notably is a really nice ""Better Than Nothing"" with the incomporable Ledisi (another Bay Area artist who demands to be heard and whose second outing is just as eagerly anticipated!) So sit back, put it on and forget about it. There are positively no duds or fillers here and this is further evidence that The Braxton Brothers are not only a force to be reckoned with but are truly legitimate contemporary jazz artists whom we will enjoy for years to come."
377360,2,Very good read with alot of enlightenment.,Great! It was well worth the wait. A book that will be a value to my collection and will be read on numerous occasions.
377479,2,Satisfied So Far,"In the limited use to which I have put the shredder to date, it has worked fine, with no jamming."
377507,2,Collet works.,Pulls the bullet without leaving a mark. Very easy to use. The only problem I had was how long it took them to ship it.
377589,2,Easy to install,"Very simple to install. Nice looking, very bright. Not sure if I am more visible but I feel more visible."
377644,2,Awesome Service - Great Hat,"I recieved my Ventair hat five days sooner than the assumed date that I would receive it. It surprised the heck out of me, that's to be certain. This hat has been very sturdy. Just some tips for new wearers: always handwash the hat and leave it drying on top of a bowl or something so it keeps its shape."
377660,2,A valuable resource.........,"Dr. DeLisi's book consolidates a lot of meaningful information about schizophrenia in a user-friendly, readable way. It is an important guide for anyone who knows somebody with this devastating illness and is interested in learning more about it."
377685,2,Simple and usefull,"It does it's job, it holds a bottle. whether its a sports bottle, or a gatorade bottle. Your bike should have 2 screws already in the frame to attach this. you can't beat this for the price."
377693,2,The Simplest way to get friendly with SNMP,SNMP was something completely new for me and i was struggling to understand it reading various RFC's. Althoug they helped but it was not unless i started reading this book that SNMP seemed something really interesting to work with.Sincere thanks to Dr Feit.
377695,2,Seeing is believing!,"I've known Bill Hansen for months now, and everything Bill says in his book is absolutely true. He has rebuilt his life after being diagnosed with Parkinson's and his book is an inspiration to anyone stricken with a neurological disease. Anyone who has Parkinson's or knows someone who has Parkinson's, which is practically everyone, should read this book."
377710,2,One of the Best I Own,"This album, while it may be a bit of a downer, is amazing. The production level is superb. The album is cohesive, but varies enough to keep me interested. Gems include: Glass Parade, Jealousy, The Last One, All The Rage. If you like this guy, check outUntil Tomorrow Then- The Best of Ed Harcourt (2 CDs)."
377839,2,Great book to read!,"This was the first book written by Christopher Pike that I read, and after reading it I just bought one book after the other by the same author. I read this book before I read the first one, but I had no trouble following along at all. It does help a little to read the first book, so you know all the characters, but it isn't necessary. This was a great book. It's easy to follow, it has a great plot, and even when you know who the bad guy is, it doesn't take away from the story. Mr.Pike wrote this book with the same style he writes all his books, which makes it great. The only reason I didn't give it five stars was because sometimes it gets a little gross, but it doesn't go to far. I recommend it to anyone, whether you're a long-time fan of Mr.Pike, or you've just discovered this wonderful author."
377878,2,Solid Pen - Pleasure to Use,"I am researcher who punishes writing instruments in archives, at meetings, etc. I purchased a Retro51 rollerball at the 42nd st. NYPL during a research trip a year ago and have used it ever since. The other reviewer is right - no need to order custom refills when the Parker will do."
377896,2,A must see for real horror fans!,This is a must see for the serious horror fan. This is the way horror movies should be made. Excellent story and acting.
377908,2,Great Validation for Bereaved Teens,"Martha Bolton has reached into a very difficult subject--grief and loss. We all find loss difficult, but especially teens. As the president of an organization that deals specifically with adoption loss and grief, I am putting Martha's book on my list of recommendations.Martha provides a springboard for teens to read about others who have experienced similar losses and thus brings validation. And with validation comes healing. It is also a valuable tool for parents who are having difficulty getting their teens to talk about the loss and process it."
377978,2,"Good, solid charger- the price makes up for any deficiencies","I just got the battery, today and it gives me about 3 1/2 hours of battery life. I still need to charge it fully to see, but I'm so much happier not having to cart my charger around. Only downside like some people mentioned is the color is slightly off and it doesn't set so perfectly in the machine. However, my laptop is already pushing 5 years, so I feel it gives it character. Besides, 40 dollars vs. 125 at apple (also apple's reviews of this product weren't that great- at least not 125 great)- I don't really think there is any competition. Even if this only lasts a year, I'll still have saved money compared to buying an apple battery. Also, for anyone who complains about the color- it's on the bottom no one will see, and it looks pretty much the same."
378039,2,A Standout Golf Book!,"Paging through this book it doesn't take long to recognize that Golf Training is no ordinary golf book. Instead of the usual stroke savers and swing tips common to the mass of generic golf books out there, Golf Training digs deeper into the fundamentals of mental training, fitness training, developing a good swing, and the keys to effective practice. This latter subject of ""how to practice most effectively"" is powerful, practical, and backed by what seems to be sound sports science. The author has done her research, and it shows in this clear, authoritative text. Though written by an LPGA pro, I found Golf Training to be a standout book that should help any golfer--male, female, high/low handicap--to play better. This is a glossy book, with many great action and instructional photos that support the text. A classy book and a great read!"
378081,2,envelope pusher,"This book on XML is a refreshing break from usual books on the topic, like ""An XML Primer."" It illuminates the creative possibilities that XML is uniquely qualified to afford, and its main thrust is to show the many innovative possibilities of XML that allow the XML programmer to interface his design structure with other languages and utilities, like Java and Perl. Anyone venturing into the XML world should make this their second book purchase, right after the one that introduces him/her to the basics of XML. This envelope-pushing book will have you doing the same in the very near future."
378141,2,Environmentally In Tune......,"This is an outstanding reference source for those who are interested in purchasing &/or learning about environmental friendly procuts. This directory has been updated several times and provides the reader with an array of creative products which are earth friendly. Delia has excellent taste and this is a wonderful tool for people to acquaint themselves with earth-friendly products for homes, bodies and gardens."
378149,2,Excellent!,"This two DVD set is a real investment.You may only watch the educational DVD once, but the actual practice DVD you will probably use hundreds of times. That assumes you like yin yoga.I had not done any before buying this set. Since then, I have become a real devotee.In addition to this DVD, I use the Sarah Powers Yin Practice, I think its title is Insight Yoga, and Erin Flemming's CD.All are wonderful in their own ways.Paul's is a great place to start as he gives excellent instruction in the actual poses. He also shows people with different types of flexibility,and ways to adapt the practice to your own unique body. He offers a variety of yin practices as well as some very creative and fluid yang options.Sarah's has a Buddhist slant that appeals to me. She has two yin practices: one for the kidneys and one for the liver. She also includes hatha vinyasa, savasana, and meditation.Erin's is only a one hour practice, but it's very well rounded and a delight to do."
378155,2,Better Than Paper Plates,This is a great product for serving pizza. It is much more practical and prettier than paper plates. I recommend this for all pizza lovers. You get your money's worth.
378328,2,This book has helped me so much.,"Generally my strategy of looking at book reviews is to look at all the negative points first but I just cannot believe how helpful this book was to me and my family. I am a hardcore attachment parenter and found this to be a helpful, human look at discipline. Every person I know who has read this book was also deeply affected by it. For me it was right up there with the book by the same authors ""Siblings without rivarly""... and on top of that, it was such an easy book to read I felt like I was reading a novel. Parts of it made me cry and others made me laugh. And there were so many things I was able to use in my parenting right away. I noticed an immediate change in my parenting style and the kids were so much happier and more respectful!"
378343,2,Funny as expected,"I just knew this would be yet another funny movie with Jackie Chan, it was and I was not disappointed."
378378,2,... Most Meaningful Book ...,"Wisdom and greatness are in this book. Beauty, poetry and much language skill. It is action-filled, yes, but it also speaks to the inner voice."
378504,2,Gives me something to look forward to,This brief expose of how large numbers of species kick the bucket at the same time is genuinely uplifting after the 2008 and 2012 elections.
378524,2,Powerful adventure in the frozen wastes,"The DL series was a huge leap forward for TSR - these modules featured a new emphasis on drama and storytelling that made the gaming MUCH more fun and involved for the PCs and the DM. Of course, at heart, being TSR modules from the 80s, they're still dungeon crawls! In this chapter, the heroes must journey with the iceships to Icewall Castle, to recover the Dragon Orb from the evil white dragoness. For levels 6-9 (although I would say 8-9 unless you want a bunch of pointy-eared popsicles)."
378571,2,Excellent Resource for Wine and Beer Enthusiasts,"Whether you're a wine-maker or homebrewer, a connosieur of wines and/or beers, or simply someone who is fascinated with the history of colonial New England, this book is a useful addition to your library. Taking you step by step through the various types of fermented drink made by the settlers of the northeastern New World, it explains what the colonists drank, why they drank it, how they harvested the ingredients for their brews, and (for the do-it-yourselfers)a section on how to accurately reproduce modern equivalents. The book reopens doors to what may have become a fairly close-minded world of home-made fermented beverage, as well as providing wonderful historical information about how the agriculture of the area effected the style of living of the time."
378609,2,the best bdaman ever,samuri phoenix is one my best b daman yet he has good aim and speed he is fast good
378618,2,Underworld,I like this saga. It keeps one interested from the beginning to the end. I can't wait for the new one that is coming out.
378625,2,Sterling Silver Simulated Diamond CZ Filigree Cross Locket,I wear this all the time - love it. Great product for the money.
378658,2,great little pot,"I love this pot, and use it once or twice a day from making oatmeal, to boiling pasta, to making cheese sauces. I've never had a pot boil water so quickly. It cleans up so easily, even if I put in in the dishwasher. The only thing this pot didn't recover from was when my husband severely burnt popcorn in it. We had to order another one. Fortunately they had it on Amazon."
378734,2,Big surprize!,"I read the book before I bought the video, and as is usually the case, the movie did not quite reach the level of enjoyment as the book, but it was darn close. The cast was well picked, and did a great job. I thought there might have been a little too much preaching than was needed, but it was, after all, meant to be delivering a strong message. Good family video if you, the parent, have the time to explain what is going on to the younger viewers. Buy this video, and watch it often."
378739,2,a must HAVE,this is a MUST HAVE book .... great to refer to as you plow through Mongolian Travel and Adventure Books..... I'm thrilled to own it! Glad it was 'finally' published!
378748,2,"interesting, and well worth reading","Although lullaby is far from Palahniuk's best novel, it is a delightfully clever look at society from a character easy to relate to. It doesn't flow as well as Chuck's other novels, but is still full of twists, and the dark comedic element makes this book a fun read. I recomend this book to both new and old Palahniuk readers."
378760,2,Awesome,"What can I say? Who doesn't love One Piece? I was yearning for the next season & when I returned home from work, my DVD was waiting for me. Thanks guys!"
378762,2,Emphasizes the spiritual meaning of Bar and Bat Mitzvahs,"In the frenzy of preparing for the big day, it can be easy to lose the focus and meaning of a Bar or Bat Mitzvah. Many kids may wonder ""What is this really all about? Why am I doing this?"" This inspiring, clearly-written book urges kids to think about the deeper meaning of the ceremony and of being a Jew. The emphasis is on spirituality and being mindful of God's presence everyday. I especially liked the section with suggestions and resources for acts of tzedakah as well as little mitzvahs."
378838,2,Teaching Science to ALL students,"This is a superb book that opened my eyes to how to teach better. Very learner-centered, it nevertheless talks to the teacher-centered instructor, giving valuable tips on how to improve classroom presentations. The best tip is that the adjustments we make to assist non-native speakers of English in our science classrooms also help ALL students. Read it, heed it, if you are a college science teacher. Your students will thank you."
378904,2,I am addicted to this series,They are cute with the occassional insert of something adult. I just love the interactions between the humans and animals and the charactors that have been developed in this series. Keep on going Rita.
378978,2,Works great for me!,"Picked this up for something in my pickup and this works pretty good. There is very little if any mechanical noise from it and the transfer of sound is pretty decent. I've used it in my car (tapedeck/cd changer) and the sound isn't that bad. It's a little soft but works better than the FM transmitters I've been using before. Solid product, now to see how long it lasts. :)"
378983,2,Does what it's supposed to do,"This Tape adapter provides nearly perfect digital sound. Pretty much the same as an auxiliary cable... but without having to buy a new deck! Cheap and works just fine. Philips is a solid brand, I know I'll get much use out of this."
379049,2,Exceptionally Written Biography,"This is by far the best book I have read on Stonewall Jackson. I gained more insight into the character and the influences that shaped his personality and thought processes than any other work.I was especially pleased with the insight into his interactions with other up-and-coming military peers in the Mexican War and his personal development that occurred while in Mexico that shaped his future actions.Very good insight also into his faith in God, his personal development as a Christian, his personal actions to live a strong Christian life and his remarkable openness to teach others about his God...no matter what racial background...something I am proud to discover in a Confederate leader.Anyone contemplating a purchase...this is a lay-up decision. You will be very happy with this choice."
379051,2,Like so fabulous!!!!!!!$$$$$$,"This game rocks it has the my band THE BLACK EYED PEAS! And the songs some song are english at last!also some of the songs sang from the black eyed peas.you can be a homie or a celerlbrity and a rock n roll person or a P.I.M.P and also can pick the best outfits and pearing,tatoo.when first played it i was like wow !you should buy this game because it rocks!"
379114,2,Motivation!!!,"This book has been a wonderful motivator for me. I started my own walking program and am now walking about 4 miles a day thanks to Sansone's advice. It is great not only for exercise, but for that little bit of ""me"" time that we all need.Pick this one up today!"
379127,2,Great e-version of a classic,Good rendition of the classic book; nicely augmented with illustrations and additional historical material. Backstories are always nice to read. Well worth the price and the time to read.
379144,2,Excellant Ab Workouts,"This DVD has 8 short and effective ab routines with a nice variety of workouts. Some traditional and then additions like scissor kicks and other means to get all of your abs.I have definately noticed an improvement using this a few times a week, and they are easy to fit in. 6-8 minutes or so. Three easier routines which I started using and are good. Three more that are tougher then two other routines using weights and balls.Good DVD to throw into the exercise mix when you want something short that gets the job done."
379151,2,Uproarious evening away from tv,"I brought this game to the table one evening with reservation and began to play it. We did not follow the rules of the game to start, but separated into teams. One member of each team took turns asking the questions. All of these questions have answers that have you quantify, rather than know something, so you are guessing. This is what makes the game different than Trivial Pursuit and it is not only fun, but you learn lots of interesting facts about our world. It's a great icebreaker, and you do not have to be a trivia buff to play."
379192,2,Pick Me Up in the Morning,"Compared to his first album with 'doo uap', this album takes a completely different approach from its former Buddha Bar Hotel Costes style. To be honest, I am absolutely in love with this album, sadly, China Moses, although has talent, doesn't just quite cut it with jazzy house feel of the music, but overall...I tell you what..this is a feel good album through and through....definitely worth buying!"
379195,2,On my top 5 list of favorite movies,"This movie was just simply amazing. If you are the type of person who easily feels other people's pain then you may need an entire tissue box after the movie is over. I felt everything the movie wanted me to feel. Guilt, remorse, sadness, and even happiness. I don't understand why people would totally dislike the movie just because of a few factual mistakes. There are thousands maybe even millions of movies that don't get the facts %100 right. I hate when people look for the negative in things and then forget all about the positive. If this movie didn't move you to want to at least consider donating you have no heart..regardless if the facts weren't all right. I cry every single time I watch this movie. Will Smith is a wonderful actor and he deserved every award for this movie. My copy of the movie got scratched so I immediately went on to Amazon to search for a new copy."
379199,2,A movie for human beings,"Anyone who calls this movie simple or boring or not about love, has no heart or soul, and has no clue about love. Unless you anesthetized with only the capability of enjoying mindless violence on screen, you will be moved to tears. This movie contains just about everything that a human can experience and it is beautifully and sensitively acted and directed. I suppose that it takes a European director to be able to portray the depth, complexity and simplicity of the range of human emotions. I admire Will Smith for his bravery and honesty in his choices of projects. I was actually an extra in one of his films, and grateful to have been this close to someone so talented and generous. I love this film and will watch it over and over (even if it still makes me cry). I don't want to mention any detail of the movie because I loved being captivated and surprised the first time I watched it. The extras on the DVD are great and I recommend watching all of them."
379207,2,mirror glass,"I had no problem finding the product online and placing the order.Got it fast, read how to install. it was easy."
379258,2,InuYasha,"To lean draw InuYasha, Kagome, Kikyo, Shippo, Sango, Naraku, Sesshomaru, Miroku, Koga, Myoga, Kaede, and Kagura.Is so cool."
379287,2,Love the wall mounted hair dryer!!,I LOVE it. Be sure to have someone hold the dryer mount on the wall so you can hold it and use it as if drying your hair to make sure it is in the proper place and you will never look at drying your hair in the same way! I plan on buying another one for our RV. The holder/mount lets the dryer snap into place securely enough to drive done the bumpy roads!
379339,2,Good fun in a small package.,"This little laser is good fun for home use, the kids will love it. Lots of designs to create yourself or just turn it on automatic put on some music and enjoy.."
379387,2,Good Stuff,I highly recommend this product. Brings back some good memories and is still fun to listen to. Edition contains a good mix of well-known and lesser well-known tracks. Good music to share with a loved one. Don't forget your lighters!
379421,2,Great for bonding with your partner and your belly!,"Although the size of this book is small, the joy we got out of reading it to my belly was not! It states right in the title that this book is meant, ""... to be read in utero"" and that's exactly what we did every night. My husband and I would read to my belly every night before going to bed. After about a week, the baby would respond, by moving, every time we read it. We would take turns reading it so that our son could hear both of our voices. I never read it to my son after he was born because we have the original book, but Dr. Suess books are some of his favorites to this day (and he's 18 months old now).I am purchasing it this time for my best friend, who is expecting her first child. My husband and I are now expecting our second son and we plan to start reading it to him every night as soon as he can ""hear."" I would recommend this book for exactly what it states itself to be: ""A book to be read in utero."""
379428,2,Great Fun!,"Look, I don't care what all these ""whovians"" (?) say; this old Brit S-F chestnut is priceless fun. From the opening scene-- where the good doctor is seen gasping over a DAN DARE comic-- this movie will hook any fan of Sci-fi goofiness. The story is actually pretty good-- in a cliffhanger serial sort of way-- it just requires a sense of humor. Peter Cushing? Well... how MANY good things can I say?Recommended!"
379462,2,Excellent,Very good story and documentation of the origins of Chein ware from China. The author spend many years there researching the origins of this pottery and the special glazing that was used to make these fine pieces of pottery. Great story and also excellent for research study.
379513,2,Crocs are great,I love Crocs.They are tops and everyone in the family wears them.Best thing since apple pie.I will wear them always.
379530,2,"awesome game, needs some work","this is and awesome game. it would be five stars except for one thing: if you get good at it it gets boring. now i know this sounds general, but it's true. one way it's true is the fact that you only have so much space because you're on an island. because you only have so much room, you can only build so many objects. take feeders, for instance. you can only build eight feeders in your park. you also have a limited amount of species of animals you can create. in addition to that, you also have very little buildings you can build.now that i've gotten past all the bad stuff, we can get to whats good about this game. the grafics are awesome, the idea of dinosaurs is cool, making money is generaly pretty easy,and you have mini games you can play.i say this is a game worth buying. my suggestion to get past all the bad stuff is to not get stuck on one game. start lots of new games so when you're board with one game you can switch to another."
379540,2,Convenient and compact,"Rollers heat up nicely, although the color dot which indicates readiness never changes color. The unit heats up more quickly than the instructions state.The rollers are a bit smaller than I would like but they do a good job of curling hair quickly and the curl holds well."
379572,2,Hard find but amazing product!,"I'm a African-American woman who loves this product though its probably not intended for me. After I wash and condition my chemical free hair with Pantene women of color hair products, I follow up with ISO Bouncy creme and it makes my hair look really good! I get compliments all the time for how it defines my otherwise naturally kinky hair giving me beautiful curls. And I don't have to put any harsh chemicals in my hair or go to a salon to achieve this style!"
379674,2,Excellent Introduction to the study of Dinosaurs,"This book is a basic introduction to the study of dinosaurs. It briefly covers the history of paleontology in general and of dinosaur paleontology specifically. The reader will learn what makes a dinosaur a dinosaur, and why other reptiles aren't. It covers the major divisions of dinosaurs with brief descriptions of all of the large subgroups. If you're looking for a book that will get you beyond general audience level without requiring years of other studies to understand, this will be a good choice."
379696,2,Makes Tummy Time longer,"My 4 month old son is still not the biggest fan of tummy time, but this does seem to keep him there longer. I haven't had any problems with it leaking, and I like the frogs that stand up, it gives him a reason to lift up his head and look at them."
379702,2,the best of softy Voulzy,I really enjoyed and still enjoy this double cd. Having this compilation playing in the car this is the kind of music that relaxes you and that brings back memories from the 80'S. Thanks to the great talent of this artist!Pity that the song 'I want you' jumps when playing but I guess this is to remind you that perfect happiness is impossible to achieve!
379724,2,Ain't That A Shame,"The only reason I'm not giving this 5 stars is because the picture is only so-so, otherwise I would have given it 5. As much as I value other peoples review on other music videos, sometimes as we know, it's not quite like what you would expect. But being very fussy about the sound like I am, regardless of the rest, if it's not done right, nothing else matters. This DVD sounds good. The band plays very good on this video and if your wondering if it's worth owning, being a fan of Cheap Trick, O-Hell-Yes. There are many songs on this DVD and the music sounds like the original songs from way back. Tell me, if I'm wrong, but, if not for a better picture, it's totally a 5 star DVD. I'm sure you will agree if you're a fan of Cheap Trick, so sit back and enjoy."
379805,2,Very good product,"This tool does a terrific job in removing the thick undercoat on my Lab/Beagle mix. It also removed tiny particles of dirt, too, and my dog looked cleaner as well as having a nice smooth coat. The reason I gave this four instead of five stars is because I inadvertently got this tool without the automatic fur release button. It's a bit awkward pulling the fur off the tool into the trash. Be careful when you order that you choose the one with the release button. Nice product!"
379814,2,A GREAT IDEA,This works great!!! Just as described!! You would not believe how much hair it removes! It is really worth buying!! I bought the large and also used it on our cat. Our dog is medium (a corgi) but the large was the right size.
379861,2,"Awesome Tool! Two Dogs and 4 Cats LOVE it, as do I.","Wow, we chose the border collie shepherd mix as the first guinea pig. Not only did she enjoy it while we were combing her with it (once she smelled it good) but she also felt quite frisky afterwards! Followed by a long peaceful nap. One cat likes it, the other three love it. I would buy another one and I would certainly buy from Entirely Pets Amazon store again! Great transaction and prompt processing."
379885,2,Pleasantly Surprised!,"I am not a great fan of Alanis Morissette, but I have to say that I was most impressed with her version of ""King Of Pain"" on her MTV Unplugged CD! I heard the song blasting from my daughter's room and was immediately drawn to it. ""King of Pain"", originally done by Sting has always been one of my all time favorite songs, as he is one of my all time favorite artists. Not everyone has the vocal ability to perform the song so well, but Alanis has certainly accomplished it. I find myself listening to it over and over again. Job well done!"
379922,2,great little pump,This little pump transfers a huge amount of water providing the head isn't too great. It's so good I bought a second one!!!
379961,2,Mariah always delivers a good album!,"""Rainbow"" is a nice blend of R&B and Pop music. It is still indifferent to Carey's previous albums, but still offers a bit of change this time around. ""Rainbow"" boasts the #1 hit ""Heartbreaker"" and the hip/hop style remix feat. Missy and Da Brat. Other R&B style tracks are ""X-Girlfriend"", produced/written by the writing duo Shek'speare and Kandi who brought the hits ""No Scrubs"" and ""Bills, Bills, Bills"" and ""Crybaby"" which features rapper Snoop Dogg. The album is still filled with ballads such as the sultry ""Can't Take That Away (Mariah's Theme)"" and ""Thank God I Found You"" w/ boyband 98 Degrees and R&B singer Joe, written/produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis who is best known for their work with Janet Jackson. Mariah's fans will not be disappointed with this album, so if you are one of them then I suggest you add this to your collection today."
379962,2,blissful buy,her voice is stunning in bliss! she also sounds really good in can't take that away! way to go mariah!
379968,2,I didn't quite know what to expect,"when I bought this album a few years ago. After all, I was always fond of Mariah's early work (""Emotions"", ""Hero"" and ""Fantasy"") and with the drastic change that followed in 1997 with ""Butterfly"", her music kind of got lost between all the tabloid dramas (Tommy Motolla, Derek Jeter and all those changes in her music and image), although she still got lot's of radio play (""Honey"" was a mega hit @ my radio station, and so was ""My All""). However, when ""Heartbreaker"" flew up the charts, I started taking notice again (of her music, that is) and bought ""Rainbow"" the day it came out. It's been in my CD player ever since. Granted, there are 1 or 2 fillers but that's about it. Mariah's voice sounds spectacular as ever, even if she occasionally uses that whispery voice so many people have come to hate by now. Overall, a great album for every music lover."
379974,2,one of the best cds you'll ever own!,"If you loved ""Butterfly"" then you'll definately love""Rainbow"".Maraih Carey's soft sounds will make her fans scream for more.Everyone should own this cd, or atleast have the single of ""Heartbreaker""."
380001,2,Sequel to Mrs Mike,"I was born in Calgary,Alberta, Canada where the original book ""Mrs Mike"" basically started. I would recommend reading this book first in order to understand ""The Search for Joyful"". Mrs Mike is my altimate altime favorite book and this was a pleasent surprise as I didnt even know they had printed another book. Enjoy both books."
380031,2,We love Paprika's Lullabye,"My 3 1/2 year old son adores this CD. We listen to it in the car almost daily, and now at night, he has begun to request that I sing him ""Paprika's Lullabye."" Since I have heard it so many times, I am happy to oblige. It's a sweet lullabye full of delicious images for little ones, even including a moment worthy of Edith Piaf in there!"
380065,2,Great workout,"I didnt expect much from this dvd, but I was delighted I made the purchase, from the warm up work out I was sweating, then I did the basic and for 20 mins i was dripping with sweat, I must say I love it, once I am sweating I know it is working, also my thighs were burning so yay, once it burning they say its working, so I am very glad I added this to my collection"
380113,2,Good stuff.,"Probably my favorite Download release. Highlights some of the weirder, noisier techno elements of The Eyes of Stanley Pain, but with less detractions (vocals.) A generous EP, it's also a good place to start if you're unfamiliar with the project."
380116,2,A Voice to Bring Peace to the World,"As a parent of a new baby and a classical music afficionado, I was delighted to find When Night Falls; it is now a favorite of my daughter and myself. Kirschlager's phrasing is nothing short of phenomenal, making even the simple Brahm's lullaby (#3 on the CD) more compelling and emotional. Her warm tones are especially complimented where the viola and cello are present (try #s 4 and 5). Can German lyrics be light and lilting? Yes, when Kirchschlager sings them. This CD is a great way to expose your baby to classical music, AND get him/her off to dreamland."
380146,2,Best Comedian I have ever seen!!!!,"His down home humor brings back memories of when I was a little girl and anyone raised in a Baptist Church can definitely relate to him. He makes us laugh without the use of those ""four-letter"" words that comedians feel they have to use to be funny."
380218,2,Interesting and unusual,"An uncommon look at history from a creator of history. Mr. Van der Post's illuminating mystical humnanistic work describes his position at the vanguard of British efforts to keep the lid on the island of Java while transitioning from the Japanese occupation to a new political system. It is also an intensely personal exploration of the author's feelings and realizations after his 3 1/2 years of cruel confinement in a Japanese prison camp, after which he was asked to monitor the Japanese till the takeover of Allied forces was complete. Add to the mix a highly charged nationalism appearing unexpectedly in the Indonesian population aimed primarily at their former overlords the Dutch, and there is plenty to follow in this very dense read. I highly recommend it."
380289,2,FALL IN LOVE,This story about a young girl and her name is Alice. She is high school students and she is fall in love with Randy and his is student of same school that Alice was studing. Randy always write to alice a letter and she doesnt know about read and write.Alice and Randy got fall in love with each other and they try to live a happy life..........
380299,2,Very detailed.,"The book really gets into the nuts and bolts of the empires, showing you how ideas could give birth to and help expand the two cultures. But it also shows how the same ideas could hinder and even start to destroy the empires later in their existance. Yet it is not hard to read and even delightful at some points. They answer alot of questions I had about the Aztec and Inca, making sure to support everything they say with lots of details. A must of any history library."

380347,2,review for Introducing Econometrics by W. S. Brown,I adop this text in my master course I find it higly comprehensive and fundamental. Still I wonder why it hasen't sold many copies and did not reprinted.May I ask if there is a full solution mannual to the text. If so I would like to obtain a copy of it.With best regardsProf. Dr. Gazi Ozhan
380368,2,Kengington Mac Keyboard- Recommended,"This Keyboard is a replacement of the same model for my older iMac. Since I liked the old keyboard, which finally wore out, I bought this one, which has been discontinued by the manufacturer. I never used all of the functions that it has, so I can't speak to those, but it is a workhorse in terms of a LOT of Word Processing, E-Mailing,and Web commentaries. It was delivered promptly in great condition as promised, and the price was right. I recommend the seller."
380428,2,Pleased,I received this product on time but not sure if it is tanning me or not.........Maybe after I take the whole bottle maybe I will be tanner.....
380477,2,thought provoking,"For those who dont accept the standard view on this subject, who know somehow something is missing and want a answer will enjoy this video. There is so much that is kept secret in the name of Evilotion. We need more brave souls to dare to tell the truth."
380488,2,salty frogs,These two little dudes really frog up the dining room table. The quality is good--they are glazed inside and out. They are each a little smaller than a tennis ball.
380547,2,The newlyweds loved this gift,what a unique wedding gift accompaniment! I like to add a little something extra with the card and check when I go to a wedding :)
380568,2,Good so far,"I haven't had a chance to use very much, but so far I LOVE IT!! Will be grinding grains soon and can't wait to see how it works. So far I have done blueberries and strawberries to mix in my son's yogurt. It purees them in what seems like a millisecond!"
380576,2,Another great work from Francine Rivers,"It had been quite some time since I have read a Francine Rivers book. Now, I remember why I liked her writing--they are great reads! Scarlet Thread weaves two stories together--one present day and one from our American heritage take is a great message. Hard to put down once you get into it!"
380577,2,She keeps me coming back,"This is my fourth book by Francine Rivers and as usual, it was not what I expected. I really enjoyed this story, though I thought that the journal entries would be more intertwined with the action in the present, I really enjoyed them. I did feel that the husband got off a little easy and perhaps didn't grow as much as he could have, but it was true to his personality. For him, he'd gone a long way. I would have liked to know more about some of the ladies and the club and what happened to them and if they were impacted by the main character's growing faith. All in all, it was an engaging read and kept me thinking long afterwards. That is what I love about Mrs. Rivers' books--that they draw me to pray and think."
380580,2,Good book,"I would recommend this book to anyone. It was a little drawn out in parts, but overall it was well written and a good, encouraging read."
380669,2,Berlitz Rush Hour Spanish,"Sure, the jingles are a little corny, but the repitition and presentation make it very easy to learn the basic words and phrases to get started with Spanish. I'd highly recommend it for any commuter wanting something more than to just pass the time."
380682,2,More ideas,"Wong and Wong is a great resource for all teachers, but it is true that it is intended more for the elementary classroom. If you are looking for a practical guide, especially for new teachers, read A Lesson Plan for Teachers, New and Old. It is a more practical approach to the real incidents and experiences faced by seconday level teachers."
380693,2,"Disneyland Secrets, stories and Magic","This movie is great for any Disneyland Addict. Full of interesting facts about Disneyland through the years, rides that where to complicated to maintain and rides that have been retired, but they continue to think about bringing back. Also, includes a fun Disney trivia game to play and test your Disneyland Knowledge."
380697,2,Fun Forties Listening!,"For anyone who loves the big band sounds of the 1940's, Swingtime Canteen is a great listen. A collection of music featured in the stage production, many well known favorites as well as some lesser known songs are included in this soundtrack. The music is uplifting and fun."
380701,2,"Amazing DVD, a feast for the senses",This concert DVD is an absolutely masterpiece. A total must buy. Kamelot is maybe the best metal band out there at the moment. They deserve all the success. Buy this inmediately and you will understand why.
380707,2,Great Fun!,"I started playing DDR last summer. I started off having difficulty playing beginner songs, and now I have difficulty with the expert&challenge level songs. I've improved slowly, and at the same time seen the game improve slowly as well.The PS2 versions of DDR have added music video backgrounds, freeze arrows, and other nice touches to the game, though nothing has fundamentally changed since the game's inception. The latest versions, however, have many more songs available to choose from. The songs vary in genre, but generally focus on fast moving dance music.DDR Max 2 receives only 4 stars from me, however. I am very disappointed that we have still not seen butterfly, captain jack, or dam dariram. These three are my favorite songs in the arcade, and it seems konami is holding out on us.As a footnote, do not consider buying this game without buying a dance pad as well. Playing with your feet and playing with your fingers on a controller come nowhere close to each other."
380820,2,The only WW II Tank Sim Worth Owning,"First off. This is a Simulation, not an Arcade Shoot-em-up. If you just jump into this game and expect to survive, forget it. The AI is pretty tough and keeping your platoon alive is something you're going to have to work hard at. If you want to feel what it was like to be a Tanker during World War II, then this is the game for you. Wing Simulations, the publisher, has a customer service website that is unsurpassed by any company marketing games today. The game has 80 missions (40 per side) and can be played as single scenarios or as linked campaigns. A really engrossing game."
380927,2,Great nutrition bar for low-carb dieters...pricey though,"The Atkin's Chocolate Peanut Butter bar is my favorite low-carb snack. It is big, sweet, goes great with coffee (decaf for you purists out there), and carries the typical nutritional advantages of a meal replacement bar.Unlike many other low-carb bars, this one is moist, though not gewy, sweet (but not sickly so, like so many low-fat high sugar bars), and filling.The one factor that brings this bar down is price. I can almost never find it at Walmart or Sam's Club in the economy-size boxes. Instead they are individually wrapped at about $2 each. In light of this, Amazon's deal is pretty good!Bottom-line: This is the ideal low-carb snack/meal replacement bar. However, when you see it sold in 15-count or 5-count boxes, by as many as you can!"
380945,2,"Great set, if you don't own them already","For all the flaws that the Prequels may have, they're still highly enjoyable films, with just as many memorable scenes and quotes as the Original Trilogy. I think it's great that they're keeping the movies out there for any new generation to purchase (not that DVDs are that hard to come by of course), and really it's nice to have a convenient box set. So it's a good deal, if, you don't have the movies already. Otherwise, it's just another stepping stone in the journey towards the much wanted ""Ultimate"" box set with all six films. We can only hope!"
380949,2,STAR WARS,This set is great and goes along well with the set that includes the last 3 movies. Fast shipping too!!
380992,2,Great CD,This is a great CD for people who like wrestling and music. Stone Cold is awesome. So is Lilian Garcia. She is the best singer on the CD.
381006,2,Good assortment of movies,I purchased this as a gift because my brother was seeking one of these movies which is now out of print. But as a group this is a great deal especially for the price. You can't go wrong on this one.
381028,2,"If you can only buy one ska CD today,this oughtta be it!","If you can only buy one ska cd today, this oughtta be it! This definitive CD sampler from Orange County's Ska Parade radio show is dy-no-mite! I'm buying another copy of it, because it was so cool, someone stole my copy when I left it at work. This packed CD features Sublime when they were still a ska band as well as hilarious promos featuring (no kidding) The Jerky Boys, Mr. T. And Mindy's Dad from the lovably wack t.v. show Mork & Mindy.This is one of the most versatile CD's I have owned- even people who don't know much about ska love the catchy riffs and infectious grooves."
381077,2,Great knife,"I loved this knife from the moment I saw it. Holds an edge fairly well, and picks it up again easily with a steel. My only complaint with this knife is that although that hole in one side is meant to look cool and allow you to see the torsion bar, it also allows debris inside which can jam the knife. In this case, just be prepared to take it apart and clean it out. Really is a nice looking and sized knife."

381091,2,Well worth the hunt,"Back in 92, Hot Blood got a minor airplay in Northern California. The song stuck in my head for seven years before buying the CD. Obviously, the disk is much more thoughtful than one woman's obsession. It will be a long term keeper in my CD collection!"
381122,2,Turn your TV into a salt water aqaurium,"This is high quality and looks just like a salt water aquarium withoutall the expense & maintenance. We put it on during dinner parties, after work to relax us and sometimes when we are away to keep our cats entertained."
381130,2,Expecta will make you live longer,This is the best algae source of the antioxidant omega 3 DHA on the market.
381164,2,The Best Drama on TV,"I am hard to please when it comes to a TV series, but I have a psych degree, so thought this show sounded somewhat interesting. I had never heard of the show but ordered the first episode on Netflix. I started watching with some skepticism, and thought, oh well, I gave it a try; I will send it back. However, in the time it took to prepare to eject the DVD, I was hooked beyond my expectations. The acting is superb, the subject matter is relevant, the way the entire show is constructed, with heartfelt issues and realism, interesting characters and suspenseful events, this show is a winner. I love it. I ordered the first season - love it -- and plan to get the 2nd season. The only thing I am concerned with is saying goodbye to the original patients. I will miss the patients from Season 1. I hope there is a revival of some kind with Paul and Laura's relationship. I highly recommend this series for any intellectual person."
381174,2,Compact,The Charger that come with FZ35 is ok but this one have a car converter for a trip is perfect
381178,2,I WISH I COULD BUY A COPY,"The only thing I can say badly about this book is that I can't find a copy to buy. I have to continue asking for it from my local library through InterLibrary Loan. If you know of a way that I could get a copy of this book, please email me and let me know....ADDITION: I did eventually find a copy for only [price]. It took 3 months of searching out of print book sellers but a very nice man in Canada was willing to let go of his copy. If he reads this, THANK YOU!"
381323,2,Being idle takes practice!,"This book outlines the pleasures of simply ""living!"" There are chapters on sleeping in, taking long lunches, walking for pleasure, taking a day off now and then, napping, etc. The author is serious, yet humorous about the need for making the pleasures of life paramount! I really enjoyed this book!"
381337,2,3 thumbs up,"Airmania is not only a must see for Michael Jordan fans. It's a superb insight into the ""culture of celebrity"" that exists in our society. Funny, poignant, and in it's own way, uplifting to see these ""superfans"" finding faith in a higher being, Michael Jordan."
381342,2,Packed with valuable information,"""Packed with valuable information from e-cover to e-cover,... Karen Wiesner will kick start your e-publishing efforts if you're a beginner, or throw them into high gear if you're a pro. A complete, concise, readable guide by one of the most knowledgeable experts in the electronic publishing world today.""--Xina Marie Uhl, Publisher, XC Publishing"
381450,2,"Bio Tech D 3 50,000 units","It is much easier to take 1 tablet a week than try to remember to take 2 a day of 2,000 /ea. and still not get as much as I need.it I FEEL it helps me sleep better and fight off colds and sinus infections."
381468,2,Does just what it is supposed to.,"Lightweight, easy installation. The only challenge is that the stencil for mounting the drawer is so large it doesn't attach easily under a desk, and has to be modified."
381514,2,Tough to beat at this pricepoint,"This is the best every day carry knife I have ever owned. The blade is razor sharp, it opens lightning fast, and it's the most comfortable knife I've ever owned. When clipped into the small inner pocket of my jeans I can barely tell that it's there. I've spent alot of money on knives over the years and this is hands down the best money I've ever spent on one. For those who want to carry a comfortable, sharp knife for occasional use that is legal to carry in most places this is the way to go.The only downsides are that the steel isn't as high end as some people would like and that after a year of abuse the plastic part of the lock mechanism, to prevent accidental opening broke off. This is the knife for you unless you need stronger steel and a thicker blade for tough cutting jobs."
381647,2,Great Introduction to My Daughters Adoption Story,"I'm single and my parent's bought me this book the day after I told them I was going to adopt a child from China. My daughter has been with me for nearly 2 years now and I still can't read it without tearing up. My daughter2 1/2 loves this book. She picks it up and says, ""You and me!"" I have always read it to her by changing the story to reflect ours better. Rather than playing in the hotel room, I always talk about going swimming and shopping. And in speaking about our arrival home I mention the names of the family members waiting for us. She was so interested in this book that last week I got out her photo album and talked her through her own adoption story showing her pictures of the ""big room"" she lived in. She loved it. This book has given me the chance to talk about adoption easily with my daugter at a very young age. And SHE LOVES the photos!"
381687,2,Poképhat,"This isn't really about Pokémon, but it is much, much cooler! I just heard about a game called Tales of Sphyros by a company called Phat-Head Entertainment, and I was completely shocked at how great it was! My Game Boy broke, so I had no choice, but now I am thinking about Phat-Head games in all of my free time (and during study hall). I hear that they are working on three new games; two RPG's (and I love 'em), and a police racing action game. They sound great, and I cannot wait until they come out!"
381701,2,Excellent for anyone with orthodontic equipment,"The good: it's extremely easy to use even if you have a permanent retainer or braces installed, has an impressive battery life, and is far faster than flossing. At under $10 for 30 disposable tips, the tips may seem expensive at first. But it's far cheaper than going to a dentist or orthodontist later when you're having problems because you were too lazy to use regular floss.The bad: the size & angle of the device may make it difficult or impossible for you to reach the rear teeth. Depending on whether you've had your wisdom teeth removed or not, expect for 1 or 2 teeth to be unreachable & require regular floss."
381772,2,Are you looking for meaningful music?,I knew before I read the book that U2's music finds inspiration from the spiritual. I didn't realize how much they borrow from Biblical scripture and many other facets of the Christian walk. 'Walk on' and many other songs that you have heard will have new meaning once you read this book about U2.
381851,2,The House of Dies Drear,"I loved The House of Dies Drear book.I read this year in reading. Thomas, Mac, Pesty, Billy, and Buster are the kids in this story. In the book Pesty is my favorite charater."
381929,2,"Great functions, good value, lighter than it looks.",This watch stands out in price/performance terms in this category. I replaced a 5-year old similar Casio model that was all plastic and required a battery. (When you are deep in the mountains batteries are a nuisance.)With solar power the watch is always ready for action. It even conserves power when it sits overnight by turning off the display. All the functions work as documented.One minor feature that is surprisingly useful to me is the time zone change function based on city location. It's much faster and easier to switch as you move around the world.With a titanium band I expect this one to last at least 5 years. Although the watch is large and noticeable it is very lightweight.Expect to get labeled as a bit of a geek if you wear this watch as a day to day timepiece. It's information over style although the looks work for me.
381934,2,Kind of cool,"I saw the Tantive IV/ Mustafar playset first here , and really liked it. I decided to buy it instead in a store. My first impression, therefore, was kind of negative, as I expected it to be bigger. But when I actually opened it, I found that it was a pretty cool playset. I think that, compared to the Invisible Hand, it's a liitle small, but otherwise it has a lot of features. The lava seems to be a neat idea, and I like the inclusion of Palpatine's shuttle. On the other hand, it's kind of flimsy, as it has to stand up, and many of the peices fit akwardly. I don't really understand the tilt of the platform, and the skiffs seem kind of useless. But despite, I think this was well worth it, and would think it was money well spent: it was far too expensive!"
381973,2,A great book,"In this book Cordy, a unique half chinese, half caucasian, albino girl falls in love with Squirl a mischevios seventeen year old who is working as a logger at her father's mill. When Squirl gets fired, Cordy is determined to follow him, so she runs away to Seattle to live with Squirl and his wealthy sister at Luna park. It is a moving story, that ends in tragedy, but is overall a very good book."
381989,2,We love Tim Allen - this includes an interview...,"I had never heard of Tim Allen until I saw the reruns of ""Home Improvement"". My husband and I ordered this DVD to see him in stand up comedy and were pleased that it included an interview where he shares his beginning in comedy. Since then we have read ""Never Stand Next to a Naked Man"" (hiliarious) and have learned even more about his personal life starting life with the last name of ""Dick"" and how his name was shortened to the Tim Allen we know. Everything Tim Allen does is good for those healthy belly laughs we all need. We own every one of his DVD's and love seeing them again and again when we need a laugh. This video is worth seeing at least once."
382038,2,Life Application Study Bible,"I love this bible, and so happy that I now have it in my KINDLE, I can carry it every where I go in my purse. This is the best study bible on the market. Thanks amazon!!"
382039,2,A Holy Bible,AWESOME study bible!!! You want to learn the word this is the bible to get. I hope that this bible blesses you as much as it has me.
382045,2,Life Application Study Bible NIV,"Large print is very helpful, and so are the footnotes. Some footnotes contain 'preachy' sentences, drawing for us the lesson to be learned. I wonder if that's necessary."
382092,2,Like your grandma sitting on the backporch talks,"I went to an all-Texas MeetUp in Austin last weekend. Texas BookCrossers came from all parts to eat lunch together and swap book stories. ""What's your all-time must-read-before-you-die book?"" I asked. Two different BookCrossers named books by T.R. Pearson. Each was amazed to find there was another Pearson fan in the immediate vicinity. So, well, mercy, I had to read Polar, a book that's been languishing in my TBR for months.JennyO described this book perfectly at the MeetUp. ""It's the kind of book where the author rambles around for forty pages and has actually written two pages of plot."" Moreover, JennyO went on, ""T.R. Pearson writes like your grandma sitting on the backporch in the summertime talks."" Recommended."
382099,2,Good Product,Bought it for my Dad. He loves it. Easy to read. It is pretty bright in a red LED way so not good for bedroom however makes a decent night light for navigating a room in the dark. Easy to read from far distances day or night from all angles.
382105,2,PERFECT!,"What a great CD! Completely takes the work out of putting together your own ceremony CD. We aren't having live musicians play so this suits our needs perfectly! The CD booklet tells you when each song would be appropriate (precessional, recessional, interludes, etc.)and everything! The music is your classic wedding music, nothing funky. I believe ALL the songs are instrumentals."
382124,2,YELLFIRE! by Miachael Franti,"This is a very intelligent and needed album of moving songs. The US would do well to elect someone with the understanding and vision of this prophet to a leadership position. Michael Franti has groomed a very tight group to support his music. You will dance and cry, in turns. Thought provoking."
382167,2,Fantasy Reading,"I highly recommend this new novel by Charles Hamblen to anyone who enjoys adventure fantasies that are nevertheless grounded in reality. The story concerns a beautiful modern day singing star who is actually the reincarnation of one of the Sirens from Greek mythology. She forms a group of other famous woman from the Dawn Time, as it's called, to try to save the modern world from the recklessness of male leaders that could lead to nuclear destruction. In doing so, she tangles with some vicious politicians, including her ancient enemy Odysseus. Most interestingly, she manages to join forces with her original self from the Dawn Time to help her defeat her foes.Fantasy readers should get a real kick out of the Dawn Timers."
382169,2,Evidence of Harm,"Excellent book that informs the general public about the dangers of mercury in the enviroment, our teeth(silver fillings) and in vaccines. Very important read for all who are concerned about the health of all children and adults as well."
382201,2,Details on the 4 Books,1. THE WORLD OF HOUSE PLANTS by Elvin McDonald2. GARDENING UNDER LIGHTS by Elvin McDonald3. INTRODUCTION TO TERRARIUMS by Barbara Joan Grubman4. THE INDOOR WATER GARDENER'S HOW-TO HANDBOOK by Peter Loewer
382209,2,A quick read,It only took me a couple of hours to read and that was what I was looking for. It kept me interested and there was just enough mystery that you can't figure it out to early although when I finished I realized where the foreshadowing was. It was very good.
382262,2,Snow shovel,I wonder how I lived so long without it! I'm able to clear my driveway in half the time. On heavy snow I still use my snow blower but the shovel is a lot quicker most days. I like the metal blade - it scrapes right down to the driveway.
382274,2,Wonderful Game!,"This game is very good and lots of work was put into it. It even has its own engine (Max-FX) and the visuals are stunning. For younger players, there is a parental lock that removes adult scenes like Satanic icons. However, this game falls short of my expectations as it is quite short. After you complete a game, you will not want to play it again for a long time.Some parts are quite scary, like the Prologues of the 2nd and 3rd parts of the game which involves Max walking on blood trails in a black environment, coupled with stereo sound effects of the sobbing of Max's wife and the cries of his dead baby.If you are looking for a ""one-off"" game which you play once, this is definitely your choice."
382281,2,Great CD,After seeing the movie I was exited to by the soundtrack. But I was worried because on most soundtracks for movies there's a lot of added tracks that really aren't in the movie. But that didn't happen in this CD all of the songs are from the movie. Even The fairy godmother's song is on the CD.
382343,2,One of my most FAVORITE cds!,This CD is wonderful! For those of you who like bluegrass but not the old fashioned sound of it then this is for you. The Rubber Band wonderfully plays and picks traditional bluegrass instruments but sings modern sounding almost pop like songs. If I Were A Bird and I Will Love You Forever are my most favorite songs on the CD. I love the whimsical quality of there songs. The band almost reminds me of Barenaked Ladies in how the sing songs about the craziest things which I love!
382354,2,simply put steel prophets best,"I have all of steel prophets cds,and this is different compared to the rest, its still heavy, but with a more melodic sound,and i LOVE IT! Love the change ups from melodic to heavy and they do it tastefully.Dont get me wrong all of Steel Prophets cds are good,but this one is great.A must for all metal fans of helloween,gamma ray,angel dust,freedom call."
382492,2,Akita Inu Owner,"This stuff is not meant for every dog - althought it does work - the smell is ok - but if you have a dog that is skin sensative to products or is flaking, itching this is the product for your dog! I have an Akita and their skins flake and itch very easy to most products. The Miracle Coat Shampoo is GREAT! My God he had a bad case of flaking and itching - and this really works!Miracle Coat Shampoo Concentrate - Gallon"
382532,2,This book is a hoot!,"I love this book, and I'm getting a bunch to give out as Christmas and birthday presents. Highly recommended."
382575,2,Zoo Vet rocks,"It is a great game. The keepers alert you when the animals are behaving strangely. You have different tools( thermometer, urine test , oral medication. When you succesfully complete each case, you will have a trophy. Thre are many cases( reindeer's annual exam, flamingo limping and a giraffee with loose stool. I learned a lot from this game. Perfect game for Vet Becomers."
382647,2,awesome!,This ipod is awesome! it hold 240 songs(more songs then i will need)It is sleek and small and it looks great! you should really buy it! The only flaw is when you need to charge the comp needs to be on and Itunes is really complicated.
382767,2,Medeiros never disappoints!!,"This is the fourth or fifth book I've read by this author, and I'm so impressed by how she always delivers. Unlike many romance authors, she doesn't follow any particular pattern, either in subject matter or storyline. The theme of this book was unique and refreshing: a woman who's tired of being loved for her looks but, when she becomes ugly, learns that because she wasn't that beautiful ""on the inside"" to begin with, maybe her looks were the only thing about her worth loving after all, and decides to change her ways. This book contains the humor we've come to expect from Medeiros. But the book isn't so light that it lacks substance. Case in point, my favorite, heartmelting scene: Austyn, believing that Holly is about to be raped, urges her not to fight and risk her life, assuring her that he'll love her no matter what happens. This book delivered everything you could want in a romance. It's a keeper."
382818,2,If You Love the BSC Series This One's For You,"I watched these BSC videos in my late elementary school days, when my love for the BSC novels was at it's height. In Mary-Anne and the Brunettes, Mary-Anne faces off with her rival Cookie for Logan's affection. I gave this move 4 stars because, while genrally entertaining to BSC fans, others might find it too wholesome and corny. It was very interesting to see the characters in the novels come to life on the small screen. Also, I would hve liked to see something based on the plotline of a BSC novel instead of one being written specifically for the show. All in all this video is worth you half-hour espacially if your a Baby-Sitters club fan."
382848,2,No Brainer Best Collection,This collection of Diana Ross & the Supremes hits is really the true ultimate collection. The big hits are featured here. All of them. The inclusion of the Temptations collaboration completes it. I pick this CD when I want the best of Ross. It was never the same after these years.
382876,2,Breath of Magic,"Great book. Modern day story with love, magic, and time travel all weaved in. Wonderful settings with rich characters. I almost feel like I was there during the time travel changes. Scene changes so realistic. The romantic element was lively, realistic, and juicy. Not predictable and kept me guessing what would happen next. Really fun!"
382939,2,Love This CD!!!!,"I loved Lionel Ritchie and the Commodores. Every cut on the CD brings back memories of some really good times!! If you're a fan, it's a great CD to play when you have some driving to do because you can sing along on every tune. It really makes me appreciate what a great songwriter and arranger Lionel Ritchie is. Very talented guy, and the Seventies would not have been as rich without his music. It represents what I love most about much of the music recorded then. It still sounds good after all this time! Not so sure I could say that about so much of the junk I hear on the radio these days. I'm thinking about buying more copies and giving them to married friends who enjoyed his music back in the day."
382967,2,Lucky Buy,"Been using the queen size model over a month now. I don't know how they can sell this thing so cheap. It works great in our very cold climate, and it's a pretty good mattress pad. We put it on in our unheated bedroom half an hour before bed and it defrosts our 9""thick memory foam mattress very nicely. I start it on 5, then turn it down to 2 for the night. Separate controls for each side. Simple, cheap and very nice."
382982,2,Two and a half Men DVD Ninth Season,"It was all I expected, wanted to keep up with the series since I have the first Eight seasons of it."
383082,2,LOVING Fmily,"Beautiful pendant, good quality and finish. Only wish is that is came with a bettter chain, this one is too thin."
383125,2,Good - Not GREAT,"Nicely produced collection. Ms. Milman is talented, but as I listen to her back-to-back with Carmen McRae and other greats, she doesn't measure up. Enjoyable CD, though."
383146,2,Bowflex,Easy to assemble and received packasge on date that was promised. The UPS guy even helped me carry it to the room that I use it in. I have been using it for over a month and it works as promised. Great exercise product that does not take up to much space.
383195,2,The Best one Edition of Dvorak Symphony No.9,"This record is so particularly than any other records of Dvorak Symphony No.9, especially its cello and double bass part. WOW! It's so clear and powerful."
383352,2,Exellent for a baby that won't sleep,"This is the only thing that helps my baby go to sleep. She is 6 weeks old and at 1 week she cried a lot and would never take a pacifier. This is so soothing for her, it works like magic! It does go through batteries but it is definitely worth it!"
383381,2,Real None Greasy Baby Oil,"It does not leave any grease on your hands or skin. When it dries, it just feel like baby powder without any residue. It applies like a lotion. We stopped using baby oil after using this product.Somewhat expensive."
383389,2,quentin and robert,im huge tarrentino and rodriguez fan and love grindhouse movies so if your a grindhouse freak it is for you
383394,2,Great product,"Could use a better crimping tool, other than that, this is a great kit.No more looking all over for solderless connectors."
383422,2,loved it,a fast moving action packed series with lots of blood and gore. I reccomend this author above others for a fun filled supesed packed horror series about wereworlves yet has the absence of any other supernatural beings with the exception of a few witches and elementals that make the hunters life an adventure a living hell.
383432,2,Works great,"This product is everything it says it is. I was a little thrown by the fact that it fits into the slot even though it isn't the standard PCI slot size, and it isn't mentioned in the instructions, which is why I only gave it 4 stars. Almost returned it until I tried it, now I'm glad I didn't."
383464,2,Inexpensive Water Heater,"I purchased this unit because it could use (a) my existing venting (b) available natural gas pipe. It certainly met my needs of providing 2.5G of hot water to a shower and a tap. I installed it myself and I am not an experienced plumber or handyman. It is clearly one of the least expensive product on the market.On installation: There are a few minor errors in the instruction that require me to refit the unit. A significant item was the distance from the top to the holes where you hang the unit. It was also little hard to find 3/4"" to 1/2"" adapters at the local plumbing store.Unit; The unit feels a bit cheap -- the out body is made up of thin metal, the control knobs don't exactly fit in the body slots. I can't really blame them as the unit is really inexpensive. I wish someone made better unit with similar specs."
383520,2,This cookbook made my life so much easier!,"I have been looking all over for a cookbook in menu format. This one is perfect! I was looking for a fun menu for a barbecue and I went right to the section on ""Summer Barbecues"" and found just what I needed. I have already recommended this book to all my girlfriends - we take turns cooking out of it!"
383537,2,Funny and Clever !,"This was one of the best movies I have everseen and Elijah Wood makes the best performentsof the begining of his career.The movie is a littleslow at the begining but it does start to pick up thepaste a little later.Avalon is a little funny,WAIT,CAN I say it's funny or MAY I say it's funny""giggle"",don't getting whatI said,well then see the movie to find out!!!"
383721,2,Good quality at the price,"The only negative about this bible is the small fonts. Those with good eyes will not necessarily look at this as a disadvantage. But those in their senior years should definitely look for something with larger fonts. Having got that out of the way, I must say it is a decent quality bible for the price."
383833,2,Worth the money,I had it for a couple months and so far its definitely worth the money. I just wish I could hang it on the wall but thats a personal thing.
383834,2,Great value with some limitations,"I purchased this as replacement for my 20"" boat anchor CRT at work. The color is great. No dead pixels. The price was very reasonable compared to other, similar models. If it was more adjustable I would give it 5 stars. You can only tilt it vertically.The only problem I had, and I totally own this since I should have checked, is that my Asus motherboard does not support the best aspect ratio for this monitor. It is a two year old board and is not very high end. I plan to pick up an inexpensive graphics card to solve the problem and keep the monitor."
383897,2,Just as good as aluminum to me,"These are truly the best metal cake pans. They're tough as nails, as far as cake pans go, and make beautiful cakes. I'm not a professional baker, but I know the type of metal is a big deal when a professional bakes something. I think usually aluminum is chosen because it's such a great conductor. But really, I can't tell the difference between cakes baked in aluminum and cakes baked in this stainless steel. Then again, I'm not very discerning about cakes (they all taste good to me), so if stainless vs. aluminum is an issue for you, take what I say with a grain of salt and test it for yourself."
383910,2,Excellent and realistic.,"I have read parts of this book, and that which I have read has been really fun. There are handy, practical suggestions for making life at home interesting for both you and your children. It is definitely written from a Christian perspective, however one that many denominations would be more or less compatible with. If you are curious/positive about Christianity but don't consider yourself a formal believer, it will also probably work OK for you."
383986,2,The most entertaining romantic comedy a pittance can buy,"Oh, please, please, please read this book and laugh with the rest of us. You could increase the number of stars to 25 without deviating too much from maximum ratings. A marine sergeant gave the only bad review I saw here, yet still gave this book 4/5. His opinion was understandable and reasonable, hence my qualification of ""romantic"" in my summary above. Are you a marine sergeant? Only read non-fiction? Suspension of disbelief required. And, by the way, everyone is telling you the book is better than the movie because they're worried you might miss this great opportunity to entertain yourself -- even if you already have the plot in long-term memory! The dialogue and action are not-to-be-missed."
384032,2,Devotion to One's Daughter Brings Joy and Grief,"Wow! This is an amazing book.The reader takes an incredible journey with a mother who devotes her life to her developmentally disabled daughter. She is a woman of depth, singularity and authenticity of purpose who believes that her life is due to God's will. She both embraces and grieves her life for, with her devotion to her daughter Brenda Kay, comes the letting go of her dreams for another type of family.This book is beautifully, lyrically and painfully conveyed."
384096,2,great,Before I bought this rice cooker I really carefully read reviews for this and similar models. To me this one is where price meets quality.I have been using this cooker for over three years. My family absolutely love the quality of rice it makes. It's easy to operate and clean. Just don't forget to wipe water under the removable steam insert!
384110,2,A nostalgic trip to the past!,"This is a vintage album by Latin pop diva Yolandita Monge. We have to note that her early style differs markedly from the style that would characterize her later songs, as is evidenced by ESTILO Y PERSONALIDAD. An amazing performance, nevertheless! My favorites in this album include VIDA and PORQUE DISTE VUELTA A LA CARA. Although at times Yolandita can be quite charismatic in her songs, I feel that sometimes, she puts just a bit much of an emphasis on emotion. However, this CD gives us a great glimpse into her early style. I would heartily recommend it! A great addition to any Yolandita Monge collection!! Kudos to the diva!!!"
384180,2,Wonderful novel! The audioproduction made me a fan,"What a great novel! A boy who is not popular in school, in an era that was not very glamoruous, struggling to find his identity in a quickly changing world. The story is so endearing, well written and wonderfully performed in it's audio version! Matthew Wayne Selznick drew me into this new world of 'normal super-heroes' and I do hope there will be a sequel, because I'm a fan now."
384182,2,Great coming of age story,"I originally heard this novel in podcast form off of Podiobooks.com and it immediately pulled me in. This writer draws you in with great characterization and really gets teen-angst. The setting being placed in the 1980's adds an extra layer of nostalgia for an '80s kid myself and I just couldn't get enough of the Sovereign universe. If you're a fan of shows like Heroes, Freaks & Geeks or My So Called Life and/or movies like X-men you should definitely give this book a shot. You won't be disappointed."
384340,2,This Is The One!!,"This is the definitive book for all portable Zenith TO receivers. Great Photo's, Detailed descriptions and Restoration info for each TO Model. A must have TO book......it won't disappoint.Bill"
384361,2,Comfy and work well!,"I used these last night for a ballet barre workout. They kept me from sliding on slippery carpet and kept my feet from cramping, which they do when they get cold."
384453,2,Extremely interesting.,"I really enjoyed reading this book. I'm a ""full blooded"" Iranian who has spent almost her entire life in the US and I learned a lot about how difficult it is to be ""do-rageh"" as a child, a teen and as an adult. I have some friends who are mixed and I understand their situations a little bit better now.I didn't always agree with how the author represented how it is to be Iranian and sometimes I was a little angry with her but on the other hand, she did an excellent job demystifying Iranians and the Persian culture. I just came back from Iran a few months ago and a lot of the sights and smells that she describes in her book brought back a lot of good memories from my trip.I hope she explores this subject further."
384481,2,A favorite children's book,"I used to read this to a young child who is now in her 20's, and is now around small children as her job. She is looking forward to reading this to her class since it was one of her favorite books. She was thrilled with receiving this book and can't wait to see the children's reaction."
384482,2,Nifty little grabber and non-skid pad,"This is a neat little product; I have several of them.Pros:*Price is right.*More than one to a package.*A compact little tool.*Multiple uses: it not only opens jars, but can be used to keep vases and such from skidding on table surfaces.Cons:*It can't handle the heaviest duty jobs like my vacuum-sealed fruit jar, although sometimes I can manage if I hold the base of the jar with one, and the top of a jar with a second gripper."
384502,2,Awesome,I really like this little gadget. It's fun and easy to use. Easy cleanup too! I couldn't quite keep them coming as fast as it states so everyone ate dinner before I could join them but we still liked it!
384520,2,Great Blues from a Great Guitar Player - a great KING!,"The first two blues album I got as a young bloke more than 35 years ago were Albert King's ""Live Wire-Blues Power"" and one by Fleetwood Mac (when they were a proper blues band) I still love blues and ""Live Wire-Blues Power"" still gets played a lot - it is a tour de force that amazed me back then and amazes me now. Albert King is one the greatest Blues Kings and this is worthy addition to any blues collection - but if you like this King and this album you should definitely get ""Live Wire-Blues Power"""
384542,2,The art of possibility,"Excellent book, it follows with a great development, the stories are fabulous and real, and at the end your are full of energy."
384554,2,Finally something worth watching!!!,"Among the sea of reality trash TV and lame prime time sitcoms comes something worth watching! 5 starts for a great series. Although not every episode is a winner, Penn and Teller delve into each subject with a comical and skeptical eye. Buy the DVD series and lend them to your gullable friends."
384586,2,Genuine Pulitzer Prize material,"This is a thorough biography of the stubborn Charles Sumner, once the toast of both aristocratic England and the Boston Brahmins alike, but who is best known for getting his head bashed by Preston Brooks right on the Senate floor in 1856. Donald's 1960 work is a good, although not great, read and better than his more recent Lincoln biography, another Pulitzer Prize winner. (Youthful exhuberance, perhaps?) If you need any evidence of its staying power, check out the price tag that mirrors much more recent work. The demand remains high for good material, and Donald's biography is just that."
384596,2,Party fun,"This book is amusing and fun for certain situations. It's excellent for making people laugh at a birthday party; read the ""fortune"" of the honoree and then of the other guests. (Debates may break out over whether the descriptions fit.) I've also used it for wishing people happy birthday on store-bought cards and on Facebook (copying the fortune), just to add something beyond a bare ""Happy Birthday."" It also makes a cute ""happy"" when a small gift is needed."
384686,2,Give me more!,"This toy is so cute! When you feed Pooh some honey, he starts wiggling his little paws and talking. And his voice is great! He's got a soft drawl that sounds very southern. Entertainment for hours!"
384742,2,Above Expectations,"Received modulator in just a few days. As usual the directions were more confusing than necessary but still helpful. Actually, I was making it more complicated than it was. Could not get the thing to work on the new TV. Called the standby family electronic genius (grandson). He came over and in less than 30 seconds had the modulator working. He simly went to the TV menu program and opened the link to the modulator. I'm still old school where TV's have an on and off button with volume control. A real good buy and $30 cheaper than Radio Shack's version which I had to return."
384765,2,Great book - like a good friend!,I'm buying my own copy so the library can keep their copy for others to read! It's one of the best books for homeschoolers on the market!To Andreaadam - most Christian homeschoolers don't separate those two aspects of their life - we usually make Christ the center of our homes and the learning that takes place therein.To Sandship - everything I've ever read on the subject shows that the majority of homeschoolers are Christian so you can assume that most homeschooling books such as this are from a Christian viewpoint.
384769,2,One of the Best Games for XBOX,"Being a fan of all the other Doom games I figured that this one wouldn't let me down and I was right. Great graphics, story, weapons and effects. It's hard to turn this game off, it's one of those you want to play continiously. I can't think of any flaws. I recommend getting the official strategy guide so you can find all the weapons, ammo, ect... and so you won't get lost, which is easy to do without it. To make a long story short, buy this game.. get the Collectors edition (which is only $10 more), it's worth it. Doom 2 and Ultimate Doom are some of the bonus features as well as interviews, the making of the game and some other stuff."
384774,2,My son loves this video!!,"My 22-month son absolutely loves this video. He watches the entire video without getting bored. Sometimes he laughs and claps his hands. Thank you, Sesame Street!!!"
384785,2,"Lots of fun, but watch for sharp edges.","We bought this truck for my son for Christmas. He and his friends love it. They love to push each other around in it. That being said, this truck does have sharp edges in the bed that can cut or bruise if the truck tips over."
384790,2,Like finding the Holy Grail.,"For a long time indeed, I've been hunting for a dictionary that contains _all_ the most obscure words I stumble upon. Then, at last, I found this. I could hardly believe it. Kudos to Random House for publishing this. But why is it soo hard to find? I spent years browsing through book stores, and I can only remember _one_ book store that had it. Why not make some more of this? The world _needs_ a good dictionary, and Webster's always been my favourite."
384791,2,webster's encyclopedic unabridged dictionary,"the information i abtained before purchancing was very detailed and adequate. the book was marked used, however recieved looking brand new. i was extremely pleased with the condition of the book for being at such a low price. delivery was speedy."
384901,2,Cambell Hausfeld Power Washer,"I have used this power washer to wash my vehicle, a porch and a deck. It does a good job. It has a plastic coupling to attach a garden hose, so do not use the machine to drag the garden hose or you could break the coupling."
384914,2,Great Puzzle,"My 3 year old son put this one together all by himself! It took him over an hour the very first time he put it together, but now he can do it in under 3 minutes. Being a wood puzzle, it isn't as durable as I thought it would be. Some of the picture's paper has begun peeling off the pieces and my baby daughter was able to bite a piece off. Overall, it's a good buy."
384957,2,just in time,"I had lost my adapter, couldn't find it anywhere in walk-in stores, went to amazon.com found it and they had it to me in two days, just in time for my grandson's kindergarden graduation. Thank you Amazon.com!"
384965,2,What you Want to See is What You Get,"Mr. Hosada has been publishing this information since his earliest version in 1989. The earlier versions included ""Actors"" as well as ""Actresses."" In the late 1990s he released ""Updates"", additions to previous volimes. This edition has ""Actresses"" only. He has continued to update the filmographies of the actresses, so you can see other works, as well as the ""Bare Facts"", which makes it useful as a reference. I have not cross-referenced from the earlier editions, but the book doesn't seem to have dropped earlier information to add new information (other than the deletion of ""Actors"") unlike some reference books on films on TV and Video, where older movies get dropped to allow room for new ones.His ratings are factual, and he doesn't use ""cutesy"" terminology.Desirable addition to a movie documentation collection as well as an incentive to look for obscure movies to see some of the ""Bare Facts."""
385149,2,All-in-one complete supplement,"I am a true believer in this supplement. It offers everything you need; probiotics, joint support, and immune system support. I started using this for my rescued Doberman who suffered from severe demodex mange. Adding this supplement to her treatment regimen allowed her to make a complete recovery. When I unintentionally ran out of it, she relapsed within 10 days. Restarting her again brought a complete remission. Needless to say, I have not stopped giving it to her for the past 4 yrs and she has a beautiful full coat. Everyone that I have recommended use this product has had similar excellent results, for a variety of problems such as poor coat, digestive problems, diarrhea, and joint problems. My dogs love it sprinkled on their food. It is quite affordable compared to other supplements, as a little bit goes a long way. Give it a try!"
385154,2,Listening to this soundtrack is a journey like no other,"Ok, so I'm plagiarizing the Venice Simplon Orient Express slogan but it's true! Such a rich and lush set of music! So evocative and inspiring. Even though I know I'll never be able to afford the real Orient Express, I can at least listen to this CD and go on that legendary trip in my mind whenever I wish."
385205,2,Couldn't live without it!,"This carrier is a lifesaver - my baby won't sit in a stroller if awake, but loves the carrier. I use it daily - it's the only way I can get anything done, and is so much more convenient than a stroller at the store. We use it for hiking, and it fits well for my husband (who is 6'4"") and myself (5'4""), The only drawback is that I find it uncomfortable on my back after a while - I wish I had bought the sport version with the extra back support, I think it would have been worth the money now that I know how much I use it."
385208,2,Good purchase,I purchased this baby carrier after I purchased the Ergo Baby Organic baby carrier and the Baby Bjorn performs much better. The Baby Bjorn carrier can pull on your neck & lower back if worn too long or while walking uphill so be careful to take breaks or rest periodically.
385292,2,Patagonia Long Underwear top,what can i say another outstanding patagonia made product that meets all my backcountry needs and expectations. one of the finest products out there that totally meets and exceeds my previosu experience of patagonia and their outstandign products.
385293,2,Five Stars - bought it for my daughters,"I grew up watching it and I remember it as being such a racy show. Ha! Compared to what is considered 'family viewing' now, Facts of Life is tame, tame, tame. And that's a compliment. It's a show about CARING for your friends, building loving, human relationships with peers. Adore this series! I'm so glad I can put it on and my kids and watch it. Dispite it's dated-ness, fashion-wise, my girls love it. All the same problems exisit today. The humanity and close relationships built on good old respect really makes this series as STANDOUT in today's brisk society. I'm having a great time rewatching them!"
385394,2,Comprehensive and Friendly Primer on Medical Ethics,"Having used this volume and its previous editions for over 20 years, the latest edition provides an easier read for those not steeped in traditional, philosophical writing. While emphasizing the importance of the blended principled approach to bioethics (autonomy, non-maleficence, beneficience, justice) the authors in this latest edition invite the reader to a deeper appreciation of the widening diveristy in ethical approaches, including such approaches as the ethics of care. An important read as well as a practical tool for leaders who seek to sharpen their thinking abilities and broaden their knowledge base in the area of health care.Dr. James Wells, NHA, D.MinSenior Living Institute13 Roszel Rd. C120Princeton, NJ 08540"
385400,2,HARRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS ON PS2,"Harry Poter and the Chamber of Secrets is a hard but fun game. Once you beat a level it is very hard to stop. There was one level I enjoy very much. To get Ginny's brass scales in the Magical Menageri. It is hard and scary. It is not that hard now, but I love it. I love that part.Somethings I don't like about the game is:1. Hermiones favors. If she knows were the stuff is, can't she get it herself?!2.The prefects. They are very annoying. When they find you and blow you up. Then they shake their fingers at you. Sometimes they don't even look at you. They walk to you then turn away. I dont like it.Anyways, the graphics of this game and PS2 are great!"
385409,2,Ginger Drink is great!,This Ginger Drink is great. It smells wonderful and tastes as good as it smells. I like to add a little milk to it. It seems to help my raspy throat.
385471,2,SHUT YOUR MOUTH,"The previous Smackdown games were more just fighting games. This one takes a grand step toward a simulator, which is what a WWE game needs to be. No Mercy on the N64 stands out in my mind as the best wrestling simulator ever made. Shut Your Mouth, while more realistic, is still lacking in the sim field. A near complete lack of a submission system makes me sad, but the interesting career mode and many, MAY match types make up for it quite a bit. The create-a-wrestler is more HUGE than ever, and the ability to save over 30 created wrestlers is EXCELLENT. While this game is awesome, I expect the next one to be twice as good."
385526,2,I do like this book but....,"Yes, I really do like her writting style, especially the prologue. I was captivated throughout the book only because of her writting style and not because of the plot like I normally would with other romance books. I also like the attitude of the heroine. She is so confident (in her own term), down to earth, realistic and lovely.The only irritation I got from the book is the sound ""Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh"" and ""Ahhhhhhhhhhhh"" when Benedict and Sophie made love. It wasn't supposed to be there, right?? It seems to be the sound people often make when they have their first sexual encounter or when they were in high school. It sounds ridiculous to me, just the soft moan or whispers of each other's names would do. It just doesn't get along very well with the hero and the heroine and the mood of their love-making."
385577,2,"Good, yet, not.","Puff Daddy is cool and knows how to arrange a good CD, but he doesn't have any nog (his own stuff). Note the lack of songs where it's him rapping by himself and then look at who you're saying did the CD! It's all other rappers, and, even though it says Puff Daddy and the Family, Puff Daddy's given all of the credit. It's still a great CD though, when you get past that, at least."
385615,2,EXTRAORDINARY EXTRAVAGANZA!!!!!!!,"This production was by far, the best I have ever seen! My husband is a tough critic and loved the show!! Although we thoroughly enjoyed Lord of the Dance, Celtic Tiger is truly as extravaganza!!! The special effects are magnifigent!!!!!! It contained a greater, more meaningful story line that gives a warm insight into Irish families who migrated to America and takes you through the time in America when they arrived. The costumes are certainly more elaborate and diversified, and the dancing is superb--more versatile and fluid. The music--fantastic!I felt exuberated after watching this show, proud to be of Irish heritage and always proud of be an American.Seriously doubt Michael Flatly and cast could EVER top this one!!!"
385624,2,What DVD problems? Mine work great!,"Just received this as a gift from the Easter Bunny, and watched half the episodes today without one skip, hiccup or any other problem of any kind.If you're a fan of the show, these DVDs are a must have, period. Relive the good old days with the best show on television and order these--and all the other seasons--now!"
385629,2,Wow! What a great book. I am a better snow goose hunter now!,I learned 7 or 8 things that I did not know in this book. The book was great. Thanks - Amazon.Com
385643,2,Passionate Romance,I just love Sandra Hill's series of Viking Romance novels. But this is my absolute favorite one. She is able to bring the characters to life and she is just an absolute master at creating and building up the suspense toward the passion. I have fallen in love with her work and can't wait for more to come out.
385658,2,Great product,This is a definite improvement over Microsoft Office 2003. It has alot of very nice additional features. It works with Office 2003 if you are interacting with people who have Office 03. I would highly recommend it.
385711,2,This book touches on everything about the tarot,"This book is very fun easy to read, I couldn't put the book down! When I was done reading this book, I felt more comfortable with the basic interpretations of the cards, even the reversals. She also teaches basic astrology, numerology, a little history, meditation techniques, etc. If you are a beginner, I would definately recommend this book along with ""A Complete Guide to the Tarot"" by Eden Gray, which got very good reviews, and it's only 6.99. Both of these books combined together will give you a very good foundation for tarot card reading, interpretation and awakening, take my word for it! Have fun reading!"
385786,2,"A must read, inspirational guide book for living and loving.","Ever since I discovered the Urantia Book I cannot put it down. The Audio book has been incredibly helpful because the book is lengthy, and I listen to it while I'm driving to and from work. I initially started at Part I - The Central and Superuniverses, but got a little bogged down with all the new terminology, so I went straight to Part IV, The Life and Teachings of Jesus, which I just finished. I was moved to worshipful tears repeatedly. Part IV covers Jesus' life in beautiful detail, and explains how the early church got started, as well as the True Gospel of Jesus, which has gotten distorted through the ages. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to understand their personal relationship with God."
385817,2,Once I figure out to raise this by myself...,"When erecting the tent for water-proofing purposes, I did need the help of one other person. However, I have a couple of ideas to improve that situation (to be tried out in a couple of weeks.) It is a nice looking tent (for the money, especially.) Although the top of the tent is nearly all netting, the rain sheet seems to cover it well. I did purchase some stronger and longer stakes (those included wouldn't hold well in sandier ground conditions.This was a warehouse item from Amazon, and the ordering, price, and shipping made it a great deal in my opinion."
385908,2,great dvd,Really great dvd loved it when I had the vhs but starting to go watched it so much glad found on dvd finally.
385969,2,Outstanding!,"I've used both the Linksys products and this D-Link AirPlus w/the AirPlus card. The AirPlus, hands down, blows the others away. I have full signal strength anywhere in the house! The firewall configuration is the most advanced I have seen for a product like this. It will even open up incoming ports based on the time of day from a NTP server! If you're going wireless, the D-Link AirPlus series is definitely the way to go. I'm getting my friends to dump their Linksys's and go with this one."
386044,2,Amusing and Entertaining,"From my perspective, I saw a troubled marriage riddled with repeat arguments over the same subject, lack of agreement with goals and values and distractions from the issues of their marriage. I saw a couple who lost their way together and regret the choices made that gave rise to it crumbling. A love story about restoration combined with perfect comedic timing; I so needed to laugh and this play provided plenty of opportunities. The balance of dialogue and music worked for me, there was an actual storyline that was presented nicely and accompanied by music that wasn't overpowering or too much. My only reservations pertain to the editing of the play, it was obvious that the battle between the boys was cut short, I wish the battle had played out in its entirety. For this reason I wish I had seen the play live. Overall, Cheaper to Keeper was simply entertaining and enjoyable."
386066,2,5 years old and still kicking,"I purchased this steamer back in 2007 and have used it about once or twice a month for the past 5 years. I like that the handle extends and that the feet suction cup to the bottom of the pan you are using. I haven't really used any other steamers but the only addition i can think of that would make this steamer better would be to put rubber on the ends of the fins so that there is no chance of it scratching a non stick pan. Other than that, it works as advertised and will steam your veggies for many years."
386079,2,Great reading,"I loved it. Full of Old World Charm. A must read, if you enjoy ""Bizarre"" tales of Love and time travel then this is it. You wont be able to put it down! Cant wait for the next one to come out."
386088,2,Great CD,"Great soothing CD for Christmas, especially as background music at a party during the season. I have no complaints. Good CD."
386106,2,Best book I have read about the Five Points of Calvinism,"Edwin Palmer does a good jog explaining and defending the Five Points of Calvinism. I recommend this book to any person, Calvinist or Arminian, who is interested in learning about this topic."
386114,2,my dog's favorite,"These retriever rolls are my dog's absolute favorite. Mine too! They are clean, stay clean, and last long. I've ordered these twice before. Great buy."
386138,2,MAKO'S MANY MEN!,"Mako's presents us with his latest collection of handsome young men in this Stonewall Inn Pocket size edition book. There are 48 photos of young, attractive men covering a wide range of head shots, formal compositions, and in your face nudes. Mako's has a keen eye and talent for bringing the stark reality of the male nude in natural poses to his audience. It makes you wonder what these guys are really like or would that destroy the fantasy. Just look at the facial expressions.Stonewall put out a series of these small pocket size books by many photographers. A great idea, and ""Makos"" is one of the best in the series and I highly recommend it."
386177,2,One of the Best!,"I bought this toy for my son when he was four months old. It was a hit the first time he played with it, and he is still playing with it at 11 months. It has gone everywhere with us and has been washed in the washing machine numerous times without damaging the toys AT ALL. He loves the clam that squeaks the most, but he enjoys all of the various fish. He takes them out and puts them in. He has a lot of fun with them. Nothing holds his attention for very long, but he enjoys this toy very much. The toys are small enough to be grasped by his little hands and they can also be put into our diaper bag easily. I highly recommend this toy."
386209,2,Fits my Specialized,"Very pleased with this rack. Fits my Specialized with disc brakes as though it were made specifically for it. Only took 10"" to install. Works exactly as described. Instructions could be better, but with just a bit of trial and error, it slipped right into place."
386319,2,WAY TO COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"I think that Elephander is awesome. I like that it has three modes Normal,Fighter and Commander.I built the commander mode,the first time that the commander aired on the zoids show was when that liger 0 finally changed to panzer.Overall I tkink that there is nothing wrong with Elephander except that it takes a little while to build,it took me about 5 hours and thirty minutes to build."
386331,2,Works VERY well and cleans up quick too!,"This is a gem! My 2 year old can't get enough rice so I figured it was time to find a way to make it and keep it ready to go for a solid day. This Zojirushi does the job quick and VERY well. Not only does it cook and keep rice ready to be eaten, it is also VERY easy to clean which is half the battle with any kitchen cooking machine. I am also amazed at all the other items it can cook too. Not the cheapest or the most expensive rice cooker out there, but it does what it says and the price is fair too. Oh, and it plays cute little songs when its done cooking (please don't tell my buddies I used the word ""cute"" ;) )..."
386355,2,well written,"Good book,and different than what I usually like to read. I tend to like ""crime"" novels and read people like Patterson, Sandford,Connelly because I like the prose and style in which they tell stories. However, a well written story is a well written story and ""Hell at the Breech"" is certainly solid and very interesting to boot.I was not aware that the story itself has a basis in factual events, but Franklin convincingly makes the reader enter that time and space in American Folklore. His characters are deeply flawed and often conflicted, but believable and real.The story centers around vigilantes around the end of 1890's, and the general lawlessness that existed during that period.I thoroughly enjoyed it!"
386368,2,Great travel companion!,"I have used both the Rome and Paris map books and found them to be fabulous!! Easy to carry, easy to read and compact so you don't have to fold those miserable city maps. It breaks down the map by neighbourhood and specifies some of the things to see. We use it mainly for the map. Throw away those hotel maps!! Loved them so much that I bought a 2nd Rome, 2 additional copies of Paris for friends, Venice, Florence, Barcelona & London. Highly recommend them."
386418,2,Large supply,I have used other anti-seize permatex products but I had never seen the nickel so I wanted to buy a large container and I would have this probably forever.
386450,2,Xbox DVD Playback Kit,Works great. Brand new in package. Very reliable. If you don't have one for your old Xbox get one! It's worth it. Plays any type of DVD.
386452,2,great blade,Cuts great. Vet told me which sizes to get to trim problem coats. Got this one and a size 5. Now I can do my own grooming.
386516,2,Great game,"All right everyone says that this game is not good for younger kids, which they are right. But, and yes there is a but, the game could be played by kids 13 or older if they know the differance between the game and real life.Anyway, the game is incredible, the graphics are not great but they are way better than the first gta's. It is totally fun. You can do things like pick up hookers, steal cars (of course), work missions for the mob and much much more. The cars are so cool.Throughout the game you will make many enemies, especially with a gang called the triads. Another gang that hates you is the diablos, but only if you take their cars, which are so cool.Overall the game is great go get it right now if you can find it. I had to wait like 3 weaks to get mine!"
386589,2,Beautiful Music,"These people ""bother"" because some people, such as myself, truly like this music. It is a great CD!"
386623,2,16 yr old review,"i just finished reading All I Want Is Everything. i was so excited when it came out, i had waited for 4 months for it to come out. im a little disappointed at what happens, i wish blair and nate would get back together. but i am very excited for the 4th one to come out. all the books are great. im glad i found something i can relate to, instead of those old boring books in school. but until the 4th one comes out ill ahve to wait. You Know You Love Me."
386917,2,Fun concertos...,This is a great CD. Buy it! You'll love the melodies and listen to every track over and over (as I did).
386938,2,Awesome....,"I love it... Intially i had so much of confusion which one to buy, at the same time i dont want to put much money... Based on tbe reveiw i bought it and now am using everday... Its so helpful.I recommend this to everyone. It's easy to use...even in travel.i absolutely love this product."
386948,2,LOVE IT!!!,"This is the second of the triology: Champion Dreams, Horsez and Petz Horsez 2. The game is quite fun, as much as Champion Dreams and the main characters are invovled. I bought this 3 years ago and I'm still playing, btw I'm 46 years old."
386968,2,Good Book,I am happy with the reasponse from Amazon. I had no problems with the book or the service.
386986,2,Delightful,"Not the best performances, and there were a couple of scenes that caused me to say ""huh?"", but I have to admit that days later I was still touched by this little movie. I found myself caring for the main couple more than I thought I would."
387015,2,Definitely worth buying,After reading the reviews on this book I decided to buy it. I was a bit skeptical that the book would have that much information in it that I did not know. I mainly bought it figuring I could use some help with the toasts. I have to say the postings are quite accurate. There was probably more in the book that I did not know than I did know. I really recommend this book along with the other postings about it. This book was a big help.
387249,2,Amazing Value,"We got the ""Grow With Me Collection"" after we tried Brainy Baby's ""First Words."" My daughter was 18 months old at the time and slow to start talking. After six months of therapy with a licensed S/LP (once per week) and these videos for 40 minutes a day, my daughter was talking in time for her second birthday! She still enjoys this collection and is building her vocabulary little by little each day.These videos are captivating for small children so they tend to sit through them and actually absorb the material. I would highly recommend these DVDs to anyone who has a speech-delayed child."
387274,2,good guide to juicing,this is a very good book. Has a lot of healthy juice recipes. I like the fact that it tells you what vegetables are good for what ails you. Would recommend this for Juicing for health.
387282,2,One of the Best,I am a yankee but sure do want to be a southerner after reading this cookbook. The recipes are so easy and not all need exotic ingredients but easy to find items at the local grocery store. The sidebars are very entertaining. I hope to host my first catered party for friends in the spring. This is one cookbook that will be out on the kitchen counter all the time.
387402,2,Just Like Being There,"Interesting collection of profiles that read unremarkably like Terry Gross' interviews sound: light and playful, meant for entertainment more than insight. Makes a good bedside or travel companion. The Uta Hagen and Gene Simmons interviews I found most entertaining and revealing. Would recommend to anyone I would have to face afterwards."
387405,2,Mcnett Camo Form,this item was just what i was looking fori used it to protect a riflescope from hitting a mirage band (metal part of the mirage band fixation )it is very strong and easy to put on
387427,2,I love this book!,"The images and words in this beautifully constructed book are tools in building hope through difficult loss. Covered are the loss of someone who has died, the loss of health, relationship endings, career changes or job loss and family stage changes. I have it opened on my desk to different pages that fit different days, where I might want to encourage someone or be encouraged. The photographs are truly poetry in and of itself, blending beautifully with the words."
387441,2,Wonderful but rare video,I saw this in 1992 and it is a beautiful production. I only wish I could find it in a digital format!
387455,2,If only it didn't leave you red handed,"Great hose reel. Very heavy and well built and i'd give it five stars if it were not for one little detail. The hose that is supplied seems to have missed the addition of whatever chemical ingredient that keeps it from depositing its red color on everything it touches including your hands. I tried wiping the whole thing down with denatured alcohol to no avail. Oh well. Despite the fact that I was able to install mine on the ceiling by myself I doubt that any ordinary person could do the installation alone. Yeah, it's that heavy."
387456,2,Great Concert,"YES after ALL these years still sound fantastic. I was pleasantly surprised and it goes to show that ""US OLD MEN"" can still ROCK !!"
387462,2,Pretty good for the price,Tried a lot of squeegies along the way. This one is decent. A bit wider than most and works well. The wall holder is a nice holder.
387489,2,!,"Great product, I use this to connect my wireless 360 controller so I can play minecraft on my Dell. It had microsoft all over the product. I recommend this to anyone"
387511,2,Amazing,"What with 'biologically blue' (damn i love that song), 'ireland' and 'steal away' and the rest of the songs on this album, it is by far a work of excellency. Guaranteed to get those feet tapping and put a smile on your face. Greg is an amazing artist, and even amazinger live!! I'm so glad i discovered his music - just feel sorry for those out there that haven't!!"
387567,2,CASIO,"The product is good enough: i got exactly what I intended to get.In is not expensive, but it looks good and works very good."
387630,2,Passionate Perfection,"This is the best recording I have listened to in years, and I will never get tired of it. It is a classic in all respects. Not only does it include all my favorite styles of music-- Celtic, rock, classical, worship-- but it enlists my entire being to take it all in. Genius of composition and virtuousity of performance come together to express a wide range of thoughts and moods in what is a musical experience that is rare indeed. Layers of beautiful instrumentation, fascinating rhythmical textures, angelic voices and mystical lyrics all fabulously work together to showcase what I consider the best feature of all: Bainbridge's soaring electric guitar work. No one sings as he does. ""Veil of Gossamer"" is a masterpiece."
387646,2,how americans do not regard themselves,"mr. eco comes with a kind of considerations somewhat unfamiliar to a part of the american people. therefore, this book could be an exercise for improving the american individual's self-image"
387660,2,Great product for couponing,"I purchased the 9 Pocket Page Protectors to store my coupons. They work great for that use. They allow easy visibility, easy access, and they are durable. I will be purchasing more very soon."
387745,2,It's different but I enjoyed it,"It's not your typical animated feature. It's adult themed (more than a little gore, killing, etc) Having read Extremis, it's very true to the original material. It's not truly 'animated', but more of a 'moving comic'. It's difficult to compare this to recent DC and Marvel releases - mainly because of the stylistic differences. All in all, I enjoyed it."
387751,2,Qabalah WMT style,"This book is a really good read. It is actually part the framework for the training of the Sangreal Sodality. There are questions at the end of each chapter to test your reading. William Gray goes through meditation techniques, pathworking, linking the tarot with the Tree of Life and the various philosophies associated with the tree of life. You won't waste your money with this book."
387760,2,Bewitchment. Excellent album. Pakistan.,"Tabla, harmonium, percussion and songs. Very energetic, perfect to dance alone in your livingroom!"
387766,2,I love this book!,I have long hair and this book is just what I needed to learn new styles. It is a great book and easy to follow the instructions to learn the styles. The book arrived in a timely manner at a good price. The seller included a note on nice paper. I would recommend this seller and the book.
387772,2,"Good book,but I have just that book not cassettes","I need to have those cassettes as well, but I don't find any sense that I had to buy whole package 'cause it not possible to buy just cassettes. Is it really so?"
387773,2,Limoge Lovers Beware!,"Having purchased all three of Debby DuBay's Limoges books, one can only wonder how they could ever resist the lure of the hunt for these beautiful pieces of porcelain. Debby's books only whet the appetite for more! Each book has been informative and interesting. They are well written and keep the reader yearning to expand their knowledge of collecting and designing with Limoges. All three of her books rate a 5 star rating. I had an opportunity to meet Debby in her Andover, Mass. shop last summer and spent two hours with her being enriched with her passion and knowledge of Limoges porcelain."
387780,2,great product.,"this is an amazing product. the only annoying thing is, you cannot disassemble it back to it's original packaging... this is really not nice..."
387929,2,Its a whole punch..,"If you need a cheap whole punch this one works like it should. Can a whole punch really be bad? I'm glad I haven't found out, This one does what it needs to do."
387946,2,My Son My Son,The best and most helpful book I have ever read on this subject. It has helped me and my family immensely.
387957,2,Shade it,"Another great lens hood at a great price. Again not a tulip hood because the lens focus barrel turns and having a tulip lens cover on the lens would defeat the purpose if the lens hood is at the wrong angle, plus you would look stupid, don't do that."
387981,2,Brilliant dialogue outshines cheesy special effects.,"I've been waiting for this show on DVD since my first DVD player. The writing is superb, the tone is dark--as fond as I am of Star Trek, Blake's 7 makes Kirk and the crew of the Enterprise look like Barney and Friends."
387988,2,creating 3-D animation,Book arrived quicker and was in far better condition than I was expecting. Great buy!
388044,2,Word Eater!,Book Review- I liked the part in wordeater where Learner found out that Fip a worm could eat words. Why I liked it or not- Why I liked it is because there was a worm that could acually eat words. How it could be better- It would be better if wordeater had another character and if they added more details and a wordeater #2. Why I read it- I read it because my reading teacher told me and the rest of the class to read it. S.K & P.S
388050,2,First attempt at fiction went pretty darn well!,"Dave Barry has done a wonderful job on his first fiction novel. I found myself laughing out loud at parts. In a style reminiscent of Carl Hiassen, Barry introduces a cast of unforgettable characters and a hillarous commentary on society and especially South Florida."
388105,2,For beginners,"I'm, fifty years old and have only dabbled in fitness over my lifetime. I was looking for some variety to get me back into some much needed physical activity. This workout is by no means easy. I was a member of the Y 25 or so years ago and attended some of their exercise classes. This pilates DVD is exactly some of the same exercises I did in that class, except we didn't use bands then. I would say for someone who has lived a sedintary life, the workout with the band would be challenging but not impossible. These kinds of workouts can really be followed along at your own pace. The stretch feels great!!"
388128,2,Great Product,"I got this receiver because it sends the signal to the TV in HD. I have an older HDTV that came without the receiver. Easy to set up, the HD picture and sound are great."
388137,2,Visual Feast,"I found this book to be a very rich and inspiring perspective on the historic use of photography. Wonderfully illustrated with examples from the beginnings of photo-experimentation to masters like Richard Avedon, this tome is worth buying for the illustrations alone. If you like this comprehensive analysis of the frisson between representation and being, I also recommend ""Pictures of the Body, Pain & Metamorphosis"" by James Elkins."
388145,2,Why is everyone grumbling about this book?,"Police work isn't always like the show ""Law and Order"" - exciting with a lot of plot. What this book gives us is the everyday workings of a police officer. I'm personally enjoying this book and reading it for what it is."
388213,2,"Great, Grand, and Wonderful!","I have read many nonfiction medical experiences but none were as fun and constantly interesting as this one was. I loved the quick wit humor, the down to earth descriptions, and his love for his wife (I did experience postpartum depression for her due to her continuous pregnancies)! Dr. Collins tries to be modest in his descriptions of how he felt incapable many times during his residency but his true high intelligence comes through in his actions and sincere feelings for his profession and people. I live in Minnesota so I appreciate his respect he had for the Mayo Clinic and the surrounding communities. I will grab the next publication he writes without hesitation. This book was too short!"
388239,2,First time Koontz reader enjoyed it...,"I have never read any of Dean Koontz's novels, and just picked this one up randomly. I really enjoyed the story, but it is so violent & disturbing that I felt guilty for reading it. However, all in all, I did enjoy the book. Can anyone suggest better Koontz books for me to read?"
388273,2,Useful and Informative,I have read this book cover to cover and found it useful and informative. I went through thyroid surgery and it was comforting to read that what I felt and experienced was a normal part of the process and recovery. The book gives enough detail to keep you informed without going into indepth medical detail. It was easy to read and I would highly recommend it to patients and their families.
388281,2,An excellent writer,"Robert Doherty is definately a science fiction writer by the books that he has published. Unfortunatly, you can't start Area 51 : The Reply and understand what is going on because the new book relates to the past books in the series, which leads you to confusion at certain parts if you have not read his previous books. But if you have read the rest of the series, you will enjoy the book MUCH better. So keep this in mind when you buy a series like this."
388290,2,Good value but requres small ornamental bulbs,"This fan looks good and was easy to install. However, I was disappointed to learn that the light kit does not use standard size bulbs. They are the small size that require you to use the ""ornamental"" bulbs, which are more expensive and limit your choices."
388293,2,it is great and I was pleased,when i reade this book it was lick a shock to me and my brothers he went through so much pain and life thertings. I just wish that more peopel were positvi back then. Iwould recomend it to any young adult for them to see whates it lick to live a hard life.
388322,2,wonderful,The package comes with two CDs. The first is the original recordings; the second is the remixed versions. The songs are wonderful and remind me of Chinese versions of Edith Piaff and Rosemary Clooney.I strongly recommend this!
388339,2,Finally a gate for Ferrets!!!!,"I have bought many, many baby gates for the purpose of containing my ferrets....eventually they always figure out how to get over it! It has been weeks and they can't get over it....truly a excellent choice for a ferret gate!"
388405,2,Have the tissues ready,"If you're a fan of the show, you KNOW that it just keeps getting better every year. And while the Christmas Specials are ""side"" stories, they tend to create some of the most unique moments. If you are a fan, you already know how this special ends. But if you have missed seeing it until you buy this (which you MUST do!), then have the tissues ready. The last 15 seconds make it worth every penny you will spend."
388442,2,Flawless beginners guide...,"While not an exhaustive resource, this book is easy to read, understand and apply. I recommend it highly to anyone starting a business, expanding an existing business or in need of capital for growth."
388443,2,An Excellent Concise Reference to Evangelical Theology,"I first encountered this book when our church decided to use it as a text to teach the basic doctrines of the Bible. Since I was to be one of the teachers you can well imagine the number of hours I've spent with this book. I have always found it to be a faithful guide with a thorough subject and scripture index. It is easy to use it as a reference because of its fine indexing.I have found it to be consistent with the teachings of the Bible and to clearly and simply present the major doctrines of scripture. At the end of the book are 53 pages of appendices and a two page addenda which cover a variety of pertinent topics from ""The Gift of Tongues"" to ""Christian Forgiveness.""I recommend this book highly for any Christian library."
388447,2,A darker story,"I have been eagerly following the adventures of Catherine and Edgar. This book takes them to Scotland, where Edgar has been summoned to avenge the death of his two older brothers. This is a more complex story than the others, with lots of clerical and political wrangling. And yes, I did find the ending a little weak. But the characterizations, and the surprise ending compensate a bit, I think.Catherine and Edgar both continue to change and to mature as they struggle to meet the challenges life presents them. No, this story isn't as humorous as the first one, for example, but it allows us another glimpse into the relationships between the main characters, and also into life in 12th century Scotland."
388482,2,I liked the Playstation 2!!,"I think that the Xbox controller is too confusing. It has too many buttons and all of that. The PS2 is probably the best, considering that in the fall, you can play 5 Dance Dance Revolution games on it, while Xbox only has 1! My friend has a Cube, and I'll admit, the Mario and Pok'emon and such are pretty fun. But, half of all new games are on all systems. So, half of them are on PS2. It's a lot easier with the controller and everything. But my friend says A for X and so on"
388578,2,Screenplays... Just Add Imagination,"I have been trying to develop my screenplays for years, but have always struggled against having to force the Industry Standard Script Format into my scripts. With this program, I can concetrate on the words rather than worrying about the formatting. The program effortlessly snaps into the Industry Standard and makes writing dialogue a snap.With a number of tools built in, this is an invaluable piece of software for any screenwriter's library. It practically pays for itself in the time it saves and the information it can pump out about your stories."
388605,2,Adventures of Black Beauty Vol. 2,"I loved the series. My only gripe is that Judi Bowker isn't in this season. Other than that, the original cast, plus a few extras, are there."
388669,2,"Episode ""Adventure on Happiness Street""","The end of Adventure on Happiness Street seems to be missing; it finishes abruptly, no end conclusion by Stanwych and no end credits.We are still on disc 1 and are really enjoying the series"
388699,2,"""LeAnn Fan""","LeAnn sings beautiful remakes of mostly Patsy Cline songs. Her powerful voice is sensational and she remarkably sounds like Patsy Cline. My favorite songs are ""Me and My Bobby MaGee"" and her smash hit ""Big Deal"" both songs are up-beat in contrast to the other 10 tracks on this CD. I also enjoy her singing ""Crazy"" which is on track 1. LeAnn is truly a sensational singer and this CD displays her powerful voice. She is multi-talented in singing country and pop songs in this CD."
388760,2,There is more than meets the eye.,"This book gives insight into film editing like no other. the other reviewers said that the book did not really help into any actual editing technioques in real life, well perhaps that is why there are NO actual ways to edit. With today's editing suites, you drag and drop, cut, and you're done. What Walter Murch is giving you are lessons that go deep beyond that. How to tell when a good cut is there, when the emotional moment tells you to cut, how to recognize it. If you want to learn a jump cut, or editing tricks, then pick up something else, but if you want to learn how to recognize the story in your film, and how to tell it in the way that only you can, then pick this book up, and read in between the lines."
388798,2,captives free,I feel like this book had things that I needed to know about life and the unseen things around me. I believe that I learned things that no one was ever going totell me even if they knew. I thank Dr Brown and all the people who participatedin this story for their input.
388863,2,The best 5ive book,"This book is the official one and I noticed 5ive put their own special messages at the end, check out Scott's one it's funny. Anyway, this book rulz. It has all the info on each 5iver and even a quiz they answered themselves. Loads of good pics and lots of info on how they started and stuff like that. If you're a 5ive fan and you want some info on those great guys buy this book it's the best because it's official!"
388934,2,A breath of Fresh air for the Muslims,After reading this book it seems like the Muslims are human.I used to think they are natural born killers.Richard
388939,2,Nice and Wide Gaffer's Tape,"I'm not sure why they call it Gaffer-Style tape, as this is gaffer's tape, pure and simple. The linen fibers in the tape provide excellent tear resistance and make this tape exceptionally strong. The low gloss black finish is somewhat reflective, but not excessively so. My only reservation is the adhesive's sticking ability, as it is somewhat less tenacious than that on professional grade tape. I have not had any gear come loose, but with a full 3 inch width that is not surprising. Overall I find this extra wide tape a good choice, without the very high price of professional grade tapes."
388940,2,"Bye, Bye, Thinset","We wanted to replace about 1500 sq feet of floor tile set on concrete with about 3/8"" of thinset. The tile was easy to remove using Bosch's SDS Plus hammer drill, but the thinset did not want to come up. So I took a gamble a bought the Bosch concrete surfacing grinder. Its great! It's so easy to use my wife did about 95% of the grinding. And if you hook the grinder to a good shop vac there is hardly any dust."
389026,2,Seventeen Mysteries In The Tradition Of Agatha Christie,"Mystery writers from Britain, Australia and America come together in this collection of traditional mysteries. Anne Perry, in her introduction, is witty, informative and sets the scene perfectly for the stories that follow. I especially liked the first story written by Agent No. 5 and Agent No. 6 (Edward Marston and Peter Lovesey). Unusual and very funny. As with the previous books in the Malice Domestic series, it is good way to check out mystery writers you may not be familiar with. I've discovered quite a few of my favorite authors this way. There's only one problem. I've read all of the books in the Malice Domestic series now, one through six, and I'll have to wait until next year for number seven"
389064,2,Like it,"I ordered this to cook a lot of onion rings, quickly. When I received the pot, I thought the metal on the bottom of the pot is a little thin. After using it once and I think it works perfectly for what I am going to use it for. I think it is a good investment."
389135,2,Classic Ventures,"If you're reading this, you're probably already a Ventures fan. This album is a good selection of some of their most popular tunes, so you won't be disappointed. You can, however, probably find all these songs on another of their many albums. If you're like me, you might just listen to one of these songs (Hawaii Five-O) and have it stuck in your head for days, so beware! And enjoy!"
389335,2,Good price performance ratio,The description of the book and its condition was very short but correct. The interior pages are very good (!) and the cover has the typical used look (as described!). Unfortunately the cover gets a bit loose from the inside - I was surpised. But over all the the price perfomance ratio was good.
389360,2,Excellent workout!,"This is great mix of Yoga and Martial Arts workout. I very much like Cameron's down to earth style. The workout has clear and easy to follow instructions and is apt for the beginner-intermediate range. I like the flexibility of the 30, 40 or 50 minute lenght that can accomodate your schedule.The kit contains the above mentioned workouts, an eating guide mostly based on fruits and vegetables and which I particularly did not care for since I thought it very restrictive (extremely light breakfast progressing to a heavier meal). It also includes a 56 min. relaxation CD titled Self Empowerment with Cameron's soothing voice and music by Jonathan Wilson"
389381,2,The only complete book of business communication,"I did enjoy every page of this book, although I haven't read all of them. It's more an encyclopedia, which you may use in your day-to-day business, than something you will read straight through over the weekend. Very valuable and up-to-date were the chapters about intercultural and e-mail communication. Strong recommendation."
389384,2,Relief in Phoenix,"Bought this for my new Sonata, and it does make a difference in the desert heat. I would say it keeps my car about 20 degrees cooler inside. I no longer flinch when I grab the steering wheel. Easy to put in place and to store."
389385,2,A GREAT BOOK,"This book is wonderful. It's fun and funny, well written and imaginative. This is not another cookie cutter chick lit book. It has all the qualities you look for, like humor and interesting relationships, but it is also very innovative storytelling."
389397,2,ITCH? THESE WORK!,LEFT REVIEW FOR THE 20 WIPES IN A PACK. THESE ARE INDIVIDUALLY PACKED{ONE TO A PACK}.GREAT FOR ALWAYS KEEPING SOME IN YOUR PURSE.

389439,2,GREAT - MADE FOR TV 70'S HORROR,"Let me add my voice to the others who have already raved about ""The Norliss Tapes"". I had almost forgotten how good TV was in the 70's! Now thanks to DVD's when ""Reallity - TV"" has me ready to throw a brick at my screen. I can escape to something well written and with some kind of producion values.Some will remark on the lack of or quality of the Special Effects. For instants there is little in the way blood and gore by todays standards.This was obviously a pilot for a series and it leaves you at the end of the Chapter 1 tape in the Norliss book which leaves you wondering what chapter two would have held."
389474,2,great for a younger person,I love the look of these earrings. I will probably give as a gift to one of my younger nieces.The sale price clinched the purchase for me.
389594,2,FLAPPIN FLOP OF HOW DO THEY DO THAT!?,"to put edgar meyer's bass playing in perspective.... the two top cellos at my school walked in the room while i was listening to this and their jaw's dropped...... then when they heard the furious and yet passionate bass drop down six octaves they jumped back in awe! ""that's a bassist!?"" now.. having said that... not once does his work take away from the song... and both of the other players are astonishing through the entire album. I love this CD..... R&B.... Fusion... Jazz... Country... Rock... Classical.... as long as you dig music and not a genre of it... just as a woman loves the diamond on her ring and not just one facet of it....you'll probably enjoy this CD.... very thoroughly."
389601,2,Happy Camper,"KitchenAid products can't be beat.This standmixer,with an all chrome finish is very easy cleanup,and pleasing to the eye.We purchased this one only because our daughter needed our old one."
389619,2,"Emotional, Powerful, Fizzy","Long a stodgy devotee of baroque music, with the first few notes of this strong stuff I became an addict. Over and over again I play this CD, never quite anticipating the power and emotional bang of the music as it plays - even though I know the notes by now. If you ever studied Walter Piston's ""harmony"" the structures and transitions are back-of-the-book stuff, but the push is all elemental, basic, built-in, the familiar 1-4-5 with musical sequins, trampolines, backflips, and gelginite. Wow. And then some.I'm so besotted, I had a couple of 13-year old boys (my son and a friend) listen to it in the car one day. They were bug-eyed after a couple of cuts, and not with horror. Now they ask for it, and yell with glee when the musical tension breaks over their heads in crashing chords.Can I add a few more stars?"
389630,2,Helpful book for people who are hurting,"This warmherated, uplifting book offers God's comfort and hope to anyone experiencing grief. Pastors and others will fid this a useful tool to put in the hands of sufferers, all of whom need help in realizing that healing does take time."
389634,2,"AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME! DON""T LET THE BAD REVIEWS FOOL YOU!!!!","Alison Krauss is a beautiful singer and I love when her and Union Station get together and make another unforgettable album - such as this one.I love this album so much because I feel that a lot of these songs tell about her life and my favorite song is Wouldn't Be So Bad - though all of the songs on this album are amazing! Anyway, do not listen to the bad reviews - buy this and you'll thank me! This to me is just another wonderful Alison-packed adventure and you will love it!!!!!!!! This is worth the money!!!! GOOD JOB, ALISON! AND YOU TOO, UNION STATION!!!"
389659,2,Worth every penny!,"I used this tool to replumb 80% of my house. It was easy to use, requiring light to moderate effort to achieve perfect results every time. I usually started the crimp with two hands, since the handles were farther apart, but I could finish with one hand as the clamp cinched down. As opposed to the PEX crimp rings, which need to be checked with a gage, this tool is right every time. No leaks with over 150 fittings in my house!One thing to note, these crimpers need to be held perpendicular to the tubing, which makes it difficult to use in very confined spaces. However, I found that preassembly of the pieces was much easier anyway, then I just stuck them up in the joists ready to go. PEX is cool that way.One note, it is worth buying the crimp ring ""buster"", a pair of cutting pliers to get the stainless rings off. They're cheap, and if you happen to crimp the wrong tube at the wrong time, they save a ton of hassle getting the rings off...let me tell you."
389662,2,just a really fun album!,This relatively unknown title is a truelly a great JAM session. Pick this one up and enjoy some Basie in a trully unique/relaxed setting. This CD swings so hard you will not be able to sit still when listening to it. I've had this CD for several years now and still enjoy it immensely each time I listen to it. ...seems to be one of 12-20 jazz CDs that ALWAYS gets packed up when going on a trip
389687,2,Perfect analysis,"Wellock's book is a thoroughly readable book on the social history of nuclear power in California. His approach is to focus on the social critique of nuclear power instead of the usual managerial and economic post-mortems of nuclear power in the US. California is an extremely interesting case, because there was good reason for nuclear power in a state with breakneck growth and little coal reserves. The policies that grew out of California's anti-nuclear movement ended up changing the face of energy policy for the country as a whole (California keeps its status as a political bellwether for the rest of the US).Amazing that a book about nuclear power can be so arresting - I read it while in the British Virgin Islands - surely a place with better things to do, right?"
389691,2,Perfect heater for my son's bedroom,"We needed a small, safe heater for our young son's bedroom and this heater has turned out to be perfect. The heater stays cool to the touch when it is on and puts out A LOT of heat. Wonderful product."
389726,2,Blessed Are the Pure in Heart,"""Jimmy is the latest work of Robert Whitlow and perhaps the best. It is the fresh inspiring look into the life of a mentally challenged fourteen year old boy who is coming of age in a small southern town, a town where families go to church together on Sunday and on Friday nights in the fall, turn out for the high school football game. The faith and heart of this ""special"" boy enrich the lives of all those who love him. It is the challenges he faces and the courage with which he meets them that will have you cheering, holding your breath and even crying. You will never forget Jimmy and your life too, will be better for knowing him."
389777,2,New Testament,Using this book for a New Testament Survey class and it is an excellent resourse supplemented by the teaching of the instructor.CD attached makes for study time while I commute convenient with no need to haul textbook as I travel.
389805,2,PD + Rescue Saved my life.,"I somehow accidentally erased years of irreplaceable dj mixes from my computer. I was able to pull all of it off my ipod including the playlists back into my computer. This software works very simply and easily. I'm not in the least techy. If you own an ipod, you'd be foolish not to own this software. Absolutely essential software. I use this on a Mac."
389879,2,Almost too sparse,"While I loved the sequel to this album, I thought this one was almost too simple to be interesting. Bill's incredible piano playing is showcased much more in the second album. The same goes for Tony's great voice. I am a big Bennet fan so will enjoy this cd, but if I had to choose between the two of them I would definitely go with the second one."
389880,2,Solid controller but a bit too large,"This is the original controller that comes with the original MicroSoft XBox console. It is a high-quality piece and has not failed me. But it is a bit too big, even for my clownish large American hands, and the black and white buttons are not placed very well. The S-controller is better. But still this is a good controller."
389903,2,Excellent new group,"Classified in the ""Alt-country"" genre, this group are exceptional songwriters and musicians. My first couple of listens didn't produce any ""wow"" moments but I just couldn't get a couple of songs out of my head. Actually, it was a couple of lyrics that caught me. By my fourth listen, I realized what a smart group this is. Catchy lyrics and solid melody, gritty yet tight. There's a pop flavour and a rootsy feel to it. The complete ""power pop"" package I say."
389935,2,A must see for disco fans out there!,This movie was hilarious! Great music (though not original artists)! Filmed in Singapore. Well acted. A must see for disco fans! Relive Saturday Night Fever!
389982,2,very useful lids,"These lids make it a whole lot easier for my family to know which jars they can use. Especially with refrigerator pickles as I can with the regular 2 part lids and once it is opened use these white plastic ones. That way the kids don't end up opening 4 jars of the same and saying ""but I thought it was opened already""!"
390062,2,Shear fright!,"Being a longtime horror fan, it surprises me that I just got around to watching this film the other night. It is alot better than I thought it would be. It is a genuinely creepy sequel to the original - I never knew how the two coincided, but upon finding out I was pleasently shocked.Recently, before I sat down to watch it, the film came up in two seperate conversations with two friends that do not know each other. They both metioned the nurse's demise by the shears. I thought, ""I need to see this film"", and looked for it used in a second hand store...Bingo!I personally think this is a good solid film. Great acting by George C. Scott(always like his acting), Brad Dourif is just insane! Vivica Lindfors is creepy, and don't forget the cameos: Samuel L.Jackson, Patrick Ewing and Fabio.Creepy, atmospheric, and a good audio trip, too. I highly recommend this thriller to all those who have not experienced it before. Heed not the naysayers!"
390105,2,One of most helpful book in dealing with everyday situations,I bought this book last year and has really helped me in alot of ways like realising how blessed I am and that everyone is unique and special in their own different ways. I highly recommend this book. It's my second bible.
390236,2,Better than any other mmorpg,"World of Warcraft is one of the best i have ever saw,since Burning Crusade is out,here are a few tips for WOW.1.if u play as the undead,good for you,the missions are easy2.your friends will help you,even if being overwhelmed3.don't fight anyone higher than your level4.a party can mostly beat high level monsters5.raids will help overcome most dungeons6.Dwarves are the best for power7.horde players can be attacked if they decide to hurt an alliance player8.the RP server is the best for anyone who wants to try9.hunters are the best for long range,even they have pets10.there are most enemies that have useful items,not one corpse unlooted!i hope these tips are useful,anyway WOW is the best rpg in the world!"
390243,2,excellent book,"This book is an excellent refernce book. It helps you from beginning to end with almost any senerio.I highly recommend this book, Full of knowledge,references, and details. A very good book on construction management, building construction, estimatimg, contracts,and helpful cost information. One of the best on my list."
390277,2,At last somenthing that makes sense!,"With this new book the author has given to Isshinryu a new and more advance approach. The techniques in the book are not based on the traditional ""block, punch and kick"". Instead of describing the bunkai as ""everything is pressure points"", the author analyze the techniques from the perspective of locks, Chin Na, White Crane, Kuiai Jiao and others. The author also give another surprising theory about the Isshinryu patch, presenting proof of its origins. The book is a must for the advance Isshinryu martial art."
390346,2,This Is An Important Book,"I have long been fascinated with the way in which gay men ""buy into"" straight thinking; to wit, that anything less than ""masculine"" is not to be desired. I mean, how many personal ads do you see where the guy is looking for a ""fem"" guy? Bergling has taken the whole discussion of preconceived gender roles and given it a personal face with the reporting of what real people think. I found the book very helpful in that regard and can only hope it stirs the thinking of those who think that anything ""fem"" is to be avoided at best and derided at worst. Read this book!The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because I wanted more; it ended too soon."
390377,2,Great movie!,I think Sandra Dee is the best Gidget. The movie is cute and well worth the price. Good for watching on one of those rainy days when you're cozy at home and want a lighthearted movie to watch.
390450,2,Professional and expert guidance!,"The information in this book is slightly hard to read, due to technical language, however, the content is thorough and very useful for the new aquarist. Covers only the essentials for tank set-up, but gives thoroughly detailed information about the different aspects of fish keeping. The authors have a genuine care for fish, and this is reflected in their writing of fish keeping standards. Very professional/practical advice."
390452,2,Delicious English-style tea,"Haven't found a better English-style tea in the USA. I brew one cup at a time usually, and then add a splash of milk and some table sugar. So flavorful and comforting."
390486,2,One of my all time favorite!,"This is the best comedy, romance if seen. All of the characters played their parts the chemistry amoung the actors is great! Kept me interested the whole series."
390513,2,I loved it.,"As a man who loves all things SF, this book captures with tactician skill the nuances of post WWII SF youth/outlaw culture. Quick, go go read as well. Reminds me of Fante if that works for you. Highly recommended."
390529,2,Great value.... And quiet!,Just replaced a Krups burr grinder that was noisy and messy. This unit is such a pleasure and will grind as fine as you want and makes so much less noise. Easy to change the grind level and it shuts off automagically.
390587,2,"Fantastic, but not for pounding out code in a week.","This is one of the best books available for those folks who want to comprehend VB.NET.Like 'a reader' says, there *is* a lot of blah blah, but I think the explanations are fantastic. I personally think this book is geared less toward current programmer who needs to pound out code tomorrow for the boss and more towards curious bystander with a programming background who wants to understand the inner workings of VB.NET and how it differs from VB 6 and why.I think it's a very well put together book, with the in-depth discussions of exactly why and how that every GREAT programmer should know."
390654,2,Mom Bracelet,I bought this bracelet for my mother-in-law's birthday. She loves it and thinks it's nice how it just says mom over and over. It's surprising quality for the price and sure to make any mom happy.
390678,2,Hideo Kojima has done it again!!!,"Like George Lucas and Star Wars: A New Hope, Metal Gear Solid 2 is Hideo Kojima's masterpiece. This is the best of the series. The graphics are fantastic, the characters just plain rule, and the gameplay is styled much like Winback for N64, only with better controls. Also, the music is way better than the first one. The introduction will blow you away, as of the story. However, there are a few minor, but one major, flaws. One: Raiden. While not a bad character, I was hoping to play as Solid Snake once again. Two: The story. At the beginning, it makes sense, but towards the end, it sounds way too much like The Matrix! Other than that, it shouldn't stop you from playing this. Of course, you'll have to play or read the previous Metal Gears to get a firm understanding of this amazing series."
390685,2,Get the Hang of it and IT KICKS A**,"If you like a good action movie: Armageddon, The Rock, etc., then you will love this game. Not only do get to sit and watch a good action movie (you can skip pass the animation sequences if you want), but you get to fight in the movie as well. Once you can master the gameplay and it becomes comfortable for you to move around and fight people, this game is great. It takes an hour or so to really get the hang of it, but once you do, the different camera angles, weapons, stealth methods, and enemies makes this game well worth the buy. I never played the first Metal Gear (what cave was I living in?) but from this game being my first Solid Snake experience, I would say definitely buy it."
390724,2,"LOVE THE DVDS, NOT THE CASE","Obviously, the actual dvds are great. Season 2 is very good. I definately love it... 5 stars. The reason why I rate it 4 stars is because of the plastic case that the dvd's come in. Mine are always ripping and cracking. It looks pretty tacky when I keep having to tape up the sides. Getting the $200 set would be worth it if you dont have any of the seasons already."
390752,2,Monster trucks,"My nephew loves monster trucks and he is only two. They are a little smaller than I hoped, but still safe for him. Hotwheeles are usually pretty durable, so I think this is a pretty good product."
390791,2,Deserves wider readership,"On the Rails is about Linda Niemann's paradoxical life. A PhD in English, she turns to the railroad for a career. A tough strong woman, she openly shares her battles with alcohol, an unsupportive mother and an up-and-down love life. Her prose does credit to her scholarly degree. She evokes the life clearly, even brutally. You can almost smell the fresh tomatoes at the depot in California.Niemann tells the story of a bygone era, when railroading was a craft and ""rails"" lived hard. It's the story of anyone whose career gets in their blood and becomes a life. As a career coach, I recommend this book for symbolism and lyricism but also for thenotion of choices made and roads taken. You'll remember Linda for a long time."
390812,2,Great Seat for the price!!,This seat was a life saver. The stock seats that come with most bikes are absolutely horrible. This seat is a great solution to those who want something more comfortable but don't want to shell out a lot of money. I was a little hesitant what it would look like especially for the price. Once I got it and installed (which was very easy) I couldn't believe I didn't do this earlier.The only thing from making it perfect was the fact that it could be a little softer. Other than that it is a huge improvement over the standard seat that comes with most bikes.
390879,2,hilarious!,I own The 'Burbs and must say that I have almost every line memorized! It is a very fun movie and I highly recommend it. Bruce Dern is fantastic in it. Don't expect an oscar winning movie but just watch it and have fun!
390965,2,Previous reviews appear to be fake,"The previous two reviews by ""Dr. Joda Jung"" and ""Dr. Harrison Jung"" appear to be fakes. What they write has nothing at all to do with the content and topic of this book or its authors."
390983,2,Doctor Who,The fourth Doctor. Interesting series of episodes. The Doctors companion adds to the plot. The story has good flow and imagery. The dialog adds to the story. Supporting characters complement the theme. Good technical support for the time period of the videos. Continues the original Doctor tradition.
390995,2,this game is fun but really hard to get threw,when i first got this game i played it alot-but since its hard to get threw it i've stoped playing it for a while.
391016,2,Impressive debut,"Get this album Young World: The Future. Lil Zane is the man. He's young, talented and has excellent rhymes. I think Zane is definitely underated. He's like in the top 10 best artists out there. This album has all different music. Some is fast, other tracks are slow, and some are medium. There not all the same. Hot tracks on this album are Callin me, What must I do, None Tonight, and Whats Up. Some people say Zane is the future 2-pac. Take my words and buy this album. Why else would you be reading this."
391041,2,Gunga Din,"Lot has been taken out from the one on TV I saw some years ago with R. Kipling on a train in opening of movie. In any event, some parts (a very few) a tad dark, but I expect that in older movies in B&W.; Marvelous acting by all. Wish we could get some action new movies like this classic with good performances and a great story line. Recommend.Cecy Ivie"
391194,2,"...singable, pleasant, up-lifting...","I must admit that I bought this CD with the intent of copying one or two tracks off of it and then returning it to the music store for a full refund, as is the trend these days with so many people who are tired of paying full price for a CD that only has one or two good songs on it. Well, I decided to keep it because the CD has about 6 or 7 really good songs on it. The only problem I had with it was that Peter doesn't hit the high vocal ranges that he has in the past which make his sound so unique. But the quality of the songwriting and production makes this a good buy. Definitely one of his better solo releases..."
391267,2,Tying Up The Loose Ends,"What a great sequel to a great original. Underworld - Evolution picks up, literally, right where Underworld left off. Wonder what happened to the rest of the Coven? How about Michael? Still a little fuzzy on how the whole thing began? Can't get enough Kate Beckinsale?Well that is all right here my friend. Every thing you want to know and see. Beckinsale is wonderful yet again and Scott Speedman continues his strong performance.You definately need both movies as they truly compliment (and feed - no pun intended) off of each other."
391302,2,ahahaha,"track #2 reminds me of transformers, no??i love this CD, and I don't mind the repetitive beats only b/c its more modern than others as badmarsh and shri/ dancing drums."
391461,2,Old Style is so Good,"This CD made me all warm inside. It's so real and the music is pure energy. It reminded of Sundays at abuela's house, you know, those classic Latin tunes coming through the AM radio. This is definitely some classic sounding Stuff"
391472,2,Scandinavian folk-rock at it best,"Haunting lyric driven by an almost Medieval beat that brakes into something more modern. It is a good balance, and comparison to world music from North Africa, Tuareg rock specifically."
391484,2,Still quality after all these years,"Back in 1963, my parents bought a K45 stand mixer, and it got used a lot. I mean a whole lot, it was used to make 5 loaves of bread a week, cookies, pancakes, mashed potatoes, anything that needed mixing went into that mixer. The can opener attachment opened every can in the house for over 20 years. About a year ago, while moving, I dropped it and broke it. 40 years of mixing, and its loss was not due to wear. I was surprised to discover that the replacement I bought was just as heavy as the old one. It is clear that they didn't skimp on materials and I expect this mixer to last another 40 years of heavy use."
391606,2,Fascinating for my sons,"We ordered ants and had this sitting on the breakfast table, where every morning my boys would look to see what progress the ants made. They (and I) enjoyed it. Too bad ants only live a month or so, but it's not the fault of this ant farm."
391683,2,It's beautiful...,"His voice is amazing, velvety smooth, mesmerizing. The songs are beautiful, and the orchestra wonderful. What more can you say? Why nickpick...it's a wonderful album. Period."
391716,2,Simple Install. Reliable product. Recommend to everyone!,"Installation was very easy. 3 screws and it was up and running.The transmitter was a little larger than I expected. Rather than using the double-sided tape to hide it in my existing doorbell cover, I cut a small hole in my drywall and placed the transmitter in the wall behind my existing doorbell.Volume is great! I use the highest setting and it is almost too loud.There is a short delay from the chime of my existing doorbell and the chime of the extender. Nothing too long, but something to note.I would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs a doorbell chime and isn't prepared to run wires from their existing chime."
391734,2,A Must Read for Everyone!,"I just finished reading ""Life Without Daddy"" and it is an excellent read. It made me examine my relationship with my father, my step father and my children's fathers. The author did a great job in making the characters real people that we can all identify with. The book evoked emotion. I was on the plane reading the book and at parts I could not control the tears of sadness and the tears of joy that I experienced through the characters. The author really put me in touch with the importance of the role that the ""Daddy"" plays in the family and in society and how fragile that role is today. This is a must read book, We should thank Ms. Grady for providing us insight on how we can all play a role in strengthening our family structure."
391783,2,one more oater,"lots of potential, good view of two greats, but a third great, John Ford, would have ""kicked it up a notch""."
391787,2,awesome cd,"i've been a fan for a few years now and this cd is what really got them on the map. do yourself a favor though - go see a live show, b/c thats what dashboard is all about!try and find an authentic one if poss. though, all the teenie boppers have started coming to chris' shows since he got all the mtv publicity :-("
391815,2,Excellent Recording,"SF Symophony has let out yet another excellent recording in their Mahler Cycle. Michael Tilson Thomas gives a genius interpretaion, and this CD defies all the claims that the live perfomance of the Symphony in September 2002 was a struggle.The orchestra members add color and splendor; Trumpeter Glenn Fitchhtal offers a superb posthorn solo, and trombonist Mark Lawrnece plays the solo in the first movement with fluency and determination. Michelle de Young also adds a mystical and awing sensation to the recording. Also on the CD is Kindertotenleider, and MTT along with the SFS and Michelle de Young, show that they are indeed some of the foremost Mahler interpreters."
391823,2,A great gift for a fishing lover,Bought this as a gift and our friend really loved it. Its a great gift for the fish lover and ships super quick
391830,2,Very Comfortable Boxer Briefs,"These boxer briefs are very comfortable. They provide good all-day support and prevent chafing. The type of fabric and overall cut make up for the lack of a pouch design, which seems increasingly common these days. The fabric is quick drying as advertised.So far they are durable also. The still appear and feel new after several wear and wash cycles.I have also triedExOfficio Men's Give-N-Go Brief. I like these boxer briefs better, because this style seems more modern and addresses some of the issues I had with those ExOfficio briefs.Overall, I'd highly recommend these boxer briefs, even considering the price, because of the comfort, quick drying feature, and durability. They do have ""special"" care instructions in that they should be washed cold and then either air dried or dried on low. They dry very quickly after being washed, so I wouldn't even bother with trying to put them in the dryer."
392024,2,LOVED THIS SHOW,I USE TO LOVE THIS SHOW AS A KID SO BOUGHT IT AND ME AND MY LITTLE GIRL WATCHED IT SELLER WAS GREAT SHIPED FAST AND EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED
392062,2,Wow!,"This is a very nice, well made product. It is also a steal at $25. You will have to get bolts or screws to install this, which will cost less than $5."
392110,2,A Brilliant book for Beginners,"You can find things in this book quicker than you can read the title. I had used Linux for a year and bought a set of FreeBSD CDs (just the CDs, no support etc.) I bought this book and I'm really pleased. However, the CD is slightly out of date, FreeBSD was up to release 4.5 but the CD provided was 4.4. (April 2002) Minor problem that will probably always happen. If you have any interest in computers, you'll find yourself dipping in for a read every now and then. You don't have to read it in order, it's good to just read whatever chapter takes your fancy. Everything is explained, but it is never condescending. The index is good, the writing style is excellent. The author has done an excellent job in producing a very useful book for any newcomer to FreeBSD. Buy it."
392132,2,great value,This spinning combo is a good combination of form and function; i.e. it performs as well as it looks.
392139,2,Model numbers available for $2 more below.,I needed a replacement cord for my Norelco 4821 XL and clicked one of the links to a store below (shaver prophets?). They are probably selling the same cord for two dollars more but they do list the model numbers their cord fits.
392223,2,A Beautiful Simple Introduction,"The beautifully illustrated small booklette in French is a collection a few dozen wise sayings from Norse epics. Each saying is present on one page with an opposing full color page of an appropriately themed ancient stone & wood etchings or monkish manuscript. What is so delightful, is that the difficult-to-appreciate stone etchings have been carefully chalked and colored so that it is powerfully moving.This is more of an eye-opening ""sampler"", rather than an in-depth look at the topic of ancient Scandavian thought. Hopefully, it will encourage further study."
392304,2,Will not shut off automatically - a good thing,"While I definitely understand the safety concerns behind heating pads that feature an auto-shutoff feature, there are plenty of times that it proves to be incredibly annoying. When I'm using this heating pad, I often find myself in a deep state of relaxation. And having to fiddle with a switch every so often just breaks my immersion in that state. So the lack of of this feature, along with the size and years of faithful service, allow me to wholeheartedly recommend this heating pad."
392342,2,valuable insights and uncommon sense,"Powered by Honda is filled with valuable insights and uncommon sense. It is an excellent resource for managers who want to achieve world-class performance in their own organizations. Richard J. Schonberger, author of Building a Chain of Customers and World Class Manufacturing - The Next Decade"
392344,2,"Overall, a good cd","This is a pretty good cd with a wide variety of music. The ""Goldrush Suite"" is fun to listen to, as is the Phil Woods excerpt. ""American Sketches"" is played fine, and is written to represent the ethnic background of each of the players. The whole composition of the piece could use a little more sparkle, but the players do it justice. Overall, a good cd, well played, though not outstanding."
392387,2,Excellent Wax--- it puts the Mouse in Moustache!,Excellent product would recommend to anyone trying to take command of the style of their moustache!
392503,2,Best book in the series......wonderful!,"Ms. Quinn's writing has improved with each book, TO SIR PHILLIP, WITH LOVE has more emotions and depth than any of her other books. This book touches your heart, it isn't one of the light fluffy marshmallow reads most of her readers expect.Phillip's walk into the sunlight with Eloise is not to be missed. Ms. Quinn relieves some of the seriousness with Phillip's two mischievous twins and of course, a visit from Eloise's family will give readers a laugh."
392608,2,"Wow, I can't believe I missed this","Gene Eugene was such a fine and wonderful songwriter. It's tragic that he died so young. I love Adam Again and in searching for some of his other work I stumbled across this gem. Windows. What a great song about how God sees through our situations. I mean you really don't find artists writing like this now days. Brendon Heath with Give Me Your Eyes comes close in the concept, but it's hard to capture how God sees through our brokenness the way that Gene does. The whole album is good. I played it through twice today, and I'm getting ready to play it again."
392680,2,Awesome,"Great mouse, comfortably holds your hand, super smooth with or without a pad, and a nice bonus of being able to magnify literally anything added into the software (that's what the red button is for), all though you don't NEED the software, your computer should automatically recognize it as a normal mouse."
392864,2,"Great piece of gear, lots of capabilities","This is a great piece of gear. It uses asynchronous USB transfer mode and independent re-clocking circuit for the best possible DAC audio performance. I use it primarily as a USB sound card/DAC and headphone amp. It drives headphones up to 600 Ohm without any issues. The only thing I wish for is a bit more volume headroom in the headphone output. My 600 Ohm headphones only get to a moderate volume with the headphone output set to maximum. But in all, I really don't have much to complain about."
392913,2,Horseman's Vet Encyclopedia,"I found this to be a good reference. It is one of the most updated, has a lot of good pictures and illustrations. The price is right."
392973,2,Basic super hero set,For the price paid I didn't expect to much. The outfits are for kids in the range from 2.5-5. The fabric is pretty flimsy but has help up so far. My son enjoys putting these on and pretending to be a super hero so from that stand point the purchase was a success. They are very basic outfits but fit the bill.
393005,2,Review of Dr. Dunbar's Puppy Training Book,"The beginning was rather repetitive and kind of useless, but after a couple of chapters the segments on house training, general training, and bite inhibition were quite useful. Personally I thought the puppy party idea was ridiculous, but we hosted a few parties (graduation, retirement, and just a get together) at our house before our puppies were 9 weeks old and now they are great with kids and people in general. Definitely take his advice on having them meet lots and lots of people. His tricks on getting them to sit, be calm, and not bark are also good, and I like his no-punishment method. The dogs end up much friendlier. I'd recommend this book to anyone who's thinking about getting a puppy."
393012,2,Classic Artist meets Great Producer,"In true, raw Soul, you can go ""home again"" - if the singer keeps to his roots, has good lyrics, a good studio, a good mix, real musicians playing real instruments in real time. Mr. John Tiven even provides guitar and organ (and wrote some here too).Also on the scene to help make it work are historic names like Don Covay and Dan Penn.The title song sounds every bit as fresh as any *released* material from the '60s or '70s from WP; ""Soul Survivor"" is another cut that could have made-the-cut on any of the early albums.Pickett himself is co-composer on *five* tracks, and there are no tentative fillers, either. Some songs imply that the star is willing to offer painful, confessional reflections, no holds barred - he admits to playing rough with players willing to play dirty.OLdies But Goodies are great - witness Wilson in ""Blues Brothers 2000"" - but what a gift this is to record collectors - and any other fans of gritty, corporeal Soul."
393090,2,Nice Containers,"These are some great little containers. I received all silver one in the mail, and that is the reason I give it a 4 out of 5. I was hoping for some variety but these will work great. I plan on using them as Geocache containers!"
393102,2,Required reading for animators studying figure drawing,"I've added this book to my required book list for Figure Drawing for Animation. Great book, and very helpful to my students. I see a marked improvement in ability within reading just the first chapter."
393103,2,Fithos Lusec Wecos Venosec,"OK. If you're a really fan of Final Fantasy VIII and you should have this in your hand. because it is the ultimate Final Fantasy VII Music ever realesed, Like in the Original Soundtrack Of The Final Fantasy VIII this CD contains some selection of FFVIII OST and transformed it into a awesome Orchestrated version! if you will compare the Framents of Memory in the OST to this CD you will hear the difference between them, the music is played with full violins that make life to this music! when I first heard it I was touched but it's beutiful surroundings.. So if you want to buy a Final Fantasy VIII Music, buy this one and you'll know what I've been saying."
393149,2,Very cute.,"My 2 year old son loves this chair. We bought it for a music festival and for the beach last April. The bag that it goes in ripped out at the seams almost immediately, but it doesn't matter to us. The chair seems to be constructed better than the bag was."
393218,2,Favorite lip balm on market!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"I couldn't find this product locally, used to be able to find it at local Walmart- no longer available. I loved this from the first time I used it, and hate being with out it.It's not waxy or too thick, and I like feeling the menthol on my lips.If there's 1 general lip balm you'd like to have and keep, this IS the 1.Buy it, try it, I'm sure you'll agree,don't leave home with out it."
393220,2,Shastro's Tantric Heart,"I was first exposed to Shastro on Public Radio Broadcasting's Echoes. I immediately went to amazon to order Oasis Nights. This music is so uplifting and diverse. Tantric Heart lives up to its' name ""Music for lovers"" It is more mellow and hypnotic than the faster paced and uplifting Oasis Nights. Though the mood of these two are quite different I love them both. Shastro has shown me he is not only talented but also capable of diverse compositions."
393263,2,Page turner!,"What an awesome book! I couldn't put it down--the first chapter was captivating! This book opened my eyes up to what goes on in the spirit world. There are constant battles over our souls and this book expose the secret to winning the battle. We hold the power and victory once we confess Jesus as Lord and utilize His name and blood. Wow, this was a bible lesson and spiritual awaken all in one book. I'm anxiously awaiting the sequel!"
393278,2,Great Product,"Like the review below, not too small and not too big. Just perfect. I just received it 2 days ago. I haven't even used it yet but I know I will like it. I bought it for an upcoming trip to carry around a digital camera and some souvenirs while shopping. And the wife says a couple of diapers and some wipes. Shipping was prompt too. Would not hesitate recommending it."
393345,2,Great,"I am very happy with this keyboard. The ""G"" keys are great for macros and the media buttons I use now that I have them. No complaints about this keyboard yet."
393530,2,Best bang for the buck I've seen yet,"It may not have a tuner, at all, but honestly when is the last time you actually used the tuner in your TV? Pretty much everyone uses either a cable or sat box these days. Just a few extra minutes of setup time getting the brightness, color, etc. setup and this thing is absolutely stunning.Playing Xbox 360 really shows off the speed of the set as well. Very little to no motion blur, bright colors with great sharpness and saturation. The price just makes the deal that much sweeter."
393555,2,THE Best Way to Get Unbelievably Smooth Skin,"My skin feels like silk and it used to be pretty rough. Using a Buf Puf is 1000x more effective than high priced, wimpy, fleeting ""scrubs"", lasts longer and is easier to travel with. I like the fancy new bath things as much as the next girl, but Buf Puf works better than anything else I have tried.Using it lightly on your hands makes them look years younger. Using a facial Buf Puf has really helped me with acne.If I had to give up everything but soap and 1 other bath product, I would choose my Buf Puf. The Buf Puf Company deserves the Nobel Prize for this one."
393634,2,Study time!,Great book. My one complaint is that it was an older edition and not the same cover (in the one I bought).
393680,2,Wonderful product!,"I've used this on my children and their children! It's wonderful for the skin and hair. Never once did the babies develop cradle cap or skin problems. (And it's great for Mom's face! Very, very gentle.) No harsh fragrance - just a light ""baby"" smell! Love it!"
393793,2,bath boats,"overall, I'm happy with this purchase. The boats seem well made and we like the drying bag them come with."
393795,2,Sea of Cortez,This is a GREAT book especially if you have spent as much time in Baja as I have. The recognizable history is fascinating.
393858,2,"MUST BUY, you will NEVER find a better kosher marshmallow","We've tried them all, thrown away tons, shipped in many, stumbled across many at kosher markets, and we've ALWAYS come up w/ the same opinion....you simply cannot beat Paskesz Marshmallows at all. These are not just kosher, but are soft, yummy, correct texture, and do EXCELLENT over Sukkot campfires! <smile>BUY and you won't be dissapointed, guaranteed. There is no other option (we've tried many times!).Thank you Paskesz!"
393876,2,That song,"I already typed this once.......hmm.....But anyways, that song that plays when Al leaves the movie set and goes through her window is ""Black Balloons"" by the Goo Goo Dolls. The one she lipsings is ""I'm so in love with you"" by al green. :-)"
393889,2,Pull My Chain - Toby Keith,"His CD is one of the funnest CD's I have ever purchased. Almost every lryic seems to have two meanings. It is clever, quick and great to listen to.Not to mention, that country voice that Toby Keith has makes every song somethin' we can listen to for ours. Spice your chili.A++++"
393904,2,Rowenta is THE Best!!,"I LOVE my Rowenta. The company has AMAZING customer service, too and I highly recommend them to anyone. In this day and age when it's tough to find a company that stands behind their products, I am overjoyed by the service and attention from Rowenta!I had taken my Rowenta to a recommended appliance center to replace a simple switch. ""Chadwicks and Hacks"" had my unit for a whole month and RUINED my iron -cracking the casing, staining it with grease and grim and the staff was extremely rude.I called Rowenta to complain about my experience with this appliance center and Rowenta offered to replace my unit because of the hassles caused by the service centre.Rowenta has a customer for life now and I will recommend them to any and every one!!"
393919,2,"A great pot for large quantities, but a commitment","I would +1 all the positives from everyone else who reviewed this pot.For stove-top soup and sauce making, in large quantities. It is easy to clean, even though it doesn't have a ""non-stick"" coating, and the lack of such coating is why it has lasted this long.In reviewing my Amazon orders so I could review this, I see that I've owned most of my hard-anodized Calphalon for ten years. At the same time, I purchased a whole set of T-Fal cookware, which didn't perform as well and also didn't last--all those pieces are gone--evidence that buying quality cookware is a no-brainer.My one caveat is that you must figure out where you're going to keep it and where you're going to clean it before purchasing. Mine ""lives"" on top of my cabinets because it doesn't fit in them, and must be washed in the bathtub because it doesn't fit in the kitchen sink."
393932,2,A fantastic board game!,This game really gets us all thinking--and learning. It's great for the aspiring engineer in your family.
393941,2,Recommendation: YES,"Totally different from your everyday read. At first, your wondering where is the author going with this, but yet she keeps you captivated. As you continue reading it gets better and better. It makes you laugh and it makes you cry. It has all the ingredients of being a best-seller. Highly recommended."
393958,2,Very sweet,This was a beautiful book with a sweet ending. Definitely some beauty in the memories the main character reminisced on and the reader can get hooked.
394000,2,Water for Elephants- A Good Read,"I enjoyed this book as evidenced by the fact that it only took me a few days to read. The characters are engrossing and realistic. It is amazing that Sara was able to write the part of an old man with such realism. When I read a book, I also like to learn well researched real facts. This book did not disappoint in that area. The history is interesting and accurate. The end of the book is satisfying. If you would like to ""get lost"" in a great book, this is a good choice."
394010,2,Very good read,"I thought this book started off a bit slow. It took a while to build up the characters and the story. But when the story does launch, you've become so attached to the characters that anything that happens is so tense and nail biting. It became a real page turner. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who loves a good heartfelt read."
394027,2,Must own this book!,"I absolutely loved this book! I enjoyed the history, the animals and of course Jacob and Marlena. I'm an animal lover and was heartbroken the way some were treated in the book, but, you must realize this can be reality. Trust me justice is served for the animal cruelty. I plan to pull this book out next year and re-read! It's a keeper."
394088,2,CHI?,GoT CHI? itz a good book READ ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITNOW!!!!!
394097,2,Terrific family game,"We have two boys, 9 and 13, and we love to play games together. We have the original TTR & wanted to try this new board. It's a bit different, but just as much fun. It takes us almost 2 hours to get through with 4 people. We play games like Settlers of Catan, 7 Wonders, and Carcasonne. TTR is one of our favorites, though. We all prefer more of the European strategy games to typical games of chance."
394098,2,Family Fun,"There are great, detailed reviews of TTR: Europe here already. I'll just say that our family loves playing this game. Our 7-year-old and 9-year-old beg to play it almost daily (our 5-year-old likes to watch but hasn't quite caught on). It was easy to learn (my 9-year-old and I worked it out through one initial test game) and fun to play. Through keeping track of their own points and using the map, my kids are getting a simple math facts workout when we play, as well as basic knowledge of the names and locations of the European cities represented on the map. Great game. Thumbs up from the two adults and two elementary-aged kids in our home!"
394146,2,Great So Far!,"I just recently purchased this book and am half way through it thus far. It's a very quick and easy read. From what I've read so far, it is going to be very helpful when my baby arrives! I definitely recommend reading it, if nothing else to help you form an educated decision on how you want to approach feedings and sleep with your infant."
394170,2,priceless,"I used this for two infants so far and deem the information accurate and priceless, though I believe everyone should pick and choose what they will apply based on their own lives. Great principles in this book."
394208,2,Great product for the price,"I replaced an older inverter with this one and it is not only smaller, but quieter as well. Easy to install and all in all great value for the dollar."
394245,2,"Superbly written, thoroughly informative, totally engaging","From the Renaissance era down to the mid-19th century, terrestrial and celestial globes were not only instruments of science and education, but works of art and highly prized craftsmanship. In Sphaere Mundi: Early Globes At The Stewart Museum, Montreal, Edward Dahl and Jean-Francois Gauvin successfully collaborate to provide the reader with a history of the Dutch, English, French, Italian, German, and Swedish globes, drawing upon the holdings of the Stewart Museum in Montreal, Canada beginning with their earliest globe, circa 1533. The superbly written, thoroughly informative, totally engaging text is wonderfully enhanced for the reader's pleasure with 120 full color illustrations and charts the developments and changes in more than 300 years of globe making. Sphaere Mundi is ""must"" reading for students of cartography and non-specialist general readers with an interest in the history of science."
394273,2,Bernie's Tune is worth the price of admission alone!,"I am almost fanatic collector of Clare Fischer.The guy is that good!Sure, you can quibble about which is the best Salsa Picante release - but why bother? Get them all! Or be forever sorry when you can't find them anymore."
394328,2,Got to Have a Zune Gear Bag,"Anyone with a Zune would really benefit from having this bag. It is perfect for packing it to carry along WITH it's accessories. It has a 'fitted' place for the Zune itself with other compartments for headphones, and any other necessities you want."
394392,2,Great collection,"I recently watched the movies on DVD and decided to buy the bluray set. It's amazing, has everything you want and more, if you liked the previous versions by this right now!!!"
394395,2,"Unique, Harmonious, Uplifting","Sawyer's view of the world may be a little starry- eyed, but his implementation is flawless. This album should be in everyone's collection. I never leave on a long trip without a copy on tape. The world influence is evident. The pure skill at arrangement in ""I Know"" and ""Spoken Word"" is impressive. The voices virtually double as instruments."
394398,2,Great Bluegrass Instrumentals!,If you love Shania and bluegrass then this is a must have!You won't regret it!
394436,2,Rigorous Study,"An extraordinarily detailed survey of Spinoza's opus, the Ethics. Wolfson leaves no stone unturned in Spinoza's elaborate metaphysical-ethical system. Through an examination of the meaning of substance, attributes, and the modes of substance's expression, Wolfson unearths the principle complexities of Spinoza's system. There are extremely clear accounts of thought and extension, the three orders of knowledge, as well as the role of the will and the affections. This is the perfect companion study for any serious reader of the Ethics."
394509,2,Quiet wheel!,This is a great wheel for both my hamsters. They love it and I love it too because it is SUPER quite! It's also very cute!
394542,2,Great classroom/small room system,"You couldn't want more!! It plays DVD's , CD's allows you to plug in all of your components (projector, laptop, vcr, computer) and everything works and is happy. The volume is JUST loud eneoug for a small (28X25) classroom and the system is small enough not to take up space. I wish I had bought one for myself. I look longingly at it in my classroom and want to do the ""dummy dance"" for passing up the chance to purchase!"
394707,2,At Last!,"I highly recommend this CD to any singer that owns the A Cappella Singer Song Book! I am so happy to have finally found a CD that covers ALL of the songs in this book, even the lesser known! Being a music teacher, I find this CD invaluable! Buy it! Buy it! BUY IT!"
394742,2,Delightful!,"I enjoyed this light reading....very entertaining, uplifting around the Holiday Season! I would recommend it for anyone who has previously enjoyed Debbie Macomber's novels and those who have yet discovered her. I have now read two more of her ""angel"" books and have giggled about the adventures of Shirley, Goodness and Mercy! Just what we all need in this economy....escapism!"
394865,2,Good stand for a decent price,"At first I thought the stand was broken when I initially tried to put it together. The part that telescopes up and down would not move, and I was about to give up and start the hassle of returning, but thankfully, I tried one final time and really put some muscle into it. It was just stuck together and once unstuck, moved freely. The rest of the assembly was easy, and so far, the stand has been great. I don't really need to adjust the height that often, so I can't really comment on the durability of the plastic screws, but it serves me well."
394876,2,Gave me a year and a month :),When I entered the code it gave me an extra year and a month.... What more can be said in a review about this other than I got the extra time on live and it worked! :)
394902,2,wonderful series,I thoroughly enjoy this series. All of the characters work well together.Fun and great story lines. I would recommend to everyone.
394950,2,Amazingly Amazing,This documentary just show you how weak and fragile we are as creatures on earth. It simply show the greatness of the creator. All you need to know is open your eyes wide and listen to your inner voice while watching this extraordinary film.A must for anyone who can see and act on what is seen
394953,2,"I haven't seen it yet, but...",...nobody else has either since it starts tonight on Discovery (the Oprah version)That doesn't stop all the crazy 1 star reviews though!
394999,2,Complete and Factual,I consider this book to be a complete rendering of the events. Its less of a story and more of a blow by blow description of the event.
395119,2,Bentley Layton's Coptic Grammar,"Brilliant. Truly brilliant. This is the ultimate in grammars, the most readable, the most intelligent and insightful grammar I have ever encountered. It is so good it can be read simply for the joy of it and it is adequate at all levels of study. Bentley Layton has produced an enlightened text."
395305,2,Brings back great memories,"My husband and I used to watch this series years ago. John Lithgow is so funny. At such a low price, I couldn't pass up on the deal."
395351,2,Installed easily and worked without errors,Installed easily and worked without errorsDrive connected to it were not detected at boot time (likely the fault of my BIOS) but were easily detected by Windows (XP SP2)
395406,2,Awesome Camera!...,"I just bought this camera for my husband and we both love it. We took over a hundred pictures this weekend at a family event and cannot believe the quality of the pictures. They are so crisp and clear, almost better than in person. We have been searching for a great camera at a good price and we found it with this one. We highly recommed this camera and know you will be happy with your purchase. We do recommend a larger memory stick maybe 64mb or 128mb. The one it comes with can only handle about 8-15 photos. :)"
395443,2,Product is Significantly Overpriced,Google it to find a less expensive version. I just purchased a copy for $12.95.
395473,2,Ok for the price,This camera is ok for the price you are paying. Actually images are good if there is enough light hence good for outside photography. But it is really bad for inside where you don't have enough light. Flash is not so powerful as it is powered by only two AA batteries as compared to other cameras which is powered by 4 AA or company's lithium batteries.But I would say one of the best in the price range.
395556,2,Unusual use,"The Step F1053 Home TrainerI'm short. Working at a standard counter hurts-- my arms, shoulders and back. This item is the right size and width to be able to live under my counter and light enough to kick from counter to counter. I can reach higher on shelves, be comfortable working at counters and at the sink. Works great."
395604,2,He who is the greatest,"to me this book was a interesting book it related not only to the people who wouldn't want to read the book but was told to, to get a grade and also to the people who liked short stories as well.This book had some stories for all ages and races when in certain books their content is only relating to a specific reader."
395637,2,Adorable,"This book was really cute - likeable main character, great locations around Europe, fun inside look at the art world. Jane Lane is someone you can't help but root for, and even if the story is slightly predictable with its bad break-up, nasty boss and reluctant love interest, it's still a great read. Pace has a great knack for telling a story that keeps the reader interested."
395652,2,"Good for storage, but not as good at squeezing","I purchased this to help store dwindling toothpaste tubes and to get as much toothpaste out of the tube as possible. However, I found myself using another tube squeezer in conjunction with this, since this one didn't squeeze nearly as well as I'd hoped. But I found that together, this and a different squeezer created the perfect product (but only when used together, I'm much happier with my OTHER tube squeezer)."
395655,2,Schopenhauer in 90 Minutes by Paul Strathern,"The thinker, Schopenhauer has a series of complex writingswhich underlie academic discussion around the time of Goethe.Schopenhauer felt that the universe would be blind withoutpurpose or the concept of being. The concept of a free willbrings with it misery and suffering as practical consequences.Hope tends to be free of the egoistic side of man. Goethedebated frequently with Schopenhauer. The fact that all colorsare an amalgum of light and dark lay at the foundation ofGoethe's discussions. Schopenhauer believed that the willpermeated everything. In fact, when the will replaces knowledge-the result is obstinacy and ignorance. As an illustration,the author showed that a true impression of someone could begleaned in letter-writing. This work is good, if you are astudent of Schopenhauer ; and, you find the need to integratehis works into a unified whole for interpretive purposes."
395725,2,Knitting Answer Book,Very handy to have around! Half the price than it is at the local store! Take it everywhere when knitting! Love it!
395769,2,EUGE GROOVE,Very good CD. Not Excellent. They are some good smooth cuts. After listening you will begin to realize the cuts sound the same. In his upcoming career he will provide a mature sound. However good cd to buy.
395816,2,Virgin Mary ?? Was no Virgin after Jesus Birth,"The Book was very well written, A lot of Research was done to get the Facts on a long hidden History of How the Roman Catholic Church has twisted & covered up the true story of Jesus & his Mother Miriam aka Mary. once you start to read this book its hard to put down. its a little dragged out in some places. but makes for good reading, Jesus did come from a Royal line through the Royal House of Herod.Its an eye opener for People who are not afraid to think out of the Box !!"
395841,2,Insightful,"So informative, it is an exciting read. I will be using this book as a manual reference. Dutch Sheets writes the best books. He has taught me so much about prayer and faithfulness. It is a simple read, not clogged up with words you have to look up. If you love to pray, then read this book, it will change your perception of prayer."
395843,2,I love them,True to size and so comfy and look great w/jeans w/tee or nice top....great price great buy. I suggest the light tan.
395867,2,Prefect snack,If you are craving sweet and want a healthy alternative this is it....These bars are a staple at our house. I highly recommend giving them a try...
395886,2,smooth and smokey,I like the contrast of the trippy guitars with the driving base and drums. The singer's voice is haunting and full of repressed pain. I like how my mind wanders when I listen to some of the songs. Good driving music. Loss and Sweet Indecision are very strong...........
395902,2,Extremely good read,"This is another great Deaver novel, well worth the time and money! Some unbelievable twists, but that made it interesting."
395924,2,Off the Hook!,This video is totally off the hook! The people in it are 100% real! The things that the hosts get them to do is crazy! I can't believe they would go all out like they do. It is definately worthy to add to any collection.
395925,2,Exceptionally Intriguing,"The Holographic Universe is at times truly spellbinding, offering a number of revolutionary ideas explained in a straightforward manner that a non-scientist can understand and apply to daily life. The central premise -- that the universe is a common creation of humans projecting our ideas and mental images -- is not as startling as it first seems once Talbot explains the basis for his theory. And the really intriguing thing is that the concept draws nearly as heavily from spiritual traditions as it does from scientific principles.For years I have struggled to bring together my intuitive spiritual convictions with my analytical turn of mind and basic common sense. This book goes a long way toward helping me integrate those various approaches to knowledge, without forcing me to discount or deny one or another frame of reference. I highly recommend this and other books by Michael Talbot to anyone who is curious, and open-minded, about the nature of reality."
395933,2,I love this book,I have read it over and over. There is always something that rings true with each reading. It's a keeper.
395950,2,Luxury lemon,"This is the most delicious lemon juice I've ever tasted. It has a fresh, crisp sweetness that other brands lack. A generous squirt of it makes ice water taste almost like lemonade. Or add it to green tea, hot or cold. This is a high-quality product at a reasonable price."
395980,2,"Good book, but....","As mentioned in a previous review, the simulation software is a 5/30 trial, meaning, you can open the trial software only 5 times over a 30 day period.But what may be more significant is that the trial software will not run on a 64 bit computer (even after changing compatibility mode, or starting as an administrator.) At least that has been my experience. All other material (pdf's of plotting aids, radar manuals, screen shots) are accessible.Four stars for lack of compatibility documentation."
395982,2,Aunt Dimity and the Deep Blue Sea,"The books by this author are imaginative, gripping, not scary, all wonderfully different and make excellent bedtime reading! The books maintain interest and there is no violence, overt sexuality or murder in any of the books by Atherton - and, in spite of this, each book is hard to put down!"
396102,2,Walking on Water,Walking on Water by Derrick Jensen is an excellent book for anyone. Whether or not you enjoy school or writing this book is relatable to anyone. It's a fun and interesting book that questions your ideas on writing and life itself. It also questions whether or not the teaching techniques we've all known about are still as useful as they once were. The author Derrick Jensen takes us through his voyage as a different kind of professor who doesn't always follow the rules but reminds us that's it's okay to break the rules sometimes. He also goes over the usual writing techniques that we've all heard before but it does it in a new and unique way that keeps the reader wanting more. Overall it's a motivating book that helps students who are unsure about their writing improve in so many different and innovative ways.
396109,2,Love Japanese Movies,"I wish that I could view your listing at the same time?Great Great Movie!!!I need to buy more, Thanks!!"
396143,2,SPECTACULAR,If you like Deep Forest & Enigma then you won't go far wrong with this beauty. I've just come back from the States and heard one of the tracks off this album in a shop whilst browsing. It caught my attention straight away. Do not miss this..
396165,2,sharing old films,GOT TO APPRECIATE LANA TURNER AND WANTED TO SHARE WITH 2 NYC FRIENDS. GREAT PRICE.
396225,2,Sleep with comfort,"I love my body pillow. It helps with knee pain, hip pain, and lower back pain. I can't sleep at night without it. I have a cover that is machine washable to always keep my pillow clean."
396236,2,Fabulous,"Ever since reading Lionel Shiver's We Need to Talk About Kevin last year, I have been trying to replicate that experience. Karen Novak's Innocence comes the closest yet. Shriver's book (an incredible effort) tells the story of the mother of a Columbine-type school murderer. The intensely troubled relationship between mother and son is at the heart of the book. At the hear of Novak's book is another relationship, this time father and daughter. The relationship is just as intense and troubling as in Shriver's book, but in a slightly different way. It is a long time before we find out how Leslie really feels about her father, that conflict and uncertainty, and the shifting reality as presented in the book, bring together a tragic, but beautiful story of innocence lost."
396255,2,It's a Dog's Life,"We see things from Sally's perspective- the story told with humor and wonderful pictures. My 3 year old granddaughter and I hope Sally goes to a lot more places- the beach, mountains and farm could be just the start."
396303,2,Adequate book for some basics.,The book is OK. The shipping was snail mail but it got here. I purchased my first used land cruiser and it is OK for simple maintenance. Not enough diagrams for the landcruiser but there are tons for the pick ups and 4Runner. If I were more mechanic savvy it would probabely be easier to read.
396305,2,AWESOME!!!!,"I've now been using Mega Tek for about two months and...WOW!!! I've been trying to grow my hair since October and it had only grown about an inch from October until March...since I started using the Mega Tek, it has grown about an inch in only two months! This stuff is AWESOME!!!!"
396317,2,Excellent woodworking finishing tool,"I use this sander in my workshop. I am a grandfather and I have many small projects and craft articles to make for my children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. It makes my job a lot easier.FWP IA"
396353,2,Excellent!!!,"Martyr's Mirror is an excellent history of more than 4,000 martyrs, spanning from the time of Christ through the mid- 17th century. The governments, churches, and doctrines of the Anabaptists, the Protestants, and the Catholics are explained through dialogues and commentary. This inspirational compilation not only contains accounts of actual martyrdom, but also letters from the martyrs as well as background information on the era and location. Contrary to Foxe's Book of Martyrs, Martyr's Mirror does not include acts of willful suicide as martyrdom. To see how the Holy Spirit can give Christians strength to ""not love their lives so much as to shrink from death,"" read it for yourself!"
396360,2,Enjoy it every time I use it,"Easy to use, easy to clean. I do jobs that I would otherwise avoid because it is so EASY. Find it sturdy, reliable, not too heavy. No mess when you use the mixing cylinder. Great for a person living alone. Beating eggs, whipping cream, frothing milk very easy. Takes up very little space."
396460,2,Great for the office!,I purchased the brown and black colors for this style. They are comfortable and look great. The sole is not as thick as it appears in the pictures. They work great for office wear.
396500,2,Mars coat king stripper,Highly recommend this tool to any home groomer. Very useful product to add to grooming gear.
396515,2,I Love this book,"This has to be the best books ever published on game programing and development with VB. I am new to the field of game programing, but not to Visual Basic 6. I thought there wasn't anything left to learn in Visual Basic, but now I know there is much more!"
396518,2,IT'S ALRIGHT FOR A PLATFORMER 7.25 OUT OF 10,"When I played this game I didn't think it sucked, and overall thought of it as an okay platformer. You play as Spiderman and the X-Men and your goal is to defeat some guy who's trying to take over the world and destroy them. The story is incoherent after that unfortunately. The graphics look great for a 2D game and the environments are wonderfully detailed. The character designs and enemy designs are great as well, and have a cartoony feel to them. The gameplay works fine most of the time, and really isn't a hassle. The flaws with this game are the sticky platforming obstacles which are difficult to figure out at times, the story sucks, the enemies are hard to kill sometimes when something is blocks them and the missions feel a little dull and repetitive. I didn't have a bad time playing this game, but it all depends; How much do you like Spiderman and the X-Men to buy this game or play it?"
396521,2,Better than the first!,"I rated the first 4 stars, it was a great start but a bit sluggish in parts that I found myself struggling to stay with the story till it got good again.This book did no such thing to me, it may have gone a lot faster but this book is so well done and exciting. I loved it! If you have the first one and liked it, buy this one, you'll like it more.P.S. people say black and white loses some of the story as apposed to color, this book was originially black and white and I think it makes it better, though not as much definition, the details become more obvious. :-P"
396541,2,One of my favorites,"I found this to be one of the best games that I have ever played. You actually get to be Spiderman. In the last game, you just swung from invisible points in the sky. Now, you actually get to stick to buildings. The physics engine in this game is amazing, although the free fall lacks the realizm of the swinging. Aside from the great gameplay, Bruce Campbell returns as the narrator. He continues shelling out humor like he did in the last game. As for the bosses...Doc Ock was a bit of a challenge. He requires almost constant dodging which is rather difficult with lanky human fingers. There are also a wide variety of challenges besides beating bosses into the pavement. There are random time challenges and a plethora of hidden tokens to collect (excuse the big word, I couldn't resist)."
396570,2,Bandoneon,"I have used Mikrokosmos for practicing the Bandoneon in the past. The results were outstanding. Today I use it for teaching.The intelligence and artistic level of Mikrokosmos makes of it not only a complete progressive method for technique, but it is also highly instructive regarding music composition and interpretation."
396576,2,About a face........,"This is one of the truly great films of all time and the soundtrack of this new edition makes it even more of a treasure. It is full of surprises, but the emotion and sheer triumph on the face of Renee Falconetti will linger in the mind for a long time. I am still as excited about this film as I was when I first saw it ten years ago."
396598,2,strong grip,"The clamp is strong, I need 2 hands to clamp it down. The black little plastic covers at the clamp tips slide off easy. I suppose one could glue them back into place with some glue-epoxy.Just haven't gone through the trouble of doing that, yet.For at home use it works fine, anything fancier and you are in the professional grooming business I suppose. (Like an extendable flex arm which rotates on/from your ceiling around the dog :D)Haven't used it but a few times."
396634,2,Fun,My girls had fun with this video and learning the steps. Great time and fun for keeping the kids busy.
396666,2,Amazon boo boo for the replacement evaporative wick,"Since I live in the middle of nowhere on the Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee, I orderd a replacement evaporative wick so I don't have a crisis when the time to replace happens. The present Amazon product description says a replacment wick #1041 will work, but it only kinda does. One has to use duct tape or glue to remanufacture it to replace what came with the unit. I called the vendor, and the person I spoke with said the proper replacement wick was #1045, which I ordered through the vendor. Then I called Amazon customer service to try correct the error in the present advertising, hopefully to help others avoid my aggrevation. By customer reviews, I see at least one other has had the same aggrevation. Anyway, good luck."
396710,2,Super Stuff,"My eclectus was very leary first about being sprayed but now tolerates this very well. Her feather condition is greatly improved. She is not a plucker, her feathers just looked rough. I will continue to use this product. Very happy with it. No smell, not greasy. Excellent!"
396725,2,"Oh, Fudge! Great Book","I bought the Oh, Fudge! book so I could make real (no marshmallow) fudge for Christmas. I didn't expect so much information on the history of fudge as well. Very interesting.I have only been able to try 3 of the recipes so far but they have all turned out very tasty.I received alot of compliments from friends, relatives and co-workers about the fudge I made for this holiday season."
396784,2,great shampoo!,"Allergroom is the best dog shampoo I have found. I have tried many brands, types, scents, combinations etc. This product smells clean but not too much like chemicals or perfume. It cleans very thoroughly without drying my dog's skin. It really seems to help repel dirt and odors for much longer than any other shampoo. I recommend it to anyone with dogs who love to roll in anything smelly!"
396792,2,Thoroughly enjoyable reading,"If you enjoy history and grew up in the ""City of Champions"", you will enjoy this book. Learn the men behind the many names that you know from streets (Meighan Boulevard, Kyle Avenue, Elliott Avenue, Turrentine Avenue) and schools (Disque Junior High, Mitchell Elementary). Gadsden had some fascinating figures and truly visionary leaders in its early days, and Mike Goodson tells us their stories. Did you know that Gadsden even has a connection to the world-famous Jack Daniel's Distillery? Check it out!"
396820,2,"Comfortable, Excellent Price","I have never owned a pair of Clark's shoes before, so this was a step out especially buying online without trying them on. The price was great so I went for it. I would highly recommend these shoes to everyone. They were not uncomfortable, even the first time I wore them, and look great whether with jeans or dress pants!!"
396844,2,"Pricey, yet effective","This comb is used by professional pet groomers and by people who want their animals to look their best for cat competitions. This comb s somewhat expensive and let me tell you that the quality verifies the expense. This comb softens my cat's hair, removes all the dead hair and loose hair, and they really enjoy the feeling of it in their fur. This comb will be replacing several of my outdated and ineffective combs and a few brushes. Buy with confidence."
396956,2,informative,This is a very informative DVD . I use this in a clinical setting to educate my patients. Anything by NG is always good in my opinion.
397046,2,Great watch for a great bargain,All functions are similar to my last ironman watch which after four years just quit on me. The band is solid and it makes for a great replacement.
397060,2,Great Bag for Travel,Great golf travel bag. Very well padded. Comes with detachable golf shoe bag. Great purchase.
397074,2,"Broad base, offers options","Dobson's book offers new homeschoolers a wealth of ideas and approaches to beginning homeschooling. Drawing on the experiences of actual, real-life homeschoolers, not just her own, she gives people glimpses into the day-to-day life of homeschooling families.It's refreshing to read anecdotes, tips, and ideas from real people all over the country who are educating their children at home. The book offers suggestions, but also gives options and flexibility to those beginning their homeschooling journey.I think the book takes the pressure off homeschoolers who think they need to educate their children the way public institutions do. It gives them the freedom and confidence to explore a variety of ""methods"" to find one that works best for their family situation.And, chances are, if you're like me, your approach will change and evolve with the expansion, growth, and needs of your family! And that is as it should be!"
397083,2,Must have!,"I have received many compliments (especially frm guys) while wearing this fragrance. I have paid much more 4 other products that people don't even notice much less compliment. 4 D price, I had to stock up!"
397120,2,Great Rosin,"I highly recommend this rosin. It rosin doesn't fly everywhere while playing and it adheres to the bow nicely to produce a clear bright sound. I do recommend breaking the rosin in by scratching it with sand paper prior to first use, and only a few swipes are all that is required to properly rosin the bow."
397152,2,Chocolate Chip Cookie is Better Than Nookie? Not for kids!,"I really enjoy this CD, very fun and full of delight. The chocolate song is adorable, but parents beware! There is a phrase that says a ""chocolate chip cookie is better than nookie!"" Now , please! Even though children may not know what nookie means, it still should not be on a CD marketed for children. By all means buy it for yourself! But maybe not for your kids!!!"
397158,2,An inspiring view of the Apollo program,"I have read all of the Apollo astronauts' accounts of their journeys, and this book adds something different. Alan Bean gives a unique view of the United States' greatest adventure. His paintings renewed my excitement for our space program. The narratives that go with the paintings are genuine and speak to every American. This book will inspire young people to be proud of our space achievements--a quality that both the news media and our politicians sorely lack these days. Bean's love of the space program is displayed by the colors and settings of his works. Many times, Bean reminds us that Apollo was an act of all of America, not just the astronauts. From a space enthusiast's point of view, we need more books like this!"
397198,2,Good. Expands Wireless network well.,"Pretty cool the way it uses your existing electrical wiring to extend your wireless network. A few times, i have wished it had an ethernet port on the wireless transceiver unit so i cd also plug in a non-wireless computer. But this item was not built that way, so it's not like I'm getting gypped or anything. Does extend my wireless network really well."
397226,2,"A 1 time decision can change your life, but only if you let it affect everything you do from then on out.","This book is an interesting look at one girl's attempts to grow in her walk with Christ while still facing the realities of highschool. It does a good job painting a realistic view of things, showing the struggles a teen would face as they seek to live for Christ. There are people in Beka's life who are challenging her to mature and grow spiritually. It's a lot of highschool drama with all the ""she likes him but he doesn't like her, but instead likes this one so she hates this one"", etc. It is pretty good in it's spiritual content though - even at one point Beka realizes that one boyfriend hasn't mentioned God at all, while one boyfriend talks about Him every time she sees him."
397286,2,"Great eraser, odd shape.","I'd give this a 4.25 or 4.5, if I could, just because of the strange 'cat-tird-like shape'. Other than that, this eraser is great:Pros:+ strong magnetic in base sticks to my whiteboard very strongly+ erases dry-erase marker from my whiteboard very well -- that's what it's all about+ it's nice that the pads come in stacks of 4 and you just peel a layer off when it's spent+ also, it's nice that you can replace your entire stack with a new refill stack for ~ $2+ construction is good; this eraser is much more robust than your typical styrofoam or felt ones+ rubber grips are nice; it's ergonomic+ sheath does its job perfectly; eraser fits snug, but is easy to remove when neededCons:- Odd, slightly disturbing shape. Looks like a deformed tear drop, or cat poo."
397330,2,Compartive Systems in Criminal Justice,"What a book! First, let me say that my professor finished this book by mid-term (each and every chapter). We wrote two reaction papers each week. Very intense pace.Second, I learned a great deal about foreign systems of criminal justice. My only ""complaint"" is that some of the authors of some of the articles appear to cite/quote someone else who is, in turn, citing a particular source. I also found a couple of errors/omissions in two particular articles. Several of my classmates also commented on the errors/omissions.I loved the class, and the book was a unique learning experience."
397370,2,Works great but pricy,"I have nothing to say except it works. Within a day or two the entire strip is full of mosquitos and other various insects that are attracted to the SkeeterVac (I have the SV 27 which started immediately and has worked great so far). My only issue is that $10 per strip gets expensive when it has to be replaced weekly (there is no more room for insects to get ""stuck""). At almost $20 per tank of propane, $20-$30 for strips and $10 ($20 for 60 days) it is costing me $2+ per day to run the SkeeterVac after the inital $300 investment. I guess that is just the cost of enjoying the summertime in our backyard."
397418,2,Exactly As It Should Be,I didn't know what I was ordering at the time because of the lack of description given by this website. This is the music book containing the notes for the music in Aida. It's set up well and it's easy to play. The music is written in both piano and guitar form.
397527,2,Stout KVMP switch. Works great,"One of the things I like about the ExtremeX series of IOGear KVM switches is their weight. They stay where you put them and when you need to push a button, which isn't too often, the unit stays put. I have hooked up 3 different computers to my 4 port IOGear KVMP and am able to quickly switch from system to system either by typing the shift code on my wireless KB or pressing the appropriate switch on the box. It has always worked. I can recommend this KVMP if you have 3 or 4 systems you want to use with one set of keyboard, mouse, monitor, and peripherals."
397554,2,A modern soundtrack for an old silent film,"In the '90s-00s, Blue Dahlia scored two Buster Keaton movies with modern music (some of it old fashioned, of course). I had the benefit of seeing them perform this track live in a local brew pub to accompany ""Seven Chances."" It was a treat to hear an ""arty"" band take on a more commercial, though still off-beat, task. Whoever is releasing Keaton's movies nowadays should add this soundtrack as an optional audio channel."
397555,2,Under-rated kung fu classic,"I wanted to write this review to defend this under-rated kung fu classic. This film was directed by Liu Chia-Liang, the absolute finest martial arts director ever. While this film is very different than the other in the ""Drunken Master"" series, it is still excellent. While the other films contained a lot of stupid comedy and excellent old-school kung fu, this film is more serious and realistic. The fight scenes contain the same outstanding creativity as does all of Liu Chia-Liang's work, but with this film the fights do not contain the same attack-pause-attack-pause, pre-scripted feel. The fights are fast and frantic. The one bad thing about the film is that there are a relatively small amount of fights. However, if you are a fan of true kung fu, and not the wire-work suggested by the other reviewer, this would be a great film to check out."
397641,2,Very Rare Richard,"This album represents the best audio documentation of LR's most under-reported and most amazing period in his career, with the exception of the '55 to '58 cataclysm: he made very few records from '68 to '70, his most intense ""Comeback"" period, when his voice was never stronger. (This was Comeback #2). Although the title says ""Mad Russian"" in '70, the contents are actually from that venue in 1968 AND from ""The Boston Tea Party"" in 1970. Highlights are ""The Girl Can't Help It"" and ""When The Saints Go Marching In"". Rating is just short of 5 because of the grainy, grimey sound on most of the '68 cuts."
397648,2,Excellent read aloud books for young children,"My son is 5 and was recently in hospital. While we were there, a friend lent us the first 8 books in this series, so we started to read them, two chapters at a time. I read aloud while he rested and within one chapter, he was hooked! We've gone through the first four so far and my son loves them! We'll definitely be buying more in the series."
397672,2,Great Product... If I could only use it!,"I got this coffee maker as a gift and really do love it. But I broke the carafe and can't seem to find a replacement. Thus, no more good coffee! Any suggestions?"
397676,2,Damaged package,"I was very disappointed when my package arrived. The bottle had leaked all in the box, therefore I did not receive the full bottle. It appeared the bottle cap was loosened."
397692,2,Pretty Nice,Very powerful! My only complaint is that it is very easy to turn on and off so if it accidentally bumps against something in your drawer it can turn on without your knowledge. Other than that the vibrator is nice. I'm unsure about the ring but it seems to me that it could be possibly painful to the male if it gets caught on pubic hair or something.
397710,2,"Best Book I've Read, Next to Outlander","This is one of the BEST, most accurate depictions of the Battle of Culloden and the events leading up to the battle that I have read. Ms. Canham has definitely done her research. She uses real-life characters and real-life events, and weaves her heart-wrenching love story into history with a tale that will leave you looking for additional pages at the end of the book. This book is one of the best Scottish historical romances that I've read and definitely rates right up there with Outlander. The only discrepancy that I've found is with the character of ""John MacGillivray"". His actual name was Alexander MacGillivray and he was apparently ever bit as much a hero as Ms. Canham has illustrated in this book. If you are interested in Scotland, the battles and events leading up to Culloden, the sad, tragic tale of the Battle of '76 and the heroic people of Scotland, along with a truly breath-taking romantic love story, then buy this book!"
397757,2,Excellent book that should be read by every young American!!,"This book should be read by every young American. A truly remarkable look at the American society, from education to abortion to drugs, Mr. Bennett's well rounded and conservative approach is a breath of fresh air."
397800,2,it's awesome!,"it's amazing for the price ! i love it,it's good to get one for each kid 'cause they might not agree on the same movie, or just get two , or if it's for yourself it's cool."
397818,2,100%...GUARANTEED!,"I bought Trish's DVD Sept 23rd, and I have to say that it was amazing. Knowing in advance that she has helped produce this, not only gave me a more personal view of her, but yet shows her intelligence even more.Although the DVD did not share with us a lot of stuff we didn't already know about Trish, some things were meant to stay personal. It did, however, give a WONDERFUL insight on her life and career; the road to becoming the woman she is today.A lot of candid footage throughout the DVD was all in all more of a bonus. It not only portrayed Trish's beauty, but her personality; goofy-ness.I strongly suggest any Trish fan buy this DVD. If you are even a major wrestling fan, I think this is a great DVD to see one of the top divas in wrestling."
397835,2,game,this was for my 4 year old little boy. He likes to play but there are some parts I have to help with and a little part in the begining you have to pass before you actually get to play the game.
397864,2,hearing them with new all over again,"This is a spectacular collection of some of Ellis Paul's most wonderful music. Yes, I'm a fan and have been so for many years, but these disks let me hear the songs as if they were new and fall in love with them all over again.Ellis Paul is a fabulous musician and song writer and word-smith. If you're not familiar with his work, this is a great place to start; if you are familiar, you'll enjoy hearing the old (and a few new) songs in new contexts. Seriously, this is a must-have CD."
397877,2,This Game Rocks For Kids,This Game is sssssoooooooo cool and great for kids of all ages plus it has special bonus's for linking up your gameboy advance to your game cube! I love playing it! It's just like the real world only the people are animals!(nott literally!)
397953,2,NASCAR done right!,"I played last years version and was pleased with the progress it was making. This year its 2002 version times 10!Pros: 1. NASCAR is better than ever!2. last years tweaks are fixed3. an improvement in graphics4. outstanding career mode5. so many modes, that it will keep you busy for months!6. the ability to import songs is availableCons: 1. physics take some time to get used to2. first years of career mode are frustrating due to crapiness of car and crewFinal Verdict: A definite buy! as i said earlier, it will keep you busy for months"
398040,2,lefty or righty,i think that the seller should put in the description what color is righty and lefty im righty and i just realized that the pic of the gun i ordered looks like its lefty because their is no mag reles on the right side and theirs is no tiger lock on the right side
398066,2,Great!,"Such a great movie. Fast delivery and great price. Funny, thoughtful and great visuals. One of the best blu rays that I own."
398110,2,6-in 1 PC Card Adapter is great,This 6-in 1 PC Card Adapter is great for older computers with a pc card slot. I don't know why SanDisk is not offering this adapter anymore. I was fortunate enough to find it from an independant supplier who had 1 in stock. Manufacturers shouldn't be so quick to drop certain items from their line. There are still a lot of customers that need these items.
398140,2,Mindless historical fiction fun.,"This movie is a definite renter! I watched it on a dull idle day and found it very enjoyable. If you're in the mood to be entertained for a while without having to think, this movie is a great choice. It tells the tale of a Roman Army that goes into the realm of Northern Britain where this army proceeds to get it's @$$ handed to it by the Picts. The bulk of the movie is the struggle of the few survivors to flee back to Roman controlled territory while being chased by a tireless and uncompromising female Pict tracker. The movie has a surprisingly strong cast for this sort of B-List film. All in all, violent fun."
398189,2,Good buy for the price,"Well, i just received this product in the mail after 16 days of waiting. I bought this product for the price it was available for ($5.99+) from a seller named igonemobile. Music from the earbuds are very clear. I just think that the earbuds are a bit too big, they can only be made to sit in your earlobes, some people like to have it all the way in. The package may say 809, which was originally intended for Samsung SGH-809 but works fine with Samsung Sync A707. Except for the delay in shipping, i don't have any complaints about the product, atleast for now."
398200,2,A Great Book for Beginners,"This is a great book for young children. There is no bad language just good, clean reading. It's funny and amusing and will keep your children laughing."
398257,2,Don't laugh! They work!,"I've heard some people scoff at the idea of wearing ""onion glasses"", but my wife and I each have a pair in the kitchen and they work great for us: no tears, no itchy, red eyes and ""I can't see!"" anymore. I downgrade them by just one star because they could be a little tighter on the face, seeing as how the foam rims are supposed to seal out all fumes. They keep about 90% of them out, though. But all the other old tricks to keep from crying when cutting onions, such as lighting a candle nearby or holding your onions underwater or outdoors--either they don't work for us or are inconvenient. I vote for the onion goggles!"
398279,2,BANGING BOOK !!,"This book was really good, it was like a gansta version of the coldest winter ever.. even dough i don't know why it was called ""BITCH"" the girl had to do what she had to do.. but overall this book was a real page turner from beginning to end.."
398280,2,Can't wait for my sequel to arrive :->,"I loved this book. It's really good. Precious comes from the streets trying to support her and her mom who has a bad drug habbit. Long story short, she tries to make something of/for herself and wants to hook up with someone who can make her Hood Queen. When she meets Nico, they become an item until she finds out he's been playing her, so she sets out for revenge.Without giving too much away, she takes care of him, only to have things blow up in her face down the track when she has tried to put her past behind her. She meets someone better than Nico who she truly loves, but she might have it all taken away from her if Nico has anything to do with it. Precious is street smart and savy and I can't wait to see what happens in the next book, - I'm sure that will be as good."
398319,2,true fans only,"This volume is good for one thing: the rest of season 2. Apparently they knew they were being cancelled and didn't care about season 3 and just tried really hard to blow as much of the budget as possible ( plus the b.j. cummings character is pregnant and that throws off the original dynamic that makes the show hilarious). So, if you are a true fan, buy it, it contains the rest of season 2 which you need and is great. Season 3 can hit the dumpster though."
398358,2,jerdon classic,"Tried them all, this one is the best. Once the stand broke off and I taped it for a year. The bulb went out on one but I still have never found one I liked better. lighting not to dim! Hey you use it every day!"
398400,2,A Must Buy!,"Bravo Aileen Joyce for a brilliant book on one of my favorite talk show hosts! I feel as if you were telling me the story in person! What a wonderful author you are and one that I'll be keeping my eye out for. By the way, any new books on the horizon? Job well done and I recommend this book to everyone!"
398414,2,What's not to like.,"Admittedly I've few favorite writers who're women. Sue Hubble is an exception. I'm facinated by the person she emotes through her writing. This is not just a book of bees. It is instead a narrative of life in tune with the natural world. Sue Hubble is accurate in her observations and true in her depictions. And, I am a beekeeper."
398509,2,Perfect size.,"These are the perfect size ramekins. I prepared a dessert of three different flavors of creme brulee, and these are the perfect size."
398514,2,It actually works and that's a surprise,"With a long history of many failed attempts at IP wireless cams, Linksys creates what others could not; one that works.Configuration with WEP was pretty easy. It's a little temperamental with distance compared to the tolerances of other G devices, but it works. It does not react well to low light levels and tries to compensate via its own gain. If you are using this in a home without AMPLE light, expect a grainy picture.Frame rate is about 20FPS and is annoying. The security feature works. It senses movement and mails a captured video file. With only 4 seconds at the medium setting, the video images were over 500Kb. This is not for a dial-up AOL user.There is a remote viewing option that lets you use their web servers to hit your cam from anywhere. Of course expect to pay about $40 for two years access."
398581,2,poor quality control or wrong part #,"We have an 03 Forest River Wildcat. These covers fit perfectly EXCEPT my husband had to drill out the rivets and turn the lift track around 180 degrees, then they worked fine. He said the quality of these lids and lift track is FAR superior to the factory or standard lids and we expect them to last for years. Based on the description at Amazon and the reviews I ordered the correct lid, so were the lift tracks installed backwards or is this the wrong lid????? hmmmmm"
398602,2,"Solid, if somewhat differnt","In recent years Nanci Griffith's music has been taking some unusual turns. Risks have been taken, and as risks something do they have not always worked out well for her. But those who simply wish for her to repeat the same style over and over on album after album refuse to recognize that sometimes the risks pay off and CLOCK WITHOUT HANDS is such an example.Granted the production here is a little more polished than many long term fans might like, but this does not negate the fact that the songs here generally range from good to very good whether they are Nanci's own (""Traveling Through This Part of You,"" ""Midnight in Missoula"" or the title track) or outside material (""Where Would I Be,"" ""The Ghost Inside of Me"") or collaborations (""Pearl's Eye View""). There are a few missteps (""Shaking Out the Snow"" just doesn't work) but on the whole this is Nanci's finest album since her 1993 tribute to her music heroes OTHER VOICES OTHER ROOMS."

398682,2,MOTOWN 1970s - Vol. 2,"I specifically purchased this CD because the long version of Stoned Love, by the Supremes, is on it, and I had been searching for it for many years! It's my favorite song on the CD. To the person searching for the long version of Stoned Love, you'll find it on this CD."
398717,2,tells it like it is,"some would say bruce who! when it comes to music. But those people that have heard any of his music know what to expect. this is some of his older stuff from the 80's. At times it shows it's age but is still great. Any die hard Willis fans will love it. My fave is jackpot, a fine tune to get go going in the morning. Buy, listen and enjoy."
398797,2,Such a Fun Game,"I got this game on the pretext of getting it for the kids, but really got it because I thought it looked fun. It's been a lot of fun helping the kids through the levels and finding those golden bolts hidden throughout the game. There are only a few things I didn't like about the game, or rather thought was frustrating. Changing weapons is a pain. You have to go to a separate menu to get to your items and weapons. Another thing is that the last few levels are so difficult it was even hard for me to get through and impossible for my kids. Other than those issues, the levels are fun and colorful. The little upgrades, new weapons, and new items make leveling up fun."
398799,2,Still sweet,"Overall I'm happy with this CD. Olivia's still sweet and lovely voice is well suited to traditional Christmas carols. However, her voice is simply too delicate to compete with the London Symphony Orchestra, and she simply shouldn't have attempted Ave Maria, which can really only be conquered by a classically trained operatic singer. (Oh Holy Night is a stretch for her, too.) Otherwise, the CD is fun in a sing-along sort of way, and I remain a loyal fan."
398895,2,Wonderful film!,"This film is so enjoyable to watch. The story is of a girl who is born in a wealthy, famous family who has a curse on them that the first baby girl born will be born with a pig's nose. Christina Ricci plays Penelope, and her performance is flawless. Her character is someone you just root for the entire film, and it is so amazing that her will is so strong and her reactions to her deformity is so different than those of the people around her. I won't say more because I don't want to give too much away! But, I was not sure how I would like this movie, but I loved it. Its insipiring, and not only a fun film to watch, its also so beautiful. The art directing and the camera work are so gorgeous, and the movie has this fantasy/ fairy tale quality, while at the same time feeling modern and present-day. I would highly recommend this movie for its acting from Ricci, and Reece Witherspoon, and James McAvoy, the characters, moral, and sheer entertainment."
398960,2,Excellent book but not quite what i thought it would be,"this book although extremely informative and easy to understand, describes techniques using alot of specialist equipment which is no good to anyone without them"
399005,2,"Convenient, well sized but poor thermal seal","I got this to take on my bike (just barely fits in a Topeak Modula Ex) since I was getting tired of having cold coffee halfway through class. It's a great size and the cap and button system work great. Unfortunately that same button system ruins the thermal insulation and greatly decreases the amount of time coffee stays hot. You can feel the rubber section in the middle start to heat up almost as soon as you fill it. It stays hot long enough for my purposes, but I'd go somewhere else if you're looking to have a hot cup of coffee 8 hours after filling it."
399014,2,My Dog Approves.,This toy is pretty good. bounces well and the dog cant chew through it. If you pull too hard the rope comes out but you can stuff it back in and re-tie it. I might put a newer longer rope thru it when this rope wears out. Or maybe stuff a old sock thru it and tie some knots lol.
399015,2,Finding your mate!,"I read several books on gay dating and how to meet Mr. Right. This one, along with Patrick Prices' ""Husband Hunting Made Easy"" were the best. It has frank, honest commentary about what you need to do to attract Mr. Right. I am happy to say that I have used many ideas from this book, and have found my True Love."
399026,2,A surprisingly mature album,"Ray Davies, who wrote and samg all the songs on this album, was still in his mid-twenties when this album was released, but it has the sound and feel of the music of one at least fifteen years older. In fact, it puts one in mind of some of the wistfully nostalgic albums Davies' contemporaries would make fifteen or twenty years later. But this Miniver Cheevy-like music is not only nostalgic, it's also really good. It stacks up well alongside the several great albums the Kinks made between 1966 and 1971. It's a pity that when the Kinks are mentioned, people can't seem to get by ""You Really Got Me."" There is so much more to the Kinks' work, and this album illustrates that beautifully."
399070,2,The Best House/Dance Comp I ever bought,"I picked up this CD last week because of the strong and interesting track list, and was in for quite a surprise! Usually dance comp CDs are poorly mixed and use versions of the songs that I don't like. This CD was amazing. The first Disk has many familiar funky dance and club hits, and the second disk is a bit deeper without getting boring. The diamond in the rough, however is the immaculate mixing featured on the CD. I have never heard such an outstanding mix compilation. It moves well from track to track, and has some very unique and technically great mixes. I highly recommend this comp to any one who enjoys good house music!"
399079,2,Have to admit I'm impressed.,"Here's another battery-operated scrubber that I didn't hold out much hope for. But I have various jobs where I knew it could be useful if it had enough power, so I took a chance. And I'm heartily glad I did. I've used this for cleaning the hard-to-clean stuff out of casserole dishes -- the stuff the dishwasher only manages to bake in -- the chrome on my faucet, the sink basins, and my smooth-top range.This last job is really what makes me feel that the PKS150D has paid for itself. Anyone who has a smooth-top range will know of the dire warnings you get about what can and cannot be used to clean them. And so we're sometimes left with a stovetop which doesn't always look its best. But the non-stick disk on this scrubber does a fantastic job of cleaning off the hardest to clean spills without scratching the surface. Honestly, if you are tired of scrubbing your cooktop until you think your arm is going to fall off, give this little gem a try."
399088,2,Recommended for environmental studies reading lists,"The Chesapeake: An Environmental Biography by educator and political history expert John Wennersten is the informed story of the Chesapeake Bay (also called the Crown Jewel of Maryland) and the Mid-Atlantic region. From its ice age origins 20,000 years ago to how its modern-day health reflects directly on the health of waters all over the world, The Chesapeake: An Environmental Biography covers all that human science and history have known about this remarkable body of water. Strongly recommended for environmental studies reading lists and reference collections."
399101,2,Great cookbook!,"Very simple, yet delicious recipes. Exactly what you would expect from Mr. Food. We're excited to make many of these dishes!"
399211,2,The Restless Gun,"We purchased The Restless Gun on 6/7/12, three DVD set with 24 episodes. We have until now completed the first disc and part way through the second, we have enjoyed each episode so far with very good storyline, acting with John Payne playing his role so well, and no doubt the quality of the picture and sound, no surprise there as this is what we receive each time with Amazon and Timeless Media Group. For those that like Westerns this is a good quality product."
399234,2,Gorgeous,"Although the islands are ignored, the crisp photography, narrator with a pleasant burr and fine music make this an exceptional entry in the ""Visions of"" collection. Almost equal to ""Over Ireland,"" still the best of the fly-by films."
399317,2,Must-read for African Missionaries!,"This book is an overview of the truths of the Christian faith as seen from the perspective of the traditional African world view. It is insightfully written from a Western perspective and is extremely helpful in understanding the difficulties of relating Christianity to the African's beliefs -- both modern and indiginous. This is a must-read for anyone going into the mission field in Africa, no matter how much theology you've studied or how much you already know about African religions. Great for general knowledge or to look in-depth at specific issues."
399318,2,Musee d'Orsay,"High quality art book that is not intimidating or daunting. It is not a ""reference piece""; it is an enjoyable trip through the museum. Just enought text and detail to let you enjoy/explore/experience each piece of art."
399321,2,Love,"We love this puzzle! It's way cute! The colors are so vibrant and I love the large block style puzzle pieces, they are much more durable!"
399359,2,fun!,These shoes are sexy and comfortable. For sure fun for your special someone. I got them right on time and they were even hotter in person. I think they make legs and feet look better than other HIGH HIGH heels I have bought before.
399364,2,Good tool at a good price.,This is a low end miter saw that works just fine. I like this saw because it is light weight and can be hauled around for smaller jobs. I give this saw 5 stars because in the same price range you are looking at either Ryobi or Firestorm(black and decker).....I would say Hitachi has the better reputation and my experience with the Hitachi brand has been good.As far as the instruction booklet? I only opened it to see that I received all included parts. I only had to install a few items which took 5 minutes. Perhaps the one I got from Lowes was pre-assembled? The 1 star rating seems unfair for that considering the limited tools required and parts included.I can't comment on the table mounts (as others have) since I probably will only use it as a small portable.
399371,2,Absolutely off da hook!,"As usual, Willie Ninja does it again. This man should be deemed the king of house..."
399418,2,Feels pretty good out of the box,"I bought these shoes because I wanted a decent quality shoe, but I also didn't want to pay an enormous sum. I paid $109, whereas the shoes are listed at $175 in the J and M catalogue. I only have to wear this type of shoe once or twice a week. At the same time, I wanted something that would be suitable for meetings with lawyers and courtroom testimony.I've had them for a very short period of time, but I'm pleased with them. They came quickly and were consistent with the advertisements and information about them. Though they are pretty stiff out of the box, they are not uncomfortable, which is a pleasant surprise. And they look great!"
399427,2,night reader,"so far the booklight is great. it is my fourth one. the cables are very sensitive, but it is still the best reading light at night."
399440,2,"Nice, but only covers the divider","I was looking for a mat to go on both sides of the sink and also cover the middle. I did not know a mat was available for just the center, but that is exactly what this is."
399486,2,Good music,"Progessive country with a flare of rock. Each song is enjoyable to listen to. I would recommend this album as a good buy,"
399501,2,Good. As described,"I bought it because the great reviews from other user. I brought it to a trip to Mali, nothing went wrong, views are good. Satisfied with what I got."
399512,2,A must read!,"It is difficult to write a review for a book that is so well written, so unbelievably relevant and important, that makes you feel humble as you try to form a clear concise sentence the way only Wendell Berry can. He is our modern day Mark Twain! Thank you, Mr. Berry, for saying what needs to be said!"
399574,2,Watch out dirt and dust !,"I've seen the commercials, I've read the reviews and got it with my 1-click ! I do mostly all my christmas shopping for the kids on Amazon and decided this year it was time for MY gift.It has been almost a month and so far I can't say anything negative about my purchase. My apartment is small and doesnt require any intense vacuuming and my fascination for gadgets out-weigh anything else. (and any other excuse I can give to have one ) No complaints. My daughter turns it on and we sit back and watch it suck up one area of the room or entire roomSif needed. I even turned the roomba on when I thought there was'nt a need and the darn thing picked up a room full of dust !Yes I'm still very excited about it's capabilities but after a few more months of use I'll be writing another review hopefully about how it still works wonderSMy advice to everyone interested is to GET ONE !!"
399644,2,Concise,"A true classic. Very easy to read, and contains many great speeches within it (including Pericles' funeral oration). More-or-less objective, although does favour the Anthenians (mostly noted through diction). Easy to understand."
399723,2,Awsome Holiday Collection,"Not your usual collection of various artists. I bought it for the Jim Brickman hit, The Gift. I was plesantly surprised by the content of this album and recommend it highly to those who like holiday music performed by contempory artists."
399751,2,Great product,"Bob's Red Hill products are not only a great value, but taste great. I have shared these with friends and they feel the same as I, a wonderful buy."
399762,2,MY BALLS,"MY BALLS WORK REAL WELL, THEY ARE DEFINATELY BETTER THAN ANY OTHER BALLS BECAUSE THEY ARE FASTER AND FEEL LESS FRAGILE AND ARE PROFESSIONAL. I DON'T KNOW, ARE THERE BETTER BALLS THAN MY BALLS?"
399763,2,Superior performance,"These table tennis balls are great. As soon as I tried them you could feel the difference with other brands. It has a nice bounce and last long, and I mean long. Butterfly 3-star balls are perfect for reacreational play as well as for competitive play so if you're a beginner this is what you want to use or if you are a higher level player (intermediate to expert) these balls will get the job done. These balls are worth every cent you spend. It will be the official ball for the 2009 World Championships for one reason; they're superb!"
399768,2,Satisfaction,Enjoy a cup of this each morning. I especially appreciate that Folgers Cappuccino does not have a strong acid aftertaste. I will continue to purchase but wish the price was a bit lower.
399946,2,TVD S1,My only nitpick with the dvd is that there are no commentaries from the cast. I hope they remedy that with S2. I LOVE the show so there's nothing much else to say.
399951,2,What I've Read,I have read that the Season 1 DVD will be released on 8/31/10 & the 2nd season will start early September. No exact date. And I've also read that they are considering making a soundtrack of the show. I'm so hooked on this show.
399966,2,The Nader Reader,"Ralph Nader brought up many important issues in this year's presidential race. Many of these are seen throughout the writings in this book and it is apparent that the problems he talks about are not recent, nor are they going to go away without any massive efforts.Nader's style is a little dry and difficult to read at times, but the points he brings up (especially in the sections on the presidency, democracy, and grassroots organizing) are vital to the progressive movement. His sections on tort reform and law practice are a little more technical and are probably best understood by those in the field.Nader has stood by his convictions from the time he started fighting GM to today. This is an excellent book that traces his numerous crusades throughout the decades and gives a boost to the future."
39,1,"Light reading, light in substance","A clichéd storyline based on the classic Cyrano de Bergerac, this book reads like a rookie novel written by someone who has a knowledge and passion for Italian culture and cuisine, but little experience in developing a story. I can understand Bruno and his passion for cooking, but have no clue as to his passion for Laura. It seems to be primarily based on her being a blonde American. How exotic. Her character is so underdeveloped- we know she's studying art history, and she enjoys Bruno's cooking with a passion. That's about it. And Tomasso, he's just the cliché for any over-sexed Mediterranean male who encounters foreign females.It's a light and entertaining read if you can get beyond all of the reasons you should put it down and walk away. That being said, I will, however, check out this author's more recent novels. He does seem to have a way with technical details, hopefully his storytelling has caught up."
47,1,A Lost Author,"I have read all of the Carpathian novels to date, except one. I very much enjoyed them at first, but nothing EVER gets resolved. You would think that after 16 books something would have been resolved and a new obstacle introduced. As for this book, it is an off-shoot of another Carpathian novel about the Jaguar Line. I was hoping to find out more about this curse, the origins and why the males kill the females. Nothing, not a word about the Jaguar curse. And why do the walls and ceilings change? Ideas introduced and left at that. Ms. Feehan went, once again, off on a tagent. Her books become less and less meaty and more and more expensive. I will NOT be buying any further books by this author. What a shame."
209,1,Still yet to recieve,I am still yet to receive these items that I purchased 4 months ago. I've tried everything to track where they might be but no success!!!
215,1,THIS CD SUCKX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"I WAS LISTENING TO THIS CD AT MY FRIENDS HOUSE, AND IT REALLY SUCKED!!!!! IF SOMEONE IS ITNERESTED IN BUYING THIS, DON'T, IT'S A WATSE OF YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!"
293,1,Small type,"My review centers on only one thing - the type size. This edition is disappointingly and, in my humble opinion, unnecessarily small. Increasing the type size a point or two would move the edition from unreadable to readable and, at most, increase the book length by about a hundred pages. Since it is currently at almost 500 pages, I feel quite certain the binding could accommodate another 100 pages with no problem.What makes it all the more frustrating is that the type itself is a nice clean face that wouldn't require a magnifying glass if it was just a little larger.I really don't believe Our Lord meant for us to suffer eye strain to read His word; nor do I think He wants us to carry around large books when small books with readable type would serve the (His) purpose."
326,1,not worth it,mediocre at best Story line was bad; dry and predictable only action scenes drew interest. they used one liners from previous movies.
411,1,Blu-Ray Review,"What a terrible movie, garbage. It totally sucks. What is Hollywood coming to. It seems they are running out of stories to make movies about. What garbage. Good Lord. Right up there with Boondock Saints 2 and Smokin Aces 2."
525,1,Klaatu Hopeless,"I purchased the original Klaatu album on vinyl in 1976. I love the album as much now on CD as it did then. However ""Hope"" is far too theatrical, with virtually no actual songs on it. If I could give it 0 stars I would."
545,1,Yet another broken headphone jack.,"After roughly a year of fairly reliable use, I've also fallen prey to the faulty headphone jack. Now i'm wondering what to do with an item that I paid nearly $400 because the limited warranty conveniently ran out eight or nine months ago (""limited"" being somewhat of an understatement). No one should ever have to consider ""fixing"", and possibly further marring something they paid that much money for.A month ago I would've given this item four stars. After coming here and seeing so many people with the exact same problem that Creative continues to neglect, I'm outright angry that I'm not alone."
570,1,It does the job,"If you can't hold the cards, this will work but I believe they lost sight of their purpose and are trying to address a problem from outside the box. The idea is to make it easier for the individual. It can be difficult to get the cards in place and then change their positions defeating the fundamental purpose. A block of wood will do better. The card holder shouldn't be a game within a game."
606,1,Terrible movie,"I rented this movie with the highest of expectations due to the things I had heard talked about it, like that it was funny and romantic and had wonderful scenery. What a disappointing story!The story had no sense of direction. It seemed badly glued together, as if the scriptwriters were saying, ""we'll make her a divorced woman...and then we'll make her go on a gay tour...and oh wait, let's make her have no morals and have sex with a man she hasn't known for even one day...and lets make her flirt with the real estate man."" All in all, the story turned out to be pretty stupid with nothing to admire in the main character."
744,1,1984,"1984 over all is a very boring book. Their are parts in the book that catch your attention but just for a while and then it just gets boring again. I don't really like futuristic based books and the book 1984 is a perfect example why. I wouldn't recommend this book to any one, unless your into this type of genre. I give this book 1*."
797,1,"Fahrenheit 451, Burning Up My Brain","I read Fahrenheit 451 this year, in the seventh grade, as a required reading. As I read this book, I got more and more confused. The plot twisted and turned and left me hanging wondering ""wait... what happened?"". Mr. Bradbury used large words that I learned as vocab. I would recommend this book to no one under the age of about 13, maybe 12. I chose this age because of the hard concepts of burning books and the fast-moving plot of the hound."
811,1,Weird Weird Weird Weird!!!!!!,"This book started out weird and ended up wierd and boring! The author has a good idea. We should read instead of watching TV, but if this book is one of the choices you had better turn the TV back on. I mean who in his right mind would ever write a book with 4 wall TVs, robot dogs, and burning books. And the story never really had an ending. It just stopped, I guess to end the boredom. I think the author had to get some sort of deal with all the teachers to assign this book. How else would it get on the required reading list? Maybe he gives 50% of the profits from sales. Please don't buy this book, you are supporting a lunatic."
853,1,Imitation Brand,"They sent an imitation; Holt from china instead of the advertised Halti, and it cut my dog's face! I tried contacting them, but no response."
870,1,ultimately ineffective,"This is the kind of book where you realize early on that the writer isn't talented enough to pull off what she's set out to do. Sad, since I was looking forward to reading this, based on the jacket copy. Oh well. This reviewer recommends that others look elsewhere for a compelling read."
906,1,too small for a newborn,I ordered this bag without any knowledge of how big it was. I wanted to use it for a wkend trip I was taking and was shocked at how small the bag was. I have a 3 month old baby girl and it was way too small for me to carry all of her things in it. I was only able to fit a few diapers and wipes and the other small items. I wasn't even able to fit a change of clothes. I tried putting a change of her clothes in the back pocket but it made it way too bulky. All in all the bag was adorable but way too small for a newborn. I wouldn't recommend this bag to any mother with a newborn baby.
924,1,Emporer's new clothes.,"I'm one of those obsessives who forces himself to finish any book he starts so I plugged away hoping I'd experience the enlightenment all these other reviewers seem to have found...but I just didn't get it. Maybe it lost something in the translation, but I prefer a little dialog in my fiction...even in my heavy, pretentious intellectual and politically correct fiction. I don't mind the magic realism, but I do get bored with sentences that run on for two-plus pages without a period. Oh, well, chalk up the dissent to a libertarian crumudgeon redneck who's educated beyond his intelligence. But I was underwhelmed."
938,1,Kindle-Version of Bantam Classics un-readable,"I was looking for a well-structured side-by side version of the Canterbury Tales. Bantam Classics normally does a great jobs on books, but whoever transcribed it to kindle did not know kindle at all, left it unstructured and the translation all over the place, intermingled with the lines, translating the wrong verses and generally just all over the place.Practically, I am reading four lines middle-english, five lines modern, three lines middle-english, 2 lines modern, 6 lines middle-english, and so forth. There is no connection between the middle-English and its translation.That was a wasted 5.99 USD for kindle version and a HUGE disappointment :( ..."
980,1,bad acting,"This movie had bad acting. The dad is dramactic and corney. The mom is just corney, and all of the soccer coaches are acting like it was big pro sports championship. The olson twins were corny but entertaining to watch. This movie is unrealistic that Emma (ashley) and Sam Mary Kate were on 2 different teams. (It's a rule that siblings be on same sports team) This movie has bad quality actors and a unrealistic plot."
1010,1,Looks & feels like a bootleg product.,"My copy even has an arrow pointer on the front cover picture! Talk about lousy merchandising. No Dolby, much less DTS, only a PCM Stereo recording. Video is average. Like proper packaging and presentation were no more than an afterthought.All in all, this looks like a bootleg edition. And no, it's an official release. Amazing. Messy. What were they thinking?"
1055,1,Don't waste your time on this edition!,"As other reviewers have pointed out, this particular Kindle version is broken: any passages in the original which appeared in italic type have failed to be transcribed, leaving large gaps in the narrative, especially at the beginning.Therefore I rate this edition one star."
1065,1,Not as good as the other album!,"I was excited to get my Steppin' album because I loved the other album of Christy Baron (I thought about you). However, I was a bit disapointed beacause it was so inferior compared to I thought about you. I was expecting more of Christy Baron's sultry renditions of real accoustic jazz but what I got was some sort of a synthesized versions. It's still a good album but it's nothing like the other one. If you can only buy one album of Christy Baron, don't get this one."
1349,1,"Paper jams, bloated driver, shutdowns","To begin, the software installation is a headache. I had trouble installing it even though I work in IT. Why do you need a 40MB - 200MB driver that requires you to turn off your Anti-virus during installation?! The printer jams often and will sometimes shutdown while printing. While I think HP business grade printers are great, this consumer grade printer is junk."
1350,1,"Yes, the paper does not feed correctly!","I am in complete agreement with the rest of you who have had paper feeding problems. The printer was fine at first although difficult to set up (software). Now, a month later, the printer either doesn't take the paper or jams. It has nothing to do with the quality of the paper. I am also surprised that this wasn't discovered in testing. I also noticed that the ink cartridges keep getting smaller. What a rip off. I have had it with HP printers. I will never buy another."
1416,1,Worst.movie.ever.,"Absolute worst movie that I have ever seen, I never write movie reviews but this was so bad and hopelessly boring that I felt obligated to say something......Heres the movie: Guy stumbles around his house mumbling to himself in a dress with a shotgun...treated to a full boyz2men video on a tv...guy stumbles around and sits in a greenhouse mumble mumble...silence and camera focused on a bush for 2 mins...guys drunk friends come to his house guy plays a song 2 guys kiss and lay on eachother in bed...guy makes mac and cheese....guy dies in his greenhouse.....awesome movie....makes me want to watch dude wheres my car"
1418,1,Dissapointed...,"I caught this movie a while ago while it was playing still playing at the theater. I was very saddened by how dissapointing it turned out to be. I'm sorry, Michael Pitt is the wrong choice to play Kurt Cobain (even if this is just inspired after the famous late musician). The trouble is, I don't think anyone could really play Kurt. I suppose there are people in this movie (Kim Gordan of Sonic Youth and the director Gus Van Sant) who actually knew Kurt while he was alive, so they know something I don't obviously. Regardless of the mis-casting, in my opinion, the film is terribly slow and ultimately kind of pointless. We already know how it's going to end (like with ""Elephant"") but the same director asks that he keep our attention spans going till the end to satisfy his obsession with these real life tragic outcomes. I admire Van Sant's lofty goal to create a piece of cinema to attribute to my hero Kurt, but it just falls short in the end."
1421,1,Don't waste your money - buy 3rd edition used.,"The back cover states ""Thoroughly updated for it's Fourth Edition"". Not true. The only difference between this and the 3rd edition is that the three Clinical Problem sets at the back of the 3rd edition (pages 347-383) have been replaced by a set of additional questions called the Maintenance of Certification Primer (pages 345-375). In the first 345 pages there may be a few questions that have changed between the 2 editions but I haven't found one yet - even chapter 7, the Pictorial Atlas, is unchanged. And I suspect the same will be true for the 4 online practice exams. Bottom line - buy the 3rd edition used for about $2 and save yourself $60. Still, this book is ok for FP boards as is Swanson's."
1434,1,Dumping it down the drain,"This product obviously works well for most but it made my twins extremely fussy, gassy, and spit up like crazy. Not only did I hate to see them screaming with discomfort, but it was the hardest day I've had yet as a new mom to twins. Yes, I said ""day."" I took MMP as directed for only one day. The babies fussed all day and night leaving me no time to pump to even see if there was an increase in supply. I cut out the MMP and went back to plain fenugreek the next day and everyone is happy again. I'm pretty sure it's the blessed thistle that caused the issues. I tried previously adding blessed thistle capsules to my supplementation routine and we had similar issues, although not anywhere near the degree as with MMP. I hate leaving a negative review for a product so widely loved and touted, but I didn't find anything about effects similar to my experience so I felt the need to share."
1457,1,Lukewarm at Best,"I saw this in a little theatre in Manhattan, hoping for a more polished, Morrissey-rich experience, but this was a pretty sub-par affair- and frankly it's annoying to see a film this poor with even decent distribution. Terrible camerawork and spotty acting over-all. Bad editing and annoying Cali pop-punk soundtrack, only saved by the presence of Quasi. I was really disappointed- when people put such little effort and inspiration into something, and they get support, one less person with a real vision gets heard. It was occasionally worth a laugh, but overall I found myself angry at the Gods for opening up the Pandora's box of indie films without keeping the hacks out. We have enough of those in Hollywood."
1458,1,Overrated,"The funniest parts of this book are the ones used to get you to buy it, the rest was lame. I found myself yawning. The only good thing about this book is how small it is, the boredom ends in a couple of hours."

1501,1,Crawling under a rock to spare my ears the agony.....,"Ugh! From the fake smile on his CD single to the Barry Manilow-ish album cover, this guy screams superficiality! Sorry, Clay....you might have been second in American Idol II...but you are NOT Barry Manilow! I just have a problem with someone who has to use a tv show to get noticed instead of using their god-given talents and merits to get to superstardom. It smacks in the face of those who have real talent and are struggling to be heard and appreciated by the music industry and the public. So many good singers are passed up because of tripe like this. Please, spend your money wisely and don't buy this CD. Go out and get yourself ULTIMATE BARRY MANILOW or even a good Celine Dion disc instead. At least those folks worked for years to get where they are...and obviously have some talent. Clay, I wish you luck...but I am sure your career will be history in about a year."

1621,1,Laughing Aloud: One Reader's Story of True Hilarity and Boredom-Defying Perusal in the Face of Denali's Silliest Story Ever!,"The more you know about mountaineering, the funnier you'll find this book. There is little to like, but much to laugh at in Ruth Ann's utterly unselfconscious self-portrait.If this were a comic novel it would be a dead-on parody of a certain strain of self-glorifying mountaineering literature. Think Nicholson Baker writing ""Into Thin Air"" from the point of view of Sandy Hill Pittman. And it starts with the twenty-two-word long title!Warning: if you're not in the mood to laugh, be prepared to be annoyed!"

1662,1,A Boring with a German Soldier,"Although at first glance the book seems to have a good plot, it does not. I didn't like the character of Patty, she seemed so pathetic and she whined too much. The relationship between Patty and Anton is very disturbing, becuase Patty is weird about how she reactes when she is around Anton. The book disturbed me."
1666,1,Bad quality zipper,"We outgrew our 8x8 tents with the kids, so we bought this tent preparing for our next camp trip. We test it out at our back yard right after we bought it. It's easy to set up, and roommy. However, the zippers are done in very low end quality. The window zippers work ok, but both the door zipper did not work well! The mesh zipper will open up after you zipped it. The door zipper is not well stiched on one side! And it's hard to zip it around.We are return it back to the store tomorrow!"
1679,1,boring & pretentious crap!,"This book is a sure snooze-fest. Luckily for me I did not have to read the entire book for my undergrad art history photo class. We read selected chapters of the book.They writing was horrible. Many parts were unclear. I had to reread what I read over and over. I can't stand this style of writing. Barthes attempts to come off as interesting and intelligent. Instead, he comes off as boring and pretentious.Skip this book... try something else."
1691,1,"Great topic, poor writing style","Tom Brokaw has chosen a fanastic topic: the Baby boomers' parents. Their life & times, trials & stamina through the Depression, war(s), and raising families. I wish an author with a bit of distance and vision would have done the actual writing of this book. As it is, Brokaw cannonizes his subjects and does a poor job telling the real story. I hope this topic gets explored further by someone other than Brokaw, who has little talent as a writer. I was very disappointed reading this book and I made the mistake of buying gift copies for my elderly war vet friend & neighbors, and my own Father without pre-reading it. Live and learn, I guess. Sorry, I had expectations of being thrilled with this book...but wasn't."
1698,1,A book of simple hurra patriotism,"I used to enjoy Tom Brokaw when he was NBC anchor man as a critical and competent journalist. His book however is a real disappiontment. For me, belonging to the post-war generation, it reads as a very shallow ""hurra-patriotism"" story, without any ctitical investigation of the time priode he covers. Not everything this generation did was so great and I would have expected from a critical journalist like Tom Brokaw to take this aspect into consideration as well. In this sense it is not very demanding book."
1705,1,Reprint of a old-edition (1948 ?! ),"The book is the reprint of a old edition date back 1948 with some little update up to 1963. The Amazon's Search-Inside(TM) refer to another update version of the book (9 ed.). The book's style and content is very old, the charts are hand-made and frankly speaking now it's possible to do much better and the calculation of indicators now can be exact. If you are interested to the prehistory of technical analysis a would suggest ""Welles Wilder - New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems"". Modern and better books are those of Achelis and Colby."
1712,1,Sounds not like yoga instructor... Really I apologise for my feedback.,"The introduction mix with lot of unusual verbal, loud and unpleasant voice!!! I don't understand it even... But I like Seane demonstration. Seane is a fantastic demonstrator, that's advantage of her. The sequence is really senseless for detox flow. But it's good for beginner without full audio mix.I'd like to ask why the video starts with about 20 minutes of advertisement? Its something they give this DVD as free gift...I tried both workout Twist and flow, Purify... Really its not going to work with detox. Well, I agree that She studied Pattabhi jois Ashtanga yoga sequence with someone and use that for her sequence. Actually here the sun salutation A and B help to open your body, after the body opening, her sequence like warm down your body. I may try with traditional sun salutation with detox flow. Lets see, how its work. Anyhow, I'm not going to play this DVD again."

1883,1,"Sounds like a good idea, but....","I bought this toy for my son for Christmas. I had bought some of the ""trucks"" and wanted him to have Bob and Wendy too. I found this set and thought it would be great. They ONLY good thing about this set is that he has Bob and Wendy.The clicking blocks sound like a great concept, but they don't work. If you can get them to click you are lucky. You can not build anything with this set. The box shows a house, buildings, etc., but you can't build these thing because the magnets are in the wrong places and the roofs make the whole thing top heavy!I would avoid this set unless you just really need Bob and Wendy (like us)."
1942,1,Missing most of the play!,"This version of the play is MISSING Acts III and IV.Act IV, Scene ii contains some of the most famous lines of Shakespeare: ""Fear no more the heat of the sun ..."" So, if you need this play, are crunched for time, and need it to supplement a research paper on stream-of-consciousness and Mrs. Dalloway ... I would definitely GET ANOTHER VERSION!Thanks a lot for the complete rip off."

2016,1,unseen is the word,"I read this book two years ago and had the opportunity to participate in an interview with the author on National Public Radio. Ms. Gibbons was gracious, of course, but she could not answer the obvious difficulties in this book. The chronology is confused, and while the book reaches for important issues, ie the need for a young girl to have a mother, the treatment of the characters is shallow. The longing is there, and it is expressed well, but ultimately, the miraculous ""healing"" of the mother and her immediate death after her restoration--undermine whatever strength was in the novel.The one character that the reader has no trouble believing is Pearl, the caring maternal housekeeper. She is a jewel of characterization, much needed and appreciated in this novel."
2023,1,[bad deal],Listin to The velvet underground's Murder Mystery and then listen to chop suey. You can not tell me they didn't rip that intro from the velvets.I Dont care about this CD I just felt like saying that they ripped the velvet underground's murder mystery off.
2037,1,global puzzle,"poor Adam Crall, reviewer. Cameroon is its own, French-speaking nation in Africa. It is NOT in South Africa, which is also an independent nation."
2124,1,A Classic?,I honestly don't know how this novel has become a classic. As an avid reader I had to practically force myself to get through this book and only did so because my book club was reading it. I wasn't the only person in our club who was disappointed. It was a miserable story and pointless. It was a great discription of life in Brooklyn during that time period but Betty Smith never made me care about the characters enough to care about what happened to them. This novel needs more character development to be a classic. I only give it 2 stars instead of 1 because it really is a great description of life in Brooklyn.
2164,1,Another one...,"...of those bands whose latest work disappoints me. If like me, you were expecting more 'sorry about tomorrow' then steer clear. This just wasn't *ahem* 'rocking' enough for my tastes - and felt like a real step backwards (contrary to the other reviews) I don't think they will return to their higher energy material, which for me is a shame, as I was a fan."
2180,1,Disappointed,I developed white spots on my legs after using a tanning bed. This product had GREAT reviews eliminating the appearance of these white spots. Unfortunately it did nothing for me.
2211,1,Boring,"The problem with this book, is that you cannot argue for copyrights on one hand, and against them on the other. Either there is intellectual property or there is not. If there is not, then it is a government granted monopoly, and government granted monopolies can be shown to be less efficient then the market. As such, this means that copyrights would not do a better job at encouraging ingenuity. The thing is the book seems to talk about the philosophy of it a lot more then the reality of it."
2245,1,moby = genius ¿? why ¿?,"People are saying that moby is like a god, that he is one of the world best producer, people say that his this record, Play, is the album of the year, ¿?. I have heard this is the best techno album ever. I cannot understand this things. Please forgive me, but in my view, Play is simply a bad album. The only thing moby has made, is sample some old soul vinyls, and put music behind. And believe me, that the only good things of this album are these voices, which are the only things moby has not made. The drums are simply bad produced, the music is simply, and his voice is, oh my god!, why anybody has say to moby that he cannot sign?. You could say me you like some of the album songs, but please, DON'T SAY ME THAT MOBY IS A GOOD PRODUCER AND DON'T SAY THAT PLAY IS ONE OF THE BEST 90's ALBUM!!!"
2336,1,Not worthy of One Star. If the Academy gave out Oscars for,"Worst movie, worst acting, and worst script, this would win hands down. When it comes to lame, witless and downright stupid movies, Ben Stiller is on quite a roll. If you are not a teenaged boy, I recommend staying away from this one.Dodgeball fancies itself as a parody of the typical sports movie, don't fall for it. The non-stop toilet humor is lame and predictable and it's a wonder that this movie can garner such rave reviews from so many people.In my humble opinion, if you have an IQ greater than 12, don't bother with Dodgeball. Personally, I'd sooner watch a marathon of Paulie Shore and Carrot Top movies before sitting thru Dodgeball again, and that my friends, is saying something."
2369,1,Can't Manage to think about it...,"The Last Unicorn is a TERRIBLE movie, for one the DVD release was very poor, and some aspects of the film weren't made for children...or ANYONE, for that matter. There isn't really a point to this film, so DO NOT BUY IT!"
2391,1,Cute story with difficult vocabulary for kids,"This book, set in Paris in late December follows a hobo named Armand, who's gruff on the outside, but reveals his inner warmth when he finds a newly homeless family living under ""his"" bridge. While this book does have many good points, this isn't a book I would recommend. The story would be very entertaining to a fifth grader but the vocabulary skills and difficulty understanding Paris or gypsies would frustrate a reader in this age group. A sixth grader, however, would more easily comprehend the vocabulary (I admit that I didn't know many of the words and had to guess at their meaning in context--and I don't consider my vocabulary skills poor by any means) and cultural situations but they would be bored by the simplistic story. In all, I would not recommend it not because it is a bad book, but because I think there are better choices out there."
2431,1,Rule#1: Just because it's published doesn't mean it's true.,"This one of the worst abominations ever put in print to ""describe"" Catholicism. It is of note only for its ludicrous claims, half-truths, and outright lies. DON'T BE FOOLED: THIS TEXT IS NOTHING MORE THAN RUN-OF-THE-MILL, PITIFULLY IGNORANT ANTI-CATHOLICISM AT ITS WORST.It has value only as an example of atrocious scholarship, flagrant misrepresentation, and outright bigotry."
2448,1,"good pan, just hope you don't need the lifetime warranty","good pan, just hope you don't need the lifetime warranty. this complaint is not pan specific. If you have read the tons of consumer complaints against Meyer corp you will see that they do NOT honor there lifetime warranty on the non stick surface. I had my pan for 2 years and the surface stopped working. we have never used the pan in the oven, nor put it in the dish washer and we don't even own anything but plastic pan utensils. all of which makes our pan a perfect candidate to be replaced. according to the website, you don't need an RMA or anything just UPS the pan. well i did. the UPS tracking shows them getting it some 4 months ago and no word from them. after checking around on line, this is typical of them. save your $10 in UPS shipping and buy a different brand. vote with your dollar and spend it else ware."
2480,1,Finally finished it,"I liked how it started, with the beheading of a relative. And details of court life were interesting, at the beginning, but became tedious with the repetitiveness. This book really could have been half or one-third the size, it drug on and on and on. Getting to the end was a relief, I doubt I'll read another book by this author."
2514,1,Most Disappointed,"Well, how can I review this product when it still haven't arrived. It has apparently been resent but once again hasn't arrived. Very disappointed!!!!"
2521,1,"Yow! Lots of people wrote stuff, huh?","This book stunk. I believe that reality can have deeper meanings, but don't get to deep or you'll drown. The only time you can go that deep and not drown, is with drugs. I never thought Lord of the Flies would attract so many druggies."
2569,1,Overrated,This book is overrated by a longshot. If I didn't know any better I could swear that this book wasn't even edited! Turtledove has 50 things going on at once! There are too many characters and too little continuity. I would recommend this book to anyone who has insomnia.
2577,1,Not good,"I tried to read it, it was just so boring and bad. His other books are good, this book is not."
2590,1,How To Write a Movie in 21 Days,"I purchased and read this book because it was recommended by an author that has helped me develop in the screenwriting craft. But I didn't find it particularly helpful or practical. However, you might draw some inspiration from it."
2611,1,I want my [money] back!,"I was the only one in my senior English class who loved the epic poem. Several years later I bought a copy of it at a comic book shop.For some reason, I liked Christopher Lambert, and I thought he would be a good actor for a movie based on this classic tale.Man, was I wrong!Aside from the names of the hero and one of the villians, this movie has almost nothing in common with the poem. It's got nothing in common with a good movie. It's a travesty!The acting, even with a so-called ""top talent"" like Christopher Lambert, is awful. The setting is almost non-existant, and the plot, ah yes, the plot ....I knew this movie would reek within the first 10 minutes. I mean, I tried really hard to be open-minded, but it was to no avail.Spare yourself the pain and skip the movie. Settle in on a dark winter's night by a fire, put on some quiet music, and read the epic poem. You'll be glad you did."
2653,1,Not entirely original...,"Actually everything in the book IS helpful, and a OK read... but most of the material is FREE on the net already.The stuff from ""The Layguide"" was mirrored on all kinds of websites all over the place before it ever became print. If you search for keywords like ""layguide"" and ""player guide"" on the net, you will find this stuff is basically plagaurized. It was just a compilation of a bunch of usenet posts.Now, if you really want something in print, and original too, do yourself a favor now and go buy ""The Art of Seduction"" by Robert Greene, also available here on Amazon.com. The guy researched great seducers and seductions throughout history, and came up with types of seducers, the stages of seduction, etc. And his work is entirely original as well."
2678,1,Make sure product is for your GPS,"I recommend the product if it is for your specific GPS!I purchased a Garmin GPS 76CSX, and Amazon said people who buy this product also buy, and all the also buys were for different model GPS's and did not work with that unite, so be careful when ordering."
2688,1,Terribly Dissappointed,"I had watched this version when I first got it but must have missed the missing Coral Sea parts for some reason. It jumps from the scene where Rochfort has told Garth about Operation AF (Coral Sea) to where they are telling Rochfort that they had a rough time at the battle!Some really great scenes are missing in this verison. Hope that they release a full version sometime soon. Its a shame that this movie was so downgraded from the original.Bottom line: dont waste your money. Wait, wait, wait for them to put out the Full ""Real"" Collector's Edition.I note that the ""added for TV"" scenes seem to be more personal and probably added for the ladies but weren't they in the theater version too? I seem to remember seeing the scene with Garth and his girlfriend talking at their apartment before he leaves in theater. Perhaps age is starting to show ... in me! :)"
2722,1,Twice the effort for half the sleekness,"My hair is about 90% straight and 10% wavy, so you wouldn't think it takes much to make it sleek, straight and shiny; I even use an ant-firzz serum before I style. But using this Conair took twice as long as drying and straightening my hair in two steps, and gave me half as straight hair. I even used my regular blow dryer first to get most of the dampness out, thinking this would speed up the process...but no, it took ages. The Conair is basically a very small hairdryer with a few brush bristles. When I was finished, my hair definitely had frizz and fly aways, and I had to go back over it with my Chi flat iron. I really wanted to like this product and to save time, but I will be returning it."
2757,1,Evolution is true,"Science in no way refutes evolution, if used correctly. The authors of this book don't have an inkling of what 'science' is. If you're thinking about buying this book, do yourself a favor and go buy ""On the Origin of Species"" by Charles Darwin. That is, if you care about the truth. This book is full of lies. What it preaches is blatantly wrong and you would be a fool to believe a word of it."
2877,1,Is book true?,"In the very first chapter the motion picture frame of war coverage on the Roer river in Germany, it shows the dates 1942-1943, but the invasion of Europe never happend until June 1944. Please explain."
2880,1,Unrated?,"I'm tired of all these movies claiming to be the Unrated Version and not offering a single thing that wouldn't be included without exception in a PG-13 movie. Add to that only seven or eight decent laughs in the whole movie and I'm pretty ticked-off. Explaining the spoofs would actually be funnier than the movie, so I won't do it.Tried and true spoof formula is not properly hashed out in cheap attempt to cash-in on quarter-of-a-century craze(Airplane 1980). Top Secret, Hot Shot, Hot Shot Part Deux and Not Another Teen Movie are much examples of this (art) form.Might have given it two stars if they left the Unrated off the box.A lot more of Josh Meyers might have helped."
2896,1,Refund,This has to be one of the worst movies I have seen. What a waste of talent & money. One has to wonder what someone was thinking when this was made. I could only stand to watch half of it.. Don't waste your time & money.
2996,1,Not the Buddy Holly I know and love,"My husband bought this CD for me during a recent visit to the UK, and I don't like it. I'm a Buddy Holly fan, but sound quality is poor, and it doesn't compare to his later recordings in terms of arrangements and singing style. Not my cup of tea."
3015,1,What a pity,Thankfully I only paid [money] for this cd single. The original edit is the only decent version on the cd and that only goes for 4 minutes. Why do they pay dj's to remix these songs when the remixes are awful and the original in infinitely better. I think dj's have stopped trying and just put out any rubbish for cd fillers. My advice would be don't buy this until you have listened to it first.
3046,1,really BAD Sony transfer.,"Saw a friend's copy of this and the difference between the DVD and this bluray is like night and day - pun intended - someone over at Sony when transferring this disc made the entire movie so utterly dark - it renders the disc nearly unwatchable. Granted the film is supposed to take place at night, the new transfer is quite frankly awful."
3104,1,predictable,"predictable hollywood flick. not horrible if you've just eaten too much, it's 1 in the morning, and you need something to zone out with. aside from that scenario, not worth the time."
3174,1,Great writing - poor publishing,"ACE reprint of 'Dune' - ISBN0-441-17271-7never before have i seen a book contain so many print & editorial errors...ink application is not homogeneous, resulting in many blots & light print areas...print pressure is inconstant, resulting in wavy print & apparent font reduction...then there are the editorial errorspg. 108 ""the gift is the blessing of the river"" <giver>...the most egregious so farif there had been physical defect allowing return to place of purchase, this paperback would surely have been exchanged for a previously published edition of better quality"
3181,1,Embarrassing Ebook,"After reading the Kindle sample of this book, I have to agree with the many critical reviews of this edition. This is not a review of the writing, which is excellent, but of this electronic edition of the title.Aside from the fact that $15 for the electronic edition of a book that is over 40 years old and has already been widely published as a mass market paperback for for half the price is obscene, the quality of this Kindle edition is so horrible I would not want it if it was free. DUNE is one of the great classics of scifi literature but this ebook is an embarrassment to both the publisher and the author and I would urge anyone interested in reading this book to pass on this edition. Instead, find any one of the cheap tens of thousands of used copies that are easily available of this title."
3237,1,Thou Preachest Too Much!,"This book has a preachy tone that current readers will find hard to take but at the core of this book there are useful truths and insights into the learning process. For the good student, this book will confirm what he or she already knows and may add a few additional touches to personal trouble spots. For the average to poor student, it may be hard to get past the school marmish tone to get to ""the goods"" this book has to offer. I'm afraid in today's environment, this book won't reach those who need it the most."
3316,1,didn't see it yet but not buying it,"It is not fair to call this a ""review"" because I have not watched the DVD. Due to having seen several reviews here and on other websites regarding the lack of good audio and the sadly recrafted movie, I refuse to buy it. I LOVE The Hobbit from my childhood. I have been searching for months for the movie in DVD for my kids and after reading several reviews, I know myself well enough to choose to avoid the deep disappointment that others have related about this particular DVD. I just want the same movie I watched as a kid on a DVD. Is that too much to ask?"
3391,1,Could have been better,"I bought this book for the unique spreads and read it thoroughly. I would have liked to see explanations for why the cards are laid out in certain order and places. I thought the questions were too specific and would be difficult to answer with numerous cards. Interesting spreads, good subject matter, not well executed or explained at all. Please rewrite the book, Ms. Abraham and I will buy it again."
3460,1,Soooooo disappointed,"I was so happy when I borrowed this movie from our local library. Now I'm only happy that I borrowed it instead of purchasing it. The books were , basically, thrown out when this movie was made. I was so disappointed. I will not watch this sequel again. If you really liked the first two movies, I would not bother to watch the 3rd. It left me feeling sick to my stomach at such a gross departure from the books and story line."
3544,1,Worthless,"As a beginner I found this book worthless. Many of the scripts in the book and on the CD apparently do not work. I asked a friend, who is a bright engineering student with programming experience, to try to try her hand at getting the guest book script to work and she didn't have any luck either. I submitted a question twice to the online Q&A forum over 3 weeks ago and it has yet to be posted, nor have I received any acknowledgement that the message was received. In my opinion this book fails on all counts. I advise beginners to look elsewhere."
3740,1,Don't listen to the other reviewers it sucked!,"I did not like Spiderman 2 at all (...)! It was like watching a soap opera movie or something with no action in it. All there is, is just graphics there's not any fighting in it. Doc Ock wasn't a villian at all he was just tryin to go after Spiderman for what he did to him and all. I don't really see Tobey Maguire as Spiderman that much he just wasn't right at all. Kirsten Dunst was allright as MJ and she's georgeous. I wouldn't mind having a girl like that. James Franco would have been a better Spiderman than Tobey Maguire. Why did they had to choose Tobey? I hate Tobey Maguire and all of his movies they suck and he's also boring who never says a word. But anyways don't waste your money on this movie it's very bad. That goes along with the first Spiderman. Both Spiderman movies suck!"
3749,1,Would be great if I could watch it,"Never mentioned in the description that this was a PAL video from another region than the USA. An omission that means a lot. I was at this show, have seen clips, and was looking forward to seeing the entire thing now, 11 years later. Be forwarned - if you get this and live in America and do not own a multi-region player you will be out of luck."
3752,1,"A trashy, macho bodice-ripper for guys.","When I started reading Birds of Prey, I really enjoyed the atmosphere and setting. Then I started groaning at the incredibly predictable behavior of the cardboard cutout characters. By 1/4 of the way through, I found myself hypnotized by the parade of every stereotypical character I remember from the trashy adventure books I loved when I was 12. The young, perfect hero. His loyal negro sidekick. The noble, tragic father. The backstabbing piratical villain. The fat, ugly, cowardly, corrupt, rich villain. The cruel villain who is, however, a ""true warrior"". The sultry temptress. The beautiful imprisoned princess. A half-dozen more plot elements which I won't reveal for fear of spoiling the book. In every way, at best an average book."
3783,1,"cant rate, don't work",I can't write a review because the DVD doesn't work when I put it in my DVD player. Terrible shame. Don't know why. Everything else works but this Frankie & Johnny DVD.
3816,1,"Bogus, package labeled correctly","Whole family loved the first when viewed in 2011, it is aging well. This one is not aging well too many things are too bogus to keep the story line going.The scene with the Reaper's Challenge is the only redeeming scene and even that one is slower than most scenes in today's comedies. Only watch if you are a ""Bill and Ted"" Historian."
3848,1,Poor,"A very poor book. Don't bother. From the title, you'd think the book has interesting information from high-level commanders. It doesn't. It's mostly just a bunch of ramblings, often contradictory. The chapter on Finland maybe would rate three stars. I think the only useful information in the whole book otherwise was the information on the number of snow-plows per mile that were needed to keep roads clear. If you are looking for any other logistical info, forget it. The description of the book is highly misleading, and I regret having bought it."
3899,1,"DO Not Buy, Do Not Buy","I read a lot of negative reviews about the purchase of high end, expensive perfumes at Amazon Website; however, since this one was being sold by amazon.com itself, I decided to take a risk. I am extremely disappointed with this purchase. The fragrance is so subtle that even a person standing one foot away cannot appreciate it------------and that is immediately after putting it on! Complete waste of money."
3926,1,AWEFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,these earings are the worst! they are way too heavy and the rocks on the bottom weent the same color! on was grey and one was black! I dont recommend this!
3931,1,"There is more ""Bad"" about this DVD than just Religion.","This DVD has VERY terrible sound and VERY low budget video footage. The only good thing is it has alot of songs, and the riot is somewhat interesting. Bad Religion is a good band, but this DVD is awful!! :(You will feel ripped off if you buy this!! Borrow it first, if you can, before buying it!!! I guess this DVD could always be used as an expensive cup coaster."
3932,1,Disappointed - they tricked me,"I feel cheated in some way. I heard Jack Blades and Tommy Shaw on The Howard Stern Show playing ACOUSTIC versions of these songs. I liked the sound a lot. Then I bought the CD and found that none of the songs on the CD are acoustic at all.I'm a big Jack Blades and Tommy Shaw fan otherwise I wouldn't have purchased the CD at all, but these songs are really just cheap karaoke versions of great songs. Shaw-Blades bring nothing new to them. The sound is VERY watered down. Like Muzak in an elevator. My advice would be to just buy the original versions of these songs as performed by the original artists.I'll show mercy and give it two stars (which it doesn't deserve) because I did like California Dreamin' (although even with that one give me the original).Shame on you Shaw-Blades, are you really that hard up for money at this point in your career that you need to release a karaoke CD ?"
4086,1,horrible,"One of the worst books I have ever read. Ever! I forced myself to read it only because it was a gift, but honestly it's not worth the paper it was printed on. I wish I had those hours of my life back, I totally regret reading it.The characters are flat and have only one demension. The names are either copied from better books, impossible to pronounce or complete cheese. Through out the whole book you feel bad for the characters because the dialog is so bad.I've read better work by 14 year old class mates!"
4128,1,Don't let the rave reviews fool you!,"Like many, our family bought this book and the next based on the glowing reviews of the many readers. Unfortunately, we were in for quite a shock as these are the most unimaginative, poorly written books ever published. At Borders where I returned all four books we purchased (2 copies of Eragon and 2 of Eldest), there was a pile of returned copies of Eldest behind the counter. I was in fact unable to get a refund, instead I got store credit on a gift card.Eragon is an uninspiring story chock full of tired, overused characters. The prose is unimaginative, very wordy, and fails miserably on all levels. Each characters talks just like every other character. I don't know why everyone said this book was so good. My kids are in tears. Thanks a lot Chris Paolini for ruining our last week of summer break!"
4134,1,"not great, but not terrible","Ok it was pretty derivative, although I admit I never clued in on the Star Wars similarities until I read some reviews. And the writing was pretty pedestrian. But I did enjoy it and that has to count for something. A good introduction to the genre for young readers? yeah I think so."
4245,1,"The title should be ""FOR WOMEN WHO HAVE NO LIFE OUTSIDE OF DATING MEN""","If you are a woman who has no life outside of whatever man you are trying to pursue, then this is the book for you.This book pretty much tells women to pretend to have a life outside of your boyfriend or lover, only then will he realize how truly amazing you are.Only then will the man will try to pursue you and feel like he is winning you over, you alpha female you!Man's thoughts: ""Gosh, she has friends that she goes to the mall with on Saturdays and yoga in the evenings on weekdays, she's such a busy and important lady. She doesn't need a man in her life, that's why I like her.""For all women out there, I know finding the right person is tough.But please stop caring so much about having a relationship with a man.Find your own happiness within yourself.You don't need to read this book to tell you to go out and have a life!!!!!!"
4260,1,Fans only,"What is this series? I guess it is romance, in the same genre as those thick novels with a woman and Fabio on the cover. If one starts this book with that in mind, you won't be disappointed. It still has Ayla inventing everything and healing everyone, and Jondalar is still an amusingly dumb blond with one endearing attribute. The animal friends are still there, wowing the prehistoric residents of France. Auel still manages to make sex scenes tiresome -- singlehandedly she may keep teenagers from having sex because she makes it seem so boring.But a fun bubble-head read nonetheless. Smart of the publisher to release this book in May -- it is the perfect beach read."
4272,1,"No stars, No story","Unfortunately Amazon doesn't let you rate a book with zero stars. How so little could happen in so many pages, I'll never know."
4282,1,Like a Seinfeld Episode....,"...this is a book about nothing. Ms. Auel really phoned this one in, and I couldn't be more disappointed. My advice, if you haven't started the series, is to read the first three, skip four and five, and hope six lives up to the first half of the series. Unless you want a slightly less boring version of a research paper on the topography of Europe 30,000 years ago, stay away. I think it took her twelve years because she kept dozing off.... I NEVER have written a comment on a book before. The only reason I felt compelled to do so now is, after all the anticipation, I feel cheated and let down. Of course, who cares, because of course I'll buy the sixth one too, just to see if things look up. Still, I think I'll wait till it gets to the 2nd-hand store next time."
4338,1,bad,"nanci needs to get back to her roots. I would just like to hear some new work from the ""old"" nanci. This cd is terrible"
4382,1,Shrunken version of original is WAY TOO SMALL!,"The original, much larger version of this Bible is excellent. However, this printing is way smaller. The text is so small it's barely readable. My 8 year old who is used to the other version started crying and needs a magnifying glass to read the text.Get the original, much larger version if you can."
4389,1,Children's Illustrated Bible,I bought this book for my 8 yearold grandson and did not even give it to him. The book appears to be miniaturized. The print is so tiny that many people would not be able to read it without magnifying glasses! It is not appropriate for children given this tiny print. The pictures are well done and it would have been a perfect gift if the print were not so small.
4403,1,Problem With These Discs,"Is anyone else having issues with these discs? When you first place the discs in the player, it skips over the main menus. Then the ""menu"" button will only start and stop the episode selected, but it will not return you to the main menu. There is no Spanish or Portuguese dubbed audio on the discs (despite what the menus and packaging claim) and the episodes automatically play with Spanish subtitles even when the subtitles are turned ""off."" The only way to avoid this is to choose ""other"" subtitles with the remote. This appears to be an authoring issue, as I am using a two year-old Sony Dream System DVD player and have not had these issues with previous seasons. I'm exchanging my discs immediately, but I have a feeling they might all be bad. Anyone else hear about these issues?"
4425,1,possibly worst movie ever,"This film is quite possibly the worst movie I've ever seen. Oh, it's true... What a waste of time! No Mike Myers, Jamie Lee or the Doctor? Why even have ""Halloween"" in the title then? There's absolutely nothing scary here except maybe the acting and cheesy effects. Horrible!! 100% USDA Garbage"
4486,1,GREAt movie BAD blu ray,i love this movie more than love itself. it is one of the most amazing movies ever made period. BUT the quality of this blu ray is garbage. wait until the re-release or just get the DVD ...to bad it looks so awful...great movie
4493,1,rubbish,"this comes from an action fan, and this aint no action film i was expecting something to keep me excited and on the edge of my seat. no way. there are like 4 fighting scences, and admitedlly these are very good but that does not lift the whole film, the dialogue in between these fight scences is laughable, i went to sleep 4 times in the cinema. now some people might like borin ""chat"" but i dont if a film is goin be based on the talking it should at least be well written like shawshank redemtion but this is borin i repeat borin borin borin. i know a lot of people will disagree with this but then maybe they werent expecting an action fest like it billed. so if u like boring chatter (a lot of) and a fighting (not much of) then buy this but i personally would not buy it. the end of my rant :)"
4549,1,We'll Always Have Parrots,"I agree with Pork Chop T. Boring. No character development and a weird repetition of what would hopefully been a plot. I added a collection on my Kindle called ""Rejects""."
4567,1,a very uneven movie,"Even though there were occasional brilliances, I kept asking myself why so many people found this movie great. I found the story very incoherent and everything was excessive. It was full of overacting and overdirecting. There are some stories to which movies just can't do justice. I'd rather read the book than watch this movie version. I think people should stop justifying this film only because Kubrik made it."
4653,1,Santana has done it again... eh... literally!,"Yep! Santana comes back yet once more with the SAME formula: lots of big names in the music biz packed in a nice album, with him and his band playing to them. End of formula. Is the album bad? Not by any means, if you isolate it from the rest of his musical production. But if you consider this guy has been putting out significantly more original material in years past, listening to more of this Santana-guitar-sound-accompanying-some-big-name-in-the-music-business is quite dissapointing. Once more, I feel fortunate for having Napster. I wouldn't buy this album, not even for its contagious opening ""Hermes"". My advice is simple: skip it. I give it two stars for what it's worth production-wise, but nothing else."
4697,1,Waste of money and dangerous Steroids too,This stuff was a waste of money. It contains Androst chemicals which are steroids. There are safer products on the market too. I tried Instinto Sensual. It is safe and works great too.
4699,1,Poor Sound Quality for the price,"Compared to Shure's E2cs, the rival they're going for, it just doesn't match up. For almost the same price, they offer a higher noise isolation, i've compared them in outdoor environments."
4709,1,Works for 6 weeks,"This unit broke, simply stopped working after six weeks since opening the box. The unit was used nearly every day 5 days a week in an industrial, workbench environment. I believe the units works well when functional. Perhaps it is most suited for hobbyists.Edit: Amazon replaced our unit with a duplicate model without labels or brand stickers. It still works today."
4760,1,not for me,A reasonable price and a good beginning but what seemed to be a thriller turned into a slow love story with some mystery thrown in. Wasn't my cup of tea.
4765,1,How do you expect people to purchase this item?,"The product description states that the sizing is based on neck size, however you don't provide any measurement with the corresponding S,M,L sizes. Are we supposed to guess at the measurements? It might be easier to shoot darts blind-folded!"
4803,1,North to the Orient (Harbrace Paperbacks Library),This particular printing may be authentic to the period but the print is very difficult to read. It is dizzying.
4827,1,It's not worth it; it's a waste of time,This is a very good if you need a brush up on the very basics like percentage and fractions. This is the first 200 pages and it is very easy. It gives you a sense of achievement and wrongly makes you think you will ace the SAT. The SAT is not this easy...The harder concepts are poorly explained. Explanations to practice questions and tests are extremely shallow and vague. Some of the techniques are much too convoluted and take too much time. There are better strategies than what this book offers.
4830,1,Would be a better value with quality batteries,"Unit worked well for what it is, a small and versatile glue gun for small home repairs and crafts. The batteries are really really bad. And unfortunately they did not build in an adapter to use the included AC plug. That would have been helpful so that when the batteries die we could still use the unit. Bad engineering.Buy a corded gun if you are serious and never worry about batteries again."
4841,1,"Booo! Bad writing. Bad, bad writing.","Does anyone say ""Crazy getup""? If they do, I wish they wouldn't. There's too many examples of bad cliche writing in this that I don't have time to point them all out. I was looking for a good time travel romance. This isn't it."
4956,1,Beware: NO 5th BOOK!,"The Everyman's Library version is abridged -- without being advertised as so, either on Amazon OR anywhere inside the book!The Wealth of Nations is a pivotal work in the history of economics and human nature, but you'd be better off finding an edition that includes the entire work.The Wealth of Nations (Everyman's Library)"
5061,1,returned,I returned it. It was broken when I received it. I was very unhappy with the return process trying to get a return # was very difficult and felt like I was imposing on the staff. I have bought many things on the site and have never had to return anything. I ended up getting one from the Keurig web site (of couse it cost a little bit more). Your welcome to call me on my cell @ 520-820-2790.
5088,1,A Real Snoozer,"Hard to believe that someone could take one of the most dramatic events of the twentieth century and make it this mind-numbingly boring. Written with an overly verbose, convoluted style, it just never seemed to get to the point. NOTE to future authors: three page end notes have a name - THEY'RE CALLED CHAPTERS. The text reads like a caricature of a blabbering communist from an old movie from the Fifties in Hollywood."
5095,1,Not His Best,"Like many others I am a big fan of Stephen King. Most of his books are terrific but ""Dreamcatcher"" joins his other two bombs, ""The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon"" and ""The Talisman"". The first part of the book is well written but it later deteriorates into gibberish. I had a hard time telling who was in who's mind or who was doing what to which when. As someone once said ""In every fat book there's a thin book trying to get out"". King claims to have written this whole book with a fountain pen. I hope he has gotten over his writer's cramp by now so he can start on a better book up to his usual higher standard. Think thin (or is it ""Thinner""."
5169,1,too many negatives,"I just got this toy for my six month old daughter and I cannot recommend it. Here is why:The batteries don't last at all (empty after ten days)It is way too heavy, my daughter can already pick it up and if she drops it on her head it will really hurt her.The lights and music come on by the slightest touch or vibration, she does not have to do anything to help her learn (like putting the balls in the middle) - just me walking by will make it come on."
5188,1,Knockoff,"Aside from the fact that it took two weeks for my order to arrive, once it finally arrived the shirt appeared to be a knockoff. In comparison to another Duofold item I purchased from another seller, this shirt is clearly inferior - not only is the material different but the tag appears to be an iron-on copy with several of the words blacked out. I would never buy from this seller again."
5198,1,"Pass: Novelty item, not real usable","Though very well built, and fun to hold, it's not usable if you're already good at first-person shooters using a mouse -well, not without some serious retraining of your hand and wrist. Especially games heavy on right-click, like Unreal Tournament. It's basically a mouse, only bulkier and less comfortable for extended play."
5211,1,Horrendous,"Anybody that would sit through something so stupid like this movie should be shot. I was not one of the other losers I have what they called taste in movies in this day and age and this is just flat out retarted. Its also a shame i have to give this movie 1 star it makes me feel as though i support this shi* in a way. I just wonder if the acting in it could be half as bad as the movie or the plotI wouldnt watch this if i was paid, Wake up America and today's youth"
5222,1,not durable,"Several of these came with my crossbow so I used them to sight in and bought Gold Tip brand bolts for hunting. They're a bit brittle/ fragile as compared to the Gold Tip bolts. They were destroyed by target shooting, some had the inserts pull out and left the insert and broadhead inside my target and others snapped off when I pulled them out. It seemed to me like just the force of hitting the layered target was enough to crack the arrow or break the glue loose and they finished breaking when I tried to pull them out."
5269,1,who picked the music...???,"we had bought the previous model of this crib toy for our older son, but some of the moving parts had frozen over time in storage, so we decided to replace it since he loved it so much. that version had happy, cheerful nursery songs. the new version plays an almost eerie, creepy, surreal-type music that actually made my youngest son cry! it's a good thing the new model comes with a silent mode (bubble sounds) or we would've returned it.visually, the toy is mesmerizing and my son likes it as long as we don't play the music."
5342,1,Buy the DVD for Branagh's Commentary,"I thought the film was way over the top on mood and effects. It was a complete distraction from the characters and plot. I think it could have been much easier to watch if it had been filmed with 1/2 the intensity. But the cast is wonderful and Branagh's commentary on the DVD gives great information about film making, the challenges to stage the scenes, and the process of refining the story. I will buy the DVD to get the commentary and will watch that much more than the film."
5347,1,Check the Track Listing,"Flying, Blue Jay Way, Your Mother Should Know, Baby You're A Rich Man. Did the group just not try to write a complete album or were they out of ideas? The so-called better tracks, Penny Lane and Strawberry Fiels suffer from Paul's lightweight writing and John's nasally singing - ""Straw Berry Fieeeelds For Eveh..""Ugh.Who knows, but it sure doesn't stand up to anything before or after its release. Anyone who rates this 5-stars is simply swept up in the Beatles. They can't be listening to the music."
5364,1,A Headache of a Vacuum,"The thing burned through belts. One time I replaced 2 belts in one vacuuming session--and yes I installed them properly and they weren't rubbing against anything.My guess is that it's the quality of the belts--or should I say lack of quality.Even after two years, the vacuum, when ran, would fill the house with a hot rubber smell.The tubes were also prone to clogging and I've had to pull it apart numerous times to push dust clogs through so it would work properly.After two years, the vacuum just stopped when the motor burned out. I did us a favor.The cord retractor was neat; at least they got that part right."
5481,1,"Survival Island, should read, Sink me Island","Another hype movive that is so, lets keep it basic, stupid. one scene she takes off all her clothes and comes out with her bottoms on. and there are more of this camera work. it's just a bad movie."
5484,1,Really?,"So, who wrote this, because it had to be a man. Of course, women could never survive without a man, could they? And wouldn't they just do the silliest possible things imaginable? Treat each other terribly? Or run around with flowers in their hair and dance all day? Not one of them would be able to grow their own food, and for sure - they would absolutely drug and abuse any other women out of what? jealousy? Oh please. The only good part of this is the end where the only man alive after the rain is GAY!This is just awful, not campy. It belittles women in every possible way. Save your money."
5485,1,useless product,"when i first received the product, it worked ok. my grandaughter who is almost 5 and wiegh 40 pounds, bent both rods an now it is broke and usless"
5520,1,disappointed,this item did nothing to educate nor inform the audience of the artist Vincent VanGogh as a person nor his work
5628,1,Don't even bother with this one,"It it wern't for Russell Crowe, this would have been a complete failure. The plot takes place in a fictional country in Latin America. The main conflict of the movie is that Meg Ryan's husband gets kidnapped by gorillas. Throughout the movie he is abused, denied of a shave or a shower, and is put to rotten work. Russell Crowe is the man in charge of working out a deal with the gorillas to free Ryan's husband. At the same time there is a sexual tension brewing between Meg Ryan and Russell Crowe. In my opinion, it is pretty pathetic that Meg Ryan would show interest in another man while her husband is in captivity by hostile gorillas. The whole movie is really bad, Meg Ryan is a just terrible, the only good part is the action seen at the end, but it doesn't quite save the movie."
5692,1,So incredibly overrated..,"Bon Jovi are in close competition with Nirvana for the ""Most Overrated Band in History"" award. If I had a dollar for every time I heard the cr@ppy ""Living on a Prayer"" played on the radio, I'd be able to retire in comfort, and I'm only 21! I can only reccommend this album to people who like to annoy themselves with $hitty music."
5708,1,Lost interest after the hot tub scene.,"This movie had plenty of laughs, but I lost all interest after the two naked men pull owen wilson from the hot tub. Could have totally done without seeing that. If you can overlook that scene then I guess it was an alright move, maybe 3 1/2 stars."
5714,1,Sucked,"Some funny parts here and there, but mostly sucked. It definitely wasn't worth paying to watch, I wouldn't watch it again, but if you could get it free, it might be ok."
5733,1,Don't buy,"Stay away from baseball game this year. Without MVP baseball having the mlb license, the games just aren't worth the time and money. MLB the show, has terrible game play and overall isn't fun to play. I bought MLB the show one night and sold it the next. MVP basebal sucks with the college players so don't buy that either."
5748,1,DON'T BUY THIS VERSION,"Don't make the mistake i did by buying this copy of this classic ITALIAN movie.It's a complete disaster with faded colors and grainy images.I can't beleive they put this one on the market.You'll get to see the three sketches all right, but the transfer is simply amateurish and insulting.No subtitles,not even the original ITALIAN track,no gallery of photos etc.This is the worst dvd i ever bought.Luckily for others,a new version was released in 2005 which has the proper treatment.I just hope that VISCONTI's last movie THE INNOCENT won't fall in this category when they released it someday.Let us pray for the preservation of LAURA ANTONELLI's beauty."
5768,1,NOT worth 10$,"I bought this set a while ago because it looked unique and fun. Do not make the same mistake I made of buying it, it is not worth even 10$! The exercises are extremely fast paced. What I mean by this is that he will show you a move for a split second then expect you to have it mastered so while they're dancing away a million miles a minute, you're stuck there still trying to figure out how to do the moves. My other problem is when I would do the resistance disc exercises, I honestly did not feel any shape or form of a burn meaning the exercise wasn't doing ANYTHING (and to top it off, I was using the most resistant band the set came with). I wasted money on this ridiculous program, shame on BeachBody for releasing this!"
5790,1,GRAND,"I watched the movie on Cartoon Network about two years ago. It's an excellent movie, I tell you. It's facinating!!! ^_^I loved the characters and their personalities. I seriously loved the art designs animation. It brings out the true life of the movie. In my opinion, this DVD is great! You should get this DVD and soon. It ROCKS! ^_^!"
5812,1,Not a good Kindle edition,"Unfortunately, this Kindle version is missing almost all of the illustrations, which are an integral part of the book. And the poetry is not formatted correctly and is in red on my iPad Kindle.Through the Looking Glass [Kindle Edition] by BLTC is the one you want."
5834,1,Quality could be better,It was dark and cloudy at times. Not the greatest buy. I am very disappointed. Can I return for a refund?
5919,1,fornication,"same old story. immorality. fornication between rick and the chick. and what happened after this? bergomeister went and committed adultery and her children suffered for it. don't think satan has only been around since the beatles. he's been plying his trade for millennia. who paid to see it? rotten americans. they gratified their lust, and the movie made money. and the tale kept spinnin'. satan's got a real racket. bergomeister and bogey fell for his tricks and are you know where now. they were satan's pawns, just like america is. love of money, by mr. warnermeister, is the root of all evil. corrupt movie used by seducing spirits (demons) to lead the world to hell."
5947,1,Pretty but lame,"This unit performs well while it lasts, but mine only lasted a few months when using with care. I do not jog. The unit stayed in my car the whole time. It just stopped working."
6071,1,Didn't know it was so noisy.,"It does a good job cooling down the laptop but I use it sparingly because it's so noisy. I don't know what its dB rating is but it's certainly not like a typical PC fan. It's like five times louder than a typical PC fan. If there's a different chill pad that's quieter, I'd get one."
6087,1,Plastic and cheap,"I received a different chill pad than the one pictured. It is a very undurable plastic, and one of the fans is already making noise after 3 weeks. It does not cool well on a flat surface such as a desk, so the only useful purpose is if you have it on your lap. You get what you pay for I suppose, but I would not suggest it if you have te extra $20."
6092,1,FreeSpeak 250 - Not That Great,"I was really looking forward to the Bluetooth Wireless experience; however, the Jabra FreeSpeak BT250 is not all that great. With regular usage for three months with my Sony Ericsson T637, I found: a very short battery life, mediocre reception, and a shorter roaming range from my phone {suppose to be able to move 30 feet away from your phone, I couldn't get it to work beyond 7 feet}. Additionally, people would often tell me that they heard excessive static in the background and that it was hard to hear me.This technology could be great, but its a little overrated right now with the cell phone accessories that are currently available. I have had good luck with previous Jabra products and this one, the FreeSpeak, is just disappointing. Maybe I will try this again in a few years. For now, it's back to the ""wired"" headset."

6208,1,Junk-Save Your Money,This player was a Christmas gift that was opened Christmas morning. The player had a bunch of screws or something rolling around inside the sealed player when we took it out of the box. There was a larger component rolling around inside the player also. Must have been where the screws came from. We still tried out the player hoping that we would not have an electrical blow-out when we plugged it in because of the components rolling around inside the player. It seemed to work ok. We returned it for a full refund.This item was very cheaply made and for the money they are asking for it it is not worth it. Do not go by the pictures because the one I received did not look like the same wood color. And thats because it is not real wood.I am not sure where this was made but it is typical of the junk that is being made in China these days. When I was a kid this kind of junk was being made in Japan.My advice...stay away.
6219,1,What a stupid movie!,This was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Why did they have to make a movie about a geeky kid trying to get a guy hired to go look for his old girlfriend. I think that's a dumb idea. Cameron Diaz is pretty hot in this movie but the whole movie is just plain dumb. When I first saw this movie in the theater I thought it was allright but now that I watched it so many times on video it has gotten boring and stupid. If you want to see a movie that's more funnier go rent American Pie that movie's hilarious. Stay far away from this movie it's dumb!
6303,1,Poorly organized and the butterthlies is a terrible choice.,This book is definitely a poor read. I got It because I thought the second edition would be a better read. These guys need to learn how to write and organize their thoughts better. There are other books that I'll buy over this one. The trick is to make it simple and have good flow; even the choice for the website (butter*) sucks. This review comes from a guy majoring in computer science.
6347,1,Blu Ray ok movie was not,This is for children with imagination. I watched this 30 times as a kid and loved it. I have no idea why its pretty simple and bad. Kids may still sit through it.
6372,1,Not really...,"I loved the princess bride. I liked the movie and I own the book. I loved the book so much I got it on my kindle too. But, being the idiot that I am, I didn't look at the authors name. So I started reading it and found this guys biography. Well fine, I thought, just a little authors note, so I just skipped past it. I read on. Suddenly I found an APOLOGY for the little notes found in the parentheses. I knew the original. I knew these notes were more then authors note, it is this guys personal biography written into the story! I think it absolutely ruins the story. The only reason I gave it 2 stars is because it is such a great story."
6445,1,Uncomfortable,I was disappointed with this purchase. I had a neck-bone pillow for several years that was just wonderful. Unfortunately I left it at a hotel and wanted a replacement. This one was much wider at the spot where you would place you neck. The additional height made this pillow very uncomfortable to say the least. I would not recommend this to anyone. Wish I returned this the first day I got it.
6514,1,hope for the stupid,"This book illustrates that if someone as stupid as Nicholas Darvas can make money in the stock market so can you.After all, it took this guy several years after he began trading to figure out what the Dow Jones Industrial Average was.Essentially, Darvas used fundamental analysis in conjunction with""stocks that were moving"" and placed trailing stops behind them. Darvas never shorts a stock. The concept would probably be too taxing for his brain.Not a bad system. It supposedly worked for him.In my opinion,their are a few, and only a few, good ideas which can be gleaned from this essentially worthless book."
6584,1,Misleading Title,"The description of the book ""illustrate them with 150 inspired examples"" is very misleading. The author talked about 150 riffs. You are supposed find the actual riff tabs somewhere else. After buying this book, you may need to buy another 100 books to find the 150 riffs the author discussed about. Skip this book."
6590,1,Grossly Outdated Material,"While this may have been a very good book in 1979, the, avian information gained over the last 20 years makes these older book obsolete, if not down right dangerous. These older books should remain out of print. I would recommend a more recent publication including periodicals such as ""Bird Talk"" magazine with up to the minute articles from today's (1999) experts. I've kept African Grey's for almost 10 years now."
6610,1,"Egregiously cheap, nasty, and overpriced edition of great book","This, the Wilder Publications edition of The Everlasting Man, is an egregiously cheap and nasty edition of a great book. It is printed on oversize pages with very narrow margins in an apparent effort to reduce printing costs to a minimum. Overall, the production quality is on a par with an instruction manual that might come with a no-name hair dryer or computer part from East Asia, or, actually my first thought was off-brand Dungeons & Dragons extension materials circa 1976. You will be much happier with the Ignatius Press edition for only $1.00 more, which is the one I would have gone for had it been easier to locate on Amazon. I plan to return this and get the Ignatius Press version instead, or possibly Volume 2 of the Collected Works."
6611,1,Misleading book,"This seems to be a converted thesis to book, not the worst job but certainly without much effort. I'm not surprised its not in stock."
6634,1,"ok, but there is a better LEX/YACC book","To keep it simple, the book ""Introduction to Compiler Construction in UNIX"" introduces and explains LEX/YACC far better than this book. It uses a more realistic example and shows the error handling in more detail. This book is ok for a quick intro, but for a 'real"" user, refer to the book I mentioned above."
6665,1,Publisher's Dream,"It is fairly obvious that the publisher is going to milk this series for all its worth.There are indications that a number of writers/editors may be involved with writing for the series.Nothing at all wrong with this, if you enjoy the kind of pulp output developed in the 40's and 50's and carried through to this series.My Advice: Wait until you see the Blockbuster Promotion which says that this is the last one: finally the Last Battle will be fought and...have some sort of result, which will spawn the next series.And the publishers will enjoy your moneyShannon O'Hara"
6756,1,SHM CD version of Trilogy,"This review speaks only to the quality of the ultra expensive, Japanese SHM CD version of Trilogy. Look for another version of this c.d.. The hiss that is present during and between songs is unbelievable. It is as bad as listening to an old cassette tape. I am blessed to own the MFSL version which I assume is still the gold standard of this c.d..I purchased this edition on a lark because it was touted that ""you won't believe it's the same c.d."". Well, they were right but for the wrong reason. This is a 10 star title that deserves better."
6821,1,"DW may be better than MS-FrontPage, but ....","I read somewhere that DreamWeaver was released to compete against Microsoft's FrontPage 97-98.Apparently the author was not aware of this fact, or else he would have done his homework and explore the POWER of DreamWeaver.I am working on a GeoCities web page dedicated to some ""tricks"" not covered in this book (or anywhere else). If anyone has any questions, requests, or comments, PLEASE email me. I'm here to help."
6826,1,Possibly the worst book ever about motorcycling,"The author may be a great guy but this book is just plain awful. I've read almost every book published on touring and this thing is the worst hands down. If you need to read a ""motorcycle"" book to know it's hot in Texas, Motel 6 has noisy air conditioners, chicken fried steak can be nauseating - and be told this in EVERY FREAKING CHAPTER!, than you may be able to get through his book. I gave up halfway through when the ""poetry"" showed up, it's hard to believe a grown man could write such drivel. I don't think I've ever had a more visceral dislike of a book than I experienced toward this one."
6833,1,Pfaltzgraff Dinnerware Set,"One Plate already cracked. I ordered round Serving Bowl, to large! Coffee Mugs to big!"
6869,1,Arabian Prince bombs on his comeback CD...,"I got this CD not too long ago, I expected songs similar to the album 'Brother Arab', but Arabian Prince changed up his style. Now he used slow synthed strings, and more sexual lyrics then before. He found another rapper named Side Show to help back him up, probably because Arabian Prince wasn't use to this kind of rap style. The album had the gangsta beat with too much emphasis on b-tches and f----n. There are maybe three tracks that are enjoyable to listen to, but the other ones sound to repetitive or just too slow. The highlight of the album is the song ""Underworld"" when Arabian Prince brings back a fast tempo song about the ghetto. The best slow-synth song would be ""Ho's 2 Bozack"". A.Prince brings a lot of the NWA's production crew to make the album. I don't have the import version of this album, but i think there are maybe one or two bonus songs."
6887,1,Worst mop ever!,It doesn't pick up the grime just moves it around...you think you get quality when buying a trusted name such as Mr. Clean. I can't believe this is on shelves...
6891,1,The Psychology of Winning,"Your ad made it look like I was purchasing the actual book, The Psychology of Winning.What you sent me was some cheap workbook that was of absolutely NO use to me. I was extremely disappointed"
6895,1,Who's the Dummy?,"I bought this book out of curiosity rather than as a teaching guide as I already play the piano to grade 8 (ABRSM).I wish I had not bothered and kept my 14.99. The book is written by a dummy for dummies or more aptly by a moron for morons. The incessant attempt at humour is offputting from the start and the content is disjointed and lacks any conceptual ideas of what music and the piano is really about.The CD accompanying the book is a joke, and if this is an example of the author's musical skill I shudder to think what else he has produced. The irritating keyboard rhythms and styles are a throw back to the Bontempi school of music.IMO this book is pants and is not worthy to carry the name Piano in its title. Save your money and don't buy it, there are lots of other very good ""easy books"" on teaching beginners the piano."
6898,1,Silly and Too Dramatic,"I love the other films Peter Jackson has made. The best is Heavenly Creatures, if you have not seen this movie your missing out! I thought this movie was overly dramatic and to long. Had many unbeliveable moments and was so far fetched! The only cool thing about it was the natives, they were freaky."
6901,1,King Kong & Bionic Woman,"Close to 4.30 hours long in which more than half of it were entirely useless and have no relevance to the movie specifically that bombastic CGI Lost World scene. The scenes defies logic and reality with all those acrobatic stunts of Naomi Watts by Kong even a solid unripe hard cucumber would end up mushy. It is totally incomprehensible that our heroine ended up with no bruises, no welts and unbroken bones. Another failed attempt to create a modern epic with an intended complete menu which ended up a spoiled meal."
7048,1,terrible,Why did I waste my time watching this movie? It was on the first page of popular picks. It was beyond bad.
7096,1,No balls... no helmets... just pads!,"Maxi pads that is! I saw a poster of these posers, and they tried to rip off the Casualties. In this Casualties poster I have, the band is standing all pissed off in a junk yard, in the Simple Rip-Off, they stood tryin to look cool in an abandoned lot(i bet they had security to protect their rich boy asses!) I hate posers, and i am tired of rippin off the Casualties and other true punk bands. 0 stars please!!!"
7152,1,DISAPPOINTING,"Looked good out of the box. However, upon first use, the yellow handled driver broke. The plastic handle cracked while trying to loosen a nut. Then, the 1/4 inch adapter broke while using the ratchet inside the 13mm socket.Not a durable set of hardware to say the least."
7197,1,torture!!,"This book is painful to read because you are hosted by a crotchety old man who is annoyed by life and loves no one except his dog. He meets people who he finds boring and visits places that insult him and tells you about all of the lousy things that happen to him and then reminds you of all of the good things that have disappeared about America. If you love Steinbeck don't read this book because perhaps you are meeting the real man and you will feel different about his other beautiful books. If you don't know Steinbeck and want to, try Pastures of Heaven or Cannery Row. Those books are how you want to remember him by, and not by this last, wheezing gasp."
7315,1,Piece of junk,"Helloween almost was destroyed forever after this turkey, who flopped simpkly because it really was that bad. The band tried to ""innovate"", adding a lot of keyboards, horns and whatever, in a mixture of poorly written songs that nobody will ever remember, and that were scrapped forever from their live set. AS a result, singer Michael Kiske and drummer Ingo Schwichtenberg were fired (for differente reasons), the band lost their contract with EMI and had to start all over agains, never totally recovered from guitarrist Kai Hansen's loss."
7345,1,Yawn!,"I thought the plot really dragged in this sappy, semi-scary film about a young women who's frightened of hospitals, but has to go into one to rescue her husband. Of course, in conquering her fears she saves his life, blah, blah, blah. Her husband, meanwhile, discovers that four of the nurses are blood-drinking lesbians in one of the most blatantly stupid scenes in the entire film. Clearly, somebody on the production staff must have realized that this film was a dud and that perhaps by adding a completely unimaginative girl/girl/girl/girl encounter they could somehow save it. But alas, this film is one patient that was beyond saving."
7410,1,Loose brains,"Watch the documentary that was aired on the National Geo or Discovery channel of experts looking into the claims made in this video and they explain it all and conclude that the planes brought it down. But you arm-chair experts know more, bull crap.The floors of the towers were made of concrete, which were VERY heavy, just a few weakened steal beams as seen on the news is all it would take. The weight of the upper floors on those beams caused the upper floors to come crashing down upon the floor that was hit and caused a domino effect of ever increasing weight that just smashed the towers.Use some brains people."
7543,1,Just so you know...,"Carlos is neither Mexican nor original. He doesn't want us to get offended by his empty racial jabs (which don't offend me), but I do take offense at his ripping off other, better comedians. It's not an easy thing to come up with material...well, good material anyway. Think of it like a song or a novel. If you wrote a terrific song, performed it at some club and then heard a crappier version of it, recorded by another band, on the radio wouldn't it bother you? Why is comedy any different? If you think it is, then by all means buy this hack's junk, but if you respect integrity don't support this jerk."
7567,1,Buy another router-unstable connections,"DI-624 router frequently disconnects itself from all computers, wired and wireless, attached to it. What's more, it will reboot and might take up to 5 minutes to establish a connection, which may happen in the middle of a download.D-link suggests that you downgrade the speed to 10Mb which will reduce files transfer speed in your network by a tenfold. But the issue is not resolve. Upgrading to new firmware (2.50)won't resolve the issue either. Furthermore, replacing the network card for a new one won't resolve the issue.If you want to spend many hours fussing, calling & e-mailing tech support and rebooting a router and reconfiguring it until you are red in the face....go for it..."
7593,1,Card should have quit while he was ahead !,He misses the mark on almost all counts. The charecterization sucks and the plot *feels* manufactured. The growth of Ender Wiggin from a child to the speaker for the dead has been dealt with beautifuly in his earlier books but the entwining of ALL threads into this story is frankly unacceptable.In fact I even see traces of Alvin in Children of ..
7597,1,Things kind of got crazy...,...and the thread of the story seems to just run further away from the original concepts. Wasn't thrilled with the new ideas expressed in it and wouldn't recommend it as a good read.
7599,1,"I didn't get ""it""","I like Adam Sandler, but I didn't like or ""get"" this movie's point at all. Forewarning: This is not Sandler's typical role. I'm all for him branching out into different styles and I think he's quite capable, except I had a very hard time getting past that because of all the weirdness in this film.The opening sequence is just bizarre and you wonder throughout the entire film what the point of the instrument is. The relationship between Sandler and his love interest is equally bizarre. This has DEFINITELY an indie type of film feel, but does not come close to ONE HOUR PHOTO, which I think also has the same type of feel, yet is far superior. This movie is disturbing at times and confusing at others. I felt like I was doing drugs during this movie (which I can assure you I was not). The ending is a ""Huh?"""
7605,1,"Sad, sad, movie","I love quirky and insightful movies. I watch THE USUAL SUSPECTS, SPANISH PRISONER, GLEN GARY GLENROSS, and all the rest and enjoy them over and over, relishing in the twists and turns and messages that these movies dispense. But, I'm not going to slap kudos on PUNCH DRUNK LOVE. This move is as disturbing as it is sad. The violence is not enjoyable. It was nothing like the trailers portrayed it to be and I will not recommend it to anyone."
7620,1,a million thumbs down,"I only gave this movie one star because there wasn't an option for NEGATIVE 5 stars, but since I did give it one star that star goes to the pseudo 'special effects' (split screen, going backwards, speeding up) which is the only plus about the move. The rest of it tanked, big time. The plot was numb, the characters numb, the acting from some seemingly talented young hot stars was numb. Overall, this movie made my brain go numb. The voice overs were nauseating! Yeah all those things happen to teens in college, but they went a little overboard.It was really bad and I didn't realize it was a Sundance movie, otherwise I would have been a little more prepared.The only treat was looking at the cute gay guy named Paul. Shannon Sossamon was the only stand out 'performance' if there had to be one.DO NOT BUY OR RENT THIS MOVIE...!"
7637,1,"the movie is great, but the two on dvd i received are NOT coded for the USA!!!","this is suppose to be a multi-national, coded dvd, but 2 for 2 were rejected by my new dvd player. i then placed both into my lap-top and a message displayed that 2/5 codes worked while 3 were inactive (USA, being 1/3 inactive codes). so, don't purchase this dvd unless you watch it on your computer online. HOWEEVER, the movie is excellent!!! it is totally clean, comical, with some drama, romance, and warmth of humanity. so i have cept one of the 'not coded for the USA' copies for my laptop, because i cannot get it anyother way apparently. NOT EVEN FROM AMAZON!"
7748,1,Big Disappointment,"Nice gimmick, but lousy story. The director is in love with the way he's telling this mediocre story and that sustains the movie for the first thirty minutes, but then tedium sets in. I'm glad he tried so hard to do something different, and that may make the movie worth seeing (ok, it's worth seeing briefly for being unique, but you'll get bored with it pretty quickly so have another movie handy to put in when this one starts putting you to sleep). There is mild fun in trying to piece all the elements together, but once you do there isn't anything interesting going on. People are giving this movie too much credit for telling its story from both the beginning and the end at the same time with an actual ending somewhere in the middle, and aren't giving it enough criticism for being just a simple minded and uninteresting story to begin with."
7765,1,The Hours,"I do not have much to say about movie ""The Hours"". All I will say is that I wasted an hour of my life on watching it in theaters. This movie is short, dull, boring, and its about deeply trouble lesbians. The critics out there must be crazy! They are hailing this movie as best picture of the year! Give me a break! It shocks me to hear that this dull movie has actually been nominated for nine Academy Awards! This movie is terrible. I do NOT recommend you watch it."
7923,1,"Nothing special here, move along","Many things in the movie do not connect. A lot of things in the beginning have absolutely nothing to do with the outcome at the end. If you're going to place events in a movie, then place them there for a reason!The story is done in a way that tries to make the movie special, but it turns out to be just another ""Invasion of the Body Snatchers"" type of movie. This is good to watch one time, but after that you won't want to watch it over and over again. Spend your money on something else."
7924,1,Disappointing,"This movie could have been so much better. It started out fairly well but just didn't hold together after the initial introduction. The movie lost me completely in the bathroom scene. You've got a monster trapped in the toilet, but that toothpick on the floor is out of your reach, and you need it so badly that you let the monster out to get it? You have to ask yourself, ""What's WRONG with this person?""Morgan Freeman's performance in this movie was also a big disappointment. He's such a talented actor, but here he seems to be just going through the motions. His character just falls flat. And as noted in an earlier review, the hair and eyebrows make him look silly and cartoonish.No big surprises in the final battle sequence. You pretty much know by this point who the two sides are going to be. But that last little bit after the fight - whose idea was that? I just wanted to shout at the television, ""What? NO! That CAN'T be the end!"" What a let-down."
7929,1,"Recipe for disaster...er, Dreamcatcher","Stand By Me, Men in Black, Independence Day, Outbreak, What Dreams May Come, the segment of Creepshow with fast-reproducing alien fungus, any Toxic Avenger movie, Deliverance, Forrest Gump.Frappe' 'em all together in a blender and strain away most of the entertainment value and plot line conclusions. Add a dash of poor acting and cheesey, unconvincing dialogue. Garnish with special effects.Voila, you've created Dreamcatcher. Watch and TRY to enjoy, though it's doubtful you will."
7946,1,AAHHH!!! (as in suprise and/or alarm),"me and my fellow cohorts thought we'd find a new way to torture ourselves via the medium of motion picture, or ""talkies"" as i perfer to call them. i started it all with ""head"" starring the monkeys, and thought it best i end the torture 3 or so weeks later, after such masterpieces as ""battlefield earth"", ""kazaam"", and ""santa with muscles"", by renting ""da hip hop witch""(check the reviews on that, and i think his grudge against me is still in effect). but the pain was far from over after we found this ""doozy"".why was this movie even made? here's all i have to say about the movie.1-Gene Siskel called it one of the worst movies of the year... and then died later that year(possibly from the movie, we can't be sure...more tests)2-maximum of 1,000 words, hrmm, i could have done it in two: Diaper Gravy."
7986,1,Dark and depressing,This book started out a little depressing and went completely downhill. Likely I was not in the mood to read about the tragedies which occur in this novel but I did not enjoy this read.
8049,1,still searching,is it possible to buy the original theatrical version of blade runner on dvd without buying the 5 disc set????
8085,1,Doesn't Matter,The first 2/3 of this movie are spent developing the characters of Liu Xing and Prof Reiser and then all the strongest character traits of those two people are just tossed aside for the ridiculous ending. That made the entire film a complete waste of time. You're left wondering what moron wrote that idiotic ending and why. Anyone with a shred of intellect isn't going to be moved by this except maybe to anger at having squandered 90 minutes on it. It could have been a decent movie. It did have a really cheap quality about it as you never see ANY other students at the school.
8109,1,sucks,overrated fan. just go to lowes or home depot and save money and get something you can return in person.
8164,1,&#65533;I Am Not Amused&#65533;,"Watching The Gold Rush, I understand why Chaplin had trouble achieving a breakthrough in Britain. The humour in the film is very unsophisticated, at times even ridiculous. Chaplin has had 4 or 5 ideas for 'funny' situations, and has then tried to link them together to a film. A few of the situations are a bit funny, but the film as a whole is not funny at all."
8211,1,Devil Girl * a very Bad copy,"This isn't really a review of the movie but rather a review of the video sent out. My copy was so bad (just simply too dark) I could not see any the player in the scene. I would guess it just over copied, as besides dark hard edges in the movie (like walls of a building) were wavy. I returned the DVD and got a full refund. I will continue looking for a better copy."
8295,1,Cornwell can do better,"I was reading through some of the reader reviews and one reviewer called Marino the most ""put together"" character in the book and I realized with a start that this was true! How unexpected that this overeating, cigarette-smoking, tough and prejudiced cop would be the one to stay grounded, while ""Bang Bang"" Lucy struggles to stay balanced and Kay struggles to find peace and people that aren't out to get her. Problem is, I buy the Scarpetta books to read about Kay and her WORK, not the emotional stuff, and not to see how 90's Marino is becoming. Great forensics, as always, but a mess of emotions, a mess of a plot, and a silly ending that was just too abrupt."
8417,1,Terrible toffee,The toffee tasted like butterfinger bars... ok...if that is what one thinks toffee should taste like.. Very underwhelming.Dissapointed and will not buy this brand again
8419,1,Not famous for good reasons.,Three chapters on doing laundry. 30 chapters on trying to get a story published. Stupid ending. Not worth the while.
8444,1,Worthless!,"This book is 50% old exams (old, and current exams are available for free on the USPTO website) and 50% snippets from the MPEP (also available for free on the USPTO). The snippets are have plenty of errors (both typos and in content), its outdated, and provides almost no useful information.It provides only the highest level of overview that doesn't come close to anything that will help you pass the patent bar. If you don't want to spring for the expensive study aids and think this is a cheap way to get some help, you're going to be very disappointed. You're much better off slugging your way through the old exams and MPEP on your own. If you write down the first sentence in every major section of the MPEP, you've just about wrote this book."
8471,1,Doesn't Hit The Mark,"I have seen quite a few productions of COMPANY including the original on Broadway. Unfortunately, this one doesn't come close to hitting the mark. In fact, it's way off. If the director were trying, once again, to be innovative by imposing his concept for SWEENY TODD onto COMPANY it doesn't work. ANOTHER HUNDRED PEOPLE is perhaps a good example how this fails. Were the singer and the musicians really together? I heard not. It's a tough song and this singer couldn't keep up. Who could be better than Beth Howland anyway (grin). And unless my CD player is failing, a lot of the times the singers sounded quite flat.What surprises me the most is that Sondheim would sanction this. And the weird thing for me is that I enjoyed SWEENY TODD, directed by the same John Doyle."
8480,1,"Loud, Bright, High Action! And Borrrrring","Amazing how so much action, noise, pulsing rock music and lively young actors can add up to such a dull movie. I rated it one star because Amazon won't allow Zero stars. This one is unwatchable, literally. Not even laughable so you can't sit there and mock it. It is just boring and dull. Rent anything else at all - you're sure to like it better."
8511,1,A Deflating Turn of Events,"What began as an interesting novel and journeyed into an interesting form of describing humanity and some of our worst shortcomings, ended without any of the characters transforming into something new and preferably better. I felt cheated by how this story ended and refuse to believe that all of humanity is as hopeless, narrow-minded and self destructive as what was represented by the main character, Soledad."
8531,1,not so hotsie,"This screenplay shows the authors have writing talent, but that it is not very developed yet. William Goldman helped write this screenplay, and even HE didn't think it was that great a screenplay (as he says in ""Premiere"" magazine). I know it won Oscars for the writers, but then Sylvester Stallone was once nominated for a best-acting Oscar...what does that tell you about the award? I think this screenplay showed promise, and I hope the writers try to develop their skill further, so that one day they may write a good screenplay. But winning an Oscar, they may think they don't need to improve, and that would be bad for them and movie audiences, both."
8587,1,bulky,The blade is good but the huge handle makes it hard to use. Someone with small hands would find this very unweildy. I bought this to replace an old peeler of similar design but with just a simple metal handle. I shall be going back to using that.
8592,1,My Least Favorite Orson Scott Card Book,"This was my least favorite Orson Scott Card book to date, by far. I've read all the Ender's Series, the Shadow series up to the end of Shadow Puppets, and the Empire series.I could barely finish this book; it grated me. If it were a movie, only 40 minutes of 4 hours was any good. The only reason I finished it was b/c it's essential to understand the next book in the series.-Finished on 2012-08-27 (116,804 words in 7 days; 16,686 wpd)."
8629,1,Not too tempting to play again,"The only reason I got this album is because that beautiful song, ""Bittersweet"" isn't available anywhere but on this import. The rest of the songs are a screechfest of constant high-pitched singing, and after 4 songs of the same, my nerves started to fray. Some of the other stuff is too Goth to be likable for my tastes.To be fair, ""The Heart of Everything,"" their other album, is superior to this one. I enjoy hearing that one often.All in all, I instantly imagined Within Temptation to be the perfect music vehicle for any of Stephanie Meyer's vampire romances."
8690,1,Doesn't open everything,"I love OXO products for the most part but this product just is not well designed. It does open larger jars but it is clumsy and difficult to use. My husband and I have arthritis and I was hoping this opener would open twist off soda or water bottles that always seem to give us trouble. The opening is way too big to accomplish that so, back it went to the supermarket. I had hopes this OXO product could solve our bottle opening problem but since it doesn't, I am rating this only one star."
8721,1,Arrived in poor condition,"I purchased the St. Joseph home sale kit for a friend who has been struggling to sell her house. It wasn't an expensive gift but it was a gift nonetheless. However, the kit was shipped in an ordinary padded envelope and its little cardboard box didn't survive the rigors of the postal service. It was dented and smashed. In addition, the cardboard packaging looked like it had been exposed to moisture, it was slightly puffed in areas and looked old and used. Overall the kit that I received was not in gift-giving condition although the contents were unharmed. It was very disappointing."
8736,1,YeePee...PORN with a PLOT ! ! !,"*BASIC INSTINCT: Unrated Director's Cut*Wow, I don't remember this movie being so pornographic. I guess the Director's Cut, with the extra 5 minutes, is nothing more than extra porn. I remember it's what made Sharon Stone so popular? This would have made her a legend if it was released this way. From graphic oral sex(Michael on Sharon) to a near rape scene, this movie is just too much for me. The main story is great, with a great twist for an ending(or non-twist, depending on how you look at it) however, the graphic sex-scenes are just not neccessary and are way too overboard(I can't help but wonder if Sharon Stone and Michael Douglas are still proud of their work on this film?).Go ahead and call me prude, but I cannot recommend this filthy trash."
8741,1,Learn how to make your own reeds.,"I played the bassoon in high school and purchased Jones reeds from a local music shop. 1 of 10 reeds I purchased were made properly. Not only did I spend a lot of money buying bad reeds, but it became frustrating playing the bassoon. I later found a professional bassoonist who provided me with handmade reeds and the majority of the issues w/ intonation I had were eliminated.These reeds are fine - I suppose- while you're learning the notes on a bassoon, but that's about it."
8799,1,Not an iota of authenticity,"If you are looking for a Yoga, Ballet and yes, even booty-licious workout, I recommend you buy three different workouts instead of YBB. Yogis are literally rolling over in their graves at these ladies. This is so typical nowadays, to find irreverence in everything. I would suggest renting this before buying. I rented and am so glad I did. My eyes were rolling the whole time and many of the cardio ""booty"" workouts are just awful--literally ridiculous. The changes they make to moves and the speed they start at in the intro video might actually injure someone less limber. There are way better videos out there, for less money too--these ladies just have better marketing behind them."
8806,1,disappointment,"I am a big Randy Neuman fan, but did not like this CD. The one song I bought it for was sung by someone else, not Randy, and 99% of the songs on it were biblical, like for a church service, and others were from the stage."
8904,1,Piece of Junk,"...the head twists off if you apply even the smallest amount of presure. On top of that, the soap pours out when the head twists off, because this is where you fill the dispenser."
8918,1,strangely disappointing,"Perhaps I shouldn't have expected much from such an inexpensive item, but right off the bat it seemed off-kilter somehow: the screw tended to go at an angle into the cork, making it hard to withdraw and more likely to break. I haven't had extensive experience with corkscrews; still, this one seems unnecessarily, even dangerously, sharp to me. There's a little round collar on the top that's supposed to keep the screw from wiggling around and it pops out of its socket a lot. The idea's a good one - the easy-to-grip parts and the size and so forth - but it doesn't seem to work well in practice. I've been struggling along with this for almost a year, but I think I'll try one of the wine waiter corkscrews now."
9040,1,A complete waste of time,"This is a terrible book. What little it does tell you, it repeats over and over and over and over... The tiny amount of information to be gleaned from this amateur attempt at insight into female sexuality could have been paraphrased in three sentences. 1) Don't be afraid of asking for what you want. 2) Sex is better when the woman has orgasmed first and 3) You deserve it! Get a life women and figure it out on your own."
9107,1,Sound Health Sound Wealth,"This book is another self-help book. I enjoyed the book HOWEVER, IT LOST SOME CREDIBILITY WHEN I read the last sentenced, in the first paragraph of page 171 of Chapter Six, The Principle of Sound and Light. It reads:""In the physical world of matter, Sound precedes Light, as we know from hearing the thunder before we see the lightning in a storm. *****Maybe, I am confused, but, I see lightning FIRST and start the ONE ONE THOUSAND count down to hear the thunder and determine how far away the storm is."
9123,1,Motor loud and quit working,"Just after my warranty expired, the motor quit working. I was thinking that spending this much for an ice cream freezer would mean it would last a long time. Not so! Everything is in good condition except the motor. Very dissatisfied"
9162,1,Not quite up to OXO standards,"I wanted to wait to give this some usage before reviewing. Now that we have used it for six months, we have ordered a replacement. It works well, but now has a nice crop of rust. When it comes to can openers and being around industrial openers for decades, I was surprised by how quickly this one rusted. When washed, we hand dry them, so there is a design element that allows this to retain some moisture in the cutting mechanism. Sadly, there is no way to save it."
9175,1,A cheap novel with some insights,This cheaply constructed story was engrossing but so full of self-absorbance and self-hatred and so pointless...A major disappointment and a sellout
9247,1,"Excellent music, horrible mastering","The cd contains the a remastered edition of the original album. I don't know what the engineers had in mind, but the remastered edition makes my ears bleed. The sound volume has been boosted to a way too high volume and results in completely distorted music. Some of the songs are totally unlistenable. Sure, the loudness of the original album is much less than most current releases, but this is no excuse to change that.To conclude: the cd is no remastered edition, but a mismastered edition of this great album."
9262,1,A real disappointment,I purchased this DVD in the hopes that I would be seeing the original CINEMASCOPE print of this sci-fi classic. Sadly the only frames in Cinemascope are the opening credits. The rest of this glorious film has been chopped up to accommodate a standard format. What a loss!
9295,1,Very Weak Study Guide,"I have been advised by those who help others prepare for the CSET that this is not a good study guide. So much information and so overwhelming and not all the answers are accurate.I studied the books What your 6-8th grader needs to know.....I did that for math, geography, ca history etc etc and passed the CSET on the first try. I am not young..almost 50."
9380,1,Can't believe I bought this,"One word for this cd: HORRIBLE. I tried to listen to this four times and hated it more with each play. I can't begin to tell you how awful this cd is. I was reading the 5 star reviews on here with bewilderment. Then one of these reviews calls this 'the anti- Beatles' and this person goes on to say the Beatles are hated. It makes sense now. If you hate great music, you'll love this cd. If you love great music, you'll hate this cd."
9403,1,truly awful transaltion!,"Now, regarding the Quran and other scriptures, you know from the start it's going to be a slow read. Writers like Mohammed, St Paul, and others were not word-savvy and couldn't make a gripping read like Ian Fleming, JK Rowling, or Jean Auel. Nor did they care: their mission was to ""speak God's word"" not to entertain their converts.Nevertheless, when I picked up this book, I soon realized that even Mohammed was better with words than this. He was, after all, an Arab, and the Arabs has long cherished the word as art (hence their beautiful calligraphy and poetry). But this book was beyond dry. Even though I was prepared for repetitious narrative, like that in the Bible, I seriously felt like I was reading a telephone book. It totally killed my appreciation for the book, even though I love studying the religous classics. I immediately dropped it and went for a better translation."
9419,1,Mr. Dibbell could use a life....,"""My Tiny Life"" about sums it up. Julian Dibble is, literally, what the British term ""a wanker."" He brings navel gazing to an exhaulted pinnacle. He starts his book well, discussing the strange interactions between real life (RL) and virtual life as experienced on MUDs and MOOs (VL). He almost captures your imagination, then loses it all in a prolix tale of his adventures in masturbation, both real and virtual. In part, the book reads like his paeon of love to the (current) woman he has trouble making a committment to. In part, it's a waltz through the lives of people who are not yet ready to engage in real life and instead are tooling around virtual reality trying to get a grip on, primarily, their sexuality. While this book will surely appeal to those who recognize themselves in it, it's actually rather repellant to those who have been there, done that, then grew up."
9486,1,1001 Spoilers,"If you hate reading spoilers, don't read about any movie in this book unless you've seen it already. Duralde gives away FAR too much in his synopses, which are in my opinion completely unnecessary anyway. It is his commentaries that are the interesting element here, and motivate us to see the films. Why he chose to reveal plot turns, and thus needlessly deflate our enjoyment of the films is beyond me."
9591,1,"Two units, two failures","I'd be happy with this cleaner if only it didn't cease to function. The first lasted under three weeks of thrice-weekly use. The seller replaced the unit and the replacement lasted about 6 months.The failure mode is like this: the unit works normally for a period of time between say 1 second and 2 minutes. Then 5 is added to the timer several times until the value on the display is over 20 and the unit switches itself off. So it seems like the controller is going crazy. No matter, the cleaner is useless to me."
9657,1,Didn't get to watch it.,"We weren't able to watch it, because we don't have a 3-D T.V. I thought 3-D glasses would work. but they don't."
9713,1,Junk,"Quite the worst film I have ever seen in my 76 years!The inadequacy of the above rating system reminds me of the story about the old Danish professor who found himself forced to modify the usual marking system in order to do justice to the proficiency of his students. In the usual system the highest mark was 6, 4 was pass. He had to extend the system downwards to -23. I give this movie the mark -24."
9721,1,Absolutely Disappointing,"I have no problem with a group experimenting, being creative, or going in a different direction...but this CD is completely void of anything memorable.Silly, unfunny, incoherent, jumbled, uncreative...all would be words to describe this CD. I loved the first two releases from them, but it seems their creative energy has turned into some kind of mumbled, electronica pop with no soul.Critics love the single ""We Used To Be Friends"" and that should tell you something right there.Trendy hipsters might elevate this release to classic status because of their lack of objectivity and general willingness to go along with whatever's popular and cool - but anyone looking for a memorable, long lasting, quality CD should look elsewhere.I'm sorry but this CD garbage, truly disappointing considering how promising and good their first two releases were."
9740,1,Difficult to hold,"We have other cordless can openers in the past and this one really disappointed us. While this may be a really great can opener, it is difficult to hold while opening a can. We also found it to be very noisy. I would not recommend this product to and older person."
9744,1,Cordless can opener,Was not able to use after around 3 cans. Recharging was OK but the opener just did not have the torque to open larger numbers of cans.
9763,1,Great photos--flawed recipes,"My husband is a chef, I cook and bake often, and was even a personal chef. We've tried two of these recipes so far and neither have worked! One of them was completely off in the dough and couldn't possibly have worked and the other we are still working on. It's for a portion of a recipe that has toffee. We have resorted to finding another toffee recipe online and will try to make that and incorporate it in the recipe. It is very disappointing! I've tried this portion 3 times now with no luck. Thats just not right. Buy this book only for the photos and try to make them by using other recipes that you know and trust or use a reputable site with user reviews. We've ate at Trotters and it was good, but we've both had better meals for less money."
9804,1,Bad book!!,After reading good reviews and liking the idea of the story I just couldn't get into this book. I was really excited and was very disappointed! It was vague and just didn't flow. I tried and tried and couldn't get through half the book.
9900,1,Disappointing,"I was looking forward to read this acclaimed book but in honesty, was just disappointed by it. Not that the writing style isn't good, not that the story isn't interesting. Yes, as many critics say, the book touches on many topics of human personalities, flaws and qualities. But when they say ""touch on"", that's really all it is. If you are looking for insights, for inspiration in any of these topics, I think you are better off reading Herman Hesse. So much that it's clear to me that the level of awareness that Hemingway had was quite lower than that of Hesse. Where Hemingway saw that there was more to man than his action and thoughts, Hesse saw emotions, yearning and melancholy.Perhaps 50 years ago, with the level of consciousness society had, this was a good novel. But today, the main value of this book is the details of fishing at the time."
9933,1,A very tedious book,"I truly wanted to read The Pride, so much that I forced myself to get through half the novel before I abandoned it. Mr. Ford writes lovely prose and can turn a phrase. Unfortunately, this novel is bogged down with tedious character development and a plodding storyline. It takes the first hundred pages or so to get several characters to a decedent's memorial service. Then, the next 1/3 of the book is spent over a luncheon meeting. Before the lunchgoers had finished their meal, I was completely tired of them and their business deliberations. I had no interest in continuing."
9973,1,Horrible Machine and customer service,"After having this elliiptical trainer for several months I must say I am very dissapointed with this product and this company. After a month there was a problem with one of the pedals. I called the service line because it is under warranty and the company never answers calls. I was ""on hold"" waiting for the next availbale operator for over an hour. I finally decided to give up and leave a message and an operator did not get back to me two days! Finally after another week Merit did send a technician. The problem was fixed for about a month until the same problem reoccurred. I called Merit again, waited days for a call back, only to be told that my machine is no longer under warranty and would have to pay for all further repairs.This company has no customer service and their products are substandard."
10007,1,Missed the mark,"Best Tracks: Pound of Prevention, Jenny and the Tower, Just The Way That It WasThis was my second purchase of a Vance Gilbert album. His voice and style still shine on this album, but it left me saying 'ehh'. It's not terrible, it's just not his best effort. It, for the most part, just didn't speak to me.Maybe it's just where I am, or where Vance was...Maybe 2 and a half stars"
10071,1,Hawaii Video,The island scenes are nice but it is a boring video. You put it on to play while you work as background noise. They focus too long on beach scenes and water.
10091,1,Kindel Version,This is one of my favorite books but once again very disappointed with the Kindle version. Very poor job scanning and optimizing pictures. Any beginner photoshop student could have done a better job.
10198,1,Stick to the originals,"Come on...the voices are in the background and the music is in the front. It should be the other way around. I like it when they remix songs but I like the singer to sound like they recorded it that way, which of course they didn't since most of them are dead.Happy Holidays!"
10233,1,Not good. Not good at all.,"I used to be a huge fan of the Cardigans. I even liked Gran Turismo's darker direction. But this....this is nothing. It's completely uninspired, practically every song is in A minor, and the album as a whole is ridiculously slow and monotonous. This is the Cardigans, sans whimsy, charm, and unique composition. A shell of their former self."
10277,1,The day trip-hop died...,"People ordering this should know that Skye, the singer of the past Morcheeba albums, is not on this record. The two men who started the band got a new singer, who just isn't as special, and now the band sounds like a lot of other bands (unfortunately). With Skye gone they just don't stand out from the rest. :-("
10440,1,Breakaway is a lot better,"This album is almost completely different than Kelly's second C.D., for she seems to use a soulful style of singing on Thankful that she pretty much has abandoned on her followup album. There are (regrettably) few high-volume energetic tunes like ""Since U Been Gone"" on this album, with most of the songs being soft and relatively too simple. One of the exceptions is the hit ""Miss Independent"", the best track in my opinion. This tune has a unique background beat, soulful lyrics, and a loud, majestic chorus. It would seem that this debut album features a completely different side of Kelly than is on Breakaway, preferably the less desirable side. I wouldn't recommend this album also because it's not satisfyingly intricate, and has few likeable tracks.I recommend:Miss IndependentLowBeautiful DisasterYou Thought Wrong"
10540,1,make up??? oh my god!!!!,"this album makes me sick. if you think the cover is bad, wait till you hear the music!!! especially the food songs!!! this album appeared after (ugh) Can't Stop The Music and this is just plain sad. they should of just gone away!!! but no...they have to come back to a world that no longer likes disco, with a new IMAGE!!! the new image looks like a cross between a Shakespeare character and a pimp. and all that face paint!!! oh yeah... the music. 5'O clock in the morning is ok. but the rest??? blech! Big Mac? Jungle City? Diet? Fireman? Food Fight? i guess they lacked all the top-notch producers and went to writing their own songs. even if your a village people fan, don't get it. if you are looking for something really stupid and you need a laugh. go for it."
10545,1,Not actually terminated at K2,"I ordered these hoping that they would be terminated atK2 (Adventure Press)so I could listen to theMusic of a Sherpa Village. Imagine my disappointment to find they terminated right in my living room. I guess the 8 foot length should have been a tip-off. They do go well with myWalker Edison Everest Multilevel Component Stand, Clear/Silverstereo stand, though.Still, if you are a fan of K2, (Book of the Dead), Mountain (Best of) or related music (At Fillmore EastMountain Jam,Foggy Mountain Breakdown), you could do worse by plugging a 12,000-mile garden hose in one ear and hiring someone to actually terminate the other end at K2. That would sound worse and cost more."
10551,1,toooo much packaging!,I bought this product about a month ago and was really put off by the amount of unecessary packaging that comes with it. It's a huge box full of filler plastic- all for a little DVD game. The games were pretty fun but the packaging was a deterrance to that.
10595,1,Memorex DvD-RW did not work,My Canon DC100 would not write to these dvds. The disc came up as unreadable. I tried all three and was unsuccessful in recording or reading the disc on my Canon video camera.
10625,1,Please go to the next one...,"This was my first Linda Howard book and unfortunately, it may be my last. Open Season was very shallow in its story line. Characters jump into situations without much thought and the book seems to have been written on a whim."
10762,1,Gears strip on many systems,"My unit didn't hold up well at all. Makes a horrible grinding sound. Did some checking and learned this is a ""very common problem with this model"" and it's an issue they don't suggest you self-repair. I read that as a design flaw. The main drive gear that powers the fuser strips out. Can't get to it easily. Nice features but the copier gave out quickly."
10799,1,DJ CLUE (BOO),"DJ.CLUE has no clue of what is is doing. First off he is wack, no doubt about it, this is true. Second I think he could learn a thing or two from Tony Touch. He is real. I don't understand want the music world is going though right now but someone needs to get it together quick,fast and in a hurry because people can't keep listing to mess like this. If DJ Clue was in Iraq and he put out this kind of c.d he would have his hands cut off. To be honest he needs them to be cut off right now. Yes DJ Clue has made it into my wack list along with others."
10897,1,Book,"The book I ordered came quickly, and it was not expensive. However, the book was very old and musty smelling. BUT I didn't mind as it was such a good price! So far, I have had very good results in purchasing books via Amazon.com.Thanks,Jackie"
10976,1,Not great value but Word and Excel are great programs,What can anybody say about software for which there is no choice but to buy? Can't do without it - had to buy it. Therefore I think the deal could be better.
10979,1,Only has two blades,"I don't recommend this model. It only has two blades, compared to the kitchen Plus 2000 which has three blades and is more efficient. I've had a Kitchen Plus 2000 for a few years and love it. I went to buy a second one and got this one, not realizing the blade difference. Oops.. my mistake. I'm returning it and getting the better product."
10987,1,Problematic,"It's easy to mix the plaster, but hard to tell when the right time is to have the child put their hand in. It seemed to set either too slowly or too quickly. It's quite hard getting a 1 or 2 year old to press their hand into the plaster properly, but that's not the product's failure. One thing I must stress is that you make sure to let the plaster dry completely before putting the tin lid on. I put the lid on before it was completely cured and ended up with black mold growing on the underside of the lid.All in all, I find the moldable clay kits much easier to work with, less messy, and they give you more chances for a successful print."
10992,1,Crashes Too Often,"Although this package comes with several disks of print templates and a large, searchable list of clip art, it is not worth the money (even with rebates). It does not work reliably on the two machines I've tried it on. Both machines had all of the prerequisite software installed and working (Internet Explorer 6 and Outlook Express 6) before installing PIP Platinum AE.It still crashes and freezes way too often. I've learned to save every time I make even a minor edit knowing that I WILL have to restart the program and/or the computer. In addtion, all of the graphics included in the many greeting card templates (birthday, Mother's Day, etc) are blurry and look amateurish when printed.Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere for a print package."
11014,1,This was Cornwell's worst book.,"Ok, what's up, Patricia? Are you leaving room for yet another sequel...haven't you found out yet that your sequels usually fail. I was totally disappointed in this book altogether. I suppose killing Benton off was a way in which to introduce another lover (perhaps Lucy's new boss)? Perhaps Kay and Marino should just hook up and get it over with. In between making love, Kay could nag him to death. Cornwell's first few books were truly her best. We, as her fans, can only hope she goes back to that style of writing."
11082,1,"This trap is toy, and does not work at all","I puchased the trap, first it was dificullt to set it up and at the same time install tha bate on the tray. This trap has two sides for the animal to enter, and there is only one entrac emight catch the chicmunk, or mouse, the other dor, animal can enter and stand on the trap tray and eat the bate and go out without being cut.Problem: The trap is to short for the small animals to be cut, because the tail of the animal prevents the the trap door close properly, therfore the animal can scape the trap everytime. The trap should have been 13-14"" long to acommodate for the tail. I am sorry to purchase a toy rather then a trap. I waisted alot of nuts"
11131,1,What a disappointment!!!,"I was so excited to finally get the bucks to buy one of these gadjets. I run a daycare so mopping daily is a necessity! I thought this was an answered prayer. I should've went with Mom's advice and purchased the Hoover!!!Having already owned a Bissell vaccuum, and being extremely happy with that particular purchase, I thought I was making a wise decision in choosing the Bissell FlipIt over the Hoover Floor Mate. What a let down! It does clean well, if you want to take the whole day cleaning the floor! I could mop the old fashioned way much faster. I was so sure I was doing something wrong that I called the 800# to speak with a rep. After I answered his many questions - I finally asked him one. Is it SUPPOSED to work this way?, I asked. ""There will be some resistance"" was the reply. That's all I needed to know, I said.This baby's going back!"
11183,1,Warning: Do NOT read!,"""Tartuffe"" by Moliere is a feeble attempt at extrodinary literature. The writing itself is lacking in drama and power, and the development of the play through rhyme patterns fails to alleviate the torment of reading it. The reader must realize that at the time Moliere was penning this work, he was in debtor's prison. His clever incorporation of monarchial laud was his means of finding favor in the prince to possibly mitigate his sentence, as well as for him [Moliere] to raise enough to set bail. ""Tartuffe"" is a boring play satirizing Catholic religion and ignorant people who are duped by a wily man using God to deceive and rob a family who cannot see the true nature of Tartuffe. In fact, ""tartuffe"" is French for ""thief"". I seriously would not recommend reading this play, and know 11 other people who would agree."
11253,1,Just give us a sermon instead,"There are of course, several songs on this CD which are actually songs, i.e., tracks 2-7 and 9-10. But Lee Greenwood only wrote one of them, and it is the least melodic and the most hokey.Tracks 1 and 8 are just awful. ""Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, ugh!"" Puh-leeez. It's not even good music.Not to mention the fact that one track lists two freedoms of - speech, religion - and then two freedoms from - want and fear ... a complete butchering of the First Amendment.But what else is new in our hyper-patriotic, hyper-consumerist country?"
11273,1,The Beginning of the End,"The writing was on the wall by the time Peace and Love was released, but Hells Ditch, The Pogues' fifth album, signalled the end of an era. By this album there was little left of the raw vocal and musical energy and Celtic flair that made The Pogues so famous. Instead this album awkwardly explores a wide range of musical styles, and frontman Shane MacGowan sounds so bored and drunk that the music has to carry him through the entire album. In fact he was so distant from the band by this time--largely because of his drinking habit--that he only sang about half the songs on the album. (Not surprisingly, this is the last Pogues album with MacGowan as a band member.) The magic was clearly gone by this time, and they never got it back. Overall this is a decent album, but is a profound letdown by Pogues standards--hence the 2-star rating."
11289,1,Booring,I found this book to be exceedingly booring. I felt like I was reading someones facebook. I was unable to finish the book.
11315,1,A Misleading Threat to Depressed Patients Everywhere,"Dr. Breggin never prescribes psychotropics. He therefore has no experience with any. Untreated depression has a hard outcome, suicide at the peak age of responsibility and productivity. He is less a Ralph Nader type, than a hate speech advocate against modern psychiatry. He is similar to advocates of the horse when cars were first being made. He should be advocating accuracy,pragmatism and focus on what works. Some depressed patients benefit from anti-depressants and even electro-convulsive therapy. Some do not, benefitting from other therapies. Matching is the key, not extremist, obstructionist, heinous dogma. The arrogance that he knows what is best for the patients better than they do is unbearable."
11538,1,Uhhhh.......This game is no fun...!!!,"When I first bought the game and played it with all my friends, it was fun. Then the next day I almost threw it away because it became very boring. I don't know why. Maybe it's because this game is ""Boo-Boo"" DO NOT BUY!!"
11566,1,FEMA Manual written as a novel,"You know when an author has exhausted his genre when the entire naval climax takes less than a page and a half, and details on how the Eastern seaboard is evacuated takes over 30 pages. I can't tell you how delighted I was in skipping entire pages where Robinson just goes on and on about how Washington DC was being cleared of its treasures. I am so glad I got this book for the low, low price of $0.80 (not including shipping). This book is only slightly more palatable than a day old burger sitting in the heating tray at your local fast food burger joint. Hmmm... its a close call. Maybe I should have paid more attention to those 30 pages."
11591,1,Corrupted,"The Kindle version is full of incorrect words, transposed words, mispellings. It's poorly formatted. During much of the reading I found myself having to guess which word was intended. Get the Random House digital version for $1.99 instead."
11606,1,Try the Corolle Doll,"I used my own money to buy this doll. I was very upset because her hair got tangled up right away. So, my mom let me take her back to the store and we got my money back. Then we tried the Corolle Styling Head. It costs the same and it is great. I have used her for days and her hair is still like new. I don't know how it works, but the hair can curl too. I wish Toys R Us would carry Corolle dolls. They are great!"
11678,1,Batman - The Movie Review,But this for my kids and it was the most boring movie I have ever watched.The shows are more entertaining to watch then the movie.
11738,1,Cheap dumb ripoff,"Even if there wasn't a big budget Spielberg Cruise film coming out, this would still be a total ripoff. It's so bad even Channel 5 wouldn't show it at four in the morning. One reviewer said it looked like it had been shot by a chimp, but he's being too generous. A chimp throwing faeces at the camera would be a better filmmaker than these am-dram-hams. It would do a better job of keeping the camera still as well. Everything about this home video is substandard bad. Don't believe the good reviews this is getting here: this belongs in the trash. I am the original six foot Pole, and even I would not touch this!!!"
11741,1,"Please stop-motion FX Harryhausen, come back!!","Since the story is the greatest ever writtenI couldn't possibly think that I would consider this was going to be a crapy film but after seeing the special effects I must ask myself, if this is some kind of joke or an unfinished demo version I came across?The worst ever imaginable ""CGI"" you've ever come across on this side of 1985 (just watch the hilarious Thunderchild vs. tripod scene.)And when the first alien emerges from the cylinder all my hopes that this was going to be a great film was pulverized.Hello? Ancient Videogame anyone?!Although quite entertaining to watch with a lot of good laughs!And the acting wasn't much to talk about either.Sorry Timothy, better luck next time."
11779,1,Mouse Pointer moves erratically. I gave up on it.,"I purchased this mouse. I installed it and noticed the mouse pointer would move suddenly all around the screen. I looked the problem up at the Microsoft sight and they gave me a page of about 35 registry changes which I had to make to try to correct. The changes had to be made after you un-installed the driver, hence you had to work with out a mouse. What a major ordeal. Many other people had the same problem. The fix they gave me did not work. I just bought a logitect laser mouse. Microsoft needs to get their act together on this mouse. I can not recommed it to anyone."
11801,1,Do not buy this edition,"This edition appears to be from an OCRed text that was not proof-read. Odd spacings, strange characters, missing words. The binding and paper is cheap.Stay away! (It's not even worth one star.)"
11822,1,GREAT FAMILY VALUES SERIES?? NO SIR!!,"When I think of family values TV I think of ""The Waltons"" or ""Little House"". Reba is a program that obviously appeals to the masses of people who have no values and no standards by which to abide. If television has become a wasteland it is because of shows like this, Will & Grace, Sex and the City, all the teen soap operas out there, etc. What is it going to take for people to come to their senses and realize that supporting programs like this is what is contributing to the decaying moral fiber of America today."
11864,1,A slight addition to an excellent series.,"STRIP JACK is not one of the stronger books in the ""Rebus"" series. In this one, Rebus becomes interested in the trials and tribulations of an MP who is caught during a raid on a brothel. This leads to a couple of murders that may or may not be related and Rebus getting involved just out of curiosity. Rankin just seems to be going through the motions on this one, the mysteries are not very interesting and relatively straight forward, Rebus's usual emotional response seems distant and he seems to be in a state of befuddlement about life, career, and even the politics involved in the case. STRIP JACK lacks the laser-like focus of Rankin's other episodes and while I don't think Rankin has written a bad Rebus novel, this one is just a filler."
11902,1,Interesting Story,"Story was interesting, BUT...lame acting and I hate movies dealing with the military that show military members with hair longer than the military would allow and uniforms looking like they were slept in/worn for a few months, not to mention portray lame military bearing and custom/courtesy. Course having spent twenty years in the military this is a sore subject for me with many military films."
11915,1,grill cover,I was very disappointed in this product; it is made of very flimsy material and tears very easily; it is also not as big as I expected; do not recommend at all.
12050,1,bowling for truth?,please see bowlingfortruth.com it will straitin you out on this issue. the movie is a fake. lies all the way. its actually funny how he lies and spins the facts.i am a fan of dockumentarys and there are plenty of facts to support his views so why is it he has to lie? any way just check it out.www.bowlingfortruth.comthanks a lotenjoy your day.PhiPPs
12081,1,What a farce,"This ""documentary"" should be called a propagandamentary. Everyone who praises this film should watch it again. This time turn off the sound and emotions and just watch Heston's tie. You might feel ""had"".I must assume the only reason this film won an oscar is because the nominating commitee never saw it."
12084,1,Dissappointed,I am very disappointed in the purchase of the DVD The Perfect Nanny ... I CAN'T EVEN HEAR IT EVEN WITH THE TV TURNED UP . This was the only problem I have ever had with the many purchases I have made . VERY DISSAPPOINTED CUSTOMER
12093,1,Utterly Racist !!!!!!!!,"I read this book a couple of days ago..Behold, another 19th century eurocentric racist nonsense..No person of color should dupe themselves so much as to follow this religion that teaches one to self-hate himself because of his skin color..This is why I am an ATHEIST !!!!!!!!"
12121,1,Insulting,"Every page insults with racism, romanticized prostitution and corruption. Burdett's first book, 'Bangkok 8', gave insight into the Thai culture through the character of devout Buddhist Sonchai. In this book, Papasan Sonchai has clearly left the Path."
12137,1,"Yes, it's very brittle","I should have read more reviews before I bought this, because after a few weeks on my keychain, the end broke off cleanly. The unit still works, so I'm going to attempt to superglue it on, but I'm disappointed.For something that claims to be washer and dryer ""safe"", it's very fragile. The hole for the keychain ring should extend through the PCB, not the soft white plastic cover. I'm glad I didn't lose my data, but I'm not sure I'll trust this with anything important from here on."
12166,1,Don't waste your time or your money.,"If you must read this then get it at the library like I did. This author is presumptuous to believe she could ever work for a quality, albeit fairly generic publication such as the ""New Yorker"". She writes the way I talk, which is an endless nervous babble to get all my thoughts out in a short timespan. Really, this was a big waste of time, and whenever anyone asked me what it was I was reading, I replied ""a junky book""."
12167,1,So excruciatingly DULL,"Wow. This was an unbelievably dull book, which is something of a mortal sin for a gossipy tell-all. The ""excesses"" perpetrated by ""Miranda"" are, frankly, not all that shocking. Not for that circle. Nor is she sui generis in being a poor boss and an unpleasant waste of skin as a person. But I've read wickedly hilarious accounts of far more pedestrian events, persons and narratives...it's not so much the topic at hand in TDWP that induces dreariness but the execrable writing. The book should NEVER have been published. It might have been a great Rolling Stone or Harper's article, with more aggressive editing and tighter focus. Perhaps, as Weisberger writes in her dedication, we should blame the editor for taking out all the really funny stuff. Ultimately, though, it's the author's fault for sucking so damned hard."
12287,1,I would have given it zero star.,"I have an Athlon 1.4GHz machine. The temperature monitoring software came with my motherboard indicates a cpu temp of 59 under ME consistently. The funny thing is this same software shows my cpu temp is always 46 under win2k and xp.This is not the only problem I had with my ME. There were also millions of crashes, software failures, reboots. I just finally gave it up for the sake of machine. I wonder why MS released this garbage at all."
12362,1,wrong turn indeed by anthony m jones,"Antoher movie about canibles what a waste of time, well look Im gonna make it plain and simple,Im gonna make a list of things that sucked about the movie and things that really sucked about this movie.list of things that sucked;1;The cannibles are so ugly and its like they're envinceble.2;The cheesy effects for the movie were horrific.3;The acting was really bad.list of things that really sucked;1;The predictible ending 2;The fact I didnt get scared nor jump during the entire movie and 3;The fact that ive seen the same type of movie a million times before.Note; the only reason I didnt give it a 1 star rating is because I dont want to be to hard on the barely suspenseful plot.Sorry the producers made a wrong turn by making this movie.By the way if your half way interestd in this movie i'll at least suggest you renting it first."
12431,1,Everything about this sock is bad.,The description says these socks are seamless - they absolutely are not. I had a big seam going down every toe which caused constant rubbing. These socks are so uncomfortable and rubbed my toes/toe webbing so much that I had to take them off after 20 minutes of use (my toes are now sore). I *highly* recommend you pass on these socks - I will be returning mine.
12475,1,not as good as other cho-pat,"I have the original cho-pat, which is wonderful. It is the only product I've found that keeps all my knee ""parts"" steady and feeling good when I exercise. But the original has velcro that rubbed me the wrong way, so I thought the new & improved version would be better. But this one won't stay put - slides down my leg, no matter how tight I make it. I would like to return, but they won't take it back. Save your money ... or better yet, buy the original one and modify the velcro so it won't hurt your skin."
12500,1,NOT A FAMILY MOVIE!!!!!!,"Me and my mom were exited to see this movie at first but as we got farther into the movie we sooner or later left.It was such a shock that the price turned out to only be interested in topless girls And even asks one the girls in a bar to take her shirt off for him.Me and my mom bursted out of the theater and got her money back.Me and my mom had thought we had just veiwed half of a PG-13.if you think this movie would be cute for your daughter at her b-day or just a great family movie,WELL THINK AGAIN SISTER!!!"
12521,1,Not for every one,"It does what it is supposed to do, it prolongs your hardness and creates numbness. This is not for every one, I recommend this to people who has early ejaculation problem."
12602,1,Not a Good Gift...,"I bought this as a gift for a floutist friend. Unfortunately, I think they hated it, although she does enjoy playing the flute. I wouldn't buy it for a friend again, but maybe myself."
12661,1,Bridgestone Group VHS Transfer Untrackable EP,"5 stars for Lassie; 1 star for this crummy VHS! Here's more good advice to stick to the MGM VHS! We just bought The Painted Hills in a stated Collector's Edition claiming a ""Direct 35mm Film Transfer"" by the Bridgestone Group. After you open it you find unwatchable garbage that refuses to track in automatic or manual settings on different vcrs! Good idea to email your seller and ask about the studio, these reviews are used at multiple sites, and although I entered the AISN before writing this, Bridgestone is not mentioned at this site, and I see several other reviews for DVDs! Caveat Emptor! Buyer Beware!"
12679,1,Excruciating...,"I can't believe how long this took me to get through. And I can't believe this is the same author of Red Storm Rising and The Hunt for Red October. Rainbox Six was a pretty rough read, but this one has it beat by a mile. Don't expect any real action before, say, page 750 or so, and even then it's tame. Do expect extremely long and boring dissertations by Jack Ryan as to why he hates being president. And lectures by his friends as to why he should be. Do expect everyone to know everyone else. Nary a character is mentioned that Jack or Robbie or someone else doesn't ""know"" or has ""heard of."" Avoid spending your money on this massive, yet boring, book."
12694,1,"An OK 500 page book. Unfortunately it's over a 1,000","Clancy eventually offers his usual tense, involving, techno-fare at the end of the book. To get there, however, Clancy forces the reader to wade through reams of tedious, repetitive, and shallow drivel. TC's command of the the technology of warfare stands in sharp contrast with his command of almost anything human. The Chinese are portrayed as unimaginative drudges led by Klingon-like Maoists whose only relaxation appears to be sexual abuse of the office help. When he isn't swearing like a sailor with his old military buddies, whining about how much he hates his job, or amateurishly plunging the world into nuclear war, Jack Ryan spends most of his time bumbing cigarettes and hoping his wife won't find out because she is a surgeon and might emasculate him. Apparently, no joke or shallow observation is too lame for repetition after repetition.TC needs stick with what he does best, because, if this book is any example, he can't do much else."
12724,1,Poor,"Its the 3 watch i purchase 2 were out of battery within 5 months and this one not working options, menu and the hr doesnt stay permanently had to keep presing buttins to see hr"
12784,1,Dreadful,"Ah, the only movie I have ever hated SO much that when it was revealed that the lead female character was pregnant, I rooted for the monster to eat the fetus. Bad acting, plot, writing, etc. The monster is the worst part. It looks like a giant deep sea angler fish. What's so scary about that? Just make sushi out of the stupid thing.You'd be better off watching Leviathon, where the monster is a xenomorph, and which at least makes for good cheese."
12812,1,Mad Max Needs to Pay the Rent this Month.,"Wow, are you kidding? Words don't express my dissatisfaction with this pile of dung. Mad Max was fantastic, Road Warrior was wonderful. This bomb should have been used as a directors training film on how to mess up a sure thing. I guess it's just too easy to foul up a sequel when you can't figure out why the audience liked the originals and your star isn't really interested in the project. Sorry Mel, but even you can't save this one."
12899,1,hurry up and end,this was one of the worth movie that i have rent so far the cover looks interesting but the movie is bad.
12923,1,I Just Don't Get The Modern RUSH,"Concerning RUSH's last three studio recordings, Test For Echo, Vapor Trails and Snakes & Arrows ..... I just don't get it. It all sounds like a bunch of noise to me. Counterparts is the last recording I really liked by them overall ..... I guess that makes me a classic RUSH fan only at this point in time. The only reason I gave this recording two stars was out of the respect for the great musicians they are and the outstanding live shows they still perform today."
12947,1,Mama I want to sing,"I found this movie to be dull and slow paced. I expected more music, especially involving Whitney Houston. I was very disappointed."
12948,1,Awful,"I rented this movie from Redbox and the $1.20 I paid was too much. About 20 minutes in my boyfriend and I couldn't take it anymore. Ciara has clearly never acted before and the plot was terrible. Plus, how is the worst singer in the movie the lead--someone explain that one.If you proceed with purchasing this movie, the disappointment is your own fault. You've been warned!"
12973,1,"It was ok, nothing special","I guess I had too high of hopes reading hunter thompson. The short stories are ok, but nothing compared to his other works. Move on to the next hunter book if you are getting into his work."
13050,1,Ok I guess,The book was great but I have never seen such BAD acting in any other movie. Read the book and skip the movie!
13060,1,Inaccuracies make it useless,"This thermometer always gives readings around 96.5 to 97.5 degrees. As such, it is not a usable product. I am going to replace it, hopefully finding something that is accurate."
13065,1,Nastiest thing you'll ever taste,"The 'little' series is usually pretty good, but this is an exception I've found. My wife, wanting something less nasty than milk of magnesia to help our 2 year old have a bm, brought this home. ""It tastes like chocolate"" is what she said, trusting the label. Our innoccent son tried it and then choked and threw up. Poor guy. I tried it later.... man, was it nasty. It says to 'slowly' administer it to inner cheek. I don't think many kids would go for this. The only way would be mixing it into something already strong tasting and only a few drops at a time. The best is to modify diet and lots of fluids, but good ol milk of magnesia does the trick when you need it."
13069,1,An Important Warning,"Be warned: I ordered a copy of this with great anticipation, only to discover that contrary to all the packaging (right down to the cassette itself) - I had received not ""Guy Noir"", but an entirely different (and not nearly so interesting) Garrison Keillor live-on-tour performance tape. Possibly a one-off error, or there may be a whole batch like this."
13141,1,Very limited value,"Worked sporadically, then the RF drive disappeared and it was useless. In our environment we have several people sharing a room and equipment. My staff give much higher ratings of the Kensington Presenter with Laser Pointer (Staples# Kensington - KMW33374) with the RF stores in the unit itself when not in use."
13213,1,No drivers for Windows 7 or Vista,"My mistake in assuming they would be up to date with their drivers.From their own website:Is Kensington planning to release Mouseworks software compatible with Microsoft Vista or Windows 7?AnswerThere are no plans to do so at this time. It is important to know that you should not install Mouseworks on any PC running Microsoft Windows Vista or Windows 7. Mouseworks was exclusively developed to run under Windows XP and earlier versions of Windows. The Control Panel for Vista and Windows 7 does incorporate some options for input device configuration such as pointer speed adjustment, scrolling speed, and left/right button switch, however Mouseworks functionality such as button programming, fine tuning of acceleration et cetera are not supported."
13375,1,Didn't work with my MP3 player,"I picked this little gadget up because it claimed it was a univeral music adapter.Well, it didn't work with my Intel MP3 unit (which incidentally did work with an older music adapter I had. It did work with my old disc man and did work with an iRock MP3 player.If it works, it's great, if not well, it's garbage.The 1 star is for lack of support or listing of compatible players.Also, if you live in an are where high and low frequencies on the FM band are used by existing radio stations, then this won't work well because it will interfere with the local broadcase. I found it to work poorly in both NYC and DC."
13390,1,Free associations from a childish mind,"Cynical and sad, the first adjective matches with comedies, but not the second one, this Zucker movie is not a movie in itself, but a couple of free associations whose IQ required to see it is less than a chimpanzee watching The planet of the ape. Some boring patrons and a excentric tycoon who run a casino choose by random a group of individuals who engage in a race to get 2 millions dollars. The individual zeal and greedy are overcome when they finally got the money and found a best and humanistic choice: donate dollars to a NGO, Feed the Earth. Along the lines of Farrely brothers but without their intelligence and class sensibility, Rat Race is neither a comedy nor a movie. Not only the characters are ""kidnaped"" by the director's free associations, but one is also trapped by it. The great difference is -if you are not a critic- that after being 15 minutes in the multiplex you can leave theater."
13484,1,too long,"gettysburg on both tv,the movies,dvd and vhs is not a movie for the general public only for civil war buffs who can sit through a movie that is four hours long.this movie was so long that there was exactly an intermission on the dvd.BUT IF YOU REALLY WANT TO SEE IT GO AHEAD AMIGOS..."
13618,1,"Slow as Molasses, in January!","Why is it taking so long to release these last two volumes of Campbell's Mythos(III and IV)? First it was ""available in 2009-10"". Now it keeps creeping up through 2011, into 2012. Good thing they aren't expecting a big upfront advance, like most authors. If they were in commercial tv or even independent video, they would be out of business. They seem to be taking more time to assure their financial positioning in the whole scheme of things--I recall Campbell's speaking of the Businessman's ethic, which rules our ""culture"". I'm tempted to write a synopsis of the whole series myself(a Skeleton Key?), in my spare time, as all of this material resides in textual form already, anyways. Get on the ball. I worked in tv production, and it doesn't take this long to put it in the can. This isn't rocket-science. Just do it, or get off the can!"
13623,1,Meh...,"I saw the movie and was intrigued. The movie wasn't great by any means, but it did just enough to inspire me to want to know the ""real story"". The first thing I noticed about the book, was it was a lot smaller than I thought it would be. The thing I remember about the book after having read it, is that it was too long.Frankly, I thought the book was too long and boring. There were parts that were interesting, and parts that kept me wanting to read more.... but ""just barely"". Most of the book was a chore to finish. I almost gave up a few times, figuring I've read enough. I did finish it, it wasn't horrible, but I'd rate it below average."
13649,1,Great while it lasted,The first one of these I owned lasted a couple of years. A replacement one lasted only a couple of months. Got a Farberware instead. Farberware is less intuitive but has not broken after several months.
13666,1,Lynch's Worst,"I was a big fan of David Lynch untll this movie came out. It had a good, creepy beginning but after Pullman changed identities for whatever obscure reason the whole plot fell apart. I would not reccomend this movie to anybody who is not a die-hard Lynch fan. This movie is pure junk, with a great soundtrack."
13704,1,Returned mine,"I have no problem with the picture of this television in general, but after two bad experiences with different TVs, I am now planning on returning this model for good. The problems I have had each time are discoloration (purplish or yellow) of the screen in either the upper right or upper left area. I could see the discoloration markedly when you display a white image on the screen.I figured at first that this was a problem with the store that I bought the sets, but instead after reading TV forums, I have concluded that Samsung seems to be selling numerous faulty TV sets of this model. Considering that I struck out twice in a row, I would not recommend that anyone else get this set. Find something else."
13715,1,Does not fit the TX as advertised,"I suspect this case was originally sized for other, slightly smaller palms. Whe a TX is slid into this case, the top of the display is obstructed and the palm sticks out the top. The palm originally used in this case must have been shorter & palm called it close enough. The quality & workmanship of the case is nice, but it simply does not fit a TX. I'm disappointed."
13720,1,Cheap imitation knock-off of original product,"Buyer beware!! This product is not Flies Be Gone. It is a cheap knock off imitation named Flies Away. Of the 3 traps I purchased, one had a hole in the bottom of the bag. The second broke within an hour of filling the bag. The plastic bag separated from the yellow top. The third trap seems to be okay but it is only the first day. This listing should be taken down as this is a fraudulent listing. NOT THE PRODUCT BEING ADVERTISED!!!"
13766,1,Software?,"Looking for some 'cheap' electronic organizers, I came across this one. The floor model was on sale, so it made it a great deal. The software was not included and I wasn't told that I needed software to make it work with my computer. The sales associate made it sound as the Palm would install the needed components on my computer. No where on the box did it mention a CD-ROM to install.With this lack of software, this thing is pretty much useless."
13774,1,There are much better books available,"As an artist looking to enhance my skill set I was looking for a book that would bridge the gap. This book however, fell pretty flat. For one the majority (over 60%) of the diagrams are very lack luster and rudimentary pencil sketches that will not help anyone with even a remote drawing ability. It doesn't help anyone who wishes to see how the muscle groups and joint actually move either. I would suggest you pay a little more money and get the professional anatomy books that are available."
13838,1,Don't order from Abundatrade!!,"Although the movie was great, service was HORRIBLE!! I picked a used movie from ABUNDATRADE and it took FOREVER TO GET THE MOVIE....FOREVER!! Seller did not provide a tracking number so when i contacted them for one, they said that the United States Postal Service did not allow them to get one-WHATEVER! I ship through ebay all the time, using the USPS and they provide me with a tracking number EVVERYTIME I SHIP A PACKAGE. They're just being lazy. I just don't want someone else to order from them and have to wait half a month to get the movie. Order through someone else. PLEASE."
13841,1,Movie is great... beware of digital copy promise,"The movie is GREAT. My complaint and reason for the one star is that it eems Sony got a bit sneaky with this one. They list a digital copy as part of the set. I paid more for this set expecting to get the digital copy. There is one problem... the digital copy only works with a Sony Playstation 3. It does say this on the back jacket of the disc set. However, when I ordered it off of Amazon, I had no idea until I opened the package. I won't be buying another Sony disc with the promise of a digital copy."
14004,1,A TITLE FOR YOUR REVIEW,I HAVE JUST STARTED READING THIS BOOK AND I DON'T LIKE WHAT I READ SO FAR.IT IS VERY COMPLICATED TO UNDERSTAND AND THERE ARE A LOT OF CHARACTERS.I AM STILL READING THE BOOK SO MAYBE IT WILL GET BETTER.
14156,1,"A period piece, and not in a good way","I have no credentials as a reviewer of mysteries, as I seldom read them. I picked this one up because I knew Sayers had translated Dante. ""Gaudy Night"" was awful. I hated the class snobbery, the bickerings of the academics, Lord Wimsey's monocle, and Harriet Vane's ditherings about love. I felt sorry for the perpetrator; in the same shoes, if I had to deal with these people, I might have done the same! As a snapshot of pre- World War II Oxford and of the anxieties that attended women who sought out a university education and independent lives, it is, I guess, of some interest. Why is it that Austen, a writer I love, doesn't seem dated at all, while this book is frozen in amber?"
14173,1,Mastered at the wrong speed,The songs are mastered way faster than the original records were. The girls sound like they had a dose of helium before recording.
14223,1,This is kid's stuff!!,"The action is for kids 10 and under!!!It got pretty boring half-way. It's just a waste of my money that could have spend in some more entertaining way. But if you are a kid, you will love this movie!"
14224,1,VERY BAD ALBUM,"IT HASNT NOTHING TO BE LISTENED, SONGS LIKE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA ARE VERY BORING LIKE SONGS OF ZEPPELIN AND DEEP PURPLE."
14252,1,It is functional...,"Well, I'm not terribly impressed with this metal rotary grater. Yes, it will grate cheese, but the gap between the drum and compartment that holds the cheese is a little over 1/4 of an inch. This allows for the cheese to get 'gummed' up and eventually that large wad just falls through. Also, for harder cheeses this means you're constanty picking out chunks of cheese that should have been grated.I've yet to find a rotary grater I'm happy with. I've broken several plastic models within 2 days of owning them. While I've yet to break this metal model, it just doesn't perfrom very well. I'm still using my stand-up grater."
14276,1,HORRIBLE COVERS-HADLEY SINGS LIKE A CHANTEUSE IN A NIGHTCLUB,"Cover, after cover, after cover....Hadley sings boring songs that don't need to be done!...Free Fallin', Shes Gone, Save A Prayer...etc...The only standout is ""She"" which Hadley wrote.Boring, Boring, Boring...he belts out like he is singing in a night club....All you need Hadley is a smokey bar and a pink boa."
14307,1,Why do you persist? We ask the same thing!!!,"I really loved the Matrix. Smart, movie that caught you off guard. But Matrix Reloaded should have been labelled Matrix Re-bloated. It was silly, pretentious and basically laughable in spots. Neo goes Superman. Blah! And yes, I really gave it several chances to see if it would improve.So I held off with this final installment - 2 installments too any. Bigger is not better, it's just more of the same overblown mess than Reloaded was. Trinity's death scene was bland, failing to move me. It was so much special effects, and some quite funny.Wave bye bye Neo...thankfully!! This movie series will go down in the history of film as how NOT to make a sequel and a sequel's sequel."
14328,1,Poorly made,I bought this food mill to make apple sauce and it did a terrible job. It took forever and the spring kept falling off. After only 3 quarts of apple sauce it broke completely and is not useable. The good thing is the company who sold it is taking it back. I would definitely not buy this food mill.
14433,1,Didn't keep me interested,"The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams was one very strange book. If you're into science fiction humor than this is a good book for you. I will give the author credit for good characterization. He goes into good detail about the different appearances and traits of each of the characters which brings the book alive. Both the setting and the plot were a little confusing however. The setting was constantly changing and the topic of conversation quickly changed from one thing to the next in a random way. This made reading the book a little tedious and frustrating to follow. All in all, it was not worth the time for me to read and understand this book, because it didn't catch enough of my interest."
14444,1,Agree with the previous comment,"Totally loved it, the best light ever but has a major problem which is the wiring that goes to the bulbs, after some use -mine lasted only 4 months- it goes completely dead. Very dissapointing"
14556,1,This film is an insult to the people whose names it uses.,"It might be pretty - I don't know, I found it to be too nauseating. I have read several biographies of Elizabeth, so I was very interested when this movie came out. Forget disappointing, this movie was appalling. Its only semblance to history were the names used. If you're looking for a bit of entertainment with sex and violence in costume, and you have no respect for the reputations of real people who lived and died four hundred years ago, you might like this movie. If you watch it, please remember that, as a source of historical insight on the characters of Elizabeth and her court, this movie is complete and utter garbage."
14566,1,"awful script, mostly bad acting","The customer reviewer from Winston-Salem who posted comments on 8-18-99 expressed my views perfectly. Actaully, it was so terrible I couldn't stand it and turned it off after about 20 minutes. In its favor I can only think to say that at least Paltrow is graceful and attractive; her acting wasn't bad but couldn't overcome the absolutely awful awful script; Dench was inoffensive and may have lent relief from the misery later in the film if she had been featured more and if I had been able to bring myself to watch. Why hasn't anyone commented on how ill Fiennes looked (like a walking corpse)? It struck me as a 90s version of a bad 50s historical adaptation (I know this wasn't an adaptation)...Tony Curtis et al. If you like anachronistic, dumbed-down, almost-lowest-common denominator historical comedy, you'll like this....I prefer Monte Python: at least they have honest pretensions."
14689,1,historia amarga,"Antes que nada decir que de las hermanas bronte el único que me gustó fue Jane Eyre a pesar de ser muy triste la historia, pero este... Primero, creo que está influido por la corriente realista de papá goriot y esos libros de temática trágica como si la realidad fuera solo penuria y tragedia.Segundo, las Bronte, Emily, Charlotte, escribían muy bien, pero Cumbres borrascosas te deja un sabor amargo en la boca, un mensaje francamente negativo y es una pena, no lo considero novela romántica. SErá un clásico bien escrito y demás pero no es un libro que volvería a leer jamás ni lo recomiendo para nada."
14693,1,NOT RECOMMENDED!,"5-Line Retractable Clothes DryerHousehold Essentials 3-Piece Clothesline Post Designed for the Household Essential 15 by 7-Inch Retractable DryerBought test two items together and thought it would work well for my back yard. I put the retractable clothes dryer on the side of the house and put the pole about 34ft away. But once we put the clothes on the line (after locking the lines in place as instructed) the lines severely drooped and some of the clothes were even touching the ground. Also the clothes in the middle did not dry as well as the clothes on the outside, the lines should be further apart. Also after having some clothes on there the pole also was starting to bend. We didn't put everything up in time and our 30 day return period is over. I would recommend this to a friend, the lines need to be more heave duty, this product in kind of ""wimpy"" for hanging clothes 34ft away."
14720,1,Not as cool as I remember.,"I wish I hadn't bought it. I don't like this movie at all. It arrived on time and played like new, but it sucks."
14730,1,Horrible!,The movie I got was not a real movie! It said DVD but when I put the DVD in there it was only a small screen in the top left corner if the screen. It was a waste of my money!
14741,1,Leprechaun 4 - In space,"Leprechaun 4- In Space was not like the first three Leprechaun movies, this movie is not at all scary if anything it will make you laugh. I am a Leprechaun fan, but #4 is not at all what I thought it would be. Everytime a movie gets good the sequels get worser I hope that the Leprechaun series picks up a little better than this one."
14786,1,No Zero Star Rating? Bummer,"I'm so thrilled to be able to write my review because it means that the book is over and I can now donate it to my local library. B-O-R-I-N-G.Also, thank God, Jilly's plant Fred vanished somewhere in the chase. I guess Koontz's editors weren't all THAT bad."
14788,1,By the Plight of the Goons,"Before I start, I want to say that DK has done SO much better, i.e. Watchers, Intensity, Coldfire and Odd Thomas. There.That said, this book had two of the most annoying characters I've ever come accross. Jilly was such a B#%$! I absolutely could not stand her! Ugh! The ""Rain Man"" brother even though he should have had my sympathy, had me wanting to chuck the book across the room.These people acted like everything that happened to them was just...well normal! No reactions whatsoever. Just endless corny bantering. Hello people. Get real. That's my two words for DK as far as these out-of-reach characters that he's been dreaming up as of late: Get Real. People like to read about Real People."
14791,1,What the heck ???,"I bought this superwinch atv mount for my polaris sportsman 500. It fit the atv just fine, but my superwinch 2500 lb winch holes would not line up with winch mount are you kidding me."
14800,1,"Was a great blog, crappy book","Salam Pax started out well. Then he got commercialized. The tone of his writing has changed dramatically, and the influence from the anti-war crowd has all but consumed his writing.I'd love to tune back in years from now after he's been forgotten, to see if he returned to writing from the heart."
14831,1,Performance is good but I hate video touch.,"I chose this DVD based on the name of the quartet. The performance was good to excellent, but I really hate the video part of production. The stage is sometimes completely dark, intentionally. Sometimes it shows only small stream of light to certain player's face. Sometimes the screen shows all the side of players,etc. I guess the producer tried to make his own stage drama based on this music.I was not able to concentrate the music itself because the screen images change through the intention of producer's mind. And also I can not follow through the composer's score by watching players playing. It was really sad that I stopped to watch this DVD as it was too much distract me to watch."
14886,1,The Most Overrated Movie Of All Time,"In college, my best friend talked me into watching the movie and doing a report on it for him. I could barely stand to watch it all. And several months ago when I saw that the AFI had selected it the number 1 American film of all time, I was stunned. Who are these people? I know Citizen Kane is partly based on a real person's life, but the plot totally sucked. The acting wasn't great either. Everyone talks about the cinematography, well I wasn't even impressed with that, though I suppose back when it was release it was something."
14900,1,What!,"The CD Title is ""Back to the Charleston"". I t dosen't even have the charleston on the free listening! This is an OUTRAGE! I give this CD a 1. Even though I like the charleston."
14903,1,Have Not Received Yet.,"I cannot appropriately rate this game, because i have not received it yet. But looks good. I hope it is NOT a 1st person character play."
14921,1,No Chemistry and a Gag-Inducing Moment,"I can't think of a movie where two stars had such little chemistry. Why Hugh wastes his time with the Julia Roberts character will remain a mystery throughout the whole movie. She continually reminds us that she just wants to be like every one else, but acts as if she if slumming it by hanging out with him and his friends. The corker is the nauseating lines she utters when she tries to repair things. BE AFRAID....BE VERY AFRAID - These words will not only make you terribly queasy; unbelievably she repeats them for good measure. The whole theater groaned and then giggled in disbelief. This sums up the whole movie. I gave two charitable stars only because I am a sucker for London."
14976,1,surely it can taste better than this ...,"My insurance does not cover prenatal vitamins, so on the hunt for something I could afford I purchased these. I liked that they were natural, included ginger extract, and were one a day.But surely they can make a vitamin that tastes better than this? I've tried a range of other vitamins, and never have I had anything that tastes this bad. I don't understand the folks who said this doesn't taste bad - did they get different pills? Are their taste buds dead? Even the smell in opening the bottle is overwhelming. My current method is trying to cover the pungent taste (and aftertaste) with milk. Doesn't quite work, but anything to take the edge off.I do take them with the Mommy's Bliss Omega-3 DHA supplements, and those are quite nice."
14998,1,Okay movie,I was expecting this movie to be different than most & I was right! It was pretty slow moving but not a bad movie if you are looking to kill some time.
15050,1,Save your money....Don't beleive the hype,"I have kept hearing about how great this disc is and how great this ""ripper"" is. Well, I have finally listened to this from beginning to end. I have to say that I am very disappointed. How dare people compare ripper to Rob Halford. It isn't even close. In fact there is nothing special about him at all. It is great to hear the hooks and crunching of the Priests' music again but the vocals just don't do it for me. Granted, Halford may not be able to hit the heights anymore, but at least it would save the embarrassment of hearing poor K.K., Glenn and Ian playing in what is just a shell of its former self, the mighty Judas Priest. JP please know when to say when. Stop the insanity!!!!!"
15063,1,Halo Sucks,Halo 2 is even worse than Halo 1. Halo 2 is more unrealistic than the first. The vehicles are mainly the same and the guns are a little different. If you didnt like the firt Halo dont buy this because it is even stupider. They should have changed the name because it sounds like a game for girls. The grafics havent gotten better. If you like realistic shooting games get Conflict Veitnam. It is very realistic and theres 14 missions and over 40 weapons.
15078,1,boring and hard to read,"hello,well i found this book boring, and very hard to read for someone has trouble reading...i love history but i just think this book was HORRIBLE....I had to read it for a book report..and i am still having trouble writing the book report...again HORRIBLE..dont' get it"
15091,1,"Uh, close, kind of","I was really excited about this CD because I love UFO, and I also love Thin Lizzy. Now, after Thin Lizzy's implosion, Grand Slamm emerged with Phil Lynott (RIP) and Laurence Archer. This band had some promise, yet never truly recorded. Fast forward about 10 years and Lawrence Archer is now UFO's guitarist! However the album is WEAK! Save your money and buy something else. This is pop, not rock, and not metal. This really cannot be called UFO as it truly is a UFO tribute band in my estimation. It is hard to criticize the boys, but at any rate KEEP ON ROCKIN'!"
15131,1,Weak bass equals weak sound,"Since I workout and do cardio six days/week, I rely on my music to keep me motivated. These headphone have very little bass which, for me, make for a weak sound. With other headphones (like the ones that came with my iPod) I normally have the volume at about 75%. In order to achieve the same volume with the Senheiser's I had to crank it up to 95-100%. While they did stay in my ears, I was constantly messing with the green cord (trying to straighten it out) which was very long and never lost it's springy, curled-up shape."
15150,1,twist to fit doesn't work,"They work fine as regular headphones but the twist to fit system is a joke. It's stupid, it doesn't do anything."
15151,1,Don't buy if your ears are on the small side,"I have tried these at least 5 times and I'm done. My ears are smallish (not freakishly, I am a girl) I even put the smallest attachments on, but by the end of my workout my ears are throbbing and somewhat numb. I kept giving them a chance trying different positions because I really wanted to like these. Because my ears are smallish regular buds fall out of my ears it's is SO frustrating. If you have suggestions for sport earbuds that work well with small ears please feel free to 'comment' your suggestion."
15208,1,What to use this line for?,"As a level fly line, this isn't a useful item. Level lines aren't particularly good for fly fishing as they don't allow a delicate presentation of the fly. The reality is that double taper and weight forward lines are available on-line for only a few dollars more or even less in some cases, on ebay for no name lines.If this were were a sinking line instead of a floating one, it'd be useful as a fly trolling line.The price isn't bad but the uses are unfortunately really limited.There's an old saying that that difference between a man and a woman is that a man will pay two dollars for a one dollar item that he needs and a woman will pay a dollar for a two dollar item that she doesn't. The problem is there aren't going to be a lot of women shopping for this.This item is a good price for an item that one really doesn't need at all. Crystal River really needs to offer this item as DT or a WF line."
15311,1,Far too difficult to learn much through only listening in a car driving around,"The introductory disc of Drive Time Italian employs the repetition and pace that is reasonable for this type of learning which is while one is driving and listening without textbooks, as it is advertised. Following that disc however, the speakers do not repeat, and the pace is very quick. In additon, the instructor uses technical terms such as 'the infinitive' out of a context to provide support for adult learners who have been away from formal schooling for awhile. The lessons need to be done more slowly, and with much more repetition. The Italian and the English version should be used together so that the learner knows what is being said, and the progress the learner is making. I am very disappointed in this set of CDs and believe they were not worth the money I paid."
15396,1,Where's Neil?,"If Neil is playing the instruments and not singing on this, then this isn't worth it. Who is Elyse? I recommend this to someone who likes Elyse, not Neil Young."
15498,1,Really no big deal.,"I think the trouble with this album is that is has no soul, something that never lacked in a YES album. Other problem is that the album has 74 minutes of radio-oriented songs! Silly thing to do!Also, Steve Howe's playing reached an all-time low here, he was obvioulsy not into the songs.Of coruse, when you're delaing with musicians of this magnitude, you can always find one, two or three great moments. That's all."
15502,1,Only for experts,"I bought this based on a recommendation from a tech insider who said ""your tech teams will love it"", but even they were frustrated with the syncing options and software. The unit performs ok, but it is not intuitive on installation and hot syncing. Too many different programs to keep straight. Finally when installing on my XP system it (along with the tech support people Sharpe directed me to delete several critical drivers that it conflicted with - only to have equally important pieces of equiptment fail. WHAT A PAIN! If you do not enjoy plumbing the depths of your computers operating systems and bios - order something with more dependable software. The unit looks great and has good graphics and adequate functionality, but woe to the operating system."
15594,1,"King Arthur, President","In ""One Knight Only"" Arthur Penn (the King Arthur modernized) once again must go on a quest for the Holy Grail to save the live of his wife Gwen (King Arthur's queen reincarnated).Slightly less humorous and a few shades darker than the first installment in David's trilogy, Arthur faces the legendary Gilgamesh in an effort to capture the Holy Grail. David obviously has researched his legendary characters, but those less versed in world mythology may be left slightly in the dark.My major problem with this novel was the use of italics passages for what I felt unapparent reasons. It disrupts the story and changes the tense of the story. All in all, though, it's worth a read, and I will be purchasing the third book in the series."
15674,1,VERY BAD!!,I didn't like this book because it had a rotten and badending. This book wasn't the greatest.
15702,1,TERRIBLE!!!,This is an abosolute DISGRACE TO BEETHOVEN'S MUSIC!!! The music is Far below the tempos that Beethoven originally wrote. The quality of the recording equipment is also quite terrible. I was extremely displeased with these pieces. I now have learned a valuable lesson.. NEVER PURCHASE INEXPENSIVE RECORDINGS! They tend to be of poor quality.
15832,1,Disappointed me,"""I'd really like to give this band negative stars but I am forbidden to do that. After giving this album, that's chock full of crap, numerous chances, I came to the conclusion that this band seems to possess a lack of talent due to the fact that they're trying to copy the grunge bands from Seattle. Either they need to go back to the studio and write some original music or put on some tye-dye shirts and hug trees and what not. Do not, and may I emphasize DO NOT, buy this album."" - A music fan who has the same idea with me"
15845,1,A Shadow Should Not Talk,"I was really excited to get this for my son who loves Don Freeman books. However, this book is about how a shadow is looking for its owner. Shadows don't talk. Bad concept for a book!"
15906,1,Now I know why only $3.99,"I should have known the price was way to low. Looks like they are trying to unload these on the uninformed consumer. It is my fault for assuming that this would play on my Blu Ray player, now I know better. So, if you do not have the HD player, don't even bother with this DVD."
15943,1,Sorry... but all those 5 stars are just ridiculous,"Think every die hard Barbra fan knows this is Not a great album and trying to safe what can only be discribed this total dissaster of an album.I am a Barbra fan since a star is born... loved the song prisoner (eyes of laura mars) to death, enjoyed her Donna Summer duet still and think 'Guilty' is one of the best albums ever made. Guilty pleasures??? What the hell went wrong... The arrangments sound cheap (what's with those 80's (and not in a good retro way) synth sounds... Barbra's vocals sound lifeless (yes there still is a voice, but what's a voice when the feeling touch is gone?), and the songs are just, well... let's say... the best song in this album would not even be a good filler on the original Guilty.This was my most anticipated release of this year and i'm disspointed beyond.. well everything... This album has the sound of Has-been all over it... sorry Barbra... This project will sell well, but doesn't deserve to"
15960,1,Outdated by Wikipedia,"In 1999, when this was published, there was not much high-quality online material of this type. Now there is lots, including Wikipedia. I purchased this to read the overview papers, which I found elementary and pedagogical---not useful for research. I read a sampling of entries and found them fragmented and rather elementary. Thus, this book (like many other 'encyclopedia' type books, are superannuated. I will donate my copy to charity."
15969,1,Good to know...,...So Mama's Family is a cheap substitute? - I hate it when they change something so they can show you more commercials and then want to sell it to you as the real thing - thanks to everyone for pointing that out - I know that the streaming version of Married with Children doesn't even use the real opening theme - thanks to the internet you can find out it it's a bootleg copy.
16078,1,The DTS track is not worth it,"WARNING, I you do not have a DVD AUDIO player and an dvd-audio compatible amplifier, don't bother with this DVD-AUDIO. The DTS track does not have a discreet LFE (subwoofer) audio track. That's a bummer. That was the whole reason for me to get this item.So if you want some big bass when the canon is lit, forget it ..."
16118,1,"Complete Works, 14 tracks? No way!","A CD purporting to be Joplin's complete works would certainly have more than 14 tracks. Instead try ""The Complete Piano Music Of Scott Joplin,"" ASIN B000003QWN; four disks containing 52 tracks! I think this would be far more likely to be his ""complete works"" though I think even this one must be leaving out some of the compositions of this prolific ragtime composer. I know for a fact 14 songs wouldn't be his complete... anything! If you just want an introduction to his music, this CD may be all the Joplin you need, but be sure to rub out the word ""complete"" when your CD arrives. :)"
16148,1,The epitome of Hollywood Hogwash...,"You Americans puzzle me. I can't help but notice that your blockbusters must be jampacked with patriotic shamltz. Does it make you feel better or something? You're a great nation, we get it already! Let me get this straight; aliens invade (as if that wasn't already a corny cliche) and the PRESIDENT of the USA spearheads an assault and saves the world. Don't tell me you don't even find this a little laughable. Hell, maybe it's the dry humour that we English all supposedly have.Don't get me wrong, I think America is great. Long live our alliance! Long live the superpowers!"
16219,1,Disappointed in Product,"We bought this days ago, and it is already going back. An impromptu stop at the store for a walker for my 10mos old to take on vacation so he wouldn't be cruising all the furninture at grandma's house. After three kids, I was missing the old ones I had for the other two, but was tempted because of its simplicity and ""no battery"" thing...let me break it down:*time consuming assembly, had to hunt down screwdriver*it tipped over immedietly as the baby pulled himself up, so it only worked when I held on to either him or the front of the walker, making this not an independent toy*within minutes mailslot doors came off*now have to hunt for ""mail"" so it can all go back to the store*the ""adjustable"" traction worked on some floors in our home, but not all of themon the plus side, it doesn't run on batteries, is pretty basic and the baby loved playing with the mail slots while the doors stayed on. Either way, I am returning it and getting a different activity walker for him."
16252,1,don't listen to the reviews,"If sickly sweet is your thing then buy this album. But don't listen to me or the others, liusten to at least 3 tracks first. I bought this after listening to the Leonard Cohen cover (hallejuha) which I love but no other track sounds like that one, the rest of the album is sickly sweet and incredibly irritating and nauseating."
16288,1,IT AIN'T PRETTY ARTISAN!,ARTISAN loves to put out lousy substandard dvds and apparantly they think no one either notices or cares. Let's see...SLEEPLESS by DARIO ARGENTO...and this great movie JOHNNY HANDSOME which I WON'T BE BUYING until they put out a decent version. I was gonna buy this today as a matter of fact and immediately put it back when I saw it was full-screen. YAWN...wake up ARTISAN...please!!
16408,1,not what I thought it was,I thought this book was going to have stories that people could easily remember and tell at a campfire. Wrong! A few of the stories were short and okay but I can't imagine kids sitting and listening to the short stories let alone the long ones. I found this book boring and not at all what I thought it would be. Sorry.
16450,1,THIS DOES NOT WORK WITH DELL INSPIRON **NO STARS**,"Don't bother spending your money, it's not worth the $10 I spent for it. It is totally useless, and won't even turn the laptop on. A total waste!!!!!!!!"
16477,1,bitter and not that yum,"bought these for a group of family who loves coffee / tea and was visiting my home. the packing is awesome and the cookies look very preciously packed.however I wasn't impressed by them at all taste wise. found them to be bitter and lots of essence. was disappointed as I was really counting on them and thought with the packing and reviews, I had found the right one."
16495,1,Didn't like it,"I was forced to read this book a few years ago in school. I hated it. It was extremely boring, long and repetitive. If you like books about surviving with only a hatchet, well I guess you'll like this book."
16796,1,ouch!,"Well, I have had this cd for a year now. I thought I would give it time to grow on me, but it never did. Queensryche has really lost it. In the first song ""Falling Down"" one of the lines states: ""I can't even think of a word that rhymes"" I don't know what happened to the deep and thoughtful lyrics of the past, but they are obviously gone. Save yourself and your money!"
16834,1,A long and rambling tale that loses the reader,"While the beginning of E. Annie Proulx's novel, Accordion Crimes starts off well, the reader is quickly lost as the accordion moves from one miserable owner to another. I truly was bored by this book, but did finish it."
16868,1,"Not made well, don't aste your time","This broke while we were trying to intsall in. It's really not ""made to fit"" any toilet. Made very cheaply. Don't waste your money!"

16926,1,stopped working in a week,"what can I say. This one held so much promise.I liked the capacity, the controls, the price, the output and the looks.I was especially thrilled about the heating element. It was not the typical ring type that makes it so hard to reach and clean. This one is a flat plate.But alas, less than 1 week into it, it simply stopped powering on. My search for a humidifier continues ..."
16946,1,"Lots of ""ear candy"". Not much meat in the story","Jayne's comments were too cutesy. I didn't have much sympathy for her. It's not my type of story. I'm just learning about my Kindle, so I wasn't too choosy, when I picked it out."
16960,1,It's not what I've expected...,"I bought this phone because of its features: Caller ID, answering machine and expandable. But sorry to say I agree with most of the reviews of this phone. When I'm talking on the phone the other side of the line couldn't hear me for half of the time. I use the phone the first when I call my mom who's oversea and she said 'Why are you talking to me on a cheap phone?' It's not fun using this phone when calling long distance when I'm paying for every single minute, not even fun when I paid $130 for the phone, not at all. After reading the reviews I do realised that the caller id always have 'incoming' call and yes it is slow to show the number that's calling. I'll sure to try the method a review pointout to improve the function of the caller id.I had not have any complaint about the battary life maybe because I don't talk too long a time.If I had read the reviews before buying the phone, I don't think I get this after all."
17007,1,Boring and Pretentious.,"She has a great voice. It's time for her to start doing some music of her own, and not copy other great female voices anymore. I have never heard such a pretentious interpretation, singing as someone who has the most marvelous voice on Earth and trying to make it sound special. Not a bad CD, but just very boring and pretentious. You can almost see her singing: ""I'm the best, screw the rest !"". Very disappointing. Don't waste your money. Go for Vanessa Rubin instead (Female Talk)."
17021,1,I don't get it . . .,"Ok, I agree the guy can sing, but I just don't get his popularity. This album is just tiring to listen to. The vocals are over the top, as is the music.I want to understand, I really do. Can someone enlighten me?!"
17022,1,No wow factor,"I have nothing against Josh. He has a good voice, but sadly, this album is no better than his first one. The selection of songs are so similar to his previous album, and its kinda like a repetition. Nothing as changed. Personally, I find this album boring, and prefered his first cd . Sorry Josh."
17147,1,Avoid anything Valis related from PKD,"I love much of PKD's writing, but this is just bad. There's very little story at all, and instead the bulk of the book is just incoherent religious ramblings and aimless political paranoia, apparently the product of PKD's deteriorating mental state after years of heavy amphetamine abuse. Other books from around this time in his life I've read (or I've tried to read but given up on) are similarly terrible, and I don't why I thought another take on the whole Valis nonsense would be better when the book VALIS itself is pretty much unreadable."
17225,1,Does the dog get saved?,"John Travolta is an angel sent to Earth to give William Hurt a heart, to make him fall in love with Andie McDowell. Why should that be so hard? The happy ending would dictate that Hurt falls in love with her, and if the script tells him to I'm sure he will. Hooray. Many of the scenes in this movie are pointless and rambling. The plot is so weak that it wasn't revealed til the end. What the movie was really about, as far as I could tell, was an angel bringing a dog back to life and attracting girls."
17241,1,beware,"Sorry for the silly title... no great emergency here, but somehow the pieces are wrongly labeled in the mp3 download section. What is labeled as suite no. 2 is actually suite no. 3 and vice versa. I've seen cd's w/ inaccurate mp4 information on the tracks before, so that may be what happened here."
17283,1,HORRIBLE DO NOT BUY. REPEAT DO NOT BUY,this was the worst waste of money even. with in 5mins of my first use the rate knob broke. and all the wires keep cutting out. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY as i did. ihad to buy a replacement the same day i bought this. A horrible piece of equipment. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY.
17351,1,Worthless piece of crap,"I purchased these speakers for my boat, and they started falling apart just as the warranty ran out. I used the boat very little and the stereo even less. They were not exposed to the weather because the boat is kept covered. I had Pioneer car NOT marine speakers with paper cones in the boat for 5 years. They were not weather resistant at all, but they lasted. The Sony speaker's claims to be UV and salt water resistant but the cones turned brown and bent out of shape. And the black foam around the cones looks like the glue is letting go. If you need a good set of speakers DO NOT BUY THESE. I did contact Sony and because the warranty expired 2 months ago they said they could do nothing."
17414,1,Very disappointed.,"I am a huge Harry Potter fan. watched all three movies in the theatre at least twice, got all the DVDs, etc.I think Chris Columbus did a good job with the first two, but Cuaron messed up the third one big time. I don't think he has even read the book thoroughly enough to truly understand it. PoA, my favourite book so far from the series after the 5th, was expected to be the best HP film yet by many Harry Potter fans, but it is the truth that many were disappointed. I used to think JK Rowling was kind of harsh with the whole sticking-to-the-book thing with the Chris Columbus, but now I can see that she said that for a good reason, because PoA turned out to be a wee bit better than just 'crap'."
17466,1,About as awful a work of fiction as you can find.,"I absolutely loved the Mayfair witches novels - until ""Taltos."" Then the series took off in a direction that can only be classified as ""tripe."" Poor Anne Rice - I think she has finally run out of inspiration for her novels of the supernatural. Having suffered through ""Blackwood Farm,"" I thought, well, let's try one more time. Thank heaven Ms. Rice is putting the Vampire Lestate to bed (in fiction, at least - there's rumours of a Broadway musical, heaven forfend!). The legion of fans who have made Ms. Rice a best-selling author deserve better than this sloppy, boring, idiocy that passes for fiction. Pass it by and re-read ""The Witching Hour,"" if you need a Rice fix."
17485,1,Not the best showcase for the talent this group may have,"How does this CD contrast with the better ones from Tool, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, and other icons of heavy rock? Let me count the ways. Where the other ones can vary their style, up to and including the light and lyrical, this CD stays in the realm of the unduly loud. Where the other ones, even when heavy, offer interesting, unique riffs that entice repeated listenings, this CD provides nonstop noise that irritates more than it entertains. Where the other ones provide novel and even incisive lyrics, this CD's lyrics wander aimlessly and thrust at nothing I can recognize. I don't want to say that there's no talent here, but rather, that better vehicles for display of that talent might come along. Don't spend money on Disturbed until they do."
17558,1,HORRID!,"I recently watched this movie, what a piece of garbage. I thought Wood Harris was plain awful...downright painful to watch as Hendrix. I was sick of his darting tongue and his constant cheezy grinning during the concert scenes. The guitar playing "" simulation ""was even worse. The real Hendrix was not like this at all!!!. I should have suspected the movie would suck, because no one can cheapen a film like Billy Zane. Once I recognized him behind that huge mustache, I should have stopped watching. I blame this one though, on Wood Harris..he was just terrible."

I told her I ordered bags but they'd never arrived. ""Oh"" she said.""OH"" ????!!!!After MUCH prying, she finally deigned to tell me that the vacuum was discontinued and so, she ""guessed,"" were the bags.STELLAR COMPANY. WHAT TREMENDOUS CUSTOMER SERVICE.I suggest buying from this company only if you are very bored, want to spend a lot of time on hold on the phone, and don't really want to vaccum anyway."
17679,1,A Waste of Time,"The appeal of the original was that it was an animated version of the magazine. The appeal of the origial magazine was the mixture of styles, and the effortless ""bad boy"" attitude it exuded as a whole. As to the meandering plot? That was part of the appeal. If you didn't like one approach, there were at least three or more others that would turn you on! Heavy Metal 2000 misses the point entirely. It was flat, boring and felt like ""Walt Disney Gets a Woody"". I mean, it even had the same visual style of ""Beauty and the Beast"". The effortless adolescent raunch of #1 was replaced with the forced, ""Aren't we bad? tee-hee!""And get a load of the hero, a whiny genXer that the original Den would have snapped in two. He wasn't cool, he was a pain! The heroine just kept missing the mark. The whole thing was kid stuff!Don't waste your money, rent the second one and buy the first one and prepare to leave your brain at home!"
17684,1,AVOID WASTE OF MONEY,"I bought this CD thinking it would relax me after a long hard day at work, all it has managed to do is increase my blood pressure. Elza's voice is way out of tone and disturbing at times. Maybe she should take some voice lessons before attempting to record a CD...... the reason two stars were given is that the music is OK until Elza opens her mouth....... save your money..... Yanni's music is much more relaxing and you get your money's worth."
17730,1,"C'MON DOC WHERE TALKING CLINICAL DEATH, HERE.","As a former Paramedic I take a skeptic's view when reading about so called near death experiences or ""nde's"". The author, a cardiologist, should realize that nde's are just that. Just because your heart stops beating and you cease to breath you are not really dead, yet! That is called clinical death....real or bioligical death is several minutes away. Biological or brain death occurs as the neurons in the brain begin to die from hypoxia or lack of oxygen. This book is biased...fails to mention the diffrence between clinical and actual death."
17892,1,"Purchased on-line, no weight limit listed","My post baby weight was over 200lbs, if you are over 200 lbs, this is not for you. I was only a few pounds over that so I thought ""it will be safe"". Err! Wrong answer, I cracked the kneeler portion. What a blow to the postpartum ego."
17951,1,Dont waste your time it aint as good as you may imagine,First of all i thought this was a good album. I liked the singles Gimmie the light and Get Busy but that was about it.I was under the impression that with 20 tracks and a good beat this may be a good album guess i was wrong cause these layed out songs will put you to sleep my advice is to not buy this load of crap and download the singles cause that is the only thing good bout this cd and this is the truth.
17993,1,This movie screwed my life up,This movie screwed my head up.You probably have to be stoned to wach this.I will never look at anything the same again.
18032,1,Needs to Strengthen Itself,"This book was not very well written. I thought that the regimen was way too easy and that the programs moved along at a terribly slow pace. Also, the coaches from Nebraska didn't seem to know what they were talking about. I don't think they are very good coaches."
18076,1,An Unnatural Book...,"A grave disservice is being done to the earnest and hard-working Cryptozoologists worldwide everytime a newcomer to the subject cracks this book open. Not only is the book inaccurate in the valid facts it contains, it mixes the plausible with the fantastical, lumping wyverns, griffons, and manticores together with giant squid and the Sasquatch. Purportedly published under the auspices of the Cryptozoological Society of London (which doesn't exist), it is nothing more than a children's book portrayed as a scientific volume. Real Cryptozoological societies should be offended at this unabashed abuse of their hard work. Shame on the publishers. Relegate this one to stabilizing the broken leg on your kitchen table."
18120,1,I can't believe how dense some of you people are...,"Vlad, can't you detect sarcasm when you read it? Read the rest of MTV Rocks's reviews, friend! HE'S BEING SARCASTIC. HE AGREES WITH YOU. HE DOESN'T REALLY THINK FITTY CENT IS A TALENTED HOMEY. HE'S JOKING AROUND TO MAKE HIS POINT.I just don't understand it. So many people have criticized MTV Rocks on different reviews... the guy's obviously joking around! Am I really the only one who sees this?"
18168,1,Deeply Disappointed,"""With Teeth"" is a very strange title for this record, as it has none. It simply doesn't have the raw edge of all of his previous work. This morning I listened to this and then followed it with Pretty Hate Machine, just to get a direct comparison. PHM is *much* more lyrically and musically interesting and involving. You can tell that there was a lot of emotion that went into PHM, whereas ""With Teeth"" just doesn't feel like he put as much of himself into it, and none of the tracks have the musical complexity of past releases. There simply aren't as many or as interesting layers of sound in it. Makes me sad, because I've been a NIN fan for a long time, seen them live, was an awesome show, but next time they come through, I hope the live show avoids the new material..."
18321,1,Definitely a chick book...,"I tried to read it, but I couldn't. I put it down at about page 100. From a fan of IMMANUEL KANT, this was too boring. Honestly, after I put it down, I had to study the Diamond Sutra and the Book of Job to get the vapid feeling out of my head. Someone on here wrote something to the effect of ""as Blake saw the world in a grain of sand, so did Austen see the world in a drawing room"". To this, I'd say that there is a vast difference in seeing the world in a drawing room, and thinking that the world IS a drawing room.Basically, it felt way too narrow for me. I will admit that I dislike British culture, as a whole, and have yet to make it through a third Dickens novel (have tried four). Still, I am a huge fan of Fielding, Defoe, Chaucer, Shakespeare, Wordsworth, and like a few other English authors."
18456,1,a good water saver,My well produces 6 GPM. I have a tankless water heater and I waste water until the hot water arrives. I put the 4 gal. ariston in series with the water heater for the downstairs shower-it works great- instant hot water. I also put a 2 gal. ariston under the kitchen sink. They both save us water. The tankless water heater heats on demand so every time you turn the valve you fire up the water heater. In the kitchen I hooked the ariston to the cold water (it takes too long for hot water) Works fine for me since I do most of the dishes by hand. The fridge has cold water for drinking. These heaters are easy to install so it can be changed in about 5 min. Bill CA.
18478,1,Dark and dreary,A depressing read about deception in all its forms. Very well written just didn't like the story but at the same time I couldn't put it down because I was hoping for something happy. Weird ending as well.
18486,1,"Honest opinion of an intelligent, avid reader, unforced.","The writing is not half bad, the language flows well. I'll agree with other readers, it's hard to tell who's leading the narrative. It's also hard to tell the relations of the characters until quite a ways into the book. The story does not end up satisfying the reader. It's not really even much of a love story. It's quite a hate story. I'm glad I read it, but only because it kept me from buying it."
18534,1,Another Stupid cat book.,"I guess if you LOVE cats you might find this book tolerable. It is more interested in beating you over the head about how wonderful cats are than telling a meaningful story. An overly obvious take of on Watership Down except it is more interested in promotion of the ""humanity"" of kitty cats than in storytelling.Fritti is one of the shallowist fantasy characters in a long time. Provides a pethetic mouthpiece for the promotion of ""kitty cat philoshpy""AVOID AVOID AVOID"
18548,1,Read With Me DVD - too slow to respond,"I purchased this for my 5 and 3 yr old daughters - it took some patience to set up, but finally we were ready to play. Unfortunately, when playing the games on it and you press the buttons to answer the questions, it takes A LONG time for the program to respond - my daughter was very agitated with the controller and the fact that it was just sitting there - then FINALLY after 25 seconds, it responded by saying ""Correct"" - way too much patience expected for a 5 yr old. Fisher Price told me that is just how it works - we are sending it back to them for a voucher for other FP products..."
18556,1,"Once again,Callas NOT a Puccini soprano!!!!","Callas is wonderful in Verdi (Macbeth),good in Bellini (La Sonnambula) but really awful in Puccini.Not a single Puccinian role that she has performed has satisfied me.From Tosca to La Boheme (her worst).Puccini is all about emotions and this demands beautiful voice not shouting.Yes, acting is important but overacting is not.Callas as Butterfly is one more proof of the above.The best Butterflies are De Los Angeles,Tebaldi,Scotto.Anyone of these three will surely satisfy everyone who wants to feel Puccini."
18567,1,UFO,"this movie is kind a UFO... never seen in France (or very briefly), though Chevalier was French... the quality of the dvd is poor, but it's watchable. in fact, the movie suffers from a very bad cutting, directing.... suffers from everything: a good story spoiled. But Jayne is not overacting, which is an opportunity to see her ""au naturel"", not too bad an actresse at all! a few moments on the beach, in bikini, romancing with co star: she looks stunning! a pity the studios dropped her for so bad films."
18570,1,something wrong,"I hooked it up like the directions said and even tried a few other tricks. Nothing got it to work. Not sure if it was defective or not, just returned it. On the brighter side it was solidly built and had an excellent cable with it. Unknown why I couldn't get it to work"
18585,1,Kong the 8th wonder of the world: Electronic Kong arms,"I did not like the service I got when I bougth this product, because I ordered one set of arms, and I end up with 3 sets, 2 from the same order, wich i returned, and I got credit for only one, and as far as buying more stuff from you guys, I would think twice before doing it."
18621,1,The Freemasons: A History of the World's Most Powerful Secret Society,"The book open my eyes more about this great organzation, that i glad to be a part of"
18623,1,Disturbing and Difficult Read...,"I was a dedicated fan of Celine Dion before I read this book. Although I will always remain a fan of her music, I no longer respect Celine and her husband Rene. Celine portrays herself as a lovesick, immature and all around helpless woman who cannot survive one minute without her ailing, 26 year older husband. This book really is a homage to her husband more than a book about her career. I am aghast that Celine's family practically sold her out to Rene when she was barely a teenager and did nothing to stop his seduction of her. Don't waste your time and money on this book."
18630,1,musical emperor's new clothes,"This is musical emperor's new clothes. Nice and streamlined playing has really nothing to do with great performance. I would much prefer listening to Vladimir Horowitz' last recording (1978) of the d-minor concerto. His playing is so full of drama and colors, each note is imbued with urgency and passion. Horowitz' performance, moreso than any other, brings out the fully romantic nature of this concerto. Andsnes seems to lack some basic knowledge: Music is more than nice sound, more than speed and power, more than communication. Music mirrors life itself. ""If music be the food of love, play on"""
18677,1,Poorly constructed chest expander,The rubber tube is easily untouched from the fixture when you pull. This is because the ball inside both ends of the rubber tube is squeezed out of the tube.
18702,1,You cannot be serious!,"This is absoloutely dire. I've tried several times but can't get past the first 3 scenes. I'm glad I read the play before watching this or I would have been put off forever. To say it's a modern adaptation doesn't really describe it - it's more like a pantomime version with Montagues and Capulets not just as rival gangs but as owners of the town, with their respective names in lights on tall buildings. Its only insight is into the producer's self-aggrandisement. Yuk!"
18733,1,Geeeez...can't make myself finish it!,"I read all kinds of things - and read a lot. This is one of the few books I'm not even going to finish. The editing errors, problems with punctuation and continuity are distracting...and it's an easy book to get distracted from because it's just not believable. It reads like an amateur's work. I don't get how this has gotten such good reviews - I bought on the spur of the moment because of an Amazon suggestion (via Kindle)."
18816,1,THE WORST!,Dont spend your money on this! The whole CD is horrible! Jessica has gone wayyy down hill with her music.
18934,1,HO Train,"I was very disapointed in this item. It fell well short of what I expected. Even with the discount, In my opinion, this product is way way overpriced. The picture of the item on the web page was very misleading. It would have been nice if The web page had a more elaborate description to include the length of the item. I needed a HO Locomotive right away to use pulling our train around our Christmas tree. Amazon was very convenient, shipping was free and time was short. Item did arrive before the expected delivery date. The Locomotive was an HO but I had a constant problem keeping it on the rails especially when the train went through turnouts. When used with an assortment of various HO railroad cars the Locomotive looked to small and just didn't blend in at all. Since we only run the train at Christmas I will be shopping for a replacement before next Christmas."
18941,1,Too slow and boring...couldn't finish it.,"I got one-quarter through this book, and just couldn't endure it any longer. The plot moved at a snail's pace. Pages and pages were devoted to mundane events. The dialogue, especially that of Ian and Lacey, was incredibly hokey. Also, after the previous books painted Susa as this impressive, sophisticated woman, I found her portrayal in this book to be rather banal. Anyway, I have no idea how the book turns out, and I don't care. Don't waste your money."
19024,1,"Interesting, but another point on a downward trajectory","Eco's ""The Name of The Rose"" was a dense but excellent multilayered novel of medieval thought, history and politics cleverly organized by a plot aimed more at revealing the mindset of a changing period than telling a 'story' per se. ""Foucault's Pendulum"" attempted, less successfully, to do the same thing. With this novel Eco appears to have concluded that history is interesting enough not to require more than the most casual of plots to introduce; he's wrong. We've seen most of these ideas before, especially the thinly-disguised mean-spirited anti-clericalism that fuels the novel's 'wit'. Eco desperately needs the discipline of working in the short-story format!"
19041,1,Any more than 2 stars and you are just an Amy worshiper.,She has a killer voice and backed up with the real world passion of her origional back was a match made in heaven. This new thrown together corporate money grabber depends on the briliance of Amy's voice to sell it. Just another example of hype for the masses. This album has no teeth. It makes great mall/elevator music though.
19071,1,Lose Your Illusion...,"I really try to like this, I do. There are about 2 tracks on this disc that sound okay. The rest sound complacent, burned-out and just plain tired. But the dull song structure, the indifferent singing and the ""30 layers midrandge"" sound mix do not a brilliant CD make. As washed-up '80s bands go, the Cult's last CD creates a far better illusion of a real band at work. I credit the failure of this Velvet Revolver release to a lack of texture in Slash's rhythm sounds, Weiland's semi-comatose state impairing his very slight talent, and a general lapse of creativity - really, how much can you do to save such a swaggering dogpile just with clever mixing and a brilliant drummer?"
19114,1,Junk,"A jointer is supposed to allow you to put a square edge on stock (so, for example, you could join them together with glue and have a flat surface).This machine's fence is so poorly thought out, I wonder if Delta had anyone test it before they went into production.No matter how hard you lock it down (assuming you can get it square to the bed, which is a big assumption), it flexs, so it is just about impossible to get a square edge.I may try to make a fence of my own, perhaps a fixed wooden fence with the whole jointer on some sort of hinge. Otherwise, it's pretty worthless.dan"
19205,1,Static!,You can barely hear the music over the static. Thought it might just be our car so we tried a couple friends' cars and it was the same. Total waste of money.
19226,1,Mold and mildew Yuk,"This machine was rediculous. It was returned within 3 weeks. It would constantly ask you to clean the milk unit and run the cleaning cycle every day. If you do not, it builds up mold and mildew. Was a nightmare.The touch screen did not work well either. You press one thing and another function was activated.done with Saeco"
19236,1,Who needs sound anyway?,"I bought the DVD with an eye toward using it in a forensic evidence class. Unfortunately, the sound on the video is dismal. The doctor mumbles and the other pathologists look like deer in headlights. You would think there might be more than one choice for a topic as educational as an autopsy.The reviewer who mentioned lack of context is exactly right. No history was provided, and to come to closure on the actual c/o/d was no small accomplishment either."
19244,1,Painful to read: cliched and factually wrong,"I read this after reading Clifford Stoll's Cuckoo's Egg which is a much better book on the same subject matter. Stoll is just a smart and observant graduate student who simply tries to tell his story accurately. The 2 authors of Masters of Deception are apparently professional writers and they spend too much time trying to liven up what is essentially an account of high school and college kids playing on computers. You get the feeling they writing this with a screenplay in mind. The book is filled with cliches, bad metaphors, contrived rhetorical questions: ""Destroy people's lives? Make them look like saints? Is this what hackers do?"" There is very little interesting technical info and much of what there is is dumbed down and often wrong. The discussion of tymnet in chapter 13 is completely off. They obviously don't understand it. Cuckoo's Egg is much better and even the Littman books are better books on the same topic."
19282,1,Chuck and Buck,"I'm not sure why people find this movie funny. Its not funny, its depressing. The entire movie is about one persons misery and how he tries to cope with suppressed childhood homosexuality. I was expecting a dark comedy, which its not."
19309,1,Broken,"As numerous people of commented, they do not seem to be able to ship this without breaking it. Also, it's just not as cool as the toy you remember from your childhood. I wanted to love this, but can not even like it."
19312,1,Creative style but ...,"I read it on a business trip because that's all I had to read, but once I got access to a different book- only a few scant pages from the end, I happily traded it in."
19318,1,Still Haven't Received Book,30 days after shipping and 4 emails to the seller later and I still haven't received my book. Wonder if they plan on getting around to it before the semester concludes?
19461,1,The system didn't work in the long haul,"I first read this book in my teens, twenty-five years ago. I thought it was wonderful and I based a large part of my life and who I was on its instructions. It worked to some extent - people told me I was very feminine. Well, being feminine didn't do me much good. Here I am, twenty-five years later, with a husband who refuses to work or be a father to his children. I am the family's breadwinner and the children's guide and disciplinarian. My husband lives at home like a overgrown teenager who lets Mom bear all the responsibilities. I feel like I've been duped. I based my life on system that didn't deliver for me."
19484,1,Bad transfer ruins good movie,"This transfer suffers from the same problems reported by other Amazon shoppers for the D3K edition of ""Charade"". It seems like D3K masters their discs from broadcasts by Encore or AMC. Unless you've got to have it, wait for some else to do a better job or buy the VHS."
19499,1,Pretentious drivel,Dum-de dah-dee dah dah ...... Totally absent from this heap of mediocrity . As exciting as a slow release of gas under one's seat . And about as meaningful .
19508,1,I never received this product from Amazon,I never received this product from Amazon. Amazon ignored my e-mail telling them that I did not receive this product. Apparently there is no accountability of who received this product at my address. I now purchase this product from another company even though I am an amazon affiliate with their products on a number of websites.
19513,1,Talk about a Bad Concept,"This product would have been better if they would have created their templates built over existing MS Office programs, so that the functionalities inherent to Word/Powerpoint/Excel could be taken advantage of, and so that you could, for example, paste in your concept map as a powerpoint slide, etc.Instead, they created their own little proprietary software which is so limited that it makes it inflexible.In the future, they should just build it over MS office- everyone with a PC or a Mac can use Office. Then Mosby could even sell more copies every time Microsoft came up with a new version of office. I don't see why they are trying to re-invent the wheel.Mosby comes into Nursing classes with their sales force in the beginning and tries to sell us on the idea of their whole Evolve System & resources, some components of the system fall short and don't work together. This is one of those. I don't recommend it."
19517,1,"Hmm, not bad for America :P","Konnichi wa! If you look at reviews of a few other SM videos you may recognize Usagi-Bunny. I don't watch many dubs, but before I discovered the subbed Sailormoon S I was a dubbie. :p Baka me! Anyway, on to the movie. It was *okay*. I didn't give it one star because I liked the ep where they defeated Jedite. (Jadeite is the CORRECT spelling)! I wish they had this movie subtitled and in my beloved Japanese. :) I am not Japanese (most of us on here aren't) but I am learning it and I've fallen in love with this language. Sailor Mars is *okay* but I like her better in the Japanese."
19545,1,Crummy re-recordings,These aren't the recordings you remember and they just doesn't have the punch. Very weak.
19570,1,UGH!,"I bought this DVD in mid June, 2001 primarily because I missed the MINI SERIES when it showed on TV. Before I received it, I was able to see it on a neighbor's system. Watching this version was somewhat of a LET-DOWN. It is NOT even close QUALITY WISE [acting, video or audio effects], to the 1984 version. When my copy arrived from AMAZON, I unwrapped it and filed it away for viewing on a rainy day. [At the time I had about 1000 DVDs in my collection. Now I have more] About 6 months later, I pulled it out to watch on my JVC DVD changer. It skipped so much that I STOPPED my DVD player and put it back in my collection and grabbed something else to watch. As of JANUARY 2006, this is the only DVD that WON'T play on my system. This DVD deserves a [0] star rating."
19655,1,Real fiction,"Seems that James Patterson has taken a turn, in this book anyway, towards the likes of Jackie Collins. Filled with Harlequin-esque romantics, and none of his usual suspense-filled storylines."
19674,1,Bleek needs to stop!,"Rocafella has truly fell off. I've never really been a Bleek fan but this has to be Bleek's worst album. I did not think he can do worse than MADE but it looks like I was wrong! NEwayz if I were you i wouldn't even take my time to listen to the album if it weren't for one song ""Dear Summer"" and Bleeks not even on it just Hov."
19680,1,Love Johnson? Keep looking,"A good source for minute information, this book functions better as a reference book than a comprehensive take on 18th century London. Readers should be advised that the first few chapters are heavy on the development of bridges and neighborhoods and such, yet there are no accompanying maps. If you are good at picturing how one lane leads into another and so on, this will be a delight. I found it extremely frustrating.The other immediate and annoying aspect is that, as other reviewers have correctly noted, Ms. Parks is no Johnsonian. Those who unluckily appreciate the Life do not understand his conversation for what it was - ""bad manners."" I feel that she uses his name to sell a work that could otherwise stand on its own. (Or maybe as ""Horace Walpole's London."") In any case, those expecting to find the comfort and familiar parlance of the big guy are going to be sorely wanting, as I was, for the late, great Mary Hyde."
19733,1,Vulgar does not equal funny,"Well, I will admit that I am a big Jim Carrey fan. I will also admit that this movie was not very good. There are some funny parts that are quite vulgar, but overall the movie is a complete waste of time.Jim Carrey tries to find humor in being obscene (yes, obscene even for him), but many of the sick jokes fall flat. There is almost no plot at all (not that I really expected any). This movie could have been about 15 minutes, not 90. For some reason people often find profanity funny; I think that this is often an overseen mistake with many comedy script writers. Not funny. Don't bother with this one. ..."
19761,1,Didn't like the tone,"I realize that Dummies books are supposed to be fun, but this one can be just plain silly at times. At one point, the authors suggest that when a woman is in transition, her husband should ""promise her some expensive jewelry...promise to do all the cooking and cleaning for the next year...do whatever she says, even if she tells you to shut up"" and so on. I found this a little condescending and silly, as did my husband.I don't think the problem is with the authors, however. I think that pregnancy simply isn't a topic that lends itself well to a Dummies book. I had similar misgivings about the Idiot's Guide to Bringing Up Baby, too. I think some subjects are best handled in a format other than Dummies and Idiot's Guides. Now if someone would just write the Smart Yet Neurotic Woman's Guide to Pregnancy, that would be the book for me!"
19778,1,over the top in unrefined distastefulness and disrespect for God,"a deeply confused soul who needs profanity, self-absorbed cutesiness and bitterness to make her shallow points. prayers to Our Father God are offered to have the Bible change her life, lifestyle and vocabulary to be a sweet-smelling fragrance before the Lord Jesus and those needing Christ's forgiveness, recovery and restoration."
19819,1,Horrible picture quality!,Room 222: Season OneDon't waste your money on this DVD collection. Upon immediate viewing you will notice that the distributor spent absolutely no money on remastering from the original television series. The picture quality is beyond poor. I was expecting quality equivalent to the Mod Squad series releases. I wouldn't even spend the money on a VHS version of this.
19875,1,Minus 10000 stars,"This book is complete garbage. There is nothing in it that is factual. If you want to read tabloid material please go buy ""National Enquirer"" or something.. Don't give your hard earned money or attention to this guy. He never knew The Harrison's and the book is fabricated stories by zealous bad author. Please go buy George's book ""I Me Mine"" or The Beatles 'Anthology"" book is want to learn the truth about the man."
19902,1,Going to Try Microsoft Money,"I have been using Quicken longer than I can remember. But like most of the recent reviewers here, I learned that Intuit will DISABLE the online download in Quicken 2004. In other words, one of the MOST IMPORTANT feature/reason you buy a money management software will be disabled three years after its release, forcing you to upgrade and give Intuit more money. I can understand if they won't support the product anymore, but blatantly disabling critical features is NOT acceptable. Imagine using Windows 98, and Microsoft decides you cannot surf the web anymore after 3 years, forcing you to buy Windows XP. I was considering upgrading but after reading all the problems/bugs it has from other reviews, I have decided not to send any more money to Intuit in protest.I hope Intuit read these reviews and is realizing they are losing their loyal customers. This is really bad and unethical business practices. I am guessing there will be a class action lawsuit soon."
19917,1,time line challenged,"I had problems with this book early on, I slogged on...page 77..Mrs. Purvis is shot, her heart is nicked---coma----page 173-TWO days later she is home and doing needlepoint...page 178 I quit--I coulnd't finish the book---"
19962,1,blech,"I like watching beautiful naked women get it on as much as the next guy, but two women rubbing themselves against each other doesn't count as sex in my book. The script (what little there is of it) and acting are also pretty bad, not that either of those things is particularly important in this kind of film. Even if the sex scenes were genuinely erotic, though, the whole thing is so badly filmed it's damn near unwatchable. I kept cleaning my glasses, thinking it would help the wretched visual quality. You'd have to be a pretty nondiscriminating sex film fan to like this. Try The Erotic Witch Project or Girl Explores Girl: Alien Encounter instead."
19992,1,Awesome when it worked,"I really enjoyed my Zen, when it worked. The first one I ordered I had to return becuase it would only play every other song, and after it started acting up all the lights would start blinking and I would have to take out the battery to make it stop. So, I exchanged it for a new one, and just like the other after only one week the lights started going crazy again, it would freeze up, and would only play 5 seconds of every song. What I liked about it, for the small amount of time I had it was the sound quality, the choice in colors, and the fact that it was so much cheaper than other models with the same amount of storage space. I'm not sure I would recommend it becuase of the fact that they both only worked for a few days. Now I have an Iriver Clix and have had no problems. It has less storage but I don't care, it is easier to control and I haven't had problems with it."
20063,1,good luck actually getting the magazine,"i wouldn't know if this was a good magazine, i have yet to receive it, after waiting three months. it is cheaper to order through food and wine website anyway."
20128,1,"Puzzling, good at parts not at others.","The book and current film have some similarities, however, when dealing with the book one faces oddities:Where does the epic begin and the children's tale end?One can see Tolkien's style changing as the book goes on.The 'songs' (chants?) are somewhat offputting. I was unsure of what to make of them.As far as the Tom Bombadil character: What is his purpose? Is he symbolizing something or an error in the plot?A long work, yes? The films are visually extraordinary, but I wonder if NOT reading the books puts one at a disadvantage when seeing them (the films).""The Shadow of the Past"" chapter is probably the best in this first book of the trilogy inasmuch as it explains a great deal of background.Personally I prefer the third book ""Return of the King""."
20169,1,Cheaper at the grocery,"These are $34.99 at Publix grocery store. Plus, you can use coupons at the store. I didn't find anywhere to use them on Amazon."
20180,1,terrible diapers!,"Who designed the shape of Pamper diapers? I feel it is the worst shape for a diaper. Its tab is far blow waist position , which induces my son leaking poos from back and leaking pees from sides. To avoid leaking, I have to tightly package him, which induce red inprint on his legs. I bought Huggies diapers and Especially for Baby diapers for my son. He seems comfortable in them. Most important, no leaking happens any more! My son weight only 15 lbs."
20208,1,"Don't order this from Amazon, order somewhere else","Ordered in October, told to expect the first issue to come in January--that's slow even by magazine standards (and beyond the 6-10 week estimate as well).Part of this is due to the 6 issues/year publication cycle, but like I said, it is well outside the 6-10 week estimate given by Amazon, which is unfortunate."
20212,1,"NOT APPROPRIATE FOR KIDS!!! SEX JOKES, PROFANITY,SIMULATED N","THE GRINCH MUST HAVE WRITTEN IT, AS IT IS FULL OF SEX JOKES, SIMULATED NUDITY AND BARELY BLEEPED OUT PROFANITY. THE ACTING IS THE WORST YOU WILL EVER SEE. MIKE MYERS IS DOING A DEAD ON IMPRESSION OF THE COWARDLY LION, BUT IS WASTED HERE. DAKOTA'S ACTING IS GREAT BUT SHE IS WORKING IN A VACUME. THE FILMMAKER'S MUST HATE KIDS AS IT IS WILDLY INAPPROPRIATE FOR THEM. IT IS NOWHERE NEAR THE QUALITY OF THE GRINCH WHICH WAS NO MASTERPIECE.THE PHOTOGRAPHY IS TERRIBLE, WITH THE ACTORS ALWAYS DEAD CENTER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PICTURE.WHAT A MEANSPIRITED TREATMENT OF THE MATERIAL. NO LAUGHS HERE EITHER."
20283,1,Very poor,Lines of the text not properly aligned on page of my Kindle. Doesn't seem to be a list of chapters at beginning.
20347,1,Cheap Truck,"I bought this truck for my 2 year old. He ends up crying everytime he tries to play with it. The sides of the truck do not stay on no matter how I try to secure them. He gets very frustrated when the sides fall off.The boxes in the back are cheap cardboard and not durable at all.The sounds the truck makes are very short. The box indicates there is a demo mode, on mode and reset. There are only a demo mode and reset.My son has fun playing with the truck and keeps coming back to it but tears ensue every time. I expected with a name like Tonka it would be a little more durable and child friendly."
20387,1,Expected so much more!,"I love Sophie Kinsella's books and thought I would enjoy one with her as Madeleine Wickham, but this was just not even close to the quality I was expecting from her. I found myself quickly skimming just to get to the end and call it a day. It was not a ""page-turner"" in a positive sense of the phrase. I did not feel attached to any particular characters. The plot jumped around which made certain excerpts seem pointless to the storyline. The nanny was just downright annoying. I'm all for characters you love to hate, but there was no love here. The whole reason behind the two families getting stuck at the same villa was stupid. I was hoping for a clever reason behind it all, but I was extremely let down."
20398,1,Constant erros with the kindle version,I have to keep flipping back to the non illustrated version because the type is messed up on this version.
20442,1,Terrible Textbook,I am 3rd year undergraduate student and just finished taking a class that requires this book. This book was so unhelpful in trying to do assignments or even understand the text. As a matter of fact you will be in chapter 8 trying to reference an algorithm in chapter 1. You end up spending to much time trying to find information that is not even in this book.This book is GARBAGE!!!!! If your professor requires this book. Drop the class immediately!!!! I feel this book is an insult to any professor who teaches Design and Analysis of Algorithms!!!Someone needs to ask the authors if we all can have our money back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
20464,1,Is this supposed to be pop-rock or something,"Man, what is this? VH1 plays these guys to death and it drove me insane. You can't call this rock at all, if you do ,you need to start listening to REAL rock like Metallica, Pantera or Napalm Death, THAT is rock, not this. No matter how may videos I saw from the Poo Poo Dolls, I thought it was absolute garbage. It's more like easy listening or contemporary to me. but regardless of that, I wouldn't get this CD if it was free which it should be,cuz it totally ssssuuuuccckkksss!!!!!!!!!"
20480,1,Get the Mobi Tyke Light instead,"I have had to write to the company for a new charger twice after these lights stopped working for no reason. The Mobi light is a much better, more durable product, and the battery lasts far longer. These vessel candeloo lights are attractive but a big disappointment."
20541,1,Incredibly confusing,"There was so much hype over this book, especially thanks to Oprah, that I figured it had to be a great read. On the contrary, it ranks as one of the most confusing, incomprehensible books I ever read. I tried to follow it as best as could but I gave up 1/4 of the way through and donated the book. The plot's confusing, the characters aren't introduced, it's almost impossible to tell which character is talking, etc."
20628,1,waste of time from a physicist,"Shermes book is a boring, unoriginal, rehash of old arguments for and against the existance of God. The single fact of the matter, which is never addressed, is that at the very earliest stages (nanoseconds) of the big bang universe, all the law of physics where known beforehand...that is unrefutable fact as far as anyone can mathematically or experimentally prove.The universe, as stated by Freeman Dyson and others, is ""surely the greatest put-up job imaginable."" If that isnt an argument (along with the thousands of ""coincidences"" that are necessary for life even over billions of years of evolution)for design, I dont know what is. ""Skeptics"" should finally get their collective heads out of the collective sand."
20631,1,"Journal part OK, Shopping Guide is a joke","The journal content is good, but the book is a typically-bound softcover which does not lend well to journaling (spiral-bound books which lay open flat or fold back are much better). The biggest disappointment was the Shopping Guide section which, according to the front of the book, ""features shopping lists for fat-flushing foods"". They are merely bulleted lists of foods used in each phase of the plan, grouped by category (vegetables, proteins, etc.) It would have been more helpful to have actual shopping lists by week, based on the plan menus."
20709,1,DVD-production disaster,"The story is entertaining enough, but there is not much joy from viewing this DVD. The problem is that the folks producing it apparently were trying to win the contest for the DVD having the world's squattest image. It is EXTREMELY letterboxed WITHIN a 16:9 widescreen format. Even your zoom function won't help you, because the producers moved the subtitles into the black-bar region (and the subtitles are about 2/3 the height of the image itself. The movie becomes simply uninvolving when you see low-resolution images on a thin ribbon across the screen."
20848,1,Sucked,This Movie Was terrible i hated the whole thing the fans were good but the Matches are Like Monkey Crap!! Smell What the Rock Is cookin?-the Rock (joe)
20918,1,Too bad Universal won't bother to fix defective discs.,"Well, I just picked up this set and, BRAVO UNIVERSAL, as of 12/20/2011 this set is still not fixed. Do a quick search on the internet and you'll see what I'm talking about.Just as described by several people here, the first three episodes play fine and then right around the 4 minute mark of episode four the disc freezes, sputters and skips ahead about 60 seconds. I haven't bothered to play the other discs, but there are widespread reports about problems with them as well.I've turned off access to the internet on the player (as some have suggested) and that doesn't do anything. I'm exchanging it, but don't have high hopes that the new one will work either.Looks like I'll either forget about this season or be forced to buy it on DVD. Again, BRAVO UNIVERSAL!"
20974,1,Not what I had hoped,"Maybe I did not read the fine print, but I was disappointed in the quality of this book. It looks like a very high quality fake. My primary gripe is with the cover. I have owned this book in softcover and the hardcover looks like someone scanned the softcover and printed it in their back room. The text looks fine and if you are just looking to read the book, nothing more, I am sure it is fine. If that was what I wanted though I would have paid 5 bucks for a softcover. I was looking for something a bit more collectible. Something that would look nice on my bookshelf."
20992,1,Ludicrous,"CD/abridged/Thriller: This was book 18 of the Dr. Alan Gregory series, which I had never heard of. This book read more like a cheesy Patterson book. A bloody body is found dead in a theater and it looks like the killer may actually be a group of people enacting the murder on stage. Some may be watching the murder while masturbating; tho outlandish. Alan is brought to the scene and asked to help the police with a profile. Of course, Alan gets in over his head looking for the murderers. Just....skip it."
21005,1,Do you like SCOOBY DOO?,"These cartoons are typical of late-1970s Hanna-Barbera TV output: cheap, poorly-animated, and horribly hampered by ridiculous network standards and practices. They stink."
21021,1,misleading planning & time frames for a beginner,"unfortunately, the magical transformation of the author into a competitive athlete is a unique event, not one that readers will replicate easily (or ever!), especially following the plans inside.the author ignores the base building necessary to race the events. athletes need to train their musculoskeletal structure to take the abuse of workouts as much as they need to get their hearts up to speed. this is best done slowly and incrementally. i think if you have been a regular athlete for at least a year before using the plan in this book, you may be fine.if you are beginning in any of the three sports, i'd advise another book to show the real process of developing the appropriate base needed to compete without injury. Look up the titles by Joe Friel for more complete information on how to structure a training plan."
21032,1,his third worst,"Dissapointing. Young can play just about any genre well and country is no exception. The reason is: you believe him. He's not faking it. On Old Ways, he sounds like he's faking it. He sings these cover songs like he's at a kareoke. Worst of all, he sings with a twang that is equal parts irritating and laughable. Maybe that was his point--showing the world he didn't care. This album does kind of come across as an inside joke. Buy this album only if you're a Young completist. Otherwise, stay away. Trust me."
21049,1,Ted's explanation of the band.,"The second half of this '2-LPs on one CD' disc is a very listenable collection of English ""folk"" tunes (Greenseleeves, Lincolnshire Poacher, London Bridge, etc). The first half (all 24 cuts of it)is a wonderfully entertaining, crisp and lucid explanation of how the instruments in a modern dance band line up, blend, and generally produce fine music. It includes an explanation of how Glenn Miller first achieved his unique sound. As well as educational, it is highly listenable."
21137,1,don't buy this,"I bought 2 of these 1 for home and 1 for the office. I wish i could return them. this calculator doesn't work very well and I have made so many mistakes with thisI have lost confidence in their accuracy. Adding 16 numbers in a column on a tax form 6 times( you know add it then check it) I only got the same answer twice!!! and that turned out to be a wrong answer!!Division has similar fun results. I suspect the processors are faulty, And the battery is not replacable so it a throw-away!"
21147,1,Didn't Live Up to the Promises,"Purchased this for my granddaughter's birthday and she wanted to try it out right away. 3 children and 2 adults tried to make these animals. Problem is it simply doesn't stay stuck together unless you make something simply like a round ball. The little plastic pieces would not stay for 2 seconds. It seems that in creating something that doesn't make a mess, which was a successful feature, they somehow made it so that it won't stay molded. All of us grew frustrated. I would not recommend this because while being no mess, it does not work well, and was no fun for the kids. Stick with PlayDoh, at least it sticks."
21207,1,This could kill your dog,"I gave this product to my dog twice and it made her break out into bad hives. I contacted Entirely pets, the shipper, and they would not give me back my money. All my dog used was 1/2 tsp.-She's 5 lbs. If you do order this product, don't order from them."
21318,1,Not recommended,"Oi vey! What an odd book. If you enjoy talking to yourself and shouting at the top of your voice for a few hours a day, then this book is for you.It's not about mental toughness, it's about screaming affirmations, ""with feeling behind it.""Please don't buy this!"
21319,1,What a load of ****,"Dan couldn't motive Punxsutawney Phil to look for his shadow. Where does he come up with this stuff? It's so clearly a bad rehash of other self-help books. Did he even do any research? And what makes him qualified to ""teach"" this stuff? Maybe Martha Stewart heard him speak. If companies really do hire him, it's no wonder American business is losing its competitive edge. What he professes seems in line with the moral and ethical decline of ""Corporate America."" Heck, he probably writes his own reviews on Amazon. I can't believe I wasted any money on this book. At least I'll have kindling for next winter."
21328,1,Unoriginal,"I really found this album unoriginal. I've read the artist admires Alanis Morissette and this album sounds as if Alanis had made a bad spanish record. It's evident in the singer's style that Alanis is an inspiration, but Shakira comes across as attempting to be Alanis Morissette. Hopefully the artist will learn from this mistake and evolve a distinctive style of her own. Coming from a country as rich in music as Colombia is, this album was a let down."
21388,1,Dangerous side effects,"My doctor gave me Thorne Profusia-SR to improve my circulation and, though I felt good for about two hours after taking Profusia-SR, it began a series of scary nighttime heart and breathing episodes that nearly had me in the ER! My pulse and O2 saturation were jumping all over the place. I had many palpitations and felt more weak and tired than ever! Then when I stopped the Profusia-SR, the symptoms continued for another couple of nights. I will never take it again!! People with any prior heart issues beware!!"
21425,1,Where is the speech?????,"This home made DVD has everything except what it's suppose to have...The actual ""I have a dream speech""!! It goes right up to the moment MLK is introduced to the podium and then dissolves to him leaving!!! Don't buy unlees you want B-fotage of the event!!"
21484,1,Aw man!,So much promise but so little effort! This really could have been done well but wasn't. My love for Adam West and Burt Ward were the only reasons I got this. Frank Gorshin's Riddler was a delight to see again as well!
21551,1,Nice people who can't sing,"I'm sure this group was lots of fun at parties and very pleasant conversationalists. However, they can't sing a note and can barely play their instruments. One of the worst records ever made, worse than Soft Machine, and that's saying something."
21598,1,machina - not much to be desired.,"machina - the machines of god is, in my opinion, quite likely the worst pumpkins release to date. the songs are for the most part boring and unmelodic. (and this coming from a die-hard pumpkins fan!) even adore had fairly strong melodies throughout. also, machina was promised to be the pumpkins striking back at the world that scorned them. it was touted to be their new rock and roll anthem. i find this album almost completely devoid of rock, with few exceptions (i.e.-the everlasting gaze, heavy metal machine). the pumpkins seem to have lost their flair for beautiful riff-based songs. listen to siamese dream and then compare with the new machina. the new release has virtually no catchy guitar hooks. i understand the princeple of musical evolution, but i think that we've lost the pumpkins that we'd come to know and love. they've de-volved into something that, quite frankly, i just don't understand or appreciate."
21628,1,Quite possibly the worst piece of literature I have ever read.,"As I sit here trying to write an essay for this book for my AP English class, I get more and more frustrated with the crock of horse crap that is this book. There is nothing to say about this book other than that it's about whiny rich British people being whiny rich British people. Unless your idea of excitement is attempting to immerse yourself in pretentious 20th century drivel about party planning, stay far away from this book. Far, far away. If you want a stream of consciousness book that's far more exciting and engaging, try Faulkner's As I Lay Dying."
21635,1,my ears my ears!!!,"Absinthe Blind is by far the worst band to ever come out of the famed champaign-urbana music scene, there second album is no better then their first...if not worse...1 star is the minimum i could give it...i would give it worse if possible....repetative and i detect way to much of a pink floyd influence."
21711,1,"The DVD Stinks, what a WASTE on such a GREAT Movie !","Don't need to add more that others have already said about the feature itself, but the DVD now that's another story.I don't write many reviews, but I felt it my duty to let other buyers know before purchasing this DVD that quality is VERY VERY POOR !!! It's almost unwatchable in my eyes, especially if viewing a LARGE format WS projection system.You were warned, buy it only for the content and not the DVD quality or special features, cuz there isn't any !!!!Signed,Disappointed"
21733,1,A whole lot of NOTHING,"That's what you'll get. Well, you'll get a lot of nattering, tight-lipped, skirt-smoothing, whining Aes Seda, pages of mundane information, and even more splintered sub-plot lines and new characters. But hey, you've been getting that for the last umpteen books. Cripes, why do I keep reading this series? Because with each new book there's still a glimmer of hope that it will GO SOMEWHERE. But, as with the last few books it goes NOWHERE and it doesn't even get there fast. I *never* skip paragraphs when reading a book for the first time but I found myself skipping page after page in this snail fest. This is the worst so far. Mr. Jordan... it is becoming ever obvious that you are milking this. Just finish it for crying out loud. Please end the misery for us all."
21746,1,I waited two years for this?!?,"It's official. The magic is gone. There was once a time when I couldn't put down an Eye of the World volume. Now, I can't wait for them to end.For those interested in purchasing Book 10 -- visit a bookstore and read the hardcover jacket. You'll get all of what happens in COT there, plus a couple mentions of things that don't.Lemme see... Mat moves about 30 miles up the road from where we last saw him. Perrin chases the Shaido a bit, stops to replenish his food supply, and frets about Faile. Elayne meets with a couple teenagers to gain their support for her bid for the Lion Throne. Rand does nothing. Egwene plots about how to retake the White Tower, and then is ridiculously captured.And that's it. Folks, it's getting ugly out there."
21747,1,Absolutely Nothing,Nothing happens? Absolutely nothing! 680 pages and the characters do nothing. Oh wait...you do get a bunch of tertiary new characters who do nothing but confuse. Jordan has said on NUMEROUS occasions he knows what the last scene is in this series. I begin to believe he doesn't know how to get there.
21801,1,Thank goodness for libraries,"(with apologies to Winston Churchill)Never in the history of Fantasy novels have so few (Jordan), written so much (this book) and achieved so little (plot advancement).The guy is just in it for the money. I'm glad I got it from the library. If you want engrossing fantasy, try Stephen Erikson."
21802,1,I'm Convinced--the series now stinks,"Yes, the book is a disgraceful mess. Authors are notoriously self-indulgent at times, but Jordan really seems to have gone off the deep end here. His publisher must be terrified that everyone will catch on (the plot has become ""let's make more money and string the readers along as long as possible"") and bail out. Fortunately, [others] seem to realize, all too well, that the fix is on and this book is an insult to all of the WoT's faithful fans. That so many reviews have misspellings and grammical errors shows to me that they were written in a grip of angry passion about the book's myriad shortcomings and Jordan's inexcusable money-grubbing. Give it up, readers!..."
21812,1,Major Diappointment,"I have read all of the books in this series and have found the last two to be major disappointments when compared to the first 2 or 3. As one reviewer mentioned, 600 pages and nothing has happened. Quite frankly I couldn't care less how descriptive the dress of any certain individual is. I mean I read half a page to see what the person is wearing, nothing but fluff.To wait 2 years for this book and to read almost 700 pages of fluff. A major diappointment. Jordan says he plans on writing at least 2 more books in this series. The way the action has gone in the last 2 or 3 books, it would take another 10 to get to the fianl battle."
21829,1,Support your local library,"Save your money and get this from a library. Mr Jordan has milked this tale long enough. It's a pity he does not respect the readers enough to end it. Prequel? Nah, I wanted an end to the story, not more beginings."
21845,1,Very let down,I agree that this series has become very drawn out with the last couple of books and this book has just made it alot worse.It's amazing the amount of irrelevant details that this book contains. the only detail that I can think of that Robert Jordan missed out is how long Matts hair nose has grown from page to page.
21856,1,The local library...,"I urge you not to buy this book. It seems RJ has decided to prolong WOT indefinantly. I found myself skimming most of this episode, searching for a glimpse of interest or a glimmer of plot advancement. It seems RJ has run out of ideas and decided to bore us senseless. The book focuses on Elayne and her strive to attain the crown - probably the most uninteresting part of the whole series. So, check it out at the local library but don't waste your money on it."
21879,1,Very disappointing,"I was looking forward to a verbal journey. A talk with musicians and poets, historians and purveyors of folklore. And I got a little of that. Very little.This is a very short volume, and more than I'd like is made up of excerpts of past books. This should be a little spice for the stew, not a major ingredient.In the whole, it reads as a dry (and there is the main problem, it is dry) history lesson.Again it is short. It would have worked as well as a long magazine article."
21962,1,Weak Character Development and Plot,"Goodnight Moon? Ha! What a joke. Margaret Wise doesn't seem too wise to me, writing foolish books about bears in chairs and bowls of mush. What is mush? What is that? It looks utterly disgusting, like something they would feed you at a nursing home.I also don't want my child (who is a beautiful baby boy) saying goodnight to his food. That's just plain weird. Even though I never intend to feed him the ""mush"" the mother forces down her child's throat in this gut-wrenching novel, I don't want kids to make fun of him on the playground when he waves goodbye to his PB&J; as he throws it out.If you want messed up kids, read them this book. It'll mess with their heads. Goodnight bowl of mush? Are you serious? What is mush? Don't even get me started."
21991,1,Not an Historical Novel,"This book was written very well, but it offended. The south did not win the war, and rightly so. If you want to read about the battle of Gettysburg, read Killer Angels -- it is the real story, which cannot be improved upon. What will be next, Newt writing a book about Hitler winning WWII? This book is an insult to the thousands of men who gave their lives to keep our county in one piece."
21994,1,1 Hour was not Enough,"So many plotholes I dare not go into them here. This being 1 hour in length there were so many scenes that raised questions which were never answered. While Corbin Bernson stole the scenes by nailing down his seedy lawyer character in the first half hour, the film then falls apart as it abruptly tries to become horrific but so many unecesary scenes are added from out of nowhere with no resolution. It seems as though this was meant to have been at least 100 minutes, but scenes were deleted resulting in a film which could have been decent, but instead turns out to be a waste of time."
22013,1,AVOID This movie,"Despite I am a big fan of Mr. Owen Wilson, I have to say that with this movie he has reach a deep bottom.This movie is not funny at all. If you have extra money, don't invest in this movie; give it to some veteran association."
22046,1,Boring Band,"A few months ago I went to a Tantric concert in Louisville, KY because my friend likes them. A band called Silvertide was opening for them, and let me just say Tantric was pahetic compared to them. The crowd sucked, that's why I hate modern alternative rock bands like this...the fan base is as boring as the music. All the people did was stand and watch. At the beginning of one song the Tantric's singer said ""This is for all you headbangers and moshers out there"" as if he expected someone to actually make a big movement like that, and I hope he didn't, 'cause if he did, he was disappointed. Simply put: the opening band blow the headliners away. How sad is that?"
22061,1,Horrible products,These two trimmers are probably the cheapest pieces of trash I've ever wasted money on. The little trimmer didn't work from arrival and the bikini trimmer died after 2 uses. DON'T waste your money!
22110,1,More of a novelty book than actual substance...,"I bought this book thinking I would love to know the tricks of the trade for writing chick lit. I was WRONG! The book is written in a playful format, and does not give any real advice on the act of writing itself. All the information that is given to you could have easily been deciphered from reading any of the multitude of chick lit books written out there. Plus there is a lot of information in there that is wrong or useless! For example, NEVER EVER EVER type your manuscript the way they advise you to in this book! If you seriously want to write chick lit, read as much as you can in the genre you like and read books about writing. My favorite, and the one that helped me write my first novel, was ""The Weekend Novelist"" by Robert J. Ray."
22131,1,item appeared to be used and repackaged or resold,Item was clearly purchased elsewhere and resold to me as new. I have never had this experience with amazon before and am disappointed. Packaging was dirty and previous price sticker still attached.
22141,1,Jerk Out CD single,"I was very disappointed when I listened to this single. Morris Day really pulled a fast one on this. This song has a different sound than is on the album, which this version is not even close."
22143,1,"Verbose, flat, dated.",A rather slow and verbose novel for an action piece . . . or just flat if viewed as some sort of mystery.
22249,1,Sci-Fi Movie with an actual Budget for Effects,"I see why this had mixed reviews and didn't make it to the American screens, the views of iceland were amazing however.The storyline plods along though and it makes you end up asking who cares about why Grendel is attacking these people and even less about the ""big secret"" at the end. Which is obvious if you don't fall asleep mid-way through.I was asking myself why the Polly actress, couldn't do some type of decent accent while in the movie.I am assuming she was a friend of the director and it was a free trip to a cool locale like Iceland! (love her in dawn of the dead, fyi!!)"
22292,1,What was all the fuss about????!!!!,"Halle Berry - I've seen her do better. Billy Bob - hasn't been the same since ""Sling Blade."" The premise was good but the movie's pace was waaay too slow. Another reviewer hit it on the head: being a racist doesn't go away in one night as it did with the Billy Bob character. Had high hopes for this movie, but was disappointed."
22298,1,halle is mediocre,"An hour and a half of this movie was all I could take. I never once bought into Halle Berry's performance. Her dialect came across as more phony and forced than natural. Her ""give me what I want scene"" was meant to be taken seriously but she was so stodgy I couldnt help but laugh. The other actors are decent. The movie would have been great if it had been about Billy Bob and Mos Defs characters."
22302,1,CRIKIE!! Are You KIDDING Me!?,"Beyonce of destiny's child!!!...YUCK!!... You can't understand a word she says!!!...She's a WORSE choice than Heather Graham was in sequel#2!!!! ~~~Spare Me, Baby!!~~~~~"
22340,1,Did not care for this book.,Letter format did not appeal to me to. Just did not care for this type of reading I prefer a different format.
22473,1,Celebrity is an ego trip,"NSync first really good album was ""No Strings Attached"" it was catchy with wonderful dance musice and ballads. Now comes the much anticipated ""Celebrity"" what a let down. Thought that this album would be a step up for NSync instead it was a step down. Seems like the boys don't sing enough, and are very ego oriented in the song ""Celebrity"". I love NSync but.......was very disappointed in this album. Hope the next is back on track and better then ""Celebrity"""
22549,1,disaster!,The description looked great - I have other jersey sheets which I like very much for for spring and fall weight. Turns out these are terminally cheap - so light weight they can't hold shape an feel cheesey as they keep coming off the mattress!Save your money!
22618,1,Too boomy.,"Well made, very sturdy shop radio has a bass boost that you cannot turn off. Everything but classical music booms out with so much bass that I cannot hear lyrics. Talk radio is hopeless. The results are loud but unsatisfactory - sure to disturb all your neighbors.Radio would be SO much better if it had a bass-boost off switch. It's a shame. Hey guys, how about adding tone control knobs?"
22681,1,don't buy it,"I got this vacuum because I read that it was light weight, not too noisy, and did a good job picking up dirt. I found it very difficult to push on my carpets. By the time I was done vacuuming my apartment, my back was really hurting. It feels like it has the brakes on. I tried to return it, but found that some of the pieces that had to be assembled when I purchased it, wouldn't come apart--thus I was not able to ship it back as it was shipped to me."
22772,1,Not a True Space Bag,"I gave this two stars simply because if you read enough, you will eventually realize these are not the bags you use the vacuum seal feature with. You need to roll the air out of these bags which is a pain and is not very effective. The sizes are smaller than what they profess to be. I suggest spending a few bucks more and getting the right bags.... Most people will be dissaspointed with these...."
22804,1,The Most Over-rated Trilogy of the Century,"After hearing all the hype about the books and the movie, I expected a real classic. However, these books were more like a double dose of NyQuil. I can't believe I wasted 12 hours listening to these. There are far too many characters and the books jump from sub-plot to sub-plot so often that they never established my interest in any one thread. There was no action or suspense. I didn't see the movie but can imagine that it may have been more interesting with the help of the visual effects. This story seems to be perfect for a movie....it needs some kind of help. As it is, it's far from exciting and a ""Classic"" it's definitely not."
22846,1,A Dreadful Bore,"I tried to get through this book. It took me about three weeks to get to page one hundred. The format was a mess. It was supposed to be the collected documents of the main character. This format just made reading the book a chore. After a while I found it difficult to keep the characters straight and just found myself dreading the idea of reading it. This could have been a good 400 page novel, but the author tried too hard to be clever and it ruined the impact. I wish I had the patience of the reviewers that finished The Wall because it is about a subject that I am very interested in; but it was just too boring for me to continue."
22874,1,Ehh..,I got this hoping it would be good. I only used it 3 times and it just stopped working and I don't know what to do.
22886,1,What happened?,"Back in the '80s when the heavy metal well was running dry it just seemed like the Crue was just your average glam band. They started out so strong with thier first two albums but then just seemed to fall into the category of ordinary. They finally broke out of that, but at the expense of breaking up the band (it just ain't the Crue without all four members). Then the Crue was back, and I just so happened to come across Generation Swine in the used CD bin. So I figured ""what the heck"" and bought it. To my dismay, it was actually original, innovative, and by far the Crue's best. You could tell that they put a lot of effort into the album. Now, much like their fellow metal brethren, Dokken, the Crue has slithered back into mediocrity, content to sell the masses the same old schlok that they produced in the '80s. How very disappointing."
22888,1,Motley Bland,"I bought the new Crue album last week and have to say that I am disappointed. I kept hearing how this would be their best effort since Dr. Feelgood. The problem, to me, is that there is nothing on this album that compares to the better songs on Dr. Feelgood. I don't know if it's because I've grown out of Motley Crue (I still love many of their previous songs)or because this album just isn't very good. In my opinion, the songs are even more juvenile than before and with a couple of exceptions aren't catchy. The music itself is catchy in some cases but the lyrics (not the vocals, this isn't a jab at Vince Neil) that accompany it are bad for the most part. I think many of their fans will like this just because they were so excited for new material to be released that it doesn't matter how good it really is. I'll give it a few more listens prior to tossing it aside in hopes that my opinion will change. Some bands just fade away (I hope this isn't one of them)."
23007,1,a minority view?,"TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD is one of the most overrated and hyped books of our time. It's an uneven paste-job of short stories and pieces by Harper Lee promoted by her liberal New York publishing friends.Some sections are absurd, such as Ch. 26, where third-grade students in a rural Alabama school in 1935 have a discussion about Adolph Hitler's treatment of Jews in Germany.Without the compelling 1962 film version, this novel might have been forgotten by now."
23037,1,Bizarre,"My husband tried this book first, and abandoned it after a couple of chapters - far too far out. I gave it a try and didn't even last that long. I did check further into the book, to see if the plot did bear some resemblance to the blurb on the back, but it really did not seem to. Maybe I had to read further to discover Sable Keech. All I read was about some ravenous and murderous creature called Vrell."
23085,1,What a dog...,"I must confess I have not listened to this album -- nor will I. One time through ""Soak up the Sun"" on the radio was all I needed to hear. What an insipid and annoying song. I can't believe a professional, 40-something musician would put her name on such godawful drek. It must have been written by the marketing department to get late spring airplay. A pyrrhic victory, I'm afraid."
23198,1,Disgusting SMUT!!,"Although this book is interesting in a historical context, the sex and inappropriate portions far outweigh the good parts of the book. I felt like I needed to go wash my eyes out after reading part of this book. Filthy!"
23203,1,Red Tent Bleeds with distortions,"I thought this was one of the worst books ever written. It has so much historical distortions that fit neatly into a radical feministic viewpoint of the biblical times. This book demonizes males of the biblical times. Furthermore, it takes the central character and tries to make us believe that a girl who is barely into puberty can have a deep romantic sexual experience and fall deeply in love with an adolescent male after just meeting him. The entire book is contrived. Furthermore, it is an insult and affront to the Old Testament."
23270,1,Great idea but....,"We received this as a gift. It is a really cute idea and cleverly designed, but not very practical for little kids. It's pretty flimsy considering it's suppose to stand up to the attention of a toddler- it's only made out of cardboard. There are so many little pieces that are easily lost. Like I said- wonderful idea but you would be better off just taking an old purse and filling it up with real items- old keys, old plastic sunglasses, etc."
23271,1,Not Durable,"Although this is a cute idea, I would not recommend this for small children (which doesn't make sense because that is who it is for, right?). There are too many things to try to keep track of and too many ways it can be destoyed by little hands. This is one of those toys to keep on a high shelf and to only be looked at with adult supervision."
23277,1,Regret for Sucrets,"These are so strong with throat numbing ingredients that all the other benefits are quickly overlooked. Hey, oral surgeons: forget anesthesia, just use these suckers. So strong that I had to question: ""Is this normal? Will I be able to talk later on coherently? Am I drooling?"". Metal box is a plus for hiding small trinkets."
23293,1,"Quirky, Offbeat,...Disappointing","I'd exhausted the recommendations of the local video specialist and was looking for that quirky original gem for a movie that would keep me entertained and be able to pass on to friends and family as a hot rental. As I was rather new to the Internet and this site I took to heart this movie when I read the prevoius reviews and figured this was the one.To say the least disappointing. The characters were quirky, offbeat and original but the movie plodded along at a rather pedestrian pace with little or no dynamics. To me it was a movie that was trying to be too odd, offbeat, etc. but tried too hard to be different to a fault. It certainly lost the attention of the spouse after the first 15 minutes, but I can't use her as a barometer to judge movies. Still it was like watching an un-popular guest at a party trying to overcompensate and instead coming off as un-popular AND desperate.I've definitely seen worse but I was hoping for more. A disappointing rent for $3.50."
23374,1,Disappointing,"I adore Julia Quinn's Bridgerton series, so I had high hopes for this one. However, this turned out to be a HUGE disappointment - so much so that I ended up skipping after 100 pages to the end because I just couldn't take it anymore. The heroine, Ellie, is extremely annoying, whose personality apparently dictated that she act like a waspish, humorless shrew towards the hero, who was nothing but kind and charming to her. Also, there were huge chunks of the book where NOTHING was happening except for the boring and increasingly annoying back-and-forth dialogue between Ellie and Charles, which did nothing to advance the story. It got to be so annoying that I had to stop. You could tell Ms. Quinn was trying very hard to be witty in these passages, but it fell spectacularly flat. Would not recommend."
23450,1,worst book ever,"I bought two Harper books. The parched sea and this one, after reading the parched sea i expected alot from Red Magic. I couldn't get passed page 76, i read Exile (by R.A Salvatore), the puppet king (Douglas Niles) and Rainbow Six (Tom Clancy) and i couldn't get far in this book. If you see a copy, don't get tempted by the cover art, run!"
23513,1,Longwinded,When you read a book and keep reading it and you don't find anything about the main story after several pages the book is dull and boring. This book could be written with at least 100 pages less.
23525,1,Most pathetic trimmer i ever purchased....,"I purchased this to gift it to one of my cousin in India and after checking the reviews I was very confident that this will be a great gift. Not exaggerating, it started but it just doesnt solve the purpose. I have been using Panasonic ES224s from last 3 yrs and its blade is still much better than this piece of junk. I am not sure if my piece is faulty or what but it just dont work....it was just so embarrassing to gift something which just dont work.."
23544,1,Unbearable,"I know everyone in the universe loves this movie but I found it absolutely unbearable. The dialogue was so painfully fake and unfunny, it seems like it was lifted out of a bad TV sitcom. Every single line from every single character was some witty obnoxious quip. The whole script reeks of a clueless, outdated older person trying to write like what they think hip young kids must sound like. Juno means well and the actors did their job, but it baffles me how people can sit through this movie without puking at 95% of the lines."
23660,1,man bad;woman good,"as short as this book is i would have liked it better if it was a short story..maybe if you are an irish woman living in ireland it will open your eyes to domestic violence..i'm wrong;if you are a woman anywhere this is a book for you..GET HELP! the husband is a nasty dude..i couldn;t relate to this tale..the females in my bookclub,on the other hand felt it should be read by all women..children of abusive dads should also give it a read..i liked doyle's other books and give him high marks for fictionalizing a subject that is below the social radar..great book for reading about domestic abuse.bad book for the why and what to do..depresssing and repetitive..should have been a sunday mag feature.."
23700,1,BORING!,"I have read many of Martini's books and really like the ""can't put it down"" style along with them usually being quick reads. I never really got into this book, even though I finished it (and I don't know why I bothered). It was boring!"
23757,1,Did anyone proof this before publication?,"I bought this book through an apparently misguided recommendation without bothering to read the reviews. Everything goes fine until you run across project 1, where you then begin wondering if maybe your copy was bound out of order or some other crazy publication mishap. They have you modifying forms that they haven't had you create yet, and assume that you have the database they use in the code already defined and populated without any prior mention. Hopefully I can sucker someone on Ebay to buy this from me..."
23769,1,Sticky pan and hot handles - Not recommended,"I don't want to buy a non-stick pan because based on the reviews I have read, I found even for $150+ non-stick pans, the non-stick coating would wear off within a couple of years and you end up eating them. And they require some careful everyday maintenance which my girlfriend never cares.The specifications on Amazon.com describe this pan is stick-resistant and has stay-cool handles, which were two main reasons why I bought it.However, I found neither of them. The pan is more sticky than a regular iron pan. The handles are very hot after cooking.I wouldn't recommend this to anyone even though it's really cheap."

23858,1,"Damn, it should have been finished a while ago...","Disappointed. Cheated. Angry. Thats how I felt when I finally heard Jay-Z and R. Kelly's second ""Best of Both Worlds"" CD. Jay's rhymes was the worst I've heard him do in a LONG time, R. Kelly basically outsung the whole CD. It was sad, on top of that, it was just wayyy to commercial. It seemed like they put zero to little effort into it, and Jay even admitted that. I went to the Madison Square concert the night R. Kelly walked off stage, and it was one of the best concerts I've been to ever. I felt like I witnessed history, only because it showed how one performer (R. Kelly) really proved that he was at the bottom of his game, while the other (Jay-Z) pulled out his aces and performed a hit show, thanks to Mary J, Ja, and Busta! The CD is horrible though, get the Black Album instead, or wait and get Nas' ""Streets Disciple""."

23941,1,"Beware this ""bootleg"" DVD","ROYAL WEDDING isn't on DVD yet. That's because the OWNER of the film, Warner Bros. hasn't released it yet.But several other companies have, under the ""guise"" of public domain. The original copyright on the film was not renewed properly with the Library of Congress, so the film is perceived to be public domain, although the music is very much copyrighted and every distributor of this movie is participating in copyright infringement by selling these ""bootlegs"".The companies make the money, because they're selling OTHER people's property.The people who ultimately suffer are YOU, THE CONSUMER, unknowingly buying products of inferior (worse than professional VHS) quality, thinking you're getting the real thing, because it's a DVD.Save your money. Wait until Warner Bros. gives us the real thingthing...And by the way, the movie gets 4 stars, it's the cheapo bootleg DVD that gets 1 star!"

24049,1,"Dear Boss, Don't buy this if you are you want to kno who I am. Ha Ha.","I've never read Patricia Cornwell but having recently attended an exhibition at the Tate Britain in London which included works from the alleged Ripper and artist Walter Sickert and being a sometime Londoner have always been interested in Jack the Ripper, I thought I would try her account. Like most the reviewers here, her work is shoddy, threadbare, based on circumstantial evidence, poorly written, organised and repetitive just like the work of the Metropolitan and City Police she criticises. I'm still not convinced Sickert wasn't Jack the Ripper but she doesn't convince me he is either. And no case can ever hang on doubt. Back to the drawing room."
24060,1,Tastes awful & my skin is still dry...!,"I have been eating this body butter on my toast every morning for the past two months in hopes that it would help improve my dry skin. It tastes terrible - a little bit like coconut & mango, but very bitter and not sweet at all - but I wouldn't mind the taste so much if I saw some results. Maybe I'm not putting enough on my toast. How much do you use?"
24101,1,a short review for an unbearable book,"the novel started out ok....it was a good idea and the characters were interesting. after several chapters it became tedious, then about halfway thru it was torture. style for the sake of style is acceptable, but SOMETHING has to happen to keep the book interesting. you have to have some kind of conflict. the drama in this book is as intense as watching a river push rocks downstream. i thought by the time strange went to war the book would finally start moving but....ah well it doesn't matter what happened.the book was dull, dull, dull; all style and no weight. a complete waste of time that goes nowhere and leaves you with nothing."
24124,1,beware of extreme bias- this book is not for everyone,"I know this is a ""Christian"" book but what it has to say about masturbation and homosexuality is inconsistent with healthy human natural desire. If you want a book that conforms to a very narrow view then this one is perfect. If you are looking for equality between the sexes or up to date information about human sexuality then you won't find it in this book. Also the authors stole a lot from Masters and Johnson and do not give them credit. I thought stealing was a sin."
24162,1,average,Very average book! Frei doesn't go down as one of my favorite sports writers. Loves to sensationlize rather then just tell a great story.
24183,1,Not much of an insight,"For an enthusiast who read ""Peopleware .."" and ""Why does software cost so much "" this book is disappointing. It discusses a few relevant points, but never enough content and relevance to be a serious book. Demarco could have limited the subject matter into one cute little chapter of a collection to be published as a book. More importantly the idea of ""Slack"" as it is discussed by the book is not much of a fresh insight. It is coined around the general and obvious concept of a better environment, required for nourishing creativity and quality of 'mind work', which is relaxing and pleasing and not tiring and pressurising."
24196,1,Ummm...weak,i would never get this again...its way too oozy when u open it. but it does the job.the flavors were fun! quite potent.
24337,1,Ehh,"These guys are alright. They'd be better if the lead singer didn't sound like he was getting kicked in the balls everytime he hits a note, but w/e.

24355,1,"I really wanted to love this, but . . .","it is truly a cheap, cheap quality humidifier. When it was working (for about a day), it did produce ""mist""--but nothing that created any real moisture in the air. And then it started leaking . . . and leaking and leaking . . . and it's useless now. It's a cheap piece of plastic that looks very cute but does not function at all as a true humidifier, so beware."
24361,1,"One worked for 6 weeks, another one for 2.","I bought this product after seeing its high rating in Consumer Reports. It worked fine for while, though the output was only half of what is advertised: 1 gallon in 24 hours, instead of 2. I even bought a second one, for the office. This second one stopped working in 2 weeks: more precisely, the fan stopped. The first one stopped working now, after less than 6 weeks."
24370,1,Broke in 2 weeks,"It just stopped working after 2 weeks, i should've listened to people who said that on reviews... we kept the head part of the penguin caz kids loved it, the plastic penguin head pice was $50, i guess. pretty expensive!"
24381,1,Makes a mess!,"Even though super cute this is an extremely poorly made product.""Steam"" blew up in the air and then fell on the floor making a huge mess. Carpet was soaked. Tried moving the humidifier higher up on a dresser but water just settled in same spot right in front of it.I've had other humidifiers before and I could place them on the floor and never had to worry about huge wet spots on the carpet from where the steam fell.I'd suggest another brand."
24396,1,Just Stopped,"I bought this humidifier for my daughter because she desperately wanted a Moo Cow toy and this was so functional and cute. She loved it. I had a basic cone style one from Crane that has lasted for ages so I thought this would be a good buy. Unfortunately it just stopped working over a month ago. No warning sign, nothing we can find wrong with it... just stopped! I bought a Penguin one for my infant's room and a similar issue has occurred so I am quite disappointed with this brand now. Very short shelf life for the fun kids ones it seems."
24413,1,Not really 2.3 Gallon Capacity Tank,"As shown in the product page, the product is not 2.3 Gallon capacity tank. It is 0.9 Gallon capacity tank with 2.3 Gallon output. Just got the item should see its operation. Dissappointed with the purchase, can get different brand product in less rate with good capacity and output with automation features."
24452,1,Dont buy,This is a very difficult thing to put together I have literally put together real engines easeyer than this the enigine does not go together like a real one nothing fits right and does not make any sense over all it's a pice of crap save your money
24479,1,has its moments,"Too violent, too hokey, too predictable, too shallow.The violence is the part of that that's a surprise: The characters suffer crippling injuries, near deaths, and ruinous destructions of property time after time after time. On the plus side, the director knows how to make explosions big."
24512,1,These wire don't come in 100 ft spool,"I'll second all these previous reviews about these wires don't come in 100 ft per spool. I ordered two 100 ft spools, one spool comes with only 80 ft, and the second one comes in two pieces:60 ft and 30 ft. I've concluded the manufactuer don't have the intention to fix the problem. If you can live with the quality control of the footage, these wires appear in good quality and the price is reasonable."
24514,1,Buy another book - not this one,"Being new to breakmaking, I was excited to purchase this book so that I could begin making bread from my food storage. It doesn't appear that any of the recipes were tested because if you try and make the 100% Honey Wheat Bread - trust me, it doesn't work. I even enlisted an expert baker and she said there is no way this recipe would work as written. She even tried to rework this recipe with disappointing results. Makes me wonder if any of the recipes are worth even trying. Nothing worse than hoping for a wonderful outcome only to throw it in the trash. Which by the way is where this book is going to go. My advise is to ask a friend what cookbook they use and then buy that book. NOT this one. My guess is the author just wanted another cookbook under her belt and didn't care if any of the recipes worked."
24515,1,Roberts Rules in Plain English,"The book is a decent primer and is certainly more readable than Robert's original book. Of course the original and all of its editions remain an example of very incomprehensible and convoluted language even for its era. However, I have to handle large meetings of very strong-willed, intelligent people, so I found the ""Plain English"" book not very useful. I need to know the details and complexities of handling important meetings so that I make the right decisions. I will stick with the more sophisticated texts."

24589,1,Weak Sauce,"Sadly this is Hollywood these days, bad movies galore. I would like the two hours of my life back and the fuel I wasted driving to the library to get rent this afterbirth of a movie.

This movie just sucks compared to the rest of Star Trek.Now to see how bad Spielberg ruins ""Ghost in the Shell"", not looking forward to that day."
24592,1,"The title is ""Star Trek"" so it MUST be wonderful!","If you like video games and CGI's this movie is a 10. However if you are greedy enough to want more from script and direction then altered personalities, biker style Romulans with dialogue to match, and key players who look and sound like your local high school troupe, you may find this wanting."

24676,1,Couldn't finish it despite being a true Roberts fan.,Didn't like the man ordering around the woman and not taking no for an answer. Mental abuse is not my thing. Was upset that this was an old book of hers but it wasn't stated as such.

24884,1,The easiest way to sell books is by making outrageous claims,"McKenna is one of the most misinformed writers I have ever read. He has no grasp on the evolutionary process. He makes assumptions on important subjects with little or no scientific evidence. I'm not complaining that he tries to qualify the use of hallucinogens, I'm all for it if that is what you want to do, I only wish that he would not mislead the reader by simplify what are very complex ideas. McKenna has built is argument on sand as anyone who looks into the subject will find."
24888,1,BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!,"DO NOT BE FOOLED WITH THE TITLE OR DESCRIPTION OF THIS DVD. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE F-16!!!!! IN FACT, THERE IS ONLY ABOUT 15 SECONDS OF FOOTAGE AND TALK OF THE F-16. WORST DVD I'VE EVER BOUGHT!!!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!"
24924,1,Where Serpents Lie,I didn't even finish reading it. The language was a turn off for me! I don't understand why authors think bad language makes a book good to read.
24993,1,Harry Potter is a kid story,"Harry Potter is totally for kids. Yes, the plot is encouragingly positive, but overly simplified and cliched. It lacks an in-depth characters developement. One can't resist but to compare ""Harry Potter"" to ""The Lord of the Rings"". ""Rings"" has an intricately interwoven plot; it's complex but not confusing. ""Rings"" has a complete history in its background and that's what's missing in ""Harry Potter"". ""Harry Potter"" is a great starter of fantasy books, but it's strictly for kids."
25023,1,Needlessly wordy and long winded,"While O'Brien seems to really know his stuff, and the book covers a vast array of material, it's just too darn wordy. His sentence structure, and word usage are awkward. Many of the terms he uses are NEEDLESSLY large and difficult to understand. He uses terms like 'tactical planning', 'proactive and interactive', and the like with out even explaining what he means. Many of his sentences have fillers and are full of redundancies.The simple fact is that text books that are well written make learning the material easier. I implore the author to fix this book.This is a poorly written book that has a great deal of valuable knowledge."
25034,1,What Happened?,"I loved the book, it had so many twists and turns. Then I watched the movie and it didn't follow the book at ALL. They didn't even put some of the main characters in the movie. Things just didn't line up. If I never read the book I might have liked the movie, but from the stand point of someone who thinks that a movie should follow the book as close as possible, this movie was a huge disappointment."
25037,1,2.5 Years in and the problems start,"I have enjoyed this tv very much for the past couple years. The picture was very good, it interfaced with all my devices very quickly and easily. The sound wasn't the greatest, but acceptable for a set of tv speakers. The big problem is that the ir sensor on the front started becoming 'blind' last week. Meaning that the remote has to be within 12 inches of the tv in order for it to work."
25056,1,dont buy these here!,"i ordered these shoes in the size that i wear in all my shoes and have had this size for ages and they were so tight they were no where near the size i needed. and not only do they not reimburse shipping cost, they do not exchange items bought off of amazon, so i would have had to send them back at my own cost, while losing the $9 shipping i already paid, and then buy them again and pay the shipping cost again! needless to say if you want these shoes buy them from their website, not amazon."

25078,1,looks good but contains so many ommissions and mistakes,"This book looks good but there are an incredible amount of typos as well as words missing - such as in Pride and Prejudice the editor mustn't have know what shire they were in, because it is written as ___________ shire, repeatedly throughout the book. This isn't the only time this __________ is used - obviously the editor should have gone back to add the words!! Unbelievable. There are also scenes missing from Pride and Prejudice - such as the scene where Mr. Darcy dives into the water!! What the ????? Very, very disappointing."
25137,1,don't waste money,looks nice. decent quality build. BUT!!! it only allowed me to pick up about 2 stations more than NO attena at all. They shouldn't even manufacture this thing! I wound taking this cheap wire that came with a boombox from years ago and plugging that into my Denon Receiver and spreading it out to get reception. that silly wire picks up a ton of stations and this thing that cost something picked up next to nothing! VERY DISAPOINTING!!!!!I will say that I was very pleased with the purchase through Amazon and the company that shipped it out. As always I've been pleased with how quickly I recieved the product!
25206,1,Didn't grab me,"I started this book ready to be immersed and fascinated. What was it that kept that from happening? No character that really held my interest. Shifting scenes that were hard to hold together. Why didn't I get to know Toussaint, of all people, better through this book? It is indeed an epic, and it does collect evidence for the texture of life of the times. It horrifies, it blasts. But for me, this novel didn't sing"

It is one of the few albums that I own that I can grab, throw in the car, and know I will want to listen to it. It has everything I want, relentless double bass, cool guitar riffs, good flow, vocal style that works with the music and not against it. On a side note I would recommend this album to anybody who is developing a need for more extreme types of music. Although I prefer the newer albums this is the album that got me interested in Cannibal Corpse."
25231,1,it doesn't get any sicker than this,"Seriously, what deranged lunatic would appreciate this music. Just listening to the sound bites is enough to make my skin crawl. I felt like I needed to take a shower afterwards.This is just pure demonic works. Music? No. Force fed broken glass? Sick.I wish I could give this album and every single one a negative 5. Actually I wish I could remove every single album that every person owns and have a huge bonfire in celebration of the destruction of that crap.Would you want your son or daughter listening to that?Is that becoming of a person?If you could care less what your children listen to, that's the reason for the endless cycle of mayhem and violence we see today. Parents could care less, so children end up not caring, their children, and on and on and on. So sad.Parents, pay attention to what your kids listen to!!!If you find they listen to this stuff (crap), get them to psychological counseling now!! PRAY!!!This is the crap that breeds serial killers!!!"
25263,1,Ilan Pappe rewrites History to fit his own agenda,"Ilan Pappe, has taken the history of israel and changed it to fit his revisionist dialogue and prpomte an anti Israel agenda. He uses information that cannot be documented, has decided on a one state solution and essentially calls for the elimination of the state of Israel, while he lives on a goverment salary, and is protected by the very soliders that he demonizes. He should be filed un ""fiction"" in the libraries."
25271,1,ok at best,"George Michael is a very Talented singer,songwriter,arranger&Producer but on this album He is settling for run of the Mill Material.there a couple decent tracks here but alot of the Material seems&feel dated&lacking any substance to measure up to what he use to do."
25289,1,nope,"this was my first book by john saul and it was very dissapointing. i didnt care much for the characters and found the story quite stupid.now, i didnt gave up on this author and im reading these days ""suffer the children"" ... a different story on this one. very good. when i finish it i will gladly make my review... ... but the god project; silly."
25331,1,A little Dissapointed in Picture Quality,"I bought 300 on blue about a week after it came out. When i played it on my 42 inch samsung, from my ps3 it looked like absolute grainey garbage. I went to stores like circuit city and best buy and they said the picture looked grainey because of the cgi it was filmed in. It serious looks so bad where i just want to watch it on a normal tv, so i don't feel like im watching this movie during Hurricane Katrina."
25333,1,Tasha's Rifles for Waite Review,"My mom made me read Rifles for Waite. I don't know why because I thought it was very boring. I usually like books like this but this was not one I enjoyed. I don't reconmend it to any 12-13 year old girl who has a weak stomach. It was very grafic. Although it was very informative, this book was not interesting."
25344,1,"I agree, all you fans are in denial","Okay, there are a few good tracks on this album? What I can't hear them. I must be stupid. What is this, some sort of curse where people beleive this crap and whispery sh** is ""music""? Wow. And I agree with that one person who said those fans are in denial. I AGREE, YOU ARE ALL IN DENIAL!"
25352,1,Pathetically laughable,"I used to be a massive fan, but it seems Janet's (once sparingly) sensual tracks over time have slowly escalated to trashy & lame. Every track on this album has the same theme. ""I want to undress you and... (Insert slutty chorus here)"". Time to deflate your ego Janet. Sex does not make a woman powerful.We heard her soft breathing and moaning on the last few albums. Surprise surprise! Here it is again.... & again & again & again. Very classyWelcome to rock bottom Janet."
25358,1,Pretty Disappointed,"Have no doubt, I have loved JJ since her 'Control' album, but I have to be honest when I talk about 'Damita Jo.' I was EXTREMELY disappointed with the entire album. Yes, it has a good beat and yes it's fun to listen to however, she has seemingly become stagnant in regards to her message and what she would like to convey to her fans. If she is all about sex then good for her, but in my opinion there are other things out there that are more important and a woman with her power position could do something positive with her work. When I compare 'Damita Jo' to 'Rhythm Nation' I have to say I respected her more for her songs/lyrics on 'Rhythm Nation' than I do for her current work.I still think she is a fabulous entertainer, but this one is a disappointment."
25375,1,"Probably the most confusing ""textbook"" ever","I bought this book for my sociology in family studies class and it is perhaps the most useless textbook I have ever read. The contents are jumbled together and resemble different clippings from different articles (I realize this is an anthology, but I would atleast like it to be well structured and meaningful). I didn't learn anything significant from this book and I dread opening it. Save your money and don't buy the book. And if you are a professor, please don't choose this book for your students. I'm an undergrad student at a top 30 University, and lot of my peers agree that this book is confusing and not helpful to learning."
25420,1,Maybe for the Fourth Grade,"I had read about Rubi in regard to Barbara Hutton. I thought a light read about a playboy and maybe a spy would be a nice change of pace for me. The authors really should be ashamed. There are grammatical errors that should have been spotted. Page 11 'between he and I.' When I read that sentence I threw the book away. Shoddy, sophomoric and it is certainly not worth the price or really any price. I do think it would be a good example of bad writing, bad prose and perhaps how did such a execrable book become published."
25433,1,Awfully bad,As many books the beginning of this one is excellent. But as you go over and over it gets boring and boring. The book has four stories that at the end will meet and all of them are stark boring. And at the end... just skip it. Better'd be if you skip this book.
25477,1,Slow,"I can't say a whole lot about this one - it was mildly entertaining, slow, and just not my cup of tea. I know many consider this to be a great book, but honestly it just wasn't my cup of tea. The pace was slow, the characters shallow (leading me to not really care about them, or what was happening). I think given the time when this was written, this would've been a great book, but I've been spoiled by some of the great fantasy novels of the last decade or two."
25507,1,Very weak!,"These guys were some of the first to ever combine melody in Swedish death metal, and they did put out two quality albums before this disaster. Entombed and other bands went death n' roll, much to my dismay, and Desultory followed, sacrificing their original and crushing sound. This sounds most like recent Corrosion of Conformity albums, but much, much stupider. The last two tracks are more in their old style. You can tell that from the shaved heads (are these the same guys who made ""Bitterness?"" Nah...), the new ""logo,"" and idiotic song titles that this is not like their old stuff. Hey! Stop taking uppers and get depressed again!"
25549,1,B+W UV filter,I would have wanted to know if Amazon.com is an authorized B+W dealer. I would have wanted to know if Amazon.com sells grey market merchandise. I would have wanted to know if The filter I purchased is grey market. The filter I received from Amazon is a very different color than my other B+W UV filters. I don't purchase filters from Amazon.com any more. I am looking very carefully into who sells grey market and who doesn't. Jean
25596,1,Does Topor's mother read his writing?,"This could be a good story but I am so disgusted by the crude and obscene language that I am having a difficult time forcing myself even to skip through it fast enough to learn the ending. Are there any other readers out there who feel this way or are we just expected to accept this trash talk as the norm? I got this book because it has been compared to John Grisham's ""Testament"". Reading Torpor certainly reaffirmed my admiration for Grisham. Grisham's characters can express the full range of emotions without foul language. Bye, now, it's back to Grisham with a little Jane Austen on the side for me!"
25701,1,"Disappointed, but got happy","I bought this unit somewhere else. It lasted through 6 uses, with a burning smell. The gears stripped, and I threw it away. I just purchased the Chefs Choice 610 from Amazon, and Im very pleased. It did a great job, didn't smell and it was easy to clean up. It's a very nice unit for the price."
25820,1,"Clean mids and highs, but no bass","If you like the sound of good quality bookshelf speakers - with the woofers removed - you'll love the ER6i's. There's a whole ritual involved in getting them inserted correctly (the casual observer might think you're having a seizure) and even the slightest difference in the way they're inserted causes significant changes in the sound, which goes from thin to thinner. Etymotic claims audiophile pleasing accuracy, but I don't consider it accurate when you completely chop off the whole lower end of the audio spectrum.The wires russling against your clothing cause an distractingly loud noise in your ears as well.I bought the Ultimate Ears SuperFi 5 earphones a few weeks after giving up on the Etymotics and, even though the price of the UE's is somewhat higher, the quality and extended range of their sound (full, deep, balanced bass, warm mids and clean highs) made it well worth it to me."
25828,1,Just stick a turd in your ear it sounds better.,"worst headphones i have ever bought my $10 Skull Candy buds sounded better. Sure it has clarity but who cares if it has absolutely no bass and yes i stuck them all the way in my ear and tried all of the different tips. luckily amazon is great about returns and i got a refund minus the shipping. unless you listen to pre-1940s music when bass was non existent in recordings then have at it buy these, but if you like bass drops then flee this page!!! So far i have had consistent success with Sony the best ear buds i have used are mdr-ex71 (the $40 ones not the $12) they have an amazing rang and don't max out easy plus at low volume are crystal clear. I work a software company and listen to music most of the day (i love music and have over 120gb of it) so that's my resume for anyone who may doubt that i know about good sound quality. I hope this helps :)"
25832,1,Biased,I do not think this gives a unbiased opinion of the true beliefs of the Mormons. It would seem to be one sided.
25843,1,cooshie booster seat,"Our toddler never liked this product and hardly ever sat in it. It looked like a good solution to our home dining problem, but it didn't help us."
25917,1,Garbage...and not the band!,"Why...why..why? I am a big fan of music, and artist trying out new things, but to put it very simple this album is horrible. I agree with others...her 1st solo album was suprisingly good. Gwen hurry up and finish the No Doubt album, so I can forget you ever released this fisher price album. If this is talent, then i'm sorry music fans...not only should Nas album be called ""hip hop is dead"" but Gwen shoulda called this album ""Music is Dead"" She is following the same path as her husband...anyone ever hear his solo...nope...that what I thought..."
26008,1,a good starter net for a pitcher,"this net is NOT for kids with a 60-75mph fast ball pitcher, it however would be best suited for ages 5yrs. to maybe 11yrs. not for teen age tho. wish they would age rate."
26096,1,Don't like them for bass or acoustic guitar,"I bought this as a pick for electric bass but found it was still not hard enough and it lowered my playing volume compared to a standard pick. I tried it on acoustic guitar and again the volume is a lot lower plus the highs were quieter, too. I just did not like these and don't see me using them."
26125,1,It worked great for ONE DAY,It worked great for one day. Now it is not working. The battery is new. The water is on. It just doesn't work.
26150,1,Don't waste your money on this guide,"Just returned from a trip to Rome with two kids and had this book in hand. Most of the ideas listed are things that most people would come up with on their own and some of the things listed were just wrong...for example, we showed up at the Victor Emmanuel monument early to see the big iron gate descend (as noted in the book) and not only was the opening time wrong but it turns out that all they do is open a door in the gate. They also list (in a note) a museum dedicated to nativity sets...turns out it's only open in the evenings, a fact that the authors fail to mention."
26320,1,my opinion,I dislike the book because it didn't really make sence to me.It was really boring and I was not interested.So don't pick up the book.
26340,1,Terrible editing by Kindle,"The book is good and you should buy the paperback edition. DO NOT BUY THE KINDLE VERSION. This is the most poorly edited published book I have ever read. I am going to ask for a refund from Kindle, which I have never done before. There are typos on every other page. Apparently Amazon just ran the paperback version through the optical character reader without actually editing the book by a human being. I expect more from Amazon."
26345,1,Would be nice if I'd gotten an issue,It's been approx 6 months and I haven't gotten a single issue. First time not happy on Amazon. Hopefully they will fix the problem so other people won't go through this.
26420,1,If only 0 stars were available...,"Quite simply, once of the worst Hollywood films produced- implausible, historically inaccurate, attrocious acting, and to top it off, quite boring.Sets were ok though I guess..."
26450,1,A collosal failure of a flick,"Pearl Harbor...December 7th...a date which will live in infamy. This film took on a subject near and dear to the hearts of Americans everywhere, and failed to do it justice. Fantastic explosions and effects and a quality score from Hans Zimmer could not resurrect this movie from the stench of mediocrity.A tacked on love story was butchered further by the B-level acting ""talent"" of Ben Affleck, but one gets the sense that, even perfectly done, it would not have worked against the backdrop of the terrible attack. It would be like the soldiers on Normandy Beach stopping for a romantic tryst halfway up a sand dune.The movie also played out about an hour too long. The last hour (all AFTER the attack on us) just pushed my opinion of the movie lower and lower.All that said, I did mention that the movie had solid effects and a wonderful score. But poor acting and a bad script were just too much to overcome. Steer clear of this one!"
26461,1,DIAPER DILEMMA,"Buying diapers again after 27 years, as a grandmother, I was disappointed. I expected a soft cloth. These are not what I was expecting. I recall the large single ply diapers that were excellent for everythin and also the prefilded ones that were as soft as a cloud. These are rather flimsy but I guess for a lap pad they will work."
26488,1,versatile but cheaply constructed,"This is the fifth Foreman Grill that I have owned. It is the most versatile but it is much more cheaply constructed than any of the earlier versions. The enclosed cook book, paticularly in light of the versatility is a joke with only 7 recipies while the previous grills came with very nice and complete recipe books. And there is NO information on how to best utilize the various plates. What a shame to develop and sell five different plates - a great idea - but then leave it to the imagination of the consumer to how to use each of these plates - a very bad idea.I will certainly not recommend this product to others. I look forward to Foreman offering alternative plates to the previous Next Generation Grill which is a much better product. But maybe they have just decided to milk the brand and we will not see any improvements or accessories for the real superb Next Generation"
26492,1,Drove me crazy,"This drying rack drove us crazy. We placed the rack on a shelf above the sink. When the holder was full, it would constantly fall over and the bottles would end up in the sink. I say buy another brand"
26510,1,02 26 2009,don't be suckered by the Bruce webber picture on the coverits better than the filmthe film is elementary at best - looks like it was filmed for a high school class.If you get off on dialog then buy itotherwise this is a stinkerstay away and save your money
26618,1,The grace and beauty of the original book has been lost...,"Most of the book has been changed. And not for the better. It has taken on a totally different perspective and lacks in most areas. Listening to this for the first time made me laugh in disgust. They went as far as changing the ending. While reading the book, I cried as I finished. By the time I finished the tape, I tossed it in the trash where it belonged."
26656,1,Greek Music Not Flamenco,The CD and other armik CDs all sound like Greek music. I have a Greek CD I purchased in Greece. I can find some melodies sound exactly the same. It also sounds like Iranian music.This music is not flamenco flame or gypsy or new flamenco. I recommend Spanish artists.
26665,1,Hacking Windows XP,An advertisement for a myriad of shareware and freeware programs. Everything in the book can be found at serveral web sites for free so why spend 20 dollars like I did.
26690,1,Awful,"This product is fragile and completely ineffective. I bought two and both fell apart within months after no more stress than simply moving them around. Not only were they fragile but they barely work at all. There was little difference in the quality of the signal received with the antenna than without it. Simple, cheaper, rabbit ears worked much better. This product is a COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY! I have rarely been this dissatisfied with a purchase. I wish I could give it ZERO stars."
26794,1,TERRIBLE!! DO NOT waste your money on this sludge,"Boring, pointless, poorly done. Terrible acting, nothing explained at the end, or anywhere else for that matter of any consequence.HORRIBLE. 1 star cause I have to, ohterwise -8000"
26796,1,Don't waste your time!!!,"My husband and I rented this movie for $, and I wanted a refund!! It started ok, but went nowhere fast! I was very disappointed. Little or no action, and all of a sudden the credits start to roll!!"
26810,1,Beware!!!,"The are a lot of warnings about this product making both cats & dogs sick or worse yet dying, check the internet for reviews & warnings. I bought this product but threw away. I read the warnings after purchasing."
26833,1,"My Braun 8585 Shaver, is Now a Torture Device","I have owned a Braun 8585 series electric shaver since 2007. It is the BEST shaver I have ever owned. I have been using replacement Blades from Braun and from Amazon every year since I purchased this shaver.I purchased replacement blades this year, as I always do, once a year. I was sent 5 series blades. At first I thought it was a mistake, but they fit my shaver.I have now been using these blades for less than 4 months and they are DULL, DULL, DULL. They do NOT shave like blades I've received in the past and it is becoming a TORTURE DEVICE.I now have to spend 20+ minutes every morning shaving to get the desired results and my skin is left red and tender every day. The blades pull my beard and it is painful.I don't know if the quality of the blades has been compromised, but I have to tell you, I have to replace these blades in less than 6 months of use and THAT is NOT right.I would be hesitant to order these blades. They do not last long."
26900,1,Don't Confuse with Son House's great Original Delta Blues album,"The Original Delta Blues, which is far superior, is often confused for this album. This one does a poor job of showing what a special artist House was."
26928,1,"SI INSISTEN EN LEER A MR. SANCHEZ, LEAN ESTE.","Yo no lo compraría, pero si ha usted le han hablado tanto de este Sr., de su ""grito desesperado"" y su otro ""libros"" (así, entre comillas). Bueno, pues sólo invierta en éste (y en el volúmen dos si se aferra). Es una ""recopilación"" de ""sus"" ideas de ""sus libros""."
26961,1,Gag me.,"This book was awful. Condescending and patronizing, even the cover left me cold. It implies pregnancy is supposed to be a time of waiting around in a rocking chair. Throw this book out."
27106,1,Unrestricted,"I have two. The one running 100% free air flow without an adjustable valve is going strong and quite after 18 months. The other, connected to a common restrictor valve for a smaller tank, bit the dust in 3 months. The cheap internals can't handle the pressure.Only purchase IF you run it wide-open and do not restrict the flow output."
27166,1,A major Disapointment,"I entered into this book expecting the timeless classic everyone talks about. But it's not, the writing is so-so the story is a bore, the characters are dated and the twists are so overly perfect that it couldn't be real life. The connections Salinger makes throughout the story are so obvious and forced that it made me want to laugh, I could write better then this. A complete waste of an hour!"
27189,1,Get married only if you know he/she is the one,I really did not like this book it just simply talks about being married and it just fails there is no way to work it out just divorce and say Yeah I got divorced so I lied to the Preacher. The author got married at 27 and divorced at 28 and now thinks everybody who is in there 20's is going to make that same mistake. When are people going to learn getting married is not a game it is a serious commitment in life probably the most important thing you'll ever do. In today's times people who have no buisness being together are getting married and get out in 12 months because they are bored and simply do not understand what marriage is all about that is the number one problem in this country today.
27220,1,piece of crap,this is a pointless book and i hope you burn it muahahaha! i read it at my pal's home and it has no point. You are paranoid. i hope u kie.
27235,1,useless,I purchased the SanDisk Ultra II Secure Digital Card to use in my Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ8 camera because it was supposed to be much better than a regular SD card. Much faster transfer speed than standard card.It is incompatible with this camera. I also couldn't get either my home pc or laptop to format the card. SanDisk techinical support basically said that they were sorry. Too bad! Nothing we can do about it.Avoid the SanDisk 2GB Ultra II Secure Digital Card if you have a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ8 camera.
27246,1,sizing not accurate,"per description: 3 inch x 10 inch decal - it's more like 2.5 inch x 7 inch decal, so kinda disappointed to spend $9 on this decal. It is a very pretty decal, just wish the size was as advertised"
27255,1,Relying on Past Glories,"Whilst this CD is by Paul McCartney (and friends) it seems that he has fallen into the trap of relying heavily on Beatle songs. Surely Paul can come up with something original after all this time. I also feel that his voice is not up to previous offerings but I appreciate that singing 'live' can place stress on the voice and that fans may want him to include such songs 'live'.Overall a pleasant CD, especially if you attended one of the shows, but not worth rushing out to buy, especially if you have the original tracks. One for Beatle fans only, in my opinion."
27274,1,"Poor, Biased account of History","This book serves as an unreliable source, and was obviously written by a journalist, not a historian. Reading this book, one can tell it was ""slapped"" together in order to generate a profit. Surely, most of the references and notes in the book were not fully reviewed in archival format. This book glorifies Hitler's rise to power as a ""fly by night"" phenomenon, and insists that German nature is to blame for the rise of the NSDAP (Nazis). It forces upon you, the idea that all Germans are bad natured. For a better account, and more comprehensive account of this period, I reccomend ""Nazi Germany,"" by Klaus Fischer. Fischer's book is well document, and very accurate. Fischer gives a comprehensive review of all the social and economic reasons that contributed to the rise of this politial monster. Fischer's work is also derived from some of the best writings and archival research."
27322,1,not for me,I thought this cassette was useless. The material was strange and not something I would apply to my life.
27395,1,Supernatual II,"I'm a huge Santana fan, I've been to over 15 shows and own nearly every LP, but I'm very disappointed by Shaman, which could easily have been called Supernatural II.This LP sounds and feels EXACTLY like Supernatural. Heck, even the video for ""Game of Love"" looks exactly like ""Smooth"". Supernatural was a great LP, and I'm very happy Carlos received the acolades he deserved from it, but I was hoping for a more Santana-like album this time around.The only songs that remotely sound like classic Carlos are ""Victory is Won,"" which was an instrumental mainstay of the last tour (you might remember it as the intro to ""Smooth"" at the 2000 Grammy Awards), and ""America,"" which really highlight's his mastery of the guitar.It's a shame Carlos seems to have gone pop.One good thing about Shaman: It should spark sales for Santana's classic albums, because that's what you'll want to hear after listening to Shaman."
27405,1,"Same story, different title","I've been reading other Julie Garwood books recently and this one is almost like an exact clone of The Secret... Tough man...small, weak woman... Boring!!! I really like Garwood's recent books but ones with the Highlander plots I have to force myself to finish."
27417,1,Not worth it....,Unfortunately this small vacumn has no power at all to pick up lint or dust...even when plugged in! I was very disappointed!
27434,1,Thankfully Over,"I just kept waiting for this movie to be over. It was agonizingly long, there were no redeeming characters, and shooting everyone in the movie in the head got a little repetitive. This is an excellent example of how just because you have big names involved in the movie, it doesn't automatically make the movie good. I wish I could have those fwe hours I wasted watching this movie back."
27520,1,They melt in the dishwasher,"They say dishwasher-safe, however, they melt in the lower rack of the dishwasher (the only place they fit). They were ok until dishwashing."
27534,1,a bore,"This is a VERY easy read that has a few very funny moments. However, it is a trivial narrative that only a baseball fan or someone who grew up in Long Island in the fifies would be captivated by. Too cute and with little point for the rest of us, but so short that anyone could give it a shot."
27568,1,"Slow, died after < 1 year","It was a good capacity at a cheap price, but very slow on D90 when images were set to RAW or Large JPEG.Died within less than a year of occasional (sometimes on weekends) use - not recommended!"
27574,1,Item fine but $25 shipping and handling was a rip off,This card is fine but $25 shipping and handling put me off this vendor.Have written twice and gotten no reply. Will appeal to Amazon.
27579,1,Stopped working,"As the title states, it just suddenly stopped working. Inserting it into my camcorder now just results in a prompt to format the card ... everytime. All old data was lost too, which for a 16GB care just means losing even more data at once. I'm going to stick with Sandisk brand from now on."
27582,1,Don't trust this card with anything important!,"The reason I did not give this SD Card a one star rating is because I bought two. The first card has worked fine. No issues. However, the second card failed shortly after I started using it. Unfortunately it failed, after I had just shot some very important and hard to duplicate video. A total disaster!I would suggest, if you are thinking about using this card for anything really important - DON'T!If you have to pay a bit more, I would do so for a higher quality, more dependable SD Card."
27593,1,CAUTION: These SD cards die after two months.,"I bought two of these cards to load video files. After two months, the first card started to give file system errors. Since I was using them on Ubuntu, I fsck'd the file system which took care of the problem for the time. But afterwords, same errors continued to pop up. The second card also did exactly what the first one reported. Bottom line, I believe these cards have a very low reliability score and are subject to ""infant mortality"", as called in the electronics industry. I will try SanDisk and see if the same happens. See my upcoming review, and be cautioned with this info."
27627,1,"Their weakest album, I guess.","This is a collection of outtakes and leftovers from the ""Rollercoaster"" album, and it's instantly noticeable why these songs were excluded from that album: except for ""New Jersey"" and ""Uncle Joe"", this is simply weak material. If you're a serious fan, you may like this, but novices should head for one of the other RHP albums first."
27659,1,The Five People You Meet In Heaven,Book of course is fiction. Read about the First Person You Meet IN Heaven and closed the book. Would love to have my money back. Very strange to be talking about Heaven!!!!!!!!!!!!!Don't want to read anything that confuses me and makes no sense at all. Other people in our Church feel the same way. Many that purchased the book feel the same way as I do.
27675,1,Dull Writing,"This book lacks the charm of Tuesdays with Morrie. The writing is flat and the story is rather old. The author has reworked material from Its a Wonderful Life, so the idea in the book is not original. Perhaps when the author meets his maker he can explain to the five people he will meet why he wrote this book, since the reason is not present in the text."
27747,1,Don't be MarmaDUPED,This Book was dumb. I give it just the one star because the cover was kind of cool. Otherwise it gets ZERO STARS. Marmaduke is too big to be a real dog. And I hate the way he looks. I don't understand how anyone could possible think this was a better book than Garfield Gets Cookin' or even Garfield Beefs Up.
27837,1,Are they serious!!!,"Someone please take this book off the shelves. I have never seen a published book with soo many mistakes. It's almost every other page there is some programming error that could cause a beginner (such as myself) to want to throw their computer out the window, until you snap to your senses and realize it's the book.Look on the bright side at least it makes a good paper weight, booster seat, and you can use the paper for paper airplanes and fires, but it doesn't make a good programming book for beginners."
27865,1,Not in my interest,"This book was not the kind of reading I like to do for relaxing or for entertainment. It was very repetitive and boring. I did not like the main character doing the same thing every day, they could have added more interesting activities. This is the only book from Oprah's Book Club that I read and it turned me off to read any more of them."
27895,1,small calf size = smaller ankle opening,The ankle opening for a size small is much too small to get over my daughters foot. If you can't slide it over your foot then it is useless. I was trying to replace a full lenghth one that was a wrap with a velcro closure. This one is a sock type. I loved the old one.
27912,1,Where was the editor?,This could have been much better with an editor. I didn't need to be told repeatedly about not speaking a Native American's name -once would have been plenty.
27917,1,Don't waste your money,"The author has no reasonable facts to back up his claims. Nearly all information in this book is either an outright lie, misinformation, or half-truth. Don't waste your time or money. This book isn't worth the paper it is printed on. Perhaps the author has his own agenda....BIG BUSINESS?"
27920,1,NOT 30.5 inches!!!!!!!!,"THIS GATE IS NOT 30 1/2 INCHES TALL. It is not even 29 inches. Maybe if you include the mounted mechanisms, it is. We have to raise the gate to mount onto our banisters. When we raised it just high enough to mount, there is enough space for a little one to squeeze through. If you need the height, don't buy this gate!!!!!!"
27929,1,pochohantas is bad,this movie is okay but some of the stuff in it just plain stupid. native women did not wear skirts. and thier dresses did not go above thier knees. and even if it the dress did come up high the woman would wear leggings. talking animals are just stupid if disney wanted this movie to be a good one then they should have researched native americans better. we did not talk to animals. oh yeah another thing is that native women are not tom boys and that is what pochohantas basicly is.
27936,1,What a SORRY A$$ way to go out!,"Since this is supposedly Master P's last album I ran out and bought it the minute it was released, I wish I could return this piece of $#!t. This album was extremely dissapointing especially since its a double CD and both of them are BOOTY. After Ice Cream Man, Ghetto D, and every other No Limit production he's been a part of I expected much more from the Last Don. Except for a few songs like Till we dead and gone, So many souls deceased,and Gangsta B!tc# the beats and rhymes just wasnt tight. Most of the songs on this CD are just too mellow and Not straight up gangsta $#!t like Im used to hearin from P. If you havent bought this yet save your money and buy Silkk the Shocker instead."
27982,1,poor quality,"I bought this thinking it would last at least for a while. The coating is already coming off on the bottom. I have only hand washed and used only plastic utensils. I have used this pan possibly a dozen or so times, but not much more than that. Surely a product shouldn't be that disposable should it? Now I'm looking for a good replacement, and this is going to the trash."
27998,1,horrible twist ties,"These bags are HORRIBLE. You have to fumble with the top to open the bag (not sanitary) then once you pour/pump the milk in, you have to put it in a mug to tie and freeze!! Who has time to wait for it to freeze to remove the mug!?!! Also dealing with the twist tie is a nightmare and it's impossible to get all the air out.Also, The bags take up too much room in the freezer. I LOVE the bags that can lie flat like Lansinoh (much easier to pour, freeze, and unthaw as they can lay flat). You can buy 25 Lansinoh bags for $6 at Target, and they're much much better qualityI'm throwing the rest of mine away. They're totally useless"
28001,1,Whiplash Not Worth It!,"An interesting insider's account of Hollywood. However, the endless dialogue is exhausting and makes for uncomfortable reading. More descriptive passages would have been useful."
28003,1,They Leak!,Bought two of these after seeing orioles at our humming bird feeders. The bottoms of each are made in two parts that screw together. The problem is that both of them slowly leak out through this joint and will become empty overnite. They are worthless!Opus 449-2 Oriole Feeder
28039,1,100% pure child abuse - destroying a child for life!,"This is 100% pure child abuse! This is a book for people who want to destroy a child for life! The author as so many others dysfunctional ""Christians"" claim to know what God wants, and believes that striking another human being makes them ""godly"". What went wrong with this author in his child hood? The author is manipulating the Holy Bible to give support for his sick child abuse and own dysfunctional childhood. Child abuse is NOT a way of raising children, and certainly NOT what God wants. Nowhere in the Bible does it say to strike a child! Children are God's gift. Not a ""thing"" to control and abuse as the author thinks. The violence towards children by these sick ""Christians"" is disgusting. Christian means ""Christ like"" which means to be humble, loving, giving, forgiving, gentle. ""Discipline"" comes from Latin ""to teach"" - not to spank, or punish."
28131,1,Disney needs to get over themselves.,"Anneliese Van Der Pol is my favorite disney singer, and Lalaine is great. They should be all over this CD. But no, these people at Disney decide to use the same singers who NEED a comeback, like Christy Carlson Romano. Or, even better, actors that want to be triple threats, such as Hilary Duff and Raven Symone. Raven, your a great actress, stick with that! And Haylie Duff, she's just riding the coattails of her baby sister. Disney, please, use singers that WE, the generation you are reaching for, actually LIKE!"
28140,1,Emperor's New Clothes,"Never have I seen a show rest so completely on its past laurels. Was the first season of Veroinca Mars fine and compelling television? Yes, it was. The same cannot be said for the later years, with this final season being the most creatively bankrupt and oddly self-impressed. Veronica Mars as a show and as a character are unrecognizable here. Even putting the misogynistic, homophobic and nonsensical storylines aside, Veronica Mars still manages to commit the cardinal sin of all entertainment: it is boring. What a sad end to a promising series."
28169,1,Dissapointing,"I'm returning this book. The book doesn't contain any instructions not even for basic fabric or paper lampshade. At first I thought that maybe I can get a good design idea for a lampshade I want to make, but there is no good ideas in the book if you are like me looking for simle or classic look. I don't see any reasons for me to keep this book."
28189,1,Creed Live,"Creed blows live ! I have always loved their studio albums, they sound great. But Scott Stapp sounds like s*&% live. A waste of money !!!!!"
28235,1,Total waste of money,"My husband and I bought this when I was pregnant with out first child we didn't buy it until I was 30 weeks pregnant we tried using it over and over again until I had the baby and it never worked!We tried using it again with our second child and it still didn't work, everyone i know has had the same results, you can hear your body but not the baby's heartbeat.Save your money and rent a neonatal unit those are great!"
28330,1,disappointed,"probably best suited for the hard core deadheads. although there are some highpoints, a good deal of the playing is listless and clumsy. too heavy on the weir vocals - or i should say bad weir vocals; he can sing but sometimes he tries too hard. these are the best performances they could find?"
28344,1,Starts off nice,"These socks were very comfortable, and looked great.I did not experience sock shrinkage like some people....they're wool: wash on cold, air dry them.Only problem is they now have a gaping hole in both big toes,after only 6 wearings. Not durable at all.I have size 13 feet btw... maybe they will hold up better for people with small feet."
28398,1,Disappointing. Poor editing. Older work is much better.,"I read some good early reviews on Amazon and bought the book on a whim. It's lousy, like his last several have been. Besides the rehashed plot, two-dimensional characters, and poor dialog, the book suffers from horrible editing. I'm sure Cussler can afford a proof reader and editor, but you couldn't prove it by this book. There are time/space conflicts, contradictions, subject/verb agreement problems, etc. I love Cussler's early stuff (Raise the Titanic, Sahara, etc.) but save your money and skip this one. If you want to read adventure pick up Lonesone Dove or early Cussler."
28406,1,Fail,"I was unable to get this generator started after following very poorly written directions. I followed the steps exactly and still, no sign of life. This led to me trashing everything in my freezer/fridge, which is why I bought this generator in the first place. I found it extremely difficult to pull the starter chord. Put fresh gas and oil in the machine and checked all other levers/switches, including choke.In short, I did everything correctly to the book and yet I did not get so much as a cough out of it. Also, as a rather fit man, I could physically barely pull the starter chord. Totally unacceptable and it failed me when I needed it during last night's power outage....If I could meet a representative from this company in person I would love to share my thoughts with them and tell them how awesome it was to throw away a month's worth of frozen breast milk for my newborn....that made my wife extremely happy as I'm sure you can guess."
28489,1,Very disappointed.,"Others seem to have had a much better experience with this item, and we can't understand why. When assembling the table, it quickly became clear that it was poorly made and the components were badly engineered. For example, one of the bars would not accept the screw that the manufacturer provided for it - the screw would not bite. The dowels were not well sanded and seemed as if they could cause splinters. We decided it wasn't worth continuing the assembly and returned it. Also note, the shelves are made of a very thin composite wood and are flimsy. This thing is overpriced and unsafe."
28582,1,Good......but hardly a breakthrough,"As one might expect, the scholarship of Jane Schaberg is of a very high standard. However, she takes far too much mileage from the supposition that the word ""Magdalene"" means from the modern Israeli town of Migdal. There is absolutely no evidence that Migdal, like Nazareth, existed during the early first century. Magdalene and Nazarene are no doubt important titles, but what they might actually mean is apparently of no concern to Schaberg. So she imposes onto the ancient Jews a westernized set of norms that don't threaten her presuppositions. The upshot is that the reader is no closer to understanding Mary Magdalene."
28588,1,Cliche and then some,"If she is teaching people to write its a sad day for anyone who takes writing seriously.The book reads like a bad cliche. Well..I didn't exactly finish it, but as far as I got. I can see why there are so few reviews here, don't bother with this one."
28603,1,Printed guides for MMO's are a bad idea for consumers,"The info is always a little (or a lot) dated. Unless you are completely new to this type of game, there's little benefit to buying these things unless you're really hard up for bathroom reading. You're better off printing of a few pages from a game's main website or player bulletin board occasionally. City of Heroes, in particular, de-emphasizes statistics, loot, and catalogs of secrets. As you play, most all of the info you need simply unfolds before you.While there's always testy people on the internet, this game has fostered a refreshingly friendly and helpful community of players for the most part. If something is going over your head, ask a teammate or someone hanging around the superhero trainers for an explanation."
28607,1,Feels like a one-off contract fulfillment,"This lame book is characterized by clumsy, cliche and lazy writing. Lawhead has done little more than recycle all his old tricks and is slowly becoming a parody of himself with this travesty. The first three books of this series were brilliant and moving meditations on the Arthurian legend. He explored new facets of the legend and brought wonderful characters to life, making them move and breath, drawing us into their stories. They were grand, emotional and dramatic tapestries. And this book (along with its predecessor Pendragon) do not deserve to be named as part of the series. From the thinly disguised over the top and heavy handed Christian theme to the cliched Morgian and the absolute ripoff near the end: the knights getting lost in Morgian's dark forest. The contrived ending is enough to make us wretch. Unfortunately the once great Lawhead has lost it."
28650,1,DO not buy this piece of crap,This set of radio headphones are total junk. Avoid and do not purchase this product they're not worth $40.00 much less $128.00. There is no radio dial or reference for frequency and they are cheap and poorly made with poor reception to boot.Total crap DO NOT EVEN THINK OF WASTING YOUR MONEY ON THIS JUNK.
28699,1,Waste of money and time!,Item worked once for less than a minute and never worked again. I guess I got what I paid for. Hopefully you wont make that same mistake buying this junk. It should be taken out of circulation.
28700,1,Surprise,"I was expecting a book, not a catalog. I didn't find this useful. That said, it's a very beautiful publication."
28712,1,Leaks are major problem,"After many incidences of soaking my daughter by feeding her with these leaking bottles, or shaking them and splattering breastmilk or formula all over the kitchen, I strongly recommend not buying this product. Of all the things that are challenging and frustrating about caring for a new baby, bottle-feeding should not be one of them."
28759,1,blocks peripheral vision,these are stylish glass. If you do not need peripheral vision. glass lenses are too small. you can see the frames in your field of vision. Only pro is the carrying case.
28788,1,Old product,"I've bought and used this product locally at thehealth food store for years. This time I purchasedthe larger size to save money from Amazon.The product from the health food store was sealedand the tablets were fresh with a hard shell andslight vitamin smell.The product from Amazon was also sealed, but thetablets were softer and had a heavy vitamin smell.This condition results from having the tabletsexposed to the air for at least a months time.This tells me that the tablets sat out at thefactory and aged, then packaged and shipped.Its a shame! I'll go back to buying locally inthe smaller quantity again, or start looking fora similar product. So it goes with products intodays world. No integrity!"
28804,1,Crappy Product -> Crappy Hands,"I honestly do not understand the positive reviews this product is getting. I've never used the DG1, but I've only used the DG2 for less than a week and will be going to purchase some other diaper disposal system today. I guess the system keeps down the smell OK, but I'm not sure that it's totally worth it to have to get excrement on your hands every time you change a diaper. As mentioned by previous posters, there is a spring mounted mechanism that makes you forcibly push the dirty diaper down into the contraption. If the diaper is full, squishing it up against the odor locking door forces the diaper's contents to come out. I just don't get how this is a good system. I honestly don't think buying the refills are all that burdensome since they aren't too much more expensive than garbage bags, my main beef is the ease-of-use and sanitary aspects of the product. Would not recommend!"
28811,1,The Fourth Estate,"I was very disappointed with the state of this book. It was in very poor condition and stained. I knew that it was second-hand but it was stated that it was in ""good"" condition."
28833,1,Horrible book. Right wing conspiracy nuts would not agree.,"The book is set in the near future, but there has been a lot of change. Hunters are no longer able to hunt, so Washington is overrun with deer. If that's plausable to you, then you might enjoy this dreadful book.McCarry did show some flair for writing. His Speaker of the House, a drunk with a photographic memory who quotes the bible, was a hoot. The lesbian, Slim and Sturdi, were about a multi dimentional as Ren and Stimpy.If McCarry keeps the conspiracy politics out of his writing, he may be an intertesting read. Until then, I suggest that you avoid him."
28844,1,Not what I expected.,"This one was kind of a bummer for me. I didn't like it as much as I expected to and as The Great Gatsby is my favorite book, I had very high expectations.Out of the nine short stories, I liked one. One. Porcelain and Pink; which appealed to me just because it had a few humorous moments. The other eight stories were either just okay, or a struggle to get through because they just felt so ""blah"" to me.I really like Fitzgerald, but in my opinion, he is more of a novelist than a short story writer. I haven't disliked any of his novels that I've read (so far), but for some reason, his short stories don't have the same oomph. I was also expecting more of a Jazz theme, rather than a collection of stories that just happen to be set in the 20's when Jazz was the thing.I'm sure there are many people who love his short stories, but were someone to ask me what they should read to start on Fitzgerald's cannon, I would definitely suggest his novels."
28850,1,Run Away,Peggy O'Mara is an awful writer and an even worse advocate for attachment and natural parenting. This book is badly written and full of shallow platitudes that show only how out of touch O'Mara is with children and motherhood.
28852,1,The Absolute Worst,"This is positively one of the absolute worst films I've ever watched. Hard to imagine that anyone could take a subject as interesting and provacative as reincarnation and manage to turn out a film as excruciatingly boring and tedious as this one.A major bowser, folks. Don't waste your time."
28866,1,Funny but not always fun,"Ghost takes over bodies for their sex energy. Really. Must have been a rough week for the writers, though some of the tech created for this episode is done nicely. Not bad, not great. Sexy if you're seventeen. Consider this episode a bologna sandwich on white bread with mayonnaise...nothing else. It fills you up but doesn't nourish or inspire."
28898,1,"This is so, like, shallow","What a waste of paper. Do not waste your time on this book, unless you want to learn deep facts like what kind of cheese Ms. hughes recommended that George bush put on his cheeseburger on 9/12/2001. good lord, is this what our country has come to? As a life-long Republican, I am appalled."
28906,1,this film lacks the oxygen to make it a really good thriller,"This film has an intense premise and the thriller aspects of it should have a high pace, but the psychological torments just don't add up. Adrien Brody is superb and creepy as the Houdini killer. At times the film feels made-for-TV rather than a true portrayal of the horror of this drama. Henry (played by Brody) asks the female detective (played by Maura Tierney) is she knows what's it's like being clever. That seems to be the problem with this film - it tries to be clever rather than to follow the logistical progression of its own storyline."
28970,1,stretching too far,"I enjoyed the whole Mitford series as a delightful and enjoyable escape. Therefore I was disappointed after reading Karon's latest. It was entertaining and was a satisfying completion of the series but it could have been included in the previous book instead of stretching it into another book. I read the whole thing in a couple of hours. The pages of this book had wide margins and was obviously straining to fill enough pages to make a book. I don't like feeling that an author is taking advantage of her public. Having said all this, I still enjoyed finishing up the series with the marriage. It was sweet and left me with a warm fuzzy feeling."
28972,1,Like garlic?,"We have had Omaha Steak products for years.We have had stuffed sole (crab and shrimp) that was very nice and convenient.This was awful. Not worth tasting. All we could taste was garlic. It was very buttery(?) on the outside and alittle rubbery.Left a terrible, overwhelming after taste.We will not even ask for a replacement, which Omaha is not very good at doing anyway."
28985,1,Not for kids!!!!,"I must say it is NOT for kids at all!! There are so many curse words and inappropriate themes through this movie! I picked it up because I thought it was like THe Bugs Life, but no. This one will be making its way into the trash bin."
29004,1,Its bad,the plug that actually goes into the Zune hole is badly designed it almost broke it. while the original one is perfect and now way you can plug it the wrong way this one is rather ill matching.
29008,1,Did I read the same book?,This book was so bad that I have to wonder if family and friends of the author wrote the other reviews. I feel like I was deceived since I got it based on those same reviews. To be honest I didn't (couldn't) actually read the whole thing. I think I threw it against the wall after 50 or 60 pages. I forced myself to read that far. I should have gone with my initial reaction and tossed it after the first 5 pages.
29040,1,Kid stuff,"There should have been a "" Smurf "" on the package face instead of an adult so that older persons don't make the mistake of buying it. So far,of all of the golf games that I've purchased,nothing compares to "" Tiger Woods Golf "" ."
29075,1,Either a defective product or poorly designed,"I knew there was a problem with this scale the first time my son weighed himself and it recorded his weight 25+lbs over his weight. He stepped on the scale 3 times in a row and got 3 different weights each at least 20 lbs more than he weighs. The second day, thinking perhaps the scale was not on a level space, we moved it to another location. The LED's that are supposed to indicate that it is balanced did not work properly -- kept indicating the person needed to move to one side even when there was no room left on the scale to do so. Giving it one more try, the third day, 4 different members of the family tried several times to weigh themselves. It was impossible to get the same weight twice in a row and there were variations from 1-15 lbs. We returned it on the fourth day. I'm not sure if I just got a defective product or if this is poorly designed product but I didn't take any chances. I would not recommend this product nor would I buy it again."
29077,1,Wasn't what I paid for.,"Instead of the video cassette advertised, I received a tape of a family's home movies in the sleeve."
29087,1,BAD PICTURES,"THIS BOOK IS ONE OF THE WORST FAIRIE BOOKS I HAVE EVER READ. NOT ONLY IS THE WRITING HORRIBLE, BUT SO ARE THE PICTURES."
29139,1,Not Impressed!,"This was my first digital camera and I am not impressed with it. It drains batteries within 1-2 hours of use, there is a large delay in everything and my camera dosen't ever turn on anymore. It does take beautiful pictures, though I have to admit. My advice is buy a Canon, Nikon or Kodak camera instead of any Olympus."
29142,1,worse,"I thought that Battletech novels had hit an all time low with 'SWORD AND FIRE'. I was wrong. This represents the new achievment for poorly written Sci-Fi. If you stick this book Next to ANYTHING written by Michael Stackpole, you will kill your self laughing. Give us Stackpole, Charrette and Coleman."
29153,1,Vac which refuse to Suck !,"I have been using this vacuum cleaner for about a year now and I feel it is not a good one (even though I like the bagless feaure, light in weight and an OK price) here is why:(1) The suction is WEAK, many reviewers think the opposite and I believe they were mislead by the effect of the powerful brush! The brush scrapped materials from the surface of the carpet and gives false impression that lots of dirt is collected.(2) It picks up dog hair and dust ok, but not even a small object on the floor (especially bear floor without carpet).(3) The brush keeps rolling at high speed even when the vacuum is in up-right position. I think this is really a poor design.(4) Very noisy, it is louder than the one I had before (which was truly a powerful one).If you are looking for serious vac, I do not recommend this one."
29160,1,Piece of junk,"I ordered this Zojirushi coffee maker thinking this was a great coffee pot. It is a piece of junk.It is light weight, the water leaked out, the brew button was hard to push down...and after the second useit quit even coming on or producing coffee...Don't buy it.......I didn't keep my box and have written the company but have not got a response from them or amazon."
29161,1,Worst coffee maker ever,Bad design results in more coffee on the counter than in the carafe. What a waste! Very unhappy with this purchase.
29170,1,Bad experience,"Unfortunately, 5 weeks after purchasing this product, it completely stopped functioning. When turned on, NOTHING happens. The heating element appearsto have failed. To make matters worse, I've been in contact with the seller (Dynadirect. com) through email to try and exchange the machine or get it repaired, and they have not responded to my 3 emails. Therefore, I would NOT recommend this item."
29187,1,"""Close But No Cigar""","Steinberg came up with an interesting plot idea. However, his writing ability isn't strong enough to cause you to care about the characters and ,more importantly, about the outcome of the story. Overall, I'd rate The Gemini Man as ""fair""."
29196,1,Mediocre viewing and listening experience,"This Walkure production has drawbacks both musically and visually. While James Morris has the right size of voice for Wotan, his range of tone colour is seriously limited. As a result, his Wotan comes across as rather one-dimensional. Hildegard Behrens certainly looks the part of the warrior maiden. Unfortunately, her voice is worn and her lower register is virtually non-existent. Jessye Norman sings with a radiant tone, yet both she and her partner, Gary Lakes, are just not convincing at all on the stage for these roles. The other smaller parts are just adequately taken. The Met orchestra is on top form under the sure hand of James Levine. However, Levine's interpretation is not very memorable. The production is a rather traditional one and while it does not offer anything outrageous, it is playing a bit too safe. Some of the stage direction is in fact rather unimaginative and constricted. On the whole, just a mediocre viewing and listening experience."
29199,1,"Now made in China, not Japan","For years I was sent this product, but now it's made in China, no longer made in Japan. The quality is nowhere near the old discs."
29270,1,One of the crappiest CD's I've heard in a long time,"I loved the Timbaland produced song ""I'll Be Around"", so I thought, ""Ya know I think I'll get the CD for the heck of it. The singles pretty good, so why not buy the album!"" And so I did.I made the biggest mistake ever. I wasted thirteen bucks on this good for nothing CD. I've heard ""I'll Be Around"" so many times now that I'm sick of it. In other words, there is no other reason to put this CD in my CD player except for that song and the Neptune produced songs, ""Art of Noise"" and ""Let's Stay Together"", which are just alright.The other songs of this so called album, are crap. This Cee-Lo guy can't even rap or sing! What will he do know? If someone can't sing then surely they must be able to rap! Well, Cee-Lo proved me wrong.Don't waste you're time or money to even think about this CD! Stray away from it as far as you can; it stinks!"
29271,1,"Not the ""VHS"" version","I had purchased the VHS version of this show some years ago. It is a great video. Jack Perkins has one of those great ""booming baritone"" voices for doing voice-over work and a great personality to go along with it. When I saw that a DVD of the show was available, I bought it. Within minutes of playing it, I discovered that this DVD version is NOT simply the VHS version on DVD but an entirely different one. So if you're thinking that this DVD is just a ""remastered"" version of the original VHS version, be forewarned. I can't speak highly enough of the ""original"" VHS version. Absolutely one of my favorite Christmas videos."
29303,1,NO results for the money,not very impressive for the amount of money i paid for this lotion...just made my face a little red with no results.
29306,1,14 Years,If you're looking to buy this album...do so...for one reason: the song 14 years. I would put it in my top 5 songs of all time.
29322,1,It doesn't last...poor quality,"I purchased this several months ago and have used it quite a bit. I hadn't used all the chippers at one time until the other day. When I attempted to use the chipper I hadn't used before the hole is not round, its oval, so it doesn't fit on the saw. Next, one of the chippers broke. The blade part, which is welded on flew off. I mainly used this with plywood and used my Forrest for other wood. I have to say, there is no comparison between the two in quality and cut.**update**I still agree with my review but about a year ago I read an article praising the CMT Dado. I use them all the time and they work great and much cheaper than these things."
29440,1,A hack potboiler,"It could have been fun reading if it were written better, but it's horrible, really. From the beginning, the Americans gleefully slaughter medieval bad guys while spewing out jingoistic garbage. These Americans make The Terminator look like a diplomat. This is not for fans of fantasy or even sci-fi; but given its graphic and gratuitous violence, maybe for fans of horror."
29461,1,"Lawyers love it, your wallet won't","There's two books with this same title, and I bought both when it came time to do the deed.The first book, published by Nolo, assumes you want to avoid lawyers and handle most of the work yourself. It shows you how to look at the big picture, to separate the financial picture from the emotional. It's packed with legal and practical advice throughout. My copy became worn out, I referred to it so much over the ensuing months of my divorce.The other (this one) seems to copy the original book above, but continually encourages you to go to attorneys -- where you'll spend loads of money for no good reason. No wonder most of the positive reviews of this book are written by lawyers!"
29529,1,try a little harder,"It was entertaining but screamed low budget. I could have handled the horrible werewolf costume and plot but the acting was buy far the worst I have ever seen. Everything else was awesome. The location was original, the gore was good. All that being said I do plan on keeping my DVD and watching it on nights when I get drunk with my friends."
29566,1,10 worst movies ever list,"I hated this movie. I went into it with an open mind, I hadn't heard much about it and I've heard good things about Von Trier, but 3/4 into the movie I was very much regretting my decision to watch this film. The imagery was cool - at first - but then things started to make no sense, got too bizarre, and then downright ludicrous. Nothing made sense, this was a mess of a movie."
29583,1,Upgrade from NIS 2003 to NIS2004 - 5 hours and not done...,This Company needs major improvements in the software development for users. I have now spent 5 hours trying to upgrade from NIS 2003 to NIS 2004 and it is full of errors. I can't use my computer until this is fixed.Their support is worthless. This is the 2nd time I tried to get help from their support team and it has been a waste of time.Think twice about upgrading with them unless you are a computer expert or have one to help you when you have problems.
29589,1,Too bad no negative stars,"Absolutely AWFUL software. Don't buy it. It conflicts with DHCP addressing on networks, wreaks havoc with networking (esp. wireless) software on Windows, and requires an endless amount of tweaking to get Outlook to work correctly. There is also no real support for the software from Symantec, and if you call your ISP to complain that your email doesn't work, they'll say, ""Oh, you're using Internet Seurity, sorry we have many problems with that and don't support it..."" About the only decent thing that comes with it is a neat Viusal Tracker for WHOISing would be attackers. But, from what I hear, there isn't a whole lot a hacker has to do to get past this useless piece of software. So a would-be hacker is probably already a has-done hacker..."
29605,1,Wide Screen version ERROR,"When I order DVD's, I prefer full screen versions of the movies. This movie wasn't advertised properly by Amazon.com. They should have disclosed that it was a wide screen version. I probably won't buy DVD's from them anymore if they can't include whether or not the video is wide screen or full screen."
29643,1,Completely inaccurate and insipid,I want people to know that this is a very inaccurate portrayal of one small town in Wisconsin. Very few of the things in this film actually happened in Black River Falls. Most of them happened throughout the state and happened over a very long time period of over 50 years. This kind of schlock gives communities unwarranted reputations. Besides being inaccurate it is also just plain badly filmed. The whispering during the asylum scenes (which was not located in or very near to Black River Falls) as especially annoying.
29747,1,Great Advertisement - poor book,"This book covers a lot of the fundamental basics that other books contain, but the recurring theme throughout is, ""If you really want to learn how the market works you should subscribe to my newsletter"".I don't know if the Investor's Business Daily is any good, but certainly the credibility of the author is damaged in my eyes... IBD should have paid me to read this extended advertisement, rather than the other way around."
29749,1,It is good but....,"This book is actually a good one, but the problem is that a similar content can be accessed on the internet. Investors.com in the IBD learning center section have a simplified version of the book. This is actually disappointing."
29755,1,Poor A/V for a great movie!,"Absolutely the WORST display of 1080p/DTS-HD Master Audio I've ever experienced! Truly a wonderful movie that was haphazardly transferred to HD, & from Germany no less!!! Such a crime...I hope this one will have a better restoration in the future...for all those who appreciate this fine motion picture!"
29758,1,Deathrider,"This is one of those albums that sometimes is trendy for people to claim a thrash classic. After the first track there is nothing really to praise whatsoever. I never really cared for this and much preferred ""Spreading the Disease"" and ""Among the Living."" And don't get me started on Neil Turbin, it's not like I really ever was a fan of Joey either, but this guy is so far from satisfactory. He sounds like a bad Paul Baloff, and since every thrash singer typically sounded like a bad James Hetfield, well you get the idea."
29764,1,MSI TV card,"Wasn't impressed with this card. The controller software looks like it's designed for a pre-teen, and it's not easy to set up (It could be that a 5th grader is smarter than I am!). Great if all you want to do is watch TV on your PC (recording showss another is another thing). I ended up giving this one away and bought a Hauppauge PVR350 (sp?) which does everything I want it to, easy to use and doesn't make me feel embarrased when friends see the interface in my screen"
29816,1,Retyping a few interviews does not = a biography,"Don't be fooled by the intentionally deceptive marketing used to peddle this book as a biography - this is actually a handful of Whedon interviews, readily available on the Internet, retyped in roughly chronological order. A few quotes from the actors are thrown in for some faux-breadth. There are NO first-hand interviews behind this book, NO input from Whedon himself, and NO new information that even casual Buffy fans haven't heard before. The entire thing has the feel of something thrown together in a single day for a quick buck.Please learn from my mistake and save yourself $16; to get all the useful information in this book, type +""Joss Whedon"" +interview into Google and you can read the very same interviews Havens worked from first-hand, without having to waste money and time slogging through this distasteful mess."
29817,1,Easily the Worst Children's Book We Have Ever Read,"It isn't funny or entertaining in the least. Our daughter (almost 4) is good at getting the jokes that are aimed at her age, did not understand why this boy's mother had abandoned him. I had to explain what was happening. The mother depicted in the book represents a truly poor parent by dumping her son with some aunt in a department store basement while she spends an extraordinary amount of time shopping for luxury stuff for herself. When she comes back she admonishes him for going to slow because they have ""miles more shopping to due"". I guess you're supposed to say ""Yeah that's really funny, I'll have to try that some time"". This bozo need to stay away from writing children's books."
29847,1,"no,no,no people!","Ok, Simple Plan, is simply don't buy it. They may play their own instruments, but that doesn't mean they are great. Their album names are lame and not creative at all. it sucks, really. there are so many other bands out there to listen too. i don't seem enthralled with this band, i don't think they have much to work with. also they play on TRL so much, which is not such a acomplishment. They aren't really that 'punk-rock'.. come on. with those dumb titles?! really, get serious. real punk rockers would puke all over this. they'd be ashamed. if you like them, well you do, but i sure don't. check out other bands, and maybe you'll find this CD, eventually.. getting to the back of that shelf of yours."
29862,1,"A gallant, but blindly flawed attempt at sound philosophy","In this work of Plato, the author greatly strives to define justice. He tries to put forth what would be a perfect society. The problem with Plato is that he left Jehovah, the true God, out of his philosophy. Jehovah is the center of everything, and without Him, there is no truth. Since Plato rejected belief in the true God, and whole, intact truth is only found in that true God, Plato's philosophy is understandably flawed. Of course, as THE REPUBLIC is a popularly recongnized classic, one may find it useful to read it, in order to understand the viewpoint of the masses who accept it, provided one compares it with the truth of God's word, the Bible."
29867,1,Painful and Sloppy,"I bought these in gold after owning a different pair of nine west slingbacks. They were terrible and never stayed on my foot! My toes went over the top, they flopped around in the back, and when they were on they were too painful to walk in."
29887,1,"My first Mac laptop, and a poor experience","I got a good first impression, but it went downhill from there. I really wanted to believe that kid from ""Jeepers Creepers"" in the Apple ads that this computer didn't crash, but it seemed flakier than any Windows box I've used recently.The Pros:- boots fast. Sleeps/Recovers well. Wireless works weellThe Cons:- Slower than I expected- I found the UI to be baffling, coming from the Windows world- I've had it crash. Mac doesn't exactly blue-screen. You get a message saying ""you need to reboot"". But it's the same thing- Frustrated that a lot of apps I was used to weren't available for the Mac- Occasionally, the screen would get ""scrambled"" and I would need to move windows around to refresh it- Battery life wasn't as good as I hoped. My Sony TX does *much* better."
29993,1,15 minutes is all you need,"A one dimensional film, if you are interested in a better experience try the film wasteland. This documentary if you can call it a documentary never goes beyond the superficial life of a few bottle collectors with no connection as to who they are beyond buying and selling plastic bottles and sometimes cooper wire for recycle.The documentary is filmed using dated interlaced video, normally up close which separates the viewer from the city and you never get a sense of compassion for any of the characters. If you watch the trailer - you just saw the complete documentary, nothing moves beyond that. Keep your money for something else."
30029,1,Egyptian Arabic Vocab Clinic,I am studying colloquial Egyptian Arabic now with private tutors In Cairo online. So far 95 percent of the words I have looked up on the Egyptian Arabic Vocab Clinic are not included. Arabic script cannot be used to specific searches either.I do not like the product so far.Robert Leifels
30031,1,"mommy gets killed, kiddo gets fancy new duds, and one elephant eats mushroom and dies","Uh, classic or not, I don't care for this book. It's yet another kill the mom book -just lioke all the disney stuff starts out. I don't think this is a good choice for today's wee ones. This is NOT what I'd choose to read at bedtime with my kids at all."
30032,1,Great for young people,"This book might be more appropriately filed under 'young readers'. First, it is a small book, hardly more than a paperback. Second, it does not go into any depth about Chinese houses, but gives more of a conversational style overview of culture and history. Illustrations are few and far between. There are no plans, elevations, or serious architectural drawings. Any seventh grader with a report due should be thrilled to find this book. Anyone else will be left wanting. How odd - it is an Oxford University publication."
30052,1,Boring,"I bought this cd with high expectations...but I was let down. This cd is very boring and Christina Aguilera should have left the spanish alone. None of the songs are entertaining, the only one I liked was Una Mujer....only because it is very funny to listen to."
30127,1,"Good press, but it broke","I had the smaller version of this press for years, and it worked fine and remained together all that time. Less than a year ago, I thought it would be nice to get the larger size. This press worked just like the small version, and I was happy with it until it broke in two. The pin that holds the two pieces together came out, and it is impossible to fix without drilling a hole all the way through the two pieces and inserting a different pin.I hope I can locate my old press......."
30139,1,The worst installation ever...,"I put one star for a simple reason... i cant play any of the games right now ... the steam is ""updating team fortres"" come on !! the program is download the complete game. 2 DVD for a 40MB Steam installer? it is a joke... why dont they put the f*** games in the DVD? i payed for a game, not for a downloader. Its more easy to put the shop only online and pay for the downloads, but if i buy the ""box"" I asume I will get the complete games... and the single player of Half life? why dont they say that we need to download too? At leats put an advice in the box: ""Only for download the games"" and stop to cheat the buyers. The games are good stuff, but Valve and Steam have just one start."
30172,1,Not working after 2 years,"We bought the camcorder 2 years ago. It worked excellently for 2 years and after that suddenly the screen went black. The battery is fine because if I put the battery on a different camcorder, it shows that it has 152 mins worth of recording time left. Searching the internet I found that lot of people had similar issues of LCD screen going black after 2 years of using the camera.If I connect the camcorder directly to an electrical outlet it works for couple of minutes and then goes black again. I am unable to copy the images and videos because the camcorder should be turned on to copy the media.In conclusion I am happy with the product but that only lasted for 2 years, I should have bought a 5 year warranty."
30179,1,Grand Theft Author,"As a highly trained professional traveler, I must recommend that no one purchase this book under any circumstance. The writer is out of touch with all modern thought. To visit these beautiful countries with your nose buried in one of his books is dangerous, thoughtless and rude. If travel information is vital, simply read Kotaku, one of the greatest blogs in the world.In summary, save your money for something valuable- like videogames, heroin and teen pregnancy."
30237,1,Not enough space and the leather feels cheap.,This case wallet is pretty small. it doesn't have enough space for all my travel documents.I also noticed that the stitching are coming off and the leather is feels cheap.I would not recommend this to a friend.
30306,1,Below Binchy's Best,"I eagerly looked forward to this book - I'm a true Binchy fan - and I was disappointed. While the setting is intriguing and her warmth is there, the characters are boring and one-dimensional, and the story is so plodding and predictable it is unbelievable - I kept reading it, expecting one of the famous Binchy twists, but it never came. I kept wondering where her startling insights into characters had gone - these were stock characters, with none of the unique and human foibles that make most of her characters so memorable and alive.If you are not a Binchy fan, please don't judge her books by this one - read London Transports, Next Year It Will Be Different, Circle of Friends, Dublin Tales, etc. Those are all wonderful, and show why she is so beloved by readers."
30333,1,Boring......,Stick with the 2002 and 2003 CD's. This one lacks the kick of the others and the chosen songs don't flow well.
30349,1,Blake Smith Sells Out,"It's a shame that a writer as gifted as Blake Smith (late of Fig Dish) feels the need to offer up novelty tripe like ""Tangerine Speedo."" There are some nice tracks on this album, but the band is clearly not interested in making the challenging pop they are probably capable of. If you want super commercial RAWK why not just buy the Creed albums and get it over with? What a waste of talent . . . . but I'll probably go see them when they come to town anyhow."
30368,1,Should have been thrown away,"I ordered this book for a friend who is going to be laid up for awhile after some surgery. He is a history buff so I thought this would be a good read for him since we are planning a road trip into southern Oregon and northern California after he recovers from his surgery. What a disappointment. The book was published in the 1950's and probably spent most of its life in a high humidity attic or something. When I opened the package there was an immediate odor of mildew. As I thumbed through the faded pages, each page smelled the same. My wife who has a much better sense of smell than I, immediately condemned the book to the garage, where it now sits. My friend will never see that book. It probably should have been thrown away long, long ago. I'm not saying that the book wasn't interesting, it probably is, but it's a shame that it couldn't have been in better shape. My loss, lesson learned."
30393,1,Doesn't work,Fits the pool great until the wind blows! I'd spend 5 dollars on this but 20 + shipping is not worth it!
30446,1,coffee not hot anymore after 5 months of use,This is the second and last Faberware coffee pot that we buy. The first one we had a year and that one almost caused a fire. My husband plugged it in the wall and it shorted out. We bought this one that we have now at the end of August 2011. The other day my husband who always lets me make his cup of coffee said - hey you aren't making the coffee good anymore. Well it turns out that we think the thermostat is gone. Five months!!! We have only had this for 5 months. The coffee is barely warm even when you let it sit for a while. A couple of years ago we had a GE percolator and it was great - we bought it at Walmart. We can't find any other brands besides Faberware to buy now though. I am going to call the customer service line tomorrow to see what can be done about this. If they send us another one maybe that will buy us some time so I can find a good brand. These percolators should last years! Wish me luck in finding a good brand!
30448,1,WONT LAST AND ONLY ONE YEAR WARRANTY,"I have purchased two of these percolators in the last three years. One to replace the other due the warranty being expired. Both stopped working shortly after the warranty. The first did not keep coffee hot and the second one did not work at all after a year or so, also heating problem. Prior coffee percolator from Farber purchased in the 80's, way back when, lasted many years so I purchased two again......both have been disappointing. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. I am going to try a different brand. Too bad because I did like the way the coffee came out when it did work!"
30463,1,Works great but coffee taste has poor quality.,"This works great. It's stainless steel, which is a plus. But the coffee does not taste very good. The same coffee beans ground for a drip coffee maker taste remarkably better. This makes great coffee beans taste like coffee store generic beans. Also, it take twice as much coffee to make an equal amount of coffee. So, over the long term, it's more expensive to use."
30466,1,Quality not what they used to be.,"We purchased this percolator because my wife's mother owned one for over 20 years and it worked great. It made good coffee.Well the first one we bought broke within 3 months. Heating element went out. We returned and got another. This one lasted a year and half. Then the heating element went out. Had it fixed as it was outside of warranty. 1 year later it broke again. Surprise, the heating element went out.Keeping the price down has a downside, cheaper parts that do not stand up over time. I would prefer to spend a little more and not have to replace it every year or so. My mother-in-law got quite the deal in only having to buy it once in 2 decades.We are done with Farberware."
30492,1,Too naive to be believable,"Is Shawn supposed to be a man of the 90's? It was humorous but a slow read, I skipped the profiles on each type of woman but must admit they seem to be on target. Michael Baisden's book was more timely."
30506,1,There are better choices available,"AppleWorks isn't really a bad product - it's been around for quite a few years, previously as ClarisWorks - but it desperately needs an update. For example, version 6.2.7 still doesn't take full advantage of features found in Mac OSX. Furthermore, it has some rather strange interface quirks and lacks some important features (spellcheck as you type, for example). My recommendation: spend an extra $50 and buy Microsoft Office v.X for student and teacher, which is a much better software package. Another option is to buy a drawing/layout software prgoram such as The Print Shop for Mac OSX, by MacKiev, which offers excellent design and print capabilities for all sorts of projects (labels, greeting cards, calendars, etc). Hopefully Apple will update AppleWorks someday soon."
30527,1,Waste of MONEY!!! Can I have it BACK??,"I brought this because I have a small business and I wanted something I could use but also affordable. No one told me that this software doesnt' work with Windows XP. So I called Microsoft Tech team for assistance, they told me that don't have any technical information that could solve my problem for Microsoft Money 2004. They had helpful tools, hints, solving problem issues, for 2003, 2005 & 2006 but not 2004 so they were useless. The problems is that software didnt' give me the option to input my user name just password so every time I tried to log in it would tell me invalid username & password. Instead of giving me a box to enter my username it only gave me a file destination location. TRUST me, this software doesn't work with XP."
30531,1,I'm a sucker,"I wish I had read reviews of this product before I shelled out $150 for it. After about 6 months, it has stopped working. The clock sometimes appears hours ahead or behind, the controls suddenly stop working, either by remote or on the unit, including the manual volume knob (which apparently isn't manual). Sometimes I can't even turn the machine OFF. So I unplug it for about 4 hours, then plug it back in and it works for about a day. THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE BIGGEST JOKE ON THE AMERICAN CONSUMER. I feel like an idiot! And the worst part about it is that I bought it after I saw it advertised on the NPR website... a place I used to trust implicitly."
30554,1,Piece of crap,"Very Very hard to set up. Myself, husband or teenage computer nerd had hard time figuring out. When finally got it then the alarm was not reliable. One time late for work was all it took. Sent it back."
30555,1,No. Just no.,"I ordered one for every movie and the other three, from other sellers were fantastic; this one on the other hand was bent to hell and had to sit under a flat surface for a day just to be ""sort of okay."" I put it up for now, but I'll definitely be replacing it ASAP."
30561,1,Guadalcanal Diary,"This firm was advertized on Amazon as being in ""color."" A black and white version was delivered to me, even though I had inquired of Amazon if the film was actually ""color"" and Amazon had assured me that it was definitely color. I knew the film was originally in black and white, but was swayed to buy the film in the belief, as marketed, that it had been colorized, which is what I was looking for."
30570,1,long long long...,"This movie is full of clichés: all white people are racists or are being robbed; the gangster pretends to respect a samurai way of life but he's just killing, robbing, and kissing pigeons. There is nothing constructive in his movie, nor there is a real samurai philosophy."
30571,1,Confusing and slow,"I saw this on a movie channel and was very surprised to find out later it was a Jarmusch movie. It's a pale [copy] of ""The Professional"" really, with only limited action and a lot of long sequences where the lead character just drives around. His whole life doesn't make much sense either; a rather overweight black man living by the samurai code with a small-time Italian mafioso as a lord? There are no real relationships to explore here (his best friend doesn't even speak English), and several side sequences that seem just thrown in for effect (a man building a boat on a roof with no way to get it down). The ending just seems to be necessary to terminate the movie. I never could figure out why the mafia guys wanted to hit the Ghost Dog character in the first place, or why they tried to hit his ""retainer"" and then take him back into the inner circle in the next scene. What? They changed their mind?"
30581,1,Intro to Research,"Required textbook -- while it's a fairly easy read, there are SO MANY mistakes in the book, especially in the charts and graphs. I spent hours trying to make sense of one table, asking other people to work the problems, and everyone came up with the same answer...which was different from the book. The professor worked through the problem and realized the textbook was incorrect. That was the first of many issues that were discovered over the course of the semester. If you have to have this edition (or even future editions) be careful with the numbers!"
30593,1,Not what I expected...,"Here I am thinking that I am going to settle down with another great action packed thriller...NOT!! This movie was not something that I would be interested in seeing again. I found the plot to be pretty good, but the rest of the movie as it played out was BORING!!! Cage's narration throughout the flick was annoying too!! I was just waiting for this movie to get better, but it never did. You may find yourself just sitting there bored to tears with this one, as I did!!"
30894,1,Bait and Switch,"I thought I ordered Original Bazooka as it says on the picture of the gum bucket and the title of the product in Amazon...read way down on the page in the fine print and you get the assorted flavors. I did not see that fine print. I ordered the product and in my order again it listed Original Bazooka. The package arrived and it was assorted. When I contacted Amazon, the rep looked and pointed out the fine print down below. I threw the tub away as even the original does not taste like original because the fruity flavor takes over. I was so disappointed I have not ordered anything from Amazon since---both the vendor and Amazon could have been more clear about what I was purchasing. The picture and title should match the product."
30918,1,"Terrible Battery, OK everything else",Battery quit holding a charge right after the manufacturer's warranty expired. I found the audio quality and reception to be less than average overall. I wish I had done more research before choosing a phone. Gave it two stars because it worked ok for a few months.
30928,1,Disappointing,"After reading positive review after positive review of the book, I eagerly anticipated the book's arrival in the mail. As the book was so thick and chock full of information, I knew that I would walk away with many new ideas on how to market my book. After reading the book cover to cover, I can honestly say that I walked away with very little. Perhaps it is because I have a background in marketing and already came up with some of the marketing ideas on my own (get mentioned in newspaper articles, speak in as many places as possible) or perhaps because some of the ideas were just a stretch to 1,001 (Open your own bookstore, use your book content to start a book and get AdSense money."
30935,1,This Guys In Love,"Well....it's a difference of opinion that makes horse racing. Contrary to the rave reviews this long awaited Steve Tyrell CD is receiving, to this trained ear it falls far short of his earlier works. On some of the tracks, it sounds like he's imitating his earlier self."
30958,1,WRONG PRODUCT RECOMMENDED,"This product was recommended to me to be purchase with my Hitachi camrecorder, but it doesn't fit the product. Not please at all."
31058,1,Authorial Intrusion,"The female characters were beautifully evoked and I felt engaged by them. However, the author's insistence on incorporating her personal agenda became overwhelmingly irritating and eventually threw me out of the novel."
31082,1,I love animals...,"As a person concerned and active in animal rights work, I find this sort of rant abominable.Publishing this whack-job does as much is doing as much for animal rights and women as Oliver Stone has done in ""solving"" JFK's murder.The idea that this is scholarship is an embarassment to anyone with a brain. A lot of mumbo-jumbo and bad semiotics and flimsy Deconstructionist lit-crit nonsense.It's too bad that hacks like this get encouraged. The saddest thing is, this moron probably at one time had a decent brain, a caring heart, and the best of intentions.Flipping through it is like watching the train wreck of modern education.One can only hope the reading public will put her out of her writing misery."
31084,1,EXPECTED MORE FLAVOR.,I expected more Lobster flavor from this Progresso Product and I felt the Lobster flavor was very weak and I didn't see a speck of Lobster meat in the sauce. Although the sauce was good my guests thought that they were eating regular Spaghetti sauce and were not aware that it was a Seafood Sauce. There is a need for improvement.
31149,1,Awesome!,I loved this movie! I am a huge Nicholas Cage fan! He is so cool in this movie! I could watch it over and over nonstop! Nick in a black leather jacket? OOHH LAA LAA! It is such a kickin movie! He just makes this movie happen! Nobody can watch this movie just once! It gets better and better everytime I watch it! Definately buy this one!
31183,1,Can a clone be a normal kid too?,"If you've seen Robert DeNiro inAngel Heart (Special Edition)(1987) and you've seenThe Omen (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)(1976),Damien: Omen 2(1978), you pretty much got this movie figured out.This film might make you think twice about raising a child for 18 years, especially a clone.If you don't like cruel and mean-talking children, don't watch this film.DVD includes in ""Special Features"", 4 Alternate Endings."
31212,1,Does not ring true!,Mineko Iwasaki paints herself an old soul even as a mere toddler.As a tot she was witty and wise and insightful and sensitive... almost ethereal... need I go on? (She does!)But Mineko also felt the need to constantly retreat to the closet.Something just doesn't ring true.I found her story very hard to believe. She remembers more about her life at age three than I remember about last week.As she ages she comes across as narcissistic and shallow.This reminds me of those Tiger-Beat type biographies written in the 70's and 80's about famous teen idols.The book just doesn't ring true.
31217,1,Not always what they seem,"I was disappointed by the book. I didn't get what I expected. The stories weren't bad, but how the book was organized was confusing. All the subheadings were ""when you want it and she doesn't"" ""when she wants it and you don't"". Please people get more creative. Like I said for five bucks the stories were worth it, but I would recommend completely skipping the table of contents."
31248,1,Disgusting,"Do not waste your time... The ""beef sticks"" are not good. The flavor is fake and nothing like a real beef stick. The texture will almost make you gag. You do not even need to chew these beef sticks. There is a reason why you can get this amount of volume at the price. Not worth it."
31255,1,ARTICULO NO RECIBIDO,LAS 3 CARTERAS NUNCA LLEGARON A SU DESTINO Y FUE DESCONTADO EL PAGO EN MI TARJETA DE CREDITO...FAVOR SOLUCIONAR ESTE PROBLEMA...GRACIAS
31345,1,a disapointment,I bought 2 Talking Silly Seat for my 3 and 5 year old We blew it up and by the next morning it was deflated
31355,1,I disliked this book immensely.,"I have read all of Sandra Brown's books, and have loved them all. I have been a big fan of her's for a long time. This book is nothing like her other books. I feel she is trying to change her style from Romance to a more grotesque, crude form of murder mystery. I hope her next book will be more like her other novels and not like ""Unspeakable"". This book was a great disappointment to me."
31418,1,Cracked crock,"We loved this slow cooker - almost 2 years of use, used maybe 10 times. Just took it out to use again and noticed a hairline crack right through the middle. Based on the feedback here, going to try to get the insert replacement OR just look for another crockpot. Luckily we got ours at a really good deal, so it's not that hard to give up."
31473,1,Several skits were on Vol. 1 - rip off!,"I did not like this SNL - not up to the standards set by Amy Poehler or Dana Carvey which are both a hoot! Will Ferrell IS funny just not in these particular skits and in volume 2 there are only 2 skits I thought worthy of watching. The rest are vulgar and yelling and sorry, but I just don't get the punch line. I really don't think there is one. Sometimes the other actors crack up but I couldn't figure out why - maybe something was chopped off... What a waste of money."
31495,1,Many factual errors,"I really wanted to like this book. A kind of ""Keep watching the skies"" for Horror movies of the 1970s...hey must be great, right?Well...no. I could forgive the author for his sometimes peculiar opinions, I could also forgive that some important movies only get a short paragraph dedicated to them.What I can't forgive is the unbelievable amount of factual errors in this book.No, SHOCK WAVES is NOT a 1970 release, it's from 1977. (Didn't the author look at Peter Cushing's FACE when he was watching the movie?)No, NOSFERATU THE VAMPYRE does NOT take place in Dresden. Dresden is a landlocked city! How could the vampire SAIL from Transsylaynia to Dresden? The movie takes place in Wismar at the Baltic Sea.Probably I could go on and on but so far I checked only a couple of reviews.I can't give much credibility to a reviewer's opinion if the guy so obviously doesn't know what he's talking about."
31497,1,Electronic Aqua Timer,We really like this timer. It is exactly what we were looking for. It is so easy to program and also change the program when necessary. Plus the price was right. Hope you keep this timer around for a long time for when we need another one.
31552,1,Fail,"How difficult can it be to make a plastic storage clipboard? Apparently pretty hard. The main folder meant to hold standard letter size paper pushes the paper out into the plastic clasp, crushing it when closed. The same folder also makes it more challenging to get the clipboard to close for carrying correctly. I like the compartments in the bottom, but that main folder is a deal-breaker. I paid far too much money for something that can't even perform a simple job."
31606,1,"A Strange and Interesting Life, but Not Necessarily Funny","I'd say this book was ""O.K."". I didn't find it particularly funny, but the characters portrayed are rather interesting. If the tales are true, the author has certainly had some strange and sad passages in his life. Many of the paths he travels in this book are paths I've never seen, so it was interesting to read about the odd journey."
31732,1,Don't buy if you are regular,"I have to agree with the other reviewers that say not to buy this product if you are regular. I used to ovulate regularly, but I have a short luteal cycle so I thought this product could help me. After taking Fertilaid my cycle became very irregular. I started ovulating very late in the cycle and my luteal cycle got even shorter. I took Fertilaid for 4 months and my cycles were all over the place. As soon as I stopped, my cycle went back to normal and two months after I stopped taking Fertilaid, I got pregnant, despite the fact my luteal cycle is only 8 days. So if you are regular do not buy this product. It was a big waste of my money and time."
31739,1,Ick!,This game was not very good. The songs are basically the same as the first one and game play is very hard.
31766,1,Should have previewed music,"The voice, of course, is impeccable but the music is so bad...I had anticipated jazz accompaniment for Nora but it was a blah, non- jazz group that ruined it for me. I will not listen to it. Wish l could exchange it. Will buy more of Nora but be careful with whom she is singing."
31809,1,Sims 2 Fun on PC & Mac but Not on Xbox!,"I recently bought this and thout it was going to be great!, like on the pc or mac right?! But NO it's not at all like the computer version, so I definitely feel like I did not get my moneys worth! Do not by, just wait for the Sims 3 on the console coming next year (Hopefully)!"
31824,1,Yup. I got the wrong size too.,"I love Kitchenaid mixers, but I must say that ordering accessories for them is really difficult. It is so confusing which ones go with which mixers. I am having to return a dough hook and a pouring sheild b/c they don't fit. What a pain. I see that many others have had the same problem. It's no clearer on the KitchenAid website than it is on here. Do your research!"
31863,1,Not really impressed with this item.,This product doesn't remove my comedones. I have used it several times. It does take some practice to use it correctly. It does have enough suction to pull some comedones up but not out. I tried steaming my face after showering and different products that soften them hasn't helped either. I am going to continue to use it hoping eventually it will make a difference.
31890,1,Un-Expected Result!,"I just buy that product, as I thought siemens have name in the Broadband technology, but after installing it, i get very unexpected result. I used netgear wireless card, install it very easily, but after working sometime, it stop responding. first I thought that there is problem in network card, i remove the drivers re-install it, reboot my laptop, but didnt work, i place my laptop adjacent to the siemens AP but no use. Then i reboot the AP and wow, its worked, but after some time ,it again stop responnding. the next thing i did i return it back, now looking for something else!"
31917,1,Not my favorite Ryan Gosling Movie,"The film tries to depict a real slice of life, the way it would appear to the person living it. As a result, it's boring beyond belief. There are a few redeeming scenes, but not enough to make me want to watch it again."
31921,1,"Sarah, you can do so much better","If you hoped that ""Harem"" would represent growth beyond the fantastic ""Classics"" and ""Eden"" CDs, you will be disappointed. We all know that Sarah has two voices. The little ""A Whiter Shade of Pale"" and ""Moon River"" voice and the classic voice that takes your emotions on a unique roller coaster ride. I don't like the little voice. On ""La Luna"" I accepted it as filler. With ""Harem"" there is no relief from the filler. There is no substance. I describe this CD as Yani with vocals. You may like that type of music, but with Sarah's talent you expect something more challenging.I have a friend who likes Yani, loves ABBA, and actually watched River Dance all the way through--twice. When he and his wife next visit, my ""Harem"" CD will be his."
31924,1,Horrible book,"The books by this publisher are just plain horrible They are simply advertisments from the business schools. There are few good business schools displayed in the book. It is not the least objective because schools only pay to to published in their. I called the president of the company and he confirmed this with me only the schools who pay them get published in it. You will not find good business schools like Indiana University at Bloomington, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill etc.. DO NOT BUY any books from analagous with this one ie: Best graduate business programs etc..."
32041,1,A Hungry DVD Player?,"I have two little girls who love to watch Disney/Pixar movies. After or last DVD player bit the dust, we purchased this Sony DVD player because it was reasonably priced and it had several good features.The problem is: IT EATS DISCS!At first I thought it was my fault or a fluke. Three movies later, we have a serious problem. I thought I was done with this kind of garbage when I got rid of my VCR!While a disc is playing, the movie stops/pauses after making some noise (a light clicking noise, barely noticable). After inspecting the dvd, there is now a scratch roughly as thick as a pencil eraser a quarter of the way around the disc. Just enough to ruin the entire disc.To make a long story short, SPEND YOUR MONEY ELSEWHERE!"
32047,1,Save your money: Stanley USED to make a good Thermos,"Fact: Stanley Thermos USED to make a good product.Fact: Stanley Thermos does NOT make a quality product anymore.Here is a review for you. Yesterday I did a side by side comparison of two Stanley Thermoses. One was purchased 20 years ago, and one purchased last year.The Thermoses were filled with the same coffee batch at the same time (5:00 am). At exactly 12:00 pm we opened the thermoses. The one purchased 20 years ago contained piping hot, steaming coffee. The one purchased last year contained cold, not luke warm but cold, coffee.If you would like a durable product that will last forever that is one thing. If it needs to keep a beverage hot then spend your money elsewhere. A styrofoam cup can keep a beverage hotter than a Stanley Thermos and it doesn't cost 20 bucks.There is a REAL review."
32201,1,Ill-fitting maternity swimsuit,"If you have a large chest, this swimsuit is not for you! I'm pettite and have a small frame, but my chest is large, especially with being 6 months pregnant. In the picture, this tankini looked like it would be roomy up top. The cups are extremely small and inside the top, there are these little pads which I'm assuming are to hide your nipples. Well, you can see the outline of them once you have the top on. I would not recommend this tankini to anyone who has a cup size of C or more. When I went to return the swimsuit, I found out that Belly Basics does not accept returns on sale items, hoisery, or swimwear. I was not aware of this return policy when I ordered the suit, and I can't find anywhere on the web page where this policy is stated. I contacted Belly Basics through email, however, and they did allow me to return the suit."
32272,1,I've seen 6 year olds make high quality videos,"Let's ignore the fact that for some reason there is no Blu-ray available. The video and audio quality on this DVD rivals a VHS tape from 1980 that's been watched about 500 times. If these are the actual network broadcasts, then they must have been recorded with someone's cell phone while standing in front of the TV. I can't believe this is official NFL merchandise. Save yourself some money and go watch video highlights of these games for free on Youtube. You'll be much more impressed at the production value."
32285,1,Disappointed,"What Star Wars fan wouldn't want a Jango Blaster? It looks like a great toy, but it is actually quite poorly constructed. It has a lot of glue visibly holding it together. We had it out of the package less than 5 minutes and it broke in 3 different places! Also the screws on the battery compartment are almost impossible to remove. It does make cool, electronic gun sounds though (on the one that we could open to get the batteries in)."
32288,1,Don't buy this toy.,"Our Jengo Fett Blasters and Holster arrived today. Within five minutes of getting it out of the package, the holsters came unglued. One of the blasters doesn't work - when screwed in, it blasts continuously instead of with a trigger pull. How disappointing!"
32301,1,MOSTLY BORING and UNFINISHED,"I think the director was asleep at the switch. Some of the dialogue was very well done and the acting was very good by all players but the assorted scenes and settings were simply mashed together without a connecting thread. You get your standard riots and panic in the streets scenes, but I imagine most B-movie horror flicks have done that chore much better. To top it off, two of the major stars are killed-off almost immediately, one of them muddles his way through scene after scene without much at all to do and a fourth major star simply disappears (poof!) in the middle after portraying a very forceful and central role! Loose threads abound at the so-called ending. The only real satisfaction I got from my otherwise wasted 90 minutes was seeing Marion Cotillard and perhaps 1 minute or so of the other major stars."
32316,1,Leaks - bad design,"This product does not work right. It leaks, because it uses an o-ring instead of a gasket, where a gasket is needed. If you want to use the product be sure to correct this before you install it!"
32351,1,not great yoga workout,Not enough power to increase heart rate for a cardio / weight loss workout and a poses were not held long enough to increase strength.
32432,1,Just a toy,"I think the fisher price doctor kit works better and lasted longer. It won't even stay together and you can't hear a heartbeat. It will work to amplify voice if you talk into it, so my three year old uses it for that."
32449,1,Poor quality.,Paper peeling off. Looks better in the photo that it does when it arrives. Not durable at all. I returned it.
32491,1,"For me, a lot of wasted pages","Of the 400+ pages only 190 of them are of any use to me. I use a crockpot because it is simple and tasty cooking. So, I was expecting alot of main dish recipies. And I was also expecting them all to be for the crockpot. There is over 60 pages of recipes that do not use the crockpot. There is over 125 pages dedicated to beverages, soups, breads, and desserts. I have never met anyone who has made hot chocolate or apple bread in a crockpot. Of the 190 pages of worth. only 25 pages were the type of recipies that I was looking for. ie. the chop-it up and throw it in the pot type. everything else involved browning or braising or some other type of stove technique. I guess I'm just the kind of cook who doesn't want to screw around with browning anything. I bought this specifically because of the reviews on amazon. Hopefully this review will speak to those of you like me that are not chefs and are just looking for something easy and tasty to cook."
32504,1,embarrassingly trite,"A completely suspect read, this book's unqualified criticism becomes all the more clear when viewed in tandem with Miss Brodie's manufactured bio on Thomas Jefferson (""Thomas Jefferson: An Intimate History"").For a critical rereading of this book, see ""Tinkling Cymbal and Sounding Brass,"" an excellent deconstruction by Hugh Nibley of Miss Brodie's methodology."
32510,1,You get what you pay for,"The old rule of thumb holds true for this trimmer. It's on the inexpensive side, and deservedly so. The rotary blade mechanism is mounted on a plastic bar that is not held firmly in place, therefore causing varying results.The value you find in this item depends on what you want to do with it. If you want something that cuts things for arts and crafts, and you are not finicky about how straight it is, then this item is for you.If you want to cut photo prints or artwork and require a true straight edge, you will be very disappointed with this item. I also own a Fiskars product which works much better for photos. Dahle makes nice trimmers as well. Both have securely mounted metal bars that the rotary mechanism is mounted to and therefore are much more accurate."
32542,1,Written by two non-appraisers,"Upon seeing this item listed for sale, I became curious as to the background of the authors. As it turn out neither one of them is a licensed real estate appraiser. There has been a lot of hype around the appraisal profession lately with Money listing it as one of the top careers. While I appreciate the attention my profession is receiving, many of these books and articles give people an irresponsible expectation of what it is like getting into the industry. I question how useful a book on how to become a real estate appraiser, written by two people who have never undertaken that career choice, will be. Buy and use with caution."
32584,1,Hair erupts from my nose like lava from Mt Vesuvius...,"...and I have the pain threshold of the princess from the princess and the pea story, these devices should be designed with me in mind.When brand new this thing worked like gangbusters, however the razor sharp blades dulled quickly leaving me crying like a baby.Perhaps if the hair that sprouts from your nose is fine this tool will suffice, I'm still searching for the groomer that will be gentle to me yet viciously mow down stray hairs."
32591,1,worked great...at first,I had this for about 5 weeks working fine before i moved. After i moved the cable no longer works and thus i hate it.
32593,1,Don't Waste Your Time or Money,"You will read other reviews saying that the coffee maker would dump coffee all over the counters. I read them too thinking as another reviewer that it couldn't be that bad. Well it was. After six months of battling this beast, we finally put it to rest along with a $140 investment. Don't waste your time or money on this one. I wish that we had not."
32642,1,"Sharp metal pieces, not really fiesta 'Plum' in color...","I received this flatware set today and opened it to find it matched my fiesta heather plates perfectly, but was not dark like fiesta plum dishes are. There were also some sharp metal edges peaking out from the end caps near the base of a spoon and a fork. I have 5 other colors of this type of flatware that match the stated color perfectly - so I will try another order in case these ones were just marked wrong. If they arrive without the sharp edges, I'll live with the shade problem if it's still apparent."
32676,1,Broken,"I used it once & went to close it & it fell apart. the screws(?) were made of plastic & one fell out broken & I tried to put it back holding it together & the otheer fell out, also broken. Package had been open when we received it, but my husband gave it to me anyway. B & D are usually good products."
32689,1,Unstable and high burn danger,This would have been a good product but the reversible plates are poorly secured and the rear hinge cannot be locked into either position causing it to be very unstable. Every metal surface becomes extremely hot and is a high burn danger. It makes great waffles--but how badly do you want a waffle?
32744,1,Not a very good rabbit book,"i read through this book, and it not the most informative, nor best one out there. The information provided seems to be biased against breeders, and more pro rescue then anything else. Not that ther eis anything wrong with rescue. Its just that book is not balanced when it comes to aquiring and caring for rabbits. If you would like to read a good rabbit book that is up to date on good rabbit information go buy the ARBA guidebook to raising better rabbits and cavies. At least that one supports all aspects fo the rabbit industry, including breeding, showing, proper diet(pellets not lots of veggies) livestock, and keepng them as house pets."
32768,1,Politicians Partisans and Parasites,"I am a conservative and I just didnt like this book very much. The best part was the dirt on James Carvile, that was funny. Over all this was just a boring book."
32771,1,So unfunny,"Chris Rock, who is a noted racist, couldn't possibly less funny than he was in this film. This movie is utterly horrible and I have no idea how it ever got made. The jokes are bad and the racism exhibited by Rock in this film is disturbing."
33190,1,What A Dog!!,I rated Places 5 stars. This album was terrible. I could not believe the difference between Places and Lifetime. Be sure you listen to the sample songs before buying this album.
33230,1,Seconded: Nice clock but loud,"This is a good-looking, easily readable wall clock. At night, when all is still, this clock can definitely be heard ticking (actually, more of a ""tock""). The clock is in our bathroom, but, in the contemporary style, our bathroom is off the Master Bedroom without a door. The tocking can be heard 40' away in bed. Previous atomic clocks which I have owned of other manufacturers have not ticked at all.I haven't had this clock long enough to know whether or not it will automatically change for Daylight Savings but the instructions say that it will.I've downgraded it because the ticking is really annoying. It did change from daylight savings to standard time as advertised.I would not buy it if I could do it over again."
33263,1,Product will die within a year or so,"I have owned two of this company's (iGo) chargers and both have died within about a year. Specifically, the charger will simply stop charging. When plugged in the blue light on the charger will come on and then immediately fade. The company was great about honoring the two-year warranty on the first charger, but the replacement died a year later. Unfortunately their warrant is from the date of the initial purchase, so if the replacement dies and the two years from initial purchase have passed you are out of luck. I don't know about you, but that simply doesn't sit well with me. If you warranty your product for two years, then the clock should start again when the product is replaced.Seriously consider purchasing a universal charger manufactured by a different company."
33396,1,Lost in his writing,"Mr. Bryson's writing which sparkled when he wrote about his travels in England, seems flat in this sad story about his attempts to discover America. Perhaps the flatness mirrors the flatness of his home state of Iowa, but for whatever reason it's more of a sad commentary on the isolation and fragmentation of society. Bryson is a humorist first and travel writer second, and when the liveliness fails hims, there is little left. Putting this book down was not hard. I had expected more."
33456,1,Fallen... Down Into The Mire.,"How to describe this C.D... First, we start with derivative ""Linkin Park""-style background music. Then, we add a semi-talented female lead singer, who Tarja from Nightwish could blow out of the water easily. (Amy Lee isn't bad: she just needs to learn more vocal range, because her voice varies little from song to song.) We also add a good smidgen of faux-angsty vocals which get real annoying, REAL fast. All those ingredients combine into a product that is, ultimately, quite mediocre, and really not worth your money or time."
33473,1,A film school drop out special,"This is the results of a good script, bad director and only one or two good actors. The only good acting done in this film were by the actors portraying crazy. The two leads, well she did well he needs a lot more lessons and some good critique before he's allowed to do anything in front of a camera again.And why was the director useing such childish and out of date camera methods? Is he a throwback to the seventies?!I want my money and 2 hours of my life back."
33495,1,I can't believe they left out the BEST line!!,"Great movie, but one of the BEST lines from the theatre and VHS version of Last of the Mohicans is: ""Do not try to understand them and do not make them understand you for they are a breed apart and do not make sense."" We got the director's cut DVD and although it has the great ""big message"" ending, it is missing the above line (and from what I understand, also others).In summary, video quality was good for us but the scenes are jumpy and the audio pretty bad.DVD version not worth the purchase. Stick with the VHS version"
33513,1,WAY smaller than expected,"VERY small item. Much smaller than other ""small"" sized Kong products I have purchased. My dogs are 12 and 14 pounds and I consider it a choking hazard. Save your money."
33554,1,Factory problem?,I bought this brand new and sealed but three of the discs are clearly sub-standard with scratches and fingerprints; how can that happen? The result is that 5-6 shows are unwatchable.
33573,1,Bad Back Booster,"Having a bad back, I was looking for anything that would help the pain. I watched the infomercial and was impressed with the product. I ordered the item and it was received with great expectations. It took very little effort to inflate and I was ready to use it. It stayed inflated for about two to three hours but gradually lost its firmness as it began to deflate. It obviously had a leak. Contacted Amazon and they authorized a return.Have since pruchased another product (considerably more expensive) made from memory foam and it it's super."
33586,1,Don't waste your $$$,"HOUR OF REDEMPTION by Forrest Bryant Johnson is a thousand times the book that Breuer's is. Don't waste your $$$ on this one. Johnson wrote the original and it is the gold standard for the Cabanatuan raid (even far better than Sides' GHOST SOLDIERS).If you are interested in this subject, buy Johnson's book instead. It has been re-released and is available at the major bookstores as well as at Amazon.com. Johnson's HOUR OF REDEMPTION is the best WW II book I have read, bar none. I would highly recommend it to anyone, not just military buffs."
33660,1,It crashs,"Got it as agift from MS, It crashed 3 times in one hour. Just saw CNET review.(they said it crashed 4 times in 3 hour) Please remember it's from MS. Some improvments, not enough. If you are a MS fan, it's a better buy than CE. I will not buy it myself."
33700,1,Looks nice but that's about it,"This is not a good teakettle if you need one to use every morning. The inside of the lid on mine started rusting within two days. The lid is also very difficult to put in, causing the paint to chip off into the water, and then causing more rusting. Unless you want to use it for decoration, do not get this one."
33739,1,seriously what book were the 5star reviewers reading?,"Alright, first of the book was slow, I kept getting a feeling of deja vu, but it's because the book was repeating itself. Kisa started out so ""hard"" and such an independent hustler. But she turned into a whiny ok. The grammar and lingo was ridiculous I understand ""hood"" but it was serious overload. Typos galore. And nothing but a bunch of shopping and designer name dropping. I know everything the characters wore, but nothing much about them at all. And if they were so successful and worth over 20 mil, running 5 legal businesses between the two of them (kisa and Sincere) why in the he** were they still hustling dope? And after getting busted why would opt to go back to doing it for two more years? And mind you I only read the first 4 chapters. I can't read this. I don't recommend it at all. Save your money please."
33836,1,Incomplete Movie!!!,The disc only contained half the movie and kicked back to the menu after scene 23 (Where Mozart conducts the opera he wrote for his deceased father). I tried to select the scene where it cut out and that's all that's on the disc. What a jip!!!! I want my money back.
33857,1,"The kind of book that gives ""New Age"" a bad name","Pint-sized and poorly written, this guide would be a great gift for someone you dislike. After all, you're just trying to say, ""Get outta here!"" right?Besides the numbingly dull text, the author sucks the lifeblood out of travel saying it's the interior journey that counts.This is the kind of book that gives ""New Age"" a bad name."
33967,1,Dissapointing,"I really WISH that when they make a movie from a book, they would follow the freakin' storyline! ""Sound of Thunder"" is a short story (about 30 pages I recall) by Ray Bradbury, I read it in high school a long time ago. You will not understand the title until the very last sentence - a classic Bradbury quirk. This movie is so loosly related to the original story it hardly deserves the title. Bradbury wrote this in the 1960's, about the time when the first theories and ideas about chaos theory and the ""butterfly effect"" were first being put forth. What really SUCKS is that this COULD have been an excellent movie! But it was mediocre at best. Acting, plot, special FX, everything could have been better. I will simply shelve it now along with my small but growing collection of other movies in this fascinating area, 3 total now, the other 2 being ""Butterfly Effect"" and ""Frequency"", both of which were very well done."
34016,1,Warning - read product details and go for the upgraded model!,"I ordered this as a gift for my daughter, thinking it was like the one I have had for 10 years. I didn't realize that the bowl does not have a handle, plus the low wattage leaves a lot to be desired for mixing basic things like thick cookie dough. With the handled bowl being so expensive as a separate order item, - and you WILL want the handle -it's worth it to just get the 450 watt model with the handled bowl and pouring shield."
34021,1,Atlas is better for me,I have a 350 watt machine thats about 12 years old and it could not even pull the dough to knead it (of course it can't even pull a double batch of cookie dough). The machine stopped on me. I make homemade pasta often and ended up finishing the dough it by hand. Then tried to put the dough through the pasta maker and it stuck together. It couldn't handle the dough any stiffer because it would stop on me. Ended up getting my Atlas out and finished up the pasta as usual. My Mother has a 525 watt Pro series machine thats 2 years old and it pulled it with no problem.
34038,1,Wrong pouring shield,"I received a incorrect Pouring Shield, KitchenAid #KPS@CL, than what I needed for my wife's KitchenAid stand mixer Model #KV25GOX. Amazon lists the shield as fitting a KitchenAid 5qt stand mixer. KitchenAid makes a lot of 5qt stand mixers and not anywhere does Amazon.com ask or have a place requesting what your model is so that the correct item can be shipped.The item I received was purchased through Amazon.com but sent from Polsteins Home & Beyond and my request for imfomation to return item have been through Amazon.com's forwarded email system which I have sent 2 request and have heard nothing.I wouldn't order this item through Amazon.com again."
34095,1,I can't stand it no more!,"I feel awful for Jamie! In book three, I was upset that Jamie married someone else and had a son with another woman but now that I read book 4, I'm not sure how I feel anymore. Claire and her daughter, Bree, don't deserve Jamie. I don't think they do anymore. How could Bree do that to herself over a stupid ring that belonged to her mother and just because it belong to Frank, her step Father. It's just gross! And Claire, she keeps thinking about Frank, still. She even loves him! How could she even question whether Jamie loved Geneva (his son's mother)or not when she herself loves another man, too. It's just all wrong and twisted! My heart can't stand it anymore! I feel bad for Jamie. He can never truly be a father to his kids. How could you, Diana, do this to Jamie?!!! Jamie, whom we all love so much!! I can't do this no more... I can't continue reading anymore."
34154,1,Bad Mounting Setup,The little metal piece this uses to stay on the fast track doesn't stay in and mine got lost after it fell out. Now the whole thing is useless. I don't understand why it was designed so poorly.
34166,1,One of the worst Video games ever created on a console,"Two words can describe this garbage.....it sucks..I won't even go to detail all I will say is not only is the gameplay glitched up and horrible to do especially how to controll drake, but the story is just plain stupid. Gamer no how doesn't know what he's talking aboutGameplay is just plain awfulMusic...............I'm not even gonna go thereThe controls is just plain awfulI have to give it a 1 out of 5...Hell I wish I could give it -5 stars but I can'tWHAT EVER YOU DO DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!!!"
34171,1,not worth the hassle,This program takes several steps to do something that should only take one. It's cumbersome and illogical. eClass Grades is much easier to use.
34256,1,Give Me A Cyber-Break!,"Tom Clancy's name is splattered all over the cover of the sixth in the Net Force series. If his only motivation is to let the publisher use his name for the money, I hope he's getting very little. This book is, in a word, terrible.Speculative, science, and techno-thriller fiction are some of my favorite books; this book isn't convincing on any front. Sure, language has changed with the advent of the Web, but the egregious overuse of made-up jargon, describing concepts that are probably not close-in enough to spawn the casual, nickname-ish use prevalent in this book's narrative.Gratuitous jargon, gratuitous sex, and labored narrative just don't cut it. I pity the poor guy that picks this thing up in an airport newsstand and gets stuck with it for hours."
34286,1,Abominable Snowman movie?????,"Wow, I actually paid money for this! If I have ever purchased a movie and complained about it then this one takes the number one slot! Keep your money in your pocket."
34301,1,Cheap and CHEAP!,"I thought this would be a fun (and annoying) gadget to have a softball games. Unfortunately you can't understand a word being said. Sure it has 10 different sounds but each is just a different mumbled pitch. I'm not even sure if a child would enjoy this for more than 5 minutes. Save your money, or better yet donate it to your favorite cause. This product is just a waste."
34305,1,Would not buy again,"This toy is cheaply constructed and the voice change capacity is minimal, and the voice quality is terrible. It held my 6 year old niece's attention for less than one minute."
34307,1,Poor Quality,"I think I wasted my money on this. Every setting sounds the same, which is not much differnt than your real voice."
34333,1,HIM is not good music,"Bam is a great skater, but his taste in bands is truly horrendous. There is nothing remotely enjoyable about this Finnish goth metal band."
34360,1,"No Good, Just Buy Brain Age","I bought this game after falling in love with Sudoku through Brain Age. However, after playing a few of the maps, dealing with the annoying music and cumbersome interface, I gave up.If you haven't played Brain Age Sudoku, then maybe you won't have the same problems I did. If you have played Brain Age and are looking for more Sudoku, don't buy this game. Go buy a book or play on a website. This game will just frustrate you.The system for adding in numbers has way too many steps to it. You have to tap a number pad to add in a number, instead of just writing the number into the pad. If you use the ""helper"" numbers, you have to select which of the four sections of a box you want to add the helper number to, then tap the number pad you want to add and then tap the full box button to get back to adding in the actual number. It's too cumbersome of a system."
34434,1,Weak and Incomplete,"""The Newhall Incident"" interested me because the crime occurred in my hometown and I personally witnessed the police action in attempting to capture one of the perpetrators. But the book read too much like fiction in that the author constantly expressed thoughts and ideas on behalf of the people involved in the incident. Since those people lost their lives that day, we can never know what they were really thinking. The book would have been more valuable if the author had stuck to the facts. He also went way overboard on the use of profanity which made for difficult reading and detracted from his attempt to draw a psychological profile of the perpetrators."
34622,1,Not the comfort I was expecting,"I really don't understand why everyone is so positive on these headphones. I own several headsets, from cheap lightweight Radio Shack specials to full-on AKG open-ear headphones I use for doing home studio work. These are one of the most uncomfortable sets of headphones I've ever encountered. They don't conform to the head well at all. They're pretty heavy for their size, and the pressure on the outer edges of the ear is very uncomfortable. If you wear glasses, they will press your ears uncomfortably against them.Sound quality is average. Nothing like my AKGs.I'm surprise, really. Maybe Sennheiser doesn't make the same quality as they used to."
34637,1,"Same old, same old","Nicolas Cage is such a talented actor (Leaving Las Vegas being his best work to date), and he is totally underutilized in trite movies like this one. This was merely a class B film. There was nothing new about the plot: the conspiracy theory, the corrupt cop, the damsel in distress... Cage does a decent job, but the movie did not help him show his talents."
34641,1,Don't last long,"I have owned two sets of these headphones. The first one started shorting out. If I put pressure on the wire coming out, they would work. Eventually even this didn't work and they quit for good. I got another set because they were pretty much the only ones available at the store, and because I thought it might have been an isolated incident. Well, as of today, the second set is going out in the very same way. The left ear doesn't wok unless you apply pressure to the wire. I will never buy another set of Logitech headphones. Both lasted approximately 6 months. Now I am in search of a good set of gaming phones."
34660,1,DOA,"mine was broken and out of its package when i got it, im going to order a different one, mabey it was just that one time"
34697,1,"Great for Learning, but Not Durable","This is a nice learning toy for children, but we had trouble with ours breaking. My 4-year-old son, who generally isn't hard on toys managed to break the clock within a couple months. The hands didn't match up with the time display. I took the clock apart and managed to fix it but it was not easy to fix. About a year later, he broke it again. I remembered how difficult it was to fix so the clock is in the garbage. I'm very sad about this because my son who is now 5, could still learn from this clock. He's just learning to count my 5s and up to this point only knows the 0'clocks, 30s, quarter-afters, and quarter-tos."
34765,1,"""The Big Bopper"" isn't as big as the titles claim!","My two most-desired titles on this album were ""Chantilly Lace"" and ""Little Red Riding Hood"". I was(am) extremely disappointed that ""Little Red..."" was missing, though listed."
34773,1,Disappointing....,"I have read many, many books on pet bereavement and loss and I have to say that I'm a little disappointed with Mr. Sife's book. It reads like a monotonous textbook and lacks feeling. I've read other pet bereavement books where warmth and understanding are felt, right from page one, but this book is not like that. There are other pet bereavement books out there that are much more helpful."
34800,1,"Nice suite, but Virtual PC 7 disappoints on my G5","I purchased the upgrade since I'd already bought both Office v.X and Virtual PC 6.1 last year.The biggest letdown is that Microsoft's promised support for the G5 is nearly non-existent. I have a dual processor G5 with an ATI Radeon 9800 card (Apple), and after trying to install Virtual PC 7 three times, I cannot get a VM to work. It did install (and work) flawlessly on my G4 Powerbook. Googling for reviews finds it's very hit or miss, but if (when) it misses, you'll regret investing the extra $$$ in an immature product."
34813,1,Pure Garbage,"This album is a big F U to all the people that bought his previous CD. There are one or two songs that can be used as bait and switch material. But the of the album is basically 'ha ha sucker I got your money'. JM has a terrible voice, and that is all that is left if he doesn't play his guitar and the songs suck. I can't tell you how much I hate this album. His last album must have been a fluke.You've been warned. I give this CD one out of five stars."
34820,1,This Totally SucKz,"I am a small John Mayers fan myself but this cd was total garbage. I mean, in this cd Mayer's voice is so wimpy and the guitar playing was anything but talented. Then there were the lyrics. I mean c'mon can't you and your productin company think of something more creative. If I was able to I would probably give this cd 0 stars. If you ever thought of buying this cd, don't waste your money on it."
34828,1,Not enough Skynyrd,"I'd just like to say that there just aint enough Skynyrd on this compilation. I do like The Allman Brothers Band but one song from the Skynyrd, the greatest southern rock band of all time come on. And why is it that on all these ""southern rock"" or ""classic rock"" compilations for Skynyrd they always put in songs like Sweet Home Alabama or Free Bird? I love those songs (especially Free Bird) but they're getting played out and that does no good for the band. They should put songs like The Needle and the Spoon on there."
34830,1,"Ok, not great","This is a very factual account of Eric Liddell's life, but there are better accounts out there. A bit dry to follow."
34893,1,Smaller than Amazon website says it is,"The actual dimensions inside and outside are smaller than the Amazon website lists it. I wanted a bigger one, so returned the Oster back."
34923,1,CCR at their worst,While John Fogerty was at the helm CCR sold record after record. They were at the top. That wasn't good enough for brother Tom who quits the band. Other members Doug Clifford and Stu Cook were busy yelling I can sing I can write songs. John gave in and said do it and more or less walked away from what he knew would be a disaster. And it was. Others that follow a genius might find they are better off in doing so. I gave this a big thumbs down when it first came out and still do.
34936,1,One large flaw in the design,"I really like the Peltor hearing protectors and they work great. They fit better than some other brand that I have. However the one bad drawback to the design is that the batteries are very difficult to get into. One must pry off the ear pad then replace the batteries underneat. I cannot do it with my fingers alone because the flange nearly cuts into my skin. I must use a screw driver. Surely there is a better design. I hate this about them. If one has arthritis, you can't do it. I have lost some muscle strength after taking statins for cholesterol and I cannot do it with my fingers."
35040,1,Sounds like a school orchestra.,"I'm lucky, i paid 1$ for this CD in a 1 dollar store. It's bizarre to hear cheap synthetisers and conventional battery in an album with Orchestra in the title."
35060,1,Why no DTS soundtrack?,"What is going on with UNIVERSAL PICS. Because of all of the extra junk that they put on this dvd they have no room left for the DTS soundtrack. Sad So SAD!!! They are doing this to all of their movies recently, STOP IT!!!"
35132,1,The Last Laugh,"To be honest I must admit that I had more fun reading the reveiws than I did watching the video-it's worse than a home movie - but for any true Kaufman officianado, it's a must have. Truly a video to be ""experienced"". First I was dissapointed, then I was angry, by the end I was resigned (to having been duped out of 13 bucks)and now I'm genuinely amused. Andy was the ultimate at putting us on and taking risks so purchase this video AT YOUR OWN RISK (and let the buyer beware:)"
35140,1,ANNOYING,"Whats wrong with people these days? My humps is probably the worst peice of s*** i've ever herd. When I bought Monkey Buisness I was hoping for something like Elephunk, at least that s*** was good. All my humps is talking about is a slut trying have sex. It's annoying! I cant stand this song anymore! Almost all the people at my school are singing this or playing it on itunes when the teachers gone. This song is way to overplayed and now sounds almost retarded. If you want a good song from them get Dont Phunk with my heart or lets get it started. And, if you want real rap get Method Man or Xzibit, thats real gangster s***! Later"
35219,1,Very Poor Quality,I purchased this item based on other customer reviews and was extremely disappointed. The quality is very poor. One of the hinges was actually already broken when I opened the box. I wouldn't have given it even 1 star but you're forced to do so to submit a review.
35273,1,"Too basic, too much irrelevant material","There are some useful nuggets in this book, but there is also a lot of material that doesn't directly relate to processing XML. The author spends an inordinate amount of space discussing things like AWK, filename globbing on Windows, installing software, and other irrelevant items. The software tools used as examples in the book were written for earlier versions of Python and the Python XML libraries; they do not work with the current releases of Python and PyXML, and no updates are available on the author's web site."
35289,1,Sucks.,"After DIO Sabbath with ozzy singing is crap, he can't do it anymore. To think this was uspposed to be his final show and it wasen't that great. Zack Wylde ruins all the classics with his ""ehhhh"" twang instead of playing the damn songs. I hate his playing. Over all not worth the price."
35291,1,Terrible DVD!,"I LOVE Ozzy Osbourne.He is awesome live.He has one of the best stage presences in metal.But this DVD is not a real concert.What this is the music from the Live and Loud CD played in the background played over a bunch of crappy video footage.Half of it doesn't even belong here.The music is great,but the video footage is what messes this up.If you want a real Ozzy concert,buy ""Live At Budokan"".If you want to get the REAL concert this was taken from,buy the CD.Also,The DVD does NOT have instant chapter access like the case says so.Plus,the DVD is two sided.This means that you have to flip it over in the middle of the concert."
35329,1,Doesn't stay on when started,We have only had this coffee maker for 3 months and it doesn't work. It turns off after only a few seconds and you have to repeatedly push the on button until the pot is full!
35384,1,just ok,"Diana Krall has always been a Artist that I respected Her talent,but I never quite got the full buzz over,but over her past two albums I'm really lost now,because Her voice doesn't work well in a bigger band enviroment. She is better suited in a smaller unit that allows her instrument of voice to be heard&given that feel she is known for doing in her material. there is way too much going on in the overall sounds&they don't blend with her vocally enough. She doesn't have enough in her Chops to keep up with what she is trying to pull off here. I applaud the effort,but she has to get back to what best compliments her stylings."
35388,1,Neuro waste of time,"THis video should not even be on amazon, its a waste of time, the guy hardly knows what he is talking about, he is only speaking to 3 people and has no structure. If you are looking for NLP this is NOT IT, stay away"
35484,1,Broke after one use,"This is actually the third time I've ordered this product, because the first two only lasted a year each. Unfortunately, this last one seems to be be even worse than my other two. The second time I went to open it up to reload it, the center controller broke into two pieces. All the screws came out and didn't work right even after I tried to fix it. The convenience of the product is great - assuming it works - but it's a worry that they're made so cheaply that I can't even open it up twice without it breaking."
35529,1,Pleasant Enough,"I seem not to be the only one to have bought this via the Brad Mehldau route. Strange connection. This is pleasant enough but no way as intelligent and 'layered' as the jazz sound I was hoping for. Anyone who adored Vini Reilly in the early 80s should pounce on this as a retro novelty. Some tracks hit the nail others 'When I fall in Love' are woeful. A very very hollow sound. As a Brad companion-piece Mark Turner is much more in keeping. Still, Frisell adds to the musical education process."
35556,1,didn't care for it,"moved too slowly, not enough action, my grandson didn't stay interested in it. He liked Home Alone 3 much more."
35568,1,This book is boring.,"The ox-bow incient is probbly the worst book i've read. It is not exciting, and they don't tell the main character's name untill halfway through the book! This book also has too many insults and bad words and is racist to African Americans. To sum it up, if you like exciting books, don't read this one!"
35574,1,Pretty Boring!,"I read ""The Hostage"" first and thoroughly enjoyed it. From that positive experience, I decided that I should check out W.E.B. Griffin's books further. I just finished ""The Hunters"" and it was pretty boring and long winded. There was no action to be found and the whole book revolved around Castillo's crew running all around the world doing nothing. I'm not sure if I'll read any other W.E.B. Griffin books."
35644,1,Fiddle-de-dee,"This is the first and last book I will read by Ms. Coffman. What can I say, the writing was choppy (there was no flow whatsoever), the characters were underdeveloped and I kept waiting for Maresa to exlaim ""Fiddle-de-dee"" (Note: in no way, shape or form did this book compare with Gone with the Wind, though!) And not to spoil the ending for those who want to read the book regardless of this review, IT IS VERY ANTI-CLIMATIC and not worth wading through the endless pages of the book to find out, of course, that the hero and heroine end up together."
35754,1,"Rush engineering, cheap sound, bad mic.","Mine does have the button, but the mic/button is more than 2 feet from the earphone. This means the mic is right around my belt buckle. Do you talk out of your belly button? Cause I don't.Sound is blah, about the same as the apple earbuds."
35755,1,AVOID,"I purchased the Brand New product.Avoid like a plague.If you are planning to listen to music(duh) on these and not just answer the phone then _do not buy these_The earphones have the bass(base) response of a flying mosquito.I made the mistake of buying these because they are only affordable phones+microfone for iPhone.Pros.*Expectable _phone_only_ audio/microphone response.*The cable (coat, cover) material is interesting, looks and feels like a fabric which is great, because unlike rubber (on my Sony earbuds) it just glides on your skin and clothes, instead of latching itself to it. This is an unexpected and pleasant plus.Cons.*horrible bass(base) response.*overall the earphones feel like they play saturate at 500Hz and below.I have swapped the $29 Sony phones during play and the difference was clearly detectable."
35795,1,Terrible,"This is one of the worst cd's i've bought in a long time. There are two good songs on the whole cd, All Downhill From here and I don't wanna know, every other song is mediocre and unispired. Most of the songs are depressing which is stupid. If I wanted to listen to some guys whine about their troubles in life I'd go pick up a Staind cd or something thats supposed to be depressing. This cd makes me depressed and may cause me to lose all faith in rock music. I'm extremely dissapointed. This cd is trash."
35813,1,"Interesting, could be better","The film, The Omega Man seems to have a very good plot and and could be a much better film then originally anticipated. Charlton Heston puts on a fairly good role as the military scientist that fines the vaccine to the ultimate biological weapon which wipes out the entire world. The Family, a group of slowly decaying survivors try to destroy Neville ( Charlton's character) and to abolish the old ways of life and return to the older "" holy"" way of thinking, thus wiping out mankind's age of the wheel forever. All in all not an entirely bad action-science fiction film, although it is plauged with some mind-bogglingly cheesy lines and awkward action scenes with members of the family dressed up in white make-up, start throwing themselves out windows and chasing Charlton while he is on a motorcycle. The film is alright, but it could be much better."
35820,1,Not very educational,"I bought this software after reading the reviews. Yes, this game is fun and my sons love to play it. But, that is all it is. Mostly they are just games. We have many other software titles where the children are always learning when they are playing. My children want to play this game. However, I want my children to use the computer as a learning tool, not a gameboy."
35856,1,Not recommended,"Although the novel starts sort of promising, it soon collapses into a long, boring and quite predictable story.If the text was trimmed to half of its actual size, then maybe it would have been an average book.But it is not.There are much better books out there to spend your time on. So don't waste it with ""Picture Perfect""."
35861,1,Spanish Now 8.0,"I planned to brush up on the Spanish I had not used in 10 years. From the description, this seemed like the proper package. From the time I opened the box I was lost. There are no loading instructions, workbook or guide as to how to use the software. I had to call the manufacturer's 800 number to load it. After that I still had no idea where to start since there were dozens of icons to press. I pressed a few. A video of a conversation appeared. I wasn't sure it it was lesson one or lesson 100. It may be a wonderful program, but I returned it because I had no concept of where to start."
35887,1,thank god for downloading,"I only liked cherry pie and whatever you want to do. The musical production is killer because she worked with some of the most talented songwriters out there right now. Too bad she has no musical talent at all and can't sing worth a penny. I downloaded those two songs and that's it, I aint buying this crap"
36173,1,A step up from Country Grammar,"First off, I AM NOT A NELLY FAN! I do not think he can rhyme, nor does he rhyme over good beats. He is P. Diddy and Ja Rule with an accent. This is much better than his first album, but that was horrible as well. Nelly said something in his song #1; is there a such thing as real hip hop? No. Is there a such thing as good music? Yes, and this doesn't qualify as either. Buyer beware."
36183,1,whazzzz up boyzzzzzz,"someone needs to take the sock off his head and act like he has some sense! Sounds the same as everything else out on the radio these days, too much pop, too much like every other artist. Long live ICP!"
36246,1,"Very poor, wrong films wrong dates, bad collection.",I was expecting better when I ordered this. It is totally unacceptable as a film history of the forties--it's like someone dipped into a barrel of fims--or academy award winners--and made a list. There are so many fine films of outstanding merit missing in this collection I dumped my new copy into the junk bin
36252,1,The Basset Hound Owner's Survival Guide,"For the soon to be basset owner, this book is pointless. I have experience with bassets and was able to enjoy the anecdotes, but the anecdotes are the problem. The book is overflowing with little vignettes and not much else. There are other owner guides to the basset hound that address in detail important issues like feeding, health and grooming without the endless accompanying tales. I was extremely disappointed and wouldn't recommend it for a novice basset owner. it just doesn't cover the hard facts it needs to."
36286,1,"Too hard to use, easily unthreads/gets stuck, instructions not clear","This machine is a nightmare, it is hard to use for my mother who is an experienced sewer and has been sewing since her 20's and sews very often. The machine is lacking in many simple thing such as the fact that the thread guide in step 4 doesn't stick out of the covering and so you have a hard time threading it, the needle threader instructions aren't clear and we still haven't figuredout how to use it, and the presser foot is just simply slid on rather than screwed tightly and so it often falls off if you move your hand over it while trying to thread the needle. This is so cheaply made and not at all user-friendly. It's a waste of $100. At least if you buy it at a proper store, you can try it out and have someone show you how to use it before you buy, by ordering online, you don't know what your getting nor have anyone to show you how to use it."
36299,1,Very poor ROI,"I'll make this short and sweet. We bought the 305T 30"" Samsung display as a good value (or so we thought). It lasted just over 4 years and is no longer repairable by a Samsung service center. At our company we have not yet had a LCD completely fail like this. It flickers badly. Others apparently had the same experience so we will not continue with Samsungs products. What a waste of $1200."
36362,1,Water leaks,"Have tried several times and water leaks from around the cap. Huge mess and weak coffee. Complete waste of money. If the maker can figure out how to provide a better seal, it would probably work. O-ring maybe? Please go back to the drawing board."
36397,1,Not recognizing specific monitors,"I plugged it in and both my 23"" HD monitor and my 42"" HDTV. They came on at 1024x768 resolution, with a max of 1660x1024 or something like that. The option for 1920x1080 wasn't even listed and my monitor showed up as ""Generic PnP Monitor"". Absolutely would not allow me to change it, even updating drivers. So, I had to plug my monitor into my PC directly, as before, and forget about splitting the signal to two monitors. Oh well, guess I need to buy a video card with 2 outputs. Live and learn."
36399,1,Overkill at best.,"I was enthralled by the beginnings of the Wheel of Time. I thought, ""Wow, this book has magic ( the True Power) in a completely new form no one had ever conceived before, and new races ( Ogier and Trollocs ) straight from the author's imagination. But 2500 some pages later, with little more to add than sensless rhetoric about the same doubts and misconceptions that troubled the characters from page one of the Eye of The World, it's getting old. End it while you can, Robert J. This series will be your funeral."
36458,1,Whoever remastered this should be enslaved,"Okay, we know that the original movie soundtrack wasn't the greatest to begin with (Jack Nicholson singing leaves a very bad taste in your brain) but it had a few memorable tracks: Prologue 1945, Christmas, See Me-Feel Me/Listening to You, and the Acid Queen. So, one would think that with a remastered soundtrack the engineer(s) would make those, and the other tracks, shine.Wrong.The remastered album is dreadful, _especially_ Prologue 1945: it's brash, noisy musical mayhem--it sounds like The Three Stooges tripping and falling their way through an orchestra pit/recording studio...and that's just the beginning. I'm so disappointed with the disc I just may stick in the microwave just to feel good about its self-destruction as it generates a miniature lightning storm and melts into a puddle of muddled musical goo.Save yourself some money and disappointment: buy the DVD and rip it to .mp3 files, instead."
36486,1,don't waste your time or money,"the top layer that has the picture of the animal printed on it is nothing more than lightly laminated paper. my daughter put one in her mouth (you know, how every kid puts everything in their mouth) and literally within 30 seconds, she had chunks of colored paper in her mouth. fell apart instantly. AVOID THIS PRODUCT!!!"
36508,1,Disappontment,I returned this card shuffler immediately because the plastic on one of the battery door hinges was broken. I can't tell you if this does a good job shuffling cards but I can tell you that the plastic material used in its construction is so cheaply made that I didn't want a replacement.
36510,1,Damaged,"The item was a Christmas gift for my daughter. It had a piece of plastic broken off, and not in the box. It also had a weak spring which made it function poorly. I have one that works fine, so I am familiar with the item. I am sure it was a returned item. However, it wasn't worth the time and trouble for us to return it. I am seriously disappointed with the CONDITION of this item. Someone needs better quality control.Kent"
36583,1,Not Good.,I read this book in 5th grade and thought it extremely boring. I recently re-read it in college and still think it is. There are many elements of family time and it does portray the way families were torn apart by choosing sides.
36650,1,Bland with SEEDS and peels!,"I was VERY disappointed when I received these pears. They are not peeled and the seeds are not removed. The peels alone I could probably forgive, but many pieces have seeds and/or core, which make for difficult eating, especially for children. Even the taste is rather bland. They are not sweet pears at all, and are leathery texture. Definitely not a child-friendly snack! Now I'm stuck with fifty bucks worth of seeded dried pears, because you can't return food. Definitely would NOT recommend!"
36684,1,This is really not a digital camera,The jam cam looked so cool up until I opend it! This is not a digital camera it dosen't have a monitor. You have to upload the pics onto your computer just to look at how they came out!
36722,1,Disappointing.....,"Although I did enjoy this book more than 'Roses Are Red', I am diappointed in the path that Patterson's Alex Cross novels have taken. Each novel in the series since 'Cat and Mouse' has involved less police work and very little suspense. At several points in Violets are Blue, I found myself feeling as though I had read this all before - Cross asking himself questions about the killers, Cross yearning for his current partner, Cross yearning for his former partners from previous books, Cross feeling guilty for not being with his children, etc. Where is the suspense? The police work?? In Violets are Blue, Cross did nothing to catch the vampires or the Mastermind - the police find the vampires on a tip from a journalist, and Cross stumbles across the Mastermind after ""having a feeling"" - please. I hope Patterson has some better ideas for the next Cross novel."
36744,1,Not impressed,This book was so old and yellowed. I hate the font and the looks of the book. I recommend you to buy a newer addition!
36757,1,"SAP SD Interview Questions, Answers, and Explanations",This book is a wate of time and money. I will not recommend this to anyone. This book is not worth publishing. The questions are vauge and some times incomplete. The book space is wated by using double spacing and big fonts - even then only half a page is filled with one question incomplete answer and no explanation. In reality this is a 25 page book.Total waste of money.
36790,1,Terrible - Belkin changed materials,"I also loved these mouse pads, have used them for years. Like the reviewer above, I just bought a new one, my third, and found that Belkin has changed them. The quality is entirely different and cheap now. The ""gel pad"" doesn't give, and I don't believe it's even gel - it feels like cheap foam."
36793,1,Unbelievably foul solvent odor,Sitting on the table beside me this thing made my eyes water. Sitting in my bathroom it still filled the bedroom with stink. I have put it outside now and I don't know when I'll be able to bring it back in and use it.
36820,1,YAWN,"wow.... how interesting...(yawn) another snide patronizing book about the Catholic Faith. In between the sneers I'm supposed to be impressed. So 1970's!!! Here's a thought! Some people actually take the truth of the Catholic Faith and all its beauty seriously! Truth can be challenging, so many ignore or belittle it."
36844,1,"Good tool, but it IS breakable!","This was a great tool...until it broke and flew hundreds of feet into the woods. I used it to cut Asiatic Bittersweet and Porcelain Berry vines. It was great! It really did a nice job of cutting those vines. Good balance, sharp blade, quality shape to cut and pull vines away.One day, I was cutting vines and the blade broke right off the handle. It was bizarre because there were no prior signs of damage. There were no cracks and the blade did not feel loose. So for the love of Crumb Cake, be careful with this tool if you purchase one.I am happy to report that after I sent an email (including pictures of the broken tool) to Fiskars' consumer affairs department, they said they would forward the pictures to their quality control department. They were very helpful and quick to respond."
36943,1,No Comment,Certainly ranks among the worst of the Hardy Boys. After volume #39 rarely were the Hardys in Bayport. The writers used geography to eat up pages.
37066,1,Candy Coated Nothing,"From the moment the credits started rolling to the moment they (thankfully) stopped, this overblown and hideous assault on the senses never truly wowed beyond a whimper (as in ""please stop the madness!"") The singing was terrible, the songs were rehashed and misplaced pop tunes (Ewan McGregor, grinning and slinking his way through ""Your Song"" by Elton John nearly destroyed my love of the tune), and the storyline was as thin as tissue paper. My whole family hated it, so one might argue that our dislike of the film is genetic; however, I've run into others to whom I'm not related who also roundly despise this costly puff of fluff. The only reason it averages 4 stars at Amazon, I believe, is because those of us who disliked it simply can't stand to think about it anymore, thereby keeping us from bothering to write about it. However, here's my 1 star, and if I could give it none, I would."
37069,1,Don't waste your time,"What a mind-bending piece of eye candy! Aside from the fact that our heroine dies very gracefully, despite the fact she has tuberculosis- a particularly nasty disease indeed, the modern soundtrack had the annoying habit of yanking the audience out of the story back into the present. With that in mind, it was extremely difficult to ""suspend disbelief."" I wanted to like it, but it was just a garbage movie."
37099,1,Broken Bulbs,"I ordered 96 bulbs; 4 packs of 24. All were packed in one master carton with a few air bags on top of the 24-pack cartons to take up excess space; no other packing/protection material. It was clear from the sound of broken glass coming from inside the 24-pack cartons that many of the bulbs arrived broken. Without opening the inner cartons, I returned the entire shipment."
37135,1,A total Bore,"I just wasted $15 bucks on an absolute piece of trash video. I love Creed and its music. I consider myself a big fan, and foolishly bought this video dispite the warning on Creed's home page about the poor quality of this video. I watched 15 minutes and had to turn it off because it was SO incredibly boring. No concert footage and no Creed music. All they show is still shots of one of their concerts, and they use the same 10 pictures over and over and over and over again. Then there are interviews with bar owners, DJs, and their pre-fame sound guy, all saying how the band ""was so incredibly special"" and they all miraculously knew Creed was going to make it big. Yeah, right. Don't bother buying this video."
37239,1,Expect Aggravations with Microsoft Wireless Entertainment Keyboard 8000,"DO NOT buy this product if you want to spend any time at all actually WORKING, rather than troubleshooting why the keyboard and/or mouse doesn't work. I have already rebooted my machine (an HP Pavilion tx 2000) 6 times this morning, and it's not yet 10A; I've spent at least an hour a day for the last 2 weeks trying to resolve why I am having such frequent lock-ups, most of which require an unsafe shutdown. The most annoying is the regularly occurring ""stuck keys,"" where you're typing along, and all of a sudden, you type a letter and then it just keeps on typing, over and over, on every screen you go to, Word document, Excel spread, even password screens. there is no solution but to reboot. This product is very expensive and is SO NOT WORTH IT. stay with the wire, go back to the wire, or pick something else, but don't buy this nightmare of a product."
37245,1,It is awful!,"I wish I had read the reviews before I purchased the item. Naughty on me! The game is awful. It crashes often, has no historical accuracy and is inoperable. Do not purchase this Rusky developed joke."
37280,1,ugh ugh ugh,"These just don't work either they are too big or too small. I have purchased three, and all different sizes thinking it was me, and none of them work. Oh well better luck next time. I wouldn't recommend buying it, but maybe I got a defective size."
37302,1,DO NOT BUY THIS EDITION,"This a terrible edition of Joyce's first published book. The binding is flimsy, and the book is poorly put together. Many of the poems are not properly printed--for example, most of poems appear in paragraph form! Don't waste your money on it."
37327,1,Disappointed!,"Shame on Amazon for not noting this was a live album in their product description. I was in a hurry and bought this album to close out my order and did it based on the song titles. Had they noted it was live, I would have ordered a different album. I'm disappointed in that now I'm going to have to scroll through all the screens to research every purchase because someone short-cutted it and put in a vague description."
37421,1,awful,i had to read this in high school. it was the only book that year that i truly hated. it's boring and it glorifies war.
37436,1,Very Frustrating,"I ordered this scanner to replace an old one which was on it's last leg. I regret to say that the Microtek ScanMaker X12USL is easily the most difficult piece of hardware I've ever used. It took a long time to set up, then every time I tried to use it, it always gave me trouble. I must admit that I'm not the most computer literate person around, so I hired a computer guy to help. It took him an hour and a half to get things working. He was as baffled as I was. After he left, the scanner started acting up again. Since I had already thrown away the box and the packaging materials, I donated the scanner to the local high school. Hopefully they'll be able to figure it out.Note: I bought an Epson Perfection 1200U scanner next, and have not had any problems with it. It seems to work pretty good so far."
37466,1,Freezes on Sony Blue-ray player,"Really disapointing. This is the third time I bought Baraka movie! first VHS format on 96, than DVD and now Blue-ray format. I was one of the first to receive, I believe, because I have pre-ordered on Amazon. Came with problem, and I have returned, than received another copy. But same problem, in my opinion think this problem was spread out on the very first release, so better to wait a couple more months to get a better release. Don't buy now."
37475,1,I've had the lp for years. It's still in new condition.,I do not understand the enthusiasm for this collection of crappy tunes. This is The Stones at their worst. Skip it.
37691,1,An average horror movie,"This movie is for the ones who like ""any"" kind of horror movies. I could not find anything special in it except for visual effects in some scenes. I call it an average horror movie as it does not have a value added but just makes you spend some spare time. There is too much blood in the flick and some instant moves make it rated R for viewers below 18 (and persons with heart problems)"
37776,1,Wreck/Dreck of Rama,"If Rama II disappointed, avoid this one. The entire plot line is silly (as Nicole and Co. go back and forth between star systems, mostly asleep but aging) and at the end the reader is no where -- third-rate 'cliff-hanger' to get you to buy the next book. It will take another 400 pages in Rama Revealed to get to the so-called revelation. Fans of ACC will not recognize any of his ideas in this volume which basically assumes humans have learned nothing over the years: just plain ignorant, easily manipulated by political leaders, guided by superstition, and usually kill anything in sight. Most of the lead actors are mere caricatures, no personalities or redeeming features and you'll probably despise the heroine, Nicole, who is portrayed as perfect. You're more likely to be entertained by an old B-film from American International than this sludge."
37830,1,Worthless,"I feel dumber now that I have read this book. All it does is takes common sense ideas and repeats them over and over. For a newcomer to salmon trolling like myself, this book should have taught me a great many things, but I guess I will have to learn from my next book."
37858,1,not framed well AT ALL,"I was pretty disappointed upon receiving this. The poster inside the frame had multiple bends and creases which are easily visible and create glares, as if the framing process was rushed and done carelessly. Also, the picture itself is really dark, and a lot of the details cannot be seen. Will probably not be buying from PosterRevolution anymore..."
37935,1,Spend 240 minutes listening to Dylan's cds instead!,"I'm one of the biggest Dylan fans out there. This film is horrible with a capital sucks. How anyone can sit through this entire ""film"" is beyond me. Cheesy effects galore! The same Rolling Thunder Review footage shown OVER AND OVER again! The WORST photos of Dylan in existence! Why is Rob Stoner wearing those STUPID sunglasses during his entire interview? He's INSIDE! Will someone PLEASE hand Hurricane Carter a towel so he can wipe the sweat from his brow? I've seen school plays that were more entertaining.If you do decide to give it a go do yourself a favor and see if your library has it instead of throwing your money away. Then skim through the dvd to the semi-interesting parts...you'll be done in a half hour tops."
38129,1,Is this really for kids?,"Where the Wild Things Are is definitely not for kids: it'll scare them! When Max gets stuck under the snow pile and starts crying, kids will, too! Same thing when the monsters surround the kid. The book isn't nearly as scary. It's more lighthearted and has an exciting feeling when Max goes on the adventure. I couldn't even finish the movie. Maybe it gets better in the end, but I honestly feel the movie gives the book a bad reputation."
38200,1,Absolute junk!,"I have been reading romance novels for more than 25 years. I really love romance. The first 20 pages or so, I started to feel a sense of ""yuck"". You can read a romance and it can be romantic and funny and exciting. This one was not. Using the ""F"" word so many times was a mistake, in my humble opinion. You can find other words to use that are not so offensive and try to leave a little to the imagination. Recommendation: Save your money."
38239,1,The box office says it all!,"Look at it this way. AVP couldn`t even outgross Aliens, a movie that is 18 years old. Imagine the price of tickets back in 1986,and Aliens was R-rated! I REST MY CASE!"
38266,1,DONT LIKE,FIRST OF ALL THESE CHRISTIAN BANDS CANT PLAY(NONE OF THEM)I WOULD HAVE GAVE THEM A LOWER RATING IF I COULD.
38299,1,Let Ian Fleming rest in peace,"I remind everyone of the fact, covered in some magazine articles, that authors have their friends and family write reviews for Amazon. The author him or herself can submit multiple reviews. So any book of this ilk that has this many high-star, gushing reviews, accompanied by others at the far end of the spectrum, beware..."
38319,1,"Turgid, a book of little consequence",This book attempts to prove what everyone already knows. Fones Wolf proves she has no depth and no real understanding of Twentieth century cultural and intellectual history. Her book is pitched toward the lamest of knee jerk liberals.
38327,1,The first movie I felt I needed to watch in fastforward.,"This has to be the most unbelievable and boring movie ever! I have spent time in Japan and was never able to complete 10% of what I wanted to do. Here we have two people who can find nothing interesting in all of Japan. They are just two people who are depressed with their lives and we are forced to suffer with them. I could not care less how depressed they are with their lives. The only thing I was waiting for throughout the movie and sadly never happened was for them to both jump from their hotel windows killing themselves. I am most thankful that I only rented this movie, so I am only out 2 Euros for this bomb. Why, oh why can we not select 0 stars???"
38336,1,lost in a hotel,"My trip to Japan last summer was awesome. The food was great, ppl were nice, and the places were beautiful. What about the country seen through the eyes of these people in the movie? It seems so boring and freaky. hmmmm let's see... maybe it's cuz THEY NEVER HAD THE GUTS TO LEAVE THAT STUFFY HOTEL! This movie portrays a lot of idiots in real life who waste money to travel abroad but instead of experiencing the culture and learning the language, they create an artificial environment resembling their home and hide in it. no wonder they feel isolated. duh!"
38421,1,waisting money,"This stuff won't suppport your back and it doesn't stay on the lower back, it keeps running up and down while I wear it, end up return this item."
38448,1,A real disappointment. Has been done better elsewhere.,"I grabbed this book in spite of the title & am sorry that I did. The subject is fascinating, but the author simply doesn't do it justice. We get far too much personal anecdote (often without any real conclusion) and far too little real meat. Especially given the controversy (and topicality) of the Pleistocene extinctions & the possible role that early humans played one would hope for something that would inform the educated layperson while energizing the serious student. Ward is definitely capable of this as shown by his earlier book on living fossils, but somehow he loses his way here. After reading the book I really had to wonder just who it was intended for, it seems to fall between two stools -too technical for the non-scientist & not serious enough (nor with a sufficiently useful list of citations) for the professional. A real pity & one hopes that someone else rises to the challenge."
38451,1,I love you Laura but you went too far,This albun is the crescendo of Laura Branigan's perverse(at times) experimenatlism Her courageous pushing of boundaries is what I most loved about her and for years I forgave her for this album. But I decided I can't any more. This album was the first part of a two part experiment(next .album- Touch part 2)The basic experimental issue: is it possibly to overpower absolutely trash songs and music with beautiful singing. Can you detract from the obvious lack of ANY serious investment of time or energy from the song writers with the ultimate use of your vocal chords. The latter is certain there her singing and use of her voice richness is at it's peak. For years she almost succeeded. The test tubes incubated over the years but the final results on on the data pad. Didn't work. I love her ability to try anything as long as I have some idea what or WHY. That's what I could never quite get on this one. Bad burn from the bunsen burner.
38569,1,look for restored copy,"I bought this DVD for my 2 girls (age 6). This was one holiday story that I enjoyed and wanted to share it with them. The story is great, 2 bears want to know about christmas and the park ranger tells them about it, but the quality was very poor. I had the stereo turned all the way up to hear the sound which was laced with a low hum throughout and the actual movie quality is very poor also. It appears that this old show was copied from a VCR and put on a DVD and then mass marketed. I recommend the story but not this version, look for one that has been restored."
38610,1,Too Much for Too Little!,"I bought a play checkbook at the dollar store. My daughter used some scrap cardboard & duct tape we already had, to create a cover. Used regular pens. My kids don't get allowance, but I do pay them for extra work around the house. I used the one I bought to write them a check, and keep track of what they are owed. They get payed when I get payed."
38613,1,ok,"It's small size and easy to take with you to charge the battery. However, I didn't realize it already came with the camera package, so lost money for s/h to return it."
38722,1,toy-like quality.,"Crappy, toy-like quality. The color is not consistent too. It will only ruin your car's interior."
38754,1,"Boring, not realistic","First of all, any movie with Vin Diesel should tell you right off the bat that it's gonna be bad. And this movie is BAD. Spielberg was always a pretty overrated director. This movie isn't as bad as ""E.T.,"" but it's not realistic. The first 20 minutes look like a PlayStation movie. For a more accurate depiction of the horrors of war, check out the amazing ""Pearl Harbor"" with Ben Affleck."
38819,1,Worst Bond movie ever,"This is the Worst Bond movie ever. Bond just received his license to kill, which means he is in his early career year. But the storyline is after 911. Which means this movie's timeline does not match with other Bonds movies.Worst of all, all his moves are predictable.Don't buy the movie. Rent one and you will be tired of it after one watch."
38842,1,Love it and hate it,"I love the content of the discs but I wonder why this bluray ''collector's edition'' did not includes the booklet of the dvd? it's annoying!!!. I hate the edition , it's too simple."
38850,1,ZERO,Our book club from Amarillo just finished discussing this book. We are seven women who grew up in Amarillo and attended Tascosa High School during the same era as Gail Caldwell. Her memoir is arrogant. Who wants to waste their time reading a list of books another person read?We graduated went to the University of Texas in Austin. We are glad to be back in Amarillo.We would have rated the book a zero of five stars if that was an option.
38864,1,People who advised me on watching this; PUH_LEASE!,"This movie is not even worth one star! The story plot is cheap; there are too many pop culture songs; what is DreamWorks thinking?There are hardly any characters! The DVD itself focuses more on pop culture than the story, the most important piece in a movie! My friends all told me to watch this movie - well, now, I've watched it, and I hate it! Whoever thinks Shrek is better than Shrek 2 had better check their heads. I like Shrek 2, like so much better!"
38888,1,"ok, wouldn't purchase again",I wanted a fireplace and aquarium for my flat screen and didn't research very much before purchased this. I am sure there are better ones on the market. It will do in a pinch.
38945,1,Not as good as the movie would make you think...,"The movie is probably better than the book in this case, because Rice's writing style is very flat - almost like reading a screenplay. Her storytelling ability is good but she doesn't really have a writing style to go along with it. Not really recommended."
38958,1,totalmente desilusionante,"Este libro es muy malo ya que no contiene ningun ritual verdadero para la buena suerte cuando lo lei senti deceos de tirarlo a la basura solo contiene tips que son meras superticiones demasiado malos que ni siquiera por sugestion harian efecto algunoy eso me desconcerta por que el autor conoce de rituales muy buenos y verdaderos pues son mas valiosos los pequenos folletos que se venden con recetas magicas de el, mi recomendacion es que tiras tu dinero si compras este libro. mas bien este libro se deveria de llamar le libro de la MALA suerte por que que mala suerte que lo haya comprado"
38981,1,"Racist, sexist; a difficult read for the modern reader.","When I read this book, I thought it was a satire of something that might have happened in 1970s London. I even sort of enjoyed it, though the treatment of Brenda and the racism in the book was jarring at times. Then I read the introduction. The best thing about this book is that years later, the author was slapped at an event by a female activist for his horrid portrayal of women in the book. For a man writing about a character who supposedly had sex with hundreds of white women and managed to get Brenda to sleep with him even after he let his friend try to rape her without interfering, this author seems to have neither respect for nor understanding of women."
38988,1,not worth the money,"Thank goodness we received this as a gift. My daughter is super un-impressed and never plays with this ball. Mommy hates it too -it makes this obnoxious giggle sound that makes me want to crawl out of my skin. And it plays forever after baby stops touching it - I don't like that it's not a good feedback toy. Its really awful if you forget to turn it off before baby goes to sleep. Next thing you know, you walk by it, the flor squeaks or shakes a second and this toy starts shrieking. I will never buy this for anyone else nor recommend it"
38994,1,Only 2 1/2 Stars,"I was hoping that this was going to be a good parody of those goofy lefty documentaries that the beautiful people lap up, but it didn't deliver. Some great talent assembled for the show, but it looks like they rushed the script to get it to market. No story, no peace."
39054,1,Do NOT Buy This Movie,"I honestly couldn't watch more than fifteen minutes of this train wreck. The writing is terrible to the point of nausea, and Lex, Lois, and Braniac are so far out of their established characters that it isn't funny. And I mean that literally, since the writer seems to be trying to play them for laughs.Had I seen this on Cartoon Network before purchasing it (I'd pre-ordered it the day I'd heard about it, months ago, based on the strength of the original series and Justice League), I'd have never wasted my money."
39328,1,Okay at First,I bought this to sit on my daughters dresser and play her classical music at night. I have gone through 3 Of these Boombox's. They work good at first but after a little bit they just stop working. They won't play any CD's I put in. I am now to the point of frustrated and I will never buy this CD player again.
39395,1,"Poor quality, needs repairs constantly, doesn't work.","I spent over $2,400 on this dryer and the washer, and they are both worthless. The dryer doesn't dry properly, has been down for repair twice for a total of 4 weeks to the tune of $550 in repairs. First the gas valve died (a ""common"" problem with this dryer according to the repair person) $300 repair. Now the drive belt broke, and that's another $250 with some other parts. They are both less than 2 1/2 years old.The washer vibrates so much it sounds like there's a military helicopter over the house. And yes, I've tried ALL the vibration fixes. Nothing works. The washer smells like mildew, even when you follow the instructions for cleaning and leaving the door open between cycles. And it LEAKS on the floor randomly.LG = Like GarbageI had a Maytag set for 18 years before this and they worked perfectly. I wish I still had them instead of these 2 year old junkpiles."
39396,1,Conducting DVD,"This DVD was less than satisfying. Although some of the interviews are good, the DVD does not show technique or delve into the individual conducting styles of the various highlighted individuals. Archive footage sometimes ignores the conductor altogether and pans around the orchestra.An interesting DVD for general information. A non-starter for the musically trained or someone actually looking for a resource for the art of conducting."
39557,1,Good for kiddies,"If you are the mother of young children, or homeschooling your youngster to do art, then this is quite possibly the book for you. Assuming you have little or no knowledge of drawing, it takes you through the basics, in easy, child-level steps. I've used it with my little boy, and he's showing great talent, at least according to this book - it's hard to tell at this age. Book seems a bit limited, though, but at least for my boy the level of language is usefully simple."
39571,1,Horrible!!!,"First let me say that I am a big Nugent fan. I have enjoyed his performances for years and I thought his last DVD Full Bluntal... was quite good. It's not so much the performances which are a bit forced, even for Ted, but the horrible camera and editing work that was done here. Not only does the editor constantly switch shots, but many of the selected shots are just stupid. There are many moments where Ted is playing some really nice stuff and the camera is somewhere else??!! I blame everyone involved from the camera crew, who are terrible, with shots of the floor, shots of Ted hidden behind his monitor so all you see is a full shot of his monitor??!! What is that all about?? And how could the editor see that and include it?? And how could Ted see this video and put his stamp of approval on it?? Just lazy I guess, which is a real shame. If you all cannot do any better then put the cameras down and forget it. As for his fans just buy the cd you will be much better off."
39666,1,Ouch,Is it any coincidence that my friends who like this bands music(if thats what you want to call it) are my friends who have dropped out of school?I truely belive that you are what you listen to. And thus if you listen to waste like this then you are a waste.Do yourself and the rest of the world a favor and if you have this album go dig a very deep hole and bury it. So that nobody on earth will ever be subjected to this waste of material again.
39711,1,Tapioca hamburger buns,"I was really disappointed when I tried the hamburger buns. No matter what I did with them, including heating them in the microwave with a damp paper towel, they were hard to chew and swallow and did not taste anything remotely close to a hamburger bun. This is one item I would not recommend to any one."
39714,1,Not Really Necessary,"The only thing in this kit that a beginning flutist really needs is the polishing cloth--provided (s)he has a silver or silver-plated flute. At that, I'd prefer a Sunshine cloth to the cloth in this kit. A beginner doesn't need oil for the springs and certainly doesn't need cork grease. I'm not sure quite what one would do with the little brush--I suppose if you had bad flute care habits it would let you brush lint or dirt away from the keys and workings. The chamois cloths are too small and thick to use to mop the inside of the flute though they do a nice job of getting rid of fingerprints on the outside. Instead of buying this kit obtain an old cotton or linen handkerchief (to use with the cleaning rod provided with your flute), a box of alcohol wipes (to clean the outside of the flute--don't get them near the pads-- and a Sunshine cloth for polishing. If you really want it all also get some curl papers ($2 for 1,000) to remove moisture from the pads."
39784,1,please!,please! a nother bratz movie! this movie they look wireder then the rock angels. at least barbie has a nosies and real lips!
39809,1,Disappointed,"I was looking for a great, affordable 5-button mouse. This one worked right off the bat--once I plugged it in. I was surprised that it came with a floppy disk with the drivers on it---who even USES floppys anymore!? I was able to dl drivers off the website though, so that wasn't a big deal. My biggest disappointment with this mouse is the fact that it is SOOOOO jumpy! It skips ALL over the place, and that is REALLY annoying. For this ONE reason, a very big one (to me), I rate it at a 2."
39832,1,"Boring, sad, meandering, couldn't finish it...","I never give up on a book, but this one just lost me. I got through 3/4 of it, and just gave up. The characters seemed very one-dimensional to me, they grew without growing if that makes sense. I couldn't bear another drunken father story, or mother talking to herself (but really to her mother who's back in Nigeria) or the girls working through problem after problem with no real resolution. I felt like they were hamsters on a wheel, as was I for reading the same thing over and over. Finally I jumped off the wheel and moved on. Thank God. I was really disappointed because I feel the author had a story there, and I had read positive reviews. Oh well. Maybe someone else can enlighten me, or maybe her next novel will show me how wrong I am."
39855,1,One unhappy customer!!!,"The movie is great, but the ""digital download"" is crap! I will never purchase multi-format DVD's from Warner Bros again! This is very misleading and a complete waste of my hard earned money!!!"
39858,1,A very contemporary film... in the worst possible sense,"Around the time that games started making more money than films, movies began to look an awful lot like games and the last few Harry Potter films are no exception. Every scene has the same texture, dim lighting, awkward and indecipherable action sequences created by people who have likely spent far too much time indoors to know how things actually look and move.Not to be outdone, David Yates method directs like a binging Death Eater and drains any remaining signs of life from this once charming series. The main characters all but collapse under the weight of their faux grim and gritty makeovers. Cringe-worthy lines like, ""Not my daughter you b***h!"" pretty much ensure that this film will only be timeless as an object of ridicule, much like an avocado-colored refrigerator is today."
39883,1,This is not 0.024 wire,This is 0.023 wire. My machine slips with smaller wire and I bought it specifically because the description says 0.024. The product is labeled 0.023 and it measures the same.
39910,1,Good when it works!,"With the battery fully charged, the unit does what it is supposed to. However, beware this product due to the high incidence of defective charging systems. The solar cell which is supposed to charge the batteries during the day is defective 2 out of 3 times. In effect, the batteries are not getting charged during the day (or not enough in any case). What you end up with is a dim, weak light for a couple of hours. I believe this is due to defective units, but there are too many of them defective."
39921,1,Electric Dreams DVD,"I've been waiting a long time for ""Electric Dreams"" to come to DVD so I was delighted to find it available. However, when I loaded it on my DVD player, I was disappointed to find that the picture began to ""roll"" like the old ""vertical"" adjustments on the old style TVs. This was common in the early days with black and white TVs but extremely uncommon with the modern flat screens and there is no adjustment to correct it (at least I don't know of one...) I was able to get it to work on my desktop computer and this was the only reason I didn't return it. I don't know how this movie was copied onto DVD but there needs to me greater care to guarantee that the product performs as expected. Great movie but a big disappointment with the performance of the DVD"
40057,1,Nice..but,"I didn't notice any difference in the bugs, when using this device. Mayb in another environment... Still using it, but would recommend something else"
40088,1,Not So Good,"Book is not so good, There is a discussion of different brands of SCT but besides that you can't get much of the specifics on things to help you with SCT. At least nothing that you can already get from the internet. Also doesn't seem to discuss much on the possible accessories for SCT's. Practically his discussion relates more to visually using SCT, but for astrophotography nothing, doesn't even mention equatorial wedges. All in all this book just whets your appetite regarding possibilities of SCT but you have to look for details in some other book. Look at Wodawski's book on Astrophotography as it discusses quite a bit regarding astrophotography using SCT. The rest look at Star Ware by Phil Harrington"
40109,1,Dateline: The Eternal Edition,"The story is truely compelling and the book needed to be written, but would have been better if it followed the format of ""Skipping Christmas,"" a small, quick read.Instead, we have an edition of Dateline that just never ends. If you purchase this book, go into it with the understanding that every couple of pages is like hitting a commercial break. First, you read what you already know. Then, you get a quick promo of what is to come. The problem is the end never seems to come. I can almost imaging Stone Phillips shaking his head around saying, ""More on that, when we come back.""Sorry, Mr. Grisham, but this is your worst book. And, please realize that such a review comes from someone who owns all first edition hardcovers of previous books and I've taken into consideration ""A Painted House,"" a book I was unable to finish due to severe bordom."
40135,1,The Worst,"I bought this about two months ago, and the bulb has already gone out. I don't recommend that anyone else choose this one over others with better reviews."
40169,1,disappointing,"The DVD was in good shape. The disappointing comes into play when you watch the movie. Lloyd Bridges should have stayed underwater with Scuba gear. The plot was a real letdown even for ""B"" 50's scifi."
40376,1,Didn't Care For It...,"I know there seems to be a lot of fair reviews on this book, but it didn't really seem all that great to me. My biggest complaint overall was the grammatical errors, which is a pet peeve of mine and I kept running into them on just about every page. It made me wonder who exactly did the editing, because they obviously weren't doing their job. The writing just also seemed kind of week, also, although the story was interesting, I feel like the quality of writing brought it down."
40383,1,unfortunate consumer,"This product called ""Hot Cereal"" came under Instant Oatmeal but I/we saw absolutely nothing that evenremotely resembled an oat. There was no flavor despite the label and if one is supposed to feast with the eyes first, then I/we must say, without exaggeration, that it looked like pulverized cement mix with no aroma. The taste? Completely absent, defying any description in words. To boot, the shipping fee is greater than the cost of what the manufacturer considers a food."
40405,1,Not very powerful,"It must get very dark at my house, this light does work but you will have a hard time seeing the color of any meat. Its not very bright so on larger grills you may need 2 or 3."
40441,1,It's okay I guess.,"WilE coyote is a hoot! Try to count how many times he explodes in the whole video!!! It has the classic ""SCRAMLED ACHES"" on it, one of the funniest and my all time favorite classic. It had ""HIP HIP HURRY"" on it and I was very dissappointed at what I saw. To problems with that cartoon. WilE coyote almost always appears off screen, but even worse, WilE takes a speed drug which is not appropriet and unlawful so who cares if he's just a carrtoon!!! Other than that ""HIP HIP HURRY"" is okay. All the rest is totaly fine, funny, and the best cartoon duo LooneyTunes ever made!!!!!!!!"
40450,1,Lackluster Splice,"SPLICE is one of those films that should have been so good. I wanted to like it so badly. Sadly, the movie falls short of the mark not by mere inches but by giant chasms. The plot is plodding and slow. The cast do a fine job, but Adrien Brody is so underused in this film. He comes off as a ""whipped"" man that has no spine until it is too late. The creature itself is pitiful and exotic. I will not give anything away, but as an audience we are asked to make absurd leaps in logic to follow a plot that jumps in silly directions. It is like the film tries to do too much and never does anything very well. Skip splice, it is not worth the time. It is a fine idea poorly executed."
40459,1,Stick with Un Chien Andalou and skip this,"The movie has some interesting, if crudely executed, images such as a cow in a bed, a giraffe tossed from a second-story window, a woman literally sucking off a man's fingers and Jesus portrayed as a serial-killing pedophile. Yet somehow it manages to be boring.Director Luis Bunuel mostly lectures the viewer with heavy-handed symbolism and forgets to be coherent (even within his surrealist format) and has many pointless, dull scenes such as the rebellious peasants at the beginning.As for the DVD, the image looks OK for its age but could've been cleaned up better.The commentary track is poor. The film historian lets lengthy passages and many interesting images go by without comment, and when he does comment, his words overflow with academic jargon."
40482,1,"Man, what is this?","Ok, this album can be judged solely on the song ""Echelon"" alone. Google the lyrics. Seriously. The song is a nonsensical compilation of big words that Jared Leto thought sounded cool together. I don't understand how music like this gets popular."
40503,1,Recommended for those with long stays in Paris,"I was frustrated with this book's organization. I wanted to know things like which restaurant had the best chocolate mousse in Paris, which were the best values for the money, etc. With only one weekend in Paris, this book was too detailed for me and too difficult to quickly navigate."
40597,1,"Movie Is Better..,","I swear, that this book i awfull. I wasn't much of a fan for the first book. But this was horribale and more confusing. I think Thomas Harris Could've done better.If you Liked This Book check out the movie, soundtrack, The Silince Of The Lambs & Red Dragon also By Thomas Harris."
40676,1,"Huge disappointment following ""Silence of the Lambs""","I clearly remember being ""spooked"" reading Silence of the Lambs back in 91 and looked forward to Harris'sequel with anticipation. What a let down! The first three quarters of the plot is well-paced and sets up the potential for a good finale. The final outcome, however, left me fuming with disbelief."
40683,1,Harris seems to say......,"Harris seems to say another ""Lecter book? No problem, I'll phone it in."" If you're expecting a stellar end to a trilogy, then you'll be disappointed. Harris really takes what could have been great and just gets lost in the thought that no matter what he writes w/ Hannibal Lecter in it,that it will sell. Now I'm not slamming his ability because ""Black Sunday"", ""Red Dragon"", and ""The Silence of the Lambs"" are all great books and worth having in your collection. But this book left a lot to be desired and I'm surprised the publisher didn't at least say something about it. I would also like to add that I'm glad I borrowed this book because I would definitely have wanted my money back or an exchange. I only give this book one star because you have to enter at least one star."
40791,1,Don't buy,"I played Sonic's other version and expecting to play a nice platform shot-m-up game, but such a disappointment. I am just glad it was a rent, I didn't paid $60 for it. Even if it gets discounted to $10, I will still not buy it."
40799,1,"sha,she-sha,she-SHA!!!","extremely boring italian non-horror movie. this movie builds and builds, but nothing ever really happens. The guy who doesn't get it? I'll tell you my friend. This movie rides on the coattails of the ""its so weird and strange, it must be a masterpiece"" logic. There isn't any horror, some gaudy colors, entanglement in barbed-wire, maggots, and Friday the 13th. noises. thats it. there isn't much pay off to watching this film. at no point was I even remotely scared while watching this movie, and like that other guy, I had a really hard time not falling asleep. You want Italian scares? bring on Fulci or the Bavas, or even Cannibal Holocaust for chrissakes! Argento is a hack and a phony. period."
40808,1,Reviews are lies,"I had read so much about this movie, it was called one of the scarriest movie of all time...please. This was awful. I love the Italian horror movie genre even though they are cheesy, but this movie was not at all scary. The plot was lousy, the special effects awful. Aviod this movie..."
40889,1,adorn hair spray,"Have ordered this item before without a problem - however - just had the opportunity to use first can of Adorn Unscented Extra Hold - it has a bad ""smell"" - actually made me ill smelling this on my hair. I cannot tolerate odors hence the reason for Unscented - very dissappointed - will not order from this company again."
40988,1,Fans can never be objective...,From the OBJECTIVE reviewer...What you know? That there is nothing very original or memorable...period.
41006,1,No Charge,"I purchased 2 batteries for a set of failing OEM batteries. The battery half life was quite short and did not seem to accept a charge,this was repeated in 2 separate phones and chargers. They were duds or not new stock I suspect. Watch out."
41060,1,This book was horrid.,"I was given this book by a friend. I can only assume they thought it would amuse me. I have never read such poor writing ever. Run-on sentences, misused words, incorrect punctuation...to name a few. Did anyone with a high school diploma edit this book? The premise is also somewhat amusing considering Californians are clamoring for a Terminator as Republican run at the Governorship. I can only hope this review helps one person not read this abomination. I would suggest reading the Enquirer before this book."
41090,1,Very Unhappy with this Product,"I purchased this camera for my daughter for Christmas. When I took it out of the wrapping on Christmas Eve, the LCD screen did not work (eventually we got it to work sometimes if we squeezed the front and back of the camera together almost violently). Then, the first time she wanted to download pictures, the USB jack broke loose from the casing. The Sakar rep I spoke with offered to replace the camera for me, but the camera I originally bought was so flimsy and cheap feeling, that, coupled with the defects that showed up in the first 12 hours, I have no interest in getting another one. Personally, I will never touch a Sakar product again."
41188,1,I'll stick with Sookie,"Easy and quick read, but a very predictable plot. Was hoping for more twists but I guess that I will just have to wait until summer for the next Sookie book!"
41229,1,Not what it appears to be,"I bought these, and the concept is better than the delivery. When you fix it the box only looks 1/3 full. Makes me wonder why they did not just use a smaller box. Anyway the flavor was OK, but the salt is a little high for me."
41266,1,"Adverse reaction, beware","I tried Advantix (as opposed to Advantage) for the first time recently and immediately noticed that my dog was having a strong reaction to it. She stayed up all night panting heavily and periodically would run in circles. I checked the package insert and it said nothing about possible adverse reactions, and the product website also failed to warn of potential problems. However, I read on a vet's site that Advantix, unlike Advantage, is known to cause a variety of side effects, including hyper-activity, which was obviously what was going on with my dog. This site said not to use the product again in the event of a bad reaction. Not only was I unhappy with the product, but was upset that Bayer didn't bother to list possible side effects. Very irresponsible. I won't use any of their pet products again."
41385,1,"Beyond politics, it's just not very good.","It's unfortunate that most of the reviews here seem to come down to either ""I agree with Neil's politics, so it's great"" or ""I disagree with Neil's politics, so it's awful."" Personally, because I agree with the politics, I was thrilled when it came out, and enjoyed listening to it the first few times, thinking ""you tell 'em Neil!"" I've always loved good protest songs--from Bob Dylan, John Lennon, and Phil Ochs to the Clash, Billy Bragg, Tracy Chapman, and Rage Against the Machine, and so was thrilled to see a return to the Neil Young of ""Ohio"" and ""Southern Man.""Subsequent listenings, however, revealed paint-by-numbers riffs and artless lyrics that are closer to what I'd expect to hear from strident, idealistic college students with guitars at political rallies (and, believe me, I've heard more than my share of them). Overall, much as I wanted to love it, I had to admit that it's one of his weakest efforts."
41440,1,HORRIBLE,This DVD was just JOHN EDWARD bashing...not even CLOSE to worth the money I paid for it...it's going immediately into the trash...SHAME on ABCNews for this release!
41441,1,Cheap...and that's about it.,"The ink is noticeably watered down compared to OEM and does not last nearly as long.However, for the price, you can't really complain..."
41463,1,I'm Rerturning it,"My experience is similar to the other one star reviews. It started beeping when I put it on, it beeped when the dog walked, it beeped no matter what my dog did. Any little noise or shaking or walking set the beep off. Upsetting and unhelpful."
41476,1,just what I was looking for,I would rather exercise in my home and wanted some sort of dancing. To me it is more fun than just regular exercises. It is perfect.
41503,1,dog training collar,"the collar i recieved was okay, a bit of a problem getting it to work, until i figured out that the batteries sent with the product were weak.so i purchased the correct and should i say more batteries.do amazon have a problem with batteries?"
41563,1,On Backorder,"This item, as of today, is still on back order with this vendor. It is NOT in stock as the page says. If you are Prime, you will be disappointed. They have no status on when they will ship. Look elsewhere."
41564,1,Not worth of the price,This product is not worth of the price. It is not as good as it looks in the picture. I've returned after looking at it and lost $12 in shipping.
41582,1,BEETLES!!,"Yes, I found a beetle larvae in our formula! Do NOT buy this product. I called the company, they are aware of the issue and are refunding the money but that doesn't take care of the problem. I switched to Enfamel enfacare. DO NOT BUY NEOSURE, PLEASE!!"
41585,1,Worst product ever produced,I am on my 4th box in 6 months. When my contract is up I am going right back to cable. I wish I had read these comments before I signed a contract with them. Direct TV is very difficult to deal with and this DVR is the worst product ever produced.
41607,1,Hard To Fill,"The can looks and feels great. The major drawback is that it's missing a separate fill hole/cap. In order to put gas in the can, you need to remove the funnel. The wear-and-tear on the funnel looks like it could cause the funnel to break easily. No mention anywhere that you can obtain replacement funnels. Otherwise, the one handed operation of the can has a good feel although the balance with a full can is somewhat ackward."
41632,1,Horrible,These were a present for my son and he used them one day and they stopped working in the middle of listening to a song and we couldn't get them to work again. I was very disappointed. If I knew that they would match the price to the quality then I would have just went to the store and bought a cheap pair that would have lasted longer.
41638,1,Major issues,We received this kit in about 8 weeks. We decided to open it on Christmas Eve to put it together. It did not come with any stands. We also have to drill holes in order to afix the Tom drums. Not very good at this because we have never put together a drum kit. There we few missing items as well. Did not work out well for us at all as we were trying to inspire or Rock Band drummer to get on a set of real drums.
41694,1,It's ok,"The story itself seems like it could be interesting if only all the characters were defined more. It's like reading a book where everyone is played by Kevin Costner. The main character, who is 17, speaks like a noble as does his 14 year old street urchin sidekick. I mean if you always thought fresh prince of bel air would have been good had the cast of 90210 been in it instead then you shouldn't have any trouble getting into the characters. I want to know how the story ends but I'm not going to pay for the sequel / shrug"
41728,1,Depends on how interested you are in the Word program,"I bought this because I needed a new copy of Word. Since Word is always bundled with other programs I chose this one for the price. However, I did not know there would not be a Word 2006 in the pkg. I later learned that Word did not have a new and improved version in 2006. However, this version was Word 2002! What a drag! It is older than the version I had on my system which had become defective. Now I need to buy another version."
41872,1,"Fast-paced, cliche-ridden ride","I won't deny it: I enjoyed the Matrix. It's a fun film. It's got great special effects, quick pacing, and a compelling story-line. In the end, though, it's nothing more than a fast-paced action flick with high production values but no substance or meaning, wooden acting, and a lack of original ideas. The story is stylish but cliched: A dystopian future run by machines, the search for a prophecided messiah, a ragged band of rebels fighting against the system, reality as a work of fiction, the choice between an idyllic life in slavery or a tortuous life in freedom--we've seen all of these before, just never with so many guns and black coats.The special effects are great, the action is quick-paced, and the story is fun to follow, but that's about as deep as this movie gets. It is an expensive, mindless blockbuster, hardly the beginning of a brilliant, inspired mythology for the new millenium."
41910,1,they suck - 0 stars,"They suck. Period. Horrible, hook-less ""music"" that is uninspired. Who likes this crap? They probably play this CD in Sadaam Hussein's cell as part of some torture program. I will give you $12.99 NOT to buy this. No one should profit from garbage like this. Be ashamed Puddle of Mudd, be ashamed."
42025,1,Meh.,"I opened these and was a bit disappointed in them. There is a seem running down both sides of them, which makes them look really cheap. Washing them a few times, they have slight discoloration, and 2 of them have broken easily. Also, they are very very slippery. My husband and I are pro with chopsticks - having lived in Japan for 2 years, but these ones are difficult for both of us to use. I wouldnt recommend :( The only good thing about this is that the little holders are nice. And before the colors fade from washing, theyre very cute."
42153,1,Amazon shipping ??? EXPECT TO WAIT A LONG TIME...,I ordered this game on Oct. 17today is Oct. 25 & now they say they will ship it by Oct 31st.
42166,1,Maybe a collectors doll but does not bare a resemblance and It is really sad!,"This doll does not bare a resemblance at all to Lily Munster, it looks like a male in females clothing. This is way to expensive for this doll! It may be a collectors item and grow in value so it may be worth it to purchase it. I am a fan of ""The Munsters"" and really love the barbie doll set with Lily and Herman Munster, as it bares a good resemblance of them but this one is rediculous."
42202,1,Disappointing,"I've read a few of Maggie Estep's books and I found Hex to be rather disappointing. I like her writing, but her story telling is somewhat lacking. I like it when I want to keep reading to find out what happens next but with Hex it was a little painful - there wasn't much suspense or action until the very end. Hardly any of the chapters actually moved you through the story. A lot of the scenes were unmotivated and sort of lagged on. Estep also writes from different character's point's of view and this is more annoying than illuminating."
42210,1,Does Not Work,This is the only HDMI cable I have ever used which did not work. It is constructed with very small diameter cable. The video it produces is totally scrambled. Buyer beware.
42214,1,Look elsewhere!,We had the same problem as the other person; the white thread all throughout the comforter. It's incredibly tacky looking at cheap. The third party company that sells these is horrible to work with too (if you can ever get them on the phone - they don't return their messages). You'd be better off doing business with someone else.
42216,1,One-Fourth outstanding,"2 1/2Besides for a few keenly performed post-rock instrumentals, there isn't much on this three-EP compilation to recommend with a majority of material ranging from averagely executed to pretentiously embarrassing."
42261,1,silly little movie,Astronaut's Wife tries hard but it's just too silly to be taken seriously. Johnny Depp is fine as Spencer an astronaut who may be possessed by an alien but he's stuck with Charlize Theron. Although she gotten much better as an actress and went on to win an Oscar this year in this role she's ghastly. She was evidently directed to do an imitation of Mia Farrow ala Rosemary's Baby and falls flat partly becuase she's got to work with dumb lines from a poor script.Having said all that the movie is entertaining if you enjoy throwing popcorn at your TV and yelling insults at the actors.
42304,1,Quite possibly the worst movie ever made.,"There are so many things wrong with this film,one cannot be sure quite where to begin.The lack of plot?The lack of enthusiam from the actors?The terrible musical sequences?Don't even bother renting this dud."
42307,1,Disapointment!,"I am a huge L&W fan but found this game very stupid and boring. Besides the confusion, I was sad to find out you are not really solving a crime but doing some strange ""guess the card"" game instead."
42384,1,Cds not playable,"I am not pleased with the purchase of these Cds, two of the cds are not playable they freeze. I have cleaned them and still they freeze in the same areas. I guess the price was too good to be true. My fault on that one."
42397,1,Very disappointing,The songs on this set have been reengineered. One of the 2 CDs is particularly bad. A background beat has been added that sounds like it was done by a 5 year old with a new Casio.
42401,1,Very Very Very Disappointed!!!,"All this CD is is a couple of songs from her early days and the Body Guard soundtrack with some remixes. I've always liked Whitney Houston's music and was happy when I came across this CD, but I as soon as I listened to it I was disappointed. ""That's it?"" was all I could say.Buy the Body Guard soundtrack instead of this one."
42412,1,Anti-Bark? Nope.,"I purchased this to quiet the beast. She's a hound mix and is rather gentle with the kids and well mannered when inside, but when she's outside she barks like crazy. When I first put the collar on her, she barked a few times and seemed a bit confused about the result. For the next few days she barked less frequently, but now that she's been wearing it for about two weeks she doesn't seem to care at all. Now that I've burned through the included can of citronella I can proclaim that the collar doesn't work for my dog.Also, keep in mind if it doesn't work on your dog, you can't return this item.I recommend a shock collar since it actually works, we have one of those but we (my wife) thought we should try this since its more humane."
42536,1,Not for long time Tom and Jerry fans,I grew up watching Tom and Jerry and I couldn't get through the first 15 minutes of it. I love the old time Tom and Jerry's when the music spoke for what was happening in the cartoon. This would probably be a good one for little kids that aren't very familiar with the way the older cartoons are.
42560,1,Boring and disappointing,"A Christmas Journey is a very disappointing book with a very misleading title. This is my first experience with any of Anne Perry's books, and it was a big effort to even finish this book. After finishing the book, I can't believe that I wasted my time even reading it.The story is set ""around"" Christmas time and has nothing to do with a ""Christmas"" story at all. The characters are extremely shallow without any depth, the book jacket's hint of a murder and mystery do not materialize at all, and there were many questions left unanswered and I would constantly ask myself, ""what.....""? Story lines did not connect and the plot did not easily flow.The entire story was unrealistic, bordering on horrible fantasy, as well as lacking in substance and depth. Not a book that I would recommend to anyone."
42680,1,Won't add PJ Tracy to my list of 'must read' authors,"I was so disappointed with this book. The sales blurb made it sound like one of those books I would read in one sitting; instead I had to force myself to keep going. The characters never became real for me and the narrative didn't flow and was stilted. In addition the whole thing was so unbelievable - even taking the point above about the Twin Towers. In short, I wanted a good read and got a mediocre one. Maybe if I had read the other books first, I would have liked this better. As it is I won't be buying the previous ones."
42703,1,good fictional work that fixed a social bottleneck with Whites & Blacks in America,"What if you blackened your skin to pass as a negro during the 1960's? What this fictional story showed us what was going on in racist America and moved millions for a change that we now, in a good part, enjoy."
42811,1,Go Slow!!,This thing really doesn't work. The red light went on AFTER I hit everything I was trying to avoid. Go VERY SLOW or you will end up on the other side of your garage wall. I now use mine as a stopper for the front wheel. Save yourself some money and buy a tennis ball and some string.
42833,1,PATHETIC,"I just listened to the samples of this CD and IT TOTALLY SUCKS. If you want Avril's songs, buy her actual album, not this pointless waste of money. The only reasons I gave this album one star is because you can't rate it anything lower and it was so bad it was hilarious. Whoever these Ex-Prom-Queens are, I suggest for the sake of humanity that they GO DO SOMETHING ELSE!!!!!!!!!ps: My sympathy to all you poor Avril fans that bought this CD."
42863,1,title says it all...,"thought this might be an interesting book on the rise and fall of a pop-culture ezine, but I couldn't get past page 15. Save you money for n-sync's next record..."
42870,1,Very flimsy side clamps are designed to break.,"The could a good product but it has a fatal design flaw which make it a complete ripoff. The side fasteners or clamps break within a year or so. My thinking is this is their way of creating demand for new juicers. This juicer is not a sealed unit. As others have said pulp sprays out on the counter if you're not extremely careful. I'm on my third juicer from them and I will not buy another. Yes, I have repaired them before but who wants to worry about that when you pay 250 for a juicer. I paid 250 at my local health food store. I believe in giving some of my business to local stores I believe are providing good products for the community even if I can find it cheaper online."
42935,1,"Worthless, philosophically unsound","This book is philosophically unsound, both in its arguments and in its source.Just as an example: Ayn Rand has the excellent suggestion that a building's style should be determined by its materials, and both should be determined by its purpose and its location.But if that is so, how can she think of building a temple for the human spirit out of stone (one of the central themes of the book)?What human spirit would be content in stone? What human spirit does not desire to create, to modify, to move? As such, the only proper temple can be living flesh and blood. Yet one of her central themes does seem to be that noble human spirits are best enshrined in steel and stone.She didn't carry her philosophy all the way through.This problem is repeated time and again. Thus, to those who find philosophical soundness to be important, I would advise them to go elsewhere. Even Atlas Shrugged is better on that scale."
43038,1,waste of money,"Being in the military, I have a limited amount of time to get back in shape after having a baby. Along with daily exercise and a super healthy diet, I bought this item to help out. Sure it helped me look alright under clothing(assuming I didn't move far or sit down) but that was the only benefit. Every time I sat down, it would scrunch up. After I left the hospital, I had a 34in waist. This product was FAR too tight. My husband had to help me and even he struggled. I wouldn't recommend this product to my worst enemy. If you're looking for something that actually works, buy the ""lytess new mom wasp waist panty"" from blissworld.com I'm almost back to my pre-pregnancy size!"
43104,1,Cute but cheap and broke too fast,"In less than a year and with supervised use by a four year old and almost three year old, it broke. I don't get it. One second it plays the cd the next it doesn't. I do not recommend it. It's expensive for what it is and obviously cheaply made."
43147,1,not bad,"I've had this product for over a year. The lights worked great for occasional use, but are VERY HOT, producing a lot of heat, but also a lot of light. Sadly, they both stopped working at the same time. Replacing bulbs didn't solve the problem. Obviously, poor quality/wiring. Useless now..."
43177,1,Infanticide,"I never thought of myself as squeemish, but after only 100 or so pages I had to put the book down in disgust. How many more babies will be killed in this tale? It's not only the death of infants and young children, but the gruesome, heartwrenching detail in which they are described! Enough!! I definately would not recommend this book for other mothers."
43187,1,Boots not up to par!!!,"The overall look and construction are fine; however, when used in wet conditions (as jungle boots are to be used) the material on top of the sole began falling apart right away. It appears to be either a real poor quality leather or even cardboard. Boots were used at the Boundary Waters in Minnesota. Drained well and otherwise held up very well. If you plan to use them one trip these are probably worth the cheap price, but you'll need to put a shoe insert inside increasing the cost some what. If you plan to use multiple times, my U.S. Army issued jungle boots from 1985 held up great, so go the extra expense for regular issue jungle boots."
43195,1,Waste of these actors,"Not as fun as the first one, many ""why did they do that?"" moments. While the effects are mostly great (kind of iffy on the cyclops), the acting is not there, a talented cast is wasted, teams are just thrown together, and what could be mindless popcorn entertainment just seems a waste."
43209,1,Decent but Loud,Pushes air decently and works well horizontally. However the amount of noise it creates (even when my system is idling) is way above that of the other 5 fans in my case.
43247,1,Grandma's diary,"Unless you want to read someone else's grandma's diary, pass on this one. It's entertaining if you are interested in the midwest during the depression (from one person's perspective) but I just couldn't finish it."
43339,1,this doll posse needs to be run out of town.,"this cd just sucks, its even worse than the last. too long, too boring. who wants to lission to a song thats 1;39 seconds long? not me. I can understand why she is on a different label every cd. I dont think i want or will ever buy another tori cd agian. i gonna sell this as soons as i can. get 5 dollars for it, if i am lucky.The first 3 cd were so good, if not great, under the pink is my favorite. but this...it was a hard and painful thing to lission to, how sad, such a waste of such a gifted singer songwriter. better luck next time. this has to be one of the worst releses of the year....pretty good year, no tori, not for you. sorry."
43357,1,Made for TV movie,If you like Lifetime movies on TV this is your cup of tea. Ok plot and acting but belongs on TV not as movie.
43417,1,Fits but not perfect,"I purchased this product to fit my Penguin Bio Wheel 200. As the details say, it fits. However, it is not like the original part: the magnet is much shorter. As such, it does not move as much water. I now have to purchase the correct part from somewhere else.Two stars because the description is not wrong but no more than two stars because the description is misleading."
43471,1,Disappointing,This product didn't work for me. I felt no difference in the sensitivity after applying it.
43481,1,Great frisbee for super fast dog,Great frisbee love the ematerial but I needed a much larger slower flying frisbee for my dog to actually catch it.
43495,1,Sennheiser RS 130,"I bought these headphones based on a CNET review and some of the reviews I read here at Amazon. For the most part these headphones received very good reviews but for my tastes there was too much hiss during quiet moments in movies or between programs.I also experienced discomfort wearing these headphones. The charging mechanism places two metal bands on the inside of the headband directly on top of your head. I could feel these metal bands pressing on my head whenever I wore the headphones.I'm returning these and trying the Sony IR MDR 4000. From what I've read, IR headphones do not produce hiss."
43580,1,Once again,"Hollywood remakes a movie that did NOT need to be remade. And, ""best"" of all, we get to see Paris Hilton on the big screen (like we're not saturated enough with this empty headed no talent on cable TV, regular TV, newspapers and magazines).When will the torture end?Wonder if there are any ORIGINAL scripts with interesting ideas that Hollywood can buy and make a movie of? (How about adapting books to the big screen?)It speaks volumes when the only movies coming out nowadays are numerous sequels and remakes featuring nominally talented and overexposed Hollywood starlets.Nah, I'll stick with Vincent Price's masterpiece."
43653,1,DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!,"I HATE TO SAY IT BUT THE ONLY THING INTERESTING ABOUT THIS BOOK WAS THE COVER AND MAYBE THE FIRST CHAPTERS. IT STARTED OUT GOOD, BUT AFTER THAT I HAD TO FORCE MYSELF TO CONTINUE. ALL JOKES ASIDE IT WAS LIKE PULLING TEETH. IT WAS TO MUSHY, BORING, PREDICTABLE, AND WAY TO MUCH BABY TALK. THIS WAS MY FIRST WOODIWISS NOVEL AND IT WILL PROBABLY BE MY LAST. THE ONLY REASON I GAVE IT 1 STAR IS BECAUSE ZERO WASN'T AN OPTION."
43663,1,Big Disappointment!,Can hear CD spinning which interferes with sound playback. CDs skip with slightest movement of player. Headphones are of inferior sound quality. No AC adapter included.
43678,1,Save your money,"I was disappointed in this book. Nowhere does it tell how to actually do this Rapid Eye Technology. It just tells you to buy her videos or to see a ""technician."" I'm giving it two stars instead of just one because the author sounds like a genuinely good person. She describes how she fasted and prayed and asked God to give her a technique that would help people. She also includes several chapters on what she calls life skills. But overall, when I buy a book, I expect to learn something I can actually apply, not just a sales pitch."
43731,1,Wretched,"Insipid, overproduced pop dance music. Why can't Sheena sing in her real accent? But the cover's nice enough."
43737,1,What?!!!!,"This book pissed me off!!!!I didn't get that the character was suffering from a mental disorder I just thought he was plain...straight up stupid. The book truly made no sense to me. The only reason I finished the book because the back drop was my home Jamaica, Queens and I love to read books that take place around my way.Please do not waste your time with this book. I can't even explain it it was so....uuuggghhhh!!!"
43739,1,Worst physics textbook yet!,"This book is highly unorganized, important concepts are all over the chapters. The illustrations are bad, distracting and most of the time, not descriptive. But the worst thing is at the end, some review questions and exercises require students to know some equations that are never touched in the book; some questions require you to know some Algebra 2 level stuff and some concepts are not taught."
43779,1,There are better books on Hitler and the Holocaust.,"I give Rosenbaum credit for rejecting the apologists and the psychoanalysists, and reaffirming that Hitler was responsible for his actions and was a profoundly evil person. However, his book falls far short of explaining the Holocaust or why German people helped Hitler to carry out his final solution. At the end of this book, Rosenbaum has failed to ""explain"" much of anything, but has done little more than to merely ""describe.""I recommend Leonard Peikoff's _The Ominous Parallels_ for a truthful explanation of the Holocaust, and and introduction to the only philosophy which can prevent it from happening again."
43887,1,rip off fins,save your money these are junk so uncomfortable so large will not stay on first time out one fell off and i spent the rest of my percious fishing time looking for ths junk but i evetually found this oversized junk
43950,1,The Trials of reading this book...,"I guess the title should have been my first clue. This book cannot be compared to ""Bridget Jones"" in the least! The dialogue is among the worst and most stilted I have ever read. Tiffany's men are introduced 3 to a chapter, and I found myself absolutely sympathizing with them, poor as they are portrayed to be. I could not stand that woman either! No wonder she is 37 and single. Stay away from this novel; if you pick it up expecting a hilarious frank narrative by the likes of Helen Fielding, you will be as disgusted as I was."
43954,1,Terrible!,"When I read the synopsis of this book, I was expecting something similar to Gary Hardwick's books. But, what I got were a lot of characters, a muddled-at-best plot, and a totally boring read. Gary Phillips had way too many characters in this book and trying to keep up with them felt like a job made for a police officer, NOT a reader. This is my first AND last book by Gary Phillips."
43981,1,A dissapointment,"I was able to get into the first couple chapters but after that I thought the book was very boring. One night I read ten pages and had no idea what I had just read. I have no idea how this book made the Oprah list, because every book I have read from the book club has been great."
43986,1,Disappointed!!!,"I was completely disappointed with the story, and all aspects with it. The characters were mediocre at best, and the storyline was soooo boring! I did not see any point in finishing the book, but did just so I could give it the benefit of the doubt. I should have dropped it when I had the chance, then I would not have felt so depressed at the end. If you want a good Oprah book read Where the Heart it, by Billie Letts, and you will not at all be disappointed."
44017,1,This Rear Window needs to be tossed out the rear window!!,"I always loved Jimmy Steward, and Grace Kelly was a princess of an actress, but it was Hitchcock who made any of his movies the superb classics they became. Please, please re-release the original, and I will be first in line to buy it."
44128,1,Not for us.,"I would recommend books by Kevin Leman to this book by Crabb.Crabb did not seem to spend very much time on real-life examples. Leman uses real-life examples to teach.Crabb rarely ties back to biblical sources. Leman relies heavily on biblical sources to support his concepts.After this book by Crabb, I felt the improvement in my marriage was related to both my wife and I disagreeing heavily with Crabb, rather than learning something new.After reading Sheet Music by Leman, I felt the improvement in my marriage was related to greatly improved understanding of my spouses perspective on marriage because of using tools from Leman's work."
44146,1,There is fascinating stuff but too far and few between,"I was frankly disappointed by this book. There's too much ""filler"" and too much stuff that is too specialized. For example, I'm not a ""Three Stooges"" fan and the FIRST entry was some weird detail about their antics. Besides, this is TV- it's not real. To be ""odd"" I think it should probably be ""strange but true"". Several good topics were about the messages in records, the idiot savants, and some others but on the whole the book was fair and the listings quite arbitrary. I do like his Woody Allen book, though."
44188,1,Sheets arrived with a stain!,"These sheets are of good quality material, but after opening them we noticed a one inch diameter stain (possibly a blood stain) on the fitted sheet. We needed this sheet immediately, so we laundered it with various stain-removers. The stain remains. The question is ... how could a ""new"" sheet have a stain on it. I would not buy from this vendor again."
44262,1,A book version of Beauty and the Beasts....,"Having been one of those fat tourists who's enjoyed both Arizona and New Mexico;I was taken by the photos as soon as I opened the book.They are good and brought back many memories.As to the two guys;I'd never heard of them,maybe they've just been out in the sun too long.It's like when the cow kicked over the pail of milk,it sort of spoiled everything.I guess that was why the warehouse was dumping copies of the book for $2.00 .The drawings scattered throughout were good.I would like to make one suggestion,if I may.If the book is ever reprinted;maybe it could be done in Sanskrit ,that way it wouldn't detract so much from the photos."
44297,1,"good pan, bad handle",This is a nice pan but it has an awkward handle. A saute pan needs a handle capable of heavy lifting and this handle is too flat for bigger hands (mine) and probably not shaped well for smaller hands either.It is a shame that the handle designer might have been using a Korean handle design because I have not seen this handle used by Cuisinart before. I was clearly disappointed.
44314,1,this album stinks,How could you like a band that the lead singer screams?. The lead singer yells profanities throughout a lot of the songs and the sound from the guitars is not that good.
44315,1,loud... and that's about it,"Limp Biskit's appeal is somewhat confusing. While they seem to be able to write intelligent lyrics, they mostly scream them unintelligibly. They're certainly hard and heavy, but almost totally lacking in melody. Crossing rap with metal was a good idea, but, frankly, this is a poor execution."
44342,1,what a bore,"It's cute. It's funny. That's it. The jokes get old after awhile, or they've all been shown in the commercials. It isn't anything new, the story line is dull simply because you know that they're going to end up happy in the end. The only thing that the movie has going for it is characterization, particularly that of the father. The funny parts, on second glance, are merely amusing, and nothing more."
44522,1,Irritating,"At 368 pages, this book is 368 pages too long. I see it is number 255,203 on Amazon Best Sellers and that just about sums it up.I read this book about 15 years ago and I am still amazed that I finished it. I remember thinking, it can't be this bad when so many people like it and say it is funny. Well, it was that bad and I don't know what they were thinking.It certainly isn't funny. Nasty, stupid, boring are the words I would use.On a scale of 1 to Catcher in the Rye overrated, I would give this a Catcher in the Rye."
44532,1,Disappointment all around,I used these bowls with a two year old that I nannied. The lids are really hard to pop on and off and the suction base only stick for the first few minutes. It does say not to microwave them which is something I overlooked on the first use and the rubber on the bottom warped and the bowl was ruined. I do admit that this was my fault in over looking but the fact that you can't reheat the food in them makes them really inconvenient to use unless you only want to serve fruit in them which who buys bowls with that soul purpose?I usually avoided these bowls and would have tossed them if they were my own.
44547,1,"Yuck,no thanks","All these songs are violently average with bad singing-but hey, it's Led Zeppelin,what else did you expect?"
44598,1,batman joker,"this batman is not very well made. batmans cape is of poor quaility fabric. both charaters have only minimal articulation, head shoulder & hip. if you want the joker to complete the justice league collection this is the only way i know to get one.... sigh..."
44620,1,Icky poo!,"Well, I have been fooled a few times by reviews on Amazon and this happened to be another. The reviews mention a good citrus scent, good cleaning and hydrating power with an economical price. Upon getting the bottle, I opened it up to try the stuff and was unpleasantly surprised. First off, the citrus smell is more a floral vomit citrus smell. I decided to push through it but five days later I found that the smell went from that to a very rancid version of it. I could not believe it, how could this go from bad to worse? Well, it did . Stay away!"
44684,1,psp dosen't read it,this thing dosen't work. even when it is fully charged the psp won't even recognze it so it won't charge AT ALL.do not waste your money on this product.
44725,1,I can't believe the positive reviews,"This book is a slow and painful read. The author is hopelessly self aggrandizing: he says at one point, ""They were going to make me a millionaire."" Wow! A guy at the center of a global conspiracy involving trillions of dollars and they were going to ""make him"" a millionaire. Not give him a million (which would still be paltry considering...).What? were they going to pay him $100,000 per year and after a while that would ""make him"" a millionaire. This guy was a mid-level manager at best. From there he constructs his grand delusion. Only people who already believe the the U.S. is the cause of all evil in this world (college students, professors and incomprehensibly naive adults) could actually think this book represents reality. If in fact we are enslaving the world to us through debt, then we are enslaving ourselves to the Chinese. Think people think."
44759,1,GameLink 400 Backordered or Recalled,"GameLink 400 Backordered or Recalled?? First let me say that the GL400 is very hard to find, and if you read Monster Cable press they would Like you to believe they sold out. Yes they just blew out the doors at 50.00 EA. I don't think so!! I found the GL400 at Frys and had to return not one but five of them because they will not stay connected in the rear of the PS2. Every other cable out there fits well so no the problem is not with my PS2."
44846,1,Not quite as good as Fever.....,"Though 'Fever' is also riddled with filler, this is not Kylie's best work. The only truly good track is ""Chocolate."" ""Slow"" is kind of fun (and extremely bizarre-it sounds like video game music), too, though. ""Red-Blooded Woman"" is alright, as well. Another problem is that the album version of ""Chocolate"" isn't quite as good as the radio edit-it is longer and has some pretty effects in the background, but it just...doesn't sound as good. It's slower and there's less background music-it sounds more raw. ""Sweet Music"" also offers minimal enjoyment, but as a whole, this really is a poor album. ""Can't Get You Out Of My Head"" is guiltily addictive, but nothing here is nearly as good as that or even Fever's other hit, ""Love At First Sight."" This is a pretty mediocre album and frankly, I'm surprised it spawned any hits at all. It provides a few mild guilty pleasures, but overall she has far better."
44856,1,bad quality on this pendant,this is the second black onyx pendant that i have odered. the first one was a beautiful 5 star item. my son misplaced it so we ordered it again because it was such a nice cross. this time it was very poor quality or else just a faulty item. two parts of the black onyx fell off the cross.i would like to have it replaced if possible. patty wade
44872,1,DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS VENDOR!!!,"If you could give this less than one stars, I would. I ordered the item, waited, sent an email, got some lame excuse as to why it hadn't come, wrote again, got some weird email saying it the vendor was unavailable. But throughout all this I never received the item. I finally had to cancel the credit card purchase. Whatever you do don't purchase anything from this vendor unless you like to throw money out the window. You would be better off burning your money at least you would get the benefit of the heat. I am not the first person to have this experience, I should have read the reviews first. I am just angry that Amazon has continued to keep this vendor on their website."
44885,1,Poor quality,"Be cautioned- these cd's start delaminating and skipping after a few months if used for music. CD's that were kept in jewel cases and never used after initial recording had problems. I haven't used them for data, but I imagine they'd be no different."
44916,1,refrigerator water filter,The filter fit perfectly. However I am concerned that it is a refurbished filter and not actually new. The instructions for inserting the filter did not match with the filter enclosed. The filter had a piece of foil on the top. The instructions said the plastic adapter on top needed to be removed before inserting in the Ge refrigerator. I just removed the foil and it fit fine. It also did not have the date sticker refer to in the instructions. I wrote the date on it in marker.
45021,1,Why does everyone find this to be so incredible?,"Okay, the cd is not THAT bad. But green day has lost whatever it was that made them green day in the first place. They dont have the attitude anymore, they dont play music that defines them. Its like they did this because they realized they needed to do something different to get noticed. And hey, they achieved that, so good for them. But for people like me, who appreciated who they were before, and now have to deal with it playing on every radio station and channel on tv atthe same time until I want to blow my head off, its not so good. Listen to some real ""concept albums"" done by some real bands, and see what musical genius is. Just cuz MTV says theyre gods now doesnt mean that they are. Calm down people."
45048,1,MOST OVER-RATED BAND OF ALL TIME!!!,"If you like this cheezy brainless pop, then YOU are the american idiot!"
45072,1,Obscene slang defined,"I returned this book after I accidentally discovered that it elevates obscene slang words by printing and defining them. For example, the words,""f_ _k"", and ""motherf_ _ ker"" are both defined. What purpose can this serve, other than to encourage children to use them, with the justification that, ""they're in the dictionary""? An encyclopedic dictionary should PRESERVE language, rather than flow with changing mores."
45222,1,Junky...a waste of time,"I had high hopes for this book from the reviews I've seen here. I went out and bought the book and was highly disappointed with it. The ""artwork"" was very uninspiring.If you're looking for a good book on collage, one thing is for sure - this isn't it. Look elsewhere. I was thinking of giving this one away or tossing it and I've NEVER thought about doing that to any book before.Is there a ""no star"" rating?"
45261,1,Dissapointed,"Look I love U2... I love the Joshua Tree Album. I thought this was a great Documentary. BUT...It was a total mis-use of the DVD medium. If you are looking to create value for your fans (and get them off napster) and decide to release a DVD why not use the medium to the fullest. Build a DVD with all of the videos complete (no interview interruptions). Create a second audio track with the audio interviews. And create Bonus tracks with the video interviews. Add another bonus of the full audio tracks... and you got a great package for your fans.Instead this was a DVD that was laid out like a PBS special. Granted it was a good PBS special, but it was not what I was buying. I watched this DVD once... and I will probably not watch it again... When I buy a video, I want to watch it over and over again... you can't do that for a music DVD that has songs and videos continuously interrupted by interviews.Don't buy this unless you expect a documentary."
45297,1,Destiny Unfufilled,"I have had this CD for quite some time now and it just does not grow on me. The OK songs include ' Through With It Love', ' Free' and 'Cater 2 U'. The song ' Girl' reminds me of 'Me, Myslef and I, which i don't particularly like. Their songs are lyrically challenged. (e.g.Cater 2 U - 'Let me help you take of your shoes, untie your shoe string...' & Girl- i'm your girl you're my girl, we're all girls don't you know that we love ya.....) please how tacky. The CD is rather boring actually, with 'Lose My Breath' being the only catchy track. The others are just 'filler' tracks in my opinion. It is good to see the group re-united but this disc is not good. Let's hope that they release some remixes to these bland tracks. This attempt was just not good enough."
45310,1,thankful for opinions,"I have not read this book, but recently saw Pastor Hagee on television and was intrigued by his comments on Jewish persecution throughout history. I immediately came to Amazon.com to read reviews for his book because I knew I would get opinions on both sides. Thanks, Amazon.com, for giving people the opportunity to express their opinions. I have chosen not to spend time reading this book, since it definitely seems to be very ""controversial""."
45319,1,Dated material and bad media,"While the educative quality is good, it's totally ruined by the failure to update either the material and, particularly, failure to use decent media quality. The digital/print material is a bad copy job, the digital/audio material is sadly dated and poorly constructed, and the many of the discs don't function because of poor quality control.I'd look elsewhere for material and not waste my money here. The frustration is simply not worth it."
45362,1,Bad Editing ruins a book,"I picked this up hoping for a light mystery and found my enjoyment ruined by the misuse of a few words. Another case where trusting a computer spell checker just isn't safe-- have a friend read the last draft or get a better editor! The funniest? She never expected to benefit from her Uncle's 'largest'. (that's largesse) Other than a couple of spectacular malaprop's, this book was a decent mystery. Were the travel tips accurate? Someday I hope to find out!"
45393,1,review of blush with death,"i love easy reading mysteries....this book and author has all the potential but disappointed me with ""blue"" words, and sex scenes that really didn't need to be put in..i was very sad that it was in the story line...i won't buy the series...too bad i loved the idea of the character's skill in aromatherapy"
45426,1,"This ""tome"" of meat cookery not realistic for everyday cooks","Considering how hefty this volume is, I was hoping to find recipes to produce well-cooked, flavorful meats with nearly any cut of meat I had in my freezer, using everyday ingredients I would normally have on hand. Not necessarily so. This is more of a gourmet's cookbook for those with time to cook, access to big-city delis and a liking for fussy sauces. Example: Puebla-Style Tongue in Chipotle Chile Sauce; Cured Pork Loin Roasted with Parsnips in Maple-Vanilla Sauce; Caribbean Pork Braised with Limes and Oranges; Sauteed Filet Mignon with Corn and Chile Cheese Sauce. There is some basic information on how to best cook some cuts of meat, but not enough to justify the price of the book, and the recipes rely heavily on the fancy ingredients. As a side note, if you don't like to include alcohol in your cooking, this is not the book for you! The recipes and tips on cooking pork ribs were good."
45469,1,Rightline Gear 100S10 PackRight Sport 1 Car Top Carrier,It was too hard to pack either on top of the car or packing things in it beforehand and THEN trying to hoist it on top of the car. Strapping it tightly was also difficult. I would NOT buy this product again.
45541,1,sailing shoes,it was sent fast but the cd case was broken and there were numerous skips i am in the process of trying to return it
45616,1,Not the quality expected from Butler Creek,The hinge broke on my 2nd outing to the range. I noticed the cap was VERY tight to snap shut and makes me believe that it could have been a defective unit altogether. I have many other items from BC and this is the first to disappoint me.
45646,1,Ritual de lo Habitual (2 LP 180 Gram Vinyl),"I bought this 2 LP (180 gram vinyl set) hoping to discover new treasures within the music of Ritual de lo Habitual. However, the hack mix and mastering job on this 2 LP set is appallingly bad! It's uninspiringly flat; no life whatsoever!!! All of the nuance from the high-end portion of the mix is all but gone! What happened to the cymbals? The syllables from the vocals? The coiled wire of the bass strings? It sounds like an AM radio mix with some low end! Terrible. Don't buy this, stick with the CD."
45702,1,Very 80's,"It's a fine album if you are a fan of 80's music. It is reminicent of Bryan Adams and other 80's groups. I did not like it due to the fact that it didn't seem so original in sound or feel. But, if you are an 80's rock fan, this album would be a good purchase for you."
45745,1,"OH, COME ON!","From what I can remember about this failure of a television series was that it could never settle-down and decide if it was going to be serious or funny.The fact is...it was supposed to be serious, but turned-out so badly that they decided to laugh along with the audience and make in tongue-in-cheek.The ending has the two leads turning into bunnies...right?Or did I dream that?I've tried to ""bury"" this in my memory cells.Nice ""Box Art"", though.Where's ""DARK SKIES'"" box set?We get this crap and no ""DARK SKIES""?"
45761,1,Game Will Not Install,"I am running OS X 10.7.3 and the game will not install. I have contacted MacSoft so we will see if they can come up with a solution. I would not recommend you buy this product if you have a newer Mac. This game will not work with Lion. Below is the response I received from Technical Support:Unfortunately, Wheel of Fortune 2nd Edition is not compatible with OSXLion. When the game was developed, Apple was using what were calledPower PC processors. They have since switched to Intel processors, andran a program called Rosetta to allow PPC software to continue to work.Unfortunately they made the decision to remove Rosetta from OSX Lion.Because the box was printed between 2003, it does not reflect the change.Destineer/Macsoft SupportDO NOT BUY IF YOU RUN LION ON YOUR MAC!!!"
45767,1,Way to long and drawn out!,"I purchased this movie on DVD with high expectation from Mr. Perry. The only good parts of this play were when Mr. Brown came to the hospital. The nurse with the crazy speaking was totally ridiculous to me, I was so annoyed with that. Unfortunately not everybody can pull off stage plays and the woman that did the young man's mother, didn't do too well as far as I was concerned.Lastly, there was no Madea. What is up with that?I will continue to support Tyler Perry, he just needs to take some time and do it right."
45778,1,SWAT,"A waste of Colin Farell & Samuel Jackson's talent.A lame action film with PG13 violence, PG13 gangstas and PG13 language. Unconvincing nonsense that marginally passes the time, with your diet coke and sweet popcorn!"
45907,1,Too Predictable,Not a bad beach read but nothing in this story is unexpected. I didn't really connect with the main characters. I was interested by the description in the supernatural aspects (the lights) it seemed like a mystery/love story that may have been unique but instead was a way too predictable love story.
45916,1,Didn't notice a difference,"I like Aussie products and they smell great tooWhen I got this in the mail, I was excited because I thought hey who doesn't like softer hair? and so cheap too!I used it for about 2 weeks and noticed that even though it smells like coconuts, it didn't do very much for my hair like I expectedInstead of soft and sleek as I was expecting, it was more like salt water hair lookI will still use it, if I want to appear like me and my hair have been to the beach but for shine and sofy and sleek I like the Dove hair serum they best"
45922,1,"IF YOU LOVE TO WASTE MONEY , THEN THIS IS THE BOOK FOR YOU!",this is one of the worst books i've ever bought. if you have ever read Fangoria magazine you would have gotten better pictures and more information on mr. carpenter. how can a book like this not go into detail about carpenters famous movie scores! the book is not complete for they don't even mention the made for tv movie ELVIS he made with kurt russell.better information could be obtained from dvd production notes.somebody please write a fitting tribute to a great director.
46053,1,my thoughts,"I thought it would be really cool to be part of a society that wore red hats in public. Being part of a club where one could identify another club member because they are wearing a certain item of clothes while in public, fascinates me. But then I started reading the book. I found the characters non-believable. The rules of the club, do overs and make overs were just too restrictive. Life is not about squashing dialogue with your friends because you are too uncomfortable or too polite to say what is on your mind. The scene about catching Harold in the act truly stretched my imagination. The amounts of money thrown around boggled my mind. And the ending? It reminded me of the last episode of Seventh Heaven."
46137,1,"Flat characters, bad science, weak, unbelievable plot","Sphere is the same as all of Crichton's books. A group of people go into a novel environment (lost jungle city/dinosaur inhabited island/spaceship under water) get chased by monsters, everything blows up, solving the problem.The science in Sphere is highly suspect, the characters are flat, the plot is unbelievable. After years of students telling me how great the book was and not being able to read it, I finally forced myself to get beyond the first couple of chapters. The story didn't get any better. I still didn't care about the characters. The plot was almost page-by-page predictable.Forget this book."
46218,1,Poems about fat grandmas and baby poo,"There are great books about -- and for -- babies and toddlers out there, with appropriate, enriching vocabularies and great humor. This isn't one of them. Try books my Mo Willems, Shel Silverstein or Anna Dewdney if you want fun stuff for kids this age...This thing was given to us as a gift. Thank God, because man, I wouldn't buy it."
46248,1,Thank goodness I borrowed.....instead of bought this!!!!,"More of an outline than a real story, this very short, fluffy read is a real disappointment. She offers us nothing new with this....it actually seems as though she whipped this one out in a weekend by just thinking of the basic plot of previous books like Zoya. Very shallow, even babyish writing here, no depth, and really no interest overall, and certainly no surprises....why is it that nearly every Steel book has a heroine who is pregnant and has no clue about it? Her shorter books are her worst...although, I remain a fan of her storytelling talents......they just weren't evident in this one!"
46281,1,This album is loaded with crap,"Go made a pathetic album. Starting with ""New"" and culminating in a horrendous remix of ""Magic Carpet Ride"". The entire album is loaded with crap. The only saving grace for this album are the two singles from DJRAP and Natalie Imbruglia. This CD is only a reasonable buy if you are someone who loves to listen to a lot of trash."
46405,1,Unsafe,I purchased the giggle ball and gave it to my 9 month old son. Within a week he had broken the plastic attachments off and put the colored beads into his mouth. I pulled them out and took it away right after. I would not recommend this toy to anyone.
46568,1,"Poor Quality, dangerous and will damage vehicle","Item is composed of very think tubular metal connected by far to thin of bolts. It was not properly assembled, scratched and dented my car and I returned it as I felt the likelihood of it failing while driving was high.I would strongly recommend not going cheap with something that could cause serious harm or injury if it fails."
46589,1,** Pure Garbage **,This stuff is absolutely HORRIBLE. Do the board members of these companies actually taste the garbage they sell?Pure garbage.
46593,1,"Demeaning, dirty sex scene.","I enjoyed the demeaning and dirty sex scene at the beginning of this film. My god, imagine if Kurosawa had introduced one of his movies with two gangsters getting their kicks in the middle of central park from two ""wigged-out"" white girls. Man, and they call Kurosawa a master. Apparently the great works of James Toback have gone completely unnoticed by the filmgoing community. It's a shame really. Here's to more ""wigged-out white girl-on girl in front of gangsters in a park"" action. Ahhh, now off to film school with me so I can mimic the greats."
46686,1,Fat Lip,"My father bought this for my daughter, he thought she would like it, and she did. But the first time she caught it she put it in her mouth (as all 10 month olds do with everything) her lip was sucked in and caused her to bleed and get a fat lip from it. Not great for the age range little tikes reccomends, better for older kids."
46695,1,Weak on Diesel,"This book is incomplete, vague, and generally weak when it comes to the diesel system it purports to cover. I'm having trouble finding a better book, however."
46713,1,SHE IS A PHONY.,MAUREEN SALANA CLAIMS MS CAN BE CURED BY B12 SHOTS. I HAVE MS. SHE IS JUST OUT TO MAKE MONEY.
46724,1,Not what I expected at all,"These don't really look like what is shown in the pictures. They are very wide so unless you have gigantic legs they tend to just fall down around the ankles, 3/4 buttons fell of within seconds making me wonder if they were even attached to begin with, shipping took 3 weeks, quality is generally bad. NOT recommended."
46725,1,LOW capacity,"I had read the reviews and just hoped I didn't get a duff one like some of the others. Guess what? I got one that will hold a charge for 24 hours, unlike the factory original that works for 3 or 4 days! Don't buy this one. Get the all white one. Having said that some have complained about that one too...maybe you just have to keep buying until you hit a good one. No doubt for the price of the ""real"" one you can afford to try a couple of times! Good Luck."
46793,1,lame toy-not fun at all,"after seeing numerous commercials my 2 1/2 year old asked for this toy which she got as a present - she loves playing with the care bear figures but don't waste your money on this toy -its not even that its not worth the money, it just isn't fun - the castle tops fall off, the care bears don't stay on the little pegs, the sound effects are totally lame, the swing falls off, there's really no room on it to play - my daughter was sooo excited when she unwrapped this gift but has had no interest in it since as she's discovered all its faultswe do have wish bear's little house which is a little better - it has a couple chairs to sit in, a little stove, a little fridge - still not great but better built, more fun and more worth the money"
46854,1,doesn't fit my 2006 Toyota Highlander Hybrid,"Does not fit my 2006 Toyota Highlander Hybrid, despite what Amazon says on their web site. It's more than an inch off in both dimensions, so it's not even close."
46943,1,Sucks and blows!,"God, this movie is painful to watch! This is a major disappointment. Picking up where the previous film ended, THE SEARCH FOR SPOCK is plotless, slow, boring, and, in general, a complete waste of film, money, time, and popcorn.Even the reincarnation of Spock at the end can't save this cinematic death-trap. I'd rather date a Klingon than watch this."
47009,1,Poor quality!,"I bought two sets of these towels to use for guests. Towels were thin, edges frayed in the wash and they don't absorb like they should. Washed several times and they have continued to shed lint. Would not recommend these towels to anyone. Good price, fast shipping but not a good product."
47010,1,Not worth it,"I haven't used these yet, just washed them yesterday. EVERY single item in the set has fraying around the edges, some of it really bad (the complete edging coming off). I've had better luck with towels from Walmart. NEVER have I had any towels fall apart on the first wash before like these. I can only imagine what subsequent washings will do. In fact, I haven't even seen this from old towel sets I've had for many years. Very poor quality!!"
47025,1,You get less than what you pay for,"The first set of towels had to be returned as the sewing around the circumference of the towels was poorly done. Long strands thread were exposed, the type that would lead to the towel unraveling. However, the color across all towels was the same.Called Amazon service and in less than a week a new set was received. The exchange was quick, painless, and free.The second set were sewn significantly better, color was true, but as in with the first set, slightly lighter than what was pictured. However, it's close enough to my existing stuff to be acceptable.The towels aren't as plush as my mid-grade towels from BB&B;, but then again, I paid the same price for two entire towel sets from Amazon as I did for one bath towel from BB. You get what you pay for, but they're good enough.Edited 9/6/210 after the first wash in a front loader, the hand towels started to come apart. Apparently, these towels dissolve in water."
47026,1,Frayed when washed,"The towels arrived packaged nicely but when I washed them, all but one of the towels came out of the washing machine frayed! The texture is nice and fluffy but the edges are now frayed."
47030,1,dissapointing,"I was so surprised to find out that these towels were not very absorbent at all, especially after all the reviews. I bought hese for my son, for his apt. when I went to visit , I was quite surprised they turned out to be so nonabsorbent."
47032,1,"Luxurious, yes. Absorbent, not so much.","I ordered two sets of these and when they arrived I followed the directions exactly as to pre-laundering them etc, etc. They are certainly good looking, thick towels. BUT, and it's a big BUT, for some reason or other the towels and washcloths have a tough time absorbing the water when towelling off...much less than a regular run-of-the-mill towel. For such thick towels I'd expect them to be far more absorbent than they are. So, bottom line, they look good, feel good, but aren't anywhere near as effective as other towels that I've used. Would I buy them again? Nope."
47071,1,"Good for one thing, Action. Not acting, not plot - action","Sorry folks, you may love the movie and you may, like me, even want to watch it over and over but it is NOT a great movie. The direction is marginal, the plot is poor and in Pan and Scan the movie is worth maybe one full watching and toss it but.... in DVD with Home Theater and Wide Screen the movie's only claim to fame, tornado power, shines. It is not that they tried to increase anyones knowledge of tornadoes, if experts were used much they must have been ignored alot, but the shear power displayed is exciting and thrilling to watch. This is one of the movies you buy to show off the system, not to watch from end to end. If you have a DVD, consider it, if you are considering it in VHS just head for the local rental place to satisfy your curiosity."
47093,1,look for a better product,I purchased this for my three daughters hoping that one of them would be able to handle it. It never worked from the start. We set it up and turned it on. It made a lot of noise and the pads didn't pick up there steps. The quality is just not there.
47111,1,Rejecting Rowenta,"I had heard of Rowenta irons some years ago and always felt that they were ""top of the line"" in irons. Thus, when I needed a new iron, I ordered the one from you. Much to my dismay, the iron did a very poor job of properly ironing linen clothing, of which I have a large amount, being a resident of New Orleans! Also, much to my chagrin, it SPAT water, even at high levels of heat.Thank you for your prompt service in handling this return...Diana Parham"
47207,1,So HARD to talk on.,"I bought this phone as a Christmas gift for my daughter and I was so disappointed. She, nor I could even talk on it becuase of it's odd shape! You can't hear the other person talking because of it and they can't hear you! It just felt so awkward. Plus, it's like trying to put a puzzle piece together when your trying to hang it up. Do Not Purchase!"
47241,1,Teaching Mrs. Tingle,"I did not like this movie much at all. It was not boring, it was just so stupid. The one good thing about the movie is that Mrs. Tingle represents every teacher that you despised, and on that level I liked this movie. On every other level the film failed miserabley."
47338,1,Beware this Filth !!!!,"This is without doubt one of the most unspeakably filthy albums of all time. Their song ""Milk"" is one of the most heinous acts of criminality ever released on to the human race. Satan himself could not have written a filthier tune. Stay clear of this album, and this band, like the plague. When people hear this music coming from your stereo they will desert you.you have been warned."
47377,1,GRK HandyPak 100,"The product is great, but unfortunately the T-25 Bit that the website and the container label explicitly state is included was missing. It is disappointing that the seller chose to remove it. Now I have to spend the money to buy the bit, which by the way, is not cheap."
47405,1,Nicholas & Alexandra,This book has such small printing that it is unreadable. I can't imagine Amazon letting this go on. I wound up getting the Kindle edition. Do not get the mass market edition.
47417,1,Give me a break !!,"All too often these days the conspiracy buffs are pimple faced kids. They were not there, did not see the events, and for sure they know NOTHING about physics, aviation, space, nor ANYTHING AT ALL ABOUT HISTORY.This book is a waste of your money. Instead, watch a historical video of any Apollo mission, and you might begin to understand. Go hear on of the Apollo guys giving a talk about, then you will learn something."
47427,1,"It's not funny, it's sad",This was a horrible movie. It wasn't funny at all and both the guys die of cancer at the end. I give it 1.5 stars cause at least it had good actors in it.
47441,1,disrespectful,"this alternative mickey mouse squeeking rapper immensely exagerates fictious tales of murder and rape, meanwhile claims to be the white representation of hip hop, the truest, most profound expression of feelings we posses.peace,2"
47453,1,"White trash ""one hit"" artist of the year","I give Em credit for his flawless timing, but the lyrics are inane and offensive. After listening you will realize his sole intention is to ""p*ss the world off."" He rhymes pretty well and has a few digable beats, but overall the album isn't innovative or catchy enough for me to want to play it again. After this album Em will find himself flipping burgers back in Detroit."
47473,1,just really bad,I have never seen a worse movie than this!!! Not even close to funny!! I can't believe the actors agreed to be in this movie. Im glad i didn't have to pay for it or i would want my money back!!!!!!!!
47478,1,The worst purchase I have ever made.,"I ordered this great Item and what I got was a Item that was a bright ""PINK"". This does not work for me as I am a guy going on vacation from Iraq. I was going to were this to go see a girlfriend that is into Butterflies... she is not into men dressed in bright pink little girl looking things. I advise everyone not to buy anything from this seller."
47495,1,Baby One Time Part 2,"This album just shows that Britney is musically illiterate. I mean, Oops is just a rehashed reedited version of Baby One More Time. By the cheeky title, it proves that she has done it again - had her brilliant production team redo the song that made her famous and exploding onto the charts. The rest of the songs are okay except Satisfaction, which got a funky cover , but other than that, there nothing to write home about."
47528,1,Oops!... I Wrote The Same Record AGAIN!,Britney spears' album sounds almost like a replica of ...Baby one more time! and what's with all the weird talking in all of her songs!
47626,1,Times have changed,"I only bought the book because our book club chose it. I saw the animated film version years ago and as I remember it was very effective. I only read a few pages as I had no real wish to read it knowing what a gloomy tale it told. From the little I read I could tell it has become somewhat dated as communism is no longer the dire threat to western civilisatiion it was when the book came out. Of course, the corruptive influence of power is ever with us as is totalitarianism in various guises around the world. And I do think George Orwell did pigs a disservice; they are fine animals and as far as I know they have shown no signs of wishing to rule the world."
47628,1,quite interesting,"This book treats a very interesting issue which is, in my opinion, still very current. A revolution with a totalitarian regime following afterwards was and is still very likely to happen today. the book gets partly boring, that is in the middle of it when it is described how things get worse for the andimals but nothing actually happens. I think it is useful and important to read the book, but it is not to be read if you want something enjoyable."
47706,1,what?,What I thought N synk was where my dirty dishes were last spotted.where are they. I sure didn't clean 'em.
47724,1,Unbelievable Garbage!,"Unfortunately, NSYNC is not up to par with the Backstreets thistime around. Where ""Millenium"" had heartfelt (albeit corny)ballads brimming with beautiful harmonies, ""Strings"" is loaded with cheesy drivel. Where the BSB had shallow but catchy dnace tunes, NSYNC has wannabe hip-hop influence that would be laughable if they didn't sound lie they were trying so hard. It seems like NSYNC wanted to broaden their audience with their second offering, as well as separate themselves from the Backstreet Boys. Well they certainly have done the latter. While BSB might be a manufactured teenybopper act, at least they sound good half the time. NSYNC trys to act all down wit' it an' ""yeah, we cool...the only comment I'll make is that Bye Bye Bye is a very good song. The melody is great and does not get old. The words are shallow as ever, but catchy enough that you learn to ignore them. END"
47744,1,When did The Spirit J*ck*ffs ever make a record?,"Triple H: N'SYNC should be called XTINKT! Shawn Michaels: You got that right Triple H! Triple H: Is it me or does Justin look like Kenny of The Spirit Squad. Shawn Michaels: Yes and he sounds like him, a wuss who would get beaten up by D-GENERATION X! Triple H: Also, Bye Bye Bye and It's Gonna Be Me are as bad as eating a rotted tuna fish sandwich. Shawn Michaels: Also, Steve Miller should sue these losers and Left Eye's estate for stealing Space Cowboy from him! Triple H: What next, Bratney Sneers calling herself The Gangsteress of Love. Shawn Michaels: We don't have to worry about XTYNCT anymore as they are disbanded, especially after Lance admitted to loving things who had last names like Clark, Cheney, Embersol and Parry. If you are not down with D-X, WE GOT TWO WORDS FOR YA(crowd yells ""S*CK IT!"")!"
47792,1,Thin on plot and chills,This movie was a big disappointment. I should have learned my lesson years ago that I should ignore the critics and pay attention to moviegoers reviews on online sites. This movie has about two pages of plot which is dragged out for a full length movie. It isn't scary. The creepy atmosphere gets tedious as the plot doesn't move along. The supposedly scary moments are old hat and just get boring with repetition. A loser.
47795,1,would...,I would give this 0 stars if I could but amazon doesn't have it available. This is the WORST movie EVER. Stupid and retarted. This movie is NOT even worth a rent. Don't waste your time.
47802,1,These digital binoculars are a nightmare!!!!,"DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM...you would do better just throwing you money out of the window. I was so excited to take some distance pics and tried to upload to my computer (XP) and then i got a message ""device not found"" even though I had loaded the software. Well, then I went to the bushnell site and went to the trouble shooters section where i found instructions on how to load the more updated drivers...well that didn't work either....i spent over 3 hours fooling around with this stupid set of binoculars...now, i am ready to throw ""them"" out the window."
47910,1,Stick with the Exner and colleagues series,"I have read and used a number of Rorschach scoring and interpretive guides and I feel that the pedagogical value of this book is on par with it's monetary value. As other reviewers have commented, this text is out of date. I also noticed that the case example towards the end is wrought with scoring errors. I purchased this as a brief guide for students in clinical placements, but I am now sure it is better that I summarize the contents of the Exner series for them. I don't recommend this text for anyone who actually uses the test."
47926,1,a life lesson,"This was one of the best movies!! 6.0 rating is way to low. The concept was wonderful, the Queen was brilliant and the supporting actors were magnificent. All inter-weaved to tell a tale of living life to the fullest. If this movie doesn't make you want to get off your butt and take that hobby to the next level, tell that person you admire that you love them or see that place on earth you want to visit,.. then nothing will. Thank you Queen and LL for another great movie from you guys. You again didn't have to flash breasts & booty, curse constantly or do the ""hollywood"" thing to your movie to deliver an inspiring story, a life lesson, a blessing. God Bless You Both."
48050,1,If I didn't have an imagination this would be good,"While this collection does provide some insights into late twentieth-century coutner-cultural movements, the work selected is more indicative of their faults rather than their strengths. The volume amounts to very little more than page after page of narcissistic ramblings from individuals too lazy and caught up in being an ""artist"" to take the time to revise and hone their work. While political and/or revolutionary poetry, with a strong eye toward all the insipid isms of our culture, is needed and welcomed there is no need to shun craft and artistry, or even-gasp-tradition, for the sake of ""saying something."" The lines in these poems are bland, they more often tell than show, the imagination is rarely challenged. If you must read this book focus on Sapphire, Ai, Norman Mailer, and Williams and skim the rest."
48172,1,Reads like a boring police report,"A dark alley, a stationary car, a gunshot... and the London police officer Toms is lying seriously injured on the street. Immediately his colleagues of Scotland Yard start a large-scale search to find the perpetrator. But when they finally find some important clues, the most difficult is yet to start: finding the evidence. Only one question seems valid: ""What should be done about criminals whose guilt is known but whom the law cannot touch?""The opening of this book, where police officer Toms is getting assaulted, has a lot of potential. Sadly enough, none of these possibilities have been explored in the further development of this rather plain story. It reads almost like a boring police report. Characterisations of the main figures are nowhere to be found, apart from some dry factual descriptions. The revengeful ending is a real bummer and has nothing to do with the story-line."
48193,1,Does Not Attach to My Gracco Stroller,I have a Gracco stroller and this umbrella does not fit on it...I've bought it and could never use it! Sad...

48204,1,DECEPTIVE PRESENTATION,"My intent was to buy an 8"" set and a 9"" set of cake pans as a gift to my daughter. (both sizes 2"" deep)The error was my own, but the presentation made the error understandable.The two different sizes were posted on different pages - making comparisons more difficult. I thought it odd that the smaller size was more expensive than the larger size. I did not realize that it was not even for one set of two until my daughter kept insisting that she only received one pan. I was paying more [...] and only getting one pan. Why is one smaller pan more expensive than two of the same but larger pans in the first place? Now, if I order another pan I get charged for shipping again. It isn't going happen. Following is the heading as displayed on the web site:Wilton Aluminum Performance Pans Set of 2 9-Inch Round Cake SetNew: [...]Wilton 8-Inch-by-2-Inch Round CakeNew: [...]"
48213,1,Give this book a pass,"I generally enjoy Marlene Suson's books, but I don't know what happened with this one. I couldn't make it to 100 pages before I put it down.The themes in this plot are so tired - the independent, take-over American girl who disdains English society and teaches everyone how ""superior"" Americans are...the evil stepmother. When the heroine decided to teach the Duke his responsibilities, I decided it was all too much for me. The characters are not especially likeable or realistically drawn and in the end, I simply couldn't believe in this romance. I'll wait until her next book and hope for better."
48241,1,Piece of junk!,"Summary: WORTHLESS TOOL! Like few other reviews have mentioned, Cobra Auger does not have a handle so it is very difficult to keep it in place and the plastic tubing is worthless because it breaks easily.Detail: So the story goes... I have clogged toilet, after reading reviews I decided to take a chance on Cobra Auger to 'do the job'. As soon as I stuck it in the toilet, gave it a few clock wise rotations, it got stuck and would not come out. With a little bit of struggle, the cheap plastic tubing broke off and NOT having a handle did not make my life any easier. After 10 minutes of struggle and few more broken plastic pieces I FINALLY managed to pull the auger out and the best part is 'TOILET IS STILL CLOGGED!'. I am putting this broken worthless tool in the garbage and heading out to the box store to buy something sturdy!"
48413,1,pitiful,"I'm only seconding what other reviewers have already said, and that's that this is such a pathetic outlook. One gains ""power"" thru whatever means, and then what is there? Quality of life? Yeah, right. Pitiful.This is a textbook for [people] who think it will help them become winners. They'll only get in deeper. They'd be wise to try some other path to fulfillment."
48426,1,shoulda woulda coulda,This book is old old old! I should of checked when it was first published. Practically all the information in it is outdated and poorly written. Oh well........
48449,1,Very Misleading,"I was very disappointed in this product....not the product itself but the hype about the feeding program. I assumed 100% of the dollars spent which was $60, went to the children. When I received the product there was a tag on it that indicated only $20.00 went to the children...where is the rest of the $$$!!! AND the bag was made in CHINA --- which was insult to injury. Knowing all that, I would have sent $60 to the org and fed three children vs one and forgot the bag.I sent the bag back over three weeks ago and still have not been contacted or credited the money ... Amazon and World Food ..shame on you!"
48457,1,Easy to make - and very dry,You just throw this in the microwave and it's ready in 60 seconds. The drawback is that it is dry and essentially without much taste. Also the consistency is very slightly rubbery.
48489,1,Change of Command,"I'm *so* glad that my local library had this book available to checkout - I would have been very annoyed to have bought it in hardcover.The book starts off well, with an interesting whodunit? of who ordered Speaker's murder but quickly disolved into a series of plots that seemed to have little to do with each other.And just when things seemed to be wrapping up, <THE END> arrives, leaving one to go HUH? what happened?I'll buy this book when its sequel (actually the rest of the book) shows up."
48490,1,"What Potential, and yet a Failure","The storyline in and of itself is an interesting, Silent Hill-ish, storyline. I have no problems with the storyline. What gets me is the fact that it has terrible physics. First. It had much to offer, but the very fact that the camera angles are naught, well then, you get the idea. Camera angle manipulation is very important, at least for me, because by using camera angles, you can see and do things (like examining clues, studying hallways, combat, etc.). But when you can't, like this game, it is hard to work the game. Second, the use of tools, healing potions, etc. is also very complicated. You have to do hit buttons while trying not to get killed. But usually you do end up getting killed simply because you can't do two things very well at once. That's why I have a problem with this game. Maybe you yourself could work these problems, but I have a hard time doing so."
48540,1,Unimpressed,"I found 'Scent to Her Grave' an unsatisfying read. The story moved slowly and was filled with cliches and cheesy sentences. Example: page 34 ""As I slid behind the wheel, I thought I caught a whiff of danger on the wind."" What does danger smell like? Pure cheese. I liked the descriptions of Gull Harbor, but at times it seemed like too much side information was given.The characters weren't developed very well and I wasn't engaged enough to care about what happened to them. I had to force myself each time to turn to the next page. When I got about 60 pages from the end, I couldn't do it anymore. I started skimming until I found out who the killer was and then I put the book down."
48636,1,"A Bizarre, Disturbing Movie Experience","Sorry,but I do not see what would make this movie 5 stars. It was creepy, and the whole time I thought, ""Should I be laughing or taking this seriously?"" It was just too weird and unbelievable. The thought of Norma Desmond and Joe Gillis actually having a relationship is difficult and even painful to think about. Thankfully this film was made in a time where the romantic interludes were kindly left to the viewers imagination. I forced myself to imagine that there actually was nothing physical between them; that way I could get through the movie.I guess I don't deal well with such dark films. The only thing I liked about it was Gillis' narration. Overall, I felt both the lead characters too strange to relate too or to understand. I cannot recommend watching this film, except to watch it as an example of Hollywood at its extreme weirdest."
48715,1,Mediocre at best,"This is a sequel to horror movie that wasn't even all that good (or all that scary). This is a movie with possibly the worst ending a horror movie could have. This is a movie with no suspennse, no surprises at the end. This is a movie that's main characters are so uniteresting that you find yourself hoping they'll get axed. The most interesting character in the whole film is the bartender at the hotel played by Jennifer Esposito. Of course Esposito gets little time in the film, being only a minor character. This was not the worst movie I've seen, but it is definitely near the bottom of the pile."
48718,1,Watching this makes you dumber!,"It was terrible! The writing was bad, no creativity and the most predictable garbage I have ever seen. And what high school graduate isn't going to know the capital of Brazil and if they didn't, don't you think some one is going to tell them. I wasted 90 minutes of my life for this garbage that doesn't even deserve to be a TV movie on lifetime."
48740,1,Disappointed,"The sweater was ultra light-weight and basically useless for warmth value. It is well-made, but not of much value to me."
48762,1,too thick and highlights flaws,"I don't recommend this makeup. I am a very youthful looking 32 (no ""fine lines"" yet) and this makeup made my skin look terrible. It's too thick, to start with. I tried applying it with a brush and with a powder puff and neither worked well. It highlighted every small flaw and looked too thick and ""makeup-like"". If you enjoy the look of wearing thick foundation, I guess this product would be good. It created an extra layer which creased as the day wore on, making it look like I had wrinkles where I normally don't. Also, this makeup has a shiny look to it.As an alternative, I recommend one of the ""tinted moisturizer"" type products, which are just a light touch. If you have nice looking skin, but just want an added touch of radiance, this product won't be right for you. It's better suited to the type of women who wear way too much makeup."
48810,1,I've Been Had,"I purchased 2 books on nature printing...NATURE PRINTING WITH HERBS,FRUIT AND FLOWERS and NATURE PRINTING 30 PROJECTS ETC.Silly me, I thought these were 2 different books but alas they are the same exact book page for page printed under different titles.Isn't there some kind of protection for customers concerning that...don't get me wrong I love the books but I wasted money...one would have been enough!Elizabeth F. Broberg"
48953,1,Don't be fooled!,"I picked up this book thinking that it would be fun to read about Leif Ericsson and the Vikings, and imagine my surprise when it turned out to be about some Italian and Spanish guys who got to the Americas 500 years later! What a rip-off!!So, don't be fooled, this book is not about the men who found America, but about those who came later and conquered it."
48973,1,nice pix - lousy narrative,"I am very disappointed by this book. While the pictures are plentiful and striking, the information in the book is essentially useless. While the authors make a valiant attempt to cover a breadth of species, they do so at the expense of providing any depth beyond what you might expect from your teenager's research report. The vast majority of photos are extreme close-ups of the blooms - great if you're looking for a coffee table book. Since there are few pictures of complete plants, however, the photos do not really aid in plant identification. Finally, a casual read uncovered three typos - all of which would have been caught through a spell check. I'm left thinking the authors were more interested in making a quick buck than making a quality contribution to the science and methods of orchid care."
49065,1,7001 Resumes,"This is one of the worst resume books I have ever seen! It is poorly written, formatted atrociously, resume examples are awful (and there are no where near 7,0001 examples). Don't waste your money! I'm sorry that there are no options to give this a minus star rating."

49087,1,OK BUT NOT TO HIS POTENTIAL,"I think that this album was ok but if you look at all his other music including belly soundtrack and his first two albumz this was nuthin the beats were wack compared to everything else and the lyrics were ok but not good enough if you really want a good X album go for ""ITS DARK HELL IS HOT or ""FLESH OF MY FLESH BLOOD OF MY BLOOD"" those are very good i got em both"
49300,1,Dissapointed,"I love Swiss Army Knives but this one is hardly anything to get excited about. I read that it was 3.something odd inches, longer than the original. But what it didn't tell you that it was as bulky as ever. I expected the same size as the traditional army knife, just longer. If you want something to put on your keyring don't count on this."

Though I enjoy tracks such as ""Ghost in the Mirror"" and ""Long Way From Home"", most of the rest of the disc is just plain mediocre. Most of the songs simply collapse under the immense weight of Payne's dark, foreboding and pretentious lyrics. Musically it ranges from clever and melodic to morose and dull. After purchasing this cd when it first came out, I gave it many listens but for the most part it has remained on the shelf. Frankly, Payne's overwrought, hair-metal vocalizing hurts as well. Asia's earlier effort ""Aura"" was a far better effort and has aged well. It's great to see John Wetton, Carl Palmer and Steve Howe back in the fold. Hopefully, on their new cd, Asia will again give us the classic, prog-pop sound that made them a household name over 25 years ago!"
49513,1,An absolute waste of time!,"What is the deal here? Why does everyone love this movie? It sucked! The music is depressing, the story is absurd, and Jack Nicholson did not deserve any award. To tell you the truth, this movie shouldn't have even been released! WHAT IS THIS FILM'S POINT? Sorry people, but the guy who gave it one star is the only one here who knows what he's talking about. As for the rest of you, who knows?"
49538,1,Cute but darker than depicted and too tight,"When I received these, I noticed that the sneakers seemed quite a bit darker than depicted on the website. They also run a bit small. I should have ordered a half size higher. There was also a loose thread on the pair I received. They looked cute, but just did not work out for me."
49624,1,"Great buildup, great letdown.","Iggie's House begins as a pleasant read with an easily-accessible character and believably enjoyable high-jinks as Winnie grapples with the racism she didn't realize existed in her town, in her parents, and in herself. A moral could be smoothly inserted without even seeming terribly pedantic. However, the final few chapters, suffer a tremendous breakdown.Blume chooses to treat the reader as an untrusting parent would treat an irresponsible child by not explaining any meaningful rationale behind the various parties' decisions regarding moving away. Moreover, the physical telling of the conclusion involves surprisingly messy narration and unfocused dialogue. The nice setup is unfortunately wasted."
49678,1,NOT FOR THE PMP EXAM,I can not believe that PMI recommened this book for preparing for the PMP exam. It is not worth the money unless you know absoultely nothing about PM.
49699,1,Waste of time & money,"The first Hangover was not too bad, this one was just terrible. The acting is bad, the script is bad, everything about this movie was just bad. Do yourself a favor, don't buy this movie as it is a total waste of time and money."
49717,1,"eastwood great as always, everything else.....eh","Being a big Eastwood fan, I bought this unseen and watched it for the first time last night. Eastwood is great, as always, although his cop character in this one displays a little more vulnerability than most of his tough guy roles. Locke's acting is over-the-top and annoying, as always. This is a pretty good action movie, but the ending is ridiculous. After blasting the hell out of this bus, the cops are just going to let Eastwood walk up the steps of city hall with a gun tucked into his waistband? I mean, no one says a word to him. And on top of that, he takes the assistant d.a. hostage and Locke's character shoots the police commissioner dead in front of the entire Phoenix police department, and nobody does a damn thing? Are you kidding? I'm all for suspending a sense of reality when watching action movies, but give me a break. This ain't no academy-award winner. Eastwood is the only thing saving this turkey."
49750,1,BIG disappoinment....terrible ending,This book had potential but the writers blew it!! I felt like throwing the book across the room. There was way too much jumping around from character to character. While I love a surprise ending this one was poorly written and was just a dumb way to end it. The ending didn't figure in well with the rest of the book...it was more like they were tired of writing and just pulled something out of left field and stopped.Don't waste your money buying this book...borrow it if you can find someone that wasn't mad enough to throw it away or check it out from your library if you insist on punishing yourself.

49859,1,A real disappointment,"First and last of Rosenberg's I've read. I was surprised by the clumsiness of the plotting and characterization. The supposedly professional heroine has little to recommend her. I got to laughing on each new occasion that she forgot some critical fact or forgot to do something important--not looking at subpoenas, stuffing envelopes into her purse and forgetting about them. Even the police do a lot of ambling around, taking their time to deal with important tasks. It's not much fun to read a book where you're a step ahead of the supposedly competent characters throughout."
49888,1,"Mindless, pointless drivel....","I picked this up thinking that it might be the same caliber of movie as Judd's Double Jeopardy. It's not. Not even close. As the movies crawls along, many character developments, (or lack there of), are glossed over without ever being explained. It gets to the point where you don't know why they are doing what they're doing, nor do you care. Do yourself a favor and let this one sit on the shelf."

49928,1,"If I could enter fewer than 1 stars, I would",I have a small CPA office. I bought one HL-5140 in January and another one last week. The first one died yesterday with a broken part; the second one died today after printing one page at a time. Brother HQ apologized several times and offered to send me a reconditioned printer--for the one I just bought last week.I knew the printers were disposable and that printer repair places will not work on Brother printers. But I did not expect the printer to die after a week.Luckily Best Buy is across the street so I bought two Lexmarks. I hope they will last until April 15!

50029,1,Interesting but not memorable,I enjoyed it and thought it would be more useful for older teens but it was an easy read and along the teen genre.
50063,1,Worst of the StarBlazers Series,"Let me start by saying that I have watched the original US Star Blazers (series 1 and 2) when it was televised, and now I currently own all 3 series. There are a lot of reviews about Series 1 and 2 already, my summary on those is that they were as good as I remembered when I saw them televised - good drama, good story, somewhat inconsistent yet decent animation (excellent back in those days - yes I am that old). But when I started watching Series 3 and have viewed most of the episodes so far. It is BORING compared by far to Series 1 and 2. The voices of some of the main characters have changed to be more ""wimpy"", definitely not the voices of heroes that are suppose to protect the Earth. Most of the episodes are drawn out and lack any real plot. There is very little relevant story connection between this series and the others before it. You will not be missing out on anything about Star Blazers by skipping series 3, the Bolar Wars."
50090,1,Worst album EVER!!!....,"let me first say this, Roots is basically Paul Simon's Graceland, except nu-metalized. these guys went to south america, cut a couple of terrible tracks with ""natives""?, then filled the rest of it out with generic nu-metal crapola with that guy from Korn cut and pasted into the mix for good measure. this is a particularily bad example of the vile and thank-you-god-in-heaven-it's-dead Nu-metal genre-meaningless pissed off lyrics, excessive ""guesting"" of other crappy artist, bad guitar, bad sitar(!), and the inclusion of anything to do with Korn, all presumabely done with band members sporting loinclothes and Rambo style striped face paint. the biggest waste of time, money, and matter. Its a shame that these guys are living and breathing and taking up space and resources that someone else could be using. A real bummer."
50099,1,Too much hype- it was awful!!!!!,Way too much hype- this movie had only a few funny moments- but was so not worth watching!!!!!
50100,1,Dire,"This aint no comedy. A foul mouthed tepid load of rubbish. Lazy drugged up slob impregnates drunken beauty queen. She obviously traumatised by the experience tries to bond with her childs father. But he is a lazy useless monosyllabic bore.There is no chemistry between the leads, the main male character is particularly reprehensible, an introverted immature layabout. The script is terrible, not a single person laughed in the theatre I was in watching this dribble.How any one could call this a comedy is beyond me, movie making at its worst, one of the most horrible theatre experiences of my life."
50163,1,Not Shelter at their best,"I have 2 Shelter albums in addition to this one, and the others are way better. They are much more hardcore and less poppy. When I got this album I was expecting ""Perfection Of Desire"", but the songs on ""Mantra"" were much slower, happier, and lighter. If perhaps you thought Shelter's older stuff, or Youth of Today was too hard, then maybe this album is for you; otherwise stick with their older stuff."
50220,1,Defective,"Sabre IV by Excalibur Electronics - I was very disappointed in this product. When you move a chess piece, you gently press it down on the square, move it, and press it down again. This is how the computer registers a move. Some of the pieces would not work, even when pressing them down several times. This is one of two computer chess games I have had to return to Amazon (see my review of the Saitek Kasparov Alchemist)."
50239,1,It had to happen...,"After two fine efforts we get this horrid banal mess. Hyped up the wazoo - and delivering a moaning, grumpy drone with barely any melody. Oh sure, there is an occasional moment, but overall this thing is horrid.Get the other two ""Pablo Honey"" and ""The Bends"" and join me in hoping the hype stops and Radiohead get their act together for the next one."
50322,1,Not a very fast moving movie,I love rowing and watching movies which involve rowing. This movie which is specifically about rowing falls short to capture my attention.
50450,1,Pathetic,"I returned this DVD. Reason? Same as so many others. The commercials. Yes, you can fast forward through them, but what nerve from Universal! The only way they're going to stop doing this kind of thing is if we all become criminals and download movies illegally, OR deprive Universal of their money by not buying their products. I saw Animal House, I liked Animal House...but not enough to surrender my hard-earned cash for a DVD full of advertising and a snapcase full of coupons. That's a bum deal. Maybe if it cost $3.98 it might be a different story."
50548,1,I don't care how this book ends!,"OK, the first 100 pages were great. It was a very gripping story. But when the tension ended, the plot ended. Who cares if Jean wanted to make shoes? Who cares how many stops her plane made, going all over Australia? Who cares what the people looked like, and what they did? If I wanted a book called ""People and Places in Australia,"" I would have checked it out. Meanwhile, back in the outback, there's no plot left. I can't make myself finish it."
50562,1,"hook, line and sinker?","How can the Handmark (formerly Palmspring) company sell this as full retail product specifically labelled on the outside as NOT shareware, and nothing printed inside says otherwise, but after installation it says it is a limited use DEMO which you have to pay more to unlock? If this is not bait and switch, then is it not fraud? Why isn't there any review online warning other new victims/buyers? I must not be the only one who has experienced this, as Handmark NOW has an ""instructions"" web page (after the fact again) that says its newest ""Gulliver"" version ships Demo!"
50563,1,Great watch but high maintainence,"THis watch is sweet first of all, but...after about a year the band needed replacing. No problem I thought. Well not very easy to find. The replacement band was about 40 bucks and had to be ordered through Chase Durer. Then the battery started going dead...also no problem I thought but Chase D says that you can't replace it yourself it must be done through them - that would have been another 50 bucks...but I did it myself anyway and somehow the dials got a bit off-centered and figured that it probably cost even more cash to get that fixed. So all in all I spent 250 on the watch and found that maintaining the watch for my lifetime would probably triple the money already spent - no thanks. Great watch but high maintenence."
50630,1,Very cheap quality videos,"I can't believe how amaturist these videos are!! The concert DVD is acceptable, but the regular videos look as if they were made by a 10 year-old kid. Not for 10 seconds the camera stays still, always moving, pathetic lighting, horrible backgrounds. I kind of regret buying it, but at least I can still listen to the music. Anyway, enjoy."
50668,1,"Good coffee, but after 2 years it's on the fritz.","We have had this appliance for a little over two years, and it appears to be on the way out. It starts grinding on it's own, and conversely sometimes does not grind when we tell it to. It appears the circuitry now has problems.While we are very happy with the taste of the coffee, it is difficult to clean and we are going to try something else next to see if there is a better product for the money."
50684,1,worst design ever invented,"The engineers that designed this one obviously drink tea!!The grinder is worthless and wastes lots of coffee. Then it gets all of condensation heat so you have a gooey mess.The worst part is the all plastic door. It seems that when it gets hot the latch loosens up, door pops open and water goes everywhere. This problem happens at least 10% of time.Do not waste money on this junk!"
50688,1,Looks Good but...,"This product looks great and makes good coffee. However, it's very cumbersome & difficult to use. In addition to some of the comments in other reviews, mainly the frustration of not knowing how much coffee is left in the pot, it is almost equally as hard to determine how much water is being poured into the machine in order to make coffee (there is no labeling on the outside). When we initially purchased this machine we found it annoying having to lean over the top of the machine to see the labeling for pouring in water (number of cups), now the numbers have worn off completely so it's become a guessing game. It also is difficult to pour water into the machine from the craft without spilling it all over. My husband and I both regret purchasing this product."
50769,1,LAME doesn't cover it!,"I'm not really a fan of ""over the top"" gore or ""blood squirting everywhere everyone's gonna die whether they want to or not"" kinds of ""horror"" films. I can't even remember if I was actually even startled... much less ""frightened""... yawn................. Alexis Texas is kind of cute but not enough to watch the movie again!"
50814,1,Think Twice on Top Release Skunk Trap,"Everyone was entertained on Facebook by the adventures of Pepe the skunk for an entire summer because I could NOT trap it. It had taken over a groundhog hole under my house that I neglected to close up right away after getting rid of the groundhog using another trap. Friends started to doubt the skunk really existed because it took so long to trap it. Finally, after a very resourceful friend added a metal spring to the trap, I was able to capture the animal. I had purchased this trap with the easy quick release on top since I didn't want to come face to face with a skunk, but there wasn't enough snap when the trap was sprung."
50855,1,Decieved,"These are very poor quality flags! The pictures they use to represent them are in no way pictures of the actual flags. I was very disappointed in them and even more disappointed in the way i was treated when i tried to return them (still trying).The company was rude when they answered my e-mail, and the whole experience has left me questioning whether or not i will continue to do business on Amazon."
50943,1,don't waste your time with this product,"I have great Dell 2XXX series machine. EVERY other product plugs into USB and works flawlessly. This one does not. Tech support was waste of time. Said to update Dell USB drivers. Already did. Device is NOT certified by Microsoft nor are the Hauppauge Drivers! Power on the unit (straight out of box) was unreliable. Power Light would fail 90% of time I plugged it in (during ALL those resets tech support tried to walk me through). In a day and age of plug and play and USB2 gear, this product is a joke. Please don't waste your time with it. Install software even thought this was a PCI bus internal! a real mess."
50987,1,Horribly boring and mundane,"I have read alot of books in my 28 yrs, and I must say this has to be one of the most boring I've ever read. Danny is a creep, Ria is a wimp and their kids seem to be rotten. Not to mention the length of the book. It took me FOREVER to finish it and I'm sorry to say that I may never pick up another of Maeve Binchy's books. Stick to good ones such as Plainsong or Gap Creek!"
51062,1,Whaaa.......,"Do massive pyrotechnics, zinging masked invaders, impossible gimmicky flying objects in situational lapses of taste and intelligence, and implausible threats to the nation make a movie? Does peppering this treacle of a script with some respectable actors (and eminently forgettable ones) make a movie? For this viewer the answer is a solid 'nope'! When oh when will Hollywood tire of this hyped disaster concept? This qualifies as a ""must miss"" movie. Grady Harp, July 05"
51072,1,They do nothing for preventing gum disease.,"I stopped using them and went back to floss after using it for 6 months and my dentist did not have nice things to say about my gums. (Run on sentence) With floss, I am much better"
51146,1,Slow and plodding,"The premise was an interesting one, the delivery was long and slow. The life and impact on the family at a personal level are the main thrust of the novel.Not my cup of tea."
51148,1,Wrong voice,"Roth doesn't do justice to a compelling concept. His particular voice doesn't sustain the intensity that this story deserves. It's as if Roth takes a superficial, flip look at what requires a consistently serious tone. It's too bad his premise wasn't developed by someone like John LeCarre.I found the book to be a real disappointment."
51166,1,OUCH!!! Don't waste your time on this one,"I have been a Clive Cussler fan for over 20 years and thoroughly enjoyed all of his Dirk Pitt novels. The character development in this story was horrible, the plot was inplausible and hard to follow. I kept reading and hoping that it would get better. The base concept of ""The Corporation"" is excellent, but was very poorly developed and communicated. The authors tried to accomplish too much in the story line without fleshing out the characters. Do not waste your time on this one!!!"
51257,1,Again....too small,Totally agree on the size of the book. It says 8X8 which could be either inches or cm. Was extremely annoyed when I received this book. Great text but would love to have the full sized version. I have ordered this book twice now from different companies and both are small.
51331,1,Trashy but interesting . . .,"As the title of my review suggest, the language is blunt often bordering offensive. However it is a pretty good read. Gives you an insight into charter operations with some hilarious stories (particularly the incident in Saudi Arabia).Not alot of relevance to regular scheduled aviation but filled with insider jokes, tricks and puns.Although there are a lot of typos, it is an easy read."
51332,1,WORST BOOK I'VE EVER READ,"it was just bland and boring, thats all, the plot was ok, but not worth reading. the only reason i'd buy is so that i could use it for scrap paper, or maybe for oragami. otehr than that, its honestly useless."
51353,1,I Was Not Pleased,"The stories in this book are in no way similar to the Fairy Tales I read and loved as a child. The stories in this book are unrecognizable, and a figment of someone's imagination who does not have a clue that Fairy Tales are for children. I will delete it from my Kindle. Amazon should not offer it!"
51423,1,Beyond Dissapointed......,"After hearing all of the positive reviews the ""experts"" gave this(which they usually dont give out alot to comedys) and hearing my friends go on and on about how hilarious this is I went and bought the movie. I watched it once. And thought it was the dumbest movie EVER. My friends were like ""watch it again, the second time wears on you and you will laugh your tail off"". I am 55 min in for the second time as we speak, and I hate it more then I did the first time.I have a huge sense of humor and my fav. movies are Comedys. i was expecting this movie to blow Step Brothers and Anchorman away. I can honestly say, I didnt laugh one time the entire movie.Im not sure where all the great reviews come from, because this movie is a dissapointment."
51442,1,Painstakingly Confusing,"Characters and plots are very confusing right from the get-go, choppy storyline with rapes, incest, lesbianism; all rather confusing. It seems like a story without a real theme to it. Rather disappointed as I picked the book up due to the rave reviews."
51459,1,3 Peace charger set for cingular 8125 not worth the money,"the charger does work but is cheaply made the retractable usb cable stoped retracting with in a few days, also the usb cable is very short works good in the car but as a viable home charger it is entirely to short don't plan on pluging it into a power strip and setting it on the desk and still be able to use it."
51523,1,Signs & Yawns,"The worst movie I've ever seen. I was hoping that Stellan Skaarsgard would take off the yellow suit and burn it, but he didn't. He did however, finally take it off. I wish I never bought it."

51548,1,A good example of a true kung fu movie stereotype,"Everything's here; that dubbed old fart british accent, the moronic dialogue, the grainy picture quality, the bad attempt at ""Jackie Chan"" like comedy, the mediocre 1-step 2-step fight sequences, the badly synchronized sound effects and the classic freeze-the-last-frame-as-soon-as-the-bad-guy-dies routine. There's even a part where they forget to dub in english!! If your on a quest for the ultimate in bad kung fu movie craft, then look no further. If there's one redeeming quality, the actors, who seem to know very little about kung fu, do exhibit some impressive acrobat skills. However, well executed flips, tumbles, and rolls alone don't make for a good martial arts movie. For those who are looking for a little more kung fu authenticism should look towards the more well known actors like Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao, or even Bruce Liang."
51593,1,Did not stop blinking problem,"This product did not solve the blinking light problem with my Nintendo. Perhaps I am unlucky because other reviewers had success, but I would caution other potential purchasers to not get their hopes up."
51633,1,extremely uneven book,"Parts of the book were decently written and parts were so cliche that it was as though the author had dual personalities with diametric writing abilities. Also there were a few inaccuracies (Calling Kelsey Grammar ""Chelsea Grammar"" and mis-attributing an actor from Saturday Night Live to a character that he didn't play) which i always find to be annoying, particularly since misappropration like this is so avoidable...was this book even edited for cultural accuracy? There were several mis-spellings and a few sentences that truly didn't make sense...made me feel like it wasn't worth my time to read something that the author clearly didn't care enough about to polish properly before publication. an amateur attempt at writing, that comes off more like a long college term paper."
51638,1,Abridged!!??!!,"Just so you know: the Oxford World Classics edition of LA REINE MARGOT is abridged. Oxford ""justifies"" the abridged version by saying it's the best known, but I think if MARGOT were as popular as THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO, Oxford would spend the extra money to give it to us in full. I understand things like Readers Digest condensing books for the masses, but shouldn't something as scholarly as Oxford World Classics give us the real thing? What about Dumas fans who want to read his stories they way he wrote them? Most Dumas readers aren't afraid of long books, especially if they've read MONTE CRISTO or VICOMTE DE BRAGELONNE(which is almost TWICE as long as MONTE CRISTO). Unfortunately, the unabridged version seems only available in French. But I'm a biggish Dumas fan, so I read Oxford's abridged MARGOT rather than nothing. It's great, Great, GREAT, but a shadow hung over the entire book making wonder what I was missing. What Dumas-esque character moments did I miss? What details?"
51701,1,Technical topic written in 5th grade style.,"I've read all of Patterson's books so far and have enjoyed most of them,particularly the Alex Cross novels. ""When the Wind Blows"" was a big disappointment. The short choppy chapters began to wear on me and after a while I wondered how much white space was consumed by this technique. I counted 122 pages of the novel's 416 that were essentially blank. That and the double spacing made the book look a lot more substantial than it is. I noted in the remarks made by others that many had read the book in one sitting. That would be easy to do. Ironically, the subject matter in this work is probably the most complex of any of Patterson's works so far, yet the style and the characters were almost disneyesque. I felt as though I was reading a Hardy Boys or Nancy Drew escapade. I hope Patterson will get back to Alex Cross. He did a fine job with that character."
51715,1,"neat concept, poor execution","I read an advance copy of this book and I was astounded by how bad it was. Not because Patterson is a bad writer -- he's clearly a story teller as many of his previous books show. But this book felt like it had never progressed past the outline stage. What struck me about it as I read through one poorly concieved scene after another was how little faith Patterson has in his readers. The book feels really contrived. The horrifying scenes of the genetically engineered children seem like they're only about shocking the reader, not emotionally engaging you in a real story. This book is clearly aping after Crichton's work -- especially JURASSIC PARK and other fantasy/horror thrillers. Unfortunately, Patterson put no heart or soul in this book."
51719,1,The Sexual Story of O,well photographed in some slutty french seaside city but has nothing to do with the original story of o. bad buy If I had known in advance I would not have bought this item
51919,1,not as stated,"Amazon's description was so vague I had to rely on reviews for content. Unfortunately, the reviews were based on the cassettes, not the CD, and the cassette contained the story I sought, but the CD did not. Poor product description on Amazon's part. I'll not be buying from Amazon again soon."
51970,1,"Fans of Lovecraft LIKE revulsion, right?","I just finished it, and feel relief. I hate to leave things unfinished, especially when I've given them so many second chances. It's blue-collar doesn't match the money from the sky, or the shadow out of time.This book was recommended by my beloved paperback eating machine of a grandmother, likely because she knows I like creepy stuff, not because I'm well-read.The content is fun enough, for an 80s story that wants us to believe it's a 90s story, but the style begs so desperately for the 'clever yet not pretentious' badge that it ends up less than pretentious, merely pedestrian.Two stars instead of one because it wasn't bad for its ilk, two instead of three because it wan't as good as it thought it was."
51980,1,Ill Logic. Not enough functionality. So-so software,"Too cheap to return. It is collecting dust, since I need to use native remotes anyway.

52122,1,problems ...,"I've had Systemworks for the past 3 years ... but this was by far the worst experience ... too many problems, i.e can' find a qdcspi.dll - that was supposed to be fixed in the 2001 release ... ??? I've begun experiencing problems with IE sessions ... I use Win ME which is far from being a reliable OS but I know that I haven't had those problems before ... As other people have suggested here ... keep the 2003 version and just sign up for new virus definitions."
52128,1,Good but outdated,"This book needs a complete overhaul.Markets have changed, tactics have changed and the whole internet and technology boom has had a tremendous effect on markets. There are other books on trading strategy that are more current, and ones that focus on specific markets...such as stocks or currencies. You would be better off with something updated. Generally, from a 'big picture' point of view the book still holds up...but you can find general big picture info at the numerous websites offering free education and lessons.A new, up to date, well tested and proven version of this is needed."
52193,1,Beware - Contains BPA,"I opened the package (which arrived quite quickly), and as with all things plastic, I checked the recycling symbol to see what it was made of. To my horror, I saw 'pc' (polycarbonate) imprinted onto the bottom of the container, which means it contains bis-phenol-A (BPA). So, I am returning this item. What a shame. I'll have to look for another one which doesn't contain toxic plastics. They should just make them out of glass or stainless steel."
52251,1,La Cubana 726,"i have owned this dvd for a few yrs and lately have had a discussion about how the three kennedy women are depicted as heroins but have little to be concerned about. i found no heroism in putting up with lies deceit, and affairs other than a fat paycheck should anything happen to one of the Kennedy bros?However, the heroin i supported was Ms Sally Heming, who was property of a US Pres and a woman with whom a US Pres clandestinely raped and with who he produced many children.The strengh with which this young girl(in the beginning) handled the rapes and assaults by a president has to be heralded, and goes beyond proving what so many great black families have had to bear.I am a now a retired atty, from Wash, DC and have met and been befriended by the relatives of Sally Heming, and know for a fact more than this movie will tell.Humanity tops power..All errors are miner but i offer no apologies because i know that THE READERS WILL GET OVER THEM?"
52264,1,Not Satisfied,"For the specs of the Panasonic SL-SV550 CD Player souned pretty good, well CD player, plays MP3 formated CD's & AM/FM radio, however it hasnt lived up to what I expected. First time I ever droped the CD player it snaped open breaking the front latch & the back sensor, taped the back sensor down so now it plays CD's but the lid doesnt close so I keep it in a case or put something ontop of it while playing. The sound quality on the headphones isn't good at all, sound doesnt go loud & you can hear everything going on around you. Also some people said the radio reception was great, well it isnt great but it isnt terrible, but I'm leading more towards the bad reception side. One good thing about this CD player is all the features (CD, MP3, AM/FM Radio) and the somewhat long battery life. Also this CD player is very light. In the end, I wouldn't reccomend buying this CD player to anybody else, find something else."
52314,1,Save your time and money. Not worth the paper it's printed on.,Awful! Very disappointed as the premise and reviews were promising. This book was trite with few insights that aren't obvious.
52322,1,Garbage,"This thing is horrible.The first time I used it, I had to constantly stir it with the provided stir stick for it to blend properly.The spout didn't work at all, maybe if you blended water, but why would you blend water?When it came to cleaning, it was horrible to clean. You couldn't effectively clean the bottom of it, or the spout.Plus when I was using the pulse setting, there was a rancid smell coming from the motor.The 2nd time I used it, I used it for about 5 seconds then a bunch of smoke came out of it. I quickly turned it off, and there was a bunch of burnt plastic. The machine didn't work anymore after that.I bought it locally, so I returned it and got a refund. The customer service person said I was atleast the 4th person that brought it back because of something wrong with it (this is a very small town with maybe 5000 people)They then pulled all of it off their shelf and ceased to sell it."
52373,1,THIS IS NOT A TRIBUTE BUT AN EMBARASSMENT,"Why on earth did they have to make a tribute like this to New Order? This is a mess! This is the poorest rendition of classic New Order songs. They made a terrible mess of Blue Monday and The Beach. The guys who did this tribute obliterated the theme and the groove of the music that made New Order the standard by which every modern techno music writers must aspire to be. The guys who did this tribute were definitely not from that generation. Too bad guys, maybe in the next life you might find yourself in the right generation when the sound was New Order and nothing else compared to it. Maybe then you'll realize what the sound of New Order is really all about. I'm giving it one star cuz it came in Cd format. That's about it. Dont buy this CD!"
52387,1,Would not reccomend,I bought 12 boxes of Sugar Twin from Amazon. It was hard and clumpy where it had been exposed to moisture. The product is good but I would never order it from Amazon again.
52391,1,There is something wrong.,"IT IS A SHAME., ERIC,LEE,DOUG AND RON JUST COULD NOT PLAY WELL IN A GADDA DA VIDA I REMENBER THE ECHO EFFECTS FOR THE DRUMS THAT WAS USED IN THE STUDIO VERSION THAT WAS SUPERB, IN THIS LIVE VERSION THE DRUMS SOUND TOO SILLY, JUST COMPARE THE LIVE VERSION OF GRAND FUNK DRUM SOLO IN T.N.U.C. A BIG DIFFERENCE OR THE LIVES RECORDINGS OF U2 IN UNDER A BLOOD RED SKY SOUNDED EVEN BETTER THAN IN A STUDIO.AND THEY EVEN MISS THE LAST INSTRUMENTICAL PART OF THE SONG, BUT VIDA IN STUDIO SUPERB."
52412,1,Pretty much a miss,"Picked it up at Tower the other day ($9.99),because I like the DMB and now I see you can pick it up at Amazon for a $1.36.At that cheap of a price,that should pretty much clue you in that something was up.Not a very good outing(bad production).Murky.fuzzy.lacking in general fidelity.It sounds as if it were dubbed to death.Were these guys even together in the same recording studio ?DMB is a ""jam"" band, and this album just sounds as if that magical element is missing.When I listen to other DMB albums,it sounds(and feels)like everybody is having a good time.Kind of wooden and by the numbers on this one.When DMB is on ,they are as good as it gets,but when they are off...I wanted to pick up the newer DMB,but since Sony pulled the DRM incident,that album will not be on my playlist ANYTIME soon."
52473,1,Cheap,One week after I purchased this product it started to come apart. It is definitely NOT worth the money. I did not abuse it. I used it as anyone would normally use a mouse pad.
52506,1,Unreliable,"I ordered this DVD player so I wouldn't wear down my Xbox by playing movies on it all the time. I didn't have any of the audio problems that others have reported, however, after about 4-6 weeks of use it just died. I couldn't even get it to power on. If you're looking for a cheap DVD player this will do, just remember, You get what you pay for."
52645,1,Didn't work,"I have NO idea how to use this thing. I wanted to make chocolate bottles, but it didn't go together well whatsoever. Folding it didn't work, so I cut it and that didn't work either. Oh well!"
52683,1,Better Books out there,"The problem I have with this book, as well as a lot of other Rifkin's books, it's not the message that is being conveyed, it's how it's being conveyed. Rifkin's research style is a mile wide and an inch deep. I pined to have some of the chapters be at least a couple pages longer so there was more substance. He makes wide, sweeping generalizations with the minimum of hard data to back it up.That, in addition to this book now being well over a decade old, makes me very reluctant to recommend. There are better, newer books that have the same point of view that are better written. And this is coming from a reviewer who has not eaten beef since 1997."
52725,1,Can you rate this book zero,"What was Sachar thinking yellow, spotted lizards, black teeth white tongue Mr SIR. And it won a stupid newberry medal. I know kids who have written more entertaining stories."
52736,1,Holes,Holes is an ok book because I found it boring. Stanly Yelnats was charged with stealing a famous baseball players shoes. He is sentenced to go to a camp for punishment. The name of the camp is Camp Green Lake.When he arrives there he finds out there is no lake.As punishment he has to dig a hole every day. He digs holes the throughout the book. To me this is what makes the story rather boring.
52775,1,What a WUSS!!!!,"It got 2 stars because the beginning wasn't so bad but come on...he is still panting after a woman who passed him up not once but 4 times over...and she is betrothed again!!! Vow or not what a loser! I was willing to go along with the story line until he gave up Elspeth and then I say ""forget it...he is a wuss not worth her or anyones time."" And when he learns the cold truth about the other woman (looking like a complete ninnyhead when he hears it) he still doesn't flee to Elpeth's side... Even Elpeth character voices her anger over this.And lastly what was the purpose of getting all these extra characters involved anyways. Who cares about adding the baby, the cat, or the extra kid. They have no point in the story."
52808,1,Could I be more bored?,The author is determined to write one cliche after another.The best I can say about this book is that it is boring.
52862,1,The digital copy is expired,"Well this is a major rip off. I just bought this on on september 17, 2011. When i recieved item the digital copy expired on september 13, 2011."
52877,1,The worst of the Harry Potter Films,"By the time Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009) came along, I was bored with the series. Harry Potter, this all powerful wizard was about a powerful was a wet bag at a sand castle competition. So I did not hold out much hope for this film. The film did not let me down. The film is about running and little else. The must frustrating part was the Hermione Granger assault. Hermione Granger, consistently the most powerful, came over as an absolute wimp and just let the assault happen complete with Bonnie Langford's Violet Elizabeth Bott """"I'll thcream and thcream 'till I'm thick"""" The only sad part is the death of Dobby.It did not bode well for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 which was marginally better than part 1!!!!"
52889,1,"Elefun does not work, do not buy it!!","Elefun simply does not work. The motor is very weak. It is not strong enough to blow the butterflies off the bottom. I bought 3 different ones and none of them worked. I called Hasbro and they sent me one, it does not work either."
52955,1,He Assumes way too much knowledege.....,"With a title like ""Ultimate Beginner Series"" he assume way too much. He is very good and I have other DVD's by Keith. I just wish they would show you the cords in a box like the other DVD's in this series. In this one you are stuck looking at his hands trying to figure out what to play"
53009,1,Its just not that good.,"Well, one thing I will give Otep(the singer) credit is she has a very great growl, other then that it is just a poor quality album. Most of Otep Shamlay(?) vocals are either her moaning or giving us some female wigger rap hooks which makes her sound shameful, the guitarist offer nothing special, no solos, no strong lead guitar playing, bass is just there just really doing nothing, and the drummer is just blast beat yet no substance or quality drumming. Most of the songs try to be strong, plitical and sometimes its, oh, little poor me! writing, and she does it mostly moaning and then yelling and then whining. Overall this is really nothing special, if you want some good female fronted band, listen to Arch Enemy, Angela Gossow has better gutteral roars, Abbott Bros solo. and the bass is hearable and they have a great 2x kick drummer. Or listen to other death metal bands like, Venom, Celtic Frost, Obituary, Vader, Morbid Angel, Soilent Green, God Detroned and Nile instead."
53116,1,Unlistenable - Zero Stars,"Wilco's first album, A.M., is in my top ten list of best rock albums of all time. Although I thoroughly enjoy Tweedy's next releases, Being There and Summer Teeth, every subsequent album after A.M. was a step down in quality - a devolvement into self-indulgent experimentation. The wheels started coming off with Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and then it completely fell apart with this album. It's amazing how bad it is, and I've given it plenty of chances - more than it deserved. To like this album you must like anything that bears the Wilco name. Tweedy could have belched into a mic for forty minutes and he'd still get five star reviews by the hard core."
53122,1,Critically Oversold!,"The critical popularity of this disc is rather mystifying. Its inclusion on many of the ""best of"" lists of 2004 is even stranger. All in all it's just rather dull and badly executed. Tweedy sounds like he is trying to emulate the sort of guitar attack that Neil Young adopts with Crazy Horse, but his playing is underwhelming. He tries to make use of the volume, and the feedback, but it escapes him, and just sounds amateurish."
53136,1,Poor Sound and Not Enogh Wes,"With so much Wes Montgomery out there, I would avoid this CD. The sound quality is poor, and on the Billy Taylor cuts the piano overly dominates. The live set with Clark Terry is much better, but the fifth track in the session is not included."
53168,1,Works ok.... not nearly as much hair as you see in pictures,"It works alright. But my cats don't seem to like it too much, even though I am being very careful to be gentle with it and not hurt them. They purr, but then they kinda squirm to get away as well.The main reason I am giving it a lower rating is that the pictures are WAY misleading. You do not typically get anywhere near that much fur shedded. And if you did, your cat would probably hate you.Disclaimer: this could just be because my cat is a medium-haired cat.... maybe it works better with long-haired cats. However, I thought this product was acceptable, but just mediocre. Nothing to go crazy about..(Mostly, the pictures of all that fur are misleading.)"
53223,1,Worst HP ever!!!,"This unit has never worked properly. First - software won't install properly in either Windows or Mac. I have never been able to use the various software features. Windows fails to recognise double-sided printing (though Mac does). Second, Scanning through document loader always leads to crooked scans. Third, after 6 months, fatal ""printhead has a problem"" arose. Google this and you'll see it's a fatal non-recoverable problem with the unit. Printer now junked. DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT!"
53233,1,BORING,"I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE VERY FUNNY and it was in a very few instances.Overall, I was disappointed and glad it was a short read."
53272,1,"Same ole ,Same ole","Yet another psychological thriller bare of logic. This film comprises of loud noises, loud computer generated screams that are really getting to me and the ever present little girl in a white dress with long black hair over her face efect wich seems to be in every movie nowadays.But it will say that Betsy Bell was tormented by the spirit to such a degre that i felt for her.I wont go into a synopsis of the film because Amazon does it qute well.If you are a fan of psychological thrillers you've probably see this film 100 times before under a different name with different actors if you get what i mean.seriously not recommended."
53275,1,A Sad Story,"The Bell Witch is a legend throughout the Southeastern part of the United States. It is rumored that Pres. Andrew Jackson confronted the entity. Of all the potential stories and variations possible for this legend, this movie obliterated the lore.Many people enjoy the folklore of the Bell Witch and the only known death attributed to a supernatural entity. The movie starts great with good characters, realistic performances, and great effects. About mid-way through, all that changes. Suddenly, the characters fall into aged stereotypes. You will probably already know what those are.The conclusion of the story is utterly predictable. This is a prime situation where they start with good intentions, but fall woefully short of the mark. It's feminism gone painfully awry and you wonder why on earth you wasted 90 minutes when the best part is the first 45."
53318,1,don't bother with this book,"i hate microsoft alot but this borders on ranting and raving. this guy should get a vallium prescription. the book is hard to follow and seems to have been written out of anger alone. dont waste your time and money, use it trying other opperating systems instead. oh and the binding is realy bad, all the pages fell out that realy irritated me."
53349,1,Terrible Book.,"I have never read anything that resembled utter junk than this. I must congratulate the author on his esoteric-convoluted writing style, because it has made understanding the concepts that much more difficult.This book has absolutely no merit what so ever. In fact, this book is so bad, I will burn my book rather then selling it to fool some other prospecting buyer into thinking this is a good book.YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!!!!!"
53387,1,WASTE OF MY TIME AND ENERGY. . .,"I heard such great things about this book- so how could I not read it? Very easily, if I knew what I was getting myself into. I did not enjoy it for one second. I am not in the habit of starting books and not finishing them, and this was no exception but I read it, very sluggishly, just to get to the end so I could put it down. Nothing about it was enjoyable- nothing!"
53388,1,YUCK!,"Okay, I guess I'm weird or something, but I really did not get this book. What was the point, the plot, or whatever? It just seemed like some guy hanging out in Savannah meeting a bunch of weirdos. I can't believe such people like this even exist. This book was so well hyped that I felt like I'd be missing out on something if I didn't read it. Now I know what that something is. Like, maybe a migraine!"
53422,1,"Slight Leak, Auto On/Off No Longer Works","This Culligan filterCulligan FM-15A Level 3 Faucet Filterand refill cartridge filter the water well, but after using it for 2-3 months, It developed a slight dripping leak from the side of the filter (only leaks while the filter is on). Also, the button that turns the filter on/off no longer auto shuts off when the faucet is shut off, So you can end up using the filter more quickly if you are not proactive about the switch."
53487,1,Turns off too soon and too often,"This product's safety feature is overly safe and you can't even warm your feet properly but what it's kicking off...and it takes forever for the sensor to cool to the point where it will kick back on. Not even worth $20, let alone this price tag. It certainly is quiet though....mostly because it hardly ever kicks on."
53543,1,Boring,The trailer looked so interesting. Then I saw the movie itsself and there was nothing anymore that could be added to the trailer because the good parts I had already seen. The rest is pure bordem. Maybe the last 15 minutes deserve 3 stars. Because everything is falling together to have a satisfactory ending. But the rest is amateurish. Two of the girls - whatever the names of the actresses were - were good. Only that their script was badly writen. I hope I will see these two promising actresses again under better circumstances.
53585,1,"Little Richard is fabulous, but the sound is not and it's awfully short","Little Richard had something to prove at the Toronto Peace Festival in 1969 ($14.98; Shout). His last Top 40 hit was more than a decade earlier and he would never have another. But Richard was always convinced of his own fabulousness and knew the world should be convinced of it too. And he ripped the crowd into a frenzy during his half hour set, thanks to timeless classics like ""Lucille"" and ""Long Tall Sally"" -- not to mention a shirt adorned with tiny mirrors and a towering wig. DA Pennebaker captures the moment well, though the sound leaves something to be desired and at 30 minutes this is awfully short. Why not give us three hours of the day-long festival, of which this could be a highlight? On its own, it's just not enough. Visit me at michaelgiltz dot com."
53819,1,not a good choice,This shaver shredded my skin and did a fifth-rate job of actually shaving hair on legs. Would not endorse purchasing this shaver.
53874,1,Waste of time,"As the other reviewers have said, this book has a horrible message. If you're fat, get an eating disorder, and then you'll get everything you want. First, the plot doesn't even make sense, she magically just loses all the weight, secondly the man who really loves fat women and is obsessed about being fit just to hide seems ridiculous, and third, the whole thing is just dumb. This was such a waste of time, I felt like I got dumber after reading it. It wasn't even entertaining as much as it was frustrating."
53880,1,NO NO NO!!!!!!!!,"I bought this thinking it was a ""real"" super audio cd player, boy was I wrong!!! The ONLY difference between this player's reading of the Sacd and Cd layer is that the Sacd area allows more information than the cd layer, otherwise this player gives you no real difference in sound between the two. It took me a long time to realize I was fooling myself into thinking that I was really enjoying Sam Cooke's ""Portrait Of A Legend"" SACD the way it was supposed to be heard. I have been doing a lot of research and found out a player has to have 24bit/192khz DAC capability to even begin to enjoy the SACD layer and this player does not use that method to produce playback of SACD.(If you're on a budget make sure you look for that in the techinal analysis) Once again this is NOT for anyone who wants to hear the true beauty of SACD. I am now about to purchase the Marantz SA8260 SACD player. It has gotten great reviews and was rated ""class A recommended"" in Stereophile magazine."
53898,1,Delonghi garbage,"I agree with everything written about this piece of junk. First, it was sent to me with a defective tank, so that the unit wouldn't even turn on. They sent me a replacement (2 months later). Then it turned on, but wouldn't work - no matter how long it was on and no matter what the temperature or humidity conditions were.I now have to send it back - at my expense - to get fixed. What garbage!!!"
53899,1,Waste of money and time,I bought this book because the title suggested that it would have a good comparison of many enterprise architecture standards available that would guide us to shortlist and then choose one of them. To my surprise I did not find any comparison of such standards. The book lists various standards but there is hardly any specific information highlighting strengths or weaknesses. No doubt that the subject itself is dry but the author does not help to make it any interesting. Neither the book has any flow that will give you structured information nor is a valuable resource even as a reference.I found better information on the internet than that given in this book. I returned my copy back to Amazon.
53942,1,beware,This product has FD&C Yellow #6 Lake in it for those of you trying to live as chemical free as possible.
53948,1,Highly overrated,"I chose to see this film because it is in the list of Cannes winners. While most of the movies on that list are really great, ""Rosetta"" was a big disappointment for me. I consider myself sophisticated enough to enjoy not just the pure entertainment-like moies, but the art movies as well, but ""Rosetta"" is neither of those, in my opinion. I could guess what artistic message is sent to the audience with the use of the shaky camera (maybe the director didn't have enough money to pay for a professional cameraman?), but whatever it is, watching ""Rosetta"" is a very unpleasant experience. The absense of any plot, and the annoingly repetitive scenes make it even worse. I think ""Rosetta"" is one of these movies that pretend to have some artistic quality where there is none. ""Rosetta"" is certainly not one of the mainstream movies, but this fact alone doesn't make it a good movie."
54003,1,Bloody Awful,"This is one of the worst books I've read in the last few years. Someone explain to me just what Pinnacle was thinking when they published this.The writing is at a high school level, full of passive verbs and awkward sentences. The characters were completely ridiculous and not the least bit believable and there are so many of them -- half starting with the same letter of the alphabet -- that you don't know who is talking or being talked about half the time. And to top it off the plot is completely stale and boring.Don't waste your money."
54074,1,A complete waste of time,"If our military was actually run the way Brown presents here, I am moving. Breaking the chain of command is commonplace, as is firing without any orders. The purpose may be to add excitement, but realism must come first. In addition, the characters were less than one-dimensional: two of the three woman characters use their sexual wiles to seduce men (one of them the president!) into changing their minds, and the third is the pregnant mother figure who kisses every man in the book on the cheek. A model looking senator named Finegold? The combat sequences are first rate but the characters need to be real before the story can be."
54131,1,Redbox Rental,"This movie was horrible. I'm glad a redbox rental is only $1.00 per night. Do not purchase this movie, it is not worth your time!"
54134,1,Bombed in the box office for a reason: word of mouth,"This is an OLD script of Sam's, one that he had written during his ARMY OF DARKNESS (another poorly received film)days.In no way does it equal THE EVIL DEAD 2 for ""horror-comedy"". This simply isn't a very ""interesting"" or compelling film, which is why it died in the box office.Rent it if you must, but don't buy it -- and you'll notice that Sam barely appears on the ""special features."" If he really loved this film, he'd be all over the extras like he is on EVIL DEAD 1 & 2.Not this time."
54212,1,The Golden Compass,"I know that most people like the book ""The Golden Compass"" but I hated it. If you like fantacy it's great, but if you dont it is a nightmare. Just to let you know!"
54222,1,Gophers still coming,"I'm not sure if this is working or not. But I had a new gopher mound about 10 feet away from the MoleMover last week.I caught the bugger with a trap. This seems to be the most effective and consistent method for me.Maybe it's my soil; maybe the gophers in my area are deaf, or maybe this doesn't work. Can't say exactly, except that I had a new mound close to the device."
54227,1,Not what I expected,"We have the DaVinci Kalani crib and changing table and both are great and so we decided to get the dresser, it was very difficult to put together and the drawers did not line up properly and were too small for the sliding mechanics on the side to fit in. I wish I could have returned it but it was already half put together by the time we realized it was crap and we couldn't take it back apart without completely ripping it up..."
54267,1,"""Tibetan master"" is a channeled spirit!","Alice Bailey was a disciple of Madame Blavatsky, and this supposed ""Tibetan Master"" is some kind of spirit guide that appeared to her or was channeled. She did not travel to Tibet to sit at his feet, as I had imagined. If you are looking for real Tibetan teachings, this is not it; this is occult writing."
54281,1,Not that good...,"The story is that Rachel and her son from the first Ring movie have moved on to a new town to start over. Then, somehow Samara tracks them down and tries to possess the little boy.In a sense, this isn't a bad popcorn movie. I jumped out of my seat in several places. The problem is that they are cheap scares - on second viewing they won't pack any punch. There are a LOT of shots of water that are supposed to be creepy. Then there are some CGI effects that looked fake and not-scary.My biggest problem with most studio horror films these days is that they have incredibly convoluted plots that make no sense. The audience doesn't try to figure things out because they can't, and then some character explains everything and you wonder how she made that wild induction."
54302,1,Filling neo con agenda or how to fabricate a second Iraq,"Shame on you mr.timmerman, shame on you, its a tapestry of incoherence ranging from half truth to blatant lies...remember those iraqi weapons of mass destruction..."
54350,1,Magnetic Current,Advertising for this book is deceptive. When you click - Look Inside - It shows drawings in the book. The are NO DRAWINGS IN THE BOOK. I was very disappointed with this purchase because without all the drawing descriptions it is very difficult to understand. It was originally written with the drawings included. Not sure Why they printed it without drawings.
54395,1,"Touching, but feels a little too much like ""Accidental Tourist""","As a life-long John Williams fan, I can't help but pick up the similarities between this score and John Williams' score to ""The Accidental Tourist"", both thematically and instrumentally. Start listening to the theme especially and you can't miss it. Don't get me wrong, Horner did a nice job with this and it's a beautiful score, but the Accidental tourist similarities are a little too strong."
54418,1,Agree,"I agree with Johnny, Kira, and Sophie Lee. This is NOT what I think, anyone expected. The story of Sadako had to continue obviously, but there was no story here. That would be why the US remake almost never was. (They had to call in help from Japan to rewrite a new story!) At the turning point (i don't want to spoil anyone), the movie was over for me. I was asking why? Why taint Ringu? For the disappointed, take comfort in the fact that The Grudge 2 is even worse a sequel than this. Rent Rasen/Spiral instead, or the deeply sad Ringu prequel: 0 Birthday."
54440,1,Offensive and Poorly-Written,"I accidentally purchased this book online and, after realizing my mistake, sat down to read through a few chapters. Everything I read was unfounded and offensive, the epitome of partisan hackery. If you value your ability to think freely and interact compassionately with the world, do NOT read this book."
54448,1,I need to return this book for another copy!,"January 11, 2007Greetings!I didn't know how to handle this. The copy of the book that you sent does not have all of the pages and duplicates other pages! Specifically, pages 1-96 are OK. Then, pages 97-160 are missing; pages 224 to the end are missing; and pages 161-224 are duplicated. This is the way it left the publishers bindery. Please contact me ASAP and advise how we can resolve this problem. I need a new copy of this book and you'll want to see this messed-up edition. THANKS! John M. Vente (630) 968-3339"
54499,1,Get another one,"This worked once, MAYBE twice after jiggling with it forever so it was in JUST RIGHT. It was maddening. I threw it away and got one by a different manufacturer (San**sk, if I may say) that works perfectly. I be happy now."
54513,1,Lid does not fit,"Jug is nice, heavy glass. Like the jug. Unfortunately I wanted one with lid, and this lid does not fit. Nice jar, cheap lid."
54580,1,Too Much Noise,"I have now listened to this disc on various players. Obviously the material and the pianist are great, but unfortunately there was a problem in the recording process and this was not cleaned up via a suppressor in the transfer process. As a result there is too much noise, primarily background air, On this disc."
54696,1,Bleh...,"I love Cary Grant, and I love a good black and white. I hate this movie it is soooooooooooooo borning... but maybe that is just because I am a part of the younger generation that demands unreasonable things from movies. This movie drags and drags and drags.This movie is not nearly as good as so many other cary Grant films ( especially bringing up baby, philedelphia story, arsnic and old lace, and charade)"
54711,1,I Like My Cheapie Ol' Sunbeam!!,"I don't need a lot of gadgets, etc. on an iron. I just want it to get really hot! This iron was not comfortable ergonomically. A lot of creaky noises when I used it b/c of all the ""extras."" Retractable cord is a nice idea but in reality is more of a hassle b/c it's another thing that can go wrong! Also, I would not even consider using steam in this iron b/c a portion of it has to be removed in order to fill with water. It's a whole lot easier to just use a spray water bottle. This iron was returned b/c it was not worth the $ and even at a lower price, we do not want to deal with an uncomfortable handle and gadgetry that tends to break easily."
54748,1,BOO!!!!!!,This is the worst movie ever! It was shot with a video camera in some deserted office building. I bought this movie because it was rated 4-star and it never should have been.
54886,1,"Terrible, Frustrating, Impossible","Do not buy this toy!!! I really would have liked to give this a ""zero"" star rating. My son received this as a Christmas gift and it has been the most frustrating project we have ever attempted. The machine is durable enough and fairly well constructed but it seems almost impossible to achieve success. We have made dozens of attempts to make the cars and have only been able to successfully complete one. The worst part is having to see how disappointed he is every time we open a mold to a failed attempt!"
54958,1,I could have liked this movie...,"If I didn't see Mallrats first. I bought this movie because Mallrats was awesome, and found that after that movie (which my buddies and I still watch every now and again) this movie totally blows. Perhaps it's the B&W;, perhaps the budget, but I think it's the script and lack of directorial experience. Sorry Kevin, this one's a stinker. I'm glad so many people disagree with me, or one of my favorite movies would have never come to existence. That's all I have to say about that.P.S. The original ending would have upped my rating, but since it was cut, nevermind"
54987,1,A Field Book of he Stars,I have been interested in Astronomy for a long time. This book is filled with great information regardingg the stars and different constellations. Unfortunately there are no plates or maps to go along with what is being said. With maps or plates of the different constellation would make the book a 4 or 5 rating on my list.
55043,1,glad I didn't buy,I borrowed this from the library before I bought. Turns out it was a good idea. I only found 3 recipes I would actually make for our dog. too bad... the pictures are super cute.
55127,1,GOOD ENTRY LEVEL BOOK,The book is informative. Unfortunatly not much info on ballistics and effective distances. More doing with the people that are linked with the .50 BMG. Similar to an Elmer Kieth entry were the 44 Magnum is mentioned. Still a good book just not as in depth or balistic related as originally informed it would be.
55147,1,Okay,"I think the shoe is fairly comfortable, but a little too clunky and heavy around the sole area! Eccos are better!"
55295,1,sucked,"It wasn't very good. the ""humor"" they where trying to do failed horribly. Do not waste your time or money."
55324,1,needs serious revision,"I was less than impressed with this ""analysis"" of our Constitution. This guy was a junior high school teacher and he must have started the ""dumbing down"" of our American society. The Only reason why I bought the book was it was required reading for a teacher test that is given by a government school system and I need to take the test for a credential. At least it has a copy of the actual document in the back half of the book.My ""Revised and Updated Edition"" was last revised two presidential terms ago and we have raised salaries for the states government jobs and the new Cabinet position of Secretary for Homeland Security are not in the book. The latter has somewhat ""juggled"" the succession for president and that should be noted as well.My suggestion...skip this book unless required by a class and even then, suggest a different title."
55340,1,okay...,"This movie isn't the best movie I've ever watched, nor is it even close to being the worst. It had a few good laughs, but could have been a lot better."
55358,1,Excellent Laser,"i got this laser for my sa177 bb gun. it works great i had to sight it properly now it shoots right where the laser is aimed atTheres one problem though, because the sa177 delivers a shocking blowback. the laser sometimes turns off, then you have to take the batteries out and put them back in. this is just annoying doesnt take that much time to do.but overall its a very good laser. very very long rangeeEDIT: The adjustment screw on my laser broke from adjusting because the laser keeps going off sight since it broke its way off from the shooting point so no point of even turning it on. very cheap laser recommmend yu NOT buy"
55366,1,Stargate Infinity: The Complete Series,"Stargate Infinity: The Complete SeriesThis is not the movie I thought it was, therefore I was disappointed when I tried to watch the DVD. However I am sure there are consumers that would have enjoyed the DVD."
55383,1,End of a beautiful friendship,"This book is similar to the first fifteen minutes of ""Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade,"" in which all of Indy's quirks are explained down to the scar on his chin. Only in this case, it's not funny, or even fun. Walsh gets the characters' flaws correct, but completely misses their strengths -- especially Renault and Victor Laszlo, who seem to be completely different people here. He also removes the nobility from both Rick and Ilsa, making their sacrifices vain in both senses of the word."
55439,1,"Dull, Plotless Nonsense","This film is not art nor a great cinimatic achievment. It has no story, dialogue, or acting. This does not deserve much recognition, and it's surprising that it's gotten what it has.It's a bore."
55471,1,Full of untruths. I am a decent of the Sanks Family. WE ALWAYS KNEW of SANKSVILLE. We grew up there. LIES.,THE AUTHOR IMPLIED THAT SANKSVILLE WAS SOME LOST CITY.. IT MADE MY BLOOD BOIL; CALLING THE PUBLISHER AND OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS.
55485,1,An Unwatchable sequel.,"Basic Instinct 2 is the worst sequel I've ever seen since Revenge of the nerds 2, the first movie had actual suspense, seduction, better acting and better screenplay, this one is just garbage, the acting is horrible, the screenplay is a mess, the writing is over the top and everything about it was wrong, thank god michael douglas passed on this one, because he would be embarrassed to be in this movie.This is one of the worst movies of the year."
55548,1,Widescreen and 5.1 Please,The fantastic score deserves better--as does the cinematography. Movie: 5 Stars; DVD: 0 Stars.
55615,1,Not that Great,"I had high hopes that this movie was going to be a riot. However, I was let down. This movie was not that great. It just didn't do it for me. I found it rather dull. I only laughed at a few parts. Not one to buy for sure. I don't even think it is worth a rental."
55624,1,Guess What......Guess Who isnt that great of a movie,"Ashton Kutcher (A Lot Like Love, Dude Where's My Car?) plays Simon who is dating Percy's, Bernie Mac (Mr. 3000, Ocean's 11 and 12), daughter but there's one problem with Simon that Percy sees, that's he's white and his daughter is black. Let's say it rings on on Meet The Parents just a little too much even though this is about an interracial couple. They said they had to spend millions of dollars editing out Kutcher's red Kaballah braclet in evern scene he was in which I laughed my ass off because that's so ridiculous.... Kutcher isnt funny in this movie...he's funny in That 70's Show but he isnt funny here. Bernie Mac anchors the film as the Dad. Also starring Mike Epps (Next Friday, The Honeymooners). Hey, dont mind me I'm just jotting down my opinions, like it or not."
55626,1,It should have been a fascinating story. . .,"Having grown up in central California during the 70s, Angela Davis was vilified in my family. This made me want to read her book all the more. Unfortunately it's presentation is delivered in a very boring way, concentrating heavily on her trial, which is quite boring in comparison to the rest of the book. Also, Davis' anti-White attitude is on display, which prevents her from delivering a non-partial, even account of the times. I can forgive a slanted view on the times, but not a boring, slanted view."
55647,1,a story like the slug,this story is nothing like the wind. this book could be good if he cut out more of the details and and wrote more about what is actually happening he has to detail it so much teach chapter could be 12-16 pages long.

55697,1,Feels like being stuck in the desert,"Poor Norah! They say that winning ""Best new artist"" is a curse. There have been a lot of artists who've won the award, and faded into obscurity, never repeating their success, and eventaully, disappearing off the face of the planet. It seems that the beautiful, sultry, classy Norah Jones is no exception. Her first album, ""Come Away With Me"" was a brilliant, stunning masterpiece showcasing a subtle, gentle beauty that was as warming as it was cool. However, her sophomore album is extremely disappointing, to say the least. the songs aren't melodic, but bland, boring, and overly produced. It is too bad that Jones' ""Feels Like Home"" is suffering the post-Grammy blahs. It seems that ""Come Away With Me"" was a blockbuster movie, and the sequel is underwhelming with a poor script, the same old plot, and nothing more to offer."
55700,1,I Cannot Resist Quoting This Review From England,". . . ""The rest wafts discreetly around the room like something manufactured by Airwick. Don't Know Why, the best-known track from Come Away With Me, had an undeniable melody: you might not have liked it, but it was impossible to dislodge from your head. There's nothing similar here. In fact, Feels Like Home is so inoffensive you have trouble remembering whether you put it on.""""You suspect that this is the appeal for the millions of people who buy this kind of thing. They are past the point of wanting to be moved or inspired by rock and pop. Instead they treat music as something ornamental, something with which you can tastefully decorate your home. Beautifully produced and beautifully played to no cumulative effect whatsoever, this album fits the bill perfectly.""-Alexis PetridisFriday February 6, 2004The Guardian"
55715,1,Won't keep a charge...,"This battery won't keep a charge.After charging the battery with the Olympus battery charger, my camera can only take 3 pictures before it indicates ""battery empty.""Also, the model on the battery reads 60206BA, but the battery I wanted to buy reads 51209BA."
55758,1,Over-rated author and a poor excuse for a boxing book,"Anyone who believes that this book is an authentic portrayal of boxing has never stepped into a ring and has no sense of history or perspective. Mailer hero-worshipped Ali, and could never write anything objective about him. Mailer knew nothing about boxing, other than the sensation of hitting a woman in one of his drunken binges. Mailer went to Africa, and could not write the truth about Zaire or its bloodthirsty dictator. He either did not know or could not write that the stadium in which the fight was held, for example, was a killing field for criminals who were rounded up before the fight to make sure the event went smoothly for the press and the tourists."
55823,1,where's the beef,"i have now read two of spark's novels and my disappointment will prevent me from reading a third. as others have stated, this book is just a cheap knockoff of ""the bridges of madison county"". why would an author write such a poor copy of a good story? my theory is that good old saint nick is in it for the dough. he put just enough sweet sentimentality in the story to lure in the hopeless romantics who believe that a few days of love and romance at the beach can change us into new creatures and solve all of our problems - past, current, and future. oh that life were that simple!!! you may have fooled some people, nickie, but you can't fool me."
55834,1,Don't even go there,so in the end nobody knows what happends and nobody knows about the huge shark!Come on people cant you do anything better!If I could I would feed the cast and crew to the shark if they had acually convinced me that this was a movie!There should have been a love story in it that didn't end in both of them dying!
55917,1,Awful Beyond Imagination,"I bought this thinking I would at least get a widescreen transfer for the DVD. No such luck. This is a washed out laserdisc rehash that's 4:3 (full frame) instead of 16:9 (widescreen). What a disappointment.(I knew how godawful the movie was, and I knew I'd be getting a DVD-R manufactured-on-demand. None of that deterred me. But I at least thought it would be better than a 20-year-old VHS transfer. THAT's my complaint.)"
55988,1,Odd Shape,"Pros:ComfortableVery SupportiveNice Lace(Can't comment on durability - I returned it)Cons:SHAPEI found this bra to give my breasts a very bizarre shape. Not cone or bullet shaped, but definitely too perky- my breasts pointed up. If you look closely you can actually see the shape on the model in the picture. I didn't notice until I tried it on myself but then I looked back at the picture and sure enough - they point up. I think everyone has a different idea of an appropriate breast shape so my advice is to look very carefully at the picture being mindful of the shape- if it looks good to you then you might like it. It is also possible that with bigger breasts the extra gravity might balance out the extra lift and make a nice shape. (I am a 40D)"
56016,1,Very disappointed,"I STILL have NOT received this item and have not been contacted back! I was charged but never got my item, and will NOT be doing business with them again."
56043,1,Dislike,I have a Pomerainian. She is 7 pounds. I purchased this product because I didn't want to shock her but wanted to keep her out of certain areas. This product DID NOT work for her at all. I can see her hesitation but she walks right through the 'barrier'. I will be returning this product promptly.
56140,1,Pure Guitar Moods,"I was expecting mellow guitar rythm music. This music is more folk music. The CD's were ok, but not my kind of music."
56146,1,What happened to Foster Brooks???,"Living in Fji, we do not have much access to the latest TV shows and movies.We were fortunate a couple of months ago to see the ""Make 'Em Laugh"" series on Pay TV here. It was great to see the old comics and learn so much about their craft. In particular, we enjoyed the ""Pilot"" sketch with Foster Brooks and Dean Martin. We have always had a soft spot for Foster Brooks and bought the DVD to have a permanent record of the ""Pilot"".We watched the series all the way through and it seems that the ""Pilot"" has already flown away!!!!One wonders how many other scenes were cut from the original series in the making of the DVD.We will definitley think twice about buying anything from Amazon in future."
56190,1,Very little depth.,"Not much more here than you would find in a high school book review of Kevin Mitnicks work. You won't find anything compelling, just a brief overview. Skip the ebook and do as the author suggests; put in a web search for ""social engineering"" and you will certainly get more out of that."
56226,1,Horrible Movie!,"I saw this movie on the ABC Family channel last year....love their play of all holiday movies during Christmas-time. My sister and husband watched it with me, and we completely rolled our eyes and made fun of the entire thing. Plot is ridiculous, and makes you want to beat your head against the wall. I've always been a fan of both Melissa and Mario, but the acting in this story was just horrendous. The only reason we finished is because my sister insisted. We all thought it would get better. It didn't. I'd rate it a zero if possible! Complete waste of your holiday movie watching time!"
56251,1,"The only mystery is how this film isn't in the $5 bin at Wal mart, and it's one not worth solving","Not even the likes of Wes CravenCould save this film from bad movie haven""Cursed"" and ""Shocker""- those were awfulBut this one's so bad, it should be unlawfulIt amazes me how people could be suckered inBy a movie that should be in the bargain binEven the 3D, with picture so flatWill make you say ""enough of THAT""The mystery surrounding a small town killeris what is the plot of this cringe-worthy thrillerAnd especially the characters, which we've seen beforeAdd to this movie being a flat out boreThe dialogue is awful, the acting just sucksYou'll await the end of this waste of hard-earned bucksAnd even the twist, which is just a guessing gameIs predictable as hell, and flat out lameBoring, depressing, unworthy and dullYou'd be better off staring at the nearest wallLet's hope Wes can improve with Scream 4Which hopefully will be good and not such a bore"
56300,1,Not so excellent as it is hyped about...,"I purchased this book recently. Given the amount of praise Amazon's customers have given it, I expected it to help me resolve my indecision. (I have three major fields to choose from) Nope, it does not. It's a good book, but it doesnot come anywhere close to ""The Pathfinder"" (which in my opinion, is the BEST). Barbara and Paul Tieger's ""Do what you are"" is second. My view is that once you can target what you want, getting it is a lot easy. You will not then need any special techniques or tricks because your heart will show the way. Get ""The Pathfinder"" first and do all the exercises there. Maybe you won't need this one then."
56385,1,Horrible,"The images are cheap and cartoony - you can get better clip art on Microsoft Word. So lame is this product, that there was nothing suitable to make decent Christmas cards. I'll try Hallmark - maybe they'll have classier stuff."
56427,1,Not great...,"I bought this book because my son started talking about outer space and rockets, etc... I also bought it because we have several other Byron Barton books and my son really enjoys reading and looking at. However, this book is a little boring, doesn't keep his interest and isn't on the same level as the other Barton books."
56468,1,Too Small,I purchased these for my daughter to wear over the holiday's. I bought an size larger than she wears (8) only to find the shoes are made very small and she could not wear them... Dissapointed
56476,1,"No vibe, no soul","As much as I enjoy Slim Man and Bona Fide on stage, sorry, this CD doesn't have any of that magic vibe in the recording.Slim Man has a certain on-stage vibe, but it doesn't translate in recordings, least of all this recording.See him live? Yes.Love this CD? No."
56545,1,Didn't live up to the hype,"I bought this for my cat with kidney issues, to encourage her to drink more (preferably not from the toilet). It worked -- she did like the fresh bubbling water. But this product is cheap! The plastic wore and discolored within a few months, and the tube that the water runs though started to get brown and grody-looking. Then, about 10 months later, the motor gave up and the whole thing leaked all over my floor. Now kitty is back to a regular bowl.Next time, I'm investing in something nicer, and probably not plastic."
56574,1,Could have been worse...What???,"Well, it was interesting...sorta...but really a bad movie..the cgi sucked...but it was supposed to.I got this pretty cheap...but it was not worth the S/H.I would take the S/H for the move...if someone want's it.<>Lon<>"
56609,1,omg sumbody shoot me,"ok hmm lets see, the first cruel intentions was the best its my favoret movie i will say i wont see this movie i havnt yet cuz it makes no sence in the first sebastion(phillipe) dies so wtf and y didnt they get all the actors back instead.Telling from the add for this movie the shower scene sebastion isnt the way he acts in the first DONT SEE IT I DONT PLAN ON IT."

56701,1,Just doesn't do much for me,"This album has found success at country radio, and also country CD charts, but limited critical success.It wasn't a rush job, so I tip my cowboy hat to him for that. But, as shown on Idol, Gracin just doesn't have too much to impress listeners with vocally.""I Want To Live"" - the lead of single - sounds like a generic country song. Like something you've heard before, and therefore he doesn't bring much originality to a country genre that, at times, is often dry on it's own."
56725,1,Initial disappointment,"Rich feature set in this camcorder. Stills are surprisingly good. However, after about one hour of use the LCD screen failed (went dark, but still functioned, just could not read under anything less than direct light). The unit is currently on its way back to a repair facility under warranty. Stay tuned."
56779,1,Ridiculous!,"I wanted a book that would give me multiple ideas for beautiful table settings. So I ordered this book called ""Table Settings - 100 inspirational stylings, themes and layouts"". I thought I was getting a book with 100 different sample table settings, when in fact it may have 100 pictures, but very few table settings. It has pictures of a bowl or a plate. There are pictures of cookies, flowers, name cards, forks and knives, a tassel, and even a photo of some wrapped asparagas. It borders on the ridiculous to call itself a Table Settings book. There was no way to preview various pages in this book, so I relied on the title to purchase it.I can't tell you how disappointed I am with this book. I have never returned a book before, however, I want to send this one back."
56804,1,too expensive and no return call.,Could have recieved this same book for $.99 online. I called the company and left my call back number but never recieved a call.
56837,1,"Poor, poor, poor","This book and the others in the series are absolutely awful. Cliches abound, narrative has no cohesion and characterizition is horrendously flat. I read this and thought it was terrible. After the series continued to be popular I read the second, thinking that the author had improved with experience. He hadn't. I actually started the third book before I realized that this series was a losing proposition. Steer clear, and spend your time on more worthwhile pursuits."
56844,1,Better than a root canal,"I bought the first three books of this series, due to a recommendation of a friend. Big mistake. Enough people have already described the story already, so I won't bother. The basic idea was good, but the writing is extremely sophomoric to the point of amateurish. The characters are one dimensional and the dialog is childish. The villain's name is Darken Rahl, because Darth Vader was already taken. What little action here was rather predictable, as was the ""surprise"" ending. While I did enjoy the S & M part of the book, I still cannot recommend this to anyone."
56891,1,Not Rockin,"Man, i was disappointed! Ive been a Lep fan for ages, i got all their cd's, and have to say this is their worst! This album should of been an addition to their new release! Then it would be okay, but for a new album? no way, this sucks, this aint def leppard."
56919,1,Not quite long enough?,"I was so excited waiting for this CD and felt a huge letdown when I first played it. I have listened to it at least 50 times hoping that it would grow on me. Nope. I was feeling pretty bummed because I had purchased tickets for myself and some friends for his concert at the Orpheum in Madison. Having praised him so much, I thought the concert would embarrass me and my musical tastes. Wrong. The concert was excellent, including the new stuff. Jonny needs to take another look at his production team because they did him a grave injustice on this CD."
56922,1,Not SRV - AT ALL!,"Oh man did I get burned!I read a review of this album in People magazine where Jonny Lang was being compared to Stevie Ray Vaughan. This immediately grabbed my interest as I can think of nothing better than SRV. There was even mention of a Steven Tyler harmonica accompanyment. All of this added up to my immediate purchase of the album ""Long Time Coming"". Simply put, THIS IS NOT BLUES.I am still angry, not so much at Lang, but at the magazine review.Lang's album has clearly departed from the blues genre and delved straight into mainstream rock-pop. If you are looking for the second coming of SRV, this is not it.I was very impressed with Lang's early stuff (lie to me) and listening to this album, I did not hear much, if any growth in his lyrics or vocal ability. I guess he did set the bar pretty high for himself as a 16 year old phenom. Unless you really like Jonny's vocals, I would not reccommend this album. If you're looking for blues - run the other way!"
56960,1,very quirky!,hmmm not sure how i ended up with this album but somehow i have it...do i like it?not really... it's quirky... i guess it's one of the few album's that i have in my collection that can be called quirky... i guess that's not my thing...i can't really give this album justice... I'm not a big emo fan and not a big electronic fan... unless it's somethings really special... like The New Deal... and this album is nothing special...sometimes hearing Tannis Kristanjson's voice perks me up... like coffee... she has the cutest voice that just pops over these songs... and Ari Katz (from Jade Tree's Lifetime) is her counterpart... just bubbly as can be...the thing that annoys me the most about the album is not having a clue what the singers are singing... i pretty much have to guess because i can't find the lyrics on the web...the whole album is pretty much a drag... i say save your money... but you most likely wont even be able to find this...hey... take my copy!1 star out of 5

56980,1,CUISINART PRODUCTS DO NOT LAST!!!!!!!,"This is our second Cuisinart food processor -- both have died very young deaths. Basically, after a few simple uses, they just won't power on. We didn't use them for anything unusual - just simple, quick chopping of vegetables. My guess is that Cuisinart is resting on its laurels from before the millennium, and is now secretly lowering their product quality hoping people won't notice. However, I've never experienced such shoddy product quality. It reminds me of buying a cheap product manufactured in Taiwan in the 1970s. Will never buy Cuisinart again."
57021,1,Not Recommended,"Does not fully remove corks. I have used it over a dozen times and, at best, it lifts the cork about 1/2 way out of the bottle, where it can be removed by hand the rest of the way. Most of the time it only moves the cork about 1/8 to 1/4 inch and I needed to use an old fashioned method. I would not recommend purchase."
57068,1,stripped gears,"I am very disappointed with this product. I was carving my Thanksgiving turkey yesterday when the knife stopped working after it got hooked on bone in the wing. The motor continued to work, but the blades stopped moving. The knife has only been used 3 times, but I had to throw it out today. I opened the plastic case, and found a metal worm gear coming off the motor shaft,and a cheap nylon gear attached to it to move the blades back and forth. The nylon gear was stripped and the knife was useless. My prior knife, much less expensive, lasted for 18 years. The Cuisinart knife is not well made and only works well when it is not under any stress."
57070,1,very disappointed,"bought this knife cuisinart was a durable high quality knife , was i ever wrong used it 6 or 8 times and knife quit fileting to top it off i;ve tried twice to contact them with not so much of a hello from them geeeeeeeez THANKS for very expensive lesson"
57102,1,OK headset but has hidden problems,I have grown to really dislike this headset. This is about my fourth and I find it a real problem to use.First there is not volume control or mute button so you can only control it by opening a device manager.Second if you want to listen to music on your PC you have to switch the driver to your sound card. If you want to listen to music on your headset you have switch your driver to the USB device. It is a total hassle. You cannot just switch your speakers on and off. If you use skype and voip you have to constantly fiddle with the drivers to configure you sound how you want. No other headset has done this to me. You just plug them in and everything works as you want it.
57176,1,Doesn't contain music from the trailer!,"Did you see the first Seabiscuit trailer? It started with a clip of FDR and contained other Depression era scenes of the unemployed, etc. Then it moved on to Seabiscuit....as the music swelled to a crescendo. This was a very good musical theme that I was looking forward to hearing in the movie and on the soundtrack...but's its not in the movie or on the soundtrack! (Does anyone know what the theme is and where it can be found?)"
57183,1,I can't believe this book is still around,"Believe it or not, my son is 18 now and I read this while expecting him. Since then I've had three other healthy babies as well. But this book made me feel so guilty, and I could never, ever live up to the recommended diet, and I'm a big eater, too. It seemed like a weight trainer would not be able to eat all the food listed.I actually got protein-added powdered shakes from the health food store just to get the recommended number of grams of protein. And I clearly remember being exhausted late at night and forcing myself to eat two eggs for the same reason. I hope I didn't damage my kidneys by forcing so much protein.In later pregnancies I relaxed A LOT and just ate what seemed good and reasonable, and I had similar, very healthy large babies. With less weight gain for myself, ironically.I do NOT recommend this book unless you want to be on a constant guilt trip and be filled to the gills with so much food that you feel sick and bloated."
57190,1,"HORRIBLE recipes, unrealistic expectations!","Yes, it is completely true what the other reviewers have pointed out - this book has RIDICULOUS standards that no human being could possibly live up to. When I first purchased this book (luckily second-hand so I didn't pay full price) I was very excited about having a wealth of knowledge and recipes at my fingertips. But as soon as I started reading it, it just made me feel so guilty and horrible about everything I ate before I knew I was pregnant, and also what I was expected to do now that I know. Talk about ruining the experience! I even tried some of the recipes in the book - the veggie soup was bogus and ""FUDGE BROWNIES""??? Give me a break, those were the most disgusting things I have ever tried to eat. They were not chocolately in the least but rather tasted like some kind of fig bars. Just listen to your body and your doctor's advice and skip this piece of trash!"
57199,1,Much different tracks then my original American album!,Still a good CD but I thought I was getting the original American release which apparently was different then the original European release. Completely different track list. Make sure you review before purchasing!
57231,1,NOT GOOD,"I have to say that I am reviewing this game without having played much of it. Upon first seeing the game, the graphics stood out as pretty decent. But once I realized that the movement was as slow as a snail caught in quicksand, I couldn't play any longer. You can double tap up on the left joystick to sprint, but it felt cumbersome to do. Going backwards while getting your a!! shot off feels like a Max Payne slow-mo death trap where the enemies have all the advantages of real-time. I understand the developers wanted a sense of realism, but my 100 year old granny can walk faster than this... even with a loaded diaper. And these companies wonder why their games don't sell as well as the Call of Duties out there. Maybe if you got some gamers to play test your game and give you some feedback on what stinks, then you might make a good game. Thanks for nothin'"
57294,1,War of the World/ID4 wannabe,"This movie is a War of the Worlds and ID4 wannabe. The aliens are hardly there.Most of the movie takes places in Mel Gibson's farmhouse. There is one crop circle in this whole movie. Sure it's hyped and critrics are saying it's one the years best films.Mainstream movies maybe?There is tons of plot holes and dialogue problems, It feels like a made for cable movie. Sure people will be screaming at the parts where you jump. Save your hard earned money and wait for this movie on DVD and video.If you must see it wait until it hits the second run movie theaters!"
57340,1,"Flat Writing, But Honest and Funny","Although I did not donate any money, I have followed her site and enjoyed it. She gets high marks for being honest in her effort, but if you've read the basics on her site there is no reason to buy the book. Besides, all the anywhos and yeps started to really grate on my nerves. The first half of the book wastes time on making the reader see how completely fabulous she is. The books wraps up with her still showing no real sign of humility. She does give some vivid stories that are good for a couple of laughs, but I'd still recommend putting the money you'd spend on this book towards your own credit card debt.Unless she can pull some more talents out of her hat, her 15 minutes are almost up."
57361,1,Somebody has to tell the truth about this book!,"This book is a dreadful sham, and I am embarassed for the profession of physics that so many lay readers have been taken in by it (evidently). Hawking is by all accounts a brilliant researcher, but this book is no more than a dazzling mirage - there is no way that anyone could learn anything useful about physics or the universe. If all you want is to be dazzled by decriptions of black holes and the big bang then go ahead, but don't kid yourself that you understand any of it."
57373,1,Died 3 years,"This lens does everything the manufacturer claims. It is sharp, auto focuses well and is easy to use. Unfortunately the lens stopped working after three years."
57478,1,Great Potential,"While this dictionary could have been useful for me in translating psychometric instruments, the editors apparently decided that listing the gender of the words wasn't needed. Perhaps they are also the sort of people who think that translation involves finding the equivalent word in the other language and setting it down in the same order. A disappointing tool."
57491,1,Not made for American spice jars,"We recently purchased a set of Rösle racks from another on-line retailer.That web site did not offer the double spice rack, and now I think I know why. We ordered the spice rack from Amazon.com, and when it arrived, our first impression was that it was beautiful, and solidly made. Unfortunately, when we tried to test it out with spice jars from our cupboard, none of them fit on the bottom shelf of the rack. We tried the shortest jars in our cupboard, and only the half-height sampler jars fit. The top shelf holds only 7 jars. Because of the very poor capacity of the rack, we will be returning it."
57500,1,"It's not a smooth rotation, and the more tension you put on it the rotation is nonexistent. Do not waste your money","It's not a smooth rotation, and the more tension you put on it the rotation is nonexistent. Do not waste your money"
57502,1,Loud and annoying,"This thing gets VERY loud squeak after about 10 min. The resistance is a joke, and the thing moves around all over. I won't give it one star because it does work, when you can get it to sit still...but not worth the money!"
57547,1,sent mens's instead of women's,I ordered womens sweat pants extra large and I was sent mens extra large.They are to big.Instead of sending them back I use them for bed only. I am very disappointed in this mix up. I know that extra large in womens fit me right.
57585,1,gah - waaaay too many typos,The story was okay and probably would have been so much better if it weren't for the incredible abundance of typos in the Kindle version. Think I may go and try to get my money back...
57692,1,Can't hardly keep themselves up. This product is worthless.,"I have different types of magnetic hooks and these are by far the worst. Not even worth returning, they arrived and went into my garbage can the same day."
57708,1,"DVD? No,DZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZD","Why oh why re-release this movie and put out a lame duck DVD? Wow, subtitles! What a bonus! Thanks Universal! Y'know the fact that it boasts sound should be considered an extra too. Or even better, there is actually a Movie on the disc! Oh the choices! Fans should be paid to put this cheap afterthought of a product in our collections. Everyone wants to know why I only have Horror or Sci Fi in my collection? Boring, tepid, rip off DVDs of classic flicks like this are the answer! When ""BS"" was re-released I was psyched because I thought a well-packed DVD was on its way. Boy was I wrong. I know it may seem beneath the Coen Bros. to do a commentary track or an interview but they have to wake up and, at least, insist on a more insightful release. Shame, on them, for letting this just shuffle out like all their other movies. Funny, ""Blood Simple"" gets a dud DVD and ""Mummy Returns"" gets the royal treatment. Why??"
57793,1,No customer service AT ALL,"My son's ant farm was fun, although the first batch of ants took about 6 weeks to show up, and several were already dead. The problem started when we ordered a refill of sand and ants. We ordered them back in August. When there were no ants by October, we emailed, and received only a robo-response. Emailed again this month, no response. Wrote a real letter, with emails attached, and no response. That's an order form, two emails, and a letter, all ignored by Uncle Milton customer service staff. Don't bother to buy this product."
57863,1,Auto Time Setting,I also could not get it to use the feature that automatically sets the time as an NYC resident.
57931,1,Don't buy remanufactured products,"The DVD tray was not opened after pressing the open/close button.It was not tested properly as the basic function was not working.I am waiting for Amazon's reply to exchange this product. If i face the same type of problem in 2nd time then i will go for money back.I have received the 2nd item but the same prolem, the DVD didn't work. I will return both the items."
57946,1,This book needs to go in the FICTION section.,"I bought into this book hook, line and sinker (and the movie) as a child. THen I grew up and learned that everything you read isn't the truth.It's been proven the author manufactured artifacts (they even found the artisan who made a few of of them aftre being paid).Anyone considering reading this book or seeing the documentary should read the book Crash go the Chariots and other books that pick apart Von Daniken's work point by point.It does make fascinating reading but it's largely fiction. He twists facts. Leaves out anything that even remotely refutes his theories and as mentioned before manufactured 'evidence' where none existed.A bullet hole in a 40,000 year old Bison skull? How laughable is that?THis book IS valuable in that it can be used a teaching tool to show students they shouldn't believe everything they read.Every year some 'scientist' announces he's found Atlantis. Because of von Daniken I'v learned not to take such reports at face value."
57986,1,Great Movie but Amazon HD kept crashing,Of course the movie is AWESOME but Amazon HD kept crashing. Eventually I gave up and re-rented it in non-HD which worked better.
58003,1,not german shepherd proof!,"I bought this because it was from Kong and the reviews were good. It did not last more than ten minutes before my dog ripped it apart. It was also smaller than I thought, only six inches tall. Its nice that there isn't any stuffing to pick up. My dog loved it though. But this is probably only good for small dogs."
58023,1,Don't like it,"Overall, a pretty silly--not funny--movie. Even with great actors such as Meg Ryan and William Macy trying to pull it out of the doldrums, it doesn't work."
58036,1,Same book different name,This is the same stuff Robert has told you in his other books. If you have any of them don't bother.
58195,1,Mine doesn't work,"Just received this product. I opened it, pressed the only button on it and the button stuck. It will not work? It doesn't work and I am not happy about throwing my money away. I do not recommend this product."
58280,1,dont bother,"this looks like a jurassic park movie instead of a godzilla movie. this movie fails miserably its got good special effects, bad acting, terrible leading performances, and is way too long. unlike the other godzilla movies this movie is no fun at all. go rent the original one instead"
58305,1,Wow... Just wow.,"Imagine a movie with tired ideas, ridden with cliches from the insiddious goth ledgends of vampires and the like. Now add on some terrible acting, and some of the worst special effects I've ever seen. I mean, the werewolf's transforming would have looked better if it was stop motion for gods sake. So, you have imagined it? Good, now don't see it. I might have set your expectaions too highly with this review, for as bad as I have made it sound, it is actually far worse. Not House of the Dead bad, mind you, but pretty terrible all the same."
58325,1,"Brando is excellent, but ...","Marlon Brando's performance is still watchable: subtle, surprising. So ... just damn good. He clearly modified his part on the fly, to make it compelling and real.But the movie is barely watchable: melodramatic, unreal, unceasingly moralistic, and the music by Leonard Bernstein is so badly over-the-top it makes you want to scream. The rest of the actors are all sporting their soap-operatic gestures and their radio voices and their canned character quirks. The script is well-structured but the dialogue is terrible ... except in Brando's case: he's like a magician who's stumbled into the middle of a high school play.By the way, the DVD is full-screen, not widescreen. Which is a shame, because the cinematography is quite interesting. The features on this DVD are worthless."
58354,1,Not as good in my opinion,I am a Woody Allen fan and bought this because of the reviews. I guess it was not my cup of tea. I couldn't watch it for more then 15 minutes. I wish I could figure out what exactly I didn't like about it.
58443,1,Pure selfishness,"Just because this woman wanted a baby and couldn't adopt because the adoption agency thought it would be too much of a risk, this dodo gets pregnant, causes her mother to lose a kidney and then dies like she was told would happen. Pure idiocy."
58468,1,Just after warranty expired it broke,I have loved the quality of the prints for a little over a year. Then the printhead broke. I called for a replacement part and the replacement costs $97 before shipping costs. Great printer - just wish it worked. I will not buy Cannon again.
58498,1,a waste of time and money,"i have been interested in learning about the feldenkrais method for some time. after seeing all the five star reviews for this book i thought that it would be a great introduction to the method. boy was i wrong. this is NOT a book for people who have very little or no knowledge of the feldenkrais method. i found it to be complex, technical, wordy, and in many cases more complicated than it needed to be. there are almost no pictures accompaning the text, and the few pictures that exist are of wooden manequins. don't be fooled by the glowing reviews written by people are who are practicioners of the method. if you are like me and just want a book to introduce you to the concepts then this is not the book."
58575,1,"Very poor quality, no velcro","I was extremely disappointed with these sheets. I'm pretty sure they claimed to have the velcro strips that attach to the velcro on the co-sleeper, but they do not. They are so thin that you can see through them and they are rough to the touch, too. I was really shocked that these are even something you can legally sell as a sheet. Thats how bad they are. And of course, I haven't had time to return them, but definitely plan to."
58612,1,Waste of talent...waste of time...,This movie is a waste of time. I love Rosannebut her comic abilities are ignored (and she is miscast)in this silly film as it seems the plot (a jerk gets his just reward)is the only thing valued or 'allowed' to star. What a waste of talent!This is a boring stupid movie. Be sure & miss it.
58623,1,genuinely awful - this is one knockoff too many,"Well, this was the last film in the Harryhausen set we got, and it is the only one I found so bad that I could barely watch it. Even though Jane Seymour is in this, the acting is so bad, so stilted, so wooden, that I cannot comprehend how it could possibly be, well, so awful. The direction is also bad, with all sorts of meaingless incidents, like someone falling while walking, etc. Finally, the script is also boring and while all of these are improbably, I could not suspend my disbelief and enjoy any if it. Even my kids got bored, and it was for them that I got it. The only redeeming feature are Harryhausen's effects, which are good, but they are grafted onto such a crumby movie.Not recommended. You can't even enjoy this as camp."
58654,1,Bent gate,"The baby gate arrived quickly and was well packaged; however, after putting the gate up, I realized that it was slightly bent and doesn't align well with the door frame, making it more difficult to open and close. The pedal does still work. I got this gate for my dogs in order to keep them separate from the cat. Unfortunately, if they jump on the gate hard enough they can push it down. I think I would have been better off getting a gate that needed to be screwed into the wall. The hands free opener is a nice touch and the dogs haven't been able to figure it out."
58682,1,Brief and to the point.,"I just finished Book Four. I was so disappointed, that I went back to Amazon and read Mr. Fox's review of the book, as well as the reviews by Pawlyszyn and Tom. I agree with all three.I did not like Book Four, I skimmed through much of it, which I rarely do. I was reading this book on my Kindle, and at 90%, the book was over. I didn't find the concluding comments, entitled, ""Meanwhile, Back on the Wall,"" amusing. Mr. Martin wasted my time and lost me as a reader."
58683,1,Very Disappointing,I waited so long for this book and it turned out to be a major disappointment. I really could have done without the gross parts. Is he going to destroy all the good characters? After the first 3 chapters I ended up skimming through the book. Don't waste your money or at least wait until it comes out in paperback. I won't be so quick to be the next book. Truly disappointing. The first 3 books were outstanding. There was so much potential.
58705,1,TERRIBLE!!!!,Don't waste your time unless you are an insomniac in desperate need of sleep!!! I already pay for HBO so I really don't see the need to buy anymore of Mr. Martin's blatherings about fingers & chins dripping bacon grease or how deep an impession Sam's foot makes in the snow. I mean REALLY?! An entire chapter of Sam walking and talking to himself?!!! Or was that book 3? The mind reels from monotonous droll.
58713,1,very unhappy,I was ever disapointed with this book. I didn't read the reviews for book 4 because I had enjoyed the other 3 so much.But this book was divied into two books which I would have liked to know before I got to the end of the book. Goes to show the writter was after the money not the reader. I have not bought book five for that reason.
58744,1,the stupidest movie Willis has done?,"Silly, dumb, idiotic, unbelievable, manic, wacky, wasted talent, poorly written, 8-year-old humor, absurd, insulting, not really very funny, don't waste your time."
58777,1,The ultimate trial of patience,I dare you to make it through the first 100 pages of this book without wanting to put it down. Such was the trial for me when I read this....arggg...jussttt.. a little more...its going to get better just give it time...too late I quit. The prose are needlessly dense and are in need of heavy editing. Friends that have finished it tell me it gets better near the end....but is the torment really worth it? NO!!!. Ive warned you...this one is a snoozer!!!
58797,1,Bad Mix in the 80's and still bad now,I got this album when it first came out. Played it and thought there was something wrong with my speakers. The mix was horrible couldnt hear the drums like you should have. Really ruined an album which had some great riffs and songs. Saw the offer for the digitally remastered and jumped on it. Problem is the mix is still horrible. They added some bunus items but the mix on the lives tracks is horrible too. Album needs to be remixed not remastered. Pretty dissapointing for me. Too bad cause the songs are good.
58835,1,DO NOT TRUST- mine EXPLODED,"Last night I measured 4 cups of boiling water into this pyrex dish to pour into a recipe, poured the water and set it down on the counter. As I started to walk away it sounded like a gunshot. The glass was all over in a 5 foot radius. I just got this measuring cup for x-mas, it is new. Just do a search for exploding pyrex and you will see that I am not the only one this has happened to with newer pyrex. I am just glad it didn't explode with the boiling water in it, and burn my feet or my dogs. Buyers Beware!!!!"
58847,1,Some garbled text,"This edition has a nice photo of Longstreet, but early garbled text lead me to switch to a typo free edition, which was also cost free! I retained this edition as a back up, but the free edition has given me no cause to re-open this one."
58852,1,Our Ed Wood?,"I've spent years trying to figure out the appeal of Oliver Stone films. I've now seen this film twice in that effort, and I hereby give up. This is trite, full of overblown cliches aimed at...who knows? Does anyone really enjoy this goop? There's 4 times more fun in an Ed Wood movie than this plodding morass. Can anyone name me a single moment of Fun in this pretentious exercise?"
58870,1,Skip them all,"After seeing them all, I can safely recommend that you avoid any Chan film with the word ""Stars"" anywhere in the title. One has a good fight scene in a Coke (Pepsi?) factory, but other than that they are pointless and irritating. Long, grueling scenes of them all wanting to get into bed with a girl get old VERY fast."
58922,1,Too Bad - Potential is Definitely There,"If you are a fan of Chinese themed games, you may think at first that you want to try this game out. DON'T. Basically, you are the first son of Qin Shih Huang Di, the first Emperor of China. While you are responsible for the troops in one of the northern outposts, your father died, leaving the throne yours to claim. One of your younger brothers is plotting with one of the most powerful ministers to kill you, and ordered the troops to arrest and kill you. Once a king-to-be, you are now a renegade - wanted dead for being the crown prince.Sounds good? Here is the problem. The graphic is extremely lacking, since the game seems to be using 256 color palette rather than 16 or 32 bit colors. Also, the game tries to replicate Diablo II but it failed to replicate the one thing that makes people play Diablo II - playability.Overall, I give it 1 star since I cannot even bear playing the game. I love Chinese based games, but this game is just too much."
58956,1,I am a stunad for renting this celluloid wasteland,"On a bizniz trip in Houston, I was bored silly in my motel room so started cruising the amazon rental movies from years past. I really like Joe Piscopo and after reading the 'Don't be a stunad' review, which was a rave, I rented this 'wise guy' fecal matter. I give it one star for Piscopo who makes me laugh just looking at his simple face, always on the precipice of mirth. The movie was so poor that, despite having absolutely nothing else to do, I shut it off midway through. Believe it or not, I picked up the Bible and found more entertainment in the 2nd Book of Chronicles, arguably the most monotonous chunk of the Old Testament one can find. God bless us. All of us."
58972,1,OLD & CRUMBLED,"The bars I received were crumbled on one end & light tan in color, which indicates OLD chocolate. That end of the bar tasted awful. I have seen that a million times & I recognize what it means. The other end of the bars had melted & reset, but still tasted OK & were the correct color for fresh chocolate. A second set was sent to me at no charge, however, the same was true of those. Also appeared that the company was not too happy with my complaint, as the second set arrived in a small, smashed box with a tiny piece of bubble wrap floating around loose in the box & had not been secured to the bars with tape to protect them."
58991,1,humph!,I had to buy this one because the first one broke and it couldn't be repaired.RENT a paint sprayer and save yourself the trouble.
59053,1,Gregory Disappoints Once Again,"What I find so troubling about many of Gregory's books is her failure to present a heroine who isn't insipidly weak. This book, ""The Favored Child,"" and ""The Virgin's Lover"" both spring to mind. ""The Favored Child"" had great potential in terms of Gregory's beautiful writing, but Julia's consistent inability to stand up to Richard ruined the book for me. I found the characters neither realistic nor sympathetic. After 400 pages of drama, I quickly flipped to the last page and read Julia's letter to James. I immediately threw the book down because I was so disgusted. I would ask Gregory to write a book where the heroine actually has a backbone.I understand that the modern mindset greatly colors my thinking when it comes to a woman's role in society, but no one expects that degree of historical accuracy from 'pleasure' reading such as this.I'll throw one bone to Gregory - her descriptions of Bath were marvelous."
59116,1,Two-sided?,"This review is purely about the DVD, not the movie. It's an old run, and hence is a two-sided disc. Given that, the transfer is good, but it's time to update the edition with a multilayered disc.Additionally, there are no extras with this edition.My advice is to wait for another edition."
59173,1,Terrible,"One of the worst films I have ever seen. Bad direction, bad acting, bad writing and predictable ending."
59257,1,"good product, but bad ordering experience","We lost OVER a month's use (a long time considering weight/age limit) because of wrong item being shipped out to us TWICE! We returned the first wrong sleeper & then received another of the wrong model. Amazon took forever to finally return our money to us in the end, so we had to wait a while to order from another company to get the right product. Very disappointed that we had to deal with taking it to UPS to return, & that we lost so much time. Really felt we should have received a gift credit or something for our trouble.That said, the Euro Mini is great for a low platform bed - would have worked better if our bed didn't have the ""lip"" (Ikea Malm). Was still very nice to have her at eye level for the short time we used it.If you want this, shop somewhere else."
59272,1,Disappointing for Bob Morris,"My first Bob Morris book was Baja Florida. It took about 60% to get to the really exciting part but I thoroughly enjoyed the thrill and excitment. This book seemed to drag on and on with tedious detail of a political fight in Jamaica. In the end Monk DeVane who was supposed to be dead shows up for about 10 minutes only to die again in an explosion and then the book ends. This Morris novel was painful to get through only to have a mediocre ending. Morris is a favorite of mine, but this one was a big yawn for me."
59293,1,Could Be So Much Better!,"Here is a book I wanted to like. It is a great little idea where a philosophical perspective is presented as a thought experiment -- not necessarily by the author -- and then the author 'reviews' the perspective. The good part about the book is that the perspectives and thought experiments are usually of some interest. The bad/sad/plaid part is that the author makes little or nothing of the interests he devises by collecting the perspectives. The reviews that follow each are distant and trivial.This could have been so much better if the discussion enhanced the perspectives, if there were some type of folding, multiplying, or invention. An interesting idea, a poor execution."
59349,1,not for my age group,The allure magazine is not what I expected and looking to cancel the subscription I am 46 year old female and the articles are more geared for females in there 20's- 30's Looking for a magazine more into this phase of my life
59390,1,"Stylish and functional, but short-lived","The upsides: This is one of the few high-rise faucets I could find that wasn't absurdly, ostentatiously high. The extra height makes washing dishes much easier. The nozzle puts out a nicely diffused, almost frothy stream. It doesn't pull out or return quite as easily as other pull-outs I've installed, but it works, and the high-rise design makes the pull-out function less necessary. (Can't get my wife to push the nozzle all the way back in after she pulls it out, though.) The single control handle works very smoothly. It doesn't have spray, but it does have a nicely diffused stream.The downside: The internal seals gave out after about two years, pouring water into my under-sink cabinet. I couldn't find a way to replace the seals. So I bought a Price Pfister. Doesn't look as pretty, but it cost half as much and I bet it lasts 20 years."
59418,1,Product hasn't arrived yet...,"I'm still waiting for this product, it hasn't arrived; it was supposed that on January 13, 2011 - February 14, 2011 but it's now June and I don't think it will... I rated it with one star because the site didn't allow it to leave it in blank...but for me, they don't deserve any..."
59482,1,Ceramic is not a great material for knives,"I was very disappointed by the performance of this knife. Moisture, in general, sticks to the blade and produces more friction than that of a metallic knife when you're cutting into something. This particular model is meant for vegetables and fruits, but my cheapo Ikea 365 has a much smoother cut.The blade is also easily damaged. For example, you can't wash this in the dishwasher or apply blunt force to the edge (ex: crushing garlic). You really have to baby it.Ceramic just isn't that great of a material for knives. I would not recommend buying this or any other ceramic knives."
59495,1,"LAME outdated, mainstream information","This magazine is a joke. The first three issues had nothing that could not be found in a twenty year old issue of Self magazine. It reads like a statin advertisement, spewing the same old bull about high cholesterol without mentioning any of the myriad negative side effects of statins (like killing you of liver disease before you are even old enough to have heart disease).It contains very little research information, and nothing that is original or cutting edge in regards to prevention or nutrition. Complete waste of money!"
59604,1,too many ads,there's too many ads and not enough articles. Self magazine and marie claire are better for this reason.
59672,1,"Mediocre, Milleninnium Mess!","Don't fall for the marketing hype or the attractive pie shapedtin. This edition is fair at best. The sports catagory is awful, elvisquestions too plentiful and the history only goes back to WWII! I love to play trivail pursuit, but was greatly disappointed with the questions. Many are very vague and had repetitive subjects. The card holder is too small and awkward for the cards. The transparent pieces caused several near fights because the colors were had to discern. I do not recommend this edition..for the misleading marketing and poor design of this Millennium Mess!"
59679,1,For the desperate-to-lose-weight housewife,"Was once an excellent, reliable mag, with all sorts of helpful information on different subjects. Now, it's mostly adverts with a few pages of info and recipes here and there, and half of it seems to be geared toward housewives who are intent upon watching every calorie. I guess if you're ocd about your weight and you're looking for another way to beat yourself up, this is for you."
59730,1,Zakk's let a Ozzy/Zakk era and Pride & Glory fan down.,"I just can not believe that Zakk or any of his fans would like this crap. First, I will admit Zakk is a really talented guitarists and has released some decent music in the past. But this is rubbish, distorted, enhancing his playing skill in the studio twisting knobs and too much is lost with him playing everything but the kitchen sink. Rather than use a decent drummer, he uses a bad one who's banging really doesn't fit together with his playing or his attempted effort. I'm just going to ignore this stuff and continue to listen to only his Ozzy stuff, Pride & Glory and Book Of Shadow releases."
59737,1,Kiplinger's Personal Finance Magazine,"I would love to review this magazine, but unfortunately I have yet to receive any issues. Instead I have been getting ""Field & Stream"", which I did not order. I wrote the so-called ""Amazon Help Dept."" over a week ago asking them to check this situation out. They promised a response withing 24 hours, but I have heard nothing back. Maybe this review will get some action. I hope so."
59753,1,Exaclty Who IS This????,"These songs are all very cute and romantic, but where is my RAUNCH? C'mon now, y'all know that even the sweetest, purest, truest love has to have SOME stank in it to work. The voices are still there, but most of this material would be better off with the Backstreet Boyz or O-Town or even The Carpenters. These are real men with real voices-find material that allows them to show that in ALL of it's forms. Please, at least put SOME of that good ole stank a dank dank back in it! I guess they call this maturing, but I call it getting stale-REAL FAST! And that last one ""How Long"" sounds borderline country-WHAT?? Where is DEVANTE SWING????"
59770,1,Polished . . but absurd,"I've been a subscriber almost since the inception. It's a high quality, slick, polished magazine, but I've finally had enough of the ridiculous content. The Nov. 2010 issue was the final eye opener. Examples . . . Page 80 is trying to tell us that wearing an OUTERWEAR VEST over a suit is a positive fashion statement. Then, at the bottom of the same page, they recommend a SCARF with an $870.00 price tag. This reminds me of an old Groucho Marx quote. "" Any club that would have me as a member, I don't want to belong to."" Well . . . any magazine that promotes the above, plus many more absurdities, I choose not to follow. I'll find something else. Maybe Men's Journal ?"
59839,1,more from the machine,"boring. trite.If you feel that not enough of your life is spent looking at commercials, SPIN magazine is for you. The reporting is wonderful, if you've never experienced music outside of MTV. Don't waste your time, the brain damage you'll have from reading a year's subscription of SPIN you can achieve quicker and cheaper by drinking a gallon of gasoline."
59938,1,horse sh*t,Why did they put Kurt Kobain and Kirk Hammet ahead of Eddie Van Halen and Carlos Santana in the top 100 guitarist article? this proves that these retards don't know music.
59946,1,At least I only paid 46 cents an issue...,"At least I didn't pay much. Awful magazine, but it'll make for great paper to help burn firewood this winter."
59984,1,Comforter Quality Problems,"The design of this comforter is beautiful and will make any bedroom look great. However, there are problems with quality. The description mentions that the comforter has a rope around the edge of the comforter. This is a problem area. The comforter starts to fray where the comforter meets the rope. I thought this might have been an isolated incident when we exchanged the first comforter but now it is happening to the new comforter as well. This has occurred with both comforters combined in a period of less than six months. This also occurred with one of the pillow shams where the material meets the border trim.My wife and I are very disappointed as we expected a quality product from Veratex. While we love how the comforter set looks, we will be returning it and switching to another brand as the quality problems are unacceptable."

60159,1,"typical of its genre--long on ideas, short on reality","I thought this was a good deal like a lot of the wedding books I bought for my recent wedding. It has lots of cool ideas and much good information on wedding planning. What it *lacks* (like so many other books) is *any* sense of proportion: the sense that most brides are working with a limited budget and have limited time that they are willing to devote to the wedding planning. Come on--for most of us it's a wedding, not the invasion of Normandy! Perfectionistic princesses have enough wedding planners. What we need is one for the rest of us. The only book of that type I've seen is ""Weddings for Grownups,"" which I DO unconditionally recommend for all brides."
60244,1,Double check this one,Received both mirrors broken....which turned out to be a blessing because these are not for a 98 wrangler....but they were returned for credit without objection....
60283,1,not that bad,"Godfather III isn't completely horrible, but it certainly doesn't live up to the first two. Out of the three movies, Part III is the only one where I was bored watching. Sofia Coppola as Mary was a terrible decision by Coppola himself; I was actually glad at the end when Mary was gunned down. Part III does have lots of admirable qualities, the vistas of Sicily are wonderful and the plot concerning the Vatican is semi-engaging. However, the bad parts to the film ultimately outweigh the good and I can't say that I would recommend Part III to others for viewing. Yes, the ending of Part III was tragic and powerful. But, the ending to Part II was cinematic masterpiece. I like to think of the Godfather Part III not as a continuation of the series but rather as a footnote that I can easily ignore in light of Part I and Part II's brilliance."
60313,1,ONLY FOR THE ARTSY FOLK,"For the 99% of viewers, take my word for it, skip this movie. It was boring. You can say all you want about the beautiful scenes, but if the story can't hold you, it isn't worth it."
60328,1,not good,Dyson Mini Turbine ToolThis tool was no good because it did not fit the Dyson Vacuum cleaner that I purchased at the same time.There should have been more information as to which tools fit which machines.
60384,1,@#$% this game,(...). it is the worst game in the world. i bought this for my 3 year old son and he hates it!!!!!! (...). my 3 year old already knows algebra 1 and earth science. we paly many games like stratego and risk. now this game u collect ducks . the first person to get the matching color of 3 ducks wins!!? (...). if u want a good game for your 3 yearold get History of the world. me and my son play that all the time. it is the best!
60398,1,Terrible! DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME!,"I just used the zorb product on my carpet. I followed the instructions and then some. I meticulously vacuumed my carpet before starting, then sprinkled the zorb, scrubbed, scrubbed, scrubbed with the special zorb attachment for my Dyson and then waited an hour. I then vacuumed again, and again, and again just to make sure I had gotten it all out of my carpet. The whole process (excluding wait time) took about an hour (and the area I was doing was not that large). I was extremely disappointed when my carpet looked the EXACT same!! The reason I was using this product was to get a few small stains that my toddlers had spilled. These were about the size of dimes and were not very dark or noticeable and yet they looked the exact same. I did not even notice a difference in the carpet fibers like some other users had seen. My carpet is about 3 years old, and does not have a lot of wear and tear...it is a loft area.I would NOT recommend this product."
60509,1,Danco Tub Spout,"If you like leaks and wet walls, buy this product. What engineering genius designed this piece of junk? Water was diverter to the back of the spout and leaked between the back of the tub and the spout. Lots of potential for wall damage. I thought the diverter was designed to send the water up to the shower head. Another lesson in getting what you pay for."
60515,1,"tedious album, what a huge dissapointment!!!!","some people said this Zeppelin album is bad, some said it is good. but I have to say honesty that this Led Zep album is a very weak and boaring album,.....the first and the second albums were better in their early days! For Zep fanatical fans, this album is certainly always good..... but I don't think that Zeppelin is the best rock band of all....."
60556,1,Disappointing,"I purchased this movie in blue ray for I thought that the color and dimension of the picture quality would be excellent. However, I was very disappointed that the color was very weak and lack depth. I saw The Ten Commandments on network TV a few days after receiving the blue ray version. The network TV version had the true Technicolor that the blue ray lacked. It was as if my blue ray version's color was drained."
60625,1,Made me literally sick,"I'm a Christian who loves to study my Bible and other religious writings. When I first began reading the Urantia papers I was mentally intrigued but became literally sick to my stomach. After praying about what I was reading I realized that these words about God's creation and His plan were not from Him at all. The more I read, the more I saw how the teaching in the papers contradicted Biblical doctrine (there are far too many to address in this setting). Be warned that these papers do not represent the truth found in the Bible. Jesus said take heed that no man (or spirit) deceives you. There is undoubtedly a master plan for this planet and mankind. God has a plan and so does satan. If you enjoy good science fiction, you might enjoy the Urantia papers; if you want to hear from the Creator Himself, read the Holy Bible - truly the most amazing book ever written. Your eternal destiny is determined by who's plan you choose to believe and follow."
60722,1,Motor City Costs (...) to play,"Do not buy this product unless you wish to pay (the cost) per year in service fees for ""online"" play which is the only mode the game will function. I could not even install it because I would not provice EA.com with my credit card so they could start the service contract and billing me in my sleep."
60873,1,Warranty?,"This product lasted 14 months for me and had been suitable for my purposes.After 14 months, it just died.The manufacturer has a 2 year warranty and provides no address in the product information; instead it instructs the buyer to contact the ""dealer.""Amazon, from whom I bought this product, refers the buyer to the 3rd party seller who only accepts returns for 90 days. Tried ""googling"" this company's contact information and I got an address in Korea.Metronomes are electronically rather simple and this product should have lasted much longer. This may have been a defective device. However, the product gets one star because of essentially leaving me without a way to use the warranty."
60978,1,Terrible...just terrible,"Well, I rented this flick just to see what it is like. The acting was non-existent. CGI effect was laughable. Plot was thin and predictable. The characters were a joke. The only good thing about this was Glori Anne Gilbert who portrayed the porn star one of the crew constantly fantasized about... OK, make that two good things... LOL! :)"
61018,1,Let's just call it an old story...,"I'm not sure if one can compare a fantasy epic to another, but Tad Williams just makes me think of what Tolkien would have done, had he been an American of the late 20th century. And I don't mean this as a positive comment. Technically he is a capable writer, but everything in this saga speaks of utter lack of ideas. A moralistic, black-and-white tale with no inspiration, it seems. Characters are thin as paper."
61064,1,Can't use it,"Be very careful about buying this product. It does not work on XP's home edition. Unless you have XP Professional, you are stuck with a very expensive doorstop."

61153,1,Not good,"I ordered three items of Aveeda. One was this Pure Abundance Hair spray. Condtioner came within a very short while. Still waiting on the shampoo but the hair spray just arrived yesterday. Well, I used a tad on my hand to feel it and the odor of this product blew me away. Unlike another poster stating a devine smell, this smell was all but devine. It had a strong medicinal, alcohol, smell. I could not use this product and smell this bad. I called Amazon and they are taking care of this. Never again, will I buy health/beauty products on line."
61164,1,Not all that good.,"This one would have been impossible to watch were it not for its pretty good costume and set design. It looked as though at the beginning that this was going to be a decent medieval tale of adventure, but horribly cheesy dialogue and subpar acting soon put an end to that. Sadly not even the presence of Poitier can save this movie. There's only so much a great actor can do with such a bad script, surrounded by bad actors, and forced to sport such a lame hair-doo."
61265,1,disappointed,"I was disappointed in this book. The title is promising, however, the content is sophomoric - a rather juvenile style of writing. This is basically a woman's journal entries, chronicling her personal growth through her reading experiences. Her reading material is dated; there are many newer and finer sources for personal growth opportunties. Her frequent comments of, ""you might not be interested in this but, . . . "" are tedious. Her frequent pauses to listen to a tape and then writing, ""I'm back . . . "" are irritating. I don't know how the editor let her get away with her repetitious non-information. Wait, yes, I do. The reason this book was published is the gimmick of a ninety-year-old woman writing her memoirs. Given all that, if you need a reading list for personal growth and enjoy the ramblings of a woman who is constantly working on personal growth, then this book may be for you."
61380,1,Not worth it,"We used this unit only a few times after putting it in the minivan. Besides not being able to read discs at times, the unit itself (not the battery) overheats after 30+ minutes of use and shuts down. The supplied headrest mounting bags cover the remote sensor so the remote control is useless while the unit is mounted in a vehicle."
61627,1,Patch Awful,"People were hung at Nuremburg for less than this crime against humanity. I found it addictively appalling, in its cringingly predictable and patronising plot, script, music and Robin Williams playing his usual so-brilliant-he's-nearly-insane-but-wacky-and-all-too-humane schtick.And then the only fit woman gets murdered and it's all over ickily washed over in about 5 minutes, while Adams gets off a medicine-no-licence rap (aside from theft of hospital supplies) with some illogical rant to the gallery. Evil that got one star off me only so I could post it."

61699,1,Not What E-40 Normally Does,"This Album Is not what I call a album First 4 trackz are the tightest with the tightest beats. Best track on here is ""I practice Looking Hard"" probably one of the best trackz he eva made in his whole career I love that song but otha than that ""Captain save a hoe"" and ""Mail Man"" are a discrace. He shouldnt have even made this cd until he got more trackz"
61715,1,Came with a rip.,"My son loves Elmo. So I was excited to find this I thought he could carry it around with him. It wouldn't be too big or too small. However, he's not interested in him at all! And worst of all, Elmo came with a rip in his arm."

61841,1,One way to start a fire,"The best thing to do with this book is use it for kindling. I found this book in a give away pile at my college and saw that it received good reviews. Then, after trudging through it, I realized that I should have left it there. It starts off interesing, but fell drastically short of the expectations I had."
61861,1,"cheap, cheap, cheap","One would hope that Morbisch production DVDs would all be published to the same standard, but this one is clearly not as good as some of the others (Grafin Mariza for example). The production can only be likened to the sound of the vogel -- cheap, cheap, cheap. First -- no subtitles -- for an operetta that has large amounts of dialogue this is not forgivable-- unless you understand German much of the program is uninteligible. 2nd - this DVD unlike other DVDs from Morbisch does not have a 16:9 option -- only 4:3. 3rd -- close ups of characters slapping mosquitos suggest a bored tape editor. Save your money, unless you have a fixation on Der Vogelhandler or Carl Zeller your experience with operetta will be better served with other DVDs."
61904,1,Elevator Music,"I'm really surprised at the number of great reviews appearing here for this CD. I am a huge Moody Blues fan, and I own all of their albums, and I had high hopes after the abysmal ""Keys of the Kingdom"" CD. I keep listening to Strange Times hoping I like it better with continued listening, but I don't. I can barely get through most of John Lodges elevator music, and there isn't really a standout song on the whole CD. I really think these great reviews are a result of lowered expectations. After ""Keys"" I agree that ""Strange Times"" is better...but not by much. Where is Mike Pinder when you need him?"
61978,1,Discover Aruba VHS - Mark Drenth,"This is only a short video of about 30 minutes. It certainly is not a Hollywood production; probably 2 guys with a camcorder did the whole thing. It was taken in 1993, so it's already 7 years old. It starts with a commercial for ALM airlines also. Don't expect any real specific information, only a broad overview. Overpriced ..."
61997,1,horrible,As usual in these cds the bbbs are awful. They always sing the exact same way and all of the songs sound exactly the same to others of their own and other teeny-boppers. But what can you expect from a group put together by a major record label?
62045,1,Looks are deceiving,"While this kettle is pretty to look at, its functionality is questionable. Since you cannot fill the kettle more than halfway without risking complete boil-over, the ""2 quart"" size is doubtful. I find that you cannot keep the whistle/stopper open for any extended period of time because of the way it's designed; the lid prevents the mechanism from going back far enough to remain open. Pouring from the kettle is awkward, usually requiring two hands (one to hold the kettle, one to hold the stopper open). The whistle itself sounds like something being strangled and/or ready to explode, depending on how much water is in it. If you only want one or two cups of tea and don't mind the occasional steam burn when pouring the water, this kettle is for you. This is the first time I have been disappointed in a Kitchenaid product. Here's hoping it's an aberration."
62050,1,big mistake,"this text is filled with so many errors. sentences end in the middle of an explaination leaving you without any conclusion. this text is a required purchase for my landscape construction class at my university and i can't believe the errors have not yet been corrected! without a knowledgeable instructor to correct the many errors, this book will confuse anyone who is trying to learn from it. i do not recommend this book."
62068,1,Electronizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz,"Avant perhaps, but not exactly hard. This is spacey electronica, dull and slightly annoying. Good to listen to when stoned or sewing."
62077,1,Miniature Edition-- Be careful NO ONE notices that !!!!,This product is garbage.If you look at the picture it says Miniature Edition.It is NOT the same as the Full Edition of this book by the same name.it really just went right in the garbage.it told me NOTHING useful.....I saw the Full Edition in a book store & that is the one you want...
62136,1,Very small book,"This book is less than 1/2"" thick. I gave it a low rating because of the cost. ...The information is very basic and the equations simple."
62138,1,Not one of Georgette's best.,The book is way too long winded. Too much detail about secondary characters and not enough about the main two. I was somewhat disappointed. Not one of her best. Georgette Heyer still remains one of my favorite authors.
62155,1,Almost all the good parts were in the commercials,"This movie is extremely slow and not very funny. I love Tina Fey and I just could not get past how boring it is, and I really tried. Save your money and watch the commercials for it."
62195,1,Saddle does not remain in set position,"The unit seems to be well made, but the mechanism that the two saddles ride on are under-engineered. There are two small thumbscrews used to secure the seat position, and the do not keep the seats positioned as set.I set the two saddles for a spacing comfortable for me, but after riding only a few yards, the seats had drifted tightly together, which nullifies their rocking capability.I tried many times, trying to tighten them as hard as possible, but the seats always moved tightly together."
62262,1,disappointing heating pad,"I just purchased a new heating pad to replace the one I had for years. I read the reviews and could not decide between all the choices, price being the primary concern. The saying you get what you paid for is true !! The heating pad works ok but the outer edges of this pad scratch you and the covering cloth is very cheap. Pay more and be happier."
62332,1,Not appropriate for family viewing,"Period dramas are a favorite with our family, and I was taking a peek at this to see if I liked it well enough for purchasing. I was drawn in by the wonderful acting and the plot, but then was disturbed by the explicit sexual scenes. Why must they always ruin a good thing with displays of mature adult material, especially when it seems so out of character for a period of drama of this time? One scene shows two men kissing and discussing their love affair, and the other of a man showing up in a woman's bedroom unannounced and without having so much as established a relationship. This is PBS Masterpiece Theater, for crying out loud. There could have been a better way to introduce the scene and the character, without going to such lengths. Thankfully I was able to preview this online without spending any money, but I am sorely disappointed that the director did not find a different way to tell the same story and make it family friendly."
62382,1,Beginning but not More,"I would like to have had a more detailed description of this series. The cast and setting certainly makes one think the story is off to a good start and indeed there might be a great story to be told. However, there was no explanation of the homosexual relations beginning in episode 1 season 1. I would rather know that some of the entertainment is about sexual themes and then I may choose to avoid it. Which is now my plan."
62426,1,"Player excellent, customer service very poor.","Okay, the player is excellent, and I have no problems with it. But customer support for it's software is very very bad.I was forced to register the software it came with for a $10 fee. I then upgraded my system to Windows98 (from Win95) in order download music to the player, but when I re-installed the software, it wanted me to register again.I emailed Diamond and asked if I'd be charged $10 again, and their response (after 3 days) was for me to ""upgrade"", but they never even answer my one question. Not only that, but they didn't specify for me to upgrade what! It was only one sentence. I've replied back to them and they still haven't gotten back to me after 5 days!The software is clunky, not very intuitive.The player is a fun gadget, and I like it, but service is very, very poor.If you buy one, assume you're on your own."
62445,1,One of the worst movies I ever saw,"Mullholland Drive is definately one of the worst movies I ever saw.If you understand the plot, please email me and let me know. Myself and a few million others would love to know.The movie is beautifully made. But there are many stories that in no way are connected.Lynch may be some type of genius in some circles, but this movie, is a disaster.As I said, if you are one of the nine people in the USA who understood the plot.... please clue me in."
62464,1,So sad,"I was very excited to finally watch this movie after hearing all the hype, I love these kind of movies. But sadly after watching it twice, I have to say this [was disappointing] ! The first round I didn't quite get the whole story so I actually sat through the whole thing again a second time. Well, I think I got the story all right. Some areas were put together cleverly, the acting wasn't too bad, but the story itself is just terrible. Nothing exciting or original !! For those who compares this with Pulp Fiction or Memento, please don't ! Its nothing like them. The otheres were clever, this is plan stupid."
62568,1,"flying insects, not!",I bought this item to deter flies because it says it will work with flying insects. Flies will actually land and sit on it without any apparent problems. I gave it to charity.
62639,1,didn't really talked about the things I wnated,"the rader,my son compied that this book had way too many ""do it your self"" stuff.He was expecting more information on actuall astronomy,like black holes est"
62808,1,mediocre,"Not particularly scary, and rather ridiculous at times. It wasn't horrible, but it was still a let down. I was a little impatient about the film just finally ending."
62823,1,Way too small,I have two toy breeds and one has difficulty getting through the door. The small size may work well for cats but only the smallest dogs can use it.
62825,1,Disappointed,"After being urged by an associate to purchase this Neiko Digital Caliper, I purchased it and was anxious to put it to work. I brought it along on an important project during which I would be verifying dimensions on a large number of SKUs. It quickly became apparent that the readings were not consistent. Smaller dimensions came in OK, however, when I would go past about 7"" or so the accuracy seemed to disappear. This was very frustrating and I reverted to using my tape measure instead for nearly the entire project. At this point I consider the purchase of this product to have been a complete waste of time and money. The saying ""you get what you pay for"" has been proven correct in this instance."
62827,1,It never has worked,"This product shipped broken. After putting the battery in and carefully reading the poorly translated directions, it didn't work. Messed with it for about 20 minutes during which the display ready correctly for all of about 5 seconds.It's CRAP! I got ripped off and you probably will too."
62829,1,Dreadful Film,"Save your money and stay away from this stinker. I generally like all of Michael Douglas movies, but this movie is a COMPLETE disaster. You end up not liking ANY of the CHARACTERS and the aproximate 1 and half hour movie takes an ETERNITY to end. JUST PLAIN BAD. Even if you have an hour and a half to waste, go outside and jog."
62842,1,"five star movie, one star dvd","""Menace On The Mountain"" is such a marvelous motion picture, but on this DVD release, Disney has cut eight minutes out of this movie. The movie is 89 minutes on the VHS release, but only 81 minutes on the DVD release. The 89 minute version is far superior than the 81 minute version. I can't stand it when Disney issues movies on DVD in a shortened version. Disney should issue all of their movies on DVD uncut and unedited."
62859,1,The narrator was so monotone I couldnt even listen...,"The book seemed so interesting, and I tried several times to listen to it, but it was so terribly narrated I just could not focus on the words. I found my mind wandering while the narrator droned on and on and on...he was putting me to sleep as I drove!"
63012,1,Not as amazing as made out to be.,"I was required to read this book for a school projet, and I took my teachers advice and came to the book with an open mind and high expectations based upon his praise. The first chapters are interesting and fun, as you feel for the character and his life struggles. But as time trudges on, I began to realise that this book was written by either a mentally challanged person or someone who is just plain dumb. While the lack of conventional grammar and punctuation is sometimes regarded as 'genious' I found it annoying and childish. I heard in his other book he became an English teacher? I hope not. That's embarrasing to be an English teacher and write like that.Call me what you will for insulting one of the 'best written books of our century', as my English professor called it, but I found it childish, immature, and highly unbelievable from the point of a allegeded memior."
63041,1,Tremendous disappointment,"What is wrong with some moviemakers these days? I used to get angry at critics for constantly falling back on films pre-80's as anything of any value but now I'm starting to see their point. Everything looks like it was made by MTV studios lately...Chili Palmer was a supercool tough guy in Get Shorty. All of a sudden Cedric the Entertainer and his ""posse"" of idiots has Chili by the balls? What gives? If Chili talked trash in GS he backed it up - now he sells out to this hip hop culture crap. Are you serious??However, Christina Millian is flat acting wise but she sure is nice to look at."
63087,1,I used to somewhat like this band....,"but it just gets kind of old, this album has a few gems, and the rest is just screaming and pure noise. the best songs are the ones where there is actual singing in it, it provides a good mix and a change of pace.""Wait and Bleed"" is by far the best song on the album and i never seem to get tired of it. ""Surfacing"" is also pretty good along with ""Spit it out"" and ""Me inside""(Although a little too short.The rest of the album is just a bunch of incomprehensible screaming, deafening guitars, a couple of clowns(literally) hitting trash cans and a drummer thats so good he really seems out of his element."
63146,1,Like Nailing Metaphysical Jell-O to the Wall,"Sorry, maybe it's just me but I just don't get it. I'm more of a practical bent but this book required slogging through a whole lot of vapor to get anything out of it.There are books you read where you have a hard time putting them down. Then there are books you have to force yourself to finish. ""A New Earth"" fell into the latter category for me. I had heard much of the Oprah-cized hype over the book which I met with high expectations.At the end, though, it seemed over-reaching in its quest for spiritual profundity. Be mindful. Be in the moment. Be a human being, not a human doing.You could have boiled it down to that and spared us all about 280 pages."
63265,1,you liars,"i paid for this vest way back in september and was told several times it was on back order, that i was recieving coupons and eventually my vest, so far it is december and i have recieved nothing not my vest not my money back no emails, you are the biggest liars and scammers i have everheard of, what kind of scam are you running, do not buy from this company they wripped me off and they will do it to you, i dont know how you people sleep at night and thanks for the grief"
63306,1,"Yes, people. This album really does suck.","Sammy Hagar can sing okay, but he can't write lyrics if they crawled up his leg and bit him in the arse. Anyway, Dave was what the band was all about - crazy guitar and crazy lyrics. Eddie's guitar playing only got better over the years, but seriously, guys, lose the Cherones and Hagars, and get back to where the music belongs."
63314,1,lost for words,"I visited some friends of mine in Norway about a year ago and got this book before i went . It really was not any help to me though . Most of the words that are in it are out dated and not used in Norway today . I also tried to use this dictionary to translate letters that my friends had sent and it is more confuseing than helpful . Might be ok for someone that speaks Norwegian , but for an English speaker i find to be no real help ."
63319,1,Watch out for same cd with different title,"This album is the same as the album titled ""Gettin' High On Neil Young"" and ""The Ultimate Pickin' On Neil Young"" though the last one has three extra tracks tacked onto the end:15. Rockin' The Free World16. Country Girl17. Harvest MoonIt isn't a bad compilation, but sort of Bluegrqss elevator music. Not worth paying for three times though!"
63347,1,Teaches how to be RUDE!,"Sheesh! This toy is fairly durable (stickers can come off of course though) - but other than that, I am NOT impressed.Sure as another reviewer stated, a 6 mth old will not ""get"" the attitude the voice has in the toy - but who wants to hear an attitude being projected to your kiddo at any age???I tried to sell this at a garage sale for $1. Needless to say - many of my other toys sold - this one went to the local thrift store! ... I shoulda thrown it away though."
63349,1,Received in poor condition,"I ordered the book as a gift for my daughter who is getting married. I received it in a very timley fashion, however the entire contents reeked of cigarette smoke and there were very visible stains on the top of the pages. I contacted the seller and she said they had a leak or something and she did not notice the stains. She contacted me very quickly and was very apologetic. I returned the book media mail. I have not checked to see if the expenses have been refunded. I am very skeptical about buying on line especially since the seller said the book was new."
63359,1,An embarrassment to the Frigidaire name,"After only two years, the pump failed and needs to be replaced at a cost of $300. That pretty much meets my criteria for a piece of junk. There will be no more Frigidaire appliances in our home."
63373,1,Torturous 90 Minutes,"The most atheistic, nihilistic, depressing movie I have ever seen. Death is preferred over life in this movie. Love is called ""the blackest of all plagues"". The message of this movie is that life is meaningless and that ideals are ridiculous and absurd. I was hoping for a moral at the end of the story, but sadly, this movie is just gloomy nihilism with attractive actors. Western Civilization is pining away in a morass of depressed meaningless bc of too many movies like this."
63458,1,good memory card but not compatible with my canon xt,"I have two old lexar compact flash and never had a problem with them,so I bought this 2GB cf,80X and I used it 3 times and last time I tried to see the pictures I had there,it said in the camera screen that the compact flash was corrupted and the pictures were lost!.I checked on the lexar website and it says there that there is a problem when using this memory card on a Canon XT digital camera,I wish I knew this before!.Now I have to send the memory card to them so they can recover the images and if not,then they will send a replacement.DO NOT USE THIS MEMORY CARD ON A CANON XT!"
63567,1,Cheap junk,"Within the first few months, the hook on top separated from the rest of the feeder, and it shattered on the ground. It's all plastic, and not nearly strong enough for the weight."
63605,1,Terrible prenatal yoga video,When I think of yoga I think of smooth flowing motions. This is not represented in this video. You do a pose then stop rearrange the ten pillows plus towels-which the video doesn't give you time for-and get in to the next pose. I didn't find it at all relaxing when I was pregnant. A complete waste of money.
63611,1,Good reviews; mediocre book,"All these glowing reviews really makes me wonder? I'm scratching my head trying to figure out why. The book is mediocre at best. Sure O'Reilly books are ""supposed"" to be the premiere tech authority but are they really? Is this book ""really"" that good?Did the authors plant these good reviews? Somethings fishy and I'd like to know what it is.I read this book. It is a rather ordinary reference book. The text is dry. Really dry. I think there are many other books that are much better."
63658,1,This CD [ smells],This CD [smells] and so does Linkin Park. They have no talent and are so overrated. Please buy something worth while...
63686,1,Terrible,Arrogant..... self serving and not worth the paper it is printed on. It was a waste of money to me.
63700,1,What an Awful Book,"In Street Wars, Tom Hayden goes qualitatively past forgiving thugs for their thuggery; he presents them as heroes, warriors born at the wrong time. The fault, the blame, in the book goes entirely to America for not taking the lead of SDS and the other New Leftists of Hayden's heyday. What a vision: Somehow a coalition of stupid violent thugs and college-age ""philosophers"" will feed and clothe the millions.The only positive value I see in this book is for its object-lessons in how ideology blinds. You see it best in Hayden's interviews and character profiles, where he can just report data like ""So-and-so fathered 5 children with four different women, never intending to support any of them, and killed three people, all before turning 18"" and then hustle to the point of the story, which is how horrible it is that we ""demonize"" such remarkable fellows. What garbage. Grow up, Tommy"
63709,1,what is to like?,"Considering that the 18th century is vastly different than our own, this book was a wasted opportunity to show the differences. How would a 20th or 21st centry miss cope with things such a chamber pot, foods, how about deodorant and tooth paste! One would think the Emily/Candace grew up with none of these things! What a silly book where no one is especially interesting."
63806,1,Look out for quality,"I bought two RC Express trains from Playmobil, one for my nephew and one for my daughter. It's a nice toy, but look out for quality. BOTH trains had the same problem. One of the wheels on the engine platform cracked (it's just plastic). It's a very expensive toy and I think that Playmobil should have done a better job putting their main component together."
63927,1,technical problems,"The music is 4 or 5 star; if you like Marty Robbins, you'll like the CD. This disc will not, however, play on a computer and cannot be ripped. I received one replacement from the seller and another from Bear Family, and all three had the same problem. Since this hasn't been an issue with my other 3,000 or 4,000 CDs that I've ripped, I assume the problem is not the CD drive in my computer (a fairly new HP CD/DVD burner). The CD does, however, play fine in my regular Sony audio CD player."
63981,1,Worst movie I've ever seen,"The movie one hour photo seemed an interesting film to me so i rent it, but then wow! What is that?Its one of the worst movies i have seen this year, the plot goes on and on so slow and eventually when you finish watching the movie you simply ask yourself: WHY? Does it really worth 90 minutes of your life?Well i did not seem to think so; Williams gave a nice performance but nothing more.Honestly, i expected much better."
64113,1,Gates come apart easily,"I have several brand of gates of this sliding variety, and this is the only one where the 2 ""sides"" come apart from each other entirely. It's as if the metal brackets are not fitted correctly (or not the right size), because depending on how you slide the sides, the 2 pieces come completely off the track. This also happens if someone takes the gate down and stores it on its ""side."" It works fine and looks fine if you handle with care, but I would not purchase this particular brand again."
64160,1,Charles Darwin's important influence on scientific thought,"Peter Bowler presents a synopsis of Charles Darwin's contributions to science, history, and culture. This book tries to provide a quick summary of the important periods in Darwin's life, touching briefly on each significant aspect.Much of the book is written in a somewhat technical way and is a bit too wordy. I had a difficult time maintaining my interest while I was reading some of the chapters. Certain areas deserved more coverage, like the reaction when Darwin went public with his theories.On the positive side, this book does give some good insight on Darwin's relationships with the other prominent scientists of his time and there are some moments where the slowness of the book becomes more interesting, like the section that covers Darwin's voyage of discovery aboard the Beagle. Overall, however, Bowler does not really present anything new or profound that we haven't heard before."
64214,1,meh,this book takes it self to serious. it reads like a middle school english text book. the only reason i would recomend it is if you are writeing a horror movie and you want to keep it true to the genera.
64270,1,Poor quality for Burt,He must have been going down the slide when he made this one. I can't say anything good about it.
64383,1,Non existant service--bad band--watch broke after 9 mo.,"I bought this watch and within one month the band broke. I also noticed that it lost about 2 minutes per week. Then after having it for a little less than 9 months, the larger movement stopped working altogether. I notified Amazon who refered me to the seller, OmniWatches. The phone number just rang and rang and they never answered my e-mail. Enough said."
64426,1,Hell Ride,This is a bad movie.Not well written of a story and also produce badly.The stars suck.Save your money.It was a waist of my time and money.
64451,1,Barry,Bought this unit in May of 2009. It worked perfectly for about a Year today It quit working.Installed new batteries in both units works when both Units are next to one another but when moved to It's existing outside location just dash lines.
64484,1,Amazon should not list this item,"I have been happy with hundreds of purchases made on Amazon. This item is so cheaply made it is dangerous. I knew the price was to good to be true. The item must be assembled. The metal edges were sharp. Once assemble, it was difficult to light. I am afraid to actually cook something. I will try...but this may be my last review....I am afraid, very afraid. It's my fault for buying this piece of crap, but I think Amazon is at fault for even listing it. Spend thee extra money and buy something good."
64538,1,Horse Heaven,"If you like to read 10 books at once this is for you. While this book falls under 'literature' and not just a story, I feel Ms. Smiley bit off more than she could chew. Each character could have been a book in itself, or a series of stories. I love to read 'horse stories', and the author has a knack for presenting a different approach. I didn't really enjoy reading this one."
64574,1,A Far Cry From Todd's Best,"This album is a far cry from Something Anything, A Wizard A True Star, etc. Something Anything, Hermit and Tortured Artist were all great records where Todd played all the instruments, sang all the vocals and wrote all the songs. This record is just weak to mediocre at best. The songs are weak. The drums and keyboards sound like a cheap Casio keyboard. I can't recall one chorus. Because I know and love the great music that has come from Todd Rundgren throughout his career, I can't give this effort anything more than 1 star."
64575,1,very unhappy,"Did not recieve my book, I emailed seller twice and they never responded. Would definately NOT order from again."
64662,1,NEVER worked!,"We ordered this exact model number from a different supplier than amazon.com. We tried 3 different batteries in it, all of which tested out okay on our battery tester. Within 24 hours we realized that sometimes the second hand moves (with a moderately loud tick, by the way), and other times it just sits there and wiggles. So obviously it can't keep time. So within 24 hours we called the supplier and they agreed to credit our account. They didn't even want it sent back.DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK!"
64678,1,Where do you go from the Bottom?!,"People need to understand how much better music with feeling is. Jessica is so far detatched from real music its undefinable. Real muscians care about their music and their fans. DO NOT BUY INTO THIS! ...for you own good, really."
64679,1,Disgusting pap!,"She has slaughtered Berlin's song Take My Breath Away, butchered Robbie Williams's Angels and the rest is all dire rubbish. She should be ashamed of herself, money grabbing fool! She is a shambles and i hope her recording career ends here. Garbage."
64695,1,The Source has put out better... ALOT better.,"The only reason I put this at 2 stars is because they put my man Luda on the disc. If it wasn't for him, I'd have this CD in the trash... oh wait, I own the 2Fast2Furious Soundtrack, Hip Hop Hits IS in the trash. Don't waste your money, this CD sucks."
64698,1,hack job!,"What a terrible magazine! There are at least 1 2:1 ad:content ratio for one. If you really want to read ads there are programs you can download to your computer that will pay you for clicking on advertisments. Probably half the content is actually an advertisment in disguise. They read like paid articles gushing with praises, promising how great your results will be if you just had the product. Through in a few worthless people profiles and you probably have 3-4 pages of readable content. There isn't even a whole lot of good pictures in this supposed photgraphy magazine! You'll do much better with something like popular photography or outdoor photographer."
64722,1,"Powerful motor, but poor line feed design.","I purchashed this item because of the rave reviews, I did see a few complaints about the line feed mechanism but I thought I'd give it a try anyway. This was a big mistake! The first time i tried to use this trimmer the line jammed and broke off at the feed hole withing 5 minutes. Had to take it apart, rewind string, of course I dropped the spool and had to rewind the entire thing. Five minutes later, same problem, and I noticed that the knife that attaches to the gaurd (that cuts line to size) was bent. Two minutes later, I see knife come flying out from bottem and string breaks at feed hole again.This trimmer is a true P.O.S.! Never even finnished one job for me before I have to return it. Do yourself a favor and get something else."
64761,1,Extinct,"This album shows why bands should stop calling thmeselves a name after half the band is gone. Only a third of the band is left and he's not great himself. If you want the real ""Soft Machine"" get the first album and leave this one alone. With this album the re-joined the ""Pink Floyd"" ranks (who the were often compared to) by not knowing when to stop."
64796,1,all computerized=embroidery?,"For on-line buyers, it's nice book to use if you have a embroidery machine, not just a computerized machine. the title is a bit misleading because not all computerized machines can perform the task which embroidery machines can do. Besides, the book seems to advocate mostly not only on the top of the line machines but also softwares as well. For those alreay own a embroidery machine, softwares, and special scanner, I doubted that they would run out of ideas and need help from this book."
64849,1,Frightful.,"As a Christian theologian, I am obliged to comment on books that can easily lead others astray (like a wolf in sheep's clothing). In short, Pearl presents such a misguided view of women's roles that the few-and-far-between nuggets within are not worth searching for amidst the theological muck and spiritual mire. Do NOT buy this book."
64875,1,Poor example of a wireless controller,"Recently I have purchased 3 different wireless controllers. DO NOT BUY THIS ONE!!! The main problem with this controller is that the left analog stick is rendered utterly useless. Without it being precise it makes gaming more difficult. Also, its desine is quite chinsy. BUY THE ONE SOLD BY BETSKU. It is blue and says Sega on it. Works excellent!"
64929,1,a time for sleeping,"Dr. Randall is no doubt very bright and knowledgeable, but needs an editor. This book was so long and explained things so many times that it ended up being confusing.I have studied theoretical physics for years and have a large library of qualitative and quantitative books on physics and mathematics and I know that this book will not be part of my collection. Wonderful ideas, but stated in an amateurish, repetitive manner. Have you attended or sat through one of her classes at Harvard? If so, you know that there are other ways to be put to sleep other than medication. Anyways, check it out."
64934,1,Did not work for me,I received the band last week and it really did not help but made my pelvic pain worse. I ordered another one with more back support to see if that helps better. I bought a band that was a litlle bigger so I asjust it to 3 levels of tighness and none of those work for me.
64996,1,A BIOGRAPHY OF A HIPSTER NOBODY KNOWS ?,"Why bother with a bio of hipster Terry Southern?Author tries a tongue in cheek run, but that does not work . Southern, by this account , was an alcoholic who made his living scribbling lines for B movies. Check that the author is a Canadian who does not have the slightest idea of what life was like in Terry Southern's haunts.Read this only if you wish to see what low grade stuff publishers are shoeveling onto the market these days ."
65045,1,A larger problem.,"It's not liberals who are screwing up Christmas, it's not conservatives, it the idiots who have to politicize (and thus, make even worse) what was a horrible ""holiday"" to begin with. I haven't read this book, and neither should you. Christmas should be beyond politics - left or right, just buy CD's for gifts and move on with your life."
65227,1,the perfect paws,I LOVED IT IS THE BEST POSSIBLE BOOK OLD? MAYBE BUT THE BEST POSSIBLE BOOKS THAT I EVER HAVE READ!!!!!!!!!!
65230,1,Artifact archive only,"This book is strictly an archive of artifacts left by the Imperial family. No text to speak of. Beautifully printed, but pass if you're looking for The Story."
65277,1,dont buy,"I usually like products from these guys but this knife sharpener did nothing for any knife that I used it on. After sitting there and going over and over with the action to sharpen the knives, nothing was coming to fruition. Now, perhaps under a microscope I could have seen improvement in the blade but not with my naked eyes or in using it."
65287,1,The first novel by the man who would become Cordwainer Smith,"Ria, by Felix C. Forrest,was first published in 1947 and reprinted in 1987. He is not yet Cordwainer Smith, whose first science fiction story was published a few years later -- though the themes of cats, suffering, cruelty, and male-female relationships are already present. At times he pontificates at length, and some of the writing (and the ideas) are very dated. I re-read it recently and didn't enjoy this as much as I enjoy most CS. But then I'm hardly objective, as I'm one of his daughters.Ria herself came alive for me (though most of the other characters didn't much), and one of the most interesting things about the book for me was how my father wrote mostly from the female point of view, through the eyes of Ria herself.Anyone who is utterly fascinated with Cordwainer Smith might be interested in this, but otherwise, it's pretty much history."
65303,1,Miss-fire,I had to send the first one back as it did not work at all out of the box. I called the company and they were slow on the response or with providing a RMA. I returned it through Amazon and they did a great job of getting me a replacement and returning the defective one.
65374,1,wrong size,I ordered these gloves and was never asked a size. I didn't realize they would sell only mediums. I e-mailed ace immediatly right after the order using the email on amazons web page. They didn't return it. I emailed them again the next day and got nothing after that I got an email confirmation that they shipped me medium gloves and a phone number. I talked to someone who just wanted to blame me. He said I never sent any emails and said its my fault for not being able to read model numbers. I wounldn't order from them again. There are to many other options.
65406,1,never got item,I ordered this and got safety pins instead. They gladly refunded my money but I would like to have to product I ordered.
65454,1,So many errors!,"Others have noted some of the factual errors in this ridiculous book. I will add that it is highly unlikely that a boy raised in Argentina who never went to high school would be admitted to the US Naval Academy and go on to work on nuclear submarines and in military intelligence.Ms Adler also doesn't understand how family relationships work. The daughter of your father's brother is your cousin, not your niece. A child with one Chinese parent and one Caucasian parent cannot possibly have blue eyes. The thing you taste wine with is your ""palate"", not your ""palette"".I was hoping for some dreamy Provencal atmosphere, but this book is a joke. Fortunately, I bought it at a charity thrift store for $1 and will give it back to them."
65488,1,Tight plot - but I was disappointed by characters,"I was disappointed by this book despite the very positive reviews on this page. The plot was entertaining and tightly constructed, but the characters didn't match up: I felt I'd read about them all (or rather seen them on '70s detective TV shows) too many times before."
65496,1,Very Disappointing,"This book was highly recommended to me but I was forced to dissent from popular opinion.While this book was factually interesting, it was also a very glossed-over look at a president who was successful enough that no glossing-over is necessary. Mr. D'Souza needs to learn that it is okay to admit that Reagan was a flesh-and-blood human being like the rest of us and that his accomplishments stand on their own merit.A good story, but not very well written."
65527,1,Old Version,This book is not the newest version available. It would have been nice to get a notice as to the availability of newer versions of this book. The book itself is in good condition but the information within is outdated
65594,1,This book is tedious!,I read this book in a couple of sittings only because half of the book tediously explained the first day! I wanted to get to the substance of the book & it never came. I agree with the critics - it was flat.
65597,1,Barely worth the effort,"Although I was interested enough to finish the story, I felt it had been a waste of time when it was over. Everything happened so conveniently. It was highly predictable and a little too neatly concluded. Really not worth the effort."
65605,1,Thud! A big fat bore,"Okay, so there's sensationalism in airline disasters. That's probably the biggest reason I stuck with this slow and useless novel. The plot and resolution weren't even mildly believable.How Oprah could pick this is beyond me . . . while I don't always like her selections, at least they're (usually) literary and thought provoking."
65615,1,Quite Unbelievable,"Although this book was a page turner it is an unrealistic and at times boring book. Some of the descriptions of clothing, living quarters, etc. was tedious. And the plot? Forget it...it is like a bad made for tv movie. I would have given it only one star but the extra star is for the author wisely not including any descriptive sex scenes. That truly would have made this book worth trashing."
65655,1,"great movie, quality of recording poor","The movie is great, truly a cult classic. This version however, seems to be a low quality, region-free Chinese bootleg version."
65672,1,This book is NOT McClellen's translation,"The description and reviews are misleading in calling this the translation of David McClellan. The book I got is NOT by McClellan, is full of typographical problems, and does not have the same selection of readings as McClellan's book. Bait and switch."
65746,1,"A Little Background Music, Please","The goal of this cassette is to assist pregnancy and childbirth with relaxation techniques and guided mental imagery.Relaxing it is not. The sound quality is poor, doing nothing to diminish the pops, hisses, and breathing inherent in recording the human voice. There is no background music to help with this either. I found both the pitch and inflection of the speaker's voice to be extremely unnerving and annoying. Several times, the speaker becomes VERY loud and screechy, ruining any hope of relaxation and jolting the listener into a heightened state of tension. This is not the recommended way to end a self-hypnotic state.With a professional speaker, a good sound mixer, and a little music, I think the guided imagery would be very helpful and I intend to use it in conjunction with other tapes I will be listening to. However, I can't see myself packing this particular cassette off to labor and delivery."
65773,1,Anti-Flag is a mockery of Punk music.,Read this then run. This band sucks. Avoid at all costs.They have phony British accents and they're from Pittsburgh. What?
65785,1,Very boring with no point!,About a guy and his sister and her son and their mother!!!! It just doesn't stop!
65833,1,Rust and mold developes inside this SentrySafe,"Substantial amounts of rust starts to develope within short order along with apparent mold and odors.Even desiccant fails to bring the humidity level inside this safe down to acceptable levels and the high level of humidty inside of this safe not only rusts out the inside of the safe, it also damages most everything metal that you might want to protect inside the safe.Even where the outside humidity is only 8%. the inside of this safe ranges above 80%.Apparenly the high humidity is caused by the clay material Sentry uses to make the safe fire resistant."
65995,1,Cold war propaganda,Angelina Jolie plays a too-cool-for-the-room superspy. Great for people who haven't figured out the cold war is over. The movie is a strung together series of stereotypes and cliches and the acting is over-the-top stupid-serious.
65996,1,don't bother,"I thought it was the movie - just a trailer. Don't waste your time, it's just a come on to buy the movie."
66107,1,"Hard to set up, works intermitantly Don't waste your money","I bought this product, thought it would work, it started to drop the wireless signal working for only 10 minutes at a time. It is hard to set up, the cd is useless, and the web interface is just as difficult. It has to reboot after each change to the settings, takes 30 minutes to enter what should take 10! Don't spend your money on this, buy a puppy, easier to take care of.Nick"
66148,1,I Missed It,"Perhaps it was over my head, I don't know. All I can say is I had a awfully hard time finishing this, which doesn't happen to me very often. I had looked at the book a few times, but it wasn't until it won the Pulitzer that I thought of reading it. Yes, there is plenty of beautiful simple writing,however, the plot seemed to languish between passages of keen observation on faith and life, and love, and death. It just didn't hold my interest. I'd give it the benefit of the doubt and say it could be I was expecting something very different, and just wasn't prepared for the pace and tone of the book."
66153,1,"Very lonely, slow, like watching paint dry...well written .... BUT...","Many 5 star reviews actually hit it right on the head: well written, slow moving, needs to be appreciated, not for everyone, give it a chance. Give it a chance???? I spent $15 on the paperback at Borders and what a waste. The damn thing won a Pulitzer so I thought I couldn't go wrong but it's exactly what the five star people said it was EXCEPT for one thing.... The reader needs to be in the mood to read a novel that is like watching paint dry... over a period of three weeks! Real wet paint, in the highest of humidity!!!"
66182,1,Watch the Packaging - 4 to an envelope,"What I was expecting were individually wrapped tea bags. They come 4 to an envelope, so once you open it the others are exposed to the air. They definitely can not be used in a public setting where no one knows who originally opened it or how long it has been open. I suppose they would be good for batch brewing at home."
66264,1,Broken in less than 2 months,We purchased this coffeemaker in February and April 1 it broke. I have written Mr. Coffee to find out how to get a replacement part. It's a small but essential component that shuts off the flow of water when the carafe is moved from the warming plate and reopens the flow when it is replaced. In addition the warmer stays on for a mere 60 minutes with no adjustment as to how long it should stay on. I suggest you avoid this product.
66282,1,Melted in dryer,"I ordered this pad to use on the Chicco play yard. It fit pretty well. However, I washed and dried the pad (gentle cycle, low heat) before the first use and when I pulled it out of the dryer, the waterproof vinyl was melted and there were big holes in the vinyl, making it useless as a waterproof pad. I received a free replacement and it only melted a little bit the first time, so I kept it. The second time I washed/dried it however, it melted the same way."
66290,1,An exhausting exercise in perplexity.,"Oprah, dear one, WHY? Give me Chekhov, Wharton, Plath, Dickens, Poe, but Faulkner? I appreciate the online assistance at Oprah.com and the Monday night lecture series to aid in understanding the atrocious grammer and quasi-English, but...the revelations to which it all leads isn't worth the pain and suffering of reading Faulkner.Did this author have an LSD addicition, because let's face it...he ""ain't right!"""
66291,1,Boring,"I thought it was boring and even though I am an avid reader, I didn't get far at all in any of the books. My tastes are just different."
66308,1,No Longer Works!!,"This player worked great when I first got it, however, the latest blu-ray dvd's will not play! Pirates of the Caribean, 3:10 to Yuma, and any other new disk. The new firmware upgrade didn't help at all. I suggest buying a PS3. Stay away from this player!"
66337,1,Is it over yet?,A few disturbing scenes with a wanna be Andrea Yates and jump out heart attack spots didn't cut it. My wife and I fell asleep half way through it.
66511,1,Wish I could select negative 10 stars,"This book, which thankfully I borrowed, could be used by authors worldwide as a shining example of poor research skills, deplorable use of language, and excellent yellow journalism. As an example, the setting of the crime takes place in New Berlin, NY. The river flowing through that small town is the Unadilla, not the Chenango, as reported in this book. Similar errors abound. That aside, the errors in spelling, grammar, and syntax make this a difficult book to read. Additionally, I found this ""objective"" account to be incredibly biased. Mr. Warren, a basic writing course would be my suggestion, and please make up your mind whether you would like to write an account from one perspective or if you would like to be an objective journalist."
66550,1,CANNOT BELIEVE THIS WAS PUBLISHED,"This has to be the most narcissistic book I have ever read. Another reviewer described it as self-indulgent, and I agree. I started reading this with the best of intentions, but then found myself skipping parts in the hope I would find something relevant and/or meaningful. I found this book to be nothing but private musings and opinions about the most trivial and mundane things, and I could not helping thinking ""who cares?"". At the risk of offending those who liked or even loved it, this was nothing but nonsense and a waste of time."
66575,1,comic book to movie screen movies stink,"My problem with the movie is she is made to be a hero and a woman with a guilty conscience. Catwoman is a VILLIAN (hello!) she would not write letters of apology or save another persons life. The irony of this movie was sharron stone played more of the roll of the real cat woman then Halle did. This is the dumbest conversion of comic to movie I've ever seen. Cat woman is evil you dorks!How to make this movie a success?Give it the R rating. Make her brutally rip people apart. Make her reign the city as the major leading for, then end the movie with batman ending her reign (not that I'm a batman fan)Oh and I gave it 2 stars instead of one because of the gothic aspects of it"
66582,1,the most frustrating phone I have ever owned,"I really dislike this phone. When I read other reviews saying it was hard to open (broken nails, boo hoo) I thought that was sour grapes. But it took a combination of my husband and I 25 minutes to open the phone, which we ended up doing with a key and scratching the hell out of it. So fine, I got it all set up. But it would not transer the info on my sim card, so I had to rekeyboard my address book. Then, after a few days use, the sim card got dislodged and I had to go through opening the phone yet again! The navagation is also tricky. I have very small hands and still find the buttons too close together. If you don't lock your phone or keep it in a special case the camera comes on all the time. I have spent so much time adjusting the settings so it is effecient. I have no idea what they were thinking, but next time I am going back to Nokia."
66633,1,Disappointing sound makes unit unuseable ...,I would agree that this is by far the best unit on the market. Superior picture quality is important and not even the newest Samsung unit beats the Toshiba. But sound quality is also important to a movie and Toshiba fails miserably here. Low volume at the highest setting makes the unit unuseable on aircraft or in other noisy enviornments. It is going back.
66652,1,sounds like a good book,"this sounded like a good story but when the price of the hard back is only $0.20 and the kindle version is at $7.99 there is a problem, i object to paying extra for the electronic version than the printed version when the electronic version costs so much less to produce and handle which is a pity as i think i would have liked it.it is time amazon got their act together and realised they are loosing lots of sales due to this problem."
66660,1,Expect typos.,"I feel that there are a lot of prodcuts out there that are both beneficial than this book. It is good for early morning practice to stimulate your brain, but I would not use it as a primary means of studying.First of all, the book is full of typos. For some, this might not be a problem, but I found it highly distracting.Secondly, the explanations for correct answers was poor. I found myself referring back to other books to figure out the answers.Third, these are only one hour mini-tests, so that introduces two new issues. You cannot really use these tests as an assessment, because they are so short. On the same day, I could score 6/16 on the biology section. Later, the same day, I could score 14/16. Also, being short, they do not help with preparing endurance for the actual exam.While I did not find this book very helpful, I would recommend the 1001 question series. I used the o-chem and physics books, and found those questions much engaging."
66831,1,"Non standard recording, & can't be played on your computer","While I love Don McLean, it is unfortunate that this recording was done by BGO Records. They are trying to stop you from making/distributing MP3 files of their music by recording it in a non-standard format. You're not getting redbook audio on this CD. You can't play this CD on your computer. Further, they don't tell you this anywhere in the packaging. I have returned this CD and will not buy ANY music produced by BGO until such time as they get their act together, and give me what I'm paying for."
66851,1,Overrated in every way = Disappointed,"Quentin Tarantino has an issue with self-indulgence this time around. There are a few scenes that seem like they could've been cut out in the editing room without a problem, or at least shortened. Nothing of any real significance appears to be going on, and whether or not these moments get better in any repeat viewing, they can come off as extremely pointless. The only thing exciting about this movie is when the woman pulled the other woman's eye out."
66889,1,Not my cup of tea.,FLat Crazy didn't strike me as either funny or with an interesting plot.I expect a good novel to get my attention at least by the end of the first chapter. Flat Crazy failed to do just that.
66893,1,Scottish Pub Band Poor CD,"Clouds were a Scottish Pub band that came down to London around1966 in search of a recording deal. They were decent musicianslive, but poor song writers. This CD is their first and lastalbums packaged together. Both of these albums are pretty shaky.I would NOT recommend them. Some of the reviews offered here arecompletely laughable. Trying to make Clouds out to be some sortof great band. They are obviously submitted by relatives andformer employees. Hey I saw Clouds three times and they were justan enjoyable Scottish Pub band PERIOD!"
66922,1,Toby Keith is an A$$,"The last time Toby Keith played in my hometown, he acted like such a smug, thankless jerk that I don't care if I ever see him LIVE (in concert) again. And this lame CD further proves my point: It's a last-minute attempt to ca$h-in and TK's complete disregard for his fans is painfully evident with the half-hearted release of this garbage. Either way, I give the guy another year or two in the spotlight and then he'll be doing the state fair and rodeo circuit. Maybe he won't be such a big shot when he's playing in front of 150 people."
67038,1,poorly written,I bought the book to prep for the written portion of GRE. I think I got 4.5 out of the written portion but not because of the help of the book.I think it is horribly written. I wish I had not wasted the money on it
67046,1,psyco-cybernetics,not nearly as in depth as the book. much preferred the book. wouldn't recommend it to someone just being introduced to the concept.
67051,1,Magnavox Lemon,"I too had problems with this TV. It would never play any of my DVD's even new ones. After about 3 months, the picture just suddenly died. I can still get sound but no picture. I would never buy another Magnavox."
67059,1,Misfit,This system does not work well for DVD Collection boxes. I found that many of my dvds did not fit into the allocated spaces.
67116,1,Blah...So What??,"This collection of short stories is mildly interesting and compelling at parts, but as a whole it merely provides a bland and unsurprising read. There`s really nothing special or remarkable here, since Carver presents slices of life about lonely, depressed and lost american souls who haven`t much of a life. Some moments are intriguing (the short story ""Cathedral"", for instance, about a couple and a blind man), yet the overall result fails to rise above average, dull and bleak material. Certainly overrated, this book recieved more praise than it truly deserves.A letdown."
67132,1,Suspicious these aren't real,"I've owned at least half a dozen pairs of these sandals over the years. Typically they are excellent. These, however, were much more flimsy and cheaper than my older pairs, and the bottom tread looks completely different compared to my others. They are also too small, even though I've always worn the size I ordered. Either Reef has gone incredibly down hill, or these are fake shoes."
67158,1,Awful,"It must be me, I like technothrillers which are technically accurate. The story is really hard to believe and it is hard to imagine that everything from a nuclear torpedo to a kamikaze vs. a cruise missile would really happenPerhaps the worst part though for someone who likes their technothrillers accurate are all the misstatements. It says there's a Mark 49 and Mark 50 heavyweight torpedo. Mark 50 is already the name of a lightweight one.then, there is this piranha class submarine. Why say this as though it were really a class of US submarine? Also, the note that US submarines don't use anechoic tiles. How could this be. Read jane's. The list goes on. From plot to accuracy, it's awfu"
67168,1,Common Sense Book,I have read about half of the book and i dont even want to read the other half its just not interesting at all. The writer talks about basic information nothing special.
67171,1,A real disappointment,"I had to struggle to keep my interest in this book until the end. But I finished it, with the hope that there would HAVE to be some amazing payoff in the end. I love Karin Slaughter, but I have to say, she really dropped the ball on this one. I was actually 87% of the way through the book (according to my Kindle) before it even got interesting. In the end, I was wrong. There was no real payoff."
67175,1,Not so good,"I agree with the other reviewer. A lot of nothing and a poor ending. Usually I love your books Ms Slaughter, but with the amount of vulgarity, it just made your work trashy. You have a real talent for writing, as good as James Patterson. I've read your newer books and they weren't as vulgar although you seem to think that the ""f"" word is the only word in the dictionary. You could reach a whole world of new readers if you would just clean up the language."
67178,1,Not worth it,"Save your money. I have never played a tenchu game in which I needed a manual. If the point is to sneak around and kill people, you don't need a guide. Here is a hint: Throw caltrops on the ground and wait for the bosses to step on them. when they jump on one foot, slice them up...repeat. It's probably not in the guide and that is all you need for every tenchu game."
67205,1,Reader reviews -- many from one (unidentified) reader?,"As a reader who scrutinizes the reader reviews for books, just wanted to caution others to look at the source on many of the reviews for this book. While clearly not all the reviews seem disingenous, many have similar dates of postings, are very anonymous and haven't reviewed any other books, or recommend this book in all of their other reviews in the same way. Could be just coincidence, but might be an attempt to sell books, too. I take the trouble to point this out because one of the best things about Amazon is the veracity offered through their ""reader review"" section, and I hate to think that it may be being manipulated."
67218,1,Everything but Flamenco!,If you are looking for flamenco... hop on!Flamenco is from the heart. Alabina is made to sell. It does include a lot exotic influences and sounds rather nice.
67219,1,Not for starters,"This review is intended for college students taking their first courses in communications , and to departments of electrical engineering who choose this book as a reference for their courses. Ok, this book was the reference suggested for my first courses in analog and digital communications. In the first course (analog communications) the book was not helpful at all, and i think this is the fault of the university, since the book does not stress analog communications. However, in the second course(digital), the teacher's notes were so much easier to grasp than Proakis' text, because for a first course in digital communications, the student is not expected to have a background, and the text assumes that you have a background in digital communications. I also think that the examples were quite poor and lack application perspective. (by the way i got an A on both courses) Therefore this is a book that would be a reference for researchers and teachers better than for students."
67246,1,"Not the usual Robert Downey, Jr.","I'm a huge Robert Downey, Jr. fan, but this movie did not live up to my expectations. I found it tedious and boring for the most part. I guess every great actor has an occasional bad movie."
67286,1,Don't buy this,"I have Windows XP and the driver that comes with the product (on CD) as well as the one on the manufacturer website do not work. I have spent far too much time trying to get this thang to work and it isn't happening. Get another product that's easier to work with and actually is compatible with XP, if that's your operating system."
67408,1,Marketing success story,"There are so many better workouts than this low-budget production. Doing the same workout routine for 90 days is completely inefficient, not to mention that Horton is arrogant and annoying the first time you do the workout. By the end of the first week, you just want to smack him and his big ""MAH-suhls"" every time he talks like Arnold.The timing is off (again...a low-budget, one-take workout) and the stretching is pathetic. Plus, there are wrist curl exercises...give me a break! ""Huh, huh, huh...specificity, my friend!"" says Mr. High-and-Mighty. How about some variety, Tony?Don't waste your money...or your time."
67441,1,DO NOT buy THIS edition!!!,"DO NOT, repeat DO NOT buy THIS edition. Incredibly, it does not include the ""Bad Faith"" chapter, the MOST FAMOUS chapter in the whole book. What were the publishers thinking? Look for the Washington Square paperback with the white cover or a hardcover copy."
67520,1,a disappointment,"It has all the elements of a good romance mystery...but they are never developed. I think she did a poor job of giving the characters depth. The story line is just too unbelievable. Lots of disappointments in this book, I would recommend you borrow it from a friend it you have to read it. Don't waste your money."
67631,1,Too basic,"My impression was that this tape contained the most basic ideas that author's in this subject matter have ever presented. For eg., ""People crossing hands in front of their chest means that they aren't accepting what you are telling them."" That is the most typical statement I have ever heard, and this tape is full of them. There is nothing enlightening, nothing that makes you glad that you bought and listened to the tape. I felt it was not good use of time or money. For"
67652,1,I've read them all -- though I should've skipped this one,"I have savoured every ""Prey"" book and look forward with great anticipation whenever a new one is released. However, I was disappointed with ""Easy Prey"" and felt that Mr. Sanford took the easy way out. It seems that at some point he must have realized that the story was coming to an end and that he had no good suspect, so he had better make one materialize. I am glad to say that this is the only ""Prey"" book that I would give 2 stars, just about all the others warrant 5 stars. I suggest you skip right to ""Chosen Prey"", it continues where ""Certain Prey"" left off."
67656,1,Steady Decline,"I am--or should I say was--another major, long time fan of John Sandford and Lucas Davenport but this latest book-one with the greatest of all PREY title--has cured me of that. The plot of the book just does not make sense and characters wander in and out of it with senseless abandon. It appears to have been created by requesting his word processor to put together a plot and descriptions of characters--in one place Weather is described almost identically in paragraphs only half a page apart--continuity issues abound. Very disappointed--wish I had borrowed this one from the library so I could have returned it."
67837,1,Don't Buy,"Well after buying these O2 sensors I thought I got a great price compared to local stores! Well if they worked that would of saved me a lot. BUT, they are defective and of course its too late to return. Had to bring the car to a shop to figure it out. So I want to warn anyone who wants to use these Bosch Oxygen Sensors for their Chrysler Don't!! And according to a local Chrysler dealer Bosch O2s don't work in their cars. To late for me so heed my warning."
67924,1,Hit and MISS comedy,"This film has sooo much potential and could have been much more funnier and it just annoys me that the Wayans bros did an utter and complete s**t job at this. It was stupid..painfully cliche,jokes are TASTELESS and just...crap.I think that if this film was placed under different cast/director, it woulda been much better. The Wayans brothers aint as funny as they used to be and I think they know it too..hence 'White Chicks'.I'd say the only part to just about smirk to, is the part when they start having a mother dissing match and the 'white' chicks are like 'oooh u wanna talk about moth-errrzz!!..', yeah that deserves a snort or 2..everything else in this film is just a waste of budget money."
67972,1,What a waste!,The authors were very wise to retain their anonymity. This at least leaves some room for speculation about the specific parentage of the worst stories - in a body of work that was bad to mediocre at best. The concept may have sounded great - but the end result was a total disappointment at every level.
68047,1,disappointing,"I've heard Berlitz is widely recognized for language education.The exercises in this workbook are good challenges forpractising French. However I am disappointed to see theanswer key has several incorrect words, spellings and usage.Why provide answers if they're wrong?"
68092,1,I threw mine 18 metres with wind assistance,"I heartily agree with the reviewers who find this book, too long, too dull and too boring. Luckily the bookshops on Khao San Road do trade-ins. Am I the only person in the world to think that Randall Flagg is the most tiresome bad guy ever to appear in print. What is King's obsession with this guy ? Let's have more psycho nurses with blow-torches Mr King and less adding another 500 pages of drivel to an already drivel filled book. Riveting, is something I'd rather do than read this again."
68112,1,disspoint,"This item was not good the directions were confusing I read it five times and use it as it was written and it just didn't slice potatoes for french fries right, I ended give this item to a thirt store it wasn't worth the money I hope someone else get good use out of it."
68118,1,Do Not Purchase,"I purchased 4 of these one broke almost immediately, the others will only crack large nuts. Do not buy you will be disappointed."
68163,1,uch - no good,"i have a pretty good understanding of elec. music. i've been listening to the genre for nearly a decade... to say this is short of brilliant and a hopscotch away from tourettes would be an understatement. eight frozen tries to carry the chaotic rhythms of milanese with the saavy of skream, emphasis on tries... the only track worth listening to in this entire album would have to be 'the drills for devil dub'. simply because after you get done with the overindulgent beats 40 secs into the song he actually starts to use some of his technical skills to good use, it does carry some sort of direction. mind you he still finds the way to insert a couple unnecessary drills but what would an experimental song be without 'crazy'. you may think i'm over exaggerating, even cruel perhaps in my review but so was he in having me think this was music. i say save your time and money and look for something else..."
68165,1,Irritates skin,"Had high hopes, based on the reviews, but I guess it's ""each to his own"". Irritating to my skin, from the very first use and increasingly so over the course of two weeks. No longer use it."
68184,1,I should have read the reviews,"This book is full errors. Examples: Don't use aspirin and warfarin together, all copies of the DEA222 are sent to the DEA after being filed out by a pharmacist. I stopped taking the practice tests after 90 questions because I am afraid this may actually worsen my score due to all the wrong information. I don't think this book was written by a pharmacist."
68247,1,Pointless gadget,"Though Maxim is a fine company, this particular gadget is completely pointless. It is far easier to make crepes in a traditional, low-edged, non-stick crepe griddle. This gadget does nothing except complicate the process."
68312,1,Think twice,After some research I purchased this model several months ago. Though quite content with it initially it ultimately disappointed me. The heating element/hot plate became horribly corroded. And the small black tab that secured the top on the grinder receptacle snapped off. It's not a bad price... but I'd suggest you keep your receipt!
68388,1,it burn my grass,I followed instructions and did a test patch. My entire test area is yellow. My backyard looks odd with a section of bright yellow and everything else green. i would do a small test patch before use!
68411,1,does not charge ipod touch.,The gadget works as a fm transmitter but not as a car charger for ipod touch. I returned the item due to that.
68472,1,boring w/a Capital B,"Tried to read this little ""ditty"" for a book club next month. Couldn't get past the first 10-20 pages. True to my beliefs: if a book doesn't suck me in in the first 10-20 pages I'm on to higher ground. Kathryn Stewart"
68485,1,Car Charger,"Quick delivery, but it worked only one time. Stopped after that. The cost of shipping was more than the charger, so I didn't send it back. I will buy the next one from a local store so I can bring it back without having to pay for it several times over."
68497,1,"0 Stars really , but they wouldn't let me. Save your money.","The Mediaeval Babes is the confection of some bright spark who thought that the girlie-group formula could be joined with the music of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries to... well, to make a lot of money. I suspect that they failed: they certainly deserved to.The Babes themselves are a washed-out bunch of hopeless wanabees. Some can sing a little, none does anything well. Their music is a crude blend, tasteless, talentless pastiches of mediaeval standards alternating with phoney pretend stuff.I can't go on - The Mediaeval Babes and their CDs are truly awful. At 33c it's a rip-off, and the quoted $33.99 is criminal. Go away and get the real thing - The Spice Girls or Hildegard of Bingen, not a cheap and risible imitation of both."
68518,1,Terrible,"Whiny and stupid hero, passive cardboard characters, and a dull world. What else can you wish for? A nice fire to burn the book. Do not believe the hype. There is no action, no character development, no conclusion."
68544,1,not as described,Description states clear plastic. It arrived and is blue plastic. I did not see any of the blue plastic items when I ordered it. Product completely defies the purpose because you have to lift the book out to read the last few sentences on every page.
68555,1,Are you kidding me?,I couldn't even finish this ridiculous book. I hope no one reads this and thinks it represents real life. I'm not sure if the author is a mother...guessing not...but she is obviously not a good writer.
68580,1,Never received,"I ordered this item on February 16th through Amazon which was sent to a place called graywhale_entertainment. I never received this item and there doesn't seem to be any way to inquire about this on the Amazon site. This is the first time this has happened to me, but has made me very wary of ordering through anyone other than Amazon for fulfilling my request."
68585,1,Defective Motherboard Issues?,"I agree as well; there is a problem with this computer screen. It does not appear on the start up screen but only on the active background. Lines at the top and trying to open and close Windows is extremely problematic. I have to close them at the bottom in the dialog box. This problem appeared almost immediately. This is definitely a problem with the motherboard. In addition the Vista/Toshiba combination is horribly slow. It takes forever for this computer to respond when using pictures and moving files. This is one of those computers that looks good on paper but in real life is a total dud. Consumer Reports had this as a ""Best Buy"" but I guess they just ran clock speed tests; anyone who actually uses this computer will be well aware of functionality issues. This may be restricted to the models displaying the Toshiba motherboard defect but my experience matches the others."
68598,1,doesnt work on newer brand tv's,"buyer beware, this product needs an update to work on newer brand tv's. just returned mine looking for additional items that have the same results."
68641,1,"Confusing, poorly written","Part ONE provides a good base for the material to be covered later and chapters 9 and 10 on bonds and bond portfolios are decent (although the explanation of duration and horizon analysis could use some work). The latter half of chapter 6 and all of chapter 7 are horribly written. My professor's lectures on this material weren't really driving the point home, so I decided to read chapters 6 and 7 hoping to gain some insight and clarification. I'm not having much luck. It's going to take a lot of re-reading and memorization of these concepts before they start to click."
68666,1,Terrifying,"We bought this for our daugher when she was 1 and put it on the proper setting. The first time the head popped up, she screamed in terror. I put in on the 4 month old setting and she played with it a little but overall is still terrified of it. Every once in a while we pull it out to see if she will play with it because I really think it is a neat toy and she just runs screaming from the room. I would give it away if I knew of anyone with a baby but I dont. It seems a shame to let it sit there collecting dust. We had it almost a year befor I even knew that the shapes came out."
68668,1,Hells Angels fight then ride then fight then ride..........,"First of all, this movie was worth 10 bucks. If for no other reason than to see young Jack Nicholson talking the talk and hitting the road with some real and genuine Hells Angels. Sonny Barger wrote that Jack fit right in with the boys and even had a perfect San Quentin shuffle. Roark's lead role, however, was a bad charicature of the 1960's slow talking ""Hey, man,"" motor scooter types. With nearly no script, and even less of a story line, it's all about these mean dudes banding together like a brotherhood should, rolling through towns and tangling with the local good old boys, or service men, partying with body paints and getting hassled by ""The Man."" The very serious ending actually made me laugh out loud! Dont expect art with this film. BUT, its quite entertaining to us Red Wing wearing motorcycle enthusiasts."
68762,1,WTF,"one time use I guess...1st time worked ok, 2nd time nothing. there is no off switch so my thinking is if there is no power going to the device it should not drain the batteries if i leave it plugged in.....WRONG...not portable but disposable. but it is my fault for getting something cheap...won't happen again! can't put new batteries everytime i go to use it and not pulling batteries out everytime either."
68767,1,bad sound,"Can't recommend this recording, the sound is just terrible. But Sutherland voice is spectacular here, of course."
68878,1,Bad Movie!,"This boring flick is a poor rip off of a way superior 1993 movie Lorenzo's Oil with Nick Nolte, Susan Sarandon and Peter Ustinov. If you want to see a riveting account of this true story of a man's relentless search for a cure for his sick son with a rare disease then see Lorenzo's Oil and don't waste your time with this turkey."
68916,1,Disappointing,"These may be the original artist, but these are not the original hits they played on the radio. These are new recordings of the hits. This should be stated in the Amazon ad."
68939,1,Nads is an Australian word for Painful,"Messy, extremely painful, and after all that screaming it left enough hair that I shaved my legs 2 days later (after the swelling went down) Those Aussie women must be from tough stock to use this junk on their armpits or bikini lines. Crikey!"
68948,1,Not very good,"I have to agree with the ""dud"" comment, because I got a copy of this and thought the stories were either dull or of amateur quality. This can't really be what women are thinking, at least not the women I know who are vibrant and wildly sexy."
68956,1,We Need to Value Ourselves More Than This Woman Values Herself,"I heard Jane Juska speak at an Author's Luncheon. She was fresh, funny and had great comedic timing. She was the hit of the event. So I bought her book with anticipation of more of the same. What a surprise! Yes, the comedic talent was still there but in small doses. What predominated was the portrait of a woman of little self-esteem, often of self-loathing, whose graphic descriptions of sex had little in the way of sex appeal. My mother who is 89 wants to read the book but I will warn her that, in the end, it is not an illuminating experience. And all of the men Jane has sex with are also having or recently have had sex with other women. What about the possiblity of STD's? No mention is made of taking precautions or of ""safe sex."" I hope all of us can move into our late-life years enjoying rewarding sexual relationships. But not at the risk of disease or damage to our self-worth or a suspension of our hard won values."
68958,1,The tale of a woman who still needs to find herself,"The hype released for this book was not honest. The writer who suffered much abuse and trauma does not become the free, sexual competent woman of the ads. She still lets herself be used by the jerks she choses to hop into bed with and from all the evidence in the book, is not really enjoying herself.She had made gains in losing weight and improving her self image, but she is by no means a model of a self assured, in control woman.Unfortunately, she has many sisters in this world."
68962,1,Ehhh,"Out of the 25 protective cases.4 were ripped off meaning the side were ripped off.Very disappointing. Normally i buy protective cases from the store, I tried amazon because they were cheaper.This is what i get for cheap stuff like this!"
68976,1,a travesty,"When you deviate significantly from a pretty good cold war novel with a good serial character in a good series and then miscast the hero this badly, nothing can make up for it. Segal is not credible except in his usual fluffy comedy roles; e.g, ""Who is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe"" which I highly recommend, especially if you like to cook, but he's not a cold warrior. Here's a Segal quote from that Chefs movie: ""I can't even boil a pizza."""
68980,1,Very Disappointed,"Do.Not.Purchase. The plush cat bus that they send you looks nothing like the picture. It was terrible to think that they were charging about 20-something dollars for such a piece of trash.All the legs were simply a single piece of fabric with cotton shoved in at random intervals- making sudo legs that were fused together.The sewing was absolutely terrible- you can see places where the machine/person missed with cotton poking out of the plushThe dimensions were very misleading- while the description claims it is 7 inches long- it doesn't mention that it is about 3 inches tall.I have ordered both the catbus and gray totoro from this company- completely ripped off both times. If you want a good quality plush, shop from a Japanese website instead."
68984,1,Didn't Speak to Me,"Most of the folks in this book are people you've already heard of; in addition, most are men. I was looking for a book on lesser-known individuals who had peaked later in life - this is NOT that book!"
68986,1,Wild Hype,"This ABC produced mess was hype without substance. It passes for edgy intelligent techno whatever because it was aimed at the great middle brow. It is Oliver Stone trading on his name and rapidly falling clout. This thing was produced in the shadow of JFK and the afterglow of Natural Born Killers, or back when people still thought Oliver Stone had something to say. After U Turn, Any Given Sunday and Alexander, most of us know better. Oliver Stone is a Tony Scott level director with sophmoric political insights. Finding anything deep in this made for TV event is like championing 12 Monkeys over the films of Chris Marker"
68990,1,Sucks,I thought both ledges came in a package. It's not as wide as I thought it would be. I just think I should have built one myself rather than spend the money to buy this. Way overpriced.
69004,1,Uncomfortable,"I bought two of those for travel to Europe. Both of them broke (had holes in the seam area) after coule of uses.Besides, in my opinion extra cushions on the sides are unnecessary. I had a pillow before with a simple design and was happy with it, and my next pillow will be without any extra cushions and buttons."
69059,1,Conflict of interests,"I have to agree with the reviewer equityanalyst, this book is garbage. Of course I am not surprised that the book continues to be a good seller since the average investor thinks that he is above average, and with a little guidance will beat the market. Guess what you won't. Technical analysis presupposes momentum in the market, which there isn't. Anybody that still believes technical analysis will make them rich, also believes in the January Effect, Hemline Effect and can even possibly predict bull and bear markets by studying weather patterns. Do yourself a favour don't waste your time or money looking for the investment ""holy grail"", educate yourself on efficient markets and investor psychology, and stop pouring money into this author's undeserving pocket, his interest is merely revenue maximisation, not your wealth creation."
69062,1,very poor---Do not recommend,I get back spasms sometimes in my upper back and good support will most timeshelp them to get better. This product was not easy to get on and it has much too muchflexibility to provide much of any support to the back area. It is like wrapping an acebandage around you! You are better off to buy a good posture bra that hooks in the frontif you are a woman!
69097,1,Returned it,"I think this would be perfect if you are looking for a small/portable cribbage board. Say you were going camping and wanted to take the game along this would probably be just what you were looking for.I was looking for a nice board for my parents, and this just seemed cheap and small. I returned it."
69129,1,Give me a break!,"Ok. There's a very simple reason why the first two singles off this CD had guest appearences by other artist: She can't hold a song on her own without needing someone to back her up. That's also the reason why her video's have so much ""schmaltz"" in them, her scantily clad, writhing body with that hair that seems to go on forever. Backround dancers in a similar state. That's what we call substance at this point.Regarding her voice, my dad put it perfectly. She sounds like she has all the training of a teenage girl singing in front of her mirror. Still at least she tries, which is more than I can say for Ashanti who hides the inadaquecies in her voice with layers of backround vocals (Sorry, I wanted to get two reviews in at once.)All in all I am not impressed by this or anything else she has EVER done! I don't wish to offend anyone I am just voicing an opinion."
69148,1,Worst movie EVER!,"This movie is a piece of junk. The Animation is poor (almost as bad as the animation from the originial Vampire Hunter D), the voice acting was horrible, and the plot... well, there was no plot. It was 80 min of pure [stuff]. I had to give this movie 1 star because there is no option for no stars. As a matter of fact, this movie owes me a star."
69245,1,Don't Waste Your Money,"I bought two of these for our deck. They worked for one day. Yes, the batteries are charged and properly installed. They are exposed to full sunlight most of the day. Night rolls around.....nothing. PURE JUNK!!! Don't bother with these. Unfortunately for me, after the first night of working operation, I tossed the boxes, trash pickup was the next morning. I'm stuck with them now, but you don't have to be. Save your money and pass these up."
69250,1,Disappointed,"I was very disappointed in this product. The signs were difficult to understand and the pictures were not great. Also, some of these were not the most common Mother Goose poems and there were only a few anyway."
69280,1,I gave the book away,"I did not finish the book, but gave it to my County Library. I could not wade through the large amounts of inappropriate language and activities. Definately an 'R' rated book and one I cannot recommend to my friends for this reason."
69305,1,Too Much Browbeating,"For a 900 page book, this book offers far too much repetition, megatons of male anger & self-flagellation and too little resoultion. (How many times does the reader have to be told that the main character hates his stepfather? I gave up counting at 30.) The author spends over 800 pages telling us over and over again about what a mess the various characters have made of their lives and then gives us a Cliffnotes ending where everyone finds resolution, love and redemption in the last 26 pages. This book was recommended to me by someone with whom I've exchanged dozens of books over the years and, until now, enjoyed each book she's sent my way. If this book had been 200 pages long, I wouldn't have bothered to write this review. But at a voluminous 900 pages, this book offers too little for such a large expenditure of time."
69320,1,DISMAL.,"Last fall I made the unfortunate mistake of purchasing this all-in-one unit. The software and hardware installation were not problematic, but the performance of the printer itself is absolutely abysmal. Over my network connection, it takes over five hours to transmit a simple 2-page Word document. I've triple-checked all network conditions, requirements and connectivity, with no change in performance.You'd think that connecting directly via the supplied ethernet cable would fix the problem. Alas, no. The direct cable connection yielded AN HOUR to print a two-page text-only Word document. Unbelievable.HP, this is the last product I buy from you, which is saying something given just how much equipment you produce. My 7-year-old Epson Stylus can take down your HP 2610 any day."
69480,1,Very Disappointing,"Last year I purchased a KitchenAid roaster that cracked, and it took 6 months to receive a replacement...then the replacement cracked as well. Recently, I decided to take a chance on CorningWare. I used this roaster twice in my convection oven, being sure to carefully follow the directions. After the second use, the Corning roaster cracked. I contacted the company, and they are sending me a replacement...but at this point in time, I do not have much faith in this type of product."
69563,1,"Hard, Small, Does Not Rock on Carpet","I purchased this rocker with the matchingCarolina Cottage Upholstered Jacquard Ottoman, Green. The chair is very easy to assemble. The chair back's fabric had a large discolored stripe on arrival. The manufacturer sent a new back within two weeks. Some stapling is visible on sides and bottom of chair.The chair does not rock on carpet. I called the manufacturer to make sure I had the runners positioned correctly, which they were. Also, the back is very short, coming just short of my shoulders. The seat and back are far too firm, even for someone who likes a firm chair. Overall, it is attractive, but uncomfortable."
69586,1,Strange fit,"I returned this. Even though I ordered the same size I ordinarily would for a sports bra, it was a very strange fit. The band was fine, but the cups were too big. I've had trouble with this brand before & will not bother trying any of their other styles."
69591,1,Stay away from this dog,I cannot warn you enough to NOT buy this system. It only includes one rear speaker although Amazon's description says it comes with two. It does not have any outputs to connect to your TV so you're only limited to having surround sound when watching DVDs (and when listening to the the built in radio tuner that didn't work for me at all).There weren't any reviews on this page when I just bought this a week ago and I wish I didn't break my own rule of always reading reviews on a product before buying it! Don't make the same mistake that I did - you can get a lot more bang for your buck with other systems (I ended up picking up a Yamaha YHT-160 and I love it!)
69594,1,Bad sound,"While the more recent R.E.M. comp, ""And I Feel Fine,"" suffers from booming, compressed, in-your-face sound, this relic from the early '90s is bad in a different way: the sound is trebly and bass-shy. Unfortunately, the best-sounding comp of IRS-era R.E.M. remains ""Eponymous."" I say unfortunately because it has only 12 songs and is missing a few tracks I love, most notably ""Pretty Persuasion."" Oh well."
69644,1,Full of Generalizations,"Though the book certainly had some pertinent points, such as fathers deserving equal consideration in child custody cases, it is full of facts which are not backed up by data. For example, Farrell states that 73% of male murderers come from single mother families. He, therefore, concludes that the mothers are responsible for their sons becoming murderers. He never states why the mothers are single parents, which is pertinent to the argument he tries to make. Are the mothers single because the fathers were abusive or criminal?? If so, it is pertinent information. The book is full of this type of generalization, and therefore must be read with an open mind to alternative explationations for the statistics quoted."
69790,1,"simplistic, redundant, and overstates the obvious","This could have been half a chapter in most decent books on management and money. Instead you get a ""book"" (and at this length I use that word loosely) that is a condescending fortune cookie mess. Let me sum it up for you: life is full of hardships and you need to deal with them and move on. There, I have saved you the cost of this book and didn't insult your intelligence while I was at it. Avoid this at all costs."
69813,1,Learn how to *make* cheese.,This is a book for the parasites of society who can't even conceive of the concept of *making* their own cheese.
69873,1,Certainly not the best introduction to Hemingway,"Perhaps I was distracted when I heard these short stories, but they seemed to lack substance. The characters seemed like passing shadows - I never knew them well enough to have any solid emotional attachment. The stories were all very short, and most felt incomplete. If you are just starting with Hemingway, try something else first. If you like his style, I'm sure you'll love this collection."
69909,1,"audioslave,audioslave,audioslave","avoid this dated,stale boring album from this has been defunct cheesy new wave dance band.any band featuring that geezer andy taylor has to be bad i assure you.minus 100 stars.get audioslave's debut cd instead to listen to some good rock music"
69914,1,too early to say?,"Not sure. Two stars=benefit of the doubt. Snake oil? Maybe. Ever notice how you never see competition/match grade rifles with this kind of crap on them?'Nuff said.I'll keep trying it on different rifles. When I see the manufacturers claims come through the clouds clear as day, I'll come back and praise Amazon for the Limbsaver brand. Until then, I think I'm done buying useless hunks of rubber to make myself think my gun is more accurate."
69983,1,BOOOOOOO!!!,"Please!! Don't buy this CD!!! I BOUGHT IT!! Actually, my Uncle got it for me. Please, don't get it. It's WORTH NOTHING AT ALL! She may be pretty, but she says swear words, and she doesn't write any of her songs. And she cand NEVER STAY ON JUST ONEEEE NOTE!!!..."
70010,1,I'm Hearing 'Blah Blah Blah',"All I hear coming out of Britney's mouth is blah blah blah and crap*y, meaningless music. Here's why:'...Baby One More Time'-her voice is annoying and computer generated, as usual'(You Drive Me) Crazy'-SHE drives me crazy (in a negative way)!'Sometimes'-1 of 3 good songs on hereSoda Pop'-keyword: pop'Born to Make You Happy'-if you want a good version of this song, listen to 'Tribute to Britney Spears'. Better voice singing HER song!'From the Bottom of My Broken Heart'-she sounds desperately sick'I Will Be There'-1 of 3 good songs on here'I Will Still Love You'-1 of 3 good songs on here'Thinkin' About You'-boring'E-Mail My Heart'-stupid'The Beat Goes On'-the way she sings it and the beat don't go togetherSo, as you can tell, this album [disappoints]! The only songs I recommend are 'Sometimes', 'I Will Be There', and 'I Will Still Love You'. The rest, SKIP!"
70114,1,ONE OF MY LEAST FAVORITES,"I really do like most of Lisa Kleypas' books, but this is one of my least favorites. The heroine is so depressing and self destructive. Don't bother with this one. It doesn't seem to have the charm and warmth that you get from other Kleypas books"
70181,1,Not a decent Family movie especially during Xmas,"A very mediocre movie, selected based on high customer review but was disappointed.Bad jokes and scenes when you are watching with family and kids, negativity amongst family, silly things.Pros: Family stands behind himWould certainly repeat watching movies I liked rather than watch this one.If you just want to kill time, maybe watch it. Nothing you are missing out on."
70211,1,"A hateful book, well worth avoiding","I am sure someone likes this book, but not I. I found the drawings uninspired-- not bad, but not great either. However it was the nearly utterly pointless and boring story that makes this a total drearfest. It's like a grey, damp chilly fall day-- it's just a big fat downer. I thought it would be cool, something my children would like, but they all hated it too. No story, lousy vocabular, unimaginitive-- and the production values of the book itself weren't that hot-- pale images, and coarse paper. Overall a really crummy book experience. I recomend not even bothering with this in the library, and certainly wouldn't suggest it for purchase consideration."
70246,1,OLD TEXT WITH MANY ERRORS,I used this text to teach a machine design class a community college. I has many errors in equations presented as well as in the answers presented in the back of the book. Problems are presented without any illustrations were needed.
70304,1,"Three words, Lil Kim Wannabe","I recently heard about Adassa through a friend, and I thought she was going be a good female MC, because I don't really like Reggaeton. The album is garbage let me tell you. If I could give it a negative 1 staw I would. She sings and raps about sex, biting off Lil Kim. Her image and style is very similiar to Lil Kim. All I have to say to Adassa is. You can't rap, and you should try to find another profession, because you're wack at hip hop. And stop trying to be like LiL Kim."
70342,1,there's a good half hour show here...,"...unfortunately it's been stretched out to an agonizingly slow two hour movie. Most of this movie is shots of people staring silently or empty rooms. This movie has an interesting premise and the book is probably a good read, but the movie turns out to be very boring. I like science fiction and I like the movies of Stanley Kubrick (whose style these people were apparently trying unsuccessfully to emulate) but Solaris nearly put me to sleep. Avoid this one."
70600,1,"ummm sorry girl, but your first album sucks :(","Sorry girl, i was hoping this would be alot better because your show rocks. but your first album kinda sucks. I think maybe after you get some more practice with your voice maybe your next release will be better. SORRY :(- Jessie"
70662,1,DVD locks up,This DVD set has a lot of problems. It won't work on one of my DVD players and works sparodically on the other. Constantly locks up and freezes and its unwatchable. Absolute garbage. I am goign to see about returning it.
70695,1,Happy ending for Animal Farm? Orwell would hate it,"TNT wasted the emormous talent of its team and guests to produce the happy ending that Orwell would both hate and understand. Combining this with the happy ending to th eproducers on broadway leads me to the next ""happy colorization"" of historically sginificant dark stories --------------- Life after death of a salesman (Arthur Miller) Willie Loman will buy, then short Amazon, and live happily ever after."
70703,1,"""I don't like pits in my juice""....and I don't like most the show either.","Thanks to the many reviewers who informed me how this show is butchered. I guess I will be saving my $$$. Miami Vice has all of the musics, so what is the problem here? I wished I could give this a negative star, as a result."
70760,1,don't buy!,"this charger will fry your battery and you'll end up spending way more money than you would if you just buy the actual charger from motorola. it looks nice, but beware!"
70762,1,Poor Quality Home Movie,"As a cruising family, we can relate to the events(positive) and as the techno side of sailing is scant (negative).The viewing offer should be at no charge and we would like a refund."
70887,1,The Watchmen,"This movie was a drag. It literally dragged on forever and ever with no real story line, no interesting characters either. I finally just quit watching it, it was so boring."
71032,1,I am a dissatisfied reviewer,This video lasted only 33 minutes and contained but one example. I expected much more for my money.
71090,1,Don't buy,This thing came broken and the company that sold it would not help me. They wanted me to return it and reorder it. I think they should have stepped up a little more.
71128,1,This trimmer is pretty good.,"This trimmer performs much like a gas powered trimmer--at the cost of one, too. It is pretty good--but pricey. Because is is so expensive, I cannot say it is a ""5 star"" value. It trims grass well."
71132,1,"Craig Cerise FV, CA","As with everyone else, got it and tested it. Unfortunately, much less impressed than most. Slaped it on my right angle square and got 90.8. I guess with in +/- 1 degree, but I expected better, especially right out of the box. They should make the tool tunable. I guess it is better than ""eye balling"" the angle, but not by much."
71173,1,"Not a Revolution, weak music, don't buy.","Here we go, another racist rapper who blames every problem he has had or people that look like him has ever had on white people, the beats are ok, all samples of other peoples music really, rhymes, well some will say truth but really not at all, immortal whatever suffers the big problem most people suffer, unable to except responsibility for their own mistakes and problems, I guess it's just easier to blame someone else for anything wrong in the world and who is the perfect scape goat for low self esteem ignorant racist people like this guy and ( most rappers ), the white man of course, if he has such a problem with America then maybe he should move back to Peru."
71217,1,3rd Attempt,"I am in the process of returning my 2nd home kit. ""Antenna Not Detected"". The unit works fine in the car, but will not recognize the antenna at home. This is a different error msg than signal lost.Called Tech Support they suggested I return the base unit and try again. Overall my opinion of Sirius support (lack thereof) is growing daily. Sorry had issues with the initial purchase of activation."
71233,1,The worst move ever made!,If there was a rating of less than 1 star- or actually negative number of stars- this movie is worthy. A friend claimed they had seen the worst movie ever made- Jason X- but I assured him I could top it!! I was glad the movie was so cheap when I looked it up so I could prove my point. I'd have never spent $10 or more on it. There is no part of this move I didn't hate. But if horrible movies are you thing this is the one for you!
71251,1,For people with straight hair.,"I have tried two bottles of this stuff over the past couple years...and it frankly isn't worth the money.I hate John Frieda's products in general, but this one really sucks. When you put the product on your fingers and rub, it has this weird texture. It does nothing good for my thick, wavy hair. I have tried with wet hair, dry hair, both! It either does nothing or makes my hair look greasy and awkwardly flat in some areas and poofy in the others.DO NOT RECOMMEND."
71286,1,"Poorly made, save your money","Motor failed just out of warranty; fix cost over $400. Flimsy parts, tabs that break easily. Cleans pool, but you'll find sediment back on the bottom within an hour. Save your money and go with a cheap cleaner; results likely to be the same."
71344,1,Very Dissapointing!!,"This album doesn't even compare to Sparkle and Fade. This was much more easy listening. Songs like ""I Will Buy You a New Life"" and ""Father of Mine"" got really annoying after the first couple of times that I heard them. The band should go back to their old ways of Sparkle and Fade."
71384,1,Didn't like it at all,"Shakespeare is certainly considered to be one of the greatest authors of all times, but I don't really know why. Maybe I haven't understood the whole meaning of the play; to me it seemed quite boring and too predictable. It's a story about power and abusing power, about traitors and morality, decorated with many complicated sentences and words."
71407,1,Problem after problem,"I purchased this printer at a local BJ's wholesale store. The instructions were clear and easy to read, so set up was a cinch. I immediately began printing wirelessly from my PC and from a memory card inserted directly into the printer. The quality was great and I was impressed with the machine.That is until I tried scanning or copying, which came out pitch black. After a long time on the phone with HP's support, I was told something was wrong with the mirrors and we could get a refurbished one sent to me. I declined and went back to BJ's and got a new one. I set that one up and discovered that the small color display didn't work on this one. I called HP again and they were unable to fix it and offered the same refurbished deal. Two brand new printers fresh out of the box that are both defective are too much for me. See you later, HP!"
71452,1,I wasted my money,The tests in this book do not approximate the difficulty of the real test. Practice tests like this do a disservice to students who go into the test thinking they are better prepared for it than they are.
71496,1,bad Ni Cads........,"great lil saw BUT Milwaukee 18 V NiCads suck!!! buy this bare bones and add Lith Ions, u will be happier......."
71544,1,price gouging,for those that are considering buying this copy here...don't. the exact same book is being sold through barns and nobles website for $17.98. why is this copy being sold with a $10 markup?
71585,1,WAY too small,"I wish I had read more. I figured Hanes = Quality = No Problems. I am normally an XL, got a 2X because I wanted it loose and comfy for the summer, and it is HORRIBLE. It's TIGHT. It should NOT BE TIGHT."
71586,1,This charger is a cheap piece of worthless junk,"I bought this charger for my Samsung that I just bought from Cingular.The first time I used it in my office, it completely discharged my battery. The second time (dumb me!), it started making my screen flash and the phone to make beeping noises, like it was being shorted out.Threw the thing right in the trash can."
71615,1,"""American"" Lawn Mover made in CHINA!","I really give it zero starts. This does not fit the mower it is advertised with, nor the sizes it states it accomodates. Another crappy Chinese product."
71712,1,The mosquitoes are getting smarter!!!!,"Mosquitoes are focusing on human body and have the tendency to stay away from the trap... on the other hand we are catching all kind of insects. I feel that I am taking the dinner away from the bats and other predators.The company should create new look, new scent or new color to outsmart these most disturbing insects."
71728,1,"Terrible movie, read the reviews that give it one star...","This movie is just awful. I watched the first 10 minutes and thought it would be interesting. I was wrong. Anything the movie does well ends right before the real plot of the film starts. There's nothing interesting to it.If I were any of the people involved in this piece of garbage, I'd be sure to omit it from my resume."
71751,1,pretty good but....,"i use my computer for mostly games and also for typeing college papers. i dont know all of the techinical details about the product so i am gonna keep it simple. for the most part there is a big improvement from the privious versions. but i own about 50 or more PC games and when i upgraded, about all of them aren't compatible! 50 games is alot of money when your a college student! now all of my games are useless. when microsoft came out with the windows 98 upgrade all of my windows 95 games worked great. now they are useless. besides the fact of games and other programs not being compatible with it, it is a very nice program. If you are not a gamer this is highly recomended. If you are a gamer stick with windows 98, and/or windows ME."
71771,1,DO NOT BUY THIS!!,"This was a waste of my time and money. On first use, it cracked and broke while I was trying to remove chocolate from it. I would never buy this again. I expected more quality of a product from Wilton."
71774,1,Head fell off,"The tripod head fell off literally the first time that I used it. There is no way to screw it back on. If I had had a camera on it it would have fallen right off and broken. Terrible quality, don't buy it. Seriously."
71890,1,Dont Make the mistake buying this,I purchased this by mistake and Amazon will not take it back. I meant to purchase the six count which costs only $5.66 each which is less than half the cost of this single count product. I ordered this one in error and Amazon wont let me return it even for an exchange.
71958,1,Poor video quality.,"I think this DVD was mastered from a television broadcast. The video quality is very bad, and ""R"" rated words are omitted from the audio portion. Not bleeped, there's just a ""moment of silence"" when a character in the film curses. The picture of Mitchum on the cover was taken at least 20 years before the film was made."
71982,1,Disappointment,"I am deeply disappointed by the so-called Beatles Anthology since all three CDs contain just a couple of originally recorded songs which is not mentioned in the advertisement. I consider this a certain breach of trust at least as far as my personal relationship with Amazon is concerned. I will return the CDs.--Wolfgang Seibel, Zumsteinstr. 11, 78464 Konstanz, Germany"
71993,1,Read this only if you have the time,"American Cold War history and the players who shaped events during this time make it one of the most interesting eras to study. Mr. Chace does a fine job in researching the facts. But the book gets bogged down in the smallest and most trivial details of Mr. Acheson's life (as noted by several reviewers below). You lose a sense of what Mr. Acheson is doing. I simply find it hard to believe that one reviewer below stated: ""Chace manages to render a full portrait of Acheson without getting bogged down in the minutiae of his long and extraordinary public life."" The book is so full of minutiae that few people will want to finish reading it.I do recommend this book for students and history buffs who want to confirm certain facts of Mr. Acheson's life and policies. Otherwise, an edited edition of this book will go a long way for many readers interested in Cold War history."
72011,1,It's not what it claims to be.,My first attempt using this tool ended in failure. The blade snapped off while I was cutting a hedge branch no larger than 1.5 inches. This aside the tool probably performs adequately if it were not for the flimsy cutting blade
72078,1,"Great Step Stool, but horrible toy!","I bought two of these last year, One for a gift & one for my 6 year old son who is addicted to Rescue Heroes...we have almost everything that has been made in the RH line. I am a big fan of the Fisher Price RH, they are very durable and fun. However, this Aqua Center was truly a disappointment as others have said, it is really big and bulky. My son played with it for a few days but quickly lost his interest in it. My son does use it for a step stool and my daughter who is 7 likes to dance on it like a stage and she does have tea parties (using it for a table), I will say, it is very well made and durable but really a boring toy. Your child would have a lot more fun playing with all the men, their motorcycles, cars, firetrucks, helicopters, etc. I would not recommend this unless you need a really large stool plus this toy is WAY over priced."
72090,1,There are worse things than death...,"And buying this failure is one of them. Using this little bugger to cool yourself off is as smart an idea as is using an airplane to kill a mosquito. It just doesn't get the job done effectively. The ""breeze"" can only be felt two inches beyond the vent."
72201,1,Cyber (Yawn) Tracker,"Watched this DVD after gettin it for free, laughable poor boring action movie, trys to be a Arnie, Sly, action epic, from the same era, but fails terribly in all departments, I realise the movie is dated, but that doesnt account for the abismal acting and meaningless and boring plot, a great film to fall asleep to or to recommend to someone you don't really like, overall i think 1 star is being too generous for this movie but i couldnt rate it any lower!"
72220,1,Skip it!,Movie was way too long and there was very little plot. Girl loses house due to her inability to open her own mail. Man buys foreclosed house so that he can have some money to support his family. Conflict arise and it takes forever to resolve. Ben Kingsley is a wonderful actor and Jennifer Connelly is a great actress but I would not recommend that you waste your time seeing this movie.
72221,1,How can this be rated 5*,"Acting good/very good - Ben Kingsley does a great job of keeping you in the film BUT what an appalling, depressing and unlikely tale. The ending was bizarre and painful.This had the makings of something interesting, with plenty of possibilities but at somepoint the writer decided everything must be dark, deep and awful."
72291,1,Too hard for Me,This game is so hard. I cant even solve the first puzzle! I'm eleven soon to be twelve and I'm in all honors but this handheld game is too darn hard. Believe me if u want this game then you have to very very smart.GOOD LUCK!
72296,1,Cheap,"This is really cheaply made; I didn't expect very much for the price, but it was far less than expected."
72356,1,The missed Memo,I am assuming the author has missed the various memos on the refutation of a historical Jesus. There is NO evidence for Jesus. Anything beyond this proposition is intellectual dishonesty.
72377,1,Disappointing,"Let's get this out of the way quickly. Those seeking masterly interpretations of these often recorded songs (R Strauss' Four Last Songs) need to visit the Sinopoli/Dresden with the diamantine Cheryl Studer. It does not get any better than that. Besides, you get unparalleled accounts of Wagner's Wesendonk-Lieder and a Liebestod (from Wagner's Tristan und Isolde) for the ages."
72456,1,The name says it all,"Don't waste your time or money with the flick. It is not a ""Black Comedy"", it's just a lame attempt at one to give slow-witted teens something to laugh at. Violent films don't offend me, but this is nothing but random violence put together for some unknown reason. Christian Slater needs a serious beat-down. This movie is truly very bad."
72468,1,Bad movie,"I watched this movie on New Years Eve and thought it was just terrible. It was a boring, stupid, colorless movie. It could have been a good movie given the actors it had but was so disappointing."
72494,1,"Poor quality control, construction","First one I bought, audio cable shorted out after a few months. Purchased a replacement, that one had a snapped circuit board where read head is mounted. Sent that back, bought another one, read head was misaligned and only played through right channel. Overall, I would say this item has very poor quality control and cheap construction. Would recommend looking elsewhere for a cassette adapter."
72512,1,This cd [stinks],I did not enjoy this cd. I wanted more emo rock out of this and instead i got some bad music. If your into techno this is your cd.
72538,1,Way too short and repetitive!,"The review by Bovey is spot-on! These games have gotten more boring as they go. The majority of this game is spent looking for the same shells over and over to make the same necklaces over and over....how much is enough? There was no real sense of scariness or danger... just boredom! And the game was so short... suddenly it ended! I am so disappointed in what these games have become. I loved The Final Scene, I even liked Blackmoor Manor even though I could never have finished it without consulting a walkthrough. This game was just lame. I don't recommend paying full price for it."
72588,1,WASTE!!!,Unfortunately i have to agree with all the negative review. I am amaze that amazon is still selling this item after all the negative remarks. Purchase these mats for my honda crv and a friend saw thm and practically beg for them because it matches his interior so i sold it to him.Two days later he return them all torn and with holes.
72606,1,Garbage,"This book is uniformly praised by ignorant people who want to believe the Warren Commission. Posner saw an opportunity to take their money, and he took it. Good for him. I'm sure if there was a sizeable market of people wanting to believe OJ was innocent, he'd write that book too, with all sorts of convincing ""scientific"" evidence. Take a look at Weisberg's Case Open, if you can find it, for documentation of some of Posner's more amusing misrepresentations."
72620,1,Worse than the first,"And I thought that one was pretty awful. My kids loved the first one so I took them to this one - judging by thier reactions, they didn't like it as much either. The plot is lame, thin and a kid over 9 would agree that it is pretty silly to the point of stupidity. The special effects are by far and away the worst I have seen in a movie in a long time. My kids kept commenting ""that looks fake"". To say the least, they were awful, not one effect looked real in the least. The characters had even less development than the first and the acting, even the acting of relatively accomplished actors such as Banderas and Buschimi was strained and contrived. Very young children will enjoy seeing the Spy Kids again, parents should simply do themselves a favor and nap through this dog."
72667,1,Another load of hogwash from a proven dissembler,"Brock is right...his behavior in the past was sleazy...and continues to be. This man clearly has no spine, a jellyfish in the tide of life who will change his entire persona on a whim. He has absolutely NOTHING interesting to say in this text (that is, anything that he most likely did not invent)."
72679,1,This is part of a boxed set.,"This is not a freestanding album nor should it be sold as such - it is CD no. 1 in a boxed set. (I own the set.) See the purple ""1"" on the cover."
72698,1,Waste,"Hated it! Ok, the dish is really cute. However, it would not be helpful for an outdoor event. The area that holds the ice is a joke - it would probably hold about 1/2cup of crushed ice. So think about that prior to making your purchase. This dish would not be suitable for an outdoor event. So if you want a cute bowl for indoor entertaining, then this is it!"
72751,1,"radiation, monsters, babes on the beach, and good guys from the government","I love old monster movies when they have a jot of originality and acting that isn't at least bad. Alas, some monster movies are so bad that you can't even laugh at them. The rubber suit looks ridiculous but not funny, there is nothing to generate any interest in sitting through it, and the acting is utterly abysmal.Not recommended. Like really really not recommended."
72787,1,Same as the rest - False Alarms! Piece of Garbage,"These alarms are so bad. They have kept me and my 5 children up many nights scared to go to bed at the anticipation of another false alarm - and major adrenaline rush. FYI - don't do what I did and try to smash it down if you did purchase it - it has radioactive material inside the metal chamber. I had 12 of these in my house and high ceilings - please, please don't make the same mistake!"
72792,1,Incomplete information,"Beautifully photographed, but the instructions lacked completeness. I found them lacking"
72820,1,Pretty Lame,Saw this at the Plaza Theatre in Atlanta.Boring. Horrible editing. Shot with crappy camcorders.I cannot imagine how anyone who isn't related to or sleeping with Rick Cohenfound this entertaining.
72861,1,Garbage - Don't Buy,"It's cheaply priced, because it's a cheaply made garbage. I bought two - small and medium - for my 2 dogs. Both of them were broken when delivered. I returned the items to the seller. This is a discontinued product by manufacturer. Why discontinued? Because they were poor products. Don't buy.Also be alerted that the seller is not familiar with Amazon transactions. When I contacted the seller to complain that both were broken, they had no clue how they handle the refund. One of the least satisfying transactions on Amazon for me."
72898,1,"say, you could make a nicer investment somewhere else","I do not need to say much, after 2-3 times listening to it, I got really tired of her. Maybe her next album is better, maybe worse that's what I'm pointing out now."
72920,1,The New Broadway Recording of Grease,I find this music too commercialized. The real flavor of the original Grease is lost to the bubblegum sound of the songs. I've listened quite a few times and I just can't get into it. The sound just doesn't have the edge of the Original Grease. And Rosie O'Donnell needed more time in the vocal studio working on singing vowels and supporting her breath. Buy the original!
73019,1,Not good,"This movie was the worst marvel movie made so far. The first 20 minutes of the movie were when Bruce was a child. Ang Lee got to much into the backround of Bruce's character.There were only three fights in the whole movie!!!! The worst thing about it was that 2 of the fights were bad and so was the CGI. People didn't go to the movie to watch the Hulk's past,they went to see Hulk smash and destroy things and fight the army."
73142,1,"Very, very bad-not worth anyone's time","This movie is extremely bad-a complete waste of time. I think Jack is great, but this movie is horrible and is not at all related to the book."
73184,1,"great movie, good features, flimsy package","E.T is one of the best family films ever made and one of the highest grossing films of all time, Universal really botched this dvd release on many levels, First off there is no audio commentery by anyone, i know speliburg will not do commenteries...Enough complaining let me complaiment on the few things universal got Right the Galleries on disc two are nice photos of memborillia and production photos, drawings of E.T etc, The sound is great and I like the option of Having both versions of the film, The only other dvds I own and am aware of that feature movies on both discs are Sherk and Glory which are only formatted differently on each disc. Bottom Line this Dvd is far from what i would have liked for E.T , but it's better then nothing if your a die hard fan. Please note the two star rating is for the dvd release the movie itself is a five."
73211,1,Disappointing,"I was drawn by the nostalgia of generations of genuine Gottlieb pinball tables but soon found the physics of the games troubling. The ball has a 'mind of it's own' and many shots are extremely predictable which ruins the fun. Also, 3 of the 5 tables have 'background' music which overwhelm the original game sounds. Graphically the tables look great but the surely Microsoft could do bettter. Nice try Bill but no winner."
73212,1,dry,it just to dry !!!! it cake and i did a pordect review on tubeyou by our women they did not like pordect and i do not like at all
73217,1,The defuser Melted at the bottom and was a fire hazard. Also made the place smell like burning plastic.,however I manage to save the pharmone oil and put in in a spray bottle with water and the do scratch less. It would best to invest in the spray and its cheaper too.
73319,1,Avoid This Box Set! Great Songs horrible idea,I ordered this because I love most of Robbie Williams songs and this box set containes 19 chart hits across 19 individual CD singles. What a waste! I think the outer packaging is excellent but who wants to change a cd after every song??I recommend the Asian edition...much better.
73321,1,dont wast your time,this is very bad cd. every thing about the mixing the recording it terrible. this album is not worth the money. people say they are the next AC/DC but AC/DC is way way way way better then these guys.
73361,1,And the worst song ever is................,"............... HEADSTRONG!!!!!!!!!! That's right. This contains the worst, most grating, irritating song ever recorded. Every time I hear it that song is like a sledgehammer to the groin. Enjoy."
73390,1,Not worth the money,"When I purchased A Turtle's Tale: Sammy's Adventures I was thinking it was going to be a spin off of the turtles from Finding Nemo; I was completely wrong. This cartoon was politically generated, which isn't a bad thing, but not meant for younger children. It's a great thing to raise awareness and it's beneficial to do it while people are young so it's a part of their lives, but let kids be kids. Create a cartoon that's funny, entertaining, and grabs attention without putting any spin to it.For those parents wanting a cute, wholesome, entertaining movie keep looking because this is not it."
73394,1,Too much like candy,"These dried strawberries do taste good - indeed, they're addictive. When I eat one, I usually end up eating several more. But they're too sweet. The sugary taste and texture of this brand of dried strawberries makes me feel like I'm eating candied strawberries. This wasn't what I expected from the description. I should have paid more attention to the other review that complains of over-sweetening. Don't buy these, unless you want to eat strawberry candy; buy another brand which lets you enjoy the natural strawberry flavor and texture more."
73397,1,Boring!,"I couldn't wait for this movie to end! It was billed as ""edge of your seat suspense thriller."" I was never once on the edge of my seat! Sam Neill is usually a great actor, but not in this one. The movie begins with a scene of Neill being told his wife and 2-year-old son were in an accident and the son died. This tragic scenario, which Neill responds to blandly, bears no relation to the rest of the movie, except to explain how tranquillizers got on the boat they were on - they played a minor role in one instance. The plot was not for a moment even remotely believable - Kidman pretends to fall in love with a man who is attacking her to get him off his guard, and then has sex with him. She goes from tormented and hysterical to totally in control like someone threw a switch in her brain. There was no excitement, no redeeming message, no emotional drama. Quite frankly, I didn't seem to care one bit what was going to happen to any of the characters. I was bored and glad it was over!"
73430,1,Had to Send it back twice,First one that sent would not even power up. I sent it back and the second one they sent also would not power up. It's possible that it really isn't compatible with my Intel-Mac the way it says it is-- but I'm sticking to Lacie in the future.
73439,1,VS developers: Stay FAR FAR away,"I rank this book among one of the worst computer books I have ever read. ... It is filled with redundant code, poor examples and plenty of bad jokes. This book was written for masochistic notepad coders who like command line compilers. For any Visual Studio developer looking for an excellent reference text, advice on proper coding strategies, and a book that is worth what you paid for it, stay FAR FAR away, as this book is none of the above and doesn't even acknowledge the existence of VS.NET."
73471,1,A Terrible Edition of a Wonderful Book,"This is an important and worthwhile study, and relatively unsung. I recommend reading the book, but you'd be making a big mistake if you tried to read it in this edition. I'm not sure how the book was printed, but it looks like a photoreproduction, and a sketchy one at that, of an old, tiny, and all-but-unreadable typeface. The publishing information indicates that it is an edition from India in the 1940s, and I'd guess that the original typesetting was pretty old by the time this printing was produced. In short, it looks like a photocopy of a worn-out setting of bad type. Some pages are illegible. A few others, near the beginning, are actually missing. Caudwell was a promising author before his early, tragic death, and he deserves better than this. So do you."
73481,1,Not worth the money ... sorry,"I have used this product for over a year now, and can honestly say that it's not worth the money.Transcoding video is faster (tried MacBook Pro and Mac Pro) and more flexible (more options in settings and such) when doing it without the Elgato Turbo ...This might be a product useful for G3 owners?"
73598,1,Waste of money!!!,This software doesn't even work on lion IOS! I've contacted Chessmaster company and they can't even give me an explanation for the problem. Like I said-waste of money!!!
73833,1,WHEEL COVER...,"IT IS VERY CUTE, HOWEVER I HAVE A NEW CIVIC, IT FITS BUT HAS MAYBE AN INCH EXTRA. I WOULD RECOMMEND IT FOR ONLY THOES WITH LARGER STEERING WHEELS."
73861,1,dull...........,"It may have been considered satirical science fiction in its time, but I found this limp story uneventful and quite boring. The musicians who somehow find the island are not the least bit interesting.The story is supposed to be anti-capitalism and anti ""Big Science"" but I didn't see much in the way of convincing arguments. People will always be power hungry and petty, but this doesn't necessarily mean there are limits to the good things that science and society can achieve."
73866,1,Buyers beware!,"The product is a great idea but it floats on top of the water. I spent $24 on a huge stainless steel nut (which I put in the strap section) to weight it down and make it sink. Unfortunately, even with it submerged I discovered this type of gentle washing (no direct friction) doesn't remove body oils or lotion that builds up on the straps. After spending a ton of money I'm hand washing my bras anyway. Bummer!"
73877,1,Very Disappointed!,"This is one of those rare books that I actually returned and asked for a refund. I know Calculus quite well, having studied it in college. Unfortunately, the presentation in textbooks is usually quite dry. I had hoped this popular book would bring out the beauty and elegance of the subject, making it come alive. It did not. The writing is dull and verbose, and the explanations are confusing. I feel sorry for anyone whose introduction to Calculus comes from this book. Save your money!"
73919,1,creed,creed's my own prison was a good albumn but this is one of the worst that i have ever heard. Higher was over played on every on radio station in my town. it is still being played and this song has been out for over a year. please people don't buy this creed albumn buy my own prison it is 5 times better.
73934,1,"Wtf is this crap, All these songs are knock off's",These songs are horrible knock-off's of the originals and sound like garbage. I can't believe ppl are buying these over the originals. People please listen to the original and you'll see. How can you attempt to mimick Phil collins or cyndie lauper... insanity.
73975,1,HAS TO BE THE WORST BLACK METAL ALBUM OF ALL TIME,Ok kids stop telling me this is BLACK METAL this is FREAKIN NOT Black Metal. AC/DC are BLACK METAL. Seriously if the devil heard this he would Torture all you emo kids. Seriously dont tell me this is BLACK METAL.
73999,1,Zzzzzzzz...*snort* Zzzzzzzz....,"Yeah. It was pretty bad. Let me tell you though---the kid from E.T. did a fantastic job, as well as his pal (the old scientist that could've been Jim Carey's father in another life). The direction wasn't bad at all in that sense.But like so many previous reviewers have stated...this is not horror. This is more like a watered-down ""Twilight Zone"" with boobs. And the boobs are great and all, but they don't make up for this pile of crap story.""I tasted someone else's chocolate!"" I think that line was borrowed from a vague blaxploitation film from the 70's.Currently, ""Chocolate"" is competing against ""Dreams in the Witch House"" for crappiest ""Masters of Horror"" yet.Congratulations guys!"
74029,1,I was expecting more,"Here I was in the store, rejoicing that I finally found ""Brown""! I had heard about it, hadn't heard it, so I bought it. I was in for a surprise - POD just, well, wasn't very good back in their olden days. It feels like the wrote one long song with absolutely no musical variation, chopped it up into little lengths and called them songs. The only reason we've got 2 stars instead of 1 is because the lyrics are the saving grace. (although they did somehow manage to butcher ""Full Color""). Still, if you're a hardcore fan, go for it. I'm not one, so I just get disappointed."
74091,1,Poor amount of gore,"Being a big fan of this genre of films, and Lucio Fulci. I expected much more from this film and was sadly dissapointed. It is very slow to get started, and there is actually very small amounts of gore. Although the head drilling scene is horrific, and one of the worst scenes that i have evr seen in a movie, very little else happens. The film struggles, and for a Zombie film there is a distinct lack of zombie action. I am a massive fan Zombie, and have just purchased the beyond and New York Ripper, and of all the Fulci films, City of the Living Dead is a poor effort"
74146,1,Even for a lame chick flick it sucks hard.,"This movie is stupid, pointless, boring, runs on and on, is not funny, gets annoying and is just a total mess. These type of movies sucks anyway but this is one of the worst I have had the displeasure of watching. Vince Vaughn & Reese play the same boring roles they play in every movie they are in....lame."
74236,1,This broke immediately,Very cute but unfortunately it is cheaply made. The handle broke immediately. Be aware that it is very tiny too.
74301,1,Misrepresentation of Product,Photograph shows 1 spindle pack of 50 disks.That's not what you get.You will receive 1 single disk. Mine arrived damaged.
74339,1,13 Months,"Bought it in the middle of last September. Now, the motor's dead in slightly over a year. It was melted in (glad there was no fire). Bummed out because my cats loved it. It should definitely have lasted longer."
74412,1,Atrocious,"I fondly remembered watching the first episode of Pink Lady and Jeff when it first aired. So, I bought the dvd boxed set. I was a pre-teen when this abomination first aired, and I admit I had pretty lousy taste. So now I own this thing. I haven't been able to get through a whole episode yet because it is absolutely horrible. It might be fun to play in the background at a party, but it's physically painful to actually sit down and watch. Beware of those who say it's so bad that it's funny. It's so bad, it's worse than you can imagine."
74420,1,ALL OMEGA WATCHES SOLD ON AMAZON ARE FAKE,"do not spend your money on luxury watches. they will be shipped from Malaysia, and are Fake.there is little recourse - so don't waste your time."
74423,1,Kitchen Faucet = Shower,"I just purchased and installed this faucet and with that I would have rated it 5 stars. Then my wife went to turn it on to test and the faucet sends water all over instead of just straight down. I thought it was the aerator so I cleaned, inspected, reassembled and tried again. No luck.... It is very disappointing that you really can't test water flow in the store<vbg>.I will probably try another aerator before taking the unit out and replacing it with another brand. I also submitted my problem to PP to see what they say. I have had Kohler with not great results so I tried a PP. Not recommended at all."
74460,1,This book did nothing for me,"Although it tries to help, I am still addicted to pornography. I seem to be using it more now than ever before."
74499,1,So many things wrong with this mixer,"I'll admit, I bought this mixer because I liked the look. Never again will I make that mistake.#1 Like other reviews have mentioned, there is no slow speed. There are only very slightly varying degrees of high.#2 The button for releasing the beaters is AWFUL. For one thing, it is VERY hard to push in and hurts my thumb every time and if you forgot to unplug the mixer you end up turning it back on because it is much easier for the lever to slip upwards than it is to get it pushed in.I'm also not a fan of the display stand because it takes more time than I would like to coil the cord & get it to stay underneath, but that part is my fault for not realizing that it wasn't a retractable cord.All in all I have wanted to replace this mixer since the first time I used it and have been attempting to rationalize buying a new one even though it's only a year old and my last one lasted me 15 years."
74559,1,Snooze-o-rama,"If this were not Radiohead, nobody would be buying or listening to it. And that's a fact. That said, ""Optimistic"" is a great, great Radiohead song; the rest sounds like you're listening to a seashell or to white noise."
74576,1,Disappointing for a Haynes Manual,I have found incorrect descriptions of procedures that have made the job more difficult. The instruction for removing a clip-on windshield wiper was the opposite of what should be done. There are references to a picture showing removal of the panel trim in front of the radio. The picture does not exist. These errors came up with the first 2 jobs that I referred to the manual about. That is a poor batting average!
74634,1,Wouldn't cut hot butter,"I first tried a tomato, a really tough-skinned 'mater and came away with a mess. So then I tried a cucumber and it still made a mess. The blade seemed incredibly dull. I have returned it and cannot recommend it."
74635,1,TERRIBLE PRODUCT! COMPLETELY INEFFECTIVE!!!!!,"This pen looks good and is very lightweight, but is designed terribly. Every other panel is about 2 inches off the ground which allows any dog to put their nose under it, and be out in 2 minutes or less. If you leave your dog for even a few minutes, do not expect them to be there when you return."
74659,1,"We are in the Pacific now, not Europe.",I loved the new planes. The missions are flakey. Many missions don't give you enough fuel to successfully complete the objective. What's with the Japanese medals? They are the same as the German medals. Pretty disappointing. I don't recommend this as an add on to the World War II Europe series.
74685,1,DO NOT RENT,"The video here is of unbelievably bad quality. It seems to have been a transfer from a video tape, and it is just awful. Even worse, the dubbing is laughable. Don't rent this unless you want to re-live the old days of bad movie theaters with prints that are falling apart and the dialogue that just doesn't make sense."
74717,1,NOT STUDENT FRIENDLY,"I used the 4th edition at my university. I looked through the 5th edition in hopes of seeing improvements. There are none. If you are unfortunate enough to need this book for class; I am sorry. There are much better texts out there. This book, or the authors, seem to take pride in making this material harder than it actually is. Don't expect to learn from this book, find other resources"
74831,1,Shallow and short,Not very valuable. Each chapter is very short and very shallow. Not much to this book at all. I would not recommend it.
74861,1,IT ONLY WORKS FOR ONE YEAR,"I purchased this program a few years ago, dont remember it fixing anything for 50 bucks, got a new laptop, tried to reinstall it, serial number didnt work, called in, stayed on hold for 10-15 minutes, then rep told me it had a subscription for a year. What a joke, I didnt buy it for virus removal, I wanted to have it whenever i wanted to do a little tune up or troubleshoot something, I didnt wanna pay 50 bucks to use something ONE time, why wouldnt I just take it some where and pay 50-60 bucks, they promote this software as a ""use us instead of the PC repair guy"". Run from this POS and download glary for free."
74864,1,"Big Man, Big Ego, Little Morals","Lots of country-boy-grows-up stories to warm the heart (the ice cube episode and the wrong shoe size stood out particularly). Yet the older he gets, the less we like him. Lots of Islamic proselytizing, yet he glosses over his illegitimate children and his childish contract renegotiation. Latter half of this book seems to have been vetted by his Svengali-like agent David Falk. The overwhelming theme of this book is ""anything wrong in my life, not my fault"". A great role model for his generation."
74961,1,Cheap,"I bought this set because I couldn't find Chick anywhere else and I discovered that the cars are made of cheap plastic rather than the nice die-cast like the other cars we have been collecting.It sounds like a good deal, but its not."
75060,1,I was not please at all!,"All of the reviews I read I thought what a great deal. I purchased 12 batteries ofPowerex AA 2700mAh NiMH Rechargeable Batteries w/holder- 4 Batteries Per Packthese plus the charger and I was greatly disappointed in both. Did not get the the charge lenth or power out put. I read the booklet and under stood how this system works. I found that Harbor frieght has better batteries, and do last longer and cheaper. thank you for read of this."
75173,1,FAN - TASY............,"TWO [marginal] stars! Yet another misplaced Luke Skywalker clone-type saga - will it never end? AND just where is the originality? A totally unrealistic fantasy about 'boarding-school'!Some of the 'effects' throw us straight into Great George Pal territory! Not sure if that's a good or bad thing.Maggie Smith, Richard Harris [Camelot's misplaced Merlin?] could have phoned their performances in!The best thing of all? ALAN RICKMAN! Says more with just a glance.....Only IF you must....."
75289,1,A big disappointment,"This movie has the right pedigree - Coen brothers, George Clooney, throwback genre - but it plays surprisingly flat, its subpar script and forced performances pointing to the same issue: A general lack of conviction.OK, Catherine Zeta-Jones is mostly on message, and Billy Bob Thornton gets into the right spirit. But otherwise the characters are thin (or just plain annoying) and the actors overcompensate by playing up the offbeat, perhaps thinking that quirkiness is all it takes to make a Coen brothers movie. The tone here is set by Clooney, who can't seem to decide whether he's in The Philadelphia Story or O Brother Where Art Thou? His broad touches might work better if this were a funnier movie, but here he's just trying too hard.Though they wrote it - or at least punched it up - this script doesn't do the Coen brothers right. Alas, they seem to know it, and so do their performers."
75299,1,Never Gets There,"The story, acting and plot were, in a word, stilted. Everything seemed very predictable. First, we have a little girl who couldn't possibly be evil..or could she? Then, the social worker who is the archetype defender of the weak who can't be shaken...or can she? Then, the best friend who, by definition of best friend, is doomed. And the abrasive, but heroic, cop friend....can you say 'next'? It just felt like an equation with no real surprise and easy to solve.The little girl's character, however, is creepy. Not much of a stilt to support the weight of a bad movie. Even so, it gets two stars because, did I mention...the kid's creepy."
75367,1,I would not recommend this Grisham novel to anyone.,"This book really disappointed me. The beginning was really good when the homeless man trapped everyong in the office. When that episode ended, so did the interest of the book. It wasn't compelling. I wish John Grisham would go back to the formula he used with his earlier novels. Believe me it worked."
75378,1,dr srings,well had nothing but problems with thies they break real fast no life to them u figure u would get more than 2 weeks use for 10 doller strings
75460,1,thrill quickly wears off,"my 2 yo has had it for 2 weeks, and after the first day hasn't picked it up again. This toy is heavy, the mechanical noises are loud and movements jerky. It's not very cuddly and it's hard to carry. An ordinary talking elmo or plain stuffed elmo would probably have gone over just as well. She's played more with creative nonelectronic toys, or electronic toys that play more songs she can sing and dance to. A toy only for the elmo or hokey-pokey obsessed."
75462,1,Most annoying toy ever created!,"My kids liked it for all of 10 minutes, and then kept getting frustrated because he would tip over while doing the motions to the hokey pokey. It DOES NOT sing the entire song at a time, is very loud, and I certainly didn't see any educational value to it. My brother in law bought it for us as he was trying to find the loudest, most annoying toy in the store, and I think he succeeded in his mission. Unless your kids are huge Elmo fans, I would not recommend this at all."
75501,1,Not moved,"I'm going to assume the book ""I Captured the Castle"" is better than the movie. The cinematography is excellent, and the acting is decent all around except for the lead character played by Romola Garai. In her most dramatic scene, a confrontation with her father, she played out her emotions in an over-slow, melodramatic manner like a bad, bad stage play. I'll give her a break because this is one of her first films, but thank goodness Bill Nighy carried the rest of the scene. The funny thing is when you listen to Romola during her interview in the special features, you think ""Why couldn't we get this part of you in the film""? She's an intelligent and witty woman, but her performance as the lead character was just underwhelming. That's a horrible shame. The lead always sets the tone for the film. This would explain why the movie seemed to drag.I found this film to be a bore despite the wonderful talent."
75511,1,"Spirits, Fairies, Leprechauns, and Goblins","Not really crazy about this book. It is not playful, and is too much like a research/fact book. Like going out and learning all the botanical names for flowers, rather than seeing the beauty of them"
75519,1,A Poorly Written attempt at the Etiquette Genre.,"As if their website wasn't obnoxious enough, the ""Etiquette Grrls"" have their own book. Others have already tackled the slightly-acidic etiquette genre and have done it much better (Judith Martin springs to mind). The point is, the genre didn't need an overly bombastic and egotistical attempt from two [people] with superiority complexes about their Princeton/prep school educations. Others have already commented on the irksome and apparently random capitalization found in their book. As far as their writing style goes, it just seems cramped and forced, as it reads like a badly-written joke that ran on too far. Worse, the book doesn't even focus on etiquette, it just reads like a 224-page whinefest about worst-case scenario rudeness, interspersed with unenlightening, frustratingly obvious ""rules"" for everyday behavior. If the EGs were hoping to enrich the etiquette literature selection that is available, they've utterly failed."
75563,1,F#&^%ing Fiction,"Simple: The film-makers state at the beginning of the movie that it is true.They lied.Then they continue to lie. . .And lie. . .And lie. . .I don't care that it was suspenseful, that the acting was good, that the camera work was professional. I do care that I was being lied to.Not thieves. . .Liars."
75590,1,Overly formulistic,"Dispite the reviews on the Amazon web page ruining any suspense and giving away all of the plot turns i finished this book anyway. It is unfortunatly overly formulistic and extremly predictable, sadly i have read this book before in several guises. Shame it's a good title. And not a bad premise."
75679,1,Sony PSP Pro Gamer's Kit,"This kit is a great value for all the items you get inside. However, its difficult for children to return the cords to their proper place which makes it very difficult to close. Not really user friendly. I had problems too. Your better off with a small back pack or something."
75739,1,Humility? Reticence? Anything?,"Listening to the first cut, I'm thinking, ""Yeah, alright."" By the 4th or 5th cut I'm thinking, ""Let me outta here.""Buddy's drumming becomes so insistent, so look-at-me, so in-your-face (""Big Swing Face"" indeed) that it fatigues the poor listener. So much of big-band drumming is when NOT to play, a lesson that Buddy evidently did not learn. ""Art lies in the concealment of art,"" as someone wise once said. There's a reason why he is held in such low esteem among the players. It's all about Buddy."
75748,1,great idea but,"needs improvement. The pin/bolt is too short, and it does not reach long enough to pass the rail over which the door slides to lock on the floor. What I did was basically drill a 3/4"" hole in the floor and place a stainless steel piece of pipe protruding about one inch over the floor, inside the rail, so that the bolt lock there, problem solved, works great but2 stars for all the trouble involved in installing."
75886,1,Worst book I've ever read,This is by far the worst book I have ever read. I was looking for a good read for my Thanksgiving break when I came across this title in Essence Magazine's top ten Fictional paperbacks.I kept hoping it would get better but it never did. The writing was very poor and the plot line was predictable. I could not connect with any of the characters and did not care what happend to them. Save your (...)4 dollars and pass (...)
75972,1,Disappointed walker,"The belt clip did not hold the recorder in place. I had to hold the recorder instead of weights as I walked. Sound was good, but the tape recorder stopped working after less than 30 days.Instructions on preset channels difficult to understand. My previous Panasonic recorder lasted eight years. What a disappointment this one is!"
75973,1,Panasonic Useability,"Sounds great, but!!! not user friendly. With batteries removed for recharging all pre-sets are lost. Since there is not a station scan, resetting the presets is cumbersom. Stations seem to stay tuned, but have not tested on the bicycle."
76063,1,Disappointed,"I had high hopes for an interesting and different film, but I was disappointed. It is different, but unfortunately boring. There are some aspects to the artwork that are unique (shadows have fun treatments) but thats about it. Otherwise, the artwork is a let down. The eyes on the main character (Lain) were a window to nothing and she really wasn't endearing. It was very slow and not a ""ghost story"". Maybe the next few layers get more excitng, but I'm sure the anime doesn't get better."
76160,1,spend the extra cash on a better quality TV,I've had this television for less than a month and I already have problems with the picture. I'm getting an annoying pinkish blotch of discoloration on the right side of my screen. be wary of buying this one. I myself should have taken the negative reviews into consideration. Do yourself a favor spend the extra cash on a better TV.
76167,1,Click away!!! Click Away!!!,"Crappy construction, cheap materials, and miserable warranty. I should have read the reviews but always think I won't get hit with the same crap someone else does. Please read and avoid this product! I bought this as a Christmas present, so it was bought in December but the snow didn't clear intil May. first use, the handles bent at the bolts becaus they are cheap thin metal, and the lips of the cart all cracked and broke beacuse it is cheap thin plastic. And becasue it only has a 90 day warranty now I can't get it replaced. Gotta love it. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT!!!!"
76176,1,"Apparently, Giants fans never get the same courtesy that others do.","They didn't put 60 minutes of the super bowl on there. The season review was good, but I didn't buy it for that. I wanted to watch the super bowl again, but apparently I can't. Don't buy this if you are expecting the game. Write a letter to the NFL demanding that we want to watch the game in its entirety."
76187,1,Stiff leather...,"It is a case that can carry your PDA and that is it. If you plan to put anything into the the little money sleeve, you probably will not be able to close it properly. I found the leather to be much too stiff and notice cracks after two days of light use. The only good thing I can say about this case is that it is small enough to fit into the rear pocket of loose fitting trousers. I am likely to continue shopping around for another case made of softer (higher quality) leather."
76207,1,Beautiful packaging/boring CD!,"Obviously a lot of money was spent on the packaging and design of the CD. It should have gone towards the recording.I was excited upon purchasing the CD, because the packaging wasfirst-rate. Unfortunately, the recording itself was not. The recording quality sounded as if it were recorded in a basement. Miss Jamison's vocals are mundane and lackluster. The CD's best cut is ""I Get Along Without You Very Well."" Here, the singer really gives an emotional great delivery along side a beautiful arrangement. If only the rest of the CD were this good. Maybe next time."
76215,1,Not Accurate,I know the terror that the Japanese had to through from reading other books and from what I learned in school and this book does not depict those terrors at all.
76250,1,Annoying Waste of Time,"Well, that was a waste of two hours! I am glad I only rented and didn't purchase this film.I had a dim memory seeing this film in a theater when it came out. Watching it now, I realize I must have walked out before it was half over. There is no way I would have sat through a such pointless film with no plot and not one interesting character."
76281,1,disrespectful and vulgar,"As a mother of a toddler, I really love reading books about motherhood. This book was a huge disappointment. Perhaps Lamott wants to be witty, but her voice is that of a whiny adolescent who thinks mainly about herself. Ridden with issues and vulgar language, she makes a mockery of those who take motherhood seriously. She has issues with men, with Republicans, with the world, it seems, as she describes her first year with her son. I could not understand her choice of vulgar words when describing her baby. She seems to have tremendous support from her family, friends, and church community, yet she never seems to revel in what she has been given. Perhaps in raising her child, she will receive some ""operating instructions"" that could truly enrich her life."
76289,1,Horrible,I know Led Zeppelin rocks and I was trying toget into them so I bought this CD. It is horrible!! There are like 2 good songs the rest of it is all slow and lame!!
76307,1,Barely works,"I purchased this to replace a remote that was only working about 50% of the time. This one is no better. If it does work, it's only when I'm standing at the door, and even that close it's a 50/50 shot of it not working.Waste of money, it is not any better than the remote I was replacing, except the buttons are not as worn down."
76313,1,exchange,I purchased a DVD from this vendor and it would not play in my panasonic player. He would not take it back. I informed him about the review I would give him and he changed his mind. He said he would pay postage back but didn't. I would not buy anything from him again.
76369,1,why did i let myself get dragged back in!?,"so you think i would have learned from my bad run in with season 1 but i was baited with an FMA boxed set from japan. so one of my friends sits me down and i endured the repetitive action, the mind numbingly bad monsters, the grating voices and a charachter so gay that we must all fear him. oh yeah, did i mention that sailor moon rarely wins her own fightssayonara, until i get tricked into another season(yeah right)-cya space cowboy"
76383,1,"Shut up, TLC!","TLC are not merely awful, I would consider it sacrilegious to say anything less than they are godawful. I am completley serious."
76418,1,Did not work on white bugs!,Smells peppery but did not do anything to the white little bugs on my plants.
76465,1,zone alarm fails again,"today ZoneAlarm renew failed for 18 tries , ZA refuses to have phone support the ultimate in tech service abdication. Za also failed to run once downloaded and can not find a manger or tech person to bother to address. the issue . They actually would like to charge us to answer tech questions even though they know they are having server failures.This once responsive comapany has joined the Big Oil Enron ranks in refusing to address customer needs."
76473,1,Vacuous,"This book is chapter after chapter of ...""we sailed here...we sailed there..."" with too much pay-off to friends being mentioned, and too little insight, reflection, facts, knowledge, or wisdom. Many, many better cruising books out there. Skip this one."
76478,1,brushes overpriced and don't last,The head is OK but the brushes are overpriced and they are crappily made and designed and don't last.
76493,1,Lost opportunity,This was the most disappoint DVD I ever see. Who's the responsable for this crazy edition??? They cut all the songs with interviews. Unbelievable! Someday they will release this show WITHOUT the INTERVIEWS?? I rope so...
76516,1,can't find parts,"i own this vacuum, the vacuum it's self is not bad, but you can not find anybody that will service them or can get any parts. i also have fantom fury same thing ,no one want's to even talk about them. in the begining i thought this was a great vacuum, so i bought my daughter one . both power nozzles broke,and searched everywhere and can't find one. can someone hepl me?"
76552,1,DON'T BUY THIS!,"This product is over-priced, shoddy quality, and if you don't like it you can't get a full refund. I was disappointed with the cheap plastic skeleton, the music box that twangs awkwardly and only lasts a couple minutes, and the fabric that does nothing for my baby except match her bedding. Now that I want to return it I learn that they won't refund the $14 shipping & handling that I originally paid, AND I AM SUPPOSED TO PAY FOR IT TO GET SHIPPED BACK TO THEM. So now I am still out $14 of the $50 I paid for this thing, I have to pay to send it back to them, and I still don't have a mobile for my baby's crib. What a racket!I am SO sorry I bought this thing and now I'm out $20, the lost time of dealing with all this, and nothing to show for it."
76638,1,does not work,"I bought this as a ""just in case"" and just opened it but the printer does not recognize the ink tank. Will not buy again."
76707,1,Could Have Been Good,"The story in this book is a good one, but it is written in such a stilted and stiff way of writing that it turns out to be just plain boring. Perhaps the author should find something else to do besides writing books."
76722,1,Very disappointing!,"I loved Trisha Todd's performance in ""Claire of the Moon"" but I found this book to be very disappointing. If you are looking for insight into the making of ""Claire of the Moon"" don't look here, there is very little, and nothing worthwhile. I found Trisha Todd's writing style meandering and completly without focus. The parrallels she draws between her ""drive"" to Iowa and her self-realization are obvious after page 2, by page 100 it is ridiculous. Her relationship with Annie seemed self-absorbed at best. I had to wonder what the pull was that kept the two of them together. By the time I finished the book I had no respect for Trisha or for Annie. I had to give this book one star because I did finish the book, but only because it is less than 200 pages."
76780,1,If you like lies and distorted truths you'll like this!,Only the brainwashed liberal left could watch this movie or F 9-11 and not see the glaring factual discrepancies and distorted half truths present in both films!Major journalists from both sides and the 9-11 commission itself have made a liar out of Michael Moore's assertions and the same is true for this piece of election time propaganda!Let's hope the mental midgets of the left spend their money on this film and not give it to their equally distorted candidates.
76792,1,Not That Good,"This CD is not very good. Bless the martyr and kiss the child was better, and O God the aftermath was better than all of them. This cd seems very muffled and his voice is not that great. The CD seems rushed, and just isn't Norma Jean at all. I hope their next CD is better."
76824,1,Awful,"Never mind the insane theology; as a novel this is absolutely dreadful. The characters are as three-dimensional as a carbon nanotube, the plot is outlandish and bears no relation to reality - Israel salvages six years' worth of fuel from crashed Russian aircraft which have already been described as crashing in flames? Oh really? - and the quality of research is embarrassing. I lost any remaining respect for the authors (which by that point was already low) when the intrepid journalist's Scotland Yard contact started talking about his boss the captain. No British police force has, or ever had, the rank of Captain, and it would have taken all of five minutes to find that out. Well, if the authors couldn't even be bothered to do that level of basic research, I'm not going to bother reading any more of their books."
76865,1,"Great, hearty fiction","Is this supposed to scare people to Jesus? Or just put them into stitches from laughing so hard?? Anyone who believes this stuff needs to have their head examined.Instead of this drivel, I recommend something that will genuinely challenge you: The Age of Reason by Thomas Paine, a hero of the American Revolution."
76941,1,File format problems,"This product is only capable to format a hard drive in FAT32 format. This is neither the standard for the PC nor the Mac. If you have a pure PC or Mac network, I advise getting a NAS that uses the appropriate format.The FAT32 format only makes sense if you use it as a cross-platform NAS. But even then it is pretty poor, as it requires tight rules for file names. I constantly ran into problems where back-ups got interrupted due to incorrect file names (too long, wrong characters).I decided to send the product back and try my luck with a different one."
77165,1,THIS MOVIE SUCKS!!!,"Oh my God, this is one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Low-budget vampire hunters who don't even use half the weapons portrayed on the cover. The vampire-killing scenes suck, as when a vampire is staked, lightning comes out of the body. Skip over this one for sure."
77224,1,Disapointed in product and support,"The locking mechanism and adjustment is disapointing in actual use. The one plus is that it is quiet. Unfortunately, it became too quiet.At 13 months (one month out of warranty) the variable speed control failed after only about 1 hour of total run time. The repair at the local service center was $104. After several contacts and complaints, PC is unwilling to make any concession. With PC, Delta and Dewalt all owned by the same company, is this what we have to expect from American companies? Next purchase, (won't be PC) I will look for a manufacturer with a longer warranty. I guess I will have to buy all Japanese tools!"
77265,1,Only one side,"One side is nice. The other side is meant to be hidden, has all the protruded iron fittings etc. How do you find a place to set it up where one side will be hidden? This is a challenge. Thus 2 stars, as I would not repeat the purchase, and have not yet resolved usage for the unit received -- that is, where this could be hung that would be compatible with its major design flaw.IF this were two-sided, then I'd 5-star it, based on current sell price of a stained glass piece at $6, together with its stated spec of holding 30lb weight.Also, what makes me particularly sad that this is not displayable at both sides is the consideration that this would have looked especially lovely as a hanging mount for one of those stained glass animal flappers made by this company (BirdBrain)."
77272,1,Not Fully Assembled,"The description for this chest mentions in 2 places that its fully assembled but it's not. I received a box of boards that need to be assembled into a cedar chest. I wouldn't have ordered it if I'd known it had to be assembled. Also the color is a very red cherry color, much different than the picture."
77359,1,What happened to the bass?,"I have gone to see the Moody's three times in the last ten years, the first time with the full blown orchestra ala Red Rocks. I've always enjoyed their music and was excited to see the concert come out on CD. Then I listened to the CD and scratched my head, granted they never were a ""heavy"" group but John Lodge's bass lines were a foundation for their songs and it is missing in action. I tried cranking up the bass control but there's nothing there! What a disappointment! Did I just get a bad copy or is everybody else reviewing this album listening on a 2 inch speaker. I don't listen to it anymore because I find such pansy sonic quality irritating. Tiny Tim on the mixing board!"
77376,1,Don't buy this brand,"I've been taking 50 mg/day of prenenolone for over 11 years, as prescribed by my physician, because it was low in my blood tests. It has always helped. I've used maybe 4 or 5 different brands over the years, and never had a problem with it. However, in January '11, I bought the MRM brand off the shelf of a natural foods store (not from Amazon), and had severe adverse reactions to it. They started with cardiac arrhythmia, and over a few weeks progressed to severe heart/chest pain. When I stopped taking it, the symptoms subsided. I just hope I didn't cause permanent damage. Nothing else in my routine had changed, just the brand name of the pregnenolone. I called MRM to report this but they were absolutely indifferent. I definitely urge you to buy a different brand, especially at this strength. If I could give it zero stars, I would."
77422,1,I was tired of Michael Scott before he left ...,"... but now I wish devoutly for his return. I figured this might be a dicey, three-star season, the creators grinding their way to a new mean, but never imagined the show would veer so violently off course, that the writing staff would be infected with amnesia and that The Office would so quickly come to seem exhausted and struggling ... and so much like all the other crap on TV."
77448,1,A Disappointment,"The main problem with this novel is that there are no sympathetic characters. You should be rooting for the protagonist, but he's portrayed from the start as weak and indecisive. I did not like him, so watching his life unravel was of no particular import. Since that was a key factor to the plot, that's a serious flaw.The book is at least 100 pages too long. Any suspense that might have been built was dispersed by unnecessary scenes and descriptions.Katzenbach should invest in a thesarus so he can find synonyms for ""wondrous."""
77497,1,Not a good first Kakuro book . . .,"I bought this as my first Kakuro book and found it disappointing because it doesn't have graduated levels of difficulty. Nothing on the cover or on the inside text indicates it isn't appropriate for beginners, but only after I've done 20+ ""medium"" puzzles in other books, am I finding I'm ready for Gordon's book. I find the cells a little small, but the paper quality is good for erasing."
77521,1,3M Foaming Cleaner,"This product is a complete waste of money. I followed the instructions (spray, scrub with damp cloth, then wipe with dry cloth) and guess what? Both clothes were pristine clean after that. There was supposed to be dirt on the cloth transferred from the car fabric! Needless to say, the car fabric and carpet remained as dirty as they were before.I have used another product in the past, and that did the job well, you could see lots of dirt on the cloth you used to wipe. Too bad I cannot remember what the brand was :("
77545,1,Want to waste a few hours of your life?,"Want to waste a few hours of your life? Then here is the perfect way to do it. The Matrix is terrible, the Matrix Reloaded is even worst, and if you go to the theaters to see the third chapter in this series you should put yourself in jail. These are the worst movies I have ever seen. And if you have ever seen them you should inform the studio that produced them to destroy all the reels of film like i have done. Please done waste hours of you life like I did on these movies."
77561,1,Not the classics I was expecting...,"I grew up in the 70's watching ""whats new Mr. Magoo"" and had no idea ofthis 1960's saturday morning show. In 1984, my older brother had rentedVHS Mr. Magoo classic shorts from the 1940's through the 1950's. Theywere truly the best. I was hoping that this box set from the 60,s wouldhave some of these shorts at least as bonus video to show how Magooevolved. Anyway, I only laughed a few times and these cartoons weremade cheap. The original Waldo was more dimwitted in Those classicshorts. They were a little darker and were made more for adults. I havewatched the first three disk and will not watch anymore I, too, wasupset over the Cholly ""Charley"" voice change. I do, believe it or not,have this 1960's Mr. Magoo Board Game. It must have been reissued in1977 when ""Whats new Mr. Magoo was debuing. I bought it at K-mart andit has most all the character's from the 60's show. If you love any-thing Magoo, then buy this DVD set for your collection. If not, saveyour money."
77603,1,Not great,Tub was not great or even all that good. A little bit of water and the material was cool very quickly. Thought my daughter was going to catch a cold.
77630,1,Not all it's cracked up to be...,"I've had this monitor for almost a year and a half now, and I hate it. We also own an older Fisher-Price Lights and Sounds monitor, and it pales in comparison to that monitor. The Graco monitor's rechargeable battery, which is what allows it to be portable, never had a very long life, and now at not quite a year and a half old do not charge at all. The very instant I remove the monitor from its base, it's dead.Other complaints - it's not very loud. I have to crank it to it's max volume to feel like I'm really hearing anything, and even then it's not terribly loud. The lights are green and VERY bright at night. Annoyingly so. It's sound quality is only sub-par. Range is not very good. I have to place the monitor just so to avoid static on my monitor at this point.All in all, there are much better monitors out there!"
77724,1,"Practice What You Preach, Mr Schlesinger","This book is well written and underlines the dangers of a society in which the cement of society is so fractured that everyone feels entitled to act without regard to a social norm. However, Mr. Schlesinger is hardly the man to trust on such matters. His standards of proper behavior depend solely on one's political allegiance. He has argued on the one hand that a black man is not entitled to a seat on the Supreme Court because of allegations that the man made a dirty joke (never mind that his accuser had serious credibility problems). Then he turns around and defends Bill Clinton against (much more credible) allegations of rape by arguing that ""gentlemen always lie about sex."" The only problem with multiculturalism is its potential for creating a nation where no one can agree on what is right and what is wrong. Mr. Schlesinger, it seems, cannot even agree on such matters in his own mind."
77744,1,BORING BORING BORING,"I was expecting a lot more from this film. Depp's acting is very good and the story about authenticating the book written by the devil is quite interesting. Unfortunately the film is neither scary nor contains any action or suspense whatsoever. I was at least expecting an appearance from Lucifer himself but no, this film just drags and ends in a whimper."
77838,1,Pitiful,"I was extrenely disappointed with this book. Nothing actually happens! There isn't a tense moment in the whole book. My weekly trip to the grocery store holds more drama. Its all talk, talk, talk, think, think, think, feelings, feelings, feelings. I think Clancy was going for emotional drama, but its hollow and unconvincing."
77841,1,Still a disappointment,"Right after I knew Clancy ""produced"" another Jack Ryan book. I really hoped it would be somehthing different from the disastrous The Bear and The Dragon. However, he failed me again. Tom Clancy seems to lose his edge forever."
77850,1,Short Story Masquerades as Novel,"Worst Clancy book by far. I used to like Jack Ryan, but Clancy has turned his once strong character into an ever-whining, sniveling wuss. The book has steered away from action and become a vehicle for Clancy to preach about every ill that ever bothered him. If you skip this one, you won't miss a thing. This may very well be the last Clancy book I ever buy. I will definitely read the reviews before committing to another Clancy novel."
77869,1,Not his best,"Long time Clancy fan. Have read everything including his non-fiction works. Just finished Red Rabbit and found it very slow and boring. As many have said before, one would not know it was a Clancy work if his name and picture weren't on the cover. It seems Mr. Clancy has sold out his fans, for quick rewards."
77900,1,Strictly Middlebrow Material,"The NPR plug belied this trite piece of feminist fluff. The premise is cute, but the book writes itself. The authors' tales are commonplace, and the insipidity of their stories is passed off as poignancy. This book is destined for the 5 cent pile in many a garage sale."
77993,1,Low rating for the navigation,"Sesame Street has great content, but I am frustrated with the navigation issues (they are the same for many of the Sesame Street DVDs -- read reviews). You are forced to sit through commericals for Sesame Street, you can't fast forward or jump to the main menu. My toddler loses interest while I have to wait until the nav shows up to press the play button. Best to start the DVD and then wander back when you want to see it. A shame they messed it up -- the best kids DVDs go right to the menu."
78016,1,Soporific,"What's come over our beloved Latin rocker girls? Narcolepsy? First, Andrea Echeverri's draggy latest (eponymous) album, and now this dreary thing from Shakira? Remember when they used to excite us, inspire us, rock our world, with albums like ""Pipa de la Paz"" and ""Pies Descalzos""? Those days are gone, it seems. Don't buy this album unless you are having trouble getting to sleep."
78044,1,Money Mel and His Big Money Movie,"First, the guy who ordered this thinking it was the ""Passion"" movie, you're an idiot. You got what you deserved for not paying attention.This interview is a waste of time, Gibson is just promoting himself and I don't belive a word of his personal religous dogma. If anyone thinks Mel made 'The Passion' for any reason other than to make himelf richer, then you are a fool. If his inspiration was to spread ""the word"", why weren't the profits given to his beloved Catholic church? The money went in Mel's pockets and if you paid your hard earned dollars to see it you're fool, regardless of the quality of the story or your religious beelifs. Not one cent went to any religous entity of any kind. Except Mel's chruch of course. Did you know Mel started his own chruch? With private membership? I guess he decided not to tell you that part. He's a money grubbing egomanic and if you buy into his crap then more fool you."
78103,1,Robbed,The positive reviews are schills for the author.I got duped. I can get much better information on the net.What a waste the book states the obvious and the illustrations yikes.
78144,1,Does not have video input!,"This product says that it has video input, however it does not! I even called initial and they said it does not. If you dont need it for video input, then it's a good product."
78187,1,It's as bad as they say,"I've heard nothing but bad things about this movie and everyone was pretty much right. But I gave the movie a chance anyway. It wasn't a terrible movie. It just seemed incredibly cheap and ""made for TV"" material. The movie suffers from a terrible director, screen writer, and a few bad actors. The special effects were also ultra cheap looking. The plot is generic, but it could be a good movie with the right people making it. Hopefully the next one will have more money put into it and they will get rid of all the bums that made this movie so bad."
78201,1,Gah! Bring back Buffy!,"I finally caved and watched this movie to try to understand it's prominence in pop-culture.13 year old girls are entitled to neurotic fantasies--they're 13!--and this movie seems to hit every bad news, sublimated, masochistic, narcissistic beat. This movie is an understandable craze for tween girls thoroughly f****d up by puberty and culture . . . The fact that this movie has such a large 'adult' female audience is REALLY disturbing. I think even less of some of my co-workers than I did before.Me? I'm a 43 year old woman and I'll stick with Buffy reruns for my vampire entertainment, thanks just the same."
78203,1,if I could give zero stars I would.,"The disc arrived broken. There really is no additional notes necessary. The disc was broken, it did not work, therefore it was crap."
78221,1,Don't be fooled by the title,"Let me first say that in order to lose weight, you must burn calories. In order to burn calories you must sweat. You will NOT burn calories or sweat with this video. You will NOT lose weight. This is NOT an aerobic yoga tape. If you want to use yoga to lose weight, try Ashtanga yoga or Power yoga. Skip this tape. If you are an absolute beginner, then try Yoga Journal's Yoga for beginners. This tape is just taking advantage of the millions in hawking weight loss products to mostly women."
78262,1,Good if you don't have any Speakers,"I bought these speakers to use with my Toshiba Satelite 2805-s402 Laptop. Unfortunately, i found that these speakers were not a significant improvement over my laptop speakers.They are very small, and they snap together handily, making them great for traveling, but i would only buy them for use with a discman, mp3 player, or something similar that has no speaker function."
78357,1,Fake Flavoring,"The flavoring of this coffee is very ""fake"" - it's ok if you tend to like the artificially-flavored syrups used in coffee, or if you like the typical flavored coffees. It's not for me - I want a subtle real flavor and a strong coffee. This one doesn't do it. Fool's pumpkin spice is a better bet for a decaf pumpkin spice."
78392,1,"Review of ""The Lost Plates of Wilford Eng"" by Thomas Orton","It is ironic. Some books have great themes but get written about with little substance. Others are written with great beauty and poetry but have nothing to say.This book is of the former.Wilford Eng was a wonderful photographer. Of this, there can be no doubt. However, Orton seems to be playing upon the Eng unknowns or created unknowns so he can have something to make up for his lack of imagination. Otherwise, why would he pack his book with erotic sex and the like? If it is not sex that he is writing about then he digs up betrayal at every other dark corner of his almost literature of third rate porn.Now, all this may be excused if we, the reader comes away with a better understanding of himself, circumstance and philosophy. Don't hold your breath as you will not. The only reason for holding your breath is to stop the bad smell of a rotten novel and time wasted reading it."
78427,1,what a waste of money,"When i first listen to ""Born To Try"" my heart told me to buy her CD. I Buy it and at first i found it interesting. But after hear it for a second time, i found that almost all of the song had a same tune and melody. It became boring after you kept listen to it. the only good song in this CD is ""Innocent Eyes"". I wonder how australian can said that this CD is more good than Kylie ""BL""."
78529,1,SHUT UP,"I can post my own opinions. You are a BRATZ slave, that's 4 sure! Why don't you kiss and marry BRATZ you B***h."
78537,1,Truly Awful,"Movies like this really showcase how terrible the horror genre is nowadays. First of all, the plot is a joke and just an excuse for a continual series of cheap ""BOO!"" scares (which don't even frighten). The acting is also abysmal and, truth be told, the entire film is about as scary as a ballpoint pen.There is a slight redeeming factor in that the special effects are decent, but really, special effects are just icing on the cake for me when it comes to movies; I prefer substance over style, and this movie is utterly lacking in any substance whatsoever.Let us pray for the revival of the horror genre and the destruction of snooze-inducing garbage like this. With films like Freddy vs. Jason and Cabin Fever in theaters, perhaps there is hope. Perhaps."
78541,1,Buy a Roxy Music album instead,"I bought this book on the strength of a review I saw previously by Tom Robinson, and out of a respect for Eno's work from the 70's (Roxy Music, with Robert Fripp etc.).Boy, do I wish I had bought something else.Brian Eno appears to be on an endless circuit consisting of mutual back-slapping with other musicians / artists in the studio, promoting obscure art installations, attending dinner parties at which the conversation seems ludicrously intellectual (don't these people ever get drunk ?), carrying on great rambling e-mail conversations which seem to be as much about letting the reader know what long words he's learnt recently as they might be about communicating any meaningful message.I just found the whole thing rather repetitive and dull after a very short space of time. I did persevere, but found the whole thing disappearing up its own back passage with its own sense of self-importance.Ladies and Gentlemen: The emperor isn't wearing any clothes.Avoid at all costs."
78551,1,"He tenido problemas con el Harware, nunca lo pude usar desde que lo compre// I had problems with the hardware. I never used sinc","Hola, desde que compre esta pieza para usarla en la maquina de bordar, nunca la he podido utilizar para copiar imagenes, solo he usado una unidad USB que ha funcionado bien.Hello, since I bought this piece for use in the embroidery machine, I've never been able to use to copy pictures, only I used a USB drive that has worked well."
78579,1,Like an echo - A weaker version of the original stuff,"It's a sad comment on the state of the music scene today that this is one of the best albums of the year, which it is. There are a couple of catchy tunes, but some dull instrumentation and very lame lyrics."
78597,1,Not as good as original version,"This one contains four tracks: ""If God Would Send His Angels"" [single version]. This one is not as good as the version on 'Pop' - the lyrics are cut, and the arrangement is a bit less daring (interesting) than the original. ""Slow Dancing"" [with Willie Nelson]. Although originally written for Willie Nelson, the attempt to duet with the famous country singer (as they did quite successfully on 1993's ""The Wanderer"" with Johnny Cash) is clearly inferior to the all-acoustic version of this song can be found on the ""Stay"" single. ""Two Shots of Happy, One Shot of Sad."" Originally written for Frank Sinatra, this is not one of U2's strongest b-sides. ""Sunday Bloody Sunday"" [live]. This version of this song (with Edge alone on vocal and guitar) is the sole reason why the CD-single is a must for any hardcore U2 fan."
78650,1,"Stop with the so called, ""Inspirational Stuff""","Not only outdated, this book is impracticable, condescending, and pedantic. Unless you need inspiration, spirituality, and out-dated advice, I would suggest you spend your money on more practical writing guides. Just my opinion...<as she trades her edition into the booktrader....> Good luck, all!"
78661,1,Two good songs.,"The two stars are for ""who are you"" and ""Twist of the light"" the rest of the album is not that great in my opinion."
78803,1,It should be cheap because it's made cheap.,I bought this to protect my phone and it only lasted about a week. After only normal wear and tear the cheap thin plastic was covered in cracks and started breaking apart. It was never even dropped. Finally I just took it off. Wouldn't recommend it...
78822,1,defective,"It was defective in that when I opened the lid, the back attachment was totally unattached from the base. It seemed to be poorly assembled."
78832,1,good research but hard to read,I found this book very difficult to sit and read. It seems to be a great reference book but the style is dull and I end up taking a nap after I read it. It is good to have by your nightstand.
78923,1,not permanent results but slow growth..,"it slows the growth down for1 becasue you epilate the hair from th root, so it takes just a ""little"" time to grow back and this spray adds a ""little"" more time to grow back, i have been using this for over a year now and i see nothing permanent for sure!!!!!"
78946,1,Even good movie stars do movies for the money,"If the lead actors were no-names, I'd be more forgiving. But with big name stars, big directors, big promotion, one expects more.This movie is a complete gypt -- cheat, scam, fake-out, ... using big names to lure you into a really badly written, produced and acted movie. They didn't even bother to keep the scale credible. Big aliens when they're threatening the stars, tiny little spacecraft that the aliens can't even fit into, to save on prop costs. There are too many more inconsistencies to cite here.The plot is really stupid and derivative of the ""Aliens"" saga.Bad, bad, bad. Don't waste your money and time."
78989,1,no good,"This was a replacement they sent for 3 other replacements.When inverted it grinds one teaspoon of pepper then stops.I called to ask if it's supposed to be a measured dose?""no"".The only time it did a great job was when it accidentally got knocked off the table:I traced a whining noise to a chair...the pepper mill was upside down and the chair was full of pepper...LOTS and LOTS of pepper."
79001,1,Worst Transfer of All Time,"I was very anxious to buy this DVD cause Bruce Lee was one of my childhood heroes, but the image and sound quality is so bad that I might as well just use it for a coaster. It's like watching one of those old 8mm films.I hope that the owners of the film get smart and restore it. I'll be willing to buy it again if it was cleaned up."
79031,1,Ice Tea and Roses,"I totally agree with Nancy Wiseman. I couldn't believe what I was reading - so many words spelled incorrectly and words that were obviously the wrong words. After plowing through it, I found there was no ending! I thought pages had been torn out. Then I looked for a page that told when Book 2 would be coming out. Nothing. Joan Hanover"
79069,1,Terrible Quality Photo,"Using on a Nikon D3S. I'm a Hoya user and took a chance on the Nikon thinking - it's a Nikon, it must be better!. Wrong. Terrible photographs, no clarity, loss of focus, over saturation of colors. I'll never use this again. Do yourself a favor, spend the money, stick with Hoya."
79123,1,it's a toy,"Bostitch does not have a customer review section, that should tell you a lot. The compressor comes with a 1 year warranty. Mine quit just after a year with very light usage. I tore it apart. The 1.3HP motor should not have a ratting of more than 1/8 HP, no heat dissipation, very little fan cooling and then only when running. Just as it needs the most cooling when finishing a compress cycle the fan cooling quits. The motor has PLASTIC bushings! The Max.ambient operating temp. is 94'F. The over temp protection is very cheap and unreliable, mine took over 3 days to reset! The motor has just barely enough power to build enough pressure to shut the motor off from the pressure switch. The diaphragm pump is undersized as well, the last 10 pounds of pressure takes about as long to build as the initial 115 pounds. SAVE YOUR MONEY, this is a way under-designed product, not worth the money at any price."
79283,1,Buyer beware.,"This bulb is not even close to the brightness level of a standard C7 night light bulb. Also the bulb ""flickers"" constantly, instead of being steadly on which drives me crazy. I took a gamble in the hopes that this would be a good bulb but no such luck. I really wish the LED light revolution would happen already."
79319,1,Careful,I would just say be very careful with this bike. Growing up on Schwinn I loved the product in the late 90's and owned a full suspension Homegrown. For those out to get a great deal this is the bike for you. Just don't expect it to last much more than 500miles. Now if you are serious about riding that will be about 2 weeks. You do get what you pay for and the problem you are going to run into is obsolete chain store parts. There is a reason a good road bike costs upwards of 3k. I didn't even think they made a 7 speed bicycle anymore. I know just this year I had a very hard hard time finding an 8 speed cassette replacement. I don't work for a shop but when I saw this pop up on daily deals I just has to say buyer beware. I would be afraid to ride this even if it was assembled at a good bike shop.
79375,1,Get A LIFE LISTEN TO REAL METAL !,How can a person like slipknot or any nu metal band and still have the nerve to call themselves metalheads !!! It is because nu metal and hardcore music that power metal is not as popular as it should be !!! They are not metal they sound like morons !!
79383,1,What a waste of film and my time!,"I just wasted almost 2 hours of my life watching this useless drivel. Poor acting, plot, etc. If you like this genre, do yourself a favor and see 'Alpha Dog' instead- it's hot and this is not."
79409,1,Someone please force this woman to get some perspective,"I think its very relevant that this memoir is almost as long as her fathers complete published works. I read this book from the perspective of a man fascinated by J.D's supreme talent and found that his daughter had absolutely none of it. The continuous and irritating drip feed of hackneyed adjectives in every paragraph makes you want to scream. Her terribly wishy washy world view, where she spends 2 paragraphs explaining what makes a person who they are then damns them for their faults is infuriating. This book is vastly dominated by dwelling in the tedious details of childhood and avoiding any real description of her fathers motivations and drives.. She really has no talent for this lark at all...."
79420,1,What a waste...,"We actually love this genre, and the previews looked amazing, so our expectations were high. I mean, considering the advances in CGI, the great cast, and the current trend to add emotional DEPTH to monsters, it should have been MUCH better than this eye-rolling slog.Without much of a plot, the film just started cranking out gratuitous GORE, which was not unexpected, but it was SO over the top, it became comical. The look of the film was beautifully dark, yes, and the CGI was fine, but that didn't redeem this hot mess.The consensus in our group was that it wasn't worth the price of admission, and maybe the worst movie some had seen in years. I usually check reviews before going to a movie, but got sucked into this with assumptions... (I REALLY expected more from a film with Anthony Hopkins. He must be so embarrassed.) Never again."
79426,1,"a typical ""greatest hits"" blunder","Are you kidding me? Four songs from Rattle and Hum? Yeah, that album was deserving(?). First of all, U2's music should be divided into four categories: (1) pre-Joshua tree--all of which kicked ass; (2) Joshua tree--probably their best album, but transitional in its sound; (3) Rattle and Suck--no explanation, assorted good songs and some crap; (4) and everything since--""hey guys, check out this synthesizer and drum machine I found . . ."" All albums up to and including Unforgettable Fire deserve their own, more comprehensive greatest hits album. By the way, kids who grew up on ""new U2"" know nothing."
79474,1,Pretty Weak,"This is not a cool movie. It was made for, apparently, six hundred dollars, and it is neither titillating, action-packed, or cool. Don't buy this, unless you love regret."
79506,1,"TOO heavy,handle uncomfortable","The iron is very heavy and handle uncomfortable, do not like the fact that I have to unplug the iron everytime I finish using it.I use for quilting and am always ironing, so hence once you do shut it off, it doesn't go off, have to unplug it. If I put water in it, then it's almost impossible to handle.And steam just doesn't work as well as should.With blue window almost impossible to see how much water is really in it."
79521,1,Very vicious films! Outdated and racial by the white!!,"Technically, John Ford was one of the greatest film makers. With the racist, John Wayne, he made many vicious films(more precisely, films by the view point of the winner based on racism). Moreover, I prefer Henry Fonda to John Wayne for John Ford films because Henry Fonda was a fine actor, and John Wayne never showed good performance(Probably he could shout). If you like the westerns, see 'McCabe and Mrs Miller' directed by the late Altman. I don't want to see John Wayne on the film media any more for a better society."
79565,1,not what I expected,I bought this as a gift for a person who enjoys dark chocolate. I thought it would be a gift that she could enjoy as candy. Probably my mistake. The bars are very rich and could be used for baking but not as candy. My error but still not what I expected when I ordered them.
79601,1,ruined by questar,this was a wonderful mini-series totally ruined by the company who released the video don't be fooled it's not a complete mini-series at all it suddenly just stops dead and your left having to read the book to find out how it all ends ...don't bother buying itit's a rip-offI welcome any comments anybody else out there might have
79638,1,Have a laxative,"Honestly, this book made me nauseous. While I enjoyed the first three Shannara books, especially the second, this entire new series really turned me off to Terry Brooks in general, as it seems he was milking this for more than he`s worth. All four books could`ve been condensed into a novella; though it probably would have been no pleasanter, at least it would have been mercifully quick. As it is, I slogged through nearly 1000 pages worth of Four Lands mud, blood, and monsters, with dialogue taking a permanent back seat. There was one cheerful moment in the entire series, and that was in the first two pages. The characters were Brook`s typical archetypes with all the verve sucked out of them, and none of them has so much as a smattering of a sense of humor. Basically, this book is for people who feel like a good depression would be right up their alley, or for students who want to work up a headache so they can miss school the next day"
79654,1,Quality is a joke,"I recently ""upgraded"" from a 2.8 gig set to this 5.8 ghz set. I thought it would be less interference because of my wireless router which operates at 2.8gighz. Well these two phones are the worst wireless phones I've ever used. I've lost count how many times someone will call only to get my answering machine because my handset can't find the base! I can be 5 inches from the base and the handset still can't find it. It does this randomly...also everyone complains that they can't hear me very well or there is a lot of static. I never had these complains with my old phone.I don't think I'll ever buy uniden phones again."
79700,1,hammerseries,save your cash.this is a letdown collection.don't misunderstand:that's not to say that hammer studios failed to live up to their usual great standards concerning the horror movie genre;it's the powers-that- be that determine which movies go into a particular collection.no studio makes great movies with every attempt;hammer's no exception to this rule.there's really only one good movie in this collection(evil of frankenstein):brides of dracula is also passable.everything else...junk.
79732,1,Blah,Crap. Only nice thing was the hotness of the men. Acting was terrible and the plot was hard to understand. Also super boring.
79750,1,Stupid.,Really wished I spent my money on another movie. Bad acting. Bad plot. One of those movies where you wished you had bought a good book for your Kindle.
79797,1,Good...at first,"I bought this product when it first came out and it worked but never had a clear sound. There was always static on every available station and always had to be touching it. Currently, I have not used it in months because it won't pick up ANY station at all. Very disappointed. I am in the process of purchasing a different product."
79803,1,Not as good as I expected,"I read the bad reviews and thought, ""Oh it'll work for me,"" but no. I got all kinds of static when I used the itrip (and I was in the mountains!). You have to hold it real close to the stereo and find the perfect radio station, and it still doesn't come through clearly. It's just annoying. I would suggest other alternatives to this product, for example: you can buy a cord that plugs into an auxiliary input on your stereo (my friend even has one of these on his car stereo). Or you can buy a different kind of radio transmitter that is much stronger than the itrip. There is a radio transmitter at radio shak that is better (though it requires batteries). Please don't spend your money on this."
79848,1,Product not intended for sale in the USA,I wish I had read the product reviews before purchasing this DVD. It won't play on my player because it was manufactured for distribution in the UK. At least it was cheap-- now I know why :(
79909,1,if i wanted a blockbuster rental i would have went to blockbuster.,Its would be fine if the bluray didnt say blockbuster rental written across it. im not mad about the fact that this company sent it to me im mad that they didnt put it in the description. i think i might send this back.
79966,1,hated it.,"I do not know why but i justed hated this book, i could not even finish it so i could not tell you what its about."
79979,1,Best song missing...poopie,The one song I wanted is not on this disc....the best song in the whole movie....the tango song ....that really stinks
79985,1,Why can't there be 0 stars?,"I just switched over to the Mac after years on the PC. I own Quicken 2006 for Home and Business for the PC. I also happened to notice that Quicken for the Mac came preinstalled and I thought I would try it out. So I have the product, it was free, and it is terrible.Quite frankly it DOES NOT WORK. It crashes, refuses to quit unless you Force Quit, and most banks do not support it. That's because Intuit cripples the support and forces banks to buy a ""Mac"" version of QFX. There is no reason why they need to do this and if you look around the Internet you can find scripts that convert PC QFX files to Mac QFX files.If you need Quicken, use Boot Camp or Parallels to run Windows and buy the Windows version of Quicken. That software actually works.Run away."
80006,1,What has happened to Patricia Cornwell?,"This book was horrible. I have enjoyed all of her previous books, but this one was boring and hard to read. I hope her next book is better, though I can't see how it could be any worse"
80040,1,Redundant,"If you're interested in buying this book, you've probably already read it. The first half of it was called Godel, Escher, Bach, and the second half was called The Mind's I. But the amusing dialogues of GEB and the influential essays of The Mind's I are missing, leaving nothing but a dry exposition of Hofstadter's worldview that you probably already know.I suppose the book would go over better with someone who was new to Hofstadter, but then such a person would still be better off reading Godel, Escher, Bach and making most of this book redundant in the process."
80056,1,REview of Raggedy Ann Book,I was very disappointed in the book. It had been wet at some point. The pages were rippled.
80148,1,BORING,"I'm not sure who this book was written for, but I only managed about 30 pages before giving up. I couldn't follow it. My only questions? How on earth did it get published?"
80233,1,Not the unit shown in picture,The actual unit received is not the unit shown in the picture but an older model. The unit looks nicely made and seems to work well at a good price.But I find the practice of shipping a unit different from the one shown both deceptive and unethical.
80243,1,Omron HEM 780 Auto Blood Press Monitor,The monitor keeps giving me error message. I had to turn it off and re-start again. Sometimes I had to re-start (stop/start) twice to avoid the error message.
80269,1,Not worth the read,"After seeing the new released 1999 movie The Haunting I decided to buy the book. The book was nothing like the movie at all. Totally very boring, large vocabulary of words and totally meaningless to people who want to be entertained with what they read instead of trying to figure out what is written. Halfway through the book I decided to just finish it to see how it ended and the book had nothing to do with how the movie was written. So just skip this book and see the movie. The special effects in the movie outweigh the words on paper."
80277,1,Absolute Waste of Money!!,This book is has little to nothing to do with the city of Athens. It's a complete waste of money!
80309,1,Faith on her way out maybe?,"C'mon Faith.... You've done much better than this. Just because you have a famous name won't sell albums.... Good reviews & good music sells albums. I think this is definitely your worst work to date. Sorry, but I felt ripped-off even though I got it for free...."
80344,1,Hard to learn from...,"I had this book for an undergrad web based distance learning course. We covered up to chapter 9.This book is very hard to learn from. It seems to concentrate on explaining a lot of theory, but htere are not enough illustrations or graphs to be able to follow the discussion.In addition,unfortunately, when you go to do the problems, very little in the discussion or the examples are helpful in figuring out what to do. The sections on probability were especially guilty in this regard.The use of symbology is also confusing. Theta and Theta hat are thrown in to material with no explanation of what theta is representing.The attached CD has some good interactive elements that were some help in understanding the material."
80397,1,TOTAL RIPOFF,"To anyone thinking that this collection might include newly remastered widescreen versions of the films, it DOES NOT. Instead, 20th Century Fox has assembled a shameless repackage of the original non-anamorphic discs for films 1 and 2. The transfers look like they were done during the infancy of standard def, which means quite lousy. They couldn't even include the recent Family Fun Edition of the first film (which is remastered). I didn't bother checking films 3 and 4 because it's obvious this is a cash grab for a surplus of the original discs, which have been collected before. The outside box doesn't even bother to tell you the specs of the films (probably anticipating a reaction like mine). Nothing new here except the packaging. Whatever department head gave the green light to this attrocity is in the wrong line of work."
80450,1,"God, I hate doing this","I reiterate my title: I hate doing this. Fact is I am very disappointed in this album, as was I with her last album. Maybe it's me, but I just don't get it. It seems like concept album after concept album here. The vocal melodies all sound very similar to each other and that of past albums, but yet don't grab hold of you as one would hope. Some of the songs are hard to even sit through due to over-emphatic tech beats and cloudy progression. I just didn't get that warm feeling of ""I can't wait to listen to this louder in my car"" feeling as I normally would get listening to her. Again I apologize I have seen Bjork in concert in Boston, I think she is gorgeous and brilliant, but I just can't recommend this album."
80535,1,Hits,"Unfortunately I had 16 of the 20 songs on other DVD's I own. I thought the selection of ""Greatest"" was far from the best. Moreover, the clarity of many of them were not up to the standard of the originals! Several were too dark, some of the colors were bad, and some were fuzzy. I might be a little prejudiced since I got only four new tunes, and if another similar album is produced it must have the contents available before purchasing. Surely I would not have bought it if I had known the selections."
80597,1,Interesting technology in this one but not paranormal,"Beautiful scenery but nothing paranormal in this one either. Just like my other two reviews, this is boring!! I would like to see this technology used with a real paranormal group not backyard ghost hunters. There is a definite connection with this group, cemetery's. It is interesting how the orbs only light up in front not all around like a self lighting orb should. I give this one two stars because of the interesting technology but nothing paranormal about this one either."
80633,1,More of the same,"The author has created an unmatched entry in the field of fantasy. He has created an alternative reality at a complete remove from what most of us call ""reality"", and it's so compelling that he has drawn large numbers of people into it, where they actually try to live. Quite an accomplishment."
80667,1,Thumbs Down on Hoover Duros,"I have had this vacuum for 2 years and I hate it. It is heavy, cumbersome, always tips over. A pain to change the bag the attchments etc. I do not mind vacuuming but this machine makes me miserable. I am in search of a better vacuum and cant wait to get rid of this one. My next one will not be a Hoover based on my experience!"
80698,1,Martha Quinn's Revenge,"This CD sounds like it is made up of leftover material that Diddn't make it on to the ""Moveing Pictures"" and ""Signals"" Albums.The First track ""Distant Early Warning"" is a good song but It sounds out of place on this record.Most of the songs sound like an 80s ""flashback."" ""the Enemy Within"" is another gem but thats about it.THis CD sounds like alot of Bands from the 80's.THe CD is Over produced and Over rated.Pick up ""2112"" ""Counterparts"" or ""Farwell to kings"" they are alot better than this."
80708,1,One problem after the next,"I got this printer bundled with the Kodak P880 camera and I love the camera, but the photos on this printer always come out with a dull, grayish look, like the color is washed out. I have had them developed elseware and the colors are beautiful.I had problems with it not recognizing that it has paper in it or saying it wasn't Kodak paper, when it was. I've had problems with it not knowing it was connected to the computer. Today, it decided to stop recognizing it's USB port, so I give up. I wish I hadn't bought all the stupid paper and color cartriges.Now I have to go through the ordeal of convincing my husband that I need yet another printer. *sigh*"
80709,1,EasyShare - Piece of JUNK!,"One of the worst products that I have ever owned. Poorly quality, unreliable.Printer software is bloated and slows down the computer at boot. Synching a camera with the computer is hit or miss. Often takes several iterations of plugging/unplugging the camera/dock. Printer paper won't feed properly - gets jammed every other picture and ends up wasting the color carteridge. All-in-all this is a piece of junk and I would not recommend it to anyone.Prints about 1 picture out of 10 successfully and even then the quality is not that great.Only significant use I've found for this is as an ugly paperweight."
80745,1,What a waste of time and money!,"If I wanted to watch a documentary on drugs, I would have stayed home and watched PBS. I was bored throughout the entire movie. There was no action, in fact the movie was so quiet you could here the projector going the whole time. I want to watch a movie for entertainment value, to escape reality. This movie is in no way deserving of any awards. Do not see this...!"
80748,1,"Well, I don't speak Spanish..","Unfortunately, I had seen the British TraffiK which was great. I suppose if I could understand the language the American Traffic might have been OK, but I couldn't really stay up with the subtitles. I think about 60 per cent was in Spanish. I need new glasses or a larger tv, or quick enough to hit the pause....Oh, well, the British film spoiled me so I'm a bit grouchy!"
80758,1,Didn't Work For Me,Easy enough to install with some adjustment but my 24 pound dog wiggled through in 30 seconds which defeats the purpose entirely.
80776,1,This is not a 12 inch bread knife.,"The product arrives in a plastic sleeve identifying it as a ""Deglon 12 - Inch Bread Knife, Black Wood Handle"".Inside is Deglon's packaging saying: ""Blade 8"", Stainless Steel""The blade is 8 inches. Including handle, it comes to 12 but that's not how you measure bread knives. We are returning this since it was falsely advertised."
80781,1,Case study in poor proofreading!,"After being appalled at the endless spelling errors and typographical mistakes in this book, I decided to look up the author, Ted Schwarz. He's a Cleveland resident who claims to have written over 100 books at the rate of 10 pages a day. No one should write 100 books in one lifetime. I would suggest that Schwarz spend a little less time writing, and a little more time proofreading. Lay some blame as well on Vivisphere Publishing, whoever they are.The problem here is that, if you want to know something about Doris Duke, you don't have a lot of decent choices. She may be the exemplary personification of the problems of enormous inherited wealth in the U.S. Her life deserves a scholarly and respectful biography. Maybe one day a skilled biographer and a competent publisher will bring it to us."
80798,1,"Feels good, breaks easily",I bought this to replace my plastic mighty-vac vacuum pump that was probably two decades old which finally broke its handle. I figured the metal construction would make it a solid product.And it seems to be holding up just fine now... now that I've fixed it!At the top of the handle is a small clip that attaches the handle to the rod. This clip popped off the second time I used it! Luckily I found it on the floor about ten feet away and was able to reinstall it.I ended up putting a quick tack weld over the clip to prevent it from popping off again and now it works great. I suppose a heavier duty clip may also do the job but being I use this several times a day as a professional tech I don't want to have to keep fixing it!If it doesn't hold up I'll just pay the extra money for a new mighty vac but I was very disappointed to see it break so quickly!
80873,1,Not so great,"The book is ok. If you are looking for a summary or just straight grammar, then this is the book for you. It does have some exercises; however, it is too short and does not give the reader enough practice or ability to play around with the language. Something that I feel, as a classical studies student, is a must to master the early stages of the language. I am most disapointed with the summary in the back of the book, because it is not organized well enough for the reader to use until they start to reach the end of the book.In conclusion, this is a good book only when combined with others."
80877,1,Sew Beautiful babie's and children's clothes,"When I first ordered this magazine I was told my subscription would start in 8 weeks so I bought magazines for the first 2 months. 8 weeks later I received 3 older issues, two of which I already owned. So in other words I paid for a year's subscription and only received 3 new magazines. This magazine is geared toward sewing old fashioned, heirloom type garments for babies and young children. It is not for the beginning sewing enthusiast. The techniques include smocking, madera and lots of lace. If this magazine was anything like the ""Martha's Sewing Room"" show it would be great. But alas, the old fashioned garments and patterns that only fit babies and young children are not enough to keep me as a subscriber. Also it is full of pictures of patterns that you have to pay for on Martha's website, a lot of advertisements for stuff you have to pay for, not enough stuff for you to make. Save your money and buy a different sewing magazine!"
80959,1,Not longlasting!,"I bought this mixer exactly 2 years ago. I loved it! The bowls are heavy but the mixer itself is not as heavy as the Kitchen Aid, which is what I was looking for. I've made cakes, cookies, yeast-type coffee cake. But today when I mixed the yeast with the flour and stuff, I turned it off to put the dough hooks in and it wouldn't turn on again. It just died in the middle of the process, so had to knead by hand. Not an easy task! I went all over town trying to find a similar item, but all they had was hand mixers and kitchen aids. My mother's and mother-in-laws lasted over 20 years. Don't know why they don't make product to last anymore. This one sure didn't."
80987,1,Waste of Money,"Typical of this author-a book full of his ""wisdom"". Please don't waste your money on this. It isn't worth sll the hype"
81047,1,That Don't Impress Me Much,"I beg you, if you are a country fan do not buy this album. It is pure blasphemy to the entire history of country music. And if you are a pop fan who's looking for the songs you heard on the radio, you won't find them here. Everything Shania puts out to pop radio has been remixed and altered endlessly. Her desperate attempts for crossover appeal are humiliating and pathetic."
81048,1,Contrived,"This CD is NOT country music. It is slick, contrived, manufactured, pop marketed to those people who THINK they like country music but don't. That it has been so hugely successful is one of the saddest commentaries on our culture here at the end of the 20th century."
81093,1,Not a happy person,I brought this used cd cause I wanted the two disk one and I go to open it when it came in the mail and it was the Come on over usa one that we got and then their was no disk and now the seller is not e-mail back! I want my money back! I'm very upset never buy anything used again.
81099,1,Ewwwwwwww,"This is cleary the worst Scorpions album ever made. Don't get me wrong, I love the Scorpions but the band is way off kilter during the making of this transistional album, instead of just going by pure instinct and feel. Don't buy this record if your a die hard Scorpions fan during the Blackout/Love at First Sting era. You will be very disapointed."
81141,1,crap,Came with not enough bolts! The bolts don't really work for what they are intended to do. Had to resort to using metal wire to attach it to my bike. My suggestion is to go to a bike shop for this job and have somebody fit the right rack to your bike. lesson learned.
81184,1,wwe Survivor Series Live Sunday November 23rd on pay per view,The past wwe Survivor Series pay per views have been pretty good but I'm wondering about this year's wwe Survivor Series pay per view because there hasan't been some good matches in the wwe and this year wwe Survivor Series is going to be in my area but I'm not going to go because of all the screaming and other stuff so with that being said my dad and I are going to order a pizza and order it on pay per view but I'm hoping that this years Survivor Series Pay per view will be better than all of the other Survivor Series Pay per view's I hope that a lot of you will find my review very helpful Take care and I wish you all a good rest of October please note that one star isn't my real rating because I haven't seen the card yet.
81250,1,Old Edition,"This is a book that teaches you directX 9b NOT 9c or 10. If you use the new 2005 Visual Studio the code may not compile, but with a few fixes it is still possible. The code on the CD is understandable if you read the chapter, but you need at least a good understanding of C++. So I recommend you look for a newer edition and get a book on beginning C++ as well."
81277,1,Boring tale by an oftentimes good author.,Undeveloped threads of ideas abound; poorly developed characters; written like a freshman English course project; extremely difficult to read: not because of the okay writing style but because it's impossible to care about what's going to happen next. Disappointing because Simak is capable of *such* better storytelling.
81332,1,not happy with it,"it would not play on my dvd player, so i can not watch it can you give some advice on how it will work please"
81366,1,Not Worth Owning,"This dvd like the triple h dvd set was a huge let down for me. I'm glad I didn't fork out $20 for this set, instead I watched a friends copy. If you want most if not all of the rock's promos featured on this set, UNBLURRED do yourself a favor and try and find the 2 disc edition of Just Bring It. I also recommend owning the older WWF dvd's ""Know Your Role"" and ""The People's Champ"" forget owning this one."
81395,1,never again,"did not work regardless of the instructions for use, this product dropped the ph level to dangerous low levels and killed 5 fish"
81429,1,Doesn't work,I opened up my new RCA CD Player after my Panasonic died (got several years out of that one) and hoping it'd be an improvement. IT SUCKED!!! THe sound quality was terrible and it skipped constantly (jumped to random tracks in the middle of songs). I changed the batteries a few times (even went from my usual nickel-metal hydride to some old fashioned alkaline) and no improvement. Don't waste your money. It's crap.
81481,1,cowboys49,"I'm so used to their Native American music, that this was a little too ""woo woo"" for me. I gave it to my friend who's a massage therapist. She liked it, but I didn't."
81496,1,Doesn't hold up,"I hadn't listened to this for years, but lately I've been getting out my old LP's and checking them out. I was surprised at how bland this recording is. ""Birdland"" is one perky tune, sure, but the rest sounds so generic. My wife said it reminded her of John Klemmer. The advent of Jaco Pastorius was the beginning of the end for this band. He was a truly gifted bassist, but his musical ideas were nothing more than run-of-the-mill. Once Wayne Shorter decided to spend the rest of his career coasting, Zawinul and Pastorius took the band into increasingly dull directions. ""Heavy Weather"" doesn't stand up over time."
81515,1,dangerous heating pad,"I sent this heating pad to my 75 year old sister in upper Michigan. I never saw the pad. I sent it direct. When I called her to check on it, she tearfully told me that it came with a warning that it had lead in the power cord, and that she should wash her hands if she touched it. A heating pad that you cannot touch? A Sunbeam heating pad? She was in tears. But I am outraged that this Chinese trash is now being sold under names like Sunbeam. Profit over people.She later sent me the instructions with the warning, so I saw it with my own eyes. Too bad previously reputable Sunbeam doesn't have higher standards. Too bad for us all."
81533,1,The Cat's Fancy,"I found the plot of this story to be very disappointing. The main character, Maggie, naivete while charming at first , grated after awhile. I prefer that the female lead character be more independent and self assured; particularly a feline. The author illustrates the realistic challenges a cat may face if suddenly they became human. But, most readers of fantasy romance novel are not looking for 'realities'. This takes away the magic and makes one think factually. Thus the rationalization by the other characters of Maggie's repeated disappearances seemed unrealistic and very far fetched.The writing was simplistic and the story line was not well developed. The ending seemed rushed and haphazard.Not a good read for me."
81535,1,NOT KARAOKE!!!,"This CD does not play in a standard Karaoke machine, there are no words. This should not be sold as a Karaoke CD. That is misleading."
81554,1,Great Music bad disk,"I bought this disk as a cheap backup to my SACD version but sadly, the pressing is, apparently, defective.The top track on this disk is garbled. No scratches just garbled recording as in a bad pressing. No visible defect but the same track won't play properly on any of my CD, SACD or DVD players."
81613,1,Hartz kills not only fleas but pets too,Read these two websites for very sad stories of how Hartz products have killed pets:http://www.hartzvictims.org/http://www.hartzkills.org/More sites to read to become informed:http://www.nrdc.org/health/effects/pets/execsum.asp
81622,1,This Movie was Awful!,"How can you people say this was a good movie. It is the worst version of Les Miserables that I have ever seen. I have read the book, seen the musical and watch two other movie versions other than this, this is by far the worst representation of Les Miserbles ever. Are this people supposed to be actors? Jean Gabin was a grumpy old man and would have done a better job as Ebenezer Scrooge than Jean Valjean. All of the actors were horrid the only one who was remotely torlerable was the bishop. Don't get this, you will be dissapointed."
81658,1,Do not buy this Camera!!,"We received this camera as a Christmas present last year, and we loved it at first. Loads of features and easy to use. However, the camera died after 6 hours of use. We took the camera into an authorized repair shop, and it has been there for the past 4 months!!! The RCA Customer service department is HORRIBLE!!...So now we have a camera sitting in a repair shop, and a manufacturer that won't return our calls or stand behind their product."
81745,1,"Works OK, but Poor Quality","Works OK, but as other reviewers have mentioned, the power switch is a POS. I can get it to work by holding the switch constantly, but for how long?"
81771,1,A Terrible Disappointment,"I saw Cars 2 in the theaters with my children, all of whom are 10 and under. We loved the first ""Cars"" film and have the PlayStation game for it. I really looked forward to the sequel and was badly disappointed. The plot was thin and gimmicky, the focus on Mater quickly became tiresome and while the animation was amazing, it was a difficult movie for children to follow. The box office figures don't show it, but Pixar laid an egg with this one.Not recommended."
81786,1,A Superficial Study,"Cross examination may be a lost art, but this booklet does little to help the reader find it. The chapters are mostly short, superficial pieces that are correct insofar as they go, but they do not go far enough. For example, the chapter on ""Tests for Credibility"" consists of a list of twelve ""tests"" covering a page and a half. Nowhere does it give any hint as to how to go about applying those tests. Ehrlich waxes most eloquent when he holds forth on the ""fallibilities"" of eyewitness testimony. It is almost as though Ehrlich hopes that someday a reader of his book will become a juror in a criminal case that Ehrlich is defending. For the best, most inexpensive practical advice on how to conduct a cross examination, read Francis Wellman's ""The Art of Cross Examination."""
81802,1,Dull,"Musically unimaginative & overwrought. I bought this CD based on an Amazon recommendation -- If you like NIN, then you'll like Skinny Puppy. Wrong."
81836,1,The Classic Italian Cookbook,"The book was new but so old the pages were yellow. I had bought several cookbooks to give to my granddaughter as a gift, this book was not gift quality. The recipes are good and easy to use."
81928,1,"Meat is fair, but a far cry from the original ""Bat""","I have had this album for a long while and it still confuses and irritates me. What Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman tried to do on this record is over-intensify the effect and update the sound of the original. Let's face it, there is no other album of his that can compare to 1977's ""Bat Out Of Hell"". The songs are long, perhaps too long, and the production goes overboard. ""Wasted Youth"" is a waste itself, meaningless and a very small cry for ""ROCK AND ROLL"", sounds like he was imitating a Jim Morrison-esque type of poem in a pointless opera. Fair."
81930,1,One Bad Book,"For a short book, fewer than 100 pages, it is one long, bad, boring read. Save yourself; don't read it if you don't have to."
81932,1,this movie has barely a Pulse....very faint...almost gone,"Pulse stars Madeleine Stowe (Unlawful Entry, Avenging Angelo), Norman Reedus (Blade 2, Gossip, Boondock Saints), Jonathan Rhys-Meyers (upcoming Elvis, Alexander, Velvet Goldmine), Mischa Barton (Tv's The O.C., Lost and Delirious) and Bijou Phillips (Bully, Black & White). Stowe and daughter Barton are on the road...they have a typical daughter/mother spat and Barton winds up being taken away by a group of people, led by bad boy Jonathan Rhys-Meyers and Stowe then goes on a hunt for her daughter. Along the way she encounters a strange towtruck man, played by Norman Reedus. So, Stowe goes off on a rampage to get her daughter back from her kidnappers. Not much pulse in this movie...its faint and can barely feel it. Some good direction, mixed in with a pyshco performance by Jonathan Rhys-Meyers keeps it at bay."
81935,1,You get what you pay,"I don't know how anybody can give a positive review for this product. While assembling this product, the rubber hinges actually broke while I was tightening the bolts (all 4 of them). Based on what I observed I am happy that they broke while assembling and not while I was driving. I don't think this is a safe product. The item was returned the day I received it."
81995,1,Lousy Merchandise,"Never cycled despite the claims of the manual. Even when set at the highest temp, still ran continuously (sigh). So kept it at a fixed 60 F and it ran for about 14 months, and then stopped working. Out of warranty, no service offered, no parts available, out of luck and out $200. Very disappointing and so not green. One star is being generous."
82010,1,It's just a game of chance-very dissapointing,"We purchased this game for our 11yr old son and set out to play it the day he opened it. My first observation was that this game is not made of high quality material. If you don't pay attention to your grip on the cards, you will surely bend them. The tokens are just cardboard. While playing, my 7yr old decided to join us. To give you an idea of how left up to chance this game is, at the end, I had 2 tokens, my 11yr old and husband had about equal amounts (something like 40) and my 7yr old had 3 less than them! With 10 more minutes of play he could have won the game - solely basing his answers on chance. In fact, my youngest was placing his 'fact' or 'crap' card on the table before the question was even asked and he STILL did well. The questions are way too obscure and at best you might win with a talent for reading faces as the questions are being asked. If you like Vegas and you're feeling lucky, you will like this game - it's all about luck."
82097,1,Immigrant slanders immigrants,"You can see Michelle Malkin at Fox News bashing Mexicans, Arabs and other minorities. Michelle is an immigrant herself, and she believes that there is a big difference between legal and illegal immigrants. Not one human is illegal on this world. America is build by immigrants and their children. If all illegal immigrants would leave the US, the economy would collaps.So what is Michelle's problem with illegal immigrants? This is a pychological phenomenon; once self legally inside these people are afraid to share with others. I wish her good luck. If you hate foreigners you should buy this book."
82107,1,FORMAT,"Why has this movie never been released in Widescreen format? I absolutely refuse to buy a movie in fullscreen format that was originally released in the theaters in widescreen. Let's face it folks, when a movie is viewed fullscreen a good part of the movie is missing. The exception to this is older movies that were actually realeased in theaters in this format. Other than that, it is a great comedy which I would love to own in it's original format."
82153,1,Very disappointing,"I grew up with Judy's books- she needs to stay with writing pre-pub books-""Tales of Fourth Grade Nothing"". I read it to and from the beach-as soon as I got home I threw it in the trash-not even wanting any of my friends to even borrow it. I was left very empty and felt I wasted my time reading it."
82173,1,Disappointing DVD fake,"Why are studios making DVDs like this one in regular 4:3 format when there is the alternative for a wide screen like in the case of this beautiful but mutilated movie? Why is not the market refusing to sell this kind of [stuff] to discourage the production of this consumer misleading fake? If I wanted an antique I would buy a videotape instead a DVD. After all, we are already in the 21st century, aren't we?"
82227,1,very uncomfortable,"It is likely to keep using it, maybe you can get used, but the truth is that this is quite uncomfortable, painful, the engine is too high a working party of revolution, and touches the skin, causing an unpleasant impression, and it only tested in the forearm."
82228,1,Total waste of money,Useless product. Does not remove any hair. It was advertised as being good for small areas but is a total failure.
82240,1,Expected as much,"Silliness.But of course it is.What else could it be with the title quite accurate.It's a fun read, but not too fun.Don't buy it. Even for free"
82267,1,Not work at all!,"I've been buying these discs since 2004. However the discs in the last spindle I received don't work at all! I've done the same thing as always when recording on my DVD recorder and nothing was saved. I don't mean anything but this facts coincides with the lowering of the price. A few months ago, this spindle costed $15-17 and now only $9-10."
82282,1,"I have no complain, evangelical women told the stories.","In editorial review Dr Mac Brunson wrote ""More than half a billion women live their entire lives peeking out from behind heavy veils."" Is that right? Is not it an astronomical Christian missionary style lie? More than 70% Muslims live in Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Turkey, and India. Do you evangelical Christians know how many of them peek through heavy veils? Let alone wearing veil, many even do not cover their heads. If the sories in this book were indeed told by the evangelical Christian women, then these lies and deceptions make sense. I have no complain. Another slam dunk distortion by the Caner bros."
82363,1,Poor faith by Zoverstocks,"I ordered a DVD through Amazon from Zoverstocks. I live in the U.S. Evidently, Zoverstocks is a foreign country. When the DVD arrived, it could not be played on a U.S. DVD player. I immediately wrote to Zoverstocks to inquiry about their return policy. When I did not hear from them in 2 weeks, I wrote again. I have never heard from them and the time for returns has passed. Now I'm stuck with a DVD that cannot be played in the U.S. The worst part is that I purchased the DVD as a gift for someone else and was very embarrassed when it wouldn't work."
82415,1,Not Comprehensive,"Unless you already know most of Calculus and are just using this book as a refresher, which is doubtful, this book is not the most comprehesive. Because the first chapter is a ""refresher"" on pre-calculus work (mostly trigonometry) it doesn't take the time to explain any of the material. It appears this book focuses more on the trig portion of calculus than the algebraic components."
82428,1,erm..uh...why?,"Maybe it's because I'm (probably) young compared to most of you, or maybe it's because I think Simon Cowell is a pretentious jerk who only knows about pop music (not a compliment, but when I actually listened to this c.d. when I was bored one day, I found myself asking 'why?'. ""Why do people enjoy this?"" Why did Simon Cowell see it fit to plague the world with not just crappy pop american idols, but these guys, too?"" ""Why did my friend buy this?"" It's just a bunch of boring guys singing boring songs they probably didn't write (i hate when people sing songs they didn't write. It just screams ""not a real artist""). The only reason that i gave the c.d. a 2 was because I have to admit the guys can sing. I can't, and I don't talk when I can't do the same. But theose boys have got some pipes....otherwise, it's a 1."
82433,1,didn't like this item,the keys were to close together and there was no speaker on the base. i returned it.
82471,1,nothing special,"Aight, let me summarize all the lyrics of this album for you in a couple of sentences.1. I am from Compton.2. I love NWA, Nas, Jay-z, Pac, BIG...(the list goes on). That is why I have to drop their names in every song.3. Dr.Dre and 50 are my friends, so, as follows, I will also call their names out on every bar.4. I ride Impalas and like Nike Air Ones.That's it!!!!!! I ain't kidding! Nothing original, no jaw-dropping rhymes to spit, no flava or style! He gets outshined by the beat on every track (hence the 2 stars - for the beats). I regret so much that I bought this crap. I mean, I liked him on Westside story, but that is the only track where he doesn't only rap about the 4 things described above.My only wish is that somewhere there is a cat with an ill lyrical talent and skills like those of Biggie, Nas or Big L, who will blow all these whack cats away from the rap scene for good."
82618,1,Not so good.......,"(2 and a half stars)This game is pretty lousy. I'm not really sure why I bought it, but I did. At first it may seem like a pretty cool game. The control is ok, it has a South Park feel, and the weapons are pretty creative. However, once the novelties wear off the game begins to get more and more boring. The levels become the same exact thing: run around, kill enemies, run around some more, kill even more enemies, level over. After a few sessions, you will not want to play this game any more. The multiplayer is not bad, but you'd be much better off with a game like Goldeneye 007. If you are an absolute South Park fanatic you will enjoy this game, but don't expect the enjoyment to last long. I reccomend skipping this game and picking up a game with a little replay value."
82621,1,"Just another ""Clerks""","Hardly hilarious movie attempting to be angst-ridden ironic social satire. Steve Buscemi turned in a good performance in an unusual character for him, but all others were quite bland. The main character was nothing but a self-absorbed teenage loser, bulldozing through other peoples lives, blissfully scornful of the damage she was doing. If you liked Clerks, and many did, you'll probably like this, but, if you, like me, found that movie also to be boring and self-involved, then you won't like this one much either. ..."
82647,1,Poor quality,"This product is not nice at all, perhaps I expect too much from pillow protectors but they are rough and not good quality. I am returning this product."
82653,1,not believable,"Hard to believe THIS is the literary inspiration behind some of the anti-government, racist movements today. Glad I read it though. The writer gives Turner immediate access to all sorts of weapons, chemicals, etc. without giving a plausible explanation for how it was done. Turner is a sociopath and yet we are invited to be interested in his love affair. Turner is incapable of the emotional attributes necessary to form a love interest. This is a very simple minded effort to inspire a small segment of our society. How it has succeeded at all is a mystery."
82722,1,false advertising,"I am very dissatisfied with this dvd.The cover and the disc inside say 2009 and it looks new,however upon putting in the disc I realize it is old footage form 2001 which the dvd states in the end.Now I love other dvd's from Leslie and I do the workouts every week but I did not want an old production.I would say be aware that they are repackaging old workouts with updated covers to get you to think they are new!What a bummer!Also the stretchy band inside is not even used in the exercises."
82881,1,Don't last AT ALL,"The shaving heads work well while they last. But, they don't really last more than a month or so, whether using them for the body or the scalp, before the foil gets torn by raising up on one side, and then coming into contact with the blades, which rips open the foil, leaving a gaping hole, and rendering it useless.The bodygroomer, while touted as a groomer for the body, really is also extremely good to do daily up-keep shaves on an already closely-shaved head. It is like using an eraser on your scalp. It works amazingly well, and does it incredibly quickly.The heads are [...] each plus shipping [...]. Buying three of them basically gets you three months worth of shaving. But it's annoying to have to reorder these frigging foil heads all the time, since they're not available in stores."
82911,1,"Has some errors, and some areas are way to detailed for what you need for the USMLE","This book is advertised as being 128 pages, but it is actually only 104 pages (which includes 2 blank pages). There are some charts/graphs/tables that really aren't necessary for the book, but were probably added to try and pump up the page count. In reality, all the biostats you need could be covered in 50 pages or less (including some practice questions), but I suppose the author and publisher couldn't justify charging $29.95 for something that small.Worst of all, I found a few errors. I'd list them here, but then I'd feel like I'm working for free for the author and publisher."
82984,1,Not good.,"Dont bother paying for this as it simply is nothing like the first one. Bad acting, a couple decent fights, bad plot, not even a attractive blond romantic interest or beleiveable villan."
82999,1,defective DVD,Movie is excellent after I bought the DVD it would just play up to scene 14 and skip to the end..they replaced it and it was the same thing.. I finally had to go rent the movie and watch it...strong performance by both actors...movie is a ***** (five star) but not on DVD
83010,1,much luv to mo' thugs,"to be real its not a cd worth buying out the store. the beats are to watered down for a real thug. ""real talk from a real listener of hardcore rap."""
83031,1,actually its not worth 1 star,How did this crappy band get so popular. There is absolutly zero talent. The guitars are laughable. And the repetitive whining lyrics. Give me a break. This was the album that spawned the worst genre of music since country! If you think this is good music than I feel sorry for you. Who wants to listen to jon davis cry about his daddy molesting him? The real tragedy is that his dad didnt kill him while he was at it.
83135,1,Disappointed,"After my second use of the tea pot, the handle to the lid broke off. Also, I never got a reply about how to replace it."
83162,1,Unseats Rufus Wainwright from my worst CD list,"This is pitiful. I have over 1000 CDs in my collection and this now is the worst of the bunch, unseating that crappy Rufus Wainwright CD I bought last year. How anyone can listen to this and not feel ripped off is beyond me. It is not music. It will make a good frisbee, however. I actually like Ani and thought this would be a good diversion. Ani should refund everyone who bought this double the money back for having to endure this agony."
83168,1,Nice try,Good concept but poor execution. The book had some interesting insights into the music business but was too long. Tyree's imitation of drum beats quite annoying and almost made me put the book down!
83178,1,Garbage,"This band really lost their edge w/this release. Voracious Contempt and the masterpiece The Extinction of Benevolence put this to shame. The guitar sound is pathetic and the vocals, while not bad, cannot touch Rini's brutal and hateful vox from the first 2 cd's. They should really give it up now, because they are an embarassment to the death metal scene."
83217,1,Best Iced Coffee Maker Out There!,"Sure, this product is was on the eyes, but God help you if you want a hot cup of coffee! The first cup will be nice and hot, the second cup will be luke warm...the third cup may as well be iced coffee. I mean come on. I kept looking in the directions to see if there was a way to keep the lousy pot hot. All it is says is, for best results fill pot with hot water first. That's all I need, an extra step and a waste of water. And to top it all off, the pot isn't even dishwasher safe. I've got to find a nice old fashioned glass carafe coffee maker, and soon. The kind that keeps the coffee warm from 1st cup to last. This thing stinks"
83309,1,DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS BOOK,"If Danielle Steel didn't already have 60+ novels to her credit, this is yet another book that would have never been published. It is written in her outline-like style without any real feeling. While the story itself is good, it really got old that the reader had to wait so long for Faith and Brad to get together."
83399,1,LOW Budget and Sucked!,"What a piece of crap movie! Low budget, cheesy acting, looks like a film student filmed and wrote it. Prison inmates try to break out of prison and just all get killed at the end. Sucked."
83458,1,What the heck?,Why on earth is this awful movie on DVD and the original Jaws isn't? Who is gonna buy this thing? I'm getting a headache just thinking about it.
83491,1,The sound quality is not as good as expected.,"While using this connector to forge my iPod's stream to the car radio, I find it carries some distortion on the high freq, making some noise on the cassette player as well."
83522,1,waste of money,"Having read the previous reviews, I knew I was taking a chance when ordering this. It was a losing gamble. The light bulb lit up very dimly for about a half second, never to light again. I tried all of the things listed in the reviews - tinfoil, metal on base and side, same piece of metal on both sides, on side and base, etc. No go. Buyer be warned."
83562,1,lame land,"Oh, the curse of being a Linda Cardellini fan. Movies about ""alernative lifestyle"" cowboys, massive animated dogs, and this clunker of clunkers. Extoll all you wish about the imagery and soundtrack (which having some musical taste- I found irritating), this movie is simply bad. There is no real ""horror"" and the characters do and say things that normal people wouldn't. I found this dog at a yard sale and bought it for the princely sum of a dollar, and even then I feel that I wasted my money.Linda- for God's sake- do something worthwhile- not something that I feel I have to hide at the back of the DVD cabinet!"
83627,1,Too much of a Wannabe,"A friend of mine recommended this book to me since she knew how much I enjoy the Gossip Girl Series. Unfortunately, from page 1, it seems like this book is wanting to be too much like gossip girl. The only differences I could find between the two are that The A-List takes place in Calfornia instead of New York, the format isn't in the webpage style, and Gossip Girl is a much better read. I'm not saying that the book is completely horrible, but if you have read Gossip Girl before, your in for a bit of a disappointment. Those who haven't read GG series may find this book more enjoyable than I did."
83714,1,Deflated,"The product arrived with a hole we could not find. We bought this with several other toys for a pool party we were throwing. The adults eventually laid it out on the patio and used it to sit on so their swimsuits wouldn't snag. I saw in other product reviews that it showed up with a hole, and I took a chance anyway. My bad."
83715,1,Ripped off,"This item was a ripoff. It is advertised as a full size replica helmet at 73% off, you will receive a mini helmet at a higher price than you could have paid anywhere else. The mini helmet itself is a nice helmet, just not what I paid for.The seller (Online Sports) claims it was Amazon who gave the wrong description and after waiting a week for a response they best they could do would give me a 20% discount on a helmet I already overpaid for or return it. Remember when there was customer service and companies actually took responsibility for their mistakes. I want what I paid for, I want what was advertised and I want to pay the advertised price.Do NOT buy from Online Sports on Amazon, they will only take your money and run"
83780,1,It took much disipline to finish reading!,"I have been a big fan of ARS for a long time. I've read most of her books, some of them were so good I could hardly put them down. I have lived in several of the locales she has written about and could relate to the people, climate,etc. Ms. Siddens, what happened to you this time? I was bored the entire book but kept reading thinking that it HAD to get better-----It never did. Ms. Siddens, I have to say you really missed the mark with this one, it is awful."
83846,1,(YAWN!!!) Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz,"Bunch of BUNK!! Fell asleep part ways into it. Woke up during it, and sadly watched it to it's (glad it's finally over) end. Conclusion: 88 minutes of wasted life I'll never get back. If you wish to lose 88 minutes of your life, do yourself a favor and just sit outside watching your grass grow."
83878,1,Reebok Fitwatch,"Watch has great fit and finish. The watch measures heart rate well when you are NOT exercising hard, but is not consistent when you are moving quickly. Obviously that is the time when I want it to work... Additionally, it will not read heart rate wit dry skin underneath the watch. If you are not sweating, you must moisten the skin under the watch to make good contact. This is most inconvenient. Overall, the idea is great, but not carried out well. I would not recommend the watch to anyone who is looking for consistent, simple heart rate monitoring."
83883,1,This book is useless,"This book is useless. I am an independent producer, and I found out the hard way that no financier wants to look at a business plan. If they are in the business they want to see a script and maybe, a budget. If they are not in the business, they want to see LLC documents. See The Biz, Schuyler M. Moore, Silman-James Press, Beverly Hills, 2002."
83916,1,Left my skin dry,"This is an extraordinarily expensive after shave balm, so my expectations were very high. The product went on very smoothy, with no oily residue and no off putting or overwhelming scent. So, right off the bat, I was impressed. That is where my fondness stopped.I have rather dry skin, especially around the corners of my mouth. I had hoped that this balm would have done better than the Nivea Sensitive Extra Soothing Balm I had used in the past, which was adequate. I was sorely disappointed. The reason for a one star rating, as apposed to perhaps two, is the fact that each tiny bottle costs ~ $40! Outrageous! My advice would be to try a much less expensive product."
84006,1,"Heart will go on?? No, life will go on!!","What can I say, the movie wasn't worth a single academy award! The only thing I liked was the bad boyfriend (Billy Zane), who is (compared to DiCaprio) a good actor!"
84074,1,VERY BAD!,"As much as I hate this ersatz manufactured group of musical ""Wannabes,"" the only good thing that can be said about them is that many girls feel better about themselves.Spice Girls. Some example. They can't sing, dance, act, play any instruments, compose or deliver lines. They are just a musical farce. Detractors of the original quintet have dubbed them Nasty Spice, Rancid, Rotten, Stinky and Stupid. Old Spices belong in the cupboard or down the drain after a certain amount of time has elapsed. These women belong down the drain!"
84104,1,The Songs Doesn't Remain The Same . . .,"Some audio expresions from Robert Plant are missing on this dvd versionI notice that almost at the end of ""The Song Remains The Same"" track you don't hear a ""come on, here we go"" compared to the vhs, also at the middle of ""Stairway to Heaven"" there is another missing vocal bit when Robert repeats ""wait a minute"" for the second time...Even at the end of the same track you can't find another line.If you look for these discrepancies you will be amazed of how people dare to CHANGE MUSIC HISTORY during a remasterization process.No one has the right to do that... I guess after all,THE SONG DOESN'T REMAINS THE SAME."
84182,1,Warning - watch out for this one!,"This is a great film. Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman really click and it's a shame they only made two films together. However, I can't recommend buying this particular VHS release of Indiscreet. Hello! - it's recorded in the EP (SLP) mode and also letterboxed and a lot of quality is lost - very blurry. Strange that the other films in the Cary Grant Collection released by Republic are recorded in standard SP, digitally remastered and all that. This one is strictly for the bargain bin at K-Mart."
84184,1,Not a precise circle cutter,"I bought this for my Dremel to cut circles for carved wooden hand mirrors. I need precise circles of the proper diameter and they have to be round. there's a lot of slop in the connection to the Dremel, and as you follow around the circle, the Dremel can move laterally in the fixture. The result is an uneven circle. It could be good enough for drywall work, but not for routing good cricles in wood."
84197,1,Mixed Bag,"I've always liked her on ""Will & Grace,"" but never knew MM was a singer. I bought this CD having been charmed by MM's rendition of Tom Waits's ""Take It with Me"" on David Letterman. I absolutely love the vulnerable, haunting quality of the low-key selections. Her voice IS about as big as a berry--which, on a simple, lovely song like ""Lament,"" is a gift. But she can't manage the several upbeat numbers, like ""Bathroom Window."" Her voice simply isn't big enough to pull it off, at least to my ear. When she really tries to get big (as at the end of an otherwise touching version of ""Danny Boy,"") I find her almost abrasive. BUT: I'd recommend it anyway. I just skip over what I don't like and enjoy the rest."
84245,1,I loved it,"A Million Little Pieces was good, but My Friend Leonard was even better. What a colorful character Leonard was.It doesn't matter to me that Frey embellished the truth, both books are good and thoughtful reads.Suzanne"
84278,1,Terribly Violent,This movie is so violent that it is unwatchable. I enjoy ware movies and some of my favorites are considered by others to be extremely violent so I can watch almost anything but this movie is way too much!
84299,1,Makes no Difference,"I connected the antenna to my Mitsubishi with an integrated HD tuner and could not receive stations with any consistency. I mounted the antenna in several locations, indoor and out, including on a mast on my roof and reception never improved. I purchased a cheaper conventional outdoor antenna and reception is perfect. I live approximately 25 miles north from the towers in Dallas. Very disappointing for the price."
84451,1,An honest question,"When the stench of a movie offends one's delicate nasal hairs, is it time to complain? Me thinketh this stinketh!"
84481,1,Stupid and Tact-Less,"I have to hand it to you, this movie IS really stupid. And why would you call this a childerens movie when the jokes are made for the older audiances? The graphis, lets say it this way, weren't better then other succesful movies, such as ""Monsters Inc."" and ""Finding Nemo"" There was a lack of that touch.What disgusted me alot, was the fact that TONS of the scenes were taken from lots of other famous movies. If you watch closely enough, you can find them. E.G. ""The lion king"" ""Lion king 2"" ""The Jungle book"" ""The Prince of Egypt"" ""Monsters Inc."" ""Shrek""..Of course, a movie is a movie, and movies have lots of efforts made into them. There were funny secens, and the effects were nice.Dont know/think you should spend too much on this movie. Enjoy as much as you can!"
84484,1,False advertising,"I purchased the ZEN725 which is advertised as being able to operate PIP and it does NOT even have a PIP button. When I attempted to call the helpline I could not get to a live person ,just push one ,push two ,etc. I then tried the Email address and got a can't find answer. I'm taking it back for a refund."
84518,1,Find something else,"I tried this based on store staff recommendation. 2 days later I had 2 fish instead of 7 fish. The ich is gone, but just as likely because I raised the tank temp to 82F as the directions on the bottle suggest. When I went back to the store, two other staff told me it was not a great product. They also told me that raising the tank temp so high in a short time (as in 1 degree per hour) was bad for the fish."
84570,1,They Might Be Giants,This week the movie (complete) is showing on Retroplex. Record it from this cable channel.
84605,1,Don't get this game! Buy another one!,"I rented this game (luckily I didn't buy it) hoping it would be a good college basketball game. Man, was I wrong. I really wanted it so I could play with my favorite team, but found that my team wasn't even in the game, even though they are a division 1 school. In fact, the game leaves out a number of 1-A conferences. Some of the conferences they leave out have teams that make it to the tournament almost every year! I don't get it. The gameplay also is not good. I feel like I have almost no control over the ball handler. The courts are not detailed either. They all look the same (with the exception of the school logo in the center). I stress to you not to buy this game. I am just happy I rented it before buying."
84706,1,Better see the first one,"This sequel is very bad. The director is not W.Peterson, and the result is just dull. Avoid this bad movie, and rewatch the first and only one Neverending story. Read the book, if you want. But do not watch this thing, or you'll regret it!"
84862,1,Painful,This movie took everything that made the other films great and threw them out the window. There is a reason this movie was named Worst Movie of the Year by film critics.It is to the Raiders Legacy what jar Jar and Episode I is to Star Wars. Painful to watch.
85020,1,"Thin, cheaply made","""You get what you pay for"" applies perfectly. I thought this would be a good motorcycle riding jacket but it's too thin and looks like from a rack in a bargain basement. OK for hanging out with posers."
85039,1,Don't waste your time on this book,"This is a very disgusting novel that revels in rape, immoral sex, incidents of violence and torture. Almost all the secondary characters are ridiculously one dimensional. Most of the historical events are presented poorly and are surrounded by imagined and simplistic dialogue between real leaders of the time, none of which comes across as believable. Don't expect to learn anything from reading this pulp fiction.If your interested in Zionism and the birth of the modern country of Israel, read a real history book. There are so many great novels out there, don't waste your time on this book."
85093,1,Delonghi = defective by design,"We had a rude awaking today, our Delonghi toaster was on fire. I will never again buy any Delonghi product. The defective design is in the toast switch. It is mechanical. When it finishes toasting, it sometimes continues to the ""Always On"" position thus leaving the toaster oven on toast: very, very hot. We literally had a house full of smoke & a toaster full of flames. You were warned.Funny thing is, Delonghi makes an attractive product.Sad thing is, they can cost you your house or worse."
85197,1,Big disappointment for highly touted book ...,"This book would only be useful if I were travelling to Spain. And even the 3 days I spent there, not a single word was mentioned of Bilbao, Valladolid, and the northern Atlantic cities. Very dissappointing. The book reserves all of about 30 pages on Portugal, none of which provide nearly as insightful as the Lonely Planet or Michelin guides. My advice, save your money and buy something else."
85246,1,darn,"I bought this for my iPod Touch 4th Generation. It worked for about two weeks at which point my iPod started telling me that the accessory wasn't supported by the device. It's now sitting in a drawer somewhere, unused.I'm sure this is a nice product in general, but not for my iPod Touch 4th Gen. :/ Waste of money."
85255,1,Pure Fiction...do not buy if you're looking for professional text,"What a sham of a book. This should be retitled,Hardcore Collections: A financial guide for felons and hustlers.I returned it after wasting $10 and 30 minutes of my time reading it."
85257,1,Painful!,"The singer's voice and her rolling ""r's"" are absolutely painful...and so is the German!The CD deserves no star, just a swift kick in the garbage."
85275,1,1962's LONE PICTURE,"WERE THERE NO OTHER MOTION PICTURES MADE IN 1962? HOW ON EARTH THIS WON BEST PICTURE IS BEYOND ME. WHAT WAS RUNNER-UP ""WATCHING PAINT DRY""? THIS MOVIE WAS TERRIBLE AND SHOULD NEVER BE LISTED WITH THE CLASSICS! DO NOT BUY THIS MOVIE."
85287,1,"It's OK, but not much help in the ""real world""","For the real beginner in ASP.Net, this may be a good start, I thought it lacked any depth in real world applications. If we are to use ASP.Net as a platform for robust web based applications, this book does not succeed in giving the reader the tools needed to accomplish that. I was hoping for some more in depth coverage beyond ""Hello World"" examples. .Net is still fairly new and requires some explaining, even for veteran Microsoft based programmers. Although this book covers the basic areas well, it falls short after that. My frustration in getting the needed information caused me to add it to the shelf to collect dust. I am off to find something more useful."
85298,1,"No, one size does not fit most!",The panties are one size fits most....if you consider most women to be size 2-4. I am not that big and these were WAY small on me.
85303,1,Gorgeous but don't work,I keep hoping that they'll get brighter but they haven't yet. They do look nice... I've received several compliments. But I still have people stumbling up a dark driveway.
85364,1,"waste of time, Not balanced at all - lack of substance","I have to agree with another reviewer. There are far better references/books out there than this one. It seems the author came up with a catchy title and wrote a book around it. But all ""twenty things"" can be really categorized into one thing - dealing with grief. Dealing with grief is very important, yes. but I don't believe that should be the only thing discussed with your adopted child. I feel this book is totally Unbalanced and paints a distorted picture of what an everday life is like for an adopted family. waste of time!"
85398,1,"Totally worthless ""professional tester""",This MV5530 compression gauge did not work correctly right out of the box. Almost cost me a lot of unnecessary repair time and money. There is no good reason for Mityvac to ship a new gauge that does not work. Buyer beware of this company's products.
85448,1,Cheaply made but cute,On of the bugs already broke and though they are colorful they are cheaply made. Wouldn't buy them again.
85450,1,Handle heats up & does NOT whistle,"I do like the color--reason I bought it-- goes with my KitchenAid Mixer and utensils, etc.; BUT it does NOT whistle. Tried less water so that there was enough space for the air to heat up and cause whistling, but it does NOT! Get involved in my writing and forget I'd put kettle on, so this is NOT good. Also, as another reviewer states, the handle does heat up seriously, unlike the kettle I have costing $2.95 which I purchased at the local grocer and to which I return gladly. Am returning this item and saving up for a much better kettle if I want one. NOT A KETTLE FOR DAILY USE. Mostly decorative."
85478,1,Terrifying babywearing pictures!,"The wrapped baby pictures are cute, but the babywearing pictures or ""sling"" pages are absolutely horrible. NONE of the pictures feature proper babywearing technique and some are outright dangerous. I hope that no one who purchases this nonsense uses any of her pictures as a tutorial. Instead, please watch videos on youtube or contact a local babywearing group to make sure your child is safe while being worn.And wrapping a baby up in a paper map because you forgot his blanket at home? I really hope she's kidding."
85480,1,Who designed this thing anyway?,"This is the stupidest design. The first thing I did when I took this out of the box was to remove the cardboard label. A little corner of the cardboard ripped off and got stuck in between the handle and the scooper. The handle does not sit flush on the scooper so things can fall down into the handle. But it's not a big enough gap to get it back out once it's fallen in. I can just imagine chopping an onion into little pieces, scooping it up and having some of the pieces get caught in the handle and left there to rot forever. Who designed this thing anyway? I sent it back and will look for a something solid."
85573,1,Another pointless DVD issue,"Clearly the idiot execs at Miramax did read not the previous reviews of the previous DVD release. This issue of this movie is exactly the same as the previous issue. Whilst the AMAZON product's original description posted said was 140 minutes (recently corrected by Amazon) when infact it is actually, - per the label on the back - 133 minutes. So this ""new"" release is still the same as the previous substandard release and is also the, SHORTENED edited version missing the entire opening scene as in the theatrical release. Further to add insult to injury, after eagerly purchasing which what I thought based on the product description was the uneditied verion - there are absolutely NO extras - not even the measly theatrical trailer.Stay clear of this recent release....and hopefuly the studio (Miramax) will get their act together and release the full - unedited version."
85584,1,If only it worked consistently,Would be a great product but barely worked. Had to mess with it for a while and then it would but would still shut off. I contacted medela and they offered to replace. I think I'll take them up on that.
85658,1,Banned by the FAA,Buy your child a ticket and use your carseat or CARES (if child is over 22lbs) - don't cheap out at the expense of your baby's safety. These are no longer allowed.
85671,1,"algorithms, coding, programming skills, programs","i am an engineer and i am doing master in computer sciences. i have a project so, i need some reference books to studies.. thanks"
85681,1,Not looking good,I ordered this item dec. 28 and It still hasn't shipped yet{ jan. 20 } so I couldn't say.
85738,1,Dissapointing!,"I am sorry to break this to you guys but this was pretty dissapointing. The best parts were the fencing which was tame, to say the least. Yet if you like a more dramatic film than one filled with action this may be your thing. The acting was reasonable and the plot hard to understand unless you understand the history, morals, society and conflicts of Eastern Germany! MR L should stick to the ACTION films!"
85798,1,Worst video quality I've ever seen in a DVD,"I'm not sure whether the person who says ""disregard negative reviews"" is doing anyone a favour - because a lot of what's been said to date here about the poor video is negative but very accurate. I love Peter Gabriel - I have all his albums and had this DVD on VHS previously. I bought this DVD along with Growing Up in the weekend. Growing Up is superb video quality whereas Secret World Live is the worst and grainest music DVD I've ever seen. I have a very good quality TV set and hundreds of music DVDs so my comments are most certainly not to do with equipment or operator error. The sound quality is superb though and as a result you can tolerate the bad video for the amazing sound. It rocks in DTS! Its sad that such poor video quality (and one which boasts of being remastered!) is out there and I'm sure the artist himself did not know about this before it was released. Someone of PGs status deserves only the best."
85864,1,lasted 3 months,this product was agreat for about 3 months .then it started loosing pressure. i only used it 3 times.know its collecting dust in the garage.i cant locate the leak.with the cost of return shipping .i would loose money sending it back.
85929,1,Meh...,"Remember a couple years ago on MTV? That cover band challenge they had? remember the winning band, Strangers with Candy? they were an awesome good old fashioned hard rock band with great vocals. very original. Well, they ditched the originality, changed their name to Lifer, and put out this piece of generic nu metal that you can't tell from anything else.There are some good songs on here but in a couple years only the best nu metal acts with remain and these guys really don't have what it takes."
85940,1,Don't buy it!,"We purchased this two years ago for the same price and have felt ripped off ever since. I can't believe it is still on the market. It does not do what an almost $80 piece of equipment should do. It barely improves the reception. Keep shopping for a better quality antenna. There is no ""Pin-Dot Pre-Tuning"" with this hunk of junk."
85970,1,"Directions, please?","Has anyone else been unable to read the directions on the back of the bottle? At least on the container I have, the font is white on a yellow background and I can't make out the words. Should I apply and then leave it or rinse it out, or let it dry and vacuum it? No idea. I think it probably works, but I would like to use it as directed."
86004,1,Buy it for the looks...,"The only thing that this phone has going for it is the looks...it is VERY stylish and i get complimented on it every time i use it.I bought this phone directly from sprint and it has been a complete nightmare!First of all the phone is rediulously slow as far as when i dial numbers i am on the fourth or fifth one before they come across the screen. Also, when i press any button the response is maybe three or four seconds and i am talking 1-one thousand 2- one thousand...Second, i was playing a game on the phone and the circular plastic piece in the enter of the navigational keypad came off on my thumb as if it was glued on with elmer's...and i am not rough with phones. i don't know if it was the sprint version or motorola, but i am ready to throw this phone against the wall, but since i am so vain i give it 2 stars just for the looks. but i am getting rid of it because looks ain't everything."
86007,1,pedantic prose,"Unfortunately, what could have been a riviting excursion into the psyche of two characters whose mothers played overwhelming roles in their development, the book never seems to develop fully. The two men remain shadow figures, neither developed nor illuminated. The Mussolini's Ghost segment, while somewhat interesting, missed being funny. The heavy, pedantic approach to motherhood leaves one with the sense that both characters, and perhaps the author, are mysogynists."
86072,1,This gun sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!,This gun was soooooooo bad. I wanted to play with it the first day I got it. Guess what. The clip broke. I got a new clip ( for 10 bucks) and then The scope had no crosshairs and didn't magnify at all. Please don't buy this gun. it is a colossal waste of money.
86142,1,Give this one a miss!,"I like Sean Bean and I liked the other Sharpe's adventures I've seen, but this one was utterly cringe-worthy. Clunky dialogue, dodgy plot, and to top it all off it has spoiled my opinion of Sharpe as having any honour at all! This episode is laddish without being fun and I regret my purchase."
86147,1,Susan is no Ann Coulter!,"Why would anyone spend money for this book? It is just more whining. Susan needs to get her own material and stop trying to be an imitation of someone else. Isn't Susan happy in her own skin and with her own looks?Ann has the facts on her side. Susan represents the party that is quite happy taking scissors and sticking them in the back of the neck of a partially born baby whom they want to kill. Need I say more about who is ""Soulless and Godless""? Don't waste your time and money with this book."
86153,1,Elementary School Book,This book is organized and illustrated as if elementary students were going to use it. But it is not a textbook. I was hoping more for something practical and applicable to young adult education.
86173,1,Was not aware that the thermostat had to be installed by a professional HVAC contractor,I received 2 thermostats as ordered but upon opening and reading instructions found that the thermostat must be installed by a professional rather than a homeowner. i called Honeywell and received a poor conversation and discussion concerning the installation and was not aware that homeowner could not install or would get installation assistance from Honeywell.
86303,1,Weems & Plath stuff stinks!!!... On a good day,I have owned 5 Weems & Plath products and every one had a working problem. Don't wast Youre money! This one did not work at all.
86339,1,"Looks good, hardly works",We used this a total of about three times within the first few months of getting it. Usage is confusing and directions are some of the poorest written ones I've seen. Tried to use it again tonight after a couple years in storage. Doesn't work at all. Pump isn't producing hot water. Frother doesn't work. Pretty disappointing - especially for the $400 price tag.
86341,1,Monthly fee required,No where on this website does it tell you that you can't play the game without paying a $12.95 monthly fee.
86359,1,Depressing Stereotyping,"Someone actually described this film as presenting ""eight totally unique stories"". Actually, it's the same story again and again, drearily repeated: good Chinese woman abused by horrible Chinese man. I cannot believe anyone's vision was ever limited enough to produce a film in which one character after another is presented as such a caricature."
86376,1,Customer support,"THERE IS NO CUSTOMER SUPPORT AVAILABLE FOR THIS PRODUCT. It is not shown on the RCA website, the phone numbers in the owners manual have been changed or aren'tactive anymore. We were told that the company had been sold!Again, THERE IS NO CUSTOMER SUPPORT AVAILABLE FOR THIS PRODUCT!"
86379,1,Dead after less than a year,"I purchased this drive to use as a backup for my Mac desktop and laptop. I don't have a ton of vital data, but I have important private documents and a very large collection of digital music that I spent many hours organizing. So backing up is a must for me, although I admit I don't do it often enough.This product worked fine for several months. Then, one day I noticed that its light wasn't on. I played around with the cords, checked the outlet, and so on. Nothing. Now I have an expensive brick full of sensitive data and hundreds of dollars of music that would probably cost me half again as much to get professionally recovered.Very disappointing. But the best part was, when I requested help, I was told I ""should have kept a backup."" Yeah, thanks. Great advice."
86386,1,The connectors are weak,"The connectors at each end are made of cheap material and do not have a large flat, hex surface from which to place your fingers and twist. I have other cables that have a hex connector with a flat surface about 3/8 of an inch that are easy to turn. The cable works however, just difficult to twist on / off which I have done several times because of various reasons."
86477,1,dried up,Clay was repackaged and dried out. It was completely unusable. Sent in a request for return with no response. I will not buy anything from them again.
86481,1,Average sound system,Unit does not have the individual frequency range control that I need. Also the programing is quite complex. Seems to me the sound is very hollow. Very pricey for what it is. All functions do operate ae described in the owners manual. Guess I needed to do more shopping.May be alright for an entry level Home theater system.
86569,1,wouldn't dare to call my own,"First off, I don't understand why Marian would have to ugly down. Her ""Amanda ALWAYS WINS"" attitude made me want to scream. All she had to do was let her personality outshine Amanda's and stand up for herself. Then she'd never want for a friend or suitor. The man was pretty thick and not the least bit attractive. Basically you got a whole lot of boring people feeling sorry for themselves, then you get a lot of this boring stuff repeating itself, and then something somewhat exciting tries to happen but it only makes it feel random and downright unnecessary. The hero and the heroine (if you want to call them that) went from hating each other to making out, to bickering to rolling around in a barn, to ignoring each other to sucking each other's faces, to fighting to getting engaged. It became too much to keep up with. Is this the same Johanna Lindsey who wrote about that loving scoundrel, Jeremy Malory?!?"
86622,1,EXTREMELY Disappointing,I tried this at home with my DirectTV box in my bedroom and the TV with the Remote extender in my Living Room. The remote had to go thru just2 walls at less than 20ft. away and could not do it. It was a total waste of money.
86626,1,Could Have Been Worse...but I don't see how!,"A spiral bound self published book by an author who, I am sure, knows a lot about the subject of quilts. He made an excellent effort at putting together this book, but the pictures were disappointing as most of the quilts were laying flat and one could not get a good feel for the patterns. Also, the ""color photographs"" mentioned are really poor copies of color photographs taped to the page. For the price of this book I would have expected a more professional product.Also, while he did mention the importance of stitching, he didn't show good examples of stitching such as quilting designs within the actual quilt pattern, how many stitches per inch, evenness of stitches, etc.I'll give him credit, though, for putting effort into the book and I am sure it will be helpful to someone who know's nothing of quilts--but not me."
86647,1,Lindsey is a false prophet?,When this book first came out it stated that Jesus would return 40 years after the founding of the Jewish nation. We are now 20 years apast the date Lindsey gave for the return of Jesus. I guess that makes Mr.Lindsey the leading false prophet in the evangelical church today.
86759,1,(Waste of)Time Line,"It's not often that a movie comes out that has good costumes and sets, and a fun idea and then is totally ruined by the worst acting you have ever seen. Not one... Not two... But ALL the actors were horrible. They even forget their accents often. Richard Donner should be ashamed. Don't waste your Timeline on this stinker."
86776,1,Charlie's hair-flipping-obssessed Angels!,"This movie is one of the worst ever. Well, if you're a guy, at least you could possibly derive some satisfaction from ogling the girls. But if not, hell, the plot is predictable, the girls annoying -- much of their screen time is devoted to flipping their hair. I wanted to scalp them by the time the movie was through. The action sequences spells The Matrix. No originality, cheesy characterization, boring plot, and loads of hair-flipping. Eeeeew."
86830,1,Creepy,"When I saw the Mother holding the 20 year old son, I really didn't know what to think. I was oddly creeped-out and I am a very open minded person. I ended-up throwing this book away. I know, SHAME!"
86848,1,Fostering co-dependency,"My mother gave me this book this summer and I only read it once before I vowed never to open it again. It stinks of everything unhealthy about a relationship my mother would love to have with me. It supports an unbalanced, clingy, unhealthy and codependent relationship between a mother and her son. I cannot support this book in any way. I hope that people will think twice before exposing their children to unhealthy relationship examples such as this one."
87092,1,teaches things you'll have to un-teach later,"Ugh. You'd do best to pick a different book. Not only is this one a measly 6 pages long, but the expressions don't match the words they've chosen--so you're effectively teaching your child incorrect words for a particular expression (nothing like making them unlearn things later!), and, while the editor clearly was intending to include a ""diverse"" set of babies, they ended up putting negative words next to both of the two black babies they included! Nothing like showing your little kiddo a darling black girl and saying ""yucky!"" as you read the text. Puhlease."
87182,1,rain dogs? huh?,"This guy is just a creep. He looks dead on the album cover and he sounds dead on the songs. Clap Hands? CRAP Hands is more like it, please!I don't know what happened to real rock and roll like Creedence and Skynnrd. This guy sounds like he passed out under a drunk piano.Real musicians like Keith Richards and Rod Stewart would be rolling in their graves."
87213,1,"The sorry, bad, and ugly","This has to be one of the worst playstation games I've ever played. I mean, I love my playstation and all the games that I own, but this one is going back. I've played the PC version of Rainbow Six before, and was pleased at the graphics, gameplay, and value level of the game. So I figured I would get the Dreamcast version since the manufactures claim it will be a direct port of the PC game. Instead I ended up getting the PSX version since the DC version wasn't availible. Let me sum up what Rainbow six is for the Playstation. Bad Graphics, Bad Gameplay, no multiplayer, no real value. It's boring and just, uh, plain bad. Stay way from it like the plague."
87219,1,Not a good buy for Android,"I downloaded this file to my Samsung Fascinate phone and the file just won't open. I tried reloading and nothing. I don't know if it works on an actual Kindle as I don't have one... yet. But for an Android, totally does not work."
87225,1,quite a disappointment,"I purchased Avril's 1st album for my 8 year old daughter - didn't expect much, but that record was wonderful. The sounds were interesting, her voice was well recorded, the songs were good and the playing was terrific. It was like a textbook on how to make an interesting new pop/rock record. This new record is so inferior that it makes me wonder about the inside story. The sounds are mediocre, the songs are poor, the performnaces by the guitar players are subaverage - not the same band. Even Avril's voice is not recorded the same way - and the creative uses of harmony and looping are not there. Sophomore slump or something else?"
87305,1,Watta letdown,"Had this been the band's debut, Frenzal would no doubt have been heralded as a force in the making. And rightly so. But coming as it did on the heels of the brilliant Meet The Family and the almost-as-brilliant Not So Tough Now, Camel is a major disappointment. There's some good stuff here (Do You Wanna Fight Me, We're Going Out Tonight, So Much Fun), but overall it's too inconsistent. One for Frenzal newcomers only. And if you can track it down, snaffle up a copy of Mongrel, a live album from Frenzal's Vans Warped tour of a couple of years back. It was released in Oz as a bonus disc with Family, and it's easily one of the best live pop/punk albums on the planet. Your ears will love you for it. Trust me."
87311,1,Broke today!!,I purchased this item in July and today the display screen is just blank!! Poor quality or some sort of manufacturing defect!
87361,1,Does not last!,"This toy appears to be good quality and is easy to use and my little boy enjoyed it until it stopped working...within less then a year of occasional use. Changing out the batteries did not prove to be helpful. It simply ""gave up the ghost"" and was ready for the trash bin. Very disappointing."
87371,1,FLAWED BY DESIGN!,"I have owned this piece of garbage for a few years now. The reason I had it for so long is that I haven't used it much, since it is a nightmare.The machine was poorly designed to begin with. The grinding plate brings everything to its center, where the speed is much lower and there are are just a few grinding teeth. You have to really struggle to get some juice.The feeding tube should guide the fruits/vegetables toward the outer part of the plate, and prevent them from accessing the center, which should not be visible through the feeding tube.It is practically impossible to get juice out of a carrot, celery stick, or anything of similar shape.Just watch this YouTube video and see for yourself. They cut short the part where the woman tries to run a carrot through the juicer, guess why?[...]"
87394,1,Lame Romeo.,"Johnny Rotten is rolling in his grave! Adam Nordmeyer is best known for his synth lines in the Fall Out Boy-esque band Crash Romeo. But did you also know that he switches styles very often? First he was a ska kid, then overnight he was a straight-edge hardcore boy, now hes a pop rocker! After he was mocked out of several bands he joined crash romeo. Luckily his parents are very rich and bail him out of any trouble he gets into, otherwise he couldnt provide for himself. He has long sideburns and a chubby pouch just above his beltline both of which help his stage presence. My band EPOCH SOLUTION came very close to sharing the trustkill label with them, but we turned them down because we are way too talented for idiots like the ones at trustkill.-Chris Buch"
87551,1,This book is not very good.,"Ms. Resnick's book seems too self-serving and isn't very detail oriented as it relates to how to get started in investing. After reading this book, I still felt lost. I would suggest another book."
87591,1,Would not play on my equipment,"This might be a great album, but because it's one of Sony's ""Super Audio"" CDs, I couldn't play it on my CD player or on my late model computers. Luckily, Amazon was happy to let me return it. ""Super Audio,"" however superior the sound quality might be, seems to me to be yet another one of Sony's ways of preventing buyers from copying music onto their computers or portable audio devices. These play-restricted types of CDs should be identified as such by Amazon and their third-party sellers."
87722,1,Are you kidding?,"Brassy is without the a doubt the absolute worst group i've had the misfortune to see ""perform"" on a professional stage. Absolutely talentless, the band attempts to get by on an odd, lame neo-hip hop, and of course, Muffin Spencer's name, and succeeds only in being a silly sideshow.I suppose if you enjoy hearing a shrill vocalist screaming the band's name incessantly on top of a 3rd rate Elastica ripoff, then maybe Brassy is for you. Anyone else hoping to hear anything the least bit original or interesting (or at least not annoying) in this genre should stick to Cibo Matto or Lucious Jackson. Brassy is an absolute mess."
87797,1,A Joke. Period,"There are too many falsehoods in this book to even start describing them, and the fact that relatively-responsible atheists have repudiated this piece of trash is telling in itself. Those paranoid about creationists ""forcing their views on others"" must realize that it is militant atheists, and not creationists, who are trying to use the law to silence Christian expression and to remove every trace of anything religious from public life."
87813,1,I should have listened to those two!,"Egads... I read the other reviews of this book, and thought it couldn't be THAT bad, plus the ETS book for the CS test doesn't offer explainations to the questions, so I gave it a shot. Trust me, they were right. I found errors in it after looking at it for 2 minutes. I'm returning the stupid thing immediately."
87836,1,Changed their product,I was re-buying this product after I ran out of my first batch. I used the frames for papercrafting but will not be purchasing them again. The older product allowed you to completely open the window flap by pulling apart two small glued spots but the new product has glued the window frame down completely and it is EXTREMELY hard to work with. It's probably fine if you are stuffing stiff photographs in them but I am printing pictures on my computer and making handmade cards with them with my own designs. My printed pictures are not stiff and do not go easily into their frames without damage. They need to go back to the old style. I also liked to emboss the frame but can not do that anymore unless I emboss the entire front of the card. It just doesn't work anymore. They look horrible. This company doesn't understand their market.
87840,1,My Last Reading of a JAK,"Why do I feel like the serpent in the Garden of Eden?... Sorry, I really liked ""Deep Waters"", but I probably won't buy another JAK unless I am stuck at an airport and I have read every other available Romance, Mystery or Thriller on the newsstand. I think I have made myself clear. It is time for me to find some new talented authors. Although I know I have some previously read titles of hers to review. Hopefully, they are better than this."
87857,1,Needs some kind of answer verification,"The first few chapters are pretty straightforward. The problems are relatively comparable to the examples they give in the chapter. Once you get past part 1, the problems are not straightforward, and rely on special tricks or knowledge that could not be gained from the actual chapter. I believe this book would actually be useful if it gave final solutions to odd problems, or some other verification that you're understanding the problems/equations. The matlab functions served as a guide to testing your solutions for part 1, but once you get to part 2 the trouble becomes setting up the equations properly, not the calculus involved."
87864,1,"Easy reading, seems factual, but no cigar!","The book deserves a place on the president's libraryof critics but it should be read with guarded optimism. There are a few things the author seems to misunderstand about our government.Unlike Britain, we like to bring new faces into our presidency every few years. It serves to refresh our minds and the oval office. Then we take great sport to pick on the president to see if he can stand up to the grind of it all. In Brirain, the royals are in for life and they stay amidst the critics. When the author cries foul at the notion of the president replaciing all the US Attorneys upon taking office, that's his right, he can replace every political appointee at will, for any or no reason.All in all, it was a fairly good book but nothing to write home about."
87950,1,Made in China?!,Mrs. May's should inform their customers where exactly their products are made and take a stand. I won't be buying any more of her products until further notice no matter how yummy they are. Do-no-harm and quality-control is a concept not understood in China. Totally frightening what they're getting away with.
87954,1,Burned by Ridata,"After I bought my MacBook Pro, which included an 8X double layer Super Drive, I lpurchased a set of Ridata 8X DL's. I immediately got error messages. I spent about an hour trying to get a clean burn. I tried varrying the size of the burn, the types of files, burning Mac only or Pc and Mac with no success. I used both the latest Roxio Toast program and the simpler Mac program. Nada. Then I put a Verbatim 4X Dl disk in the Mac and ""no problema"". The Verbatim disks worked with both programs. The Ridata would not even record. Not a very good buy!"
87956,1,waste of time,"This dvd consists of blurry camera scans of poorly printed art books. If you are looking for an overview of the female nude in painting, your time would be better spent going to your local library and looking at the same books yourself, instead of an out of focus camera doing it for you to a corny soundtrack of cliched music. I had hoped to see sharp detailed views of the original paintings instead of this amateurish attempt. Not worth it."
87976,1,Never would install.,Never could get this to install even after changing the DVDR drive for a DVDrom drive. UBIsoft needs to get it's act together. It is no good alienating paying customers to stop copying by others. If you pay for a product it should work.
87994,1,For the very young,"Wish this had a much better close up view so I could have seen it in more detail before I bought it. Took a chance and regret it - this is probably useful for 5 and under. After that, you have to get a real map."
87998,1,what are you doing Paul?,"Except for Father And Daughter, there are no melodies on this cd. Nothing is memorable. Paul Simon has written some of the best songs in the last 30 years, but this collection is devoid of new additions. Save your money."
88046,1,Planet of Crap!,"The worst of the Berserker books I've ever read, this novel barely has enough meat to work as a short story.The centerpiece of the book is a tournament where vaguely Norse warriors fight to honor the god ""Thorin"" and his right hand ""Mjolnir"", in classic Saberhagen allegory. However, the story instead chooses to follow a weakling who's dragged to the planet on a hunting trip and turns out to be the only one who'll lead the fight against the Berserkers....and that description is actually a lot more interesting than the book, which mills around, trying to find something interesting to do for about 200 pages or more, failing the entire way through. As a matter of fact, there was only one mild surprise in the entire story, and it was foreshadowed in the beginning. Go figure.If you're going to read a Berserker book, put this one at the bottom of your list, then burn the list before you get that far down, then burn it again, just to be sure."
88144,1,Horrible - do not stick properly,This product was a waste of money and I wouldn't recommend it. They fall right into the liter after they are first attached. Would not purchase again.
88157,1,Very Dissapointed,"When I came across this book and read the back panel I couldn't wait to read it! The story sucked me right in and I was glued for two days not wanting to put it down. There is no doubt the writer has a great way with words. However the closer and closer I got towards the end of the book though with absolutely nothing juicy happening (for ""revenge"")I started to get annoyed. For a 355 page book that had so much potential to be wrapped up in 9 pages that explain NOTHING I think was absolutely ridiculous, and I realize I'm not alone with my disappointment. I wish I would have checked into the disappointed reviews before I bought the book. I would not recommend the book to somebody else."
88207,1,Fair phone... but annoying at times,"I have had this phone for over a year now (multiple handsets as well). In general it has worked out ok. Every so often though (once a week), when you go to answer the phone it will lose contact with the base, and then it has to reacquire the base (takes about a minute). While that is happening, the caller just gets dead air and probably hangs up. Can be quite annoying, and it happens often enough to be a concern. The other complaint I have is that you have to traverse menus to adjust the volume on the handset. I liked the design and look of the phone, but I think I would rather have an ugly phone that works more reliably."
88225,1,Only for those who have time to spare,"This book is nothing but a time-waster. Characters have no names and the narrator is never clearly stated. The only thing that was clear was the meaning of the title. Other things, like the last chapter, are poorly done and leave saying ""huh, what was i reading?"" ."
88305,1,Disappointed,"I was disappointed when the first time I put the belt on it ripped! I would think that since it carried a more popular name, like ""Bally"" it would be made of a more superior material. Hey, this is only my personal experience. I wanted this because of the zipper. I have the onlder kind with the velcro and it hasn't ripped yet."
88379,1,Brutal Film,Brutal filmI just returned from watching this film and the only words that come to mind are:GraphicRealisticBrutalExtremeIf you are looking for a film for the shock value only this makes Cannibal Holocaust or Day of the Dead look like a walk in the park.The feel of the film is a direct copy of Gladiator both cinematically and musically. The violence begins almost from the beginning and doesn't end until the credits roll. I should add excessive graphic violence. ...
88430,1,Who's Next? More like Poo's Next!,"These guys are the worst of the worst when it comes to music. One, I've never seen them on MTV, and two, the songs are awful, radio unfriendly, and above all untalented. Like Baba O'Riley, which is just the same note over and over and something about a teenage wasteland. Whatever. And Won't Get Fooled Again is very radio and MTV unfriednly.And Behind Blue Eyes makes me infuriated. Why did they take a Limp Bizkit masterpiece and turn it into crap?Avoid this like the plague."
88478,1,Returning travel guide,"If there was ever a travel guide that was boring, this has to be it. Most guides have some type of color in them as well as better maps. I could see the pages easily tearing or getting worn on a trip. Tons of reading, but unable to quickly find necessary information. We really need a DK Eyewitness Guide for Costa Rica, maybe the DK guides are not as comprehensive, but it sure is easy to find information quickly."
88587,1,Last Man Was Last Chance,"David Balducci here proves the old saying that some writers only have one good book in them. Absolute Power was a knockout, I recommended it to everyone I knew. Following that, he published several disappointments but I kept hoping he'd find the old formula again.I put this book away with the marker on page 87. Enough is enough. The charactrs are wooden, the set ups preposterous and the action comicical. Balducci expects us to take everything about his character on faith, but gives no plausible reason why we should.I would love to see him try to diagram some of his tortured run on sentences. Where is the editing? Where is the restraint? Where is Stephen Hunter when you need him?"
88599,1,It's Sheryl with an S,"Funny how many of these diehard Crow fans can't even spell her name correctly.Radio-friendly, middle of the road roots rock for those who think that Shelby Lynne is too adventurous."
88671,1,Shabby,"The packaging of the DVD, is very cheap. Also my Bonus features did not play.This was like something you would pick-up off the the $5.00 sale rack, in a supermarket."
88686,1,Just don't buy this!,"The bag seemed good at first, but after less than a week. It started to fall apart. The strings fall off, holes opened up near the bottom. And I didn't put anything heavy in there... Just two small hand towels, jump rope, hand chalk, and a light knee brace. Just pay a little more and get a better bag."
88688,1,Not available for Kindle,"Contrary to what Amazon indicates when you do a general search for ""dictionary Kindle"" this dictionary cannot be purchased for a Kindle. Nor can any other unabridged dictionary. The Kindle is first and foremost for readers and those who read a lot find comprehensive dictionaries very valuable. In the Kindle users' guide they indicated you can buy and install other dictionaries but no unabridged dictionaries are available. I think it is false advertising. There are some specialized dictionaries, such as medical dictionaries but no general, comprehensive dictionaries."
88699,1,Panasonic MiniDV is useless!,"Although this camcorder is loaded with features, there is no software available to download videos. Windows cannot even recognize the unit as a capture device except for downloading of still photos, the only software that comes with the product. For that, one can just buy a digital still camera. For video, it is useless!"
88719,1,Problems with Vista 64 bit,"Works ok, but when selecting printer only default is shown. Also the program does not run well in Vista 64 bit."
88751,1,BRUTAL,"Despite the poor recommendations on this site, I bought this book because I ran out of AAMC practice tests to complete. Don't make the same mistake as me. There are typos, incorrect answers, and over-simplified tests (easier than the real test). Princeton Review should be embarrassed this book is still in print. I'm going to ask for my money back. Stick to the AAMC practice tests."
88795,1,Two years of delay for THIS ?,"Honneamise no Tsubasa is a superb show in itself. Sadly, you have to be aware that this DVD doesn't give it justice at all. The commentary track is a great addition, but the anamorphic transfert is *so bad* compared to the Japanese release (not to mention the lack of the new Japanese DD 5.1 track) that it's a shame from Manga to have made us waiting for two years and gratified us with such a poor video output. Boycott this until they put some new effort into it !"
88844,1,Deceptive selling practices - DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SELLER,"I ordered several HP 110 Tri-Color Inkjet Print Cartridge (CB304AN) ink cartridges. The seller ""OC Inkjet"" shipped remanufactured (read ""refilled"") third party cartridges and listed them as ""HP Compatible"" on the invoice. In addition, it took 9 days from the date of my order for the shipment to arrive and for me to discover this deception so I did not have time to order authentic products from a reputable seller before I needed them. DO NOT order from this deceptive, dishonest, disreputable seller. Be sure you are ordering from Amazon or another seller.UPDATE: After receiving a complaint regarding the substituted product, the seller did fully refund my order and offer an apology."
88851,1,"Scholarly, but had to put it away","This book is WAY too detailed for what I thought would be enjoyable reading--""social history"" in the title to me implied more of day-to-day life under the swastika, but I instead found myself wading through more than enough detail to fill a university-level course. While the work is exceptionally informative, it nonetheless is NOT intended for casual perusal. And once I found myself scanning rather than reading, I knew it was time to put it away--at least for now.What I did finish is no secret to anyone: not everything was as it seemed under Nazi rule--ordinary Germans still gave aid to domestic ""enemies"", highly visible social structures such as the churches were not silent on the issues, and the volk did not speak with one voice. Aycoberry just went overboard (for everyday readers) in describing it all."
88888,1,This was sooooo bad,"I mainly wanted to see this movie because of the location--I live in Raleigh, NC and the Outerbanks is truly one of the most beautiful places on this earth. However, the beauty of the location was overshadowed by the sheer awfulness of this movie. Predictable, schmatlzy, and just plain bad--I was p.o'ed that I wasted 1 hr 36 minutes of my life watching this crappy movie. I expected more from Lane and Geer, both seasoned actors. Admittedly, I'm not the demographic this movie targets, but come on, who could really believe this crap? Just say no and skip this one."
88893,1,The book is far superior,"This is a dreadful movie but the book was amazing, sweet and brilliant. The movie is nothing at all like the book. The essential parts of the story have been butchered beyond recognition and I wish I could erase it from my memory. Please don't watch this but read the book instead!!!"
88896,1,Does not work with 120GB Classic,My TV and IPOD settings were correct but could only get audio through TV. Does not work with video for the 120GB classic IPOD. Contacted seller with complaint and received no response. Don't bother with this item as description is WRONG.
88910,1,Do Not Buy This CD collection,Save your money and get a better selection. Disc 1 is identical to Disc 4 and the quality of all discs is awful. It sounds like someone put a microphone up to an old record player and put it onto CD.
88911,1,Big problem,"Basically, I just wanted to mention that it just ruined all of my work. I have used it on BLACK POLISHED granite tiles bought at RONA. After application the surface was no longer smooth and it no longer shines. It has a film on it. And my mistake was that I did not test it on some other surface first(even thought they recommend it) So, if I won't find way to fix the problem I'll have to remove all the tiles. I've tried different methods of applying it. Used rug, sponge and even sprayed it. Spraying was the worst because it leaves bubbles. Once the bubbles dry they solidify.So, if you want to use this product TEST IT FIRST.Maybe on non dark, non smooth surface it does the job. But not in my case."
89020,1,You get what you pay for...,"I bought this printer because I wanted high quality photo printing and I didn't need any of the bells and whistles that come with more expensive printers. It's a Canon, so I figured I could count on the photo quality. I was terribly disappointed though. I generally buy Staples brand photo paper for general photo printing, and it always worked fine with my Epson printer. But my first prints on this printer looked dull and muddy -- like I was looking at the images though a mild but annoying grey/brown haze. So I went out and bought Canon paper instead. The quality was somewhat improved, but still not what I had expected. So yes, I got a printer for under $30, but now to get even passably OK prints, I need to spend a fortune on Canon brand inks and paper. Not much of a bargain."
89062,1,Poor Customer Service,"Phone Receiver did not work when Phone arrived. It had a horrible feedback sound which made it useless. Customer Service told us we need to send the whole unit in. After sending the unit in and following up after 3 weeks they wanted to know the Tracking Number. We sent it regular mail w/o tracking number. Customer Service insisted on the tracking number. Anyways. Bottom line is that we need to wait another 4-6 weeks, but Customer Service can't locate our phone. Money spent. No Phone. Done with this company. Good products need good customer service. I consider this a bad product because I got bad customer service."
89092,1,Dissappointing,"I am a huge GH fan, but this was a huge dissappointment!!! Don't waste your time or money ordering this one, skip it!!"
89164,1,As a writer I think Lev makes a pretty good gardener,Pablum He's so cute in his prose it makes you want to kick the cat.
89165,1,30minutes wasted,"I received this as an xmas pressie and my copy was put straight into my xmas waste bin. From there it went straight to my local Oxfam shop. Would they dare to put it onto their shelves? Mindless dribble from an author who doesnt seem to realise that she is not the writer that she thinks she is. I would like to ask the reviewers who gave this 5 stars ""are you the author or do you know her?"""
89171,1,Not good,I ordered Bewild-Natural Bamboo Beaded Curtains. What I saw advertised is not what I received. The strings of beads were about an inch apart; not close together as shown. The staff was not very informative.
89237,1,What's with the sexy DVD boxcover?,"OK, I'm an idiot for thinking that the sexy DVD boxcover showing two beautiful oriental women entwined together had anything whatsoever to do with what was actually in this film. Whoever designed the cover knew that such an illustration would lead to people such as myself purchasing this DVD in the hopes that lesbian erotica was a key feature of this video.Instead, what I got was a boring cop-drama with very little girl/girl interaction and what amounted to a complete waste of my time and money. In summation: it's a mediocre video with an incredibly hot DVD cover illustration. You've been warned. Sadly, I was not."
89276,1,Made the signal WORSE!,"I returned this item, because it actually made my signal worse on the channels I could receive with it. And it also reduced the number of channels available."
89329,1,Watch Out.......Won't play in Region 1 (USA),"After buying over 600 movies in recent years this is the first time i got burned on a Region 2 Movie. Somehow i got fooled! Lesson learned, read the small print and watch who you buy from."
89403,1,OVER PRICED Crap with NO Guarantee,For MANY years I bought Wayfarers because they ARE stylish. ALL broke at the nose bridge. I still have six that broke that way. BUYERS BEWARE..!
89451,1,a deeply flawed text,"While an important contribution to the literature on the history of the Cold War, a shocking number of production errors marrs the text. The most agregious error is in Laura Nadar's essay in which she inadvertantly accuses Eric Wolf of stealing documents when he was in fact the recipient of such documents. Even the most sympathetic reader will eventually question the conclusions reached by the contributors"
89515,1,Does anyone LIVE like this?,"Seriously, the book is beautifully photographed and the rooms are very well designed if you like rooms where no one actually has to LIVE...I think from an purists' point of view, this is a great study of design but if you are looking for a book to give you actual, usable ideas for re-designing your condo space - get a different book. I regret buying it as I was looking for more than a visually stunning coffee table book (which it definitely qualifies as). I was looking for realistic design ideas.Each of the spaces looks like no one has or ever COULD live in them.But, if you have tons of money and no personal possessions, this might give you some useable ideas."
89549,1,Not a winning combination,"Like the other reviewer, Robert Dinger, I have really enjoyed Sam Llewellyn. I am also a great fan of Alistair MacLean's earlier works. If you expect a winning combination in THUNDERBOLT FROM NAVARONE, though, you will be sorely disappointed. The story was not captivating, the characters were not interesting. The cliff-hangers were paraded past like a sad Indiana Jones wanna-be. This is no successor for Alistair MacLean. Again, Sam Llewellyn's yacht racing mysteries are very enjoyable, especially if you're a Dick Francis fan, and I am looking forward to the next one of those."
89581,1,Sociology for Dummies,"If you are looking for a collection of unusual stories and pseudo-scientific tales to entertain your friends during the next party, this is the book you are looking for. But if you like real books, i.e. a collection of pages that constitutes a single, valuable, interesting object, then this is not for you. Some of the examples from Malcom Gladwell occupy pages and pages, for no reason. Each basic concept is repeated so many times giving the impression the author is talking to a dummy reader, not to a ""normal"" person. In conclusion, Malcom's book seems to be more a first draft than a finished work. The style is not consistent across chapters, and the connections between chapters and topics is weak."
89661,1,Blechhhh......,"Basically a 2 week recount of a drunken binge in the French Quarter after Katrina. Women probably want to avoid this as the author is clearly an egotistical mysogynist.The author at one point participates in looting then later on has the decency to assist the police when others are looting. Whatta guy.Many others lost their lives, families and homes during Katrina. Mr. Smallwood lost his ability to party in the French Quarter and was kind of enough to share his pain with the rest of the world through this sorry excuse for a book. Boo-hoo.Oh yeah...note to Mr. Smallwood. Christian Science is not the same thing as Scientology. Jeez, check your facts."
89780,1,Deja vu?,"Have we not been here before? Monks/priests on an isolated coastline, the usual suspects arrayed before us, a death in an isolated cottage. I'm devastated to say that I think this is the only book I've ever read when I actually couldn't have cared less what on earth was going on- in fact by the time I reached the end I'd actually forgotten how the story started. I have to say that the recent Reginald Hill books beat the last few P.D.James offerings hands down for 'literary' content."
89867,1,I Give Up!,"Okay, I tried ... I really did. But in the end I just couldn't finish this yawner of a novel. Accuse me of ""short-attention span-ism"" ... you may be right. But it's extremely rare that I give up on any book, especially something in the mystery/suspense genre. Yet after several attempts to trudge my way through ""The Bone Vault"" I had to put it away for good. I don't know who done it ... and I don't care."
89880,1,|2.5| Korn's new effort is effortless...,"I definently looked forward to Korn's new release, 'Take a Look in the Mirror'. I've always enjoyed their heavy grooves. Unfortunately, Korn's new effort is effortless. The material here is straight up pointless, formulatic and flat out boring. You'll find plenty of catchy grooves on this album to be sure, but once you've heard it once, you've heard it enough. Creativity is lacking, and it seems like they made this album in two days just so they can go all out in concerts. There's simply no passion or dedication in this release; only pointless, heavy ramblings. Pass on it, even if you are a Korn fan. |2.5|"
89926,1,Not worth the money,"I bought the mill to make sauces and mash potatoes. It looks good and well made on the surface, but has ridiculous design flaws. When you turn the mill, the knob unscrews no matter what you do, so that you have to constantly screw it back on while you are trying to grind the food. This makes it virtually unsuable. Not only that, but the blades do not gather up the food, so that you have to constantly feed the food into the blade. For such an expensive item to be this poorly designed is unconscionable. I then tried another one with the Bed, Bath, and Beyond label, $50 cheaper. The knob didn't screw off, but still the blades did not grind the food. I'm going to stick with a regular food processor and an old-fashioned hand potato masher. I'm fed up with food mills."
89986,1,Absolutely don't buy,"This is a very beautiful watch. When i saw it in the store i absolutely had to buy it. However, like Cinderella's beautiful carriage and gown disappeared, so to will it's beauty. By the second week the color of the leather had already started to fade. Thankfully, the rose gold facade hasn't worn of yet, probably because i stopped wearing it altogether. I still like the watch but i'll definitely have to spend about the same price i paid for it to get a good leather strap before i can wear it again"
89998,1,disturbing negative stereotypes of asians,"I've enjoyed a couple of the Dirk Pitt novels. Not exactly high literature, but fun in an 'over-the-top' sort of way. This one I put down after I was turned off by the anti-asian tone. It was difficult to know if he was talking about the Chinese bad guy or Chinese in general. His comment slamming Chinese music was the final straw. Unnecessary and stupid."
89999,1,Old wine in new bottle.,"After reading all the Cussler's Dirk Pitt stories, this one makes the story predictable. Unlike the stories like cyclops, I was able to predict what happens next with out having to peep at the later pages. I am not sure if this is because I read all of Cussler's novels and am able to catch his rhythm. Dirk is being made more and more invincible, which makes it more of a fantasy tale than fiction. As usual, a new comer will like the novel, but for someone who has already read enough of Cussler's novel, this will be a big big disappointment."
90015,1,The Cliche Holds True,"More than ever... the Book is Far Better than the movie. The movie was a bit disjointed and didn't really delve into some of what made these men tick. The complexities associated with feelings experienced by the men who raised the flag on Iwo Jima, survived and then went on a war bond tour cannot be done justice on film. Too much detail is missed."
90098,1,What a disappointment!,"Today I finally received my Cuisinart DBM-8 Supreme Grind Automatic Burr Mill. What a disappointment and waste of money! This small, nice looking and ""GREAT DEAL"" thing has not been able to grind coffee finely enough that I was using for my DeLonghi espresso machine. Even when I set up a mill on the finest grind, coffee was still too large, so that the water leaked through the coffee in just a few seconds. This mill is definitely not for lovers of espresso coffee."
90130,1,Controls very inaccurate,"I bought this as a gift for my husband and at first he loved it. Now however, after a few months of use the controls no longer work reliably. The main problem is with the quantity of coffee you are grinding. No matter what setting it is set at it grinds the same amount of coffee every time. It continues to grind until the whole container is full and that makes the coffee way too strong. I would never purchase this again. We had better luck with our old cheap blade grinder."
90131,1,My $10.00 grinder out performs this model,"I spent the extra money for the burr grinder.It's not worth it! The grind is very inconsistent and produces a great deal coffee""dust"" that clings and clumps to the plastic container.I'm going back to the simple blade grinder. Maybe I can use this for spices or herbs."
90181,1,WORST GAME EVER,This game is the worst game I have ever played. I thoght itwould be a cool game. The moves are too hard to do the game is toohard and worthless. I would give it negative 5 statrs if I could. NWO/WCW REVENGE is the best wrestling game. This game is a waste of money.
90230,1,Could have been better - especially given the price,"I was in Stuttgart when I found a German nail clipper for sale in a gift shop. It was a shocking $29 but since I was on vacation and in a pretty good mood, I examined it and tested it in the shop. It did such a good job that I bought one. It remains to this day in my night stand, unshared with my family. Feeling a little guilty, when I saw the Seki clipper at a tempting price, I pounced. Alas, the quality is about as good as a $3 clipper I recently bought and no where near as good a give-away clipper I keep in the bathroom. There must be a better clipper out there and I'll keep looking. This isn't the dream clipper I hoped for.nail clipper"
90280,1,Buyer Beware: CD-Rom does not work with windows XP,And you won't know it until you get it. I was depending on those tests. The book is ok so far.
90393,1,Impossible to Install,"Received game yesterday. Went into loop when disc 1 inserted.Could only stop by powering down. Tried disabling autoinsertion notification on CD drive and running setup.exe.System (Win98SE) said ""setup.exe not a valid win32 app.""Tried naked boot of win98 (run msconfig and eliminate runningautoexec.bat, config.sys and all the startup group items).Still says ""setup.exe not a valid win32 app.""Noted that the date on this setup.exe is 10/2/98 while thedate on the earlier Beyond Atlantis is 1/13/99. Why use anolder setup.exe? Dreamcatcher customer service no helpand no call back."
90462,1,"Dull, dumb","I don't particularly care for J. Lo. But I watched ""Enough"" on cable and I have to admit, it was pretty good. So, I gave ""Maid in Manhattan"" a try and thought maybe I'd have to become a fan of Miss Lo if the movie was good. It was stinkola. She is totally unbelievable in the role. There was no chemistry between her and Fiennes. The plot was dumb. It just did not hold my interest at all, it was tough to sit through the whole thing. I'm okay with preditable, sappy, dumb romantic comedies, but this was just plain boring. I was very disappointed. I think J. Lo is really an ok actress with some potential for making decent and entertaining films, but this isn't one of them."
90471,1,Oh a little balance please...,"Hard to believe the reviews praising this worthless rag. For me, the jokes arent funny save one or two, the story is incredibly stupid, and unbelievable, the acting is phoned in (Will Smith,shame on you.Your better than this), and most of all the editing sucks.Other than that I guess its a great movie.Bay turned in great works with ""Armageddon"",and ""Pearl Harbor"",but this one is a real stinker."
90485,1,A Little Flat,"I am usually a huge Nora Roberts fan, but this one fell a little flat. I appreciate an author who has a talent for descriptive writing, and can make you almost ""feel"" the setting of the book. That is one of my favorite things about Nora Roberts. However, has anyone else besides me noticed that many sentences in the book start with the word ""and""? It's starting to drive me crazy! Enough already!!"
90527,1,I wanted to like it... but I couldn't,This book was not really bad but it was not good. These characters for all they are supposed to be logical and efficient were just emotional basket cases. I couldn't empathize with them. Good luck finding good literature.
90573,1,It's a renter,"Don't waste your money on this one. I love a good sci-fi flick and I love a good suspense/horror flick. This one tried to do both and unfortunately came up 0 for 2. If you are a budding film special effects student and want to see how a couple million can be blown on special effects for an otherwise worthless film, go rent this. Otherwise, save your money and watch something else..."
90655,1,Waste of Money. Waste of Time,"""[A] rich, vast, and slyly comedic novel that leaves you laughing and weeping...Read and rejoice.""The above quote by ""Malachy McCourt"" (whoever the heck that is), printed on the front cover of the book, is an absolute lie. Any eight year old could write a better book than this. There were about 20 different times that I was about to just throw this stupid book away, but I pressed on and read just to see if old Malachy (what a name) was right. He wasn't. Please don't waste your time with it. If I can spare just one person the burden of this stupid book, I'll feel a little better. If you're looking for a good soul searching book, read ""Ishmael"" by Daniel Quinn."

90741,1,"Don't Sweat the Small Stuff for Teens? More like ""2 common sense tips with 100 examples""","This may be one of the worst self-help/advice books out there. After reading this book the only ""tips"" I got out of it are : When your mad your not happy, when your mad you can make bad decisions, prioritize your tasks.... anyone with a HINT of common sense should be able to know those tips. The fact that this book had the most stupid tips did not get me as mad as how the author wasted hundreds of pages. Each chapter is only about 1-3 pages long and even that is too long. Each chapter focuses on one tip, they state the tip and give one of the most corny/ fake examples they claim to be real. It would've been much better if they listed the title of each chapter in a list and gave it to you instead of making you buy this whole book"
90828,1,"useless, useless, useless","Pity I didn't read the reviews here before buying this book. You will not learn anything from this book unless you are already at the level where you can ""create dynamic applications"" with flash mx. So what's the point of the book?!"
90845,1,Snow White is Racist!,"In addition to Disney overemphasizing beauty and making fun of short people, Snow White is racist!!! Where are all the colored folks in this fairy tale? As a proud Asian, I am insulted that my daughters can find no one who looks like themselves! Why couldn't Snow White have been Asian? Then they could have renamed the story SNOW YELLOW!!! (BTW, this review is all tongue in cheek. I'm just making fun of those people using modern day political correctness to judge a movie that's 75 years old)."
90879,1,this album sucks,"please listen 2 me and don't buy this cd. i have buy it and now i just feel bad after listen to it. the reason that it bad is because christina write most the songs' lyrics. her writing is bad as well as the beat of the songs. i'm not being criticism but she should let the lyric to lyricists. although there are some good like &amp;quot;can't hold us down&amp;quot; &amp;quot;beautiful&amp;quot; &amp;quot;impossible&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;dirrty&amp;quot; but overall the bad outweight the good. if you bought this cd, i would feel sorry for you."
90946,1,"Disappointed, little dialogue on pages!","I was very disappointed in this book. I purchased it as an introduction of our Constitutional history for my 6 yr. old. It is little more than a picture book with one line of dialogue on each page. Dealing with a 6 yr. old who is always asking why and inquistive-normal for six yrs., this book could have expended thru out on the topic with more substance. Geared more for childrens in lower age of age catagory listed.Savanna"
90955,1,Toiltet Paper,"I checked this book out from the library to see if it was worth buying. Thankfully that's what I did. This book isn't even worth a Fodor's backcover. Totally, Totally worthless. If you like droning verbage buy the book. If you want to learn about Sushi or how to make it move on down the road. In all the years with Amazon this is the first time I have ever given a review less than 3 stars and even that was rare until now. This book is good for carrying in your backpack into the mountains if you need emergency wipe your lower backside paper. Save your money!"
90959,1,Crafty Hands,"Musicianship is top notch, production is kind of sterile, compositions are not overly memorable. Give it a try if you can find it cheap, but it's far from essential listening."
90975,1,Another badly produced album spoils a great artist,"Like Williams' other recent CD, RED DIRT, this is so badly produced, you have a hard time hearing some of the lyrics--which are the whole point of the exercise. Massively loud, bad guitar work hammers the rest of the mix. (Surprise: The guitarist did dual duty as the ""producer"" of this mess.) Andre Williams needs to dump these clowns and get the kind of professional production he enjoyed in the 1950s."
90988,1,unstructured,"this book it's all over the place, it lacks structure, how are you suppose to follow the process of self hypnosis if there is no structure, this book should be re-edited."
91016,1,Don't waste your money,If I could give zero (0) stars I would. I finished this in about an hour. The plot was thin to non-existent. No characters. Just an alternative timeline with very little to no background support. Save you money and spend it on a better alternate history book.
91046,1,disapointed,"Expected multi color or at least colorful it was black and plastic. First time using your services, will probably be my last as well"
91065,1,Additional Post Series Finale Episodes,i am thinking this is not a divided Season 4 set but the 2 additional episodes that have been taped post-Season 4. It will probably be a 2-hr movie event although an air date has yet to be scheduled by Fox.
91147,1,Didn't Enjoy This Book,"I really didn't enjoy this book. The only things I really liked about this book were the sexual chemistry between the characters and that the little boy was adorable. With that exception, I found the story and the relationship lacking. She also used what I believe was Jamaican dialect through too much of the book, too often, and it lost me. Using the dialect made it hard to follow, those parts could have been key in drawing me into the book, but it didn't. Lastly, Ms. Esdaile makes attempts to make the characters more ""hip"" by using slang, which she has done in other novels too, and it just didn't work for me. This book may work for some, but it just doesn't for me.This was my second or third attempt at reading Ms. Esdaile and I finally gave her up after reading this book, which is a shame since she sets most of her books in Philadelphia and it's always nice to read stories set in towns I'm familiar with."
91163,1,Product needs to be recalled. Cord overheated and melted!,"I have a pair of these heaters I was sent as a warranty replacement for another set of holmes heaters that went out after a year and a half on the 5 year warranty. I used them for about 2 months in the same area and one morning I checked the cord on one of them to discover it had melted, turned black and was basically stuck to the extension cord. It was also leaking oil out the back of the unit. Luckily, the only thing damaged was the unit itself and the extension cord. And I know it is not the extension cord being too small in gauge to handle the load. These are 3 prong grounded heavy duty extension cords rated for much higher watts than the heater itself. And the extension cord was not hot at all. Just the unit.These heaters need to be recalled just like thier earlier model for fire hazard!"
91177,1,So Frustrating!,"The concept of this book is wonderful, the words and pictures fabulous. But the buttons will not stay untangled and they are frustrating to me, a 34-year-old woman...my two year old doesn't even try anymore. I do keep this book up out of his reach, but even when I read it the ribbons tangle up. I would never buy this book again."
91205,1,Bad Timing DVD,"Mail service by the seller was fine, but the DVD did not work. We tried it in several players, but to no avail. When I emailed the seller, they said they would give me a credit and just keep the DVD. Why should I keep a DVD that does not play? Wasted postage, but what else can they do. And I still don't have the movie I wanted...."
91394,1,very disappointing,"I read the first book and was delighted. So I immediately rushed to get the second one when it got out. But what a let-down. Obviously, Humphreys had said everything he had to say in the first book, and so the second volume is boring, repetitive and thoroughly disappointing."
91402,1,Barbie you dropped the ball on this one,"My girls(7&4) look forward to every new Barbie movie & we have them all! This was a rushed bunch of junk. The movies were getting Sooo good for a while Island Princess, Thumbalina, Princess & The Pauper even I liked watching them. Please get it together your viewers are young & they miss the singing & princess's."
91406,1,Not appropriate for the age it was intended,This book contained questionable material that may be okay for older audiences. It should not be marketed to 10-12 year olds.
91440,1,Little of everything,"Not a good book if you do not know XML. Book does not go into detail explaining XML.(eg. different types of entities, DTDs; the ""why"" behind it ? )If you already know XML then it is provides some decent information about incorporating XML into your VB projects. Although that info is also available to a very large extent for free on internet.I returned the book."
91445,1,dog sling,Nothing against the seller everthing as promised. My problem is the dog won't let me carry him in it. He loves to be held but not in this thing/sling! The sling is very confining so I think that is what he dislikes.
91662,1,A dark novel left to wander through a Indians life.,"A story of a man named Abel. His reintroduction to his native life, the rebellion on society, murder, the finding of self, and continued race to find real meaning in life. This is all told through the medium of dreams, visions, and realities making this book very hard to follow or understand the meaning that the author is trying to convey."
91678,1,"Where's the ""-1"" rating??","I used a free Blockbuster coupon on this movie and still feel ripped off--that's how bad this movie was.I'm not much for politics in my movies. That said, I didn't mind the portrayals of liberals picketing, etc., I just tuned them out. They didn't bother me as they seemed to have bothered some of the folks reviewing this dog. This is just a poorly-done movie. The book must be better.Clive Owen just can't act; he dragged us through what little potential his casting offered, into the dreary discussiont of ""is there anything on HBO tonight?"". The plot was thin, and the ending somewhat ""inconclusive"". Most folks like a cut and dried ""this is what happened"" ending. That wasn't my objection. There wasn't enough of a storyline, coupled with high school drama-class poor acting, redundant violence, and a sorry dialogue.I want my free coupon back. How do I recover 2 hours?"
91726,1,Angry at split,"I am a huge fan of Bleach i would watch it every day if i didnt have to pay bills and work. I am slowly buying all the box sets but the splitting of season 6 is worse than the season 4 split. at least i was able to buy both parts of season 4 at the same time, but ive yet to see the second half of season 6 for say anywhere. season 7 seems to be sold whole but i dont want to buy it until i can get the complete season 6. if anyone knows where i can get it please email me at howitzerhunter@yahoo.com subject bleach. ive looked at the viz site and funimation but i havent found it. thank you for any help in finding it"
91786,1,Who Dunnit? Who Cares? Miserable Mystery,"This is most definitely the worst mystery novel I have ever read. The characters are not two-dimentional--but one-dimentional. You will not care about anyone. There is also too much padding of incidental material, and enough red herrings to stock a Shanghai fish market. Though the lead character is supposedly gay, there is only a token gay content. He might as well be a Buddist missionary. The hero and his lover share only a Jewish ceremonial meal, all other forms of intimacy in their relationship seems to have vanished. We read mystery novels to get pleasure in discovering who dunnit before the detectives. It is impossilbe to do this when essential information is not revealed to the reader until after the culprit is caught. I feel I have wasted my time here. With an eternity of reading ahead of you, the time would still be too short to bother with this one. Read Wharton's Ethan Frome instead."
91793,1,Family Reunion Not,I didn't care for the movie at all. There was not humor in it at all. Just stupid comments.
91922,1,THis is NOT Judas Priest give ME a minus star!,"Ive been a fan for 20years, since the British steele album debuted, this is not Judas Priest. Every one can say, its awesome, its great but you know damn well it sucks. The chords are no better then a garage band and after the superb album Tipton put out on his own he should be ashamed of himself. Ripper is nothing great and his voice in the song(s) just prove he cannot create good vocals on his own. LIVE he is excellent. Please people take it from a guy who has followed Judas Priest for 20 or more years. This is not the Priest I remember, and its one I want to forget!!!! THe worst album ever put out by Priest. End of story and stop with ""its the BEST"" because that proves you DO NOT UNDERSTAND the band called Judas Priest. Your just on the band wagon."
91929,1,Not the best hay..,This is not the best hay for your pet. Its coarse and yellow and far from fresh. my guinea pigs only really eat the parts of the hay that kind of look like flowers or wheat or something. I bought it because I ran short and had to get something cheap and fast. Its only good to hold your pets over until you can get something better.
91982,1,These flowers wilted before they broke,"Here, an interesting idea is hamstrung by glacial pacing and Bill Murray's hangdog expression - which never varies throughout the film. By the end of the film, it doesn't matter if Don finds the mother of his son, or if there really is a son to begin with; but you wish there was some sort of payoff to reward you for investing 100 minutes of your time."
91989,1,Maybe I got a bad batch.,"Well I got it and immediately went to use it.. a bunch of gunk came out. Kinda like if you dont shake ketchup, but it was an EXAGGERATED amount. Like 2 tablespoons. (Is it supposed to be brown, btw?) So I squished it around a bit but there was no way to get it to mesh together. He didnt want the treat I gave him , he kept trying to get a different one. Then last night I heard him gargling and he threw up weird brownish liquid. Darker than the NutriStat. He hasnt really been acting weird but Ill monitor for a few days. :/I wonder why my dog canned it on day 3 but everyone else loved it? And was mine defective?"
92047,1,Bad Bad Bad,"This movie is horrible. I hated every minute of it. Being an avid science fiction fan i had high hopes for this film, but was horribly let down. Skip this one altogether."
92066,1,HAHAHAHAHA,What a craptastic film. HAHAHAHAHAHA. It sucks so bad I can't stop laughing at it. This could be the worst film I ever saw. What the hell? Did it just go to black and white for that seen. What the hell? I can't tell if this is a color film or not. WHAT THE HELL?!
92151,1,Aerogarden Gourmet Herb Seed Kit - very disappointing results.,"This is my fourth AeroGarden kit and I am very disappointed in the quality of the kit. Only 4 of the seed pods have sprouted, leaving 3 not growing. The sprouting plants, 2 types of basil, 1 dill, and 1 mint, are growing very slowly and are very spindlyAeroGarden 0001-00Z Gourmet Herb Seed Kit. We always clean out our Aerogarden before planting a new kit. I bought this in August and I am going do have to remove the plants early, and start in again. I think this is an out-of-date kit. I would not recommend this product."
92176,1,Unwatchable,"Usually with my expectations lowered, based on the bad reviews on IMDB, I can enjoy movies like this. Not this time. The movie has nice disaster special effects, but the story is terrible. It was so bad that I turned it off after an hour.There is nothing worthwhile to enjoy. Forget about the poor science, its just a painfully bad movie."
92182,1,Bad Science Meets Worse Script,"The Day After Tomorrow (TDAT) reminds me of an empty-headed, cheeky blonde: nice to look at, but vapid. TDAT combines bad science with a ridiculous script. The scene with escaped wolves threatening the protagonists on a ship that has washed up on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan is typical, over-the-top, silly dreck. Nauseating groaners permeate this radical environmentalist dream such as after half of the US is destroyed with -150 degree cold descending from the upper atmosphere, an astronaut says in all seriousness, ""The air seems clearer.""TDAT only redeeming quality is its eye-popping special effects. The tornados decimating LA are spectacular. The NYC flood satisfies all who question Manhattan's cultural superiority. Unfortunately, all this eye candy isn't enough to rescue this stinker."
92225,1,Mike Trout's Cycling is less than Awe-inspiring!,"Even though I am a fan of Focus on the Family, and Mike Trout was the co-host of the broadcast when I read this book, I found it did not hold my attention. His descriptions of the places he stopped could have been enlarged, as well as the people he met and the sights he saw. He was accompanied by his son in law, and planned the coast to coast route which was not necessarily the easiest, but one which passed through Colorado, home of Focus on the Family.I agree that this could have been a full length magazine article instead of a book and certainly I would encourage readers to borrow it or check it out of the library. It is not a keeper in my opinion. Sorry Mike, I liked you as co-host, but as author, well, you are just so so."
92250,1,Canon i960 - -Awful -,"This is by far one of the worst purchases I've made...not necessarily Amazon's fault, but not a good printer!! Barely 8 months of mild usage and I have nothing but feed problems....it either does not feed paper or it feeds several sheets at once. Needless to say, I've wasted alot of photo grade paper!! I guess I have an extra boat anchor now."
92279,1,THIS PAGE IS WRONG.,"If you are buying this DVD on Amazon because availability says download now, DON'TThis software is not available for download! I purchased it; called support 3 times before I finally got an answer that the page is wrong. PLUS they refused to give me a refund, because it is NON-refundable. They make a mistake and the customer eats the cost...."
92337,1,No car keys.,"How freak'n obvious is it to make this large enough for at least one car key? They say 3 keys, ya maybe keys for luggage locks. It won't even fit one car key. The spec says 6 inches long, but is not representative of the sorts of keys it can hold. I need a place to store my car key while I surf. This missed the point."
92402,1,No Start,"I dont like writing poor reviews and this is the first one I have ever written. My wife left the key on in her 2005 Stratus all night and ran down the battery. What an opertunity to show her my new Wagan power domeJump start in action. Freshly charged for 34 hrs and ready to go. Wrong!Hooked it up, Hit the starter on the Dodge and all I got was click click click click. No start. What was wrong?? I checked it again, and again. Still nothing but clicking. The Power Dome was trying really hard but no luck. I got out my jumper cables and hooked them to my old 1994 chevy pick up and the Stratus took off Zoom Zoom, Zoom. No problem. To say the least I was shocked. The only thing I could think of was the cables on the Wagan are not strong enough to carry the load, I have read in other reviews complaints about the cable connectors. Some even have replaced them because of brakage. If any one has any sugestions what to do Im all ears. Sorry my review was not a good one."
92409,1,AWFUL! AWFUL! AWFUL! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!,"I have read over 10 Java books, and this is just miserable. It might be fine for teenagers looking to make scrolling tickers, but no serious programmer could possibly derive anything useful from it.Any O'Reilly or SunSoft books would be much better.Written by a zillion authors, the editors did not take the time to integrate the different chapters. Rambling, unfocused, and miserable. Do not buy."
92494,1,everclear -- what's wrong with music today,"neo-whinyboy rock. no one cares about the ""scared white boy in a black neighborhood."" they play the same three chords over and over. They're not quite as bad as Third Eye Blind, but they're still a sign of the worst of today's popular (read: Alternative -- WHAT ALTERNATIVE?!) music."
92567,1,2 Out Of 3 Ain't Bad,"I purchased this DVD at Wal-Mart for $5 dollars -- not a bad price for 3 movies.However, to clarify, THE TED BUNDY STORY is the only ""movie"" in the set. The other features are a 2-hour documentary on the Manson Family murders (VERY detailed and very entertaining), as well as a 2-hour segment of the A&E; series, THE PROSECUTERS titled THE BONEYARD, which was nothing more than re-enactments of the actual case. I found this 3rd feature to be the least entertaining and most cumbersome to watch.But overall, not bad for a $5 price tag."
92575,1,Give Me Something To Believe In,"""I'm a total skeptic,"" Drosnin states near the end of The Bible Code. But if anything, he seems in need of a healthy dose of skepticism. He's often guilty of forcing the puzzle to make it fit. In fact, Drosnin--a self-proclaimed atheist--appears to be formulating his own secular religion.It's often been noted that our beliefs tend to reflect our technology. Where once we believed in angels, we now believe in aliens. Where we once believed in divinely-inspired scriptures, now Drosnin gives us the Bible code, prophesies penned by helpful extraterrestrials, accessible only by computer. Not to put too fine a point on it: the ""code"" is pseudo-intellectual twaddle. Even an amatuer statistician could discover that, and some have, proving that you can find the same sort of ""predictions"" in any book you care to pick up.If you must read this book I urge you to read some of the criticism of it, too, since its basic premise is all too easily dismissed."
92589,1,Sensor Fails When Bulb Burns Out,"Like the previous reviewer, the sensor on all three of my motion lights failed when the bulb burned out. I was using the correct type and wattage bulbs as instructed by the manufacturer."
92624,1,not worth the money,when i bought this gun i was expecting a gun that wasn't the best but better unfortenely i just got bad. on the first airsoft battle i found out a 20 dollar pump gun had better accuracy and range and at 80 feet you have to aim at there feet cause it curves the rounds like a stunt airplane strait up.now the gun its self i mad farly good plastic but you put the gun together in pieces that are held together by 3 screws that loosen often and the orange tip literally falls rite off the barrel and it just happens to be the front site nor are there mounting rails for a scope.so in the end don't buy this GUN!!!!!!!
92669,1,WORST BOOK I HAVE EVER READ,"I wonder how the author got this published? Touted as a book that will give you insight into the auto industry etc etc actually you are given way too much insight in the mind of a bitter, self absorbed author. Nobody likes the author as much as the author does."
92676,1,"Don't buy this book, just use common sense.","I agree with another review posted above-- don't waste your money on this book. I was looking for concrete, real things to do with my preschooler. The book suggests things like keeping a candle on your table and lighting it, then blowing it out, after each child says a prayer before every meal. I can't see how that's sharing the Catholic faith, nor does it seem practical. It also suggests things like taking your child to church, teaching them the sign of the cross, and praying with them.... all of which are common sense to most parents."
92690,1,Meh,I really hoped these would be all that people said they would be but to be honest I didn't notice any difference. The fingers also were quite long. If you have long fingers that's great.
92743,1,Magellan should stop selling this product until...,"it fixes its accuracy problems. After loading my Meridian Platinum with a map of the Hawaiian island chain, I eagerly looked forward to using my GPS on vacation. Unfortunately I found it to be consistently off by a few hundred yards. After emailing Magellan to find out what I could do they replied:""Mr. ******,The Topo software does have the error of sometimes will place you off your course. Unfortunately, we do not have a date on when an update will be available."" (sic)I had to remove the memory card and rely on just the basemap as it was annoying to be constantly off course. Don' think I will be loading up maps to climb mountains!To Magellan: this is a BUG, and a major one, please fix it before selling anymore units"
92761,1,color sick,"I am highly disappointed in this item. First it does not anything like the pictures. The colors are way different(think florescent) and just gross looking. The shower curtain is completely sheer plastic that you can see through (I would not have bought). Even the paisley print is different, it is not detailed as in the picture but large and kid like they are also way more spaced apart from each other leaving the majority of the shower curtain just plain clear plastic. Not happy, I would return it if it were worth the shipping to return. Wasted $26"
92796,1,DVD's Skip,I ordered 3 dvd's from amazon and all 3 of them skipped and got stuck and I had to restart them.
92801,1,Nonsense,"Raunch culture nonsense. Subjectivity and emotionalism in place of logic and fact-based analysis. This is the new face of western feminism. Oh, wait, this has been the face of western feminism for the past 20 years!In some parts of the world, 12 year old girls are being brutalized by fascist theocracies and treated like chattel. But let's ignore that and listen to a bunch of entitled American women whine like pre-schoolers.Blech.Here's a description of the western feminist: a woman who demands that she be paid the same wage as a man, but expects the man to pay for dinner. ""Equality when it's convenient for me, chivalry when it's convenient for me.""A message to Valenti et. al: It's not going to be so easy to fool us anymore. Gird your loins and get ready for battle. It's going to be a good one."
92912,1,Hoyle's little money maker,"Boardroom:Suit A: How can we rake in lots of extra dollars from unsuspecting gamers?Suit B: I Know, lets change the year and the box, throw in some different backgrounds and sell it.Suit A: Brilliant! why did we not think of that last year?Suit B: We did.Suit A: Did we? OK lets roll with it."
92934,1,Don't buy them,"I am amazed that all these so-called health foods will add artery-clogging ""palm kernel oil"" as an ingredient. Don't buy anything with palm kernel oil, cocoa butter, and anything hydrogenated!! No matter how many ""organic"" things are added to it.For many years now, it has been established that palmitic acid carbon atoms increase the risk of coronary heart disease. The World Health Organization in its report states there is convincing evidence that palmitic oil consumption contributes to an increased risk of developing of cardiovascular diseases."
93018,1,Don't buy this,The radio arrived and did not work. Totally dead. Don't waste your time and money on it!
93047,1,Lacking Continuity with Orson Bean fims!?,"If you enjoyed the Hobbit then you will probably be disappointed with this as the 2nd in the animated series (3 Total). It is over stylized with a mix of animation and live action background and just seems really over-produced because it is the namesake.The HobbitandThe Return of the Kingare consistent and both very entertaining, but unless you are looking to just complete your collection this movie is not really worth the price unless you are buying a WELL USED copy.As a side note, if you have children both the Hobbit and Return of the King are fine for them to watch as tales of morality, but this film is a bit more violent and graphic in its depictions of gore. It also attempts to 'frighten' the audience more with flashes, bangs, and dark characters causing mayhem. Don't know if Orson Bean is still living, but he needs to make a Lord of the Rings film to make up for this mess of a film."
93048,1,What was that??,"Yes, it was made in 1978 with a newer film type, but what happend to the ring?Where did merry and pippin go, where did frodo and sam go?? It just stopped....nothing more than that, if you didnt read the books than you would be sooo lost. And Aragorn and Boromir would you please put on some pants!"
93130,1,Terrible!,"Try some of the earlier, more psychedelic Pink Floyd instead. This is just boring, overblown, pessimistic prog rock. Definitely not the classic people say it is!"
93141,1,Dissapointed Floyd fan,I've been a Pink Floyd fan for 40+ years and was excited about this release after reading reviews. Nothing earth shattering in the remix and the live version leaves a lot to be desired.
93235,1,???,"First, I don't think this is OZZY's best live album. Speak of the Devil/Just say OZZY are what I think are. Ozzy is a little flat threw this entire album but the crowds energy makes up for it. My favorite song is ""Bark at the Moon."" Second ""Paranoid."" Least ""almost every thing else.""I think this album was released at the worst time ever. Because of every thing that was going on people were getting tired of him and his family.Anyway, this is a decent live album worth a try if your a fan. If your new on the Ozzy seen you should listen to Tribute or Live & LOUD first. Well Im done typing so Bye.O and one more thing if you think you are an Ozzy fan just because you watched the show.....YOUR WRONG!!"
93307,1,Everyday Black Man,"In an interest to follow the career of the OLD SPICE MAN. I choose this movie. It was interesting and I did enjoy watching it. I think I will more use it to compare his acting progress as he continues to move up in his acting career. That was the reason for my purchase as well as the reason to watch it more times. All and all though, it was a pretty good film for a one time watch."
93338,1,Doesn't work at high volume.,"After finding impressive online reviews, I bought my Logi...Z-3i speakers almost a month back. However, I paid only 30 dollars, I am completely dissatisfied by the fact that break down at max volume. Soon, they will be dispatched back to Amazon. However, I am not sure whether its only me who received this defective unit or is it a widespread defect. I used them with my Dell laptop and checked all the connections, wires, and my laptop but the problem seems to reside with the speakers. So be careful!!"
93398,1,Worst I've ever owned,"This thing really is awful. It's incredibly temperamental - it'll only play if the disk is absolutely pristine. The dvd's that I own seem to do well, but about 2 out of 3 disks I rent (or get through Netflix) refuse to play. The picture seizes up, or the sound keeps going while the screen turns black, or the whole thing just stops. Also, the remote control is ludicrous with its teeny tiny buttons, and all of them placed nonsensically - not at all user-friendly or intuitive.I know you get what you pay for, but the thing should at least work half the time, don't you think? Save your money, don't buy this machine."
93405,1,Falls Flat,"This collection just doesn't live up to Pugilist At Rest. I hate to say it but the pattern is one of decline. Hopefully, Jones will will get another visit from the muse and reinvigorate his prose. Still, there is no excuse for the phony heart and lackluster prose in this new collection."
93410,1,Ick,"Yes, go get some Calculus textbooks! Or is there a ""Calculus for Dummies"" out there? Some explanations for the solutions would have been very nice."
93416,1,bubble foot bath,The foot bath makes a mess with the water and does not keep the water warm. A lot more hassel than it is worth. Sorry I spent my money on it.
93590,1,50/50,Movie got off to a strong start...the young lincoln becoming a vampire slayer...second half intertwining his presidency with the vampires was week
93609,1,total crap,"Take everything you know about Abraham Lincoln and discard all of it, surround him with 21st century douchebags, add in some painfully cliche vampire tropes, and that's the basic premise. There was so much potential here. If it would have actually been Abraham Lincoln as a vampire hunter it would have been awesome. but it's not. it's not abraham lincoln. it's just some dude. I can't even waste any more energy giving this a proper review, it's jut not worth it."
93641,1,er.........,"wats up with the covers? liberty x, billy, atomic kitten? still im sure the rest of the album is ok!"
93781,1,dont waste your time,All of the information that is in this book can be very easily found online for free and easier then looking it up with this book
93826,1,"LOVE this movie, but the digital copy is a scam!!! Does NOT work with Apple!","My 18 month old daughter is absolutley obsessed with this movie! It's so cute! I was so excited to find the blu ray with digital copy, but once I opened the package I learned it's a web based digital copy and only mentions it inside that it's NOT Apple compatible. I am very disappointed that we can't load it onto our ipad like every other digital copy."
93839,1,My key got stuck,"There are a number of design flaws with this key hider. The one that just took me ten minutes to solve is my house key got stuck inside the unit and I couldn't extricate it. Why? Two light foam pads line the inside of the key holder, presumably so some one shaking the unit won't hear a key knocking around inside. However, that same foam also prevents the key from sliding out. If I'd had tweezers, it would have been fairly easy to do; alas, the tweezers were in the house... In my battle to get the key out, I managed to reset the lock combo. Now I can't close it. And of course I no longer have instructions on how to reset the combo. Too bad. I had high expectations for this thing -- I liked the magnet and the combo factor, even though I did worry about the plastic construction of it in terms of ""force-open-ability."""
93842,1,Stor A Key Flawed,"This is my second Access Point Stor-A-KeyProblem is the RESET dial is difficult to line up with the combination line.That is why they sent me a second one. Same problem only this time it was compoundedby me inadvertently setting a combination without knowing it while messing with the dials.Since I don't know the number combination, I can't change it. I would rate this devicea P.O.S."
93990,1,WTF Over,"""Please please me"" by not buying or listening to this collection of silly rap and hip-hop songs. Well-dressed white guys can't rap!!!"
94100,1,Bad quality,"The adjustable cable is too big for the door knob, I adjusted the cable and still too big. If you pull the cable a little hard, it will come out. From 1 to 5 I'll give it a 1. I'm not satisfied with the product, Could have gotten something better for a few dollars more.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000GTOUJ2/ref=cm_cr_rev_prod_title"
94120,1,A waste of time for people who haven't made it yet,"I was really looking forward to this book. It's jacket and description are exactly what I'm looking for. However, this is just a storybook about a guy with strangely many wealthy, financially successful and oddly close friends who all have something in common: They take their businesses and careers and nest-egg parachutes and jump ever so lightly into the real world momentarily, and then use their extensive rich-friend networks and executive leadership resumes to capitalize on ""the experience"". Must be nice to have so much and then leave, knowing it's still there when/if something goes wrong with the Volvo. How do we, the middle-class people ... find purpose in this world without trekking through the Amazon (no offense) on sabbatical? This book doesn't even come close to an answer.I suggest Gregg Levoy's ""Callings..."" as a more appropriate guide to those interested in what Albion claims to offer."
94124,1,Feel Bad for Dissing a Classic,"As an adult, I liked the story - but don't think it's appropriate for a child. I think most children would conclude that wolves are evil and scary (the illustrations of the wolf are certainly scary). Since I live a stone's throw from wolf country, this book is probably not the best bedtime reading for my child. Sent it back."
94176,1,Garbage,"I'm not sure if ours was defective or if they're all this horrible. When you turn it off you can still hear buzzing from the speakers and your batteries are being drained. Took us about 12 dollars in batteries until we realized that. Bass sounds fuzzy even when running off of the AC adapter. We've had a few hours of decent listening time, but otherwise it has been nothing but an annoyance."
94282,1,A cure for Insomnia,"If this book doesn't put you to sleep, nothing will. Full of vague and windy generalities, and incredible repetition, you won't find out much of anything. But you will be bored."
94286,1,"very, very basic","This book is very, very basic. The author describes rudimentary pneumatics but leaves out any explanation. For example the valve symbols are shown but there are no descriptions what the inlets and the outlet are and what the various valves are used for. There is an ""extensive"" (for the book) description to filters and separators, but again no description why this is done. The writing style is rather flippant and condescending. I learned more from the Wikipedia article (and the links therein) than from this book."
94403,1,The data that the pedometer reports is not consistent,We got the pedometer and we have been used over the same path several times. Based in our estimations it is about 6000 steps per turn. This pedometer reports anything between 3000 and 10000 steps in different days.
94408,1,Fragile,Glass got scratched after nearly 4 months of using it still love the materials used as well as the ultra low weight
94430,1,A huge disappointment,"Schwinger might have been a great physicist, but his style is ""anti-Feynman"". Feynman strives (usually successfully) to get to the (physical) point, Schwinger buries the subject in a morass of formalism, which obscures both the mathematics and the physics (I should say that I am a mathematician, so maybe this book is good for physicists...)."
94466,1,Nice idea - could be better quality,"Unit seems to operate ok except that the clamps don't fit into the tight space around the battery posts in my car. I have an older Schumacher charger with much smaller clamps that fit everywhere...these folks could learn from that.Also, the instruction manual seems like it was originally written in some other language and translated into English. It's spotty in details and I seem to get items on the unit's display that aren't at all documented in the manual."
94494,1,Only Lasted 15 minutes,I had to return this charger only after 15 minutes of use. Not sure what went wrong with the charger. But after using it for 15 minutes it shut off and never turned on again. I don't know if it suffers in the heat of Los Angeles. The replacement they sent me went out in the same amount of time. I tried the two chargers on two different batteries and two different outlets. I wanted to make sure it wasn't the battery or the outlets causing the outage. It did not matter. It felt like both chargers overheated and burned out only after 15 minutes of use.
94630,1,Hated it.,"If it wasn't so short I would have stop about 50 pages into it, but I was curious to see what the point was. Unfortunately, it wasn't worth the time. If you are over 10 years old this book should not have much effect on you. It makes me sad that anyone would be influenced by something so trivial and slight.Read it at you own risk."
94669,1,Dorothy got there first!,"I agree with the person who called this book psychobabble. The story rambles and pretty much goes nowhere--old bromides in an reused package. This journey was an unsuccessful vehicle to deliver the wisdom of the ages. Dorothy discovered There's no place like home! on the way to Oz in a much more compelling story. So did the friends she picked up along the way. People who like the fantasy genre would undoubtedly enjoy it more than I did. A waste of time; good thing it was so short. Two stars because it was totally clean, otherwise only one."
94689,1,Rip-Off,"This tape is fine if you're one of the parents of these kids. It really is irresponsible to be marketing this as a professional performance, when it's really a ballet school(and not a very good one) performance tape. The lead (Snow Queen) shouldn't even be on pointe! Shame on you, whoever you are, for marketing this to the poor unknowing public! (And as for you parents, I'm sure you can find a better ballet school, you just have to do a little homework!)"
94700,1,Kindle edition has DOZENS of typos,"I am a fan of Alan H and had never read the Folding Star. This particular Kindle edition, however, is riddled with typos... Dozens of them. It's annoying, distracting and definitely detracts from the experience. It looks to me like they scanned a printed edition and then didn't correct the mistakes. Would not have bought this if I had know about the condition which runs throughout the book. Shoddy-the writing deserves better!"
94709,1,AVOID,"I made the mistake of buying an HP/Compaq system. For the price I don't expect mainframe performance, but I didn't expect the headaches I got. HP/Compaq is a good company, so I don't know why they put their name on this. It hangs a lot. Several times a week I have to pull the power cord to reboot it when it hangs; even holding down the power button for a long time doesn't power it off. The card reader wiped my vacation photos from Rome. The system has 1GB of memory that is shared with the video. Big mistake! It's not enough to run Vista properly and has to use the virtual memory on the hard drive to do everything. The result is a lot of noise as it accesses the hard drive, severely hampered performance, and a lag of several minutes (up to 10, if ever) to launch even some of the simplest programs. I expect the hard drive to burn out any day now. I will never buy a system built by HP/Compaq ever again."
94722,1,Three men - Two stars,"Three men in a boat is a fantastic read - the mix of comedy and adventure is perfect and it captures the Victorian era to a 't'.I therefore had high hopes of the sequel, Three men on the bummel. Unfortunetly I can not praise it. The laugh aloud comedy element has given way to, at beast monologues you smile through, at worst, ones you want to skip. The adventure is in short supply and doesn't sit well with the comedy. A real shame."
94729,1,cracked canisters,the canisters are great looking and I would have loved them in my kitchen accept after receiving two sets of them broken they would not ship me anymore so needless to say I still don't have a set they told me to order another color well that wouldn't work in my kitchen and after all there still ceramic what makes them think I wouldn't have this problem again. Not knocking the product just the way of shipping it
94914,1,"Aesthetically pleasing, but....",It broke after two uses. I was very disappointed. The foil cutter doesn't really do it's job either which may have helped lead to the early demise of the corkscrew.
94961,1,Where did Elizabeth Lowell Go?,"Since you already have reviewers who have given you the premise of the book I'll not duplicate. I never write reviews -- this book was so annoyingly poor that I was determined to say something. What happened to Elizabeth Lowell? Where's the author who wrote the other ""Always"" books or the ""Only"" series or the rest of her books?!! The premise was a good idea -- but I think she started to drown in all the characters that had to be brought in to make the premise work. And, one paragraph love scene, does not a Romance Novel make!! By the end of the book I couldn't have cared less about anyone of the characters -- I just wanted the book to be over! Do yourself a favor and wait for the paperback. The hardback was too expensive for the lack of pleasure you receive. Sorry Elizabeth, you're too talented a story teller to sell your public this lackluster excuse for a novel. I gave you two stars because you sat down and tried to write something!"
95007,1,GARBAGE!!!!!!!!!,"Two things should have warned me this movie was goingto be horrible.Kel Mitchell was in it,and after ""GoodBurger"" everything he does should be discounted,andhe wrote it.That should have been a dead giveaway.It's boring,stupid and completely unfunny.Thecharacters are amazing in their stupidity.Havingone guy who opens the door complaining all the time,the girl that they fawn over is an ass-&$le andthat Money Mike guy from ""Friday after Next"" keepspullin a Katie Holmes and ""acts"" the same way inevery movie he's in regardless of the character.Which means he can't act.He's a worse actor thanHeather Graham and that's saying alot.Buy this movie only if you would like tosee how well a DVD can burn,cause thats allyou should do with it."
95051,1,YUK!,"The thing that i hate the most about this band is their fan base. Cheesey, pretentious, weak, whimpy, pansey, wanna-be artsy, psuedo intellectual, corn ball, and down right annoying people. I don't get it. Maybe it's cuz i'm not gay."
95172,1,CUP RUNNETH OVER,"THIS COFFEE MAKER DOES MAKE A GREAT CUP OF COFFEE. I'VE OWNED IT FOR OVER A YEAR NOW. THERE HAVE BEEN ABOUT 12 OCCASIONS NOW WHERE THE COFFEE MAKER HAS OVERFLOWED, LITERALLY BACKING UP OVER OUR COUNTER AND CUSTOM CABINETS. I HAVE TRIED DESCALING, CONSCIENTIOUS OF NOT SPILLING COFFEE OUTSIDE OF THE BASKET AND CONSTANT CLEANING. I THINK THAT THE CULPRIT IS THERE ARE TWO LITTLE PLASTIC BALL BEARINGS WITHIN THE COVER OF THE POT AND WHEN ONE OR BOTH DO NOT OPEN, IT CAUSES A MAJOR COFFEE GROUND OVERFLOW, WHICH SPILLS ALL OVER THE COUNTER AND DESTROYS MY CABINETS. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERYTIME, BUT WHEN IT DOES WHAT A MESS! WAKING UP IN THE MORNING TO THE SMELL OF COFFEE AND FINDING A MESS INSTEAD IS NOT FUN."
95250,1,Not All Regions,I saw part one of this on YouTube and enjoyed it. Was surprised it was available as an all region DVD. It's not. My one star is for Amazon listing it improperly and not the documentary itself.
95281,1,DRM = No Purchase!,"The atrocious DRM provided with this version of Spore results in my not purchasing over-the-counter.Nonetheless, I have played the game, and it's not all that - definitely not worth jumping through hoops repeatedly for the sake of some silly DRM..."
95288,1,Warning - Don't use the patch with Vista,"My kids had to have this game. They saved and pooled their money and installed it on the computer. That was great. It was working. They loved it. Spore is, after all, a fun game. However, then they downloaded the recommended patch. The game would no longer load. We spent over an hour chatting with tech support. Spore's tech support's final solution was to create a new administrative account on our PC just to play Spore on and reinstall Spore in that account and not install the patch.If you have Vista, do not update the software."
95292,1,DRM infected,defectivebydesign and drm infected...Now Mac users can share the pain and frustration of PC gamers with this offering by EA. Please don't buy this product and give your money to a game manufacturer that respects customer's privacy and Fair Use rights!
95303,1,"drm, 1 activation per letter, no sale","One activation per letter of DRM, 3. I was about to let my Prime account get it to me next day then saw the DRM horror stories. Sorry EA, great game, poor license."
95322,1,DRM = Purchase protection,"I can personally verify that DRM has protected Spore from being purchased by me. I can tell you that I was looking forward to buying a copy of spore, I have been following it's development for almost two years now. But since of this DRM BS I won't, for now at least. I know I could get it DRM free on piratebay but I won't do that either. Maybe I'll buy it for $9.95 in a year or so."
95352,1,Securom = The Reckoning,Spore uses Securom. Securom is one of the worst and most invasive techniques used by companies to protect their interests regardless of what the consumers wish for. Remember that software cannot be returned once open and at this point it would be too late. Do not waste your money on this product.
95356,1,"DRM...why, We are not criminals.",So I was going to buy this game... but apparently we are all crooks.No one wants to buy something and feel like you have stolen it.Customer is always right. That is a rule I have always heard in retail.Apparently in the video game world of retail... that doesn't matter.
95376,1,DRM makes this unusable,"DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. You cannot buy it anyway, it is DRM'ed.I will not, repeat, will not install anything with DRM. DRM installs unknown software on my machine, monitors my use and causes unexplained crashes. Philosophically, DRM is garbage. After paying money for a product, I would like to use it as I please, install it on any machine I choose, and make backup copies if I feel like it. I do not need someone to monitor me or lay claim to what's inside my house.Until software marketers learn that when you sell something you actually have to give it to the buyer, no one should buy their software."
95380,1,I never pirate.,I never pirated a game in my life. I own... but no way could I have a comfortable gaming experience knowing I have spore loaded on my Vista machine with only two reloads left. I already had Vista go south on me once.No thanks EA. I hope more people refuse to buy.
95381,1,Bad bad bad,"Purchased and will be returning. Not only is the DRM a problem, after installation it bogged my internet connection down. After uninstall (and manual removal of SecuRom) the connection was back to normal. Reinstalled and had same thing. Tried another installation on 2nd machine and got nailed with more than three installations.I won't be calling EA for reactivation, the retailer will be returning the box.The gameplay I did see was just a cutdown RTS. Some innovation but really isn't all that good overall."
95408,1,Screw EA and DRM,"Good game or not, installation of the DRM is ridiculous, particularly with how invasive it is.Stop trying to fight it EA, or you're going to learn the hard way like the Music Industry did.Don't buy this game until they remove the DRM."
95633,1,Not her most inspired effort,"While its importance in bringing r&b fused dance music to the mainstream should not go unregarded, there's still no hiding that Madonna's self titled debut contains mostly shallow dance/pop songs with even shallower lyrics. It sounds dated almost to cringe inducing levels.Top Cuts: Holiday, Borderline, Burning Up"
95656,1,Mobile stopped Rotating after 2 weeks,"I read many reviews and decided to get this one from Sassy. First of all, we could not get the batteries to go in. So we went to BRU and exchanged the 1st one. This new one we got 3 weeks ago.I used it about 20-30 mins every day for 2 weeks and I must say that my daughter loved it. I liked the fact that it had a working remote and the music played for a long time.After 2 weeks of slight use the mobile stopped rotating. I gave it a few small taps and it started to rotate again. But a few days later it stopped again. It wont start rotating even after a tap any more. This is going back it to the store."
95720,1,McDigital Pseudo Crap.,"(Let me start by saying I mean no offense to Enigma fans. This band was, after all, recommended to me by one of my best former friends.)Enigma is about as enigmatic (and substantial) as a cologne commercial. This album is Goth-tech, McProfound sh** from start to finish. A CD's worth of digi-beat danceteria mega-mix, all schtickily packaged in Gregorian chants, 'gothic' choral pieces, Casio-keyed New Age harmonic vibrations, and the like. In other words disco (Oh, I'm sorry--I mean Electronica!!) wrapped tight in layers of sampled, 'profound' sonic iconography. Enigma seemingly believes (or hopes) that this formula adds up to genuine 'substance'. (It is hard to describe Enigma's music, without a string of apostrophe encased adjectives--the band is psuedo itself.) Uhm, not quite. Image isn't artistry. MCMXC A.D. (OOh!! 1990 in ROMAN NUMERALS! Roman numerals like on cathedrals!! Gothic! Deep!!) isn't music it's marketing.Cheers,Robert"
95802,1,Doen't last 24 hours and does nothing for noses...,"I don't recommend this product if your allergies include a runny, itchy nose...Also, this medication doesn't last 24 hours like it says it will and you can't take anything else with it...It does work reasonably well for itchy and watery eyes...if you want a OTC medication for your allergies...try either Benadryl ot Claritian 12 Hour...skip the 24 Hour stuff..."
95805,1,Out the door with toilet paper rolls and sunglasses.,"This product really doesn't work for me. Sudafed works, but makes me really jittery-- and overtime, I had to take more pills at a time to make my nose stop clogging. I have been taking claritin for 2 weeks now. I've heard you have to let it build up in your system before your allergies start. But seriously... if it has to ""build up"" ... could that really be healthy? 2 weeks and nothing. If anything, as I've moved 2 weeks farther into my allergy season... I've gotten worse. Itchy, watery eyes... runny nose, congestion, sneezing..... The people at my job think I'm coming from a funeral!Tylenol Severe Allergy works well for me... but you're not supposed to exceed 8 in a day. You take 2 every 4 hours. That's 16/24 hours of coverage. My allergies are too bad to go without that 8 hours of relief. Maybe I need a mask....."
95822,1,SKLFHDI,"Pretty much the same as always; i.e., really bloody stupid. Now he's trying to sound ANGRY!! Uh oh! That's pretty scary! Yeah, very aggressive. It's hard to think of anything more pathetic, although in a way it's encouraging to see that even people like him can succeed."
95835,1,Great -- except for missing episodes.,"Quite enjoyed it up to the entirely missing Episodes 9 and 10. No subtitles, commentary, fine, no problem. But that just ruined it for me. Lionsgate should at least post them online."
95923,1,DO NOT BUY THESE!,"These are NOT 4.5"" or 5"" tall like dimensions say. They are not even 2"" tall. These are not as protrayed, and I am very unhappy! These are very tiny, do not buy! They are shorter than my pinky. AVOID!"
95937,1,TALENT SHOW LOSERS,"THIS BOLOGNA WOULD NOT EVEN QUALIFY A COVER BAND FOR HONORABLE MENTION AT A LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL...ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TALENT SHOW. HOWEVER, THIS DISC WOULD MAKE A GREAT COASTER FOR YOUR COFFEE TABLE...I THOUGHT THE DARK 90'S OF RUSH WERE GONE WITH THE RELEASE OF THE PROMISING VAPOR TRAILS...WITH THIS RELEASE THEY HAVE GONE BACK TO THEIR TEST FOR ECHO STATUS--THIS IS SAD, SAD, SAD- A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME AND TALENT AND THIS ALBUM RANKS #1 AS MOST INDULGENT AND POMPOUS...WE DON'T CARE ANYMORE RUSH, BUT THANKS FOR THE COASTER. A BAND THAT HAS SPENT MOST OF THEIR CAREER ON THEMES OF ALIENATION HAS ALIENATED ALL THEIR FANS...DE DE DE DE DE YEA!"
95944,1,Nice try...poor/low tech,"The quality of the sound & audio was distracting to my kids & the quickly lost interest. Also, the characters voice was frightful at times....my kids are 3 & 5"
95981,1,Child hated it,"This held my child's interest for a whopping 2 minutes, and he refused to play with it any longer. Really, it's a bunch of soft cars that don't roll, are difficult to push and don't stay stacked. Don't waste your money."
95982,1,My son had no interest in this,"It's an ok designed toy with flaps for doors & windows on the cars that a child can lift up. However, it makes no noise (no rattle even) and my bigger hangup is the wheels. The wheels are colored like a black & white target, so when you roll the car it doesn't look like it's spinning. There should be spokes so you can actually see the wheels moving which would engage a child more. I don't think they are machine washable either, only spot clean (which I don't enjoy). My son got these as a gift when he was a few mos old and didn't play with them. He is now just over a year old & he STILL has no interest in them."
96025,1,boring,"I thought this was supposed to have a tour inside the capitol, but there was just one room. It was long and boring."
96056,1,Not for Children,"Although this shirt comes in children sizes it is not intended for them. Children just don't have the mind power to control the mystical powers of this shirt. Myself and my 5 kids wore our 3W&M shirts to a family reunion and after a three legged race did not go Jr's way mayhem erupted. All I can say is that by the time animal control was called a better half of my family was gone and Hut 42 looked like a catchup factory had exploded on it. Nana still isn't talking to me, and pop pop seems to be holding a grudge about his missing leg. On the plus side the shirts arrived on time and blood washes right out of them."
96103,1,"2 Mos., Still waiting","Ordered this item October 26, 2005, have not received it as of December 27, 2005. Will never order anything through Amazon/Toys R Us again and will disuade everyone I know from doing business with them. It might cost a little bit more to go through E Toys & etc., but I've never had a problem getting something delivered via Standard Shipping within a couple weeks, not the two months and counting of Amazon/Toys R Us. Fully disapointed with my ""puchase""."
96153,1,DON'T BUY!!!! Only gets 1 star bc you have to rate it to post review,"The price went down .25 since I bought it 14 days ago bc they are cheaply made and DON'T work! Even though I will be losing almost half of what I paid, I'm returning it."
96204,1,A slow death,"We followed the directions on this plant, but it had a slow death. People said it would take some time to adapt, so we cared for it but it never seemed to adapt. It finally did die after the Amazon 30 day warranty. Now we are stuck with a dead plant and a pot. We'd love to try a replacment plant if Amazon is up for sending one."
96213,1,Get what you pay for.,"It was my way of testing the waters for a smaller price and I wished I would have just bought the Canon EF 28mm-135mm lens and got it over with. The Tamron 70mm-300mm broke and quit telescoping on the first day of use. I'm trying to work with Tamron to get this fixed. The photos I did take were extremely blurry. The 28mm-80mm lens works fine, but the autofocus is a little slow compared to the canon lens for my Rebel XTI. I would stick with the Canon lenses."
96239,1,"If you can't get your pendents on it, how good can it be","I own over 100 pendents. Of them, I found only about 8% had holes large enough to thread this through them. More thought should have been given to practical aspects of this cord."
96249,1,If you must have it..wait for the paper back!!,I fall for it every time. I think this one HAS to be better than the last. Once again I was disappointed.
96258,1,Whine Whine Whine,"Once again Cornwell has reduced women to soul searching and ineffective part of human kind. Spending 2/3rds of the book getting to the story is asking a lot. I personally won't go down that road again. Give it up, the Gen x, Thirty something moaning is just plain a pain."
96271,1,Absolutely worthless,"The dirt cup doesn't hold enough debri, That is if you can get it to run long enough to fill it. The unit is always dead after about running it for 3 seconds. I will never buy another."
96303,1,"How about a review of this EDITION, not the work?","Can anyone please tell me if this edition is worth a darn? Obviously, this book is a classic; reviews of the work seem redundant in 2009. What I really, really want to know is this: is this a good edition to work with for a student? Are there notes, study guides, or commentaries? Chapters headings, index, tables for reference?? Which edition of this book is the best?"
96331,1,Tryptophan 500 mg.,"I DID NOT THINK THESE PILLS HELPED AT ALL, THOUGH OTHER BRANDS SEEMED TO. PILLS ARE ALSO HUGE, AND DOSAGE IS 3 CAPSULES.WOULD NOT RECOMMEND."
96424,1,Too repetitive...,"I am a big fan of Loreena, but I have to say that most of the songs of this album are very repetitive and dull. You can hear the same melody over and over. Most of the songs are very long and hearing the same melody all the time makes everything very boring. On the other hand, I don't know why they decided to add drums to most of the songs. It breaks all the magic atmosphere of her previous albums.Very disappointed."
96494,1,Chemical smell to paperback,"I love this story but the book has a kerosene type smell that I hope will dissipate when left standing open. Made in China, go figure. Not suitable for kids to be near the way it is. Had hoped to share around the grandkids but not this edition. Also the CD story reader doesn't have a bell or tone to let kids know when to turn the page, so its something they have to learn along with the story."
96569,1,Driven by MTV...,"The only reason this album went anywhere is because of his gig as VJ on MTV Jams. If it wasn't for that, his album wouldn't have went platinum because the material on this album isn't worth it."
96615,1,Not what I ordered. AVOID BuyDBest as a vendor!,"BUYER BEWARE! The product shipped to me was not at all what is depicted and described here on Amazon.com. The shape of the blade is the same, but that is where the similarity ends. No lanyard, no case, and an unwieldy finger guard which I did not want. This is useless to me, and not at all worth the 79 bucks I paid for it. If you buy this from Amazon, make sure it is not fulfilled by one of their lousy vendors. In my case the vendor was ""BuyDBest"", which should have warned me they are not on the up and up... Now I have to package it up and return it to get a refund. I will not try ordering this from Amazon again. Maybe there is somewhere else that sells the product and will ship me what I actually ordered."
96637,1,"Killed bugs after a while, but also killed plants.","I bought this for my houseplants/patio plants. After a few minutes the bugs were dead (not exactly ""on contact""). The worse part, though, is that it damaged my plants!! My dracaena and peace lily now has black leaves after using this product!! Only time will tell if my plants will actually live...but I guess that means I won't have to worry about bugs if I don't have the plant either. :("
96678,1,"Worst disappointment since ""Mingus""","I loved ""Hissing of Summer Lawns"", another experimental album by Joni. I've followed her down the highways of ""Hejira"". I fell in love with her on ""Blue"" and ""Court and Spark"". But there's just nothing for me here. In fact, I try to chase some of the melodies out of my head because I find them irritating. Joni, you shouldn't have tamed the tiger at all. You should have let it out of the cage. Please begin writing with a vengeance again. Your words are your weapons and they strike straight to the heart. This album is so spare, it sounds like you have applied your muse to painting in the past few years. And I can't hear that."
96682,1,Heads up,This is an HD DVD that can only be played on older equipment. Think of buying a Betamax tpe nowadays expecting it to work on the old VCR. Not going to happen. Shame on these guys.D.
96784,1,Not Worth Buying,"Gangsta Boo shows on this CD how wack her lyrics are. Only tracks 3, 8, and 11 are worth a listen."
96850,1,Feeble shaker siphon,"The Hopkins FloTool 10801 shaker siphon that I purchased via Amazon did not do what I expected and wanted.Shaking its tip vigorously up and down while well immersed in gasoline did draw a small amount of gas up six inches and into the siphon tube, but not enough to fill the plastic tubing, and therefore not enough to start siphoning. I think that the apparatus might work better if the tube were thinner, and therefore easier to fill.The principle of this ball-valve apparatus is good, and the tube does keep one's fingers out of gasoline, but overall this is not an adequate product."
96851,1,Don't buy this one!,This siphon DOES NOT WORK. The shaking thing that is used to start the flow does nothing. Get a pump type siphon instead.
96876,1,Slow to confirm,Over a month since placing this order and I have yet to receive an issue or an confirmation of my subscription.
96944,1,Just awful,This was the most miserable book I have ever read. These two women only dwell on the worst in life. It made me depressed! Not anything like Alice Hoffmans other books. Don't waste your time.
97062,1,Lies! Lies! Lies!,"I bought this software for one reason: It indicated that it could import lots of file types. Much to my horror I can't open anything! NOTHING! Not .mov files, not any .mpeg files, not .wm files, not .avi files. It keeps telling me ""bad file type."" After having numerous files custom rendered off an avid system I was able to open them with Adobe Premier but NOT with this program. I wanted to scream each time. Magix got my money but I will always remember the name ""Magix"" and never EVER buy another product from this quack company again."
97084,1,thought it would be better but ...,"i read a couple of good reviews , so i decided to check it out , unfortunately ...."
97105,1,Not a good buy,"The radio broke only after a few months of normal indoor use at the gym(8-10 hours per week). Some of the preset buttons stopped working first. Soon thereafter, the unit just stopped working completely. Very disappointed with the purchase."
97120,1,Great while it works!,"I purchased the Rowenta DX8800 iron about two years ago. It worked great then a month ago it started ""shorting"" out. Knowing it was past it's warranty period I sent it to the recommended service center in NY. BIG MISTAKE!!!They gave me Four Options:Option #1:Repair for $87.99Option #2: Purchase a new unit for $99.98 total price charged after 10% discount and shipping charges.(I think a new one is listed on Amazon for $89.99)Option #3: Pay $12.99 to have it shipped back (it cost me $10.15 to have it shipped to them)Option #4: Have the unit discardedWhat a RIP OFF! I certainly assumed an iron costing almost $100 would last more than 2 years!I wonder if Rowenta knows what kind of service centers they are recommending? I will NEVER buy another Rowenta!!!"
97145,1,motor died after one year.,"Used this product nearly every day for a year, mostly for smoothies, and occasionally to make hummus or various sauces. It was great while it lasted but I will not be buying another Cuisinart blender or food processor."
97152,1,Only received 1 NOT a 12-pack,False advertising.. I only received 1 and it clearly states in at least 3 places on my screen that its a 12-pack.. This is a serious problem for me and my customers.. Thanks for lying!
97236,1,Tank leaks,Rowenta IS-8100 Commercial Garment SteamerPurchased 2 years ago. Worked fine until the water tank began leaking. The water tank design is poor. The tank cap seal breaks down as thin plastic threads strip from repeated use. There is no catch basin and water leaks out of the tank and runs down onto the floor - right over the electrical cord entry point! No replacement is available from Rowenta and they do not seem to have a repair station or address. Another contribution to our throw away society...
97269,1,worthless,"I bought this player for my 15 year old daughter. There are no instructions on how to get the music from your computer in to the player. The only instructions that are included are in regards to the buttons on the player itself, and these instructions are extremely poorly written. I have asked to be able to return the player, but they will not accept it back. They say it has been too long since we bought it. But we were trying many times and many different ways to get the player to work, so that is why the time passed. Anyway, I am now stuck with this player that is absolutely worthless to me. Beware before purchasing this item!!! I would definitely not recommend it. My son has an Apple Ipod and it is extremely easy to use. Wish I had spent the extra money and bought one of those for my daughter."
97376,1,broke,"It broke promptly. Actually, the lead/thermocouple unit broke promptly. I didn't slam the lead with the barbecue lid or anything. I was quite careful. It broke. I'd happily spend 5 times as much for something that didn't break so easily.It was great while it worked though.sigh"
97393,1,"Nice concept, poor execution ...","I actually returned the mixer b/c it was horrible ... Had Kitchenaid spent a bit more time on figuing a better way to attach the blade to the mixer (they use a cheap piece of plastic that does not stay in place) it would have been a much mcuh better product ... Instead, it was terrible. To be fair, the bowl seemed high quality as did the mixing blade ... it was only the $0.50 piece of plastic that caused the entire concept to fall apart ... Hopefully this will be fixed in an upgrade ..."
97415,1,Need replacement manual.,"I only used this once; it was okay, and would like to try it again, but hv since moved and misplaced the manual that came with it. I hv tried in vain to find the recipes for this machine; would someone please just send me the simplest most basic recipe. I hv given up on finding a replacement recipe book. Otherwise it takes up a lot of room for nothing....thanks, MVanya TX"
97419,1,Volume Regulator,"Not sure about this product. It worked at first, but after about a month the same old thing began happening....Music and commercials are louder than the talking on the show. It might now be the fault of the product, but rather the Cable company or the transition between HD and regular TV. Anyway, I am not sure."
97420,1,Save Your Money!,"I really hoped this thing would work. I installed it as per the instructions and it does controll the volume between stations a little bit, but not anywhere near enough. I tried with it in line with my amp and without it in line. Hardly any differencelI wouldn't reccoment buying it."
97464,1,wow.,David Maslanka's 'Mountain Roads' is a fantastic piece. If only the quartet could play in tune. What an awful representation of a great piece.
97528,1,Another 'formula' book on India's stereotypes,"Just as there are formula Bollywood movies, now there is formula 'literature' written about India, in which one of the common and over-done themes is about abused Indian woman. Bad mother-in-law, abusive husband, dowry and maybe even death, superstitious and backward Hindu practices and beliefs, poverty and pollution (viewed as a sort of chronic feature that was always part of India), and general social backwardness - in other words, badly in need of being rescued. Of course, the cure to this plight is held by one or more of the following privileged groups: Western Feminists; 'South Asians' since they already escaped into Westernization; and Proselytizers."
97551,1,Family,I received the movie within a week but it wouldn't play had to return it and order it from someone else.
97699,1,Cheaply Made,This works okay but is very cheaply made. I would find a better quality one because this one looks and feels like a cheap toy.
97802,1,NOT for little children,This movie is definitely not for little kids. I bought the Fluke/Napoleon set for my 2 year old daughter because she loves puppies. Napoleon was PERFECT! But Fluke was an awful movie. It had 2 people dying and a dog getting shot with a gun in it (I don't want to introduce her to violence). I threw the movie away-what a waste of money.
97861,1,Don't do it!,"If bland uninspired food by a Corporate Giant (General Mills) pretending to be America's Sweetheart of the kitchen (sorry boys and girls, ther is no Betty Crocker, that's why she changes her face every 10 years) by all means, buy this book. Now if you want to really learn how to cook real food, try the Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book or the Southern Living Cook Book. Both will lead you the beginer through all the steps and have you cooking like a pro in no time!"
97971,1,Not worth it,What an ordinary story. Poorly written and lacking any form of suspense. There are much better stories out there that will entertain.
97984,1,What?,It was one of the worst books I've ever read! A boring story that made no sense and had nothing to do with the video-game DOOM... (one of the best video-games on earth!)
98006,1,"""eLearning with Dreamweaver MX""","Most books by Macromedia Press are well written and aimed towards the beginner. This book is neither well written and is aimless.I bought the book to learn more about coursebuilder and although i know quite a bit about dreamweaver, I found this book of little help. There are no files to accompany the book, even though the author (once in a while) refers to them.The biggest problem I found with this book is that it fails to explain with examples, often refering to files you were supposed to create without telling you what file or providing a file for those of us that don't want to start from page 1.The other major drawback is that the book appears unfinished. With a bit more effort and polishing it could be a great book, but as it is, it is difficult to read and very hard to learn with."
98029,1,Useless,"This book has more than 600 pages.To the worst defeat of the British Navy in history, the siege of Cartagena, the author devotes exactly 6 lines."
98039,1,Holy pixelation!!,I received a very inferior DVD. 3/4 of the movie is nothing but stops and starts with the pixels running wild. It plays like a pirated copy. I could not view enough of the movie to even rate it.
98089,1,"Not for me, but maybe for other spiritual seekers","I personally didn't care for the redundance of the writings. The reading didn't flow well. Did not work for me, however other people do enjoy his writings, so don't take my word for it. I did not find it inspiring or educational to help with self improvement> I enjoy books that are uplifting, inspiring, and how to change yourself to improve your outlook, thought processes, etc."
98115,1,"Don't believe the hype, this movie sucks","OK, basically this is a bad movie with good actors:The killer in the movie (the guy you expect to get killed at the very end) is a non scary mortal who just kills all the characters in the movie except for the sherif (played by Tommy Lee Jones) with this big gun. And the director makes all the killings look sad. Then to make matter's worst in the end of this movie, the good guy's wife is killed right after he had been shot by the killer with his big gun for basically no reason. Then the Killer gets into a car, has an accident and pays these kids $100 not to say anything and walks off. This movie sucked and in my opinion was ruined by the killer not dieing. But I guess if you like watching non gory, non action packed, sad movies then this is your types of movie."
98144,1,Static,"It might be my area, but this thing is my $55 charger now. The feedback was terrible. 4 mile stretch in my daily commute (in a metro area, not the sticks somewhere) it was nothing but white noise. I can't use it at all. I would trade it for an MP3 car charger and get something else."
98181,1,"No go, bad disks x2, included digital copy is crap","I have received a second shipment of this BD and it does not play either,Roxio Cineplayer freezes completely on both copies of this Fox disk.None of my other 30 odd bluray disks have any problem playing, in additionI have two separate bd disk drives on my computer and both do the same lockup on this Fox XMen First Class (note that both drives are up to date onfirmware and they are different makes, one is Samsung and the other isLG).Not sure who is at fault but I'm certain it's not my computer or both drivesas they work for so many bluray. And it seems remote this could be Cineplayeras well. I'm guessing anyone trying this bd on a computer will find thesame results.Also I found the ""digital copy"" is worthless as it is lower resolution thanI would ever watch, it's not even 480p at 720x306, far below what I paidfor and wanted to see, after all it's supposed to be bluray (1920x1080)."
98182,1,Don't buy.,"I watched this with a friend and afterwards was glad I didn't waste my money buying or even renting this movie. If you are looking for any kind of comic book continuity then skip this movie. There are so many things out of order in this movie I can't believe it was put into production. Alex Summers exists in the 60's as a young adult (impossible), and yet Scott doesn't.? I wasn't impressed with Kevin Bacon's portrayal of Sebastian Shaw or Sebastian's made up power to absorb explosions and energy to stay young.I won't bore you with all of the details of what I found wrong with this movie and why I wouldn't recommend watching it. If it was set apart from the comic books then it would be passable to watch. The special effects and action was good."
98215,1,Was great until the handle broke off!,"We used this mostly to reseal bags and only occassionally to vacuum. I had purchased the bags and canisters and wine corks and jar sealers, etc.. to use with this product, only to have the handle (required to seal it) break off! I am very disappointed, and their website offers no information on how to get it repaired after the rebate runs out. This was an expensieve investment that is now worth nothing. It is not a quality product."
98288,1,Not a goof movie for inlaw night...,"Don't watch this with your in-laws. The movie opens with a guy eating a girl out. Seriously? Wow. We turned it off and my face turned red. I was prepared for some raunch, but not within the first minute."
98297,1,Rowenta Power Duo problems,"Dont waste your money, this iron worked great in the beginning but with less than 6 months of using it and trust me we do not iron that often, this started dripping water. First noticed as I sat it upright to cool down and returned to find it sitting in a puddle of water. Hasnt worked right since and the steam is not up to par. No reason for the problem as it has never been dropped or knocked around."
98360,1,Hate it.,This book messes up on Poomse's and other kinds of TKD moves. It's poomse's are unworthy. The people in this book are unworthy. DON'T buy this.
98401,1,"Poor printer, not bad for a scanner.","I thought I was getting a good deal, paying only around $100 for this printer/scanner/copier. But the ink cartridges were very expensive and didn't last long. Also, it pooped out on me after only a year. I still use it as a copier/scanner, but I went back and bought an HP since I have had great success with the HP brand in the past, and their cartridges are much more reasonable."
98481,1,Couple of good singles. Too repetitive. Look for it used.,"A couple of singles peak (like the blazin' ""560"") but most of this is disappointing. Drags on'n'on, like most d'n'b tracks made for mixing. High end production can't hide a lack of imagination. Damn, and I expected more from him. Can't he think beyond 3 minutes, on a 7 minute song? Starts with lots of promise, then just plain drags for the rest of the song...Look for the singles on mixed tapes. Otherwise, find it used."
98500,1,"Nice book, but not many pages","This book is nice, but man this is small. There are only a few pages and this book is wafer thin. I wish there was a few more pages to it."
98564,1,Easy to use deep fryer with a defective lid design,"The fryer works well and fries to perfection. It's easy to use and has a great looking design. However, the lid on this unit has a tendency to not stay closed. I have purchased three of these and gifts and have had to return two of them and the third I'll have to submit to warranty repair.I recommend that you do not purchase this product."
98610,1,dont work any more,One headphone quit working 3 days after christmas and now the player wont do anything but make funny noises-doesnt play any music any more
98617,1,the razor's edge,"You may be surprised at this, but I actually threw out this thINKing Classics' edition of the Razor's Edge! WHY?....Because the cover was horrendous! It really bothered me...so cheap and awful for such a great classic novel. Who decides on these sort of cover designs? HORRENDOUS and CHEAP!After throwing this book in the garbage I went to Amazon.co.uk and purchased the Vintage paperback edition of The Razor's Edge. Beautifully produced and in keeping with Somerset Maugham's great writing. There are a number of classics available in Vintage paperback editions."
98718,1,Pitt is a joke with his western accent,Brad Pitt is a real joke as a western accsented officer. I know that this wasbased on history but come on he sounds awful
98854,1,"""Final Cut"" is the final straw.","I'm a loyal Floyd fan since I first stumbled onto them in the early '70's, but ""Final Cut"" is an awful piece of work. Compared to every other Pink floyd album out there, this one is the weakest.Yes, it's subjective, so humblest apoligies to those who find it worthwhile. Personally, it's a lot of noise. If you want to introduce yourself to Pink Floyd, pick any one of their other works. Purchase this album only if you need it to complete your Floyd collection. This does not change the fact that Pink floyd is one of the greatest bands of all time, but they sure laid an egg with ""Final Cut""."
98889,1,Italian Forrest Gump?,"Not only were the characters, story, and inconsistencies with the original Godfather enough to make this a preposterous read, the Forrest Gump quality to the tale added to it. This book puts the Corleones in the unlikely position of having their finger in every pie of history through the 50s and the 60s. The thinly veiled references to the Kennedy family, the Rat Pack and countless other ridiculous references made this book a real groaner. As a Tallahassee resident I really found the whole FSU thing a sorry attempt. The only thing that would have completed the sad attempt at literature would have been a scene where Bobby Bowden and everybody on the sidelines held up signs and yelled, ""Run, Fredo, Run!"" and have Fredo Corleone score the winning touchdown against Florida.This book is a stronzo on the sole of the shoes of the excellent legacy of Mario Puzo. Do yourself a favor and wipe it off the bottom of your shoe before going inside."
98935,1,Excited by singles. Sadly underwhelmed by CD.,"I heard 3EB in concert, and was psyched to own their self-titled CD. When I finally got it, my excitement deflated like a punctured balloon.After you've heard ""Semi-Charmed Life"" and ""Jumper"", you've pretty much heard the whole CD. Just about every song sounds the same. Not a bad song, but it's just ten or so versions of it.The one exception is ""Motorcyle Drive-By"". I fell in love with that track. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to justify the CD, in my mind."
99012,1,Dyson DC14,"I bought the Dyson DC14 reconditioned less than a year ago. Within 3 months the clutch needed replacing - it was making a horid load noise. Once repaired it didn't have the suction it had when I first got it. After I'd had it 7 months it had zero suction. After several calls to the helpline I took it in for repairs. Apparently ""reconditioned"" Dyson vaccumns only have a 6 months warranty (not a 2 year like the paperwork that came with it). I was not impressed. After paying for repairs on the brushbar I've had it back less than one week. Now the clutch has gone again - it sounds horrible. I am not impressed and do not want to sink the money into another clutch - apparently they go alot! What a complete waste of a lot of money."
99072,1,Not worth the cash,"Talk about over-hyped. I read about this band in some of the NYC press, and wanted to catch a show, but missed it. I thought I?d pick up the CD instead, and now I?m glad I missed the show.What a mess. This band is the flavor of the week. They are just another group of wannabes who got together and thought it would be fun to become rock stars. They are very lucky they are getting the press they?ve gotten. The lead male singer does have an interesting voice, but I really don?t get the point of the female in the group. (...) She seems to have no point.Don?t waste your money."
99084,1,"If you know Horner, it's nothing new","Ransom, Jumanji, Apollo 13, Braveheart, Willow, Titanic, and the Rocketeer all have one thing in common: James Horner. And yet, if you listen to the music of each one, then listen to Titanic, you can literally pick out the similarities. Titanic has nice music to it, but nevertheless, it is repetitious of his former works. In several ways, it is almost as if Horner took all his former musical scores and combined them into this one album. I like Horner's music, but artists should not continue to create if they lose their creativity and originality."
99177,1,"Flamenco? You're kidding me, right?","This is the worst thing I've ever heard. How can this group call themselves ""Flamenco""? These people don't even write their own songs! I downloaded it, thinking it was something new - however, I was wrong... It sounds like they are using guitar picks - guitar picks for flamenco - how limiting. I give this so called ""project"" an F minus for no effort or soul."
99187,1,Not customer friendly,"Too long to ship a simple book, ordered on 4-19 and as of 5-4-11 there is no indication of when the book would be shipped. I sent an email with no response from the vendor."
99264,1,OH GOSH!,"I LOVE CATHERINE DENEUVE, HOWEVER, THIS IS FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE A SWORN LOVE FOR DISCO. THE SOUNDIS VERY EURO POP AND AT THE HEIGHT OF DISCO IT WOULD HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED NOT SO GREAT THEN.LET'S GIVE CREDIT TO MS. DENEUVE FOR BRANCHING OUT AND TRYING SOMETHING NEW. GOD BLESS HER.MAYBE, IF IT WAS SUPER DUBBED AND SHE HAD A USA DISCO WIZARD TO HELP HER, THINGS WOULD HAVEBEEN DIFFERENT. INSTEAD MADONNA TOOK THAT PATH AND LOOK WHAT IT'S DONE FOR HER. I LOVE THENEW LOUIS VOUITTON ADS CATHERINE IS IN. ADD THIS TO YOUR COLLECTION, I'M SURE THIS IS A COLLECTABLE.She is also on Malcolm Mclaren's Paris album. It's not disco, But she sounds even better there.Someone said she is also on the ""Potiche"" soundtrack, a french movie that also stars Ms. Deneuve.This isn't my favorite Catherine, But I love her in many of her otherprojects."
99413,1,Mediocre Monologues,"Barely literate grammar and sloppy copy editing match this book's thin content. The book ignores masters of the genre, presents formulae for doing what everybody's doing. Some of the interviews contain useful hints, but nothing to justify purchasing or reading the book. Shame on the publisher!"
99421,1,omg,"i purchased this two weeks ago and it is dead!! it is as other reviewers had, an 'access' error. i try to turn it on and it shuts off immediately. soooooooooooooooooooo pathetic, i highly warn anyone about even considering this camera! NONONONO!"
99491,1,"Eh, ok, but has not lasted.","This has not held up, and I cannot get the company to respond about replacement parts. The black plunger warped in the dishwasher, and one of the latch arms has broken off in less than a year. It's now a really expensive paperweight. When it worked, it worked well."
99555,1,Disappointment!,"I don't really hate it. The person for whom it was bought as a Xmas present was prepared to love it. But since it was sent to an Australian address with only a US plug, it will cost almost the price of the juicer to buy a local transformer before it can be used. Info re this small detail would have been helpful! Much disappointment at this poor sales practice."
99559,1,Poor Operation at night,"I bought these lights, two sets of them, and have never been able to get them to work properly. I've tried all settings and they always end up staying on all night. You can set them for the minimum sensitivity and to only stay on for 5 minutes and after turning on and off for about two times, then they stay on all night. The dual bright feature is just about worthless as I think even air movement turns them to the bright setting. I would not buy these for a motion sensing light. I have another type of motion sensing light made by Heath Zenith that is a minimum of 10 yrs old and they work perfectly and always have. That's why I thought these would be good, but they're not."
99575,1,just a cheap backboard,save up for something of better quality. plastic housing around plexiglass is not going to hold up. was shipped the next day if ya live in the phoenix area was the only plus
99576,1,Too scary for children...,"This book should come with a warning label -- may be too scary for children. The graphic information about shark attacks is just too much for children under 10, unless you want to encourage nightmares and fear of the water. Parents -- carefully preview this book before presenting it to your children. Even though it is very appealing for the young, it may be too much information for the targeted age group."
99615,1,New Book that was NOT a new Book,Simply put - I purchased this Astronomy book through Amazon because the price was the same as elsewhere but I would save on shipping. I expected a NEW book but received a Used Book in good condition.The Book itself so far seems well laid out and interesting but the course I am taking has just reached the 1/3 mark toward completion.
99629,1,Will make a better movie...,The first 175 pages really were quick but then the descriptions of the different floors and layout of the hotel easily became lost. I had no overall sense of any layout once they moved beyond the 2nd floor. This definately detracted from the book since so much of the later part of the book really focuses on where the bad guy is in relation to the good guys. Too bad. That's why I think this will make a better movie -- but only if marketed as a thriller versus horror.
99682,1,Couldn't Download Software for New Printer,"I purchased my HP Officejet 5610 on 2/28/2007, and it took me a over a week (hours!) before I was able in download the software and use it. I continued to receive an error message ""The copy function cannot be used"". The same thing happened with the HP printer I previously used at home. HP support was quick with providing responses but unfortunately the steps provided were not exactly what I had to do to successfully complete this task. My next personal printer will not be an HP!"
99705,1,"AccuMassage broke quickly, DaVinci is very firm","The AccuMassage was *great*, but it broke within a week or two, right where a handle threaded into the ""massage"" part, so the design appears to be rather weak. The DaVinci tool is large enough that it wasn't comfortable to use anywhere but my neck when resting on the floor (as the pictures suggest). It could possibly work on top of a bed, with a pillow.In the end, after buying these (and other expensive) self-massage tools, I've gone back to using a pair of tennis or lacrosse balls taped together to work up and down my spine, and tennis ball in a sock (as a handle) to maneuver into small, painful areas. For larger areas, I use a foam-padded PVC pipe (to replace the foam roller that compressed unevenly). You might want to try these inexpensive alternatives for self-massage. I don't recommend this set of tools."
99713,1,Do not waste your money!,"This movie was absolutely horrible! Even for a kids movie, it was unbearable. My children could't wait to see it since we missed it in the theatres. We didn't even finish it. They thought it was stupid, thank god because I couldn't take it anymore. Glad it only cost me a few bucks from home, I would have walked out of the theatre otherwise and been out a lot more money."
99715,1,I honesty didn't get this movie,"I'm 46. Grew up with the Muppets. I love them. I didn't like this movie and honestly I don't understand what other people like about it. It's not a good movie at all. The only thing it has going for it is nostalgia. As a movie the story is weak, the music numbers with minor exceptions are super flat. I went in expecting awesome from all the hype. I would have been happy if it was just so-so but for me it was just bad. Bad writing, bad story, bad music. Nothing.Maybe I'll watch it again in 10 years and change my opinion. I want to be believe though that rather, all the people that like it now will watch in again in 10 years and wonder what they were thinking."
99745,1,1.5 hours of my life wasted.,"Seriously, this whole movie could have been condensed down to 5 minutes. There was no plot, it was extremely boring, had lame acting and ideas were stolen from youtube & ripped off from Castaway. There was a lot of fluff. Not worth watching. First Chipmunks was great, Second was decent, this one terrible. Typical trilogy. Plus, I didn't like the way disobedience was glorified in this film."
99758,1,Don't waste your time or money,"This digital camera is awful. My 11 year old daughter received this camera for Christmas also. Last night when we went to download the pictures, we found that it did not come with a Cd-driver. But after a few minutes of trying to get it to download via another program that I have, we found that it wouldn't have mattered anyway since the batteries(which were new at Christmas) in the camera had died and all of the pictures were lost. My daughter was heartbroken to find out that all the pictures she had taken at Christmas were gone.There is also no LCD screen to view pictures taken. But I guess you get what you pay for, and I won't be wasting my time or money on these cheap items again."
99811,1,Don't Buy,Could not get it to work with an old HP laser printer and a windows 7 computer. HP does not make a driver for it that you can download.
99818,1,Laboriously drawn-out for a book so loosely structured.,"Naipaul overdid it with this 500+ page book that wanders through snippets of countless stories, but never dwells long enough in any of them. The book is valuable for the slices of East Indian life revealed, but its charm wore off halfway through. I would recommend looking elsewhere for Indian material. A novel would have continuity of plot and character, whereas this had only the continuity of pulling the rug out from underneath the reader again and again"
99831,1,Paper Tray Empty,"My only complaint is that I am unable to print anything. After 4 1/2 weeks of perfect pictures, reports, every media imaginable - I am now unable to print. Always reads Paper tray empty. I have sat on the phone with HP Support for 30+ minutes trying to remedy the problem. I was finally told that I must be using inferior paper. (What does that mean?) I will return this printer today. This is my 2nd 3210 - the first one had fatal ink error and would not load the software."
99896,1,Disappointed.,I really tried to give this movie a chance because I have watched all the other Batman movies but I just couldn't get into this one. I don't know if it was the darkness of the plot or the darkness of the movie itself (pitch black throughout the whole movie) but I got bored and finally turned it off after about an hour and a half.
99914,1,The Dark Blight,"This film is easily the weakest of the 3. It is well acted and has good production values, but fails to entertain due to a bloated running time, weak villains, lack of batman, superfluous side characters and numerous plot holes.If you stopped at the end of the previous film, you wouldn't regret it. It's the film you need to complete a trilogy, but not the one you deserve as a fan. It's ultimately disappointing."
99957,1,Epic Fail,This movie sucked... Already wasn't a Batman fan and this just gave me a better reason why I shouldn't be. This movie was 90% talking and 10% slow paced old man fighting. Horrible Movie!!! Don't waste your money!!!
99997,1,No Darn Good!,"Now that we know this is an interview CD, I am glad I didn't spend the money to buy it. At better than 14 bucks, this CD is too expensive for a collection of interviews. I'll wait until the Beatles ""Greatest Hits"" CD is released later this fall.One question remains: Just how were the Beatles copying Styx in this spoken word CD?"
100024,1,Boring beyond belief,I pushed myself to finish this book and I couldn't believe that no matter how hard I pushed further along it never got better. As I finished the last paragraph of the book I was so disappointed at how terrible the story was. I am a John Grishim fan and I have read all his books and I knew this story was going to be something different for him but I never thought the book would be as boring as it turned out. I hope they don't make school children read this novel or they may give up reading all together.
100038,1,A Painted House,"This book should have been named ""Watching Paint Dry."" I found it very boring. It was astounding that a 7 year old boy could witness so much in a such a brief time span. His narration of it made it very hard to believe that we were seeing this story through his eyes. He was much older in his observations and thoughts than his chronological age would convey. The plot never really pulled together for me. It was a waste of time. I am not a Grisham fan, but gave him another chance because a friend told me this one was ""different."" Maybe a different story line, but the same mediocre writiing style."
100083,1,T-Fal Vitesse Electric Kettle - Shoddy Product,"I purchased a T-Fal Vitesse electric kettle ten years ago and loved it. This model, however, literally stinks. It has a terrible plastic smell that permeates any liquid which is heated within it. Just open the lid and take a deep breath and you realize that something isn't right. I even question whether or not it is a genuine T-Fal product since the name is mis-spelled ""Vitesses"" instead of ""Vitesse"". I hope it's a rip-off because it would be a real shame for T-Fal to be selling unusable crap like this. Made in China, of course."
100086,1,does not shut off automatically,"when temperature knob was on low or mid (not boiling for tea) it shut off. when you put it past 1/2 way to where you would ""normally"" boil for tea it kept boiling endlessly and cause water build up, etc. on my cabinets. very dangerous. tried many times. returned product."
100181,1,calcium,The label information for this product was not made available by Amazon. I took a chance and ordered anyway. Now I am disappointed because when I got the product and read the label I found way too many additives.
100205,1,.....,"Typical metalcore. Average mediocre musical skills. Highly unoriginal. How they can be called thrash or be compared to the big thrash of 4 (Slayer, Anthtrx, Metallica and Megadeth) perplexes my mind. Screaming screamo vocals. Matt Heafy is trying too hard. The CD cover is so emo-ish.I love metal, don't get me wrong. But this is NOT metal. It insults the metal genre. Emo/Screamo and metal are two totally different genres and to fuse them together and think you're original is a sin."
100308,1,why ?,I dont know why I thought a calculator watch costin less than 20 bucks would be of any use and recomend you do not buy this as it is basicly useless except for possibly as a dificult to read watch
100363,1,a flash of insight doth not a book make,"This book is based on the observation that, for better or worse, we make decisions in the blink of an eye and that the ability to ""thin slice"" information is often crucial for timely action. This is all well and good, but I was hoping for information on how to cultivate this skill, avoid misusing it, etc. All the book gives is example after example, after example. Might be worth reading if you've never thought about it before."
100368,1,Disappointed.............,"I felt this book came as a highly rated ""Bestseller"" but I find I am disappointed. While I haven't completely finished the book yet it seems to contain several very long descriptive stories of how people behave according to their preconceived ideas. An interesting phenomena, but it gets beaten to death by the author. I have just received my order of ""Outliers"" and hope I enjoy it more than this one."
100417,1,Makes light of bullying and manic depressive disese,This film is simply awful. Anyone who has suffered through workplace bullying and a resulting manic-depressive episode knows it is never this easy - Joe declares himself cured based on one visit by the wellness supervisor. It is is so superificial as to be dangerous. I have not had an episode of depression in months but this movie almost got me there - I had to switch it off in the middle!
100440,1,"A Nabokov fan, disillusioned by this book","Before I first encountered STRONG OPINIONS, I was a Nabokov fan. Reading this collection, however, changed my view of him for good. The man's weird animus against literally hundreds of major authors (Cervantes, Camus, Balzac, Mann, Stendhal, Lorca, Faulkner--you name 'em!) is terribly mean-spirited and small. His attacks on Freud get tiresome, and one begins to wonder if he ever did read much Freud in any depth. He also goes after other leading thinkers and even lets fly against, in his words, ""Einstein's slick formulae"" (I'm really quoting). And his defense of the U.S. war on Vietnam is incredibly ignorant and simplistic, even stupid. Nabokov the artist was a major presence who altered the shape of literature. Nabokov the man, by contrast, was a nasty, dogmatic, narrow-minded little fellow who couldn't countenance any aesthetic but his own.I'm not the only Nabokovophile who has had this ""conversion."" I know several others who've had the same experience."
100470,1,A Complete Waste of Time,"I watched this when it debuted on MTV. It's stupid. It's nothing but a MOVIE! They based the movie--or dramatic reinactment--on actual footage recovered from the guy who kidnapped the Real World cast. Well, you never see any real footage.I strongly recommend this to someone who just wants to see a POOR,... movie about the a season of the Real World gone wrong...no one dies either.If the DVD has original footage...then I give it 2 stars because, quite frankly...no one cares."
100482,1,poor product,"unfortunately I purchased this as a gift and it was a great disappointment. Even tried ordering it a second time, with the hope the first one was just a fluke... WRONG! Terrible product and shipped the replacement one back as fast as we discovered the same issues .. poor contacts with the control buttons. I was embarrassed by the poor quality of this 'gift.STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT AND MANUFACTURER."
100534,1,Lost and Found,Was given a godd review on Sunday Morning. Fair to poor at best. Should return to his former carpentry job!
100561,1,Disappointing and Prosaic,"Before buying this video, I had read the plot and it sounded intriguing. This is a movie that I would recommend you rent before you buy it. In the two or three times I've watched this I've been very disappointed in it. It's not the acting, the movie just doesn't seem to go anywhere. Some of director Werner Herzog's movies tend to be like this one, in that they don't match up to what they should've. This movie is hard to get into and it's a choir sitting through the whole thing. The only thing I found that was of any interest was the scene in the glass factory when they were trying to make the ruby glass. Disappointing."
100573,1,Pathetic lives,"I wasn't crazy about this movie. It's more like an exploration of desperate people in a pathetic part of rural America. It's about how all the people in this situation can't escape from their situation. The plot involves Jennifer Aniston's attempt to find love through a crazy affair and find a new life. Sometimes though it gets a bit too depressing.The acting isn't great. Jennifer Aniston tries to come across as a redneck with a southern accent, but just sounds odd. Jake Gyllenhaal is a bit too odd and psychotic. Oddly enough, I thought John C. Reilly, otherwise known for playing moronic clowns (like Step Brothers), actually fits his role really well."
100664,1,Why bother?,"It looks dumb, I mean you just style the hair and stuff! And why waste your money on something your kid will give away eventually!"
100801,1,"looks alright, but doesn't hold up",This costume ripped and fell apart within a few minutes of my son putting it on....and no..my kid isn't a fattie.
100802,1,caution,"I purchased this costume for my 4 and a half year-old son and he loved it the minute he saw it.HOWEVER, the minute he put on the mask he had a scratch under his eye and his chin from the CHEAPLY made mask.The edges are dangerously sharp, so please warn your child when they play with it.I had to take some clear tape and smooth out the eye holes and the chin and nose of the mask to make it less dangerous.The costume itself is super thin and it is already unraveling.I was hoping it would last until the 31st of October, but there is no way it will.It is poorly made and my son dresses up in it all the time.CAUTION:If you decide to purchase this costume for your child, examine the mask for sharp edges around the eye, nose, and mouth/chin opening.My son loves it. However, I would NEVER buy this again, nor would I recommend that anyone buys it. It is not worth the price."
100858,1,Someone Tell T.I. Game Over,"Lil Flip Is The New King Of The South ScarFace Move OverAnd For T.I. You Never Where Close From Being The King, You Just a Gold Artist And You Will Stay That Way. GAME OVER"
100861,1,Upset,"As a baby-sitters club fan, I was completley and totally upset about finding out about the real Dawn. Dawn was my favorite charecter. Now I don't even buy the books anymore."
100883,1,Bad Batteries,I installed one battery out of the first pack and it only lasted one week. I tried replacing the battery with the second one from the pack and the battery did not work at all. I opened the second pack and installed one of the batteries. That battery has been working over a month. I did not try to get a replacement pack. I figured it was more trouble than it was worth. I would not order again. The date on the pack was 2006. I do not know if that is an expiration date or not.
100888,1,Wrong Product,I am sure the batteries are fine but these are replacement batteries that Amazon recommended for a dog training collar that I bought. Unfortunately they are the wrong batteries.
100925,1,Heartbreakingly horrible.,"I was so excited to see this. The first few minutes (poking fun at Fox) were giddy glee. Then the ""story"" began.It just plain was not compelling. It felt like if you asked a machine to write a Futurama episode. The characters and jokes and themes were all there, but it seemed like a fake sendup of Futurama.Heartbreakingly horrible."
101027,1,I don't ever want to see this movie again!,"As one reviewer said below, this is one movie you only need to see once...and once is enough! I don't know why I was able to stomach ""Sister My Sister""--another movie based on the same events--and not this one."
101054,1,the Ron Jeremy of rap,"Yeah, he the Ron Jeremy, but thinner. Thinner everywhere. But longer. Mane, I sucked that mutated dill pickle till my mouf was bruised. You know how you take that Ready Whip out tha fridge and fill ya grill wit white fluffiness? Well, I filled up off the TIP of tha real king of da south, but ain't nan fluffy. Stuff looked like Cetaphil, tasted like sardine juice, and sealed my damn throat like super glue. It was like them nasty Cadbury eggs you get at easter, wit that yolk ya dig? Luda too cold, and that ish too warm. I must be some sort of maskocist, too, caused I tossed that salad (wipe, mane!) Ain't no holdin tha dressin neither! What was that anyway, Chris, salty Ranch? I'm just playin, we still cool. Yo, represent our culture though, I know the world ready."
101087,1,Just didn't work for me,"Was quite dissapointed in this product. My friend told me it was wonderful and I have read many great reviews on here so I didn't hesitate to purchase. After using it for about a month my hair is nothing but split ends! Quite dissapointed. I have such a hard time finding good products for my hair, so far I have found Bumble & Bumble, & Pureology - I keep looking for others out there but no luck so far!"
101108,1,Makita Blade,Terrible blade. Lasted about 15 cuts on 2 inch wall tile before teeth started to break off. Way to expensive for that.
101119,1,TOO SHORT,"Being that there is only one episode on the DVD, my 4 yr old son thought it was too short. They should combine both episodes on one DVD to make it worth the price."
101147,1,Not Good,"I ordered a NEW book --the one I received was Used and had a torn cover. So I could not give it as a gift to a sick friend. It came overnight which was better than expected, but it was and is useless. I've given up with Amazon and trying to talk to someone. When you buy there now it's Pot Luck."
101149,1,"Poor story, not very entertaining","I couldn't get all the way through Hiaasen's latest. The characters weren't believable, the plot lame (supposedly dead wife meets lay-about ex-policeman, hatches plot to harass her ""murderer"" husband). I not only didn't laugh at any of it, I didn't crack a smile. I love a good read but this one certainly doesn't deserve the rave reviews. I won't try this author again."
101193,1,Don't buy if you like to wash in the dishwasher!,"One wash in the dishwasher top shelf and this egg slicer was toast. All the shiny metal turned into a gray/black oxidated metal. The only thing that didn't oxidize was the actual slicer. I guess that is the only part that is stainless steel, this rest must be untreated, unprotected aluminum. Even after scrubbing as much of the black residue off as I could, it still rubbed off onto my hands. Only buy this if you plan to handwash it!"
101218,1,not a mystery,"This is a story about the 2 most beautiful people in the world, and one is also one of the richest! Wow- I can really relate to that-not. I thought this book involved a mstery or some intriguing story plot. It did not. It was all about the leading characters feelings of lust. Some great sex, some good misunderstandings, and a stupid kidnap thrown in to happily reunite the beautiful couple. This book should be listed under romance- any other story line is totally incidental."
101352,1,Not recommended for beginners!!!,This book is written as if the reader already had knowledge of Latin. I do not recommend it for those just beginning their study. It gives long and hard to understand explanations and gives very little exercise in a skill before moving on to something else. This book should be used to review Latin . . . not to learn it!
101412,1,Wil eventually work,"Have yet to actually see this work yet. I have had issues with the computer I bought this for, so it hasn't worked yet. I installed it on my new computer, and it ""shows"" that it's working, but no through-put yet. Reinstalled the old D-link 10/100 and it works fine. Have not had a lot of time to work it through yet, but I'm sure it will. Troubleshooting guide on the disk will most definitely help much more than the ""online help menu"", since this gadget really needs to be working to get you to the ""online help menu to start with."
101469,1,Uma Thurman in Teen Movie Hell,"Even at the tender age of sixteen, Uma Thurman has the good sense not to appear very much in this death-rattle of a teen flick. Anthony Michael Hall, impressive as a nerd in The Breakfast Club appears to have been living on cow pie ever since, and has filled out to become a most ungainly quarterback. Some colleges try to recruit him. He eventually realise this is a bad thing, and money isn't everything. Ho hum. Funniest bit was realising that people ... now think that the geek is attractive."
101470,1,Bush's Brain,"This film stinks because it is a lie. It cuts down the president in time for the election. It is slanted and untruthful. It portrays our intelligent, strong, and integrity filled presidentas a puppet."
101485,1,Totally hate it!,"This is one of the worst movies ever made! I always enjoy watching H. Ford , but in this movie... Please don't waste your time watching this trash!"
101513,1,one use broken,i used the grill for the first time and the grate holder cracked food fell to floor I would not recommend this cheaply made grill made in china
101577,1,Okay as a watch-terrible as a heart rate monitor,"Don't buy this asa a heart rate monitor. Although I understand this is not an expensive, high end model; it does not perform like it should. It takes 10+ seconds to register if it registers a heart rate at all. Half the time it registers a rate that is so obviously wrong that I stopped using it completely. This is not worth the $."
101645,1,Bad,The last 2 episodes are the worst. Some say it is good but I think it the worst episodes in any anime I ever saw. Therefore I am waiting for the movie to come and It is a great anime but some of the episodes in the anime takes 1 star as for the last 2 episodes.
101654,1,Interesting,"I received my Kindle DX one week ago and the first thing I wanted to download was the NIV Bible. I had read all of the reviews and decided that it was indeed good. Well, it says it is not available yet. Now my question is 'how can people have it and review it if it is now available'? Just found this interesting!"
101700,1,"You can't ""provoke"" your partner to beat you","Wow, I was planning to order this book, but then I read the first few pages, available here at Amazon. Right away we hear about a woman - presumably one with Borderline Personality Disorder - who regularly ""provokes"" her husband to hit her. (We have already heard that this man likes to choose her clothes for her and control how she behaves which is classic Domestic Violence behavior.) Really?? She ""provokes"" him to hit her?? And I see from other reviews here that the book is full of lots of this. Ugh. I'm really glad I saw this before ordering the book."
101701,1,Chapter 1,"I don't know if this book will be any help to you but it was NOT to me...My wife only read the 1st chapter, ""I HATE YOU..."" and then she stopped...I think she found her answer :)"
101702,1,I found this book to be very negative.,I have BPD and did not find this book to be helpful. It was extremely negative. The persons suffering with this disorder were portrayed as manipulative and very difficult. These people caused so much pain and suffering for others. I felt horrible after seeing myself described this way. There is a continium of severity of symptoms. We are not all like the patients portrayed in the book. I was very disturbed by the bleak outlook on the possibility of recovery. My psychiatrist and I discussed the book and my reaction. He said that other patients had similar reactions.
101719,1,depressing writer,"i had given up on this writer years ago as one of the most bad tempered, crotchety, and ill-advised that i had ever read, but when this popped up at my library as an ebook i figured i would give it a try. my first impression stands. i have never been to the UK; i might yet. i won't be reading Theroux again, though. why on earth such a cantankerous man decided on travel at all, much less travel writing, continues to elude me."
101728,1,"Love the Album, Hate the Remaster","I was SO looking forward to hearing this remastered CD because War is by far my favorite U2 album, largely because it was my introduction to the band back in the early 80s. I was also really looking forward to the remaster because I always thought that the original War album sounded incredibly tinny with very little low end. I was hoping the remaster would fix this, but it really does not. What a bummer! One listen to Sunday Bloody Sunday shows how little ""bottom"" there is to this remaster (and the original). When the bass guitar finally kicks in at about 0:30, you have to listen to hear it practically. The bass simply has no punch on the remaster. Despite this I still love the album, but I hate the remaster. Don't buy this just for the remaster."
101769,1,Not worth it,"Granted I am only on page 109, but probably won't finish it. I am usually the type who must finish a book once started, bit I won't waste my time with this one. It is poorly written with a halting storyline. There is a gratuitous amount of exclamation points that is extremely obnoxious. I actually skip the end of sentences just to avoid them. Don't bother reading this, there is much better fantasy out there."
101817,1,Not So Great,"You have to remember what makes Jon Stewart funny on TV. It is not only his lines, but his delivery and accompanying facial expressions. Some of the vignettes in this book could be funny with his delivery. Some would not be even amusing with Mr. Stewart delivering them at his best.The book is made up of various vignettes about people living, dead and fictitious. I found some mildly amusing (like Bill Gates and some of the Jewish humor), some awful (cult leader) and some that were amazingly dated for a 1999 publication (the Hansens).Even if you are a big Stewart fan I think you will find yourself skipping and skimming through much of this book. My advice would be to close the book and watch ""The Daily Show""."
101826,1,"Has an off-taste, weak","I was really excited by Better Than Bouillon. Especially when making risotto, I have been searching for a good chicken bouillon to make life easier.Preparing it is very simple, and the jar sits easily in the fridge.The taste is, however, lack luster. I found myself adding extra just to get any real flavor, and even then, there was no strong chicken taste. Didn't serve to heighten the flavors, or add aroma.Given the high price (and the Amazon price is higher than in many stores), this isn't worth it. Knorr's very salty bouillon is still better."
101932,1,"Plus size isn't very ""plus""","Admittedly, I run into this a lot with all kinds of stockings and pantyhose. I was hoping for an inexpensive pair for one occasion, but they didn't fit my thighs at all. I know I have large thighs, that's why I ordered plus size, but it needs more stretch at the top to actually work. Can't speak to the quality of the actual stockings as I was unable to actually wear them."
102014,1,Borrow it,"I was looking forward to reading this book by many very goodauthors, but was disappointed. The story line reallydidn't make much sense to me, too many mistakes. I'm gladI didn't buy."
102018,1,"cute, but didnt last long",These were deff. cute! But I was dissapointed because I only got to wear them once before the tore. But they were very cheap.
102053,1,Crap to the 10th power,"The posters giving this album 4 and 5 star reviews are obviously under the age of 17 or under the influence. Judging by some of these incoherent rambling reviews. This album does not constitute real Hip Hop or even music for that matter. I'm sorry but I smelled a gimmick from a mile away with this group since Creepin'. A friend of mine let me listen to this cd thinking that I actually might like it and want to burn it. Needless to say, after listening to a few tracks I concluded that it wasn't even burn-worthy. If your a real hip hop head you won't enjoy listening to this undecipherable rubbish. Skip this and listen to Nas, Jada, or Common because this is just utter watered down slop."
102077,1,WHAT A HUGE LET DOWN,I have been a Jovi fan since 1984!!!! Can't believe how terrible this CD is. Wait for the next one maybe they will get back on track.
102121,1,Am I supposed to be learning Javascript?,"I've got a real problem with this traditional-computer science approach of learning all about variables and structure but nothing that you can actually use.I had to actually RETURN this book, because it was such a waste. Little examples or real code, make it only good in ""theory"" and not in practice. You can do MUCH better.Look, books don't seem to be doing a very good job. If you want to learn Javascript, goto Yahoo.com and search for Javascript tutorial. I've just tried a few, but in an hour or two I've learned 20x as much as trying to read the book."
102181,1,boring.,This book is really boring. The only cool thing about it was that it referenced my teacher who taught my class. Other than that I thought it was mind-numbingly awful.
102216,1,Sound spoils the Show,"What should have been a wonderful overview of Linda Ronstadt's early career is ruined by poor quality mastering, which makes her gorgeous voice sound like she's singing through a brick wall. Looks like I'll have to fork out again for the Rhino records 2002 best of version which reportedly sounds much better. The same goes for Volume 2."
102230,1,"A few inspired moments, but not nearly enough...","Who invited Michael Bolton?There are a few inspired moments in this holiday presentation, but Bolton does not provide them... It is clear he has had no serious vocal training and looks visibly uncomfortable when he actually has to stretch himself beyond soulful wailing in numbers such as ""Fum, Fum, Fum."" Domingo and Huang hold their own nicely, though Domingo's own composition is forgettable. Bolton's ""Joy to the World"" is abysmal, clearly the worst part of the concert, which you can see from the looks on Domingo and Huang's faces. On a brighter note, Steven Mercurio is fantastic and vibrant as ever."
102254,1,Desperate for a hit album!,"Poor Mariah, where has the talent gone? I had high hopes for this cd after the unfair treatment that was ""glitter"" and the mellow though consistent ""charmbracelet"". ""mimi"" is nothing more than a desperate attempt to relive the glory days of a once blossomed career. Why is every song ruined by guest rappers and hip hop? (to the floor,its like that).where is the vocals? where is the stand out uniqueness of earlier Mariah gems...""butterfly"" ""daydream"" etc. Mariah's desperate attempt to have ""street cred"" (circles,stay the night)has over shadowed all of the songs on here. This is a horrid cd that is over produced (joyride)and way too calculated(mine again) Pity cause Mariah was once a real talent. May i suggest an accapella record next time...just ""the voice"" and instruments would be nice...leave the rappers at home! A shame! D-"
102264,1,MIMI,Okay so there is one great song on this album but honestly there is a lot of hype over the entire album. It honestly sounds as if it was produced very fast and just given great PR to promote it. I can not deny that she has a great voice however the fact of the matter is that the production of the songs for the most part are very boring. She was great during her first and second albums. Im sorry I purchased this based on the hype. :(
102265,1,Washed-Up Has Been,"Mariah was good in her prime. Soon, she started to become ""black"" when she is more white than a ghost. On this album, she lines herself up with every rapper in the universe and still manages to sing off-key and sing bad lyrics. ""We Belong Together"" is the only good song on this album. To all the ""lambs"" out there: sorry! Going to J-Lo's or Madonna's forums to post bad stuff can't take away from Mariah's downfall."
102283,1,Dont press ANYTHING,"Leave it int he CD wrapper and take it back.""Press Play"" is an exact mirror of just how wack the state of hip hop is. Okay, it's not fair to label this a true hip-hop album and I can't bear to even label this a rap album. Diddy is a ""popular"" producer/entertainer. With that in mind, I can see his album doing well as a ""pop"" album.Personally, I don't like it. I pressed play...then skip, skip a few more times, rewind, then skipped a few more times.I'll give it another spin in a week or two."
102308,1,Edelbrock Poor customer service,"These brake lines do not fit an F53 RV chassis. The front lines are too short. Edelbrock will not answer their phone. The phone is in a constant ""busy"" loop. They do not publish the hose lengths making it impossible to know whether they'll fit prior to ordering. The fact that these do not fit has caused many complications in my business schedule and the RV owner's schedule for travel. Very BAD Edelbrock. For anyone looking for F53 RV brake hoses, Ford has discontinued them and they cannot be found anywhere. The hoses listed in aftermarket auto parts stores do not fit either as they are 6"" too short also."
102312,1,DVD's not original,"The DVD's were not original....All original DVD's come in dual layer format(DVD9, 7-8 GB). These were single layer DVD's(around 4.35 GB)....Moreover, all DVD's had a melted glass like substance near the center, which I think was some sort of manufacturing defect. I suspected that these are not original, so returned the package.The seller however was co-operative and made an immediate refund. Hence the 2nd star.If you buy, do confirm that the DVD's are dual layer.-Nikhil"
102330,1,Disappointed me and it is not worth its money!,"This book is of type, learn processing XML in C++ in 24 hours.It started out well with decent explanation of SAX and DOM (I personally feel any good c++ programmer can figure the algorithms himself). After that it completely lost track. If some one know the table of contents, he can probably search on google to find articles and bind them to make a book. xml_rpc example was directly copied from the original samples of xml_rpc implementation. For examples, the author kept on jumping from one XML parser to another one. I understand why he did that (because all existing C++ xml parsers lack some thing or other). He probably must have written chapters on XSLT, XPath, XMLRPC, SOAP in a lot of hurry to get the book done."
102415,1,REVIEW,"Songs listed for this CD did not match actual songs on the CD. However, it was received in good condition and in a timely manner."
102433,1,"Very good songs, Terrible Collection","This CD totally ruined some good songs. Although I am not a fan of Madonna, I have liked her some songs like ""Crazy for you"", ""Live to tell"". That is why I bought this cd. But oh, gosh. The sound quality is horrible. Listen to the original sound track of ""Vision quest""(I mean ""Crazy for you""). Then try the song in this cd. If you are not dumb, you will know how bad the sound quality of this. Why they did that? They want me to buy her previous albums again? Crazy-for-Money persons."
102437,1,HORRIBLE,"MADONNA IS THE WORST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED IN MUSIC WORLD.SHE IS TACKY, HAS NO TALENT.NOW THAT SHE'S A MOM,SHE SHOULD STAY HOME."
102465,1,Two Thumbs Down,"I used to be very much into Pokemon but now that i'm a lot older I realize it is just a game for little kids. I'll admit that the old games were pretty fun... When I was younger! I'm not trying to dis Pokemon for the older people but seriously, come on guys, leave Pokemon and go get some real RPG. The graphics on this suck. Just go play some Golden Sun or like the new one! Even Yu-Gi-Oh! is a little intimidating. Again, I'm not trying to make fun of it but its just horrible..."
102476,1,I wasted some money here...,Zelda ww is so boring i hate it. The graphics even my little kids didnt like em theyre for youngsters.
102518,1,DON'T BUY THIS OVERPRICED TERRIBLE PRODUCT,The mount made by Dension vibrates violently. This is not vibration from my car. I have a new Audi A4. I'mworried that my iPOD is going to break internally from all the motion. Would be better to just lay the i Podon my dash or above ashtray. One of the big selling points of this product involves the controls. You aresuppose to be able to control the iPOD with your stock Audi car stereo. But it only allows you to use 6playlists. Who in the world has only six playlists. What were these people thinking when they designed thisproduct!? Had no idea that this was the case until I purchased the product and had it installed. Do yourselfa favor. Buy an aftermarket car stereo that has a direct plug-in for the iPOD that you can control with theiPOD.
102572,1,Did Anyone Fact-Check This Book?,"When I read on page 39 of ""composer Moss Hart,"" husband of Kitty Carlisle Hart, I knew author Deborah Davis didn't know her stuff. Moss Hart was a great American playwright, a Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright, in fact. He was also a great director. The original Broadway productions of ""My Fair Lady"" and ""Camelot,"" to name two of his successes. He was never a composer. Did anyone fact-check this book?"
102658,1,pretentious masterbation,"yes, we know how good they are at guitar and we know that they are latino. if only they haddnt abandoned the brilliant song structes they created with ATDI and the overall fluidity that they once possesed, this album might be credible. if you want to hear wailing guitars, get a stevie ray vauhn album, and if you want to hear progresive music, listen to Yes. if you want to beleive that the mars volta are doing something new and extremely impressive, get stoned and lsiten to their album while sniffing rails off of the cd cover. otherwise, its just an albums worth of guitar masterbation and fake words."
102778,1,Self help book,it was a gift from a friend and I really didn't care for it. I don't care for much of self help books.
102818,1,Boring.,"Very disappointed with this movie. Most of the reviews sounded promising. The movie sucked!!!! So after wasted $10, we decided to order Playboy Channel for $16 a month. Now thats adult Entertainment!!!"
102854,1,Too small for swaddling,"My biggest complaint about these blankets it that with rounded corners, they are too small for swaddling, which is what we primarily needed them for. By comparison, the Wamsutta blankets, which are supposed to be the same dimensions, are much more suitable for swaddling."
102864,1,"Unreliable, cheaply made, poor design","I purchased this heart rate monitor and it has been collecting dust on my shelf ever since. It's completely unreliable as it rarely picks up my heartrate for any extended period of time, even after wetting the electrodes. The electrodes are tiny compared with any Polar brand model. Obviously, not much $ and thought when into the monitor's design. The watch is huge and ugly. For this amount of money, you would do much better buying a Polar FS1 which is just about the same price. That's what I did and I am thrilled with the Polar monitor!"
102943,1,Great deal.....if you want part of the collection!,"Now as much as I ""love"" these crappy movies, when I buy a set on blu-ray, or dvd for that matter I expect for the whole thing to be there. I have back to the future... all 3 movies are there. I have robocop... all 3 of them. F&F... 3 of the 4. So now I can buy this and have ""some"" of the collection, or wait until they sell through these and make a 4 pack. I'll wait ;)"
102950,1,Christy H.,"I received this blanket as a gift after registering for it. I washed it once (following wash instructions) to prepare for our upcoming new addition and it is already off grain, not perfectly square as it was to begin with. I can see that the chenille is not going to hold up well either."
102977,1,Could have done without the leaf it came with,"Let me start off by saying I love HALO sleep sacks have used them for a year now with my son. I have nothing against this actual product but more so with how it arrived.I find it difficult to believe that this product was new. The plastic wrapping was broken in places with tape keeping it closed. The sleep sack itself had a leaf, yes a leaf, on it within the packing. For the price of this item I expect that I am getting a brand new item not one that has already been opened. I don't feel the hassle of returning it and ordering another would really be worthwhile so I threw the item in the wash and will use it once it's dry.So in a nutshell, like the product wish I received one that hadn't previously been opened previously."
102982,1,Definitely not worth the money!,"After reading the five star review that is on this site, I couldn't wait to read this book. As an already accomplished professional contemplating a return to medical school, I thought that this book would give me the information I needed in order to start off on the right foot. Unfortunately, this was not the case.This book is nothing more than a series of interviews with non-traditional students who have matriculated at Northwestern. I found the information included to be confusing and quite often contradictory. To be honest, I have found more useful information in the general information guides which are written for your standard college student."
103044,1,"Once you break the wired remote, you're out of luck.","These speakers have a very bad flaw in their design, namely, that the audio cable attached to the wired remote is irreplaceable. If you stretch the cable while plugging it into an audio jack, you are out of luck because Logitech does not sell replacement wired remotes separately. I now have $150 of worthless speakers sitting in my room."
103098,1,Book,One-sided reporting. Doesn't give true accounts and records of the rise and accounts of female offenders. Look for government research on internet for more accurate information.
103115,1,Tired twinkles,"Rather dull exercise in early staged symphonic electronica either wallows in uninspired repetition or bombastically relays scattershot ideas, all under a five movement pretense."
103237,1,Mislead,i thought this was a DVD.... Not a book. It didn't say anywhere in advertisement that this was a book.
103252,1,One word HORRIBLE,This is the worst album I have bought since the Ghetto Commision [what would you know another No Limit release].NLR isn't the same as it used to be the beats are very slow in some songs and there is no bass what so ever. Then on the J.Dupri song Jermaine sounds ok but it sounds to much like a dance song for MP. If I were you I'd save my money til Dec. 7 and buy Juvenles c.d. I can now honestly say that Cash Money is the army that No Limit used to be.
103253,1,Sounds Familiar,"I completely agree with whoever said that Master P is trying to be like Pac. Don? (Kaluminati) , Only god can judge me? You can't copy a legend, SORRY"
103304,1,Blue topaz ring,This is much smaller than I expected and there is a cut mark where the two ends of the band came together instead of it being one solid piece.
103368,1,get faiths and avatars instead,"faiths and avatars and demihuman deities come up with better kits/specialty priests. personally, i prefer that the campaign filler stuff come at the end of the book instead of at the front but that's just me. for me the book didn't seem to ignite an interest in the priest class as much as the other two books."
103391,1,DvanD Fan,"I've bought 5 copies of Season Five and each one has had a problem. I had to return them all. Seasons 1-4 play great but I've had the same problems that others have had with Season Five(image breaks apart, DVD stops etc.) and it's really frustrating.I don't blame Amazon. I have a really high end DVD player too so I don't blame Sony either.I wish Image would fix the problem, I'd like to own a copy Season Five of the Dick Van Dyke Show that is the quality of the first four seasons."
103428,1,"junk, keep looking","I bought this heated blanket for my wife as a gift. Don't make the same mistake. It works so poorly that we're thinking about sending it back. The heat is very weak, and concentrated in only a couple spots. The power attachment is poorly designed and when the blanket is moved around at all it detaches very easily. Low quality all around. I had a Sunbeam before (dog chewed up the power cord) and had better luck with that one."
103469,1,What a pointless movie,"Having seen so many good reviews about this movie, I even pre-ordered it months in advance. How disappointing I was when my BF and I watched it the day it arrived. We got through about 30 minutes before looking at each other and turned off the DVD. First, the actors have such heavy accents that even the English they are speaking is largely unintelligble. OK, fine, if that were the only flaw, I can live with that. After all, I own many foreign language films. Of course, they have subtitles. Second, the story line was disjunct and didn't even make sense. It jumped all around. Third, when the movie was over (yes, I eventually watched the whole thing, painful minute by painful minute), I didn't feel an ounce of connectivity to any character. The movie's tag line (You're Only Young Forever Once) makes no sense in the context of the story (a la lack thereof). Waste of money."
103553,1,Spare me,"Those of you who compare Brooks to Tolkien are totally wrong. There is no comparism between them. Tolkien is great, and Brook's books are have no real plot, no character development, and are downright boring. You're insulting Tolkien by comparing Brooks to this guy. If you want to read a book you can really call fantasy read Terry Goodkind, Robert Jordan, or David Eddings. Then come back and compare Brooks to Tolkien. People who do so have no reading experiance, and should not be writing reviews about it."
103554,1,Average Fantasy,"Being an avid reader of fantasy novels I was disappointed after reading The Sword of Shannara. I found the story to be yet another spin on the quest motif. While quest stories are an intrinsic part of fantasy literature, I feel that the author must create interesting and believable characters in order to compensate for a common storyline. Sadly I did not feel this book demonstrated such a quality. The characters all seemed to have very little personality (apart from them all being disconsolate, a word Mr. Brooks must be overly fond of). Having read other novels by this author I must say I feel this was an exception rather than the rule. I've enjoyed many stories Mr. Brooks has written. I do not think I'll continue reading this series, however."
103639,1,Audio is too fast!,"I had no trouble following the first three lessons, but after that point, I found the audio to go much too fast to follow. One, the speakers talk too fast. Two, in some exercises, the pause between the prompt and the correct response is too short to let the learner formulate the appropriate response and say it.The content of this course seems pretty good, I just wish it were read more slowly."
103716,1,Look elsewhere for good info.,This book provided very little quality information. In several cases the information was either missing or incorrect.
103733,1,wrong picture/description,"Title and description was for Ellie shoes, drop down menu gave choice of sizes, received some kind of car part."
103792,1,Terrible. Simply terrible.,"This book will get you nowhere. The English-written phonetic pronunciation is inaccurate and inconsistent. At best, this book will allow you to show it to your Chinese counterparts so that they can pronounce what you are trying to say.As an avid language learner, I do not find it hard to accustom myself to new languages and environments. But this book has only set me back in my travels in China.Do NOT buy this book. It fails to address the most important part of the language, which is the discrepancy of tonality that the spoken language has. Basically, you will find yourself not being understood and having to point in the book to what you want to say so that the locals can say it for you, thus defeating the point of a phrase book."
103851,1,Returned up after 5 days,This was my second Triax watch and my second bad experience. I had the watch for about 5 days and it locked up. None of the buttons would work. I replaced the battery and it still wouldn't work so I returned it.
103854,1,Horrible and NO Customer service!,"I purchased this item at a R us store today. We got it home and there was no T strap included. When I called the customer service line after being disconnected twice, I voiced my complaint. I asked how I would be able to obtain the strap and they said I had to purchase it if I want one. I told them it was a missing part, the seat has the holes to accomodate the strap, the strap was missing from the box. The rep then told me if my daughter couldn't sit in the chair with out falling out then maybe I shouldn't have her in a chair! The box advertises the chair is good for 18 mos plus. My daughter is almost 2 and I do not trust her sitting in a chair unstrapped. I don't think I am in a minority of people in this catergory. I then told the rep that any persom with an 18 month old wouldn't put their child in this seat and she then said so be it and hung up. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this chair to ANYONE."
103860,1,"The most insipid and uninspiring Allen movie, maybe ever.","I've always been a huge Allen fan, but the last few years have been brutal, and maybe the old pro better hang it up. Characters that are as stiff as wood with dialogue that has no flow or insight. As in VCB, Allen presumes that a change of country for location (finally out of Manhattan) justifies the exposition of a pale, prosaic movie. The two brothers exist on the stereotypical thrills of poker and ""business ventures"", how novel? Allen, never one for character development, unfortunately has no story either. Once again, he continues his hot streak of flops outside the comedy genre. Worst of all, Allen has no clue how to add any tension/thriller elements to his movie. Again, he's totally out of his league. Not to mention an ending that's a total ripoff of Polanski's extraordinary Knife in the Water. The only bright spot was Tom Wilkinson's magnificiently conniving performance."
103900,1,Wow. This is terrible.,"I didn't know whether to laugh or cry when our ""hero,"" the man who is supposed to train the heroine and help her defend herself against her abusive husband, exhibited all the signs of an abusive man.Note to author: It isn't sexy or romantic or exciting when a man constantly and aggressively presses himself against a woman. It isn't believable that a woman who had suffered constant and horrifying abuse at the hands of her husband would return a forced kiss. The way the initial scenes between these two characters were written was positively vomit-inducing. Lazy writing, straight from the handbook of the bodice-rippers, but with an extra dose of violence.Rape culture, in a nutshell. What a piece of crap."
103941,1,Don't be deceived,"If you want to know what's going on with this planet - read the Bible. The Urantia Papers and the Holy Scriptures are NOT complementary nor compatible. If you want to read about a divine revelation regarding this planet and the human race get ""A Divine Revelation of Hell"" and ""A Divine Revelation of Heaven"" by Mary K. Baxter. Time will certainly tell who's papers are true or not, although God's redeemed are already in the know."
103952,1,Predictable,"Being a 20 plus year fan of Bruce Springsteen and The E-Street Band I could almost predict the next note that was to be played on each song. Bruce's words were rehashed from previous songs. The only one that was worth the cost of the CD was ""Counting on a Miracle"" because he allowed Little Steven sing harmony and you could almost hear him if you listened close enough. The remainder of the songs did nothing for me. I was greatly disappointed. Next time I'll just get out one of my old albums and pretend they are still that good."
103958,1,"Short, outdated, and dry, but get past it and it's okay.","As I stepped into the worlds of well-to-do leather jacket wearing Marie, and the abusive home of ""whitetrash"" Lena, I realized that this book wasn't exactly ""up to par"" by the standards of young reader books today.In order to relate to the reader, the author must know the world of teenagers, not just guess as it is evident Woodson did. The leather boots and jackets, the cupcakes in class are all outdated, and ruined a perfectly good book.It seemed Woodson tried to condense the book into a shorter version than it originally had been planned. Overall, the book was not as insightful or intersting as I had expected, just basically the life of two confused pubescents, which, to the supposed reader, is nothing new"
104052,1,Dark-X reveiws (J-Kwon - Tipsy),"Hey its Dark-X and I am warning you not to buy this. Vulgar and foul lyrics do not offend me, but this is just going overboard. Atleast 30 bad words or phrases in the song is just annoying. Albums like this only contain one good song and 2 songs that are semi-good. Those are not worth a purchase of a full album. Buy the single or download the song by paying 99 cents. Hood Hop, Tipsy, and They Ask Me are the good songs. Why pay $15 bucks on them when you can spend less on an Ipod download or the single. I am not one of those people who are unfair to rap music. I gave this a fair rating. I am a rap fan and I like good rap. Did you know J-Kwon got kicked out of his house at age 12. He probably kept rapping sucky rhymes until his mother got deaf.- Dark-X"
104070,1,Over produced,"This cd has a over produced sound , wasnt really happy with it. Too bad, such a wasted talent, he should stick to Hootie and the blowfish material . he seems to sound so much better with them, Hootie fans will be- Disappointed in this one. But for R & B that sounds like every other R &B cd, this is the one for you. Very disappointing ."
104137,1,Why did I try Proctor-Silex again??,"After me first coffeemaker began leaking- and it was a realtively new proctor-silex 12 cup maker- I decided to try one of these ""cute"" single serve ones. Why, oh why did I purchase this brand?? First, it does take around 3-4 minutes to brew a single cup of coffee or tea. This seems like a longer time than most. And now, after 2 or 3 frustrating weeks, it's leaking just like the old one did. Not user error, as the water comes from underneath the coffeemaker. Also, the coffee is not coming out as hot either, which causes me to wonder if it's the heating element... Even though this one can use loose grounds or pods, it is not worth the frustration! Try a different brand. My sister-in-law has really enjoyed her Sensao!"
104165,1,Great story but hideously annoying style!,"I've never read a book that made me more conscious of the author. The plot was creative and intricate, the setting was fascinating and well described, and the characters were well developed, but oh, the prose! The style felt needlessly pretentious and overwrought, and I found myself becoming so annoyed with the author's intrusion into the story that I could only read it in small doses. I found myself mentally begging the author to get out of the way. I debated whether to read the rest of the series, because I found this book to be quite fascinating, but I decided it wasn't worth the annoyance."
104260,1,My heretical view,"This has to be one of the worst pieces of ""literature"" I have ever read. I have read many of the classics and should-be classics from ancient to modern times and this tops my list as the worst. I even approached it with an open mind (unlike Moby Dick--which I went into intending to hate, yet ended up loving). It is also one of only 4 or 5 books that I never finished--I got 3/4ths through it and just couldn't go on any more. I think it was Truman Capote who said this book was typing, not writing. I know this is supposed to be the seminal beat generation book, and I have nothing against the beats--I highly recommend Ginsberg--but this book is nothing more than narcissistic logorrhea. Don't waste your time. If you want stream of consciousness, read James Joyce. If you want beat, read Allen Ginsberg. If you want a road journey, read In Search of Melancholy Baby by Vassily Aksyonov. Don't bother with this."
104265,1,Boring!!,"Um... I bought this book because it is supposed to be a classic. I forced myself through the first half thinking it would get interesting, but it never did! I started skipping chapters thinking something interesting would happen, but alas, just a bunch of boring events jumbled together. I couldn't even keep track of the characters because they are so forgettable. I don't understand why this book is a ""classic"" I am surprised that anyone likes the thing at all, this is probably the hardest book I have ever tried to get through."
104361,1,Shallow Blue Sea,"Scientists looking for a cure for Alzheimer's disease experiment with nature's most dangerous predator, the shark, making them smarter. Unfortunately, they're now only as smart as the scientists themselves, who seem to be suffering from the disease they're trying to prevent."
104555,1,Plot spoiler (kind of),"I was so upset by this book, which starts out with quite a nice, easy story. Not particularly challenging, no new questions asked, but still well written. I even liked the post apocalyptic bit.It's just that I can't believe that a great author like this could seriously use the ""it was only a dream"" story line. Even before coming 'round from unconsciousness, the final message to never stop screaming meaningless pointless questions at people is a ridiculously oversimplified solution.I really liked the start, I think that's why I feel a bit bitter about it. He made me care about the characters, only to do stupid things with them.Two stars is for making me care, otherwise it would have been less."
104556,1,UP is LOUSY!,"Having been a fan of Peter's previous works, I was so excited for his new long long long awaited new cd and after listening....not one track is decent. His vocals sound weak, on DARKNESS he sounds like he is rapping....the cd is a trainwreck of every style possible. I am so dissapointed in waiting so long and having him come back a) with a cd of lousy material and b) only 10 tracks on it!Better luck next time...AVOID THIS CD!"
104628,1,Cheap and Nasty,I just received these and am appalled! The metal is very thin and the edges are unfinished and so sharp I almost cut my finger while trying to wash them. I cannot believe a respected brand like Matfer would sell such a low quality product. The price is exorbitant for what you get. I live in Hong Kong and the return postage would be prohibitive or else I would return them straight away. Do NOT buy any Matfer baking molds as they all appear to be very badly made.
104640,1,well-produced sci-fi for Christian-right movie goers,"This is a well-produced, well-acted sci-fi movie with a strong anti-abortion scenes in it. Personally, i think they should keep religion out of sci-fi movies, but the director certainly has his agenda in the film. To a degree the movie is inspired by the far-superior (and non-religious) sci-fi film Gattaca. I will give The Island credit for one thing though, it has an absolutely great chase scene in the movie (the one with the flying motorcycles)."
104773,1,"Liked EC 1, this one . . . oh my","OK, I'll start off saying that Steve Walsh is not near the top of my favorite singers list. I like some Kansas, but it's usually despite Walsh's atics.But despite repeated listenings trying to get it to grow on me (like a fungus?), I can't find anything to recommend this album. I liked much of Age of Impact, but this is nowhere near that one. And Bozzio, Myung and Robertson are always high on my list of artists, but they can't redeem this one.One of the things I dislike most about Gardner's style is heavy repetition of lyric phrases, and ""now, now, now"" stuff. Much more prevalent on this album than AoI, and it grates (as it does on most Magellan albums).As a serious prog-head, I can't recommend this one at all."
104860,1,Nice pictures.. battery life is short among other things,"I wanted to upgrade to a newer camera, but can't afford to pay [$] or more for a better camera. So, I figure I'd try Argus' DC3500... It takes nice pictures even in low light. That is about the only thing I liked on it.Batteries lasted only a couple of days. They give you 4 AAA Kodak batteries. You'd probably have better luck with rechargeables.When you want to download the pictures to your computer, you have to plug it in with the USB and go into a temporary folder, that pops up, to get them. Then you have to save them to another folder on your computer or in MGI PhotoSuite to be able to do anything with them. REASON: when you disconnect the camera, the folder disappears. (They tell you this in the manual)Overall, I liked my Kodak DC3200 1.2 MP digital camera better. It didn't have good resolution, but was more user friendly."
104861,1,Dumped it 1/4 of the way through,"I am sorry to those who love this book, but I would have to agree with the last review written. I got to page 110 and couldn't go any further. I know, I know that it gets better further on but it was so damn boring & it was such a tedious job getting to where I already was that I couldn't keep it up.Why? I really don't know. Pearson's dialogue between characters is really not that good at all & maybe his plots are better, but the story wasn't really going anywhere and it didn't get my attention right from the beginning, therefore it was doomed!The last reviewer said that after 200 pages the story gets better but nothing that hasn't been done before so I though, why bother? esp when I have a stack of Michael Connelly and Dennis Lehane to keep me going for the next few weeks.Maybe I should have stuck with the rest of the book, but the writing and character development is terrible. Crime fiction lovers, do yourself a major favour and read Michael Connolley instead."
104883,1,This is not very funny,I purchased this book after watching the episodes on You Tube. The series is called the Unwritten Rules and it is hilarious however this book was not very funny and the author even went as far to say that her college English teacher told her that she did not have a talent for writing; she should have listened.But I do encourage you to check out and SUPPORT the You Tube project. It is a very positive and well produced show and I give much credit to Kim Williams for its success. >OoO<
104924,1,Not the same Marcia Griffiths I used to know,"Beware . . . listen carefully to the sample tracks.If you're looking for the 1960's reggae-rocksteady Jamacian royality that I was looking for . . . go look somewhere else. This has a modern beat, not the classic melodic Studio One sound of yesteryear. Not my cup of tea, maybe yours."
104982,1,Badly written romantic comedy,"Really, the only thing going for this movie are all the nice quotes interspersed throughout the movie.In any romantic comedy, the maxim is that the romantic leads must have appeal in some way to the viewer. Ione Sky's character does not. While she's supposed to be a literate, depressive, yet idealistic romantic, she comes off simply as a self-absorbed, self-centered drama queen. Moreover, the backstory involving the reason for her isnomnia is completely unconvincing as none of it is reflected in her character.I simply found the romance ludicrious and rather disturbing in its conclusion. You do not want to see these two get together. The other characters are rote Gen-X cliches and the use of black and white in the beginning of the movie unfortunatedly highlights the all-around weak acting."
105030,1,get a 10 gallon aquarium instead!!,"I inherited this ""habitat"" when I got my current teaching job. I too feel it is way too flimsy and that the tadpoles don't have enough room (they kept swimming onto the banks and had to be rescued) AND it gets dirty way too quickly. It was set up in January and as of Memorial Day, the tadpoles were tiny and had no signs of getting legs. Plus it was hard for my preschoolers to actually see them. After bringing them home for the summer, I put them into a 10 gallon aquarium. They have grown quite a bit in the last couple weeks and both of them finally have legs. Plus they are a whole lot easier to watch. For $10 more, you can get the entire 10 gallon starter kit complete with a filter, plants etc."
105080,1,IT SUCKS,"I got this,and boy does it SUCK!I mean, when I open the box, and take her out, her arms fall off,so we went out to the toy store and got a refund.This one lasted longer, but still broke, and I only kept her in a glass case, and when I moved her, there her arms go!I can't play with it cause mum says that her arms will fall off again, and she dose not want to glue them back on.Well,mum knows best..."
105144,1,Terrible Book,"Someone told me this was similar to Black Lace books. Nope. It's not. I couldn't get into the story, and I don't remember much of it. I just remember being disappointed because it wasn't a good read, black lace or otherwise."
105177,1,Paper format wrong choice,"I heartily agree with all those who were taken aback by all the posh hotels included while cultural and recreational events and sites were not included.Gotta say, though, that it's the paperback format that really detracts from this book. It's too darn heavy to be so small! By page 35, my wrists were exhausted! And, what was the publisher thinking by using such small margins. It was so tightly bound that I frequently had to ""split"" it open - and the margin around the edges where the user holds the book - well - I spent more time shifting my fingers so they wouldn't cover the text than I did reading.Finally, there should be a all inclusive checklist that the reader can mark those places he/she has visited.Would not purchase this unless you've got REALLY strong arms."
105223,1,Rinse Don't work!!,"I just bought this for 5 days, and thought of using it today. The autorinse/wash works but if you want to just rinse the carpet you just washed, it did not even work at all. What a piece of crap!!! They should have checked it before they sell it to the public!! Now my carpet is slightly wet, and I have to use hair dryer to dry my carpet.My husband just called the customer service, and the customer service was not even helpful instead he told my husband to return it to the store. The customer service man don't even explain to us what's wrong with it.Hoover used to be a good company with good quality vacuum cleaner /steamer. Now it's customer service sucks as well as the quality of the cleaners.!!So for those who thought of buying this steam vac. DON'T!!"
105297,1,As much plot as the Yellow Pages,"As expected, the writing was brilliant, and two stars for that alone. The dialogue was perfection. Ms. Tartt set the scene with exquisite insight and precision.Like young girls in a clothing store, the characters tried on one plot after another, ultimately rejecting all of them. The ending, when it came, was entirely unexpected. I was as if the publisher said, ""right, just give me what you have."" I was shocked to turn the page and find that there was no more. The book was a long, often beautiful, ride to nowhere.Ms. Tartt owes me an ending. I hope she will post one online, because this was a long book and I deserve to be treated better."
105321,1,ok,I was looking for a kids book that explains the Christmas story. It does but I think the word choice is too complex and too old world for my 4 year old. I end up changing some of the sentences as I read so that he understands.
105327,1,Arnie is Slipping,The action was OK and the story was weak and a bit predictable. The ending was just plain ridiculous...The villians BOTH survived through that fire! Come on now! They both would of died. Disapointing!
105352,1,Not the REAL Andromeda Strain,One star is a generous rating.I bought this DVD thinking it was the Andromeda Strain movie. I was extremely disappointed discover that it is a politically slanted miniseries that is very loosely connected to the original book and movie.
105547,1,Not-so-hot book written by a cold-reader.,"The quality and accuracy of the inforamtion Mr. Edward claims to glean during the sample ""readings"" given in this book are unbelieveable...very unbelievable.The readings Mr. Edward describes in this book might be a little more credible if the readings he gives in his live appearences resembled them in any way. Alas, it's much harder to hide the inaccuracy of his ""cold-reading"" act on camera than it is on paper."
105552,1,i got sucked in !!!!!!!!!,"i am so disappointed in myself, i got sucked in by all the good reviews. could not imagine that there was so many gullible people. its sad, really, that humans will believe anything to relieve themselves of pain..."
105625,1,Fun but Defective,"the Xbox 360 is a very good gaming system, but however. An update was released in Spring and this caused Live to fail for me. After this I put an original Xbox game in it and then the Three Lights of Death came. These lights indicate a hardware failure and this has been reported numerous times. On a survey, 60 percent of people had one that broke.If you can take aside all of the freezing and glitches and crashing associated with the 360, then the system would be 100 percent, perfect. Which it isn't. The system has great games like Oblivion, upcoming Halo, and others though......... :'("
105696,1,This vanity is Junk!!!,"I bought this for my daughter. i was shocked to find each and every piece were warped. We put it together the best we could. On Christmas morning, the Cinderella's voice worked one time, and her face only appeared twice!! The next day I returned it and bought a sturdy, stable, adoreable vanity from Step2. This cinderella vanity, although cute to look at was dangerous. It was so flimsy that it kept falling over and had to be propped up. My advise is to NOT waste your money on this inferior product!!"
105703,1,Yea,"All I have to say is, SERIOUSLY?? Who are the idiots releasing these, my feelings are shared with the other reviewers."
105719,1,Uncomfortable and unfunny,"I am still amazed that this movie was such a big hit - it is one of the worst ""comedies"" I have ever tried to sit through. Unless you enjoy seeing someone ridiculed and treated rudely throughout the entire film, I don't recommend it. The whole movie feels uncomfortable and that feeling never leaves you. It's simply awful and should be an embarrassment for De Niro."
105738,1,disappointed,"This memory card would not work. Contacted the seller with this issue but got no help. Not even an apology for defective card, Just some type of excuse for what may have occurred. We do A LOT of shopping on Amazon.com and this is the first me I have EVER had a company not take responsibility for a mistake."

105766,1,more like goo!,i bought this product as sort of a stress reliever something i could mold and shape this is more like a clearish goo and does not turn colors at all do not buy unless u are looking for sum slime
105867,1,Tell it to the marines.,"Dower must have gone to some other country. I served in Japan, did close -order drill on the Emperor's front lawn, learned a bit of the language, studied under the leading expert on Japanese history, spent a sabattical year in Japan - and more - and I think Dower's picture is absurd and harmful. I'm not alone; all the GI's I knew felt very much at home in Japan. It's a great country - every outfit has its scoundrels. Japan is the world's leading creditor; we are the greatest debtor. Japan's pre-war economic aims have been achieved and surpassed. It's hard to say what our aims were, and the Occupation's floundering provides no clues. Dower's ethnocentrism is embarrassing."
105881,1,Works but useless in the car,"Ok, so the bluetooth headset works and is relatively comfortable, easy to use, very good battery life (for occasional car use).Cons: The listeners can't hear me when I am in the car, and the same on my end as well. No or Too much noise cancellation :) that the other person can barely hear me. Going 60-70mph you barely hear the other end w/ the full volume. Conference calling feature is funky, you have to conference through the headset and if you do it via the phone the conferenced folks can't hear you. I can also vouch for outside bluetooth range, it literally has to be less than 4 feet away.I've had a Jabra for a while and LOVED it. It stopped working after 3 years and I needed to upgrade (especially the battery life). Bottom-line, cheap headset, if you don't drive around w/ the bluetooth and sit in a very silent place GO for it! But my recommendation would be don't buy this product."
105890,1,No 32s/Eats Batteries,"I had a 32s for many years. When it finally died, I got this one. The calculator just feels cheap. It also goes through 2 cr2032 batteries every other month whether I use it or not. (My 32s lasted 2-3 years on a set of batteries)."
105949,1,Interminable,"Oi. I don't know if it's because I'm getting bored with this series or if it's this book in particular, but it took me months to get through this book. I couldn't stand to read it. Endless descriptives that would slow the pace, that I'd end up just flipping through, and the story just seemed to inch forward that I had to put the book away for days/weeks at a time. Really? Does this have to be 12+ books long??? It did get better toward the last 1/8th section of the book with the pace picking up and more interesting, significant events starting to happen. Maybe someone can come up with a Cliff's Notes version of the whole series that will cut out a lot of the fat. The first 4 books flew by quickly and I'm disheartened that things are starting to grind down. Is book 9 going to be better? Hope so. I'm committed now."
105981,1,"Stay away...far, far away!!!","I don't like to beat a dead horse here, but I believe Mr. Jordan has beaten me to the punch! He lost me completely in book one of the series (Eye of the World). On the suggestion of a friend, I gave the book a sincere try. But after 400 pages of sheer torture, I just had to put it down. Am I ever glad I did! Not only is his concept trite, Mr. Jordan simply has little talent for writing or arousing the interest of earnest Fantasy readers...unless cheap comic books are your thing.I come from the world of J.R.R. Tolkien, Stephen R. Donaldson, Frank Herbert...to name a few. These are authors who created actual worlds in which you could live and breathe, and who wove a rich tapestry of believable characters and events. Mr. Jordan's work can't hold a candle to these masterpieces. This is bubble-gum kiddie-kitsch at its best. Save your hard-earned money and valuable time, folks and...STAY AWAY!!"
106007,1,Didn't like it / couldn't even finish it,I watched more than 1/2 this movie but I could never get into it at all - I am surprised it got good reviews on Amazon. Try 'Perfect Christmas' instead.
106051,1,Junk. Broke in the first week.,"The poor quality die-cast metal collar for adjusting the height of the top pole broke where the cheap, plastic tightening knob is. This is a huge piece of [...] and I would not recommend it. I am sending it back."
106133,1,Stupid stupid stupid...,"I don't really know how to put my hatred of this movie into words. It was THE worst movie I have ever seen in my life. I have seen a lot of bad movies in my time, but this really takes the cake. I don't think I would even wish this movie upon my worst enimy, that would be too cruel. I didn't laugh once watching this movie, it just left me shaking my head in awe of how really horible it was. Please save yourself from torture, and skip watching this excuse for a movie."
106219,1,MOVIE ...,"This movie has to be the worst movie I have ever seen. Tom Green is usually funny, but this movie isn't even remotely funny. Save your time and money."
106321,1,Not worth your money.,"I bought this DVD because I thought that MTV could put together a fun and exilarating workout video. But the moves are complicated/awkward and they are hard to follow. They don't give you much time to figure them out. And, you are always doing the reverse of everyone. One thing that was aggrevating was when they change a scene, you are expected to keep moving, but the music changes or dissapears for a few seconds. And sometimes, people in the video move offbeat. The editing is horrible. The camera doesn't stay focused on one ""good"" person. The guest is flimsy and can't do the moves accurately. She doesn't even look like she's trying. Overall it's a horrible DVD. Don't waste your money."
106327,1,Read Prestowitz'z Book Instead,"Instead of reading Friedman's book, read Clyde Prestowitz's book, _Rogue Nation: American Unilateralism and the Failure of Good Intentions_. Friedman is an unrepented supporter of the preventive war on Iraq. For a review of Prestowitz's book, go to the web site of the New York Review of Books, page http://www.nybooks.com/articles/16591 ."
106370,1,A Major Disappointment,"Cooking is an avocation for me and I looked forward to the new Joy of Cooking, especially since it was accompanied by the CD. After looking carefully through both the book and trying the CD, I wound up giving it to the local library book store. Joy has gone from being a leader to being strictly second rate. For a general purpose cookbook, try Bittman, The Cook's Bible or the NY Times Cookbook. The lack of either good basics or any creativity makes this less than worth the money. The CD is simply the worst I have seen. Williams Sonoma is much better. Pass on this one."
106397,1,Hard disk failed again,"When I first got it, I thought it was great. Easy to use, adequate sound quality (not great). Then, as other people have said, the hard disk started grinding, and I lost all my songs. I sent it back to Tascam with a note for them to send me recovered songs if they could, and they did not. I got a new one which worked fine. Then yesterday, the hard disk locked and I lost the song I was working on. This time I could retrieve my other songs, so I mastered them, but the hard disk still grinds and I'm going to have to send it back again. Obviously a design flaw, and not the only one (why doesn't it have a back lit LCD? Why no digital inputs?). Don't buy this unless you want to lose all your songs."
106426,1,On the Outside Looking In.,"Although Markoff is an exceptional writer and the book is both easy to read and entertaining, the content is presented as factual when the truth is that these guys definitely wrote the book with only part of the whole story at their disposal. One of the main ""cyberpunks"" depicted in the book is Kevin Mitnick, who claims that he has never even met John Markoff. How can the book fairly and accurately speak to the topic of hacking during the early days of the Internet revolution when they never did any investigations with real ""hackers""? The story is told only from a law enforcement point-of-view. I am sure that the Rodney King story is told differently by King than the LAPD. Same goes for this case.Like many works today that seem to be written for financial reasons, it seems very one-sided and sensational."
106453,1,Not Recommended.,"I've had this printer for 5 months. It worked fine for 3 months. Now, all it will do is tell me the Canon black cartridge cannot be recognized, even though it is almost full of ink. Canon does not even list this model on it's tech support website, and troubleshooting gives no helpful information.I have removed and re-installed the cartridge a dozen times....the light comes on momentarily, but when I try to print, scan, or copy, it goes out and again I get the ""can't recognize the cartridge"" notice. Canon charges ten bucks for support. Bad deal."
106471,1,Fourth and Declining,The latest Enigma album is perhaps the largest dissapointment. Cretu's talents seemed to have been somewhat strained with this album. As always he add's his voals to some tracks. His voice while okay on the first album has gotten steaily worse. Becoming both grating and often incomprehensible. The lyrics have become almost mundane in there effort to be amibigious. It is still listenable but I do not suggest playing it along side the previous albums
106476,1,STAY AWAY!,"Mind numbing laundry lists of dates and squadron losses presented in narrative format, making it incredibly boring to read and impossible to use as a reference. No maps or tables, and a lot of information is repeated through the book as though it hadn't been edited. STAY AWAY."
106492,1,Strangely Disappointed,"I have listened to the CD over and over - it is missing something. I like Devil's Pie, Untitled and Africa cuts, but the rest of the CD loses me. I was prepared to love this CD - Brown Sugar and his live import are wonderful - but I'm afraid I can't."
106582,1,"Disappointing cake -ring, not for perfectionists!","I am professional chef of French Pastries and I am disappointed with this ring. I used this ring to produce an extremely delicate cake called 'Mousse of Chocolate', so on the tender surface my cake's sides there were rough traces of clips, that are regulating the diameter of the ring. Professional cake-ring has to have a totally sleek shape without any clips on the interior surface..."
106603,1,Save the last dance,The DVD would not play on 3 different DVD players. I was not happy at all! I really don't think I would trust using this site again.
106669,1,Horrible.,"I recently saw The Bourne Identity in theatres and figured i'd read the book. The library didn't have it so I got this one instead. While I read the whole thing I'd say I enjoyed about every other line except the ending which doesn't make any sense and is really just a cop out.The first thing that annoyed me was that everyone he talks to gets killed just before they are about to provide some information which might move the story along. I don't mind if some of them get killed, but all of them?? That's just silly.The second thing that annoyed me was that at one point Bryson is able to determine in a glance -- in the moonlight -- that a CIA badge is legit, but later on he can't decide if several british policeman are legit or not even though he examines their clothes, their guns, and their badges. Which is it?"
106675,1,Another rewrite of history,Mr. Buchanan has once again proven that he does not know what he's talking or writing about...but at least he's finally showing his true colors. It's nice to know that old Pat is a Nazi sympathizer because that explains everything about this man. Only in Free Speech America could someone get away with this garbage. And this guy's running for President? Heaven help us all!
106689,1,This cable is horrible,I bought this cable from circuit city cause I was in desperate need for an svideo cable to use on my kv-27fv310 sony wega tv. It looked horrible... When you play Metroid Prime you can easily see dots crawling on the red nintendo logo at the start of the game similar to the ones you see when you use the standard av cables the Gamecube comes with. Throughout the whole game there's crawling dots (especially on alot of blue colored objects like ice) which made me very dissapointed... Later on I bought the component video cable from nintendo's online store for about 35 bucks with shipping and that cable delivers amazing quality. I highly recommend the component cable from nintendo. The Intec S-Video cable is still better than the standard av cables though but as far as s-video goes this cable is horrible (had the same experience with an interact s-video cable for playstation until I bought the official sony one which was way better). Not recommended.
106788,1,Don't take her out of the package!!!!!!,"The paint application is the worst I have ever seen on a ""Marvel Legends""!!!!!! I'm probably going to have my fiance re do the paint.One of my favorite things about the ""Marvel Legends"" line of action figures is the articulation. But, for the first time the articulation ruins the figure. I had a really hard time getting her to look good standing up.My recommendation...is to get the M.O.D.O.K. build a figure another way. If you want a Jessica Drew Spider-Woman, try the ""Marvel Select""."
106808,1,EVEN 1 STAR IS TOO MUCH!,"How unfortunate it is that this woman has chose the ill fate of some to boost her books sales. If I were as evil as she, I would wish Gluten Intolerance on her, or one of the many additional maladys that can occur to those who suffer from this disability. Or worse yet that she have a child or grandchild who doesn't understand why they can't eat the same birthday cake at their friends birthday parties. But why would I stoop so low as she? Perhaps her gluten-phobia will in fact do her in by the flood gates being opened by those she has offended and public awareness of this DISEASE will be far reaching. Thank you in advance Ms. Truss if more people are made aware of this ""gluten crap"" since your book was published...it could in fact save someone's life."
106923,1,"A female ""Fugitive"" and that's not a good thing","This movie made a lot of money. Why? Because people enjoy seeing movies they've already seen, but just changed a little bit. Although everyone seems to hate ""EYES WIDE SHUT"", which is unlike any other movie, they still preferred this garbage over it. The plot is lifted directly from ""The Fugitive"" as is Tommy Lee Jones. The scene where she is locked in the coffin is purely done so people can go ""Oh no!"", but it is done with such implausibility that it doesn't make any sense. If the premise of this movie sounds intriguing to you, just watch ""The Fugitive"". Just stop having movies like this make money because then they will make more. Try anything else but this rubbish PLEASE."
107061,1,Same as the other 1 star reviews...,"I bought one of these for each of my four controllers. They held a charge for a few weeks, not for nearly as long as previous packs I've had which have lasted years. Now they won't even hold a charge for a second. If I unplug the controller it dies instantly.Ridiculous waste of money."
107093,1,"Please pass, trust me.","Good intention, but script was weak, and actors were not exactly compatible with each other, as well as with the characters they were assigned. Life is too short not to pass. Many dialogues were like cliche, not to mention that there are quite a few good movies on bad cops already in the market."
107151,1,Poor,"I had the misfortune of watching about half of this movie over Christmas. While I love animated films, (I own all the Pixar films) and usually like animated kids movies, I did not enjoy this one. The storyline was alright, but the animated characters just didn't have the right 'feel' to them. The main character, HAM-III, was too cocky and sure of himself to be likable. The voice acting is also a downgrade from the other animated films released in 2008. The movie just felt sub-par when compared to other kids flicks I've seen that last few years. Also, the animation itself is of a lesser quality; it just doesn't look polished.If you're looking for a good animated film for your kids, check out WALL-E (or anything Pixar) or KUNG FU PANDA. They are much better films and more watchable for an adult audience. (KUNG FU PANDA made me laugh my pants off; Jack Black's voice acting is hysterical)."
107177,1,Disappointing,"I was rather excited about reading this book as a simple, easy way to learn more about one of history's most intriguing figures. In the end, I was rather disappointed. The book was not particularly well-written and did not flow well. Worse yet, the author failed to portray Elizabeth as a strong leader and more like a weak, frail queen subject to her lusts and relying almost entirely on her advisors for ruling. The plot did not really explain while Elizabeth never married, despite several love affairs and extreme pressure to do so to protect the throne."
107259,1,"buy ""On This Date"" instead","Kremer's ""Celebrate Today"" is an amateurish mess.Crummy clip art that's obviously several decades old...dumb made-up holidays, many of them redundant orself-promoting (to sell Kremer's other books)...and a '60s liberal slant in the selection of featured eventscombine to make this a frustrating and nearly unusable volume.Do yourself a favor and buy ""On This Date"" by Sandy Whiteleyinstead. It's a classy book that treats readers with respect.There's more usable material in one chapter of ""On This Date""than in Kremer's entire book."
107284,1,Difficult to follow,"As a early-intermediate tapper, I was disappointed by this video. While it was very cool to see Leonard Reed himself speak in the intro, the actually teaching of the dance leaves a lot to be desired.First, the instructor talks you through the steps while facing you, so you have to try to reverse everything on your own, which is extremely difficult. Then, when she finally does turn around to demonstrate, she doesn't talk through the steps anymore, so you constantly have to rewind to learn the steps. To make matters MUCH worse, the beat is kept by a tapping in the background, which sounds almost exactly like the instructor's tap shoe, making it very difficult to figure out the steps by ear.I did make it through the tape, but it took a very long time. And this was just a refresher, because I learned the shim sham in a dance class a couple years ago."
107386,1,Dino's Swinging West,"Dean Martin lends his amiable, laid-back presence to a dreadful Western comedy. The sagebrush hijinks in ""Texas Across the River"" (1966) date badly - little helped by Joey Bishop's tired shtick as an Indian sidekick. Frank De Vol contributes a totally out-of-it Vegas lounge score that makes the film even more anachronistic. How Alain Delon got trapped in this turkey remains anyone's guess."
107439,1,0 STARS: Booooooooooring!!!,"I simply thought this ""Frankenstein"" movie was boring. Robert DeNiro is a great actor, but this movie failed to keep my interest. I would not recommend this flick to horror movie fans."
107456,1,Great looking but not extremely durable,"I enjoyed the styling of this belt while I owned it, but it's not nearly as durable as the typical belt design. If you plan to only wear it for certain occasions and not day to day, it should work for you."
107458,1,Horrible service!! dont buy!!,i never even rcieved my belt in the mail and when i complained to amazon i never got my refund. more than 30 dollars down the drain. amazon left a bad taste in my mouth because of this.
107473,1,Gave it a shot,"Wilton Dessert Decorator ProBought as a Christmas present and hoped that the problems with the thumb part was due to user(peoples) method of use. It was not! My wife is a professional baker and she loves using bags but I thought this might be easier. All I got was a piece of cheap equipment, I would not recommend this to anyone that plans on doing and serious baking."
107490,1,look's like VietCong handywork to me,"If you want to lose some fingers or other essential parts of your body ,I suggest to write Mr Ragnar Benson how this FEELS!!."
107507,1,Dont let the cover fool you!,"The cover of this game looks like the ones by take two interactive.Dont let that fool you. This game is nothing like the other ones. It is in a word, RIDICULOUS. I didn't know mario was a ranger! If you are 12 years old or younger you might like it. I didn't even get past the training mission, and I shut it off! Dont judge a book by it's cover!! BOOOOOO!!!!"
107582,1,One of the worst Blu Ray transfers extant!,"This is awful....grainy, full of artifacts. Absolutely no effort was put into this disaster.Minus 1 million stars! I think it is in many ways worse than the DVD.This is not worth considering on blu ray."
107586,1,Apollo 13,The DVD doesn't work. It's an HD DVD and we tried it on 3 DVD players in our house. I'm very disappointed that it is defective.
107604,1,Boo!,"This is a synopsis of the book, not the actual book. Buyer Beware! I wasted my money because I didn't read carefully, don't make the same mistake!"
107621,1,Avoid at any cost!,"What a bluffing! This is a completely disappointing album. Mrs. Salmaso is a limited Brazilian folk-singer with a small vocal range, no expressiveness, and backed by a very bad band. The arrangements are poor, nothing that could be compared to the work of great Brazilian arrangers like Gaya, Lyrio Panicalli, Leo Perachi or even Eumir Deodato. Brazilian music doesn't moves forward through Salmaso's hands (and terrible voice). It moves back! it's not a progression, it's really a retrogression.It's one of the worst albums released in the Nineties. Avoid at any cost!"
107652,1,I was expecting more,"I bought these when they were on clearance for around $30 and thought I was getting a great deal on expensive sheets. Unfortunately, they are probably only worth about $30. Even after washing they are still kind of scratchy and not particularly comfortable. I think they must be made from a low-quality cotton. They don't ruin my sleep or anything, but I guess you get what you pay for (...if you are paying the clearance price)."
107667,1,Mindless Action Flick,"The cast was way too good for the writing and editing in this movie. The plot was so thin, I can't believe that stars like DW, RR, VF, et al. would agree to be in this. Didn't they read the script beforehand? On the other hand, if you're a guy that enjoys a mindless, shoot 'em up, violent, car chase-filled action flick with very little plot, no character development and poor editing, then you'll enjoy this movie."
107686,1,Poorly made,The straps were extra long (could probably fit an obese person) and were made of styrofoam - they were NOT supportive or heavy duty at all - not to mention the velcro came off.Do not buy.
107768,1,oops,"I was really disapointed with this CD. I bought it because I really liked the first song and expected more songs to be like it, I was wrong."
107818,1,Seller not not up front with return policy at time of sale,"The seller did not disclose Region 2 as india/africa location for viewing. Seller did know the item was being shipped to California. In sales there is no reference to regions locations to view product purchased. Had I known that there were specific regions for videos or a graph showing the regions I may not have spent $30.00 plus dollars for a movie I can not view. When I asked to return product, I was notified that if it were returned unopened I could return it. How would I know that if on their return policy at the time of sale, they had not mentioned that. Also how would I know I could not view it if I had not opened it to find out?"
107822,1,Bump free????,"As a black man, I have been in search of a great shave since puberty. I am a big optimist....meaning, I havent given up on this shaver yet. However, I went from using a wahl T-Outliner to shave with(with no bumps) to this, hoping to get a close shave. I ""have"" bumps now and am not sure why. granted my skin is smooth....meaning no stubble, however I now have bumps....go figure. The manual that comes with the shaver states that you may have to give it time for your skin to get accustomed to it......so I'm gonna give it a week or 2 and see what happens. Glad i didnt throw away my old shaver yet. OHHHH, the trimer on the back IS the best thing about the shaver so far....gives sharp lines."
107874,1,A waste....,"This series began with alot of mystery and promise, but by book 5 it was evident that King had lost his way. I eagerly waited for this book - Song of Susannah was such a waste of time, but I waded through it anyway just so I could be ready for the final book.As I read through the book I began to have a feeling of trepidation. How many of you remember reading The Wolves of the Calla and realizing that, with only 20 or so pages left, the book was almost over and nothing had really been accomplished? Thats how I felt once Major Characters began dying in this book.And this book had a horrible finish.Do not read this book. Instead, write your own ending. How do you want Roland to come out of this adventure? The ending King gives is awful. How awful? It's like playing a video game and, when you beat it, a message comes up and says, ""Now try it again on a harder level.""Tripe. Hackneyed. Drivel. Pulp."
107969,1,Yuk,"These filters impart a foul chemical taste to the water and ice cubes for the first couple of weeks. I thought I got a bad batch, but I experienced the same thing the second time I ordered them. I intend to try another brand next time if I can find one.Yes, I did flush it first as instructed."
107987,1,awful,"Regarding the Exit Stage Left dvd in this package, be prepared to be disappointed.The audio mix is the worst I've ever heard, mostly due to the remixed drum sounds. Why would anyone in their right mind remix the drums on a classic recording like this? These guys are in the music business, and isn't the sound important to them? Are they deaf?The sound keeps going in and out of sync with the picture. Very distracting.If you don't mind some Japanese subtitles during the voice-overs between songs, your money is better spent on the Japanese version of ESL, at HMV Japan.Rush should be ashamed of themselves to have released this nonsense.Rated at ""1"" because 0 wasn't an option."
108015,1,"Some interesting comments, some nonsense...","When I picked up this book,I wanted a different viewpoint on this subject. Be aware, the book is biased against capital punishment. However, Dr. Lewis makes some interesting points about neurology and the committing of violent crimes that may need to be looked at further. Our current methods of treating criminals and crimes seems to exclude, as Lewis' book points out, recognition of true incapacitation. It also points out glaring gaps in the judicial system with regard to handling juvenile offenders. In this world of increasing numbers of violent children who commit violent crimes, we would do well to begin taking another look at how we handle such cases. Lewis' book is worth reading, if only for a different point of view."
108017,1,Boring/stupid,"What can I say about this game? Hmmm.......... Well, I can start out by saying that the graphics are simplistic, the soung is annoying, and the actual game, well, you are in a helicopter, which is impossible to steer and to do your missions, you pull people up and put out fires. Wow. Don't get this game; it's awful. Don't waste good money buying this garbage."
108063,1,outdated !!,"i felt ripped off when i came to the end of this very little book, which took about a half hour. the information is the most basic and not up to date at all. there is more up to date info on the internet and on blowgun forums, in fact...everything you might want to know. in the blowgun forums you can even ask the experts specific questions and count on friendly and correct responses. there is a whole world of competition matches going on that may have not existed when the book was written. PASS on this one unless it goes on sale for$2.99 with free shipping."
108144,1,Misleading online specifications,"The specifications on Amazon state: can be used for a preterm infant. Once I opened the package, I see it states clearly: for babies between 8 and 35 pounds. And further inside"" Never use for a preterm infant without seeking the advice of a healthcare professional."" Obviously misleading. Our baby is not preterm, but on the small side at 5 lb. Why does the manufacturer exagerate the possible use of the product?"
108161,1,thin coffee,"This book is better than nothing but has no real depth. It lacks any real financal information or planning guidelines. In the era of the web there are almost no sites or addresses listed.This is just a walk in the park where it must have been written. If you are serious, look elsewhere."
108222,1,"SOME GOOD, SOME BAD","This cd shows, in my opinion, the reason Sammy Hagar was kicked out of the band. His vocals are scratchy and off-key. That aside, there are some good songs. ""Feelin"" & ""The Seventh Seal"" are both top-notch. However, this cd contains ""Big Fat Money,"" which is the worst song VH has ever done. I recommend this cd for diehards only."
108271,1,Disappointed with naming mistake by Amazon,"At the time of purchase, which I have to admit was for a great price, I was informed by Amazon's website that I was buying ""The Chosen Collection"" as per my order details page. Today I received the shipment, which is suppose to be a Christmas gift for my girlfriend who is a huge Buffy fan, and I unpack ""The Complete Series""I see a number of other people are in the same situation I am in now. I cannot complain about the price, but I ordered this under the false assumption it was the product advertised and now I don't think I'll be able to return it per their rules, as this is not what I ordered. That, I can justifiably complain about.Not sure what I am going to do, have yet to contact Amazon about it."
108292,1,disappointed,"I was disappointed with all the stories in this book, they were not up to what made me fans of these authors."
108328,1,review for black version of case,"A receptacle slash magnet for all kinds of dust, hair and debris. You will be shocked at the collection of dust particles on the inside of this case. I have no idea why it attracts so much dust. This problem could possibly be exclusive to the BLACK version of the case."
108378,1,"Buyer, beware!","This is not the original 6-hour (minus commercials) mini-series that originally ran. This is a much-edited version, cut down to only about 2 hours. Still a half-way decent movie, but a lot of things won't make sense. And some story lines are not properly wrapped up. Example: the relationship between Silva and his captive mistress. Very disappointing, as I still remember certain scenes which are not included. Also, I've learned since 1981 that this is not an accurate portrayal of Silva, the Roman commander. Not noble, as portrayed by Peter O'Toole, just a typical bloodthirsty Roman officer.I recommend reading the recent best-selling book, ""The Dovekeepers"". More believable about the true nature of the major characters. Even the novel this movie is based on, ""The Antagonists"", by Ernest Gann, would be better. Even tho Gann is the one who originally painted the false picture of Silva."
108385,1,Sadder than the British Doo Wop Reunion on PBS...,"If you're looking for the original radio cuts, these definitely aren't it. Look elsewhere. However, if you would delight in hearing half the original members of Gary Puckett and the Union Gap wheeze their way through ""Young Girl"" (done 30 years later in a much lower key), then by all means buy this album."
108386,1,K-TEL junk,"Only two tracks are the original: Happy Together by the Turtles and Gimme Little Sign by Brenton Wood. The other 16 are re-recorded. The front and back covers have this statement: ""All selections are new stereo recordings performed by the opriginal artist or one or more members of the original group. Selections marked with an (*) are the original recordings.""Stay away from this substandard compilation.See uploaded images.K-TEL UPC 805087354127ECD EAN 5020959304627"
108424,1,A major disappointment,"Vonnegut and Adams are two of my favorite authors, and -- perhaps more importantly -- I loved Bo Fowler's other book, Scepticism, Inc. Very sadly, though, I found The Astrological Diary of God to be tough to even finish. It's too focused on masturbation, the characters are otherwise not very compelling, and the story seems to lose itself halfway through the book. That said, I highly encourage readers who like Vonnegut and similar authors to check out Scepticism, Inc. and, personally, intend to read whatever Bo Fowler publishes next."
108437,1,Not what is pictured,"Beware, this is not SportDogs materials. The wire and flags are aftermarket. Very dissappointed."
108455,1,Enter cliches!,"I saw this movie after hearing that it was cute and funny and an overall good chick flick. I wish I could kick whoever told me that. It seemed to use every cliche in the book and was VERY predictable. I'm sorry, but I just can't give this more than two stars - and that's only because Matthew is good looking"
108470,1,Don't waste time - Just buy a HP,I gave one star because I can't give a 0 star. Paper jam for every page (Honest to God). My big question is Why & How is Konica still in the printer business ?
108471,1,Staywell pet door is a piece of junk.,"If you try to install this piece of junk, all you will end up with is an ugly hole in your door, hours wasted, and your extreme anger. It is simply impossible to cut a hole to the exact tolerances required to make this work properly. It doesn't even come with the proper screws to hold it in place properly. I bought one smaller one for my cat and this one for my dog. I have high-quality wood working equipment and I still couldn't make it work properly. This company is a bunch of swindlers - any one who tried to install this would immediately realize it is an unworkable design."
108478,1,nothing to get excited about.,"Everybody is praising this band for being one of the best out there. But my question is why? If the members of this band were not formerly from very successful bands, I can guarantee you they would not get all of the love they are receiving. This CD is boring, choppy, and unoriginal. It is better than a small quantity of its competition, but lacks in interest and creavtity."
108483,1,"Typical, boring, mainstream, etc.... no saviors of rock here","holy crap i listened to some of these songs on napster and i got a headache and almost went to sleep. Boring, boring, BORING! Even the ""heavy"" grunge tracks are boring. All the tracks are typical mainstream rock songs. Im sorta a fan of Rage, their alot more energetic and have more EXCITING guitar riffs. If you want real innovative, rock music check out PRIMUS (all hail les claypool, best bassist ever), Dream Theatre (cool prog rock), Red hot chili peppers (the masters of funk rock), Lostprophets (their kinda mainstream but at least you can listen to it without being bored), and for harder stuff definatley older metallica and for metal the swedish band In Flames (awesome guitars and singing) THIS IS CRAP"
108503,1,"CROWN FELL OFF, INTERIOR FOGGED UP","The first time I wore this watch in water (swimming in the Atlantic ocean), the interior was all fogged up; after about 3 months this went away. Then the crown (little stem where you change the time or date) fell off and I have no idea how to get it replaced. These are pieces of junk."
108528,1,Will Fails Once Again....,"Ever since Old School there hasnt been a Will Ferrell movie I could claim I enjoyed. Stranger then fiction, Semi-Pro, and now Step Brothers are just not funny and painful to sit through. Will made me laugh on SNL and he is a very funny man. But the disappointment I continue to get from his films is never ending. Sorting through the reviews on here where people claim they laughed from beginning to end is unbelieveable. What movie were you watching? Do you think a 2x4 to your own face is funny? There is a scene or two that I could muster a giggle at but to have someone claim they saw this in the theatre 3 times and they now own it on DVD is frightening on so many levels. Stay away from Step Brothers unless you want to encourage someone you dislike immensely to watch it. Tell them you saw it 3x in the theatre and you loved it."
108560,1,"The idea was there, but nothing else.","What a great idea-bring the dead back to life. Actually, they are 'REANIMATED'. With one little shot to the head all dead things can be reanimated. With: a BETTER script, BETTER acting, BETTER filming, BETTER effects, this COULD'VE been a good film. It looks like a rush job fresh from the 1-hour place."
108609,1,NnyCW for Capcom City,"Resident Evil Survivor, the black sheep of the Resident Evil family. Compared to the rest of the Resident Evil's, yes, this game is bad. However, it is not unplayable. The lack of any and all save points means that you're going to have to go thru the entire game in one sitting...and that can be quite a challenge. However, considering how easy the game is, it's not because of difficulty. This game just is bad. Now, if you have a bunch of friends over who love Resident Evil like you do and you just want to be able to say you beat them all, this game does have some redeeming value. It's great for a laugh with a group of friends at just how bad it is. This game is more of a collectors item for those who want to have the entire Resident Evil series and who want to beat them all rather than for those who want a fun and enjoyable game to play. Stay away unless you're Resident Evil thru and thru. NnyCW for CapCity."
108613,1,SAVE YOUR MONEY!,"Oh dear, i rented this and COMPLETED this ON MY FIRST GAME. Apart from using enemies from resident evil 2, this game is boring and a waste of time."

108651,1,Garbage,"This cleaning kit is garbage. The cleaning patches and mops were covered in lint. The bottom of the ""wooden box"" is made out of slightly sturdier material than balsa wood. The adapter to connect the .22 attachments to the the thinner rod is to big to put into the .22 barrel. I was not going to scratch up the rifling by giving it a try. Also the brass brush for the .22 looked a little too sturdy for my taste (it was all rod and barely any bristles). I used the .17 cleaning brush to give my .22 model 60 a basic cleaning as I did not want to damage my gun. Called the company and they are sending out replacement parts even though I do not see what having more of the same will do, but maybe they have newer/better version (fingers crossed). Just spend the extra money and buy quality pieces separately and make your own cleaning kit."
108740,1,"For history buffs, not for memory techniques",I was disappointed in the book for it gives detailed history of Ricci's time but very little information on his actual memory palace techniques.
108870,1,It might just be the audiobook...,"But I'm feeling NO emotion from this. The narrator just makes it boring. Even so I thought I should feel something for the poor mouse, after all her boyfriend died. Honestly though? I hated Ragweed. I guess he was supposed to sound cool? It was just, for lack of a better word, stupid.I can't attach myself to any of the characters, I hate them all.The 'action' is bland, too.Avi does have a book or two that are worth while, just not this one."
108894,1,Please benefit from my pain and stay away from this book,"I have a record of straight As in every undergrad math course there is, and some graduate ones too. I am back in school as a PhD candidate, and find this book among the worst I have seen on the topic. The author's explanation of concepts are poor or nonexistent, and the examples skip steps and do not provide the student the opportunity to learn incrementally. I have reviewed several books on the subject now, and I recommend checking out Prob & Stats for Engineers and Scientists by Walpole and Meyers, 6th Edition. It's crystal clear, consistent and is saving my degree program!"
108904,1,Wrong description of color by seller,"I ordered this product twice, and ended up returning both orders. I wanted to buy the organza favor bags in color 'ivory'. The first time I received the order, I returned the favor bags because I assumed they made a mistake and sent me the favor bags in 'white' color. I placed the order again, but again received 'white' favor bags. The description is color 'ivory', but definitely not 'ivory'. The favor bags are 'white'. Amazon refunded the shipping charge both times, so I cannot complain about Amazon!"
108910,1,It took them 3 years to come up....with this?,"Wow, Family Guys comback could not have been more dissapointing. There are maybe 3 or 4 good episodes in this entire set. I think the writers stopped caring about writing actual stories and instead opted for ""Hey lois this is better then the time I...."" moments. The episodes have little to no story and almost no cohesion. Many of the gags are not even jokes they are ""hey I know what thats from"" gags."
109052,1,Free... way,"The story of the book is simply good. You will twitch your lips sometimes, but you can be sure that you will know every freeway and every street in LA and surroundings and that is a loss of time while reading. If you keep out all driving directions you will have a book of 200 pages, definitely not the best book written by RC."
109098,1,wrong size and bad service,"I was sent the wrong size bassinet sheets, not 16x32. Also, when I called the customer service line for ababy it was a voicemail and I was not called back for a few days. I had to pay the shipping costs back as well as a restocking fee. Don't waste your time with ordering from ababy through amazon or ababy at all. I found the right size bassinet sheets at toys-r-us."
109112,1,An utterly dissapointing fantasy from a favorite author,"Boring. Tedious. Predictable. Dull. Words I never would have associated with Neil Gaiman. Until now.I cannot believe this book was written by the author of ""Sandman"" (for DC Comics) and ""Good Omens"" (with Terry Pratchett) both of which I enjoyed immensely. To put it simply, this book reads like what somebody attempting to write like Neil Gaiman would turn out, and not at all the sort of thing I would expect from Mr. Gaiman himself.I read ""Good Omens"" twice (and will probably read it again. I re-read all of the ""Sandman"" periodically). Not only will I never read the garbage that is ""Neverwhere"" again, I regret having wasted a portion of my life reading it in the first place."
109118,1,Common Sense,"Unless someone grew up with no social graces, this book is full of absolute common sense. A unfortunate complete waste of money, do not buy"
109136,1,greasy,"When I first used it, I thought the greasyness would disappear, but it did not, and I added and my makeup and it balled up, don't know if this would work, I have stopped using it, and I even used less rubbed more, no way, could this enter your skin."
109166,1,Somewhat helpful,"For the most part, there is nothing this book can teach you that you won't find in your casebook, but the problems are good practice. A lot of the information is helpful, but I don't know if you can trust all of the answers. My study group and I have found various confusing mistakes within and it has cost us valuable study time. See e.g. page 152 --second paragraph explaining a RAP problem (the author confuses O and A in saying that all of A's children would be born or conceived upon O's death)."
109179,1,Not for running...,"I bought these bands to wear when running at night in the winter. However, the velcro is not lined on the back and has sharp corners. I didn't even try them because I knew that they would snag my running tights all up. I returned them and will be buying more bands from Amphipod instead. These would work great when worn over pants while biking but can't be worn over delicate fabrics."
109223,1,not good,This item is too hard for a 8 year old child to paint all the small areas.I would not recommend
109241,1,Great Potential but Very Flawed,"After using products from ULead, Sonic, Microsoft (MovieMaker 2), and now Pinnacle (Studio 8 with updated patches) I have come to the conclusion that there are no options for affordable and reliable DV editing at this point. Studio 8 is the best in terms of features, but is unpredictably buggy (especially at the rendering and burning stages). I have completed ~10 full DVD projects to date, and have experienced every type of bug: audio drift, rendering freeze, compiling freeze, etc. For very simple projects, you may have a successful final burned DVD 75% of the time. Not good enough.If you have the money and are looking for a reliable product, I would suggest looking at Premiere (although I don't have experience with it). If you have an even higher budget, don't waste your time here - look at Avid DVExpress.As a video amateur, I'm still waiting for a consistently stable program for DV editing and DVD authoring."
109255,1,Is the author BRAINWASHED?,"Unfortunately, the option of zero stars was not available for this book. This is conservative reactivism at its worst. The author obviously misunderstood the purpose of a university education. The point of higher education is to open your eyes, not to further close them to the possibility of new ideas. Coming from the MECCA of campus ""liberalism,"" Berkeley, the leftist exterior is a faccade for latent conservatism."
109281,1,An Amelia Fan,"I looked forward to this book because I have thought for awhile that it would be a great idea to discover some of those lost journals and fill in some time gaps. However, this book was not satisfying at all. I loved Ramses as a child. However, the grownup Ramses I find a dull bore. Please Ms. Peters, for future books with lost journals find some further back in time when the focus can be on Amelia and Emerson whose relationship is the heart and soul of these stories. The later books focus too much on Ramses and Nefret."
109319,1,Not acceptable,I found the shoes too heavy for tennis. The cover over the laces made it difficult to pull the laces tight. I cut off the cover and that made it better. The advertisement on the back of one of the shoes came off which wasn't a functional part of the shoe so it didn't matter. The strip is still on the other shoe. I wouldn't buy this shoe style again. I bought it through Amazon and had not tried it on before purchase. Barbara Reynolds
109348,1,Pokemoron :(,"Here is the number one sleeping pill in the world. If you have trouble sleeping play this game (not that it should be considered a game, games are supposed to be fun). It was boring boring boring. The graphics were horrible the plot was stupid. You can't catch them all unless you waste money on buying blue, yellow, and red. They have now come out with gold, silver, and cyrstal so you can try to catch more creatures. The game was so easy that I was able to beat it even though I am a novice. The piont is to beat the tar out of stupid nonexistent monsters to train and battle them so you can become number one so other trainers can try and beat up your pokemon. I think this game is a waste and anyone who buys it is going to ultimatly come to the same conclusion as I have. Don't waste your money as the craze will die down soon."
109456,1,I'll never learn!,"This ""supposed"" hair curler is the biggest farce of a product I've ever encountered or wasted money on. After using it your hair still looks like you just crawled out of bed. From the clumsy curler to the way the curler mashes the hair, there is absolutely no way this product can leave you with a head of hair that you would take out in public. The only reason I still have it, is because I got sick and couldn't test it out before the 30 days were up. I just made some rich guy OR girl a little richer - story of my life. Bottom line. Don't waste your money."
109492,1,Below my expectations,"I found 3 problems with this toaster oven right away.1. I put the dial on the darkest setting and the bread is not fully toasted at the end of the cycle. It's barely light brown at that point. You have to hit the button for a 2nd cycle, although you only need maybe less than 30 seconds.2. During the first cycle, it starts emitting steam thru the front of the unit (along the sides of the glass).3. Unlike my old toaster oven from Black & Decker which I had for many many years, at the end of the cycle it doesn't ""ring"" to let you know the cycle is done. This means you have to stand there and watch for when it's done.Why did I throw out the box it came in right away, which is something I never usually do when I buy a new product?? Ughh."
109532,1,Not what I expected,"Didn't get good suction with the blaster, even tried changing to the smaller size cup. No change in drains noted."
109538,1,Weak and bendable...do not count on this to shut off your gas!,"when tested on my meter, the ""wrench"" bent, but the valve did not move. after calling the gas company to see if my shutoff valve was stuck and getting a service call from them i was told there was nothing wrong with my shutoff valve but that the so-called ""wrench"" is too weak to do the job. ""Get a large crescent wrench"" was the gas man's advice."
109590,1,Waste of a rental fee,"This is probably the worst movie I have ever seen, and I have been known to enjoy some pretty bad movies. I wanted to turn it off, but for some reason, I just kept watching. Afterwards, I was so mad that I wasted my time and money on this piece of c***. I am seriously embarrassed for the people involved in making this movie. It just kept getting worse. There is a post below that mentions the ridiculous elevator scene. I just kept thinking ""How stupid do they think we are?"" I know it's tempting, but please, for your sake, resist the urge to buy or rent this."
109616,1,Buy Wet Ones instead,"I bought Dove Body Refreshers last summer, hoping they would be a nice pick me up in the middle of the day when my body was oily or sweaty. This product comes in Fresh Scent and Original Scent, and I have the Original Scent. I did not enjoy this product for a few reasons. When I used the wipes on my face and neck, I still felt oily. Since the product is called Body Refreshers with moisturizer, I assumed it would be a cleansing wipe that moisturized as well (this is why I thought I could use it on my face too). However, these wipes do not make me feel clean. After using one of the cloths, I only feel like I've put perfume over sweat. I prefer Wet Ones to this product, because Wet Ones take away the oily/grimy feeling without drying me out, and Wet Ones are antibacterial. The Dove moisturizers are not meant to use as a wipe for hands (unlike Wet Ones), which is disappointing.Conclusion: These wipes did not make me feel clean, and they are too heavily perfumed."
109665,1,Velo Webspring Bicycle Seat,The bicycle seat is comfortable however it does not wear well. As you continue to use it the material will tear and as time passes the foam will show through. The covering on the seat should be made of a more durable material
109767,1,Not Good,"I saw these actors live in London, performing The Reduced Shakespeare's Complete Works of William Shakespeare. Afterwards, I immediately set out to purchase that performance on DVD. Thinking that the Complete History of America was of the same caliber, I purchased this DVD as well. It was a waste of money. There were moments of humor, but these moments were few and far between. The most humorous part actually had nothing to do with their skits, but rather occurred ad hoc as they discussed a late arrival to their performance. It was so disappointing that I could not even watch the show to the end. While I highly recommend their Complete Works of William Shakespeare, I would run from their performance of the Complete History of America. Honestly, you could not pay me to watch this again."
109915,1,Larger than advertised,"While the cookie cutters seem to be of good quality - the advertised size of ""about 1 1/2"" size"" is not correct, The cutters I received are twice that size - measuring a little over 3""."
109994,1,borrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnngggggggggggg,i didnt like this movie of crocodiles & snakes so i plan on selling the dvd of the two most misunderstood and feared and perhaps dangerous reptiles!it's not the best one out there!
110004,1,bad packaging,"I liked this lips stain but the bottle does not close tightly. While closing the first bottle. I broke the lid. I took it back and it was replaced but I was warned that it was a delicate lid. When I was careful not to close the second bottle too tight, it opened up IN MY PURSE!. I think I should get a refund. But I'm done with this stain. Bobbie Brown has a creamy stain that doesn't drip and lasts just as long and stays moist."
110052,1,Useless and overpriced and clunky,"After trying my brother in law's Kindle for a week, I have drawn the following conclusions of the device itself. The technology behind its feel is like driving a 1986 Buick. I was unimpressed. It is difficult to mark areas or return to areas you would like to re read, It is too expensive, the downloads for some books actually cost more than the hard copy, the screen darkened on me for a couple of minutes and I had to restart the thing.Why not just buy the book used? Can I get one autographed by the author? What's cheaper, leaving your kindle on the bus or a book?$350 will buy a lot of books, even at retail prices."
110112,1,Toooo Expensive,When the price of the Kindle drops to $50 it might be worth considerations. What's that you say? You pass on your books to friends when your finished? Not eBooks!
110198,1,Why buy books I cannot share?,"I love the idea of eBooks... carrying around my entire library on a small device, being able to search and bookmark, etc. It's brilliant.But why would I buy a book if sharing that book with a friend would make me a criminal? Why would I buy a book if some large corporation can be looking over my shoulder, watching what I read?Right now books are free to trade, share, and even resell. Unless an ebook reader allows that, it's a non-starter for me."
110206,1,Dershowitz is Either Morally Insane or a Moral Idiot,"This man's thesis is so palpably evil that it is a disgrace that such a book would be issued by a major publisher. If Dershowitz had his way this would be an even bloodier and more insane world than it already is. What next, Dershowitz's own variation of ""The Turner Diaries""? I wouldn't be surprised."
110247,1,You gotta be KIDDING,"Obviously the ""action movie"" audience is very much lacking in anything resembling standards. I rented this film after being told how ""awesome"" it was. I found myself alternately laughing at it or wondering what the hell the director was thinking when he made it. The whole premise of the film is a joke. Switching faces? PLEASE! By the time they got to where Nicholas Cage was hanging on to the side of speedboat, basically waterskiing without WATERSKIS, I was laughing so hard my sides hurt. I had expected better after Broken Arrow, which, while quite DUMB, was at least entertaining. I only hope this review will save some poor innocent from buying this monstrosity."
110262,1,NEVER RECEIVED ONE MAGAZINE!!!!,I PLACED A 1 YEAR SUBSCRIPTION ORDER FOR SOUTHERN LIVING IN FEBRUARY AND IT IS NOW AUGUST AND I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ONE MAGAZINE YET!!!
110315,1,My third and last Palm,"I've been an avid Palm fan for several years, but the experience just buying my Palm Vx has been horrific. The CD was corrupt, but Palm would not replace it until I'd spent a week calling for help. After the replacement CD arrived, strange things kept happening, like 3 months of my MS Outlook calendar being purged! After spending several hundred dollars having tech support come in (thinking it was user error) I started again with Palm Tech support. The hardware was bad, and it took more than 15 hours, over a week and a half to get them to admit it and trade for a refurbished unit. There is now a two week backorder on the re-furbished units. I've since polled friends, and it looks like the Palm Vx has some serious problems as everyone who bought one recently has had problems. Buy a IIIx or a Handspring."
110332,1,Victim Feminism to the Core,This movie proved to me once an for all that successful female writers of our day have only one plot line (no matter how much they try to disguise it). And at the heart of this movie is the same old tired women-as-victim theme that indicates a staggering lack of imagination.The landscape was pretty.
110351,1,boring as hell!,"I rented this video thinking it was a comedy. I was so wrong.After 40 minutes I was falling asleep, I pushed myself into the end of it, and it didn't get any better.Bad movie, bad theme, boring, you can invest your time staring at the wall, I can guarantee you will be happier!"
110372,1,Can't watch due to digital formatting issues,"I bought this with high expectations since I caught the first part on TV and became intrigued. I checked the TV show listings for the future and it was not available again by my service provider, so to finish on TV was no longer an option. I bought the DVD hoping to finish the flick, but the DVD that I received does not play on any of my DVD players (3 of them) - the screen shows a""formatting error"" message, as if it is not compatible with DVD players here in the United States. Who knows, maybe it will play in another country with other formats, but it is useless to me. Beware of this issue if you are in U.S.A. and you choose to buy - hopefully you get one you can actually watch, since it seemed like pretty fun movie from the part that I watched on TV..."
110380,1,oliver1997,"Awfull,want to see a good version try Oliver 1967 (only available in UK)Or wait until September 05 yet another version is being released"
110404,1,YAWN!!,"What an amazingly boring, predictable movie. Having watched this movie, I no longer suffer from insomnia. The premise is great. A time travel story with a romantic twist but it is unbelievable in its love story and I figured out the end after ten minutes of sitting through the horrible pain of watching Meg Ryan play the SAME CHARACTER I have seen her play for the past 15 years and not be nearly as appealing as she can be. The performances are one demensional. The writing is bland. I found myself not caring what happened, I just wanted it to be over. Don't waste your time and especially your money. This movie is really one for your ""miss it"" list. Unless of course, your sleeping pills have not been working well."
110467,1,Proof that too many producers spoil the movie!,"As bad as it sounds. Really now, how do movies like this get made? Nine producers were responsible for this mess. Everything about it screams direct-to-video, which is exactly where it ended up. I wonder if that's what all those producers originally planned. Don't even waste your time watching it for free on TV. So un-funny, so badly acted, it hurts."
110469,1,predictable and dumb,"predictable, and Roseanna Arquette is TERRIBLE in this. She was great in ""Desperately Seeking Susan."" Her fake NY accent here sucked."
110475,1,Barber King AS17587,"This is a poor product it did not work at all. Don't buy for any reason. I bought it to trim ear hair and when I tried it the cutter just stopped, so the product is a rip off don't waste your money.Mike"
110535,1,Hated the pictures!,"If you are looking for a very graphic explanation with crudely drawn pictures, this is the book for you. I like to view the birds and the bees as something beautiful and this book is definitely not that. I did not pass it along to my child."
110606,1,Wrong product description,The item description was for audio cd's and I received cassette tapes and had no way of listening to them. Something needs to be done about matching the item to its posted description before mailing.
110622,1,It covers,"The only thing this pool table cover does is cover the pool table. It is however, not strong enough to last any length of time if you take it off and put it on frequently. It rips very easily, so I give it 2 stars only because it does fit and covers the pool table nicely."
110645,1,PROBLEMS,"THE PERFUME I BELEIVE WAS WATERED DOWN, SECONDLY I AM VERY ANGRY THAT I PAYED FOUR DOLLARS FOR GIFT WRAPPING AND WHAT I GOT WAS A BOX IN A BOX FILLED WITH PAPER SHAVINGS, I USUALLY LOVE YOUR COMPANY BUT THIS TIME I AM VERY DISSAPOINTED AND WOULD LOVE MY MONEY BACK, AT LEAST THE $4.00 FOR THE GIFT WRAPPING. THE WHOLE GIFT WAS A DISSAPOINTMENT. SINCERELY ROBERT LAWERENCE"
110799,1,Joke doesn't even begin to describe this movie,Where to begin? Hmmm...how about everywhere. Was this written by an MTV teenie bopper? I find it hard to believe that anyone could anything appealing or enjoyable about this movie. Sooooo ridiculously bad. Still can't believe I sat through it.
110810,1,not that great,"I'm an old hand with kettles, I thought I'd give this one to my spouse for our anniversary, but it was a bit of a dud. When the kettle was ready to boil the lid would fall down, steam would go everywhere. And it would often take ages to turn itself off. Looked great but...Think I'm going to get the braun instead."
110853,1,"Biased Portrayal, Showing Jesuit-Opus Rivalry","Walsh, a former Jesuit, bases many conclusions about Opus (admittedly) on the Prelate's constitution of 1950! He holds the Prelature hostage to practices based on thier rule of half a century ago. What if someone's only view of America's south was a snapshot of 1954? While it may be true that Escriva was slow to embrace the liturgical changes of the Second Vatican Council, so were thousands of clerics ordained before 1969.Opus influence in anti-Marxist dictatorships is frequently cited, yet there exists no apology for Jesuits holding state positions in Ortega's Sandanista Cabinet! He concludes that Opus is ""less Christian"" than those who practice Liberation Theology. Ironically, it was a member of Walsh's former Order that was a US Congressman with a Pro-Abortion voting record."
110879,1,What?,"What's wrong with the missing ones? Around The World, Can't Stop, Aeroplane...WTF??? GREATEST hits my ass."
110898,1,Chili's what have you done?,"I am a major Chili's fan, they're probably my fave band, but this album majorly disappointed. It is lacking one of the essential things that makes the Chili's such a great band, Flea's Funky Bass. Where's it gone? This is in my opinion their worse album and I would advise fans who like their earlier stuff against it. It does contain some pretty good chill out songs and Anthony's lyrics are great, as per usual. But don't buy this get one of their other great albums instead."
110938,1,Ignore this release!,"First off, I love this show. I really love it and I was happy to hear it was coming to DVD via CreateSpace! But buyer beware, these episodes on this set are not how they were aired or seen. These episodes are the same ones found on Amazon Instant Video. As another Amazon reviewer Uncle Biff pointed out and I quote ""The episodes have been cut up and rearranged from their original order into new ""theme"" episodes, taking matches from different episodes (and seasons) which meet the theme criteria (ex ""Divas Of Destruction) and joining them together to make new episodes."" Unquote. As soon as I found out the episodes on Amazon Instant Video and DVD were one and the same, I canceled my order. So if you really want Celebrity Deathmatch on DVD, keep waiting and hope Paramount, MTV, or Shout! Factory will release the series as how it was aired and seen."
111002,1,dissapointed,"I was so excited when we bought the ""best of raw"" video, but when i watched it I thoght it magorly sucked so if you want to waster your money go to buy the video!"
111178,1,"Don't buy, will brake no warranty","I purchased 2, one of them didn't even made it to 7 months of use, by a 120lb female. There's a plastic part between the base and the shaft. This part fell down and is getting grinded with every swivel, producing black plastic shavings. The supposedly ""limited"" warranty, means YOU GET NO WARRANTY AT ALL, that's what the vendor basically told me. If I were you I would buy a cheaper barstool, that way when it breaks, you don't feel like an idiot for spending so much on a piece of junk."
111179,1,Poor quality and poor customer service,"I rarely rate items...but in this case, I am so irate that I will do everything I can to prevent other shoppers from making the mistake I did.We purchased 4 of these Venus barstools 2 1/2 years ago - primarily because they are adjustable. The visual appearance is very good...but the quality of the ""gas lift"" air cylinder is poor. Two of these gas lifts have failed. I have contacted Hillsdale furniture direct, and was told that these chairs are now made by a new manufacture...and parts are not available for our barstools. (I have the email)This means that we basically have to throw out our chairs and start over. (over $600 invested)Do not buy...unless you only need your chairs to last 2 years!"
111249,1,I can't recommend this one -,"My lab (18 months) loves the Kong squeaker tennis balls. Amazingly, she doesn't destroy them like she has other cheap versions. The football came and she definitely loved running around with it and squeaking it. BUT the first time she lay down to squeak on it for a bit she managed to tear the edge off the cover by the big blue spot in less that a minute or two. The rubber there just gives too much of an edge they can tear with their teeth that the balls don't have. Too bad."
111268,1,Amazon recommends purchase of combs which do not fit this trimmer,I bought this trimmer and the set of combs that Amazon recommends to go with them and the combs do not fit. Do not buy the suggested combs! They are made for a different model. See other comments on the combs page. We are very disappointed and now don't know if this clipper even has combs that go with it. The Andis site is not very helpful so far.
111296,1,Copy of what is already available on the web ...,"-in the first place, it is not ""in depth"" what you will find in this small booklet, but superficial;- in the 2nd place, this material is already presented on the web elsewhere (and free of charge ..)- in the 3rd place, there are a couple of errors in the calculations and formulas.- As well it looks like a ""cut & paste"" product out of the otherbooks from Bruce ...Bottom Line: it is not worth the money"
111310,1,DO not be juju'd by this book,"Not only is this poorly written and sophmoric it is hard to believe that a publisher would actully try to sell it (I found an old copy at a hostel in Africa. I found out why only the first 25 pages had been read) If you are serious about Africa, the experience it can provide, or want to have a really good armchair travel experience read ANYTHING else...It is just that bad"
111415,1,The bane of my existence,"This phone it the bane of my existence. I urge anybody in the market for the xv6600 to please listen to my experiences and make your decision accordingly. I have created a list of minimum expectations of PDA's in general which anybody, regardless of the device they are looking for, should make sure their investment meets in order for it to bring the functionality and reliability you really do need. The rest of my review is available athttp://johnpatota.com/xv6600.htm"
111488,1,OK,"The book ""The Teacher who couldn't read"" , started to slow all to the mid. but as I read along I couldn't put it down."
111530,1,Net tore on the first day of use,"We just bought this item for our 10 year old son, who loves to play soccer. It was pretty easy to set up with clear directions, and everything was as described in the listing. However, after my 10 year old, my 8 year and I were playing with it for a few hours having a great time, one of my sons pointed out that that the net was already torn. Upon further inspection, I realized he was right and that the net appeared to be very low quality.I later contacted Franklin about a warranty claim, but they weren't taking calls. I emailed my claim a few days ago per their instructions, but I have yet to hear anything back. I called today, but didn't reach a live person - I left a message. Someone called me back and apologized that I didn't get a confirmation, but I should be receiving the replacement net in a week or so. So that part of customer service was very good.Hopefully the new net holds out better."

111640,1,Electric Football board game,This game is not much of a challenge in fact not a challenge at all when the only way of winning is by pure chance. A new game needs to be invented. One where the is a real scheme involved on both sides of the ball. And one you can develop skill along with the schemes you desire. Please look for the next great football board game invention. I know they're out there and yes I do know of one.Regards David Gonzales
111645,1,i shouldve listened!,i should've listened to micheal dooling! his reviews were right on the dot. it is a hassle to use this product. before i got the bridge i was actually doing ok with the monster rca wires. im gonna try to return the product.
111658,1,Predictable and bad,"Look..there is enough juice in this movie to watch it and some people will find it entertaining but when something is so obvious 15 minutes into the movie, really bothers me.ok..spoiler alert. The fact that they casted Beau Bridges as the lead bad guy was a complete giveaway. I knew it the minute i saw him. Why cast such a predictable actor? He plays roles like this often. Sure enough, by the end of the movie i was right."
111674,1,STILL WAITING,"On July 29, 2011 the money for this movie was taken out of my account, tracking said it was delivered but never received it. Cannot get a hold of anyone to get this matter taken care of. Not so sure I want to order any more through amazon.com. I do like this movie if I ever get I will change this review, until then!!"
111688,1,Worked well..and then died,"I was pleased with its initial operation. It worked well and seemed sturdy, even if the water refill was a bit of a hassle. But then it died after 3 weeks. Amazon is sending a replacement and I do hope that the second one has a longer operational life. I dont know if I just received a 'bad' machine or if these are just poorly manufactured."
111729,1,Jin-boring,"This film was disappointing, overrated and terrible! I liked the look of the federal police costume and the animation was about 7.5 out of 10. But be warned, the action is 1 out of 10! I could not believe how boring this movie was! I was expecting a cool action film concept; this was way off the mark. The dialog was so boring and monotone I fought very hard to stay awake! I felt like someone was telling me a lullaby. The DVD artwork for the movie showcases the cool police armor but the armor could have been left out of the movie and it wouldn't have changed the movie at all? It was only in the movie for about 15 minutes and was very poorly developed in my opinion. It was like some gimic the artists used to trap people into watching the movie?"
111766,1,Worst recorder I've Ever Owned,"Bought this three weeks ago. The sound quality is so muffled that it is almost unintelligible. I now have to buy a replacement after using this model for 8 hours or so. Do not buy this Sony ""Made in China"" product."
111807,1,I'm only giving it one star cuz I half to,"If your a so-called V.C. Andrews ghost writer fan then you'll probably like this book. But if your a fan of the Real V.C. Andrews then your like me and hated it. I don't know why I read these books there always the same. Whimpy sappy girl grows up in some kind of sterotypical slums and is the smartest one out of the family of yokles or hood rats. She is smart beautiful and well spoken. She never gives her mommy (momma) any trouble or her evil Daddy (pa0. And she is a wonderful singer,dancer,painter,actress or all of the above. Then one day her rose color glasses are knocked of by some kind of soap opera betrayal. She is sold or kidnapped. Get some new ideas for crying out loud people are hip to your same ol same ol plots.

111944,1,WCF12 and the ipaq h2215,"I'm going on 4 months now and still this card does not work with my ipaq. I'm running WIN CE4.20 on the ipaq, I've tried installing the drivers every-which-way I can think of to no avail. Linksys support did not help, they are just as baffled as to why. I'm running a 3-system wireless network using Linksys everything works great, just can't get this card to work. I've been reading all kinds of reviews from all kinds of web-sites for this card, and have come to the conclusion that it does not work. I'm going to use bluetooth instead, hope that works."
111949,1,Chalk up another Burnt Motor,"Just adding to the LONG list of people who bought this router and watched it burn up after little to moderate use. I had mine for 3 yrs and am not a pro. THis router only saw occasional use over 3 yrs. The ring broke (as soon as the warrentee ran out of course)....made a ton of noise but kept running for a while. Then the lightning storm on the top and motor fried. Stunk up the whole house and now Im stuck with this pile.I have a lot of good tools and thought dewalt was a good brand, but Dewalt has now been added to my 'Never Again' list.I unfortunatly bought the 618 pak with all 3 bases and the nice case...which are now all a huge waste (anybody wanna buy em cheap? email me at [...]Im not going to pay to fix this thing..its a poor design and will only break again down the road.I guess ill buy a Bosch? Avoid Dewalt...maybe they 'used' to be good, but its clear from the experiences on this thread that they build a junk router."
111958,1,Light on Yoga,Light on Yoga is also light on interest. I ordered this book and The Yoga Bible. I am using the Yoga Bible and think it is very well put together and easy to use. Photography is also very good. Light on Yoga is just not put together in a user friendly manner.
111983,1,this is a scam,"I guess I misread the description, but I thought I was ordering a dozen childrens ""magic gloves"" for $5.63but this was actually 1 pair of little knit gloves for this price.

112031,1,Don't bother - just use the suction cup,Unless you need to get the GPS really close to you on the dash the suction cup mount provided in the package is smaller and more convenient. I wouldn't bother with this.
112085,1,10th Anniversary = Let-Down!,One of the most hyped anniversary shows ever and it turned out to be a tremendous let down. This was not fun to watch or entertaining in anyway. Another poster said that people were mad because no suprises at all. Maybe that is partially true but when the writers for this show didn't fully know the history it creates a problem. Take for instance... Raw match of the decade - TLC 5? Horrible pick! That match was a letdown all itself. The worst match of the series. You cannot tell me that was the best match in their existance because it was not. I would have been happy with Eddie Guerrero vs. Rob Van Dam in a Raw Ladder match but I still know there was better out there. WWE creative is trying real hard but they just are not in touch with the wrestling scene or in touch with what the fans want to see. This is will be a bad DVD to sell because not many people want to see this poor excuse again!
112131,1,Happiest Toddler on the Block,"I quess this book would be ok if you agree that humans evolved from lower life forms. I think I will be sticking with Dr. Dobsons ""The Strong Willed child"". I don't intend to be speaking to my toddler like a caveman."
112180,1,Poor performance,"I bought this waffle iron new and have had horrible results. I varied the temperature setting and recipe numerous times, but every waffle stuck to the iron and was a disaster. I hate this model and would not recommend it. Mine is on its way to the trash can."
112215,1,L?,What happenned I like LL but not this one maybe 2 hits and one is not that Garbage Headsprung....why would you try to go club thats not what you are known 4 so why try Dont waste youre money like I did If I would have been smart I would have just downloaded this!
112217,1,Not Expedition,"My friend has this and it works great. Unfortunately, it does not work with a Ford Expedition or any vehicle with plastic body moldings at the bottom of the door."
112246,1,not original,"I personally found this book to be annoying. The 2nd one was much better and the plot was better laid out. The style of writing here was not very good (please do not compare to Harry Potter because it does NOT even come close) and the characters seemed either over done or not enough. I'm sorry, but I didn't find it very real. However, in the Arctic Incident, I was kept better entertained. Unfortunately, in both books, Eoin Colfer needs DRASTIC character development because everyone is so...rigid."
112274,1,Straps for bike frame are useless,"After putting the unit on my 00 Toyota Solara for the first time and after placing my bike into the cradle, I proceeded to strap the bike's frame. Naturally one would want to fasten this securely. The plastic piece that the threading loops through immediately snapped. I put reasonable pressure on the thread as I pulled it through. This raises serious red flags on the integrity of this product over all. I'm going to attempt rigging it with bungee cable to see if I can create a much safer and secure method for transporting my bikes.Just be aware that these cables are useless. If it doesn't break when you get your bike secured in the cradle, then when? On the freeway, putting peoples lives at risk?"
112291,1,It [was poor]!,I am a big fan of Macaulay Culkin but this was one of his worst films. I remember seeing this movie during Thanksgiving break in 1994 and I hated it. The acting was great but I thought the movie was boring. If you want to rent a good Culkin film go rent Home Alone. This movie was pointless. Don't even think about renting this movie unless if you have a boring weekend.
112318,1,Working Safely With Chemicals,"I found this book elementary, and filled with unnecessary chatting. I bought it for a college course, as it was required for the class, and found it seemed very chatty. I don't like it."
112341,1,Dificult to mount and vibrate way too much,"I bought a pair of these... Dificult to mount, and too light weight to not vibrate wildly even with every boly fully torqued. Vibration at 55 MPH was so bad that the mirrors were useless. Fender mounts place the mirror too far away. I ended up buying door mount mirrors that are much better."
112468,1,its just not the same.......,"Cradle of filth has losted i admit i liked this cd when i first got it, but i only liked it for like the first 2 3 days i had it after that i havent really listen to it, i listen to principle of evil made flesh and from cradle to enslave more than nymphetamine, all it does now is collect dust, but if u have been a cradle of filth fan for a while youll problably like it for the first week or so, after a while itll get boring becouse dani repeats himself to much and if u are a musician once u hear the the music u can tell all of it is about the same thing it just reapeat its self over and over again, well what iam trying to say is that it sucks after a mwhile, thats about it hopefully their next cd is better than their last two i hope this helped u out peace...."
112471,1,"okay to borrow, but don't buy it","Kevin J. Anderson really disappoints me. When I read the summary of the book, I was really looking forward to a real superweapon. IT WAS A JOKE!!! I don't think Kevin really takes the Star Wars Universe seriously. Kevin has no right to kill off Madine on such a dumb mission. I feel as if the events of Darksaber didn't really matter...that they had no real effect on the characters. And when all is said and done, all the events can just be forgotten. Well I wish that I could just as easily wipe the book out of my memory.Don't buy this book. Borrow it, if you can, if you're curious. And if you can't, well don't worry, you're not missing much. I don't think I'll ever buy another KJA book again."
112512,1,do not buy!!,This tv was great for the 1st 1 1/2yrs. It completely died then. luckily we bought an exended warranty & it was fixed after about 3 wks. worked okay until now. 5 yrs old. just had a tech come ck it out. picture is neon pink & green static. tech called today- $600 to repair. and it is going to get repaired w/ same part they know is defective! no more samsungs. tech said they are 75% of his business.
112522,1,Wireless Connnection Drops and Does not Connect,"I have owned this product for over a year. The reason why I bought this as because of the N connectivity, and also because it was aesthetically pleasing. The router works fine when wired, however whenever we want to connect a wireless device its a hassle. The ""Wireless"" LED on the router is almost always off unless a device is connected wirelessly, the only solution is to restart the router to make the wireless connection available. The support page on Belkin's website has disappeared too. For that reason I will take off another Star. If I was in the market for a new router, I would not buy this knowing what I know now."
112539,1,not very satisfied,"1. there was no any bonus (pillow set), i had to purchase it separatily2. all this sheet set colored my matress (the matress now has pink color not everywhere - but with spots, what i suppose to do with it?)3. sheets are soft and i like the material.4. delivery was good - even faster then i expected"
112640,1,mediocre,"Two great hits, filled with one or two other mediocre songs, and 8 or 9 disposable, filler songs. I like KT, but she even tries to sing a song not within her vocal abilities. Beautiful song, that she doesn't quite sing right. It is also greatly underproduced (except for the two hits).Get the singles, forget the album."
112652,1,I am very disappointed in Sandra Brown's new style!!,"Sandra Brown go back to writing Romance, that is what you are good at and that is what your fans are looking to read. I WAS a #1 fan of Sandra Brown but her last two books have been terrible. She is trying to write suspense instead of romance and I don't think she makes it. Please, please go back to your old style of writing. This will be the last book I buy written by her if this is going to be her writing style."
112681,1,eh,"I like Dave Matthews but this CD all sounds the same to me. After one or two songs, I found myself tuning it out completely. I suppose that's a good thing if you like bland background music, but I was hoping for something more. It's not that I dislike individual pieces, but on the whole, I think I'll try to sell my copy."
112688,1,USELESS!,"This is a reprint of a pamphlet (30 to 50 some pages, depending on reproduced format) published in 1906. The first part of the pamhplet is 1900's preaching and moralizing. It compares world religions - all of which (called ""fancies"") loose when compared to Christianity. The second part of the pamphlet is a list in calendar form of the daily religious holidays/celebrations and observances in 1900's China."
112742,1,I can't see what all the fuss is about!,"Having seen this film before it's release in the UK, I am astonished at the reaction from all the movie buffs over here. Every review, in my opinion, has gone completely over the top. Although mildly entertaining, comments like ""hilarious"" and ""the best horror movie you'll see all year"" are way off the mark. The best thing about the movie for me was the fact that it was so short. Without wishing to spoil the movie for anybody else just as you're finally expecting something exciting and scary to happen, the film ends."
112791,1,Battery lasts less than 2 hours,I've only had this dvd player for six months. The battery pack is not dependable. I have completely de-charged and recharged the battery. The most time I can get is 1 hour 43 minutes playing time. Not long enough to view most movies. I would not recommend this product.
112809,1,A Lost Treasure,"I've never read a more disapointing ending in my life! This book is not worth reading. There's a herione that charms everyone with her breathtaking beauty and carries herself like Aubrey Hepburn while not showing any of the wear and tear of being a divorced single-mother that hates her job! Then there's the loathsome FBI agent haunted by one of the dumbest lines of logic I've ever seen! Then there's the sadistic spook that kills everyone he comes in contact with, yet spares the life of his nemesis and lets him tag along to foible his plans! Imagine seeking a lost treasure chest only to find it and destroy it before you even see what's inside. That's what this book is about. Terrible."
112870,1,SHOT LIKE A CHEAP PORNO,Love Uncle Ted.Film is shot like a cheap porno.Cant crank it up. Audio lousy. Not punchy at all. Video is home style as well. Poor production all around.
112961,1,disappointed,"I bought this because I loved this book when I grew up, however it was very disappointing. The illustrations are crude and I found the story to be to simple. I wish I had found the version I read when I grew up."
112997,1,Disappointed,"This is an excellent motivational book. The book is out of print, so I had ordered a used copy to give as a gift. I was disappointed in the book I received. Its description had been ""like new,"" but it came to me without a dust jacket, with an inscription written in ink in the front, and with green marker on a few pages. The book was to be given as a gift, so having an inscription already written to someone else in the front made that impossible. These things should have been noted in the product description and would have made a difference in my decision to purchase. I probably won't purchase from this company again - and, in fact, it's made me question the wisdom of purchasing used books sight-unseen over the Internet. Be careful."
113005,1,Pearls of the Pacific,"The material is there for an excellent book,however, this is really a poorly written book.It is very difficult to follow, as it jumps from subject to subject and never completes any of them.As a career USN sailor,many of the ships I served in often visited Subic Bay in the mid 1950's, and my family and I lived there from 1975through 1978. We lived on the base, but often visited Olongopo and saw the things the writter tries to describe.This is just a very poor attempt to describe some of the events that occured in SubicBay."
113065,1,Not very good,"Purchased this phone and am returning it since it ""hums"" whenever there is a call. I even tried it at my vacation home in a different state but experienced the same problem. Not worth the hassle."
113082,1,NO Replacement parts,I purchased this bird feeder a couple of years ago and it works well. The squirrels did figure out how to get bird seed when it was hanging on our pergola. So we put it on a pole and it was squirrel proof for a year. The squirrels did mange to jump on top of the feeder and knock the cover off. We would replace it but after we replaced it many times the piece that holds the cover on came off. We can't find the part and PERKY PET DOES NOT SELL REPLACEMENT PARTS! Now it is useless. Very disappointed!
113096,1,not worth a read,"i've always liked Archer's books-----but this one was a big let down. i can't believe that the same author wrote books like NOT A PENNY LESS NOT A PENNY MORE & SHALL WE TELL THE PRESIDENT. the auhtor borrows heavily from his previous books--be it Nat reffering to paintings as mistresses(short story),or his son hanging himself on finding out that his grandmotherwas a prostitute(similar to daniels death in AS THE CROW FLIES) or even the love story of the twins parents-which is very similar to the short story AN OLD LOVE. this book is a waste of time and money-both which may be used to buy and read better stuff."
113185,1,Repetitive,"This album is a minor improvement on the first edition of teom, but the new songs arent that great either. Dont forget about us sounds exactly like we belong together, and her songs are too rnbish. I liked the old mariah who was contemporary, and didnt succumb to peer pressure of the music industry."
113189,1,The Over Milking of Mimi,"mariah needs to stop ripping her fans off. She is a cow who needs to lose some weight, or cover up all that blubber. Geese man, each time she steps onto my telly, she can hardly fit within the frame!!!!"
113194,1,Bad advice that can cause your child danger!,"This book is giving mis-information about the treatment of newborn jaundice. Susan Weed, the author, does not have a high school education - she is not knowledgeable on the subject which she is giving advice when it comes to the treatment of newborn jaundice. Her advice to use sunlight, as a natural cure can result in the infants death. I have not read other chapters of this book, but would advise that if the information she gives is similar to the advice given in the treatment of jaundice - then you could be risking your child's life. Read her bio at the amazon authors website and buy at your own risk!"
113206,1,Don't support this art thief,Steals artwork from other artists and passes it off as his own. Check out the wikipdedia article for many examples.
113249,1,Bad Battery,"Charged the battery for 24 hours. Did not work. Charged longer ... nothing. Of course, child disappointed. Called Fisher Price and they sent me one free of charge. Would never order this type of product through Amazon again."
113283,1,Cosmo subscription,"I have a Cosmo and a maxim subscription, I've gotten like three maxim subscriptions in the time it has taken me to get one Cosmo subscription"
113322,1,Silpat,Silpat is non-stick the first time you use it. After that it is no different than any other surface despite the advertising.
113348,1,Quit working after minimal use,"I had this jewelry cleaner for less than a year before it quit working. While it cleaned my jewelry quite well, I was very disappointed that it didn't work for more time. For almost $40, it should have worked for at least a few years. Apparently there is an issue with the seal and water seeping into the unit and frying the controls... so it's poorly manufactured. Please don't waste your money on this unit."
113374,1,Should Have Listened to the Other Reviewers!,"I decided to take a chance on this kettle because there were quite a few positive reviews. I figured maybe I'd get one of the good ones. Hah! I got a leaker. It leaked after the first use. I tried it 2 more times just to be sure and it leaked both times. Also, the filter that came with it was not like the one shown in the picture. Mine was silver, not gold, and didn't have the cross pieces. Very flimsy filter. And the spout was different also. There were no tabs for the filter to slip into. You just snap the filter in place and hope it stays. All in all, a waste of time. Thank heaven for Amazon's 30 day return policy."
113406,1,What a disappointment!,"My husband and I watched this entire movie, and when it was over, neither of us knew what we had seen. Having never read it, I can only hope the book is better than the screenplay."
113478,1,"Despicable, Disgusting and Disturbing","I rented this movie because it had an all-star cast of actors that I had enjoyed seeing in other movies. In particular, I had just seen 'Broadcast News' again with Holly Hunter, and was anxious to see her performance here.But this movie is completely twisted--sick beyond belief. I am shocked that these stars would have ever agreed to be in the flick. What a 'downer' for their respective careers. If I was a Movie Cop, I would have all these people arrested and thrown in jail for putting out such indiscribable trash!Do yourself a favor, and don't waste your time on this one."
113495,1,Not unless you like wearing earplugs.,"I was drawn in by idea of a folding handle and retractable cord, but the cord is already failing to retract completely (I've only used the dryer about 3 times so far). I thought 1875 watts would mean a decent air flow, but it's only so-so. I have to keep it on the ""high"" setting to get my hair dry within a reasonable amount of time, and my hair isn't that thick or long.However, my biggest complaint is the EARSPLITTING noise! I wish I'd read the reviews before my purchase, because the critiques about how loud it is are absolutely on the mark. It's not just a high pitch, as suggested by one reviewer. It's an extremely loud hiss that sounds like an industrial factory operating at full capacity, inches from your ear. The ""low"" setting is not quite as loud, but as I explained earlier, the air flow is so wimpy at this setting that you might as well not even bother. I'm going to try and return this thing before I go deaf."
113551,1,what's up with the price?,"OK...best buy is selling this for $29.99. Amazon had this on here , 2 days ago for about $57. now it's $120????Something sure smells rotten here. Not worth it. A $30 package for $120.(And yes it is the special adition that Best Buy is selling for $29.99."
113590,1,"An agonizing drag, preposterous ending","The heroine, Carol, flees with her young son Keith to Palm Springs, California, to escape her violent ex-husband, Owen. In Palm Springs she seeks sanctuary at the gated estate of an aunt she had never met but with whom she had corresponded over the years. Her Aunt is a recluse but was once a famous Hollywood actress who ended her career abruptly under circumstances shrouded with mystery. Much of this novel is spent with Carol's agonizing over whether her ex-husband will snatch her son, Keith, as well as worrying about her fragile relationship with her aunt and whether her aunt will allow her and her son to stay at the estate. I did not enjoy this book at all. As a final insult, the ending was completely preposterous, even for fiction."
113661,1,"Not my favorite heating pad, sorry to say","This pad has only one heat setting and the massage unit is loud and ineffective. We've gone back to using our old standby unit that has to be at least 15 years old but has reliable, adjustable heat. This was a gift for my husband who was having back pain and I was embarrassed that it was so cheaply made."
113667,1,Lousy product,Thin reverberant sound. On the first 12 tracks (Berrys) all the information comes out of the right channel only. Totally annoying.The separate CD editions of Berrys and Jukebox Hits are probably the ones to go for.
113745,1,Notes are wrong,It only takes a few seconds to notice that this xylophone has two keys that play the same note. This makes it impossible to play any of the songs. Absurd.
113773,1,Don't get it wet--yeah right!,"My son got this for his birthday. He used it once, and somehow bubbles got into the inner mechanisms and it stopped working. Even after removing the batteries and letting it dry out, no dice. Not sure if there was a leak in the bubble dispenser, or it was just poorly made, but my son only got one use out of it."
113883,1,"Lots of one-sided political philosopy, very little history",This book is simply ham-handed political propaganda masquerading as history. Much of the space is spent indulging the author's rather naive philosophies while making only token attempts to justify projecting those philosophies upon the people and states described.
113894,1,Watch your child with this toy! The balls can fit in their mouths!,"We've had this Gumball Machine for a month. My son received it for his first birthday. He LOVES the toy. However, yesterday I watched as he shoved a ball into his mouth. It actually fit! Now the toy is in the closet until my son stops putting things in his mouth (who knows when that will be.) I wish the designer of this toy would have made the balls a little larger!!!"
113911,1,SeductresS,"Although GABO is my favorite author ... But this is his worst book ever ... Go for 100 years of solitude, love in the time of cholera, in evil hour or any of his great novels ... But not this one"
113981,1,Not Modern China,"China after the Olympics has many architectural sites and new icons....none were in my book because it is a 2005 edition, which I supposed was 2010."
114009,1,No redeeming value found here.,"I found this book to be of no redeeming literary value what-so-ever. No plot existed, the characters were lifeless. Also the literary style does not lend itself to a full length novel, only at best a short story. This book stirred no feelings of interest anywhere in me."
114025,1,Where's the Beef?,"When I ordered this book, I was anxious to receive it. Listed with 300 pages, I expected in-depth information. Though Denis Gilles photographs are indeed superb, and although almost every topic on nature photography is discussed, it was very disappointing that only a page or two was given for each topic. Overview yes, in-depth information no. If you want to learn from a master, invest in a book by John Shaw."
114033,1,Underwater Blair Witch Project,"My husband and I love to snorkel and really wanted to like this - it is a decent ""home movie,"" and is about that interesting. There are some beautiful shots of beaches, a ""Waikiki Sunset,"" but overall, it was boring and a bit overpriced at $1.99. A book would be a better investment I'm sorry to say."
114068,1,Cheap Stuff,"The handles are nice, the best thing about these very cheap screwdrivers. The 'oxide tip' is a some kind of painted on coating that scratches off very easily. Don't be fooled by the appearance of a real professional screwdriver. These aint it."
114085,1,Hard to keep moist,"The wipers work great. No complaint. However, you only need one or two at a time and the other 98 or 99 will dry out and become useless unless you take some care. I used these at work and unfortunately did not have a zip lock bag handy. By the time I got home that evening the others were just tissues. Before you open the package, have your zip lock bag ready and maybe even put a damp paper towel in the bag with this package to keep the sheet moist."
114090,1,Worst experience ever on amazon.,"Ordered on 8/14/2011 and was promised it would be here by 9/01/2011. This was to be birthday gift. Received a message from amazon on 8/31 that the product has not been sent. Called to find out whats going on, the lady that I spoke with said I would not receive it by the birthday and as a matter of fact it was not gonna be sent until 7 days after the birthday. That means it took them 25 days to send the product "" not receive "" send. I ask the "" lady "" if there is anyone that I could speak with to speed this up, and she said ( what makes you think that you are anymore important than the 1000's that are also waiting for their stuff ). PLEASE DO NOT USE SPORTSMAN GUILD. The product may be great, I wouldn't know , haven't got it yet."
114200,1,Waste of money,"I saw this on Dr. Oz and figured I'd try it. Who doesn't have stress in their lives ? So there is an eyedropper in bottle. You use 4 drops and you are supposed to feel magically better. I can't believe I fell for this. It tasted like Whiskey. It is a dropperful of alcohol. That's it. If I am going to have a whiskey to calm me, I'd rather have a Jameson on the rocks. (jk)"
114238,1,The Big Picture Vol 1 : The Korean War,"Good quality of picture but too much propaganda on English commentary for the US Army. If you are in Army, you might like it."
114353,1,B.O.R.I.N.G.,"PLIAN AND SIMPLE: THIS IS THE WORST MOB MOVIE EVER! DAVID BOWIE IS A GOOD ACTOR BUT HE LOOKS LIKE ""DUH""! HERE. GOLDIE WAS GREAT IN THE LAST 007 MOVIE ""THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH"" PLAYING A HENCHMAN. HERE IN ""B.U.S.T.E.D."" HE'S JUST FLAT! AFTER SEEING THIS TRASH, I WENT TO PLAYING GOLDIE'S CDS (GET HIS CLASSIC DRUM N'BASS DEBUT ""TIMELESS""-THAT'S WORTH 5 STARS). ""PULP FICTION"" OR ""SONATINE"" THIS AIN'T!"
114364,1,Worked For A While,"I had this filter for about 3 weeks, during which it worked well. There were a few times where water leaked from the connections, but it'd be a few small drops and then it'd stop. Then one morning I turned the faucet on full pressure and the entire system (even the adapter) popped off the faucet, spraying water everywhere. It's now impossible to reattach; every time I screw it back on, all of the water leaks/sprays out of the top and nothing even makes it through the filter. I can only guess that the threads are completely ruined, making it a hopeless endeavor to try to fix."
114406,1,Without a doubt debatable origin of Fact or Fiction,To the laymen who is gullible to those who would say it is wrong but would provide no right but only another question. But for those who would only seek the truth about their want of knowledge as to those who really don't know. Those hmmmmm keep looking for that needle in the hay.
114408,1,ONLY FOR CHESS GAME LOVERS!,"THIS MOVIE WAS VERY BORING!IF YOU LIKE TO PLAY CHESS-YOU'LL LIKE THIS MOVIE.THIS IS A MYSTERY BASED ON BEING SOLVED BY FINDING CHESS PEICES,AND THEIR CLUES."
114422,1,Popsicle sticks.,"I read in the program notes that this is the only CD set of the complete Vivaldi Bassoon Concertos. Too bad. I am happy that I bought this box set at a closeout sale and did not pay full price.What an ugly tone. It sounds like he made his bassoon reed out of popsicle sticks. Yech!!!I am an amateur bassoonist, I play on synthetic reeds, and I swear that I can get a better sound out of the instrument than Mr. Smith does.1/19/2007: I am modifying my comments slightly because the performances with the English Chamber Orchestra (ECO) do not sound as bad as the performances with the Zagreb Soloist. I can listen to the performances with the ECO without the desire to poke a pencil in my eardrums. Still one star."
114447,1,What happens when CRAPPY writers get book deals?,"This book. It is to literature what Star is to magazines - just a general peek into the upper crust. It is full of FLAT characters, including the protagonist. All rich women are this way! All rich women's husbands are that way! All innocent nannies are innocent nannies that really care for kids!Not good at all, and baaaaadly written."
114553,1,Don't waste your money!!,"We have a lot of flies in our home due to a dog door, 3 dogs going in & out all day, door to the deck opening & closing. A real fly problem. We purchased this hoping it would at least help with the problem. We hung it up near the back door, in the family room, in the hall, office, etc. We left it plugged in each location for several days. The final result, it did not even capture 1 fly, not a single one! Don't waste your money. It should get zero stars!"
114583,1,Huge disappointment!,"I have been an avid Patricia Cornwell fan since the beginning of the Scarpetta series. I was thrilled to see this book on the shelves after taking some time off from reading to improve my Sudoku skills. However, after the first chapter of the book, I had to run to the computer to do some research - did I miss a book in the series?? When I finally figured out I had not, I continued on with increasing disappointment. It was such a chore to finish this book!I have a friend who just finished her master's degree and started reading for pleasure. She is really enjoying the Cornwell books. I will be sure to warn her of the impending doom! In one word - YUCK!"
114693,1,WTF?????????????????????,Glad I RENTED this steaming pile! How can a studio make money on this tripe????????????
114734,1,Be very careful,"I was not careful. I saw that this had fine customer reviews, read a couple and ordered them. It was only after they came that I found out that they were useless unless I ordered a $29 item. Then when I read up on the $29 item I found that it would not be suitable for my use. OK--I will return this but I wish that the ad would be very clear so other careless people like me do not go through this routine."
114776,1,Seduced By Boredom,"I really do not see the fuss about this book. I can not believe the undeserved 5 ratings posted against it. First of all, if you want a regency romance in its truest form, then please be warned.I felt like the author should not have bothered with the 'supposed' regency setting. She could have changed a few atticles of the time ('clothes','carriage to car' etc) and passed it off as a relatively modern setting.The language. I felt like I was reading a modern novel NOT a period novel.The plot must be given some credit (grudgingly).Some of the dialogue was amusing albeit out of place for that period.One reader says, the mystery was hard to figure out, well thats wrong.I have read A LOT of historical romances' and this does not even earn a place amongst the worst i have read.True hitorical romance readers, be warned, if you want something forgettable and something in place of a sleeping pill, then please by all means, borrow this from a local library but do not buy it."
114840,1,Worst Purchase ever!,Take it as a warning and don't buy this product. Worked the first time we plugged it in an transferred 30 gb worth of photos and videos of my baby and family. Thank god we decided to check them on the drive before deleting them from our laptop and guess what?? We could not access the drive after that. It kept on coming with an error message and couldn't be opened....so it was dead in just one day.Just wasn't worth for even a cent. It was a piece of trash!!
114918,1,Depressing,"The book is just ""okay"". The characters didn't feel real to me. It was hard to imagine the story line and some of the secondary characters might have made the book better except the stars of the book rode around the countryside the entire time."
114957,1,Horrible History,"Other than the fact that Marcus Brutus was a generation younger, rumored to be Caesar's son and came from a family of wealth and mobility, him being Caesar's boyhood friend made absolutely no sense whatsoever. I was going to suggest that my 15 year old read this as an historical novel but forget it. Even children's books on this subject matter reveal these gross errors in history. Where will Caesar's nephew Octavius come from when Caesar has no sibling? Another stupid error."
114959,1,butchered history,"It's a shame how grossly inaccurate this novel is. I realize historical fiction bends the truth, but this was just plain horrible. Even worse, people will read this and think that it's true because they don't know any better."
115013,1,Who gets this stuff?,"I have read a good part of these glowing reviews and I must just be stupid or something. I really love hearing different opinions and alway hope that I will be enlightened by hearing a new view. I have listened to one of Deepak's books on CD before and was confused. I listened to this one and had to rewind and listen to ideas up to four times. I really love Deepak's voice... I love that Indian accent.... But the ideas seem to be idiotic. He makes assertions without any basis and then starts on a lot of junk science to support some of his notions. I guess that all of you DP readers are used to this Newage stuff, but it makes no sense to me. I will not waste any more money on Deepak's work. This book will probably work for you ""feel good"" believers, but if you have an ounce of logic, please look elsewhere."
115051,1,Unbelievable,"""For reasons I cannot understand, I am often asked if I still think we should invade thier countries, kill their leaders, and convert them to Christianity. The answer is: Now more than ever!"".That is why Ann cannot be taken seriously.Why does she have trouble understanding why she is asked if she still believes in that statement? That is what I don't understand.Allow me to offer a reason. Because it violates the First Amendment. However, it is my personal opinion that Ann doesn't really like the First Amendment as written. I think Ann would have worded it differently. I think this would meet Ann's criterea.Congress shall insure that all laws concerning religion will conform to the Christian ideology. Furthermore, Congress shall make laws that prohibit any dissenting veiwpoint concerning the Christian religion. Moreover, Congress shall be the only members of society that determine how Christianity will be defined. Amen."
115056,1,"Coulter is obviously one unhappy, miserable woman...","How she can demonize an entire group of people who have done nothing more wrong than think differently than she does, about certain issues, I don't know. I do know that this kind of behavior is what causes slavery, discrimination, and violence towards people who are different from each other. I really thought America had come farther than that."
115060,1,This title itself is misleading...,"...since it indicates Miss Coulter is instructing the reader in a dialogue. Well, no. It's more like a guide to polishing a well-worn monologue of bullet points, telling the reader what to think about former Presidents (including dead ones), triple-amputee Senators, and columnists who happen not to agree with her. (A chapter entitled ""Moby's Dick"" -- extremely classy). I picked up this book in hopes of reading what Ann says about me -- and instead found her loud disdain for liberals a comforting drone I could tune out after a while, and obviously written for pay. Doubly classy. Miss Coulter certainly fits the bill of ""a roving lawyer with a commission,"" in Ambrose Bierce's Devil's Dictionary term of another word beginning with the letter ""L."" As the saying goes, you could look it up."
115090,1,Basics Not Provided,"If you are a beginner as I am at Adobe Photoshop, then this is NOT the book for you. It is a more advanced text of Adobe, even though the contents of the book are very well done."
115211,1,The Lemon Album,"Ouch, that might sound harsh, but I've been getting into the Robert Plant albums of late. He was exploring new areas, getting new sounds. I love Led Zep, but I really think Plant is weiged down by Page, trying to swim with the proverbial anchor."
115240,1,Here it is--- Route 66.,This is not what I expected it to be. It is described as a 'Map' but it is an artists impression map of the various stages of Route66 from Chicago to Los Angeles. I suppose it would suffice to give information on the various scenic points of interest whilst travelling through the various states en-route to Los Angeles. I specifically wanted this in conjunction with a planned motorcycle tour but this could not be used effectively on a bike. Just my opinion.
115311,1,So you love Gettysburg? That doesn't mean you'll love Gods and Generals.,"I really like the film Gettysburg. I can't stand Gods and Generals. In my opinion, it's flat out boring, overly romanticized, and doesn't tell one clear story. Sure, Gettysburg has a little flare for the romantic in its own way but for some reason it works. I think it's balanced better. Gods and Generals just gets carried away. There is some striking photography now and then but not enough to carry the film on its own. It also suffers from a few distressingly bad digital effects. Gettysburg was produced early enough to avoid this. I love American civil war history but still had a very hard time sitting through this entire film. Frankly, I feel that Ken Burns' civil war doc is more engaging. Still, there are those who enjoy Gods and Generals. I do not."
115326,1,"EC has done better stuff, to be honest...","Eric Clapton is, and has been, a staple on my music rack for many years. I've enjoyed the various phases that his music has gone through, until now. There is no doubt -- ""Pilgrim"" is filled with great guitar work (EC fans expect no less). Unfortunately, EVERY track is filled with a drum machine beat, making each song sound similar to the previous one. The first time I listened to the album, it was as though there were only 2-3 songs, repeated endlessly.Just before ""Pilgrim"" was made, EC did an album (of electronica, I think) in another joint venture with Simon Climie. I think a lot of that carried over onto ""Pilgrim,"" and it's a shame.All in all, you really don't need this album unless you're a ""completist"" and simply must own every EC recording."
115486,1,"weak story, disappointing art","I am a big fan of both azzarello and lee, but this book disappoints. The story is a weak story that tries to be profound and significant. At the end, it offers nothing new to the Superman mythos and in time, it will not stand out at all as one of the better stories. Lee's art is good, but very average here. Nothing jumps out at the reader, but just simple poses and misleading snapshots. Lots of sound and fury, signifying nothing.Also, this is definitely the comic industry's tactic to sell lots and lots of issues. The story could have been easily told in 6 or eight issues, but ended up being 12 issues."
115536,1,Total ...,"I like movies a lot and I'll sit through almost anything. Thus, ""Scary Movie"" achieved something very rare when it got disgusting enough to make me turn it off and put the DVD back into the rental box. If you are looking for a totally tasteless flick, this is for you. As a comedy, it has a rare funny moment (in the first hour I saw), but you can find far better ways to spend your time. On the positive side, I see it has a sequel out. Most sequels are inferior to the original, but I don't think that can happen in this case."
115566,1,One of the worst movies ever,"The leaguye of extraordinary men may like a fantastic super-powered action punched film...but dont let the trailer fool ya.The L.E.G is a movie that requires alot of attention and u feel like your in a classroom learning. Yes the trailer showed cool scenes... But when you watch the movies all those cool scenes go by extrememly fast every single action (no exageration) zooms by so fast you don't know what happens. The story plot is good but once again there are too many things to follow and you get confused and start asking questions like...""wait what happened?, who's that?, what is he doing?"" This is not a good film at all it is not worth renting or buying. Please don't waste your money! For this I give one star."
115621,1,buyers beware of the e18 error message,"ok i have just gotten the dreaded error message of the e18, which doesnt allow the lens to come out due to either dust or the gears, this seems to be a common factor for ALL canon retractible lenses. canon wont stand by their product after the warrantee and will cost you between 150 and 200 dollars to repair, and it probably will happen again. if you want do a web search for canon e18 error messages and see what others have said. stick with a sony or a nikon."
115634,1,Tripe. Don't bother.,"I agree with the reader from Oregon who said, ""Don't think...,"" because if you do think, you're doomed to boredom and/or disappointment. And no, not because the book is slow and quiet, but because it's vapid, shallow, and slight. This book is a commercial phenomenon based around a central, simple revelation--that there are a lot of middle-aged women out there who cherish the memory of a lost romance. And I wish to heck I had thought of it. That doesn't make it a good book. It's the worst sort of tripe, and poorly written, too. Its author joins Vanna White among the luckiest people on earth. I'm jealous of him (he made 27 million dollars on this vaporous little composition exercise--aren't you jealous too?), but if you haven't read this book yet, do yourself a favor and don't add your dollar to his coffers."
115649,1,Don't do it!,"I am buying a second LaCie drive in an attempt to rescue documents that I thought would be safe on my original drive that has crashed after about 1.5 years. $160 for the second drive (which I intend to swap parts with in an effort to resurrect my data) is a much cheaper solution than spending two to ten times that amount to have my data professionaly rescued. (A service LaCie doesn't offer!) Please... read the forums before you buy this drive! Had I done so, I would not have come near this drive with a stick!"
115807,1,Pick a different printer,"Have now worked with two Kodak printer docs, wanting to be able to just drop my Kodak camera on top to connect to PC or print directly. And now two printer docs have soon stopped picking up paper. Sometimes I can manually feed a sheet around the cartridge, but how convenient is that? You can read other with the same experiences, and worse. Pick another printer besides the Kodak."
115826,1,"Translation not true to the original, used the least popular","The translators used the least popular copy for their translation(There are several different versions of this book, this being the least popular because of the poor quality of the last 50 chapters). Not only is the version a poor one, but the translations are poor as well. Compared with Sydney Shapiro's translation(The Outlaws of the Marsh), you will find that this is more like the work of a student. To rate the three different translations, I give Sydney's 100, 50 for Pearl Bucke's and 15 for this one."
115847,1,An uneasy read.,"For anyone who is familiar with Frank Schaeffer's background, and that of his parents, Francis and Edith Schaeffer, this book and its predecessor, Portofino, can make for very uneasy reading. Although they can be humorous at points and literarily compelling, one cannot help but feel a bit dirty, imagining Frank's mother reading what her son really thinks of her and her late husband. A previous reviewer mentioned the deadining effect of Calvinism. I wonder what can be said of the effect of Eastern Orthodoxy upon a person who feels driven to publish something like this about his own family."
115893,1,Dreadful experience.,"These arrived and, when I opened one, I found that it was crushed and the chocolate was discolored (white and darker brown in various places). I opened a second one to see if the first was an isolated case -- the second one wasn't crushed, but it, too, was discolored in two places. The taste was very bad, as well. Will not order candy via Amazon again. Very disappointed"
115939,1,Poorly organized and structured presentation of all the data and history of the Barnes.,The story did not flow well.I did not like the way it came across.The Barnes story is a fascinating one. I would like to have seen fewer interviews and more concise story telling.
115942,1,Junk,"Way to go Crucial, build modules way past the capabilities of the silicon so you can put fast numbers on the box. What's that? It fails after a short period of use? Ship it anyway!Oh, and when they call to ask for a refund, give them credit towards their choice of some other useless piece of Crucial junk instead! Yay!!!"
116026,1,Beware - clips are extremely fragile and are prone to shatter during shipping.,"I was more than a little disappointed when I opened the case and discovered that half of the clips were reduced to small plastic shards. Amazon was more than cooperative in resolving the issue; however, do not order this product expecting it to be pristine and intact. Trimmer itself is fabulous; clips are shoddy."
116046,1,40% Polyester,"I needed a cool, 100%-cotton T-shirt to wear while working out. That's how Amazon described this product: 100% cotton. But what I received is 40% polyester---much too warm for workouts.Be careful when shopping from Amazon's Hanes T-shirt page. It's convenient because it presents T-shirts in a wide range of colors, in various fabrics, and from various vendors. But this multiplicity of options increases the risk of ending up a product different from the one you selected online._ _ _ _ _In looking over earlier reviews, I see that other customers have had the same problem. Perhaps Amazon and its vendors think customers don't really care whether a T-shirt is 100% cotton or 40% polyester. If you care, beware!"

116130,1,"Good for older women, not for younger women","The Method: T'Ai ChiClaire Hooton is a beautiful older woman and the host. While she seems to ""know her stuff"" I found the instruction unpleasing. I think it would be great for older adults looking to learn T'ai Chi at home but not for younger people. It's geared toward older women.It's also an older video. While it has 2002, 2008 as the copyright dates, it looks like it was filmed in the mid 90's. If you would prefer something more recent and geared toward younger people, don't get this DVD. However, if you are an older woman, this may be perfect for you!"
116136,1,Tristemente corto.,"Me quedé con ganas de más, el libro es interesante pero sumamente corto para un autor del calibre de García Marquez."
116184,1,Do Not Buy,Incredibly poor video quality...don't be fooled by the fact that this is distributed on bluray. The quality looks like someone basically captured VHS tape as it was playing in some cases.
116304,1,It came broken,"When I received the Surround play yard, two panels were broken( the knobs at the bottom that connect two panels together were snapped off and in the bottom of the box). I did not return the item because the next day I had a 15 year old beagle returning home from major neck surgery and needed it immediately. I've been using it as a pen with four panels but I definitely didn't get what I payed for."
116325,1,Irresponsible Garbage,"A manure spreader with a microphone and a typewriter, pretendingto participate in political discussion.It is long past time that we stuffed this ""crazy old aunt"" wing of our nation's character back in the attic. Letting these people out was irresponsible in the first place. Precisely the kind of fun that rich kids with no sense of responsibility or consequences have always enjoyed most, regardless of the damage done and suffering imposed on others.These are the same kind of people who led the South into startingthe American Civil War. Children of wealth - and their imitators - with an over-developed sense of entitlement and nobility pissing on the rest of us."
116427,1,Didn't match photo of item,"The ornament stands that shipped did NOT match the photograph. They have white plastic tips which are NOT attractive. In fact, there is a photo for another item on Amazon.com that matches what was shipped, but doesn't match this item. Beware."
116522,1,A Waste of Time,"This has to be one of the hardest books to read and remain interested in. None of the characters are likeable, there is no humor in the people or the situations. The descriptions are so lengthy that by the time you get to the end of the pages you can't follow what was being described. If this had not been a selection of my book club I would never have finished the book. It is difficult to understand how this book was selected as a National Book Club Winner. Apparently it's literary meaning has escaped this reader."
116530,1,Am I missing stomething?,"The characters are not likable, the story is boring, the writing, repititious--and he wins the national book prize! I could only read half of it, then skipped to the end. One reviewer wrote the mother somehow ""developed"". From what I read all characters were stuck and obnoxious and narcissistic. No thanks. Wouldn't want to spend time with any of these people or the book."
116545,1,Wake me up when it's over.,"I was drawn in by the first chapter. Loved the writing. After that, the minutia and the repetition became painful. This would have been a much better book at about 1/2 the existing page count. It reminds me a lot of slower Dickens novels. (Throughout his career, was paid by the word. They haven't started doing that again, have they?)Franzen is a good writer, but if, in my opinion, he wants to appeal to a broader audience, he needs to tighten up his prose."
116562,1,Not at all inspiring,"Why my bookclub loved this book and author is beyond me... I had to work to get through it. Can't even say it was disturbing, because it couldn't capture my interest at all."
116590,1,Confused over order!,"I looked through the catalog for Liberty Orchards a long time. I was looking for the apple candies. I had tasted my first that day. I thought I was ordering a tin as pictured with four different flavored bites, but when I got my order for $23 or more, it was a tiny 10 oz. bag. Why in the world would you not picture the bag of candies for this item, instead of the whole tin. I had studied the book for a long time, and thought I was getting a good deal. No good deal there, and I am disappointed. I am the idiot. I'm buying my stuff in the stores from now on."
116626,1,unacceptable,supporting legs are much shorter than wheels. Doesn't hold balance even when it is empty. impossible to use. would not recommend
116640,1,Disappointing,"I found this to be one of Ms. Drake's most tedious paranormals. It took ages to get the plot moving. We were constantly told of the fog and dreams and how evil the hero was and on and on it went. When the ending came, and it came quickly, it was a relief. It seemed that Ms. Drake realized she was out of space and quickly brought the story to a conclusion. The ending was totally unworthy of the investment of time you put in. I wouldn't recommend this book. It really isn't consistent with her other paranormals."
116651,1,Worst Tent Ever Owned,"This was our third tent owned. We loved the roominess (able to fit king size air mattress, two children's cots and two full size dog beds, plus a camping potty) and the ability to put up awning.I'll start with the awning. Very easy to install, but unsteady during winds. The first rain shower this tent took in 90 gallons of water. Thankfully, we were camping on our own property! Took hours using our 10 gallon wet-dry vac to get out the water. We put the tent in our barn to dry out the rest of the way, and since we didn't stake it down the poor thing fell over putting a good size gash in it's rainfly. No tears shed, but it will be missed.Purchased a smaller Coleman Instant tent & absolutely love it!!!! In one fall weekend camped at two cub scout family campouts and able to put this tent up with my 10 y/o son and I. Haven't experienced rain with this one yet."
116663,1,Trash,"Honestly, this book was total trash. Poorly written, amateurish and disturbing on too many levels to name. It's definitely light reading (if any) so if you're bored on the beach, this might be your kind of thing. I found it a little embarrasing."
116665,1,This book should be renamed,"The title of this book is very misleading as has very little marketing content.But the book would be a perfect read for anyone thinking of starting up a small business as it covers a lot of basics fundamentals.For marketing insperation, this book does not cut it."
116757,1,Not worth the money,"I have a dime size dent on my car's door (flat panel). Tried multiple times and it didn't do anything.On top of that, seller expects me to pay for shipping for return.Stay away!!"

116926,1,Not Digging It. At All.,"Well I'm one of those over thirty dudes who thinks this album is not up to NUFAN standards.Gone are subjects like domestic abuse, AIDS, war, and other issues that allow me to tolerate ""love"" songs. This is just about all love songs, and reeks of an attempt to lure fans of bands like A Simple Plan, i.e. bands that longtime fans of NUFAN tend to despise. It's almost as if they went out of their way to lose me as a fan.I've said it before and I'll say it again, bands are allowed to do what they want, write what they want, play what they want, but I don't have to like it.There's just no bite to this. To be fair, it doesn't stray too far from the NUFAN sound musically (it's watered down, but you can tell it's them), but lyrically and subject-wise, this could have been written by 15 year olds."
116936,1,Starts good then gets annoying,I don't understand the hype. The movie is average and its special effects are very annoying. I actually went out of the movies after an hour.
116981,1,Don't buy this,"Well, I thought one black man would be able to understand black women - but I was wrong. The author even wrote to white women and said that they could be a social conscience for the white race which they can not."
117018,1,Not even close to what you paid for,"anything that kind of works, doesn't work. This Belkin Tunecast kind of works.The unit has to be in the right proximity to the antenna of the radio from which you want to hear it. Even then, it doesn't even approximate what you get with either a cassette adapter or a stereo cord to the line in jack of your home or car audio system. Something that kind of works is a poor value.Battery life is irrelevant in a device which fails to transmit a signal as good as even a weak FM station. It would have been much easier to sucker consumers into buying this ounce of trash by adding an iPod charger. Thank goodness for consumers who pay attention to reviews before buying such rubbish."
117019,1,Frustrating,"I do admire the graphics in this game, however, I found the gameplay to be awkward and frustrating. First of all, the units under command are difficult to control and also at times even difficult to find. The line of sight and viewpoint of the player is also hard to control and adjust. There is a command map which is suppposed to give you perspective of the entire battlefield but because of its small size it is difficult to get bearings and locations of the units. The conditions for victory in battles are not well defined. I think the developers put too much complexity into the game whereas simplicity would have made it more enjoyable."
117032,1,Very poor job,"I have read a few other of Follett's works, and have generally been satisfied with his writing. This book, however, is a major exception. The characters had no depth, the story was completely convoluted, and the writing was cliched. Further, as a psychology researcher, I was outraged at Mr. Follett's description of the research process in the book, as there is absolutely no way that a psychology researcher would ever be allowed to engage in the protocols that he created for this work. Please, do yourself a favor, and don't waste your time with this book."
117048,1,Definately a children's book,"Be aware that this is very much a childrens book and as such, may even be a good one. I expected a more mature read like some others written by Treece, however."

117106,1,It will break. Sony will not honor warranty.,"This fragile little camera is not built to last.After 9 months of light use, the plastic latches on the interior of the battery compartment door broke. Sony refused to honor warranty and wanted $175 to fix it. This problem is so common that ebay has auctions for kits to fix the problem at about $40, but the repair is fairly complex to do at home.The camera is not robust enough even for moderate use. Sony customer service is a joke.If you must buy one, unbroken DSC-W1's commonly sell on ebay for about $30."
117215,1,"This book was OK, but it was too short!","This book was pretty good. The topic of it was prettyinteresting. But the story was way too short. I think HansPeter Richter should have made this book longer. And there wasreally no conclusion to this book. All the ending was about wasFriedrich surviving the shelling and he leaving his best friend'sfamily. I thought there should of been a better ending thanthis one.

117224,1,Just don't understand it,"Being in a non-English speaking country and refusing to install the native Windows OS, I have always been frustrated receiving and catologing contacts in foreign characters and alphabets in Outlook 2000. It seems that Netscape 6 mail program does fine handling foreign fonts in contact name and email subject headings. Believing the promise of Outlook 2002 catering to multi-national firms, I went ahead and upgraded to the whole Office XP package. Handling foreign character is actually worse in Outlook 2002. Sure you can read and write foreign characters fine, but the annoying gibberish characters in the from: and subject: fields when written in non-Roman alphabet. I just don't understand why they can't have a simple encoding recognition feature in the fields of contacts and email message fields show how inflexible and seattle-centric Microsoft is. And, since I have a pocketPC, I am stuck with this less than ideal software. Thanks Bill."
117292,1,Don't let a murderer profit from sales of this book!,"Don King takes the most breathtaking pictures! Too bad his murderer of an ex-wife co-wrote this book with him, it just ruins the entire project. I hope everyone sees what insatiable greed does to to already warped minds!

117308,1,sorry business practices,I went to three different places and they always sent me the wrong mother board. It also took forever to reimburse me every time. Basically the sweet p4s800de cannot be bought anywhere.
117369,1,"Unimaginative, cliched and boring","The writing is labored and much of it seems like it is written by a below average student in a BA-level creative writing class. Merullo just can't write a scene in a natural and logical manner; he has to add hoary cliches like a disaster on the first date and having the protagonist punch the Governor of Massachusetts the first time he meets him. This seems like a novel of a macho male fantasy that doesn't have the least idea of what an intimate relationship is like between a man and a woman. I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone because I believe that fiction writers have a responsibility to make their work believable and make art out of the ordinary, or what is considered ordinary. Merullo fails miserably on both counts."
117376,1,Where has Spalding Gray gone?,"Domesticity may make him happy, but it sure doesn't do much for his monologuing. This, alone among all his monologues, is flat, rather boring. There's something to be said for transgression, at least as a topic for art."
117457,1,Get an atlas,"I can't believe Garmin sells this product in good conscience. It was horrible. It didn't even know we were on the road half of the time. It doesn't know anything about the toll roads, couldn't find addresses, didn't know what exits to take, etc. Essentially we were lost all the time. We had a Mexico map hoping the Garmin would fill in the gaps. But what you really need is a good detailed atlas of the country because the Garmin is not worth the cost. It probably hasn't been updated in years and never should have been sold so incomplete anyway. I know roads change all the time but this map didn't know anything. Even in major cities. It couldn't tell me how to get from Mexico City to Cuernavaca, two of the biggest cities in Mexico with pretty established road systems. We used a Garmin map in Ireland and it knew what exits to take, how to find addresses, even which lane to be in. This map did none of that. DO NOT BUY THIS!"

The product that I recently purchased: Rubbermaid 1182MABISQU Basic Drain Boards is NOT RUBBERAMID, the ""new"", product is, much thinner, made of harder plastic and quite flimsy and inferior to what Rubbermaid used to produce; I know the aforementioned to be true because recently I found Rubbermaid Drain Board that was purchased around 1993, it is RUBBERMAID. Could someone direct us as to how we could contact Rubbermaid? I contacted Rubbermaid in the past but did not receive a response. The marketing people at Rubbermaid are missing a whole marketing niche of people who need a large Drain Board that drains water from the short side."

Unfortunate for now I'll never buy anything else by her."
117557,1,You Got Played,"I may be the only person who thought this book was awful, the actual novel was 68 pages, the rest of the book was how to be a big freak. The only thing that will probably make this sell are the photos. The story was weak. The chics were simple and got used instead of using the baller. The idea of revenge was to satisfy the man and try to embarass them by asking for more sex."

117592,1,Boring,"Overall the book was boring. Once again, as is becoming the case with many Kennedy inspired books, the information contained is not shocking or even new to reader, despite what the author promises. This "" missing history"" can be found in many other books written about this self-destructive family. Indeed I read not one thing that captured my attention as having never been mentioned before. Not only that, but the book seemed to contain more information about Jack than about Jackie. Perhaps the title should have been Jack Kennedy: The Missing History of the Kennedy Years."
117617,1,Helped me sleep,"I have to admit that I did not get very far in this book before realizing that I had 42 other books on my shelf to read and I had no obligation to finish this rather uninteresting journal. So, my review is only to let you know, as an avid reader, that I put this down after about 50 pages. I finally realized that I just didn't care about the author or her travels. She seemed contradictory at times and confused others. To me, this seemed to bewritten as a personal read for the author herself."
117645,1,Cable,"This was not the cable I wanted, I will keep it anyway. The cable I wanted is a VGA cable so that I could watched things like Netflix from my iPhone to my tv"
117688,1,Two of these delivered dead...,"Beautiful watch. It's a pity that the first one I received (as a Christmas present for my wife) was dead on arrival. Amazon worked hard to correct the issue even going to great lengths to overnight a replacement to me in another town where we were spending the holidays (still didn't arrive before Christmas but...). However, the replacement watch was also dead. So there were two of these $1000+ watches delivered DOA. Not good..."
117739,1,Awful,"I don't understand why people seem to be amused or enlightened by any of Michael Moore's films. Did you guys know this guy is a College Dropout? He's probably got less of an Education than I do, and I'm a Senior in College. He also bashes our President Bush, who is a graduate from Yale, and has also recieved his MBA at Harvard school of Business. Before any of you judge Bush, make sure you understand Bush supports the Israel and the Jews and opposes the Terrorists that want to Destroy the Jews.....because not many people know about the danger of Anti-Semitism...especially Michael Moore."
117741,1,it wouldn't work!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The second hand WOULD NOT go all the way around the clock.,This is a piece of crap!!. I needed a replacement clock for my office space and this looked like what I wanted to go in the space. It arrived.. I put in BRAND new batteries and it WOULD NOT WORK!!!!! The second hand would go HALF way around the clock and then STOP! i wanted to return for a FULL refund..but there was no information in the package for returning! So I am stuck with the clock that DOES NOT work and I still have no clock in my office space.
117789,1,Silent Phantom of The Opera,This particular movie wasn't what I thought it would be. I have several other movies but this one was silent and in black and white. It was for my granddaughter who is a big fan but is visually impaired and couldn't see this one at all. I would not have ordered it had I known this first. It would be a good collection for someone with no visual problems though.
117791,1,What they didn't tell me,"I ordered this headset because a colleague uses one. It arrived and guess what? You cannot just plug it into the phone. I have a headset ready phone and evidently need some sort of polaris cable to plug into the phone. Now I have to order this cable, pay another shipping cost and wait to be able to use the headset."
117795,1,Misled and disappointed - this was not an enjoyable read,"From the synopsis and the style of cover art (very foolish of me I know), I had expected a romantic comedy. This was *definitely* not the book I received.Almost all the characters (as pointed out by an earlier reviewer) were not in the least endearing and any appeal that the lead female character had was a mystery to me: self sacrificing to the point of stupidity (I smell a burning martyr); absolutely no common sense although she was portrayed as being a wonderful mother; lost in her own little world with no grasp of reality ... The male lead was marginally better but he is portrayed as falling in love with her while she lurches uselessly from one problem to another. You cannot help but ask yourself, why? how?The writing was good, but the endless suffering of the characters made reading this book a chore rather than a pleasure."
117818,1,i was not impressed,"The ""burnt onion"" taste in these breadsticks is too overbearing, but doesn't add any positive spicy notes."
117837,1,PowerDirector 5,"I have read several forums and reviews on Powerdirector 5. In short I have to agree with what has been said, Save your money. The program crashes all the time no matter what you are doing. The features are ok but not worth $80.00. The computer system I am using far exceeds what Cyberlink recommends to run this program. It took me four hours to make a five minute slide show due to the constant crashing. I am sorry I did not continue to look further at other programs. I'll shelf it and just put it with other junk I have bought over time.The disk will make an interseting glass coaster."
117935,1,Read the fine print--BEWARE,"I actually ordered these from weathertech directly. Put in my vehicle (Hyundai Sante Fe) and all, and was lead to believe that these were going to fit. When received, I tried to install them. They really did not fit well at all. I called weathertech and was told that they are NOT made to be vehicle specific, but are the best fit they have available for my vehicle, and that if I read the info about them it says that. They are correct (technically) that in the expanded information, way down there, they do state that these are not exact fit.... For that price I expected way more and returned them. (Bought some for $20 that I had to cut to fit). This is not an Amazon problem but a Weathertech issue. I tried to post on their website and was blocked from doing so."
117957,1,They charged me and did'nt delivered two only one..............,I was charged in my wife's credit card for two exactly like i ordered ....However they delivered only one and it was said by amazon that i was going to be refunded for the other and so far nothing happened...I will have to pat the whole amount in the credit card and saty with one collar instead of two...Ok that's no problem i will sue amazon for this ..and never buy from you again ..Irresponsible company ...don't care for it's costumers...
117960,1,Poor move...no value,"no value...only people showing their asses and bodies. I do not know what's the category of such a movie...but I know it is Not funny. See actors in the movie, u feel like u r watching ur 10 years old kid on the school stage. music is poor so is filming."
118003,1,Zero Stars!,"I purchased this electric knife for the sole purpose of slicing loaves of homemade bread; nothing too demanding. After having it less than 3 weeks, and about 6 loaves of bread later, it just all together quit working in the middle of cutting a loaf. What junk!"
118069,1,Er...,What is this? Some kind of compilation of unreleased Marilyn Manson songs? Because that's all it sounds like. Just some spooky kids trying to sound like Marilyn Manson. Bleeh.
118160,1,Useless,"This book is terrible. It assumes that only the male/female partner relationship can be abusive. It doesn't talk about family abuse, abuse between parents, siblings etc. Barely covers the surface and offers no real help or advice. Do not waste your money there are better books out there."
118179,1,VIDEOGAME?????,"I have played Xenogears for exactly 2 hours and 30 minutes now, and I have fought a wopping 5 random battles that arent worth my time and have had about 10 minutes actually playing the game. The other 2 hours and some odd minutes are freaking cut scenes that arent even good enough to get my attention. The game is not bad though, but DEFINITELY NOT A FINAL FANTASTY OR HIGH LEVEL RPG. Its just a plain run of the mill rpg, so dont expect anything."
118309,1,COPY AND PASTE THIS REVIEW TO ALL DANZIG ALBUM REVIEWS,"Glen Danzig USED to be somebody. He used to be a Misfit, but what the hell is he doing now? I mean...the fact that there is less than twenty reviews for this album (at this point) should speak for itself. NO ONE IS LISTENING TO THIS SH*T MUSIC! From what I've seen over the years the band Danzig appeals mostly to hicks! It's pure REDNECK METAL! What a laugable excuse for music!I would much rather listen to the ""New Misfits"" than to ANYTHING Glen Danzig produces! Horrible, slow paced, uninspired, bland, and just plain moronic music! Listen to Glen Danzig in his prime, buy the Misfits coffin box set instead."
118312,1,Don't buy these,"No matter how gently I opened these hooks just enough to get them over the curtain rod, nearly half the hooks in the package broke. Why? Cheaply made crappy metal. Don't buy these. But another product."
118346,1,Not exactly,This item was advertized as not new but had mroe writing in it that rendered it not usable for the purpose for which I had purchased it. The material presented in it is great and useful but this book could not be used by a student as intended.
118364,1,Not 10'' . Not even close,"I ordered this as a gift to go along with the Olivia saves the Circus book. I ordered it because 10"" would be the perfect size for a one year old. I would have had a happy ending had the Olivia been 10"" it is not. It is 6"". Very dissappointed and a little upset because the product discription is dishonest. I will not purchase from the Book Fair again."
118472,1,objections of some track,i want yo know why she objected rainy day featuring ja-rule if possible i need my cope.
118491,1,White Noise,"If you are a guy, never watch this movie. NEVER! If you are a guy who has seen it, and enjoyed it even remotely, you need to do some soul searching."
118580,1,don't buy unless required,"It's a theory book with little or no foundation on what you really need. I especially enjoyed the webpage that offers no help to a student have no other resource available. Although its a book with a comfortable read, it provides nothing more substancial to use. At one point one can actually use it as a reference for subjects that are not part of a programming language course. Please, there are other books much better than this one... unless you are required to buy the book for the course"
118584,1,This one is disappointing...,"Although I have thoroughly enjoyed other books by Jane Feather, I didn't like this one. I should have put it down when I first had an inkling of distaste because it wasn't worth my time. I read romance novels for that -- romance. I do NOT read romance novels for violence, especially violence against women. If you want to sleep with bad dreams, go ahead & read this one in bed. Otherwise, I recommend leaving it on the shelf."
118664,1,this shouldn't be all for you,"Trust Miss J. to come out wif another unimpressive single. Doesn't Really Matter sounded really chessy but the video improved it just a little. All For You sounded promising when the 30-second preview was unleashed, but when the whole song was played, it sounded dated and just a copycat of DRM. Plus tha horrible 80's video! Oh god, she won MTVIcon, my goodness - the video was way too cheap and unispringly boring. Even Miss Lopez did a better job with her lame Love Don't Cost A Thing. The fact that both DRM and All 4 U could have gone #1 shows that Janet. is hugely popular in the US. I hope the new album would be promising. To date, janet.'s still her best album, followed by the dark Velvet Rope even though it was less commercially successful. This is a way too desperate attempt for janet. to sell again... This is definitely not for fans!"
118667,1,Janet is too ... for her own good,I'm sick of all the sex talk janet drivels with every album since 'janet'. Also she needs a new sound as this lightweight r&b is getting tiresome....
118681,1,Not worth it,"This book is very general and not at all specific if you want to delve into disease and such. Overall, its not worth the price."
118698,1,A Must To Avoid,"There is nothing much to recommend about this CD, other than the songs ""Sunny Afternoon"" and ""All Day And All Of The Night"". The rest is filler. Sure the price is OK, but the sound is average and if you enjoy this music at all you will find yourself wanting more. Rhino's ""Greatest Hits, Vol. 1"" compilation is a better place to start."
118711,1,way over priced,"these lights have made a good name, but now are way over priced and they are not really built that well, I have five of them and three are broken within,, they are worth about $2.95 and not a penny more.."
118730,1,Brand new printer - no black ink & no USB Cable,I can't believe that a brand new printer does not come with BLACK ink. I called the customer service. They said you had to buy it separately. A very bad impersion to start. Think before you make an order.
118763,1,so so,I thought the scent was very weak. Maybe strong enough in a very small office or room but not for a living room.
118768,1,Meter,Terrible. Did not read properly. Was returned money. Poorly made. The ohm zero adjust did not work Voltage reading wrong.
118862,1,don't buy,"There is not water release at the bottom....so if you need to drain it, it is a pain in the ass. And shame on AMAZON for charging me 14 bucks to return it. No that wasn't the cost of shipping, that was my refund mins some kind of return fee. So don't buy it....it's not worth it."
118915,1,Worked great...until it didn't,I used this rotary cutter all of 3 times and then the blade suddenly went dull on me. I was surprised at how little I had used it and it was already time to change the blade? I decided to go with another brand because I asked some other people if it was normal. One of my friends had never changed a blade and has been sewing for several years. I learned my lesson from buying something so cheap and then getting poor results.
118922,1,"Love Iza, but this one's not a favorite","My 2 y/o son and I love the other Iza books we have- Twinkle Twinkle, Itsy Bitsy Spider, and I'm a Little Teapot. They are some of our all time favorites! This one, though, is one that I dread reading every time my son brings it to me. He does like it, but I'm not crazy about the story or the rhyming. The animals are greedy and mean, and I don't like the idea of teaching that presents make people like you better. I get the moral of the story (giving rather than receiving) but I don't think that would come across to a small child. The rhymes seemed forced, unlike the other Iza books, and the whiny animals are just annoying. I can't say enough nice things about the other books she has written, but this one just doesn't measure up."
119011,1,Benford can do much better than this,"I've enjoyed a lot of Benford's stuff in the past (especially his ""Galactic Center"" series), but I couldn't get more than halfway into this one, about an intelligent mini-black hole entering the solar system and observing/threatening Earth. Some of the astronomy is interesting, but I'm not a scientist and Benford allows too many *very* specialized techy things to go by without elucidation. He somewhat reminds me here of an updated Fred Hoyle (not a compliment)."
119042,1,I Couldn't Figure it out -,"I LOVED this Tummy Butter when I was pregnant with my little baby, so I ordered it again when we got pregnant with our 2nd. But now when I put it on at night it seems to be extra grainy and won't absorb. It also gave me a rash (I figured maybe skin was just irritated at first), and most of all has made me ITCHY. I couldn't believe it was doing exactly what it is supposed to prevent, and couldn't figure out why it doesn't seem to be what I thought it was. When I just read the review that states Bella B was bought out and has different ingredients, it all makes sense. So disappointing. Will not re-order or purchase other products from this brand."
119105,1,Help Im lost in a Backstreet Boyz vs Snoop Dog CD..........,"RU kidding me leave the old songs alone.It was unlistenable. Maybe Fred Timberlake was thinking about getting back to his tru hip hop roots, but he left his rock edge completely out of this CD. If youre a fan of hip hop then this might...I caution...might be for you. If youre a fan of what music is in the Limp Bizkit library then dont disappoint yourself and get it"
119121,1,"Love the movie, hate the picture quality","I'm not going to comment on the movie itself because I'm assuming if you bought the Blu-ray you are already a fan.If I had paid more than $9.99 for this disk I would be upset. The picture quality is no better than my old VHS tape. I have other movies that are just as old or older that have been transferred to Blu-ray with much better success. Buy the Blu-ray version because you like the movie itself, not because you want to see a more eye popping picture."
119163,1,I've read better.,"As a motorcycle rider I wish I could take a trip like this with support teams along with me. I bought the book thinking they did this all on there own. While what they did is still a big acheivement this trip is far from what most people could do. A much better book is Dave Barr's Riding the Edge, in which he rides around the world on old 1972 Harley-Davidson. Barr is alone most of the trip and is a double amputee. No support teams for him."
119249,1,"some great features, but HATE the wheels","I like this stroller for its reversible handlebar and the recline feature, but the basket is hard to get to when you use the infant car seat. Also, the wheels are horrible. They don't turn well. They are hard to manage when going over sidewalks that aren't even and it doesn't drive well.I struggled with this decision before having my son and didn't want to spend the money on the Bugaboo frog stoller. If I had to do it over again, I would have spent the money on the frog instead of this stroller. In fact, I will probably sell this one on eBay. So if you want this stroller, check out eBay for a deal."
119253,1,Obviously there is an audience for this product....,"George A. Romero enters with yet another installment in his banal and grossly visual zombie flicks and hopefully this will be the last of them. Obviously there is an appreciative audience who enjoys watching partially decomposed bodies stomp around and grunt and eat body parts of the living because a lot of people write positively about this film.For this viewer the 'parody' eludes. LAND OF THE DEAD is simply a dark, grotesque, poorly written, hastily thrown together bit of treacle to make money off the folks who like this genre. But how fine actors like Simon Baker, John Leguizamo, Dennis Hopper, Asia Argento, and Robert Joy agree to the casting agent's invitation to star in this film is a conundrum. Grady Harp, December 06"
119318,1,Think this book is accurate?,"For those of you who read this book and took it seriously, go here: http://mediamatters.org/static/audio/airamerica_klein_20050624.mp3"
119338,1,"Okay romance, not very interesting...","The story and love scenes are okay, but it was hard for me to fall in love with the characters. I also had a hard time understanding why Princess Laurentina fell in love with Dom. Their relationship did not develop through the pages. Perhaps another one of Ms. Dodd's books would be better."
119367,1,Didn't get cover image on my Kindle,I'm very disappointed that I didn't get the cover image when I purchased this book for my Kindle. Customer service could not find a solution to this problem. Not having the image reduced my enjoyment of this book.
119387,1,NEC 1770NX,"I bought a Nec 1770NX lcd display.However, it is not very good. The text is clear and the detail is ok, but the brightness and contrast are a problem. I had to spend a lot of time adjusting to get it so that it wasn't too light, or to dark. The contrast is just not enough on this monitor. It suffersfrom a washed out look.This is strange, at work I have an NEC 1760vx and it is fine.I also have at work, an NEC 1980Sxi, and it is great."
119456,1,suupee,"This is the worse book I have ever read. If I could have given this book a negative star rating, I would.Somewhere in the last 5 years Brenda Joyce has lost her ability to write. And I use the word (write)literally. To sum up her primary characters in HOD, ""She stared"" / ""He stared"" endlessly, & that about sums up the emotion they generated.BJ needs a new editor to get her back on track & a new circle of friends who will tell her honestly where her career is going...down the drain."
119471,1,This is not the ultimate tutorial.,"Don't be fooled by the title -- this is not the ultimate tutorial. You get very little instruction or practice developing actual projects that contain text, graphics, animations, interactions, branching, functions or variables. What you do get is a little information about a lot of different things that won't get you started producing effective training. Even the advanced topics on Knowledge Objects, database, and ActiveX will leave you frustrated and hungry for more information. I got more out of Nick Robert's The Official Guide to Authoware 4 and Orson Kellogg's Authorware 5 Attain Authorized, that together cost less than this book. After spending more that 80 bucks and 2 days studying its contents, I felt bamboozled."
119497,1,Save your money!,I was so disappointed with this vacuum that I returned it for the Extreme Power Stick which I love!
119508,1,A Diary,I wouldn't call this a book. It is more of a diary about a group of friends that make several kayak trips over a several month period. The editorial reviews are misleading. It wasn't a continuous trip as they imply.
119517,1,What's with the price??,How can a Kindle book be more expensive than a paperback? At the time of this review the Kindle version was sold at $13.99 and the paperback was $10.88.
119578,1,Saw little difference in my skin.,"I am 34 and have never had acne before. Now at this stage in life it is a problem. I ordered Klear Action with hope of a cure. However, I have been on it now for 5 weeks and the only thing I can say that is positive about it is that it has evened out my skin color and made my skin glow without make up. with that being said though my acne has NOT improved even a little bit! I think it is actually worse. I am glad it worked for others I was just not one of them!"
119731,1,not so good,"i might have liked it better if the sound followed the people but it kept skipping and running ahead, volume up and down and freezing up very annoying ,,,,,otherwise im sure it was a funny movie as was the christmas one ...."
119826,1,Emmm- pseudoscientific piffle,"I bought this book to give it a shot- Being trained in medicine one does tend to view these 'fringe therapies' with a distrust. But I thought I would approach it with an open mind.I am sorry but the book just doesn't cut the mustard as far as scientific rigour goes.There are reasons that these kinds of therapies aren't part of the mainstream- sometimes it is because the medical profession do not give them a good chance to prove their worth, but other times it is because they have been given their chance, and sadly don't prove their worth!Medical therapies of all kinds have side effects as well as beneficial effects (indeed my side-effect may be your benefit)- and it would appear to me that chelation therapy runs more risk of killing you than helping you. This is just my opinion though.I would advise people not to buy this book but to concentrate on other literature- such as JAMA, the BMJ, the Lancet, NEJM and so on."
119970,1,Not impressed,"I bought this book back in 1998. It looked beautiful. I tried a couple recipes over the years and was very disappointed every time. In fact this is a book that sticks in my mind because I can't figure out why it doesn't work. It should, just doesn't. Pulled the book out again today 12 years later and read it from cover to cover, marked the recipes I want to try that I haven't yet. Tried one of the zucchini recipes. Sounded nice. First time ever my boyfriend scraped it right off his plate into the trash after one bite. I tried it and was also confused. The zucchini and the compote on top just didn't work together separately sure, but not worthy of a being put in a book. So far this is my overall feeling about this book. The recipes just don't work. I use this book to look at photos and get inspired to use vegetable I haven't tried yet. Only I make my own recipes up rather than use Fletcher's.So no not my favorite."
120026,1,schizo was better,"This just sounds like Geri wincing in pain. I hate it. Schizo was much more fun; Geri sings badly on both albums, but at least on the last one she was coyly admitting it was OK. This time she is clearly trying too hard."
120062,1,"Lame, not funny","I thought this was going to be a book more about actual uses for turds. Turns out, this is just a comic book. It's nothing more than a bunch of ink drawings of silly uses for turds. Most of them impractical."
120119,1,lost in translation,"this book started out very interesting but as others have reported, got lost in the shallows. Yes, very original, but even though I did finish it, I don't know why I did or what the message (if there was one) was..... Probably one of the strangest books I have ever started and really finished. Did not like it......"
120149,1,Yesterdays Rising Is God awful,"I live in Murrieta. I Grew up with brandon... God this album was horrible. I was even high when i herd it. God it sucked. Please Brandon Bolmer Stop sucking and shoot yourself in the head. I should have stabbed you on the bus when i had the chance you no talent hack. I hate this band. Despise. I know that kids are making a big deal over nothing. Watch, next year they wont even be around Screw Yesterdays Rising. Screw Brandon Bolbmer."
120154,1,NOT THE PRODUCT THAT I ORDERED,"Performance Accessories 152 3"" Body Lift Kit Chevy S Series Blazer / Gmc Jimmy 98-03I ORDERED THIS KIT AND GOT A 2"" BODY LIFT KIT AND NOT THE 3"" SO I RETURNED IT!!!THEN I RECIEVED A REPLACEMENT KIT AND IT WAS ANOTHER 2"" LIFT NOT MY 3"" KIT, VERY UPSETTING CONSIDERING I HAD A SHOP LINED OUT & RENTED TO INSTALL THIS WEEKEND BUT THEY DID GET ME ANOTHER 2"" KIT QUICK BUT IM STILL WAITING FOR MY 3"" BODY LIFT KIT"
120187,1,Disappointed in Amazon,"This rating should actually be negative 5 stars......I purchased this table lamp in 2009, and absolutely love it-the shade is made with a quality, dark reddish, almost maroon fabric, and the lamp base is metal-solid. That table lamp looked exactly like what was pictured.The lamp I received today is horrible-the shade is shiny, thin, bright orangey-red; can barely see the gold threads; the finial is permanently attached to the harp, and made of shiny brown plastic--its not swirls like whats in the picture, but just a hook shape. I didnt even get to the rest of the lamp, packed everything in the box to go back asap.This item was definitely NOT what was pictured. Amazon has never failed me before, but I am having second thoughts about how I shop this Christmas."
120247,1,couldn't get into it,I did not like this movie at all. It just seemed too stupid for words. Don't waste your time.
120339,1,Well-written but stupid,"Anne Tyler has such talent, it's a shame to see it wasted on a book that is, in my opinion, unbelievable. As a happily married mother of three, I cannot imagine just up and leaving my family without staggering remorse. Yet that is exactly what the heroine does. She may not be ecstatically happy in her marriage, but there is no compelling reason for her to leave. Once she does leave, she has small doubts, but never the guilt I would imagine a real person having. Nor can I imagine a family--husband and grown kids--having located the missing wife/mother, not contacting her, and then, after more than a year, when she returns, not confronting her with accusations. I find it very disturbing that modern America would buy into this premise."
120372,1,Kerouac Bum,"Although Kerouac was quite an interesting character, Charters gives little justice to this literary genius. She gives merely a string of events, adding no story to his life at all. In addition to that, Mrs. Charters does not describe some situations at all. The reader is left to wonder what truly happened in some instances, and this gives little justice to Jack's life. There were a few sentences were the author attempted to write in Jack's style, and fails miserably. I'm sorry to detract so much from Mrs. Charters, but she is no Jack Kerouac. Overall, the book isn't bad, and if you're really interested in Kerouac, it's not a bad place to start, but if you really want to dive into Kerouac's psyche and true genius, this is not the place to do it."
120431,1,One of the worst books ever!,"This may very well be the worst business book ever written. Its advice has duped low level corporate leaders to ""think"" that they are level 5 and do all sorts of stupid things to a company and its employees, ultimately shrinking their market share, concentrating their business risk, and making them vulnerable to a serious setback if even one bad thing happens. It has ruined the lives of its most promising talent, by having subpar management decide who should be on or off the bus, and should be avoided at all costs. Don't read it. Burn it."
120454,1,Stopped working after two weeks of purchasing it.,"It showed an extreme limited number of game codes on the CD that I couldn't extend for other games,It is self deleting the codes for games already downloaded on here and barely worked in my Playstation 2.No I would not recommend this at all to anyone,Don't Buy it!!!!"
120550,1,Didn't work !,"I put this device directly on top of my wireless laptop and the signal meter read 2 bars out of 5 ! Needless to say, I had to send it back. My advice, keep looking, I am."
120556,1,Tribute to Lackey,"THe local high school had a ""tribute to Elvis"" which wasn't bad as school concerts go - but I would be unhappy had I bought the tape believing it was bonafide Presley.I felt the same about this book. Big type saying MERCEDES LACKEY and obvious fantasy - great, picked it up for airplane reading, and was annoyed to find Lackey had written only the verses it was based on. ANd I have never been an admirer of her verses.It was a bit like being a high school teacher and having to read the efforts of a whole class told to write an essay on one topic. I would want to get paid to do that!"
120582,1,Prepare for disappointment,"This is one of the worst movies of 2011. Who ever wrote the script, produced and directed this movie should be ashamed. Daniel Craig, Rachel Weisz and especially Naomi Watts talents are totally squandered. The advertising for this movie entirely misrepresents what type of movie it is. Don't waste your time or your money."
120592,1,Simply not worth the price.,"I'm a huge fan of Judge Judy, I've watched hundreds of episodes over the last ten years. I guess that's obvious though, why else would I have purchased this DVD?Well, the DVD is disappointing. It only has 9 cases, none of which are particularly long or much more interesting than the show itself. It has a couple 60 minutes interviews that are cool, just because it was neat to see Judge Judy in her former ""life"" so-to-speak and with her family. But, all said and done, this DVD isn't even worth the $12 asking price.If I buy a DVD of a show like this, I expect to at least be given more than an hours worth of cases and some slapped-together ""extra"" content. I would not recommend purchasing this DVD as you are better off just watching the show."
120845,1,Not sturdy,I think this product is too weak. The picture gives a wrong impression about the product. The pump handle is also very small. This is delicate pump. I would not recommend this product.
120846,1,I beg to differ,"Well, despite the fact is quite minimally researched and cutely balanced, it is also wrong in the title. Whatever the newly rich petroleum states might want to say, the name of the body of water sorrounded from the south by the Arabian Penninsula, from the north by Iran, and from the west by the Strait of Hormuc is and has always been the PERSIAN Gulf. The Romans called it Sinus Persicus, and all around the world, it is known by that name, the Persian Gulf. It is NOT an ethnic case, it does not have to do with political domination (although that's what Arab States want). It is just A name!"
121055,1,If not for the battery...,"Theoretically, this is a great phone. It looks nice, feels good (solid and not too bulky), has reasonable sound quality and range, and a headset jack. As a bonus, it has a compartment with an extra battery in the back of the base, for those long conference calls. Perfect.Unfortunately, it suffers from one fatal flaw - the battery. When we bought the phone, we immediately noticed that the battery life wasn't exactly long; if we didn't always return the handset to the base, it would run out.Now, less than a year later, both batteries die suddenly a few minutes into the first call, no matter how long we leave it on the charger. To make matters worse, the replacement battery doesn't appear to be one of the standard ones available at local stores (which have a wide selection), so we can't replace the batteries; we're forced to buy a new phone.Don't buy this phone; it's unusable. A pity, because in every other respect this is a great product."
121087,1,Sordid and Depraved,"I hated this book. And I am in no way a follower of ""the unnameable one"". I enjoyed The Red Tent and will continue to seek out that type of fiction among others, because I found it interesting.I only got through this because I listnened on audio, and boy do I wish I had listened to something else for that ten hours. The beginning was somewhat interesting, realistically laying out how this ark building and filling business would have taken place. If this would be made into a movie it would have to be rated ""NC-17"". And not in a good way. Rape after overly convenient suicide after beating after rape. I kept waiting for some slight ray of light to come through. It never did. We just ended up getting a big dose of justification for racism, like a slap in the face. I found it sickening. Maybe I shouldn't have been surprised at that, considering the source material! Do yourself a favor and avoid it."
121127,1,Why is Amazon selling such Trash - Please Remove!,This book is full of lies and Michael Jackson sued the author for defamation of character and won the case. However the author then left the country so he wouldn't have to pay the judgement against him. Shame on Amazon for supporting such a trashy untrue book! Please remove your sale of this book immediately!
121171,1,"Lovers of history, halt!","You can learn more reading either Julian's writings, other primary sources and other books.There is nothing I can say that has not been said before about this book. Just, read another book - that is actually objective (The Last Pagan, etc.). Or reading Julian's writings, that are available free on the internet. This has been a phenomenal waste of time. I learned nothing but the dripping scorn and contempt the auhor has about the subject he is writing about.Books about a historical personage has to be even handed and objective; if subjective, it has to be a plausible interpretation based on the primary sources. This book is neither."
121180,1,Hand Buzzer,"In short, you get what you pay for. My son was excited to find this on Amazon but this buzzer doesn't work. Don't waste ur money. It does not make the buzzer noise or have any electric effect."
121190,1,Not for Hardcore Gamers,I am a LONG TIME pc user and pc gamer.I wanted this for a1. tv2. pc gaming monitor3. xbox gaming monitor4. dvd veiwing device.Here is how I rate this monitor on these four levels on a scale of 1 to 5:1. tv = 22. pc gaming monitor = 23. xbox = 14. dvd = 3The ghosting for normal operations is almost too much to live with. I returned this item just so you know. The rca inputs gave me only black and white images. This could have been because my monitor was defective. I am not sure.Ghosting during gaming was very bad. Worse than that was it's lack of good brightness control.This is not for gamers.
121218,1,Defective On Arrival,"This unit has a spring action valve to allow water/coffee to move from the basket to the pot. Either the mechanism which activates the value or the valve itself was defective on initial use. While a portion of the water did feed through the value, a significant portion remained in the brewer (4 cups out of 12). The result was water left in the brewer basket and had there been coffee grounds inside at the time of the initial cycle (which was being done to clean the unit before use) there would have been a total mess. Three subsequent tries yielded the same result.The unit is stylish in appearance although the on/off switch lacks good tactile feel and the retro look buttons feel a bit cheap.Because of the initial defect and what looks like a design issue where the defect is likely to reoccur, I have returned the unit for a refund."
121250,1,Only good for a year,"Brews a good cuppa, but not a quality product. Woke up, flipped switch, light came on, but nothing got hot. I expected better."
121360,1,Disapproved of the plot!,"After reading 'Henley's 'Pirate and the Pagen, Raven and the Rose, and the Falcon and the Flower', I found that 'Hawk and Dove' scored the same as 'Dragon and Jewel' on my 'read again only if on a remote island and there are no natives to talk to'. Virginia Henley is one of my favorite authors! I loved all the characters in the three novels mentioned above, however, as I stated in reviewing 'Dragon and Jewel', I was disappointed by 'Henley', but alas, I own 'Pirate and Pagan (disapproved of the adultery plot), Raven and Rose, and Falcon and Flower', and they are my cherished 'dime store purchases'. Maybe I disliked this novel because at the time I was reading 'Hawk and the Dove', I kept thinking, if that was my husband cheating on me with me, I would slip poison in his wine goblet."
121495,1,What kind of nonsense is this?,I am not referring to the CD but the review by Herbert S. Philbrick. This guy has heard one track on a radio program and he puts in a 3 star place holder? People make buying desicions based on these reviews. Herbert S. Philbrick needs a dose of responsibility....
121543,1,I wish I could rate the item!,I would love to rate this item but that would require for me to have recieved an item in the first place.Accesoryone has gave me nothing but trouble regarding my order & then threathned me by saying if I want a full refund I would have to retract my comment that I posted stating the problems that I was having with them.The bottomline is I will never order anything from this seller anymore!!!
121624,1,Worst DVD I have ever seen - Great Movie though!,"I have tried two copies of this DVD in two different players. One froze for minutes, another stopped and never restarted both in chapter 14. Worst DVD ever. Buy this locally like I did so you can take it back easily.Google ""Bourne Ultimatum Freezes"" and see what you get....."
121651,1,Puh-lease!!!!!,"What a crock! These guys are using the oldest tricks in this book.. I Mean, come on. Flirt with a guy so he'll notice you? Right. How about these guys do some of the work themselves? They want us to act like hookers but they won't even pay... I actually bougt this dog book... Girls, don't waste your $..."
121664,1,GUILTY AS CHARGED,The Charges : 1. Turning heavy metal into wuss music2. Inciting no talent bands like Nirnana to revoltagaint the aforementioned wuss musicThe Verdict : GUILTY ON BOTH COUNTS
121684,1,Not really worth buying,"I don't see what people see in this album. I couldn't rate it a 3 even. There are about 3 songs toward the end that are worth having. It's a long way from Olias or Change We Must.I'm a Yes fan since 75 and Jon's voice is my favorite musical artistry, bar none. But this album is one of his weak ones, as he can produce.P"
121685,1,Awful,"I read Evergreen many years ago (and thoroughly enjoyed it), this was the first Belva Plain book I had picked up since - what a mistake! It was the worst book I have read in a long time. The characters were unlikeable, no worthy traits whatsoever and the character development was very poor. The timeline of the story didn't hold any meaning either - it was set in the 1970's to late 1990's, there was no evidence of this at all, it could have been 1870's with the way Robb expressed himself. Old fashioned, questionable sentiments and POOR story! Don't bother picking this one up!"
121719,1,Funny????,"I've come to expect that Christopher Moore will be a very good, if very wacky yarn spinner. Here he writes what I suppose could be characterized as a kind of biography of the main character, but it doesn't hold together. I've put it down several times, pretty much with the remark of, ""So &%$@ what?"" The coyote god is not amusing, simply annoying; and I'd swear the hero is on peyote at least. There are a few amusing moments, and some luscious use of English, but no belly laughs. It's almost mechanical, as though Moore's publisher nagged him to get something--anything--written. Didn't like this one at all."
121729,1,"Maybe it's me, maybe not.....","I just don't see this as an overall ""strong"" record. Although I have enjoyed many of Underworld's songs in the past--I think 2 maybe 3 songs stand out on the CD and the rest is unlistenable. I don't think my opinion is due to the fact that I just don't ""get it"" or I ""don't appreciate art"" because I like a diverse variety of music both new and old--this CD's just not all that. Get Backstreet Boys or Britney Spears instead...."
121751,1,The downward spiral begin with this disc,"After releasing two back to back discs, Blackstreet began their downward spiral with this medicore CD. For starters the group is without the smooth falestto of Mark Middleton and instead were giving Terrel Phillips. Second the huge single Take Me There is presented in a weak remix and finally there's only good ballad on the CD which is Think About You. I don't know what happened to the Blackstreet from the excllent Another Level because they for sure aren't on this disc."
121841,1,Quicken 2004 Premier,Very long time Quicken user. 2004 edition has serious flaws.Extremely poor software testing. Planner calculations can notbe trusted. Support person had very limited understanding of product. Gave up after a wasted hour. I had to guide him!!Not worth the money they charge.
121844,1,GOOD BYE QUICKEN 2004,I am can not express my self how frustrated I was after I had loaded quicken 2004 on my XP system. I have been using 2003 successfully but 2004 version is soo slow. my system is 3.0ghz and 2 gb of ram and I could not believe it how slow it ran. The most ridicules part is that quicken 2004 will not revert database to 2003 version so I have to retype about two weeks of transactions!Need advice - steer away from this product!!! I would not use it even if it was for free!!!
121861,1,What a difficult review to write...,"Since getting my hands on the Equinox Album as a child in the 70's I've been hooked on Jean Michel Jarre and pretty much have everything he's ever recorded before and after Oxygene. That's why I was extremely surprised to hear that the minimal sounding Les Grange Brulees album being re-released. The original album is rarer than hen's teeth and worth a lot of money to Jarre collectors. But after hearing the album, you have to ask yourself why. The painful truth is that there isn't a lot to shout about Jarre's work prior to Oxygene. This album is a stepping stone to the Jarre we know and love. There are some themes in there that are reused in later works and as such, I can see this album only being found interesting by absolute die-hard Jarre fans or possibly academics interested in early electronic music. It's no Oxygene or Equinox."
121898,1,"Cheap, and very slow","Takes forever to do a short-circuit test. Even when simply touching the two probe together, it'll take about 0.5 to 1 sec to beep. Many times, the beeping is not even continuous, just one beep, done.When measuring AC voltage sitting on top of a large DC voltage, very inaccurate (reads 0.265VAC on top of a 30VDC while VAC should be 0.)Takes forever for any reading to stabilize.This would totally work if you just use it for very simple tasks like measuring a battery. I made a mistake thinking that this would be the right tool to aid my DIY headphone amplifier."
121944,1,Middle Age Spread,"Concrete Blonde's Group Therapy is the aural equivalent of middle age spread. There are excellent songs here, especially ""True, Part III"", ""Valentine"", and ""Inside/Outside"", and a few real clinkers (""Violent"", ""Fried""), but the entire thing could use toning and tightening. Average song length pushes the five-minute mark, with little melodic or thematic development. Johnette Napolitano, in fine mettle, is easier to take since she has nothing to prove. Still, there's weariness in this CD, and the sad realization that it takes twice as long to end up in the same damn place."
121976,1,Just wanted a hammock for by the pool :-(,"I was really exciting to find a hammock that could hold up to 300 lbs. I took it on vacation without testing it & now I'm so disappointed. It was a little tricky to set up. Per the instructions, extending the ""A"" hook while walking backwards to ""unfold"" the hammock didn't work, it just pulled the hammock towards me - none of the other parts fell into place like the directions indicate. Anyway, once unfolded & bars ""locked"" in place, put hammock on & got in. Getting in was typical for a hammock, balance & coordination are needed - that was expected. I was in the hammock for 15 minutes & one of the steel bars that touches the ground bends, bringing the hammock down. The bar bend so much that I could barely get it back in the box to return it. Wish it would have turned out better - I was really looking forward to laying in a hammock by the pool. So sad now....& a pain to repack & return too."
122109,1,Sorely disappointed with this one!,"I did not like this book at all. I loved Bridges of Madison County and only read the epilogue to find out what happened to the two star crossed lovers. I won't tell all since I know most of you are reading this to decide whether or not to buy it / read it. If I had it to do over again, I would definitely skip this one. Thank goodness I didn't pay $ for it. I would've wanted to demand my money back. It was that bad. It doesn't even have the same flavor to it that Bridges had....I spent the whole time reading it and waiting for the reunion. I was so disappointed."
122120,1,nice if you can get one,"I have been waiting since July 1, 2006 for this item to be stocked and shipped from Amazon. If you can tell me where else this little jem exists please tell all customers so they dont have to wait any longer."
122230,1,sub par performance,"I'm really disappointed in these things. For that price, i was hoping for better... my cordless oster does a way better job than these, it's too bad that i broke of the 2 most important guards (#1 and #1.5 ) for that one though."
122251,1,Issues with delivery,"Apparently there was some issues with delivering the book that I did not and could not find out about until 20 days had passed (The length of time that it could take Media mail to be delivered.) My daughter was 2.5 weeks into the Quarter and ended up having to purchase the book at full price from the school bookstore. I am not sure that reimbursement alone was ample compensation for the inconvenience my Daughter had to go through. The seller is not completely at fault, the post office should share some of the blame."
122286,1,"Funny, approaching satire, not very original","Another reviewer notice that some of the material bears an erie similarity to several Web sites on the topic. Without leveling a charge of direct copying one way or the other there is some VERY similar writing online. (Students, Authors and Publishers take note: Google knows everything...)While I realize that this book is a sometimes sucessful attempt at satire it also has several gross fabrications made up so that they could be satirized or simply add to the page count. Com'on reality is so much richer than fiction and much funnier to satirize. YAWN."
122304,1,Save your money,"Living in a hurricane prone area I thought this might be a good investment. I received it today and am very disapointed. It reminds me of something I could have ordered out of a comic book as a kid. My first impresstion is it's light weight,poorly made,very bad sound and doesn't receive stations very well.Maybe in a storm I'll be glad I bought it ,but I doubt it. Hope I don't have to find out!"
122335,1,Enough really is enough,"This album is a joke, much like the band. I still remember laughing at their videos on MTV and I was only ten years old at the time. Please, take the money for this CD and give it to the poor or something."
122366,1,More explanation than workout,"I'm ok at following directions, but the complexity of the steps and the long explanations made this not so fun and impractical for learning to learn even short sections of the workout. Disappointing."
122397,1,It is a piece of junk. It dulls in under 5 cuts. BUYER BEWARE,The blade is the most inferior and over priced I have purchased. I later found a carbide excellent quality blade at a local hardward store that is makita brand and carbide for only $80.00 I suggest to buyers stay away from this china junk and look for a carbide makita brand blade for the close to the same price.
122429,1,DVD Quit Working,We've had this unit less than 18 months and the DVD no longer reads discs. The manual is useless and support from GoVideo is nonexistent.I will never buy another GoVideo product.
122431,1,Director put some efforts in it,"The movie is okay. It starts right in action and you get whole hour of boredom until the moment where cards are revealed and you know what is actually going on in the movie. The special effects are not the worst and far to the best. However you can see, that the director actually tried to make the special outfit for the special forces and the graphics as told before are not bad. The monsters are boring looking however they look like monsters and it seems like he put some money in it. One of the actors had a very funny voice, hew was my favorite actor from the movie. Funny thing that when you think this movie has another hero, it actually does not and therefore a movie has some twists. I was thinking it is about aliens but no, closer to the end where truth gets revealed you realize it is far nothing to do with aliens or mutants. Well I watched the movie, and it got me bored to be honest, however you still can give it a chance."
122443,1,why a 1991 version?,"not a bad disc, but the advertisement stated a 2004 disc, and i received one from 1991. if there is a newer remastering, i would have much rather gotten that, especially on an old recording like this."
122478,1,Not the quality I expected,"I purchased this thinking Body Glove was a quality product, but after only a few months of use the interior clear plastic that covers the display screen came apart at the seams. Also, the clear plastic never seemed to stay in place while using the phone, it would always ride up and cover the receiver/speaker; you would have to either constantly push it back down so that you could hear the other caller or take it off altogether."
122480,1,Good when it works.,"The buttons stopped working on mine, too, then started again. Then, files started getting corrupted so the player would freeze and I'd have to remove the battery to reboot it. I'd replace the files and different ones would cause the problem the next time. I will be buying a different mp3 player."
122493,1,Mask of Apollo only good for the interested in greek history,i thought the mask of apollo was a dull book that was hard to follow i was to read this book for a school project and although i am able to follow most books i found this one most strenous to read. I am not at all interested in greek history and was amazed at all the talk of homosexual affiars. I would not recommend this book for any child under the age of 18 who has no interest in histroy. i would recomend this book to children with devoted interest to history and who are good at reading comprehension and to adults who are interested in greek history.
122569,1,The 50 states quarter folder,"It could not see whether it can hold the quarters, until you get and try it."
122603,1,Is it really an approved study guide?,"Waste my money, waste my time. I buy it because it is the onlyone approved study guide and there is no book review at that time. Itis really horrible. How a 300 more pages training guide can make you pass Site Server exam? It is impossible. Even, it spends many pages talking about materials not Site Server related. How this book can be approved? Don't buy it anyway... END"
122665,1,Compatibility issues!,"My issue is with the game maker Encore not the game there are too many things that will not let you play version of this game. I had go into ""MSCONFIG"" and shut everything down to even get it to load. And as is the ""norm"" these days you can't get a service rep that speaks English clearly to help find the trouble. I would say find a different company, not Encore to buy the game from. O and their idea of a ""Jewel case"" is a paper envelope wrapped in a piece of card board."
122679,1,Photo instructions are bad,"I have been doing intermediate Pilates for about 18 months now. I saw this book in a store and was curious about it, so I picked it up and started flipping through it. I was shocked to see that in each photo, Denise has her head turned, grinning at the camera instead of actually putting her head in the proper position for the move. Head position is essential to all the moves, and I don't know very many that involve turning one's head to one side and smiling widely! LOL Anyway, to be fair once I saw that I didn't read any of the book. Maybe she makes up for it in the written descriptions. But that photo faux pas was enough to make me put down the book and not look back. I can't believe some editor let that book get published that way! It could be a great book for all I know, but just those photos were enough to make me cringe!"
122707,1,Better ones out there,"This magnifying glass is cheap and plasticky. It does work but there're better ones out there for the same price. I saw one the same size with better construction, 6 led's instead of 1, and cheaper too at my local Ace store."
122723,1,Too fragile,"I read the review about how easily these glasses crack, but I bought anyway. Sure enough, after first use, one is cracked."
122760,1,Where did the guy learn to write?,"Having practiced digital logic design in its many forms (from basic digital implementations to VHDL), over a period of 20+ years, I must state that this is possibly the most poorly written text I have ever seen on the discipline."
122956,1,Not a good set,"I bought the cd set before I left for Korea to teach English. It is not a very good set for learning Korean. Sure, it will give you some useful expressions, but a lot of the expressions I did not use in Korea (I was there for almost 3 years). The pronunciation was off, too. It was not accurate, at times, concerning words. When I said 'excuse me' as instructed by the set, my co-teacher laughed at me because it was the wrong word! I have studied languages before (Spanish, Japanese, French (degreed in French))and the Pimsleur set is not one that I would ever recommend."
123061,1,"Smell-good oils, not essential oils",The gardenia and lilac smell ok. These are not powerful pure essential oils though. They are just kinda nice smelling oils.
123114,1,Disappointing,"The movie seemed to be based on the fear of each actor rather than any true intent to investigate an alleged ""haunted"" house. The psychic was very inexperienced and went sofar as to bring a Ouiji Board along. The character portraying Ryan felt qualified because she was a historian major? She was the most useless and annoying character of all the characters. The characters, Tim and Paul, were the most believable and their acting was convincing. (Too bad they weren't offered a script worthy of their talents.)Not much happened at all pertaining directly to activity expected to be seen in such an alleged spirited old house.I would not again pay to see this movie a second time. Nor would I recommend anyone else pay to see this movie.This movie may entertain a more novice horror buff. However, if you love a ""good"" (i.e. well-written/well-acted) horror movie, you will be disappointed in this one."
123123,1,Rips easy.,We bought this for our 6 year old daughter who asked for one for Christmas. It ripped within the first week.
123145,1,Leaks and Company will not stand behind product,I had this product for 8 months (Professionally installed)... Part of a new kitchen.. I got the under sink kit and it leaks to the point it almost ruined my cabinet... I called the support line and they said I needed to buy a new one and the warranty was only good for 100 days which is just about enough time to realize the lack of quality in the craftsmanship...
123152,1,calc for chemistry students,"the keys absolutely suck, they don't register right so when you try to do 2+2+2+2+2, it instead reads as 22+2+22, not a good calculator, i recommend getting the higher up TI's if you can"
123167,1,NOT Vet Recommended,"After taking my cat to the vet to have her spayed, the vet mentioned that she had fleas. I had been noticing small black dots on my cat's fur that according to the vet were ""flea droppings"" from her flea infestation. I had also been noticing some itching, but only after she had visits with dogs, so I assumed the Frontline was killing the fleas on contact...I assumed wrong!The vet said that she had witnessed several cases where Frontline was no longer working and that she recommended Advantage. I have since ordered it and am awaiting its arrival."
123272,1,Worst Shaver Ever!,"I bought this Panasonic shaver based on the reviews on Amazon and was greatly disappointed.I tried it as a standard dry shaver and it kept missing hairs. I tried it as a wet shaver and I tried it with shaving cream but still got poor results. I ending up buying another shaver 2 weeks after buying the Panasonic because it was so bad.Now, after having it less than a year, the shaver will not charge and I have to throw it away at an electronic waste center.Do not waste you're money on this piece of junk."
123277,1,All right as a standby,It's light and inexpensive. Not too good doing your beard. Good as a spare or for travel but I'm not sure if it can be charged on 220-volt outlet. It is not marked on the charging base.
123301,1,sweet mother of god,"bought this for my father in law, and i couldn't have wanted to stab myself in the face more if i tried."
123511,1,I guess I didn't get it,"I lasted 30 minutes. I found the characters, situations and dialog so effective at annoying me that I was sure it was intentional, but there was no payoff. It was just an ordeal."
123517,1,Too good to be true,"I was really excited to see the price on this card, however, once I tried putting in my phone, I was unable to format it because my phone did not recgnize the card. So, whenever I added files to it, they wouldn't be there the next time I turned on the phone or took the card out. I had to go to my service provider and get a card from them. Be careful, if something is too good to be true, then it probably isn't"
123620,1,Waste of money,I am not sure who this is for.I could not spend any time to find out more because it is very poorly built and odd looking graphics.Dumped it in trash within 5 mins after I opened the package.
123636,1,G-String Better Worn Than Played,"Despite having a nice rich tone, these strings refuse to settle-in and maintain pitch even after 3 weeks, the G string seemingly the worst of the bunch. Just when things seemed stable, the G developed a buzz because of a breakdown at the 3rd fret, signaling its final demise. Some 30 pound monofilament fishing line would be a better choice."
123673,1,A huge disappointment,"I truly expected something much better from Margaret Atwood. What I got was a disjointed substandard set of scenes, never developed properly - and held together by only the flimsiest of plot lines. After reading this book, I told a family member that it reminded me of cheap X-rated movies; everything seemed to serve only as placeholders for sleazy sex scenarios. If this was the only book by Margaret Atwood that someone had read, they would think she was a frustrated screenwriter for low budget adult movies.This book was so bad that I threw it out. I wouldn't want to inflict this poor excuse for a novel on anyone. And if this is where her writing is going-it will be the last Atwood book I ever read. And that is a very sad thing to have to say about any author."
123711,1,Lining Rips at 3 months,"We've only had the bag for 14 weeks and the lining is already ripping, which is apparently a common problem for this bag. It's only used for her to go back and forth from daycare (I have a smaller bag that we use for normal errands, etc.) and should not be coming apart already."
123717,1,Never came,"Firstable this order never arrived yet, and I'm concern about it. Can somebody tell when it will be on my hnads?"
123723,1,Sean Krueger knows what he's talking about,"I agree. C'mon WB, get you act together. Sean hit the nail on the head!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Although he was way to generous with 3 stars."
123735,1,not what I expected,"The book I received was an earlier release, not the one pictured in the ad. I was disappointed that I had an earlier version."
123784,1,Not tough enough!,"I really wanted this to work for my 3-year-old son but within hours of opening it one of the strings had already popped. A few days later and the guitar was in two pieces (came unglued at the neck). Obviously a child that age can be hard on things, but this guitar didn't even put up a fight!"
123807,1,Unimpressed,"I was v. unimpressed with some of the fragrances, especially Squid Surprise and Old Man's Cadaver.Who the heck wants their house smelling like some elderly fisherman died there last week?Also, an electric bulb works better at lighting a room and is way cheaper to run."
123834,1,my worst experience,"After I recorded a few tapes using this brand new camcorder bought from Amazon, it got snowflake-like noise all over LCD screen. Since I did not use it for the first month after I got it, I could not return it and had to send it to SONY repair center for service. After I got it back, it constantly complains about dirty video head and I have to use a cleaning tape each time it does that. My worst experience with any electronics I ever had."
123850,1,disappointment,"Jules Destrooper, Cookie Thins Almond 100G, 3.5-OunceThis proved to be an all time ripoff. I was expecting a broken case of cookies. I received 1 box of cookies worth $3 - paid $9.95 for the cookies, plus $6.30 for shipping. $16.25 for a $3 value. Never again will I shop Amazon. Richard Rossi"
123895,1,Outlandish Characters,"Paul Kidd has a horrible character mix for an otherwise awesome setting. Descent into the Depths of the Earth (Oerth?) was a fascinating setting that set my fellow Dungeon Masters and players on fire for Drow (evil black-skinned elves that dwell in caves and tunnels).Justicar is a fairly good character, but Escalla is just too Roleplaying Gamey with her random powers. She just makes a serious novel a joke, in the worse sense of the term.Polk and Enid are interesting. These characters have some hope.The way that a minor spell tripped up a major god (Thoth) makes a mockery of gods. But maybe that was what Kidd was after.Overall, I say Ru Emerson does a better job of respecting the setting that Paul Kidd. But her characters are far less interesting.RATING: Since I had to give it a star, I did. Otherwise, I would give it no stars."
123915,1,"Full screen, really DVD bad transfer, and mediocre movie","So, as others have said this DVD is Fullscreen (when I placed my order the product page still mistakenly said widescreen) and the video transfer is horrendous even for an 80's movie with many scenes out of focus and lots of dust and grain on the picture as if someone just video taped the movie for the DVD from a poor projection screen. The story on top of that is also pretty mediocre but I'm glad to finally have it again to show the kids."
124064,1,It was a complete disappointment ! Not recommended.,"I am a big Chante' Moore fan and have been since her very first album. She has a beautiful voice, and her lyrics have always had meaning except on this album. There are no words to describe how awful this album is for her amount of talent. We wanted too long to get something so disappointing. She needs to try new producers. The Jimmy Jam, Terry Lewis style seems to only work for Janet. Chante' has true vocal talents, and should use them to make beautiful music."
124086,1,not her best,"I've read other Georgia Beers books that I really enjoyed but this just wasn't one of them. The premise behind the story line wasn't bad, and the throwback references to lesbian culture of a decade or so ago were actually something I enjoyed, but the editing and the way this book was put together just about ruined it for me. I thought at first maybe I was just being picky, but it just got worse for me as the book went on. This may sound silly, but practically the ONLY descriptor of the characters is ""the older woman"" or ""the younger woman"". After awhile, I was laughing every time I read those phrases. An editor should have caught this. I also really disliked the subplot of the father and daughter both falling for the same woman. Kind of creepy. Read Georgia Beers. She's a good author, but skip this title. It misses the mark. A new edition with some additional editing could improve it significantly."
124110,1,You must be kidding,"You must be kidding. This is a piece of garbage. And an editors choice yet, have you lost your mind???"
124223,1,A long way to go for not very much,"Folks, what can I say? There's an awful lot of books out there. And there isn't enough time to read even a tiny fraction of them. so, when an author with a name and reputation like Robert Silverberg come along, you expect alot. The front of the book refers to this overly long book as his masterpiece. I hate to see what the rest of his portfolio looks like. Don't get me wrong, as always, he has a great premise, somewhat original, and it is definitely intriguing. But the ending of this book may be the lamest excuse for writing that I have ever witnessed. It's pretty embarrassing. I don't understand what happened. Perhaps he ran out of time and he just had to finish it. Skip this one, please."
124333,1,Watch your ears.,"Bought these as a replacement for my Panasonic RPHC300 noise-cancelling headphones, which I was very happy with, but which broke on me. These were slightly cheaper and cool-looking, so I took a chance.Unfortunately, not only is the sound a little muffled and bassy, but the ""noise-cancelling"" actually produces a nearly-painful low-frequency thudding sound. It's faint, but it seems to produce pressure on the ear in the closed space within the over-the-ear headphone. After a couple of days with these (and I wear headphones 12-15 hours a day as part of my job), my right ear was ringing. This still has not entirely gone away. Sent an email to Skullcandy days ago, asking if this was some kind of malfunction, but still have not received a reply, hence seeking relief here.So, to sum up: sound -- not great; noise-cancelling -- disastrous. If you buy these, I recommend NOT using that feature."
124334,1,"Poor Man's ""Bose""","[Please note: I give this product 4 stars, not 2. I could not change that].The headphones basically do what they claim to do. They are light and comfortable. I like the design. They look a lot like the first Bose version, but are a bit bigger. The batteries go into the headphone part, so there is no clumsy ""battery box"" externally, which is nice. Sound I would rate a 6 or 7 on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being best). Noise cancellation is pretty decent. There is a minor problem with the NC, though. When mine is turned and I am plugged into a laptop or Ipod, I get a loud buzzing noise. When I unplug the Ipod from the wall power source, the buzzing stops. If that bugs you, I would not recommend them. But they are decent when you are not hooked into a wall power source, and are very similar to Bose's NC headphones, which cost about 6 times more. I can recommend them, for this price. Would be good on a plane trip if you are not a ""snob"" in terms of sound."
124336,1,AT @ T old company outdated Customer Service,"I have ATT for wireless shared plan, I have a great deal of problems with the their customer service, and the plan are outdated with the competetion, they need to catch up with the other world."
124363,1,Had it for a few years and just tossed it in th dumpster and glad to be done with this POS finally,Will not do anything if the ink is low until you buy more ink. Drops the wireless signal often and the software is a resource hog on the computer. Run away from this junk.
124371,1,Will cost you more in the long run,"I loved this printer at first. I thought the ink was cheap, and it seemed reliable. After a couple of months, I found out that it has counters on the ink cartridges, and counts the total number of pages you print, and gives ink status messages based on that. We do almost exclusive black and white printing here, and it still eats color cartridges like crazy. When you factor in the cost of a color ($20) and b&w ($10) cartridge, you are paying $30 to make black and white pages. Not happy. Selling this as soon as I can, and getting a different brand. Also, there is no way to refill the ink, like with other brands (hp, etc.). Their ""cheapest ink"" will cost you more in the long run. Don't buy this printer!"
124471,1,dissapointing recording,Good performance but terible audio quality makes this CD hard to sit through.
124490,1,Too Cool [update],"I'm updating my review of Elephant after reading through some of the previous posts here. One post stood out. Buried in this huge list of reviews is someone who shared his 1-star opinion and had the ""big ones"" to post a link to his own two-man show. His songs sound as if he recorded them in a dirty gas station bathroom during a fill-up while fleeing from the law for shooting his girlfriend and is now on his way south to meet his maker. Take that however you wish. Good thing? Bad Thing? Whatever. It rocks! Rocks with the kind of drive, passion, desire, and abandon that Elephant completely lacks. It's something I haven't heard in The White Stripes since ""Fell In Love With A Girl."" If the silver lining to Elephant is that it puts a flame under people's asses to try and make something better, to know that they can, then, well, maybe Elephant deserves another star."
124512,1,Disappointment,"This book came highly recommended to me, both by friends and by the excellent reviews here and on Barnes & Noble's site. (And it has such a pretty cover!) Despite this, I was disappointed by it.Plotwise, I believe that Hollick accomplishes her goal in providing a gritty, Dark Ages version of Arthur. That bit she does well. However, there was too much smut in it for my taste (numerous sex scenes, description of a rape). I wish someone had mentioned that to me before I bought it, because I would have spent my $16 on something else (for example, Parke Godwin'sFirelord, which is written in a similar style (Arthur as a military leader rising to power in Roman Britain) but is a more ingenious and well-written narrative overall)."
124540,1,Junk watch.,"I have had three of these. everyone of them broke with in 3 months.first one, the digital went wacky and wouldnt work properly any more. i did a walmart exchange in it and got another this one had the analog adjustment pin fall out and fill with water. thinking it was just a fluke, i got yet another one via walmart exchange and again, the adjustment pin fell out.also the plastic adjustment bezel paint flaked off with in 2 weeks on ever one of them ive had. it wasnt a big deal because the color plastic its made of is the same color as the paint, but its still worth notingi love this watch and wanted very desperately for it to be good, but alas, it disappointed me not once, not twice, but 3 times before i finally said screw it and gave up on the exhanges."
124544,1,FALCO'S LABEL LAYS HORRIBLE HOMAGE WITH THIS REMIX MESS.,"First off! I LOVE FALCO! His songs that he gave us like ""Jeanny"" ""Junge Romer"", ""Rock Me Amadeus"", etc. were great!But this remix collection is one of the worst collections I have bought in my entire music buying career which is 26 years long and growing!Songs like ""Rock Me Amadeus"" and ""Jeanny"" are so badly botched up, you really wonder if you are even listening to these songs at all. Missing are the hooks, and music that made these songs.The only pretty good remixes are of ""Der Kommisar"" and ""Junge Romer"", other wise this CD is complete junk.Warner Bros. Records should be ashamed to release such a travesty after this mans untimely death.Falco deserves better!"
124557,1,Good book. Pulitzer Prize winner?,"I'm shocked that this received the Pulitzer. I guarantee that if it had been written by a woman, it wouldn't have gotten a more than a kind mention. Yes, these are hardworking, salt-of-the-earth kinds of people, but it's essentially the story of a man's midilfe crisis. Toss in a hometown greasy spoon, a moody teenage daughter and a tough-as-nails town matriarch, and you've got it, right down to the ketchup-soaked hamburgers. Tough to wade through. Arrrgh."
124563,1,Wrong Song,"The national anthem of Australia is ""Advance Australia Fair,"" not ""Waltzing Matilda."" Any CD that purports to have the national anthems of different nations and can't even get them right is a joke..."
124581,1,Skip It!,"Wow. I was expecting at least some form of interesting analysis based on all the previous reviews. Sargant makes use of the science that was available to him at his time, which is obviously sorely outdated - (Although I was impressed that he understood the inherente flaws in psychoanalysis).One example of how outdated the book is: ""prefrontal leucotomy,"" the REMOVAL of the frontal lobes of the brain, is hailed by Sargant as a promising new practice. Again, Sargant can't be blamed for the time period in which he lived, but you don't have to waste your time reading this book.I was thoroughly disappointed by the lack of thesis and the lack of any mildly persuasive arguments.Skip this book!I gave it one star because of the hilarious picture and caption on page 222. The picture shows two teenagers dancing at a concert with the caption: ""Similar effects being produced in a nonreligious setting in Great Britain by the use of rhythmic drumming and dancing in the craze for ""Rock and Roll."""
124611,1,Yuck,"Although I love Oakenfold, this cd is not very good. The music dates itself and it's very simplistic and generally awful..I tried to get into it without success. The worst."
124627,1,Rosalyn and Terry McMillan Are Two Different Writers!!!,I did not like this book. The plot was too unbelievable and I really did not like any of the characters. I did manage to read the entire book but found it to be quite disappointing. Two thumbs down.
124632,1,Don't buy this colorful piece of junk!,"My son got this for his eighth birthday. First of all, it is not a ""Robot"" by any stretch of the imagination - you can only make it go forwards and backwards - and that very slowly. You have no control over the ""moveable"" arms or head and you can not make it turn or do anything really. Several of the things you build according to the instructions don't do anything except sit there and blink - not all that exciting. It took adult strength to get many of the poorly fitting pieces together. On the larger constructions the gears mesh so badly that most of your limited battery power is sucked up trying to turn them all - and the strain inevitably causes the poorly fitting wheels to fall off. Did anybody bother to ""kid test"" this thing before it wound up at all the ""educational toy"" outlets? I'm guessing not. Well, here is the lesson we learned - even a so-called ""educational toy"" can be a complete rip-off."
124652,1,Edited,"I would suggest everyone pick up the uncut box sets of this series if you are interested in purchasing it. This volume here and all the other single volumes are only the EDITED TOONAMI VERSION - As seen on TV in 2005-2009. If you want the full Naruto experience pick up the season sets, you are getting more episodes for a better price, the original unedited version and you can't go wrong. Otherwise this series is fantastic, just this version of the release I highly do no suggest."
124677,1,From a disappointed skeptic....,"The book was interesting and readable; however, it clearly states that you, on your own, cannot be cured. It requires intervention by professionals (preferably at a clinic) and the details of the treatment appear to be purposely vague. Since there is so little information on this subject available and medical treatment is practically nonexistent, it is certainly better than nothing but do not expect a magic cure."
124682,1,Never order this item...,"A story below,Attn : AMAZON.COMI have just received your refund notification. It's fine with me, but I'd like to know further - why the seller never send me the product ordered. Pls explain to me the whole situation or the result of your investigation. I had waited that silver chain over a month for my daughter. Also I need a sincere apology from the seller and the Amazon.com....Amazon replies to me very poorly - Cannot tell you...etc."
124837,1,Mildly amusing.,"I've ready most, if not all of this series, and this is by far the worst. The writing is now formulaic. Max is sexy as hell, and lazy, and Annie Darling is just....well, darling. Outside of that, the only thing that happens is a convoluted plot, lots of references to other writers, and some good puzzles for the mysterioso. But if you spend much money or time on this little piece of fluff, you deserve the final words in the novel: ""April Fool."""
124898,1,Young Buck Your So Awesome,"Yes!!! One of my favorite cd's to take a nice big dump on, you know when you can't get through a whole album because you cant understand what someone is talking about is just great. Its so hard to listen to this shi t because I don't speak Young Buck too well. Im planning on one day to punch him in his terrible gold teeth, what a ass hole hes 50's bitc h."
124987,1,Very disappointing,"This movie had an incredible amount of potential and the first half makes for one of the scariest movies of the past ten years, brilliantly executed, incredibly creepy - then we get to see the monster and he looks like the dude out of Leprechaun, only taller! Why did we even need to see him in close up at all?!? The scene where he's on the roof of the cop car in the distance framed in the rear window of the kids car was inspired! Then we got to see him in close up and the thrill was gone. DeSalvo has also pinched plenty of set pieces from other movies. There are allusions to Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Birds, Duel, Terminator and the final scene is striaght out of The Silence of the Lambs. This film was incredibly disappointing simply because the first half was so damn good then it copped out."
124995,1,"no frills / no thrills, can barely even remember it...","Jeez, I can't even believe I paid ($) to rent it, yet alone ($) for the tape to put it on, no-scares, no-good scenes, no-nothin'!Just another example of what the last 5 years of movies have to offer not since Blair Witch have audiences been conned so badly. Guess what? movies are the only item you can pay for and never get your money back if you're not satisfied (and they know that)! Through strategic marketing, previews, pre-release ""hype"" and god knows what other good scamming techniques they use, they get the opening weekend they want, laugh at you, make $ and move on.This was so disappointing, I barely remember it!This makes ""Scream 3"" look like a masterpiece! (and that blew, as usual)If you are suffering from INSOMNIA, rent ""Jeepers Creepers"", ""I Know What(..) Last Summer"" and play a double feature .... nighty night"
125136,1,Frontline Causes Seizures,"My dogs have been having seizures on an almost regular monthly basis since they were 4 months old (they are littermates). I only started recently searching about the relationship between Frontline and seizures, and there are SO MANY people whose pets have had seizures from Frontline. Your vet will deny it but there are too many people who have reported it. Sure enough, I realized my dogs were having seizures 1-2 days after each application of the preventative.This product may work well on some dogs, but for mine, the evidence is clear and the Frontline has been causing seizures in my dogs.I'm switching to a gentler, natural brand."
125181,1,Not worth the wait,I waited over 18 months for this book to come into a more reasonable price range. It wasn't worth the money or the wait. The author's work is very poor and he thinks the reader is interested in his every thought and weak comments. How did this book get published? I really believed this book would help me decide Darlie's guilt or innocence and it didn't. I'm still not sure!
125185,1,Broke on first use...,"I've used chain cleaners before, so I was very disappointed when it broke during its first use. It does thoroughly clean the chain, but the clips that hold the lid in place are 'WAY too tight. If you buy one, you may want to relax the wire clips before use. I will replace it with Nashbar's chain cleaner.[...]"

125323,1,This is 2x the price from the prices in Walgreens.,"I was thinking of buying from here but then I thought of checking out the price in Walmart or Walgreens first.Indeed, the price in Walgreens is half of the price here. As of this writing, the Amazon price is $10.69, while the Walgreens price is only $5.00 for a pack of 8."
125349,1,Try another one instead,"We are expecting our first in a few weeks and just bought this glider for it's low price and the fact that it was in stock. We put it together last night and the snaps that attach the fabric were sewn inside out, which made it impossible to attach to the rocker. There was also a huge black stain on the back fabric piece. When I contacted the company, they informed me that the fabric pieces could be replaced by them free of charge, but they are out of stock. They said it may not come in until the end of September or early October before they would ship it. We can't wait that long. We also had problems with a dresser from the same company and are awaiting a replacement door (which has taken several phone calls over several weeks to find out where it is...we are still waiting for that door)"
125350,1,Very low level.,I think this book is intended for people with no programming experience at all. As such it was not very useful to me. Being interested in linguistics and programming for linguist I had a hard time finding real information in this book. I strongly advise not to buy this book.Being a non-native English speaker I apologise for the errors in my writing.
125373,1,beware: unfair and pompous,"I felt this dvd, while very entertaining and informative, made Anton Newcombe look horrible. While he is known to be disruptive, and hard to get along with at times, how does he get people to continue to work with him? He must be doing something right.Do yourself a favor and explore thses two bands yourself. Go to their websites. Listen, for free, to BJM's albums and read what Anton felt about the movie.I found this documentary was way too tipped in the Dandy Warhol's favor, painting them in a nice light, while abandoning Anton's group."
125377,1,"Some neat ideas, but cheap","The problem with this movie is that the plot is so close to a ""Harry Potter""-y movie that you keep comparing it to it. But where ""Harry Potter"" has a great cast of actors in every role, ""Vampire's Assistant"" feels like they got a bunch of third and fourth choices for it. I love John C. Reilly in everything but thought he wasn't right here. The special effects were also pretty bad. You are so accustomed to even terrible movies like ""Golden Compass"" or ""Voyage of the Dawn Treader"" having big ""Avatar""-y effects that when you're doing the same kind of story and it looks like TV, it makes me LOL."
125449,1,Good idea but does not work with ESE pods,"I purchased it with hopes that it would make great espressos with the Illy espresso pods at a great price. Unfortunately, it did not work. It may be a good option if you want to grind your own beans. The issue is 1. you really need to preheat the espressomaker for 30 minutes. 2. The podholder leaks the water when you insert the pod so the espresso is watery.I tried it for 3 weeks and it did not work no matter how much I tightened the podholder. Luckily, Amazon has a great return policy for defective items and I was able to return it. It seems like others who purchased this item had similar problems. It costs more however, I plan to try the Nespresso Citiz next. It's on my wishlist."

125592,1,Awake - Josh Groban,This is the worst CD I have ever purchased from Amazon.com. Five of the songs are not even in English. I am really dissappointed with it and wish I could return it. This is the first time I have made a bad purchase from Amazon.com and feel that I have wasted my money. I just wish I could have listed to excerpts before purchasing. Is it possible to return it for credit?
125621,1,"A pale, antiseptic version of Gould.","I agree with all of the other reviewers who were disappointed by this CD. It's is a prime example of how computers can't really touch the artistry of a human being, at this point in time. I recommend his older recordings, which are lower fidelity but capture the performance of a manic artistic genius.The Zenph computerized piano simply does not capture the correct dynamics, nor does it feel like you're listening to an actual human being playing (obviously because you're not!). All of the warmth, humor, angst, and simple emotion behind Gould's plays is lost entirely here. The sound quality is fine, but what is sound quality without great music to back it up?Not recommended."
125643,1,Family veiwing,"Skating in this film was a real life experience. However, much of the skating was cut from this film so you must enjoy the comedy of the Three Stooges which is entertaining for the kids of all ages."

125694,1,Mirren & Writers,"There are two positives to this movie - the script writers and Helen Mirren.As far as script there were a few more uniquely humorous lines that I was expecting; perhaps totaling about 30% of the spoken lines. So that's a little star.Then there's Helen Mirren's nuanced performance which actually carried the show and that's another little star.OK, ran out of little stars because the rest of the flim was rollercoaster predictable - been there, seen that, done that NY film industry predictable. As usual, appropriately dumbed down for it's target income demographic."
125704,1,Bad fumes,"So the piano is shrink wrapped, and then put in an Amazon-labeled box directly in China; the Amazon logo is distorted. This is obviously what the Chinese factory did for these pianos shipped directly to Amazon from China (mine was number 600 or so of a 1500 piano shipment to Amazon). These have never been aired out, and the fumes are really bad. I wouldn't let my child play with it yesterday when we got it and even today I won't -- the fumes are pretty bad whenever the piano is moved. The sound is metallic, like a cheap xylophone. I expected more, though that may have been unreasonable of me. The label for the keys was loose in my container -- the two tiny pieces of double-sided tape had fallen off in shipment prior to my receipt. If the fumes don't clear soon, I'm going to have to send it back to Amazon. On the plus side, it's pretty heavy, and I'm hopeful that it will be durable."
125717,1,I expected a better product,"I liked these paddles right out of the package. Looked and felt like a pretty good deal. Got them at Christmas time and they have been used a handful of times. We're not thru February yet and the rubbers are peeling off the paddles. I wasn't expecting great quality, but peeling after a few weeks is not acceptable. In the set of four paddles we have only used two of them and they are both peeling. It's not a good value if it is trash this quickly. I guess paying more for better quality might end up being cheaper in this case."
125751,1,Kids's toy!,"Very poorly built unit. Tape deck is ok, cd keeps skipping. So i do not use cd. Lot of flutter with built in speaker. sound is not clear. This unit does come with a lot of features.. cd+g function, if the cd stop skipping, echo, Music out phono plugs. Use this to hook up to reciever to bypass the flutter problem. SINGING MACHINE manufactures better products. Even their entry level units are better."

125833,1,Defective for the 3rd time since 11/2008,"I bought the 1st one in 11/2008. It failed in 02/2009. Belkin sent a replacement but I had to pay to ship the old one back.Installed the replacement on 02/20/2009. It failed on 02/24/2009. After I complained, they sent another one with a call tag so there was no charge to me. Installed it on 03/16/2009.Now the 2nd replacement has failed (05/18/2009). Same problems, running very Hot, loses connection, etc.Submitted a complaint to the Consumer Products Safety Commission. Only a matter of time before one of these causes a fire for someone."
125846,1,DREAD WATCHING THIS,"CLUB DREAD was very disappointing. From the comedy troupe that gave us the hilarious SUPER TROOPERS, it is sad that this is the best they could do on their second outing. To call it a parody of the slasher genre would be an insult to slasher films. Broken Lizard is among the staff at PLEASURE ISLAND. For some reason as killer is on the loose--in between sex and drug jokes.Avoid this movie at all costs the few laughs are not worth the price of admission."
125863,1,"I am a faithfull Mccaffrey reader, but this book is awful.","I have been engrossed in the lives of Anne McCaffery's various characters since I first read Dragon Song at the age of twelve. Fortunately, The Tower and the Hive is not the first book by her that I have read. The book lacks any sense of a cohesive plot and is filled with tedious narratives...I am not sure why I even bothered to finish the entire book!"

I don't know what the MIM candidates at Thunderbird are doing with it because the information in the book sounds almost childish for Graduate students.

125970,1,a real lemon,"My original LitterMaid I got some years ago was a far better product. Although it was noisier, the motor was stronger & it hardly ever stopped working. This model stops all the time, and if I fill it past the first ""fill"" line, not even to the maximum, it still stops all the time. I use premium litter and have followed all the directions. When I emailed the company to complain about it, they emailed me a form letter telling me all the things I need to do to get it to work (which I already do). They couldn't have cared less. I have three cats & started using the first model to save myself time, which it did. I am considering just trashing this one & getting a regular litter box, since I am always cleaning this one by hand anyway. DON'T BUY IT!!"

126054,1,Poor quality sealing envelope,I cannot recommend this product as the alleged Grip-Seal does not work. You will need to use tape to seal this envelope if you don't want the envelope to open up in transit.
126083,1,Bought 2 and both had strain relief cable failure,"After extensive reading of reviews, trying out earbuds in various stores and using a friend's set for a few days on a trial basis, I bought two pair of Monster Turbines for my kids, both of whom are teenagers. Within less than a year, both sets of earbuds failed due to the strain relief on the connector cable. Though they sound great, I cannot suggest that you buy these as they will likely fail within a relatively short period of time. Also, I tried to get through to customer service both on the phone and online and failed to get a response from the company. This is just terrible customer service. Again, the product sounds good but given the awful design and build quality combined with abysmal customer service, I say avoid Monster like the plague."
126099,1,Not very good,"Don't buy it, rent it. The plot sucks but the footage is very good. Matty Liu's whiny voice convinced me to stop using Qtips. Mike Stewart looked hilarious bouncing around on his sponge at Jaws. All other attempts at comedy in this movie were bombs."
126244,1,"Don't Know How, But They Did","Pretty girls in their underwear playing a game of football. Sounds pretty idiot-proof, but somehow the makers screwed this up. I understand this is a pure cheesecake factory, but bringing in former football players as their ""coaches"" and to hear them praise the girls' athleticism during their ""practice sessions"" was taking this just a little too seriously. Come on, get the girls in their underwear and play the game already!"
126261,1,The book equivalent of shovelware,"There were a lot of first generation ASP/Interdev books that were poorly done. I didn't complain about them, because first generation books on a new technology need to be cut some slack. This, however, is a second generation book and it deserves a lot of contempt.This book squanders half of it 623 pages covering the following (non-ASP/Interdev ) topics: VBScript, JavaScript, CSS, and DHTML. This coverage is superficial (mostly a property, event, and method table dump). The reader would be better off getting the full specifications off the web.Unfortunately, the coverage of ASP and Interdev is just as superficial. The author defines the difference between file and machine DSNs in two short inaccurate paragraphs and then keeps referring the reader to that definition as if it was useful.This book consumed several hours without providing any useful information."
126262,1,There is really no concrete examples --- I had to use MSDN,I do not recommend this book at all. Look for other title
126478,1,Of Fosters and Tucks,"Winnie Foster is a 10-year-old girl, almost 11.She is always overly protected by her mother, grandmother, and father. She makes friends with a toad, and tells it that she will run away before next morning. She gets foud by the Tucks. Mae kills the Man in the Yellow Suit, and she goes to jail. She breaks out of jail, and the Tucks are on the run."
126549,1,The perfect couple.,"Sweet Savage Love has all the twisted appeal of one of those R. L. Stein novels for teenagers. The heroine, Virginia Brandon, is such a bubble-headed tease that you want to slap her silly, the way the hero frequently does, which may be why you keep turning the pages. The hero, Steve Morgan, has the morals of an alley cat and little else to recommend him. His one redeeming quality is that he hates Virginia almost as much as you do. Each of them singly is mind-numbingly stupid, and the two of them together are positively Martian. The only sensible thing either one of them does is eat, drink, or sleep -- and even then, they usually screw it up. I think what I love best about this book is that end up married, and never did any couple deserve each other more."
126552,1,OK for light home use but not heavy duty use.,"We purchased two of these racks to use at our charity rummage sales. Unfortunately, they were not as sturdy and durable as they claimed to be. We barely had 100 lbs of clothes on the racks and one of them broke during the first use. One of the bars broke off completely. We were very disappointed in this purchase."
126623,1,"Torture and pain, anyone?","Do you like vivid descriptions of torture? How about a scene where a dog is eating the intestines of a person who has had their belly sliced open? Perhaps you would enjoy genital mutilation descriptions, or the visual images that are painted about boils, the plague, and other diseases?By reading this book you are entering into a world of strict Catholicism, which turns to a world of fanatic Catholicism. Even though the main character breaks many of the rules of her Catholic world, she still describes art with the same religious words. She seems to have been raised in a modern feminist environment, yet claims to be living in the late 1400s. The author seems to be a feminist with an axe to grind, and a Catholic with a lot of mixed feelings about her religion.This book was confusing, painful, ugly, and disappointing."
126710,1,one hot mama,"I've used this product before, but in the capsule form. I thought I was getting a good deal since the health store was so expensive. However, I didn't notice that the online bottle was in tablet form. I'm taking 3 per day where in capsule form all I needed was 1 per day. I've been taking this product for three weeks with some relief, but only if I don't drink alcohol! Not! In the capsule form I had NO hot flashes and I could drink. I'm getting ready to chuck these and do an all out search for capsules on the internet. Otherwise, I'll gladly pay the price at the health store for a good night's sleep and a little fun!"
126725,1,Nothing great day 2,I bought this product once before and took for about a week. I did not notice it helping with sleep. I continued to wake every night. I also don't notice that it calms me down. I just had a screaming match after taking 1 teaspoon in hot water and hour before. Maybe it takes a longer time to notice? I didn't notice anything the last time either but I will continue to take it as I need magnesium.
126788,1,One good thing - its cheap...,"I bought this for a Ryobi ""Cat"" sander (competitor to the Black & Decker ""Mouse"").I have used it on one project - sanding 30ft of baseboards, just to abrade the existing paint (plain 'ol household latex), not sand the wood. I went through 21 pieces of sandpaper. I don't know what they use as the media (grit) on the paper, but it disintegrates in seconds. I spent more time shutting the sander off and changing the paper than I did actually sanding. I would not buy this again. The paper specific to the sander is more than three times the cost, but lasts about 20 times as long - I should have been able to sand all 30 feet with one piece of sandpaper (two at the most).One humorous note (sad, actually), the shipping box, and the sandpaper box both have a large ""USA-1"" logo on them. However, the sandpaper label on the side read ""Made in EU (European Union)"". Originally, I thought it was probably better than ""Made in China"", but now I doubt that."

126919,1,Doesn't Keep You Warm! -____-,"My mom brought me this jacket for Christmas in hot pink since she knows that's my favorite color. I've seen lots of girls wearing them and heard things about it being the best jacket and having an insulator that keeps you warm. I was very disappointed when I put it on and felt how thin this jacket was. I wore it outside in the cold winter as well as the breezy spring now and it has not kept me warm! I've had to wear a jacket underneath it and yet I was still cold, but than again I am cold blooded, but for a $100 plus jacket, it should do what it says and keep a person warm for Gods sake. -__-"
126968,1,A Big Disappointment !,"After hearing his first Motown album (which was outstanding ! ), I anxiously waited for this releaseto hit the stores. Unfortunately, there are few, if any, songs on this album that I really enjoyed listening to. I don't know if it was his song selection, or his musical interpretation, but I simply did not like this album !My advice is to save your money and use it to buy a beerand pizza while you watch the world series tonight !"
127060,1,fair,"Now I see whyUnforgivenand the Eastwood work actor and director since is rightly considered such a renaissance. Heartbreak Ridge encapsluates every negative stereoype about Eastwood that saddled him before 1992 when Unforgiven arrivedEastwood acting is fine here as a hard boiled marine, but the writing is cliche, you could be watching a Chuck Norris flick. The serviceman encounters the hippy and the new gaurd officer, all with predicible sarcasim. So what.Eastwood had done far more nuanced work before--Dirty Harry and a lot of the Leone westerns--and it is disappointing to see the master working so far below his capacity.But also kind of fun. Seeing this now shows you how much Eastwood redefined homself in the 1990s, making morally complex films that define him as one of the best in cinema."
127073,1,Two thumbs down,I hosted a Book Club meeting for Cinco de Mayo and chose this book to go along with the theme. I didn't even make it half way because it didn't hold my interest. No one else in the club did either and so we skipped talking about the book at all.
127075,1,Terrible,"I don't know what body type this hoodie is modeled for, but it sure isn't the average person. I bought this, tried it on, and it clearly didn't fit properly, so I had friends of various sizes try it on as well.This sweater fit no one.It's incredibly huge in the chest area and the arms, is extremely long, and gets narrower toward the bottom.Unless you're literally shaped like a slice of pizza, this hoodie will not fit."
127149,1,Tore quickly,"These shorts tore in the seam between the legs within a few weeks of having bought them. And there really wasn't much use given to them (certainly nothing that would cause a tear). I like Adidas shorts overall, but I can't recommend these."
127198,1,IT SHOWS STUFF THAT DOESN'T EXIST AND IT IS POORLY WRITTEN.,"THE AUTHOR DIDN'T PUT VERY MUCH EFFORT INTO WRITING THIS BOOK. HE SURE DIDN'T DO MUCH ""HOMEWORK"" ON WRITING AND SHOWING HER DISCOGRAPHY. A PERSON WHO WRITES HER SHOULD DO HIS ""HOMEWORK"" BEFORE GETTING A BOOK DEAL TO BE ABLE TO WRITE ABOUT OLIVIA. THANK YOU."
127230,1,Come on Mattel!,"I am all for Barbie, but I have to say, this is the sluttiest doll I've ever seen. I have never been a big fan of Bratz dolls, but I have yet to see a Bratz doll that looks this bad. I think it's sad that Mattel feels they have to make this kind of doll to compete with the sales of other trashy looking dolls. The other My Scene Barbies are cute and cool. This doll is just obscene."
127275,1,An overpriced article,"I was interested in this topic after seeing the author on C-Span. I purchased the book and finished it in about 45 minutes. It really is a long article disguised as a book. Big type, small booklet format, etc. If it had been printed as a book, I doubt it would exeed 50 pages. I somehow fely short-changed.The writing was OK, but styled more like a newspaper article.I suggest you save the money and try to catch the author again on C-Span"
127309,1,I love Almodovar but...,"Typically, I enjoy Almodovar movies very much. I have been a fan since the 80s with Women on the Verge, Labyrinth of Passion, etc. However, I found Talk to Her disturbing, and not in a good way. Almodovar is usually provocative and interrogates social and cultural assumptions to good end. In this case, he misses the mark."
127327,1,Disappointing,"E. Lynn Harris is a terrific writer; however, he should have left well enough alone. Abide With Me at times seemed to be wandering without a point. If you have never read Mr. Harris' books before don't start with Abide With Me because you may never read his other works which are not mediocre."
127376,1,My first and last Scott Turow book,A chore to read. I picked it up to read on a long flight to China. Next time I'll reread something by Steinbeck or Sinclair Lewis. Outcome was predictable from the mid way point. I only finished it because I can't read Chinese and needed to pass time somehow or other
127413,1,"Ridiculous, annoying joke of a film","This silly film is about a clueless family whose life revolves around a sociopathic loser (Charlie) who, in his late twenties, still lives at home loafing and mooching off his parents, acting like an angry 12 year old and driving everyone around him nuts. The only thing that kept me watching to the end was my desire to see Charlie get a long-overdue butt walloping. The turning point of this film, which transformed it from your standard sappy touchy-feely Hollywood melodrama to an unbelievable joke of a film, was when Charlie was allowed to return home EVEN AFTER burning down the family house, facing no consequences but getting roughed up a little by his brother."
127439,1,Almost the worst movie I've ever seen,"Even though I love rock music, and I thought the soundtrack to this movie was excellent, and I thought the acting was admirable, the storyline in Almost Famous is ludicrous and boring. This was an opportunity to make a great, or at least fun, movie about the music and larger than life characters from 1970s rock and roll. Instead, it's a flop. The movie gives us an excellent soundtrack, but we learn nothing about the artists who made that music. It presents us with some interesting characters, but they are not portrayed in any depth. There is some potential in the storyline -- a 15 year old away from home for the first time touring with a rock band -- but the story we are given is boring mishmash about flunkie groupies and shallow, moronic rock stars.How anyone could have watched this movie and liked it is a complete mystery to me."
127451,1,Oldsmobile 4-4-2 and W-Machine: Restoration Guide,"This book is not a restoration guide, it's more of a highlights book with pictures. More effort could have been put into this book with more detail."
127465,1,Sent me an OLD EDITION,I searched for this text book using ISBN that the school gave me. I realized once I go to class that this was 2 editions old!!! It would have been nice to know that it was an out of date edition.
127547,1,Not Really Worth It,"Someone else wrote ""Bleck"" in a review...I couldn't have said it better. For a book that both moved relatively quickly and generally kept my interest, I couldn't help but finish it a feel like having wasted my time. The first chapter alone is full of inconsistencies and then shortly thereafter the main ""hero"" gets ""innocent"" Caro into bed by getting her drunk. Great. I can't believe that I could actually like nearly all the characters except the main two. Even if steamy romance is your thing, this wasn't worth the read."
127549,1,Alpha Hero to the max....,"Wow, alpha hero to the max.... Be forewarned: unless you like your heroes controlling, paternalistic, mercurial, and infuriating, and your heroines vacillating, childish, and amnesiacs, this isn't the book for you. Caroline is sadly dated. Alec exudes waves of possessive vibes, so even while he's enjoying an affair with another woman, he interferes with any interest Caro shows in anyone else; meanwhile, she's not able to become very interested because of the massive depression that hits her any time she's without him. He takes advantage of her while she's in a very vulnerable place, then treats her like the most stereotypical succubus/temptress who's trying to manipulate and control him.Honestly, if it weren't for the publication date, I'd have thought this was another Twilight fanfic that made it through the publishing house. You could swap out the names, and it would fit perfectly.(Cross-posted to Goodreads)"
127591,1,Not as shown,"I wanted the product as shown. It was not, I feel what I got to be inferior to what I thought I was getting."
127603,1,Nothing new here.,"Written for someone who knows absolutely nothing about extroversion/introversion. Way too much talk about extroverts. I didn't see any ""advantage"" for introverts here. Incredibly boring. I recommend ""Party of One: The Loner's Manifesto"" instead."
127632,1,Too stylized for my taste,"I might like this music better in a live performance, but on disc I find it rather grating. The performers seem bent on creating effects--""let's turn those old tunes on their heads."" I think those old tunes have a traditional loveliness and was hoping that these skilled artists could enahnce them even further. Different tastes, I guess."
127649,1,"Green Turd, New York","It is a common practice by noted reviewers and film sycophants to drool over a badly muddled movie in order to exhibit their grasp of universal wisdom compared to the unwashed masses.Ths mess and waste of fine actors is metaphorically akin to the Russian Matryoshka dolls - a set of elaborately decorated hollow wood figurines of decreasing sizes nested one inside the other. The last and smallest doll should be the ultimate prize, but in Synecdoche, New York it turns out to be a green turd (don't ask).I have loved the originality, cleverness, and humor of previous Charlie Kaufman scripts, so why not admit a valiant try and a not-so-admirable failure?A well-regarded critic suggested that multiple viewings are required to comprehend this misbegotten ""masterpiece"". If your dentist suggest multiple root canals to save one rotten tooth, you are better off yanking it."
127684,1,"AVOID!!! Worked once. Since then just cold, slightly colored water.","AVOID!!! We bought this machine because it looked great, and figured for the price it must be high quality and expected years of good service. It worked ONCE...only ONCE. Since then, despite multiple attempts, it has only produced cold, slightly colored water. AVOID. I feel so ripped off....especially for the price. I was expecting years of service. At least my cheap one from Walmart a lasted several years."
127688,1,"Hopefully, teen comedy gets no more tedious than this","Teen comedy has become much of a hit-and-miss proposition, but this really takes the miss factor to a new level, making me miss the likes of SHE'S ALL THAT. The gags here are rarely funny, just mostly tedious and/or cruel. For those of us who had any school social difficulties, it's just hard to watch, with virtually no reward for hanging in. Hopefully NOT the wave of the future!"
127698,1,Poor Quality Control,"I'm afraid I wasn't able to judge the annoying alarm for myself, as the delivered unit had a cracked and crumbling case (the bottom is plastic), which was obviously done at the factory as the box and even the styrofoam was intact. The replacement unit just arrived, and has a broken temperature knob, again with no outside damage. So I'm sitting this one out and looking for another brand. Quality control counts, especially for an electrical product you'll expect to use for decades. Sorry Villaware, but I just can't trust it."
127707,1,Rollerball review,"Never buy a movie, just because someone else liked it. James Cahn never could act."
127772,1,One slight problem,"Looks great, solid construction, powerful...everything I wanted with one slight problem.The wand has an electrical plug at each end - one for the power head and one for the handle and they both should be on the same side of the wand BUT the one I got has one on each side of the tube. That means I'd either have to have the powerhead upside down or the handle upside down. Called the phone # Hoover recommends and talked with a very nice person who tried to duplicate my problem and finally decided I'd have to take it in for repair. Repair? it's brand new. Nearest Hoover approved person is an hour and half away and when I called they said 2 weeks because they outsource repairs and they would drive it 6 hours further. Now I'm wondering if I can somehow get it back in the original box, etc. etc. etc. If I could use the vacuum it might have received 5 stars but now?"
127800,1,"""AVENGE MEEEE! ""","The fact that this ludicrous film was made without a hint of irony is what makes it so hilarious. Favorite scenes: a) the shot of the ""They can take my gun when they pry it from my dead, cold fingers"" bumpersticker, then the pan down to the Russian soldier prying it from an American's cold, dead fingers. Awesome! b) when the boys visit their pop Harry Dean Stanton at the ""re-education"" camp. Swayze drawls, ""Dad...Ah luv ewww!"" and macho Harry Dean says, ""don't ever cry again as long as you live...AVENGE ME!"" c)Swayze intones gravely, ""Don't cry...let it turn to something else...none of us will ever get to go home again, ever."" What? When the war ends, go home! And why the hell would a huge army division occupy a little town that doesn't seem to have any strategic value whatsoever? How many troops did they have? A million? There's much absurdity to laugh at in this one."
127843,1,I Hate this book!,"I bought this book because I thought it would be funny but I had no idea it was primarily political, conservative views thinly disguised as humor. I think I found most offensive the strips where the coyote pup tells the young human girl that they can now get married because of the MA Supreme Court ruling allowing gay marriage; hardly a fair comparison to equate marriage between an animal and a child to marriage between two adults of the same sex! This book is more of the same all the way through; pro Bush, pro conservative religion, pro war. I'm sorry I wasted my money on it. It isn't even funny, just irritating and offensive. My copy went into the trash."
127894,1,King solomons mines 1937,I don't think the Allan Quartermain in this movie is the real one. It must be his evil twin Alex Quartermain. He even has black makeup under his eyes just like Spencer Tracy when he played Mr. Hyde
127987,1,Would be good if...,"That guy would stop screaming along with the lyrics. The songs are good, the main vocalist is good...the music itself is great, but the backup singer who sounds like the white cap at a kegger who's trying to sing metallica just HAS to go...or clear his throat. Makes this all but unlistenable, which is a shame."
128014,1,"Great Special Effects, Not So Great Story","The special effects in this latest offering to sci-fi fans are certainly up to snuff, and the artwork is also remarkable in this big screen adaptation of the popular computer game and books. Being a fan of the Wing Commander series of books however, I was more than a little disappointed that so little effort was made to stick to the established story lines. Granted it was interesting to see young Christopher Blair's first deployment (seeing as he's one of the great heroes of the whole story), but it was ruined by the whole Pilgrim angle on the story line. In addition, screwing up the character of James Taggart (aka 'Paladin') did nothing to aid the progress of the plot. All in all, not to bad for those not already familiar with the established story line, but a lukewarm offering to fans of the game and the books."
128016,1,"Rent it, don't buy it","It's easy to tell why this movie didn't last long in the theatres. You can't really blame it on the acting, as the script gives them little to work with. The special effects aren't fully realized and the film doesn't even make good use of of the 5.1 channels of Dolby Digital sound available to it (which can often make an average theatrical performer into a good home theatre flick).Readers of the Windg Commander novels are likely to be disappointed with the story line, and players of the Origen games would probably like to see more (and better) special effects. The included movie trailer and two TV commercials actually cover most of the best effects in the film.Buy it if you're a hard core Science fiction flick fan (or a teenage girl in love with Freddie Prinz, Jr.) But it is more of a watch it once and toss it back on the shelve, kind of product."
128033,1,NOT ALL THAT!!,"I listen to this album and was unimpressed. It was filled with sickening ballads that made you just want to hurl! Don't get me wrong, i liked ""my heart will go on"" which was obviously a hit because of the movie ""titanic"". I like celine but, i was not happy with this one. Maybe next time!"
128043,1,CAN WE PLEASE REVIEW THE PRODUCT!!,"I'M REALLY GETTING SICK AND TIRED OF HEARING 10-14 YEAR-OLDSMYSCENE AND BRATZ FANS FIGHTING ABOUT WHICH DOLL SUCKS!!

I RECCOMEND GETTING A DIFFERENT MYSCENE DOLL LIKE THEMYSCENE ""FAB FACES"" LINE.MATTEL SHOULD THINKING MORE ABOUT FAMILIES THAN MONEY MAKING!!- *~*A MYSCENE AND BRATZ FAN*~*"
128052,1,not much substantive,"Agreeing with the other low-rating reviewers: this film does not give you much more than you already know. The images are nice at the beginning, but they don't take you into any new or deeper way of thinking about the material. I'd recommend others first -- Blue Gold, for instance."
128100,1,not up to par,"Was excited to see new English mystery and with Diana Riggs, well when I put DVD in and started watching the excitement faded fast.There isnt any chemistry between the main characters and the story is hard to follow - I have read the books and they did not do the books any justice with this DVD"
128106,1,Scrapbook Plus,I brought the software beleiving that it would help me with my scrapbooking. It has very limited graphics and templates to workwith. I would not recomend this software package. Also the journaling sucks as well. Even when you start a product from scratch the software isn't user friendly with very little guidence. As stated before 1 star is to much.
128169,1,Boring and plotless,"I read this book when it first came out, and I read it again recently and it doesn't get any better as I age. It is boring and has no plot. Oh and someone should tell Ms Rice the word is spelled ""Muslim"", not ""Moslem""."
128257,1,MumboJumbo,"I agree with Time Magazine. The theory of staying in the Now is very good, but I believe the author was trying to hard to ""write a book"", which should have stayed an essay."
128316,1,It appears he found the world to be quite boring...,"I have tried on several occasions to read this book. I have a problem with deliniating Duffy's style from his technique. Duffy's novel seems Proustian, but I'm not sure if his usage of long-winded and overly ruminative passages is his own style or a technique he intentionally employs to depict a trait he associates with philosophers. This aside, I thought the plotline of the novel was almost without significant incident which seemed remarkable to me since their respective biographies of Wittgenstein and Russell are fascinating. Wittgenstein and Russell were vibrant and tremendously interesting men, but this novel nearly succeeds in portraying them as stodgy and completely self-absorbed beings."
128405,1,Not Much,"Every year prooduces a breakout memoir -- this year it's ""The Glass Castle."" Intriged by all the much hyped press about the book, I bought a used copy here on Amazon. I imagine the reason this book has gained so much attention is the author's ties to the press which has given her access to instant promotion. The book itself is written in a straight forward narrative style that comes off as a long magazine article. Little to no insight or reflection into the chaos and dysfunction of her family life is made by Walls nor does she ever explain how it exactly impacted her forming consciousness. ""Mama is manic, Daddy is drunk and we are moving again"" seems to be the repetitive theme. The stories of her childhood events lack drama, tension and humor. Where any childs loss of innocence at the hands of CRAZY adults is humanities greatest shame, this book comes up way short in providing the reader with any constructive insight."
128485,1,Don't waste your time,This book is not very good and it doesn't have any good baby names in it. It's lame.
128510,1,Digital Concepts telephoto lens review,"I was very disappointed with the quality of the pictures using the lens on my Sony H2 camera. At full telephoto length, the pictures have a lighted haze around the image at the center of the picture. I have tried experimenting somewhat, but have been unable to eliminate the ""haze"" from teh pictures. I do wonder if it could possibly be due to the Sony telephoto lens being a 1.7X while this is a 2X lens and the telephoto setting on the camera may be set to the 1.7X range as it seems less of a problem with less than full telephoto range pictures."
128521,1,Unsound,"The diet recommended for me by this book practically guarantees either heart disease or cancer according to all leading authorities on nutrition. An interesting concept, but for pure entertainment only."
128540,1,So what's new?,"I found it boring and depressing. Politics as usual. This is nothing new ya know.The people who have governed this country (heck!, the world) from the getgo have all been like this. It was just kept under wraps better. Too many leakers, climbers and journalists these days."
128571,1,Not my cup of tea,"Ive read many romance books plenty with bondage, spanking, and whips and chain... But I read to chapter 3 and stopped. Definatly not my thing.. And I edit gay and ménage romance books for a living. I found the spanking and publics nudity a little off setting but when the price let a old man fondle her in public while she just about cried I decided to return the book.. I men it was almost border line rape... But I didn't finish the book so manybe it got better but I can't image hours Of reading about beauty crying and getting spanked."
128609,1,It all went downhill from here,"This is where you see how this new so called director lost everything that appealed to the dark knight, making it a complete joke and disapointment for the fans and for the ppl who loved the first two series. It's no worse than 'Batman & Robin' (Yet again what is?) but it's still not something to watch, worst own or rent. Altho Val Kilmer still tried keeping its cool like Keaton, the original Batman, it doesn't mean it's average. Indeed it has a great cast like all Batman movies but literally it's junk. Do not get this, it will make the direcotr feel like he did a decent job which he obviously didn't. Besides this, stay away from 'Batman & Robin' please!Thank you."
128615,1,An insult to Bat - Fans!,"The ridler only tells one riddle. Two-face has only one personality. This movie is just a reminder of how superior the FOX cartoon series of ""Batman"" is to this empty-headed junk. On a daily basis, the cartoon series has ten-times better writing than this overbudgeted drivel."
128628,1,Sony Bravia Television break after one year,DO NOT BUY A SONY BRAVIA TELEVISION. They work for one year and then break. They then try to upsell you on a new television when you call to get a repair.
128645,1,Poorly cast,"This recording is poorly cast. In particular, Deborah Voigt doesn't even have sufficient voice for Isolde. For a decent portrayal of the part, one must look to Jane Eaglen instead.The other roles are merely adequatedly taken, and the orchestral playing is unexceptional."
128711,1,Poor writing,"After reading Anne Rice ""Beauty"" series and then trying to switch to her ""mainline"" novels, I was dissapointed to find that the poor writing style that I found in ""Beauty"" was also found in the rest of her novels. I thought the stilted, mundane, elemenatary sytle of Beauty was unique to erotica and was a result of trying to make hardcore sex fascinating, but I found the same pendantic, non-literary style to be found in the rest of her novels. Anne Rice is all plot and not style. She approaches fascinating and erotic subjects with pedantic and stilted phrasing. ... I keep waiting for the literary style that the promos, books sales, and movies promise. It aint's there. Basicallly, Anne Rice is soft porn with no literary style. Any good romance writer could do as well. Rice just sucks people in with gore."
128717,1,Sucks!,"This movie was really LAME!!!A waste of money. I love these types of movies, but this was really bad... Only plus was the hot chick....Save your money!!!!!"
128766,1,Very disappointed,"As a member of A.A., I simply will not buy a book written by another member that so flagrantly breaks the most important tradition of the society he purports to embrace. I hope Willard Scott will reconsider his decision to break his anonymity at the public level. Not only will any future slip of his hurt A.A., but he has set a precedent for any future celebrity, not all of whom will remain sober after they disclose their membership. I heard Scott's C-SPAN interview, and he seems to claim a disingenuous ignorance about this important A.A. tradition, a tradition that all newcomers to A.A. are immediately and thoroughly taught. Scott says he wants to help others; he may want to. But A.A. will help more people than any individual can, and he jeopardizes A.A. by publicly announcing his membership."
128795,1,"terrible, wasteful container",I found this eye cream to be only OK as compared with other total effects products which I use regularly (daily moisturizer and night cream I give 5 stars). What I really do not like is the little bottle. When the bottle stopped pumping I thought the cream had run out very quickly. It turned out there was still plenty of cream in the bottle. I had to pound the bottle on the counter to make the cream drop to the bottom so the pump pumped. That worked for a while. When it stopped pumping again and sooner than I expected I got out a serrated knife and cut open the little bottle and there was at least 1/4 to 1/3 of the cream left in the bottle. Kind of a clever way to get you to buy the cream sooner than when it really runs out. I no longer buy this cream.
128820,1,Good way to ruin your pans.,"I found this book on a friend's shelf, and picked it up to look for a simple recipe I could try, to find out if the book was worth buying. I was puzzled by references in each recipe to ""save the juices for deglazing the pan"". Deglazing?Well. I looked up to the front of the book, and found that, by ""deglazing"", she meant ""softening up the fat and juice burnt onto the pan to the point where you might be able to scrape it off"". So, basically, her simple cooking technique means you move your time investment from cooking time to cleaning time. Not a win in my book: cooking is fun; cleaning is dull. :-)"
128837,1,Do not buy this product for the Super Nintendo,"Unfortunately for me, I thought this would be a actual SNES AC Adaptor, however it is a 3-in-1 that leads to horrible color distortion when using it for the SNES. Large bars of incorrect hue slowly cycle down the screen which for me renders the games unplayable."
128930,1,A spastic GPS,"The best thing about the Magellean 3000T is the large screen.Sometimes this gadget works like a charm--other times it just seems to pay no attention. Actually, the touch screen function decides not to work. You can sit there and touch, rub, hammer; to no avail. I got tired of the whole process and was ready to send it back to Amazon. First, I called Magellan's help line (the phone number was hard to find); apparently you go to the diagonostic page and touch each touchscreen icon. If you hear a click, it's okay. Finally it works most of the time. Damn bunch of trouble and frustration for a machine designed to reduce trouble and frustration."
128978,1,Not good quality,"I do not recommend this flatware. I was looking for an inexpensive everyday set, but this one did not hold up well. The fork tines got bent very quickly (don't you hate that?), and the stainless steel parts separated from the plastic handles so that the forks (in particular) wobbled. You can find better, for cheaper."
129067,1,Not worth ther money,Pj's are very think and you can see thought them. Have to wear socks and gloves to protect the material for nicks. Will not buy vanity fair again and will return the pair I bought.
129077,1,Don't buy it!,"I purchased two M250's for my children. Both kids commented on how cumbersome the operating software was but appreciated having a reasonable-priced MP3 player-- until *both* units failed within six months of purchase! We contacted Sansa customer support when the first one died, and they informed us that they would send a replacement out as it was under warranty. SIX WEEKS after Sansa acknowledged receiving the defective unit, they claimed that the RMA authorization had lapsed (we sent the unit in promptly). Caveat emptor-- if this unit seems inexpensive, it's because it is flimsy and badly supported. Buy an Ipod or *anything* other than a Sansa. My three year old Rio S35 has been a more reliable performer than these M250's. Run, don't walk, from these units, if our experience with their reliability or customer support is any indication."
129093,1,pos died after 7 mths,"i bought it from amazon, in the process to see if the seller would warranty this. Bought it in 11/1/2010 and just found out this is a 2006 model ha ha, no warranty thru clarion. installed it in my glove box on my rhino and 7 mths later just quit working. you decide"
129191,1,The blair witch project,"Is 1 star your lowest rating? shame! This is the biggest lot of hiped up trash I've ever had the misfortune to sit through. I don't normally spend good money to watch the likes of this, my 8 year old can manage the same quality on our camera. This is my preferred genre and it could make me take another look at Daniel Steel (if thats how you spell it)."
129192,1,"I wish I could give it ""0"" stars","This was one of the worst movies I have ever seen, period! It is said that $40,000 was spent on this movie but I cannot even see how they spent that much. For those with a queasy sense of balance you should also steer clear of this movie since it will make you nauseous. This movie is NOT scary. It is horribly acted and the poor sound makes it difficult to understand what is being said. I must say the idea behind the movie was interesting but the execution was awful. Please do not waste your money on this ""hype project"" as you will be sorely disappointed. I wish I could have my $8.50 back (plus my date's ticket for another $8.50 and she almost vomited from the bloody camera shaking). In any case, you have been warned against this waste of celluloid."
129198,1,"Overrated, disappointing, yet it could have been great!","The concept behind this movie was basically raw is better, and raw leads to realism. This movie was filmed with a not-so-professional camera in order to add a natural, uncontrived feel. This would have worked if the script were a little more developed. Natural is not cursing every two seconds. I mean they couldn't say a sentence without throwing in about five curses and blaming each other for being lost. There were a few suspenseful parts, especially the end but for the most part the horror was lacking. They tried to go for the whole mental breakdown thing, but it did not succeed. Great idea, however this overrated flop only attempts to scare you with it's colorful language."
129217,1,Good premise for a low-budget film...that is all,"The movie is about three college students who disappeared while filming a documentary about a legendary witch. By showing only this ""documentary"", we have a clever way to employ cheap cinematography in a potentially good movie.While the actors put forth a good effort, the acting was still at a level that was distracting. Suspension of disbelief was therefore impossible. The three main characters were not distinct, having similar speech patterns and temperament. They could not evoke sympathy.A more refined plot could have also helped."
129247,1,Don't judge Hornby by this book alone,I'd hate to think that this could be someone's first time reading a book by Nick Hornby because I doubt they would give his other much better books a chance. For about 3/4 of the book I just felt annoyed at all of the characters. Do yourself a favor and check out Fever Pitch or High Fidelity instead.
129250,1,Avoid at all costs!,"This is the most insidious kind of bad book - one that comes from an author with a proven track record of excellence, that starts off wonderfully - but then mires itself in pointlessness and bad writing. I kept reading, hoping it would recover, but instead became increasingly annoyed by Hornby's insult to his readers' intelligence. If this was by a first-time writer it would never have been published. Don't waste your time."
129260,1,Exciting?,"I borrowed this ebook from the library thinking it had action, adventure and two lovers finding their way back to each other. Maybe the book just starts slow but I got to page 117 and the only action is Merlyn faking his death.Ysabella goes on and on, repeatedly, about how terrible Merlyn is, how he tricked her. Her reason for leaving him revolves around how pious she is but she makes the most of her reputation as a witch. At this point in the book she is not a very likable character and I can't bring myself to listen or read more.I think I could really like Merlyn for all that he is a deceitful devil. I want to know more about his side of things instead of the constant harping from her.The action has to increase as the plot moves on but waiting well over a third of the book is too long for me."
129279,1,up a road slowly,the book was really long and stupid. we were forced to read it our reading teacher mrs.K has every class ervery year read this borring snoozathon.
129310,1,Cashing in on Jerry,"This is one of the most insulting books that I have ever read in my life. To think that Bob's sis would dare cash in on Jerry's name for a few bucks is absotively despicable. The book itself is nothing but new age garbage with little respect for the common sense of the reader, whom I'm sure Wendy thinks are little 14 year old fashion hippies that couldn't form their own opinion to save Jerry's soul. Hey, I'm a spiritual cat too, but I don't claim to be able to channel the spirit of Jerry Garcia. I don't care if you're his soul mate, I don't buy it, literally and you shouldn't buy it financially. It disgusts me to think how many family members or wannabe family members are making money off of all these Jerry books and songs and God knows what else. I can't wait till this stuff dies down and we're back to an underground thing again. Jeez!"
129375,1,A real piece of garbage,"What a disgrace to John Carpenter. The original ""Halloween"" was the greatest horror movie ever made. How could this stupid, unimaginative, confusing mess be allowed to share the name ""Halloween""? Who is responsible for this travesty of taste? Who wrote this story, a first grader? This movie has the dumbest ending I have ever seen. How could this terrible movie have made it into theatres? Doesn't someone screen movies? Someone needs to be held accountable for this and needs to be punished very severely."
129382,1,Horrible Sequel,Before Dimension got smart with their horror movies they tried to reive the Halloween franchise. Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers was an already dead horror franchise. The cast here is horrible and the deciison to kill of the charcter of Jamie was stupid. The film does have some decent kills but it lacks some good old fashioned T&A and the plot was all over the place. Skip this one.
129436,1,Great Lakes Wildlife,"This is not a BOOK but a fold over, laminated pamplet. Contains a page on invertebrates pictures, 2 pages on fishes, 1 page on reptiles and amphibians, 3 on birds and 3 on mammals. The scientific name and the size of the animal is all the information that is listed. I was expecting some descripton that would help distinguish an organism from other similar ones. I was surprised that neither the carp nor the alewife was included."
129484,1,Listening to this CD,"...is like looking into the face of God and having him tell you,""You are my most wonderful creation."" Hands down, the crooning mulleteer's masterwork is this album. The way he belts out ""When a Man Loves a Woman"" undoubtedly has Marvin Gaye crying in his grave wondering why he ever attempted this thing called ""singing"". Leave it to the real McCoy there Marvin! And that goes for you too Mr. Green, it's a real shame that people like Michael have to make you look this bad. Michael, if your out there and reading this I want you to know...I can feel your manliness penetrating my every orifice when you sing. People sometimes ask me if I believe in heaven and if I'm going to go there when I die and you know what I tell them? ""The day I put this CD on I realized that I was already there!"" Get hip to the Boltman people!"
129496,1,Skip this one and move on to the rest,"This has got to be the worst of all the sick and twisted tapes. The quality isn't as good, the cartoons are not as good and it doesn't cost any less. Save your money and buy one of the later ones. Of course, if you have em all and just need this one to complete your collection, don't expect the laughs you got from the latter ones."
129533,1,Logical Nonsense,This game is far inferior to the magical journey one. Had lots of trouble loading and then 2 of the areas you have to go through would not work properly. I gave up.
129590,1,Waste of time,"What a dog. Germans may be able to make cars but not movies. Fortunately this was just a free blockbuster rental. Why the low rating?Basic plot line- Good girl running from bad people/ one bad person who refuses to stay dead. Spoiler Alert: It seems like 90% of the movie is her hiking up one sand dune and down the other. Last 5 minutes of the film, girl chooses to end her life so the universe can collapse in on itself and start again. No plot, No acting,No good CGA either. The other 2 reviewers must have been snoozing to give it 5 stars. Instead of wasting your time and money on this movie visit kiva org and provide a small micro-loan to a 3rd world needy someone. :-)"
129592,1,Handle on lid broke,The handle on the lid broke off after a year of only occasional use; perhaps five times. There is no replacement part available. Stay away.
129660,1,Ambrose did a better job in Band of Brothers,"I am going to buck the system and not give any of the ""Children of the Promise"" books more than 2 stars.I had just finished reading, and watching, Stephen A. Ambrose's ""Band of Brothers"" when I picked up the Children of the Promise series and started reading it. I didn't care for it, but I kept reading it. I found the novels had a lot in common with Band of Brothers.Latter Day Saints (and I am one of them) seem to have a real issue with originality. Unfortunately we seem to have a hard time finding our nitch and what we should be producing artistically. ""Children of the Promise"" doesn't flip the bill.Much of the conflict in the stories seems forced, most of the characters in the story aren't characters most of us would care about, and the family patriarch needs a perscription of Zoloft.Just because Dean Hughes is LDS, it doesn't mean the rest of us LDS folks need to automatically assign him 5 stars for a work that is not to original."
129672,1,Why does God need a starship?,"The final chapter in the ""RAMA Saga"" ends with a whimper, and not the beautiful kind that Yeats spoke of. Instead, it ends with revelations that lift ideas from Clarke's short stories.I suppose this isn't such a sin since Clarke himself lifted entire sections of some novels out of his short stories. For instance, Clarke reproduced his short story ""Meeting with Medusa"" almost verbatium as a chapter in 2010: Odyssey Two. So, I'll forgive it.However, the final revelation is not much more than another red herring, another rabbit hole with rabbit holes. It doesn't help that huge sections of the novel are simply characters standing around and being told the ""HISTORY AND MEANING OF EVERYTHING."" It lacks any wit or wonder."
129698,1,"""Satin finish"" is terrible","The satin finish wore of after I wore it a few times. should of taken it off when I worked around the house. It got chipped up pretty bad, not very durable."
129735,1,Hysterical Romance,"If you are in to ""Bodice Rippers"" this is a good example, and you will probably love in even though it does not take place in the Highlands or on a pritate ship. Hero says I love you in the last 10 pages after brutal treatment which begins with his actually ripping her dress. We'd call this ABUSE. Why should a time period change the facts. Why would he suddenly do a turn around with no real character build up to make you believe it. As for the heroine, the 'oh dear, I'm just a sex slave and I can't do anything about it', is extremely trite even for bodice rippers."
129757,1,Not very good.,"This reads like a quick attempt to cash in on the X-FILES. There is nothing here that hasn't been done before, and been done better. The author pulls out all the usual suspects -- Area 51, captured alien craft, government cover-up -- nothing we haven't seen before. It's the kind of stuff X-FILES did in its first season (five years ago!) No real point in reading this one, I see why it went straight to paperback."
129801,1,Inaccurate,"This book is not only unremittingly malicious in tone,but well known as being inaccurate, sloppily put together,and a book whose author clearly had an agenda in depictingPaley as some kind of monster of evil. A bad book thatleaves you feeling bad."
129802,1,"Poor Quality, Never Worked","Purchased this toy despite the mixed reviews. In hindsight, I should have been more cautious. The gun did not work at all, so it could not be played even once. Workmanship is shoddy and cheap. The toy was manufactured in China; there is no manufacturer contact at all on the box or the instruction sheet so there is no way to obtain replacement parts if one part does not work. Amazon issued a refund very promptly, but it still doesn't fix my kids' disappointment about their favorite Christmas present not working."
129821,1,depressing,"I found this one even more depressing than book one. I have always said a good book will never let you down, this one is and did. I also read the authors interview, and did not care for his attitude toward his readers. I would recommend this book only to masochists."
129857,1,Ink runs out!,"We have had very good results with the photos that printed. However, the ink cartridge runs out before printing all 40 of the blanks that are included in the kit. We now have a total of 48 blanks with no ink!"
129862,1,Forget it!!!!,"What Women Don't Know (and Men Don't Tell You): The Unspoken Rules of Finding Lasting LoveDear Ladies!!Please trust me and don't waste money on this religious piece of crap!!!This book should be call what women don't know/God answers lol lol.The book will not answer any of your questions,because the only thing the author is talking about is God,Adam and Eve and Jesus!!"
129895,1,Terrible Book!,"This is probably the worst book I have ever read. Granted the topic can be very vague and confusing at time, the author makes little attempt tp explain adequately the concepts.Would highly recommend NOT getting this book!"
129899,1,Not enjoyable,"I'm not entirely sure why I bought this book in the first place...maybe because I recently read a rather enjoyable book my Shirley Damsgaard that had to do with witches...but this is not my typical type of reading...and this book did not change my mind. The characters are annoying and silly, the plot strange and the witchcraft/mysticism stuff aggravating. If you like mysteries that dabble in the occult, I would recommend Damsgaard, but NOT Goldring. I didn't even finish this book...it was so annoying that I didn't even care ""whodunit""...and usually I at least read the end of a mystery I don't plan to finish. I think I will go back to my traditional cozy mysteries."
129974,1,Burns On Both Arms,"I like one of the previous reviewers received serious burns on both arms, also bled from one. Both arms are now medicated and wrapped with a sterile bandage."
129982,1,Buy an Ergo!!!!,This was not what I thought it would be- I should have done my research first and went straight for my Ergo--- which I love!
130023,1,Maybe Next Time Bey,"i expected more from bey with this album, all the songs sound the same, shes doing a lot of yelling on almost every song and theres no balance whatsoever. maybe next time bey, i know you can do a lot better than this."
130043,1,save your money,"$62.00 item worked 20 minutes. cost $30.00 to ship for repairs and back. they said nothing worng, get pro installation. worked fine for 1 hour, then all controls lock up again. the only way to gain control is to remove the face plate and reintall. touch the volume control and it locked up again. Sorry that is not an installation problem. They are not worth fixing, and tech support refuses to take responsibility for an inferior product."
130221,1,An Okay First Attempt,"I was really intrigued when I read the first review of this book. It sounded mysterious and juicy and interesting. And then I read it. I got half way through it and didn't want to pick it back up. The main character was annoying. I couldn't like her. I couldn't get involved with her plight. In fact, I wanted to read more about the other minor characters. They were much more interesting. Unfortunately, I had to finish reading this book for my book club. Otherwise, I probably would have just put it down and never finished it. By the way, none of the members of the club really liked this book either."
130247,1,"An uncritical mixture of truth, falsehood, and anecdotes",Here is an example of the author's gullibility. She repeats without comment the Soviet claim that a piece of espionage equipment they found had a US Government ownership label on it. It is standard practice in all of the intelligence agencies in the world to remove identifying labels from items they are going to leave in other countries.
130337,1,A seriously flawed treatment of the Holocaust.,"Although Goldhagen certainly did plenty of research, his argument is certainly *not* a new one: it was, in fact, a central point in the German ""historians' conflict"" which, though still unresolved, raged in the mid-1980s. Furthermore, Goldhagen commits a social science cardinal sin: his argument is completely circular. He uses his dependent variable (the murderous acts of Holocaust participants) to prove his independent variable (eliminationist anti-semitism). Lastly, the first customer comment COMPLETELY misses the entire point Goldhagen is trying to make. His claim is that Germans were active and eager participants and were not passive by any definition of the word"
130340,1,trash dressedup as research,"every single serious holocaust or nazi germany scholar on all sides of the quetsion agree at the incredibly illogical and un-academic research and conclusions put into this book.i read several chapters and wondered whether the author had (a) ever taken a course in logic or critical thinking (b) had studied the history of Nazi Germany and took any notes at all (c) or had indeed studied to any extent european history. defining modern germany primarily by anti-semitism begets the question of why germany's jews were very comfortably german ? that the anti-semitic parties were for decades upon decade a fringe group ? why the famous SD reports on the german populace repeatedly warned the regime that the acts against the jews had to be kept hidden, etc\ etc\ etc. It is sad that someone would publish this book, it is exactly this type of politically correct scholarship that it is ""dumbing"" down this nation."
130360,1,Ugh. His worst one yet.,"I somewhat enjoy Cohen's movies. His movies are kind of like watching a train wreck: don't really want to watch but can't look away. This one, however, wasn't even mildly entertaining to me. I was downright bored. My boyfriend, for whom we ordered it on Prime, didn't like it much either."
130366,1,"Review of ""The Dictator""","As a fan of the last Cohen project I was eager to see this movie. Unfortunately I was very disappointed. As expected with this genre and director, there were several genuinely funny scenes. However to much emphasis and time was given to silly, sophmoric and, indeed, middle school humor. Big waste of time and money."
130472,1,Disapointing,"I've enjoyed Citizen Copes two previous discs but found this one to be repeatitive to the point of irritation (particularly on Friendly Fire, Brother Lee & 107) It isn't until at track 10 when Awe kicks in that there is any spark; followed by the beautiful but too brief Left For Dead ... but by then its the close of the disc leaving a feeling it's all been too late."
130552,1,Holmes Tower Fan Is Ok,"While it looks ok I was pretty dissapointed. It does not have enough power, even on high I don't think it blows enough to cool off a room. Amazon was cool enough though to accept my return and pay for return shipping."
130628,1,Disappointed,This was a so-so movie but a really crappy read. Wish I'd never started it much less finished it. Never again.
130637,1,Is it over yet?,"Horrid! The dumbest, most boring story I've ever tried to slog through. To make matters worse, some crazed loon made mental notes in the margins, lengthening the time it took me to get through this pointless book. My first and last Stirling novel."
130669,1,Selling Out Is So Scene,"Theres really not much to say if you're a metal fan or a fan of the OLD underoath. You already know if you've heard this cd that they have totally SOLD OUT. This cd is a carbon copy of Taking Back Sunday or A Static Lullaby or any other of those screamo bands. Underoath used to be a very talented metal band but now are a mere scene band who conformed to the popular radio bands to get more money and more playing time. There is not one song on this cd i enjoyed. Underoath started moving mainstream with ""The Changing Of Times"" and has finally landed there with this piece of *%#!"
130680,1,Like a bite from a dog with no teeth,"You know you're supposed to feel something at some point but nothing really breaks the skin. The charecters are soulless and pretty boring even when compared solely to the other books in the series. The plot is by the numbers and predictable at every turn.When one reads a mystery novel you want to have to pay attention for every clue, every charecter shading, and yet hope to be surprised at the end despite your efforts. No such energy need be expended with this novel. You'd have to be reading the book in a different language to be surprised by anything that happens here. The set-ups are childish and can be seen a mile away.If you have to buy this to complete your set of Hard Case Crime, be my guest. I did. Everyone else, take a few steps back and try ""Fade to Blonde"" or ""Marked Woman""."
130734,1,Junk,Goku was supposed to be a little kid. Goku never went to school. Goku is really raw and does not know anything of city life. This movie was rushed. The storyline was very poor. The special effects were horrible. Nothing about this movie is good basically. Pathetic. Waste of money. HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS MOVIE TO ANYONE! PERIOD!
130736,1,I do NOT recommend this product,"I definitely do not recommend this product! My vet gave me this stuff for my cat because she has ear allergies. He said that keeping her ears cleaned about once a week with this stuff would help her ears. Well, I can't use this stuff with my cat because she HATES it when I put this in her ears. I do it as gently as I can but it seems to only irritate her ears more than anything. I definitely DO NOT recommend this product."
130817,1,Good Music...but!,The little River Band is one of my all time favorites. Unfortunately this disc is of low quality sound and even lower quality video. Too bad...great concert content and even my high-end DVD can't overcome the poor quality.
130864,1,Puzo?,"I'm totally shocked that this book carries Mario Puzo's name. $25 for this? What a huge disappointment. Since Mr. Puzo was so severly ill before his death, I tend to think someone elso wrote this from his outline and draft. This story is so weak, that I just can't believe Puzo wrote it."
130920,1,ADAM SANDLER ONCE AGAIN BRINGS US COMPLETE GARBAGE!,In my Austin Powers 2 review I stated that Adam Sandler is the only actor who might be up for the running to be called WORST ACTOR OF ALL TIME! And movie does nothing but prove my point! Stupid typical kind of movie I have at least come to expect from Sandler! COMPLETE GARBAGE!
131062,1,Uninteresting,"This book is boring. It's draw, 30 prospects for each team, is very effective but the analysis is weak and usually breaks down to: ""This guy throws hard"" or ""This guy is a great athlete."" If you are really interested in minor league scouting reports I suggest John Sickels book published by Stats Inc. it has deeper, much more interesting analysis and a friendly writing style. Major dissapointment, no way I'm getting next year's book."
131086,1,Stay away from these.,"I'm not an audiophile, just a plain ole' guy that likes quality. These speakers leave a lot to be desired. Not only do they sound like tin, but they ""skip a beat"" every minute or so. At first, I thought it was my sound card (a Creative product, too.), but I went to W**mart and bought a $10.00 set, and they work and sound great."
131127,1,"Engaging story, but bad science","Having read enthusiastic reviews of this book, I was surprised to find it ill-informed about olfaction science. I'm a biologist in a related field and I had never heard of Turin before, but after I finished ""The Emperor of Scent,"" I read Turin's scientific papers. His ideas are interesting, but he hasn't done controlled experiments to support or refute them. Unfortunately, the background information that Burr provides to support Turin's ideas is frequently inaccurate. Burr is a good writer and seems to have done some background reading, so it's all the more disappointing that he doesn't subject Turin's work to greater scrutiny. This book was a fun read, but take it with a grain of salt."
131142,1,I loved the first two and this one broke my heart.,"The first book, ""The Forever War"" was great. The second, ""Forever Peace"" was almost as great. This one was terrible. It started out fine as a sequel to both the first and second even though they weren't related to each other. The ending was a disaster, and my secret hope is that it was tacked on by someone other than Haldeman. You know those endings where the main character wakes up and realizes everything that happened was a dream? That's not what happened, but what did happen was equally unsatisfying."
131147,1,No communication,"there was no communication between the characters. The prents were clueless- come on- that's ridiculous. When the mother went to talk to another child.s mother about her daughter pretending to be a boy, we are shut out of the conversation.The film could have been wonderful but instead it was a dud. shame on the making of such a vapid film. Why are people happy about this film when so much important stuff isn't there?"
131268,1,Dull and disappointing,I have read all of Fanny Flagg's other books and couldn't wait to get my hands on this one. I have now read the first 150 pages and I am still waiting for it to kick into gear. I picked it up and put it down several times already. What is the point? Where is the story? What is to laugh about? This book is deadly dull. I cannot punish myself by reading further.
131272,1,Very poor - not to be taken seriously,"This was just terrible if you like a movie that's close to the book (The Prince and The Pauper.) Important parts were entirely changed or left out, and the ending was a farce. I have never been more disappointed in a movie that was supposed to be similar to the book."
131335,1,Overzealous,"Quixtar has caught my attention (or perhaps the other way around) in the last few weeks and this new friend asked me to read this book. He had an entire library of books and tapes since he started in this business.Unfortunately Bill Quain talked too much. He called all other distribution systems evil. He says that when you buy at discount, you ""create liabilities"" and these shops ""create wealth"", while when you ""shop smarter, not cheaper"", you ""create assets"" on your way to financial freedom -- whatever the product is.He talked endlessly about this, I snapped out of the spell.On the plus side, though. The book discusses tricks merchandisers use to increase sales. It also convinced me that saving my time is more valuable than saving a few dollars in discount stores. Indeed, rich people spend their time creating assets, not liabilities. They invest their time. For that lesson I give this book two stars."
131351,1,PAINFULLY AWFUL (I second that),"I have been wanting to check out this film since it came out on video so this evening I stopped at the local video store and rented it. What a mistake that was! I got through about 30 minutes of this over-the-top super moronic, extremely stupid, very unfunny piece of crap film before I decided that I had suffered enough. This has got to be one of the worst comedies EVER. This definitely ain't no Dumb and Dumber.Ditto to the reviewer who said that this film was painfully awful because that it is.Don't buy it, rent it or watch it. You will be wasting your time and money like we did!Grade= F"
131398,1,Still a sleaze bag,This is Mickey Rourke's typical sleaze bag role. The film isn't even accomplished enough to be considered soft porn. Zalman King should have abandoned his efforts in mainstream filmmaking and gone straight into the adult industry. He probably would have had more fun and would have saved us from such complete crap.
131426,1,Stay away,"What a useless machine this is: It is sinister how cheaply made this model is, with a motor too powerful for the flimsy plastic container it houses. Although it sucks plastic bags and book jackets like a storm, it fails to remove lint from the floor. While vacuuming, it heated up the room so much so, that on a hot day, I couldn't keep on working after only 5 minutes of it. But the worse was that the plug and outlet were so hot to the touch, that no doubt had I not came on time to unplug it, it might have started an electric fire. It went right back to where it came from leaving me the worse for shipping costs."
131475,1,Disappointed in accessory kit,Very disappointed in accessory kit - no instructions regarding how to set up tripod. Tried to contact someone to ask questions - that is not going to happen. There is no such thing as customer service anymore. The nikon 55-200mm lens was not user friendly. This was our first really nice camera puchase and was hoping for a great accessory kit that had what was needed.
131500,1,buyer beware,i was somewhat shocked at the size and quality of the products. considering the price i am suspect. i do not think they would be 19 dollars at a store.
131507,1,A big disappointment,"Both characters and plot are over simplified and not one bit challenging. While the `Floaters' culture is well conveyed, everything else in this book is either well anticipated or utterly unconvincing. It is hard to believe that the author holds a degree in physics - any similarity to Gregory Benford, or any other author with a similar educational background, is really non existent."
131512,1,SPURIOUS,"You guessed it: It's the same leftist b.s. we were all taught in school. Please, I'm already almost asleep...spare me these tired old lies."
131541,1,Is this a joke?,"I have never seen a book more poorly written, perhaps with the exception of a story written by a third grader. It is almost as if the book were never read before publishing. There are so many grammatical errors it is almost comical. To top it off, the stories are weak and the plot lines are ridiculous. I would honestly be ashamed to admit to having written this piece [...]"
131569,1,Great Info but hard to follow,"The information in the book is worth 10 times the price. Stuff i never saw in 6 years of TKD. But i had to watch the video to get what the pictures were trying to show. The pictures in the book are really poorly done. Get the video, if you like it and want more then get the book."
131594,1,incorrect product description,I bought this item based on it said it was 8 ounces. It was only 1 3/8 ounces. I would have been better off buying the Emergency Fire Starter by SE for a third less money and at least you get the hacksaw blade with it.
131627,1,"Fairly mediocre revision of Alien; like original, first half is way too slow","People overhyped this movie. It's got good effects, sets. and atmosphere but it takes far to long to get going and so is similar to the original in a negative way."
131633,1,not a great movie,special effects are the best part of this movie! not a good story to tell your friends about and not avery good ending?
131638,1,Bad movie,I thought this was going to be awesome. Instead it was awful. What a waste of my time and money.
131651,1,A huge disapointment...,"I give it two stars because the film looks great. The actions of many of the characters are absolutely stupid and when it treaded into Friday the 13th areas; the guy in the ruptured space-suit, toasted and walking around outside the ship and then fighting the others, I checked out. Also, when the ""scientist"" wanted to play with and pet the snake - worm creature, come on, give me an f'ing break. I didn't need a sequel to like this film; I needed a smart film, with characters NOT doing stupid things."
131669,1,Save your money and your rage.,"I saw this movie opening night. What can I say, other than I laughed through the last three quarters of the film. It is obviously made to be taken seriously. And if your idea of a great, intellectually stimulating movie is ""power rangers"", then this is for you. With out spoiling any of the plot, if you can find one, this is basically a slasher film in space. ""Scientists"" (and this term is used very loosely) go into space seeking first contact. The crew of the first ever interstellar ship is manned with people from an insane asylum, and sent to investigate alien ruins. It would have been a much better film, if it had been shot with Will Ferrell or Adam Sandler as the lead."
131674,1,"watchable, but............","As I previously stated this movie is watchable, but that's about it. As a suspense/thriller it disappoints. As a member of the Aliens family, it makes little sense. Do not expect to be wowed. No great acting, not visually awesome. Simply meh."
131748,1,terrible tasting...smells aweful...to oily for grinder,"This is the worst coffee I have ever bought. It stinks really bad. The beans are very oily which is bad for the grinder (I have a super automatic). The taste is bitter and dark and strong...not smooth and rich like the Lavazza I usually get. I have no clue why anyone would give this coffee a good rating, unless the beans they sent vary A LOT and I got a bad bag. Then I tried to contact them and I cannot find any reference anywhere. Never again!2 weeks later....I want to add that I sent the coffee beans back to Amazon and they refunded my money! Thank you Amazon...once again you have proven to be a great company!"
131810,1,Bad Deal,"Braun KF580-BK AromaDeluxe 10-Cup TimeControl Coffeemaker, BlackWatch Sellers return policy / bought this coffee maker from Electronics/ worked for 3 mo. and will not work now, notified seller only to be told I had to have all original packaging in order to return for exchange & of course I am not in the habit of storing all packaging when I purchase an item.I am out the money and the store got rid of a faulty coffee maker,I would say a pretty good DEAL for them not ME. macer46"
131882,1,horrible WASTE OF MONEY,This product MELTED in my toaster oven & RUINED my brand new toaster oven. I wish I had never bought it.
131895,1,Monitor does not work,"I purchased this item because of the high ratings, but once I received it, I realized the monitor did not work. We have done everything we know to do to make it work, read the manuals, etc.. and it still will not work. I paid over $50 to have it shipped 2 day (it was shipped extremely FAST and I received it the very next day), so that is why I hate to have to pay shipping to send it back. The lyrics do show up on a tv, it's just disappointing for the monitor on the actual machine to not work. This also means the camera on the system doesn't work.As far as the sound, the cordless microphone does not work and when you sing into the other microphone, the sound in one of the speakers cuts completely out. NOT what I expected for a total of over $277.00."
131903,1,I Refuse!,"After such a reputation in the Rap Game, Mobb is Riding Da DDDD...of all people 50. I never. I haven't heard the CD all I see is 50 and his camp all over the joint and I know I would rather not hear. After all of the work they have put in over past 10 years and all of the tight MC's that exist they have camp-out with G=Unit. I guess that one hot track f/50 from the Free Agents was enough to give them trust in his reputation. Well they are 1 on billboard so I guess it worked. I guess after Common road on Kanye's dddddddd which didn't actually work in his favor. And I don't care if you agree, it is what it is and I know it is garbage without even listening that is how SMART I AM! It is averaging 3 stars and for rap artist with such credibility that equals GARBAGE. HA HA! The OJAY'S ONCE MADE A SONG CALLED FOR THE LOVE OF M O N E Y! What a Waste!"
131904,1,Wake Up!!,"Seriously people wake up Mobb Deep have not had a good album since ""Hell On Earth"". Prodigy is a much better producer than rapper and Havoc....give me a break.This Album will sell because its on G-Unit and thats the whole point but as far as skills Mobb Deep hasn't been the same since Pac ripped them a new one and that was 10 years ago. So if you are a Mobb Deep fan I don't know what you're complaining about this album sounds like all the garbage they've put out this decade."
131951,1,still waiting,"I sent my test in about a month ago. Used second day air like they recommended. I have yet to see any results. When I tried to find my test on their website, I was told my kit id was invalid. Total scam."
132008,1,Caught On Fire,"I bought this dishwasher for my son.He had it one year and last week it literally ""blew up!"" Sparks flew out the door and back of the machine.Luckily,he was home at the time.Scary part is...he usually turned it on before he went to bed.Customer service at Haier has been a nightmare.Beware of this product and this company."
132009,1,Broke after two weeks and TERRIBLE customer service,"We bought this dishwasher online and got it three weeks later. It never did work right, and after the fourth use, it broke. Started to fill with water, then just beeped and shut off. We called Haier (HA! what a joke) and went through all of the things to try to get it to work again. Then were told we would have to pay $14.99 if we wanted a new one and it would take over three weeks. No thank you. I'd rather wash them by hand!Don't waste your money, time or sanity on this product."
132015,1,Never buy This !!!,We bought this -- and boy what a waste of a few hundred dollors !! The back axcl broke at Disneyland !!!
132022,1,Trash,"Really don't like this thermometer. It cost our 3 week old a spinal tap. It is very inconsistent and not very user friendly. The setting for axillary, rectal or oral is hard to read and just getting the thing to work isn't very easy. I would not recommend this product to anyone with a baby. The only positive thing I can say, is that it does give a quick reading in the oral or rectal setting. However, it is hard to know if you are in the oral or rectal setting and you can't trust the reading that you get."
132028,1,"This was NOT the Original product, I feel the advertisement wasn't totally honest","I buy Lifebouy soap as a preference, this is not the original soap as I feel I was lead to believe.. the original soap is still made in England..this is made in India... nothing like the original....and i won't use it as who knows what it is made of...."
132114,1,Boring and lacklustre,"Bad effort by RUSH. A IRon Maiden, Van Halen, Def Leppard, Ozzy and others artists, they just can't be so great anymore."
132124,1,"Cheap, stopped working after one day!",This would work great if it worked longer than one day. I can no longer mount the drive on any computer.
132125,1,Works but pieces don't fit together,I bought two of these enclosures. Both work as advertised for my Macbook drives. BUT the main body is supposed to attach to the black end cap with two small screws. For both of my enclosures the screws didn't fit no matter how hard I tried. Poor quality construction.There are other enclosures that are cheaper and better. I'm buying two of those to replace these. Hope you don't make the same mistake...
132142,1,"Super short inseam, defective pair?","I'm usually a XS in american apparel, so I was surprised--when I removed them from the packaging, I could instantly tell they were going to be short. I'm 5'6 and the inseam on these must have been around 28in. I tried to not roll the waistband, but then it just looked silly wearing it lower like that, it didn't fit. Will have to return, super disappointed. $20 wouldve been a steal for these."
132151,1,Cannot replace the Battery ( Do Not Buy This),I purchased several of Sylvania's night lights and thought they were great until the batteries became weak and died. I found it almost impossible to disasemble the light but I finnally broke it to see where the batteries were. The one battery is soldered in place but it is not made to replace the battery. It is nice but it will not last long if you can't change the rechargable battery. This is wrong.
132155,1,HE REALLY ANNOYS ME.,Fat joe is a talentless loser who needs to lose some serious weight.This album is stupid and boring.All the beats sound the same and his rap style is crap.You will find many copies of this cd in the used section of any record store.DO NOT SUPPORT THIS CRAP!!!
132217,1,Poor content,Very disappointed relatively to what you can found on the Internet for free. I was expeting a lot concerning this book that was recommanded to me but the level is very low and subjects are given with real business cases.
132295,1,I now know why they had book burnings...............,"I had high hopes for this book after all the hype it had been receiving. However, I was horribly disappointed. It should have been titled ""The Restauranters Guide To New York"". The parts that were not brain numbingly boring were so offensive, grotesque, and downright sick that this book was impossible to finish. It leaves a bad taste in the mouth for the human race, to think that there might just be someone that depraved out there. I had to throw this book away, I wasted $12 because I could never inflict it on someone else."
132296,1,Typical,"Nothing knew to gain here. Just the typical 80's attitude ampted up but, in an expected way. Basically just don't like it. The movie was just as non-challenging, intellectually speaking. Needs to go deeper into the depravity of human nature before exploring it in print and screen."
132347,1,Thank god for the cover,"It came as no small relief when I finally got to the end of this book. I think I would have preferred having bowel surgery in the woods with a stick than even contemplating reading this. The only remotely interesting thing to do is to laugh at the disastrous writing style. At one point there is about have a page describing Daisy's lips. All very well but we do all already know what lips look like. Perhaps the most depressing thing is the characterisation, you either have the good character: Daisy, or somebody else. It is painfully obvious that Judith Krantz has little or no writing talent but us simply copying someone else's style, for them for it painted an artful picture, for her it is a whole lot of uselss adjectives."
132351,1,The Cat Who Earned Two Stars,"The Cat Who Went Bananas, by Lilian Jackson Braun, is a rather slight novel that sadly seems to have been written for the sole purpose of producing a book, rather than telling a story. The paperthin plot does not inpsire much interest. I had a difficult time determining what the book was about and whether or not there was any mystery involved. I remembered somebody mentioning a person had died, and then there was a missing book, but I could not for the life of me remember why. This was my fourth book in the series, after starting with the first three. I think I had better continue with the series in order as the quality comparison between the first three and this one decreased drastically.Two stars."
132370,1,Hair,I used these and it is cumbersome and time consuming. Plus the curl is awful. I kept it because I had used it and threw away the box. It is just sitting in my closet. Don't get them
132412,1,Disappointing after reading Pushing Ice,"After reading Pushing Ice, the much shorter Diamond Dogs was a tad disappointing. It lacked depth and character development. A bunch of people head out to explore an alien spire full of puzzles. Get it right, you move on to the next room. Get it wrong, you get sliced and diced. Frankly, its as if Reynolds watched ""The Cube"", and decided to write his own version. The lack of a solid resolution left this story as an empty copy of another idea. Since we never learn anything about the Spire or the aliens who created it, there's nothing original to get lost in and the final ""twist"" is lackluster. I'd pass on this one."
132463,1,Butchered Boy!,"I loved the Butcher's Boy and The Informant. However, this middle book in the trilogy is a bore and a total waste of time. Life is too short to have to plow through drek like this."
132553,1,"It is ok for some things, but many facts are wrong.","Its a great book if the only thing you want to look at is pictures. It's so filled with errors in the stats of items and creatures that no one should use it as a guide. This book she be bought for fun and not bought if you need help with Diablo. The strategies and tips are practically useless. It seems that the makers of ""Diablo: The Official Strategy Guide"" have put very little effort into the book because of the many spelling errors and fact errors."
132606,1,Terrible,"This is the most challenging game i have ever played. Impossible to beat, and just frustrating, I dont recomend this to anyone!"
132619,1,Aquasonic bottle,"I ordered this product and it wasnt well packed , when I got it , it was on a yellow envolope with no security or sign that said fragil , and the tap was broken , so at the end , I didnt get anything.. :("
132634,1,The WORST skin product I have ever used!!!,"I used this product on my body only ONCE and it totally ruined my skin!!! Neutrogena doesnt tell you that copper peptides activate enzymes called MMPs - these are the SAME enzymes that break down collagen and elastin (like when you're out in the sun - they cause photodamage and elastosis)! I used this product only ONE TIME and it caused my skin to atrophy, dry and wrinkle; and it caused terrible red / yellow brown discoloration. It has been months since I stopped using it and there has been little improvement. I look like I've aged 10 years! MMP-2 and MMP-9 are upregulated by copper peptides - they degrade elastin, collagen, and cause angiogenesis (growth of new blood vessels) - look it up yourself on the internet! Unless you want to ruin your skin, go with a retinol or vitamin c product instead!"
132646,1,Not worth it,Very loud and did not chop or crush the ice. Jumped all over the counter when on. Would not buy a small one again.
132683,1,worst ever,"I doubt the reviewer previous to me actually saw this movie, but let me assure any potential purchasers that this movie is garbage. The plot moves like an old man on a bad acid trip. What there is of decent martial arts action is overshadowed by the ridiculous hopping of the ghost-children.Unless you want to laugh your way through the plot and action, just look elsewhere for an old-school kung-fu flick, this is just garbage :P"
132696,1,Not really made for a TV set,"This is one of those motion pictures where producers seemed to strive for authenticity by having dialogue in foreign languages with sub-titles on the screen. That may have worked OK for large motion picture theatre screens, or for people with huge screen plasma TVs. I was trying to watch this on a normal TV set, and the subtitles came out too small to read from across the room. It was like trying to watch something where people were speaking in tongues. I had trouble getting into the story, or understanding where it was going, so I turned it off to watch something more interesting.So, it might be OK if you have a huge screen plasma TV to go with the sub-titles, and want something intellectual. If you are like me, and you are looking for something to watch on a normal TV set, I would suggest saving your money."
132707,1,Nice 'til it dies,"I really liked this compressor for the first year and a half. It was easy to move around or load into the truck and worked well enough for my needs. Then the regulator started leaking... The nearest authorized service center was 75 miles away so DeWalt sent me an O-ring kit. Two weeks later, when the kit finally arrived, and after 10 minutes to install it I was back in business.It's been less than a year since replacing the o-rings and I think the motor has burned up :( I AM REALLY DISSAPOINTED IN THIS COMPRESSOR! For the price I could have bought 2 of another brand.If you buy this to air up the kids bicycle tires, you will love it! If you have work to do, this would be a poor choice."
132759,1,Do not order this item if you want what is described,They shipped the Phosphorescent version of this compass even though they list the Tritum version here and will keep your shipping charges and make you pay the return freight. The vendor has been notified several weeks ago and has not corrected the error. Avoid this item and find a better vendor.
132761,1,Sorry but the lady's voice sux,"Listening to the album i really loved songs like ""Best Friends"", and ""So many thing"" and some others but some songs reminded me of Jackson 5, as strange is it may seem. The lady's voice reminds me of Micheal Jackson's voice when he was a kid, u can hear that in ""What U gonna do""... If u like the voice alot i propose u buy the album cuz then u'll like it alot... BUT if u think the voice is bad... then buy something else.. don't waiste u'r money on this... buy Case or Tank"
132771,1,Pathetic,"Other reviewers stated that they had been taken in by the huge promotion of this book, and were very disappointed. I won a free copy from their promotional website, and it was still one of the worst deals of my life. This is easily the worst book I've read in the last ten years"
132802,1,just wasnt for me,"Im sorry to report it just wasnt for me. I read up to chapter nine then called it quits. The idea is good but on paper its bad. just seems like some grown ups acting like teenagers, which could be fun to an extent. i do however want to read one of the lastest books to see if her writing has changed. i usually just like to read in book order but its not going to happen."
132959,1,Bought 2 - both broke = poor quality,I purchased two of these pads and both are defective. One didn't even work at all and the second didn't survive one full night of DDR. I do not recommend these pads - I would say buy the more expensive ones with the foam pads inside - they may cost more but those would be more durable than these flimsy ones.
132983,1,"Zero should be the rating, but it's not available.",I am very disappointed. I have been a customer of amazon for many years. I placed an order this afternoon in error and within 20 minutes was told I could not cancel the order because the shipment was being PREPARED. It had not shipped mind you and was not going to ship anytime soon. I was told to expect delivery in 14 days!! What is up with this? I will not order from amazon again!
133002,1,fiction/exploitation at it's best!,"What if...what if Charles has been a ""drugged out hippie guru"", what if Charles had been involved, even in the slightest in the murders, what if Charles had even been in the area for the so-called ""Tate"" murders...what if Charles so called friends hadn't taken and turned on him, becoming deceitful little liar, some even hiding behind their religion that too is a lie, in my opinion)...Anyway, if these ""what if's"" even had a tiny little bit of truth to them, this book may be considered non fiction..People need to stop buying into these exploitative lies and those lies put forth by the king of lies, V. Bugliosi...Open your minds and stop being robots.Charles did not ""lead"" anyone.If anything, his only crime was trusting people and surrounding himself w/ liars who woul dsell their mother's soul for their own selfish purposes."
133029,1,Worm found on Greenies Joint Care,"Just opened Greenies Joint Care (individually sealed) in December 2011 and found small worm crawling all over it. Next one looked fine, but really supposed to trust these now?"
133041,1,wrong size,I ordered the large size but received the regular size for dogs 25-50 lbs. My dog is 75 lbs and needs the other size.
133103,1,Very dated satire.,"Definitely one of Roth's lesser books, ""Our Gang,"" written almost entirely in dialogue, purports to be a pox-on-all-your-houses take on the Nixon Administration. Unfortunately, it's chiefly notable for being one of the most heavy-handed satires in memory, as Roth repeatedly extends promisingly witty riffs well past the point of endurance. The over-the-top finale completely jumps the rails. Hard-core Nixon haters might like it--but don't you have better things to do with your time?"
133163,1,It was painful to watch,"I haven't seen the original Dirty Pair, but I have the Dirty Pair Flash series and love it. That made this movie very painful to watch. I realize that I probably need to see the original Dirty Pair to understand this movie completely, but the reason I disliked this movie were the animation quality and the voice acting. The animation is awful, and bad voice acting. Wendee Lee is a good voice actress in most things like Haruhi Suzumiya, but this movie didn't benefit at all from her performance. I advise anyone thinking about watching this to reconsider."
133185,1,Painful to Watch,"I absolutely hated this movie. I watched the first half hour and was bored out of my mind. I fast forwarded thru the rest. Katherine Heigel always plays the prude stuck up woman, she can never seem to try something new or get out of her comfort zone. I Do Not recommend."
133188,1,Horrible book,Horrible horrible horrible.. Bode is black and then white.. can't people see for themselves using their eyes.. this is the weirdest thing..
133210,1,Seriously frustrating!,"My daughter likes it, but only because she has an unusually high level of patience. Her friends refuse to play it after they tried unsuccesfullly to finish a game. 30 minutes into it and they were nowhere near even the middle of the game and that was with a set of friends who are quiet and calm. I would never pull this game out for some of her other more rambunctious friends.Please DO NOT by this game!"
133229,1,Not really a review.....,"I wish I could rate this DVD! But again the companies let the European Lucy Ball Fans down. First we could not buy VHS video-tapes released in USA, due to the different TV-systems..... So we hoped for the releases on DVD. But guess what: Region Codings.... Thus again: No Lucy Ball for her European Fans..... A pity and a missed chance!"
133233,1,Van Dissapointment,"After Van Damme set sail in Timecop,a box-office smash his career was exactly where it needed to be.I thought only his flicks could get better,but after Streetfighter I thought differently.He should of let Stallone take the job,just like Judge Dredd,Streetfighter is a video game movie type disaster.Van Dammes acting was rusty and his fight scenes looked like special effect errors that needed to be edited.Now with it on DVD the price makes the movie look great,but in reality it's garbage.I personally love Van Dammes hard hitting action flicks,and I ain't putting him down personally but this movie has serious problems and a headache of a storyline."
133319,1,SMELLY!,"This movie is really stupid and made me fall asleep.Maybe you will like it,but trust me rent this title before making your final choice.I recommend it that you see Bela Lugosi,Gary Oldman(Bram Stoker's Dracula,R),Kaulis Kinski(Nosferatu,1979)and Christopher Lee(Hammer Film Company).Rated R for language,violence,adult content,and nudity."
133326,1,Writing is amateurish at best,"This book of fan-boy gushings from McGonigal is fine for, say, a quick read on a flight, but if you're looking for any kind of serious insight or analysis, look elswhere--unfortunately it looks like the only other option is the priceyMy Bloody Valentine's Lovelessby David Fisher."
133394,1,SUCKS!!!!!!!!,"Who in God's name gave this clown the rights to remix Yes albums?This drum machine happy moron hasn't a clue on how to artistically enhance these classics.Over the top sampling and overuse of drum machines are akin to some 5 year old finger painting over a Renoir or Picasso with excrement.I bought this thinking that these were remasters and remixes.This is just some jughead with a sampler and no talent.If this is Steve Howe's son,if I were him ,I would get a DNA test,because I can't believe that they're related!"
133397,1,Problem for public use,"We first purchased these staplers for a busy academic library for our patrons' use. The first year they were terrific. This past year, every single stapler broke by the third day of use. The loading device has a small plastic nub that is critical for the proper functioning of the stapler. That nub broke in every single stapler. We duck-taped the loader and got more mileage from each stapler that way but the whole situation was very difficult. It is an example of a great product that went wrong through a cheapened manufacturing process. This might be ok for your desk, but for public or heavy duty use, avoid it."
133407,1,Junk Chinese Checkers,"The cardboard board folds, so does not lie flat. Thought having the lines would help my grandson understand how the checkers have to be moved to play, but so wobbly they just roll off the board. I threw it away. Don't waste your money."
133426,1,Did we read the same book?,"My book club chose this book on the basis of all the good reviews it got, and our opinions ranged from mildly disappointed to outright hatred. To me, it read like the author had a good premise for a magical-realism short story, then appended 250 more pages that supposedly fleshed it out but were really just dull and unsatisfying and riddled with cliches. Bakapoulos can clearly write -- the first chapter or two, when the fathers disappear, shows that -- but the vast majority of the book is a bad Hemingway imitation about a boring guy doing boring things without the benefit of a bit of insight about what effect all their fathers disappearing had on him and his friends. If Bakapoulos ever puts out a collection of short stories I'd check it out from the library, but give this one a pass."
133459,1,yet another church-funded christian propaganda film,"yet another church-funded christian propaganda film that is just fantasy, no need for this fluff, it will melt the brain of any rational thinker"
133585,1,After [...] Investment Simply Did Not Work for Our Dog,"Maybe these work for other dogs but we followed the instructions closely they did nothing to reduce the size or duration of the brown spots left by our dog's urine. We went through 4, 8 ounce wafer packages [...] before throwing in the towel. After our efforts failed, we asked our vet for advice. He said he's never seen any of these products perform as described. Check with your Vet first before making this investment."
133682,1,Not received,"I still haven't received an issue yet. Said the first issue was due on jan. 7th, it is now the 27th"
133689,1,Not impressed!,I don't like most of the artwork show cased in this magazine. There were only about two magazines the whole year that had good artwork in them in my opinion. I would not recomend this magazine!
133724,1,broke after 5 months,"This worked fine for about 5 months, now it shorts out, so music comes through only one earbud (regardless of which of the 2 splitter inputs is used). Squeezing/bending the splitter fixes the 2nd channel, but only while holding it in that position. Usually had in my shorts pocket, so not a lot of stress on the cable. Due to this problem, I would not buy this product again."
133729,1,Jane Olivor Completely Misses,"What a disappointment. I have always been a huge fan of Jane Olivor. When I heard she was releasing a Christmas album, I couldn't wait to get a copy - what a mistake.The album sounds like one big long constant note, unchanging and missing the life and power usually found in Jane Olivor's voice.There is just far too much Christmas music from which to choose for people to subject themselves to such a flat album. Unfortunately, something I thought would be thrilling is now headed for the trash."
133739,1,Awkward Gimmick,"The glasses are well made but I found them awkward to use. They didn't fit comfortably and it took quite a bit of time to get them on. The gimmick sounded cool but didn't work well for me. Every head is different, so maybe they'll work better for you."
133752,1,Broke on first use,"This luggage is not well designed since the left latch broke upon first use. Anyone who purchases this piece should also buy a luggage strap to make it secure, since the flimsy latches will not hold up. If they open, which they do easily, even when you don't want them to, they will be broken off if they come in contact with other luggage. I have requested a repair or replacement from EBags and will follow up this COMMENT if I do not receive satisfaction. Samsonite needs to redesign this luggage."
133786,1,Be Prepared To Be Scared Silly!,"Sure this phone is a very cute little phone. It has pretty colors, and kept my young child busy for a couple of hours. Lets get down to the real business folks...this phone rang off its hook about a month into owning it. As strange as this may seem...it scared us silly at night for a week straight! I literally threw it against a wall on the 3rd night, but that didn't stop it from ringing the following night. (This is why I gave this toy 5 stars in the durability section.) I would not recommend purchasing this toy for yourself, but perhaps for someone you wish to scare the silly out of!"
133981,1,Misleading description of clock!,"I purchased this particular clock because it was described as an ""Outdoor"" clock. Upon receipt of the clock I read the instruction book and under the section entitled ""Frequently Asked Questions"" is the following:""Q. Can a La Cross Technology clock be used outdoors?A. Yes, but only in a dry environment and in a temperature range between 41 F andd 131 F. This clock is NOT water-resistant.""Living in New England, we do get rain and snow and the temperature is frequently below 41 F. The clock has a VERY misleading description!"
133983,1,A real disappointment. . .,"I must be getting to be an old fart that doesn't like anything new or different. I was an early fan of Madonna. I even saw her perform in a ""raising star"" concert. I have her first four CDs which I really enjoy. Other artists, however, caught my attention and I began to ignore Madonna. My niece gave me an Amazon gift certificate for Christmas so I used it to buy this CD to see what I've been missing. What an absolute disappointment. Without a doubt, my worest CD buy in months. If this is one of her ""greatest hits"" CDs, I'm sure glad I stopped buying her CDs when I did."
134015,1,Kind-of boring,"The songs are mostly ballads. They sound very similar to one another. I had a hard time listening to the album in its entirety.Buy her self-titled album or ""Crossroads"" or ""Telling Stories"" instead."
134052,1,No Viewfinder!!!,"I was prepared to order one when a friend bought one and I had a chance to try it out. What is wrong with Sony (and Panasonic and others)? There is no viewfinder and trying to shoot in bright overhead sunlight using that LCD screen is lousy. Obviously these viewfinder-less cameras are not aimed at anyone serious about video work. I had planned to get one of these to supplement my 3CCD primary cameras because small size is an advantage in some places, but no viewfinder makes it impossible. I would have given this a 0 star rating, but that wasn't a choice here."
134058,1,MOM OF 2 ENERGETIC KIDS,"My kids have a lot of basic bath toys such as plastic bowls and cups so I figured I would get them some real bath toys to play with...well I might as well left this one on the shelves. It NEVER stays afloat, it just sinks to the bottom of the bathtub underneath all the bubbles and it gets forgotten about until I let the water out and pull it to shore. I agree with the other parents, the flip cabin is just useless. The only thing that gets played with is the little toys that came with it but the actual boat just stays outside the bathtub. I guess some kids just like it simple because they love the plastic cups and bowls from my kitchen rather than bath toys from the store."
134063,1,Stopped working after a few weeks,"I had the same problem with my headset, it worked fine for a few weeks, and then the mic seemed to keep working, but the earpiece didn't work any more. I asked at the Cingular store, and the lady said this was a common problem with the Jabra headsets in general, and this one in particular."
134078,1,My Ultimate Collection Order,"Where is my order?? Shipping estimate: August 3, 2009 - August 10, 2009. Reviewing the status I see it hasn't been shipped yet! What's going on??"
134148,1,Minutes to Midnight is very lame.,"I used to be a big fan, I have all their albums and all prior to this were really good. I was very disappointed after listening to Minutes to Midnight. It does not sound like Linkin Park, especially track 3 and track 5 and the list goes on, which sounds like a pop teen boy band type of song (like backstreet boys). This is the the worst CD I have ever heard next to the new Fall Out Boy - Infinity On High. They are both so lame and sound nothing like what you would expect. Linkin Park should have retired if this is the type of music they plan to produce. They have ruined their good reputation.I almost forgot to mention that they often use obscene language in places where it simply does not fit the song. It is totally uncalled for, maybe they think it makes them sound ""cool"" but it actually sounds so lame. They sing like new kids under peer pressure trying to sound ""cool"" to fit in. What a shame!"
134155,1,The most disgusting album of this year,"Man i cannot believe linkin park sounding like this just listen the song like leave out all the rest, shadow of the day, in between, in pieces, the little thing give you away, those song??? how can they picked them up.and the funniest thing is when you hear hands held high this song should be in fort minor album not linkin park, and you will know from this album that guys from linkin park is so confuse about their bands in the future, what should this band sounds like, this album is way out of the line manbut i still give this album 1 star bcuz there's track tittle given up and what i've done."
134159,1,what is this bologna...,dont waste your time.. i can listen to hybrid theory and meteora all day. I cant even get passed 5 songs without having to change the CD. Terrible.. just terrible.. mr. hahn and mike shinoda aren't even present... Almost seems like when they had the interview with them on MTV the other day. Just Chesters and Phoenix's ideas as they were saying what they wanted to express.. They pretty much sold out to the likes of Rick Rubin who totally messed up this cd and added his political thoughts just like in American Idiot cd. Rick Rubin is a turd.. this is not linkin park.
134236,1,Works only with batteries,The product is good but I wish it worked also with a power cord. I have outlets outside and I could use them so I do not have to replace the batteries every month.
134242,1,Extremely Cheap Quality!!!,The horn was delivered bent (bought from BikeWorldUSA) on the Flare and the Chrome was flaking along the length of the horn. The hardware to connect the horn to the bike is very very low quality and does not allow you to lock in the direction of the horn securely. Just pay the extra $5-10 at your local bike shop for a higher quality one. I am.
134247,1,Cutting Base moulding laying flat @ 45*,"Cutting Base moulding laying flat @ 45* does not cut square no matter how much i try to adjust it, it doesnt work. as for the rest of the saw its ok. I will buy the Festool Kapex next time"
134306,1,hummm...,"hi there i have been a carpenter for 20 years, i bought this video because i like watching them and who knows i might learn somthing knew,,,,, my dislikes are.....1) while larry was cutting the 4x4 blocks for the girders he did not mark them with a speed square there for they can be out of square and cause one side to be low or higher the what the block was measured for.2)the way larry manoverred his skilsaw was a little on the scary side.3) while putting on the sub floor larry did not put any insulation under the floor, and that is code most any where.4)the stair stringers were off set by one inch, thats not a bascic set of stairs.5) also on the stairs larry put the stringers tight against the wall, every set of stairs i have seen there is eather a 1x4 or 2x4 at the bottom of the stringer and then put to the wall that way sheet rock can go down futher and carpet can be tucked.LIKES.... 1)layout, laying out the joist before cutting them, and hold nails all in the same direction. thanks..."
134316,1,any console games,"Games from the US dont work onBritish spec machines,it sucks .Why is this i would bye loads, butthay just dont work, stupid."
134317,1,DO NOT BUY THESE!!!!!!!!!!,"After this detector was in my house for 3 years it started going off for no reason, at all times of the day and night. I had the fire department at my house twice for false CO alarms. My electrician had to replace this combo version AND all the regular smoke detectors of the same brand, as they were sounding for no reason as well. He also had to replace them TWICE in another customer's house. He is in the process of getting reimbursed from his supplier, who will hopefully make the company aware of this incredibly faulty product."
134336,1,COPTER,"THIS IS A NICE ADDITION TO THE SET. ALTHOUGH IT DOESN'T HAVE NOISES OR LIGHTS. IT IS NOT REAL THRILLING TO A CHILD, UNLESS THEY HAVE A GREAT IMAGINATION. MY CHILD DOESN'T USE IT THAT MUCH."
134382,1,Too loud and not accurate,My Lamello bisquit joiner was expensive but it delivers so much more accuracy and it is much more quiet than the DeWalt. This DeWalt plate joiner looks just like my DeWalt angle grinder. The DeWalt Grinder is great because noise and accuracy don't matter when grinding metal. But for fine woodworking an angle grinder design won't cut it - I prefer the Lamello.
134387,1,Blue ray version wont play. Samsung says issues with disk,"I bought this in blue ray and it wont play. I called Samsung because I thought it was my player, and they told me that there was an isue with the disk. That their tech support was working on a firm ware upgrade for it. I am done with blue ray. I think I will send my player back to Amazon for a refund."
134389,1,Terrible!,"This book was badly written for a couple of reasons. First of all, there are a lot of grammar mistakes, making it seem like it was just thrown together. Secondly, most of the information it contained is already very well known and some of it false. It contadicts itself in several places. There are quite a few good books out there about Gordon, but this is definatly not one of them."
134471,1,Not impressed,"This is a rather expensive nail trimmer that does not do a good job of cutting my dog's nails. First, I think the blade is geared for a smaller dog (even though the one I own is supposed to be for a ""mid-sized"" dog), it takes a lot of hand strength to cut the actual nail. Then, it shatters the nail rather than cuts it, so you end up with splinters, rather than a clean nail slice.On top of that, this trimmer is supposed to find the quick, well the only time is gives you the green light is when the trimmer is away from the dog's nail. Even when I placed the trimmer on the very tip of the nail, it still glowed red.Bottom line -- great idea, bad product."
134503,1,Bleh,"This book sucks, but on the bright side the back of the book has the answer to every problem, instead of just the odd ones. Plus, I managed to make a profit by buying the book on Amazon, then selling it to my school for $60 at the end of the semester."
134518,1,Ultra violence meets (...) humour,"Mel Gibson must be a very disturbed man. All his films are very violent. ""Payback"", ""The Patriot"" and ""The Passion of Christ""(which at least I found to be pretty funny though I don't think it was meant to be) all glorify violence.Catherine McCormack takes off her clothes in this film which is why I give it 1 star and not 0. Unfortunately Sophie Marceau doesn't take off her clothes and even more unfortunate is that Mel does. I found the mooning scene in this movie to be quite childishThis movie is intended for the less intelligent American market rather than for us Scots. All of Mel Gibsons recent films are marketed towards less intelligent people such as George W Bush or the Pope or Mel himself I suppose.Mel Gibson hasn't made a decent film since ""Mad Max 2"" yet he continues to make millions of dollars making these awful films.I guess...YOU CAN TAKE MY TALENT BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE MY MILLIONS!!!!"
134655,1,Pompus presentation of his part in things,"Did not like it. His use of the first person singluar pronoun was very annoying, as was the book in its entirety."
134680,1,Blind pilots vs. Superwoman,"Well, this book is a good case for what an author shouldn't do to build depth and characters. Instead, this book is nothing more than Rambo in the air. It's one woman vs. some of the worst pilots the US can muster in the world, and they die in unnamed droves.Technical expertise (which is above average for the genre) cannot carry this book as the characters (the pages of the book have more depth) and action is pathetic at its best."
134715,1,unfortunately 2 l.e.d's were not working unpackaged,"if this wasnt the case i would give 3 stars only because it advertises that it changes red to blue (false)other than that if it had worked 100 percent out of package and had stated advertised that it was blue led stand not blue and red , then 4 stars would be in order..but judging on how my item came w/ two led's out of order i would say the life span may be a tad short, which is why the item is 5-6 bucks..but you get what you pay for and at that price if my unit worked as advertised and worked 100 percent then it would be a great buy at that price.."
134828,1,not so easily installed,"After purchasing a package with Firewall and 2003 Professional edition I tried installing them at home on XP and was pleased when Firewall was so simple but then distraught when Antivirus would no scan my email nor my system. I spent hours on tech support, uninstalling, reinstalling and trying to restore my system to an earlier date. I suspect that XP has something to do with it but who knows? Anyway when I was sent by the system failure message to the tech support site there were over 400 similiar problems. My solution to get another firewall and antivirus and start over. My system was clean and virus free before the installation and now I am at the library to use the web as I am reluctant to use it at home. Be careful what you get even if it does say it is compatable- maybe not so or [more] to get Norton's help to install- should not have to do that!!!"
134830,1,Erland! Oy!,"After the first track, this album goes downhill fast. Or should I say downhill slow, since the drum machine catches a cold in from track two on, and all we're left with is a bunch of songs with minimal tunes performed at a glacial pace. I liked his last solo album, but he needs to try harder from now on."
134839,1,Please. PLEASE read No-Cry Sleep Solution or Ferber's book instead!!!,"Let me give you the entire content of the book:Let your baby cry until she gives up on her parents ever coming to her aid. Repeat as necessary.There is a little useful information about nap schedules (Save yourself the money - 3 hours between naps for 12 months and under) The rest is a bunch of charts and graphs that I'm sure most people skip, plus case histories of babies who wake up ""happy"" after being allowed to cry for hours on end.This is a TERRIBLE book. I am sad to think how many parents are buying it and using the author's bad advice. I would give it 0 stars, but that wasn't an option."
134862,1,PAINFUL!,"I read all the reviews for Norton SW 2003, and when I read the negative reviews said to myself, ""Oh, that won't happen to ME!"" After running a full system scan, the computer locked up. Basically from what I can gather, it erased/damaged a lot of files that Windows needs. I still don't have it up an running after 3 days of trying. It won't even start in safe mode. Yes, after rebates, it was a great deal, but at what cost? I hope I haven't lost all my files. This did not work out for me and I advise others not to buy this."
134874,1,The WORST product i've ever seen....,"If you want to block ads, feature that will eventually block almost all functional web browsing, if you want to have the most awful experiencie with pop-up alerts...if you really really really hate youself and want to have a heart attack, then get super Norton Internet Security!!!Specific rules on traffic DOES NOT WORK, the software behaves the way it way set by default and THAT'S IT!Forget about advanced features or anything that goes outside the tinny box you bought.This thing is the worst thing you could ever buy....I WANT MY MONEY BACK!!!!!"
134931,1,Did Mr. Spada do ANY research?,"I admit I only picked up this book and glanced at the photos and descriptions.Mr. Spada wrote by the picture of Julia in character during the film ""Steel Magnolias"" that her character was having an epiliptic seizure. Huh?Her character in the film has DIABETES, as is mentioned some dozen times in the film. In the scene pictured she's having an episode of low blood sugar. Also clearly defined in the movie. Epilepsy? Not even minorly related to diabetes.I would think Mr. Spada would have seen some of Ms. Robert's movies, (particularly this one as it is her first nomination for an Academy Award) or at the very least he would have used half way decent research. If I found this one glaring error how many others are there?"
135039,1,Blender blades are fragile!,"We don't use a blender frequently, so our blenders don't see hard use. The motor base on this one seems plenty powerful, but after about 10-15 uses, the blades in the blender container sheared in half while I was making a smoothie."
135050,1,Do not buy,"The WCG200 V2 still has several software/firmware defects, the most annoying of which is dropped connections several times a day. To restore communications, a cold boot is required.The convenience of an all-in-one solution is outweighed by the time wasted in reestablishing connections. If you telecommute using SSH or Telnet over VPN then DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM."
135068,1,Don't buy from this company!!!!,"DO NOT order from the company Baby Love!!!! They took my money and didn't send the product. To this day, I have never received the training pants. I hope that Amazon took them off of their site."
135089,1,Jerry Maguire- One and One-Half Star,"I must be crazy. I think Cruise is an excellent actor, and so are all the other participants in this movie. And the writing is pretty snazzy too. The problem is the plot is ridiculous.Evil agent suddenly becomes Good agent and then spends rest of the time up to no particular good, or much of anything.Also, young single mom QUITS JOB because Evil agent SUDDENLY announces he's good? Quits job so that rich evil agent who suddenly becomes poor can't pay her anymore after offering her job? I give up."
135212,1,Not a good first version for your library,"Due to its' age this recording's quality is spotty. Sometimes the chorus may as well have been in another state. Callas' performance is wonderful, the rest of the principals are adequate. If you are filling out a collection of Callas' work this would be a worthy addition. If you really want to hear the opera, pick another version."
135232,1,Amateurish and Naive,"These writers, Buchanan and Wallace have written a superficial and impractical resource. It's as though they decided to get published and sat down in their living room, dug out some old school papers, ripped off other idea people, and pieced together something overnight with out any real thought or experiement. Once in a great while I am astonished, given the amount of good work that gets submitted to publishers, to find cr*p like this sqeak through. I can only asume that the writers knew someone or are related to someone. Don't bother wasting your money on this garbage like I did."

135240,1,Read why,"It pains me to give a Beatles release 1 star. That being said it's the same 1999 CD repackaged for all you suckers who decided to buy it. As I get older I've stopped falling into this trap. I didn't buy the 1 either as it was the 2009 remasters being used. However, I did purchase the Blue and Red because of the packaging and subtle differences, etc. The package is not different for 1 or Yellow Submarine. Enjoy wasting your money. But, if you never purchased these albums be my guest."
135277,1,Oh for goodness sake,"The first half of this movie is great!! Then, Julia Roberts shows up to play herself and ruins the entire movie. It tried to be cute but wasn't. The ending is simply terrible. The entire concept of the big robbery turned out to be pointless. I really looked forward to this movie after the first one being so good - then was actually angry that I wasted my time and money on something so...... pathetic."
135295,1,"Greed... Pure, Unadulterated Greed","I have to agree with reviewer Smokey on this one. This release is a joke. Do everyone a favor and pass on this one. Don't encourge studios to censor the first release of a series on DVD only to release it ""uncut"" later. The special commentary tracks included here were left off the volume 1 and 2 sets. I'm sure FOX was saving them for an opportunity to make more money."
135309,1,Buyer beware,"I bought this remote because it was the cheapest one I could find. I got what I paid for. This remote remote only works when it wants too. It covers up the head phone jack on my iPod when it is plugged in, which is the only jack that you can use and control the volume. I wish I would have spent a little more and gotten a remote that worked better."
135356,1,PokeMon Leaf Green,The game itself is lots of fun but at a certain spot the game malfunctions and you can go no further. This did not show up until a week after I started playing the game.
135372,1,Strategies Left Me Wondering,"Banks, continuing to write about multicultural education and studies with this book, hit a wall! Concepts covered in the book were basic to the point of a lack of given information. I did not find this book comprehensive for the information I was looking for, I needed to do further research on the topic I was interested in! Not a helpful source in my eyes!"
135412,1,A minority view of this performance.,"If the standard of playing Bach is to play like Glenn Gould, thenthis is perfect Bach. Personally speaking, I dont know what the hubbub is all about. I find Gould's highly praised rhythms and quirks highly irritating and not at all reflective of genius, butsimply a symptom of originality. For those few who gain nothing emotionally from this performance, I recommend my overwhelming favorite of this work played by Perahia."
135485,1,I am so torn over this movie...,"I love Pavement. They are absolutely one of my favorite bands. This DVD, though, is just simply awful. The videos are good to have, and for that I'm grateful. But the documentary is so boring and shot so poorly. The live concert sound is terrible and doesn't do Pavement justice at all.I'm also not a big fan of back-in-the-day documentaries, I guess. I like seeing things as they unfold, not watch people reminisce about the past. This band, more than any other, deserves better.Rate this FIVE stars for Pavement. MINUS ONE star for the documentary. Hence, two stars."
135522,1,"Worked great for two days, then *kaboom*","The laser seemed terrific the first 48 hours of ownership; very bright and fun to use. On the third day, with no external ""trauma"" (e.g. dropping the unit) to speak of, the green dot appeared very dim. About 45 seconds after noticing the dim nature of the dot, the unit permanently stopped functioning. This item is inexpensive, but also cheap -- there's a reason for the large spectrum of prices within the same class of laser (< 5 mW). Beware!"

135529,1,Go ahead. Give Yoko your money.,"Another cynical attempt by Yoko Ono, the millionaire, to take your money by recycling yet again Lennon's work. I guess the baby-boomers can afford it, right? Let's face it, John Lennon's post-Beatle solo career was an utter failiure. His five year break in the late seventies was a career move, nothing more and nothing less."
135536,1,don't buy it,"i felt like this dvd was thrown together purely to... row fans(or in my case 2Pac fans) into buying it. i've actually seen many of the interviews from VH1 behind the music. It also... me off that they said 2Pac was just in the rap game for money, i think they oversimplified him, and obviously didn't do any research on his personality. Personally i thought the real kicker was when this one guy kept referring to him as ""2Pack."" Basically you'd be a lot better off watching VH1's ""behind the music""--its a lot less expensive."
135562,1,Yuck!Yuck!Yuck!Yuck!Yuck!Yuck!Yuck!,"What sort of songs are those?It's just someone talking about"" You are not as fat as you imagine"", ""Don't buy magazines, they will only make you feel ugly"", ""Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't"" etc. Please! I don't know why this was even released as a song! If not for the music, this would sound like an eulogy reading at a funeral. And that's only Everybody's Free .It makes me shudder to think about the other so-called songs"
135575,1,this doesn't deserve a star,"This anime is horrible. Everything about it is just irritating, the animation, the characters, the story, and everything else in the movie has me at a loss for words. Do not buy this anime, I don't care if a friend lones it to you don't waste your time on it. Completely worthless!"
135589,1,Filter bursts at the bottom after 8 months.,"I was very happy at first with this Culligan product until at about after 9 months, the filter bottom split open, flooding the kitchen floor and cabinet area. I thought it was a fluke thing and installed a new filter. The same thing happened at around 8 months with water everywhere. I called Culligan to report this and they said they have never heard about this problem??? The filter has a engineering flaw at the base where it is seemed together. I DO NOT recommend a Culligan water filtration system. Besides the water damage I have, they weren't even willing to send a new filter or acknowledge that they have a design flaw. The Culligan representative told me to try the EZ-4 filter, but after reading reviews, I found that it's happening with the EZ-4 filter as well. I have never had this problem with the GE filters, so I'm going back to them."
135670,1,Not so good Television,"Bought the TX-R3079WH about 3 years ago, and recently one side of the screen is so blurry you can't read text and the images are blurred in that area noticeably. This thing gets maybe 3 hours a day use. I would not buy this television, especially since Samsung does not appear anxious to stand behind their product."

135756,1,Gross. Terrible knowledge of physics,"Two questions,how does this ship manage to punch a hole in space to create a black hole,artifically? Secondly,why is the doctor(Sam Neill's character) the only one left alive(?!) Lastly,what the heck happened to the ship and why is it found around Neptune? Who financed this,military intelligence? Now there's an oxymoron!"
135794,1,Statistical truth is half truth,"I actually bought this by mistake. I was looking for Harv Ecker's book Secrets Of The Millionaire Mind, which I liked even less.Want to become a millionaire? Forget it if you're a single woman. Forget it if you're a man who chooses to marry a woman with dreams of her own. This book winds up being so supportive of the 'father knows best' stereotype of what leads to success that I found it annoying. This book looks for, and finds, great successful MEN who own businesses, go to church, have ""supportive loving"" wives and families. They turn out to be the largest group of the rich. What a surprise."
135802,1,"Thankfully I Don't ""Get"" It!","Being a fan of multiple genres, artists, styles I always keep an open mind when listening to things the first time. Having got this on loan from the library, what resonated was how how glad I was I didn't actually pay for this dreadful album. The writing, singing and playing is uninspired, formulaic and displays little talent. Reading the various reviews causes me to wonder how someone could give this five stars, or four or three...Thankfully I don't ""get"" it. Not having smoked, drank or ingested some other type of substance likely had something to do with that. That is the only way I could conceive getting anything out of this and might explain others getting any pleasures out this subpar effort. People, there is so much better music out there than to waste your time on this!"

135899,1,Messy with a short cord,I asked for this at Xmas and replaced it today. I've tried living with it for two months but I give up. The simple act of opening it loses grounds everywhere. I selected the Cuisinart with a removable cup to replace it. You can find this one at the Salvation Army.
135909,1,Disappointing,"From the duo that made the visually innovative and exhilarating Delicatessen, the City of Lost Children exhibits the same ability to translate dreams to the screen, share a poetic and original vision, as shown since in Alien Resurrection and Amelie. Ultimately though, this movie is a disappointment : poor dialogues, and, mostly, a wholly predictable plot. A fairy tale it is, a visual treat no doubt, but lacking of a compelling story."
135980,1,50/50 Fifties,"The concept was an interesting one: half the album pop, half rock & roll. It turns out a miserable failure however because these ARE NOT the original recordings, but annoyingly mediocre remakes.Disc good for indoor frisbee only. (zero stars)"
135989,1,A Sad Misstep for King,"I clawed my way to the end of this book, but it was tough going. King, who possesses a genuine literary talent that he didn't use consistently for years, has more recently attempted to write in a more ""literary"" fashion, but his prose (and particularly his penchant for long interior monologues) have begun to overwhelm his narratives. There is no reason why a strong horror plot and inventive, sensitive prose cannot co-exist -- King has proven that they can -- but a careful balance is necessary. ""Lisey's Story"" doesn't achieve that balance. The plot, such as it is, is weak and obscured by the effects, which largely seem to exist for their own sake rather than to explicate story and character.The book is a love story intersecting with a horrific personal history, and Lisey herself is an appealing heroine, but not enough to overcome the many problems. Reluctantly not recommended."

136087,1,"Defective Product, Unwilling to replace",Received the product in 10 days. Product looks good but defective. More than half of the DVDs do not work in the DVD player or computer. Seller stated that he would replace but after more than 2 weeks had not replaced the defective product. Will return half of emails about defective product. Would not recommend. Looking at a product I paid for that does not work. Purchase at your own risk.
136137,1,Infinitely annoying,"It is hard to convey how annoying this book was;I kept thinking it would get better, but it culminated in anti-climax! Every historical personage from the 1700s was dragged into the novel, with no particular reason for being there other than as a hyperactive name-dropping exercise. The contemporary characters were simplistically drawn and cliched. This is certainly NOT Le Carre, Ambler, Furst, Chandler, Deighton, or any number of others... The story wasn't as good as The Da Vinci Code, although it was compared to it (although the writing of the Da Vinci Code is similarly wooden). I kept thinking it would get better, and midway it became simply a challenge to finish it. Don't waste your time or money."
136167,1,"Awful, Waste of Time","As a young American interested in New Zealand, I ended up feeling sorry for the Kiwis that this guy emigrated there. He comes off as a pretentious, sniveling liberal, and his warped political ideology permeates throughout the entire book. It was creepy for me to read about his young wife, annoying to sit through his constant name-dropping (as if anyone cares who you went to Harvard with, dude) and almost unbearable to trudge through his sick liberal fawning. Here's an evolutionist torn over whether or not trees have feelings. That sadness you get because a forest was cleared? That's because you are a created being with a connection to nature. At age 63, this guy has learned nothing. And his writing is so boring. I almost wanted to visit New Zealand less knowing he is there. Sigh."
136174,1,Does not work for most of our computers,"This converter did not work for most of our Intel computers (Xeon E7330 @ 2.40GHz ""Tigerton"", linux 2.6.24).On the other hand, the converter did work on a few Intel computers (Xeon E7330 @ 2.40GHz ""Tigerton"", linux 2.6.26) through a PS2 KVM switch.The problem was in the converter because, we have a different converter with does make everything work when the different converter is in the same place."

It could take forever to check out someone with mutiple items, its very slow slow slow. Also cash drawers have cheap plastic money holders that break off on first use. the entire register is plastic everything breaks the locking key is a joke. Do not waste money or time on this one its going back to amazon."
136243,1,Not For Me,"Sorry, but I wish that I would have saved my money on this one. Maybe because I'm a Jay Hickman fan is the reason that this one let me down. This one isn't as raw with the language as in some of the other comedy albums but I just didn't enjoy it."
136292,1,Cannot recommend it,"After less than one year, I am shopping for a new phone. The handset does not work anymore. I replaced the battery thinking that was the problem but it wasn't. When I click on one of the lines, there is either no sound at all, no dial-tone or anything OR it is just static and fuzz.I hope my next phone lasts longer than this one did!"

136408,1,I'm SO Disappointed!,"I can't believe I waited all this time only to be disappointed in this album! While I do enjoy some of Missy's work, this album is lacking in a lot of ways and many of these songs don't sound like the old Monica I used to love. Yes life events change us all, but to the point of making mediocre songs??The only tracks worth listening to IMO are ...Knock KnockBreaks My HeartGo To Bed MadWhat Hurts The MostI also love What My Heart Says and was disappointed to see it wasn't on this album.As for After The Storm, I'm selling it ASAP. It's not even worth buying."
136435,1,man this stuff is ok,"slipknot are a really ok band. There's nothing I enjoy more than locking myself in a dark cupboard, beating myself with a stick as I listen to Iowa. The problem with some people is that you are so narrow-minded that they refuse to dare to enlighten yourselves to the full range of sensations that is Slipknot. They rock so hard and bad that they make Bon Jovi look like your granny. Iowa kicks off at a sensational speed but unfortunately tends to lag towards the end. I think slipknot should stick to what they do best instead of lapsing into Gary Barlow territory."
136564,1,they have to stop,"What is this?? all these punk...pussy bands sound like a bunch of teenagers in a garage band that have no talent. listen to the lyrics, sounds like sonnie and cher. dont listen to yellow card, blink 182, new found glory, or this.

136625,1,Less Than What You Pay For!,"Very disappointed seeing what came in the mail after a week of waiting for it to get to my home. The violin came fully assembled but was missing a string that must have broken while in the mail. The rosin crumbled in my hands upon attempting to use it on the bow. Finally, the money I paid for to get the violin and accessories did not even include a digital tuner as wit was advertised with. I will be returning this product immediately and renting from my local store, who I know to be at least reliable. Can't wait to get my money back to invest elsewhere!"
136630,1,Stupid and boring,I know this is supposed to be a comedy of some kind but I found it stupid boring and offensive. Why don't you ask the millions of people murdered at the death camps if they think it is funny?
136770,1,"Oversized, not 100% cotton","Disappointing. The seller needs to do a better job of letting the customers know that the T-shirts sold on the same page are not all the same material. I wanted 100% cotton. Two shirts were, the two others were cotton/poly blends. I also wanted size medium. The tent-like proportions of their mediums are ridiculous. It's at least a size large, edging towards XL. They're cheap so I'm keeping them but I won't be buying this brand again."
136772,1,Activity Center should be sold with doll.,"You really need the center to play with the doll unless you have other interactive pieces at home. The food for the doll comes with the center as well as the rooms that make it toddler aged...my daughter wanted it for the potty training area but when she got it, she realized the doll didnt undress to actually train her.It is a must buy if you get the doll; just try to buy on sale. I don't like it because it is hard to store. It is prettly flimsy to break down with every use. You will need somekind of container for the pieces or they are easily lost."

136838,1,"I lost 20 pounds, but felt terrible.","He's on to something, but not quite there yet. I lost 20 pounds, but felt terrible.Dr. Atkins outlines his diet featuring no carbs, but as much fat as you want. I ended up eating a pound of bacon for breakfast, and decided this wasn't such a good idea. I recommend you go see a dietician instead. Of course, it COULD work for you.The book takes a simple idea and repeats it over and over again, until you are convinced it will work for you. Not a great read, but I guess that is not the point."
136847,1,"Good diet, poorly written book","The diet works, but the book is very poorly written. Instead of explaining how and why the diet works, Dr. Atkins presents conspiracy theories, promotes his own (expensive) products, provides lots of pep talks, and uses ""case studies"" to ""prove"" his diet works. If you want to understand the science behind this and other low-carbohydrate diets, read ""Protein Power"" by Michael and Mary Dan Eades."
136891,1,disappointed,"Very disappointing book. While it has great photos of Staffies...some of which look very much like my Staffie Sheba...Dr. Fleig has a very superficial grasp of the history of the breed in question, and an astonishing ignorance of related breeds, especially the Pit Bull. Perhaps he should stick to German breeds, and leave the British breeds to someone else."
136896,1,Not as good as I hoped,"I saw all the great user reviews on this and thought I'd try it. However, it just didn't work for me. Every chapter was predictable and the characters seemed trite and shallow. It is rare that I start a series and have no desire to finish it - but this is one series that I won't bother with."
136919,1,weak writing,"I do not understand how one becomes a bestselling author writing rubbish like this.My complaints are not so much about the story itself as they are about the prose. There is nothing fresh about this book. The prose is cliche, predictable and lacks depth. Therefore, if you are cliche, predictable and lack depth, you will probably love this book.There are so many amazing writers out there, I do not recommend this one."
136952,1,What happened?,I'm with most people here; what the hell is up with Patricia Cornwell regarding the change of format in this book. Very disappointing to say the least and not at all what I had expected in the Kay Scarpetta series. I'm halfway through this book and am ready to be done with this series if this is what I have to look forward to in the next five or six books. I will give it a few more chapters and move on to another author without even continuing the rest of this series if she keeps this style of writing. What a waste
136959,1,Poor writing,It seems like a completely different person wrote this book. I literally had to check if the author was Cornwell. It was poorly written and just constructed.
137001,1,Gibson,"I used to be a fan of the Patricia Cornwell, but her last few books have been very disappointing. This book is the WORST. I did not even bother to finish it.. I only gave it one star since that is as low as you can go. If I had the option, I would give if NEGATIVE stars. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. I was glad she was getting back to the Scarpetta novel series, but this was a HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT. I am a fan no longer."
137084,1,Sucked,I guess for the price this is what I should have expected. It was cheap plastic material. And the shoulders were so wide on it. Didn't even use it. I ended up buying a new one.

137129,1,Worthless,"I live five miles from Sears Tower, in Chicago. I get 16 over the air channels in analog all of them watchable. Channels 7, 9, and 26 as well as low power channels 23 and 48 come in as good as cable TV.Now with DTV and various antennas all I can get is THREE stations, 7, 9 and 32. And 7 and 9 are all pixleated.So it seems 16 watchable channels have been reduced to 1 watchable DTV channel. So much for progress, but I guess it's much more important for rich people to be able to have yet MORE cell phones (that's what the TV signals will be used for) than let poor people have TV.I guess I'm gonna have to come up with money for cable.DTV is NOT a good thing for us urban poor."
137175,1,And you will know us by the trail of BORING,"All the ingredients that I enjoy in trail of dead. Are suddenly, like the bands name dead. It's like their not even trying. I get the feeling that all the passion was taken away from this album. Conformist and mediocre."
137178,1,Terriable Movie IMHO,"All right I know everybody loves this movie and what not,but i've seen it and i love horror movies but i just can't stand this movie it's absolutely horrible,the little girl was horrible even though she was younger.but then again think of a young Dakota Fanning.The dolls were just stupid and the dad was actually a likeable character in a way. I think the one hooker should have lived instead of being killed off. Don't be mad it's just one guys opinion.Jake"
137269,1,All the best songs were left off........ WHY ?,"First of all let me start of by saying Woodstcok was great. The media blew up what happened on Sunday night, when all it was, was us blowing off steam at the hole production of it. Now onto the CD, it is half way decent but there is no and I mean no emotion in it at all..So many songs were left off that DEFINATELY should have been on there. For example Sheryl Crow's version of ""Sweet Chlid of Mine"".....Mickey Harts -Fire on the Mountain, Collective Souls version of an OZZY song, Kid Rocks cover of a John Fougerty tune, and they could have picked a much better song from the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, like half way through their set when they just JAMMED. Plus countless more. Whoever put this together should be fired. As a vetran of both Woodstock 94' & 99' I am very dissapointed in this CD, I hope whoever is listening will take my advice and put out the real WOODSTOCK 99' Album, it will do alot better than what you have here. Enough said ! -Mike-"
137298,1,The velcro attachment lowers sanding efficiency,"I use the Fein sander constantly as I build my Cozy MkIV aircraft: both the cuting blads and the sanding attachments. The velcro-attached pads suffer from problems. First, the velcro allows motion between the pad and the sandpaper so that you only get part of each vibratory strok transmitted to the paper. Second, the hooks (the fuzzy part) tend to pull off the sandpaper with moderate use causing an even less direct connection between the pad and the sandpaper.I recommend you stay away from the velcro sandpaper and instead use the adhesive-backed sandpaper. I get long life and very efficient sanding action with that sandpaper."
137548,1,Worked fine until it failed... 3 days after purchase,"Set it up, it worked great for a little over 24 hours and the base unit failed to connect to my laptop. Returned and purchased a different item. Didn't want to take the business risk of replacing with the same thing. Can't afford to be offline for as long as it will take to get this replaced.To be fair, I have used several Plantronics headsets and they were all great... my all time favorite is now 10+ years old and not compatible with Google Voice (though it does work great with Cisco IP phone). I also have a bluetooth Plantronics Voyager headset for my iPhone and it is also very good."
137652,1,Not so pleased,"Had a 60's Big Ben like this bought in early 60's. That one lasted over 30 years. Have had 2 Repos like these and they are crap. Each one only lasted about 9 to 10 months. Have had others too (wind up one) which don't even last a year. Have hearing problem and electric buzz clocks don't wake me up. Do what you want, but remember I warned you not to waste your money"

137712,1,Is this really a Cole Hann shoe?,"I am so disappointed in these shoes. They are cheap, they look cheap, I am begining to wonder if there is any leather in them at all. I have had many a Cole Hann shoes and never in my life have I seen anything like these. Do not buy these if your looking for a good pair of shoes. Will look at some Johnston Murphy's, something. If I can return, I will."
137765,1,"I'm glad there's a 2nd edition, the first one needed help","Caveats: Although I have an MS in computer science this is my first book on design patters. Having said that...The best thing about this book is the title.I found the first edition of this book somewhat disapointing. It seemed to drag on terribly slowly in places. It seems that the authors relate much more to teaching and haven't quite hit their stride in writing on the same subjects. Interestingly, the most effective chapters were the shortest, those at the end of the first edition. They seemed to be little more than outlines hurridly gathered for press and they were the most concise and effective and not bogged down with tedious discussion.The book's layout was also diapointing. Among other things I didn't care for the margin notes. They were distracting and there were far too many to be effective.I'm looking forward to comparing other books on the subject.May subsequent editions shed more light."
137780,1,Women and the Early Church,I read this book because it was required for a seminary class on early church history. I was really looking forward to it because all the previous reading was about church fathers. It was awful. There have to be good books out there that aren't so negative. I want to know where all the women were who were making great strides for the church. They were not in this book.
137847,1,"show, don't tell...did an editor even read the manuscript?","to say i was disappointed in 'relativity' would be an understatement. i was enthralled by mitchard's 'deep end of the ocean'and left in awe of her ability to write some of the most poignant literature i've ever read. then came 'the most wanted', which left me wondering if it was written by the same author. but i'm willing to forgive and move on. so, when i saw she had a new book out, i was elated!and then i read the book. 'relativity' is 80% prose, telling, and historical account and about 20% dialogue and action. i found myself skipping page after page after page in hunt for -something- to pique my interest. i never found it. as a reader,i feel cheeted because 'relativity' could have been so much better if mitchard had stuck to the old publishing mantra, ""show, don't tell."""
137862,1,Adobe FramaMaker 7.0 Classroom in a book,"The disk that accompanies the book is inaccurate. It made doing the lessons very confusing. I finally had to contact Adobe Press to find out why the lessons and the sample files didn't work as mentioned in the book. They said the disk had errors, they would send me a replacement. But I'm still waiting... it has been over two week since they said they would send a replacement.And of course like the series of books of the Classroom in a book... it isn't very detailed especially on authoring structured FrameMaker."
137881,1,Gay Is As Gay Does,"Who does this J. L. King think he's fooling? If you are a man having sexual relations with another man, you are gay. Personality and style have nothing to do with it. Anyway, this book was weak. King just kept repeating himself throughout the entire book, especially in the chapter 9 where it was the most obvious. Then he went on about all the ""fine brothers"" he was with. Shoot, maybe if I were a man, it would be easier for me to attract a man. This book didn't tell me anything that I already didn't know and I'm glad that I didn't spend any money on it. Read this book only if you are totally without a clue."
137899,1,A Titanic blockbuster,"The producers of this movie may believe that all the special effects make it unsinkable, but after hitting multiple icebergs of bad plot, bad dialogue, bad character development, even bad background music and a bad torch song, it sinks like a lead zeppelin. The special effects were fine, but I can't say they were better than the special effects in the 1972 version. I can't believe that the same director who did Das Boot and The Perfect Storm did this; it is not Wolfgang Petersen's style to keep things moving from one special effects crisis to the next. This film is the most pathetic so far this year, and I hope it doesn't even garner any special effects Oscar nominations; it's better left on the bottom of the sea and forgotten. There may be survivors in the story, but there are none in the audience."
137999,1,I don't recommend purchasing this product,"The ""Instapark Dual Garage Door Laser Parking Guide System"" is a poorly designed product. The laser light turns-off before a person completes parking. It is impossible to align the two laser beams correctly in a normal two car garage. I would not recommend purchasing this product."
138013,1,Avoid this Product,"I agree with Ordonez below: this product will stop working for no apparent reason. I believed the hype and went ahead and purchased it. After a few week it was like ..wham.. no longer working. The computers do not even recognize the product, the blue light doesnt come on..nothing. I contacted sandisk for a replacement and they have not replied since. It just doesn't make any sense. This is how bad rep starts with a company product; word of mouth from disgruntled customers. However I will try to contact them again"
138159,1,Disappointed,"I've been a fan of the Globe Trekker series, and I always liked Megan McCormick. However, this video was disappointing. There isn't a logical narrative to this video. As others have complained, having two hosts didn't work.What does it say when I forgot I owned this video until I stumbled across it?It didn't offer me surprises or compelling reasons to visit a place that hasn't been better covered by others like Rick Steves."
138265,1,The author hated his subject and it showed,"I wish I could give it zero stars or minus-20. Terrible book.BLENDER Magazine dubbed it THE Worst Rock Biography of all time, which is why I bought it off e-bay - just to see how bad it could be.It lived down to my expectations."
138336,1,Not recognized,"No joke, I have two burners, one I bought just a month ago, both do not recognize this media. These drives recognize other media of lesser brands. One drive is a Mad dog, the other a panasonic."
138375,1,Assembly line crap,"I can't understand the popularity of these books. The villain is one-dimensional. The children, despite their various ""talents"" are frustratingly unresourceful. (They're in trouble, they have a sympathetic *judge* who lives next door, yet they never ask her for advice? Perhaps they had their reasons, but they're not articulated, and so they seem rather useless and hard to cheer on.)There's a self-conscious and self-congratulatory cleverness to the writing. It seems ""Snicket"" just does not respect his audience.Skip this assembly line crap and read quality children's books that deal with the dire fates of orphans so much more satisfyingly.* Noel Streitfield's SHOES series. This writer has a very clear respect for her readers and doesn't indulge in cheap melodrama.* The Wolves of Willoughby Chase by Joan Aiken. Very similar themes, but SO MUCH BETTER!"
138406,1,Horrible waste of time,"I consider all the Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen movies monstrosities. I think the el cheapo sequels to Disney movies are a complete waste of a blank DVD and I HATE straight to DVD TV specials. They have many common negatives - terrible dialogue, dumb plots and cheap animation. Alpha and Omega TAKES THE CAKE. This is the first movie review I've done on Amazon because I feel so strongly about how terrible this movie was. It was not my choice, I wanted to rent Despicable Me from Redbox, but I listened to my kids and decided to give it a chance. It was the worst children's movie I have ever seen. Unrelateable characters, stupid storyline, un-entertaining dialogue and odd, out-of-place insinuations for a children's movie. It's so bad I'm feeling a little ashamed I've spent the past 5 minutes typing up a review. I guess I figured I might save some unsuspecting parent from having to endure the worst hour and fifteen minutes of time in front of the TV they will ever spend."
138442,1,"Get ""Armageddon"", please.","I will only give you three lines to describe the flick: a negro american president - people being warned of the ominous danger several months before the impact and a national lottery to choose the ones who will go to the ""Noah's Ark"" (instead of preparing the whole thing secretly and putting aside the normal citizen as it is and as it must be) - Would any person with a minimum sense of reality believe that? - Finally, an unnecessary dawdling of a tedious plot threaded with unsubstantial clichéed characters following the most banal and predictable unpredictability. Make yourself a favor and get Armaggedon, a western-in-space that will make you think of a post-modern version of ""The Dirty Dozen"" or ""The Magnificent Seven"". More fun, more epics, and --being a scifi-opera--, more credible by far than this ""Flat Impact""."
138541,1,Great series . . . but do not waste your money on these DVDs!,"First off, as others have mentioned, the images have been cropped to create a ""fake widescreen"" effect. And the night time scenes appear as day time scenes because they didn't bother to fix the levels on the transfer. There are really no bonus features to speak of. No 5.1 mix. It doesn't get much worse than this. Save your money hope that they get this right some day."
138649,1,Poor rendition of Nobel,"Movie did not reach expectation based on novel. Lead actors were ok, but plot wasn't well established. Character interaction was weak."
138654,1,HUGE disappointment,"They rushed the story, screwed up just about every major point of the book, got rid of Molly and most of the makeup artists that helped Cinna, Woody acted way too sober to be Haymitch, the ""girl on fire"" dress wasn't impressive at all compared to how the book described it, I couldn't get a feel for any of the characters, and overall I felt like if I didn't read the books, I wouldn't have a clue what the hell the movie was about. After being let down by how the third book was written and seeing this movie, I'm under the impression that the author doesn't care about her audience because now she's making bank."
138692,1,Words that don't go together (with apologies to George Carlin):,"Jumbo shrimp, Random order, Pretty ugly, Army intelligence, Baby Grand, Act naturally...And now:Erotic comics."
138715,1,There isn't a zero-star rating?,"Another ""Lifetime"" plot, another set of poorly conceived characters, another bad piece of writing by Oates. Does anyone really take her work seriously? If so, can they enlighten me as to why?"
138736,1,Disappointed,"When I ordered this dvd I thought that it would be great to have ""A Christmas Carol"" in blu-ray but I was terribly disappointed to find they didn't colorize the movie. Imagine a blu-ray vivid color dvd of black and white. Why would anyone do that?"
138748,1,"Really, really bad.","I don't know why I bought these... they are horrible! They're dry, thick, chalky... you need a LOT of water to wash them down. I'll finish the box, but would NOT recommend them!"

Just the same old stuff you'll find in Patricia Cornwell's worst books (only not as skillfully written) and in dozens of other books trying to emulate her success.You've got an improbably perfect female coroner, flirting with an ex, a small town that hides secrets (worst cliche of all ) and both graphic physical and sexual violence involving kids in an attempt to shock and titillate (and sell books) from a safe distance. It's so shallow and the mystery so contrived and obvious that I have no doubt it will hit the bestseller lists so everyone who reads it can feel good about deploring the violence it depicts (all the while loving every juicy detail). I'd rather read a book with more insight into real human behavior or with something braver to say."
138842,1,tutle wax blue color,This wax is OK. Not great but I would use it again if it was available on the shelf but for the price online it is not worth it to me. The 'color' stick is a crayon and really doesnt do much. As stated in some other online advice 'your girlfriend's fingernail polish comes in more colors and works better'. I tried the fingernail polish and it works. The color stick crayon works as well as you would expect.
138863,1,Had none of the adventure of the first,"My expectations were somewhat high after the quality of the fist book. I was very disappointed at the lack adventure in this second book. There was a lot written on wall hangings and feelings and clothing - but just not much adventure, fantasy or plot. There was an awful lot of repetition - I mean near duplicate paragraphs about what had already happened. So I plodded through it with the excuse that it was just a bridge to the third in the trilogy."
138904,1,Diaper Weenie!!!,There isn't a plastic diaper can in the world that doesn't absorb baby stink and diaper genie is the worst. I plan on buying one of those metal bullet shaped cans with a lid and some tough bags.
138920,1,One of the worst books I've ever read.,"It's the '60's in Berkeley. Lindy & Sam, awash in drugs, hook up in one of the most bizarre co-dependent relationships you'll ever read about.Lessons Rich Shapero needs to learn:1. Just because you think you have something to say doesn't mean you can write worth a damn.2. If you are going to self-publish, please spend some money on an editor!3. LSD-induced ramblings are interesting only to other people who are tripping.4. Don't quit your day job."
138925,1,BEST LEFT AS ROADKILL,"I found this book in a street gutter. It had obviously been run over multiple times as the spine was destroyed and tire tread marks were displayed prominently on the cover.I normally have sympathy for such books and am against book destruction and have been known to do the repairs myself. But after I read the first few chapters, I discovered that the proper place for the book WAS under the wheels of a semi truck. I returned the book the next day happy to see it ground into the pavement and eventually disintegrated."
138961,1,not worth ur $$$!!!,"this movie was soo terrible i just forward the whole thing to the end. i felt like i wasted my money. what brought me in was the cover, and i knew it was a B movie, but this was just something you would see if you was really really bored or something. not worth the buy, maybe a rent."
138968,1,could have been great...,"... I spent half an hour on this game before getting bored out of my mind then another painstaking half hour TRYING to enjoy it but it was a lost cause (Was that a pun?). This game could have simply been GTA with a little twist and it probably would have been a top seller but instead it fails miserably.The enviroment may be huge but it ALL LOOKS THE SAME! The gameplay is unchallenging and there appears to be no enemy AI at all. All in all the whole thing becomes repetitive to the point where you no longer care about the story line or the character, or what the hell you're supposed to be doing. I hate to be blowing a trumpet for GTA San Andreas, but at least I got to know my way around that game without a map because there was enviromental change between cities and an engrossing storyline. Oh and you could jump out of planes in that game too!"
139011,1,got wrong item,"We ordered three such hand exerciser, one of them blue, but we got a black one instead. We should be sent the right item."
139032,1,Had 2 and both stopped working within 6 months.,"Five years ago, purchased two Morning Industry locks (that still work to this day). Later, when we wanted to add keyless locks to the other outside doors, Morning Industry had re-designed the locks. We bought two and the unlock function on both doors began working sporatically, requiring more and more attempts to get the doors to unlock. Then, they simply wouldn't unlock the doors - all within 6 months. Keyless Entry Locks are not cheap and, if I had it to do over again, I would not invest the time and money for this keypad lock."
139115,1,Tired and emotional,"This novel kicks off with the old chestnut (at least to moviegoers): why did Mr X kill his wife? It then delves into the past (which is meant to be the present) to tell us. What results is a strictly white-tie-and-tails melodrama - one that feels closer to the 1900s than the 1990s - of betrayal, jealousy, stolen kisses etc, among the Britsh upper classes. It might have been fun, but Mason adopts a ponderous, self-consciously 'poetic' style, attaching enormous weight and significance to every turn in the story. There's a lot of regret and moaning about the follies of youth, but zero spontaneity and very little worthwhile insight. Sorry, but this one was a major drag."
139187,1,Lame,"Braff and Bateman are funny actors. The plot is so lame that it defies explanation. They do the best they can with their parts, but the movie has very few laughs. I tried to explain the one funny gag about the ""yes"" ball to my brother. Nothing. It was a bad sign. Watch Scrubs or Arrested Development in stead."
139225,1,If only there was no star,The only reason I am giving this one 1 star is because that is the lowest it goes. Now don't lission to what anyone else has said on here about this cd. It sucks!!!!! THis is one the worst cds I have ever herd by metallica well this and reload and there verson of Misfits. If like real metal then don't get this one. Get old metallica like anything before the black cd. Well S&M was ok the newest cd St. whatever is better then this crap. What where you thinking Metallica and the rest of you people for saying buy this what are you smoking crack or like 10 or somthing. Get over it Metallica is dead musicly. You know who has never changed Slayer and they came out the same time as Metallica and has alwas keep it hard. If you are looking for a old band that still rock pick up anything by slayer. Because Slayer fans would kill metallica fans even one of the members of metallica said this. So leave metallica alone and go with Slayer. Hail SLAYER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
139228,1,"Horrible, awefull, terrible, pathetic","What else is there to say? This albumn proves that Metallica should change their name, they have nothing in common with the Metallica of old."
139256,1,very diappointing,"I was incredibly disappointed. I loved the movie and all the great music in it, and wanted the soundtrck because I recently became engaged myself. It was mainly the background music, except for two songs. I wanted ""My Girl"" , ""Chapel of Love"" not 30-90 second blips of background music. I would definitely not buy this if you were hoping for all the great oldies loves songs that were in the movie."
139304,1,Not a Masterpiece,"Some songs have a good into, but that is where the ""good"" ends. Track 4 is good for the first few minutes then it goes down hill from there. Most of the solos are to long, some of the solos are WAY to long.Most of all, the recording quality is HORRIBLE. Put this cd into a high quality stereo system - an amp/preamp combo w/ high end speakers and cd player - and you will know what I mean! Few albums released in the eighties were recorded this poorly."
139379,1,"Wow, was I ever disappointed","I read so many reviews that this new Metallica CD was going to be spectacular, so maybe I had my hopes a little too high going in. Even still, this CD is remarkably average.The drums sound horrible. The snare sounds like Lars is banging on a garbage can, and there's NOT ONE GUITAR SOLO on the record. None. What happened to Kirk? It's not just the drums that sound bad, either. The vocals are strikingly harsh.I listened to the whole CD right after buying it, and when it was over, it dawned on me that I couldn't remember a single song. There's nothing memorable about ANY one of the songs. NOTHING. The songs are all longer, they're faster, they're more complex. But that doesn't make them good songs.I've never sold a CD back to one of those used CD stores, but there's a first time for everything, right?"
139383,1,metalli...!,"if this was any other band, this cd would've never been released. the production is terrible. the mix is so muddy, you cannot hear the guitars (and speaking of which, where are kirk's blistering solos?). james sounds like he gargled a bucket of rusty nails before singing (or should i say straining).i really wanted to like this cd too, cuz it's been way too long since metallica put out a good cd.go buy anthrax's 'we've come for you all', or some meshuggah instead."
139399,1,One word,"I have one word for this album - Metalicrap .... Whatever you do, don't buy it. It is complete and utter garbage."
139400,1,This is the best stuff I've ever heard!!!,"I love the new Metallica album! I love that they got rid of those anoying Kirk Hammett solos. They really should just get rid of him because obviously they don't need him anymore.Ilove the drop C tuning. It sounds so good to me! Where did they get that idea?The lyrics are fantastic! They are like poetry or something.The drums are so good! I like how they sound so raw.This is got to be Bob Rock's best production effort up to date. He's gotten so much better since the Black Album.Robert Trujillo must feel so lucky to get to use his awesome talent and show it off with this band.Anyways, got to go. I must go listen to the new Metallica album until I sleep or until I start to feel the St. Anger 'round my neck so that I can hang myself!"
139422,1,St Poser,"These guys need to pull their heads out...go home...put on Master of Puppets or Ride the Lightning, and rediscover what made them the band they are(were)in the first place. Musicians do grow and change etc...and thats great..but this is more evidence the once mighty Metallica is trully dead. After the 2 disappointing ""Load"" albums....I had hope for a killer metal album....but no...Cliff Burton must be rolling over in his grave.....this just sucks.St Anger?? I dont hear anger....I hear ""cha-ching!""And now we have James singing on CMT Outlaws concert...whats that all about...whats next a duet with Tim McGraw?? And claiming some sort of kinship with Waylon Jennings...yeah right...he wasnt even a twinkle in his mothers eye when Waylon Jennings was doing his thing....pure poser. All the fame and money has turned a once killer band into a pathetic joke of their former glory....sad."
139429,1,And you thought S&M sucked,This album is so bad that after getting duped by saying they were going back to being hardcore again i literally shot my cd to death. Load and Reload were horrific and S&M was a joke and Saint Anger left me disillusioned. I think Metallica should hang up the towel and leave the music scene. Even now live they are slow and terrible. This band needs to be beaten with stick.
139494,1,What stinks so bad,"Its St. Anger by Metallica.What happened with these guys. They used to know how to play. Now they are just raking money in on their past success. I was truely excited when I heard they were comming out with a new cd, but imagine my dissappointment when I heard it. The drums sound like buckets and paint cans, the vocals are just plain lousy, James stop trying to sing, you've lost it. The lyrics are stupid and unbelivabley repetative. Someone said the songs were disjointed. Now that is an understatement. There are little snippits which sound good, but then they decide to go and make it sound bad shortly after that. I would give it 0 stars, but that isn't an option. I'd rather listen to Brittney Spears than this cd. Heck even Barney sounds better."
139534,1,Ugh! I Hate It!!!!!,"Jamie Foxx's single ""Unperdictable' is one grim reminder that it's better for most actors and actresses to stick to their to the on-screen exploits and not venture into the realm of music. When I heard it for the first time,I felt an overwhelming sense of exasperated repulsion and how I got myself through this track the second time,only I can tell. ""Unpredictable"" is miles away from being a noteworthy song,and on certain occasions youeven doubt its authenticity as a song. This is the title-track of the Oscar winning actor's second album of which I haven't listened to any other song. But if the title-track is going to be so repulsive,one can easily guess what the other songs are going to be like."
139619,1,Le Crosse WS-1611TWC-IT,"I am so disappointed! I recently purchased and installed a model WS-1611 weather station. Since I had about 10 feet too much cable, I made the mistake of cutting the cable and installing phone connectors. Of course, the station didn't work. ON PAGE 52 of the instruction book I found the warning not to cut the cable. It would have been nice to have the warning at the beginning of the installation instructions, but I accept this was my mistake. I spliced the original cable parts together and the station still didn't work. I ordered and installed a new thermo-hydro sensor, since the instruction book ON PAGE 52 stated that the sensor might be damaged. The weather station still doesn't work, and everything has been restored to factory specs. I am angry that I spent well over a hundred dollars and countless hours trying to get the station to work. I believed that La Crosse made quality instruments. I guess I was wrong"
139655,1,Totally Pointless,"This is one of the most boring books I have ever read in my life!! It was so anticlimatic, which was even more disappointing since I had to force myself to the end hoping something would finally happen!! The author doesn't do a good job with the relationships surrounding the man character Hannah and therefore falls totally short to engross the reader to even care what ultimately ends up happening to her.It was a total waste of my time and my money."
139679,1,decent,this album is a collection of decent classic rock. it consists of the not so often heard rockers of the 70's. its nice to just put in the player and listen straight through.
139706,1,"Too Different, I miss the Older Books","This book started out ok but into the fifth chapter it got a little bit ridiculous, that's when I stopped reading it. I have read a numerous amount of her books and this one is the worst yet. It was so predictable. I did read the last chapter, just to see what happened, and I would have to say that I knew the ending before I even finished reading it. --This text refers to the hardcover edition of this title"
139708,1,Pitiful,"Danielle Steel has a singular, peculiar talent. She can create wealthy, gorgeous characters and sweep you up into their dramas. You really CARE about whether Tiffany gets Reginald in the end, because you sense that Danielle really cares. This book is a pitiful attempt at humor. You sense that she was just sleepwalking through it. When will readers stop buying these silly little short stories that are priced the same as full fledged novels?"
139742,1,Horrible!!!,This shower head just worked for about 5 days and then it broke.. I don't recommend this if you like excellent quality!!
139772,1,"Amazingly bad, but you really do need to have it","How often can one have the absolute worst of anything? Seriously, I really don't think anything worse has ever been recorded in the history of mankind. I plan on burning copies and giving them away as gifts for years to come. The ""Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds"" has to be heard to be believed."
139841,1,Not useful at all.,"Invest in a higher-end product. This one remains silent even when the entire figurative Canadian mounted police has you surrounded. And then, when you don't care or want to be informed, it will give you a slew of alerts indicating that someone has entered or exited the grocery store. Two stars for powering on, having lights that flash, and making a noise, even if it isn't useful at all."
139894,1,throws my tone out the window,"i play alto, flute, and oboe in band and i tried these reeds because i wanted the projection, but still crystal clear tone quality. they did project, but were difficult to get a good solid sound out of. they did help me play better in tune. but my peave is when my tone isn't perfect, and my least favorite is when the tone is fuzzy and airy. this is the type of tone that was produced with these reeds. sure they'll last longer, but i have found it difficult to articulate. so if you want your sound to be clear, my opinion is to find other ones."
139957,1,This film is pathetic,"I LOVE RICHARD CHAMBERLAIN, but this film is horrible!! I don't know how I could spend my money on this!"
139982,1,Harry Potter,"Harry Potter seriesHarry Potter is on the ALA top 100 banned books, and I agree with it being there. Harry Potter should be banned because towards the end of the book, Harry and the slithering snake start to become very vicious. When the kids read this it would most definitely give the kids a bad perspective, which is that it's o.k. to be fierce. It should also be banned because of the wizardry and witchcraft. When children read about this it will concoct images that black magic and sorcery are real, and they could try and use it, when they can't. These are just a few reasons that the Harry Potter series should be banned.My rating- *"
140187,1,Black students. Middle class teachers. Unsupported claims.,"As a high school teacher and university instructor in the education field, I have had a variety of experiences to help inform my teaching and my work in helping others become more effective educators. Possessing a desire to instill multicultural and multiracial appreciation within the teachers I work with, I thought Kunjufu's book would bring forth ideas to better prepare teachers to work with non-white students. I was apprehensive at first after reading the back cover and skimming the first chapter. After two chapters I had learned nothing and was very disappointed by the lack of evidence provided for the mountain of claims the author makes. The best part of the book is the references page and having been published in 2002, the little data Kunjufu does provide is out-dated and has been done better by other authors."
140212,1,It's a portable rip off,"I thought of buying this thing then i looked at the reviews, this thing is horrrrrrriblllllllllle! No car adaptor? No contact in the manual? 16 hours to recharge? Heavy battery so hard to control and the thing really only works for a month or two? I didn't even have to buy this thing to know that it's horrible. If you're reading this and have a big road trip for more than about 3 hrs, you should send this portable rip of back.I blame Toysrus for selling this faulty piece of merchandise, wait, why call it merchandise, i should call it JUNK!I'M GOING SOMEWHERE ELSE!!!!!"
140218,1,BAD PRODUCT,"toys r us would not take this item back because I did not have the receipt...it was a gift for my son on his birthday and did not work from day one....I feel this is wrong on behalf of toys r us for NOT backing the products that they sell! They knew it had problems...I believe this.I am writing to the main office of toys r us, a letter to the editor, BBB, and anyplace else I can find."
140251,1,Shaky Cam = The Ruin of Film,"What could have been a great horror film is marred by the fact that the director and cinematographer couldn't manage to keep their camera still.All other elements of the film become incidental in the face of this unfortunate stylistic disaster. It isn't filmmaking, it's unnecessary frenzy. Nauseating."
140294,1,Rather Boring,"I had been wanting to brush up on some urban legends, so i purchased this book (used, thankfully). I normally enjoy the Idiot Guides, but this one not so much. I read it in about 2 hours time.I started it like any other book, but it quickly became quite boring. i ended up skimming through most of the book, only slowing down when i came to the actual stories. I liked the actual urban legend stories that were including, but that's pretty much all i enjoyed.I wouldnt recommend this for anyone who wants to add the actualy Urban Legend tales to their library. I only spent a few bucks on it, but it seriously wasn't worth it."
140332,1,DON'T BUY,Monitor quit working just after the one year warranty ran out. Don't be fooled by the price this is a throw-away item. It isn't worth the cheap price. Please spend a little more and get one from a reputable company.
140364,1,Melusine: A Myestery Review,"It is a hard to read book for children going into 4th grade. It it`s not that great because of swearing, and other innapropiate things. Sorry but I think this book is badnews!"
140393,1,Not as bad as Lommel's version but still a stinker,"I mistakenly thought this was the new version by Ramzi Abed...but realized after five minutes I was wrong. Acting is pretty bad and effects laughable, but not gross like the Lommel piece.Still not great. Even DePalma's version was less than expected. To date, the best Black Dahlia movie was the television film starring Lucie Arnaz in the late 70's. Now, that was a great one, if you can find it."
140404,1,"Just horrible. Don't waste your money,","Disappointed. The cover became rotted and torn in less then 1 year. The cover it replaced lasted 5+ years. This item looked nice, but not worth the money."
140479,1,Waste of time!!,Comparing this book to Jean's Auel's Clan of the Cave Bear is an insult. The gruesome details of the people of Ka's brutality and hatred were a real turn off. It's also hard to believe Eena and Agon's 3 year old son could be so consumed with hate for his father that he vows to kill him. And all those similar names! I lost track of who the characters were. I forced myself to finish the book because I kept thinking it might get better. I was wrong.
140571,1,Horrible,"The most uncomfortable thing ever, would not recommend. It hurt my toe and was a bloody pain to put on."
140622,1,You get what you pay for,"I'm not an audiophile, but I do like a full, rich sound when listening to music, whether through headphones or with speakers. I bought these headphones as a spare pair after reading the rave reviews that said the sound is incredible for the price.I think it's safe to say the sound is about what I would expect for a $30 pair of headphones.Maybe I'm spoiled by my Ultimate Ears set of ear buds, but the sound out of the Sennheiser headphones seemed tinny and weak, and the bass was very mild. I guess the headphones will be OK as a spare set for emergencies, but if you want full, rich music I suggest you break down and pay for quality headphones like Bose, Shure, or Ultimate Ears."
140637,1,Sennheiser PX100 -11 review,"I have to agree with the person who had the channel failure. I love the design and feel of this model headphones, but the left channel gave out on mine in only a few months. I had been very careful with these headphones because they were an investment (for me at least), but was so disapointed that they are practially useless now. Shabby cord design and construction shouldn't be on the menu at this price point!"
140690,1,Dull,Im not sure why this book received high ratings. It was meandering and disjointed. The characters were under developed and their motivations were vague - vague even for folks who enjoy classic literature and ancient human beliefs.
140696,1,Painful,"I read this because a colleague loaned me her copy and asked me to. I have never read a more uninteresting book. I didn't like any of the characters, nor did I care what happened to them. Before you buy this one, please skim the beginning chapters at the library or online. The book is apparently free online (I can see why) and know that it doesn't get any better from there- one long, boring road trip...a random string of events LOOSELY tied together with a ""plot."" Ug. What a waste of my valuable reading time."
140756,1,Mind numbingly repetative,"This game was fun for about a week. Then you realize every thing you are doing is the same thing over and over. All the stores are the same, just in different parts of Manhattan or Jersey. I used to look forward to getting home to play this game, but after I took down the Tattaglia Family and a good portion of the Cuneo Family, I just lost interest and never played again. I paid $50.00 + tax for a used game and the fun lasted a week. Not the best purchase I ever made. I know everyone here loves the game, and my experience with the game was very much a 5 out of 5 rating, but only for the first few days."

140889,1,Disappointment - Customer Service at Magic Bullet,"When my wife has questions and called the Customer Service at Magic Bullet, they are just rude and don't know how to entertain their customers. The product is not user-friendly just like their Customer Service. I would suggest don't waste your time and money on the machine as well as the customer service over there."
140890,1,CONSUMER BEWARE! PRODUCT NOT LIKE IN INFOMERCIAL!,"This product marks the first and last time I will buy a product from an infomercial. The concept seems nice, but it cannot actually crush ice, chop onions, etc. I found this machine to be useful in making salsa, but put in anything harder than a tomato and the pathetic little machine fails. If you are considering buying one, just let me know and you can have mine!"
140905,1,Less than overwhelming,"Really not as good as I expected from some of the reviews posted. I take a lot of scripts (at least 4 different ones daily) and a lot of supplements (in the dozen range) too, but I did not find it easy to cross check in this book.I would not recommend it very highly..."
140961,1,"Good writing, but disappointing as a novel","Although McNeal is a fine writer, the characterization of this book as a novel is extremely misleading. I found the frayed story lines and disappearing characters to be quite frustrating. The ending is especially unsatisfying."
140962,1,Good Riddance!,"I began this book with a lot of enthusiasm. As a native Nebraskan (albeit from the ""big city, Omaha"") I eagerly began this book with hopes to reconnect with my state roots. Didn't happen. Small town living as described could have occurred anywhere and quite frankly, I wished it had. This book depicts Nebraskans and farmers, alike, in a poor light. The characters are so one-dimensional; none are developed, not even the protaganist. Book starts out well--fast paced, introducing many interesting characters and story lines--but then just drops off the cliff. No continuity. No development. None of the characters is likable. This would be acceptable if an author draws them so at least the reader cared about them. I didn't care about any one in this book. Except for Marcy's father. He was painted with nice, subtle strokes. But everyone else is so flat and broad they are caricatures. And this is an insult to honest, small town Americans."

141254,1,Is Spencer for Real?,"I choose books-on-tape to travel with that I might not ordinarily buy and read such as mysteries or authors I've never read before or I'm uncertain about. Spencer was one such author. I can't understand how such poorly written garbage can gather the good reviews this book has generated. It makes one question the system. Very poor plot, characters, dialogue, etc. Also, Spencer should pay someone to do her reading for her. Her delivery only made it worse."
141300,1,An all time low,This book's only good characters were Swartt and Veil. Sunflash was the most stupidest badger of them all. He was invincible in the book and that ruined about everything. The woodlanders were just rip-offs of past Redwall characters but some parts were good.
141310,1,What Some Crap!,"Bought this ""software"" elsewhere. (Fry's)Absolute CRAP! I've been in software for over 30 years and have not seen many applications as lame as this one! Over four hours and the Crap App won't install correctly. This is Pathetic!

141312,1,This sucks,"Of all the season review dvs's, this is by far the worst. This season review should have been a celebration of the 19th title, instead the producer has tried to show what he can do with editing.

141393,1,Easily the worst metal album ever released.,"I will invite you to watch some of the song videos of this album, search up for Frantic, St.Anger and Some Kind of Monster. If you know how to appreciate real, good, classic metal, your ears will bleed.Whoever thought this album was in need of a special edition certainly did not listen the album itself. It sucks, it's terrible; Loud as hell, there's no musical patterns, the instruments sound awful, specially the drums. And the compositions are those of a 10 year old that thinks he can do music. Easily the worst metal album ever released. EVER."
141402,1,Stay Away!,One would be better off using on-line tutorials..... I hold this volume in the most minimal of high regard...
141404,1,Not Hesse's best.,"Blah. Though a very short novel (just over 150 pages), it seemed to take forever. The characters are not compelling and the plot is uninspired: After a sullen and listless life, having spent far too many years in a loveless marriage, the arrival of a friend from the East spurs Veraguth to consider if he could leave his home and live again. Most of the rest of the novel is spent on him considering the question, with a personal tragedy at the end thrown in for good measure. There's nothing particularly insightful, and we don't feel a lot of sympathy for someone who seemingly gave up trying more than a decade prior. After all, if the main character of a story can't be bothered to take an interest in his own life, then why should we?"
141431,1,New name and description would help out a lot.,"This book is simply a list of other books. The ""description"" of the book seems great. It talks about controversies with Pearl Harbor, and etc. However there are merely just 3 lines in the entire book on these controversies like Pearl Harbor. Keegan just states a book title, and gives a line or two, and then gives another book. It just was not what I expected from the description. If I would have realized it was a big ""list of other books"" I would have chose something with informational content of WWII.If you are already a huge WWII itellectual and looking for other books, then it is a great list. But I think something went wrong when the editors was naming the book and writing the description."
141459,1,Two words - Henry Hazlitt,"You can waste your time reading this book, sure. Go ahead. Or, you can pick up Henry Hazlitt's ""The Failure of the New Economics: An Analysis of the Keynesian Fallacies"" and watch as an infinitely more talented writer debunks and destroys Keynes and his faulty logic. Not only does he translate the thoroughly unreadable Keynes, he shows the reader multiple instances where Keynes simply contradicts himself, yet keeps right on chuggin' (savings = investments; somehow in his General Theory, Keynes manages to both prove and disprove this). He explains in lucid terms that Keynes ""General Theory"" isn't ""General"" at all; in fact, it can only be applied correctly in static situations. In most cases it can't account at all for dynamics. Don't waste your time on this piece of socialist garbage."
141678,1,Fine for those who already understand calculus,"This textbook is generally understandable, however, it seriously lacks thorough explanations of basic concepts. It is clearly written for the math proficient, not those who always struggle, even if we've made it up to the calculus level. Two major problems: 1) Its explanations are in math-speak, making it difficult to understand; 2) It contains exercise problems that were never explained in the chapter. My professor seems to think that its okay to put those problems in the homework. The result is that I am guessing and working backwards from the solution to figure out how the heck the problem is solved, and I usually don't get it. I took precalculus with Blitzer's textbook, which is far more interactive, application-based, and clear. Is there a calculus textbook as wonderful as Blitzer's precalc?"
141684,1,sensitive American's enter at your own risk,"This book's sole purpose appears to be a venue for Mr LeCarre to vent his anti-American anti-Bush and Blair feelings. In doing so, he creates the dynamic duo of Teddy and Sasha, lovable and sympathetic characters, but in today's real world they would probably be considered ""losers"". Their ideology is certainly no more noble than that which LeCarre finds so contemptuous in the Bush administration. And the ending was unbelievable - at best. Shame on Mr LeCarre for wasting his great talents and imposing his personal views on loyal fans. This reader would have loved a few hours respite from a subject so well-worn."
141686,1,A 200-page page-turner. In 464 pages.,"I picked up 'Absolute Friends' on the recommendation of a friend and my general like for LeCarre's work. I cannot remember the last time that a simple work of fiction of this length has taken me so long to read. Most disappointing is that I couldn't put it down because of the seeming promise of something truly spectacular about to happen -- but as the pages on the right side of the book got thinner and thinner so did the content. Mundy was a brilliantly-penned character, many of the entanglements and relationships are truly interesting and engaging, but unfortunately all this does is serve to engender false hope in the reader for a climax that will never come. The end of the book reads as if LeCarre was on contract for a certain number of pages and bailed as soon as he reached the minimum."
141731,1,Poorly written,"I thought the topic seemed interesting. The writing is hard to follow, tons of names which probably mean a lot to the author but not to the reader. It reminded me of memoirs written by family members, great if you know them, but only if you do. Too few facts, too many personal experiences which are of little interest to people outside the family circle."
141758,1,No radio reception,"I bought this for my NYC apartment and got absolutely no radio reception. It was meant to replace a Sony which was being moved into another room. I got decent reception on the Sony so it is not the location. Very frustrating. The thing looks good and simple to us, but it is yet another Amazon product that I must return."
141769,1,What happened?,"How did this book ever get published? I am so disappointed. I have read many of Barbara Taylor Bradford's books, but this one is a total waste of time. The book seems very disjointed and the characters have no personality and definitely no ""substance."" It is rare for me to not finish a book, but this one I cannot force myself to complete."
141887,1,Not Wodehouse. Not even close.,"I echo those who thought this book an idiotically poor excuse for British humor. Somthing has to be ""humor"" before it can be ""British humor"".The fundamental difference between P.G. Wodehouse and Alexander McCall Smith is that Wodehouse is FUNNY. This book is not funny. Nor is it interesting, insightful, or otherwise worth your time.Much of Wodehouse is now in the public domain. Choose real laughs for free instead of paying for what might as well be blank pages."
141922,1,Cheap product,"I was encouraged by some favorable reviews, until I received the product. It is one of few universal chargers around. This is the only positive feature. The cord/wire is cheap and creates static anytime it moves or comes into contact with anything. It is a simple product but somehow not very easy to use. The FM transmitter, even on international and mono modes, is very weak. The signal was unintelligible less than 18 inches from the receiver. I'm looking for a product to use with the new ipods, but this is no solution. Really a bad product."
141955,1,Horrible excuse for music!,"Don't waste your money on this CD. Don't download this song. It's a horrible excuse for music. Get Mariah, 50, Brandy, Monica, Ja Rule,or even Ciara instead."
141978,1,What a waste of time,"I think the director of this DVD must misunderstand FOX's slogan... ""Fair and Balanced""........... what Fox means is they are the one news network that makes things ""fair and balanced"" by trying to offset the far left leaning of vistually every other news source out there.... NBC, ABC, CBS, MSNBS, CNN, TNT, etc..If ""slanted news"" is REALLY his concern, why pick on FOX for leaning to the right ?Why not go after EVERY OTHER News Channel that leans to the left....WAY TO THE LEFT !!The reason of course is he has an agenda..DUH"
141999,1,Why would they do that?,"The case is nice, but for the life of me, I can't understand why they would design it specifically for the Coleman roadtrip grill and then not allow enough space to zip it up with the grill handle attached. I like the protection it provides when stored in the RV, but I would think twice if I had it to do over again."
142029,1,Nothing New,For most logistics professionals this book won't offer much new information. All the math in this book is already well known....so don't expect any new handy dandy formulas.
142042,1,DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME THIS MOVIE IS THE WORST,"I would put this movie in the top 10 of the worst movies of all time. I give this movie a ""1"" beacuse it is not possible to give it a -4.I love simple and fun movies, but this movie is not worth wasting the time to watch or the time to drive to rent it if it is FREE."
142122,1,McCulloch Elec Trimmer,Purchasing the McCulloch Electric string trimmer was my first bad product experience for an item purcased through Amazon. This trimmer was defective out of the box. Was not even able to get it assembled because trimmer shaft and shaft to motor head would not connect. The bolt knob to tighten once together was also bent. I also purchased the Grass Gator 8010 Load N Cut Trimmer Head which on the site indicated it would fit the McCulloch Electric Trimmer. The Gator Head also will not fit this trimmer. I immediately returned all items on my order.
142342,1,Too Repetitious,"I'm a Brian Eno fan and was drawn to this album for the glowing reviews but I found it to be very repetitious. It's almost as if you're paying for a single, not an album. Do yourself a favor and buy his Apollo CD instead, which is a far more interesting and moving piece."
142483,1,The First effort NDV,First let me say that im a huge fan of progrock as well as spocksbeard. However i do realize that at some pointevery band will have a disappointing output at one time or another. This Cd is a first for spocksbeard but you haveto remember that at is NDV's first time in the drivers seat. I dont have the subseqent CD's have higher expectatins for themgiven the reviews that i've read. This album does have the potential to grow on you so imgoing to give it 3 stars.
142487,1,Garbage,"This chest is proof that there is no way to get off cheap, when looking for a place to store your children's toys. While there may be some actual real wood on this thing, most of it is pressboard or other poor product. The hinges are held in by small screws, two of which have already fallen out of their pre-drilled threads. We had to replace them with larger screws. I doubt these will hold, either, as the wood is of poor quality. As for fitting--the cover is askew and impossible to align properly because it is predrilled. My advice is to spend a little more. You'll be happy you did. It would have been nice to keep this for another use, but the minute he outgrows it, we'll use it for firewood."

142653,1,Disappointing,"I always enjoy Madeleine Wickham's writing but this was fell quite shirt of my expectations. It was dull, uninteresting and predictable."
142662,1,Another voice heard from,"I am afraid that I must register another opinion. I am aware that I read a book that would be considered ""art"". I am aware that I read a book that attempted to personalize the recent history of a very turbulent country (Chile). Initially I thought of it as something like a popup book that you opened to see many wonders, then closed it and put it back on the shelf with no particular effect on the reader. Lately I have begun to think of it as a Latin American soap opera. I can almost watch it in my mind, the characters running in and out, panting with lust, pantomiming when they were in their silent period, whipping peons, riding horses, flying balloons, crashing cars, having sex in marriage and out, being born, dying, arguing with everyone, pots flying, people flying, curses given, etc. I know two movies, at least, were attempted from this material. I think a conventional Spanish Language Soap Opera would be a more appropriate medium. Not my cup of tea."
142751,1,Disappointed in movie,"I was really looking forward to seeing this movie. When I watched it I was REALLY disappointed. Michelle Williams performance was outstanding. It took so long to lay the foundation for the movie, I found it boringggggggg."
142796,1,Is there some music behind the base ?,"Hi,We know that Madonna is inovating, but I think she missed it here. When listening this album on an ordinary cd-player things will be ok. Ones you use a better quality stereo tower, you do not hear any music anymore. It's only heavy base you hear. The music would be a 3-4 star if you would leave out the base.Sorry Madonna, CD will not be listened to often."
142797,1,It's Rather Pathetic,Madonna's face looks like an old piece of shoe leather. Poor thing....her music isn't much better.
142815,1,Takes poor pictures,You need to take pictures where there is a lot of light. The pictures do not come out very crisp at all. My 5-year old was very disappointed with this toy.
142827,1,Boring,"This is a disappointment. I have tried several times, but this CD is not does not at all adress the listener. DJ Vadim can wake up a croud when alive, but this CD will most likely put you to sleep. Save your money and go to a club instead"
142851,1,[...],"A waste of paper and ink - [...] - LIES, LIES & more lies...never seen so much non-evidence in all my life + it's written like a story, not an investigation. Virtually everything has been PROVED to be false, misleading & just plain wrong."
142900,1,CRAZY TAXI RIP OFF,"Its basically the Simpsons version of Crzy Taxi-Hardly different just a plain Rip off,They never used there own game engine just coppies.Buy it if you never plaid Crazy Taxi or even if you never got enough of it.NOT a classic just a Twin clone."
142902,1,There's no reason to get this game.,"This game is pretty boring. It's just like Crazy Taxi, just with the Simpsons as the cast. The game is just the same thing over and over again, you pick up passengers and drop them of at the designated area in the time limit you are given, so the game is to repeticious. I rarely play it anymore. The only thing I really liked were some of the silly things that the characters said, other than that, there's no reason to get this game."
142954,1,There are better baby stain removers out there.,"This was really disappointing. It just did not remove stains from my infant's clothing. I found the entire line of Caldrea baby detergent to be over-hyped and over-priced. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. The smell became really annoying over time, too."
142992,1,Not So Good,I would call this a typical Latina pop album. I didn't find anything particularly inspirational about this album. The rhythms are okay for dancing. There isn't anything particularly stellar or stand-outish about this album.
143027,1,nice work---no substance,"I bought this when it first came out and returned it because the book doesn't live up to how it was promoted at that time: This is NOT a text book and will teach nothing about how to apply make-up. It does have good pictures of excellent work done on famous people and it give s brief biography of Mr. Aucoin, but it makes no attempt to explain how and why he did what he did. It is a nice portfolio but not a text book.Go to Mary Quant or Bobbie Brown for that."
143037,1,It is rugged. Functions intermittently; practically useless,"Plus notes - It is well constructed and installation went fast.Then I plugged in brand new batteries and followed the programming steps.It took hours of repeated tries, removing the batteries overnight, and trying different brand of fresh from the package batteries.Finally it worked, so I called my wife over to show her how to unlock and lock our garage door, and it would not work.Again I pulled out the batteries and left it overnight. The next afternoon I plugged the batteries in, and it worked in both directions - lock and unlock. My wife tried it and it did work. Later that day, I wanted to lock the door, and it wouldn't work.Again remove batteries over night. Next day OK for one operation, then it wouldn't work.The final straw is the business I purchased it from thru Amazon will not return phone calls nor emails.Do NOT buy one."
143053,1,Far fetched...,"I thought that this was supposed to be a true story(I may be wrong) but if it is supposed to be true it is rather far fetched. One example is that Kimmel tells how her dog would pick her up by her diaper and put her back it the yard. Sure,maybe in a Disney story! And how she didn't say a single word until she was three and then she said an entire precocious sentence where she strikes a deal with her father. I don't know what it was but something just turned me off to this book. I must be honest, I never even finished it because I was so unimpressed. I grew up in a very small midwest town similar to Mooreland and I just don't feel that her story rings true. I don't know what else to say aside from read the first couple of pages before buying the book (especially in hard cover)and see what you think. If you decide to purchase this book based on the other reviews I hope that you will find pleasure in this book (unlike myself) and prove my review wrong."
143055,1,Reads Like Bad Essays From Creative Writing 101,"I am amazed that this hodgepodge collection of mediocre stories got past the mail-readers at a literary agency, let alone got published. This reminds me of the self-indulgent, awkward autobiographical essays that beginning writers grind out in ""intro to creative writing"" classes. Save your money -- don't buy this book -- ask a friend to write down his or her own childhood memories. They'll probably be more interesting."
143064,1,eb% Vibrant Eyes,This product was a waste of money. One of my 80 year old clients asked me to order it for her so I did and purchased some for my self. It did not have any promising results.
143076,1,A Disssapointed First Timer,"This is the first book I read by Phillip Margolin. The book started-out well - and I liked the plot of Daniel Ames, small time boy making it in big time law. About 120 pages in things started to get confused for me. Maybe am slow to catch on, but I got confused with all the characters and confusing plot line. The end came together for me - for cut out the middle 75 pages."
143117,1,Great Streets = The Grand Canal with Nathan Lane,Im so glad I saw this. I am extremely upset with the quality of the vhs along with the missing section which is the reason I bought it in the first place.
143161,1,DO NOT PURCHASE THIS ITEM!,!WARNING!Do not buy this memory card. This memory card is a complete waste of your money. I would recomend Sony's 8mb memory card.So this reveiw is practicly just a warning.!WARNING!DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!
143253,1,"Should be titled ""Rap History""","Not a whole lot of information about Eminem in this book. I made it about one third of the way through before I started lightly skimming the pages looking for ""interesting"" points. This book bounces around a lot and at times completely diverts from the title topic all together. Absolutely nothing of interest regarding Eminem in this book for me.If you are interested in some very basic information regarding rap ""history"" written in a long drawn out boring way, then this is the book for you. I personally didn't bother to finish reading it. Luckily, I didn't pay for this one."
143275,1,"Started out good, went downhill FAST","The first half of the film is really good, then it goes downhill fast, and by the end I didn't merely dislike it, I hated it. It has a terrible ending. Whoever wrote this, thanks a lot. Don't put yourself through it."
143317,1,Move over Plan 9,"I was amazed at the animation in the theater, it must have covered the rancid taste, as curry did before refrigeration. My first viewing on DVD left me thinking great movie for MST 3000. Natalie Wood, Liz Taylor, Mickey Rooney, Shirley--- There are great child actors out there, but you won't find one here, and being the essence of the plot, it's lack sinks the ship.George has got to go back to the Drawing board, this movie only sports top notch animation. Its not fit for human consumption."
143339,1,Star Wars by way of the Muppet Show,"Phantom Menace is yet another example of Hollywood trying to create drama, suspense, and entertainment through the use of special effects without any real essence of well crafted storytelling. The movie is chock full of banal dialogue, along with ridiculously silly characters. Here you have human characters that are so one dimensional that you find yourself actually drawn in to the Muppets that appear in the film (Muppets you would expect in a Barney children's show). However, as is the trend in Hollywood, it seems that this sort of sophomoric movie-making is respected (i.e. ""Titanic's"" sweep of the Oscars a few years ago.) And I will state that Jar-Jar Binks is so grossly annoying and stupid a character, that his appearance would hugely diminish a great film, of which Phantom Menace is NOT. So here, the damage was unestimable. Stick with the original three, or rent it for your early gradeschoolers. Oh, by the way, the special effects were great."
143417,1,More of a hassle than help,"I bought this item for my first baby. To make a long story short, despite following directions very carefully, half the time the bottle either came out too hot, or still cold. I gave it up quick and ended up setting the bottle in a bowl of warm water from the microwave. Takes a little longer, but works everytime and it's not as annoying."
143421,1,Ahhhhhh!,"I hated this warmer!!!! I would put the exact same amount of water in for the same amount of formula. One time it would be too hot, another too cool, and another just right. Sometimes the warmer wouldn't even heat away all of the water! Then, somehow water got into the base, there must be a crack in a seal, and brown water would drip onto my counter. It was awful."
143433,1,A Bit Disappointed,"The Title of the book does not clearly define the pages that follow. I am disappointed in the way the book was setup, and content thereof. I expected the information to be more inspiring than it is. But, its an okay Devotional."
143468,1,Adventures In Boogabooga Land,"I watched this dvd with my 6-year-old son. He was not impressed with the music. He said he didn't like it. I asked what he would do to make it better and he suggested Tony Hawk. He did laugh a few times, such as when the monkey was on fire or when the squid was stuck to the monkey's face. I also let the movie keep running after the first time through and he did continue to watch it. But I don't believe that this will be one of his favorites. I do happen to know the third parable that the dvd was based on and it is a good idea in theory. I just don't think that it did enough to relate to the Bible. If there had been a better explanation of the Bible verses, it might have been better. I think it seemed more like 3 random cartoons put together."
143588,1,Terrible product.,"This is one of the worst reissues I have ever heard. The music is fabulous, but the sound quality is so poor you can barely hear any of it! Most or all of it seems to be taken from previous reissues, some with reverb, some with distortion or excess noise. The poor sound distracts me from hearing Bix -- a shame! Don't waste your money here."
143614,1,This Book was... umm... :-/,"Is it possible to review a book that nobody understands? Well, i'm going to give it a shot. Mumbo Jumbo is a book that no1 would read 2wise. In face, I don't see why any1 would finish it after reading the 1st 10 pages. The story skipped around so much that I just didn't care any more. When a character died I didn't think ""why did he have to die?"" or ""o-man, I really liked that character"". I just thought ""I wish all these characters would die so this darn story would end"". But unfortunately I had to continue reading. The way it was written just made me mad. The way he used ""1"" instead of ""one"", or ""1000000"" instead of ""a million"" just made me stop reading and try to find Reed's address and send him a dictionary. So I guess you could say I really liked this book. ""What?! HUH?? But you just said..."" Exactly, I don't know..."
143663,1,Very bad experience.,"The Panasonic ""Compact Fax and Digital Answering System (KX-FP145) is defective and your supplier - Shoplet - refuses to replace same with a unit which works. Spent two hours on the phone with a Panasonic Tech. Rep.who could not fix the unit's deficiency (extremely light printing image). She advised I return the unit to the supplier who - presumably - would send me a replacement. Shoplet advised they would not cooperate as it was ten days beyond their shipping date (April 7, 2009) so I am stuck with a defective unit. Please advise."
143722,1,It's Just OK,"First of all, if you do not live in the dry desert, don't bother. It's not crazy humid here but even with a little humidity this just adds to it. I always used very cold water and a ton of ice and it was barely ""cool air"". I think it would be good in AZ or NV but not worth the money if you live in the northeast like I do. After the first couple of uses I didnt bother with it any more. Waste of money for me."

143809,1,Wait don't get this DEMAND BETTER!!!!!,-----------2.0 STEREO ?!?!?!?!?!?--------------Had to give 1 star even though I love this film.From what I understand and if true can sum it up: Alliance (the totally crappy Canadian distributer) also owns Echo Bridge who is who bought the rights from Miramax.Also as the other reviewer mentioned this release is in the wrong aspect ratio. The movie was filmed in a 2.35:1 aspect ratio. This Blu-Ray is in 1.78.1 aspect ratio.It is possible both of these things are wrong (2.0 Stereo and Aspect Ratio) but that is how it is listed on the Blu-Ray case in front of me and I'm debating weather I should return it or not so I have not opened it yet.I was so looking forward to this release......bummer.Edit: 2.0 stereo and wrong aspect ratio confirmed see comment.
143820,1,author is stuck in the VH1 80s.,"This was hyped as a return to form for McInerney, so having loved Bright Lights, I gave it a try. But he's way out of his league addressing serious themes. And the never-ending references to high-end consumer products made me want to scream. This isn't the 80s and that short of shorthand (or crutch) lost its lustre a long, long time ago in a galaxy far away. It's time to accept that Bright Lights was the one good book McInerney had in him. Like Brett, Tama and the Flock of Seagulls, Jay belongs to another era."
143831,1,"Cd great........ book, not great","My husband is an AVID Dennis DeYoung fan. When this book came out he wanted it since Dennis includes a new song with purchase of the book. The book is I'd say good for the 18-25 group....anyone older would look at it and think ""expensive Harlequin romance novel"". Her sex ""scenes"" are pretty explicit... which in my opinion does not fit the rest of the ""Rated G"" book. Bottom line if I could have purchased the cd minus the book I would have."

143881,1,The worst Bond Film,"This is by far, the worst Bond Movie that has ever been produced (with the exception of Never Say Never Again.) Not only does it stray from the Original Roots of the James Bond Series, it takes place in a futuristic setting that hurts the movie. The movie does have some good scenes, but most of them are the ones that follow the pattern of the old James Bond Movies. Pierce Brosnan is a good Bond Actor, and he was great in the other three movies he made, and if this is his last Bond movie, I am sorry to see him go in this film. In all this movie takes number 20 in the list of Bond films, and I hope that the next one can save the series from Dying another day."

But, when I received mine there were two gaps in the top where the pour-through portion of the cap goes. Each time I started the blender, liquid would shoot out through these two holes. I called Waring, and they sent me another top, but it had the same problem. I eventually sent it back. It also didn't crush ice that well."
144369,1,A Good Thriller but with too many Technical Inaccuracies,"The witting style is good and it is difficult to put down the book after you have started reading in. However, there are way too many inaccuracies that even non-cyber-minded people can notice. <SPOILER ALERT> For instance, the author should know that tampering with a file, which is available on the Internet, *after* the file has been downloaded by people throughout the world, does not tamper with the already downloaded files; and the least that can happen is that people will notice that two versions are going around! </SPOILER ALERT>"
144383,1,A Real Comedown,"Having read The Davinci Code and having been fascinated by the research, I wanted to read other works by this author. This is the first of his books, chronologically, and when it is compared to his other work, is found to be the most disappointing. The plot is most predictable and the excitement that exists at the beginning tends to wear thin. As his first published work, it is possible to see how much he has grown as a writer. Although the book is a rapid read, it pales in comparison to his other works."
144405,1,Poor Performance,This glass baster looks great upon first inspection. The only problem is that the bulb does not fit tightly and it will not hold liquid. I did not return it because I have an older baster and used the bulb that was on it with acceptable results.
144544,1,frustrated,"listening to this book on CD, i felt as if i were listening to someone who had to write a thesis on the author of Lolita. Sho had to substantiate every thought and fact about this man according to a class she took, and a professor was going to grade her on every fact and footnote. i didn't like it. Please don't come crashing down on me for my response to this book. everytime i thought something very personal was about to be revealed or flushed out, it was cut short. I feel ms. nafisi kept an implacable barrier up which she put in place to keep the novel impersonal, and that barrier was to make it an academid thesis on nabakov, and in a sophomoric way. fine, but that's not what the book was promoted to be, and not what i would have purchased."
144563,1,The secret is..they're becoming rich by selling you this illusion!,"I had so many expectations about this book,but when I finally got it I was totally dissapointed, at the end I realized that all this ""secret"" boom is just a Huge commercial and marketing campaign created by a bunch of smart guys to sell millions of copies and make millions of dollars with this little bad book,movie, website.don't waste you money, don't make them richer by buying it."
144584,1,Fast thought for your brain,"One of the most stupid books I've ever (almost) read.There is something you can't deny: good publicity campaign. An empty promise otherwise. Nothing new or secret about the secret. The whole concept is plain common sense, you are indeed responsible for your life and you should be very careful with what you wish or are afraid of because both have a tendency to become part of your reality. But the way this book, with all those false ""doctors"" and ""authorities"" (like Joe Vitale) put it is just plain Disneyland: ""Think happy thoughts and you will fly"". And the focus is extremely materialistic and narcissistic. If you want to read about the same thing in a compassionate, deeper, almost poetic style, I recomend you Creative Mind and Success by Ernest Holmes."
144598,1,Oh - PUH-lease!,"Anyone STUPID enough to PAY for this book (which promises a great life if you just, basically: ""think positive thoughts"")-- YOU'RE the sucker.The author is laughing all the way to the bank."
144622,1,are you kidding???,"i tried the visualization!!! i envisioned my self in a ferrari with Paris Hilton and i tried so hard it almost came to me but the problem was Paris was in jail :(. so i thought mabey i should really ask, believe, and recive, that didnt work either but it did get Paris out of jail loool.and then when i thought it about deeply i found out the secret is not about me and Paris Hilton, its about the human greet and the overwhelming desire of people trying to control their life and accepting any brian farts(or according to the book ideas) that fullfills this desire of control that we are never gonna have."
144630,1,Infinitely Rehashed Message,"I can't believe the popularity of this book. Let's first set aside the ridiculous notion that we can all control the universe. If we could all control the universe, it would be chaos. When you boil the notions of the book down, it has a few very simple messages. Think positive, do what you should do, visualize your dreams. HEY RHONDA! That's no secret - its been rehashed by every self help author for over 100 years. For you to take credit for it is just silly."
144687,1,It Sucked,"The movied sucked, the best part was the ending. That actually was quite hilarious. Not worth the 99 cents though."
144729,1,"Far beyond ""poetic license""...","My wife bought this movie thinking it might be somewhat related to the story of Noah described in Genesis. Instead, they combined the story of Noah with that of Abraham and Lot, Sodom and Gomorah, and anything else the director had heard of from the Bible, and quite a bit just straight out of a Hollywood writer's doped-up brain. The opening credit talks about taking poetic license with the story, but I assumed this was to add in dramatic elements and theatrical depth in a very cut-and-dried Biblical account. But no, the melding of people that lived generations apart, and the blatant disregard for any sense of historical accuracy seems to indicate an attitude towards the Bible bordering on contempt or ridicule. Don't waste any time or money on this movie."
144767,1,Not much of a plot.,"Rather than being an action-oriented, plot-driven novel, this is a concept novel; the concept in question is: ""Remember that Dyson Sphere from the episode 'Relics'? It sure is BIG!"" Okay, we get it. But that isn't NEARLY enough of a concept to make an interesting story, and there just really isn't much else here.On the plus side, the writing itself is competent, and the characters stay pretty well within concept, so it's nowhere near the WORST Star Trek book I've ever read. But there just isn't enough story to make it anywhere near mediocre, either."
144838,1,"Nice history lessons, but storyline and characters feel forced","Its certainly interesting to learn about esoteric topics of history: who would not agree? But the question here is ""is this a good novel?"". I think that most people who are really familiar with good writing will have to say no.The characters seem to be pasted into the story in an artificial way, rather than fitting in naturally. They appear at all-too convenient moments, and one gets the feeling that one must force oneself to accept them.There just is not a good flow to this narrative."
144876,1,Package of two?,"$12 for two six-ounce jars is a little pricey, but that price for a single jar is ridiculous...especially when the description states ""Sold in packages of 2."". Closer inspection of the fine print in the upper header says $12.21/1 which contradicts the product description. It may be a good product, but direct misrepresentation of the quantity to be delivered is not a recipe for return business."
144877,1,"Confusing explanations, not enough examples","I find the book does not explain the concepts in a straightforward manner. Further, it lacks enough examples to show how the concepts work. Without these, it is very difficult for me to learn. I plan to buy another text to teach myself as this book is totally inadequate.I use the AP version of this textbook in AP Computer Science. The only way this version is different from the standard is that it includes explanations for a special set of AP classes."
144950,1,Didn't care for this book,"It has some okay designs, however none are 3D and the only two colors you get are orange and black. Now this is fine for Halloween, but they show you projects with blue, yellow and red too.The paper itself is very thin and the colors are coated onto the paper. This gives them a fine dust that comes off on your hands, so this may not be good if your child has allergies. Makes clean up necessary too. My child's hands needed a good washing afterwards. Make sure your child is dressed in old clothes as it may stain light colored ones. Don't use on a nice tablecloth either. It reminded me more of carbon paper then construction paper. The pieces are cut in squares. Looks to be about 6"" X 6"", so projects end up pretty small.This book wasn't at all what I expected and overall I was disappointed in the quality of the paper.I don't recommend this product."
144961,1,Nice idea - questionable reliability,"I'm dealing with mysterious system hangs and a ""Onetouch"" process that seems to launch randomly and take all my system CPU cycles so everything runs really slow. Killing the process fixes the problem until I reboot. But the hangs seem to be getting worse."
144991,1,bad!!!,"When I received my package, I opened it and found there is no protective materials in the box!! The bottle cap is broken and some of the liquids has come out!! so terrible."
145055,1,Pure Dribble,This may be the worse book ever written on handicapping.The author is definitely not a a horse player.Good title for a book that does not live up to the hype.
145066,1,the time life treasury of christmas,shows as the special edition which is 3 disc set....that is what I wanted....what I got was a 2 disc set which was not the special edition as shown.....very disappointed
145078,1,Don't egg them on 2,"I bought the experience box set (worthwhile) and thought that this looked dubious. Where is a complete version of Jimi at Monterey (once available on vinyl?) or Jimi at Berkeley (Once available on video?) Once upon a time we were suckers for poor bootleg records, let's not become suckers for re-packaged material that we already own."
145093,1,"LET""S COME UP WITH AN IMPRESSIVE TITLE TO OVERCOME TRITENESS","Did you ever wonder how these guys sit around and come up with a title that will make them feel good when they are introduced at a dinner of pinhead academics? ""Good evening, please let me introduce you to John Doe, author of Managing the Dynamics of ever-changing paradigms in cross-functional systemic horseshoes."" WOW! This guy must be smart!I only got about 2/3 thru this book before I gave up. Every time I turned a page I felt myself saying, ""Yeah, right!"".If it is possible to be trite and nauseatingly academic at the same time, this book does a magnificent job of accomplishing both."
145108,1,Worse than terrible.,"Not a single funny moment....neither one of my kids laughed once. Very very disappointing. My five year olds comment ""this is terrible, I like the first one best"""
145148,1,Totally Pointless waste of time,"What a total and utter turd this movie is. I feellike punching the maker in his face and demandinghe find a time machine to replace the 2 hours I wasted.And whats with the gratuitious orgasms ? Man we werehowling with laughter ! Dude, youve made the worstfilm Ive ever, ever seen. Ive watched films before I admitI didnt ""get"", but none ever actually prompted angertill now."
145217,1,How Does This Happen?,"A movie like Monster-in-Law makes me ask: How? Why?How does a studio manage to convince Jane Fonda and Jennifer Lopez to participate in such a horrible movie? How does such a bad screenplay get approved? How does such an unfunny, uninspired movie get financed and made? Why would anyone with a modicum of talent and good taste make this? Why would they want their names attached to such a train wreck?Seriously, I want to know: How? Why?"
145233,1,"Horrible product, didn't last a year","These were great at first, but if you plan to use the functions, (ie. phonebook, caller id, anything with the arrows) don't plan on using long. On all three of our handsets, the arrows just stopped working. I called Uniden and waited on hold for 31 mins. To which they say there is nothing they can do, we have to replace the units ourselves. Their warranty is only good for 12 months. So if you are 12 months and 1 day over, you are basically out of luck. BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
145331,1,"Inadequate, messy, and hype","I have read many e-commerce books, this one is part of my school recommended text and that is why I need to read it from cover to cover, else I would have threw it out few chapters later.It's a badly organised book that throw a bunch of IT-driven business concepts that has been around for many years, slap an 'e-' in front of it, and call it a 'e-business' book. It tries to depict 'e-business' to be everything, and teach nothing, tells you what you should do, but doesn't tell you how you could possibly do it, it tells you whats wrong in many business process, but does not tell you what is the solution. Most of the time, the answer will lead back to vaguely say 'you need integrated enterprise application' or 'you need to change'.I would prefer more focus and realistic books that does not pretend to be everything like those by Patricia B. Seybold, etc.."
145342,1,"This is why ""Nirvana"" was created","I went to the bathroom. When I was finished doing my business, I lifted up the toilet seat to check to see what came out. There in the bowl, swirling about, was the group Europe singing ""The Final Countdown"". What crap this group was!"
145430,1,Nice idea - poor finish,"I think most of the gushing reviewers here are in love with the ""concept"" of this film. I love southern colleges and the halftime experience too, but this movie is poorly made. Too cliche, too predictable, and overall just a simple product. However, until a good movie is made regarding this topic; line up and join the masses that seem to be ""falling over themselves"" about this movie based on the idea of the story."
145459,1,Wipeout,"I agree with the other people, this game is fun. But......for some reason i can't save it. if i do, it erases all my other saved data on my memory card. i suggest you rent it first, then buy it."
145571,1,It's off the hook,808 is DEFENENTLY OFF THE HOOK. THE GROUP BLAQUE HAVE VERY BEAUTIFUL VOICES. THEY CAN SING. Thier suits in the video was the bomb.
145615,1,The Ipaq 1935 CAN fit in this case!,"The aluminum is bendable, so you can squeeze the inside end clips in, to fit the IPAQ 1935. This worked very nicely.There is an inch or at the top that you don't need, but I still use this case, and find it adequate to protect the PDA. There is no other hard case which opens from the top, allows the USB/Charger plug to fit in the PDA while it is in the case, and allows the headphone to be plugged in. So.... I decided to keep the case .... until something better comes along."
145803,1,TWO TRUE GEMS,this album has two true gems: track 2 and track 6. The bass line in track 6 is a real masterpiece.Trouble is that i don't like the rest.
145855,1,The video quality of this DVD looks like a bad VHS copy.,"I agree with the others on screen adaptation quality. But the video quality is not up to par of other DVD presentations. After the dreamy opening credit, the video quality looks awfully hazy and just like a bad VHS copy. I didn't see the original A&E presentation on cable and have no way of comparing to it, but the video quality for this DVD set is TOTALLY unacceptable."
145961,1,I'm really rating the listing...,Consumer alert - this is the exact title being sold under a different listing on Amazon for about 1/5 the price. All copies are both Don McLean records and Madacy Label Group.
146001,1,"Misleading, not worth the money","I bought this book thinking there would be color illustrations and a diagram of the large Abalone Strips piece featured on the cover. Nope. The only color illustrations are the front and back covers. Inside, the book is black and white and please note: there is no diagram for the Abalone Strips piece. There are directions on what patterns to sew the strips, but you have to draw the piece yourself. I bought the book so I didn't have to draw the piece! Sheesh."
146012,1,"Like it is remains as it is, lame.","Its a movie about finding love, sex , quarrel , get back together , quarrel ..... You get what I mean?Unless you simply buy this movie just to see the two lead actors butt pressing upon each other, its not worth seeing.Acting wasn't genuine like as though they are being themselves which shouldn't be the case. In other words they can't act except for the bitchy boss. If you must, simply rent to see the short sex scenes or else pass this movie. Not worth it."
146023,1,"Bad Hasbro, Bad!!","Send Hasbro a message and don't buy this garbage. Stores can't keep basic figures in stock and yet these worthless wastes of plastic are taking up valuable shelf space. Kids and collectors alike hate this product.If you're a parent looking for a Star Wars toy for your kid, stick to the figures, movie vehicles, Galactic Heroes, anything else but this. I saw a couple of kids mocking this thing at Target last week and then move onto the Power Rangers because there weren't any ""cool"" Star Wars toys in stock even though they wanted some."
146123,1,No features at a premium price,"Mean Machine is an absolutely awesome movie. It's funny and entertaining in its own right, but for a soccer fan it's got so much added value, with both realistic and out-of-whack soccer moves galore.So why do I give this DVD 1 star? It should be obvious: On the back cover: ""Special features: English Dolby 5.1 Digital Sourround Audio, English Subtitles"" SPECIAL FEATURES??? Who the (..) do they take us for?? Not even a trailer. And there could have been so many cool things, like out-takes and the actors practicing their soccer moves...And how much do they want for this absolutely bare DVD?(....)! At a time when the feature-packed Terminator 2 Ultimate Edition DVD is available for a lower price, that's a bit much.In short, this is an awesome movie, but don't encourage this kind of exploitation by buying it."
146187,1,"A great film? Uh, no.","I can't believe this film got any kind of critical acclaim. The dialogue is ridiculous, things such as the soundtrack musical choices during parts of the film are bizarre and the acting is not exactly DeNiro-ish."
146271,1,I agree with one reviewer calling this book Vomit-inducing,"Definitely vomit-inducing. The author tried to make the hero appear as troubled and as tortured as possible - that he experienced the worst and most disgusting things that could happen to a human being, even as low as eating maggots. It was gross to say the least. The heroine paid a lot of money to experience sexual pleasure for a month, what she experienced was'nt pleasure at all. The sex scenes were devoid of any tenderness and emotion. They were so clinical, a sex ed teacher could have done a better job. The plot is not romantic, more horror than love story."
146356,1,PLEASE DON'T SUPPORT THIS KIND OF TRASH,"It is insulting to our real artists, embarrasing to our nation, and it only helps to magnify the egos of these pathetic celebrities. I really don't understand why people would actually give their money to Paris Hilton."
146424,1,Nothing but banging noises,"That's all there is to this CD. Just one banging high BPM noises after another. Track after track. The mix is almost incoherent at times and all the track sound alike. There is simply no melodies to distinguish one track from another. No doubt Carl Cox is one of the most famous DJ's around the globe, but this CD makes him look bad. One star because it's Carl Cox and another star for the ""live"" effort."
146487,1,Over rated,"In my opinion a good aurthor works in two ways: what he writes, and how he writes it. Salvatore has good ideas but his style of writting is simply too childish. His characters are realistic until they get into battle, where they are able to kill twenty enemies a piece!! (completely over the top, even for fantasy.)"
146496,1,What tape did they use to source this DVD??,"Without a doubt, this is the poorest quality officially released DVD I've ever seen. At first I thought there was a problem with my television set. I was seeing lots of fuzz around the edges of the performers - ghost (double) images, video noise in what should have been a perfectly black background...I switched to an S Video cable and it made no difference. And then I saw the glitch that really took the cake - a nice fat tape role and the picture momentarily went to black and white.Quite obviously - ZERO production went into this. They simply played an old tape copy of the show, captured it to a harddrive, encoded a low quality mpeg, and authored a DVD. I've done much better productions myself on my home computer.All quality issues aside - it's vintage Nazareth and I really enjoyed watching it - thus a two star rating."
146501,1,Cognitive Therapy,"The content of the book may be good, but the book itself is not worth it's weight in water. It fell apart, only used a few times and now I have to keep it on the desk to use it. It just fell apart."
146510,1,Junk,"Normally I don't mind buying third party products, but this cartridge was a complete waste of money. The toner cartridge has a roller that's supposed to evenly apply the toner, and this one screeches and sticks, so that most pages have varying amounts of cyan. As an added bonus, the printer only recognizes it as a 1500, not 4500 page cartridge.I've learned my lesson. Instead of trying to save a few dollars, I'm going to buy a cartridge that works."
146555,1,Don't buy this,"It broke on the second day. Either wait it out and just watch to be sure your kid doesn't open the fridge for a while, or find a better lock...this is a piece of junk. I want my money back!"
146721,1,Cheap @ any price,The consistency of rice paper; be prepared to wear a new pair once if you're lucky; Ironically they tear to bits on the 1st try yet are not silky either; Ladies beware.
146769,1,Same old stuff,"The first 5 in Stephanie Plum series are absolutely hilarious, then it starts going downhill. I really enjoyed first five books although Stephanie was getting on my nerves with her absolute terror of guns, but it was fun reading none the less. Then, I think, Janet Evanovich was starting to run out of the ideas. The Eleven on top is boring, boring, boring. Its more of the same old stuff-Stephanie is just as incompetent as she was in the first book, her love life is just as screwed up(choose Ranger already and be done with it), and her grandmother is just as nuts. Don't waste your money."
146802,1,Disappointing,"What's the difference between this film and ""Cool As Ice"" starring Vanilla Ice? This film has a better soundtrack. The only redeeming quality of it, is that there's a catchy tune during the end credits. The plot went nowhere, and character development was very underdone.10 years from now, people will hear the plot of this film and scoff at it at the video store. A white guy trying to get respect by winning a ""rap battle."" Yes folks, a ""rap battle."" These gangstas don't use guns to take out the enemy, they use raps. What a ridiculous film. Eminem needs to stick to singing and stay away from serious endeavors such as acting. Although this film was so poorly directed and had such a laughable screenplay that it didn't matter how good the acting was."
146881,1,Would not purchase again,"First the positives...delivery was prompt, good price. Now the negatives...my computer would not recognize the cartridges. Not a big problem, but the color is terrible...that IS a problem. Doesn't look anything like what I'm trying to print. The old adage ""you get what you pay for"" holds true in this case and I'll pay extra to have true color and skip the re-manufactures."
146930,1,Wrong Shoes Arrived,"I love the shoe that I ordered, however the one that Amazon sent me was a different version. I do not like them. I have sent them back for a refund."
146932,1,Too small and unstable,I just bought this potty for my 34 month old son. He does not like it one bit. As soon as he tried to sit down on the potty it moved under him. He is unable to sit down on it by himself. It is very unstable for larger kids.
146943,1,S3 poor quality,"I purchased The S3 with the Image stabilization being the primary reason. I own a Casio QV 3000 EX and a Fuji S 7000. The Casio with only 3.3 Megapixels gives better more natural images than the Fuji. The Canon S3 is the poorest of the bunch. The images on the LCD montor and the Viewfinder are dim and almost impossible to see in any kind of light. Canon told me to take out the batteries and the memory card , let it sit for 20 minutes and reinstall-did nothing to improve the condition. They want me to pay to ship it back for repair and I refuse to do that on a new camera. My rating for this camera is no stars.Tom"
146948,1,Nino vs Palm IIIx,"I have been a Palm user since their arival. But I thought I would at least give the Nino a try. The first 3 were broken. Missing buttons etc. The forth one worked great! I was happy! Then I had to contend with the Bloated code of Outlook. Even running on a 400Mhz computer I noticed that it was slow compared to the Palm desktop I was used to. Also I have a LARGE contact database, about 800 entries. Nino took 2 1/2 minutes to search through it! Palm took 13 seconds. The Nino is a real flashy device, just not very functional for large amounts of data. Palm machines are faster, but not very much flash. I am using a Palm IIIx now and love it! Nino now sits on my desk and keeps papers from blowing away... Gotta get my money back somehow. :-)"
146951,1,COM w/o ASP discussion! What's up with that?,"It astounds me that a 1500+ page book on Delphi 5 programming could present COM and not even mention its use in developing objects for use in Active Server Page development. I'd be willing to bet that 90% of all Delphi programmer questions about COM are motivated by an attempt to use Delphi for web development. And, under Windows - which is where Delphi plays today - that means ASP.It's like writing a treatise on the uses of rubber in commerce and industry, and not mentioning automobile tires.I think Oswald shot Kennedy - I'm no conspiracy buff - but it's more than a little puzzling that this book, along with the Harmon book (Delphi COM Programming) choose not to discuss ASP.What's up with that?"
146962,1,not with Motorola MR356,ear bud does work with Motorola MR356 2-Way CAMO FRS/GMRS Radio (Camo) this is a VOX only radio when using a head set.
147014,1,I Could Make This Up Too,"I found this book to be laughable. I believe that it's possible to decipher hidden meanings in what people say or write, but I don't believe this author has done so. As other reviewers have said, he gave no basis or back up for his methodology, and there was little to make me believe it was anything other than psychobabble. I even tried a few times to read the section of the ransom note first, then guess what he would say, and a few times I got it right. Whether she committed this crime or not, this book should not be seen as proof."
147077,1,DO NOT USE THIS VENDOR. AMAZON COMPLETELY UNACCOUNTABLE.,"Expedited shipping was erroneously entered for this order. Tried to change and then cancel it minutes after entry and repeatedly until it came to no avail. Refused package a month ago. Exorbitant charge made to my credit card and I will have to seek resolution with them, since Amazon takes no responsibility. Vendor has not responded to over 20 calls and emails to cancel/refund order.AMAZON PLACES ORDERS WITH SKETCHY VENDORS LIKE THIS AND THEN YOU'RE STUCK WITH ERRONEOUS CHARGES. BEWARE!!!"
147142,1,Attack of the 12 pack,"Interesting little gem which actually worked for 11 times 'til I got to the end of a 12 pack of water my wife makes me drink. Then it kind' a sighed, gave a short springy gasp and died. After trying several attempts as resuscitation, I left its brushed aluminum body lay silently on the counter. I informed my well meaning spouse of the contraption's early demise and blamed it on the water."
147152,1,Urgh - chauvenistic tendencies abound,"I got this book as a baby shower present but after the first few chapters I was disappointed and threw it in the trash rather than give it to another hapless soul. As parents, what kind of world are we making for our kids if we follow a book on child-rearing laced with the ""expert's"" male chauvenistic tendencies? For example, the author writes: ""Our true first born, Holly, came before all the other kids. Our second 'first born,' Kevin was... as the first and only male ... has taken on many first born characteristics."" (p. 5) A comment like this should be left in the Dark Ages. I certainly wouldn't want to see anyone's daughter (first born or not) grow up feeling less than equal to her male counterparts. True, the book presents some other practical information, but you're better off with books by Magda Gerber."
147179,1,Nothing New. Totally bored.,"Storyline very typical. Mad Doctor Taking over the world, and singing about it. Never been done, right? wrong. Dr. Steel, MST3K, And the Rocky Horror Picture Show, all feature singing mad doctors. I suggest if you want to be entertained that way, go to the other three for your jollies.I miss firefly..."
147182,1,Not for Adults,"This is a junior high textbook. It is not, as I had hoped, a book that will help an adult contemplate a career change to nurse mid-wifery. I am not qualified to evaluate it as a textbook for teaching career basics to young people."
147220,1,frustrating!!!,"I'm mad to have paid for this DVD! Mr. Pozo only teaches and demonstrates the man's part for most steps, which is frustrating since the woman's part is exactly the opposite. He goes through everything so quickly we kept having to stop and back it up. It doesn't teach you to dance, and it especially doesn't teach you in minutes."
147244,1,"Great Book, Horrid CD",Painfully academic in it's delivery and the staged negotiation scenarios are stilted and slow.Book is a good read and offers some good approaches and negotiating techniques. The audio CD is dull and is an uninspired presentation of good material.
147257,1,NOT what I ordered,"I ordered 2 packages of 10 ""emergency mylar thermal blankets"". When I got the package, there were 2 individual mylar blankets... not 2 orders of 10."
147302,1,"Twin Size, Huge Disappointment","I hate leaving bad feedback but I am extremely disappointed with the mattress topper that was sent. I ordered 2 of the same exact mattress toppers in twin xl throughout the past 4 years, and were very satisfied. I ordered 2 more of the same mattress toppers in twin and this is not even memory foam. It feels just like regular, cheap foam - this is not at all dense, and it is questionable to even call this ""memory foam."" I am very upset, and I apparently can't return it."
147380,1,Armband for shuffle - don't bother,"The iPod Shuffle is so small and light, you really don't need an armband. The Sporty Armband is about the size of a CD and could feasibly wrap around my arm twice. It is rather cheaply constructed, too. The Shuffle's nylon rope is sufficient to wear around your neck - don't bother with this armband."
147473,1,A good band that pulls too hard in both directions...,"All these guys have the talent. Vintersorg has an amazing voice, he truly makes my skin crawl in the screeching and his singing is a blinding sunlight from the despairing storm. I really can't stomach the unnecessary double bass blast beat druming that is carried out through the album. Its overkill and doesn't flow with the melodies. Rather, it conflicts with the keyboards and the riffage. With this being said I would much rather listen to EMPIRICISM or ARCAIC COURSE (with Vortex of Dimmu Borgir on vocals.)"
147505,1,Good phone sold with troublesome offers,"The Treo is an attractive phone, delivering well on the combination of phone and PDA.Realize, however, that you are buying in to a 2 year contract and rebates that take between 3 and 11 months to recieve.I have not recieved either of my rebates after six months, and customer service in locating the missing rebates is not up to the usual high Amazon standards."
147536,1,I paid for this book but never received it,El Caballero De La Armadura Oxidada / the Knight in Rusty Armor (Spanish Edition)
147565,1,No durable power of attorny,"I was very disappointed with the book because it did not contain a template for a durable power of attorney. The only power of attorney document I need to prepare is a durable power of attorney, and this was not included with the book, even though the Table of Contents and Index imply there is sufficient information to prepare this document."
147608,1,i've had better,dubble bubble has to be the worst buble gum ever invented. the moment you pop it in you mouth you can already taste the awful after-taste. and this crap is most rubbery than anything else.
147665,1,Seems like a forgettable made for TV movie.,"This is not a horror movie, more like a police drama with some graphic images. The police receive an email invitation to play online poker from some loony who calls himself The Card Player. The wager in this game is a girl he's kidnapped. Cops win and she goes free, they loose and she dies. Naturally to create some excitement the killer starts going for the police. Yawn.Good for a few chuckles (especially the music in the grand finale), but for the most part boring. My favorite scene is when some cops are looking at a map of the United States but Atlanta is located in Arkansas and Dallas is way over by El Paso!"
147685,1,Don't waste your money,"I have tried 3 different lanterns. First would not even charge up and light up. Second charged overnight and last less than 10 minutes on time. Third was better, it lasted 15 minutes with an overnight charge. Useless piece of junk."
147711,1,Riding?!? More like Parking.....,"I usually like Drew Barrymore, but this was not one I would recommend to anyone. Way too long, too hard to follow as it bounced back and forth in time, mostly showing us the worst the US has to offer in the world of white trash and heroin addiction. Not worth the money, the time or the effort to bother with. Girl goes out in car with guy. Girl gets knocked up. Girls marries worthless, drunken, addicted guy. Eventually she leaves and hopefully makes something of herself and finally lets go of her son. Scramble this and put it in slo-mo and that's the movie. Don't bother."
147744,1,"You get what you pay for "" Toy Vacuum""","The speed of getting the vacuum was awesome. But as for the quality of it. I would agree with other users. Very light, flimsy, cheap, and doesn't pick up that well but you get what you pay for. Def not a good vacuum for any home if you want to clean floor or tile. It does half the work it should do. I think if the amps were little higher it might have better suction. Other then that would never buy or suggest to anyone."
147796,1,Rip-off,These hoses suck! Bought two. Used one twice and had to trash it. Pressure decreased greatly and has multiple bulges. Second one did the same the first time we used it!
147814,1,Gilmore 8ply flexogen hose -- 5/8 inch -- 50 ft length,"I am only giving this hose two stars because it is HEAVY and simply not easy to use. Not only that but getting it stretched out to its full length is difficult due to its weight and the tightness of the coil that it was in in its packaging. I do believe that the hose will last me a long time and maybe the fact that it is so heavy proves it is well-made, but, if you are a woman without much upperbody strength and you do not want to struggle to move a hose from place to place in your lawn or garden, then, this is not the hose for you."
147941,1,Marie Antoinette,"This was an interesting book. The author is a good fictional author. However, having studied the topic of Marie Antoinette for several years, it kind of made me angry to read this book, because a lot of the book was not true information. For instance, Marie Antoinette has riding lessons at her home in Austria in this book. But actually, she did not ride at all until she came to France, and her mother did not approve of it at all. There were many other made up things, too.I thought that it was a good book for people who don't care whether the information in it is true or not. But if someone was actually studying Marie Antoinette, they should not use this book for refrence. I'm 14, and a book about what really happened to Marie Antoinette that I enjoyed was ""The Last Queen of France"". That is a great book for actual studying."
147946,1,"not ""all that""","no idea why someone should want to pay 196.84 for one of these. it doesn't contain the mythical ""lead to gold"" conversion process, does it?"
147950,1,"No Magic, No Drama. Will Smith just playing Will Smith.","Word-of-mouth is true about this one. This movie is a bummer. It's just Will Smith playing Will Smith, but he almost had the voice down. But he would lose the voice occasionally. The fight scenes are uninteresting. Will Smith looked as if he was scared of a stunt punch. Unlike the real Muhammand Ali in those days. Perhaps Laurence Fishburne should have been cast as Ali. No magic or drama to this film. I recommend the original film that Muhammand Ali made on his life story starring Muhammand Ali himself, THE GREATEST (1977). Muhammand Ali was also good in FREEDOM ROAD (1979-TVM)."
147989,1,Which picture today?,"Picture changed 5 times in the last 48hrs after filing complaint w/ Amazon. Received sub-par quality cable. Don't assume you will receive the cable pictured, I didn't. Obvious ""Bait & Switch"""
148033,1,You can do better,"Usually a film has to have the word ""Malibu"" in the title to be this dumb. It wouldn't suck except for how much money and talent was squandered producing something that is neither history or entertainment. Everybody involved has done something great, go watch that instead."
148040,1,"As a period piece 3 stars, entertainment zero","Although the production values are excellent (the set decorations, costumes, and period music) and the story historically accurate(immigrants clawing for a place in society, the 1863 Draft Riots, the north's own prejudice to non-whites), ""Gangs of New York"" is an utter failure at entertainment. Scorcese seems to think non-stop violence is the best way to hold an audience's attention span for 167 minutes. Packed with gore, torture, and scenes of battle, this film is only for those with a strong stomach. I went eagerly to this movie as an armchair historian and Civil War buff but had to force myself to watch it and came away utterly repulsed. I can't even recommend it for historical value. Two stars only."
148081,1,Difficult and confusing,"I had such a dreadful, struggling experience reading this book. I couldn't understand a word of it except what the back of the book said. When the author went off on his poetical tangent, I was just lost. I couldn't see the symbolism, although I knew it was there. Don't get me wrong, Mr. Makine is a very talented and gifted writer, but I think only those who read poetry and novels that you have to concentrate on would enjoy this one."
148086,1,Useless.,"This kind of ""experimentation"" was already over in the days of Woolf and Joyce. Not only was D.F. Wallace incredibly overrated and incredibly out of touch, but he's left us a legacy of second-rate regurgitated drivel like this as well. Thanks, guy.Whatever happened to telling real stories about real people?"
148093,1,Troy Built Trimmer,The product did not come when stated. Only after my requesting info did I recieve an update as to delivery date status. I finally recieved it a week later.
148157,1,disappointing,"Ditto what Michael Polich said. More Cherokee than Creek/Muskogee - so why not use a Cherokee town name and say it is Cherokee? Or use John Swanton's Creek Religion and Medicine or Bill Grantham's Creation myths and legends if it is Muskogee? Or just make up a place and say unknown SE American Indian tribe/group/town?I was just plain old disappointed with this effort by Dr. Hudson. He has done better (Southeastern Indians). This isn't much of a literary effort or ""historical fiction."""
148189,1,Very poor craftsmanship.,"This watch is pretty...but is very cheaply made. On the watch I received, the backing did not fit properly. The hinges on either side of the face were uneven, causing the bracelet to fit improperly on the wrist. I sent it back. It is definitely not worth the money."
148218,1,What the...,"Great speech, but what happened to this formatting? The font is horrible, and if you try to change it, it stays the same. There's something wrong with the pages themselves- they overlap, and you can't get past the second page by touching the screen. Please fix this, Amazon"
148233,1,"Atmospheric, haunting, BUT....","This offering is not without it's charms: the haunting, creepy prose typical of Jeff Long's other works. However, no serious physical threat to the protagonist ever materializes, and the subtext of the book (the ongoing tragedy of Vietnam soldiers MIA)would have been better served by a more straightforward introduction. As it stands, the author's ""message"" is not put forth until the last few pages when it has been overshadowed by another highly improbable confluence of events. And a character - I am not kidding - getting ""humped by a plant"". Actual quote from the book.It's an okay read, but not one of Jeff Long's better works."
148303,1,Worked for two months!,"I really liked this DVR and then it malfunctioned right after the return window closed.As far as sound quality - it is OK for unimportant voice recording. If you are going to use it for remote podcasting, you may want to spend some more money and go with the Zoom H2. The microphone recording is in mono which is lame.I mainly used it for recording ideas. I would then periodically transfer the files to my computer.After about a month I ran into the problem of No computer could recognize it. I have tried it with four different computers and none of them recognize it. This pretty much makes the unit worthless to me since i transfer my audio files weekly. I have checked the forums and there is no answer in sight for this problem.Now after spending all this money, i feel cheated."
148338,1,Alright!,This book was a drag. I wish i never ordered it. The meaning is good but it was not for me.
148455,1,An amateur,"The book was written by a rank amateur. If it were not for his name, no publisher would have touched it. Either stick to acting,Gene,which you do exceedingly well, or serve an apprenticeship, as other writers must do."
148534,1,"Go back to ""More to this Life""","Chapman keeps failing. Well, maybe not him alone. Could be the producers and record execs. Remember ""More to this Life?"" What a great CD. But, then along comes ""Dancing with the Dinosaur"" and other trivial dribbles. This new CD is so plain. Lackluster. Now, Chapman is in my estimation a gifted, talented and humble musician. But, whenever you get the record company and their machines rolling, the artists creativity goes by the wayside.I sure wish that at times we could go back. Put out another album like ""More to this Life"" and others like it.But, truly there is nothing new under the sun.Now, this is tongue-in-cheek, so please take it this way.Samson lost his strength when his hair was cut. Hmmm....Steven! How about growing those locks back!Steven is an incredibly strong talent to be put upon the altar of the machine called the industry."
148578,1,This one was a loser for me.,"I purchased one of these Deltran 6-volt tenders in 2009 for use on my Honda Trail 90. It worked fine that first winter. When I went to hook it up this past fall, it didn't work. To avoid the time cost and hassle, I didn't seek a warranty replacement, I just purchased another one of the same brand and model. When I went to hook it up, bad news. This one did not work right out of the package. I returned it to Amazon and received a prompt refund. I have four of the Deltran 12-volt battery tenders and they are all still working fine after four years. Don't know what the problem is with the 6-volt model but I will not purchase another one."
148653,1,"Nice wallet, really bulky","Very nicely made leather case, however it is very bulky and does protrude from the belt. I went back to using the low profile belt clip supplied by my HP iPAQ."
148715,1,Shrub-wow! What a clever title!,"Did Molly come up with this bright pun herself? Cause usually Molly just takes things other peolpe wrote and calls them her own. Or did she have her nasty, unhappy girlfriend Ann Richards, help her? You know--Ann--the mean democrat who got her fanny waxed by George Bush in the Texas gubernatorial election? Poor Molly is just beside herself with hatred. It must stink to be a mean-spirited, hypocritical plagiarist whose girlfriend got dumped by a decent man of substance and then watch him get elected president, too.I know--she can call him stupid! That will make her feel better! But if Molly/Ann got beat by a stupid man, what does that make them? Poor girls, you just keep raging against the machine. W will just keep on keeping on. Maybe while everyone is distracted by the stench and filth the felon-pardoning Clintons are in now, Molly can write another book about how bad Republicans are."
148857,1,Slow and not user-friendly,"I chose garmin over tom tom due to good reviews before i bought this product. Though, I'm disappointed. I have it set to ""fastest route"" and it gave me local streets than highway (which is faster, because I've tested). It's just not a very ""smart"" gps if you have high expectations, then you'll be real disappointed with this purchase. I'm thinking about returning it to amazon."
148910,1,Arrived weeks late.,"This was scheduled to arrive no later than August 16th. Despite repeated attempts to contact Amazon, it arrived September 2nd, and I had to go to the post office to get it. It was for my daughter's birthday, and arrived weeks after her birthday. It is a great book, but Amazon's service was dreadful."
149044,1,Didn't work...Seller didn't respond to emails.,"THe item didn't work and several attempts to the manufacturer, seller, and Amazon (including an email to Jeff Bezos) went without any help. Needless to say I'm no longer an Amazon Customer nor will I ever be again."
149153,1,Ugh... tree hugging book,"Man, I can't stand this book any longer. The tree-hugging nature of the book is driving me crazy.Do yourself us all a favor, Quinn - unwrap your arms from the tree and get your head out of your rear-end.We're at war with the world? Please."
149155,1,An insult to intelligence!,"This book is not all bad. There are brief passages that are even remotely original. However, the majority of this novel is uncomfortably shallow and lacking any real Truth or Beauty. And contrary to some other reviews, I never felt challenged by Quinn to reexamine my thoughts or actions. For something better, try Tom Robbins, Wim Coleman, Mark Leyner, or Derrick Jensen (listed with first being best).DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK until you have read a passage from it or at least skimmed the first few dialogue shifts.And remember, no matter how eloquent somebody may sound -- this all really just comes down to personal opinion."
149190,1,no normal girl,"no point in reading this stipid, self-indulgent piece of garbage.....if you want to read a good book read normal girl....this girl is horrible, and the things she's done.... but her book is worst then she is..."
149235,1,waste of money!,I bought it after reading all the reviews. What a let down. It should be classified under books for children. Check it out at the library before spending your money on it.
149238,1,Disappointed,The first thing you see is a screen informing you this is an unauthorised biography and does not feature any U2 music or songs. It seems no one remotely close to the band has been included in this production. I got bored after 15 mins and switched it off. I may try and watch it again with lowered expectations and give it a more balanced review.
149309,1,Overproduced!,"I totally disagree with the Amazon.com editor with regard to his review. As an editor, he should know better!Charmbracelet is mediocre, at best! I honestly expected a more stripped down version of Mariah. What she has done on Charmbracelet is similar to what she did on ""Rainbow"", but with MORE drama.Mariah's voice is so GREAT I don't think she even realizes it. Her voice and her lyrics with very little, if any, instrumental accompaniment is all Mariah really needs! Her vocal power cannot and should not be confined to the COMMERCIAL PRODUCTION displayed on ""Charmbracelet"".Definately NOT vintage Mariah!"
149333,1,Look closely at author's sources...,I read this book for a historiography class in college - the prof's entire intention was to show us budding historians what not to do. Bellesiles has either falsified some of his sources or had access to sources that do not appear to exist and which he himself cannot remember. This resulted in the loss of his position at Emory Univ. and the withdrawl of his Bancroft Prize from Columbia University...just thought people should know.
149344,1,Debunked and disgraced,Bellesiles work has been thoroughly debunked and he has been forced to resign in disgrace. Don't buy this book.
149362,1,"a month later, still have not received the magazine","I ordered this magazine with the auto-renewal on March 5, 2011, and here it is a month later, still nothing in the mail. Will wait to get my credit card statement and hope that I was not charged."
149487,1,Huh?,"The book is quite unusual. At first I didn't think it real. It is designed for people who do not read or know Chomsky. Just plain infantile slander, criminal really. The authors misrepresent the most basic aspects of his career. And what is an ""anti-reader?"" It is silly as the book is lunacy."
149611,1,"Box tampered, fake product",This product was sold & shipped by Amazon. Bottle box was tampered including barcode. EDT has no smell at all. I have taken few picutres of the box before ditching the entire bottle. Not even worth as a car air freshner. I will upload some of the images.
149651,1,DID NOT COME!!!!,"Ordered this toy for my daughter for Christmas, ordered it four weeks prior to Christmas....and it never came!!!!"
149666,1,beware,I have bought this conditioner for years--I just received this product and whatever conditioner is inside is definitely not the right stuff. I returned it and will only buy at the salon from now on.
149691,1,Still waiting...,"Hello,I'm still waiting for the item. It seems that the bill was not shipped with the DVD box to my deliver in Florida and now everything is quite delayed.I hope to review later and add 5 stars as i usually do."
149778,1,The Last Mermaid,"It's really a collection of 3 stories that are all sort of related, but in essence it's boring and not very well developed."

149901,1,Lemon- Steer Clear Money better spent elswhere,"This router would be no stars if possible. I just spent two hours trying every trick mentioned on DSLREPORTS.COM to get this working with NO success. Flashing to previous and newer firmware had no effect. I spoke with a CLEC tech on the other end of the connection who reported fragmented packet errors. Swapping out the router resolved the issue. We were using SBC DSL Speedstream 5100 connection hardware known good, I didn't have another brand on hand to check harware compatability. I'd highly recommend another router...don't venture down this path.Regards,Jeff"
149958,1,Good cheap watch.....but,"I have owned Casio watches for years. They are low-priced and accurate, but the last two have broken. The supports that hold the band break off so you are left with a pocket watch. If they could make the plastic a little stronger I would be well satisfied with the product."
149990,1,Just Horrid,Please dont waste your money! this movie was awful. its slow moving and all of a sudden just ends. with no climax and barely a ending. worst movie ever.
149993,1,BORING,"the movie is short, boring and confusing. Robert Pattinson did well but the story mediocre to say the least and the movie was DULL and BORING"
150327,1,So very boring,"Ambrose seems to have taken up right where he left off in ""Nothing like it in the World"" slow and boring, considering the topic that's no small trick either. But if you have an interest in the living arrangements made by Mrs. McGovern through the war by all means pick this book up that and numerous other mundane tidbits are covered in great detail here."
150357,1,Not very good,Worked ok while primed. But didn't seem to stay primed well. burnt it up after one time while trying to winterized camper.
150362,1,Charlottesville housing costs,"Charlottesville rated the best place to live in America. We made a special trip there to check it out. Housing is ridiculously overpriced. It's a nice area, but expect to cut your house size and standard in half if you want to live here. I am surprised the authors didn't factor that in more when they rated it #1."
150426,1,Save your money,You get what you pay for. I thought this was a neat tank for the price. However the material is cheap and looks scuffed when you get it.
150493,1,Is being able to hear important to you?,"This product frequently has static when you're on the phone. In addition, the connection between the ear piece and my phone sometimes just disappears for no apparent reason (always while I'm driving of course). As a result, I may answer the call and only then find out that I can't use the ear piece -- very inconvenient and illegal in some states. Redoing the Bluetooth setup is no fun either while I'm driving -- and that sometimes takes several efforts."
150536,1,Terrible,"What a waste of time. They must have offered Tom And Nicole a lot of money to start in this garbage. I continued watching the movie hoping in would get better. boy, was I wrong. Althought i will admit it has a couple of very sensous scenes, but still not worth wasting your time and money."
150566,1,Double Ugh.,"Call Joplin? You get the name of every person on the System except customer service. Why customer service? First GOG fell victim to one of the notorious Florida hurricanes: a big tree -- very big -- crushed it like a beer can. Second one -- the one with the seventy-five year warranty? Well hell, pilgrim, only 72 to go and it's self-destructing before my very eyes. Every cooking part including the ""Cast Brass"" burner is corroding such that the venturis no longer make contact with the burner, (an inch of tube has gone by way of rust; flames shot out and singed me eyebrows). Ah, but there is hope. The cabinet, top, and rollers are still good -- now if only I can buy a burner, venturis, an igniter, and drip pans, why hell, it'll be perfect.And the retailer? who sold it to me: told me to contact the manufacturer online. What the hell did we do before internet. We got to talk to someone but then what fun would that be. I think I'll go out for a hamburger."
150762,1,Not worth the price,"I don't own it and won't because the price does not make sense these days for a 1.3 megapixel when you can get a better brand 2 megapixel camera from Olympus, Fuji, and others for about the same price."
150779,1,Waste of time,"I'm a sailor & this is one of the worst books I have ever read. Even the cheapest ""how to start sailing"" books have more enthusiasm about sailing, unless the copy I have read was badly translated. I felt like the author needs to write a book for living and asks himself; what past experience do I have that I can use for this book? Its far-fetched analogy made me wonder the authenticity of the childhood memories. On the other hand if I needed a book for managment or life style etc. there are much better books which does not necessarly have to be about sailing. In short, I will not waste space in my limited library space by keeping this book."
150810,1,Gordon McLendon,This book is wholly in error on basic facts. It was written after only a few interviews with people who did not know the subject well and who were not present at the events recounted. A total waste of money...even for a used book.
150812,1,Unflattering,These are cheep shorts so I am keeping them to workout at home in when my husband is gone!. I would not be caught dead in public in these shorts - the pockets wad-up an create the illusion of thunder thighs. Yuck.
150820,1,Terrible!,"This book of plays is terrible. All of the plays are very poorly written. Uninteresting to both children and adults. The plays are based on Pioneers, but they are so badly written that no one will want to perform or watch them. I got a real sense that the authors threw together a few quick plays to make a buck. If you're looking for good plays, I recommend Bad Wolf Press. Their plays are much, much better."
150910,1,Broken Low Setting,The LOW setting is actually HIGH. Burns food severely within 2 hours. Went to manufacturer for new one. Would have ruined Thanksgiving if I hadn't tested it ahead of time. Tested it twice on 2 favorite recipes. Same results.
150926,1,Waste of time,"The author continually repeats obvious points, offering few interesting or useful points. Don't waste your time."
150970,1,Does NOT fit DA3000R,"The product description is inaccurate. This key does NOT fit the DA3000R, and may not fit others listed."
151033,1,Is there a rating that is less than one star?,"This conspiritological, (Howzat for a word?) paranoid, bigoted spew is being mailed to active Democrats in the Tampa Bay and Orlando areas in Florida. Another of Hughes publications is Truth Triumphant. Again, does Amazon have a rating lower than one star?"
151043,1,Nothing Special,This has such great reviews so I thought I'd give it a try. I didn't find it to do anything different than my normal conditioners? After trying I do think the price is a little high. It might just be the Garnier line of products I haven't found them to be that great... At least I have some extra conditioner in the house!
151155,1,Profanity,Too much profanity and ugly statements...Too much unnecessary action..Story line was good but took away from story with too much vilience...
151159,1,Worst movie I've seen in 20 years,"Complete trash, don't waste time, money or band width. Crap, crap. How they ever got reasonably good actors to play in this is crazy"
151168,1,"Flat, not funny","I like both leads, the bear animation is well done, but Ted just isn't funny, I can remember two laughs in the whole film."
151185,1,highly disappointed,"Thought it was going to be much funnier than it was. Funny parts, just an ok movie. Wouldn't watch again"
151190,1,Stupid,"This movie was just plain ignorant. Unless you like a talking teddy bear smoking pot, it is awful. We were so disappointed that we didn't make it past 45 minutes."
151197,1,Sucked bad!!,"This movie was nothin but stupid from begining to the end. If you watched the trailers, you seen the movie. Just hated this movie!"
151255,1,Don't waste your money:,"I thought it was a dumb, vulgar and a waste of money and time.I am a Mark Wahlberg fan, but was very disappointed that he would stoop to doing such a dumb movie."
151276,1,Not a beach story,I have read several of Pat Conroy's books and this one is well crafted but I don't like to read anything about the Germans killing and torturing of the Jews. I finished it but would not recommend it.
151309,1,"Ok, but not great.","This book wasn't anything like the other bardic novels in this series. It had little or nothing to do with music or magic. I would have liked this story better if the ""bad guy"" hadn't been so pathetic. It seems as though Misty was getting desperate for an evil charactor in this book and just grabbed someone out of a hat. I won't spoil it for those of you who haven't read the book, but the person who is behind the murders just didn't seem to fit the part. It is good, however, that we are able to understand and get to know Ardis better, but over all I felt disconnected from the under-developed charactors. A very light book; good if you have nothing else to read."
151310,1,Not what I thought I was geting,"Please know that this cuddle pal is very small. Also I received a duck, not a mouse, which is disappointing because I chose this product because it was a mouse. Like the other reviewer I wonder how much or how old the catnip is... Jackson is really uninterested. Total bummer.I gave it 2 stars instead of 1 because it is pretty damn cute if you are interested in a duck.."
151381,1,Radio stars on film,"This film reveals a sober truth about the major radio programs of the 1930s and 1940s: they weren't very funny. You can learn that by listening to tapes of the old shows, or you can watch this movie, which revolves around Fred Allen and features Jack Benny. Sadly, there isn't a laugh in the film. There is much absurdity and many attempts to be humorous, but nothing comes off. It's like an Olson and Johnson film. It's In The Bag is an embarrassment for Fred Allen, Don Ameche, Jerry Colonna, and William Bendix fans. Jack Benny admirers have long learned to expect this sort of thing from his movies. The Robert Benchley bit may be the worst he ever filmed--and that's saying something! Binnie Barnes is competent and still beautiful at 40, but her lines don't give her much to work with. In short, this is a dud, best forgotten."
151391,1,"Wow, this is as bad as it gets",This is a perfect example of a movie clip being the only funny part of an entire movie. This was a jumbled mess of nonsense filled with endless streams of unneeded profanity. I highly do NOT recommend this film.
151398,1,trailer makes it look good,Not very funny at all. I thought with all of the big comic names in the movie it would be...
151399,1,WASTE OF $$$!!!,"I didn't even get to watch the end of this movie. i watched the previews for this.... it looked funny. During the first few minutes I asked, ""Is this the UNCUT VERSION?"" A few minutes later, ""Are you SURE this isn't the UNCUT version?"" Then the ORGY scene came on!!! I scream, ""ENOUGH! TURN IT OFF!!! TURN IT OFF!!! I'M DONE!""DON'T be fooled by the previews!!! As I said, I did not watch this movie to the END! No matter how much you think that Stiller+Vaughn = FUNNY... PLEASE RECONSIDER!!! (Independently)Their previous movies were funny, so I gave this one a chance (way longer than I SHOULD have).If I was only going to watch a stupid, mindless, funny movie with usually FUNNY actors, ALONE w/ ONLY ADULTS in the room... I MAY have watched the WHOLE movie. BUT, since I was watching w/ my teens, I have to say the language/vulgarity/absurdity was ABSOLUTELTY DISGUSTING!!!I like Stiller and Vaughn. Usually, I enjoy their style/humor. This time NOT SO MUCH!!! (ESPECIALLY, in mixed company!)"
151411,1,Predictable,let me just say briefly that this would be a good film for those who haven't yet seen a large number of films . But I have seen lots of films and I read this from the start.This was a predictable film and rather slow but not an entirely bad film.
151463,1,AMAZON INSTANT VIDEO DISAPPOINTS,I ordered this movie through Amazon instant video and the 'playing' of this movie was TERRIBLE. The movie stopped and restarted 5 times.....the movie should have taken 1.5 hours to play .....with all the stops and starts it took over 3 hours. This doesn't happen with other amazon prime movies/tv shows or on netflix.
151517,1,A comment,I have read a few reviews that others have made and one thing I agree on is that the book is very receptive. Like a pastor preaching and saying the same thing over and over again.Another thing I wanted to mention is that the author uses his family a lot as examples of what they did and how they did things. Maybe it's just me but it seems to come across as arrogant. It's a turn off for me. Kind of like a pastor preaching and all his illustrations have to do with his family. I love to see authors/preachers highlight what they see others doing well and not using mostly themselves as examples.
151518,1,There is no heart in this book,"There is no heart in the book ""Shepherding a child's heart"".This book views children who misbehave, disobey their parents or forget to do something as sinners and encourages parents to spank their children in order to exercise their parental authority. The book describes in details how to apply this unjust and degrading practice. The book confuses discipline with spanking. Discipline comes from the Latin word disciple which means to teach or to lead out.Spanking doesn't bring about a better human being it only hurts a childs body, heart and soul."
151529,1,Not effective as a humidifier,"I bought two of these humidifiers for my daughters' rooms, which are fairly small. I liked the size of this model as well as the fact that it didn't have a filter that would need replacing. I returned both of them soon after receiving them. They blew a mist of water about six inches straight up, which proceeded to fall back down, drenching the humidifier as well as whatever surface I put it on. It was not effective at increasing the humidity in the room at all. Plus, on the lowest setting it only lasted for about 6-7 hours. I wouldn't recommend this humidifier to anybody."
151532,1,Hugely disappointing,"Don't bother. I don't know what the producers were thinking about, but this will put you to sleep. If you think you're going to get a ""sensational"" encapsulized look at '76, forget it. It wanders, wastes time, misses important moments. A bad, bad, bad effort. I rated this at one star only because you don't get the option here to give anything a zero."
151536,1,Horrible,"The awful remixes that make up the majority of this disc are disgusting. I like house music, and this is not good house music. It sounds like a mambo rednex!Do not buy this!"
151640,1,Great Album - Missed Anniversary Chance,"This is a fan rip-off!The original album is untouchable. But this is not about that. It is about these lousy remixes and missed opportunities to fill this anniversary set with new unreleased stuff.Remixes""The Girl Is Mine"" - best remix by Will.I.Am - 7/10""P.Y.T."" - not so good remix by Will.I.Am - 3/10""Billie Jean"" - not able to listen to that - 0/10""Beat It"" - Fergie's destroys the original - 0/10""WBSS"" - like Fergie he destroys the original - 0/10Unacceptable for a true music fan!"
151804,1,stopped working within 1 month,"This is a really cheap mouse. While using it, the cursor would freeze up like every five minutes. Within one month, the mouse stopped functioning all together. So there went my money.Also, this ""optical"" mouse REQUIRES the use of their special mousepad to track correctly. Optical mice are supposed to work on all non-reflective surfaces."
151805,1,already falling apart,"it is slowly falling apart and unraveling, just remember that with somethings you get what you pay for and that is the case with this"
151818,1,sizzled then fizzled,"A few years back, I read Morrison's ""Sula"" and gave it 5 stars, I loved the intimate nature of her poetic writing in that particular book. I've tried reading other books by her, but gave up out of confusion or boredom. ""Love"" the audiobook read by the author was very confusing to this reader, but at the same time very interesting. I just let her read on in her laid back intimate style in what seemed to be random thoughts and at other times provacative dialogue between characters. Slowly I started to grasp who all these characters were to each other and was really enjoying the book. However the last few parts were even more confusing and I'm not really sure what happened in the end, I was just glad it was over.Maybe just not my style of reading entertainment. A lot of sex, sleaze and sleazy characters. Her use of imagery is great. A lot of the characters dialogue is truly riveting. The storyline just fizzled nowhere for me."
151881,1,dissapointed,"""Product DescriptionClosed-ear headphones with dynamic mic""These DO NOT have a dynamic mic element. They have an ELECTRET mic element..at least the pair I received sure does as it's clearly stated right on the front of the package in big letters ""CM500 Headset With Electret Microphone""that's why they come with the little battery box as an electret element needs power to the element where a dynamic element doesn't. I should have returned these as soon as I saw that as for my needs I prefer a dynamic microphone"
151926,1,"Nice, but still need to floss","I think this is effective as a supplement to flossing, but not as replacement. I think this may depeend on your teeth. I easily get things stuck in my teeth. I'm sure this is cleening under the gums better, but it can't dislodge everything. If you're looking for a replacement for flossing, probably not the way to go, but again, it may depend on your teeth."
152006,1,savages,"movie was very boring,action was good, but not enough, will trade it in soon not worth keeping,endings were dumb. too many sex acts."
152009,1,Sex,2 men sharing a women I found weird but perhaps that might be what the present average viewer enjoys. The whole move stunk.
152025,1,"they let me down, they'll probably let u down 2","i am/was a huge outkast fan. i have all of their cds (except stankonia), and not one of them was mainstream garbage. but now, speakerboxxx/the love below (should've gotten their best songs and made 1 cd) is now mainstream crap played on mtv every day. whatever happened to the great rhymes of ATLiens or aquemini or southernplayalisticadillacmusick? the love below is andre 3000 singing about sex (pure garbage). what fun! but on speakerboxx, big boi does a pretty good job, which is why this cd/s got 2 stars (2 much collabos).if youre an old outkast fan, dont even think of buying this. but if your an 8th grade girl who listens to mainstream crap like my band, yeah, and tipsy, this cd is perfect for you and will fulfill if not exceed your expectations for a modern (...) rap cd"
152027,1,Spearboxx is way below expectations,When you think of outcast this music they are making seems foreign what the hell were they thinking man this music is terrible I wouldnt listen to the cd if it was given to me let alone buy it. After this cd outcast is definitly going to be forced into early retirement
152046,1,what happened!!!,mature=boring.if you are a replacements fan or solo westerberg fan rum as fast as you can away from this tragedy.easily the worst work hes EVER produced.a straight a student brings home an f!(if i could have given this 0 stars i would have!)
152177,1,Disappointing,"From the cover and the blurb on the back, this is supposed to be a historical novel. Technically, this is true: it's a story of Gildged-Age era musicians serving on an Atlantic steamship. The ship in question just happens to be the RMS Titanic. It could have just as easily been the Empress of Ireland, or a totally fictional liner, and there would've been little to no change in the story. The musicians are the author's own creations, used in place of the actual men who served on the ship. It struck me as in poor taste, like writing a historical novel about the first men on the moon and replacing Buzz Aldrin and crew with ""more interesting"" characters.For a *much* better novel set on the Titanic, using the historical figures, try Max Collins' The Titanic Murders."
152215,1,Very disappointed,"Died after around 6 months' gentle, non-abusive use.Apparently from reading other consumers' reviews also, I'm far from alone.VERY much too much money for such a lifespan.I'm not buying another one.Edited: Oh, I forgot to say that for while it worked, it was EXTREMELY too loud, right out of the box. Minimum-Volume-adjusting the phone didn't help. I had to remove the eargel and insert a compacted, wadded up chunk of soft foam and pack it down dense & tight over the earpiece speaker to subdue it to an acceptable range, before replacing the eargel over it.Should NOT have to do this."
152289,1,Long horn review,"Fun story. Mostly a collection of different ideas for zombies jammed together and set in the old west. No development of the characters, so don't expect to get to caught up in the story. It's a whimisical read."
152299,1,Rabbit ears are better,I get better reception with my rabbit ears than I did with this power antenna. Avoid.
152385,1,Waste of money.,It lasted a whole 10 minutes till my dog had it in pieces. Might work better as a cat toy.
152406,1,Boring Lame Adventure game,"We have a group of friends who get together every other weekend to play various adventure games while sitting in a group around a computer and taking turns at the mouse while using group strategy to complete the game.We have played tons of them... many from DreamCatcher.DARK FALL rates among the most boring.In fact we uninstalled it and threw it in the trash.The first and most annoying feature was the interface.In today's world of PC gaming, having static still shots of your environment (like early days of MYST) is lame.Realistic 3D environments where you can spin and get your bearings is the only acceptable interface for these types of games anymore...... a series of still scenes with no movement ability inside your screen is quickly disinteresting and detracts from the game.After about an hour, this game hit the trash can.There are much more engaging adventure games out there to have fun with"
152432,1,poorly built breaks easy,"It's got great capacity, the USB 3.0 version has great speed, but don't touch it. It's extremely easy to bend off the USB plug, ruining the product. Dropping your laptop will do it. Get one that's full metal, patriot makes some good ones."
152462,1,Do not buy!,Is not compatible with xbox 360. The game itself is really fun but the it will not run on xbox 360.
152525,1,what happened??,"What happened??? George's first two books were great, non-stop laughter...then there's this! I couldn't read on after 20 pages! I didn't find it offensive, trust me, i just didn't find it funny at all! Most of it just doesn't make any sense. I think the funniest part of the book is the title and the book cover, which are quite funny. SO how do I explain all of the good reviews here? Well, there's a little thing called the placebo effect when it comes to people who are fans of music, literature or any other type of art form. If one already likes a particular artist/musician/author from the their previous work which is genuinely good, then they expect/fell the need to like all future works by the artist. It would be sort of like a betrayal any other way. But please people, don't fall victim to the placebo effect with this book, it really is genuinely horrible. Sorry George, better luck nex time."
152599,1,what is it??,what does this software do? all i see is how much it cost and when it ships. if i am buying software just to see how much software i can buy then this is all i need to know. but if i want useful software then i need to know what it does before i get it!!!
152713,1,Napoleon Dynamite - 002-4607518-3456042,"This indie favorite follows Napoleon Dynamite (Jon Heder), a quirky, ninja-loving teenager growing up in the far reaches of Idaho. Napoleon's life gets complicated when his shady Uncle Rico (John Gries) shows up, a shy girl (Tina Majorino) starts showing him some attention and his best friend Pedro (Efren Ramirez) decides to run for school president. Nominated for a Grand Jury Prize at Sundance in 2004."
152805,1,Not great for my problem,"I bought this to help with fibromyalgia and it hasn't helped. The guy at GNC said it's a very low potency and I could actually take 5 at one time. So, the next time I switched to a 50 billion probiotic b/c this just isn't good enough for the pain I'm in daily."
152825,1,Skip it!,"We thought it would be a great time saver. Turns out most of the products we were going to use in it (i.e. Medela bottles and pump accessories, feeding bottles and nipples, etc.) specifically say, ""Do not place in a microwave steamer"". Save your money and use a 3 or 4qt pan you already have and boil the items for 5 to 20 minutes."
152866,1,"DO NOT BUY THIS, BUY THE IQ VERSION",The device is pretty good however it is very hard to time the warming and very easy to overheat the bottles.a few weeks after my son was born we went to my in-laws where we duplicated most of the necessities and I bought the IQ version of this warmer. It is so much better. Has so many setting! A few friends that copied our registry i had switch to the iq version. Spend the extra money!
152877,1,Horsepills galore.,"These pills did not work for me personally, they're huge and difficult to swallow and had a unpleasant odor/taste. Not for me."
152879,1,health hazard,"The product contents may be fine, but the pill size (22mm x 10mm x 8mm) is outrageous. I cut my first pill in half and it got stuck in my throat. After 15 minutes of not being able to either swallow or cough it up, I called 911. The paramedics wanted to take me, to the emergency room but after about another 15 minutes the pill started to dissolve enough to get into my esophagus (saving a $1000 ambulance ride). I had severe indigestion for the next 48 hours, and my throat is still swollen four days later. This product should not be on the market."
152899,1,Would Pass On This One,"We purchased this product the same day that we purchased the wipes warmer. When we got home we tried to attach the depot to our Storkcraft Aspen Changing Table, however, it wouldn't fit. Not that I minded, because as soon as it was out of the box, I realized that it was a complete waste of money. It is just some hard plastic. This diaper holder didn't hold our daughter's newborn size diapers and the side compartments wouldn't even hold more than one item. Needless to say, it went back the very next day. If I were you, I would pass on this item and get a diaper stacker to match your nursery and get either a changing table with a drawer, or hang an organizer onto the wall for other necessities."
152909,1,JustAnther peace of media SPAM to discredit the Internet ...,"In this book Clifford Stoll makes an important point or two about the Internet but as usual, Stoll sounds more like an unhappy child who would prefer not to share any of his toy's with the World. Clifford Stoll has found gainful employment as a main stream media goon who's sole purpose is to Bash the Internet while managing to appear credible, Clifford Stoll is truly an academic elitist who is unhappy with the Internet being open to the public wear it can act as an alternative press to the more conservative corporate main stream media outlets like MS-NBC, clearly the establishment is Internet phobic and Clifford Stoll is a spokes Man on the payroll of a media & softwear giant.. I think it's no ascedant that the NY Times, Washinton post & Chicago Tribuneno all wasted no time manufactur good revues to this 2ed rate book as a way to promote this peace of pro-establishment propaganda.................:-"
152918,1,Disappointing compared with Sartre For Beginners,"Nietzcsche for Beginners, compared with Sartre for Beginners is highly disjointed, contains distracting grammatical errors, and does not give the beginning reader a solid sense of Nietzche's ideas. Terms are poorly explained, pictures are often apparently irrelevant or tangential to accompanying text, and ideas do not appear to logically build upon each other. I am a graduate doctoral student in clinical psychology and I found this book marginally useful and ill suited for true beginners."
152937,1,I would never recommend this book to anyone,"I bought this book at a Salvation army store for 50 cents under the pretense that it was a quality read that had no home. Well, I've learned that you truly get what you pay for!I, literally, had to put the book down at least 10 times before I could summon up the willpower to complete the reading. Not only were the characters 1-dimensional and underdeveloped, but they had no redeeming qualities whatsoever. I found it hard to empathize with such self-righteous, self-indulgent characters. What eventually brought me back to the novel every time were the intense love triangles and sordid entanglement between the main characters. Even then, I was not pulling for any of the characters to succeed, really. I would even go so far as to say that I felt much contempt for many of the characters, including Caroline herself.If you do decide to read this book, prepare to feel nauseated and disappointed."
152938,1,"A Waste of Time, Even If You're Killing Time on the Beach","This supposedly ""acclaimed"" author has written a book that is not just bad, but bafflingly bad. Not only is this not quality literature, it is not even quality trash. The book includes all the ingredients of a sexy page turner (like a mother who is pursued by the same man who seduces two of her daughters) but it is presented in such a bland way without the minimal character development that might make it believable, that it comes off about as exciting as watching paint dry. Other scenes of hip young women snorting coke are described by an out-of-touch author who is trying to sound current but clearly doesn't know what she is talking about. Seems she did her research from the pages of another trashy novel (no doubt a better one). Don't be fooled by the jacket description. This book is in no way ""hauntingly sensitive."""
153009,1,Think Again,"I am very disappointed in the diaper genie. It was fine in the begging, I found it was not that hard to set up or even refill, for about three months. The ring that twist the bag started to get bent on the end, which made it harder and harder to use because it got so deformed that know it dose not fit. The bags are not that expensive but with the Diaper Champ you can use normal bags that you already have in your house. This was a shower gift to me, so I really didn't spend money to buy it.I wish I would have read more reviews on the Diaper Genie (and other products for that matter) before I put it on my registry because I would have ask for something else. I hope this will help someone else before making the same mistake."
153020,1,Wii HD Cable,"This cable didn't really add that much to the picture quality or resolution on a 56"" HD Television. Don't waste your money. The game system can only display in 480P with this cable."
153091,1,junk dont buy,"you will get frost bite and destroy anything that you use this on, dont buy this crap, use your air compresser not this."
153118,1,Nice non-stick but does not last,"PROS:-Non-stick works really well; there is hardly any sauce left in the pot/pan after you simply pour it out.-The handles do not get hot.-Lids fit well and are very high-quality.CONS:-Scratches easily.-The bottom of the pots and pans are ribbed and hard to clean.-We used the pans on a gas stove, and the non-stick wore off in approximately a year (not due to scratches but probably due to the heat). We are looking for a new set of longer-lasting cookware."
153119,1,Worst non-stick I've ever bought,"I bought this based on saucepan design (see below) and the satisfied reviews. I'm shocked at the poor quality and terrible non-stick interiors. I've bought various brands of non-stick cookware for years, but this is hands-down the worst. Scrambled eggs and omelets were a disaster the very first time. Pan/pot weight is extremely light compared to other brands such as Revere, Cook's, T-Fal. The lids are the heaviest and sturdiest thing about them.I really dislike the current trend of making small diameter, narrow, taller pots for the 2-1/2 qt to 4 qt sizes. I like the height/width of these saucepans, but nothing else about them justifies a purchase."
153140,1,Very Misleading Ad,"Good films however the Ad is very misleading in as much as a Total Run Time of "" 700 minutes "" is advertised when in fact the actual total run time is less than 300 minutes..........."
153204,1,Chairman of the Bored,"Carrot Top brings the annoying to new heights in ""Chairman of the Board."" He stars as Edison, an inventor who loves to surf and finds out that his ideas are being stolen by the evil new CEO. There are numerous unfunny sight gags-including one that involves the evil CEO eating office supplies. Carrot Top,who looks like the carrot/root vegetable male version of cat lady Joycelyn Wildenstein, saves the day with his strange car and realization that his Glow Goo was being used against him.Raquel Welch makes a thankless cameo,one wonders if she was nostalgic about ""Myra Breckinridge"" in which she starred as Rex Reed's feminine alter ego. Courtney Thorne-Smith stars as Carrot Top's hapless girlfriend,and there's a disgusting love scene at the end that gives heterosexuality a bad name.""Chairman of the Board"" is engrossing in a bad way. It's so bad you can't tear your eyes away. Since it is full of tired jokes,""Chairman of the Bored"" is more fitting."
153290,1,Wasn't as good as the first one.,Wait to see it on TV. I bought it because i got it half off. but it wasn't that funny. watch robot chicken instead. Way better!!!
153379,1,more fiction than fact,"A book can be entertaining without being factual. While some might consider this an entertaining book to read, it is based only on newspaper accounts. No interviews were actually conducted for the writing of this book, although Mr. Horner might make it appear so. Mr. Horner admits in his book that he took his accounts from newspapers, he also admits the newspapers were against concealed carry. This should make the reader suspicious right there. Basically, I thought it was a lazy, sloppy work. There are too many inaccuracies in it, maybe if it were under fiction? A really good work on the subject would have an audience. Book was a disappointment."
153420,1,Most horrible movie ever,"Wow... I usually don't post reviews on bad movies (its just a casualty to watching a lot of movies) but this one is CRAP! Seriously, no wonder it went straight to DVD. Heed my advice and run away from this movie! Side note: Dear directors, can you reimburse my time I waste on your movie???"
153499,1,Really disappointing,"For something this fanciful to work, every element, from the characters to the plot to the setting, has to contribute to the suspension of disbelief. None of this took place. The characters were cardboard, the plot meandered, the background was hazy. I will still try to slog through it just because I always try to finish books, but this one's going to take me a while. Sorry, didn't work for me.A note on how I read, and how I review:When they begin to bore me, or I stop believing in the world the writer is attempting to create, I stop reading and move on to something else. There are so many books, and so little time, that it's simply not worth spending time on books that aren't getting the job done. If the book isn't holding your interest, why bother?"
153535,1,a bad movie,From the beginning where the belt buckle is obviously sawed almost in half the movie just goes down hill.
153621,1,Unmagical Weak Story,"This film was really boring. A kid sprouts from a couple's garden and has leaves on his legs. There is no magic or symbolism to these leaves or moral to the story. The movie pretty much goes on and on with the kid in soccer games, drawing portraits or playing musical instruments at a recital. There is really no climax or thrilling aspects to this film and thus it becomes a bore really fast. I think I might have been expecting too much from this film since Jennifer Garner is in it and it was under the Disney name. I should have passed on it nonetheless."
153669,1,A TOTAL WASTE OF HARD EARNED MONEY!,This CD isn't worth the plastic disc it's written on! Typical on ANY of her albums. She is and always will be a no-talent screaming BIMBO!
153671,1,She need to stop with this.,"People think Ashlee is so cool because she has a rock-edge. FYI. NO SHE DOESN'T. This isn't rock, it's staight out pop, and you know what it totally blows."
153684,1,she is the roseanne barr of pop,"i have to admire her teeny bopper fanbase with all of their ''best record ....EVAH!!!!!!!'' and ''she,likes,totally ROCKS!!!!!'' nonsense.thats what kids do.kids also are known for swallowing foreign objects,getting sent to detention,plastering posters of everyone they see on tv in their bedrooms,abbreviating ''the'',standing outside of the TRL building yelling their heads off,you know...really dumb stuff.now i think the kids have made ashley their mission.her and the kids deserve eachother,only kids can relate to such horrible sounding nonsense.''i am me''..........members of MENSA must be scratching their heads over such a brilliant title."
153758,1,Get what you paid for,"Bought this printer 1 year ago. After the first month the control chip died and returned it for a new printer. After 1 year the printer died again, again it was the control chip but unfortunately the printer was out of warranty. The chip cost $150, the printer cost me $200. I just bought a new black toner. I would rate this a 4 had it not been for the quality issues."
153790,1,Awful!!!,I bought the cassette adaptor for my car and its is worthless. Don't both buying it. I feel terribly sending in a bad review but I wouldn't want someone buying this. My cassette make a loud clicking noise louder than the music playing. It also stops working for time periods... I am not sure if mine is just a defected one because there are also good review for this product :((( ?! I don't know
153824,1,badly put together,The copy of this book I received from Amazon had no page numbers after page 15. None of the exercises were numbered and much of the text had words that were printed over each other. I could see the possibilities here but after going through and numbering the pages myself and trying to figure out which exercise was which left little time for actually learning anything about right hand technique. I was very disappointed in this book.
153855,1,Kept Slipping from the knee,"According to the size chart, I bought the right size, but it kept slipping down from my knee.I seems to me that the velco straps are too short and therefore, not enough surface is in contact to keep the brace in place."
153858,1,PRINTER DIDN'T WORK - LACKED APPROPRIATE DRIVERS,"BEWARE - Box stated that printer would work with Windows 98. We have a network system that contains two windows 98 SE computers. The CD-ROMS in the box were only for Vista, 2000 and XP. I called HP and it could not make good on the blurb on its box stating that it would work for Windows 98."
153913,1,Poor HD,"Let me start by saying that I love this movie - I am not rating the movie itself poorly. Trying to watch the Blu Ray 'Screwhead Edition' gives me a headache, though. Didn't anyone watch this oversharpened mess before they published it? It's as if they turned the contrast all of the way up, and called it good. Chainmail alternately disappears, and blinds as every link become a brilliant shining white - Same with BC's hair, sometimes it's dark, other times it looks white. Occasionally the picture gets so grainy that if you didn't know better, you'd think that it was a stylized flashback scene. I'm sorry I put out the extra money to buy this version - my regular old school dvd (and honestly, even my vhs version) look better than this. It's a trick, get an axe!"
153922,1,Phased Array Antennas (Wiley Series in Microwave and Optical Engineering) by R. C. Hansen (Purchased on 03/16/2010),"This book has numerous technical errors and inadequate references. The deficiencies apparently stemed from the author's attempt from the role of editor in his previous book on this subject published in the 1960s, which is comprehensive and of high quality, to a single-authored book without adequate research on each subject covered. However, this book does have the merit of bringing up new issues and progresses in phased arrays over the past decade, even though some controversies and inaccuracies were created in the process by the author."
154023,1,Didn't work at all.,Product didn't work at all. I have to go through Minn Kota for warranty service now. I don't think it's asking too much that a product will work when you buy it.
154043,1,"Sorry, I dont agree with all the hoopla","I thought this was going to take me back to the hey-day of the group, but it didnt. The only tracks that I loved were the ones I already owned in the beach boys best songs cds. I found this album an attempt to recapture what they had, and in my humble opinion, its a dismal bust. The new stuff was dreary, melodramatic, and overwrought. No rythm, no purpose, just cry in my beer stuff that left me wondering why in the world I ever bought this to begin with. but i do know why! I wanted that past. sadly, the past is gone."
154096,1,"no shirt, no shoes, no thanks","This book targets a specific audience, young and dull-witted. Take some common experiences, invoke a drawl or two to spice things up, serve up on some bathroom fixtures. The reader suffers through countless forgettable events ladled up with the author's special sauce...southern-style conceit. 98% corn pone. Save your money and rent a video, his stage humor works better."
154158,1,They are good but something isn't wholesome,"As I read the description I come away with that there are 4-16oz packages in the box for $39.95. If I read it right then 1 16 oz package costs $10.00. I do not know about anyone else but I do not ever remember buying a package of Keebler cookies for $10.00 I have paid $3.00 and 2/$5.00 but never $10.00. Someone is making one heckuva profit on a discontinued product. How is a consumer going to be reassuredKeebler Mini Cookies, Fudge Stripes, 2Oz Snack Pack, 8 Packs/Boxthat the cookies are eadable?"
154205,1,Only wish they had a negative star rating... that bad,"We were so upset at the awful language in this movie. The story line was so predictable and the vocabulary was that of a bunch of 16 year old boys that it was just shameful. We did not even finish the movie. I only wish they had a rating of negative stars. We would have rated it negative 5. So bad it is going in the trash, where it belongs."
154290,1,OBVIOUSLY CLIFF BURTON WAS METALLICA,Metallica was never the same without Cliff Burton. What happened?I remember my friend drove up in his car and had just bought this the day of its release.I was in dismay. I was like this is like ACDC. Oh no!It was like the moment when Motley Crue followed up Shout at the Devil with Theater of Pain only they didnt start dressing like girls.That very moment was the end of Metallica for me. They bought into their own hype and did what their label or producer told them to.
154409,1,buy with caution,"I bought this same model at Wal-Mart, the first one caught fire and burned up, the second one worked fine for a month or so but now only the left charging station will actually charge anything.I'd suggest normal AA rechargables, easier to find parts for."
154426,1,Bad Quality!,"YES - BAD QUALITY! Both of the batteries that came with this product shorted out within two weeks of purchase, and with minimum use. Avoid this bad quality product. Too bad, because otherwise the design was excellent."
154438,1,Very Disappointing,"While covering a wide range of topics, it does so in an extremely basic manner, and even then, with very brief, and relatively poor explanations. In fact, so basic is the coverage that it is unlikely to be of use to anyone who buys it - people who buy a book such as this are likely to already have a certain degree of knowledge on the topic."
154439,1,Shinedown= LETDOWN,"Right from the opening track, one can tell that this is gonna be a sophomore slump for this excellent band. Too bad since I was really anticipating a great CD from these guys. This CD is too lame for anyone who knows how potent these boys can be. No song stands out. Why any producer would say this is great stuff is simply a joke. I could listen to this CD 10 or even 50 more times and it would still be as lousy as my first spin. Buyer beware."
154476,1,Wanna break up with your partner?,"Get this book and go through it with him/her.Lots of focus about past relationship/sexual experiences. Somethings should be kept to yourself, they are part of your learning/growing experience, not to be shared in a cosmopolitan magazine ""are we in love"" test format."
154491,1,Buyers Beware !!!,"First the positive. John Brown's commentary on First Peter is a classic and should be a part of every Christian's library if they are serious about studying the bible. For the commentary in and of itself, I give a 5-star review.Why the negative? Because the ad as given is only for half of the commentary set!! Brown's commentary was originally published in three volumes. Sovereign Grace Publishers re-published this in a two volume set (volume one containing the original volume 1 and half of volume 2, and volume two containing the original volume's rest of volume 2 and volume 3). Therefore when purchasing this book, you are only getting half of the full original commentary set! That's a pretty hefty price for half a commentary."
154553,1,Poor quality and poor manufacturer support,"When I first got this monitor I was thrilled. It's sleek looking and the 2 inputs were nice, since I could use it for 2 machines. I started to notice there's a lot of light bleeding in on the edges... a lot more than I notice on my LG or my Dell Notebook screen. Then I was faced with a permanent green stripe down the left side. After much trouble, I finally got a replacement sent from Viewsonic.The replacement is almost as bad. I've got all sorts of image ""burning"" (where it looks like my last screen is embossed onto the background). I'm now going to have to go through the whole hassle of trying to get this replaced again, as it makes the picture quality terrible.so far, 2/2 have been terrible, and the manufacturer support hasn't been very good, they forgot to send my last replacement for a couple weeks (said it'd bee 3-5 business days).Don't buy this model, and carefully consider the entire manufacturers line..."
154590,1,Only works for a few months......,"We bought this unit for a Directv DVR. It took a lot of tweeking to get it to work in the first place. And now a few months later, still plugged in to the same spot we had it, it stopped working. If you plug the unit in side by side with the base unit it works. If you move it 8 feet, it doesn't work. It has actually been a pain. I feel it's been a huge waste of time and money."
154706,1,So this is it?,"I looked forward to reading this novel with all the glowing reviews but in retrospect I wish I had paid more attention to the 1 star reviews. They were 100% right.There is not a single aspect of this novel I can recommend. The writing is ordinary, nothing exceptional at all. The storytelling? It's like reading the newspaper, flat and uninteresting. The story itself? Ok, there are a few interesting scenes, some shocking ones, too, but most of the book goes nowhere, even when it is covering years and decades, which is a neat trick. It has no energy whatsoever.One of the very worst novels I have read in a long long time."
154863,1,this was bad,Judgment Day 2003 was not good. The strecher match and the ladder match were the only two good matches. Matches like HHH vs. Kevin Nash and roddy piper vs. mr. america (hogan) are a disgrace. This was just a bad ppv.
154880,1,This Is Just 8 Episodes!,Buffy the Vamire Slayer is an awesome show but this DVD set is only a best of episodes set with only 8 episodes. If you are into this great TV show just buy the complete seasons or the new DVD set that has every season all together!
154930,1,False Advertising,"Amazon sells this seat cover in conjunction with the foldable exersize bike. I have no idea why, this thing doesnt even cover HALF of that seat. Big rip off if you are planning to buy that package deal."
154948,1,Utter Disappointment,"I ordered this tray for a wedding gift. I was pleasantly surprised at the fast shipping from The Bowl Company. However, when I opened the item, I noticed an obvious flaw on the tray. Also, there appears to be swirl marks on the tray giving it a dull appearance, unlike all of the other Wilton pieces in my collection. It appears to be of ""B"" or ""C"" grade stock or possibly a previous return. I contacted the seller and they offered a replacement/refund after I ship the tray back. Since I will not be able to receive in time for the wedding, I'm out double shipping costs - for nothing. Save yourself time and effort and only buy Wilton from a real retailer."
154960,1,Disappointing,"I, too, was disappointed in this book. I expected more information about how healthcare was going to move toward a more proactive approach. I found the book focussed on the author's views about his own products. Was not relevant to Australia - despite the fact that it says it is a book for all countries. A waste of my money!"
154969,1,doesn't work on sap,I had high expectations for this product but it absolutely does not removesap.. how can it remove TAR? waste
154981,1,Not what the landscaper would have ordered,"If I was a professional landscaper, I would be screaming. I knew I was in trouble when the box said ""Made in China""! If this is their top of the line commercial unit, I would hate to see the cheaper versions. Poorly built. I wish I would have spent more for a better domestic unit. I don't see this lasting at all."
155002,1,earth-friendly housekeeping,"Great ideas, but way too much lecturing. Give me one chapter on the perils of chemicals, and then get on with the practical solutions."
155031,1,Don't waste your money,This band was terrible in the 80's and has only matured into old men still playing the crappy music from 20+ years ago. No talent wanna-be's from BFE.
155142,1,"A female reader from october 8, 1999 . Zürich, Switzerland.","I have experienced exactly the same result like the comments of following persons: - The reader of September 30,1998. - The reader ""Ron Lininger"" from Febuary 9,1999 and especially the reader from Sunnyvale,CA,July 21,1998."
155147,1,Primitive and Frustrating,"I bought this set because I thought it'd be fun to learn how to cook new dishes that can only be done with stainless steel. Instead, I found myself not eating or eating fast food rather than go anywhere near these pots and pans. Say what you will about non-stick cookware, but I'll take it and it's higher-tech construction than cookware that would be at home in 19th century Eastern Europe."
155148,1,was too good to be true,I purchased this set a couple of weeks ago. Although they do the job the pots are immediately stained and nearly impossible to clean. some of the pans turned a yellowish color. I have soaked them and tried brillo to clean them and nothing seems to work . My husband was really upset with these pots and the problem is once you use them they can not be returned .... Invest in a better set
155158,1,Not Season 3,This was a bad buy. It isn't season 3. It is a combination of season 2 and 3 and the episodes aren't in order.
155213,1,Do not buy these!,I have this set and the coating is coming off. I sent them back because it states they have a lifetime guarantee. They do not. Cuisinart makes you pay shipping both ways but sends back your original pans saying the coating is not a manufacturing defect. Horrible customer service!
155236,1,Unbelievable justification,"The play, certainly, did have a lot of emotion, was moving and well written, but in the end, just comes off as some one's attempt to justify their homosexuality. There is obviously some kind of moral struggle going on and this play is simply part of some one else's ill bred attempt to come out on top. The play comes off as being very insincere, far fetched and even blasphemous. I am shocked that it has been so well recieved and can only assume that we are trying to hard to be open minded that we have made ourselves blind instead to what can only be described as literary garbage. It is not original, not well thought out and written only to inflame the sentiments of god fearing people, and this sort of behavior is deplorable, especially for true literary enthusiasts. There are better way to get your point across and make homosexuality accepted besides slandering christ. I felt that this play was not worth the time it took to read and was very disappointed by it."
155288,1,Poorly researched,"This account of the so-called ""Barbary captives"" calls attention to a forgotten area of U.S. history, but the book is not well researched or well written. For a better analysis of Barbary captives' narratives (as well as several narratives) see Paul Baepler's anthology, White Slaves, African Masters. Robert Allison's The Crescent Obscured also has an informative chapter on Barbary captivity."
155292,1,Arrived scratched.,This is the type of thing that makes sense to buy locally. The box it's shipped in is not made for single piece shipping. These normally get shipped 10-12 on a skid to a store. They are packed for that purpose. The box arrived with 2 corners ripped and large parts of the board scratched. Amazon for their part gave a quick refund and covered return shipping. Good customer service. I ended up buying the backboard at a local retailer for 10.00 more than amazon. Good quality backboard. Just buy it locally.
155369,1,A Bit Disappointed,I've had this product for almost a year now--roughly 11 months since I first bought it. The side seam has begun to rip and the hole there is getting larger and larger by the day. The material used to make the sackpack is good and you'd think that it would last much longer than 11 months but mine has begun to rip. I am a bit disappointed considering that it's an Adidas sackpack.And it wasn't like I put this bag to anything hardcore either. It was used mainly as a bag to carry my work clothes to and from work. I've never filled the bag to the point it couldn't fit anymore in the 11 months I've used this bag.I don't recommend buying this bag unless you don't mind it lasting only a year at most.
155390,1,There is still no reason to believe in a god!!!,The five plot twists are a very weak argument for religious faith. The observation that the universe is appropriate for life because of the values of fundamental constants of nature is totally circular. Religious faith is dogma and dogma is a dirty word.
155473,1,Jonasuck,"This is the worst band you never heard, and have heard already. It seems that when a band releases an album it should contain a certain element of originality, which this severely lacks. The general sound of this album is like everything else you hear, with a little more of what you hear thrown in. Basically Jonasay is one of those bands that are a dime-a-dozen. They really don't have anything to offer that you can't find in a gewgaw. The guitar solos would be fairly good, however when one realizes that the solos are the same from song to song it seems that the guitar player really wrote a few solos and figured that was enough. The best part of this album is that you don't need to listen to it and therefore you can avoid it. Do this at all costs and save your money."
155481,1,pass on this phony book!,i recomend you read a book by John MCarthur or Robert Morey that will teach you correctly unlike this FALSEteacher test what he says according to the bible
155532,1,Never Got To Use It?,"I purchased this item on Amazon. Received it and plastic of the grill leg was damaged. Amazon was great and sent a replacement, no questions asked. The replacement was all so damaged. Once again, without question Amazon offered a replacement or refund. I took the refund. Weber needs to pack better or find a company that ships better?"
155537,1,Awful,As a prior Police Officer I often look for picture books on the subject. This book was worse than poorly done. Grainy quality photos with wrong/idiotic captions. The one thing that made me laugh out loud was the picture of an unmarked cruiser without any cop detailing at all (SO IN EFFECT IT WAS A PHOTO OF A CHEVY IN A PARKING LOT). How stupid!
155570,1,Hope for Them,"&#65533;Hope for Us&#65533;, which opens The Jealous Sound&#65533;s long-awaited debut (their only EP was released in 2000), is one of those classic introduction cuts that set up high expectations for the songs that follow. kill them with kindness offers 11 other tracks of varying modern rock quality &#65533; none as must hear as the opener. After the faux-Anglo phrasing of &#65533;Hope for Us&#65533;, Blair Shehan and John McGinnis trade vocals in the style of Dashboard Confessional, Blink 182, and Green Day. Nothing makes me push the reject button. In fact, &#65533;The Fold Out&#65533; and &#65533;Troublesome&#65533; light up with power pop energy. And &#65533;Recovery Room&#65533; is like good slow Sebadoh. But nothing compels me to listen obsessively, either. But I await a sophomore effort in the hopes that they find the magic that is evidently close to their grasp."
155615,1,Just for college digital photography class.,My teacher pushed all the students in the class to buy this book. I wasn't looking for a comic designing book. Even though designing comics for my story was always for my considered concept on how to put together my possible future book/comic.
155619,1,Profoundly disappointed,"From the reviews of others and following the author's induction into the World Golf Hall of Fame, I was quite amazed at the content. I recognize that my taste differs from many. I can't imagine the authentic greats of the game appreciating this representation of the ""real"" PGA world. There was so much in terms of base, no value content in ""Dead Solid Perfect"" that what was good about the book was buried. I muscled through over half of the book and then realized that it was, for me, a cup of something other than tea."
155648,1,Never recieve the item!!!,"I still haven't recieve my order! If an Amazon employee happens to read this I'd really appreciate some help with the problem, because so far I've only got the run-around!"
155694,1,Didn't care for any of the recipes.,"I'm not a terribly picky eater, but I couldn't find a single recipe worth trying. This book ended up in the garbage. blah"
155714,1,iPod batteries suck,i purchased an ipod and was very disapointed when i found out i had to buy a new cable before being able to use it. also the battery is lithium ion which means that it is practically worth less after 300 charges. that suckit wouldn't even play for one hour. you can learn how to change your ipod battery at posci.com but mine broke while i was doing it. also the metal on the iPod gets scratched very easily.after the ipod broke i got a new mp3 player. i got the iRiver ihp-120. it has a lithium polymer battery and it last for 3000 charges instead of the puny ipods 300. also the battery last for 16 hours twice as good as the ipod. the iriver hasn't gotten scrachted once. as an even better plus te iriver has a very high quality microphone which is awesome. lastly the irier cost less then the ipod DO NOT GET THE IPOD GET AN IRIVER I SWEAR YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT
155742,1,Same wheel problem,"Same problem as the previous reviewer. What a bummer to try to assemble it Christmas Eve night at 9:30 to find one of three wheels is defective. Sadly, sending it back."
155799,1,A definite lack of wit and humor,"I am currently about half way through this book. It's been a struggle for me to get this far. I wish that I could just put it down, but I can't. Now that I've read half of it, I feel obligated to read the rest.I feel that the author is trying way too hard to be funny. And she's being ""obviously"" funny. Her metephors are too much. Her explanations go on too long. She's too predictable. In many instances, I have been reading and thought to myself, ""I bet she's going to say..."" And you know what? I was right.Maybe I'm being hard on the author and the book because I have been used to the witty and sarcastic writing of authors like Augusten Burroughs and David Sedaris. I guess I shouldn't compare apples to oranges. Laurie Notaro is her own kind of writer and some may find her obvious observations amusing. As for me, I'm not likely to purchase one of her books again."
155893,1,Not worth the effort.,"I got this movie as an add-on movie, when I purchased Babette's Feast, which was excellent and well worth watching. This movie was convoluted, strange, unprincipled and unnecessarily sexual. If you're truly in the mood for a movie that celebrates food, get Babette's Feast."
155902,1,Maybe I Got a Bad Apple...,"I've been a PC user for years and got fed up with the constant problems, so I made the jump to the iMac. After 4 weeks, I awoke to what some call The White Screen of Death and called Apple support. After an hour of button-pushing to no avail, the tech told me I would need to take the computer to an authorized service center. The nearest was 50 miles away. They couldn't really explain what happened, but they reformatted my hard drive, erased my data and billed me $77, even though I purchased a 3 year warranty, since ""it wasn't a hardware problem."" 3 weeks later, the hard drive has crashed again. Maybe it's bad luck or a bad Apple, but don't expect a panacea. If you live in a major metropolitan area, it might not be too much of a hassle, but make sure to back everything up. The visual design of this machine is truly beautiful. I just wish the computer would work.I'm writing this review on an HP Pavilion laptop that I've have for 7 months without problem."
155939,1,Only good for a year or two,"I have been through a number of Sony DVD players, most recently this one. After a year and a half, it just quit playing all discs. Keep looking, there must be a better quality product out there."
155951,1,Poorly Written,"I got this book for almost nothing at a library sale. That's what it is worth.The author is extremely long-winded and doesn't follow the most basic of good writing. Perhaps there is some deep wisdom in here, but it's impossible to get to because the writing is so sluggish. Clearly, there are much better books available."
155971,1,Didnt work!,We bought these for 6 of our doors. We had the locks on the doors for only 15 minutes till our 2 year old...he had JUST turned two...was able to open the doors even with the locks on them. lol. Buy at your own risk...just hold onto the packages.
155991,1,Chesky chesty,I have yet to hear a recording of any musical substance from Chesky and would never spend another penny on anything with Ana Caram which has to be one of the least talented singer from Brazil needing hormone injections or something to put some energy into her anemic delivery.
156015,1,Spyware Doctor crippled my computer,"I wish I had read the reviews more carefully before purchasing this item. Almost the day it was installed, we started having problems. The computer would freeze anytime an application was opened. We couldn't use Microsoft Outlook or Internet Explorer without turning off the Spyware Doctor. It used so much memory, there was no room for any application to run. Even turned off, it somehow seemed to be creating problems. The computer was freezing frequently and I couldn't even shut down properly. I finally removed the Spyware Doctor from the system completely, and now the computer is back to normal. Spyware Doctor is going in the trash."
156039,1,This book was like a joke you don't understand,"After reading all the fine words and hyperbole on the back cover, I tucked-in, expecting a gripping read. The reality was far from it; I couldn't find any substance to get stuck into. Granted, there were a few interesting ideas and slightly surprising twists, but by-and-large nothing really jumped out at me. If anything, the book left me feeling confused. I'm suspicious that one of the characters in the book stole the plot. Sorry, JG, but turning each page was a soul-breaking chore. Can you send me the bits that were missing?"
156070,1,Part 2,I was excited about getting this book since I truly enjoyed the first. Got it. SADLY disappointed! Same illustrations...same explanations...same EVERYTHING except section on Bridge!!! WORTHLESS if you have the first...valuable if you don't. Wish I had saved my money!
156085,1,Disappointed,"I was very disapointed with this keyboard mouse combo. I specifically bought it because I need PS2 keyboard/mouse. The thin clients I use have the PS2 connectors close together therefore the usb to ps2 adapters don't fit.Not only wasn't this a PS2 keyboard/mouse, but it only contained a single usb to ps2 adapter, so even if the adapter would fit, I would need to go out and purchase another.A terrible example of false advertising."
156096,1,Never worked,"I bought 2 of these little adapters and both of them failed to work with my compact flash cards(multiple cards). one did not light up and the other's lights came on, but did not read in my computer."
156154,1,Short changed on toner,Cartridge was advertised as 4000 page capacity. Received 1500 pages. Will not buy from Amazon again.
156173,1,OLD and Terrible,"Put it this way HORRIBLE..The start of URIAH HEEP...Love Uriah Heep,,but sadly dissappointed.."
156179,1,Broken,"It came broken, I sent it back. I had to go last minute Christmas Shopping...and I still haven't received another piece from Amazon!"
156199,1,Just ok,This not a strong scent. I mean you can barely smell it. I would like more if the scent lasted longer than 5 mins.
156259,1,Everyone gushes...,"Recently listened to his CD's and was subjected to him live (opening for Richard Thompson). Pretentious, derivative, mediocre and burnt out are the first four adjectives that come to mind. Why all the gushing and no reasoned critique of this ""artist""?"
156294,1,Hype,"This book is worth reading, only if you are really bored. Can we say characterization? Obviously not! This is more a blow by blow of some hyped up superlative child, than an actual tale of futuristic life. Social Darwinism at it's best. A must have for every little child who thinks that they are a genius"
156345,1,AVOID - An absolute PIECE OF JUNK,"Been using Norton Internet Security for the last 4 years. No real problems except for obvious sluggishness of my PC after installing it but okay I can put up with that. My PC was always stand alone with an internet connection but recently installed a little home Network - and thats when the nightmares began. This product will NOT allow me to share a folder on my network. Have scoured the internet for solutions, which was an eye opener as LOTS of people have had similar problems with this product, spent 3 hours with some symantec technical ""support"" guy located in India and I still have the problem. On top of that it is almost impossible to remove from a computer once installed unless you hack your registry, and lastly one of the worst things is you CANNOT kill the cc* processes that it spawns. My solution to my problem was to buy myself a copy of ZoneAlarm Internet Security and lo and behold have had no problems whatsoever."
156358,1,"LOVE RICKY, BUT...","I love Ricky Smiley's prank calls, but this CD left alot to be desired. It seemed that alot of the callers Didn't get upset or ""ghetto"" like the callers from his earlier CDs. Most of them began laughing at how ridiculous the calls were , which took away from comedy of it all."
156432,1,NIKKI,I BOUGHT THIS FOR MY FIVE YEAR OLD AND SHE DIDN'T HAVE ANY INTEREST IN IT. THIS VIDEO REALLY IS FOR 2 TO 4 YEARS OLD. SHE DID NOT WANT TO EVEN TRY DOING THE MOVEMENTS.
156534,1,Silverstone can't even keep this comedy afloat.,"This film has bad acting, bad plotting, and bad writing. The film was obviously made only to showcase Silverstone's charm so comically shown in ""Clueless"", but she, nor any other cast members, is not given enough to work with. Only gets 2 stars for a couple of funny (but not that funny) lines, and the fact that I loved ""Clueless""!"
156538,1,A disgusting disgrace,"When I was 6 years old and living in Germany on an air force base our family went to see this movie. Of course at that time I loved it, because the WWII infantry men were my hero's. I'm now 42 and a student of WWII history and last night had the embarrassment of viewing the movie and had a good laugh. Like the M48s (?) used for the German Panzer divisions, or what about the ""desert"" scenes. If anyone has ever read anything on the Battle of the Bulge they will realize that this was the coldest and snowiest winter since anyone could remember. My standard in judging a war movie is always taking into account what year the movie was made and the technology of the time. That's why I could excuse the pyrotechnics and other ""realistic's"" (excuse the term), but this movie was cheesy to the core. I'm actually surprised Henry Fonda even considered acting in this movie."
156575,1,Much ado about nothing....,"Disjointed, poorly written. Ending of book leaves lots of loose ends. Author has poor command of English language, and even less of Spanish..."
156614,1,Unintentionally hilarious.,"It's a sometimes sad tale, though lightened by the unbelievably pompous and juvenile prose style of the author. Her desperate attempts at pretentiousness are undermined by her lack of facility with language. This would be a fine title for anyone interested in learning how not to write."
156620,1,Average Read - Borrow it - Don't Buy it,"This book is for entertainment purposes only. If you are looking for a good book to read, this is not it. The writing was very simple and the plot predictible. Was not worth the purchase of $15.00 that I paid."
156750,1,Fools only,nelly is only liked by people who are mentally challangedwhy dont people try to enlighten themselvesbuy a Tupac cd
156867,1,Everybody Loves Rainman,"How would you like to watch a group of thinly characterized, shallow, petty, meanspirited people put each other down without a hint of cleverness or wit? How would you like to hear a man with gigantism deliver his lines in a stilted, affected ""dumb"" voice? How would you like to watch a show where even the writers can't find a shred of likeability in their characters?Would it make you feel better about your own petty hatreds and trivial resentments? Would it make you feel less alone in the world, or would it make you feel better to have someone to constantly look down upon from your own decidedly mediocre life?"
156890,1,Poor quality,"Very poor packaging, it was broken in two places. The chair was extremely light due to the flimsy size of the arms, spindles in the back and seat. The wood was also dry and splintered. I would not recommend for anything other than a decorator piece."
156907,1,metal smell and flavor,"I really wanted to like this machine. Besides the fact that I toyed with it to finally get the steam to froth a little bit of milk, which is hard because it is small, the espresso always tasted bad. By the end of the week, my espresso was unbearable, that's when I noticed the metal carafe smelled awful-- like lead or heated raw pipes. I had to throw it away. I don't know if my was defective but the metal aroma was too much. Will look for another model will rave reviews. That smell was so acrid that I can still sense it on my palate and in my nose. Barf!"
156947,1,Continuing to boycott,"Does no one at CBS/Paramount realize that this show is nearly 30 years old? Asking fans to pay more for 12 episodes of ""Dynasty""'s third season than Warner did for 31 episodes of Season Nine of ""Dallas"" is preposterous.""Dynasty"" is a great guilty pleasure ... but only at a sensible price point. With the flood of titles available, I'll take my dollars elsewhere, thank you."
156952,1,Would have been better as a short story,"I have read several books by John Banville, and this one I think could have benefited heavily from some editing. The author seems to enjoy creating prose more than conveying any particular ideas or creating characters. This book seems like a scetch that leaves you with the impression that you almost see a picture, but when you stop to think about it it's just a few rough lines on a page torn out of a notebook."
157004,1,not their best day in the sun,"""Disregard Of Timekeeping"" is the album to get by Bonham. Pick ""Mad Hatter"" up only if you want an out of print album to finish your collection of a band. Bonham is undoubtely Led Zeppelin wannabe's, but at least Disregard was listenable. This gets lost in a prog-rock mess. You can find a review of ""Disregard"" I did at [...]. As someone who listens to rock ablums weekly for a review blog and loved ""Disregard"" from the first minute ... ""Mad Hatter"", no matter how much I tried, wasn't worth reviewing for my blog."
157017,1,The Worse,"I have this Lion King V smile Smartridge my four year old Daughter it doesn't keep her interest at all. It's to slow and it has nothing to do but jump over logs there's no animals like in the movie, the harder level is just the same as the easy version I wish I could get my money back, future purchaser the game that comes with it is great that is the best one for your little ones to grow with.Signed Take my advise Please"
157033,1,NOT WHAT I EXPECTED!,FOR ME THIS PRODUCT HAD AN ODD SMELL AND FLAVOR THAT MADE ME NAUSEOUS. IT REMINDED ME OF THAT NASTY SUPPOSEDLY APPLE CINNAMON FLAVORED THERAFLU LIQUID MEDICINE. THE GRASSY TASTE THAT OTHER SIMILAR PRODUCTS HAVE WOULD HAVE BEEN A WELCOMED CHANGE COMPARED TO THIS. AT LEAST IT WOULD HAVE BEEN NATURAL. THIS HAS A SWEET BUT VERY ARTIFICIAL AND UNNATURAL TASTE. I WAS ONLY ABLE TO USE IT ONCE AND HAD TO THROW THE REST AWAY. I WAS NOT ALLOWED TO RETURN OR EXCHANGE THE PRODUCT SO THAT WAS 30 BUCKS DOWN THE DRAIN. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE.
157076,1,"Cheap cable same Picture Quality, Less durability in this case.","You're not going to get a better picture spending more for an HDMI cable. However, if you buy a cheap cable, you're more likely to get one that'll break easily. That is exactly what happened to one of these cables I bought. The connector on one end of the cable broke the first day I got it as I plugged it in a jack a couple times while setting up my home theater system. (Fortunately I should be able to get a full refund from Amazon).I would recommend the Impact Acoustics cable over this one. It may be a couple bucks more, but it feels much more sturdy."
157077,1,They break easily,"Price was tempting, but I pushed my DVD player in a bit too hard and the end broke right off this cable...pay a few bucks more and get something better."
157093,1,Poor Quality,"Did not work... bad quality ... kept stopping. Would never buy this again, just frustrated my baby. Looking for a good soother!"
157136,1,Sucks worse than Blair Witch,"I think they were aiming to make a ""Blair Witch Meets Godzilla"" kind of movie, but the movie just plain sucked. And not in a good way, like Ed Wood, Phil Tucker or even Anthony Cardoza movies sucked, which in spite of being horrible were still entertaining. At no point did I feel any of the ""suspense"" they were going for, it was just boring. Thank God my DVD player has a ""fast play"" speed which allowed me to plow through this turkey in less than an hour, or I would not have made it through to the end. Lots of xtras on the DVD, but why would you want to watch a short on the making of a lousy movie. Maybe the ""explaination"" of where the monster came from in the first place was in one of the xtras, but I did not care enough to invest the time finding out. Deserves zero stars, but you cannot give it less than one."
157138,1,Little Bit Disappointing!!!,"First of all this movie was made in 34 days (Watch 'The Making of Cloverfield' on DVD and you will see what I'm talking about, but I can slide that thru, since most of it was special effects. Second of all people didn't really like it for several reasons:1) TOO SHORT2) NOT BLODDY ENOUGH3) HANDHELD CAME VIEWThe only reason that I somewhat like this movie is because:1) VERY NICE SPECIAL EFFECTS2) LIKE THE MONSTER3) LIKE THE LOCATIONThis is to the people who made 'Cloverfield'If you're going to make a sequel, please concider these several things:1) MAKE IT AT LEAST 1hr50min2) WE WANT TO SEE MORE BLODDY SCENES3) PLEASE NO HANDHELD CAMERA VIEW4) MAKE THE MOVIE LOCATION IN A POPULAR LOCATION like (Los Angeles, London, ect.)"
157141,1,Is Paramount Worried??,"Yes, I think Paramount is worried. After just watching JJ Abrams ""Cloverfield"", I see why they have delayed the opening of the new Star Trek movie. Wow! What a dissapointment this movie was. I was never hooked into the idea that these people decide to document their evening of terror. If this is a sampling of the new Hollywood wonder boy Paramount might want to consider going back to the drawing board before a real icon is trashed. Where can I go to get my 14 bucks back?"
157148,1,"Dumbest,sickest movie I have ever watched","I wish I could demand my money back from the directors and producers of this stupid so called movie, made me sick to watch it, anyone buying this movie including myself is just throwing their money away..."
157183,1,Gutless music from the 1970s,"This is the type of CD which gives the 1970s such a bad name in music- gutless, no soul, performed by a former teenybopper pop star who belongs with the Carpenters, Bread, and Sajid Khan, to name a few other no-talent ""stars""."
157194,1,Disappointing,"This book should be taken out of print if it hasn't already, it has some useful points but is sooo outdated that it might as well be used as a door stop because the information is much too old and based on much older versions of the software which has evolved beyond the book.Either update the book, which may have been relevant when first published, or do buyers a favor and upload the stock to the second hand books market."
157300,1,All HDMI cables are not created equal,"I've been using HDMI cables for years now and have always thought hdmi quality was standard, regardless of brand or price. I've used generic HDMI cables that have costed less than $10 in the past (purchased from local Fry's or [...]), and the quality was excellent and still going strong after years of use. Imagine my surprise when I plug this into the back of my freshly installed Asus 5870 graphics card and everything from the bios screen to the Windows 7 loading is distorted with red pixelation. So I unplug this 25 foot dud and plug in my $3 dollar, two year old, 6ft cable from Fry's and the red distortion goes away. Maybe this was one defective cord in a million, but because it's my first bad HDMI cable after buying numerous others I say stay away completely."
157330,1,Snooze Fest,I regret ever picking up this book and I wish I had the sense to give up. I kept waiting for something to happen. And it ended so abruptly! I was so angry I put it in the recycling bin.
157476,1,Weird,This isn't at all what I expected. But I guess I'm stuck with it. It's just really weird. Yuk!
157485,1,"Sorry, but No.","I got this CD because I heard the song ""Today"" (track 4) and really liked it. After listening to the CD 3 or 4 times now, I can safely say that track 4 is the only thing on here worth listening to. I'm very disappointed."
157631,1,Poor Reprint,"As other reviwers have stated, the two volumes provide valuable, and interesting information on this legendary tank, and the units that used. it. However, the photo reproduction is a travesty; you may as well be viewing them in a dark room, through vaseline covered glasses. The publisher is to be condemned for allowing this to occur. At $30.00 for a softcover book, or $60.00 for both volumes, it is not good value. I actually bought volume one after much indecision, then decided that I would not repeat my mistake on volume two. If the photos were better, it would rate at least 4 stars."
157708,1,this doll stinks and you know it.,I think bratz are better then my scene. who is gon' pay $49.99 for this? . I think this doll looks really gross mattel does it agian!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
157809,1,Big disappointment,"I love both of these musicians. I was really disappointed in this CD, though. The recording quality is mediocre -- sounds like it was done in their garage. The songs are all too slow and too long, with simply no variety to keep your interest. I'd definitely recommend you go with either artist's other recent releases instead."
157847,1,boring and not diverse,The 30 min and full workout are the exact same except the full workout is just repeated. Didn't feel like a good workout.
157882,1,very disappointed,I bought this pool light show in mid-July and the thing doesnt work after the first use. The lights are hardly visable in the water and are no where near what the picture shows. I was so looking forward having this light for our pool and all I can say is save your money this is a rip off.
157922,1,wrong item,ordered 1980 video with simon jones. received different video. my fault for never returning wrong item.
157932,1,terrible with water,"this watch is not made for underwater activity. I already returned the first one i bought from amazon because the ticking was sporadic and then the one i received allowed in moisture and now the face has water drops inside. this is a terrible watch, i would just spend a little more a buy a better quality and avoid the disappointment and frustration with this watch."
158022,1,Yo! King baby,"This series proved conclusively that James Cameron is NOT the king of the world. He's not even the King of Kensington! (for you non-Canadians Kensington is a neighborhood in Toronto and Cameron is Canadian). This idea is interesting, but the execution was amateurish. For a guy with access to so much money, the series had a pretty cheap look to it. Sets are terrible and repetitive, not to mentinn derivative and cliched. The stories are preposterous, generally speaking. There are a few interesting episodes, worthy of the best television but, unfortunately, they are few and far between. Try to catch the series on TV."
158059,1,Junk product,"I bought one of these to take back to the UK after my holiday in the USA, arrived back in the UK - powered the machine up - dead as a dodo. Complained to Samsung UK, they were not interested as I had lost the international warranty card. They offered to repair it at my expense or I could send it back to Amazon, this latter option was not viable as I would have had to pay customs duty when the repaired or replacement item arrived in the UK so in effect I have a lightweight door-stop suitable for a doll's house or a door wedge. I will never buy another Samsung product as the quality control and factory checking on my sample was apparently non-existent."
158151,1,Unrealized potential,"The title should be ""Dark Novel."" The characters are generally not likable, even the protagonist. For much of the book, you will say ""Who cares?"" At other times, you'll say ""I don't believe that."" I have not been a HUGE Patterson fan, but even I was surprised and how much I disliked this book. The plot line explaining the crimes makes some sense, but several of the details and the buildup will leave you shaking your head. Silent Witness is a better alternative."
158161,1,Annoying,"That ""gripper"" feature basically just means the bags will be hard to fit onto your garbage can. The bags seem to tear pretty easily, too."
158296,1,Made in America,"That's too bad that it boasts ""Made In America"". When it came, the hinge parts for the door were missing."
158345,1,"Spiritless, Pointless, Meaningless","This is a book of vacuous characters who do nothing. The plot goes nowhere while it follows Holly Golightly everywhere. While engaging in an endless round of socializing, she fails to endear herself in any way. I would certainly not waste my life chasing this shallow bimbo. The film version of ""Breakfast at Tiffany's"" must have been a success because the entire script was rewritten to include only the original title. I give this book 1 star only because it was so mercifully short."
158355,1,Flimsy if used indoors!,"We purchased two of these plastic pens..and it was a big mistake! We tried to set them up in the 4 x 6 rectangle dimension and the door sags forward terribly. It is not sturdy for inside use unless maybe if it is in the octagon shape, then perhaps a little more sturdy..but still not worth the money spent. I would send these back to Amazon, if I hadn't opened them. Quality is much poorer than I expected it to be. I wish I had never ordered them...in my opinion they are a huge waste of money."
158465,1,unfortunately disgusting,"An unfortunate and disgusting play on ""research"" -- inauthentic sources and second-hand guesses at best. Definitely a biased Orientalist book with biased and prejudiced information. Books and information by author Karen Armstrong are much less biased and more honestly developed."
158490,1,"title should be: ""Redefining the Yuppie""","This book was an easy read and it was fun to learn what peopledo with their lives. However, halfway through the book, yourealize the ""real people"" in this book are allwhite (or asian) whining yuppies in the 25-35age range and it gets annoying. Oh gee, next time I gothrough life going to ivy league schools, and I'mtorn between my job as a professional dancer anda stock broker with a zillion dollar salary andI want to quit it all to become a school teacher, but I haveto sell my BMW, I'll know i'm not alone."
158505,1,kind of misleading,"The amazon description was:leatherCasual fashion belt that moves with you and conforms to the waistExpands approximately 1"" without extra tabs or attachmentsPadded leather tabs and loopSatin silver finished buckleWear with jeans or sportswearThe first Item ""Leather"" is misleading, the belt actually states ""Genuine Leather with Bonded Lacing made in china""So the only real leather part is the portion on both ends that buckle together, the mesh or majority of this beltis in fact not real leather at all. That would probably explain other reviewers comments about longevity and stretching!Had I known it was primarily bonded I would have chosen something else."
158574,1,A Primer on the Shih Tzu,"""Dr. Ackerman's Book of Shih Tzu"" is a good starting point. It has excellent photos illustrating dental hygiene, nail trimming, ear cleaning and paw trimming. This book gives good suggestions on choosing a puppy and the Shih Tzu's nutrition. If you are a beginner with this breed and just want an overall view, this would be a good book to start with."
158582,1,A bit dissapointing,"I work as a flower designed specially with brides bouquets. It is a beautiful book with gorgeous photos, but the bouquets presented are mainly conventional. If you are looking for inspiration and new ideas on bouquets, I would not say this is the book for you."
158609,1,Warning!,"Warning! I love Fun Fun but I never buy CD's from Hot Productions anymore. They both look and sound cheap. It's known among music fans that the sound quality is awful on their CD's, so stay away from them!"
158613,1,Came to me already ripped in two places,These came as advertised and in a timely manner. What I didn't like was the tear in the elastic band (which functionally replaces shoelaces) on the right shoe. This causes the my right heel to come out of the shoe when I walk simply because the shoe is not tight enough. There is also a tear in the piece of canvas on the left shoe that holds the grommets. When I walk the hole opens up on the side of my foot.I'm wearing these because I'm in Afghanistan and have no other sneakers to use until the replacement set I ordered from another vendor arrives. Returning these would not be practical as it involved significant bother and cost using the military postal system. If the vendor had sent a non-defective pair of sneakers in the first place there would be no reason for this bad review.
158666,1,not recommended,"This book is definitely not a good introduction to Falun Gong. On the back cover, this book claims to be the first objective scholarly account of the practice. I was shocked however, reading chapter 3 of the book, it showed absolutely no substance or clarity. For a book billing itself as a ""scholarly"" account, the authors were sarcastic, cynical and terribly disrespectful of a belief system that spread faster than any in history - 100 million practitioner worldwide within 6 years of being spread.There are much better ""3rd party"" accounts of Falun Gong - a documentary, ""Beyond the Red Wall"", being one of them.However, if you really want to understand the teachings of Falun Gong you have to read them yourself, just read the the books written by Mr. Li Hongzhi, Falun Gong and then Zhuan Falun."
158738,1,Really bad.,"My daughter is a Thomas fanatic and bought this with her own money at the toy store. It is by far the worst board game I've ever had to play. It is very non-linear, in that you are not going from Point A to Point B. It's also repetitive and infuriating in its lack of sense. My daughter likes it just because it has her beloved Thomas, but we just groan when she brings it out. It really could have been much better. I hate when they will just put a popular character on anything. Would it have cost them more to have this make sense?"
158870,1,Nothing fantastic here!,"What do you do when you run out of material and have fragments of uncompleted novels? You put them together in this book and have(or pay)a ""friend"" write a glowing introduction. Bentley Little begins the intro by stating Ed Gorman is a writer's writer. Bentley Little also didn't read the entire book.The sci-fi shorts are okay. The ""horror"" predictable. There's a story in here called ""Rite of Passage"" which reminds me of an Aesop fable. There's also a couple of stories about hitchhikers, serial killers and a blind woman with a healing touch. I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone I know. 2 stars for the sci-fi."
158872,1,not really that great if you are looking for a training vid.,I was expecting to see roy jones doing crazy boxing/conditioning drills. I was let down. He is trained by some high pitched guy who is very distracting and does not motivate at all. The video quality/production value is pretty poor too. The only reason I give it two stars is for RJJ. He is the man.
158875,1,no light,"I bought this lamp back in December and for four months it worked properly, then May hits and the light goes out. Everything else looks fine, the light for the season is working and the ""water-me"" indicator is still functional, so I thought I needed a new light bulb, even though it had only been such a short amount of time. You can't get light bulbs for this lamp at lowes and home depot anymore though so I had to get them from amazon. I finally got the bulbs in yesterday and it still doesn't work, but of course the window to return it for a full refund had past in January, so what I have is either a partial refund coming my way or an awkard set up to tell me when to water my plant."
158909,1,pixma780 beware,never worked right out of the box.canon has terrible help by phone and online.ive had it for 2 years the scanner and outgoing fax has never worked.the printing does good job from Word thats about it.the color pics are not to bad.the color carts. don't last very long
158924,1,Outdated classic in the field,"While many consider this text the classic in the field, I think that it's time to find something a bit more modern. do Carmo often skips steps in his proofs or examples that he deems ""obvious"" but that my professor even had to spend a good deal of time trying to figure out how to bridge the gap. The writing style and terminology are beginning to show their age, and the exercises are particularly incomprehensible. Also, the few examples that are actually included don't give any insight into doing the exercises, which seem to be written primarily as a way for do Carmo to include topics that he couldn't squeeze into the body of the text. The hints in the back of the book are often too vague to provide any useful insight into solving the problem, especially for someone not familiar with geometry. Hope that you don't have to use this text for a first course in differential geometry, and if you do, hope that the professor writes his/her own exercises."
158952,1,Broken in 2 weeks,"One of the two stools broke just as I was moving (normally) it from one side of the room to another. Seriously, I put it toghether not even two weeks ago and didnt even use it! I pretty much traveled all days for two weeks! I had bought 2 before and reviewed as nice, because they do look nice! And decided to buy another 2! Big mistake!"
158955,1,Waste of money. They should be ashamed.,"I too bought this based on the good reviews. Now I see the bad reviews popping up. Too late for me but not for you! Don't buy this. Although it does seem very nice when you first unpack it, it does not perform anywhere near it's price expectation. I have returned it after several frustrating sessions of angry kids and wasted batter.My experience has been much the same as the last 2 reviewers. But I want to add one thing. The cord on this unit seems thin and cheap. That is an indicator of poor power management right there as something that would need the power this hulk needs to be and stay hot would have a more substantial cord.I echo the other negative reviews, do not buy this, you will be sorry."
158969,1,Disappointing,Don't waste your time and certainly don't waste your money. If you're looking for a book to relax with and read on your summer vacation this is NOT the book. The characters have no depth and no personality. The story line is nothing but surface fluff and the author makes no attemp to explore the crisis her characters face. By the 24th chapter I thought surely this book would have an exciting climax - NO!...instead the author inserts unrealistic epitaths to wrap up her story in a hurried and inconclusive way. Don't waste your time. Read the Three Sisters Trilogy instead.
159023,1,One of the Dumbest Movies Ever Made,"I have seen thousands of movies in the last 55 years, but this was, without a doubt, one of the ten dumbest movies I have ever seen in my life.It was basically a kid's movie, but done like an adult movie.The dialogue was totally wooden, and purposely so.The plot and scenes were totally lame. In fact, the further the movie went along, the dumber everything got. It finally got so stupid that, about three-fourths of the way through it, I just stopped watching.I can't understand, for the life of me, why someone would make something so inane."
159053,1,Self-righteous stereotyping and not much else,"What were the critics thinking when they praised this book? Were they warned that ""only smart people"" would see the supposed intricacy and hidden sophistication?At the end of the book, it seems that Trevanian did a lot of research, but for what? All we get is a barrelful of stereotypes, a politically correct western with no memorable, inspiring or profound writing."
159123,1,Not Natural or Very Calming,"This album is forced, and feels like someone tried very hard to produce a Japanese product without knowing what the Reiki practitioner needs during a treatment. That is, a relaxing CD with low tones, calming effects, and natural sounds [most of the sounds are via a sound sampling sythesizer and have a clipped quality]. All this is not what this album delivers and I cannot recommend this for a practitioner, but it may be OK for ambient music otherwise."
159151,1,"DO NOT BUY THESE!!! Cheap Plastic, Exposed Wiring issues","Trust me. Trust me. Trust Me - Do buy these! I agree with all the reviews that say the sound is great and the buds are comfortable and it is cheaper than the higher rank ones. The issue I have with that is that they ARE cheaper, but, if you use them as often as I do, the cables get TANGLED up and are made of CHEAP PLASTIC and the WIRING GETS EXPOSED and eventually they become unusable. So, not I need to get new ones and pay more. Not so chepa after all. Only cheaply made.I NEVER write reviews unless I feel strongly and I do. I called SONY and complained and got nothing back from them. Splurge for the better ones, because you're going to pay anyway!"
159154,1,Lack of extension,"This earphones lack a descent extension cord. ITs very small cable, but its of good quality. Sadly, cord its too short, and the extension is useless."
159302,1,A Vast Wasteland!,"What coulda been a contenda for a great thriller about nuclear material missing for over 60 years, turned out to be nothing more than a tired old mystery about valuable gems. The only saving grace was looking at Kate Beckinsale and seeing Tom Skerritt, two actors whose skills were wasted in a wasteland. The setting may have been novel but not the contrived story.And let's get real, going out in 60 below (Centigrade or not) temps for longer than a minute is VERY dangerous!It took four screenwriters to come up with this crap?Unless you have 87 minutes to wile away or don't mind briefly seeing a hottie in her underwear, DO NOT buy, rent or steal this movie."
159342,1,Nano block,"The armband fit well and the clip on back of unit was great to clip onto waistband. However, biggest drawback was that the Nano controls were partially blocked by the case, unlike the photo in the ad."
159344,1,cute but dont stick,"loved the way it looked, but it didn't stay on the wall but about 5 mins. Oh well, what's next."
159378,1,Stupid.,"There's only two songs that are tight, they are ""Still Fly"" and ""Oh Yeah!"" I burned this from a friend, and I'm glad I didn't waste my money on this garbage."
159493,1,Do not buy this one,"This product come with old version of firmware. Upgradeunsuccess. The technical support is very poor, lacking ofBasic knowledge."
159580,1,"A ""mystery"" for morons","This one actually deserves ZERO stars, but I can't go lower than 1 star on this format. I had read one or two of MHC's books, and hated them both for being simplistic and predictable(I can't remember the titles). But on a trip to NYC from my home in CA, I needed something quick to read on the plane, and this book was the closest thing at hand at the airport souvenir shop. Sure enough, the plot was predictable, the characters dull and one- dimensional, and -- trust me!! -- there's more to being in the Witness Protection Program than the very brief, skimmed-over, and INACCURATE facts MHC gives us. I couldn't finish it. I left it in the hotel room. PEOPLE, SAVE YOUR MONEY!!! This one really stinks."
159588,1,POOR Quality - Not worth the inexpensive price,"This table is extremely poorly made. We were barely able to assemble it. It wouldn't hold up for one week with active play. The life expectancy of this table is not worth the money. You don't even get what you pay for - it's cheap but won't last long enough to be worth the $120 or so it costs. I'd rather pay more to get a quality game table that will last. This one will be in the dump before the end of the year. After this experience, I don't recommend purchasing game tables on-line. I'd rather inspect them in person first to test the craftsmanship."
159614,1,Not quite what I wanted,"This book only covers human / medical biomaterials. It wasnt' really clear from the information online that that's it. If that's what you want, it's probably very good - but I am much more interested in non-humans (animals and plants and stuff)."
159633,1,False History,the claim that the mickey hart project set the standard for world music is wrong. the standard was set 11 years after olatunji's ground breaking album of 1960 by osibisa in their self title dubut in 1971 and also fela's live album with ginger baker also in 1971. please tell true history not a fabricated opinion
159638,1,My Card Disintegrated,I owned the PNY SDHC 8GB card for only a few weeks when it literally just disintegrated. The plastic cracked and it started breaking everywhere. It was well cared for and none of my other cards have ever broken. Staples would not take it back and referred me to PNY who says that this kind of issue is not covered. What a low budget piece of junk. Never again would I buy anything PNY.
159648,1,"Out of 100 + pages, only about 10 focused on the info needed","The 10 pages that are directed at the topic are very helpful. The remainer of this book is nothing more than a written infomerical. I would suggest going to a library instead of spending money that could keep your baby in diapers for 3 or 4 weeks! The statement I remember most from the book is ""Remember God makes the final decision""."
159698,1,"2x Porter-Cable 43221-10 1/8-Inch Spiral Up, Non-Piloted, Cutout Bit, HSS, 1/8-Inch Shank (10-Pack)","Got this through amazon from Tool King. They sent me 2 bits not 2 ""10 packs"". Amazon states 84% off and they still sell for 1.99?! I found that very misleading and outright ridiculous how much the price was inflated just to advertise such a huge discount. Tool King did refund me my money though.Porter-Cable 43221-10 1/8-Inch Spiral Up, Non-Piloted, Cutout Bit, HSS, 1/8-Inch Shank (10-Pack)"
159796,1,roto tile bits,"roto tile bits will do a good job on thin ceramic tiles for cutouts-straight cuts are hard-thick tile,marble,etc-forget it--bits burn up quickly on cement backer board and at $5.99 are not cost effective. Buy a small diamond blade for your 4"" grinder--makita-dewalt etc. which are very effective, with a little practice they work fine--wear a dust mask and eye protection"
159918,1,overrated,"This is overrated. They said the movie was breathtaking in simplicity. Yeah it was simple...There was nothing going on in the movie....Ziyi runs around the movie with ponytails...thats it!!!! what the hell kind of movie is this???? the only reason its here is the success of crouching tiger, hidden dragon...and after all that happens with nothing going on, the ending is a letdown as well.....lousy!!!!"
160039,1,Uugh!,"Yoko is and was a complete ""NO TALENT!""The only person who thought that she had any redeeming qualities whatsoever as a musician was Lennon himself.If you buy this, you're nuts. Don't pad her bank account. This witch broke up the Beatles..yes, Yoko fans, all two of you, SHE DID!"
160048,1,Do not buy this if you are not 100% sure its what you need,This order will ship from a 3rd party called Tech Depo. I ordered 2of them for the wrong slot type and they DO NOT ACCEPT RETURNS!!!SO now I am out over 500 dollars.Be careful
160076,1,Works fine - after you perform surgery on it...,"Before you buy this headset, please know you will at some point have to take it apart and fix Motorola's mistake.I sent this to my father for Father's Day, and was pretty angry that he had to take it apart and remove a piece of rubber/foam that was blocking anyone from hearing his voice.He synced it up fine to his phone, and he was able to hear whomever he called, but they couldn't hear him - and this was brand new out of the box!This is NOT an uncommon problem with these headsets, as I quickly found on Google.However, I was SO thankful to also find a quick solution here: http://www.geocities.com/jconkwright/H700fix.htmlUnfortunately, I'm still pretty angry as my dad had to perform surgery on his own gift for it to even work.I'm only giving it 2 stars b/c it does work now.

160147,1,Badly Advertised,"I looked forward to getting this Abbot & Costello DVD with great anticipation of sharing it with my children. I especially looked forward to their ""Who's on First"" routine. I was greatly disapointed.Most of the material on the DVD comes from an early television program and was probably very funny at the time. Taking it out of that context, however, leaves it less than amusing.The greatest disappointment was the clip of ""Who's on First"". Not only did they abridge the routine, it's done as an afterthought during a cameo appearance. What you find on the internet is much better.My recommendation - if you're looking for the real Abbott & Costello, don't look here."
160170,1,Don't buy this,"These CD-ROMs have lots of information, good graphics and sound, but are very difficult to navigate. There is no way to exit or end. I had to shut down my computer to get it to stop. There is no point to using them if you can't use them easily. I would not recommend this product."
160234,1,More of the Same,"I was unimpressed with the book, but it is consistent with Ernest Holmes. If you have Science of Mind, you have read it all. Ernest Holmes has a way of using pages and pages of words to say ""Yes, you can talk to God"". A waste of money, now on the shelf and soon to be returned to the universe at a thrift store near you."
160263,1,Broke within the first month!!,"I was really excited about this coffeemaker, until it broke after we used it to make 1 carafe M-Fr for about 4 weeks straight. So, in hindsight, it appears that this coffeemaker is probably ok for ""light"" use, but not ok if you plan on drinking coffee daily."
160328,1,Good News/Bad News is,"You don't have to buy the box set just to get the covers--but that's all they are, cover tunes. You can probably grab them off of Kazaa. The price isn't bad (cheaper on CD Universe though). He does choose some interesting songs to cover though."
160371,1,MGA copied Mattel!,"Okay so what if I hasn't come out. I know just as much about it as you do! Bratz are slutty! They wear way skimpier clothes than My Scene. You guys are the losers. MGA is a loser. It's okay for bratz to have cool things, but not when everything is copied from Mattel!"
160372,1,Get THE MY SCENE GOES HOLLYWOOD MOVIE!!!,"The last Bratz movie was all about fashion. ""Is there such a thing as fashionitus?"" The My Scene movies were about fashion, friendship, music, art, sports, and more. Get the real deal. Like BruinBear said, go for My Scene Goes Hollywood!"
160380,1,Horrible - worst software I've tried in a long long time,"This entire package is so poorly done, I don't know where to begin. The instructions are useless, the software did not work for my LG AX4270, kit comes with a usb cable and if you try to do their manual install there is no way to select a usb cable, you're told to enter a cable number which is on the packaging...there is no number, the cable end has a 6 digit number but the field will only take a 4 digit number, and on and on and on. I am not a novice and have been a computer tech for 20 years...this package certainly ranks in the Top 10 worst software products I have ever used."
160383,1,I love Koestler. Don't start here.,"The Call-Girls is a novel evidently intended as a ""popularization"" -- since people like to read novels! -- of ideas that Koestler covered more exhaustively in his book-length essays, in particular The Ghost in the Machine and Janus: A Summing Up. The fictional structure is really little more than a skeletal frame into which Koestler has dumped (sometimes verbatim) arguments that he formulated elsewhere: A dozen ""quirky"" professor-types (one giggles, one blushes, one's outspoken and gay, one does ten things at once, etc.) -- the jetsetting symposia-attending call-girls of the title -- come together in Switzerland to discuss how mankind is to be saved from itself. So that's what they do. As story, this is less than gripping; and either of the abovementioned nonfiction titles will serve as a better introduction to Koestler's ideas, which ARE gripping."
160407,1,Didn't work!,The Linksys wireless adapter was fairly easy to install (it took longer to open the computer) but installing the software was a pain. The software is not user friendly and seemed pretty unprofessional. It had little in the area of help or troubleshooting and not even my father who is a computer programmer could figure it out. It didn't work at all in the end and I will find another brand of adapter instead of getting a replacement.
160447,1,Don't waste your money on this DVD,"Don't waste your hard earned money on this DVD Set. I bought this set because of the price but now I regret it. This is a bunch of boring documentaries put together, featuring a bunch of unknown and not very credible researchers telling us why they think UFOs and Alien Abductions are real. I agree that there's a lot of informations on this documentary, but a lot of the cases are not very credible so what's the point ?? This is a proof that quality is a lot more important than quantity. I am disappointed because usually Mill Creek Entertainment produce good documentaries ( ""America's 60 greatest Unsolved Mysteries and Crimes"", ""Vegas: The city the Mob made"", America's Serial Killers: Portraits in Evil"" ).Don't waste your money on this DVD. If you want to buy real documentaries about UFOs then buy ""I know what I saw"", ""UFOs: The Best Evidences"" or ""Unsolved Mysteries: UFOs""."
160474,1,defective,"just because about half way through it had a defect and did not play anymore, and also I did not know that it would be in Italian"
160490,1,Wife hates it,Wife loves the original Curls Rock Amp....this product does not define her curls at all..just makes them look flat and dried out. She is going back to the original.
160498,1,Not for adults,"I had the opportunity to work with Jim Varny shortly before his untimely passing. When I saw this video I remembered vaguely, that it was a TV program. What I didn't remember was that it is purely for little kids. I haven't been one of those for a very long time. It's a pretty silly program, but I'm sure kids got a kick out of it."
160523,1,"product is fine, communication wasn't","I ordered this item on October 5. It was supposed to have been delivered within the window on Oct. 10-18. I e-mailed e-toys twice and received no response. Finally, on October 25, it came in the mail, just in time for Halloween. I won't be using this seller again."
160549,1,There are good books and then this is this book,"I am still stunned I wasted my money on this one. It's obvious the person that wrote it knows nothing about weapons usage or Martial Arts. This is some of the worst reading I have ever MADE myself do. From what I understand, this was the authors first book. I hope he didn't quit his day job"
160605,1,"Good supplemental reading, but rely on the PMBOK!","This book provided some good information and presented some of the stodgy content of the PMBOK in a matter-of-fact approach. I would not rely on this book, however, as it delves into a lot of material not covered on the exam. If you get caught up in the complex formulas in the CAPM guide, you are likely to miss the key 4 or 5 formulas that the CAPM exam actually covers. I passed the exam, although I relied principally on the PMBOK. For an entry-level exam such as the CAPM, the PMBOK is really all you need. For those with little to no PM experience, a couple of supplemental readings such as this one may be helpful. Good luck!"
160631,1,DUMB WASTE OF TIME...,"I read about 80 books a year, and this one was a TOTAL WASTE of time. The main character, Sydney Archer, is a blonde dingbat. Simpering and helpless one moment, she's Wonder Woman the next, demonstrating unbelievable prowess. A really annoying character, one begins to hope that the bad guy wins. The book goes all over the map with complicated interactions among a host of characters, but none of it is credible. Don't waste your time. Baldacci must have needed the money to write something this bad."
160652,1,Like my old one better,"I wish I could say good things about this backpack. The child part is very nice, the baby rides very comfortably. But the weight distribution for me to carry it is all wrong. If it was just me who had a problem with carrying it I'd say its because I'm short but my brother who is 6 foot also had a problem. With it 3 minutes of putting the pack on we both had shoulder pain. I readjusted the pack so the back support hit very low and the pain lessened but then if I didn't lean forward I felt like it was pulling me over backwards. 14 years ago I had a CHEAP one (about $25.00) and never had these problems. I even used it once with this baby but the fabric that supported the baby ripped."
160659,1,i hate rap,i hate HIP HOP its the worst music. i don't even listen to rap and i hear the radio stations playing the same song 5 times with in the same hour. whys that because there aint no good music besides maybe one or two. your all helmet buffers. this cd is the perfect example just look at the cover
160703,1,Not worth it!,"By far some of the worst acting I've ever seen - the little girl seemed to be casted off the street, clearly no acting experience and over acts all her lines. The little boy is okay, the adults are the best part. Don't waste your time on this one."
160717,1,Trash game,This game makes you want to throw up by the bad graphics and because of what the people look like and they don't even help you on this game.I suggest you throw this game away and you would rather be in prison than play this game.
160755,1,Expression Web Crashes A Lot,I bought the upgrade version of Expression Web and installed it on a computer with Vista Ultimate. It crashes often. I loose work whenever it crashes if I don't save constantly. Micrsoft seems to release software before it is perfected. This causes alot of grief for people who use computers for a living. Expression Web is different from FrontPage 2003 in many ways. Expect a two week education curve in order to use EW. I've heard of problems with Expression Web and XP as well. Microsoft is getting a rather bad reputation that will lead people to buy elsewhere...
160806,1,No Customer Service - BAD,I've had my TC 100 time clock for 9 years and it works fine but I need a key for it to open it and there is no such company as Royal Company to contact. I've googled it and can't find a number. Don't get this machine because there is no way of servicing it!!
160818,1,Farewell Summer,"After reading Ladies of the Club, I expected this book to be of similar quality.I was disappointed. It never really developed into an interesting story. It was also very short whichI feel should have been noted by Amazon in the description."
160879,1,Disappointment,"I guess I just expected more quality for the price. Two other Christmas videos that I'd bought from Amazon cost much less but had sharper images. I'm giving it away, as I'm not interested in playing it again."
160902,1,Cute but....,"The cards are cute but.. We are in the pecan business and the ""squirrel"" looks like to us to be a chipmonk. I personal collect squirrels and it doesn't look like any I have from all over the world. Also the card picture isn't done well around the edges. And ther are 10 cards in a box, I had to buy them to find out. Lori"
160948,1,"First, We are Victims","This book encourages victimhood. We are overweight because we live in a man's world. So carry around a feed-bag and soothe your anger.I agree that dieting as a result of self-hatred is a poor motivation that will never work. But I am overweight because of choices I made yesterday that are a reality today. It's not my husband's or my father's or anyone's fault.A better book is ""The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People,"" which I am currently reading. This book teaches that we are only victims when we choose to be. Once we get that, we can go from their and dump all that anger-based, victimhood ""momentum."""
161086,1,Feh!,"Pedantic, pedestrian and painful to read.Here are a few little problems with this book: poorly written characters with no redeeming qualities, a trite and over-used plot, and flat, uninteresting writing.Please, for your own well-being, and the well-being of those around you who don't want to hear you yelling in frustration at trying to get through this drek, find something else to read."
161089,1,Davy goes grunge!,"The new version of the song ""Girl"" by Davy Jones made me want this cd. The movie was corny but funny and when I heard Davy's song-well, it just made the movie have spice! Get this movie and cd if you and your friends feel like ""monkeying"" around or if you have a sweetheart."
161164,1,Avoid the DirecTV Trap...,"I am currently trapped in a DirecTV contract. Every time it rains, the TV signal is lost. Additionally, DirecTV nickles and dimes me to death. They advertise you can get programming starting at $29.99, but you will not get out for anything less than about $60.00 once they add all the hidden fees. Additionally, you must pay an extra $5 for each additional TV. We also have the DVR service which is so unreliable, we have to use a VCR as back-up to ensure we get our shows recorded.Recently, we had to move and suspended our account during the move. After we reactivated our account, we were charged late fees for bills we never received. Our contract was extended another two years without our consent. We called DirecTV service, and they do not care.Once my contract is over, we will be cancelling DirecTV to go back to cable."
161182,1,Not the soundtrack of the movie.,"I always thought that a soundtrack of a motion picture would include all the music played during that motion picture. Apparently this is not the case. I was really looking forward to hearing ""Carol of the Bells"", and ""White Christmas"" by the Drifters, but they are not on this CD, nor are any of the other songs. I guess the secret is to look for the words ""various artists"" to ensure getting the soundtrack. This CD contains only the music written especially for the movie. So you better watch out, you better not cry...."
161226,1,poor,"This product is just awful. It arrived cracked, which really wasn't its biggest problem. The bumpers to hold the gate in place were totally inefficient, because the holes for the pumper screws were drilled too large. I returned it immediately."
161227,1,Terrible!!!! Do Not Buy!!,"Do not buy. This Gate is awful! Zero Stars! It did not come as pictured. The pressure fit knobs shown in the photo are instead flat plastic (which is useless) and the 'nuts' that would presumably keep the knobs in place are enormous. The problem? Once assembled, the doggie door does not close and the gate does not pressure fit in doorway. Completely useless."
161298,1,Not for me.,"Could not find a way to finish this. This was a book club selection, and just not my cup of hemlock."
161363,1,Do not buy,DO NOT BUY!!!!!!!Do not buy until they release each season in its entirety. Not this vol 1 vol 2 business. I will not buy until I can get the entire season at one time.
161407,1,Ruined a perfectly good novel.,"If EL Doctrow were dead, I would assume he'd be rolling in his grave. The music, a pop-happy score written by the same pasty white schmucks responsible for such CRAP as ""Seussical"" and ""Once on this Island"" (THEY'RE NOT BLACK), WON A TONY? And not just one, but four? This is an awful mess of bland and meaningless power ballads. Ahrens and Flaherty should be shot. I hate this show. I hate it. It is awful."
161437,1,CRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP!!!!,This movie was nothing but rubbish - it went absolutely nowhere. It wasn't even funny - I hardly got a chuckle at most.I agree with everything the other people have said that have given this movie a 1-star rating.DO NOT make the same mistake as me and buy this DVD - rent it first if you REALLY want to waste 2 hours of your time...
161465,1,WWII in HD review and critique,"I really respect Gary Sinise and his work but this series is so jumbled and confusing as to not be in his realm of quality work. I can't figure out what I'm viewing as in most war documentaries and worse , there are no language subtitles and those of us hard of hearing miss much of what is being said. MY God, the audience for this material is the senior citizen and many of us are hard of hearing. Granted I have not seen many of these films but I'd like to know what I'm seeing. I'm consideringa return of this item. Don Mac Lagan"
161490,1,big disapointment,"HOW DARE ANYONE COMPAIR THIS TO EARLY SEPULTERA. THE GUITARS ARE REALY BORING AND SIMPLE YET TRY TO SOUND HEAVY AND LETS NOT EVEN BRING UP THE DRUMMING...TERRIBAL! SEPULTERA WAS 1000 TIMES MORE HEAVIER,ANGRIER,AGGREESIVE,THAN THIS BELOW AVERAGE D- GRADE NU METAL BAND!"
161492,1,bad bad bad,I love the movie Auntie Mame. Rosland Russel does a great job of capturing the crazy aunt caracter. I also love love love Lucile Ball. She is a wonder actress and fantastic comedian. BUT this screen play should have never been made into a musical. No matter how cool musicals were at the time. Please don't waste your money on this one and just get the earlier rendition. It will capture your heart and you will fall in love with Aunti Mame.
161499,1,"Remake ""Auntie Mame""? WHY????","Once upon a time, someone told Lucille Ball she could sing....and she believed them! Not only CAN'T she sing, she CAN'T act either. In ""Mame"", Ball has taken one of the best films of our time....the original ""Auntie Mame"".....and literally made it unrecognizeable. If you're a fan of the original, this hashed remake is actually painful to watch.Pure and simple, this movie is DREADFUL."
161553,1,Broke after a year!,"Unlike their famous mixers, this KitchenAid food processor isn't worth the money. It does not have all metal parts like the mixer and seems to be cheaply made.I used this 3-4 times a week on average for a year. The plastic part that holds the blade broke after a year (two weeks after the warranty expired) during normal use. I called KitchenAid and they gave me the name and phone number of a repair shop that repairs small KitchenAid appliances. It was the only shop in my area. I called the shop and they said they would charge me $60.00 just to look at it, plus the cost of repair and any parts that I needed! No thanks!KitchenAid needs to redesign this product and bring it up to the same standards as their mixer."
161675,1,Dishonest business practices,"I installed Stopzilla after reading a review that said it was free and downloading it from their website which said it was free. After reporting that it found some Trojans, the program said I had to upgrade for $9.95 to fix them. I did this, but my credit card was charged $39.95. I called Stopzilla about the overcharge and they said they would issue a $30 refund. The refund never showed up.They also automatically signed me up for their ""customer protection"" program which will charge me $39.95 every year. I had to call to cancel that."
161691,1,"Yes, it IS beautifully flawed.","Sure it's pretty, but it's also pretty useless. Like Hobbs (another reviewer) noted, the knob to hold the fan at a particular angle DOESN'T hold. So it blows air where IT wants, not where I want. Obviously, this is a problematic product. I should have known better, given how many ""factory reconditioned"" ones I have seen available. Gee, wonder why the factory has so many available to recondition. Dumb me for buying it. Do yourself a favor and find a real vintage fan at a thrift store."
161752,1,Great!,"Very informative. tommy Igoe is an awsome drummer and he teaches drumming in simple terms that you can understand. But in order to get better... practice, practice, practice!"
161755,1,Birthday songs cd disney,Item was purchased as an used item - decription of excellent condition. Unfortunately the item was in poor condition - constant skipping during play.
161805,1,Not the same as described,description said a dvd was includedNOT in this edition - we returned it and were sent the same edition
161819,1,This book contains a historical mistake,"For those of us living along the Lewis and Clark trail in Montana and using this book with school children who study Lewis and Clark, we found an obvious error of historical fact. Lewis and Clark never traveled into the Flathead Valley as Kroll states on page 23. Instead, the explorers crossed over Lost Trail Pass into our lovely Bitterroot Valley and traveled north to make camp at Traveler's Rest, on the edge of present day Lolo, MT. The old Lolo trail (now US highway 12) leaves the Bitterroot Valley crossing the Bitterroot Mountains to the west. Could it be Kroll became confused because the Native Americans Lewis and Clark met in the Bitterroot were the Salish Flathead tribe?"
161867,1,A Mediocre Beauty,"This is not a production for the ages but for the Royal Ballet, perhaps. Instead, check out the two best Sleeping Beauties--the 2006 Paris Opera Ballet DVD and the 2001 Kirov Ballet DVD (with Larissa Lezhnina as Aurora). The dancing and production values of the French and Russian versions are superlative in all respects. The choreography of this English version is abridged, slow, dignified, not well executed and, well, boring, with several dancers plain embarrassing (eg, the Bluebird duet). To see what the Royal Ballet used to be capable of, check out the Evening with the Royal Ballet DVD, which features ACT III of Sleeping Beauty with Margot Fonteyn from 1962. At age 40, Dame Margot was an order of magnitude better than a twenty-something Cojocaru."
161877,1,Broke in two months!,"Bought this unit and didn't even run it 24/7. Came home one day and the purifiers motor had burned out. Only had it for a couple of months. Very poorly made, save you money and look elsewhere."
161910,1,Pages are see-through,"I didn't like this particular Bible because the pages were very see-through, so you could see through the back page of words....this was very distracting and difficult to read....also some of Christs letters in red were faint on many texts. I was disappointed that the publishers made such basic and fundamental errors for the most important Book in the world."
161919,1,Premier Anti Age Cream by Dead Sea Premier,i don't like it It's nothing like the cream I previously bought.It's like trying to sread wax on my face.I have used this product for 2 years
161933,1,quality control?,"INCREDIBLY disappointed. Before opening the box, I could see smudges of cloudy goop all over the wood and cushion one of the chairs. Once I opened it, I checked it out closer, it was excess glue but fortunately, it was water soluble, so I could scrub it all off myself without too much damage to the chairs. While removing the table from the packaging, it came apart, the glue keeping the mini dowels in their paces had no hold. When I tried to glue it together myself, I discovered that it was terribly crooked, when I tried to figure out why, I noticed that they gave me two short spindles for the legs (there are five total keeping it together) so there is nothing to be done about the crookedness. The cabinet has a wonky door that gets pushed in way too easily and stuck inside and can't come out easily. Huge bummer for my little girl's dollhouse, the other two room sets we bought from this brand were acceptable, but this one makes me wonder if they have any quality control whatsoever."
161964,1,Not as described,"This bible is not a large print bible it is just normal print, very disappointed and it cost me 9.00 to return it to the USA, overland which takes about 3-4 weeks, the airmail cost would have been 18.00 postage, half the cost of the bible, my advise is to purchase in the UK, or better still find a better large print bible.Eddie TurnerVery let down customer."
161995,1,Jack end was not as shown in the picture,This was not sent as pictured. I do not like the straight ended jack because it shorts out quickly. The 'L' shaped one does not break. VERY disappointed that what was send was not as pictured.
162022,1,"Liked it less than Clickart 200,000","As a graphic artist I started with Clickart 25,000 and liked it. I upgraded to Clickart 125,000 and Clickart 200,000 as they were released. So far the Clickart 200,000 version has been the best. It came with 14 cds and 2 large volumes of well-organized thumbnails for finding the right image. I had expected more of the same. Clickart 750,000 was, unfortunately, very disappointing. No printed catalog and very few of the images I purchased were actually in the box. Most of them require online registration and downloading. That was not made clear during ordering or I would not have ordered. The book that IS enclosed titled: ""Getting Organized in the Digital Age"" seems to have very little to do with Clickart.I own several Corel products and a few from Art Explosion. Clickart 750,000 does not compare well either with these or Clickart's previous versions. Be sure you know exactly what you are getting and are sure this is indeed what you want."
162067,1,Not worth the money,"Grim Tuesday was just a remake of Mister Monday. The whole plot is the same- Arthur must find his way into the House and navigate his way to Tuesday's key. The story moved very slowly and did not hold my interest well because I was not particularly interested in any of the characters. Arthur has no special abilities that would make me like his character. He is just a boring, normal boy who follows orders from the Atlas. Suzy Blue is an annoying character with very little appeal, and all of the members of the House are like robots with no real impact on the novel. I couldn't finish the book because of the monotony and I don't recommend it to anyone who likes a fast-paced book."
162075,1,zipper broke before we could fill it.,Junk. The zipper broke before we could fill the bag completely. I have owned s landscaping company for ten years and these seemed like a great watering aid for those without irrigation but its just a waste.
162120,1,Quite possibly the worst book I've ever read,"What a terrible waste of paper. After about 100 pages, I kept trying to force myself to read a few more just to finish the book. At 350 pages (of the 500 page book), I quite literally said ""life is too short to waste on this garbage"" and threw the book away."
162169,1,Not so great,"This will be going back didn't realize I had over paid for it so much, bought it for my 9 yr old and he was so unhappy and said it was a old version. My older son said I paid way to much for it and could have gotten one much cheaper through Game Stop, what did I know. I am sending it back hard to find games too."
162226,1,Waste of time,"Yes, I'm one of those elitist crafters who wouldn't be seen dead in an unfinished converted jeans skirt with a crooked hem - how cute! Yes, I'm one of those superior types who doesn't want to waste time - how did another reviewer put it? - mindlessly whiling away a rainy day! Maybe some people are lucky enough to have time to mindless while away. Mine is precious, and I want lovely stuff to come out of it.So this book is yet another for the charity pile. Lots of mostly useless dust collectors. Can't even say it pushes recycling as so much of the stuff has to be bought. I wish I could find ONE project I'd like to make in it - at least in Alternacrafts, which is almost on the same level, I did. Problem is, I like things that are useful, attractive, and well finished. I like to recycle and reuse, and do it all the time - but I don't like to make trashy stuff. Oh well."
162239,1,Don't buy it!,"This MP3 player is the bottom of the line. 2 AA (not AAA like toys r us says) batteries last about one hour, and the maximum volume is about 1/4 the maximum volume on a normal cd player. In order to put more than two songs on it, you have to decrease the bitrate to 32kbps (which means the songs sound like they're coming from a bad AM radio). I'm returning mine to the store today!The bottom line is: If you're going to buy an MP3 player, don't get this one. ... The KBGear JAMP3 Player is a total waste of money, Don't buy it!"
162246,1,for rabid intellectuals only,"This book is an incredibly elitist rabid intellectual rant, highly opinionated and abstract that were it written by a student it would be judged to be incoherent.Do you know what diegesis means?...becuase i couldn't find it even in a good dictionary.and that's just the tip of the iceberg. As an attempt to communicate it is lousy except to about 10 people in the world who might describe it as a rattling good read...name dropping practically every sentence,showing off prodigious intellectual prowess at the expense of communication.Are you a lecturer? Do you want to ruin the lives of your students? Then tell them to read this."

162252,1,Recurrent frustrations,"The bobbin holder is a nightmare. Often won't successfully rotate the thread far enough, or the machine pops out the bobbin holder."
162268,1,Surprisingly bad,"This book is good for improving your speed reading skills as you scan the trite ""story"" for any useful nuggets. About 15% of the verbiage has anything to do with options. The rest is sophomoric prose representing the characters' acquisition of the keys to consistent 28% returns from the professor, which you too can obtain buy purchasing his simple software.The testimonials on the back suggesting the text could serve as an ""academic supplement to hedging financial instruments"" are especially ludicrous."
162278,1,SOUND IS REALLY BAD!,"Theres three things wrong with this thing.(1) It's not loud at all, u will need a amp to listen to this player.(2) Only 16MB, I could only put up to 8 songs on it.(3) IT EATS YOUR BATTERIES UP IN AN HOUR. (Get rechargeable batteries)But the main thing is the sound, too low, u will not have a good time with this. But for $40 retail, U cant ask for much."
162300,1,Scratched,It had more scratches than were admitted to in the description I read. I will order more cautiously in the future.

However, if you are a die hard NIN fan then i guess this album is worth having, but god, look at the price! For an interview disc? if you really need this title wait about a month and download it from napster."
162306,1,Rubbermaid sink divider mat,I bought this item and within 3 weeks I threw it away because it just doesnt' stick to the mat. I even tried rubbing alcohol to get the suction to stick better. If you are looking for a good scrubber holder just stick to the cheap ones. They stick better.
162349,1,Hard to understand writing style,"The book is comprehensive and explains things in detail however, the writing style is very hard to understand. I found it hard to stay awake while trying to decipher the many, many run-on sentences. In order to understand what this author was trying to say, I finally had to supplement this book with the Java tutorial found on Sun's website."
162370,1,Greatly Dissappointed,"Hello EveryoneI've just finished reading DC Vs Marvel I and I have to be honest, It totally sucked and made zero sense. The entire story was idiotic and boring to the tee. I mean the fights between the two different superhero factions were boring especially Wonder Women Vs Storm. I have already forgotten if Thor fought anyone in this issue. When I was a kid certain comics were so great that I must have spent countless of hours re-reading each issue, this comic I already tossed it in the closet. What were they thinking? Even the Characters looked different, Batman and Captain America looked off... What a shame, I hope they pay closer attention if they ever decide to make a Superhero movie involving both comics."
162378,1,Saved a whopping three dollars,"After tax, which I don't pay when registering on the phone, I saved three dollars and change. Then I had to jump through the hoops of registering online. Definitely not worth the time involved in ordering, waiting for shipment, etc."
162439,1,"I""M AMAZED AT ALL THE 5 STAR REVIEWS","Someone needs to be objective here. I've got about 2000 cd's in mostly the guitar and blues genre and this guy is at best ordinary. Like a TINSLEY ELLIS without most of the chops / absolutely no songs and an average voice.He talks about 40 years of playing the guitar. Hell , this would not be classed good playing for a student with 12 month experience. His tone is painful at times and if you think I'm harsh, have a listen to TINSLEY ELLIS. There are some similarities, but one is excellent and one isn't.I can see that a fully drunk crowd around 2 in the morning will really get down to this, but you have to be kiding when you call this guy a BLUES MASTER. There must be at least a few hundred players with more legit claims to that title.I've got 3 of BRYAN LEE's cds and played them continuously for a couple of weeks as I thought I was missing something as this style of blues is normaly right up my alley ( see my reviews ), but it did not get any better."
162470,1,Extemely noisy,"After reading positive reviews, I orderd this hairdyer. I had a Braun hairdryer that worked like a charm for almost a decade which now needs replacement. I dont want an Ionic Hair Dryer since it leaves my thick hair flat.I was disappointed as soon as I took this out of the box, it's heavier than the Braun I had (too bad they dont sell any hair dryers in the US anymore) and the shape was kind of long. When I turned it on, I found the dryer even in the lowest setting to be deafeningly loud and the air speed wasn't very good. You have to put it on medium of high to even get the temperature to be very warm but the noise was unbearably loud for me.I'm hoping I havea defective dryer and I'm looking forward to trying the replacement Amazon agreed to send me."
162486,1,"Stopped working about 10 day and yanks hairs out, not cut them","Do not buy this. It yanks you hair out rather than cut them. Its flimsy and cheap as hell, made in china for probably less than $3 or $4. It also stopped working for no reason whatsoever after about 10 days without ever being dropped or anything.DO NOT BUY THIS."
162515,1,bad design or they did it in purposr,"I got it and put it together right the way. After about one minute of playing, the car won't turn at all, and there is a cracking sound fron the front part of the car gear box. It took me 10 mintues to open the from gear box and found a broken gear. The gear looks not normal at all (it has cut out a circle sharp and there is only 1 mm width of connecting material hold the inner and outer part of the gear). And on the 1 mm width, here even a small concave hole which weaken the gear further. No wonder it only ran for 1 minute.And I got it form the closing Toysrus store, And all sale were final. No exchange, no refund. And it's Toysrus's own brand Geoffery Inc. DO NOT buy this toy at all. Save you money buy something else."
162536,1,Very Limited Application,"I thought I would really like this tape, but find I hardly ever use it. For general use, a conventional metal tape measure works better and faster, as you can often work one-handed and there are things you simply can't do with the Flatback. The Flatback tape ALWAYS requires two hands to use, and I don't need the write-on capability. The single thing the Flatback does best is measure around curves. In response to the reviewers that wrote about accuracy, for most purposes the absolute accuracy of a tape doesn't matter - what does matter is using the same tape for measuring that you do for, say, cutting. When I need real precision I reach for a steel rule anyway. You can also compare tapes and rules so you know the error margins within which you are working."
162560,1,Depressing!,"I am a dedicated anglophile, so I thought I would enjoy reading this book. Boy was I wrong. As the above reviewer said, all Bryson does is complain. The whole book is about how things have gone from bad to intolerable since 1973. I read about 5 chapters before I went into a blue funk about my upcoming trip to Great Britain. The book is going back!"
162571,1,Tough to assemble/ poor customer service,"I would love to be able to say how much daughter loves riding her new bicycle, but we still cannot get it assembled after several tries and one try by a neighbor. Not only that, but our phone call to Huffy customer service to request a replacement of a small metal shaft that holds the pedal on was a horrible experience. They were very rude and reluctant to be helpful. Hopefully, we will eventually get this part and get going."
162606,1,Two lefts don't make a right but three do!,"You should only think of things that are pure, praiseworthy, superior, and appropriate, things that are unwholesome, and disgraceful are not to be meditated on. A book that would probably fit the decryption of unwholesome or disgraceful would be The Face On The Milk Carton by Caroline Cooney one of the most frequently challenged books from 1990-1999 according to the American Library Assoc. I think that it should be banned, because in the book there is a lot of inappropriate thing such as curse words, inappropriate kissing, putting down of religions est. If a younger child was to read this book it could make them wonder about things that are not true or are not appropriate for there age group. Censorship is a strong word, but it does mean that children should be exposed to only things that are pure, praiseworthy, and proper, not filling their heads with disgraceful and inappropriate words and situations."
162675,1,Preview First,"What's the point of covering a song unless you have a better idea... or at least a different idea. Being a long time RLJ fan, I bought this without previewing it, expecting interesting interpretations at least. My mistake. Here, RLJ offers no new insights or any real reason to re-do these numbers other than to make a buck. In the past, her voice was a vehicle for her inspired melodies and arrangements. This time her voice, which is a cross between Tom Waits and Shirley Temple with a cold, is front and center. After song 7, I couldn't take it anymore. I recommend previewing the album before purchasing."
162711,1,silly singer eeyore,"I would most definitely never buy from this seller again. I have collected eeyore for over 25 years. Looks like it was used and not new; blue ""hair"" various lengths in different places, like someone had pulled on it. The Disney box it was wired into says comes with 3 AA batteries; true it did not say they worked - which is a sign that the seller didn't check this first and replace with new batteries or they had been worn out by use. It does sort of ""sing"" but again it sounds used. There was absolutely no bubble pillow wrapping to protect it; just because it was wired into the Disney box doesn't mean it was protected from being tossed around during shipping, especially with the batteries/battery pack."
162834,1,What a dissapointment,"This camera appeared to be the perfect one for what I needed; an easy to use camera with a zoom. The day after I received it I used the zoom and it retracted one time. The next time it would not retract and the zoom is completely jammed. This in itself is not so bad, annoying and inconvenient yes, but not a total disaster. There is probably a simple fix for this. I thought I could just call the manufacturer and get some help. Fat chance of that! They do not even give a phone number for customer service. I had to send an email and was told I would get a reply in writing within 3 days. I just got a reply (a form email letter)that tells me to ship the camera back to them at my expense. Next time I will research the customer service as well as the item I purchase."
162843,1,THIS IS NOT DRY KILL LOGIC,This is not dry kill logic's older band. I have purchased this cd and I made a mistake. All the reviews on here say its dry kill logic BUT IT IS NOT.
162891,1,wire cracked within 1 month,"The replacement was not as good as the original which had lasted a long long time until it was abused. But having learned my lesson in what abuse not to subject the battery pack, I was much more careful with this one, and within 1 month the wire plastic coating cracked. Will see what I can do to complain. But for a little more than I payed for the battery pack, I could have gotten a new video player."
162959,1,Rocking Crock,"I purchased the crock-pot on sale at a local store and when it was opened on Christmas morning and set the crock into the heating unit it rocked. The lid fit well, but the crock rocked no matter which way it was placed in the heating unit. When I went to exchange the item, the store did not have any in stock, nor did any other store in the area. Now I loose the $5 I saved on the sale or hope a store receives a shipment in soon."
163006,1,"Too heavy for my fine, straight hair","I got a little sample tube of this with their shampoo/conditioner (which I love!). Gave it a try and had to wash it out. I only used a pea sized drop (I have a chin length bob) and it made my hair greasy. I think this product is just too heavy for my fine, straight hair. Think my niece, who has thick, curly hair, will enjoy it, though!"
163016,1,Boring..........,"This album in my opinion is a waiste of time. Coko, the group's alto, shines as usually,but the poor selection of tracks don't fit there profile. There are a few good moments.... the Missy Elliot produced ""Can We"", ""Lose Myself"", ""Lose my Cool"" and two inspiring ballads, ""rain"" and ""when u cry"", but the album lacks with swv's characters."
163043,1,Not the best of what's around,"One must realize that while reviewing, I am putting this cd on par with the other DMB live albums. I will come out and say it, this album is simply not the best. I base this on the sole reason that all live albums should be based upon: 1)this album does not defer so much from the regular studio albums, 2) the basic sound quality is not fantastic, and 3) the two other live albums blow this one in the wind. So, if you are thinking of purchasing a live DMB album, get either the soothing Luther College, or the fantastic Listener Support. If you have both of those . . . well, I'm such a DMB fan that I have to say get this one too."
163191,1,cluttered pages,Too much print without much being said. I found this book confusing & down right boring. to help your clutter problem loose this book in the nearest garbage can.
163317,1,"Fast food TV, aka Bad.","Shows like this are what keep me from getting cable. TV shows are thrown together just like everything else nowadays. They slap them together, put on a snazzy title, and hope they get just enough ratings to warrant the next mediocre show.The first season was 'OK' enough for me to kind of want to watch the second season. I'm 5 episodes in and I'm done.Every episode has parts in it that make laugh at the poor production quality. It's boring, doesn't make sense, and I just don't care about any of the characters.This is the McDonald's extra value menu double-cheeseburger of TV shows. Enjoy."
163367,1,Weird Fit,The shirt seemed cute but when I recieved it I did not like the fit at all. The designs do not stretch with the shirt and the collar is too tight around the neck.
163403,1,"Too complex, difficult to follow!","To complex, not even Matlab oriented as indicated on the back of the book (except for graphics), it might be Ok for Instructors for they will be able to see the matlab files (I guess), but for professionals, get Porat book, it is Matlab oriented and not so confusing. I do not recommend this book for DSP practitioners as my self. The book is full of mathematical expressions without clear explanations plus the format used in the book is very unclear. Overall, a very poor book. Hope next edition will have Matlab files available for everyone and will use another format to clarify the mathematical contents of the book."
163410,1,What a hot mess of a movie....,"'The Hills Eyes II', one of the most pointless and blatantly stupid sequels to come around in some time, is 90 minutes of incompetent film making at its finest. Or worst, however you choose to look at it. While 2006's 'Hills' remake was one of the year's best, and truly frightening, horror films, this sequel takes every spark out of what made that such an accomplishment. Part 2 never gets off the ground, and neither does its mind numbing dialogue. Worst of all, it's not that scary."
163426,1,A poorly organized reference book,"This book simply can not be read cover to cover. If you are looking for a beginners guide to SUSE, don't get this book.If you are looking for a reference book with a lot of good technical information in it, this book isn't for you either. It has a useless index, and the content is scattered crazily throughout.I recommend instead Beginning SUSE Linux, From Novice to Professional. This book is written for Suse 9.1, but is great for a beginner. I have been using Suse for 9 months, and still got a great deal of helpful information from this one.Good luck, and don't give up on Linux, it is great!"
163490,1,The rest of the series?,"I really enjoyed Season 1 but from the look of this we're never going to see other complete seasons released. Why release the best of Seasons 8, 9, & 10 when you've never released the complete seasons? What about complete seasons 2,3,4, etc. Cabana Chat with Rodney Dangerfield? Phil Lamarr's impressions of Michael Jackson, Prince? Little Hassan Taylor's Greatest Hits? Darlene McBride? Vancome Halloween? The ""Wash me"" video parody of Alanis Morissette? ""Lick my baby back behind"" video parody of Britney Spears? The ""Love muffin"" video parody of Mariah Carey? The Bush Cheney rap video parody. The UBS man goes to the video rental shop, etc.? Afropuffs cereal? The early MadTV was a little savage at times but that's what made it funny. I feel it's appropriate to issue the best after you've put out the complete seasons. Of course maybe there were legal problems. Some of the humor was pretty savage! I guess if you can find it in syndication then make your own."
163506,1,Boring and Dull,"I'm just going to say that this movie is horrible. Jennifer Lopez is a joke as an actress (not to mention a singer). My biggest complaint about this movie is not the predictability or even the blatant rip-off of the TRULY best serial killer film of all-time, ""The Silence of The Lambs"", it just sucks! Come on, Lopez entering the mind of a killer to find a victim still in danger? I try not to pick films apart. I realize that many great films share certain characteristics. I don't have to have a message in a movie, or even depth really. As long as I'm being entertained. This film didn't do that. The movie is BORING as well as ALL of the characters. The only credit this movie deserves is for the visual imagery, which reminded me at times of a Marilyn Manson type video. That is the only good thing to be said for this movie. To each his own, but in my opinion this film should only be watched if one is seeking a cure for insomnia."
163572,1,Do not buy this book...,This book is nothing but a hoax...Instead just read the online manual...Your knowledge level of Flash will be the same even after you read this book...Wish to get my money back...
163576,1,Not as good as the original.,"This ink is nowhere near as good as the original. High quality mode is comparable to draft mode from the original ink. The letters aren't as crisp as they should be and looks faded in parts. It also has lots of trouble with thin straight lines which come out squiggly if they are even printed at all. Also takes time to ""warm up"" which means the first 2 pages look absolutely horrendous and the ones after are just simply bad so you'll probably end up throwing some prints away.2 stars because the prints are perfectly legible for my own personal notes, but I can't use this ink for something like a paper that I have to turn in."
163635,1,Miserable failure,"Replaced an equivalent 35W G9 bulb that had lasted 2 years in under-cabinet lighting. Burned out in under a week, down near the root of the evacuated part of the bulb. Won't be buying this brand again."
163674,1,"Good biscuits, not french bread","I bought this case of Gluten-Free Pantry Country French Bread mix because I have not had french bread in a long, long time. I know french bread and this, ladies and gentlemen, is not french bread. If made per the instructions it is a lot more like a loaf of biscuit.The bad part is that it is nothing remotely like french bread. The good part is that if formed right, it makes pretty good biscuits. Really, they are pretty good biscuits. I make drop biscuits and put an egg ring around them to keep them from spreading too much. Then I bake them on a pan (I only make a quarter of the mix at a time...the biscuits do not store well once cooked) and presto, biscuits.Calling it french bread is like calling a cat a dog.Richard"
163677,1,BREATHTAKING in its stupidity,"If this is what the CIA, FBI and Secret Service are like, then heaven help us. Obvious things nearly knocked me over. When looking for Jon's mom (she decided to take a week off to be by herself), did they bother to check w/ the post office to see that she'd stopped her mail? Of course not. And would any agent (especially Erin, who is supposed to be top notch all the way) let Jon and the others (herself included) roam freely, shopping and dining and paying w/ credit cards on the very rock that hides the peace talks? No agent worth his/her credentials would allow such a breach. Such blatant stupdity is, indeed, breathtaking!"
163736,1,IRRELEVANT,"I bought this book on the recommendation somewhere of some agent, in a list of books he said every novelist should have. But I found it irrelevant. Too left-brain for me. The question about writing fiction is this: How do you make it all come together -- the story, the narrative voice, the main character in motion, some kind of meaning, realistic detail, etc. -- to create the magic that is fiction? We want to lose ourselves in an imaginary world. How do you make that happen? I didn't find the answer here."
163793,1,Not good,"This unit came highly recommended on this site, but I gotta say, I have been disappointed and frustrated with its performance. I have to go over a fleck of dirt 3 times or so on a tile floor to get it up. Sometimes the sweeper just pushes a speck along in front of it and I have to chase it down. Our little Black and Decker cyclonic hand vac does a better job. The old Hoover electric broom was excellent and lasted about 30 years. Now I am going to give a corded lightweight Hoover a try."
163805,1,Extremely disappointing,"This sounded like a cool book idea, and I love cabins and log homes, so I ordered it. The photos are very disappointing. The homes are not the quality I expected. The book has a very regional, western look to it, which is a shame considering the fact that interesting and varied log homes can be found from coast to coast. They should have called this WESTERN LOG HOMES."
163852,1,Disappointing,"With technology as progressed as it is in this age, why does a production company release sub standard recordings? The video quality is that of old VCR technology, even saying that is offering more credit than the video is entitled to. The sound is mono. This would be a good video to play on your cell phone screen but play it on a home theatre setup and you will be disappointed. The only redemeaming quality of this three DVD set is the 3rd DVD. Save your money and invest in high quality. After all, that is what a DVD is suppose to be. I enjoy Iron Maiden and very much enjoy Bruce's work but this video project is a let down. I would have loved this video 25 years ago but not in 2007"
163898,1,Another cheap China ripoff,So Mattel thinks their brand name is worth enough to bring back a classic toy.? But they think so little of American consumers they'll try to sell a piece of junk online where you can't see it.My brothers had the original and I wanted to get one for my son.Skip this version. China keeps knocking out cheap junk ripoffs of Classic American products. Don't fall for it.So Mattel Barbies aren't selling and you want to trade on your good name?Make Quality Products and customers will return. Make junk and you'll keep losing customers.UPDATE August 2007O Mattel and do these have lead paint on them too???Make toys in America to American standards for our children.
163939,1,Weak reception,"Like one of the reviewers of a similar product from Koss, I live in Seattle. Maybe we're doomed by our hills, but I've had lots of trouble with static using this radio. I like other aspects of it, especially the programmable buttons, although it is too easy to bump the button that switches the band between AM and FM."
164111,1,I thought Sony would work better!,"I hoped that Sony would deliver a better product even for it's low price but, it didn't... at least not for this one. 1st off, it wasn't ""NEW"", it was ""LIKE NEW"". The mic had clearly been used before. And it started off ok, then the quality of the sound declined to bad at best. The signal cuts in and out for live and studio recording. And when it does stay somewhat ""steady"" it fades from strong to weak. Avoid."
164180,1,disappointed,"I was highly disappointed by the lackluster color of these opals. They look more like white moonstones! They are a nice size, but they have very little ""sparkle."""
164226,1,Walt Diesny spinning in his grave!!!!!,"In the begging, all Diesny had has a little mouse on a sail boat and people loved. It was called ""creativedy"", somthing Diesney lost when Walt Diesny died. There is no creativedy in this garbage. All it is are pirates running aroung killing each other.I can give this some credit for the action, but there is really no plot to this film. Johnny Deep is the only one who can act in this film. It's about pirates looking for gold so they can break a curse. Thats somthing a nine year old can come up with. The days Diesny had good idea's are long gone. This film is poorly(and I do mean poorly)based on a cool ride at Disney world. Not worth it."
164254,1,"well, at least it was only $4","I bought this disk as it was an Amazon recommendation after purchasing another disk.Such wonderful music, but such a questionable chorus. The primary problem is a vibrato in the tenor section that is beautifully appropriate for Pucinni but essentially ruins these performances. It's a shame as there is some good work happening in the direction, but overall, the performance never quite gets better than a good church choir."
164263,1,REALLY BAD,This camera is horabile you have to be in bright areas it takes like five minutes to take the pictureBUYER'S SHOULDN'T BUY
164268,1,"My order was canceled, what should I review, bad service?","My order was cancelled after I was told it was shipped. I received a full refund, but I needed the switch not the money. I am still looking for another provider.However this is a great product, I use one at my office."
164278,1,What a Lemon,This is a true lemon.It does not hold the cold for more 10 minutes.It very clumsy do deal with.Luiz
164287,1,Dang it!!!,Was hoping for a smooth upgrade from Windows 2000 to XP Pro.Didn't happen. FYI - always back up before monkeying withupgrades!What a pain. I hope the OS works better than the upgrade process.
164323,1,worn out,"Bass has vibration that cannot be fixed. Speakers are lighter than expected and sound is sort of ""tinny"". I have a set of AL stereo speakers with bass that are probably 12 years old now and still sound great. Just wanted to add a rear pair. Will keep using my old ones."
164334,1,DeLonghi DC514T,"Had this coffee maker for 2 1/2 months when the pot started to leak all over the counter when you pour a cup of coffee. Ive been waiting for 3 months for a replacement to arrive they claim its back ordered. Its on a slow boat from China. This coffee maker is JUNK!! it leaks all over the counter, the pot leaks when you pour a cup of coffee, and their customer service department sucks just as bad. I will NEVER buy another product with a DeLonghi name on it!!"
164339,1,Dull,I tried and tried to read this story but it's too slow. Not very gripping. And it came as a recommendation from a great reader!
164345,1,Inadequate product description,"This modem fits only computers with an ISA slot although most newer computers have PCI slots, not ISA slots. Nowhere in the product description or technical details does it mention this fact."
164376,1,can I give less than a star?,"I agree with the other people posting, this is absurd. Warner Brothers is once again trotting out a sub par box set, peppered with DVDs and a useless UltraViolet set (ultravoilet is a slap in the face to people who spend hard earned money to purchase films). Don't buy this, you'll receive it and a few months later they'll offer up something new, with maybe 20 extra minutes of new content and then the merry dance will continue.Shame on your Warner Brothers."
164451,1,Inferior product,I received this product as a gift. The playback quality is poor. I found the instructions did not cover the complete operation of the product.. Operation life using a battery is short. I would have returned the product had it been purchased locally.
164492,1,Sick and disturbing movie,"A waste of internet bandwidth, and Amazon web storage space. Like watching turd dry. Not even worth a 20-word review.Zero stars."
164521,1,Windoze only,"OpenGL is available on a multitude of platforms.This book is constrained on Microsoft Windowsprogramming. It should at least warn about iton the cover. The book is also about DirectXprogramming. If you program DirectX, you couldas well do the graphics with DirectX.Anyway, the book is comprehensible and easy to understand."
164572,1,Embarrassing,"The other reviewer may be right that this will be a treat to Mark Harmon fans, but what about us others?1. The hero, created by novelist Tom Sandford: A detective (at this stage, a deputy commissioner) who is not only superclever and always gets the bad guys, he is also super-rich and super-attractive to women, more specifically the young and beautiful ones. Very, creative, hats off Mr Sandford !2. The actor for this exciting character. Aging male actor with no noticeable acting skills, looking more ready for slippers and a glass of wine in front of the fireplace than a police ""thriller"". Casting crew showing themselves as clever as the creator of the hero himself.3. Lame and contrived plot. Even the bad guys are beautiful young women in love with the cop hero.On the plus side: Nice clear HD-photography. The youhtful assassin, who you keep hoping will double-tap hero Davenport through the forehead and ride off into the sunset. So maybe something for YOU, at least if you're not over 13 ?"
164809,1,"Okay, but not great","I've had other ergonomic keyboards before from Adesso and really enjoyed them. This keyboard however is flat, which is not at all what I wanted. The function key support is alright, but sometimes malfunctions. As has been noted previously, the 6 key is on the wrong side of the keyboard. The software interface for the keyboard is patchy at best and does not always work well. The USB ports on the keyboard work okay as long as you're not plugging in external storage devices; for some reason, the devices have a nasty habit of disappearing from the desktop. About all that can be said is buyer beware, this may not be exactly what you think."
164810,1,don't bother,"Buying this keyboard was a mistake. Yes, the keypads are separated, but flat isn't great if your wrists really need ergonomic. More annoying is the poor quality--one of the keys doesn't have a spring, meaning you lose quite a few letters while typing."
164815,1,Doesn't display 16:9 content in correct ratios,"I'm disappointed with this TV. The only way to see the entire picture from a 16:9 HD source is in the 4:3 mode, which compresses the 16:9 picture from the sides to fill the 4:3 screen. There is no option for a letterbox picture (so people don't look ridiculously fat or skinny).I called Magnavox and they confirmed that this is the correct functioning of the television. Not exactly HD, then, is it?"
164828,1,Falls short on what it could have been.,"I had high hopes for this book. I do believe in primal leadership, that there is a real, biological basis to what does and doesn't work in leadership. Basically leadership is going from an art to a science, and it's this biologically based approach which will get us there.The problem with this book is that it's needlessly fluffy. There are lots of ""case studies"" with quite frankly poor science in them. I got discouraged to see the text stay so high level, and make grand statements without backing them up.What I was left with was a number of ""you should do this"" statements, but without enough specifics on why or how to be useful. It's too bad because the concept of primal leadership is great. For some reason Goleman didn't deliver.Where to go? Maybe check out ""Working with Emotional Intelligence"" by Goleman, which is pretty good."
164886,1,Wonderful embellishments,Wonderful storytelling embellishing a few well known facts. No new material. More questions arise as a result of this book than are answered.
164904,1,Doesn't work with Audi,"From all of the reviews of this product, I thought I was getting the top-of-line scanner that would work with any vehicle. I have US-made, Asian-made, and German-made cars. From what I can tell, it does not work with my 1998 Audi A4. I have tried different connection combinations, vehicle key positions, standing on my head, etc with no luck. I will be returning it to Amazon tomorrow. But,...From what I can tell, this does seem to be a very nice unit if it will work with your vehicle. It has all of the features that I was looking for. I just need one that will work with my Audi."
164959,1,You blew it Stephen King,"I was totally dissappointed with this book. I expected a book to read-I watched the series, loved it. I wanted to read a BOOK, not a screenplay. Write a book-leave the television scripts out of your library. very dissappointed"
164975,1,Very nice but unreliable coffeemaker,"I purchased my third DCC-2000 in July 2009. It just quit working in February 2010. The previous two coffeemakers started leaking after about a year. They couldn't hold their water.Pros:Makes good coffeeKeeps coffee warm for 2 hours without burning itMakes 12 cups (most CMs make 8 or 10)Very easy to cleanNo carafe to clean or break.Hey, it's EASY to fill with a pitcher. If you can't afford a pitcher, use the holding container, it was designed to fill the reservoir.Looks nice, not cheap.Drip tray is removable to be washed.Easy to read the water level.Three year warranty (register your product, keep your receipt!)Cons:Apparently very prone to leaking, either from the reservoir or the dispenser. All three have Valdeezed at some point, making an overnight setup kind of risky.This one just quit.Use the extra large Bunn paper filters, if you use paper. Otherwise, you may get grounds in the coffee depending on how fine your grind is."
164983,1,Broken again? did not last 8 months,"Cuisinart you got us again! This model we purchased after the constant problems we had with a different Cuisinart model. Well I thought this one would last longer...wrong! These people cannot make a decent coffee maker, save yourself the aggravation and get a different brand.Cuisinart,You might want to consider firing your entire design staff."
165028,1,More like ice-soup,I expected more from cuisinart. I followed the instructions and used the recipe that came with the unit and it never became more than ice-soup. I am taking this back to Williams-Sanoma and will start looking for one that actually makes ice-cream.
165144,1,This sucks!,"This doesn't even deserve a star it's so bad. I have been a Rod Stewart fan since the beginning and this is the worst cd I've ever heard. First off, two of the songs are NOT Rod Stewart, I have no clue who they are but they are NOT him. The rest of the songs sound like he is singing into a garbage can. It sounds like someone recorded this off the radio using a kids tape recorder. Even the cover looks fake. It isn't like a normal cd would be, it's printed off a computer with no info on the inside at all. It looks like a bootleg copy that someone recorded themselves."
165243,1,Bad Product Update,"Zico used to be my coconut water of choice. When I first saw the new packaging I was excited that it would be easier to close and store. I was shocked when I tasted it - it is NOT the same product! The taste really turned me off. I've since switched to O.N.E. coconut water.I also determined that the new bottle size is too big of a serving. I like to drink coconut water before going to the gym because I've found it helps with endurance. It is not as convenient for me to carry the larger (by about 3 oz.) bottle, especially since I can't finish the entire thing in one sitting."
165311,1,Wrong color needs to be exchanged,"Not much to say, except that the wrong color was shipped. When I receive the correct color and install it, then I will write a better review based on craftsmanship, ease of install, and condition upon arrival. Where's my mint green shower base?"
165406,1,where are my cheap sunglasses,the glasses are taking forever! they are already about a week late so...I am just going to buy a good pair of sunglasses because they will probably get here before these sunglasses do if they even get here..
165430,1,so-so,"Not that great, lots of info, most of which I already know. I wish there were more about the symptoms of menopause, which there are, but I needed more information. It's good because it recommends way to get through menopause without taking hormone replacement therapy, which I firmly believe causes breast cancer. But it was padded with pretty basic information that wasn't that innovative."
165431,1,"Overpriced, but good information","When I bought this book, it was listed at $120. I was very pleased at the information inside, as it answered many questions that I had about Taoist philosophy and religion. The only problem I have is that after I purchased the book and took it out of its packaging, I noticed a sticker on the back that listed it at $20. I feel like that is the true worth of this book. I only give it two stars because even though I feel that I payed way too much for the item, the book itself had very good information to get one started on their research of Taoism and gives one a better understanding of the religious side of Taoism. So, if you feel that the book is worth that much, go ahead and make the purchase. It is only my opinion that the $20 sticker I found on the back of the book is how much the book is really worth."
165549,1,bad birthday gift,"We have bought the toy at Toys-R-Us local store as a birthday gift. Imagine kid's disappointment when it turned out that the remotes/motors don't work. Exchanged the toy same day. Both remotes and motors seemed to work fine. Next day one crab's left motor got weak and inadequate to the right one. Most likely we will return the toy and buy something else. LEGO, don't save on QA."
165598,1,awful,"please stay far away from this dull,boring 80's pop album.not recommended to fans who like good music like led zeppelin and the doors.minus ten stars."
165599,1,He went there alone,"Some people can take me with them into their self absorbed, depressed indulgences, having spent most of my twenties in that space myself (and occasionally still) However, Howe Gelbs' Hisser is too self indulgent and lacking in musical originality to allow me to do more than ask ""Why, Howe?"""
165602,1,Save the Packaging--You Will Need It...,"It looks like I am going to have to return this one too...making it the third time in about 6 or 8 months. The problem happened all three times on reloading. I have no idea what happened or why, I've reloaded successfully several times, but with each stapler, this little black metal piece attached to the spring gets freed---it is apparently not fixable. While I too love them, here we go again...it's getting old now. I'm not sure if they are made to be disposable, but it certainly is not priced as a disposable. I hope they redesign it into something more durable as that's about the only way I would try again. Find something more durable...odds are you will be returning this if you buy it."
165672,1,Marlone Star is sexier in a photograph than he was in this crap film.,"I really love movies that are good because they are bad but, this is simply a bad film all around. The actors seemed too into themselves to even act poorly. The dialog was not cheesy or outrageous enough. The lines were not delivered in an extreme or zany way. If I'm watching an action film like ""Transformers"", then I'm not expecting great acting, but I can at least hope the action scenes are good(not saying that's what I got). This is how bad films that are good for being bad should be rated. I really only thought this film would be good because I thought Marlone Star would have some sexy scenes it it. I was honestly expecting the sex scenes to be better than the plot, but this was not like one of Bruce LaBruce's earlier films. And even his films have become pointless. There's no point in expecting good erotic sex, or anything else."
165714,1,"Boring, a big disappointment","I found this new release incredibly disappointing. I wish I had listened to as many of the selections as I could have before I bought it. Instead, I rushed out and bought it on the first day of release. Can I get my money back? All the arrangements sound the same and I was bored by the third cut. And, I had to delete it from my itunes library in case it ended up on my shuffle!"
165749,1,Experimental music,"I would call this type of music 'experimental'. There's some complexity to the music, but not enough to control the listener's interest in any aggressive way. Don't get me wrong, I like this stage in Miles' career, but I would suggest that you buy his ""Live at the Fillmore"" sets over this package."
165794,1,Bataan Death March,"This is a grim, grim book. Smith presents a scenario where it's impossible for humans to win. Had he granted the people on the mound a few victories before the end, he would have had a much more satisfying novel.As it was, Smith gives us a death march of his characters. The only mystery is which character will die next.As for the title itself, I have deciphered that ""The Ruins"" refer to the characters since no ancient ruins are investigated by the cohort in question.I finished this book today, and it greatly depressed me. On the plus side, I did like ""A Simple Plan."""
165851,1,Lasted 3 Days - Now I have to pay for replacement,This scale stopped working after 3 days. Now Tanita wants me to pay for shipping to get it replaced. I would not recommend Tanita brand.
165861,1,Home Schoolers do NOT use this book,What the heck is going on here? In no way should this book be associated with Home Schooling.
165947,1,Doesn't even work,I only needed 2 small lights to navigate through our kitchen to our bathroom and thought these would be perfect. I was wrong. One of them was dead! It didn't even turn on for a split second. Don't waste your money.
166016,1,One of the Worst (and Funniest) Serials Ever Made,"""The Lost City"" (1935) is a 12-chapter bungle in the jungle. Despite the electrical effects of Kenneth Strickfaden, amateurish acting and inept direction create many unintentional laughs. William ""Stage"" Boyd (who plays the evil ruler Zolok) was reportedly drunk throughout the production and really lets it rip during the final chapter. Ironically, Zolok turned out to be the scandal-ridden actor's most famous role. A guilty pleasure for many serial buffs."
166040,1,Dangerous,"Dangerous, sharp plastic edges, the hole at the front of the boot is too small even for our tiny dwarf hamsters, never placed in their cage because I was afraid they might get hurt. I wouldn't recommend it."

166127,1,Save your money!,"This DVD is of exceedingly poor quality, both visual and sound. The selections, while of note and fame, are unevenly danced and poorly photographed. It is hard to imagine a Nureyev performance being less than wonderful......but.....these are. All in all, i'd have been happier buying a latte and re-watching another DVD."
166191,1,ok,The blade on this product was stiff and I refrain from using it. I do not want to chance scratching my black truck
166207,1,cuisinart automatic grind and brew,"Coffeemaker worked well, but the lid keeps popping up and the machine stops when the lid is up. Sent item back the first time because the lid was broken. Next one was not broken, but won't stay shut. Would not buy a cuisinart again. Bought this for my son and his wife for Christmas. Not happy with it at all. I purchased a Cuisinart 2 yrs ago,also a grind and brew, and it quit working. Will not buy a Cuisinart coffeemaker again."
166239,1,Very serious,"We were looking for something a little more fun than this video. This is a very serious ballet lesson. If that's what you are looking for, you will love it. We were looking for something a little less formal and more fun."
166273,1,makes a good doorstop,"no information is better than bad information. a new emerging field of art deserves a better book than this. it is very misleading to call it ""the encyclopedia"", for many artists are left out who were very well documented at the time of its publication. it doesn't seem that the people who wrote the bios and info were very well informed, or perhaps they were just showing their bias.the editor(s) should not have allowed that to happen. it does have some nice pictures of artists, but the quality of the art leaves alot to be desired. who decided which artists were included? i am surprised that a museum would put their name on such a publication."
166384,1,BLADE IS FALLING APART! TINY PIECE IN FOOD!!!,I HAVE OWNED THIS FOOD PROCESOR AOBUT 1 YEAR. I USE IT ON AN AVERAGE OF ONCE A WEEK. CHOP MEAT AND VEGIES. THE BLADE IS FALLING APART. A TINY PIECE BROKE OFF AND NOW I HAVE TO THROW OUT AN ENTIRE MEAl! VERY DANGEROUS! I AM SWITCHING TO KITCHEN AID.
166522,1,Lenox towels,"These towels are not worth the money, they are really linty, i washed them twice and the lint is still coming off."
166593,1,Waste of money,"We bought 3 pair of these for our Bichon Frise pups to wear when we take them for their nightly walk. They are fine for snow, but not for wet, dirty pavement. Within a week of walking on the pavement every night there were holes in the toes where the fabric (including the lining) had worn through.I recycled the velcro strips from these boots as fasteners for 12 fleece boots that took about an hour to make. The fleece booties are intact after 3 weeks of daily walks."
166609,1,Incorrectly described,"I wish I'd read the previous reviews! I ordered this for $14.99 as a ""bottom of the page special"" and it's going back. It is not two inches thick as described, but 3/4"". What a disappointment! And now I see that the regular price has been changed from $25 to $40. YIKES! Don't bother..."
166647,1,Not one of Nancy's best,"This ""mystery"" isn't really that mysterious. For starters, we know from the beginning of the story who the bad guys are and that makes reading it a lot less interesting than the usual Drew mystery. I mean yes, you can tell who the bad guys are normally by seeing who the rudest and most suspicious looking characters are, but in this one we get the ringleader's name right up front: it's in the title!The only things left for Nancy and her friends to detect are a lot of scientifically naive componants to the bad guy's house, including poisoned portraits and a robot that runs off of ""tapes"" and attacks people. It's also the first Nancy Drew book I ever heard of that kills off the bad guy in the end instead of having the police take him away.Whoops, I spoiled it for you. But don't worry, the book is just as ho-hum when you know what's coming."
166714,1,Powerful but didn't last,"I've had this blender for a little over 6 months, and I use it almost every day to make smoothies and puree food for my daughter. It does a great job overall in both of those departments. However, the gears on the bottom of the jar that attach to the base are plastic and a few of them have already broken off! I bought this blender for the price and because America's Test Kitchen recommended it. I'm happy with the performance, but I need something that's going to withstand being used on a daily basis."
166742,1,disappointing :-(,"I am a Donny Osmond fan (he was great in Joseph), so having to give his latest album this low of a rating is painful.Donny is a wonderful singer, but his voice cannot shine through when it is covered up by the dismal pop-music orchestration. All of the songs (Except the duet with Rosie) are classic showtunes, and deserved a larger (not necessarily full) band or orchestra to back them up--*not* the electronic mishmash that they actually received.Call this the album that could have been...And go listen to Harry Connick's newest album."
166768,1,Why buy this cable?,"I bought this cable to hook up my newly ordered Xbox 360 to my HD TV. But I later found that the 360 comes with a very similar, if not identical, cable. Perhaps one is longer? Perhaps this is an out-dated accessory? Whatever. Check your 360 before ordering this cable, or end up feeling dull and foolish like me."
166791,1,Very Bad Product,"I purchased this shelve and it was delivered to my home busted. It has huge pieces of plastic missing on the sides. I should have kept in mind the reviews I read prior to purchase. Not only that this shelf I paid over forty dollars for and come to find out it is half that price at Walmart!! I was so ripped off! I will probably not be using Amazon again and I will make it well aware that my friends and family know not to.Plano Molding 904 Four-Shelf Utility Shelving, Dark Gray"
166793,1,Sturdy non-functional pile of junk.,I saw one of these knives and just had to have one. should have bought the one with the fixed blade.REtracting this blade is ridiculous.Sure it can be done by working the knob but i cut one piece of drywall and had to loosen it so much to get the blade to move that the knife was ready to pop open. what a joke. Oh and my poor sore thumb from working that big knob!!!
166931,1,"earplugs, please?","They've completely butchered not only a classic Kansas song, but also my all-time favorite Radiohead song. If you can't write your own music, the least you could do is not recreate songs that don't need recreated to begin with. Some things are definitely better untouched.. or unsung in this case."
166941,1,Not a complete waste of time but almost,"First thing I did was to look under the ""Mercury"" entry to check the author's credentials. Not a single reference to the mind or the intellect. Enough said...... a really basic alchemic piece of ""green language"" that had been undecyphered by the author.And the list of errors and crucial missed definitions goes on and on and on."
166961,1,I wouldn't buy them again,"I was so excited to get this product....and I was so disappointed after using it.My issues with it are 1. you have to push it way down your back so the strap doesn't show at your neck. So it doesn't work with v-neck and that type of shirt. 2. After wearing all day, it made my skin raw where the straps were hitting.Definitely would not buy again. And if I had kept the orignal wrapping, I would return them."
167047,1,LCD failed,"A nice unit that I enjoyed using, but after a few months several segments of the LCD failed. I can sort of make out the proper digits so, while it is frustrating, it has not rendered the unit unusable. Had I reviewed this unit before it failed, I would have given it 4 stars. Two stars is the best I can do for a faulty display."
167051,1,Buyer Beware,"This product was very disappointing. The major fragrance is that of old fashion cold cream. The lilac fragrance is intermittent. What the other frangrance is remains undetermined. The cost was beyond outrageous when you factor in the shipping charges. $17.00 is too much for this 8 ounce questionable body cream. This is a ""buyer beware"" review."
167097,1,DON'T BE FOOLED!,"They call it ""200mg"" but in reality it is only 16mg of Resveratrol.This is very misleading.If they are willing to be misleading on their webpage and label, I would wonder about their quality control and contents as well.I won't trust them again."
167136,1,A Defective sales Churner by Design - Don't buy a PIXMA,I've had my Canon Pixma for a couple of years now but an intermitent problem started to crop up that's continually getting worse.Shortly after my warranty ran out my once solid all in one system started having issues related to the ink cartridges. I continually get an error message telling me I have the wrong ink cartdridge in my printer when I know I don't.I've never bought anything but Canon ink cartridges so i KNOW my situation has nothing to do with defective toner.I'm of the opinion that Canon has simply made a product that has a technical glitch and is trying to churn additional sales by offering to repair the item at the owners expense or cross-sell them a refurbished/used system. I won't be buying another Canon Printer again.
167142,1,Scanner and Fax Broke down after 2 years,Don't buy this printer. I bought it for around $360 and after 2 years it is just a piece of junk. Do not buy any Canon's MP830. Not worth the money.
167153,1,Table saw inserts work best when they're flat. . .,"When you fork out the big bucks and get your first ""real"" table saw (in my case a left-tilt x5 Unisaw) you expect everything to be right. Everything seemed to be in alignment out of the crate and not much fussing was necessary before I was making short work of anything that came through the saw. I'm a stickler for tuning everything to square, and every time I thought I had achieved it I would find the occasional out of square cut. Finally after many hours of rechecking and test cuts I found the culprit: the standard Unisaw insert from Delta was not flat. . . During my next trip to the local Woodcraft store I checked out their floor model Unisaw and found the same dip toward the blade that mine had. Though I had wanted to get a zero-clearance insert, it bothered me that I had to get one if I wanted consistent cuts. Not only does the Unisaw come with a ""throw away blade"" but at least some come with a ""throw away insert."" C'mon, Delta!!"
167166,1,Broke the first day,"Our headphone came with the xbox 360, after one month we got xbox live, and plugged in the headphone. Three hours later, SNAP, the headphone is broken and history. My kids enjoyed their 3 hours though."
167175,1,"My son grimaced, then laughed!","It could be that my son has a severe thumb sucking problem. I tried the stuff and it really is horrible! Every time I made the mistake of brushing my lips against my fingers, I had this very bitter aftertaste. However, my son grimaced for the first little while, then went right on sucking. He would suck at daycare and at night! He was so committed and persistent.Finally, we decided that we needed something more potent - the thumb guard. We shuddered as we shoveled out the $80. We hope to receive it in a day or two and will review it shortly.For those of you with children who have a severe thumb sucking problem, I do not recommend this product. However, it may be worth the $10 or so before you upgrade to a more costly option like the thumb guard. For those of you whose children have a problem that mainly just annoys you, then this should knock it right out.Final verdict:It is nasty for sure. It does not work for committed thumb sucking children."
167212,1,Blu-ray rot problems,"While the set played okay when new, I tried to revisit it. The first movie would play after a couple of attempts; the second one never would play at all. I tried another copy of the second movie and it too would not play. Apparently Fox used some shoddy media and they do not last. Very disappointing for an expensive box set."
167296,1,DO NOT BUY THIS,This is just a waste of your money. The games are very cheesy and glorified version of what you see on TV/videos. No educational content...interaction between the software and the child is minimal...I bought Reader Rabbit PreSchool and Alphabet Express along with the DORA 3-pack....these two are very educational as well as entertaining for my 4 year old.
167324,1,This Is A Child Book,"I think this book was a bore for me.It was not a good book.If I was 3 I might like it.This book is not my catagorie of reading.I don't like to read but I read this book because I thought it might be good, but it wasn't."
167328,1,Shahrukh Khan not act,"Boring! This was another disappointment in my Bollywood viewing experience. Since the film folks of Mumbai turn out 3 films a day, it's inevitable that a majority will be uninspired dreck. Once again, Shahrukh Khan demonstrates his minimal acting talents and Rani Mukherjee can do little to rescue this helpless cinematic snoozer. If you're content with pretty colors and not very demanding of much else, including memorable song and dance numbers, then Paheli might amuse you."
167464,1,Eh,Not crazy about the smell but I could have overlooked it if it worked as a conditioner. Does not detangle AT ALL and I'm not really sure it's doing anything for me at all.
167481,1,Read something else if you want to learn about Islam,"Please pick up another book if you're wanting to understand the interactions between Islam and Christianity. There are many good books for understanding about Islam, and other books for those who wish to love Muslims from a Christian perspective. This is neither. It displays poor scholarship and recapitulates classic Western stereotypes of Islam which hearken back to the crusades. I give it two stars because there is some helpful information present on spiritual mapping, but unfortunately to those unfamiliar with Islam and Muslim-Christian dialogue, they will be lead further astray from a true understanding of the Middle East. I would recommendMuslims and Christians on the Emmaus Roadby Dudley Woodberry as a very engaging and informative alternative."
167500,1,"Bad, very bad film",If this is Indy film making - you can have it. GoreGoyles: Mutant Edition - is nothing but trash. The acting was very poor. I'm sorry - there is nothing to say - other than don't wast the two hours it will take to get through this - it is BAD!!!!I am so glad I saw this on netflix and did not waste a nickle on this film - these people should be put in prison for corrupting the art of film making - the sound track - was horrible - you could see the boom and mic in some of the shots. What as waste of time. None of these people will ever get a real acting job - they are just that bad!!!!!!Larry - horror fan. The old time B horror movies are so much better than this junk. P.S. this film gets one star because I can not give it none-yes NONE - it is truly that bad!!!!
167538,1,Idiotic Arguments,"The authors cannot explain why so many men and women were willing to die for the ""historical"" Jesus. People, year after year, do not surrender everything, even themselves, and die for a lie or a cover up. Even if one would like this work to be true, I cannot see how these conspiracy theories can be seen as anything other than infantile and idiotic."
167629,1,Does not work!,I was so hopeful with 4 1/2 stars with over 80 reviews this thing would work. I don't know if I got a defective product or what but the suction cups will not work. They won't stick to the tub at all. With nearly a dozen little suction cups not a single one on it will stick.
167689,1,"Good, but why so Explicit","The Youngblood Brass Band is an excellent band. I like their tight ensemble playing. Their solos are adequate, except for the sousa player, who is fantastic. It is too bad that they feel the need to curse constantly during the tunes. I am not a fan of rap in general, but their early albums were good, because it didn't get in the way of the fine playing too much. I hate to pay so much for one of their rare CDs to have half of the music go in the toilet, because of the language."
167708,1,A waste of good plastic,"I got the switch to work with a Windows 7 computer but not on an XP computer - the USB device was not recognized. After two reinstalls, it still did not work. I downloaded the drivers from the IoGear website and it still did not work. Manual switching didnt work either. I called technical support and was put on hold with elevator music and was constantly informed that they were in business to support me. I was on hold for about half an hour. I then received a recorded message saying that technical support was not available but I could leave a message. I made an inquiry on their 24/7 online support but it was not online at 9 am in the morning. It took 10 hours for tech support to reply back to me via email with a question about the model number. But the model number was included in the original inquiry. I did not feel like wasting anymore time with an unresponsive tech support so back it went."
167758,1,Please get back to basics,"Are you kidding? This is Nils at his worst. I have been a Nils fan for a very long time, and this album is just ""not Nils"". It's like he experimented in something new and it didn't quite work out. He is so much better than this, and he has so much more to offer. I have been waiting for new material for so long (preferably with a full band), and this was really a disappointment. I really hope he gets back to basics soon."

167799,1,Road to Nowhere,"This book contains very little on Pres. McKinley or Pres. Roosevelt, but focuses more on the life and trial of Leon Czolgosz, McKinley's assassin. This might be interesting if there was a story to it. There isn't. Why did Czolgosz kill the President? He was doing his duty, to quote Czolgosz. Wow! That is exciting reading! The majority of this book is psyco-babble trying to understand why a person would kiil the president, or how or why American society changed to create anarchists.There is nothing to analyze here. the heart of man is wicked and these things have and will continue to happen because mankind is fallen and we live in a fallen world.From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? (James 4:1 KJV)"
167869,1,Smoke...........,"I just bought this toaster oven from BJ's yesterday...and thought would do a dry run before cooking anything in it...had to turn it off mid-way as smoke started coming out from the sides.so it is surely going back to the store.it looks good, but not when there is smoke coming out of it."
168027,1,My Poor Grass...,A bigger mistake than the writing of this book was my reading it. I can hardly believe I let my grass go uncut just to make it thru each chapter. If you aren't looking for heroes- or even anyone to like or admire- then this book might serve some need you have. As it turned out- it served no need for me.
168041,1,UNHAPPY CAMPER,BECAUSE THE READER WOULD NOT READ MY MEMORY STICK PRO I HAD TO RETURN THE READER TO LEXAR WHO GACIOUSLY AGREED TO REPLACE THE READER FROM AMAZON WITH A CURRENT PRODUCTION MODEL - ONE THAT WOULD READ MY MEMORY STICK. SO WHILE THE PRICE OF THE READER FROM AMAZON WAS FINE WHEN YOU ADD THE SHIPPING CHARGE TO RETURN IT TO LEXAR THE COST WAS DEFINITELY NO BARGAIN.
168102,1,Sixguns by Keith is the one book on handguns you should own,"Sixguns by KeithThis book is an American classic.If you want a book which tells you all about handguns,this is the book to buy. It is the seminal book abouthunting with a handgun. It also contains sectons aboutselection of a handgun, handloading, trick shooting,long range shooting and the use of handguns as a defensiveweapon.This book is a classic. Some might call it dated, as itwas written before world war two, and updated by the authorin the post world war two era after he gained experiencewith the .44 magnum in the field. It is the most completebook available on handgun hunting and handguns in general.What it does not contain. This book does not cover recentdevelopments in combat handgunnery or silouette shooting.Nonetheless, it is the best book available on the generalsubject of handguns and the use of handguns.If you are only going to buy one book on this subject,this is the book to buy."
168117,1,A Big Waste from the Woodman.,"....eh. i usually enjoy Woody (Manhattan, Hannah and her Sisters, Manhattan Murder Mystery, Mighty Aphrodite), but Allen's writing needs an enema. It's weird, i actually enjoyed the PLOT of this film MORE than the dialogue (which is usually the opposite of past Woody Allen films for me). Problems abound in the film though, most notably Tea Leoni and Woody Allen have ZILCH chemistry (which is paramount to the story), and the ending seems put on fast forward. I did enjoy the light comedic moments alot though (and was surprised at how often i laughed at jokes about blindness), and george hamilton and debra messing are cute in supporting roles...."
168127,1,For beginners only,"I am a very serious trumpet player and thought it would be sweet to have a blue trumpet. I found out that it has a low warranty and is for beginners. I didn't buy it, but I want to let any other serious trumpet players that this would probably not be a very good choice."
168140,1,"Looks like it is simple, but is really CONFUSING!","I bought this map system because it looked easy to use, but instead, it was very confusing.First, all the maps were not on the device. I had to select some from the CD's. Next, I had to keep going back to my PC to make changes.Once I got the right maps loaded, it was slow to give me directions while driving. I guess it is meant to be used at slow speeds. Not very handy if you are in a hurry.One day, I left the charger cable at home (while changing maps at my PC), so I though the battery could hold me for a short trip. Apparently, the battery does not hold the charge long, since it turned off on me. Also, my location started to move off the road!Good for technical wizards, not for regular people."
168195,1,A Grainy Teasing Rip Off,"Every so often people trot out this Barbra Streisand ""porno"" tape. For once and for all IT IS NOT BABS.The footage is a sloppy, grainy black & white mess. The DVD has a bar blocking out any view of genital nudity and...IT IS NOT BABS!The woman is actually a well known Jewish porn actress from the late 70s/early 80s named Tasha Vous.The other notorious film here: the Go-Go's backstage ""porno"" consists of a drunken and drugged out, bleary eyed Belinda Carlisle and a sweaty Kathy Valentine trying unsuccessfully to get some girl fan to give one of their roadies head. She will only jack him off, he can't get hard and all Carlisle does is yack, yack, yack. Carlisle, Valentine or the girl fan don't get naked and really nothing happens.Once again you will not find any hardcore pornography or clear nude shots here."
168196,1,Stop talking!,"I have heard great things about Baron's classes so I was pumped to try this DVD. I made it 10 minutes. The initial poses weren't bad, but he wouldn't stop talking. It was like he loved to hear his own voice and felt like he had to keep a running dialogue of babble. I have nothing against suggestions for improving postures or even encouragement but Baron goes past this and into an annoying territory. I will not be doing this DVD again."
168259,1,"Ultimately, Disappointed in a Shipping Error","Everything seemed to go really well - the order was smooth, the delivery came on time, and, I thought that I had received the movie that I wanted for a Christmas gift. However, when opened, the wrong DVD disc was inside the package. I had planned a movie night to share the classic film and was disappointed to have to cancel it.Now, I am in the process of a returning the item.So far, the company is responding well. I am sure they will ""make good"" on the ""error""; it was just a bit of a let-down. Hopefully, I will either get the correct movie, or, a full refund ."
168279,1,How do you make Madden football boring? Here's how!,"Not only is this game slow and tedious, it inexplicably takes a preposterous amount of time to load each sequence. Your actions are broken down into calendar events (2:00 design new offensive strategy; 3:30 sign free agent cornerback), and each event would take a minimum of 30 seconds, and often longer. This is despite the fact that it was being played on a state-of-the-art gaming computer. The small pleasures in this game (and there are a few) are ruined when you have to wait three minutes of real time until the next event.Definitely not recommended."
168297,1,Review from a 10 year old,"I really enjoyed the book so I was excited to see it was made into a movie. Unfortunately, the movie is not near as good as the book. The movie was confusing at points and sometimes even silly. The book was much better. I'm glad we decided to rent it first."
168323,1,Couldn't deliver,"Seller sold an item they didn't have. They were upfront about it, and reimbursed me, but it seems unprofessional to advertise and sell an item that's not available."
168360,1,CD IS Fine - Download Wasn't,Ocean WavesI thought I was ourchasing an item that could be downloaded directly. I was very disappointed that the download ended up on the Amazon Cloud.
168369,1,Begrudging,"I have never read a book by Fern Michaels, and I have no intentions of reading another book by her!I decided to buy this narrative because the story line grabbed my attention. But, the author failed to deliver a good story.IT'S STUPID!!! I really wish writers would put more time and effort into their projects. There is no way she tried to put her best effort into this story. IT'S TOO STUPID!!!"
168621,1,It should have been better for the money,"I bought a Minnesota Fats Hustler 4-piece cue and it barely fits in. Nylon coating makes it shiny/girlish. It would be better with a shoulder strap instead of a tacky hand strap. It has a small inner pocket, but the zipper is short and it's hard to tuck anything else in."
168654,1,Too little contrast,"I have used several Garmin units and maps with unabashed delight. After recently receiving my Etrex Vista and TOPO Mapsource map I set out into the mountains above Palm Desert. The Vista worked flawlessly but I soon discovered that the TOPO software presented a background gray that is almost identical to the track color, rendering the track almost invisible. In addition the intermediate elevation lines were very faint. Adjusting the contrast did not solve this problem. As soon as I unloaded the TOPO map, the track became clearly visible."
168711,1,"Disappointed with this CD, sorry.....","I listened to the CD all the way through and will soon post it for sale as a used item at Amazon.com, so watch for it there. I was disappointed with the sameness of the sound and the blandness of the production. Where the music could have reached out and grabbed me it seemed to simply sit there lifeless. I found myself thumbing through a magazine as I kept losing patience waiting for something exciting to happen.I have a great many goth and goth-ish CDs in my collection but this one will not be one of them, sorry."
168738,1,Duped,"I enjoy history, especially early Seattle, and I wastaken in by the book. I would never have bought/read itif I had known it was a clever fabrication. I returned thebook and don't recommend it. There are authentic diaries andstories that can enrich one's life and are far more interesting."
168752,1,"What's the point? Foster homes, survival? What's the point??","I'm not against depressing stories, but there must be a point (message or moral) to the story. This story offers no redemption in the end and ON TOP OF that, there is no point! I don't think Astrid becomes a better person for her struggles. Even if a story is depressing, there needs to be something positive that comes out of the story such as a moral or a life lesson. The only thing you think of after this book is ""That poor girl"". Yes, Astrid survived, but I don't think she overcame anything or became a better person. Her experiences hardened her and that's not really a positive message..."
168803,1,could be so much better,"Pros:- surface feels nice- buttons work ok- cool glow effect- easy to carry aroundCons:- no ergonomics and poorly designed. For example, the ""illumination off"" button is located in the lower left corner of the keyboard and occupies valuable realestat instead of the unused top right- the buttons are too small, space bar is difficult to press and easy to miss.- letter are cheaply transfered onto the surface and will weare out easyWould recommend trying it before buying it first.. If I only had the packaging I would not have kept mine.."
168871,1,UNSATISFYING!!!,"The only James Patterson novel I liked is 1st TO DIE. But [not] the rest (2nd Chance, When The Wind Blows, Cradle and All, Violets Are Blue)... The Beach House has a good opening. It will hook you right on with the death of a townie. The revelation of who he actually is kinda ok, though not actually mind-blowing. And the resolution is so implausible. A mock-court hearing? C'mon! And what happened to the Dana character? She was establishied as having an affair with her dad, right? What is her connection with the whole thing? This novel tells me to stop reading James Patterson. Although, I still have a copy of The Three Blind Mice which I bought alongside with The Beach House."
168894,1,Did a Writing 101 student write this book?,"This book is really, really not good. Topping my list of complaints is how thinly the characters are written. One character is not distinguishable from the next. The plot is not well developed and unbelievable. My biggest complaint (and this goes back to the characters) is what a miserable heroine Isabelle is. She radiates dullness and doesn't really do anything. This book really does appear to be the effort of a writing student, and I couldn't help but think, ""How was this book ever published?"" I gave this 2 stars only because it was published, so maybe there's some greatness here that I don't see, and also because Ms. Bloom does appear to catch up a little towards the end of the novel.Bottom line, you will be disappointed."
168944,1,Reads like a movie script for a shoot em up movie.,Story stumbles as the characters stumble through the events in the book. Prose is often appealing but there is no plot development. I do not recommend this book.
168946,1,Horrible Book,"Old Cormac seems to think he doesn't need to conform to the way stories are normally told... this is such a horrible book, it makes my eyes cross... the storyline is tedious and the ending leaves you just angry that you wasted some of your time on earth with this piece of trash.The storyline breaks away from the main character to follow the ramblings of an old man that could have been wrapped up with the phrase ""kids these days!"" He does everything but complain about the music of these young kids.Horrible story... just a mess."
168964,1,DO NOT buy this book!,"This book has absolutely nothing to do with what's on the 70-100 exam. It's over 650 pages of wasted time. I can't think of a single question on that exam the this book helped me answer. I am not exaggerating. Instead go for the Exam Cram book, if you can find it... ISBN 1-57610-378-1."
169020,1,It's a disappointment,"The whole track has a very slow moving, heavily drugged out feeling, definitely NOT their best mix."
169066,1,doesnt work well,the knife blades were not sharp and the switch to turn it on is inconveniently located
169118,1,poor,"Ok, so I've gone to streetbrawls.com and that site offers greater value than this tape. I did not like the tape. In fact, I returned the video in consideration of the poor quality. Shop elseware."
169151,1,not worth one's time,"The book, though contemporary, is a throwback to both the romance novels of the 1980s and historical romances. The girl is virginal and shy, and the rich, wealthy, powerful male comes to care for her, falls in love, and brings the girl out of his shell.The book's somewhat realistic, in that the guy sometimes lashes out, and says incredibly stupid or cruel things. Some readers find this provides a less escapist experience though.Some parts are adorable. The heroine, despite her British heritage, becomes a huge American football expert. More parts are simply dull, or perhaps eyeroll-inducing. The execution is not good enough to rise above the cliches. Examples include the heroine's Cinderella transformation, a case of mistaken identity, and a vamp's attempted seduction of the hero.The book's not that bad, but it's still not worth one's time."
169334,1,good story bad quality tape,"sweet story for pre-teen and teenage girls, but the sound quality was awful. popping, hissing and static throughout the video."
169367,1,"Good design, flimsy glass handle","This product worked well, until about the third time I used it, when the poorly attached glass handle broke off as a result of a very minor knock. Way too fragile for kitchen use."
169423,1,Poor videos choices ruin it,"MTV, or it used to be, one of the best ideas for the TV. Music videos were a great idea for the TV, until MTV made crappy shows, then it went extremly downhill. Now the only shows on MTV that are worthwhile are Pimp My Ride, The Ashlee Simpson Show, and maybe the RR/RW show is aight, but other than that, MTV sucks now considering they play more crappy show like Punk'd, Jack***, and other junk rather than doing what their idea was in the 80's, shows music videos. Anyway, I'm not going to waste my review bashing MTV, I'm going to review the DVD. Well, it's kinda hard to make a DVD of the biggest songs of 1982-2002, and MTV did an ok job on it. Mainly because MTV put on so-so to forgettable videos on the DVD. Some of these videos are also low quality, but, just buy the DVD if you see it for half-price somewhere, but other than that, this DVD is wasting your money."
169429,1,Muga bluba blah blah Gubva (wearing gas mask),"I wanted to like The Veil, but I found it VERY hard to understand what the people in the movie were saying. I tried turning it up but the underlying hiss on the sound was too much. The camera work gave me motion sickness and the grainy B/W picture had a nasty habit of cutting to complete black. At the end I wasn't sure who was whom.....did the bad guy get shot at the ""RV"" point or did he get thrown off the roof. I gave this movie 2 stars only because I liked the overall idea. I think the producers of this film should spent more time on the back story of the characters instead of ""stretch"" shots (such as the 5 minute card game)."
169469,1,Scepter Gas Cans,Don't buy. Never work properly. Spout will go bad within months. Major step backwards. Poured gas back in my 20 year old container and through away.
169484,1,RIP OFF,WOW...you are charging this much for a Paperback that has ONLY 184 pages. This Book LITERALLY sells at the College Bookstores for a whopping $12.25!!!
169514,1,Yawn too,U2 did indeed roar out of the blocks with albums like Boy and October. I miss the energy of songs like I Threw a Brick and the subtleness of the title track to October. It's a long way from their youthful angst and inspiration. This album forged no new ground to my ears. I so prefer lesser known groups like Isotope 217 who deserve even half the attention given to these dinosaurs.
169521,1,Not so great for tough locations,"I suspect the device probably works best on flat surfaces and not corners. I had trouble with the glue not staying with the surface of the car, just popped off after several tries...."
169597,1,Not a complete loss,"There are some very strange interpretations of the origional songs, with the first few tracks being the hardest to tolerate. It gets better, eventually. I agree with another reviewer that the Johnny Cash doing ""I'm on Fire"" is the highlight of the disc."
169625,1,suspicious reviews,"I think some of these reviews are written by people affiliated with the company that sells the product, Touch of Europe."
169656,1,Hopeless,"This scanty little volume barely even begins to get to grips with the complexity of Rosalind Krauss's writing. It gives the impression of something David Carrier knocked off on his vacation, completely lacking in any rigourous engagement with Krauss, and full of vacuous comments like ""Hmm, Rosalind Krauss is often controversial, but she is always interesting!"" Well, thanks for that Professor Carrier, you should really do a lot better than this. Krauss is barely even quoted properly either, for some kind of legal reasons mentioned in the preface. This contributes to the lack of seriousness which characterises this slim and ultimately unhelpful study. And what's more, it costs $90!! You would be completely out of your mind to pay that kind of money for this book."
169677,1,Ugh!,"Being a long-time Dean Koontz fan I was very disappointed with the plodding pace of this book. I've always prided myself on never starting a book I didn't finish--regardless of how bad it was. This may be my first. After reading a third of the book (and forcing myself to do even that, skip-reading and skimming much of the time) it has caught dust on my coffeetable for two weeks. Koontz has always been a very poetic writer, using lots of words to convey simple scenes. In the past this never bothered me. This time it did. As always, his golden retriever character is great--much more interesting than the humans.I hope I can pick this book up and finish it. I also hope it is worth the effort."
169700,1,A lesser Poirot,"This is another of the more recent and generally dreadful Poirots shown originally on A & E and filled with scores of commercials. (The action stops every five minutes after the opening half hour.) The acting, aside from Suchet of course, is especially weak and the story is predictable. Is this really better than watching golf? Either way, you're in danger of falling asleep hours ahead of time."
169738,1,"There's forgiveness, and then there is being a doormat","Just because I am a Christian woman doesn't mean I will open my heart to the man that murdered my husband in cold blood. I might forgive him his tresspasses, and help him turn a new leaf, but the whole idea that it is a good Christian idea for a widow to find love in her heart for the man that killed her husband is appalling. This ranks right up there with those sickos that think if a rapist impregnates his victim, she should marry him. The book starts out strong, but as it progresses the author just really force feeds her own twisted notion of forgiveness on the reader to the point of absurdity. This doesn't qualify as good Christian fiction unless you are one of those people that believe a Christian woman's place in walking behind her husband."
169755,1,Not worth looking for.,I read quite a bit about this action movie especially the car chase. It was said that this car chase was one of the greatest in movie history (including Bullitt). It was unavailable anywhere and I found a used copy at a flea market. This flick is terrible! The car chase is terrible too. How can you have an exciting car chase with boxy 80's cars? I love action movies but this one is weird. I guess that is why they call it To Live And Die In L.A. That explains it all.
169811,1,Not recommended!,You will get good sound from these headphones. But the the wires (from both sides) will break from just normal daily use after about 8 months. Now I am stuck with unrepairable junk. I guess $25 gets you 10 months of headphone use nowadays. Would steer clear of these from now on.
169852,1,Stay in canada,Lucerin Blue is a terrible band. Why don't they stop trying to be the Deftones. I pray for the day that the American board doesn't let them in. They can stop bringing their crap over here.
169869,1,Inferior To The Original,"This is an almost word for word remake of the 1986 film ""Manhunter."" While watching this one I kept asking myself why. Why did someone decide to remake a prefectly good film? This remake adds nothing, in fact it is inferior to Manhunter in many ways. Poor casting is just the beginning of the problem. I never bought Anthony Hopkins as a psycho in any of these in the series. In this one he plays it way over the top in an almost cartoonish manner. Ed Norton does an OK job as Will Graham, but this role could have been done equally well by anyone. Most annoying is Ralph Fiennes as the Tooth Fairy. This guy sleepwalks through the role and is about as authentic as a wooden nickel. The film concludes with a lame ""he's not really dead"" cliche. This was the choice to make it different from Manhunter? Silly. Two stars for the always interesting Harvey Keitel. Skip this one and rent the far superior Manhunter instead."
169870,1,Watch Manhunter Instead,"My biggest complaint with this movie is that Ed Norton is a very pale version of Will Graham, the FBI uber-psychological profiler the character is supposed to be. Norton is weak and whiny and should have never won the role simply because he does not live up to the Will Graham in 'The Red Dragon.' Norton was beefed up more for 'Keeping the Faith' than he was for 'Dragon.' This in and of itself made the movie very lame for me.Other than that this movie was pretty true to the book but I still give the original 'Manhunter' movie 5 stars and two thumbs up."
169933,1,Event Horizon by any other name,"How can people get away by taking a great story, change the venue and consider it original. Isn't that what so many B-grade movies are? Event Horizon - a classic. The best Sci-Fi Horror to date. This a cheap rip-off."
170025,1,"if there were zero stars, I would've chose that","This book was horrible! It was extremely hard to understand and to follow along. It would put me to sleep at night i was so bored with the book. Now, I'm a pretty constant reader and I read all the time, but this was one of the worst books I have ever read. It had too many sexual references to be on a middle school/junior high reading list. All in all, if you were thinking about reading this book, you really shouldn't."
170028,1,No menu!,"This DVD has no menu! As an artist and an art teacher, I purchased it with a genuine interest in enjoying by video the techniques of the Old Masters. The first section starts out with the very basics in shapes and shadows. The artist then moves on to figure drawing. If I want to review a section at a time, the only way to do it is to start at the beginning and fast forward until I hopefully arrive near where I want to be. It is also distracting to see the artist's arm come in front of the camera, plus he rambles. His drawings are well presented, but the video is poorly created."
170062,1,Arrived defective,"the unit arrived broken, I am seeking a credit from the vendor, I have asked for credit, but have yet to get confirmation from the vendor"
170074,1,Not what it pretends to be.,"This may be a great series, but we'll never know with this DVD. When we bought it there was no warning that this would not work in region 1 (one) DVD/Blu-ray players.After trying to watch it, I went back on and found the only place one can see it won't work in our region was in the small print of the ""Product Details"". The ""Format"" just says ""Imported"".All other DVDs/Blu-rays I've looked at buying, this information is right up front and easy to spot. Not in this case.So be warned. Be very careful when buying DVDs/Blu-rays from Amazon.com because they won't take it back if you open it."
170139,1,See a community theater production instead,"I bought this cd wanting to love it. Acquaintence Joe Carney plays Jesus in this horribly-cast abomination of a fun musical. But even he is miscast to the point where I must wonder who auditioned for this show? To choose this lot of no-talents, the casting directors must have been faced with a very bad turnout. These kids can sing to the same extent that Brittney Spears can sing - well enough, but not well enough to be called good by any stretch of the imagination. Nasal voices, over-annunciation, and bad reading (it's not acting, it's reading) make me wish I had bought Godspell 2000 instead."
170167,1,Not for highligted hair,"I follow the intructions, i did it at night. The result was straight greasy hair, i thought that maybe the next day i could use the flat Iron a little bit more and that the hair will absord the product at night but instead, because of the smell i have nightmares of smeling fumes of fire, i woke up and it was the smell of my hair. Next day the grease in my hair look like yellow dandruf, so i just wash my hair and my highlighs turned out orange. Now my throat hurts i think it was the fumes of the product while i was using the flat iron because i felt a bitter taste in my mouth while ironing my hair the night i used the product. In my personal experience i won't recomend this product."
170196,1,Shame On You Columbia!,"Another shameless compilation by columbia to cash in on the up-coming holiday market sales. If anyone at columbia cares at all about one of the most improtant bodies of work in music of any era, start remastering the complete Dylan catalog beginning with his first. His catalog is of such poor quality I still listen to the LPs for anything before Of Mercy. My god, if you can remaster the Bands music (which was lnog overdue and in even worse shape), give bob his due. Quit producing mindless greatest hits complilations and give us whatwe really want: Quality dylan cds. And for those of you out there that think a cursory overall of dylans career is acceptable, find another artist to latch on to."
170209,1,"Nasty, worthless literature","I managed to make it through the first 2 books but goodness, I have no idea how I could make it through this one. And I haven't. And I don't plan to. She's not a bad writer (though her repetitive use of vulgur words makes me cringe every single time), but her imagination is slightly copycat of other series I've read. The only thing she switches up with new material is the fact that the book is 85% sex (outlandish, ridiculous, unrealistic, unappealling, vulgur, overly-descriptive, nonsensical sex between two characters whose development makes absolutely no sense and is literally just centered around how badly they want to have sex with each other). These books have very little storyline aside from sex. It's cheesy, unsexy porn hidden in a fiction novel. If you're a man with wild fantasies of forcing women to bend to your every whim (pun intended), then this may be the series for you."
170276,1,Poor design catches and pinches little fingers,"It's cute, but the rotating barrel on this shape sorter doesn't really add anything to the toy. The blocks fall out of the elephant's trunk instantly (no need to rotate at all), and I threw it away after my 10-month old got her finger painfully stuck in it and had a small bruise. Toys that bite aren't fun! It was also much more difficult to keep track of the blocks because it's almost impossible to store all the blocks in the elephant at once; they fall out of the trunk too easily. We have enjoyed Fisher-Price Brilliant Basics Baby's First Blocks far more than this toy."
170284,1,Lack of a backbone,"As with most extremists, Ann has regretfully ignored the common people and will not supply anyone with her email address. In an online poll of political websites, the only email addresses published were those of the leftist authors who welcome and encourage discussion and debate.The book was horrible, her information on McCarthy ignorant of facts. Ann's research for this book was her life while she was in puberty, clearly clouding her view of the world.Ms. Coulter, what man beat you? Who caused this massive amount of hate and vituperance? How can you continue to slander everyone with a different view?I am genuinly curious how Ms. Coulter feels about Senator John McCain and his centrist views while calling himself a Republican, but unfortunately I can't ask her"
170329,1,Use it to balance the uneven leg of the coffee table,"This book is sad, depressing even to the normal reader, it appeals only to the basest of human fears and mistrust. The work is pure fiction, spawned from a warped interpretation of actual facts.It's appeal lies only to the stauntest of republicans, who in their narrow focus can only see the smallest of truths that lay within the greater picture. Rather like someone looking too closely and not stepping back to view the overall image, the author only states what her narrow vision allows - that all liberals, and thusly, democrats are responsible for everything bad that ever happened in the world.If that is true, explain George Bush and Son.I believe in freedom of speech, and she is allowed her view on the subject, but was it worth the money I paid? No. Her book left me sad. Sad for her, sad for the readers that believe her and sad that someone so narrow minded can live such an untrusting, and obviously unhappy life."
170339,1,Best doorstop I ever bought!,"Once again, in a failed attempt to elavate the political discourse, ann coulter has allowed more hypocrisy to be mass marketed and sold to unsuspecting individuals. She constantly falls victim of every thing(ad hominem arguments, lies, narrowmindedness) she attacks her liberal opponents for. Just flush your 12 bucks down the toilet, it is much more entertaining than reading this book."
170355,1,Not so great,"There are three versions of little women, and this would have to be my least favorite. the only good thing about this movie is Katherine! She gives a great preformance as the charactor, but that's the only thing that keeps this movie at being one star movie apposed to being a complete drag. I probably wouldn't actually choose to watch this moovie again. If you're are looking for a really good version, try the 1949 version with June Allyson,Mary Astor, Janet Leigh, Elizabeth Taylor, Margret O'Brien,and Peter Lawford.Or try the 1994 version with Winona Ryder, Christian Bale, and Gabriel Byrne just to name a few. Both are wonderful, and worth watching again and again."
170372,1,Not as helpful as it looks,"The information provided by this book is limited. It touches several variations of ABS using case studies and market introduction but has done nothing but repeat the securitization process and entities involving the process. It's ok as an intoduction book but far from a good ""handbook"". I would not recommend it for any quants or traders as it tells not much about how to model and hedge ABS's."
170489,1,Look for something else,"This product is not worth the money or time to install it into your car. spend a little more money and buy something else cause when i put it in, my stock sound system sounded way better than this...... and this comes in a package of 2 so dont buy 2 of this item just one."
170547,1,Unimpressed - Terrible sound quality and distortion,"I bought one for my daughter as a Christmas gift. Returned the first one due to poor sound quality and distortion. Amazon was great and shipped another one next day. Unfortunately the sound quality of the second unit was as bad as the first. I do not understand the reviews that this system receives, the only positive id the design. If you keep the volume down there is no noticeable distortion, but if you want to use this device to listen to music at a comfortable sound level than you are wasting your money. Very disappointing product."
170556,1,Wish it were bigger,"I bought this package primarily because I needed a bag for my brother to handcarry my newly online purchased Nikon D40x and some other accessories in the aircraft from L.A. to the Philippines for me. The battery that came with it made the purchase seem even better since I was going to get a spare anyway. I found out, though, that the bag was too small to carry all my stuff: my D40x with an 18-200 VR lens on it, an extra 10-20mm lens, a flash, a hood and a spare battery. I'd bring it along if I were to abbreviate my gear and carry just the basics. However, I purchased a bigger bag a week after this one arrived."
170573,1,"In ""Sea Change"" Beck is floundering","This is Beck's lowest point as a lyric writer and musician.It's clear that the music and tone is about a failed relationship. Beck should have been able to mine this period of his life for some depth like many musicians before him but he can only cough up cliches like ""you're dead to me now"".Beck as a confessional singer/songwriter doesn't cut it. Compare this music to someone like Suzanne Vega's ""Songs in Red and Gray"" from last year which created great poetry out of her failed marriage. Compare this music to early Neil Young, whose song's like ""Heart of Gold"" or ""Don't let it Bring you Down"" cover the same region of the heart.Perhaps in time he may be able to pull some depth out of his private pain, but in this cd he tries for the spirt of Dylan and ends up sounding like Gordon Lightfoot."
170602,1,Not even close to McEwan's other work,"The first McEwan book I read was Atonement, and I was blown away by it. It is one of the best fiction books I have ever read.So I was shocked by how bad The Comfort of Strangers is. It's as if it was a bad adolescent novel McEwan wrote before he found his great voice. The novel has a bit of weird sex and violence, but nothing else of interest at all. Avoid it."
170682,1,Ehhhh,I know nothing about binoculars when I made this purchase for a trip but really had much higher expectations. After not much use they got out of focus and my husband and I just couldn't figure out how to get them to work normally again. Wouldn't recommend.
170700,1,If I wasnt so busy I would return it,"it beautiful,nice color, seems sturdy, but put it in the drawer put silverware in it and with in 3 days three of the dividers are unglued and shifting around. I should return it but who has time to mess with stupid things like this?"
170719,1,Highly Biased,I was highly disappointed with this Luther biography. The author was so blatently biased that it was difficult to know what was accurate. I fear that this depiction of Luther's life may have been missing key elements in order to create a slant. After reading this book I have learned some aspects of Luther's life but am fairly certain they don't paint the full picture of Luther. I am a Protestent yet I was still offended by the derogatory remarks toward the Catholic church. I certainly do not recommend this book.
170749,1,So much fun but broke within 2 weeks,"Oh how my 2 and 4-year-olds loved this toy. And I thought it was just fabulous out of the box but the motor is so noisy, it is quite shocking. This same motor burned out within 2 weeks of buying this. My kids still played with it for the rest of the summer, using a bucket to pour the water up top after the motor broke. They loved it THAT much.If the motor was better, this toy would be such a winner. Step2, if you read this PLEASE fix the motor. We'll buy this again in a heartbeat if you do."
170767,1,So close and yet so far,"I am a die-hard Tom Hanks fan so any book about him and his awesome career belongs in my library. This is a good one, but there are some serious downfalls in it. I am not sure if the authors are just overly impossibly critical or what, but they refuses to see the good side of his work in the early days. I was depressing. If you know anything about actors you know that they are not all overnight success. Why can't they deal with that? I was able to forgive them this type of criticism until I read about Sleepless in Seattle. Where was the editor the day these pages came in? Sam Baldwin's sons name is Jonah, not Joshua!"
170773,1,Don't buy this,"Bought it and returned it the next day. Thought this combo was a good idea especially for travel, one less thing to pack. Quickly realized why this was so bad. First, the plates don't clamp down enough to straighten my hair and Second most importantly how easy it is to BURN yourself. since its also a curling iron it heats up around the whole area. Dont get your fingers too close or get too close trying to straighten the layer closest to your neck.. STAY AWAY FROM CURLING IRON/STRAIGTENER COMBOS!!!"
170799,1,A guide only for those who have lots of money to spend on outfitters,"I immediately returned this book. First, there are very few backpacking/hiking trips described in this book. The range of adventures described is all over the place, with some you might need specific skills in like skiing or climbing. Second, and worse, is that all of the trips described require the use of spending big bucks to hire an outfitter to take care of everything, not exactly and adventure as even the author admits."
170904,1,DISAPPOINTED,"I'm not reviewing the product, because I tried to purchase it from at least 5 vendors advertising it, but NOBODY actually had it to sell. Even though it said ready to ship or in stock--NOPE, not one of them had it. VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!!"
170930,1,Lemon?,"I bought this DVD player about a month ago. It was defective out of the box. It wouldn't play any of my DVD's. The DVD would spin up, spin down, and do that for about 2 minutes and then would display ""Bad Disc"". I promptly returned it to Amazon. I did like the size of the player though, it was nice and compact. The remote looked kind of dated, but hey it was only $37.99 when I bought it, so I can't really complain. It just would've been nice if it could actually play DVD's. Oh and it couldn't play music CD's either. I still think this DVD player is good deal, if you get one that works."
170977,1,this is kinda lame,when I first played it it was fun but when my friend showed(I think that's how you spell it)me the nintendo in the room I thought it was worse than my mairo kart 64. you could buy it BUT don't blame anybody if it turnes out lame.but the fishing's good. (I think the fishing is the only thing that is gooooooooooooooooooooooood
170978,1,Pikachu SUCKS,"So, to most of the GR readers, I'm warning you to stay away. It's the video game equivalent of going to the library and reading a Golden Book instead of Tolstoy. But if you have a really young sibling or even a child of your own who definitely likes Pikachu and can bear all his long term annoyances, there might be a possible Christmas present there."
170993,1,A hair too big,"I have a grant gt steering wheel that's 14"" and this cover starts at 14.5"". I'll have to wait until I get another car to see how it feels."
171004,1,Not a successful satire,"I understand that was intended to be satirical and most definitely *not* a rehash of the philosophy classes most of us have taken in high school or college, but it just didn't work for me. I kept checking to see when it would end, and the minutes ticked far too slowly.It just wasn't funny enough to be a successful satire. I laughed perhaps three times, and they were only chuckles. I'm not an ignorant person. I've studied philosophy (thought of taking it up as a minor in undergrad), so I understood what they were trying to do. But...well...I guess I'm just repeating myself here, so there's not much more I can say other than it wasn't funny enough, and that it didn't work for me.I can see how it worked for other people, and I don't begrudge their appreciation. Everyone has different tastes."
171006,1,Emperor's new clothes,"This is one of the few films I have ever stopped playing without viewing til the end credits. It is self indulgent twaddle that appeals to those who think they must see something in it because other pseudo intellectuals and professional ""critics"" think its cool and edgy. Well, like the kid in the story of the Emperor's new clothes, I deem this film utter garbage and one not worthy of even being in the bargain bin!"
171018,1,"HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE BOOK","This is one of the worst romance novels I have ever read. There was no romance. OMG! The characters were corny, the plot was stupid. Just a whole lot of back and forth mess about a wager. To top it off it was completely boring. The only sex scene in the entire book was at the end on the last 3 pages. I can't believe I read this crap!!!!!!!!"
171047,1,Turns spirituality to psychobabble,Mayers takes the essentially simple sayings of the desert fathers and mothers and goes off on psychological tangents that often seem to have little to do with the sayings themselves. I took little away from the psychological essays that I felt could help to deepen my spirituality. A better way to approach these sayings is to read them as presented by Thomas Merton in The Wisdom of the Desert and let the sayings alone speak as meditations to your heart.
171050,1,interim report,"The Tasco Specialty 200x Tel-Toy is somewhere between a toy and a telescope. ""Surprisingly lightweight,"" my enthusiastic 5-year-old granddaughter said, carrying it to her room. In fact, the tripod is too light; it's unstable. Lack of written instructions for assembly was a major disappointment, given the many parts, interchangeable lenses, etc. I'm still hopeful that trial and error will prove that this toy can function enough like a telescope to satisfy an avidly curious child. Further comments to follow."
171079,1,Should have been a trilogy,"Have these people ever even heard of Batman? Because they sure didn't make a movie about him. If I were you, I would check out some good Batman stuff. Try the first live action movie, which is good, and then try some of the GREAT Batman material. Stuff like The Dark Knight Returns by Frank Miller, The Killing Joke by Alan Moore, and Knightfall so you can see how good a charater Bane really is (Bane is in this movie, but is about as far off base as you can get from his comic character). For a story that should have been a movie, and probably the best one, check out The Long Halloween by Jeph Loeb. One of my favorite Batman stories and a true detective story, because folks..Batman is a detective before a superhero.Batman and Robin is a superhero movie..A really, really bad one."
171094,1,Horrifying,"Let's keep this short and simple. It sucked. George Clooney brought the Batman character to an all-time low. All the cheesy one-liners felt like punches to the face. Obviously a movie that relied too heavily on special effects.To be fair to the actors, the writing and portrayal of everything in this movie didn't give them any room to budge. Batman is NOT a showy character. The lighting in this movie was more so than the Vegas strip and did anybody realize that again there was no bats in the bat cave?I don't even think there's enough money on that credit card Batman takes out to fix the mess this movie ultimately is."
171147,1,intercooler,"So far the product is doing what its meant for. But its very noisy and it discourages me to use it, the other day it even start smelling like it was getting burnt. Be careful."
171183,1,Pretentious nonsense,This is the most over-rated film since Eraserhead - and at least Eraserhead was visually stunning and less then 5 hours long. This video is boring and plotless and visually ugly. If it was in english no one would bother with it. Don't believe the hype.
171244,1,"Estaben is a good self promoter, but thats all","Estaben constantly uses the Segovia name to promote himself. This album like his others do not use any of the Segovia repertoire. This cd (like most of Estaben's) is on a second year classical guitar level. The flamenco is also as bad. The bulerias and solearies are off compass in several places and completly lack any duende. Leaving it flat and lifeless. If you want to hear a real Segovia protege I would suggest listening to John (guitarist) Williams. For traditional flamenco there is Sabicas 'Flamenco Puro' For modern flamenco, Paco deLucia.s 'Siroco'. Don,t waste your money on Flamenco y' Rosas. Its a real stool softener."
171328,1,A Re-Issue Jip,"I hate it when an author re-releases a book--and doesn't own up to it in the press release! (And, for that matter, why doesn't Amazon indicate that it is a re-issue? I know, I know, profit-motive at work again.) This book was first issued as a paperback in the 80's so re-issuing it as a hardcover for quite a bit more $$$ is a real jip. Nora Roberts, who publishes new books faster than I replace pantyhose, should be ashamed of herself!"
171350,1,A chick flick even my wife didn't like,"Ok, it was a little fun to watch the moview industry make fun of itself by setting the film in L.A. and viewing Hollywood from a legal point of view. But that aspect if the film was paper-thin and underdeveloped.Our main characters graduate from an east-coast type college and head to L.A. with ideas if long-love and riches. As they hit rocky times finically, so does their relationship. (...) (Why is it that every romantic comedy uses the same cut-n-paste mold for 30-something married couples? It's so old it's down right boring.)They both act like jerks to each other (but him more then her), they split up, realize they still love each other, and SUPRISE, get back together. However, the get-back-together scene at the end is hollow and empty (although perhaps more realistic) and left my chick-flick loving wife feeling robbed of the romantic moment when they run back into each other's arms, cry and kiss, and ride off into the sunset.In a nut shell, don't bother."
171364,1,not that great,the paint just was not as good as i hoped it would be. if you get this paint marker set you will need Enamel.
171373,1,Buy the used one!!!,"MovieMars has always been a 5 star seller. I think THEY were cheated with the new ones, which do not have the full tape!!!! It ends abruptly with German surrender, and one doesn't see the Russian, nor the edding credits.This might explain why the used are more expensive than the new."
171396,1,Very bouncy,bad balls to play with. very rough and uneven bounce .... i will not even mention this as a 3 star ball
171473,1,Not sure about the theology,I am not sure about his theology. He says that he belives some type of beings other than humans existed on this plant. He also says that the Bible does not discuss this. The Bible only discusses the human race. So why talk it about it at all? Whether another race existed or not shouldn't be the topic. The book did not have the answers I was looking for and was not a help to me.
171553,1,Advice: Don't Buy It!,"I'm in the middle of the second episode and the part with the opening music gone has just ruined the whole mood of the set. I had heard that it was missing, but I said, 'so what'? Well it turned out to be a major ,'so what'.I don't even feel like I'm watching the Bundy's. This is worse than some bootleg. I wish I hadn't bought it, even for only $13.49. Now, I've got to deal with season four, that I ordered, and it's on it's way, ikk!"
171601,1,ouch!!!,"1. pretty2. good sound quality3. good if you sit quietly at your computer and don't move your head.4. if you move your head at all, bend over, go for a walk, etc. the bud will swing away from your ear and possibly fall off. not good."
171615,1,There should be a NO STAR option,"Total waste of money. The tape got a little slack in it and stopped working. The 2 reels are supposed to work in harmony...one pulling the tape as it winds the excess up. If there is even a tiny little slack it stops working. I used this for 1 correction. ONE! It's now in the trash and I will never buy it again. What a poor product. Bic should be embarrassed to even sell this. Waste of $, time, and resources. Boo."
171616,1,Bad quality product.,Trust the reviews: this is not a good product. I just open my order and one of them is defective. Do yourself a favor: don't buy this. Spend a couple of dollars more getting a better quality product and you won't regret.
171662,1,Amateur production.,This is the most amateur production that I have seen regarding Organized Crime and the era of prohibition. It is historically inaccurate and poorly produced.
171745,1,Non-scented Royal Bay Rum,My husband has used this very expensive product for years. This bottle has almost no scent. It smells like pure alcohol. This has never happened when I ordered this product from a small store. $50 literally down the drain!
171796,1,Please stop trying to Buffy-ify Daphne!,"Why do they in the newer versions make Fred dumber (he was the SMARTEST in the original) and Daphne more Buffy-esque? It's just WRONG somehow and out of character to me. Other than that, the plot was bland and blah-- my kids, HUGE Scooby fans, were bored out of their skulls."
171809,1,ATTENTION BUYERS!,"THIS IS NOT A DIFFERENT SCOOBY DOO FILM, IT IS ONLY SCOOBY DOO AND THE WITCH'S GHOST WITH A NEW NAME. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS TITLE UNLESS YOU WANT SCOOBY DOO AND THE WITCH'S GHOST BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE IT!"
171812,1,Spend Your Money on a Better Book than This One,"I do not understand the hype for this book, unless, as another reviewer says, the author purchased the good publicity. Boonville, the book, is: Overwritten, mean-spirited, juvenile and shallow. To write well, one must truly care about one's characters and their plight -- it is, after all, the key to getting the reader to give a damn long enough to finish the book. Anderson ridicules and trivializes, leaving the book without either heart of soul. Even when viewed as satire, Boonville fails quite dismally."
171824,1,not any introductiory book,"While this book introduces koresan characters well, it seems that this book reguires you to already have some knowledge or basis in Korean language. It does not seem like it was intended for self-study. And if you do buy this with intents of self-teaching, it is highly recommended that you purchase the tapes with it to help improve korean language hearing and speech. I only use this book as a language enhancer to my primary teaching source."
171852,1,"Common sense on easy issues, doesn't address hard ones.","I had already found everything in this book via common sense, friends & confidence in myself. After most of what I read, I found myself thinking ""Duh!"" More importantly, the author seems to be breezing through by commenting on the easier aspects of parenting (don't scream at your kids - duh!) and avoiding the tough ones, such as setting and maintaining age-appropriate boundaries -- for that you are told to read other guides. ... there is nothing of substance here."
171858,1,Account Hacked,I did not order this book and have since felt compelled to close my account with Amazon.com. This is unfortunate but necessary.
172128,1,disappointing,"I've had these glasses @ a year and a half and they are starting to get condensation between the dual walls, and in 2 of the glasses - water between the walls. Don't waste your money."
172142,1,Darwin Award Champion!,It looks like the Darwin Award was created specifically for this idiot. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
172163,1,This product is a piece of junk,Air filter shuts off at will. Makes whining noise. Does not clean air well. Customer service is terrible. Do not buy this product.
172176,1,My review,"I cannot review this recent purchase because I have not received it yet. I have paid for it. I would like to have another copy of this book sent to me or for someone to find out where my book is. I need this book very badly and I am disappointed in Amazon.com. I've been a customer for several years but I'm not sure if I will continue because of the sub standard service I am receiving. I have emailed twice the seller of the book that I recently ordered, asking about my pruchase and they have not written me back. Please give me an answer about my book. I needed it last week!Lisarecent purchase : Entre Nous"
172190,1,Was not the best phone I ever owned.,"I purchased this phone also through amazon, forgot who I bought it from, but anyway, the phone I bought was a dud from the start, I could not download any of the features as stated, and what really pead me off, the phone only allows you to talk for 2 hrs, now that is a no-no, because when I get into a conversation I don't need my phone to tell me to hang upkind of reminds me when I was living with my parents, when I called the company, panasonic those people act like I just landed from mars, they did not have an idea of what I was talking about , so I never was able to use the features, I'm in the market for another talking id phone from panasonic, and the reviews I've read seemed to be pretty good, I'm leaningtowards the KXTG9333T, atleast they states you can talk for 5 hours."
172206,1,. SAVE YOUR M0NEY.,"This light peoduced little if any light to my keyboard.LOOKS GREAT AND NIFITY,,NOW IF IT WOULD JUST WORK!!!!THIS ITEM SUCKS THE BIG ONE!"
172217,1,What a waste of money!,Worst tasting sugar free cookie ever!!!!!! Will never buy it or reccomend it ever. Waste of my money! Just plain horrible.
172238,1,WASTE OF GOOD MONEY,I BOUGHT ONE OF THESE. IT LASTED TWO YEARS. HAD THE BATTERY REPLACED BUT THAT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. THREW IT INTO THE DRESSER JUNK DRAWER. HINT: BUY A SEIKO OR TIMEX. THEY KEEP PERFECT TIME JUST LIKE AN OVER PRICED OMEGA.
172248,1,2 hours of my life I will never get back,"I never leave bad reviews, but as a true Phantom fan, I have to say... don't waste your time, don't waste your money. This is nothing morte than a pathetic money grab. Wished I would not have seen this horrible sequel."
172341,1,I hate this album with a passion...,"Although I am sure I will get a lot of hell for this from people, I really truly CAN'T STAND this album! I am a casual fan of Miles' work from the '50s like 'Birth of the Cool' and particularly the classic 'Kind of Blue', but, this???? What is this???? It's like an awful mismash of noise and, if you ask me, it is an insult to traditional jazz. I realize that I am going to get a lot of people's blood pressure rising with this review, but I must speak my opinion on this. This album, and the EVEN WORSE Agharta album take the beautiful art of jazz and try and meld it into something new and ""hip"" that is completely unnecessary. I apologize to all for this review, but I hate this album, and fusion jazz in general.0 of 2,365,788 people found this review helpful."
172368,1,Book Ends Before The Story Does,I was enjoying reading this book chapter by chapter to my daughter as I move her away from picture books and onto more story-driven fare when I discovered that this book does not reach the end and now I will have to buy another book to find out how this one ends. This is just horrible marketing and publishing. The author and publisher should hang their head in shame.
172374,1,Abridged,Although they claim that it has not been abridged I noticed some stuff had been edited out. I read the first edition four or five times before I lost it and can recall details that are missing from this edition.
172495,1,Bad Design for such expensive brakes.,"Not happy at all. I was expecting higher quality for the price I paid. One of the spring wires fell off and was very poorly designed. Basically the wire was fitted around a rivet and peened over, problem was not enought metal was peened over. I had to go the NAPA and get brakes because I already had my tire off and old brakes removed when I found out they were defective. Returned them alright though. Bad design. They need to rethink and redesign those wires."
172526,1,not good for kindle.,this book was a waste of my money. examples are in tiny print you need to buy this as a real book
172554,1,product of very bad warm,"product of very bad warm, the following day of their use, the product it was unstitched you don't leave the same as the picture"
172596,1,nice book but boring through the half way point,"This book started off really nice, but halfway through you would be waiting for something exciting to happen or you could tell what would happen. The ending was soooooo corny and lame. i read the first two books in the series, but this book really puts to shame this series. talk about a way to make a good book terrible! Please take my advice, DON'T READ THIS BOOK!"
172614,1,Amateurish,This is the first (and I hope last!) CD I have ever had that was made in China. Very inept work by someone who does not know what either Christmas music is or what Bossa Nova music is. This belongs in the dollar discount store!
172671,1,Too broad,"I expected a book on supercharging in particular. Instead I have a book on engine tuning which is a complete redundancy in my opinion. Some of the items covered- fuel, intake ignition just to name a few. Barely covered are all the forced inducing systems. Its too broad. Barely covers any supercharger although has good graphs and formulaes for blowers and intercoolers.If you have no knowledge of engines and wish to ""force induce"" your engine this book may be good for you. But if you have no knowledge of engines you shouldn't even be doing this in the first place! Its not enough to teach engine theory and is not enough to teach forced induction systems. I wasted bucks on duplicity and now have to buy a book that deals with SUPERCHARGING! Not how to tune an engine!"
172694,1,Bad return policy,"When selling to consumers, having a return policy of a software company is wrong. Trying to return this product was a real hassle. To top it off, I was not able to return the product."
172708,1,Coffee cup broke and severed a tendon in my wrist,"While hand washing the coffee cup it slipped from my grasp and knocked into the side of my kitchen sink. As I was trying to grab it, it broke into a dozen or so very sharp pieces. One piece cut a 4 inch gash into my arm near my wrist and severed a tendon. After a 911 call and a trip to the emergency room and surgery I'm going to be in a cast for 6 weeks - right through the holidays. I knew these were breakable, but didn't realize how easily they would break or how incredibly sharp the pieces would be. Anyway - a strong word of warning about these coffee cups ... be really careful because when they break it's bad news!!!"
172710,1,I Wouldn't Buy this Book,"I just passed my ANCC ANP boards this morning. One of the NPs in my department gave me this book to use as a study guide. I took it home, looked through it and gave it right back to her. There were too many errors. Some of the answers and rationales were just flat out wrong. Also, oddly enough, some of the information in this study guide contradicted the information Dunphy provided in her Primary Care textbook which I purchased as an adjunct to my studies and found to be extremely good. I am glad I did not purchase this study guide. For everyone studying I recommend Fitzgerald's study guide and review CDs and Zerwekh's and Claborn's study guide and CDs. Good Luck."
172711,1,Horrific and Hackneyed,"This atrocious excuse for a novel starts out with a list of the number of ships in the fleets of the Galaxy Defenders and Empire of Conquerors, respectively. Um -- why should I care? The book is all clunky exposition and has a hackneyed plot that's nothing more than a blend of Animorphs and Star Wars.Terrible, and most certainly not worth $14 -- or even 14 cents. And I know for a fact that every single review for this book is either by the author, his aunt, his grandmother, or his mother."
172751,1,"Call it something else, this ain't Aeon Flux","I loved the Aeon Flux animation in HS. I would watch them over and over (mostly because MTV would reply stuff constantly) and it never got boring, there was always some new detail to take note of.This movie might be a good movie on its own. But it is not representative of Aeon Flux's world at all. It draws only the tiniest bit upon this amazing and endlessly creative world that was the original animation. I was very disappointed by this movie. It was flat and horrible if you're familiar with the animation series."
172770,1,Really really slow,"I read this book so I could pick up HTML 5. I decided that I want to do some web pages and take a break from applications. HTML 5 looks fun. So I picked this book and this book has info but it really makes you grind through the book to get to it. It's really slow paced. I like how it has pictures, but there is limit. After a point it's like the book speaks to you like it thinks you take an hour to comprehend something. Just give a topic and move on. You don't need to drag something 5 times for another 50 pages, literally. I read 100 pages for the past 3 days and still have my webpage the same as it was in page one. Matter a fact, after page one you barely write code, you just grind read the same topic over and over again. This is first my review. I never thought I'd write a review, but seriously, how stupid do you think we are? We get it, move on. This isn't Jersey Shore."
172784,1,Not happy!,"I was looking forward to viewing this movie, but was incredibly disappointed when the movie started playing and there was NO closed-captioning or English subtitles!! I ended up giving this movie away to my mother who loves Louisa May Alcott. Amazon needs to correct their error as it is very misleading. If you are a deaf or hard-of-hearing person, please do NOT get this movie."
172795,1,Never received and seller never responded to inquiries,"Seller never confirmed shipping of CD thru e-mail.Upon inquiring as to why CD was never received, seller never responded."
172796,1,Full-on weak!,"If you liked ""The Better Life,"" don't ruin your enjoyment of 3 Doors Down by buying this one. It's much less rock-oriented - mostly just pop ballads, and as another reviewer put it ""somewhat boring."" The writing isn't as good, nor is the arrangement (they seem to have gone with a studio drummer this time). Several of the tracks reminded me of the more depressing stuff on Seven Mary Three's ""American Standard.""There are a couple of tracks that are catchy, but none as good as some of those on ""The Better Life."" I get the impression that the record company asked them to water down the album - either that, or they ran out of creative steam.2 stars (maybe 2.5) because of the disappointment factor. Perhaps the album would get a 3 if ""The Better Life"" hadn't been so good."
172991,1,"okay guys, let's be serious",this is generic. nothing special. stupid cheesy harmonies and super-polished 'suffer' era bad religion sounding music with that incessant double bass peddle. all the songs sound the same and the lyrics range from generic to absurdly pathetic. the problem with the punks today is they worship this kind of garbage and have no idea what d.i.y. is. fortunately i did not pay for this.
173063,1,Not much effect,I took three bottles worth and saw a small but insignificant effect. I don't plan to buy any more at this time.
173067,1,"""searching for base"" nightmare","I loved it when I saw it, but after a while I realized the poor quality of this phone. It happened to me several times... I'm on the phone and all of the sudden I get disconnected, because the handset is searching for the base. Very frustrating! It's beautiful, but useless. Spend your money in something else."
173142,1,Me Me Me,"I am giving this book 2 stars because the author writes fairly well, and with humor. I won't, however, be recommending it to anyone. This book is a narcissistic trip through life as told by the author, who wants us to empathize with her as she leaves her moneyed lifestyle in the wake of her divorce....and has the luxury of traveling the world as she works through her angst.The navel-gazing became too much for me. I can only wonder what might have happened if Ms. Gilbert had gone to Rome, India, and Bali to serve other people less fortunate than her. That would have made for a much more interesting story, and perhaps she would have grown as a person. As it was, coming along with her while she spent endless amounts of time contemplating herself was a true bore.Don't bother."
173203,1,Gag!,"Pure unadulterated drivel. I couldn't even get to page 20, let alone page 48 with the political faux pas several readers have complained about. I am soooooooooo thankful I checked this out of the library. I would have been sad to have wasted one penny on this twaddle."
173239,1,"Sounds like a great idea, BUT.......","It read on the back like a great book. Inside though is another story. I am halfway thru it and I have not seen him CLEAN anything. It is too slow, but I want to still read to find out what happens.It is a rough patch now but I am sloggin through. If it does not pick up soon I will give up.Welty69"
173254,1,Such a waste,"I just loved the cat-and-mouse game played in the first season. The aliens thought their revival had gone undetected and despite the lost of much of their burning-ray technology, their need to take over human hosts, and their limited numbers hid out in a radioactive cave in the desert they felt confident. The humans, on the other hand, were largely clueless of the enemy they faced. Their single advantage was that the aliens didn't know that they knew. The motley crew of of defenders combined in such a way to cover each other deficiencies and enhance their talents. The alien enemy took over various humans in sets of threes from college students to fashion executives, providing a strange commentary of contempary society. Each episode brought out new revelations about the alien enemy.They threw that all away with the second season, going for glitz and battles. Such a waste."
173269,1,Extremely bad image for such a new film.,"There is a terrible issue with what some are calling ""grain"" on JURASSIC PARK. But I've seen blu-rays which show film grain, and in this case, it appears to be something else. I've become accustomed to film grain, and I've even grown to appreciate it as part of this artistic medium. With JURASSIC PARK, it looks like static or white noise...especially during the scene where Hammond shows the DNA film to the park's four guests.If you've seen THE AFRICAN QUEEN on blu-ray, then you know that there is no reason this problem should exist. JURASSIC PARK was shot in a more controlled environment with such greater technology. If they can make THE AFRICAN QUEEN look as good as it does (it looks beautiful, and stunningly sharp), then this film, which is more than 40 years younger, should look at least as good.There must be a defective batch of discs, which were released. Because it really is unwatchable."
173282,1,not the whole story,This book lacks the information about the horse more info of everything else. The book put more effort into the apparel and activites of the horse. Than actually telling about horses and what they need.
173294,1,Not Worth the Money,"Their first album was extremely solid and so I figured this cd would at least be good. I was wrong. I have forced myself to keep listening to it in hopes that it will grow on me, but it won't. I only found one awesome song and that is ""Tomorrow"". The rest of the album is just plain boring with no great melodies and hooks. Don't recommend it."
173356,1,Rather boring,"Pretty boring and way to easy. Im not even much of a video game player. The graphics were ok. Garfield is slow and akward to move, which i guess makes sense with Garfield. Good game for kids who have liitle or no experience with video games. There is no blood or violence, very safe for young eyes."
173380,1,Not as advertised!,I ordered this Bible because it was advertised as a red-letter edition. It is not - hence the 2-star rating! If the red-letter edition is important to you - do not order here; you will not receive what they are advertising!
173457,1,Unreadable!,"I am a nobody in the rarified atmosphere of Corrigan's literary world.I can say I have enjoyed her book comments on ""Fresh Air,"" but I did not enjoy this book. I bought this book expecting something quite different.It turned out to be either some sort of a justification for Ms Corrigan'sfeminism, or a cleverly couched confession that she is barren and cannot conceive? I don't know why she would write such a book. It left me feeling voyeristic and depressed.I am sorry Ms C that I did not like your book.I am sad that yet another of my heroines has opened her own veins in a gesture of self destruction.At least we do share an affection for heroines."
173465,1,Broken Record,"I've finally and forever had it! There is NOTHING new or interesting in this book. Ms. Hamilton wastes many pages on ""new"" characters while we don't even get a glimpse of some of the old favorites. I would like to see her get rid of these characters, bring back the old and give Anita a real challenge. It is a repetition of the last 3 or 4 Anita Blake books, and to be honest it reads more like erotica than a fiction novel.To echo the other reviewers, there is no plot and it is a waste of money. If you want the new info on Anita and the gang (and trust me, there isn't much), read the spoilers posted on the Internet or wait for this book to come out in paperback. Or even better, borrow it from the library."
173483,1,Remember when Anita *KILLED* the monsters???,"Remember when Anita *KILLED* the monsters rather than slept with them?In this book, we see some of the last gasps of a formerly great series as it cartwheels down the slopes into utter drek. The kick-tail vampire humter we liked in the earlier books has given way to an uber-powerful ""mary sue"" that is as irritating as she is unlikable. Add to that sex thrown in for sex's sake and it becomes bird cage liner.The early books were wonderful. Now we no longer have ""Anita Blake - Vampire Hunter"", but rather Buffy the Vampire Layer (and weres and everything else.....)At least the Merry Gentry books have enough good plot to tie the sex scenes together........"
173510,1,Doesnt work,Barely could tell that the thing was transmitting at all...spend more get more...wasnt even worth returning
173581,1,DO NOT BUY,This is by far Manu Chao's worst CD. His lyrics have no meaning and he recycles tunes from his previous CD. If you want a Manu Chao CD worth it's weight gold buy Clandestino. If you want a Manu Chao CD not worth it's weight in paper buy this terrible CD.
173609,1,not 64bit vista compatible,I bought one of these only to discover it is NOT vista 64bit compatble. It will only work on vista 32bit...no plans for 64bit support ever. Mine sits in a file cabinet with the useless software. I don't plan to buy any more microsoft branded hardware. They don't stand behind their products.
173621,1,broken bear,"It was a cute bear on my wall. I followed instructions. Went to get TP off holder for use, and it fell & broke. After learning the metal plate came off the back of the bear."
173694,1,"Started off fine, made me nauseous afterwards","While I like Dinty Moore's beef stew, it seems that this is just one product of theirs that I just don't like.The food isn't that appealing- the food was all pale & pasty looking, but looks can be deceiving when it comes to food, so I went ahead & got it anyway. C'mon... ham & potatoes! How can that be ruined?I unfortunately got my answer- you ruin it by loading it up with tons & tons of grease. The first few bites of this weren't bad & I think that if I only had a small portion of it, it wouldn't be such a terrible thing. (Hence the 2 stars rather than 1 star.) I managed to struggle through the bowl (I hate wasting food & had nothing else to eat), but shortly afterwards I just felt sick to my stomach.If you have either a cast iron stomach or you REALLY like food like this, then you'll probably like it. Me? This is just one DM product I'll never be buying again!!"
173762,1,Only edible in small amounts as an ingredient,"Length:: 2:27 MinsAs I mention in the video, the Hormel Lean Smoked Ham has a strong chemical flavor that I do not like. If you cut the ham into small pieces and mix it with a large amount of rice, beans, pasta, etc... then it would probably taste ok. But when mixed with a relatively small amount of noodles, the taste of the chemical preservatives is so overwhelming that it makes your snack/meal almost inedible. Having said that, everyone's taste preferences are slightly different, so you may want to pick up 1 can at your local grocery store and decide for yourself."
173770,1,Should be a -5 rating,"I have wasted more than 200 hours with HP Technical Support--what a joke--and have gone through 2 ""refurbished"" replacements. I use XP Pro and this machine will not maintain a wireless connection. Paper jams. Will not print with a wired connection. I was promised another replacement that never arrived. When I called HP about this, HP said they had no record of their promise and that now my warranty had expired. HP has the worst tech support of any company in my experience. This product is a lemon. HP should have recalled it."
173812,1,Drier than dry,I tried to read it and couldn't. I skipped chapters and kept trying but the author talks like she is the utmost expert and I feel like she is putting the reader down. There is way too much technical information and not enough real life information.
173905,1,Blue ant super tooth,"This is a great handfrees device, we bought three for our company trucks and locomotives and they work great, good clear sound and when talking the person on the other end say the sound is very clear, great battery life and simple to use"
173946,1,Disappointed,"This film has a really good storyline However, the unrelenting foul language, which I suppose is typical of many modern productions, was extremely annoying and unnecessary."
174008,1,DEWALT 735 PLANER,I OWN A DEWALT 735 PLANER THAT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 4 TIMES WITH FEED PROBLEMS. THE PERSON SERVICING THE PLANER SAID HE COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE PLANER I RAN 4 BOARDS THROUGH IT AND THE FEED ROLLER SEIZED UP AND BROKE THE SPROCKET AND CHAIN ALONG WITH THE COVER. THIS HAS PUT ME OFF DEWALT PRODUCTS. DENNIS WILLIAMS
174053,1,Ergonomic Nightmare,"This product works functionally. However it's design is very difficult to use. First of all, the volume works both for the alarm and the radio. So, if you want to listen to the radio quietly the alarm will be too soft to wake you up. Secondly, the dial is waaaay too bright. Even on the ""dim"" setting it lights up the whole room. Finally, look at that row of buttons on the top. Are you going to be able to figure out how to turn off the alarm? If your fingers are ultrasensitive you *may* be able to find the row of buttons but to know that you're pushing the right one is impossible.I used this for maybe a week before throwing it away. Like I said, this product does work, but take a close look at it and think about how you'll use it before you buy."
174114,1,An interesting subject drowned in a sea of banality.,"One of my friends gave me this book as a late Christmas' present. I like reading about courtesans ever since I enjoyed reading ""Nana"" by Emile Zola. The subject is a meaty one, filled with lots of whimsy and cheekiness. This writer, however, managed to deflate every ounce of excitement I had for this book. Her writing style is best described as a mix of stream-of-consciousness and ultra-flowery wording. I managed to hang on for three chapters before I ended up donating this book to a local library. A total snooze on a very interesting subject. I would give it no stars if it was possible."
174144,1,One Of This Years Worst,"If you have ever seen the older version with Henry Fonda and Lucille Ball, then you probably know that this is the most unnecessary remake ever done. There have been countless shows and movies (Cheaper By the Dozen 1 and 2 come to mind) that have all played the ""mismatched couple with a rediculous amount of kids"" card and this movie is a contrived piece of cinematic junk. I wonder what the director was thinking throughout half of this movie. Not only are their eighteen kids, what would really make this movie better would be to add an annoying pet pig to the whole mess and let it eat everything in sight and knock everything over. Shame on the directors, shame on the actors for taking these parts, and shame on their agents for finding this horrible, unfunny, rediculous remake of a movie. This film will go down as one of the years worst along with The Dukes of Hazzard and Fantastic Four."
174275,1,Wrong speed for my HP Pavilion XF125,"I plugged this memory into my HP laptop and the computer complained that it does not support PC100 SDRAM. Trouble is, I had ordered PC133, not PC100. The part says PC133, Amazon advertised it as PC133, but the computer thinks that is the wrong designation. I can tell the SODIMM has three layers of stickers on the front of it. It says the warranty is void if the sticker is removed, so my curiosity as to what those lower stickers say (maybe PC100?) cannot be satisfied."
174289,1,Wackness,"J.R. Writer sounds like a baby CamRon in voice, flow, and rhyme scheme. Even though in my opinion he's a little bit better than CamRon, that's still not saying much (since CamRon is arguably the worst rapper out right now). The album isn't as horrible as CamRon's album earlier this year either. There are actually some songs that are tight to me and if they aren't tight...they're at least listenable. But listenable doesn't make it good. JR Writer doesn't spit any game, he just raps often rambling along in his slow flow. His rhymes while technically sound, are boring. The production is riding though...always love Dipset beats and really they are the only thing that keep me interested. However, JR Writer is the most talented of anyone in Dipset I've heard so far and has a little potential. Good songs include Byrd Call, Xtaci, and That's A Bet. 2 stars."
174320,1,No,"Dani Filth told Metal Hammer this was going to be the best album yet. He said how much they are going to improve, probably because on Sony Records. And he said there was going to be a 40 piece orchestra thing... Yeah there is, but the albums CR-P! Oh he was so wrong. This is the most boring CD I own. Nothing makes you want to pick this CD up again. Babalon A.D is horrid. Get Midian or Cruelty first. Don't bother with this."
174343,1,Piece of garbage!!!!,"I would give this item negative stars if I could. Pure and simple, the compass did not work. No matter which way I faced, it would show SW. I tried standing next to a strong magnet, and it STILL didn't react. I wasted $10 on this... please don't make the same mistake I did"
174363,1,"Poor Audio, No Call Transfer","These phones look great. But one had poor audio, with callers saying I sounded like I was in a cave. The other sounded OK, but had a lag between when you pushed the answer button and when you could actually talk. Also, you can't tell someone to pick up the extension if the call is for them. Only one phone can be on at one time. The three selectable ring tones are all poor. I returned these phones."
174369,1,PSP Core Gamer External Battery,"When I first plugged in the PSP Core Gamer External Battery, it worked great. The recharging Amber light was on and working. After 15 minutes it was off. I thought maybe my PSP was fully charged. I tuned on my PSP and saw that there were only 2 battery bars. I thought maybe I didn't charge the PSP Core long enough. I charged it for about 2 hours. Same thing. Maybe it takes a long time to charge. I charged it for 16 hours just to make sure. I plugged it into my PSP and only got 15 minutes of charge time. I left my PSP on to drain the battery. Same thing. 15 minutes of charge time. This is junk. Don't get it. Even if mine was a dud, there will be others. Another reviewer said his was a dud too. I can't find a good portable rechager. I had a portable rechager call PSP Power Block and that worked great. I can't find it again."
174419,1,Save your money....,"My daughter is 9 and has a learning disability. I was looking for something to help her with the painful process of remembering so many numbers. This CD is absolutely horrible. Think bad 80s rock multiplied by 100 = total waste of money. It actually made me kind of angry it was so bad. I feel like I've been taken advantage of. Trying to help your kid make it in school is such an emotional thing. I've spent a lot of money on therapy and teaching tools for my daughter - often at the expensive of other important things- because of the disability. I'm happy to pay the price for well made quality tools. This is so bad it's like they didn't even try to make a quality product.The rap version is much, much better, though not great.I gave it one star because all the math hidden under the music is correct.In the future, I'll be avoiding all the products put out by this company. Lesson learned."
174490,1,30 year user of outdoor watches,"after owning casio, suunto version 1 and version 2's I thought would try a high gear. I bought the best High Gear watch Cabello's had and within 90 days the unit had a panel drop off. Cabello's would not exchange the unit after stating at purchase that it was warranted for one year.Not sure what High gear will do but in my opinion this watch is not worth the price that is charged and it does not look as if they will back their warranty."
174524,1,Not a fan,"I think instead of micronized they meant supersized. This stuff is similiar to cat litter and mixes like it. I don't mean spoon in a cup mixing, I'm talking shaker cup. I moved to this from the five star creatine, because I wanted something I could mix with the BSN True Mass, but the five star only comes in fruit punch, but it's worth it to have to drink it on it's on rather than drink down gravel."
174635,1,Blu Ray Pauses and Freezes,"The movie speaks for itself but I had problems with the blu ray disc for the 1st movie. About 15 minutes into the movie it began pausing, skipping and then just froze up completely. I tried it on a friends blu ray player and the same problems occurred. I've requested a replacement and once I receive it, I will update this review.UPDATE : March 17, 2002 - I forgot to post an update but Amazon mailed me a new copy without any problems or questions. The new copy works perfectly so it must have been that I received a bad disc the first time."
174648,1,Waste of Money,"This product is a waste of money. After reading some of the positive reviews, I decided to waste $20+ on it to see if it will help. I used it on my mild acne for over a month and I didn't notice the smallest change or effectiveness. Don't buy this product. Waste of money and time."
174673,1,From Bad to Worse,"May future generations judge Rod by his Mercury recordings and not Round II of this latest sell-out. This is just bad. Check out any of his recordings between ""The Rod Stewart Album"" and ""Smiler"" for an idea of how great this singer once was."
174716,1,It Broke,This french press worked fine until it broke. A piece of plastic on the plunger broke in less than 1 month of use. Might have been bad luck but be aware. Plan to spend more money on the next one.
174718,1,shipped wrong item,I purchased this as a gift. A month later i find out they shipped a 4 cup press. They probably won't use it. Bummer!
174758,1,A Pale Shadow of Lonesome Dove,"For true fans of Lonesome Dove and its inspiring and unforgettable characters Augustus McRae and Woodrow Call, this novel will be a major disappointment. If you prefer to read about Call and Gus as a couple of cardboard cut-out buffoons off on a series of preposterous and hardly believable adventures, rather than the flawed but noble (and fully developed) characters of ""Lonesome Dove"", then go ahead and buy this book. But be prepared - even if you don't mind the lack of character development, the book has essentially no plot, and is just a sequence of disjointed events. Overall, a huge step backward by a writer who wrote what I and many others believe is one of the great American novels of the 20th century. I'm not sure why he bothered with this book, but I certainly wish he had done a better job."
174792,1,Really? $100.00?,"Is that $100.00 price tag a typo?The one star rating is for the absurd price tag.The actual event was fantastic. Bon Jovi kicked booty, Cinderella was great....fantastic concert.$100.00? For a DVD?No fooling?Wow.I'll buy the video."
174861,1,Robin Cook has the elements of a book that needs completion.,"Robin Cook left us wondering what happened to the hero, his girl, the martyr who was killed, and in general never bothered to finish the book. I guess he thought he was leaving us with the feeling of a monsterous plot left ongoing to harm us all. The initial plot had some promise, but was stretched to the point of unbelievability very rapidly. As a physician very familiar with the problems with managed care, even I found this book preposterous. Michael Palmer is a much better read."
174863,1,so-so novel,This book could have been better if the ending wasn't lousy. It's like the author cut it short and we don't know what happened in the end (story was not 100% completed like a cliffhanger). It's like Hitchcock movies and you have to figure out what happened to the end of the story. I'm kind of disappointed because this was not as great as other Cook books I have read.
174970,1,"The most depressing book, ever!","I expected this book to be sad, but uplifting. This book was nothing but sad. I cried for the entire last half of the book and my husband thought that someone had really died! Overall, this is not an uplifting book, it is just depressing! Anyone who has a child will have a tough time getting through it emotionally in-tact. I am terribly sorry that I wasted my money on this book and will probably throw it away because I don't want it in my home or subject it to anyone else's eyes and heart! If you want an emotional but uplifting book, try any one of Nicholas Sparks' books...tearjerkers, but wonderful!"
174976,1,Cant even enjoy it,For some reason I can get it to D/L on 3 different pcs....Can you say WASTE of $$ ??
175016,1,PAL format,"No reviews, as I have not seen the video. I am very insterested in purchasing this video but I live in Switzerland and don't have NTSC format video recorder"
175150,1,For those of you disappointed with this CD.,"I have a reccomendation. I just went out yesterday and bought Trace Adkins' latest CD ""Comin' on Strong"".No schtick.No rhetoric.No radio filler.I defended Toby during the controversey over The Angry American. I own Pull My Chain and Unleashed. I love his early work. But... He's nothing but an ignorant money hungry redneck. A dime a dozen. I haven't listened to Shock'n Y'all and I don't intend to. I'm a fan of traditional country music as well as the outlaws like Waylon, Willie, and Bocephus. Toby is no outlaw. Any comparison to the 3 aforementioned men is an insult to their contributions to the music industry."
175161,1,SGreview,"I found this book to be very disappointing. I felt like I was reading a college term paper. The pictures look like they are very low quality and printed off a personal printer. It has font that is very large, I suspect to make it have more pages. The information was decent, just not what I expected. The author seemed to just quote from ""O"" magazine and talk shows, so it seemed like the book did not have much depth to it. It was not worth the price."
175176,1,Won't play,"I just received this DVD. It won't play in any of my 3 DVD set ups. The opening comes on with audio and video but once the band starts playing, there is no audio. There is also no audio tab on here so I can't even play with the settings to see if it would work. Because it was so cheap, I will just bite the cost and throw it out. If anyone had an audio problem with their copy and figured out how to correct it, please let me know!"
175285,1,Just another Bush-bashing book,"Bill Press has been an active Democratic operative for many, many years. To his credit, he argues passionately for the values he believes in. But this book is not his best work. Mr. Press just ticks off all the same old Democratic talking points. He doesn't add anything new to the debate."
175303,1,Yawwwwwwwwwwwwn!,"Do you like zombie movies? Do you want to see a zombie movie with zombies? If you answered yes to either of these questions than this movie may not be for you. However, if you want to watch a couple of bit-rate actors murmur bland dialogue, in practically the same setting the entire movie, you might just rate this movie as average. This movie is like being stuck in a junior high school AV club for one and a half hours with a deep voiced radio host and an annoying producer, neither of whom are very funny nor intelligent. Once again, Zombie movie without Zombies."
175403,1,Should have a better description,"This was not at all what I expected it to be. It does not seem to be a heat barrier as advertised. What it is however, is a toxic piece of material that should not be handled with bare hands nor cut without wearing a mask. A detail that should most definitely be listed in the description of this product."
175491,1,This is just evil!,"I agree with the other reviewer who said one star was far too many. It's obvious the author never had to work directly with the customers, or he'd be singing a much different tune. I agree that customers deserve respect -- as long as they're willing to give it in return. Some people fail to realize that respect is a two-way street, and if you're not willing to give it, you don't deserve it.People like him are the reason I got out of retail 14 years ago. I've personally been yelled at because of the prices going up, the store discontinuing an item, and other things that as a lowly employee, were beyond my control. I've seen customers steal, lie to get something they weren't entitled to, and even threaten the employees. But I guess that's all OK, because the customer's always right.I'd love to see this guy behind a cash register, a service desk, or on a sales floor. He wouldn't last a week."
175576,1,Not what I expected,"I was disappointed in this book when I received it. I was looking for ways to make my H.S. History class more exciting, but I found that most of the suggestions in the book were geared more for the elementary school levels. The format of the book is set-up more like a comic book than an academic book and is filled with cartoon drawings and funny sayings. Although it was fun to read, I really did not feel that I acquired any useful knowledge from it1"
175631,1,A history book- not a guide book. Misleading title and description.,"I think its misleading to call this an ""official guide"" to the AT. Its a fun expose on various aspects of AT culture and community.This is a nonfiction read that talks about the trail- yes- but if you're planning for an AT hike, you need to bring a guide book with you, and this isn't going to tell you how far you are from the next water source.Also, its outdated.Think about it. An entire CHAPTER named ""The Thing with Two Heads - Women and Couples on the Trail""?! Its almost like its a revolutionary thought that a female should hike it solo. I guess I found that a little insulting.While I recognize that this book has an audience of recreational readers and those who are not trying to gear up for their thruhike, I believe that consumers should be wary that the title and descriptions amazon gives us are misleading."
175642,1,Poor quality,"I purchased this even with all the poor reviews because it was the only toy my son wanted for Christmas. It doesn't stay on the tracks well, however this doesn't bother my son as he thinks that is part of the fun. However, the coupling broke after two weeks. Thomas toys are too expensive to break after a short period of time. Currently have request for exchange it to Learning Curve. Only time will tell if they will honor it."
175714,1,Not what I expected,The book was mostly about the authors personal experiences and doing miracles. One page on how to fast. Not really want I expected.
175751,1,DON'T LET IT GET HOT!,"WELL RIGHT OUT OF BOX,THERE WERE NO LIGHTS.SETUP VERY EASY,JUST DO NOT LEAVE PLUGGED IN FOR A LONG TIME(5 OR 6HRS.)IT STARTED DELETING FILES,LUCKILY IT SHOWS ON THE TOOLBAR,AT FIRST I THOUGHT NOTHING OF IT,BECAUSE I DIDN'T RECOGNIZE THE FILE,BUT THEN I NOTICED IT WAS DELETING MY RESTORE FILES.I TOOK IT OFF THE SYSTEM AND UNPLUGGED IT.I THEN CHECKED MY RESTORE AND ALL THE CHECKPOINTS WERE GONE.I NOW JUST PLUG IT IN WHEN I AM GOING TO USE IT."
175785,1,Rock em' sock em',"I didn't like this toy because the arms hardly move. And, it's basicly rigged, because it's impossible for buzz Lightyear to hit emporer zurg's chest. Either Lightyear's arm is too short or whimpy, or zurg's arm is too long and srong. so when me and my sister play it, who ever has zurg always wins."
175799,1,hmm,i actually did not like this as the type is faded in some parts. i had no clue this book was from the 1800's either! it is a little wordy but im sure that it has very authentic explanations as it has not really been revised. so if you are looking for authentic get this but if not then don't. personally the wordiness and type turned me off
175821,1,Archangel Pretty Dull!,"Nothing much happens in this futuristic cyber society. Cyber angels stalk the LINK (a futuristic version of the internet) while real angels inhabit human bodies and skulk around in pseudo-spy fashion. It captured my interest at first, but quickly went nowhere. I'm a bit disapointed because angels should make for a great subject in fiction but so far no one had been able to hit a high mark. The writing is good, the characters are interesting...I just wanted some plot. This had great potential but never reached the heights."
175835,1,Definitely not for PC,"From the Product Description, it mentioned it can also be used on PC with bluetooth. Well, it's not true. I tried to set it up but cannot get through. They should have included the Widcomm software to be able to communicate with my notebook."
175851,1,"Hello, GOODBYE!!!!","Hardly a page turner, and most assuredly not the ""definitive"" Beatles biography. Many, many inexcusable errors, anyone interested enough to tackle this long, plodding book would know. If you are reading this, I am guessing you have already read much better books on ""the boys""."
175857,1,Rantings of an expert on propaganda,"What irony....Noam Chomsky writing about media propaganda. At least he has firsthand experience with the topic, as the radical Left has made judicious use of his mastery of linquistics for their propaganda machine for decades."
175910,1,Unsatisfactory,"My personal opinion I would not order anything from groundhigher. I ordered the movie, The Lion King for my 7 yr. old grandson. I was told I would recieve it by 4/21/09..Well it is now 5/04/09 and I have not received it as yet..I have sent one email to that person and no response..I just sent another one tonite. Doubt if I get a response on that one either..Very disappointed and I was gonna rate this a one but it came up 2 stars and not even worth that."
175956,1,Useless as a phrasebook,"This is not a phrasebook! It's a pocket dictionary. If I wanted a pocket dictionary, I would not have ordered something with ""phrase book"" in the title. There are only a handful of phrases in the entire book! Will return for something more useful. Will NOT recommend."
175980,1,Natural is just a gimmick- contains Parabens and more,"Except for the aloe vera there is nothing natural about this product. I love the smell though, it has a light fresh smell that I find refreshing. However what is so natural about the following ingredients that are found in this product: Methylparaben, Propylparaben, PhenoxyethaCompare those preservatives above to thsse used in Aubrey Organic's shampoos: Aubrey's Preservative (Citrus Seed Extract, Vitamin A, C, E)Which of these are more natural?This company uses organic and natural as gimmicks and a marketing ploy. There is no difference between this product and any other one you find on the shelf that doesnt use the word natural.If you want a natural shampoo try another brand and read the ingredients before buying. Parabens are parabens, harmful chemicals are just that even if they are preceded by the world natural."
176001,1,Worst watch I ever had,"This watch is a nice looking watch but very bulky. The automatic movement does not work well. This watch keeps poor time, losing about ten minutes a week if you can keep it running. The only way to keep it running is to wear it when you sleep at night. If you take this watch off and let it sit for eight hours it will stop. You have to reset this watch every single day. Also, the latch on the band is very poor and comes undone easily. I used this watch for about a month and threw it in the trash. It wasn't worth the postage to send it in for repair. All in all, the worst watch I have ever owned. No more Invicta automatics for me. The only reason I rated it a 1 star is because they didn't give me a choice of zero stars."
176011,1,TIME FOR A NEW PRINTER,"My Canon printer is about 8 years old,BJC 2100. The cartridge is no longer in any retail store. Can get refurbished on line. In general not worth the problems. Purchased one from Amazon vendor stated ""*SPECIAL PROMOTION!* - NEW Sealed OEM GENUINE Canon BC-20 Ink jet Cartridges from Canon, GUARANTEED Non-Expired. 99% of orders..."" Once I removed the sticker covering the ""do not use after date it read 2006 05"". It was bone dry. Returned to Amazon to get a full refund inc. shipping. Always good to do business with Amazon. Time for a new printer."
176056,1,Eat Drink Man Woman,"I had seen this movie in the theatre - and it had English sub-titles, However, the DVD I received did not have English sub-titles and I don't speak, or understand, Chinese. I returned it and expect a full credit - unless there is a version with English sub-titles, then I will accept an exchange."
176124,1,I love rock & roll; hits of the '50s,"This is, by far, the worst CD I have ever heard. I grew up in the '50s and know that these are not the original artists who are listed. Whoever is pretending to imitate them is not even close. The musicianship and recording qualities are horrible; if the songs had been done well by other musicians, it would not be quite such a disappointment!"
176147,1,"This movie should be a thing of the PAST,",I almost forgot this movie right after leaving the theatre. The action scenes are ridiculous. There's neither excitement nor suspense. The plot is bare bone. The acting is bland. Michelle Yeoh is a good actor but she had nothing to work on.The money this film made at the box office accurately reflects how bad it is.
176198,1,Cheap but still not worth the money.,Have tried 2 packs of these bulbs in the same light - they are lucky to last more then a month each and I don't move or bumb the light. Not pleased with their life.
176267,1,WEAK PLOT MAKES THIS A WEAK MYSTERY,"Now I like a good fictional novel as much as anyone else and I'm willing to grant an author as much freedom as possible, but this plot is so bad--so unrealistic--that its obvious that the author was grasping at straws to derive a plot. The motivation behind the murders is so implausible that this sticks out in your mind, when there was so many other possible things that could have made reading this book a rich experience. The author's writing style changes so often in the book that I found it distracting, and toward the end, downright irritating. Descriptions of Shanghai and surrounding China are somewhat memorable--I hope for the sake of the author that they are accurate."
176379,1,new but did not work,This item was jus as described new in package however once opened it did not work. . tried batteries brand new name brand and did not work. Would not even power on .
176394,1,extremely loud,"I have three cats who absolutely refuse to drink from anything but a fountain or the tub faucet. I've always used a Petmate fountain before, but liked the water stream on this one because it looks like the water stream from the tub faucet. So I bought one. I read the reviews that said it was loud, but thought it would be like my fish tank filter where, once you got used to it, it was fine. However, this was not the case - it was VERY loud in a grinding sort of annoying way - and, yes, I did have enough water in it. I threw it out and bought another Petmate - don't waste your money."
176479,1,rest in peace,"I had purchased an iPod about a month and a half ago, and it's dead already; it just stopped working!! I haven't dropped it at all, and it's been in my purse the entire time. Nothing has happened to this product for it to just cease playing (unless you count playing the songs)...I might be in a small percentage of people who are displeased with the iPod, but $300 dollars is too much money to spend on something that just stops working..."
176524,1,not worth the bother of returning,"i have one of those modern bathrooms where the architect forgot to put in a medicine cabinet!! Either way I ordered this as a make shift cabinet, it serves it's purpose but it is not pretty or well made. Some parts are not sanded and it looks like i was painted by a five year old (and no it's not part of the antique look). If your desperate for a medicine cabinet go to Target gut out a jewelry box and you'll get better quality and it will be cheaper."
176601,1,It was okay,"The textbook was in good condition, but the person who sold it to me was extremely highlighter happy. The information I'm trying to learn is difficult enough with out the explosion of colors and extra comments the seller added. I think I am going to buy another one...... no offence, but next time please include in the description that it has highlighted sections."
176607,1,INSUFFICIENT MATERIAL,"NEEDS MORE CONTENT, ITS NOT THE VENDORS FAULT. KREG HAS TO FILL UP THAT DVD WITH GOODIES -- THEY WOULD WIN IN THE END BY SELLING MORE GEAR -- MEATHEADMARKETINGSTRATIDGY"
176651,1,Disappointed,"I enjoyed _A Rush of Blood to Your Head_, but was disappointed by this new album. Unpoetic lyrics set to random tunes."
176800,1,Released Direct-to-Landfill,"Initially, I thought the evening I spent watching ""Cinderella 2"" was an evening wasted. But, in retrospect, it was community service, because if I can dissuade even one innocent unsuspecting person, just one, from ruining an evening of their lives by watching this mindless, smoldering dreck, it will have been worth it. This direct-to-video sequel to a Disney classic is a prime example of perfectly good magnetic tape gone to waste. Sloppy, unskilled animation (which Walt Disney himself would have relegated to the cel-scrubbing crew) hastily hacked out by an untrained overseas unit, stories that diminish the original's satisfying closure, and voices that will send your child crying from the room all add up to a miserable, torturous experience. People watch Disney animation for a reason--they want that magical experience that comes from wonderful artistry, and a fun story, well told. Sadly, you will find none here, and hence, no magic."
176813,1,Quilts Among the Plain People,I was disappointed with this book - perhaps I had misread what it was about. Firstly it is in black and white on quite ordinary paper. I was expecting a tutorial book but found this leant more to the history of Quilting in the Amish community. Perhaps this might be acceptable to someone who had not heard of the Amish people and their association with quilts.
176818,1,Don't Like,"I could not get this pedometer to reflect accurately the number of steps taken. Every time I did a double check on the number of steps taken, it was off by at least a third. I don't use it for this reason."
176852,1,Bought and returned immediately,"I'm with Maulleigh ""Maulleigh"" (New York, NY), these things don't fit (try bending your head down while wearing them and they slip off). Worthless."
176857,1,Buyer beware with this phone,"I have had SEVERAL cordless phones in the past, very few lasting any length of time. The last V-tech I had was AWESOME. Not wanting to spend a large amount of money I opted for this phone. HUGE mistake. The answering machine is awful - either cutting messages off or garbling them so as not to understand a word of it. The handsets are full of static - my callers always indicate that I am fading out so I am constantly repeating things to them. Very Annoying. I have had the phone for about 3 months and am going out tomorrow to replace it with a V-Tech product. Please be careful when purchasing this item."
176890,1,Worst Purchase in a Long Time,"I purchased this phone set for work, thinking that inexpensive replacement phones would ease the pain of things being spilled on them or dropped. The sound quality has been poor since day one, the base constantly drops calls, and now there seems to be some sort of short circuit in the base--we can no longer use the AC adapter with the base or it turns off completely. When I purchased this set, I never imagined I would be running my business telephones off of 4 AA batteries.Other complaints: you can't put line 1 on hold and answer line 2 with the same handset without a ""conference call"" beginning. The incoming call volume is incredibly low and it is often difficult to hear my customers (it was so bad I had my hearing tested because I thought something was wrong with me. Yes, I'm blonde, but this proves to me it's the phones!).I will never buy another GE phone again. Period."
176902,1,Falls short...,"The book, besides being out of date, fell way short of expectations in its day. There is a relatively short section specific to the breed followed by the typical, formulaic, generic 'any' dog breed advice found in book series of this ilk. The health information was minimal and glossed over the health issues found in the breed."
176908,1,Completly Wrong,"This book is obviously the work of someone who has never ever deployed as an real sniper who had to use the heavy system in the real world. It would appear that the author has worked with the system in a school environment only. Most of the information contained in this book are useless and the author's opinions seem to drive the content. Anyone who has to really use these systems would be best advised not to use this information because it is WRONG! To use a surveyers instrument for ranging in a combat environment is irresponsible to say the least given the current systems available. The author says that a lazer can be detected which is why he advocates the theodolites use. This is the statement of an amatuer who has never deployed and had to use the system for real. His mission planning and firing sequence are ridiculous and a sure why to get killed in combat. Given the price of the book, it is a hugely overpriced fictional novel.."
176950,1,Transmitter will not work,"I bought this item and right out of the box the transmitter did not work. I am trying to resolve this with RCA right now.Buy another product, all I read about on the internet is the transmitter not working for many people."
176956,1,Janet @ 20,I did not enjoy this cd. I tried to give it away free in a fundraiser and nobody claimed it nor was it any help in getting donations.
176965,1,Only two worked out of the three,"I bought three collars as all the dog will bark and start the other two barking.Two of the collars work fine but one dose not. I thought it may be to loose but it wasn't, when I checked it.That's why I gave it a TWO. Other wise they are good."
176981,1,Leapster is the worst handheld ever,I have watched my friend play with a leapster.He says he hates it but his mom nakes him play it.All it plays are learning games.I like pixter color better.Pixter color has a arcade cartrigde the plays non-learning arcade games.I would not (...)!
177022,1,Better to buy the book and video seperately,"This ""Classic Masterpiece Book & DVD Set"" does not do well by the masterpiece that is Jane Austen's book. The book is a cheap, flimsy thing, with significant typos every six pages or so. It truly gets in the way of reading. I recycled it.The movie, is of course wonderful, and in itself is fine, but there is no reason to waste money buying it with a book that is nothing more than a sad waste of trees.Do buy the movie, and do buy the book -- just don't buy this set!"
177226,1,UGH.,"Shooter is a no talent hack trying to get big off his Daddy's name. There is no comparison between him and Waylon, becasue Mr. Waylon Jennings was a true country hero with heart. PLEASE don't waste your time on this album if you are looking for a new country outlaw. All of these songs are polished pieces of Nashville garbage. Check out Hank III for some real new school outlaw country...I hear the new album comin out this month is gonna tear lil Shooter + all the shiny happy Nashvillians a new one! I would have given this album NO STARS if there was an option to do so."
177274,1,Fiction,"Running with Scissors ranks right up there with A Million Pieces as a work of fiction. Though the basic outline of this book could be true, the author seems to have a very vivid imagination in creating both the characters and the plot. This book is disgusting."
177293,1,reader beware,"yes, I'll agree that Augusten Burrough's is a good writer- that seems to me the only good that came out of his highly dysfunctional upbringing! Had I known I was going to be reading about very graphic homosexual incidents, I would have left the book at the store- disgusting! A lot of people call this book funny... I found it tragically sad- I only wish Augusten would have had a hero that intervened for him, but I suppose that doesn't always happen. :("
177309,1,"Looks Great, Doesn't Last","I received this watch in February and the crystal cracked in a major way (with no abuse or accident) in July.I've owned several Skagen watches and been generally satisfied with their performance. However, unlike the other watches of this design that I've owned, this watch has a crystal that bulges outward. I have read other reviews that indicate that the crystal is a weak point in this watch and I completely agree."
177396,1,Just plain stupid,The only reason I finished this book was to write this short review. I think John Hodgman is quite funny when I see him on the Daily Show but this book is just plain stupid. I tried imagining his dead-pan voice while I was struggling through it trying to find the humor but I failed to find the joke. I'm certainly glad I didn't waste my money on it and I'd like to warn others not to waste theirs.
177407,1,OK in the short-term,"I have a Brinkmann 4415, and I can echo the other complaints out there - mine was good for a few years, but if something happens.... Although I have kept it covered for the entire time it was not in use, I have lots of rust in the interior parts. Now, it's like a blowtorch. I called Brinkmann to figure out what was wrong and order new parts, but couldn't get through. Emailed, but no response so far, and I've been waiting about 2 weeks. I woudl stay away."
177430,1,It failed to charge after the initial charge!,I followed the manual. It failed to charge after the initial charge. I sent 2 of these units back and got the 3rd unit right now. I have no idea what was causing this issue but I don't think I can recommend this to anyone. I found similar charging issues reported elsewhere online. Do your research before investing in this low cost grooming system.
177471,1,Waste of money.,"Bought this for my husband to keep in his work truck. It didn't keep anything cold, and the motor died in it within 2 months."
177528,1,Total crap,"I received the rod. The handle was falling off when received. Threads on both rod and in handle were completely gone that it screws on. I elected to try are repair it wrather than return it. Handle hole had to be drilled to a larger size Handle was cheap pot metel and barely took threads, then had to re-thread rod to match it. I wish I had spent more and got a good one."
177578,1,Poor quality phone.,"Poorly made, inexpensive chordless phone. Not user friendly at all. Hard to read LCD and short battery life. Would not recommend buying the Panasonic Dect 6.0"
177755,1,Not worth a dime.,"You get what you pay for. Only one out of 6-9 will fit if you're lucky and when you only have few minutes to join boards, you'll wish you had spent the extra cash and bought Lamello."
177832,1,DONT BUY THIS TOY!,"I purchased one of these for my nephew at Christmas, only to be embarrased when it did not work. I returned it to Toy's are US. I had to buy one to replace it from an Amazon store, it also did not work. Apparently they have a factory defect Fisher Price is not telling us about. BEWARE"
177838,1,THIS TOY IS HAUNTED!!!!!,"This toy might be fun, if it didn't start spontaneously singing songs in the middle of the night on its own. We haven't even ever taken the ""puppy"" out of its box, and yet, that has not stopped it from entreating our daughter to come play with it from the other room.Also, I don't know what some of the other reviewers meant, but it seems to us that playing with a haunted demon-spawn of a toy does nothing to help prepare little children develop the skills they'll need later in life to get a job in the current economy, or any other educational aspect in general, unless they plan on a future career as an exorcist.May be a fun toy to play with, but we're all too scared."
177860,1,Re-hash of the manual,"This book is simply a repeat of the manual that comes with the game. Most strategy guides at least offer game-specific tips on how to play; this one doesn't even go that far. In fact, in the section entitled ""Aerial Combat Tactics,"" the manual that comes with the game is much, much more complete. Only buy this book if you need to - as I had (my two year old destroyed my manual)."
177865,1,Another Danny Ainge Moment!,"I was really disappointed in this shallow,collection of crumbs from Phelps. It is much less interesting and honest than Echoes on the Hardwood by Mike Coffey. This would have been a good opportunity to hear Phelps explain why he couldn't win it all with some really great rosters. Instead we get a boring recital of Digger's finer moments, and total glossing over of his obvious shortcomings as a coach. This is more a book about how much Digger likes Digger than it is about basketball, the game, and character building. Save your money...buy Coffey's book, not this one"
177896,1,NOT FLATTERING!,"I don't get how reviewers are giving this 5 stars?! tks alot totally tricked me into buying a pair. ordered a small but the material is too thin or something because it gives you .. umm how do I say.. a very unflattering view between your legs! haha anyway havent worn these in public once but it wasn't worth retunring because of the restocking/shipping fee. ugh. waste of money, dont buy. thats what i get for trying to buy cheap yoga pants.. stick to lululemon!!!"
177972,1,"Please, someone, write another Oracle book","This book was required for a class I am taking, and I can't think of another reason to buy it. If you have a strong background in similar forms development platforms, you may be able to get enough out of this book to work with Oracle. But if you are completely new, this is not the book for you. The author brings in way, way too much extraneous detail, and the examples are complex and unrealistic. Some exercises require you to use tools & concepts not introduced until later chapters."
178076,1,Great if you like misogynist writing and twincest,"Typical male-written fantasy. Strange sexual pairings, women as plot devices, and so generic it could have been a very long mad lib.I can't say I had high expectations, but I suppose they just weren't low enough to enjoy A Game of Thrones.Points to Martin, however, for getting people to read and buy it."
178107,1,Bad OCR job on the Kindle edition,"At first when I was reading this book I'd every now and then stumble across a misplaced character. ""Tom cat"" became ""torn cat"", every now and then a parenthesis would sneak its way in, or a semicolon.Now that I'm about halfway through, it seems like one very other page I encounter at least one instance of incorrect characters.It seems to me that this book was converted to Kindle by means of optical character recognition (OCR). Whoever was reviewing the OCR job for mistakes wasn't very good in the first place, and it seems about halfway through he or she just gave up.Having to stop and unwind the mystery of the misplaced character is just terrible for immersion. It's also inexcusable in age when the publisher certainly possesses perfect digital copies of the text."
178118,1,Watch the show,"Don't bother reading the book, just watch the show. I found the author's use of the English language irksome. The plot isn't particularly bad, but the writing style for the more sophisticated reader is distracting."
178126,1,Scary Movie was Scarier!,"This has to be one of the worst horror movies I have ever seen next to Blair Witch. The quality of the video camera they used is horrible, for a couple hundred dollars you by one that produces better videop than this. The was shot on an early 1980's video camera. I used to make movies like this when I was about the age of this actor, writer, and producer. This movie bored me sick I turned it off half way through it, I kept waiting for the scary parts but none ever came. I know it was done on a shoe string budget but video camera's are cheap and so is software to produce these effects. What were people thinking when they said this was the scariest movie they have ever seen. I guess this generation has never seen the Exercist, Legend of Hell House, or The Entity. The Entity is still the creepiest movie I have ever seen. Buy the Entity and don't waste your money on this."
178225,1,Terrible!,"I purchased this for my per-k class. The pages sat side by side (2 pages at once). This was extremely confusing for a 4 year old. I downloaded this book to my iPad so the children could use it at the listening center. Well, there was nothing to listen to!, I do not advise purchasing this book. To say the least, I was extremely dissatisfied. I would rate this zero stars but my review needed at least one star to be accepted."
178226,1,"Made my hair thicker, but clumped and lost more hair","I was shedding more than usual from stress and decided to try this product. It made my hair feel and look great, but it also caused my hair to knot and then the knots/clumps would fall out. I thought it was part of my hair loss until I was traveling and did not bring this product with me. Sure enough, when I didn't use it, no knots and clumps. To be totally sure, when I got home I tried it one last time and it happened again. It must be because it is glue like. If you are having this problem while using this product, try stopping and see what happens."
178262,1,Save your money and your time. Not a book worth reading,"Morris brings disdain, arrogance and cynicism to everthing he writes about, whether it is American culture, Christianity and the church, life in the mid west, or the person he is writing about. I finished 100 pages and decided to stop reading. His insertion of himself as the main character is arrogant, distracting and downright annoying. He constantly corrects Ronalds memories of his own life (while ironically maintaining that Raegan has a near photographic memory). I bought the book with eager anticipation and am very disappointed. Nancy Reagan is right - he wasted a unique opportunity to do an adequate job of a biography. He failed miserably at that task."
178276,1,a waste of time with beautiful people,"spread was just a stupid movie with a lot f beautiful people. i'm glad i got it for a dollar because i would have been really pissed if i had to pay money for such a waste of a movie. It should have been a tv of the week movie on tv or basic cable or something, but hey remember this is just my opinion you who is reading this might love the movie so judge for your self."
178278,1,Not good enough for 1 star,"This was one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life.I fast forwarded many of the parts, just to get to the end faster.Pure buyer's regret on this one.There should be a rating of ZERO stars, 1 star is too high for this one."
178296,1,Piece Of Junk,"This was a complete waste of time and money. It never worked even for one minute, not even for a second.The brackets are flimsy and the instructions useless. After seeing it didn't work we hooked it to a volt meter and spun it with a hand drill. Voltage output was ZERO.I guess I should have returned it ASAP but instead I hooked the two lights up to a rechargeable 6 volt battery and try to keep my battery charged."
178299,1,NO SMELL,I think the reason I have always liked Yardley English Lavender Soap was the wonderful fragrance. I can't believe I paid so much for this soap and it must be very old or fake. It doesn't even physically resemble the real thing. Save your money.
178346,1,This product simply doesn't work.,"This headset does not work. Even when it is fitted properly, the majority of the time the ""Noise Shield"" blocks the sound of my voice, along with all the background noise. I'm far less safe driving while trying to deal with this terrible headset than I would be just talking on my phone. For a product that costs as much as this one does, I expect it to work far better and with greater ease than this thing does."
178349,1,Stay away from this item - buy a newer model,"I purchased two of these headsets for my wife and I, and neither item worked for more than two weeks. The charger ripped the tail piece off of my wife's headset, and my Jawbone stopped transmitting my voice. I have coworkers who love their Jawbone, but they have a newer version. This version is deep discounted because it is worthless."
178362,1,Ear wax in a so called new Jawbone Bluetooth,"I purchases 2 Bluetooth Jawbones from this vendor. This past weekend I received the delivery. However, they were quick in delivering the items, one of the two items looks new and works, however the other one looked used.Before I opened the boxes, one of them didn't have all the packaging and wrapping as the other. It was obvious that the item had been used as the instructions that came with it has water spots on it and most discussing is the ear piece was dirty and has ear wax in the opening. I showed it to a co-worker who was interested in purchasing from this vendor, but now has seeked another. The ear piece doesn't stay in place and the ear loop falls off.I'm emailing this vendor to exchange it. Although I'm happy with one of them, just the sight of ear wax on the other discusses me. Will update as soon as I hear back from the vendor."
178384,1,disappointing,"There are some excellent books to read if you are suffering from grief, but this isn't one of them. It is missing the ring of truth, but even if you do believe Van Praagh (a big hurdle for me), it's very awkwardly written in that it tries to cast him as some sort of bereavement counselor, which doesn't work, at least not for me. Instead read Closer to the Light by Melvin Morse, M.D. (which gives examples of near death experiences of children) and Hello From Heaven by Bill and Judy Guggenheim (which simply offers hundreds of after death communications people have submitted to them). These books are very convincing, even to the skeptic, and very comforting. Another book, The Afterlife Experiments by researcher Gary Schwartz, Ph.D. is an excellent introduction to several good psychics who have done well in various test situations, often delivering stunning hits."
178414,1,twisted,Same as Moby Dick only on land. They hardly changed the story at all. It's kind of a rip-off actually.
178450,1,How Loud can you go,"I found this trainer online and read the reviews and i was expecting it to be a little loud..but it is way TOO LOUD..the faster you ride the louder it gets, i thought i could drown it out with headphones, but nope..if you are looking for something quieter, spend the extra money. Wont be riding this at 5am, I will wake the whole house. You get what you paid for, and it is not peace and quiet."
178477,1,AWESOME,"this book is great. if you read it you can begin to understand that there are actually hundreds of people out there just like you. fighting with addiction, family, and relationships. i read this book all the time because it relates so well with what me and my friends deal with all the time. this book is almost as addicting as marijuana! if you pick it up theres no putting it down! read it!"
178561,1,Film came different from picture and type,I ordered 600 Platinum Film from Ace Photo and Digital. The picture showed Polaroid Platinum Film and this was written on the order form but when the film arrived it was just the plain 600 instant film. I would not have paid more money if I knew it was the regular film. It seems like false advertising. When I called the company they said that Polaroid stopped making that type of film and that it is basically the same film. I am really unsatisfied. I would have just gone to Target and bought it for the same film. They offered me a 10% refund. Don't be tricked if you think you're getting something different than the regular film.
178566,1,Authors should NOT narrate their audio books,"I want to listen to this book, truly I do. And I know that I'll like it because it's right up my alley. But I could not get through the first disk. Why do some authors insist on reading their own books? Is it to save a buck? Is it because they think they can do it better justice than an actor? Well, they're wrong in most cases. I couldn't get past the dramatic (or otherwise) pauses this author used, sometimes between every word in a single sentence. Usually, I hang in there and even an annoying voice starts to grow on me or becomes tolerable. This was painful though. So I guess I'll have to do it the good old fashioned way, and download it to my Kindle. :-)"
178631,1,Broken within days.,"This product did not work as advertised, it is very difficult to tune in and it actually broke without any abnormal stress on the unit. The low cost made it prohibitive to return."
178661,1,Da Vinci Con!,"Alright besides his ignorance and complet absurdities this guys makes in this illogical and inaccurate story, he blantly shows his stupidity in stating that the dead sea scrolls were discovered in the 1950s. Well every 6th grader knows that they were actually discovered in 1947, now if he can get a basic fact incorrect, how can the rest of his ""facts"" be correct?"
178708,1,A plot based on stolen research,"I love this subject, and so was excited at the prospect of this novel. However, to readers of the non-fiction books ""Holy Blood, Holy Grain"" and ""The Templar Revelation,"" there is absolutely new. Mr. Brown has taken other scholars' research and fashioned a not-so-innovative plot. In effect, he has taken credit for others' work. That, combined with his cheesy, manipulative suspense techniques (a cliffhanger at the end of every 2-page chapter) make this a disappointing read. Perhaps Mr. Brown should have just skipped the novel and went straight for the screenplay."
178757,1,"OK, but not power enough motor",The nail touch tool is OK but doesn't have enough power to really do the job. I would purchase a more powerful tool instead.
178812,1,Nothing to write home about...,"I bought this book thinking it sounded interesting, and since I'd heard quite a bit about the author but hadn't read anything of his yet, I gave it a whirl. I was extremely disappointed about a quarter of the way through the book, and from there, it only got worse. Meltzer is a gifted writer, I believe, but not gifted enough to break as many conventions of fiction writing as he does with disturbing frequency. I had to grit my teeth to read past the halfway point, and am genuinely surprised at how many positive reviews this novel has received. It's not the worst I've read, but I have to say I expected more. If you can smell bad writing from more than a mile away, look somewhere else. This novel was a page-turner in the sense that I read on only to see if it would improve. It didn't."
178840,1,mostly horrible,"I agree with the ""Horrible"" review that this album and ""A period of transition"" are the weakest of the early Van recordings, however, I am holding Van to a standard that most artists can't approach. While it is rather light and too pop for my taste I disagree that this album is not worth owning. Like a period..., Wavelength has a couple of tracks that will rock you enough if you really need a Van fix. Buy this album after you have 7 other pre-1980 Van/Them albums."
178855,1,In the Wake of the Plague,"Riddled with errors. His cosmic dust comments--why not an X-Files script instead? It raises questions about the editors named in his acknowledgments. With many excellent publications on the topic and research now probing microbial evidence, it does a disservice to historical research and to the publishing industry that accepted his manuscript."
178856,1,Put some flesh on the bones of this book!,"At first I thought it was me. After several chapters I had to stop reading this book because I was having trouble following the narrative. A month or so later I tried again and found the same rambling, scattershot text with a sprinking of interesting ideas. I found it amazing that such a short book was this difficult to read.This book has many interesting ideas. However they are introduced and never fleshed out. There is a certain lurching quality from one topic to another. There seems to be no effort by Mr. Cantor or his editor to provide the background and context required to back up conclusions presented.All in all, this is a very dissapointing book. The large type, short chapters, and small pages appear to be disguising the quickly-written, poorly-edited equivalent of a term paper."
178862,1,Not organic with every purchase,"First time I ordered this product I received it certified organic, as described. Second time the bottle just said 100% pure jojoba oil. Not organic neither did it have the USDA certificate label. It was only an extra sticker that said it was organic. After reading previous reviews I now see that it's not the first time it happens.Amazon was helpful and item was returned."
178911,1,Waste of time,I wanted to love this book. It was pretty stale and passionless. I hope Mr. Mason's second book is much better.
178912,1,"Boring, slow, ubelieveable","I found this novel slow and boring, especially considering the epic nature of the main character's journey. The author has a shallow understanding of historical events and, worse, of music and literature- and, far worse, of women.Many events were incredulous,not the least of which is how the lead character was used by the man who owned the piano. The writer seemingly created a conspiracy as he went along. Also highly irritating was the abuse of the comma!"
178916,1,Not a Top,"This is some kind of weird yo-yo, it's not a top. It won't spin. It comes with a string and a really sharp pointed bottom edge. There is no place to actually spin the thing. I just wanted something to play with at my desk and this is some kind of magic trick or something. Pretty awful product if you ask me."
178932,1,Poorly organized material,"I bought this book because it was the most recently published title on JSF, even though I like Horstmann's writing style and would have bought the Geary and Horstmann book if it hadn't seemed likely to be a little out of date. After trying to work my way through disorganized discussions of individual points that were not tied to any clear examples or to other aspects of JSF, shifting forwards and backs trying to string information together into simple working examples, I read a few sample chapters of the Horstmann book online, and was reminded of what a pleasure a well-written book can be. Coming from a Struts programming background, I had expected learning JSF to be rather straightforward. I expect it to be after I replace this book."
178947,1,Every FRD book is great except this one!!!,"Do not buy this book for your kids, unless you live in an Amish community or somewhere where you know and trust absolutely everyone. The girls befriend an elderly single man and it's quite quaint and nice if it weren't for the horrible reality of our world today. The girls are rewarded and rejoice in befriending a strange man, alone, with no adults present. It is sweet and naive story, a dangerous lesson in our times."
178993,1,Absolutely Not,"Paying for a 2 minute preview? Are you kidding me? And in this economy, Amazon, this is the worst idea ever."
179115,1,AcuRite is AcuWrong.,"I plugged this clock in and waited 24 hours for it to correct the time shown, which was 4 minutes slow. It never self corrected so I set the correct time from my atomic watch. The clock lost about 1 minute per month. I set the correct time from my atomic watch. It lost about 1 minute per month (rinse and repeat). After several months I looked up the Chaney web site and described the lack of performance by e-mail with no response. I called the support phone # but never spoke to a human being (they were busy handling other's complaints. I saw where I could return the clock for service but they wanted more than 25% of the cost sent with the clock. I decided that it will be cheaper to buy a clock from another manufacturer. I suggest that you do the same."
179121,1,Boring...........................,Universal Studios doled out about $175 million dollars or more for this Biblical comedy -- forgot that no one laughs in Sunday school. They sleep through it.I was very disappointed....
179172,1,Prepare to be dazzled?????,"That's what the cover said....I say be prepared to be disappointed. The book was at best, boring, with nothing intriguing or dazzling about it. I like books about social trends, but this book didn't tell me anything new, and I doubt it will tell you anything you haven't already figured out. It is grueling going through the statistics waiting for the dazzling part, which doesn't come. Don't bother with it. I'm returning mine. (I think I've returned maybe five books in 30 + years of book buying...) Forget it."
179184,1,A major letdown.,"This book was a major let down for me. I can't fathom why people think it's so great. First, there is WAY too much historical detail about some of the groups he is relating to. I felt like I was reading a documentary on the KKK or drug dealers much more than I was learning about economics. And this book only goes into a few cases, I was expecting much more to be explained about the rest of the world. The last few chapters were devoted solely to white and black baby names, and seemed totally, utterly pointless and gave me no economic insights that I can use in my daily life. I guess that's what I was looking for, something that would give me insight into my daily life, but nope. It's just a long, dawn out essay. All the ""expanded"" stuff in the back is just reprints. A really fake way to charge more for your book and try to make people think it's current.If you think you MUST read this book, get it from the library. Don't waste a penny on it."
179235,1,My Family Wouldn't Eat Them,"I purchased a 12-pack of Kashi GOLEAN Peanut Butter & Chocolate bars for myself and my family. We tried one and nobody wanted to finish it. It tasted way too much like a ""power"" bar. I didn't expect a candy bar, but there are some healthy bars that taste good. The bars sat in our kitchen for a few weeks before we threw the rest (11) away. What a nasty tasting waste of money! I contacted Kashi about returning the bars, but they just sent me a few coupons for some free bars. We tried some other flavors, but they weren't much better. I would rather have had my money back."
179254,1,the machine is defective,"the machine is defective, as it gets hot the top coffee container pops open and the coffee spills all over the counter.I will never purchase another product like this on line"
179284,1,Do Not Buy TEAC,Purchased unit for Christmas LED is now unreadable. Called TEAC impossible to get a human on the phone. Sytem hangs up on you when all lines are busy. Called the recomended service centers. Both no longer service the product. Do not waste your money on this product.
179286,1,Freedom Spot On for Dogs,This stuff works for a week and then watch out!!!!! Your dog will have flea's and tick really bad.
179353,1,Not in a day or less,"This book has a lot of good ideas, however, it did not help with training my 3 year old. It requires you to load up your child on liquid so he/she has the urge to go, which is a good idea. However, checking to see if he/she has dry pants every 5 minutes isn't feasible. Your conversation with your child the whole time is supposed to be about going on the potty - however many hours it takes to get them trained. My son got bored with the conversation and didn't pay attention. And once the child gets the whole going on the potty thing, they aren't supposed to tell you when they have to go, they are just supposed to go. The book states that you should put the potty where ever they may be - outside, inside, in their room - so it is easily accessible to them. I would rather have my son come and get me when he has to go.Needless to say, my son is still not potty trained and it's been 3 weeks since we've received this book."
179367,1,not so good,I am very disappointed with graphics. I wish i could read it with my Kindle for Apple Application. I tried Kindle version and decided to stick with a paper one.
179377,1,"""Better"" is the worst enemy of ""best""","Elisabeth George is one of my favourite authors and I've read all her books so far. Nothing needs to be said about her excellent characters, wonderfull language and imaginative plots. This time Elisabeth George tried to do better and ended up with a book that compares very badly to her previous ones. It is too twisted, with an uneccessarily complicated narrative which makes it tiring to read. Our beloved characters play a minor role, the plot suggests that the writer possesses a rather disturbed mind and the end leaves a bitter, sad and hollow aftertaste. Evidently Elisabeth George is a victim of her own success as she tried a new recipe without having the guts (as Grisham did with ""The Painted House"") to entirely abandon the old one. Everyone is allowed a mistake once is a while. I do hope that Elisabeth George gets back on track both for her own and her readers' sake."
179513,1,why would anyone like this movie?,"this movie was so dumb, i cannot believe that I wasted my money renting this... anyone with half a wit can see the ""jokes"" coming from a mile away, the characters are complete stereotypes, i just cannot think of one good thing about this dumb dumb dumb stupid lame film. the only reason i'm writing this review is because i am so dumbfounded by the good reviews that others are giving it; i just have to warn others out there that this is really not worth your time. i can see if you liked ""major league"" that you might like this one, because major league was almost as stupid."
179577,1,Too bad you cant listen to it on your computer.,This CD contains copy protection so that you cannot listen to it on a Mac or a PC.
179594,1,waring blender,"big mistake. cap does not fit tightly. hard to hold plastic jar in position-will not lock. hard to clean, and can not put in dishwasher (try blending soapy water-clean your ceiling next). not worth the money. had a waring for a long time, bought based on prior experience-mistake."
179724,1,Eh...,The item I got doesn't select the cup size appropriately. Very disappointed in the seller's description not mentioning that it didn't work properly.
179765,1,Don't give in to your curiousity.,"I love the band Further - which is the band that Darren and Brent Rademaker formed after Shadowland. So I ordered a used copy of this cd because I was curious about what they had done previously. It's hard for me to write a description of what this sounds like, but I will say this - this cd - at times - sounds like a slightly edgier Nelson. So, not good. Just trying to help you curious Further fans. Don't do it."
179776,1,"The lighst go out, very quickly.","I bought the Polar Express along with some tracks and and this crossing for my four year old. The concept is great and the workmanship is very nice. The only problem, and it is a big one -- The poles come out at the joint even with a slight touch and the connecting wires break and, the lights go out. One could still play the sound but the repair of the wires is impossible because the way they are made. All in all, it is not worth the $60 that I spent."
179786,1,SEQUEL TO A VERY BAD MOVIE,"I'm here just to warn you people that this title is the sequel of a TERRIBLE film called rest stop , i sugest you take a look at the product BEFORE you pre order this one in an impulse , i have seen trailers of THIS film and it seems terrible too , and taking in consideration that SEQUELS are generally WORST then the original ..... and the ORIGINAL sucks ........ well , you do the math ."
179833,1,I Had To Return Mine,"I bought mine new, but it looked as if someone had already opened the box by the time I got it. On top of that, the light bulb didn't work and one of the base clamps was bent. I sent it right back for a refund.I thought I would save some money with this particular model (The picture looked good), but I think I'll spend a little more next time and hopefully get something that works."
179864,1,bad for industrial sites,this product works great in a quiet enviroment such as the house. when i tried to use it at work in tanks and around loud equipment it is useless.
179908,1,Huge Disappointment,"I received a DVD that did not play. I contacted the company and nobody got back to me. I wanted to purchase this DVD and asked them to re-send a copy. I heard nothing from the company. I, instead, received a refund in the mail from Amazon in a few days. This is less my postage. I feel that if a vendor does not ship what was ordered, postage should be refunded."
179973,1,waste of moneyt,"DO NOT waste your money on this, you don't need it. I tried every which way on my notebook to charge it and nada. I finally got my flip camcorder charger out and it works perfectly. All the gadgets that they are trying to sell you are a waste of money any old charger will work. I'm calling amazon to get my money back on this useless gadget."
179987,1,Break!,We've bought three of these and they always break. The screw between the base and the upright strips or something and it wobbles like a sailor after two pints of rum.Boo.
180033,1,Smaller than a slice of bacon,Decent product if you're looking for something to dress up the kitchen but way too small to be of much effect actually pressing full size bacon. This is more like a item you would pick up at a Cracker Barrel souvenir stand.
180211,1,Just Because it Sounds Old Doesn't Mean it is Any Good,"Some of the most boring guitar riffs that only a hardcore band could bring you. This record also has some of the most bland and untalented vocalist in popular hardcore. Andy (the singer) was probably a gas station attendent before he joined a band. You want old School buy Agnostic Front. If you want politics, read the New York Times or buy a good book. If you want talent, listen to Bach. But for the sake of somthing admirable, don't buy this. These guys play like they are 14."
180216,1,80'S GLORIOUS CASIO KEYBOARD SOUND RULE'S DUUUDE! NOT!!!!!!,"LYRIC'S GOOD MUSIC, BAAAAD!!John Fogerty fall's prey to the worst of what the 'EIGHTIES' music scene had to offer!CLICHED' DRIVEL!"
180231,1,Disappointing,"I love Seventh Heaven, so it is with a heavy heart that I say this season was a dissapointment. It seems like all the good actors left so they start filling the season with fill ins. Peter is annoying and so is his mom Paris. Seventh Heaven is great through the sixth season, the seventh and eighth seasons I wish I had not bought. But the ninth season is better comparatively. I just wish Peter would go away."
180263,1,Not My Favorite,"I love John Irving's novels (it's hard not to isn't it) but I have to say that this is one of his worst. It doesn't seem to have the imagination, or spark, of his previous works. He is one of our greatest novelists but cannot be expected to turn out genius every time. If you haven't read much of him try earlier works first."
180349,1,broken,"I was anticipating the use of wireless headphones with my ipod and looked forward to the new technology, howver, after several frustrating hours I determined that the naviPlay system was flawed in that there was something not connected internally as a rattle was heard from the interioir. The item was returned.I did enjoy the experience of purchasing from Amazon.com from beginning to end and will use their service again."
180350,1,Nothing New,"This is Huff's 3rd edition of the book. The first one published in 1990 included cutting-edge research and was really great!! The second edition was not as good (since it did not offer too much cutting-edge knowledge) but had some great informative studies. The third edition is by far, the worst. Most of the 18 chapters are literature reviews and offer nothing significant to our knowledge of gangs. If there is a 4th edition published, I hope to see qualitative or quantitative empirical research and by different authors NOT included in editions 1 through 3."
180368,1,Carousel Accompaniment,"I am disappointed in this product.I was expecting original versions. There are lines cut and the music is rearranged to shorten the scenes.Also, the editing is strange. I thought my CD was damaged.I wouldn't have wasted the money if I had known the versions were adjusted from the original score. Boo!"
180389,1,Not so good,I think Italian for dummies is more of a course for tourists rather than someone who wants to learn it. It lacks Grammatical explanations. I was dissatisfied.
180409,1,"Look for another way to ""reinvent"" your kitchen","I was expecting this book to have some instructions or tips for remodeling a kitchen, or advice about different gadgets I could install, or show decorative objects I could display, but it is mostly a book on instructions for cutesy little projects. However, unlike the other reviewers, I was neither charmed or nor inspired. These are projects you can find in most other non-kitchen books on interior decoration. If the photos were great, that would make up for the lack of substantive information, but they are not. My recommendation is to skip this book."
180484,1,A big dissapointment,"I fell in love with his ""ESCM"" album which was truly a masterpeace, even his first album was good, but this is far from trance music. Here we have fillers and songs that are just too far away from trance as possible like ""Madskillz"" and ""Never gonna come back down"" Only a few songs are good actually ""Dreaming"" ""Goodspeed"" and ""Mercury and solance"", those are also following the old style of enjoyable quality trance. I don't know why he decided to go commercial and change something succesful to the worse. This album only get's 2 stars and that's because it's not what i want to hear when i check for dream dance in the store."
180547,1,Defective,The caller ID box I received was defective. I'm not sure if the defective ones keep getting returned and resold but the product I received did not work with the batteries I had. So I thought the batteries might be bad although they worked in other products. The new batteries I bought were installed correctly as the direction marked but the screen was still blank. I even tried calling my number to see if that would turn the screen on but nothing happened. So I am returning the product to Amazon and hope they don't try to sell it to anyone else.
180571,1,Misleading title,"The title of the book is completely misleading. Actually the book vacillates between a mechanic description of kabbalah tree, an interpretation of a painting, Jewish alphabet and various religious points of view. At the end, the reader is left with some information which by no means will lead him/her to an inner balance. This is a purely theoretic book and has nothing to do with spiritual growth."
180675,1,Terrible book.,"Don't bother reading this one - bought it, read it, regret I wasted time and money. Forget this guy."
180701,1,and don't buy this one either,See the review for CD of Shakespeare Musick (Musicians of the Globe). My nonreturnablecopies will donated to my local library. Don't decide to buy this product unless you'veheard the entire CD.
180707,1,touching spirit bear,"touching spirit bear was one of my most favorite books in all times.cole matthews,peter driscal,and garvey are the main characters.what happens is cole has the potential to beat up peter,and has to go to an island in southeast alaska. if you want to find out how this wonderful book ends you will have to read it.trust me you will love it."
180713,1,ghastly,"BARRY MANILOW meets the BACKSTREET BOYS with a mediocre guitarist. Cheesy songs, even cheesier lyrics and not one redeeming feature. Sets the benchmark for dross in my 700+ collection. It could be used as a coaster, so it is not entirely useless."
180783,1,Useless,"I have found no benefit to this item. I have taken religiously for a few weeks and no inches loss, no added energy, no weight loss! I am maintaining a healthy diet and have begun an exercise routine and this product has done nothing! Very disappointed!"
180886,1,? no voice(s),I was looking for the soulful side of shiela E...thinking she would be singing...I found out wrong
180904,1,could have been great,this is a very funny movie and it could have been a great family movie but the language is unacceptible.language is why i gave it a lower score
181053,1,Poor Structural Design,"Since buying this item, it has probably been used less than twenty times for drying boots. It works OK as a dryer, if you are very careful and/or don't put heavy boots on it.The base on this unit is two-piece (to allow shipping in a smaller box). The two plastic pieces are dovetailed together with insufficient reinforcement or gusseting, and the base broke on both sides where the pieces were joined. This is a very poor design.If you do buy it or already own it, I would suggest sanding the edges of the base where they meet, and thoroughly epoxying it together. I couldn't find any epoxy, so I used five layers of aluminum tape over the joints.I would not have bought this model if I knew it would break in normal use; and, I would look carefully at how the base joins, if you consider another model with a two-piece base."
181124,1,A complete disapointment!!,"This CD is extremely disapointing. The only reason I gave it two stars instead of one is because Wes is still great.Here is my personal opinion on a few of the songs:Hot Dog: This song is completely immature! All Fred Durst does is say ""f*ck"" over 45 times. An excrept: ""It's a f*cked up world, it's a f*cked up place, everybody's judged by their f*cked up face..."" And that's pretty much it for 3 minutes and 50 seconds.Full Nelson: Another ridiculous song. Fred finally realizes what a loser he is (""Why's everybody always picking one me?"" he whines.) He then quickly becomes aggressive and boasts that he could beat anyone up.Rollin' (air raid vehicle): The only word that pops into my mind is...EMBARRASSING! First Fred Durst repeats ""Rollin', rollin', rollin',"" about ten times. Then he says proudly ""You can't mess with Limp Bizkit!""Save your money, folks!"
181129,1,Overrated..not best work,"When I heard of Limp Bizkit recording the next CD a couple of months before the release, I was excited about what it would sound like. I then heard the two singles released and seen the video on MTV (Rollin' and My Generation).. I have come to a conclusion that these are the best songs on the album.Anyways, after buying the CD, I literally was ""burned out"" on it only a couple of weeks later. In my opinion, I think that this album was more quickly put together with less effort then the first two albums. Plus, I think that it can become very tiring, very quickly. I cannot stand to listen to Rollin' anymore!!Before spending 20 bucks of your hard earned money on this album, I say, buy the first two CD's, and just download both versions of Rollin' and My generation and you will have Limp Bizkit's best work.(A little hint that the album was just put together quickly, they included the Mission Impossible theme which had already been released on that movie soundtrack.)"
181189,1,Drying,"I didn't get a shine from this product but it did dry my hair out severely. It's mostly alcohol so it's no wonder my hair felt like straw and seemed brittle, I won't use it again."
181261,1,Like DNA - information interspersed with meaningless junk,"Writing as a layperson (and therefore with the risk of missing the subtleties of the book) it seems to me that the book not so much about the algorithm per se as about mathematical logic, which made the algorithm a such general and powerful tool in the present day.The book contains a brief, but useful overview of the development of mathematical logic. Unfortunately it also contains a lot of irrelevant junk which add nothing to your understanding of the subject matter, such as recreations (or more likely) inventions of banal events in the lives of key figures and episodes from the author's romantic life and an ambiguous and mildly disturbing description of an encounter with two Swedish teenagers in a park."
181292,1,Curriculum and Methodology VERY outdated,"I was forced to teach high school Japanese using this textbook for seven years. Both I and my students were unimpressed with the heavy emphasis on its audiolingual methodology. I had to supplement with my own materials for culture and kana/kanji writing. The entire book centers around grammar, not useful Japanese. The current ACTFL proficiency guidelines and National Foreign Language standards now stress task-based curricula used with a more modern teaching methodology that incorporates real-life situations and materials. The book does contain some weird Japanese that is only there to fit the grammar point. The videos are old and the sound quality is bad. If you want good, current Japanese that also includes culture (NONE in the Jorden method!) notes, go with anything put out by the publishers of the Nihongo Journal (ALC Press). No textbook these days is entirely in roomaji either. I gave this book one star for its usefulness as a grammar guide."
181396,1,overpriced & poorly made,"Paid 29.00 for this product & at an outlet mall (a corningware store) I checked the price for comparision purposes & it was 19.99 Additionally,one of the 2 kettles I putchased leaked like a sieve. Poorly made in China. Won't purchase from this vendor again."
181399,1,Two Tea Kettles Later,"I purchased the Revere because of its name and because I had good service from my old Revere tea kettle. First new purchase - there was a leak in the seam between the pot and the copper base. Amazon graciously accepted the defective product and sent me a replacement. I filled the pot with water, set it on the stove and heated it up. Unbelievable! It leaked in the exact same place as the returned product. Yes, Amazon accepted this one but I did not want a replacement. I'll find a tea kettle manufacturer whos product doesn't leak. Revere is no longer a household name at my house. Maybe customers would pay Revere more $$$ if its products are made in the U.S.A. and had REAL quality.[Revere 3-1/2-Quart Copper Bottom Teakettle"
181539,1,Multicode wireless keypad from Sanford and Son,I received the keypad and installed it. It is a side business of mine to keep several automatic gates operating and have done this many times. The keypad has a problem with the wires to the battery it only works if you push up on the red wire while the battery is out. It is a sealed unit and I cannot get into it to repair a new item. Seems like a long process to get it returned in the mean time I have an unhappy customer.
181561,1,"Critics, like most of this album, suck","""Only Shallow"" and ""Sometimes""... those two songs are great, and they are example of what this album SHOULD'VE sounded like. Instead, we get 9 other tracks of buzzsaw guitars and ungodly feedback. In fact, the feedback is so irritating, suffocating, and unsexual that it makes JAMC's ""Psychocandy"" sound like a gentle lullaby. I don't know how they got $500,000 to make this album... I could make this entire record if I just got drunk enough to want to stand next to my amps and play power-chords. ""Loveless"" isn't an awful album, and the ideas are there, but they're not executed at all. If this was the band's vision of perfect than it should be no wonder why they haven't made another album in 16 years. This is just another example of the media hype-machine and spineless critics who either want too much to be different/unique, or are too afraid to form an opinion of their own. MBV should take a class taught by Mogwai or Sonic Youth, the real engineers of sounds."
181643,1,A triumph of mediocrity and shallow delivery,"I am sorry if I disappoint Robin's fans, but it seems those who like him as an actor somehow find it difficult to judge his stand-up act objectively. The truth is, writing is only average and Robin Williams' delivery is very one-dimentional. It is.Do not confuse his fast talking and sizzling on stage with comedy talent. Good stand up takes more, much more than very fast speech. He is a famous actor and all that, but so what? As comedian, he is not in the same league with the big boys.Robin Williams struggles to get out of the beaten track of his acting (and occasionally succeeds); in his stand-up exercise, it's just the beaten track and nothing else.Triumph of mediocrity, really: but then there are people who may like it (oh, and judging by the number of NOT HELPFUL comments that my previous reviews of Williams got, these are people a bit on the angry side, too...)"
181647,1,inside electric light orchestra 1970-73,disappointed. expected more performances with the band. not what i expected. wish i could get my money back.
181681,1,Ugh!! Too small,My son said to me that this swing is more for decoration and not for sitting! I totally agree. The seat is too narrow and the back is too short. No sleepy afternoons on this swing.
181702,1,Depressing,"I have to say the only redeeming quality of this book is the interesting way Connelly weaves together the disparate stories of his characters and brings them into contact with one another in circumstantial events. But yet the story was so intensely depressing. Does anything good happen even in such a crummy town? Truthfully his characters should all be on Prozac or just commit suicide, then burn the town down too. Not that I'm into wanting a happy end to every story, its just that the bad that happens to these people is just so pitifully stupid and repetative."
181791,1,Don't Waste your Money,I have had several indoor outdoor thermometers and this isn't worth your time or money. Clock never was correct no matter how many times I would set it. The outdoor temps only showed for about 2 or 3 days then quit altogether.
181848,1,"Clumsy, awkard, off","I'm a Kathy Smith fan, and she's a talented instructor I've stayed with for 6 years, so I forgive her for making this video - it's terrible. There's absolutely zero to recommend it: Kathy's clothing is incongruent to the atmosphere; the tape is unenergetic, zero cardio; the camera doesn't show their feet, and worst of all they are in this ugly looking club and there are so many people dancing that Kathy has to modify her steps or be crushed in the crowd -- they are truly packed in there like sardines! The whole tape is an uncomfortable experience.Kathy is a fabulous cream-of-the crop instructor, so try her other DVDs, but don't spend your $$ on this."
181868,1,Hard to stay captivated,"This is the worst book I have ever read in my life. I have yet to completely finish the book, I can't bear to pick it up and continue. It is poorly written, and the chapters skip around so much I found myself going back and rereading ( if I could find them ) certain parts to stay abreast of the topic.If you like reading fiction written by 12 year olds, you will thoroughly enjoy this book. Otherwise, I wouldn't even waste a trip to the library to check it out!!"
181890,1,Arrogant and Disappointingly Simple,"He offers some speculating advice and that's about it! The rest of the information is very basic knowledge and about education services he provides which can be bought for a fee. The author appeared quite arrogant throughout, even going as far to name the standard real estate cycle after himself! There were a lot of ""I did this!"" and ""I did that!"" and ""I'm so wonderful to help people!"" This book is not worth your time, unless you enjoy reading the advertisement section of the newspaper, only without the fancy pictures and print."
181913,1,Wow this is bad,"This is a really, really bad book. The prose is so bloated one wonders whether Alex had any editing at all. Considering the clout that she and her husband wield, it's no surprise that she got this clunker published, but she definitely should have picked up Elements of Style and learned that less is indeed more. This woman uses enough adverbs to wear out both the reader and the 'l' and 'y' keys on a standard computer keyboard. Don't believe the comparisons to Bridget Jones etc. This is turgid, turgid stuff. The Anna Kournikova of fem. lit. If i were any of the other female writers out there struggling to put out my stuff, I don't know whether I would poo or go blind when I realized that this novel made it to the shelves."
181946,1,Unfortunately a waste of time and money.,"I was trying to save money, and this boot assembled very well, but it only stayed on the CV Joint end for a few days. I've been an auto and aircraft mechanic and installed the bands around the ends very tightly with perfectly clean surfaces, but the boot is too stiff to flex properly.After spending $24 for the boot, I spent $75 for a new axle (Honda Accord) and installed it, which took the same amount of time as putting on the boot.Nice idea, very poor product."
181979,1,The Basket,"Only two words can aptly describe ""The Basket""--- Painfully Horrible. Don't waste your time on the ""Waste Basket."" I can't believe a made for TV movie(with a Sunday at 3am airtime) actually made it to DVD. What a waste of good technology on a piece of garbage (. . .)"
181993,1,Sucks,"Item took twice as long as stated to arrive, and doesn't work. I guess that's the gamble on cheapo items. Don't buy"
182012,1,Arrived NOT working.,"It arrived in the correct amount of time. The first time I tried to use it in my car it does not work. The little red light lights up but no power is passed to the USB ports. I plugged my phone charger into it and Zilch, Zero, Nada. No power coming through either USB port. It is too inexpensive (cheap) to send back so I guess its a paperweight. My bad for thinking I could buy an inexpensive device such as this to have one in the car for conviennience (sp). Its junk."
182040,1,More garbage than good advice.,I was very dissappointed with this book. I had hoped to get pearls of wisdom that I could share with graduates. There were a few gems but it was like looking for diamonds in a swamp.
182046,1,Save your money for something better,"This is a book only 138 pages. From the beginning to end, all he does was to show off his Excel tricks. Virtually nothing for construction or estimating. If you want to know how to do this or that in Excel, why not ""google"" up some tips? (Online tips are always free)I purchased it, finished the book within a few hours, and came out with nothing. It came with a CD, but the purpose was to promote the author's estimating software, which is based on Excel but asking for $500. This is not cool...This book is not worth $35 I paid for. I heard from a friend that DeWalt Estimating series is adding a new book on spreadsheet estimating. I like their books better. Would look forward to new book and compare. But I really doubt any other book will be worse than this one..."
182047,1,bad recommendation,Can't stand it- don't want it. PLEASE remove from my recommendation list!!The Tomorrow Show With Tom Snyder
182128,1,2 stars for the price,"Really good for listening audio books, unfortunately nothing else. Bought me 2 pairs for a trip. Both are absolutely the same in quality. 2 stars just for the price and a cute case they comes with ;)"
182135,1,Not that good in quality,"I used to regularly buy wild oats raisins and they were the best in taste and quality. I tried Spicy World black raisins hoping it wouldn't be that different. But when you eat these, you will get the feeling that the raisins have been dipped and coated in sugar. I have heard that as raisins get stale and lose their freshness, they get the sugary feel and taste and that's what I experienced with these raisins. If you really want good quality raisins, go with something else."
182142,1,A complete insult.,"Hellworld is the film that killed my long-spanning interest in the franchise for over seven years. It not only manages to rank among some of the worst films I've ever seen in my life, but it also throws away the Hellraiser mythology, and completely insult the fans in the process by making them look like a bunch of moronic horny teenagers."
182181,1,Would give 0 stars if I could... HATE THIS COMPANY,"In good faith I bought Novastor. 6 months into it, I upgraded my computer to a Windows 8. Couldn't get my software installed on the new machine for some crazy reason only to discover that my Novastor version is not compatible with Win8.To fix it, I have to PAY Novastor for an upgrade. SHAME ON YOU NOVASTOR. Disgusting ethics and disappointing policies."
182306,1,Awful,"Must be my taste buds as other reviews says it's great. I think it is awful but my dog ate it. I do see one review that says mom doctors it up with sour cream. Might improve it. If this is better than Annie's, I would hate to taste Annie's."
182326,1,Pass on This One,"Positive: large easy-to-read digital numerals, acceptable radio/sound quality for the price.Negative: Markedly inferior sensitvity to the radio signal emanating from Colorado---often was unable to ""get it"" even when my other atomic clocks easily received the signal."
182398,1,Horible Product,The item arrived with loose wiring in terminal ends. Upon plugging the item in to factory harness it introduced static into the system then promptly shorted out several fuses on the panel this event locted my stereo into a safe protect mode which I had to get unlocked. I do not reccommend this item. Consider replacing your factory unit with aftermarket and doing it the right way before wasting your money here.
182448,1,Newbies Beware,"I will start by saying that I am by no means an experienced programmer. In just starting out, I wanted a book that would show me some sample programs that I could use to ""learn by doing"". With the C++ Cookbook, I was very disappointed by the overuse of programming vocabulary without any explanation or definitions. This book is definitely organized for more experienced minds with specific development problems in their paths. It is NOT for anyone just getting into programming. Maybe if you've tried other languages and want to step into C++, this could be helpful. Regardless, I still have a little bit of a problem with how they present the different builders and compilers. They give a great many options but if you're not familiar with them, they don't give much direction on how to use them.To be clear: stay away if this is your first foray into computer programming."
182458,1,very disappointed,I'm not sure why this sells so well on Amazon. It's sticky and leave my hair feeling stiff. Definitely won't buy again.
182466,1,A Dull Disappointment,"The idea of this novel is intriguing but the author's execution of it is not. He was not able to develop any genuiness in the characters and his descriptions of Paris were unconvincing. He throws in some $10 words for effect but that just detracts from an already dry, clumsy and artifical story.If you must, then get it from the library. I wish I could get my money back. Another nicely packaged, back cover hyped disappointment.PSI notice one reviewer calls this book ""masterful."" I find that astounding. To me, it was more like something written by an over-ambitious, under-talented high school student."
182541,1,buble blows,"no sense of authenticity here, I don't believe him for a second when he sings these lyrics . . . truly unbelievable. His sense of pitch, phrasing, and swing are not impeccable, not natural.... i don't get why some love his kid . . . they must have never heard the real deal"
182555,1,Please Do Not Buy This Game,WARNING: DO NOT BUY THIS GAME.It contains a bug in the middle levels that freezes the game everytime you play. This is crap CRAP CRAP!! Please don't buy this game for the sake of humanity and excellent games. Spit on it!!
182570,1,Sometimes it's better to forget,"This book mainly collects a number of Crowley's letters written to Kenneth Grant from the end of 1944 till spring 1946 Common Era. Grant adds a few explanatory remarks here and there. The book is large (approximately A4), but only some 70 pages thick, and space isn't used very economically. It definitely isn't worth the price. There are a few interesting thought and a few interesting pictures, but all in all it doesn't deliver what is promised. It only gives a sketchy impression of what went on between Crowley and Grant, who was 20 years old in 1944.The letters are mostly demands from Crowley, e.g. telling Grant to get him whiskey or tobacco, which were scarce due to the war. Grant is promised a position in the British OTO if he does his chores, but he doesn't obey the Master. It's all too trivial to be of interest to anyone but the Crowley fetishist."
182583,1,Disappointing,"I felt that the structure of the book and the subject matter - a group of interesting and diverse women coming together telling their story, individually, chapter by chapter, was very promising & would make an interesting novel - not so. The characters were all stereotypes & I found the character development completely shallow & forced, in fact I wouldn't call the changes the women went through character development at all, the changes were abrupt, predicatable & convenient - really galled me as a reader. The author didn't make me care about the characters at all & I can barely even remember their names! I also felt that the plot was extremely weak - especially Faith's story, which was contrived & formulaic. I thought I would love this book, but I was disappointed."
182676,1,LAME,"Do not buy this book. Unless you need to be able to laugh about your inability to ""talk dirty"" with your partner. This book was a complete and total waste of time and money."
182759,1,Sad to give a negative review.,"I was really looking forward to watching ""Till the Clouds Roll By"", but the sound quality is wretched. How disapointing! The story itself is pleasant and the staging of the musical numbers would have been such a treat if it weren't for the awful sound track.The audio for ""Stage Door Canteen"" was a little better, and the story line was mildly engaging."
182782,1,cheap trash,Not worth $1.99. I am shocked at Amazon and the less than LOW quality of this item. It wont last a week. My son has one he paid 9.99 for that is metal and wood and holds much more. What garbage this thing is
182790,1,Clubs broke,"After only one or two uses, the heads of the clubs began breaking off from the shafts, rending themselves completely useless. I'm very disappointed as I have another set of Cougar clubs that has performed well for the past 2 years. I would not recommend buying this set of clubs."
182901,1,"Basic information, poor organization, useless index","This book is a descent resource of basic information; that is, if you can find it. That's the most frustrating thing about this book is that it suffers from poor organization and a horrible index that follows it's own inexplicable logic.E-mail links? No listing in the index. Same for such basic terms as: pop-up windows, navigation, browser windows, publishing, windows, importing, and printing. It was easier and less frustrating to flip through the entire book than to try to figure out the logic of the index.If you chance on some information that you may need, put a placeholder or a stickynote there immediately; you may never find it again."
182924,1,poor quality,I was hoping to find the cups that go with the immersion blender. These are so flimsy I sent them back.
182947,1,This book sucks!,"This book is the most boring piece of trash I've read in a long time. The vocbulary is limited and the scope so narrow the story has virtually no meaning. It reads like a jaded, molested, sixteen year old boys fantasies. None of this is ""disgusting"" or ""disturbing"", its just stupid. There is no reason for any of the characters to act the way they do, nor does the story give any cause for the circumstance through which they endure. I want the fourty-five minutes it took to read back so I can waste them watching my socks dry.If Hell on Earth is your game, check out Barker's ""Down Satan!"" (which is where White ripped the idea off for this book I'm sure). If you want something honestly unsettleing, pick up James Havoc and enjoy.Don't waste your money on this waste of trees, I'll give you mine."
183019,1,Packaging,"Very poor quality packaging, box was all but destroyed.Cardboard is not heavy enough, no metal staples, just tape. This was the second box I received like that, parts missing."
183045,1,Satan. What a funny name for a cat.,"After having read the book's synopsis, I thought that it sounded terrifying . . . BUT ALL WASN'T AS IT SEEMED!! I hate Ms Michaels for misleading me to believe that the book was scary. I would hardly call a FEW ODD MOMENTS scary. Please fellow readers, don't read this book if you're looking for something frightening, rather read it if you want to witness how a newly disabled brother (Jim) copes and relates with his overprotective sister (Andrea) and a newly found friend (Martin). If there was anything I liked about the story, it would have to be the constant bickering between Andrea and Martin.And Jim's verbal lash-outs at Andrea just adds to the turmoil of the story."
183112,1,Looks better in pictures,"Cant speak to how it sounds because I couldnt get past the looks. The cheap plastic chrome stem and shiny braided wire cover dont look good nor real. Also beware this is the non amplified version (NOS8) so dont expect an NOS8A (amplified). It it BIG, but only requires a few inches from the speaker to work properly which should make it easy to install. The retaining straps are black plastic and thin metal."
183207,1,oh boy oh boy,"This is a boy's story, and it's rather boring. It's only a boy's daydreaming. The writing style is so old-fashioned. Anyone serious about reading will hate this book."
183267,1,Should get a ZERO!!!!,Don't buy this company's products....They SUCK!!!!!Pick from a more competent company to do business with.Unsuspecting buyers avoid this company at all costs because I have NEVER seenthis level of incompetence with a company. It's the customers that allow themto exist ....but they seem to forget that most important concept.
183292,1,Pales Next to Spenser!,"As an avid fan of the genre, I began this book with high hopes that ended in disappointment. Never before have I seen such a derivative work like this. So derivative, it borders on outright plagiarism! Mr. Crais is obviously intimately familiar with the works of the venerable Robert B. Parker; however, in this case, imitation is NOT flattering at all."
183299,1,Very uncomfortable for the kids,"There is little back support for the kids; they are essentially sitting in a sling/hammock that folds them in half. It is positioned so they are sitting very upright so when they fall asleep their heads crook way over - makes me worried about their airway (I am a physician). The other downside is that it doesn't roll straight when used as a jogging stroller, and when used as a trailer it says it is not safe to use over 10MPH. Ahem... That is barely a roll, and they made no mention of this when I was purchasing it. I hope I can sell it on Criags list"
183348,1,This is ridiculous,"This album will soon be on sale for $1 in bins at truck stops across the county, so save your money. The rapping in really bad. It sounds like an after school special. There is no flow. She should have gone to ""Ice-T's Rap School."" Her voice is just plain annoying.Stick with the posing, sister."
183425,1,What a waste of my time!!,"after reading about the sige of Stalingrad, I wanted to learn more about the soviet leader of that time. This book is nothing more than quotes and references to other books that the author must assume that we have all read before. It is a pompass book that has very little insight into Joseph Stalin. you will learn no hidden facts or secrets about him. I wouldn't bother giving this book away."
183533,1,Couldn't get past step one!!!,I bought this stroller and couldn't even open it! I brought into a popular baby store that carried it to see if they could show me how...to no avail. They were kind enough to take that one and give me one from their stock...but that one had the same problem. I gave up and did not try again. Unfortunate b/c the 14lb weight was sooo appealing!
183581,1,didn't like it,"I didn't like this book very much, it skipped around way too much! I chose to read it because I thought it would be a lot more like the ancient indians were, roaming the plains and all, but instead, it was more sexual than anything. It reminded me of a soap opera, and it had no point! Why couldn't she put the years in chronological order? It was very confusing!! And maybe if the chapters were a little shorter. My attention span didn't keep with the storyline, which was almost non-existant. What exactly was the book trying to prove or teach us? It's obviously Ms. Power's first book!"
183582,1,nordic ware tender cooker: caveat emptor,"I bought this tender cooker and never realized that it easily explodes in the microwave, sending water throughout...it fried the electrical circuits on my expensive over the range microwave and now i have to get a new microwave.....please people, be careful...i will never use this item again."
183610,1,TERRIBLE!!!!!,This has to be the worst gate on the market! My 13 month old son opens it by leaning on it. He pulled on the gate yesterday and broke it off the hinges.DO NOT BUY!!!!!
183665,1,Save your money!,"This gate is just plain bad. It is semi-high so unless you have really long legs, it's a pain in the butt to step over. Plus, when you DO step over, the metal clip is right there and it ""bites"" your skin. I am 5'6"" so not on the short side... and I still had problems.It took me numerous tries to get it to lock to the wall correctly. It was either too loose and fell over or too tight. It really is made very poorly. Ours has since been returned..."
183680,1,A Rather Negative Look at Motherhood,"I've read lots of pregnancy books, and this book came recommended as an ""honest"" view. It may be honest, but very negative!I realize that motherhood isn't usually the fairytale many of us hope it will be, but this book just dwelled on the negatives: sometimes you can't figure out breastfeeding, sometimes you worry that your husband might leave you, sometimes the baby won't stop crying....Hopefully there are more books out there that are more evenly balanced with ""real life"" stories. I recommend that you keep looking."
183683,1,not much on Czech horn players,"I purchased this book specifically to retrieve information on Czech horn players. It was empty of anything related to this topic, though there certainly are many biographies of other musicians from Czech regions."
183724,1,FYI: This is NOT from the band Tonic (Lemon Parade / Sugar / Head on Straight),"Even though this CD will show up when searching for music by the band Tonic, this CD is from a Japanese fellow called ""THE Tonic"". Just a word to the wise..."
183888,1,ANNOYED!!!,[[ASIN:B000TGH0DK Southern Belle Adult CostumeI placed an order for this dress on Oct. 23. Sure i know it's cutting it kind of close but estimated time of arrival was the 28th so i didn't do the expedited delivery. BIG MISTAKE!!! They didn't ship it from their office til Oct. 28!!! So i'mlooking at having all the accessories I bought to go along with them but no dress!!! So my opinion of the Zoogster costume company needs a good month it seems to ship your orders on time so beware people!!!!
183961,1,Ok For What It Was,"If you're looking for a quick, erotic read with not a whole lot of intelligence or substance, just a lot of hot guys who need a lot of hot sex and a lot of desperate women willing to give it to them...this is a good read. If you're looking for something any more in depth than that, you won't find it here. This is basically the same kind of erotic story you can find in any number of books all over the internet. I can't really say the writing was anything special. It was a typical erotic fantasy romance. Nothing more. If you don't mind that, this can help pass the hours fairly enjoyably."
183986,1,One of the more boring Disney films I've ever seen.,"I am a big Disney film fan, animated or live-action. But this film, 1963's ""The Incredible Journey"" just didn't cut it. During most of the film, there is almost no dialogue except for a boring narration of the story by Rex Allen. I liked the remake, 1993's ""Homeward Bound"", much better because it had human actors doing the voices of the animals. They gave the story a lot more spark, spice, action, and adventure, as well as a lot of humor. I believe that an adventure story with animals needs a lot of action and humor, especially in the case of ""The Incredible Journey"". Unfortunately, this 1963 Disney adventure has virtually no action or humor or even adventure; it's pretty much an extended version of Walt Disney's True-Life nature documentaries he made during the 1950's."
184064,1,Bof...,It's very only basics. First year graduate school level and useless for a real specialist. But can be interesting for someone who wants just an overwiev.
184114,1,Not bad but nowhere near good,It was just to long and boring. I had to read it in school and I just wouldn't recomend this book to ANYONE! Try J.R.R. tolkien or brian jacques for something worth reading.
184140,1,"Great Idea, Poor Quality/Design","I got this for my son's 2nd birthday. He loves all things Elmo, and airplanes, so it was the perfect toy that combined both his loves. The toy itself is okay, but within the first day after opening his gift, the propeller stopped working. in fact, any moving parts stopped working altogether. Now he just rides around in it, and pushes buttons for sounds. The wings fold up, though, so it is more compact for storing. Also, he likes the underseat storage.The reason I am giving it less than 3 stars is the fact that, as other reviewers have pointed out, it tips fairly easy. However, he is a bit older/bigger than the ideal for this toy, so he is able to prevent most of the falls. Though, he has fallen once or twice.A bit overpriced for a ride-on that doesn't work properly, but he still likes it because it is Elmo, and it is an airplane. I am just disappointed in the poor construction and the even poorer design."
184147,1,You're better off with an extendable shoe rack you can put on the floor,"I bought two of these for my Deluxe Closet System, but returned them immediately. These take up a lot of vertical space from the system, and the system is designed to be set up at a certain heigth, so you loose space below the lowest rack.The closet we configured allowed us to have a separate, longer shoe rack put on the floor, with two racks. We have 12 shoe pairs below the closet.Alas, since it all depends on the configuration of your closet, you might find them useful. The beauty of the closet system is that you can tailor it to your needs... The drawback is that you only have so much ""rail"" space, and I found it more useful to have a rack or a basket accessory than shoes. By the way, rail extensions can be bought here too, which is great."
184309,1,Mediocre black comedy from Robert Englund,"Actor Robert Englund directs this cheesy,low budget black comedy about a number 976-EVIL that possesses a nerd to have powers and then he kills people,while his cousin is making trouble. The movie is often confusing and sometimes gets tedious but the funny parts come from when the nerd named Hoax wants to be like his cousin and has a scooter and puts a engine and calls it his motorcycle and when the fish fall from the sky. Kevin Yagher's special effects are average and the acting is uneven. Not the worst horror movie but not the best either. Englund quit directing after this,Go figure"
184370,1,Disappointment,Received a call from customer services after I ordered the part asking if i had the 'knowledge' to replace the part. I did. BUT it wasn't as easy as one would think. So ask for instructions if there are any.The assembly still leaked and the blade doesn't rotate. Off to Target for two blenders for the price of the replacement jar.
184402,1,Great While it Lasted!,"I really liked the look of this unit and the price was not bad. No issues related to usage, until the buttons on the face and the remote ceased to work. Tried to reset it with no luck. Now I have a DVD stuck in it and they want $70 to fix it. It is just over the 90 day warranty. How nice. I would think twice before pruchasing any other LG products. They were not willing to make any exceptions for the 90 days. After reading other forums on this model, I really question LG's committment to their customers. I will enjoy my time smashing it with a baseball bat!"
184446,1,Booooring,"It's like a 90-minute screensaver with bad music. Yeah, for a few minutes you're thinking, ""Wow, how did they get that shot,"" and there are a few really funny moments, but how many shots of birds flying can you watch.The music is really annoying; it sounds like they ... some poor boy to get the vocals.And the narrator has a really jarring French accent: ..."
184468,1,Escape Claws,We have a 4 month old Maltipoo and it took her about a week to learn to climb out of this.
184536,1,There are better choices,"I thought I would give the Microsoft Trackball Optical a try. I had enough in about twenty minutes. So I silently suffered, and kept using it to give it a fair shake. The ball seemed to have a weird movement. Not very precise. The mouse is well built, however. The buttons and scroll was quiet. If you are looking for a trackball style mouse there are better choices, like the Tracman Marble+ by Logitec."
184595,1,"A few great songs, a lot of bad hippy songs","Ever since I first heard Tool, I've been hooked on Maynard's work. And several songs on this disc are no exception. For the most part, however, this is a disgusting hippy love fest. Socialist undertones from highly overrated covers like ""Imagine"" overwhelm the album and make me doubt Maynard's motives. ""Sheep to the War Drum"" indeed... it sounds like Perfect Circle is advocating all the irrational garbage liberals have been putting out since the 1960's, just louder. I would definitely recommend the superb Lateralus from Tool or Thirteenth Step from Perfect Circle over this. Also, the disc of new mixes, aMOTION, pretty much rocks, so I'd pick that up too. If you're one of the anti-war, communist, ""peace love and harmony even while Americans are being slaughtered by religious fanatics"" people, you might like this; otherwise, it's pretty disappointing."
184661,1,Another Brochure turned into a book,"Simple stuff. Not that it isn't powerful stuff. It's just that it's a 12-15 page brochure at most, and DE BONO turned it into a 175 page book. Why?I can think of no audience who'd benefit from this book who wouldn't get all they need from a summary of it.If you like reading hundreds of quotes like, ""yeah yeah yeah, let get some of your best red-hat thinking on that"" and ""I heard you, but I would really like you to put some yellow-hat on that"" then this book may be for you.It's so condescending, it calls into question every one of his well-rated books."
184664,1,Would not buy again,"Although this book is very cute and doesn't go overboard recording every move the baby makes, it leaves out important info. There's no place to record gifts/baby showers or visitors to the hospital or home after the baby is born. One reason I rushed to get a book was so I could start recording the baby gifts we're receiving but this book was no help."
184667,1,"Feels like a toy that will not last, does not do the job well either",The setting for spiral spaghetti cut is not tight so it constantly goes to slicing as ribbons- specially is you want to spaghetti from yams or something that is not ultra soft. it is flimsy and does not hold the vegetable in place well either.
184682,1,earth vs the spider,this is one of those films you wait the whole way through and just at the end it climaxes and if you turn away you miss it. I feel the story could have had more if the spiders had escaped once out they grew and hunting man for their prey instead of the direction the film took much like tarantula who was gigantic the picture and audio quality were both excellent too bad the story line lets this film down badly myself i am disappointed in this film i hope this helps other people wayne shepherd
184722,1,Will NOT Fit,this will not cover a CA king mattress and the stretchy fitted part will NO WAY stretch enough to get it on just 2 corners. I have not received my email for the return EITHER.
184774,1,A Story So Simple,"Your five your old child could have wrote it. This is what I don't like about Imax films. They try to tell a story but it is so elementry you wonder what is the purpose. If you can not tell a interesting story why try. Niagra is certainly a beautiful place; but the movie would have been better serve if they went the educational,historical,adventure or eye candy route. Instead we are treated to a story a seconed grader would appreciate at the expense of some beautiful photography."
184854,1,Terrible Taylor Thermometer,"For nearly 30 years, I've used Taylor and other brand thermometers for checking the temperature of baby bird food, which must not be too hot or it will burn their delicate crop tissue - and not too cool to where they won't eat enough. I've only had this waterproof thermometer for about a month and it is already not ""dead"", but constantly ""live"" and won't shut off. It's going back on the slow boat to China. It might still be ON if the battery holds out.As others have noted, it is slow compared to other products and other Taylor digital thermometers.The on button was always hard to depress. The readout was ok...no better than any other. I liked the length of it since it fit good inside a mug that is half full. I pray that we can get back to good quality controlled USA made products. I'm so tired of out-of-country JUNK. I try very hard not to buy Chinese or Mexican products, but it's almost unavoidable. If I can do without them, I do. I thought Taylor was US made. Not so!"
184904,1,Doesn't hold vacuum,The stoppers do not hold the vacuum longer than a few minutes and are therefore worthless. I have used other brands of vacuum stoppers which worked fine. I either got a dud batch or the design or quality are flawed--either way it was a worthless product.
184981,1,"Quality is nice, but there are some issues.","I bought 3 pairs of these cables to make a 6 channel bundle to go from my blu-ray player into the surround processor. The quality seems very nice, and I like the braided covering over the wires.What I don't really like about them is:The ends fit WAY too tight into the RCA connections. I had to be very careful to twist and push them in, because I heard the circuit board cracking on my Rotel RSP-1066 as I connected them."
185011,1,Not worth it.,More effort that using a traditional razor. Not a close shave at all. Wasn't worth my time.
185025,1,The Ideal Bride,This book is so slow that i could not even finish it. Everytimei would try to read it i was so bored that my mind would wonder.I would not recamend this book to anyone. Stephanie Laurens has so many other great books read one of them instead.
185066,1,Uggh! Puppets on both!,"My family loves Caillou, but these DVDs will likely get donated to our local library. There are many cute episodes on these videos, all featuring a younger Caillou and Rosie; unfortunately, interspersed are those annoying puppets that kids seem to hate. Unless you don't mind having the remote in hand, ready to fast forward, I'd skip these DVDs and opt for the newer puppet-less Caillou videos."
185070,1,Horrible book,This book has no plot. It is only introductions about snobby rich women and no story.Do not waste your time.
185245,1,Save your money and your time,"This is possibly one of the poorest written books I've everread. There are too many plot lines and none of them make anysense. The characters are shallow and one-dimensional. It is basically a very silly book. It's not a mystery or a gothic novel, yet it tries to be both. I would recommend that the discerning reader give this book the cold shoulder and find something else, anything else to read."
185295,1,Short range phone,"I've always had Panasonic phones and in general they've been sturdy and made well. This tri-portable phone set is very light weight but has all the basic functions as described. However, other than the main station the remaining two chargers are so light and flimsy as to easily fall off a night table. That's not such a big deal but I wish the bases were weighted down in some way. In any event my only serious concern is the severe distance restriction these phones seem to have. One phone is in my home office right next to the front door yet I cannot take the portable handset more than ten feet out the front door! (My old portable phone worked to the end of the driveway.) In fact, there have been a few times when I have had no signal at all between the base and the handset right at my desk -- a distance of 2.5 ft.! Therefore, I would not recommend this phone as apparently any distance can be a problem."
185298,1,call waiting broke first week,"We purchased this phone and within the first week the call waiting feature broke. You would be on a phone call and when the call waiting beeped in the phone would automatically switch you over mid call. So you would be talking to the 2nd caller without warning and the 1st caller was left in silence wondering what happened. Panasonic customer service was really no help. They told me to unplug and remove the batteries to reset the phones. Didn't work, so I return the phones and purchased a different set of DECT expandable phones. Hopefully we won't have this issue again."
185331,1,Doesn't fit.,I got this wire which took a week to get to me even though they said it would come in 4 days. When I got it I went to put it in my PS2 and it doesn't fit. Despite what the description says.
185383,1,"Depressing, empty movie.","Don't recommend it. It will leave you depressed and wondering why you spent the two hours watching it. You can find a better movie, or something of more value to do with your time."
185396,1,Romeo and Julie,"Malo, malo, malo. Pésima grabacion y calidad sonora, teniendo en cuenta la calidad extraordinaria de los bailarines. No me explico como Amazon puede ofrecer este producto de tan poca calidad visual y musical."
185423,1,yawn and yawn again,"God, I've been waiting for this book.I've enjoyed the Belgariad and Malloreon very much and read the books several times.I liked the quick wit, the humorous exchanges between the characters, and the plot. But ""Polgara"" left me disappointed, rewriting that already twice told long story of what Pol and Belgareth did during 3000 years when noting much of a plot happend, before the actual series (Bel/Mal) started. Just adding the angle of Polgara's perception is definately not enough to salt this journal-of-a-time-of-waiting. It has little entertaining value, and a somewhat shrill lack of those peculiar grins that swept my face reading the Bel/Mal.There is so much more that can be done with the good set of characters the Eddingses created in the Bel/Mal. I do hope they start a NEW plot/series with them."
185481,1,disappointing,"I had the impression that the roller size was bigger on these. It's the attached fasteners that make it look that way in the pictures. I found using them awkward as well, don't care for the way they dangle either."
185539,1,Get Hang On To A Dream: The Verve Recordings Instead,"It has more music and it is now much, much cheaper. (Which is to say that it has this CD plus a whole disc of extras.) You like more for cheaper, don't you?"
185599,1,pretty worthless,"if you want funny buy ween, if you want lo-fi pop buy the vaselines, this stuff is just dull. this is one of those rare albums that finds success because some ""cool"" kid told the rest of his kingdom that this album was good and no one dared question his taste. i couldn't make it through 30 seconds of each song. some other bands are immature and funny, these guys are just immature."
185795,1,Just a huge printed checklist?,If you need a huge checklist and nothing else then this is the book for you. You won't really learn anything from this book and I guess that's not its intent.This is just a huge checklist that you get two copies of. What do I do when I need a third copy? It would be much better if I had an electronic copy of this rather than a book version. If you make copies they will look like crap and you may be breaking the law...wtf?Just make sure you know what your buying. I didn't.
185839,1,Hooker's theology through Booty's eyes,"This book is written from the perspective of one of the great minds of the Episcopal church. No one living has written more about Hooker than Booty. Booty attempts to integrate modernist thought (neo-orthodoxy?) with Hooker's worldview. I think his effort falls short. In all fairness the book is entitled ""Reflections..."" In reality, Booty holds a mirror up to the theology of Hooker and finds his own (Booty's) image.This is a must-have book for those who want the latest from Booty. The rest of us may want to check it out from our seminary library."
185906,1,You Have GOT to Be Kidding Me!,"I got this book for my husband, hoping it would help him to understand and participate in our pregnancy. Instead, it has turned out to be a source of comic relief! That anyone can take this book seriously is laughable. I was amazed to find that it had been updated in the last 10 years, with many references to outdated hospital procedures and research. Not to mention that it simply does not appeal to its target market - recommending men ""cool off"" from frustrating encounters with their pregnant partners by ""writing in a journal"" and other such atypical male behaviors. Men who are that in touch with their partners and themselves should read more informative selections that are not watered down for naive fathers-to-be! All in all, if you need a laugh, this is the book for you. If you are serious about understanding the pregnancy, go for something else, perhaps ""The Birth Partner"" by Penny Simkin."
185998,1,Ninety-year Old Coot Finds True Love,"If this tick of a book had been written by anybody other than a Nobel Prize winner, it wouldn't have been published, nor liked. It's not believable nor is it unbelievable. It just stinks.Some old coot--cold, whore-crazed--wants a night with a virgin. I was hoping she'd wake up at some point and give him what he wanted--and it would kill him right away.So where's the romance with a pedophile?"
186036,1,NLP all over again,Deja vu all over again with this rehash of NLP techniques. Disappointing as it was recommended highly by a colleague.
186055,1,Still Garth,"Not as original as I thought it would be, still sounds like Garth, but the thinner look is nice."
186061,1,Brooks should stick with what he does best...,"I loved Garth's first two albums. But I have watched with dismay as he has sacrificed artistic integrity in his all-consuming quest to overtake the Beatles as the biggest selling recording artist of all time. ""In the Life of Chris Gaines"" is poorly crafted pop music that is instantly forgettable. On one tune he sounds like a pale imitation of Prince, on the next a Backstreet Boys reject. There is not a moment on this recording with an ounce of creativity or passion. All that aside, ""The Life of Chris Gaines"" will no doubt sell 5 million copies, which must be the point of the entire project for Brooks. Who cares what it sounds like, as long as five or six million gullible people fork out 17 dollars for it?"
186073,1,Elevator Music to Hell!!!!!!!!!,"Terrible. This album is terrible. All tracks the same. Terrible take off on the song, the dance. Wow, it's so bad, don't know where to begin. Awful. Simply disgusting, this musician should play different music with his talent. Awful. Terrible. Disgusting. No musician in the world would recomend this album for anything. Disgusting. Little tinkerbell chimes in background of songs. So ridiculously bad it's not even funny. If you buy this. You just wasted some Money. needlessly. I bought it. Terrible mistake. Disgusting. might have made me laugh from stupidity if it was a little better. Terrible. Awful. Disgraceful.WOWWHAT A STUPID CD"
186082,1,it sure didn't work for us,"We purchased this printer last October and printed about 8 sheets thinking it was going to be a winner. It jammed on the next page and has been out of commission since. We can't find any hint of a jam or paper. We removed the cartridges and put them back in. We unplugged it and left it off to ""rest."" It simply won't work, won't scan, won't do anything. I have tried reading everything on their support site and nothing has been helpful.I am not as sophisticated as an IT person but I am used to computers and networking and basic troubleshooting. I should have returned it to the store where I purchased it but kept thinking surely whatever was wrong was simple to fix. I guess I was wrong. After giving up on the printing end I decided at least we had purchased a scanner - can't get it to work either.I think this is the last LexMark for me."
186153,1,Way over-powered,"I thought the extra power would be great when using the dough hooks, since bread dough can be stiff, but it just flings the dough around then draws it up the hooks into a useless ball at the top. I gave it to Good Will."
186209,1,They spit on intelligence.,"Production values and acting are much better than the original but almost every scene is even less plausible than the 1978 version. If you are a big slasher/gore/revenge fan you will probably like the 2010 version more. If you have a few hours and are willing to put up with 70's exploitation production values and acting you will get more out of the original by watching it, then re-watching with Joe Bob Briggs' commentary turned on. As for reviews of the 2010 version that say it is ""smart"" and ""female empowering"", I find that to be dumbfounding if they are comparing the movie to the real world. By slasher film standards it may be ""smart"" though."
186210,1,Sigh,Typical teen movie. The only real excitement was the little nudity. But even then you can save some time and go watch something else like short bus.
186211,1,I AM NOT SURE HOW TO RATE THIS MOVIE!,"I saw this movie when I was younger and I must say that till today, I just cant sit still to watch it at all(giving it one because Amazon wont allow me to go without doing so). Yes it is a woman's liberation BUT God damn, this happened in real life and for Hollywood to remake it is a little bit mind blowing to me..Call me whatever you wanna call me but....WOW!!!!"
186222,1,Did Not Work,"My dog was startled when she was first sprayed, and then startled again a few times after. But after the first few sprays, she could have cared less and just yapped the day away with the collar spraying all over the place. She smelled like a mosquito repellent candle for a week until I finally gave up."
186292,1,Not the best,This book was extremely slow. At times it was alright but there are much better books out there about the Holocaust and World War II
186299,1,a dreadful book,"This book is a book were you can't get into it. It is like you are reading a law book. The plot seems like it would be good, but it is not! It has a good story but it is very repeatitive. The only reason why to buy this book is that you need it to complete the saga."
186427,1,Not what I would expect,"I have played Mankind for a year now.The game is set in a universe of well over a thousand planets (most likely much more). There are two problems with this ame.One, there is no tech support Two, the servers are often downWhen I say no tech support, I mean there is NONE. You can try to e-mail them, but the only response you get is in garbled English, and I have yet to get a problm solved by them without a ""reinstall the game and try again"" message.What you do get is a game that is more addictive than you can imagine. You must speak with other players before you buy. You can look around for forums to do so."
186433,1,Soiled Perfume box,"The Vera Wang box was soiled, it was received without manufacturers wrapper. It was to be a gift ! I endeavored to return but discovered liquids like this cannot be returned."
186455,1,The horrors of copy protection!,"I was extremely pissed off when I saw that ""content protected"" logo on the CD. I traditionally rip all my CDs into iTunes to play on my iPod. I don't buy digital albums because they can be lost in the event that my computer crashes. I predict this CD will flop, because it doesn't enable rock fans to make legit copies as they desire. Copy protection is evil and vile, and the record label should be ashamed of itself."
186467,1,Did not work well. Had to Return,"I have had this product before, and it always worked well with my Uniden cordless phone. That is why I had high expectations for this headset, however, this particular item did not work well from the day I got it. I was able to hear the caller clearly through the headset, however, callers complained of significant background noice (e.g. sounds like rushing water) when I spoke to them. I contacted Plantronics, and the representative was able to hear the problem over the telephone. She instructed me to return the headset, and they would replace it overnight, however, I had to pay shipping for the return. I am not satisfied, as this added to the cost of the headset which was defective when I received it. I sent it back last week and have not yet received the replacement, so I cannot comment on that quality. (I have to repeat, however, that I have been satisfied with this product in the past.)"
186477,1,Works for a while and dies,"I am going through my 2nd one. When i bought it, everything was fine but after some months of using it people can hear me and i can't hear them."
186524,1,Awful. Save yourself.,"Have you ever found yourself in the company of unfamiliar people talking about things you have no imput on or telling inside jokes you don't get? Not to mention you you just want out of the room because you are being bored to death slowly and painfully... For 101 minutes????Seriously, I've watched some bad movies in my life and I have to say I have a high tolerance and this movie killed me! Even Channing couldn't sway my opinion on this. I just kept waiting for SOMETHING to happen. ANYTHING!!! No plot poor character development and too much going on.I feel like its my duty to stand I front of redbox and prevent others from this!!!"
186590,1,For $120.00 I expected more!,"Same problem as everyone else for me. No scrolling really can get annoying and if you have a large artist list and you want someone like mariah carey who is in the middle of the alphabet you have to take about 30 seconds before you get to her name. i also thought that you would be able to use the ipod if you wanted, but it doesn't respond.On the plus side however it gives the cd quality sound that i couldn't even come close to with the fm transmitter."
186617,1,Not even worth burning,"This book is a conglomeration of shamanic nonsense and Nordic phylosiphies. Meadows (who obviously doesn't know anything about Native American spirituality, because the Native Americans don't have shamen, they have Medicine Men) has the hubrus to rearrange the order of the runes (they are in the ""futhark"" order for a reason, which if Meadows had done his research he would have understood this); at least his rearranging isn't as bad as Ralph Blum's. Stick with the better rune authors: Aswynn, Thorsson, and Paxson."
186651,1,Ships Within 4 Weeks?,"I ordered this item over a week ago and came back to check the shipping status today because the item hadn't arrived. To my astonishment, amazon predicts another 2 weeks until delivery! I would have been better off calling every store in my area to find this item. Who can wait a month for a toothbrush?"
186669,1,We threw this book away.,We did not like this book and found it entirely creepy that the doll grew out of the ground. We disliked it so much that we did not even want to give it away and quite possibly is the only book I have ever thrown away.
186714,1,...and the 3rd movie kills the franchise,"Its obvious there weren't many ideas left to keep the Mummy franchise going but the third installment pretty much ruined any idea of it ever coming back. Sure the movie has lots of action but little substance and no soul. Fast pacing spliced together with forced romance and poor comedy barely hold this movie together.It could have been done well and sent the series out with a bang but with Hollywood focusing on the ""under 13 crowd"", this movie puts the lid on the coffin with no interest in raising the series from the dead."
186776,1,"Disappointing, to say the least....","I found this book incredibly disappointing. If you are a true AIC fan, like myself, this book is quite an insult. There is little useful information about Layne, the band, or the music. It is poorly written, turning completely away from the subject to describe the writers own personal challenges in life. In this already too-short book, almost 2 chapters are dedicated to a history lesson, and another is dedicated to explaining herion use to us all. The writer never actually interviewed Layne except for over the phone, where he told her that he hated journalists, and didn't support the writing of the book and never planned to read it himself."
186848,1,READ THE BOOK INSTEAD,"I read the book and looked forward to sharing the video with my husband. His comment was ""I am sure the book was much better"". I told him it was. Don't waste your time. Read the book instead - it is really good!"
186855,1,"Took a chance on ""assorted colors"" :(","Bummer! My son's school supply list specifically requested Fiskar scissors so I ordered these. Although I realized they came in ""assorted colors"", I ordered them in the hopes that they would arrive in a gender neutral color. Unfortunately, they came in a flaming hot pink and that just won't fly for my little guy. I ended up giving them to a neighbor girl so she could have them for school. It's really too bad that the customer cannot order the color of their choice. For that reason, I am giving 2 stars. On a side note, I believe Fiskar scissors are very well made and durable."
186865,1,There should be a zero star option!,"This was the WORST!!! Come on, REAL ZOMBIES!?! YUCK! I never would have let my children watch this BUT we were at a birthday party and I couldn't turn it off. This is NOT for young children!!!"
186903,1,Don't use on your Macbook!,"I bought this product because the people at the Apple store told me I could buy your generic multi surface cleaning wipes and save some money compared to the cleaner they had at the store. So I found Pledge Multi Surface Everyday Wipes that say they are safe on electronics and glass. I used this product on my Macbook glass computer screen and it leaves streaks so bad. It also leaves lint or particles or dust wherever you use it. I use it to dust my entertainment center stand, which is also glass, and it pretty much just moves the dust around into piles instead of picking it up. Because this product does such a bad job on my computer I now would usually rather have a dusty screen than go through the frustration of ""trying"" to clean it with these wipes."
186979,1,"Too bad, I was about to buy it","It seems clear from the customer reviews below that this DVD is a disaster of ""simulated"" letterbox. Apparently the VHS widescreen version is all right, but then of course that's videotape.Now off to Blockbuster, where I will as usual use my magnifying glass to make sure whatever DVD I choose is not panned and scanned. Eternal vigilence, eh? Is there really anyone left renting DVDs whose TV set is too small for letterbox?"
186997,1,"It was a great little exercise, til it snapped","The band did what it said fantastically. I would just sit all day at work and expand and use it to keep my hands busy.Second day of using the yellow band, it snapped. I bought these because i thought they wouldn't. Now that i know they will, might as well just buy regular rubber bands for this kind of exercise."
187005,1,Dont get this book,"This book is really bad. It has very few pictures and is hard to use. If you want to get a guide for this game, then get the Official Nintendo Player's Guide. This guide is much better and is the one i used to beat both games. The only problem is that amazon.com does not carry any Nintendo plyaers guides."
187080,1,Cute animals,"This is a great collection if you like animals, allot of animals. What really bothers me is spending $60+ for a DVD collection, then being constantly told I am ""forbidden"" to fast forward, skip ahead, or view a menu."
187088,1,CHECK THE SONGS! WRONG ALBUM ART!,"PROCEED WITH CAUTION:I don't recommend the Elektra recording ""Dee Dee Bridgewater"" containing the songs: Lonely Disco Dancer, Gunshots in the Night, When You're in love, et al. I am big Bridgewater fan but this recording is crap. (I had the LP years ago).I do recommend the Atlantic recording ""Dee Dee Bridgewater"" containing the songs: It aint easy, Goin through the motions, You saved Me, et al. with the caveat: it is an R&B; album indicative of it's time."
187106,1,don't waste your money,"I tried these to move a desk that i needed to move to the other end of the room I placed these under the legs and nothing,I pushed and the desk didn't budge. I just ended up asking my friend to help me move the desk. So people just ask someone else to help you and save your money."
187128,1,Sucks,"By far one of the most pointless, lame, boring pieces of film I've ever seen. We suffered through about 40 minutes of this mess before hitting the eject button on the DVD. Regardless of whatever concept/technique was employed, it's just awful. Even the talented Michael Cera couldn't save it."
187149,1,Please make it stop,"Hey record companies, don't you think its a little late to be snapping up your own version of Avril Lavigne? This cd is such a cliche--whispery vocals that explode into raging screams, ""chunk-a-chunk-chunk"" guitars, and whiney lyrics about how miserable life is. Don't worry though, pop culture trends die out quick. Kelly Clarkson will be back cooking hamburgers for a living before you know it."
187255,1,disappointed,With 200 pounds of drywall tires bowed . This made it impossible to control. I wound up carrying each sheet by hand. I have several trojan tools and all work extremely well. This was the first onei have had a problem with.
187286,1,Good luck,"Follow the instructions in this book and try and change the back spark plugs. Good luck. It leaves out a few steps, but it's better than nothing.You might want to jack up the van and go at them from underneath. Either way, it's a tough job to get at them."
187380,1,"Plotless, pointless, and pretty","As a Myst fan I looked forward to this game and was sure that since it was so difficult to find in my local store that it must have been great. Boy, was I wrong. I played through and found that the puzzles were pretty difficult simply because were totally unrelated to each other and the rest of the game in general. Running a PII 600 MHz machine the game gave me no problems and the graphics ran fine. I am not an extremely picky gamer and with a bit of a plot this game could have been tolerable. ... ."
187434,1,Not again ! ! ! !,"I wont buy this , how many times they want us to buy this movie , everybody knows that they could put the two versions together, this is an insult to our common sense, and don't get me wrong I love the LOTR movies, but this kind of marketing needs to stop, this is in another words a rip-off. When they release a truly Blu-Ray Trilogy I'll be the first on line to buy it , for now I keep my dvd's"
187469,1,We're waiting!,"I'll keep this short and sweet. I'm not buying this on blu-ray until you give us the Extended Version. I love LOTR, but this is a complete rip-off, and I'm not falling for it."
187496,1,We need the Theatrical and the Extended Versions of this Awesome Trilogy,I agree with the statements from other reviews where it says that the Studio needs to release the Theatrical and the Extended Versions on Blue-ray NOW.
187528,1,"Sell me what I want, not what you do!","I agree with the fact that I want what I want, not what the studio does. I already own the extended version on regular DVD, the only reason I am interested is because of the picture quality on Blu Ray. I will NOT buy other that the extended version on Blu Ray. I can and will wait until they offer what I want!"
187575,1,The choice should be ours,"Someone was aruging that they favored the theatrical version vs. the extended. That's fine. That's their choice. But for those who prefer the extended version, they should be able to get what they want as well. The choice should be ours and not the movie studios! Where is the extended version?!?!? The option should be ours now."
187581,1,Such greed!,"I too love the LOTR movies, but don't love what the studio is doing trying to get us to buy this movie over and over again. Extended Version Bluray is what should ethically be released at this point. Seriously just HOW MUCH money must you make from these films?"
187585,1,Just placing my vote AGAINST it,"I vote against these theatrical versions (in favor of the extended versions).Studios, I promise, when the extended version comes out I'll give it a 5. Sound fair?"
187595,1,Release Extended Editions,We have already bought both extended and theatrical releases on dvd. Now they are trying to make us do it on blu-ray. This is ridiculous.
187603,1,Double-dip slap in the face.,"Could have done EE with seamless branching, but instead want to 'force' fans to double dip."
187608,1,rip off,Why not release the ENTIRE versions? There's no excuse for these abbreviated versions other than greed.
187614,1,this is a ridiculous slap in the face for fans,"so New Line decides to release this, charging a pretty penny, and on purpose does not give us the complete movies. WE KNOW THE EXTENDED CUTS EXISTS!!! what they are doing is asking for money now, and again in a couple years when the extended cut hits. disgusting. this is no way to treat fans."
187644,1,"Not worth it, Extended Version is the one that needs to be released.",This version is not worth it. I have the extended version (DVD) and I will not watch any other version. When the extended version is released on Blu-ray I will buy that. I would not even consider this version at all. Studio is not getting my money twice for this.
187701,1,H*LL NO!,"For the love of God! I guess this can occupy the space next to my VHS set, DVD theatrical set, and DVD extended set.Why don't they just put out a LaserDisc edition to make my collection complete.I want the BR edition more than anything, but I refuse to buy a fourth, and then fifth edition of this trilogy.Stupid jerks! I'm going to go buy ten copies of the Ralph Bakshi LOTR animation just to spite you!"
187719,1,Waiting for extended! Got me last time but not again!,Big fan of the movies but not going to get suckered again! I'll wait until it's the complete package thanks.
187723,1,This is a rip off...,Stop the greedy tactics already and release the EEs!! People please dont buy the BD versions until the Extended Editions are released. They are stealing your money and making a tradition of it. Dont do it!
187739,1,Motorola Charger,"It worked once, then nothing, would not charge the phone. The blue light at night is a distraction, very bright... Spend the extra couple of buck and buy quality."
187754,1,loud,"We are using this in the entry hall of our house near the intake for the furnace. It is very convenient to fill (2 containers, 1 on either side), and you do not have the problem of mold building on the inside of the unit like the older canister humidifiers. However, I would not recommend this product if you have a problem with loud appliances. It turns on and off frequently and the lowest fan setting is still quite loud."
187780,1,not worth the time effort or money,the DVD played for about 2 mo then it wouldn't recognize a DVD.No RCA products have ever worked at their best.
187781,1,Bose Acoustic Wave 2,"I 've had the Bose CD3000 for over 5 years. It is a good player for outdoor use. However, do not spend 1100 dollars on this system for home use. It is only adequate. First, there are no sound adjustments to make other than the volume. Second, the base output is ok but you must have the unit perched where there is a wall behind it to enhance the bass. It is just like any other boombox when placed against the wall. Finally,because most of the music is going to downloads and uploading to IPOD systems this unit is outdated. The top loading CD has a tendency to open when not in use. While the CD player is there, I doubt that it is going to be used much.For 1100 dollars there are better investments out there."
187856,1,What The Heck Happened Here?,"This is only proof that songs cannot be redone with the same feeling and meaning as the original. If I was in U2, I would be insulted that a song I wrote could be brought down so much. I liked one song, Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses, but not enough to make me feel that my dollar was well spent. All of them sound like different songs and should not have the same name as the greatness that was created originally."
187876,1,Disappointing CD,I have several of the Hearts of Space Collection discs. I was disappointed with this one. It was dull. The music had no energy to it unlike some of the other HoS discs.
187948,1,There is evil in this world...,"A colleague asked me to read this, otherwise I never would have picked it up. And to be honest, I am not thrilled I read it.I am just not into this sort of stuff. The book is supposedly based on the teachings and ideas of Jesus, but boils down to a pop psychology, ""believe in yourself and all will be well"" type of message.The basic gist of the book is that if you just recognize that nothing is good and nothing is evil, then nothing can have power over you, and the karma of the universe will come back to give you health and blessings.What a load of crap.While I agree that many of the things we call good and evil are not inherently good and evil (a knife, cancer, alcohol, etc), these things can be used for very good or very evil actions. This is the glaring flaw in the book. He kept writing about inanimate objects, and diseases as being morally neutral. Fine. But it is what people do with these things that causes good and evil."
188036,1,What a stinker!,"For those of you thinking you're going to get an insightful look into Ancient Egypt through a well-written work of historical fiction, stay away. This is an extremely amateurish book. For one example, the author insists on telling us about the characters, using long strings of adjectives, instead of letting them speak for themselves. It's ridden with cliches, impossible to get involved in, and composed in the style of a very cheap romance. The publishers should be ashamed of themsleves."
188046,1,Extreme Shipping Costs,"The price of the paper looks great. However, the shipping costs were extremly high. The S&H were almost expensive as the rolls of paper."
188084,1,Don't buy! Illegal!,"This is an illegal bootleg release. Buy 'The Complete Bob Marley & the Wailers 1967-1972', parts 2 and 3 (from JAD Records) or Bob Marley & The Wailers albums from Trojan Records instead, if you want to have the songs on this album. JAD's and Trojan's releases are legal, and the sound quality is often much better on their albums. Also, if you buy the box sets from JAD, part of the money will go to the Bob Marley and Peter Tosh families and Bunny Wailer (the three original Wailers)."
188088,1,Wallace-an unbalanced view,An entertaining read but more opinion than fact based. Plenty of references but even more conjecture and supposition. Was Wallace so virtuous and Edward so evil? I don't think so. A book written to support the author's point of view with very little objectivity. The writing style is at times difficult to follow with events being related out of sequence or seemingly unrelated to the points being made...this is hardly a scholarly work. There must be better books on this subject....
188117,1,Crapola,Get Joe Pass at Montreux 1977 the one with Masquerade. This trio stuff dilutes the great Joe Pass with mediocre musicians. This CD here is pure corn. Everyone knows Joe only recorded this muzak for the money. Trolls and bots are welcome to comment.
188148,1,"""father"" riker: interesting. betty lewis: amateur.","the story of holy city is intriguing and the research for this book was thorough enough, but it is about the worst written book i have ever read. totally intolerable if you are not quite curious about the subject matter. the whole thing essentially consists of nonsequiturs and the information is not really organized into chapters as advertised. there are two misspellings on the very first page. the typography is terrible as well: reckless capitalization; hyphens used for em-dashes; (typewriter) dumb quotes throughout. betty lewis, a respectable local historian, did not appear to have the benefit of any particular skill in composition, nor of an editor."
188199,1,The Worst Movie Ever???,"This movie comes in a cardboard case, when you remove the security sticker at the top; it rips off the artwork with it. I think this shows how much quality was actually put into this film. As for the film itself it has it all: bad Acting, bad Directoring, & bad Everything Else. I did not laugh once during this film, nor was I scared or grossed-out by the little gore it had. All I wanted was for this pointless film to end."
188263,1,Just not funny.,"Just another lame, predictable, cliche romantic comedy, and it's not even that funny. Actually, not funny at all.Just very boring, so boring due to the writing and actors."
188323,1,Well written trash,"I enjoyed listening to Delillo's sentences. His skill with structure is almost poetic in that these sentences have flow and rhythm that a poet would love.Having said that, I really didn't like this book. It starts out confused, and ends up confused. Delillo could have written this in a single chapter, and he wouldn't have lost anything. The fear of death, hiding from reality in the white noise, even the sexual connotations of our world, all could have been put into one short story, and it would have been interesting, besides.The sentences have balance, flow, and beauty. The novel does not."
188327,1,"Once it works, it's mediocre","Do not buy this product unless you are already an experienced chain-saw user. The blade comes packed seperaely and must be installed, which takes three hands. Then the tension must be adjusted and oil added. Adjusting the tension is difficult, because they paut the screw right next to the blade, which means you only get about half a turn and then have to withdarw the tool they give you and find the slot in the black screw(hard to see)all over again. In addition, there are no markings about which way to turn the screw for the desired effect.If you do buy this saw, read the instrctions. They are actually well written, even though it's hard to perform the tasks described.The saw seems to have enough power to do its job, but getting it adjusted so that you can use it is difficult and keping it that way for more than a few cuts is much more difficult."
188364,1,I'm curious...,I hesitate to even consider buying this item because the product description is so vague and no one has bothered to give a review and with only one left in stock someone is bound to have something to say about it. Does this DVD contain nature sounds alone without music? Can you please give a little more detail? I realize it's only $8.99 yet I still need to know more before I purchase. I've been burned too many times on spending $20-$50 on vague descriptions. Not again.
188439,1,"No Speakerphone, False Advertising","For a phone that costs $169, the lack of any features is pretty disturbing. But the one that Linksys actually points out in their documentation is actually not available on this phone. That feature would be a speakerphone, a mainstay of about every phone sold today. The phone works, but the speaker is apparently only to play the startup noise.Also, it feels pretty cheap when using it. I was afraid I was going to break a button. This one went right back to Amazon."
188546,1,Very Dissapointing,"I thought that Britney's first two CDs were great, but this just didn't make the cut for me. This album clearly shows that Britney wants to prove to the world that she's not a teenybopper by wearing even more outrageous outfits, and trying to sound mature and sexy. She also tries to cuss a little in ""I'm a Slave 4 U"", and she tries to sound sexy and nasty in ""Boys"", but I'm sorry to say it's not working. Many songs, such as ""What It's Like To Be Me"" and ""Overprotected"" still had that teenybopper ring that was apparent in her first CD. I think that Britney should really stop trying to be someone she's not, (like Christina Aguilera) but actually sing the right type of music that works for her that was in her first two CDs. I hope that Britney will put out a better CD next time that will have people actually glad to listen to."
188548,1,She loves rock 'n' roll?,"She COMPLETLY RUINED ""I Love Rock'n' Roll"" And the rest of the CD is one big piece of no style. She has no style of lyric spacing or nothin."
188587,1,Another Waste of Karloff's Talent,"Boris Karloff's sinister presence cannot save this disappointing H.P. Lovecraft adaptation. ""Die, Monster, Die!"" plods along until its effective climax, with mad scientist Boris disintegrating in classic fashion. The AIP production is somewhat reminiscent of Karloff's 1936 sci-fi thriller ""The Invisible Ray."" Though he was determined to keep working, the aging horror icon should have been more selective in his choice of projects."
188588,1,Where is Chris Cornells Song?,Can't really give an honest rating of this collection as i havent purchased it or really listened to it (apart from watching the film). The reason being that Chris Cornells song (you know my name) is missing...i find this incomprehensible as this is a moving and very powerful piece of music that surely should have been included?
188596,1,socks,"Not as expected, too short, nothing special for the price - took forever to receive ( about 3 weeks)"
188687,1,Needs an OFF Button!,My daughter received this toy at her 1st birthday and it is my least favorite toy! There is no off button or volume control and it is very annoying as previous people have said. To be honest I'm not a big fan of Baby Einstein products.
188695,1,Dissapointing,"I expected more, having heard about this CD months before its release, I bought it as soon as it became available and I'm not impressed. Don't buy unless you absolutely have to hear one of the groups. The first Trancemode Express is much better."
188720,1,Way too much hassle,"My expectation was to install the recommended hardware, hook up the cable, watch live tv, record shows and play them back. After the installation there was a problem at every step. First figure out your cable characteristics, then discover that your cable source encodes the channels that you want the most and that they are not available thru a third party tuner.Next, after you scan for the available channels you must tediously map them to the Snapstream lineup. Live tv seemed to work okay.Tried to use the scheduling guide to see what's on and watch a show. Error. Tried to go back to Live-TV. Error. Tried to play back something that was miraculously recorded. Error.The forums are full of users with unresolved problems. In this day and age, programs must be more robust and stable than this. I would have expected this in the 70's. I have no interest in dedicating significant time trying to figure out why this doesn't work. I'll just get DVR from my cable co."
188866,1,very disappointing,"After all the hype, I expected more. I kept plugging away, but could not get interested and finally gave up, something I rarely do."
188874,1,Not for me,"The fault with this book, and I feel kind of insensitive referring to it that way, is in the story. It was too vapid for me. Too unsettling in how dark and yet casual this murder, death and loss was. Several reviewers have mentioned humor; I found none. Maybe I wanted revenge too much. I wanted her character to pull some Hollywood stunt that would make her death make sense, but that wasn't the author's intent and, I never could figure any other reason for the story to be. It wasn't strong enough in its focus on loss or change and it did end up utilizing mysticism here and there, so why did the author not give it a purpose? It felt like a loosely wound ball of string with ends sticking out all over the place. I was anxious for it to be over and just felt sad, as if her life (and death) had not only been meaningless, but she had left no lasting effect on anyone elses life either. Just grief, guilt and confusion."
188877,1,A Meandering Character Study,The Lovely Bones is really a series of character studies. The story kind of meanders along and there's not much resolution. Don't pick up this book thinking it's a mystery that will be solved. The focus of the story is how the protagonist's death changes her family.
188892,1,Difficult to finish,"I was very disappointed by The Lovely Bones. It was a difficult read right to the last page because the storyline just wasn't deep enough to be interesting. Where many readers couldn't put the book down, I had to force myself to stick with it. I couldn't connect with any of the characters and often found myself wondering why they were even part of the story. I assumed they'd play some key role later but alas, they did not - just sort of fell off the radar, only to be vaguely mentioned (if at all) in later chapters.If this is Ms Sebold's first novel, I have to give her credit. Writing isn't easy and getting published is even harder - especially a first novel. Just wish her editor had encouraged her to deepen this story a bit rather than allow it to just skim the surface of a plot that had so much potential."
188902,1,The Empress Has No Clothes,"Why have so many luminaries and reviewers jumped on this bandwagon? I just finished reading this novel (though I almost abandoned it several times), and find it one big missed opportunity. Great concept: murdered girl narrating from heaven the evolution of her surviving family and friends. But amateurish execution: (1) much of the book is underwritten, in that the characters are mostly cardboard cutouts draped with pathos, and (worst of all) Sebold dangles an intriguing version of heaven and then virtually ignores it for the rest of the book; (2) numerous passages are painfully overwritten; and (3) the story moves forward only with the help of cliche contrivances (e.g. mom comes back after 8 years because dad has had a heart attack? why? we don't know, because Sebold has barely mentioned mom since she left). Only in the talk-show age could this book garner this degree of favorable notice. If you want to read something compelling and really ravishing, try ""East of Eden."""
188918,1,Swisher not so sweet,"There really is nothing I can say good about this trimmer. It is difficult to start even with the low compression engine. It bogs in 2 foot tall orchard grass and when it dies, it floods. It is clumsy on hills and worse yet when pushing up hill, digs into the dirt on the uphill side unless you ignore the directions and lift the front end of the machine. The line itself is fairly short lived and the method of attachment, while relatively easy, is not very secure. With all the problems, an area that takes me about 1 hour to trim with a standard string trimmer could not be finished in an hour and 15 minutes. I finally had to use the string trimmer to finish the job the Swisher couldn't. returned the machine to the store and got my money back. In my opinion, unless you have a flat area with no serious brush or grasses, this is a waste of time and money."
189025,1,More than frustrating,"This is the second of these machines that I've had; the first one had to be replaced because it became essentially inoperable after 3 weeks. The new one lasted 1 month before it began misbehaving: it won't record unless it's left on, the controller doesn't work as it should. Yes, when it works, the quality of the recording is good, and that's all I do with it. Nothing fancy or demanding. And yes, as a technical writer I would say that the manual is in need of an overhaul. I will give it one more try, going back to the default values and going through the setup procedure once more. If it fails again, it goes back for a refund. Panasonic should do better by its customers."
189034,1,"From a true fan, this is too dry.","With this highly charged political book, you're probably not going to believe this review but... I'm a huge Al Franken fan. The Limbaugh-Idiot book and the Lies-Liars book are two of my favorite books ever, (you can see my reviews). This book goes very technical and detailed with not enough jokes. The book is more like a candidates book than a humorists book. I guess I believe it and see the need for it, but it's just not fun to read the way the Limbaugh-Idiot and Lies-Liars books were."
189170,1,SHE ACTS LIKE SHE IS BRANDY.,"MONICA'S 2ND ALBUM ""THE BOY IS MINE"" SOUNDS JUST LIKE BRANDY.""THE BOY IS MINE"" THE SINGLE F/BRANDY AND BRANDY IS WAY BETTER THEN MONICA.""ANGEL OF MINE"" IS NICE.BUY BRANDY CUZ SHE WAS THE 1ST AND MONICA JUST COPIED."
189172,1,"It was only good for some songs, the rest sucked",Monica is a good artist but she is not as good as brandy because she doesn't have the groove to her other songs that aren't popular.I own brandy and monica's cds. personally i think monica has some work to do.
189218,1,If you are an honest good decent kind person,"Do not support this author. Anyone who knows him or has worked with him knows he's only ""kind"" (if he is capable of it) to people who can help him, and bullies and manipulates any subordinates. If you are a kind, decent person, know that you should give your support to another more worthy author who is a decent human and who doesn't need to ask his friends and relatives to write his reviews on amazon."
189283,1,Reformatted to 16:9--Aaaaaargh!,"The title says it all. Now that I've opened the package it's unreturnable. I never imagined at this time that a company reissuing an iconic tv series would even consider doing this, especially since Vol 1, is correctly formatted. The only indication of the reformat is in the fine print, and the reviews, which, unfortunately I didn't read. I would not have purchased this set if it had been clearly identified as reformatted. I think this information should be prominently displayed at the top of the page as part of the title, for example ""Route 66: Season 1, Vol. 2 (Reformatted)."""
189358,1,DISAPPOINTED FAN,"Jonathan and Faye Kellerman are two of my favorite authors ... have been for many years. I was looking forward to this collaboration. I received an advanced copy and could barely get through it. The characters were cardboard cut-outs, the plots plodded along, the endings were let-downs. Hope the Kellermans stick to what they do best in the future - - collaborate at home and work separately."
189361,1,"Not quite Bottom of the Barrel, but...","As with other reviews, I found only the first half of the book intriguing. The story degenerates into fewer character interactions that make sense and more plot-driven conveniences and complications that ultimately require a staggeringly anticlimactic explanation of the previous goings-ons.Can't recommend it."
189433,1,Bizarre,"I have no idea what the death of the author's son had to do with Karla Faye Tucker. I found the author's obsession with Tucker bizarre and wonder whether the author would have been drawn to Tucker had she not found Tucker so physically attractive. An example: at the end of the author's first visit to Tucker, the two place their palms on the glass separating them as if their palms are touching. I have no problem with the idea of people changing, but believe this book is yet another example of attempts by believers to sanctify Tucker. It's outrageous to me that any of the reviewers of this book would have the gall to criticize the woman who was killed because she was spending the night with the principal victim. So much for Christian charity."
189475,1,It was OK,I read this book expecting to be enlightened. I guess I have just lived through enough of these events already to know what they mean now. I was not impressed with the book.
189573,1,Not worth it.,I got these for a science project for my son. We get to the park all ready to go and the things went a whole 8 to 10 feet. Hugh disappointment.
189608,1,A shallow book indeed,"Griffith's exercise, meant to restore the glory of an eviscerated British military, is a shallow intellectual trip, decidely slanted with an agenda in mind that targets lesser-informed audiences such as wargamers rather than serious students of history. Mr Griffith's book will probably be used accordingly."
189660,1,THIS PRODUCT NOT WORTH THE MONEY,"THIS PRODUCT IS MADE OF POOR QUALITY MATERIAL.THE METAL IS PAPER THIN AND IF I CHOSE TO, I PROBABLY COULD HAVE ROLLED IT UP LIKE MAKING A SNOW BALL.THE HANDLES ON THE SLIDING DOORS REQUIRE USING GLUE,WHICH IS PROVIDED IN A SMALL TUBE.THE CABINET CAME SLIGHTLY DENTED.WITH THE COST OF THE CABINET AND THE TIME TO PUT IT TOGETHER,THE TOTAL COST IN TIME AND MONEY RAISED THE COST OF THIS PRODUCT THREE FOLD.WHY DIDN,T I SEND IT BACK? THAT'S A QUESTION I KEEP ASKING MYSELF. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED!!!!"
189697,1,not as expected,Part number was correct for the radial arm saw but it did not fit. It would have helped to have a diameter size and picture.
189751,1,The book is atrocious,"I actually used this book while travelling overseas. Pelton has exaggerated many things beyond interpretation. When he can't find something wrong with a place, he simply fabricates a story based on urban legend and half truths which anyone can pick up back home. I think he needs to apologise to the people of the countries he has condemned."
189756,1,never worked,"Never recoginized the antenna, bought another antenna, same problem, had to return everthing. Radio is junk and super bad customer support, morons period. Radio didnt even come with antenna. no wonder there going under."
189787,1,Nowhere as good as Starbucks Sumatra.,"Just bought a bag at a local Costco for only $16.59. The green oval label on top says ""Roasted from Certified Organic coffee beans."" I guess this is why it wasn't as flavorful as Starbucks (non-organic) Sumatra. It wasn't sour at all like blacksmithgirl claims. I guess her bag must have gone rancid. But it's too mild and too bitter for my taste. You get what you pay for. The worst part of waking up is this crap in your cup!"
189839,1,Failed After 2 Uses,"I would not recommend. Master should remove its name from this product. Being plastic, it feels very fragile. I imagine anyone could smash it with a hammer. The locking mechanism ceased to function after 2 uses."
189966,1,Atomic Clock,"You charged me shipping charges and the e-mail said that if I bought an item over a certan amount that I would not be charged shipping.The big thing is, the clock has a outside tempature monotor and the 1st time it rained it quit working.

While he is there he meets a very strange dog named Einstien. He also meets a great friend named Rebacca. Along the way he meets some good people and some bad. When Paul asks people about Einstien's old owner way does every one get upset about it? When a friend finally tells Paul that Einstien's old owner is died, he trys to connect with him."
190289,1,"Not a Practical Guide, Not an Insightful Look","This book is a disappointment as an adoption chronicle and a waste of money as a guide. It appears that the authors have very little appreciation for the beauty of China. Instead, ethnocentric, xenophobic comments predominate. This book was discussed on a listserve for adoptive parents, and many contributors were offended by the comments made by the second author.The ""practical"" information in this book is vague and unhelpful. This book gets one star only because one star is the lowest rating available. I give it a zero."

190349,1,A Series To Avoid!,"Looking for a compilation of ""Answer"" and ""Parody"" songs, I was intrigued by the title, and purchased Vol. 1 & 2. The first few seconds in my cd player was a clear indication that I should have saved my money. I have Never heard such poor recording quality, as most of the tracks appeared to have been taken from beater 45's. To add insult to injury, some of the songs were clipped at the beginning! If you're looking for decent copies of these songs, my advice would be to steer clear of this series. The overall quality probably would have sounded better using a close-n-play turntable with a pyrite needle. This may reek of sour grapes, but I call 'em as I see 'em, and cannot with clear conscience recommend this set in any way!"
190423,1,Awful!,"I was looking forward to this album, but after listening to the first disc ( and wanting to turn it off sooner, but wanted to give it a fair run), I found the sounds to be poor even on quality equipment. I enjoy doo wop, but this was too ""screechy"" and difficult to listen to."
190424,1,Over weight!,The information shows this bracelet weighs 14.5 pounds. I find that incredible and bet it's a mistake. I would not want to order and try to wear a bracelet that heavy!!Flo Philips
190446,1,Frustrated to the max!,"Actually, I give it zero star. The description is incorrect!! I ordered this expecting to get pantyhoses, but what I got were pair of socks. I attempted multiple of times to contact the business. The phone customer service rep. couldn't understand I had received the wrong items. The email rep. stated I would be phoned, which never happened. I was hoping to rectify this issue. Nope, ended up sending the items back and asking for a refund. Save yourself time, money, and a headache..don't order this product (unless you want a pair of socks-LOL)."
190458,1,"Can't get this thing to work, I wish I had chosen another brand.","I have had this machine for 2 days. I have tried 5 different brands of DVD-R discs, and so far I haven't found any which will work in this unit. No matter what I try to use, I get the ""Disc Error"" message. I spoke to Sylvania's customer support people, who told me it will only work with Maxell CD-R discs and DVD-RW discs. I can't find anyone around me who has Maxell, they all carry Memorex, Fuji, Verbatim, Sony,TDK, but no Maxells. I tested it to see if it will play a DVD, and it will. So basically this thing only functions as a conventional DVD player with no recording capabilities. It is either a very poor quality item, or it is defective, or damaged in shipping. In any case, I am back where I started, and I need to buy a DVD recorder."
190563,1,poor projection display,"clock is fine, the display on the ceiling 6' from the clock is only 2"" tall and not real bright."
190566,1,Average product,"The outdoor temperature remote stopped working after 7 months of usage. Changing batteries also doesn't help.The clock (set time) adjustment isn't that good either. The same key is for setting the backlight on and also to change the clock from temperature mode to alarm mode.And i seriously doubt whether it has ever synched up with NIST, since i always see the icon there on the clock but the time is way out of synch with my PC clock.Using the Warranty means, bear the shipping expenses to ship the clock to manufacturer."
190614,1,braindead propaganda,"The author obviously has never seen a public healthcare system. Healthcare research continues through private auspices in Europe, Canada and elsewhere despite public insurance coverage.This fantasy of a totalitarian medicare state may be satisfying for the ignorant or ideologically blind, but it has nothing whatsoever to do with the way healthcare is provided in most of the world outside of the United States of America."
190618,1,Looking for a better spatula,"The edge of the spatula, after only two weeks, has started to fall off in little pieces. I only washed it in soapy warm water and was very careful every time. I read other reviews that said this was a problem. I thought if I was very careful it wouldn't happen. But it did. I will return it."
190744,1,Awful,I spent half an hour attempting to put them up and after cleaning the window and pressing one side then the other (maybe this side would work if not the other) well in the end they ended up in the garbage. JUNK! They will not stay on my window.
190770,1,Disappointed with assembling,I registered for this item b/c I thought it would be very convenient. Now I am rating the assembling of this item. It is very difficult to assemble. Even my husband walked away from it. I tried and have not tried again. I would like to take it back and get something else but I am not sure if the store will take it back. I am sure it would come in handy once it is put together. Any suggestions from those who was able to get it together?
190842,1,Rehashed,"Here's the problem with Edward Lee's ""Flesh Gothic"": it goes no where. No one cares about the characters, most of whom serve no purpose other than to die. The continuity errors and loose ends abound (consider, if you will, how one character is forced to give his wallet up to a security guard in a mental institution for the safety of the patients, then three pages later the wallet is miraculously back in the character's pocket or how a van that was left in the driveway of a mansion somehow turns up back in its rightful parking place, a phenomenon that is NEVER explained).The good thing about the book: it's descriptive. Sometimes nauseatingly so.Bottom line: read Stephen King for a more intense, less pseudo-metaphysical scare."
190850,1,Sounds Like a Rip-off of an NSYNC song,"I think that this song, Shake it off, is terrible! First of all, it sounds like a rip-off of an NSYNC song, but much, much worse. The vocals are weak, but their voices are okay, though they need some training (a lot of training). They should listen to some real songs, then sing their own. Don't waste your money!"
190859,1,NO GOOD,Waste of my money!!!! first it took longer than usual to ship than when i got it the nail polish seemed used when i order new because the top was dried out already on top of that it wouldn't shatter i thought maybe i applied it wrong but i tried the black shatter n it worked perfectly i've used the black shatter before never a problem but this one seemed water downed nail polish.
190862,1,waste of money,"When I got this alarm clock for around 9 months, the radio died, and I could only use the beeping sound for alarm purposes. 2 months later, the clock just died completely. I think the price for this alarm clock is too high for something only last around a year."
190872,1,Cheesy piece of shovelware!,"As the alleged author of this book I'd just like todistancemyself from this cheesy piece of shovelware. Spend the moneyon a printer instead. Or a better monitor. Or some cheese and ashovel. While W3C specs are available under a liberal license, this""book"" is pushing at the limits of polite behaviour. I foundout I was named on the cover via Amazon. If I ever get around towriting a book, it won't have been this one..."
190888,1,Disappointing and predictable,"While the story was entertaining, the plot was completely translucent. I saw the ""surprise ending"" coming after the first few chapters. In fact, I was not surprised at any point in the book. It became a game of waiting for all of the characters to catch up to me, not exactly what you want when reading a thriller. Still, it was a fun read and I enjoyed the higher moral purpose. The writing was fast-paced if not incredibly cheesy at points. But what do you want? I bought it at the supermarket check-out line."
190894,1,My 6 year old was very disappointed,"Another disappointing Christmas gift this year, 2005. My 6 year old found it boring and hard to follow. I told her to forget about the video and we will just make up our on ballet moves. So I think that helped a little. But I would not waist your money."
190901,1,Slingblade it isn't.,"Wow, this movie was lame. At first I thought it might be good because of the director and the actors, and the beginning of the movie wasn't that bad if you're not real big on good acting. Sometimes a movie doesn't have to have good acting to be a good movie, this movie does not have that luxury. The story was lame and predictable, except for one part of the movie that really surprised me in it's improbability.The only reason that I watched most of this of this was because my girlfriend was awake and I wanted to seem interested in the movie for her. To give this movie it's due, the cinematography was good, but not good enough to keep me interested.I wouldn't recommend this movie, seriously you guys."
190905,1,COMEDY???,"I guess if you enjoy laughing at people who are tragically mentally ill, this would be a comedy. The movie is a drama with some moments of comedy. At no time does Lisa Kudrow get on all fours and bark like a dog. Now that I would have paid to see."
190908,1,Book was horribly disappointing,"I was given this book as a gift on my 30th birthday. I could barely get through it before donating it to Goodwill. It takes a very singular look at turning 30 and being a women. I found the examples to be a bit unrealistic and unable to capture what real women face in their careers, marriage, and family life. It makes assumptions about ""modern"" women and the ""what to do about it"" in the title is quit misleading. Perhaps this book is appropriate for 5% of females."
190912,1,Definitely obsolete,The book is great... if you purchased it ten years ago. The vast majority of the text is already obsolete but it still have some good points (the looking is amazing). Not recommended for anyone but newcomer programmers who are willing to learn some old fashioned java.
191004,1,Don't be sucked in by the singles,"I had high hopes for this album based on the (excellent) singles ""Release"" and ""Special Ones"", but unfortunately the rest of the album didn't even come close to living up to expectations. I found a lot of it sounded a bit too much like Jeff Buckley, and not being a fan of his I just couldn't get into it. The album is also a lot softer than the singles might lead you to believe - most of the other tracks lack the intensity that those two singles have.However there is hope! If (like me) you like those two singles you should check out TripleJ's hottest 100 CDs - ""Release"" is on volume 10, while ""Special Ones"" is included in the ""hottest box"" compilation."
191071,1,Offensive (Eventually),"I suppose that there is a sub-market for this work, but that sub-market does not include people who have a heart for Jesus Christ. Anne Lott aligns herself with Christianity and then proceeds to use obscenities and to condone taking innocent lives, among other offenses to historic Christianity. These 'thoughts on faith' are precisely that: Lott's self-absorbed thoughts on her faith, NOT Biblical thoughts about what faith is. If you are looking for insightful, inspiring literature, look further."
191097,1,Why I only saw Schemes once,"I have to say this was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. When we finally figured out what seemed to be the plot of the first half, we were again befuddled as the second half of the movie appeared to have nothing to do with the first half. Characters found out things, had epiphanies, seemed surprised and all, but it was difficult to tell why they were surprised, all they did was see a beat up car! The acting was particularly shoddy, but it was well done compared with the choppy editing, confusingly split screens, and lack of cohesive plot or convincing conclusion. Lots of people standing around in the same room at the end of a movie does not an oscar win. Unfortunetly, neither does it satisfy the watcher, or even give them a clear idea of what they just watched. This wasn't an artsy film either where you expect that. I left with the feeling someone took a pair of scissors to the reel of a movie, and I was watching what was left."
191113,1,The Law Of Diminishing Sequels works once again...,"What I can't understand is the total lack of energy that Stiller put in his performance. It's so bad, so by the books, so uninspired, that it did not seem the same Gaylord Focker we watched in MEET THE PARENTS. This alone was responsible for a great part of the disappointment that this sequel is.Hoffmann gets out of this mess untouched. This guy is a master actor, he can play anything, he has timing for anything. De Niro is, to my pleasant surprise, better than in the first movie.The trouble is: the script is not even close to the hilarious quality of the first movie."
191185,1,The 90's were an odd time indeed...,"The 1990's... They began with ""Smells Like Teen Spirit"" and Nirvana, and ended with ""I Want It That Way"" and The Backstreet Boys. In other words, it went from smelling like teen spirit to actual teen spirit. Even though they pretty much defined the 2nd half of the 90's, BSB were still a horrible, horrible pop group. They had catchy songs and some good harmonies, but none of them were musicians or even writers. All their music was backed heavily by synthesizers, and if there was an acoustic guitar in there it was played by somebody else. The lyrics were not written by the boys themselves, but by a hired team or writers. Not to mention every song was about either A. love or B. dancing. What a range of topics, eh? Get this if you want some 90's nostalgia or a good laugh (at how cheesy these guys were). If you want a real 90's nostalgia CD, get Nirvana's Greatest Hits."
191286,1,Unfortunately Not My Cup of Tea,"I found this movie to be inane and just plain not funny to me. I had a very hard time watching the entire thing. It didn't hold my attention at all.After watching the trailors on TV for this movie, I sort of expected something slightly like ""Dumb and Dumber"" maybe. The humor was too subtle or something and there seemed to be long stretches where there was no humor at all. At the end, Paul Rudd's character was pretty much the same as the beginning. Quite honestly, I felt that the storyline just went nowhere.My husband watched this movie some months before I did either on pay-per-view or one of the movie channels on our satellite and he told me he wished he'd have known I was getting it from Amazon because he would have saved me the trouble. He didn't like it either and generally he likes comedies a lot more than I tend to.There just was nothing outstanding about this film for me.Bottom line: This one is not a keeper."
191306,1,Oh Dear,"I've been a Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds fan since I first heard Tender Prey about 12 years ago and have seen them play all over the world, I've loved everything they've done. Up till now. This is the worst album Cave has ever realsed. With the exception of the first four songs everything else sounds lazy, half-assed and (dare I say it) dull. Tired lyrics, all of which I've heard before on previous albums, and a complete lack of heart and conviction too, which is almost criminal."
191315,1,Had a hard time finishing,"This book was difficult for me to read. The idea of an airplane being grabbed out of the air and then released back month's later was a little far fetched for me. It was a slow read and boring until the very last few chapters. I usually keep my books to read again, but I threw this one away."
191336,1,LORD KNOWS ALONE.,"THERE'S NOTHING SPECTACULAR ABOUT THIS MAN'S [?] WORK EXCEPT THE rather TIRESOME HOMOEROTIC ELEMENTS ..... someone let this deprived kid out of his cage and here we have it - ""same old - same old"" as we move through his ""ARTISTIC ACHIEVEMENTS"".WHOOPIE .... Fosse did it with much aplomb and originality .... again ""OH-RIDGE-AH-NA-LI-TEA"" ........THIS {f}art [no sweeter way of describing it] reminds me of the very overheated and moist atmosphere in London's seamy ""underground"" ..... you WERE around circa 1950 - 1952 .... London and the cottage industry?Lets sanitize and move on - nothing really current inspires ..... where is true genius instead of this rehashed old drek???PROBLEM is - this is setting the bar[re] for the young hopefulls ... BOY are they in for a shock...... UGH - let's just flush this as kitsch???"
191366,1,"Another victim of ""Metallica Syndrome""","How can I put this delicately? How about, ""This band is dead to me."" Paradise Lost is no longer metal. They used to be a unique goth-metal hybrid with visceral intensity and wailing guitars. Now the music is weak and droning. They are a hollow mockery of what they used to be. How anyone can call this album a ""return to form"" I will never know. What form? Fetal form? I've heard heavier music in a dental office.If you like intense music, check out their earlier albums from ""Gothic"" to ""Draconian Times"". They evolved nicely from album to album, hit their peak, and burned out. I guess their contract with Satan expired. Just like Metallica, they should have faked their deaths after Draconian Times and preserved a legacy of greatness. Like Jimi Hendrix did."
191398,1,The Polar Express-3D (Red/Blue),"I was unaware that this item was old 3D technology and came with 4 sets of red and blue 3D glasses. I could not really play the movie on my HD TV because the HD technology doesn't mesh well with the red and blue glasses and colors on the screen. The movie only cost $9 and did include a DVD (2D Version) of the movie, so it wasn't a total wash. I'll figure something out to do with it or give it to Goodwill. Thanks. David V."
191474,1,Take a look,One need only take a look at the manicured glory-mullet atop the head of Larry Arnold to see that not much lies beneath.
191548,1,EA Sports. Get Out of The Game.,"EA Sports, purveyors of mediocrity for many years now, hit a new low. It's inconceivable that someone actually green-lighted this game with such glaring errors. To me a glitch is something minor that doesn't affect gameplay. To have released this game as it is...well, downright criminal, if you ask me. But hey, it's only 40 of your hard-earned dollars, right? And WHATEVER you do, don't buy it from GameStop or EB Games. No. As far as they're concerned, the game isn't defective. It's a problem for EA Sports, they just want to take your money. Well, guess what? Never buying another EA Sports game, and I'm damn sure never shopping at GameStop or EB Games. Why did I not shop Amazon in the first place?"
191599,1,In a word . . .,"Ann Coulter should find another line of work. She is unfit to be published. She needs a shrink or better yet, a spanking or even better, a shrink to give her a good spanking. The book is in a word, disgusting, especially her treatment of the 9/11 widows. How can anyone stoop so low? Does she see horns when she looks in the mirror? She is truly an evil being; you can't even call her a human being because she has no humanity. Don't waste your money."
191601,1,crash and burn,"I usually enjoy Ann's speeches and articles, but this book was terrible. The facts/statistics are streched out and inaccurate. Not worth the money and not worth the time."
191617,1,Annoying to read,"I can't even get past the first few pages, and I've tried many times. The ""EVEolution"" jargon, or maybe it is just Popcorn's style is so annoying. Not only does she trash the English language, most of the language is so trendy that it just turns me off. This one is heading for the trash."
191653,1,Watch failed within two months,"I purchased a watch that was advertised as 'BRAND NEW with original packaging and manufacturer's warranty'. The watch failed after less than two months. There is no way to call or e-mail Time Zone Plus directly - and no website. And to try to contact Time Zone Plus through Amazon has been useless. My only other option is to go through the watch manufacturer for the warranty work, but it costs money to send the watch in, and they require that the seller be an authorized dealer in order to do the warranty work. Is Time Zone Plus and authorized dealer? I wish I knew the answer, but it's impossible to reach them."
191743,1,Doesn't hold up in a dishwasher,The scoop works just fine but after about 6 months of normal use (1-2 times a week) the finish on the concave portion of the scoop began to pit/peel. After about 1.5 years it's severely pitted and I don't consider it safe to use (who wants ice cream scoop pieces in you're ice cream).
191752,1,Keylock Man,I reveived the book but when I got it the back cover was torn and the outside was not in very good condition. I cant say that I will order any more books from this seller.
191764,1,Extremely Soft Plastic Scraper,Scraper edge looked fantastic in the box but lost its pretty edge literally after the first second of using it. You WILL be highly disappointed if you purchase this product and actually attempt to use it.
191766,1,Less than happy,"I would say it is an OK camera - for its low price.The picture quality is so-so, and the buttons are somewhat hard to reach. I will have to wait and see how the product does in terms of reliability/durability."
191810,1,Undecided,"I would not feel good about recommending this product to any of my friends at this time. I know the product says it may take up to 6 weeks to work but...I have been using it for 5 and a half weeks and my skin is broken out worse than ever. It started breaking out the first day I used the product, and in places I don't usually break out (jawline, cheeks). I resolved to give it the full 6 weeks, but have not seen any improvement! Also, the toner runs out after about 5 weeks but there is still plenty of cleanser and lotion. Unless there is significant improvement in the next few days, I will not buy this product again."
191938,1,"""Alex is fun, the Book isn't""","Having lived in the DC area I enjoy Alex Cross and his working environment.But I feel this book is disappointing. In general I do not care for Patterson, though I thought ""Mary, Mary"" was quite good.."
191941,1,Not a Spanish version,"Unfortunately, the book wasn't in Spanish. At least the sender was paying attention at shipping time, noticed it wasn't in Spanish, querried me whether I still wanted the book, and promptly refunded my charges when they didn't have a Spanish version available."
191944,1,Does He have a slicing complex?,"I didn't want to listen to this audio book, but my husband did. I think we could have stopped short by at least two or three, mutilations of the women he raped. We get it, we get it! The butcher is evil incarnate, with a scalpel in his hand. One of the latest Lindsey Boxer books had this theme of slicing faces, too. What's up Mr. Patterson? No other stories to tell??? I love how in all his books, whether it is Cross or Boxer, they always are meeting the most evil, vile human life form they have ever seen before, in each novel. I hate gratuitous violence. Tell a story, for crying out loud. Subtle is good. Bludgeoning the reader is Bad."
192018,1,No traction in hot water or stock,"I thought I was upgrading from my old metal tongs to something of real quality in getting these nifty-looking tongs. Now I wish I had my old plain tongs back. In trying to retrieve something from hot water or stock, the nylon-coated ends have no traction. As a result, I have some burns to show for using the wrong tool for the job. The ends just get slippery when trying to turn pieces of cooking chicken in liquid, for instance, and random splashing of hot stock as the chicken falls back into the pot. Were these tested before marketing? A big disappointment. Beware!"
192095,1,Not the worse,"Buena historia.Pero muy repetitivo.Al voltar cada pagina parece que estas leyendo lo mismo en diferente orden.Good plot but, way tooo looong!!!.Over and over the same thing."
192140,1,Stopped working suddenly,"I was absolutely thrilled with this product until this week. It has now been approximately nine months since I purchased it and suddenly it just died. The device itself says that it is making ice but no ice is actually being made. I read the online manual that comes with the device and it says if the ice-making cycle is normal but ice is not being made the device is essentially broken but to ""verify with a qualified technician."" Spending $200 on a 'qualified technician' to verify that my $200 product does not work does not strike me as the best use of my money so I don't think I'll be taking that route. I did contact the company so I'm crossing my fingers that they actually do something to fix this (apparently a manufacturer's warranty up to 1 year is included with the product) but we'll see."
192165,1,Just average - not as good as expected,"The price was great. Top brand name for batteries - Duracell. I was somewhat disappointed with its performance. First of, it is NOT fast at all. The unit does not really stop blinking when the batteries are fully charged. I have left it on for 12 hours for charging. My AAA non-Duracell rechargeable batteries (not part of these package) do not last too long after 12 hours of charging. I am not sure it was the charger or my batteries."
192186,1,Gilmour Timer Model No. 9200 Water Timer,"This is trash. Poorly made.Doesn't work.Spend more money, and get an electronic timer."
192199,1,Misleading,"Everything is fine and dandy except the fact that it doesn't come with the USB cord to hook the printer to the computer, and that IS a LITTLE important. Also, I have Windows Vista, and the printer is not compatible with it, I have to download a patch, but that was my own fault. I guess you get what you pay for..."
192239,1,Overproduced,"Raul can make us swoon with his voice alone (in Spanish or English), but apparently he doesn't trust his voice to carry the song. You can hardly recognize his voice in most of these songs. It could be my neighbor singing underneath all that revelry! This is the CD that I will put on at the end of the party when I want guests to leave....a disappointment for fans."
192244,1,Too academic and complex,"This book is too academic in the sense that it is a collection of theory with little practical examples and that goes too far into complex technical detail. It seems like the man pages have just been copied and formatted, with a little extra explanation (but not much.)"
192273,1,Poor Quality,Within 4 months of getting this mount it broke. The part that the ball fits into (ring part) broke. I would rather see the actual metal version that shipped with my Nuvi be available.
192362,1,The *only* book I've ever thrown away.,"I tried to like this book. I enjoyed following along with my pregnancy each week and looked forward to reading a little about what to expect each week during my daughter's first year. But by the time she was 5 months old, I'd been instructed to let my baby cry-it-out, told I had to start solids or she'd never learn to eat on her own, and instructed that now was a good time to wean her from the breast to formula. Much of the advice in this book directly contradicts with what the AAP recommends, and even more of it contradicts with my mommy instincts. There are many great childrearing books out there, from the attachment parenting based Baby Book from Dr. Sears to the sound, mainstream advice from the AAP in Caring for Your Baby and Young Child: Birth to Age 5. Please, please - look elsewhere for a parenting book."
192390,1,Waste of Money,"Ordered this book having already written a few treatments. I was just curious as to the author's definition of a ""treatment that sells"". Sadly, there are no examples of feature film treatments here; only a sample book adaptation treatment and a lengthy one for a television show. There's just a single chapter dedicated to writing a feature film treatment, and it consists of absolute writing basics (plot, character, point of view, etc) that anyone who's at the point of even considering writing a treatment should already know. The majority of the book focuses on television, with a few throwaway chapters about copyrighting and protecting your writing - all information that's freely available online. The Screenwriter's Bible (the FIRST book any aspiring screenwriter should purchase) covers all of this stuff in greater detail, and offers more ""real world"" examples. Don't waste your money."
192404,1,Simply not worth the effort...,"For those fans of Cornwell's brilliant Scarpetta series...i urge you to stay away from this book. This story doesn't evolve at all..just sort of plods along. The characters lack depth and the plot, well, I'm not even sure it makes sense. If it does make sense, it still is not interesting enough to make it even remotely worthwhile. Cornwell rarely disappoints, but falls flat here."
192420,1,Worst book she has ever written. Made no sense.,Southern Cross was way below the standards of this author. Perhaps she needs a break. This book made no sense what so ever. There didn't seem to be a plot and it was very amaturish. I was very disappointed and would'nt recommend this to anyone.
192423,1,An incomplete novel from a master.,"The characters never develop until the last chapter. Weed, a lost youth in today's world of computers and violence, is the only likeable character, but we never get to know him. Patricia Cornwell never gives Brazil, Hammer, and West a reason for their existence in the novel. Too wrapped up in their own personal worlds, they never seem to be able to interact with the other characters in the novel. Cornwell gives her animals the ability to think rationally and with emotion.....perhaps they are the only intelligent beings in the novel. The other characterizations are sketchy at best and the reader never connects with any of them. The one murder scene is described in detail and then dismissed from the plot. A true disappointment from an usually exceptional author."
192455,1,Wiz is starting to lose his touch,"Well, I enjoyed the other books in the series, but by the time we get to this book, I just feel like Rick Cook is really stretching his story, leaving a lot of loose ends, and not really giving a whole lot to the reader other than a ""filler book"" for his next book in the series. There just wasn't a lot of meat and potatoes so to speak.Now, that being said, there were some clever references, and it was an enjoyable read. But it was one that I found I could put down throughout and pick up later when I had nothing better to do.I think there are parts of this book that feel like a Robert Asprin ""MYTH"" series with the cutesy demons he starts to roll out with. Overall, the end of the book left me with an unsatisfied feeling where I might try to read the next one, but only if I can find it at the library.If you're a fan and planning on reading the whole series, pick this up for a bargain price or find it at the library. It's not really one of his best works."
192463,1,Nu-Metal sinks to Nu-Lows,"This sound has been done to death in the past 5 years and the fact that MTV and radio continue to shove it down our throats is just horrible when there are so many more deserving bands with diverse sounds. This band has some of the most immature and cliche lyrics I've ever heard, usually only writing 20 lines a song and repeating the chorus over and over!! If this is the future of metal, that bands just copy Korn with a touch of lite-grunge rock thrown in, then it it should be no surprise when metal is seen as a joke again, and thats sad as I love metal and its Korn klone bands like this that give the whole scene a bad name!! Avoid this album and band at all costs."
192483,1,Actually,"if I were ill, I would have my husband, mother, grandfather, or one of the numerous other doctors in the family take care of me. I have nothing against doctors, just against stupidity."
192513,1,Please enter a title for your review,"Faceless reverb-drone overproduced alt-rock. I guess i can't say it's not pleasant, but it sounds like the whole album could have been made with synthesized samples rather than actual instruments and most of the composition rigidly adheres to basic commercial formulas at the expense of any memorable hooks or distinct melodic impact. It's completely mechanized and personalityless, approaching music as a product rather than art."
192550,1,"A sad story, badly told","I feel sorry for these two ladies and what they went through in their lives as this is a true story, but this book is just not worth reading. I wish I could say something positive but I can't think of anything. I wish I had not spent money on this book. It is now in my ""donate to the library"" pile."
192641,1,Good book and easy to read,A good mystery. The author keeps you guessing to the end. I'm looking forward to more books from this author.
192716,1,It broke in nine months,"Given the limited availability of HD programing available, we early adopters of such products must be masochists. Cleverly (I thought), I bought the extended warranty, just in case. So, when my digital audio went out 9 months later, I didn't worry too much. It took me 4 more months to figure out that it was the DCT100, and not the cable or the audio receiver that was bad... So, 2 stars DCT100 (which was cool, when it worked), and one star..."
192760,1,Lousy,"Sound quality is about like hearing someone trying to talk to you with a pillow shoved over their face. Terrible. I got it as a ""bargain"" along with a rebate. Tomorrow it goes into the Dumpster."
192829,1,A boring and uneffective plot,"This book arrives nowhere, after an interesting start. I felt like most of the narrative led nowhere eventually. Some of the twist and turns were clumsily devised and lacked impact. The characters are one-dimensional and the reader comes to expect exactly what they ended up doing. There are no unexpected surprises and no deep connections with any one. Once you finish the book, you will never think about it again and feel like you've wasted your time reading all that nonsense."
192830,1,Don't waste your money,"Not only did every plot device leap out like a signpost shouting ""warning! tricky situation ahead"" - I felt absolutely no connection to the self-absorbed characters in this ho-hum take on middle age. What some critics call fascinating detail on ordinary life reads to me like mindbendingly dull and ultimately pointless navel gazing -- and that's forgetting the fact that no real person could be as relentlessly self-aware/intuitive as the main character.Ms. Miller asks us to swallow a highly improbable chain of events (ok no biggie here) as well as patently unbelievable reactions to them. One example of many (I won't get into specifics here in deference to those who will not heed my warning) -- ask yourself what competent minister in the world would blow off a killer's confession, to focus on another trivial aspect of the tale entirely, to the exclusion of an innocent's pain? I didn't buy it, and neither should you."
192854,1,Verbose Ad Nauseum,"I appear to be in the minority with my dislike of the book Spock's World by Diane Duane. I have read other Duane Star Trek novels and suffice it to say this author gives you three pages of irrelevance to one page story. I like a little background as mauch as any reader, but Duane does so excessively to the point that she is the literary equivalent of a person who likes to hear the sound of their own voice. Descriptive to the point that you can't see the forest for the trees."
192858,1,Don't waste your money,"There is nothing ""gymnastic"" about this DVD. It is plain-old water fitness using a few different pieces of equipment (a disc, a bar, and a noodle). I am a certified aqua aerobics instructor and there are many moves featured on the DVD that I would never do in my class due to potential injury, especially to the shoulder."
192859,1,bad,"This books dwells too much on patterns, in effect the vocabulary is minimal. Amharic is not transcribed, Italian is not marked for stress. I'll recomend Lonely Planet - may not be perfect, but certainly it's better."
192950,1,Half the movie was missing!,"The movie is great....unless you get a DVD that cuts away the first 80 minutes of it! This DVD started at the scene just before the invasion of Poland, so needless to say...I feel a little short-changed."
193026,1,Worth the read,"The book is worth reading since it highlights the issues of underlying suppositions in a verbal exchange. Focusing on this will surely save much frustration. However I can't say that I have run into any of her 8 standard verbal attacks. The chapters on body languange, as well as gender language styles are all quite dated."
193056,1,Plantronics 510 Voyager,Plantronics Voyager 510 Bluetooth Headset with Multipoint Technology [Retail Packaged]The headset is comfortable and easy to wear. The volume controls on the headset also works well and can be used.The mute button is very small and difficult to access during a call making it almost impossible to use. The mic has low volume and there is no way of increasing the mic volume which makes it difficult for people listening to hear you.
193087,1,For the first two months....,"For the first two months this headset is just what the doctor ordered. However, after two months (12 hour daily use) you will find it disconnects itself from your phone, and then eventually it will not turn on if you happen to have it off nor will it turn off if you happen to have it on. I have tried this same headset five *5* times. Now 500 dollars later over the past year, I have decided to blackball this product. The other day I bought the Voyager Pro for 89.99 at Best Buy. I will wait to write a review, but for now it is working well and in fact, it feels better on my ear than the 510 ever did."
193115,1,Arrived broken,"Packaging seemed perfect, however 1 glass was shattered. When I called customer service they requested photo proof of broken glass. I never got around to it. So they get this review for not accepting my word."
193307,1,Defective Product,"The skin I received was defective. The camera, charger, volume, etc wholes were all in the wrong place. Even for $.97 it wasn't worth the shipping I paid."
193337,1,Hmm,"Well, first of all, I love books by R.L.Stine. But this one was one of the worst. The book title gives a lot away; the ending was confusing and disappointing. There are lots of ""predictions"" in there that makes readers dread if the main character is going to die or not, but well, I thought it was rather forced in. The characters were not involving. I especially disliked the very first part about ""camping."" You should skip this one if you're reading all of the Nightmare Room series. Not enthralling or involving."
193349,1,QUE PASA CON LA GENTE LATINA????,"ESTE DVD CONTIENE TODO EL MATERIAL ADICIONAL QUE UNO DESEA PERO LAMENTABLEMENTE LAS PRODUCTORAS SE OLVIDAN O A MI PARECER SIMPLEMENTE NO LES INTERESA EL PUBLICO LATINO Y POR LO TANTO NO HAY SUBTITULOS EN CASTELLANO MAS QUE SIMPLEMENTE EN LAS PELICULAS Y ASI NO ES, NO ME PARECE JUSTO YA QUE NOSOTROS TAMBIEN SOMOS UN GRAN PUBLICO QUE CONSUME ESTOS PRODUCTOS Y POR CONSIGUIENTE NO APOYAMOS A LA PIRATERIA."
193361,1,Should Have Known Better But Hoped...,"Really wanted this to be a nice, action, set-in-space,flick BUT what I got was a poor version of ""Escape from NY"". Do not recommend."
193410,1,Wont hold more than a few sheets,"Very weak binding. back is sturdy. if you want to put 10 sheets in it will work. anything more, go for a different brand."
193447,1,Don't bother--you can have my copy.,"I am a Sting fan from way back, and I always appreciate his willingness to try new things. I am also a classical music afficionado, however, and this CD was a complete disappointment. Not only has his shimmering tenor of yesteryear vanished entirely from misuse, but his voice is just not well suited to this material. Given that he is not trained in this genre, he doesn't have the foggiest idea how to interpret this beautiful, subtle and finely nuanced repertoire. I found it not only amateurish, but basically unlistenable. So let me give you a clue on this one--don't bother, you can have my copy."
193493,1,wrong country ...,"unfortunately it said no place in the describtion, that thid book is only for cars sold in the US. As I'm not living in the US my car has some different features (like engine) that are not described in the book. Therefore the book is not of as much use to me as I hoped."
193504,1,If it looks too good to be true...,"It probably is. I got these for fun to see if they worked, it seems that they are just full of protein that makes you gain weight everywhere, not just your boobies. :("
193513,1,SIB-100 Photo in a box,"Upon opening the box and unpacking the lights I noticed parts missing (they had fallen off). The kit is a good idea but this one is quite cheap, the tripod is useless and will not support a DSLR - I tried and no luck as it would not lock. The components were undersized and cheaply made. The fabric is good, not great but good -- the box is difficult to keep square with the small velcro tabs. The lamps over heat in minutes and take quite a long time to cool down. Your better off looking elsewhere."
193646,1,The original issue? Great! The reissue? VOMIT.,"Prospective purchasers should be aware that this is the reissue of the '96 album (originally issued with different cover art and several extra tracks.) While the original was an epic, sweeping album, the reissue removes a good deal of samples, reworks guitar lines and, in its biggest sin, removes the original choirs from Love Never Dies pt. 1 and replaces them with canned, midi choirs. The same album, only steamed, starched, pressed and sterilized. Yuck."
193665,1,"Very, very disappointed","I bought this for my dog last July and it started coming apart at the seams of the 'patchwork' top in just a couple of months. I turned it over and in no time flat, a torn place appeared on the solid back fabric. It's very, very thin cheap fabric. The lining on the inner pad is very, very thin, cheap muslin and came apart as the outer fabric was coming apart. It's been ready for the garbage with green fiber-fill everywhere. I got mine, at Amazon on sale for $23, because it is so very pretty. If they came along for under $10, I might order another one because they're so soft and pretty and comfortable for my very old Rottweiler's bones - and she loved it so she's very disappointed, too. She messes with it seemingly trying to fix it...it's sad. I can tell you this, if I'd paid one cent more for it, I'd have returned it right then and there the day it was delivered!"
193710,1,"Useless, Use a pen and paper instead","I was so excited to use this product because of the great reviews and it just seemed like a very functional gadget. When my daughter was born, I only used it to check the time. I recorded everything by pen and paper - the last time she ate, slept, pooped, etc. for myself as a reminder and to report to my pediatrician her activities. Plus, my baby told me when it was time to feed, when she pooped, when it's time to sleep again, etc... This item is useless."
193741,1,SKIP THIS DVD! IT ISN'T WORTH IT!,"Because the Superbit DVD's require so much information, special features are removed. ""The Patriot"" Superbit DVD has ALL the same special features from the Special Edition DVD, except for the entertaining commentary track by Roland Emmerich and Dean Devlin. Skip this DVD. There's even more features on the Single Disc.Movie Grade: A+Special Edition DVD Grade: A+Superbit DVD Edition: F"
193783,1,DLO Transpod FM Transmitter,"After much review, I decided on the DLO Transpod FM Transmitter for my wife's car. The Amazon website indicated that this unit was compatible with my iPod Touch, however this was not true.When I received the unit, the setup was very easy & the sound was fine. Unfortunately, the device would not hold my iPod Touch when it was in its case, so that was definitely an issue. Also, once I plugged in the unit, the iPod displayed that it was incompatible & could not be charged via the DLO Transod.Overall, my issue is with Amazon & the incorrect description which I based my purchase on. The unit itself seemed ok, however be mindful if you have a case for your iPods as this does not seem like it will handle any units with cases."
193846,1,Twins charm sterling silver,"The gold plated and silver Twin charms arrived and I was very dissapointed, they both feel very flimsy and not very solid. Compared to a 25 Pandora or Troll bead, there is a big difference in the quality of the items. I was shocked to find that the writing saying Twins isn't legible to the point where it is almost microscopic. This kind of defeats the point of this item, as that was my reason for purchasing it."
193849,1,Where's the spanking??,"Out of 65 pages, maybe 17 have spanking illustrations. Great art, but title of book is a MAJOR misrepresentation, more erotic."
193862,1,A waste of time,"I never read the books this was based on, I agree with everything said about the plot rambling on and on with no point. I was left wondering where Deborah went?! She was rescued alive and then you never see her again, her husband who was killed earlier also never reappears when all the other characters ""come back to life"" in the river world.I kept watching hoping something would pull it all together, but it never happened. The crazy ending makes me believe that it is destined to happen over and over for eternity."
193886,1,Do Not Buy A BROTHER copier/fax,It is the Error 41 that one of the previous reviewers mentions that makes this a terrible product. I bought two of these - one for two separate locations. One came up with ERROR 41 within about 3 months - Brother replaced it at no charge. Within a year the other one came up with ERROR 41 - it was past warranty - and now the one they replaced has ERROR 41. The price is not worth it. I have no trust in Brother.
193927,1,Save your Money,"An obvious and intentional attack on all things Southern. Mr. Chadwick should be ashamed of himself. As an historian, myself, Mr. Chadwick is more wrong than he will ever know or, at least, will admit."
193972,1,Not for sensitive skin/eyes,"Strong aroma which takes maybe 10 minutes to fade. But after about 1/2 hour, my eyes started burning. Skin feels smooth, but not worth the other effects."
193973,1,Garbage!,"I have this movie, I picked it up from a 3.00 bin at my local store. Well, I paid 3.00 too much for it as far as I'm concerned. It's packed with nonsense talking, no action, a FRIGGEN DEMON baby goes around with this cry that goes on FOREVER, and is completely redundant. I mean, I was so sick of that cry I wanted to shoot my ears off. This movie was SO BAD I'd say it deserves a ZERO. SOOO BAD!! NOt one good thing about it, not even the ugly girl in the shower."
194135,1,Textbook,The reading is a bit complex. A lot of information. Definitely a read that needs a constructive guidance from a professor.
194148,1,"desparately needed, but not there yet","Product worked for a few minutes, then crashed repeatedly on new, loaded iBook."
194159,1,Awful; Don't waste your money!!,"I rented this from my local video store. I am a horror movie fan; I even ocassionally enjoy cheesy predictable horror movies if they have some redeeming aspect. ""The Tomb"" has none. The production quality of this movie is awful. It is like an 80's porn flick (not that I have seen one, lol). The music is equally awful. The acting is awful. The plot (and I use that term lighlty) is awful and, as far as I can tell, is a direct rip-off of the ""Saw"" movies. Frankly, I couldn't bear to watch it after about 20 minutes and I turned it off. It appeared it would be quite gory from the few minutes that I watched but what is gore without anything else to support it? Boring. Avoid this movie at all costs."
194160,1,How a Director has stolen his story form a book,"Vivek Agrawal has completely stole the story from a book ""If Only it where true"" also republished under the name ""Just like heaven"" when it was made into a movie by Dreamworks. It's really amazing that not only he stole the story, dialogues of the books (even the name of the dog in the movie is the same than in the book) and still put his name in the credit as a writer ! Shame on him and the production who does such things. Making movies by stealing stories from others !"
194240,1,"Flat, boring and a waste of time",This book just teaches you how to have a worse eating disorder. The author creates a simplistic view of the forces behind eating disorders.
194304,1,"like every other gamepad I had for the pc, a piece of junk","This pad fall in the catagorey of all the games pads for the pc that I have tried. CRAP!!!! It broke after a week of play. The software that came with it was good, but all the software in the world can't make up. I threw it into the street in frustration. Why can't they make a durable game pad for pc's? They have them for console systems."
194338,1,Liquid not needed,I've used the TENS unit with this solution first and not using it.... don't really know the need for this solution....don't really think it's needed....
194413,1,Dryer than the Saharan desert!,I don't understand why any professor in their right mind would select such a terrible book for their students. I do not agree with the reviewer who said its easy enough for the college level. If I could give it a negative score I would. The terminology is extremely technical and math focused.
194445,1,This is definitely not as good as their first album.,"It must have cost a lot of money to produce this album because the acoustics and the liner picture of the Koa Taylor 12 are beautiful. Unfortunately the music isn't. Bob Taylor admits on his cut that he is not an accomplished musician. He's right, he should stick to making guitars and not playing them. I wasted my money on this album, don't you waste yours."
194580,1,The little drainspout that couldnt,"Doesnt work that great and is difficult to control... great concept, bad execution. Collapses and the water just collects in the tube. Not the greatest."
194632,1,Ouch! I Can't Imagine Eisler Had Any Creative Input!,"The fact that this was straight to video should have been enough of a sign. I like others thought I would givethis a watch due to having read the series. I sure hope that Eisler didn't write the screenplay and if he did that he was paid enough so that he can create a fund to reimburse those of us that purchased or rented this movie.Some salient factors:1.) I generally don't mind subtitles. However, this was not billed as a foreign film? The majority of the dialogue is in Japanese with English subtitles, except for when Gary Oldman rants in American accent or the John Rain character speaks acceted English (was he not born and raised in the US?)2.) For all the points made by other review, the movie storyline did no service to written series. The Bourne series is proof that both the books and movies can be entertainingFar be it from me to cast asperions on how anyone makes a living, however, Gary Oldman must have needed a check!"
194663,1,WACK ALBUM,"This sh** is WACK full stop.I aint buying this sh** or waste my time downloading it.50 cents is now pop, while Ja Rule is gangster with ""clap back"". In my opinion Ja is a better lyricist. 50 only dissed other artists (esp Ja Rule) to comeup in tha rap game.Hold your own 50. Seems he couldnt with this album, he aint no gangster, jus a wanna be, - shame.Its also a shame Jay Z has retired.RAP IS DYING.Please could rappers please release new good albums for the rap industry and you will be rewarded with respect and good money.Rubbish albums such as ""beg 4 mercy"" would be rejected and burnt.Thank you."
194669,1,Un grand coup de marketing!!!!,Eh ben franchement cet album mis a part 3 ou 4 chansons granx max n'est pas terrible que ca!! les musique font vraiement pitié encore une chance que 50 cent est là pour limiter les dégats en étant pratiquement sur toutes les chanson moi voilà cet album est plus un grand coup de marketing genre 50 fait de la pub pour ces anciens copains (qui le sont tjs) pour lancer un album trop incipide!! Ecoutez le bien en magasin avant de l'acheter!!
194689,1,Is this bait and switch?,"When we ordered the splint, we recall the picture showing a different brand than the one that that was received. It didn't fit as well as the brand we thought was ordered which was a replacement for a worn out bunion splint. When we emailed the company, we got no reply. Our solution will be to avoid the Atrex Company."
194862,1,girlfiend broke shoe in 1/2 hour,"I didn't expect the best shoe set for $29.99, but I certainly didn't expect my girlfriend to break it on the third game. I'd like a replacement set by Monday July 25th."
194863,1,BROKE - FIRST USE,"2 of the 4 horseshoes broke in half during the first (normal) use. They are not solid steel, it looks more like some sort of composite type of material. Would not reccommend, sorry."
194895,1,boring,i have many paranormal/documentary dvd's and found this to be quite boring I really disliked the medium Cathy. I found her quite annoying. Have seen much better. I disliked that they did not give a good history about each inn. Felt a little left out in the cold about some of the facts they were talking about and felt they should have given more information.
194899,1,"Very Cheap, Very Bad!!!","I baught a 6gb drive & after only 3 months of minimal use it failed. I tried to call the phone # on the warranty card but it is disconnected. I tried to put in a service request on the website, but it requires a serial # which is not on the device. I have received no responce to any of my inquiries."
194930,1,This album is terrible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"If anyone likes this album, they are nuts. I'm glad that I borrowed it from a friend, instead of buying it because I would've wasted my money. The only song worth listening to is It Ain't My Fault 2. Silkk is a good rapper and it shows that he rushed on this album. His last album was much better. Silkk don't rush your next albums. If you want to buy a NL album that came out this year buy Snoop's and check out C-Murder's. Buy Master P's greatest hits when that comes out later this year."
194984,1,Baby Milesones Book,"Low ratng is only because the book was out of stock, so I never received it, but I got a credit with Amazon."
195078,1,Not my type of book,"This book is more for teenagers. I was not in the right mind set when I first started the book, so I wasn't even sure if it was a boy or girl talking."
195172,1,Same Number but Different Product,These bulbs have the same product number as the burned-out ones I need to replace. But they are about half an inch longer. I am hesitant to use them in the fixture which has a quite shallow lens.
195213,1,I can't tell you how worthless this album is,"I saw the Mr. Moonlight tour back in 1995 when they came to Wichita's West Bank Stage. They did play maybe three or four songs from this worthless album, but they also weren't playing all their hits very good either. Really, it's a waste of tape to be quite honest. I can't think of any of the supergroups that were hot in the 70's or 80's that made albums in the 90's and later that have made a good album, except, maybe, a handful from Dio turned the trick. ""Hey all you classic rock groups, think about hanging it up if you can't make something really good"". Okay? Just steer clear of Mr.Moonlight!!!"
195291,1,Allen Tension Bar,This bar would not adjust to my bicycle. It slipped all the way up to the handlebars. This caused my bike to practically touch the ground. I don't know if the adapter would be good on a bike that it would properly fit.
195297,1,"Wrong, wrong, wrong","The product was sent to me, correct color but wrong size. I returned it only to receive it again, correct color but wrong size. Very misleading description of the product and/or size of the case."
195328,1,Paranoid,"Author states the obvious - USA very powerful, controlled by our most powerful citizens, they fight to maintain our wealth and dominance, many suffer from a lack of ethics, and the fight over a precious resource (oil) remains a main source of conflict. Author ignores the ingenuity, optimism, and resolve of the American people to consistently do what is right and necessary. We will get rid of bad leaders, solve the oil crisis with new technologies, and continue to lead."
195332,1,Foreign low cost film with little or no plot,"I normally only write about videos that have few comments and are either way over or under rated. This rating totally missed the mark. Foreign ""college students/reporters"" wandering without purpose trying to find/film WAR CRIMES. The bad guys are over played and lack any degree of believability. The ""students"" with a newish jeep brought lots of gas (stored somewhere) forgot to bring any oil. Oil leak only appeared before the engine burns up after perhaps hundreds of miles. The plot is then for these students to carry someone, an idiot that stood up to get a better view of the killing, gets shot and this friend killed. He is so near death but they decide to carry him in a stretcher they just happened to have with them, over hill and dale and woods before he finally looses that last ounce of blood. I will let you evaluate the BIG ending for yourself. Total waste of time and money. Don't even rent it!"
195503,1,Old and outdated,This book is strictly for starters into SAP and even for the folks who have a decent idea on how IT consulting works this book is a dead investment of both time and money.
195560,1,REWEINED MY HOME BUTON,it destroyed my home button. had to replace it.... cost me another 25 dollars + 5 hours of my time to replace it... wouldn't buy again... it also just made my scratches on my iPhone 4 worse... horrible product....
195571,1,Clarity Amplified Corded Trimline Phone,"Even though I do not have a hearing loss, I have to press the amplification button to hear the connection. The phone transmits too softly unless the amplification button is used. Also there is static and an echo on the line. The keypad does not engage smoothly. It could be the reason that I am experiencing wrong number connections - numbers not even close to what I thought I had dialed."
195609,1,Double-dipping is an insult to fans!,"I agree with several others here who chastised Universal for double-dipping with ""It Ain't Hay"" on this release. It's a slap in the face for all the fans who bought all the previous releases, as I have. I'm not spending over $80 for one film. All this does is make Universal (and all the other studios that do this, Paramount and Warner included) look very bad, and confirms my decision to stop giving these arrogant companies my money by not ""upgrading"" my entire DVD collection to Blu-Ray and buy a good upconverting 1080p DVD player instead."
195646,1,Defective rubber,I will not buy this brand again. Bought two sets and both fell apart after about a month of use.
195680,1,Do Not Waste Your Money,"This guitar is a big disappointment. It doesn't work with the Guitar Hero II game. The blue button sends the signal that the green button is supposed to send and yellow sends the signal that the red button is supposed to send. Green and red don't work at all. The strap is also hard to deal with and wants to fall off. If the guitar's buttons had worked and I had gotten to play it, I'm sure the strap would have driven me crazy. I'm going to order the Red Octane guitar straight from them."
195698,1,Fraud,"I read this once, and enjoyed the writing. I later learned that the tribe the author claims to be a part of, in fact, does not exist. It's sad to see Native culture co-opted and fictionalized, but that's exactly what this book is."
195728,1,I would not recommend this Product,"I purchased this product in November 2002 and have probably watched a dozen or so movies on it. On day 80 of owning it the brains became scrambled and it would not open the door, rotate discs etc. After having to go through the hassle of taking it to a warranty service center it went out again this time out of the 90 day warranty. Since its has been more than 90 days since I purchased it, labor to look at it now is $70 which is not worth it. We probably only used the DVD player once a week and did not abuse it or mishandle it. The electronics seem to be overly sensitive because we barely used it. I just went out and purchased a panasonic which will hopefully have better results. I would not take my chances on a toshiba if I were you."
195806,1,What happened??,"I've always been a big Stabbing Westward fan. Ungod is an amazing industrial/rock dark album. Wither, Blister.. has it's moments. Darkest Days is excellent. My favorites sometimes switch between Ungod and DD. This self titled piece of crap is a sorry attempt at selling out and not making it. Filled with mostly soft acoustic tracks that lack any lyrical depth leave the earlier SW fans confused. I might have listened to this album once.. And to be fair I had high hopes, but I really can't imagine anyone who likes the other SW albums to get into this."
195880,1,All downhill after the 1st 10 minutes.,"The story is nonsense, and I mean NON SENSE. The bad guy gets the final piece from Conan's father than can't figure out for how many years what to do? I assume PURE meant ""virgin"" and all indications thru out the movie with the bitchy daughter would lead one to conclude that. She drinks the blood of the main female character AFTER she's had an orgy nite with Conan and what? The whole s.....t with the quest to get all the pieces to achieve immortality is pure nonsense!"
195885,1,Juvenile crap,The original Conan was brilliant because it was un-self-consciously juvenile. This one sucked because it was pandering to male juvenile fantasies rather than being an innocent expression of them.
196009,1,Not worth buying,"I purchased this tape and book package to acquaint myself with Swedish for a trip we are taking. I wanted to listen to it during my work commute. The tape is hard to follow without the book, is not consistent with information in the book and moves ahead much too quickly for a beginner. Don't bother."
196036,1,Sloppy and Disjointed,"The only strong point of this book is the character development. Other than that, Sheffield takes a rather intriguing scenario and promptly drives it into the ground. There are too many concurrent sub-plots to be able to fully develop and resolve in a book of this length. The result is a lot of jumping around from one group of characters to another until there is abrupt ending in the last chapter whithout resolution of many issues. It doesn't even tantalize enough for one to look to a sequel for the continued development of plotlines."
196143,1,What were they thinking?,I was looking forward to more Deep Space 9 but this is not Deep Space 9. The TV characters are way off from how they were on the show and the new characters are stuck in badly and are just lame.I gave it two stars instead of one because the writing is pretty good but the author should go do something else and not spend his time doing Deep Space 9 wrong.
196286,1,don't get this version,"I bought this movie thinking it would be the same version that I had rented before. It's not. For some reason, this film cuts out all the good scenes. I don't know why. Don't get this version. The movie is a good one, but this version will disappoint you."
196307,1,is Boris Morros reliable? Amazon provides again,"Was snot convinced the author told the entire story, and omitted parts not favorable to him.As to the paperback I received, this ws the first time what I received as a used book was in very poor condition.dan davis santa maria, ca"
196353,1,disappointed,"Her work is usually so much better, I had to force myself to finish the book. It jumped around too much,Have read better"
196363,1,Isle of Dogs,"Okay, Okay, I am a great fan of Patricia Cornwell and most of her books. I was disappointed by this particular one. Ms. Cornwell has been becoming more and more weird with her books. Her earlier ones are much better written with a better plot and more believable characters. If you are a Cornwell reader who loves Kay Scapetta, stay away from this one. No, it wasn't funny. The plot was lousy and the characters......Enough said."
196372,1,Disappointing,"As an avid Patricia Cornwell reader I could not believe this book was written by her. It was horrible, I failed to find the humor in it (guess if you like very dark humor you could find it) and the characters were poorly described and the plot very fragmented. I put the book down after reading half of it, I just wasn't motivated to finish. Picked it up several months later, and finishing it was something I regretted wasting my time on."
196373,1,Cornwell Needs to Stick to Kay Scarpetta,"I have read everything Patricia Cornwell has written and I have thoroughly enjoyed each one, even though the Hammer books are not my favorites.Isle of Dogs was a dog, in my opinion. It's only purpose was to poke fun at people and had no story line that I could determine other than speaking of the bowels of the Governor at every oportunity.I will continue to read Cornwell only if she returns to the forensic theme."
196391,1,I DUNNO ABOUT THIS ALBUM,"I love much of his other work. But I'm not feelin' this album at all. I really wanted to dig it, but it's on some other tip. I doubt I'll be listening to this album much. I hope he comes stronger next album!"
196397,1,Another Freakin' Nu-Metal Band...I'd rather listen to static.,"This album is funny because it exposes nu-metal for what it is. Without any power chords to back them up, Led Zeppelin, Uriah Heep (the most underrated band of all time), Guns 'n' Roses(November Rain), Ozzy Osbourne (Goodbye to Romance), and even System of a Down (who are NOT nu-metal) still rocked. On the other hand, a nu-metal band, any nu-metal band, couldn't do it. Thank you, Godsmack, for ruining my radio listening experience for almost half a year with ""Touche""... God, what a horrible song."
196434,1,Let's make a Protest to Lucasfilm,"Why don't we all return these DVD's right to Lucasfilm as in protest for delivering such low quality products?That way George Lucas will finally understand that we didn't want what he's been selling. We could send back to him these awful DVD's along with the following request:We want the original, unadultered Star Wars (no ""Episode IV: A New Hope"" nonsense):- Remastered- In ANAMORPHIC Widescreen- In Dolby Digital 6.1 AND DTS 6.1- With the ORIGINAL ARTWORK- Comentary by George Lucas AND The CastBonus Disc including:- From script to screen- Picture Gallery- Deleted Scenes (with commentary)- Original ""Making Of"" featuretes- Original trailersThird Bonus Disc including:- The new Star Wars versionEaster Egg:- The Star Wars Holiday SpecialI suppose that all of the people at Lucasfilm including Georgie himself are considered ""geniuses""...then how in the world haven't they understood that THIS is what WE WANT? Is it really too hard to comprehend?"
196471,1,Do not Buy,Product crashes and crashes. I thought it was my machine. read the pinnacle forums look for export error: real time. If you do not trust me. do your homework. pinnacle has issues.
196490,1,too immature a product to buy,"The first one I got had a dead radio. The second one would only work if the SSID was left at the default of ""linksys"". I had to change the SSID of my access point and all the adapters to get it to work! Even then it loses the signal frequently and currently won't get an address from DHCP. A good idea, but I'd wait until they work the bugs out of it."
196554,1,Yikes,I was looking for a light-hearted good read and came across Mr. Maybe . I almost stopped reading part way because I disliked the main character so much. I finished the book and found it utterly predictable.
196580,1,Probably nice....if it worked,"Purchased this portable DVD player last Christmas. Unfortunately, after it was opened it was clear something was wrong as the motor made grinding sounds and it wouldn't load (naturally...) a DVD. I had chosen it based on reviews at the time and the price.Alas, we shipped it back to Amazon and got a refund with no hassles! Because of the lack of quality control, I can only give it one star."
196673,1,No closed captioning,"I give this DVD a ZERO. Docurama didn't care enough to caption this DVD for hearing-impaired people.With the DVD being totally useless to us and all, I shouldn't care about saying anything nice about this DVD.Shame on you Docurama for NEVER captioning your DVDs all these years. :("
196708,1,Stick with the Roan Group releases,"Having purchased Vintage's version of ""39 Steps"" [Montage of Mysteries, along with ""Rich and Strange"" and ""Young and Innocent""], and having been satisfied with 2 of the three transfers on that DVD, I decided to take a chance on their Roy Rogers release. While watchable, it is clear not a lot of care was given in transferring these movies. Some of the text on the opening credits is so out of focus it can't be read.My recommendation....stick with the Roan Group releases (Volumes 1-3).[Also, avoid the truncated ""Happy Trails Theatre"" releases by Good Times.]"
196722,1,not user friendly,"Received the item, took me a while until I could understand the set-up instructions. The first DVD I put into the slot would not record and apparently got hung up inside when I tried to eject it. Could never get it out."
196852,1,ok product,"does the job, but overall it is not made very well. It frays when you cut it, which can make it unsightly if you are hanging a LED TV on your wall and want to hide the cords. If you are simply using it for cord management behind a desk it will work well"
196858,1,Don't buy this!,This is a review of a book that is no longer in print or available (Business Research by Charles Smith).
196865,1,100% ripped off!,Shame on Amazon for allowing such deceptive positioning for this product. Who pays $3.33 for a single roll of paper towels?
196870,1,"I returned it because of noisy CD mechanism, contant hiss","I bought this system for my kitchen, to provide background music during dinner.I wound up returning it, because of the background hiss other reviewers have noticed (I tried moving it to several different locations, but always had the hiss.), and because of the noisy CD mechanism. We would set it to shuffle-play 3 CDs, and would enjoying dinner, but everytime the unit switched from one CD to another, converstation stoped and everyone turned to look at what was making all that racket. (And we have two small kids, so we're used to racket.)Sound quality was good, if you turned it up loud enough to overpower the hiss (i.e full power, which isn't all that loud). I liked the small remote, and it had all the features I needed.As I mentioned, I wound up returning it, and really wouldn't recommend it."
196882,1,Maybe I expected too much,"I am big fan of the Spinal Tap-Waiting for Guffman-etc. movies and had a lot of hope that Comic Book - The Movie would be a cool addition to my collection. After watching, I am disappointed. There are some funny moments from time to time and Mark Hamil, Donna D'Errico, and Tom Kenny (and his family) are pretty good. The movie doesn't have enough of a story to keep me engaged between funny moments. When the funny moments arrive, they aren't enough to compensate for the rest of the movie. Would I buy it again? Probably, but for less than $10. Get this one used - I'd bet a lot of copies will be in the used video bin in the very near future.In closing, I think Mark Hamil showed a lot of promise here and I hope we see him do more funny stuff."
197087,1,wrong!,This place will ship you something different from what the picture looks. I called they handled the return process ok. buyer beware!!
197108,1,A Complete Waste Of Time,"This book reads like two high school boys got high and decided to have someone scribble down their rantings, then a wealthy daddy paid to have the book published out of his own pocket because no one would otherwise touch it! There are far better ways to spend money. And, did I have to give this trash even one star!?"
197240,1,Stupendously bad,"I usually try to avoid writing a negative review for anything, since I personally feel that if I have read something awful it is best to forget about it and move on. But I really must let this out and hopefully warn the still-doubtful. This book was bad-- at first laughably bad, in a so-bad-it's-funny sort of way, but by the end, it was just agonizingly, embarassingly bad. Please. I actually wept in frustration the 47th time I read about Wigg's left eyebrow raised ""sardonically,"" and I can't even describe the torment of how often Mr. Newcomb insists on using the word ""indeed."" Indeed, indeed, indeed. I read the whole mess, hoping against hope that the book would become, at the very least, tolerable-- instead I found myself itching to scratch out my own eyes in disgust. Please, everyone, I am not kidding-- save yourself, and avoid this foulness."
197247,1,Miffed by marinade,"I was miffed by a recipe in this book that called for me to marinate london broil on the counter for 2 hours, then freeze for later consumption. I followed the recipe, but after 1 1/2 hours the meat felt warm to the touch and I began to wonder if this was a good idea. Checked meat safety tips online and every one stated: ""If your recipe calls for marinating on the counter...don't do it"". I expect I will now throw away almost 4 lbs. of london broil as I fear bacteria growth while it was marinating on my counter. This was a big disappointment for me and a waste of money. Other recipes seem interesting, don't know if I'll try them yet."
197250,1,"EH... AS FAR AS HORROR MOVIES GO, NO BIG DEAL...",... there's a strong made-for-TV vibe about this movie... 'nuff said.
197253,1,Very Poor Quaility Reproduction,"Too Dark, No subtiles, extremly poor audio, could not view entire movie. Would not recomend this seller for any purchase of DVD'S"
197291,1,"Entertaining, for a while","Arms of Nemesis is a generic murder mystery that happens to be set in ancient Rome. Saylor's descriptions of Roman habits and culture are interesting and some might even be accurate. They make the book amusing for a while. But after you realize they are there only for effect, you conclude that the plot and characters might just as well be in Pittsburgh. About half way through this book I couldn't help thinking I'd read it before, several times.If like a slightly different version of a standard potboiler, give it a try. If you want something unique, keep looking."
197313,1,Spoon rest,"It arrived well packaged and in a timely manner but I was disappointed in the quality since the wording on the spoonrest is crooked and the sample picture depicts the label boarder as cobalt blue, which is my kitchen accent color, but it arrived with a black boarder. Also it's on the small side for use with cooking utensils."
197329,1,An accident waiting to happen,"My husband an I recently purchased this appliance. After the cheap plastic top cracked and blew off (spewing hot coffee all over) I repeatedly emailed Melitta but have been ignored. And yes, the metal top is impossible to open. No more Melitta products for us."
197419,1,Almost a great player,"This is my second RCA Lyra MP3 player. Unfortunately, I liked my previous player better than this one (I forgot the model # of my previous player). I had no problems with the sound, setup or downloading of music. My biggest complaint is the layout of the MP3 player. It is almost impossible to use the navigation buttons while excercising or moving. It gets much worse when you fit the MP3 player in the plastic holder for your belt loop. I returned the unit b/c it was too painful to use!!"
197538,1,Why We Need To Protect Ocean Creatures.,"Let me quote. ""A 7-foot blue shark hung from the Hannah Boden's rigging, where it thrashed wildly. Swaddled in rags saturated in lighter fluid, the shark was slashed at with knives and poked with gaffs like a giant pinata until a single match set it ablaze. Slowly, the thrashing reduced to a writhing, and finally a squirm.""I don't think these people are professional fishermen. I think they are sociopaths, choosing the anonymity of the ocean to hide behavior towards animals for which they would be jailed if done on land. Shame on Greenlaw and all her crew. This book was filled with an unmistakable, greed-driven hatred of the ocean and all its creatures."
197547,1,"A little too far ""out there""!","I made it through the first half of the book, which is a narrative of the golfing adventure of the author with Shivas Irons, a pro at the Burningbush golf course in Scotland. Even this part of the book is a fairly strange read, dealing with the ultimate meaning of life as it realtes to golf, but involving way too much mysticism.The second half, which is supposed to be the author's notes about the golfing philosophy of Shivas Irons, was just not readable to me. I just had way too many other books on my reading list to spend any more time trying to fight my way through this stuff!"
197570,1,not very interesting,and couldn't identify with any of the characters. the story was weak uninteresting and irrelevant. Only made it to about the 5th chapter
197621,1,Not Alive,Do yourself a favor and buy It's Alive instead. This one is a tired band going through the motions. Any version of the Ramones just going through the motions does not work. Joey sounds like he is totally bored.
197674,1,Horrible!,"Like many other XP users, tried it. Went through the setup and it was recognized as Prolific USB-to-Serial Bridge (COM3). Tried to hook it up to my device that uses a serial port and it was never recognized. If you have XP, I suggest not buying this product."
197708,1,Horrible,"This stuff was worthless, we covered our daughter (Seriously COVERED) for 4th of july fireworks. Firewors where about 45 minutes long. She has so many bites we are taking her to the doctor tomorrow because here eyes and ankles have swollen."
197737,1,Lasted for a few years,"This was a decent item i remember buying from a target/walmart type store. super excited to get a volume to price ratio that was good for me. While yes it did work for awhile it did eventually bow and i mean every piece of press board bowed. i kinda put it in a closet and forgot about it over this last year and when I checked on it all the shelves had fallen down onto the tops of the dvds below. this happen on each level. I think it lasted for about 3 to 4 years but now it pretty useless, unless some one knows how to warp press wood. the problem with the design is that it just doesn't have enough support, the walls are thin and the pegs are short."
197746,1,No Japanese track,I find the lack of the orignal language track to be quite disrespectful to the original.
197752,1,extremly salty,I was expecting cheese as it states. I can't even tell you how salty these cheese crisps are. I brought them in to my job has three different people try them and I couldn't give then away. Every person I had try said they were gross.... Please re think this product.
197844,1,Moroso 74103 Battery Terminal Disconnect Switch,This product was advertised as fitting a Toyota Prius battery. It did not fit on the battery terminals (connections too large) and was unusable.
197888,1,Antonline - poor return policy,"Beware buying this product from Antonline, they have a poor return policy:Unfortunately, products with customer caused item, packaging or accessory damage; OR that are missing items, accessories or packaging; OR with activated software or intellectual property agreements; OR with missing packaging or accessories; OR that cannot be resold as new - exactly as you received the product are not eligible for return or refund."
197896,1,A NO-NO FOR ME!!!!!!!!!!!1,"I really enjoyed Undercurernts, the first book with Lou Bolt so I thought I would get the second one, The Angel Maker. Boy was that a mistake. It was way to bloody and gross for me. I may try the third one in the series but if like this one I will be through. The Angel Maker is bad, bad. I did not even finish the book and that is very unusual for me. When Dr. Elden Tegg cut the heart out of a man that was still alive and carried it, bouncing it like ball in his hand, down to the cages and fed it to one of his dogs, I left it. To much, way to much for me. If yo want a book full of blood and gore this is the book for you. If you don't, then pass this one by."
197959,1,Nothing new,"This book may be great for overseas travels, but nothing in the book couldn't be told to you by another mother for free."
197972,1,A dud.,"Try and get to listen to this recording before you buy it. It is not one of his better CDs. His earlier works are WAY better. I will continue to support Jarre's music, this is just not one of his better works. Oh well."
197975,1,Big Fat Disappointment!!!,"This book is trashier than junk food! Sorry, Dr. Phil but your venture into the weightloss megabuck industry with this nonsensical book is nothing more than a cheap attempt to again capitalize on desparate people seeking an answer to this highly complex issue! Please don't waste any money on this book, it really doesn't provide any lasting help or even realistic insight. Dr. Phil should also look at his own current weight and if he is following his own advice than this should send up a warning flag to potential buyers."
197987,1,lame,"i have a deep appreciation for fine literature and unfortunately this just isn't it. the themes were obvious and irritating. i found it superficial and thoroughly uninteresting. None of the characters were fully developed and although extremely short, i found it difficult to complete it."
198045,1,Not worth the time,"After reading this book in one day, my only reaction is: I want my time back. The story line and character development was stagnant. I do not recommend this book."
198055,1,Not worth the money at all,Not baf but the feet fall off leaving sharp nails on the bottom. I cut opened my hand and scratched my leather car seat and hardwood floor.
198082,1,"DO YOU LIKE IT....DO YOU WANT,IS THA BEST CUT THAT I LIKED FROM THIS !!!",P...WHAT WAS YOU THINKING?????
198124,1,Useful but should be included,Do you need some extra protection on your awesome new gauge? Yes you do; but do you need to pay so much for a chunk of rubber? No. All I can say is; duct tape and inner tube. Be a man...
198183,1,NOT NEW!,"I purchased this CD thinking it would arrive in a sealed CD case as it was described as ""New"" however, the CD case was not sealed, therefore I cannot give this as a gift because it is obvious it is not new."
198186,1,Loud & not very efficient,"I'm a SAHM, and my daughter breastfeeds just fine, but I was told I'd need a pump anyway. This pump was given as a gift at my Shower, and I only have to use it about once a week when I'm really full and baby is sleeping (or she's already full off other breast). As time has gone by (my daughter is 3 months now) the pump seems to have lost some of it's suction power. I pump for 10 minutes...and end up with sore nipples, still full boobs and maybe an ounce of fore milk. I can hand express my milk better than this pump can get it out.I also don't like how LOUD this pump is. I have to pump in the bathroom under the stairs or else I might wake the neighborhood!I wish I could go back in time and take this item off my registry and replace it with a single manual pump. I feel bad so much money was spent on a product that just barely works."
198199,1,These are horrible.....,"These were expensive.....These are a P. O. S.If you dont know what POS is google it, because I cant say it on amazon. Basically, the layer has an OFFSET. The layers do not match in position. This will give you CRC errors if you have a file which is directly on a layer break, or at the end of the disk. DO NOT BUY, I REPEAT, DO NOT BUY.IM NOT SURE WHY MEMOREX HASNT RECALLED THEIR CRUMMY PRODUCT."
198482,1,Worthless cheap product,"I was planning on use this rings to make egg patties for breakfast... Not anymore. To begin with out of the box only 1 out of the 4 rings would lay flat, every other ring leaks when I would pour yolk mix into them. After storing them away they got deformed and leaked even more next time.Save your money... I actually had better results using a can of beans cut-open on both sides!"
198652,1,product unuseable,"All pills melted into a mass like bread dough. None useable, no separated pills after cutting open bottle. What do we do now?"
198669,1,Not For Me,"Well he says that 2002 is a year of palindromes - get it? MC Paul Barman comes across as just a showoff smart-aleck. This CD is not at all musical, nor poetic, nor inspired or inspiring. What do you get when you take away all that drives a great hip hop sound and just go through the motions with your thesaurus in one hand your hanky in the other? This CD."
198678,1,"Far too small, no accurate description of size","Very disappointed with this purchase. I needed replacement cushions for a pair of studio headphones (the kind that go around your ear, not just sit on top) There being no mention of the diameter, other then the 7x4.2x.5in, which can't be true. I assume the .5 is the thickness but I don't know what the 7x4.2 even is, only that it is not the diameter.I hoped these would be sized close enough to my headphones that they would fit, but when they arrived they're about an inch and a half in diameter, apparently for the sit on you ear type of headphonesDefinitely do NOT buy this product- far too expensive (I bought the more expensive ones because they most appeared to be the right size- quite a misleading description) and may not even be what you need."
198706,1,"Gum, yes, price no!",At the time of this writing the 3-pack is almost $13 dollars. I would be a moron to buy at this price when I can buy it for $2.88 per unit at my local grocery store.
198907,1,early greece,"this book is held in high honors by historians, but in contempt by archaeologists - and for good reason. if you want to understand a period of human history from which the literary evidence is virtually non-existent, you must incorporate other sources of evidence in your treaty. murray does not, and his vision of archaic greece is thus vastly different to the view of robin osbourne, whose ""greece in the making"" is a much better treatment of the archaic period than this. oswyn murray, although a vastly skilled historian and a wonderful scholar, just does not get it right.if you have no idea of what is going on during the 7th and 6th centuries BC and have this book at hand, by all means read it - but please keep in mind that there are much better treatments of the period available."
198973,1,Poor quality,"Poor quality for a Melissa and Doug toy. Holes for screw are too small, putting the truck together is difficult.Would not recommend."
199033,1,Not what I'd hoped for,I really liked the piece on the cover and assumed that all the pieces in the book would follow in the same vein and I was sorely disappointed when the book arrived and the projects are kinda crappy. There are a couple of things worth making but they didn't make the purchase worth the cost of the book. The how to part of the book isn't very good either. Explanations assume that the reader knows how to do things and there are very few pictures showing processes. Luckily I know what I'm doing!
199155,1,Not what I expected,"I picked up this album in a big box store. I had been looking for a good compilation album of some of ELP's hits, and this looked like it would do. Unfortunately, nowhere on the box does it say that it's a live album. I wouldn't have bought it if it had been labeled as such. Frankly I find some songs absulutely butchered by the long solo sequences, and the audience singing along in other songs just ruins the whole set for me."
199312,1,Doesn't fit properly,Doesn't fit on skillet . Seems to be a little to big in diameter . To sit securely on Lodge skillet I ordered with this. I ordered 8 inch skillet and lid and .It fits great.Edit: I ordered the chefs skillet this lid is made for the standard skillet. SKU L8SK3
199330,1,Dissapointed.,"True, the book contains many pearls of wisdom, but I was turned off by occasional hints of self-congratulations, and other mildly gauche aspects of the book.**Other unexpected aspects of the book are the frequent digressions to more general advice about how to live one's life, and the underlying Christian theme of the book.I sent it back, as I was looking for more of an etiquette-oriented book on building personal relationships.**Statements that the author ""is one of America's most influential and successful business leaders,"" are balderdash. This construction company owner is an unknown in the scope of the national business scene."
199331,1,Everyone Agrees!,"Everyone agrees that this doll needs more clothes. Lets face it, this doll needs more color, more wholsome outfits, better material, and Chelsea Churro Rocks! You should just read her review!"
199385,1,This is a badly made lot! Defective--beware.,I ordered both the 2Qt and 3QT of this non-stick pot by Cuisinart. There is a serious quality control issue. Neither of the lids (especially the 3 QT) fit the pot. It was as though either the pot or lid were warped. Aamazon better look at the invemtory as I own a lots of product by Cuisinart and have NEVER seen anything like this.
199402,1,84 charlie mopic,"I really thought this was the worst movie i have ever seen. Almost as bad as the blair witch project. I thought the attention to detail was good, but i think the whole idea of the camera man , following the infantry around asking questions, making noise, i personally would have tried to kill the mopic, to save my plattoons lives. I dont understand how this movie got so many good reviews. Almost half of my history of the vietnam war class got up and left ten minutes into this movie. I think it had to do with the fact that just prior to watching this movie, we got to watch the CBS News footage of vietnam, the real thing. So this movie had a tough audience, so i still think it is worth watching. Also, the fact that they filmed it in california didn't help the jungle effect either."
199407,1,"`Ran' A plus, `Goodbye Boys' F minus","Both of these films are foreign adaptations of Western culture. `Goodbye Boys' is a Malaysian version of the Boy Scouts of America complete with typical American teenage pranks. Somehow, I got the feeling that whoever did the subtitles in the video tried to make it appear that these boys were no different from American youths. Yet, the actor's body language did not match that of the subtitle. The movie didn't appear to be credible to me and I became bored very fast. It isn't worth the shipping and handling charge. If you must see it, rent it.*Whereas, `Ran' is a Japanese samurai adaptation of a Shakespeare play `King Lear' that was faithful to their culture. It kept me glued to the couch throughout the entire movie. Put your money on `Ran' and you won't regret it whereas you will with `Goodbye Boys' and your money."
199454,1,The Worst Ever,"This is whithout a doubt the worst CD i have ever heard. I know these guys are major sellouts but to rip off someone elses music, and then make it sound so bad, it should be illegal. With Creed and Phish breaking up i was happy but if Aerosmith could go, i would then see God's work, and know for sure he is out there."
199469,1,Indoor hose clamp,"My hose clamp arrived today. It's packaging includes some diagrams tht are supposed to help us attach the clamp to the faucet; however, I cannot figure out what the diagrams mean. Unless I figure this out, the connector is useless."
199491,1,Same Old Stuff,"This book has the same structure and theme as the Joy Luck Club. Read the debut and end it. Amy Tan is obesessed with the melodramatic and maudlin, in the process turning her novels into potboilers read only by illiterate female homemakers. Instead of reading fiction about China, why not go there and see it for yourself?"
199550,1,U call that a Tribute to AFI !!!!!!!,This is the worst tribute album ever. I strongly suggest not to buy this album. If you like AFI that much than go buy all their albums with those songs on it. The original songs on AFI's albums are much better. Take my advice and dont waist your money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
199616,1,Waste of money,I wish I could give it 0 stars. I read a few chapters and put it down. Its just blah blah blah with nothing helpful. Perhaps someone who knows nothing about the market may benefit but otherwise look elsewhere.
199635,1,where's the research?,"Hunter usually does impressive research, but here he shows a total lack of familiarity with chess. Bad job by Hunter and his editors."
199681,1,Amateur night at the writer's guild,Poorly written and hard to follow with any degree of continuity or clarity. I suspect Rivers was a much better ball player than writer with his past player status getting him a nod from his publisher.
199705,1,Don't do it!,"Words cannot express how BAD this movie is. If you are looking for a cute romantic comedy with Kate and Matthew wait until one actually comes out. While I love both actors dearly, this movie was difficult for me to watch from start to finish. The only reason I gave it one star was because ZERO was not an option."
199730,1,Not very Sturdy,"I bought this almost a year ago and have tried and tried to make it work. I agree with many of the other complaints here. Long story short, the slots for the shoes are very small and the entire thing tends to lose its shape under the weight of the shoes. Every time I would open the door shoes would fall out of it. I eventually ended up using just part of it for flip flops, flats, etc but it would always swing and get stuck in the door. While I liked the idea of this product, the design and quality is flawed."
199733,1,Cheap plastic hooks,I have older doors which are thicker than the standard so this is the only shoe organizer that will fit over my door frames. It does hold a lot of shoes which is nice but the two pices holding it on to the medal hooks is plastic. Ive been lucky and had one that has lasted a year. My other just broke & put up a new one that broke 20 seconds after I put my shoes in. I've ordered 3 more cause probably only one of them might last more than a few hours or a week without the plastic breaking. I don't recommend this product unless you only have a couple pairs of shoes cause the plastic will break on you and not worth it. If I could find a shoe organizer that would fit on my older thicker doors I would toss these instantly.
199925,1,Boo!,"Initially, this printer worked OK for scanning some friend's photos and printing out on photo paper for some cute little frames around the house. After a short time, however, this thing became more of a headache that it was worth. The paper is constantly jamming, tearing, crumping... you name it. The ink cartridges always need cleaning (which takes up a LOT of ink), and the quality quickly and obviously declines when choosing NORMAL over BETTER or BEST quality printing. It's become too costly to upkeep, so we decided to get a HP laser printer instead for the mostly document-type printing we do, and have been pleased with the switch. We still keep it around for scanning purposes, but that's about it."
199950,1,syrupy,"A sappy story about the stereotypically noble Anasazis, who speak woodenly, call each other things like ""child"" and ""nephew"", and are amazingly naive about the violent murders taking place among them. Those are the prehistoric characters, who never seem to have any thoughts or even glimmers of an idea. The modern characters, in the parallel plot, are no more real and are only marginally less simplistic. This impresses as a formulaic presentation cranked out as part of a financially successful series."
199955,1,"Lies, lies, lies","I am Welsh - Cymro glan wyr o Ynys Mon, parhaf yn Saesneg.The other reviews on this page have been written by the author of these books. None of them are Welsh and his views and cult are entirely rejected by all Welsh people. In fact this group has no members at all in Wales and does not represent and genuine tradition at all. The author, whose real name is Bill Wheeler, has never visited Wales in his life and the character Taliesin Einon Vawr is simply a figment of his imagination.His writings are such a drag - they do nothing but say how wonderful he is.Don't buy this book if you want to learn anything about Wales. The only thing you will learn here is that the author wants your money. If you are really interested in Wales join rhuddlwm@yahoogroups.com"
199994,1,Awful..,"Sounded like a great story..I even used Goddard's list once for an inspirational piece for school. Halfway through the book, I realized that this poorly written book is a compilation of highfalutin' chest thumping near-death experiences. If you are interested in real adventure, read about Shackleton, Krakauer or Simpson. Don't waste your money on this book!"
200050,1,Is this spirituality?,"The idea that there are really angels out there, and one is assigned to take care of us, is an extremely childish idea. All you have to do is look at the devastation around you, the pain and the needless suffering to convince you that it is not so.One can ask angels anything, we find out in this booklet, from a house to a car, a girlfriend or even a parking spot on a busy day.This is not materialism, the authors inform us, it is self-empowerment. With this nonsense, modern American spirituality has touched rock bottom. I just hope this is a fad that passes through quickly. Certainly the angel of the two authors has delivered big! With their terminal cheerfulness they have touched the life of many innocent American souls and vastly expanded their bank account."
200125,1,NOT AS ADVERTISED,"THIS PRODUCT WAS TO BE SOLD WITH A NEW COMPUTER, NOT INDIVIDUALLY. IT IS A ONE TIME USE ONLY SO MY RATING IS AS LOW AS IT CAN BE I WOULD NOT BUY FROM THIS VENDOR AGAIN."
200128,1,Worst service ever,The customer did not provide me with the product. After e-mailing the person no response.
200134,1,HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"This is the WORST movie ever!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is very drawn out, absolutely NOTHING hapens!!!!!!!! I sat thru the whole movie thinking ""Somebody blow up a car!""I can't beleve someone all that time and money making a movie that supid! Don't wast your money on this stupid movie!!!!!!!"
200276,1,Get Some New Ideas!,They need to give up on the penguins already. It's been done and it's boring. Come up with some new ideas for movies! An abomination!
200287,1,Embaressing,"Note to the studios and the powers that be that financed this piece of trash:Find another line of work that has nothing to do with animation, animals, music, entertainment industry or any path that might inadvertantly cross those of us who paid to see your lack of talent, concern or what passes off to some as ""ability.""To everyone else:Do not see, pay or even think about this movie."
200296,1,Appalling,Obvious disappointing sequel after a mediocre movie.Stop milking every cow till they run dry. Make original movies.Everything in this movie is bland. It is simply a quick cash cow.
200327,1,I can't belive people like this stuff!,"I've only heard 2 songs from this album,""Summer Girls"" & ""Girl on tv"",and they are just terrible.The lyrics are awful and make no sense.""Shooby-doo-whopp and scooby snacks"",what the hell is that?And I wish they would shut up about Abercrombie & Fitch.I like girls who wear what they like.By the way,I loooove chinese food.LFO is just full of themselves."
200375,1,Old news,This is a rehash of a book by exactly the same name published in 1980. The author adds little that has not been published many times before. Writing is academic style. Definitely not recommended reading.
200388,1,"It may be wonderful, but...","This classical music set may be a wonderful set, but amazon.com packed it for delivery inadequately. The CD box that contains the CD set was damaged during shipping. What a shame; I had to return it."
200394,1,ChemRIPoff,"I should have listened to the negative reviews about this product. You only get like 20 or more of the SAME practice problems for each subject and there is no ""tutoring"". No where in the product description does it state that you should already KNOW chemistry. To top it all off, the software feels dated. Forty dollars for this program.... Its not worth 5. I would rather have someone punch me in the face before getting ripped off like this again. I can't believe all the positive reviews either, very fishy."
200415,1,Very disappointing,"The positive reviews of this book must be by friends of the translators ... I've read perhaps 80 or 90 books of Chinese and Japanese poetry in translation, over the past decade, and this is easily among the worst. It's entirely possible that the problem lies in the translation --- yet the editors inexplicably didn't provide the original Japanese at the bottom of the page, so it's hard to tell. The nature of translating from Japanese to English gives translators an absurd amount of leeway (much more than translating among Romance languages, e.g.), so I'm guessing that these poems just deserve a better translator.Regarding the quality of the poems as translated; I'll put it this way, imagine the worst open mic night at the most pretentious coffee shop in the universe ..."
200489,1,:(,"My son hated the book. It was for a summer reading program required through the school. I tried to read it and hated it as well! Plus, the shipping was via media mail and it took like 2+ weeks. Overall, hated everything about it! :( ...very disappointed!"
200541,1,I saw It Coming a Book Away.,"When I read the first Otherland novel I was truly transported. It was wonderful and I anxiously waited for the next book.Having waded suspiciously through the second book, I arrived at the third. 150 pages and it went on the shelf. Now I'm just annoyed. I have been strung along. I got tired of saying to myself, ""OK, something significant's going to happen."" Or, ""What I just read has developed the story in some way I don't yet understand...Tad will play on it later."" Don't get me wrong, I love an Odyssey. I just like to have the interstices more meaningful. The characters seemed to dry up in all the fluff.I'm a pretty hardy reader. Heck, I didn't even put Larry Niven's Ringworld Throne down (what an awful waste of time and trees that was). In the words of Popeye: ""I've had all I can stands and I can't stands no more!""Sorry Tad. :("
200548,1,Adolescent theology,"As an experienced youth minister and religion teacher I found this book to be very inadequate. This isn't a book for adolescents on theology, it is a book with adolescent theology. It has not quite reached maturity. The answers show a lack of understanding by the author in basic moral and sacramental theology. The book is also selective in quoting the CCC. I will disagree with other reviews suggesting Mr. Pinto said aborted babies might go to hell, what he did do in that question was give the impression there is a limbo."
200630,1,RITES heavy on Melodrama,"Contrary to many, I found this film to be cloying and melodramatic. The plot and the writing often seem forced, and the performances occasionally border on the ridiculous. I found it to be a little hard to take seriously, but I know several viewers who found it to be utterly realistic. It is certainly gratifying to see an actor of Dean Stockwell's stature helping the genre of gay film to stretch its borders and its visibility, but this film was for me a mixed bag at best."
200682,1,DON'T BUY THIS VERSION OF THE DVD!,"View Askew is putting out a more fully loaded version of Dogma later this year with commentary, deleted scenes, etc. So rent this DVD if you must, but don't buy it."
200742,1,very small chips,"I thought I'd at least get a few nice sized chunks (i think it mentioned in the description), however these were very small chips. Just using as accent tastes along with hickory chunks."
200868,1,What the!?,"Ok everyone knows by now that Heroes Season 1 rocks and Season 2 is so so but what the heck! It's 156.00!!! Total ripoff!!! Do yourself a favor, buy Season 1 for 45.00 and call it a day!"
200918,1,Disappointed,"I'm new to Mr. Clegg but had heard good things, so I read Goat Dance and loved the writing style.Afterward I decided to read Afterlife after reading the sample. I hated the lead charter, she had tobe one of the most un-realistic personalities I've ever read. I felt the writing style of this book wasfar from the writing style in Goat Dance, I'm still having trouble believing this was written by the same man."
200946,1,Was a disapointment,"This album was a disapointment in my eyes. I am not an individual that doesn't like it when a group changes its style or its musical taste. Hell I liked Warrant when it changed as well as several other groups. This album beyond a couple of good songs was not very good at all. I have to say that this album all together is medicore and isn't very good. I felt that Cryptic Writings was a good album and that this one is very sub-par. The buyer bewear of this CD, I have read about people buying this album and liking it, I am one of those that didn't. If you like Megadeth at all for its old sound, than this isn't the album for you, this album isn't musically very good and is lacking period."
200970,1,Weak,"Hey, ""Losing your mind"" and ""Horse called war"" are not BLS songs! They are Pride & Glory songs, the first band Zakk put together. And the Pride & Glory album remains as his best effort so far. And ""Sold my soul"" is not a BLS song either! It's from a Zakk's solo album called Book of Shadows, which is also great. Well, now looking at the real BLS songs, every fan can notice that the best songs are not there! What compilation is this one? Where are songs like ""The beginning at last"", ""Graveyard Disciples"", ""Just killing time"", ""Destruction overdrive"", ""Suffering overdue"", ""Damage is done"" etc. etc.????If you don't know BLS and wants to get started with this compilation, don't do it! You better start with one single album, ""1919 Eternal"", which is much better than this compilation here!"
200984,1,Thermos 18 OZ Bottle,This unit did not keep liquids hot enough even over a short 2 hour period and was far from meeting our expectations.
200985,1,Not as good as other Thermos Products,"I thought this would insulate as well as some of the other thermos bottles I have had. Sadly, it does not. It is pretty skinny and can fit in the side pocket of a lot of bags, a feature that my other thermos bottle does not have. The top and lid clip work well and the bottle feels good in the hand. However, it only keeps ice cool for about 6-8 hours. Sadly, that's sub par for me. I like it but don't love it."
201028,1,Very forgettable,What a terrible movie. Who makes this junk and why? I didn't see it that long ago and I couldn't tell you a thing about what happened in it. Thank god I didn't pay to see it at the movies.
201029,1,Boring!,"I kept thinking to myself in the first 5-10 minutes, I should just turn this off. I really should have. It doesn't get any better as you keep watching. Save yourself the time and watch something else."
201053,1,Remote sensor doesn't work,"Similar to other reviews, the remote sensor doesn't work. I ended up buying an Oregon Scientific which works fine."
201095,1,Why are there so many positive reviews of this product?!?,"I bought the Tovolo Blue Rocket Pop Molds based on the customer reviews. I was expecting them to work great and be user friendly. Boy, was I wrong! First, I tried making popsicles out of an ice cream mixture. It was a total disaster. The popsicle sticks would come right out of the mold, without the popsicle! (Yes, I let them freeze overnight!) The Tovolo popsicle molds apparently don't work well with milk, yogurt, or ice cream mixtures. If you are planning on making creamy popsicles, I suggest you buy a different mold. I also tried to make fruit juice popsicles and soda pop popsicles. Both of them froze so hard it was impossible to get them out of the mold, even after running them under hot water! I even had my strong-armed fiance try to get them out. He couldn't do it either! Both the fruit juice and the soda popsicles would not release from the mold until they were half melted! What a huge disappointment."
201118,1,Wrong Item sent and no reply from company to fix error,"I ordered yeast-gard from Women's Health Formulas/Lake Consumer Products. The pictured product is the pink version of the product and is what I wanted. What I received is the green version of the product which is a different formulation and something that I can't use. When I emailed the company the only response I received was the automatic yes we've received your email and will get back to you. I never heard back. I emailed again and never heard back. I will not order again from this company as I am not sure they'll send me what they advertised and if there is an error, I feel I'll be stuck with paying for a product I didn't want or order. And I feel the company doesn't care about customer satisfaction."
201130,1,A totally implausible poorly crafted novel.,I sometimes wonder what drug editors are on when they accept some novels. I'm afraid Monstrum is a perfect case of incomprehensible editorial decisions. Coincidence piles on coincidence as the hapless police inspector stumbles (litterally) on the solution to the crime. The ending leaves one totally exaspetated. One can only assume that the author's rush to justice was occasioned by his desire to reduce the reader's pain.
201143,1,People with common sense need not apply,"Although the author and contributors seem to genuinely want to help people avoid pitfalls, some of the ""hard learned lessons"" in here could have been avoided by doing a little research or pausing to consider what they were possibly getting in to. It amazes me that some of these people succeeded; some seem downright clueless. If you are a thoughtful and organized person you can probably skip this one."
201229,1,Very disappointed,Very disappointed and mislead by the size of product. Much smaller than I anticipated!
201303,1,WASA Crisp'n Light inside packaging cannot be recycled.,"WASA Crisp'n Light inside packaging cannot be recycled. The crackerbread is excellent, but its inside packaging is a cellophane or type of plastic that cannot be recycled anywhere in the six states I have contacted. Todate WASA has not revealed what the inside packaging is made of, nor where I can recycle it."
201308,1,Hannibal in Italy,"I have just read 35 pages of this highly recommended book. However on page 35 Fuentes writes...Hannibal, badly supplied, repaired back to his Spanish shelter, confirming Roman suspicions etc etc.I have read nothing about Hannibal ever returning to Spain after arriving in Italy. He campaigned in Italy 16 years, was joined by one of his brothers who lost a battle and was killed, then returned to Carthage where he was defeated at Zama. He fled to the east pursued by the Romans where he committed suicide.Does anyone have a reference describing Hannibal's return to Spain?"
201346,1,AN ADVICE TO JENNIFER,"jENNIFER YOU'RE A GOOD ACTRESS AND ALL BUT SINGIN IS NOT YOUR THING THE C.D . IS BAD AND I LOST MY MONEY . COMPARED TO OTHER ARTISTS YOU SHOULDN'T EVEN BE IN THE MUSIC BUSINESS . OTHER THAN THAT , YOU'RE FINE"
201364,1,Strange Texture,"This was a mediocre mouth peice. The texture on it made biting down and keeping your embouchure a bit awkward. Maybe for a beginner this would be ok, but it you've got some serious soprano-saxin' coming up then opt for something better."
201405,1,can't get replacement part,"I ordered this canopy as a gift and it arrived with a broken piece. We have called the manufacturer and waited on hold or been transferred and had our call dropped about 10 times in the last few months. We have still never been able to reach customer service. After having our call dropped while being transferred we thought we got smart and asked for the number directly, we were then promptly disconnected. I am sure it is a great product if it comes in working conditions, but don't count on the manufacturer standing behind this product."
201431,1,Not so interesting after a while!,"I am a big fan of historical romances especially ones involving vampires. But this book got tediously boring and repetetive after a few pages. There should seriously be a limit to the number of times people are allowed to have sex in a book. This story literally goes from one sexual encounter to the next. It is enjoyable only to an extent,after a while, you just want to say, 'Get over it'.It would have been a better read if the author had taken the trouble to have an actual story around these scenes. 'Sin' by the same author is a better read.I normally read these books overnight or in a day, but this one literally dragged on for days and days."
201459,1,Disappointed with one of my favorite writers!,"First, I have to say that I have read, and loved, most of William Bernhardt's previous work. Next, let me say that I despised this one! I should never have even finished it because so much of it made my skin crawl, but I kept hoping it would, somehow, redeem itself. It never did. There are certainly readers who will love this type of grisly tale, but I'm sure that many of us, familiar with Mr Berhardt's earlier books, will be stunned when they try to get into this one. It was impossible to care what happened to any of the characters....perhaps because there were so many of them."
201495,1,Ugly chicken dook,Stupid dook chicken doll fart faceMost stupidest book I've ever read in my life no more words cuz it's stupid
201529,1,Incomplete information,This unit REQUIRES MSN service be available or you must pay extra for an ISP AND pay to Microsoft. This information should be provided in advance of sale.
201567,1,"whisky, tango foxtrot , over","well, It did have Traci Lords in it which to be honest is why I bought the thing. next most importaint was the show itself. I came across a comic years ago about this story line and have tried to find more on it. The comic didn't have the cover so it was years befor I could put a name to it. finally found it and enjoyed the story. Then one day discovered there was a movie on it and rushed to Amazon to get it. Read the reviews and thought there just wasn't any way to ruin a good comic this thoroughly. I was wrong. warning, don't eat or drink anything before or durning this movie. Afterwards is up to your stomach.All comments to her past porn ""acting"" jobs aside, Traci has turned into a fair ""B"" movie actress and if the right scripts came her way could move forward. This however was not the right script."
201587,1,That Darn Suspension of Disbelief,"The Midnight Club is a book with interesting characters, a nice premise and plenty of action...unfortunately it just doesn't work.These fine attributes are woven together in a plot that fails the dreaded test of believability. The arch-enemy of the hero is so cartoonish, so archetypal that you cannot suspend your disbelief and soon find yourself guessing (correctly) what is going to happen next. When this is combined with the contrived love story, the disappointing ending and the overused ""saving the damsel in distress"" convention, the book just plain flops.Patterson has written other works worth reading, I suggest staying with Along Came A Spider or Jack and Jill if you are interesting in reading this author, but avoid this particular offering."
201744,1,Not So Big House Collection,This book has many nice pictures but we did not get many usable ideas for our house project. Many suggetions are just too expensive and too custom to be practical unless you have an unlimited budget.
201891,1,Miss led by the appearance!,Not as nice as I thought it appeared. I could & should have bought a better product at a lower price at a local store. I do not plan to use this service again!
201903,1,Not actually a pack of 24,"Note that, despite being called ""Norpro 422D Glass Measuring Shot Glasses (Pack of 24)"", including a description that says it is a display pack of 24, and being priced ridiculously high for a single glass, you are actually only buying one shot glass here. Other items on Amazon are a much better deal."
201939,1,not the same layout as print,"This is one of my largest complaints of the kindle system as a whole. This book is a dynamic book, meaning that the page is sized for the text. The problem with this feature is twofold. First, the parts lists are difficult to reference quickly. Second, a page cannot be referenced by page number (as is done in most lecture classes). It would be a great Kindle feature if you could choose between standard book layout styled print and dynamic pages (depending on your personal preference or quality of eyesight). Until then, this book is best bought as a hard copy."
202053,1,WARNING about SpeedGlitter,"They will cancel your order DAYS after you placed your order without giving a reason. If you rely on meds, you are taking a BIG gamble buying from THIS seller."
202102,1,Ripoff!!!,"Beware of bad dub!! This is a dub rip-off album that barely runs 32 minutes and the quality is poor. Don't waste your hard earned money like I did. There are so many other well-mixed and more substantial King Tubby compilations out there, especilly those with Augustus Pablo, that buying this one is shear insanity. Dub record buyers should always be cautious of these rip-offs!"
202157,1,Not good enough,This book is remarkable. Remarkable that it actually was a book seller. My guess is that the book was carried to sucess by the wave the Da Vinci Code created. Otherwise it is not worthy to see the light of day.This is a book about smart people being smarter than the general populace. This is a book that goes nowhere. It strives to be literary enough to be remembered but fails and it strives to be entertaining enough. It fails there too.
202189,1,"Good God, It's Dull!","Ugh, good God, this book is dull. My only thought while reading this book was, ""Get to your point already!"" The characters are cliches, shells of college stereotypes, and it takes much too long to get to the advertised storyline. I really do feel that this is a rip-off of Dan Brown's work, that the publisher is hoping readers will buy anything Renaissance, anything thriller, and anything with encrypted clues. This book, however, is just everything dull."
202215,1,Battlefield FLOP!!,"Bought the game the day it was released with eager anticipation given all the hipe. I'm a loyal fan of Meddle of Honor so I thought I couldn't go wrong given EA was behind the development. Big dissapoinment! Gameplay lagged, game detail looked rushed and unpolished, there was no sense of nostalgia that the Meddle of Honor series engendered and the campaigns were poorley conceived and developed.My advice: save your money and wait for the Meddle of Honor expansion due out in November. Battlefield 1942 is a big flop!!"
202237,1,Nothing New,"Those familiar with the Battle of Midway will find nothing new here. On the contrary, the book is so full of errors and misconstructions of fact that it only further distorts the reasons behind the tragic slaughter of the U.S. torpedo planes and their aircrews during this famous battle. Much of the technical information cited in this book is outdated, inaccurate, or incorrectly analyzed, leading to erroneous errors and conclusions throughout the text. Readers wanting to know the real story to the U.S. torpedo planes would be better off obtaining a reprint of Lord's classic work Incredible Victory, Lundstrom's First Team, or the newly released Shattered Sword by Parshall and Tully."
202258,1,This is not even worthy of a star,"I love the velvety sound of Miss Keely Smith's hauntingly gorgeous voice, however this Cd re-issue of a cheesy album Smith recorded in the 60's is awful. The music isn't even music, it's muzak. This is middle of the road pop at it's worst. If you're interested in Keely get her recordings with Nelson Riddle and Billy May first and also try Cherokeely Swings with Billy May."
202340,1,WHAT HAPPENED?,"Dissapointing.....very very disappointing... From what was once a magnificent melodic metal band has now joined the force of nu-metal. What is this world of music coming to? This cd is complete trash compared to early works such as colony, jester race, amd lunar strain. I mean it's complete trash anyway.REAL metal fans stay far... far away from this cd. right hand man lives."
202345,1,NU-METAL CRAP,"WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THESE BANDS. FIRST HYPOCRISY, ARCH ENEMY, NEVERMORE, AND NOW IN FLAMES. PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT NU-METAL IS GARBAGE GO BACK INTO PLAYING THOSE WONDERFUL RIFFS THAT WE GREW LOVING, AND NOT THESE KORN 3 FINGER CHORDS. WE HATE THEM."
202350,1,It's ok but small,"This jack-in-the-box is very small. The base fits in the palm of my adult hand. The latch is not very sturdy and it already is hard to keep the lid shut for the next turn. It only plays, ""How much is that doggie in the window? I do hope that doggie's for sale."" and then pops up. Overall, I thought it was going to be a bargain...and I got what I paid for which was very little."
202418,1,No upload?!,How can a digital product these days have no facility for syncing up with a computer?What if you want to email sound files for transcription?What if you want to back up?This is useless!
202472,1,NaturVet Fast Bath,"This product doesn't work too well since it is basically a wet shampoo that sprays on--which means you still have to towel dry the dog and finish grooming like you would after a regular bath. I guess it saves some time, but I thought I was getting a dry spray-on shampoo product and was disappointed with this. It may be o.k. for short-haired dogs, but it doesn't work well for poodles and probably wouldn't work too well on long-haired breeds."
202565,1,Timeless and Beautiful,The Phantom of the Opera will never grow old because of its beauty and continued performance by outstanding singers. I recently saw Love Never Dies at a theatre in Los Angeles and the beautiful story and production continue on with all its beauty and glorious music.
202649,1,Not the better game choice...,"This game is quite fun but I found it quite frustrating, especially at the end. There are swarms of enemies coming of nowhere and one hit, you're toast. You only got three lives... and it can get pretty boring. After you'll beat it, you probably won't play it again..."
202658,1,"Cute, but too noisy!",Very cute and love the light show option. Returned this item almost immediately however due to the excessively loud clicking and motor sounds when swing is operating. I couldn't sleep through that and wouldn't expect my child to. It even drowned out the music!
202669,1,worst phone,This phone is only good if you like listening in on other people's conversations. The first time I used it you could constantly hear the phone clicking. I stopped to listen and could hear every word of someone else's conversation. I thought it was supposed to be good at scrambling--it's the worst I have ever used.
202697,1,Does not play CD-R's,"This player will not play home-burned CD's (CD-R and CD-RW). It notes this limitation in the instructions, so I suppose one can't really attack Panasonic for it, but that seems like an important feature these days since you are likely to burn or be given a home-burned CD at some point."
202702,1,rock journalists should be ditch diggers.,led zeppelin never released a bad studio recording from led zeppelin I all the way through to coda. and these punk journalist try to tell me that the in through the out door record is average at best. and that d'yer maker is crap. i never understood who needs to read a journalists review before they make up their own mind about an album. all rock journalists should be ditch diggers. i think they have to be jealous or something. how can they not appreciate something as beautiful as in through the out door clearly they need to be in another proffesion. the dvd is not worth having it only shows very short clips of the rare zep footage. your better off trying to find a bootleg. and further more page said it best when he said something like a mediocre zeppelin is better than most bands best. but don't take my word for it listen to the albums and make up your own mind rock journalists are idiots
202742,1,Cynical Trash,"Depression, of course, is a serious and debilitating condition. Publishing and distributing this book under the guise of a depression self-help book is irresponsible and cynical."
202746,1,"somewhat interesting, but not as good as some of her others","This book was somewhat worth reading, but it was not as good as some of her other books. This one seems to leave out alot of useful information and somehow gave me the impression that Carolyn is lacking in her perspective of spiritual knowledge. I can't rely on this Astrological guide only because it is not totally acurate. I have read her other books and walked away content, but not this one. I guess, I just expected ehr books to get better and better, not the other way around."
202781,1,"it doesn't have ""The Cat in the Hat"" or ""Green Eggs and Ham""","I did not buy this book, because it did not have the two Seuss über-classics named above. It does however contain ""And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street"", ""Horton Hears a Who!"", ""Yertle the Turtle"", ""How the Grinch Stole Christmas!"", ""The Lorax"" and ""The 500 Hats"" (the last of which I never heard).If you are just starting your Seuss collection, I suggest ""Your Favorite Seuss: A Baker's Dozen by the One and Only Dr. Seuss"", available on Amazon for about $10 more. It contains all the above and ""McElligot's Pool"", ""If I Ran the Zoo"", ""Happy Birthday to You!"", ""Dr. Seuss's Sleep Book"", ""The Sneetches"" and ""Oh, the Places You'll Go!"" in addition to the aforementioned über-classics ""The Cat in the Hat"" and ""Green Eggs and Ham"". 13 classic Dr. Seuss stories in all. You can't beat that with a three-handled, moss-covered family credenza!"
202818,1,Disastrously Disappointing,"The purchase was a disappointment. At the time of order, your page did not indicate that the book has two volumes. Had it indicated in some way, I would have ordered for Volume II because the information I seek is in the later part of the title. You should have included Volume Number in your website.Oo"
202895,1,"Ok magazine, bad customer service","The magazine is very thin, it is pretty factual, no interesting comments for kids. I would rather order National Geography for Kids. Much better!First couple issues were missing, customer service won't send reimbursement issues unless another year is renewed."
203043,1,2 for the price of one...Worth it?,"These 2 movies are really really horrible. They fit the genre of crappy, campy b'rated horror, accept they aren't good! Do yourself a favor, save 4 hours for something better..."
203052,1,Cant Judge a Book By Its Cover,"Very disappointing. Very little info on compact tractors, lots of glossy pictures of (some) tractors and accessories and lots of non-tractor task equipment. Rather lengthy academic discussion of tractor based economics (rent or buy? cost to operate? etc), but NO REAL info on how to choose or use implements. For the potential compact tractor buyer, some but insufficient information to sort out capacity, need, and merit amoung the myriad of choices, but this would not help one make that final decision. As a tractor owner, I found little merit in this book. Recommend looking elsewhere if your are wanting to get more use from your existing tractor."
203127,1,Not good for Begginers,"This book is mostly for intermediate to advanced users. It barely delves into basic modeling or animation. It's good if you worked with previous versions, since they cover new features of Lightwave. So don't get this book if you are starting out. It would be really confusing even if you used other 3d apps before, since they focus more on tecniques and not on the app/interface itself. It feels like it is geared towards previous Lightwave users, instead of teaching you how to use the software from the ground up. Instead, they show you advanced examples so it would be hard for you to understand what is it that you are doing, even though you understand what they are telling you to do. It's useless doing something if you don't understand what you are doing."
203135,1,"Wrong Music = No Sale, Sorry","Tour of Duty without the original music, especially 'Paint It Black'; I don't think so. It just wouldn't be the same. I am sure if I had never seen the originals it would be ok. For me though, even now years later I think first of Tour Of Duty each time I hear that song from the Stones. A series of DVD's costs enough for the producers to get it right if they want my money. I'd love to have Tour Of Duty & China Beach both complete series, but not without the music for them."
203161,1,Waste of Money,"I am very disappointed I spent my hard-earned money on this book. The whole thing is one ginormous pity-party. All Wynonna does is regurgitate everything she learned in her 15 gazillion therapy sessions and workshops. And I swear she had to have been paid by Onsite to do this because the whole book is one big commercial for them. Needless to say, I was incredibly disappointed with this book."
203179,1,Bad Machine,The locking handle is a horror. Very difficult to close or open. The coffe is lukewarm at best. Machine drips way after use.This machine needs a complete overhaul. Don't even think of buying it.
203187,1,Brew Boo,"This unit makes a wonderfull cup of coffee when it is not broke. I have been through 2 of these units thinking they(B&D) has made improvements. Not so. The coffe makers had the identical problem with the pod holder tabs breaking after several dozen uses. Then the units leaks all over the place because it cannot hold a seal. The second unit did exactly the same even with me paying particular attention to that area. After buying a replacement pod holder only to see that fail also, the entire upper head of the unit became craked. I threw it in the trash after numerous contacts to B&D about their product. I bought a Senseo coffee system, a little more costly but much happier user. B&D needs to take a hard look at their design."
203209,1,Standard Problems Presented in a Mediocre Fashion,"This book offers a nice set of pretty standard undergraduate to first year graduate problems in solid state physics. The answers, unfortunately, are sloppy and remarkably lack the detail you would expect from a question and answer book. Each chapter has a superficial and not too insightful introduction to the topic before asking the questions. Probably, most disappointing are the problems for which there are no answers. Isn't this supposed to be a problem and answer book? If you are looking for an insightful solution guide or a general overview as a companion for an introductory solid state course, you don't want this book. If you just want to see a result and have some stuff to jot down on homework assignments, then perhaps this book is just what you need."
203298,1,one star compared to his previous album,"nothing wrong with this album, it just doesn't hold it's own against ""welcome to my dream"". like a previous review stated, it may be hard to find, but well worth the effort."
203313,1,"Novelty Item,","This item is strictly a novelty. It can hardly do the job. after the first season the battery died,and of course the warranty with it and of course Lentek had no solution. After 1 year, in the garbage."

203591,1,not good,"the acting was good and it started off kind of interesting, but it turned out to suck. this is the kind of movie where the cops have a bad habit of shooting innocent people and stupid kids who take a wounded cop hostage get a happy ending and are actually good kids and victums of racism or our capitalist system. also, the climax was way too melodramatic."
203646,1,"Badly Done, Pointless, Cliff Notes Version","Having loved the book, and remembering the first film version of ""Back Home"", I had great hopes for it this time around. While the Disney version left something to be desired, this one was just absolutely DREADFUL with a capital D. I'd rather live in dreary old World War II England than have to watch this film again.The acting is horribly wooden. The script/screenplay is as if the writer and director only got a cliff notes, very summarized version of the book. Maybe they read a book report on it that got an F. The sets and things look cheap, in fact the whole film looks as if it was very cheaply done.Don't bother seeing it. Read the book. Or put on your own version in a film made by yourself and your friends. It will probably be better written, acted, and more professional."
203696,1,"Not a ""How to book""","I read several critics reviews before making the purchase and was very excited about an instinctive method book. I read it from cover to cover over a weekend. I then went out Monday evening, full of warm and fuzzy feelings about dog training, to apply what I thought I learned and found myself staring at the dog not knowing where to start. I understand that the books overall theme was not just about yard work but I found the book more philosophical about the method and fell short where the rubber meets the road. I did use some of the material to tweak others teachers methods (Tarrant, Long or Smith). The book reads like a compilation of magazine articles that are loosely related and rambles a little to much for my taste(side bar information about his favorite dogs). It is a good winter fire side read and I highly recommend it as that, but not as an owners first hands on training reference."
203720,1,Don't go here!,"The pedals look good, but are impossible to install, it makes Rubic's Cube look simple. Plus once you do get them on, they don't stay there, so if you want custom pedals, ""Don't go here"""
203726,1,an utter waste,"This represents the utter nadir of Black Sabbath MkI, though a decent video could've compensated. This DVD did not.The performance is ""desperately mediocre"" (only that high for a couple of Iommi solos); Video production sub-par (""you can't make a silk purse out of a pig's ear""); Sound quality abysmal (again, only that high for a couple of Iommi solos).An utter waste of good money."
203731,1,Dumb,"The only good part of this movie was the first 15 minutes where nobody spoke a word. Once Antonio Bandares started talking is where the movie went South. Rebecca Romijn was pretty in that vaseline lens supermodel look, but they both looked like they were reading off cue cards. DUMB, DUMB, DUMB.I've seen grass grow faster than it takes for this movie to end... I'm sure it will take in a bunch of cash from DVD sales, but don't waste your time!"
203756,1,"be carefull , this it for turbo model ( GST AND GSX )","i bought this fuel regulator and didnt work on my mitsubishi eclipse 99 rs(420A), so i wrote to standard motor products and they told me that some mitsubishi eclipse use a standard fuel regulator PR328.I wought the PR328 and its exactly like the oem part , so be carefull when you are buying replacement parts for your car."
203771,1,Dull - very dull.,"This was purchased as a gift for a mother-in-law, and we just got back from her house and personally saw, and used, this knife set. Luckily she is not a chef or that interested in cooking because if she were I would be embarrassed about this gift. I tried each of the knives and they were so dull that I could do better with the everyday stainless steel stuff. A big, big disappointment - yes, it was cheap but pago up some more money and get something better. I definitely will next go-around!"
203814,1,Caution!,I'm new to plank grilling so tried to follow the directions explicitly on plank preparation and burnt half my first plank before adding any food. Watch carefully when searing the plank - the times given may be for thicker planks than mine. Have not tried any of the recipes yet.
203915,1,B & D SZ360 Scissors,"I ordered the item because it was cheaper to buy a new one compared with buying a battery for the old one. Luckily, I did not throw the old one away. When the new one arrived, I charged the battery the recommended time, and when I went to test it, NOTHING!. So I removed the battery from the new one and put it in the old one, SUCCESS!. After checking for loose, broken wires in the new one, I discovered that the motor in the new one was faulty, you had to manually spin the shaft to get the motor to run. So, now I have my old one with a new battery and an extra scissorhead if the old head gets dull."
203967,1,At Risk,"We had to read this book in my language arts class, and frankly I was very dissapointed. The book sounded like it was going to have a very good story line. The book was unexciting and not particularly well written, and I am usually used to strong books, as I read plenty of adult books as well. Even I say this, along with many others, in saying this book was a little too strong to be classified as a children's book. I think the swearing gets tiring after a while, and I do not like the characters in the book very much, except for the protagonist Amanda. Polly is quite annoying!!!!!"
203985,1,Dragon breath!,Worst writer of the century. Gallenkamp turned a fascinating subject into a bore. Read about Roy Andrews in another book written by a real writer. I couldn't wait toi finish this book so I could start a good one.
203999,1,Terribly Expensive -- Yes Both,Shell fell apart after about one month. Very hard to refill -- nothing about this was easy or good. Now having a hard time returning it. Sigh.
204002,1,Yawn,"This book just rambles and rambles and doesn't even get interesting until the last 100 pages or so.It's a great premise, but pooly done.Darnton also seems to like to talk about male genitals -- 3 times (and it always is ""off to one side"") man, how does this apply to the story?Big yawn, move on."
204065,1,Not worth the bother or the money,This was very difficult to use and didn't work. It left far more hair than it took off. Don't waste your money on this crap.
204067,1,Useless!,"I attempted to use this seat on 4 different tables and it only successfully hooked onto one of them -- ironically the one in my home!!!Two of the tables I tried were dining room tables that had a wooden piece running underneath the length of the table for insertion of table leaves. This interfered with the seat's attachment and the seat could not be used.The third table we tried was a booth at a pizza place. The seat was able to attach at the end of the table, however once in place the adult diners were not able to sit down because the seat's attachment rods did not allow enough room between the booth seat and the table for an adult leg to slide through and sit down. Even if the adult slid in first the attachment rods interferred with the adult's leg room. Again the seat could not be used.Also beware that this seat will not hook onto tables with at tablecloth. It doesn't tell you this on the box so I didn't find out until I read the enclosed booklet.Needless to say I am returning this ASAP!"
204069,1,"Super sensitive,... TO EVERYTHING!!!!","So many false alarms, you end up becoming desensitized to it. Then, BANG!!! you get a ticket...Beeps at you if a dog farts in a nearby county...Get the Cobra 1050 instead."
204095,1,"No man, but boy.","I love oriental hunks, alright. The oriental can be much muscular than that, and still not so much as a bodybuilder. The models in the book are too thin. But if you love young boys with underdeveloped muscle, it's a different story."
204098,1,Could have been so good!,"I completely respect Mr. Burch's background and upbringing. I am so thankful that he shared his story. I was just not impressed with his writing. The conversation was awkward and I could not get into the characters. I was using this book for a grad school assignment, but ended up skimming it. Again, I respect Mr. Burch, but did not like the way the book was written at all."
204140,1,Didn't like it,I didn't like this because I couldn't see my son in the mirror. I drive an SUV and I found a bigger mirror instead.
204164,1,A Great Idea but zero support,"A wonderful idea, and when it works it is really neat. But I had a heck of a time setting it up, had to throw out a perfectly good digital phone (it won't work with a digital phone anywhere in the house, Uiden and Vtech are hybrid digital, beware) and it took forever to get it to connect to the local phone line.Support is non-existent, I've sent three e-mails and never a response. Phone call (not an 800 number) take over a 1/2 hour to answer and you will be as knowledgeable as the tech support goof they connect you with. Frustrating.I love the idea, but they mislead you on the cost of the contract, which is way too expensive for the lousy service.It was a gift that has so far cost me $220 ($100 phone and $120 subscription service).Again, a great idea and a real pleasure while it works. But don't buy one for your parents or grandparents. When mine craps out that will be the end of it, I've never been this fed up with a company as I am with Ceiva."
204171,1,Boring,"Alex's artwork is phenomenal as always, but this has to be the most boring comic book ever written. The story involves Wonder Woman wondering how she could be more effective in her task here on earth as an ambassador of peace. While she's doing this you get to look at some paintings by Alex Ross. The End."
204239,1,'FLY' Was Better...,"Well, when I first put this disc into my player, I was expecting the same sounds as FLY. Nope. This album is not very good. It's not like the fun,bouncy, and party-like country hits on their last album. I would have to say the only songs I like are 'Landslide', and 'White Trash Wedding'. I highly anticipated this album and was highly disappointed. Well, 'HOME' is going to be in my next yard sale."
204271,1,Double OUCH!,"What an extreme case of pee-pee envy, mixed up with a love of male genital mutilation. The woman who wrote this certainly has some serious issues, not the least of which deals with boundries and control."
204406,1,This BOOK Doesn't Deserve a Single Star,"Finally ! Something we've all been waiting for : A SYSTEM OF LYING TO YOUR HEART AND THE WAY YOU REALLY FEEL. I personally have fallen in love with another man and for someone to tell me that the amazing feeling I had is an 'error', that there is something WRONG with the way I feel, is a joke. A lot of people are afraid of their homosexual feelings & hold them back because of how socially taboo the idea is - a lot of men completely eliminate the possibility of being with another man strictly because of how looked down upon it is by society. Well screw society and the world and wake up to how you really feel. The concept of this book is a joke. Don't waste your time or money on a book that instructs a person to not be themself because they just can't take it. Only a fool could truly depend on the ""rightful"" opinions that society trys to drive into our mind."
204425,1,Jazz Stinker with no Holiday Spirit,"I was looking forward to this so much. I had heard a lot of good things about Winton Marsalis and was looking forward to some smokey hot holiday jazz. No such luck. The minor chords, the complete lack of spirit, what a bummer. I cannot imagine being more disappointed. You can tell the musicians know how to play their instruments. Why didn't they? Bah humbug on this loser."
204455,1,WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT!!!!! COULDN'T EVEN FINISH IT,"I have read most of DK's other books and enjoyed them all, but this one is something eles again. After thinking myself extremely lucky to score this book from the local library, I couldn't wait to get it home and start reading. Unfortnuately it was so boring I could only read about 70 pages and am so disgusted with the lengthy drawn out descriptions, written in some new age style that I could not bring myself to finish this book. And once Bobby and Sasha come on the scene it only went from bad to worse, with their unbelievable dialogue and inane conversations in the middle of supposed suspense. I hope Dean gets back to his former style of writing that makes for enjoyable reading and not the torture this book was!"
204462,1,Bloated,"While parts of the book are interesting, the extreme bloating nearly ruined the book for me. Seize the Night is essentially a 200 page novel that Dean expanded to 400 pages by adding page after page of superfluous description, character introspection, and often meaningless dialogue. Had he written it in a style similar to The Vision (which admittedly was more stripped down and bare-bones than the rest of his novels), Seize the Night would have been an excellent, albeit short, novel."
204473,1,Look into the reviews before buying!!!,"I was interested in purchasing this book because of the large number of ""great"" reviews it received. But, when I investigated the reviews more thoroughly, I noticed that most of the reviews were submitted by individuals who either had only reviewed this book or it and another book written by the authors.It seems to me that either the authors or friends of the authors have written the vast majority of the reviews to artificially inflate the books rating so unsuspecting people will purchase it. That's extremely unprofessional - and rather pathetic.I'd suggest looking for books on this topic written by authors who don't feel the need to lie about the worthiness of their own publication just to get people to purchase it."
204478,1,DVD,I absolutely love Aaliyah just like many of you out there but I found this DVD to be a waste of money. This DVD is how others view her life and death. There are a few pictures of Aaliyah on this DVD but hardly.
204523,1,Great book,It was a good book and I enjoyed the perspective. A good read for anyone doing social reserach! I would reccomend it!
204537,1,"Slow, dry book with misleading cover","After reading a few chapters, I found this book hard to want to read. Pinder's style is dry and slow, and leaves plenty to be desired. The stories he tells are rather uneventful, though I usually enjoy writings about simple events, but only when written well. The cover might lead a potential reader to believe Pinder will criticize yuppy hikers and the flocks of roof-racked Subaru driving granolas that fill the parking lots at his beloved trailheads. Pinder does not, however. He spends a fair amount of time talking with and about the thru-hikers he meets on the trail. I do believe there are better books to buy, and if one if interested in having the most ""genuine experience"" while out of doors, read some Thoreau."
204548,1,"5"" Loofah Body Scrubber - 2 pack","Sorry guys, this product is too hard for tender skin. We would like to see your buyers procure productsmade here in the USA, not China. Very disappointed in your choice and quality in these Loofahs. Will try elsewhere."
204558,1,Tedious attempt at Freud-ish memoir,"According to biographies, Rita Lydig, born Rita de Acosta, and Edith Wharton were not only contemporaries, but at one time, rivals for the affections of the same man. Tragic Mansions reads like an attempt for Mrs. Lydig to capture some of the literary glory Mrs. Wharton had achieved by the publication of this book. The trouble is, Tragic Mansions is a mess: I have no clue whether it's supposed to be a very discreet memoir or a fictionalized account of the aristocratic NY society into which both Wharton and Lydig were born. But I can say that the entire book is tedious and dull. Where Wharton's stories cut at the underbelly of NY's aristocracy, peeling back their layers and exposing the hypocrisy, Lydig makes a feeble attempt at a similar introspection by sharing stories beneath pseudonyms and altered situations, but they fall flat. I could recommend this as somewhat of a character study, for there are a few interesting stories, but it's virtually unreadable."
204618,1,Terrible,"It is plane to see that this album deserves nothing more than a 1 out of 5 stars, i cant find one good song on it, i wasted my money on this one, i hope you dont waste yours.Dont think i hate nas, i rate illmatic, it was written and i am... all 5 out of 5, and stillmatic 4 out of 5, but nastradamus is not worth it."
204676,1,No Coconut Pete !,"Yikes, if you ""get"" this comedy, most of the fun comes from the Buffett character played by Bill Paxton aka Coconut Pete. His songs are viscously insightful parody of Jimmy's work. But they arent on the CD. An incorrect Bill Paxton link is provided by another reviewer on this page. But here now, is finally the correct link where you can find Mp3 downloads. www.billpaxtonweb.com/ A German tribute site (with English mirror); go to ""media"" and you'll find all the Pete you can handle."
204704,1,Don't do it! Don't waste your money.,"This pan is absolute junk. It buckled when I took off the label band and is so thin that you literally can bend the metal with your fingers! The donut recipe is also fit for the trash can. It is dry, chewy and pretty much inedible. The only positive I can say is the donuts are a nice shape, and the pan has a nonstick finish, but it's only oven safe to 325 degrees. Really, it is not worth the money and I'm sorry I purchased it."
204726,1,DONT BUY IT,"I GOT THIS MP3 PLAYER FOR CHRISTMAS, IN A COUPLE OF DAYS IT BROKE. WHAT HAPPENDED WAS THAT THE CD WASNT FULLY IN THE SLOT SO WHEN I PRESS ""PLAY"" IT SAYS ""NO CD."" WELL I THINK NO BIG DEAL AND I PUT THE CD IN CORRECTLY, BUT WHEN I GO TO PRESS ""PLAY"" IT WONT WORK! I TRIED PUTTING IN NEW BATTERIES, USING THE AC ADAPTER, I TRIED EVERYTHING, BUT NOTHING SEEMED TO WORK. SO I RETURNED IT. ALSO THE CONTROLS FOR IT ARE VERY CONFUSING, THERE ISN'T EVEN AN OFF BUTTON, YOU HAVE TO OPEN IT TO TURN IT OFF. THE QUALITY OF THE SOUND IS GOOD, BUT IT HAS NO BASS AT ALL THE FM TUNER CANT PICK UP ANY SIGNALS, SO BASICALLY THIS CD/MP3 PLAYER IS HORRIBLE. GO FOR ANOTHER ONE OF RIO'S PRODUCTS LIKE THERE MINI MP3 PLAYERS. CHECK THEM OUT AT....."
204733,1,Could have been much better.,"As a life long Megadeth fan I was really disappointed with the track listing of the greatest hits CD. Some songs definately belonged but there are scores of examples that I could name that should have been there but were excluded. My conclusion is this: The album was most likely put together by a graph-paper-brained accountant instead of a real music fan. The one song that may have redeemed the whole project (had it been included) was Hook in Mouth from So Far So Good So What. But it too was left out. So don't waste your dough on this one. If you must have it, just borrow it from a friend and burn it."
204746,1,Not what you would think,"This book is not what you might think it is. It says it's based on the classic tv show The Ghost and Mrs. Muir but once you start to read it, you do not have to get past the first page, you realize it is nothing like the beloved program.This book is a story about some people in New England who just happen to have the same names as the tv characters. They don't resemble them in any other manner, especially characterization. Fanfiction for this show, beats this book 100%If you read it just for the story, it is okay. The plot is kind of a tired one but if you have nothing else to do......"
204882,1,Tintin a disappointment despite super graphics and cute characters,Story line just o.k.; graphics super; too long by far; viewed it with grandchildren ages 11 and 8; they found it not so interesting but wanted to see how it ended. Threw the video away after viewing it; not worth saving. Sorry.
204906,1,Broke 1st use,The connection was very hard to fit into the Nintendo and then it broke the first time trying to remove it. Also it looked nothing like the picture. Very cheaply made and bright orange.
204944,1,Not all that,"It looks stylish, but I don't believe it's any better than your average bluetooth set that costs less. I don't have a real point of reference here though, as this is my first bluetooth set. It claims to block out surrounding noise; it does not. It claims to block out wind noise. It does not. On a slightly windy day while walking on the beach, the person on the other end of the call could not hear me due to wind noise. I think that it was a little high priced, and does not deliver as the description claims. Also, it does not always charge completly, as the charger sometimes needs to be wiggled around before the charging light will come on."
205037,1,"If she's so smart, how come she ain't rich?","She may have the highest measured IQ, but so what? What has she done with her life except write a brain-teaser newspaper column? What has she created that has changed the way the world thinks or feels? What work of hers will endure? Not a thing. If this is genius, I'm happy being normal."
205040,1,Confusing,"I read this book because I wanted to learn more about the books available to pre-teens and teens. Also, because I expected to learn something about how the genre of problem books came into being. I found Ms. Feinberg's book to be confusing. It was not a discussion of the problem novel. Rather it was one woman's wandering and confusing monologue on her life - current and past - and her vague unease with the books her 12 year old son was reading. It did not provide any true information on the issue, only her subjective view of it. Despite the fact that she is a writer and runs a ""writer's workshop"" for children, she apparently never bothered to confront the school regarding her concerns. Instead, she wrote a book. I gave up half way through."
205060,1,Very disappointed,"I should have paid more attention to the reviews. Being a fan of horror satire (SCARY MOVIE etc) I thought this would be a great addition to the ones I already have. It isn't. In fact, it isn't even staying. I'll give it away as soon as I can find some poor unsuspecting soul who'll take it. It was a waste of my time and money.We have old looking teenagers gathering at a house that has a bad history. The resulting blood/mayhem is predictable and boring. Couple that with bad audio, non-existant effort on camera work, shoddy sets, amature actors and a script that should be shredded, we have a movie here that should come with warning labels. I'm thinking ""DO NOT BUY THIS MOVIE"" or ""IF YOU LIKE MOVIES WITH NO BUDGET, NO TALENT, NO HUMOR AND NO REDEEMABLE VALUE THIS MIGHT JUST BE WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR""Normally I try to find something good to say about the things I review, but honestly, this one totally defeats me."
205115,1,The Worst,"This is the worst video ever, it's not even funny. Spare yourself and avoid buying and watching this movie, it will result in a loss of 2hours of your life."
205145,1,waste of money,"this item lasted about two weeks before losing all audible sound with or without earphones and despite frequent cleanings. certainly expected better quality from sony. not worth the shipping to return it, nor would i want another."
205257,1,Started good but...,"Well, this started out interesting, but then it fell, not only flat, but not understandable. I had a hard time trying to figure out what was even going on. I think this story could have been written better though. The fault is on the author here, IMO.The characters' actions sometimes made absolutely no sense, and were so unrealistic, I actually found myself struggling to picture the story happening. Also, a lot of times it was not clear who was speaking, or what they were speaking about, or even what was happening. I had to read paragraphs over and over to finally grasp what I had just read. And then after that, I'd think, Why would THAT happen? Or, Why on earth did she let her mother do that?"
205332,1,A rewrite of press releases and newspaper articles,I was privy to this story and the book is nothing more than a quick rewrite of police press releases and local nrewspaper articles. For shame!
205339,1,Disappointed,"I was expecting more from this book. It brings to mind the saying ""Jack of all trades, and master of none"". The author tries to cram so much stuff into this book, that each subject is not gone into in any depth. It has very little if any meat."
205341,1,Read the book instead!,"I was truly not impressed with this film after reading the epic novel by Victor Hugo. It did not convey the same spirit and ideas that Hugo was trying to portray. The novel is made up of five volumes. Three fourths of this film was spent on the first volume, and Cosette's adult life seemed almost an afterthought. The musical was infinitely better. One positive note -- Liam Neeson's portrayal of Jean Valjean was rather good."
205347,1,anchovy paste spewed a mess in pantry,"I bought a 12 pack of this exact product about 6 months ago. It was not from this seller. They were kept in a cool pantry in a kitchen that is always temperature controlled. I used one right away. It was good. They all say Best By:Jan 27 2012. Today is Mar 2011. The remaining 11 have all swelled up, unrolled the end, and the contents has spewed out. I am throwing them all in the trash. I had previously purchased a 12 pack of Amore Anchovy paste and had them in my pantry for nearly two years as I used them all without any issue. I will stay away from Crown Prince. My packages say Imported From Morocco."
205363,1,ITS HELL ALRIGHT.,"This is the WORST Cooper album of the 70's. I can't stand it. Aside from the tracks GO TO HELL and I""M GOING HOME, maybe CHASING RAINBOWS, everthing on this album is a miss. The production is worse than the music. This is one of the worst production jobs ever. The rockers are poorly written and lame. And DISCO! A low point in the career of a musical genius as evidenced by FROM THE INSIDE and KILLER, and a bunch of others I could mention. Even LACE AND WHISKEY tops this with ease. Be honest and stop overrating this lame album."
205421,1,Caution,"I found myself looking up ""wrong"" answers and finding disagreements between this study guide and standard reference texts. I stopped using it early in Chapter 1 (I.M.)."
205457,1,lid lifter,"this is a great concept but the magnet is too weak to lift the lid out of the water, a fork works much better. I wasted the money I spent on this product!"
205490,1,Worste product to date!,As with the other reviews I wish I had read the reviews here before buying. This supposedly durable chew-bone took less the 3 minutes for my 20lb doxle to get chunks breaking off the end and swallowing little bits! I took it away from him immediately of course and fortunately he only managed to swallow a couple of very small pieces but a large chunk was nearly off and only missed being swallowed by a few seconds. BAD PRODUCT DO NOT BUY!! I wish I could give this negative stars!
205543,1,Picoult's own son wouldn't speak to her after reading this..,"(In the book club questions at the end, Picoult admits this.)Poor Anna, the self-proclaimed vessel, who ends up just a means to a thoroughly unsatisfying end anyway. Just awful. I feel emotionally beaten by this book. And even in these reviews, people express utter disinterest in Jesse, just like his parents! I became so emotionally invested in Anna and Jesse that my heart is broken by this book. I don't think I will pick up another book by the author again."
205571,1,Useless book with bad layout,"This book does have some above average photos. If that's what you want, then you should get it. THe layout of the book makes the book useless. Repeated most of the knowledge you already knew.Dont waste your money like me. It's an useless book."
205614,1,It never arrived!!!,I probably might have liked it but it never arrived and I was told it was out of stock when I complained. However it was in stock when I ordered. So I'm not happy.
205622,1,Christians can't spell,"Anyone who is offended by rock music is mentally unstable. More interesting would be a government-funded study into how out-dated religions can have adverse affects on today's society by contaminating the minds of children with silly stories about plagues, floods and some old man creating the world in seven days.

205648,1,Medline Drain Bag,Very dissatisfied with this product. Easily blocked and did not drain properly. I will not repurchase this item. You get what you pay for!
205668,1,Huh??,"I found this while searching for Jerry Lewis' ""Who's minding the store"". What the hell is this????"
205687,1,"bad unit, worse service","Before you buy anything from these clowns, try calling their customer serviceafter spending a half hour with the guy he said i had a bad unit but that they couldn't help me. thats the first and last mediagear product i am going to buy!"
205777,1,Specious analysis and smug prescriptions,"With friends like this, who needs a chador? Crittenden, stepdaughter of a powerful right-wing Canadian journalist/publisher, wife of the well connected son of one of Canada's most revered tv journalists, surveys the conditions of life for modern women from the olympian heights of great privilege -- and surprise, surprise -- finds it the smoking hoofprint of feminism in every direction. It would be easier to endure her specious historical analysis and smug social prescriptions, if they weren't coming from a woman able to pursue a rich, and doubtlessly fulfilling, career as a neo-conservative pundit and professional anti-feminist because her money and social standing make ""having it all"" possible -- for her. This book is just corpulent with self-satisfaction."
205876,1,What more is there to say?,"This series is a classic of its kind. It tells a good sci-fi story, even if it does sometimes get dragged down with dull and lengthy pontifications. It nevertheless told an interesting ""what if"" tale. It was basically a story told in four books, which ended in what seemed to be a conclusive ending, the resurrection capability repaired and restored, and everyone living happily ever after.Then along came ""Gods of the Riverworld"". Whatever possessed Farmer to write it is a mystery to me. It is anti-climactic, and has the feeling of being tacked on to the main body of work. It isn't that it is a bad read, it is just that it adds so little, and literally put me to sleep."
205903,1,Save your money,Not a good product for Maybelline. I used to buy the cool blues color which I love but the container they use is wood and you have to use a pencil sharpener almost all the time and at times the product would fall out of the wood pencil and break into pieces. I don't even think they make this any more as I can only find it on Amazon. I would not buy this again.
205958,1,A mistake on the first page? Seriously?,"Goodness. King George III was king of Great Britian at the time, not the king of England.How in the world did this get past?"
206017,1,DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY,"Shame on me for not doing my homework first or at least reading these reviews prior to purchasing a machine. A short time after having this dual VCR/DVD we encountered problems. Of course it started after the huge 90-day warranty period. We encountered jammed/torn up tapes and new movies in the VCR slot, blinking errors and a load humming like that of a 747 jet. We tried getting it fixed three times from an independant store w/ no luck. Like they say you can't polish ______. Magnavox agreed to send us another DVD/VCR for $100. No thanks. Do not waste your $$, buy another brand - this one is a true junker. Try Sony or another reputable brand - I have had good luck w/ Panasonic."
206022,1,necroshine is the only stand out track the rest is not thrash at all!,"this cd has overkill way out of it's eliment this cd dosn't thrash except the title track.this cd is more of a classic heavy metal album nothing more than good tunes maiden,priest,sabbath,dio and ozzy maybe.It sounds like D D listened to kiss to much and noone else had much to add musically.like they had to release something but had no tunes written just putting together anything they could."
206105,1,nb! translation of 1994 Spanish original,"This is not really a ""1999"" book, in case anyone is looking for the latest from Castells--rather it offers a translation of a collection of essays published in Spanish five years ago (and written a year or two before that, judging from the references). One would think this information should be part of the bibliographic description of the title."
206197,1,Not worth the money,"Item came damaged.... Wood cabinet was breaking apart, screws were missing, color was not what was shown on website.Don't buy this item, from what i've read people have returned and gotten the same thing a 2nd & 3rd time. Buy it in the store where you can see it and return it easily if it is damaged."
206218,1,Recipes are time consuming & difficult to prepare,"Unlike some of the other readers, i bought this book for the recipes, not for the pictures. I tried preparing some of the recipes and I found them to be time consuming, yes the food is exotic, but I don't have three or more hours of time to spare, which is what alot of these recipes require. The final results are good, you end up with delicious meals, I'm just saying they all take longer than the book says they do and some of the instructions are not clearly written."
206294,1,Oh Melissa... Where Did You Go?,"Let me start by saying that I have always been a huge, devoted fan of Melissa since day one back in the mid 80's. But one of the things I always loved was about her material was the intense, passionate lyrics & accoustic 12 string sound. This CD is lacking in both of these areas. Lyrics like ""I thought that I was dead so I called you from my bed"" and ""well I have lived 10 years plus 10 and 10 and 10 again"" were very disappointing to me from the same woman who wrote great tunes like ""Bring Me Some Water"" and ""Like The Way I Do"". However ""Breathe"", ""Lucky"", ""Will You Still Love Me"" and ""When You Find The One"" on this album are good tunes and more the style of Melissa we known and love. Ditch that drum machine Melissa we love you without it. Can someone please tell me what the heck that is they're saying throughout ""Tuesday Morning""?!"
206347,1,Drivel,What a disappointment! The first few chapters of this book are essentially meaningless fill and drivel. I will avoid this author in the future. Why not just one word per page? Then you can sell more paper!
206351,1,Misleading and poorly constructed,"To call this an ""Over the door"" rack is a gross overstatement. You cannot simply hang this on your door and use it. It comes with 8 screws -- but by the time you secure it adequately with the screws (and in reality, it will require more than 8 to stay put), the screws are providing the support, not the over the door hooks.If you are foolish enough to try to use it without the screws in the ""over the door hooks"" - after two or three times opening the door with any items in the unit, the hooks will migrate to the center and the top wire bends into an arch. It's extremely low quality.I also don't see the point of the hooks that connect the two sections, except possibly to assist you in spacing them. The bottom rack has to be screwed into the door, and it is better to use the outer corners of the unit than the places recommended by the manufacturer.In other words, don't buy this unless you like getting screwed."
206489,1,Okay speed but loud!,"I've had this PC for about three weeks and so far its been good and bad.The good part is it is much faster than my old K6 but much slower than my brother's Gateway 2GHz P4. He had it over the other day for some head to head gaming and his screamed at higher settings. Mine cost less though!!! And so far all but the newest games run great. I did notice the new Castle Wolfenstein was a little choppy, but I have so many older games I have been ithcing to play I don't mind. For [more money] I can buy a new video card and play anything I want.The other thing is the noise! This thing is loud! I could hardly hear my brother's P4 but my fan on my Compaq is a persistent loud hum. I have taken to turning on music in the background to drown it out. I called Compaq to see if I needed a new fan and the guy told me it was normal. Funny they didn't mention it in the add!"
206552,1,"Holst Singers subpar, singing music of their namesake","This should be *much* better than it is; the singing is less refined here, under Stephen Layton, than the ensemble's older recordings under Hilary Davan Wetton. Much of the repertoire fails to be compelling, too, which is a second strike. ""I Love My Love"", probably the best and most loved piece here, is sung at a painfully slow pace... Sorry, folks, but this disc just isn't worthwhile."
206580,1,An Irish Folktale that should not have been retold!,"I read this book before reading it to my little one and I am glad I did. Not only does it not have a positive message, it is a story of rewarded laziness and greed. And the message is not subtle either, it is all out there in the first line ..""Jamie O'Rourke was the laziest man in all of Ireland."" -- and he was still so at the end of the book -- and proud of it! The only decent aspect of the book are the illustrations which are very nice, but alas not enough to risk sending a totally wrong message to our children."
206619,1,"Great looks, good functionality, poor reliability","The microwave unit looks great in our kitchen. I love the design and the spacious oven room. It's easy to use, and have more advanced options you can program if you want. The 1250w comes handy for quick cooking. However, as noted in several other reviews the reliability leaves something to be desired. Mine broke down after two years. Most likely the fuse is blown because it's completely dead (common problem apparently after some research on the web). I have reverted to a 10-year old microwave while I try to find a place to have it repaired for less than what a replacement will cost."
206648,1,Clearly not made for me,"Well I guess I am not the target audience being a 40 something Mother and not a youngish geeky man. I think you would like this movie if you like the comics but otherwise, it just seemed so pointless.I was also very annoyed by The Hulk. To start he could not control his anger (just like in the tv series of the same name) and was a danger to others but then suddenly, he could control it and use it as he wanted to while working with others! I either missed something or this is a bad continuity error in the story.Not a fan."
206649,1,Love the movie...just wish I could actually watch it,Short and sweet...ordered the movie. It came in cracked and when I tried to return it online there was no way I could. So I will trash the one I got on here then head on base to buy one I can actually watch and return if there are issues.
206650,1,"Wow, people really love a good dose of crap huh?","This is like taking a box of super hero toys and jamming your head repeatedly into the box with your eyes wide open until you are blind and bleeding.Another film where it's obvious nobody really cared about actual cinema craft. Good story telling, good photography, screw that let's make a bunch of really idiotic action sequences for people who are dressed for no sensible reason at all like 8 year olds on Halloween.At least there are some decent visual effects, that is the only reason I can see this film deserving the one star I am obliged to give it.This film is horrendous. If you think a guy wearing a red white and blue unitard and mask with a big A on it for ""America"" (plus little wings for ears) reading dramatic lines of dialogue sounds like good cinema, then maybe this is the film for you. Clearly, most of America actually bought it. But to me this is as low as it gets."
206665,1,Ridiculous,"100 minutes of special effects. No real plot. I didn't expect a great movie, but this was a waste of time."
206696,1,"For a 101 book, it is WAAAAAAY off.","1. Not all Dominants and/or tops are male2. Not all submissives and/or bottoms are female3. If you title your book 101 you need to cover all the 101 basics and make it clear to the reader that there is a LOT more to BDSM than just tying up your bottom/sub to have sex with ""her""4. It took me three tries to get through reading this book because I found his view point to be so utterly frustrating, close-minded and male-dom centric.5. Because of books titled like this that people read for the first time with good intentions not knowing any better many of us in the community spend YEARS trying to undo the damage, or just avoiding schmucks that books like this have given the wrong impression to.6. Let me repeat point #2 in a different way as many new male doms reading this book seem to be confused. NOT ALL WOMEN ARE SUBMISSIVE OR YOUR BOTTOM. Do NOT try to top us because you think it is our gender role."
206748,1,Wrong Item from dealer,"I had ordered this using amazon and the vendor didn't send me the deluxe Hoth rebel soldier with Anti Vehicle Laser Cannon. Instead he sent me the basic hoth rebel soldier from the ""Power of the Force"" collection. I'm not overly complaining because the price is still very reasonable for it but it is'nt what I ordered. Be careful when ordering."
206801,1,still haven't received my sticker,It's been over a month and i still haven't got my sticker. They never responded to my email either. Good thing it was only 3 dollars.DONT BUY FROM THESE PEOPLE!!!!!!!
206837,1,Soehnle Piano Quattrotronic Scale Review,"If you have absolutely no interest in knowing what you weigh, this is the scale for you. I weighed myself five times in a five minute period, and the scale registered five different readings, some as much as twenty pounds apart. This scale is a piece of garbage. I sent it back the same day I received it."
206879,1,poor choice,I bought a pro diver by Invicta and had it for two years. I wore it only as a dress watch. It stopped working and was told it would cost more to repair it than I paid for the watch. Now have an expensive paperweight.
206888,1,boring,"I have liked Connelly's books int the past, but Closers is too much nuts and bolts for my taste. I put down the book after 1/3 and haven't pick it up since."
206948,1,Not ALL the Songs of The Producers on these CD's,"Well, one would think that this 2-CD set would haveALL the songs from the Broadway Musical, ""The Producers,""Especially one of the most popular,""There's Nothing Like a Show on Broadway""but...IT DOESN'T!!!Good thing I didn't spend the money to find out too late.It's a shame!!!!"
206969,1,Snooze,"Be warned. Despite South's outstanding musicianship and tremendous self-assurance, this album is so mellow that it might put you to sleep. South is being favorably compared to Coldplay, whose ""Parachutes"" album was favorably compared to Oasis, which seems more three sheets to the wind these days. But South is way off the map of rock; it's not trance-rock, it's sleep-rock. I think the litmus test for whether you like ""From Here On In"" is Radiohead's ""Kid A"" album; if you're impressed with ""Kid A,"" you might well like South. For me this stuff is annoying beyond belief."
207043,1,A Snooze,"This is just one more disc to join the hordes of disposable downtempo electronica. The music is banal, flat, and frankly, completely forgetable. It's not bad, exactly, it's just boring.Perhaps, for those of you who want something so slow and underwhelming as not to disturb your purple hazed evening, this album may find a place in your stereo. For those of you looking for something engaging, look elsewhere."
207069,1,"forgive hp, they know not what they do","perhaps you are considering such an outrageous price tag to compensate for epson's total lack of reliability, as that is what drove me to buy hp. i have a b8850 and it goes thru these ink cartridges like a baby goes thru bottles! no really, you can bank on buying 2 of each color a year if you print more than 10 pages a year. thats because hp imprints an expiration date on the cartridges to prevent you from stocking up when they go on sale. once the expiration date nears the printer will not print until the cartridge is replaced. i bought this less then a year ago and it is expired. even though it is half full i need to replace it. this printer costs me about 500$ a year and i dont use it much. other than cost and extreme sluggishness, its a fine printer and of all the 40~ cartridges ive gone thru in 3 years not one was ever defective."
207074,1,I'm calling for a refund,"HORRIBLE!!! My 4 month old son cried (he's not a crier either) the whole time. It did not hold his interested, nor my 3 years old. We only have Baby Noah which has kept their interest, but this DVD is absolutely is the worse. DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY ON THIS! If you are looking for a holiday themed video, buy Mickey's Christmas. The colors are great and the songs too. It keeps both my little one occupied while I make dinner. However, baby Santa music box does not help develop my baby, just makes him mad at me for watching this horrible thing. I would say anyone that was interested could have my copy for free, but then I wouldn't want to torture you!"
207082,1,The WORST Baby Einstein I've Seen,"It's horrible! There is WAY too much computer animation. Plus, repeating an entire segment/song is not a good idea for young children -- that's boring. I thought we needed every Baby Einstein DVD. But I was wrong. My daughter would much rather watch some of her other Baby Einsteins than this one. Don't waste your money!"
207103,1,It was okay,"Truthfully, the main reason I bought the CD was because of the Friend Of Mine remix. Yes, Kelly Price has talent and I like her as an artist but this album just did not touch me in any special way. It felt as if something vital was missing in her songs. I thought it was going to be a hit, but it isn't. Better luck next time."
207117,1,"Wow, that was dull","The second star is for the obvious intelligence on display and for DeLillo's mordant, incisive commentaries on post-modern society. But I must echo other reviewers complaints: this tedious narrative went nowhere and seemed to go out of its way to alienate the reader with obscure themes and unengaging characters. Every character thinks and speaks in the same voice; they are merely instruments for DeLillo's editorial content and do not resemble any homo sapiens I've met. I enjoyed White Noise and won't give up on DeLillo yet, but this one did nothing for me."
207147,1,weather station,The produce seems to work well but I don't like the reset procedure after changing the batteries. My biggest complaint is that the display is very hard to read in certain light conditions. A red or green readout would be much easier to see in low light. And the glass should be non-glare.
207192,1,Limousine liberal,"How can anyone take Al Franken seriously? It's not his politics that I disagree with but his attitude. He's mean, petty, and lacks the compassion that liberals claim to possess but, sadly, almost never do. It's because of this mean-spiritedness that I find so typical in those who profess to care about the common man that I am reluctant to identify myself as a liberal, even though that's where I stand politically. Besides, Franken is a limousine liberal, a hypocrite who makes money from the very system he professes to find so unfair."
207195,1,"While reading this, you may want to...","Check out frankenlies dot com. While Mr. Franken begs you to believe that honesty is of tantamount value to him, he seems to have some personal issues with holding himself up to such a high standard. There are more facts with references on this simple web page than what Mr. Franken was able to cram into his book.Typical liberal schlock - Sounds good, feels good, no facts to back up the argument, hmm...Guess I better make stuff up to slam the conservatives..."
207225,1,Team Franken?,"When I found out that ""Team Franken"" consisted of 14 Harvard undergrads who were charged with fact checking and debating, I knew what was coming. I wasn't wrong. There's nothing wrong with supporting a predetermined point of view, but that doesn't make it either objective or factual. Just more of the heated rhetoric and name-calling we get from both sides. Historians a hundred years from now are going to have one helluva time separating the wheat from the chaff, to put it diplomatically. This book is just more chaff to go with the Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter chaff, not to mention the 14 Harvard undergrads."
207238,1,Liberals up to their old tricks,"Al Franken just perputuates the usual labels liberals have brought upon themselves. Ann Coulter's Slander calls out the usual liberal tactics Franken and so many other liberals continue to use. For example, attacking someone politically because of their physical looks. Case in point is the title of Franken's last book, but once again he isn't above doing that in his fair and balanced look at the right."
207246,1,Crooked 11s,"The game itself: fun, great for all ages that can count, and even for all languages, when not everyone present can speak English.However, the low rating is due to this particular set I purchased, which lacked in quality. The black center line was smeared on a few pieces. And the dots on the 11s were crooked in the center line on a few pieces.I suggest getting the Mexican Train Dominoes with Electric Choo Choo Train by Puremco. I purchased this set as well, and it was perfect."
207249,1,Not nearly as good as Elrod alone,"At one point in the book the evil bad guy, Charon, points out the many shortcomings of this book's hero, and all of it is true. Richard is over a thousand years old and was a champion fighter even before he acquired superhuman powers, but a drunken lout can whip his ass with no trouble. He is incompetent, boorish, not especially bright, and unscrupulous; and his vampire ""mother"" Lady Sabra is even more repellent--for instance she uses a human sacrifice for Richard's first feeding.The writing is bad, the period flavor of the period bits unconvincing (King Arthur tends to lead to problems of anachronism, but it could have been handled better) and the characters, ""good"" and bad alike, repulsive. This is far below the excellent standard Elrod achieves on her own."
207251,1,Not For Us Full Figured Gals,"This bra runs tiny. The band for the 46G is shorter than the band on my normal 44G bra. Not to mention that the arm slots are tiny so once you do manage to get the stupid bra hooked you have to contort your arms to get them through the holes. Then there is the issue with the cups... they are tiny as well! They look fine before you attempt to put the bra on, but once it's on, you realize that there isn't as much as you thought. So my advice to my fellow full figures is to AVOID THIS BRA!!!!!"
207285,1,Deception,"Good selection but terrible sound. Only stereo sound (not Surround) and the quality of sound is very bad (like it's video). If the sound of the full shows of Mtv Unplugged is like this...i wont't buy any.In fact, i wont listend again this DVD. I thought than the Mtv products were perfect. I will drop it to the trash"
207296,1,Nice design. Poor quality. Poor craftsmanship.,Despite hand washing as recommended one weld attaching the handle to basket rusted and broke after only a few uses. Closer inspection revealed the handle was only welded to the thin mesh of the basket and not to the thick outer ring! Lesson learned: Beware Cook's Illustrated recommendations!
207369,1,"If I Knew Then, What I Know Now","Purchasing this book made me face the risks associated with online book purchases. Forbes' subject of analysis seems to keep eluding her, and that pursuit comes across as the only continuing thread of the book. Early references to ""the rhetoric of redemptive violence"" quickly blurred into a discussion of ""righteous violence,"" ""natural right,"" Black ""manliness"" and agency. The point is not that these aren't worthy topics of discussion; to the contrary, they clearly have salience for Forbes. The problem is that Forbes spends so much time engaging in polemics that she fails to expose her analysis of these topics in a way that shows her readers what connections she'd like us to draw from them. And the continuing train of malapropisms and gavel-banging only served to distract this reader's attempt to forge the necessary connections. All to say, if I knew then (when I ordered the text) what I know now I would have used my library card instead of my credit card."
207391,1,Waste of time and money,"Reading at 25,000 WPM is attractive. ""Mentally photographing"" a book within three minutes is attractive. There are heaps of books and journals and material out there to be read. Who wouldn't want to look at a page for less than a second and remember everything on it? That would be unreal.And it _is_ unreal.I tried it - the tangerine on my head, ""photographing"" etc. No increase in reading speed or improvement in comprehension and recall. The book did not benefit me in any way. In fact, it wasted a lot of my time.Don't waste your time and money on this."
207534,1,too slow,"This video has the right idea but goes way too slow. For some reason prenatal yoga videos I've watched, including this one, act like pregnant women can't workout at all. I at least want to break a sweat when I'm done. With this video it didn't happen. But I also was a runner before getting pregnant so maybe for others who haven't exercised they'd like it."
207545,1,Remember when TD had vision and distinction?,"This pointless release seems to be yet another in an endless onslaught of sub-par ""lost"" recordings that have no business being found.There's nothing on ""Sohoman"" that hasn't been heard before and much better. Obviously the pieces played here are not being ""Played"" at all but just recordings PRESENTED live, which is something [...] Froese and Co. started doing in the eighties. [....] anybody can do that.Classic, vintage Tangerine Dream is long,long gone. All there is left now are scraps and memories. It may be time for ol' Ed to shut down his computers and call it a life.(Musically, anyway)"
207578,1,Not for the advanced,"I own quite a few Firm workouts; this workout is not for the intermediate or advanced exerciser. There is no physical demand on your heartrate, and little, if no use, of weights. There is no real sense of the compound movement that the Firm is known for. The cuing is insufficient, and use of the sculpting stick can be replaced by the use of weights. If you are looking for a better cardio challenge, pick Super Cardio or Cardio Burn (yes, similar name but different instructor)."
207587,1,No Chemistry! No Comedy!,"I saw this movie today and it was bad. Really bad. There were at least twenty people in the the theater and I heard maybe three or four small laughs. The parts that tried to be funny were the parts from the commercials so we already knew what was going to happen. I don't know why Jennifer Aniston is so famous. She's hot, but she has no personality. I can't think of one good movie she's done. And Gerard Butler? He shouldn't be in romantic comedies. They all suck. He curls his mouth sideways trying to lose the scottish accent and it sounds ridiculous. He is much better in action movies. I am warning you. STAY AWAY FROM THIS DVD. IF YOU WATCH IT, YOU WILL BE SORRY. If anything, rent it."
207724,1,Cheap!!!!,"Very cheap, but for the price it is expected. I broke it after two weeks of using it. It also has the screen on the out side which I didnt like, and the phone can also slide open some if you bumped it."
207838,1,What happen to the fire. The other books were sizzling.,I thought this book could not stand with the others. It did not have enough passion. The story was so slow that it took me 3 days to finish a Francis Ray book that usually takes me hours to read.A. Barnes
208017,1,A surprising perspective,"I have absolutely no doubt that Greg Philo is totally sincere in his belief that his research came up with the conclusion that the media is biased in favour of IsraelI am equally sure that the findings are completely wrong!Totting up the number of minutes devoted to Israeli or Palestinian spokespeople does not amount to the words actually relating to support of the particular group you represent.To those of us who believe the bias is completely the other way, Greg Philo's findings come as a complete surprise and even a spokesperson for the BBC has questioned the veracity of the way the research has been interpreted.There are so many examples of anti Israel journalists and electronic media reporters, that it is truly hard to understand how this book has used the evidence availableJoy WolfeManchester UK"
208028,1,"It was a birthday present, I should've bought another NL cd","First of all, they should've never been dedicate the whole cd to B-ball, that's just imposible. So, yeah I was disappointed when I listened this Cd the first time. And I would never buy such a cd, but as I said, it was a present.. so I can't tell my friends how worse this cd is. No Limit is going down maybe, but I still love solo cd's of Master P, Silkk the Shocker... And we all know: 2pac was the best"
208131,1,SEEN IT ALL BEFORE- BORING,Nothing original in this slow moving film. Some dreadful acting from the female lead that is embarrasing to watch.Not worth wasting your time.
208230,1,Boring and pretentious . . .,"I have forced myself to read over half of this novel and am going to have to give up. Diane Johnson's writing style tries too hard to be clever and ends up sounding silly and pretentious. Her characters are two-dimensional and dull and what little plot developed early on surrounding a mysterious murder just about disappeared halfway through the book. I have not read ""Le Divorce,"" but based on other reviews here, I will give it a try. It can only be better than this mediocre novel."
208284,1,good in theory but not in practice,"At first, I thought this thing was great. I used it when my daughter was born when we traveled to my mother's house where there was no bassinet and also in her crib for daytime naps. However, when she was three weeks old and beginning to wiggle around I woke up one night because I heard her fussing. When I checked on her she had managed to wiggle her way out of the snuggle nest and in between it and the side of the crib. Needless to say the snuggle nest stayed at my mom's house when we came home that weekend, and we never touched it again. So I thinkit was a waste of money and a danger to my baby."
208295,1,Careful - Full Screen Rather than the Original Aspect Ratio,"I just received my DVD copy of Ship of Fools & was disappointed that it is presented in the hackneyed, butchered Standard/Full Screen rather than respecting the original aspect ratio. Such tampering/butchering should be illegal. It's not only a rippoff to the film's admires but its being sold without clearly warning the customer."
208356,1,Not a good choice.`,We have been using this for a few weeks now. It takes too much time to throw any heat at all. We are using it in a fairly small room. It stopped working two times now. We tried to plug it in later and it did come back on but we are worried it is going to stop working altogether. We are planning on sending it back.
208363,1,The monk drowned,"Never before have I read a book for the sole purpose of investigating for any glimmer of hope in terms of writing and character development. Malachy McCourt's autobiography is disappointing in the tale of a self-indulgent young man who grows into a self-indulgent old man. It also reminds one of the need for editting so that adults are not forced to read through page after page of spelling errors, contextual errors and poor grammar. The poor monk drowned in this tale rather than bob to the surface of reinforcement of Irish stereotypes by a man professing to rail against them."
208368,1,Simply Awful,"Our hero (and I use the term loosely) is one of the most irritating men I have ever read about in a romance novel. Not only is he constantly insulting Olivia, but he actually sneaks into her room, rifles through her belongings and reads her journal. INEXCUSABLE. And Olivia actually refers to him as ""charming"". If someone had so little respect for me that they would invade my privacy in such a manner, I would be hard pressed not to assault them physically. Anyone who finds Neville ""adorable"" has a screw loose. He doesn't strike me as particularly vulnerable, he comes across as insufferably cocky. If I was Olivia, I would sell my childhood home and move as far away from him as I could get. What a jerk. His wartime experiences (which we learn about on the LAST PAGE of the book) do not excuse his annoying, insulting, disrespectful and UNheroic behavior. This book can be summed up in a four letter work: YUCK"
208384,1,Object-oriented experts only need apply,"If you are making the gradual ascension into more complex Flash programming and want to explore the object-oriented approach then stay away. This is for programming experts only.If you are a professional programmer with a good amount of existing object-oriented skill then this might be what you are looking for.The examples used in this assume a very high knowledge of many of ActionScript's existing (and some would see as obscure) elements such as the drawing API . You end up trying to learn object-oriented concepts AND very complex unrelated material at the same time. It would be nice to start with simple examples that show the concepts and then build upon them.By chapter 3(of 12) I had enough, but forced myself through a few more and it all became a blur. Maybe after I learn OOP from another source I will come back to this one."
208434,1,very reduced volume !!!!!,"This book is a poor example of the first David Weems book which is far superior in content,mathematics, projects, and experimental projects,how to test drivers using Oscopes audio generators,omni directional speakers,appendix useful formulas,12 db per octive crossovers,transmission lines, it even has a EQ design for bass reproduction, so if you can find the first David Weems book 336 pages of one of the best books ever written on speaker building!! And if you think things have changed since then, they have! better drivers for less, but you cannot change the laws of physics all of the info in the first edition is still very relevent!!!!!RickElectronics Tech, I have been building and designing speaker systems since 1978........"

BUT WHEN I RECEIVED THE BOOK, THE TABLE OF CONTENTS IS ABSOLUTELY DIFFERENT! I HAVE NEVER THOUGHT AMAZON WOULD POST SUCH MISLEADING AND FALSE INFO!"
208511,1,1st CD-BEST 2nd CD-worse 3rd CD-where did Korn go?,"UUUGGHH! I have been a Korn fan from the beginning! Loved the 1st album and kinda liked the 2nd. Then this came out. I didn't lose faith and bought it right away. Compared to the first album, frankly, it *****. SELL OUTS!!!! Money, videos, more money, popularity from the masses and you end up with a CD that sounds like they were trying way to hard to make a ""nice"" Korn album. For all the TRUE fans out there, there is a huge difference between the old, REAL Korn and the new sold out Korn. Too bad guys, I thought you were going to keep it real forever."
208534,1,This Crap Couldn't Possibly be KoRn?,"Is this really KoRn or is it NSync in disguise? Never in my life could I imagine a band selling out as much as KoRn did on this recording. For all you recent ""fans"" of KoRn who like KoRn because recently KoRn was accepted on MTV (due to the fact they r about the same musically as Hanson) you should wake up and buy the self-titled KoRn cd. Maybe then you will understand what I am saying... Got The Life is about as hardcore as MMMbop and Freak on a Leash is a poor attempt by Jon Davis to prove he didn't sell out with his notorious incoherent babblings...too bad even the babbling are watered down just like the rest of this recording...In other words if you like this release I recommend you go out and buy the Hanson cd along with the Backstreet Boys cause KoRn is now officially gone pop. Anyone with sense go out and buy the self-titled KoRn cd and see what the real KoRn was before the money factor came in. I welcome discussion...."
208538,1,"corn belongs on a cob, dude....","but you posers who think you like metal because you listen to this? make me bad. firstly, corn limpy biskit, disturd, stinkin' park are not metal. They can't even play their instruments. They cover up for their inability to play by hammering the same chords out constantly, and their 'singer' covers up for his lack of talent by screeching and howling, and whining. You don't get proper metal bands like Iron Maiden whining 'Nobody loves me...' because Iron Maiden can actually PLAY their instruments. corn don't even have guitar solos, for christ's sake- a five-year-old could play corn's guitar parts."
208573,1,Does Not Work,First off - A+ seller... got here in decent time... Product does not work at all... i have had no changes in my skin tone. luckily i didnt get any of the side effects either. Just won't purchase ever again :( i was really excited after reading reviews of european users... too bad didn't work at all for me. :( i would send back but it's not the sellers fault it's useless...
208813,1,MEDIOCRE,"Alejandro Sanz must be one of the most overrated singer songwriters ever to have broken sales records in any country. After selling over 2 million copies of ""Mas"" in Spain on the strength of ""Corazon Partio"" and ""Y,Si Fuera Ella"",two songs which could hardly be described as innovative or ground breaking,Sanz returns with an album that resembles a collection of B sides and outtakes from ""Mas"". Forget the hype...neither is ""Mas"" a""Seargeant Peppers"" of Latin pop,nor is ""El Alma Al Aire"" anything more than a collection of second rate formula Italo-ballads sung by an artist whose tremendous success in Spain is based upon the fact that in that country the more mediocre the album, the more sales it generates... One listen to any album by Camela will more than justify this point. If you're looking for some cool,unpretentious latin pop,go buy yourself Paulina Rubio's hugely entertaining ""Paulina"" CD and enjoy!!!"
208821,1,Very disappointing,I read the series to the end in hope of a night in shinning armour saving Beauty from a wicked world. But not. I skipped most of all 3 books to get to the end. In fact I probably didn't read half of either book.I hope Rice never writes another book of this sort.
208867,1,seems pretty...,"It's pretty, but like most cheap jewelry, mine broke after the first few wears...go for quality."
208964,1,Like a bad sequel,"I felt at the end of this book like I felt after seeing Indiana Jones and Crystal Skull. Bad idea, never should have done it! To say that this is book is as bad as Indiana Jones 4 is a little too harsh, but there are many similarities. The plot of this book is not nearly as innovative as the first two and the characters become much less vibrant than the first two. The ending is just awful, unsatisfying, and self indulgent for the author. Its like he's trying to say something significant, but its totally a lost cause. The ""full cycle"" part of the book is also trite and mechanical.All in all, I recommend stopping with the Silver Hand."
208995,1,"This tape is just OK, and for beginners only.","I bought 3 tapes from this instructor (Swing, Tango, Foxtrot) and found the steps are pretty basic. I doubt you can dance Tango and Foxtrot this way in social dancing due to the progressive nature of these dances (meaning going counter clock wise around the dance floor like Waltz).I have learned ballroom dancing from many other tapes and virtually able to use most of the moves on the dance floor, but not these, except a few basic move in the Swing tape . Maybe it's just me. For 20$ a tape, it's a lot more expensive than what I pay for other instructional tapes."
209069,1,Violent and stereotypical,"Forrest Carter's writing is exceptional, but I found the cowboy and Indian stereotypes trite and there was way too much blood and guts for my taste."
209099,1,no receipt,i've been trying to get this cd for over 2 months now and still haven't received it. bad buisiness. i tried 2 dfferent vendors and still couldn't get a copy.

209190,1,wish it fit,"Great price! looks like a great product, but no way to tell for sure. Bulb does not fit on my 07 Prius. My guess is that if your car's backup lens can be easily removed so this bulb could be put in base first, it might fit. On my Prius where the light goes in bulb first - the bulb is too fat to fit through the hole. It would have been nice to know that before I bought the bulbs. I'll hold on to them in hopes I can find a car they will fit."
209230,1,one click mistake!!,"This book is awful - truly unfunny and poorly written. I am embarassed to have been misled by the reviews into buying it.It's supposed to be a hospitality book, but isn't. The worst part are the pictures - I truly do not have the verbal ability to describe how trashy, strange and ugly the pictures are. She has put her tips, recipes, etc on different kitchenette backgrounds, which include yellow plastic, mauve curtains, green linoleum,straight out of an ill kept 60's trailer home.The pictures of the food are worse- dark brown fake cookies, shocking pink frosting,and so on. I liked Dave's books. This leaves me mystified and a little revolted. Plus, can't give it away to the library- has some egregious and R rated tips on cleaning one's privates, getting money off drunk men, etc. Don't buy it."
209242,1,Well Researched--and Too Much So,"Kaplan is an excellent researcher. His book is also boring as all heck, too. Dickens, in my opinion, is usually quite funny, or poignant, or both. Don't bother, unless you're doing a paper on Dicken's kidney problems or his friends, and who cares?"
209270,1,An author's boring agenda,50 pages of spledid action wrapped in 550 pages of boring editorial. Great book to read if you are having trouble sleeeping !
209273,1,State your Point,"Having enjoyed earlier books by Mr. Crichton, I started this book expecting another enjoyable, easy read...no such luck. If this had been written with any heavier hand, the book would have been too heavy to lift. Absolute shlock. The environmentalist lawyer (supposed to be the 'good guy') was such a lame, lifeless character one has to wonder how he ever made it through law school. The underlying 'theme' to the book (ooh, global warming is the new threat for the governments of the world to hold over the heads of their idiot citizens) is such a stretch...with the current US government up for sale to the biggest bidder (yes, Mr. Abramhoff?); with color coded threat levels opening every day; and with ex-gov officials making statements like 'Abortion in the black community would decrease the crime rate,' who needs something like global warming to keep the masses under control?"
209296,1,DESERVES ZERO STARS!!,"If this book were a good thriller, one might be able to overlookthe horrible message it sends. Unfortunately, it fails miserablyon ALL levels. Hard to believe this is the same author whowrote Jurassic Park and The Andromeda Strain!! He is nowofficially a HACK!"
209342,1,Pixel Chix Chix 2 Story House,The Pixel Chix 2 Story House was suppose to intertwine with other Pixel Chix products - I had bought my granddaughter the car that you were suppose to hook up to the house so that the person could come out of the house and get into the car and vise versa - did not work - returned this item.
209395,1,Dont Bother,"Hawthorne Heights suck. the act like they are dark but their lyrics suck. And so far I've been wondering what is the deal with the telephone being off the hook in every video. its also on this albums cover. come on its not awesome to see a telephone off the hook, get that in your heads. Your music Sucks!"
209466,1,disappointing,"I agree with the ""reader from New York."" I read Lucky a couple weeks ago, so it's not fresh in my mind, but the fact is, I really didn't learn much from it. Sebold talks plenty about her own life and her family, but the reader sees very little of her recovery process. The book is ultimately not so much about rape as it is about the author. This is not a bad thing in that it indicates that Sebold does not let the rape define her, but I think the book would be a much stronger piece of work if the author had made more of an effort to put her rape into a greater context and provided more perspective. Given that there are other memoirs by rape survivors out there, Sebold just doesn't give us enough reason to read hers. Nancy Venable Raine and Patricia Weaver Francisco both do much better."
209519,1,Difficult to assemble/paint,Woodland Scenics are some of the hardest HO scale things to assemble and color. Very different product than the picture on amazon shows.
209555,1,Eh,"I'm a big fan of Jillian Michaels (I own 3 other DVDs of hers), but this one is just awkward. The last few times I've done it I've pulled or hurt weird muscles, the last one being my left calf. I'll keep it in the roataion, because the moves seem good for cardio, but I'm not really a fan of this one."

209650,1,disapointed,"We ordered this product because it was suggested by Consumer's Reports. We have been very disappointed. It does not hold very much water so it is always needing to be refilled, and the humidity in our room never seems to go up. A few times the humidifier just randomly starting chugging, and then started spewing water. Sometimes there will ever be puddles around it, so I am afraid to put it on the floor. Not sure if we ae just doing something wrong but it has been more trouble than its worth......"
209686,1,Pretty to look at but boring once you get to know it....,"Visually, a very appealing game indeed. Trouble is, there's this pesky linear aspect to it. As with many games like these, one starts to feel like one is a geriatric being wheeled about from one zoo exhibit to the next.Long and the short of it. If you like games for their playability this one falls short IMHO. I guess I'll just have to stick with good old Battlefield 2 as it seems to be the only serious FPS."
209702,1,TV Dud House,"Possibly the biggest let down yet. Now I know why they kept the description so vague. The phrasing to watch out for here is ""best of"" and not complete. I expected less of a sampling compilation DVD and more complete installments of each grouping. I guess ""best of"" is opinionated terminology. Why even bother to rip off what few people may even be interested in this, did they think they where going to get enough customers for a box set? Don't waste your money on this limited poor showing, it will only leave you wanting the episodes you thought should be on the DVD. I wish they listed all the episodes on the description,even the packaging omits this. They should've called it a copulation DVD as I got screwed.Just watch them on YouTube like everyone else!"
209720,1,"Fashionable Yes, Functional No","I have to agree with the consensus here, it's too small for the average user. Unless you plan on carrying your extra set of batteries in another bag, I would stay away. Hence, I'm returning mine."
209919,1,Notice the Hypocrisy!,"Make that NO stars!Moore and this movie are too ridiculous to take seriously. But notice the adoring responce of the Democrats--embracing this slob and plopping him next to the equally vile Jimmy Carter at their convention--compared to the hissy fit they're throwing on behalf of the sociopath, Boy Clinton, over ABC's docu-drama, Path to 9-11. Stunning hypocrisy!If they'd devoted as much energy to getting bin Laden and protecting this country from Islamo fascist terrorism when they had the chance (and were entrusted with the nation's security!), 9-11 may have been prevented, and we'd all be in a much stronger position today.The Stalinist left--Lotion Boys for the Jihadists--demonstrates its disdain and hatred of American at every turn."
210059,1,Same problem with microphone as the other 1 star reviews. BEWARE,"Owned for almost one year, but just started using on a regular basis in the last 2 months.The microphone died yesterday and now I have to find something else."
210071,1,Number two worst film of Wes Craven's carrer,In the scene that takes place centurys & centurys ago the characters talk with modern english instead of the type of english from long ago. Avoid it.
210093,1,Poor Connection with Xbox 360 controller,"The headset works perfectly fine while it is connected properly; it just becomes disconnected incredibly easily. The speaker quality is surprisingly lower than expected since its such a cumbersome ear piece, but again, it should have a better fastener for the controller itself. I do not recomend this headset"
210096,1,dont get this!,This is a waste of plastic! it broke for no reason an never truly worked well and it is not very comfortable
210121,1,PS3 Blu Ray Remote,"After getting the PS3 and loving it, i bought all the accessories. And was VERY dissapointed.Along with the fact my wife almost killed me for buying the PS3, she could not understand how the unit cost so much, and did not come with a remote!!!!!!!!The remote does not turn PS3 on and off!!!"
210178,1,Hated this thing,"Directions were suspect at best, did not work for me at all, and overall I kind of watching to smash my head in after trying to use this thing."
210198,1,glorified garbage,"how can anyone listen to this garbage.this is pure slop.enigma are still the worst of ever,next to enya of course.you want boring sound that makes no sense,the get this.you want good music,buy yourself a nice death metal cd."
210242,1,Not my favorite journal...,"Although I really like the cover and the generous number of pages, I was very disappointed in the lined pages. The lines are so light that I can not even see them as I am writing on a page. It's very frustrating and makes my pages look very sloppy.I do feel that the maker of this journal shouldn't even bother with lines if this is what they are going to provide to their customers. I know that I won't buy another journal from them."
210247,1,Awful vacuum!,"The first time I used it I thought it was great. The second time, it smelled like it was overheating and so we needed to unclog it and clean it out. Wish I would have returned it then! I've had it a year and a half now and after each room I need to empty it out. Most often the dust and hair goes into the filter on top, not the container below. It is constantly overheating and makes awful noises!"
210255,1,Very poor quality,"Yeah it came really fast but here's the big problem,the quality of this product is way too cheap.when my dughter tried to fit this on her,it wouldn't even fit on her arms and it ripped off right away,I was so disappointed.Don't ever try to order this,waste of time and money."
210266,1,Obee don't know me,"It's obvious: ""Obiwanbeeohbee"" is a putz. Stop criticizing the critic! Everyone is entitled to his/her own tastes. Let's face it, these ""citical reviews"" have become nothing more than chat rooms, venues for adoring fans to make fools of themselves with lavish verbose praise. But to take such a vitriolic attitude towards a reviewer who is simply expressing a personal opinion is too close to fascism for my taste. Vent your spleen somewhere else or lighten up. There ARE more important things in the world young man.By the way, I agree with Mr. Delahanty's assessment. The music is forced & disjointed with no identifiable connecting theme. But no one's perfect. I'll bide my time until the next album appears."
210283,1,Tension! What tension?,The tension lever doesn't seem to do anything at all and while pedaling there is some slipping so it ois not a smooth pedalling experience.
210310,1,Like paper mache,"The chairs look great and the finish is incredibly nice. Underneath, it's a ridiculous, flimsy engineered wood that doesn't hold up when you sit on it. Not only poor quality, but a health and safety hazard as well."
210318,1,Worst vacuum I have ever owned,"This is the worst vacuum I have ever owned. It has great suction both on hard floor and carpet. But....the wheels fall off of it after a while. The hose is not long enough and comes undone while vacuuming, slinging out and hitting you and your furniture. The filter gets dirty entirely too fast. This is the second Eureka vacuum cleaner I have owned and it will be the last I ever own. Buy a Shark, trust me!"
210372,1,Not so Perfect Pancake,"This was a total waste of money. A plain old skillet works much better. The ""non-stick"" surface is not non stick. The pancakes either stuck to the top or spilled out when I tried to flip them. I tried to give it to my son, but he didn't want it. I was amazed at how bad this product really was."
210397,1,never mind................,"I have read every single Koontz book, but geez........this was beyond bad. Yes an easy read, and I know I can't write, but didn't pull me in. Not scary, because it is just too ""out there"". These new Koontz books have really let me down."
210477,1,Save your money and your time,"This miniseries is miserably amateurish. I've seen better actors at school plays. Who wrote these favorable reviews? Their parents? Bad, bad, bad."
210486,1,"Absolute trash, break too easily","Don't bother with these, they are junk. I snapped one before it even turned a full revolution and another one snapped after being used for about 10 seconds. I bought them to use for broken bolts, and I could see it if the bolts were hardened, but they are standard bolts on a VW car. I finally used a regular drill bit and an Easy-Out. I wish I hadn't wasted the money on them. Buyer beware."
210505,1,Not the DVD it says,"Amazon's in-stock product is not the Criterion two-disc version. It is some sort of one-disc package imported from Mexico (it even says: Made in Mexico in big letters on the packaging). Terrible packaging, not Criterion quality anything."
210519,1,root canals are more pleasant,"A sure cure for insomnia this book is. A horrific and dry look at one of the many archetypes pondered in Jungian psychology, do yourself a favor and ""follow your bliss"" in your pocketbook. Rent the Star Wars Trilogy. It costs less and is far less boring in illustrating the heroes journey."
210546,1,Lying and preferring the rich to the poor,"are not part of the gospel of Jesus Christ. That so many think that Bush is a man of god shows how little the gospels are actually read. Jesus had only disdain for the rich and endless compassion for the poor and marginalized. Yet Bush's tax cuts are mostly for the rich and his drug program for seniors greatly aids big pharma. And Bush lied us into the war in Iraq and continues to lie every time he says the war there makes this country safer, when our own national intelligence estimates show that it does not.Shame, Mr Bush."
210600,1,Thought this was the answer.........,"I am seriously considering purchasing a Kindle and one of the drivers was the ability to receive the Wall Street Journal via the Kindle versus home delivery, which has been a constant problem with start/stop service. A subscription through Kindle seemed to be the perfect solution. I agree with what looks to be the overwhelming issue with that idea, the price. I, too, can't fathom the rational for the cost. I may still purchase the Kindle, but not (at least for now) to take care of my Journal delivery problem."
210605,1,ridiculous...unreadable,"If you want to read every word of the Wall Street Journal in order, this is for you. If you want to browse a newspaper and read what you choose, this is unworkable."
210657,1,Secret Diary,"Password protected, Address book, Secret Message writer and Decoder, Stationary, AND Diary all in one program. What more could you want? Well...maybe some copy and paste or easy backup.I used this diary wonderfully for two years--two years!--when I realized I couldn't copy and paste into Word, or somehow retrieve it. In five to ten years, that program won't be working and those TWO YEARS of my life...fully documented (10 a month at least) will be gone. I now have to print out every one of those pages...what a waste of paper! It's a wonderful wonderful program. But if you actually want to READ your diary 10 years from now...just look elsewhere. It's not worth it..."
210687,1,"""Buggy"" for sure!",I gave this software as a gift. It looks like I'm going to have to buy another--NOT another copy of this one! A few wrong keys hit and the CD has been wiped clean and there is no help to be had.Mavis Beacon--if you see this review--please HELP!
210689,1,"What you see, is not always What you Get !","Did not get the same color scheme/pattern as shown in the picture.Instead, it was more Vomit & Poop colored; making for a muddled, and an almost embarassing image.I will not wear it, so it is useless to Me.Contacted the Company, and asked if I could exchange it, as long as I paid the Shipping ,and got no response; except for : ""Make sure you leave us Positive Feedback.""Yeah sure...get right on that...just like you got right busy on my Customer Satisfaction.

210715,1,WWF Dreamcast GARBAGE,"This game is garbage because of the few modes you can play and limited wrestlers. Sure it is good to get 9 wreslters into the ring at one time and it is kind of fun to fight in the parking lot near the street. But once you play it for a week or less, you get really tired of it. I suggest selling your Dreamcast and buying a PS2 or an XBOX which both have better (wrestling) games. Thats why dreamcast went broke. It had such good potential but the people did not put enough good games. Most were too much arcade like games that you got tired of. The rest was all sports. Well actually mostly all the games are better than dreamcast on the XBOX and PS2."
210735,1,2spooky,Warning! This software is far too spooky for human eyes. Avoid at all costs! I haven't left my room in two weeks after realizing the skeleton was inside of me.
210756,1,nice idea,"I was so excited about being able to swim with music. I have been waiting for this type of product for a long time. .. I have been swimming with these earphones with my waterproof shuffle daily for a week. When any water enters my ears, it is so muffled that it is impossible to listen and swim at the same time. I have spent well over half hour per day to improve this problem. silicone gel, swimcap pulled over my ears... nothing stops the water from entering. I talked to customer support who was nice, but admitted that it was a common problem fro real swimmers. "" These were not designed for lap swimmers, it was made for being in the pool"" He seemed like the reurn was no problem as long as it was within 30 days. I like the cord length. Anything longer would interfere with swimming. I wear my shuffle on my arm, though. If you want it any other place(like on waist) I could see how that wold be problematic."
210791,1,Stunningly bad exploitation movie,"Okay, as you know, there are good movies, bad movies, and movies so bad that they're good. Then there are bad movies that you think might really be ironically good, but they're not. This is one of those.In the end, it's just dull in addition to having the requisite bad acting, negligible budget, transparent plotline, and yes, Ursula Andress in a wet dress. But this Porkies meets World War II movie just defies the imagination. Can it really be that bad? Yes, yes, it can."
210818,1,just another tv show,It's nothing special about this show. The acting is lame and the episodes are boring almost like Friends. Stay away from it.
210821,1,"not that I don't like this show, but..","As a Korean, I must comment that the korean acting/ writing is atrocious. Except for the girl, the guy and the flashback actors that speak korean butcher it to a point where many KOreans won't be able to understand it unless they write it down. I'm most certain that the show spends several milion dollars per - I just hope they get some better actors for season 2"
210878,1,Good idea but made for single use,This thing is awesome idea but made so cheap! I found it at walmart for $3 and am taking it back!
210912,1,$600?,I've seen this television at many Wal-Mart stores for under $500. Why would anyone want to buy this television for $600 + shipping here?
210919,1,Editorial is terrible,"I was looking forward to having a nice hardcopy of the Secret Teachings, as I had read some electronic versions in the past. The book has a nicely styled cover and exterior artwork - and that is all I can say good about the book. Typeset is very, very small - which is a trade off in print production, but isn't very easy to read. Also there are so many text problems that it really does seem to be unreadable. I am not sure if an OCR was done on a previous text or what the problem was but there are misspellings, word replacements, etc. that make this book a waste of time and money for me.You are probably better off finding an electronic copy and reading that."
210935,1,lacking creativity...,"Geto Boys are an amazing rap group.I love the regular version of this CD. However, I intentionally bought the ""clean version"" of this CD to play in a setting that required more socially acceptable language. The clean version is identical to the dirty version but with words muffled/silenced out of the song. This is one step better than the old school beeping out of the cusswords, but if you are going to take the time to edit the vocals out and actually press up an alternative version to your release, take the time and put in alternative vocals, so it flows and plays like an actual song not all butchered up. I know there is an additional cost to studio time, but there are additional sales to the ""edited"" version. It is an artistic & creativity thing really. If the artist is going to put out a ""chopped and screwed"" version of everything release, invest some time into your clean version and make it worthwhile or don't press a clean version up"
210943,1,Do not buy these unless you only need a hub for a month,"I bought 3 of these. The first one died shortly after a month, the second one lasted almost 3 months, and the third made it 9 months before it died. I used to think Belkin made good products, but these things are garbage."
210954,1,don't buy this pump,"this pump is bad news, i had one in my salt water tank for only 3 months when it shorted out and killed $500.00 of fish ... i'm still in mourning ... the company should be put out of business!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
211002,1,Worst movie of the year. And that's when I'm being nice.,"Once again, Craven proves his worthlessness as a director. He's had, what, 400 movies? 3 good ones? Tops? This movie is so bad, you can't even make fun of it. It follows every stereotype of crappy horror movies ever made. This is not a horror movie. This is a badly made comedy. However, since it didn't mean to be funny, it's crappy. I also saw and hated Boogeyman. Boogeyman is Gone With the Wind compared to this piece of monkey feces. Don't waste 100 minutes of your life. There are better, more entertaining things to do - like watching paint dry, watching an episode of Days of our Lives 30 times in a row, or just sleeping."
211016,1,Belkin USB PDA Adaptor,Completely useless. Made my Mac crash everytime I tried to hotsync. Returned it and got the Palm Connect USB adaptor which works perfectly (and was cheaper too.)
211134,1,Psuedo-scientific theism disguised as real science,Both logic and science are faulty in this book. This is little more than another weak attempt to establish a scientific basis for theism. Theism is about faith. Science is about evidence. The author fails miserably to link the two.
211137,1,loved him on youtube...,"i am a big reader, and i'm also into weird animal facts: enter John Green's ""Top Ten Animal Power Moves"" YouTube clip which I came across randomly. I clicked around some more while in the Vlog Brothers rabbit hole and found out that John Green is a novelist. I didn't realize initially that YA meant Young Adult, because of my limited exposure to the genre. Instead I actually thought people were just really enthusiastic about his work, so I ordered Looking For Alaska. It didn't have any emotional or philosophical resonance with me. I finished it because he is easy to read and occasionally funny, and at least engaging enough that I kept at it hoping for the book to plunge into something to which I can relate. That moment never happened for me, and I would not recommend this book to anyone over the age of 12."
211155,1,I have to take HOW many?,"After I received this, I saw I have to take at least four tablets a day! Too many."
211172,1,Disappointing DVD,"Without commenting on the content of the film itself, I'd only like to say that in my opinion the video quality was about the worst I've seen on DVD. As I watched white flecks popping like VHS dropouts, I was totally distracted from enjoying a film I've watched numerous times. I guess I've have been spoiled from viewing so many pristine images on most DVD releases."
211227,1,One dimensional,"Larry Summers was Sheryl Sandberg's mentor. A lot of female faculty defended Larry Summers. If these females were not obtuse, they must have good reasons to explain their positions. The book does not describe or explain them."
211386,1,"Its a good laugh, but don't waste your money","If your a liberial this book is great for your bashing America, Its full of liberial ideology.It doesn't matter that most of the facts are wrong, but if you study history and look at it objectively your will realize the author is just pulling things out of thin air and twisting facts without any factual knowledge just to suport his thesis, calling it revisionist history. After a good laugh I found it sad that there are so many people out there doing things that they are not qualified for and just don't have the decency to stop as well as there are people that believe everything they read just to support there ideology."
211414,1,Idk if they are worth the price,I bought them for parkour training shoes. First 20 min I was training I tried 2 cats and a few precisions. Well that ate the bottom up fast. I quickly put on my ko and was happy again. But by then the bottom has about 2/3 left on it. And the grip was horrible and felt like I was just sliding down the wall. When I got then they were tied around each other which made the bottom very rounded. This made it very weird compared to barefoot which is why I got them to be close to barefoot training.Not if your just freerunning or actually use them for what they are made for I'm sure they are a decent shoe. But for parkour they are completely crap.
211478,1,OK if youre not too concerned with looking cheesy,"Looking back at the pics for the item, I should have known better. They could work if you're just doing a lighthearted take on a Cowboys cheerleader. If you want a serious look for your costume, these boot tops are not the accessory for you. They were very loose and floppy looking. Just going with white boots is a better looking choice."
211484,1,Give me some decent writers!,"Okay where is the science in this show? It is suppose to be a science fiction show? It looked to me, more like a war story. Surely the producers could have hired a scientist to help them out and put some in.At the start the series showed promise and I was hoping once it warned up it would get better like B5 did but instead this one went worse.Like many stories, this one failed with the writers. The acting is quite good. I thought that Mary McDonnell played well as did Edward James Olmos. Also I liked the special effects too.In 4.5, many scenes that were clearly suppose to move me did not. Several seemed a repeat of earlier ones in the show.Nor did the ending make sense. No way would an advanced civilization allow itself to collapse back to pre-stone age. Why destroy the ships?"
211499,1,"Levi 511 ""skinny"" Silt","Terrible buy, they are over-priced, look nothing like whats in the picture, they don't even fit like 511's. the fit more like 514's (slim straights). Very displeased, they don't fit or look like the pants in the photograph."
211529,1,Yuck!!!!,"I love Pepperidge Farm Milano Cookies and I like almost every one of the different Milano flavors but I just don't like these raspberry milanos. The raspberry taste is very strong and very yucky! They taste fake too with a strong imitation raspberry flavor! Yuck! I recommend The Milk Chocolate Milanos, the chocolate Orange Milanos and the Mint Chocolate Milanos instead!"
211551,1,Honda Pilot owners: don't buy,"I was under the impression I had to have these for my 2005 Honda Pilot, which does not have crossbars, to use with the Highland soft-sided car top carrier. These bars are supposed to attach to your car using straps and clips, but the clips did not attach anywhere. Even after jury-rigging the straps, the bars still moved around and did not seem very secure. Was glad I purchased the Surelok Tiedown straps. I attached the car carrier straps to the crossbars anyway for a 6-hour trip, and everything worked fine (probably due to the extra tie-downs). But on the trip home, I did not attach the car carrier to the crossbars (attached side-to-side instead), and nothing budged. So if you have an older Pilot, I don't think you need these crossbars for the ""Highland 10391 Kar Pak Rainproof Soft-Sided Car Top Carrier."""
211561,1,Wing Chun - Misleading,The release date for this title is INCREDIBLY misleading. The footage looks like it was from the 70's. Very poor quality. I couldn't get more than 5 minutes into this. I felt like I was watching a film strip from elementary school.
211567,1,Come on people...,These guys aren't breaking any kind of ground with this typical story of girl-meets-guy and then problems ensue. It's only redeeming quality was Gérard Depardieu who has his share of moments which is why this movie gets two stars instead of one.
211595,1,my item is damaged!,Hi i dont have a problem with th seller or the movie its great! its just that the case is cracked at the top on both sides and bent at the bottom can i get another one?
211640,1,"Defective item, bad service","Item was defective. One zipper broke in days, another broke a day later. Bag is unusable. Contacted the seller and they didn't even bother to respond. You really don't want to buy this product, and definitely not from Jillian Leather."
211645,1,Does Not Work,"It is very nice to look at but it does not work. I ordered the PP500 but they sent a PP500NL (NL must mean ""non lifting""). I don't know if it was a mistake in shipment and they sent the wrong one, or it is because it is only for decoration and the ad is misleading."
211683,1,At Least It Doesn't Weigh Much,"I am grateful that this book is not very heavy, as I found myself carrying it around in my backpack all day yesterday. Other than that, I'm not exactly thrilled with this book. The recipes are indeed oversimplified and generally vague, and leave my wife (who grew up in a Filipino household) and I muttering, ""Wait, that can't be right...."""
211701,1,this is nonsense,"This product is a wast of money. You can put any potato on any dish at any place and wait and see.The eyes of the potato will sooner or later open and sprouts will develop. In a dark cupboard they will be light coloured and very elongated, seeking for light.Only a modest amount of light is sufficient to keep them short. In the course of a few month the tuber will wrinkle and the sprouts will grow taller (a few cm) and this sprout is fascinating to watch!It is a miniature plant with lots of morphological variation, depending on the cultivar used.Some display pink, purple or blue pigmentation. Some display soft hairs. Some are cylindrical or tapering or round, with our without side-sprouts developing.Anything you need is a potato and no other product!"
211758,1,It never came,"Unfortunately the product never came. The actually company said it was shipped, but it never came. I can not give any stars to this company, as they did not answer my e-mail request for an update. The star is for Amazon, who was able to get me a refund for my purchase."
211888,1,This is your Fugitive on drugs...,"Which way'd everybody go?!! Who's after whom,--forget why! Is cocaine contagious?...can one person take it and everyone around him become confused and run down? I think that's the message here. I really do. I think! (?) Bound to be a best seller, of course! I personally don't like working this hard at being entertained."
211947,1,lacking dimension,"I was really disappointed with this book. Elaine assumes a cyper-personality of a passive-submissive type, Francesca. Unfortunately, while the character has a lot of potential, she is never allowed to develop into anything."
211963,1,Not much help,Not much help. My son's head got no support from this.Though it did provide some extra cushioning
212013,1,"Boring, as far as true crime books go","I love mysteries and true crime stories, however I was disappointed with this one. The facts surrounding the case are interesting, but I found myself struggling to finish it...not the page turner I had hoped for."
212071,1,spiderman case,this is the most ridiculous item i have ever seen unless you are a fan of spiderman DON'T BUY IT. it looks weird and dont know how it can protect against scratches.
212186,1,Improperly named book,"Writers of Perl and XML books think that they're comedians. Hint: they're not. If I want some laughs I'll watch an old episode of Seinfeld-not buy this XML book.This book's title and the author's comments suggest that you can learn XML from his book without already knowing HTML. In fact, he tells the reader to ""put away the wheelbarrows full of knowledge and predispositions you may have acquired about SGML, HTML ..."" (page xi). And on the following page Simpson states that ""in order to understand and use XML productively"" you don't have to know anything about SGML or HTML. He's correct. But if you want to learn XML from 'this book' you do have to really know them. With everything he discusses, he does so by making reference to HTML. Thus the book is totally resistant to comprehension without this prior knowledge. In fact, a more appropriate title would be ""XML for those who thoroughly know HTML""Under the new premises, this book is still way below average."
212235,1,A REALLY BAD MEMORY CARD,"I have this only because it is necessary, but you need more than one memory card to do the job. Games use a lot of space in the memory card, you may need one memory card per game! I think it is too expensive because it DOESN'T do the job very well."
212254,1,70's MOR - Incomplete,"Sort of a poor man's Simon and Garfunkel, Seals and Crofts had a string of pleasant, if rarely profound, MOR hit singles during the 1970's. This collection has most of the hits, but ironically is missing the duo's biggest one ""Get Closer."" Granted this collection was first released on vinyl in 1975, one year before ""Get Closer"" hit the charts, but by the time this was issued on CD there was absolutely no reason why it could not have been expanded and updated. Blame sloppy work from Warner Brothers for this oversight. Two and a half stars"
212441,1,Garbage,"I litterally mailed this album to Hell. I microwaved it (if you've never done it, you must microwave at least one CD), broke it into pieces, then addressed the envelope to Hell, stamped it, and mailed the MoFo. It was that bad. Manowar, once Kings of Metal, have become Clowns of the Armageddon. Avoid later Manowar at all cost. Everything Triumph and back is awesome. Steel and death and kings and might, we are strong and bold and right. Fight and kill and die and fight, steel and kill and fight and might. They've become cliches of themselves. You suck Manowar. Eat Shizite and die.This album deserves NO stars, but the world demands one. I hate you world. Burn in hell. I will deliver thee to ash. ROAR!"
212453,1,please take my money!,"Sure - I'm going to buy this without any description, starring roles, or movie titles. NOT!!"
212486,1,I should have looked closer!!,"It's my own fault, but I did not realize this remote did not have number buttons. It works all right, but I like to change channels with number buttons too, as it's much faster. Stupid of me not to have looked closer before I bought it!"
212526,1,It's OK,"Thank god I bought this on craigslist. It looks really cool but thats about it. The sheild is way too HEAVY. It just can't hold it on its own. The beam sabors can't be held in the hands unless you use glue. The jets are cool how they move independent of each other, but thats about it. I would probably pass on this one."
212567,1,This game is not good. Enough said.,Not the Playstation version. It took 2 hours to beat. The voice acting is lame. Get another game.That's all I really have to say about that.
212599,1,Shipping rates,I paid about $16.50 for the flags (3 of them) and 25.99 for shipping--isn't this TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much for shipping?
212605,1,Take a pass,"I have had an identical experience to Doug Ratcliff who also reviewed this product. Incredibly slow response to commands not to mention the skipping, resetting, and locking up altogether. I wish I had read his review before I bought my unit. Since I'm 11 days past the 90 days, it's going to cost about 1/2 what I paid for the unit (plus shipping) to get another one which is guaranteed not to be a NEW unit, just one that has been ""remanufacutured"" which I think means ""repaired."" Maybe I'll get one of Doug's returned units that has been repaired."
212646,1,Tele Zapper does not work,I purchased this product but soon found it did not do what it is suppose to do. Calls are not blocked after I gave the Tele Zapper time to work. I will send the product back.
212648,1,not up to snuff yet!,"I thought this would eliminate all the annoyingxcomputer generated phone calls.And it has not, plus they continue to call back multiple times!1"
212754,1,Not heavy enough,need to wrap 3 or 4 around the base of a plastic plant to keep it in the gravel. waste of money.
212781,1,not new...,"Got this as a gift for my sister...it was supposed to be new, but I doubt it was. No shrink wrap or other packaging, the cd case wasn't sealed in any way. The condition is good at least, but not new. If there had been scratches or other signs of use, it would have been sent back. Next time I need to get old music like this, I'll download it rather than take a chance on getting used junk."
212792,1,Scratches Knives,"This machine made my blades sharp. However, it scratched my brand new knives on the side. Circular scratches. I don't recommend. I was very careful when pulling the knives through the appropriate stage. This is being returned."
212835,1,Don't Waste Your $$,"Got this product to train a young puppy early to promote good car manners and safety. She chewed through the chest piece in minutes. The case reads ""Secure Metal Hardware"", but that means nothing if there is no toughness in the harness. Don't waste your money; don't buy this product."
212891,1,has major flaw,"The idea is good, but as others have reviewed here, the top easily comes off even while gently grinding and dumps peppercorns onto your plate/dish. It happened to both myself and my wife while cooking, and we aren't clumsy oalfs (wait, hmmm no, we're really very careful)Two meals wrecked before I junked this item."
212892,1,Hiatt plays in Maine,"Where did the title ""Hiatt comes alive at Budokan"" come from when all the tracks where recorded during his 1994 tour, only one in California, and that one in San Luis Obispo, not at Boudokan??? The fifteen tracks represent some of Hiatts biggest hits including 8.""Have a little faith in me"", 11. ""Perfectly good guitar"",and ""Slow turning, but unfortunately the sound quality suffers compared to his studio albums. ""Walk On"", ""Perfectly good guitar"", and ""Bring the family"", are better choices if you want to hear John Hiatt at his best."
212905,1,this blows,I was so excited to have my new case for my new laptop. The day after receiving it I was putting everything in it and went to close it and the zipper caught. I try to unsnag it and it broke off. Hence I will be returning it. Lame
212948,1,Disappointed,"Like another reviewer on here, I am really disappointed with this product. It is super thin and already has a tear in it at the seams. I also can relate to another reviewer that claims that this is hard to fold. The reason that this one is hard to fold is because the wire around the perimeter of the shade that supports the whole thing is extremely thin and pliable. When the sun shade is in the window it bends and bows outwards at the top of my window, because of this the wire frame takes a new shape and then does not collapse on to itself like it should when it is time to put it away, so because it warps so easily it becomes difficult to fold it back into the figure eight. Horrible quality, stay away from this brand."
213010,1,Dangerous,My pediatrician told my husband and I not to buy this because of the danger of little toes getting stuck inbetween the big piano keys. She told us not to get his one at all....
213040,1,"Awful! Goes on unevenly, takes 30+ min. to day.","This polish goes on with streaks, regardless of how long you shake it. And it takes 30 minutes to dry each coat. I decided to try Orly after becoming irritated with the increasing cost of OPI polish. After the first use I realized that Orly is cheaper, because it is inferior! I'm going back to OPI and will now happily pay for a better product."
213138,1,Good general map of New Zealand,This map shows New Zealand as a whole with a few little inset maps of the larger towns and cities but it doesn't give any great detail for anything but the main roads.
213178,1,Case,"The web site recommends this case for this product. It is a great case, but not for this product as the size is too small. Please confirm before just buying a recommended product without checking size."
213207,1,false advertising,The description for this item was clearly 2 Meter/6.56 Feet and the cables I received were exactly 6 feet long. I will also mention that the gauge of this cable is down right pathetic. It is by far the thinnest USB cable I have ever seen.
213241,1,Dying motor,There is a reason Europe gets a 5 year warranty and the US only gets a one year warranty. Either Euopes laws a tougher on manufacturers or they know about this manufacturer. Motor design flaw allows over heating and instead of a cut off and re-set or thermostat breaker the unit burns out at the fuse.Try another model.
213334,1,Do not buy. Cheap and poorly made.,"Do not buy this. First off, it is too narrow for most new men's watch bands. (I was using it for a new men's fossil watch.) I had to ghetto-rig it to get it to lie flat. Secondly, the pin pushers are very cheap and poorly made. I broke all of them within a few minutes and never succeeded in getting one pin fully out. I got one pin partially out before all the tips bent or completely broke off. Save your money and get a better one."
213451,1,Do not buy this CD,The Tchaikovsky is admirably performed by Honda Clark but the recording engineers really [messed] up in making this CD. The Dvorak begins half way through the first movement. The introduction and exposition of this movement are completely cut off. These are both two of the greatest violin concertos. Buy a copy of each but not this one.
213502,1,Overrated!,I read through these 4 volumes 33 years ago when I came to England because many of my fellow students raved about them.The Hobbit is mildly amusing story suitable for children.The LOTR is rather dreary boring tale which requires a lot of perseverence to complete. I have not re-read it since unlike other novels that I have re-read multiple times purely because a good work of literature improves on re-reading.If you want to read a true epic with complicated human characters try reading a retelling of the Mahabharata.
213510,1,Beware,"I purchased the Power 2000 charger with 8 AA NiMH batteries. New out of the box only 7 of the 8 batteries would charge up. 3 of them checked on a battery tester after charging overnight showed only 80% capacity. Very disappointing. After spending $70 from a store that does not accept returns on batteries. VidPro wants $8.95 to return the defective battery. I did not purchase these on Amazon, wish I had because Jersey Camera sold me 4 for $25 and Amazon lists the same batteries 4 for $5."
213537,1,Meh,"I love history. I love food. This book should have been a no-brainer. However, the best I can say is that it is ""meh"". Is it well researched? Generally yes, although I found one very obvious flaw- when describing Columbus' encounter with man eating Caribs, the author was blatantly innacurate. Columbus never actually saw the Caribs; he only heard about them from the Taino.Aside from that, I found the book to be a tad dull which is a shame- just because a book is of an academic nature does not mean that it needs to be boring. The exception was the section on Medieval gas passing:}"
213542,1,OK for TV but NOT for live music,"If you are a live music fan you do not want these. While these were OK for TV (only gave them a breif trail on TV) They were not very good for listening to live music. There is a constant hiss/hum which becomes glaringly obvious between songs and can be heard during softer parts of the music. I use this at my desk so the headphones and base station are less than 4 feet from each other. I tried all three channels and tuning settings multiple times and I could not find one acceptable for me. Additionally, even on the best 2 channels I found I would occasionally hear lound distortions in the sound when I turned my head or chair; and these becoame painfully more frequent if I moved as far as 10-12 feet from the base station. Maybe my expectations where too high."
213625,1,Did Not Ignite Tried Everything.... Will not Replace...,"Does not work. I have never given a one star review, and I am giving this a two star review just because I like the way the soldering iron looks.....I purchased this Soldering Iron after taking into consideration all the reviews. Maybe I just got a lemon, but after proper filling it with butane; this piece did not ignite. I tried every angle, flow position, and even took the tip off. After at least a hundred clicks, this soldering iron still has not ignited. I tried to search the internet for a solution, but I have found nothing of value. I also went to the US Rep's website, and still no usefull information on this model. I really needed this for a laptop project I wanted to do today. I wasted a few bucks on butane, and I will still have to go get an el chepo soldering iron to do the job..."
213652,1,Hand strap? HAHAHA more like neck strap,"I am 100% dissatisfied with this ""hand"" strap. How can they even market this as a hand strap?I have a full size canon 50D with full battery grip, and this thing is still WAY TOO BIG to even consider it a hand strap. It is awful.I will be returning mine ASAP.I would almost consider this false advertising it is so bad. There's not a single person in the world with a hand that big.Do NOT buy this for a camera!"
213660,1,Don't Buy,"I purhased and used this Mr. Coffee for 3 weeks and then throw it away. The clean cycle comes on every 10 pots of coffee made. For unexplained reasons, coffee does not go into pot but out the top of the filter. This happened to me 2-3 times a week no matter how careful I was about positioning the pot under the filter. NOthing ruins your day like waking up to coffee running down your cabinets and floors. I would not even give this pot away to someone I don't know."
213691,1,Nope not even Close (too many adjectives),"Wow, based on all the 4 and 5 stars reviews this woman received I thought for sure I was going to get a quality CD. Psych, it just kills me to hear\read the comparisons made simple because she is suppose to be singing soul\R&B music. Again I say NOPE not even close...now we all know of some of today's good artist, like Angie Stone, Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, Alicia Keys, and India, all well deserving of R&B. But guess what there are other R&B ladies out there well deserving of all the adjectives you all bestowed on Joss Stone. Don't get too hyped, as if she the next best thing to sliced bread, simple because she is British, white and 16. Try listening to Vivian Green, Rhian Benson, Lizz Wright, Heather Headley, Ms. Abenna, and you'll see Joss Stone ain't nothing special in the R&B arena...NOT EVEN CLOSE on this CD...Joss has a nice voice think she would do better making and singing her own music rather than comvering so many songs...."
213692,1,Yuck,Sorry ...hard to get beyond the first few pages of this very pompous author's presentation of his world solutions to everything.
213720,1,Nah...,"First of all, it was expensive, second, there isn't anything in this book that isn't already easily accessible on the web.The tutorials did not go as smoothly as planned, even though I've been using PhotoShop for 4 years now. (Important) Steps seemed to be missing, and without them, you may as well not finish the tutorial.I've had this book for over a year, and to tell you the truth, the tutorials compiled in this book may very well be considered ""tacky and overused."" I suggest resourcing the web for the latest and greatest in special effects."
213809,1,Falls apart too easily and hard to clean,"The pieces do not have anyway to lock themselves together. This creates problems every time in the chopping process since the bowl separates from the chopper. When the food is finally chopped and you want to transfer it to the recipe, the base promptly falls off and spills the finely chopped ingredients over your work surface. It offended me and I chastised it severely. It is not among the living now and will sin no more."
213812,1,does not work,"be cautious ordering low priced games, as this one does not work even though it stated it was tested and cleaned before shipment."
213814,1,Beautiful Junque,"The outward appearance of this is very nice indeed. Upon turning it over, you find that the terminals are very close together at the ""bottom"" of the bowl formed by the bezel. As you try to get a screwdriver in at the proper angle, if you apply any torque to the terminal screws, the switch and light assembly shears off the ring connecting them to the button. The only way to avoid this is to very carefully connect fine (22 gage) wire to the terminals and then splice it to the wire coming out of the wall from the doorbell transformer. Heath and Zenith as separate companies used to stand for quality. This button-made in China, of course-is no credit to the current company, and it is disgusting that two honorable names are being used to peddle poorly designed, yet costly, junk like this."
213823,1,Not helpful at all.,"I found this book to not be helpful at all. The materials that I studied in this book were not on the test. I would not recommend buying this study guide, but if you do, please do not rely solely on this book helping you to pass the test. You will definitely need to buy other books and study guides."
213866,1,"Disappointing, but hey, what do you expect?","Josh Pais is a moderately talented filmmaker, and 7th Street shows some of the benefit of his experience in the industry. It's an interesting documentary, as far as it goes, but unfortunately that isn't very far.Pais lived on 7th Street for a number of years, but not during the *critical period* of 1975-1990. So, he missed out on much of the critical action. He presents gentrification as a given, as background, as back story. But, he gives few insights into why gentrification took place and why it took hold. And that's not surprising.The important ""actors"" in the gentrification drama wouldn't talk to him becauseessentially he was an outsider. Manny Schwartzenberg, the central figure in the film, played Pais like a puppet, telling him exactly what he wanted to hear ...but nothing, absolutely nothing of any importance.In summary, as a film 7th Street is interesting. As social criticism it's a failure."
213913,1,Obstacles to learning science,"This book is organized well, but communicates its subjects poorly. It communicates so poorly, in fact, that it seems almost intended to throw obstacles in the way of learning.It is poorly written and includes (often) unhelpful illustrations. The text seems designed to obscure information rather than imparting information. It forces the reader to work too hard when searching for key information. Where tables would be helpful in comparing and contrasting key attributes of related phenomena, it includes few. Paragraphs often hide key points at the bottom, rather than using topic sentences and paragraph structures that help the reader.One would think the text was written in a foreign language and then translated into English. It seems like the ""educators"" who wrote this may be ""experts"" on education but novices at communication. The editorial staff must be asleep at the wheel, or more focused on style than substance.Truly awful."
213917,1,Stock pot splitting down the side,"Notice my stock pot started splitting down the side the other day, presumably on the seam where they welded it together since it's a perfectly straight line. Wrote Cuisinart customer service since these supposedly have a lifetime warranty and they want me to send the pot back at my own expense and give them a check to cover their shipping back to me as if one way isn't bad enough. Then they'll decide if I ""abused"" it with high heat or otherwise (I haven't). From searching around on the internet, it sounds like best case I'd get it back in around 2 months anyway and it's fairly likely they'll just claim I abused it and not replace the pot, so I'll probably find some food safe solder or braze and attempt to repair it myself.Probably best to save for a better set. Better to buy expensive and only buy once for something like this."
213920,1,Dewalt has no pride,The package had no padding whatsoever pieces were everywhereDewalt said that I should have told the UPS driver Who Just threw the package out of the truck while still in motion.People like Dewalt and Ups should be banned from Nascar
213930,1,GE PAR 20 Bulbs glass falling out!,I bought about 20 of these lights and now the glass keeps falling out of the bulbs and smashing on the floor. I would find a different manufacturer to buy from.
213957,1,I don't like fantasy in my Sherlock,"Just recently the nerds on one of my favorite television shows ""The Big Bang Theory"" mentioned enjoying this movie. I remembered enjoying it when it first came out. And especially liking the teaser at the end of the credits which most of the audience missed as they had left the theatre. But re-watching this was a big disappointment. First of all the special effects take up way to much time in the movie that could have been given to establishing a better story line. The idea of Sherlock and Watson being together in school long before the ""Study in Scarlet"" is distasteful. The actor playing Holmes was badly cast. And the sensational ending is just too out of step with the real mood of the Holmes stories.The only thing really good about this is that it may have inspired the idea for Harry Potter."
213975,1,i've seen worse,"a fat guy chases two young girls (one very hot) around a castle in the califorina desert. how bad can that be? actually pretty bad but the girls keep things somewhat interesting and there's some gore and a few laughs along the way. the movie never really tries to make any sense but for some reason with this one that didn't bother me at all. as redbox rentals go, i've seen worse. how's that for a recommendation."
214020,1,Don't waste your time,While I'll admit that there were some humorous lines in the dialogue and it kept me somewhat intrigued throughout the movie as to the various mysteries despite how slow it was ... the ending made me feel like I had completely wasted my time.There is really no story besides events in peoples' lives that I don't really care about and most of the characters have pretty much no redeeming qualities that make me like or respect them in any way.
214055,1,dvd-r,"If I wanted DVD-Rs, I'd be burning them myself. Do it right please and just release them. And if they're not getting enough sales to justify releasing the seasons on permanent DVDs, maybe they should try releasing unrated versions. I enjoy the show, but if I actually buy it instead of watching it under outdated prudish US censorship rules, I think they shouldn't be blurring nudity or bleeping words. So far, the only season I've actually seen nudity or heard expletives in was the first. And in that case it would have been better to blur (Richard Hatch). I'll bet sales would soar on this season and the one with Jeff Probst's former girlfriend Julie if the seasons were uncensored! But please, release all of the seasons with regular DVDs instead of these on-demand DVD-Rs which so many people are stating are poor quality!"
214057,1,Lose Packaging,"When this product arrived, the contents were rattling around so bad that I had to open it up to see if it was broken (it was a gift for somebody else). The 5 disks inside were all lose. This is the worst CD case I have ever come across. None of the disks were broken, but the jury is still out on whether they will play properly. Keeping my fingers crossed. The other Survivor I purchased (Vanuatu), is in a different case that doesn't allow this to happen. I had already read a similar review regarding this issue here on Amazon, so I was forewarned. Can't see how this product could be shipped without the disks coming lose while in transit. Not the shippers fault - its the manufacturer."
214077,1,the worst dvd from rodney yee,I have many tapes from rodney yee and I expect more from this advenced dvd.
214087,1,Office Home and Student 2007,"I had been using Office 97 mostly just Word and Excel. Microsoft discontinued support for that version, so I thought I would try Office Home and Student 2007. For me it is like a completely different and difficult proposition to learn where all the simplest functions are. With 97 I found it easy to create a macro that would paste unformatted text. I recorded my steps to do an unformatted text paste in 2007, but when I use the macro it doesn't repeat the steps I recorded. With 2007 you have to select from eight toolbars before you can find the function you need to use. I may go back to the Office 97 suite even though it is now not supported by Microsoft. Nevertheless, I did get the software for 2/3 the price at a local retail store. Maybe I'll like it better later."
214098,1,"Hard to do simple tasks, but cheap price","The price was good; But it took me 5 minutes to figure out how to open a file, and another 5 minutes to save a file. I've been using the older versions of Office almost every day for a decade, and considered myself an expert in the tools, until the interface changed how everything is done. Maybe someday I'll discover a backwards compatible mode that lets me get work done; Till then I'm returning to the older version. An annoying feature is the big tool bar at the top, I have a wide screen monitor, and space at the top is precious, I wish the tool bar could be placed on the side where there is plenty of space to waste. Although I'm an engineer for the past 20 years, it took about 10 minutes to figure how to open the box; I've bought puzzles that are easier to figure out than this product.If you never used Office tools before, maybe this would be an OK version to learn, (once you figure out how to open the box)."
214107,1,Product Stinks!,"Perhaps if you would include written instructions on what all the new ""bells and whistles"" do, your product would be more useful to those of us who have used your previous editions. Documents that used to take me 3-5 minutes to type, layout, print and/or send now take 4-5 times as long. Why did you change all the icons and drop menus that you had before that made things so much easier! WHAT GIVES, I DIDN'T MEAN TO RATE THIS PRODUCT WITH EVEN 1 STAR AND NOW IT'S RATING IT AT 2, BUT I COULDN'T SEND IT WITHOUT FILLING THAT REQUIRED FIELD!"
214153,1,"Basic Hodgepodge, Unorganized","I saw a small write-up about this book in the newspaper. Intrigued by the title and encouraged by the review, I bought the book. I read through it despite not really enjoying it overall. It seemed real repetitive, unorganized and more or less, it is just a collection of metaphors with a little bit of narrative added to it. While it is a good basic book that you can reference if you are ever in need of a metaphor, if you are looking for a little more strategic use of language this is not it."
214157,1,the product was defective and just watched it for the first time yesterday,extremely scratched could not watch it at all extremely pissed off and angry. I might as well throw out the dvd completely useless
214160,1,It's no AIRPLANE.....,"When I found out at the end of the movie that one of the Zucker brothers was directing, it made everything clear.... They tried sooo hard to make this movie into a 2003 AIRPLANE...but it fell severely flat. This movie doesn't even come close to the 1979 classic! This movie was so horrid...I am even contemplating not buying the DVD! Now, that is sad! Please save your hard earned money for something better...."
214178,1,It's just.... OK,I was really excited... I even bought a new PCIe based system and the ATI X800. The game looks great but after an hour into the game... its just the same thing over and over and over and over. A guy always jumps out of a corner..you walk into a room.. the lights go out. There is no game play here. MultiPlayer bites.. it is SOO SOOO SOOO not worth the $$$ Far Cry is so much better.
214186,1,"$40, Wasted.","I, a former avid player of both the original Doom and Doom 2, was looking forward to a newer, souped up version of the same game. The familiar brown walled rooms, well lit, crawling with monsters for me to shoot.Instead, I get a first-person shooter re-hash of Resident Evil set in a poorly-lit sci-fi haunted house.The sound is excellent, the graphics, when you can see them, very good. How hard is it to depict darkness, though? Apparently, ID was up to the job. The game itself? Boring. One day's worth of playing was enough for me, then I uninstalled it and have wished ever since I bought Half-Life 2 instead."
214205,1,Taking it back 1st thing tomorrow,Opened it this evening and it's going back to the store for a refund tomorrow. The steam is very hot but the wand isn't heavy enough to remove the wrinkles. The hose gets extremely hot to the touch. The telescopic wand that holds the clothes is very flimsey and constantly moves when trying to iron a shirt. The hose is too short. Does not work well on a flat surface. It's to bad I had to give this a star at all just to review it.
214218,1,A blast from the past,"I'm not sure if this is the exact same dog from my childhood, but I too had a 'Go Go', way back in the late 80's, early 90's. According to my mother, Go Go would walk a few steps, and then fall over. She never made it around the block, and was a bit clunky, since small children would have to drag the dog after them.Also, my sister had Yo Yo, the walking cat."
214221,1,Don't waste your money,"My father-in-law spent over $40 for this toy and we unfortunately found out it was a huge waste of money. There is a definite reason they are now on sale everywhere. The dog is a jerky, mechanical, non-cuddly robot that does nothing but frustrate my 2 kids (ages 4 and 5) and frazzle my nerves because they both resort to shouting at it when it doesn't do what they want. There are hundreds of other toys out there that are more worth your hard earned $$."
214223,1,this is one of the worst toys i have ever gotten,hi I'm 9 and i got this for me ninth birthday I was so excited.it came a couple days after my birthday when i was at a friends my dad opened go go.all it did was go in a circle and bark.it's ugly too.it comes with a brush but the hair gets tangled in 5 days. the fur feels wierd too it's all oily and gross.it cmres with the hankerchief that is really ugly and also fells really wierd.Don't buy your kid this horrible product or they will cry!
214277,1,Huge misrepresentation,"While the book itself if great, the condition of it is not new, and has a salutation written on the inside of the front cover. Completely unacceptable, and we will not buy from Amazon again until this is corrected."
214301,1,Can we give negative stars? One star is far too kind...,"Our school switched all the faculty over to Word 2007 at the beginning of this academic year and I have been cursing ever since.a.) Simple tasks take forever. This morning I typed a simple quiz for a history class...nearly thirty minutes of wrangling and it still looks awful.b.) The hellforsaken program makes formatting hash out of nearly every document it touches, especially anything imported from Google Docs.c.) All the annoying automatic formatting rules are still there; yet now it is even harder to figure out how to turn them off.Blessedly, my personal laptop still has an older version, else I would be completely sunk.Sorry Bill, you just lost a long-time user."
214311,1,Very disappointing,"I bought this book because it covers exactly the area we were going to. I was extremely disappointed in this book. All regional guides suffer from the problem that they cover too large an area and therefore lack detail. The Footprint guide is worse than most. It has hardly any maps other than the colour ones at the end, which are almost useless. The hotel and restaurant reviews are very poor, and for some cities and regions are entirely lacking. There is very little in the way of useful transportation information. It's organized in such a way that it's hard to use - descriptions of a city or region are in a separate section from the hotel, restaurant and transportation information. The historical and other background information is scanty. If you can find a Moon or Rough Guide for the countries you'll be visiting you'll be much better off, or join the herd and get Lonely Planet."
214331,1,Not worth the money,"For the amount of money asked, I was expecting more information about tarpon, gear, and fishing tactics. Instead, what I got was a testimonial that one person likes to fish for tarpon - plus a short history of one former fishing site."
214368,1,Think Twice or more before buying this one please for your own good,Static is the best way to describe this phone and both of the other reviews are more than correct. These phones are in the rooms on military bases. Unfortunately this proves that they seem to give our great men and women that serve this country all the throw aways nobody else wants. let's start treating them like the stars they are like the celebrities get please for they are true heros and deserve the best.God Bless America & the worldThank You
214403,1,"Good songs, bad package.","Great White is a great rock n'roll band and their covers of Zep and others ARE worth checking out, but these tracks are available on two seperate discs already making this release needless, as well as in bad taste with the cover (which Amazon says is not an available image), and questionable. The band, and those who lost their lives in Rhode Island deserve better. There are other questionable releases the band is fighting against, so check out their official website before purchasing anything."
214428,1,Disappointed,"I have many GE phones, and I have had the most problems with this one. I had to send in my first one for repairs, and they sent me a second one. I got the second one back, and it still didn't work. I am very disappointed in this product."
214435,1,felt cheap and way to big,Timex Women's T29271 Elevated Classics Dress Sport Chic Silver-Tone Bracelet Watch - felt cheap and was way to big for a woman's hands. Resizing would have made it look silly for the number of links that needed to come out with the big clap underneath.
214479,1,What a waste of $$$,"What a waste of money. I am as much of a Tool and APC fan as anyone else here. But I was utterly disappointed with this music DVD. I thought it was infantile to say the least. It was Maynard's idea to make this DVD and it must have taken a hell of a lot convincing for the other members of APC to go ahead with this, but the fact that they did go ahead with it shows they are sorely lacking in judgement. They have targeted the lowest common denominator with this one, completely disappointed!"
214481,1,Very Poor Character Development,"I was unable to continue reading this book although I was half finished! I like the supposed premise of the book: a discussion of various Austen books while reading about the book club member's past and present lives. However, the characters were very undeveloped-- After reading 100+ pages, I could not get a firm grasp on Prudie, Jocelyn, Allegra, etc---they all sort of ran together. Only Grigg stood out because he was the only male character. How did this book ever get published? I would not recommend this book to anyone--In my 40+years of reading, this is only the second book that I was unable to finish--I generally persevere through average to below average books, however, this book was torture--I gave up!!"
214551,1,It's a pain in the butt to assemble,"This ""kit"" reminds me of Ikea furniture. Instructions incomplete, poor pictures. Tool provided are junk, and you need more. Things that could clean up the design were overlooked, just the first cNoUt and bolt and two pieces of the frame required me to disassemble 4 times due to the poor instructions. I haven't used it yet, but hope it will work fine.Again, a reall pain to build, and yes I do n"
214576,1,Misleading.,"I went into this workout as a beginner in ""salsa"", which from what the DVD case said, was ideal. The moves and dances were very hard to follow, and I found that, after attempting the ENTIRE workout, I never even broke a sweat. It's hard to burn calories when all you're doing is stumbling around confused. It was a waste of time for me, but more experienced dancers may get more out of it.The music and other dancers are enjoyable to watch, however."
214611,1,wat a load of crap,i had high hopes for bep album after listnin to songs like shut up and where is the love but wen i brought the album i was like why is evry1 saying this is a good album its crap. i wasted money on this album when i could of done something better like spend money on bog role.this must be the worst album yet from bep and probly the crappest album of the year. where is the love and shut up are the only good songs out of the album dont waste your money ive warned u
214612,1,A car Accident of melodic proportions....,"This has to be the single-most horrible accident on the face of the earth. The worst part of this ""band"" of ""musicians"" gaining success has to be the people actually buying the CD. What are you thinking? Yes you! Terrible! I wouldn't torture Iraqi soldiers with this ""music"". 1 out of 5, only because there's no decimal points."
214624,1,Thought it would be good,"I purchased this for my boyfriend upon him returning home from Fallujah. He didn't open it once. It's just not a book that a war veteran wants to read, or even be reminded of. He went through enough and all he really needed was professional help. Not a book that reiterates the pain and struggles that families endure."
214641,1,only one cool song..,"only one cool song, the rest is open to interpretation.. not to cool.. better off to buy the song digitally.."
214673,1,OH...I'm shaking in my shoes! NOT!,"This book is not even scary! On the back of the book... scare the toughest buff? Yeah right! I'm 11 years old and it didn't even scare me for a sec! God, I can write scarier stories than him! I am very dissapointed! Thank god I didn't buy this book, I got it out of the school library! The reason why I gave it 2 stars is because of the creativity and how he writes...good wording, or whatever. I don't reccomend this book at all! Just a waste of time!"
214712,1,Nothing to see here.,"Based on these reviews, I was going to buy the book, but after reading the lastest ABC news headline""Crime Writer RJ Ellory Caught Faking Amazon Reviews""and discovering that he had registerd fake Amazon accounts and giving 5-start reviews to himself and one-star reviews for the books of the other authors he thought were competitors, I have no interest in ready any more Mr. Rj Ellory's books"
214729,1,Don't put it in the dishwasher,"I bought this from this site based on the glowing reviews. I am not pleased with it at all--it takes up a heap of space in my utensils drawer; the cleaner thingy doesn't dislodge the garlic peels and pulp by a long shot and worst of all, it holds water after being washed. Dishwasher is the worst culprit. It takes ages to drain it all out. It seems my garlic press is from a different planet than the ones reviewed here!"
214785,1,I'm sorry but here's a REAL review.,"No. This is NOT the same Sean Paul that brought us Gimme the Light and my favorite Sean Paul song EVER Get Busy. I think the old guy ran away never to return again. Besides a few OKAY tracks like the hit singles (which one of them I can't stand) this CD is very repetitive leaving an uninspired taste in your mouth. Can you dance to this? Yeah. Maybe. IF YOU'RE DEAF. I'm telling you to stay away from this one and buy Durty Rock. Getting a new CD just to get a new CD is overrated anyway.Worst songs: I'll Take You ThereBreakoutBest songs: We Be Burnin' and Temperature, sadly.CDs worth: Just over a buck!(Just have someone burn it--at least you won't have to be disappointed after spending 15 bucks on...this.)"
214902,1,4 star average? Really?????,Really??? Its 100 pages of a guy gloating about his amazing achievement: Finding someone else's invention and claiming it as his own.
214906,1,One of her books I could not get through,Just such hard reading. I've read several of her other books and really enjoyed them. This is one I would not recommend.
214915,1,A fascinating look into the mind of fascism and nazism,"This book shows clearly the inner mental workings of extreme right-wing fascist Nazi-esque philosophy. By elevating the ego and selfish interests above all else, it prevents anyone from cooperating together on a common cause -- the perfect society to be ruled by an iron-fisted ""benevolent"" fascist dictatorship, an idea which Ayn Rand quite openly embraced. It's no surprise that her works, including Anthem, Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead, are extremely popular in militia/survivalist/skinhead/white supremacy circles, embraced as much as ""The Turner Diaries"" and other similar works."
214996,1,A true disappointment,"When I heard that a couple of the guys that surf the SQL newsgroups were writing a book I thought ""this will be great."" I couldn't have been more wrong. This is a terrible book. There are so many errors that the code is nigh useless. It's also full of bad advice and things that should never be in a book. My respect for these two has gone down a couple of notches - I'll have to watch their advice on the newsgroups a little more closely."
215001,1,Buy season 5 instead!,"Spongebob is completely different from seasons 1 2 and 3! The episodes dont have quality writing like seasons 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6."
215013,1,Horrible Card,"I have had this card for three months and I have had tons of problems. My camera couldn't read the card a few times and I had to reformatt. Now, card can't be read at all from camera or computer. A waste of money!"
215170,1,No Latex,If you intend to spray latex.. do not waste your time. It's good for spraying stains and that is about it...
215175,1,Ask for the Holy Spirit's leading when reading,"Before reading this book I asked the Holy Spirit to guide me through it and reveal truth. After a few chapters I began to realize that some of these things did not match up with scripture so I stopped reading. I trust the spirit answered and lead me down His path. I did not have peace while reading. If you choose to read, ask the Lord to guide you into truth."
215228,1,"Worst excuse for a ""reference"" book I've ever come across","Five years later, and nothing's changed - this book is still an embarrassment and Facts on File will never own up to it.I need not cite any other example than this one: The entry on the pioneering program ""Amos 'n' Andy"" runs for several pages - and through the entire piece, Lackmann confuses Charles Correll, who played Andy, with Freeman Gosden, who played Amos, persistently having it the other way round. If he cannot even get this elemental fact about the show straight, there is no reason to pay attention to any other assertion he might make. It's inexcusable.As others note, errors like this may be found on every single page. What a waste of paper.Readers interested in old-time radio are directed to the very excellent ""On the Air: the Encyclopedia of Old-Time Radio,"" by John Dunning."
215232,1,Psychological Waste of Time,"Well, I didn't watch an anime intil I was 20. The first was Robotech. Following the Giant Robot theme, I bought the Mobile Suit Gundam Wing Series. Unsatisfaction in that caused me to buy this. A friend told me that it was good and I decided I could trust his opinion.After I completed this series, I asked myself what I just watched. It has promising characters, but they all seem phychologically insane. Buy the two movies that follow these. The last movie doesn't help you understand the series, but it does offer one sl=mall explanation for one factor in the story.In essence, if you want a series that is big on story, DO NOT buy this. If you are a psychologists in training,buy this."
215238,1,Absolutely Awful,What a major letdown after A Very Special Christmas 1 & 2! These artists sound like they couldn't really be bothered with recording any holiday tunes; whether traditional or secular. Nothing stands out on this collection. Don't bother to waste your time and money.
215292,1,Yikes! 80's flashback,"I would definitely NOT recomend this. Don't be fooled by the cover. The guy does an intro to each session for about 30 seconds. Then it takes you back to 1989, with big hair, bad music and really, really, bad outfits. The kind with the tights and thongs. And a lot of big hair, lots of hairspray. I had to return it. No way I could follow the exercises when I couldn't get past the the fact the woman's bangs were 8 inches tall."
215296,1,Slightly disappointing in subtitles,"I bought this series as the package in amazon said ""completely subtitled in spanish"" but to my surprise, only series 8 was subtitled in spanish, all other series were without spanish subtitles.It's ok for me, but for my wife I now have to do some translation on the go. It would have been great if in fact all series were subtitled in spanish (like it said here on amazon)"
215305,1,its ok,i like the moral of the story.. but the pages with just a few words.. jesus! talk about minimalist! how are you supposed to keep a kids attention when all you are doing is turning pages and saying practically nothing.
215307,1,Not recommended,"There are two things I have against Mr. Silverstein's writing; firstly, his bad punctuation and style and secondly, in this book, the carving of initials on a tree. Are these qualities we wish to pass on?"
215310,1,Abusive Relationship,"All this book teaches your child is to take, take, take and never give back in relationship. It's a disgusting story about how to use those who love you."
215336,1,"Yep, this stuff blows.","My wife came home with this junk because she is always out to save the whales. I am online right now using Google to try and figure out how to get this white residue off all our glasses, dishes, and silverware. That is how I found these reviews, and wanted to chime in. Not only does this junk leave the white residue on everything, but she has had to rewash every load and the dishes are STILL dirty. I'm going to try the Vinegar trick the other lady mentioned. The only other thing we are wondering is....All our silverware is also VERY scratched up. Tiny circular scratches that you can't even feel, but look terrible in the light. Was NOT there before. The silverware in the drawer that has NOT gone thru the dishwasher with this new detergent is still perfect. ALL the pieces she has now run thru 3 times trying to get them clean are all scratched up. So, shouts out to Palmolive ECO who caused us to use 3 wash cycles on one load of dishes and ruined half our silverware."
215348,1,Don't waste your money. Does not work in Europe,I purchased this card for my trip to Europe only to find that it was inaccurate and did not work with the nuvi 500. total waste of money and could not get a refund because we did not come home for 2 months. You will get lost in Europe with this card.
215415,1,Not user Friendly for 6 month old,"I read the reviews and thought this would be the perfect gift for my 6 month old daughter at Christmas. I was very dissapointed in the amount of time it's on before it automatically turns off. To turn it on you press a star shaped button and it begins to do it's little song and dance. However if my daughter doesn't hit the drum in a time frame of about a minute it shuts off. She knows how to hit the drum and will crawl over to it and start hitting it to play but then gets disapointed when it doesn't make any noise. At 9 months, she still hasn't learned to press the button to make it start. She'd play with it more if her patting it started it up again."
215488,1,TERRIBLE,"Just like everyone else experienced, these are not magnetic at all. Better off using anything else to cover your vent!"
215512,1,Pure Dead magic=Pfft.,"Well I must say, I disagree with others. In my opinion, this book is not THAT exciting.Quote in book-'Should Lemony Snicket grow abit stale, here's the perfect antidote.'False. Just plain,plain false. Pure Dead Magic is very confusing and makes no sense at ALL. Lemony Snicket should ""not"" grow 'stale'. To me, this book is always heading right away into the events instead of letting us grip onto the book harder and try to figure out what will happen next. I pity this book, why did I bother wasting money on this...? Anywoo, Lemony Snicket literally 'Owns' over Pure dead magic, really."
215554,1,Two words- Walter Middy.,"In King's defensive review dated 9/18/99 he writes ""...Spooky8 was never intended to be a published book..."" Hogwash- King's new website is evidence that this book was intended to be a cash cow for him. King's big mistake in trying to defend this book as non-fiction is that he is protesting a bit too much. Stick with Mack Bolan books if you want more authenticity."
215624,1,My boyfriend's back,"I have seen this movie quiet a few times. I mustsay that I didn't enjoy it to much. I usually onlywatched it when there was nothing on and I fell asleepwith it on. I never really got the idea, I new they werefriends, but when he came back, he wasn't her boyfriend.I liked the original my boyfriends back, it was in 1989.It starred judith light, sandy duncan, and jill eikenberry.I don't know if it was ever released on video, that movie wouldget 5stars from me, this version I would say only 2stars to benice."
215671,1,Parts Missing AND Parts Broken,"Haven't even plugged the lights in yet, but I started the assembly of each light (which isn't easy for someone with big fingers and little patience). Some assembly required is an understatement with this kit.We're missing small parts for all of the spotlights and some of the wire ends are stripped off, so before I've even started wiring the lights outside, we've already lost 7 lights. Makes the full kit worth that much less.I'll update my review after finishing the installation. So far its a 1 star product..."
215672,1,outdoor lights,I am not all that happy with the Malibu outdoor lights. They are very thin plastic and break easily.I would look for something more durable if I were going to purchase lights again.I guess you get what you pay for.

215811,1,Battery dies in 6 months,"I had one of these years ago- lasted 2 years. Since then, they die within the year. Batteries are $20 to replace- so I purchased a new unit- it lasted 8 months if I was lucky. :("
215816,1,worst ever,"If you own this tv and have had no problems,,, SELL IT FAST while the getting is good,since i bought this tv they changed six bulbs in the first two years,when the number seven had to be changed they said the transformer was bad thats why the bulbs went bad so often.the the color wheel was giving poor qualty picture so they came back to change that whole color tray.now the color wheel is bad again,five years im glad i got the extended warrenty on this tv to bad i couldnt get a ten year one,now ill throw this tv out and never buy toshiba products ever again clearly the are junk.they should recall them all."
215861,1,Short version of the original book,"Why do I give this book only 2 stars? I don't agree with the way this book is marketed. Watch out for ordering this book, as there are two books of the same title, author and publisher. What's the difference? One of the books has the word 'icons' on it and has only 192 pages from the original book. The original book has 712 pages. Check that the ISBN's match for what you are after. I made the mistake of buying this book from a site that did not list the page numbers and went off the title, publisher, author and picture on the front cover. Since first writing this review, I have now returned to say that I have the original 712 paged book and am very happy with it. When it comes to a book like this, why settle for second best?"
215950,1,I couldn't finish the novel!,"From reading the other reviews on Amazon, it seems you either love or hate this novel. I'm falling on the disappointed side. I was hoping for a novel similar to what W. Somerset Maugham would write. Instead, this novel turned out to be painfully s-l-o-w and boring. After reading half the novel, I couldn't take it anymore. I had to bail out. I can't remember the last time that I quit a novel because it was so unreadable. It's apparant that Alan Furst is no W. Somerset Maugham."
215972,1,"One Nation, Two Cultures - Review","Some interesting points made, the author is too quick to draw a strong line connecting the ""moral decay"" of our society in part to non-traditional families. She focuses too strongly on the negative statistics associated with our changing family structure while under-stating the benefits (and statistics) that show how this individualism has allowed our country to prosper and which has provided women and minorities a world of opportunities which did not exist 50 years ago."
215995,1,misleading photo,"Your listing provides a picture of the older model Lee hand primer, The model number is for the new model, I ordered two because I prefer the old model and had hoped that the vendor had old stock. Yep I didn't cross check the model number so thats my bad, not putting in a new picture that accurately represents your product in a digital era where such changes are instant and almost cost free, your bad."
216013,1,Not focused and not aimed at right age level,"We bought several different potty training videos and this was, unexpectedly, the worst. The reason: It lacks focus. It comes off as more of a production made by people who never had kids, or at least don't remember what potty training is all about.It goes back and forth between Elmo and short film and animated clips that focus on independence and doing things for yourself. But it doesn't really hold a 2 year old's interest and the song lyrics and such are overly complicated for a child of that age. My older daughter, who's potty trained for years now, watched it more than my son who grew bored really fast.If you are going for entertainment, get this DVD, but if you want your little one to start giving up diapers, go with Potty Power."
216016,1,Maybe for older kids,"I bet this would be great for older kids that idolize Elmo, but didn't work for my 22 month old. There really isn't any visual of using the potty - more talking and singing about it. I was hoping for simple language and visuals instead."
216027,1,Different Product Than Pictured,"I ordered the Multimedia Studio but received the Activity Studio. I thought the activity studio was nice, but it wasn't what I wanted. Now I am afraid to reorder the multi-media, fearing the same thing will happen-especially, since I was not the only one this happened to."
216069,1,Deryl Dodd Live at Billy Bob's,"The actual tracks did not match the table of contents...however the content was outstanding. Other than the mixed up titles, it was well worth it."
216097,1,I'm waiting.....,"Ok, so I was really stoked when the movie boasted the use of real dead bodies (ROCK!) but as I watched and waited patiently for something to happen.....uh the credits started to roll. I was hoping for some kind of nasty corpse to rise up and start killing fools left and right...instead fools were being killed left and right by...well don't wanna spoil, but you never really ""see"" any killing or people being attacked. Boring. Definitely my least favorite of the After Dark set. And the main character blond bimbo med student? Annoying as @#&% through the whole movie. It sucks!!!!!"
216154,1,Trash,I might by too picky - but I prefer the books I read to have a point. After 500 pages of - I don't know what - I'd like someone to tell me what that thing was about. Their enduring love?! That's a stretch. Besides their active sex life - I'm not sure what held the star crossed lovers together. The jumping back and forth; the profanity; the gory medical details; him getting beat up - it was a complete headache. This book was chosen for my book club - and that's the only reason I finished it. I was relieved when it was over. This was the author's first book - and hope it's the last. You work hard for your money - don't spend it on this.
216209,1,non-story,"This book is a disappointment to say the least. While it does give the reader a very predictable romance, it never resolves the ""mystery"" that is supposed to be part of the plot. As the lovers decide to marry - ""against all odds"" that they would be attracted to one another - they end the book committed to trying to find out ""who did it."" It's a non-plot...sorry I spent money on it."
216297,1,2 different styles not mentioned.,"I accidentally got the style that projects a beam along the edge of the blade and really liked the unit. I bought one for a friend and got one that projects a beam about an 1/8"" to the left of the blade which defeats the idea of the laser guide. From the various descriptions and pictures you can't always tell what you are buying: best to buy the unit in person."
216307,1,The ferrets like them but it has an unfortunate effect on their digestion.,"My ferrets enjoyed these and ate them greedily. So much so that they all got explosive diarrhea. At first, I attributed this to my allowing them to eat four or five treats at the same time, so I started feeding them the treats one at a time. This helped some but still caused loose stools. Since I had five ferrets at the time (one has since passed away), and they all demonstrated the same effect, I doubt it is specific to individuals."
216326,1,Sad editing process in Kindle edition,I agree with Ken and want to add that the typographical errors in the Amazon Kindle edition made it almost unreadable. Please have some technician correct this!It did provide me with valuable information and connections about the Colorado/Denver people and an early perspective on that history.

216431,1,"Terrible, terrible product","I can't even get this thing to work continuously for more than 5 minutes. Emailed Tech Support and was asked to upgrade firmware. Firmware upgrade was useless. Same problem; still can't have the thing running for more than 5 minutes. I copied some data to the NAS, but I can't copy it back to my local drive.I returned the NAS back to my local electronic store (translated: Fry's) and got a second one, and then a third one. Each one of them has the exact same problem: won't work for more than 5 minutes.Again, being analytical, I tried each of this thing on 3 different computers with 3 different OSes (Win 98SE, Win2K, WinXP). Same problem. Hmmmm.... I don't think it's my computers or my technical expertise or lack thereof...(...)I do have Tritton's external USB enclosure. Basic enclosure system works well. But I think Tritton should never have released their NAS products."
216440,1,R..... not PG,"This movie is rated PG; yet I was not able to show this movie to my kids. I know that the world is full of aggression, however how can I sit with my family and watch a movie with so much violence between kids. Some will tell me that it is good to expose children to such violence and possibly reality of life and the human beings among each other. I totally disagree.This movie should be rated R and not PG2 stars, only because of the great acting; the story is basic, about a father feeling awful for leaving his best buddy behind during the Vietnam War while his kids are fighting other children over a tree hut. I know I am probably going to bombarded with bad feedbacks however this is my honest opinion about this movie.(Have you ever noticed that when someone writes a review that doesn't give the artist 4 or 5 stars - the reviewer gets slammed in the votes?)"
216490,1,Academic Elitism At Its Worst,"This book, beside being boring is superficial, and a bit presumptuous. There could have been a more meaningful treatise on the concept of spin, political correctness, and corporate and educational jargon, and many of the ironies of modern life which go well beyond mere deception. Instead, we get a tome significant only for being so ponderous despite being so small.If the book were not so titled, no one would have bought it."
216492,1,The ultimate BS,"What a joke. Isn't there enough BS permeating the atmosphere to blow it up any further with a philosophical analysis of the substance? It reminds me of an incident a long time ago when a friend ordered me to analyze the psychological reasons for my being hungry. I ate, and I was fine. (At 120 pounds, I didn't see much of a problem in that solution.) Does that make me unintellectual? Since I am a teacher and a writer, I have the funny feeling that I can plead innocent to that charge.I would, however, like to award Prof. Frankfurt TEN stars for discovering that there is, indeed, money in education after all. Anyone who can peddle this mini-dribble for a price and get away with it has truly found the secret of economic life in today's BS world."
216513,1,Junk,"First of all, I'd like to know why McGard doesn't include this tool with their lug nut set? After all, the lug nuts are useless without this tool... This socket drive is sub-standard, as it's made out of aluminum. Apparently McGard doesn't realize that this tool will be used to torque on and off lug nuts! I started to do this (on the first lug nut) and noticed the splines were beginning to bend on this socket... With this result, I took off the lug nut and threw the whole kit away!"
216569,1,sucks,"It's not that the router sucks - the router works fine. But this is a >VPN< router with ZERO netgear support for VPN. You cannot find the VPN client software on the website - it's a dead link. After locating the client software there's no serial number or ""buy"" option - it's a dead link. I'm currently on hold for 20 minutes with tech support from an off-shore call center with unintelligble english. Netgear is clearly not serious about their customer service. Buy Linksys."
216580,1,Misleading - Main Ingredient is Soy,"I started lactating the other day and I was like WTF guys aren's suppose to lactate....so I checked every food I was eating and came to realize that the main ingredient of this protein bar is SOY protein. Oh gee, thanks Amazon for not disclosing that and thanks PureFit for not advertising that as well....if Soy was good for you then wouldn't they want you to know there' Soy in there?"
216608,1,Started off fresh ended up a real stinker,When I first applied it was fresh and summery...shortly after the smell reminded me of the peeling an onion. My eyes sorta stung and I justed wanted to be anywhere but in my skin. Very harsh after the summery scent wears away. Something in the same vein that I did like was Pleasures by Estee Lauder.
216681,1,Don't buy this collar!,Purchased collar from manufacturer since Amazon was out of stock. I am VERY disappointed and would never put this thing on my cat. Very restricting collar with uncomfortable neck. Looks better in picture than the real deal....Debbie

216834,1,unstable,"This tool is a joke. I returned it the same day I received it. The hokey plastic connector is wobbly and ill concieved. Use one of the third hand extension poles (also made by fastcap) with the laser mount for 1/5th the price and better performance. Monsterously oversized blowmold case weighs more than the tool. This is one sad device, and would make its owner the butt of every ""limp pole"" joke imaginable. Look for this to be redesigned SOON!"
216838,1,BEWARE of rebates from Kworld,"BEWARE of the fine prints for Kworld rebates. You cannot use the email as a receipt and their reply email said, ""invalid and you cannot resubmit!!!"" Do a google search for ""Kworld and rebates"" and you will see how this company works w/ not honoring rebates. TERRIBLESo don't let them fool you w/ any rebates!!!"
216841,1,not something you carry in your pocket,It works fine. Recognition foftware works fine. You will be happy untill...1. You realize that you need digital paper TM that cost a lot of money. They rip you off on consumables.2. You bring it to work and see the reaction of your colleagues (male and female). It is too big for a pen. It's design and size is way too risque and resemble a... Here is the kicker - it vibrates when you make a check mark (finish page). After you see the looks when they hear that...
216899,1,"WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T BUY THIS","This has got to be one of the WORST products I have ever seen! I mean, how difficult is it to make a transmitter and a receiver that communicate reliably??I tried setting the Child unit up within a clear line of sight, no more than 15 FEET AWAY from the PArent unit, and they still couldn't maintain an open channel!! The ""clear moments"" were few and faaaar between, most of the time the STATIC was CONSTANT - even when the volume was on its lowest setting!With the volume on low, we can't hear our daughter crying and have to wait for her to go ""nuclear"" before we can hear it. I can't even use these wasteproducts as bookends or boat anchors, so they GO STRAIGHT IN THE GARBAGE.Don't buy this!"
216966,1,Technology Tragedy,"Any one who is a Liza fan is going to be disappointed in how uneven this recording is. You simply do not get the power of her voice and even worse, the level of the sound is uneven prohbiting a turn up of the volume from being a solution. It is hard to imagine that the album producers for such a major star would let such a poor quality recording be issued. It's like listening to a concert from the lobby. No wonder so many used versions are for sale. It is a shame cause the song selection may be the best from any of those existing and it was recorded whn Liza was still @ the peak of her abilities."
217038,1,"Expensive, unwieldy, uncomfortable","I purchase this cot pad to use with the Teton Sports Outfitter XXL cot. The pad is hype. It is huge but has little supportive substance. I would not recommend using it on it's own. I don't recommend buying it at all. The foam compresses to nearly nothing and yields to the least amount of pressure. This means it offers nearly zero cushioning for you while you sleep. It is a very expensive add-on to an expensive cot. It's size renders it useful only in car camping or cotting it at the house. It takes up so much space that I would question the value of it for car camping IF it offered some support. However, since it doesn't provide support it is a moot point. Fellow Amazonians - your money will be better spent elsewhere."
217088,1,Awful taste,"I can't really say whether these helped at all because peppermint and the taste of liquid vitamins is not a good combination. It takes forever for them to dissolve, so you get to taste it thoroughly."
217108,1,It's not easy!,I disliked this product. Simply because IT IS SO DARN CONFUSING! Really! I couldn't figure this out! I guess I would only recommend it to someone who knows technology!~Kristina
217158,1,Insainly Stupid,"First there is no time zone setting. Reading the directions for enabling the automatic setting is kind of like being in the middle of a comedy routine. If you intend to buy this clock I would recomend going to the Weems & Plath web site and reading the user manual. If you do you will not buy this clock, you will however get a good laugh. They also recomend removing the battery whenever you are not going to use the clock for a while, then going through the 7 step 48 hour set up procedure that in my case didn't work anyway?????????????????????????????????????????????It looks nice enough so I would buy a non automatic version. The mounting system is pretty nice."
217211,1,The Crucifer of Blood,"Charlton Heston should have never made this movie - not his cup of tea at all - the worst Sherlock Holems we have ever seen - we do not recommend it at all - ugly, ugly, ugly"
217226,1,Beware this pirated DVD,"If you have an old VHS or DVD from the movie of the Beatles ""Magical Mystery Tour"", keep it with you. Certainly it must be better than this one for sale on Amazon Web site.I say that because I have an ancient version from the middle of the 90's that I supposed it needed an upgrade. So I decided to buy this ""remastered-release"". It's simply awful, the picture is dirty and fuzzy. In addition, there's no subtitle nor special bonus on the menu. I really don't understand how Amazon can sell a product so bad like that and the Apple Corporation allows exposing the image of The Beatles with no control over the quality.So, if you haven't bought yet the Magical Mystery Tour DVD, don't do it now. Wait at least until there's an official release like Help and A Hard day's night DVDs. Avoid this pirated copy. By the way, is it permitted in the USA?"
217262,1,A Call to Conscience - MLK Jr.,"I was somewhat disappointed in this product. The sound quality on some of the speeches is pretty poor and amateurish. There is too much commentary and not enough of the speeches. Another cassette I had purchased before ""The Voice of Greatness"" ( which I believe you can find on Ebay in CD format) was much better."
217273,1,What A STUPID MOVIE ): (,"This movie is such a waste of your life. The plot is horrible, the characters are horrible, this MOVIE IS HORRIBLE! It makes no sense whatsoever and it's a sucky fairytale. I really can't understand who thought it was funny! Maybe if the plot would be way different, it might be okay, but the writers failed. Once again, I HATED IT!"
217275,1,Confessions of a teenage groupie,"I'm one of those people who loves bad movies. I mean i love BAD movies. Bad chick flicks i am totally in to. But this movie was by far the worst chick flick/kid's movie i've ver seen! The girl in it completely idolizes a rocker to the point that she LIES to her parents, and then MANIPULATES them with passive aggressive dramatics to go to a party in which he is completely wasted. Any parent would not let their kids near a potiental rapist of a drunken rock star. And in the end he returns her necklace and says ""you left it at my place"" and all of a sudden she is cool? What are the implications there??? Bad bad bad. Should be banned by parents everywhere for the terrible role model this character is! and if you're thinking that i'm some mom who is appaled think again, i'm a young girl who is too smart for this foddery that hollywood keeps pushing out like candy from a giant pez dispenser. Too sugary and bad for the brain."
217288,1,"Fan works,but....","This fan pushes the heat but makes too much wind noise,so I will return it. It is easier to install then the large tjernlund M-6."
217381,1,Handles tend to break on this namebrand,"My carrier was only 2 years old and would hold a cat that was 11 pounds. The handle broke off. In talking to my vet, he said that is quite common for this brand."
217406,1,Worthless,"By the time you take away the bibliographical information, this article is about a thousand words and contains little more than the dust jacket of one of her books. Don't waste your time or money with this one."
217436,1,Worst Customer Support Known to Man,"TrendNet quite possibly has set the bar for the worst technical support level ever. After reading reviews on several sites regarding this exact issue, I still decided to purchase the device thinking that my mid-range IT capability might stand a chance. Big mistake so far.So far, I have called TrendNet six times. Twice, they have told me they would call me back and never did. Once, I was on the phone with an technician that I could barely hear or understand. Once, they hung up on me after holding for 17 minutes. And most recently, I was told I would either have to hold for 30 minutes or get a call back.With the one call that was successful, I managed to get my Windows XP computer up and running. I then made the mistake of hanging up and trying to get my Windows Vista computer up and running.Still no luck, although I haven't yet tried calling the seventh time...No chance of buying a TrendNet of any kind in the future."
217437,1,"Cheap, if you can get it to work","I have three printers, one is incompatible (there is no list of compatible printers), one worked with the help of tech support and one I cannot get to work even with tech support. Since I bought it so I could hook all 3 to the same server, it does me no good. I am probably returning it."
217473,1,Don't be suckered into buying this video,"There's very little music in this video. I bought it trusting that it was the legendary concert, but it was mostly preliminary fluff. I watched it once, found out it wasn't what I thought I was getting, and in all likelihood I'll never watch it again."
217499,1,Hero Worship from a Distance,"Interesting story about one man's rise from the porch of poverty to the mansions of Beverly Hills. The story is well researched and well reported, but it seems that Geffen is a hero to the author, and there is a positive slant placed on almost all his actions. The actions of his rivals are seen almost always in a negative light.The choice for references was kind of strange to me, too, including long quotes from ""Queer in America.""This shows the work of a hero-worshipping author writing from afar. One who sat down with David Geffen and spent time and effort to interview and understand the man might come up with a much different, and much better, work."
217539,1,A hasty reading with little feeling,"I don't think lovers of either romantic Beehtoven or period Beethoven would like dohnanyi's reading, hwich is too fast to pause for lingering insights--or even much phrasing--and yet too heavy for a true period feeling. The Leonore #3 is exceptionally dull. But I should admit that in generl I find Dohnanyi dull. I bought this recording after hearing him conduct a lively, intense Beethoven 7th in Boston. Maybe you have to hear him live."
217557,1,"NICE FEATURES, POOR QUALITY","This phone has great features, caller ID, answering machine, ect. But the quality IS THE WORST. I am standing right next to the base and it will say, ""out of range"". Happens numerous times! Sound is clear at times, but at other times the sound will cut in and out. I have a better connection using my cellphone. I'm looking for another phone right now to replace this one. I just can't use it anymore!!"
217674,1,Disturbed Woman,"I could not finish this book since it was obvious that the main character Robyn needed some intense psychological therapy. I can understand her being hurt and deeply embarrassed by the cruel rejection she received at Clay's hands at the tender age of sixteen. However, it was just a kiss and some heavy petting - just one incident. To hang on to the hurt for twelve years is very unhealthy to say the least! And to have Robyn hang on to anger and hurt for almost the entire book is just plain boring and frustrating for the reader. Do yourself a favor and skip this book."
217707,1,Practically the worst Sasha & Digweed mix ever,"I've been listening to Sasha and Digweed for a very very long time, and I wanted this Renaissance mix collection after going to the nightclub in the U.K. because of the amazing experiences there. However, I was disturbed when I listened to this 3cd set. Infact it doesn't reflect on anything Sasha has done even before these mixes. I would never have bought this item had I known how horrible it is. While the mixing is good, the track selection is not what I expected, I learned my lesson..."
217789,1,Prefer old style brush,The new style hand held hair dryers are not good for short hair. Curly or wavy short hair was styled easier with the smaller brush with stiffer bristles. The 1200-1500 watt dryers worked the best. I wish I could find one of the older models.
217804,1,"Boring, slow, too many characters","i wanted to love this book - it was highly recommended and i thought it would be a great read like 'the invisible bridge' was...well this is way too slow, way too many characters...it was like reading a boring text book! i read A LOT of books - you can read my other reviews - so i think i know a good book when i read one - this one just isn't very good..."
217811,1,"Liked how it worked, but it broke after 6 months of ave. use","This hair dryer was used lightly each morning on a flat top hair cut. I have no complaints about how it worked, but it broke for no apparent reason about 6 months after I gave it to my husband as a gift. In the middle of the night, the plug started sparking and had to be removed from the outlet. Now the red reset button no longer clicks in. Seems like a safety issue to me, so I'm tossing it."
217838,1,Damaged Goods,"The book is something I've wanted to read for a long time. My husband has The DaVinci Code and Angels and Demon's, he wanted this book for his collection.The actual book, Holy Blood, Holy Grail was a present for my husband to add to his collection. Upon opening the book,we were both very disappointed because the print runs off the pages!!!! It isn't aligned correctly and there's no way to read it until you get further in the book and it seems to correct itself. So as for this particular purchase, I am very disappointed, especially when it was to be a present for my husband."
217913,1,Not up to the standards of the original,"While the original film was great and is one of my all-time favcorites, this sequel in no way comes up to the same standards of humor or storyline. In fact, it comes off as a blatant attempt to squeeze a few more dollars off of the original films followers. You don't need to believe me. Try renting it before you put down hard-earned cash on this wannabe..."
217929,1,Nor as recommended,"Bought this as a gift for my step mother, and when she used it on her face it did not remove the hair and actually scraped and cut her chin. It stated it was for facial hair removal, but left the hair and removed the skin. Would not recommend it to anyone."
218006,1,HEED THE WARNING!,"Can't add much to what's already been waxed, but do agree with the negative contingency. This book is hyperbole and more or less either a Prosthelytizing tool or a way to spread hatred and xenophobia. Well done Mr. Roth...or is that Rothchild!"
218037,1,Doesn't work at night,"Don't waste your money, work fine during the day but not at night. Unfortunatly I painted the unit black because its so obvious in the bright white so I am unable to return it...and no I didn't paint over the detection area!"
218045,1,Not waterproff,I had one it worked for a few months. It was very loud ended up placing the receiver outside on the porch. It was so loud we could hear it inside. It finaly went out after watter got in it. opened it up and discovered that even tho it has a seal the back where the screw mounting hole is not sealed. Worked for a few more months after drying it out and then quit. Do not place anywhere where it can rain on it. Suggest under a eve or inside some type of box. Its not rated for outdoor use.
218142,1,"Disc, scratched and won't play...","Got the discs pretty quickly but one of the discs of the two disc set was scratched and would not play. Got in touch with the people and they wanted me to send it back... with me paying for shiping. I paid for them to ship it to me, would have had to pay to ship it back... then shipping would have cost more than the dvd set! They listed it in excellent condition... probably will not buy from this vendor again, they are not real concerned with customer service! Be wary of how they label the condition of merchandise!!!!!!! Buyer Beware!"
218163,1,Questionable Review,"I'm looking for a study set for the MCSE Core exams. I thought I would check out the reviews for this Dummies series. But, I don't feel I can trust the review from Mr. Kropp since his review is dated 2/2000 stating how much this set helped him but, the series wasn't published according to this site until 5/2000 some 3 months later. I can't imagine how the 21 of 22 people found this helpful, unless they just needed a good laugh to brighten their day."
218233,1,Do not waste your money!,"I foolishly tried this donut maker and feel now I should have listened to everyone else! It again, is miniscule and can hardly hold a thing. Also it will not make an even donut at all! What is the point of a device that does not even work!"
218380,1,Aggrivated Dad,"Halfway through this movie I gave my kids the option of finishing the movie or getting a bedtime story... they opted for the bedtime story.I wouldn't surprised at all if I this strange movie causes a couple nights of nightmares... this one will go down in the ""WTF Hall of Fame"" right beside Coraline and Ponyo (although Ponyo was actually entertaining, primarily because of the horrible parenting exhibited in the movie).p.s. Amazon, please allow zero stars as an option."
218438,1,Good investment if you dont mind wasting money,Until SOE can make up there mine on where Galaxies there is little or no point in buying any of the guides unless you dont mind wasting the money. Lets not forget that SOE is supposely coming out with another game later this year. Would be interesting to see how long it takes before that gets screwed up.
218444,1,Did not like this,"When I got this product I was excited, then I tried it =P It says it is supposed to be liquid and mine is more like a gel. Then the label says ""great citrus flavor"" Mine tastes like a salt lick. Did not like the flavor or consistency. I would suggest trying something else."
218491,1,An Insurrection?!?,"The author calls the conservative movement an ""insurrection"", as if conservative ideas are revolutionary and something that needs to be put down. This book does not demand a serious discussion, just a straightforward dismissal. Liberal claptrap at its worst."
218532,1,Save your money!,"I am a beginning piano student, so I figured I could use a simple keyboard for practice. I paid the extra money for expedited shipping, as I needed it quickly for my class.Upon turning on the device, I was worried. There was a constant feedback noise that occurred. At first I thought it was just faulty speakers. However, when I put in headphones, the feedback continued. Playing any song with chords also sounds HORRIBLE, as the notes are all slightly out of tune. How an electric keyboard can be so badly out of tune is beyond me. I'm sending this product back, even though it will be a big hassle. I'm going to have to break down and buy a casio or yamaha...at least they're dependable. Do yourself a favor and invest a little more money for a better board. You'll be saving money in the end (shipping, return fees, price of product, etc.)."
218535,1,Disappointing,"Gergen's book is awash with name-dropping, inside baseball, and self-serving reminders of his proximity to power and his influence,,,although the evidence of whether any of the truly powerful accepted his advice or were influenced by him in any meaningful way is scanty. In my judgment, it has been his willingness to pander which has made him a ""bi-partisan"" figure, rather than true intellect or political savvy (a la Moynihan).I find the book to be the same as the man,,,narcissistic and full of self-promotion. There are much better views inside Washinton."
218569,1,lots of follow the bouncing cloud to inane lyrics,"this is my 22 month-old son's first Thomas video; from the cast list, i thought it would have Ringo singing, but it doesn't, instead english kids sing inane lyrics. the stories are cute, though each ends with slow panning of all the trains and their name labels. it's o.k., but i'll try to get an Alec Baldwin one, hear he's better. My son liked the trains, but wasn't enchanted by the tunes in the least."
218596,1,Perfect Game for Masochists,"There is a lot wrong with this game - awkward movement, imprecise aiming, idiotic AI, and lots of bugs. However the worse thing of all is that you get the feeling that you are being manipulated.It's like you have no control or real involvement in the game. You simply have to repeat a sequence of move, stop, kill, move, stop, wait... again and again until you hit on the exact sequence the programer predetermined. Making this worse, saves are very limited (3 on the normal level)so frustration quickly sets in.I have reached the 13th level and decided that this was just not my idea of having fun. Now I'm sorry I didn't uninstall it sooner. I could have spent that time playing a good game like Hitman 2, Thief II, SOF 2 or just about any other game."
218613,1,College Student not happy with Quinn's advice....,"Advice for college students as espoused by Jane Bryant Quinn couldn't be worse. How can Quinn say that CD's, Money Market Accounts and T-Bills are safe investments. With these ""investments"" you are guaranteed to lose money.I'm working two jobs to cover the mistakes (advice) offered by Quinn.And check out who places ad's in newsweek. Do I see a conflict of interest? Hmmmmmmm."
218863,1,Hated It. Over It.,"Very disappointed in the cd. It sounds NOTHING like the Beatles and the songs are ruined, in my humble opinion. Frustrated that I bought this."
218897,1,"Interesting, but not helpful","When my daughter suffered a deep depression, I read this book and found it spectacularly unhelpful. The author has done a study that revealed a bunch of interesting facts about how mental illness runs in families. But the underlying tone of parent-bashing that pervades this book will make you feel miserable if you're a parent with a child who has problems. Parents and so-called ""bad parenting"" do NOT cause every problem a young adult encounters in life.This book may be useful for adults whose parents had mental problems. And it may also be fine for siblings. But if your child has mental problems, I'd strongly advise turning elsewhere for help. You won't find it here."
218937,1,"Works well in optimal conditions, but...","If your setup is perfect - ie the transmitter to antenna distance is less than 3-4 ft, there are no interfering radio stations, and the volume on your audio out device (cd player, mp3 player) is at maximum - you get FM radio sound quality. However, as the distance from transmitter to antenna increases or if you're in a region with a lot of interference, static overwhelms this transmitters low output. A lot of times I needed to lower my car's antenna to hear anything at all. Additionally, the power button is not only easy to accidentally turn on, but there is no auto off feature and the ""on"" light is not bright enough to warn that the device is still on. On my last road trip the device was accidentally turned on and the batteries died. I won't be buying replacement batteries for this device."
219239,1,Pretend Pretend Pretend,I think the author gets lost in his own thoughts and trys to make storys of something that's not there.
219266,1,Mouse is good but there are problems,I bought this mouse about 2 months ago. It seemed to work fine but after a month and a half my wrist started hurting regularly so I switched back to my trackball. My wrist is fine now. Its very handy with the multiple programmable buttons but the ergonomic part if it doesnt work for me.
219273,1,Gushy,"When I picked up this book at the library, the librarian said to me, ""You've got the heaviest book in the library.""I replied, ""It may be heavy in weight, but it won't be heavy reading."" And indeed it was not. The only reason to look at this book is for the pictures, many of which I've not seen elsewhere.The text, however, is gush, gush, gush. The author repeats himself ad nauseum and quotes only people who haven't a single word to say against the great, the fabulous, the one and only legend! It gets tiresome. Yes, Judy Garland was a great talent, but how many times do we have to hear it?"
219345,1,I used to think this was a great romance novel.,"I decided to write a paper on Edward the Black Prince, since I like this book so much. After doing some research, I realized that the author had lifted her descriptions of the Battle of Crecy out of Thomas B. Costain's ""The Three Edwards."" I'm afraid I've lost all respect for her."
219389,1,Wasted money,"What has GL come to that they actual gave this disliked character the opportunity to write a book? GL is getting spooky. Picked up a trick from Passions, which worked well for the teen soap. Save your money for a better purchase."
219391,1,Don't buy it!,"Not worth your time or money. It WILL break, no doubt. Ours lasted 8 hours out of the box and only 4 smoothies. It has the same fault as every other review. Looks nice, but is not a good product."
219525,1,Would have been great had it worked,"Was so excited to get this product for my dad for Christmas, only to have him open it and find out one of the units did not work."
219550,1,Out of Control,"I thought I was going to see this jerk perform in Seattle. Guess again. He did a no-show. He's been kicked out of 4 hotels in 2 days, slapped store clerks, threatened bar patrons and owner, attacked people who asked to have their photo taken with him, and thrown in jail for his bad behavior with cops. Go away, stupid man. Just go away."
219561,1,Not A Good Read!,"I thought this book would have more depth. This book was shallow and there were too many changes and they were happening too fast and the book went through so many characters, it was ridiculous. After a while I didn't know who was who and I did not want to finish the book. Not a good book at all."
219698,1,junk,the range sucks ear piece comes off all the time i supperglued it on bottom line its junk but it comes in a nice case
219738,1,Should have kept the old one!,"I bought this battery for the phone in our bedroom. The cost was okay, delivery was acceptable, but the battery held a charge for only a couple of days.Amazon asked me to rate the transaction, which I did, which included sending my rating to the vendor. Amazon said I should hear from the vendor in a couple of days. NOT! It's been a week now and still no word from Amazon or the vendor. Now Amazon is asking me to write a review. Don't they read these things?Looks like I'm off to buy a new phone. Not through Amazon though.ER"
219877,1,Taiwan bearing,This idle pulley was purchased April 2011 and here we are Dec. 2012 and the Taiwanese bearing gave out. I checked with Toyota dealer and they want $30. Dealer is the way to go. I'm tired of made in China. Not worth installing. Toyota OEM that I removed has a snap ring to replce the bearing. Bearing is a 6301-2RS and costs $8 from a bearing supply store.
219944,1,No service,The Showstopper (Panasonic's version of the ReplayTV) is the best device I have bought in a very long time. Like the garage door opener it became indespensible almost immediately. Having become indespensible it is now inoperable. The sets require a telephone connection to operate. The telephone connection broke down about four weeks ago and a large number of us have not been able to get the connection since then. It is almost impossible to get through to customer service and when one does get through they cannot solve the problem. Hence we have a great toy that we cannot play with.
219960,1,Two Thumbs Down,"Like Halo 2?Want to play a game like Halo 2 for the Xbox 360, but with a worse plot, worse gameplay, and worse live options?Then Quake 4 is for you. There may be Quake fans, but I'm sorry, this shooter is simply a regurgation with nothing new nor unique to offer. It is not worth paying for new, rent this game first."
220009,1,I happened to have five CDs from this guy.,"I was dissappointed. It didn't live up to my expectations. Unstructured, beats are not well thought-out. Unmelodious, it severely lacks musical theories whatsoever. Chaos can be great but this is simply overdone.I like The Auteurs VS Mu-Ziq, probably because The Auteurs lent Mike some great tunes."
220039,1,Didn't work for me,"I had high hopes for this product, based on word-of-mouth and the other customer reviews, and I was severely disappointed. I tried this product twice as directed, and it didn't do anything more than a normal soak and scrub would do. I suggest you spend your $20 on a pedicure instead."
220078,1,Garmin C530 - Don't buy,"I purchased two Garmin C530 GPS's for my wife and I in Dec. '07 and was very disappointed with the product. I ended up returning both of them and am planning to purchase the next model up, the Garmin C550. The C530 came with outdated maps and would cost an additional $70 each to upgrade to the 2008 maps, however, if you purchase the C550, you can upgrade to the 2008 maps for FREE. The C530 also did not have alot of common businesses in it that have been around for years. For example, I entered Wal-Mart and it took me to a car dealerhip parking lot however, Wal-Mart was actually located about a mile away on the other side of the highway. I paid $200 for the C530 whereas I can get the C550 for around $310 but the extra $100 is worth it since you would have to upgrade the maps anyway or live with a questionable GPS."
220094,1,"Other than its quirkiness, this was awful!",MINOR SPOILER!!I really tried to like this movie. Original premise and all. Infidelity x 2 (pregnant waitress cheats on loser; doc cheats on decent person) + very old (but humorous) Andy Griffin does not equal a very good or very funny movie. Highly overrated.
220104,1,"whatever happened to ""show don't tell""","If I had produced this novel for a fiction class at my local community college, I would have been sent back to remedial fiction writing ""show don't tell.""We are told throughout this book - what to think, what the characters are thinking etc etc.The plot is plodding, the whole structure is pointless - the author makes one protagonist, then another, then another until the reader is confused about who to root for...why intriduce John as a central antagonist when he's invisible for most of the story.This book is not only badly written, it's boring."
220120,1,Flawed Revisionist Biography,"This book does give the most complete information yet available on Waffen SS panzer hero Jochen Peiper. Unfortunately, it is also a severely unbalanced account. No where is the version of the Malmedy massacre survivors given any credence. Peiper's witness of some of the first gassing experiments doesn't appear anywhere and his superior, Heinrich Himmler, is described as ""a misunderstood figure in history..."" Get the picture? SS expurgation. Yes, this is a good account of Peiper's career, but to get at least a little perspective, take a look at Richard Breitman's book on Himmler: Architect of Genocide. The references to Peiper will give you a clue about the side of Peiper not described... And for a balanced description of the massacre proper, see John Bauserman's detailed book on the incident. Mike Reynold's ""The Devil's Adjutant"" also strikes a better balance... Of course if you are interested in unvarnished Waffen SS hero worship with great pictures, look no further."
220130,1,bad.,"this cd player is D rated material. for one, the battery life is extremely short. about 5 hours on a pair of fresh duracell batteries. that ranks it to a B-. another thing is the sound. about average. thats a C+. then theirs the anti skip. it barely works. all in all, D."
220164,1,Poor Quality Control,"As a fan of racing sims, my Playseats classic/Logitech Driving Force Pro combo has seen a lot of use. So, when I wanted to upgrade, the obvious choice was a Playseats Evolution and Logitech G25 (a popular combo here, it seems). The Evolution seems to be designed for the G25 - everything fit together beautifully, with much less wobble than the classic, and Playseats helpfully includes bolts for the wheel and pedals to eliminate wobble there as well.However, I can't put the seat together, because someone at the factory broke off a drill bit while threading one of the holes - then decided to leave it there. I now have a nicely powder-coated fragment of drill bit that can't be removed. The seat is nothing but a pile of parts until I figure out how to get a replacement post. There's no phone number in the box, and their website lists contact info in the Netherlands.This seems like an improvement on its predecessor in every way - but thanks to poor quality control, I wouldn't know."
220167,1,Halper's collection,"The pictures are indeed magnificent, however, I must demur about the accompanying text which does not provide appropriate, tightly written or in some instances, historically accurate information."
220171,1,Does not shut off,"I programmed it as instructed. Then, I used the ""manual"" which allowed it to water. When I tried to go back to auto mode the unit could not turn off. I even reset and reprogrammed the thing. No matter what I tried from that point on it was on all the time. I sent it back."
220179,1,more water comes out of attachments then unit,Looked forward to this unit...now must return because it leaks terribly at the point of attachment..tightened over and over...tried new washers..still leaks....
220212,1,weid movie,"I only watch this movie because I love everything about the 70's, but this movie is not that good to me."
220238,1,Can I have my money back?,This game was just a reminder to me why I switched from Ridge Racer to Gran Turismo. The graphics are decent especially in the replay but thats it. The controls are horrible and if the announcer would show himself on the track I would gladly run over him. The game itself has 14 courses (that includes the reverse)and 18 different cars. But there are only 2 different views to choose from. When I bought this I was excited and thought it was the racing game that was going to hold me over till Gran Turismo 3 comes out but I was wrong.
220278,1,Book Shipped never received,"I ordered the book on August 24 and expected recieve date was by September 14. I still have not received the book on September 21 and requested that the seller send another book, which they would have been happy to, while using the standard USPS shipping again, but they would not ship Priority Mail with deliver confirmation so I can actually see the tracking information. Then do not expedite shipping, which usually receive books by the 3rd or forth day. The company claims to be shipping out of Deleware and I receive items from Deleware within two days. I would like to see the company ship with delivery confirmation but I don't think they will acutally do that. Needless to say, they refunded my money and orded directly through Amazon (no sellers involved) for a little extra cost with Super shipper Savings."
220321,1,Warning! Nostalgists Only,"Although watching Laserblast for me brings back a time when films like this were seen in abundance on Saturday afternoon television in the early eighties, and has a great, cheesy B-movie feel that you can only really get from films made in the seventies, it is a bad, bad movie. The acting is terrible, the plot makes little sense. (Who is the man in black and why doesnt he stop Billy when he gets the chance? Where are the people in the ""city"" scene at the end? Who are the guys in the plane?) but there is a bizzaro quality to it that will make it appealing to schlock lovers, mostly credited to the grunting green faced mutant-Billy. The DVD is in widescreen, but the trailer advertised on the box is nowhere to be found. The picture quality sadly does not improve much from the VHS version. If you remember seeing this way back when and look back at it fondly, by all means get it while its still available. Otherwise, look elsewhere."
220411,1,The sky is green,"Correct me if I'm wrong. I ordered what looks like grey/dark gray dishes. I got pink dishes. Absolutely unacceptable. I like natural looking environments when saving our rescued animals. OK, I lived in the San Francisco bay area and perhaps some areas and reptilians in that region might consider pink a natural color for their surroundings, but I don't. I am also not a little girl, but I have no problem whining like one when I don't get what I expect or see when I place an order. As far as the actual functionality and longevity of this product, it held up like Rock Hudson; looked good on screen, but was a fraud in reality."
220464,1,TERRBILY CLICHE and ANNOYING...,"Ok, I realize ""chick-lit"" isn't a very literary genre... and it can be difficult to produce fresh ideas--but this book was terrible. Not only did it rehash every idea ever produced in the genre, it was poorly written and the characters were unbelievably naive. The ""funny"" instances other reviews reference, are predictable and cliche. I picked this up for my book club, read to page 100, then snuck back to BN to return it with my receipt and buy some decent (heck, VERY good) chick-lit by Jennifer Weiner. Don't waste your time (or $$$) on this one!"
220473,1,Dissapointment!,"Good name, proffesional appearance, solid feel. The accolades end here.I have tried to toast white and brown packaged bread, white bakery loaves and home baked bread with the same result. Nothing gets brown, the bread dries out. In most situations the crusts at either end of the slice burn black and the center of the slice remains white. Two or four slice settings have no bearing on the result.Observation of the heating elements shows very uneven heating, some elements not even red.Cuisinart TAN-4 Tandem 4-Slice Toaster"
220543,1,"HAD TO RETURN TWO, THIRD IS OK","I have to tell you the disappointment with this product is great. I am on my third one. the four rubber stoppers you have to put in to raise the notebook do not stay in place, The cord which goes in to your USB port is very fragile, and the replacement USB port has cracked off on two of these.Cooling element works, if you do not have the rubber stoppers falling out all the time. I recommend buying a cooler that has rise built in. I would never recommend this to anyone ."
220605,1,USELESS!!!! No stars,"Bought this last Christmas for my daughter, I may as well have just thrown the $100 out the window. It never worked, and the support is nonexistent. By time the gift was given and figured out it would never work it was too late to return it. Don't waste your money."
220629,1,"I did like ""Necessary Evil"" though","Whatever scene this is, that scene needs to cuts its tracks in half. I like repetitive music, but only when I can put it in the background. Repetition and sandpaper don't mix and fall into the background."
220653,1,Disappointed,"The review of the Thomastik Belcanto Gold Cello A string indicated that it had a warm tone. This was not my experience. In fact, it was slow to respond, squeaky and quite tin like. Very disappointed for a string that cost 30% more than other A strings"
220674,1,"odd, all right, but not very awesome","With scarcely a page devoted to each topic (he devotes little more than a page to the Loch Ness monster!), this book is way too sketchy to be of interest to anyone who has more than a passing interest in strange phenomena. Like all of Berlitz's books on mysterious phenomena, adequate documentation is lacking-- in this case, virtually nil. This book is all over the map, ranging from the gee-whiz Ripley's Believe It or Not!-type trivia to genuine mysteries to stuff that is just plain nonsensical (""Bikini"" and ""Tomb of Ice"" for example). Pass this by and read something by some of the more careful researchers in the field; Charles Fort, Jerome Clark, and Colin Wilson, for example, are just three writers in the ""believer"" camp who are infinitely better at dealing with this type of material."
220675,1,The Worst DVD Do not waste your Money,"I purchased this piece of cr@$% on amazon video, I was looking for something more National Geographic style, something that could educate me about mychild's week by week development. so far I have seen way better material around and for free... if you would like to drugged yourself to death this is a good one but if you are a good parent and want to nurture your child with love and compassion during their 1st and most important day of your lives DO NOT BUY THIS there are way much better material around starting with the business of being born, birth as we know it... etcthis video highly advocates drugs and c sections.... these babies so far seem unhealthy and unrealistic situations... these ""Ob GYN"" doctors need way updated information...-Natural birth/waterbirth parentI wish I could give this DVD 0 stars"
220750,1,Awful,I read this while on vacation. Repeative concepts throughout without any drama. Truthfully it was just plain awful. Was hoping for so much more.
220765,1,An interesting but rambling tale,"Ms. Bird provides an interesting and, at times, exciting account of her sea adventures. The unexplained nautical terms and somewhat convoluted story structure made this reader rush forward to finish the book and hopefully find the ""punch-line."" I was disappointed."
220766,1,What Kind of a joke is this?,"I bought this because I am a big fan of MCR. I love their music, and when I read this, I gave up halfawy. Is the author on crack or something?Seriously now, everything about MCR in this book is wrong. THEY ARE NOT BRITISH. Gerard is spelled ""Jerard"" throughout the book. IT also says that ""Jerard"" went to an art school when he was young.The author also tries to be correct, but not done.BUY AT YOUR OWN PERIL!And I know this is off topic"
220775,1,Pretty pointless,"Romantic comedies aren't the greatest of movies to start off with, but this one is even worse than most. It's not clear why anybody ever produced it. It seems really sloppily done. The acting is horrible - even Jennifer Love Hewitt, who's not half bad. The filming screams ""made-for-TV"". The script and plot seem like they were phoned in by a teenage writer. There's no character or humor. The only part that made me laughed was the postcard from the African orphan. Still, I gave this movie 2 instead of 1 stars because we get to see Jennifer Love Hewitt in bikinis and she still looks good."
220790,1,What was that?,I listened to CD and was very disappointed! The singer screams to hit high notes - very squeaky and unpleasant voice. CD production is horrible. The girl sounds off pitch on her first song? Could not they fix it?
220814,1,I knew this guy,"He was totally horrible. I cannot believe he has another book out that people pay good money for. I'd never buy another one. This guy has many personal problems. IMHO, this man is mentally ill. His advice is perverted."
220832,1,Stay away from this one!,"This router is about the worst I have owned. Will not hold the signal. Went to belkins website and downloaded the new firmware were it also had a bulletin that said if you experience frequent dropped signals you are supposed to change the channel. Did that, still drops signal. Called Belkin and they had me switch everything back to factory settings. When I said your website says that this is the problem I was told ""You not need to worry sir"" Ya great. Well its going out to the garage now to see if my hammer will fix it. Wish I had that $100+ back."
220919,1,You grow girl,This book wasn't what I thought it would be...I don't dislike it but I didn't get anything out of it....Thank you for mailing right away
220995,1,You can pass on this one.,"I'm sorry, but I simply cannot share in the praise that others are heaping on this book. The story started out fairly well, but it dropped off the deep end after the first quarter of the book. I just couldn't follow it; I forced myself to read another 50 pages before I gave up & put it away. Sorry, but I was hoping for more."
221006,1,I don't think so...,"I was required to read this book for a class on the history of the modern Middle East. I thought this would be one of the more interesting textbooks that I have to read this semester. I was wrong; this thing is painful.I've been informed by a friend of mine from the area that it probably loses something in the transition from Arabic to English, but to me the whole thing is overwritten, self centered and features the ""heroine"" blaming her problems largely on society. Of course she does go into detail about that society, providing the historical value, but still. In places it reads like a manuscript rejected from Harlequin Romance Novels.If you really want a picture of life in the Middle East. read ""Struggle and Survival in the Modern Middle East"" by Edmund Burke. Gives a better pictue."
221036,1,Horrible movie,"I like Hockey, do not like this movie. I really wasn't sure what to expect when I rented this, but I found myself bored during parts of it and really this entire movie is about fighting. I understand the title is ""Goon"" and that's the premise of the movie, but literally every scene is of blood splattering on the ice or the players sitting down talking. There are a few great scenes but the majority of this movie is just guys beating each other up with no real plot."
221042,1,To much Dangle for a Dongle,"This Dongle dangles tooooo much. Too short for the back of the computer and way to long for the front, my pc's on the floor and i had to tap the unit to the side of the machine to keep it out of the way. And since the product i ordered to use this with, didn't work. I can't talk about if it worked at all. Just felt like a cheap product."
221140,1,not so good,"Although the shipping is quick. However, I think the teapot is lighter than they described. It stated that the shipping weight is 13 pounds. So I think maybe the teapot will be about 9 or 10 pounds. Actually it is much lighter than I imaged. The pot is about 4 or 5 pounds. I think it is so bad to lie to customers. If I knew the truth, I would not buy it because a teapot, a trivet and two cups are totally about 35 dollars in the Farmers supermarket."
221178,1,I AM NOT ON BOARD,"I seem to be the one person missing the boat on YEARS OF METEORS. I found that for the most part the songs were forgettable and monotone. Now realizing that all, I guess all, the other reviewers love this CD, maybe its me. I just find so many other singers head and shoulders above Laura Viers, at least on this CD."
221265,1,Proud American,"This book is silly! I decided to read this only to see, as Jim Rohn says how horrible a person can become. My wife and I are proud Americans who happen to be black. Amazingly, my wife graduated #1 with a 4.0/4.0 scale from a school that was 98% white. She has a Math degree from an Ivy League University! I have a college degree and finished with honors. Now, based on Dukes ""Theories,"" this shouldn't be! The minority class in this country is too big and powerful for any movement of this kind to be successful. WAKE UP AND STOP DREAMING."
221320,1,This book runs a fine line between really bad & okay ref.,"I was extremely disapointed after viewing this book. The illustrations are so bad, it's hard to look past it to see the clothing design. I wish the author would have hired an experienced fashion illustrator to compose the drawings in a sketching style of the time...1960's. I do have to give the author credit for the layout of the design progression per year. The book did contain many design references/illustrations for accessores. This is rare, as there are not many accessory design referece books.last words; Okay reference for the 60's era of clothing & accessory design resource, but horrific illustration!!!m donat fashion designer"
221349,1,This must be a generic version...,"Usually the price of the replacement brushes are much more expensive at the store. This deal (on-line) was too good to be true. I'm already on my second brush head within one week. The small hole below the brush head pinches my lip everytime it makes contact with it and the attachement doesn't stay connected to the toothbrush. Furthermore, the first brush head that I used only last around 4 days. It literally broke up into little pieces in my mouth. Buy them at the store..."
221365,1,"""Made in China""","I bought this machine as a gift for my wife, without knowing that it is ""Made in China."" The first time we tried to use it, the power light came on but the engine refused to move. I will keep you updated about ""the return procedure."" However, I advice everyoane who wants to buy something to find out first where the object was manufactured. IF THE PRODUCT WAS MADE IN CHINA DON'T BUY IT!"
221420,1,"Might be ok, but the first part is confusing. Would not buy",This book starts off by talking about organizer vs file browser. But it doesn't tell you how to get to the organizer - that WORKS. And it talks about setting up watch folders to get pictures into the organizer. That does not work either. Maybe the author should try to use the software before writing about it.
221508,1,Not worth it at all - save your time and money,"I am a big Grisham fan, but this book was a tremendous dissappointment, it seems that the idea of the scam (which I think was based on a true story) was the only believable aspect of the book. It is well written (as his novel usually are) but weak in main plot and characters. Bad ending. It seems that the pressure of writting another bestseller pushed the author too far this time. I understand that his next novel will not have a single lawyer in it, and, although it sad to see Grisham part ways with the subject he has been so strong at, I hope it is better than this dissappointing book."
221535,1,It's not worth H/C price. Buy it on paperback.,"Thoroughly disappointed. John wrote a movie script, not a novel. Where is the climax? Who's the good guy and who's the bad guy? John took the easy way out with ending and there wasn't any intrigue as to what could and should have been to Brethren. Why take care of Trevor in one way and deliver different fate to the Brethren? John is losing his touch and this is the last H/C of his I bought."
221541,1,waste of time,"If you really want to waste your time, go ahead. No plot, no ""characters"", no ending is a pretty good summarization of this misuse of paper. I think Grisham needed some money, and so he sat down one afternoon and just wrote about any old thing which he could think of."
221564,1,A pretty interesting book.....,"This was a pretty interesting book once you got to the recipes. There is a lot of information at the beginning of the book that I just looked at because I was looking for recipes I could use. If you are looking for a book that will explain what carb's are, you might like it. This is a full size paperback book."

221594,1,too complicated for beginner knitters,This book is too advanced for beginners and should be an intermediate to advanced book.
221632,1,4094 blender,"This blender has a rubber gomet that turns the wheel which turns the blade. If you get a heavy piece of ice or something hard dropped into the blender it shears the rubber gomet in the motor. Thus, the whold blender is ruined. Sunbeam provides no support on their website on how they will honor the warranty. Neither does amazon.com tell you anything about the warranty on this item."
221695,1,The Republic Chapterplays,"It was a good thing that I did not pay the full $39 for this book as I would have felt terribly cheated. As it was, this little paperback book cost me $28 and was only worth about $8. The quality of the pictures in the book were terrible. The information provided within the book was nothing spectacular either. I was thoroughly disappointed. Once again I am reminded to touch and see the things I want before I purchase them."
221703,1,Great Quality... For a While,"I bought this controller a while ago when I bought Halo 2 for the PC. It worked great.After that game was over and done with it sat unused until I decided to buy Cabela's Dangerous Hunts for the PC. It worked great until a few weeks ago. The left analog stick began to ""stick"" in certain positions. Now, it just refuses to work.This is great for your occasional PC gamer, but if you intend to use it for long periods of time then I'd suggest buying something else."
221708,1,I was surprised that the book had wrong tribal identification.,"I was surprised the book had wrong tribal identification for Les James.Les James is not a Southern Sierra Miwok, but a Chuchansi and Casson Yokut. Yokuts are not Miwoks.The same with some of the other people."
221744,1,Can see all the best parts in the trailer,"After seeing the trailer I was expecting a very funny movie about an eccentric vampire family. All the funniest moments can be seen in the trailer and when seen in the context of the actual movie they weren't even that funny. I'm not sure what this movie was striving to be, comedy, horror, social documentary, or what; it just meandered from genre to genre. To give it some credit there were some pretty funny concepts to this movie and I wish the writers capitalized on those more. Then it would have been a pretty damn good movie. But, I feel they over thought it and over reached making it a complicated snooze fest instead."
221756,1,It is simply a fake. Never worked in the car and burnt out in the home after one use. Fake Rip Off,The Sony batter doesn't fit into the cradle. The car adapter doesn't work. The home plug in burnt out within 4 hours of use.
221854,1,Don't confuse this with the High Gloss version,"Apparently, HP has stopped making the High Gloss version of the 4x6"" Premium Plus photo paper. I bought this once by mistake and found the colors to be really awful, as if I had used really cheap paper. Buy their ""Premium"" paper instead. It's almost as good as the ""Premium Plus"" used to be."
221917,1,Very disappointed,"Perhaps I was expecting too much,but this ended up being a horrible mess. I wanted to coat a pair of hand held weights that had lost their rubber coating. Holding one end of the dumbbell, I dipped and lifted. It looked beautiful. Then it started all running back down. I quickly turned it right side up, but it had left a very pointed piece on the top where the dumbbell was flat. THEN, it started sliding back down, all over the table. It was AWFUL! I threw everything away.P.S. I had not thinned it down with anything...I used it directly from the can."
221927,1,You Cant Replace The Battery,"Ive been looking into MP3 players, as i am preparing to purchase one. In my opinion, this is the best one out there, but dont plan on keeping it forever. The battery is built into the thing, so when it dies, you have to trash the unit, and buy another one. I read that Creative says the average battery lasts 2 years or so. Buy the way, the IPOD is built the same way, also making it a disposable player."
221983,1,Barking up the wrong tree,"I hate to be negative, but this effort is not nearly as satisfying as ""Alphabet Soup"". They have used all of the same ingredients, but it just does not work.The movie begins with advertisements for other home videos, which our children do not need to be subjected. (Personal note: Please let us have a moment of peace and allow us to watch a movie without ads!)While ""Alphabet Soup"" is very entertaining for adults and children, this movie is rather slow. The redundant, ad-lib dialogue makes you feel like there was not enough legitimate content in the script. In addition, each rhyme should be read in its entirety while the dogs are performing, rather than the constant interruptions with the narrator's boring commentary. Nursery rhymes are meant to flow like music, but you can't feel the rhythm when commentary is added throughout each nursery rhyme."
221991,1,6 year old boy,Talk about a huge disappointment!! My son was so excited to get it from Santa that he had to put batteries in it immediately only to be disappointed that it did not work at all as shown on tv! It lasted all of 2 seconds and was put back in the box and returned to the store! My advice and my sons...don't buy it!
221992,1,Spectra-Garbage,"Do NOT buy this toy. An adult cannot even achieve success with this hard to manipulate toy. You can use a plastic stylus to move the mini-lightbulbs to the color of choice, but it doesn't work well. Or, you can use your hand in an attempt to achieve the same aim. This method irritates the skin in no time (possibly for a child needing more sensory feedback, this feature might be of value). Even when one tries to draw a row of colors all the same, the slightest pressure in the wrong direction renders your efforts futile. The packaging dishonestyly beats the drum for the simplicity of this toy. After playing with it, most people are disappointed in what they can produce. If I could get my money back for this toy, I would."
221998,1,Do Not Buy This Big Disappointment,"I have never written a review before but felt compelled to write one regarding this toy. Santa brought this for my 5 year old and not even I can get it to work properly had I not thrown out all the packaging this toy would certainly be going back to the store, instead it will probably get thrown in the back of a closet. You cannot draw any picture on it and really all it does is change color and the pegs don't move as easily as advertised, the pen that comes with it is worthless and the pegs actually hurt your fingers after a few minutes of play. They give you stencils to go with it which are also worthless, half of ours, a week after Christmas are already ripped. Just don't waste your money on this like I did."
222089,1,Weird,"I rather generously gave this CD 2 stars due to the talents of the best in the genre. My argument is that the sountrack is somewhat between pseudo-authentic and slick Nashville. I do not believe that the majority of the soundtrack was consistent with the tenor of the film. There is a plethora of music available that is good old-timey or slick made to sell. This seemed like a hodgepodge thrown together because some people believe that a soundtrack must accompany a movie. I realize that tracks containing cylinder recordings of authentic British Isles music would be a hard sell. I think the CD should be entitled ""Contemporary Adaptations of Original Folksongs"". At least that would be more honest. After viewing the film, my expectations of the CD were not realized."
222124,1,Unless you are good at Audio Cassette Learning Don't bother,"If you need the personal interaction to learn a language, this is not for you. The tape pretty much speaks a useful phrase and then translates it and you are expected to repeat, remember and use it. Rather difficult to recreate the sounds of native speakers as a beginner."
222152,1,ABBA Piano music could be better,"This music book was a disappointment. The ""easy piano"" is too easy so the harmonies of ABBA do not come through."
222165,1,Pretty & Pretty Stupid,"I'd never read any of the other ""Party Girl..."" books when I got a copy of this. After buying this, I won't buy any of the others. It has no real content, just lots of mindless dribble. I thought it would at least be funny, but the train of thought trails off constantly. It's too stupid to be funny. The only thing I really liked was the sparkly silver cover. This is a book that you look at in the bookstore and leave there."
222302,1,One Size Does NOT Fit All,"I love Dr. Sear's books, but this baby sling is much too large! I am a slightly small framed 5'5"" woman. My 6'5"" husband wears this sling just fine. But, for a sling to work for YOU, it MUST FIT properly! I finally bought a sling that fit me when my son was over 1 year old. I couldn't believe what a difference it made and felt so sad that I hadn't tried a different sling sooner. My son loves sitting in it on my hip and brings it to me whenever I am working in the kitchen. Try the Rosado sling or any other brand that comes in sizes and buy the size that fits your body! You will really be able to enjoy the baby wearing experience that Dr. Sears recommends so highly!"
222321,1,Not what I expected!,I must've read it wrong or something but this is not the movie I was expecting. :(
222327,1,I Prefer the Original,"This book is good, and sure, you should buy it to complete your collection - but only after you buy the ORIGINAL WORK upon which this is based: The Dragon Legacy, by Nicholas de Vere. Gardner ripped off his entire theory from his colleague De Vere, but left out so many important details, trying to soften up the truth for a mass audience.If you want to find out what it really means to be of the Dragon bloodline - if you want to find out who the Nephilim or fallen angels really were, or the true nature of ""Starfire"" sex magic rituals like those performed by Jesus and Mary Magdalen - if you want to learn what the true relationship is between the Grail and Satan - read the original book by Nicholas de Vere. Gardner boils everything down to space aliens, and mangles the true history of the Dragons trying to please the Wiccan and New Age crowd that buys his books."
222328,1,To clear matters up...,"A previous viewer wrote that Jesus did not come from the bloodline of David..Oh, what ignorance! MARY was a descendant of David's, not Joseph! This book just goes to show what garbage people will write with enough time on thier hands. Remember, #1 selling book of all time,written for more than 100 languages, THE BIBLE! I don't think the author takes that into consideration, unless he thinks the majority of this planet is that naive."
222337,1,wrong product,"I bought this product as an adaptor to connect to my wireless modem. It does not work because my modem is not blue tooth compatible (its an AT&T modem). Needless to say, I am VERY disappointed after spending $32 on this product and not getting the result i was hoping for. Maybe its ""operator error"", but personally, I don't think so!"
222463,1,War of the Worlds meets Independence Day meets another lame movie,"I rented this movie based on the trailer alone, so I didn't really know what it was about. Had I known it was just going to be another alien invasion flick, I would have skipped it, because they're all the same story:1. Life on Earth is awesome.2. Aliens attack.3. Life sucks, and people die.4. All hope is lost.5. A discovery is made.6. The discovery helps a hero destroy the aliens.7. Earth is saved.8. Everyone loves the hero.9. Life on Earth is awesome again.I had been looking forward to this movie for the last two months, and after 1 hour, I dozed off to sleep. I woke up and watched another 15 minutes of it before forwarding it through the rest to see if there were any surprises. There weren't. I could have stayed asleep, and I wouldn't have missed anything.It's nice to see a patriotic USMC movie come out the week before July 4th. It's just too bad it had to be so boring."
222568,1,Replay factor zero,For metallica fans it may be a source of a whole lot of new information but in the end when you have seen it once maybe twice there is nothing to go back to it for. Its basically a set of interviews with short clips of the five singles in the background.
222610,1,Not a thing,"I am sorry, but I didn't experience anything with this diet formula. I was just as hungry, and there was no change in my energy level. I gave it chance and took almost the whole bottle before I came to the conclusion I had wasted my money."
222620,1,Pathetic biased guide to covering up one's failures,Sophomoric pleading of control freak doctor who believes that trying to perform is proof enough for protecting doctors from negligence. Incredible lack of accountability and responsibility when tragic errors occur that have lasting consequences for the patient.The stress is from failing to address the difference between what you meant to accomplish and what becomes known as an adverse event.
222635,1,Pura decepción,"""Lee Matilde Asensi"", ese era el consejo. ""Se equipara a los mejores novelistas históricos anglosajones, y es española y escribe en español!"" Y allí fui yo y compré una de sus novelas más exitosas, ""El Último Catón"" y comencé a leer y sí, estaba muy bien y es española y escribe en español!. Pero no todo podía ser así de lineal y efectivo. La novela comienza bien, con una buena trama y unos personajes creíbles y muy interesantes. A medida que pasan los capítulos todo comienza a ser inverosímil y los personajes comienzan a desdibujarse y hacen metamórfosis. De ser una novela histórica interesante, se transforma en una novela par adolescentes, tipo Indiana Jones! Al final ya se hace insostenible y culmina la novela de forma pueril e increíble. Lo que empecé con grandes expectativas, culminé pidiendo que terminara. Pura decepción."
222643,1,Kingdom Farts,"Give me a break. I admit that PS2 has some solid hits, but this is by far not one of them. Since when do Final Fantasy and disney go together? This game is pretty dumb, not worth the money. There are some solid RPG's. But this is kids play. I beat this game in one day and returned it. It is by far the worst game. But I'll tell you some great games.1. Ratchet and clank, the best game you can imagine.2. Oni is pretty good too, if you're into shooterts and fighting combat.3. Simpsons road rage. Totally worth it. Hilarious and good.4. Rayman arena. An awesome character in an awesome party game.5. The Sims should be solid.But that's not all. And first, Ratchet and Clank, buy RIGHT AWAY. It's not A game. It's THE game."
222711,1,Boring and Cliched.,"Full of cliches from any generic Harlequin romance. The lovemaking scene when they first make love is straight out of any old Harlequin romance. Ofcourse he thinks she is so pretty and she thinks he is not handsome (while her old lover is) but his face is just so mesmerizing. Now how many times have we read that?! In one word, boring and cliched. Why is this book such a rage? Why is this author such a rage? Why don't they have a provision to give 0 stars to a book at this website?! I won't make the mistake of picking up any more of Sparks' books."
222748,1,Serious issues with Vista or I have a lemon,This keyboard has got its freakout on all the time. Many times it will lock up on a key I hit and start to scroll the letters across the the screen as I franticly hit escape and then every other key as I to try and get the cursor to halt.The keyboard also has had trouble connecting to my desktop many times and after multiple attempts at hitting the connect buttons on the blue tooth key ands the keyboard it will finally latch on.I have never had any problems with other keyboards before and this one is a major disappointment that maybe hitting eBay soon.I would look elsewhere
222761,1,I don't understand,"I just don't understand. These guys are capable of so much and they write their worst album since, well, ever. It's very cheesy at times. Cheesy is a very bad thing. And why can't we leep into the 2000's on production. How about some crisp drums and crunchy guitars. And how about less keyboards. Anyone who calls this the best Iron Maiden ever obviously never listened to Number Of The Beast or Powerslave. The only song that saves it is track no. 9. Sorry I can't remember the name of track 9, because I left the cd out in my car where it will sit until I sell it at the used cd store. Don't waste your money!"
222783,1,eh,"if you want to read about jesus, pick up your bible. not this book.this book is but a cluttered mess."
222814,1,Wrong Part Title,"I searched for a ""Braun 3000 Series InterFace/InterFace Excel"", and got three results so bought lowest priced one.I received a ""Braun System 1-2-3 3000"" instead of what I thought I was ordering. It now is obvious that YoungZebra had the wrong name on their product window. So be careful when ordering from YoungZebra, check them out thoroughly.Braun 3000 Series InterFace/Interface Excel Replacement Pack"
222835,1,a piece of useless junk,The reason this is so cheap is that it's just junk. There are no stickers included and the old pages won't even let you apply stickers from a newer source. should have been trashed rather than sold.
222836,1,Not an official release,"Lest anyone think that Paul is ripping you off, this is not an official McCartney release. Don't waste your money."
222859,1,Half Good,"Currently I have had this brush about a month. After 6 uses the handle broke off from the green part to the end where the rope goes through the handle which cut the handle to about 1/2 it's size. I purchased this for it's ""Far reaching"" length. I can no longer use it for what I purchased this for. I drilled a hole in what was left of the handle & glued the brush head to make it more secure to the handle & am using it for much shorter chores. I would not recommend Earth Therapeautics Erogo Form Far Reaching Brush."
222889,1,shedding problem,"When I purchased this dog bed I expected it to be thin and otherwise a little cheap, but I didn''t expect the shedding from the bed to be worse than the shedding from the dog! I hope the shedding is temporary!"
222900,1,"Just Cardboard Boxes, Basically","I thought this was going to be a kind of shelving system, but really it's just a set of boxes with pull-out drawers that can be stacked on top of each other. The ""steel plus"" in the product's name refers to one measly little square of metal that you stick into the box for limited support. Assembly of the boxes is not quite clear until you struggle with a box or two to figure out what's supposed to be done. Overall, when it comes to file storage, even if you're in a temporary location and need portability, I would not recommend this as an option."
222957,1,The MLB Got This One Right,"A foul-mouthed, salacious, well-cast, occasionally entertaining, slice-of-life look at some Chicago Cub (Bruins) fans. Although the ensemble acting is effective and the movie has some satisfying moments, the merits don't outweigh the liabilities for me. I would love to be a bleacher bum at Wrigley Field, but if I sat anywhere near this set of fans, it would diminish my enjoyment. These are the Bleacher Barbarians, and the movie's treatment of a mentally unbalanced fan and his menacing of a player is disturbing. I would love to watch a game with the two old guys in the scoreboard, but they are only in the film for a few moments. In short, the movie doesn't have enough to redeem its winking at antisocial behavior, including compulsive gambling, and the MLB was wise to withhold its approval. I would love to watch the Cubs, but the Bruins not so much."
223018,1,Doesn't last long,I'm not usually a big sweater in general and when I used this deodorant I think it made me sweat! I found I had to keep applying every 2 hours or else I would start to have body odor. I wouldn't recommend this product unless nothing else works for you. The smell is nice!
223151,1,DO NOT BUY THIS UNIT,"I got this because I wanted to convert VHS tapes to DVD. I also wanted to record shows on DVD RW. The first thing is, this machine only takes DVD-R. The first unit I had, the VHS part did not work, out of the box. Returned it for another one. I discovered the DVD part gave me 90% of the time, disc errors. I switched brands of DVD. No Good. I returned the unit and got credit towards a Sony. Great machine and it plays any DVD -+R/RW, etc.Toshiba makes great televisions, but stay away from there DVD recorders."
223169,1,My review of The Hallelujah Side,"I did not find the book to be a good read. References to the Assembly of God Church were too negative and demeaning. Nothing ""happy"" at all about the book!"
223194,1,"Good, but flawed","The novel held my interest, although it was wordy and derivative. It repeats an egregious error;The claim that a Lithuanian would have attacked Rembrandt's Danae in Leningrad because of religious zealotry is ridiculous--and ignorant.The date the book gives for the attack is June 15, 1985. The man himself said it was ""out of nationalist protest"" (160).Indeed, June 15th is the day of the first greatest mass deportations of Lithuanians, by Soviets, to Siberia in 1941, a day of mourning (and resistance to oppression) for all Lithuanians to this day.The date is key; the rest, including repeating the theory of zealotry, is ignorant. The man was protesting the cruelty of the USSR by attacking a ""national treasure""; he wouldn't, of course, have slashed religious art."

223230,1,Brother can you spare an insert,"I have been a true fan of Law and Order for years. But as the seasons go on sale the product and packaging gets Cheaper and chintzier. Come on--give me an insert please. You want more money and give me less product. And then it seems that the distributors don't know how to count either. I've got season 14--than ten plus 3--where's 13?People let's cut the silliness --if they can't give you a synopsis, much less a season categorically and better packaging we aren't purchasing!!There ought to be a law in order!!!"
223262,1,Too Academic for the masses,"I read this guys condensed version and it was much more reader friendly. This one is much too wordy and academic. No photos all lousy hand drawing. Too many technical terms for different rocks and strata levels, etc. I wouldn't recommend it for the average conspiracy theorist reader. Quite boring and repeats the same info over and over within the same chapter. Trying to fill out the number of pages i guess. Could have been written more concisly and to the point."
223279,1,Not worth the money,"I purchased this device thinking that since it was made by a reputable company, it had to be good. The concept of the gun & hopper is great except that the concept here does not work. I've mixed various materials of different viscosities and they all fail to gravitate to the lower portion of the hopper into the gun. The spring-loaded piston like lid is designed to 'push' the material into the gun, only it doesn't do the job either. The various orfices are difficult to load into the gun as well. On a positive note, the best feature on this gun is the air control is located on the gun handle as opposed to being on the air compressor. I'm getting rid of my 13602 and going back to the conventional gravity-fed hopper."
223318,1,Crashed in less than one year.,"Hard drives are hard drives. Most users won't notice any difference in them except for two factors:1. If they run out of space, they'll wish they'd bought a larger one.2. If it fails.I had no complaints about the size of this drive. While 160G is considered to be more modest these days, I was fine with the capacity. I have some photos, some music, and a large number of text files. I bought this drive to replace the drive of an older desktop that we occasionally use for web-browsing, storing photos and email.What bothers me is that the drive, used very lightly, crashed in less than one year of installation. I would expect better from a brand name drive like Western Digital. I'll try to post later when I check the warranty of the drive and how Western Digital handles it."
223366,1,Not impressed,"These didn't help with static and after only a few weeks of use, one of the balls ripped open. Although I liked the idea of going chemical free -dryer balls didn't work for me."
223378,1,Don't read this book!!!,"Please for the sake of Christian spirituality, do not read this book! It compromises everything that is Christian and minimizes the entire doctrine of God creating human beings male and female."
223384,1,Poor book,I bought this book for used new. And it was very worn out. I had to tape the corners because it was falling off.
223496,1,KEYCHAIN BROKE,"I bought the flash drive for school work and it seemed to work great. However, after ONLY two weeks the keychain broke and I lost the drive, my keys still have the ring by the drive broke off. The keychain idea was a good concept, but poor quality!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
223559,1,Poor quality,"My daughter was not at all interested. Is it poorly made. ""I"" have difficulty tying the laces and the snaps were plastic. I was very dissapointed so I returned it."
223565,1,REBA NEEDED TO WAIT A WHILE LONGER....,If this is what a new CD from Reba sounds like then I can tell you it aint no different than any of her last 4 releases. Its all the same. Only the lyrics are different!! She should have waited a little longer and come back with something that had a little more substance to it. None of the songs on this are even worth mentioning.
223568,1,Disappointed,"This kit only allows for clamping on round tube handlebars and does not fit Honda Goldwings. After paying a healthy price for a ""Universal"" Mounting Kit, I find that I have to have parts machined to make it work.This is NOT a ""Universal"" Mounting Kit."
223585,1,Bleak with too many story tails,"I kept waiting for this book to turn around. It never does. Watts introduces many interesting ideas that on their own would've been interesting (deepwater breathing, gel brains, etc) but fails to focus and develop the plot effectively. It would've been better to focus and develop one idea to it's fullest rather than bouncing around and trying to force all of these neat ideas into one book.Beyond that, it's a bleak book without hope."
223651,1,Not The Best,"I bought this thick book (over 1000 pages) for $90AU and expected that by the time I finish reading it I would know Javascript from Start to Finish with no hinderences. I think this book would be very good for people that already know Javascript moderately because its reference is very extensice and good, but for teaching the language I don't think it qualifies as a good read. It is not layed out very well for newbies, and what about errors, even though there is a webpage at www.dannyg.com to download and read, it is very annoying to have to look at the error sheet to see if the example given doesn't have any errors to confuse the situation any more. For $90 I don't think it is the best Javascript book available on the market."
223658,1,crapsandwhich,"If you like your rock music boring and uninspired, then by all means, get ThreeDaysGrace, the worst, stupidest album ever released next to ""a hangover you don't deserve"" by Bowling for soup. Best listened to after a wild night of singing along with Avril Lavine and Jessica simpson at your local karaoke bar. FOr those of you looking for REAL talent, get something by Seether or Strata instead."
223662,1,not as expected,"A bit too pop, expected more. A few of the songs work well but many of the others are too routine."
223677,1,Denon not Demon,"I bought this item in thinking that it was a link directly to a ""Demon"", unfortunately I mis-read the product as it clearly says ""Denon"". I am very disappointed as I have been wanting to get a direct link to my inner demon for some time now. My search continues however, the $400 I paid for the used version was well worth the money to at least try it. I kept the device, however, incase they decide to change the name to ""Demon"" as it should work then.So if you are looking to re-connect with your inner Demon, this cable is not for you."
223801,1,20% lighter :),"This pair of jeans weighs only 22oz in W31-L34 more than 20% lighter than the one I bought two years ago in a retail store (28oz). I wonder whether Levi's is selling a different product through online channels or whether they have decreased the quality of the material for all 501s. 501 is sold as 501 ""original"", unfortunate that it is not true any more. Levi's, please bring our 501 Original back."
223808,1,Don't Waste Money on a Blu-Ray,"If you like slasher movies, you will enjoy this one. The only problem here is that the quality of the print is so poor that any extra money spent on a Blu-Ray disc is wasted. If you want to add this movie to your collection, buy the DVD because the Blu-Ray is not going to get you any better quality (certainly not 1080P quality)."
223882,1,bball review,"Here's the deal with this bball system...The instructions are bad, flat out inaccurate in some points. My rim ended up being 3 inches short of 10 feet and the backboard is tilted backwards at the top. Not particularly steady when the ball hits the rim and board; the rim is dead and the whole thing shakes. I would not recommend this to a friend. Sorry Spaulding, but that's the truth..."
223970,1,Low flow toilet flush handle by G,It's probably worth less than a dollar to manufacture. Takes forever for the low flush to work because you have to stand there and hold the handle down for the water to fill the toilet bowl. The high flush works okay. It's rather flimsy and I've had to caution little kids not to press on it too hard. The handle does not work with all toilet seats. The handle sticks too far out so I have to move the toilet tank cover to allow for the room and then it causes more condensation in the bathroom. I paid around $26.00 plus shipping I think. No I don't think it is worth it and would not recommend it unless the company gave you specs for the size of your toilet.
224078,1,Bad batch of plastic,"I have bought Monster Cutters that held up pretty well, but this particular batch is brittle and worthless. My yard is not very big, but I used one whole package of these cutters to trim it just once! With a good batch it usually takes three or four pairs of cutters to do the whole yard. I complained to the seller and he wrote back that I was the first complaint he had received - I think he lied. PS I have read that the red ones are better than the purple ones - I should not have bought the purple ones. Better luck next time!"
224090,1,For the home alone person.,"Not my thing!!! Way to much cleanse and flushing for normal people. This might work for someone that was brought up to not trust the intellegance of a good specialist. Some of these things will do more harm than good, and to start with fixing your ONLY liver, is not the place to be in."
224108,1,Boring and pompously written,"I couldn't get past the first 20 pages. I flipped through the rest and the same pompous writing style persisted. The author writes in eloquent words and sentences that make me want to fall asleep. His flowerly language and verbosity is a sign of a poor writer who wants to seem talented. Total waste of time and money. Amazon, could I have a refund?"
224133,1,Cheap,Spend the extra 15 bucks and get yourself a better pair. These are pretty cheap looking. They look like they came out of the dollar store. I still have em on but one of them I had to cut cause it was too long. When I cut it I just screwed up the whole item. Really try not to use them cause they don't look to trusting.
224156,1,Waste of Money,"I used this card reader twice. I will never use it again! I would give it 0 or negative stars if I could!!The first time I used it, I was able to download my pictures and they appeared fine, but I didn't download all of my pictures from my card. I put the card back in my camera and the camera wanted to format it or shut off. I put the card back in the card reader and it didn't recognize the card. I lost those pictures.The second time I used it I put the card in the reader and downloaded two copies of my pictures (just in case). Half of those pictures are messed up, either the bottom portion of the picture is missing, or the bottom portion of the picture is skewed off center while the rest of the picture is fine. Almost immediatly after downloading the pictures my computer became unstable and I had to restart. Again when I put the card in the camera it wanted to reformat it.Don't waste your money and time with this junk!"
224173,1,"Good content, impossible to read","Just the sort of book I was looking for, so I was sorely disappointed by the teeny-tiny graphics and lack of cue-ball path-lines. The solids and stripes are designated by number only, there are no stripes on the stripes. And you can barely read the numbers. Diagrams need to be enlarged.If you have time to copy every page to a larger size and draw the paths, then go for it. Probably a great book. As is, it's only usable if you are a prisoner with plenty of time left on your sentence and a powerful magnifying glass."
224199,1,ridiculously bad,"This is one of the poorest guidebooks on Brazil, if not the worst. And I've used all of them. For starters, it is horribly out of date. But the major problem with this book is that it focuses on random road-side towns while barely paying attention to popular and happening spots (AKA places where people are actually interested in going). It is as if the writers took at trip around, wrote about a few obscure places where they stayed and disregarded the rest.The best guidebooks on Brazil right now are the newish Let's Go (although they tend to only focus on major towns) and the new Lonely Planet."
224217,1,post script on veg powder,"On the Barry Farm Foods website, instead of listing ""yeast extract"" as on the package, they list ""autolyzed yeast"", a toxic substance that is in the same family as MSG."
224304,1,My Review,"You really have to be interested in the food, culture, and design. When I saw this book at the Air & Space museum in Washington D.C. I thought there was more info about the interior designs of aircraft. However, it was mostly about the food and clothing style throughout the years. I would only reccomed this book to a person who is intersted in these topics."
224314,1,Plot Twists A Little Too Twisted,"First of all I cannot stand Jennifer Aniston in any way,shape or form! But wanting to watch something in this day of retread movie plots I gave it a go.I have to say Anniston was a better actress than I thought, because from the moment she meets Clive Owen it looks like she couldn't care less about him and therefore I guessed where the plot was going immediately and what her agenda really was.Why would such a cash strapped guy with a sick kid even THINK about doing what he did? I found that hard to believe.At least Aniston won't be around much longer.She's on the downhill slide to 40 and not movie star pretty at all. In fact in the hotel where the big assault happens, did anyone notice as she is sitting on the bed how much like DUSTIN HOFFMAN she is beginning to look like?Thank Brad for your fame, girl, otherwise you're just a faded TV hack."
224316,1,Horrible software - I returned it,Terribly written software. The installation process was a nightmare. After installing the application I tried to install 9 CDs worth of maps. After each disc the installer crashed so I had to restart the application repeatedly. It got stuck on on disc an was never able to complete the installation.With the maps I did install I found the navigation and software interface to be SLOW and not intuitive. It was a waste of money and I have returned the software to the seller.
224323,1,Have you ever been in love with someone you hardly knew?,"Well, someone that claims to love Boingo hardly seems to know them at all. This book has many glaring omitions and no actual information about the band members (Excluding Danny Elfman). This reads like a student term paper (I'd give it a ""C""), full of quotes and footnotes and very little original information about the band's politics, fighting and creative process. There were a lot of guys in this outfit besides Elfman that I would have liked to learn more about. The author spends page after page giving his humble opinion about EVERY song on every album. BORING! How about why Kerry Hatch left the band, why did John Hernandez leave and return, etc. This could have been much, much more interesting."
224332,1,very disappointed,"tried to find this cd for a long time, after ordering & receiving it...I put cd on to play and high road to china song came on first, but after that it seemed to not have all the music I thought it should, not even close...very disappointed....not amazon's fault but the sellers."
224499,1,"A comment on ""Comment""","I found Les McCann's ""Comment"" to be a rather weak release from the very talented pianist.""Comment"" is decent soul jazz and it features a lot of singing on the tracks. However, this one plays out more like a bad R&B; album, rather than a jazz album.Also, it's a little too slow for my taste. So if you're looking for something along the lines of his fantastic ""Swiss Movement"" album and other hard-driving soul-jazz, this isn't it.""Comment"" has not aged nicely over the years."
224604,1,Would have been nice IF IT SUPPORTED DVD-VCR COMBO UNITS.,I read through the reviews and was very enthusiastic so I bought this remote. I began programming it and was very pleased with the results until I tried to get the code for my almost-new Samsung DVD-VCR combo unit. The manual had no codes at all for that category! I contacted Sony's support via Web Chat and they DO NOT support DVD-VCR combo units. BEWARE if you are purchasing this and have this need (or might in the future). It blows my mind why they don't support these. This is going back to the store and I'll switch back to the One For All brand that I have had in the past. I liked the layout and buttons a bit better on the Sony but it doesn't matter at this point. Good luck!
224646,1,Wears out in less tha six months.,"Well, maybe you are the type of person who buys a bag for every occasion and you don't need your bag to last very long, but I am not that wealthy. I wear a back pack purse everyday to work or play and I need it to last at least six months. This bag is wearing out. The fabric on the bottom corners is frayed and you can now see the white liner showing through. Also the zippers seldom stay closed at the bottom of the bag. The bottom of the zippers usually rip open on their own about an inch from the bottom. There is an inner lining that keeps things from falling out, but it is annoying. It is light weight which is great, but I am not happy that it is wearing out so quickly."
224676,1,Don't waste your money!,"I had to return this because it doesn't work! The infomercial makes it seem like the steam it produces can clean everything with ease. I wanted to get the corners of my oven clean, where the self-cleaning cycle doesn't reach-and I set this product up, waited for the steam and proceeded to spray the area. Needless to say not only didn't it clean it, but it started spitting out hot water and made a mess. Don't waste your time!"
224709,1,Overblown silliness,"This is truly one of the worst books ever written, a huge disappointment to anyone reading about U.S. domestic politics in the 20th century. The topic had great promise, but readers would be much better served picking up Christopher Matthews` book on Kennedy and Nixon or Robert Caro`s multi-volume biography of LBJ. Morrow`s prose is overwrought with far too much armchair psychologizing. He also has a dreadfully annoying, almost juvenile habit of using motion pictures to illustrate the points he wishes to make. It is a very unsuccessful literary device. Who at the publishers let this project see the light of day?"
224718,1,offensive,"I couldn't stand watching more than 2 minutes of this movie. It is so obvious they are trying to celebrate the religion of Atheism. Don't bother setting up a Winter Tree, or hanging Winter Lights. And wishing people a Merry Winter. It is so pathetic. You can be Atheist, but don't insult me by taking my sacred Holiday that is supposed to celebrate the Son of God's birth, and try to morph it into something generic. Christmas has already been commercialized and stolen to celebrate some fat man in a red suit. This movie is celebrating Godlessness."
224727,1,not worth a dime,I bought 3 of these for my special education classroom. They broke almost immediately. I'd call it a piece o cr**.
224736,1,Worst Little Tour of Whorehouse,"Roxie Lucas saves this review from having a single star. Her performance was the shining star in a rather lifeless, dusty, and uninspired revival of the original production which thankfully avoided Broadway. Compare with the rollicking original recording and you will easily notice the lack of life, spirit and vibrancy in the new recording. The addition of A Friend to Me added nothing to the score but sluggish redundancy."
224829,1,garbage,I ordered this Boston 75 with this cover and song list. Recieved it. It is inaudable. It cannot be listened to as it cannot be heard. Others from this manufacturer in Japan were average to good in sound quality. Recently ordered the other Boston 75 with a different cover and song list. Hope this is truly a different cd and has been properly represented. If not it will be shipped back as not what I ordered.
224836,1,"Stiff, undersized, uncomfortable","I have relatively small hands. Buying a large sized glove has never failed me before. But these really are stiff, undersized, and uncomfortable. Just buy the next size up from what you usually order."
224842,1,What is point?,"When I started to read this book, I was enjoying it. I thought it was new view on life and art. As soon as I moved forward, I realize than nothing new was introduced, except book appearance (very inconvenient by the way). If you want to learn drawing and see world around you differently, better to take book ""The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain"" by Betty Edwards (brilliant book). If you looking for philosophy or meditation, I think you will find better books around. Also original pictures in the book do not impress.Update: Just want to add. Author wow to draw without looking at drawing. He provide as an example his pictures with a lot of details and good enough quality. He just forgot to mention to naive readers that he spent last 20 - 30 years in professional drawing. So he!!! can draw automatically without looking at the paper, because he was doing it for most of his life."
224892,1,If you like descriptions of vegetables...,"...then hey, this book was written just for you! Otherwise... it's just too thick with description; it's a struggle just to finish some of the pages. While I realize that ""finding foodstuffs"" could be a real dilemma in the Delta Quadrant, the show never gives this a second thought; so, a novel that's based entirely around ""Away Team searches for edible plants"" is not going to be very compelling. No, nothing stands out as ""out-of-character,"" but at the same time, just about anybody could say these lines the same way--even a non-Trek character. Please do *not* make this your first VOY novel, and if you already have, please do *not* rate the whole series of novels based on this one! There are many better ones out there!"
224931,1,Dense but not a good reference,I ordered this book several years ago based partly on the recommendations here. I'm not sure where they went. I have tried to use this book as a reference mainly for Word and Excel and found it not helpful. I know the basics but sometimes I need a little help. There's lots of dense but selective details in the book. However try looking up basic but little used tasks such as strike through and it's not there.
224935,1,Youngstown Gloves,They do not keep my hands warm at all at temps under 32 degrees. Very unhappy with this product. Plus they run a little small on the size.
224955,1,Ultimately disappointing,"I had high hopes when I began reading this book. But by the end of the book, all I could think was why? Why would this man continue to torture himself and his son, day after day, for what? Nothing. I found no hope in this book, nor even a point to it. The imagery of the world after the ""unexplained"" catastrophic event, was vivid. That was the only thing I took away from this ultimately disappointing read."
224962,1,Just Bad,"The book was redundant, repetitious, mundane, boring...get the idea? The first 275 pages were the same events over and over, then the ending did NOT add to the story. Sorry I took the time to read it."
225099,1,Not worth the trees killed to produce it.,"I ordered this book based on other Amazon readers' comments, and was horrified and disgusted at my choice. The suggested readings are very nice, since the author did not write any of them. The rest of the text is poorly written, silly psycho-babble. I doubt anyone wants their wedding benediction prayer to end with ""depart with joy in your heart and happiness in your feet"". I did get plenty of hearty laughs out of the suggested ceremonies, but unfortunately, no constructive assistance."
225113,1,"Groan, groan, groan....","I'm mostly all for the cavity-causing sweet movies with those same plots (boy meets girl, boy and girl fave a problem, boy and girl get together). I've seen dozens of movies like this: She's All That, Loser, 10 Things I Hate About You... but somehow this ranks as a low. The whole movie I knew what the ending was going to be (not surprising) and prayed that it wouldn't be it. This movie wasn't even that cute. But there were good parts, like the foam party scene, and every scene with Jason Biggs (I'm sooooo not a fan, but even though I've seen a lot of his movies, this is his best). I'd recomend this movie if you REALLY love this type or you just want a movie and don't care which."
225224,1,"GOOD FOOTAGE, SHAME ABOUT THE SCRIPT","This is a complete waste of money if you want to use it for teaching purposes, as I had wanted to. Some of the footage of remote parts of beautiful Iran is breathtaking, but even the narrator's attractive voice cannot compensate for such an appallingly ill-informed and self-indulgent script. Beware! This is not the work of a serious scholar or mystic of any kind, but a self-indulgent director who takes herself far too seriously. If you can find a way of removing the narration, and simply using the footage, then that could be useful. Otherwise it would be far too damaging for serious college-level students, and is more likely to make them cringe or laugh than learn. Very poor, apart from the camera work, which is wasted on the script. They should make a new version with most of the same footage but a new and intelligent script."
225237,1,Made by 'Ho' Medics,"The name says it all...don't let the pictures above of ""happy endings"" fool you. the massager isn't THAT good...."
225243,1,Horrible instructions,"This is a very solid, seemingly well-built keyboard tray. My problem is that the instructions that came with it were horrible. I was able to attach it to our desk without a problem (as other reviewers suggest, nice template, etc.). That's not the problem. Unless I am missing something, we CANNOT move the tray down or tilt it as it is supposed to. There is a lever that seems like it should go up and down and back and forth but it doesn't move, and I'm afraid I'm going to break it. There are no instructions detailing this. There seems to be a diagram on the arm, but it is underneath the rolling mechanism and I can't read it without moving it down, so I'm stuck. Called customer service and they referred me to Waterloo (the manufacturer). I got voicemail there. Hoping for a call back, but I'm not super optimistic."
225291,1,"Better title would be ""The Jewish Bible for *Christian* children""","Written from a christian perpective. Several references to Jesus, and the ""Old testament"" not only in the introduction - examples - the patriarchs live 1500 years before Jesus. There is a painting depicting Jesus being circumcised (as stated in the caption. Other inaccuracies such as the hebrew letters ""yod, hei vav, hei"" is usually written as ""Yahweh"" - um, only Jehovahs wittnesses people! One story suggests a sacrifice of a young woman which would never have been permitted. (Judges 11) Torah commentary teaches she lived in seculsion (the sacrafice being she never married or had children)I gave this 2 stars because most of the book is OK, but Jewish parents should be aware of these flaws. Would be an OK choice for a Christian child, though the take on Judges 11 is disturbing."
225295,1,Doesn't work right!,"I bought this for my 92 Accord EX. The removing adaptor and the receiving cup were too long to fit in the C-frame and I couldn't press the old ball joint out. After fiddling around with it for 20 minutes, I gave up and ended up putting a socket over the ball joint and hammering it out. Then I couldn't use the tool to install a new ball joint, because the 38355 receiving cup is not included in this set, or the 7249 ball joint set. So I ended up hammering the new ball joint in too. Very disappointed I spent a lot of money on these tools and I couldn't even use them when I needed them. I'm keeping the 7249 set, because it will (hopefully) work with many other vehicles and will probably be useful to me in the future. But I'm not sure what I'm going to do with this 7996 set."
225437,1,5 star reviews of this book are painful to read,"I am always so sad to see yet another person write about how ""amazing"" this book is. How disappointing that Stephanie Meyer is making so much money off a book that is hardly worthy of it's preteen/middle aged women audience. I have many friends and family who love this book, so I am not insulting the readers, but rather the culture that has led us to believe this is anything close to decent writing. I'm all for reading ""fluff"". Just not poorly-written fluff with one-dimensional characters who are horrible role models and project unrealistic ideals about love."
225456,1,UGH,"I really hate romance, but my mother insisted on buying me a copy. She found it on sale and knew I loved vampires. I could hardly make it through this book. I think I'll pick up my copy of Dracula and wash the bad taste out of my mouth."
225497,1,for young impressionable minds?,"I read this book about 3 years ago when there was so much hype about it and of course, I wanted to find out for myself what the book was about. What a major disappointment it was and I am sure everything after is as well. It is this kind of dumbing-down garbage which is always available (usually built up in a display) and highly promoted in every American airport bookstore for sure. Out of 498 pages of shallow drama, on page 4 there was a statement about an erratic hair brained mother to fend for herself. This statement offered a sliver of hope until I kept reading and found no more mention of the mother. How is it possible for a book like this to have over 5000 reviews of which over 3500 of them are 5 stars! I would love to talk to anybody who believes this book is worth 5 stars. I would have no problems burning this book in a fire in order to keep warm or to use with other worthless books as a stand or a table of sorts."
225498,1,Worst book ever,"This book Twilight is so BORING!! It is slow, lame characters, boring plot. I could not finish the book that's how boring it is."
225538,1,short story for eight dollars?,"I read this whole ""book"" in less than an hour. I skipped the twenty pages of porn which Laurell has learned does make her Lots of Money. The short story was actually good with the old Anita showing up, but...then...abruptly, she wakes up in a hospital room and we and she hear what happened after she was knocked out! What? An earlier reviewer said it best, this would have made a good first two chapters. But maybe ""Danse Macabre"" will not be any better. I had it pre-ordered but now I'll just wait for the library. I can't trust Laurell Hamilton to write a good story anymore. Sex education? Yes, but not this one. Sigh, where is Edward when we need him?"
225579,1,Dont buy it.,"I lost two headsets with this case. The first was while walking in the city, the headset fell out of the unsecured top of the case somewhere in a four block area never to be seen again. The second time I lost the case and all as there is only a flimsy clip on the back instead of a loop and it fell right off of my belt while walking to lunch. On top of it all the case doesn't adequately fit the 510 in the first place. The headset is too long and pokes out of the bottom distorting the bottom of the case or is pushed out over the small lip at the top of the case."
225691,1,Hurts my toes!,This product canot be worn by someone with planter facitis as it hurts your toes. I was looking forward to receiving and trying this sock only to discover it was a waste of money
225699,1,I've seen worse.,"Considering the genre of this film, and the line-up of releases I've seen over the past few months, this could have been alot worse. That being said, it could have been alot better too. A few tense moments, acting a little better than average for this kind of film(which really isn't saying all that much), and an ugly CG clotted ending that was torture to watch. Rent it if you really want to see it, but its not worth buying."
225798,1,"It's a flashlight, not a laser!!!","Bought this little puppy recently, just looking for a little ""cat diversion"" item. Unfortunately, it is not a laser pointer, it is actually a flashlight that emits a blueish light. Not a bad little flashlight, nice for the night stand or keychain - and properly advertised wouldn't be a bad deal. But, it is NOT a laser pointer."
225809,1,No captions or subtitles for the hearing impaired!,"We were really looking forward to watching this. But, then, we realized that there was no way to get subtitles or captions for my hearing-impaired wife. Finally simply deleted it and wasted my money - no refund from Amazon, of course. I suggest that Amazon specifically list whether a video is for the hearing impaired. We'll not make that mistake again."
225818,1,Ultra - waste of time the Movie is great!!,It is amazing how awful this Ultraviolet copy is it is my third movie and I just hate it never been able to watch a single movie and I work for one of the biggest IT centers and have a vast experience on the field. PLEASE!!!! I beg you Amazon stop making copies with this ultraviolet or at least give an option to buy without it
225851,1,Not reliable!,"Terrible, these instruments are not reliable, I would definitely recommend not to use a wrist meter, but meter arm monitor."
225929,1,I expect better,"Vittles Vault 40-pound stackable? How is it stackable? First, there are no fittings for it to be stackable. When the top container is slightly emptied, it slides around on the bottom container. There should be fittings (feet, indentations to fit into, so that it does not move off one another?!!)that make this stackable! Secondly, when the top container is full, the bottom container lid can not screw on because the weight misshapes the opening! One has to lighten the weight, in order for the opening to go back into shape. The purpose of a 40 lb. container is to hold an abundance of dog food. Third, the lid does not screw on easily and quick, each and every time. There are times that one has to try and try again to get the lid to fit in and start screwing. I am not sending it back because I found shelving that holds the containers seperately. But believe me, I will watch for a better way of storing my dogs' food.Stackable Vittles Vault 40#"
225943,1,Running with the Demon is The Stand Lite,"Brooks has made an industry out of borrowing others: first Tolkien and now Stephen King. Basically, Demon is The Stand Lite (it's got the Walking Man demon and unwilling knightly hero and manipulated villains and the threat of a post-apocalyptic age of darkness and pseudo-religious overtones). The writing is competent, the characters are cardboard (except for the well-crafted Gran), the story is flat and predictable. Good v evil is sooooo very tired. The teenagers are laughable. Brooks, how many teenagers do you know who talk like these stiffs? Give it a pass."
225988,1,Harder to use than a butter knife,"I found this on sale and was very excited to see a mandoline in my price range. Well, you get what you pay for!There is no manual. The blades are blunt. The knob is hard to turn. The plastic looks cheap. The finger guard only work on certain shaped objects. It just doesn't cut anything. Worse than useless."
226016,1,Fighting Scenes-AWESOME Rest-BORING,"The scenes of the action in the pacific are awesome. Some of them I almost couldn't believe except I knew they had gone to great lengths for accuracy. What those guys went through was pure hell. I do wish they would have spent more time on the battle scenes on Guadalcanal. They seemed to fly through that part. Their defeat there was one of the biggest turning points of the war for the Japanese, and lasted much longer than shown in the movie.For the rest of the movie, I fast forwarded after 3/4 of the first DVD. Trying to watch those scenes that weren't actual fighting or showing something that caught my attention was brutal. To me they were mostly boring, with a few light comedic scenes thrown in.2/10's of this show was AWESOME! with the fighting scenes.2/10's of this show was alright with comic scenes and 1 or 2 of the telling points in the movie.6/10's of the show was absolutely boring...and I mean boring too tears."
226041,1,I Want Some,"...I want some (or all) of my money back. I can't possibly fathom why Ian Svenonious has been compared to James Brown or Prince. His weak, strangeled vocals are exceedingly irritating- he has no lung power. He sounds like an anemic white guy doing a bad impersonation (karyoke-style) of someone with soul. Make-up is one of a slew of bands expirementing with juxtaposing several seemingly disparate music styles ( in their case psychedelic pop/gospel/R&B- others have claimed that there is punk in there too but I can't find it) for kitsch value. For some bands it works (like early Blues Explosion) but this Make-up doesn't blend and you're left with base face. They are a novelty group that is far too contrived and image concerned to even be amusing. In other words, hipsters will most likely lap this up but be forewarned if you are not just looking for the next buzzword band."
226058,1,Not the picture,"What i got was not what was shown in the picture, i got one cheap plastic case that holds all 6 dvds on the same cheap ring"
226109,1,waiste of time,"If I wanted to know what a file folder or a paperclip was for this would be a very useful book. Defining them in length was a way to add words to this book. Having people go out and spend money on file folders and unnecessary billboards when we live in an age of technology seems silly.The whole concept of being a vertical thinker is limiting. It is a narrow minded approach to allow lemmings to feel good about what they are doing. It places too much emphasis on thinking in one direction rather that stopping evaluating and seeing the entire picture of a situation.The only thing that was useful were three lines. Do it,Delegate it, or dump it. And this is only if you want to cast off things that could very well prove useful elsewhere. Sure simplifying to the extreme reduces a persons stress, because they will never take on anything that could actually make them grow as a person.As a history book for how things were done in the past. Go for it."
226115,1,Crappy book,"This book really sucked. I found it boring and uninformative. The whole thing was an exercise in futility. It was an extremely repetitive, uninteresting book.Should have been more interesting."
226144,1,Undependable,"This seemed like a great monitor at first. Suddenly after only five months or so of use (5-6 hours per day) I noticed a blurry spot in the screen which began to grow. Adjustments, degaussing, and testing on other computers didn't solve the problem. My old Acer monitor of 5 years is now clearer than the NEC.Regardless of the warranty, repair means shipping off the monitor which causes costly downtime for a small business owner. I lose enough money in the downtime to buy half a dozen or more of these monitors. I expect hardware to last longer than a few months, especially NEC's since it's often costlier than other brands."
226149,1,This is not up to Sony's Standards,"This cd plaer skips all the time even with esp2 on. it just totally sucks when it becomes continuous with the skipping. Skip skip skip skip skip, that's all it does, even with brand new cd's."
226178,1,Eats Batteries,The unit itself fell off the wall. Pulling the on/off string usually brought down the unit. I fastened it up with screws. The concept was still good. I put in the batteries. 24 Hours later the unit failed to turn on. I put in new batteries and those batteries were dead in 24 hours. Then I realized that what we have is not a light but a battery=eater. Do not buy this idea without a money back guarantee.
226215,1,Blind alley bugs - ruin game experience.,"I just have to get this off my chest.... I've never played a game with so many blind alley bugs, ones that you continue playing for an hour before you realise your in a bug that you can't get out of and have to go to a previous save... hoping you don't trigger the same bug!@?*& This is unacceptable, I'm sort of ok with a bug that craches my system, but this, I'm actually going to stop playing in the middle of this game (haven't done that sience I made the mistake of buying MOO3)."
226218,1,sucks. this is completely waste of money.,"sucks. graphics,story line and game system are all sucks. this is completely waste of money. also have a lot of bug. i reccomend if you want to get stressed instead of enjoying star wars world."
226230,1,Holy Bible,This Bible is pleasant but not very interesting if you are looking for a bible with footnotes. I was disappointed with it.
226240,1,POORLY MADE,"THIS IS A POORLY MADE, VIDEO WHICH BY NO STRETCH OF THE IMAGINATIONIS WORTH WHAT WAS CHARGED FOR IT. IT SHOULD BE ON THE WALMART SHELF IN THE 499 BIN. A TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY AND NOW A DUST COLLECTOR."
226362,1,It broke after a couple of months,It broke at the coupling between vacuum and the beater head.It worked ok before that - nice and light - but i had to clean out the filter about every 20 min with a shop vac because it plugged with dust and caused the motor to overheat.I want one with a bag and a little better built.
226371,1,a piece of junk,This had really really bad suction the food got stuck in it. I was also very loud. I sent it back.
226431,1,Not Up to Par,"The quality of the picture is much less than any DVD I've seen before. Indeed, dust and scratches appear throughout both DVDs. I'm a big fan of both of these movies, but the DVDs just do not do them justice both in terms of video and sound quality."
226527,1,VIC KNOWS ABOUT HISTORY,ELISABETH I AND THOMAS JEFFERSON THE GREATEST LEADERS IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD???? IF SPERANDEO KNOWS ABOUT TRADING THE SAME WAY HE THINKS HE KNOWS ABOUT HISTORY THEN WE ARE BETTER OFF GAMBLING IN LAS VEGAS!!!
226529,1,Very disappointing,"Having recently finished the Cooper novel, I looked forward with anticipation to watching this film version of ""The Last of the Mohicans."" What a mistake that was, because this movie is lacking in several areas. Foremost, for me, was the fact that the film strayed very far away from the plot and storyline of the original. Not only were the fates of the characters changed dramatically, but a completely new character was created for this film. Needless to say, this was an unwanted surprise.As if that weren't bad enough, the quality of the film itself was rather poor, both audio and video. Spoken words were often either garbled or missing entirely. The film sometimes was spliced or ""shook"" for a few seconds. Taken altogether, it made for an unenjoyable viewing experience.I give this two stars, only because it is so old (1932). But I cannot recommend it."
226603,1,THE WHINING WHITEBOY AND THE DOWN SYNDROME DOZEN RETURNZ,"Hey you haterz quit makin fun of my favorite group, u dont know nothing about thiz hardcore hip-hop album......JUST KIDDING....Datz whut idiot fanz be sayin, but they dont know nothing bout real hip-hop or gangsta rap.

226617,1,Not the best,"This is a fun and interesting game, but I prefer action, and a game where you can get really interactive doing things. This you just take care of a dog, whic s great but will wear off. Hope this helps."
226646,1,Not so beautiful,"I don't write reviews often as really music is personal taste but here we have a difficult situation: I love everything Talib has done up to this album but this is an album of covers and stuff that seems rushed or an attempt to change for changes sake. If you like his ""Quality"" album chances are you won't like this as it is really commercial and now sounds like everything else done by lesser artists in an attempt to what? go mainstream? real rap is not mainstream, any real roots-down hip-hop/rap fan knows this and sometimes a little bit of commerciality brings in the bucks to up the production quality but this is jaded stuff by Talib, with the now token ""get a kid to vocal over a track"" effect, we know he can do better and as a true fan I was dissapointed, by all means buy it but listen to it first!!!!!"
226850,1,A whole lot of nothing,"What a waste of money! I bought it because of ""Fly Away"", hoping there'd be some other good songs. i was very wrong. Don't get me wrong, I still liked ""Fly Away"", but the other songs were terrible"
226852,1,Lenny's no Jimi Hendrix (but he desperately wants to be!),"Let's face it--African-Americans doing rock music is a extremely small group. You had Jimi Hendrix, Living Colour, King's X (lead singer Doug Pinnick), and let's throw in Prince for the heck of it. As for Lenny Kravitz, he tries very hard to be a cross between Hendrix and Prince, but his songwriting skills (or lack thereof) slam the door in his face every time. Little digital tweakings aside, ""5"" sounds remarkably similar to his previous albums--one or two really catchy songs (here being ""Fly Away,"" which will stick in your head like glue and is already the soundtrack on an car commercial) and the rest tired-sounding psychedelia. But he plays an instrument--he's a decent if uninspired guitarist--and writes his own songs, and those skills are getting rarer by the day in the current pop music world. Eventually he will come out with a greatest hits album--wait until then to spend money on a Lenny Kravitz album if you're a casual fan."
226870,1,The Worst!!!,"This book was such an incredible disappointment - If I could rate it lower than one star I would.I bought this as a Christmas gift for my mother. She was nothing less than polite, but I - having forced myself to finish it - could do nothing more than apologize for having wasted her time and my own. This was drivel at it's worst. It was boring and predictable with dreary characters and a storyline that evaporated after the first few pages. If you're looking for a preachy, smaltzy ""lesson"" story from the not quite religious right this may interest you. If you're looking for a good book with interesting characters and a plot, do yourself a favor and pick something else."
226882,1,These work but become uncomfortable to wear quickly,I bought these to wear while gardening because I have landscaping rocks I need to kneel down on. They do a great job at protecting my knees but if I don't tighten the straps tightly enough the pads come down eventually. If I do tighten them enough to prevent the pads from coming down the straps bunch up and pinch the back of my leg uncomfortably. I think these would have been better if they had had larger straps at the back. I'm going to use a foam kneeler from now on instead.
226884,1,I CANT WAIT UNTIL REAL SWORD OF TRUTH NOVEL APPEARS,"I'VE BEEN DUPED! THE COVER SAID ""A SWORD OF TRUTH"" NOVEL BUT, INSIDE I FIND THAT THE STORY FOCUSES ON CHARACTERS THAT AREN'T RELEVANT TO THE SERIES. THESE CHAPTERS FELT LIKE FILLER, NOW I HAVE TO WAIT ANOTHER TWO YEARS FOR THE NEXT ONE. IS IT JUST ME OR IS ANYONE ELSE READY TO SEE A CONFRONTATION BETWEEN RICHARD AND JAGANG. I HOPE THE NEXT ONE IS ACTUALLY ABOUT RICHARD AND CO."
226889,1,"Starts good, ends bad!","This book started out with an interesting new cast of characters and culture that made me hopefull that Goodkind was going to change it up a little. Unfortunately there is way too much in depth analysis of what people are eating or wearing and a lack of substance to the story. All the new characters end up (after 600 pages of reading) being irrelevant and a basic waste of time. The main character Richard then pulls some unexplained magic trick out of his [...] and saves the day,just like every other book in the series so far. I hate to stop the series after this many volumes, but ""tired"" is about the best way I can describe this series."
226909,1,Leaves marks on the side,"This cartridge fit my printer and prints. However, it leaves incremental black smudges on the side of every page it prints. I tried cleaning it, but it didn't make a difference. I thought I'd save money with this, but it definitely wasn't worth it."
226942,1,I just don't know.,"I bought what may be a wonderful phone, etc. but I just dont know. There is no users manual except for a CD that only runs on Windows. Cingular is maybe unaware that not everybody uses or wants to use Windows. There does not seem to be any other recourse. My phone died. I was forced to sacrifice a morning hoping to find a competent sales person in my local outlet. After a very visible tantrum, the manager appeared and showed me how to fix the phone, without tools.I bought a phone filled with features that I cannot understand. The phone and screens are not intuitive. Prospective buyers should force the sales people to demonstrate the phone at length and then explain how to obtain a working guide. Otherwise, Caveat Emptor!"
226954,1,Very disappointed,"Wanted to get my husband a book to read as I was absorbing my own pregnancy books - he was excited to get it - but his enthusiasm immediately waned within the first few pages and the obvious Seinfeld rip-offs. The humor was not very ""humorous"" - it was pretty painful in fact. He gave up shortly after reading about the author's brilliant term that he invented called ""re-gifting"" - (anyone else ever heard of that?). Am trying to redeem myself with a more worthy book for him - but this just wasn't it."
226990,1,Serta Memory Foam Pillow,I did not find the meory foam feature any more useful than the run of the mill stuff.
227019,1,Darrell Bock's Straw Man,"Although understandably this book is geared for the lay reader, Bock's methodology is seriously insufficient and therefore subverts his argument. Not only does he fail to engage ""real"" Jesus research scholars (like Charlesworth, Levine, Sanders & Johnson), he sets up John Dominic Crossan as a straw man. In other words he sets up arguably the most 'liberal' of scholars engaged in Jesus Research so that he can easily dismiss his argument. This is called a ""straw man"" and is a logical fallacy. Many people want to read this book to discover whether or not there is any shred of plausibility to the claim that Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene. If so, this is not the place to look! Bock does not engage the issue using appropriate methodolgies and hence his work ought not be trusted."
227027,1,Not the original artists; don't be fooled like I was!,"There was no indication in the description that these songs are not by the original artists. It was only after I received the CD that I saw ""performed by Countdown"" at the bottom of front cover. I wish Amazon (and other sites) would make it clear exactly who the performers are on a ""various artists"" CD."
227042,1,I'm a little sheepish,"I really didn't expect this book to be mil-SF, since the first one really wasn't. When the ""master sergeant"" who happens to be an Imperial Eagle Knight (oddly enough, most of the military characters have what I assume are made-up Aztec or Japanese ranks, even the Scots are ""Skawtzmen"" or something similar, but he's a master sergeant) threw a grenade and it exploded twice, I quit really caring.It's funny, I can't really explain why some books filled with battles and military action are gripping and some are groaners, but I can say for sure this guy is no C. S. Forester. If you're a mil-SF type, you might like it, but otherwise I'd suggest the first in the series."
227088,1,Would not recommend it,"I have owned some great Motorola phones and some pretty crappy ones. This is the worse so far. I thought you could not get any lower than my old Motorola V60, but this one takes the cake. Too many issues to mention, but here are a few:- The display in the front only works half the time.- For a while the phone would just turn itself off while you were speaking.- Phonebook entries dissapear.- Battery life is nothing short of dissapointing.Additionally, you really cant do much with the phone. Verizon disabled the bluetooth for file transfer, and even if you buy the motorola connectivity kit, there are very few things you can transfer.As for the positives, well, they are like finding a dollar bill in a cereal box. While there are some nice features, there is nothing there to change your life.As my contract just came up, I will get a new (non-Motorola) phone with a new service and have a burial seremony for this dud."
227120,1,Don't waste your money on this,The volume is not loud enough and people have a hard time hearing on the other end even when you speak right into it. Spend more money on something that actually works.
227175,1,very disappointed,If you own a copy of Photoshop use Adobe Gamma. No matter what I did this thing made my monitors worse not better. The factory default setting for my monitors was the closest to true color when printing color samples. Very disappointed and was hoping a product with the name 'Pantone' on it would produce desired results.
227299,1,Honeywell TE219ELW Weathertime Wireless Indoor/Outdoor Thermometer with Atomic Clock,I was initially satisfied but now it is essentially not working. FirstI lost the remote temp and now the main unit is do dim you can't read it.
227320,1,don't do it,"A fine Christmas present for an excited 3yr old turned to tears by the end of March. Every store bought cd and DVD now produces the same ""invalid disc"" error message and will not play. Don't be fooled by all the added components (remote, headphones, etc.) - none of them are worth anything if the unit doesn't work."
227410,1,Avoid Panasonic headphones like a plague,"These $100 headphones busted after a year of gentle use. As the warranty is a paltry 90 days, a series of hard-to-understand phone support technicians were unsympathetic. They suggested I buy a new one.I suggest that I will never buy another Panasonic product again, and I encourage you to do the same!"
227532,1,Movie lovers-you can skip this book,"Before I purchased this book I read the two prior reviews and thought I'd give it a try. I found that if you enjoyed the movie on any level (cast, characters, actors, story-line), then forget purchasing this book. It has absolutely nothing to do with the movie in any way. They must have just liked the title and purchased the rights to it.I found the writing to be readable but not outstanding. The story unremarkable. None of the characters likeable or warm in any way with no real direction. If you want to read a modern day western, then Annie Proloux or Larry McMurtry or Tony Hillerman are far superior. This was a dissapointment."
227533,1,Seems to work but...,"As with other buyers, I've found that this product leaves an oily residue on my cat's fur more than a week after it's application. It also made her very sick the second time it was used, mainly because there's so much of it in one vial that it spreads down her skin and fur to where she reach to can lick it. Have you ever seen bright green vomit? That's what she brought up. Flea control seems to be achieved but the side effects make me question the propriety of using this product on either of my cats (the male, fortunately, is able to wear a 6-month flea collar to which the female is allergic). They're the same age, 7 years, so I'm not discussing kittens. I will not use this product again and have already ordered Frontline Plus. I know it works and I know my cat has no adverse reaction to it. This is a case where trying to save a few dollars cost me more in the long run."
227543,1,Full of Hype,"Investing isn't as easy as Wade makes it seem. Any fool can make money in a bull market, but one's that lose money in bull markets are IDIOTS! If Wade Cook was so smart, and if his workshops are so great, why is his company still losing money?? Wade only wants to get PAID even if it means losing his students' money!"
227574,1,Poor mid range sound,I bought these speakers based on the excellent reviews that it received from other uses. I cannot understand why it is rated so high. There is practically no mid range sound in the speakers. The subwoofer and the two speakers handled the low and high frequency sounds but the voice in songs is not present at all. On a normal rock song the singer was heard faint from a distance while in music predominated by vocals I cannot hear much except squeaks. No amount of tweaking with the bass and treble knobs or the equalizer in my computer could fix the problem. I am returning the product for a refund.
227606,1,Unnecessary prattle,"I must agree that while Jim's life with Pamela deserves as much literary respect as his career or life with Patricia Kennealy, this book falls woefully short of that mark. Its slim bulk is in proportion to how over-priced it is, and its lumbering writing style is beyond tedious. Nice color photos, though. I am still waiting for the book that puts both Pamela and Patricia in equal standing with him - now *there's* a story!"
227667,1,Handel: Messiah (King's College Choir),"I would like to report exactly the same problem ""Bob North"" reported in his review. The named Blu-ray disc is not fully supported by neither my Panasonic blu-ray disc player Model DMP-BD35 nor my Philips BDP5005. My blu-ray disc players do playback the music from the disc but no video pictures are shown. Obviously, this is not the problem of the players (Bob North's Sony or my Panasonic and Philips) but that of the disc that claims to be ""designed for worldwide playback."" It is hoped that the Dutch producer of the disc take note of our problems and submit their response as soon as possible."
227706,1,Breathtakingly obvious language learning advice,"Grahm Fuller likes languages and wants to share his enthusiasm for them. This, at least, he does well. However, the vast majority of his advice can be found elsewhere and with better presentation. If you're looking for a little motivation and a few tips for getting started on language learning, Fuller is fine. But if you're serious about language learning, you'd be better off with Barry Farber's How to Learn Any Language."
227707,1,Best sci-fi novel I ever read!,"I really liked this book, it was the best sci-fi novel I ever read. I live in New York City, how anyone could think that an abduction could take place here and only like five people see it. One of the witnesses ""Janet Kimbel"" said that there were a lot of other people on the Brooklyn Bridge with her and that were ""running around screaming"" in horror, yet not one of these other people called the police or said anything to anybody ever. Believe me, New Yorkers are not known for keeping their mouths shut. But it is a fun read, I couldn't put it down!"
227724,1,WARNING!!!!! CO IS GOING OUT OF BUSINESS,WARNING THIS COMPANY IS PREPARING TO SHUT DOWN OVER A FINANCIAL DISPUTE. THERE IS NO SERVICE BEING PROVIDED FROM THEM SO THIS PHONE IS WORTHLESS. IF ANYONE KNOWS OF ANOTHER PROVIDER THAT OJO PHONES WORK WITH IM ALL EARS. HAVE MULTIPLE PHONES WITH RELATIVES ALL OVER.
227747,1,this new EA game don't like it.,"i don't like this new version of FIFA. I'm a big fan of EA FIFA games but this one don't like it.The game play is to slow, the players appear to be dummies in the field and the user interface don't like it too.Maybe its the version for the PS2 and maybe for the XBox and xBox360 have a better perfomance.Regards."
227800,1,my problems with the game,"homerun derby rules are completely made up: you get a number of pitches, not a number of outs. documentation is ridiculous, a 4th grader must've written it, it is wrong in many instances, and is pointless. throwing it away as soon as u buy the game is a good idea - it will save you from lots of frustration. franchise mode is pathetic: there is no free agent contract signing - all the free agents are put into a pool and you draft them. second, one to one trading? give me a break.playoff mode - you cannot choose the difficulty of play in this mode, it just kinda picks for itself. the game is decent, not good and definitely not great. i think they must have put in a lot of modes as a sales gimmick, but trust me, rent it before you buy it. you'll see just as i found out that the modes are for show and lack substance."
227805,1,The Quality isn't a good explanatory variable for the price,"Actually I do think that this book is too expensive, it is not worth to buy it. It spends five chapter (167 pages), more than 60% of the book, to teach matrix algebra, reader can easy read the detail matrix algebra review from many econometric texts such as Greene and Johnston. I don't think this part is helpful. For the last three chapters, it just discuss the material about OLS, all of these can be easy found in some introductory econometric text. I don't think it is very useful for anyone to read this book before studying other econometic text."
227845,1,"Beware The Fart!... Uh , I mean The Fog...","Bad...So Bad...So very very bad!, I really don't want to waste any more time on this fetid steaming sewer vapor called The Fog. I cussed all the way through this in the theater. Save precious time and watch the original. Remember to avoid any film by the crappy(Stigmata)Director Rupert Wainright(however you spell it) in the future I know I will!!!."
227850,1,Lost Potential,"Keep in mind while reading this, I've never seen the original ""The Fog"" by John Carpenter. So I'm reviewing it from that perspective.There was a lot of potential I could see in this movie. However, very little of it was delivered. The characters were very thinly developed and the story was just plain silly and bad. The acting by most of the people was very unconvincing. But what do you expect from a horror flick? In the end it really wasn't scary at all and opportunities they had to make it truly scary they passed over. Maybe this was to prevent it from getting an R rating, which finacially is probably a better move in this day and age.But I will give it thumbs up on the special effects. There was some pretty amazing stuff that I'm sure the original could not even come close to copying.Unless you are a horror or special effect nut, I wouldn't bother with this movie. Otherwise, go at it but don't expect much."
227867,1,Bad Quality,WE HAD FIVE SHIPMENTS OF THIS PRODUCT - FOUR WERE BROKEN AND HAD TO BE RETURNED THE ONE WE KEPT IS ALREADY BEGINNING TO CRACK - I STRONGLY RECOMMEND YOU LOOK AT ANOTHER OPTIONS
227950,1,I'm not paying for commercials,"The shows are, of course, superb. And the added sponsor spots are a monstrous plus. But what is up with Paramount forcing me to sit through a bunch of commercials before I can watch the DVD that I bought and paid for? You just forever lost a client, Paramount. Don't buy this set."
228037,1,The Professional It Ain't,"From Le Samourai to The Professional to Unleashed to Taken, French action films are among my favorites. Trendy, jazzy, quirky, stylish and exciting. And seeing Travolta back in action as an eccentric hitman reminds me of better days in his career. Which is why From Paris With Love leaves a particularly bad taste in my mouth. The plot is linear and by the numbers, the protagonist lacking in interesting quirks, Travolta's character is inscrutable and confusing. I was bored and annoyed by this uninspired, often jingoistic mess."
228068,1,Didn't Work,"Not much to add to the review title. I guess I could mention that it took a little longer to receive than I expected, because it shipped from China. I wouldn't have ordered it had I known that."
228102,1,"Despicable, Disrespectful, Clueless","This book - and Michael Harner - are a horrifically bad joke. A true shaman does NOT teach shamanism to the masses in workshops, and for exorbitant amounts, I might add. One is called by Spirit to be a shaman, and if one is called, one spends the rest of one's life in service, FOR FREE. I won't go on, because the rest of the negative reviewers have pretty much said it all. This man should be ashamed."
228114,1,What the heck?,"When you sit down to write a review and want to compare one volume with another it is a very good idea to know the name of the volume with which you want to compare it. Here in the reviews of the Time Almanac which is a middling work a reviewer compares it to a $90 Oxford almanac--a volume which does not exist. The best small almanac in the past has been the World Almanac because of its accessibility and vast volumes of material. I bought it every even numbered year because it went to press after the elections and therefore I could use it as a reference for political who's who. This year I wasted my money because not only did it not wait for the elections, it did not wait for the World Series. A pox upon it."
228115,1,Order with caution,"I ordered this movie from Amazon and it was greatly anticipated by my husband as a gift from me. He remembers it as a very good movie. However, we found we could not play it because this DVD can only be played in ""Play Only"" devices and may not be played in other DVD devices, including recorders and PC devices. This mistake was mine because I didn't read enough of the fine print before ordering. We've returned it and will try to re-order one that will play on our system. (Be aware of this before ordering!) Otherwise, as always before, it arrived in the condition and timeframe expected. We've found Amazon's customer service to be very helpful, efficient and fast."
228188,1,Undergraduate?,"Just once, I'd like to pick up a math text that delivers the basics up-to and including the point of the book. This ""undergraduate"" book requires prior knowledge and didn't work for me as a self-teach, even with my 5-semesters of calculus. Very disappointed."
228204,1,Too small for Canon XS with Lens,"I purchased this camera after looking at a couple reviews that mentioned they fit the canon slr EOS series. I had just recently purchased an Canon EOS XS camera (along with the 18-55mm kit lens) and wasnt a big fan of the backpack-type bags. I just wanted a case for my camera so I could put it inside my purse when i went places, instead of having to lug around another bag. However, this case was too small for my camera. It seemed JUST short of fitting my camera...i think if i had tried to tug it another inch or so, it might have just barely fit...but I didn't want to jam my camera in there, and I dont think that's what anybody is looking for as well. However, the quality and everything else was what i was looking for..too bad it didnt fit"
228208,1,Is this a joke?,"I can't believe how bad this novel is. Koontz does everything a bad writer does - from poor character development to cornball horror to pages of explanation when the plot can't suffice to create a story. There's none of Koontz' trademark dialogue, no building of tension. Just a boring series of stereotyped situations and characters.This must have been a writer's inside joke. Or maybe he just wanted to see how many critics would call it a ""tour de force"". It doesn't show much respect for his reading audience, however. I just had a hysterectomy and chose this dependable author to take my mind off my early recovery. Can't trust him any longer, however. From now on, I'm reading reviews before I buy anything by Koontz."
228269,1,"All style, no substance","And I didn't even like the style. The characters are shallow and the plot is thin and contrived in this collection of loosely-strung stories of sheer male fantasy. Some books inspire me, some books entertain me. This book was a total bore, inspiring me to nothing but annoyance at having spent 20-some bucks on the hardcover edition, and then wonder that this guy ever got a story into the New Yorker. Don't believe the hype on this one - the emperor has no clothes."
228353,1,a dissapointment compared to his last one .,what is this? Meth was so raw and hard-core on his first album and then this.i was really disapointed when i heard this.This was the one rapper i expeected to keep it real. and what the hell is with the cyborg gear?
228441,1,Not as good as I hoped,"This unit does not have the clean and clear sound that I hoped. The adjustment of bass and treble could not achieve a good EQ overall. The volume limit is also relatively low. I have owned the Yamaha MCR series and this does not compare to those systems in terms of sound quality, rounded sound, volume or ability to drive nice headphones. After six months I decided to buy another Yamaha."
228449,1,Sloooow and boooring,I have really been looking forward to a new SSI D&D game. A good old fashioned dungeon crawl with awesome graphics sounded like a lot of fun. It should be. It really should be.It isn't. The problems?The customization of characters is very limited. You get to create four cookie cutter characters. You might as well start with the pre-made characters for all the thought that goes into it. The game action is terribly slow. It takes forever to get anywhere. By the time you get through a few rooms you are so bored you can't stand it. I bought this game the day it came out and I have been trying to like it every since. I have just given up. That's $40 I will never see again. Oh well lesson learned.By the way the music is pretty good and the movement (slow as it is) is fluid and life-like. I also have had no problems with crashes but then I have a fairly high end system.I wouldn't buy this game unless you are a very patient person. I reccomend instead Baldur's Gate II.
228450,1,"Do not buy this game yet, wait until next year.","First and formost, this game is buggy, and has even destroyed some OS when trying to uninstall. I got mine to run and played it for about 10 hours. During this time the game slowed to a halt about 12 times. A patch would resolve this problem, but the game also suffers in gameplay. All the hoot and holler about being the first 3E computer game for D&D; can be forgotten, they butchered the rules. But there is good news, if you look past the bugs and the fact that this is not the game I was looking forward to ( A D&D; 3E game ! ), I think a great RPG might be in there somewhere. But wait until they fix the darn thing!Update: It has been about 3 months since the games release and the big patch (1.3) is not out yet. Wait until next year when (If? ) they get it fixed, it will cost less then ($) by then."
228533,1,To bulky.,"I am going to keep my review short and to the point. Like the palm IIC this portable won't fit in you pocket. Its to bulky. You would be better buying a sony CLIE, or palm 505 before investing your money in the prism."
228547,1,"Bad analog recording, Background noise for digital music","I purchased this product mainly for recording my LP collection into digitial format using my laptop. I thought that this could be a good product for that purpose, until I used it. This product could not record properly from analog input. It's even much much worse than recording using laptop's analog input. Not only the recording level was so low, but also the recorded mp3 or wma had so much artificial noise that it was unusable. I used USB2 connection all the time. It seems to me that USB2 doesn't help any better.Playing digital music was relatively OK, except that it produced slight background white noise. Still directly connecting from my laptop to the speaker produced much better result.I wonder what the purpose of this device might be ?Not recommended."
228696,1,Dissatisfied Customer,"I purchased an episode of Breaking Bad just an hour and a half before the current episode was shown on television. However, although I paid Amazon.com for the video, there was a problem with Amazon's system and I kept receiving a message that said try again later. I never got a chance to see the episode that I paid for. Very disappointed with Amazon.com"
228787,1,Very light comedy,"This is what might be called a ""light romance"" and not a screwball comedy at all. It's about a family of con artists that goes straight after encountering a generous old lady. The casting is poor. (It was nearly Gaynor's last film, for obvious reasons. Richard Carlson is wasted entirely, and Fairbanks is wholly unconvincing.) There are no laughs. Some of the sets are incredibly phony. And in the end the director had to rely on a parade of pups to generate good feelings. In short, this is a time waster, alarmingly out of step with the great comedies being made at the time. It's hard to believe that Selznik could be so clueless."
228837,1,Great for a year and a half,"Have used this blender for about a year and a half and loved it - I never put ice in it so I can't vouch for its success with ice, but I made (non-frozen) smoothies and blended soups in it frequently. Nothing that made it work that hard. Loved the glass pitcher and easy cleaning. However, the motor has clearly gone now - it still whirrs, but has no oomph whatsoever. Tried to blend pineapple juice with a fresh chopped banana last night and it couldn't do it. Sadly, from the other reviews it sounds like going the customer service route is pointless. Guess I'm out the $50. Next time I'll check reviews instead of buying the sale item - I thought Cuisinart was a safe bet."
228839,1,Fresh out of the box,Took the blender out of the box. Cleaned the jar and lid and started trying to use. It ran for a few seconds and then I started smelling something burning and the blender quit. I attempted to contact customer support and couldn't get through. The telephone message suggested I leave a message and they would call back. I attempted to leave a message but it said the mailbox was full. Not a good sign.
228888,1,Buy the Sony remote,"Cons: Buttons Too small, not very responsive, not enough direct function buttons.Pros: It does work"
228946,1,Maybe the next edition will be usable?,"This book seems to have been rushed into production; it desperately needs a revised second printing. As it stands, however, there are just too many errors and misstatements for it to be taken seriously. Also, the topics are somewhat out of line with the questions on the exam.Finally, a tough blow for people who are studying hard for the Sun Certified Java Programmer exam: in nearly every one of the practice tests at the ends of the book's chapters, one or more of the book's suggested answers to their own test questions are simply wrong, wrong, wrong. If this book's practice exams give you high marks, you probably will not do very well on the actual exam.If I hadn't switched over to the Sybex book, I probably would have failed the exam, but I passed it the first time. However, it cost me a week or so of finding and unlearning all the misinformation that I had already absorbed. So I recommend avoiding that."
228952,1,"worst ""movie"" I ever saw","This is a silly, high-school-level comedy that is dishonestly advertised as something serious instead. Much of the time you will see the corny actor just walking about. Maybe in a field, maybe among trees, maybe drinking beer, etc. He reads his lines like the guy who stands up to read whatever the teacher tells him to read and doesn't care at all about doing it. The audience is expected to be duped into believing the nonsense is deep and artistic by the use of angle-shots and people sitting on benches wearing masks and disconnected scenes that have no thread of continuity and other transparent such. I've seen a lot of movies but this is the worst I've ever seen. I actually fast-forwarded it to see if there was any interesting action ahead. I never had the desire to do such a thing before. What an amateurish effort."
229006,1,Avoid this game like the plague !!!,"This has gotta be one of the worst games I've ever seen on any system. This was made by a company called Volition, a company here in the US. Americans cannot make an RPG/adventure to save their lives! All the good RPG's are from Japan. The graphics are dark and hard to follow sometimes. The gameplay is ridiculousy HARD with the silly chain attack system. Do not waste your money!"
229055,1,Try with other movies,"Yo compre este documental esperando ver algo espectacular , sin embargo como fue originalmente filmada en dos dimensiones no se ve muy bien.le incorporan y sobreponen a la filmacion original unos efectos digitales en 3d pero no encajan muy bien dentro del film.No recomiendo comprar este documental si lo que quiere es verlo en 3d, si le gusta en 2d es un buen film, pero no vale la pena pagar mas por que venga en 3d."
229075,1,Catch any other version,"I'll just say ""amen"" to all the other reviews that rate this lowly. I'd much rather have a version that steals songs from Pinafore and Ruddigore (Ronstadt/Kline et. al.)!"
229082,1,Hitman,I love Timothy Olyphant but this was one of the worse movies ever..I would not recommend buying it..Waste of money..
229149,1,Not what is advertised,"In the descriptions of this product it said it was water proof. I assumed the opening to put your ipod in would be against your arm, sealing it from rain. There is just a big opening on top to slide your iPod into it. Also, it says it works for a Classic which is what I ordered it for. The hole for the earphones is on the bottom, but the jack is on the top of the iPod. It is not meant for a Classic, and you could find an armband better suited for the Classic.It is a nice product, it seems to be built well and it might work great for a different style iPod and if you don't plan to use it in any kind of wet weather. But it is not waterproof and definitely not for the iPod Classic."
229203,1,Mean spirited,"This book is nothing more than mean spirited, bigoted commentary.Throughout her internet history, Ms. Hamilton has been shown to be a condescending, rude, egotistical woman and this shows in her novel. As others have said, both in this book and on her webpage, if you are not a white, straight, Christian female of the upper class - you are doing it wrong. Stories of her mocking foreign and domestic traditions both display her level of egotism and superiority complex.I hope people from outside the country don't read this book, written by a supposedly ""etiquette expert"", and think this is how we perceive cultures other than our own.This book will add nothing to your wedding planning and will only make you sad that Ms. Hamilton got published in the first place."
229296,1,does not run in pc or dvd,i have an old dvd player and i got one set thet part 3 would not run with either device...sent it back..got another complete set which did the same thing. I would think twice before buying
229319,1,Spam needed?,"I recently received SPAM advertising this book. I do not know if it is just faked to make me believe it has been sent by the author of this book, i.e. somebody wants to harm the author by distributing SPAM in his name, or if the author thinks his book needs a push. Anyway, reason enough for me not to buy it."
229378,1,"Bach:Organ Spectacular (DVD Audio), Ton Koopman","Ton Koopman has undeniable skills at the keyboard. However, as a European virtuoso he surely should know that one must take the acoustic of the environment into consideration. He plays everything on the disk at a pace too rapid for the reverberant room. The recording is OK, but not any better than a standard CD. In fact, if you want great Bach, on a terrific organ, and wonderfully remastered on CD, get ""Great Organ Favorites"", E. Power Biggs on the Harvard Folentropp organ, recorded about 1960!Unless you need to have multiple Bach recordings, skip this one."
229384,1,Still can't get it to work,"I should've believed what others had written about this expensive doorstop. I have never been able to get the pump to prime, thus have never been able to paint a thing. I'm painting for personal use, not for professional, and therefore have use of this item on weekends, when Campbell Hausfeld's customer service is not available. I'm REALLY not happy with this waste of money, but short of bringing the unit to work with me and trying to get CH customer support on the phone at my office, I don't know how I'm going to get any use out of this. The VP's around me will be thrilled with the sound of a compressor motor coming from my office, don't you think?"
229462,1,No better than any other book source,"If you are already well researched on diet, supplements, hypoglycemia, health, etc. this book doesn't really add anything new. The Claims for any new wild better eye-opening discoveries/plan/powerful simple steps will fall short and you will quickly thumb through this book and realize it did not deliver anything that you haven't already read elsewhere.If you are not well read, this is a good resource. But it really is no better than any other doctor authored book and I wouldn't recommend this book at this price because it is no better than the lower-priced books by medical doctors.It's a three star book. But I gave it two stars for over selling a book that has information widely written elsewhere and that is a letdown for an approx $25 purchase"
229478,1,Not Healing for Me!,"not his best effort...poorly written and nothing new, as far as i was concerned, having read two of his other books. and really don't like the emphasis on anti-depressants. never felt like he got his point across, as being anything different from what i've read, i.e. depression and anxiety are caused in the brain...and tah dah...here are some meds for it. so what?"
229510,1,Not very good constructionb,"I purchased this chair and it will not stay together. After using a super adhesive and re-tightening the bolts, chair will quickly get loose. I will buy another chair but not from this seller."
229527,1,"Decent film, but Copies Shrek","This movie is a good animated film, but it has a major flaw. The animation is great or at least on par with what is expected today. However, the film completely copied the relationship between Shrek and donkey. Their banter is nearly identical and copied so perfectly that I found it painful to listen to because it is suck a rip off of Shrek. I found it to be so similar that I could not finish watching the movie. This flaw ruined what could have otherwise been a good film."
229542,1,UNREAL,"This novel was a great disappointment. It is realistic enough about material conditions of life in the Old south and during the Civil War but it is not realistic in its portrayal of characters and social relationships. Major plot events turn on ""issues"" which were never issues at the time, such as legitimacy or illegitimacy of slave children. I did not find the characters very believable, especially the slave trader, who was just too noble to be true, and the slaves themselves, who seem to accept everything massa does with a forgiving shrug. For a good portrayal of the experiences of blacks in the Union army, or of the attitudes of slaves to their unkind masters, a reader will do much better to look at Fragments of the Ark. Jacob's Ladder is slush."
229620,1,catchy title but they guy can't write,"Jeffrey Cox probably gives talks to people and gets mileage from making them feel inept. If you want to be condescended to, read this book. There are hundreds of references to rainmakers as if rainmakers are some sort of ideal persons. And the style of writing is atrocious. Many times three or four sentences in sucession begin with ""The Rainmaker..."" Just to give an idea of the tone, I have copied a paragraph from chapter 12 on how to act at a restaurant. ""Order something easy to eat. Order only one course. Order something inexpensive."" Gee... With all these commands on us whimpering salesmen who don't know our our heads from our butts, how did we manage without this book? So if you still insist on reading it, I recommend the following: Keep your head up, and see if you can sift all the tough-guy rhetoric from the good advice."
229696,1,Nothing but a con-artist.,"This fellow named Scott Houston has an infomercial on PBS stations (which is a crime against public programming) under the guise of an educational show in which he promises you'll play your favorite songs after just one lesson. It is complete with phony paid audience, and of course you have to BUY his method. I used to support our local PBS affiliate in Nashville, WDCN-Channel 8, but withdrew when they started airing commercial nonsense like the aforementioned.The Amazon listing says: ""Play Piano in a Flash: Play Your Favorite Songs Like a Pro -- Whether You've Had Lessons or Not!"" I say ""Pure B.S.""! This guy is nothing but a con-artist preying on people who aren't willing to pay a teacher or put in the time and effort to learn the real way."
229716,1,Not Worth The Money,"This shape sorter is not bad... it should just be in the discount bin for 9.99. It is flimsy plastic and the shape containing ball loosely attaches to the snail's back. The pull string is about 6"" long, so not many toddlers are going to have the patience to ""pull"" it along."
229838,1,Almost had me,"This book really almost had me up until the last 50 pages or so. Interesting story, well told, little bit of tragedy, little bit of heartache, little bit of romance, sounds like a good recipe for some light weekend reading. Then the ending! If you don't know it, skip this part, but give me a break! True love conquers all! Even birth control! All is right with the world! All I ask is the semblance of realism. What a load of horse manure (pun most definitely intended.) Waste your time if you dare, but be prepared to discus this book through the window when you've finished."

229948,1,Better Title: Memoire of Borderline Personality Disorder,"Elizabeth Wurtzel has made a career out of writing about her struggles with life as someone with Borderline Personality Disorder. She would do herself and her readers a big favor by making this clear. Unfortunately, her work has succeeded in popularizing and romanticizing both depression and addiction via mis-characterization."
229996,1,A dangerous book for those with eating disorder features,"Being a psychiatric nurse in an eating disorder unit, I have seen many of patients use this as a ""how to"" book. It offers very detailed explanations on how to decieve others, restrict/fast, and purge. The message of the book is supposed to be positive against eating disorders, however, it is not used this way. WARNING TO PARENTS: DO NOT LET YOUR CHILD READ THIS BOOK IF THEY HAVE ISSUES WITH WEIGHT OR BODY IMAGE."
230071,1,Very Bad Game!!!!!!!!!!!!,"This game just stinks. The movie was great, but the game was waaaaaaaay too rushed. The multiplayer stinks like a pile of crud because all of the characters are exactly the same except they look different and say different things. It is sooooooo repetitive! I always cream my brother at this stupid game and ticks me off because this game is so easy. If you plan on buyin' this be warned!!! This is practically just like any other fighting game (it's fun for 5 minutes but then is so boring you wanna scream!!!). I would give this just a halfa star but I couldn't. Trust me, this game reeeeeeeeaaaaaaly stinks!"
230141,1,Shot 2 rounds and failed.,"Installed batteries, it shot 2 rounds, then the motor failed.Very disappointing.My teenage son was devastated."
230210,1,what might of been,"there was potential...republic could have done things with this one...the lack of a credible villain, Terry's whininess, the cheesy tiger men, and I am afraid this was typical of the studio...cliffhangers were decent...but, not good enough..."
230237,1,Ok book on tanning,"Good title that doesn't deliver on substance. Rather than providing information on a few of the important aspects of tanning hides the author covers far to much of the topic, what you get are introductory paragraphs leaving you with the need for another resource."
230243,1,has a bit of static with the sound,not worth it to buy. but it's an old item. the ear piece is not as comfortable either.
230245,1,Poor Quality,The bulbs preformed well while they lasted. The bulbs burned out after 6 months of use. I've had other (much cheaper) brands of bulbs last up to 4 years! PIAA does not back their warranty and the customer service is horrible. I gave up on trying to get them to back their product and bought a different brand. I would stay away from any and all PIAA products.
230297,1,nunsence is boring,"Dreary,dreary, dreary. It looks like an amateur production filmed ina village hall. Rue McClanahan is using her Golden Girls popularity to make up for her total lack of musical comedy skills. There are some seriously questionable performances , lots of 'mugging'. Ugh, its just awful."
230337,1,"Cheap, don't buy or use RCAs","This product sucks.I installed my amp very carefully. Tried to pull out the RCA from my amp and the tip of the rca cable came off and stayed in the port and shorted it out.cheap. power cabe ok, rca sucks"
230343,1,8 Gauge in their dreams...,"As this is an inexpensive kit, it might be worth it to get the few useful items, like the large fuse and holder. But if you're expecting 8 gauge wires, it would only be wishful thinking. Unless, of course, you coiunt the thick plastic jacketing in the wire.There was enough for wire for a decent installation, and in my case, I thought 12 gauge wire would be adequate, it was adequate.But if you're planning to do a top notch install and actually want the advertised size, you will want to look elsewhere, as this isn't it.Not totally satisfied with this purchase."
230359,1,King not at his best,"I am an avid King fan. I have read most of his books and am intrigued by his prose. But not this time. Character development is minimal and you never grow to care about the characters like you did in ""It"" or ""The Gunslinger"" and others. Shock value is used loose and wild in these. I don't mind a little gore, but I quit reading ""The Regulators"", because it was senseless and went on and on. ""Desperation"" is the better of the two. I think maybe King ought to slow down and develop his stories, they may be getting to perverse for even me."
230433,1,Save Your Money,"Save your money and buy King's older recordings; unless, of course you like to hear her raspy voice. Recording quality not even up to late 20th Century. As others have said, why would an artist of her caliber even allow the recording to be released."
230437,1,Not their best..,"this album is for fanatics only. However, I would recommend ""The Sidewinder Sessions"" to anyone. It contains some of their best work, and is a personal favorite. Fans should also seek out guitarist Rich Hopkins other projects (i.e. Los Luminarios)."
230441,1,Piece of junk,"I was given this as a gift. The radio reception is worthless; the tuning scale is inaccurate and my unit could only pick up 1 TV station (there are over 15 in the area that my TV can pick up) and not a single wetaher channel (and my other wetaher radio can pick up at least 2 channels). It doesn't come with an AC adapter nor any method to acquire one and the specificcations for providing your own are difficult to meet. So you can either crank away or use AA batteries, but AC isn't a likely option. Without AC you're not likely yo use the ""alert"" feature as the batteries will drain down long before the next alert sounds (assuming you can actually reliably receive a wetaher station.)Save your money. Maybe the Midland unit works better? At least it runs on AC and will work as an alarm clock so not all will be lost."
230456,1,battery chirping again after just opening a new monitor,"I had 2 of these monitors, one was 4 years old and the chirping started, replaced the battery and it was good for a week or 2 then chirping again (this makes the animals very upset and fearful)so I threw it out and opened up a brand new unit. Good for 1 week and again the chirping, changed batteries to fresh, this time only good for a day or two. Threw it out, I'm not going to put the animals and myself through all this upset again.I will never again buy this brand."
230535,1,"Great idea, poorly executed","As someone who snacks while they work, I was thrilled when I found this easy-to-clean keyboard. Sadly, my excitement soon turned to aggravation.The Virtually Indestructible Keyboard is fairly difficult to get accustomed to. When I first got it, I felt like I was learning to type all over again. The keys require much more pressure than a traditional keyboard (at times, you have to hit a key three or four times before it heeds the command). So unless your hands and wrists are virtually indestructible, you're almost guaranteed carpal tunnel. It's so much more difficult to type using this keyboard that my typing speed is probably 25% or 30% less than with a standard keyboard.Secondly, the inked figures on the keys wear away very quickly. For me, the vowels were gone after only two weeks. A few weeks later, half of the letter keys were blank.Don't waste your money. Get one of those little keyboard vacuums instead."
230556,1,Cool But Useless,"These keyboards are cute, portable, and spill-proof, but indestructable they're not. I've owned several and, after sending two of them back for replacement, wound up throwing them all out. After a couple of months (at best) several of the keys stop working, rendering them useless. This has happened too many times to be a fluke. An indestructable keyboard that fails under normal use? Don't bother."
230587,1,.,I hated what this did to my belly.I guess I was allergic so good luckAnd make sure you check ingredient
230607,1,Could not abide the stench,"I bought this mat on my yoga teacher's recommendation but the smell of the rubber was so bad that I returned it. It was laid out in my house for 2 weeks and was still intolerable. And it's not like you can put these in a washing machine; they require tub washing and air drying (but watch out ---no sunlight allowed). This mat is also very dense and hard; the two times I used it I felt like I was lying directly on the floor. On the plus side, it was nicely sticky. I emailed the company asking them to air out these items before selling them but they refuse. There are other eco-friendly mats that do not stink."
230636,1,Not at all what I hoped for.,"The entire tape plays like a radio show with a lot of talking and very little music. I thought it would be more up beat, playful, and full of songs my child would love. I am entirely disappointed and can't even give this CD to anyone because they don't want it. :("
230690,1,I wish I could give it zero stars!,"This is quite possibly the worst compilation I've ever listened to! They bill this as a ""gothic masterpiece"" something which it most certainly is NOT. It's not even dark sounding, because some of the songs on here are covers of old pop songs with some lazy singing over them. PUKE! Masterpiece? Hardly, as this album makes it obvious that drinking a lot of beer and burping for half an hour is more ""intelligent."" Awful. Especially the fourth song, which is a stupid techno nightmare, and it is far from being good or listenable techno.Oh yeah, and it has the worst artwork I have ever seen. Avoid at all costs."
230710,1,Over done,"~Ok, don't get me wrong, I didn't hate the book... just the way it was written. I loved the story behind it and it was moving and emotional, but the ""way"" the author wrote it annoyed me to the very end. The dialog between the characters and just the little things they said ~!~ Nobody really talks that way. I don't know, but just because of how they talked to eachother made it really apparent that an adult wrote the book and not the 17 yr old girl who lost her close friend. And the whole point of a book is to make the characters come to life, right? It would've worked for me if only the conversations had been more realistic."
230739,1,Useful conversations; poor recordings.,"The ""Icelandic Converstaions"" cassette tapes contain lots of useful phrases for the student of Icelandic, and the transcription is the only written material I know of containing English and Icelandic side-by-side, which is a great tool for learning. However, the recording was done long ago on primitive equipment, and it's quality is so poor as to be almost unintelligible. The speakers talk really fast and often kind of mumble. The result is useless unless you can re-record the tapes digitally, boosting the high frequencies and slowing down the speed. There is also too much time wasted on between-conversation English instruction, and the written transcription contains several errors. Plus, in my copy at least, the transcription is missing one complete page. Buy it, because there is nothing else available, but the whole thing needs to be re-done."
230753,1,No spare parts,"I needed another bread pan for the machine, and when I called the Mfr, they said they don't make the bread pan. I asked if it was because it was an older model, they said no. So,if anything breaks, you pretty much need to buy a new bread machine."
230779,1,Disappointing,"I was very disappointed in this book after reading a rave review of it. I enjoy books with strong or memorable characters - this book had neither. Everything always worked out too well. Her father's embezzlement was brushed aside, but would in reality have not been tolerated. In the author's epilogue, she characterizes the real Mehrunnisa as mean, treacherous, in charge; yet the author made her too saccarinely sweet in the book; she was definitely not a memorable character. Nor was the emperor - at first he was evil and corrupt, then suddenly upon becoming emperor, he became thoughtful of his people - give me a break! While I recognize and appreciate the author's extensive research into this time period, I was amazed that the book was accepted for publication, since we never really even care about any of the characters! If you would like to read a book about India with memorable characters, read A Fine Balance by Mistry...now, there is a great book!"
230786,1,Big disappointment for a big Vachhs fan,"I've read most of the Burke series of books at least twice. This book was very disappointing. I think he tried to cover too many bases, and ultimately nothing seemingly happens. This is one of those books when you get to the end you say, ""Is that it?"" Not sure why the time stamp was so important since there was never any real climax or denouement to the book. I'll still read his books, but wouldn't recommend this one.Greg Ingram"
230826,1,YUK,I hated these. Wish I had returned them. You should be able to say you dislike a produce with out having to use a specified number of words. I
230860,1,I didn't like The Alienist either,"I guess I'm a victim of my own addiction to reading. I didn't like the Alienist and this is far worse _ 747 pages in paperback. OK, give Carr a star for knowing about turn of the century New York (although who knows if that's accurate _ i wasn't there.)But the characters are cardboard (1990s politically correct as one of your reviewers noted). Good African-Americans, feminists, street urchins and horses, plus a drunken newspaperman with a heart of gold and a screwy shrink. Fine, but they're cardboard cutouts with little depth. Carr even adheres (in both books) to the myth of Teddy Roosevelt, not the reality. (If they had TV spots for politicians in his day, Carr could have gotten a job writing them.But I'm getting almost as long as Carr. There are a lot better in the mystery genre _ from Alan Furst to James Ellroy and Katherine Kijewski. Try them and leave Carr in 1897."
230914,1,Brainwash,"The Lorax is a rather unvarnished brianwashing for young children to convince them that corporations are bad. The art and character are charming and some of the positive values are not bad. The denegration of family and business is, however, unacceptable in a moive aimed at impressionable minds."
230945,1,"Letters and numbers on the keys wear-off quickly, don't buy.",I bought 2 of these within a few months of each other because I love this keyboard because of the small size! It's set up great! One of the best keyboards in the world! The problem is that the letters/numbers on the keys come off in 3-6 months making the keyboard worthless extremely quickly and then you have to go out and buy new ones. I don't use the keyboards much so the letters and numbers on the keys should not wear-off so quickly but it's a big flaw of this keyboard because its happening with the 2 that I own.
230949,1,Avoid the pan and scan travesty,"This was a thoroughly enjoyable movie . . . on TV, where it was broadcast in widescreen format. Then somebody had the bright idea to butcher it with a pan and scan DVD transfer. This movie will be worth buying, when it eventually shows up in the original widescreen aspect ratio."

231126,1,"THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY","Per the photo online, this coral bracelet looked just like what I have been searching for. Upon receipt, I discovered that the clasp would not stay closed, even with the 2 ""figure-8"" safety clasps, neither of which would clasp properly, either. It wasn't genuine karat gold that I requested and that led me to wonder if this just wasn't total costume jewelry. I won't be using this vendo again."
231140,1,Do not waste your money,"I bought the PUR 2-Stage Vertical White Faucet Mount FM-3333B about 2 months ago. It was easy to install and worked right away. However, that didn't last long. The amount of water coming out of the filtered side slowed down quite rapidly. Barely two months after installing it, there is hardly any water coming out. The filter has an indicator that is supposed to flash green when the filter cartridge is good, and changes color to orange or red when it's time to change it. Mine didn't even get to that point and it stopped working. I never ran hot water through the filter which is a warning that came in the instructions. This is just very poorly constructed. This product was cheap, and worked cheaply. Don't waste your money. Make some more research and instead, buy a quality product that will work."
231178,1,overwritten rubbish,"Club Dumas was an OK novel but this is several levels below even that. Perez-Reverte has written himself out and has nothing interesting or new to say. The set-ups are dull, the characters are boring and there is absolutely no tension. The adjective ""swashbuckling"" seems to have been used a lot in reviews but I felt myself yawning to sleep over this musketeer. There is no feel for history whatsoever. Vastly overrated."
231184,1,Beware... It doesn't work on some systems,I have windows XP SP2. My CD drive doesn't recognize this CD. It says either CD format is different or corrupt. I ordered for a replacement and even the replacement CD it is the same problem. I never had problem with any other CD.There is nothing in the Technical support. I returned my CDs.
231189,1,A good book for a novice christian!,"The Christian Atheist is a book that, for the most part, talks to men and women of God about living their life in faith that God exists. He discusses several situations in which many Christians live as though they don't believe in God. I have to say that this book is well written and the author did a good job and bringing it down to the level of the ""normal"" person. But with that being said, I gave this book one star because, in my opinion, he ""dumbed"" it down too much. As I read this book, I found it to be a waste of my time (but maybe not yours). I thought that his ideas were solid, but underdeveloped. In addition, I felt that this book was marketed to every Christian, but only effective for the novice Christian."
231232,1,Clogged Heads,"I can only echo the posts of others in this list. The heads get clogged, and the printer starts spitting out blank pages. I was happy with the machine up to that point, even though it seems (to me, at least) a little thirsty, and I can't print a black text document if any of my color cartridges are empty. Excuse me, in truth, I can't print a black-text document if the printer THINKS any of my color cartridges are empty. I have had the printer tell me a cartridge is empty, and when I take it out and shake it, I hear plenty of stuff sloshing around in there. I called Epson and they offered to fix it free, with free shipping both ways, even though it's out of warranty."
231237,1,this is the worst survivor i see,all match doesnt be hardi dont surprice for this ppv 2004its anormal2003 is betterand 2002 is most intersting
231261,1,This game is going right back to J&R Music,"This game caused all kinds of havoc with my PC. Norton was constantly giving me low risk messages, and my PC ran Windows check disk on reboot. Never saw that before! I also had problems printing before I uninstalled this game."
231315,1,First Album was better..,"Beastie or no Beastie Boys, I was dissapointed when played Vallejo's new album. As compared to their fantastic debut, this album just fails to rock. I can appreciate the approach back to latin roots, but I though this band rocked harder. Totally uninspired. It sounds like DJ Hurricane took the storm out of a firery latino rock band. I still wish to see if they still rock live. I also can't understand why AJ and Alex are posed on the cover the way they are.."
231408,1,An immense disappointment -- who is his audience?,"I ordered this book on the strength of the reviews here -- I guess that's why sometimes it pays to browse in the real bookshop... anyway, as a veteran of Rhodes, Gleick, Hawking etc. I found this to be almost an impossible read. On the one side, he waves his hands around rather pompously, and on the other, he never defines anything clearly except (partially) the Planck scale. The insistence on discrete space is fine, but he repeats himself over and over, as if this will convince us. After struggling here, I went back and read some really clear science prose again: Isaac Asimov (outdated, of course)... too bad he's not around to tell us about quantum gravity."
231420,1,CINDERELLA MAN DVD,"IT WASN'T WHAT I EXPECTED IT TO BE. I THINK IT A GOOD TRY TO RELIVE EVENTS AND EMOTIONAL PARTS OF JIMS' AND FAMILY'S LIFE, BUT IT JUST DOESNT DO IT FOR ME. MAYBE BECAUSE I ALREADY KNOW THIS MANS LIFE IN EVERY DETAIL THAT THIS DVD SEEMS A BIT LIGHT IN REFLECTING THE REAL THING. I'M STILL HAPPY THAT I BOUGHT THE DVD, BUT I WAS EXPECTING SOMETHING DIFFERENT."
231422,1,No support for this item!,"I recently purchased this item and it no longer is supported. Once loaded, the program attempts to register via dial-up to Caere corporation. Two problems! It doesn't recognize a high-speed modem and Omnipage is now owned by Nuance. You will then get continuous countdown warnings on how many times you can use your software until the counter reaches zero. I do not know if version 10 fixes this problem."
231517,1,Unbelievable simple,I bought this book looking at the product details and the content. I was expecting it to have some tips and trips to save time in calculation or computation. I must say that I was very disappointed with it. 10th graders perform more complicated math than what is shown in the book. It is oversimplified and gives a false sense of confidence to the test taker. Returned the book immediately.
231550,1,it is not stable!!!!!,"No matter what I do, I can't make it stable. It wobbles and wobbles.Read other reviews and don't buy this piece of junk!"
231613,1,There must be a better vocab book for standardized tests out there.,"I was immediately disappointed when I opened this book. Each page has 4 or fewer vocabulary words on it. The publisher could have used some of the empty space to put pronunciations of the words. Sure, just the word and definition is all that's needed to learn the word for a test, but I can't incorporate the word into my general vocabulary if I'm unsure how to pronounce it.Also, some of the words have other uncommon words in the definition. Not putting the definition in simple English makes it difficult to get a grasp on the meaning. On the opposite token, I would expect there to be many words that I recognize in the book. That is unavoidable. Yet some of the words are so commonplace I cannot imagine anyone about to take one of these tests that wouldn't know their general meaning. Some examples are the words ""stereotype,"" ""component,"" ""dimension"" and ""renegade."" These are just a few of dozens."
231619,1,bad copycat,"This tape is just a cheap/cheesy knock-off of the AND1 tapes. The music isn't as good, but I can get over that by playing my own music over it if i ever watch it again. And there aren't any good moves at all. And that's what I want to see. This tape is just dunk after dunk after regular dunk. The thing that made me mostly not like the tape was the ""white-boy"" section. It's kind of racist in a way. It's basketball, if you're good, you're good, it doesn't have much to do with race, so why segregate it. The reason I gave it one star was because the section on that crazy dunker, he got higher that anyone i've ever seen. That was cool to watch. Also, the thing on Skip was cool, but I want to see him dribble and do moves, (like in AND1 Vol. 1) but he doesn't on this tape. I say save your money and get the old AND1 tapes if you can find them. I saw an ad for volume three. Hopefully it'll be better than this."
231658,1,Amazon can't deliver,"I ordered this before tax day in April and I am now told that I won't see it until August. Amazon has blown past expected delivery dates several time so far, so I have no reason think that they will meet the August date. Order this product only if you never want to receive it."
231684,1,Gourmet Fast Food?,"Wow, this book is great. Only if you want gourmet food. I was hoping this stuff (ingredients) would be easily available, not so. I was looking forward to items I see on hells kitchen and other shows on bbc. Sure, its Gordons best all the time."
231774,1,Worse performance than my wireless-G router,"I bought this router because my new laptop had wireless-N technology. However, it took forever to get the router to work with my laptop with encryption enabled. Then, when I finally got it work, the signal strength/range was no better than my G router. The router's speed was worst of all. Compared side-by-side the download and upload speeds for my G router were consistently better by a considerable margin. I tested the speed using multiple websites and the wireless-G router was always better. None of the suggestions from the Linksys website helped improve the speed. I don't even use it anymore. I just use my G router for everything, although I haven't had the heart to disconnect it altogether because I paid $70 for it. I'm secretly hoping that Linksys releases a miraculous firmware upgrade that will fix it."
231797,1,Not Impressed,"I'm a transexual woman who has lived as a woman for the last 12 years. I've never once dated a man and have remained true to my spouse of 35 years. This woman makes statements that simply aren't true. I know dozens of transexuals and gay men and women who are in commited relationships and have been for years. Just because Alice wants to sleep with dozens of men, doesn't mean we all do. The other thing she forgot to mention in her book is that most crossdressers are straight and married or single and looking for a woman that understands. Alice has done our community a diservice in writing this book."
231805,1,Disappointed,"Bzezsny does not come through with his promise of an antidote for paranoia. The book is very experiential and would be adequately described as a workbook of esoteric, narcissistic, and sometimes profane, exercises that will help only those with excessive time on their hands. But then again if you are familiar with Brezsny you might get exactly what you would expect."
231870,1,Ick. Not for me.,"Supposed to be great. Critics loved it. So original. I thought it was boring and annoying. A collection of short stories about unlikable people, a lot of gibberish that was intentionally unintelligible. Which is fine for a while, but an entire book is too much. I really disliked it. I applaud any attempt to do something completely different, so I give it two stars instead of one, but jabbing knitting needles into my eye sockets would be different too, and I wouldn't like that much either."
231876,1,Save your money!,"I was so excited to buy this coffeemaker as I have a Krups machine (without a grinder) that is excellent! Well, I have experimented for the past few days with this new one and I have yet to make a decent cup of coffee. I don't mean a great cup either...I mean one that is even drinkable!I have a feeling that the grinder burns the coffee before it's brewed because the stuff tasted rank. The problem was not with the beans because they were new and of a variety that I've enjoyed before.Another thing I didn't like: this coffeemaker doesn't come with a filter. I had to run out for coffee filters, something I haven't used in years. The gold mesh filter I have for my other Krups machine wouldn't allow this one to close properly.Do yourself a favor and take a pass on this one."
231887,1,Criminal Sales. Pure Fraud.,"bought the Lentek Yard Control Plus. NEVER WORKED AT ALL. DOES NOTHING EXCEPT SELF-TEST. DETECTS NOTHING. TRIED MORE NEW BATTERIES. DOES NOTHING EXCEPT SELF-TEST. DETECTS NOTHING. BOUGHT VOLTMETER TO TEST BATTERIES. BATTERIES OK. 1.65 VOLTS DC. BATTERIES JUST FINE. REPEAT: NEVER DETECTED ANYTHING, EVER. I'LL BE VERY SURPRISED IF THIS OUTFIT REFUNDS MY MONEY. CANT WAIT TO SEE."
231892,1,Rio800 - Digital Thievery,I bought a Rio 800 in February and have used it seldom because it is junk. It has never worked well and the manufacturer couldn't care less. It discharges randomly then charges partially and at its best can't be used for more than an hour. The display is even more frustrating since it is impossible to see - it's sort of grey on blue and navigation is a trial. Please don't subject yourself to unwanted pain. Buy a different product.
231943,1,"Incredibly long, boring and historically incorrect","I think my title says it all. This one is in bad need of editing. The action is few and far between. I wonder if the director knows that the old ""I'm a traumatized soldier who has gone insane"" thing was done to death in the 80's? And Japanese soldiers who give up at the first hint of danger? Nothing could be farther from the truth about these guys. Ever heard of the code of Bushido? The Japanese soldiers were notorious for not surrendering. They would rather die than be taken alive. Many of the actors, such as George Clooney, have very small roles. There is one decent part of the film where an artillery observer calls in an artillery strike, but that's about it during this three hour monster. The other 178 minutes or so are so boring that you'll be lucky if you stay awake. A large cup of coffee is a must with this film."
231981,1,Didn't work sorry to say,"Nothing I've plug into this hub has worked. I intended to use this hub to simplify the wiring to a variety of peripherals (both low and high current) to my laptop. Most devices (such as thumb drives) I plug into the hub were not recognized by the laptop, others performed poorly or not at all. Back to Amazon!"
231984,1,no continuity after computer sleep,I bought this item on amazon. After the computer sleeps - my devices which are plugged into this hub do not register - ie mouse & keyboard. If i unplug/replug the cables they will *usually* come back. If i un/replug the hub-to-computer line i may lose one device and get back another. Its a real mess and renders the thing an irritating little box. I had a similar problem 2 years ago with the same brand and i suppose im a glutton for punishment - i figured the problem could not possibly have migrated to a newer version of this device. Its crap - avoid!
232055,1,Terrible movie,"I'm not going to say much cause theirs not much to say. But I will tell you that the live action RE movies went really downhill after apacolypse. Their's really no plot in this movie, just pointless mess. The acting sucks and they did a really good job screwing the live action series. Please don't buy this trash."
232172,1,Do not buy this item - It is not well designed.,"This pen is very interesting, it has a great concept but it performs rather bad. The other reviewers were right in saying that this product fails in every aspect, its a great technical feat but it does not deliver. Some problems I found was when I was trying to scan a book, this becomes very difficult as you have to hold the book down, while holding the DocuPen hard against the book. Towards the middle the Docupen actually wrinkles the page. Now dont get me wrong, it works great if you were scanning a single page, but it fails for books. Its also rather cheaply made, I think the next generation of these items will be much better. A button to ""scan"" would have been better as well."
232262,1,"Compelling Story, Poorly Reported.","This could be a haunting story, but it is made annoying by the author's hack writing style. I'm sorry I spent time and money on this book."
232275,1,Don't use frozen fruit with this blender!,"Every morning, except when the blender is broken, I make a smoothie with soy milk and frozen fruit for breakfast. I echo the complaints of others. The all metal drive is a lie! It is rubber, and every time a piece of frozen fruit gets caught wrong in the blade the part of the blender that connects the blade to the motor shears off. I take it back, get a replacement, and before long it does it again. I would estimate that I have gone through 5 of these blenders in the last 8 months.If you plan on using your blender to blend any kind of frozen fruit, buy something else. I haven't figured out what yet, but nothing by oster."
232281,1,cheap plastic base,"I had an Oster Blender that worked great for 30 years. When it died, I thought I could do no wrong in purchasing another Oster brand. I purchased the beehive for its 500/600 watt ice crushing/smoothie making ability. $56.00 is a little pricey and I thought I was purchasing a good quality item. The glass jar and the chrome base seem to be good quality materials. However, the blender jar base(part that holds blade/rubber ring) is of very thin cheap plastic. It broke after just a few uses. Of course the store would not take it back after 60 days.Luckily I had not thrown out the old Oster blender. I took the old glass jar base (good heavy plastic)and it fit the new Oster.Another problem with this blender: The plastic part on the chrome base that holds the jar base is also of cheap thin plastic. Cheap plastic attached to a heavy chrome base doesn't make good engineering sense to me. I keep waiting for it to break.Come on, Oster, put good quality materials into your products!!!!"
232330,1,Didn't do much for me,"While I had heard this oil was great for treating skin fungus, it didn't help at all that I could tell. The smell is ok, but a bit medicine-like."
232407,1,Not worth bring home,Don't waste your time! And Lord help you if you ever need a cartridge...FORGET IT!!
232533,1,"Enlightening but certainly not a ""guide"".","While enlightening I feel the title of the book can be misleading. The title should have been ""Making the Case for Simple Organic Living"". Woody gives you countless reasons why simple organic living is a path in life worth taking. The personal anecdotes are very entertaining and eye opening. Unfortunately I was expecting more specific examples of how one begins down the road. Maybe Woody and his team could write a follow up. It would certainly make a great companion book to this one."
232550,1,It was OK for a while,"At first it worked OK but it started to make files. Thousand of file and I was losing one to two GBs per day. I contacted them but got no help. Their reply was ""I understand you are having trouble installing PC-Cillin"". That was their answer. After I found the files it took over an hour to delete them. This was probably an isolated case but they could have done a better job in helping. Or at least read my email so it make some kind of sense."
232622,1,part not as described or pictured,"This part was not at all like it was described, attempts to return seem to be failing as well. Very dissatisfied!"
232640,1,it sucks,"I don't have much to say about this cd, there's only one good song on this album called 'Fight Fire With Fire', the rest just sucks. I don't recommend this album, cause it will disapoint you very much. When you here the first track, you probably think I'm wrong, but what did I said? I said the first song is the only good one! The rest sucks! So save your money on this one!"
232668,1,not fit product ordered for,"solid enough metal to work w/o flexing. will NOT work on 2008 toyota highlander, 3.5 engine. too small diameter. even tried moderate amount of pressure hoping for a snug fit but never worked. don't buy for this model hoping it will work. i don't understand how other sites when searching w/ google describe a 64mm as what's needed. if this is truly a 65mm and too small..."
232725,1,"promises much,delivers very little",This book is full of contradictions and incorrect information.I cannot recommend this book at all.
232754,1,overrated as hell,"I find it pretty funny how there are so many people who say how awesome ""master of puppets"" w/ out realizing how overblown and overrated it is. its one thing to like an album, but to just spoil it w/ undeserved credit like this is nausiating. metalrules.com called this the all time greatest heavy metal album ever, IT'S NOT! it doesent even deserve to be in the top 50. the greatest metal album ever would be ""sad wings of destiny"" from judas preist, not this pile of garbage from amature musicians."
232814,1,Breaks easily,"The mobile is completely plastic. The mobile started leaning and when I looked to see why, it snapped off and luckily missed falling directly on my son! The piece at the bottom that connects to the crib is not secure enough to hold the load - obviously - or I just happened to purchase one that was defective! I think it could be made better. I would not buy again!"
232818,1,LAME and CHEAP,"I bought this tape thinking I would learn something: I don't dance at all. Half the tape is full of ""testimonials"" from other students. Some of the women look like deer caught in the headlights! To me, it was worthless. They do teach some basic stuff and you will learn, but very little. You'll learn more by going to a strip club. The instructor's movements seem robotic, as if she's never actually done this before. It was a waste of good money."
232923,1,I should have believed the other reviewers...,"Please save your money. My trusted local pet store sells these, so I thought it would be a good quality product. Was I ever wrong. I've had this pump for less than a week. It's loud, and it has definitely lost power. Hardly any bubbles come out of the air stones in my 55 gallon tank, and the hydro sponge filters I ordered have not even arrived yet. There is no way this thing could power those filters by the time they arrive.The cheap-butt Walmart piece-of-junk pump I bought works better than this, and I've been using that thing for months, as opposed to less than a week for this Penn-Plax. Don't make the same mistake I did. The other reviewers and I are not exaggerating. This pump is not worth your money. I'm thinking even the cheapest pump on the market would be better than this."
232997,1,Unevenly grinds beans,"This grinder does not work well if you use a French press to make coffee. It grinds the beans very unevenly - some large pieces and some very fine dust, even on the ""Percolator"" (coarsest) setting. When you brew the coffee the fine dust goes right through the metal filter and ends up in your cup.On the plus side, it is easy to clean and maintain. It may work fine if you use paper filters."
233007,1,KC light covers,"This item was misrepresented. It shows in the picture that the letters are small, but when we received them, the KC letters took up the entire surface. I was very disappointed, as was my son when he opened them for Christmas."
233010,1,Makes my hair feel like straw,"I've only bought this in stores, not on amazon & I don't care for it at all. I prefer the straightening gel which of course is nowhere to be found in stores now."
233097,1,Cable is crap,"We plugged this cable into our midi board and the computer only received one out of every 8 to 10 notes. We purchased a Yamaha cable and everything worked fine.But since we opened it, they wont take it back and we are stuck with a useless cable."
233122,1,The smell made it unusable for me,"Let me say that I'm a John Frieda fan. I use the Frizz-Ease hair serum on my thick, curly hair every day and it works wonders. So I was prepared to like this product.I'm not very sensitive to product scents; I will use most anything if it makes my hair look good. This one is an exception, though. It smells terrible -- to my nose it's a combination of watermelon, dead fish, and baby powder -- and the smell does not go away as the product settles and dries. I couldn't even give this a second test try because it smelled so bad. It did make my hair shiny, but there is no way I could possibly use it. Bummer! I see that a couple other reviewers have liked it, though, so it's definitely a subjective matter and not everyone would find the smell so objectionable."
233126,1,Didn't Like it,"Tried this book on a recommendation from my brother. Found it really stupid and kind of arrogant in the use of language, like he was trying too hard to impress you with obscure words (and I like to think I have a pretty good vocabulary). Kind of like he swallowed a thesaurus and borrowed other peoples stories besides. Read the whole thing, but have no desire to read any more of the series. Main character too angry and couldn't seem to get over it. Wore me out."
233264,1,Missing over 80 pages...!,"I have found that the entire ""N"" section and a good deal of the ""M"" section have not been included in this book, due to an obvious misprint! Beware, buyer!"
233282,1,DO NOT BUY THIS TOASTER !,"AMAZON, DO NOT SELL THIS PRODUCT TO ANOTHER CUSTOMER !Beware. This toaster is unsafe. I purchased this product on September 27, 2008 and on December 15, 2008, it almost caught my kitchen on fire. The 2 left slots will not eject the toast. Also, the special eject push button does not work. Had I not been in the kitchen, the bread would have caught fire. The bread ended up being so charred it was worthless. So much for assuming the toaster works properly. I have tried contacting T-Fal via the telephone and email. T-Fal sent me an email with ""incident # 081213-000013"" but to date, no one has contacted me back. The wait-time on the phone is ridiculous. T-Fal should have more respect for consumers. So now, I'm expected to ship the product to a T-Fal service center and pay for shipping on a product that didn't even last 3 months? Please Amazon, remove this product from your store and do not sell it to anyone else. Model # 572727 Ref # TT750150/4YA-4707"
233369,1,Great but gets you dirty....,The Toro was bought for me to use in cleaning up my rose beds. I used it and it had good vacuum pressure and did a good job the only thing was it filtered dirt all over you.
233491,1,Salt,Had to return the DVD as it was not compatible for the United States. Had I realized that I never would have ordered it.
233519,1,Kinda sucks to play - but has nice special effects unseen in any other game,"I think it's about time gamers DEMANDED their games have spectacular new special effects AND be fun to play.This game was not fun to play.I would rather fast forward through a video of someone else completing the game just so I could see the special effects and design, and not have to hack out hour after hour of horrible game play.This design team was just chosen to do the next gen design for a upcoming Jedi title- it had better be FUN as well as DEVASTATINGLY BEAUTIFUL."
233524,1,Stay away from Black and Decker,"I have bought many B&D toaster ovens over the years. However, in the last 4 years, the quality has gone seriously downhill. Screws are missing, toasting is erratic and uneven.The finish is peeling off. My daughter had to return two new ones within two weeks. I am about to buy a Cuisinart. B&D is an abomination!!"
233574,1,False Adverisement,"This product used to be advertised as a spare UV bulb for pond clarifier, but it is really NOT an UV bulb. It costed me money and time. It is not economical for me to ship it back, and wish the supplier simply refund me the money without the product being returned but I doubt it since the supplier wants to make more money by false adverting the function of the product."
233624,1,horrible sound,"i'm a great fan of Julio Iglesias, but this DVD should never have been released with an absolutely apalling sound quality as well as a poor selection of songs. I'm totally amazed any producer would put such poor sound quality on a DVD."
233637,1,Security hazard,"One replaced after two months not heating anymore. Another one which died one year later, not heating anymore too. It was a good opportunity to notice that the bottom/base was damaged (by normal use!!!) and that potentially coffee could be in contact with the wires in the base. A colleague of mine told me she had the same issue at home (damaged base). This could set a fire.The clock is perfect. The coffee was OK.Crappy model. Black and Decker should test properly its products."
233702,1,WTH!!!,"Recieved the package in a good enough time but the issue was that disc 3 was missing & in it's place was Agent Cody Banks 3, which leads me to believe that it was done intentionally. Emailed the seller twice in hopes to just get the third disc sent out sent my hubby had no issue w/the other discs but seller never responded. Forced to file a claim to get my money back. Highly dissapointed w/the service & dissapointed hubby who of course really wants to watch disc 3 it was the most important disc to him & he doesn't have it. Buyer be ware I will never buy from this seller again."
233723,1,Don't waste your time,Conair steamer does not work very well. I think I can get a better steam in the shower. You might be able to do a shirt in half an hour if you're lucky. Trust me. Don't waste your time with this item.
233730,1,Very poor product,"This is by far the worst dual cassette deck that I have ever purchased. The play back and record have very poor sound quality. The tapes regardless of what kind, do not play at the right speed, in other words they play slower then other tape decks.Very unhappy."
233776,1,Let off some steam Bennett!,"Working at a bookstore, one gets to see all the really nifty right-wing books that come in, books from the insatiable Ann Coulter to the rotund William Bennett. Of course, these books are prominently displayed, as the right-wing will go into hysterics if they were not and cry ""LIBERAL CABAL!!!""The Gambler Bennett, well, he's broke even with his new manual on how to convince the world on the need to end moral decline once and for all in the United States, especially after the wretched events of 9/11. And of course, The Gambler has all the answers to our problems. But, as Spencer Tracy says to Fredric March in the classic 1960 film ""Inherit The Wind"", ""It's a shame we don't all possess your positive knowledge of what is right and what is wrong, Mr. Brady."""
233779,1,Performance Now 4.0,I was not happy with this software because I couldn't even load it. I got an error everytime I loaded it and I had tried to load on another computer as well and got the same result. I had to return the product for a return. I was not satisfified with my purchase at all.
233788,1,"Caution! Sinnerman runs 10+ mins! (""POWER....""etc)","Liked the movie so I wanted to get the soundtrack, BUT it doesn't play well for me as a regular listenable CD: relatively short (38min CD) and Sinnerman is the WHOLE song (you'll hear ""POWER"" more than you wish for! I dare you to count! The snippets in the movie are easier to take). Conti's instrumentals are lumped at the end and run short and repetitive. Can't say I listen to this much, but have been thinking of just taping the parts I like. :("
233820,1,Think twice,First price was steep for one piece. Second... A lil false advertising. They show you a multi-piece set and only ship you one. So please think first before you buy!
233860,1,Don't expect too much if you are non-believer,"When I bought this book I was non-believer of Christianity who expect dramatic break through about Christianity from this book and I got badly disappointed. While the author did great job on some field but overall the book contains fundamental problems of Christian apologetics such as mentioning the bible to back up his logistics. For non-believer, it wouldn't work if you choose bible as primary reference for your explanation, since non-believer do not believe the bible itself. It is like explaining gravity to someone who doesn't understand the Newton's law itself. ""Because Newton says so"" wouldn't work. To make it work the author should see things as non-believer but it is as much hard as the non-believer tries to understand the believer. It is a good book but I have a doubt if it is useful book."
233917,1,Far From Like New,Cd case was cracked in all directions and cd itself had a white cloudy substance all over it. Not very happy with this purchase.
233983,1,Leaking LaCrosse Chinese boots,"The left boot had a leak right out of the box, not a big leak but enough to make my sock wet. Made in China tells the story. At one time LaCrosse boots were well made and had a long life, now I get anywhere from six months to one year use out of them."
234001,1,Awful. Mostly maltodextrin.,"We ran out of Jolly Time and picked this up at the store. Tastes bad and is mostly maltodextrin, which causes stomach upset for most of my family. Avoid if you don't like maltodextrin."
234028,1,Shows author's bias and borders on conspiracy theory,"This book is a bad read. Book does show that the author has vast knowledge of world history and geography but at the same time brings out his strong biases towards racial and religious make-up of the world. The book makes some very simplistic judgments about the historical nature of conflicts and adds huge amount of weights towards some abstract ""civilizational"" construct of human life. Humans are way more complicated and driven a lot by nationalistic and regional concerns than depicted in this book. I found reading this book quite a waste of time."
234222,1,Terrible for countertops,"This is a terrible product for countertops. Did not deter my cat one bit from climbing all over the counters - I saw her walking around on them like it's nothing. Worst part is that after the thing failed to do any good I spent the better part of an afternoon scraping sticky residue from all my countertops - these strips do NOT come off clean, at least from the average grade kitchen counter surface. Tried a number of kitchen cleaners and they're still sticky. Can't say how well this works / how easy to remove on other surfaces, but for countertops, it was no good for my cat. If you still want to give it a try (cats are pretty different when it comes to this kind of thing) I would suggest covering the counters with tin foil first and putting the strips on the tin foil. That's what I wish I would've done (other than not shelling out ** bucks for this in the first place)."
234292,1,Very Poor,"There is almost nothing to commend this book. There are only 40 recipes (excluding the 7 recipes for dipping sauces) and none of them are very good in my opinion. There are illustrations for each recipe, which is usually a plus, but in this case even the pictures were not very appetizing for the most part. I found very little in the book that looked much like anything one would find at a dim sum restaurant and there are too many recipes which recommend store bought won-ton wrappers even for steamed items. Quite frankly, it strikes me that the author has perused a few cookery books and thrown together this production without any real understanding of, or expertise in this particular style of cuisine."
234299,1,You got to be kidding me...,The information in this book is basic. I could feel my romance IQ dropping as I thumbed through.
234352,1,Don't bother!,"Like others, I bought these to replace the old clippers I bought from Walmart a few years ago. This was my second attempt at purchasing new clippers and was very disappointed. They can't cut my poodle's fine hair, she flinches every time they touch her skin and the run very hot. Don't bother."
234428,1,Far too defused and general,"This book assumes too low a level knowledge. As a result a lot of time is spent laying ground work. Everything from OOA/OOD to database technology is covered. For a beginner, this may be appropriate; however, if you are looking for a focused discussion of application servers, look elsewhere."
234440,1,MediDyne calf stretcher,The item was smaller than I anticipated and because of it's small size it limits my ability to adequately stretch my calves. I wouldn't recommend this product for anyone medium sized or larger.
234458,1,Good for very basic information.,"This is a very basic beginners book. It is not well versed on disease and treatment. However, my 2 year old likes the photos!"
234550,1,How can a movie with such a great cast and acting be so emotionless and boring? I wish I knew why. I say C+,"""If you don't know how to take care of something you don't deserve to have it."" When Michael (Reynolds) comes home for his mother Lisa's (Roberts) graduation the family is rocked by a tragedy. The family is now forced to live together in close confines and old and new problems begin to come to the surface. This is a very difficult movie to review. The acting is amazing. Every single person does a fantastic job throughout. The story is a little overused but still is a great idea. The glaring problem is that there is absolutely no personal connection to the characters and that really hurts the movie. I don't think that that is the actor's fault but when these awful things happen it doesn't affect you the way it's meant to. Overall, a good movie that doesn't create the effect that it was supposed to. I give it a C+."
234575,1,The Lost Art of Towel Origami,I thought the instructions were vague. They don't give you towel size and/or detailed instructions. It seems like they skip a few steps. I could only do two out of the whole book and was disappointed in my purchase.
234667,1,pile of trash,"vicki stringer thinks she is all that, but she ain't got nothing but tall tales to tell. her stories are not only boring, they lack the authenticity and come off as trite and diva-ish. take my advise: you don't need to bother with this trash."
234687,1,"one-""hit"" wonder","This album is a typical example of a band who has one creative thought, releases a somewhat original and catchy single, but is unable to come up with anything else of any value. If you liked ""Sucked Out"", buy the single."
234755,1,WARNING: RENT BEFORE BUY I REPEAT RENT BEFOE BUY!!!!,"When I first rented the game I was happy. I thought Simpsons great material, how wrong I was. To first start off the graphics are extremely poor. They looked like Sega Gen. graphics. The vision is very fuzzy (or it could be my TV). Next the game play is poor too, the way you move on the screen, you don't have good attacks in the game, and the buttons. The characters are another issue. The voices are okay at best. When they do their ""taunt"" the sayings are really dumb. The weapons each character has is so dumb. It's nothing like the Simpons on TV! There is more but for now I have gave you a sample, I'll make you the judge of the rest. You might like but what I have to say is RENT THE GAME FIRST!!!!!"
234827,1,A rich white man's manual to living the proper Republican life.,"It is easy for the mother to stay at home and raise the children when there is half a million dollars in the checking account. This book is surely a good read for the families that can afford to have two homes and a housekeeper. For the majority of American families, the Senator's book is an utter waste of time. More like a work of fiction, if you ask me."
234876,1,Piece of trash--dead after 3 months,"My MP3 shorted out for good this morning--after 3 whole months. It never worked well--it always took 3-4 tries to get started. I found it extrememly frustrating to have to stop and start a run several times to get the thing going. I had to change the batteries every several runs--at 1 hour per run, this translates into one battery every 2-3 hours."
234935,1,Cheap Chinese plastic junk.,This is an other example of cheap Chinese plastic junk passed as a useful item. It is particularly sad that such rip off is perpetrated on those who can not see well.
234986,1,A total disappointment,"The characters in this book were more like super characters (they could & would do anything). The Mother was suppose to be moral but in the end did something so out of character it was unbelievable. The main character's decisions were poor considering the author wanted you to believe she was young and smart. Also, the editing of the book was horrible. Missed spelled words and poor sentence structure. Save your money."
235110,1,How to take good stuff and make a mess,"Ok, I am a hardcore fan who has a lot of bootleg but I had the box set before having all the bootlegs that I have and when i first listened to it, I figured I should have concentrated on bootlegs rather than on this pitiful box set. Some songs cut and pasted without any order, all the world pacific demos all separated, some great left overs such as You Need Meat. The pretty useless band favorites containing song that you already have. The Rock is Dead session incomplete missing important stuff such as Love Me Tender and Queen of the Magazines. Worst of all, the Live in New York disc containing songs from 4 different concerts, all re-arranged and some, recorded somewhere else such as Gloria. Really, Jim would be pretty ashamed of his former fellows."
235139,1,So-So Music,"This album's just OK. I got it as a gift and I had never heard of Alana Davis before. She has a couple decent songs, but nothing special. I don't know why all these reviews rave about her music. I'm confused. I wouldn't recommend buying this new so get a friend to burn you a copy."
235177,1,Book? Not Hardly! Booklet at best,"Being a huge David Muench fan prompted me to buy this oversize pamphlet sight unseen,,,at 5 bucks plus shipping it was a waste of money,,about 10 pages of cheap stock and a few unimpressive color pics,,,,I see it is listed at 100 dollars if new,,,,can only say HAH! caveat emptor"
235230,1,Not satisfied,I didn't like the way these tasted. They have an artificial aftertaste. I also think an artificially flavored frosting with sprinkles of artificial dye is not a healthy choice for children (and it even doesn't make the tarts taste better). I'm eating them all so my toddler won't have to!
235231,1,Save your money for something better,Very simply...not interesting to any kids I know. My child would rather use the car as a teether than play with the set. We gave it to our child for Christmas and it's the only toy that has gotten zero playtime. There arer much better toys out there!
235247,1,"Garden Time Organic Semolina Manicotti, 7.5-Ounce Units (Pack of 12)",I was looking forward to the opportunity of purchasing Organic Manicotti Shells but unfortunately found they would split down the middle when filling. My experience wasn't successful--Not sure if it is the manicotti or the cook -- I am going to try again and shorten the cook time to see if there is an improvement.
235289,1,"Heavy, hot, short cord, and how do you get the blade out?","I bought this saw today, used it once (""hot and heavy,"" not in a good way) and...now the blade won't come out (yes, the blade lock is off). I shall return it tomorrow!"
235472,1,Ok Singer,"I listen to a whole lot of French albums from many talented French artists. I'm not sure how i came across Carla Bruni. I listened to her album, and personally, i didn't get anything out of this. She has a lovely voice, but it's nothing special, and sometimes I felt that it gets bland after the first few songs. And the music itself is just too dull. Don't assume that jazz is not my taste, i love jazz/blues music, but this to me was just dull for the most part."
235475,1,YIKES! Is this guy really a lawyer?,What a bunch of trite nonsense. Save yourself the (the price) and watch the OReilly factor or listen to Rush Limbaugh if you only have a radio. They both have more depth. (...) My bird loves it though.
235549,1,"Dont waste your money, wait till Apple gets it right.","Like a fool I bought leopard as soon as it came out and installed it on my 24"" iMac that I use for work. The first install crashed and wiped out my system, so much for an archive and install. Had to do a fresh install.Fresh install went well, reinstalled my apps and started using the computer. Things seemed okay till I finished a video in F/C and wanted to make a DVD out of it. The system would not recognize any blank dvds (though tiger never had a problem).Called Apple support, they had me wipe and reinstall and try burning a disc before I installed any apps. Same thing would not work. Since I use this machine for my video work, I had to reinstall tiger which works perfectly.I am waiting till the middle of next year then I will reinstall leopard and patches and see how it goes."
235716,1,Self-Discharge rate excessive,"I have purchased close to 80 of these batteries, and found that about 1 out of every 4 had a bad discharge rate. I would charge them in sets of four, let them site for one week, then put them on a tester to see which ones were bad. I found that they normally show about 1.29V-1.30V after sitting a week, but the bad ones show about .95V. I am not at all happy with the 2500 MAh batteries, however, I was happy with Energizer's previous 2200 and 2300 MAh versions."
235734,1,Not much use if it doesn't work,"Wireless is a cool feature, very convenient. The weight is good, grip is nice and firm, but the whole thing is not particularly ergonomic, though -- kinda awkward to hold with the other hand while you're playing. Real problem, though: this thing isn't built to last. At all. After a few months, it starts losing calibration, floating all over the place, with the twist function failing to neutralize -- rendering the joystick useless. You can't recalibrate it, and there's zero support from logitech, so suddenly the relative bargain starts looking like less of a good deal. Not getting a replacement -- check out some of the other brands out there."
235742,1,Kinda cute but....,"Many of the ideas are little more than old spouse's tales. Regarding some of the pest control methods, please see this paper: http://digitalcommons.unl.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1030&context=vpc14"
235760,1,"Good product, HORRIBLE tech support","Good product, neat, small, useful. TERRIBLE HORRIBLE tech support. Long waits while techie looks up the simplest of questions. They're totally unprepared for the job. And I was given simply incorrect information which I had to wade through with more calls even to find out it was incorrect. If you're not a natural techie, expect a horrible experience with their tech support."
235786,1,"Poor Quality, Beautiful Ballerina","If I had know the recording quality of this performance was so poor I wouldn't have order it. Bad camera Production, out of focus at times, and unnecessary close-ups of the dancers.Save the Close-ups for the Bonus features not the actual performance."
235792,1,Literal Garbage,"I bought this camera approximately 2 months ago. After much use, I found this product to be literal garbage; as if someone had literally packaged a piece of garbage and sent it to me. The refresh rate on the LCD is horrible, not even worth using. Sometimes to get the LCD screen to work it is necessary to bang on the side of the camera. The viewfinder is blocked by an annoying green light and is off by a few millimeters. The supplied AA's last only about 15 to 20 mins. If you are unfortunate enough to buy this camera, get rechargeables. The picture quality is horrid at best, pictures turning out grainy and pixelated. Overall, buying a disposable 35mm is a better choice."
235814,1,,I ordered a 12 foot cable and I received a 10 foot cable instead. I am very disappointed with this order.
235818,1,Poor Quality Cable - Better Off Spending More,"I'm not an expert but the problem may come down to how much surrounding interference you've got that's likely to effect a cheap cable that's not adequately shielded. I ran mine through a rat's nest of power cords for four machines with audio and external drive cables in there as well. I've also got two pairs of fairly heavy Altec Lansing speakers alongside the monitor.The resulting signal was seriously ghosted to the point where it bothered my eyes after a couple of hours.To compare, I brought home a VGA cable from work and was shocked at the difference running along the same path. Not only is the picture crisp but the colors are richer.I wish I could recommend the cable from work but I've no idea who makes it - we're a Dell shop and it's got those blue plugs that look like the cables that ship with Dells."
235822,1,didnt work,"didnt work for connecting my laptop to my 32 inch tv, and there was some kind of buzzing on the tv, anyway it worked OK for my 19 inch monitor, but it still has some flaws with the monitor, had to buy a insulated grounded vga for the tv, that one works great. i still have to buy another vga cause this one sucks"
235825,1,Wrong Cable!!!,Just when I needed to use this cable I learn that it is not the cable I ordered. It is a male-female and I ordered a male-male cable. Probably way too late to return it.
235839,1,Blackburn Quadrant Bicycke Light,Th light works well. However it is not bright enough for night riding. This light is more suited to being a safety feature to allow others to see you rather than to illuminate the road ahead . You would be much better off with a halogen bicycle light which would provide much better illumination.
235860,1,Bad Ball Marker,This product is horrible. Instructions were bad and functionality was worse. My father had a better one 35yrs ago!Tried to return and got the run-around. Have since tossed it out and taken the 30 dollar loss.
235877,1,BEWARE - incentivized reviews!,"I purchased this watch for myself on a lightning deal last year. I got a nice price for a very nice watch -- or so I thought.The watch came with a review incentive on a slip of paper included in the box -- a $10 gift for an amazon review within 20 days of purchasing. If I'd left my review within the 20 day period I'd probably have left a pretty positive review. The watch was attractive, and I loved watching the exposed works in action.However, after a few months of careful daily wear the rose gold color wore away on the bezel exposing the stainless steel base metal. I was so disgusted that I gave it to my 10 year old daughter. I'll never buy Stuhrling again."
235886,1,This is not a piano book,"I queried piano music for kids. This is really just a BABY BOOK with 2 words per page that happens to be only the words for one single song and the only sheet music is for that SINGLE SONG on the very LAST page. NOT for kids learning to play piano, but really just a sing-a-long book for babies. Seems like a lot of money for just one song even so! I was expecting several John Denver songs in piano sheet music with pictures intertwined after reading the descprition and it was nothing like that."
235903,1,Side Effects suck,"I started this product three days ago. It makes me feel full all the time! Which is great! It also gives me energy to make it through the day! And also through the night... I've slept 5 hours in the last 48 hours and I'm still wide awake. And I am not in any way an insomniac. It also gives me the jitters so bad I start shaking. I love the appetite suppressant part, but sleep is really sounding good right now."
235995,1,"spend a few more bucks and get the leatherman micra, its worth it","I recently had my Leatherman Micra confiscated at the airport (forgot to put it in my checked luggage and they don't allow such things as carry-on items anymore!), so I headed to target to purchase a replacement Micra as I use it frequently at work.I saw the Gerber shortcut at almost half the price and had heard Gerber made a good multitool, so I gave it a shot.Bad idea! The scissors especially is much weaker and has a lot of trouble cutting through things the micra just tore through. Especially plastic loading straps. The gerber scissors 'bounce' off the loading straps more often than not, and often get dislocated trying to make a cut. Whereas the Leatherman micra could often cut two at a time.This one LOOKS cooler, but does not handle the same workload. Decide what is more important to you."

236067,1,Hope for better...,I'm hoping there is a much better dvd of Barry out there. This was seems like it was almost like a rehearal show. I was rather disappointed in this show.
236073,1,Shame,"This DVD just has to be one of the most lazy recent music compilations released.The videos: The omission of Sex Crime and Julia may be explained due to contractual issues, the songs being released on Virgin. Still, that was not a problem a few years back when the original compilation was released, Shame. There are additionally so many other songs missing (not a single one from We Two Are One), Shame.Sound: I thought my system had broken down. There is no surround sound here folks. Actually, it is muffled and seems to be concentrated on the central speaker, Shame.Footage transfer: It's alright, but could have been better, Shame.Other features: There aren't any, Shame.The content itself has stood the test of time, both musically and visually. As a product, however, this is a major let down. Did I mention that there is no Shame?"
236090,1,bad latin rhythms but USA aerobic steps,This is a joke workout. We do not recommend you buy it.A Latin rhythm workout. Ok maybe it has some really bad latin rhythms but the workout is a pure USA aerobic workout. Justbecouse you name some USA aerobic steps with latin dance names does not make it a latin dance workout.This video is a real disappointment.The aerobic workout itself is a very good length. But do not think it has anything really to do with latin dance.Vanessa's Afro Brazilian Dance Workout with Vanessa Isaac has much more latin steps in it.
236130,1,"Good, if you really know Japanese culture.","Unless your familiar with Japanese funerals, or are very culture curious then you will not like this movie. The film is billed as a comedy but really only Japanese (or people who have experience with Japan) can really understand the sarcastic look at typical Japanese funeral. Although I can appreciate Juzo Itami's work, I had a hard time watching this movie to the end. If you really want to know what a Japanese funeral is like in a long, drawn out manner, then give it a try. Once was enough for me.The way this dvd was transferred is truly horrible. Fox/Lorber are well known for doing things as cheaply as possible. Burned in subtitles which sometimes get cut off by the screen, bad translation, English grammar mistakes and poor color control are Fox/Lorber's trademarks. Too bad they just dont care anything about quality."
236144,1,This pad is absolute trash.,"I purchased this pad for my girlfriend and I so that we could play DDR without having to buy those flimsy cheapo pads. We were just begginers when we got this pad, and it was already displaying a huge amount of problems.Personaly I play on medium, and she plays on light. Withen not even a week of using this pad the left arrow sensor has literally shifted to the middle of the pad. There is NO WAY to fix this problem. I repeat, IT COULD NOT BE FIXED!So basically we paid $100 for a very expensive door mat. I have no idea why people have recommended this product, or why it has gotten so many great reviews. But you've been officially warned!(Also the same dilemma is now happening to the down arrow sensor, we are using the foam and we are folding the pad properly and taking good care of it. But for the safety of your wallet shop for something that is actually worth the money.)"
236169,1,Too hard to navigate kindle version,"'The Message' is a great compliment to standard translations, but the Kindle version is not user friendly. The table of contents or search function does not allow you to go to an individual book for the purpose of study. Other Kindle versions of the Bible (like the NASB) have this feature, so I'm not sure why 'The Message' is set up differently. I returned this version and purchased 'The Message 2.0' thinking it was an upgrade, but still no ability to select an individual book (like Philippians). You just have to guess at page numbers until you get close."
236191,1,Like them until they crack,"I have four of these in graduated sizes. They are easy to read and pour very well, and they nest for storage. However, eventually they have all cracked at the bottom, as another reviewer wrote. I even replaced one and thought by never using it for hot liquids that might help, and top rack washing in the dishwasher. No such luck, cracked again, and then they leak. And I am afraid to use them in the microwave because they are plastic. A great idea, but seriously flawed."
236223,1,Don't even bother,"People can say all they want about 'erotic fantasy"" and ""opens your mind"" etc. but in my opinion (and the opinion of the 7 people in my book club) this book was not worth the read. I am very open sexually and very little offends me, but this just seemed to be an exercise in shock-factor rather that any real story or character development. There is nothing sexy about grossly mistreating women and that is essentially what many of the ""sexual"" scenes are about."
236257,1,Suburban fantasy,"This is the kind of writing that is viewed as exciting and profound only by women who live in the suburbs and view the world through that isolated lens. That said, I haven't read the book, but the excerpt was not good. It seems a typical pulpy romance novel so I suppose if you like that kind of stuff..."
236456,1,Sima quick connect,"This item is functional, barely. It's OK for use with a lightweight camera and standard lens in horizontal position only. With a longer lens and/or vertical position this plastic unit feels underbuilt with a sagging problem in the vertical position. Spend a few bucks and get an all-metal Bogen product, you'll be happier."
236513,1,A shame,"As a recent undergraduate with a BA in Literature AND an African-American female AND aspiring author, it is sad to see that the ""bestsellers"" in the black communities only seem to be those books, such as this one, which perpetuate the myths that blacks think of nothing but screwing and having a good time. Whatever happened to REAL literature? Here's a suggestion to all of you young ""urbanites"" who think that work of this caliber--of the men-do-this-women-are-like-that design is real literature: try Toni Morrison or Alice Walker or, heaven forbid--Carter G. Woodson, a man who can AT THE VERY LEAST explain why you appreciate such shallow drivel that is beneath your mode of thinking AND portrays you in a negative light. You don't HAVE to gravitate towards a stereotypical prosaic genere that portrays blacks as oversexed and underlearned. For shame..."
236518,1,Really bad product! Don't waste your money on this.,"So this is the highest rated for pizza stones? I bought because of the rave reviews and reasonable price. It seemed to work well at first - nich & heavy, seemed good quality and it held up for a few months of regular use - then came the peeling. Yes, there is a coating that peels off and leave little black chips in your food. Of course it is now too late to return. Do yourself a favor and buy something else."
236538,1,useless - throw away your money,This product does not help plantar faciitis. There is no cushioning and the sides of the cup easily roll under your heel.You might as well stuff your money into your shoe. Then at least you would still have your money. The only WONDER of this product is that it is being manufactured and offered as a solution for anything. Total JUNK.
236544,1,have my doubts if this is real shea butter,"After opening the sealed plastic package I noticed a strong smell, not a bad smell, but very different from the other 4x more expensive shea butters I have tried. It's smells a lot like cocoa butter and it's greasier too. I kind of found this suspicious and went online to read about how shea butter can smell/feel and look like. Then I learned about the Kpangan butter. The Kpangan butter smells like cocoa butter, is oily on the skin and is yellow. All of this matched the product I received at home as ""Shea Butter"". Real Shea Butter does not smell like cocoa, it's actually almost smell free. Also real shea butter does not feel greasy on the skin. Shea butter can have a yellowish tone but what I got is mustard yellow. Either the seller doesn't know what he/she sells or...Yet again, cheaper is NOT better. I am going back to the 4x more times expensive, certified and real Shea butter."
236583,1,Not a good by at all,I ordered this item from this company and did not received all that was promised. It said that it had a charger and there was none and a case and they did not send any. I do not recommend this company or this item.
236590,1,Rather weak,"This is the first book I came across on the subject, and bought, but disappointment lead me to search further and then I found two good alternatives. This book has several problems. Some pages are simply filled with useless information, referenced addresses do not appear to have been researched and most are useless or do not exist at all. On top of all this, you feel bitter because you get very little for what you have paid and you end up by not trusting anything in the book. With Holtom's Working and living: Portugal and another one, Live and work in Spain and Portugal, by Pybus and White, you get better value for money."
236725,1,What a disappointment,"With stars like Meryl Streep, Tommy Lee Jones and Steve Carrell I thought this was a sure entertainment pleaser. How wrong I was. It was not funny. It was not engaging. I couldn't wait for it to end. It is in my trash can right now."
236728,1,"If you think sex cures everything, even for old marriages, this movie is for you","As charming as these actors are, and they are engaging, the script feels like it was written by a young person who thinks all relationships succeed or fail based on how much sex everyone is having. (Maybe that's true, but I'm sick of those story-lines). There's a fair amount of Hollywood drivel in this movie. I had assumed these actors would have enough clout to do a realistic movie about marriage at that age. Either they don't have that clout or, in real life, they are not nearly as deep as we like to think them. My guess is this movie died by a thousand cuts of compromise and integrity."
236748,1,Painful Movie,"I am so glad I did not pay for this movie. It was sad, and painful, and uncomfortable, and... not good. My husband and I were very disappointed."
236785,1,"Great song, lousy remixes - Very disappointing","""Dream On"" has so much potential for a decent remix. The vocals, the guitar, the bass. Instead what we get are some really boring drum beats with cliche processed loops of the song. Sounds like something I would hear in a club with mediocre DJ. Too bad, since so much could be done with this song."
236789,1,"Does not capture the mood or characters of ""Eddie's Bastard""","I was disappointed with this sequel. It covers Billy's quest to find his mother. The plot was very contrived and just didn't ring true to me for some reason.Billy ends up in Santa Fe to look for the mother who abandoned him. He meets Consuelo, a singer and they fall in love. Billy locates his mother, but the woman he has created in his mind, can she meet his expectations?? I thought the love story was a bit simple, as was the ending.Kowalski would have had to do a smash up job with a sequel to top ""Eddie's Bastard"". He did not succeed, but I will likely read more of his work in the future, since sequels are usually a letdown in most cases. I didn't hate the book, or the plot, but it left me empty, therefore I give this book 2/5 stars."
236816,1,Palm V,The shipping and receiving of the Palm was adequate. However the back light didn't function. I e mailed the seller about the problem but never received a reply.
236819,1,My Experience So Far; UPDATED,"The composter I purchased from Gaiam arrived incomplete; in fact it was missing several pieces. I contacted the manufacturer of this unit (not Gaiam) and no one returned my call. I then followed Gaiam's return intructions, which were fairly clear but which cost me $35 FedEx to return. I later received an email from Gaiam explaining that they received the composter and that a new one would be coming to me in December. Apparently they were out of them at that time (11/13/2008).UPDATE: the new composter arived on December 1, earlier than promised. The unit is in fine condition and complete. I am very satisfied with it, as well as Gaiam's quick response to this problem."
236826,1,Disappointing,"I was unable to play this DVD because it said that it could only play in region 2 or 4. The USA is region 1, so some how I ordered the wrong DVD. I didn't try to play it until I'd had it over 30 days so I asked for the DVD made for USA. I asked after the 30 day deadline,so gave up. If you could ever get this for viewing in the USA, it is a very sweet story. I have it in VHS."
236847,1,Biggest mistake I've ever made,"The HP B8350 has been the worst purchase I have ever made. The printer won't print anything other than a windows test page or a normal to draft quality print on small paper. I have 6 computers and not one of them can successfully print to this printer. Lights flash, paper spits out but no matter how long I wait I never get a print out bigger than 8-1/2x11 at normal or lower resolution. The HP website promises a full featured driver update for Vista in early 2007 but that has never come. HP has blown it with this piece of hardware. Back to Epson for large format printing I guess."
236850,1,Irish crime,This book is a waste of time. The Winter Hill Mob is an intersesting reality but this seems to about some cop and his peculiar involvement.
236917,1,Defective DVI connector.,"Only good thing I can say is thank goodness for Amazon's return policy and service.First of all, the cable wasn't as the pictures show. It was a 10' (as opposed to a 6') with a thick blue colored braid with white stripes. Although I didn't want the extra length, that wasn't my problem with it. The DVI connector was defective to the point that it wouldn't slide all the way in. It was so far out that the screws couldn't even reach the mating connector threads. Upon visual inspection right next to another DVI cable, you could see that the pins were not properly centered. What kind of QC is that? Did they even try to mate it?"
236928,1,An arrogant collection of repetitions,"As a business school graduate student, I have read a significant amount of strategy books and articles. This book is just an arrogant collection of repetitions. It does not provide any new insights."
236981,1,horrible,i could not get into this book. it was depressing. i forced myself to finish it and it was a pleasure to be done with it...dont waste your time
236990,1,"Trashy Book, Impossible Story, Written by a Man","It was a fast read. And it's a good thing, because otherwise I would not have given it the time of day. I picked it up expecting a good story and good literature because so many people rave about how great they think this book is, but I was very dissapointed. First of all, it is written in a way that can potentially convince you it's a possible story. It is diary-style and mentions T.V shows and other books, just like a real diary would. But the story and characters are just too impossible. Yes, life can be tough, but an unrellenting assault of bad fortune, as happens to Dolores just doesn't happen in real life. And, I know people that have lived through being raped and dealing with parents deaths without all the emotional damage that afflicts Dolores. The symbolism in this novel was also a joke. Every time a whale was mentioned I actually laughed out loud, could you get any more cliche?"
237027,1,Very SPICY...,THESE LITTLE COOKIES ARE VERY SPICY.SO IF YOU LIKE VERY SPICY THINGS YOU WILL LOVE THESE.FOR ME I AM NOT ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE.........
237069,1,bad movie,"Heard this was a good movie, so ordered it. Very bad movie - do not recommend it to anyone at all!"
237080,1,Buy something else - NOT this!,You cannot add 3-hole punched pages of other things in with the CDs because the binder rings are non-standard so nothing else will fit. You also cannot use these binder refills in a standard 3-hole that other things will fit into because they have deliberately cut off the inside corners so you cannot punch holes that will fit a standard 3-ring binder.This outfit has made both the binder and the refills non-standard with tricks so you can't use them anywhere but with each other - obviously trying to be proprietary to force you to buy both all the time.I resent this kind of manipulation and strongly recommend a different brand that sticks to standard universal 3-ring binder spacing.
237114,1,Disappointing toy,"I bought this product for my 18 month old child. Everytime that the ball was thrown at the hoop, the hoop would fall off. This caused my child to say ""oh oh"" as if they had done something wrong. I had to return the toy after only three days since my child would not play with it. I understand the safety concerns posed by a fixed hoop for a young child, however, a hoop that does not stay in place is also quite disappointing to a child.thank you."
237213,1,It didn't help me solve my dilemma,"I needed ideas for hair how to-s and they advertised there were some, but there weren't"
237222,1,Looks cheap,"I ordered this toy for my 11 month old daughter. Before I ordered it I read all of the reviews and it seemed that it would be a great toy. UPS delivered the toy today and I am truly disappointed! It looks like a cheap, plastic box. My co-workers and I seem to think it's a rip off, compared to the other gifts I've purchased. I THINK I am going to give it to my daughter to play with because it seems that children really enjoy the toy, but it CERTAINLY looks like a cheap toy that was not worth the time, energy or money I spent."
237250,1,Not as pictured,"The product shown is not the product I received. I'd had a 72214 for several years. When it wore out I wanted to replace it. The mouse I received looked similar, but was NOT a four button programable mouse like the original (pictured above)."
237272,1,Egg Cooker,"This egg cooker has too many variables.....to get close to a perfect egg you have to take into consideration the size of the egg, how much water you put in the cooker, whether the water is warm or cold. Too much work for just eggs. Easier to put it in a pan on the stove."
237275,1,It lasted about two months,"I do not give 1-star reviews lightly. After reading the amazon reviews I decided to purchase this item, since my wife wanted to try a diet that included hard boiled eggs most every morning. We received our item on 9/26/07, and used it approximately 4-5 times per week. This morning, 12/4/07, I noticed an odd smell and some popping sounds, and sure enough, the lid had melted into the base. I'm not entirely sure what caused this to happen, but I'm a bit upset about the product lasting all of two months and my house smelling like burned plastic.*UPDATE* The oster customer service was exceptional in replacing the melted lid, and for some reason I never had the problem again. I wonder if perhaps a bit of raw egg had somehow gotten onto the sensor and caused it to heat for too long. It has been over a year since the incident."
237291,1,Not worth it. - DON'T BUY!!!!,"I bought this at Target to replace my other Oster blender which lasted a year before the motor fried up. I sauteed veggies and chopped liver in red wine for pate. The food that went into the blender was actually softer than the average fruit and ice for a smoothie.This was my FIRST time using the blender since I purchased it last week. Halfway through pureeing the soft veggie and chopped liver (the liver was crumbled and smaller than sesame seeds), the motor started smoking. Then, the base lit up like a lightning storm and it died. I had to mix softened ghee (clarified butter) which was almost liquid with a wooden spoon in a bowl to complete my pate.Had I been blending ice or hard veggies such as raw celery or carrots, I could understand (although the manual claims that the blender can grind nuts without a problem)... but cooked, soft veggies with a bit of liquid? Come on!!! Totally NOT WORTH my money.I am going to return the blender tomorrow and look for a better one."
237356,1,PT-BC-C Cartridge,This cartridge evidently is not compatible to my BJC-250 Printeras it only prints in small print and only 1/2 the page. Cannot use it
237386,1,I received the wrong filters.,"Received basic white instead of the brown filters I ordered. Your program insist I give it a star in order to move on, so the one star is not deserved.Eleanor"
237539,1,Stopped working after a few uses,"This is the worst blender I have ever used. It completely died after just a few uses, and I was only making ordinary smoothies. Since I used it so infrequently, it's been more than 6 months and the warranty is expired."
237546,1,Pay twelve dollars for two dollars worth of wood,"Oh boy. Did I ever get taken with this. I opened the box and out came tumbling an assorted quantity of wooden dowels, frame sticks and cheap screws. Well, I bought it so I might as well put it together. The result is a cheap ""pasta dryer"" made of cheap wood. You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear, as they say and you can't make a good product out of wood that looks like it is made from scrap wood. This pasta dryer is flimsy and cheap. Hanging pasta on it is a pain and the wood screws start to rust. I'll be using this stupid thing as firewood for the winter. This product should be taken off Amazon. It is a sham."
237650,1,Threw this away last week,"We only used this to boil water. I guess we weren't careful enough with it, because almost immediatley it started getting rust around the edge of the heating element. It would wipe off, but then rust started developing all over the heating element."
237696,1,short lived,"Worked great for six months, then the motor started burning up and I could smell it very strongly. We only use it for slicing bread and I expected it to last much longer."
237697,1,Too hot to handle!!,"The blades are nice and sharp, but this knife weighs a ton - not good, since you have to hold down the ""on"" switch the whole time. But worse than that was the overheating. The unit got HOT after slicing up only half a loaf of biscotti. If it can't take that, how on earth would it make it through a whole turkey?!Next time I'll lay out more cash for a knife that can actually handle a little work."
237712,1,bummer,Have had two of these openers and both lasted less than a year and then would not open cans No where to repair them Harmon Wall
237729,1,One for the Bargain Bin,"I loved The Lion King so of course I had to get this. I knew it wouldn't be as good, but watching it, it turned out to be a lot worse than I imagined... the songs were TERRIBLE, and the storyline was UNORIGINAL...why did Disney bother?? I wouldn't reccommend this, even if The Lion King is your fave movie."
237739,1,don't waste your time with this one......,This is a horrible geometry book. It is not good at explaining the proofs. Don't waste your time with this book.
237803,1,Aggravation,"If I could have gotten the batteries to stay in the buster, it might have worked...cheap...have had better busters in the past. Pretty dissapointed."
237830,1,Source Code made me lose brain cells,"Do yourself a favor and don't watch it. Bad acting, no plot, predictable and just terrible. Whoever wrote the script and directed this movie needs to get fired."
237858,1,Good while it lasted,"This burner died after less than a month of (admittedly heavy) use. It worked fine one morning and later that day when I tried to turn it on, nothing happened.It was great when it was working, though."
237924,1,This is a product from 1987. Do you have a Mac Plus?,I bought this without realizing what I was getting. This is a product from 1987 and won't work on a Mac OS older than about 1990. I feel I've been taken....but I'm sure I have no legal recourse.
237978,1,Junk product,"This is an inferior product. I mean really inferior. Irregular, dusty chips. Dirty fingerprints; they seemed manually packed in very bad conditions. Cheap aluminium case. *Do not* make this a present to anyone, it will be an embarrassment. While the seller refunded me for the product, I didn't get a refund for shipping -- which is more than half of the product cost.I wish I can recommend you where to go for a good chip set. Tried other vendors and got the same kind of junk. I suspect most those chips come from a common source. Some companies sent me samples; then when the order arrived nothing looked like the samples. I was duped."
238092,1,SHORT SWEET AND TO THE POINT,TALK ABOUT HAVING THE STARS AND WANTING THE MOON!WHAT A TOTAL AND ABSOLUTE MESS! STICK WITH SEASONS 1 AND 2.IS THIS SEASON THE RESULT OF MURDER OR SUICIDE?
238097,1,"disappointed; no DC-in jack, avg. recording quality, cannot upload from PC","This is the top-of-the-line recorder and I was a little disappointed.Pros:sufficient recording time (havent tested that).Cons:1. I am very surprised that they forgot to add a DC-in jack, which means you must always use AAA batteries even when near a power supply! A DC-input jack is a given on all electronic items!!2. avg. recording quality. Mono recording with some echo when recording lectures.3. One of the adverts clearly said transfer to/from PC. I was surprised to find the manual says otherwise. You cannot upload from PC to recorder. Was it too difficult to implement?"
238175,1,It sounded promising...,"I really wanted to like this book and I probably would have if Corisande Easton had not been such an unpleasant heroine. She was a miserable character and I kept hoping she'd change. If she did, it wasn't quickly enough for me. I put it down about three-quarters of the way through."
238221,1,Disappointing,It worked great for exactly four uses! Then it stopped working for no apparent reason. I may try to get a replacement and try again.
238238,1,Don't waste your $$$$...,"The cover is hard plastic in the front and aluminum in the back but only held together by two rubber side inserts. The first night I brought it to the gym and dropped my player, the case came off and shattered on impact. I had it for a record of 2 days before I had to throw it out.. What's the point???????"
238327,1,DISAPPOINTING!!!,Yes... VERY DISAPPOINTING!!! Can't think WHY it was ever banned ?!!! Don't bother! Wish I'd saved my money so don't waste yours!
238328,1,totally disappointed,"I agreed with 'a reader from Richmond.' This book stunk! I found Lute to be a totally obnoxious man with very few redeeming qualities. After enjoying books by Garlock such as The Listening Sky (my favorite), The Edge of Town, and With Hope, I was totally disappointed with the plot, the characters, and the overall plot of this book. If you've never read a Dorothy Garlock book, don't start with this one. Read one of the ones I mentioned and you'll be a Garlock fan. If you read this book first, you'll probably never read another one of her books and you'll miss out on some wonderful historical romances."
238374,1,Shipping is horrid,"I ordered this book paying extra for overnight shipping, because my next class was 4 days away, and a week later, the book is still not here, along with the estimated shipping date being another week away.I've called Amazon and they said it was in the hands of UPS now. I call UPS and they state it's a backlog from the holidays.If I pay for overnight shipping, which is quite expensive, I expect it to be here in at least 3 days. The book was ordered before the holidays, and honestly, I wouldn't mind if my book were to be backlogged one or two days, but it's taking two weeks now and I'm falling behind in class.I should have paid the $250 at my local bookstore and gotten it the day before class. I guess I won't order from Amazon again."
238405,1,Pass on this one!,This book is wordy and confusing. The questions at the end of each chapter could only be answered if you have experience with operaing systems and computers. This is not a beginners book. It is probably a fine graduate level book or a an adv. operating systems book in undergraduate. BUT NOT A FIRST COURSE IN OPERATING SYSTEMS.
238485,1,"My 8 year old liked it, for about a day","I picked this up because I figured - heck a controller and you get a game for about 10 bucks more. Well, maybe I should have thought twice and just purchased the controll and nunchuck combo because the game held my 8 year olds attention for about 1 day total. He did play it through all of the levels to the tanks, which he did really like. But with games like Lego Star Wars for only $20 I would have been much better off to get the combo and another game and skip the wii play."
238486,1,Only if you need another remote,"After playing sports resort where the games are a lot more fun and graphics more presentable, wii play just isn't up to par. I bought this because I needed another remote and since a remote costs $36 (nintendo) or $30 (nyko), I guess to pay a little more for a remote + game may be a better deal. Like many other reviewers have said, it's like a buying a remote for $30 and $10 for the game.However, not all the games are bad. I like the pool game. The shooting game is simple but passable. The cow game is also fun but pretty much for young kids. The tank game is ok. The rest is just plain silly.So if you need another remote, go ahead and get this. Otherwise pass on the games. Better off getting sports resort."
238518,1,Print head gone after 16 months,My mfc printer was not working ok since about a couple of months. Today when I call up Brother help line they say that the print head is gone and may have to replace it ($150) value! . I have not taken more than 300 prints in these 16 months . Not worth buying this machine.
238524,1,Dangerous Product for Pets!,"I've used the Nylabones for my dogs (Pugs) for a while now. I've always thought they were safe and that the little pieces that to break off were harmless to a dog. This was my impression from reading about them.I was almost dead wrong. I stress the 'almost' as $2,300 in vet bills later, my dog is recovering. She had 3 dime- to quarter-size chunks permanently lodged in her stomach that resulted in a blockage. A blockage that resulted in 4 days of vomiting bile and loosing 10% of her body weight.Be warned and stay away from this product."
238562,1,Good workout.,"I got this DVD yesterday, and watched it immediatly. Disk wasn't snaped on steady in a box, so it was shifting around during the transportation and got scratched. Also none of my two DVD players and two computers could play performance part of a program. But workout part was nice and pleasant to dance.Tanna Valentine are so good instructor and exellent dancer. If you will get a nondefective copy of this disk you will love it totally."
238645,1,Pew!,I bought these because I read the other reviews and one said the scent isn't strong. I think that person just likes perfumy things or we have a clogged nose issue.DO NOT BUY THESE IF YOU HAVE ALLERGIES AND DON'T USE PERFUMES!They are so strong smelling that as soon as I opened the box I was about bolled over. I had to chuck the box into my garage and I am sitting at my computer wondering how I will get the smell out of my house. I intend to call the company tomorrow and complain.I don't see how I can even use one sheet and I am stuck with 6 boxes!Sept. 26 update. I finally tried using them and the strong smell thankfully did not transfer to the clothes. Yey! I still have to store them in the garage though but I'll now give them a 2 instead of 1.
238649,1,Tyranny In The Ashes,"I first became acquainted with Mr. Johnstone's wonderful series four years ago when I discovered his first novel in a used book store. I have, over the years, managed to collect a copy of each succeeding novel in this series and until now have spent many a happy hour reading and re-reading the Ashes books. Until now!For some reason Mr. Johnstone has written a book that seems, to me, to be a feeble effort to keep the series going. Like many of his readers I am more than willing to put up with pages of flash backs to other novels, his political agenda (much of which I agree with) and his latent homophobia, IF the end result is a good read, which this, his latest effort, is not.I would much rather have waited another year and read another fine, cracking tale from Mr. Johnstone's pen than this drivel.A major disappointment and I sincerely hope that Mr. Johnstone will return to us the fine novels he writes so well."
238680,1,Broke witin a week.,"This yo-yo was awful. after the original friction stickers wore, i bought some more friction stickers from the duncan website. after putting on the new friction stickers, the string would slide off the ball bearing and i would have to keep taking it apart and putting the string on the ball bearing.DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!"
238705,1,No exercises at all,"I haven't actually read this book, but from just skimming it, I see that it contains no exercises at all. Without any exercises, it would be really hard to use this book for self study, and hope to retain the material. Based on the reviews, it looks like the better books available on the topic are ""Geometry, Topology and Physics"" by Nakahara, and ""The Geometry of Physics: An Introduction"" by Frankel."
238722,1,Junk,"I had to get a saw and my wife came back with this piece of junk.It will cut a plank in half, but should you need the cut to be 90 deg, forget it.Dont adjust the angle just bend the base back to 90 deg, it will bend out of true again, so why bother. Just throw it away. Junk.Thank you B and D for your waste of resources."
238731,1,"Way over-rated, better choices out there, first one defective","Bought this after reading the early ratings here and on Cnet. First one replaced under warranty, company was just OK to work with but a pain to return and cost me shipping. Have tried/tested NUMEROUS BT headsets. The ""environmental mode"" is a total gimmick and in my opinion - worthless. For the money, the Plantronics 510 can't be beat, if you don't mind the bulk or the Plantronics 925 if you don't mind sacrificing a little sound quality to get smaller size."
238755,1,Stay AWAY! or SUFFER!,"I wouldn't touch this game with a ten thousand foot pole. I'm mad because I wasted 3 bucks renting it. I want the three bucks back. I should get paid to play this game it is so bad. This game is terrible. I'm sure glad that I didn't buy it. There is no story, no graphics, no nothing. It isn't a game, it is a virus that has somehow seeped into the playstation 2 market and infested it with the bad smell of a terrible and ruthless boring plague. Don't even look at this game. Avoid it at all costs. Whoever made this should pay you to play this game. I'm serious. I wouldn't play this game if I found it on the street. I would destroy it. It is that bad. NES games are ten times better. So stay away from this game."
238872,1,ONLY 3 ITEMS WORKED!,"Nasal aspirator (which is amazing), nail clippers and brush... that's the only items that worked. At the middle of the night, my 3m-old baby had a fever.. thermometer never worked, I had to use the family's one. After confirming fever and a quick call to the nurse, had to give him some medicine... but using the syringe was a NIGHTMARE and a big mess with medicine leaking all over the baby and all over my hands!! WE ended up using a spoon (not the one in the kit, which shows ml by halves like 1 1/2, 2 1/2, 3 1/2 and so on.. and didn't want to guess where the 2ml mark was) I had to buy health care items separately. It was a little more expensive than the kit, but now I'm sure everything in the health care box works!"
238897,1,Very Bad,"I have boughten one of these and am not happy with it. It breaks easy and way to slow, it proves you get what you pay for."
238955,1,Bad Quality Control,It seems like it would be fun but it came with the launch track mis-aligned and the Bat mis-aligned. It is unplayable in this condition.
239017,1,Don't Waste Your Time and Money on This,"This movie is just not funny. It's not shocking, edgy, or offensive. It's just stupid. In the credits, it says something about the producers of ""There's Something About Mary"" ripping this movie off. Nothing in ""There's Something About Mary"" reminded me of this ""movie"" in the slightest. Maybe they stole the funny parts and didn't give them back, and that's why we're left with this unfunny non-movie. I'll admit that my sense of humor is very low-brow, immature, and childish, but I still didn't even laugh once. Not a chuckle. Not even a titter. There is no way that any human being could find this ""movie"" funny or entertaining in any way. Don't be deceived by the one star in my rating. It's not even worth one star, I just didn't have the option of picking anything lower. Don't make the same mistake I made. There's 1.5 hours of my life that I wasted and I'll never have back. Don't let it happen to you."
239103,1,One Line Review,They already made 3 TMNT movies. That should have been more than enough for everyone.
239132,1,"LIquid, not Grease","I was surprised when I opened this and saw that it is straight liquid, not a grease. Not sure if I can use it at all, I think I may use a rag and put some of this on it then rub it on the base of my elliptical... We'll see how that works out though. Would not buy again."
239136,1,Juvenile,"I""m really having a hard time getting into this game, maybe it's not for a 62 year old man who has lost all patience."
239169,1,broke - after two years of constant use,"Pro: Has that Porsche name on it.Con: Big deal - still looks rather unimpressive.Suggested use: backup??Actual use: how could anyone use this hard drive for back up when it's so unreliable! And slow, even under the best of times!Drive died after 2 years of infrequent use (only when I'm editing my home movies) or backing up my documents. While a recovery was possible, that kind of defeats the purpose of 'backup,' doesn't it?Second: slow. Often, it took about 10-15 minutes to move a 1 GB file (about twice what it took on another portable HD I've used).Conclusion: Avoid."
239225,1,Consultant-Buyer Beware!!,"This is not a technical reference by any means. My biggest complaint is the organization of the material...it is a hodge-podge of information, most of which is geared to the non-technical manager who may be trying to justify a purchase of PeopleSoft for integration purposes. Some chapters get more technical but are confusing, lack examples and useful diagrams. The whole book feels 'rushed', and the format is far from elegant. There are several grammatical errors and typos too. For fifty bucks, I'd spend my money elsewhere."
239229,1,"it's pronounced ""don't rip-off you previous album.""","i hate to be negative, especially about a very talented artist, but this album just sounded like he copied ""collaborations"" and just switched a few of the words. like ""47 pop stars"" it was just lame compared to the acappela ""47 m.c.'s"" from ""collaborations"" which was brilliant. there are a few good tracks, but i was dissapointed by the lack of creativity. hopefully K.J. will not try to follow what seemed to be a successful formula when he records his next album. COME ON K.J., I'VE HEARD YOU DO BETTER THAN THIS!"
239243,1,I don't get it. This was totally waste of money.,"I'm really disappointed with this video. the song style is like 60s to 80s that tots never understand the wits or anything. My daughter really loves to watch wiggles but not this one.It's really boring except Dr. knickerboker song. and Sam Moran... He really sings well but I miss Greg. Still, I don't get the picture of 4 wiggles without Greg.Anyway, don't buy this dvd."
239251,1,Watching paint dry would be more entertaining than anything Irwin Allen had anything to do with!,"What a talentless hack the man was. Unfortunately, he must have been part feline so that he would survive (professionally) to mount several other ""entertainment"" ventures ( Lost in Space, Time Tunnel, Land of The Giants) only to have them reflect the depth of his imagination and creativity."
239289,1,Not the typical erotic suspense film,"If you are looking for a hot Maria Ford suspense / softcore / erotic movie, than don't waste your time with this one. There is a plot - yes - and the movie tries hard to develop it. The movie also teases the viewer with some nice outfits for Maria - but this never translates into any real action - which is why 97.8% of us buy her movies."
239308,1,All about michael!!,He thinks he is some special person with the CIA always trying to recruit him. How do we know this is true?
239323,1,Didn't Last,"The Misto Gourmet Olive Oil Sprayer spayed well for a few months. Then the spray turned into just a stream of oil. The first few times, just cleaning out the nozzle fixed the problem. After that, it couldn't be fixed. I bought it because my Pampered Chef one melted next to the stove, but they are really expensive. Maybe you really do ""get what you pay for."""
239378,1,dull dull dull,"This is the 2nd or 3rd book I have read by this author and I have to say I will not try her again. I have to agree with the 1 review that I thought it was boring, not much going on til the very end and I had to push myself to read to the end hoping that it was going to get better. It did not. I saw all the glowing reviews and I thought I would try it. Not much happened way into the story. It could have been so much better using the plot where the hero tries to find out more about the author of the book society is conflicted about. That would have made it a little more exciting! Instead both the hero and the heroine go round and round about their feelings and the story doesn't go anywhere. Pretty blah."
239448,1,Not A Winner For Female Investors,"There are times in the book that I found the author's tone very condesending and male-oriented. He really does talk down to readers. Also, the million dollars he says that a person can save is a nice idea, but very hard to accomplish in the real world. What David does not say is that a million dollars today will be worth a fraction of that by the time most of us retire decades from now. This book is all about sales and marketing, instead of solid financial advice."
239458,1,Carole King Tapestry,"As I am researching Carole King for a scholarly paper, I ordered this book hoping there would be an introduction or preface with some history or information on her. Alas, there were only the song lyrics and music for piano and guitar--nothing else. Presentation of each song offers a page with the lyrics in poetry form preceding the sheet music which includes lyrics and music. I gave it a 1-star rating only because it didn't suit my purpose. I am sure anyone wanting just the sheet music for ""Tapestry"" would be very happy with it. Hopefully, I will find time to tackle learning to play her wonderful music once the paper is finished."
239501,1,poor quality,"this item is in my opinion poor quality, does not live up to claims. I do not recommend this item."
239525,1,worst little tike toy ever,this is the most poorly made little tikes toy i have ever seen. the lid doesn't seel so it fills with water the crane doesn't work correctly so it is very frustrating to use it is made out of very thin plastic
239526,1,Disappointed!,The lid is very flimsy! It can barely hold a truck full of sand. The crane is hard to use because it gets sand in the mechanism. It is overpriced.
239585,1,junk,"I agree with every review so far. This thing will not stay together. My daughter, 4, loves horses and barbie. She is so frustrated with the toy. Do not waste your time. We are going to exchange this right now."
239603,1,"Static, Static, Static","I received this monitor as a baby shower gift from my mother-in-law so I was unable to return it. This monitor has been a hassle from the very start. When plugged in, all we get is static. The static isn't as bad when using its battery supply, but it was still hard to hear our daughter unless she was very loud. We have finally gotten tired of this monitor and are switching to a Sony.If you want to sleep I would suggest getting a different monitor."
239669,1,pokemon book#1 review,The book was ok but it wasn't my favorite. I think they left out too many episodes and they didn't put enough parts in each episode they talked about. So Ididn't like it that much.
239685,1,Not enough detail or organization.,"THE MUSEUM OF HOAXES is a book based on a website collecting a variety of tall tales, con games, fantastic stories and urban legends. The problem with the book is that the haphazard way the stories are put together and their general brevity works on a website, but are far from acceptable in a book. Very little investigation is done into the actual circumstances of each hoax and the prose lacks any variation or even a good sense of humor. The best thing about this book is that it might pique a reader's interest to investigate some of the stories behind these little glimpses into mankind's collective gullibility. Other than that, I can't find any reason to recommend this ""web book."""
239731,1,Bizarre book,"This book has about as much to do with abs as a book on stamp collecting. From the bizarre pictures of a guy doing strange contortionist exercises on the edge of a pool and then in the pool to the useless plyometrics exercises to the ""repulse the monkey"" and ""power slide"" exercises, I found this book utterly useless and, quite frankly, a joke. Don't bother."
239742,1,Not what I had in mind,"If you're looking for Boston, they simply aren't here on this CD. It seems as though they lost the ""sound"" they are known for. My recommendation is to pick up the original Boston albums. Even RTZ was so much better. At the very least RTZ captured the sound we all love.Sad to seem them go. Try again guys."
239772,1,Disappointed overall,"I bought this on the strength of previous reviews, but I am disappointed and will probably return it. No range maps! No real distribution information at all. No sizes! No tracks for mammals. No Swahili names. Teeny tiny print that you need a magnifying glass to read. The information is not really organized at all, but just strung out in one long paragraph, so you need to hunt through to find specifics. The photos are of varying quality...some not very good. Over 2/3 of the book is birds...I plan to bring a separate field guide for birds, so I didn't really need the bird section. Very few insects or reptiles. I suppose if you want an all-in-one book with a little bit of everything, it may be useful, but for my purposes, not so much. Its too bad there wasn't a preview for this one, or I would have know these things up front. I'm going to try this one for mammals, which seems much better organizedPocket Guide to Mammals of East Africa"
239818,1,A Quick reminder of a calender you may want to miss.,"Leonard Maltin's publications are usually fantastic. This calendar, however, was a big disappointment.This title offers 366 short one paragraph capsule reviews of Leonard Maltin's favorite films. It is printed in black, white and grey with no photographs. The reviews that I read provide no real insight into the films. It also has a very basic layout which makes the calender even less appealing. (Many calendars which provide black and white text only, present it in a layout that makes it appealing when displayed. This one does not!)"
239884,1,"THESE ARE ""STAR"" AND NOT ""HEX"" SHAPED AS SHOWN !!","FALSE ADVERTISING !! PICTURE AND DESCRIPTION CLEARLY SHOWS THESE ARE ""HEX"" AND NOT ""STAR"" SHAPED. RECEIVED THE ""SWITCH & BAIT"" PRODUCT -THE STAR. I NEEDED HEX TO GET MY LICENSE PLATES OFF MY CAR. FALSE ADVERTISING !! Even weeks later, the same hex pix is being displayed, RIGHT NOW !! It's a fine product -BUT NOT WHAT I NEEDED NOR ORDERED."
239905,1,Disappointing musically,"Her voice is, of course, beautiful. The arrangements, however, were blah, bland, and boring. It felt to me like she was just putting in her time, without actually putting any emotion or style into it. I had thought that it was a given for an Anne Murray CD to be good. I was wrong. I wouldn't have bought them if I had heard them first. Very disappointing."
240021,1,Very poorly designed and manufactured product,"SkyScout does not operate as Celestron, the mfg. represents it to. Functions do not perform and results are rarely correct. The GPS is not accurate and close by best to the actual coordinates so beware. I purchased 3 units, 1 was returned once and 1 twice and they still do not work as represented."
240070,1,Odered Sweet and Sour Pops and got Sweet Pops,"I received this order of pops today March 24, 2011 and was not what is pictured. I got sweet pops instead with a small label on the plastic that the box is wrapped in stating sweet and sour pops. Then when you open it you do not have equal amount of variety of pops . You get 19 cherry, 12 Strawberry, 11 grape, 5 orange and 1 blue razz berry. Misrepresentation of merchandise."
240105,1,Adequate. Not built to last.,"I bought one of these for my s-10 digital camera, and proceeded to wear it around, somewhat extensively, after 6 or 7 months of owning it though, the stitching along the zipper came totally out, rendering it somewhat useless. I replaced it with a somewhat less fashionable, but more durable Samsonite camera bag.Also the zippered opening of this bag is prone to slightly scratch or mar plastic, or antireflective coatings such as those on camera LCDs."
240141,1,"No customer serivice, you need to pay","I have used for several months, and it doesn't support XP service pack2. Download driver didn't work. You have to pay for the tech support. I won't buy NETGEAR product again."
240153,1,"If I could give this product a zero, I would.","I had continual problems with my netgear products and spent over 40 hours on with their customer service (Customer service is in Delhi, India, and I was constantly frustrated by the lack of ability to communicate). I finally threw the product away and bought Linksys, and have been happy ever since!"
240170,1,Don't buy this,"Don't get carried away by the sleek design. It worked fine for a week and then the wireless component stopped working. 2-3 times a week, the router needs to be restarted. And, after 6 months, it was permanently dead. Then, finally had to replace this router. Not sure, how long this new piece would survive. Absolutely, no - no."
240175,1,Horrible setup and terrible DHCP performance,"Unlike many routers this one doesn't allow you to navigate to 192.168.1.1 and punch in your important info. Instead, this router wants you to navigate to routerlogin.[net] or somesuch nonsense. But that's not what drove me bonkers. The insurmountably erratic wireless performance is what drove me bonkers. I tried for a couple of days and returned it. I had this same problem with another of these routers but wrote the badness off to microwave towers in the area - that's not the problem. It's just a crummy router. I went with the Linksys which set up in 5 minutes and has worked flawlessly."
240193,1,Don't waste your funds. Keep searching.,"I teach a college/career Sunday School Class and purchased this DVD because it looked like a great tool for my class. What a waste of money. Just three people, sitting at a table discussing the Bible. There's no discussion material and it's incredibly boring to watch. Definitely not a tool for a Bible Study Class. Vey disappointed."
240321,1,Flimsy,"Ordering a new one because, like the other reviewer, my pot fell in the sink and the plastic lip shattered. Cheap in construction but not in price."
240402,1,Last Emperor Has No Clothes.,"Too Bad... What a shabby dressing technically given to this 1987 first class world ranking film.If it was shot in 70 mm this means the resolution, sharpness and color should be as smashingas it was in the theater. AND production standards at the time long before 1987 would have separatedthe different audio sources especially the rich Sakamoto score hence the ability to use surround soundbut IN REALITY the video is a bumpy ride; Grainy and color faded. No NOT with all that rich camera workpossible. The audio is the original TWO CHANNEL stereo. This was a sweeper at the Oscars and International venture. Why was it slapped directly to Blu Ray From shoddy transfer? ... give up? Gotta be money.TOTALLY Disappointing and a Shame.Ray Blue"
240404,1,Not great,"Video quality wasn't the worst or best I have seen, movie is rather boring. Overall I would not recomend this at all."
240484,1,Need a REFUND,"I am buying another one, because the one I received was bent, not straight. I am waiting for paperwork from until I can request my money back for the purchase. I will call my credit card company to stop payment also. I wasted over seventy dollars and received a bent track."
240497,1,Where was the editor?!,"If ever a book was in need of an editor, this one was it. I enjoyed the first five books, ""The Blending"" although they progressively were more stilted and difficult to follow. There is a great story and series in here fighting to get out! Even simple things like chapter headings that listed the location of the scene and a map of the ""world"" would have helped. I start to wonder if the pressure on the authors of these types of series to get the next one out fast is overwhelming and doesn't give them time to re-read their own work before they send it off. I was fantasizing about grabbing a pen and editing it myself and then sending it back to the publisher! What a disappointment."
240536,1,Kitaro is not as good as before,"I've heard this CD, and unfortunately I'm confused of this music. Kitaro tries to play as Dean Evenson but much worse. There is non-melodical music. It is partially glued with samples, without ""think"" and timing. Maybe two of compositions are better, but it is to little to say, that Kitaro made good CD."
240562,1,A tough read,"Although the writer of this book was a teacher she writes less than a page about her experience in that field. Mary Carey is by her own account a journalist. The style of the book is not to my taste. It is choppy and lacks a definitive story line or cohesive theme other than her life and all of the ""famous"" people she knows, herself included.I do not like to read ""endquote"" when the punctuation has clearly conveyed that idea. Pet peeve perhaps but even still the book is not likely to be of interest to the current casual reader.The title of this book piqued my interest, unfortunately it was all downhill from there. If you plan to live in Talkeetna and want to know the history of the era you may find this book useful. Otherwise read it only if you plan to teach in Talkeetna and want to know some early history of the school there or you have an undying curiosity about the author, Mary Carry, as it reads like a bad self-centered gossip column."
240634,1,Inadequate Power,"After charging for days, this unit cannot even budge a V6. It is not rated for the advertised power output (400 Amps). After repeated emails, the manufacturer appears to have no interest in helping me utilize the unit."
240688,1,He can act and he can write but the man cannot sing,"I bought this album with great expectations because I love Russell as an actor, but I think his singing must be an acquired taste and I'm not willing. If the band played alone this would be a fabulous listen, they are very good, but Russell's singing only gets in the way. Do yourself a favor and listen to the samples before you spend money on this album. Russell writes very well but his words are not really conducive to lyrics, there are just too many of them."
240715,1,Image on Amazon.com is Deceiving,"The image provided on Amazon.com shows 4 pieces. You really get oe physical piece with two sides. (see the image and look at the first shape that is yellow and brown) There is not 4 pieces to this kit as the image might lead. However, the description does state you get a 1000/6000 Grit combo....so interpret carefully.The quality of the stone seems to be good; I will sharpen with it as soon as I receive my sharpening guide/roller tool."
240741,1,Ending freaked out my 11 year old.,"If you have a child that is sensitive to unhappy endings, this is NOT the book to give him or her. My 11 year old daughter was very upset with the ending of the book. She couldn't bear the thought of the girls regressing in age even more. I expect her to have nightmares tonight."
240754,1,A painfully awful outing.,"I'm a huge, huge fan of the original Trancers. The rest of the series-- not so much. But at least every outing till now had featured original footage of B-Movie king Tim Thomerson. Trancers 6 has the dubious honor of being the first in the series to use stock footage of Thomerson; basically, Sir B-Movie wanted nothing to do with the project. And I don't blame him; Trancers 6 is edges into the realm of C-Movie. The plot makes little to no sense, the dialogue is forced in principle and acted even worse, and the effects are simply laughable. The old B-Movie style effects from the original Trancers had a certain charm to them, perhaps because they didn't try to do too much. Trancers 6 feels like it was made by an overeager college wannabe that just got his first Avid in the mail. It's truly painful to watch. I didn't get through it in the first round through. Really, Trancers 6 has no redeeming qualities. 1/5 stars."
240766,1,Here we go again....,"In my mind just does not have the lyrical wizardry to it that it needs. Some of the beats are good, but Pharrell is just not a rapper. Look at all the other CD's by the Neptunes, and you see a trend. Lryics are lakcluster, beats are lacking on some tracks, but has a few shining moments. Alas, we buy CD's for a good CD. Not a few good tracks.I guess this album sums it up...in Pharrell's Mind this is hot. However, in reality this CD does not cut it. Do not get me wrong, Pharell is an EXCELLENT PRODUCER. As an rap artist, not."
240781,1,Not Well Balanced,"I have three other Cuisinart pans and they are all 5 stars. This one is ""tippy."" The handle is too heavy in relation to the pan. Potentially dangerous, definitely annoying. Cooks great due to aluminum bottom, but use caution.After 9 months, I rarely use this pan.1 star is all i wold give it now.After 6 years, I NEVER use this pan. It would be gone from my kitchen it it took up more space, and may go in the next round of sending things off to various re-use places - at the recycle center, charity garage sales, charity thrift stores. Still one star.A one star review is a rare one for me to give because they often very personal or about some dumb thing that could have been easily corrected with an exchange or refund. But this is a one star item. The pan tips over and hot stuff spills out. That is bad."
240788,1,"HOTEL INFOMERCIAL, NOT COSTA RICA","DO NOT BUY THIS DVD! I agree with Mr. Campos in every point. It is awful. I'm a native-born Costa Rican. I believe sellers are writing some of the misleading reviews to get people to buy this awful DVD. The video is OVERWHELMENLY hotels and spas. The people and nature of Costa Rica are barely covered. I am an actual (and deeply disappointed) buyer. Breakdown: Hotels and Spas: 75%, hostes: 15%, Nature and people: 10%."
240844,1,Very poor service for international customers,I can not recommend this company for international customers. They do not ship with tracking options. The shipping time to i.e Europe is 4-5 weeks. They are not capable of shipping to customers resident in countries not available in their country code choice list. Although they do advise a way of giving your address information if your country is not in their choice list they do not use this information. They did not react properly to information given by both telephone and e-mail. It was simply ignored!
240845,1,Great book,"I would give this book five stars! I wasn't able to change the review stars on my kindle. Anyway, I like how Raina in a way has a sort of loyal to both her dad and Gunnar. This book kind of reminds me of Beauty and the Beast, because Belle in the movie is the prisoner sort of and the Beast think he isn't good enough for. Beast falls in love because she calms him and Belle looks beyond to what there is on the outside. I definitely recommend reading this book:]"
240868,1,Not properly sized,I had to send this item back because the sizing was way off. Normally I wear a size 8 in easy spirit (I have many pairs of easy spirit shoes) These fit like a long and narrow 9 on my foot. They had to be returned. and I was out the shipping money.
240886,1,DO NOT BUY THIS PILLOW,"I bought this pillow as I have a bad lower back and being pregnant has made sleeping uncomfortable. This pillow is the LOWEST quality pillow I have EVER used. The filling is loose and the pillow does not keep it shape. It is very hard to ""fluff"" the pillow for use each night as it does not even distribute the filling. I HIGHLY recommend a regular well made body pillow if you are accustomed to higher quality pillow. I had really high hopes and was very disappointed."
240890,1,Avoid this version at all costs,"I won't write a diatribe about what I hated with this version, so I'll sum it up in as few points as possible:-Samantha Morton too cute and young - she looked like she was 12-Ciaran Hinds: too old and creepy for the part, came across as a raging, shouting bull during the whole movie. Rochester was an angry man but he wasn't THAT angry all the time.-No chemistry whatsoever between the two characters. Samantha Morton looked mortified to have to kiss Ciaran Hinds in the kissing scenes. Frankly, I'd be mortified too.Avoid this version as well as the William Hurt/Charlotte Gainsbourg versions- don't let your curiosity to see another version of Jane Eyre get the best of you. They're both awful. See the Timothy Dalton/Zelah Clarke and Toby Stephens/Ruth Wilson versions instead."
240907,1,Awful,"Take the word really, multiply it by 100, then add the word bad, and you have the mathematical formula for rating this movie."
241011,1,"Fun, but flimsy and easily torn","My kids liked this tent, however it was very flimsy and the fabric tore too easily. We ended up throwing it away after about 3-4 months of use."
241046,1,disappointing rehash,"You're better off buying her ""Journey of the Soul"" set of books from 2000 -- these are much more informative than this little booklet with little substance or new info.Also highly recommend Michael Newton's ""Journey of Souls"" and ""Destiny of Souls""."
241053,1,this band is incredibly musically weak,"This band is just not very good. A prime example of hype. Weak lyrics, melodies and playing make this album a definate ""don't buy"". pop-weak poseur metal at it's worst. Advertising can apparently buy you sales these days, yuck."
241060,1,Needs modification to work,"Good concept just terrible design, whoever designed this product obviously did not use it. The output jack won't fit the connector because plastic covers the hole. You have to drill out plastic on one side and shave connector to make it fit, I should have just sent back but figured too much of a hassle. Search for another company I have had problems with Belkin before."
241125,1,Loud and obnoxious!,"I thought we'd upgrade our home clippers and get these since they seemed a little better quality than the ones we already. They did not cut cleanly, I had to go over the same spot many times. These also vibrated so loudly that it hurt my hubby's hearing and I had to return them."
241161,1,Save Your Money,"I was not crazy about this product, 3 months later it hardly works at all. I have to go over the same patch of skin before it cuts all the hairs which leads to skin irritation also it's not a close shave so while it worked I found myself having to shave every morning."
241221,1,The Rock,This thing is hard as a rock. Like walking on pebbles. I received no effect from it whatsoever.
241312,1,Oh please spare us!,"My gosh, why are all bands sinking so low these days?Theres no such thing as real music.All praise ""Coldplay"" ""Franz Ferdinhad"" and ""The Darkness"""
241332,1,Not worth a dime!,These attach with a putty that doesn't hold. They don't glow no matter how much light they get. I was really disappointed as was my daughter.
241336,1,Cow Dung at its Worst,"What a piece of garbage this is. Of the the 700 CD's I own, this is the absolute worst. Eddie owes me fifteen bucks. I really liked Gary with Extreme, but he was not a real party guy. Van Halen music (when at its best) was always upbeat, have a blast, party music. You could hear the fun the group was having, regardless of what Eddie has said in print about David Lee and Sammy. Eddie is not going to pull a Carlos Santana at this rate. His work has gotten worse and worse since ""1984"", and most of the stuff since David Lee left sounds forced and unrealistic. The early stuff sounded like they didn't have a care in the world - just loved making music. Eddie's read too many of his clippings about being a guitar God. Although Stevie Ray Vaughan died early, he could teach Eddie a thing or two about being dedicated to the music, not his own conceited ego. Eric Clapton this guy will never be. After risking money on this guys last 7 CD's, I will not be suckered again."
241417,1,Steering is serious problem,Bought this for son when he turned 1 year. He was able able to push the button by 1.5 but the steering does not work. We have taken it apart and put it back together thinking that may be the problem and even put oil on the moving parts. It just doesn't seem to turn well. The mechanism for the steering is flimsy at best -a rod with a hook on the end and its quite frustrating for our little boy. It also gets stuck easy in grass which is frustrating for all. I would just wait till they can drive a bigger version. We are looking at purchasing a 12V vehicle now at age 2.
241441,1,"Location, Location.","Neil Gaiman brought European folklore stateside in American Gods, and it worked. But Seelie and Unseelie Courts in New Jersey!?!?! What?!Garden State it may be but Tir na NÓg it is not. And besides, North America has it's own nature spirit traditions. Why do all fairies need to be Gaelic?Leaving aside my other issues with this book (which I am far too lazy to go into,) as far as I'm concerned, if you're going to make a story about Celtic fairies, you really ought to base the story in Ireland or the UK. And if you STILL want to base it in North America you should at least give the reader an explanation as to why they are there!"
241466,1,Cheap imitation,"I am rating the physical, not intellectual, qualities of this book. To call this a hardback shows how that term has lost much of its meaning over the years. A hardback used to connote a cloth cover over stout cardboard, embossed with lettering, covered with a dust jacket. The pages would be composed of acid-free paper sewn together. The print would be high contrast. This dictionary has none of these qualities. The vinyl(?) blue cover of the copy I received was already peeling from the cardboard at a corner. The cover shows many scratches. The pages are glued, not sewn. The print looks more like xerox than high (or even regular) quality. There was no mention of acid-free paper on the copyright page. This dictionary should be fine for temporary, not long-term use. I remember the high quality Cassell's hardback dictionary I owned decades ago. I wish now that I still had it."
241536,1,Came in the wrong finish but box was correct and It doesn't warm the towels very well,Came in the wrong finish but box was correct but the big disappointment was that It doesn't warm the towels very well!
241679,1,HUGE,"I can't believe how huge this belt is. I ordered it according to their recommended size, but it looks like it would fit an elephant and when I tighten it to fit, the material is all bunched up. Even if it wasn't so large around my waist I would not find this belt comfortable, it has a really big band that goes half way up my back and digs into my legs, so it is impossible to sit down in. I only wear it at home if I am going to be standing for a while, but it comes off the second I sit down. So unfortunately I can't wear this support when I go out, it is very difficult to put on and would be to much of a hassle, plus you have to take it off to use the restroom. I wish I had not purchased this product."
241684,1,Description lacking,The dimensions of this bookbag where not stated. The bookbag is extremely smaller than the photo depicts. I had to pay double shipping sending it back. A big disappointment.
241742,1,Both delighted and disappointed,"When I got this book and paged through it, I was delighted with the baby blankets and I've decided to knit several of them. I was also excited because I love the ""Yarn Shop"" series. Debbie Macomber captures the spirit of a Local Yarn Shop beautifully.So was I bitterly disappointed when I looked up the recommended yarns for the project. These are yarns that are available in large chain stores, not in local yarn shops. I can appreciate that people are interested in knitting affordably, but there could at least be a mix of yarns. Much of what I loved about the original books is the knitting community that takes place in a local yarn shop. Having ALL of the recommended yarns in the pattern books come from chain stores betrays the premise of the stories. The stories could not have taken place anywhere else, yet the companion books send you to buy yarn from the very stores that are driving small shops out of business."
241881,1,Limited Temperature Range,"I thought this was a great item until it got really cold one night. Weather report next morning said it was minus 30F and I wondered how cold it was at my house. Checked my wonderful new thermometer and it said the minimum temp was -21. Turns out the range of this pricey instrument stops at -21.8, according to the manual.If you live in North Central U.S. or Central Canada, you can either use this instrument to fool yourself into thinking you're someplace warmer or you can send it back and get an outdoor thermometer that can cope with the real world."
241934,1,An exercise in frivolity and fluff,Disco was not the only scourge of the 70's. The Dreamweaver and the likes of this man made for some sappy quasi-soft funk from which the industry is still recovering. I bought this album for twenty cents and do not like it. Buy a used turntable and do the same; save a buck or two.
241980,1,Very Disappointing,Decided to buy this unit over a Uniden one...what a mistake! I'll simply list the problems/shortcomings we've had/noticed in our 4 months of ownership:1. Batteries die in 16 hours without any use!2. Low Battery warning tone occurs 10 seconds before they die3. Playback of digital recorder is poor4. Reception/transmission is worse than our old Panasonic 900 Mhz5. Buttons small and too close togetherI truly regret purchasing this item.
242024,1,Don't bother,"The content was extremely elementary - lacking any depth or insight. Nothing I didn't already figure out on my own. This couldn't really be a professional effort, as evidenced in its run on sentences and mispelled words. Save your money."
242057,1,Very Dissapointing,"I really don't even know what to say about this film besides: It was horrible. With the great cast it had, I can't believe the movie was this boring and pointless. Thank god I saw it at the matinee price, what a waste of time!"
242080,1,A shocker!!,"My 86 yr old Mother loved Mario and watched his movies on a regular basis. She recently asked me to get her a book about his life. So this is the one I ordered. To make a long story short...she returned the book to me along with ALL her dvd's of his movies!!! She was shocked to read about what kind of a man he was. To put it all in a nutshell he ONLY wanted virgins...he wanted to always be the ""first"". I had NO interest in the man so I threw out the book along with the dvds. Nothing against the author...it's Mario that my mother no longer likes!!"

242214,1,Let's drug our children!,"Who wrote this book, Novartis? (The makers of Ritalin.) Let's teach our children to take drugs to curb their natural childish exuberance, I'm sure it will teach them to take drugs for every little problem all through their life. I'm sure the greedy psychologists and drug companies LOVE this book, as well as lazy teachers who would like for their students to sit through class like zombies and substandard parents who'd rather not work at parenting, but I'd hate to have the writing or promotion of this book on MY conscience."
242218,1,"If your 6 foot plus, don't bother.","I purchased these after reading reviews that other brands were to short, hoping these would work. I am 6'-1"" and these don't even come close. I maxed out the length and if I pull the front straps down to my belt it is tight at my neck and the back straps only reach the center of my back.They do seem to be well made."
242240,1,Silly,"What starts out as a pretty standard clone of umpteen other similar home invasion movies, quickly becomes a ridiculous series of supposedly 'clever' plot twists. They aren't clever, but just silly and the movie quickly spirals into utter nonsense."
242251,1,Don't waste your money.,The charger stopped working after a few weeks. I contacted Bargain Cell and never received a response. Don't waste your money.
242362,1,THUNDER IN PARADISE Review!,"When Hulk Hogan wasn't bodyslamming wrestlers in the WWF or WCW, he liked to try his hand at acting. In this two-hour pilot to the syndicated TV series, Hogan is R.J. Spencer, a Navy Seal with an elite super boat called ""Thunder"" that can fly across the ocean at almost light speed. Paired with zany sidekick, Bru, the two battle drug dealers, jewel theives, and of course, the Cuban government. There is one enemy too powerful though as the government won't fund their boat and they could lose it. Meanwhile, a snobby hotel owner, Megan Whittaker (Felicity Watterman) could lose it all if she isn't married before a certain date. This sets up an indecent preposal where Spencer and Megan agree to get married.This one has it all from old wrestlers like Brutus Beefcake and Jim ""The Anvil"" Neidhart to sexy supermodel Carol Alt as a cocktail waitress. Don't forget Charlotte Rae as Megan's aunt. It doesn't get much better than this. Look out for a super realistic heat-seeking missle."
242455,1,I should have listened,"I should have believed the other reviewers. Being a die hard fan of both actresses, I thought, ""how could this be bad"". This was 50 minutes of absolutely NOTHING. It was cheaply put together. I learned nothing from it. What a waste of money! If I could have given it zero stars I would have."
242543,1,No show,"Probably would have been a great product at a great price; however, the price must have been too good since the seller decided they couldn't/wouldn't ship it. No apologies, no negotiation, no product. Strongly suggest you avoid anything offered by this supplier.(Amazon did provide a refund, but nothing from the seller)"
242596,1,I WASTED MY MONEY DEFINITELY!!!,"I purchased this HDMI cord for my Sony Bravia 32inch 1080i Tv, and i was totally disappointed. 1. It made my TV show horribly(even in HD) 2. It kept jumping everything i would try and watch something and 3. I could usually watch my TV on 2 different outputs, with the HDMI cord in i could only view it on 1 channel. It was basically a big waste of time. I dont know how there are all these ""Good Reviews"" on here, because i missed how ""GREAT"" this HDMI cord works. Keep your money PLEAASE!"
242646,1,There are better Hdmi cables that won't break the bank!!!!,"Okay simply put I purchased three HDMI cables: a Sony HDMI cable from Walmart, an Accel from [...] and this cable(All of which I interchanged on my PS3 to determine the best picture quality available from the three). Now of the three cables the Sony was the best of all I noticed the most definition with this cable. The Accel was pretty decent as well but lacked as much detail as the sony, but with this cable there is a picture and that's about it. I notice how this cable cant handle blu-ray well its too much data for this cable to keep up with which made colors look slightly off(they say its all 1's and 0's but I think this one's missing a couple.....hundred.....thousand of em)worst hdmi cable in my opinion. Do your self a favor and get a decent(not cheap)hdmi cable that wont break the bank!!!![...]"
242670,1,too bored to finish,"This book seemed more like a contrived promotional piece for PETA than a romance novel. The heroine was rightfully distrustful of humans because of their poor treatment of her, but we are suppose to think she is clean while she literally sleeps with a pig? The hero whose name I've already forgot because all she does is call him English is one dimensional and an idiot terrified of saying anything against her beliefs lest she get angry. Yes we all know what PETA believes, humans bad, animals good, never mind that the natural world is far more brutal, how many humans easy their young?"
242737,1,Sewing without a bobbin...?,"I feel awful for buying this for my child. He's about to turn six and is always wanting me to sew him clothes and blankets for his stuffed animals. I thought we coudl both use this (him for learning and me when I need a few stitches) and maybe make some crafts together. No dice. Not only was it impossible to thread, but it stitched ONCE before stopping and jamming. Then it wouldn't stitch after that - the plastic piece was off kilter somewhow.I'm on a mission to get a new one. Poor kid...and poor me! I was excited about teaching him a new skill."
242779,1,Just for restaurant employees,"I had been led to believe that this book also included comments about what happens when customers complain about their food. However, it was all about the little scams the wait staff pull to make extra money, usually at the expense of the restaurant. Not having worked in a restaurant, I didn't understand a lot of the scams."
242799,1,You have got to be kidding me.,"Ok... let's look at reality here. Colors don't describe and tell your true personality to others. You do... and not through colors. Half of the people I tested this theory on, the book was totally wrong. I can't believe someone would actually think that if they knew someone's colors they would automatically know who that person is. You don't truly know a person until you really get to know them for who they are on the inside... not the colors they wear on the outside. Is that going to make you treat them any differently - the colors they prefer? The world is screwed up enough without another theory to exclude certain types of people."
242835,1,Just bad,"Movie lacked any real funny moments. The idea was a bit cool though. If this idea of the old scout master dieing in the woods and his son taking over was done in a serious note could be great. But a movie with a bunch of kids and couple guys just swearing the whole time at nothing, quite terrible."
242840,1,Not happy with this Video,Thought this might be a little more scientific/health oriented. Wish I could have read a review before purchasing it. Real basic and not much information. Program is like a typical talk show with guests etc. I wouldn't waste my time and money on this!!!!
242871,1,Didn't work for me,We purchased this strap for our Lazy Susan and it comes with tape on the back to adhere the strap to the cupboard but the tape is a joke. I simply pushed on the cupboard after taping the strap onto it and it just pulled right off. So this would in turn be way more dangerous for a baby because if the cupboard held their weight slightly they would try to push up on the cupboard and then when the tape comes loose they would crash inside of the lazy susan and if you can picture that happenning you can imagine how fun that would be!! I've had the worst time finding a safety lock for my lazy susan and I was really hoping that this one would work after reading some of the reviews but no such luck.
242872,1,Slow Songs Predominate,"The track ""Boogie Nights"" is a classic, but the rest of the album doesn't quite measure up. Most of it is too slow for my taste and I wouldn't really call it a Disco essential. The sound quality is a bit muffled as well; a digitally remastered reissue would help a lot."
242894,1,Not Funny,Bland ramblings. It seemed funny at the time. . .and the times have changed. Try another disc and forget this one.
242934,1,Something's missing...,"There's something missing from this CD, I don't know what it is but it's just not the same as the first attempt."
242940,1,NOT AMAZON'S FAULT,I will never order NPPR again. Amazon received my payment and it was given to the publishers of NPPR. I received 1 issue.AMAZON. COM GOT MY MONEY BACK FOR ME!!! NPPR didn't do a thing!
243014,1,This Cot is Aweful,This cot has a support stiffness that is in the material running through the center like where the child's waist would be. It sticks up higher than the top and bottom of the bed so it is very uncomfortable if the child is lying on their back. I'm going to find another cot.
243042,1,little value,"This article should not be listed for sale on Amazon.It is a short, fluffy piece - maybe worth a read if accessed for free, but DEFINITELY not worth $10. I'd be embarassed to have it listed if I was the author.....and this is not a personal attack - I just feel ripped-off!"
243139,1,do not need for inevrter,If your mounting indoors or a area that is free of water I guess this would be okay However offering it with an inverter is ridiculas as it has to be mounted near your battery box like for us truck drivers. It is better to use a marine grade circuit breaker this way you do not have to worry about the weather
243187,1,Damaged Item,"I ordered two of these babies. When I opened the package, it was obvious that one of the Pots was broken. And sure enough, when I opened the one Pot up, it was shattered in pieces. Overall, they work great. You are better off just going to Walmart and buying it there though. That way you don't have to worry about getting a damaged item."
243188,1,Good idea but poor quality,"We purchased two of these, seeing them at a recent campout. The idea isGREAT (the reason for the two stars). The quality is extremely poor (the reason for only two stars). For instance:1> One of the shelters we received was *obviously* used but sold asnew (probably not Amazon's issue since it was sent directly fromColeman). There were large sections of paint missing from thepoles. Some of the poles were bent. The ""springs"" used to holdthe ends of the poles into the connectors were bent. This unitwe returned immediately.2> The second shelter was new. However, on disassembly, the anchorsfor the elastic cords holding the poles together easily poppedout on about 20% of the poles. As much as I like these shelters,we are preparing to return this one as well.In short, stay away from these until Coleman solves their quality issues!"
243256,1,It's like reading the web version...,It's like reading the web version... Except you have to pay 13 dollars for it!
243305,1,Not Really Worth The Money,"I bought this for my son for Christmas and when he hooked it up to his gamecube, one speaker didn't work at all and the other one the sound was so low you had to put your ear next to the speaker to hear it and that was with the sound turned all the way up!I returned it right away for refund."
243364,1,Don't buy if you want something long term,"I had this air mattress for less than 6 months, with only light use when guests come over to the apartment. I probably did not use this mattress more than 15 times and now it becoming undone at one of the seams and leaking air bad. I know people who have had better experiences with better quality mattresses, so next time, cost will not be the overriding factor."
243388,1,Wallace Casino Stainless-Steel Flatware Set,I purchased my set of Wallace Casino Stainless-Steel Flatware and the first thing I noticed after a week or so was that the knives were pitting. I wrote to the company since this product has a 1 year warranty. They said I had washed them incorrectly. I explained that the flatware is supposed to be dishwater safe and the flatware was not washed in any way which voided the warranty. I did not hear from the company after that. I wrote again and they did not answer my letter. The set is beautiful but the knives have problems and the company will not honor their warranty. It is a shame too because as I said the set is beautiful but you cannot set a table with rusty pitted knives.
243434,1,Not the best country music dvd,"I was disappointed with this dvd.To me it was too much Jerry Lee Lewis and not enough of the other singers.(I am not knocking Jerry Lee,I enjoy his country hits)."
243457,1,I was left behind!,"I must admit I was very much disappointed in not only this book but the last two! The series began with such a bang - holding your interest page after page. Now... sadly, the writers have choosen to drag the story out in an effort to simply make more money. I am so disappointed with them that I doubt I will read the next book... Honestly - they could have summed this up 2 books ago!"
243499,1,I thought Vanilla Fudge disbanded...,"Carmine Appice would be proud. For many, this is a sound that has been twenty years in the making--a musical melding of Iron Butterfly and early-era Rod Stewart."
243660,1,Terrible Design,"Wish I'd read the reviews before I bought it. My 18 month old is extremely interested in the potty, so I bought this as an experiment at Target yesterday. My biggest issue is the way the music works- it is triggered by a motion sensor, so she quickly figured out she could stick her hand in front of the sensor to make the music play- thank you Fisher Price for encouraging my daughter to stick her hands in the potty! Anyway, I just ordered Tinkle Toonz on-line & hopefully that will work better- the music is triggered by actual moisture, not just motion. It seems like most people end up with more than one potty, so this will be my ""spare"". All that being said, she has gone potty 3X already without prompting, so I guess I can't call it a waste!"
243664,1,Leaks like a sieve,"This potty seemed like a really good idea when we bought it - but it's not a good investment if you have a little boy. Within three days, the music part had broken, and before that it only worked occasionally. The removable potty portion leaks terribly - we ended up with a huge puddle on the floor every time. Because of where little boy parts are, this potty just isn't designed well for boys. It's a cute idea and my son liked the music while it lasted, but the potty is pretty much garbage - which is where we tossed ours."
243665,1,Unsatisfactory,"When my husband and I were at the store to purchase our daughters first potty, we chose this model: the base was wider and it seemed more stable. We quickly removed the batteries for this potty, because our daughter was so interested in listening to the chime, she would put any- and everything into the pot. The extremely easy-to-remove potty cup, has become one of our daughter's favorite hats. This ""potty"" now serves as our daughter's reading or TV watching chair. I strongly urge parents not to consider purchasing this product. It was a waste of money and a great source of irritation."
243666,1,AWFUL potty!!!,"As others have complained the sounds on this potty do not work correctly and they go off for no reason at odd times (like in the middle of the night). It leaks terribly! My son tries to go, but gets discouraged when his pee-pee is in the potty AND all over the floor. I wish I had read these reviews before purchasing this potty. What a waist of money!!!"
243667,1,Don't waste your money,"I bought it because I thought it would be neat for my daughter to hear the royal sound. NOT! The red light wouldn't shut off, and when we weren't even around you would hear it go off. Plus my daughter wanted to keep putting her hands down in the potty to make it make the noise. It leaks and is hard to get off of the big girl potty. My advice is to just keep on walking when you see it in the store."
243690,1,its not worth it,"I purchased my knife over four years ago and have not used it since.I even forgot I bought it ,until my son gave me a bread maker for christmas and I thought it would come in handy to slice my bread.But that was a let down.I have learned to look at reviews before i buy anything else.So please do not waste your money."
243702,1,Poor results.,I planted corn in these pellets with poor results. The seeds were labeled as having a 90% germination rate. I only acheived a germination rate of 7% roughly. I have recently planted more seeds in miracle grow potting soil and have seen much better results. Germination took less time and the germination percentage was quite near the seeds rating. As a result I don't think all that highly of the Jiffy 72 peat pellets.
243726,1,GOT BORING,I agree with all the one star reviews that this book lacks everything. I've read quite a few E. Leonard books and enjoyed most of them. This was his worst so far.
243858,1,It broke within 1 week,"Wow. This is a record low for stress-ball lifetime. I bought this thing on Sunday, and it exploded on Thursday. I used it maybe 1 hour a day. It was a waste of 5.99$.The only positive to this is that the inside material is pretty cool to play with."
243888,1,Krups Burr Grinder,Used this thing a total of about 10 times and it stopped working.Still using my old one from big lots I got for $6 5 yrs ago.Overated as far as noise and ease of use. Container hard to get out sometimes Did not really see any difference in coffee taste.
243910,1,Sent it back,"This was a Chrismas gift, 2010. My daughter was so excited and then came the disappointment. It was impossible to get a view of anything. Any slight movement near the telescope would risk losing the view that took forever to find! My daughter wanted either a telescope or the three seasons of Avatar the Last Airbender. So once I sent this back, I bought the 3 DVD box sets and she's happier now!"
243967,1,"This Is ""Punk"" ?","I bought London Calling a couple of months ago. I Loved it. So then I bought this piece of $&@# , and man was it awfull. Give em' the boot."
243987,1,Disappointed from Texas,If I had read some of the reviews I would never had purchased the book. When I looked at it closely I realized that it was something I really couldn't use because it did not include the up to date building requirements. If the title shown had mentioned 1932 edition it would have helped in my decsion whether to purchase the book or not. One thing I learned was that I need to check and double check before I purchase.
244022,1,Difficulty with this company,"I begain my first attempt to get this safe on 5/28 within a couple of weeks I recieved the product which was moderately damaged. I returned it and 2 weeks later the exact same damaged safe was deivered. the 3rd safe I recieved was also moderately damaged. Edges smashed in, and while the door would open and lock, it definately lost its water/fire proof capabilities. I am still attempting to get the return fed ex paperwork from Eli the manager at home and beyond. He offered me 30.00 off and I told him I wouldn't take anything less than 50%. Now I just want my money returned so that I can go to a store and purchase a safe. This item weighs 89 pounds and I am sure it takes a beating down the conveyor belt. I would suggest that if you cant get a purchased item to a customer in good shape than you should remove that item for your catalogue. I love Amazon and this is the first time I have had trouble with a merchant like this.Sincerely,Lisa M Bach-Bohler"
244111,1,YES IT IS CHEAP,COBY PRODUCTS ARE GREAT FOR THE FIRST TWO WEEKS WHEN MOST PEOPLE WRITE A REVIEW. IT WILL NOT LAST MUCH LONGER AND THE COMPANY DOES NOT STAND BEHIND THE WARRANTY.
244196,1,Huh???,"I'm a Microsoft COM/DCOM person, very technical, needing to understand the alternative technology: CORBA. This book spends time explaining the OMG organizational structure, committee procedures, etc and when you get to the more technical sections you forget you left the prior section. I couldn't grasp the concepts or map them into anything I know. It lacks a clear direction or teaching methodology. They guys at Visigenic recommended this book, but I give it a thumbs down. When I was through the first few chapters I said, ""Huh???"" and promptly returned to book for a refund."
244204,1,Gains 10 min a week,"It's a beautiful, sturdy watch but my husband has worn it for 3 months now and it gains almost 10 minutes a week, which is very annoying! I expected better."
244319,1,movie About Cherry,Didn't get a chance to bring it up and did not have time to watch. so thank u I might have to purchace it.
244336,1,do not buy from this Co,"I purchased the TPS from this seller it didn't get here for two week and when it did the part looked great once installed my car ran worse I had to take it and have a computer hooked up on it, and what comes up bad TPS there is a position bad so they are just sending out bad parts"
244367,1,Disappointing - doesn't compare to older models,"We have 2 Ball Party sets from 4 yrs ago and my 5-yr-old still likes to play with them. We got Symphony for our 1-yr-old thinking it would expand our set of interchangeable, build-it-your-way Ball Party parts. Big disappointment! They have made the balls and tunnels larger, so the new set doesn't fit with the old. You can only build the Symphony tower one way, so it is no longer a construction toy. My 1-yr-old does like to drop the balls and watch them go down, but why pay $35 for a toy that only does that?? And it has an annoying feature that the sound keeps coming back on after the child has crawled away, forcing the grown-ups to hop up and turn it off. Look around for the non-battery-powered older sets, or get a pound-the-ball toy instead for less than half the price."
244409,1,You are showing a picture of the script.,You are showing a picture of the script or stage play when you are really selling the novel. I ordered one because I want a script and was surprised when I opened the package and it was the novel. Please change the picture so others don't make the same mistake and waste money on something they don't want.
244429,1,Sensible insensibilities,"Nah ... !! WAY,way overrated.Different - because it's quite ancient & thus intriguing - but simply an ordinary sort of ' who dun it '.I won't say it's no good, but will say it's one of those films I know I won't bother to watch twice !"
244534,1,"A pi$$ poor cd, by a pi$$ poor cover band.","Don't be fooled when you see the track listing, the songs are not sung by the original artists, but by a 3rd rate cover band, who sound like $hit. I rather listen to a bowel movement on loop all day, then listen to this...then again a bowel movement, and this CD are one in the same. $hit, $hit, $hit."
244535,1,Only because its bearable..,"Call me close-minded, I don't care.. Christian metal? come on now.. a musical style that was made on the most unholy ANTIchrist ideals and now christians think they can corrupt it? haha.. seriously though - this seems a pathetic attempt at breaking into mainstream metal to convert all us evil evil people. go back to knocking on doors for your brainwashing recruiting sessions. Consider this a warning for all you *real* metalheads - avoid the oncoming brainwashing from pityful imitation metal bands..Real metal lives on! Beware mediocre sh'ty immitations!"
244656,1,Friday the 13th part 8- Jason takes the bomb,I am a fan of Friday the 13th. I realy am. This movie ranks among one of the worst movies I have ever seen.- The acting is pretty bad- Jason teleports- Bad directing- Dumb kills- Bad movie
244663,1,"""Coal Miners Daughter"" meets ""The Prowler""","Overall, ""My Bloody Valentine"" is one of the early 80's horror movies that just doesn't deliver the goods. You've got a killer running around who the audience doesn't really care about because your not supposed to know who it is, a bunch of ugly, fat, older 20's somethings with bad accents that as characters are neither appealing or worth caring about, and some cheap special effects that just don't do the trick.The movie plays as a ""who-dun-it"" which is probably it's biggest setback. It's not worth trying to figure out who the killer is when all of the possibilities are badly acted and characters without much development. This would have played much better as a straight ""rampant psycho kills horny teenagers"" film.The special effects arent all that great either. Gimme some hot babes running around the forest any day over these hillbillies trudging through the coal mines.Disappointing."
244671,1,Enough already!,"As is to be expected, by the time the infamous Jason embarked on his sixth foray into mass murder (remember that the madman’s mother was our murderess in part 1), the concept had grown quite stale. In this episode, a telepathic, telekinetic girl named Tina, who at an early age caused the death of her father by collapsing a pier on which he was standing, moves to Camp Crystal Lake with her mother to try and escape the horrible memories. However, when she arrives, her powers accidentally rise Jason from the watery grave into which he fell in #6. Add in a group of (...)teenagers (staying at the house next door to Tina’s) and you’ve got the classic (read tiresome) “Friday The 13th” formula. The scares don’t work, the dialogue is stupefyingly inane, even for this type of film, and a dumb subplot involving an evil psychiatrist out to exploit Tina is so ridiculous it defies words."
244691,1,The Filmmakers Should Be DAMNED!,"This is truly a lousy film, one of the worst of all time. The villian, played by deceased recording artist Ailiyah, doesn't make an appearance until 45 minutes into the film. Even then, her presence is too brief to establish any sort of feelings pro or con toward her character.Her character doesn't take any actions until the movie is almost over. The total onscreen time for the antagonist is probably not much more than 10 minutes. Ailiyah had more quality time onscreen in her music video promo for the film.If all you expect is to watch MTV for a couple of hours, then this is the movie for you. The plot--if you can call it one--is weak, uninspired, unimaginative. This movie is worth watching for free, let alone paying for it."
244810,1,Promising S01 & Stupid and annoying S02,"I acknowledge that S01 made me very interested, then S02 is missed so much, annoying with a Sarah Connor neurotic, and an inconsistency in the scenario (Sarah is able to run the shortly after an surgical operation!!!)The purchase of S01 is thus useless......"
244825,1,Facts Schmacts,I had to have this book for a Creation and Evolution class. I was really looking forward to hearing a scientifically based rebuttal to the Evolutionary Theory - I was sorely disappointed. Behe regularly misquotes statements and misrepresents data which doesn't do much to help his argument. What disappoints me even more are the number of people who will undoubtedly read this book without doing any research of their own to fact-check.
244832,1,"Behe's argument, old news and weak!","I am a Christian, but it is simply obvious that evolution has created all the life we see on Earth. Behe's argument is like that of an under-educated child... to say natural selection could not have occured because perpahps one advance at a time could in a system that is ""irreducibly complex"" not have aided said species survival is rediculous! I suggest that Behe reread his Darwin!"
244896,1,Do not buy this game,"When i bought this game i was very happy,it looked cool and if it was anything like the last ones it would play alright too.I was wrong,DEAD wrong.It only played for about an hour then I shut it off.About 15 minutes later I turned it back on and it would not load,that hour i played was horrible.Glitchy sounds,people and most of all bad graphics.Do not buy this game,amazon should be ashamed for letting a piece of crap like this get sold."
244955,1,If You Are New To The Business World,"If you are new to the business world this book might be helpful, but for someone like myself that has been in business for years, this is just basic business knowledge.This book was recommended to me to help me move up in my career, however, there is nothing new that Ms. Ruffino wrote that I already didn't know.She also seems to be lost in years of the male dominated business field because she concentrates on how to beat the males in many ways.If you know nothing about being a business woman, buy this book, but if you have been in the business world as long as I have, save your money.It is very dry and you will learn nothing new."
245021,1,Thank goodness it finally broke!,"After about 2 years of unevenly burned toast this thing died. For the last year the only way to get the toast up was by unplugging the toaster. Since the eject and the ""doneness"" share the same dial, you can't set the toaster to the perfect doneness and leave it at that setting...you have to continually fiddle with it. I would rate this as 1 star, however, I believe that my passionate hatred of this toaster may be clouding my judgement, so therefore I give it 2 stars."
245032,1,Somethings Can't Be Reviewed Quickly,It's a light bulb. It worked when I installed it. Reviewed so Amazon will stop hounding me for a review.If it lasts 3 years it's a five star. If it lasts 2 years it's a three star. If it lasts less than that it's a one star. TBD.I've said the same thing on three other reviews of light bulbs.UPDATE: The bulb burned out after two months of use. I've contacted the seller and will let you know how I'm treated. For now I can give this only one star.

AARON CARTER IS NOT ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE'S JUST ANOTHER TALENTLESS POP STAR SINGING ABOUT HOW COOL HE IS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Rock 'n roll hall of fame????!!!! That just goes to show you how MTV can brainwash anyone into thinking that bubblegum pop is rock 'n roll. Don't watch MTV, otherwise you'll end up like our dear friend Josef, thinking that Aaron Carter is rock 'n roll. Siiiiiiggghhhhhhh..............................................."
245071,1,I do not recommend this item,"I ordered this item and it arrived broken. It was properly packaged with no damage to the box, yet the heater was damaged (smashed into pieces) and then packaged into the box and sent out."
245082,1,a bad joke,Big&Rich are like Brooks&Dunn Meets Cleadus T.Judd or something. alot of there material comes across highly gimmicky&I don't get half the hype.they are like the Spinal Tap Of country&I gotta believe that all the Forefathers of country Music are Cringing at this act.
245141,1,OMFGZ,seriously man I didn't really dig this EP.translating the name was a masterpiece but this...well lets just say bury your head acoustic is the only reason it's good.The truth is the same songs on this album are on the LP. It has a different vocalist but in my opinion anthony green doesn't shine as well as he did in the first ep or circa survive.sleepers > I wanna hear another Fast song. Enough said.
245160,1,disappointed,"I ordered one shaver and it came charged. It worked for about 2 shaves and then the battery died. Plugged it in and it never recharged. They sent me a replacement but it didn't work either. Neither of them charged. Not sure it was a battery problem or charger issue. Either way, I sent them both back and they said they would refund the purchase price."
245219,1,Not that great but dog is good,Not to exciting. Dog does some great things in the film but has this dark quality. I would stick with Tim Conway in Carol Burnett Tv shows
245221,1,This item stinks-literally smells awful!,"I purchased this cushion following hip replacement surgery. A disclaimer came with cushion about an odor that would dissipate in 24 hrs. Not true. I aired it for over 4 days-even outside in a nice breeze. The odor clung to clothing if one sat on it.So I tried to return it to HOMEDICS. My mistake! That company has given me nothing but grief and I will never purchase any thing from them again. They insist the documents printed from this website do not prove I purchased the item. Meanwhile, UPS has picked it up for return to Homedics--at their direction.I realise now that I should have returned it to Amazon. com , but at the time could not remember what website I had used for the purchase. Homedics also will not reimbuse me full price that I paid. I am sure this would not have happened if I had used the Amazon.com return policy. Buyer beware of Homedics!"
245223,1,Do not get for a Macintosh unless you are desperate,"Version 7.1.3b4Bounceback was highly recommended a few years ago in article in MacWorld and/or MacUser. I bought it based on that recommendation. I have sucessfuly used it to back up my computer, so it is not a complete waste of money. It is exceptionally buggy. The interface is exceptionally non-intuitive. The interface resembles nothing like a typical Macintosh interface. The program causes crashes and freezes. It is hard to know if a backup was completely successful. Probably some of the interface difficulties come from translation form a foreigh language into non-standard English. The upgrade for Macintosh appears to lag the upgrade for PCs by many months. I have used it with a variety of computers and OS configurations 10.3-10.5.If you have no other back-up solution, this porgram can be used successfully by a persistent watchful Macintosh-proficient user."
245286,1,No Review Stated This!,"Otherwise I wouldn't have purchased it! I really wanted a video that would lead me thru the form so I could learn by watching with the end result in my being able to do the Yang Short Form. I actually like the long warm up & his visualization of each of the moves (altho he does mix right & left up!). HOWEVER...when he gets to the Yang Short Form Flow....things go dreadfully wrong. About 1/3rd of the way thru the form he suddenly only shows the upper body all the way to the end. Since Tai Chi is rooted in the energy flowing thru the feet into the ground he has lost all the purpose of the form. And....made it impossible for you to see both hands & feet in conjunction. So you cannot see how to do each move in a continuous 'flow'. Sorry, this is not a good video!"
245372,1,Good Clock - When it Works,"I got this clock as a gift off of my wedding registry from Bed Bath & Beyond. I first turned it on in March 2012. It worked great for the first nine months, and adjusted with no problem to the two time changes that occurred while it was on my wall (though once it took overnight to adjust). However, within the last month, the second hand began stopping at 51 seconds but the minute hand would continue to keep the correct time for a few minutes until the clock would attempt to reset itself by spinning the minute hand. It would continue spinning until I pulled the battery; pressing any button on the back of the clock did nothing. I would usually let the clock sit for a few hours before I put the battery back in and the clock would work fine for a day or two until the whole process started again. Not putting the battery back in this time, and I'm going to look for a new clock to hang on my wall."
245377,1,Do not waste your time or poison your mind on this one.,"This is the worst film that I have seen involving Jason Statham. The violence, sex, and story are all a waste of your time."
245381,1,pretty dull,"Any influence in jazz is *extremely* overrated. Don't let that first line in the review trick you.A Great Divide includes your typically cheesy heavy metal guitar riffs, with small doses of Japanese-influenced jamming (such as in ""The Singer"") to elevate the experience to a level only *slightly* above average.This entire album simply screams of generic heavy metal such as what you'd hear in any given Castlevania video game, but without the melodic quality or the originality to really make this kind of music stand apart from the rest.The orchestration drowns out the generic guitar riffs *just* enough to make this kind of metal not unbearably heavy though.The fact this kind of heavy metal has been done so many times for several years now really shows how important the original masters of heavy metal are (such as Metallica) so we should value the originators and ignore the poor imitations."
245397,1,Much more bad than good,"I ordered this DVD on the basis of some of the reviews - it was a big mistake. While Terry Dunn is very relaxing to listen to and obviously knows his stuff, the quality of the DVD makes its all but useless as a training tool. The DVD does not permit selection of the section I want to perform. The section that introduces you to the basic forms is so washed out that you cannot tell what the foot and hand positions are supposed to be.Finally, in the last segment where Terry performs the complete form, the camera pans in too often so that you cannot actually see the form from start to finish.Sadly, I highly recommend you seek another source of knowledge for this wonderful art. I know I will be looking for something better."
245436,1,Save your money!,I purchased this knife to slice bread. It stopped working halfway through slicing my first loaf. The knife still would turn on but it the blades wouldn't work! Save your money and buy a different one!
245443,1,junk.,"I bought this knife less than 6 months ago. I used it mainly to slice homemade loaves of bread. Yesterday it started smoking, got very hot and quit working. I loved it while it worked, but it just didn't last. Sad. Now I am on the hunt for another one. Won't buy this brand again."
245445,1,Not worth the money; buy a good (expensive) one,"Unfortunately I sometimes have a tendency to be cheap, and then I end up a product like this. Pulled into it by my trust of the brand......I bake my own bread, and the first time I used this knife, something broke on the inside, causing the knifes not to move any more, at all. I haven't opened it up yet, but seeing how cheaply it's made, I have a feeling it is not a coincidence. Definitely not worth buying...."
245463,1,"Cord is coming loose from mouse, paint rubbing off","After using it for about 6 months, the cord had become really loose where it connects to the mouse, and the paint rubbed off where my hand is most often. I felt the cord may be affecting its performance some, so I have since retired it."
245498,1,Not even close to the older versions,"I got this for Christmas a year ago to replace my 1983 version. I use it side by side with my 28-year old copy. They aren't even close. The 1983 version has much thicker metal, a bullet-proof porcelain finish, much thicker rods on the grill. After more than 20 moves involving dis-assembly the 28-year old grill still outshines the new model. I have already dented the lid and scuffed paint off the new one! It cooks like the old one so I give it points for that."
245508,1,stops working after a while.,"This mouse worked great (while it was working). Now it will not click on anything without a lot of multiple double clicks, or clicking and draging slowly. Optical is nice, but I reccomend buying a logitec ( I have heard no complaints about them) or just buy a corded optical.I got this as a gift for a friend (Thanks Microsoft). Now it does not work for them and I can't find any information on the microsoft web site about how to fix it. I have updated the driver, put new batteries in, and it still does not work. Even if I do find a fix for it, is it really worth all this tr"
245553,1,"Don't ever buy K-Tel stuff, it's never the original artists!","I am not writing this because I work or represent a competitor of K-Tel, I'm just writing this because I've spent too much money on their albums that were advertised as being the original tracks from the original artists and found out later I wasted my money. NONE of the albums I've found on Amazon.com with the K-Tel logo on them have the original artists performances of the songs. None. They must be making a lot of money ripping people off."
245556,1,Hole in the sole!,"I've never reviewed an item on Amazon before and I just want to help someone else not make the mistake I made in buying these shoes. I bought them in August 2011 and really liked them - comfortable, looked great, easy on/off, etc. After three months, in which I 'd estimate I wore them approximately 25 times, there is now a crack/hole in the left sole. I didn't notice this until today, the first day I wore them in the rain - my foot got soaked due to water coming in the sole. For $75 these should definitely have lasted longer than 3 months of not even every-other-day use. Too late to get a refund or anything so hopefully someone else reads this and avoids the same issue!"
245612,1,Great while it worked,"We really liked this product for the 3 weeks that it worked. If your anything like me, You lost the recept almost before you unpackaged it so it wasn't worth the hassle of sending it back. Any way, the egg poacher just suddenly stopped working, and the toaster is slow and uneven, so the machine is not worth keeping if the poacher does not work"
245642,1,Just Like The Jurassic Park Series,"...Not everyone is Sergio Leone (director), comparing to cinema world. I would not buy this CD even if it cost [a lot less]. My policy on buying CD's is: ""Buy only CD if it contains over 80 percent of good tones.""Just a warning, please listen to it first. Your expectation from previous album may mislead you.Or just read the title ""After The Playboy Mansion""; people were leaving, or the its best; some people were there listening to Dimitri and started leaving.What is next? ""Return to The Playboy Mansion""?Be honest! How often have you listened to ""A Night at The Playboy Mansion,"" more than 25 times, if not this means that there is novalues in mixing made by Dimitri.Dimitri has good songs, but sad that he can't mix."
245647,1,not enjoyable,"Compared to ""Eagle in the snow"", this story left me wondering who really wrote it! From the very beginning it was hard to follow and understand. Eventually, I gave up and donated my copy to the library."
245650,1,Tries too hard-,"A lame attempt at hyper-cuteness. One of the strengths of the original Flatland was its timelessness, and universality, even with its topical satire. This sequel is dumbed down to the point of being nearly unreadable. Maybe this will seem quaint in a hundred years- I can wait. If it's ever made into a film, Moon Zappa would be ideal- ""like, fer shure."""
245700,1,3m command strips,i have always loved command strips use them for everything and everywhere so i thought i would step it up in size for more of the bigger things i have i ordered 5 boxes of the strips so i got 20 strips and 4 hooks all togeather out of all the strips 1 yes i said 1 has worked its says max 7lbs well let me tell you i put it on a 5oz speaker to just hold it on the wall so it would not slide off of my stand and it will not even hold that im very upset and will not order them again.
245714,1,"Very Short, General Document","The document is only 3 short overview paragraphs, there isn't any information here that can't be found for free online. I thought any document is worth $1.50, not this one - save your money."
245742,1,WTF?,No Dre. Day? No 187?So I guess they like to leave out the best song's from the game.Makes sence...This CD=Flop
245781,1,DO NOT BUY!,"I purchased this software, used it religiously, and REGRET IT! I had put my entire guest list into this software, every address every phone number etc. Now, the program will load but the guest list will not, it simply freezes on this page. With my wedding only a month and a half away I've had to re-compile my list and look back up 240 addresses because their tech support does NOT EXIST, I have called, e-mailed, e-mailed e-mailed, etc to no avail. DO NOT BUY DO NOT BUY DO NOT BUY!"
245789,1,Inaccurate with too much personal angst,I did not like this book as a guide to the camino although many may find it interesting to read before or after walking. Directions were vague and inaccurate in several spots. A couple of times I wondered if the author had ever even been there. Some spots were detailed too much and other sections were skipped over. Not a dependable directional guide.Very much about the author's personal journey with some interest from that perspective.
245812,1,What happened????,I bought this game used at a Gamestop so luckily I didn't spent much on it. The game sucks so don't waste your money. It amazes me that the makers of the game would produce a product with less graphics and features than the first. Doesn't make sense to me. It makes me unsure if I want to waste my money on Offroad Fury 3..I guess I'll wait until I hear some positive reviews.
245896,1,defectivebydesign,"Don't buy a product you can never own. Amazon controls this machine forever, no matter how much you pay them. They can and will delete your books off of your machine. Buy a product you can really own and control."

246000,1,Buyer Beware,"The concept of this device is wonderful!! My daughter got one for her birthday and used it daily. It was a great way to get her into reading more. However...I would really do research into other devices like this. The Nook as an example. If you look online you will find many ppl have the same problem we started having with our Kindle. The screen becomes black at the top of the screen with lines across it. It eventually works down the screen. Our Kindle has about the top third completely white with black lines now. It makes for very difficult reading. She is in high school and has summer reading assignments that she will have to purchase actual books to read now. I totally feel like I have wasted 300 dollars and in this economy, spending another 89.99 on a refurbished replacement for something that is clearly defective just not appeal to me. I will do research on other units."
246046,1,"Not quite, there yet...","Close, but ... When this device shows color, and can run PIM applications, let me know and I will buy one. Many of the books and magazines I read contain color photos."
246056,1,"Stick With Physical Books, They Can't Be Deleted !","I was thinking of getting this. Since It saves space.But, upon hearing the news that Amazon can remotely deletea book purchased, and the only consolation is a refund, I decidedotherwise. Stay away from this. (Physically)own the book instead.Yup, it certainly saved space, remote deletion WILL DO that !"
246184,1,Worked great for awhile,"Love the look and the sound of an old fashion ring. But after a few weeks the rings would come in, but we could not hear the caller nor could they hear us. This has happened to me on two of the same model phone."
246186,1,For decoration only,"The phone is made of very cheap plastic. And the static is horrible - we have not been able to hear through it. I really do not think the phone would hold up to real use even if we were able to talk through the static. In fact the only thing it has going for it is the retro design. It looks great hanging on the wall but don't expect to really use it. If you want an expensive decoration to match your retro theme, it looks sharp. Just don't expect to really talk on it."
246197,1,Not compatible at all,Smeared toner over all copies from the beginning. I have had the 4P since 1995 and at this point I am beginning to be a little protective.
246233,1,made shoes not fit,The inserts didn't work because it made my foot much higher and my shoes didn't fit anymore
246236,1,2003,"It has been opened up before, so you don't know if he has taken cards or not. I suggest to not get it from this buyer."
246238,1,"Watch Out: This Gave Me ""Pine Mouth""","I love the taste of Mrs. May's products, but the Sesame Crunch gave me ""Pine Mouth."" Sesame Crunch is made in China, and contains pine nuts. Chinese pine nuts, as well as certain other pine nuts, can cause you to have a horrible taste in your mouth for up to two weeks after ingestion. Everything you eat tastes bitter or soapy. I've had it for five days now -- blech. No more Sesame Crunch for me."
246258,1,Pleasurecraft pleasures a little,Not good acting. Some Sex scenes not too hot. Last one is best between Amber Newman and the captain. As he is having sex with her from behind her bare foot is touching his bare foot. He has pleasured reactions on his face while shs barely has none. 2 Stars.
246352,1,Cheap junk,The pin screw isn't centered over the plate. The 1mm pin is very fragile and broke after removing two metal flywheels from an N scale train motor. Stay away from this.
246390,1,"Great radio, as long as you keep it dry","I gave this shower radio to my wife for Christmas. The reception was great, picking up our favorite AM,FM and TV stations even without extending the external antenna. After only 5 days in the shower however, both the clock and radio stopped working and I could see water in the LCD window. This unit is NOT water resistant and should not be advertised as such. It may be OK to use in the bathroom but should not be advertised as a shower radio because it will not tolerate exposure to even small amounts of water."
246412,1,"He says"" I may not be the best""!!","Well I like him.He is funny and the look of him just makes me smile.And in the CD he says ""I may not be the best ""!!What is he thinking ..It should have been ""I may not have been the worst !!!"".But sometimes people like him inspire me ..and I have that hope that maybe one day I can also become a great singer !!"
246427,1,Highly disatisfied with Gold'as Kitchen,I would advise you NOT to purchase an apron from Golda's kitchen online. I paid $33 for what was pictured as a nice blue & white striped apron and yet when I received a boring plain white one they stated that although they had a photograph of the blue & white one - the second bulleted item stated that it was white. They refused to pay the return shipping to exchange the apron. And then after a bunch of back and forth through emails (as they do not take any cutomer complaints over the phone and simply direct you to an emial adress) it turns out that they don't even carry the pictured apron at all! So be certain you read all of the small print and disregard what you see in their photographs before purchasing. Dealing with them has been absolutely infuriating and not worth the time or money.
246487,1,Too many ads,"If you're looking for a shopping guide for Christmas, from L.L. Bean to Starbucks, this book is for you. Every other page is a compendium of ads. If this isn't what you're looking for, pass."
246530,1,Don't believe the hype,"After reading all the rave reviews for these I thought I just had to have them. When they arrived I anxiously tore the package open expecting to hear a big difference in sound. What I found was an awkwardly big earbud sleve that was a very stiff rubber (almost plasticy)They did not feel right in my ears at all, and the sound was lacking. Maybe it's just my ears but I find that the original gray rubber sleves that my e3s came with is far superior to these in both comfort and sound."
246595,1,Shame...,"I bought this light with great expectations - the reviews were good, etc. We got it and it was great - great light output, attached easily, however, it did not last. After just 6 months of use it died, and Brookstone would not replace or refund my money. I think $50 is a lot to spend on an item that will end up in a landfill 6 month after purchase - it's a shame."
246603,1,Never received what I ordered,"I ordered the BOOK "" Fasting for a Spritual Breakthrough "" instead I get a study guide. I called Amazon back twice after that and was shipped the study guide two more times! It seems they can't get it right when shipping this book. If you are looking for the study guide - it seems interesting but it is hard to know when I have never read the book that goes with it!"
246634,1,Canon Pro 9000 is pants,"I bought this printer about a year ago. It has been no end of trouble. On the rare occasion it has worked it has produced acceptable prints, but often with banding and lines. Its function is appalling. It is fussy, spends minutes and minutes and minutes gyrating and whirring and doing nothing only to end with an error message. It uses vast amounts of ink which is expensive and most of the ink is consumed in the cleaning process and the whirring that it does. I really recommend that you do not buy this printer. You will spend time with service agents, tearing your hair out, screaming at the thing saying, 'why is it doing that,' when in the end it does nothing. The paper jams, and the mechanics operate inconsistently. Avoid this printer at all costs."
246653,1,Main character is not believable,"The story line is a good one. The characters, especially Bess could not exist in the real world--someone would have throttled her at first mouth opening. People just do not speak as these characters do."
246798,1,If the stress of Christmas doesn't depress you enough ....,"Maeve Binchy books are typically a delightful reading experience. I can't say that about this one. It was a downer. Very disappointing. If this had been my 1st Maeve Binchy book, it would have also been my last."
246837,1,It was uneven.,"Franken is a very funny guy with a sense of the absurd. This is not his best work. While hilarious in the beginning, it became tedious & juvenile. I didn't want to skip over anything in case it got funny again. Disappointing."
246843,1,Don't waste your money,Didn't include ALL the main Warships. No mention of the Essex class carriers anywhere. Incredibly brief service history for each ship mentioned.No USSR or Other Nations chapters- also says it starts with Germany on p6 but is actually France. Other index info doesn't match either.Had to give it one star because they wouldn't let it go through with none.
246865,1,Economic recording of some standard repertoire,"This CD is a relatively inexpensive way to add recordings of some standard tuba literature to your library. However, I believe that there are discs of the Gregson and Vaughn Williams Concerti that feature better playing, better musical interpretation, and higher recording quality. Only recommended if you are on a tight budget and need a reference recording of any of these pieces."
246874,1,Three Year InSinkErator Water Heater,"We had one of these in a new home purchased in 2007. Sometime in the last few months it started leaking and was un-noticed until this week when we found the cabinet floor suffering from water damage and mold. So, I spent most of yesterday cleaning up and repairing and removing the unit. It worked fine for three years, but if you put one in, put a bucket under it since leakage seems to be a common problem. I didn't contact the manufacturer because I wouldn't put another one if if they gave it to me and paid for the installation. I bought a soap/lotion dispenser for the counter top hole previously occupied by the InSinkErator."
246939,1,wouldnt bother with it.,this thing leaked...not too bad but always had to have a towel set under it.not its fault...its the fault of the general design of the actual filter.
246960,1,"Poor quality, sorry to say.","A good electric kettle is a kitchen essential. The Breville is landfill-bound sooner rather than later. This made-in-China kettle doesn't reliably shut off once the water's reached a boil. It'll just boil and boil and boil and boil and boil until YOU shut it off. Indicator light? Nice flashing lightning-storm effect during the six months it lasted (it flashed beautifully for no reason). Now there's no indicator light at all. Is it on? Is it off? Who can tell? This kettle is slow to heat. Slower than a microwave, slower than my range. Disappointing right out of the box."
246993,1,Retred of the original,"This movie essentially just follows the same path as the original.* ""User"" gets sucked into the Grid.* User forced to take part in the games.* User escapes into computer ""wilderness""* USer travels across vast ""wilderness"" in order to leave/confront final villian.* User excapes back to the real world.This movie, however, does have superior special effects, but the idea of a world inside a computer (that each program is a little digital person) just does not work in this day and age. Overall, just eye candy with the same dull plot as the first.(Of course, if the little ""program"" people constantly ""froze"", with little hour glasses evenly, when there were too many of them in a room at the same time, I would have found it at least a little more realistic.)"
247047,1,sucks,I will never order from Amazon again. I can not even test this item because Amazon didn't bother to tell me the Conair Pro Color Accent Kit was out of stock before sending me the refill pack. So Amazon sent me an email saying they canceled the order. So now I have a refill kit and no way of using it. GREAT way to do business.
247063,1,Her worst ever,"This book was weak, watered down, and a waste of my time. Quick was once one of my favourite authors, but she seems to have sacrificed quality for quantity. A few years ago, I couldn't wait for her next book, but now I'm willing to wait a little longer while she (hopefully!) fine-tunes her work. The characters in this book are boring and the dialogue is asinine. I felt no sense of connection to Emma, Edison or anyone else for that matter. I don't think I'm too hard to please, but this was a terrible disappointment."
247086,1,One of the worst books I've ever read,"I don't write many reviews but I felt that I HAD to for this horrible piece of crap! How can a major publisher allow a book like this to be released? With it's ridiculous plot, incredibly boring dialogue, and horrible characters it's like reading something written by a dim-witted high school english student.Bottom line: Reading ""The Camel Club"" was a very painful experience and should never be done by anyone!"
247101,1,"Knock, knock. Is anyone home?","Okay, I have to admit. It's hard to put this book down. Two teenage girls living in the forest, 3 years of firewood, stores of food, a gun and rapidly devolving way of life. BUT, there are serious gaps in logic here. Not to give too much away but would anyone question moving your family miles from the nearest town in second growth forest but yet know nothing about that forest or what it has to offer? Would there be no adaptations to the environment in which you live? Would such a family really be so reliant on electricity and modern conveniences? Still, there are things that get one to thinking about just how well one would survive if our modern way of life were to gradually devolve to say the turn of the 20th Century. How well would we be prepared for that? It's a short book and a fast read with an alluring topic. See what you think."
247102,1,$15 Southern Sleeping Pill,"I was required to read this book for a college level Appalachain Appreciation class. This book was praised for its story telling abilities and discription of Appalachain culture. While it succeeded in telling a story of a cursed, inbred family, it failed to keep me awake long enough to finish in time for the deadline. The book entertains a host of narrators (maybe entertains isn't the right word) that losely follow a century of the Cantrell family. This book was the fifth book author Lee Smith wrote, following four massive failures. She continued the trend here dragging out a campfire tale for 300 pages. I reluctantly finished the book hopeing for a smashing ending to save myself from feeling like I had waisted my time. Unfortunatly that didn't happen. I don't want to spoil the ending for you, Lee Smith will though. Long story short, save your money."
247113,1,An unrealistic life,"The first half of the book has no bearing for the ""common folk"". It reads like a giggly high student who just became a cheerleader, and we're past that stage of life. She uses no tact or class in describing her husband's riches, her high-priced tastes, and her vanity. The business plugs are tacky as well.It may appeal to those longing for their lost youth; but for those of us who have real lives and better things to do with our life besides center it around money, expensive food, and looks, it's a dud.Other books are out there that describe the ""Before and After"" of WLS in realistic terms, making life applications that make you a better person inside. No matter how many pounds we lose, we will never stay young. My hope is that others will really do something of importance...with purpose and meaning, when given their new chance at life."
247200,1,I gave it a Fierce try,"I picked up a few of Tom's books recently. It was just the urge to read an author whose work I'd been familiar with only by name. I had been warned about Tom's liberal use of simile and metaphor as I tore into Still Life. That was an amusing read on the beach. But it all got to be too much to handle in Fierce Invalids. The clever and amusing passages were fewer, and certainly farther between. We made it to about page 220, and were somewhere in Iraq I think, or wherever our jaunt led us from Turkey. ""The desert spread out before him like a giant pizza."" Or something like that. Oh brother. ""Siwtters sweltered, but did not sweat."" I gave up."
247216,1,Don't waste your time,"After two chapters I was tempted to put this book down and forget about it. But I finished it with hopes that I wasn't wasting my time. By the way of totally disregarding marriage vows and committing adultry to confessions of a past abortion to doing drugs, I was disgusted with this book. The author attempts to make things that are wrong in society acceptable to make her weak character seem more human. If you have a high moral character this is not the book for you."
247355,1,Twin sister?,"Like many people, I couldn't wait to hear this new rendition of the very talented Siedah who's kept quiet for too long. Her first solo album back in '88 and the subsequent stints with Brand New Heavies lingered on my mind, and I rejoiced at the prospect of some more of this kind of music. How wrong I was - but then, I should have known; stellar musicians like Greg Phillinganes appear only on one track, and there's more guitar-players than you can shake a Gibson Les Paul at. Not to mention that musical heavy-weights like Rod Temperton are nowhere to be found (rather, heard!). So whilst this rendition can be described as a well-played Alanis Morrisette-Tracy Chapman-rock fusion stay clear if you want your toes to wiggle to some funked up soul / acid jazz beats. How very sad - somebody please tell me this is the ""real"" Siedah's twin sister!"
247360,1,Disguised christian fiction.,"The book was disguised christian fiction. after the first chapter almost every over page was quoting scripture or moralizing. Also the book was baddly paced and the ending rushed. The change from good to bad made no sense and was not explained. The ending made no sense, based upon the premiss of the book. Overall I could not recomend this book to anyone."
247452,1,hero of shangai,"The first movie I bought, out of three,is dark, poor quality and lasts 20 or 25 minutes playing; which is hero of shanghai.I wish I could have the real movie.pretty soon I will make some new orders from you, anyway we will keep business flowing for a long time,thank you."
247574,1,Out of Stock and Please do not reorder,There are much better shaver's than this one. It was painful to use and does a poor job of shaving. One big benefit of an electric shaver is that it gives a fast shave. Not this one. It required going over the same locations several times and it really hurt because it tended to pull hair out rather than cut them. Charging is about 5 minutes. An OK shaver for your office if you are planning on meeting people after work.The Panasonic for a little more money is worlds apart in performance and comfort from this fellow.
247602,1,This Game is Stu-pid!!!,"When I bought this mouse game it came spilling from the box. Now you know that these bosos don't even take the time to package the game properly. Then the instuctions were both in Englih and Spanish. I can read both lanuages but this was no fun playing. Then my cat eats one of the pieces and starts choking on it. This game is now a killer of humans and felines? After recusing the cat I continued playing the game. Once I got to the part were the mouse is captured the whole contraction fell apart and broke. After I was so sick of this......game I threw in the garabage. In the garbage. In the garbage. In the garbage. In the garbage. In the garbage. That is how stu-pid this ""mice of the trapps is""."
247649,1,Poorly made toy,The batteries would not stay in. It was too hard for my five year old to play. It may be better for an older child.
247703,1,Fever Induced Delerium,"I did not get it. Bored me to death.I know it has an intellectual commentary by Susan Sontag, et al. And is published by Penguin classics. But I just did not get it.If this had been handed to me in plain wraps I would have thought the author a thirteen-year-old boy; it has that isn't sex shocking mentality. Perhaps it was enough to excite back in the day when piano legs needed covers. I can only imagine this now being of interest to students of English Literature.I've read all the other reviews and the commentaries, and now understand what the author was trying to do, but its still pretty awful.I admit it was haunting and dream like in places. Thinking about it: that's what it reminds me of, a night of fever induced delirium.But it moved me about as much as listening to old Edwardian songs. ""Come Into the Garden Maud"" certainly won't get me into the Moshpit.Enough said."
247765,1,Look for something better,"Bought these locks for travel on a cruise and 1 of the locks in the pack broke and could not be opened. The construction is very poor and the mechanisms do not move very smoothly, look for something better."
247833,1,What BS !!!,"Pro-communists amuse me.Have you noticed the defense of the Rosenbergs stopped a few years ago? No one made a big deal about it. The mainstream media simply didn't mention the names any more. The defense stopped in 1995, the year The VENONA PROJECT was made public. The Rosenberg's WERE PAID COMMUNISTS ... and this IS on the record !!!! Any guess what Julius Rosenberg's codename was, according to intercepted KGB messages? LIBERAL!!!! Even the communists knew the American Liberal was nothing more than communism's bastard child.Sen. Joseph McCarthy vindicated! Ann Coulter Rules !!!!U.S. Government Illegally Executed Julius and Ethel Rosenberg... my arse! Go bark up another tree, Mr.Kenneth Kommie Kahn. Then I will just mosey along the path and piss on that tree too."
247897,1,This is the best book,I think that this is the best book. There are many things you need to learn. I prefere to buy everyone.That's all
247936,1,Important information is obscure or simple not included.,"The important information is lost in words, screen prints and file prints. It is hard to determine what is important except by the review questions and the questions sometimes cover material not even mentioned in the text. For example the answer to one question is DDL which is only presented in the glossery. I'm going to have to find another book to prepare for the test."
247980,1,RoadMate Dash Mount,I think some velcro would do better than this item. If you have a small dash on your car it won't work. It takes up a lot of space.
248021,1,Magellan Externa Antenna - Bad,The plug on the external antenna does bot fit the jack on the Magellan unit - avoid this until Magellan figures this out. Seems like they would use a standard plug/jack pair for all products.
248041,1,Lots of puzzles but poor editing,"I am hooked on Sudoku and it takes my spare time even if only a couple of minutes. Which is why I rely on the categories, I usually expect Easy to only take me a couple of minutes; even with medium I don't need to take notes. Unfortunately that is not the case with this set of puzzles. In fact, the very first one in the Easy category wasn't that 'easy'. But then some of the hard ones are actually easy.There are a lot to do and it will be fun. If not for the poor editing I would have rated it 5 stars."
248068,1,Disappointing,"I was very disappointed in this movie, perhaps partially but definitely not soley because I had already seen Eat Drink Man Woman. Eat Drink Man Woman is funny, subtle, charming, well-acted, well cast, and unpredictable. Tortilla Soup is none of those things. The dialogue and the acting are particularly bad here, with the exception of Hector Elizondo (and Raquel Welch is not bad in an unchallenging role). I usually don't mind Elizabeth Pena, but I thought she was horribly cast here and did an abysmal job. The actresses who played the other two sisters also leave much to be desired. The scenes where they are fighting with their current and ex-boyfriends are so bad they made me cringe. Ditto the plate-breaking scene. How sad - this could have been a great re-working of an excellent screenplay. The only redeeming quality about this movie is the food. The rest of it resembles a bad high school drama production."
248132,1,Preachy,"I am no fan of Microsoft, but this movie stinks, needs to be more documentary, less ranting interviews, tell us the history, the startup, the challenges etc......"
248170,1,Disturbing readings...,"This collection is terribly read, especially the woman's voice, the strange crying tune she had bothered me so much that none of the words registered. If you like to buy an audio reading of poems, I highly recommend the collection producted by BBC, it is so far the best."
248205,1,Lots of fluff,This book is full of fluff with very few details on how to do things. It is like a detailed brochure for Photoshop rather then an instructional book. It tells you what Photoshop is capable of and what menu to press but then leaves you hanging on how to use the tool. There is not a lot of detail on the tools only that they exist.
248244,1,SLIPPER DOES NOT FIT UNDER FLIPPER,These are comfortable slippers. They feel sturdy. The did not fit inside my flippers. I doubt that they will fit under any other pair. They are far too bulky.
248294,1,NOT RECEIVED IN 3 MONTHS,"I ordered this item November 7, 2006 and still haven't received it, as of February 20 2007. I keep getting emails saying that it's been postponed over and over. I called Amazon and they don't know anything. Be prepared to wait a veryyyy long time! If this item ever comes maybe I can write a review. Until then, I am waiting for an explanation from Amazon as to why this item is not being shipped."
248304,1,Disappointed,"The gears on mine stripped when a spade bit jammed...sounded like nylon teeth skipping. This is not a rugged tool. The ""keyless"" chuck should also be called a ""gripless"" chuck."
248313,1,What a disappoinment,"What a disappoinment... fortune cookie philosophy with smudgy and dark black and white photos... Doesn't anyone in Japan own a decent camera and flash? Another ""A warrior is all heart and is one with nature"" book... and nothing else. Don't expect to learn anything here, or even be entertained."
248331,1,Don't buy it!,"I have to say first off I didn't fully pay attention when buying this item, it is cordless. Not a plus for me, the charge only last about 10 minutes. NO POWER, I didn't feel there was a whole lot of power.I don't think it had much suction power. I was being cheep when I bought this, I didn't want to pay shipping cost, so I guess I got what I paid for. I have sent this back."
248362,1,Lizzie Boreden,The Lizzie Borden story has always been interesting to me. Been to the Lizzie Borden house. read books about her. And I have to say the best movie about Lizzie Borden was the one played by Elizabeth Montgomery.
248392,1,Bands aren't what they used to be....,They can't sing. They can't play instruments. Where's the talent? Do yourself a favor and buy a album by Jimi Hendrix.R.I.PJimi Hendrix
248404,1,This game was not so great,"well, there were great graphics, the plot was cheesy, the characters were idiots and the game play was horrible. I'm sorry but I couldn't stand this game. the further I got the more I grew to hate it. You do all this reapetitive fighting to get to maybe a few seconds of great graphics. they liked to talk to lot to. I guess that's what role playing games do, but these characters were just so dumb. So if you haven't gotten this game and don't know why you haven't, now you know."
248463,1,"No sale, I am afraid","Being a Jennifer Aniston fan, I bought this film sight unseen. YOu would think that they would make full use of her. You would think. But, the role was so narrow (acting wise), with no risks. The script was tepid at best. The director has all the power in the world. As a male fan, I do not ask for 'unclothing' or anything of the sort. However, if I pay to see a beautiful actress like Ms.Aniston, I would appreciate outfits more daring than were evident here; my grandma wore more daring things. The film was so clean, so unracy, it could have been screened at a corn husking gathering in 1890, one of their 'magic lantern' shows. Even back then, the men would've grumbled, ""Geez, perhaps she could've worn shorts, maybe a bathing suit, heaven forbid..."""
248548,1,WALK AWAY FROM THIS VACUUM!!!!,"It's pretty, sure. It's got lots of gadgets, ok. Seem like just the right fit for your lifestyle....NOT! This vacuum, although lovely to look at from the outside, is a horror of horrors on the inside. Who invented this bagless, 3 filtered mess? If you have a home or office where no dust EVER occurrs you're a perfect fit. If you have kids and dust and pollen and hair and leaves and more dust: just say ""NO"". I'm sick and I do mean sick, and tired of having to pull all the nasty stuff that gets stuck in the bagless cups filter, I have to pull out the various filters and gag and gag and gag before submerging them into hot bleach water. No, this is not the vacuum of the future unless bioterrorism in in your future. Step away from this vacuum!!!"
248583,1,Eat Static Fans Beware,"If you love Eat Static... you might not want to purchase this item. For years, I've heard great things about Ozric, and been a fan of Eat Static, and many times thought that if I ever saw an Ozric album I'd pick it up. Well, I finally did, and I'm so utterly disappointed I can hardly even describe it. Boring, boring, boring. There is nothing remotely like the Eat Static I know and love on either of these discs; I wasn't expecting techno, and honestly didn't know what ""kind"" of music to expect at all. But I can enjoy any kind of music as long as it's good music, and I just don't think this is any good. It doesn't go anywhere; there's no point to it. If it was just pretty swirling psychedelia as I've heard it described, I'd probably like it, but it just sounds like... band practice."
248597,1,Bad Product,"Hose has a split at input end of hose, it blows up large and most water leaks out from there, more water leaks out then goes through the sprinkler hose. product is basically usless."
248700,1,bad 5th disk ... we're deeply frustrated,"My son and I have been ploughing through the series, enjoying every moment. It would rate 4 or 5 stars without question ... except that we have one of the bad sets with disk 5 containing the same content as disk 1."
248811,1,crappy movie,"if you like the old ramblings of the very ""not funny"" old koger that is woody allen then you might like this movie. if however you do not and you prefer movies with good acting and clever humor then avoid this dumb stupid movie. what a complete waste of $5 at blockbuster - not even worth the dirty chewed gum that my shoe collected on the way out of the store.The worst part is that allen got the hot Scarlett Johansson to basically be him - his only direction to her must have been, ""uh yeah uh yeah yeah uh uh uh BE JUST LIKE ME! RAMBLE ON LIKE AN IDIOT AND MAKE CHEESY ONE LINER JOKES THAT ARENT FUNNY! YEAH THATS IT!""do you really want to see that?"
248821,1,Sorely Disappointed,"Three Musketeers is on my all time best books list. This sequel is no where close - not even mildly enjoyable.Three Musketeers is filled with action, laugh out loud humor and intrigue. This, its sequel, is filled with mind-numbing palace and political intrigue that is not very intriguing.The only part that was mildly interesting was how the four characters turned out after twenty years. There is also an intriguing descendant of deWinter, but his role is only sporadic.When I think of the original Three Musketeers fondly, I am sure I will have long forgotten this long interminable book of palace political maneuverings. If you loved the original and want to leave your recollection untainted - skip this one!"
248833,1,Oh Please!,"Given the fact that today's leading scientists cannot agree on many aspects of evolution, packaging that theory as a fact and marketing it as a fun activity book for children is a slippery slope. One of the foundations of science is proposing a theory and then setting out to prove or disprove that theory. That has not been done with evolution in (even thoroughly biased) modern science! Shameful that we teach our children WHAT to think, not HOW to think. The whole book is contrived and ridiculously unreadable to me since it indoctrinates assumptions as fact."
248878,1,good product but came damaged,I love the product but it came damaged I will not be ordering anything else like this from amazon.
248893,1,As if an idiot was asked to remake the original.,"It's that bad.I've always been enamored of the original version. Although it has flaws, it has always been among my favorite films.This version misses virtually every important point behind the original, and is nothing more than a sloppy, stupid, and ultimately incoherent mess.I really don't want to waste a single second more on this review. See the original. Please."
248997,1,not that helpful,"David Frawley 's books are in depth, technical, and exhaustive but also dry and outdated. He is a very learned man and I am thankful that he is presenting this information but it is not for the lay reader and it is not something you read and then make use of. Get ready for lots of details. I think he misses the forest for the trees."
249034,1,Don`t bye this one!!,"I am a collector of everything I can find, made by Elton. It is sad to hear albums like this one. One star is one too many.Arve, Norway"
249097,1,An Autobiography Disguised as an Investment book,"If I wanted to read an egotistical self-congratulatory book, I'd pick up an autobiography. If you want to learn about real estate investment, this is not the book for you. I was very disappointed."
249149,1,Not a page turner & not deep analysis,"I have read most of the customer reviews listed on Amazon - unfortunately only after I finished reading the book. I am impressed with the quality of authors of those reviews. I can not say I am knowledgeable about architecture. Yet that was precisely why I bought this book. To get more insight.What I found, however was a compilation of one man's opinions about architecture. Whether he likes this or that.I am finding De Botton a hard to read man. I think there is too much trying to make ""perfect"" sentences. However because it's not done on a perfect level, it gets tiring to read. I contemplated a lot whether I should stop the book after mere 50 pages. But I had to finish - God only knows why - so I pushed myself. There were maybe few points which I got from the book. But all in all it was a waste of my time to finish it. Sorry Alain!."
249151,1,Does not work for harmonica,"I bought this to use with amplified harmonica. It does stop some of the feedback, but mutes the tone a lot in the process. I did not like the sound. I sent it back for a refund. My Kinder AntiFeedback Plus is more expensive, but WAY better."
249158,1,"Pretty bloody thin, if you ask me","Is this a tome? I was expecting deep subject coverage. What we have instead is a reproduction of the API docs. Does that a tome make? I think not. What's missing? Complex examples. Real-world examples (who creates windows with API calls when we have TForm?). Undocumented insights behind the APIs -- things you can't find in MSDN or the Platform SDK. More than anything, this book highlights the bloody lack of good Delphi books. This one is definitely a pass."
249159,1,Great while it lasted.,"Was great, gave nice mist, but it started leaking at the adhered base after a while and wouldn't spray thereafter. I took great care to release the pressure when not in use too. The second one, the plunger broke. I received a replacement, but it started leaking too. Too bad though, the size and portability was convenient. Manufacturer needs to conduct serious quality control measures."
249163,1,"Works well, but poor quality","This is an excellent vacuum for those with only a few rooms of carpeting, especially if those rooms are spread across more than one floor of the house. It's nice and portable and easy to carry from room to room and up and down stairs. Also works very well. Perfect for a smaller residence or a house with only a few carpeted rooms.I am very disappointed in the quality, however. The handle is already shot after only a couple of years of very light use, such that it doesn't fold down anymore. The telescoping portion also sometimes doesn't lock. The cord winder doesn't work very well either. Not the quality I expected from Electrolux especially at this price.The bags are small, as others have noted, so don't expect to be using it a lot if you don't want to pay through the nose replacing the bags."
249203,1,"Started strong, ended weak","This Clive Barker adaption started off strong enough but had a weak ending. The concept itself was good but for some reason, something was just missing from the over all production.Technically, everything looked and sounded great. Decent acting and interesting sets kept me watching, but in the end I was left disappointed.Worth renting once, and there is a nice cameo by Ted Raimi for those paying attention!"
249222,1,These batteries are about as good as jell-o!,These bateries never work when they are cold. You have to warm them up in your armpit first. I want a good realiable batterie that will work in the cold. Besides the 2 pack of duracells are better.
249274,1,Don't buy batteries,"Purchased batteries one month ago. Went to use them today, 6-23-12, lasted 10 minutes then dead. Looked up return policy which ended 6-22-12. Wouldn't have thought I would have had to test Duracell batteries. Will never buy batteries again from Amazon. Better off looking for them on sale in store ads."
249289,1,Dumb,I hated this game. it was hard to figure out how to play. I never liked it. it is an extremely stupid game. dont buy it. save yourselves.
249291,1,Better luck next time . . . .,"This album reminds me of why I stopped buying albums. One or two good songs just doesn't justify spending the money. I became interested in Rilo Kiley after listening to Execution of All Things. Sadly, this album is a let down. The music isn't very catchy and has too many long lyrics that sound forced."
249299,1,Poor quality transfer,"I bought this simply because it is the unrated version. I already own the UK release of this film which is not uncut, however, I will not be watching this ""Tokyo Shock"" version ever again, uncut it may be but the picture quality is appalling!! It's dark, the colours are washed out and the whole thing has a murky, out of focus look about it, compared it to the ""Premier Asia"" UK release which is bright, colourful crisp and clear. There really is no excuse for this lacklustre effort, it seems to be pure shoddiness and a let's get it in the shops ASAP approach instead of the care and dedication to get a quality product on the market for the fans of the market. My recommendation??? Get the UK, ""Premier Asia"" version, it may be slightly trimmed but it is a far better product and has a host of extra's to boot, you won't be disappointed!!"
249345,1,"Same old, Same old","There was nothing new or original in this book. Its the same basic plot and characters of her last few books, but with less charm and wit. I'd skip this one and hope she captures a spark in her next novel."
249390,1,There is a reason this controller costs less,"It costs less than the official Nintendo controller. Thats the only good thing about it. When I got mine for Christmas, It worked once, and never worked again. I couldnt figure out what the problem was, so I took it back to the game store, and the guy there told me that other people had the same problem!Also, the controll stick, side buttons, and A buttons are different - they are not as comfortable or as easy to use as the Nintendo's controller. I suggest you buy a controller made by Nintendo. It may cost a little more, but you can be sure, you'll love it."
249408,1,Not up to Fodor's usual Standards,"I would recommend this book only if you are looking for information on places to stay. If you already have accomodations booked, save your money. Restaurant and sightseeing information is readily available at the airport in numerous free publications. The book appears to have been thrown together with a lot of generic Carribean information included that does not pertain to Aruba. For example, the book tells you to use only bottled water and to avoid ice. This is ridiculous on Aruba which has an excellent public water supply system."
249548,1,Bought it for one song only...,"This is not my favorite genre of music, however I was hooked on the cut ""Ashokan Farewell"" that I had heard earlier. I saw the album on Amazon & took a chance. It is probably more to the liking of folk music fans."
249566,1,This book tells you essentially nothing about the topic.,"This book is an OK overview of some basic photo software techniques, but really fails to say much about digital photography, that being the use of digital cameras. If you want a book that's mostly about photo editing software you could do much better, and that's the fundamantal point to this book. If you actually want to learn about digital cameras and digital photography look elsewhere, because this book has very little to say on the topic."
249585,1,Not the 7th Gen product I'm used to buying retail,"This will teach me to ALWAYS read the reviews for even the simplest product. Turns out, this is not the same quality TP sold in 12-roll packages at the grocery store. This paper is ""unquilted"" and rough. Now I'm stuck with 48 rolls of abrasive toilet paper -- not the best situation after childbirth. Product description should be more specific to differentiate it from the other 2-ply TP offered by Seventh Gen. Very disappointed and won't be ordering again."
249612,1,customer service,seven brothers is the worst company i have ever dealt with. they are arrogant and have a terrible customer service approach. i can't review their product because i never received it. they suck.
249620,1,Pure propaganda,"The core of the story cannot be validated - this is just another attempt for someone to exploit the election and partisanship in this country to make a few bucks, a real disappointment."
249657,1,Horrible,"I wish I knew this warning before I bought this. Because the place I bought it from off amazon, won't get back to me about returning it. So Im stuck with it.WARNINGWILL NOT WORK WITH VERIZON PHONES!!!!!!!!!!!!"
249720,1,tossed it in the trash,"I'm not one for throwing things away. I'm a serious pack rat, but this board was defective. I downloaded the stuff I was supposed to and never could get it working. I even had my Tech buddy see if it was just me doing something wrong. Shift button never worked, and drivers never worked right either. I ended up tossing it and went with a left handed game controller instead. Zboard had the right idea, the emote buttons and PVP set up was such a cool idea, I just wish I could have made it work right."
249753,1,"Beware of known problem - ""Remove the Cassette""","I owned this camera for a short time. When it was working, it was a nice camcorder that took nice video and was pretty simple to use. However, after a few tapes, the tape started to eject no matter what I did and always displayed an error message ""Remove the Cassette"". I did some research online and was amazed to find how many people have experienced the same problem. The camera now no longer works because it will not accept any tapes. As soon as you try to put them in, it ejects them out with this error message. It sounds like Canon is not exactly easy to deal with on this issue and the problem is chronic and affects alot of MiniDV camcorders in it's line. This was my 2nd defective Canon DV camcorder in the last 2 years. I think I am staying away from Canon in the future - very bad experiences and the quality is very poor."
249770,1,Understanding What Your Order,"I was happy to have found the book I had been seeking, and trusted, (a word that should never be utilized in net-purchases)it to be new or nearly so, as the price was just that. However when I received the book I found reader notes amuck.I seldom if ever destroy the sacred pages of a book, especially one by such a beloved author with mindless ramblings but others do it and that is fine for them but they should NEVER attempt their resale with-out notice. This book is useless to me!"
249840,1,Is ZERO stars a possibilty?,After being forced to read it for summer reading i have wondered why anyone would CHOOSE to read this book. What is it with making high school students read books such as this one or THe Woman Warrior with a Chinese American background. DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK!
249922,1,unimaginably hard to listen to,"I don't even know where to begin, but this was without a doubt the worst CD I ever bought. I own over 100 blues CD's of various artists A to Z, and this one is the only one I wanted to throw in the trash before I even got through with it. You can not even get to hear the guitar because this mans voice is just absolutely aggravating. I can't even describe it. Is it screaming? But to tell you how I feel, I would rather listen to a jackhammer, or fog horn, going off repeatedly in my living room before I would ever play this CD again. I have to admit, I am no authority here, and I could be quite wrong about this CD, but take my advice for what its worth. And definitely buy something else."
249923,1,Same OLD Joey,"Joey's tenacity in the face of adversity is commendable. I did not enjoy reading about it, though. I took his advice...one day at a time? One page, a day at a time."
249982,1,SURE NOT,"I TOOK A WHOLE MONTH FOR THIS PRODUCT TO ARRIVE, I CONTACT THE SELLER TWICE AND SHE TOLD ME THERE WAS PROBLEM WITH THE SHIPPING AND SHE WILL SEND ME AN EMAIL WHEN THE PRODUCT WAS READY TO SHIP. IN THE WHOLE MONTH I DIDNT RECIVE NO EMAIL ABOAU THIS ALL THE EMAIL THAT I RECEIVED WAS SAYING THAT SORRY ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND ALL THAT.THE PRODUCT IS GREAT THE SELLER AND ALL THAT NOT THE BEST"
249991,1,"""5 Equations"" could use improvement","I was dissapointed in ""5 Equations."" I read it because it was a selection that my book group had chosen. The book is basically a history of science book with a little math mixed in. I found many of the biographies lacking in depth and the ""Veni, Vidi, Vici"" format was sometimes confusing for me. The Newton and Bernuli sections were especially confusing because I found it difficult to always understand what generation the author was talking about unless I really went through and thought about it. That was quite frustrating. The only redeeming quality of the book is that even though the biographies lacked depth, they were able to provide a glimpse into the thinking of the scientific community."
249995,1,no one knows,"NO ONE really knows who killed Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman. But millions of people believe they know.The evidence was bungled, the trial was bungled, the media set a new level of media madness, and millions of people instantly assumed he did it. When a policeman or detective questions a man whom they already believe to be guilty, they ask questions that show their bias and they press on the man pushing for lies---again because they already ""know"" he is guilty.That alone ruins the validity of the accusations and the investigation. So, not only was there a murder tragedy, but the investigation and trial were disasters--thus a second tragedy."

250166,1,Gap,"Just to be clear, there is a gap between some of the balls on this item. On top of that, one of the balls aren't aligned perfectly with the rest, meaning the center of the ball isn't hitting the center of the other ball. Due to these errors, the balls transfer force less efficiently than the should and continue for a shorter period than if they were aligned. Also, I'm not sure if this is just an amazon thing or this specific seller, but they don't return the cost of shipping which is about 7 bucks."
250219,1,Poor effort from New Riders,After seeing that the average number of stars given for this book is 4 I am left wondering whether I have a completely different version on my hands. It is bad enough that the book wasn't edited properly before release - a 28 page errata is available on their internet site - but there are also numerous technical faults that leave me qestioning the information I read. I am about to sit the final exam in my CLP. On reflection I would have been better off downloading documentation from the Lotus site (as I ended up doing) and paying for dedicated exam CDs instead of buying this book To add insult to injury the publishers suggest that they are interested in feedback as part of continuous improvement. I emailed them 6 weeks ago - still no response.
250225,1,Have a real body? Skip this book.,"If you have wide hips, big thighs, or narrow shoulders, which are some of the most common body issues women have, you will find this book useless: these issues are not even mentioned. You'll also get no help if you have a combination of issues - like both a ""big butt"" and ""no boobs"", as the authors describe them - because what you should wear to hide one problem might accentuate another. The fun approach and decent explanations of the issues that they do address can't make up for not addressing some major points."
250320,1,Disappointed,The show is really funny but the audio on the disc is not so good. I watched the 2nd disc once and now it doesn't play anymore. If it does come on it's like watching a scratched up disc that constantly skips and freezes.
250327,1,The Donovan Legacy,"I LOVE Nora Roberts. Very disappointed with this whole series. Tried to read the first and second parts of this book...wasn't even intrigued enough to look into the third section. Just my own opinion...wasn't aware of these fantasy types from Ms. Roberts. Do not like this type of story line..at all. There's fiction and then there's just plain hokey.......... I'll stick to Ms. Roberts with a plot, such as Carnal Innocence...a good story with some sizzle!"
250348,1,"Works well, but not durable","Tel-Time IV Talking Watch-English-UnisexI have bought many (at least 5) of these watches for my Mother in Law. The watch is functional, easy to set with a dial, rather than a non-intuitive button sequence to set the time. The problem is with the durability of the rubber strap on the watch, which is where it always fails, right next to the lugs on the watch. This watch used to be $9.95, which made it less painful to replace frequently. The most recent one lasted about 2 months!I am going to try a different one, with a slip on metal band, and see how that works. She is hard of hearing as well, and this watch was loud enough.So, my overall opinion is....good AND bad!"
250361,1,Damages wall,"Doesn't stick on its own... or with wall base adhesive or even super glue. Curls away from the wall and the lip that protects the edge of your flooring is not pre-bent, so it continually pushes this worthless product away from where it's needed. Would give this no stars if possible."
250375,1,Kooky and mildly pointless....,"Yes, I get it. Kids are supposed to be imaginative. Okay so why wasn't the story? You have AnnaSophia Robb staring (brilliantly I might add) in a flick about an adolescent with an overactive imagination... yet her imagination is depicted for all of 20 minutes in a 90 minute flick. The creatures are mindless cardboard cutouts, meant to represent real-life characters in their everyday world, but they wind up being boring parodies of themself.The movie had great potential. Lots of area for conflict, what with a controlling ""down on his luck"" deadbeat dad and all. But in the end, the film would have been better if it had gone unmade. Or perhaps benefitted from about another half hour actually IN Terabithia."
250381,1,Not really a children's film.,"I bought this DVD as a flick some children I babysit could watch. Good thing I watched it before they did. I have to say it's not really a children's movie & it is a bit of a downer as well. The preview makes one think it's a real fantasy film but, alas, it's short on fantasy & humor. NOT a feel good movie, IMHO."
250405,1,Poor customer support,"This software has many problems, to many to list. The most difficult part is the lack of direct customer support, only through email, and the company is very slow to respond. The fonts and graphics are very childlike and do not look as professional as I would have liked. There are better products out there."
250455,1,Romeo Gigli,The size was extremely small. Looked like a small sample. I was extremely unhappy with this purchase.Something this small should be given away at no charge.
250468,1,What the...,"What in the world are we trying to do here? Forget all the hype from the religious sect about the story, there is no story. One's soul exists as an animal that travels with them?? The; to top it all off, there is no ending to the movie. I guess the production team (New Line) wants to sell the ending as another trip to the theater and more DVD sales.Not worth the trip to the theater, and no need to desire to own this one."
250481,1,Stupid,I watched it on TV and believe me I would never buy this stupid thing!!!!!It does not even rate a one star!!!!
250497,1,What have they tried to the original movie Cinderella??,"HiI wanted to add my two cents, here. I saw this movie when it first came on tv in the mid 90's. I don't remember it that well, but remember being stunned and horrified of such a multi-cultural cast. I agree with the reviewer who pointed out how odd it was and awkward it would have been to try to explain to your kids why the king is asian and his parents are both different races. I hadn't thought about that. And Brandy as Cinderella?? Please. I did like some of Whitney's singing, but competely disagreed with all the different races in the movie.. and a BLACK step-sister?? Geez. And no, i am not racist. I just thought it was very odd and very wrong to have different races making up families in the movie. TOO PC for me. YOu just can't improve on the original classic."
250518,1,Unmitigated garbage,"This movie is atrocious. The Transformers themselves look awful. They're all gray and angular and you can't tell any of them apart. The story is boring and muddled. There's no robot on robot fighting until the very end, and even then it's poorly done. The insipid attempts at humor are probably the worst part. Sample running gag: a guy speaks Spanish, even though no one else does. Get it? Me neither."
250579,1,Avoid,"i actually gave this zero stars, but amazon for some reason (?) wouldn't let me. i bought this CD in the hopes of purchasing a quality piece of history. what i received was a CD in which the tracks on the CD did not match the tracks on the tracklist. it's a total rip-off."
250595,1,Wimp!,"Yes, women have the power (and we have the wings) as Bach put it in One. But I found this to be a rather sniveling expository.Art Noble, author ofThe Sacred Female"
250639,1,Too Easy,"I am an 13-year-old kid who started playing PS2 when I got it for Christmas, 2001. This game is way to easy. I beat Duke with Boston College 158 to 50, even though I had Duke on SENIOR. The graphics are bad and don't even look one bit like the real players. They all look the same, basically. It's also too easy to steal. Most of the time when you do a alley-oop it misses. The commentators are very bad, too. The only good thing is the crowd, and the glass-shattering dunks. Try NCAA Final Four 2002---it's way better."
250641,1,Not a genujine Mantovani recording,"Since Mantovani never recorded anything by Andrew Lloyd Webber, this is obvoiusly not a genuine recording by Mantovani. It is merely another example of deceiptful use of the Mantovani name for the purpose of ripping off customers. This is no less serious than the sale of knock-off Rolex watches and Amazon seems to be willing to do this over and over again."
250667,1,Beyond Gruesome,"This film is a bit of a disappointment. Despite a fair amount of unintentional humor (some examples of which are truly hysterical) the relentlessly graphic misogynistic death scenes make the film more disgusting than entertaining. A subtitle to the film could be MORONS WITH CAMERAS as it is ultimately a profoundly stupid, infantile film. It's definitely worth a look at least for shock value but isn't the romp many would have you believe. Jackie Kong's spoof of BLOOD FEAST, BLOOD DINER, is a much better bet if you are looking for fun gory psychotronic entertainment. Best scene in BLOOD FEAST: Ramses trying to decapitate the ugly Suzette."
250737,1,walk away,A very shallow plot line overly involved with the Los Angeles geography and less involved with the characters. The book reads like a script for a TV show that didn't make it.
250768,1,cd pens,"These Memorex CD marking pens work, but I prefer a finer point, these medium point pens are harder to use."
250832,1,I have reservations,"This film is a complete rip of the German film, Mostly Martha, line by line, scene by scene. Very little original here.Mostly Martha is a fantastic film and frankly, I had reservations (pun intended) about seeing this film because I didn't want to ruin the wonderful taste in my brain of the original.Why remake what is already a great movie? Just to get it in English? That's a sad commentary on American audiences.While most of the actors in this movie are fine in other films, they do a terrible job compared with their European counterparts; Catherine Zeta-Jones just is no Martina Gedeck who put in a spectacular performance as Martha.I urge anyone reading these reviews and considering this movie to check out Mostly Martha, it's a gem of a movie and a much finer portrayal of what is a great screenplay."
250836,1,Not a fun movie!!!,This movie isn't fun and I thought it was interested but nothing. Also they acting were so unsatified. Unfortunately this movie hmm I can say it's not perfect.
250986,1,Terrible case,This case does not work well. The case blocks the camera eye and the clip lasted one week.
251053,1,Metal heads beware,"I must write this to warn metal heads. This band [is bad] if you are into metal. This band has about as much metal as nickleback and linkin park. Do not buy this CD if you think they are heavty metal, they're another MTV band... They are not as bad as Linkin Park, nickle back, or limp bizkit but they are defintely not metal. The only chance I might buy this cd is for my mother."
251064,1,Less then 1 star,This book was a waste of time & money with nothing new or even interesting. It contains information that JHS student would know
251116,1,Tastes terrible!!!,"These bottles seem pretty sturdy, are decently stylish, and come in the right size, but when you go to take a drink all you smell and taste is metal!! It really tastes like a pocketful of change in your mouth and the smeel is unbearable. I had to give them back to Amazon and I ordered a Sigg bottle instead. Hope it works out..."
251134,1,"paint chips quickly, save your $","Save your $, and buy the plain stainless. Paint chipped almost immediately under NORMAL usage. I contacted KK directly, and would not offer refund, gave me a song and dance. Buy Sigg!"
251141,1,Items leaks after less than a month,I bought two of these bottles. I like aluminum drinking bottles because of my fears about BPA and plasic. After less than 6 weeks the white button that controls the air flow in and out of the bottle (as you drink) fell off and water now leaks from the hole that it left. The bottle is useless. At this price I expected better quality. Amazon were completely non responsive regarding returnig this item.
251180,1,Here's hoping for re-tooling,"I was just watching the box-set of the last animated series, and it's important to note that it was the latter half. Why? Because the first half was unspeakably bad. Bad enough that it's almost worth watching with company, just so you can feel the room react when Doctor Doom smiles bashfully at a touch from Sue's hand.The second season of the old series was re-worked to fall in line with the FF books people were buying at the time -- characters were more layered, the costumes were updated, and it felt a lot less shoe-strung. I'm hoping that's why Cartoon Network pulled it for now -- the process has so much promise, but if they're looking to dazzle anything but the anime fans who have no contextual knowledge of the FF, they're gonna need to step up the plots."
251223,1,Do not buy this!!!!!,This microwave broke within 6 weeks of owning it Because it was still new it was replaced 11 months later it dies again oh well too bad it is your problem I will NEVER buy another product made by this awful company
251264,1,Ugh.,I loved this piece until the clover face came unglued. Now it's a locket with a bunch of glue on the face. Sigh.
251386,1,It's not quite...,The 2nd day I used the fan it started rattaling. Now it sits on the floor under my desk to cool off my feet. While I have a real fan on my desk.Worthless if you are looking for a quite fan.
251407,1,They Killed a Great Story,"By this time everyone knows what happened on Mt. Everest in 1996, so I'll spare you the replay. Forget the question of whether this film was true to the written accounts, it's just a dreadfully written, acted and produced film. Those associated with this project have managed to take one of the most compelling stories of recent years and turn it into a very flat account about a group of very one-dimensional characters. It's just incredibly bad on so many levels!"
251410,1,zero performance,"I literally would give the rating a zero. I bought this for a trip I'm taking and when trying to reset to my own combination the lock did not pick up my combo.I tried going back to OOO setting but that didn't work either. Now the lock is ""locked"" and I have no idea what the combination is. When calling to get a quote on the repair cost to unlock I find out that it cost almost twice as much than the lock itself.I'm very disappointed."
251414,1,not authenticated,"This product is not authenticated with orginal La Mer,- quality even is not the same- after using skin got some red dot"
251584,1,"I Like The Movie But Buyer Beware, The DVD Is Absolutely Terrible","I bought this DVD when it first became available years ago and I find it appalling that the sellers on Amazon are charging up to over $150.00 for this piece of trash DVD copy. I don't care how state of the art your video system is, NOTHING can help the quality (or lack thereof) of this DVD. The color, sharpness, contrast, brightness, the lack of widescreen format, everything about it just insults the whole concept of DVD's and I even rate this as a very poor copy even for a pirated VHS movie. Hopefully this film will be re-released in the correct way now that Bluray has entered the market.So as I said, buyer beware; YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!"
251646,1,Don't bother,"This movie is BAD! Some artsy fartsy, indy followers may appreciate it, but we did not. This is not a horror movie and it is not a comedy either. I would call it nothing or a waste of film... Its not scary at all and nothing made us laugh. It is 100% boring dialogue that goes no where with no action or anything... Who did not see that lame ending coming? The foreshadowing at the very beginning gave that away... We fast forwarded through the last 20 minutes of the movie and my wife wanted to turn it off after about 15 minutes. This movie seriously sucks and I would NOT waste your time or money (seriously)! Go see ""Taken"", ""The Wrestler"" or ""Gran Torino""."
251647,1,Loved the idea,"Even as I was taking the tripod out of the package I was having problems. The legs were already starting to come out of the sockets just bending it around trying to straiten them, (It comes wrapped around some plastic pieces in the package to show the concept). My camera is a Canon Powershot S3 I1 that ways in at around 14.5 oz. the tripod could not hold it. While I had it sitting on my table, at least one of the legs would start sliding out causing it to fall. Also I could not get the tripod to successfully hold in place on the top rail of a chain link fence, even while using one of the legs as a support against a post. I even tried to wrap it around just the post itself with no luck. I really loved the idea of not needing a flat surface to use this portable tripod, but my experience is that they need to make some major improvements."
251684,1,It's not that strong,"After reading the reviews here, I got it from a local Walmart store. But unfortunately, it desn't work for me. If you never treated the blackheads before, maybe it will work for you. But for those who have tried some ways to fight against blackheads and the skin on their nose is already sort of damaged, probably this won't work for you, go somewhere else to find a stronger blackheads remover."
251765,1,Fragrance does not last,The fragrance is not worth the extra money difference from their other shampoo/bath products. It does not last. All of their scents seem to last just while you are using them.
251790,1,flatfooted and unmemorable,This book is only for people who become wildly exited at the very thought of healthy young women dressed like ancient warriors. None of the stories show the slightest inkling of wit or imagination.This book was obviously written merely to cash in on the Xena craze.
251909,1,not compatible,This product is totally uncompatible with Windows Vista. It screwed up my brand new coputer and cost me $130 to get it fixed.
251912,1,No sleep.,"I didn't personally find this product to be of any assistance in alleviating my insomnia. I found Hyland's Calms Forte to be much more effective. Also, Hyland's Calms Forte is a tablet which is intended to be swallowed, the Hyland's Insomnia formula is to be dissolved under the tongue and has an awful bitter taste to it. I hope others have better results from this product, but I was dissapointed."
251940,1,Not good,"When I finaly gave this as the gift I purchased it for I had to explain that I bought it online and didn't know what I was getting. It was embarrasing, I was trying to go for something chik to give from one mom to another. Ha ha it would only hold like one diaper and it was a cheap plastic material! Oh well"
251945,1,Product Has Changed,I initially purchased this product in 2008 and have used my eTrex Vista HCx mounted on my bicycle's handlebars for the last 2-1/2 years. The snap on the plate that fits into the back of my eTrex broke the other day. I looked up my previous order in Amazon's records and reordered the exact same item. The new piece is almost all plastic and DOES NOT FIT my device. Amazon even suggests this item as an accessory to the eTrex Vista HCx. The Vista HCx has a slot for a memory card for loading mapping data. The space occupied be the slot prevents the back plate from mounting. I do not recommend this product to anyone with an eTrex Vista HCx.
251948,1,Garmin Bicycle Mount not sturdy,SMASH...That's the sound of you $300 Garmin eTrex makes when it first hits the pavement thanks to this lousy product. The remaining sounds are the glass shattering and the unit falling apart.Keep it in your pocket or duct tape the thing to your mount. The screw in will shake free if there is any vibration on what you ride.You'd think Garmin would engineer things better...
251958,1,In a Word: Horrible,"This is a poor excuse for a physics textbook. The explanations are terrible: Dr. Tipler goes on and on explaining each topic without motivating the student with a real-world application of what he is presenting. Also, the end-of-chapter problems seem to be designed more to trick students rather than to provide them with problem-solving ""know-how."" Better book: Fundamentals of Physics by Halliday and Resnick"
252012,1,Battery eater!!,"I'd give this 0 stars if I could. I bought mine from QVC. It eats batteries. It opened 3 cans on a fresh set of batteries, then died while opening a can. I had to pry it off. I have arthritis so I thought this would be a godsend. Thank Gawd QVC took it back after 2 months.HORRIBLE, DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY."
252046,1,Not quite what I expected,"Not the original Betty Boop cartoons as they were but a recut ""remix"" with a voiceover by a Smothers brother."
252057,1,Disappointment,"I already heard it on the promo, but decided to buy it anyway, just to complete the collection. I'm also a big fan of all his previous albums but this album contains to many cheap rap and mainstream beats."
252082,1,Too small,"I love the look of these bowls, but they're too small. They're the largest bowls I can find that say ""Harley Davidson"" on them but they don't hold enough food or water for a 50 lb. (average) dog."
252105,1,low quality,"The power outlet adapter tip broke just from use and as a result, I can no longer power the etrex with this. the quality looks and feels very low on this."
252120,1,Laptop owners don't buy this product,This thing crashed my laptop until I finally uninstalledthe drivers and shipped it back. Laptop owners beware!
252137,1,This book is christian propaganda at its best!,"This book is the Christian whine heard around the world. It is about Christians who are mad because Universities teach everything in an open fair way instead of teaching Christian values. They use the guise in the book of being republicans not wanting such a liberal teaching stance, but you can see right through it. How obtuse for this nations Christians to try and make everything about them and their religion....it is a religion, not the way of the world. It is such Christian propaganda. I was disgusted."
252219,1,Jumpy video ruins this DVD,"The bands are great (2 drummers, 2 bass players and 2 guitarists), the video is clear and audio is great, but the direction of the video is horrible. The video constantly jumps back and forth between James, the backup singers, the horn players, at a lighting speed that makes your eyes get tired and you start to feel sick.Also, many of the songs on the DVD are not presented in their entirety. The band starts jamming on one tune only to segue into another tune.If the video direction was done right (keep it simple) then I would rate this DVD as 4 stars. Buy at your own risk!"
252285,1,Do not buy. Out of ignorance i've purchased 2 and they both do not work.,I've purchased two of these adapters from Belkin. Both of them broke after a couple weeks of use. My cassette player consistently ejects the adapter after about five minutes of use. I wish I had read these reviews before purchasing.
252297,1,Dull,There is too much sameness from one piece to the next. I guess I was expecting music from different places along the Silk Road.
252299,1,Better books exist,"Since the break up of our 6 year relationship I have purchased many books. This one was not as helpful as the others because the information was very introductory and not deep enough. It seemed like the book is saying that God is the answer to saving the marriage. Maybe true, but I was hoping for a book with more deep psychological analysis. I recommend the books ""Letting Go"" by Dr. Tracy Cabot, and ""Make Up Don't Break Up"" by Dr. Bonnie Eaker Weil."
252300,1,A nightmaire with no end.,Laissez Faire's Hands off was an disterblingly bad CD. Witch is no real surprise since Laissez Faire them selfs are nothing special. Lissing too this CD is like a horrbile nightmare witch you can't awake from. If I where you I would stay as far from this CD and Laissez Faire that you can.
252431,1,Big Mistake,"We had a similar juicer before so I thought it would be a good investment but not only did it break after 1 week of use, I couldn't get a hold of a customer service representative for 4 days. I was on hold for 30 minutes each time I called.It also doesn't extract all the juice, which is just wasteful.Spend some money and buy a better machine because this one is useless. It looks kinda fancy and some what pretty I guess, but no."
252433,1,Not well made,"After barely weeks, one edge had begun to unravel...with gel oozing out. The seams are not well made. I have had somewhat better results with the Belkin F8E263-BLK Wave Rest Gel-Filled Cushion Wrist Rest Pad, a bit more comfortable, although one of the two I bought broke down at the edge after a year (not bad) and began to ooze gel. Belkin needs to think about having their Chinese manufacturing plant consider quality as part of the product."
252499,1,What was the point?,"All the time I am reading this book, I am thinking what's the point. Yes, women get in bad relationships and stay to long. That's a given. THey sometimes meet a Mr Right and get on with a wonderful life. That's good. But Angela and Steven's story was so boring, so mudane and so not there. HIs ex-wife was hardly mentioned and there was no comparsion between the two. Scenes were overly described and most unnecessary. THe cover says the book is happy, sad, humorous and witty and climaxes in an unexpected ending. I found none of these traits. I can sum it up in one word Boring."
252572,1,Tee of Wooden Clogs,Funny I should get this email this morning. I am so very disappointed in the quality of the vidio of this film. It is so dark at times that images are almost impossible to distinquish. I don't know if it is how this film was originally released or in the copying of the original the reproduction was of such poor quality. I honestly would like a refund. Thank you.
252663,1,Not My Bowl Of Soup,"Im just not that impressed with these guys.They have some good songs; ""Our Lawyer Made Us Change"" and ""Dance Dance"" are the best this disc has to offer.While ""All The Gin Joints In The World"" and ""Sophmore Slump Or Comeback"" are decent as well.However there just isnt much depth to this genre of music,so it is hard to stay interested for long.I do enjoy some Emo/Pop Rock such as Jimmy Eat World,Brand New(Deja Entendu only),and Ok Go,but these guys just dont really do it for me."
252700,1,Groovy,"This album is way cool. It's possibly the greatest rock disc ever created in the history of the universe. Everyone should worship Hole and believe everything they say. Courtney Love is also way cool. She has the deepest kind of respect for her fans and she never steals her material from other people. That's so cool. She sings songs about shallow, self aggrandizing, profiteering poseurs from the perspective of a shallow, self aggrandizing, profiteering poseur. That's also cool."
252911,1,"Favorite Album, Wrong Version!","This CD unfortunately contains the recently remixed versions of these songs, not the original mixes. How I wish this was a remastered version of the classic mixes, but it's not. Why can't Rhino release a remastered CD of the real version of this album? Bummer."
252971,1,Can I give less than a star?,"You must be joking! I'm reading these prior reviews, and they are so one-sided for or against this title. I went ahead and bought it along with another title on ""How to Put the Two Together"" thinking at least one of these two books should have something to help me improve. This one ""book"" I must say is a complete waste of money. Am I missing something here?"
253038,1,What a piece of junk,"It looks good in the picture, but don't even think of buying this piece of junk. It's way too big for a travel clock, the digital and anlaog clocks are not connected to each other, and the other features are awkward to use."
253060,1,"A deep book, but at times a difficult premise","I had a hard time with this book. I started out liking it, and I do 'get it', but I cannot agree with the overall conclusion of the book: that the book of revelation is simply a book applicable for any time in history where persecution and compromise are widespread. As I search through several different bibles, look at the world today in light of history, and search my own feelings about what John was actually writing about and to whom, I am struck with the overwhelming conclusion that the revelation was and is anything but a kind of fuzzy, nonspecific book of the bible. Far from it. It takes more than scholarly logic to understand it. It takes faith. Either you 'see the signs of the times' or you have closed your eyes to the obvious. This was one of my main problems with the book.Nonetheless, if you have the patience, it may be a different perspective worth reading about, if only to see a 'possibly' incorrect interpretation. David W."
253064,1,Terrible Book,"I hated this book. Spider Robinson also wrote a scathing review of Stephen King's the Stand, which I think you should go out and read instead of this garbage."
253313,1,Just a toy,"I've been using Easy CD Creator since version 2 that came bundled with my first burner, and they (Roxio) should've left well enough alone a long time ago. In version 6 they basically removed all the tools that I used in the package, except for what they've chosen to now call ""Creator Classic"". I never was able to figure out how to create a VCD (DVD Creator's help crashed every time I tried to look up 'VCD').Basically all the functions in version 6 are no better than what may have come bundled with your burner drive. Save your money."
253347,1,Worthless,"The problem with buying online is that you can't see the item before you buy it. You can only go by the very little bit amazon allows you to view. In the case of this pamphlet, there isn't much to see at all. Poor, childishly sketched pictures, very few butterflies or moths included. I regret purchasing it."
253353,1,Very Poor Service,"Twice now I have tried to buy this sweater which was listed as in stock, twice my transaction went through and I received my email confirmation saying they received my order, and twice I had the order cancelled on me. Not really sure how people can run a business that way."
253421,1,"Please Google search for ""ViRobot unstall"" before purchase!","Be extremely careful!!!I have downloaded Hauri's ViRobot 5.5 a long time ago.About 2 years ago, I switched to a different anti-virus ware since my company bought the site license, I had to remove the ViRobot. I still can't remove this darn thing that takes up about 70 MB of my disk. The company staff gave me an incorrect information on the removal.Now lots of complaints are in the net since it has been extremely difficult to remove the software."
253441,1,Series Great--Quality Sucks,"I was so thrilled to learn that this series was coming out on DVD--I loved watching the episodes on tv--when they played.Once I received the discs, I wa disappointed as several episodes froze in the middle and would not restart. This happened on two different sets (as I exchanaged the original set for a replacement).If Universal is going to sell double sided discs, they really need to quality check somewhere down the line.Shame on you Univeral for putting such a poor product on the market."
253462,1,problem...................,"I am surprised that you are asking for a review. I ordered this item several weeks ago and I have not yet received it. Apparently, there is a problem in the order/evaluation/shipment process"
253522,1,the view of a strange woman,"This was my first book by an Algerian author. I found it, hard to say, kind of impressionistic writing, where subjective feelings and thoughts that occur at the spur of the moment count more than actual description. The main characters appear in the story as ""I"" and ""you"" and ""the man"". This no-name-man was married to both women, and the only time he appears in the story is when he calls on the wife to come to bed. The women, meanwhile, are described wandering aimlessly in the town, pondering to take off the veil or not, or worrying about her child who is with the other woman now. I kept waiting for something to happen, for some solution in the hardly existing plot,but... The whole book left me feeling uncomfortable and empty, maybe this was the intention of the author. Anyway, I think, I will stick to Fatima Mernissi in future, much more human and entertaining too."
253574,1,Bored to tears,I finally gave up two weeks into trying to read this one. It just never caught my attention. I wanted to keep going since the reviews were good and I've found Kalla's other books very readable. This one just felt overly dragged out and uninteresting.
253576,1,Be Very Careful Who You do Business With!,"I bought an air card fro this seller, and it was broken. I wasn't able to use it, and the person who sold it to me never responded. Very pissed I was. With electronics, you have better chances spending a little more at FRY's electonics or the like, than on Amazon. Too much hassel that what it's worth."
253585,1,Where is it?,I am being thanked for purchasing an item on March 12th which I STILL have not received today April 13th. I have already sent an email to request that this situation be corrected and nothing has happened.
253591,1,"Elegance Voile 216"" Beige Scarf COLOR",LIKE THE PRODUCT IT'S SELF- SATISIFIED W/QUICK DELIVERY HOWEVER THE COLOR HAS MORE YELLOW IN IT THAN IT LOOKS ON THE PICTURE HERE. THAT IS ALL. SO I JUST FOUND ANOTHER SPOT TO PUT IT TO USE
253616,1,horrible,"It broke within 4 hours of having it...I was so mad that I did not want to send it back for a new one. There is no point of getting one from here. I was walking with the bottle and it dropped out of my hand, 3 feet down to the CARPET floor. The bottom exploded and shattered. I thought these bottles were supposed to last long...this has been the 2nd bottle I have had that has broken because of falling to the ground."
253646,1,Curve much too drastic,I purchased this pillow to use while pregnant and struggling with issues of heartburn and general discomfort while sitting/lying in bed. I found this wedge to be comfortable only if I put another bed pillow on top of it. The curve shape was much more pronounced than I had hoped and I found the slope of it to be too low to provide the adequate support and elevation I was hoping for. It did have a nice balance of firmness/soft but I really did not like the indented shape and felt like I was trapped in a ditch! I'm returning it for the similiar wedge shown on Amazon.com that does not have the indentation.
253655,1,disappointing,"Ms Brown's newest book was a disappointment to me. It seemed as though it were written in haste, without her usual polished prose. The first book about the Jefferson Hunt was marvelous..the second not quite as good.No doggy biscuit for this one.The Hunt Ball lacks cohesiveness and a strong plot..Big letdown at the end. The sentences either tend to be run-on or very simple ""Dick and Jane"". and a great deal of needless description ...and most strange; there were innumerable references to brands of car, dress, food , and even hunting clothes and horses tack. [...]"
253682,1,I thought it was horrible,Bought a case for the community food pantry. Ate a can of it first.My wife thought it was so horrible she thought the homeless would be insulted. In my opinion it was runny and bland just like the Philadelphia Eagles offense. If I was on a food restricted diet I'd stick to tofu and veggies.
253686,1,Where are the Chinese?,"This book could almost have been written in the early 20th Century, by any returning missionary. While the prose is fine, the story itself is rather one-sided. Basically, the book is full of vignettes describing the plight of the foreigners in Beijing, but there is barely mention of the Chinese, especially the Boxers. Addtionally, the poor use of Wade-Giles to represent Chinese city and family names is frustrating."
253729,1,How un-original,"I have not read this book, and could not give it a 0,but the reviews say enough. It is insulting, as a silent-film buff to see ""America's Sweetheart"" under a picture of Julia Roberts...sure, she's a great actress of OUR times, but Mary Pickford will always be remembered and live on through her art of film as the original ""America's Sweetheart."" Anyone who knows of Pickford's astonishing work will agree she set a new standard in film, and it is a shame her pictures are not more readily available on DVD. Some available on Amazon are: Stella Maris, Daddy Long Legs, Little Annie Rooney, Tess of the Storm Country, and My Best Girl. Also Highly recommended is Eileen Whitfield's Biography, Pickford:the woman who made Hollywood. For the record, I have nothing against Julia Roberts, but I can't stand such unoriginality in a title. Julia Roberts has always reminded me of a gorgeous homecoming Queen, who happens to be a very talented (and popular)actress in her own right."
253765,1,Does not work for a Genie....,"I am sure it would work great, but it is just not comparable with our Genie garage door opener. it is a newer garage opener (purchased in 2009) but the opener did not work."
253799,1,Terrible album,"Don't waste your money. I got this release for some songs that havn't been released on any live recordings. Mexico is listed but not played. The sound quality changes through out the cd. The preformace is awfull. Out of tune guitars,out of key vocals,sour notes played on guitar & bass. They were really wasted that day. There are much better live recordings out there"
253808,1,"Very poor quality, do not recommend",When I washed this flatware in my dishwasher some of the knives and forks seemed like they were rusting or the silver on the flatware was coming off. I called Oneida and they are willing to replace the pieces that are a problem but the same thing keeps happening. Oneida said that if you have hard water where you live then this can happen. I had an oneida set prior to this one that I had for 8 years and this never happened. I would not recommend this flatware to anyone. The more they get washed in the dishwasher the more it starts to rust. Very disappointed and surprised in the poor quality of this flatware.
253864,1,religious cook book with lame recipes,"this cookbook cloaks its religosity under the guise of healthy eating, and is full of comments on god's way. additionally, it gives ""recipes"" such as the one for ""quick vegetarian chili,"" the ingredients for which are: ""1 can vegetarian chili"" -- PATHETIC! i was insulted by this book, which told me nothing i didn't already know about nutrition, didn't have any good recipes, and was evangelical. an honest and proud author would advertize her wares more transparently, and say that she has found health through god, allowing readers and potential patrons to buy into her beliefs or not. this book is inexpensive, but not even worth its price. if i not been on the road when the book arrived (and thereby missed the deadline to return it), i would have asked for my money back. now i'll just have to throw it out."
253975,1,Barely worthy of an after-school special,"This derivative, cliche-ridden movie would barely make it as an after-school special or a Jordache ad in the States. So bad that it's almost embarassing to watch!"
254062,1,An OK Photo book,"Not really the zone system, but more adjusting what you meter is showing as 18% gray. (Ex.= If a person takes a picture of snow, one should open up the apeture or decrease the shutter speed a full two stops to get a natural white. If no compensation takes place, the snow will look gray (hense 18% gray)). One of the first things an amateur photographer needs to understand is how the camera's meter takes light readings. The book goes over some of this, but in a different way. Also, he completely leaves out how to compensate when using flash. His suggestions only work with slide film and maybe a little with digital photography. If you use this system with negative film, the lab will over-expose it every time. I've also noticed my digital camera over-exposes some subjects if I use this system. A better book in my opinion is ""Understanding Exposure"", by Bryan Peterson. I have referred to Bryan's book many times and keep it in my library of Photo books."
254073,1,a major step back for Adidas,"I've sworn by Adidas for years. Tennis shoes, trail runners, and basketball shoes. They always fit perfect and last forever...until I bought the T7 ATS Trail Shoe. My very first run yielded a small tear in the fragile mesh covering the toes. The very next run resulted in the sole of the shoe beginning to peal off near the ball of the foot. I was shocked. I've been able to stop the damage, at least temporarily, with shoe goo, but I have a pair of Adidas Estes trail runners almost 10 years old that have needed no mending. I've put them through the paces in Africa twice and back to Colorado. I may put these new T7's out to pasture and go back to my old ones. Don't buy these. They look good but may tear from looking at them too hard."
254080,1,My daughter is happy but...,"This is the one item that my daughter wanted for christmas. She is very happy that her Barbie Dolls have a ""Barbie Camper"" (I am not telling her it is actually a Hot Tub Pary Bus....what five year old needs a hot tub party bus for her dolls? Despite her enthusiasm, the product is not worth the price. The fold out couch does not stay attached as it should - and is already broken. None the less...she still loves it."
254081,1,Barbie Bus - Falls apart - don't buy,"This bus is horrible. The bed/couch will not stay together and falls apart everytime you touch it. The bathroom door falls off. The shower head does not fit. Do not buy this junky bus as it will be a source of total frustration.Despite the lack of quality, my daughter is playing with this toy. Probably, because it is me that has to fix the dumb thing when it falls apart.When I was a kid, barbie toys were well made and worked. The design and quality of today's toys are so disappointing."
254103,1,Pass It Up,"I purchased the first Hotel Tara, which is Brilliant. Wonderful. One of my Favourites. So, when Hotel Tara 2 came out, I jumped at a continuum.This one is NOTHING like the first; almost all monotonal instrumental stuff with a rerun song at the end.Save your Money; purchase something else instead. I liked Lover's Lounge.. or Cafe Luna..."
254114,1,dont waste your money,"this book was gross! it was extremely stupid1 i shouldn't have ever wasted my money on it!!!!! the book really isn't approreate for 7th graders, all 5 of the books are not good."
254119,1,Poor excuse for a toaster,"I purchased this toaster liking the brand name but its not worth the money, bought it 3 weeks ago and now the button doesnt stay down nor does it heat. Thank goodness I did not pay that much for it. Now I know why they had a sale. Its the worst toaster I ever bought, I would not recommend this to anyone. The toasting button doesnt even work right you place it on dark and your toast is light. pay the extra money and buy another brand. For this brand stinks. It worked great for the first maybe 7-8 times we used it then poof it stopped working."
254129,1,ridiculous,"I had to tape the top on. It will not stay on by itself. Also, the handle fills up with water and leaks out all over. Good times...Brita should take all of these pitchers back. They have some nerve putting them on the market."
254132,1,cover falls off WTF!,"I curse it almost daily who needs the trouble of the cover falling off every pour, brita should seriously remove it from shelves and fix the design, I will not purchase another brita filter because of the poor engineering of a simple product.Otherwise, the water tastes good. It filters well but it irritates me more than it is worth. I never write reviews, good or bad, but I just came from the fridge to do so."
254163,1,Not Like The Picture,"The photo is misleading. The set of onyx coasters that I received is BROWN, not green, and rather ugly. I know natural stone is not homogeneous, but this is something else. Each coaster looks like a blob of something unmentionable."
254212,1,"Pops right off, do not buy!!","This unit replaced our other Brita on-tap filter and it does pop right off after a few hours of use, just like other reviewers said! I even have an externally threaded faucet so didn't need any adapters, the unit simply can't handle the water pressure. The older, non-chrome model fit more tightly and could handle the pressure, this one can't at all - shame on Brita, this would have been obvious from testing!"
254213,1,It was too much ALL THAT,"The story started out okay; mind you not great, just okay, and then it went downhill. After a while it was all too confusing and too mundane -- almost silly at times. My suggestion is that you borrow this book from the library. That way you won't feel guilty about wasting money on a book you'll never read again or recommend to anyone else either."
254243,1,this guy misleads people,"this seller misleads people. this is not day white, this is a knock off brand called ""phillip zoom"" daywhite which has bad reviews compared to the original day white so just know that when you order from this seller, you wont revieve DAY WHITE, youll recieve the cheaper version. your spending your hard earned money people. make sure you get what you pay for. this is bull and should be illegal, he is clearly advertizing one brand name and sending everyone a lesser quality different brand."
254366,1,brushes won't spin after a few uses,"The brushes won't spin after a few uses, I've cleaned the screen and tried troubleshooting as recommended online to no avail. It's useless now. The cleaning was subpar when it did work 'properly'"
254406,1,This vacuum BLOWS,"No...literally it blows. The motor was apparently wired backwards so instead of sucking the dirty water back into the collection tank, it blows air out the bottom of the machine. Unfortunately I had unpacked the machine and discarded the packaging before I had given it a good test drive. So today when I attempted to use it, I was greatly disappointed to find out IT BLOWS. My error for not testing it earlier...lesson learned. Also this machine is cheaply made...all plastic parts just asking to be broken. But what should I expect from another cheaply manufactured Chinese product. $150 doesn't buy quality I guess.Hoover SteamVac Carpet Cleaner with Clean Surge, F5914-900"
254477,1,Dynex DX-4P2H waste of money!,This thing worked for a couple of weeks then the top two ports quit working and now I am having trouble with the back ports as well. Don't waste your money on this piece of junk. Very poor performance.
254520,1,Just the facts.. and little else,"The book provides good reference information with regard to the basic price/yield equations, but John Martin gives short shrift to any discussion of the finance theory behind them. It is not just an academic issue since many instruments will trade a premium or discount to the prices implied by the basic equations.Go with the classic: Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives (5th Edition) -- by John C. Hull."
254572,1,Very slow moving.,What a dumb book. So slow you could skip pages and pages and still not get anywhere. A total waste of time.
254587,1,works sort of,"Considering the cost of this item, I should not have to complain but I will. This product only works if you press on it really hard, and then you still are basically pressing and pressing with minimum results. Word to the wise, invest in a better product or get a new garment."
254710,1,Gameshark Starter Kit for Ps One & 2,"This product is misleading. It said that it had 1,000's of sheat codes including those for a select few of games but thats all the cheat codes it contains. Also its not a real gameshark and isnt recognized on the gameshark site."
254721,1,olivella body soap,I bought this for my feet because they are so rough while it does it's job it makes a nasty mess in your tub..
254819,1,breaks easily,"I only had these for about a year and they slowly started slowing down. There's no belt, and the amount it would take to get new turntables would be ridiculous. All in all, they worked fine for a while, but I would recommend a different brand or spending a little more for something a little better."
254829,1,heaping pile,"what a load the middle songs of this album are.1st 3 and last 3 -- excellent, love em to death. that is if the middle ones dont kill me 1st. boy, do they suck. i mean thatt these songs suck like songs have never sucked before. the suckiest sucks that have ever sucked."
254940,1,"Story great! Physical book, not so much",I bought this book for my wife for Christmas. She really enjoyed the story and art work. But pages started coming unbound and falling out as soon as she started reading it.
255125,1,NOT MADE IN USA - ALLEGEDLY LEATHER,"In the description, this belt is supposed to be made in the USA. When it arrived, the belt was in a ""Made in China"" bag. I would keep it, if it were of better quality than the belts that come free with women's pants. In fact, it is worse quality. If it is truly leather, it is the ugliest sort. I am sending this back."
255139,1,Not worth it!!,"Don't bother. I bought this for my daughters 4th b-day (today). Now I don't have a gift to give her. I was going to load some songs for her when she opened it, loaded the software fine, computer recongnizes the player, but their own software doesnt recognize it!! DUH! After 1.5 hours of loading and reloading, boohing and reboothing I am done. It should not be this hard. I appreciate that others had the patience to spend 2 weeks waiting for replacement software and hours on the phone with cusotmer service but I do not, I have a party to get ready for. Just no gift to give. :-("
255183,1,A DUMB PHOTO BOOK OF ORDINARY JAPANESE PEOPLE,Just an ordinary collection of young Japanese people in face or body shots wearing ordinary everyday street clothes. Very few nude or provocative shots. Was this someone's first intermediate school photo project? I am going to delete Nan Goldin's name from my hard drive.
255240,1,"Do What You Do Best, John","It's funny how actors want to be singers and singers want to be actors. John is great at what he does. Natasha, I'm not so sure about. Ok, it's her fifth collaboration but that doesn't mean they were all good. I felt I was reading an 8th grader's book report: cliche's abound, settings are boring, dialog untrue to life and need I go on? Her blonde hair, neat name and green eyes might have helped if she could only write. John doesn't need any help; try his other books but skip this one."
255339,1,Started dripping after 3 years.,"I bought this kitchen faucet from Amazon in 2008 for $58 and thought I would never have to worry about it ever again. Wrong! It started dripping after only 3 years. Sure it has a lifetime warranty, but it's hardly feasible to remove it, mail it back to Delta, and then wait weeks to get a replacement back ... if you get one back. I'm very disappointed in this product. It certainly isn't worth the $98 Amazon wants for it now. You can get a $10 faucet at Walmart that will last longer than this one."
255424,1,The Last Time They Met,"I have been a fan of Shreve, until this book. The ending of the story is an insult to the reader. After reaching the end, I felt as if I read the story in vain, I felt the whole story, up to the chapter titled Seventeen, utterly worthless reading."
255468,1,Barfly Unplayable,"The DVD did not play on any of my DVD/BluRay equipment because they could not read the PAL format. This is a first for any Amazon product I have previously purchased. I rated this purchase one star because the DVD did arrive on schedule, though it was unplayable."
255544,1,a good product -- with a bad flaw,"Heavy base promising even heat, nice tempered glass lid. It takes care of business.But under normal use the handle on the lid gets too hot to handle. They need to fix this elementary problem before their otherwise excellent product can be considered satisfactory."
255545,1,"Never again, Maytag","I have owned this dehumidifier for two years. It has been serviced 4 times. Currently, the part it needs is on backorder and I will be without this unit for another six months. Maytag customer service is the worst I have ever dealt with!"
255563,1,Pan melted Danger,"I had a situation of the large round pan literally melting on the stove. The pan leaked a large puddle of melted metal on my stove. The metal was leaking from the seams at the bottom of the pan. I then removed the pan to the sink and in so doing the pan dropped aleast 20 pieces of melted metal on my wood floor, immediately burning and smoking. After throwing water on the floor I removed the pan from the sink to examine it and found that the pan had oxidized my stainless steel sink. This would have been a really serious situation if perhaps a child had been around the stove. Not that I am minimalizing my situation. I have sustained alot of damage to the kitchen in my Brand New kitchen. If you have these pans please beware of what they can do. I have written to Emeril's Homebase and have not heard from them."
255623,1,Poor quality rip-off!,"While ""Clambake"" was certainly not at the top of the heap of Elvis fun-in-the-sun movies, the least they could have done was do a competent job with the mastering of this disk. The quality, while not the worst I've seen, is below average and there are flaws galore, most noticeably at about 48:40 where the picture is so wavy that appears like it was shot underwater until a thick white line washes across the screen from botton to top and resolves the image. Does no one even view these things before the discs are pressed and sold? What a rip-off!!"
255681,1,PS2 Power cord,"This cord is not a true PS2 power cord the PS/2 end is supposed to have a rounded side and a squared side to match the input side of the PS/2. This cord has two rounded sides. It can be forced to work, but it not correct."
255766,1,A little too small,"While it may well hold 100 feet of 5/8"" hose, your garden hose is likely bigger than 5/8"". Our hose is 1"" in size and thus we were disappointed to find that this reel is not big enough to hold all of the hose."
255770,1,The Box,"This was the most frustrating item I have ever put together. I had all the sides together and the lid would not fit. I turned, pull, pushed, swore and finally precede to use a metal mallet! That was the trick. If I could have taken the box back apart it would have gone back for a refund. If you have the patience of a saint purchase otherwise don't bother"
255773,1,INACCURATE,"For those of you know are not aware of this, THERE IS NO CURE FOR DIABETES ONCE YOU HAVE IT (short of a pancreas transplant) I can't believe this author would make such a claim. As far as slowing or stopping it, save your money. Information about how to lower your risk is widely available FREE from many sources including the internet. For example, just follow a sensible meal plan like the American Diabetes Association advises and you can lower your risk of getting this disease. But as far as ""curing"" it? Nope. Not true. Talk about false advertising. What a snake oil salesman. Again, I repeat, THERE IS NO CURE."
255784,1,Safe for who?,"Petsafe is quite a misnomer, particularly in this case! Shouldn't a pet's bed be somewhere safe and secure? Instead, Petsafe has created a tiny space in the middle of a force field of fear that your dog is forced to retreat to in order to escape the uncomfortable shocks that come from the collar that goes along with the mat. Stray from the mat? Your dog gets zapped. Shouldn't the dog have a peaceful place to rest? Instead this provides the dog with a place to cringe in fear of a 'correction' from nowhere. It's so easy to teach a good stay or ""place"" cue that leaves your dog relaxed and happy to 'go to bed'. This thing is just cruel and unnecessary..Barbara Davis, CPDT-KA, CDBC[...]"
255788,1,wrong color,When I received the model car it wasn't the color that was advertised online. was not pleased.
255811,1,Incorrect fit,Reviewed the product before ordering with my car information and it said exact fit. but to my suprise upon installation the fit for my car was not as they said. So now i am return this product and trying to find another that really fits. It was a headache :(
255843,1,"It was very,Very tough to get some clear idea or support to make it work from the mnaual or from the internet information.","It is not easy to get CLEAR and EASY set-up instructions to avoid total disappointment of the product's inability to adapt as a transitional device to keep the functions of your normal land-line phones compatible.The settings from one's PC and the settings of the Skype network failed to create a constant compatible expectation for normal use.It either would receive or not receive a call or fail to function incoming or outgoing calls as expected. It worked than stopped working. It probably works but there is no particular set-up plan to bring the devices into a normal telephone network and no skype support that gives credible remedies or solutions. It is a, 'Houston I think WE have a problem' and Houston responds with ......?? It is not a We thing project. You are all alone.Good luck.Thomas USA"
255950,1,Vile,"Just an opinion, I didn't like it at all and wish I hadn't wasted my money or time watching it. Very overly gross and sexual not at all scary"
256050,1,Not heavy enough for a boat anchor,"I bought an X1185 in a weak moment on a Sun. afternoon when I had to print something important. It gobbles the expensive ink and misfeeds every 3rd page or so. On the other hand, it does scan very well. I'm going to buy a printer-only machine and use the X1185 as my scanner. [If anyone knows of a COLOR printer that is economical on ink, PLEASE let me know!]"
256092,1,Less than Par,I'm disappointed in the quality of this product. It seemed to be just cheap plastic (the foot rests) and shipping was extremely slow.
256154,1,"This is Handel, not Donizetti!","She ruins the great opera by using bel canto ornaments. This is not to the true Handel style. And besides that, her voice is so shrill that it gives me a headache. Look elsewhere for great Baroque sing...Renee Fleming's Alcina."
256207,1,Questionable...Again,"Woodward's sources are earth, wind and apparently fire since he cannot produce reliable sources for two-person conversations in this book. Didn't Woodward have this same problem with ""The Brethren""? Reader,take sourceless quotes with healthy doses of skepticism."
256269,1,Dissapointed,"Love the look but they chip very easily, my husband picked up a cup of coffee and the cup just fell off the handle on two occasions.I guess if you have no kids and don't use every day they'd be great but they are not good for a family or daily wear and tear."
256280,1,this charlatan doesn't even know what science is,This book has nothing about Science or Biology. This charlatan cannot even define Science correctly. This is a mixed pot of 'something' that has no depth. The book is shallow and it is a total waste of my time and money.
256281,1,Truly Amazing anyone believes this tripe,"Lipton is apparently gunning to be the next L. Ron Hubbard, with ""PSYCH-K"" replacing Scientology. Want to solve all life's problems with nothing more than a little positive thought? No Problem! Just buy my book, and take my class."
256287,1,Terrible Misrepresentation of Science,"Show this book to any other molecular biologist, and they will find it laughable. They will easily be able to point out the many distortions and manipulations of science throughout the book.The author presents himself as having great insight into human biology when in reality, he's just taking credit for well known, scientific discoveries and then twisting them to fit his theories.Sadly, this book does very little to add to the knowledge and understanding of the mind body connection. For more information on this subject I would recommend authors like Andrew Weil or Daniel Amen.In my opinion, authors like this one only deter from our having a better understanding of the effect that biology and psychology have on each other."
256312,1,Social Satire At Its Worst,"Normally inserted references to another work by the author make me cringe. Sawyer's throw-away reference to his book Illegal Alien however, made me sigh with the memory of a good book. Humans is undoubtably Sawyer's worst. The social satire is at best heavy-handed and preachy and at worst simply eye-glazing. If the satirist's weapon is the rapier, Sawyer uses a sledge hammer. The use of news clips is a familar device in Sawyer's writings, its abscence here is missed. I didn't really get a sense of how the world was reacting to the re-opening of the portal and relations with the Neanderthals.This book did give me a better insight into our own world however. After the upteenth time a Neanderthal criticized us I realized why our ancestors had wiped them out."
256378,1,Wrong size,"I particularly asked for a Slik Quick Release Shoe for U8000. I was sent a shoe that is twice as big as the holder for the shoe for U8000.Since if would cost me more to return the item and doubts about getting a correct one, I am left with a useless purchase."
256387,1,not good,"This product did not seem to work at all. The dots were all weird and funny looking. Maybe dried out? Heat damaged while shipping?? GOOD NEWS..the company completely refunded my money,promptly. I would buy from the company that sold them again. They were a class act, even if the actual product seemed defective."
256397,1,LEFT ME FEELING SICK,I think this product is contaminated or something. I tried if for a few days and was feeling very sick. Then I waited a week and tried it again and that sick stomach feeling just kept comming back. I dont know if there are chemicals in this or what but I never get sick like this. I just threw it away since I could not return it.
256436,1,Not helpful for everyone,"This is quite complete as a tool for finding service friends, but you must have some vital information (such as Social Security numbers or military ID numbers, etc.) for a search to be successful. It's not enough to know where someone was stationed (an Air Force base, for example) in what years. Maybe that was too much to expect."
256487,1,Could not keep my attention:,This book has some promise but it seemed to jump around a lot and could not hold my attention long enough to ever really get into the story. Seemed too slow and bogged down with too many details.
256494,1,Virtual Elvis?,"Now that the estate is in the hands of a corporation that is non-family based anylonger, we'll see more of these virtual things. I have never undertood the lore of Elvis. He was more of a personality than a musician. He played other people's songs. Never wrote tunes so he has that Sinatra type fame. He was more of artist that interprets other people's tunes."
256531,1,Hazelwood should've picked a different writer,"While I don't discount Roy Hazelwood's expertise, I felt the book was not well-written. Stories lacked details of the criminal's acts and psychological explanations were brief. There were many opportunities to expand on a particular subject, but instead, I was left hanging and wanting to know more. Also, it was occasionally hard to get past Michaud's style of writing. Despite Hazelwood's fascinating career as a behavioral profiler, this book didn't do him justice. Perhaps a good, second book will remedy this...?"
256533,1,"She exceeds the age limit for ""britney"" type pop music!!","Wow! what a waste of money....From the look of the front of the CD I thought I was in for a real treat...but it turned out to be a real flop! She seems a little old for the whole teenager pop thing. Voice needs work. Maybe with some coaching it may improve...And switching to a different market...like adult contemporary, or something, may increase her chances of success. But selling herself as a pop girl is just not going to work. Songs are way cheesy!!!! Not work the buy. Just my 2 cents."
256550,1,AWFUL REMAKE,"I think Mario Lanza is the greatest tenor that ever lived, & ""The Student Prince"" was his greatest album. Unfortunately, THIS ISN'T IT!!!! This is Mario Lanza SINGS SONGS FROM ""The Student Prince""!!!!! If you want the real thing, you need to find it on Vinyl or cassette. It is the actual movie soundtrack, & it has a picture on the fron of Lanza dressed as the prince, presumably taken before he was fired from the film. On this version, some songs are left off, the ones included sound totally different, & it doesn't even sound like Mario Lanza's voice!!! To be blunt, this is AWFUL!!!!! If you truly want to hear Mario Lanza at his best & performing his crowning achievement, I suggest doing what I resorted to: Get the aforementioned vinyl or cassette & burn it to a disc. I CAN NOT, IN GOOD FAITH, RECCOMEND THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
256553,1,full of defects,"I actually bought two HP 17Bii+'s - one for home and the other for work. Funny thing is, I'm seeing completely different defects on each one. My work HP, for instance, has trouble with the #0 key - you really need to watch the repeater to make sure it's getting all the digits. My home HP? Already crashed dead - twice - requiring me to reset and lose all my formulas. Without the reliability, I can't recommend this product."
256562,1,What a revolting development!,"Too bad Kurosawa's last movie is such a schlocky treacle-fest. I understand that he wanted to write a kind of final love letter to his fans and admirers and students, but this one went just a bit too far for my tastes. Kurosawa is not a stranger to saccharine sentimentality (witness REDBEARD), but this one went a step too far in its Pollyanna-like optimism. Faced with the tragedy of WWII (briefly covered and hardly mentioned), the literature professor who is the film's protagonist rises above his setbacks with his steadfast stoicism and optimism and the help of his loving male students who shower him with admiration, gifts, land, and a new home. I had thought Spielberg the master of the cloyingly sweet movie, but it looks as if he learned his nausea-inducing licks from the old master himself. If you like hard-edged reality, or are a fan of Kurosawa's starkly delineated films of old, avoid MADDADAYO. Can't wait to get this one out of my library."
256583,1,Dissapointed,"When I decided to get backpack for my new camera I figure I would get a Canon backpack for my Canon DSLR. I previously owned a Nikon and bought a Nikon backpack and was pleased. I have to admit the price is the first thing that caught my attention. So I started to read the reviews and found good and bad reviews, more of them good then bad. So I decided to buy the backpack and when it came in I was dissapointed. The saying is true that you get what you pay for. I like the layout of the backpack, it had plenty of room and pockets. The padding was not very thick and seemed like there was no protection if I was to bump into something. The bottom line is, I didn't feel safe putting my camera in this bag. So I did more research and bought a KATA R-102. The moral of the story is, Don't skimp on the bag after you've already spent a couple thousand on a camera!"
256594,1,"Nice bag, very uncomfortable","Bag is pretty good for a typical amateur photographer. Holds about 3-4 lenses on top of a mounted one. Has lots of pockets and compartments. Biggest (and only) complaint is that it is extremely uncomfortable to wear around. The design of it is too boxy and the way they designed the straps makes it sit very awkwardly on your back.I hope they redesign the straps, otherwise that's the biggest downfall."
256630,1,Included Sony Voice Editor Software Incompatibility,"I returned the Sony ICB BM1 due to the loud audible ""click"" it inserts into the recording whenever it is paused. Sony tech support said that it was a characteristic of all BM1's, not just the unit I had. Then I find that the Sony Voice Editor software is incompatible with my Windows XP Media Center pc, and the more current Voice Editor software which came with the BM1 does a ""dirty"" uninstall (leaves it's own dll files in the windows\system folder rather than the Windows dll files it replaced). This caused my Sony ICD MS515 Voice Editor software (an earlier version) not to work. After a week back and forth with Sony tech support, their conclusion is that ALL Sony Voice Editor software is incompatible with Windows XP Media Center pc's, and I was just out of luck that my older Sony ICD MS515 Voice Editor (and the recorder) wouldn't work now after working fine for seven months. I'll never by Sony again, and am waiting for the new Olympus DS-2200."
256706,1,"Great title, poor execution","The main concept to take out of this book and the only one I felt I could use was - there are some elements of our world that we cannot measure and Western science falls short in this regard. It tries to be a unifying book, which brings science and spirituality together the way ""The Tao of Physics"" did. It falls far short. It is long-winded, boring and overblown with details. It is not unified nor the case for the principles that would unify synchronicity to other aspects of science put in any manner the reader could follow. I was compelled to buy the book simply because the title was too intriguing. Sorry, some good bits here and there, but not worth the read."
256715,1,see it once,"but never again. My thoughts as I watched this film were: so this is what they did with rejected star trek sets, thank god they only translated every third line, I am not looking forward to the day it reaches DVD and we find out what was edited (or was it), and if given the choice between watching this film again or death - I would seriously consider death!"
256742,1,Inconsistent Application,"Doesn't apply powder the way that powder should be applied. First pump gets you a small air-cloud puff of powder, next few pumps - nothing, next pump - a large clump of powder lands on the ground; then it repeats the cycle."
256749,1,total rip-off,"So basically, this album has _nothing_ to do with Middle-earth or the Shire or anything remotely recognizable as Tolkienian. It's a series of fairly generic Christmas carols done, basically, in the style of ""easy listening."" I suppose it's decent easy listening music, if you like that kind of thing, but personally I found it unoriginal, repetitive, and completely boring."
256755,1,Audio/video,"When I purchased the dvd, I was under impression it would be a live video of group doing their songs. Very disappointed because only video on dvd is a Still Picture. It would be nice if a Tracklist of Songs was included in description."
256783,1,Great sound but doesn't last well,We bought one of these about a year ago. It has really good sound and we liked it for awhile. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be made well. The IPOD connectors get pushed out of shape and the IPOD doesn't keep contact. Now we use a dish towel to make sure the IPOD stays in place and connected. The remote stopped working about a month ago as well.I'll try do a video of our wonderful dishtowel supported iYiYi and how the IPOD will not stay connected.
256811,1,Rascist Swine,"I don't know where this author gets his ideas. Where does he come off calling the South Vietnemese ""Snookers? "" They were our allies for crying out loud! Without their help, Communism would today be running rampant throughout our glorious nation, and we would all be atheists! This man should try living in a VietCong death camp for four years, 3 months, 6 days -- and then critize the US!"
256822,1,The first (and hopefully last) Disney let-down,"Well, even the best have to fall someday, and Disney managed it with the release of Flubber. Robin Williams, who isn't greatly entertaining at the best of times, is actually quite acceptable in this film. However the general jist of the story, and the comedy, and the adventure, and the dialogue ...etc etc has all been done better before. The story follows a professor (Robin Williams) and his discovery of an exciting new elastic material - technically known as Flubber - though he is hunted down by corporate businesses, whilst his absent-mindedness severely puts his love plans on hold. Predictable, dull and a genuine failure of a film. The 1967 original is much better.Looking for good family entertainment? Go buy Free Willy"
256825,1,Biovault 2.0 quit working,"I let the battery run down, I replace with new batteries ,now it does not recognize my fingerprint and I can't find a help website.The web site in the handbook does not work."
256877,1,"my glasses barely fit in there, and it's painful wear both my glasses and goggles at the same time","my glasses barely fit in there, and it's painful wear both my glasses and goggles at the same time"
256883,1,Not interesting,"I was looking for something better than this. It was a coloring book and I thought it was a reading book. It did have good coloring pictures, but I was looking for something more. I was disappointed when it arrived. My fault I just didn't realize it was a coloring book."
256887,1,I guess Musicology was the last one...,"I'm a die hard Prince fan, and as such, I must say that Planet Earth sucks. I was hoping that 3121 was a one-time disappointment...but i was wrong. I wish I could get my money back. Sad to say, but I think the Prince who gave us classics like ""Let's Go Crazy"", ""Adore"", ""Purple Rain"", ""Kiss"", etc etc etc (the list goes on and on)...is dead."
256967,1,Very disappointing as no book has yet arrived,"As no book as arrived , the service is very disappointing. I have had two requests to review the service and product that are yet to materialize."
257038,1,"Stay Away, No service,","I bought on in May, came with a defect, sent it to panasonic, they do not respond, do not have parts, do not provide feed back.Wasted money, stay away"
257044,1,Terrible Product,"Followed directions exactly as written, and not only were the superficial scratches still there, but the lenses were blurry and almost looked as though there was an oil sheen on each lens. Fortunately the spray did remove the product and I believe i just wasted 40 minutes and ten bucks to clean my glasses. Buyer beware!"
257091,1,Difficult to follow,"I had to order this book for my college philosophy course and I must say, out of the 3 years i've been in college, this has been my least favorite book. It is extremely hard to understand and follow. However, if you're looking for ways to fall asleep at night, then I definitely recomind this!"
257101,1,Plotless,"This is the worst short story anthology I've ever read. Many of the stories are plotless rambles. Many are incoherent. Maybe they're edgy, but so what if they aren't about anything and you can't understand them?"
257103,1,WASTE OF MONEY 3,"I bought this with some other reggae CD's. This is painful too listen to as well. The singer on the second cut doesn't even know the words!.I AM SORRY I BOUGHT THIS CD. I bought the whole series. I use one of them as a coaster and the others i gave to my nephew who is 13. He won't know the difference, but you will."
257125,1,What's the rave on this?,"Mediocre to boring -- Held a few interesting facts, but all in all...one great big yawn! Do not recommend for any reason!"
257128,1,The Bull Starts Here,"""Today, Bob Greene is a celebrated, nationally-syndicated columnist. In 1964, he was a seventeen-year-old Ohio high school kid. And he kept a diary.""It's all here. The teenage girl who got away...""Snicker, snort."
257178,1,Not for the young,"After reading all the WONDERFUL reviews about this movie, I purchased it for my family. My seven year old, along with my wife and myself sat down to watch a this great movie.We saw creatures that were quite disturbing in their features.A little girl's mother gets killed.Her daddy gets killed.Her brother gets killed.All on screen.I would keep it away from those children who are sensitive, those who have experienced death in families, and any child under 8."
257186,1,Medium lid doesn't fit,"I bought this set of three bowls. The medium lid did not fit on the medium bowl. I figured oh well.Then it got to bugging me, so I ordered another set. I figured I must have just got a bad set. But when the new set arrived it had the exact same problem. Once again the medium lid did not fit the medium bowl. The large lid fits the large bowl. The small lid fits the small bowl. But there is apparently a design flaw w/regards to the medium bowl and lid. I'd have to recommend against wasting any money on these."
257203,1,You Give Video Game adaptation a bad name!!,"Let me begin in saying that even if Amazon creates a minus stars, i wouldn't have givin it to this piece of crap. Hmm, where do i start: zero plot, zero action, zero dialog, zero acting and above all zero directing. I think the director is in a sacred quest to bury the videogames adaptation to movies once and for all. By not buying this DVD and filling the makers pockets, you're doing your self and the world a favor."
257269,1,Intuit stupidity and greed will cost them sales,"Once again a successful company has made a terrible error in the name of fraud reduction. Why would anyone purchase a tax program that will be unusable if a new computer is purchased during the 3 year tax return amending period? INTUIT, worry about the accuracy of your product and not so much about fraud!!! I have 5 1/4"" and 3 1/2"" Turbo Tax discs that go back to 1990 that I would still be able to use today. But I won't have TurboTax 2002. I will have TaxCut 2002 instead. Hopefully Block Financial won't be as stupid as Intuit."
257283,1,Activation and State Download Problematic,"This will be my last year in TurboTax. Along with the [C-dilla] and activiation issues (covered in other reviews), the download and purchase process for the state return was difficult because of the way the software connected and the information given by the TT servers. Instead of just saying ""the servers are busy"" the program locked up my computer and froze my connection to the internet each time it failed.I am done with intuit.ants to steal software, who cares about the protection scheme? Use it for a few days to do your taxes and delete it when you're done."
257302,1,Don't try this at home...,"While the overall quality of Keebler's line of regular cookies tends to be quite good, their version of 100-calorie shortbread cookies is a true miss.Pros: You get a large quantity of mini cookies per pouch (in comparison to Pepperidge Farm 100 calorie varieties.)Cons: Any essence of a ""shortbread"" flavor was completely lost to these crisps' just-sweet flavor.I won't be purchasing these in that future. For those seeking a very decent portion-controlled shortbread-type crisp, I highly recommend either Nabisco's Lorna Doone (sweeter), or Pepperidge Farm Chessmen (very buttery) both in 100 Calorie Pouches."
257364,1,It's a dirty job...,"The cover shot of the band is about all you need to know about the music contained within: disinterested and dated. But it's not as horrible as most have said; I can safely say 'Dirty Work' is miles better than the disastrous 'Undercover'. The first and last tunes on 'Dirty Work' are its best, 'One Hit to the Body' and 'Sleep Tonight'. The middle is where it goes head-shakingly off track. 'Too Rude' sounds like a UB40 remake, with an annoying drum reverb effect, and 'Winning Ugly' will have you racing for the 'next' key on your player. The rest of the songs range from obnoxious to simply forgettable. The sound quality is your typical early CD from the 80's, but as you might have figured out, this album deserves to be forgotten rather than remastered."
257494,1,Not for the uninitiated,"As a Kabbalist Jew of Spanish descent, I'm not really certain what the author of this book seeks to achieve for the uninitiated. If any wonder why the mystics such as Luria died at an early age, including the Ari Kaplan of blessed memory, it may very well be because they violated the Oral Law prohibiting the dissimination of this mystical knowledge outside the realm of the faithful. For many, including pop stars of today, not understanding what is to be taken literally vs. figuratively has led people astray from the simple truths of the written [revealed] Torah/Pentatuch which form the very foundation of Kabbalah through the Hebraic science of Gematria."
257503,1,What a disappointment,"I purchased this DVD based on the reviews for it here on Amazon - and must admit to being perplexed as to how this movie could possibly have gotten the kind of reviews it did...for either version! It moves at a glacial pace, plot line is poor, and many of the scenes are so dark and poorly lit, that much is lost. If you haven't seen this movie, think twice before purchasing it unseen."
257533,1,Esther & King/David & Goliath,Two movies on this DVD - very poor picture and sound for both of them. I am glad I didn't spend that much money. I actually give NO rating on this double-feature DVD. Save your money!!
257538,1,worst vacuum ever,"I own the fantom falcon for 6 months and the belt has gone bad on the power head. I placed an order for another belt and the fantom company told me it was on back order and it would take 6 to 8 weeks to get a new one sent to me. ""WOW"" no vacuum for that long, I have wall to wall carpet with a persain cat. I also don't like the way the hepa filter is on the basket it sits right in the middle of where you collect the dirt and that collects most of the cat hair and dirt> I always had to use a air compressor to blow out the dirt every time I used It. Please anyone looking to buy this vacuum that doesn't have a air compressor and has wall to wall carpet better think again."
257539,1,"Great Concept, but never works properly!!!","I am on my 2nd leappad and the newest one has the microphone and writing pen. I really like the books and all, but the book always seem to break down!! My son (4 yrs) is gentle, but from the get go the book ATE BATTERIES and volume doesn't work well, on and off constantly, etc. He has lost interest because he cannot get it to work consistently. At this point, we have invested over $100 (books, pad, batteries) and have nothing to show for it.My friend forewarned me about this product as she finally just threw hers away due to the same problems and it was causing alot of frustration for her daughter. I should have listened!!I think the fisher price books might be a better buy!"
257544,1,Slow Going,"I think this movie has potential to the right person. For me, the entire movie was slow. I just could not get into it."
257548,1,not the best pom poms,"not the best pom poms that i have seen but then again, they aren't made like they used to be, probably made in china, lol,not too many options for new retro items, would buy from another source"
257640,1,Cheap! Cheap! Cheap! But otherwise I love it!,"I bought this at Sears and loved it. I have a one-year-old who is pretty messy and I no longer worry about the messes...it is so easy to clean up with this sweeper.However, after owning it for one month, it stopped working and the handle snapped off. Since I did like the product, I took it back to Sears and traded it in for another one. I have had the second one for a month and it has also stopped working and the top of the handle never stayed on properly.As much as I like the convenience of this product, this time I am going to get my money back and by something else."
257642,1,Product Malfunction,"At first, the product was amazingly efficient and worked perfectly. But, after a short period of time, the sweeper is not so mechanically successful in picking up dirt and debris. Makes noises as if the belt has come loose and at times, the belt does come loose and you cannot repair or get it back together. Thus, you wind up buying another Shark Sweeper and then that one eventually breaks down. What is the warranty on this product and can anything be done to replace/repair this sweeper?"
257671,1,"Hauls a big load, but poorly constructed.","When I need to haul most of my stands on location, I load them all up, with other grip gear, into this large wheeled case. It isn't as stable as I would like, thin molded plastic tends to twist when the case, so the clasps sometimes take a bit of encouragement to close correctly.The first time I shipped this FedEx Ground, it totally fell apart. The handles cracked and fell off, the bumpers fell apart, and most important one of the wheels completely came off...I did send it back to SBK for warranty repair/replacement, and they are in the process of making good on it.It's probably great for storage and light transportation, but be careful if you pack it too much, won't do well with heavy loads."
257681,1,rusted in one year,"This lock lasted one year. It rusted out and the key would not turn, would not buy it again. I do recomend the Master Lock 911DPF Laminated Pin Tumbler Padlock, after 3 years still working like new."
257710,1,Worst Choice of Music from a Movie,"The Godfather III was a good movie, it had great music, especially one song Brucia La Terra, that Michael's son sang to him in the party before he made his appearance in the Opera, of course someone in their crazy choices left this most beautiful of songs of Sicily out of the CD....W H Y ?????"
257734,1,Ambivalent,"I echo Artic Fox's review. I'd just read ""The Mercy of Thin Air"" - also narrated by a dead person - and truly a haunting, moving book. It was clear from the beginning that ""Death of An Ordinary Man"" had a different agenda.It was good enough for me to keep reading it, but only a chapter at a time. The narrative style - while certainly introspective and thought provoking (assuming you are terrifically moved by the book) - was rambling, and I skimmed places. Then I'd have to go back and read it because suddenly I'd be like, ""Whaaaaa?""It didn't really move me, but it was well written for that style. If you really dig the first few chapters, you'll love the book. If you find yourself iffy on it, or bored - you might as well put it down because I doubt it will grab you when you get further in."
257745,1,Beware of Cosmetic Solutions,They charge you 36 but equivalently ship you the Revlon Ionic Hairsetter 261. After wrangling with customer service they finally agreed to refund me but it was still a very harrowing process. The shipping was also delayed. Delayed shipping plus an incorrect product? I will not be buying from them again any time soon.
257773,1,"good idea, bad execution","As other reviewers have mentioned, the photos are grainy. very grainy. However, left unmentioned was something even more troubling - many of the photos have been digitally cropped in photoshop or some such program. this was done presumably to save ink by not printing backgrounds. The cropping was done extremely poorly and amateurishly - there are toes that come to points, feet that look like blocks, all sorts of bizarre and unnatural concavities. a real hatchet job. the end result looks like someone took a pair of scissors and crudely snipped photos from a magazine. this sort of problem is particularly distressing in a book intended for artists as the accurate depiction of the outer contour of a form is vital for drawing.On another note, the models are not actually that thin. more average. This would have been a useful book, if not for the botched photos. An older edition would likely be satisfactory."
257780,1,Lock it up and throw away the key,"I can't recommend this lock. As mentioned in other reviews, it is too small to go around anything of size. I bought it to go around a double zipper gun bag. The problem was the lock part was too big to go throw the hole. So I am not for sure what this can be used for. Its hole is to small to go around anthing big but the hook part is too big to go through anything small.Plus the build quailty is questionable and feels pretty cheap. I didnt try but I bet it could be broken easly. I would reccomend this lockMaster Lock 4688D TSA Accepted Cable Luggage Lock in Assorted Colors, 1-Packas a abetter alternative."
257812,1,NO EAR PHONE IN THIS RADIO!!!!,BEWARE!!!!! THERE IS NO EAR PHONE JACK IN THIS RADIO... YOU CANNOT LISTEN TO CD'S AT NITE IN YOUR COMFY BED!!!!! NICE RADIO BUT I HAD TO RETURN IT!!!!TRY TO GET THE OLD SONY ICF CD 855V. IT IS NOT MADE ANY MORE BUT I FOUND ONE AND IT IS GREAT! CAN'T IMAGINE WHY 'SONY' WOULD FORGET THE PHONE JACK!!!!
257913,1,Bad investment,"When I received this microwave (after a considerable amount of online searching) I thought I was going to be very well satisfied, This lasted 7 whole days, WRONG!!!, After that it takes two hands to get the door opened, one to push the button and the other to pry the door open. So, you walk to the microwave, open the door and then go back to get whatever it is you are going to put into it. Of course you must repeat this process when it's finished or leave the door standing open. After going to the Panasonic Web Site, I found out that I could (POSSIBLY) get it repaired by taking it to a service center 75 miles away, Then I thought if I need to go back to pick it up that is a total of 300 miles and at .40 cents a mile, that is almost as much as I paid for it in the first place, think I'll just aggravate my wife with it for a while and then buy something other than Panasonic!!!!!!!!"
257943,1,For Use by Fluent Greek speaker to teach Greek ONLY,"We live in Greece and my dh is a homeschooled freshman. She did not want to take any other foreign language for HS credit, but we could not justify the many available tourist books, for high school credit.I was looking for a text and workbook that would be challenging enough for a high school curriculum. This book said directions were in English so I thought I had found what I needed. Only SOME of the directions are in English and only SOME of the words are translated. Much of the book is assumed to be read out loud by a Greek speaking Teacher to a class. Since I can't understand what I am reading to her we are like the blind leading the blind. We are struggling through but I definitely wouldn't recommend the book for home use.ALSO, we take the workbook to our neighbors to grade and our natural born Greek neighbor says there are MANY errors in the book."

258110,1,Do Not Buy Paper Mate Grip Retractable,"I purchase a LOT of things online and have done so for years. This is the worst purchase I ever made. I ended up keeping only ONE of the entire box of pens. The others were dried out. I don't think the type of pen is bad, but this supplier is obviously shipping very old merchandise. I will never buy another pen online after this fiasco. Shame on the supplier."

258149,1,Can't Recommend,"Purchased ""Original Mint"". It may pass through airline inspection, but the taste is awful--bitter and unpleasant."
258156,1,Just plain awful,"I bought this book based on the synopsis, and that it was written in the style of Jane Austen, which I now regret. As a big Austen fan I am deeply offended that this book would even be held in the same category with Pride & Prejudice. The back of the book leads the reader to believe that it will be a witty, funny, & intelligent read, but I'm here to tell you it's not!After reading this book all I felt was cheated! I wasted my precious time reading this awful book when I could've been reading the back of a cereal box instead."
258188,1,Excitement to Disappointment,"While the silver casings were very nice, I was extremely disappointed with the quality of the scarabs in these earrings. The scarabs were poor quality, and one scarab was smaller than the other. More glue than scarab showed in the setting. Silver Speck refunded my money with no problem, however, retaining my future business."
258215,1,Very Disappointing CD,Buyers of this CD should be aware the recordings were made in 1950 or earlier and that the sound quality is far inferior to anything considered acceptable by modern recording standards. I would suggest this CD only to persons interested in this particular conductor or orchestra; not recommended to someone who wants to enjoy the music of this very interesting symphony.

258436,1,Doesnt really have the quality that they promise you,Bought this for my parents who liked to connect their ipods and music players to this so they could do their morning prayers.Sound quality is very poor. I would not recommend this product unless it is on sale and you want something right next to your ear while travelling.
258499,1,"Seems to work, but the seals fell off","The filter seems the same as every other filter for this device, but the strips along the edges that prevent air from going around the filter rather than through it got knocked off by taking it out of the package. I'm not sure how important they are, I doubt it's worth trying to return it, but I'll be looking for better next time."
258528,1,Waste of Money,Too many mistakes. As for the Cram Sheet not even worth looking at. Total waste of time & money. DO NOT USE FOR EXAM.
258646,1,Do not even bother with it !,"This is a cheaply made ripoff of otherwise great toenail clipper. Pakistani made, advertised as 'surgical steel', has been filed by hand with visible defects on every surface. It is so dull, it does not cut toenails at all, but only tears them, presuming that one has enough strength in the hand to do it. Even though return postage most likely equals the value of the apparatus, I return it promptly as a matter of principle. Folks, do not be fooled. This tool is a ripoff. I wish there would be a minus 3 (-3) star rating."
258665,1,"Big on marketing, short on details","I have over 30 year of woodworking experience building tables, chests etc. I bought this book as it sounded like everything I ever needed to know about box making. The book was a big disappointment. It has lots of colorful pictures on nice glossy thick paper, but lacks the detailed instructions of how to build a box. Normally the Taunton Press (Fine WoodWorking Magazine) has excellent articles, but this book falls short of giving you the 'know how' to build a box."
258699,1,Not Impressed,"I am usually pleased with Everlast quality, but it was not the case with these. The stitching between the shin pad and instep pad started coming loose fairly quickly. They still have not separated, but they are well on their way. The band on the bottom of the instep guard is almost completely off on one side. They get a solid amount of use, but they had disappointed on the amount of wear. The amount of padding is good and pads themselves work well, but they are falling apart at the connections. Put your money into something else."
258797,1,Nearly unlistenable,"I truly believe there are two types of film scores; those that can be listened by themselves, and those that need to accompany a film to be listened to. 'Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within' definately needs to be lumped into the latter category. Being a big fan of the music composed for the FF games, I was really anticipating this CD. Being familiar with only Goldenthal's work with the last Batman films, I was prepared to give the guy an open ear. I wish now I had closed it. This score is noisy and brash, with absolutely no melody whatsoever. There are lots of loud instruments blurting away, clanging cymbals and hollering wind instruments all alike. There is no one leading theme or melody to latch onto to set this score apart from the others. I believe the soundtrack to a film should be a part of that film's character, but this one is a faceless mess. The only thing to even closely redeem it was the second last vocal track. FF fans, don't be duped into buying this."

258873,1,"Parev Marta, yes ayl Haye em!","I only read the first chapter of this book, and it was pretty boring. I got the cliffs notes, and it went by A LOT faster. Still got an A in the class too. Ew, but the book had such a nasty ending! ugh.....[yero says as he smiles mysteriously]..."
258952,1,"Guilty, Guilty, Guilty","Lori Barenson was the kind of college kid who would have had a ""Che Guevara"" poster on her wall to prove she was part of ""the Cause"". Then, a naive and misguided youth, she went down to Peru and lived with terrorists with lots of guns. When she got caught, she pleaded ignorance. Now she's in jail, where she should stay for a very long time. There are lots of way to help folks in places like Peru, but aiding and abetting terrorists just ain't very smart or, in the end, a very effective way to do it. Now her mother cries foul. Ugh. It makes you sick."
258977,1,Not happy,"The item didnt work, it had old batteries in it, acid was all over it corroded. I threw it out. Dissappointed I wasted the money."
259016,1,Focuses on the arrival of Europeans and after,"The jacket copy on this book claims that it covers events ""spanning two thousand years... beginning with the rise of... Oc Eo, to the glory of the Cambodian Empire in the first millennium..."" This is true to the extent that all years up to 1511 are covered in the first 30 pages, and the next twenty pages take us up to 1860. For coverage of early Southeast Asian history, I recommend the Lonely Planet guides as much more detailed, and more useful once you're there. (On the causes of the fall of the empire at Angkor, Osborne says ""No single, overriding cause for this event can be identified, nor would it be sensible to try and find one."" My Lonely Planet guide discussed the patterns of overbuilding, mentioned the deliterious effect of the corveé, and talked about issues with water supply, at least.) If your interest is in Southeast Asia since the French came, then this is a fairly absorbing and well-written book."
259079,1,"In the words of Clinton....i mean, come on!","uhhh... Only directors cuts? You've got to be kidding Paramount.. I agree with the other reviewers.. Paramount needs to do justice to these classic Trek movies and release the Theatrical & special editions, and clean up the picture & sound. Just like MGM did with the bond series using the lowry system. ( i think thats how its spelled) But alas they just want to milk this like it was on DVD. I've only owned the Vhs of the first 6 because by the time the standard(special edition) dvd's came out there was a lot of talk of HD. Now theyre giving us this crap? No thanks... i've seen the DVD special editions and those looked pretty bad, so theres no way im spending my dough on the $20 +(for each) paramount double dip scheme...."
259098,1,Reviews were great but mine came defective,"I purchased this because the price was right and the ratings were high. The item arrived appearing fine but after I put it on my Nikon D5100, I quickly realized something was wrong. When I tried to focus, the lens movements were very loud, and certainly did not sound right. There was no way of focusing on the lens.... it had blurry spots on the sides. I tried playing with it and adjusting it to no avail. I ended up packing it up and sending it back. It's a shame since I was looking forward to a nice lens like everyone said it was."

259179,1,This cd is an insult to my taste in good music,"Are you all tone deaf? It appears so, because in my opinion Steve can not carry a tune. I'm not trying to be ugly, but facts are facts. This man, in my opinion, doesn't have a place in this particular music. If you insist that he is T-H-A-T great singer, then maybe we can work a deal for you to buy my bridge. I have a bridge that I will sell cheap. Would you like to buy my bridge?I think Steve would fit in better under the country music umbrella. His is the right voice for country.As far as repertoire goes, this cd has a great selection.Here again the band failed, just like in the first cd. The band didn't hold up it's part of the bargain by playing romantic chords.This cd is a diaster!"
259253,1,BEGINNER NOT PRO,"THIS BOOK IS STRICTLY FOR THE BEGINNER I WOULD SAY, AND HAS LITTLE TO NO HANDICAPPING INFORMATION"
259255,1,WTF,I went on their website and the the 25 count co2 12g cartridges are $16.99 and why are these are $19.60 what is wrong with you CROSMAN WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO RIP ALL OF US OFF CHANGE THE GODDAMN PRICE BACK TO WHAT IT WAS BEFORE!!!!!!
259257,1,Useless,"I can find more detailed info online, it is not book's author fault, it is what we live with Internet age, book written good, but I had questions, and I had answered by google right away, and more. Books like that should have websites with FAQ."
259289,1,Computer Engineering Degree required!,"A musician is supposed to use this stuff? Yeah, right. How about someone who has been working with computers for the past 18 years and knows their way around Windows very well. Again, forget it! Windows 7 support...NOT EVEN! Web support that makes sense?? HAH! What a bunch of clowns. This stuff should be completely plug and play by now, but they are holding on so tight to their proprietary technologies that Digidesign just can't let go and allow the end user to have a fun musical experience. Instead, we're spending hours and days trying to get this POS up and running. Please wake me when this company arrives in this millennium. Thanks."
259316,1,This Toshiba SD-2800 DVD Player [stinks],"This Toshiba SD-2800 DVD Player [stinks]. It quit working within one year of use. My old, 1st generation, 1997 Toshiba SD-3006 DVD Player works way better than this and is still working perfectly after six years. I think my SD-3006 is ready to outlast every new DVD players in the market. So no more new DVD players for me because the size is too small and too fragile to keep."
259408,1,Boring,"It seemed that this movie was made to answer a lingering question from a previous movie but, it did not answer the question. I will avoid this director in the future, he has stung me once. However, if you are learning French it is not too difficult to understand. The characters speak clearly and they do not use a lot of much slang so it is good for practicing your French."
259413,1,Working Titles for a Horrible Book,"Perhaps a better title for this book would be ""An Idiot's Guide to Child Abuse"" or ""How to be Charged with Child Abuse"" or ""Take the Easy Route- Beat Your Child into Submission to Avoid Time Consuming Scientifically Proven Parenting Methods"". Why is Lessin still being published?"
259437,1,oh dear,"this album is really not very good. it sounds something like a cross between morcheeba and massive attack, except in one important detail - talent. or lack thereof. particularly the female vocalist, whose voice is just plain dreary. i challenge you to listen to this whole cd before sticking it back in the case never to be played again."
259507,1,a huge disappointment,"My son picked this item out, apparently the description was very impressive! Because the product that arrived sure was not!!"
259540,1,Seiko Company Sucks,"This ""was"" a great purchase - I thought. But after less than a year, the watch band broke. This IS covered by the warranty, but the customer service person at Seiko was a nightmare. She said that the watch band was obviously twisted, and basically, called me a liar. Nice Seiko! Good way to treat your customers!!"
259552,1,Disappointingly condescending,"The previous two reviews really captured it. I was intrigued by the premise, but really disappointed by the execution. The narrator was an American, although the perspective she was narrating was that of a Frenchwoman. The narration was flat, condescending, and irritating. This is a movie about a group of fool-hearty European adventurers with seriously biased and condescending attitudes. So much potential and yet so disappointing compared to a subsequent work by Pavol Barabas--'Pururambo'--a wild journey through the jungles of Papua New Guinea, which is quite good."
259578,1,A CHRISTMAS gift for my daughters.,"I bought a pair of these phones for my 6 and 4 year old daughters because they love to play on the cheap phones that we were buying them from the Dollar Tree. When i first saw these and realized that they could call each other and take pictures I decided to give them a try. I have two complaints with this product. One, the battery life with constant use is like 1 hour and that was with the top of the line energizers and I could'nt get one of the phones to communicate. The pictures are a little grainy but what do you expect with a play phone."
259686,1,don't waste your money,the reception is NOT great. the ear piece is NOT comfortable. the dial is NOT sensitive. it's very cheap
259848,1,Messy blender,"I bought this blender because of the Krups name and the claim to crush ice and make frozen drinks. I liked the glass container also, but am very dissappointed in the fact that it leaks a lot and makes a big mess, spraying liquid out the back base. I tried changing the ring, using it wet, dry, but nothing helped. I wish I had read the reviews before I bought it."
259947,1,Thoroughly Disappointing,"The number of books out there dedicated to using Flash as an animation medium can be counted on one hand, and most of those aren't very good. Despite the title, this book doesn't really qualify as an animation book.Much of the book covers non-animation topics like typography and video while animation topics like anticipation get less page space than the history of True Type fonts or noting when Nintendo added the Power Pad to its NES bundle.Even the off-topic of creating Flash content for mobile phones, which seems to be author's area of expertise, doesn't get covered very well.There's also an abundance of typos, clunky wordings and out of date text apparently copied from previous versions.All in all, I'm very angry I spent $30 for such a poor book."
259949,1,Acceptable at best.,"If you're not picky about your images and just want a light-weight, stylish camera, the DSC-T100 is fine. I just upgraded to it from a DSC-W1, which I'd had for years. I was really happy with my old one and thought the update sounded wonderful, but I think my old camera took better shots. With the DSC-T100, I get a lot of noise in every picture, I get chromatic aberrations around even mild highlights and the pictures also have a lot of ""lens bend"" to them. In a word, my pictures look cheap. When I looked at people using the same camera on flickr, I saw a lot of the same issues in their shots. If everything I just wrote sounds like gibberish, you'll probably do fine with this camera, but I'm disappointed that Sony put out such a bad camera."
259968,1,The worst book I've ever read,"This book is poorly done and isn't worth the paper it's printed on. The number of grammatical errors and typos in the book is beyond belief. The book lacks any kind of structure and the author more or less rambles incoherently half of the time. The other half he is trying (unsuccessfully) to convince the reader that this isn't a get rich quick scheme. This book is as close as you can get to reading an infomercial. There is little in the way of useful information and all of that can be found for free on the internet (particularly on ebay). If you want a good book about selling online, get Stephen Windwalker's The Complete Guide to Bookselling At Amazon's Marketplace and Other Online Site. It deals with books, but the knowledge he relates is practical and could be applied to nearly anything besides books."
260032,1,Typical,"This is the standard medical community line on pain, which, sadly, only contributes to the growing problem of chronic pain. If you suffer from chronic pain, read The Mind Body Prescription by Dr. John Sarno for a better discussion of pain, and for a real solution."
260068,1,"Quality issues, price not reflective of quality","The quality of Sin in Linen products is in decline. They used to use great fabrics and have the latest styles. The workmanship was pretty perfect. The last few things I have bought have had problems with the hem being sewn correctly (straight on a straigh edge), coming loose (had to fix it myself) and the fabric is not the thick, dense quality it used to be. This is my third (and last) disappointing purchase from SIL. Not to mention that they used to have unique images/ideas and now they have pretty much been run into the ground (same pin up girl design, skulls on every-freakin'-thing). No imagination anymore."
260086,1,"Heavy Duty - work okay, BUT ....","They are heavy duty and will support what it says it will. However, one of mine had the center post welded on upside down. I didn't really notice it until after 30 days had passed, so was stuck with them. It was awkward using them and in most cases I was able to make do. But I ended up giving them away."
260162,1,Tommy Lee Jones is a great actor but the movie lacks,"This movie was probably made because the US border patrol was a popular subject at the time of making this movie. However it is too esoteric to make any point. Too morose to make any connection with the audience. Too disjointed of have any continuity of thought. The cinematography may work if one was blood thirsty.If you want to see Tommy Lee Jones in a good movie try ""The Fugitive"" (1993). Or if you really like campy then try ""Volcano"" (1997).The FugitiveVolcano"
260171,1,Buy another Recess movie,Although we normally love the characters and stories this is an awful movie. The number one thing all parents need to know is mentioned in the official review above. There is a very STRONG message that there is no Santa. If your child believes in Santa do not watch this movie. There is a very subtle suggestion that Santa is real at the very very end. The actual majority of the movie is on non-Christmas short episodes tied together loosely by having the teachers and principle remember things about the kids while stranded in a car stuck in a snow drift. Overall poor quality movie and I am not sure who the target audience would be. Those who believe in Santa will be mortified and those who don't will be bored.
260212,1,JB's Arrival- Animated Disappointment,When I placed my order it was disclosed that the cover to the battery compartment was missing. That was an acceptable default that could be replaced. however after inserting new batteries and pressing the activation button I realized that although the doll would sing and move its hips...the arms were broken and just lifelessly hanging to the side. Further examination revealed that a nail had been placed under each shoulder of the doll to merely hold the arms in the socket. I thought I was purchasing this item and getting a real deal. Unfortunately it turned out to be a STEAL.
260228,1,Waste of my money...unhelpful book,"This book is not great. There is a lot of useless fluff at the beginning of each chapter, when the author tells a long, very boring story (ie: an October day on a train) that is not conducive to building core strength. The pictures are in black & white, and there are not as many great exercises compared to other books. With this book, you'll probably spend all your time reading rather than doing exercises. This book is not direct or to the point, resulting in many pages that again, you'll have to read to find maybe one key point."
260230,1,not the same thing,What I recieved is not what the picture shows! Could not pick what month I needed. It did not come close to what i was looking for.
260244,1,stinky!!!!,"size and color were exactly as expected. The smell, however, is nasty! I returned them after trying to let them air out for 1 week, but the smell was so strong and nasty, everybody could still smell them. If you enjoy the smell of cat crap, these are the boots for you."
260253,1,"Love the movie, but hated the DVD","I bought this DVD solely for HONDO AND THE APACHES. I was a fan of the series around 1994 when TNT was airing it regularly. When they pulled it I missed it until this DVD came out. Boy was I sorry I bought it.The DVD looks like it was mastered from an old film print, maybe even an old VHS tape due to some of the print damage that looks like video-tape ""snow"" rather than damage to an old film print. On top of that, it should be 85 minutes long, and is only a mere 72 minutes. The quality of the other film, THE MAN CALLED NOON, is no better. I'm used to cheap budget DVDs, but when parts of the movie are missing, I have to complain."
260293,1,2 stars in SEP's standard.........,firstly i have to say that this is my leats favourite book of SEP's book ive read so far...... this is not really much of her humopr in this one and its just so and tooo SEP...... it seems to talk more about his ex-wife than him.... their story are not really developed the story was just liek okay.. it doesnt really get me excited or waiting to see whats next...... i have to admit its rather a disappointment.......
260331,1,OK,Good for very small jobs but doesn't have the power to cut through anything big. My auto-feed also stopped working after about a year and I finally ended up burning out the motor. If you do more than minor trimming you may end up having to buy a new one in a couple of years.
260348,1,over rated guide,"This guide is more of the same. Basically tells you about the colleges you already know have good reputations-- ivys, and the ones just below them. Not helpful for kids who want to follow a non-liberal arts path. Not an in depth book, more just a glossary of colleges and universities. Big disappointment"
260369,1,THE CORD IS SUPPOSED TO BE SHORT!,"We have the old version of this phone. Im not sure if this one has a cord that is on the front of it but ours did. Im writing this to warn everyone who is upset that the cord on this toy is too short. Ours had a cord for the phone and a cord to pull the toy with. I was in making dinner one day and i heard some crying and i walked in to find both of the two cords got tangled some how around one of my little boys neck! when i got it off there was a deep purple indent on his poor neck. Now i know some people might be saying i need to watch my babies more but only a mother of twins would understand how hard it is. Now the cord to pull the toy has been cut off, they still like the toy however. Im just glad i got to him in time."
260401,1,In my opinion this appears to be very amateur attempt to make money off the Kings name!,"My grandmother received this DVD as a gift from a cheap relative, and unfortunately I had to watch it when I went to visit her on Christmas day. I am also an Elvis fan and I enjoyed watching his performances in the past. In my opinion this appears to be very amateur attempt to make money off the Kings name! I wish I had that hour of my life back and could have spent it just visiting with my grandmother."
260439,1,Sadly Bad,"I have tried and tried to like this album--but truth is, that this is one bad album. Why sadly? Because Ms. Willaims is one of the truly great songwriters and singers performing today. In her previous works her songs are brilliantly raw and her voice rips you apart. On Essence the songs are boring and her voice reflects that boredom."
260441,1,This is SUCH a Disappointment!,"I don't know what she's thinking of. Every cut is just flat boring, the title song being the most reptitive -- monotonous -- meaningless--offensively boring of all! This collection has nothing to do with the lyricist who provided ""Cresent City"", or ""Passionate Kisses"", or any of the blues covers of earlier CD's. Big ""DUH"" and thumbs down on Essence. Save your dough for when she bothers to sing, or better yet, for when she starts writing again.--Elayne"
260458,1,this mat smells super strong of chemicals and slides,"when i opened the mat i figured the smell would wear off in just a couple of minutes. boy was i wrong. Three weeks later, smell is still so strong that I will probably have to buy a new mat. Also it slides . really bad."
260494,1,"Great teaching aid, but not in the way Ben Stein intended...","I teach a class that includes logic and logical fallacies. This film is a wonderful teaching tool for me. From start to finish, it is a buffet of logical fallacies. My students are justifiably appalled at the film's obvious weaknesses, such as the film maker's failure to ever provide a single piece of evidence to support the case of intelligent design. The ad hominem association of evolution with the Nazi genocide is so over-the-top that it actually made my students, religious kids included, angry. Thank you, Ben Stein, for making a film so riddled with ignorance of science and fallacious claims -- you have unwittingly helped today's young people to be more vigilant in their examination of claims such as yours!On a personal note, I regret that I had to actually buy this film to use it as a teaching tool. Spending my own money on such laughable propaganda was painful, even when it serves my students well as a negative example!"
260512,1,WEAK,"I never saw Gordon's War when it came out, but remember the trailers in the movie theatres. Somehow I thought this would be a good movie to buy, and except for watching a young Paul Winfield and probably the first exposure of Grace Jones...THIS MOVIE SUCKS! It is obviously an money making effort by those who made countless other BLAXPLOITATION movies"
260541,1,Not a Reliable Product,"My son bought the Audiovox DVD1500 portable DVD player in early November 2001. He doesn't use it very much and takes good care of it. He even has a padded bag where he stores it when not in use. We have had to send this product back to Audiovox in New York twice; Nov 26, 2001 and Mar 18, 2002 at our expense...The first time the DVD player would not play at all, which Audiovox was prompt ( approximately 3 weeks) in sending us a new DVD player, and the second time because the picture would not show up on the portable screen, although we could hear the sound. Audiovox promptly (within about 3 weeks) returned the DVD player to as with a note that they could not find anything wrong, but they cleaned it. It currently is working, but I would rather have received a refund the second time. Buyer beware."
260594,1,Journey To The Bottom Of The Cesspool...,"Yikes! This one stinketh! Imagine a horridly dull room full of hideously dull people doing horrendously dull things. Now, imagine that this orgy of boredom can actually transport us into the far-flung future! JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF TIME is quite the bitter pill to swallow. It drags on endlessly, going nowhere, until finally fizzling into oblivion! If giant lizards and Lyle Waggoner do it for you, this could be your dream-come-true! Otherwise, it's a doggy-do sandwich for sure! No redeeming qualities whatsoever! Avoid with extreme prejudice..."
260614,1,for my 300zx,fits perfect. The only thing I hate about it is the 4 little slot holes in the back. Was it really necessary? That drops it down by 3 stars.
260638,1,Yet another must read for the the right wing fringe,"If you liked the Turner Diaries and Hunter, check this one out. At least Cashill knows sentence structure if nothing else. Yet another in the redneck, racist, ""Oh my God, the liberals are ruining our nation"" genre. Simplistic, predictable and well worth skipping."
260662,1,Simply Crappy. A very poorly written book.,"I am an avid reader of all genre's including romance. This is by far the worst book I've read in a long time. The author tells, not shows, what is going on and has long bouts of meaningless and endlessly repeating thoughts between the dialog. A few times I had to go back a couple pages to remember what the previous character had said.The plot might be okay if it were executed well. It wasn't. There are a lot of fun easy reads out there. Books like this is what gets the Romance genre laughed at."
260669,1,P.U.,"Sure to go down in Oscar history as one of the worst films to win Best Picture, ""Crash"" is an artless, shallow attempt to illuminate one of the most important issues this country faces. I haven't been this insulted by a self-important life lesson since I accidently saw part of an episode of ""Walker - Texas Ranger"" (another Paul Haggis creation)."
260726,1,"Look's Good, Starts off good,","I was impressed at the looks, I was impressed with ecerything except the quality after using a oral hygene waterpik for several years, I had a 2nd one in less than 1 year and it has quit working, too much money and inconvenience for the price,"
260746,1,bluestar,Well I read the reviews and bought one of these. I had high hopes. Mostly what I bought it for was to add my favorute streaming internet radio stations and listen thru my stereo. I was very disappointed that the only ones I could get to work were thru I tunes. I called customer service and at first they were eager to help me. They were supposed to call me back but never did. So I phoned them. They could not figure out a way to help put in my preset radio stations. The last conversation I had with a so-called tech is that I get back with you shortly. I had a feeling deep down it was the last time I would hear from them. I was right. I was honestly not a pain either. As for as I am concerned I will never buy another item from this company because of their poor customer service. Save your hard earned money.
260779,1,Booger sure can pick em',"Its not surprising that a movie that is filled with fart jokes and booger talk would appeal to a guy named Booger. This movie will be highly enjoyed by anyone with an IQ that equates to the number of states that seceded from the Union. I can just see Booger now, watching this on his out of date VCR in his mommy's basement, Confederate flag on the wall, stacks of Swank and Hustler littering the floor..."
260797,1,sands of time,Just not my cup of tea. I prefer the old standards. Thank you for following up with me and bringing it to my attention.
260818,1,Boots,"This boots arrived quickly but, unfortunately, I returned them. I was so excited to finally own a pair of Frye boots but was disappointed with the quality of them. I purchased the boots in the ""saddle"" color and the stain was uneven causing the different pieces of leather to look patchy. The front piece of one of my boots looked like it came from a completely different color of leather. I also wasn't impressed with the stitching and ultimately decided that alas, the price was just too high for the poor quality. I did some research at it looks like many consumers are finding that the quality of Frye boots has plummeted since the fairly recent sale of the company. I envy the lucky people who were alive in the 60s/70s and were/are able to enjoy REAL, quality, Frye boots."
260862,1,Why does this company sell junk?,It has been so frustrating to have containers like this that crack along the bottom and loose integrity after only a few uses. Which is better than the company that sells products like these: it doesn't have integrity to begin with.
260878,1,the worst this genre offers,"I dont know if it was the album cover or the album title or both that made me check this cd out. Now, in my mind, this is possibly the worst disc I have heard all year. I wouldn't call it music, not yet. I mean I would be surprised if people are actually listening to Pink. The music lacks substance, a logical conclusion of a rhythm, it sounds quite forgetful and nausea inducing. I don't think Pink should make anymore discs. Complete waste of my time.

260899,1,small display,"pros:- good radio reception- better sound quality than most clock radios at same pricecons:- clock display is too small, hard to read in either of the clock's postions, laying down or standing up.- natual sounds really do sound like static."
260999,1,A Nightmare on Transfer Street,"I just bought this in June of 2007. Downloaded great but could not get the 'preview' to work. Technical support had me to download an 'upgrade' to it 2 days after I bought it. So it was already out of date when I got it. Now the USB does not connect to the program. I have been trying to get technical support to straighten this out for me since I bought it 2 weeks ago and still cannot get it to work. Unless you are a computer genious and know how to out smart this thing , please be careful in buying this. I have yet to be able to use it."
261027,1,What a waste!,I bought this little vac since I didn't have the attachments for my regular vac. The filter clogs after the second sweep. My broom and dustpan worked faster and easier.
261030,1,"The ""Secret"" is how this author is successful","puh-leese!!! this book is only provocative for those easily provoked. McClaren introduces nothing new to those who are more informed than those who would find this book innovative. McClaren, obviously, was the goofy intellectual wannabee in college who sat around and took notes on what the intellectuals were saying, rewrote their stuff so that it made no coherent sense, and then presented it to a publisher who is all goo-goo over Davinci Code stuff. The only secret, here, is the punchline. The obvious joke is, of course, this book!"
261046,1,Investigation?,"I picked up this book thinking that I would be reading about recent sightings of UFOs and the ongoing investigations. Unfortunately, that is most certainly not the case. The only recent events talked about are the movie Independence Day and the joint promotion they did with Nevada.Susan Wright has merely collected many well-known people, investigations, theories, and events from the past and mentioned them all here. There are many other books that give this to you, so this one does not help. Also, the narrative seems to skip from point to point without a logical order.If you know absolutely nothing about UFOs, their investigations, and conspiracy theories to cover them up, then you might read this to become familiar with the people and places. Otherwise, I would recommend investing your time elsewhere."
261075,1,Creamy....but unimpressive.,"I was looking forward to a hearty, rich soup, and instead got this Corn Chowder- the corn was soggy and not crisp, the soup was almost 'curdled' even though it was defintely within the shelf life of the product, and the smell...well, my husband actually asked if I'd opened up a can of dog food in the house. The flavor was bland and slightly salty. I took a few bites and threw it out- however, I am a picky eater, and some people might enjoy this, if they like thick, greasy food."
261082,1,Not for those with short attention spans,"For those of us with ADHD, this book is easy to set down and just stare at a wall for an hour. This is not by any means a truly enticing book. However if you have alot of time and can trick yourself into thinking a really slow book is ""fascinating"" then go right ahead and read it."
261092,1,BUYER BEWARE,"If you plan to use this car seat for less than one year, then keep it; otherwise you only have a 90 day Evenflo warranty. I purchased this car seat (...) and it didn't last as long as the other seat I used for both of my daughters. When I called the company shortly after purchasing it to find out how to wash it, they told me I couln't. When I called to complain about the seat (...), it could miraculously be washed -- after 2 disgusting years -- by removing the back plate with a screwdriver. The problem now is that the velcro and backing has totally ripped apart, and when I went to remove one of the clips from the seat, it tore a hole in the fabric. If I place it in the washer, I'm sure it will fall apart. Evenflo will NOT replace the cover, but is willing to waive the shipping and handling fee if I purchase a new one. There is no recall on my model, and the customer service was shoddy.Oh yea, and my 2 year old can get out of this one too! I should've bought the Britax."
261177,1,Waste of money,"This unit is a joke.They explain it may take up to 10 minutes to get going, which is completely understandable, however the mist this unit puts out is minimal. One reviewer compares it to the mist of a cup of coffee. I am not even sure its that much. Perhaps a small cup of coffee.If you are in a very very small room, I can see it may be a workable low cost solution, however this is certainly not a useful device for anyone with sinus, reflux or respiratory problems (I have all three) in a medium to larger size bedroom that needs help to sleep and rest.My wife purchased this, and doesn't know much about air quality, so I can't fault her for not knowing. This is going back to Target and I'm going to order something better from Amazon."
261209,1,Tons of Errors!,"While this book is written in a very ""user-friendly"" style, the amount of typographical, stylistic, and grammatical errors is incredibly distracting! For a book that's supposed to discuss the precision of research methodology, it certainly has a long way to go in being accurate. It seems that on almost every page there is a typographical or grammatical error, which is completely unacceptable in a professional resource (even if it is targeted towards ""beginners""). There are a couple of chapters in which entire sections seem been left out and others that are very sloppily edited.Surely the author could have forked over a couple hundred bucks to get a professional (or even a half-intelligent grad student!) to proofread it. It is in its seventh edition, after all.If copious amounts of unprofessional errors irritate you in a textbook, avoid this one."
261252,1,Same as other problems...,"I just recieved the printer from my boss at work, was sitting outside his office for about a month.... just today took it home and tried to fix it to no avail. It IS a piece of [...], the cartridge was stuck on the right, the back was broken off, and the lights are blinking nonstop.Went to the HP support website and followed their instructions to unjam it with a screwdriver but pulled off the flex cable (came out easy) on accident. (and cant get it back on)Save your money for another brand (and dont buy 30 dollar handmedowns)"
261376,1,A Disappointment,"I usually love Kathleen Woodiwiss' books and have been reading then for years but I was extremely disappointed in her lastest book. I found it very hard to get into reading this book. Usually I am swept away from the beginning of her books but this one was long, drawn out, and very hard to follow. It wasn't until about 250 pages in did the story finally get interesting but even then, it was lackluster. There were too many storylines and she took forever to explain such simple things! I felt like the first chapter when Adriana and Colton first met again lasted an entire year, not the 15 minutes is actually was! I truly hope that her next novel is comparable to her past books and not this one. It would be a shame to see such an excellent writer waste her talents on another disappointing book."
261430,1,NOT SHARP ENOUGH!!!,"I'm sad to say I didn't have a pleasant experience with these scissors on the first use, so I haven't used them since. They aren't sharp enough to prevent tugging on the hair, and sense my Pomeranian is very sensitive to such, I'm unable to utilize them :("
261462,1,Can not be relied upon for accurate BP readings,"I gave this product 1 star because it simply can not be relied upon. If you are watching your BP, you need to have an accurate reading. I have been using the Omron HEM-711 arm cuff for years, and verified its readings while in my Dr's office, and it is very accurate. I bought this wrist cuff because I thought it would be more portable, but was very disappointed in the accuracy.The SYS reading was a much as 15 to 20 points below, and the DIA was around 10 points below what the arm cuff was telling me. The pulse reading was right on. The wrist cuff will not inflate until it is in the correct position relative to your heart, so I know I was wearing it correctly and had it positioned correctly.This is completely unacceptable and downright dangerous if you're trying to keep a eye on your BP."
261497,1,good idea poorly executed,"As a cold wrap it just doesn't get cold enough and the tie is not secure enough, a velcro fasten would have been much better."
261526,1,Noisy radio,"I purchased this radio for vehicle to vehicle communication in a travel convoy. It appeared to work fine when i first turned it on. However, when plugged into the 12V power outlet in the vehicle, the electrical noise from the vehicle alternator overwhelmed it and all that could be heard was a loud buzz. Disconnecting the radio from the 12V outlet and running on batteries helped some, but there was still excessive electrical noise from the vehicle ignition system. Purchasing an extternal antenna might help eliminate the ignition noise, but there is still the issue of having to run on battery to avoid the alternator noise. Out of the box this radio does not appear to be suitable for use in a road vehicle."
261561,1,Not impressed,"I have had these for about six months, and they are falling apart. Where the arm cuff attaches the bolt holes have become so elongated they let the cuff flop around like a limp rag. The rubber tips wore out after only a few weeks, I replaced them with Tornado tips. The new tips are the only thing that is really good about my crutches. I don't walk a lot. I can only imagine what condition they would be in if I did walk a lot!"
261627,1,Disappointed and Derailed,"I have tried to install Loco-Mania only to find that the application is not unlocking using the provided product key. Although there is a download patch on the Loco-Mania WebSite for version 1.1, installing this did not resolve the issue.Looking at the forum section of the Loco-Mania web page, I find that others have had this problem with no resolution found. Although, it is understandable that software can have defects, I would expect at least an acknowledgement of the problem and that a fix exists or is on the way from the development company. To date I have seen neither.Serves me right for not reading the reviews before purchasing the product."
261681,1,Worst Stephen King in a long time,"This book is terrible. Oh, it holds your interest, and the topic is certainly on-spot and almost inevitable. But the style is dreadful. If I didn't think he'd stoop so low, I'd find it easy to believe that King contracted this book out for someone else to write, and just lent his name to it. The book reads as if it were written by Dean Koontz, not by Stephen King. The character development, the descriptive phrases, the diaglogue, are not what you'd expect from King. The characters are flat, as is the dialogue. I was extremely disappointed."
261690,1,CELL a stupid book,not only is it a stupid book...its a very stupid book and a waste of time to read.
261703,1,Perfect if you need coal for Christmas...,"This thing is terrible. At first I thought it was me, but after reading these reviews I feel so much better. The only thing it produces in charcoal. Sometime there is edible matter in the middle, sometimes it's pure charcoal. They should give me back the cost of the unit, PLUS the cost of all of the food I have wasted, PLUS the cost of the chinese food and pizza I have had to order as a quick replacement!!!"
261761,1,Not even Nicole Kidman could save it,"Oh so lame. The original K. Ross version was great, this one was pedantic and completely uninspired. A waste of Kidman's ability."
261800,1,Syntax & Semantic Reference Guide,"This book should be called the ""Syntax & Semantic Reference Guide for Common Lisp"". It is not a primer on Common Lisp; for the most part the author spews information about the specification (which he was part of forming). This might be the best reference book on Lisp ever written, but don't attempt to try and learn the Lisp language from this text."
261883,1,Whaler II,"I think the subject line says it all, but Amazon won't let me leave this part blank, so here goes... Wilderness is a sequel to Whaler. If you like the Whaler side of Sophie, then you'll really love this one; its a logical evolution of her pop & jazz elements. But if you're more of a Timbre/TAT fan, you might be disappointed, because this album doesn't showcase her dark, explosive passion, nor does it highlight her musical/rhythmic innovation. Vocals, however, are excellent as always."
261930,1,junk,"wow, these sound horrible. words cannot express my displeasure. i expected these would suck as they were cheap as hell but they really really suck. how could anyone post a good review?!?"
262001,1,No Buttons - Big Hassle,I can't believe Bose has replaced a very nice system with one that you must control with a tiny remote. I have both their older models and I can't stand this new design.
262019,1,Scott Bacula at his best,What can you say? I loved the series and I am so happy the DVD's are available. They are well put together and the second season is jammed packed with episodes.Dean Stockwell in his prime and Scott couldn't be any sexier or funnier if he tried to.Well worth the money and worth watching over and over again.
262033,1,Poorly done,"The Two other reviewers must have been stoned , this is a less then a B movie,I guess by renting this I helped out some college kids, if looking for a zombie movie look else where."
262103,1,This book is not worth the one star I am required to give it,"HORRIBLE! That about sums up this book. Inaccurate, badly researched, poorly written, etc etc.If your looking for some cheap comic relief then this is the book. Although I would get it from a library... it's not funny enough to warrent spending real money on ;)"
262104,1,Can someone tell me why this is funny?????,"This is the worst, most stupied thing I have ever seen on film. What is so funny about a group of grown men acting like idiots? I really feel sorry for these guys. What is wrong with them and what is wrong with people that actually think this is entertaining? Why is it entertainment to watch someone hurt themselves? This movie is about watching people vomit, hurt and degrade themselves. I didn't this was entertaining or funny or interesting and I worry about what kind of society we live in that anyone would pay money to watch something like this. I hate to even rate this with one star but I had no choice."
262113,1,Defective,"Like many other reviewers, the four that I bought are having intermittent spells of the dreaded ""three chirps"". Not sure what brings it on, but it seems to invariably happen in the middle of the night. Extremely annoying."
262124,1,WHO-SOUNDS,"The Who have some of the greatest songs but at the same time the worstsound recordings and mike and sound-mixing jobs of all the Rock-and-Roll bands on Records, especiallythe live concerts on DVD. It is a shame for paying so little attention."
262131,1,Love or Hate???,"Once I started watching this movie, I could not stop. Not due to the fact that it was great cinema, but rather because it was so terribly awful! Very campy and incredibly crude at times, this is a cult classic that I am glad to have in my collection. That being said, I think it will be a long time before I sit down to watch it again."
262225,1,Rubbish.,Defective - loose handset connector creates static. This is the second one I've purchased over the past few years and the problem is only getting worse.
262255,1,Not enough information,"I was very disappointed in this book. Not enough sourdough starters for the average cook. For instance, ""Peach Leaf Starter"", ""Hop Starter"", etc. The book was not worth the price. Unless you want unusual recipe's, don't get this book."
262395,1,Packaging Please,"Ordered 5 of these for Christmas gifts. All five arrived in little plastic baggies and no instructions. I would be embarrassed to give these as gifts, so I've just been giving them away to anyone that can use them. I ordered one earlier to check it out before buying multiples (from a different vendor), and that one came in full retail packaging. Product itself seems pretty good, though."
262409,1,Don't be fooled.,"Unfortunately, these knobs are such that they only work on certain stove knobs. If I put the knob thru the plastic, I cannot turn on the stove without taking the knob off, plastic cover off, and putting the stove knob back on. It's just as easy to take the knobs off completely and put them on when I need the stove. Waste of money."
262410,1,security methode,"security methode (H/W, s/w) which encription algorithm are used application flow chart of smart card development kit's today's issue of card industory"
262425,1,"A little too serious, if you ask me","When I got this book, I was expecting something a bit more funny. The premise is funny, a book on how to survive the coming zombie apocalypse, but the book seems a bit too serious.I did like the historical outbreaks section. Each one of those could have been made into a pretty creepy short story."
262454,1,OMG. WARNING WARNING. STAY AWAY. DO NOT BUY,"This is the worst skateboard or any other movie I have ever seen. The people giving this movie good reviews must be in it trying to sell DVDs. This should get a negative 100 stars. I WARN YOU, DO NOT BUY. EVERYTHING TOTALLY SUCKS ABOUT THIS DVD; THE TRICKS, CAMERA, MUSIC, PEOPLE and Ect."
262465,1,Dean Koontz Did Not Write This Stinker!,"After finally slogging through Last Day, I can't see any chance that Koontz wrote this miserable screed. This is clearly the work of a first-time hack trying desperately to sell books through controversy alone, not good story telling. Koontz writes with insight, intelligence, and style, elements this book seriously lacks. The dialogue and characters here are laughably overblown and dumb. The biggest reason Koontz could not have written this thing: he has talent and writes well. It would go against his nature to create a real load of junk like this."
262561,1,"Poor packaging, 3 of 4 pots damaged in shipping","What a disappointment!!! Due to poor packaging where the pots were rubbing against each other, 3 out out of four pans were scratched in transit. This was a birthday and anniversary gift for a special someone, and she was so disappointed she almost burst into tears. For expensive cookware to be so shoddily shipped is an outrage! Walmart would have done a better job of shipping. Amazon should talk with Berndes about their packaging. Would have ordered a replacement, but the packaging was so poor that it seemed unlikely that a new package would arrive in any better shape.Of course, other than schlepping the large package to the UPS store, the return was fairly painless, one of the great things about shopping at Amazon."
262563,1,A Great Imitation of Their Own Style,"Reading between the grooves, it sounds like there was a contractual obligation to produce a new album. Great playing. Innovative compositions. It's hard to pinpoint why these great musicians somehow just didn't manage to get this bird in the air. However, nothing about it really inspires, entertains or surprises."
262567,1,0 stars if possible,"This book is completely ludicrous. My husband purchased it from a co -worker thinking it was about the extinction of the dinosaurs and the scientific evidence for the extinction of dinosaurs. Instead it is a fundamental creationist view of what happened to dinosaurs based on biblical ""evidence"". It completely discounts carbon -14 dating and the fossil record based upon the strata of the Earths crust. The woman who sold this to us home schools her children and actually teaches this as fact. I am a Christian myself and have never had an issue with evolution as the means by which God could have created all life. The bible is a metaphor! These people are nuts.Jenny"
262596,1,Poor Description,"I would prefer to purchase this type of pad use rather than a silicone one, as the silicone causes perspiration and rashes; however, the description for this series of pads merely says ""small, medium or large"" without stating the actual dimensions. This is inadequate, particularly given the cost. Also, the photograph shows two completely different shapes without stating which one will be purchased. This too is unacceptable. Please correct these problems so I may become a happy customer and patronize your store :)Thank you."
262622,1,"yet again, a horrid book about Kissinger","For once I'd like to see a scholar write a book about this man that is based on some primary source scholarship. Books based on newspaper clippings and speculation make for trashy books, not works of true scholarship. Really, don't bother with this book."
262625,1,Should be recalled,"My 1-year-old received this toy as a Christmas present. It was opened and put together on a Saturday; by Tuesday she had taken the Peek-a-Boo Door off. A small (Cheerio size) plastic piece of the hinge came off with it. I found the piece before she was able to put it in her mouth, ear or nose. Clearly this could have been a choking hazard or some other hazard. I called Fisher Price and its going back to them."
262656,1,The end of the road for me...,"I used to be a big Priest fan in jr. high and high school (graduated '87), but this album didn't impress me at all. When ""Turbo"" came out, I was saddened, and this album, although harder, didn't help much and was the last 'Priest album I purchased.On the flip side, when I saw Judas Priest in concert in 1988 (just after this album came out),the songs they played from ""Ram"" sounded awesome! In my opinion, the band was just meant to be appreciated live."
262762,1,not so good,"This was horrible. It just, like another reviewer said, it just doesn't stand up to the test of time. You can definitely tell this is not modern day comics, when I feel they really reached their peak."
262788,1,Robert Goulet 16 Most Requested Songs,"This might be good if I could hear it, but at the volume setting for all the other CD's that are playing, this CD is nearly inaudible."
262794,1,"Ehhh, pretty unimaginative","I am a very good cook, but I have been stuck when trying to create tasty meals for my little monkey. I bought this book anticipating great ideas and tasty recipes. For one thing, the recipes are very boring and not hard to figure out for yourself, without a cookbook telling you; for instance fruit skewers, rolled up PBnJ.A couple of the recipes peaked my interest, the vegetable chips and veggie fritters...the recipes were horrible. They didn't come out the way the description explained they would. Everything I tried to make that was out of the ordinary turned out poorly. I assume these were not tested recipes."
262810,1,Terrible,"I had high hopes for this over and under the eye 2 in 1 cream/gel but shortly after application it aged my eyes by at least 10yrs. puffy, wrinkly and droopy. I had to thoroughly wash it off and thank goodness was able to reverse the unsightly affect of this avon eye lift.I dont recommend this one."
262901,1,Broke and haven't even used it.,"I opened the box to find out that the shovel won't even lock. It just flaps in the wind. Coleman is a great company, but why make an item that has let so many people down. It works great now that I have stick welded the shovel locked open. Coleman sure looses points for this item."
262926,1,DO NOT BUY THESE EARBUDS!,"After less than four months (VERY LIMITED USAGE) my Red Roxx Vibe earbuds are shot. I am experiencing intermittent volume loss, and one of the mesh guards inside the earbud has fallen out (thankfully not into my ear). I can understand defects in workmanship, but do not appreciate V-moda requiring me to pay the return shipping cost plus insurance on the package to receive a replacement. And, for a defective 3 1/2 month old product, I should not have to. The sound quality is good, but another problem I have is the earbuds do not fit securely in my ear and still fall out. This was a major selling point as I use them when working out and doing chores. This purchase has been a MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT, and not at all worth the higher price.***07/16/2007 I RECEIVED MY REPLACEMENT FROM V-MODA AND AFTER ABOUT ONE HOUR THEY AGAIN STOPPED PLAYING OUT OF THE LEFT EAR. THIS PRODUCT IS TOTAL GARBAGE! HEED MY WARNING, OR IN A FEW MONTHS IMAGINE ME TRYING TO TELL YOU I TOLD YOU SO!"
262975,1,Far from perfect,"The singing in this cd is far from perfect. In fact, there're long stretches which can fairly be described as ludicrous.The singing skills of Russell Watson is really rudimentary to the extreme. His narrow voice range and weak tone, which require copious help from the record producers, simply cannot manage the songs, be their classical or pop.Some people may think that this is singing for ""everyone"". I must disagree, for such a kind of crooning will probably only please those who treat the music in this cd as sort of ""background noise"". Those who really apply their ears and minds to the singing will be dissatisifed, and indeed horrified, by its many shortcomings.This is certainly one of the worst cds that I've heard in my 2000 plus collection of recordings. It really deserve just one star, or maybe even less."
263032,1,Very disapointing...,"Not well sealed for all weather purposes. Then I dropped on the front lawn and it broke. This product was a big disappointment. Good for a light to keep under the kitchen sink, that's about it. Next I will check before buying another Chinese flashlight."
263157,1,Spring has no tension.,"The spring within the sensor has absolutely no tension. I just opened the box the day before yesterday after having the item sit on my shelf for around a year. I inspected it before installation and I decided that I would rather risk a old Denso sensor from the junkyard than this brand new after market one. Total waste of money, order a different brand or get a used one."
263167,1,Bizarre,"If you follow the instructions in this book, you're in peril of fast becoming an automaton with OCD. This guy must have a real issue with cognitive freedom, and the experience of freely associated thinking. It's nothing that hasn't been said before by countless others, and I didn't appreciate the constant references to the Bible- should have been more upfront about that. Sorry, have to run, I just had a bowel movement and I have to write that into my schedule."
263184,1,Don't Order. Poorly packaged and Broken,"When I received this frame it was broken! So I did a return and asked for a replacement. In my return I stated that is was broken because it was improperly packaged. Yet, I get the second frame and it is too broken, the glass is shattered. It would be a beautiful frame if I could get one not broken!"
263188,1,Great idea but not so well done.,"This series features Professor Greenburg's exploration into the world of opera. It would be a great idea, if it weren't for the fact that most of it consists of Professor Greenburg's conjecture. He dwells on Primitive music for far too long than is relevant for Opera. And he is quite the opinionated Professor with his ideas such as ""the composer as dramatist"" not the performer. And so forth. Every so often, he gets into the history and facts that make Opera interesting. But for far too much of time, he simply conjectures and I found myself disagreeing with most of his conjectures. Even though, I'm an admirer of Opera."
263208,1,Biggest anticlimactic album ever,"All I can say is this album is a let-down. Rapture is a great song, but after that the album goes downhill fast. If you like Rapture, download the single, the rest isn't worth listening too."
263237,1,wasted money on a lie!,less than 1 star it never came in the mail! dont use this company that amazon gets it from! i'm still learning how to trust these non amazon websites that amazon works with. my choice... if it's not 100 proof from other poeple don't buy it!
263261,1,Poor warranty,"I have a DCP-1000 at home. One of the reason I bought this machine was because the toner is separate from the drum, making replacement cheaper and more friendly to the environment.But when the drum goes bad just beyond the one year warranty you are stuck with a $170 dollar replace cost. Called Brother and they were not willing to fix or replace drum."
263270,1,They break constantly!!!,"I have never written a negative review; however, these chairs are awful! They constantly have to be tightened, and one fell apart with my three year old sitting on it. I would strongly advise not purchasing these."
263348,1,Zero,"I was hoping for a surprise with this one, but all the money and the best producers can't make this sound good. Kevin has an okay voice for rap, but he is just not good at it. The songs are just bad."
263381,1,Greatest Hits? NOT REALY,"Past to Present is poor greatest hits album in my opinion.There are five new songs,so that leaves 9 songs that are hits?This CD is very skimpy and lacks many of Toto's best songs.If you want to own a Toto CD you should buy Toto or IV,those are their best albums and they both represent the band much better than this CD."
263392,1,"The most overrated actress since - well, since ever","I love art house and foreign movies, so it was a no brainer that I'd rent this.It was boring. And this Jennifer Lawrence person, is not a great actress. She's nothing.And now she is dressing like a vixen and trying to be a sex symbol. She is no great beauty.I see women more attractive than her working at Target.Get real people, this movie and this actress are nothing to be impressed with."
263394,1,disappointed,not what i expected. the main actress was excellent in the movie. but this movie dragged on . you could wait for it to come on tv. not worth the purchase
263414,1,Failed After 3 Months,Right earbud died after three months use in the gym. I've read many of the one-star reviews that all appear to have the same problem. Seems to be an issue with sub-quality conductor in the wire that breaks apart with regular usage. Nothing can be done except for JBuds forking out the cash for a bit more copper in their design.
263458,1,Not for Active Use,"Purchased one set and liked it until it went dead within a couple weeks of daily mobile use (commuting, walking) with no visible, outward sign of damage. Amazon promptly replaced for free, but now the left and right buds in the the replacement set are cutting in and out after a few weeks of use, again without any external, visible sign of damage. There were no notable incidents (drops, etc). The problem in the replacement set seems to be in the connection to the ipod since wiggling it appears to affect whether sound is present in either or both buds.Another pair that is only used only occasionally and typically at home still works great after a few months.Bottom line is that this product does not appear up to withstanding normal wear and tear from active, mobile uses."
263461,1,These Die In Less Than 90 Days - Read On...,"When the first pair died after a couple months I figured I did something to cause the right ear to short. Couldn't imagine what. I'm a 40-something female. We're not known for being ""hard"" on headphones. So I order a second pair primarily because these fit and stay in my ears. And guess what? The second pair died at the 90 day point also. So it's not me. It's them. THEN I see these other reviews with a similar warning. Wish I had known. But now you do. Stay away. $50 total for two pairs and no headphones."
263475,1,Not noise reducing,I bought these specifically for the noise reduction. They don't reduce noise anymore than normal earbuds. Sound quality is very good and they feel cheap. The one plus is that they are fairly comfortable. I bought the e2c from shure for noise reduction and they do a much better job at reducing noise and are higher quality.
263511,1,not really what I was searching for....,"I suppose this book would be good for those wanting at best a cursory glance at the world of AI (I applaud the author for the breadth of material covered), but for those looking for any practical grounding into AI, this book falls sadly short. There are examples in each chapter, but it seems that what theory is explained is just barely enough to get you by to understand them.I though the book would be more in-depth. Plus there are several annoying math slip-ups."
263525,1,I stopped using it after six months,"Perhaps I received a defective model. Perhaps it was damaged during transit. All I know is that this piece of luggage has a tendency to jam and remain closed at the most inconvenient of times, and usually in public. Slamming it around, jumping up and down on it, or other extreme measures do not seem to fix the problem (I am, of course, exaggerating, but I have to admit that there were times that hard fists really were applied in hoped of persuading it open, to no avail). I finally gave it up for another briefcase. I do not want to have to wrestle with my briefcase each time I want to grab a pen from within.If you are looking for a briefcase, don't get this one unless you don't care about getting at what's inside without a struggle. Go for something a little less rugged and with less of an attitude. At least you'll be able to use it."
263546,1,yeah...,"As plainly as I can put it:This is the WORST movie I have ever seen in my life. Keep in mind, I've seen Zombie 4: After Death!!!!Silly beyond belief with the lame inserts of the video game footage, the wretching acting (i wanted them all to be killed) and the stupid, crazy over the top main bad guythis movie...i cant even believe anyone paid money to have this PRODUCEDStay away, or you will smash your face into a wall in hopes that the blinding pain will force you to forget what you just watched."
263606,1,UGGHHH,"well i am having so many problems with this item that i don't know what to do, the software that it came with will not work with my windows vista computer, (i think that maybe vista is the real one at fault here,)but it was working for a little while, kind of,but it suddenly stopped, anyway i've just about everything, even restoring the system to factory settings, which is always a last resort for me, NOTHING. anyone have any ideas aside from buying another modem?"
263608,1,Not Commercial,"I ordered these for my wife thinking I was getting commercial grade products. The thing that stands out the most in the accompaning booklet was the phrase""not for commercial use"". The non-stick capabilities are great but these are thin cookie sheets that sell for a couple of dollars... We have real commercial heavy cookware and this does not compare at all. We were very disappointed."
263610,1,"Calphalon 9"" roud cake pan(Y3109)","Do not waste your $ on this pan.I had to return it to the store.The side bakes much faster then the center of the pan.As the matter of the fact, the center of the cake was still not baked properly after the time was up in my convection oven.Other cheaper brands of bakeware performed much better."
263675,1,6 Uses Only!,This product was not clearly specified being this is not a cooling comfort gel you can use and use over and over again. Only 6 uses per set of pad. I just think this should be made more clearly online so the next person who purchases this item does not get fooled in thinking that this is a pad they can always re-use.
263681,1,Not worth buying,"I boought this product to use at my gym, and it failed to pick up the signals from the in-house broadcast system. It also had a very awkward opening for inserting tapes. I ended up throwing it away."
263736,1,Quite possibly the worst movie I have ever seen,"I purchased this based on a recommendation from some one else. It started out in a manner that I thought would make the movie funny, but it got worse and continued on for the remainer of the film. When it was over I was thinking ""there went an hour and a half of my life that I will never get back."""
263773,1,"On hardback or paperback, this book is trash","I wasted my money with this book, don't make the same mistake"
263801,1,DEAD after a couple days,"I used this thumbdrive w/ my desktop, no poblem. Pluged it into my laptop nothing other than suggestions to format. I checked it back on my desktop still ok. Both are running xp SP2, long story shortened, I finaly hit ok on the format option as Imation says is no problem, it nevers complete the format, on ether machine nor can it be read."
263803,1,Good for beginners only,The video was not at all challenging for someone who works out on a regular basis. Waste of money for anyone other than someone just starting out.
263826,1,Only half satisfied,"Looking at the content of my order, the two packages were exactly the same but the actual memory's were different brands. (not what I expected) since I ordered two of the same brand, and I didn't recieved What I actually order. Thats My Big dissapointment. At this point I don't know if that's going to affect the performance of My computer"
263895,1,A TEXAN COMES COURTING,"SADLY, I KEPT THINKING THERE MIGHT HAVE BEEN SOME TYPOS. THERE COULDN'T POSSIBLY HAVE BEEN ANY EDITING OF THIS BOOK. I LAID IT DOWN SEVERAL TIMES, BUT BEING AN AVID READER, I KEPT THINKING THE REAL STORY WOULD BEGIN - - NOT!!!THIS BOOK HAS BEEN THROWN AWAY. I WOULDN'T EVEN PASS IT ON TO ANYONE. REGRET I EVEN SPENT FIVE MINUTES ON IT."
263903,1,"Great Imagery, Very Lacking Stories","While the images used in this book are fantastic, very well drawn and the color is exquisite, that's where the book ends.The fables themselves are short-winded versions, very poorly written in my opinion. I bought the book to read to my five year old, who is definitely able to comprehend intricate stories and is extremely well-spoken for his age, but the stories offered nothing for either of us... they had no lead ins , often went straight to the point (most of the stories are only one or two short paragraphs), and only one or two even mentioned the moral of the story (which is often lost due to large parts of the fables being cut out).I ended up just telling him the versions of the stories I remembered while he looked at the pictures. Definitely not a good choice."
263917,1,Not What I Expected,This is another pop psychology book backed by little real science. The author seems to have written it more for self-therapy than for contributing anything to the scientific community. I would recommend reading a summary of the work and not wasting time with the rest of it. The only value add this brings to the table is the re-introduction of a personality disorder running rampant in modern American culture.
263972,1,Can't talk very long,I purchased this phone a couple of years ago and have already had to take it back to the store and replace it twice. The battery life doesn't last more than 10 hours when it is unused and only about 1 1/2 hours if you are talking on it. The clarity on it is great but the phone was not worth [what] I paid for it.
264003,1,waste of money,"It is just a fake, or something really bad has happen to invicta, cause it isn't what it used to be. Maybe looks fine, but the mechanics is terrible, the date changed every 12 hours and the hand got loose (minutes) only 3 weeks after I bought it. My old ugly Casio runs smoothly after 12 years. Run and seek for another option, maybe a Citizen. You'll thank me later."
264081,1,Superstar again? Flying without Wings okay.,"I truly enjoyed listening to Ruben during the AI2 season. My first complaint about this single cd is this, how many times do we have to listen to Superstar? I truly only purchased this cd because of Flying without Wings. The powers that be should have chosen another song for Ruben's single.Flying without Wings: Well I was really looking forward to owning this song after hearing it on the final show. I wish they had used that live version.I hope that whoever is producing Ruben's full album chooses songs and renditions of those songs wisely."
264165,1,Wow,This CD is the worst thing that has ever happened to music...ever. Somebody must have told Fred Durst that he was Zach De la Rocha. Don't buy this.
264166,1,Limp Bizkit sucks,"Honestly, does anybody even give a s**t anymore? I have made fun of this manufactured, no talent, washed up, pathetic excuse of humans band enough, and saying something would be like me repeating fourty things about this band over and over...Conclusion: This is crap!"
264202,1,Hard to follow with all the typographical errors,"It's hard to say if this is a good book or not, I spent so much time trying to figure out the exercises with all the errors that I couldnt even finish the book. Many of their Figures do not match the explanations and sometimes it was so confusing that I could not complete the exercise. I would definitely not recommned this book to anyone new to flash; what a waste of money!"
264354,1,Not a lot of help,I hooked it up and the unit sent a signal back to the dash with a series of flashes using the check engine light indicator. Looked up the problem codes and replaced the part (over $200.00 US) that was the the probable cause and the problem resurfaced. The unit is not equipped with accurate data read outs to give you enough data. Using the unit on my 1987 Supra was a waste of time and money.
264414,1,Didn't like it.,"I bought this and all the subwoofer would put out was a Thump sound for the bass-lines. No real tone, just a thump. I took it back for a logitech x220 and I am much happier.This also has one other HUGE problem. When I opened the box there was a sticker on the subwoofer stating that there is no magnetic field protection around the unit. Don't set it near hard drives, disks, tapes, etc. That worried me and was the other reason I returned it."
264464,1,BIG PIECE OF JUNK/BIG CHRISTMAS DISSAPOINTMENT!!!,"MY DAUGHTER HAD BEEN HOPING FOR A PASSWORD JOURNAL THIS YEAR FOR CHRISTMAS. SHE OPENED IT ON CHRISTMAS MORNING AND ABOUT 30 MINUTES LATER IT WAS IN THE TRASH! IT WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO USE AND WOULD ONLY RESPOND TO AN ADULT'S VOICE. EVEN THEN IT ONLY OPENED HALF THE TIME. MY DAUGHTER COULD NOT GET IT TO OPEN AT ALL OR EVEN ACCEPT HER PASSWORD. THIS EXTREMELY ANNOYING VOICE KEEPS SAYING, ""PASSWORD UNEXCEPTED"" AND THEN SHOUTS, ""INTRUDER, INTRUDER!"" OH PLEASE! A WASTE OF MONEY, A WASTE OF TIME AND A DISSAPOINTED 8 YEAR OLD ON CHRISTMAS MORNING!"
264481,1,Known gear jam problem,"There is a well known hardware failure problem with these printers called the ""carriage jam"" issue. The print cartridge carrier gets stuck to the right due to what HP calls a defective gear assembly. HP has been replacing these units outside the standard warranty, though not recalling them.Our company has a few hundred of these and the number of units failing at 13 months is astounding. If you own one and are having this problem you may be able to get HP to replace it outside the warranty period."
264567,1,Sad,"Oasis brings something to their music that makes is special. A Tribute is great, as long as it is NOT simply a band attempting to copy the Oasis sound. Doesn't work"
264582,1,Nugarum contemptor,"Professor Deutsch has written a book for herself and the handful of high literary critics that dot major university campuses. Sentences like the following abound: ""As Helen Thompson has recently shown--in a brilliant reading of Walter Charleton's 1688 Hobbesian rendition of the matron story as a meditation on the materialist conception of the self and the infinite substitutability of the object of desire--romance is individuality's faceless antecedent and feminine ghost, monogamous teleological narrative's serial alternative.""Skip this effort and read or reread James Boswell's great book."
264690,1,Couldn't get into it,"Follow-on to the equally difficult Many-Colored Land. Too much philosophy, too many wierd names (hard to pronounce), too much non-action. In short, too many pages."
264708,1,"Nothing all that interesting, Allen too full of himself","I was hoping to learn some interesting things from the Steinbrenner era being a huge Yankees fan. I figured, hey it's only $6.95 can't go wrong right? Wrong. Allen adds very little new information about the Yankees. The fact that he despises Thurman Munson because *gasp* Thurman never gave him any good quotes is ridiculous. He takes great glee in his petty revenge of refusing to vote for him on Hall of Fame ballots. I lost interest in this book right about there. As previously mentioned, the only real interesting chapter is on the Peterson-Kekich wife swap. Allen is a very vindictive man and I lost all respect for his opinion following this book. Not worth a read."
264725,1,Not where it,"Not funny at all, I remeber seeing this movie I spliit a side it has changed. I murphy bed is cute but worth it."
264766,1,Irritating Disappointment,"As to whether you should buy the DVD version of the film, I recommend that you buy it if you are a fan of the irresistibly beautiful Jennifer Connelly, or if you are a fan of the precision performances of Keanu Reeves. However, you may be disappointed to find that the movie deviated significantly from the original 1951 version."
264775,1,pretty boring,Like the rest of the reviews I found this movie pretty bad. Maybe its because i've seen the orginal so much but the acting was so poor. Its like they all new it was created for the special effects. Its just a slow paced poor re-make.
264902,1,Inflated Price,"This paper-slot top to the Slim Jim recycling container fits the description. Nothing is else positive about this product, especially the price, which at $30 is ridiculous! It doesn't even snap on the top of the container; it is just held in place by the lid's overlapping edges. I give this two stars because I believe the inflated price is a big negative factor. Please comment if there is a generic brand lid available that fit Slim Jim 3540, 3541, 3554 containers."
264907,1,More Howlers,"Found another serious error in this book: on page 75, the four layers of the TCP/IP protocol suite are defined as ""Application, Transport, Internet and Network"". On page 505, the the four layers of the TCP/IP protocol suite are defined as ""Application, Transport, Network and Link"". Gosh, hope that's not on the exam...."
264951,1,Dissapointing movie,Being a big fan of zombie movies I thought I'd give this a try. It was ok but I couldn't get through the whole movie. There was just no interest in the lame plot or the unexciting characters.
265060,1,Unreliable,"I bought this from a national retailer last October based on the very high rating from Consumer Reports (it's highest rated corded string trimmer). It was only used once that fall. I got it out again this spring and used it a few times until it broke. The motor would run at high speed, but the trimmer wouldn't spin. I took it apart and found that the belt had melted one of the parts. This made it so that the belt wouldn't stay in place and would slip off. So, basically, I was able to use it 4 or 5 times and then it broke. Since it's well past the 90 day return, I'll either have to work with B&D warranty, or toss it in the trash. This is the same problem that others have reported in the reviews here. This is a completely unreliable product. Do not buy it."
265310,1,FINE FOR KIDS,"This apron is thin and SHORT--""full length"" for a child. When you include the exorbitant shipping rate, it's just not worth it."
265401,1,Not the item named and shown,"I did not receive a Finum Brewing Basket. I received something similar, but not the Finum brand item specified in the Amazon description. If Amazon does not have it in stock, they should say so rather than shipping a different product."
265444,1,it stinks!!!,"This story and character is too old, too white and too male... It doesn't go anywhere, but down... Leaving out the good parts and ruminating over the trivial parts of the main character's life, the book was a train going nowhere..."
265464,1,Metal quality scares me,"We have been using this for lemons and limes for about a year and while it does a great job and is very sturdy, I am concerned about the fact that the exterior coating has been worn away from the juice and the cast aluminum (I am guessing here) is exposed. I think we are probably ingesting aluminum oxide and that concerns me. It would be nice to find one of these in a sturdy stainless steel that is not a cheap Chinese knock-off."
265466,1,pure garbage!,"brain damage productions is the worst horror film studio on earth. makes troma looklike anchor bay if they had their head up their arse's. i once owned a copy of this film and it did nothing for me so i took it back and swore this JUNK studio off. tiffany shepis is one of the worst horror films actress's there is, next to amy andrea ""former miss howard stern"" brookes hollness(yes,she married ned arnel hollness(aka carlos mencia), both are now hacks!!"
265500,1,I want my money back,"Having read and enjoyed many of the author's previous novels, was surprised to find this deeply disappointing and predictable - strange that an armchair reader could forecast immediately what the experienced government agent could not! The few females appeared as one-dimensional characters, obviously only there to provide the compulsory sexual element. The national stereo-types were laughable (dodgy Cockney chap; cold, indifferent Chinese). The wet ending did provide one surprise, although if I had not been brain dead by this time, I probably could have worked this out too."
265541,1,"Fun, but a real buzzkill too.","I had this game a while ago. I loved it almost as much as I loved the SNES version. I liked being able to play a girl, and to get a cat, and I also liked that this was back when you could decently play the game and turn a good in-game profit WITHOUT the optional help of the sprites (all other HM recently, I've noticed you NEED them...I'd rather do the farming myself than pay a stupid lil sprite to do it)...but I was sorely disappointed that the marriage system is completely missing from this game.And thats not the worst of it...This is a 'real time' game, and after a while, either it decides you're not playing enough, or the time system just breaks...either way, unless you play it almost nonstop, it will start killing your plants and your livestock will mysteriously hate you.Its good fun while it lasts...but it doesn't last long enough to even win it."
265546,1,Not pleased...,"The reason I decided to purchase this product was because the trimmer in the picture is slim and compact. I needed a slim, compact trimmer that would fit well in my travel case. The trimmer I received is nothing like the trimmer in the picture. It's not the same trimmer at at. Same brand, but totally different. It is bulky and that defeats the purpose for me. I already have a bulky trimmer, I wanted a slim one.As for functionality, it's not the worst...but still rather unimpressive. It makes a great deal of noise, but doesn't remove much hair. It doesn't cut as close as I would like it to either...it leaves stubble and I end up having to finish the job with a normal razor, which is hard when your just trying to touch up. When shaving with the little light on the device becomes how very quickly.All and all, I am not pleased. To the seller, you need to update your pictures and send the item you show, not something different."
265571,1,Waste!,"Hello...is this thing on? Does not pick up a thing! Light, compact just as it states but that's about it! Pass!!!!"
265579,1,-,"well, this game , ithink, is just a bit too-blahh-.its probably just me, but this guy only walks! the days are too short, and there are too many things.of course if you want a game like this, skip my review, but this is what i think. i just hate this game!! annoying how slow this guy is! you cant ask a person the same question twice if you already have a wife.and there are like 30 people in the house. i just dont like it."
265589,1,Molly's Folly!,"How did the author blow up three not so complex subjects up into a book while intending to make a ton of money of idiots like you and me? She added a bunch of verbage and LOTS of pretty pictures...This book left me DAZED, CONFUSED and DISMAYED. Dazed because I suffered through 600 pages of verbage. Confused because I dolled out $39.99 for a book I though would help me. And dismayed because I don't understand how such a crappy book ever made it to print!"
265631,1,NOW is going down the drain...,"I thought the NOW series was all about variety! Not anymore. I can only find 2, possibly 3 songs on this cd that I like. Now I realize that i don't have the same taste in music as everyone else, but come on aren't you people getting sick of Britney? And they keep putting the same kind of music on these CDs anymore. Now 8 was good and so was Now 4 but as for the rest..."
265658,1,Disappointed viewer,"Lousy director! Actors almost always soto voce or whispering. I have accute hearing and even I could not hear or understand them! Especially the foreign actors with accents.AND they changed the story around so much it was unbelievable. If you read the book you'll understand what I'm saying.Sorry, but thumbs down on this one..."
265665,1,Nintendo DS Lite Screen Covers,i have to say that i wasn't satisfied with this product. there were no instructions because the packaging was in Japanese...
265679,1,Risky Departure?,"I did not like this album and I have a fan for a long time. I believe that Ms. Mattea's voice does not have the verve and quality of just a few years ago. It is a departure, in more ways than one."
265824,1,CAN IT BE WORSE?,"I purchased over a dozen & ONLY ONE still works. The others worked at the beginning but never recharged by shaking them or if they did, the light was dimmer that a wrist watch! As far as I am concerned, this is garbage material!"
265856,1,Lo peor de lo peor,"This watch is a piece of garbage, a junk. It never worked. Es una lamentable pérdida de dinero tiempo y NO LO COMPREN, evítense la pena. PLEASE DO NOT BUY."
265871,1,doesnt even work,"I ordered this game because I lost the codes to install the titans expansion on my new computer. I received the dvd-rom, attempted to install, and the disc won't even start up/initiate installation. What a rip-off. Amazon sucks!"
265926,1,It doesn't add much to the understanding of Warren Buffett,"Don't get me wrong...the book isn't awful. It is just that it is more of a compilation of 3 sources of Buffett-isms and investment psychology than anything else. If you have read Warren's Letters to Shareholders, and Peter Bernstein's ""Against the Gods - The Story of Risk"", and have ever heard Charlie Munger speak, there is nothing new here. The author is a qualified mutual fund manager, and I commend him for not plugging his own fund throughout (though he does plug his first Buffett book many times.) But precisely because he has written 'one of these' before, I view this current effort as irrelevant. Go to the sources...get online, read the letters yourself, read ""Against the Gods"" and read ""Buffett - The Making of an American Capitalist."" Those give you much more color, flavor, and insight on what makes The Oracle tick."
265994,1,"Promising start, lousy finish","This was my first experience with the author, and I was especially intrigued by the blurb. But what started out as a scientific fiction page turner of high merit later turned into a rather unsuspenseful and unbelievable (even taking into account the ""suspension of disbelief"" factor). This became more problematic as the author switched from a rather strong scientific premise to a character-driven drama driven by characters that lacked depth and really weren't all that interesting anyway.The plot turns also veered off the original trajectory and left me scratching my head why Bear had gone from rather complex and gripping to formulaic. Only the strong beginning kept me from abandoning this book toward the end."
266024,1,Sure it was a good follow up but does it even touch Ender,"Come on guys, lets all face it that Orson is a great writer but wouldn't we have rather had a sequel to Ender instead of one of his tag-alongs. Ender was the greatest, therefore none of his glory should have been taken away by the fact that Orson was hoping to grab people's attention by using Ender's legacy....For God's sake look at the title. Card looks like a pimp trying to prostitute Ender's name for more money."
266096,1,wiggles accordian,A little tight to play. Has different character buttons that play their songs which finish before another song is allowed to play. Cute toy but a little hard for real little ones to play the accordian due to its stiffness.
266113,1,basically a waste of money,"Totally boring materials, my 3 kids weren't the least bit interested in any of it and frankly, even though I am learning German too, neither was I. The CD nearly put me to sleep. The picture dictionary is probably the best item included but it's got only a few words. We all read it together a couple of times, which takes only a few minutes. Thankfully, there is much better stuff out there that I've been able to find and they enjoy--live and learn I guess."
266205,1,"Beware, Never worked. Nice piece of garbage.","After reading all the reviews, I decided to take the risk and order this player in the 2 Gb version (e250).The player was nice in outside, I get to my house open the box, charged the player and.... nothing happened.The player started and after the San Disk Logo, it went into a black screen. I follow all the instructions on the FAQ in the San Disk web site, and in the instruction book in the included CD.After reseting the player it alternates between a black screen and a stripped one. The player never worked.I packed everything and will send it back to Amazon. I will ask for a refund and I will buy an iPod from my local retailer.It's a shame, it was a nice player"
266242,1,did not work,"The dvd did not work, no replacement option and I have to paid shipping for a refund. Product cost $4.99, shipping $2.99. Not worth shipping back. Basicly I lost $5.00"
266244,1,Too Hard,"This book is too hard for kids and even adults. Sometimes you think you found the item they are looking for, but it's so far fetched that you don't really know if you found the right object or not. I DO NOT recommend any I SPY books, I'll be sticking with Waldo for my family for now on."
266312,1,Awful,"The Connected Math series is utterly useless. My 13 yr old for the first time, now hates math. The title of the series is a joke, my son feels very disconnected to the concepts. As a parent, I find it difficult to understand, the language is terrible. Our public schools our using them & the teachers hate it. ( The one star is because Amazon makes you give at least one."
266313,1,Best used for kindling,"I'm normally against book banning or burning of any sort, but for this entire series of so-called textbooks, I'll make an exception. A one-star rating, frankly, is too generous.If you're already a mathematician who enjoys no instruction whatsoever along with mind-numbing ambiguity, this is the book for you.If, however, you're a middle-schooler trying to learn and understand new math concepts, you could learn just as much by banging your head against a wall. Which, by the way, is probably what you'll end up doing out of frustration, as will your parents."
266332,1,not that great,"This book was very disappointing - from the cover to the contents. The cover image you see on the info. is not really a cover, it is only an image on a small piece of paper wrapped around a potion of the actual blank cover. Then inside, the information is so general and shallow, that it is virtually useless. I wish I had saved my money for a book that actually had some academic significance."
266340,1,Not what you want... or what you need,"This juicer is easy to assemble and to clean but the yield is very poor compare to other juicers like samson or omega, the pulp comes very wet, so you will basically will get less juice from your veggies... that will be more expensive at the end than buying a more pricy juicer. It is ok with leafy veggies, not so good with weath grass but terrible with carrots, you will get almost nothing out of a carrot and mine stoped working after it got chocked with a carrot. There are better products in the market..."
266386,1,"Please, Prof... DON'T DO IT!","If you're a professor out there trying to see if this book is any good... please, don't buy it. It's horrible. It's practically in Greek and I don't think Plato could've understood it. My class is going quite well and I understand the material. I just wanted to review the text for the final because it's departmental. I feel stupider for having opened it! I used a friend's text instead. Please... look elsewhere!(Sorry to any student who've already had to buy it.)"
266414,1,The name says it all,Add me to the list of people who are having a maddening time with Cranky's head falling off constantly. My son loves it but is himself frustrated by this poor quality. I quite understand that with all things Thomas there are certain elements that you just have to have BUT if you're not facing desperate need from your child then I would skip it.
266446,1,Not so good,We were not happy with this Panettone at all. It was extremely dry and not what we have had from other brands in the past. We have had much better from less expensive breads. Would not purchase again.
266515,1,Not satisfied,"I felt like I was tricked when buying this dvd. It says the complete series but it's only disc 1 of 4. How would I know how many discs there are suppose to be. Not to mention, I wasn't sent a backing slip so that I could return it."
266545,1,Graffiti World,"The color photos are cool. It's too bad so many photo's are missed credited or listed as ""unknown"". Big mistake if your trying to catalog or archive anything especially art. This deprives the artist his place in history and the credit he deserves. It also prevented this reader from learning something new . I enjoyed the CMP and Cope stuff. Over all there wasn't enough I liked about it for me to recommend this book. The up side is I just got hip hop files and I love it :)"
266584,1,i don't like it,"i don't know why a lot of people like this, but i really don't. it seems like the plot of a hundred other animes out there, it's really predictable. and why do everyone have long hair?"
266593,1,"badly written, needs work","The author brings up controversies on which there realy isn't any disagreement. Did any of the Tsar's children survive? Their corpses have been found and DNA tests proved their authenticity. While his son's body was not among the bones it is unlikely that the kid survived. If he did, why didn't he leave russia, and claim the money which the russian royals stashed in swiss banks? The Tsar's son was a hemophiliac and couln't have survived into adulthood, as there was no treatment for hemophilia in those days. Why doesn't the author think of this? Was there a King Arthur? Maybe there was a celtic chief named Arthur or urther, and some silly monk used his name when writing a story. There's nothing to debate about. As for the other issues, the autor merely skims over them. He doesn't make any sensible conclusions, and the writing is poorly structured. Any high school student reading this book will know more about the material than the author."
266723,1,no product,"I ordered in January, never received, supposedly ups left on doorstep. I""ve never had anything taken before. I emailed them, no response, I filed a claim and still hasn't been solved."
266727,1,Scratched,"Mine too was scratched out of the box. I wouldn't really care except it's scratched right where the screen is and is fairly large. I bought it simply to put in a Bose Sounddock because I didn't like the fact that the screen was exposed. It looks really sharp there (minus the scratch)Has anyone got a non-scratched one? (ie, is it even worth trying to replace it.)"
266735,1,Save yourself the aggravation - DON'T buy this product,Unfortunately I bought this camera elsewhere also and payed much more for mine. There is a reason that they have LOWERED their prices (to meet there LOW Quality!!) This camera has serious wiring issues - too many connections to get fowled. I only owned it one year and it has been sent to the shop twice (in the shop more than on the boat)- and is still there. The service is ABOMINABLE - they currently can't locate the camera that I shipped them in August (now December) - despite having USPS confirmation and assigned repair number. (The two people with whom I have had contact in regards to the problems have also been very rude!)I would highly recommend looking into the Sea Viewer camera line before wasting your money on this JUNK !!
266747,1,Good-Bad Movie,"Belushi is soooo embarrassingly bad that his performance actually makes the movie worthwhile.The film overall you ask ? Well, there's a very good reason for its relative obscurity...it's just awful."
266781,1,Only because zero isn't an option!,"This book was awful. Totally repetitive, simplistic, and sexist. Don't waste your time or money. It's authors like this who give the self-help genre a bad name. Gray is a terrible writer, and the information he gives is common sense."

266817,1,This was not inspirational in the slightest,"Did no one else find it incredibly disturbing that, in the first episode alone, a young Sherpa passed away during the show's first few minutes and a very severely ill man was shown labouring for breath and turning white as his brain swelled? It was played as a heroic story of the climbers rescuing a man, but I just found it deeply unsettling. I couldn't take away the inspirational messages of conquering the mountain and all that tripe. I could only sit there and wonder, ""Is climbing a mountain for entertainment really worth it?"" as, on the screen in front of me, a man's eyelids were peeled open to reveal blank and unresponsive eyes, before the camera cut away to dramatic closeups of the climbers. Not to mention that Sherpa. Everyone is concerned over David Sharp's death, but what about the young man who died? Is he less important?This was too disturbing and voyeuristic. I couldn't stomach it."
266846,1,so what?,"i'm a guy that has gone more than 1,001 days without sex! girls can get sex whenever they want.. i even know fat, ugly girls who have sex. but nobody would read a book if i wrote one. it's a pretty boring story, really. ""well hmm let's see, most girls have boyfriends.. i'm not too exciting or outgoing.. i gained weight.."" wow, who cares?! i have friends who went for about 5 years without sex, too, and they were funny, interesting, wonderful people. they don't feel the need to write a book about it, though. life sucks. get over it!"
266852,1,"Oh, my God -- Just put it down","Floyd had real, original Civil War letters to work from in writing this book, and it is my firm belief that the author of said letters should come back from the dead and run Floyd through with a bayonet, or at least give him lice or something. The parts of the book -- mostly battle scenes -- that appear to have been taken from original documents are fairly good, but Floyd has failed to flesh them out, so that what we end up with is a disjointed, scattered account that lacks dramatic tension. The reader gets to the end of the book and thinks ""wait... did I just read something?"". The plot line concerning Wiley's wife waiting at home was treacly. And, as if that wasn't enough, the book is full of small but annoying errors: a piece of jewelry inscribed *19*-something for the year; the Orange Plank Road as ""a dirt path"". Overall, I'd say don't bother."
267006,1,Novuveau Flamenco,"When I purchased this CD (so I thought)...I figured what a great deal. The delivery was relatively quick, and to my surprise it was a cassette tape. No big deal as I still have a cassette player, and this explains the $1.98 tag on Amazon dot com. In fact the shipping cost more then the product.However I'm dis-appointed on the tape quality...the tape dragged from the start and I had to use a pencil insert in the cassette to get it started for rewind and or fast forward.What can I say...$1.98 + $3.98 shipping...Anyway..I call this a loss as there's no use sending it back as cost well exceeds the purchase."
267008,1,What a voice!,"I won't point out all the bad things about her voice. However, truely I can't listen to her for a longer while and it's becouse of that squawking (sorry, couldn't help) voice.It's definitely not the another definition of silence..."
267033,1,not enough for your money,"I was really disappointed in this book. If you expect to find out new interesting things for ipod, or how to trouble shoot if you have problems, this is not the book. Can't believe I paid $20 for this!"
267135,1,Only based on the samples posted,Samples sound great if and only if you like coughing and chair creaking.
267169,1,What??,"In a weekend of watching little known thrillers and ghost stories, we thought this one would be the most suspenseful and well made. Ah, how disappointed we are now. Although the lead actor is a stunning beauty, what the hell was she doing and where was the plot? The film moves too slowly and for the most part was poorly acted. The only believable character was Mr. Laine and he was on the screen for 20 seconds. The sexual undertones (overtones?) did not add the edginess that was required and ended up just being disturbing for disturbing's sake. If empathy was the intent in the abuse references, this movie really missed the mark in a very unsettling way."
267226,1,The previous reviewer has it backwards.,"The legends that the previous reviewer stated as false were the actual legends told by the original Yosemite Indians and they weren't Miwoks.If anyone has any investigative skills they can determine that Tenaya was not Miwok and neither were the Awahnees.This book was just written so that the Southern Sierra Miwoks can get federal recognition when they have questionable documentation.Most of the ""Southern Sierra Yosemite Miwoks"" descendents are really San Joaquin Valley Yokuts, Mono Lake Paiutes and Monos from neighoring tribes.I have seen the earliest census rolls and there are some BIG problems with the ""Yosemite Miwoks""."
267236,1,Really boring,"Sheryl Crow is sounding very uninspired here. The songs are mostly bland, and all run together. The worse part of the CD are all the slow songs, she sings in a soft voice, hitting high hotes it sounds like she is whining in song. There is no impact of these songs at all. Almost sounds in a way like Amy Grant's Lead Me On. So mellow and mundane, good music to put yourself to sleep. Anyway, this CD is slipping fast on the charts. There is no way this release is going to be memorable. Sheryl Crow has a lot of great CDs, but this isnt one of them. She needs to go back to something lively, upbeat, and if she makes some ballads, make them sound cheerful or with some life to them. Most of these songs are dead, and two many more CDs like this I guarantee her career will be too!"
267266,1,Go with the Dyson!!,"This vaccuum worked great for the first 2-3 months, but now it won't pick up anything, even after repeatedly cleaning the filters, etc! I find this so frustrating!! I tried this and the Dyson. I liked the attachments for this vacuum and the ability to get into corners and tight places. The Dyson was more difficult to manuever when using the attachments. However, now I am wishing that I stuck with the Dyson!! Don't make the same mistake I did by purchasing this vaccuum!!"
267307,1,usual insipid boring anthony storyline,"He's flogged Xanth to death now - surely Anthony must haveenough money by now... what started out as witty, refreshing and GOOD is now a pile of S#@T.He should take a long break and get some of the old magic back instead of churning these books out like there's no tomorrow!"
267317,1,Worst Xanth story I've read so far,"Most of the characters in this book were shallow things, easily forgotten. The main character was made so incredibly different than his appearance in Castle Roogna, that I no longer cared about him. Even Crombie, who is only referenced in this book, had his character changed.The story was moderately entertaining, and was the only thing that kept me from quitting this one early."
267350,1,wayyyyyy too much money,"what a disappointment!! The 2 ""chefs"" were boring and very low energy.The tips and tricks were just barely ok.... I have made pizzas for about 20 years and really was hoping to get some info for the $26.99 .... but was very dissapointed instead.Instead I was just getting tired watching the boring, very unprofessional presentation.Maybe it's good for people who have no knowledge about pizza making, but for me it was a total waste of money."

I know this book is not intended to be funny, but to me the poetry ""It is poetry:thoughts"" was just funny to me. I cannot give this book a fair rating because it is not a fair book. When will songwriter, actors, atheletes,models whatever! realize that just because they are good at one thing, doesn't mean that they are good at the other! God help the corporate/mainstream talent industry!"
267492,1,I would have picked zero stars if it was an option,"Sorry Jewel fans, but this book is bad. Worse than bad. A serious waste of the trees that were used to make the paper that went into this book. If you think this book is any good you need to consider the fact that you probably dropped out of community college because it was too hard, and if your father hadn't paid for your braces you wouldn't even have that waitressing job at TGIFriday's. I shutter to think of how many copies this book sold, because that number reflects only a fraction of the number of complete morons walking around today in the U.S. This book will some day be in exhibit right next to the New Kids On The Block Christmas Album in the museum of the downfall of the United States. And Jewel, if you're reading this, please do us all a favor and go back to living in that van in Alaska. The future depends on you."

Unless there is some unknown actor who happens to be in this video who is also named Bernie Mac, then don't look for the ACTOR Bernie Mac. While the video does show some interesting steps, by various instructors, I would not recommend it for ""learning"" how to step with a partner. Most of the instructions shown does not show ""techniques"" (i.e. turning, spinning, etc) and its designed for just SEEING various steps. Unless you plan on ""steppin"" in the same spot I would look somewhere else for learning how to ""couple dance"". There are even some parts of the video that just repeats itself within the DVD."
267541,1,Dont bother ordering this,"there is nothing special about this paper, not in the least bit different from the regular cheap copy paper for color or B&W. by the time you pay the ridiculous shipping price and wait to get it, you would be far better off to get regular copy paper from your local office supply store!"

267633,1,Disappointed,"I bought this simply because it has Rex Smith in it. But I ""WASTED"" my money. Think twice......"
267685,1,A disappointment,"to read Stuart Woods latest novel. The plot was thin and I never managed to develop a relationship to the book and the characters. Compared with all his other fine novels, this one is a failure. Save your time and money. Leave this book on the shelf."

267786,1,Very Disappointing CD Set,I was so disappointed in this CD Set. I had really looked forward to receiving this set because of the great song titles and great artists only to play them and find out that almost all of the tracks were live recordings and not very good quality at that. They sounded as if they were recorded in some bar room. I would definitly NOT recommend this CD Set to anyone.
267792,1,Interesting plot but disappointing methods.,"I became very interested in this book when I read the first two chapters in a promotional. The plot about the lawyer finding a heretofore unknown twin sister in jail was engaging and the initial writing caught my interest. HOWEVER, when I finally got to read the book itself, I couldn't stomach it. What bothers me the most is the massive amount of profanity used by the characters. Call me naive, (although after 20 years in the military, I can't say that I am) but I didn't know that any literature that was considered fit to be sold to the general public had so much bad language in it. Also, it's important to me in a book to be able to like at least some of the main characters, and by that I mean that they should have some admirable character traits, or at the least, engaging personalities. I have to admit that I've skimmed the sections with the worst language, which is much of the book, but I haven't found anyone likeable yet. I'd skip on this one!"
267830,1,"Fun, albeit troublesome, deceiving and unpredictable","I bought this item at a much lower price at a national retailer (Wal-mart). I had purchased it b/c the packaging made it look like it was much larger than it is. The orange ""things"" that are supposed to hold the sprinkler down are worthless. They are manufactured to open. Why? I don't know. But it is quite a hassle to keep them closed and stabilized on the ground. The ""hose"" that runs through these ""orange things"" can be slightly twisted in order to keep the sprinklers that wiggle sprinkling in the direction you want them to sprinkle, usually up. But you do have to ""mess"" with it each time you set it up and sometimes during play, so make sure you don't mind getting wet along with your kiddos when you turn it on. :) It is fun, once you get the ""kinks"" worked out."
267842,1,Misguided,"Although I did find parts of this book funny, I found it to be horribly irritating; I wanted to slap Nat, and Babs, oh and yes, Franny, too... truth be told, I wanted to slap the whole crew. What I found most troubling was the cover leads the would-be-reader to believe it is about a young woman discovering herself after her best friend gets married. This is true, but what the book focuses more on is the characters severe eating disorder. If you've had an eating disorder you can probably relate, but is that why you bought the book? Probably not. If you haven't had a disorder, then Nat will most likely come across as spineless and annoying.I *really* wish I had read the reviews before spending money on this book."
267907,1,"The conditions of the book should not be listed as ""good"" or new"". False advertisement!","The book received must has been exposed to the ""elements"" for a period of time? The edges have turned into brown color which has also got into the inside pages. It is dishonest to list it as in "" new"" or "" good"" conditions.I have also another copy of the same book from another vender. Same cost. This book is in perfect new conditions. What a difference!Since it is used as a gift. I have no time to return it.Very, very disappointed!"
267961,1,This book is missing pages,The book is missing all pages prior to page 27. Not really acceptable to not be able to read the beginning of the book.
267971,1,Rose Cross College,"The book has a nice binding, but the pages within are facsimiles (copies) of an old publication, which includes underlining, markings, and way too much ink on some pages, so that the letters are blurrs. The print on each page is too close to the binding and is actually incorporated into the binding: You can't see the end of each sentence on the left-hand page, and you can't see the begining of each sentence on the right-hand page.As for content, the last lecture is about the only thing that interested me: ""The Origins of Symbolism."" The begining of the book is some sort of written description of a ceremony; not very valuable to me, but I guess you would have had to be there to appreciate the written description. I would not recommend this book.By the way, the reason I purchased this book was because I heard a William Cooper (Hour of the Time) broadcast where he actually read aloud the lecture on ""The Origins of Symbolism."""
268027,1,"Yes, there are sync issues","I can't believe the gall of the publisher to post something in the Product Description area claiming there are no sync issues.I'm using an up to date Oppo blu-ray player, Samsung plasma TV, and a Pioneer receiver, all of which don't have any issues with other blu-ray discs.All you have to do is watch the 2nd song, Aneurysm, and watch Dave Grohl's drum parts. Something is off, just slightly, but it's off. It's obvious. Do a search...it's all over on other web sites.So disappointing. This should be a monumental release. I would suggest not buying this version."
268035,1,Sort of Useless,Anyone with a stove and the right ingredients can cook whatever they would at home. I bought it thinking it would offer something different and smart. Not really.
268036,1,Some good advice hidden amongst the muck,"There are some decent ideas in this book, but it is buried amongst a lot of misguided conceptions about childhood and very little in-depth research. In fact, most of Rosemond's theories are based on how he survived his childhood, which isn't one I'd like to model (the way his grandmother and mother raised him is not impressive). Because he turned out OK, he suggests all parents ignore their children, put themselves first, and only buy toys that were made in the 1950s. Please! If you can get past his lack of passion for children, there are some morsels that make sense, such as: a strong marriage forms the basis of a strong family life, so don't ignore your partner once you have kids. I prefer authors and experts who base their ""expertise"" on a few more facts (he'll quote one study and act like that makes his viewpoint absolute). If you want great practical advise from someone who seems to really love children, read Kid Cooperation by Elizabeth Pantley."
268056,1,Don't buy this one,"My company bought this nailer and had problems with it setting the nails. We own Senco SFN 30 and 40 and like both as well as the Porter Cable DA250B.

268072,1,"""Rise From the Grave, Little Sister...""","Another double-up CD release of these classic King Diamond albums, ""Them"" & Conspiracy. Although, teaming these two CDs together is no-brainer, it's better you purchase these two releases seperately(if you haven't already got 'em) Most hard-core Diamond fans will undoubtedly have these in their collection. But I guess this product might appeal to fans that are being turned onto the King for the first time.But in my opinion, these double-up CD releases are superfulous. It just seems like a feeble attempt from Roadrunner to cash in AGAIN on a artist they barely promoted in the first place..."
268073,1,Hard keeper,"This is the hardest virtual pet to take care of. Unless you jog a couple of miles everyday it's extremely hard to get the watts to give to pikachu, as the only game on it is a slot game which you normally lose at. The one good thing about it is that it has a battery saver feature where his screen will shut down when you aren't pushing buttons, so the batteries last a VERY long time. I got mine probably over 2 years ago and he still works perfectly today. I don't recommend this one, it takes too much effort to keep him. If you don't give him enough watts he gets unhappy and eventually runs away."

268267,1,Uggghhh! Frustrating and difficult to use guide,"We brought this guide along as the one of two that we chose to lug all the way across the Atlantic. One was this one, the other was Frommers France (much heftier than this one). After two days of trying to make this one work we finally gave up and carried the Frommers around everywhere because we could never find restaurants or enough information in the Access guide. It was really frustrating to stand at the Louvre, look across the street at a massive church and find absolutely no entry in the access guide. It is very difficult to find a restaurant by type of cuisine (French, Alpine, Chinese) and many of the hours of museums and restaurants where incorrect in the guide, causing us a lot of lost time in futile trips. Definitely opt for the Frommers Paris or Frommers France books if you have a choice. They were great"

268327,1,"Amazon not in the ""loop""","We ordered this item on April 16, 2005, and to date, no insert. Amazon, when asked about the delay, gave us the equivalent of an ""electronic"" shrug of their mighty shoulders and offered to ship it next day (Thanksgiving?) When we pressed them to contact the vendor (seemed logical) we were met with nothing, no useful response. Everyone we have talked to that has used the insert is enthused, wish we could say the same about Amazon (at least in this case) Have seen the item in retail stores at the same price, so that might be a better choice."
268336,1,Unbelievable plot and unlikable characters!,"Why read a book with characters you don't like and a plot that is so absurd that you feel silly actually reading it? When I start a book, I like to finish it, but this one could be put down at any time and you haven't missed a thing. Definitely NOT worth the hype that preceded it. In fact, it is one of the worst books I have read in a long while. Shame on you, Robert Stone!"

The ""Mix"" of songs take you through the early days of 90's Techno but ironically this CD has almost nothing to do with ""Techno"" dating past 1995. Even the title itself is redundant: Raves-(a now trendy term) characteristically go on ""All Nite"" anyway...or else they'd just be House Parties. Buy this CD if you you're looking for out-of-print singles like ""Speed"" and ""Bombscare"" otherwise take your money and go to a real ""Rave""..."

268530,1,Written as if by someone who needs to pay off a poker debt,"As someone who spent many years playing poker, this book left me feeling unsatisified. The writing could only be described as perfunctory, as if the author needed money in a hurry. Much better is ""Shut Up and Deal."" That book gave me an adrenalin rush that made we want to return to the felt table of my past."

268816,1,Sherlock a mess,"Ads for the new release lured me to watch the original via Amazon. What a disappointment. First I think it was well casted and generally moved along at a quick pace, but the story line jumped all over the place, the dependence on so-so special effects wore thin real fast and worst of all, the soundtrack was awful - even though we viewed the Blu-Ray version with a good home theater setup. I will NOT be going to see the sequel."
268849,1,Average text and an awful CD,"In this kind of product, expectations are mostly on the software that is supposed to simulate exam environment. I am really displeased at the quality of this most amateurish work. The dial reading never worked, and the questions of the math test are mostly based on miles to kilometers and vice versa conversions which are (according to the author) not included in the exam scheme! Do try harder please!"

268912,1,Don't buy this if you want to be warm . .,I bought this after my previous electric blanket (which I'd had for a year) had a malfunctioning control. Years ago I had a Sunbeam electric blanket and it was great. This one is practically worthless. I like to turn the blanket on about 15 minutes before bed to get the sheets warm because I'm usually freezing at that time of night--I keep the thermostat pretty low--and can't sleep if I'm cold. As soon as I get comfortable I turn the blanket off because I don't like to sleep with it on all night. This blanket doesn't even get warm: it barely takes the chill out of the sheets and even for that I have to turn it on at least 30-45 minutes ahead of time. If you want to get into a warm bed I would definitely not recommend this blanket.
268992,1,this guitar sucks,The guitar did not come with all the things it said it would. The condition when it arrived was good. However this guitar is just a really really bad quality guitar and it keeps going out of tune. Its a classical guitar but it came with steel strings instead of nylon and so it just would not make a very soothing sound. Even for beginner i would recommend investing in something better. Maybe rent a guitar if you are not sure you will stick with it. Renting is still cheaper than wasting $50 on this guitar. 2 weeks after i purchased this guitar i ended up buying a yamaha spx 500.

I slowly played with him with this bone and he took it. Then he just ripped them into huge chunks! He even swallowed some and vomited afterward! This are way too soft they should make it a bit stronger and add more flavoring.
269160,1,Not very easy to work with...,"The idea is good, but not completely thought out. The broad flat insulation around the wires plays havoc with a normal wire stripper, and if you were actually going to use all of the wire, there isn't nearly enough wall achors included with it to do the job. Being flat, it is very awkward and difficult to make a flat 90 degree turn, and the wire twists like a garden hose between anchors, instead of laying flat against the wall as it is supposed to.If you really want your speaker wire to not be seen, then it needs to be run up inside the wall into the attic and across and back down inside the other wall and wired to a speaker terminal. Otherwise, I think it's better to not pay so much, and just buy normal speaker wire that can be hidden along the baseboard under the carpet - or behind the floor wall trim, and alongside a door frame, etc."
269228,1,Struck Out Twice,"My son and I bought this item from JC Penney - twice. We returned it both times. Neither one worked. Okay, the blue light came on, but no radio, nothing else. We cranked and cranked and cranked and it didn't help.We were disappointed, and I am now looking for a much, much better weather radio."
269249,1,"Buttoms are hard to press, short range","As stated above the buttons are lower than the plastic that surround them. I have tried to use this while wearing gloves and it is very difficult the push the button down. Also, the range seems rather short in order for the remote to communicate with the receiver (about 30 feet or less)."
269282,1,"great price, not so great performance","After having this battery for 6 months now, I have to agree with those who have said to buy the genuine canon battery. It worked great for the first few months but now the battery is maybe good for 15 minutes of usage (taking about 20 pictures and reviewing them). I've used replacement batteries for many of my electronics but this one is definitely a pass."
269337,1,Seriously??,You want to charge almost $20 for a 12 minute interview that I just watched for free on youtube??
269365,1,Not weed less as advertised,I got it on time but it wasn't as advertised. It is not weed less and does't look like what they show.
269395,1,Waste of Money,"Bought this at Walmart when my baby was born about two years ago. I am so glad for Amazon where people can share experiences b/c I was wondering if I was the only one whose purchase failed in any way to perform. It falls off constantly, doesn't cover much light anyway and YES, it is a hazard falling off like it does so near my child. Finally decided to throw it out and find another one here on Amazon."
269403,1,Quit Working,Just got it this morning and had the day off so i play some guitar hero with my friends the bad thing is that it only last 4 hours! the guitar just up and quit on me and i've contacted red octane and they said i had to buy a new one and wouldn't even get me a free one. So if your looking for a reliable controller stay away from this one!
269465,1,"We all know it's not good, but what IS this stuff?","It is difficult to review this as I am unsure if it was intended to be music. Assuming it was, here we go:I could have made this record. Literally. At least twenty of the little sound effects used here can be found on my Casio keyboard (the one you can carry around your house that has about 30 or forty keys) that I've had since I was eight as well as a whistle that I once paid 25 tickets for at Chuck E Cheese. I am also capable of talking in a bubbly throat voice as well as creating names such as 'christie cornpop' or whatever it is. If this was meant to be an experimental record, then it's just stupid. If it's meant to be listened to whilst intoxicated, then it's perfect. If it's meant to be a joke, then the people who made this record might be able to redeem themselves from musical pseudo-pretentiousness and absolute stupidity."
269518,1,A little too flip,"This book is a little too flip in it's writing. Too casual, though the information seems legitimate"
269564,1,Bad Seller,"I recieved this VHS tape broken and in pieces, I wrote the seller, never heard back, no legible return address on package, i also wrote amazon and never recieved answer from them , it did not cost much, but it is useless, this seller should be banned from selling on amazon"
269568,1,"Passes ""Skype"" Standards...","Which means that, those guys in Taiwan don't have a clue!Being the ONLY typical ""home"" telephone Skype supports this: ""cheaply made, LOW speaker & ringer quality, DROPPING calls constantly"" telephone should be avoided...But wait, I need a telephone to use with my Skype service, without having to have my computer running or wearing those stupid-looking Headphone/Mic combos!!Geez...that only leaves this lousy RTX Dualphone 3088 series, right?!yeah, until the makers of the RTX dualphone 3088 step up and fix this junk of theirs...I honestly don't know of another VOIP phone maker that we CAN use Skype with!!I wasted $169+tax+shipping...but hey, I did get rid of Vonage & my ISP's ""hostage"" telephone services!!(wasn't there suppose too be an UP-Side to this??)"
269635,1,Didn't work for me,I bought this pump because of all the great reviews but I had nothing but frustration with this pump. I would pump for up to 20 minutes sometimes & only get 1 ounce if that. My milk would not let down with this pump at all. I ended up get a cheaper electric pump & had much better luck.
269683,1,Don't buy this!,"I replaced an Airlink 101 (has 2 antenas) w/ this router. My Airlink got much, much better signal & it was $30 something compared to $70 something for this. Now it's too late to send back & stuck w/ this junk. Amazon is awsome, of course. Just the product that is junk."
269722,1,Powerful enough to cover a room.,"Pros:1. According a website that monitors network equipment evaluations, 14 of 16 lab reports gave it their highest rating for wireless routers. For this reason, it is the ""top dog.""2. The California based tech department was very knowledgeable. The Filipino woman really ""knew her stuff.""3. The $100 price is very reasonable.Cons:1. The wireless waves failed to penetrate through two wall and a floor. After working for two minutes, the strength dropped to 25% and below. As a result, it was useless."
269832,1,Too oiled,Nice product but the face stays too oiled after shaving. Function pretty well and arrived on time. The price is goo in comparison with similar products. I preferred other oils from the same company.
269906,1,Bad stuff,"This is a known poison used in nerve gas. It will make your animal terribly sick, and can even kill it. If you call the company and complain hard enough they will pay for the vet bills, but they should really ban this product."
269919,1,Warrior : The Legend of Colonel Richard Meinertzhagen,"When I ordered this book I looking forward to reading about this great man, However the author's constant interuption of the story with his (the author's)innane snippets of life in some of the same places in Africa, almost total spoilt this book for me, If I wanted a book about Mr Chapstick thats what I would have ordered, what I wanted though was a book about Richard Meinhertzhagen. Having vented my wrath, the book does cover his life in some detail, I only wish it had been written by a better author."
269948,1,What a hassle!,I tried mounting this on my old cycling glasses but couldn't get it in the proper orientation. I bought another pair that I thought would make it work but I couldn't get it in the right position even with great effort. It might work for some people but not for me. Back to my larger mirror since I can get it lined up with only a few seconds of effort.
269997,1,PAINFUL to listen to,The reviewer that thought this album rocked must have had a massive coronary when he listened to Kix' other albums. Outside of 9-1-1 this album is garbage. It bears almost no resemblance to the terrific albums that came before it. If you're looking for an awesome rock band (I've always thought they would be a great opening act for AC/DC) you've found one but not on this record. Buy anything else from Kix and you'll be happy.
270006,1,Buy the MTV version,The dreadful mismash could only be understood by Tolkien Twits. It is dark and vague and wanders around without any real thread of plot. This lengthy and slow tale is beautifully filmed but lacks any substance. If you have nothing but re-runs of Gilligan's Island watch Gilligan. It will cost you brain cells but at least you will be entertained.
270007,1,kind of dumb,"I had heard the rave reviews for this movie and I must say I was quite disappointed. The movie was way too long and was fairly boring. The ending was really stupid and just kind of stopped in the middle of nowhere, which was basically an introdution to the second in series. What a bunch of weird, unbelievable characters in this movie as well. No chance I'll be watching the next two in the series. Would not want to waste my time."
270014,1,I fail to see it ........,"Despite it's accuracy to the original story, I fail to see why this movie is such a big deal. Yes it has a lot of good special effects, and yes it has a pretty decent cast. But it's nothing spectacular by any means. Some people I know are going nuts over this film like it's the greatest film ever, again sorry - I don't see it. I don't recall Frodo being such a weiner in the book."
270063,1,1 of the worst purchases I've ever made,VERY VERY VERY Dissapointing. Is this what MICROSOFT came up with to compete with IPOD!!? IPOD is 100 times better. my brother has one he bought around the time first news came out that Microsoft was gonna release the Zune to compete and even that IPOD is better. Don't waste your money. Get an IPOD. TRUST ME.
270074,1,Caveat Emptor!,"Well said by Tvshooter, ""I think Microsoft just wanted to get the Zune on the market before Christmas"". I have been in the software/hardware business for thirty years and this item has missed its mark! After playing with the zune.inf file and registering .dlls to get it to work, I finally called it quits and returned the product for an IPod! My gut instinct told me not to purchase a product that is version 1.0; however, since it was Microsoft - I thought - ummm - what the hell - let's give it a try! Well, dissapointing! I felt like I had returned to the dark ages when PCs first came on the scene. This was no way to spend a Christmas morning! I will wait for version 3.0."
270079,1,Buyer Beware,"After the reading the reviews, both positive and negative, I went ahead and purchased the Zune 30. Big mistake! My initial load of music and pics went smoothly but it all went downhill from there. The device kept freezing or timing out each time I tried to add new music or pictures. I re-installed software, did both hard and soft resets and neither worked. After repeated attempts I am now only able to use 5Gb of the 30 Gb I paid for. I am unable to add anything. Support has been totally useless. They keep repeating the same instructions never mind the fact that you have repeatedly tried these same suggestions. Before purchasing, I suggest you check out the forums out there to get a feel of other owners' experiences. Believe me, there is a reason that, for all its great features and good pricing, Microsoft has not been able to gain a larger share of the market. This device was a big disappointment!!"
270098,1,No support for Zune products,"DON'T BUY ANY ZUNE/MICROSOFT PRODUCT!! I'm still looking at a blank Zune screen and a worthless device because Microsoft refuses to admit there is a problem with Zune as of 12/31/08. Don't trust Microsoft, and don't buy Zune unless you just want to throw your money away!! I've never been a Mac person, but now it's time to change!"
270174,1,I am really dissapointed,"folks, I really thought that for 400 dollars, this item would be more... quality, i mean, it sounded ok, and after a week the rubber band was loosening so that it would slip when i played, this item is honestly trash, and the customer that reviewed it and gave it 5 stars is obviously being payed, i wouldn't want anyone else to go through what I went through... **sigh** i'm out 400 dollars, and they won't give me a refund,"
270175,1,"Well Intentioned, But Off Center","Mr. Lehaye's clear intent was to bolster our confidence in the Christian roots of our country. Unfortunately, his depiction while factual leaves out ideas that would give his reader's a better perspective on the Faith of our ForeFathers."
270207,1,Duped,"I purchased a DVD of a favorite movie of mine--""Mystery Alaska"" as I have always done. Little did I know, I was buying the product from a vendor in the United Kingdom. Thus, the format in the UK is different in the US and the DVD did not work. I know it's my fault--but I can't help but wonder why I was not told the vendor was out of the country, or asked if I understood the risks associated with different formats. I'm not happy with myself for this, but I feel I was a little taken advantage of by the process."
270244,1,Hollywood and Political Movies,"Other than an interesting performance from Douglas, this movie is bland, predictable, and follows the typical Hollywood agenda for a political movie. I'm ready to see a movie espousing pro-life rhetoric just so I can hear and see something different out of Hollywood.Overall, this movie just didn't push any buttons for me except I thought Douglas was interesting in a low key role which he hardly ever plays."
270254,1,Whistle is not loud enough,"I agree with the review from 2003. I also purchased mine at a store and after the first use was extremely disappointed. I loved the size as most teakettles tend to be too large. The stainless steel is wonderful and the I liked the lever on the whistle.Sadly, the whistle is barely audible. Actually, the sound can hardly be interpreted as a whistle. It sounds like steam escaping from something, not the whistling sounds that teakettles normally make. You must stay in the kitchen to wait for the water to come to a boil, plus there is some steam seepage from the lid when it's boiling. I would never purchase it again."
270273,1,Do not buy this pattern,"I have this pattern and do not recommend. After about two months it started to get the gray marks of my flatware on it. So now the plates all have gray marks and cups too. I called the company and even the website addresses the gray marks. Buy a special powder and clean it off. I don't know if you have time, but I don't have time to rub cleanser all over 16 plates, 8 bowls, etc. And after you clean with the cleanser, the next time you cut a piece of meat or stir your coffee, GRAY MARKS.I even thought I'd try another Pfaltzgraff pattern (my sister-in-law has the tan & blue plates with no problems), but when I called customer service she couldn't promise it would not happen on my new pattern. I just bought Fiestaware at Kohl's for $19 a place setting with a free fruit bowl.Also, they no longer make this pattern. So if you break, you have to buy at a place like replacements.com"
270363,1,not accurate,I liked the style and ease of use of this scale but it was inaccurate - it showed 4 gms over true weight -- not accurate enough for me and it also seemed to be inconsistent at times. I returned it and purchased a Chefmate stainless steel kitchen scale at Target for $39.99 which I love. It has all the same features - weighs up to 11 lbs and measures in increments of 1 g/.1 oz/1 ml. It also has the tare feature. It is has been very consistent and is more accurate.
270420,1,Broken multiple times,"I am sure that this scale would work great had it been delivered intact. I returned it once to get a new one and the second one was broken even worse.If you need a scale quickly, I would not trust Amazon to deliver a working one."
270493,1,History as He Does Not Know It,"The concept of extinction did not exist until the nineteenth century. Until then there was no sense that species evolved, lived for a time, and then went extinct. Because religion still held sway over so much of the world, there was a sense that everything God had ever created would still be found - somewhere.- Peter Ward ""Life as We Do Not Know It""""Thirdly, That there may have been divers Species of things wholly destroyed and annihilated, and divers others changed and varied, for since we find that there are some kinds of Animals and Vegetables peculiar to certain places, and not to be found elsewhere; if such a place have been swallowed up, 'tis not improbable that those Animal Beings may have been destroyed with them; and this may be true both of aerial and aquatick Animals:...""- Robert Hooke, Discourse on Earthquakes, 1667"
270507,1,Toshiba DVR-3 converts cash to trash in less than 6 months,"We got the unit, and it stopped working within 6 months.Further investigastion showed that the high frequency switching powersupply (line condtioner with NO transformers) was dead.Amy engineer will tell you.......... do not purposely make a designprone to the power surges and irregularities that are going to happen-------or else the unit will die an early death.So, toshiba saves $5 on a cheap power supply but assures the customerthat this unit WILL die within 3- 9 months.I think this is shameful."
270532,1,DO NOT PURCHASE VIVISCAL HAIR PILLS!,"It will give you a rash. DO NOT BUY IT! I only took two pills and the next day I had a really bad itchy rash on my neck and ears. I didn't change anything in my daily routine except for the viviscal pills. And then when I tried to return them they didn't let me. Which I understand because it says they don't do returns on open products but they should have warned the buyers that it causes rashes. And I'm not the only one. If you type into google ""viviscal gives rashes"" you'll be surprised at how many people had the same reaction some even worse. My skin is very clear so it was very noticeable the very next day. SAVE YOUR MONEY! P.s besides the actual product being horrible, the delivery was on time lol ^.~"
270615,1,McFlurry Maker-waste of [money],"I can mess up my kitchen for free, instead of wasting $25 and gaining a whole lot of aggravation! I tried to find the mfg's website to complain, but I ended up here. This ""toy"" has such a poor design, that it's impossible to get ice cream out of it. I had cream pour out of it uncontrollably, a slushy mixture of cream and salt...but never ice cream. The pieces don't stay together, they shift around, resulting in a huge mess....This toy is just junk. You can buy alot more ice cream with the money that this thing costs, plus keep your blood pressure down!"
270622,1,Brilliant and stunning!,I believe in the every growing rate of sophistication in our country and I'm sure with books like this we can take our government more seriously
270663,1,Terk HDTVa Indoor Amplified High-Definition Antenna,"The terk HDTVa might work for some people, but it did not work for me. Before you buy it try using a cheap uhf/vhf antenna. You might find one at the 99 cent store. I tried out a cheap antenna that I had laying around in my garage and it worked so much better."
270707,1,This book is poorly edited and omits important information.,"This book looks good, but as I used it to study I found some big issues.First, it's poorly edited.I found many typos, and the answers to the test exam for Chapter 13 are WRONG.In some cases they offered information that did not work. For instance, I could not get the ""WriteProperties"" event to fire for a persistable public class even though I followed their instructions to the letter (this may be a VB6 bug).Second, the authors claim to have covered skills in the exam matrix in certain chapters. However, after reading those chapters I found they hadn't covered them at all. A good example is the 70-176(21) skill (Using the Visual Component Manager). They were supposed to have covered this in Chapter 21, but included only a passing reference to it.If you use this book, you'd better double-check everything the authors say, and you'll need to refer to VB's documentation and other sources to get the full dope."
270740,1,Do not buy Netgear unless you're a masochist,"This router was a pain to install (definitely not plug and play) and the phone support was some of the surliest and ruddest I have experienced in a long while. I'm willing to overlook some bad service if the product is good (hello, can you tell I'm a Mac owner?) but this router sucks. It stalls all the time, and needs to be disconnected and reconnected at least twice a day. If I could give this no stars, I would."
270800,1,"buy for graphics, NOT reflective qualities","I bought these for reflective feature, for riding my bike at night. The graphics are pretty wild, but they DO NOT REFLECT LIGHT as advertised. I'll keep them just because the bold graphics stand out and at least that will attract some attention and provide a small degree of safety, just not at night."
270827,1,The wrong Alice,I order this movie thinking it was the Alice in Wonderland DVD. Gave the movie away did not like this movie.Would not recommend.

270924,1,Review Response,"Very disappointing, as was Hooked on Swing. I was expecting the quality of Hooked on Classics, but neither one was even close. I'm donating both."
271039,1,DAWNING = YAWNING,"DAWNING uses the disintegration of a dysfunctional family as the basis for a supposed horror movie. It also throws in a seemingly demented stranger who warns the family that some ""thing"" is waiting outside to kill them all---something EEEEEVIL.The movie talks you to death, the acting is pedestrian and it's all boring! There is no conclusion and during the end credits, it has the audacity to request you go the website and tell what you think IT is.I don't think the writer even knows what IT is. This movie simply stinks."
271078,1,A school counselor in Mississippi,"I purchased this book with intentions of using it for classroom guidance. However, Sophie's running alone into the woods to vent her anger is too troubling to me. Teaching our children to leave anger-provoking situations is important, but this is not the appropriate example. I can't present my students with a book that demonstrates potentially dangerous behavior to them."
271079,1,Inappropriate for Child with Mood Disorder,"I was disappointed in this book - I purchased it for my grandson who has a mood disorder and has anger management issues. I thought it might give him some alternate ways to handle his anger through the main character's experience. But, Sophie handled her anger by running away from her home to her favorite tree. Not a good alternative in our situation - running away is one of his inappropriate coping mechanisms. The story just reinforced this inappropriate behavior."
271091,1,Red Hat Linux Bible,"I bought this book with great anticipation, however as I started the install it went to frustration. I know nothing of Linux when I started this, and it became a disapointment. The information in the book generaly does not line up with the Linux I installed from the CD that came with it. Also the comands that he talkes about wer not present when I tried them. allot of the setup comands you have to install manualy, I had to do allot of trial and error. His book is also badly organized I find, I found my self fliping to differant sections of the book for the same item. Some of the instructions for setup at the install are in the middle of the book. This may be a good book for when you know what you are doing, but I dont recomend it for the beginner."
271136,1,"Do not buy this album, you'll regret it","My friend has this cd and he sings along with these lyrics meaningfully. It makes me sick. I don't like this band, all this guy talks about is how he's sad, becuase he broke up with his girlfriend. 1 or 2 songs is alright, but the cd is full of these songs. The guitar work is unimpressive, alll he does is play easy chords, or uses wierd tunings. I'm not agianst acoustic music(I like Dave Mathew's slow stuff), but this is horrible."
271237,1,Another annoying book of half-truths and prejudices,"Just once, I wish the people who churn out these amusing little handbooks on 'bad English' would do some basic research. For an example, on page 14, Cochrane says, referring to the titular phrase: ""This oddity, which seems to have emerged only in the last twenty or so years, presumably arises from a feeling of discomfort about using the word me, a sense that it is somehow impolite or 'uneducated.' ""Except that this usage goes back well over 400 years (Shakespeare uses both it and ""between you and me""), and has nothing whatsoever to do with hypercorrection or politeness. If it did, we wouldn't also see ""Me"" standing alone, as we do, not to mention ""Me and you"" in subject phrases. ('Myself', now - that does seem to be some sort of avoidance mechanism...)I recommend the Merriam-Webster Dictionary of English Usage's thorough treatment of this and other topics for those who want to know what's really happening with English."
271283,1,Worst Ive Ever Read!!,Im sorry but this book was the WORST book I've EVER read! Mabye It's just because i dont enjoy reading about a stupid monkey that knows kung fufu and wants to live forever!!!!! It had no point!!!!!!!!!!!!!
271340,1,Not helpful at all for a dyslexic student,The pen does not read as you scan. It stores a line of text and then reads it back. It doesn't save time on reading assignments. It takes about as long to scan and play as it does to read something few times.If you want to scan text into your PC so you can use a text-to-speech package you must get a flash upgrade and the cable. The $269.00 version of the pen is not the upgraded pen that interfaces with a PC.It may be useful to students with other disabilities but it's not an enabling technology for dyslexic students at all.
271376,1,Defective and too small,"The pool was too small for a 3 year old to stand up in and it was also defective. I wanted to exchange this item for a different model, and I was told that Amazon/Toys R Us does not have an exchange Policy even if the replacement item is more expensive."
271389,1,don't do it,"the material is very tacky and will be hard to remove from the included rolling pin. and then once you get the pin off and get a decent flat piece of material, when you go to give the impression, the material will then stick to the hand or foot upon removal ruining the impression, and you have to do it all over again. it was a horrible process."
271476,1,Too Much for Too Little,"Having enjoyed many of Lillian Too's books, I bought this one as soon as it was released. What a disappointment and what confusion! The book wasn't sequenced well and it was hard to know what to focus on in order to understand flying star feng shui. Too many concepts were included that could have been tabled for another book. I hope the Skinner book is more systematic in its approach so I can learn flying star feng shui."
271504,1,Battery Tender 021-0156 Battery Tender Plus 12V battery charger,"Not sure that this is a good unit. Keep having to replace brand new batteries. Have had the car checked for a battery draw by a very reputable electrical auto shop, and they think that I shouldn't use this. My car is a garaged car for the long rainy Pacific NW winters. I only take the car out on dry days, which sometimes are 3 months apart. The guys at the shop believe that this device is actually ruining the batteries, by ""Overcharging"" since I have smelled a very strong vinegar type smell. I thought that the Battery Tender WOULDN'T overcharge, but they say that's what has happened, 3 times, with 3 brand new batteries. They suggested that I only put it on the car for two weeks before I plan to use the car, which is hard to do, not knowing the weather that far ahead. Disappointed, but not sure what to do about it."

271566,1,DO NOT BUY!!!,"DO NOT BUY - you will have problems with Innova cookware like everybody else does and Innova will not do anything about it!!!INNOVA SELLS FAULTY COOKWARE DOESN'T HONOR WARRANTY!!!I would give Innova line of cookware 0 stars if I could because there is absolutely nothing positive about it. When I first got this pot it seemed ok. But after enamel started chipping off (very common problem with Innova cookware, as I later discovered), I contacted customer service and all they told me was:""That would not be covered by the warranty because it does not affect the function of the cookware.""One line, no ""sorry"", ""thank you"" or whatever. Not to mention this ridiculous and dirty way to dishonor warranty.DO NOT BUY or you will be giving your money to thiefs!"
271569,1,Tool sets are great but check the picture to make sure,"I love the way you can grab a set of tools that has a place for everything, go and get the job done, wipe the tools clean and put them away. If there is an empty slot or space I look for and find the tool and my set is complete for the next time I am called out to be Mr. Fix It. Less lost tools. I find the 170 piece set has the best value. It plus a hammer and I am ready to go"
271574,1,Very Disappointing,This cd collection was a very big disappointment.It in no way captures the wonderful spirit of the original animation.I do not recommend this music. It is very sterile and boring.Stay far away.
271589,1,Not for kids,This book is definitely not for young kids. I love reading to my 3 year old and he loves to listen to stories. The first few pages were like the traditional 3 pigs story and then it got wierd. It's not a story. The illustrations were great but it's more for adults than children. I was dissapointed after reading the other rave reviews.
271698,1,same problem as everyone else...,"This card works fine in my computer, but I bought it for my PSP. everyone at my work swore by this card. they don't seem to have any trouble with it (YET!) but i'm having a lot of the same problems as some of the reviews i've read. the card isn't recognized by my PSP whatsoever. I haven't gotten it to work once. If you're buying this for PSP, be warned! you may get lucky, and it may work... or it may not. thanks."

271769,1,Really bad.,"I bought a QPS back in April, I had configuration issues right away.I followed the tech support format and emailed them. Giving them benefit of possibly being busy or email issues I emailed four times over four weeks from seperate servers. They do not respond through support.Now the hardware failed, I repeated the email attempts with no response and have phone support three times in two weeks to give up in Cue after 45 minutes. No 1-800 number.Now I have a very high phone Bill coming and a useless QPS device that I will eat also.Please don't allow companies like this to thrive, which they all too commonly do in todays market.Buy elsewhere."
271796,1,"Bertie needs counseling, not a dog","A young boy named Bertie has an unhealthy fixation on the color BLUE. He soon extends this obsession to a pet. We witness imaginative play where Bertie hallucinates that he is petting, feeding, and walking his blue dog, even dragging the leash and collar along the ground. But since ""pretend dogs don't fetch sticks,"" Bertie must take his psychosis to the next level: now he *is* a blue dog. He barks like a dog, eats sticks, even scratches himself!Act II reveals Bertie to be the lucky recipient of a real dog. Yet he almost sinks into depression--sobbing into his hands and subsequently curling up into the fetal position--when it turns out to be a beautiful, spotted, black and white (but not BLUE) dog.Thankfully, a sudden inspiration allows the dog to be BLUE in name if nothing else, and everyone lived happily ever after. Too little, too late."
271823,1,LISTEN TO THE REVIEWS...,"I wish I would have listened to the reviews. I moved and packed my clothing in these space savers. I got to my destination a day later and half of the bags, all filled properly and with clothing, had refilled with air. A week later, and the remainder of the bags had also filled with air. A waste of money, but my move is over."
271856,1,Text corrupted by modernization,"It's fine, to a point, to modernize spellings of certain words, provided it doesn't alter the pronunciation (changing ""Sion"" to ""Zion"" is a no-no). However, the editors of this volume have also chosen to modernize punctuation to the point that it screws up the rhythm. For example, the contraction ""th'Aonian mount"" that appears in the opening of Paradise Lost becomese ""the Aonian"", as if modern readers wouldn't be able to figure it out on their own. This kind of meddling adds extra syllables to lines, screwing up Milton's metre and also insulting the intelligence of readers. If you want a really fine edition, shell out some extra cash for the Hughes volume."
271877,1,Speaker catastrophe,"So,I bought these from fry's a few months ago for a good price.I never had a single problem with these speakers, until moments ago, when my speakers suddenly stopped playing music/videos. I've unplugged, and tried continuously, but no such luck.What's killing me is I know they're not blown, because I can hear feedback when I touch the output tip.And I've even tested other headphones, so it's not the computer input.Don't buy this garbage. Save your money."
271936,1,Not worth the paper its printed on,"Fine for James C. Dobson to instruct parents to bash their kids, now that he's a big person, but I'd still give him a clip round the ear if I saw him on my jib."
272076,1,"Colors are faded, made in China","This divided server is made in China, not in England as the other pieces in this pattern. The brown floral design around the edge is light in color and it looks faded compared to other woodland pieces. It is ovenware. I have other ovenware pieces, that are not faded. The dog treat jar is also made in China and has lighter faded colors."
272121,1,Worthless!,"What Mr Chang has to say could have been said in half-a-dozen pages! His grasp of Chinese history is shaky. What he could and should have said is that all Chinese dynasties(the emperor-dyniasties: the main ones being the Qin, Tang, Sung, Ming and Qing) have gone through the same cycle of ruthless and bloody establishment, decline due to incompetence and corruption ending in catastrophe followed by periods of chaos. I do not disagree with his main thesis, ie that the present Communist dictator-dynasty may very well end like the others. For the sake of the Chinese I hope that the author's opinion is wrong and my fears are misplaced."
272177,1,Leaks at the neck,"I bought two of these, and they both leak from the neck. Not much use as a water carrier. I had an old one that I got in Ronda, Spain, that I used for twenty years, and never had a problem with it until the strap broke. I guess I should have fixed the strap?"
272217,1,Waste of Money,Seemed like good quality at first but after less than two years it's cracked and torn where ever it touches a corner of my grill. My last grill cover outlasted the grill I bought it for. This one is a big disappointment.
272314,1,What Happened To Ingersoll- Rand???,"I'll have to agree with the previous poor review of this grinder. This is just another example of CHINESE CRAP! Right out of the box it sounds like all of the internal parts are misaligned or the bearings were destroyed when it was assembled. This grinder will be returned ASAP. I have lots of IR tools in my shop and have always been satisfied until now, however those tools were made in America. I'm sure I'm not alone on this one. Don't waste your cash on this tool. ARE YOU LISTENING INGRERSOLL-RAND??? You are losing your customers!"
272330,1,It's a Rip Off,"What they don't tell you? Long time Reba fans already have this compilation, and MCA exposes the ruse themselves. Open the case of this 2 CD set and the CDs aren't named ""Love Collection Disc 1"" and ""Love Collection Disc 2"" like it implies by the back cover and track listing. No, inside the case, MCA has simply included ""Whoever's In New England"" and ""Sweet Sixteen"" - and, what's more? These are the same CD prints from those albums as they're sold individually, complete with original 1986 and 1989 copyright dates.If you don't have either of these albums, then perhaps this is a savings, but if you're a long time fan who already has both of these hit albums? Move on along, there's nothing new to see here."
272347,1,This bag is a fake!,Please research the brand and know what to look for when you buy designer bags. This one pictured is a fake. Louis Vuitton did not make this bag and does not hang any tags from the bag like this. The speedy does not have any pockets on the side either.
272376,1,Disappointed,I purchased this for my 87 year old mother for Christmas so she did not have to sit under a hard helmet dryer. The hose to this bonnet burned the back of her neck and the bonnet did not fill completely wtih air to dry the front of her hair. We have gone back to the old dryer. I would not recommend this soft bonnet hair dryer to anyone.
272431,1,Disjointed and easy to put down,"When I picked up this book, I was SO excited, as the back cover compared it the hard-to-put-down ""Into Thin Air"" and the subject seemed to be an exciting one - unfortunately it never takes off, was an utter chore to finish and does not flow well... Sorry"
272436,1,Kutless is ok,"Honestly their first CD did nothing for me. There is a few ok songs on this but if you want Christian Rock look elsewhere. Granted I've seen these guys live they put on a great show, and there really cool in person. It's still not enough to convince me this album was worth the buy."
272519,1,Useless,"Squirrels are very intelligent. If you have your feeder suspended on a pole, even if you installed the pole in the middle of nowhere, the squirrels can climb on the pole and put their weight on it. It makes the SquirrelStop spin and sends all the bird seeds to the ground. They'll eat on the ground! Birds don't like squirrels and you won't see a bird when there are 3 of them eating around the pole. In a tree? Same thing...It is completely useless because it scares the squirrels for a day or two and they finally find a way to get the seeds. Very expensive product for a deceiving result. I removed that ""3 D batteries "" spinner and I feed finches and hummingbirds now. Squirrels don't like their food. I really don't recommend that product. If you want to laugh, watch the video on the homepage of the manufacturer because you won't when you'll receive your credit card statement."
272586,1,not bad but...,"it was a nice series but throughout the series Mr. Ingalls is almost always the hero of the movie. as in the episode, the angry heart. he is the one who saves the boy again. the whole season revolves around mr. Ingalls. as for the sylvia episode, i was appalled at some of the contents. they should have warned people that it was PG-13. especially the part where the guy in black strangles her. it was horrid"
272599,1,not fresh,"I usually enjoy this product but the box I received from amazon was not fresh, so tasted more dry than usual. The date on box expires soon, so I can tell this is an old box/batch of bars. Very disappointed."
272687,1,"Bachmann Passenger Car 85, Full Dome ATSF- N scale","This is a good looking model. The only problem I had with it concerns the tight curves I have on my layout. By reason of reduced space, I choose to go to N scale.I started with Bachmanns EZ Track system in a starter set. Alas, It seems that long cars over 60 scale feet will not operate as intended (for me). The long car will topple over on curves. If you have wider radius curves, then this is a good deal."
272733,1,A second-rate product,"Like the other review, this thing takes so long to charge batteries. I'm done with rayovac after buying this."
272773,1,Plainly a disaster . . .,"All that hype, and for what. The acting stunk, the special effects not so special (okay 1 star just for that, and only that). Sorry, no recommendations here."
272812,1,And I thought guys wrote ridiculous advice books...,"on this subject. Ladies, if you want to better improve your chances in finding that right man, don't read this book. If a woman was to ever pull this stuff on me, I would stop calling her. Geeez! ""Don't talk to him for too long over the phone""?! ""Be mysterious and quite when on that first date""?! I want to be with a woman who is fun to be with. One who asks me questions and wants to know about me and my life. A man likes it when she shows him interest. Ask him out on a date every once in awhile. Read THE REAL RULES. Now that's a good book."
272841,1,DO NOT BUY THIS TV!,"I bought this TV back in in mid-Nov '04. About a month and a half later, green and pink spots began appearing all over the television. I immediately called Sony to get it fixed. TWO MONTHS LATER, THE TV IS STILL NOT FIXED. Their repair companies have come to my house twice (I had to take time off of work) and have not fixed it. When I have tried to setup new appointments, my phone calls have not been returned.Sony's customer service is absolutely HORRIBLE. I cannot even get Sony supervisor's to return my phone calls. I will never buy a Sony product again. Spare yourself some major heartache and buy a different brand."
272880,1,Save Your Money,"After hooking up our home wireless network using a Linksys WAP54G and appropriate cards, in combination with a Direcway DW6000 sattelite Internet connection (the recommended approcah by both parties) we anxiously awaited the range extender. WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT. This product, once it finally decided to set itself up after numerous attempts, crippled Internet bandwidth capability to pre dial-up speeds, locked up PC's, and required electrical power reboots after several hours on the device to restore network communication. If you use broadbandsatellite internet/e-mail with a WAP, DO NOT USE A WRE54G."
272896,1,"Good, but it could have been better...","I like these episodes, they are probably the best dubbed episodes I've seen, but I don't like the dubbing. Zoisite's death is much better in the original, for an example...."
272929,1,Unbelievable and Disappointing,"I am disappointed in this book as it had potential to be unique mystery, and I do not quite understand how it earned itself a spot on the NYT Best Sellers list. I found the heroine of the book not very credible, and in fact too down right stupid to be believed. The harrowing moments in the book are brought about not by the sharp inquisitive mind of someone who is supposed to be a decorated officer, but a bumbling ditz who I put the clues together for half way through the book. Predictable to a fault, (which makes it harder and harder to identify with the main characters), the ""whodunnit"" environment drones with all the usual suspects and a formula that's been played out in every Scooby Doo cartoon. I found myself skipping through the last chapters just to get to the end."
273047,1,Ouch,"The product looks good and appears very sturdy. However, after breaking them in for a few days around the house I wore them on vacation and developed a really nasty blister/scab on the top of my left foot. It is really sore and ugly. I did not do anything more than walk around the house and the beach. I am hopeful this won't happen again but certainly not a good first impression of the product."
273107,1,Admit it. You want to be fooled. Don't you.,"So. Because ""the local media reported more than 1,000 UFO sightings over the inundated shoreline"" following the 2011 tsunami, that deserved serious speculation that the sightings had anything to do with extraterrestrials. Fine. If I were one of this series' producers, I too would have entertained and offered those thoughts; how else would I have profited (much less have gotten my pilot episode financed at all) if I had offered more likely explanations for what may be observed during and following natural events, such as - in the case of the tsunami - the UFOs actually being the likely unprecedented number of news media and rescue team aircraft that were sent aloft to investigate the disaster sites. Plain and reasonable answers are SO boring... and unprofitable."
273129,1,just boring,"This had the potential to be a good movie, but the reliance on quite a bit sophomoric, bathroom humor really brought it down. There were long stretches that were just utterly boring. Combine this with a predictable script, it was a big disappointment. I had higher hopes from a movie with Jason Segel and Emily Blunt."
273189,1,Dog Hated It,"The pills were hard to chew for my elderly pooch and they were hard to rip open to put on the food. Once I put it on the food, the smell was so bad that he refused to eat anything and I had to throw away the entire bowl."
273227,1,wrong,"Part I received was not wwhat I ordered, not even close to what is pictured. The part I received was a terminal block."
273236,1,Very Poor Material,"This was the worst book on parenting I have ever read. When I read the author's recommendations for smacking, spanking, and tieing the door shut, that was the final straw. What generation was this written from!!?? We have enough abused children, who are living with the consequences of this from their own childhoods, without having some other author recommending further abuse (all in the name of love right?).. This book is a mixture of good and very bad.. A book taht is schizophrenic in it's approach.. highly against recommending this book."
273299,1,"""Hey Buddy, How About Inventing Yourself a Pair of Pants?""","That line is from one of the few really enjoyable episodes in this set (""Wizard of Evergreen Terrace""), predictably by John Schwartzwelder, but even he seems to be phoning it in by midway through this season (""Homer to the Max""). If season nine was the first year where the number of lazy episodes actually rivaled the quality ones, this is the first season where you could argue about the existence of *any* classics. At least last year you could point to Homer's handgun adventure, Ralph Wiggum's big break, or Homer and Marge's kinky getaway. This year you can point to the exact moment where celebrity guest voices started writing the episodes (""When You Dish Upon a Star""), and Homer taking up virtually any new profession was a sufficient story idea."
273309,1,Slow movie,The story is one of those ones that you think will get better but never does. The concept was ok but the story just moved in the wrong direction and never really go going.
273325,1,I'm about to go medieval on your...,"You should be ashamed to have shipped this item, considering the state it was in. The gauntlets were filthy, caked with dust, stained, and had scrapes. They definitely DO NOT look as presentable as the image suggests. Did someone from Medieval Times wear this to a banquet after jousting? Avoid, seriously."
273392,1,She PLAYED herself!!!!!,"Wow 10 songs do not make an album. Anyways Cassie PLAYED herself. Its ok if you dont have an amazing voice like Mariah, Whitney, Kelly, Christina, etc. But you have to use what you got & she didnt. ME & U is the only decent song on her & everything else makes u wanna fall asleep."
273469,1,Not sure about this thing yet,"At the moment I've gotta give this thing 2 stars. First off it's hard to clean. The autoseal lid has lots of nooks and crannies for liquids to get stuck in, and the shape of the tumbler is tall and slender so getting your hand/sponge inside to clean is very difficult. Also the heat retention is not very good. I've been having to ""charge it"" by filling it with boiling water and letting it heat up for about 5 minutes then emptying and adding my coffee to try to keep it hot for an hour. It is attractive and claimed to be BPA free and that's why I bought it, but functionally it's not great."
273473,1,It sucks! DON'T BUY IT,"Over priced for such an useless book, no places on internet to help you find anything for help with this book, Poor examples and not enough of them, badly written, too confusing for the normal student, you must have a doctorate degree in math to understand the material, The Bible is easier to read and understand, not for intro courses, if your professor requires the book -> drop the course! Why do you think amazon lists the other books students bought in addition to this book? You been warned!"
273554,1,Not good for the casual home user,"I started out with the Brother HL-1240 printer. After only having it for 3 months, and still being disturbed with its light printing quality, it started to print gray and black bands on the edges of the paper. It progressed with time. Customer support, after a week of waiting for a response, told me to replace the drum/toner.I did. It cost quite a bit for a new drum -- almost as much as a new printer!Foolishly, 6 months ago, I bought this HL-1440 as a replacement. BIG MISTAKE! It started doing the same thing. Turns out, the drum is the same one as used in the 1240.I'm a casual user, printing only a couple pages at a time. Perhaps this printer isn't built for it. You can find my printer on eBay..."
273608,1,"Trouble, Trouble, Trouble","I received this for a gift. The first one the plastic container broke and the smoothie would spill out when you tried to take the pitcher off. Got a replacement thinking that the first one was the problem. We have had so many spills with the second one, tired of cleaning up the mess because the parts do not want to hold together. More than one piece has fallen apart. I plan to throw away and buy an Oster brand which someone has told me is fantastic."
273617,1,Do Not Purchase This Book!!,"I purchased this book because of the high reviews, and that it was sold at Amazon. Unfortunately, this book is completely anecdotal..there is no research presented to back up her theories. While I am sure this has worked for her and I respect the work she has done with foster children, In the wrong hands or with the wrong interpretation her anecdotal advice could lead to further abuse. It's really too bad she did not partner with someone who has a background in child psychiatry or social work..he or she would have been able to help her create a far more foundational work. One review questioned why the author would need credentials, since she has ""20 years of experience."" Just doing something for twenty years does not make you an expert in the field.. researching, analyzing, reading updated literature and having a full comprehension of what and why a strategy works makes you knowledgeable. Unfortunately this book falls short of providing that."
273628,1,"Well, he is a conservative.","The book was very predictable. If you are familiar with Rush Limbaugh, Michael Savage, Laura Ingram, Glenn Beck, and all the other Conservative talk show hosts, then the content of this book should come as no surprise. Sean is a proud biased rightwinger. If it's truth you are after, look elsewhere, if you are interested in cultivating hatred this is the book for you. In the world of Sean Hannity, those who hold differing opinions are labeled as ""Liberal"". While Mr Hannity is most likely a great husband, father, etc.., go elsewhere for political analysis. What do you expect from someone who makes his living demonizing Democrats and Liberals?"
273664,1,Chicken Hawk,"I'm a Marine Corps veteran. I'm also a conservative. I supported the Iraq invasion, and I still do. I hate Michael Moore. But I get sick to my stomach when these loud mouthed talk show hosts, like Hannity, make the call for war. Hannity never served in the military. He shouldn't ask for others to put their lives on the line for their country when they didn't do the same. They don't have the right."
273674,1,Dont Waste Your Time,"Shun Humanity is a right wing puppet that spews his right-wing opinions 4 hours a day on both a radio and tv show. This is a perfect case of judging a book by its cover, dont wast your time or money. I have been put on hold several times and even hung up on trying to get a chance to question his ""facts"" on his radio show and 10s of emails that go unanswered. If you attempt to debate him and he knows that your smart enough to give him a run, he'll do anything to ignore you. Sean should be taken for what he is, purely poor entertainment, like a bad small town circus....a new meaning to the phrase, send in the clowns."
273731,1,9 of 12 soup cans badly dented,"This is delicious and nutritious soup which we ordered after ordering and being pleased with the Tomato soup. BUT 9 of the 12 cans arrived badly dented! I submitted a review on packaging with a photo of the 9 cans, thinking I would hear back promptly from someone at Amazon or at Amy's company, but so far nothing. I was not able to find another way to communicate, so perhaps this will get a reply. The outer carton was perfect and the shipment included a book which was also undamaged. The 12 cans had been shrink-wrapped on a tray and were o.k. to look at until you unwrapped them. I don't know how 9 of the 12 could be so badly dented without anyone being aware. I will be happy to e-mail a photo if someone will give me instructions. Thanks!"
273798,1,it WILL crack! not a matter of chance here.,"his and the white version of wireless headphone for ipod is being clearanced elsewhere for a good reason. I got one and it really cracks just by being flexed often enough, which is really unavoidable no matter how careful you are. It is only a matter of time. Mine cracked within a week, and yes I knew about the problem beforehand and was very careful. Unless you have a really small head (maybe the size of a softball), don't mind a cracked band or enjoy going through customer service, don't get it. it looks and sounds good otherwise, and works with computer bluetooth adaptors provided that you have software driver support for high quality bluetooth audio (a2dp). it's a pity."
273802,1,Logitech will replace if headband breaks,"The headband on these is poorly designed. Unless you have a very small head, they are uncomfortably tight. They are also fragile - in spite of being very careful with them (I wear them only at my computer), the band developed a small crack within a month of purchase, exactly in the middle of the band. 3 months later, it was cracked far enough to break the wires, and they stopped working.I called Logitech support and described my problem. They immediately offered to replace them, and by simply sending the broken ones back I will receive a new set. Since these are discontinued, Logitech is sending me a set of the Freepulse headphones (metal headband, no more cracking plastic).Logitech Support's phone number has changed from what is posted in earlier reviews, is now 646-454-3200."
273891,1,A Great Disappointment,"If you really want to discover the beauty of Piazzolla's music give this disc a miss. There is no substitute for Piazzolla's own albums - especially Tango Zero Hour, La Camorra, The Central Park Concert, etc. Piazzolla loved the guitar, and wrote a considerable amount of guitar music. It's a shame that this album doesn't do justice to Piazzolla's legacy. Guitar afficionado's should check out Baltazar Benitez' beautiful ""Music of Astor Piazzolla"" album instead. Many performers (such as Yo-Yo Ma, Gary Burton, Gidon Kremer, Pablo Zeigler, etc) have interpreted Piazzola much better than Al DiMeola."
273916,1,"Allas, I Have Found a Cure for Insomnia","I have no idea what the second half of this ""film"" is like and I don't care. The first half was so boring that I decided to use it as a sleeping tool. ~ Worked like a dream. :)"
273924,1,For Teenagers,"After reading the first 100 pages of this book, I came to the conclusion this book was written for teenagers,and young teenagers at that, and am mystified by all of the 4 and 5 star reviews."
273939,1,Not the real McCoy,"At best this is novice level. To claim that the puzzles ""will provide a sly, absorbing test for even the best most proficient experts"" is misleading in the extreme. I would rate myself as ""Competent"" and yet have not been challenged by any of the puzzles so far. I am only up to puzzle number 26, so maybe the challenges are yet to come.Black Belt Sudoku (Martial Arts Sudoku)"
273940,1,Pedestrian,"Maybe I shouldn't have expected much for $6.95. When something advances itself as ""Super-Tough,"" you'd think the hardest puzzle might take more than 5 minutes. In about an hour's work, I did the first 12 and the last 3, hoping the ones at the end might provide more of a challenge. I was wrong.The only reasonable explanation is that an editor mislabeled a White Belt Sudoku volume. The toughest puzzles still require only two or three of the basic tricks a beginner or early intermediate solver might have recently learned. If you've done more than a few dozen puzzles before opening this book, no penciling, inferences, or memory tricks will be required. Seek such stimulation elsewhere. Anything edited by Will Shortz, among others, will provide dramatically better bang for the buck."
273976,1,Anti-White Propaganda,"Anti-white propaganda (Benito Cereno, anyway). It's well constructed but that only makes it worse because of how anti-white it is. It can be seen as an early manifestation of ""Passover Syndrome."" Look it up (""passover syndrome"") for a laugh and/or a good cry because as a former white anti-white who grew up in a very anti-white household, I can tell you it is, sadly, 100% accurate."
273978,1,A voice past its peak ................................,"The main reason to avoid this album is the newer, inferior version of ""Almaz"". For the powerful original version you need ""Abstract Emotions"", which also has the excellent ""Don't Wanna Be Normal"" on it (which is not found anywhere else on cd), or a hits collection.Randy's voice was at its peak in the 70's and 80's, and had begun to decline when she recorded this. And she had not yet made the transition to small jazz ensembles that suit her maturing voice much better. I don't think there is a good vocal on this. I bought it to hear the newer version of ""Almaz"" and was disappointed in that and all the others. My advice is to buy earlier albums."
274008,1,Dissapointed,Too basic and leaves some gaps on some important detail. Takes a lot of words to say simple things. Better info available on utube
274012,1,Ho Hum,"As I read this work there was a nagging feeling in the back of my brain that the whole thing was so familiar to me. So very familiar. . . .Then it hit me! The Kin of Ata Are Waiting for You. This book is a direct repeat of the same ideas that Dorothy Bryant put forth in her work of 32 years ago. I have no doubt that Ms. Morgan is quite familiar with the earlier work.While Bryant's portrayal of the symbolic journey of the soul is told subtly and with rich symbolism, Morgan has a tendency toward redundancy and heavy-handedness.My advice? Skip this one. . .read the real deal. You won't be sorry."

274484,1,A hard to read book,"The subject of the book is extremelly interesting and the author seems to know what he is talking about. However, I cannot recommend this book. The author presents it as a divulgative book for begginners. However, beginners will hardly take any advange of it because of the deep matters involved and the unnecessarily technical language he used. He made the mistake to write a divulgative book using the same language he would do in a scientific paper. I am afraid average readers will find it hard to read and will probably not survive the introductory chapters."
274502,1,Needs improvement,"After doing a lot of research I settled to buy this unit. The ... rebate was attractive as well. Unfortunately I had to return it.Pros:1. Excellent screen and easy to use.2. Route recalculation is fast.3. Mounting bracket included along with a carry case.4. Uses non-proprietary CF cards, limited to 256MB CF usable card data although you can use larger capacity card for storageCons:1. Limited memory, 64MB built in + 256MB CF card.2. No data for Canada yet.3. In my testing it avoided major highways for in-city travel thus adding additional 20-30 mins to travel time.4. It would at times end 200ft before reaching the target.I did speak with tech support who stated an upgrade is in progress for release in Jan 04 which would include Canadian maps.I am now thinking about the Magellan Roadmate 700."
274507,1,predictable,"This is my number one most overrated movie of all time. We saw it at a pretensious artsy theater, along with an assortment of ex-hippies and wooly haired intellectuals. They all cheered, of course, when the young girl beats the boys at finding the prize in the water, then becomes the chief. The truth is that every single scene is utterly predictable, given the politically correct theme. The truth is that old people are not bad just because they love their culture. The truth is that tradition is not inherently evil. The truth is that girls are no better or worse than boys. Basically, if you hate men, this is the flick for you. But it is not good. It is not creative. There are no surprises. There is just nothing there. As I edit this, it's no surprise to find so few people liked this review. There are still plenty of hippies and politically correct so-and-so's out there."
274559,1,This story is based on a lie,"Roy and Silo, the two penguins used, as the ""inspiration"" for this bogus tale are not homosexual penguins. The moment Silo was introduced to ""Scrappy"" the female penguin he took off with her. Male Penguins often sit on eggs.Before you buy this book rent or buy the movie ""March of the Penguins"" and you will learn the truth. You can also Google the information I shared above.I think it's important that readers know the truth before they introduce their children to this awful indoctrination material.BEWARE: ""Just because it is written, doesn't make it so."""
274600,1,Check Printer Compatibility,"I bought this server after reading the generally positive reviews not realizing that it has huge compatibility issues with a lot of printers. [...]They have a compatibility list and an incompatibility list. My printers were on neither and after a long tech support process learned that the printers are not compatible. They must produce this list through the experiences of customers like myself. Check the list, because a lot of state-of-the-art printers are not compatible with this print server and thus do not work at all."
274758,1,"Want to Puke Every Time I hear ""Grey's Anatomy""","All you [guys] who have never heard of ""Grey's Anatomy"" or watched it, like yours truly, make sure that you're ready for the cheesiest crap the mankind has ever seen. This was a gift for my wife; oh boy did I make a mistake. For those out there who think that waterboarding is torture I say try watching this pathetic crap. Let's drop the waterboarding and make all those suspects watch this show just fifteen minutes at time, they'll give it all up, no problem, only not to watch this nonsense. God, every time I see or hear words ""Grey's Anatomy"" I just want to gauge my own eyes out. Before I was forced to watch the whole fifteen minutes of this crap I have had little bit of respect for that douchebag Patrick Dempsey, but having seen him in this sleazy soap I made a commitment never to watch anything that has his name on it or is in any way associated to him or any of those other [D list] losers in the show."
274768,1,Motorola H700 Bluetooth Headset,"I have tried several and found the H700 to be my best pick. I like the collapasable boom which serves two function. First, it is a very positive way to turn it on and off. Other devices require that you depress a button for a specifed period of time and wait for the tone. This fucntion was a little unreliable on some of the units I tired. Secondly, it make for a smaller package for easier storing. The over the ear attachment was comfortable and secure. With devices that plug into your ear, I could never get a good fit or feeling like it would fall out and I would loose it. Sound quality and connection speed is excellent when used with my Samsung A900M."
274886,1,look at part number it is actually a 3200 NOT a 3800,I thought i was ordering a 3800 and got a 3200. Not amd's fault. amazon sucks. the a to z gurantee thing is a joke too. In my case at least. The vendor was rude too. I think it would be a no brainer to fix this but they STILL have not fixed it.
274897,1,really wanted it to work,"Hi. It didn't work for me at all. I really, really wanted it to, but there was no benefit at all. And that high-pitch thing annoyed me too.I have Comcast cable internet and a Lynksys router."
274914,1,"OK, but not worth the money ...","I bought this car seat to match my Perego Venezia, and am extremely dissapointed. After everything I heard about how wonderful Perego merchandise is and my own experience (the Venezia is excellent, and the Prima Pappa highchair is a dream), this is quite a let down. My son was born 8lb 10oz at which point he fit quite nicely - without the newborn cushioning! Now at 4 months and almost 18 lb, he has outgrown it. He overheats in it as the seat is so narrow, and is uncomfortable after more than a half an hour, not able to recline more comfortably. I would reccomend the Graco Snugride for a first timer, and at this point we are moving into the Britax Roundabout. I'm sorry to leave my Snap'n'go this early in my sons life though simply because the car seat is just too small. Perego needs to update itself some more in its car seat department!"
274915,1,Wish it was better,We have been using this car seat for 6 weeks now and I wish I hadn't picked it out because of its name. It's not very comfy for him. I always have trouble opening the canopy without it comming off the back. The straps don't pull out easily and I always have a hard time with my sons arms. I don't have trouble getting it out/in the base. It's very light weight.
275028,1,Uncomfortable,"I used this belt after the births of my 2nd and 3rd babies. I like that it binds well, you don't want something with much stretch or it won't do what its supposed to (help your organs move back into place and help your abdominal muscles rebind). I found it too stiff though. It was very uncomfortable to sit or move around in and after just a few hours I'd have red burning skin from the edges of the velcro irritating it. When I would sit it would wrinkle up and because it was so hard the wrinkles would jab into me. I hardly wore it at all because it drove me nuts. After my first baby I just used a few yards of cheesecloth (gauze would work the same) which was very cozy but hard to put on myself and needed to be readjusted every few hours and of course was lumpy looking under clothes. Not sure what I'm going to do after my next baby is born (currently expecting). I've yet to find an affordable belt with good reviews."
275181,1,A regular CD for the 25th anniversary???????,"WTF??? In the age of high-definition recording one would think that such a historic band as Pink Floyd would warrant releasing a Special Edition for the ""anniversary edition"" and not just a regular frickin' CD. Why not an SACD or AT LEAST a DVD-Audio edition of WYWH?????????Makes my opinion of record companies slide that much lower than the sewer they are in right now."
275192,1,Disappointing performance,"After having bought a Panasonic cordless 2-line phone for my teenage daughter for about $160, I decided to save some money and get this Vtech phone for the kitchen for about half the price. I am sorry. The features work OK, but the sound quality is very disappointing. Our family of five uses the phone a lot, and my father-in-law is hard of hearing. He can't understand us from this phone."
275193,1,Yummy cinnamon flavor,The cinnamon flavor is well worth the price and the amount you receive in the shipment.
275325,1,The Social Network (Two-Disc Collector's Edition),"Great movie - lousy disc. I knew I'd want to view this movie more than once. That's why I bought it! It worked great the first time but broke up every time I tried to watch it after that. I tried three other DVD players in addition to the one I played it on the first time and each time the picture and sound broke up, stopped, and ruined the movie. The film itself is excellent, well made, and important. The extras are also very interesting. I just wish I could see the film again - the reason I bought the DVD in the first place."
275398,1,"Exciting scenes, but hard to color","I have several of the new line of Star Wars coloring books, and this one is by far the biggest disappointment. Illustrator Scott Kolins faithfully recreates scenes from the movie, but has a heavy hand with dark, thick lines and shaded areas which leave less picture to color. And while I certainly don't demand that the characters be duplicate representations of the actors who depict them, it would be nice if Padme's lips actually looked humanoid. It's not a terrible book, but for the coloring buck your money is better spent on Jesus Redondo's fabulous Episode 1 books."
275435,1,Cutoff pages,"The scanning in this edition was not well centered and one or more lines were lost from the bottom of each page, including some obviously important sentences. If this problem was fixed, it would be a very valuable resource. As it is, it's worth having, but an aggravating read.This book, in its entirety, is available as a free E-book on Google."
275472,1,hometown killer,"I've read true crime books for almost 40 years. This ranks as the worst. Recently I've noticed ""lazy writing"" in this genre, i.e., inserting pages and pages of court transcripts. We don't want to read them. It's your job to break them down for the reader. This author goes one step further; page after page of detective interviews. She doesn't even bother to summarize these interviews. I'm still laughing at Rothgeb's ""Author's Note"". If she has read dozens of true crime books over the years she certainly didn't learn anything. As for ""writing"" a book, please stop trying now and take some lessons from Ann Rule. This lady knows how to write a true crime book and so does M. William Phelps and Gregg Olsen. I can't wait to donate this to the library. Even those this book deserves it I could never destroy a book, as bad as this one is."
275490,1,"Let down, expected more","After reading reviews of Eleanor Rushing, I at least expected an entertaining book. What I found was an underdeveloped tale of an unbelievable, one-sided love affair. The plot did not flow well and rather than being amused by Eleanor's ""charm"" I was irritated by her actions that seemed to come out of nowhere. I was at least hoping for a flavorful account of New Orleans, since that is where the story takes place, but even the use of the city's institutions and landmarks detracted rather than enhanced the story."
275499,1,Imperialist Impertinence,"This book is an affront to post-colonial Indology, being a prime example of imperialist-colonial impertinence. A significant omission in the snide review of literature on Shivaji is that of the Dalit savant Babasaheb Ambedkar, most probably because the latter's civil and learned opinion would not suit the author's insidious designs to drive a wedge in the native population on the basis of caste. Ever wondered why this visionary man did not lead the Dalits to convert to either Christianity or Islam? Better if the James William Laine had first paid sufficient attention to papering over the cracks in his shoddy account, than pointing fingers at those who are not in a position to defend themselves against his 'below-the-belt' polemics."
275525,1,Blitz did not play,When I recieved the product I put in the BD playerand it would not work. I checked to see if it was the player and it was not
275526,1,Terrible Movie!!!,All I can say is this movie stinks. Statham must need money to star in this gross movie. I will research any movie Statham is in from now on. Please don't buy this movie unless you are a 1 star movie fan
275561,1,disappointed!,Over a month now and still havent received my book! Now I cant even get a reply from the seller! This is the first time in several years I have had this happen and I willnot purchas from Mass Books again!
275603,1,Sold a Lie,Was advertised as a lie to sell a one row radiator. This is totally misleading and dishonest to send a one row radiator in lieu of a real 2 row radiator.There are no ways to contact you by phone to tell you of the total bovine scat and total horse puckey this is. Way to go Amazon for allowing this.
275688,1,Destination Vegas,The title is very deceiving. The story was not put together very well. Seemed like a cut and paste project.
275721,1,Started leaking after only two and half months,"At first we thought that it had somehow gotten blown off, and rain had gotten in, but we have since had three rains and it was secured well, and the middle of the tarp still leaks.For the price and the fact that it is made of heavy material, we expected that it would last a while. Certainly longer than a few months.We missed the deadline for filing a claim by about one week!Not pleased at all.Now we will have to get a new tarp that does block the rain."
275760,1,Scratched CD,"I only gave this one star, not because of the music, but because the cd was scratched. I thought I was buying a new one.."
275777,1,ripped and are too thick,"they didn't last very long, are expensive, and don't have as much grip as other gloves I've used. I'm much happier with the $6/pair Head gloves I got from Racquetworld."
275790,1,Too many annoying bugs!!!,"I thought it's ok until the bugs start to happen very often that it just became so annoying. The game freezes alot! This doesn't happen with any of my other 50+ games, so I know my console works fine. No wonder I was able to buy this game brand new for only $5...it's garbage!"
275825,1,In the first chapter the Author says he is not a trader. I agree.,In the first chapter the author even says he is not a trader. I agree that with his statement that he is just a technical writer. This book is an interpretation of the Tradestation statistics (which you can get from Trade station). He tells you how to read the lab experiments. There is hardly anything to do with actual trading systems. If you read the title closley is reads Trading (BUILDING AND EVALUATING) Systems that Work. This is more about evaluation and less about building.
275843,1,Do not buy this for your car,"The PocketDock is much thicker than the standard plugs and it does not have a locking catch mechanism.So, if your ipod is in a case with a cut out for a standard plug, you need to remove your case to use the PocketDock.If you have not case, your iPod can easily become unplugged from the PocketDock because the plug does not lock.Lastly, the plug offers a USB LineOut, presumeably to power your iPod but in most cars there is noise from the cigarette lighter that affects the line out in the PocketDock.My solution, charge the iPod in the car and use the headphone jack line out, but only when the battery is dangerously low. In general I use the PocketDock because the sound from the other end is so, so, so, so much better.The PocketDock would be a good device, if it 1. Where thinner, 2. Had a locking mechanism, and 3. Integrated a clean power filter from Car Cigarette lighters."
275924,1,disappointed,The light output is very dim. I wanted to illuminate a flag from a few feet away. It won't illuminate at all.
275947,1,Not My Type,"I have yet to read a true Grisham thriller, but I plan to in the near future. Having said that, I have no idea how this compares, but I didn't really care for it. It's cute and has a sort of slapstick humor that I couldn't get into. I felt like I was reading a teen or children's book, and I don't like feeling so patronized when I read unless I knowingly pick up a picture book ready for the simplicity of a good message--even then, I don't usually feel patronized or ""written down to"". It's simple writing and a simple plot. It's lighthearted and thus a light read. I imagine many people would enjoy it; I just couldn't get into it. :o\"
276130,1,Be Wary of this Book,"Be warned, this book is very dark and disturbing and I'm not sure it would really do anybody any good to read. It does have its interesting points. But it is an independently published book which means sparce editing and radical content. Before you by this or any other idependently published book, you should make sure you know what you're getting into...."
276158,1,Disappointing,"This book does not always distinguish between major and minor chords. An F major chord and an F minor chord are both notated as simply ""F"" in Lullaby of Birdland, for example. A major disappointment and oversight. Some songs do distinguish, as can be seen in the ""look inside"" preview. But many do not."
276171,1,Very poor design,"The design of this case is nothing short of terrible. As all other reviewers have noted - and as all other users have no doubt experienced - the case does not securely hold the T3 and it allows the unit to slide from the case and onto the carpet - or cement - or car floor. In short, it is a piece of useless junk that an interested user should walk away from quickly.Other design faults - such as the nearly impossible way in which you must slide open the T3 to access the graffiti area - are merely irritants when compared to the fact that the case fails to fulfill its main function (that is to protect the T3)."
276187,1,**** DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! ****,"You get what you pay for was my experience! Worked for 1.5 days and then just died! A ""0"" star rating would have been more appropriate but wasn't an option."
276271,1,Don't bother ordering it. You will not get a 10 pack like stated,3 Times in a row I got the wrong item. It was suppose to be a 10 pack. Avoid this item.
276290,1,emerson Ms9923ttr,"I am being most honest in telling you that, I was dissatisfied hightly with this item. I had to return the first item because the disk player would not activate; doors would not open. When the second one come its stereo would not work. It would only play a religious station. Out of sadnest I kelt the MS9923TTR."
276342,1,If you have an IQ over 95...,"Mundane, pedestrian, intellectually insulting. These are all things that Elementary wishes it could rise to the level of. It is too clearly gimmicky to be effectively a gimmick. A disappointment on every level and an insult to any actual Holmes fans. This so far removed from the greatness of the BBC series Sherlock that I don't think it deserves to inhabit the same universe. The rest of the world must watch elementary and think it was intended for mentally challenged pre-schoolers. If your IQ is below 95, this program no doubt keeps you guessing, but then so would Sesame Street. If you like watching Lucy Liu disprove that Asian women are ageless in appearance, tune in. If you want to be entertained, buy paint...watch it dry."
276493,1,Can't believe there are good reviews,"After reading the good reviews we purchased this popper. WOW!! WAS THIS A DISAPPOINTMENT. The papers last maybe 4 times (if we're lucky) Forget using oil, spray etc of any sort. The papers are good for one time only. We have used several different brands of popcorn including the recommended one. And nothing makes a difference. We bought the unit at Wal-Mart and when we go back to buy more papers we find out they don't handle the paper for the popper. So if we want to continue to use it we have to order and pay a shipping cost. It's not worth the money or the bother. As far as the popcorn it pops fast and sometime it taste OK and sometime not. You would think they would come up with something better then paper liners or at least someone would come up with a better microwave popper. I can't believe that we are the only one that has had this problem.I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS UNIT."
276557,1,"The ""real"" Really?","Corey already came out wit the Testament. This dude cd cost 50 cent for a reason. Don't spend ya hard earned doe on vice grips. That new Cormega is out, and it go hard."
276567,1,This movie has very little to offer.,"I purchased this video quite cheaply (ex-rental), thinking that the cover looked quite nice. And it was nice, if you can't see very well, but the movie is trash. I can handle B-grade, I sometimes even enjoy a good B romp (ie. 'The Driller Killer' is a classic example of how entertaining the genre can be), but this was just bland bland bland. Incredibly dull scenes were broken up too sparsely by wholesome cheap scares and not very entertaining dream horror sequences. This movie has very little to offer. So, Don't Be Afraid of the Dark."
276606,1,Returned Stanton,"This was a mistake. It was returned, and I believe my account was reimbursed.I HOPE!>"
276669,1,Induced compulsion to upgrade software,"Why should the average user spend lots of money, which in turn corresponds to a considerable quantity of sweated work time, which in turn corresponds to time taken away from one's own interests, family and friends, just to buy a new version of an Office suite ? The same job of a new version of, say, a wordprocessor, can basically still be done by a word processor of 20 years ago. Do we really need all these improvements, all these animations, these ""cute effects"" etc. when what we need is simply write a letter or a report and spell-check it? In most cases not at all. But software houses are very good at inducing people to buy their products and let them believe the new version will make them save time: but to save that time they have to work more to pay the bill.This induced compulsion to ever upgrade one's systems is becominng an manipulative invisible taxation system. Much better to use free producs: OpenOffice.org or any other."
276716,1,"Stick to singing, Millar!!! Your writing is crapppp!","The guy cant sing anymore so he is trying his hand at blarney fiction. If he had stuck with the rovers he might have finished his career in style, but, as usual, these so-called ""superstar"" singer's egos get the best of them and they think they can forge a career, writing or otherwise, on their own merits. Willy-nilly stuff!!!"
276724,1,Sportacus Halloween Costume.,"This product is very poorly made. The costume fell apart after the second time my son wore it. Also, it was much smaller than the size ordered. Very disappointing experience (especially for the price)."
276731,1,Tropical Sprite on Creatin,"I purchased the tropical punch flavor and it immediately made my stomach churn. It felt like ""bubbly acid"" tearing up my stomach. Did anybody else feel the same way when they first took this product? I also take the cell tech whey and I love that."
276751,1,Not Happy!,"I ordered two queen comforter sets in Navy. I recieved two queen comforter sets in Hunter Green. Okay, so I thought I would exchange them, now they dont have anymore. It was their mistake and now I have to deal with the hassle of returning them. Nothing in my house will match hunter green."
276781,1,Mmmmm....,I love live blues. I love Big Jack. BUT the audio quality onalmost every other track is appalling and this CD should never have been released.
276927,1,"Old school RPG, indeed","This game is a grind-fest with practically zero story. I felt like I was playing a primitive RPG. I will admit it is one of few RPGs I have played that is truly challenging.I am not sure why this is on the DS. Besides the draw your own map idea the game makes no use of its power. There is almost no animation. You never see your characters except in a portrait in menus. Battle is represented by an enemy portrait being assaulted by a flash and either a yellow slash or maybe a lightning bolt. The rest of the game is done by exploring a 3D maze first-person style sometimes avoiding a glowing ball that represents a tougher enemy or navigating menus in town.If you like true old school gaming on the go this game is for you. If you want a more evolved game with more substance, I don't recommend this one."
276943,1,Highly Disappointed,"I have a new Mac I bought in 2010. This mic does not work well with Garage Band. If your lucky enough top even get a signal, then you can't hear any of the other tracks when recording. Then you will have to reboot your computer to hear the playback. The sounds quality is poor as well."
276984,1,Handloading for Competition Making the Target Bigger.,Zediker praises Dillion and Lee products to much and I prefer RCBS and Redding. Just a matter of opinion! He did have some things of interest but alot I already knew!
277034,1,Maybe I just didn't get it,"Had this been my first exposure to Michael Chabon's work I'm not sure I'd read any more of his work. However I have read The Yiddish Policeman's Union and The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay, so I'm willing to write this story off as a fluke.This read more like a writing exercise than an actual story. Can Chabon write a Sherlock Holmes story with out ever naming the character Sherlock Holmes? Yes, yes he can. Is there a point to not naming him Sherlock Holmes? Not that I could find.The mystery itself was okay, but nothing fantastic. I know Chabon can write good mysteries because Yiddish Policeman's Union was a very good book.This is not a book I would recommend."
277049,1,TOTALLY WORTHLESS VIDEO,I rated this video one star because that's the lowest I could give it. It's not worth discussing. I ran it through my shredder.
277061,1,misleading,"The product description clearly says quilt.Picture shows a quilt. Product is not a quilt but curtains. When seller was called they blamed Amazon. Amazon blames seller. But nobody has the quilt. Just as well after reading the reviews aboutChloe Panels, pr. 84""W x 84""Lthe seller. I got away lucky. I got something."
277074,1,Oprah-style Christianity,"I expected a Christian story in the Oprah Club to be less than supportive. What I did not expect was the disgusting and deeply offensive handling it received by Ms. Reynolds, such as in the following passage from p. 72, where I ended my reading of this book:That night I dreamed of Jesus on the cross, on a cross in the field behind the church....I dreamed I went outside in just my gown and walked up to him. He was too nearly dead to speak, but all he had in his eyes was love for me. And I walked up to the wound in his side where he'd been stuck with a sword. I put my mouth on that wound and began drinking from it, swallowing his blood. And then the wound his his side became a mouth, kissing me back, and I could slip my tongue into the wound, feel the inside of his skin with my tongue, circle it there tasting him."
277128,1,K. Carter,"Can't find refill paper anywhere--NO WHERE--non-standard size!!!!! Contacted manufacturer and they were not helpful at all. Spent hours looking on-line and in art-supply/office-supply stores--non-standard size!!!! My son loves it, but not without PAPER!"
277144,1,Ho-hum bios make one-great book run-of-the-mill,"There is a voluminous amount of sources for information on fantasy league baseball available to fans, especially with the advent of the Internet. What used to set Rotisserie League Baseball apart from the rest was the irreverent, witty bios on the players. It was the closest thing to laugh-out-loud literature one could find on the National Pastime.Alas, someone must have approached the authors and told them that the book needed to be more serious in light of previously said sources. The result is a bland concoction of stale statistics and rookie projections. Given the fact that a book needs more time to publish than does a magazine, it is rendered irrelevant.Said to say, I believe I've purchased my last edition of Rotisserie League Baseball."
277239,1,terrible design,"while it worked well for the first few weeks, it soon stopped recognizing all DVDs and now needs to be repaired. It is very poorly designed with no thought to the user. The remote controls are counter intuitive and require repeated consultation with the multiple owners manuals to try to perform simple operations. Even though I have TV guide channel on my cable the unit is unable to recognize it or get information needed for programming. Manual programming is cumbersome. This is the worst purchase I've made in a long while."
277251,1,Talk about use someone.,"Okay, when this book first came out (when Diana was alive), I would have given this book a much higher rating because it was obvious to all of us that she wanted the facts of her life to be known and had given Mister Morton permission to write it. But, I never read it back then. I read it a few months after her death and have to say, although the book was informative and obviously could not have been written without Diana's help, the only reason Morton re-released it with her handwritten notes was to make a buck. He could care less about her tramatic life. She would NEVER have allowed him to openly admit she was behind the book. By making this fact common knowledge, Morton made her look bad to her boys, her family and basically, the world! I thought James Hewitt was a bit on the low side but Morton is an even slimier lowlife in my book!"
277293,1,"Save your money, choose another book.","It seems to me that Jim Derogatis doesn't like anything or anyone. This book is a waste of time to read just like his reviews. Jim seems to show us that he knows nothing about music and just has alot of anger built up inside of him.Don't waste your money on this read, it's just useless."
277300,1,Drive failed after one week,"I just ordered this and after one week got a ""USB Device Not Recognized"" error, same as another user reported above. Drive will not work on any computer. It has a lot of nice features but reliability is crucial in a product like this."
277371,1,not sure about this one.,I bought this thermometer after reading the positive reviews on amazon. Not sure. Used it once. Felt it was hard to use and cumbersome..and baby did not like it all.so we went back to the ear thermometer. got just about the same readings as the rectal thermometer and baby is a lot more comfortable.
277381,1,Revised Title: The Delusions of Gerald Schroeder,"I was intrigued by the title, but agitated by the contents. The entire book is filled with completely preposterous assumptions and conclusions. After reading such a book, I begin to question why someone, such as Gerald Schroeder, view themselves as scientists."
277390,1,Did your soles fall off?,After 90 days of use the soles started to fall off. After four months the boots were useless!!! Just Don't!!!
277538,1,This Game Is Money Waste,Well first i was playing it.Then I found out that its terrible.I just felt like ripping it up and burning it but it wasnt safe
277588,1,Fall short of the book..... REAL short,"Anytime a movie is made from a book, the producers ""trim the fat"" to make the film more appealing to the audience. Eragon takes this to a whole new level. The mysticism of being a dragonrider is removed. The hardships of the journey across the land are removed. The politics of the book... gone! Also a good majority of the plot is stricken from the record. This film could have easily been as epic as Lord of the Rings. But apparently the director/producers wanted a film empty of plot and full of special effects. I think that a casual movie goer may enjoy this film a bit, but any fan of the book will be sorely disappointed."
277592,1,Two Thumbs Down,"Eragon- While the actors and special effects were excellent, I couldn't get over the story line. I read and liked the book. They skipped and completely left the story line in the movie so often it was hard to keep up. If I were Chris Paolini I would be furious at how they butchered my story. The dumbest part was when Saphira was first learning to fly. She took off a baby dragon and came back full grown. This book's story was destroyed in the theater. Maybe my expectations were too high as I went to see the movie looking for Lord of the Rings quality and I got a USA up all night with Joe Bob Briggs movie. Had they made this movie 3 1/2 hours long and stayed with the story line it would have rivaled Lord of the Rings. As it is we may never see Eldest in theaters."
277638,1,Dreamcast is DEAD!!!!,"Come on, man. I agree with you that dreamcast's games are a lot of fun BUT it is hard to find the games to play. Last 6 months, I still can buy the dreamcast game (NBA2K2) but now you CANNOT get any dreamcast games or systems.Sega no longer make any games for dreamcast.No new games in DC and it is dead! Don't waste your money with it."
277646,1,would you like to tell me what happen to the dream cast,dont send it to me because it was for my son for xmas and i dont think i will ever order and thing esle from you.............. thank you bridget kennard
277680,1,only buy if your prof forces you to,bad book it is not detailed enough although its pages go on for ages. it jumps from topic to topic and adds sub issues which it doesnt explain this story behind that story
277719,1,"After 100 days, it is defective","My wife has used it for 100 days without problem. Last night, it doesn't work anymore. Manu. doesn't offer warranty on this product. I have to go to local store to get another one in the mid-night. Poor experience."
277723,1,Don't waste your money,"I am sorry to say that I wasted my hard earned money on this book and then on the CCIE Written exam. This book is full of typos, omissions and just plain WRONG information.Additionally, after contacting the publisher to point out the problems AND the solutions, I was told that they couldn't verify any of my information with the authors and so they were unable to help me.Sybex got me through the MCSE and for that I'm grateful, but if this is the kind of book they are putting out now...well, I'm grateful for McGraw Hill and Prentice Hall.For the same price, buy the Bruce Caslow/Valeriy Pavlichenko book ""Cisco Certification""."
277733,1,INCREDIBLE COLOR AND DETAILS!!,"Initially 1 star, now I would like to change to 5 Stars ***** (But only after Sharp released a firmware update, late in October.)The visuals are absolutely astounding, and as they explain in the Special Feature ""007: License to Restore"" (on Dr No disc), this version is better than any other previously-released version, including the theatrical release!!"
277886,1,Fashion over substance,"This is what happens when film students make a movie about math, science, and computers without really understanding the first thing about math, science, and computers."
277899,1,Not working,"Have had this item for several months, used it several times, and now it has quit working. Could never get the encryption software to work right either.Made several calls to Netgear and finally am able to return it as faulty and they will replace...hopefully, the next units will work better."
277936,1,Incompatible with Windows XP,"Running this on Windows 98, I did have some problems, such as poor video and graphic quality, but when I upgraded to Windows XP and went to Kensington's website to find out about updated drivers, I was told that 'due to an unforseen compatability issue', the camera wouldn't work with Windows 2000 or XP. so before you buy this camera you might want to think about whether's it's worth not buying XP...or if you already have XP, don't waste your money."
278049,1,bad game,"Well, I rented this game after looking at all these great reviews. I don't understand why this game is getting such good reviews from everyone else. It's horrible. Music = bad. Control = bad. If you want to buy a real game, buy Virtual Pool 2 for your PC... it's much, much better. Skip out on this one. Or do what I did, rent it and find out for yourself."
278052,1,Not a good writer....,I wasn't able to finish this book. This author has the most irritating style. Sometimes you just have to roll your eyes as you read his purple prose.
278082,1,horrible,"Horrible Movie. Horrible acting. My daughter was very excited about receiving this movie as a present and ended up very very disappointed. Not worth purchasing at all. We never laughed, and we have a great sense of humor. Generally my daughter loves this type of movie, but would not recommend it all. again, very disappointed!!"
278153,1,I found MSDN more useful than this book,"Whenever I need help with STL, I open this book only to find that it has nothing useful on it. For those who have MSDN don't bother to buy this book."
278156,1,Cute but Sheds,"The look of this stuffed sloth is very cute and realistic but the toy sheds like none other. Just brushing your hand over its ""fur"" will cause many many fibers to come off. May be good for putting on display on a shelf, but definitely not good for a child's toy."
278173,1,No Better,"I replaced a battery that was not holding a charge like it did new. This battery I bought as ""OEM"" is no better than my old one that is worn out. My original OEM battery held a charge for two days of my usage, This ""new"" will not last a full day."
278194,1,The graphics are great. Tis a Shame the Game Won't Play,"I finally got a working (?) copy of the game after over a month of searching and waiting. It arrived Friday evening and it is now Sunday evening and the only part of the game I've actually seen is the splash screens for loading and the movie files. I've loaded, unloaded, reloaded and tweaked all weekend. I've upgraded drivers, checked my system to make sure I'm well within requirements (and am) and, as of this moment, the only part of the game that plays are the videos. I've had help from folks who actually got their games to work (and they are mystified about my problems).Save your money."
278208,1,SOE socks it to their customers once again,SOE took a great game and twice totally changed the game for the worse with no input from veteran players who had invested much in time and money.The game went from 32 to 9 professions with the professions totally changed. Last April they did the same thing and surprised uw with a totally different game. Neither was an improvement. THEY ABSOLUTELY REFUSE to listen to their customers and as a result have lost tons of players. The servers are now ghost towns.
278248,1,So dissapointed didn't worked in my machine.,It wasn't compatible with my dvd machine only for computer version. Be careful. The instructions when I bought it weren't very clear and I got confused. Must fix that.
278260,1,Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.....,"I don't want anyone else to make the mistake I did and purchase this book. It sounded funny and quirky, but this was one of the VERY few books that I gave up on reading. I made it to the fourth chapter and couldn't take anymore. The biggest problem with the book was that it sped from one idea/thought/etc. to another without any transitions or indication of a changed subject. It was like reading a stream of consciousness book without the finely crafted hallmarks of that style. Save your bucks...buy Jemima J. instead!"
278309,1,Very Messy Product,"My daughter is 10 has wanted this product for a long time and I finally got it for her for Christmas, but we were both disappointed in how messy it was! For her birthday this past year we made lip gloss out of vaseline and food flavorings and that way was a lot cheaper and less messy. The ingredients they use in the base balm are very hard to get off of everything, including the kitchen sink! I wouldn't recommend. Sorry!"
278311,1,Ooey Gooey Headache,"Yes, ditto with the other reviewer who describes the vaseline consistency. My daughter does not want to apply it to her lips, as she says it is greasy and yucky. (And she LOVES lip balm.) While making it, the stuff would not wash off my or my daughter's hands. So, we ended up just rubbing it into our skin. I know, gross. The squeeze out flavoring does not squeeze out of the pinhole-sized nozzle opening, as it is thick syrup. I had to pry off the nozzle and use a chopstick to draw it out. My daughter loved doing that with the chopstick and then mixing up the colors/flavors and later decorating the containers with stickers. So because she enjoyed a few steps in the process, I give it 2 stars instead of 1. But, it was REALLY messy and a challenge for adults, not to mention kids."
278379,1,Blade was unusable,"I saw the other reviews and bought this blade to cut travertine tile. While the blade I received was not visibly damaged, it certainly did not cut as expected. The first strange thing I noticed was that the width of the cut was substantially wider than the saw blade which is, I assume, due to the slots cut into the blade. The width of the cut, while disappointing, was not a major issue however. The real issue was that at the end of the cut, the blade consistently left an 1/8"" little knob of tile on one side. This made the blade unusable. I ended up going to a local tile supply store and found a truly continuous rim blade and replaced this blade with it."
278426,1,A Performance Which Would Make Gilbert Roll In His Grave,"It was difficult for me to enjoy this production for a few reasons.1. The actors' performances were not convincing at all. They seemed constantly conscious that they were performing a show, rather than interacting with each other. Most of the actors didn't seem to suit their roles. They exaggerated the wrong characteristics. The women whined too much.2. The updated lyrics bothered me, especially since they had Canadian references which I as an American could not enjoy. Even if I had understood the references, the delivery of them was poor.3. The sets really bothered me. Too much left to the imagination.In short, I disliked this performance."
278438,1,Crappy way to do business! Not worth a star!,"I have ordered from this company 2 times, and both times they have jacked the money from my account and then cancelled the order. Seriously, why does a great company like Amazon allow fly by nights such as this company to even be allowed to sell products on their site. I for one will think twice before I use Amazon or BZB again."
278444,1,Waste of time,"I had hopes for this book when I started it. The first chapter was promising, unfortunately it went downhill from there. I continued to read hoping that it would improve but it didn't.I won't go into a synopsis of the plot because it has been stated in many of the reviews. I will say that I felt like Cook must have gotten tired of the story because the last chapter and the epilogue were even more thrown together than the rest of the book. The epilogue left entirely too many questions unanswered and left me wanting to utter profanities at having wasted away the hours it took to read it."
278459,1,It's not worth it!,"I bought this book. If you are looking for information to help you take care of YOUR hair, this book will NOT provide it. This VERY short book is really the story of her personal journey. If you don't have the same texture of hair (or can't get the texturizer upon which the few ""styles"" that she talks about are based) then this book is decidedly unhelpful."
278469,1,Does NOT include a permanent filter.,"The technical specs for this product included a permanent filter with this product, and I was disappointed to find that one was not included with the product. I chose this coffee maker over another (slightly cheaper) model b/c I thought it included the permanent filter. Can this be fixed on the website b/c this is misleading?"
278480,1,Little coffee maker was a big disappointment,"I bought this for the office as my 12 cup coffee maker had finally broken after years of use. I had only been making half a pot and thought this little one would be ideal. The quantity was just right and I bought a permanent filter to cut down on wasteful paper filters. However, with just two or three uses a day, the lid broke after six weeks' use. Big disappointment."
278503,1,Yawwwwn,"What a bore. After 150 pages and trying my best to like it, I put it down and returned it to a friend who truly loved it. It wasn't entertaining, the characters were sappy, just not my kind of book."
278550,1,Not the best,"The product has a major flaw that can be easily remedied. The hooks have a high tendency to fall off. However, if you pinch them shut it does do well."
278588,1,ginger snaps,This movie was such a lame B movie that you could see throw the cheese a mile away. Real amateur movie making. You had to accept leaps of faith and still it wasn't scary but laughable.
278620,1,Yawner,Overly indulgent tale of a rehab girl who attends her sister's wedding and creates A LOT of non needed drama. I got through about 40 minutes before I puked all over the T.V. MY GRADE: D plus
278643,1,Not a very spectacular finale to an otherwise great story.,"I my opinion D. Brin is unable to maintain the strenghth of the two previous novel in this third. He trys to wrap up the entire ""Uplift"" story-line in the last 6 chapters of this novel. By this time he has expanded to far out to be able to bring the conclusion to a concise ending. He looses control of the story in the end and try to cover this up by bringing in delusions. He should go back and re-read ""Startide Rising"", then rewrite this last novel along those guidelines. I was very disappointed with this final novel of the trilogy. The two previous were good, but this final one is very lacking."
278691,1,0 STARS: This filth is an insult to the horror genre.,"Is it possible to give a movie NEGATIVE stars? If it was, this garbage would get a lot of them. ""Slumber Party Massacre 2"" is an insult to the horror film genre and an insult to the serious horror movie fan's intelligence. I mean, a rock & roll singer dancing all over the place killing people with a ridiculous contraption that is half drill and half guitar???? Need I even say more???? If you like this movie, you may want to seek professional help."
278783,1,Waste of Money and Waste of Time,"I wished I had read the comments about this toy before buying it last night. The instructions were terrible, the toy is flimsy, it's definitely NOT worth the money!!! This toy does not deserve a star rating! My four year old, even asked me to take it back!... Took it back and received a refund this afternoon. Again...Don't bother buying this toy!"
278796,1,Serious disappointment!!!,"I read Paranoia (also by Joseph Finder) and it was an amazing read cover to cover. I decided to read another Finder book and found this one with an average four star review. I could barely get through the book. Boring story with no surprise ending. I figured the bad guy out at the beginning and waded through the book hoping to be wrong with some amazing plot twist. There were none. I was also really tired of all the bad cliches and stereotypes surrounding the African American detective. My opinion - don't waste your money!! The Harry Bosche series is terrific as is the Mickey Haller series (different author) and definitely read Paranoia by Feller, just not THIS book."
278917,1,Terrible design,"If this is the ONLY disposable diaper you have ever used, fine. If not... you will be disappointed. Sorely disappointed. I was a cloth diaper mom and have migrated to disposable slowly using Seventh Gen (before the new Clear version), Earth's Best, Nature, g, etc... Why are THESE eco diapers so much worse than any other?1) The do not move with baby. At all. It's like a dense stiff fiber board wrapped between the legs of your munchkin. Its the same width all along.2) They leak through whatever ""outer"" material is on there. Like a cloth diaper you need a cover for overnight.3) When they are wet... its MORE dense, stiff and immovable. I little brick in my babe's pants.Yucky. I am surprised this brand has been around as long as it has."
278932,1,not for me,gave me headaches. first i didn't know why i was getting them and then my dad who was using it as well started complaining..so i made the connection. stopped taking it and the headaches stopped. Give it a try I guess
279002,1,"Some compellingly raw poetry, occasionally competent art.","This book is an interesting first effort (as far as I know it is O'Barr's first) that has it's moments, but overall I was unimpressed by this work. I think the main reason this work hits as hard as it does is not due to the skill of O'Barr (especially the art) but the raw emotion that assails you throughout. However, I don't feel this is due to the skill of the author (no disrepect to O'Barr) but the sheer power of his experience. After reading it the first time and dealing with the reality of the authors experience that inspired this work, I have to say the book really is not that well done. There is some nice poetry (although I'm sure Garth Ennis would not agree) but I feel the art is definitely sub-standard-although it has its moments. I can think of many other titles worthy of 5 stars."
279015,1,wow....,"i looked at the date on this mother. it says 2002. thats back when it was still okay to suck at guitar. its a fun read if you like remembering that era. some of these bands i've forgotten about actually. and at the drive ib isn't nu metal. nor is tool or primus. but what ever. it glorifies a fallen genre. but like i said, it was done in 02. if it were written a few years later it would have turned out differently..."
279110,1,Sounds good but don't waste your money,I purchased this scale because I have a water retention problem and I thought this scale would help me control it. However while I could get weighed on this scale I was unable to obtain any of the other information. The instructions were unclear but even trying to use it several different ways it didn't work.
279113,1,Worse than useless,This product is a joke. I have to measure 15 or 20 times to get any reading other than weight and an error message (yes I read the instructions and am doing it correctly). Over those 15 or 20 attempts the weight measurement returned varies wildly. You are better off with a $6 old-school scale.
279130,1,Do Not Waste Your Time or Money On This Book !,"My Instructor told me not to waste my $$$ on this book. The first two or three chapters are acceptable, yet the remainder of the book is very poor. It has the simple basic strikes and counters that all ""How To"" books of Karate manuals have.It is not the Way of Self Defense as the title would attempt to allude one."
279151,1,Terrible!!!!!!,We bought this toy for Christmas and we are very disappointed.Only my husband can pull the string so the girl will fly and when he does it the doll goes right in his or my daughter's eyes witch is so painful. Dangerous toy !!!!
279170,1,Waste of time...,"No offense to the authors. I'm sure their intentions were good.This book is dry as sand in your mouth and not specific enough to make any sort of difference to anyone.My law school told me this was 'mandatory' and made sure that we purchased copies before orientation, specifically to learn about case briefing. Unfortunately, this book talks about case briefing in theory, but doesn't bother with teaching the student to brief or show examples of what a case brief looks like.For a vague, general view of law school, this book does a decent enough job, assuming you have the patience, but if you want a book with tips and techniques, this isn't it. Law School Confidential is a much easier read and provides far more information in a far more organized and efficient way."
279187,1,"Mirror, Mirror",Mirror MirrorI didn't care for the changes that Hollywood made to the basic tale ofSnow White. I didn't believe that it enhanced it one bit.
279249,1,Lame,"Ok from reading the other reviews I had low expectations but this movie was even worse than I anticipated, there are many other movies I would have been better off wasting the few dollars on."
279342,1,"Bad, bad, bad",This came to me with missing parts and no action was taken as it was out of the window of 30days! I was not able to unpack this due to moving.. good job I had an old hoover mate to switch out parts.. this company is very bad and I hope no one else will get into this situation.. I was told on the phone to get my part from a supplier.. they shouldnt be in business!!!!
279345,1,great idea but bearings are cheap,i have had 3 of these and each time the bearings inside went and it always happened with in 2 years.i am looking for one that can last longer now.also the other thing is the brushes dont reach the grout if your grout is a little deep.it will only get the top of the tile.
279381,1,Nothing Here To Read,"I bought this book because Too Hot To Sleep was suppose to be funny. I stopped at page 100.No action after the dog was brought to ER. Everything kind of stalled. No other new things happen of interest. No development in the direction of the boyfriend, Rob. He is just out there someplace. This could have been very much alive with the three of them all mixed up together. The poor girl could have been mixed up so bad, that you would at least get a laugh, but Bond misses this many times.I work with men all day long. If any man acted like this cop at my shop, he would be thought of as a whimp, and picked on. No kidding, this guy acts like a girl.Men don't put up with women like this girl treated the cop either. I guess that's why it's fiction?Waste of money. Nothing here to read."
279401,1,more of the same old same old,"Yet another book from a prolific person who just can't stop using characters not her own. This is uber fiction, in other words, characters - Xena and Gabrielle - who are trademarked and copyrighted to someone else. After this many books, you'd think this writer would want to develop her own original characters, but no, it's just more of the same. Unfortunately, I can't give this the zero star rating it so richly deserves."
279404,1,Cassie,Lots of typos in the text and some of the pictures show the wrong patient position. I would not recommend this book!
279466,1,Como pueden llamarla la primera feminista?,"Le estoy dando una estrella a este libro porque no puedo darle menos. Sinceramente senti pena ajena al leer el poco respeto y autoestima que tenia esta mujer para ella misma. El estilo ni siquiera es interesante, la lectura francamente se me hizo aburrida y ni siquiera pude terminar de leerlo. Mas que publicar su diario, Anais Nin lo que necesitaba era terapia urgente."
279473,1,Not very good,I bought these from a large discount retailer. I have been using a double edge razor for many years now and I've yet to get a decent shave after more than a month of shaving using these blades. My recommendation is to try another brand.
279624,1,Sunbeam Heritage series 12 speed Stand Mixer Legacy Edition,"My mixer is a Sunbeam Heritage series, Legacy Edition, color black 450 watt and I was mixing frosting and one of the beaters stoped working. My Dad took it apart wich was pritty hard to do so, and found that the gears are stripped and made of cheap plastic. For whatever reason, Sunbeam must have decided to cut on costs and used a plastic gear to transfer power to the beater. I had my Sunbeam for two years and the plastic gear decided to break. End of mixer. You cannot find a replacement part anywhere. Iam kind of mad because the motor and the mixing bowl workes perfectly its almost new it has not even a scratch on it. I tought I was buying a good quality mixer wish was gonna last for a long time. Ohh well what a shame... money wasted. I guess my next mixer is gonna be a KitchenAid."
279635,1,Caution,"We are great fans of Thomas Kinkade's art, and his Christian testimony. In purchasing this movie we were hopeful of a warm, family movie. We liked the actors and found in the end it had some positive things...family and friends supporting and encouraging one another. However, we felt there were things that would keep us from showing it to children or recommending it to others. Some low and bulging necklines, a father encouraging immorality in his sons by magazines, comments, and lifestyle; an openly immoral young woman playing Mary in the Christmas program. It is true that there are all kinds of people in life, and that there is good in everyone. Our expeience is that it is actually the man that is relating properly to his Lord that has the strength of character to find the right course in life and impact others for good. This testimony, which we believe is true of Mr. Kinkade's life, is not made evident in this movie."
279636,1,NOT CHRISTIAN AT ALL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!`,I agree that this movie is lousy and is not a good family Christian Christmas movie at all and what I expected it to be.To use that horrible woman to play Mary in the play was so terrible.All she wanted to do was to show off her body to men-even the preacher smiled big as she raised her dress in church.I will never get anything else made by Thomas Kinkade.He should be ashamed at this trash.There is more I could say but it is all bad as that is how the movie is and it shows no one changing for the better.If you want a family film do not buy this one!!!!!!I wasted my money.
279693,1,THIS HAS THE WRONG TRACKS ON IT FOR MP3 ALBUM,"THIS HAS THE WRONG TRACKS ON IT -MP3 downloads onlybe aware that track ten, Go Skate! (Possessed To Skate '97), is not the right one. It's ""Possessed"" instead.So I'm out one song from this great album. It's a fun redo of the classic track with the heavy Trujillo bassline throwing it's weight around on it.So far, I have no idea how this can get remedied, but be aware that this is not the correct version of the album. Buy the CD I guess.Otherwise five stars for it."
279776,1,The Light of Jesus,"This book was absolutely horrible.Thinly veiled, religious biases; anti-Middle-Eastern sentiments; sexism; the list goes on ad nauseam.I was greatly disappointed with this book. Is there a soap box of the Western Christian Right that this author did not stand on?She didn't even do it well. Unoriginal plot, a severe lack of character development, horrible, underdeveloped reasonings for absolutely everything the main characters do.The people whom rated this 5 stars only did so because they enjoy reading about Jesus even when they're taking a break from the Bible.Disgusting."
279843,1,post-humous,"Elvis is back from the grave, his vocal chords are decayed and there's dirt stuck in his ears."
279845,1,Bring Back Earl,"I love My Name is Earl, but I can't stand this show. Earl was heartfelt. This show is too contrived, like a white trash version of ""Malcolm in the Middle"", another show which I cannot stand."
279904,1,Miss Melville Rides a Tiger,"Ms. Smith has a wonderful way with words: ""At first sight most of the people there seemed unfamiliar, then she picked out a few aged and bewildered-looking Rundles who had apparently been hauled out of their retreats, dusted off, and propped up here and there among the furniture, holding teacups in their shaky hands and smiling vacantly."" (page 76) The first third of the book was totally boring and not to my liking then when I was ready to just close it, put back in my give away pile, the story got good and ended great! It is a well written book, good literature but very old fashioned!"
279918,1,"Unreliable TV, Poor customer service","The convergence board in my TV set died a few months after the 1-year limited manufacturer's warranty. Upon reviewing the circuit, heatsinks attached to the convergence ICs (STK392-010) are just too small to dissipate insane heat generated by those two convergence chips. Plus, not-so-heat-resisting resistors all around those metal heatsinks also caused some of the resistors failures.After contacting Samsung, all I got was unfriendly customer support representatives with attitude (doing whatever she could do to get me off the phone) and runaround answers. I'm more than certain this model has been discontinued and you can no longer purchase one from retailers but if you ever encounter with one, don't get tempted. Walk away."
279930,1,cheated,"I ordered 1-black & 1-tan envelope, I got the black one ten days later with 2 day air. The tan never arrived,so I emailed 4 times no response , that was 2 months ago on 1/16/2009 the order was paid. the envelope was nice but I at least expect a refund or the product or notice of back order. The product is still being offered by seattle gift shop as available."
279948,1,WARNING!! Don't be fooled! This isn't quiet!!,"Ok I just got this loud little fan, the install was easy and that was it! I should have listened what others have said about the noise level.I was expecting a lot about the noise because in the advert, it says bloody 'whisper quiet'!!!!!!!!!! for mother of airs. Seriously, who whispers like this loud? I can't even hear my own voice when I turn on the full speed.It has 2 speed control buttons, low speed is just acceptable if you place it close to you but then the noise level is not quiet at all. And you don't even wanna touch the button of high speed or I just wanna call it Tsunami. It's so bloody loud whisper that if my window was opened, my neighbours can hear that i turned on the fan.Pleeeeeease consider this carefully when you buy and don't be fooled by the word 'Whisper Quiet'. Cuz that whisper could make you a deaf."
280026,1,This plane is absolutely junk,This plane is absolutely junk. It has cheap materials and it won't fly. Don't waste your money on buying this.
280104,1,"So, So","I think the best title for this book should be ""Making Music With Your Computer BUT Let's Learn about Music Theory and Do The Music in a Later Edition."" This book is more about theory than programming music on your computer. The theory in this book assumes you know how to read music. It does not instruct those without a clue, but I was lucky to have already known how to read music. If you're looking for a book to give you some insight to write commercial music, this isn't the book. If you're looking for ideas on composing for an orchestra, buy it.So, what's good about the book? There are a few chapters on mastering, MIDI, and sound synthesis. They aren't highly detailed, but it will give you a clue to what those topics are about."
280151,1,FITS LIKE A DIAPER!,"These fit horribly. Unless you're on steroids and have huge muscles and a huge rear, these are going to look like a big saggy diaper."
280173,1,NOT A GOOD CHOICE OF SONG,"WHILE JESSICA SIMPSON IS AN AMAZING SINGER, THIS SONG IS SUNG VERY WELL , IT JUST DOES NOT SUIT WHO SHE IS . IT SUITS ROBBIE WILLIAMS BETTER ."
280208,1,Piece of crap.,My mother owns this. It's a piece of crap. The only way you can hear anything is if you have everything set to max volume. And even then it's not even very loud. Waste of money. Made of super cheap plastic. It only looks like metal. Don't waste your money.
280239,1,New and improved with bonus prize inside...(not really),"Nothing new here-- only the ever-grinding gears of Dyer's perpetual marketing machine; he had some original things to say at one time, but at this point they've all been said. Just as well to re-read some of his old stuff than to waste good money and valuable time on the same content with a new cover."
280248,1,This product is worthless.,"The board is WAY too flimsy and lightweight; you end up chasing it across the counter because the ""non-skid"" feet slip all over the place. Additionally, the shipping costs are about twice what is stated, in terms of weight category. I ended up paying $20.25 for an inadequate $6.80 purchase."
280299,1,More Alpha Trash,"At least Alpha Video appears to be consistent. I've purchased two of them, and both are unwatchable. This movie would probably be a B or B+ if you could make out what the characters are saying or not be bothered incessantly by skipped dialogue and a horribe DVD picture transfer.Even the gorgeous Ann Sheridan doesn't look so hot in this movie. It may be that God-awful hair style. Or else it's just the D-- picture quality.Next DVD you buy - check to be certain its not an Alpha which, I believe, is Greek for awful."
280371,1,It could be worse,"I suppose if one knows nothing about Tull, this comprehensive overview could be very useful. If, however, you're a fan and already know the basic history, there is much less here than one might want. First, much is recycled from other sources. Second, the desciptions of the albums are far too subjective. Descriptive analysis of the music would have been worthwhile, but Nollen's opinions (and even worse, recycled reviews from Rolling Stone and the like) are unnecessary. Does anyone really care whether or not Nollen likes a particular album? A true history of the band, something that would detail the creation of the various songs, their instrumentation and studio techniques, how they relate to Ian Anderson's life, the details of their tours with descriptions of the staging, etc., i.e., something that does for Tull what ""The Last Gang In Town"" did for The Clash has, sadly, yet to be written."
280376,1,hmmm,"Well, Hits of the Year is one of the finest Squeeze singles and this CD holds a soft spot in my heart since, I think, it's the product of their first reunion back around '84-'85 or so. I'll admit now that I've listened to it in its entirety maybe twice and not recently. If I'd loved it, I would know that now as I write this and I don't. But like anything else, I'll give it another shot sometime soon, see if it's aged any better than the first reviewer above believes.First rate punny CD cover though."
280508,1,NOT ALL FOR ZIRE 71,"Palm Zire 71 Owner: Important Note, July 2004. Revision 2.1 of this card or newer, whose package is marked as compatible with the Zire 71, is required if you wish to use this card with the Zire 71. The older revsion card for Pocket PC only will not work due to a hardware design change. The new card is manufacturer's part #SDWSDB-000-A10M."
280589,1,Not standard size,"I'm sorry I bought this jigger. I should have read the product description a little more carefully, because I didn't realize that although it claims to be a jigger it only measures out 1 1/4 oz. Standard jiggers are 1 1/2 oz. I replaced it with a OXO, which is good but has to be filled to the brim to get the full 1 1/2 oz. But it also has markings for 1/2 oz and 1 oz. So it's not perfect, but better."
280717,1,don't buy,"Similar to other 1-star reviews ... this is a very cheaply made part. The 3.5mm jack doesn't hold the male plug. Either it is missing the internal spring clip, or it is simply too big. Unusable."
280736,1,Buy A Cassette Adapter Instead If You Have a Cassette Deck,"Stay away from this product. Based on my experience and that of other reviewers, it's hard to believe that this product was subjected to any realistic tests before they sold it. I bought two of these - one for my son and one for me. Unless I reach behind the seat of my two seater and balance it against the rear window, I get virtually no reception at all. Even then, I receive repeated static which interrupts the music. When I was out of the LA area in the Nevada desert, the sound was still annoying at best. This product is simply awful. If I could, I would give it zero stars. Fortunately, my car has a cassette deck too, so I bought a $20 cassette adapter from Monster - it works great."
280800,1,poorly made,"This was very disappointing to my daughter who was so excited to put together a model she could affort with some of her money. It is plastic, all white and the stubs on pieces removed from the plastic on which they arrive, stuck so it is nearly impossible to construct. Very poor."
280822,1,worst Marvel game ever,"If you are looking for a great Marvel game by Activison try Spiderman. This game is terrible. I rented this game, played through it, and I must say the plot and the character voices are amazing, but if it is gameplay you are looking for go somewhere else. In the comics and the movies, Wolverine has the power to heel from damage inflicted from the enemy, but in the game you have to go around looking for health bars. Automatic heeling would great, and very helpful in this game.Bottom line:Not worth renting, much less buying!"
280831,1,TERRIBLE MODEL,THIS MODEL AIRCRAFT IS INCOMPLETE IT IS MISSING THE WINDSCEEN AND CANOPY MY MOM IS GOING TO RETURN IT. I WAS GOING TO PRESENT THIS MODEL IN A COUNTY FAIR BUT NOW I CAN NOT.
280850,1,Hosa GRA101 RCA Female to RCA Female Coupler,"I purchased this item and one of two adapters clearly had a manufacturing defect. It was nearly impossible to plug an RCA cable into it, and once I finally could, you could literally see the scratches on my cable. I definitely do not recommend buying this specific adapter since they are not reliably made.Hosa GRA101 RCA Female to RCA Female Coupler"
280899,1,Bad Quality! Doesn't hold the wind!,"It is a good design only if the metal is strong enough to hold the wind. The mild wind knocked down the net, and the metal is so weak and twisted, I am never able to put it back again. The metal has the broken sign. Don't buy it. It doesn't hold the wind. I returned it."
280956,1,MARINE AQUARIUM 2.5 UNABLE TO MAKE IT WORK AND SELLER UNWILLING TO COMPENSATE PURCHASER,"I PURCHASED MARINE AQUARIUM 2.5 AND TRIED REPEATEDLY AND UNSUCCESSFULLY TO DOWNLOAD IT. I SENT 2 EMAILS TO THE SELLER AND HE REPLIED THAT HE WAS NOT THE MANUFACTURER AND HAD NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE QUALITY OF THE PRODUCT.INCIDENTALLY I TRIED TO MAKE USE OF ASSISTANCE AT THE WEBSITE OF NEW MEDIA MERCHANT AND WAS UNABLE TO GET ASSISTANCE, EVEN THOUGH THEY INDICATED THAT ASSISTANCE WAS AVAILABLE.THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH AN AMAZON PURCHASE AND I HAVE MADE QUITE A FEW. IF THIS PROBLEM IS NOT RESOLVED I DOUBT THAT I WILL USE AMAZON AGAIN.JACK ROVICS, PhD"
280963,1,DON'T BUY THIS CD,"I happen to be a huge George Fan, and I would NEVER buy this CD. This is George and Universal Music acting like ""The Who"", and releasing YET ANOTHER greatest hits package (I think they are up to a DOZEN) You could actually SAVE money, by buying the boxed set, and 50 Strait Hits (So you can get music within the past 10 years), instead of this CD and the Very Best Of Strait (1998-1993).Between this CD, 1998-1993, ""50 Strait Hits"", and ""The Platinum Collection"", GS has released FOUR greatest hits packages in LESS then a year, enough is enough. I am a GS completist, who has bought EVERY GS non-greatest hits package (I have the boxed set ""50 Strait Hits"", and ""Latest Greatest Straitest Hits"" (For ""The Best Day and ""Murder On Music Row"")), so I know this man's music. I also know when they want to rip fans off, and that is what they are trying to do. DON""T let them get away with it, and do not buy anymore ""New"" GS CDs until we get some BRAND NEW MUSIC."
280993,1,Did nothing to help me,"Not only did these make my shoes terribly uncomfortable, but they did nothing to help my problem (plantar fasciitis). At least I was only out $25, but it was a complete waste of that $25 to have them gathering dust in a drawer."
281015,1,so far no good,My son just got this game as a gift - he is 5 years old. The game takes a long time to load. Very long time where we thought the disc was dirty or something else was wrong. I found a usenet post that discusses the same problem. I can't see my son having the patience for this.
281124,1,NO SHINE IN THIS DUD,"One of the very worst gay movies I have ever seen.You know it will get worse when the credits are out of focus,the acting non-existant,no story,an affair between a man and a woman crops up on occassions-why?It failed to mean anything to me. Dreadful cinematography on numerous occassions incl over and under exposure and out of focus scenes.This film is so devoid of everything that should make a good film.The underground car park scene and some of the bedrom scenes between the male and female,have a dreadful red glow as if someone turned on a huge red light-resulting in the very worst in cinematography I have ever seen.This is a film which has nothing going for it."
281210,1,nothing that cannot be found free on the internet,I bought this book in order to understand more about the connection between business and astrology after several years of learning astrology but I did not find it in this book.
281234,1,Extremely outdated!,"I thought this book was totally different than it was. It's absolutely outdated. No nice pictures as I hoped, old outlook. Wish I didn't buy it."
281301,1,Disappointed,"The motor/blower unit is actually quite good, but the air tube is not long enough. Where the tube meets the soft bonnet is a very weak area and when heated up to highest temperature becomes weaker. The bonnet does not provide even heat to entire head. If they could perfect the air tube and bonnet, this unit would be worth the price. It's so hard to find a good soft bonnet hair dryer! This would be perfect for traveling if it just did what it was supposed to do."
281412,1,Burned out,I bought two of these poppers in the last 4 years. The heating element burned out on each of them. The popper makes great popcorn but the planned demise built into these poppers is not worth the cost.Madfro
281439,1,Totally NOT GREAT!!!,"I bought this CD thinking that I was getting the orignal version of ""Do they know its Christmas?"". Not only was it a remake, but a very poor one!!! I think the entire CD stinks, save your money!!"
281485,1,DANGEROUS INSTRUCTIONS!!!!!,I used a library copy to make my very first batch of soap. This book should be RECALLED!! It states to add water to the lye AND I DID! VERY DANGEROUS! I thank GOD it did not explode in my face!! Now I know that you should ALWAYS ADD LYE TO THE WATER!!! Still thanking God I didnt get burned!! Please read the other comments warning about this book. Really a soap makers nightmare!
281510,1,Serious Product Flaws DCS-950G,"After reading mostly bad reviews, I took a chance and bought this product. True to the majority of reviews, the camera is subject to locking up regulary. When it worked, the picture quality was good. Tried to work with DLINK and they were no help. They acted as they were not aware of this problem, but they must be since everyone returns these camera's. I saw similiar reviews for their other models as well. My guess is they have a serious firmware problem they need to fix. With so many models to choose from, you would think they have enough invested in this product line to fix the software. I am going to try the ""4xem Corp. IPCAMWLPTG 4XEM Wlptg 802.11G Wireless"""
281531,1,Did not get the item shown!,"The model is right, the box was right, the Outback Chair brand was right, and the included directions do say ""C Frame"".However I did NOT get the item pictured, so I uploaded some of my own to share. My chair as assembled was 73"" wide, 60"" deep, and 94"" tall!! I think this frame takes up more space than my car AND IT IS TOO TALL TO FIT INDOORS!!!So now I have $380 worth of scrap steel in my living room since I bought TWO!! ""Return"" shipping on top of the previous shipping charge would make this a ridiculous loss even if I managed to return them.I have no idea how this ""right box/wrong item"" could have happened. Outback Chair doesn't show anything like this on their site. No word back yet from the seller/Amazon on how to correct this situation yet."
281532,1,This is not what CorningWare used to be,"I bought a CorningWare 2 1/2 quart casserole dish at K-mart several years ago, and what I received from Amazon today is not at all the same thing (even though it has the same name and looks somewhat similar). The old dish is the true CorningWare material (glass-based), a bright white, and made in the USA. The new dish is stoneware, off-white, and made in China. CorningWare kept the name but has gone cheap on quality, which is shameful. Now I see another reviewer saying the same thing... wish I would have read it before ordering!! I should have bought the no-brand cheapie on sale at Wal-mart instead of this piece of junk."
281560,1,Defective Krups kettle,"We got this kettle as a gift on Christmas. Nice,light and excellent looking kettle but the on/off switch is bad design. The switch keeps turning off so you have to hold it down for about 2 minutes and then it works. I am going to throw it away and get another brand."
281561,1,update 3x leaking at bottom,"i had to return item 3 x within the year warranty , for a leak appearing at the bottom of the handle , now i'm with out warranty , as this will not come with the replacement , . also count on being without your kettle for about 3 wks if you have to return it ,KRUPS , terrible customer satisfaction , for a premium european brand , i bought it mostly for the design , neverrmind as krups doesn't care about malfunctioning products , they happily are still selling them .Krups Sucksupdate the 3 one is now leaking a little after 1 year , I just can't believe these are still out there for sale on amazon its criminal.Krups another corporation who doesn't care about there customers"
281594,1,Hoped For More,"While I appreciate the effort put into this book, it missed the mark. As the market is saturated with so many different books on this much discussed topic, I was hoping a blogger would come through with something refreshing and innovative. Unfortunately I found the writing style cumbersome at best, and the material was nothing noteworthy."
281748,1,A Feeble Entry In A Familiar Series...,"This one had promise - the female lead is a looker, better than those cast in similiar productions, but her acting was abominable, which I could have easily overlooked IF the movie delivered the goods, which it didn`t. It wasn`t your typical WIP flick,(which would`ve been a good thing to break the mold), but it wasn`t much of anything else either. The box appeared to be an updating of the 'Female Prisoner Scorpion' series, but no such luck. Don`t bother with this one, read my reviews of other similiar flix and pick one you won`t be let down by. Lord knows there are enough of them out there..."
281776,1,Don't waste your money if you want buy C330,"I have bought a GPS StreetPilot C330 navigator which it have provided a adapter in the box. Anyway, according to their suggestion, I bought this adapter at the same time. I found it can not connect with my navigator. So this adapter is useless. if you want to buy C330, do not waste your money on it."
281804,1,50 bucks for a bonus track? uh-huh.......,"well i own the original Make A Sound and its an amazing album...but this...maybe not so much. i mean, if u ppl really really REALLY wanna spend all that extra hand earned money on one bonus track whereas you can probably take that money and buy one or two more cds for your buck, go for it...otherwise, take my advise and ditch the bonus track...its not worth ur money"
281879,1,Buying this stroller could be tragic,"DON'T BUY THIS STROLLER if you are over 5'2 inches !! Maybe this a great stroller... but earlier today it gave me the scare of my life !!!When you are walking, if you are too tall (I am 5'5)your feet bump the wheels of the stroller. It doesn't seem like a huge problem until the wheels make you trip up and fall....which happened to me today. I watched in horror as I fell, the stroller kept moving toward the street going over the curb. Thank god it stopped right at the edge of the road and we live on a pretty quiet street. It's just not worth the chance you might take by buying this.It might be great if you are shorter but as for me...I will never, ever use it again."
281900,1,Text book trys to be comprehensive,"Far from comprehensive when tacking such a huge topic it is hard to be of course ever being coverd by one book. The omissions here are pretty glaring and for the cost of the book, I simply cannot recommend it. What it does cover is well done but you can obtain the information from other books for far less money."
281920,1,complete crap!!!!,i opened the package and put a battery in and only half of the display came on..... broked right out of the package DO NOT BUY!!!! not even worth my time and money to try and send it back!!!
281944,1,The commercial-pop side of Wetton,"This anthology is the pop, commercial, ballad type. I do not like this sugary side of wetton. There is another compilation which is 10 times better: 'King's Road', that includes progressive music from his era with K Crimson, UK, and some solo songs. This one is really a great intro to the 70's great wetton."
282031,1,Waste of money.,"Two stars for the excellent build quality. That is it. Took some pictures with and without the filter to compare and there is no polarization. The way it reduces glare is by reducing the incoming light by 1 to 2 stops. Took some pictures of a table that has furniture polish on it in sunlight to see if the CPL can polarize the reflected light and it failed. Worse was pictures taken with this filter has a bluish cast to them. This is how this filter achieves the ""blue"" skies that everyone raves about. Great! Except now I have to photoshop everything else in the picture to remove the bluish tint. This filter is basically an overpriced blue filter."
282032,1,"Dear Ghod, why?","I love independent films. I love films that are made with passion.This is made with ego. From someone who probably should have let the script age a bit first. And gone through a few rewrites. And been edited by someone who hadn't taken a sleeping potion.Really, unless you are looking for a soporific experience, give it a pass."
282039,1,LA TRAYECTORIA 2,I SILL NOT RECEIVING THE CD BACK. I DID PAY FOR THIS CD AND I BEEN SEND THE WRONG CD BUT I STIL WAITING SO PLEASE IF IS ANY WAY THE I CAN GET MY MONEY BACK OR THE CORRECT CD. THANKS
282046,1,Wrong description,"This circular polarizer filter IS NOT an anti-reflective coated filter. The title of the product says otherwise. It is also quite heavy and has a very thick profile. A Hoya with the same ""entry"" characteristics is half the price. Also surprised to see smudges on the glass but the case was sealed. Very disappointed."
282047,1,NEVER RECEIVED THE TOY...!!!,We never received the bear. The seller never answered my numerous emails. I want them removed from Amazon.com. They should be arrested.I will never buy from Amazon again.
282057,1,Just not very good,"People love this book, looking at the other reviews! I wanted to, but just couldn't. The plot, the dialogue, the characterizations... all seemed shallow and not compelling at all. I thought the quality of the writing itself was actually quite bad."
282151,1,Intellectual Self-Indulgence,"This book starts out by saying that it would cover COM at its most basic, no class libraries or macros to get in your way. That sounded like an absolutely wonderful idea.But what happened was that instead of explaining how the real world ATL COM macros worked, Don Box spent the entire book explaining how his own personal macros worked. That was not what I signed up for.Did I learn something? Yes, but I sure had to wade through a lot of Don Box's macros to see how COM worked."
282158,1,Another Bust for Fred Pohl,"It is extemely difficult to select stories from five of the greatest SF writers (add Clarke and Asimov and you have the top seven) of the 20th century to give the whole volume a negative, downbeat tone, but Fred Pohl has managed it. If you like your stories upbeat and hopeful for the human race (in the editorial fashion of John Campbell) this book is a definite ""save your money."" I have been reading these authors since the 1950s, and I can't imagine a worse set of choices."
282205,1,poor tape player,I have bought two Sony boomboxes in a year and a half (I listen to books on CD/tape). The tape player has given out on both of them within months of buying it.
282263,1,Oh please...,"A few good ideas that would be obvious to most people with a pulse. I think if it would have so much better if the author had focused on 202 really interesting things to do on dates. Instead it's just a list of things that anyone could do, on a date or not. (Frankly, some of these ideas should not be trotted out early in the dating cycle... ""talk about what you think about death...???"") This isn't a book - it's the result of a brainstorm session without an editor.If you want to break out of a rut, I'd suggest picking up a local alternative weekly or newspaper's Friday section and cruising through the stuff to do section. Or peruse the list of classes to a nearby Learning Annex or community college or even thumbing through the yellow pages under 'instruction,' 'restaurants' and so on, you'll find enough ideas to get you going.If my husband and I ever get to the point that we have to refer to this book, it's probably time for marital counseling."
282293,1,"Great book for book club discussion, not great literature.","Our women's book club overall found the book to be too ""chatty"" and very difficult to follow, especially when discussing her myriad family and friends. What was interesting, however, is that this book engendered a very lively discussion on Iran, the role of women, and Western bias in understanding different cultures. Daughter of Persia was mentioned as a better book to read. In all, we felt this was not a great book, but was a good discussion book for a book club."
282318,1,Not one good thing about this bra.,"This bra is terrible. The straps are ridiculously long (twice the length of any other bra I own when I have them adjusted to the longest point). There are extra ""underwires"" on the sides of cups. Imagine parentheses around your nipples. Its hideous and uncomfortable.And if you are considering taking the straps off their are 2 little tabs that stick out from the top if the bra."
282374,1,Dont Buy This,Very poor qualityThe dolly for under the track bent the 1st time I used itMetal is way to thin
282386,1,These PG models from America has something missing,"If you are an experienced modeler then you would know that these are not real perfect grades, they lack many of the manuerabilty that Japanese perfect grades have. It is also a little weak lasting about 1 week in the in a final shot postion that my Japanese perfect grade lasted for about 1 year in. The color is a little off. it is more expensive then that Japanese version, but doesn't add anything to it, infact it takes away most of the medal securing locations, some of the information about the history of the mobile suit and the BATTLE ZERO UNIT isn't aviably, it is a little bit smaller, and the detail of the skeloton and armor along with the wings are not as good as the Japanese version.Overall if you really want the PG version buy the Japanese version, you will be happier, also you will save some money."
282405,1,for new age music fans,"As much as I like some of Jon's music, I mostly appreciate his lyrics. This album totally disappointed me. It's just another new age album, to me plain boring. I'll stick to ""toltec"" and what he did with Vangelis, most of which I find extraordinary."
282502,1,Give this machine negative 5 stars,This machine worked twice before it stopped spraying water and solution from the machine. I went online and read some reviews and found that it is famous for soap clogging the lines. I got rid of this piece of junk and bought the Hoover steam cleaner off HSN and LOVE it! It works great and even has a blow dryer underneath which dries the carpet fast. Save your money and DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK!
282601,1,What were they thinking?,"I am a huge fan of all of the korn albums, except this one, and apparently, korn wasn't a big fan of this album either, because their last two albums were nothing like issues. Untouchables was way harder, and Take a look in the mirror was hard and fast, like the rest of their albums. Way to much filler and nit enough killer to seal the deal on this album."
282629,1,poor quality,"For the life of me, I can't understand why this set gets such great reviews! My one-year-old bent this broom in half. Do I really need to say more? Spend a little more and get something sturdier."
282631,1,A very cut-rate quality compilation indeed,"This entire CD is rechanneled stereo (bad news for audiophiles), but these 12 songs are among his signature songs and is an OK overview for those who don't want a multi-disc overview although a much better single disc overview of his hits is ""Bing's Gold Records"" which remains in print and available right here at Amazon.com. This compilation was originally released as an LP on MCA in 1977 and some of the songs, aside from ""White Christmas"" that are on it include ""Pistol Packin' Mama"" (with the Andrews Sisters), ""Don't Fence Me In,"" (with the Andrews Sisters), his versions of ""I Surrender, Dear"" and ""Blue Skies,"" ""Deep In The Heart of Texas,"" ""Swinging on a Star,"" ""Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive,"" (with the Andrews Sisters) and others but all of the songs on the disc are great. The best thing about the disc is indeed the price. The song selection could have been better though."
282636,1,"A valiant effort, but it fails.","Remember those cheesy kung fu movies from the 1970s - how bad the dialogue was when dubbed into English? The words of the original songs in French fit every note, change and nuance of the music, but here it sounds like a very bad translation that should have been left alone. The musical arrangements - lots of synthesizers, and overamplified guitars, destroy what's left of the music. perhaps that is the biggest sin in some of the tracks: to try to artificially make them sound contemporary. For the French impaired the album as well as its companion ""Intoxicated Man"", serve as an introduction to the music and words of Serge Gainsbourg. Hopefully at best, this won't discourage English language listeners from seaching out and acquiring the real thing. It sounds a whole lot better in the original French language and arrangements: Trust me!"
282658,1,You don't always get what you want.,"I ordered a black Artic Shark four slot watch box for a birthday present. The order form that arrived also said black, but the outside of the box said burgundy. It was burgandy, and I've been trying to return it without success (emails and phone calls) and having to pay over $7 for its return. Returning it sounded easy, but I still have the unwanted box. Beware of this possibility."
282836,1,Needs lots of work,"This book seems to have passed through the editing stage without actually being edited. There are at least 4-5 typos in each chapter. It takes longer to figure out what the questions are asking than it does to actually do the questions. Whoever solved the problems and put answers in the back did the majority of them incorrectly, because the answers are wrong. In the chapters themselves, the wording is unclear and confusing. I would highly recommmend checking out other P-Chem books before purchasing this one."
282885,1,Half-baked.,"A disappointment. The best song is easily ""There there"", while the rest is mostly uninspired, meandering filler. Supposedly a mesh of their more recent experimental style and their original guitar rock flavors, the album can't hold a candle to any of ""Kid A"", ""Amnesiac"", or ""The Bends"". Radiohead was once one of the best bands in the world. What went wrong? Boring."
282887,1,What happened?,These guys have made some phenomenal music. This one is a bore!Overrated *clap clap clap clap clap*Overrated *clap clap clap clap clap*!
282892,1,and a half,"Ever since Ok computer and the ridiculous amount of praise and hype it got, Thom and crew beleive they don't have to try anymore. They write a few decent songs per album then fill the rest in with avante garde ""soundscapes"" and other awful mood peices. I doubt most people here ever really paid attention to electronic music such as Autechre, Massive attack or Krawftwerk before they heard Kid a. But as soon as Radiohead does it, its considered genius. Better run out and buy all those Aphex twin albums. Hail to the Thief isnt as electronic as thier previous 2 overated albums. Theres more of a Tom waits smokey piano ballads vibe to it. Theres also a few straight ahead rock songs here, 2+2=5, Go to sleep, There There, all of which are good. A Punchup at a wedding and A wolf at the door are the only other 2 tracks i would consider songs. The rest is for those who liked ""treefingers"" and ""pulk/pull revolving doors"", not me."
282927,1,one of the worst films ever,"I can't believe that there are people who actually saw the movie and could actually say they enjoyed it. I saw this movie with 5 people and we coudln't believe that someone actually agreed to make this movie and worse- star in it! It's really bad people. It's not funny, it's boring, and when you finish watching it you feel like you just burned some brain cells. This has got to be one of the most pathetic excuses for a film that I have EVER seen. All involved should be ashamed. stay FAR FAR FAR away."
283015,1,SanDisk Sansa c250 2 GB MP3 Player (Black) (Purchased 2008-06),"When I received it, I could not turn it on, so I checked the user menu and fialed to find out how to trouble-shoot. After spent a couple of hours, I decided to quit."
283034,1,"Poorly organized, outdated information","This book looks comprehensive because it covers a lot of topics, but it's so hard to find anything because it's so randomly put together. It would be great to have details structured on a timeline, but that's not how the authors wrote this. Details on searching for a venue don't appear until page 145 -- well after all the details on whether or not to have a receiving line at the reception. It claims to have advice, ideas and relief, but there isn't much of any of those topics. It's superficial and overwritten, and incredibly unhelpful. It also seems like it was written in the mid-90s, with pictures from 15 years ago as well."
283040,1,"Horrible, DO NOT BUY this product unless you like pain!","This product is horrible - I tried it, bought it from HBA Products, and am waiting for them to respond to my request for a refund, reason being it burned the top part of my lip, and did not remove the hair! It feels like fiberglass running across your skin, and I didn't even have hardly any hair to remove! Now I'm left with swollen, irritated skin, which will take forever to calm down, that's tender to the touch! And I've waisted hard earned money.Ladies, listen to me, I implore you: DO NOT RISK TRYING THIS PRODUCT!!!!! It may work for a few people, but there are others out there who got burned like I did. It's not worth it, I may have to even go to the doctor now because of this ridiculous cheap imitation."
283058,1,Only if you're a professional dancer,"I tried. I really did. But I just could not 'get' the moves in this workout. I'm about as uncoordinated as they come, so I'm sure some of it is me; however, I found that I simply could not contort myself into the positions necessary. Cross this foot over that foot, then kick yourself in the rear. No thanks. I nearly fell over several times just trying."
283192,1,This is NOT an instructional video,"While I realize that Ted Nugent is a ""personality"" -- I was not buying this video for an entertainment experience -- I was looking for a serious guitar instructional video that would help me improve my skills. The parts of the video that contained actual instructions were too fast with no break-downs to display right and left hand movements. P.S. His opening antics demonstrate a misuse of firearms that only reinforces the need for serious gun control in this country."
283197,1,I should have read the reviews before buying!,Hopefully others will take the time to read the reviews prior to buying and learn from the mistake I made. I neglected to read that the batteries required for this toy are VERY hard to find and expensive.
283273,1,A Disappointing New Book from Hannah Howell,"I am usually a fan of Hannah Howell, but her newest book ""Highland Angel"" was a great disappointment. A major plot point concerns sexual abuse of children and that immediately concerned me. I found it so distasteful,I really couldn't enjoy the book in any way. The next time she has a new book, I will be wary of just buying it without checking out the contents."
283290,1,Clicking noise of death...,"I have the 60G version of this drive. I bought it for the small form factor (good).It never left the neoprene pouch and almost always sat on my desk. It was never bumped or otherwise mishandled.The first died just under warranty, and was eventually replaced by Apricorn. The new one died just OUT of warranty and I was told to go away. No consideration for previous problems, just ""too bad"".The clicking noise is a VERY bad sign.Never again."
283308,1,Burns batteries better than a bonfire,"I have owned this camera for about 18 months and have been buying Kodak products for 50 years. Never again. Battery live was marginal when the camera was new. Now, the camera shuts down after two or three pictures, even with new batteries or newly charged batteries. If you buy this camera, you will likely regret it. Kodak should have recalled these because the battery problem is rampant. I wrote to Kodak and, based on the response, I would say that Kodak just doesn't care."
283360,1,"big noise, no heat, useless",Made a lot of noise but could not generate enough heat to remove fog from a windshield let alone ice even when held right up to the windshield. The only heat that could be felt was if you held your hand 1/2 an inch directly in front of it and that was minimal at best. Bought this because the heater in my car had ceased working and to cope with the sudden freezing temperatures in Central California making it very difficult to get going in the early mornings. What little heat it throws is generated from a tiny light bulb. Very misleading. The 20% restocking fee (which should have been revealed up front but wasn't) and return postage made it not worth even returning. Would definitely not recommend it to anyone. Save your money and time.

283403,1,I only give it one star because I can't give zero.,"My doc was amazed when I told him how much of the Natrol DHEA I'd been taking, because my numbers were so low. He said my DHEA should be around 200, and it's 83.3 AFTER a month of 100mg/day, when he usually recommends 10-25/day, depending on your levels. Not sure what's in this, but it sure as heck isn't 25mg of DHEA."
283450,1,Do Not Buy!,These things are horrible. Here's why:1. They hurt your ears.2. The sound quality is awful! The music sounds very distant and quiet.3. The cord is short.4. I can't stand the awkward way in which you must wrap them around your ears.Do not buy these headphones. I for one am returning them.P.S. It may just be the fact that I am trying to replace a set of Bose headphones.
283454,1,I don't like it.,"I found the story to be boring, draggy, the author does not seem to have fresh ideas."
283464,1,Nothing to write home about,"It is a short read. Not much detail here. He starts with the text already translated and that is a disappointment. It seems that most of the real discussion involves the original text.With that said, most readers will not want to spend days learning French, Latin and other languages to be able to read the quatrains. So the average reader may enjoy this quick and dirty examination of Nostradamus and his predictions. Consider it a beach read."

283590,1,This guide is a complete waste of money,"On the up side it's got lots of pretty, out of focus pictures and it's 223 pages long. If you are worried about spoilers you won't find any here. It's just a straight walk through. With a few pages on the mini games an a few on game basics. It also has lists of items, not particularly helpfull. Also not helpfull is the amount space dedicated to the 108 stars. If you play the game you should have no problem finding at least 106 stars. Gau you have to stumble across in a random battle. Snow is really the only one you will have any difficulty finding. Do yourself a favor check online at gamefaqs. You will find better, more detailed walkthroughs that actually have the info you need for free. Don't waste your money here. If you are dead set on buying this waste of paper at least look at a hard copy first before putting down your money."

283673,1,JUNK,"I ordered one of these a year ago. When It came, It had an inoperative thermocoupler. I sent it back for a replacement. The replacement came and had the same issue. To use this heater I have to clamp the the""primer"" button down which eliminates the only safety feature designed into it. Sometimes the heater won't ignite regardless of fuel flow. Do not buy this piece of JUNK!"
283682,1,Stubborn Twig,This article was not worth the price. It shed no new light on the content of the book. I was very disappointed with this purchase.
283705,1,This is the worst book I ever read,"I have two college degrees and have therefore read my share of text books. Of all of them, this book is by far the worst. The author makes no attempt whatsoever to explain the material in an understandable way. The text is extremely difficult to follow. Worst of all, there are MANY typagraphical errors (usually in the mathematics). On average, I found a math error on every other page. When trying to understand a concept in this book you find yourself wondering if you really don't understand it, or if the author just made another math error. After hours of work, you end up finding that the author just made another math error. This is a miserable excuse for a physics book."
283818,1,Ignition Module bad after one year-Loud-Heavy-Does have good blowing power,"This blower received as a gift and was thrilled as I have a huge yard. I used my new 2007 model in the fall of 2008 and was really happy with the unit. Worked great, blew awesome and was happy I had it. Then came 2009, the unit was stored as should be with all fuel drained, and come spring a new plug and fresh gas. WON'T START!!!! Took it to a small engine repair place who sells this product paid $35 bucks just to look at it only to be told the ""Ignition Module"" is bad and it would cost more to repair then it would be to purchase a new blower. I have written to Poulan o see if there have been recalls or any issues on this in regards to this machine. If I hear anything I will post it.Very disappointed!I do reccomend wearing ear protection due to this is a loud unit.This is not an item for poeple that have a hard time holding things for a long period of time as this is a heavy unit."

283864,1,"Aaliyah, I TRULY Miss U ...","Ashanti probably is a nice enough girl, but where's the talent?This last full length LP just shows how limited as an artist she was. Can't sing, can't dance and can barely walk in high heels.If it weren't for the successes of Janet Jackson, Paula Abdul and Aaliyah, who weren't the greatest singers, but could hold it down as true ""entertainers"" Ashanti probably would have no career.Concrete Rose should be the end of the line for a chick that'll probably end up working a desk job at Murda Inc. in a few years.Stay away from this LP (and this kind of , dare I call it, ""music"" for that matter).Uninspired album with little to no value to the hip hop/R&B; landscape.Get a Mary J. Blige, Faith Evans, Aaliyah, Monica, Brandy, Fantasia, Keyshia Cole or Toni Braxton album before you even consider buying Concrete Rose."
283894,1,please look at other options before you buy this camera,"I am fed up with this camera. My parents bought it for me because i have a Gateway computer and they wanted to make sure that my digital camera would be compatible with my computer.I'll just make this short and sweet.1 : McGyver couldn't figure out how to turn this camera on.2 : Expect to miss a lot of potentially great shots, because the start up screen stays on unnecessarily long.3 : Expect blurry shots for the first 2 weeks of using it.4 : If you buy a large memory card, you computer will start freaking out whenever you plug the USB into it.5 : If you plug it into a new G5, your pictures may get erased.6 : Customer Service at Gateway won't help.Just get something else. It will save you from so much frustration and anger in the long run."

283919,1,Looks good but didn't last,"We recieved this as a Christmas present in Dec 2009. Nice size, looks great, removable shelves, easy to use. However around 6-7 months later it started to run constantly, and after that it stopped cooling completely (verified with a thermometer we put in it to check). Unfortunatly this resulted in our power bill going significantly up for a few months before we pinpointed the culprit. Now that I read the reviews, I see that we are not the only ones that this has happened to. If this is such a common problem, I would hope that there would be some kind of recall on this item. But it seems that even if you cash in on the warranty, you still have to pay the shipping costs... which isn't worth it to us.I'd be very hesitatant to buy this brand again, unfortunately."
283933,1,For High School readers and younger,"The overall impression of this book is that the writer is an undergraduate, a freshman. The author contradicts herself per paragraph, and contradicts her definitons of characters. She cuts and pastes the same words at the wrap of each character chapter, and presents 'exercises'. The characters she chooses do not fit her own definitions."
283956,1,he needs to get back with paul brown,"not what I was expecting from him. Everyone out there knows Boney is a fantastic saxophonist. However, this album left much to be desired. I wonder why he left Paul Brown, his former producer. He released some excellent albums with Paul brown. I don't think he's doing well enough on his own. I did not find any track particularly mind-blowing. If anyone that really knows boney doubts this, perhaps you ought to listen to ""seduction"" and ""sweet thing"" before making any comments. This latest album is nothing compared to those two. woork harder boney. I would not advise anyone new to Jazz to buy this album."
283990,1,"Good multi, but tastes awful!","Having worked in a vitamin store many years ago, I am very familiar with Country Life products. They are an excellent product and I trust the purity and strength of their vitamins and minerals. This is a great product, IF YOU CAN GET AROUND THE TASTE! It is horribly bitter with a long nasty aftertaste. I will not order again as I threw the entire bottle out. Nature's Plus is also a fantastic product and they taste great! Just ordered them to replace the Country Life I tossed."
284136,1,Haywire,"I am sitting here in a very frustrated state of mind. I have McAfee which has allowed a virus, Downloader AWX, to break into a file and I can locate no technical support. Their 1-800 is closed all weekend and today is Saturday. When their office is open it is virtually impossible to speak to a person.This is the second time I have sought support and could locate none. Their website is completely non-user-friendly. It is totally hostile! They have many boxes of choices, selections and questions--you feel you have to tackle 50 quarterbacks to get past go.I do not want to have anything to do with this backward peration again.This may be last thing I write for a long time as this computeris going haywire."
284165,1,disappointment,"AVENGER is a let-down compared to other Forsyth works. The cast of characters is large, and many of them are obviously there simply to advance the plot. Yet Forsyth gives paragraphs and sometimes pages of background information on these characters. The effect is like enduring the phony pleasantries of a salesman who is chatting you up before the pitch. Secondly, the success of the hero depends on the ""bad guys"" making a series of stupid mistakes, to the point that it becomes difficult to suspend disbelief. Thirdly, even as far as action adventures go, this one is lacking because the hero has almost no downturns or setbacks against which he must struggle. Even an episode of ""Scooby Doo"" has more plot twists. Finally, Forsyth frequently employs a prissy sort of writing style, using euphemisms and phrases in quotation marks when a direct statement would be more approriate. The overall effect is smarmy, outdated and predictable, like a Roger Moore-era James Bond flick."
284278,1,Not worth more than $5.00,"In all honesty, this book isn't worth it. The author basically advises that it's best to ""not lack"" in any area of your life to attract the most desirable men. And after the first couple of pages, the constant fishing analogies begins to wear more than a little thin. Spend your hard earned money elsewhere."
284311,1,CHEAP,"cheap product. very disappointed. after using for a short time, the plastic cover broke, the pastic threads on the cap wore and no longer attached properly, and the piece that keeps the water inside kept falling off into the water chamber. i ended up buying a nebulizer and it works much better."
284345,1,From loathing to love in record time.,"I have read everything Holt has written but have been let down by her last two novels. I love a good erotic read as much as the next, however, there needs to be some redeeming qualities in the leads. The heroine went from loathing the hero to loving him within the first few chapters. The hero, was not far behind.I felt no build-up at all and their love was not at all convincing. They were in love because the author *tells* us they are. I was left scratching my head in wonder how this man who was so disreputable fell in love and lust so quickly. I ended up stopping halfway through in frustration as I could see where the predictable plot was going.I recommend *Love Lessons* and *Total Surrender* for spicy Cheryl Holt reads."
284352,1,Motorola 5.8GHz 2-Line Corded/Cordless A/M MD7091,"The handset does not work. It kept fading on me, like a cell phone. I bought this phone last week, to replace an ATT 2.4GHz, but ended up going back to the ATT phone which is about 6 years old. The Motorola is an expensive phone with a normally reliable brand name, so I am surprised to have this problem. Unfortunately, I found out the handset problem is common for this model, after the purchase."

284477,1,Not Worth It,I would not recommend purchasing this. It is a total waste of money. The necessary information is available elswhere without a price tag. I feel totally ripped off.
284489,1,Do not buy it!,"Worst tool ever. Possible that mine is defective but I was not able to make one good patch cord! It just didn't crimp the tab into the cable at all. Those eight little ""bars"" fit perfectly between tabs - meaning plastic.I tried it on a few differed heads with no success. Tried to adjust it with no luck. So for me it didn't work at all. Bought one in HD for 17$ it works seamless without any problems or issues. And Belkin is in dumpster right now."
284496,1,disappointed,"First and last time I read Linda Howard if this is her typical style. A little reality please. A police officer takes the victim home with him. Yeah sure. Happens all the time. A woman who pretends to be dumb when it suits her gives all woman a bad name. Makes me want to scream grow up Blair! Nobody cares that you were homecoming queen 10 years ago. Ex-husbands new wife is jealous of you, sure thing! I usually read murder mysteries and this is not even close."
284512,1,second-hand and too wet,"It actually is of little importance to a listener how long and why this outfit kept in the shade. This album will, for all we know, put them away for longer still. Reason is a-plenty. To begin with, neo-romantic synhty-pop is not quite making hey these days. The material smacks of Wet Wet Wet's heydays. And anyway, this sort of nagging suicidal gloom is too much to bear in A-ha, Weeping Willows, Doves and the entire Glitterhouse label's output. On the plus side we have here 11 cute and crafty tune arrangements - but then again, vaguely reminiscent of 80's new wave era which Erasure never failed to subscibe to. Wake up, little Suzie, wake up!"
284530,1,great gun... for a short while:(,I ordered this gun on sunday and it came on friday. i took it out and put it together and charged it up and shot a few rounds that night. then i was playing with it for a while the next day put it away charged it up took it out again and somthing in the mag was rattling and it wouldnt shoot. Now it is saturday of the same week and i will send it back Mon or Tues.
284624,1,"Very accurate, but some problems","I really like the fact that the Omron HJ-112 Pedometer is very accurate.However, I found it confusing to set up and had to get some help from another person to get it right (I hope). I also wish that it would face up when attached, instead of down, for when I wish to check my progress as it is clipped to the waistband of my jeans/slacks. It is awkward to try to read. I do not wish to carry it in my pocket. I also wish that it could be less bulky and a bit smaller, as it frequently becomes disconnected from my waistband and thank goodness for the safety band that I bought for it or I would have lost it several times. I feel that it could be a much better product if these changes could be made. If these improvements could be made, I might consider buying another one."
284832,1,A slow moving movie...,"I bought this movie based on some of the reviews I read here, but I personally found the movie really slow going. The production was great either. The saving grace to the movie is just the last part of it when he discovered who burnt the house which killed the family."
284914,1,Sane and balanced view of inferior foreigners.,"Now, folks out there have been objecting to Mr Ambrose's characterisation of all those limey creeps.... uh, British servicemen at D-Day as gutless. But, hell, it's true.Now some smart fellows have suggested that Mr Ambrose should prove this assertion by repeating it to one or two British D-Day veterans, face to face. And let me assure them that just as soon as Mr Ambrose secures permission to hire armed security guards to tie one or two of those vets up and hold them at gunpoint, he surely will. Now as to the assertion that Mr Ambrose left out, uh, maps, captured German documents, testimony, official casualty figures, and the US Army's own Survey of the war in Europe, merely because they contradicted his brilliant arguments ....Uh, well, I think personally that omitting or distorting facts to insult the dead is a good thing to do.And no, I'm not gonna give you any reasons why I think that.What are you, some kinda foreigner?"
284961,1,Poor Quality,Purchased this player for the reason that it fit the overhead compartment in our Town and Country. The first one we got broke right away so we returned it and got sent a new one. We had that one for about a year and there were many problems with it. It wouldn't read the DVD's all the time and would give error messages. Also the battery life was very short and usually couldn't make it through a whole movie. It then totally died after about a year and wouldn't play anymore. Would not recommend COBY electronics. They are the cheapest but like anything you get what you pay for and this player was junk. Spend the extra money on something that will last and you will enjoy more when you have it.
284979,1,Actually not worth the money.,"The markers we got were not washable ones. Also, the chalk breaks apart so easily. It's a cute idea and the main body of the Easel is sturdy. The letters are really tiny so not good for a young toddler. We're goingto get a stand-up easel for our grandson in a few months. They're of course more expensive but will be worth it."
285000,1,"Steve, come back, wherever you are!","Steve, you've been my Comedy God since I saw your stand-up routine live in the 70's. But this ""book"" is literally a lightweight that doesn't do justice to your considerable talents. Want to read funny, try ""Naked Pictures of Famous People"" or even ""In The Bin""-a hockey book for god's sake-but pass on this paltry effort"
285020,1,Decent first novel,"This book was good cheap entertainment. It kept a fairly steay flow until the last 80 pages. As far as content goes, the prologue was the best part. For the most part, it and it's cookie cutter characters where utterly forgetable. The rendition of Einstein and the Chinese Military threat where interesting, but somewhat shallow, never truly delivering. Mr. Dirgo must starve himself while writing, because his preoccupation with what thte characters where eating and drinking and had already eaten and drank before we got there was almost scary! Got a long plane ride ahead of you? Go ahead."
285043,1,Not compatible with 2003 Subaru Outback,"I ordered this part because the Amazon garage said:This product fits your 2003 Subaru OutbackEngine: 3.0L H6 Gas DOHC Distributorless Naturally Aspirated SFI Electronic FI MFITrim: L.L. BeanFitment Notes: GENUINE INTERMOTOR QUALITYIt does not, however, fit my car. It's not even close. Unfortunately Amazon does not carry a TPS that does fit my car, so I'm returning this and ordering the correct part elsewhere."
285113,1,A Sequel That Never Should Have Been Written,"Finney's sequel to Time and Again is a sad attempt at recapturing the success of his first novel. Maybe I was hoping for too much since the first novel was so enjoyable, but as one reviewer said, this historical novel falls flat. The ending to Time and Again was so perfect for the story Finney had created and his attempt to alter the ending was ill-advised. The possibilities with time travel are endless and you could essentially have an infinite number of sequels, but you can only strike gold once, which Finney should have realized. Read the first one and don't bother with this."
285123,1,poor mac product,constant problems with updates and mistakes. I have been using tax software since the early 90s and this is BY FAR the most problems I have ever had! Next yr I will use a mac only product. I had to send an ammended return too! Software chose my standard deduction over my itemized and I had to refile to get my full refund. Mac n tax was great. This company doesnt care if they get the mac market or not so I choose NOT!
285226,1,BUYER BEWARE!!!,"Seller pulled a bait & switch, sent me a different, cheaper version of the pictured product. Never could get through when I called, slooow response time on e-mail. All in all my worst Amazon transaction in 5 years!!!!"
285230,1,Not a Good Choice for a Mega Light,"Extremely unwieldy and very poorly designed.The grip is extremely uncomfortable, and is way too small for the size of the lamp head.There apparently was absolutely no ergonomic design thought put into this light.I have tried some of the other lights on Amazon, but, like other purchasers, had battery recharging issues.The search continues."
285236,1,Bad Product!,"1: The outer tabs break off easily when connecting and disconnecting.2: not all connectors were threaded alike. some connectors threaded in easily, but others did not. I would have to use pliers to fully screw it in. This would destroy my coaxial cable. I found a 10 pack of quick connectors at 1/3 the cost. They work without any problem."
285277,1,Too much! Too much!,"Sorry to say, this is not one of the better volumes in this series. It is about twice as long as it needs to be: wordy, rambling, and pompously didactic.The entire series (""The Message of ..."") is directed at the more general student of the Bible. It stays away from highly technical textual crtiticsm, aiming instead at the lay reader who just needs a little help with context, imagery, etc. Some volumes of the series are excellent in this respect. This is just not one of them.The author successfully avoids the technical and scholarly emphasis, but falls right off the other side of the mountain by letting his generalized ""preachiness"" quite run away with him.The end result is that the reader must filter through a great deal of extraneous vaporizing to get to the meat of Ezekiel."
285335,1,"Bad deal! Never, ever received!!","I ordered this item on June 3. Two+ weeks into ordering, I could see it was apparent that it was not coming my way. I contacted the seller, who validated it had been sent, but I feel their response was ""canned"", or an automated reply. I contacted them again after 3 weeks. Again, kindly (to their credit...) they assured me it was sent. It never, ever came. The seller told me their ""refund policy"" was to wait a full 30 days from the date of order, and if I hadn't received it, they would issue a full refund. That is where I am in this entire, month-long process. Disappointed, tired of having to take the initiative to get some action done, in order to make me a satisfied customer."
285370,1,Annoying Drivel,"Several of the most annoying people I've ever known drone on incessantly about how they're going to be millionaires by obsessively following this book's commands. I glanced at it in the bookstore at it seemed to be resemble most diet plans, i.e. eat less and exercise. If I understand correctly, if I spend less, put my money in mutual funds, and devote all my waking hours to accumulating money, I can join the ranks of people with a million dollars. Ge, no thanks, I think I'll keep my personality the way it is, and read some decent novels instead of this drivel. May I recommend Thomas Pynchon as a start? Or maybe a tome of history, say, C. Vann Woodward?"
285374,1,Boring...,"If this book got summarized in a Newspaper article, it would have been acceptable.But it was a long boring book, that I could not finish..! In summary this books talks about certain Millionaires (who are a majority by the way) who made their furtune by being cheap!"
285407,1,SORRY JOE BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME ....BORING !,"I am a fan of Joe Ely but this cd is boring lack luster no spark with sterile production, stick with love and danger or live at liberty lunch cd's that is the Joe Ely with grit and soul that kick's ass ! J.B."
285428,1,Not too interesting for the experienced,"The book has a very simple and clear way to describe what 3D design is about. It takes a simple project and teaches how to design it from scratch using basic design elements and explains how to develop it to a 3D animation film touching on cinematography and aesthetics(though very subtle and superficial).It is a great source for beginners and people who are not familiar with design and 3D terminology and elements. However even somewhat little experienced designers involved in 3D or graphic design would see that they already know most of the stuff told in the book. It is like ""3D & Design for Dummies""."
285442,1,Can't detect a difference,"I have had this unit for nearly a week at this point. After reading all the reviews I had high hopes for something inexpensive that would actually work in my truck. After a week of it running constantly I can not detect a thing. No change in odor, no Ozone smell, nothing, nadda, zip...."
285459,1,"Yes, Cooked Food Is Poison, We Get The Point","This book was great. And then you reach the end of every chapter to see the line ""Cooked food is poison."" REALLY ANNOYING! So, I was so annoyed by the repeated ANNOYING ""Cooked food is poison"" that I didn't even read 1/3 of the book."
285470,1,Horrible,This is one of the worst books I have ever read. Steve Martin should never stray from acting. I was highly disappointed. I would not recommend this book to anyone.
285481,1,Absolute Drivel,"After hearing much about Mr. Patterson and his previous efforts, I decided to give this novel a try. To put it mildly, this book is quite hard to read. Not because the narrative is so descriptive nor because the vocabulary is so erudite, but simply because I found myself rolling my eyes so often in disbelief. Almost every aspect of this book is trivial. The plot is nonsensical, the dialogue is awkward and reminiscent of a soap opera and the characters are strerotypical at best. I became angry with this story and therefore had to put the book down. FOREVER."
285518,1,Nothing better than OK,"I was very entertained the first two thirds of the book, knowing there are actually prison cons that are just as crazy and tough as Lamar. I also personally know about 5 Texas Rangers and State Troopers. I would be the first to agree they are tough as nails..but come on, Bud should have met his maker about 7 times during the book. Any law enforcement officer would agree. The last one third of the book was ""corn"". The thing with Holly is over the top. She sounds too much like a ""fatal attraction"" little twit that just needs to go get a life. Having sex with Lamar would have probably made her stalk Lamar and they could have lived happily ever after. This book could have been superb but I think the author got a little carried away with the ""Bud tough guy thing"" or obsession with the 9 lives. I would try other Hunter books but I don't think I could handle anymore unreal scenerios."
285524,1,Don't bother if you've read any other leadership books.,"This book doesn't add anything to the mix of leadership advice. Not one of the 22 traits have I not seen before -- numerous times -- in other books. Her ""Lions Don't Need to Roar,"" is a much, much better and more practical book."
285638,1,memorex are the worst!,"yes, they really are the worst. i have used many, many different brands and speed dvdr's, but memorex are terrible! i'd say 1/2 -2/3 of the packs are coasters. save your money, don't buy memorex. try tdk or verbaim instead."

285684,1,"Poor, pathetic George.","George gets a rash when over stressed, has to take anti depressants and see a therapist. I wouldn't want this guy managing a ToysR Us store. These lame kiss and tell books tell us very little we don't know already, I don't hear how well the country is doing or any number of good or brave decisions made. George thought he would write a book about the REAL Clintons. I guess he just wallowed in his own self righteous navel gazing."
285701,1,Not So Comforting,"I had my eye on this book for a few weeks while I browsed around at Barnes and Noble. Finally I broke down and bought it. Big mistake! I found the plot to be completely unbelievable, and repetitive. As I was reading it, I found that certain details just seemed to ""happen"" instead of giving enough background information to support it. This book was based more on the love affair between Fallon and Wade then it did the actual point of their characters. I did not find the plot to be relatable or the characters for that matter. DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK if you are looking for a good plot."
285767,1,Ouch!,"If I could give a 0 rating, I would. Like many others here, I wish that I would have read the customer reviews before I bought the book. I really enjoy Patterson's work, but this book offended me. I won't even keep the book in my house - it's gone to the trash - where it should have stayed! Bring back Alex Cross."
285788,1,LAAAAME.....,This game could be good. If they had a more variety of moves and a more variety of types of matches and arenas. It does'nt have some of the great people I though it would like Ken Shamrock and some others. But It lacks variety. I'd choose WWF Raw over this anyday. This game is straight up GARBAGE. The people who rate this game good obviously don't have good taste or they are just too big of UFC fans. Please for your own sake DO NOT BUY THIS GAME ever.
285795,1,Painful reading.,"James Patterson is very hit and miss. One book will be an excellent thriller and the next will be a disaster. This is one of the disasters. The characters and story just never seem to come together. I had a hard time staying with this one until the end. I wish Patterson would pay more attention to details. He left much of the story confusing and there more than a few plot holes. If you are an Alex Cross fan it may be worth reading, but I can not recommend such a poorly written book."
285883,1,Disappointed,"The original CELESTINE PROPHECSY was successful in part because of its freshness. While Mr. Redfield's core ideas: synchronicity, energy fields, and the spiritual evolution of the planet, were in themselves hardly original, he presented them in an appealing new way that had resonance for contemporary readers. His sequels, however, especially this one, have been disappointments because his thinking has hardened into a kind of repetitive ideology. There's still some compelling material here underlying all this, but Mr. Redfield needs to take a break to get back in touch with it"
286036,1,The worst Bond book ever,"This is without a doubt the worst Bond book ever! I have read all of Ian Fleming's and John Gardner's and for the most part was impressed with the writing style and the commitment to the character Fleming created. Raymond Benson, however, is a terrible writer and writes Bond horribly. From the lame and unwitty remarks 007 exchanges with 05 at the beginning, to the unintelligent excuse for a briefing with M, to Bond calling Q ""Major"", Benson has ruined the character and the genre. And the worst was when Bond discusses CLASSIFIED material about his mission in a restaurant! Of course he's overheard! What a lame plot development. I don't ever recall Bond as this stupid and un-Bondlike in all the novels and all the movies. Whoever picked this guy as the new ""Bond author"" should be fired. I don't think I'll ever pick up another Bond book until someone else starts writing them. Find someone with some sense of Bond and the style related to him!"
286046,1,Beware of the Purpose Driven Church! It is not what it seems,"On the surface, PDC looks innocent enough. But once the curriculum is implemented in the church, there are changes you didn't bargain for. The Holy Spirit is subdued, the church is run like a corporate business. (remember, God's ways are not our ways) The sermons are boring and similar to New Age thinking (everything is based on ""how I feel""). People who don't like the changes (the spiritually-mature and Biblically-established Christians) are told to go with the program or get out! The church may grow, but the new converts are being taught only a 'positive' message. Sin, redemption, repentance are not mentioned. The whole Gospel is not preached. Please!DO NOT USE THE PURPOSE-DRIVEN CHURCH CURRICULUM IN YOUR CHURCH!"
286058,1,NO Stars!!! C-R-A-P!!!!!! Not good enough for kids either.,"Very bad controls, won't mention the old school looking GFX (are we sure this was meant for the 360??). Your view gets blocked more often than you play, easily die due to crapy camera style. Oh, lets not even talk about the hefty pricetag, thanks for nothing. RENT this if for some reason you want to torture yourself. If you want some sonic action break out the sega or dreamcast."
286121,1,Portrait of the artist as a clown,"This is indeed a page turner: I was doing five at a time whenever the sex or philosophising started.More generally, the self-styled warrior-poet-healer-entrepreneur who narrates this story is clearly no more than a narcissistic fantasy. Not that I have a problem with loathsome narrators in fiction: Nabokov's Humbert in Lolita is a work of genius. But in this case the effect is unintended. The alleged autobiographical parallels run too deep, and irony is nowhere to be found. So peer into the shallows of this book's abysmal prose and you see a portrait of a very weak person.I am giving it one star on account of some individual passages that actually work, and another because the idea of someone laying bear such a meagre soul in the expectation of praise struck me as novel and comical; ie. entertaining."
286144,1,chirping cricket noise in my LN-T3253H,"After trying two new power supplies, my lnt3253h still chirps like a cricket on the 480i channels. Not on the 720i or 1080i channels. On a 480i channel, you mute the sound and can hear it clearly. In all fairness, the repair service (Kansas City area) people were nice, and did reduce the amount of sound somewhat. Guess we are going to call them back..."
286151,1,Disappointed,"I was happy that this product was just as I thought it would look and the size I wanted, but it gained 2 hours of time overnight. The return process so far has been very easy and efficient. This process is not complete as I just discovered the problem and initiated the return. This was a Christmas gift."
286182,1,The media is right,"Ann Coulter persuasively demonstrates that the mainstream media is well to the left of George W. Bush (Thank God), and that conservatives as a group have no sense of humour. Not news. The book is filled out with virulent rhetoric attacking anyone to the left of Genghis Khan. Nowhere does it attempt to defend Bush's indefensibly atrocious domestic and international policy that is making a laughingstock of the world's most powerful (and dangerous) country.A complete waste of time."
286190,1,"I guess a ""liberal"" is anyone who disagrees with Ann","I'm a moderate. I saw a poll that stated that over 70% of Americans consider themselves moderate, not liberal or conservative. As a moderate, sometimes I vote for conservative candidates, sometimes more liberal ones.I wish someone would explain to me, in a rational way (which this book does not do) why the media is supposed to be so liberal. I find it very balanced, with several viewpoints available both in print and on T.V.I think this book will only appeal to ultra-social-conservatives, not the mainstream American.I didn't like this book at all. Not because I disagreed with all of it (I agreed with much of it), it was just poorly written.$ave your money (I wish I did)!!!"
286193,1,Coulter Knows Slander,"As she recently demonstrated with her lies about war hero Max Cleland. Coulter and her fellow Chicken Hawks have demonstrated again and again that they have no shame or decency and that a big lie trumps a white lie every time. Wise up, America. You are being lied to and laughed out for your gullibility."

286416,1,"Poor choice, heels are lousy","Initially I was happy with these shoes. But, the heels quickly began to wear. The heel consists of a block of wood, with a thin, thin layer of rubber over it. Once the rubber begins to wear where the heel strikes (which happened for me in the first four months), the wood make the shoes very loud to walk in. And the more it wears, the worse the problem becomes. People in the office joked that they knew who was coming - namely me - because the sound was unmistakable. I won't be buying another pair of these."
286423,1,Big conflicts with Adaptec CD writer,"I've installed just about everything on my computer. This is the single most difficult piece of equipment I've ever attempted to install. The driver conflicts with the Adaptec Easy CD. Sandisk knows this, and after spending 15 minutes on their site, they give you instructions on where to download the patches. But the patches don't work. The compact flash reader shows up, then disappears.I installed a SmartMedia reader by SimpleTech and it went flawlessly. Sandisk should be ashamed of themselves for delivering a product with such buggy, awful drivers.I want to throw this product against the wall repeatedly, that's how mad I am."
286490,1,These headphones are no good!,"Whoever is thinking about buying these, be warned! These headphones are no good. Do not spend your money on them. I had them for less than 1 day, and already thay had that real bad fuzzy sound, and I was less than a foot away from the antana thing. Also, these headphones interfere with the telephone line, so in other words if you are listening to some music and somebody is on the phone, then they can hear what you are hearing. The onliest thing I found good about these things were that the earpieces were really soft. I hope my review helps somebody out in deciding whether or not to buy them or not."
286567,1,"UK customers beware, this item does not quite work for us... voltage/ampage problems","I purchased this item for about 60 british pounds, had to pay about 23 pounds for customs, UPS will only deliver if you pay up. Then found out I could not get this to work because the voltage is based on the American system. I admit, this item maybe terrific,but unfortunately I have never had the chance to try it out!!! I am so gutted about it!!!"
286581,1,Not good quality. And the sizing is all wrong...,I was pretty dissapointed when I bought these shoes. They look great in the photo but they have the sizing all wrong.. They run a complete size larger on many of their lines and you cant tell which lines are sized correctly and which arent... its a toss of the coin.I bought these in a size 9 but they really were a 10. They were a complete inch larger than my foot! I couldlnt believe it... I have tried other shoes of theirs and Id have to say 80% are sized too large...Its not worth the gamble...
286608,1,did not like,"I found the plot of this book to be choppy and not very well connected. Maybe it's just me, but I didn't like it at all. The characters are a little unrealistic, and I was disappointed. If you like this type of book about Vikings, great, but if not, it's not a very good read."
286646,1,This one just didnt do it for me.,"I really could not get into this book, I started it but could not finish it as well.Thank God I borrowed it from the library!!!"
286663,1,brother once again...,"Hi we purchased this machine (brother Intellyfax 2820) 14 months ago. In month 5 we started to hear a very annoying squeaky noise come out of our fax machine when printing. After 5 months of use we found out that it needed a drum replacement if wanted to preserve the sanity of our ears. At first we thought we will have to spend 10 o 15 bucks on this new part. To our surprise a drum costs $ 115 bucks !. Well, that is not all, we just found out that our fax machine displays the message ""Toner Life End"". Went to the store and purchased a $60 brand new original toner and put it back to the machine. Well, it keeps showing the same message. We called Brother and we are SOL because our warranty expired 2 months ago. Went online and realized that a bunch of other people have the same problem.. ohh God... that is it for me with the Brother family..."
286669,1,NOT healthy for guinea pigs!,"I used Hartz brand food when I had hamsters, and it was great. Hartz knows how to manufacture quality foods for SOME rodents. However, many people are not aware of the specifics of guinea pigs' diet, and mistakenly think that Hartz food is okay for them.Shame on Hartz for selling this product specifically for guinea pigs, because this is not what pigs ought to be eating, and they ought to know better. As my vet put it, pigs technically can eat the seeds and artificially colored cereal bits in this mixture, but it's a lot like feeding a human Twinkies 24/7. Guinea pigs are not built to digest seeds, in particular, and there is risk of digestive problems, which can be very serious issue.Buy a simple, quality pellet from Oxbow or Nutriphase for your piggies, and stick to hamsters and gerbils if you're going to buy Hartz."
286678,1,Too strong for my door,Opening resistance on this item is too strong. I did not install it for fear that it would damage my door. I had to to purchase another (adjustable) model at my local big box store.
286742,1,don't waste your money,We bought these traps to catch some stray cats and transport them to a rescue organization. The first problem occurred when we tried to set them- they would NOT set. Every time we tried the hook came loose when we let go of the door. A little fiddling with pliers took care of that- the hook stayed put and the trap sprung as expected when tested. We put the trap out and it broke the first time a cat sprung it. The entire metal arm on the outside of the cage was bent out of shape and no amount of repair attempts could fix it. We weren't able to use the trap a second time. Big waste of money.
286791,1,Meh,"Trying to bandage my cat is like trying to keep cooked spaghetti in a straw. She gets out of this in about 2 minutes flat. It is good and sticky, though, so if a pet can't reach it....."
286824,1,Sarah Palin would not approve,"This book is too biased against conservatives. If you love this country and believe in Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck, skip this book and stick with the Patriots History of the United States."
286831,1,Hard Vice - not so hard not so anything,"Shannon Tweed, only semi good in her own brand of softer adult films. In this movie she plays a cop trying to catch a killer that goes out at night as a call girl and kills the men who pay her to give them a good time. Don't waste your money on this one, its not worth it!"
286925,1,very disappointed,"We have now been through two of these. I will return the second today. With the first one, it would only play music after the first day. There was no motion. With the second-- the mobile portion has fallen in the crib three times. Fortunately my son was not in the crib when it did this. At first I thought it was because I assembled it incorrectly, but it is just faulty. I will return it today and will not get a new one."
286931,1,Motor never worked.,"We received this as a gift, set it up, got the music playing, but the motor never worked."
287024,1,Boring,"This seems more like the writing of a mildly talented high school student than a polished piece of writing. The composition is immature and strained. I found it boring, set it down, and doubt I will ever finish it."
287099,1,"nickelodeon party blast,horrible game","this game was bought for my niece and son.installed the game and it constantly shuts off.screen flickers,you can't use the keyboard correctly and then it just shuts off.they say it won't work with intel chipsets,well i have a via chipset and amd processor.so i guess they're wrong there.i'm using an ati radeon 9700 pro card,amd athlon 2200+ so there is plenty of power.tried the latest via and ati drivers with no help at all.don't waste your money and thank god i only wasted 9.99 at target.i also tried to totally clean the registry of all traces and it doesn't help.even a fresh install of xp didn't help.so there you have it.one last thing,there are no patches to download and support is like talking to a brick wall,except the wall might be more helpfull cause you can at least smash the cd off it."
287100,1,Do not buy for Kindle. Formatting renders unreadable.,"The book 777 is not properly formatted for Kindle. The charts are unusable and there is no attempt to present them as charts - they run on page after page with no delineation. Also, the symbols are not displayed: Arabic, Hebrew, Coptic, et al alphabets do not appear on the Kindle. Further, the books Gematria and Sepher Sephiroth are not included as they are in the print edition.If you wish to read this book, you must buy the print edition. The Kindle edition is completely unusable."
287118,1,Bad shaft,There are only two mixers on the shaft. As a result it is very difficult to mix the ice cream into a thick milk shake.
287134,1,Not what I expected,I really thought this lotion was going to be great but it was everything but that. If you are pale then DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. I promise you it will look very fake and orange if you are pale. I have light skin and dark hair and I couldn't even leave my house after I had put this stuff on. I looked like I needed to be sitting in a fruit basket. HORRIBLE! If you have a base tan then you could probably use it. I ended up giving mine to my father because he is very tanned. It looked ok on him but it does wash off easy and I found it coming off on my clothing days after I applied it. I would never buy it again.
287145,1,Too pricey,"I got a rather inexpensive pair (with shipping, it cost something around $8), and yet I still feel ripped off. The reason I was looking for new headphones was because the buds that I had were going in and out of working, and they fell out of my ear when I went to work out. These are fine for working out, but the sound quality really stinks. Also, when you turn the part that plugs into the MP3 device, it makes a fuzzy sound (another thing I was angry about with my current pair).I realize that I didn't buy high-quality headphones, but these are really quite bad. If you need over-the -ear headphones, look for them somewhere else, I'd say."
287152,1,Not for strenuous activity,These headphones are not for strenuous activity. Sweat running down your head collects in the headphone ear pieces and blocks out the sound.
287162,1,Not needed,These headphones were used a lot in my school by my peers so I decided to check them out because I hadn't gotten used to the headphones I recieved with my MP3 player. When I put them in I instantly took them out. These headphones receieve NO BASS at all and I've only used these headphones once or twice.I do not recommend these at all. Try something else.
287187,1,Big Disappointment,"This book is more like the ""The New Illustrated Encyclopedia of Aircraft Manufacturers"" then the ""The New Illustrated Encyclopedia of Aircraft."" It starts with a short and somewhat sketchy history of aviation then goes into the encyclopedia which it titles ""The A-Z of the World's Aircraft."". All of the entries are just different aircraft manufacturers. It mentions a little of the companie's history and gives a list of the companies products. While there are many pictures of aircraft in the book, no information is given for any of the aircraft that are mentioned in the book. All it is a list of aircraft manufacturers and what they make or made. I was very disappointed by this book and do not recomend it to anyone."
287192,1,DO NOT BUY THIS BLENDER!,"I bought this blender because i wanted a powerful blender, but did not want to invest $600 in a Vitamix. I had read product reviews praising this blender. I should have listened to the one review that said not to purchase it, because the motor blew just outside the warranty period..Just outside my warranty period the lid assembly had to be replaced. Now, within 2 years of purchase the entire canister and blade assembly has to be replaced at a cost of $36.00, which i refuse to pay. The gears or bearings under the blade assembly disintegrated.This blender was very inconvenient to use. The lid assembly leaked while blending and the rubber gasket around the lid had to be removed each time to be cleaned and realigned back on...a real pain. Also, the blender is extremely loud. Earplugs anyone?The Oster blender i had previously to this one lasted over 10 years.Juiceman products are manufactured in ""Phibber Magee's Land of Crapola"". DO NOT BUY THIS BLENDER."
287261,1,Not a good toaster,"This toaster is awful. It doesn't toast well, has a tiny capacity, is difficult to stop mid-toast (when the toast is burning you have to literally pull the plug to get it to stop), and the black plastic looks cheap and has discolored with foggy patches in a very short time with very little use. Would not recommend."
287291,1,Horrible examples...,"This book has horrible vocabulary examples (you know, the example that accompanies the vocab). For instance, an example for the word ""wry"" which means ""dryly humorous"" was ""if she is dryly humorous, then she is wry"". How stupid is that? There were tons of other examples that were just like that. Plus, the book doesn't really teach you how to score higher. It teaches you how to gamble with your score. I definately do not recommend this book!"
287296,1,The Crackle Is a Gimmick,"These hefty candles boast that they produce a fire-like crackle. The reality is that they crackle less loudly than those birthday candles that don't blow out. After about one minute, it's clear that you're not going to stop building fires in the fireplace and replace them with the alleged similar sounds of these candles. I ordered about a dozen of these as gifts, and the common response from the recipients after using them is that the scent produced is ""overbearing"" to the point that the candles are not preferred. One can easily fill up 1,000 square feet in about thirty minutes. The scents' heaviness are really overwhelming, which may be good when trying to cover other fumes, but not suggested for subtle or romantic mood-making."
287323,1,Disgusting,"There was nothing in the heroine's character to make the reader want to identify with her -- or even have sympathy for her. This book is a depiction of the most vulgar aspects of human character -- in the main characters! Vastly overused foul language and disgusting, unmeaningful sex scenes."
287324,1,Rational minds need not apply,"There is no substance in this blatant attempt to ""prove"" that the bible is the word of god and a true and unchanging record of history. Full of pseudoscience and blanket statements that defy logic, if you are not a faith based believer you will not get anything out of this so called documentary. I flushed my money away on this dog."
287360,1,EX-X850 Camera - The lens gets stuck frequently,"As the title suggests, this camera's lens system gets stuck. It suddenly resets after a few hours of being stuck. However, currently my camera has been in the stuck position for 3 days now. Now, I get to try Casio service...Will update this review if I get it repaired.However, on the bright side, I have taken just about a 1000 pictures with this camera. It does great with room lighting, sun light. Does not do well with low light. The pictures are superb for a layman's purpose.The videos are awesome quality (for lay people). Videos are good enough to watch on a TV screen!But, this camera does get stuck. BUYER BEWARE!Good luck with yours, if you do decide to buy."
287362,1,I hope you don't get a defective Camera Casio's Warranty Proccess is the worst I have seen,"I bought this camera because of the good ratings. I had tried it for a couple of weeks, and it kept taking blurry pictures. I called Casio support, and they had me reset everything and then try it for a couple of more weeks. Of course, by this time, it was too late to return it (I should have followed my instincts and returned it.) I called Casio after several months of blurry pictures (about 80%). First of all, Casio doesn't service the camera, a third part does. Second, you have to pay all expenses to ship the camera to the third party (about $15.00 UPS Ground.) Then the third party sends you a letter a couple of days later telling you they won't repair the camera until you send them $15.00 to mail the camera back to you. On top of this, the newly fixed camera (only 4 months old) only comes with a 90 day warranty. After that, you have to pay all of these fees again. I even buy $9.99 casio watch again."
287402,1,Disappointed,"My daughter got the PS1 with LCD screen combo for Christmas a year ago, and when we opened it and hooked it up, the screen did not work properly. The screen was black, but if you held it at an angle, you could tell there were graphics present. Yes, we adjusted the contrast and nothing helped. We took it back and they had no more in stock, so we went to Sears. We got their last one and I asked to hook it up and try it out before we left--just in case. Sure enough, it did the same thing, so we left empty handed. Finally, we found a combo unit at Target and it worked--for about 7 months. A few months ago, it started going on the fritz and if we unplugged the cable and fiddled with it, it would work again. It finally quit working alltogether. It was great while it worked, but now I'm leery as to how long another one will work. Is a 90 day warranty sufficient for an item so pricey? I don't think so. I'm faced with replacing it, because to fix it would probably cost even more. What a shame."
287452,1,Theyre Just Mynocks Chew,"Star Wars, more like Star bores! These movies are the pits, theyre banthor fodder. If i had it my way id take all the copies of all the movies, and throw them into a cave with a Wampa. Luke...a hero, yah right! His metaclorian count is like not even half of what his fathers was! Not to mention Emporor palpitine what a jerk...he looks like my grandmother...real scary. Im gunna move to the dagoba system if i hear anymore about this film. Anyone who likes star wars is a dork. There mothers didnt love them, their fathers were alcholics, and there sisters did DEATH STICKS!... Once i put the movie on i turned it off in less than 12 parcects... see you on the kessel run!"
287472,1,STAR WARS ASPECT RATIO PROBLEM???,"Amazon is stating in the films' specs that the STAR WARS blu ray releases will be in an Aspect Ratio of 1.33:1. This has to be a mistake doesn't it? The original films as well as earlier DVD releases were in the much, much wider (and correct) cinemascope 2.35:1 Aspect Ratio. What gives?I certainly am not buying these discs until I know the films are being released in the original, correct 2.35:1 ratio."
287527,1,Didn't even make one batch,"This was the #1 wish for my daughter's Christmas gift. She was so excited to find it this morning, but heart broken, when after only one batch, the machine wouldn't work anymore. We tried all the trouble shooting, called the manufacturer and they recommend that we return it! Very disappointing."
287528,1,smell the burning sugar,This toy was fun for the kids but as an adult I was concerned about the flame that would occur every so often. I also found the directions vague.
287644,1,Sending it back,"Panasonic is always a good name to rely on, but this massager is just not for me. I ordered it partly because of the brand name, but mostly for that peculiar little hook, which I was hoping would dig into this one spot on the top of my shoulder, which I press into with my thumb for pain relief.Hard to tell in the picture, but this machine is really huge and too heavy and cumbersome for me to use. I have a torn rotator cuff in my right shoulder, and I normally wake up at 2 or 3 a.m. in a lot of pain. Because it is my right shoulder, I have to use the massager with my left hand, and it is really very awkward for me. Plus, that little hook does not quite fit into that painful spot on top of my shoulder. Also, it is quite noisy, although I imagine that is a situation with most of this type of product.Am ordering, instead, a smaller cordless version in another brand, and will keep on trying until I find the one that helps dispel the pain that wakes me up in the middle of the night."
287709,1,PIECE OF JUNK,Lousy piece of junk. NO range. My old Panasonic (handset got rained on) had a good 1/4 mile range. This won't go 100 feet. Ringer volume does not adjust. And today I picked it up after a week in the cradle and it went dead in 15 minutes. At least now I get to buy a new phone. I had this for five months and will not miss it.
287729,1,GE model # 27930ge3-p cordless phone,"The model # 27930ge3-p cordless phone i purchased at k-mart in london ky just over a year ago quit working whenever i hit the talk button i get 3 beeps but no dial tone. I tried to contact GE about my prob. but that was impossible. They make you go thru some outfit called Thompsons who handles their phone products for them and you can't get thru this outfits voice mail layers to speak with a real person. After spending 15 min working my way thru their automated voice system, it finally instructed me that if I had the phone over a year it was out of warrenty and if it had quit working i should get rid of it and buy a new one. As far as I am concerned GE does not have any customer support for their phones."
287762,1,Greenwood disappoints,"The plot drags with Holmes doing little but offering to ""give much to know..."" something or other. There is little of his deductive mind on display and to add to this, the setting is consistantly dreary and gray. Holmes catches no one in a lie, deduces nothing from their clothing, hands or dialect, learns little from research late in the game and watches three victims die. Your reward for sticking the book out is a subtle screed as to the hard life women had and why they need abortion on demand. Holmes ends by agreeing with Watson they're glad they're not women!May I recommend Larry Millet for a superior Holmes character that stays true to his/A. Doyle's historic period."
287787,1,FAKE BAG!!!,THIS IS FAKE BAG!! I WAS RETURNED THIS BAG AND HORRIBLE HIGH INTERNATIONAL RETURN COST!!
287797,1,I did not receive my item so far,I did not receive my item so far. For this reason I can not evaluate the product but the vendor is the worse I've been know. I recommend AMAZON exclude NORTHERN TOOLS as AMAZON supplier.
287900,1,Huge disappointment,"I'm a huge fun of P.E. I've been listing to them for years but I'm not really digging this live album, the live band it's actually killing all the classics I miss the old P.E. live shows, I'm not digging the P.E. Band. If you are a true fan get it like I did but if you're checking P.E. for the first time, stay away from this record."
287920,1,battery dies,"we have replaced 3 batteries in this keyless entry doorlock 3 times in less than 3 months. It is in a 2nd home, so does not get everyday use, yet something is using up the battery power. I LOVED this product,,until the battery issue. I am going to see if the store will exchange it,, and try again. If problem continues, I will go back to old regular keyed door lock."
288053,1,Another sad day for Hollyweird,"Just finished watching and I can tell you that nothing good came of it. An all over the place movie filled with vularity, drugs, lesbianism and profanity. I'm going to make this point. Once again hollywood outdid itself in it's evil and corrupt industry. I can't believe they hired a 16yr old Dakota Fanning to play a 16yr old Cherrie Currie. And we as the audience got to see her do pretty much everything outside of sex with a man,that Currie did with the Runaways! Have we as a society not learned any lessons yet with these child actors? Are we that hungry for entertainment that we would watch 16 yr old Dakota Fanning undress herself in every kind of way? Who's gonna be there when Dakota falls apart and turns into a druggie? I couldn't believe it when I looked it up and found out that Dakota will be turning 17 on Feb 23, 2011! For her to play a role like that is demonic. She is only a kid and I pray God Blesses her!"
288151,1,Another Head-in-the -sand Book,"I don't know why these liberal moonbats keep writing these kind of ""If no one came, there would be no wars"" rants. These left wing types must get use to young bright eyes looking up to them in their protected classrooms and various ""safe"" speaking engagements and actually start thinking that they have the answers. Forget that history is full of violence, and that many evil idealogues started out by telling the ""people"" that peace would prevail if only they would follow that leader. Hundreds of millions have died following such leaders. Be very leary of snake oil salesmen like this author. He has no truths and his advice is dangerous."
288161,1,Uninspired,"I had the opportunity to listen to this after one of my friends bought it, and let me just say that i'm happy I didn't waste my money on this mess. Though Eminem has never been one of my favorite rappers, I own all of his previous albums and I think that he is a talented artist. However, I feel that ""Encore"" is a very poor and uninspired album. Most of the songs sound very similar and Eminem rhymes without any emotion in his voice. The only decent songs on the album are ""Just Lose It"", ""Mosh"", and ""Never Enough"". However, none of those met my expectations. The rest of the album is garbage filler like ""Puke"", another stupid song about his ex-wife. If you want an Eminem album, then just go and buy any of his previous releases, but leave ""Encore"" on the shelf."
288251,1,A Lot of Information - poorly organized!,Published in 2005 I thought there would be some color photos. Nope! And no index either which makes it real difficult to find anything. disappointing and frustrating to use.
288262,1,What is wrong with people,"So I tried getting ahold of the seller since the phone didn't work with my phone plan. Since the seller ignored me, I gave the rip off phone to somebody with a TMobile plan only to find out that the phone doesn't work at all. PLEASE do not get ripped off by this seller!!"
288381,1,Unless you own stock in a battery factory...,"The camera looks great and I expected it to operate wonderfully since I had owned Kodak Easyshare's before. BUT....it has been terrible. I cannot get a battery that will keep it running. I have spent money on top of the line batteries, rechargeable units, etc. Nothing. I have resorted to the very expensive lithium batteries, as I was able to use the camera over a few day span using them. But straight from the package into the camera, the green light came on...and then all red. Now I see all red. Hate it, hate it, hate it...and hate Kodak for being so unwilling to acknowledge this problem and help its customers. They have made me jump over mountains and through hoops trying to get help-but since it was a gift, and I have no receipt, they don't deal with me. This stinks!"
288466,1,Kodak easyshare,"Camera worked great for us for 6 months. Easy to use, decent pictures and good software. The battery life was fine for our use. It quit working at six months and would no longer focus and is now useless. For a six month disposable camera its a little expensive."
288541,1,Not Burroughs' best.,"This book is the worst of all the Burroughs books I have read. It is beyond reproach that African Americans are portrayed as total morons as Hollywood portrayed them when the Borroughs wrote the book. It is however reprehensible to think about all the anti-semetic slurs in the book. It will probably be argued that like in Shakespere's time, he had to portray Jews as villains, but this book was written in the 1920's. Anyone could have been the villain but Burroughs goes out of his way to remind the reader of the villains ethnicity by saying basically, this is what to expect of Jews. Did Burroughs ever know any blacks or Jews? If he did, he certainly would not have portrayed them this way. It was not published during his lifetime probably for this reason. Why publish it now? For a fast buck."
288582,1,Surprised I didn't like it.,"I bought Fannie Flagg's other books. I'm glad I got this from the library. However, I am eagely waiting for her next book."
288628,1,"Leaks, and hard to sip from","I found that more liquid came out of the sides and the vent hole than came out of the sipping mechanism. My son would suck on it, but the mechanism was so tight that the liquid would turn foamy. Bad for the tummy, frustrating, and makes a big mess."
288678,1,A Children's Movie With Racist Comments,"This movie, while entertaining, has a racist theme. The phrase ""cracker lackin"" is uttered again and again. Can you imagine the contoversy, if this were an equivilent racial slur against black, or any non-white race of people? I suppose that ""cracker lackin"" means ""a place without white people,"" because of the context that it is used in. Because of its repeated use, I have deducted two stars. I deducted one more because the movie was not as entertaining as the original."
288690,1,Aliens trying to act human.,"I loved Edith Wharton's THE HOUSE OF MIRTH, I know the novel well, and was really disappointed in this movie.It wasn't so true to the book--which I understand is often the case in novel adaptations--but there were some fundamental differences in the character's behaviors.Furthermore, the casting and the acting was terrible. It was like watching either a couple of aliens trying to act human, or horrific over-acting as if it were the opening of a porno movie.I like Gillian Anderson very much in the X-Files, and I've liked her in other things. This role, she was not right for--not at all. And she didn't have any of the calm, cool natural that Lily Bart did.Disappointment :-("
288769,1,disappointed,I am also returning the spacemaker for the second time. It quit playing CD's as others have stated. I loved this feature in the kitchen. Disappointed in the GE label.
288794,1,Try it before you buy it!!,This game could have been made way better. Im consistantly switching from the wii remote to the nunchuck and back and forth. A few of the games take time to get use to how to do them. Then the fact that your score doesn't show against your other wii's is disappointing...and you can't win at swimming at all that one was so confusing. Everyone told me it was so much fun so I bought it without trying it...TRY IT!!! I would have bought mario kart instead!!
288843,1,Expensive and low quality or quality control,We received these today and when I saw my wife she was sewing one sock because it had a hole about the size of a dime. That is ridiculous for socks that cost this much.We will have to see if they last since they were sewn now.I would not order again and I do realize that there are problems with anything.
288964,1,Can I get a refund?,I was really hoping that this product would work as I was having lower back pain. Long story short it didn't work. I went from having pain while walking to crawling around like a dog while still having pain. I couldn't recommend this to anyone.
289002,1,What a piece of CRAP!,"I payed $119.00 for this VCR. Used it four times in seven months.All of a sudden one day I turned it on to use and no power.I then sent it back to the JVC service center in Aurora Ill. Recieved a servic request on Feb.23. They never asked sent me an estimate of asked me if I wanted them to fix it. Didn't hear anything for a month, so on March 6, 2005 I decided to go online to see the status of my repair. There I found they listed my VCR as ""refused repair"" I never refused anything. Then looked to see the estimate to fix it was more than I paid for it. $122.00.Don't buy JVC products they rip you off with there ridiculous repair costs. Plus False communication between customer and service center. What a piece of CRAP!"
289023,1,Tighten How?,"I could not make these skewers work for my application. I tried to use these skewers to secure a single-speed rear wheel to a vintage frame. Single-speed bikes require the chain to be tightened periodically as the chain wears. These skewers do not allow for the user to secure the rear wheel to a frame with horizontal or semi-horizontal drop-ins. I could not generate the compression necessary to secure the wheel to the frame. Conventional quick releases work better because after you tighten them, the lever allows for you to generate extra compression. Bolted axles are still the best."
289074,1,Awful,The low price of this collection of garbage does not dull the sting of having spent that money. The games are no better than old DOS games. Some did not even run on Windows ME. Stay away from this product.
289091,1,Dull account of a fascinating life,"This biography of L.M. Montgomery, marketed towards young adults, has nothing new to offer. It was mostly a rehash of Montgomery's own memoirs, titled ""The Alpine Path"". Plus, there was surprisingly little information about Montgomery's years after she published Anne. Perhaps it would have been at least an average bio if the author had illustrated some of Montgomery's experiences or parts of her life, but he really didn't even attempt to do that, with the exception of parts of some of her minor romances. If you are looking for a good L.M. Montgomery biography, try ""The Alpine Path"" or her journals to hear about Montgomery in her own words."
289107,1,dont buy,The flat iron Barely got warm. I sent it back. I purchased a Remington Keratin Therapy iron instead. It's great!
289109,1,Switch (Bluff),"Great movie- but the quality is unbelievably poor, hardly watchable. It is available in DVD quality in Italian, but without subtitles. This DVD looks more like a VHS-rip, only quality is simply dreadful"
289235,1,Did not live up to the hype,"I had this book on my wishlist for several months before I took the plunge and spent nearly $20 on it. I wish I had not. This book feels like it was written by a high school girl after having read other paranormal romance novels. She offers no new ideas and as a matter of fact, uses Laurell K. Hamilton's 'ardeur' plot device by having one of the main characters 'heal' with sex. The characters are hollow and the author offers little to no character development.In addition, the editing is absolutely terrible. As a previous reviewer stated, I was itching for a red pen to correct my copy of this story.I would recommend either the first few Antita Blake novels by Laurell K. Hamilton or Mooncalled by Patricia Briggs. Those novels offer everything this one lacks, original plotlines and likeable characters with compelling stories."
289252,1,Broke on me in 1 months time!!!!!!!!!!,"Man when I first got this DVD player I thought I got a killer deal. It looked nice, played well had great sound etc...Well I got it March 20th and last night (April 27) it BROKE! What a P.O.S!!!!!! I am NEVER buying Philips again.I am going to contact Amazon so see if I have any options on exchanging it.-Not Happy!"
289269,1,Dead after 5 months!,"I am not the sort of person to be overly picky about picture or sound quality. All I ask is that it works! And not only did this piece of junk die on me after only 5 months, but the Philips warranty and customer service are so terrible that I will never buy another Philips product again."
289286,1,BEWARE!,DO NOT BUY THIS DVD PLAYER! Its crap I had mine for three weeks THREE WEEKS and now its dead.
289341,1,soooo disappointing,"Cool effects do not a cool movie make! A very thinly threaded plot of cobbled together scenes that might have developed into something engaging if not treated so superficially. The 'fairy forest and the great white stag'? How about an inkling of how this helps Snow White understand her destiny and her choices? Awakened by True Love's first kiss? There is no emotional connection evident between SW and the Huntsman or SW and William or anyone else that would make you think she'd ever be revived. Really, really glad I didn't pay to see this in a theater."
289371,1,not worth it,"I enjoyed the special effects, but the plot and acting was horrible. The only reason I finished it was because I paid for the rental."
289375,1,Terrible..just terrible,"This movie is poorly written, acting is only so-so. My wife was wanting to see this badly and she fell asleep 1/2 way through."
289388,1,Save Your Money,"The book that these flash cards were based on, ""A Whack on the Side of the Head"" is great book on problem solving and creativity. These cards are not. Save your money or spend it on another book on the topic from another author, such as ""Conceptual Blockbusting - A Guide to Better Ideas""."
289396,1,Can't compare with Norelco,"Compared with Norelco's, the Panasonic shaver was disappointing:1. The shaves are not as close on men with medium beards2. As a stiff foil shaver, it does not contour around bony areas, such as the chin, as well as the floating, rotating heads on the Norelco.3. The shaver leaves the stubbles of your beard in your sink, making for a messy daily clean-up.I had high expectations with Panasonic's claim of such high RPM's of blade movement. Unfortunately, the quality of the shave is limited by the foil design. Even higher RPM's would not fix its weaknesses."
289407,1,terrible,"The websight you need to access for this ""interactive"" is shut down, and Macmillan refuses to return my calls or emails; yet the book is still being sold.What a joke!I will NEVER buy another Sam's Publishing/Waite Group book again."
289420,1,Should have known better (the you get what you pay for part),"Mask: The size and visibility are okay, but this mask does not seal at all and leaks massive amounts of water. The skirt material is not flexible enough to provide proper seal.Fins: Solid plastic blades without any flex. Very low heels do not keep fins safely in place.Snorkel: No problems."
289435,1,Preachy?,"Interesting, but rather preachy. I think it's a well written description of a 'coming of age' of a sorts..."
289491,1,Eh...,This is not for everyone. I personally don't mind goth or industrial music so some of the tracks were interesting and I liked them. Others are terrible and should never have even been attempted. I could go either way on this album. (The cover of Rhinoceros should NEVER have been done. It's too beautiful a song to butcher like that.)
289571,1,Horrible phone: freezes up all the time,"This is just a horrible phone; it freezes up all the time, whether you are entering someone's number or you are checking email. Even a reset doesn't work -- I have to pull the battery out to reset. I can't change the options of one of the email accounts I created and can't delete it. There are so many other such gotchas -- I will never buy a Windows Mobile phone again and highly recommend against a Blackjack."
289669,1,Way too long,"This album could have been a classic if Billy Corgan had reigned it in to 40 - 50 minutes, instead of the 73 minute drone here. There are moments of real beauty and great atmosphere, but by the end of it I just wanted it to stop. Please, make it stop!I've heard that their next album is going to be another double disk like ""Mellon Collie."" Doesn't this guy ever shut up?"
289720,1,Disappointment plus!,"After having read The Book of Words trilogy and A Cavern of Black Ice, I could not wait for the next installment, so I enthusiastically picked up The Barbed Coil, expecting the high level of wit and action as displayed in J.V Jones first trilogy and A Cavern of Black Ice, which was a masterpiece. However I was bitterly disappointed! The character of Tessa does not invoke intrigue or sympathy, and doesn't compare to previous brilliant J.V Jones characters such as Jack, Raif, Melliandra etc.Tessa's transition from her world to that of Bay'Zell is lethargically explained, with Tessa simply accepting this transition, without so much as a second glance back. The story meanders along providing the reader with little interest. However, I willed myself through the book, promising myself that it would get better! It didn't!"
289748,1,after you've rented everything else in the video store...,"Prior reviews are accurate. But if you're hungry for everything you can find on either of these stars, there's a little more here: Some choreography / behind-the-scenes where a young Jackie is demonstrating kung-fu with a cigarette in his mouth; and an interview with a somewhat self-inflated Bruce. And some good movie highlights. Quality is poor but some footage is unique. If you're looking for a second video on two-for-one day at the video store, this might fit."
289814,1,Who pays this man to write books,"Ekedahls books are not good books to learn programming. They are books that teach how to type code in the code windows and run and ""Look how well I can tell you to write a program"". Unfortunately you do not learn how to prorgam. You are lost and confused and looking at your classmate asking if they understand the class.For a beginner's book get Diane Zak's, It will save u time and money, stress, anger and hatred towards him."
289872,1,"Beware, No Warranty","Beware of Monroe Shock absorbers. These shocks, As well as all Max-Air shocks, come with NO WARRANTY from Monroe. Make sure you have your auto parts store give you a written and signed warranty from the store. Customer service dept at Monroe is of no help even though various auto parts stores list a ""limited Monroe lifetime warranty""."
289881,1,To Many Glitches,"Do not get this. The gameplay is terrible, the graphics are ok but, most of the enemies are blacked out siliouttes. This game is ungodly hard and frusturating. You get what its worth ..."
289883,1,Biased and broad,"As others have stated, this book is very broad on all topics. It's and introduction to psychology book, which is why I am very dissapointed to be using it at this level! I felt some of the studies they refference may have been warped, to sound how they wanted it to sound. I was also extremely dissapointed with how poorly they covered controversial topics. The book was obviously biased (see the abortion chapter)and didn't teach me anything I didn't already know. It comes with a cd, which I couldn't get to work on any of my computers.This would be a good book for intro Psych classes."
289939,1,back it goes...,"Attention Amazon shoppers: DO NOT MAKE MY MISTAKE! Don't buy this thing thinking it might actually work in some way. Wireless print server? Ha! A pencil is a more efficient and reliable peripheral than this piece of trash.Terrible documentation, ineffectual tech support, no support pages to speak of.This is pure junk. Releasing this thing was a great idea, Linksys/Cisco..."
289979,1,Not useful at all,"I used this book in a graduate level course and it is sad that even in the 6th edition in 2008, this book continues to be outdated and out of sync with real world staffing. Many times, I found it hard to follow and the structure is odd. I agree with some of the other reviews that this book needs to be more updated with real world ideas, experiences and strategies."
289993,1,HORRIBLE!,"So after years of being told how great this book was, I finally borrowed it from a friend. Big mistake!!! This has to be one of, if not THE worst book I've ever read. When I was done, I scratched my head thinking, this cannot be the same book everyone raved about. I wanted to throw it down after just a few chapters but kept reading thinking it would get better... it didn't. There was no growth at all in Winter; she was the same dummy from beginning to the end. I made myself finish, thinking it would get better but it never did. I was left wondering if I actually read the wrong book. I even went back to 3 different people that told me this book was 'excellent' and asked what they thought was excellent about it... blank stares; no one really could answer. They had all read the book 10yrs ago and couldn't remember anything about it. I would suggest re-reading this book now that they're all over 30 and rate it again, but in my opinion, that would just be plain torture."
290028,1,cannot get software to run,"I had written a previous review about being unable to install the software with any version of directx higher than version 7. As it turns out, their customer service rep told me how to get past the directx error that would prevent installation. After that however, the program would not run. Have been communicating with the customer rep for several days. According to the info on the jewelcase, ATI Rage Pro chipsets, (what I'm running), are supported. Still the program will not run. Customer service has tried to get it to run, and they did reply promptly, but at this time I can only give this program 1 star, as IMO, a well written program should not fail to run when it's requirements are met. This program did run at one time on my computer, the only two things that have changed on my machine is the Directx version, and the video,(turned off the integrated graphics and installed a video card). It is a good program, to bad it will no longer run."
290109,1,He can't be associated with the Beasties?,"As I put this CD in my player I started to groove to the first track ""Push the Button"". After that opening track I was punished with about 20 more boring unoriginal tracks. If he is going to put a sticker on his CD saying he is a keyboardist for the Beastie Boys he better bring a little more funk and a lot less, um well,... boring stuff He is not a funky monkey!"
290155,1,Another Recycled Advocacy Polemic,"This appears to be a compilation of papers that Mr. Thornton previously wrote on behalf of his former employer, Greenpeace. So, if you are still curious, save your money and just browse the Greenpeace web site. Like the original papers, this book is an advocacy piece that does not address or reference contrary data or interpretations. Apply the precautionary principle in digesting Mr. Thornton's ideas."
290164,1,"Buyer Beware of ""Dr."" David Jernigan and his claims...","This guy, Dr. David Jernigan, advertises like a new age snake oil salesman. I wouldn't put my health in the hands of a multi-level marketer who leads people to believe he is a Medical Doctor...he is not and MD, he is a chiropractor making and selling his own products. When his self made expensive ""products"" fail very seriously ill lyme patients, he blames them, accusing them of being negative and blaming them for their lack of spirituality. Beware of his sales people as ""cured"" patients.He also lurks on lyme disease patient forums to see what they say about his treatments/products and when they are not getting well, again he blames them. Don't fall for this - there are plenty of reputable alternatives to treat chronic lyme disease.[...]"
290225,1,Did Carl Hiaasen really write this?,I find it hard to believe the same writer who wrote the crisp and hilarious Sick Puppy wrote this book. There are elements of the amusing moments and eccentric characters I known and loved from his previous books but I found myself rushing to the end not because I wanted to see how it all worked out but to put an end to the book and move on to something else ... anything else. I admire his ambitions of moving to different areas of his writing but this book was not even close to his best work. The story was pretty obvious without any truly tense moments. One thing I admire about his books is his way or wrapping everything up in the end through creative means but this books ending was seen coming almost from chapter two. It is almost as if someone else wrote the book while he was out on sick leave. I hope he gets well soon.
290306,1,Jane Austen series; Misrepresentation of closed caption,"All six DVD's in the Jane Austen Collection [Sensibility / Emma / Persuasion / Mansfield Park / Pride and Prejucice /and Northanger Abbey] have closed caption [cc] and [subtitles are in English] printed on their jackets. When played, not one of the six DVD,s have closed caption on the disk itself. I and millions of people depend on closed caption in order to view a movie. Why are companies allowed to get away with these discrepancies? This is a frustrating problem for the deaf and the hard of hearing. Can anything be done with these discrepancies?I am very pleased with being a customer of Amazon.com. When I contacted Amazon.com and stated the problem with the disks, they picked up the Jane Austen Collection the next day and I am getting a full refund. You can't beat service like that."
290310,1,Horrible acting,I've only watched one of these. I can't even remember which one. It did not leave much on an impression. The acting is horrible. It was a waste of money.
290337,1,Someone published this?,"This book is horribly written. Tayari Jones seems more concerned with trying to write ebonics onto paper than with creative writing. The story itself is pretty weak, and the suggestion at the end that the man convicted(with DNA evidence for at least 3 of the murders) for the Atlanta slayings is really innocent because the killer HAD to be white, is just plain revolting. Clayton State University made this required reading for ENG1101 classes, but even so, my own english teacher along with many others cancelled the assignment after looking the book over. This is because of it's terrible writing style, lack of creativity, misuse of language, and the fact that it just plain has nothing to offer someone learning ENGLISH. Multiple racist comments are made throughout the book against caucasians, even though in the story there is absolutely no reason for it and in truth there aren't even any caucasian characters in the story. Filth."
290340,1,i tried,"i tried, i wanted to like this. as far as the genre goes, these guys are probably one of the better acts, but lets face it, the genre is rather limited and it doesnt take much to get noticed. the rhythms are a bit mechanical and stale, and the vocal chops of these two gentleman consdierably lack in the way of 'cantorial soul'. if you like rap music and want something anti-gangster/pro-rebbe, this might be for you. otherwise, there are multiple other jewish music acts who are far more interesting/danceable/entertaining."
290368,1,Addresses are wrong,"I'm a distribution manager for a newspaper and I thought that this program would be handy. I used the feature that grabs addresses from a spreadsheet and imputs them into the map. When I double checked the locations, I noticed that more than half of them were wrong. They are often within a few blocks, but that makes it difficult when you are trying to plan a route. I must say though, that the route planner, when it works, is very nice."
290390,1,Disappointed,"After reading French Quarter, I was excited after buying this book by Stella Cameron. I wish I had read the reviews before making the purchase--what a disappointment! The plot was disjointed and the dialogue between characters was choppy and adolescent. I'm about three-quarters of the way through the book and just cannot finish it."
290406,1,Betrayal of the Faith,"0 stars, or less if possible. Don't be fooled by all the awards given to McBrien by ""the world."" This work does not teach the Catholic faith, but betrays it, presenting matters of truth as mere opinion and promoting the idea that those who contradict Church teaching and Scripture itself are somehow still good Catholics. McBrien's work is a major contributor to the destruction of the faith among university students at so-called Catholic colleges today, and he does not deserve one dime from you or anyone else. To him, Catholicism is whatever the modernist or post-modernist American academic would like it to be. If you have to use this book for a class, get it from a library instead (sorry Amazon)."
290413,1,Victorian Chic is Shabby,"This is the book for those who believe that Victorian style is described best in the Shabby Chic manner. If white is your color and if Victorian means old lace, roses, vintage pottery, tarnished silverplate, and quilts, you will love this book. Personally, I like my Victorian more in the stle of the Grand Epoch. Give me rich jewel tones, heavy furniture, a plethora of good silver, beautiful china, heavy draperies and everything over the top. If you agree with my taste, I fear you will find this book insipid and worse. Yet, as the French say, Vive le difference!"
290429,1,purple prose alert,"I expected to love this book. The cover art was lovely, the blurb on the back interesting and compelling, the reviews mostly glowing. I reread parts of it in the hope I'd suddenly see what so many others see in it...but that failed. So, with apologies, because I don't like to put down Australian fantasy authors, I have to say that this book contains some of the purplest prose I can remember reading. And one sentence actually made me laugh aloud - not a good thing in a passage which is intended to be anything but humorous. I'll quote it here. If you like it, read the book. If you laugh, don't.""Caught between the mortar of daily drudgery and the pestle of pain, life went grinding on.""It even uses alliteration, as if the metaphor wasn't strained enough.On the other hand, it's always good to smile, right?"
290550,1,Worst piece of junk I ever boughtl,"After a few weeks coffee started spilling over the thermal cafe onto the counter.Black and Decker replaced that one. In three weeks the same thing happened. I like Black and Decker, but I would never by another coffee maker, made by them."
290570,1,Liked Lights but terrible knocking noise,"After reading several other reviews....there is a common theme...we love the extras to the monitor (light show, music, etc..) but the constant knocking noise is ANNOYING!!! Am returning to toysrus and going to try one rated better."
290605,1,great in theory - not in reality,"I purchased this on 9/13/10. I loved it. Easy to use, easy to clean, and makes a great mug of coffee. However, after using it 1x - 2x a day since purchase, it stopped working on 12/15/10. I have contacted Black and Decker, but am very disappointed in the quality."
290657,1,Disappointing...,"I bought this thing having read a few of the popular positive reviews here but having actually used it I have to say I'm very disappointed. First of all it takes too long. The light goes off and you think your coffees done - think again, the water will still come out for another 2-3 minutes. Secondly, the design is bad...The last few oz. of water are puffed through with these great gasps that has the affect of blasting your grounds all over the place. The top where the water comes out gets completely saturated with grounds and has to be cleaned every time."
290667,1,Gizmo/Shmizmo,I think this item is a piece of garbage! You have to putz around with it just to get it to line up on your can and even though it says you can use just one hand don't believe it! When it does open your can it leaves the lid with dangerously jagged edges and the user must use extreme caution while handling the lid---this is not an item for children to use even under supervision. I wind up using my cheap hand opener just to finish the job---save your money! Black and Decker should have devoted more time to this one while in the planning stages!
290706,1,coffee everywhere,"This grinder does what it is supposed to do however it is loud, it jumps around and spews coffee all over the place. Its very messy to use and for that reason I doubt I will be using it much. This appliance is most likely a candidate for the church rummage sale next fall."
290710,1,"Hum, I wonder what I am not seeing here","I hate to be so negative, I am normaly very forgiving, but this is the worst grinder ever.- It is loud (but what grinder isnt)- The beans have trouble getting down into the blades for grinding (beans stored in freezer tend to stick together a little)- The seals on the lids easily allow grinds to fly out all over- Grinds collect on exit into the holder and they stick to the outside of the holder- ...My recommendation: TRY BEFORE YOU BUY!"
290726,1,Failed to Hypnotize,"I've been a SOAD fan for years, ever since I saw the sugar video in 7th grade....I'm now 2 years into college and I have noticed that System has kind of lost it. Mesmerize was a pretty good release, there are a lot of sing along choruses, but there are enough harder songs to keep me listening. Now for Hypnotize....this cd is not top notch SOAD. I realize that over the years they have gotten more and more mainstream. Every song on here sounds like it could be a single, except for, my fav, ""vicinity of Obscenity."" This song is so weird, its the only reasong I'm going to keep this cd. So if you've been living in a hole for the past, almost, 10 years and you haven't heard SOAD, stick with their 1st and Toxicity, you won't be disappointed."
290727,1,"All filler, no Killer......","These guys are capable of much better. Although Darron can't sing, mesmerize was still a good album in my opinion. This album is just kind of there, it does not really grab you. I'm sure if I listened enough times there might be something that grabs me, but what a waste of time, as is with this album."
290761,1,Mis-representaion of product,"The product is advertised as a Sony Product ""Sony projector lamp LMP-P201 when in fact it is a replacement lamp FOR a Sony Projector re manufacturedby other than Sony."
290813,1,Worked great and then quit!,"I have purchased two of these, one for an office computer and another for an older laptop, both of which had lost their onboard ethernet. They worked great, but both have quit in less than a year. I am trying another brand next time."
290931,1,Not the greatest,"It doesn't do the best job ever of capturing your attention in the beginning, and I felt the whole Hot Seat deal was overkill. Not really one of Spinelli's greater ones. I wouldn't tell anyone to not buy it, but I wouldn't heartily recommend it. Stargirl kind of seemed to good to be true, and I like characters that are very flawed instead of perfectly perfect ones. Perfect just seems a little one-dimensional. There were lots of details in it that I enjoyed, though, especially the descriptions of the desert. If I could give half stars, I would give it 2 1/2 instead of just 2."
290997,1,"Looks nice, but its only usb 1.1","I purchased this to share a usb drive between two computers. Unfortunatly this no where on the packaging materials does this say what usb specs it supports. I had to find out the hard way its only USB 1.1, so its pretty much useless junk since its way to slow, and way over priced. You can buy and have shipped usb 1.1 switching units for less than $10 on ebay. So why would anyone spend the MSRP of $59 on a unit like this. All around its not worth the money, and the manufacturer should have the guts to put the specs on there packaging materials. If they don't, then its not worth buying. I took mine back for a refund the next day."
291054,1,DVD not good quality,We've seen this movie in the past and love the movie. But the quality of this particular DVD was terrible!
291056,1,Too Much Money for so Little a Book,"As a collector of Toy books I thought ""elements of Pop Ups"" should be in my collection.... save your money for the real books, even at the discounted price of $28 dollars I would do better tearing up much cheaper books and learning from them than from this. We that like the Pop ups are supposed to be brothers but this is an outrageous price for so little work."
291180,1,Disappointed highly,"No doubt the author knows subject matter. Before releasing this book, some one should have asked several people who dont know asp.net to actually use the book and learn form it by following step by step in each of the chapters to the 'T', they would have found out that they cannot do it.Too many errors, and missing steps. This is not a step by step book, it should be called ""Missing steps book"", it is not for some one who does not already know asp.net; then again if you already know why would you want to get this book anyway."
291295,1,Fix It and Dump It!!!,Quite a disappointment. Received this as a gift last Christmas and after trying over a dozen recipes I'm convinced of the following: 1) the book is the worst 2) recipes not taste tested and 3) not worth the time to make any of this recipes.I've had to dump most of the food after cooking. Save your money and buy another crockpot cookbook!!
291355,1,WTF.,"I was so excited about these and when I finally got it the cards and booklet were all bent up, I ordered a NEW one too. NOT HAPPY."
291433,1,Cheap plastic on Polder fork oozes a sticky chemical,"This fork worked at first. But after about a year of infrequent and careful use, the gray plastic body oozed a sticky chemical that made it useless. It would not wash off with soap and water. And when we tried to clean it with solvent, the cooking legend on the back of the fork came off.As a result of this bad experience with their defective material, I will not be buying any other products from Polder."
291449,1,I'm returning it.,The video quality is nowhere near what I expected and I am disapointed enough to return it.Its got a good swivel and thats about it; the content that comes with it is so-so and the headset is pretty minimal.
291468,1,the ultimate guide to tax havens,"This book is very thin on information and of low quality, although the book gives a list of every tax haven I knew of and some I didn't.The amount of information on them is appalling the pages are mostly white space, and photos are non exsistent. The page on panama and Central America had only a link to a web site, while most others had such brief information it was not worth reading some of the pages.The book looks like it is compiled of copy and pasting of the internet and brief knowledge by the author anyone can find more information about these tax havens on the internet than this book provides.This book is definitely not worth the money due to the lack information provided on some of these tax havens."
291473,1,Doesn't work with a ps2/usb adapter,"I bought this to go through a ps2/usb adapter into my pc, and it doesn't even read as a normal ps2 gamepad. I even bought a brand new adapter thinking it was my old one starting to give out; and still got no improvement."
291477,1,"Extremely superficial, overpriced guide","One would hope for something a bit out of the ordinary from the ""Lonely Planet"" people, but this book is, if anything, less helpful than conventional travel guides. It's very short and extremely superficial, and certainly not worth the money."
291481,1,Sagebrush,Story lacked detail. It contained good life lessons on learning from nature. I felt the story was too spread out over the time period and pieces seemed to be missing
291506,1,Subject Ewwww....,I cannot believe I wasted 2.99 to rent this movie. It is the kind that Mystery Science Theater 3000 used to make fun of. But I tried to watch it without their witty comments. I want my money back!!!!
291538,1,YOU DO NOT GET WHAT IS PICTURED,"I ordered this to connect my camera to my telescope. The version I received does not look anything like the picture, frankly I am afraid to connect it to my camera. It does not have the stops T-mounts usually have to prevent it from rotating in the Camera mount (meaning that when you attach the camera, if the camera begins to rotate under its own weight, it can disconnect and you camera will crash to the floor. The T- mount I received it is extemely thin and flimsy unlike the robust one pictured in the ad. It will cost me more in time taking it to the post office and paying to return it, I might as well dump it in the garbage. All my experiences with Adorama prior to this point have been positive, hope this is not signs of the way the company is heading."
291553,1,I think Solomon's taking Dilbert a little too seriously ...,"Thank you, Solomon, for providing a Freudian Ego complex for what Scott Adams is ""really"" saying.Did Garfield have to deal with this criticism 15 years ago (I mean really -- do all cats really like lasanga)?I don't object Solomon writing this book. I'm just very sad he missed a golden opportunity to fight fire with fire ... why not create a cartoon character who ""chose"" to write this book, criticizing Dilbert for his work habits? I kept reading this book because I could imagine a caricature of Solomon steaming in my face these laments ... and THAT was very entertaining !!"
291575,1,Behavior Management,I originally purchased this for a class. It is not very user friendly and very dry to read. It is not a book I use as a resource ever.
291615,1,Where is it????,Little hard to write a review of this product since I never received it. I have notified Amazon with no luck. Don't know what I have to do to either get my money back or get the product. Bad Customer service.
291669,1,"Self-aggrandizing oral ""history""","This book is a mildly interesting instance of radical history being rewritten using the interview format. If you believed everything you read in this book you'd have to think that Murray Bookchin was (or at least should have been) the pivotal character in the last 50 years of radical history, except that nobody knows it besides him because of the raw deals he's always gotten by those who have upstaged him, ignored him, or (like Rachel Carson)not even realized he existed! In other words, because he's rarely been successful at anything, even though he thinks he did all the right things at the right times, it's the world's fault that he's not the biggest radical sensation since the Spanish Revolution.Read this book if you dare. But don't say I didn't warn you."
291828,1,Poorly Written,"90% of the bulk content is unnecessary; very poor quality. Short on substance; very long winded. This is not a science textbook, but a verbose chat. NOT recommended."
291927,1,"More we play, less excited about the toy","As I have played with this toy/puzzle over time, I have developed some criticisms:1) All of the shapes fit onto all of the pegs. It would be nice if the center cut-out was the same as the shape and the peg was that shape too. My daughter really likes the puzzle-aspect of toys and she seems to not have as much interest in this one because it is so easy to put the shapes on the pegs.2) There are 3 triangles, 4 squares, and 5 pentagons. The number of objects also corresponds to the number of sides on each object, but there are 2 rectangles (4-sided figure) and 1 circle (no sides) and this doesn't make sense.Sure, my daughter and I can talk about the names of the shapes and the colors. Other than that the toy is not very engaging. It's durable and wooden, but otherwise lacking interest."
291971,1,Gilad's Split Routine 2,"It's from 1990. Exercise has changed in the past decade and a half. And, there was no way to tell from the box. Not worthy of Gilad or Amazon!"
291980,1,What the hell? You get to substitute crap for what I order and pay for?,I ordered (and paid for) a pair of fifty foot VIDEO cables. In place of what I order and pay for I get a set of 50 foot AUDIO cables. Video IS different than audio. I ordered and paid for it overnight because I needed it today. Now I have to find a physical store that is open Saturdays and has them and drive there. If I have time. Thanks.
291982,1,not recommended,"Don't like me this productThe wire gauge is very thin, and yet not tested and may not work properlyThanks"
291987,1,The good people of New York deserve a better story,"I had high hopes for this book, but in the end it was quite a let down. The writing, which started out very good, would just kind of trail off. Storylines that might have been original were left hanging there... in the end making them unoriginal and boring. I think this could have been a great story about interesting characters in New York (that in and of itself should be interesting) and yet this was a forced series of narratives that had nothing to do with the city. The main character is one you end up having no sympathy for.I had heard the author describe this story as ""a love letter to the city of New York"" and actually it is quite the opposite."
291994,1,Save Your Money,"Just received two of these. Yes, how dumb of me to buy two not knowing much about it. The quality of the casing is really poor. The plastic is very flimsy feeling. The labels were all half-way peeled off upon opening the box. They show signs of just simply being really old.The instructions are written in many languages which is fine, but there are things they fail to tell you. I also ordered the Juice AA 4 pack and 2 of the batteries arrived dead. The charger blinks red with those batteries, but the instructions do not even bother telling you what a blinking red light means.If you go to the juicebattery website, they do not mention this product anywhere. Not even when you search for it. A good chance this is a fly-by discontinued product. The company themselves have not responded to by blinking light question for 3 days now.As with many things, made in CHINA!I got a few more days yet before I need to return them via Amazon's return policy which as we all know, ROCKS!"
292002,1,Good Recycling Material!!,This would make a hilarious movie to watch on Mystery Science Theater 2000 (MST3K)!!! I am only sorry I have to rate this with one star! If you offered less I would have chosen it!
292008,1,"Okay, I get it, but I'm still disappointed","After reading these other reviews--which, thank GOD gave me the anagram solution and a more philsophical explanation of the stupid ending--there isn't much more to say. It's kind of a book you HAVE to read if you loved Rosemary's Baby. But, clearly, Levin should have tightened it up A LOT. The crucifixtion thing was lame at best, Rosemary's daftness at all the odd goings on around her was insipid, even for Rosemary, and while, in general, there were some decent concepts in here, they were presented like a novice hack writer. Yes, it's a story that will stay with me...unfortunately."
292061,1,Does not work with M863,"This does not work with the M863 camera. Do not believe the top review listing compatible products. This is nothing more than a normal mini usb, not the special connector Kodak uses. Wasted my money."
292077,1,Thanks for all the reviews,"After hearing a review of the book on the radio, I was thinking of purchasing this book; however, after reading the reviews - I think I'll pass!!!If it's full of ""LIES"" - no thanks - I'll spend my money on something more worthwhile.My thanks to Mary ""Southie Born"" - I'll believe you before I do Shea - again thanks for your honest input."
292149,1,Antisemitism in the Form of Pseudo Scholarship,"I bought this book thinking that it would be an interesting and informative study of the history of antisemitism. Just by reading the lengthy introduction, it is apparent that this is a very slanted work, whose purpose is to diminish the impact of 2000 years of antisemitism on the Jewish people, presented under the guise of scholarly research. The author is very opinionated, and apparently threatened, in that he wastes no time in criticizing the works of well known researchers in the field. He appears to be a history revisionist in the same school as David Irving.If you are an antisemite, this will be music to your ears. If not, don't waste your money on this thinly veiled excuse for research. It is just another vehicle for conveying hate."
292210,1,Great saw with a flaw,"Powerful saw for heavy duty jobsite cutting, but noticed the one I bought didnt plunge cut very smooth (kind of bogged it down. Found that the blade wasnt square with the plate (I wouldve had to set the saw at about 2 degrees to cut square).I exchanged it for a new one, same problem. Checked out the display model at a local home improvement store, same thing.3 strikes , its out"
292344,1,No longer chugs and toots!!,"This train is really cute and our son was really excited to receive it for his 2nd Birthday in August! Unfortunately by Christmas - just barely over the 90 day warranty - the ""tooting"" sound quit working. We figured the batteries must already by starting to fail because the chugging sound would work occasionally, while the light would pretty constantly come on. We bought 2 new replacement cell batteries, but sadly this was not the fix!! I'm not sure if we just ended up with a faulty train, but it has made us skeptical of purchasing any of the Thomas ""Talking Railway Series"", especially with a limited 90 day warranty. (TOO bad the lifetime warranty wooden Thomas trains used to have no longer exists!)"
292483,1,Great Album but...,"I love the Firesign Theater but I just saw the price tag of $ 224.00 for a NEW copy, I nearly had an economical hemorrhage. Where do these people get off putting such a ridiculous price on this album. Is made of GOLD? Was it from Phil Bergeman's private collection. How careful does one have to be?"
292497,1,"Great, from a mother's point of view...Otherwise, worthless.","This book is the first I have read to hear from the mother's side of an eating disorder. However, it is a bit unrealistic in the world of eating disorders. The daughter developed bulimia, and the mother had enough insight to get her treatment before it was terribly out of control. The whole episode from the ""onset"" to ""recovery"" was less than 2 years. It's great that she is fully recovered, but it is unrealistic in eating disorders that have plagued women for 5, 10, 20 years. Don't expect any enlightenment or answers from this book. Like I said, it is only good to read the mother's viewpoint while this ""eating disorder"" suffered. Look elsewhere for answers on true, long-term eating disorders."
292514,1,Memorex Mini DVD+RW 10 Pack,"I brought this pack along with my new Sony camcoder (DVD408). But unfortunately all (except one) DVD is not working. First I thought, it is the problem with sony camcoder, but its not all working in computer drives also. I tried with 3 different computer. I purchased another DVD from stores, its working fine with camcoder. Please avoid buying this item.Memorex Mini DVD+RW 10 Pack"
292526,1,Do Not Buy This Book For Enjoyment,"If I could possibly rate this book with negative stars - I would have. The book could and should have only 10 pages in it - both authors discuss the points they are trying to make to a very, very slow death. Do not buy this book unless you need it for a college course."
292534,1,very poor packing; bulb arrived crushed,"This replacement sewing bulb was packed by Amazon with two books and no packaging materials (such as airpacks) to protect the bulb. as a result, the bulb arrived crushed. I attempted to obtain a replacement and Amazon informed me that only a refund was available. So, I have to return the bulb for a refund -- and go through the truoble of return shipping -- without being able to get the bulb that my wife needs for her machine without incurring new shipping costs. Crazy...."
292557,1,Horrible,"This is Killa Tay's worst CD. Yeah he found god or whatever but then he spends half this CD complaining about the white man and hatin on whitey, well guess what fool over half your fans were white, and we ain't feelin this one. For a real Tay CD go pick up Mr. Mafioso or Snake Eyes."
292584,1,For Hardy Boys fans only!,"I bought this book because it was in my Amazon recommendationsas a ""legal thriller/mystery"".Don't believe it! This book is very juvenile and the maincharacter could be Frank & Joe Hardy's sleuthing buddy.Stick with John Grisham and David Baldacci. I also recommendGreg Iles, but I won't read any more books in this series."
292649,1,No Aerosmith!,"How can you have a movie about Boston without the city's most famous band on the soundtrack(or in the movie for that matter)? Seriously though, this soundtrack is a bore."
292713,1,Surprisingly God-awful,"Unlike the gripping television documentary that it inspired, this book is dry, obscure, and excruciatingly boring. After being moved by the miniseries a dozen times, I was eager to learn more back-story about the key players in the war and the causes of it. Of course, I thought this book would exceed my expectations. Instead, I was disappointed to discover page after page of needless minutia that makes for the most boring of academic textbooks. There is no information whatsoever about Gavrilo Princip, The Black Hand, The Habsburgs, or anything else that would've made things absorbing and personal. The histories of the belligerents aren't examined, so readers are left to wonder why they're even involved. Most of the time I don't know what the heck this writer is rambling on about or why he's doing it. I give it one star for the collection of excellent photographs alone. The text is only useful as a cure for extreme cases of insomnia."
292750,1,Bla Bla -- Bad Bad,This book of trivia had the most typographical errors of any book I have read in 40 years! The grammar was also questionable on many pages. Even its facts were sometimes way off - Elvis Presley's deceased twin brother's name was Garon! (really Aron)Save your $9.95 and buy a really good trivia book.
292758,1,Waste of money,"This product is a huge waste of money for a few reasons. The pill is mostly whey powder, which is the same thing you drink after your workout. If you are looking to get a boost of all your amino acids, try to eat high protein meals. Like cottage cheese, meats, certain nuts. All high protein whole foods have all your amino acids that you need, and supplementing them with this is not worth it. Do some research, eat more wholesome meals less powders to have better gains."
292767,1,The Fugitive: Season Two v.2,"The Fugitive,s sound track has been changed through out the entier episodes why on earth did paramount cbs change the entier music score? not 2 mention some editing of scenes. keeping somthing to its original format and the magnetic sound strip restoring these old shows they tend to change everything that ruines and spoils .all they needed 2 do is just restor the picture and not touch or change the music score peter rugoles beautiful music score replaced . shame on you paramount cbs"
292768,1,Jerry Subletts opinion,"Updated reviewThe announcement has been made as of February 17, 2009 - Our voices have been heard and it has happened! The original music has been restored to the wonderful Fugitive series starring David Janseen. I am changing this review to ***** (5) stars with anticipation that the original Pete Rugolo music has been restored.Thank you CBS/Paramount!Old reviewI just tried again to watch season two vol one of the fugitive. It was depressing! The person that commented that the music of Peter Ruggulo was half the show was absolutely correct. The music is wiped out clean on this volume. I would only want to say that I am routing for Cbs to return the original music to the fugitive. We will be very grateful."
292857,1,wrong information,This is suppose to be sweet paprika but it is HOT. I runed my Bar-B-Q because I thought this was sweet and used it as I would if it was sweet. the information on the can is misleading.
292903,1,Driver messed up my Mac,"Competing products, such as by Lexar require no driver. That is a good thing since after installing the software for this poorly engineered product my keyboard no longer produced the same characters as I typed. That is, I would type a ""0"" and a ""2"" would appear. Some whole fields would fill with gibberish. After problems with xD cards, a Fuji camera, and this reader, I have grave reservations about this company's products."
292949,1,Garbage,"Who ever wrote the 4 and 5 star reviews of this junk must work for Vick's.It's only purpose is to sell their aroma-Therapy pads, etc.Buy the V1200 electric model. It works well."
292975,1,Vague,"Here's the straight dope on this, despite all the raving. Although this claims to be a breakthrough technique that constitutes more than just meditation, it really is nothing more than an attempted resynthesis of the age old vipassna meditation. This synthesis is hopelessly vague, poorly articulated, and overly verbose without being adequqtely descriptive. I gave it two weeks and found it unexecutable.Even mystical Buddhism is more logical by comparison. If you're the touchy feely type who is satisfied with no more than simple suggestion, then it might be woth the seven bucks, threfore, 2 stars."
292999,1,a disappointment really,"I was disappointed in this one. Gross comes back as Burt and Fred Ward like Kevin Bacon in the first one doesnt come back but some other ones from the first one come back as themselves in this one. remember the annoying kid in the first one who was stuck on top of that shed, well hes back. goes good but its stupid premise, assblaster tremors, not a good name and it wears down the plot that the first one had. bummer"
293015,1,Product is fine but the wrong one!!,"This charger got here fast and in excellent condition i will defiantly be ordering from this seller again. However this charger is for the OLD razor not the new one, this was my mistake not the fault of the seller, just a warning for any one looking for a charger for the new razor this is not the right one!!!"
293024,1,A bit to simple...,"Now, don't get me wrong. The idea of Fight Club is an interesting one. But the idea is the only thing which kept me from giving this novel a sone star rating. The writing just isn't very good. Everything is written in short, choppy sentences and it all seems so simple. Ack...the violence and sex in this book honestly didn't bother me very much, although I can see how it could bother OTHER people. All in all, violence is the tool of a simplistic author...it can be used with great skill and come off with great impact...or just come off...violent."
293054,1,Beware electrical GFI doesn't work!,"I have purchased three of these hairdryers for my home and was very fond of the performance until yesterday. One of the dryers stopped working completely, while another not in the master bathroom outlet. I called our electrician to see if the outlet was having a problem which it was not. While plugging in one of the dryers, a huge flame shot out of the GFI plug and burned completely through the cord. The GFI cord did not work and there was luckily some minimal damange to the walls. Please be careful and make sure you have a GFI outlet installed in your home where you use this product. The electrician believed that the GFI on the hair dryer failed and the cord was risky for electrical fire.Be careful..."
293078,1,the earphone was wrong,"the product is not so good as before was, the earphone was wrong, and dont bring the earphone cover"
293146,1,Don't even spend the penny to buy it used,"I was a devoted fan of Ms Grimes' Richard Jury series and even wrote to her years ago expressing how much I enjoyed her mysteries. However, something has changed over the past few years. It's as if someone else is writing these books, someone who does not know how to craft an interesting, sensible story that can hold readers' attention. The story moves from quantum mechanics to sentient canines to an ending that leaves one stymied. The writing is what the British might call ""twee,"" just too cute and sickeningly self-absorbed.If you're interested in reading any of Ms Grimes' Richard Jury novels, stick to the early ones. They're first-rate mysteries. This book was my last attempt to find once more the author whose books I loved so much."
293215,1,Disappointing product,"This grill does not make a good panini. There is not enough pressure on the upper grill, and it does not make those distinctive panini stripes."
293252,1,Not for big dogs,My Pit Bulls loved this toy! It only lasted about 10 minutes then I heard a crunching sound. It no longer made the chimp sound and the batteries fell out through the damaged hole. This is not big dog tough!
293309,1,THIS IS NOT A MILLIVOLT THERMOSTAT,it is NOT compatible with millivolt systems per Honeywell. try something else. these words are just to make up the extra I need to reach 20
293357,1,Too complicated ...not what I was expecting.,"I was hoping to have a full menu but this book splits it up on different sections, etc. Also, the recipies are way too complicated, nothing you would cook every day, unless you don't work. Waste of money."
293428,1,HORRIBLE,"I have all name brand electronics... all of which were listed in the code number listing for this remote. Panasonic plasma TV, Panasonic audio receiver, Philips DVD Player, and Scientific Atlanta digital cable box. This remote wouldn't operate a single function on ANY of them. Wouldn't even power them on/off. Before you go assuming I just don't know what I'm doing, I've programmed several such remotes, and done extensive work with home, car, and office electronics. I ended up getting a philips remote for much less that controlled all of them with no problem at all."
293441,1,Cheaply made,I bought this because I was looking for something cheap and I guess I got what I paid for it. The back is like a puzzle that I am apparently not intelligent enough to figure out. I ended up throwing it away.
293509,1,Horrible sound quality,"The frequency responce of these earphones is horrible. I imagine it lookes like a curve with an extreme bump in the 2000-3000Hz range. The result is an extremely empty sound. It is hard at times to hear what the person is saying because you can't hear the high frequencies like Ts and Ss. So, you turn it up to hear better and it really hurts because that just increases the volume of what you already hear too much of.Who cares if these are so comfortable if they sound like this? I bought mine when I bought my phone because I wasn't aware that the phone already came wiht a headset. The one with the phone was much, much better."

293551,1,i pod car adaptor,this does not find a station on my radio and it falls out of the cigg light adapter. I tried everything and I bought something else at radio shak but that does not keep the fm channel tuned in either. There is so much static that it interferes with the listening. I have yet to find a product I can listen to my ipod with in the car except just my earphones. Not what i consider safe for car driving
293579,1,Does not work on most PCs do not buy for PC,"Been working for hours to get this thing to work. Patches, blogs etc. On the blogs, found MANY people are having the same problem I am. After a REALLY long install process it just doesn't work. You get an error. After some hunting around online you find a patch. It stops the error, but unfortunately simply NOTHING happens when you click play. reinstalled, etc etc. Its broken. They released a game that just doesn't work on Windows 7 and said it did. Very annoying. I am sure there are some flukes where it has worked but essentially it is a paperweight."
293678,1,Had a few good point BUT.....,"Overall, I think the point of this book was well thought out, I just have a hard time believing it could be put into practice anywhere in the 'real' world. A lot of things are good ideas, however, it just wouldn't work in a 'real' work environment. To me, this book focuses more on 'carrers' than the 'jobs' of life. Which is good, to an extent.I had to read this for my management class and a lot of my classmates (about 90%) shared my dislikes."
293762,1,Couldn't watch it!,I knew within 15 minutes that this was not worth watching. It's trash and that's about all I can say about it. They should pay us to have to watch it.
293775,1,"GREASY, Grimy, and Gross!","This shampoo is beyond gross. After two weeks of daily use (as advertized on the bottle) my hair became so greasy it looked like I hadn't showered in days even directly after blow drying.Simply do a search of others' reviews on this product. You'll quickly find that many others have had similar issues with this shampoo.I must say, though, that during the first week of use, my fine, wavy (and color treated) hair developed a thicker texture that held flat ironing and styling well. But, by the second week it was so greasy I couldn't even get to styling--soooo gross it needed to be washed AGAIN and with something else!I didn't think one's hair could look dirtier/greasier than before shampooing, but Paul Mitchell nailed it on this one. Don't waste your money on this stuff. You can get greasy hair for free! (I'd give this a negative star if it let me.)"
293828,1,Wright Screen Door Closers - Total Garbage,"After trying three different models, they are all junk. I was replacing a leaky 30 year old unit, and unfortunately I threw it out ... which I regret, because it worked much better than any of the 3 Wright replacements. The ""Tap and Go"" version is a handy feature, but these things are such junk it doesn't matter.The ""hydraulic"" or ""pneumatic"" slowing of the door only takes place in the last 25% of the piston stroke. By that time it has slammed into your ass (okay) or your ankle (which hurts like hell and bruised my son in when he had bare feet.Carried by both Home Depot and Lowes, they are complete junk. Not sure what the alternative is ... but avoid Wright!"
293853,1,"Defective snaps, had to return....","Ordered one to see how I would like it but returned it. The lid has four snaps, one on each corner. Of the four, one was detached from the fabric, and another was so tight I could not snap the corner together. I did, however, order and like very much the Rubbermaid three-handle storage chest and the 2-pack nesting bins. I just don't like the design of the window boxes with the snap corners."
294026,1,Dissappointing,"I have so enjoyed Christians & Mona Lisa's tapes on Intuitive Healing, I thought that this would be just as good. After listening to 2 of the CD's I switched them off, they were so full of negative stuff, that someone having a baby for the first time, would be so fearful of the process. I know when having my own first child, I stopped reading the information, simply becasue we are ""wired"" to think the worst, instead of what we need to think ""It's OK"""
294079,1,Advertising Misrepresents Product Capabilities,"The blurb on this product & the outside of the packaging both indicate this product will work on either household current or 9 volt battery.However, once you open the packaging & read the instructions, you find out that the battery function is for backup & emergency purposes only and will run the product for only a couple of days.This product must run from an outlet."
294228,1,Manage Your Expecations!,"I spent alot of time checking out the reviews of competitive products. Many reviews warned of the static-y connections inherent in these products (...likely due to the power output limits placed on the devices by the FCC). I was hoping this would be different but bottom line - - it delivers pretty disappointing sound. Lots of occasional static, hissing, and the dynamic range always sounds noticeably compressed/muffled. Since this is my second FM transmitter with the same limitation, I now believe it's a problem inherent with the technology. It's particularly noticeable since for the past 10-20 years, I think we've grown accustomed to the crystal-clear sound of CDs.My advice: Get a ""hard wire"" direct factory connection kit (expensive) or bring your car to some independent car stereo shop and have them run a direct connection cable out from the back of your radio in through the dashboard ($100-$150), and then connect your ipod through that."
294272,1,Worst HP printer ever,"This is the perhaps the worst printer HP has ever made. I bought this less than a year ago and it only worked ok after getting about 40 pages of print outs during the first 3 weeks. Thereafter problems started. The worst has been paper jams, on top of its eating up so much ink.I have had 4 HP printers and they all have proven to be VERY VERY bad (mainly paper jams, and print quality not to mention again their usage of so much ink). This though is the worst of them all.And mind you that I paid over [...] for this piece of junk at Costco less than a year ago - The price has come down which may indicate the supply and demand. But even if they give this printer to you for free plus [...], try to avoid it because the agony and cost associated with owning this junk is well beyond your wildest worst nightmares."

294363,1,First toy to make my cats flinch,"This is the first and last unreviewed cat toy that I'll buy. I have 2 cats, one is fussy regarding toys the other will usually find amusement in any type of cat toy. When I opened this for him, he was interested and sniffed the mouse. Unfortunately he then batted at it, which causes the toy to bob back and forth - the problem with this is that the metal wire which suspends the toy bounces back and hits him in the face everytime he hits the mouse toy. The wire has the weight and feel of one of those cheap metal coat hangers, not something any cat or human would want landing across the bridge of their nose...The mouse rattles, has an elasticised tail and the body is a hard casing. I'll probably detach the mouse, so they can at least play with it. Oh and the colour of the mouse toy varies, my mouse was orange/yellow - not that relevant to me but worth noting."
294403,1,"bent outer blades, twice","This product has been quite a disappointment. On the first try, I used it once and then noticed the outer blade did not sit flush against the base of the arbor, and when I tried to remove it from the arbor it required considerable force. It did cut a nice dado, but I was concerned about safety and possible damage to my saw. So I sent it back to Grizzly, which has great customer service. They paid my shipping and promptly replaced the dado set.Sadly, the second set has the same problem only worse -- the blade simply is not flat. I am not sure whether I will just return this set and buy a more expensive but better made set or perhaps just cut dadoes with a router from now on. It's a shame since so many others seem to have found this a good product. I wonder why I've gone 0 for 2."
294435,1,Not very durable,"I purchased this desk lamp a little over a year ago. Within six months the plastic knob for the switch broke. This lamp was not treated roughly, just daily use caused the plastic part of the switch to break. The shade part does not stay put. With any type of movement, the shade part constantly falls off. I would not recommend this lamp."
294454,1,Not a thirty dollar game,"The PC game Murder on the Orient Express boasts beautiful graphics, a plot line provided by one of mystery's great authors, and rich narration. Yet these cannot make up for the fact that this is an incredibly boring game. The game is full of mundane tasks (retrieving this or that for someone) that require no real thinking. As another reviewer mentioned, the sequence in the game is off. The order of items and clues is incorrect, further adding to the ease of the game. As far as difficulty, it could be much improved. Game play was only about one week, playing an hour or two a day. While the game is entertaining on some level it is just priced much too high."

294671,1,Rerecording Alert!!,"If any Country artist deserves a 2CD career compilation its John Anderson. His Warner Brothers material is crying out for a decent overview. So, this looked like a winner on paper. The hits plus album tracks from his 20+ career on Warner and BNA. But, this CD released on Anderson's own label is nothing but remakes. You won't know this if you looked at the sticker on the CD cover. It's not listed there, but if you look real close, at the bottom of the CD- in small letters - it states that these are new recordings. Too bad. A missed opportunity that only the most die-hard of Anderson's fans will want for their collection. The rest should stick with the Warner and BNA Greatest Hits CD's."
294683,1,Wow...just wow.,This movie was bad on so many levels. I've already wasted time and money on this movie and I refuse to waste much more than a couple of sentences here. This movie sucked.

294837,1,Avoid Veratex at all costs!,"I bought this set over a year ago and had the shams immediately fall apart. The comforter lost all of its fill within a year and the bed skirt loses fringe on a daily basis. I've even contacted the manufacturer, and now I know why quality is so low - the whole company is inept. They were rude, told me I had washed them (not so, I have no laundry related amnesia) and ultimately I complained to the BBB uselessly about them. Do yourself a favor and skip anything they make."

294915,1,Amnesia in under 300 pages!,"I first read this book some years ago and found it to be boring, mindlessly so. The characters seemed flat the hero so vastly unappealing that the second I put it down (unfinished of course) I forgot what the hell it was about.So recently I stumbled on it again and decided to revisit while flying across the country.Once again I can't even tell you, an hour after finihsing it, character names or anything else. It is that flat, wordy, boring, and unappealing.To be fair I do have ADD so yes, it does take a lot to get my attention and keep it but nothing in this milquetoast of a novel even tries."
294961,1,Did stephen king really write this one???,"First I'd like to state that i really love almost everything by king. This book is a real stupid one. Nothing speacial about it, it has only two real simple plots that innonate nothing. Maybe the heberw translater was a real bad one, or king just wrote a stupid book."
294963,1,barely readable from a genius author,kings strength has always beens characterization but in this over wrought novel i found myself caring little for the protagonist and being annoyed rather than disturbed by the antagonist. predictable and surprisingly uninventive. sorry to say. just read geralds game instead.

295043,1,"to much ""less"" for my taste!","I think that the book showcases work that would normaly place third in a design show. The idea of New Simplicity is simply a nice way of saying little color, little visual metaphore, little interest. If you are buying this book because you think that this is a swiss simplistic book DON'T! If you are buying this book because you think it's of the likes of Jan Tischold, or of the Bauhause regime, DON'T. This is a book that can add another inch to your design library, and give you a few ideas for how to make a few colors, and minimal design have some minimal impact."

295153,1,not practical,"I ordered this book and perused it and realized it was more of what I already know just from reading magazine articles in Parenting and kids' magazines along with Sugar Busters. It is very much geared toward families with older kids (8+) who have been consuming tons of sugar and reasons to get them not to. I am looking for recipes and ways to make sugar-free foods for my beginning children, ages 1 and 3. So if your kids are that age or you're looking for recipes or helpful suggestions, this is not the book you're looking for."
295184,1,"No extras on DVD, only Blu-Ray","ONLY WORTH BUYING IF YOU HAVE BLU-RAY. POOR QUALITY DVD, NO EXTRAS.Sorry to one star you Fassbender...Love the movie, love Steve McQueen. My beef is with Fox, which for some reason decided to release this film in this combo pack only, and decided NOT TO INCLUDE ANY OF THE EXTRAS ON THE DVD--just on the Blu-Ray disk. Would have enjoyed seeing the extras. Also be aware the DVD is standard definition...quality is awful. For hi-def you need to have Blu-Ray.Guess this is the new marketing push to get everyone to upgrade to Blu-Ray but I would have saved my money if I knew the DVD included in this set would be this shoddy. Would have at least liked to have had it spelled out in the product description so I could decide whether to buy. Fox should have refrained from releasing it on DVD at all rather than annoy people like this."

I'm not sure if you understand, but when the wind would blow through the trees it sounded like steel on steel!

295328,1,Bait and switch,"Don't waste your money thinking you are getting the original recordings. Most are poorly recorded live performances or re-recordings that don't hold a candle to the original. I have had this with other artists in the past and was sorely disappointed. The phrase ""ripped off"" comes to mind. All of these compilations should say definitively whether or not they are the originals."

295430,1,Not worth buying,"for the price your paying here, go find a better product. got mine in the mail the next day, but was not impressed. not only is this by all means a lightweight product, but its also poorly constructed (made in india). mine was partially come unraveled -- fresh out of the package! but if truth be told, this piece of crap is a step up from what I had before, so that's the only reason it doesn't get one star."
295581,1,The Pigman is not that great!,"When I read The Pigman, I was not that impressed. I had higher expectations for this book. The book was well written but the story was to unrealistic. The things that happen just dont really happen in reality. It gives you a false image of how kids life really is.The book is about two high school students, John and Lorraine, writting a story on what happened to them. They were doing their daily prank calls and Lorraine calls this man and John talks him into giving money to a fake charity. They go to get the money and end up becoming good friends and visit him eveyday. He gets his name the Pigman because he collects pigs. One day they decide to roller skate around the house when the Pigman has a heart attack. He lives and John and Lorraine visit him in the hospital when he tells them they could go to the house anytime and gives them the key. This is when it all goes wrong.You could read this to find out what happened, but I don't recommend it."

295683,1,Stay away.,"Possibly one of the WORST games i've ever played. Not only do the voices sound terrible, the game play is just plain boring. After an hour of trying to get out of a building, you spend another 30 mins trying to get out of a CROSSROAD! Ok, if you like games that give you headachs with annoying surf music, games that have you go back to old levels over and over, and a repetive, almost boring sword/oar combos.But dont take my word for it."
295700,1,Will not play in Sony Blu Ray,I purchased this DVD to play in my Sony Blu Ray and it got thru the FBI thingy to 15 seconds and that is it. I returned it and ordered another.

We put it into a friend's DVD player (which I do not have) and it worked.I saw clips of this show and really was looking forward to viewing on my big screen HDTV.
295761,1,Trophy Bass 4,"I received a used copy of Trophy Bass 4 in the mail earlier than expected. However, when I tried to load and play it would not load properly. I email, through Amazon, the seller and ask He/She what I needed to do to return it. They said it was not designed to work with Windows 7 or Vista and if that is what I had I should go on line and find a patch to make it work, but no instructions about returning it or getting a refund. Since I have Windows 7 on my computer I started using it but I had to install it new every time. The graphics were not all correct but it seemed to work, but not real well. After about 1-2 weeks the disk split. Therefore, I am not pleased and not happy since I spent the money and got virtually nothing for it."
295778,1,"IN THE "" WHAT WERE THEY THINKING"" CATAGORY....","Yes, Tom C. and what music there is would be the only reason to buy this movie atrocity of the Broadway hit. In fact, the cast was very good except for Diego Boneta (a major casting error). Boneta was so weak that he couldn't hold up his part to the standard of the heavy-weights around him (including the monkey). Too bad they were all fighting a losing battle as the story, fun, structure, and music were gutted and mutated so far from the original and in the worst way. Adam Shankman proves that he is an egotistical no talent hack (and honestly that is being overly kind). It drives me crazy that this movie insult even exists as it is extremely doubtful that a decent version will ever be made. For a real good time see the live show, apparently Shankman didn't."
295804,1,Totally Addictive Product,"These do help even a hardcore smoker quit, and the lozenges are not as annoying as the nicotine gum. However, the product is thoroughly addictive, and the manufacturer does not offer any support in quitting the lozenge. If you suffer from lung disease or shortness of breath, the lozenges can at least permit you to breathe clean air.The Original flavor seems to dissolve more slowly than the Mint or Cherry flavors, therefore you use less."
295864,1,What were they thinking?,"I can not believe that CBS is still trying to make money off this crap. If the show was so terrible that it couldn't finish one season on basic cable, what makes you think it is good enough to own. This is a watered-down pathetic version of the movie. If you can't get all the original charecters, then you shouldn't even try. The Sex and the City guy is not the husband in this show. BOO! Don't pay for something that you didn't watch when it was free on TV. Very Bad."
295873,1,Little Tiny Pieces That Don't Hold Their Glow,"This item came in the mail and my 4 year old son and I were very excited. I guess we should have read the description more carefully because I wasn't expecting so many tiny little pieces. We used ticky tack and began the tedious process of sticking the different sized stars and such all over his room. We waited that night to see the glowing celestial extravaganza. We kept the light on for some time to 'charge' the glow in the dark element then turned off the light. What we found was nothing close to amazing. The glow was fairly dim and only lasted for a very short period of time. We even turned a blacklight on them and all that did was make them glow a little brighter but, again, the glow only lasted about 10 -15 minutes. I ended up going back online and buying glow in the dark paint and a star shaped sponge. We dabbed stars all over his ceiling. These glowing stars last most of the night and our friends and family think his room is really cool."

296151,1,Really ????????,"Up until now many reviews on this site have been o.k as such, but I bought this DVD based upon the reviews and what waste of money ! The production is poor, the plans of action poor. For example who would travel half way round the world to explore something in no mans land and go out in the blue yonder without topping up the gas tank. They had this "" almost "" out of gas stunt a few times over and showing you the team boarding a small turbo prop aircraft to travel from the USA to a Pacific Island ! Leave it out, what a load of toffee. I figure the reviews came from the cast and crew. This just cannot be considered even amateur let alone serious.

It helped me get to places but I only give it 2 out of 5 point because it's supposed to do better.The worst thing with it is it doesn't direct you when you are on ""unhighlighted"" roads, which you're frequently on when you make stops. You have to find your way to the highlighted ways. I don't like it.Also, it often got confused in cities and gave wrong direction because it didn't know which road I were on.Another reminder, don't trust the dining places it provides, so outdated.It's an OK device but you can expect better. Even the gps system in my cell phone can do better."
296398,1,"Not scary, not suspenseful","This one isn't very good. I thought that the acting was VERY bad, the special effects were VERY bad, and the suspense was VERY bad. The movie is barely an hour long. I guess I too would have been in a hurry to get it over with."
296436,1,Not Very Happy With This Book,I'm afraid I didn't find this book very helpful. I forced myself to read a few chapters and was unable to relate to the writer. I'm sorry to say I would never recomend this book to anyone.
296460,1,Poor writing destroys the potential of this film,"I saw the trailer to this and was SOOOO excited. It looked to be a really good creepy ride of a film. Once we picked it up (I am forever grateful I got it at a bargain and didn't pay full price for it) we excitedly put it in. Even the talent of such a stellar cast couldn't keep the story in this film from reeking. For example, a nurse, with NO criminal background mind you, not only declares she is better at solving the crime than the actual police, but she is the only one who cares. She disturbs a crime scene and the police........do NOTHING? This just names a few but it was the constant unbelievability of this protagonist that just drove me nuttier than a fruitcake. The actors and actresses, as always, were stellar; the writer however needs to be taken to the woodshed and quietly beat."
296736,1,disappointing,"I was surprised when this product arrived looking like something I would have put together myself, in a 'tupperwear' type plastic box (not even the right size for the contents) and the items inside were sort of a 'throw together' hodge podge of things. It fulfilled the descriptions but some of the pieces were actually adult size (plastic gloves and face masks) and even the 'doctors coat' was just a disposable scrub, much too large for the average kid who would be young enough for this kind of play. I am still considering sending it back but my daughter (mother of the gift recipient) is insisting it's fine and her daughter is enjoying it. This may be a start-up/home business, which I applaud, but they need to step up the quality."
296738,1,Try to get a product without U3.,"This flash drive worked well for 2 years, which warrants a 2-star review; it is compact and I appreciated the retractable jack. Unfortunately, the U3 system is finnicky in its compatibility with Windows: Works fine on 2000, fine on XP Home, crashed several computers at home and work running XP Professional.When I upgraded my PC's operating system and crashed it with this drive I attempted to disable the U3 system, which required a software update from the manufacturer. In the process of applying the update my drive was corrupted and became unusable; I didn't lose any valuable data, but all the inconvenience on account of a superfluous program is irksome.Long and short, try to find a simple mass storage device without any proprietary software, and if you do buy this thing, disable U3."
296813,1,Don't follow this advice,"If you truly want to become good with women this book will not help you at all. Being this direct will be a turn off to 99% of women and believe me I tried it. Read a book about being indirect, I suggest Neil Strauss's Rules of the Game."
296831,1,No instruction,"I was hopeful for this, like others in the series. Just starts with no instruction and that is not helpful for someone just starting out. perhaps if you are already familiar with modern dances it would be a better fit."
296844,1,Wow this is a stinker,"Other than the fact that this soundtrack has ""Overdue"" by The Get Up Kids from their album On A Wire and ""Kill"" by Jimmy Eat World this thing sucks. I mean honestly it has a cover version of ""When the Stars Go Blue"" this song is maybe 4 years old and was original written and released on ""Gold"" by Ryan Adams. This version is a bastardized version and sounds like any other acousticish nu metal song. Gavin Degraw were do I start? This guys voice is as annoying as they come I rank him up there with other phrat boy singer songwriters like Jack Johnson, Dave Matthews, and Ben Harper. Then we get to Story of the Year, one of the worst bands in the pop punk/screamo category to date. These guys have ripped off ever good band I know in the catergory and made their songs into nu metal songs with goofy lyrics. This cd is a turd go buy Jimmy Eat World ""Futures,"" The Get Up Kids ""On A Wire,"" and Ryan Adams ""Gold"" and leave this waste of money alone."
296865,1,"Good concept, but weak connector.","The dual volume controls are a great idea. I love ear cover headphones, the wife likes ear-buds and the mismatched types meant volume levels were never right. This little cable solves the issue when two folks are sharing media. The issue I have is the input plug is not designed for even the lightest of tugging of the cable. The entire plug seems to start coming apart after just a bit of use.. If the input is redesigned, this would be a great device."

297065,1,Sidekick is too cool. T-Mobile stinks,"As you will note from the other reviews, T-Mobile is awful. And in all liklihood no one there is smart enough or cares enough to read reviews of their service. Don't even try to make a call from a basement. Signal strength is non-existent. We called to cancel and they said, ""We'll give you the web server free for a month to try."" We cancelled within the month and they charged us anyway. Nothing we could say would make them rescind the charge. How do they stay in business?"

297086,1,Existential despair?,"This book seems to advocate the idea that life is inherently meaningless. This may be true, but most existentialists believe in giving artificial meanings to life. I would rather believe in those ""unreal"" meanings then give in to the more ""realistic"" despair. Hope may have no inherent meaning, but it is necessary. The main character in this uses reason so much it controls him. I believe reason should be a tool not a slavemaster.Maybe I missed the books point, but that's what I got out of it. It should be read by all religious existentialists so they can laugh at it."
297119,1,Not as good as the others,"Although 3rd in the series, and it picks up where the 2nd one left off, it has a pretty weak story line, and jumps around too much. Didn't care for it as much as the 2nd one. Excellent fight scenes! just a weak story...."
297121,1,Amazing vocalist + Great music + AWFUL recording = Unpleasant Album,"I REALLY hate to write this, but the recording quality is SO poor that I must urge people to avoid this CD in favor of the other Pavarotti/Three Tenor Christmas CDs out there. Honestly, this sounds like the ""audio engineer"" had a cheap tape recorder and sat towards the back of the auditorium. Yes, there are some great older recordings out there; this is MOST CERTAINLY not one of them. Avoid, and buy Pavarotti's other Christmas music instead."
297160,1,Too DRY!!,"I put this on right after taking a shower in the morning and it flakes off probably because my skin was a little dry. But it has daily moisterizer right? Also, the tint is very light, and does not do a good job of coverage. I was not expecting it to be heavy like a foundation, but Dove did a better job than Neutrogena on coverage part. Also, the tint was not shiny enough (lol, if too shiny then my skin look oily), so it makes my skin look flat, not radiant. Can't wait to finish this product so I can go back to Dove"
297196,1,Not Usable,"I've planned a summer-long tour of the northwest USA via RV and motorcycle. One of the 'must do' items is to check MC tire pressures regularly. My bike needs a flexible connection to ensure a solid connection to the tire valve. That's why I ordered this tire gauge. Unfortunately the gauge arrived with the needle on the wrong side of the zero peg, thus rendering the entire gauge unusable. Additionally there was no way to take the gauge apart to remedy the problem.Based on that problem I cannot recommend this gauge."
297218,1,Dumb and Dumber go hiking . . . in the desert,"Dumb & dumber go hiking . . . in the desert. They get lost. That's it.Not a lot of talkin', which is good cause these boys ain't got nothing to say.Some nice scenery. About as interesting as watching paint dry.Ends with a ""WTF"" ending. Maybe some reviewers found this made the film ""provocative"". Lame cop-out for real plot in my opinion. You decide: if you can stand it that long.Continuity alert: Casey has a white hooded sweatshirt when he goes into the desert. At the big rock, it's not there any more. Considering how little else goes on in this movie and how important any protection is in the desert, why wasn't this omission noticed?"
297220,1,Spoiler alert: nothing happens.,"Two guys named Jerry trek soundtracklessly though the anything-but-beautiful wastelands of Argentina, Jordan, & Death Valley, & probably the least interesting place in Utah. If you've ever lived in the desert & moved somewhere green where it actually rains, this movie will make you glad you did.This movie actually managed to be more boring than 1981's ""Night of Terror"", but if you have someone in your family who suffers from insomnia or a naughty child in time-out, then this is the perfect sedative/torture for you."
297327,1,too expensive,The price of this item is way too expensive for folks living in an apartment with limited space. It would be cheaper to remove cabinets and install regular sized stove.
297358,1,Consistenly Hard Cooked Soft Boiled Eggs Every Time,"Despite weeks of practice and dozens of eggs, we were unsuccessful in getting even one perfectly soft boiled egg. No matter what the water level (and experiment we did because the instructions are useless -- seriously) every egg came out overcooked. It is going in the garbage. Come to think of it, with Easter around the corner we may wait a couple days, because it will make perfect hard boiled eggs every time."
297396,1,Waste of money!!,"I tried this stuff because the idea of not having to shave as often seemed like a dream. With this product I will definitely have to keep dreaming because it didn't help at all!! I waited with it on for about 5 minutes and then went to rinse it off. My legs looked exactly as they had before I put it on. Some people have been saying that it burned them almost immediately but for me it was the opposite. I didn't feel anything! I would have gone 5 minutes more but I really didn't have the time. I ended up using the slickness it left on my legs after I washed it off to quickly shave with a razor like I normally would. Very disappointing!!! Please don't waste your money on this. On top of that, from what I can tell the bottle is already running out and I've only used it once. I guess I'll just use it as a sort of shaving cream so as not to completely waste my money....."
297442,1,Where's the rest of it?,"I found this third ""Undead"" book to be rather anti-climatic... or maybe non-climatic would be a better word. When I got to the end, all I could think was ""That's it? Am I missing pages? Were chapters left out of my ebook?"" Not a lot happens here. Basically, Betsy finds out she has a half-sister who's really the daughter of Satan, goes a little crazy after reading the Book of the Dead for too long and has to apologize to everyone, has one confrontation where she finds out some important facts about her new half-sister, and finally admits that she loves Sinclair. And... that's it. Maybe we find out more about this prophecy with her sister in the next book? All I know is that this one was pretty lacking."
297490,1,ideas not fully formed,"to my dissapointment, not everything by the original daevid allen era gong is indispensable. this is radio gnome invisible pt. 1 with the finest space rock lineup anyone could hope for but the final result of this album comes of sounding like a tentative rehearsal where in many places allen scats some of the songs' improvisations and their arrangement lacks coherence and development. instrumentation is limited to supporting the vocals and chants and rarely gets the opportunity to expound any ideas or feel each other out. in the end, daevid allen displays some infectious song writing ability but it appears that the new members just weren't ready to record yet. this is steve hillage's first appearance for gong but you wouldn't know it as his guitar is barely noticeable. things change remarkably for the next albums 'angels egg' and 'you' which are two of the greatest psychedelic albums ever recorded."

I'm originally from Austria... :-).Another big disappointment was the ski-jump. I have yet to figure out how to loose this event. And don't even get me started about the other events..."
297726,1,Cute but shoddy.,"The best thing about this case is the cute fabric. But there's no way around it: the thing is poorly made. The inside looks like a 99-cent wallet, with its stiff plastic card window and cheap-o wallet slots. The velcro tabs are badly placed: for a secure fit, you'd have to cover part of the springboard cover on the Visor. And of course there's the zipper, which is as crummy as the rest and barely fits around a Visor. I'm returning it today."
297727,1,DO NOT BUY THIS CAMCORDER!,"I own this camera and recently decided to just trash the darn thing. What a huge waste of money and a huge disappointment. My first problem with the camera is that it ONLY works with Maxell disks. I realize NOW that these are ""recommended"" by the manufacturer, but this was not made clear to me when I purchased it, and it surprising how many stores don't carry the Maxell brand. For the few years since I've had this camera, we are constantly losing disks mid-use and getting error messages. Recently there was another error message and the darn thing won't even open. I can't tell you how much has been lost. And, even if you didn't have all of the hard drive problems that seem to be common to the camera, I find the DVD loading mechanism unnecessarily tricky to load. So, my recommendation is--avoid this camera. I saw a good review of it and purchased it, and it has been nothing but trouble. And from what i've read on other message boards, I am definitely not alone!"
297796,1,DO NOT BUY FROM THIS VENDOR,This is no a review of the Timer/Printer but the deceptive practices of the vendor. The item was not properly identified by serial number as it prevented me from doing direct comparisans with other vendors. with such knowledge I would not have bought from Online Sports and would have dealt with a more reputable vendor. Who in their right mind charges $41.00 for shipping and handling for something that otherwise would cost $10-$15 to ship if they kney that once the customer was reeled in and would have second thoughts about returning it for a less expensive one. This stopwatch/printer was purchase to help kids with their splits and races. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS VENDOR!!!

298023,1,short attention span theatre,"I remember really liking ""Joseph Andrews"", another famous novel by this author.I remember it being funny. I just couldn't get into this one. It takes a while to get going. The basic plot is that Tom is a foundling, in love with a wealthier girl, but Tom is forced to leave his home. After many complications, including Tom's somewhat ""innocent"" infidelities, you can guess what happens. It's sort of a male version of a Jane Austen novel, with more travel involved, and more comedy. Maybe my attention span is shrinking."

298113,1,Quality expected with price,"I anticipated the quality of this flashlight to suffer due to the low price. I ordered two that worked for a while, but within a few months of very light use, the flashlights started to short out when held in a normal way. This was tested on both flashlights with the same result. I'd recommend spending a few more dollars on a better quality flashlight."
298142,1,Difficult to see notation at normal viewing distance on music holder,"The notation is way too small for comfortable sight-reading. I have tried a couple of times, but have set this book aside in favor of my Warner fake books which have a very comfortable viewing size."
298168,1,Not the greatest,"I ordered this product during a heavy infestation in my house. I hoped that using this, along with treating my animals, vaccuming daily, and having the pest control people spray, that the problem would be solved. That was three months ago. I am still seeing fleas. My children are being bitten. And the trap has not caught one single flea."
298179,1,Because it didnt work properly like the instructions says,"Follwed all the instructions I saw only 2 fleas in 2 days, after the 5th day saw a few more, would not invest on it again."
298186,1,Didn't work for me.,"I bought this after reading the reviews hoping it would work in my bathroom. It never caught a single flea. Very disappointing. I tried daytime, nighttime, and moving it to different places, never worked."
298235,1,Disappointing,"After watching the PBS production of South Pacific, I thought getting this Brian Stokes Mitchell CD would be a no-brainer. I anticipated hearing a series of top-rate songs with that glorious bass-baritone voice pouring out of my system. Mr. Mitchell chose, however, to record his material in a light breathy voice that left me constantly asking, ""Where's the beef?"" I've seen Mr. Mitchell on television quite a few times, and I've always been impressed by his singing. With great regret I have to say this CD just doesn't work for me."
298293,1,"Can you say ""waste of money"", boys and girls?","Comparisons to Lenny Bruce and Zappa? That's hilarious! Unfortunately, this disc isn't! I don't believe either of those two gentlemen would have wasted so much ""talent"" conjuring up the collection of absolutely inane garbage issued on this album. Of course, the arguments have arisen that you must certainly be ""PC"" if you don't like this album. No, actually it's just a matter of taste. And the Beanweevils' extrapolations of nothing but bad taste is so unbearably unfunny that it makes you wonder. Zappa at his worst couldn't be this crummy. Joe's Garage this ain't. The sound is more close to Romper Room than anything else."
298308,1,"The Rapture is Real, the Doctrines about it are False","I too was led to believe in an imminent rapture and that many would be left behind. But that's not true.... but neither is Currie's interpretation of prophetic scriptures. Yes, the rapture is real; it will occur, but just not when and how the popular writers tell us.No one will be ""Left Behind,"" because the Bible teaches us that all people will be raptured and then stand before God to be judged... the whole world at once.And it won't be imminent. Scripture clearly of an appointed time.Too many people who are afraid of the tribulation try to ""escape"" it by inventing a pre-trib rapture scenerio. No, it won't be pre-trib, but it will be pre-WRATH.However; for those who choose not to believe it, don't worry, you won't miss it, because the world will not experience the rapture until the very end. I feel more sorrow for those who expect it in their lifetime who will lose faith when it doesn't happen according to their errant doctrine..."
298325,1,Only the title is good,"This is a grade B movie--poor acting, poor lines, poor quality in general. A young Juan Gabriel plays the lead in this movie which depicts an (apparently true) segment of his life during which he was jailed for being wrongly arrested and convicted on a theft charge. It is during this time that he makes a contact which later leads to his artistic discovery. There are probably more poorly-acted fist-fights not involving Juan than music scenes. The music is of poor quality as well. Don't waste your money on this video; instead, spend it on Juan Gabriel's live performance videos which are truly exceptional."
298375,1,Beautiful but with an Achilles heel,"I love the look of this canister. Sitting on my counter, keeping my coffee beans dry and fresh. Aesthetically it's extremely gratifying. Functionally however, it leaves something to be desired. Closing the canister top takes a few tries every time to be sure the lid is lining up correctly with the cannister, otherwise the lid sits funny. Also the tab to lock the lid in place is extremely flimsy and if you push too hard on it, will bend leading me to believe that it will soon snap off leaving me with a jagged edge my thumb will enjoy trying to push down to seal the lid. SO that's exciting."
298386,1,"Longing, historical fiction","I found the book to be overly wordy, although I enjoyed the historical aspect, I felt that I did not know the meaning of almost fifty percent of the vocabulary. The constant name dropping of famous composers, painters, and artists, who had no real relevance to the story, was slightly irritating. The book did improve by the last quarter, however, but the first three fourths were a plod."
298387,1,not appropriate for young children,"I am surprised that reviewers have not had an issue with the content in the section of the story where Anansi traps the fairy. I would not read this book aloud to my classes because of lines like ""...slap her spanking place"" and the fairies discussing hitting hard and hitting again to teach the wooden fairy a lesson! Dragging fairies, the snake, and even the hornets off to an angry god also does not convey appropriate social messages. Many other Anansi books are much more appropriate for teaching about these traditional stories - such as the ones by Eric Kimmel."

Then in product review it states there are 8 oz. in the bag. Also if you enlarge the photo, you can see there are 8 ounces. If Amazon changes/corrects the error here, go ahead and delete this review.

298556,1,What is NEXT?,"This is a book of disjointed short stories about things that happened in the PAST on the Internet. Although some of the stories are mildly interesting, the author doesn't provide any common theme on how these stories give us insight into what is coming NEXT? The author rambles on tangents about the indivuals or their families in the stories for much of the book. This may be a good book if you are totally in the dark about the Internet and Technology revolution"

298567,1,I don't think I read the same book as the rest of you!,"Sorry folks, I agree with David Gates. An interesting idea but sloppy writing with an author in pretentious mode often more interested in showing his own ""intelligence"" than in constructing a fluid or challenging narrative. I felt like joining Vikram and was delighted to finish this book! Only buy it if you are prepared to wade through some pretty turgid stuff."

298697,1,Not what is pictured!,"IF you order this product, you will receive a bag of ""Small World Rabbit Food"" [...]When contacted, this seller does not address why the picture is of MannaPro Pro food, some of the best food on the market. Only says, it's by the same company.That's great and all, but this is a bait and switch!DO NOT ORDER THIS PRODUCT!"
298716,1,I think mice are attracted to it -Not even worth 1 star,This is the worst product I have ever bought. Will never by any other sharper image product again. I know my neighbors were having mice issues so I thought it would be a good idea to buy this device. Prior to purchasing the device I had never seen a mouse in our house. During the first month we used the device we were also used the sticky paper at the same time (the paper was also there when we didnt have the device). So within the month of using the device I found 3 mice stuck to the paper. Its a joke dont buy it. Amazon should remove the product from the site since its false advertising to say it scares off mice
298719,1,Woodstock 24-pc brush set,"I thought all foam brushes were the same. Not so with this product; the foam is not as dense and is very porous; therefore giving out in no time. I used it to apply oil stains on wood so after destroying the first 2, I had to lighten my strokes dramatically( the plastic frame is so close to the foam at the tip, you don't have much choice anyway). I would'nt recommend applying thicker matter like paint, nor applying it on rough surfaces. Thought I made a good purchase, but I'll be visually inspecting those at the home center first. The only positive aspect is with so many brushes on hand, you should have enough to complete a small to mid size project, but with a lot going to waste."
298765,1,low pressure,"low volume water pressure compared to my first purchase of this product, maybe due to my not purchasing the suggusted hose to go with it that i purchased with my first one purchased. Either way I am very dissapointed with the low volume of water pressure that I am now getting."
298787,1,JUNK,"THE AT&T 964 was a piece of JUNK from that start. It should never have been sold, and paying the top dollar for it was differently wrong. I should have gone to WAL-mart and brought a $19.00 one. If it is any idea how AT&T is I will not buy their products any more. The company should have recalled this junk and refunded the money!"
298792,1,Boring and filled with gratuitous violence...,This is the most boring Buffy book on the market and it is filled with gory and disgusting details that aren't necessary to the plotline. I wouldn't recommend this book to even the most diehard Buffy fans.
298830,1,"Painstaking reading, even for big Costello fans.","They say anybody can write a book and Let Them All Talk is proof positive of that addage. This autobiography is a pastiche of interviews, press clippings and personal accounts. In short, it is painstaking reading.If you can say anything good about this book, at the least, it is a fairly comprehensive account of Costello's career. The only problem is that it is so loosely strung together it is like reading an unassembled jigsaw puzzle. Almost every single paragraph seems to switch gears midway through, leaving me wondering if parts of a second book been inserted piecemeal into the one I was reading.As a final note, Hinton shows extremely bad taste in criticizing the work of Tony Clayton-Lea, Krista Reese and David Gouldstone. I mean hey, let's leave that stuff on the playground.Only a Costello fan would buy this book and unfortunately, only a Costello fan COULD read this book."
298866,1,dont quit your day job!,"sadly, the only thing this book did well was disappoint. Ms. Robinson should write cookbooks, for the tradegy of her mother's choice was served up like so much soggy, grey tofu."
298938,1,"It's a cookbook, not a Beanie book","This is a cookbook, with a little incorrect Beanie info, masquerading as a ""Beanie Handbook."" Don't be misled by the title, and don't be misled by the star rating here.If you want a cookbook, there are lots of those available -- including a number of fun cooking projects for kids. If you want a Beanie book, there are several available -- don't overlook some of the comprehensive Beanie magazines.This is just a rip-off designed to sucker in folks, including young children, who will buy the book relying on its misleading title."
298998,1,SuperMeh.,"For a IP with so much available backstory you would think that this would be a sandbox style game with the flair and fun of one of the Spiderman games. That incorrect. The grey muted palette, half wit story lines and laughable combo system turns this game into yet another lame movie tie in. Another buck to be made of kids and unknowing gamers.Save yourself the money and rent or trade. This is not worth 60$. It is not worth the expenditure of energy to unwrap it."
299000,1,Save your cash.,"Flying is the ONLY pull of this game. Besides the awesome flight and superspeeding, the rest of the game is a repetitive mash of robots and dragons...save your money, and buy Spider-Man 2 for Xbox...or Gears of War for 360, those deserve your cash."
299065,1,LEAKY!,Six months old and it's trash! Very disappointing.I'm not sure why it is required that we have at least 20 words for this review but I'm willing to meet that requirement because I'm so angry that I spent $50 on a kettle that only lasted 6mos.
299095,1,You have got to be kidding me.,"Please do yourself a favor and spend the $13.50 or so on something worthwhile or donate it to me if you are desperate to throw money away. This album has very little musical quality or merit and I cannot get through it again. Repetitive tones and words can be great in some songs, too bad this cd does not contain a song that it works in.I guess with some large company backing even something this bad can be considered Great. (Echos of Ashlee Simpson go here)And finally I see they received two grammy nominations for this album............2 nominations..........for this album..........This gives me hope to win a grammy with my new album ""Recordings from a Restroom"". Obviously this is what it takes to be a grammy winning artist these days."
299130,1,Misleading Information for Products,"I ordered this product thinking that it was a 15ft chain ( because that's what the picture showed) because there was no mention of the length in the description.Then I recieved a 10ft chain for my order. When I e-mailed the seller they informed me that The product code was for a 10ft chain not a 15ft even though the picture was of the 15ft. They blamed it on amazon and said if I paid to mail it back then they was give me a 15ft on instead. I then e-mailed back and explained that it was not in any way my error and I souldn't have to pay for postage back and had asked for a pre postage self addressed envelope. And they just never did any thing not ever responded. Very unhappy with this seller ,the product is not what was advertised and very misleading and sneaky."
299132,1,Great if you happen to like a box full of advertising,The actual tissues are fine - just as good as the generic no-name items - but every box is covered with large advertisements. That's not what I want to see at home.I'm done with Kleenex - I'll be sticking with store-branded tissues (without any ads on the boxes).
299159,1,Bad video transfer,The video transfer on this was bad. Scenes in broad daylight were so badly damaged you couldn't see them on the screen. There were no extras on the DVD. This is a classic example of a studio trying to pull in $$$ on a cheap re-issue.
299282,1,"Great clock, wrong time","This is a great large sized automotive digital clock, perfect for anyone who wants to see the time in their car. Only problem is that is runs slow. What does that mean? It means about every 3 weeks or so the clock will be about 1 minute slow."
299283,1,Didn't fit,The charger did not fit with my Nintendo DS as it stated on the description so I had to return it.
299322,1,Laughable. Incompetent. Creepy.,"This is as intelligent and thought-provoking as a late night infomercial. While I don't consider myself to be an expert on quantum physics, I find it pretty disgusting that these ""filmmakers"" use it as a vessel to pitch their sappy new age ideas. As a film, it's about as valuable as a public access show. Everything's in focus, but that's about the only thing going for it from a technical standpoint. Atrocious acting, awful music selections, terrible pacing. If you're serious about asking meaningful, scientific (or spiritual) questions, skip this empty-headed mish-mash and read ""The Elegant Universe"" by Brian Greene instead."
299378,1,"Great at first, but broke quickly","This worked great at first. However, 6 months after purchase, the retracting mechanism seems to have failed, as it doesn't retract.Then, 8 months after purchase, the cord stopped working completely."
299502,1,The best but not the very best,"Rhino tried to do their job here to make a selection from the best kwown albums out of Todd's entire carriere span.The overall result is a litle bit sloppy.It makes the listener think that most of Todd Rundgen's songs give the imression that's all about wining.Not enough rock'n'roll here,too many ""love songs"".If you want the very best of Todd Rundgen,you better try ""Initiation"".That was his ""vey best period"".Sadly,only one song is featured on this selection,adaptly named ""Real man"".Indeed."
299615,1,poor value,Thiswasn't worth the price. I was upset because the price II was charged was more than double than the price printed on the back cover...
299633,1,STyle over substance,"While this is a stunning graphic accomplishment, it's no ""Twin Peaks"" in terms of plot development. I confess that I *thought* it was a real story---I believe I saw a blurb on amazon that led me to believe this before it was published. Imagine my disappointment when I realized it's really just a glorified scrapbook with a flimsy plot. Ho-hum...this is one of those books that I wouldn't mind browsing through in a book store, but I bought it sight unseen so I only have myself to blame."
299740,1,Traci,"I also received this item damaged. I sent it back and had target send me another. However, the item was not available for them to resend to me. I just checked online and the two dressers and the headboard are now not available. I am glad now that the dresser was damaged because I couldn't have finished the collection anytime soon anyways."
299746,1,Only 2.5 yrs old and doesn't work!!!,"We bought this GPS unit back in 2004 for cross country. It was great then. Then we did a software upgrade last year (2006) ,and this year the unit is basically non-functional now. The unit freezes upon processing data/destination route. This is really disappointing for a company that sells the unit (originally new for over $1K). We expected to get more life out of this unit. Additionally, we inquired about the unit repair--we would have to fork over another $200 to get the unit fixed after last year's upgrade, which cost us about $200 then--to find out the warranty for the upgrade is only for 3 months. What kind of warranty is that? What company would have so low confidence in their product to only offer a 3 month warranty? $200 is no small amount. Recommend buying a GARMIN. Magellan people have a lot of problems to fix!"
299768,1,"Same Old, Same Old","OK, what can I say? The prologue introduced a firey scene that I hoped would carry through to the main book but I was wrong. I have read this in any number of JAK's other books. Same kind of heroine and hero. Different setting. I thought the character of Victoria Bellamy was of much more depth and complexity that the main characters. I think JAK would have better served her reading fans by making her the storyline and putting Jack and Elizabeth in the back ground. I'm not sure what seems to be the problem with JAK's latest book(s) but something is surely missing. Its like the aim is good but it veers off during the journey. I would hate to see JAK's talent rest on its laurels. Be daring, be bold and surprise the heck out of us, Jayne."
299800,1,"Don't work, don't fix problem spots!","This is a very bad product, Just like the Auto Dash Repair I didn't get the Heat IRON and it didn't work fix nothing at all, MONEY WASTED"
299839,1,i'm not really a kid. didn't want to register,"ok first the sub. The bass is so boomy, distorted, muddy, its just not good at all. the speakers sound like they are in a tin can and they are screechy. these are the just the worst speakers i've had and i've had lots. i bought these at my local fred meyer not from amazon so i took them back them back right after i put them back in the box. i had 3 watt altec lansing 2.0 speakers that sounded better than these. do not buy them. i recomend the altec lansing xa3021'sthey are cheaper and sound so much better and good quality and the bass is excellent. these cyber acoustics not recomended ever."
299877,1,Less Than Writing,"The book is beautifully written but--if you are looking for practical advice to improve your writing--go elsewhere. If you are looking for insight into how Annie creates her magic on the page, you won't find much of it. The book is little more than a series of well crafted journal entries on a series of barely related topics. I smiled once or twice, but the book was a lot less than I expected."
299893,1,The same old story,"I felt this book offered nothing new to the Mafia story that hasn't been published in better books like ""Wiseguy"" by Pilleggi. Maas strains to make Gravano ""sympathetic,"" but really he's just pathetic, as are Gotti and, for that matter, Peter Mass, for pedaling the same old song thirty years after he first published ""Valachi Papers."""
299900,1,Waste of Money,I play badminton regularly - at an intermediate/advance level.Recently gave a try to this purticular brand of shuttlecocks and I must say its been a big dissapointment.There are much much better shuttlecocks out there if you spend just few dollars more.This shuttlecock can't even take half the beating the other brands do. For every game I end up burning least 3 shuttlecocks.Looks like all the reviews regarding this product are posted by folks playing in there backyard.Stay away from this brand.
299957,1,Turned into a gloppy mess,I thought this product would be the answer to my son overflowing his diaper - did not see a significant (even slight) improvement in capacity of his diaper over night. I would invest in a better diaper instead - like Euro Briefs
299976,1,"Good idea, bad delivery","The idea of this story seemed so cool that I had to read it. However, the writer takes so long setting up the story and then everything moves so sluggishly.... Good characters and great idea but should have been a short story."
299982,1,"$179 purchase, 3 months of use. What a waste of money!","I own a Hoover steam cleaner, which I love. When our Fantom died, I looked at several vacuums before deciding on this one. I wish I had kept looking.Mine arrived with a part already broken off (the attachments are contained in a cheap plastic cup at the top of the machine). But, I figured it wouldn't affect the way the vacuum worked, so I kept it.The first time I used it, I was impressed. It did a nice job and the 'dirtfinder' was a great added feature. However, when I emptied it, I immediately realized it was not going to be a great appliance - like the other reviewer said, it's a mess. It takes 20 minutes to vacuum and 10 minutes to clean up - the filter, screen, vacuum, dust cup are all impossible to clean completely.It's going back to the shop again and will be given away when it's fixed. I've ordered a Dyson.Save your money and keep shopping. This model is junk."
300035,1,Never imagined I wouldn't like a Bruford CD,"As a big fan of Bruford (Earthworks, Crimson, Yes, UK, Bruford) and Levin (Crimson, Gabriel, Lennon, Liquid Tension Experiment, Bozzio Levin Stevens) I figured that a live double disc with this awesome rhythm section would be stellar... how wrong I was. This music is nothing like the ensembles mentioned above; it is very weird avant-garde improvisational jazz. Not that there is anything wrong with that... if you like Mingus, Dolphy, and Coleman there may be quite a bit to enjoy, and maybe I just can't appreciate this style of music.I have listened to this at least twenty times; therefore, this is not my initial reaction to this disc... for me there is nothing enjoyable on this CD. I would recommend any of Bruford's work mentioned above, but pass on this unless you're a fan of this type of music."
300037,1,Couldn't Finish It,"The characters annoyed me too much. I didn't really feel like there was any chemistry between them, much less emotion. It was basically a constant battling of wits (except that they weren't that witty) followed by sudden passion that had be scratching my head and wondering where the heck that came from. Unfortunately the characters started out promising, which made it all that much more disappointing when they devolved into completely flat one dimensional characters."
300043,1,Beware Tracking Problems and Out of Date POIs,"I bought this unit in anticipation of using it with my laptop on a long road trip. The software loaded fine and worked with the GPS receiver included with it. While using it a few times, however, I've found some serious limitations. First, the user interface is completely unique and requires some getting used to - it's not really bad but I'm the only one in my family that's taken the time to figure it out. Second, the points-of-interest (POIs), like gas stations, restaurants, etc., are very sparse and out-of-date. Third, and perhaps most disturbing, is that the GPS receiver loses lock on the GPS satellite signals in overcast skies. This might not matter if you're cruising along on a highway, but not when your trying to find your next turn. For these reasons, I recommend looking elsewhere for a laptop-based GPS unit."
300056,1,Very Boring,Very slow moving story...not very enticing...sound quality not great. We did not finish this movie as it did not hold our interest. Unusual experience at best.
300140,1,The guy from Canada is sooo right!,"I read the reviews for this CD, but unfortunately went ahead and ordered this CD set. I should've paid attention to the last review listed, the one from Canada. I wasted my money on this CD. It is just as bad as he said it was. Next time I will pay attention to the negative reviews."
300141,1,"ONLY ONE, and very tiny","Looks more like a zuchinni, only one, despite the photo and the name of the item (cucumberS). About the same size as a beginner crayon."
300150,1,Please do not waste your money on this book!,I recently had to use this book in a college level Java course. This book is absolutely confusing. Entirely too much detail is some areas and not enough in others. I echo the comments of other reviewers about the index. It is worthless if you are looking for a particular subject. Do not waste your time or money on this book.
300170,1,Read before you buy!,"I thought I was purchasing this as a second charger for the Nintendo DS. This is not the case. The unit does not include its own plug, and requires the use of the AC adapter charger cord that came with the game. Also, if you have any kind of acrylic case or skin on your game, it has to be removed in order to fit into the dock. Item is overall a disappointment."
300178,1,Painful.,"All 1 hour and 20 minutes of this ""movie"" were painful. I write movie in quotes because I was under the impression that movies were required to have a plot and purpose; this has neither. Maybe there is something here that was artistically intellectual beyond my understanding, but watch/ buy/ rent at your own risk."
300204,1,ACK!!!!,"A very ill-conceived attempt at getting a more mainstream sound. It's so maddening because you know Johnny Mac is capable of so much brilliance and to hear this was a real shock. There are odd moments that are actually OK but for the most part it falls flat on its face, and even grotesque parody (the awful ""Planetary Citizen"" may as well had a guest vocal appearance by William Shatner). The guitar-synth gadget didn't help any either.Want good Johnny Mac? Stick to the first three Mahavishnu discs and many of his solo outings and Shakti, but skip this one (except possibly to get rid of unwanted party guests, ""Planetary Citizen"" will have 'em running for the hills in no time)."
300217,1,"Can you say ""FRUSTRATING""???","Just took this one out of the box and even with a college education I can't figure out how to make it work!!! My 4 year old little boy clicks around aimlessly trying to make something work, to no avail! Unless I'm totally missing something, there are no real instructions as to what to do to get things going, there's only a big to-do about the art show and portfolio."
300237,1,unconscionable price-gouging,"Not sure whom to blame in this instance, Braun, Brita or both, but surely the ridiculous price demanded for this product does no service to the reputation of both of these otherwise creditable companies. Has the item been discontinued, or is there some kind of current production glitch? Neither really do as excuses, but the unconscionable price-gouging here demands some kind of explanation."
300246,1,Tremenda Porqueria,Estaba muy decepcionado por este album...quisas 2 buenas cansiones pero...mas na'no hay palabras para describir que mal estuvo este album
300258,1,Mislabeled,I bought this stretch hose believing that it would fit my WindTunnel T-Series vacuum cleaner. The box says that it fits all WindTunnel machines. That is incorrect.
300268,1,Buy a lot of 'em if you have to use them...,"Let's face it... if you're shooting with a bracket, you need this device. The problem is it's not well made. I'm on my third in a year's time. The hotshoe that hold the flash has a nasty habit of breaking at the base, making it tough to keep the thing on the bracket. That means my 580EX has had a couple of tumbles, which not only puts your equipment in a bad way, it makes you look unprofessional on the job. It was a relief to switch to using Gary Fong lightspheres and ditch the brackets altogether."
300270,1,Weak flavored coffee,"Although I love the convenience of this coffee maker, I have been very disappointed by the flavor of the decaf coffee. The coffee brews beautifully, creating an appealing frothy ""crema"" at the top. However, the coffee itself is very bland.I keep hoping that Senseo will introduce a ""bold"" decaf option. My husband, who drinks caffeinated coffee, quite enjoys their ""bold"" coffee pods. In the meanwhile, I circumvent the problem by using two decaf coffee pods, while selecting the one cup option. It concentrates the coffee, which significantly improves the flavor. It bothers me, though, that I'm paying ""twice"" for one cup of coffee.From the reviews, it seems like a lot of people enjoy the decaf coffee, as it is. However, if you enjoy a more intense, bold tasting coffee, you will need to use two pods to get some approximation of a distinct coffee flavor."
300421,1,Canon Remote Switch RS60,"The mechanism is essentially a lockable electrical switch with a cord and mini-phonejack. I found it too easy to accidently slide the button in lock position causing several unintended exposures. Unless you make your own, it is the way you can remotely trigger the shutter mechanism."
300438,1,Does not work as advertised,"I have a Canon Powershot S200 and this cable was supposed to work with it. However, connecting it to my Mac Book Pro and the camera was not recognized. Not sure if it's the cable or not but I believe it worked before with the original cable (which I have lost)."
300496,1,Smaller than they look,"This item is made from nice stainless steel but it is sized for a very small person with a miniature frying pan. I am looking for a tool to hold onto an item and turn it over without dropping it. This thing has a VERY SHORT handle and it's dangerous to use near a fry pan. In fact, since it does no good as a salad server, I have yet to find a use for it. Don't get one or you'll be stuck like I am with another piece of useless junk in your kitchen.I know. I am going to put it in the garage sale bin... for a quarter. My loss. Bummer."
300497,1,Defective Battery,"Like many many others I bought ""top of the line"" only to be confronted with a defective machine...same symptoms, battery discharges early and can't be satiisfactorily recharged. I would think with all the reviews Norelco (Phillips) would get on this problem quickly. Word of mouth is going to damage their sales mightely.I'm sending mine back, hoping that by this time they'll have fixed the problem. I'll let you know. Meanwhile I wont shave.Added 9 June 2006:Norelco finally fixed the problem (a bad transistor) and now it works flawlessly. I get 100 shaves on each charging. CHANGE MY RATING TO 5 STARS now"
300572,1,Broke within 2 months,I would have to agree with the previous reviewer that said the stroller is not very sturdy. The same thing happened to my 2 year olds stroller. Within 2 months the back had broken out and it is stuck in the fully reclined position. It is very frustrating to my daughter who rarely plays with it now because the dolls keep falling out. Otherwise it was a great toy.
300594,1,This is an Unmanaged Switch,This is NOT a smart switch. It does NOT have:Smart Web ManagementFlexible QoSConfigurable 802.1Q VlansStatic Link AggregationDo Not buy this switch.
300642,1,DANGEROUS! Broken snaps slashed and bloodied my baby!,"Please anyone who owns this stroller check all snaps. The snaps on the rear seat broke and left very sharp and jagged metal. While changing my baby she rubbed her arm against the side and ended up with a 3"" gash on her arm gushing blood. That ended our trip at the zoo. I did not know what cut my daughter until I pulled the pad away and received a nice cut myself. I have used this stroller fewer than 20 times. We have been very gentle on it. I did not realize the snaps had broke because I've always covered the seats.I did call Evenflo and they offered a replacement or a refund. I did not need to provide Evenflo with a receipt or other proof of purchase. So hopefully your child will not be injured and you won't be stuck with a dangerous stroller. -refund check was $149-"
300707,1,very rough,these might be better for my baby but they are way too rough for her delicate skin...would not buy again...
300710,1,not exciting,"This is one of Seagal's lesser efforts. All actors end up in some clunkers and this is one of Steven's. I feel he's been in 12 great movies and so it's not unusual to have some duds. The Patriot, The Foreigner, Out For A Kill, and Ticker are duds, but the other dozen films are worth a look and fun stuff."
300716,1,Don't bother,"I was looking for a paper cutter for small projects that I occasionally run into as a designer (prototyping, photo trimming, etc). I bought this item because of the other reviews on this page. I first noticed an issue when trimming photo paper - the trimmer wouldn't cut all the way through the photo paper I was cutting. I was using the guides on the trimmer to find my cuts. The guides were good. The second issue was noted when I was trimming to a mark (not using the guides). There is no way to line up the trim line (know where the blade will strike)."
300749,1,too general,"This book is about incorparating, and only at its very end it becomes about incorporating in Nevada. If you need to know about the many kinds of corporations available or how to raise money for you company,go ahead and buy it. But remember you are going to find an entire chapter on general tax strategies and few lines about Nevada tax information, ending with:""if you require further information, please contact the Department of Taxation at (702) 687-4820"". I hope that having the number already here may save you the cost of this book...."
300771,1,Underwhelmed,I have had my bread keeper and cutting guide for approx. 2 weeks. The bread keeper and cutting guide have a nice clean appearance. Its functionality leaves much to be desired. The keeper is large and sometimes awkward to handle. I much prefer a used bread wrapper. The slicing guide is set for slices that are to thin. I find some of my breads falling apart after slicing.I no longer use the keeper/slicing guide. I have cleaned it up and will be offering it to some lucky person at my next garage sale.
300816,1,Not worth the money,"I found this book to be a total yawn. It's a sewing book, and it's very outdated. Within a few months of buying it, I gave it away. I went on to make my own hats using adapted vintage patterns. Don't waste your time, find more modern means! Like Juliet Bawden's Hat Book"
300827,1,world in conflict,save your money.The world at War series or Nazis;A Warning from history are a much superior product.Conflict is more like a timeline of the war without going into depth of the war or the causes.
300996,1,STAY AWAY!!,"People, do NOT waste your money on this DVD player. It worked decently for about 9 months, then died completely. It fails to recognize any disc whatsoever. Before dying, it was extremely sensitive and very glitchy, plus it would shut itself off if you had it paused for over 3 minutes, and then not remember where the film left off. This is an absolutely TERRIBLE player and I'm sure you can get something more reliable for much cheaper."
301023,1,Poor Craftsmanship,"After reading many of the above reviews I decided to purchase this model today. I set it up and we were excited to make apple crisp for dessert. Into our 4th apple the ""cast iron"" portion of the crank handle snapped off in my son's hand, leaving behind a very sharp edge. My experience has been that cast iron lasts a generation or more, not 3.5 apples. I will take this back and find one that is made in America with some real quality. Learned my lesson!"
301033,1,The dies are too fragile,"Less than one month after puchasing this pasta machine all of the pasta dies have broken. The ring nuts cannot hold the dies in place and they break. Maybe it is because I was making semolina pasta, but that should not be the case. This machine has caused me way too much stress at dinner time. Knowing what I know now I would buy fresh pasta at the store."
301085,1,battery is very bad,This product has one BIG flaw. If the battery goes dead everything is lost. The back up battery does not work. There is no way to protect yourself if you remove the battery unless you back up daily. The battery case opens often and the battery falls out. I have lost data so many times that I am replacing this product. I like all the other features. The battery problem is a deal breaker.
301113,1,Garmin Forerunner 305 w/Heart Rate,"I purchased this unit primarily for use as a heart rate monitor -- but it seemed to have a lot of ""nice"" features in addition. It is far to complex for my intended use. The unit is heavy, I would hate to have to try and wear it as a runner! The readout for HR was too small and too difficult to set up. I have returned this unit and will purchase a much simpler HR unit from the wide selection on Amazon."
301153,1,Too much for this listener,"Apparently a lot of people are really into this disc. That is great.There was a lot of hype surrounding this disc, so I picked it up. Don't get me wrong, these guys have chops pouring out of every orifice, but I can't remember a lyrically good song on the disc, or even a chorus for that matter. This disc would have been somewhat interesting with no vocals, but the vocals just throw a wrench into everything.If you are into REALLY technical metal, I assume you will go to bed with this disc under your pillow. If you are more of a progressive metal fan, like me, pick up Kamelot's new album, it has the cheese factor, but it is very decent."
301168,1,Not for grading,"I bought these to grade papers. However, the pencils mark so lightly and unreliably that they are unusable."
301191,1,Proof that popularity has nothing to do with quality,"What a waste of time, money, air, breath, fake blood, stunt men, wirework, etc, etc, ad nauseam (and there was a lot of that). This is just crap. It doesn't even get any better on double speed when they all sound like Chip and Dale.Tarantino is the nerdy kid that got picked on at school all grown up and now he's laughing as he takes his vengeance out on you the viewer.Watch anything else, for your own sake, please. I mean that, anything. Well, maybe not 'Battlefield Earth' but even then it's a toss up."
301198,1,waste of money,"Beyond stupid. I'm a big fan of action movies but I like somewhat realistic stuff. This...Too much animation, bad acting(just like one of the reviewers said) and whole thing appeared to have been written by a 12 year old boy."
301217,1,Very confusing and for real dummies.,"I think this book was very confusing. It was very difficult to find things about different subjects because the index and the summary didn't give me many choices and information. And the content is only for real dummies. As I have an intermediate knowledgment of Internet, it was not very useful for me. At least the language is very friendly and easy."
301249,1,BULL!!!!!!,I MUST SAY I WAS EXPECTING A LOT MORE THAN I GOT WITH THIS BOOK. IT CONSISTS MOSTLY OF SCRIPTURE QUOTES AND DECLARATIONS THAT GOD IS GREAT. I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THAT THE GOD I KNOW HAS ANGELS STATIONED IN CHURCHES WITH CLIP BOARDS RECORDING THE EXACT AMOUT EVERYBODY DONATES TO THE CHURCH AND THEIR ATTITUDE ABOUT THEIR DONATIONS. I WOULD HOPE THAT OUR EVERLASTING SOUL WAS DEPENDANT ON MORE THAN ATTENDING CHURCH SERVICES EVERY SUNDAY AND PAYING TITHING. I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT GO TO CHURCH AND PAY THEIR TITHING AND SCREW OVER THEIR FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS ON MONDAY.THERE IS NOTHING NEW OR REVOLUTIONARY ABOUT THIS BOOK OR IT'S CONTENTS. VERY VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!!
301262,1,Ouch!,"Horrible product - just a bunch of old footage with commentary by a couple of wankers. Stick with authorized, official RHCP products. This is a waste of time and money."
301286,1,poor quality,"I bought this camera for my many snorkeling trips worldwide. The first trip I took it on was the Maldives and I was really excited to get some great underwater shots. I took it out on the reef in fairly calm conditions and the camera failed and never would turn back on. I was really upset at this but figured that the company would replace it, however when I sent it to them they said the seals were fine so they would not replace it. WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY!!!!"
301457,1,BIG disappointment,"Like many other purchasers, I am a teacher. I bought this for my classroom. It died after 3 months. My husband dissected it and discovered a piece is missing - and one of the gears is PLASTIC, so it was guaranteed to fail. I'm just ticked that I get $2/per child for art supplies for the whole year and this took up the allocation for 16 students."
301463,1,Not for heavy duty or regular use,We purchased this product for use in an industrial setting. Worked well for a coupleof weeks then started to sharpen off center and now chews up the pencils. Not recommendedfor regular usage.
301468,1,Why the $10.00 price increase?,"I love this product and have been buying it for years but why has the price gone up so drastically? I have bought this 6 bottle case for years and have paid $22.95 with ""subscribe and save"" and now it's $32.84! That's almost a $10.00 increase since the last time I purchased it in only 4 months ago. With the environmentally friendly industry now expanding by leaps and bounds and so many other choices out there, I'm not sure why this company would want to drive away customers by such a radical price change. What a shame; I have now cancelled my subscription and am looking for another product or supplier."
301501,1,worst game ever!,"My 4 year old son got this game for Christmas. He is a big game lover and when we played it, he said ""this is the dumbest game Santa ever brought me""! No matter what level you have it on, it does not buck. Every time we've played it we get all the pieces on and then my son pushes down on the whole thing to make it buck. What a waste of $17! I am taking it right back to Toys R US. Please don't waste your money on this!!!"
301549,1,Very Disapointing,I have loved Scott Turow's previous books. This one is one of the worst books I've ever read cover to cover. It just got more tedious and less interesting as it went along. The ending was pitiful.
301578,1,Motorola OEM BR50 Battery,"Purchased battery for Razr cell phone. Charged it fully, and it failed to hold charge for more than a few hours. Good price, but lousy product.Seller shipped another battery pronto at no charge, which I appreciate. The second battery, date stamped 10/17/2008 in new wrapper will hold a charge for only about 12 hours. Don't like to bother seller again, but somehow need a better battery."
301580,1,wishy washy,This book is an interesting read. Its interesting to read about the author's interpretation of skiing movements. But there is very little practical help within. Basically each chapter goes on for a while discussing some point of skiing and then has a couple drills.How do I know if I'm doing the drills correctly?How does all this information work together?Basically there is very little structure to this book and does not present a clear framework for improvement.
301617,1,Amazon gave me a refund,"I was also disappointed that the product came without a DVD, though the initial description said so. But Amazon has given me the refund of the whole purchase price. Appreciate their gesture.Agree with previous reviewer that the pump is really hard to work with. It took a *lot* of time to get the ball inflated and the pump got hot meanwhile.Yeah, not very happy with this product.p.s: Contrastingly, had a bad experience with Dell on a similar situation when I bought a Nikon camera. Dell blamed the wrong description on Nikon and expectedly, Nikon blamed Dell. Neither owned up the error. But Amazon was pretty good. I really appreciate it."
301750,1,unsatisfied,"The mouse is too large for my hand so I cannot use all the features built into it. It has been less than two months since I purchased this item and the scrolling feature is not working well ... if at all. When I try to ""scroll down"" in my email accounts and my websites, the scroll bar moves down in small ""jerks"", and the wheel is not much better. Further when I switch users, I must unconnect the USB cable and then reconnect for the mouse to work at all. I am a very frustrated and unhappy ""camper"" with a problem that I am unsure of what to do. I cannot be efficiently productive with a ""misbehaving"" mouse. Someone have a suggestion? I do not want to be replacing my mouse everytime I turn around. This is the third one in a year's time."
301791,1,STAY AWAY,"What kind of crap is this. EA's developers are too F*ck!ng stupid to create an installer that can utilize any drive. Instead it only looks to your C drive and will not allow you to install the game/patches if there is not atleast 3Gigs there. I have over 400Gig free space on my system spread across multiple partitions but its not in the system partition so I can't install this game I just puchased. EA, Digital Illusions.... YOU SUCK, why don't you go to the local high schools and find some real programmers.If you are even contemplating this game make sure you have the required disk space on your C drive for install, this is above and beyond the actual install of the game and not necessarily where you installed Battlefield 2 or where you will install the expansion.I'm sure the game itself is fun if you EVER get to play it, as for myself I will be returning the game to my local EB store tomorrow and writting an equally if not harsher Email to EB support."
301795,1,Not Lean and Very Outdated,"Months ago, before I knew any better, I would have rated this 5 stars. But ever since getting into Lean Methodology and all the requirements for making a lean Startup, I realize that this book only worked in the era of slow moving and giant companies. Nowadays, you have to be customer-focused and agile to hang with the big players. This book makes you take on too much waste early on. For a beginner, I suggest you start with something like the Four Steps to Epiphany, and other books and blogs recommended by Steve Blank and Eric Ries. You might still want to read this to compare and contrast like a before and after, but seriously, this book belongs in a museum.P.S. Some of the Legal advice is spot on though"
301838,1,This movie sucks harder than CGI vampires,"No dramatic tension whatsoever, no surprises, hinges entirely on FX and computer graphics. Initially promises some tounge-in-cheek horror and witty one-liners but delivers an endlessly boring and intensely annoying barrage of loud horrible music, unsurprising explosions and silly CGI characters. Might have been ok much shorter and as a spoof. As it stands, it's not even a farce, it's just a rancid pile of vomit. It reeks - an actual cinematic turd! Am I being too harsh? - I could go on. As nutty as squirrel poo!"
301879,1,"You will be very disappointed if you purchase this rifle - Broke in 2.5 minutes , I have 45 years of gun handling and knowledge","This product is cheaply made and will break. 2.5 minute out of the box , a very very thin plastic part which holds the barrel in place after loading broke , the barrel then floats back and forth and gas leaks past , decreased pressure isn't enough to make the pellet leave the barrel , and in a semi auto that means maybe 1 or 2 or 3 pellets lodged in barrlel."
301992,1,Wrong Gasket,"Not sure it it was due to an error in listing or they sent the wrong one. The old Valve Cover Gasket had lots of holes for the bolts, this one didn't have enough. Definitely not the right gasket for an 88 Jeep Wrangler YJ 4.2 liter"
302104,1,Somebody kill me please!,"I have never watched a more boring DVD in my life! I was SOOOO looking forward to this DVD but it is so long & drawn out, most of it is Storm & his wife playing VERY new-agey music. Every monologue needs editing. EG: Storm tells a story of his son racing him up a hill - it went on & on & on with lengthy descriptions of his son gaining on him, running, running, running - I started fast forwarding - the story was still going - fast forward again - still going - it must go for 10 minutes & all it is about is his son's stamina in running up a hill! It is a very self indulgent amaturish video of Storm's rants about, well, everything & I suspect it's real aim is to flog their music. Do not waste your money there are far better, more informative & more interesting DVDs on the raw lifestyle!"
302221,1,"What a mess, a sad ending to a great career.","I watched this movie with my jaw hitting the floor in disbelief. Altman's classics like Nashville had a rambling, ad-libbed quality that enhanced that film and gave great depth to the characters and their performances. Atlman will be remembered for the long leash he held his actors on. Prairie Home Companion has flashes of that technique but any sense of drama or comedy is missing from this rambling mess. The little structure the film contains is introduced by a just awful film noir character played by Kevin Kline. There is also a cheesy ""woman or dame in white"" which ""haunts"" the theatre and sucks away any momentum the stage performers come close to providing. The whole mess ends with childish ""Twilight Zone"" only not as good nor surprising twist. This is film is really nothing more than a great cast having a blast with one of the greatest directors. Unfortunately is pretty much un-watchable for anyone that was not involved."
302375,1,Generally Useless and a Waste of Money,"I have both this Chiltons Fiero manual and Haynes Fiero manual. I have reviewed both at the Haynes Fiero manual page, and as both are nearly the same in content, both fall way short of any use other than very basic information. See that review for details:Pontiac Fiero '84'88 (Haynes Manuals)"
302406,1,Can't tell a difference,It seems to be a good moisturiser but can't really tell any tone change. It smells like food cooking ..... not sure what that's all about but the smell is weird for lotion.
302415,1,Entertaining but not great,"i don't want to rip on the author. it was a fun story. I suspect there are thousands of pilots out there who have better stories and more interesting experiences than jackson but he is just the guy who actually found a ghost writer to sit down and put his stuff in book form.It just seems like this was mostly about sitting around the camp and complaining about how bad things were when, as the author acknowledges, they had it infinitely better than anybody else in vietnam except for the pencil pushers.If you are interested in Vietnam, there are many, nay more books I would recommend reading before I read this one. Matterhorn is a great recent piece of fiction which is spot on. bright, shining lie is also a great one as is Unfortunate Son.Jackson is a little to self-involved for my taste. He tries to be humble in this book - genuinely tries but ends up failing. Just not a lot here sorry to say."
302517,1,Not a good CD at all...,"The Backstreet Boys, well, let's just say that they lack talent. Frankly, I personally think that they suck. BSB, and N Sync, and 98*, all of those groups. I mean, I respect THEM I suppose, and I respect all you girls who like them (well, I respect your music TASTE even though I don't know WHY you'd like em in the first place...), but really-- they have no talent whatsoever. All of these groups, especially BSB have no originality. All they do is sing about these stupid love songs that some old guy penned for them. They don't play their own instruments, don't write their own lyrics, and don't choreograph their own dance moves (the fact that they dance is bad enough, not bothering to make them up themself is even worse). If you like this group, yeah, go buy the CD... But I don't know why you would, since it's just like every other male group cd out there-- sugary sweet with sappy love songs filled with fake emotion and passion that they've never experienced before."
302542,1,Wasted Talent,"No longer a teeny-bopper, I've listened to Pop & Dance music all my life. I'm not afraid to say I like boybands. This includes BSB. Their 1st album was great, but 'MILLENNIUM' was VERY disappointing. With the exception of 2 hit ballads (IWITW & SMTMOBL), the rest of the album is a big snore. They can do much better than this. I suggest they get some new ppl to work with, because their up-tempo songs are beginning to all sound the same. Maybe they can even take hints from 'N SYNC, whose new CD 'NO STRINGS ATTACHED' shows true INNOVATION & EXPERIMENTATION. BSB better change their sound or they will be left in the dust! The wave of the future is up-tempo, R&B, or electronic sounds. That's what the 'MILLENNIUM' should be all about."
302548,1,WORTHLESS!!,"I have been buying products from Amazon for years but this is the only one that was really a waste of money. Description indicates that it ""removes hair""but it is actually a razor or it would be if it shaved any hair. It does not ""remove"" or shave hair. Don't waste your money. Buy a disposible razor, it is cheaper and it actually works."
302596,1,*boos*,"The tea didn't make me drowsy in the slightest and tasted nasty. I've barely had tea in my life, so I checked to make sure I was doing it right the second time, including adding a second bag of tea to see if I just had low sensitivity, but still nothing happened, and it just tasted nastier. Judging by the other reviews, I guess I'm unlucky?"
302607,1,Songs from other CD's repackaged,"Well if I had known I was just buying the same tracks from previous CD's, I'd have saved my money. The music is good but I feel ripped off as I have Living with the past and A little light music already. Thanks Sony!"
302663,1,Does not work with WD type weather direct products,"The low rating is for the product description, not the product!My WD-3103U (obtained at Costco) lost its sensor, so I ordered this thinking it would work because the writeup said ""The TX6U transmitter works with all La Crosse Technology models except for ""The Professional Weather Center"" Series: WS-2010, WS-2210, WS-2310, WS-2315 and WS-2510.""Since my model wasn't specified here, I thought it would work. It didn't.LaCrosse tech support said ""Only the TX50 will sync to the Weather Direct displays."""
302785,1,Worked for 30 minutes,"Worked for 30 minutes while I was setting up wired connection and then died: it does not pan or tilt, the light is flashing yellow, reset button does not change anything. Panasonic CS said it was defective... go figure."
302802,1,Disappointed,"This CD was recommended to me by a Hammond Organ site and I am very disappointed both in the quality of the recording as well as in the quality of the musicians. Perhaps there was a terrible mistake, but the CD I listened to is awful."
302943,1,Terrible Terrible Novel,"If you think that WWF is good drama with interesting characters than this book is for you. There is barely a semblance of a plot, the characters are not developed beyond any stereotype of good vs. bad, and the book seems to exist in order to describe very very non-creative ways to kill people. With a tag line of ""There are only two good guys and one of them is {gasp} a lawyer."" this author is obviously pandering to the lowest most uneducated group of American culture."
302944,1,Awful,"I tried my best to get through this book, but it was awful. After reading half of it, I was wondering what plot the writer had in mind as it seemed to ramble through the different characters with no point in site. I was very disappointed with the style and have read a lot of the ""Florida"" author's books, but this doesn't compare favorably with Hiassen, Buchanan, Shames or Corcoran. Read works of some of these authors instead."
303043,1,... More like BlueSTINKER,"This game just plain s****. Like all Resident Evil games and it's ilk. Your characters moonwalk around the levels trying to kill the baddies. Control is terrible, you can't quite do exactly what you want to do when you want to. Graphics are good, about the 50th percentile. Camera angles are the worst and hardest enemy in the game, you are constantly fighting them. Mouths move out of sync with words during the FMV sequences, like a bad Bruce Lee movie... You will laugh and you will cry, all because you made the mistake of shelling out $$$ on this.SegaCide"
303071,1,Don't Buy it,... First of all the play control can get really annoying because it's slippery. Second the graphics are better than the ps and n64 versions but there not even close to Dreamcast's full potential. Third the mission objectives are really pointless. Don't buy it or rent it.
303111,1,Just buy the bit you need,Needed Torx #10 screwdriver and I saw that this set costs little more than that 1 screwdriver.Fast-forward to the actual job and the #10 Torx was a little too small for the job and screwed-up all my screw-heads to the point that I was unable to screw them back-in after taking them out (had to buy new screws).The morale of the story is that if something sounds too good to be true (30 precision bits for the price of one) it probably is too good to be true.The other lesson for me was that if I needed one tool I don't need to buy 29 other that I don't need?
303121,1,It's a no go...Will not work with Digital Media,"Camera will not work with CompactFlash or other digital media cards. You must buy a cartridge of tape, which allows for just 24 shots. No LCD screen for image playback. Extremely frustrated and returned item.UPDATE: After reading some of the comments, I conducted extensive research into ""film photography"" over the last two days and I now understand a fair amount about the subject. As a result, I have no plans to reorder the F6, but I do have a shipment of film canisters (Kodak) coming so that I can test them in my brand new Digital Nikon SLR. I think it is remarkable how old technology like filmstrips can produce resolution greater than my CompactFlash cards. Seeing will be believing."
303293,1,This is not like the heart-warming movie!,"Thought I was buying a simple, quick read for the holiday spirit, but the book was dreary, complex, and the characters are dark."
303341,1,not the the,"be forewarned. this is not THE Matt Johnson of THE THE., but a rather less than mediocre matt johnson."
303358,1,DO YOU NEED TO BE A CLASSICAL AFFICIONADO TO LIKE THIS ONE?,I'M AFRAID I DEDFENITELY DO NOT LIKE THIS CD-IT'S VERYBORING TO ME. I LOVE ALL PIANO AND ORCHESTRA MUSIC BUTI'M AFRAID THIS IS THE WORST I HAD TO PUT UP WITH. SORRY-I JUST DID NOT FIND ANY REDEMEEING QUALATIES IN THIS ONE.
303359,1,Ok,"I really wanted to read all the books in this series, but I just don't think I'll be able to. They all sound the same. It's a good read, if you just want a way to pass the time. Not a nail biter that leaves you hanging, like I enjoy. I started with the first one, and I think this is #3."
303419,1,False Advertising - Beware,"Bought this item based on the picture but the product we received looks nothing like the picture or the description. The ones we received are smaller and barely latch. The tops come off real easily. They are basically useless. The package says that they are great for glitter, spices, and decorating candies. Definitely not salt and pepper shakers for in a lunch pail.Be aware of what you what you are purchasing. The ones sold for $3-$4 are not the ones in the picture. This is false advertising and needs to be taken care of. The sellers who are in on this should be ashamed of themselves."
303429,1,Never received,Never received item. It was not in stock and took way to long to get so had to cancel. Very disappointed.
303504,1,mr charlie payne,"would not use this product anymore nor would i tell any one to by this item , does not work very well. shakes to much to use."
303523,1,Beyond horrible,I can honestly say without a doubt HIM is one of the worst things I've heard in a while. I'm half Finn and I really hope they have better music to offer than this. The nu metal-looking band members make horrible music that would sound better as a soundtrack to an 80's Italian barbarian movie. The singer is incredibly awful. He cannot sing. David Bowie can sing. Jeff Buckley could sing. Not this dickListen to Dax Riggs of Acid Bath instead. His band Deadboy and the Elephant Men is better than this in more ways than one.
303575,1,Not very good...,I could only read an hour of this. I always hate doing this to my own brethren but I can't recomend this book.
303670,1,[weak],"This is an abyssally written, horribly researched, inaccurate, unorganized babble of idle gossip about some truly great artists and writers. The author should not attempt to write about things beyond his limited ken. What a travesty that a publisher would agree to print such garbage!"
303716,1,Too tight,I thought mild compression was mild but this was not to mild for a sensitive foot with swelling. My feet swelled below ankle so it made my one day to wear miserable. Be aware of mild compression and no compression if you are diabetic.Ask your doector what his recommend for you is first. The foot part had no compression just the top.
303728,1,Another bad buy,"The description doesn't say there are only 2 keys. Why would anyone want 4 locks & 2 keys? Guess they forgot to mention that little gem. How 'bout that?Yet another item at Amazon with a poor description leading to problems. My advise: Read the other reviews carefully since that's the only accurate, helpful information you're going to get. Rely on nothing from Amazon.Added: Locks are cheaper & better at Lowe's. Less cost, thicker shackles (also not in the description)"
303745,1,No big deal.,"So, what was the hype really all about? I wasn't impressed and paid a lot of money for this because of the intrigue. Maybe it'll be worth something to a collector some day?"
303780,1,Not The Best Of Heath,"The music is dated. Not one of the latest band versions by Heath. Music is more like early forties or late thirties. Heath has made many better recordings shortly before his death. Look of these albums to really get the full appreciation of his music.In The Lounge indicates ""Listen To My Music, Heath's theme song, is part of the menu. It is merely a few spoken thoughts from Heath with a few bars of the theme."
303789,1,not all that,it looks good. but not as sharp as i expected. don't waste your money. i have the 4 star henckels bread knife and in my opinion is alot sharper. it's also cheaper. good luck.
303943,1,Not worth the money,"This is the biggest waste of money possible. Every two sentences, it tells you to go to PlayOnline if you need more help and doesn't give any helpful information in the actual book. Save your money, there are a lot of good free walkthroughs on the web already and even the one on PlayOnline is free, or wait for an unofficial strategy guide, it will be worth more than this."
304001,1,"Poorly written, poorly researched","Why do I keep wasting my money on books written by this author? I should have learned my lesson after buying his awful ""The Bell Tower"" (Jack the Ripper) and his even worse ""Zodiac Unmasked"" (Zodiac killer).Well, after reading ""Amerithrax"" with all of its factual inaccuracies and research blunders, Graysmith's writing career will have to be funded by someone else."
304014,1,Disappointing.,"This book is 482 pages long, and the second half of it is not Lightwave-(or even 3D)-specific: general concepts of animation like follow-through, squash-and-stretch, etc. Everything in this section has been said before, and more eloquently, in many other books on the topic of animation.The first half (which IS Lightwave-specific) is a step-by-step tutorial for building a rather esoteric IK rig for a humanoid character. I didn't find it helpful--nothing in the exercises seems designed to expand the reader's understanding, it's just a recipe for reconstructing Albee's rig. I suspect any reader without a previous understanding of how bones work in Lightwave will be completely frustrated.If you're a beginner looking for a technical resource to animating in Lightwave, this is definitely *not* it. Any potential buyers should browse through a copy before buying this."
304149,1,Not much of a holocaust movie,"This movie barely touches on the holocaust. Some of scenes that it does show from the holocaust were actually scenes from when the people were liberated, not when they were being brought to the camp, which made me think that the movie was just thrown together, grabbing a few scenes from youtube. I could probably say in one breath the amount that was quoted from the diary. It's more a movie about a woman who doesn't get along with her mother, is popular on her radio talk show, and her marriage is in trouble. Then there's some stuff about a woman in Poland who left her diary to her daughter. It's not a good movie no matter what tags you put on it because the acting is bad and the story line is worse. Save your money and skip this one."
304158,1,No battery pack included!,"Without a battery pack, which was supposed to be included in the purchase, according to ScatMat instructions, the ScatMat is useless. What should I do?"
304194,1,"Great potential, sabotaged","I'm a huge fan of this genre but unfortunately, this one gets bogged down by the overabundance of wiccan references and language, which are really distracting and over the top. Hookups happen all too improbably and as other reviewers have pointed out, characters with great promise never get developed and are left as literary stereotypes (the blonde aloof girl turns out to be a fighter! The Tolkein-obsessed misfit turns out to be a heroine!) It's an interesting story but I kept getting pulled out of it by these missteps."
304274,1,transmission quality,"everyone complains about my cingular transmission quality, lots of dropped calls and bald spots everywhere, i can't even call home from a block away, in boston. it's hard to believe when they say they have the best network. no roaming is great and the rollover deal is good, i would change though and try another carrier if there wasn't a cancellation fee"
304336,1,not complete seasons,they are not complete seasons although very good but should be titled the best of rather than season one and two
304395,1,Not the best lock,"I guess the rating really depends what you expect from this lock. If you need to keep something secure then look elsewhere. If you want to make something look like it's locked then this might do the trick. I didn't need much security for my purposes so this has worked fine for me so far, but I'm almost surprised at how flimsy it feels. I wish I had gotten something just a bit better because I think it would be worth it for the peace of mind."
304413,1,More hysteria from Ravi Batra,"In case you don't know, Ravi Batra is also the author of ""The Great Depression of 1990."" I know what you're asking yourself: there was a depression in 1990? No, there wasn't. But Dr. Batra predicted one. Now, with ""Stock Market Crashes of 1998 and 1999,"" the arch doomsayer is at it again, predicting dire times ahead when any sensible person knows better. Batra doesn't know as much economics as even the average college undergraduate. He decries free trade as if he's utterly unaware of the benefits of a division of labor. (If protectionism between countries is good, what about between states? Or cities? Or people?) If you're interested in learning something about the economy, try ""The Myth of Rich and Poor"" by Cox and Alm. Down Batra's way only madness lies."
304461,1,"Leaks, leaks, leaks","I have tried Huggies in the past and should have known better. I can buy ANY other brand of diapers for my kids with no problems, but we always have issues with Huggies. I have tried these with all 5 of my kids and we have always had issues with leaking out the sides (especially overnight). I have learned my lesson and will not buy Huggies anymore."
304472,1,Junk,"Wow! I guess I should feel lucky. My MVR650 didn't start eating tapes until months after I bought it. Well, not eating them outright, anyway. It *always* chewed on them a bit. From the beginning fast forwarding would scrape the oxide off the tape (that section would never be watchable again) but it didn't actually start refusing to release the tape for several months. Shutting itself off as soon as you inserted a tape didn't start for months either along with ejecting that cassette once you turned it back on. Oh, but I said it wouldn't release the tape, didn't I? Well it would eject the *cassette*, but that doesn't mean it would release the *tape*.I lived with this piece of junk so long because it is hard to find a VCR these days narrow enough to fit on my shelf. Everyone seems to have gone to those 17 inch behemoths."
304494,1,Does NOT work with iPod Nano 5G (5th generation),"The title says it all. It doesn't work with my new iPod Nano 5G. The iPod just plays music through it's own little speaker, rather than routing it through this cable. :("
304532,1,WARNING: DO NOT CONTAIN EXTENDED EDITIONS,"I wish I could give this NO STARS. How careless I was not to read the reviews of this item. When I saw it had almost 5 stars compared to the 1.6 stars for The Wizard's Collection, I purchased it. When we watched the first movie and got to the scene where Hagrid comes to rescue Harry from the island his uncle and aunt take him too we were wondering where the full scene was. We have it on the DVD we bought years ago, but now have Blu Ray. Then we found other extended scenes were missing. As we only bought the first three movies on DVD years ago, we decided to get the Blu Ray set. How disappointing this set is. And I hear The Wizard's Collection is even worse.For us die hard fans who were so hoping for the extended editions and more, there is a petition on the internet. I think you cannot put a direct link into the review so I will break it up. It is at: [...]"
304544,1,Bad Quality,"This set Bluray DVD is not 16:9. The vedios don't look like Bluray quality at all. The only difference between this set and the regular DVD set is that you can play them on your Bluray player. Just don't expect true Bluray quality, though."
304570,1,Terrible!,"This is one of the most user UN-friendly devices I have ever purchased. I have several bluetooth devices which are easy to setup and work great. These headphones take a great deal of trial and error and guest work to set up. When I finally did get them up and running, the sound quality was very disappointing.I am amazed how (apparently) difficult it is to build good sounding stereo headphones (I could care less about stereo phonecalls). I would give this product ""0"" stars-but that is not an option."
304592,1,Not worth it,"After reading the reviews, I thought it'd be a good way to entertain my cat, who enjoys watching animal shows on TV. The quality of the video is not good, however, and more importantly, my cat did not want to watch it at all, even though I held her pointing at it several times. Bottom line is that I think it's a great concept and apparently some cats may like it, but mine did not."
304606,1,Liar Liar,"So disappointed!.. I wanted this log rack because it looked smaller than most and had an interesting and unique design. Turns out it is totally different than the picture. And its not one of those things like ""oh well the website says you can't trust the picture but rather you have to go by the description"".. no, the picture on the BOX is even different than the product inside the box. It was extremely hard to put together. Only has a few pieces, but they don't fit together easily (I had to use a hammer to bang them into shape and then have a friend help me push them together with all our strength). Liar liar, pants on fire... cheap product and incorrect item picture. Opt for something else."
304625,1,Not worth carrying home,"The very first time I used this product I smelled a burning smell. After checking it out closer, it was damaged and I never was able to make any juice. Would not recommend this model."
304683,1,...,"I bought this item last year and although it does what I need it to, I found there to also be a few too many glitches with the product.For example, as a result of my loading PCSync onto my computer, it won't shut down all the way. I must now manually shut it off. I attempted to rectify this situation but found that the technical support folks at PCsync/Laplink are the absolute worst. They have a huge attitude and are very bitter. And to add insult to injury, they don't seem to have very much knowledge in regard to the product. It goes without saying that they were unable to rectify the shutdown issue.If you don't mind the inconvenience of the shut down issue each time you turn off your computer, then get the product."
304719,1,Not Impressed,"Although there is a lot of information packed into this book, I was very unimpressed with the layout and visual design. It looks like it was typed up in 1970. The graphics are ancient and the layout is just one big binder with no cross-referencing or indexing available. To find a useful game, you have to sift through hundreds of pages. It really is a shame, as there are some clever games here to loosen up an audience.Frankly for this price, I expected something a bit flashier and filled with reproducibles that I would want to copy and hand out. The way it looks now, and with it's unwieldy format, it's going to sit on my shelf.If I hadn't spilled water on it, I would have sent it back for a refund."
304772,1,not worth it,This was not what I thought I was getting; a very short DVD. Not worth purchasing. Save your money and buy a different one or go on youtube and find much more then was on this DVD.
304773,1,obviously biased analysis,"As an attorney with a background in antitrust law, I was anxious to find a book that could cut through all the hype surrounding the Microsoft case. McKenzie approaches the case with an obvious axe to grind in favor of Microsoft; now, that's okay, as long as he still makes rational arguments. But his argumentation reads like a law school student trying to prove his antitrust professor wrong. I will give just one example--he argues that Microsoft isn't a ""monopolist"" because they ""only"" control 90% of the market. Anyone familiar with antirtrust law knows that the term ""monopoly"" need not be taken literally, and that market power can be exercised by a firm controlling far, far less than 90% of a market. Such spurious argumentation make you wonder if Bill Gates didn't subsidize this book."
304776,1,Does not work with Mac OS or Windows XP!,"This game will not work on a Mac with OS X 10.5 or above! It must run in classic mode. See Disney's support page:[...]Also this game will not work if you are running Window's XP and your system has more than 1 GB of memory (and what PC doesn't these days). If you do you will see this msg : Error: Dollhouse.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.Again see Disney's support page:[...]So, a house full of Mac's and PC's and this game will not run on any of them! Stay away from this out of date game!!!!!!"
304865,1,For Beginners Only,"I have been doing martial arts for almost six years and bought this book looking for new ways to develop speed and strength that directly relate to martial arts. I found the book to be very elementary, it lists different suggested workouts for different arts, but they are just a different combination of simple exercises such as pushups and body weight squats. If you have never done martial arts or followed a workout plan before, this is a good beginner book. If you're already working out or have been doing martial arts for more than a year, I'd look elsewhere."
304986,1,New Formula Doesn't Work as Well,"The old Grant's Ant formula containing arsenic worked very well. The new formula contains 1% Hydromethylnon, which I think that the ants are able to sense. Using the old product with arsenic the ants kept eating and taking back to the nest until the whole colony died. When I used the new formula the ants ate for a few minutes then stopped feeding and then ignored the bait."
305039,1,Horrible,"A ""friend"" of mine bought this album for me for my birthday. I will return the favor on her birthday and mail her a stale fruit cake. This is one of the most annoying and irritating albums I've ever heard. The lyrics are laughably bad, but I can't listen because the music and his voice are just horrible. Don't even think of buying this crappy album"
305070,1,dont buy!!!!!!,"I have a gamo bigat cat 1250 and I had like 5 bucks left on gift card so I ordered them knowing that they are cheap pellets,but they were so bad i just tossed them in the woods!!! literally!!!!! I taped 4 sheets of blank paper together at 20 yards and i aimed in the middle and it hit 5 inches to the left (P.S i was using a shooting tool so the rifle was completely steady)then i shot another one and i aimed at the center again and it hit a tree that was to the right of the target that was about 5 feet away!!!!! then i shot another and it want way low of the target and completely missed it dont bbbbbuuuuuuyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i had to give it one star but i wish i could of gave it 0 stars!!"
305102,1,Better suited as a soft hearted magazine article,"The title of this book does not describe the content. If you are looking for a guide to help you make the decision to foster parent or guide you through the process this is not it. This book is best suited as a soft hearted magazine article not a book. The information is first person stories mostly related only to the authors specific situation. The foster parenting info contained in this text is basically household tips, common sense parenting and recipes. The support information for associations is out of date and the only useful reference material fits on two pages. Finding good foster parent material is hard enough as it is, pass this one by."
305116,1,Read John and Anna Kilpatrick Instead,"Alan Proctor is the son of the two very wonderful scholars: John and Anna Kilpatrick. In this book, he took their unpublished notes and add his own commentary. They obviously left this information unpublished because of the volatile nature of the subject. In his comments about Cherokee people and even his own relatives, Alan is both patronizing and insulting. He writes from an Anglo anthropological perspective that is out of touch with the Cherokee community. There are so many other books on Cherokee culture that are far superior to this book."
305157,1,"Want to like it, but don't.","I actually wish I did like this brush! The concept is good but the execution isn't in my opinion. I DO like the suction on the bottom, but that's it.This bottle brush will fit in standard size bottles, you just have to push it in a little harder. I use these on my Dr. Brown's (standard size) bottles. Gross, I know, but there have been a few times where we came across a used bottle we didn't know was missing (fell behind something, or my other child took of with it...). When I went to clean it this brush hardly cleaned the bottom at all, especially around the rounded edges of the bottom of the bottle. Because the brush is such a tight fit and the bristles are very hard, you can't angle it, it's up and down motions only.The thing I hate most about this brush? Pulling it back out of the bottle. The bristles all get compressed to fit back through the bottle neck and then snap back into place literally spraying you with soapy, dirty bottle water."

305190,1,Avoid at all costs!!!,"I have a Tripp Lite Smart1200LCD UPS that has been used gently and sparingly over the last 3 1/2 years and is now completely dead. I contacted Tripp Lite and they said it must be a battery issue as they tend to go bad over time. I ran some tests on the unit and the battery is actually working fine; the UPS unit itself went bad. When I contacted Tripp Lite again to inform them as much and asked if a $200 UPS was only supposed to last 4 years or less, I never even got a reply. This product is garbage and Tripp Lite is an absolute joke of a company."
305266,1,A BAD RETELLING,"When this series first aired, I thought the producers would capture some of the emotive essence of the original tales. Sadly I was wrong. The casting is almost completely inappropriate, with youngsters of the wrong character (for the tales) coupled with banal scripting, make this a complete turn-off, although it has to be said that some of the photography and screenplay is worthy of a look.If you are looking for a good retelling of the Robin Hood legends, the best by a country mile is the series ""Robin of Sherwood"". Although that one was made in the 80s? the characterisation, screenplay and script of the Carpenter production make it stand out as being way ahead of all the others.Don't waste your money on this Robin Hood series."
305359,1,ZERO STAR IS NOT ALLOWED,"I am on the phone with Buffalo right now. If a Buffalo device is out of warrantee, it is a boat anchor. They give lifetime support, but will not sell you any parts. If your hard drive controller fails you can not buy a replacement. Buffalo says you are on your own good luck? Call Buffalo at 800-456-9799 to confirm. I still can not believe when the unit fails, with good drives, you lose your data or need to learn Unix/Linux and figure out how the data is stored. What's the point of buying it in the first place? Great support, but no option to BUY replacement parts. What good is support if you can not order and pay for the parts needed to fix it."
305380,1,"The ""Andrew Dice Clay"" of political thought","This pains me to say this but... this is not a very good book. The major problem with Savage's arguments are that they're based on adrenaline and angst instead of facts that work. When he does make points that are true and accurate, they are usually so over-the-top and bombastic that it makes him seem uncredible. Not everyone that is conservative is this macho and what his book does is make the conservative movement look more angry than it actually is.If you are into books from talkshow hosts, get Hannity, get Limbaugh, get Marvin, skip Savage. He is the ""Andrew Dice Clay"" of political thought."
305393,1,"A degeneration into hatred, spite and lies lies lies","This book is just another symptom of what much of the American Right has degenerated into:A morass of lies, distortion and unadulterated hate.It's not about ideas anymore for this odious branch of conservatism--It's just hysteria, screaming histrionics, and a deep-seated, raving hostility to all opposing viewpoints which comes across as decidedly undemocratic and ultimately, un-American.But that's what sells these days, just like WWF wrestling, violent videos andbad behavior sells to adolescents.Unfortunately, it is so-called adults who are buying this book.How pitiful."
305453,1,Not worth the price,I use it with a Cross Gel rolling ball (0.7mm) refill. Have used the pen for about 3 months. Didn't find ink quality/flow as smooth as a Pilot G2-7 gel ink pens. Cap caused scratches to develop on the the top of outer barrel as well as the black portion of the barrel where one typically holds the pen to write.The blue/chrome combination looks good; but not worth the price given the flimisiness of the finish and quality/flow of ink compared to other (much less expensive) pens.
305476,1,An awful book! A waste of time,I have read many books about womens rights and I agree with many of them. But A Room of One's Own is the most despicable piece of literature that I have every read. Virginia Wolf was a sexest pig who only cared about the advancement of the female race in society. There is nothing wrong with advocating womens rights but Virgia Wolf went too far. I strongly desagree with anyone buying such a pitiful excuse of a essay. Wolf wrote two and a half page paragraphs which just went on and on.
305479,1,ok for dvd's,Install was fairly easy and the DVD player works well. The remote is hard to use as all the buttons feel the same and are arranged in a grid.If you plan to use the remote in the dark you need to turn on a light to see it first.The MP3 DVD/CD option is nice and the capacity to hold 1500 songs on a DVD is awesome. However the shuffle option is poor and it won't play songs listed higher than #250 during the shuffle. Even if you place the MP3's into folders it looks at all of them as they were loaded into one giant folder and stays below #250 during shuffle.The ability to play from an iPod and use the adapter works well.The touch screen has the ability to brighten and dim but the stereo face when the screen is closed is bright blue. It doesn't dim and is often distracting.All in all I like this product but think that it lacks a lot of the small things that would make it more user friendly.
305533,1,Stop getting hot before a year was over,"I bought this in Jan 2012, and in Sept or October is stopped working properly. I spent extra money on this so that I could keep it for a longer time. I loved the features on it and how easy it is to clean. But the oil will not heat up anymore. Ive had it sitting for 30 minutes or more and the oil will not heat up! Do Not buy product. I loved it until it stopped working. Very disappointed!"
305549,1,Missed it,"I may never know why people worshipped this man. Repeated listenings to this album have brought me no closer. Self-indlugent music, shallow lyrics, what's to like? Maybe I will learn . . ."

305747,1,Child Abuse Manual. Completely Un-Christian,"This book has nothing to do with christianity, yet proclaims it. Scripture is twisted and then molded to fit their ideals in this book. The entire thing talks about children as if they were animals, or the devil incarnate. Do NOT buy this book if you love your children. If you do, you wil be taught to not hold or cuddle your infant, beat your 4 month old into submission, and even how to pick out the weapons to use. PLEASE...if you are looking for a christian parenting book, look to Dr. Sears or the like."
305864,1,Lies from start to finish,"This vile piece of slander is demolished in a publication called 'Manufacturing history: sex, lies and Random House's memoirs of Mao's physician', edited by Q. M. DeBorja and Xu L. Dong, published by the China Study Group.As Lin Ke, one of Mao's secretaries, wrote, ""The entire work is a piece of anticommunist and anti-Mao propaganda. Any research work done on Mao Zedong or the history of the People's Republic of China, if based on the fabricated accounts and wild allegations of Dr. Li, is bound to be biased and unscientific, embarking on a path that moves away from historical facts. Moreover, it may lead to errors of great historical import.""If you want a truthful account, try Quan Yanchi's book, Life at Mao's side."

305972,1,Not great.,The rules were poorly written and the game play seems random and poorly thought out. These guys had a good idea and wasted it on a bad game design. It coudl have been silly and I would have been happy - this is just a BAD GAME DESIGN.
305993,1,Forget this game if you want to solo,"First get used to waiting an hour or longer before being forced to group with a couple of eleven year-old kids and a foul-mouthed sixty year-old, because if you like soloing even a little bit you can forget about this game. In addition the tech specs are way high-end and you will need to splurge out on a graphics card of at least around the $300 range or the game gets as choppy as a chinook in a crosswind. {EDIT}. Strictly for diehard Everquest 1 players with more money than sense."
306013,1,VIbration problem! Avoid this product!,"Good in theory and did make my woodstove fire up in a hurry, but this this blower has problems. It worked for a while but often vibrated and was hard to crank. A growling sound happened at the same time. Curious about this, I took it apart and found out al the gears are plastic and rather loose on their shafts. Some C clips were missing which may cause the gears to wander. The handle is very wimpy and bent easily under normal cranking. I was not impressed! I tried to correct some of these problems by securing the gears and applying some lube which helped for a while, but now it's worse than ever.Others have had the same problem, so this is not an isolated issue."
306050,1,"Comfortable to hold, but breaks quickly","I bought a total of four of these - on two of them, the R1 button broke in less than an hour of their first use. Another one has something broken inside, which rattles when it is in use - it hasn't stopped working yet, but is annoying.On the plus side, it is much more comfortable for me, since it is sized more for an adult than the standard Sony controller, and has a softer gamepad control for the d-pad. Sony's controller has four separate buttons for the d-pad, which makes it harder on the thumbs over time.All in all, they aren't worth the money."
306060,1,Disjoint Rambling,"This seemed to have the potential to be an interesting performance piece, but it just didn't come together. It was a disjoint and rambling hour with no overarching point or theme to pull it together."
306147,1,Just awful.,"We bought this for the diaper bag when my first was ready to potty train. My second is using the potty now, and I pulled it out to give it one more shot. It doesn't fit well on any toilet seat, public or residential, it slides around horribly, and it bows under my kids' weight causing the joints to catch skin. Both of my kids ended up sideways and screaming on the toilet with pinched thighs, and I had to support their weight to keep them from falling in. I wanted so badly for this to work, but it doesn't. :("
306154,1,"The trilogy starts bravely, but the last book craters ...","For 1972 it isn't bad, but the downsided ending offerring only the hope of commercial conquest and a rather trite ""I shall have no son"" (because I am a twit) for the conclusion, brings it to a sorry close.The series either needs a fourth book or a rewrite of the ending with a better editor."
306191,1,Great idea but does not work,"I bought this sprinkler because it had some nice features. However, it does not work. Instead of oscillating, it goes in a complete circle (into the ground) and then just stops. It will not stop where you set it. I even returned it thinking I just got a bad one the first time, but the first time I set it up, it did exactly the same thing!!! Not worth your money or time."

306370,1,not satisfied,battery that I received did not work. Was not able to take pictures of a very important event because of it. I bought a universal charger at Best Buy for less. Felt it was wrong to make me pay postage since you sent me someting defective.

306391,1,Extremely Short Duty Cycle,"Extremely Short Duty Cycle: Just received, charged the batteries overnight and less than pleased that each battery lasted no more than 15 minutes of use on the leaf blower. Will try another cycle but if this is normal - they will go back. Nice to not have to lug around the corded model but 15 minutes is inadequate."
306411,1,This album is not up to par with his past albums,"I have to say, as a huge Rod Stewart fan, that I was really disappointed in this album. After hearing Rod's version of Oh La La, I ran out and bought the album. None of the other tracks sounded very good. Also, I didn't find the lyrics very catchy."
306435,1,Same information,I didn't gain any new information or tips on dealing with the lap band. This same information I have received from my doctor and off the internet. I think it would be good for someone who didn't know anything about the procedure.
306437,1,Non-Stick Surface Peeled. Calphalon refused to honor warranty.,"I've been very happy with Calphalon products in the past. This one has been a disappointment. After about a year, the non-stick surface started to show signs of wearing off and peeling. At about the 2 year mark, it became so bad, that there was bare metal showing (no nonstick surface) on about 25% of the pan. I decided to return the pan for an exchange, as covered by the Calaphalon warranty. The robust warranty is one of the reasons I have always justified spending so much money on the Calaphalon pans. Well, they sent the pan back to me, claiming that it is not covered under the warranty, because if the non-stick surface was peeling off, it was my fault for putting the pan on too high of heat. I'm sure others have had better responses. This one has turned me from a Calaphalon gung-ho fan, to a very skeptical user. I would not recommend Calphalon non-stick due to this experience."

306688,1,Forgot something?,Meyers wrote this book in 1998 but apparently decided to ignore the tax liability of flipping houses. The 1997 Tax Act will have a serious impact on anyone who follows Meyers method of getting in and getting out as quickly as possible. Ignoring the possible 39% taxes a short term flipper has to fork over makes Myers examples too rosey. The book does give great ideas as to where to look for bargins and how to obtain financing. This book is not meant for anyone who buys and holds but only for those who buy and sell. Flippers beware...pay attention to your tax situation. Read Irwin's guide to the 1997 Tax Act.
306725,1,Poor heat due to broken element ... lasted 1 week,"Worked fine for about 1 week ... saw a burst of light (fire?) one evening, after which heat was significantly reduce. Wattage testing showed that 1500 watt setting no longer works. Would not recommend you buy this product."
306777,1,Not what I expected,"This product was not what I expected it to be. My 9 year old son is very much into the Civil War, this would have been a great present for him if it had been easier to work with. The project was very hard and time consuming. It did not look as represented. Not happy at all."
306781,1,DO NOT BUY THIS,You have to pay a monthly fee and the graphics are pathetic.There is no decent help screens. There are lags in the time to perform actions. I played Ultima IV years ago on a apple IIc and it was better then this version.
306840,1,"The story is OK, the message is terrible","This could've been done a lot better without the anti-religion bias. I agree with another reviewer that it was just over-the-top. It could've been done once and I might let it slide, but it felt like it was the whole second half of the movie (after his mother dies) and just kept going downhill. Seriously, bad taste."
306859,1,Crappy sustain pedal,"Worked ok for a couple of months, then intermittently and finally it broke after a year or so,it's cheaply made, and as mentioned in other posts, has a thin wire acting as a switch inside,(mine broke, so I can't really fix it)."
306870,1,"All Hype, little substance","This book is more about theo-political axe-grinding than doing careful biblical scholarship. Spong takes the conclusions of some liberal scholars and runs like mad, trying to undo anything that he thinks smacks of fundamentalism. Really, it is a sad attempt to promote radical theology. To get a good overview of the New Testament from a moderate, scholarly approach, see Luke Timothy Johnson's ""The Writings of the New Testament."" Also, use the Anchor Bible Dictionary and the Anchor Bible Commentaries and then sit down and do careful exegesis of the texts. For the Old Testament, see Lawrence Boadt's ""Reading the Old Testament."""
306923,1,Not Worth The $$,"There has yet to be something profound that comes out of the reality show bonanza that's infecting everyone. Alex Parks, the winner of Fame Academy, releases this rushed album titled Introduction and massacres pop's greatest songs along the way. Introduction is mainly a number of cover versions from the tomboy. Parks does Christina Aguilera's ""Beautiful"" and absolutely butchers it, much like what she did on John Lennon's ""Imagine."" Parks goes on to kill the Eurhythmics ""Here Comes The Rain,"" Coldplay's ""Yellow"" and even REM's ballad ""Everybody Hurts."" It's amazing how Parks can suck the magic out of such monumental songs.Her original tracks also bore. ""Maybe That's What It Takes"" is a redundant juggernaut, while ""Cry"" is pure sap.Introduction proves that it takes more than a good voice to carry an album. What these reality shows miss out on is charisma.Alex Parks' attempt at a career takes a cold turn with Introduction."
306965,1,"Great concept, Just not good enough","I bought this for my daughter's room because she didnt' have a phone jack and I thought it clevor to have a wireless one since kids change their rooms around all the time. We were pretty excited about the concept, however, it doesn't work well at all. It's a bunch of static. Can hear the other person, but definitely something wrong with the Jack. I wouldn't recommend it nor spend that much on it. We didn't return it because what a hassle to return and pay for shipping again and my daughter was just excited to have the phone working."
307021,1,Terrible,These might have worked better if I had bought different screws. I just couldn't get these to work at all.
307043,1,"Cute, but not sturdy or safe","A cute, fun toy. But the wood is so flimsy! It just peels apart. My son has brought me pieces of wood which he has easily broken off and chewed. Any curious toddler could tear it apart or snap the lid in half. We've had this toy for about two months, and there are several pieces of wood missing. They're sharp, too. Buy a better shape sorter. Plastic would probably be best. I'm wishing I'd bought the tupperware one. Oh well."
307065,1,not as advertised,"Delivery was timely. Camera works and software is adequate. Price is right. But the LEDs surrounding the lens are white-light like the LED flashlights available. Low light conditions are overcome by a good stong visible light, not infra-red light. So one star for false advertising and four for the item itself. I hate false advertising!"
307096,1,it doesn't work at all,i've been testing it for 1 week and this product is not bringing good results. it just doesn't work. it doesn't recharge anything. i think i'll return it if it keep not working!is very big!

307167,1,WORST ALBUM OF THE YEAR! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!,ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS THAT I AM DEEPLY DISAPPOINTED. I WAS SO HYPE TO BUY HER ALBUM AFTER I HEARD HER HIT SINGLE GIRLFIGHT WITH BIG BOI AND LIL JON. I WOULD THINK HER ALBUM WOULD BE FULL OF FIGHT MUSIC AND HYPE BEATS. BUT THIS IS A BUMMER. TERRIBLE. THE BEST SONG ON HERE IS GIRLFIGHT. THE REST IS PURE GARBAGE. BROOKE VALENTINE SHOULD HAVE CAME BETTER THAN THIS. DO NOT BELIEVE THE REVIEWS. THIS IS ONLY WORTH BUYING BOOTLEG. BLAH BLAH BLAH SOUNDS TERRIBLE AND I WANT YOU DEAD MAKES ME WANT TO PUKE! DON'T SAY I DIDN'T WARN YOU! GO BUY CIARA'S ALBUM INSTEAD.
307202,1,"Don't ""trust"" the pharcyde","The Pharcyde without Fatlip is like ATCQ without Phife, it just cant work. The cd was alright though, not terrible. Trust is definetely the best song on the cd. Network is good too, and frontline is ok. The rest just uhh, sucked. Imani is a good MC and all, but I would recomend saving your $ and getting something else unless you are a hardcore pharcyde fan."
307251,1,Horrible!,"I ordered this product, and the product key for Windows XP did not work. Amazon.com proceeded to tell me that they needed to ship me an entirely new shipment, rather than send me a valid product key. I recieved the new package, send the defective one back, and tried to install XP Professional. Upon installing the second time, the product hung at the license agreement. Do not buy this book. The only reson I bought the book was for the trial XP software, but I would like to have been sent a working copy!"

307423,1,"No patterns, Limited sizes, Frumpy clothes","At I review this, the book is 10 years old, and fashion has moved along, this is no fault of the author. And if you were looking to sew a dress with a chunky cowl neckline, or slim pull on pants, or a raglan-sleeved dress you have your book. Sadly, the clothes as photographed scream HOMEMADE rather than fitted and well-tailored. I give her credit for showing different sized gals as models but the clothes are not flattering on them all, they often look like the clothes are wearing them. As mentioned, there are no patterns with the book, and the size range is limited to S - M - L, with no intent to cover bust > 43""; waist > 36"", or hips > 46"". Her sewing tips are good, but are available in her other books."
307455,1,A Pathetically Shallow Study,"The author fails to penetrate the depth of Watchman Nee's thought, esperience, and ministry and thus has written a pathetically shallow study of Watchman Nee. Also, the book has a religious flavor that is quite sickening."
307496,1,"95% imagination, 5% cheddar cheese flavor",Yup you might taste cheddar if you do not mind dumping 1/2 bottle in your popcorn. You would be better off purchasing a good brand of cheddar cheese and grating it on top of your popcorn.
307538,1,Where is Sinatra?,"Why use Frank Sinatra's ""I Thought About You"" in the movie and then not release it on the soundtrack??"
307592,1,Another generic video,"This video is a good video, except it is bland and generic. I was expecting more along the lines of something original, but I have to say it is everything but. I recently picked up the new Alan Kropf bass technique video, and it blew me away. I expected another hit from Victor Wooten, considering his status, and I was let down. If you never have seen a Victor Wooten video it is ok. I recommend Alan's new video more though."
307654,1,Low Quality,I purchased this 2 years ago for $ 50 which is a ripoff. This radio gets a terrible connection and has static like crazy. Plus it's so small you might lose it and also lose the money you paid for it. Don't buy this am/fm radio go out and get a better and more reliable one.
307684,1,Not the best...,"This powder leaves tastes terrible and leaves an obvious metallic aftertaste and does not mix in to liquid very well, a lot of it settles on the bottom of the glass. I've used other/better brands of vitamin C powder, and just thought I'd try something new, but I obviously won't be buying this product again. That being said, we used it to get through a couple of colds and it seemed to be at least as effective as the other powders I've tried."

307893,1,another tired ass record shack collection,"i don't know if all this rubbish comes from record shack or not but each of these songs has been released on at least twelve cheapo compilation cds that i have seen on amazon pages....they seem to think that if they change the cover and the title of the album, enough innocents will buy this [...] they are probably right.don't buy this one..... [...]tribute to heaven ? don't make me laugh [...] another shameless attempt to rip off and do to death already tired tracks is more accurate."
307959,1,Good,I liked this movie so much when I was way younger but watching it now is not the same.The graphics are lame and the story is too.A good movie to remember the old days but that's about it.
307966,1,Rolling Kitchen Storage,"Again, you get what you pay for. The doors don't line up properly. When I pulled on one of the doors the handle snapped off. The drawer doesn't line up as well. The drawer won't pull out (what good is it). Luckily I have a handy husband who can fix things."
308005,1,this product sucks,"it gets lost all the time, takes forever to load the maps and doesn't tell you when the battery is dying."
308068,1,With Murderous Intent,"As true crime stories go, this was not one of my favorites. The author spends alot of time detailing background on every new detective, wife, bailiff etc. that enters the picture. I prefer when they stick to the subject story and I found myself skipping over alot of detail that really did not affect the main story at all."
308201,1,Small information-value added,"The book is most useful as a source of references. A wide range of planning tools and techniques are mentioned, but treated in very small depth, and the text denotes little practical experience of the author in the management of true corporations, as when he states that ''The planning of strategy to identify a firm's mission, goals and objectives, ..., represents the difference between success and failure in today's environment'' (sic). There's certainly much more to success and failure in real world corporations than that. The reprint of the Telecommunications Acts of 1996 and 1934 occupies almost half of the book."
308280,1,blah,"Did a side-by-side comparison at home with my old Yamaha DSP-A1 (which is Dolby Pro-Logic only) and I honestly didn't hear any improvement over the Yamaha after about a week of watching THX certified DVDs on a Sony Elite player with very good Paradigm speakers (7 speaker configuration for Onkyo, 5 for Yamaha). Actually I preferred the Yamaha which had a warmer and richer sound. The Onkyo is going back to Circuit City this week."
308284,1,Don't buy with the Skylink 18 remote opener,"I was looking at the Skylink 18 remote opener. I decided that it was the unit I wanted. Down below, the Amazon ""Frequently Purchased Together"" showed the 18 remote opener with the 318TR transmitters. I clicked ""Add Both To Cart"" because NO WHERE did it say that the two were NOT compatible. Well, the 18 remote opener DOES work well, however, I have returned the 318 transmitters as they can NOT be made to work with the 18 remote opener. If you are purchasing the 318 opener, these are what you want. Do NOT buy them with the 18 opener. I will give the 18 opener high marks, but can not rate the 318 transmitter as it would not work with the 18 opener."
308297,1,Out of stock for weeks,"I keep getting new updates with ""still out of stock"" notices. You can get them from Home Depot, same price, also free shipping, they have them in stock. A lot of other suppliers also seem to have them drop-shipped from the manufacturer, so took a while to find a place that actually kept them in inventory."
308303,1,He sees only what his worldview allows him to see,"The evidence that his arguments are littered with fallacious arguments is overwhelming, just in the first few pages - which is admittedly all I read. If you are an atheist, Darwinian, naturalist, guess what!? We don't have any souls! Imagine that! The only thing astonishing is that this was published, but I forget, he won a Nobel prize, so he could write ""poop"" on a piece of toilet paper and get it published. At least that would be less harmful to the public's opinion of the interaction of science and God."
308322,1,Loaded with old stereotypes,"The author elected to fill the first few pages with hatred towards the Russian soldier who fought and defeated the Nazis for us. They are loaded with the worst Cold War era stereotypes that border with racism, as well as the myths about Russian behavior in occupied Germany.I believe these ridiculous and pathetic stereotypes are not worthy of a serious modern novelist, so I will never buy another book by Kerr again."
308396,1,vornado heater,I own 4 Vornado heaters. One is the VH2 and the others are EH models. When they work they are great but I have not been able to use any of them for more than 2 winters without something going wrong with them. 2 of them were recalled and one of them is broken again! Since I want somethig that will last more than 2 winters I will not be buying Vornado again!
308409,1,"Beautiful colors, until it dies in less than 2 years","Bought this about 2 years ago at Best Buy because it was on sale for under $400 and it was brighter and more vivid than the other 24"" monitors on display. Never had any problems with it and loved it while it worked. About a week ago it started hissing (like LCDs do right before they die) and now it will not turn on. Had I known my $400 investment would have not even lasted me two years, no way would I have bought it. $400 is certainly not an amount of money I can throw away every two years for a disposable monitor. This is unacceptable.I also have a Samsung 22"" monitor that is on the same computer and it is 4 or 5 years with no problems."
308428,1,Product is misrepresented,"I was very unhappy with this misrepresented toy. The baby's family this gift was supposed to be given to is trying to avoid purchasing "" made in China"" toys.I searched Amazon.com for toys made in the USA. This was one of the first entries. However, it is made in China.One very unhappy customer!"
308448,1,Don't Be Fooled!,"Listeners:Don't get taken away by all the hype surrounding this album. ""All The Fools Sailed Away"" is an OK ballad. The pop sound of this album is nowhere near Dio's best. For new listeners, I'd recommend Holy Diver, Last In Line, and Lock Up the Wolves, which are all hard-core Dio albums."
308476,1,Big disappointment,In spite of the bunch of big name humorist authors this book isa total flop. The humor is almost exclusively at the level of anearly adolescent boy and the continuous use of sexual insults and filthy language makes for very tiresome reading What little plot there was couldn't save the project. I am sorry I wasted my time and money on this book.
308478,1,OK - but that's it,"We use these in a very busy restaurant. For us these typically last about 2 years before the button stops working on them. There is a new type that I like better that doesn't go all the way around your ear. The new ones feel better as they hook just from the top of the ear. Had 2 of another type also, the one with the bud in the ear and the buttons also pooped out on those - one after 4 years, the other after 2 years.All in all they're OK but consider them ""disposable."" The multi-charger I rated as a one star but the walkies themselves are AWESOME. We have some that are 5 years old and still have the same batteries and work fine."
308487,1,bad Phillips tips,"the Phillips tips are very bad, the picture has no resolution to zoom in and see how the Phillips tips are, not good at all when i'm using them.the flat tips are good."
308497,1,The worst book I've read in two months,"Jeffery Deaver fascinates me. He has great ideas for novels, and sometimes even turns out a great book. But whether it's the book itself or just the ending, Deaver always finds a way to ruin everything he's written. Whether it's suddenly swerving things with a ridiculous ending that negates the first 95 percent of the novel or by throwing ridiculous situations and characters into the mix, Deaver always finds a way to ruin his books and tick off the readers. This is a perfect example.Don't bother reading this. Spend your money on sleeping pills...they'll have the same effect. Bad characters, a STUPID ending, a choppy plot, and I could go on and on about what's wrong with this book.Another strikeout for Deaver."
308680,1,PFE releases a poor DVD,I actually upset to learn neither MGM/UA or Warner Bros released this movie to DVD. They give distribution licencing rights to two companies and don't even give/produce the FULL version of 106 Min. I would'nt mind any company releasing Convoy to DVD but at least show all 106 min and include the trailer. Everyone that has begged (including me) for this movie to be released on DVD got completely ripped off. It was not digitally enhanced and this has to be the first DVD literally in history to not hagve a movie's full version.We should have just purchased DVD recorders and dubbed it from the Thorn EMI VHS release. Hell even television shows the entire movie excluding language.
308720,1,The Case of Missing Information,"The way this is supposed to work: Hook up the cable to your zune and then to the TV, corresponding the colours.They way thay say you need to do it: Do the same thing but with the zune dock.I am deffinately not happy about this. I just spent about $10 on something that is worthless to me, because I can only get the sound, and not the picture. Waste of money."
308723,1,Even a casual fan will be disappointed,"If all you want is a collection of Fleetwood Mac's hits this one's fine. All the hits are here (from 1975-1988) and if that's all you expect from a greatest hits collection, you won't be disappointed. But even a casual fan of the band (like me) found this to be a little less than I expected. The liner notes are the pits; a behind the scenes look at a 1988 concert (w/o Buckingham) with no insight into the songs in the collection. There aren't even songwriter credits (although there are production credits)! I'm not reviewing the songs here, but the packaging. I feel a band that is this talented and popular deserves a better package for their best material."
308762,1,Worst DVD ever made,"The other reviewer says it all. There is literally nothing on this DVD. How to hold the cue and how to make the cue ball go forward, stop, or reverse upon making your shot. Again, nothing about angles, that is where to hit the ball in order to send it on an angle to the pocket. After watching the first drill and the second drill performed on all 15 balls, I fast forwarded thru drill 3 and 4. Then he goes into some trick shots. How about real game situations, even an overview of rules/how to play a couple of variations. You can all laugh when I tell you I paid $25 at the local store for this. Going right into the trash."
308802,1,Chuck Does Not Fit Bits,"This must have been designed for ""foreign"" bits. It does not fit my spade bits. It is also ""flimsy"" - in trying to use it, the chuck broke. Spend more - get a good one."
308819,1,MIS-Represented- BEWARE- Read closely,"AMAZON is doing a poor service to their loyal computer parts buyers on this item. One is by showing a SINGLE ram stick Pictured, when it is actually 2, and the other is by NOT putting anywhere in the item description that this is NOT a Single 2gb stick of ram(1 stick shown as item picture), but actually 2 pcs of 1gb each in package. The only tiny clue in the item description that most average buyers would not catch is the word ""KIT"" in part number description, which commonly refers to DUAL CHANNEL KIT, but nowhere is this stated. I bought this item expecting a single 2gb stick, and would not recommend or buy again."
308919,1,"Boring with a capital ""B""","zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!!! Watching these ""actors"" (i do mean actors) trying to talk/do fashion. They know NOTHING about fashion. Well, maybe boring fashion."
308935,1,DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT...THE ORIGINAL MUSIC IS MISSING!,"Like many others who have reviewed this DVD boxed set, I was eager to buy it. I grew up watching WKRP In Cincinnati and have told my wife about it many times. I marked my calendar and showed up at a local store to buy it today.As soon as I read the back of the box, I put it back on the shelf in disgust.I refuse to buy a product so poorly handled. I would gladly have paid $10 more per set to have the original music intact. If Miami Vice could do it, the studio that owns the rights to WRKP in Cincinnati could have done it.This is sloppy, short-sighted, and inexcusable.KRP was a classic show that captured the spirit of the '70s -- music and all. There's no excuse for it to be butchered this way.When this boxed set is restored to its original state, I'll buy it. Until then, I'll be content to remember it for the classic that it was."
308959,1,Not a new book!!,"I was so very disappointed to receive this, only to find that it is only a collection of the first 3 books in the series!I love this series, and I was so happy to see a new title that I ordered this as soon as it came out. I should have waited for a review to see what was really happening. I'll do that with the Brightwell books from now on.Other authors publish collections, but you always know from the titles that they are collections. I was tricked into thinking this was a new story because of the title.Don't order this book unless you really want the collection of her first 3 books! I'd give 0 stars if I could - because of the misleading title."
309020,1,Did Mary and Joseph spank baby Jesus,Did Mary and Joseph spank Jesus as a baby or as a child? NO they did not. They loved him and treated him with respect they were his protectors and that is the reason why GOD put his only son in their hands because he knew that Jesus was going to be loved and admired by these parents.
309035,1,MisleadingTitle,"I bought this book as a refresher. The author goes through the material very quickly. His writing isn't very clear and I'm frustrated by the format of the book -- too much text, not enough examples or summaries. I'm sticking to my old college textbook."
309044,1,Haynes diesel engine repair manual,"This manual only covers very basic, simple repair, mostly common sense stuff. Seems like every time I get to a section where I really need a manual, I run into the phrase ""this service is best left to a professional diesel mechanic"", instead of any constructive information."
309092,1,Good case - Bad Belt Clip,"Like several other reviewers here, I think this is a very nice case, but after 2 weeks the belt clip tore loose. The clip is very poorly made and attached in a very flimsy manner. Therefore, I recommend that you do not buy this item."
309110,1,Lame-o-rama,"This movie was pretty horrible. When I rented it, I thought it'd be a true documentary (especially with Morgan Suprlock's name on it). In fact, it was a mostly un-funny scripted ""mocumentary"". Don't waste your time or money on this one."
309120,1,Mix body piercing jewelry,This item was so cheep I will never buy this agin the belly button ring was miss the jewel as well
309164,1,A long-winded list of unrealistic and bizzarre platitudes,"Sure, ""War is bad"" (platitude #1). However this message delivered repeatedly is a waste of paper and ink.This sermon focuses on the nature of ""the little man"". This character is so-named because the Author is highly attuned to the nature of this character and blames him for all the ills of mankind. Thus, the little man is selfish, warlike, likes war movies, boxing-matches etc.The didactic nature of this character can be completely contrasted by the natures of real people. The little man doesn't really exist outside of this book. Even the author's experience as a witness to the third reich doesn't justify most of the natures attributed to the little man.Overall, the book is just unreadable. It is simply blase' to read a book which repremands an imaginary character for 125 pages."
309226,1,Not impressed,not really impressed with this cane. I actually hurt myself using it. Makes a nice hanger ornament in my closet
309279,1,"Pretty, but little substance","It makes me angry that ""Pony"" has so slickly marketed his Native American heritage *and* jumped on the marketing bandwagon that Monty Roberts has engineered. To be sure, the photographs are quite nice ('though I'd prefer fewer of ""Pony"" and more of the horses), and while I'm all for the popularization of ""kinder and gentler,"" methods of horse training/relating to horses, I hate the unabashed and tacky slickness of ""Pony Boy's"" whole self-promotion industry.If you want *real* information and insight on horse-human interaction and true relationship training, do yourself (and your equines) a favor and pick up one (or better yet, all three!) of Mark Rashid's books."
309282,1,OC product un complete!,"Well, I was skeptical of the price! The box was nice! Only one problem, Crucial season 3 disc 22 was not in the set, but disc 21 was in there twice! Great! Totally disappointed!"
309333,1,"Good for beginners, but winners look elsewhere","This book should be titled Beginning Holdem. It is very basic, and if you already know the rules but want to win the most you can, go for Ed Miller and David Sklansky's book: Small Stakes Holdem, from 2+2 publishing. While you might win at low limit holdem from Jones's book, you won't win so much, but if you don't win, you won't lose so much. This book goes over preflop play, and also goes over post flop play, but not enough. The miller book touches on preflop play, but most mistakes in low limit games are made after the flop, and that is where Jones's book doesn't excell and Miller's does. You will have bigger swings in winnings either positive or negative with Miller's book, but it is the only way to go."
309345,1,Discouraging Read,"I thought the book was very discouraging to the readers. I think you can be realistic without saying - basically unless you are extremely lucky, you don't have a chance to be a columnist.I felt the book was always on the cusp of giving useful information. Then just before it was getting good, the author would stop short and start a new topic. I think the author could have gone into topics in a more detailed manner, instead of paragraph long diatribes on why this is really never going to happen for you."
309348,1,GREAT TOOL,"AS A WOODWORKER AND FULL TIME CARPENTER WITH MY OWN BUSINESS,I HAVE HAD MANY CORDLESS DRILLS FROM MANY MANUFACTURERS. THIS IS THE THIRD MODEL 9876 PORTER-CABLE I HAVE PURCHASED. I THINK FOR THE SIZE IT HAS EXCELLENT POWER AND TORQUE. I'VE TRIED OTHERS 18 AND FIND THAT THIS DRILL WILL DO AS GOOD A JOB AND IS MORE ECONOMICAL. IT IS LITTLE WEIGHT WITH GOOD BALANCE AND THE CHARGER KEEPS THE BATTERIES CHARGED WHEN I'VE BEEN USING THE DRILL AS A SCREWGUN ALL DAY. I HAVE MANY PORTER-CABLE TOOLS AND WILL CONTINUE TO USE THIS BRAND AS MY PRIMARY POTABLE POWER TOOL MANUFACTUER."
309362,1,"not notified, out of stock",I placed my order and had to contact the company to see why it had not arrived after a couple weeks of waiting. They emailed me back that it was currently not available but I had recieved no notice prior to my making contact with them. It was frustrating. I cancelled the order & re-ordered from someone else.
309364,1,"A beautiful, empty glass","I agree with all those who said that it took at least 100 pages to become engaged with this novel. And that may not, ultimately, been worth the effort. Many, many of Harrison's sentences and descriptions are breathtaking. Those sentences, those descriptions, are so beautiful. Beyond those glittering things there is, sadly, not much else."
309393,1,"Maybe just my bad luck, but ...","I bought one of these, thinking that it should be good enough that I could pass it on to my kids. Paid extra for it because it was supposed to be a deluxe model. I didn't use it much at all, but had it for over three years. During that time I probably made less than 25 cuts with it--not even enough to scratch the paint on the bottom of the guide deck. I took the thing out to use it the other day and it shot sparks out of the housing and died. Now I have a brand new looking saw that's worthless. I'm not at all impressed with Skil / Bosch at the moment. It's sounding like it's going to cost more to get it repaired than to go out and get a GOOD saw."
309427,1,Misleading Title of DVD,"I was very disappointed in this DVD. I expected it to be an in-depth examination of the origins of the Protocols of Zion and how this bogus document has influenced world events. Although the DVD does discuss the Protocols to some extent, it really focuses much more on the existence and extent of anti-Semitic and anti-Zionist feelings in the U.S. and elsewhere. It was interesting and well done, but it wasn't what I was expecting or what I wanted."
309441,1,Still Lousy After All These Years,"The issue isn't whether this or that transfer is better or worse: this is a bad film that no amount of after-the-fact tinkering can save. Not even the great Ustinov can rescue this sprawling, miserable mess. The acting is cloyingly annoying, the story telling lurches like a carriage missing a wheel, the title role is filled by an actress who could put hummingbirds to sleep, and the music is like having a cream pie pounded into your ear. The crowds and critics were right the first time when they declared this film a flop upon its initial release. It's still a flop."
309478,1,A bit too slow paced for me.,I like it but i feel it's too slow for my taste. Good for beginners and those currently with low back or hip injuries/ pain.
309503,1,No better than the User's Guide,"There are a few tips and shortcuts in the book that are handy but don't look to it to help you figure out how to use Quickbooks to customize your business. There are few examples of how the various features can actually be used and, most dismaying of all, no analysis of how the things you're instructed to do actually affect your accounts."
309542,1,Have you got the online docs ? (err.. yes),"I don't like slating books so I am not about to start.PostgreSQL Essential Reference is not bad. If it actually contained more details, fuller explanations, more or better examples than the docs that come free with postgres then it would be well worth having. As such, IMHO it actually offers less for the most part.I am really trying to find a place for this on someone's book shelf. If you are a beginner and don't have access to the online docs then you might find something here. If not I would heartily recommend Bruce Momjian's online (or printed) work as a companion to the original potgreSQL manual"
309548,1,Not Very Accurate,"I was a bit deceived when I saw this. It says ""Laser Target Range Finder"" and would have you beleive it actually uses a laser to measure. It doesn't. It uses ultrasound with a laser sight. Ultrasound is very imprecise. It expands like a cone so at 60 feet your target is several feet across.Read the accuracy on this, 99.5% +/- 1/4"" What that means is at 60 ft. you could get an error of almost 4"". Instead, get a true laser measure, that are now available for under $100. They are accurate to +/- 1/4"" at 100 ft. Do the math. That's almost 16 times as accurate."
309574,1,"No wit, no humor, plagued book 5 and 6","The 6th book made me sad. The 5th book did too. I longed for The fun of books 1-3 -- especially the Prisoner of Azkaban. That is to say, Ron, Harry and Hermione used to have fun and say witty things. Remember when Ron made fun of Hermione's dentist parents? Now, I can no longer find any of the fun stuff that made earlier books so enjoyable. Where is the euphoria of a broom ride? Where is the happiness of freeing your uncle from prison? Now it is all trauma-drama sad. Perhaps the author is trying to reflect our current world-war infected times. Worse yet, she has lost her sense of wit."
309604,1,Major double bogie!,"What a stinker-roo! This book is such an insult to those of us who play the game. It doesn't work- period. The author can write as many good reviews for himself as he wants, but its not going to help this misfit."
309629,1,Poor Packaging Repeat problem,"I had two separate orders. One box came packaged properly, the nails were intact and they worked as designed - hooray. I needed a second box and this time they were not packaged properly so they flopped around in the shipping box and they were all broken and not usable. Amazon I love you but please fix this problem as there are other incidents of this problem."
309663,1,Craftsman Robogrips are much better than these,These are supposed to be like the Craftsman Robogrips thatSears introduced several years ago. The Craftsman product is holdingup much better than this brand.
309702,1,Not so great at all!,"People, the cable merely worked. It is well made and it did transmit the sound signal but the input signal was very low using a Shure SM-58 with a MacBook Pro 17"" mid 2010. If you need to record with a microphone, you'll need an external audio interface with a good mic preamp in order to plug the microphone to it. The preamp will increase the mic signal, and you'll be able to get a good sound signal in your recording application."
309780,1,multi-purpose saw,This saw description makes you think you can do things that it is not up to doing. We returned ours. Only good for balsa wood or any very light weight material. I cannot rate it because I was disappointed in its performance.
309876,1,frustrated w/ Wagner,"12 years ago, a neighbor purchased a Wagner Power Paint Sprayer - and returned it in the same day, as it just did not work for more then one or two passes. We recently purchased one, figuring with the passing of time that the company would have made improvements to their product - they have not. At first we were excited by the speed and ease in which we were able to get things painted... that lasted about five minutes. The unit repeatedly seizes up - and no amount of thinning the paint helps. We've cleaned it, oiled it, done everything anyone has suggested for trouble shooting. This is more frustration then it is worth. Very disappointing, because if the company would care to improve the product so that it actually worked - this would be a very handy tool to have and SHOULD make life much easier. But, we'll be returning ours today after another failed attempt to get some painting done. Two thumbs down, Wagner!!!!"
309885,1,Kindle ed. was messy,"Lady Knight: Book 4 of the Protector of the Small QuartetI purchased the kindle edition of this book and was dissapointed by the formatting. There were numerous punctuation and spelling errors ( particularly any word with a double f in it) and a whole section where dialogue was supposed to be in italics to differentiate between characters was hopelessly jumbled. I hope that this author's others works faired better in the kindle format, because I love this series and this book."
309889,1,Worked great less than a dozen times.,"After jamming a scrap of wood between the blade and the table of my arbor saw and radial arm saw for years I ordered the Bench Dog to get to the free shipping cutoff. Using this to take off the radial arm saw blade for cleaning was EASY. I put it under the blade, lowered the radial arm saw blade into it without exerting much pressure, and took the arbor nut right off. This tool probably saved me 5 minutes. Considering I've installed and reinstalled blades after sharpening (the days when this was normal), and installed new blades to replace old ones (today's normal) perhaps 100 times (not counting Dado blades) this tool could have saved me perhaps 8 or 9 hours of time over 30 years taking off blades and another 8 or 9 hours putting them back on. It's worth the cost.UPDATE - It works great until the inside of the tool shreds off and the it's throw away time. I would not buy another."
309899,1,Kill to Love Review,I often got lost with this movie. It had some good moments and the music was good but there was alot of scenes that could have been edited out. What took eight disc could have been done in four. I liked the stars but even their work could not really save it. I am giving the movie a two mainly for the music
309912,1,A plea for restoration.,"This comment is primarily for the benefit of those who came of age after the era of black-and-white television. In my opinion, the picture quality in this set ranges from fair to horrible (black tones totally gone). Even in those portions I rate as ""fair,"" much of the background detail is indistinct or muddy. The sound quality generally is decent, however. Despite these deficiencies, this 100 episode set is worth $11.49, the steeply discounted price. As others have noted, the original commercials are a nice bonus.It is a shame that so much of our television heritage has been allowed to degrade to this state. If you would like to see what a black-and-white television program of the same era looks like when properly restored, watch ""I Love Lucy"" on DVD. Almost as good is ""Perry Mason."" Given that ""The Adventures of Ozzie & Harriet"" ran almost three times longer than ""I Love Lucy,"" let's hope that this series will be properly restored and offered in season sets."
309924,1,Superfluous,"After Sting has published his own autobiography Broken Music this month, this so-called ""complete biography"" on Sting has made itself superfluous....Sting beats Wensley Clarkson in style, authenticity and truthfulness. Readers may look at it as a kind of reference to Broken Music, but they'll discover quite quickly that Wensley Clarkson nearly got everything wrong which, of course is to blame partly on questionable sources - British tabloid papers."
309948,1,Disappointed,"I was very disappointed in this book. I have read books about the Kennedy family since I was a child, and I am familiar with a lot of the historical incidents. Some of the book was not historically accurate - I don't believe Jackie was at the funeral of Patrick, and the author skipped her job at Viking Press. Also, the writing was choppy, and the chapters seemed to end abruptly. In fact, the book ended with her death, and it seems as if he forgot to finish it. The book appeared to be written in a hurry, with very little continuity or accuracy. I was very disappointed that I wasted my time reading this book."
310054,1,Hard to use if you have a large baby,"I liked the idea of using an infant carrier to have my hands free while working around the house. Unfortunately, this just didn't work out for me and my daughter. She was almost twenty inches and nine pounds at birth, so by the time she was a couple of weeks old and I was ready to try out the carrier, it was incredibly awkward getting her into the thing. I'm not particularly tall and with my daughter being a big baby, I had to have my husband help me. By the time we got her in place, she was so irritated by the process, she wanted no part of it.She also didn't like facing in toward me and not being able to see. By the time, she was old enough to face outward, she was too big for me to comfortably use the carrier. This is the only carrier I tried, so I don't know if this is a problem with all carriers, but in this case, I found it to be more trouble than it was worth."
310075,1,Two Bad Wagons,"I've owned two of these wagons over the span of 18 months. In each case, the wagon's wheel and axle proved defective. Despite the legendary name, I would consider a different brand or product."
310122,1,it broke in 2 weeks,"It worked really well for 2 weeks, and then just stopped working. I dont think i treated it unkindly---i kept it in my pocket next to my cellphone.Maybe if i had treated it more gingerly it would have lasted longer. But what's the point of this form factor if you have to baby it?"
310157,1,unable to plug in cords,"I returned this product. We have older wiring in our home, and there are surges all summer long due to the A/C. We try to replace all surge protectors once a year to try to protect our electrial items. This product had excellent reviews, so I purchased it. Did not work! There was only one place where I was able to plug in a 3 prong connection.I don't have a lot of strength in my hands right now, but I was still able to plug in devices in other new surge protectors. Looking at the strip, there is some type of metal running through the 3rd prong area that prevents any cord from going in. Very disappointed!"
310163,1,Save the Warranty Papers,These seem to work pretty well unless the bulb burns out. I don't think it is possible to replace the bulb and not ruin this dimmer. Save your warranty papers. Howsand@aol.com
310173,1,Very unhappy with product performance and durabilty,"Very disapointed one had to be replaced three days after using, now 2nd one is cracking also, in places that wouldnt; be bumbed into, the mateial will not hold up under what it is designed to do. Also it will not take odors out of air, as advertised, it only masks them, as soon as it is unplugged pet ordors, dust, etc, cand still be smelled. Way over priced for what would a can of air fresherner would have exactly the same effect. We purchased two of these because of advestisment, and would not have bought any had we known how poorly constructed and inefective the product is."
310175,1,Too wide and too optimistic?,"I read this book as a first introduction to OO real time computing. I liked the introduction that covers the three topics of OO, RT systems and fault tolerance (though it does not connect the three topics in any sense). I gave up reading the book after the chapter on method, though I skipped through the remaining chapters. The rest of the book was mainly old stuff on waterfall models and OOA/OOD. The whole book was also very commercial and connected to a specific product from the company that the author works for. There was no comparison to other (in my opinion superior) methods and tools.Instead of buying this book I would recommend you to buy an established book on real time systems and an established book on OO. You will end up spending less money and get a better overview of the two fields by reading fewer pages."
310195,1,Broke after 2 months,"I would use it every once in a while and then it stopped working 90% of the time. Now when i try it, it shoots a blank."
310242,1,Pretty Bad Game for a Pretty High Price,"This game is not fun. The music is too boring, the underwater levels are boring, and Crash Bandicoot looks like a toothpick! After you complete all the levels, you have to smash all the boxes in the levels and make good time trials to win. Believe me, this is bad! I don't know why this game can be sold for fifty dollars. The levels on land are pretty lame too. This is the worst game that I have."
310245,1,Bad Story,"I think the game frame is good, but the story and the cinematics were fair. When you have a machine with the power of the ps2 you ca develop better stories. I ended the game quickly not like his counterpart Resident Evil: Code Veronica X."
310259,1,Laibach - Ljubljana Zagreb Beograd,"I like Laibach, I really do, but this CD is abysmal, nearly unlistenable. I was grinding my teeth trying to get through this awful thing! Seriously, I could not stand this release, if I wasn't a completist it would be gone in a heartbeat. It's just noise, and not the good kind. Think Lou Reed's ""Metal Machine Music"", but not at all interesting and very much annoying. I'm getting a headache just thinking about it..."
310418,1,One star because I can't rate it any lower,"Not much I can add to the other negative reveiws, other than to say the reviews are accurate. This is a horrible shredder!Worked fine..for about 2 months..then nothing. Just will not work..period. I did not misuse shredder, no nails, staples or anything of the sort. In fact, I didn't put anything thru it except paper.Now I've got to buy another one. TWO MONTHS..and it failed.We're not talking daily or heavy useage either. I'm talking for home use, nothing heavy...just c-card,bank statements..etc. TWO MONTHS of light use, and it fails.Unless you just like throwing your money away, do not buy this product."
310507,1,No Streets Of Rage but better than that Batman Forever on SNES & Genesis,I'll admit that this game isn't great it ain't as bad as the Batman Forever games on the 16 bit systems at least I can go across the screen & kick peoples a$$es I don't have to enter a weird button combination to use weapons. I mean there are better beat em ups out there this is an ok game it doesn't follow the movie that well the ending was kind of lame. Basically the story is about Riddler & his boxes that read peoples minds & Two Face killing Dick Graysons parents. The game is 2 players you can play as Batman & Robin it's ok but for a better beat em up with Batman play Batman Returns on SNES.
310549,1,WASTE OF MONEY,I heard the song on Area 33 - sat. radio and bought this cd thinking that would be the track on it - you would think the version that everyone hears would also be on the cd - right - well WRONG!. None of the 5 versions are the one that is being played - and this version was the best one. I think the artist has totally cheated his fans ( former fans). DO NOT BUY THIS - IT IS A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY.
310630,1,Died after less than a year,"I loved this vacuum when I first got it. So cute! So light! So red!But I do not recommend purchasing it, because now less than a year later:- The beater brush stopped working a few months ago. I wondered why the vacuum was leaving dust bunnies back on the carpet - then I checked the beater brush and found it does not rotate any more. Using the plain-floor brush on carpets does not work well either.- The WHOLE THING then died and will not turn on.I vacuum a one-bedroom apartment once a week. Not heavy use at all, but I do need it to be able to pick up kitty litter that is on the floor. It will not do it no matter how many times I go back and forth.Spend your money on something else! Because now I have to buy a new one and I will not buy this brand again."
310648,1,Diasppointed,I purchased this product for stock. We put it in service last week and I feel this is used and returned or seconds. This product has unusable sound quality. We have 10 of the same units I purchased from the products website. I tried Amazon and this is going to be my last time. I'm trying to get this unit repaired from Plantronics. Amazon stated this was a new product.
310670,1,disappointed,"The reviewer Maggie says it all for me. I feel the author did not really show that Jack loved Arabella. I felt let down that JF didn't make Jack stand up more for Arabella than his mistress.I don't think I'll be reading any more of JF books, she does this all the time with her H/H. It was just too much angst and not enough love."
310777,1,Waste of money,I bought 2 of these timers and within a month one stopped making any sound. The other is so quiet you have to be right next to it to hear it go off. Not worth buying.
310854,1,Boo!,"I've used this machine extensively in a doctor's office, and it worked well for quite some time, despite difficulty getting started. Recently though, it has been plagued by problems, most specifically phantom paper jams which don't actually exist but cause the whole thing to stop working. I've had to take it in for repairs at least three times, but have owned it for only about a year. Also, it sometimes refuses to recognize the toner cartridge, also causing a complete breakdown of function. If you want a reliable machine, I suggest you look somewhere else!"
310875,1,"Great, but...","Very happy with the camera for about 3 years.It is now dead as it shows white fog on any picture, asny setting.Sony will not cover that problem even though there is a settlement about the same CCD chip, but not the same problem.Good bye Sony, Hello other brands."
310962,1,Boring,"Who in there right mind gave the okay for a game based on the Da Vinci Code. Sure the movie was okay, but it was boring and so is the game. The game is exactly like the movie. It is never challenging or even interesting. I was given the game as a gift as I would have never bought it myself."
310977,1,Disappointment,I found that this was not my type of recreation reading. I could not relate to any of the characters nor did I find them compelling.
311031,1,decent,"these baskets are decent. I have baskets i got from another store which are much nicer and sturdier. the color of my baskets are definitely not espresso. they actually have a pink tint to them. they are not heavy duty baskets. the quality is nice, but i am not sure they are worth the money. i wouldnt recommend them unless you are only using them for storage."
311090,1,quick read,"The African Diary was written in Bill Bryson's usual humorous style, but it seemed like he just whipped out this book because of an obligation. I read it in less than an hour so it was less than entertaining."
311140,1,Wrong signs!!!,"You sent me the wrong signs!!! Instead of ""Customer Parking Only"" you sent me ""NO Parking"" I've been in the hospital and unable to respond till now. I am at a loss. What should I do???I don't have the packing box, nor the return label. Employee threw them out."
311161,1,item with expiration date that has expired,"I received my order that its expiration date has expired. This item is a food item and if the expiration date has expired, it should NOT be sent to the customers. It would cost me just as much to return the item than what I had initially paid for - the item and the shipping charges. Food products that has an expiration date should be checked properly before sending out to customers. I find this a ""ripped off""."
311171,1,Get it together,When ibreceived the box it was smashed and was poorly packed.Stick works fine and is great.Wouldn't Reccomend amazon warehouse to buy from though.
311201,1,I should have believed the reviews!!,"I bought this clock, after reading and ignoring the reviews. I thought, quite arrogantly ""These people can't get their clocks to work, but I'm sure with a little patience and after reading the directions, I'll have no problem. After all, a company wouldn't outright sell so many clocks that don't work, right?!"" EEERRRT. I bought 3 of these clocks. 1 works, 2 don't. I've followed the instructions--even the one's that are really quite ridiculous: Use only name brand batteries that are fully charged and within X weeks from the expiration date-DONE, hang the clock on an eastern bearing wall-DONE, wait 48 hours--DONE, hang the clock x-feet from another clock--DONE, and the list goes on! I tried to call their support number (posted on their website, and on a card that comes with the clock--and the number doesn't work!! (608-782-1610). THESE CLOCKS SUCK!! Don't waste your time or money!"
311202,1,needs a window to work,"I bought 3 of these for my office, which has very few windows. It couldn't catch a signal in the rooms I had placed them (kitchen, conference room, and front desk- none of which have windows), so after a week, I returned them and got regular clocks. The atomic technology just doesn't seem worth it when you can buy a regular clock and not have to worry about where you hang it."
311244,1,Big disapointment,"I have owned 3 Litter Maid litter boxes, and when the last one wore out, I bought this ScoopFree automatic box. I am very disappointed. Within a few months the rake stopped working. Also, it allows feces to collect behind the rake, keeping them in the box. The cartridges are just thinly plasticized cardboard, and the urine soaks through the plastic and into the cardboard. Far less than I had hoped for. I thought the use of the litter crystals was a good idea because it reduces the amount of waste created by clumping litter. Next time I will go back to Litter Maid, it is a far better designed automatic box."
311253,1,more information,Cant see if the cushions covers back and seat of chair or just the seat. Also what size is it?
311301,1,Not her best book,This is one of my favorite author's but I was disappointed in this book. Not as good as the other books I have read by her.
311306,1,Displeased,"This is a pretentious video.It is purported to tell the viewers how to make loveto women. But I doubt it has succeeded.Be warned the video might not be exciting to some people.It is something between hard-core and soft-core.There is a penetration by finger, but nothing else."
311325,1,This can not be Dana,This does not look like Dana(I have and reviewed Girls nite out Dana)the clothes look like something a flava doll would wear I mean come on! MGAE was not thinking when thay made this doll!
311354,1,Not compatible w/68 Camaro Man Trans,"The Hedman 68608 ELITE Ultra-Duty Hedders are a very nice set of headers, however, the driver's side header blocks the lower clutch linkage arm (lower arm holding the rod to the clutch fork arm) and it rides against the oil filter. Consequently, it's either not compatible with a 68 Camaro w/Man Trans or there is a manf defect in the bend.- Amazon.com processing and shipping of my order was, as always, expedient!- Amazon.com returns program is also user friendly, but I recommend you consider using other than their ""drop off UPS"" option. UPS will not insure the package using the Amazon.com label. If you don't insure the package and it's lost in transit, you will be liable and obviously not receive your credit. I experienced this problem last year with Amazon.com, however, after numerous e-mails, they agreed to credit my account...but then, it was only for a few dollars."
311379,1,Does not hold,"The tape does not hold the parts up that are needed to hold the netting up. The netting itself is pretty sturdy but I refuse to drill holes into my brand new suv to hold up $16 worth of netting. Also my pre existing hooks are not compatible with this net. I drive a 2012 equinox, guess I'll be going back to the dealership for their cargo net."
311387,1,5 stars?,NOtice that the people giving it 5 stars are the people who reviewed this product and this product alone.Sounds like employees trying to build up ratings.
311416,1,Where are the filters?!,"I hate to buy a replacement humidifier since I bought this one less than a year ago, but I can't find replacement filters! The original filter mildewed and I can't find another. Buyer's remorse."
311484,1,Garbage,"This movie makes me embarrased that I too,was a child of the 70'sNo Led Zep,Stones are here folks.Just an awful Streisand trying to convince us that this was the rock of the 70's.We all know better."
311511,1,Can't joing the chorus of praise.,"I'm a little surprised to see all the glowing positive reviews. I got this radio to listen to my two favorite news stations on the way home now that I am vanpooling. The stronger station comes in a little bit when I am lucky. The slightly weaker station is not to be found at all. I'm glad it was only a cheap experiment. I get a couple music stations, but with sound in one ear only in the headphones and poor sound at that, it's not worth it. I thought the picture made it look a little more thin and stylish than it is. But frankly I find it a bit ugly and definitely bulkier than I expected. And yes, the reception problem occurred with the antenae pulled out, which is pretty unworkable in a crowded van anyway."
311599,1,A good idea that doesn't work,"Different than other buyers I have not had the sticking problem in using this grill/griddle combo. However, the instructions state that ONLY very low to medium heat may be used. Aside from that, the surface is NOT to be exposed to open flame. Pray tell, if it is supposed to fit over two burners, how does one avoid exposure to open flame. My griddle discolored and scratched from the get-go, even with very low heat.Nathan's Grill and Griddle selling at half this price is an exact clone with the same problems mentioned in the previous paragraph.The grill/griddle combo that worked well was from Lodge and made of cast iron. Well-seasoned, it works like a trooper."
311682,1,Not so good for diving. =(,"I bought this watch to wear when I went diving. Playing in the pool, the watch was fine; however when I went diving couple weeks ago between 50 - 60 feet, it clearly was not that water resistent ... even though it claims to work up to 200 meter. I'm disappointed to say the least. So if you want a watch just to look good, fine; but if you need it for the main purpose of diving, don't waste your money."
311697,1,I can do better with a brush and my eyes closed,"Poor coverage, drips, runs, leaks, and parts dont fit together. The first on I got the O ring was mangled and had to be returned. I ended up sanding the drips, and redoing the entire area with tape and a brush (my free hand is poor). YMMV."
311729,1,Should have read the reviews,Absolutely no English subtitles. Since it's streaming there's no way to download English subtitles. A warning on the main screen telling you what language the movie is in would be really helpful Amazon.
311730,1,Not exactly what I have imagine,"I was waiting excited for the cake to arrive but after tasting it, it was not how is supposed to be. I will have second thought to purchase cake on line in the future"
311921,1,"Great Early, hard late.","I Bought this for a camping trip. I cleared the ground well, and laid down a tarp. I pitched my brand new tent on the tarp. I placed the mattress in the tent. It was very comfortable when I went to sleep. Sometime in the night, all the air leaked out of the mattress. I guess I should have aired it up and tried it out before going on a week long back pack trip. Just surprised that it leaked right out of the package. The old addage that you get what you pay for applies."
311945,1,"david better than baywatch, but...","In this movie, david Charvet starrs in a role that appears to be better for him as the role he tried on in Baywatch. His (needed) acting lessons do show of, but he still needs some coaching. Tia Carrere is a bad singer and an even worse actress. Story not too bad. Directing could have been better"
312026,1,What happened?,"I really like Amazon, I have a Kindle and love it. This was my first streaming video from Amazon and not only was a I disappointed, the movie is simply not working now. I will continue to love the company. But I'll wait for the technology to work on streaming videos."
312027,1,Skip this one,Silly and confusing plot. The film could have been run in reverse and it would not have made a difference. The acting was barely!
312031,1,Do not waste your money.,My husband rented this movie . Within five minutes he turned it off. That is pretty sad because he usually will give more time than that!!' He said it was horrible.
312037,1,DID NOT ENJOY IT AT ALL,"I had to stop watching after 10 minutes. I did not like the way it was filmed, why would a pro film like an amateur? Maybe the story was good, but the filming too annoying to watch. I hate to write bad reviews, but this film deserves it. I would not recommend this movie."
312042,1,Waste of time.,No one should watch this movie. poor acting bad language not much of a plot. Bad view always or most of the time looking from camera on person.
312052,1,Still brassy!,After reading other reviews here I had high hopes that this product would mean the end to brass in my dyed blonde hair. So I added two capsful to the L'Oreal extra light blonde tint/developer I buy at the drugstore. At first I was ecstatic at the cool ashy color I obtained after this process. But one week and two shampoos later the brass has started to reassert itself. What a disappointment! I've now ordered the Wella White Lady toner to see if its more purple color (as opposed to the blue in this one) will cancel out the yellow better and longer. Still I'd love to know why this Wella product essentially washed out. I did wait 48 hours before an initial shampoo.
312111,1,Broken,"I purchased this product because I really liked the idea of hiding the cat box. I was very disappointed when I received it, I was unable to put it together, because the manufacture cut the pieces wrong. Very frustrating. I ended up going to a local store and purchasing one that was already together. While trying to put it together, I was very disappointed to see that the wood is very flimsy.Amazon was very helpful with my return, which was greatly appreciated."
312140,1,not secure,"It was easy to put together and very spacious. It's just that when you lean on it while bending over to put something in it, some sides cave in. Also is the top is opened back too far the sides are vulnerable. The plastic doesn't lock into the base securely, thereby caving in."
312155,1,Old part and not suitable for Gateway LT2104u Notebook,"After reviewing the product's characteristics I purchased it, but it didn't perform as expected when installed in my notebook. When I consulted the manufacturer, I received comments such as: ""yes, this is the right part for your system""; """"you might need the faster memory - PC2-6400"". After reviewing the old part number."". The purchased part is old and has been replaced by faster and more reliable 2MB RAM memory sticks."
312178,1,Not the pictured item.,The picture shows a brass fitting that is threaded into the body. The one I recived did not thread in. It was built into the body. Cant be removed and not what I wanted.
312183,1,Glad i read the review,"I was looking for the original ""36th Chamber of shaolin"" i saw 15 years ago. I am glad to find that this one is not the one i was looking for."
312224,1,broken after 12 hours!,This was a birthday present and was used quite a bit on the first day. By the next morning the string was stuck inside and there is no way to open it up to untangle it. My daughter was bummed out because she liked it and it was fun when it worked. Not worth your money! It will break!
312243,1,Genre error,"I thought that this recording would contain symphony only. However, it was too wordy. One has to listen very closely to the dialogue to see what it is about. Takes too much time! Judged my mistake when told that those who bought this CD also ordered etc. Which I ordered and it too was a talk/music type recording. Therefore, wrong genre."
312251,1,HP Officejet 4315 All In One,"Fax - won't accept incoming until 2nd try. Outgoing, will only send one page, then must re-enter fax number. Extremely slow and frustrating, very labor intensive.Ink usage - must replace cartridges at least monthly. Very expensive to operate.All I want is a plain, simple fax and copy machine - this is not it. Back to Circuit City & Office Depot & Walmart tomorrow to find something better. Then throw this POS in the trash."
312279,1,wont get up to temp,"might be going back to Amazon ,wont get up to temp,350 the max i can get,cheap for the price but I'll give it a couple of days"
312295,1,So-So Sequel,"Without the witty repartee of Geoffrey Rush and Famke Janssen, the sequel falls flat. Some cool effects, but you can say that about a lot of stuff."
312317,1,Poor quality - do not buy,"This table was not packaged very well and one of the crossbars below a lazy susan was cracked. The overall quality of the table is very poor, one lazy susan was not level with the table, the joints are all screwed together and only made to somewhat look like true wood joinery. We returned the table after one week. I suggest paying a little more elsewhere and getting a better quality table."
312353,1,Too subjective,"The description to this video was misleading. I thought it would at least touch on abstinence, but it more or less dismissed abstinence as an impossibilty. It was more about how to ""have safe sex"", including anal sex with an infected partner."
312390,1,Poor Quality,Poor quality. It was sewn so poorly that it constantly looks crooked even when hung perfectly straight. Do not purchase. Not worth your money at all.
312398,1,baby alive: v so-so,"I cannot believe I bought Baby Alive after so many years of feeding and changing real babies... The novelty wore off almost immediately, daughter had an excited initial response, but once the task of purging and cleaning the dolly's system fell upon us, it was curtains. She much prefers the American Girl baby / dolls, as do I."
312447,1,Not worth it,"Berkshire Curves Above the Waist Shaper While this shaper slims the lumps, bumps, and panty lines, it makes new bulges where none normally exist. The waist does not come up high enough and therefore gives you a lovely sausage link effect just below your ribcage. I am very short waisted so it is not an issue of me being too tall for the garment. In addition to the length, the waist rolls the second you sit down or even bend over to put your shoes on. Save your money, go to Target or Macy's, and buy a pair of Assets or Spanx."
312470,1,star dust at it's finest,"This movie has an incredible cast to cover up the fact that there is no story.Sometimes an all-star cast is so much fun the story doesn't matter, not so in this particular case.This movie is long and boring because it challenges the boundaries of age, sex, race and class so unrealistically it is not to be believed. In fact the only interesting thing about the movie are all of the positves reviews. I wonder how many people would like this if it was'nt sprinkled with so much star dust. Personally I detest this sort star studded, no story kind of movie that tells you what to think, but I can't help but notice how good it has made so many older people feel, and I can't help but wonder why they can't make beautiful, tender, well acted movies with star studded casts of older actors and believable scripts so that all people can enjoy."
312510,1,1?????,I wish I had read the review earlier. I also only recieved 1 insted of a 10 pack. Over 4 dollars in shipping charges.
312563,1,disappointed,same commentary as stated above. i guess it is better to record the life performances than hear the whole cd
312567,1,POW/MIA Flag,Thank you . I can see why the were so cheep the silkscreening ran togather and does not look good upclose I will need to look eslwhere for good flags .
312618,1,READ THIS,"The author of this book discribed her self as lydia marryingMr. Darcy which made Elizabeth's character more like lydia. As for Mr. Bingley she turned him into Mr. Wickham BY HAVING HIM CHEAT ON JANE and having a son with another woman. Sorry to ruin the book for you. This book is for those who love to read romance novles, not for those who truly love Jane Austen. I would like to have a sequel to pride and prejudice but this is not it!!!!!! THERE WAS NO MINUS ZERRO'S STARS FOR THE RATING'S"
312643,1,Terrible TV,"First of all, the remote never worked since I bought this tv. If I press channel up or down, something else will happen, for example. After only a year, it would not turn on. Luckily I had gotten a warranty through Sam's Club. However, it took 2.5 months for them to service it and return it to me!! They refused to give me a new tv or pay for my cable bill while I was waiting. It finally turns on, though they did not do anything with the remote. I dare send it back again. I will never buy anything from this brand or Sam's Club again. Buyer beware"
312661,1,Don't even bother.,"It's 2007, 2 consoles have come out, but if anyone is still thinking about buying this, DO NOT. It will be lots of fun and excitement... for 1-2 weeks. Mine lasted 13 days. I was editing a code for super mario 64, and it suddenly crashed. No buildup, no warning, it just crashed. It showed a screen sort of like the one when you unplug your cable service, except the static was tinted green. It will then say it has no code space when you start it up again, and it's completely corrupted. I didn't missuse a key code, this is sm64, not zelda or anything. Interact went bankrupt, so no customer service. I suppose you could spend like, 5.35 to have fun for 14 days or less, but it's not worth it to me."
312743,1,"Nice book for novice, bad for salted fishermen","If you go to the bookstore and flip through the pages quickly, you will find a lot of illustrations and interesting fishing words. Once you buy and read it at home, you reallize this book is the 'feature' type not for you. At least not for me and all my fishing buddies."
312761,1,TEAC FD_05PUB USB Floppy Drive,I am using a Lenovo ThinkPad W510 with Windows XP service pack 3. When I plugged the drive into the USB port the computer would recognize the drive but I was not able to read any of my data disks. I received an error that the disks needed to be formatted.
312782,1,Yawn,"Could not finish this book. Felt bogged down by all the name dropping of authors which didn't seem important to move the plot along. Perhaps some creative ending that makes this approach tangible may be further in, but I can't get there"
312805,1,Don't Torture a Duckling,"Unfortunately the movie reserve to this title a great treatment, but the movie is a real good italian thriller.But not so great as expected,buts ot ok to watch and file up in your movie libary"
312851,1,Disappointed!!!,"I was very disappointed w/ this book. I had read IN THE EVENT OF MY DEATH and loved it but this wasn't a good read at all. It was only a little over 200 pages but it took me 7 days to read it, I finally just skipped to the back to find out who had done it. The lead character in it got on my nerves so bad that I wished somebody would have slit her wrist so she would ""shut up"". Ashley the dog was best written than any of the other characters. I will not give up on Charlene Thompson, for I'm hopingto find another one like IN THE EVENT OF MY DEATH."
312890,1,Strictly for Fans,"Unless you're a rabid fan of Frampton it's kinda sad seeing him up there with this lacklustre band churning out those classics from Frampton Comes Alive - sure, his voice is totally intact, his guitar playing is all there and he looks healthy enough (although it's pretty hard reconciling this trim, greying and bespectacled mid-lifer with the image of that 70's rock star with the Roger Daltery-esque curls.) But it's a pretty shlocky concert and it just lack all the elements that defined him as a terrifically talented and cool star in the 70's.The sound quality (on DTS) is fine so I give this one two stars."
312930,1,cd's ok dvd's no,"the older labels work great the newer ones are great for cd but not dvd freezes and comes up with error codes on three players.real drag because i found out after labeling a large amount of dvd's. like other review took a couple labels off dvd plays fine, bummer.labels looked great."
312948,1,The Trailer Trash Biography on Ethel Merman,"Obviously, this man has nothing on his mind but sex and secrets, because that is all this horrific book is about. With the exception of several interesting tidbits about ""Gypsy"" (Her dislike for Sandra Church, etc.) all this book covers is secrets about Ethel Merman and her sex life. We needn't hear about how one of her breif marriages was ruined because her husband couldn't get an erection. We needn't hear how Merman desperately tried to have an affair with ""Gypsy"" composer Jule Styne. What we want to hear is stories about her shows- the staging, the backstage turmoil and triumph.There is an interesting listing of televison shows, films and stage shows featuring Merman, however, besides that, this is utter trailer trash."
312959,1,Broken on first use,"During the pasta making process, after about 20 ziti, the spindle wore against the hopper and ended up melting the spindle. The broken spindle continued to work, but not as intended. If you don't want plastic in your diet, I would recommend NOT buying this piece of junk.I can't imagine how it would work for grinding meat if it can't handle pasta dough."
312977,1,"Boring, Disappointing, Just OK","Hey... I bought this hoping to see interviews with Jerry Garcia, and other prominent and famous people yet was disappointed when such footage was not in the film.From the description it seems like such content is on the dvd but no it is not.Interesting people are on for seconds, and I only felt an emotion to this film maybe once or twice.The whole film is about ""what do I do with my life, yada, yada""... meanwhile!...!..... the guy who made this film- the main dude in the movie- is makin money off the film. So thanks man, make money off the people (who bought your movie) who really need direction in their life.And also, thanks for having such a decieving description of your film, on the back of the DVD and on the product description on amazon."
313010,1,Do Not Try This With Windows 7 64 bit,"Wish I had researched the existing reviews before I purchased.Have had very good luck with Netgear products in the past.I couldn't get this PCI Wireless card to install on a Windows 7 64 bit workstation. The driver on their website indicates it is Windows 7 compatible, but a call to tech support confirmed this is not Windows 7 64 bit compatible. You will get a code 10 error. Google this and you will see what I mean.I am returning the card. Tech support indicated none of their wireless PCI cards are Windows 7 64bit compatible. Hard to believe with all the new systems available."
313028,1,Danger - wrong item shipped,"If you're ordering an impact socket, you probably already know that regular sockets can literally explode if used with an impact wrench. I ordered a Michigan Industrial Tools 1/2"" drive x 15/16"" shallow impact socket to use with my impact wrench. Unfortunately, the merchant shipped a regular socket rather than an impact socket. I would have rated this item one star, but Amazon stepped in and refunded my money without requiring me to ship back the regular socket. Five stars for Amazon and zero for the merchant, which averages out to 2.5 stars. I'm rounding down to two stars because I'm still upset that someone who didn't know better might have been injured by this mistake."
313065,1,REALLY bad,"Even if you like cheesy scary movies, you should still to PASS on this one.Not even worth going into the story/plot in this review it's just not worth it.Poor quality picture, crappy acting, crappy script, very tedious to sit through and if you make it to the end without turning it off, you're rewarded with a very unsatisfying ending.(And while the only other review on Amazon rates this rather highly, 9 of 10 reviews on Blockbuster.com agree with me). This is not a popular movie FOR A REASON."
313080,1,apt title,"after giving this book a respectable amount of time to develop, i found it to be so aptly titled--it smelled so bad it made my eyes water."
313096,1,Incompatibility of DMS1 with Rhapsody v 3,I was advised by Omnifi Support that the Media Player may not work well with the new Rhapsody version 3 software. That's definitely a major drawback.
313124,1,Be careful,"Before this book came out there was an article about it in the Women's World magazine. In fact on the jacket of the book it reads, ""As seen in Women's World."" I ordered the book after reading about the diet in the magazine. It sounded like a great way to go but I was disapointed. After reading the book I realized that someone was trying to hide the fact that this diet is extremely difficult if not imposible to do on your own. The book's author runs a detox center, where, if you want to spend thousands of dollars you will have someone waiting on you hand and foot while you do the diet. That is about the only way you are going to do the diet. The supplements taste terrible and are very expensive. The book never talks about that of course. In fact I believe the author of the book tried to hide many facts about the diet deep inside the book or left them out completely. So, be careful, it's not what it seems. The book was poorly written in my opinion."
313125,1,21 lbs lost,I was disappointed in the book. It did not contain what I thought it would. I would not recommend it.
313131,1,Go for the turbo mouse,"If you don't really care about precision don't bother reading. The Turbo Mouse, despite its name, is another kensington trackball. It's not as pretty as the orbit (just gray) but it is far superior to ANY trackball on the market and it has 4 buttons. After having to leave my old Turbo Mouse with a former employer I tried several cheaper substitutes (FYI: Macally products are nearly useless) but ended up spending the loot on the Turbo Mouse. Check it out...take apart your trackball and look at the guts. The ball rests on low friction surfaces right? Look closely now, they may try to fool you. The turbo mouse is the only trackball I've found that rolls on bearings. Smoother than a baby's...uh....frictionless surfaces. Oh... don't even get me started on optical trackballs...have you ever tried to use PhotoShop with an optical trackball? It's like painting with mud. But if you just use Word and EMail ignore me...don"

313312,1,Don't buy this product.,I bought this and I deeply regret it.It is the same as if you had nothing. Don't waste your time and money on this crap.I can not believe that amazon sells such a terrible product. The good reviews that you see is probably from people that are family of the seller.Just hate this thing.
313330,1,BBQ Gloves,"After reading the review, I bought these for my BBQ guy. Unfortunately, they were WAY too small for guy-hands and too big for mine."
313402,1,Forced to a Later Version,"I used Photoshop for years but lost it when my computer crashed. I bought PSE5 because I read that it was most like full PS in appearance. After I ordered it, I read that it would not work properly with Windows 7, so I did not load it on my computer. If you have anything later than VISTA, don't buy it. Makes me crazy when companies intentionally make products obsolete! You are at their mercy. Instead, I bought PSE10 and find that it is a really fine alternative to the full PS. PSE10, as well as most of the earlier versions is a perfect editing and enhancing program for most amateur or intermediate photographers with many many of the same features PS offers, and way more features than the basic editing programs provided by camera software and factory loaded programs. PSE...any version, yes!"
313420,1,Format Change is a Rip-Off!,"Like the first reviewer of this calendar, I purchased it expecting the see the great photos of plants as I flipped the pages. I kept many of them so I could look for the plant for my garden. I was horrified to find nothing but text on this year's ""365 Days in the Garden"". This is a total... , particularly since there is nothing on the front of the box that forewarns the buyer of the format change."
313458,1,"Not in ""Plan 9"" league","In my opinion, this film doesn't reach the ""so bad it's good"" levelthat Plan 9 from Outer Space does. In reference to an earlier reviewer:anybody who says Tori Spelling CAN act is nuts. ""You'll find yourselflaughing at the absurd, over-the-top acting of all characters involved.Tori Spelling's bad acting is to be expected, but it's an extraterrible masterpiece in Mother, May I Sleep with Danger. Her canoepaddling scene will have you in stitches as you watch her struggle touse the paddles. Ivan Sergei is laughable as the crazy boyfriend with apenchant for danger. Her mother (you know, the one she's asking if it'sokay to sleep with danger) is awkward and annoying."" Though planned tobe released in theaters, it couldn't find a distributor willing to showit and had to be shown on TV. That should tell you something."
313530,1,Drys out,"When I purchased this product, I was so excited because I thought it would be great for my daughter. But after setting it up, and filling the dispenser with water, I came back in a couple of hours and the water was already empty. I figured it may have just been that I did something wrong. So I reread the directions and found I hadn't made any mistakes. I tried a couple more times but came back and each time the water would aready have been used up and one time I left it over night and went to change my daughter in the morning and the wipes were completly brown and dry. I'm not sure if my product was defective."
313543,1,Recording quality an issue,"This recording is a disappointment because it skips at least a half-dozen times during one of the pieces (Dona Nobis Pacem). It is apparently a re-mastered recording but the skips are very distracting to say the least! Also, the audio portion consists only of stills of old photographs."
313544,1,Hate Monger's Story Book,"Mr Jan, has once again proved that his hate for Pakistan and its place in world pushes him to the last extent to write these kinds of books. I must say he writes very well from the point of view of a hate monger and a total pessimist. It feels as if he is trying to please some people in and around the south east Asia. If you want to read this than must say get some pain killers because your head will hurt a lot!!!!!"
313621,1,Don't waste your time,"We saw this movie over 20 years ago, and it STILL tops our top WORST MOVIES list. Do not waste your time on this one. Take our word for it...we know why it hasn't been released on DVD."
313695,1,PRODUCT UPDATE: Have you read about the refills?,"We used to love this product too. But... wait! Things have changed!Before you buy it, I recommend you read the reviews on the new Diaper Dekor Plus ""biodegradable refill bags"". The Diaper Dekor Plus used to be a great product, then they discontinued the regular refills and replaced them with an alternative that is getting terrible reviews.The new bags do not contain odor like the originals, they are more expensive and they are packaged in such a way that the ""green benefit"" is completely offset by the extra cardboard packaging required to buy 6 refills.Don't get duped by the OLD reviews. This product has changed and not for the better."
313702,1,"arrived sunday, departed wednesday","We bought the Diaper Dekor to replace a Genie that we had for over two years. The Genie had really begun to smell after all that time. After doing some research and reading the reviews, we decided to give the Dekor a try.Well, it arrived in the house on a Sunday. It was decided on Tuesday that it would be leaving. While it is truly more convenient than the Genie (step & drop), it did not contain the odor of a toddler diaper well. In fact, both my wife and I began to notice the smell by the time it had no more than 3 diapers in it. At first we thought we must be doing something incorrect. However, we reviewed everything again and decided that the Dekor really couldn't contain odors the way it claimed.We bought another Genie to replace the old one."
313713,1,Didn't work for us,"Wouldn't run on our computer - we got ""Typing Instructor for Kids"" and it works smoothly on our computer and our daughter learned proper typing within a week - years later she is still typing properly."
313776,1,Perhaps better information elsewhere?,"I did not like this book because: It was too short. It was only 60 pages. 60 pages of paper stapled in the center. The information could be helpful to some If they had never read anything anywhere else ever about carpeting. I didn't feel like this ""book"" was worth the money. I think there might be more informative resources at a more economical value for the carpet buying consumer."
313816,1,Don't bother with this version anymore,"As you may know, Maxis has released a new version of SimCity 3000, dubbed SimCity 3000 Unlimited.... The new features, like tile set switching, a map editor, scenarios, and even a scenario creator are more than worth the extra $.NOTE: The one star is not for the quality of the game; in fact it is my personal favorite, it is just that there is a better version avaliable!"
313835,1,Such a disappointment,"I love Niven's work, and Pournelle's no slouch :), but this book really disappointed me. Maybe because Mote was so incredible, maybe not. Basically, my impression of the book is a bunch of characters running around in space doing not much for 3-400 pages. Maybe I need to read it again. But, I can say that this is the only Niven book that I didn't like upon finishing. But don't let it discourage you! All of his other books are 4-5 stars, and the Pournelle collaborations 5+ (Mote, Lucifer's Hammer -- CLASSICS)."

313850,1,Horrible answering machine!,"I purchased this phone a year ago. The answering machine has never worked well. It randomly cuts off messages and blanks out in the middle of messages. I'm so disappointed, unfortunately I did not keep my receipt! Lesson learned!"
313918,1,Don't believe the hype,"A lot of reviews on here rate this DVD highly because the kids like it. Some kids would like ice cream and gummy bears for every meal but that doesn't mean parents should provide them. This DVD is really, really disturbing. The plot is strange and dark and made me (as an adult) uncomfortable. Many videos have some sort of fantasy/mysticism but this one was closer to the dark side of things. (Side note--it's not even rated.) The female characters are dressed inappropriately (very short skirts, midriffs) and some of the dialogue and visuals are sexually suggestive. Yes, your kids will probably like it. Don't buy it."
313963,1,Conversation with the Devil,Will Shad's book had me hooked in the beginning and then I had to stop reading. His reflections on God's plan for the world started to take an evil facist twist towards women being less smart than men and Aids being created by God because he thinks homosexuals should be exterminated. His word play(a direct imitation of Walsh's books)were so annoying after a while that any depth was lost. What a ripoff of Neale Donald Walsch's books. This book should be taken off your list that even associates with Walsh's books. Its the first book I have ever burned.
314029,1,"Eh, so so","Too flowery!! There wasn't much information. Actually there wasn't any information. It was just empty flowery words flowing from the front page to the back. It's written well, but there isn't any content to it."
314045,1,Not Safe - tips too easily,"We purchased this bike for christmas for our 2 year old daughter. She was pushing it around but not pedling it. Well, now after 4 months she is ready to ""ride her bike"" but everytime she gets on and gets going, turning a corner, it tips her off and she gets hurt. The distance between the back wheels and the front wheel is too close (easy folding) making the bike very easy to tip over and she falls on her head and shoulder, pinning her under the bike. I do not recommend this tri cycle for anyone that wants to encourge riding all we've had is tears,scars and now she doesn't want to ride anything, for fear of falling off. We are off today to find a new bicycle that will help her, not frighten her."
314063,1,Where is my product?,I ordered the mic and after waiting several weeks realized that they shipped it to a completely different State. I have sent two requests to the company with NO response. I DO NOT recommend.
314080,1,treat toy,This is nice if your dog doesn't chew. My Border Collie distroyed his the first time i gave it to him. My little dogs do well with theirs but need to monitor my BC around them so he doesn't eat the whole thing. It is nice for dogs that eat their meals to fast.
314172,1,not worth,"I used this for only one time. It stopped working second time I put it into the pool, and had to return it."
314206,1,silly design flaw,"The ostensible purpose of these is ""security"", that is, the need to have an allen wrench to unscrew the skewer. Sure enough, the skewer rod itself has an Allen head, and indeed requires an allen wrench; however, in their infinite wisdom, the Axeldrodz creators cut convenient wrench flats into the *other* side, the nut the skewer rod screws into; thus anyone with an adjustable wrench or even pliers can open the skewer without bothering with the allen side. The nut should have been totally smooth dome, denying any purchase; what moved them to cut wrench flats into it is beyond me. The skewer will function ok as a regular skewer, but if you want security, either get something like Zefal, or at least replace the nut with smooth one scavenged from an older skewer - many of them have smooth-domed nuts."
314228,1,Overrated,"This book is completely overrated. The jokes were cheap and obvious, and the advice was poor at best. The only decent message from this book is that pregnancies are different. She tells stories about 4 or 5 of her pregnant friends that are good examples of this, but the friends seem made up just to illustrate the point. Overall I found it to be a real downer. There's a lot to laugh about during pregnancy, but this book doesn't really capture it."
314230,1,Stressed Me Out,"As a soon-to-be first time mother, this book caused me a lot of stress and very little reassurance. The author portrays pregnancy and childbirth as such an awful experience that will forever wreck your body, and if not careful, will cause your husband to cheat on you. And god forbid you want to try for a natural birth! By the end of the book, I was so anxious about everything related to pregnancy, that I had to go out immediately and find an uplifting pregnancy book to read (""The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding"").The only nice thing I can say about this book is that the first couple of chapters were a little funny. And then it just got repetitive, catty, and sad."
314235,1,"The Worst, most Horrifyng Book on Pregnancy","I am pregnant with my first baby, excited and, obviously, clueless. I thought this would be the perfect book for me. After reading the entire thing, I am scared out of my mind. It was nothing but negative, as if pregnancy were the worst thing that could ever happen to anyone. Even when the author talks about seeing the baby for the first time, her emphasis is on how ugly he or she will be. I realize that her aim is to be truthful, which she is, but can't she find anything to be happy about? She seems to be one of those women who hate their children for giving them stretch marks and extra pounds. If you are looking for an upbeat, caring guide to pregnancy, this is NOT it."
314240,1,Read this book if you want to be terrified!!!,"After reading this book I almost changed my mind about having children! It mainly focuses on negativity and the author gives you the impression that almost any horror of pregnancy is an inevitability. There are definite pros and cons to having an epidural, but Vicky makes it seem like your only intelligent choice is to have one. I would not recommend this book for a first time mom learning about pregnancy. I did not find this book amusing, nor did my husband."
314307,1,Not Recommended for the Price,"For being the ""hottest"" toy of the season, it does not hold up for it's value. We purchased a FurReal for our daughter & talk about disappointment. It lasted a total of an hour. It died on Christamas day! All it does is make a grinding noise, no purr, no body movement. I went to the Hasbro website & apparently they know about this & want to hear from consumers if this happens to their cat. Well, I wrote & have yet to hear back. Hopefully they will stand behind there product & replace it. So, in a nutshell, I do not recommend this product."
314346,1,Awful is too kind for this steaming heap of garbage,"What an awful book. It's the literary equivalent of going to the dentist only to find that a substitute who doesn't care about you or your teeth has taken over for the week, and whose skill set is decidedly lacking. The book is depressing, plodding and uninspiring. It was a waste of time and money and I literally threw my copy in the garbage lest any friends of mine idly picked it off my bookshelves thinking it might be worth reading. Perhaps the author has done better in her other efforts. If so, bully for her, but this was a decided miss."
314387,1,Got a toe run in both feet first time,"I didnt get more than one, maybe 2 wears out of them. Felt nice just not reinforced well in the toes"
314456,1,Use with game consoles...,"The Xbox 360 does not recognize this device.This device is fully functional with the PS3, but it is very quiet. Too quiet. Unless you're gaming in silence, this will likely be as unusable to you, as it was with me. I don't plan on returning it because it was inexpensive and return shipping would cost more than I paid for it.Side note: The speaker looks very cheap. I'll try to take some pictures later."
314498,1,Not what I was expecting,"This perfume smells really good but as many others reviewers said, it does not last longer than 1H.I hate the fact that i paid $35 for one perfume that is just a Counterfeit!!!!!Don't waste your money on this One.Anyway, the perfume smells great, I will probably go to some store that sells the original Burberry London and buy one that lasts on me.I hope it helped!!! :)"

314561,1,"Not a ""Pogromchik, but a Hero & Victim of Marxist Murderers!","The long claws of the Soviet Communist regime and its agents reached wherever they had to - in Brussels, Munich, Mexico, Prague and even Paris, right on Blvd. St-Michel itself, in broad daylight, in 1926. The murder of Simon Petliura was a cowardly act of a Communist agent and assassin, Schwartsbard, acting on orders. The Soviets, their collaborators and sympathizers worked hard to achieve Marxist goals - but in the end they failed, totally rejected and repudiated. Petliura became a national hero, and his stature only continues to grow, especially after the demise of the Soviet Union, as many facts about the assasination have come to light. Many of the old Soviet-era assumptions are being discarded as nothing but lies and fabrications. The memory of not only of Ukrainian heroes but others as well will always inspire new generations of those who value freedom."
314612,1,har-har-har-har!,I think its about time ol' Chucky re-reads this book instead of gloating about being a winner with Dungy's team.
314632,1,Bought it and was not satisfied.,"First one lasted 3 days then quit working. [...]That one never worked right out of the box. Koolatron didn't respond to my emails about the second unit. I wouldn't recommend this product, nor any other product from this company."
314644,1,Poor quality cable,"I have ordered this cable because I have seen so many people gave it 5 star rates. However, when I hook this cable from my HP laptop to my Sony HD TV, it doesn't even display any image. I used this cable to connect my desktop pc to monitor, it worked by the fonts are blurry. I used my desktop vga cable connected to the HP laptop to TV, it worked great. Today, I connected my lenovo laptop to an external monitor by using this line. It gives me the blurry fonts too. Sooo annoying. Because it's a cheap cable, I would not bother to return it, but have to dispose it. I put my comments here for people tends to buy it consider the opposite opionion and not do the same thing as what I have done already."
314709,1,Amazon cancels orders,"I ordered this. I waited a week. Then, Amazon emailed me that they could not fulfill my order. And yet - it is still on their site as available. Shame on them."

314741,1,Disappointed - disgusted,"Received as a gift, tried first time at a full daylight baseball game. Camera auto-shutoff between pitches makes it impossible to get quick action shots. Difficult to retrieve the photos, due to the poor driver software that locks up your PC, requires disconnecting other USB devices. Defective photos: images have jagged horizontal lines in neon colors bisecting the middle (where the interesting part of the photo should be). The (partial) images below the jagged horizontal lines have incorrect colors - baseball fields are not deep purple! I'm sorry I wasted my time with it."
314891,1,Beware of shipping costs,"I ordered six of these, along with 2 albums, and they came from Adorama camera. After they arrived I discovered that the shipping cost was extremely high. Their policy is to charge shipping on each individual item, even though, of course, they are all sent in one package. I complained and got a partial refund on the charges, but the way they do it is clearly a rip-off."
314974,1,"FOR THE FIRST NEW CROW NOVEL, VERY POOR....","Upon reading this book again(my first review back in 2000 and btw..thats my mother's ID..my ID is Deaderman)., I find myself with a dislike for the story now. I applaud the originality of linking the crow with Edgar Allen Poe. I would say that i dislike the story for the simple fact of the Batlimore Goths and the seemingly forced love of Amy and William Blessing. I would not recommend this book to a new crow fan wanting to get into these. Most fans would say that the bad guys in CoA were poorly written and just plain crappy. Well, these guys are far worse. Makes you want to get the story over with just to get away from these poorly executed characters. I would very much agree with all of these negative reviews and in fact join them. Now, onto reading the Lazarus Heart.."
314978,1,Terrible - Do Not Buy!!,The grandparents bought this for our four year old for Christmas. They live out of town so he got it early yesterday. It broke twice before we could put it together. These race tracks with the flimsy plastic peices are not worth the money.
315007,1,Very disappointed,I received this clay and it came dry. I had a hard time getting it workable. I had bought the clay to teach a Girl Scout troop about pinch pots. We added water to it to try to reconstitute it. Very unhappy.
315094,1,Horrible Speed Drop,"I bought this router for the Cisco name and for the ""business class"" reputation. When I got it the my broadband speed dropped from 16G to 4. I called tech support and did the normal firmware update, testing, etc. Nothing they did helped. They offered to send me a new one but the RMA's aren't new so beware. They are refurbished ones the tech said. I didn't want someone else's problem so I elected a refund. Stay away from this router"
315103,1,"Clinical, not spiritual, a little tough to read","I've read a lot of break up books since my break up. This book was helpful, but not sure if it actually helped me? Anyway, I found 2 sites...one for girls and for guys that ended up helping me because of the support groups. brokenheartedgirl.com and brokenheartedguy.com. Sometimes you need to talk to people and they also recommend other books."
315147,1,Not worth the money,This book is nothing but a promotion for a specific brand of NAC eyedrops. NAC eyedrops work (I am using a different brand and my opthemologist confirmed that my vision went from 20/50 to 20/30 in 6 months!) but I am not using the brand in the book and the book basically says that other brands will not work.I was hoping it would give more info on the actual research.
315172,1,You get what you pay for!,Get the yellow Champion. this one was a waste of time and money. The first one broke so had to have another shipped. The second one broke and that was enough for me. Both times it was internal things that you can't fix yourself and both times it was within the first hour of operation.
315186,1,Total price gouging!,The first Staticmaster I ever bought was $9.95 and refill cartridges were $4.95. When refills hit $19.95 I quit. Now at $80.00 the company can go bankrupt for all I care. I will never buy another one! There are many less expensive alternatives that are just as good. Goodbye Staticmaster!
315221,1,Waste of space,"You might think this thing is fancy and convenient, but it is not accurate. The click inside; it is so crude it only locks every inch or more. So your accuracy at best would be + or - 1 inch. It gives me readings that are an inch and a quarter off actual when measured with a regular tape. Don't even waste your five dollars and allow this company to keep making garbage products."
315247,1,Mostly Public Domain Garbage,"To be fair I've only seen a fraction of the movies on this set. I found out about it a day after I bought a ""film noir collection"" and an Edward G. Robinson collection which yielded 5 of the films included here. I netflixed a collection that included three more to see wheather I should chalk up not buying this set as a mistake and try to get what ever I could for the set I had and buy this instead. Now I'm glad I kept the nine dollar difference. ""Impact"" ""Second Woman"" ""Scarlet Street"" and ""They made me a Criminal"" are awful. ""Too Late for Tears"", ""Kansas City Confidential"", and ""The Stranger"" are OK. ""He walked by Night"" is barely passable. I sort of wish I could see ""Suddenly"" because it sounds interesting, as do ""Quicksand"" and ""Jigsaw"" and I definately admire ""Detour"" if only for its strict adherence to noir conventions and its creative manuvering around the Hayes Office's provision that the bad guy must be punished."
315310,1,Disappointed with new formula,I also loved the previous formula - the new styling creme just doesn't work for me. It used to have wonderful hold without feeling at all stiff but now it doesn't give my hair nearly as much body as the old creme did. I wish the company would bring back the old product but I've given up hoping.
315314,1,Not good,"I attended a lecture of Mr. McCauley at the London School of Economics (fancy name but rotting buildings). He really has no understanding of the country I was born in , the Soviet Union, or Russia today . I made the error of believing he might know more about Afghanistan. I was wrong"
315356,1,Book is good but poor image resolution on Kindle,"This is very good hiking guide book. We are looking for hiking course for our 4 years old son. It categorized difficulty and easy to find hiking course for each level. We are very happy with it contents. I would give 4 or 5 stars for paper version.Problem we have is image resolution on Kindle. We bought Kindle edition and resolution of map is too low. It is hard to read letters in the map. Be aware, Image you see in preview is from paper book not from Kindle. Kindle book doesn't have resolution of preview image. Since this is hiking guide, map is very important and I wouldn't recommend kindle edition."
315379,1,HairMax,I tried the HairMax for about a month but noticed no change in my hair in any way at all. I did not think it was worth continuing and I needed to return for a refund before the time ran out.
315443,1,built-in splash guard hurts,"I have had a number of potty seats over the years, in particular Mommy's Helper Cushie Traveler, Disney soft potty seat, Munchkin Deluxe potty seat, Graco's potty trainer, and my son was fine on all of them, as long as they were soft. With this particular one, he hates it, he says the built in splash guard is hurting him and he won't make on it. The other day we were using it at grandma's house, he really needed to go potty, he tried it, and then demanded that we go home so he can go on a different potty seat. we had no choice and we had to leave. will try it again to see if he gets used to it, but it's weird that such a soft potty seat would hurt him and none of the other ones we tried ever did."
315471,1,I wouldn't buy it again,"I bought this thermometer because of the price (Who can afford spending $100 on a thermometer?) It is great when it works, if it works. I changed the battery twice (not an easy task) to make sure that was not the problem. Sometimes the thing turns on, and sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes I find it ON in the drawer (I don't believe in ghosts...)Sometimes it shuts itself off in the middle of a reading. I don't use it anymore, it is going straight to the Salvation Army."
315520,1,Three Days to Business Success,I just downloaded this. It is not much more than a (somewhat short) magazine article. I was disappointed. I thought that for over $5.00 I would be buying more.
315539,1,Not indestructable!,"Not only was I disappointed that the vehicle didn't include the battery pack which we purchased for another $30, but my 7 year old son ran it through a large water puddle in the yard after 15 minutes of playing time and now it doesn't work at all! For an outdoor toy, it would seem reasonable to expect a child would drive it through puddles and that it would still work!"
315542,1,Disappointment,"What a disappointment. We ordered the Traveldock 900 for Christmas for our son's Creative Zen M mp3 player. There are not a lot of these devices on the market for Creative so we were happy to see this one. Unfortunately, when you put the MP3 player on the base it is unstable and actually partially blocks one of the speakers. The sound definitely does not ""fill a room."" Kudo's to Amazon for promptly refunding our money."
315602,1,stale taste,"Not nearly healthy enough to allow for the almost rancid taste. Probably not stale since the chips are crisp, but a very unpleasant aroma and taste."
315642,1,didnt work,I gotthis because I was having a nitir problem after cleaning the gravel with the gravel vav it made my water very cloudy have been working for 2 weeks trying to fix the water after using this
315663,1,Buy the updated version!,"Please note how old this edition is (1992!) and choose the updated editionEat Well, Lose Weight, While Breastfeeding: The Complete Nutrition Book for Nursing Mothers. We've learned a lot about diet, nutrients, and bfing in the last 14+ years!"
315685,1,not worth anything,I bought this for my two kids for road trips. The hanger on one broke almost immediately and the adjustment on the table was impossible. It does NOT fold flat without having to remove the hangers and push with all your strength. I have even scrapped my hands trying to adjust it. This product is a good idea but poorly made.
315713,1,cheap pans,Pans are cheap and rusted after one use this is the worst pan set ever and should be pulled from shelves.
315795,1,"If you are looking for cheap, buy these!","I work on heavy industrial machinery and the main problem I had with these Allen wrenches is the material is softer than the bolts that I use. The ends of the wrenches, especially the smaller sizes, frequently get rounded off when tightening bolts so I would have to grind off the ends to get a square surface. If you need a heavy duty T-handle, I recommend Eklind products."
315908,1,Did nothing for me...,"I'm actually shocked that it did nothing. I had read plenty, took the right dosage, even doubled it at one point. Not a thing. Went to the doc, tested my testosterone levels, they were unchanged. If you have low testosterone, go see your doctor. That stuff works."
315933,1,counterfeit?,"the batteries barely held a charge. One to three photos per charge. Took to an authorized Nokon repair center. They checked my camera, charger, and the batteries. I was told that these were extremely close counterfeits."
315983,1,not much content,"Did you already know that:--it is worthwhile to practice a foreign language with native speakers?--audiovisual materials could help you?--foreign language dictionaries could help you?--a foreign language varies from region to region?--customs differ from one culture to another?--one should be sensitive to non-verbal cues?--there are formal and informal forms in some languages?If so, then you probably won't learn much from this book."
315999,1,"Has its moment, but basically dull","Reading this book I couldn't help getting the impression that the author was going through the motions with this tale, and struggling to do even that. The plot here is workaday, the characters rather unattractive, and the twists not very twisty. Also there's too much dull information about finance, which really doesn't help. Overall, disappointing."
316002,1,Don't buy it.,"I got the wobble light and immediately tried to set it up. The holes that the screws hold the lamp cover on with were drilled incorrectly. It appears someone tried to fix this problem using a utility knife and it didnt work. I had to re-drill the holes then buy and install different screws, I should not have to do this.The light is bright and lights a very large area. The switch is solid an I have switched it on and off a good few hundred times by now. The bulb has lasted for over two years and still appears very bright and throws off good light. The unit itself is tough and virtually impossible to knock over and when it is the light rights itself and keeps working.For all of it's good points, the light is let down badly by its construction. I am very disappointed in the condition the light arrived in and the time it took to set up. A little more care during construction would have made this light 5 out of 5.Sadly, I still can't I recommend this product after two years ownership."
316013,1,know when to fold,forever a hustler's wife should have never been put on paper. I did not enjoyed this book at all Ms Turner destoryed a true classic.
316050,1,Capacitors issue,"The product has a capcitor issue, that will come up right after the warranty expires, once you call for support, they aknowledge an issue on the capacitor and will tell you that your TV was produced on the only day that the batch was good, so SAMSUNG will not honor any warranty or deffects, be prepare to pay a lot of money on repairs after the second year, or plan to buy a brand new one after 2 years"
316077,1,Looks and feels cheap,"I bought this when it was a gold box deal and I was so disappointed. Everything about it looked cheap. It looked like something a pre-teen would buy from Claire's in a mall. Needless to say, I returned it immediately."
316080,1,"OK, but not close to OEM","It was cheap, but it is cheap. It vibrates and is not nearly as stable as the one that came with the car, and it whistles because it was not designed well enough. There is a line or a hole or something that whistles at any speed over about 25 mph and is quite annoying."
316202,1,Flammable,I got rid of it...too dangerous.I didn't realize how dangerous it can be.I am afraid to use it.I can't say how it works since I threw it out.
316257,1,It confusing Services?,"This book is very formal approach to IT services. Please don't give it to your customers/clients it will scare them. If you need humor or analogies to make things clear consider another book.The book is very hard to read with wordy sentences. Simplicity is much better, and this book makes some things even more confusing."
316274,1,Maxtor - NO STARS,"DO NOT BUY THIS DRIVE, OR SIMULAR, IT WILL LOSE YOUR DATA, TYPE MAXTOR TOUCH II INTO ANY SEARCH ENGINE AND YOU WILL FIND ENDLESS CASES OF PEOPLE LOSING THEIR DATA.THE ANSWER FROM MAXTOR - ""JUST FORMAT YOUR DRIVE"".THATS GREAT, IF YOU DON'T MIND LOSING THE 200GB OF DATA YOU HAVE JUST PAID $150 TO STORE.THANKS MAXTOR !!"
316306,1,Overpriced. Terrible layout.,"This is a really thin book, and for the price, the production value is terrible. The graphic design, and poor layout, takes a lot away from the information of the book. Page after page, you wonder if this recent publication was from the 1980s.The information was light, and just skimmed over details. There was WAY too much emphasis on Analog. There are other search softwares out there. The case studies were nice, but no real insight was given.Overall - it's an overpriced fluff book. Could be summaried in 5 pages."
316351,1,CD RECORDING WAS VERY GARBLED,"the recording was garbled. Could hardly hear the narrarator. I don't believe that I am the only one who got a bad CD.I wish I could write the seller about this problem, just in case, hoping to get a response.M. Hassan, MD"
316354,1,Awful. Not much else to say,"I give paper fortune a 3-4 out of five stars. The Kindle edition is horrible, a complete waste of time. You get a few of the main articles, but most of the rest of what shows up turns out to be tiny little bits of junk: Text boxes and pullout-garbage (I used to work in the magazine world) that is essentially page filler in the printed editions. I thought this was so cheap it would have to be worthwhile, but unless they include more meat, this is a total waste of money. Better to get the WSJ or Financial Times."
316417,1,"""Brain"" Dead?","A towering monmument to mediocrity. With the exception of a handful of first-rate ads (Designing Eye furniture, Discovery Channel, The Peabody Hotel), the creative showcased in ""Brain Darts"" is devoid of wit, daring or originality. It's second rate stuff that doesn't begin to compare with the breakthrough work routinely created by fellow Miami agency Crispin Porter & Bogusky. I can't believe they honestly believed the ads for Bet Shira, Bacardi and Multivision - to mention just a few - actually merited publication in a book. This shows a shocking lack of judgement on the part of the authors."
316437,1,Terrible Album-Not Underrated at all,"Full of cliches, both lyrically and musically. Derivative drivel with embarrassing lyrics. The hit single is not strong enough to carry this. Don't waste your money or your time."
316455,1,a little disappointed,"I felt a little disappointed after having read all the reciepes and such. I was looking for a story. The story was good but not Francines best work. Her Mark of the Lion series, Voice in the wind, An echo in the darkness ect. had me on my knees several times petitioning Our Lord to have a spirit like the character Haddesa. Those books showed the world for what it truly is but also gave us the hope that can only come from being in obedience to God."
316459,1,Do Not Buy This Product,First of all the instructions for assembling this bed is extremly poor. The material is cheap and I do not recomend this product to anyone.
316536,1,Oh no no no,"From one of his own great songs - ""Oh no no no"". I reviewed ""The Film Album"" saying Neil is a great writer and singer - but not of other peoples material. This album just proves my point. ""Don't Be Cruel"" - don't sing it again. I listened to it wondering if I could hear Elvis spinning in his grave. Stick to your own material Neil, you're superb at that, but please please not this."
316601,1,DO NOT BUY!! SO HARD TO FIND WORKING BOOKS.,"I loved the idea of this toy as well-but it truly does not work with most of the books out there. It works with the two books it came with-I even went so far as to return my Story Reader and get a new one thinking it was defective. It was not-the magnets on the book do not work. I have bought two separate three packs brand new from two stores-neither have any books that work. They short out because the Story Reader can not read the magnet. Occasionally I can get them to read a sentence but they are all unusable. I have so many friends that have the same problem. I am stuck with useless books that do not work and a Story Reader that I can use only the two original books with. It is a good idea in theory, but it really does not work. Please DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!"
316605,1,junk,$25 worth of junk. I spent 30 minutes shaving my head with it and still ended up with the worst hair cut of my life. Maybe another hour or so and I can get all my hair the same length.
316743,1,Why?,"Sullen, confused, pensive, self-questioning? Why? the very qualities we loved about Harry are now caught up in teen angst. Is the next volume going to be about his sexual escapades?She is trying to keep up with her aging audience, but in doing so, she is losing the new one, and the world of wonder."
316785,1,A Short History of Nearly Everything,Very disappointed in the quality of the book as I had seen a friend's copy which was a much superior version with many photographs and drawings. Also much better quality paper.
316786,1,Deffective Disc,"While I enjoyed the content of this DVD, it ultimately turned out be defective. The disc froze and skipped in several places. It did this on both of my DVD players and in my computer. I returned it to Amazon.com and received a replacement. Unfortunately, the replacement did the same thing and in the same places. Maybe, when new stock arrives at Amazon, it will not contain these defects."
316856,1,Caroline's words,"I bought another book, anatomy lessons from the greaat masters by Robert Beverly Hale and Terence Coyle, which contains 100 great figure drawings analysis. Its printing is bigger and easier to read than Master Class in Figure Drawing,compiled and edited by Terence Coyle"
316874,1,And the underdog wins the race,"Jeff Bridges plays another role of the washed out middle aged man with no future. His character is a man with no profession, with series of mediocre sales jobs in a small city and unable to support his family. After his wife leaves him and re-marries to a rich guy, he tries to find a way to impress his young, teenage son.The story unfolds with the idea of making an amateur porn film in order to make it rich. His bar buddies pitch in minimal investment and the story takes off.So when the porn movie is no longer a porn movie but still a success to make everyone make some money, this film turns into its own head with a happy ending.When will be see Jeff Bridges in a film really worth seeing? That is what I want to know."
316907,1,OMG...,"This is an absolutely horrible show. It's dumb. Plus it's just another copy of The OC, Summerland, etc... Blah blah blah... It needs more CREATIVITY!! However, the cast is good...In such case i'll suggest u to watch Laguna Beach.. where everything it's kind of REAL!"
316953,1,Abysmal book - a complete rip-off,"There is absolutely nothing of value in this book. Kevin Trudeau is a crook who hypes this book in his infomercials. Truth of the matter is that the title is completely deceptive - there is not a single cure or suggestion for anything in the entire book. To summarize the entire book: basically Kevin Trudeau babbles about how the Government is out to get him and they are protecting the pharmaceutical industry. Whereas the later may be true if the former is true, then kudos to the Government - they ought to lock up this charlatan."
316973,1,Buyer Beware,"This Book Sells Snake Oil... Kevin Trudeau sells this book on an infomercial, and then the book sells the website. There is no real information in this book; it refers you to his website which you have to pay to join. Kevin Trudeau is not even a college graduate. His claims are largely bogus. For example; go and get fifteen colonics in a months time. Colonics cost about $70 each, so that is $1050 for the month. I don't know about you, but that seems like a stupid and dangerous endeavor. Take my advice... don't buy his books. He is a billionaire because he is so good at selling these scams. It's embarassing that I fell for another one... Never again."
316979,1,He should be ashamed,"Perused this in the bookstore on a lark. There are two primary problems with this book:a) The book is primarily an advertisement for his website, where you can get the ""real"" information, for only $400.00b) There is a genuine risk that people will die or otherwise suffer harm by being misled into avoiding genuine treatments for afflictions."
317001,1,FOR THE LOVE OF MAONEY,"Mr. Trudeau is obviously promoting his book for one reason, ""FOR THE LOVE OF MONEY"". Nothing wrong with that, except for the fact he is putting down others in his book for the very same reason. A little 2-faced in my opinion. There might be some truth behind his thoughts, yet not to the extent that he states them to be. If he is so against these people and since he is (in his words), ""so mad he's not going to take it anymore"", then why is he trying to suck others into his pay website. Another money making ploy. So sad!"
317039,1,"Good product, bad reliability and support","I purchased this product around a year and a half ago. It worked great, as described by other reviewers, with a fairly accurate step count, good upload capability, and many more features than I ever needed.However, the initial unit died within the first 6 months, and the warranty replacement died at about one and a half years. At this point SportBrain is saying since it only has a 1 year limited warranty they won't repair it, replace it, nor sell me a refurbished unit at a discount.If you are happy with having to replace it every year or two its a good product, but I expect a bit more longevity out of my purchases."
317108,1,very disappointed!!,"I wanted yellowcard to come back with a top quality album like ocean avenue, instead you have a boring, plain record like this that is so underproduced, they shouldnt have bothered!! This album just sounds bad! sorry, but it does! whereas 'ocean avenue' had a quality sound to all their songs, and they were exciting, this is just boring...a disappointment."
317126,1,Durability,This product appears to be poorly constructed. Did not have the product in use for even a couple of weeks when one of the seams in the main inflatable ripped wide open rendering the product unusable. Too bad. The children really enjoyed this product.
317199,1,WARNING!,"I purchased this toy for a young cat. One day I heard a commotion and went to investigate. The cat had her head stuck in the bottom curved open slot! She could not extricate her head and panicked. Although I was able to help her, it wasn't easy and was a scary experience. I don't know what would have happened if I hadn't been home. I notified the companhy that there should be a warning on the packaging that this item is not safe for kittens or young cats. I also threw out the toy because I didn't want to give it away and jeopardize another cat. Needless to say,this is not a product I would recommend."
317246,1,Where Did Our Ross Go?,"When I buy a Diana Ross CD, I expect to hear Diana Ross. Not Diana Ross & the Supremes or The Supremes after Diana Ross after leaving the Supremes. Especially since only Diana's photo is on the cover.Track 1-19 is Diana Ross & The Supremes Track 37-42 is the Supremes after Diana Ross left the Supremes. So really only Track 20-36 is Diana Ross, 17 songs. Now really Universal Records someone there is not doing their homework.You should hire me, I know I could do a better job with the entire Motown Catalog. In fact I have suggested songs that you have included recently. Case in point ""To Love Again"" ""Never Say I Don't Love You"" ""You Were The One"" and others."
317402,1,Wrong choice of repertoire,"I'm afraid Jane Eaglen has chosen the wrong repertoire for herself. There's no doubt that her vocal production is quite beautiful, although her tone is unremarkable and her top range isn't that brilliant. However, her voice often sounds unwieldy and out of sorts in Bellini. Such monotonous delivery and laboured florid runs just won't do. In Wagner, her voice is also not too expressive and there's not sufficient variety in expression. All in all, a dull album with unimaginative, and at times unidiomatic, singing."
317409,1,Too Short!!,"At ~10-3/4"" height from base to mount when extended, this is too short for both my 26"" cruiser and mountain bikes. This stand may be fine for a 24"" wheeled bike, but without spacers, this one allows bike to wobble to one leg or the other. The standing height of this unit should be disclosed in the description!!!! For that...ONE star, because there are no negative stars to give for this negligence. Now I either have to return it or purchase material and work an hour on an appropriate spacer.I already have a $19 one from WallyWorld and at ~12"" mount-height, it fits great with enough space under a wheel to remove it or work on it. I'm surprised the height problem wasn't mentioned before. I probably should have purchased the ""M-Wave Steel Double Leg Side Bicycle Kickstand"" here instead. I only bought this one after reading the reviews here."
317463,1,Not necessarily for non-Ligeti fans,Contrary to another review on this page this music is definitely a special interest item. Preview the music before you buy it. The missing three stars are for my lack of interest in the music. The performances are all top-notch. The quality of the recording is very good. Two stars for the performaces and the sound.
317474,1,Great Book,It's a great book. All my friends and I use it. I would recommend it to all my yentas out there. It's 5x the size of anything else.
317477,1,Insufficient power for a 12 gallon aquarium.,"I ordered this heater for a 12 gallon aquarium in my office, which is located in our walkout basement. In the winter, this is a colder room, low to mid 60s. The 25W heater simply could not get my 12 gallon tank to 80 degF; the best it could manage was 74 degF, and this was only when I had warmed my office with a space heater. I ended up having to take the whole aquarium apart again to replace it with the 50W substrate heater, which now keeps my aquarium at the desired 80 degF. So I would recommend to use the next largest power rating up from what Hydor recommends, especially if your aquarium is located in a colder room. You don't want to have to take your aquarium apart again to replace the heater.Note the low rating is for the bad recommendation on tank size from Hydor. Once installed so that they have enough power to heat, these are great."
317486,1,stunned by the good reviews,"I didn't make it all the way through the movie so I can't comment on last 20 minutes. It's hard to imagine that the end of this movie could have rescued everything that came before. I felt that I had no real connection or affection for any of the characters, particularly Barney, who was desperately self-absorbed. It was impossible to believe that 3 beautiful women would fall for this guy, not only because of his dreadful personality but because he is SO physically unattractive. Aside from really disliking the characters and wondering what the plot was, I thought the pacing was excruciating. After a while I went to the bathroom and just never came back. Did I see the same movie as the 5 star reviewers?"
317515,1,don't be fooled by color cover. absurd product deception.,"although this book is 379 pages, weighs five pounds and has almost 2000 photographs there is not a single color photo between the covers. how could any serious writer or publisher charge almost 100 dollars and not have one nice glossy photo of the 20th century's greatest artwork. i might as well buy the color blind version of the color wheel the next time i paint my house or the out of focus print of Citizen Kane. buyer beware!!bpm.2012."
317566,1,LCD problems,"LCD date display only shows partial numbers, so I can't program the date. LCD time display only shows partial numbers, so I can't program the time. After taking my blood pressure, the systolic LCD display does not show up at all. Diastolic and pulse LCD displays only show partial numbers, so I can't read it. Can't vouch for the accuracy of the product because I CAN'T READ THE OUTPUT! Mabis requires me to send them $5 if I send them the product for replacement/repair. Other reviewers with similar complaints indicate lack of response from the company. jeez."
317577,1,Very dissapointed,"I bought this on the rave reviews here at Amazon. I really like the look and feel of the Thermos, and it kept my coffee warm for hours. However it has a tendency to leak when drinking from it, at the connection where the screw-on lid meets the mug. The result is a mess and possible coffee on your shirt."
317583,1,It LEAKS!! Look at 1-star reviews,"Two things you need to know about this product. #1, it will keep your beverage hot/cold for hours. No question. #2, it leaks like crazy. I bought one of these a while ago, and when it started leaking I thought it was only my product, but then my coworker bought one (independently), and her's started leaking as well, in the exact same way. I'm convinced this is some kind of defect. Look at the 1-star reviews for people who have had a similar experience."
317614,1,Everyone knows that stones can't talk...,"Poetry is poetry and prose is prose. In my opinion, the extent to which they are mixed is the extent to which the quality of each, with some exceptions, deteriorates. The problem I have with Dillard's writing is that she so freely mixes the two that one is left with either pretty, but obscure prose or overly structured narrative poetry. The problem isn't that Dillard is a poor writer, its rather that she doesn't have a clear vision of what her artful constructions mean. The book is all wings and no roots. It ends up being an excersise in sophistry that, one feels, sweeps the author along in its grand illusions as readily as it does the sensitive reader. I almost feel guilty pointing out the emptiness of it all."
317664,1,"great sound, bad design","these headphones have great bass and sound quality. . .but bad quality of design. after several weeks, the earphones kept coming off the headband and i've been using tape to secure it in place now. i didn't drop them or throw them around, this just happened from normal wear and taking it in and out of the soft carrying case. plus the cord covering isn't durable since i already have a few nicks and areas where the wires are exposed. if you plan to put your headphones thru alot of use, don't get these."
317672,1,Awful,"The condition of the item was really really bad. The cap for battery and the cover were missing, and the seller didn't mention anything about it. I would not recommend this seller to any one."
317710,1,No information,This seller does not list what size sheet set this is and if it is one ply or two plys. How can anyone purchase this?
317712,1,Unreliable: Stuttering Audio,"As a radio broadcaster, I've had to dump this unreliable product. In XP, on a 1.99 GHz laptop with a gig of memory, Transit's recordings are frequently flawed by stuttering and what sounds like the product's inability to keep up while writing line input content.Sections of a recording will skip madly, missing bytes, then clear up. Other times, the recordings are damaged to the end of the file, the unit cannot recover -- even through periods of silence. Capturing live content where no retakes are possible is a complete gamble.I can only assume this is a fatal hardware flaw. Nothing on M-Audio's web site addresses the issue ehich others have mentioned here, and an hour on hold for each attempt to talk to tech support uses up any cost-effective attempt at a solution. We've thoroughly field-tested the M-Audio Transit, and it's failed."
317737,1,Dimensions,"I have not purchased this item, but where is the dimensions? I have looked all over and see no where to ask seller question and previous reviews show item was smaller than appeared in picture. The description does not provide any dimensions for this blade. Unexceptable."
317767,1,"Stool is fine, Casters are rubbish","Got this a few months ago. It lasted 2 days. After a day of use on a thinly carpeted floor (commercial carpet, no plush here), 2 different casters snapped making the chair unusable. Item returned."
317782,1,Great character; terrible toy,"My 2.75 year old loves Mater! However, he has had two of these, and BOTH had their front wheels fall off within an hour of play.Terrific character, but a terrible toy.Sorry, Pixar--but you licensed this toy to the wrong manufacturer.So much for branding, huh."
317892,1,bunk,"Don't waste your time with this book. For 170 years now there hasn't been a scintilla of evidence found which substantiates any LDS claim that Christ visited the Americas or that any of the Book of Mormon peoples, cities, histories, etc ever happened or ever existed---except when it is being argued by LDS scholars. Please, please, will any Mormon please recommend even a single book, written by a non-Mormon archeologist or historian, which corroborates ANY Mormon claims concerning the pre-Columbian New World?"
317895,1,Software was returned,The software description was not explicit as to which MAC platform it would work on. My Power PC MAC will not run the software so it was returned to Amazon.
317908,1,fail,"I ordered this product twice. It says it comes in 2 oz spray form each time I have received this product it is the swab. FALSE Advertisement, very frustrating."
317946,1,Avoid this book like the plague,"This is a terrible book and is definitely NOT worth the money being asked. The author does NOT teach you how to paint or draw horses. She does quite a bit with equine anatomy and a history of the art form and the actual supplies needed to paint or draw in various mediums.On drawing the horses she has about 4 pages of information and there is absolutely nothing on the painting. No discussions of the colors needed for chestnuts, bays, palaminos etc. No discussion of the best way to produce a dapple grey, or the colors needed for the hoof or eye.Walter Foster library has a better book on painting horses which actually contains some painting demonstrations. This book contains only ONE painting demonstration and that is a pretty poor one at that.If you want to learn to draw horses go and get used books by Walter Foster or Sam Savitt -- you will never learn to draw from this book.END"
317958,1,Not what I expected.,"I was looking for a book that would truly help me ""understand"" my baby, however, this wasn't the book. This book was fun in the sense that it had intersting facts and pictures, but it was much more of a coffee table book that a reference book. Choose a ""What to Expect"" book or a Dr. Sears book if you are looking for USEFUL information!!"
317972,1,Ashamed I read this book,"I picked up this book because I wanted to know what the big deal was about. There was the television show and assumed there would be some redeeming value to this book. I was terribly wrong.The biggest problem I had was the characters. This book was filled with shallow stereo types who were only interested in sex, drugs, and alcohol. All these issues combined with bulimia served no purpose to add anything to the nonexistent plot. And any advantage gained from the above topics became old and repetitious. When you got to the end of the book, it was clear there would be a sequel.I felt as if the book was written haphazardly in the same way the characters were portrayed. If you like the show, then I guess you already read it. For those looking into starting the series. Please don't. There are so many Young Literature that is fascinating and thoughtful.Don't waste your time or money."
318000,1,"Don't waste your money, unless you only love Country","Did not meet my expectations! If samples were available for listening, I would never have bought this album."
318052,1,"a good book, until...","I'm a fan of Baldacci's books. This one is a real page turner and you spend a good moment, until you arrive after de 2/3 of the book. Then you realize something is wrong with the story, that is a bit artificial... This feeling is confirmed by one of the most ridiculous ""end-revelation-solution"" that I have read in my life. I told myself: ""He's kidding""... But no, Baldacci is not kidding."
318056,1,Must buy? NO!,All I can say is this book left me scratching my head in wonder. What happened to the killer books Baldacci previously wrote? No plot and a lame group of characters.
318202,1,Somewhat catchy but overwhelmingly redundant,"I decided to give this album a chance based on several glowing reviews, but after a few listens, I can honestly say that I don't get the appeal of if. There are a couple of tracks that have mildly catchy hooks, but overall, the instrumentation is repetitive and the lyrics are sophomoric. I'm not sure if the reviewers that fawned over this had not heard a solid melody in a few years, but ""Popularity"" is largely forgettable.Sure, I like to support the smaller fish just as much as the next guy, but for those that are looking for a good ""dance rock"" album that you'll actually remember listening to the next day, I'd suggest buying one of the Killers albums or the Brothers Martin album instead of this."
318219,1,Worst Purchase Ever,"These are the cheapest flimsey things I have ever purchased! Used once, forgot where I put them, and it's not even worth the time to look for them. Just about anything would be better, even just gloves."
318273,1,Light weight,"This mitt is adequate for shaking or quickly moving metal items around on the grill. Don't try to take a hot pan or skewer more than about ten feet, or it will burn your hand through the material."
318312,1,Offensive,"If you are like me and love Hellboy, avoid this at all costs. The only two harmless and humorous stories are by Mignola himself and are quite good. They may make this worthwhile for a completist. However, the rest is complete filth and definitely X-rated. This book is rife with scenes of rape, molestation, excremet eating, and Adolf Hitler as a pal all played for laughs. I felt dirty just for reading it. Absolutely NOT in the true vein of mignola's ""Hellboy."""
318454,1,"Great actors, but not up to the series","I agree with much already posted, here. I am an admitted fan of shows up to about 1980. After that, studios may have continued using film, but they began editing on super vhs tape. Also, and due to this and to save money, film copies were no longer sent to affiliates for broadcast. Super VHS tapes were. In short, these reunions, like so many other reunions and shows post the mid 80's, don't ""look"" as good or rich as the original ones. I also felt that they made Rockford too cranky, and less like the easy-going, likeable guy he was in early seasons. Finally, many a good Rockford's did not rely on fist fights. They didn't need them in these movies, as Garner's health made such fights seem implausible. I make all of these comments as a true fan of the original series, and of Garner and Margolin."
318470,1,Apariencia vs Calidad,"Cuando ves estos guantes piensas en comodidad y versatilidad para hacer los levantamientos de pesas, pero lo que tambien tienes en mente es que son de cierta calidad. Lamentablemente al 3er dia de uso ya tenia uno de los sugetadores de las muñecas roto. No lo puedo creer, y eso, que soy principiante y no levanto casi nada de peso.Decepcionado"
318515,1,NOT WORTH IT,"This is one of the lowest quality products I've seen in a long time -- the plastic is flimsier than most food packaging. I also find it completely misleading that it's not made clear that the cost of the tadpoles is not included, and that they in fact cost twice again the price of the aquarium. We're returning this product, so I can't address how educational or fun it is once the tadpoles arrive, though it was not fun for my daughter to be excited to get it and then so disappointed. There has to be a better way to watch tadpoles grow than through this product."
318601,1,sarong review,"Liked the overall look of this sarong. Beautiful beading and sequins, however, When I opened my package, there was a large waterspot in the center and a smaller stain of some kind on it as well. I had it drycleaned and the water spot came out but the smaller stain didn't. Also, wished it came with instructions on how to use it."
318633,1,extremism-r-us,"This review is meant to reinforce R.W. Rasband's: unless you're a member of the extreme right-wing of the Roman Catholic Church, this book's not for you (and not what it appears to be)."
318724,1,Poor coordination,It was very difficult to follow along in the book while listening to the CDs. The activities often times did not match what was shown in the book at all. This was very frustrating! The book could have done a much better job at explaining what you were hearing on the CD.
318775,1,Rip off,I expected to get brand new markers in unused condition but what I received were markers that *looked* new.I used them once and capped them... I came back to use them the next day (the red and black markers) and the ink looked more like grey and light red... I wanted high quality markers which is why I came to the original brand... Disappointment.
318866,1,Boring and annoying,"You will be wondering why it is called elephant: Let me explain why, because it is slow and stupid! The majority of the movie is a camera (very low budget camera I might add) over the shoulder following each student through a very large high school building. THAT'S IT, THAT'S THE WHOLE MOVIE. If you enjoy watching someone walk, then maybe you will like this, I' not exaggerating either, Oe of the kids walks from one end of the building to the other in a scene that last for more than 10 minutes. Then when that seen finishes, your right behind another student, and same thing. You will not grow attached to the characters at all. This movie was such a great concept, and they had to crap it up. They could have elaborated way more on the students, the bulling and their lifestyles. This is grade A defecation. To top it off, the ending has no resolution, it leaves you hanging with unresolved issues. OH and the gore was limited"
318929,1,Confusing,"I'm not an aerobics instructor or a super step master but I usually don't have a problem following steps. This video, however, is just confusing. I feel like I get my workout from jumping around trying to figure out what they're doing instead of doing the steps. I'm sure these cues are universal but half the names she calls the steps don't seem to relate to the step at all so it doesn't help me remember what the step is. Plus, there isn't enough repetition of the step for me to see what they're doing to get it down, especially when the camera is roaming around at all different angles. I can't see when it does that! This video transitions to different steps WAY too quickly and the camera doesn't stay on the lead for the 2 seconds she's doing that particular step so it's hard to pick up the move. I feel like I'm repeating myself now but I'm getting frustrated with this video."
318981,1,Bosch/Skil charger problems,"The charger failed and ruined the battery. Replaced the charger and battery and the replacement charger failed. Bosch did a recall on the 14V model due to the charger, but I have not seen a recall for the 12V model although there must be a similar issue."
319057,1,minimalist techno,"I heard this album on a listening bay in a local record shop and was impressed not only with how it sounded, but that it was one of the few albums which actually showed someone layering tracks up to four deep (usually three at a time).Sometime later when I bought it, it seemed like maybe I'd heard another album. This is basically 60 minutes of beats. To me, this makes the mixing less impressive, as its fairly easy to mix rhythms. It really needs someone to put something on top of it.Having said that it really is done extremely well. But if you hate drum solos, this is not the album for you."
319166,1,A little disappointed.,"After reading the unsuitable wife , I bought Unsuitable husband. The unsuitable wife was clean cut and more interesting. I think we should know if the book has R rated parts in it. I usually stop reading at those point of the book but decided to see how much of the book was like that. I can't believe either that she was that naive . I like to read for pure joy. Not a prude, but choose to read clean cut romance. To each there own. Just want to know ahead of time."
319312,1,horribly disappointing,"I wanted to like this book. I really did. People I know, whose opinions I respect, liked it, it was well reviewed, etc. etc. But I hated it. I found the writing style pompous and affected. Donna Tartt obviously has some writing talent, but seems to not know what to do with it, like a singer with great pipes who can't resist the urge to wail on every note. The college setting rang utterly false, more like a preppy cliche of what college students do. My biggest problem was with the characters -- I just didn't care about any of them or about what happened to them. They were obnoxious, unsympathetic, and ultimately uninteresting."
319327,1,Poor Editing,"This series has some decent plot ideas and good acting by the cast. The director and especially the editor is the problem. There's non-stop background music, which is okay at the start of a scene, but the darn stuff never stops. After a while you want to yell ""Cut that darn stuff out. For pete's sake.""The feeling I got is that the writer, the director, and the editor, all, don't trust the viewers' intelligence and in addition don't have confidence in their story line. Why else would they supply continuous distraction? The experience was so frustrating that I couldn't stand watching more than one episode, and a half of a second episode. What a pity that such an excellent cast and production values have had to go to waste."
319405,1,Disappointing,"The so called 5.1 is terrible. I could not hear any vocals. I had to play it on regular two channel stereo for it sound descent at all. The special effects in between songs were cheesy. The band can still jam, but the DVD was poorly mixed. I's rather just listen to one of their CDs."
319414,1,Victor Borge's Funiest Moments,I was disappointed. I remember Victor Borge on television as being very funny. This video didn't show him the way I remembered. I won't order any more Victor Borge videos.
319473,1,What's with the BEEPS?!,"Wow, what a lousy CD player! I don't know about the sound quality coming out of the headphones, but the noise coming out of this unit through the cassett adaptor is unacceptable. What's even worse, if you were to change tracks or pause, there's a SCREECHING loud BEEPING noise. What's with that?! Stay away from this one folks."
319494,1,Not what I thought,"To say I was distraught after reading this book is an understatement. The first 34 pages (the prologue) remains between it's hard covers on my book shelf. The remaining 270+ pages have been removed. If you are looking for an all too graphic, albeit tragic, gay love story, this is the book to buy. If you are looking for insights into a ""Dark Night of the Soul"" experience as I was, you will likely not find it here. Even the worthy message of caution against following false gurus was lost in this non-spiritual story. Harvey is mixing two issues here, sexuality (in this case - gay rights) and spirituality, in a manner that was very disappointing to me. I would like to think that the true path is a bit more important than what Harvey has made it here. I think he knows that too. I now know better than to buy any of his other books."
319513,1,Too many characters,The Book Club had too many characters and didn't stop to identify with all of them. I felt that the characters fell flat and I didn't learn to identify with any of them or really care about what happened to them. I was really hoping to enjoy this book.
319559,1,"com""YULE""ation Cleric : Looks Could Be Deceiving","Well packaged winterlude mood music you'd expect to hear in a quiant nautical or antique tourist trap shop.

319602,1,Fuzzy image,Definitely magnifies as per advertised but the image was too fuzzy to make out. I have better distance vision without the binoc. Had to send back.
319635,1,zzzzzzzz,"The production is good and everything, but the songwriting seems a little amateurish, too typical of the standard Garbage-influenced, female-singer, heavy guitar bands that are all over the place. Also, their press release makes a big deal about Mary Cushman's voice, but it's not like it's mind-blowing or anything. She has a good voice, but overall, there's just very little personality here. They may get better with time, who knows."
319636,1,DO NOT BUY,I ordered these XLR cables mainly because of the price (lesson hard learned not to do that again). The cables were shipped promptly and arrived on time. When they were used at an event none of them worked. We took the cables apart to troubleshoot and instead of 2 wires and a shield (as an XLR cable should have) there were just 2 wires and then a soldered connection between two of the pins on the XLR connectors.When contacted the company did not respond and Amazon had to step in and make the situation right (which much to their credit they did very quickly and to my satisfaction).Do not buy these cables or any product from this company.
319662,1,Worst movie i've ever seen..this was bad..very bad,"What a waste of perfectly good film,time,money and my 117 minutes; this THINg has no plot, no storyline worthy of note, a script that MUST have been written by someone who wrote their first class play a few days previously and probably got a failing grade for it.This movie was utter garbage ...the ending was rushed and I seriously didn't know it was the ending when i saw it.Oh dear..this was bad..very bad"
319693,1,Ripoff,Troopers 1 is good but 2 and 3 are incredibly cheap productions using old scenes from the first episode. The editing and story are second rate. Don't waste your money.
319722,1,For One Hundred Dollars it should be half way assembled!,"I just purchased this item from Babies R Us today. I asked the salesperson if it was difficult to assemble, he said not really...well he lied through his teeth!I have bought and assembled more baby products than the normal consumer and this one is a definate challenge!! After working on it for over an hour I've decided to return it and get another model. I don't think it's worth the effort.The seat on the saucer has very little padding and it doesn't look at all comfortable for a little child. Very dissappointed in this product, the picture on the box looked fabulous!"
319854,1,"""Once you put it down, you can't pick it up."" M. Twain","A strange, solipsistic tale of a very sickly black man visiting Africa. Nothing momentous or sufficiently memorable occurs during the course of this story. It is painful, at best, to read"
319855,1,useless info,I was expecting some kind of insight instead got all those background/history reports of women's role in society. The author stayin in France for a couple of year made her think she qualified to judge/report. The whole book is piled up useless statistics and old info.
320080,1,cheap copper,"This ice bucket is NOT solid. The box has the word ""solid"" covered with a sticker that states ""decor"" copper. Essentially the description is misleading and incorrect. Anyone who was lucky enough to get solid copper was just that . . . lucky. This ice bucket is just cheap looking. The brass know looks substantial but that is about it. bought it for a wedding gift, but am too ashamed to give it."
320133,1,Math Skills,"I bought the DVD because the reviews were good but was disappointed. The students thought it was ""boring"". The speaker did just that, speak. He drew diagrams on a whiteboard and they were not as clear as they should have been. The DVD is informative but not exciting."
320206,1,Clearly Politically Motivated,"As usual some italians never miss a chance to complain and bash about things they either don't have or don't understand. Clearly the author has been living in the stone age far too long. What does he mean with ""How many people have actually ever bought an airline ticket over the internet?"". Probably every single person I know! Or ""How many people have actually ever sent data over the internet?"". Practically the entire US population! His observations are not only shallow and over analyzed, most of them are just not accurate. Further, he fails to capture the true underlying issues embedded in the American way of life. The social and cultural issues that are ripping this country apart. A very poor analysis of non-issues that are, for the most part, just a result of his ignorance. His arrogance. Money NOT well spent I must say. P.S. I am an Italian living in the US."
320280,1,BAD reception & TERRIBLE sound quality,"The FM tuner is horrible. Most stations have static. If you move around you get more static. TOO MUCH STATIC. I got this for outdoor activities NOT sitting activites. The AM tuner is better than FM. TV tuner is decent, the weather tuner is horrible. Panasonic RF-SW50 has 10 times better reception than this JUNK. At first I thought it was Sony's short and thin headphone(it works as an antenna), I tried using 3 other headphones and the reception is still [terrible]!The SOUND QUALITY IS TERRIBLE. My mom's 10 year old Aiwa walkman got way better sound than this. This Sony SRF-M37V has the worst sound quality I've heard in my life. BR>Overall this radio is [no good], DON'T BUY IT!"
320294,1,Not useful,This had nothing I could use. The decorations were juvenile and the recipes could be obtained anywhere.
320307,1,could not connect,"Sorry, this guy's voice gave me the creeps. He sounds like a preacher. Who can meditate without the ability to respond positively to the leading voice."
320309,1,A few chuckles at first...then utter boredom,"This terrible movie starts out with a halfway decent premise and its trailer offers a few chuckles but that's where the fun ends. The acting is stiff and unnatural, the main character is utterly unlikeable, and the dialogue seems as if the actors are reading the script for the first time. The F word and raunchy humor are overused to the point where it all becomes repetitive, tedious, and boring. This is a hastily thrown together flop that repeatedly insults the audience with its utter lack of talent, and its poor quality script, acting, editing, characters, and story. A perfect example of why the entertainment industry is failing."
320404,1,Bad quality,"Don't buy this CD. On some cd players it sounds fine, but if you have a good-quality player you will very clearly hear someone breathing throughout the entire CD. I'm not the only reviewer who has noticed this."
320438,1,Got to be Fiction,This book has got to be fiction! It has no mention of donuts in the whole thing. Phat Phil can't live without donuts.
320469,1,Control issues,"I like the idea of a Diablo game in space but there's not a lot to love about this game. It all works OK, but not seamlessly. You use the PSP's stick to move around but you cannot easily direct your fire. You fire which ever way you are facing. It is all too awkward and drains the fun out of the game. It doesnt help that the camera is too close to see your enemies approaching so that you can plan an attack. Basically combat is more about you ""battling with the controls"" than ""battling the enemies."""
320505,1,Classic Junk,Shown with a list price of over 25 dollars and on sale for 2 dollars was too good to be true and like anything that is too good to be true it was not. This item is classic dollar store quality and perhaps worth the 2 dollars and not a penny more. I don't know why I cheeeped out to save a few dollars to plug my 300 dollar ipod into a 50 cent power socket but I did and I will chalk that one up to experience. I had this silly notion that if it was listed on Amazon there was some sort of quality/control/assurance. Oh well - live and learn. :-(
320535,1,The Opposite of Good is...,In the almost three years of having owned this phone it's only been solid 2 months. The answering machine function is reliable - hence the two stars. Motorola did send a (free) replacement battery which lasted as long as the first: 6 months. You'll get 30 seconds of use from your phone for every 30 minutes it's charged. (So make sure your phone calls are short so it doesn't cut you off)Look elsewhere.
320680,1,Neglectable,Gal Costa seems to have lost her direction in music due both to her repertoire choice and to her way of vocalizing. Such low keys for a singer who does not have low power is a crime. Inexpressive arrangements.
320701,1,Pretentious garbage,"You wanna get free, this is but one way people attempt to do so. I'm not saying their intentions to get free aren't noble and justified. This method is worthless as far as this film depicts. The people go to get free and instead they have this idiot pretending to be wise and leading them nowhere doing nothing constructive. Frankly, I see a lot more destruction going on. Constructs have a purpose, it's not always good and it's good to be aware of the ones you have in your life, but simply breaking them down doesn't make you who you truly are. The movie is a good way to fall into a trance and sleep."
320752,1,Not worhty,"the material is not good quality, hard on the ear, sound quality is not good. I do not recommend this product."
320758,1,This is NOT the blues king Peter Green!,"If you love the blues, stay away from this! This has been mistakenly linked to the name of Fleetwood Mac founder Peter Green. This is some other guy with the same name, not the blues genius. This is some sort of experimental techno junk, and any blues fan who buys it will regret having spent the money for ""music"" not even Yoko Ono would claim. I made the mistake. Don't let this happen to you."
320783,1,Very wrong cable modem,"It workED fine first month then it get slower and slower , sometimes I could only get 20 Kbp/s, turn it off and back on again, performance get much better for couple hours and then it slow down again. Faulty product! Downloading from the same website, my sister got 900Kbp/s , I got max 200 Kbp/s(after turn off and back on). Disapointed !!!"
320803,1,Disappointed,I was very disappointed with this Chest the drawer's when I open them they come out completely and it is very very small I was not able to use it as a cosmetic organizer.
320886,1,Interesting ... as a work of fiction.,"Anyone that has seriously studied these matters will recognize this book for what it is - an attempt to substitute sensational fiction for fact. It's disappointing when the desire for publication completely overrides any semblance of scholarship.It doesn't really matter who you are, but especially if you're new to the subject, do yourself a favor and don't waste your time on this one. Begin with something more authoritative and closer to the truth, like the New Testament in the Bible."
320917,1,Would give it 0 stars if available.,"Very poor documentation to use the player and the web site of Lexar does not support the unit. Do not buy this device, you will be sorry."
320956,1,"Warning, this product has Soy!","When I took this, I started getting stomach aches. I am allergic to soy, and there is no mention of soy on the list of ingredients here, however, it is listed on the bottle, which, I know, I should have read before I opened the bottle. Now, I am stuck with 176 tablets of a supplement that I cannot take. Please, Planetary Formulas, for the safety of your customers, list any potential allergens with your ingredients!"
321002,1,TWO Different DVDS,"I see that there are TWO different DVDS of this...both with the same Interviews and Interludes, but with different performances. One of earlier music and one of the later years? Has anyone else noticed this as well."
321028,1,hate this album,when i was younger this is my favorite album. Now I listened to it and think why do i use to like it.
321048,1,What a piece of junk!,"I guess you get what you pay for. This package does NOT burn DVDs; for that feature you must upgrade the s/w for an additional $50. The installation instructions and procedure for the USB driver and editing s/w are very poorly documented and are confusing (even for me, a long-time Windows developer). Windows (XP) requests you to reinstall the driver each time you plug in the dongle. And last but not least, the quality of the captured video is ABYSMAL (defeating the very point of owning this device). Do yourself a favor and DO NOT buy this!!!"
321066,1,Limited help and weak examples,The book has good introduction material the examples described in the book are bit old and some of the classes are deprecated. The book also needs an update to include newer features of JCE and JSSE. I hurried up to buy this book and then realized it is bit outdated. Now I have Core security patterns by chris steel which covers well on cryptography api and examples using j2se 5.0 and j2ee 1.4 as well.
321070,1,Stay Away,"I purchased this for my wife to begin her sewing escapade. She used it for a few times and it ended up breaking...unfortunately, when it broke, it was after the warranty was already expired. The repair shop wanted over $100.00 to fix it, so not even worth it. I'd buy something a bit higher up..."
321090,1,"Agree with 2-star reviewer, and here's my 2 cents:","The hero was just way too overpowering alpha-male; the heroine showed little or no sense in her dealings with him, his family, or in her own life. I give it one star because she did become a LITTLE less of a doormat during the story. But while reading a romance novel, one's primary feelings shouldn't be annoyance and frustration with the characters! This one made the donation book-bin at my library with all speed."
321146,1,"Broke, they wouldn't fix it","Shortly after I finally got it to work, it broke, with error messages. Archos didn't return emails, and I finally reached someone who said they wouldn't fix it under warranty. It was my fault, they said. I'd recommend you don't buy anything from Archos. What a waste of a lot of money!!!!!"
321204,1,Too bad I didn't read the user reviews first,"Like some others, I was expecting a high-def concert, with the soloist and orchestra featured in the video. To my surprise, I got what amounts to a cd with still landscape photos. Furthermore, my rather sophisticated sound system has so far only been able to elicit 2-channel stereo out of this disc. I already had half a dozen versions of Rachmaninov's Piano Concertos 2&3, and didn't need another. Likely my Vivaldi purchase will be the same. The product description should be up-front about the nature of this ""HD DVD"", which is little more than a cd."
321217,1,Was not fresh when I got it,These were hard and didn't taste good when I got them. And they are not eligible for return either. Was a waste of money.
321239,1,This arrived in a garbage bag!,"This item arrived with absolutely no packaging! There was an outer shipping box with the label, and inside was a white garbage bag filled with dog biscuits. No label with name/manufacturer, ingredients or expiration date. We are returning these immediately -- I don't trust any manufacturer or distributor that would package anything this way."
321285,1,B&D string line trimmer---a DON'T BUY,DON'T PURCHASE THIS TRIMMER!!This trimmer doesn't even deserve ONE STAR! I bought one 7 years ago and it lasted almost 6 years and was terrific (old model). Somehow B&D; managed to screw up the model and change the battery and it now works like CRAP. The battery lasts about 7-12 minutes. I cannot even get my small yard done in one day. I hate this thing. AND just yesterday the guard fell off and I cannot get it to stay back on so this piece of junk is going in the trash and I'll buy another brand. Black and Decker---you really screwed up.
321351,1,Don't Buy This For the Armoire,"This Barbie is very pretty but I didn't buy the playset for the Barbie. One of the doors on the Armoire always comes off when you try to open or close it (and is not easy to put back on). Also, the rod for the hangers was made slightly too short so that it doesn't actually stay up once you remove all the rubber bands holding everything in place in the package. I managed to superglue the rod in place but the hangers aren't big enough to hold any of Barbie's clothes (although they do work for Kelly items). The only good part is the drawer. It does open and has lots of space."
321386,1,"Not wireless, useless for laptops","The usb receiver has a WIRE attached to it. Useless for people with a laptop. No response from cust service yet, very slow."
321506,1,What a disappointment!,"I got this book expecting updated information, women specific, for the same great program that was in the original book. What I ended up with was a bunch of advice that basically allows women to continue to take it slow, make excuses and put off getting their butts up off of the couch. None of the women featured in the pictures followed this watered-down approach. They ALL got those fabulous results with the original Body for LIFE program by Bill Phillips. Save the money you'd spend on this, quit making excuses and jump in with both feet on the original program. Skip this hooey altogether, if you truly want that awe-inspiring body you've been dreaming of!"
321541,1,"this page has wrong info, do not order from this page","I made the mistake of ordering fromthis page and the product sent was the micromemo for larger video ipod not the 2g nano. The page title and product id do not correspond and amazon has yet to fix it. I ordered again, the correct product on the page with the proper picture, make sure you do this if you are looking for the micromemo for 2g nano.I rate the error 1 star, but the product so far I would probably rate 3. Good size, works fine so far but haven't used enough to really know. However the speaker playback and headphone playback through it does not work. I called the company and they said this is the case because it is so small it can't fit it with a large speaker...."
321558,1,Please don't buy this book!,"This book was a waste of time and money. Although the self-proclaimed ""Mr. Stretch"" has his own stretching workshop, etc, this book is not based on professional advice. It is most catered to the simple person who thinks that simple stretching techniques will be of benefit (I tried several, and was disappointed). From an elementary level, I have studied stretching. This book has many stretches that don't do anything. Leading sports physiologists have indicated how to stretch propery. I will follow the advice of a leading physiologist before I follow the advice of ""Mr. Stretch"""
321615,1,Worthless,The battery stopped holding a charge even before I'd used up the string that came with the trimmer. I guess they could advertise that the line never needs replacing.
321620,1,Too much salt!,"Way too much salt...the only other thing I could taste over the salt was the whole wheat flour. The buckwheat flavor is totally overwhelmed, like eating salty whole wheat pancakes."
321649,1,The synopsis in the back is the entire book,"The book is fine, but it in the back is a boiled down synopsis, about 5 pages, that suffices for the entire book. The rest of the book doesn't really add that much. The material here is good, but is available by reading a few white papers and faq's on the web. I didn't dislike the book, I just wish I hadn't spent the money."
321696,1,Poetry To Remenber,"This Translation of one of the greatest works of world literature is not as good as the Robert Fagles translation, which I ratr Five star."
321733,1,Better PVC Collar - Ethical PlayStrong Dog Collar,"For anyone that's having a problem w/ these collars, like the basic design & security of a regular buckle collar yet waterproof - try out the Ethical PlayStrong Dog Collars.I actually JUST found them online trying to find a better deal on these. They come in fantastic colors/ designs & have all the great attributes of the rubberized PVC, but have the holes & buckles of traditional PLUS they're much cheaper! Avg. anywhere between $7-12 from small to larger sizes. They're really cool too. Sorry Fydo - there's a better product out there that I don't have to worry about fitting or falling apart!"
321839,1,Too graphic for me...,"While I am a heavy-duty Stephen King fan, I was disappointed with this book. I just read The Talisman about 2 years ago and it was a good read even though it was a bit dry here and there. I was very excited to hear about The Black House as it is the long awaited sequel to The Talisman. This story is also a bit dry in a good many places (Stephen King should stick to writing alone - the stories are always better). However, as the mother of a young daughter, I was shocked and horrified at the graphic detail in which a murder scene of a child is described. I can handle pretty much any murder and mayhem King can dish out when it involves adults. If it does involve a child, I know King can get the point across without describing it in such detail. That's just plain disturbing. I was very disappointed. I expect more from Stephen King and he usually delivers."
321842,1,"Boring story, overwrought reading",Every. line. is read. like the narrator. is. William Shatner. I struggled to get through two disks before I stuck the whole thing in my recycle bin. Really the worst book/disk I've ever purchased.
321953,1,Worst Civil War Miniseries Ever Made,"You can tell by the lousy acting that this was a ""made for television"" Civil War miniseries. The action sequences will remind you of the era of shows like the Dukes of Hazzard or Chips. The acting is terrible and the uniforms do not look authentic. Please do not buy this set without borrowing it from your local library first or you'll be disappointed. Now, good or bad a review is a review. These are opinions. Notice that everyone who liked the movie on this list of reviews got mostly a ""helpful"" comment on their review and those who didn't like it got a majority of ""unhelpful"" reviews. If a movie isn't worth watching or buying I'd like someone to tell me!"
321961,1,"Yes, it's a classic but......",I got this video for Christmas a couple of years ago and was sooooooo thrilled! BUT..... some of the best scenes were cut out! I have a hard time watching it now because I know what is missing. If you have never seen it before it will become a family favorite!
322056,1,"She is suing Clay Aiken and his mother, Faye Parker",She writes a book about Clay Aiken without his permission and then she has the audacity to sue him!!!! A person like this should not be supported with your dollars.Buy 'Learning to Sing' instead. Clay Aiken wrote that one.
322072,1,Not so good.,"INSTEAD OF SHOWING SOME OF THE CHINESE PEOPLE WHO HAVE GONE TO AMERICA,THEY SHOULD HAVE GONE TO CHINA TO INTERVIEW CHINESE MASTERS.THERE ARE PLENTY OF STYLES IN CHINA THAT THEY CAN SHOW BUT NOT.DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS DVD.YOU WON'T FIND SO MUCH INFORMATION (EXCEPT IF YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING OF MARTIAL ARTS)"
322190,1,not even a B movie!,I couldn't even finish watching this movie! It is dubbed in english& not very well! Don't buy unless u like wasting money!
322200,1,friday the 13th part 3 in 3d,"i just got my copy of this movie today, and the 3d is really bad, i dont no why they cant improve on the 3d going to dvd, iwas really excited to watch this movie again as i remember and the 3d effects cant get focused at all, if they took the time and redid this for dvd it could be a lot better, dvd version 2 stars, movie version 5 stars, come on paramount pictures do a better job, after all these years waiting for the 3d version you could have done much better than this, my last words are it is a waste of money to buy, stick with the 2d version much better"
322210,1,"Too Much Food, and Too Much Church","I managed to finish this book, but will definitely not read another one in this series. She's written a passable mystery, but I found too much emphasis on food and church. If you enjoy those two things, you would really love the whole series. The author is VERY knowledgeable about church affairs, and calls on that knowledge to write this series. the emphaszis on food is meant to bring humor into the book. But I don't find that mystery and humor mix very well. Also, I just could never come to like the main character (or any of the other charaters, either, and therefore, never really got pulled into caring about what happened in the books. I had really looked forward to reading one of the books in this series. This was the first one I came across. It was a disappointment for me personally."
322211,1,too churchy,It will have to be sent back to the kitchen for too much Episcopalian. This was the least fun of her books.
322285,1,Language is an obstacle,"The author might have a great and insightful thesis to present, but I'll never know. The language is so obfuscating, I feel like I'm reading a lab report on photosynthesis. Clearly this book is not for me or my kind: the layperson. Or I'm just an ignorant moron."
322338,1,not worth it,This is definatly not worth the money they sell it for. Though they were in great condition when I got them the product itself is very flimsy. These would be great for kids just learning the art but I would not recommend them for adults or tournament use as the light material makes technique look sloppy
322341,1,This angers me,"A few years ago i heard Blink 182, and i liked some of their songs... a few years later and i started to hate it. And then Box car racer came along... which was even worse, in fact i think i heard my 5 year old cousin listening to this.. Sad part is box car racer's singer has the same voice as my 5 year old cousin! I Feel so is one of the worst songs ive ever heard. There are hundreds of bands out there who deserve to be seen but only bands like this are shown cause it is 'mainstream'. We need to start acctually LISTENING to these bands.. anyone can tell Box Car Racer is horrible in both their music and lyrics."
322374,1,Disappointed,"I purchased this after reading the reviews, most were favorable. I think this would be OK in the city or suburbs where the lawns are maintained a little better. I live on a farm, this won't even trim the grass around my fences, but it isn't ""lawn"" grass it is thick stemmed and grows fast.It is lightweight and easy to handle, just not a good fit for me."
322382,1,A Walk on the Rich Side,"A fast read about the lives of the rich and famous of a former time. I believe many of the younger readers won't connect with either Ms. Vanderbilt or her lovers, but for the older folk it's a few hours of fun they might have missed out on."
322435,1,Not reliable,"I used this machine for a few months and I followed all the instructions. I even checked out some videos on youtube on the best way to use a rowing machine like this. The machine quickly began to degrade. There were areas of wear and rubbing all over the long bar, as well as metal shavings in the grooved area where the seat slides. I tried cleaning it and spraying it down with WD40, but that just dripped out and I had to clean my carpet. I'm under the recommended weight limit, so I don't think that it should have broken down that quickly.It was a nice workout before it started to break down though."
322512,1,Worst key entry ever!,"This calculator looks nice and has great functionalities no doubt, but it's the worst key entry experience I've ever had with any calculators! The keys are simply too hard and one would need to exert a lot more force down on each of the keys for the input to register. As such, like many have complained in the previous posts, this makes calculation extremely slow, not because the calculator itself is not able to perform the task, but to punching in all your numbers would simply take too long and too much effort, with the added risk of not being able to enter everything correctly because the key pad is just so damn hard to press!So frustrating! Why can't they just learn a thing or two from the casio fx series, once you've used those calculators you never want to touch another one again. Too bad casio doesn't make cfa approved calculators.I'm starting to really really hate using this calculator."
322518,1,incomplete nutrition values,"I was looking into buying this and noticed that in the nutrition facts, it doesn't mention the sugar content in a serving. Even for things that had brown rice syrup or blueberries there was no mention of sugar content. How can we make educated choices about food without that key nutrient value?"
322538,1,Ergonomic but low light output,"I am pretty disappointed with amount of light coming from this unit.Xeon bulb is a joke. Two built in LED lights are brighter and use 10 times less energy. Get a flash light with LEDs only - 9 of them, 21 of them and you will be able to see in the dark. :-)"
322546,1,Principal's New Clothes,"The Principal's New Clothes is a story I would not recommend. I purchased it with the idea of comparing and contrasting with the classic The Emperor's New Clothes. I was unable to do that because the story was so different. I would not buy this again because it did not meet my ideas and plans. However, the story on its own is cute."
322633,1,little too much going on here,I wasnt overly impressed with this book and thought it could have been simpler in the different cities that the alchemist visited. I found myself skimming thru at some points.
322667,1,Not my kind of history book.,"History books should be engrossing, thought provoking and colorful This book is dull and boring from the minute you open the front cover. I truly hope this is no longer assigned to any students anywhere."
322680,1,Dealing Creatively with Death,"There is wonderful information in this book, however, it is expressed ""dryly"". It was difficult reading due to the writer's style. Please don't take mine as the ""end all"" opinion. You know what they say about opinions...everybody's got one."
322739,1,amusing but not true to jane austen,"i will credit this film with being amusing and entertaining, but if you are looking for a film that is more true to jane austen's work, this adaption is definantly not the one... it was most dissapointing when it came time for mr. darcy and ms. elizabeth to meet by chance at pemberley, and the film continued without the encounter... it left out the one point that, to me, made pride and prejudice, pride and prejudice.. (the point that mr. darcy laid aside his pride to win the women he loved, and ms. elizabeth let go of her preconcieved prejudices to accept the love that she realized she deeply longed for) this was an enjoyable adaption but my advice would have to be to spend a few more dollars on either of the 1985 or 1996 versions and enjoy a storyline that follows pride and prejudice as it was written by jane austen"
322752,1,Not at all useful.,This book is basically a count from 1 to 100 of things (both could and bad) that people could possibly do after a break up. It's obviously meant to just be funny and not as an actual self-help book for people who have recently broken up. The sad part is that it is not actually that funny. This is one of the few books that I have bought during my lifetime that I returned.
322787,1,"I wanted to like this, but. . .","I wanted to like this book, but in the end I did not. From the beginning, it is clear that the author knows how to put one word in front of another. The problems are with the plot and the characters. There are too many seemingly gratuitous plot twists. For example, two of the main protagonists are the Champion, and the Moonsword. But at times during the book, the questions of who is the Champion, what is the Moonsword (and how is it made), have different answers. And, despite what we are led to believe for all but the last few pages of the book, did the Champion make the Moonsword? The most basic rule of a fantasy novel is that the author makes the rules of the universe he or she creates. The author cannot violate her own rules and expect the reader to feel entertainment rather than frustration (my reaction when I finished). This book could have been good, but it was not."
322825,1,You call this Versace?,"Terrible quality and like the 1st reviewer, it runs super small. I saw Versace and thought for $15.00, how bad could it be. BAD."
322866,1,what happened here?,I am a Liam Neesom fan but this film did him no justice.... Boring and did not keep me interested at all.... I understand the plot of the movie but didnt follow the events of it. I am happy I didnt pay alot of money to see this film.
322890,1,Cardio? Are they kidding me?,"I purchased this DVD looking for a fun, challenging work out. What I got instead was an annoyingly hard to follow dance number that didn't even make me break a sweat. I could have burned more calories cleaning my house.I am in my mid-twenties and hit the gym about three times a week for 45 minutes of cardio. I would rate my fitness level pretty average so I think for the average person, this DVD provides little to no cardio workout."
323001,1,Horrible translation - Don't purchase,"Saw this movie in the theater, thought it was the most wonderful movie I'd seen all year. Couldn't wait to purchase it. Saw it went on sale, purchased it, received it, popped it in the DVD player, and noticed that the subtitles were drastically different. This link provides a good comparison between the original wonderful translation and the piece of garbage that it was replaced with:http://iconsoffright.com/news/2009/03/let_the_wrong_subtitles_in_to.html"
323047,1,9 Failed Handsets In 3 Months,I replaced the previous version with this model in December - Since then 9 handsets have failed and had to be returned to Panasonic for repair. This is absolutely one of the worst phone systems I have ever had.
323053,1,"Bad, bad, really bad.","Words need not even be wasted on this product. Besides each character having a different voice than that in the movie, the audio effects are terrible, as well as the actors and script. The one good thing about this product is its availability is limited. Save your time, save your money. Don't let Lucas put his hand in your pocket."
323077,1,Hahahah! Funny Funny Funny,"I don't think anyone would actually buy this CD, and your probably just like me, wanting to see how bad people rip on this. Well first of all, there is no singing. Second of all no drums. Third of all It sounds nothing like them. You can kind of pick up the melody, but it's hard to know what song they are doing. This is absolutlely worthless. I might buy this CD if it was, like two dollars. And that's just so I can show all my friends how pathetic this is..."
323166,1,"Discountinued, cable broke twice and no replacements available","While the earphones are nice the cable has broken on me twice. The first time I went to the UE website and they were out of stock so I emailed them, and they sent me a free pair. That was nice however they smelled like a skunk sprayed them. That was fun cleaning it off.Now these replacement cables have broken and I'm left with $250 paperweights. This line has been canceled and I'm annoyed they don't have replacement parts for it.I will never buy another UE product again."
323368,1,Very disappointed,"I did a lot of research before placing this order and am very disappointed. Based on the good reviews and good price, I ordered two of these for the twins I'm expecting shortly. The box arrived today and I already know that this is going back. The quality of the fabric feels like something you'd purchase in a bargain bin of some yucky discount store. I guess you get what you pay for - I'm going to learn a lesson and pay more for better fabric in the future."
323379,1,Grandchild got bored quickly,"I had purchased this as a gift for 3 1/2 year old grandchild who loves Shrek. The plastic runner would wrinkle on my hard surfaced floor. This would interfere with the direction of the roll of the ball. With the set that I received, it was hard to understand what the character was saying (only one character spoke). It would seem entertaining only for a few minutes and after retrieving the ball several times, my grandchild was quickly bored with it."
323402,1,Parappa loses it's appeal,"I am a huge fan of the original. The songs were great, the gameplay smooth and challanging, and while it was short, I would always find myself coming back for more. Parappa 2 however, shares none of these qualities. It boasts no new songs worth praise, and horrible gameplay. I beat it without losing once in less than an hour. Another long awaited sequel that should have never been made. Very sad."
323404,1,"Por favor, escúchenlo a un volumen moderado si lo compran...","Tuve la mala fortuna de que una vecina adquirió este CD y al parecer le gusta muchísimo, ya que lo pone a un volúmen lo suficientemente alto como para que yo, quien vivo en otra casa, pueda escucharlo igual.Tras soportar involuntariamente más de un mes este álbum una y otra vez, creo que tengo autoridad suficiente para suplicarles que si alguien cree que ""Corazón Partío"" es una gran canción, (¡por favor!) se ponga audifonos. lo disfrutará igual y no torturará a los semejantes a quienes quizás sí les guste una canción donde exista armonía y donde la estrofa que escuchas tenga alguna relación con la anterior."
323487,1,Does not work with Mac,Waste of time and money. Quality ok price excellent for the footage. Previous reviews read that is why I purchased can't believe everything you read even this!
323489,1,staticky,There's always a ton of static on the screen when I used this cable. I had to replace it within a week. Total garbage.
323495,1,bunk,"All ready to watch a video from the laptop, plugged in the cable, nothing happened. After some jiggling, you could occasionally see the video, but never longer than a second. The item was clearly defective. It would cost more to return it, than it does just to junk it. Very disappointing."
323547,1,Did Kellerman write this?,"There are so many ludicrous and unbelievable aspects to this plot that it seems that this book might have been written as a joke. It displays none of the polish and continuity of the Alex Delaware novels. The coincidences are far too outlandish, the characters unbelievable. Definitely reads like a rush to a dealine. A great disappointment to this Kellerman fan."
323549,1,Think about spending a little more money,"Mine worked for 2 minutes after first receiving it, then it never worked again, so I returned it. The stylus is like a plastic tooth pick and I think this company was being just a little too ambitious thinking they could make an organizer this small and make it reliable. I decided to spend more money to buy a real PDA and splurged on the Handspring Visor Platinum. You might want to consider the same move."
323569,1,Not as durable as the original,I had the original teaser end for my Da Bird toy for at least 3 or 4 months before it kicked the bucket. It was used daily for rigorous play session and it was quite durable. Thick and stiff feathers stood up to my very rough and tumble cat who flips 2-3ft off the ground to catch the toy.I got this in the mail and within 3 uses the first feather teaser was completely destroyed. The feathers were very light weight and flexible and my cat really just ripped them to shreds and broke them in half. This is our absolute favorite interactive kitty toy and i'm sad these died so quickly.I'm quite disappointed in the quality of these. DEFINITELY not worth the price for 3 uses for each teaser end.
323610,1,"fails to be American, lacks diverse voices","After the 1997 collection, this one falls flat. A warning to women - male poets have you 2 1/2 to one in this series. With some exceptions, there is excessive intellectualism that fails to move; this is a glaring example of some of the ironies of poetry today (too emotional, honest = not good; too far reaching, nearly nonsensical = good). The poetry community should not wonder why it fails to reach a larger audience. The intelligent reader is there if the message is accessible. Poetry is a delight in its many incarnations; I only hope that the next one chooses more diversity, more voices, is more American in its soul."
323714,1,"Bostitch SB16-2.00-1M 2-Inch by 16 Gauge Bright Finish Nail (1,000 per Box)",one star is for the product when i received this nail is all broken include packing .they ship with envelope. I can't believe.
323772,1,"Defective product, overpriced shipping charges","I received this oven, used it twice only (and the first time it cooked way too slowly, before it went up in smoke the second time I used it). Obviously there is not much quality control at this company. I did not want another one. So I returned the item, paid for shipping the product back, and also was charged for their shipping charges to me. The shipping charges came to a total of $45.00 which came out of my pocket. They charged me $30 for shipping and I shipped it back for $15.00. For this $45.00, I got one poor use, and then it burned up, the whole house was filled with toxic smoke but it could been been even worse if I hadn't caught the burning oven in time.P.S. My old Flavorwave oven still works great after over three intensive years of use, works exactly the same way and was about half the price of the NuWave oven. I thought I was getting an upgrade by buying the Nuwave oven, but it just costs more to buy and is no better than the Flavorwave."
323810,1,Where is the Real R. Kelly,"My mistake, I must admit, was falling for the name of the cd TP3 Reloaded. Before my purchase I'm gearing up for a cd that's loaded with slow jams much like 12 Play(...). Boy was I wrong. Reggae, Reggaton and other fast tracks kill the mood of songs like ""Sex(Love is what we makin)"" & ""Touchin"". We already knew about ""Trapped in the closet"" & ""Sex in the Kitchen"" so there are no good slow jams other than the previous two I mentioned that really grab me but even those are not true R. Kelly classics. I'm giving him two stars only for his rep, (as a musician that is)."
323818,1,WOW,"this is like the worst cd ever created. i don't care how good the other songs are, all i need to listen to is the trapped in the closet. WHAT THE HELL IS HE TALKING ABOUT. Its such a stupid series of song, but hes not stopping at that, he's coming out with 6-10. This is not bad for laughs though, its frickin hilarious."
323859,1,Hate this book,"I remember being in first grade reading this, wow, what was my teacher thinking? This book gave me nightmares for years!! Not a kids book in any way"
323876,1,Too Bright!,"If you plan to use this in your bedroom and like your bedroom dark, this IS NOT the product for you. Besides the blinking ""new call"" light, the snooze button becomes a blinking disco light when the alarm goes off - and it blinks bright blue! The background of the clock is also blue and will cast a light in your bedroom that creates shadows. Hubby said it was worse than a nightlight. Returned it after two days of use at a net loss of $25 due to restocking fees, loss of shipping charges and having to pay to ship it back. Thumbs down to this product."
323929,1,An unfortunate purchase,"The CD is only compatible with PC's not MAC's. This was mentioned no where in the product details. So I have to run to the school labs to use this product. Further, the whole ""on-line"" resources were BS, half of the links don't work. The ""Lab Overview"" was all dead links. The CD is decent study material, but the product is overhyped."
323955,1,Not worth the money,"Hi Everyone,I recently got one of these from a concerned friend. She thought that it may work for me as it did not for her. I have several injuries ranging from knee arthritis to tendonitis and others. I tried this product on all of them and was very disappointed. I got some very mild relief from pain in my knee but my heating pad is much more effective for this. The actor they use as a professional spokesman seemed to me to be very trustworthy. I was very surprised to find out that this is nothing more than a glorified heathing pad. In fact as I said my heating pad works better. This product did not work for me or my friend. Please people do not waste your money. Buy a heating pad instead.Best Regards"
324110,1,Hardware crash three weeks from new!,"Three weeks after I bought the darn thing it crashed. I only installed Microsoft Office software. I'm working away on a project when bam! The Blue Screen of Death appears to inform me that Windows XP had to quit. Then a totally dark screen.Then the system starts back up, with a box offering to send an error report to Microsoft. I click it. Microsoft thinks for a minute then writes back: hardware failure. Either the memory, the power supply or the motherboard is defective. They're not sure which, but it's serious. The computer is obviously working for the moment, but unreliable.Now I'm stuck. I can replace the computer, but Microsoft won't let me load their software a second time. I'll have to shell out $hundreds again for software I just purchased.My opinion: I'm sorry I took a chance on this cheap computer. As someone once said, ""The anguish of low quality endures long after the thrill of low price is gone."""
324130,1,Another Piece of ...In the Marketplace,"A total piece of fiction from beginning to end. Any and every ""story"" is put together to try and build some case that the Nazi leadership had ""Jewish ancestry""--therefore, the Holocaust was an act of Jewish self-hatred. It is so laughable that respectable historians don't even review it. It is another piece of anti-Semitic propaganda masquerading as history. You don't like history? Make up your own! The sad thing is that some people, perhaps well intentioned, will see a book like this on a web site and think: ""well, somebody reviews such stuff before it is sold."" Well, that is not the case. Anyone can make up anything they want and get it published. The slightly clever falsiers of history, like this guy, invent sources--take things of context--play fast and loose with the truth---but give it a gloss that looks like what real historians do. It's not history. Just like a ""scientific looking"" argument that the earth is flat is not science."
324239,1,Casio Warranty Repairs,"I purchased the AQ160W-1BV as my first Casio to see how the watched performed. I really liked the features and look but after 6 months I noticed one of the buttons was missing. I guessed it would not be problem so I returned the watch with the receipt, but was informed the Warranty only covered the watch works and the buttons are considered part of the case. For only $40 they would be happy to fix the watch and send it back. This was my first and LAST Casio!Timex would fix any watch I have ever owned without questions so I will purchase a replacement from Timex. I am only glad the Casio was inexpensive so the loss was a learning experience that I will make sure everyone understands."
324316,1,Bad design & construction,"I bought the Bell Geltech Ultimate Comfort Bike seat cause the regular narrow saddles were painful to ride on. At first, the Bell Geltech was great... very comfortable. So I rode more and more and was enjoying my rides immensely. But this seat does not hold up over time. The gel pads should be better attached and covered up so they don't start splitting off and having the gel ooze out and stick to your backside. I don't know about you, but I don't care to replace a bike seat every six to nine months!! I returned this one and have another wide seat without the gel, harder, not as comfy, but nothing is sticky ""back there"" either. I'm currently searching through the reviews at Amazon on seats for one that is really comfy again, and DURABLE over time."
324332,1,Poor Statistics,"As I read through this book I kept asking myself, ""How is this possible? This guy is the Editor of 'The Economist'!"" His facts and figures are wildly inaccurate. And there are no notes in support of any of his numbers. There is no point worrying about his interpretations when he can't even get his stats straight. I am glad he is not an accountant. From now on I stick to American business magazines and my copy of the Wall Street Journal (with an occasional look at the London Financial Times)."
324364,1,what went wrong?,"It seemed like it would be a smashing album. But after a listen to it i felt i had been ripped off 17$. The mixing is slow dull and lets you fall asleep. Disc 2 is simply bad, the annoyingly sample filled carnival xiii hurts to listen too, With west on the 27th being the only highlight. This disc has parks in wilson is slow mellow form. Disc 1 is a little better. slightly faster. but still nothing impressive."
324446,1,"Horrible for hot, bottom vented laptops!","The plastic becomes pliable when it's hot and basically sucks right up to the vents on the bottom of your computer, even with the little rubber feet in place. It really blocks the heat alright.. blocks it from escaping the computer at all!"
324476,1,Waste of time.,"This Vanessa Hudgens thinks she can get by in the music industry with her so-called cuteness but sadly she can't sing, she has an annoying personality, and she can't milk the high school musical thing for much longer. It's sad when these fresh-faced young women think they have to act like little divas to get what they want, she has already embarrassed herself and her family with nude photos that were supposedly ""taken in private"", she demands that the studio give her more than 1 million to star in next high school musical sequel, give me a break! Let's just see her for what she is, a spoiled and inconsiderate little bratt, enough said."

324511,1,"All gristle, no meat","After reading several magazine reviews of this book I anticpated an intriguing, tell-all story from a culinary insider. Bourdain is an insider but his book is an unintersting mess of ""so what, who cares"" insights into the world of (oh boy, I'm impressed ... not) NY restaurants. He throws around chefs names like they mean something to anyone but restaurant reviewers, exhibits no depth of character (I took drugs, I'm bad, really bad, no, really), and is a sloppy, repetitive writer (how many times can he tell readers we should learn Spanish if we're really serious about running a restaurant, because the best cooks are of Latin American desent?). I heartily recommend passing on this book to anyone who desires an even remotely entertaining, insightful or interesting look at the food business. This book should never have been printed."
324515,1,sex and drugs in the kitchen,"I thought I was going to read some ""kitchen secrets"" rather than ""secrets"" that occurred in the kitchen.If I wanted to read about how a drug addict became famous, there are a lot more autobiographies I'd rather read about. Bourdain's arrogant behaviour and kitchen antics didn't impress me. The message I got was in order to be a successful chef, you have to use obscene language, have loose morals and do drugs. I'm a chef instructor in a culinary arts school in Europe.....is this what I'm supposed to be like to inspire my students????"
324581,1,"Nothing liked the first, and this bugged me","I liked her first album a lot better. I can still listen to it, some 7 years later. But this one? Nyah. I've listened to it several times, and it has never grabbed me. But others seemed to like it, so maybe I'm just missing something. My recommendation? If you can, borrow it before you buy it."
324610,1,never mind,"I am a big fan of M.Connelly but I was disappointed by this one to the extent that I did not finish it.First, there are practically no investigative elements in this book. Second, the book consists mostly of an endless series of pissing matches between everybody involved. Third, most of the actions/decisions seem either unmotivated or way too dumb.Never mind reading this one, it got its second star only because I had seen something worse."
324650,1,Completely useless,"If you're studying for the A+ Certification and you haven't traveled back in time to the year 2001, this is NOT the book for you. While I'm sure this was useful for whatever version of the A+ exam was being floated around in the pre-9/11 era, the information in this book is now completely obsolete. There's a reason this is (currently) available for 69 cents. When it comes to IT books, check the publishing dates.Drop some money on the newest edition of Mike Meyer's A+ Certification All-In-One Exam Guide. (You know, the ~1100 page one.) I just passed the 2006 version of the A+ yesterday using that book as almost my only study material."
324654,1,MARGARET IS TOO POLITICAL,I have read many of Margaret Truman's books and enjoyed some of them. This one is ok for light reading.......but don't believe we need her editorial on all theRepublicans in Washington. Adds nothing to the story by taking nasty little digsat them. She would do well to stick to mystery in these books and if she has a'beef' with the Republicans.......write a book about that. The two don't mix
324690,1,"works well, fits badly","I've used the envirosept filters before and they work well, but this one fits poorly - it is a full 1/2"" too small in both directions."
324717,1,the reviews are right!!!!!!,"I am a real fan of Tool but I never wanted to buy this DVD because it was unauthorized. I have some kind of sixth sense that tells me when a movie or a DVD is going to be bad and when I read the reviews, I knew that I was right. From what I know, this round piece of plastic that they call a DVD is just another way of someone trying to make money using other people's music. Reminds me of the guy who sold homemade copies of CDs at the flea market! Selling CDs when he has never played a ""/$%? music note in his life?? That is disgusting!"
324746,1,On my THIRD repair in two months,"I received this phone and was please mostly with the speakerphone function. It is a bit larger than comparable units because of that, but was worth it to me. HOWEVER, two weeks into owning the unit, it started reading incompatible charger every time I plugged in any charger. I took it in for service who was less than helpful, but eventually repaired it on-site only after I told them to cancel the service. It worked for about a week, then it restarted and I had to return to Amazon.com (which I must say was helpful service over the phone). Now, the replacement is doing the same thing along with turning itself off periodically. I am about to call to arrange return of this phone as well."
324754,1,Ending with a whimper,"The problem with Season 9 isn't the fact that the writers had run out of things to say. And it wasn't the addition of Agents Dogget (Robert Patrick) or Reyes (Annabeth Gish), both of whom tried to do their best with dodgy material. The real problem was the deadening presence of Scully (Gillian Anderson) and her story.Gillian Anderson didn't want to fulfill the last year of her contract. She was bored, and only stayed on because they threw some extra money at her. And it shows. She sleepwalks, with stony face and pursed lips, through all of her scenes. It doesn't help that her part mostly consists of whining, teary-eyed, about The Baby, until (blessedly) giving it up for adoption.The X-Files might have gone on for a few extra years if they had let Anderson go and let the new kids do their thing. It wouldn't have been very good, but it might not have been quite this bad."
324766,1,Good example how to make simple things complicated,This book is a good example how to make simple things complicated. It seems author don't have any pedagogical knowledge. Book also contains some serious logical errors.
324849,1,don't buy this product....unsafe,"My daughter recieved this as a Christmas present. She likes to play with it but it is limited on what it does. My biggest concern is it is not very stable. My daughter is 1 and she is just learning how to walk by holding on to things. She has fallen over it trying to get to something on the other side, or she has leaned on it and it has fallen over. She got a nasty bruise on her head from the leg after she leaned on it to hard and it fell over and bumped her head. I had to take the legs off so she could play with it without hurting herself"
324861,1,Does not fit 2003 Ford Explorer,"Unfortunately these lifts supports DO NOT fit the hood of a 2003 Ford Explorer XLT. The fitment is for pre-2001, the title and description of the hood lift is incorrect"
324872,1,Mistake to get this book,I bought this book and found atleast 12 problems wrong in the simple math problem... these were simple problems that if the editor would have looked through would have found. Some of the problems didn't even have the correct answer for a choice!!! Do not get this book!!!!
324947,1,Did not work on FreeBSD 7.2,I had hopes for this card: the reviews seem fine. But the FreeBSD 7.2 drivers loop and time out.
324949,1,AH - awful,"This is just the worst thing I've ever heard. Mr. Dyer literally makes VERY LOUD meditation sounds, completed with moist-mouth noises. I thought there would be more tips about meditation but instead he makes the AH and OM sounds for a VERY LONG time. His books are great but I certainly wouldn't suggest anyone else would waste their money on this CD."
325046,1,"I love the series, but this book dissappointed me","I love the Meredith Gentry series. I've read it several times. But I have no desire to reread Mistral's Kiss.Usually I can remember scenes vividly, but this book I can barely remember. Sholto was fascinating in the first book, but he bored me in Mistral's Kiss. Sholto's character development just didn't seem real. Even Mistral is boring in this book.I can't pin point what's wrong. But, nobody really did anything that seemed interesting to me. Big plot turns were done in 2 sentences.I'm not a big fan of sex scenes in general, but I like the supernatural parts of Laurell's sex scenes. I love the idea of metaphysical sex. So I was really surprised at my ""ho hum"" reaction to the supernatural sex scenes in Mistral's Kiss."
325263,1,Below Average,"This is a below average welding helmet for the price. Got it for some hobby welding. Where this helmet lacks are the adjustments for the headband. They are all plastic and of poor quality. I tried to tighten the knobs enough so the helmet would stay up over my head to prepare work, they be able to flip the helmet down with a shake of my head when ready to weld. Couldn't get this helmet to do that. One of the plastic knobs stripped and I had to super glue it. Considering if it's worth sending it back."
325272,1,Just Hype,I have not noticed a significant decrease in the appearance of cellulite on the front of my thighs. I only purhcased the product for that reason and I've been using it for approx a month and the bottle is almost empty and I don't think it's worth another try. I'll stick to the less expensive Nivea shaping cream!
325329,1,Lasted a day,"I used this card with a SanDisk ImageMate USB 2.0 reader/writer and a Palm Tungsten T3 (with the SD patch applied). After a day of use, the card was no longer recognized by the Palm or PC. I've returned the card. I'm going to try the equivalent Panasonic SD card."
325440,1,I already have multiple copies...,"I already have multiple copies of the Star Wars movies from VHS to LASERDISC to DVD. I for one am not going to buy this Bluray boxset. When I do purchase HD versions of the saga, it will have ALL the versions of each movie included.Close Encounters and Blade Runner Bluray boxsets, are perfect examples of what I'm hoping that Old George will finally give us in the end. After all, I'm sure we (the fans) have PAID the franchise enough in the past, to deserve only the BE$T!"
325441,1,Not anymore George,The only thing to look forward to with this release is that Red Letter Media might possibly do another Star Wars Plinkett review. I cancelled my pre-order after Lucasfilm released the changes made to the films in this set. Noooooooooooooo more George.
325509,1,"No, no and no.",Do the right thing George. Release the originals. Let the fans have a choice and decide. We'll be waiting. It will mean more money for you! We know you would love that!
325520,1,"Great resolution, terrible vision.",A painter doesn't go back to a masterpiece after thirty years and paint over it. A fisherman cannot recatch a trophy size fish and get twice the credit for it. Changing art after so long of a period of time is an attempt by George Lucas to appear to regain some of his brilliance--that is disgraceful.
325529,1,Just say NOOOO! Boycott this garbage!,"This is really quite sad to see Lucas continues to only listen to his own ego and think fixing things that aren't broken to be just so very important. Anyone who buys this is only reinforcing his delluded notions that what he is doing is right andc good for the franchise. From what I've seen, from what many fans have felt and stated quite vocally, this is not the case. Lucas isn't listening to our words however. There is only one thing that will get his attention, and that is money. Vote with your dollars - BOYCOTT IT!"
325531,1,Not now. Not ever.,"I will not support this abomination with my money. I will not pay to see one of my favorite childhood influences slowly destroyed and degraded by a deranged egomaniac just so I can see it on Blu-Ray. For me, the original theatrical trilogy (New Hope, Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi) is the Alpha and Omega of Star Wars. My wife feels the same way, which is partially why I chose to spend my life with her.My only hope at this point is that one day soon George Lucas will die, and be unable to do any more harm to his only contribution to history. After his demise, I look forward to the re-release of the untainted theatrical versions on whatever the newest technology is of the day."
325615,1,Price To Sell Out....14 Shades of SELLOUT,"Yeah as if you haven't noticed by now STAIND ARE HUGE SELLOUTS! What in the hell happened to their music? Christ, it seems like yesterday I was jammin to Dysfunction thinking to myself ""these guys are gonna kick ass forever.."" holy sh-t was I ever wrong. People this is not music this is radio-friendly whiney HORSESH-T. I can only honestly enjoy two songs of this and that would be ""Price to Play"" (and it's not really THAT good to begin with) and ""Fill Me Up"" (because my gf dedicates it to me and the song originally really touched me...you had to have been there) but this cd is seriously not worth your time. Go buy Dysfunction or Tormented (off their website only) and listen to some good stuff."
325702,1,Pablum,"This book is horribly superficial, and the writer shows a very clear failure to understand many of the themes in LOTR. This is not finding God in LOTR, but how to use LOTR as a blunt instrument in proselytizing for evangelical christianity; emphasis on ""blunt""."
325764,1,Disappointed,"Logitech USB Microphone. I'm sorry to report that this device does not work very well. Windows interacts with this device in ways that are particularly annoying to me. At one point I received an error message from Microsoft, telling me that it had disabled some of the functionality of this device -- for my protection. I slept much better that night, knowing that Microsoft was watching out for me -- much as they do when, in Microsoft Word, the program insists that the first letter of the first word on any line, be capitalized. Thank God for Microsoft. Sadly, their presence on my computer is a reality, and they don't work well with this microphone."
325765,1,Doesn't work with Windows 7,"I was/am looking for a microphone for my laptop and this one received excellent reviews; however, I couldn't get it to work with my computer and I believe that it is because my laptop uses Windows 7 (not Vista or 2000, etc.). The paperwork with this microphone did not mention capatibility with Windows 7 and I wasn't able to get it to work; therefore, I assume that it won't work with Windows 7 operating systems."
325819,1,Too little burn time. Package was all bent up and leaking.,"The product arrived bent up, with fuel leaking from 2 of the tins. They were unusable and I was only able to use one of the tins. It has very little burn time."
325828,1,Not sure if it works,"I bought this product because my dog was eating grass non stop. I thought it was because her diet was not complete. After adding this to her food for over a month, I didn't notice any difference. Not even in her coat as some people claimed it would help. She still eats grass too. I'm not sure if it works to help stop grass eating but I'm sure it still provides additional nutrition to cheap food. Still, I probably won't buy it again."
325835,1,Shameful!,"Got this movie because of the reviews and my love of 3-D on my HD TV. First, the glasses had the red and blue reversed, making them unusable, but when viewing this mess, with glasses I had, there was no part of the experience that came even close to being 3-D. Unless I got a very bad copy, this was as dull in content as I would ever wish to experience, so the only thing that could possibly have saved it would have been spectacular 3-D.National Geographic has really gone way down if they consider this entertainment, and as far as the other reviewers go...well! Maybe I'm not as easily entertained as they are!Amazon, as usual, allowed me to return it."
325885,1,dissappointed with Amazon,"The tortuga rum cakes are the most delicious cakes I've had, but was disgusted with what amazon delivered. I don't know if it was old stock, but the cakes had been robbed of their moistness. Cannot express my disappointment and shame, since they were gifts to my friends. Amazon should be careful when it comes to food to ensure its fresh."
325893,1,Don't waste your money!,"I am interested in starting a direct marketing business and thought the title of this book was just what I needed. Besides, it is written by a full collection of professionals. But once you start reading it, you realize these guys missed the internet boat. There are a few interisting points, here and there, but you could get them in almost any direct marketing book."
325917,1,Not a lot of ab work!,"I bought this product hoping for a lot of ab work. This video focuses on cardio and then brings in some ab work. I already do cardio, I wanted something that my trainer in New York would do, instead I got a lot of foot work. It does break of the monatany of my favorite videos."
325945,1,Not Interesting,This pamphlet was not what I expected. (It is maybe 40 pages) It is all true/false questions. It is not motivating or challenging. It was not what I expected.
326000,1,Avoid this router...,"It's cheap, but you get what you pay for. It shipped with v 1.50.10 of the firmware, but using this version, the router didn't work with one of my friend's wireless cards. Upgrading it to 1.50.14 broke connectivity with another one of my friend's wireless card. When I upgraded it to 1.52.02, there were no connection problems with the wireless... but now, random connections will drop every few minutes. It makes the connection more or less useless. I'm planning on upgrading routers--I haven't decided to what yet. Even though the DGL-4300 by DLink is a lot more expensive, all the reviews are positive, so I'm strongly considering upgrading to that."
326008,1,Lousy,"The wireless intermittently cuts out completely (ie, the lights on the front indicate it is no longer providing wireless service), the port-forwarding completely broke in the latest version of the firmware, there are no docs for the updated firmware, even though the web interface has changed and added new features, and the docs have no information for using the router with anything other than Windows.Rotten, lousy, piece of garbage. The last Linksys product I'll ever own, that's for sure."
326055,1,Las Putas Sucias De Genio Records,"this dvd sucks, the girls have horrible facesthe dancing is repetitive it eventually gets boringthe only good thing about this dvd are the songs on the videos"
326077,1,NO CONSISTENCY,"Ordered 2 white 33"" blinds and was very happy when fitting the first one and it fit perfectly. Then opened the second box and realized that the color didn't match the first one. It's too much of a hassle so I didn't return either of them. I need to order 4 more but might try to see if the Alabaster color will be more consistent."
326106,1,Where is the table of contents?,"What is the point of offering ""Jules Verne: Five Complete Novels"" if you are not going to list the titles of the novels? Jules Verne is a tremendous writer, but why should a buyer have to ""guess"" what 5 titles are included here?"
326115,1,Loudest dust blower around!,Should have taken this thing back right away. It is so horribly loud that it makes your ears ring from using it. The entire unit is covered in dust that escapes from it when vacuuming. It definatly sucks...and not in a good way!
326142,1,What A Drag,"this game is so boring, don't get confused this is nothing like the other kirby games. It's in the style of tetris. and it gives tetris a bad name. This was a disapointment.If you liked this game check out all of the other kirby games"
326250,1,Glad I didn't buy it,"I love Jane Austen and this version of Mansfield Park, well, who ever decided on the costumes should be fired. Through the entire movie I kept telling Fannie 'put your hair up'. The Bertram's would have had her put her hair up and have her be presentable. For her and all the other women, I kept wanting to tell them 'cover your chest'. The dresses weren't even from Jane's time period. The only thing I LOVED about this version was Edmund's discovery of loving Fannie and his mother's awareness to support it."
326256,1,Visually beautiful + Some substances in the plot but overall it's not good..,"The copy I bought was titled ""Joongcheon"" with English subtitle. It's visually beautiful. It also has some substances in the plot but overall it's not a good movie. It's because relationship between the 2 main characters are not touching at all. The fighting scenes are not good as in other Korean-made movies such as ""Shadowless Sword"" or ""Warrior"".It's worth watching once."
326264,1,big disappointment,"This is not a review on the product so much as the seller. My 12 year old son bought the game shark. He was so excited when it arrived quickly.Imagine his disappointment when it didn't work.I wrote to the seller received a prompt apology and was told the money would be returned.All that's great and much appreciated,but guess what? I am still waiting more than a month later.This is supposed to be a reputable seller.In my opinion that remains to be seen."
326293,1,Bumble & Bumble Creme de Coco Shampoo,I have used this product before and loved it. It did not seem like the same product. It smelled like Suave instead of the rich coconut smell I usually associate with this product. It made my hair feel tangled and dry. Will buy the product from a retail store or directly from Bumble and Bumble in the future.
326335,1,"Better Than Nothing, I Suppose","There's joy indeed in hearing such obscure film melodies as ""Hollywood Party"" and ""My Bluebird Is Singing the Blues"" outside of their celluloid realm, yet I can't help but remain somewhat wistful over the treatment given here. If Miss Klein had opted to sing through her throat, instead of her nose, the results might not only have been happier, but more authentic to the period. I'll never understand the prevalent queer notion that any song from the 20's and 30's requires an imitation of Betty Boop to put it over. Certainly, this affectation was not present in the original recordings. As it is, if you're especially fond of the Broadway revival of ""42ND STREET"" you'll go for this in a big way. If you're a vintage musical fan, though, this is best avoided. On a positive note, the arrangements and musical accompaniment are delightful... but the vocalist is little more than a parody of a 1950's parody of a 1920's/30's vocalist. Pity."
326386,1,Done with Stylenac,"I have used the Renac for years and loved it. I was no longer able to buy it at the beauty supply, so I ordered on line. It was changed to stylenac, which I was not aware of when I ordered. This looks like the same curling iron, except for the color, but it does not heat enough to curl my hair. I can hold it on my hair for 5 minutes and it barely gets warm. I liked the old one because it was hot and would curl my hair fast. This one heats like a cheap curling iron in the discount stores. The heating element is not the same."
326414,1,Amusing,"If there is any question that Diana is the voice of the Supremes this CD is the proof. I laughed out loud, shook my head and marveled at all of the lies told over the years about Flo's voice.This is a joke. Sadly, people believe(d) the myth. I would put any Diana/Supremes B-side against anything on this collection and listen/hear it for yourself? The legend is a just a myth."
326464,1,Maybe the film will cannibalize itself?,"This is the most ridiculous low budget film I've seen in a long time. It boasts to be ""based on the true story of the Sawney Bean clan!"" but has little or no factual information about the infamous inbreds of Scotland. If you want to see a movie about inbred hillside cannibals stick with either version of The Hills Have Eyes."
326494,1,All - just a man,"I agree that everything that we believe in should be based and studied on a Biblical basis and its foundation. I disagree with several who say that Rick Warren built most of his ""purpose-driven"" principles on the ""wisdom of the world"" and not on God's word. Much of the ""wisdom of the world"" is based on Biblical Christian principles, and they don't even know it! Why should we accept James Sunquist? He's just a man just like Rick Warren. Sounds like jealousy to me. Demeaning another person as this author has is NOT healthy for the church or the kingdom of God. Even though I've heard Rick Warren speak and feel he is a godly person, NO PERSON is to be worshipped and put above God."
326521,1,meh...,"This watch looked good in the pictures, the dial is slim, and it is perfectly adequate, but the strap is short and looked cheap upon arrival. Not a bad watch, but not great. I ended up returning mine. I would recommend viewing this model in person before buying to make sure you like it. Thank god Amazon makes returns easy."
326536,1,Under par,"This par I'm talking about here is not golf, where under par is good. This album just does not measure up to Clapton's other work. Cranking out albums because you can is not alway a good idea and this is a good example of such."
326602,1,Just an observation,"I looked at all the recent 5 star ratings to see what other books these people have reviewed. Guess what! The only books they have reviewed are this one or other DeMark books... This is an important point and not at all a frivolous comment. For the newbie to Amazon: You need to know if the reviewer is a friend, cohort, or other vested interest, or a genuine end user writing about his/her experience. One way to get an idea is to look at what they review. Also, is the review specific and does it criticize as well as praise?"
326606,1,Misled,"I was very disappointed when I received the cd and found that it did not have the version with Mystikal. I have never heard the version on this cd, all I had ever heard in the club and on the radio is the version with Mystikal, which I am guessing was a remix. If you are looking for that version... make sure you are clear with the vendor. Wasted my money on this one. I don't like it at all. Sounds like a couple of kids in the bathroom playing with a tape recorder."
326636,1,My dog won't play with it......,"I did everything I knew how to get our 9yr old pooch to play with this, but Buddy would have none of it. They smelled like old tires, and left a rubber smell on my hands. I washed them over and over, and even when treats were put inside of them, once the treats were out, Buddy was done with the toy...back to his worn tennis balls.To make matters worse, the toys looked so cute I got two of them, different styles. Now there are 2, rubber-smelling dog toys in Buddy's box that he'll have nothing to do with. :-("
326676,1,Tedious read,After buying into the hype I bought this book. Needless to say I wished I had borrowed it from the library so that I could return it with haste and not be out of pocket $11. I read the book and found the writing slow and plodding and tedious. The writer was not at all skillful at creating page turning imagery. I continued reading in the false hope that the book and the character development would get better.Down to the last page it did not. The book was a disappointment for me and blah.
326728,1,I should have read to reviews,"I,m upset I have had the product one day and my volume doesnt work.. I had no Idea that I would not be able to see my daughter at night.. Plus you pay more here than if you go straight to aiptek web site... I cant return it to a store I have to pay to put back in the mail..."
326762,1,disgusting,Geriatric hardcore. It's unlike the rest Wharton's books which I liked very much. I wish I had missed it.
326772,1,BuckColey,"I bought this for my daughter who is in 2nd grade. Cute bag, but after only two months the shoulder strap has separated from the bag. Might be ok for a overnight bag but doesn't seem to be a good choice for everyday use."
326786,1,BEEEP--BEEEEP-BEEEP-BEEEP-BEEEP your XXX,"Every key you hit on this thing triggers a loud beep. They have to be kidding with all the beeping this thing does...and to what end????? There is no added value to the beeping.As a business phone, this phone is useless. Try taking someone off mute...the beeping sound makes them think you are recording the call...not a very nice image to create in the minds of your colleagues and customers.If you have busy phone days like I do, you may need to juggle a few calls at once...2nd line...cell phone.... you may not want the person with whom you are speaking, to know that you have muted the phone on your end...this phone gives you no choice, when you drop off and come back on, it will beeeeep you till you fling it out the window. This will surely drive you nuts if you're a business user.It would be soooo simple to make this a user programmable option.Don't bother with this phone."
326806,1,Unfriendly,"I found this book very difficult to follow. He is trying to answer too many questions in one book and the information becomes very confusing instead of sticking with the basics.May consider writing several books and breaking them down to the different levels instead of trying to cram it all in one do it all book.Horses are like people they come in all different sizes, shapes, and intelligence. The book you need for guidance needs to be as such to fit the horse's needs, so you can train them properly."
326910,1,THIS WASN'T A VERY GOOD GAME FOR GAMEBOY.,First of all this wasn't a good game that gameboy made. It was to easy. Very easy that I beat the whole game in 9 hours. I didn't use any cheats to do it. I agree with one of the early reviews that the guards can't see you. You can be right beside them and they will would keep walking. The only way that they can see you is if youre in their path of walking. The only reason that I gave it a star was that the last mission was the hardest of them all. This game needs to be improved and longer because it only has 10 short missions. I would only recommed this game to people who love easy and short games. Also people who liked the mission impossible movie.
326923,1,What Garden?,"I bought this for my Drinkwell Platinum which I and my cats love. However nothing green grew from the seed pod, just some white stringy things. Next time I'm not going to waste my time. I will buy $0.10 worth of barley grass and a little potting soil and grow my catgrass (barley grass) the right way. No fault of Amazon as a reseller but Drinkwell really needs to improve these or quit selling junk."
326927,1,A TOTAL DISGRACE,"I agree 100% with Johnny Boy (another reviewer)that this album is a total disgrace to Willie Nelson, and never should have been released. Luckily, I did not buy the CD, but I listened to the soundbites, and that was enough to turn me off. And I will also stay away from anything the American Legends label puts out.It's too bad we cannot issue a zero rating, because one star is really too high for this album."
326937,1,need some handkerchief,"We all knew that Costes' spirit faded away about the 4th volume. Anyway we didn't miss unity in other opus. Tracklistings were varied and elegant. #7 lost rang, and #8 make you feel sick.Tracks by Tosca (good Heidi Bruehl despite it's been compiled in lots of places), Mark Farina and Parov Stelar remain to mythical moments of ""La Suite (#2)"" and ""Etage Trois (#3)"".Mixing is bad and when it's good a pc mixed what the ""Dj"" could not mix (we are inured to Pompougnac's works) and you can perfectly guess where the cut of a track is.Brazilian dreadful tunes (Zuco 103), hip hop for old snobs who can't throw their Jazzanova café-music CDs (Smooth) and music for nappy TV ads (Flying Pop's).What about Htel Costes 60?"
326986,1,false advertising of litecubes,"Tray of Twenty Four (24) Litecubes Flashing LED Multi-Color Freezable Ice Cubes / RocksThe product I received was not Litecubes brand ""litecubes"" as advertised. The ""litecubes"" received are a lot smaller than Litecubes brand ""litecubes"". The product I received does not have 8 function light choice capabilities, as Litecubes brand ""litecubes"" do; it has one choice that flashes in all colors. The ""litecubes"" received also do not look the same as in the picture, with the Litecubes brand with the little ""R"" in the circle becaues they're fakes!"
327003,1,Looks Good but Cheesy,This item does include all the components necessary to change over to a brushed nickel look. However the metal on the valve plate is very thin and the tub spout leaks back toward the wall when in the shower position from the slide on fitting unless you tinker with it as I did several times to get it to stop. I had to adjust the depth of the copper pipe going into the tub spout by moving the white nylon ring back and forth in the tub spout. If you're not handy or are going to be at all rough with these components they will not last. Also the screws sent to replace the overflow cover were to small necessitating a trip to the hardware store.
327030,1,Don't waste your money!!!,"I loved the song ""Save Tonight"" when I heard it on the radio. Then it popped up everywhere like shows like Felicity and Dawson's Creek. So I borrowed it from a friend and expected more great songs. It was such a let down! I'm glad I didn't waste my money and you shouldn't either. And for his skills as a musician they are minimal."
327061,1,THIS is music???,"Before purchasing this 2-CD package I scanned through, as is my custom, some of the many customer reviews, and was excited as I read so many comlimentary comments regarding ""Selected Ambient Works Volume II.""In retrospect I wasted about $19.00 on this absolute piece of trash. For those expecting this CD to contain beautiful, harmonious music - you will be sadly disappointed. The best I can say is that it's like a movie soundtrack to a bizarre horror movie. This most definitely is NOT music, at least not in the traditionally accepted meaning of the term - but completely weird, discordant, electronic noise.Please, don't waste your money or your time on this nonsense."

327067,1,"bad camera, bad cust service from HP","I used this camera while studying abroad. It lasted until the last day of my trip, then the memory card wouldn't stay in the slot. I'm careful with my equipment and never dropped the camera or anything like that.However, I disliked the camera prior to it completely not working, as the view screen (there is no view finder) jerks around so that you cannot see what you're aiming at unless your hand is completely still. Also, the battery cover does not like to stay closed.As I'm still under the mfr warranty, I faxed the receipt, model and serial nbrs, and my contact info several times and am still experiencing unresolved customer service issues with HP tech support. If you want to avoid the possibility of problems like the above and do not want to deal with a cust service headache, go with a decent camera for a little more money. Sony Cybershots have worked well for other people I know."
327099,1,"Nice looking, but mine only lasted 25 days","I bought this watch because it was very cool looking and dual time which I need for my job. After I received it I found out you push the crown in for 2 seconds to activate the touch screen to get to the various functions (date, world time, chrono, etc). Every time I bent my wrist it was beeping at me trying to activate the touch screen. I called Tissot (really Swatch) about this they said to just turn the beep off and then they told me they have already discontinued this watch. Finally after just 25 days it quit working and was permanently stuck in one of the function modes so I returned it. Amazon very quickly refunded my money. Happy with Amazon, but I'll never own another Tissot."
327116,1,This was a big let down...,Beautiful scale that only lasted a couple of months. I would not recommend it at all. It would also get dirty very easily and hard to clean underneath. I'm so tired of homedics all together.

327227,1,"Slow, nave and boring","Ok, as people say, this is the rite of passage of Iko Uwais, so, don't expect so much.But if we make a comparison with Ong Bak (they are neighbors countries anyway) there are oceans away of action standards.Iko Uwais and Tony Jaa will be never be compared. One is a master of choreography, the Indonesian is just a fine fighter, no more no less.G. Evans, by the way, just broke through in the martial art scenes, he still need to watch Hong Kong standards of movement and reality.I mean, it is just a first movie, don't expect too much (according to this duet), however the elevator's scene is hot (and I assume that brown guy is The Raid's Mad Dog)... and of course, a much better and compact movie is The Raid, that's is breathtaking (not this one)."
327231,1,Not Reliable,"Have had several of these tubes and they all seem to develop slow leaks around the stem. Also, I'm not sure the slime works, it just got all over the inside of my tire but didn't actually stop the leak."
327336,1,Not what it appears to be,This album does not contain songs from the original Kingston Trio group. They are a look a like group that does not do justice to the original Trio recordings. The silkscreen songs on the title of each CD do not match the actual songs on the CD. The whole collection is a major rip off. Save your money.
327339,1,I like Hockney but not this book,"well my review title says it all (although Amazon won't let me stop there).I do like Hockney in general even though he is a much more cerebral artist than I prefer.I did not read the story behind each painting/drawing because that's not what I'm interested in. But if one must read about a painting to enjoy it then somethings missing.The only work I really enjoyed was #100 of his mum. The drawings seemed much stronger than the paintings (to me) and some I've liked in the past seemed missing from this book (or maybe I'm imagining that).I know it's not my place to tell Mr. Hockney to let go and get a little emotional but that's what I feel looking at the portraits. Restrained, inhibited, arms length, surface not depth."
327361,1,"If you get this, you're out of your mind!!","This DVD set costs $107.99 and takes up a lot of shelf space. You are crazy if you buy this. There is a re-packaged version of this season which costs less and takes up a lot less shelf space. You'll save yourself $66.75 if you buy the re-packaged set. All the same content is there. So, be smart! Don't buy this. You are only going to rip yourself off. Buy the repackaged version for only $41.24."

327435,1,Thinly veiled Rock Hudson story served up as farce,"Straight-Jacket would have us believe that it is a clever wink wink at Hollywood in the 1950's, delivered as a ficticious tale about the very real Hollywood closet life homosexuals lived. Maybe...but only a bit.The acting is good enough. And Veronica Cartright is always fun to watch, especially here as she chews up the scenery. But it's still not enough to save this film from itself.The plot of the film roughly follows the life of Rock Hudson. He was known to be gay by the ""in the know"" people in Hollywood, but when fear of it getting out was on the horizon, the studio married him off to a secretary.I don't know what the point of the film really is, but as an innocent farce, it's fine, but it's not much deeper than that."
327464,1,Disappointing...,"With such a strong cast, I was unpleasantly surprised. Stopped watching after 15min because the acting seemed flat, and the movie unappealing."
327493,1,Stupid and Predicatble Hollywood Star Glitz,"The only thing about this movie that is like the original is the title. The entire movie seems like nothing but a way for Russell Crowe to show everyone just how tough, sexy and cool he is. Everyone else in this movie seems like a complete idiot or totally corrupt. Apparently only the bad guys in this movie can shoot straight. Even when the good guys have the upper hand they never take advantage of it. The ending makes no sense at all. Why would Crowe suddenly turn on his own men and kill them? Why wouldn't Bale's character shoot Crowe's character rather than let him escape? And of course at the end they have to leave the impression that Crowe's character can escape from prison because then they can make a sequel for more money. From the impression I got from listening to Peter Fonda in a interview on NPR about this movie I expected a much better movie. Don't waste your time. The whole movie is just an ego trip for Russell Crowe."
327543,1,This one is TERRIBLE!,"They're first 3 albums were so funny my stomach would ache listening but this one is crap. One or two decent calls that really don't even make you laugh hard but they're funny. It sounds like some of these are staged and aren't real calls too. They're living off of their name with this one, don't waste your money!"
327544,1,Lacking Intuition,"After I heard the album a few times, I noticed that the Boys had hardly anything to say (unprepared) and it seems that improv ruled, which hurt, because the whole schtick is to tell some bull story which will alone make the listener laugh, and the predator has to have the know-how, communication skills, and comedic talent to successfully pull it off. Kamal and Jack Tor S losing their cool made me twitch my eyebrow. The endings were chopped off a good 5 calls, which was the final straw, and they could have saved space for the ECD and the endings if they took out the 2 Rosine calls. I absolutely know that the next album will be a winner. Get Jerky Boys 4 until that time comes."
327547,1,No more,"From what I've seen of Bijou in interviews, at clubs, etc. she is a spoiled brat and a vile human being. And, if possible, her ""music"" is even worse. Her voice is thin and out of tune. To see a no-talent girl like Bijou get a record contract convinces me of the unfairness of the world. Other people say to buy this album despite her because her backing musicians are good. Well then why, oh why did they choose to hook their star to hers?"
327574,1,Yawn - a Waste of Time and Energy,"An amazingly boring book about obscure, tedious Victorian poets and the obscure, tedious modern-day academics who study them. As parody, it is about 500 pages too long. The author is apparently paid by the word. Life is too short to waste on this book. Read ""The French Lieutenant's Woman"" if you want a juxtapostion of Victorian and modern times. Unlike this book it's actually engaging."
327583,1,Could Have Been Better,"The book (entitled Binary) was great, suspenseful and kept me reading. In fact, while I was reading it I kept thinking it would make a great film. Then, while surfing through Amazon's recommendations based on my previous purchases (I had purchased Coma and The Great Train Robbery - both are good solid films directed by Crichton) I saw this. Due to the DVD case art I was expecting a great movie. I was unfortunately disappointed with both the acting and script. It almost makes me sad that Crichton, himself, directed this. The story is good and could make a great movie. This is one of those that I wished Hollywood would adapt and set in the present day. It would make a good thriller.My advice, skip the film, but read the book."

327753,1,Already stopped working,Received this item in October 2011 and it is already broken. A $50 item should last longer than nine months. Very dissatisfied.
327766,1,Returning this steamer,"I was excited to receive this steamer after reading the reviews on amazon..but am Highly disappointed and am returning this product after really having high hopes for this product.The steamer DOES heat up quickly just after a few seconds which i thought was great...but each time i've tried to use this steamer, which is a handful of times now..actual Steam only comes out for about 10-15 minutes.I untangle the hose..keep it upright..don't overfill with water and keep it filled at the correct level suggested and it just doesn't give me more steam then the 10-15 minutes worth.. and Ugh..i really was hoping this steamer would work well for me..and maybe i received a dud..but overall i dont know, so am going to return it and try another steamer altogether."
327769,1,The plastic smell is awful. Save your money to invest in something that won't emit plastic fumes.,"I loathe ironing so I decided to try out a steamer, since I had a good experience using one to de-wrinkle clothes back in the day when I volunteered at a thrift store.Maybe my memories of the thrift store steamer were a bit too optimistic, because this steamer definitely isn't as efficient as the one I had remembered. It does the job eventually, but not without inconsistent steaming. Also, there's an awful plastic smell when you first turn on the steamer, which can't be good for your health.I may keep using this occasionally when I really need a good pressed shirt or suit, but I'm going to keep looking for something better. I don't recommend wasting your time on this one -- save your money for something that's more efficient and not so bad for your health."
327792,1,Just more banal Hip-Hop junk.,"Rap will never have a clever songwriter (re: ""Beep Beep, Who Got Da Keys To Da Jeep,"" is NOT good poetry) who can write pensive, invigorating songs. On top of that, none of these vacuous subhuman scum can even sing; which again, is sadly exhibited here by Eightball and M.I.G. Oh yeah, that drum machine thud is starting to sound REALLY hackneyed."
327820,1,Not what I thought,I did not like the movie and lacked everything from the first movie that one was great so I thought it would be as good but not.
328028,1,Um...no,"I didn't really think that I would enjoy this book but I went ahead and read it just to ""see"" if Britney had any writing talent. I do have to admit that Britney and her mom did a nice job with details and sentence structure but the plot was HORRIBLE! I know that it's a good idea write what you know and I'm sure Britney knows about or has experienced some of these kinds of things, but it was WAY too cutsie pie to be enjoyed or taken seriously. Maybe a 9-year-old can appreciate this story line but I think it will be hard for anyone else to take pleasure in reading this book. It was...OK, and I think I'm being nice. Good try, Brit, better luck next time."
328111,1,Disapointed,"I would not deal with this Seller again. I purchased a Book from them, and never received it. When I E-Mailed them they did not respond."
328154,1,will not work for newer macbooks,"I read somewhere that this was a mini-dvi, but it's actually mini-vga. I wish they had made that apparent somewhere on the description..."
328166,1,Guilt By Association,"I think anyone reading this book will feel that they have been made to feel guilty. To me, more than trying to help with these feelings, the book does more to bring them to your attention and you begin to think - OMG - what am I doing with my kids and I should feel guilty about it !The book is an easy read and does not do much to answer any questions in my opinion. It may make you feel better however, because it says its ok to feel guilty. In the end - the book did little for me."
328207,1,The reviews are written by the author?!!,I am merely in the process of conducting a search;but the fact that the author has written the reviews himself (and refers to himself in the third person for one review)causes this marketer to not be interested in what he has to say. How ridiculous! Note: The review requires selecting a rating. I have not actually read the content which may be quite good.
328217,1,Needing polish,"While the content within the songs of the album are intelligent, most of the vocal tracks were surprisingly unpolished. It is with wonder that the producer of the album did not take the time to either suggest more work on the vocals, as oftentimes the vocalist is unable to reach a solid note, or to completely redo various tracks to ""cover up"" the lack of strength and range. A typical album, typical genre of low grade music styling, and just overall typical. Not one of my favourites but everyone wants to be a star, eh?"
328269,1,BIASED REVIEWS,"I was interested in purchasing this popcorn maker as part of a gift set. However, when reading the reviews on Amazon.com I realized a serious problem. The reviews are biased. Look through the 79+ reviews. You'll see the majority of the reviews give the product a full 5 stars (which is extremely surprising considering most reviewers are finicky), are written in the same tone/style of writing, and say what a wonderful gift this would make. Many also mention that it's the best popcorn ever and they've used it for several years. Some even venture to say it only works well only if you use Wabash popcorn.If you read reviews less than 5 stars you'll see all writers say this gadget broke/melted within a couple months. There is a serious bias in these reviews and I hope consumers are not being taken advantage of. Some of the high reviews may be valid but I'm quite certain nearly all are false...I've decided not to purchase the item."
328296,1,"Not useless, but not necessary either...","I got it as a package deal, but once I opened it I didn't think it was really worth my trouble. Get it if you like long list of contact and extra characters in your game. or if your running low on run ideas it has a few suggestions."
328349,1,Worst battery charger ever,"I've used various NiMH chargers for years, and this is probably the worst I've ever used. I keep it next to my computer to charge AA batteries for my bluetooth keyboard and mouse, and the batteries last approximately 1.5 days before they need another charge. If I put the exact same batteries into my $15 energizer charger I bought from walgreens, they last for weeks. This is regardless of whether I use the new Sony batteries that came with the device, or the energizers I get from walgreens.It's also very aggressive about reporting that batteries are past their usable lifetime. Some of the batteries I just got with the device are already dead after only a few charge cycles.Perhaps I got a dud, but I will stay away from sony chargers in the future."
328371,1,Great actresses poorly done story,I really wanted to like this movie. I really did. It wasn't that it was just over the top or anything. There were only two characters I actually liked and the rest I couldn't stand. I don't understand why it's appealing to have three of the main characters talking bad about the bride and even calling her pig the night before her wedding. What's the point?
328387,1,Stopped working,"I purchased this controller and was immediately dissapointed. It was large and clunky (this is from a dude with large hands). The triggers are tooo sensitive, and not ideal for games which require a bit of tension with the springs. (See ESPN NBA BASKETBALL). I like the fact that the black and white buttons are shoulder buttons. But more than anything else I wouldnt suggest it because within a few weeks the controller started to freak out and then i suddenly died out on me.ProsBlack and white shoulder buttonsPriceConsBig and clunkyIt feels cheapSensitive L+R TriggersStopped working"
328396,1,Buyer Beware !!!,"I have puchased 2 of these units and both have broken within a year of purchase.. Internal workings are very cheap and crack easily.. Had to be creative keeping the second one working because any of the parts that may break are not replaceable..Hard to replace entire unit, but your pretty much committed after drilling 4 1/4 inch holes through your tiles to install.. Spend a little more and save the headaches..."
328471,1,"Great concept, but . . .","I have gone through 2 of these now. It works well for awhile, but then it will not hold a charge because the connection for the recharging cord gets corroded. I will say that WaterPik did stand behind the product by replacing the first one, but because of this product's design flaw, I will not get another."
328489,1,Ineffective,I liked this product when I saw how small it is. When I tried to use it I saw how ineffective and cumbersome it is. Don't buy it get a real water pick. It's a real waste of money.
328523,1,Repetitive and tries to over-complicate the subject,"I found the content repetitive and the points laboured. The information provided could have been easily presented in 10 pages. Instead the author attemps to over-complicate the topic and confuse the reader. I'm not sure who he is trying to impress, but he didn't impress this reader. E-mail connectivity is an important technology. Getting it right can be the difference between a low maintenance, efficient, fast infrastructure and a painfully slow, troublesome and unreliable one. Unfortunatly this book only succeeds in clouding the issues involved."

Guess what format all the movie lesson files are in. Oh yeah, QuickTime! I'm only 40 pages into this and already five major mistakes which should have been picked up in proof reading. One paragraph applies only to Premiere 6.5 and shouldn't even be in the book. Why Wiley sells junk like this is beyond comprehension."
328633,1,Lacks Excitement,"I rented this game for a week. It follows the book closer than the movie, but the task and objectives in the game are boring and sometimes tedious."
328703,1,Not the latest and greatest,"I bought this product during my last outbreak but it arrived too late to be useful. So I had it on hand already for this current outbreak.Felt the first tingling at work around 4:30PM. Got home around 6:00PM, blister was not yet visible, but there.Applied first vial, being careful to follow directions to a T.By 10PM I could feel it spreading. Woke up in the morning with a full blown, large, ugly, painful, outbreak on my entire lower lip. Applied a 2nd vial around 11AM. It is now 7:30PM, while the blister is not yet ozing, it is very close.It is still very painful, and growing.I had high hopes but foied again."

328788,1,Puts up quite a fight for a little guy,"I received one of these sanders for Christmas when my PC 333VS finally died. I had the 333VS for about 10 years and loved it. I had to replace the little band a couple times, but that was quick and easy. So when I needed a new one, I went with the PC 343K.I used it a couple times, but the main problem I had with it was that I always felt that I was fighting it. It wanted to go where it wanted to go, and I had little say in the matter. It didn't matter what grit paper I was using or what type of wood I was sanding, it was a struggle to move it where I wanted. It also vibrated enough that my hand was tingling after using it for about 5 minutes. Sanding is arduous enough without having to do battle with the sander.I've since donated it to a military base woodworking shop and bought a DeWalt D26453K, and love it. It's a little dustier, but it runs smooth and does a great job."
328834,1,Compressor works but no freon in system 5 year warrany on sealed system where?,"Tried manufacture got hung up on then now told this is the old model the new one is like a aes3105. Frigeration Tech looked and turned on unit only saying it has a system leak or freon not installed, so it will not get cold. Now maybe because it's a older model we can not get a replacement from seller maybe because it was a older model setting around and thus reason for problem in the first place. Now I had a guy install unit modify window to fit their unit and can not get warrantied as maker only changes smaller units out. Seller will not replace with current model aes3105 even though unit they sold me is defective and non-functional couple years old according to maker of units. It will only blow warm air nothing close to cold with out freon. Maker said unit is a couple year older model and they will only exchange it a 4 week process in the middle of coming summer in OK. Sucks"
328845,1,This went nowhere,"After reading so much about the book in the NYT, i was hoping it would pick up at some point, however it didn't. Even at the end when you think it may, it still falters... Sorry, spend your time reading something else."
328959,1,Only oatmeal- no granola.,"This product is only sweetened oatmeal with varying amounts of blueberries, but there is absolutely NO GRANOLA in any of the the 4 boxes I've eaten so far. So when the box says Granola, read oatmeal and six dried blueberries. It tastes fine for what it is, just know that it is not granola (like the box says it is)."
329114,1,Nonsense.,"Grante has no idea at all of style appropriate to this idiom. Most of these are unrecognizable. No sense of texture, tone, legato, or anything else that would have meant anything to Godowsky. Check out Godowsky's American records, e.g. the Berceuse, (not the Columbias) to hear what I mean. As bad as I've heard since Szidon's hysterical Scriabin or Pollini's brutal Chopin. No bueno. Really no stars at all."
329168,1,Disappointed,"I have to admit that I was very disappointed with the novel after reading the glowing reviews. This book was probably one of two books I have never finished. I just could not bring myself to complete it. I honestly found no character that pulled me in emotionally. Everyone seemed to be caricatures of one fault or another, including the father and daughter. In all honesty, my opinion of almost every book or movie rests with the abilty to care about at least one character. In this book, I found no one. I was turned off by every person in the story. And as for the chills, I did not see what the other reviewers saw.I have never been one to put someone off of something. But this time I just had to write something down. Judging by all of the other reviews, I am in the extreme minority. I may give another of Tamara Thorne's novels a try. It may have just been this particular book."
329197,1,Not good at all....,"The only GOOD thing about this phone case is that has a little weather protection and in some situations protects the phone from shocks/drops and that obviously looks cool.The swivel adaptor collapses after 2-4 months of usage, so it makes the release button useless, the phone case will release itself with just a little pressure in the bottom, even if you don't push the release button, the case will fall if you are getting out/in of your car. Think twice before you buy it."
329249,1,"metal connector nails unavailable in 2 1/2""","I was going to buy this for a deck job. The Bostitch joist hangar nails are horribly overpriced on Amazon and not available locally. My local guy told me Bostitch is no longer supplying the 2 1/2 metal connector nails. He just shrugged when I asked about the future availability of the 1 1/2 inch metal connector nails. He said they might just be selling out what they had and there would be no more. However, that was just speculation, as Bostitch ain't talkin' .....Will search more first.Either that or buy a brand with reasonable nail prices. I will have to do a nail count to see if the saving on nails will pay for buying a Senco Joistmaster."
329265,1,Doesn't work well to change my feelings.,"From my experience, these kind of healing books don't work well to change my feelings and attitudes. They do have temporary effects, but do not last long. This book also was not the execption. There are many ""Things To Do"" which I should do right now to change my life. But I don't and can't do these ""Things"". Always when I read such kind of books, I am firm about trying to do these ""Things"". But I don't take a whim for reading these kind of books again and thus lose an opportunity to do good ""Things"" entirely. I think volunteering for building GESUNDHEIT INSTITUTE in WEST VIRGINIA and meeting PATCH ADAMS is much more effective than reading this book."
329348,1,They Call Me Naughty Lola,"They Call Me Naughty Lola: Personal Ads from the London Review of Books, edited by David Rose""They Call Me Naughty Lola"" was recommended to me by a friend, and I normally enjoy British humor, so I thought I'd like it. But something about the book was off for me.It just wasn't that funny.The book is nicely put together, with some footnotes for references to British pop culture, but there were some missing references. The acronym WTLM is used in almost every ad, but is never explained. The ads themselves are creative, but I wouldn't consider most of them humorous. I think this book is best in short doses; if you sat down and tried to read it straight through, as I did, the humor dies almost entirely.2/5."
329362,1,Unacceptable for road bikes,"Caution, be aware this product requires you to REPLACE the skewer with their cheap supplied skewer. If you have invested in all high end components, this is not acceptable. Otherwise, you will be completely rebuilding your ride between indoor and outdoor (better not hope you get invited to a group ride the same day your bike is mounted on this piece of crap). Look for equipment that is more flexible in adjustment so that you truly have a quick in and out of the trainer."
329392,1,NO GOOD,Do not waste money and time reading this book. Stuff like this ( and recently 'The Secret') there are no other thing that new ways to some 'authors' to make a lot of money based in people's ingenuousness...

329664,1,Is Aleister Crowley boring? Is that possible?,"It's a shame that this book is so tedious, because the author knows his subject. I read Lawrence Sutin's biography of PK Dick and I was impressed, so I had high hopes for this one. But there's no structure to the story, no plot. Sutin moves from one moment of Crowley's life to the next, never making it clear if he's describing a high point, a low point, a turning point, etc. Halfway through, I promised myself I'd finish the book, sure that as Crowley's life reached the end, Sutin would bring things to a climax. But he didn't. Sutin knows the facts but didn't present them in a compelling way."
329703,1,Looks better than it works,"Not a bad idea: two hemispheres grab enough mix to form a meatball.Problem: if the meatball mixture is really good (like from Cooks' Illustrated) the mix is sticky--and the two halves don't let go. Even with timely dipping in water or whatever.We found a medium ice cream/cookie scoop (e.g.,OXO Good Grips Medium Cookie Scoop) works better. The rotating bail inside the scoop forces the meatball out--even if the mix is sticky."
329738,1,Cleaner two,"2 1/2Too flimsily short for its own good, some of these sonic subtleties do contain interlocking textures of interest."
329746,1,Pretty disappointing.,"I've been a long time fan of -ziq. I don't know about anyone else, but take a quick hit from Lunatic Harness/Brace Yourself, and then put this on. There is no comparison. Much of this cd just seems like the regular ""its crazy electronic music/madness style"" filler. No substance, little originality at this point."
329752,1,Had some problems,"We had this humidifier for 21 days before it quit working. Before that it worked great, the humidity in our home was more comfortable. However, Amazon made it no problem and sent us a new one in about 4 days. We'll see how this one last. Amazon was great in dealing with them."
329831,1,For completists only,"Packaging is nice and professional; however, the sound quality is unacceptable on this German import - it sounds like it was mastered from a beat-up vinyl record. Too bad, as there are some very interesting alternate versions of well-known Neil Young tracks on this long-unavailable album including versions of Alabam, Southern Man and Find the Cost of Freedom/Ohio. I imagine the best route to take for the real audiophile is to search out a vinyl copy in very good condition, as this is undoubtedly one of the worst sounding cd's in my collection. It is generally acknowledged that Journey Through the Past will probably never see the light of day in a digitally remastered format so, at this point, 'you get what you get.'"
329860,1,Poor introduction to PHP and general programming,"I already know Perl and C++. Learning PHP was very easy for me using this book. That being said, I don't think I would have had such an easy experience without my previous knowledge.Butzon leaves out several important concepts such as file IO and advanced searching with regular expressions. He talks nothing of modules and libraries. He seemed to write the boook with the intention of getting readers hooked on MySQL for all their database needs.PHP By Example is fine for experienced programmers to learn the basics of PHP, but I wouldn't recommend this book for anyone else."
329876,1,"No Foil sleeve like 1,2, and 4??? Repackage or New?","I'm sure the episodes are fine, but the other seasons all come in the standard Blu-Ray Plastic Disc Box with a raised cardboard sleeve. season 3 only comes in the plastic case. Awkward. Makes me think this was repackaged without the cardboard cover... clearly a disturbance in the Force and the work of the Dark Side."
329987,1,"False advertising, not what title says.",This is a headphone jack to usb cable. Not what it says. Not even made by apple.
330028,1,A disappointment - both writing and from a technical viewpoint,"I had extreme technical issues with the book - skipping pages, going to the end of the book when trying to get to the next page, and freezing. All of this hassle I would have forgiven if it had been well written. While the premise was interesting, I found the characters to be flat, one-dimensional. It was impossible to warm up to the two main characters - Kit in particular seems to be a spoiled, self-centred brat. About 25% through the book, when it crashed again, I gave up. It just wasn't worth the trouble to read further about someone I couldn't admire or care for."
330044,1,garbage...str8 garbage,"I was so disapointed in this one. I've read quite a few triple crown books and loved them all but this one was by far the worst. First the book was extremely boring. 2nd, the story line was horrible. The plot against Clarence and Danny Boy was horrid. just overall horrible. save your money"
330118,1,"Great at first, not built to last.","UPDATE: After only a couple months, this modem was found to be fragile (it got bumped lightly, but the case cracked easily).

Small size makes it super-portable, too. I love it!"
330152,1,It's a Jungle Out There,"""Zookeeper"" is a horribly bad comedy about a lovelorn animal caretaker. Certainly animals deserve better than this. Kevin James' bath scene is one of the most horrifying scenes in cinematic series.... it gives the shower scene ofPsycho (Collector's Edition)a run for its money. Kevin James woos Stephanie (Leslie Bibb), despite the fact she's found another boyfriend and seems to have moved on. In order to impress her, he works as a car salesman. Though this movie is set in Boston, there are a few tantalizing glimpses of Bean Town's beauty.... plus, there is a plug for TGI Friday's when Kevin brings a gorilla with him. Rosario Dawson (Rent (Widescreen Two-Disc Special Edition),Josie and the Pussycats) stars as Kevin's assistant, who has secretly loved him. As if the awfulAsh Wednesdayweren't penitential enough? ""Zookeeper"" is a lame comedy set in a zoo... and the ending has one thinking Kevin ends up with the gorilla as Rosario looks up to him lovingly."
330171,1,Rather Disappointing,"I was rather disappointed by this book. I was expecting it to be about a childhood spent living at the Playboy Mansion, but it was really more focused on the drugs she used, who she slept with, and naming as many famous people as she could. You learn a lot about her highly dysfunctional family, but there are a lot of better memoirs to be read if that's what you're interested in."
330216,1,Not all things worked,The remote and video output did not work with my zune. I was not impressed with the items at all.
330220,1,"Nice Outside, Ugly Inside -ZERO Star if there is one","I document meetings at work so we got an Olympus VN-480-PC Digital Voice Recorder at work. It did not last one day before I got an ""ERR"" message. It never worked again. We returned it and will never get one ever."
330306,1,bowl tom small,"The bowl seems to be good quality but is to small to work right on my mixer. The bottom fit properly but was to small to turn with the flow of the beaters. I was very disapointed as i have had the mixer for 40 years & the small bowl broke a long time ago, so was excited to have a new one. Oh well guess im stuck now."
330311,1,Auto Meter 2632 Z-Series Clock/Gauge,"The Clock face looks & functions great. The lighting in the clock is not capable of lighting the clock face. This clock was to replace an old Auto Meter clock that was no longer adjustable, the case & structure where easy to trade out. I am not sure why but the old clock illumination was good & the new one is pathetic. If this is a sample of Auto Meters current products I will need to find a new manufacturer for my future gauge needs."
330325,1,insipid,it is incomprehensible that this first truely awful book developed into a funny series. i have read everyother book in this series except this one prior to reading it now. i never read it because of the reviews. the past reviewers were correct. this is bad. i had to force myself to read the first 50 or so pages. then it got better but ended up being just as bad towards the end as the first 50 pages. it is quite unbelievable that a 200 year old vamp could still be as incompetent as a 5 year old child. ugh. you do not need to read this book to appreciate the other books in the series.
330425,1,bought this for my grandson,I would not recommend this tricyle. The handlebars are very awkward and the front wheel has a very small radius. Also the seat is narrow and uncomfortable.

330579,1,they should include a magnifying lens,"First of all, not sure why this book is ""not for tourists."" I guess the authors are trying to be flippant. But, the book is totally for tourists or locals. That said, the book is a convenient size for putting in a back pack or shoulder bag. But, the print is soooo small. The publishers should include a magnifying glass to help people to read this book. Also, the book has lots of restaurants and cafes and shops listed but no detail on prices, cuisine, quality. I don't recommend this book."
330597,1,this product is horrible it broke within minutes,"do not buy this you will be wasting your time and money, it takes hours to charge and is very fragile"
330611,1,It works...,"My expectation w/ it is not that high. So, I like it. Highly recommend to anyone who does not want to spend $$$$ to get high-end to do simple job - charging iPod from outlet."
330704,1,Not worth your time or money,"I'm mainly writing this review to offset the high scores others have given it.There is nothing likable about this heroine - she comes off as a moody, snotty person. The love interest just pops into the storyline and, bam, they're in love. There's no romantic build up, suspense, whatever it is that makes great books a joy to read.The storyline, as others have pointed out, is really ridiculous. A dead woman is 'forcing' her partners-in-crime to turn themselves in for a 20-year-old crime. Easy to do when you won't suffer the consequences because you're dead. While it's it's possible a selfish woman might add this condition to her will, the daughter she posthumously presses into service to make others turn themselves in would certainly see it's a pointless exercise.I just asked myself why? why? why? while reading this."
330862,1,publisher error,"Buyer beware! At page 324, there is a completely different book inserted! Pages 325 through 356 are missing and replaced by pages 343-374 of a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT BOOK. This is for HarperCollins' Greenwillow Book, First EOS edition 2008. Now we have to find one that was published correctly."
330863,1,A look a like,"Me and my cousin, Jamere couldn't wait to get th Mcdonald Cash register. We spend $... for nothing, at first it was cute ,but quickly it became boring. Only neat thing about it was the play food. Usually Jamere and I would agure about who is going to be the cashier, but we sent most of are time aguring about who can be the cook. So don't buy this item, if you want to spend your dayz bored and sitting in front of a Televison all Day. The Barbie and Auto Cash Register are worth a pretty penny, but i'll buy it."
330886,1,worst doodle pad ever,"My 18-month old daughter received this as a Christmas present, and we are so disappointed with it. The doodles self-erase almost instantaneously. Not much fun at all to play with. I would not recommend this toy to anyone, and wish my mother-in-law would have saved her money, or bought a different brand."
330887,1,"This is no ""Ruthless By Law "" substitution","I just got this album the other day & it's not even in the same league as any of RBL's albums or even Hitman's. The beats are nothing but recycled scraps from Lesson 2 B Learned, Ruthless by Law, & Solo Creep. Black C's production is evidant on this album, but it is wack. N.O.H. Mafia's flow sounds like a dumb@ss imitation of Black C & Mr. Cee. There's not one decent cut on this album, let alone good. IF YOUR A FAN OF RBL POSSE, HITMAN, CELLSKI, OR AN OTHER BAY AREA RAPPER - DON'T GET THIS ALBUM."
331040,1,Warning Spoilers,"The first few minutes of this thing was promising, so even though I saw it was only 26 minutes, I decided to go ahead and rent it.I was disappointed.First of all, they talk. Talking zombies has only sat well with me one time, and that was Return of the Living Dead Part One. The talking wasn't horrible, but it made me say ""uh oh"".I guess mostly there was too much whining. As I said, the first few minutes were great, but once they got into the apartment...nope.If you want to see a zombie flick that gives you zombies in one apartment complex with a claustrophobic feeling, I recommend Rammbock Berlin Undead. I think you may like that one better."
331044,1,rant,sorry but I have tried and tried and I just find this to be the most boring musical ever put together.

331233,1,"Great iron. Died after 1 YR,.","This was a great iron. Lots of steam, large water tank, and no water leakage.

331419,1,Didn't like it at all!!,"I didn't even finish it, couldn't get any enthusiasm for it!! Finally gave up trying and admitted it wasn't for me!!"
331521,1,"Interesting, but poorly written","I got this book primarily out of curiosity and perhaps the feeling that to be like R. Don Steele would make me a real man. As I read through the book, I found a lot of what he was saying to be insightful at times, but pretty naive at other times. The biggest concern I had was with the way it was written. I mean, a high school kid's term paper would read so much better. The chapters actually seem to be out of order: ch. 13 is ""Court Her"", immediately followed by ""Find Her"", ""Meet Her"", ""Talk with Her"", and then ""Date Her"". Wouldn't courting come AFTER you meet her? And the writing sounds like it is all rough draft with no editing for readability. Sometimes I thought that after a conquest, while still fairly drunk, he might sit down at the typewriter and punch in his current feelings. So it ends up being an almost unreadable mish-mash at times."
331528,1,Hmmmmmmm,"Well, OK but not that good. Yawn!!!!!Mind you I had read thi years back when Daewoo still ""EXISTED"""
331573,1,Ugh,"This book left a seriously bad taste behind, so much so that I actually feel a little annoyance towards the person who recommended it to me. What a waste of time.I'm not going into why I didn't like the book. There are a couple of reviews here that sum it up quite well. Basically, I think the literature that came with the game is a far more engaging read."
331576,1,Good Heater Bad Smell,Lasko ceramic heaters work well and provide sufficient heat. The only problem I have with them is the smell. Upon turning the unit on the smell was so bad I had to remove it outside. It smelled up the whole house. This smellwill eventually go away when the ceramic heat tubes finally burn off all the oils and the new wares off. Runningit outside for 24 hours really did not help as far as heating the house. Probably would not buy another.
331577,1,USED heaters - TWICE!,"I am very disappointed to say that when I received my heater it was clear that it had been USED. The paint on the buttons was worn, the buttons were not sitting right and there were scratches all over. I contacted Amazon and they sent out a new heater. I just went to open it today and IT TOO HAD BEEN USED! I never have problems with Amazon and I just can't believe this happened twice. The heater seems to work fine but I am appalled that I would be sent used items. Sam's Club sells this for $49.88 - NEW. Should have gotten it there."
331582,1,less than mediocre,"Pros:Can play MP3 filesCan Record VoiceCons: Get ready for this one..-Buttons are located at random places and it's hard to navigate.-The white balance in the camera is very low and most of the time it's dark--when taking pictures inside of a building.-Mediocre Voice Recorder-Bad Picture Quality-Poor Lenses-Poorly Made-Information is not accurately describe on the boxConclusion: Isn't it obvious that this junk is not worth buying? A cheaper digital camera like the HP and Olympus give more bang for your bucks. Sure it doesnt have an mp3 player on board or it might not even have a voice recorder--when recording with movies--but hey, the picture quality is a lot better. That should be the only reason why we buy a digital camera in the first place."
331594,1,Not what I thought it was,"I wanted the music from the Movie. I got THat but only the musical SCORE, not the songs and artist I wanted. VERY MISLEADIING!!!!!!"

331749,1,Ouch,"A collection of easy-listening covers of Enya's music, chieflyfor sale in 7/11 convenience stores, this is most notable for (at least on the original issue) having a set of sleevenotes which were stolen, and thinly-rewritten..."
331765,1,Could have been a lot better,"Honestly, the author has just spliced together all of NASA's tired old astronaut biography sheets which are available for absolutely nothing on the NASA web site. He could at least have updated them, as the information is dated to whenever NASA typed out each bio sheet. All of the other information that I saw contained in this book is available on the web for free or by writing to NASA, and I'm wondering if the ""author"" did anything at all in putting this book together other than assembling all the bio and fact sheets and giving it all untouched to the publisher. For the price you have to pay for this ""book"" he could at least have spent a bit of time deleting all the deceased wives and including children who weren't born when these bio sheets were written. I bet NASA are pretty unhappy about this so-called ""author"" profiting by simply reproducing word-for-word their freely-given information sheets."
331766,1,Great Tool- Terrible Finish,"This tool is great- but the black coating is not. My hands are completely covered in a black, oily substance that is coming off of the tool immediately upon taking it out of the box. It's too bad, because it looks nice, but clearly is not made to withstand even minor use."
331795,1,Not the best,"Unlike other reviewers we have had no problem using the receiver with other software. I have always liked Teletype software and it works with this receiver.As for the RM software, it is pretty good at finding and sorting points of interest in towns that we visit. Worthless for routing as mentioned before you need an internet connection."
331813,1,Nerf Blaster,They say NERF or nothing this rather a big Nothing. This you can shoot hardley any where. It's okay for close range but if you shoot someone while you are hiding it just give you away.
331877,1,Beware de Kindle Edition!,"The book is ok, a little slow as other reviews point out. But the main problem is that the Kindle edition is full of misspellings and typos. Apparently they scan a normal book and have some OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to get the digital version, but with absolutely no quality assurance. Every one or two pages you see a ""l"" as a ""1"" or where and ""r"" is before a ""n"" (like ""concern"") you get an ""m"" (""concem""). This is annoying. It does not make the book unreadable but you would expect better. English is not my fist language but I could do a far better job correcting the book than Amazon is doing."
331920,1,Sub-Par Writing,"I continue to be disappointed in the writing ability of the authors. The first few books were good but it has been downhill since then. I found myself reading indwelllings just to make sure my assumptions about the assasin and everthing else were correct. Now that I find they are I wish I would have saved the money and gotten a one page synopsis of the book from someone. The writing level and suspense of the next book had better be taken to a higher level, otherwise this reader of all 7 books in the series has read his last Left Behind book."
331924,1,DISAPPOINTED,"AFTER WAITING SO LONG FOR THE ARRIVAL OF THIS BOOK, I WAS EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED. IT SEEMED AS THOUGH THE AUTHORS WERE TRYING TO TAKE WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN WRITTEN IN 50 PAGES AND STRETCH IT TO BE ABOUT THE LENGTH OF THE REST OF THE NOVELS IN THE SERIES."
331944,1,"Cheap, Cheap, Cheap",The painted on finish rubbed off on my hands and stained my cloths. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!
331968,1,Percy Jackson and the Olympians: Book 1 The Lightning Thief,WOW! This book was amazing! This book is a rival for the infamous Harry Potter series. I absoloutly LOVED this book. Percy is a cool kid. This series is probably the best I have read in a long time. I would recomend this book series to anyone. By an anonymous fan.
331992,1,DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!,"Ordered the shoes wore them once, the seam ripped open. Called customer service at the company and they sent the wrong size to me. I was leaving for a vacation 2 days later. Spoke with the owner and he begged mne not to write a bad review on the company because it would hurt their business! I said ""SORRY!"" I believe consumers need to know a poor operation and company when there is one. Nice person but a bad business and equally poor quality merchandise."

332094,1,ZZZZZZZZZZZ,"After exhausting my pile of Stephen R. Donaldson and Robert Jordan books, I decided I needed to begin another epic fantasy series to keep me occupied. I ran into Farland's book at the bookstore and decided to try it out.While I admire the ingenuity that Farland put into developing his world's magic, I tripped through the first 277 pages wincing each time I predicted the next string of events. Moreover, sets of unbelievable circumstances occur at just the right places (like when an assassin kills a messenger, who is found by the good guys, dead... and TAHDAH!! though the messenger was important enough to be assassinated by the bad guys, the assassin hadn't bothered to take the message, which gives the good guys a huge advantage.)The characterization is flat and dull. I was at no time convinced that I should really care about what happens to the lead characters. I struggled through the book, waiting for it to get better, but I finally set it down at page 277 and never picked it back up."
332141,1,In a word.....Bad,"With a misleading title like that (and a price like that), this book is bound to disapoint the reader. The most shocking feature of this awful book is the quality of the pictures. There are far better books out there covering the same subject at half the price and 10 times the quality."
332145,1,Agonizingly unreadable,"I have enjoyed Lisa Garnder's other books, and was very much looking forward to this one...to my great disappointment. Aside from the overwrought and completely unrealistic plot, I found none of the characters likeable. It was an exercise in self-torture to actually finish this book."
332178,1,"Who wrote this, really?","Let me begin by saying that I am a big fan of Orson Scott Card. His books are thought-provoking, intelligent, and insightful.This is precisely what leads me to conclude that Card could not have written this book. It's just bad. The author understands little about politics, the media, or even religion. This was written by some right-wing hack who flunked out of the English department at Princeton, and thinks it was because of a liberal conspiracy, rather than because of his lack of ability to write or think.The portrayal of Islam is straight out of the Fox News handbook, and bears no resemblance to the balanced way Card has treated other religious views in his writing. Card's complex understanding of the nature of power (see Ender's Game) is nowhere evidenced in this book. This is much more Ann Coulter than Card."
332197,1,"This CD is not bad, but it still seems a little rusty.","Jennifer Daniels has joined the girl with a guitar club that has become a part of the pop rock music of today. She does have a powerful voice, but at times it tends to overpower the rest of the musical sound. The entire CD mix does not seem to have the feel of a professional finish. It sounds more like they ran out of time and money so they had to go with what they had already recorded. With a little more time to determine what direction she wants her music to go perhaps she will have a better sound. As of now I think there will be those who will enjoy her offbeat melodic sounds and there will be those who will feel that her lyrics and her sound are not their favorite. She is better in concert, so if you are disapointed with the CD sound I recommend seeing her live because then she gets a better mix for her sound."
332243,1,These are great.,"Not the ""thermal"" feel it's claiming. Not terrible socks, but it's more like a towel texture inside. I probably will not buy these again."
332271,1,Give Away,Product is bulky and takes up too much space. I was under the impression that the product opened cans as well as jars. I was wrong. It has already been passed to two other people who don't want it.
332285,1,Toxic!,"I searched high and low for a decent toy piano. When I found this I thought it was perfect. However, as soon as I opened the box, the smell of lacquer took over our foyer area. I didn't even bother taking it out of the box. The smell was so strong that even if I decided to air it out, I wouldn't feel comfortable letting my child play with it and potentially mouth it on a day he were teething."
332350,1,Not the same!,"I have purchased this soap before, and what I received was NOT the creamy white, milky, vanilla coconut soap that I have had before. Instead, what I received was a brown in color soap that in NO way smelled of vanilla coconut. Not even close. Very disappointed."
332355,1,A Great Book to Hand to the Caterer,"This book only makes sense if you are picking out recipes to hand to a caterer you've hired, or give to the kitchen staff should you, like Martha, have one. Otherwise, most of the recipes unique to this book are completely impractical and unrealistic, particularly if you are planning on making quite a few of them to serve at a party.The photos are great to look at and offer good presentation ideas, but too many of the recipes that make the book unique rely on special equipment - deep fryers, mandolines, tartlet pans, etc. and most of the less fussy recipes are ones you no doubt have in any number of other cookbooks.If you are the type who has the time and likes to cut and stack tiny pieces of vegetables to make sushi-roll-sized terrines, or scoop out and stuff grapes with cheese and pistachio nuts, then you will absolutely love this book, but most home cooks who want to retain their sanity will do better to look elsewhere."
332462,1,Boooring,"I am a 37 year old female gamer. My husband bought this game for me for Chistmas. This was an extremely boring game. The levels were pretty much all the same thing. I finished the game within 2 days, and I wasn't playing it every minute. Overall a big waste of money."
332477,1,After a year it died!,One year and one month after I purchased this camera and the LCD screen is full of black and purple lines and everyone in the photos looks jaundice. Bring it to the shop. Am told it will cost $140 and all I get is a 90 day warranty! I could buy a new camera for that amount. Get the camera back and they don't even replace the scratched LCD screen. Nor do I get an explanation of what was wrong with the camera in the first place. I am so mad. Canon is such a rip-off! So I call to complain (AGAIN) and get the total run-around from Canon. I only wish I had the time to go on every camera website and write a review of this company and their crappy products. Buy a Nikon.
332490,1,Unauthorized for a reason...,"The recording is scratchy and blurry. The audio is poor and muffled, rarely factual, full of tabloid crap and pointless information. More about Mark Ronson than Amy. Don't waste your money."
332495,1,Deserves No Stars,"This has to be one the most boring books I have ever read. I cannot believe this was published. The characters just rambled on forever about nothing. The only reason I finished this books is because I paid for this dreary piece of garbage. The sad part is when the child is the best character in the book, this book was a pathetic piece of babbling junk."

332593,1,Bad on every level.,"This film was such a waste of time, not only for me, but I'm sure for all those involved in the making of it. Bad script, bad acting, bad premise, bad bad bad. I'm having a hard time believing I sat thru the whole thing but there is a part of me that has to see how things end, so there you have it.Maybe I'm just not good with fantasy films or perhaps moist maidens, I dunno... but this was just SUCH a laughable, idiotic movie! I can't say enough bad about it. I hope the actors were paid well for suffering through it. I'm usually a big Shamalan fan, but this doesn't even compare to the other films whatsoever."
332621,1,No product in package!,"When I opened the store package, there was nothing it it. The package that it was sent in didn't look like it was tampered with. However, the store package had scotch tape on the sides. There was no product in the store package. Needless to say, I wasn't pleased. I was refunded the full amount approximately 5 days after reporting the problem."

Wait, let me tell you about the system called Lamcube I am going to sell my L-amecube and get a ps2 with games like Metal Gear Solid 2 and Extreme G--G. If any ... there would play ps2 because u people are wimps and can't play Scary Games. PS2 ROCKS"
332803,1,An angry patriot talks,"This book consists of a series of conversations between the journalist Elisabeth Schemla and the Algerian feminist Khalida Messaoudi. The conversations are organized into chapters according to topic. It is most interesting for the general reader when Messaoudi is describing her childhood and education. Later chapters focusing on her political struggles require the reader to have extensive background knowledge of modern Algerian politics in order to make sense of them. The repeated use of abbreviations in the book tends to be rather annoying for readers who aren't familiar with Algerian politics. They are explained in a glossary at the end. If you want an insider's view of Algerian politics of 1980s and 1990s, you must read this book. If you are simply looking for tales of an ordinary woman's life (or even an extraordinary woman's life) in Algeria, you'll need to look elsewhere."
332825,1,"Absolutely Horrible Movie, Bad Acting, Lame Story","I rented this and feel like a sucker. I can't imagine someone actually buying this. Avoid the good reviews as they were no doubt created by anyone of the people listed in the ""credits"" of this movie. One can at least find some unintentional comedy in poor ""B"" movies, but that's not even there. The story is flat and boring all the way through.About the only thing they did invest in with this movie was artwork for the DVD cover. Don't be fooled."
332868,1,outrageously bad edition,"Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 are identical. The book is missing the real Chapter 1, so I feel that it is a big ripoff. The typography is amateurish (typewriter quotes, no real long dashes, a blank line between every paragraph--what is this, a business letter?). This is evidently a publisher that knocks together books that are in the public domain without the least attention to quality. I can't believe they charge so much for so little."
332918,1,"Two stars for good writing, but","who wants to be in this guy's head for a whole book? There isn't much of a thread throughout, just the author's musings. He's a man of a certain generation and will probably appeal to the same. He's mournful, self-absorbed, ranting about things he has no intention of doing anything about -- it used to be attractive to be the bad boy complaining about society, but hey, we've heard it a zillion times. Now do something, share some great idea about how to change things. This is just another lament. You'll like it if you like that. I'm ready to move on."
332936,1,good for a while,"i've scanned over 10k pages with this scanner. all fine. then i all of a sudden cannot scan anymore. it gives me a paper jam error. i've done everything i possibly can do. then i called amazon since i got the extended warranty and they referred me to xerox who hung up on me about 4 times and argued with me EVERY TIME about a ""serial number"" and refused to truly help me. i never got an answer and now own a 1300 dollar clunker, with a useless warranty. tomorrow i'm going to keep calling and try to get an answer because i didn't pay this much to have it tucker out this new. i'm very very very disappointed, mainly in the fact that the warranty from amazon means nothing and that xerox itself is totally unhelpful."
332943,1,Avoid the Kindle Edition,"Don't buy the Kindle edition, you will be disappointed. Footnotes are not linked so you have to manually flip to the location and find each one, requiring (for me) keeping notes of what location the notes are on. The text is left AND right justified, so the spacing between words is widely uneven and distracting, the default font is larger than normal, and there is no control over font-selection, only size.I apologize for rating the book so low because the text is excellent, worth the 5 stars so many reviewers have given it, but I wanted to call attention to the deficiencies of the Kindle version. Buy the paperback."

Other phones set their time automatically from Caller ID info."
332945,1,Not worth the money!,"unacceptable line static...sounds like a record player. I've tried moving the base and remotes all over the house and there is no difference.The speakerphone is also weak. Compared to my old model Uniden Power Max, this one doesn't cut it. The old model had no static whatsover and was a 5.8 ghz also."
333021,1,could've been tighter,"I gave up on Mankell's previous Det. Kurt Wallander ""The Dog of Riga"" because of boredom and could've done the same with ""The White Lioness"" but finished the last audiobook CD too see how it ended. I really wanted to like this book all the way through but the lack of a good editor was overwhelmingly apparent for this reader.I love the way Mankell writes and the way he sets up a story. The plot seems to be overly ambitious and wanders all over the place."
333062,1,Blowing The Chance,"Blankley is one of the suddenly appearing self-proclaimed experts on analyzing the perceived threat from those who claim islam as their religion.Blankley panders to the worst fears of one large non-homogenous group by hyping up the threat posed by another large non-homogenous group.Whatever his motives, if the author's work is taken seriously, we would be blowing the chance to mutually benefit from the rich traditions of the 2 groups that the author pits against each other when what is desperately needed is for both groups to extract the best from each society to grow unless we are eaten from within by parasites like the author of this book who apparently exist among both groups"

333173,1,"serious questions, and no answers","The paintings are technically good, if a bit corny. They are about on the level of velvet paintings from Mexico. That is not a bad thing in and of itself: I wish I could paint that well.The things that really bother me about Akiane are the following:1) There are no photographs or videos showing her composing a painting. We have time lapse shots, but that's it.2) Her parents are the only witnesses; they do not allow anyone to see Akiane painting.3) Her mother is also a painter. Her style is identical to Akiane's.What is the most logical conclusion you can make from the above?"

I put in a pyrex measuring cup with water and the steam made the rack touch the back of the microwave, causing it to arc.Samsung says that PYREX GLASS measuring cups have metal in the paint and therefore I voided my warranty by placing one in the microwave.What kind of a company blames another for their design flaw?The pyrex site lists safe microwave instructions and says nothing about metal in the paint.I'd be willing to testify in court that samsung is saying pyrex contains metal."
333216,1,This book is slander. Please do not promote it.,"The family of Katherine Cross has recently been made aware of this book. No one in the family was contacted or interviewed for this book.

Please do not purchase this book and further encourage the lies about the Cross family while they attempt to have this book removed from publication."
333236,1,Problem after problem,"This program would be great, but you have to figure out how to do it all on your own. Tech support for pinnacle is terrible, and there are no instructions. There is a manual, but it is not very helpful. I kept running into little gliches in the program where I would be working on a project and all of the sudden something would quit working until I shut the program down and restarted it. If there were decent instructions with it and the program would work right every time I used it, I would love it."
333241,1,Cheap Zoom Lever,"Complete disappointment. The camcorder has so many features, but the zoom lever easily popped off and left the lens unable to zoom. Panasonic would not stand by their product and I was unable to get the camera fixed without a substantial fee. After four calls I was unsatisfied and the camera still cannot zoom. At a store I found that the zoom lever easily comes off. Avoid this product. There are too many cheap factors that can ruin the great features. Technical and customer support are useless."
333254,1,Do NOT buy this product!!!,"I used this product approximately 5 times and the ""clutch"" broke...translated the rotary blade in the jar wouldn't spin. I called Cuisinart for a parts replacement, but I had to pay for shipping both ways...they wouldn't send me the part. I decided to reinvest in another blender and chucked this one."
333335,1,Injurious misinformation,"The author is not a practitioner of scientific method, but rather erects a construct to meet his own flawed expectations. This is an assemblage of misconception packaged in a pulp fiction-like, immature construct. It regresses enlightened thinking. For a factual and humanist treatise, consider ""True Selves,"" by Mildred Brown."
333346,1,"Early, Awkward Schulze","""Blackdance"" is an early, clunky Schulze composition that doesn't quite come off. Though Schulze was beginning to find his voice at this point, this album lacks the complexity and ethereal qualities of his later 70's work. The opening track, ""Waves of Changes,"" is primarily 20 minutes of a bongo drum beat with gritty, hollow synth noodling over the top. ""Some Velvet Phasing"" is synth noodling without the bongo drum beat. And the last and longest track, ""Voices of Syn"" features an operatic baritone voice singing a very dark and beautiful melody, but soon dissolves into an almost unlistenable scratchy drum beat for the next 15 minutes. There are parts that Schulze fans will enjoy, especially in the first track, but by and large a dull and dissapointing album."
333399,1,died on second use,"My roommate used this the day after I got it in the mail. I was the second person to use it and it no longer worked. The light wouldn't come on, the plates wouldn't heat up, etc. Thankfully, Amazon had no problem with me returning it. If yours functions, it seems like a good value with the free hair products you get with it."
333434,1,Not useful,"This is a really thin book, not at all the thick teacher's addition and answers to the textbook that I expected. Not worth the purchase."
333504,1,Poor support from vendor,"PM works adequately enough for Windows, but your mileage may vary with Linux partitions. For example, in my case, PM pops up warnings re: my Linux partitions, offers to ""fix"" them, but if you let it, PM instead trashes the partition information. As a result, I've had to reinstall Linux twice -- the second time to verify that it was indeed PM's fault. PowerQuest (the vendor) isn't forthcoming when it comes to acknowledging the bug or plans for a fix.Vote with your wallet."
333638,1,"Right Singer, Wrong Album","If you are interested in this album because you heard the title song on the soundtrack of ""Oceans 12"" you have discovered one of Italy's most loved divas with a career that spans decades and wealth of albums to explore. Unfortunately this album is one that has not aged well. In order to get this song along with more of her great ones, I reccomend ""Le Piu Belle Canzoni Di Ornella Vanoni"" which is a double album and well worth the extra bucks. Ornella is incredible and you've only just begun. Enjoy."
333687,1,Be Cautious,"This is the consumer version of the Nautilus Treadclimber. It's smaller than the Nautilus machine but otherwise very similar.24 Hour Fitness gyms bought a bunch of these a few years back and introduced them with great fanfare.The good news - excellent workout. Far better than treadmills or ellipticals in my experience.The bad news - they were all recalled after most wore out.Nautilus introduced a new improved version. Again - excellent workout. Sadly, again, most wore out.Hopefully someday Nautilus/Bowflex will solve all the problems and release a version 3 that lasts. Till then, given the ""no labor"" and the short hydraulic warranty I'd be very cautious about purchasing one."
333692,1,cannot recommend!!,i started at the beginning with the prey books and have enjoyed the ones i've read so far...not this one...absolutely ridiculous plot and made no sense. it was about a group of old russian spies but there was never any real purpose revealed for their existence.this has to be one of those books that had to be written just to meet a publisher's deadline...what a disappointment.
333697,1,BORING!!!,"I too had the unabridged recorded book. It was a major yawn and I kept thinking when it would ever end. I found myself fast-forwarding through the tapes waiting for Caleb to met-up with Reno, the brother of Willow. Well after fastwarding through many tapes still no meeting with Reno. Unfortunately, I cannot torture myself any longer. The pain must end; therefore, I will not finish this book.Do not waste your money by purchasing this book. Luckily, I got it from the public library."
333706,1,Not Accurate. no customer support,Told to monitor BP at home and DR. recommended HoMedics brand. Bought this item and found my BP was sky high every time. My wife is a nurse so she brought home the real BP cuff and stethoscope from her office. We compared the HoMedic's numbers against her readings and found this model the BPA -100 was 12-20 point higher on the both the top and bottom numbers. Went to the manufactures website for support and found the bare minimal of information.Returned item for refund.
333774,1,Product not as described,"I own another, larger WowPad with which I have been quite happy. Needing a new mousepad for work, I decided upon the slightly smaller version being sold here. To me, the phrase ""8.5 inch diameter"" along with the item picture implied this was a circular mousepad. It was not. The product I received was rectangular and roughly the size of a traditional mousepad. Also, I assumed the tracking surface would have a pattern similar to the photo. Instead, I received a mousepad with an image of Van Gogh's Starry Night - not exactly the image I was hoping to convey next to my multi-monitor setup.Operationally, this product works fine with my Razor DeathAdder mouse, but I was disappointed that the item's shape and surface image were far from how the product was described."
333794,1,Messenger Bag,"I like the bag, but! There are some issues if you are using this to lug around books and a small lap top for school.- the buckles on the sides of the bag roll around, which causes the strap to twist.- I found that due to the flimsines of the bag that trying to get into compartments quicly during my college classes is a struggle.- It's a nice bag, but if your going to put it through the grind of everyday use, it's not what I want. A nice canvas messenger bag is something I will look for."
333913,1,Dissappointed,"I decided to go with the gloves because of the other review. Unfortunately, when I went snowboarding, they did not keep my hands toasty. I found that while I was going down the run I was fine, but my hands were freezing any other time. After about a minute without activity my entire had was cold. It made ski lift rides miserable. I was snowboarding in about 12 F conditions including wind chill. So maybe they are great if you never drop below 20 F."
334041,1,Not firm at all--this should be rated differently,"The pillow is not what I would consider firm. It was a soft pillow without any odor or fragrance. I have used a water pillow for a few years and will probably go back to one, as they are affordable on Amazon. No problems other than the product is not what is advertised."
334051,1,I'll never buy a Maxtor/Seagate product again,Nothing new to add or say about this miserable product that hasn't already been said; the hard drive failed just like everyone else's and there's nothing that can be done.

334116,1,"Avoid if (1) you know C, or (2) you want something thoughtful!","In general, this gets high marks from most reviewers, but I did not like it. I think the reason is that I have been a fairly competent C programmer for many years. So half the book was telling me things I already knew (what is a++ etc). Even worse, the other half had an elementary viewpoint. It was intended to help you rote learn mindlessly.As I read about the language features I did not know, many obvious questions occurred (Why on earth would anyone use this apparently kludgy and inefficient NSNumber class? How does init differ from a C++ constructor?). But there was no intelligent discussion of such issues, you were left to figure it out for yourself.There were also too many minor typos in the code examples."
334139,1,"Horrible, WHY? Read it! ! !","When I got the item I though it could be easy to set it up, but I was wrong. The instructions are so bad that it includes only one paper with no pictures, tools are not numbered or named. I got the picture from the internet, but it was still difficult to figure out which screw was going in which hole. The screws were too big and too small... I had hard time setting it up, It took me almost three <3> hours to set it up.But the bumbells are great.And one star is because i cant put lower then that..."
334162,1,very small and lightweight,"I bought this as a gift and was very disappointed. The packaging was so poor, that it came out of the flimsy box. I had to search among other items I ordered to find it. It was not damaged, though. It is very lightweight and small, so it can't really be used as a paperweight. The only thing positive is that the image of the Jayhawk looks good."
334166,1,Did not last long at all,"My daughter was unhappy with this product. It did not last very long at all...maybe a total of one month. She had to get one size larger for it to fit well. It snagged on the first time wearing it and then by the 20th time of wearing it, she had to throw it away."
334195,1,They should call it ClogMaster 820,"This is a high maintenance printer. I spent more time running head-cleaning cycles and printing test pages than printing pictures. The 1 in 10 prints that actually came out looked great, but it's not worth the hassle. Maybe if you print every day, the ink will remain free-flowing, but printing a dozen pictures every weekend won't do it. The prints from my new Canon look as good, and it never clogs. The epson may save you some money up front, but think about the wasted hours of frustration."
334223,1,disappointed,"Sorry, but this is not what I expected, as it was advertised as cross-over/pop...still a little too heavy opera sounding for me. I prefer clearer voices,less instruments. It left me not yearning for more.After playing it through,it was so bland,I didn't realize it had ended.Sorry,I wanted to like it."
334287,1,"I'd give it ""0 stars"" if that were an option!","Bought NIS 14 days ago. Tomorrow it will no longer work, as every time I try to ""register"" it online, it crashes my computer! (I registered it on the website; however, that did not ""register"" it for updates!) The email response to my plea for help was promised within 24-48 hours -- but never arrived. I then searched for hours before finding a phone number for support -- which comes with a hefty pricetag. While googling for a Norton phone number I came across other horror stories about registration problems (going back several years). So, after 25 years as a dedicated Norton/Symantec user, I am returning this useless piece of junkware to the company that no longer cares."
334331,1,Extremely painful! Don't buy!,"I bought these at a store sale because they looked so cute and I LOVE LOVE shoes. I always wear tall heels too so the height didn't scare me. HOWEVER, these are probably the most uncomfortable wedges/shoes I have ever had. After about 15 minutes, my feet were killing me!! The toe divider is way too thin of a strap without any padding, so it just cuts into your skin. Plus, even though I am used to high shoes, these are somehow made poorly so that your feet definitely put all the weight on your balls, which puts even more pain into the feet and toes. I tried wearing them 2 more times to give them another shot, and again- these were SOOOO uncomfortable. Threw them out."
334378,1,People say you shouldn't judge a book by its cover...,"This is yet another book aimed at the education market for educators who don't seem to understand the very subject that they're teaching. The author does show some understanding of core graphic design concepts early on in the book. Unfortunately I don't feel that the author knows how to actually implement good graphic design. Another really major flaw with the book is that she tries to cover web design and electronic media. Unfortunately it doesn't seem like she has a lot of experience in anything but print. A lot of that content regarding electronic media is just incorrect. Sadly I feel that most people who buy this book won't have a choice, since it's aimed for (crappy) art school curriculums."
334433,1,Don't Buy This Product,"Purchased this product as I have bought several of these in the past few years. After the first use, I hand washed the garment and then hung it up to dry.

334636,1,How can you make a female vampire movie so un-erotic?,"I honestly don't see how it's possible to make a film about a female vampire preying on other women and have it turn out this lame. The plot was confusing enough, but that wouldn't have bothered my had the girl-girl scenes been hotter. Instead we've got one goth girl kind of flirting with this other very attractive girl in a bar, and then there's another disjointed story involving a female vampire engaged in a really weak lesbian scene with another girl. And, of course, they add some guys just to complete the lack of overall eroticism. Clearly, here's an idea for a potentially really good lesbian vampire story that was watered down by a producer or director who didn't care for the whole lesbian-theme and so instead turned it into this unexciting piece of garbage. Two stars for the attractive female casting and brief female nudity."
334689,1,yoga two gether,"Poor production value you can hear the low tone of the vcr tape spinning the whole time, quite distracting. It is hard to follow because the instructor is not great at descibing the actions, and since you have to keep an eye on the screen at all times. Not for beginers because he does not descibe well. It is probably great for experienced yoga praticioners but not beginers as stated. And just a note I will not be bullied into removing this post by the people who made this video like he did to the last person that gave it a negative review, good day."

Software keeps locking up...Internet Extorter won't open when connected to router (works fine when connected to cable modem directly). After much fussing about, got the software to configure and load correctly but requires unplugging network cable from computer first. Also, compared to other router products I've used, the web interface is SLOWWWWWWWW...noticed this device is running WinCE...hmmm.Works ok with win2k, but can't connect my Orinoco Silver (802.11b) to the router (may be a card issue rather than router).Highly recommend investigating other choices from established netoworking companies that don't release beta products!"

334762,1,Enormously Dissapointing,"Pete Conrad had a fairly colorful style about him, part cowboy - part engineer - full time iconoclast. However, these traits do not come thru in this book. The writing does not convey the dynamics of the man, so ultimately it becomes little more than a 'just the facts' biography.While I doubt any astronaut book came come close to capturing the human story of space Michael Collins' ""Carrying The Fire"", this book had a chance since it focused upon one of the truly unique characters in the space program. So am immensely dissapointed at the final product."
334848,1,Incomplete Book,"The book is incomplete the cd-rom that should be part of the book not come. No simulation code is written in the book. All of the examples refer to the cd-rom that doesn't accompany the book, in spite of being suitable that it is part of the same. I sent messages for the author and for the publisher requesting the cd-rom, but I never received answer. If somebody has the codes, favor to send me because I have the need to test them. Don't buy that book, because it is expensive and incomplete."
334854,1,give it a miss,"Lois Meade is the least likeable character to come into British fiction in a long time. She is combative, unfriendly, unappreciative of her mother, and rude to everyone she meets. She is angry all the time and never pleasant to anyone. The mysteries she solves usually turn out to be accidents or natural deaths, and are easy to figure out. The ony reason to read these books is for the interesting village characters around her, but Lois is certainly the least interesting person in the village."
334893,1,The Lie: This book,"Ken Ham simply did not convince me that Evolution is a lie. If anything, he convinced me of the ignorance some people have about the basic concepts in the modern theory of evolution. In the end he's just trying to play to the fears of people who don't want their faith threatened by accepting Evolution as fact.Which confuses me, when many profoundly religious people have begun to see that Evolution is the ""Much more than the theory"", to paraphase a quote of one famous Christian leader.Again, Ham goes on about how the Bible must be considered 100% factual information. Such factual information says it is somehow possible to fit millions of species onto one giant ark that according to the decriptions in the bible, was far too small to fit them.., and yet still had to cary all the food required for them to live...Hard to call people liars when making those claims I should think."
334895,1,what a load of cr@p!!!,"Well, I think all christians will think it's superb. Anything that reinforces their blind faith has got to be good. But as a non-theist person who has examined both viewpoints, I'd say this book is one of the many creation texts out there which fall into the same old straw arguments and don't really convince anyone."
334970,1,A Pathetic Translation,"Having read the original story and bieng a Hindu from birth, I would say this book is a pathetic translation of the original. Obviousely the author has not developed an understanding for the story and niether have any of the people who have reviewed this book"
334975,1,Completely Awful,"I was fully prepared to enjoy this book based on the raves the most of the ""reviewers"" gave it. I kept waiting for the enjoyment to start, but finally gave up 2/3rds of the way through. I found the book so dull, boring, shallow and non-entertaining that I do not feel I can trust what others write. It is obvious that the author spent about 4 days writing it. It was not worth the $6.99 price.Try something by Judith McNaughtSomething Wonderfulor Kathleen WoodiwissThe Wolf and the Doveinstead."
334990,1,If you need a tablet pc this won't do the job!,"Don't kid yourself! What you really want is the HP TX1440 tablet pc. And yes it's going to cost you 100% more. The big ""no deal"" item for the TX1210 was poor character recognition software. Pressing down on the screen and changing the pen to ""medium"" tip did not help. If you really need a tablet pc and you think you are saving money by getting the TX1210 you are probably in for a dispointment."
335001,1,Not as good as I thought,"Okay, I'll admit that apple's iPod is a very nice MP3 player for us mac users...but it had one tremendous flaw. The iPod is terribly fragile, which is not very desirable in a product that's meant for use during activity.My second iPod just broke after falling off my bed and hitting the carpet. The first one broke after falling about [a few] feet from my pocket to the kitchen floor.It would seem to me if one was going to design a sleek product meant for active use, one might want to make it durabe enough to survive the inevitable accidents that will occur. Sure apple will replace it, but how many times would you want to return your iPod for a new one?So yes, its a great MP3 player,..."
335040,1,disapointing antenna,"I am about 23-25 miles from Sears and Handcock towers where chicago tv are broadcast from. A 2nd story bedroom facing east, toward the buildings. The antenna did pick some some additional stations vs the old rabbit ears, but not the main CBS and PBS stations. Plus some of the other ones show and do not show. Talking about the digital stations here. Was expecting a lot more considering it is amplified. Would not recommend it. Intend to try the Terk antenna."
335137,1,Secret Society,"Ok, please tell me why almost EVERYONE would think that this is the BEST book that they have read?!?!?!?!? First of all, it was too much Brand name dropping and then how, just how could these men live like this??? Now this could be a true life of some men out there, but I could not do it. Some of the stuff that was in the book just was not realistic! I'm soooo glad that I read Diary of a Mistress FIRST! B/c if I had read this book first I would have passed on the other two novels that she has wrote...Now Diary of a Mistress was waaaaaaaaaaaay better than this book! I'm so sorry Miasha, please do not write another book like this!"
335166,1,Bizarre non-intuitive design,"This phone performs most of the functions that I wanted, but has some puzzling design flaws.#1 annoyance: instead of clear labels like ""hold,"" ""mute,"" etc., the buttons on this phone have bizarre graphic symbols that look like the international biohazard marker. The only words above the buttons are ""answer on/off,"" ""do not disturb,"" ""find handset,"" and ""flash."" Consequently, no one in my house could figure out how to perform simple functions such as playing and deleting messages until I looked in the manual. And the keys they chose for these things are ridiculously non-intuitive. For example, ""mute"" is assigned to the ""find handset"" key! Of course, I always think ""find handset"" when I want to mute the phone!And I can't for the life of me figure out why they put a mute function on the base station, BUT NOT THE HANDSET. Hello, what is it that people actually TALK into?So other than the fact that this phone is a badly designed piece of junk, it's just great."
335325,1,Feel cheated again,"I have been reading Nora Roberts for several years; loved most every word. But I am so disappointed when I find myself paying top price for a book which was written years ago. In most cases, the author has vastly improved her writing and this is true of many of my favorites who are also choosing to pull some oldies out of the closet and sell them again. I dislike having to look for published date in a book when I buy one. Oldies belong in a discount shelf where you can choose to read them again for half price. Even so, I read every single word and it finished up beautifully.signed....Ms. Cheapie"
335328,1,COMPLETELY HORRIBLE DVD TRANSFER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"I used to rent THE MILPITAS MONSTER on a top-notch 1980's VHS tape in anold video rental store years ago every time!It was one of my all-time favorites!Sadly,with this DVD release version of the film there was nocare taken AT ALL TO RESTORE IT!Even worse,the voices don't even matchthe mouths when the characters are speaking,as if the film was some sortof horribly English-dubbed foreign film!And also,the DVD is completelylacking of any SPECIAL FEATURES whatsoever!At least the 1980's VHS tapewas the first video back then to ACTUALLY include the film's originalTHEATRICAL TRAILER!!!!!!!!!!!!I hope this review was helpful."
335362,1,this book should be cheaper...some people pay that price.,I think that they should go down on the price of this book. No many people can afford that price for a book.
335405,1,Poor recording quality,"This is a poorly done album. Buckethead jams on guitar and bass with a phenominal keyboardist and simple, methodical drummer on a bunch of tracks. Likely done in one to two takes each with little or no mastering. The tracks are then titled so that one would think the album had a point. If you want a backlog of buckethead material, this album will give you that. He still is certainly no slouch on guitar and that will be shown on this album. A bit more on the bluesy side than metal. No speed metal at all. I don't feel bad for owning it, but I wouldn't have bought it if I knew what was on it before hand. Worth about five dollars. Then I'd buy it."
335498,1,USA Rocks! China Sucks!,"There, now that you understand the author's perspective, you can go on to read something useful or at least entertaining.I cringe to think what a Chinese person would think of this ignorant nonsense."
335543,1,Video card problems,"I really loved the Shogun games, and Medieval looks like it could be a major time sucker. However, I'm running a 2-year-old Windows 98 machine with an integrated Intel video card, and this game won't run on it, even though every other game I own works fine, including recent graphics-heavy titles like Freedom Force ..."
335572,1,Another middle of the road pop singer from the 50's,"Another talentless hack like Patti Page and Teresa Brewer, a middle of the road pop singer... if you want to hear a good vocalist from the 50's try June Christy or Chris Connor, but for gosh sakes stay away from Jaye P Morgan."
335654,1,Do these people have the same soundtrack I do?,"I bought this soundtrack on the strength all the 5 star recomendations here. After eagerly opening the CD and listening to it, I can't believe we're hearing the same CD! Most of the tracks are bland, pretty much generic Hollywood stuff. Just the occasional traditional bagpipe or drum to remind you that this is the Braveheart soundtrack. Sure, I enjoyed the movie, but this CD is far too overrated!"
335669,1,Fun...for a while....,"The product produces an ""ah""...for a few seconds, but it has no sustaining excitement for a toddler. I wouldn't rate it as educational... however, it is a cheap thrill."
335678,1,Disappointing,"I was looking forward to this book, because I enjoyed ""A Belated Bride"" so much. Unfortunately, this book has too much frustration and anger, and not enough humour to make it an enjoyable read."
335682,1,Didn't work for me,I ended up having to return this fan as it was too noisy. The speeds did not adjust low enough and it never ossilated properly.
335713,1,Disappointing book from a great author,"I'm a major fan of Lasky's and was looking forward to reading this book, which had come highly recommended. It was a big disappointment. Two-dimensional characters; stilted, artificial language; cliché situations; and worst of all, a preachy tone destroyed the message for me. And I'm someone who agrees with her message; I'm strongly against censorship of all sorts. But Harper's path was too clear-cut for her. If one of the people from the so-called ""religious right"" had been the least bit sympathetic, or if Gray had shown some human resentment at being the brunt of her anger, or if one of her parents had tried a little bit to understand her, it would have made her choice much more difficult and painful, and ultimately, more important."
335730,1,Not quality...,"These black ballet flats were cute when they first came, but within a week they were scuffed and scratched. Very uncomfortable and illfitting - they slouched at the heel. The ""ribbon"" on the front snapped off when I stepped on it. They didn't even last for a month of wear, and they never had the cute ballet flat shape. Not even worth $20..."
335872,1,NOT FOR LARGE FLAT SCREENS!!!,"This product had the description that said it would fit flat screen TV's up to 46"", when in reality, it should only be for small TV's. The holes on the back of my TV were set too far apart for this mount because it is a 42"" and needs a more supportive wall mount. We ended up sending it back because it just wouldn't fit. The description shouldn't say it will fit most TV's up to 46"" when there's no way it can. The mount felt too lightweight to hold up my 42"". Would only be good for small TV's!!! The only redeeming aspect of this mount is that it came with all of the hardware separated out into individual packages, very clearly labeled! That would make installation much faster and more accurate. Don't waste your time or your money if you have a large flat screen!"
335907,1,Dead out of the Box,Had to send it back. Was not able to be programmed out of the box.So....Dead out of the box.
335947,1,Handles may be scratched and discolored,"I purchased the 5 piece set which is a nice combination. However, the handles were marred and discolored. I sent them back and got another set with the same problem. I have since visited many retail stores and seen the same problem. I contacted Henkels and they told me that they were aware of the problem and to try rubbing some oil on them. I did which darken them up but did nothing to the scratches.The blades are excellent, however the 5-star handles have issues. Just check them out carefully before you buy."
335965,1,This book was terrible enough for me to write a review on it.,"The Broom of the System left me sad, angry, and a little more than confused. Any book capable of drawing such strong emotions in me is worth more than one star, which is why I gave it two. Beautiful writing and language that leads from nothing to nowhere in a somewhat hefty 467 pages.They cheat and lie in too many ways and are all products of misunderstanding.This entire book is a big misunderstanding, I highly recommend against it."
336075,1,Hello Frisco Hello,"This is a wonderful movie, I love this movie, if you like mucicals you've got to have this one. 1943, but its truly a classic. I saw it on T.V. and I just had to have it and you will too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
336093,1,CAUTION! Think twice befreo buying from this company!,"I just purchased this pillow and after using it several nights found that I slide down the pillow so far that I do not remain elevated. This pillow and the extra pillow case I ordered was $100.00 +. I feel like I have been taken to the cleaners, because they do not take ""returned"" items.So, think twice before you purchase from this company!"
336096,1,Way too much static,There was way too much interference. We disconnected EVERY electronic and phone device in the house and still could not get a picture without static. Refunds were handled promptly.
336169,1,Chick Lit,"Some women might term this a horror novel due to subject matter; at fifty, Lu expects The Change, not all the changes she finds herself facing. Her new editor is a snide, condescending, not sweet young thing; her husband wants to trade her in, and one night of passion results in a baby. Abortion is never even considered as Lu handles all her challenges and changes with aplomb and humor. Her experiences bring new love and new chances to help others facing difficulties. Through it all, she laughs to keep from crying, giving new definition to the term midlife crisis."
336218,1,Painful,I so wanted this to be good. In many ways this was as bad as the live action DND movie. Very sorry to have to say I was disappointed.
336224,1,0 stars an option?,"If 0 stars were an option that's what this DVD would get. I preordered the DVD when I first heard about it, and was expecting an at least passable effort by the production crew, but it was awful.I won't go in to details, as many, many of the other reviews here will point out the problems. Just know this is the first DVD I threw away after watching..."
336278,1,Rocking but not rolling,Guitar Wolf makes me want to run away and cry in my mom's stomache where I came from. I am an ustable man.
336303,1,Would give it 0 stars if I could!,"Like the other reviewers have said, this new formula is absolutely horrible! I have very sensitive facial skin and have been using this product for many years as this was the only moisturizer that would help. Now this ""New More Sustainable"" formula is chalky, rough and does anything but moisturize your skin. If you like feeling like you have a layer of mud on your face all day then this is the product for you, otherwise steer clear until Avalon Organics gets the point and re-releases the old formula.I went to Avalon Organics website and filed a complaint about the new formula and am still awaiting a reply. Maybe if they hear it from enough people and their sales decline enough they will go back to the way the product was before."
336391,1,NOT HAPPY WITH IT,It Has Plastic Clips That Hold The Bars On Before I Went To Use It One Already Broke. Dogs can Break It And Get Out So Easy. Why In The Heck didnt it Have Metal Clips. TO CHEAPLY MADE. I Have German Shepherds Not CHIHUAHUA's DO NOT LIKE..
336417,1,Horrible,"Channel A does not work on my switchbox, nor does it work on my friends, you will get either Red only, Green only, or Blue only depending on the random one you get. Horrible ghost image. Tried using it for my x-box to my monitor and TV but was so bad couldn't use it. My friends ghost image was not as horrid but still was there. Could have returned but too lazy to :), don't suggest getting"
336443,1,Markers arrived with two dried out,"Two of the markers were completely dried out when they arrived. It's hardly worth returning a package of markers, but my daughter is an art nut and she was really disappointed that 2 of the 5 were unusable."
336544,1,Slow and Confusing,"The 1st Maxim book (Haven) that I read was 1st class. Unfortunately, Maxim was a complete waste of my time. Slow, boring, confusing and unbelievable A big disappointment"
336587,1,DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS SELLER!,"Disregard the one star!! AMAZON won't let me give zero stars. I should have read the previous reviews as AMAZON should have before I placed the order. PETITCOLLECTIBLES should not be allowed to advertise their products through AMAZON. Especially with the numerous complaints lodged. I ordered the product for Father's Day delivery; the tracking number was fake and the delivery date was a joke. Now, of course AMAZON will not get involved until the delivery date has passed which turned into almost a month. PETITCOLLECTIBLES did not reply to 6 different email requests for communication, tracking number, and the product. What does it take, AMAZON, to shut them out so your customers don't attach their pitful reputation to yours?"
336590,1,overmike,"The balance between singers and orchestra is not true. In an operatic stage, the singers should be almost drown out by the gigantic orchestra. That makes it so much more exciting.Other than that, the singers are great.But I think the conducting is overkill, and the sound not natural sounding."
336598,1,stealth ati 9250,I bought this card a few years ago thinking it would dramatically improve my PC games. UH no it doesn't. It seems to have problems with even games made 6 years ago. Pay the extra money and get a better card.
336665,1,Won't hold air,I ordered 6 balls for my girls' U12 team to replace some that I bought 4 years ago that were starting to show some wear. They took over a week to get here which is unusualy slow. I have one that will not hold air for even one night. The rest have to be inflated every week. 2 of the leaks are at the valve. I would recommend staying away from this ball. The balls that lasted 4 years are all made by Baden
336701,1,wrong dvd,"we ordered both vol. 3 and vol. 4 of the AccelerRacers.although the packaging on both the case and disk of vol. 3 said it was Breaking Point, the actual movie was Ultimate Race which is vol. 4. My son did not let me know this before it was past time to return the product , so we are stuck with 2 copies of vol. 4.check your copy when you receive it to make sure it is the correct volume."
336763,1,"Bought on a whim, glad it was cheap","My buddy & I got this movie after we found a cheap copy at a CD store... It was pretty enjoyable, but more for laughs than anything. The acting was corny and the plot was horribly incoherent. Great special effects for the time, though... not to mention the creative gore scenerios. I particularly enjoyed the scene with the little girl's head exploding."
336836,1,DO NOT PURCHASE COBYPRODUCTS!!!,"coby products are disposable and not even worth the investment as such. Buyer'S Beware purchasing coby products will certainly lead to Buyer's Remorse!!! cheaply made, they fall apart almost upon arrival. that's everything from walkmans to full system stereo. there is no workmanship put into any of the crap."
336839,1,DO NOT BUY ANY COBY PRODUCTS,I bought this cd/tape player 45 days ago from Amazon and it seems like the product is not working properly. I have lost 2 audio tapes already as it got stucked inside while playing. I called the Coby company for an exchange or fix. They advised me to send them Money order of $12.00 for shipping charge. It does not make any sense as I have alredy spent $29.00 to buy this item. Their customer sevice is not good and it seems like they don't care. I would suggest anyone to aovid Cobby products.
337001,1,Metallic taste and odor!,"I'm surprised that other reviewers find this product acceptable. The bottles left a terrible metallic taste and odor in the water. Even after multiple washings with soap as well as vinegar, the bad taste and odor were there. I even tried putting bottled water in them...just to see if it was my city's tap water that was leaving the metallic taste. It didn't matter. They were unusable and I returned them. Try Klean Kanteens--they are a little more expensive but better quality and, best of all, don't taint the taste of your water!"
337054,1,"Two stars for the quickstart, the only thing of value","A bloated piece of junk.If you want crossbrowser compatability, don't buy FrontPage. p. 462 ""The bottom line on DHTML effects: they only work with Microsoft's browser. TIP: The DHTML effects are controlled by an included JavaScript file called animate.js. You can also edit this file to deal with the Netscape browser.""Isn't that why I bought the *(*$&$#* book! GIVE ME SOMETHING I CAN ACTUALLY USE!If you want ASP, don't look here either. Chapter 18 refers you to ""a later chapter"", chapter 21 refers you back to 18 and ""a later chapter"" that I couldn't find, I think I was just too annoyed to search.I am so disappointed with this book (and the limitations Micro$oft imposed on FrontPage) that I'll probably dump FrontPage altogether and get DreamWeaver instead."
337065,1,WARNING! Examples are incorrect,"WARNING!!!I found this book to be very well written and appeared to be carefully put together.That is until I got to Chapter 6 in which I found glaring mistakes. Case in point, the description of the bull put spread is written such that the author has used different strike prices throughout his example, resulting in an unreadable, confusing mess.This is unfortunate as I think that if the author or his publisher had taken the time to proof the book, these examples should have been corrected.Save your money and find another book to use as an introduction to options trading."
337158,1,Printer Ink,"It does NOT work..I have tried everything..I did take the strips off, did an alignment, and then print.( did this 3-4 times)..still the printing is so faint"
337212,1,"Disappointed: nice features, but not sturdy","The easy-to-set alarm deserves high praise. Just turn the bezel (the rotating ring around the face) and easily set the alarm to go off within a one-hour or 12-hour timeframe. I wish other manufacturers offered something similar, because I've lost confidence in Timex quality. Within a year of owning the watch, the bezel fell off after a minor bump. I was able to snap it back on, but it no longer turned smoothly and the bezel began to fall off on a regular basis. Eventually it fell off without my noticing and was lost. Since others appear to have had the same experience, I cannot recommend the watch."
337218,1,Unhappy with this one.,"Reading a fairy tale within the pages of a novel just doesn't work for me. Also, the main character was not likeable.I didn't care about anyone in this book and although the author seemed to be using the fairy tale written by the main character's mother as a means to pull the reader in, for me, the method failed and the ""mystery"" was not very intriguing."
337238,1,Piece of crap,"When I opened the box to this I realized I'd bought a piece of crap. It's by far the worst feeder I've bought. It broke on the first fill, spilling seed all over my patio. Stay FAR away."
337261,1,Must be designed for an old version of the iPod,I got this unit and the hole for the headphone is in the center top of the iPod in stead of the right side top. The picture shows it but I did not notice it until I got the unit in. You can punch a hole in the right place but it compromises the water tightness of the armband which is part of the reason you would use it. I got it for my son and am not sure he has ever used it.
337404,1,What is a personal relationship with God?,"I have nothing against the product that I was sent. It is fine, except that it wasn't what I thought it was. I ordered 3 of these from 3 different sellers. All came quickly and in good condition. I thought I was ordering a Bible study booklet of the same name with questions and comments. The booklets that came were more like pamphlets. They just gave information. I was annoyed that I got charged about $4.00 for shipping when the actual cost to mail one little pamphlet was probably less than $1.00. Buyer beware -- make sure the item you are looking at is the one you want. The booklet and the Bible study guide is from the same author/publishers and the titles were exactly the same, so they were easy to mix up. Considering I had ordered one each from 3 different sellers, I kept the pamphlets to try to use them in the future. It would be too much trouble to return them."
337424,1,Doesn't keep your hair dry.,I wish I could return this item but bought it through swim2000. Stick with the basic speedo silicon cap.
337453,1,I chose to waste my money,"Having seen Mr. Thomas-El's name is the local paper, I thought that I would purchase his book. Big mistake. Could Mr. Thomas-El have tooted his own horn any louder? What makes his story so very different from thousands of other African-American men? Poor,raised by a single parent, absentee father, first family member to graduate from college, blah, blah, blah. I'm not hating on the brother but I still wonder why he felt the need to share."
337547,1,Major Inacuracies,"This book was written during the VS.NET beta 2 timeframe, and there are several major inaccuracies and some outdated content. This book was a disappointment."
337578,1,under counter junk,Never could get good reception no matter where we placed this in the kitchen. Just last week the CD player quit working. It actually just spins and spins forever initializing the CD. Save your money and buy a different brand/model.
337600,1,light under a bushel,"On one hand, this CD has a warm, hypnotic, romantic quality.One the other, this guy has, I believe a real talent, but he's hiding his light under a bushel, or more specifically under schlocky strings, syrupy arrangements, and bass equalized up way too high. He has, maybe,the sound, soul (and looks) of a young Chet Baker, (listen to Funny Valentine) but he really needs to get away from these Jazz-Lite Columbia arrangements.Like to hear him with a quartet! Let's hear what he can really do!Who knows, maybe the future will be Jazz-lite. Or maybe Jazz-lite will, ultimately, bring new listeners to Jazz."
337640,1,"Ugh...Thank the gods, that the 80's are over...","I don't why I liked this show as a teenager in the 80's. It makes a complete mockery of the Legend of Zelda franchise. WHY DID NINTENDO APPROVE OF THIS??? Never in all of Legend of Zelda gaming history has Link expressed ANY romantic interest in Zelda, WHATSOEVER. Also I'm looking at the front of the box cover to this DVD set right now...why does Link has light brown hair and a stern expression on his face? In other words, looking almost like the REAL Link? In the cartoon series, the fake Link (I'm calling him fake) had dark, black hair and most of the time a goofy, surfer dude expression on that mug of his. Guess they really want to sell this DVD set, so make the front box cover look almost like the real Link. Ugh...I hate the 80's now more than ever, thinking about this cartoon. 80's...R.I.P. (or not. LOL)"
337669,1,Crap compilation,"I admit, the songs are decent, but the remixing of the songs suck.Smells Like Teen Spirit has too much bass, for example.Anyway, you should buy the albums rather than compilations."
337683,1,previous review,"Well, I'm not sure what happened to my previous review concerning my opinion of this book. I can only guess that the folks at G.A. Sullivan cried loud enough to get it removed. However, I continue to stand by my assessment that this books SMELLS, and not like roses.From the title, I was expecting a book that covered design and implementation methods in depth. However, I was left with a feeling that the book was written more to pat themselves on the back."
337692,1,Confusing...,"Well meant summary of the author's ideas on econ growth. However, I guess he tried deliberately to exclude any mathematical equations. But then he covers econometric models. How is that going to work? Some sentences sound like this: ""The XYZ factor is the coefficient of the product of the sums of the logarithms of the ABC inputs."" It forces the reader to try to decipher the language and to write down the equation himself. I put the book down after 4 chapters and will look for alternatives. I am a quantitatively trained derivatives trader who wanted to self-educate himself on economics, but not with hardcore econ textbooks. Obviously, this book was the wrong choice, and I will now look for a more technical version. It is a book for graduate economics students who know the equations already, and who want a (biased) summary of the current literature regarding these growth models."
337751,1,"SIMPLY, THE WORST KIM KI-DUK FILM EVER...!","THIS FILM IS AS DISGUSTING AS IT IS MEANINGLESS AND CRUEL, WITHOUT ANYPURPOSE..!I AM SURPRISED KI DUK DEBASED HIMSELF TO MAKE SUCH A PIECE OF TRASH.!!IF HE'S TRYING TO SHOW RESENTMENT, WANTONNESS, DEBAUCHERY, LECHERY, PROFLIGACY OR INSANITY, HE FAILS TO CONVEY A MESSAGE BY MEANS OF WHIMSICAL, RUTHLESS AND CRUDE SCENES OR TAKES DURING THE FILM.DOES NOT DESERVE ONE STAR...!!"
337776,1,Unbelievably Bad Book,"This book is one of the best examples of very bad writing and editing mixed with flat-out inconsistencies and falsehoods.When I showed this book to my ISC2 CISSP Prep Class, several people had the same opinion (including the ISC2 instructor).This book will confuse and frustrate any CISSP candidate who does not have an MCSE, CCNA or other techie certification. The CISSP certification is slowly migrating away from ""pure"" technical knowledge to more ""professional"" knowledge. This said, the now-infamous ""Blue Book"" has been shelved and remembered as an example of everything that is wrong with the information protection professional certification."
337841,1,horrid,"incorrect pictures, lack of filenames (""drag the main project movie file from the CD-ROM onto your desktop"" - there is no file called anything similar so you have to guess), dead end instructions, lack of explanations or results. And that's just in the first session. Some of it you can go back and learn on your own by realizing their mistakes, but most of the omissions and errors are beyond correction. i've been banging my head on my desk trying to determine what i've done wrong, and figured i'd come to amazon to see what the reviews of the book were like. Glad to see i'm not alone. i've never given a book review before but had to save other starving artists like myself from wasting their money. This book is absolutely terrible."
337866,1,Stick to the plot,"What started out as a good mystery soon turned into a boring soap opera. I really enjoyed the initial scenes with the crime and investigation, but then the author transgressed into boring characterizations which had nothing to do with the story. It got slower and slower until I put it down."
337901,1,Disgusting waste of money!,"The back of the box shows color screen shots, but this DVD is black and white. Are you friggin' kidding me?? After the beautiful Live Evolution they put out this CRAP? There is no 5.1 audio (the back of the box says there is but there isn't). Can you say FALSE ADVERTISING???The song selection is also very poor, could have had at least 3-4 more tracks that were performed on that tour. The only reason I gave this piece of garbage 2 stars instead of 1 is because I am a huge Queensrche fan. Don't believe me? Check out my other reviews of their stuff.Bottom Line: If you liked and enjoyed Live Evolution, do yourself a favor and do NOT waste your money on this nonsense.A MAJOR LETDOWN from Queensrche."
337902,1,Buyer Beware!,I bought a factory refurbished IBM Thinkpad T23 from another on-line retailer and it worked great. The IBM Thinkpad T23 that I bought from a seller on amazon.com has a bad harddrive. I sent the seller an e-mail message to let him know that the IBM Thinkpad T23 that he sold me has a bad harddrive. I was not requesting my money back from the seller since I waited too long to request a refund from him. I just wanted the seller to know to stop selling refurbished laptop computers as they quite possibly have defective harddrives in them. I even went as far as to let the seller know that I am not mad at him as he may not have known there was a bad harddrive in the laptop he sold me. I never heard back from the seller and to me that is just plain rude. I would never buy a refurbished computer off of amazon.com or any other website as I don't want to take a chance on buying another bad computer.
337934,1,fun size (not in a good way),"I thought it was gonna be a taaaad bigger.I can literally close my fist with this ""book"" inside.Taking ""pocket size"" to a whole other level... well done. Not."
337993,1,Boring,"I was expecting the new British call girl movie. But I watched it anyways and it was slow and not very engaging. Also not any nudity. Which was the reason I wanted this movie. Maybe the time frame the movie was set in and the stereotypes of the film were good at the time it was made, but didn't work for the 200's"
338006,1,Wrong adapter for time tracker,This adapter DOES NOT work with the time tracker. I removed the batteries before trying the adapter and the unit seemed to be getting some power but none of the functions worked correctly.
338017,1,Too expensive if you smoke,"I bought the air filter for my smoking, to clean the air.I figured it would at least last 2 months. But it only lasts for about a month and at $12.00 a piece, it gets expensive to keep replacing the filters.These are smaller, maybe 4X4 filters and I think they are over priced especially since they don't last longer.They should be priced lower but I suppose they were made for non smokers."
338031,1,does not work with 1 GB card,"works fine on 128K card, does not work with a 1 GB card. There are no driver updates available."
338093,1,What a rip-off...won't work with a computer older than 1 yr,"There is no way to tell if this product is compatible with your graphics card. The software installs in about 30 minutes...and then you get an error that it will not work with your graphics card. We had the required equipment and it still did not run! We were not alone...many friends had the same experience. No one will refund or take back the software...STAY WITH RCT2!!!We downloaded latest graphics drivers, DirectX and still no better....I want my money back"
338128,1,C:31:23 error,I've been getting the C:31:23 error message on CCD-TRV36 model. Bought this unit four years ago and used it rarely (max 60hrs). I have contact SONY several times. The off-shore tech support suggest I spend $200 and send this to Sony and they will fix it for me (all labor and no parts needed!) They probably have an easy fix for it and are not willing to post it on their web site. Why should they when they can make $200! I told tech support I can buy a brand new digital one for $350 and it will defiantly not be a Sony brand. I have put in brand new Sony tape and brand new rechargeable battery and it did not fix this issue.
338184,1,Stay Away!!,"While the product probably worked great when new, the retailer warehousedeals that sells ""refurbished products"" never took the time to ensure it's proper functioning. The battery would not hold more then a 2 minute charge."
338239,1,Does not conform to any actual practice. Harmful.,"If your goal is to prepare effectively and efficiently for legal practice, do not use this book. Not a soul actually uses the CREAC formula advocated here, and all you end up doing is unlearning terrible habits you were made to acquire during your first year. Use Aldisert or Neumann instead. The techniques taught in those books conform to real practice, and you will look much more competent and professional if you use them than if you do anything this book advises you to do. If you are not a captive audience, avoid this book at all costs. If you are made to use it in your first year skills course, take CREAC with a grain of salt and be prepared to fix the damage during your first summer job. The technique advocated by this book is simplistic, plodding, and simply does not begin to meet even minimal standards of professional legal writing."
338261,1,"Save you money, remastered edition coming out in June, 2001.","For those of you thinking about getting this set, save your money. This boxed set was rushed and poorly done. The new remastered editions come out in June 2001."
338265,1,NOT GOOD IN MY BOOK HERES WHY!,"I BOUGHT THIS MARCH 3RD, USED IT TWICE, WENT TO CHARGE IT, AND IT WONT TAKE A CHARGE!I CALLED CUSTOMER SERVICE, THEY ARE ALL INDIAN, AND YOU CANT UNDERSTAND ANYTHING THEY SAY.ANYWAY THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD SEND ME A NEW CHARGER, THAT WAS 4 WEEKS AGO, I HAVE CALLED 4 TIMES, THEY NOW TELL ME THEY DONT KNOW WHEN THEY WILL GET CHARGERS IN!I AM AN ENGINEER, SO I GOT OUT MY TICK TRACER AND ITS SHOWING THERES CURRENT FROM THE CHARGER TO THE VACUUM, SO WHEN I TOLD THEM THIS, THEY SAID THAT IF THE CHARGER (WHICH THEY DONT KNOW WHEN THEY WILL GET) DOESNT WORK THEN CALL THEM AGAIN!THEY ALSO TRIED TO MAKE ME PAY FOR A NEW CHARGER!I WOULD NOT RECCOMEND THIS UNIT TO MY WORST ENEMY.CUSTOMER SERVICE STINKS, AND SO DO THIER REPS.JUST WARNING YOU ALL, BECAUSE I BOUGHT THIS DUE TO ALL THE ""SHINNING REVIEWS"" ITS NOT WORTH IT IF IT DOESNT WORK."
338303,1,Short Lived,"I bought the Dirt Devil 15.6v cordless EXTREME Power. The power was great, the unit looked great, the suction was great all for about a total of one month. After each charge the battery in my unit got weaker and weaker. Finally the entire unit just died. I could understand this unit expiring if I used the vacuum everyday for several minutes at a time however I only used this unit about twice a month and only for 1 or 2 minutes. I've only had to empty the canister once since I have owned it. The unit and the filter still look brand new but I have EXTREME disappointment in the longevity of this product. It is possible that I purchased a LEMON and it is possible that this is the exception not the rule. However I have notified Dirt Devil Customer Service about my problem and if they do make things right(which I doubt) I will be happy to write another review to at least let everyone know that they stick by their products and take care of their disappointed customers. The Colonel"
338318,1,just a nice diary,"Small books about Lemare's impressions... He wrote down his troubles, afraid and reminds always in fight with the his living time... collegues, family and organs. Sometime those lines are actual because every musicians, organists, composers found thousand difficulties concerning life and others. Lemare write down a small notes about his feelings concerning materials.. just impressions not else."
338405,1,Flo N Go 08339 SuperFlo Pump,I used the Flo N Go 08339 SuperFlo Pump exactly 3 times before it fell apart! I was putting it away after filling the tank on my boat when the handle fell off in my hand. It was never dropped or handled roughly. I will look for anew gas can manufactured by another company before wasting any more of my money with this company!
338434,1,Uninspired at best,"One of the very first novels I read was Coma by the same author. And I loved it. I even got my sister hooked on him. However, I have to agree with many of the reviews on this list. My biggest complaint about this book is how fake the dialogue is between the characters. The action sequences (or lack thereof) slightly builds and never finishes. The psychological aspects of what the characters had to go through don't have any realism. Sad to say that although this book is very simply written and easy to understand and follow, it contains a rather predictable plot. Moreover, cloning has such broad implications that to waste it by focusing on the Wingate clinic and its facilities and security system is shameful.I really hope the next novel I read by this author doesn't fall into the same pitfalls this one does."
338502,1,Broken Plastic,Just like the other reviews i received the tag plate covers and one of the two i received was cracked and broken. I should have listen to the reviews but wanted to try it out anyway for the price. Only good thing is received the item on time. I wouldn't recommand this item to anyone its very cheaply made.
338535,1,Completely stopped working less than 2 months after purchase.,"This is a fake CHI!!! After it stopped working, I contacted the Farouk company. I was told that it was not a real CHI product, therefore they couldn't help me! Buyer BEWARE!!!"
338540,1,Not Satisfied,The problem is that I have actually had a Chi straightener before that was stolen so I decided to purchase this one online because of the price. It is not the same. It doesn't get nearly as hot as my original Chi. It just seems so cheaply made. It pulled my hair and did not work to straighten it. I was very unhappy and needless to say I had to purchase a new straightener.
338568,1,VERY Disappointing!,"I'm 99% sure that I purchased a knock-off ""chi"" flat iron. When I received it, I found that the cord connection was faulty, but I thought it may be a new safety feature - that the iron shut off automatically when the cord spun around (in case it fell off of a countertop onto the floor, for instance). This problem has gotten progressively worse and now it's hard to find a single cord position where the iron will stay ""on."" It takes me twice as long as it should to straighten my hair because the iron turns off in the middle of each stroke. I've only had this iron for three months - my last chi lasted for almost 5 years. In addition, the ""chi"" label on the iron is scratching off. I would NOT buy this again. VERY disappointing."
338615,1,Save some cash and just put 50 cents in a gum machine!,"My daughter purchased the OTHER Labyrinth necklace from Dan's Jewelry, and after waiting almost a month on the item I was very disappointed. It was shiny in the picture I saw, but the pendant that arrived was of dull sheen and contained many flaws--scratches, indentations, miscolorings. Overall, the piece was of gumball machine quality. My daughter still liked the necklace, but she loves gumball machine jewelry. You should save the $9 plus shipping if you are expecting more."
338663,1,No support or warranty from manufacturer,"I thought this was a good quality product, seeing as how it cost so much, but it broke after my daughter used it for a month, after which time it was too late to return. The manufacturer will only repair or replace it if it is sold through a professional salon. So, even though you buy it through Amazon, a respectable place to buy things, you won't get any support for it after 30 days. You won't find this out until you read the pamphlet that comes with the iron."
338712,1,"Not bad--but not great, either","I found this book to be interesting in that the author addresses numerous issues that most writers would not dare to address in terms of African American race intra-relations. Unfortunately, she does a poor job with analyses about her own self-perceptions and choices she made in terms of dating and close relationships. It's evident that she grappled with how she fit in the broad scheme of things (i.e., the BLSA at HLS, other African Americans in the Air Force, etc.), but the book offers little closure on these issues, really. I would recommend that the author take notes from ""White is a state of mind"", by Melba Patillo Beals. This author fully addressed her choice to marry a white man, internal struggles with regard to relationships in general and men in particular, and choices she made throughout her life as it related to her career, etc. I really enjoy memoirs overall, but Dickerson left me hanging."
338886,1,Shameful,"Just from simply listening to the samples i know this album is lame. It sounds like they got someone's grandma to try to remake these songs. They could have at least gotten popular artist to remake the songs since its a TRIBUTE. This is just another ploy to use this woman's death to make money i.e. the promotion of Queen of the Damned. This is a good album to have if you want to get a good laugh otherwise, it's jus [sad]."
338888,1,A Tribute...That's not it.,"This is a sad excuse for any type of album, but most of all a tribute. First off the songs are supposed to be performed by ""Various Artists"" there is only one ""vocalist"" and she sounds bad. I am completely disappointed. Granted Aaliyah wasn't the best vocalist herself, but at least she could carry a tune. This woman sounds tone deaf. She has no style, no delivery, face it she has no talent (at least not for singing). The only reason I would by this would be to make me laugh when I'm depressed."
338922,1,Beaters wobble,"Mixer looks good, has a good slow speed and priced well - BUT one beater wobbled. Amazon promptly replaced the mixer but the replacement had 2 wobbling beaters and no dough hooks!!Time for a refund."
338923,1,Disappointed,It was very disappointing when my daughter opened the package and found two sets of dough hooks and no beaters! I hadn't kept the packaging it came in and now don't know what to do. It's obviously a factory error.
338961,1,Not happy,"This fan is too big I don't think that anybody who has to perform would want to with this large fan, it's larger than stated and heavy not a good buy,and you are responsible to pay to ship it back and if you want a replacement you have to pay for that too...."
338995,1,Sorry I bought this one,"I thought this would be funny, but it's mostly not. If you like reading about people getting drunk and smoking a lot of cigarettes, you might like this. It struck me as white trash ""humor"" and I couldn't even finish reading it."
338996,1,Didn't keep my attention,"I read a lot. In my lifetime, this is the only book that I actually just put down between 1/2-3/4 of the way through. I'm sure its principles apply to some, but I didn't want to give it anymore of my time. My time is valuable, and I didn't find this to be something that was worth that expenditure."
339061,1,Maybe An Isolated Issue,I've had this item for two weeks now and I still cannot resolve the issue of it not recognized by both my desktop and laptop. Technical support through e-mail is frustrating because it takes forever. I guess my unit is just a lemon since all the reviews here are all positive and in the up and up.
339100,1,Cold Soup Maker,This thing is terrible at making ice cream. The bowl is completely frozen and even after 30 minutes (they state needing only 20 min) the contents within are soupy and runny. It should at least be the consistency of soft serve. Every attempt to make ice cream so we could eat it immediately after has resulted in waiting a day for the freezer to actually finish the job. But of course then it's hard ice cream.
339127,1,Be Warned,The Good News-High quality DVD of 20/20 News report as originally broadcast 10/10/85.The Bad News-Missing Forever Young performance +it's a DVD-R with purple dye.Now you know!
339159,1,Disappointing and just plain boring...,"Easily the most disappointing book I've read in the past 5 years. I struggled just to get through it. If you like to pick up your favorite AP story and read a good interview in your USA today, then you'll love this book. For me, where is the thrill? The story line? The intrigue? At least give me some central character to root for or against!! And the the nerve of Brooks to attempt to invade Romero-style political comments relating to todays headlines...it just falls plain flat and childlike in his efforts. Not good..."
339269,1,Auto feed? Try no feed!,What a worthless product. I wonder if the design engineers ever actually tested these things in a real environment. The auto feed never works. Ever try to trim with one to two inches of line? That's all that ever comes out. They say do not bump it on the ground like a regular feed trimmer but out of frustration you will. Guess what happens - The spool cracks and breaks. I have roughly one hundred feet of trimming to do. After two and a half times I gave up on the trimmer. I could cut it faster with a hand trimmer. I'm returning it tomorrow. It is one month old.
339283,1,This Could Have Been a Great Book,This had the potential to be a great book. It would have been had the author waited a few years and gotten some real experience. It's painfully evident that -- taking nothing away from her achievements -- she just does not have the depth to take hold of this subject and keep it moving in good order. I felt as if I were listening in on her cell phone conversations.
339367,1,Horrible examples of abuse,This is one of the most disgusting books ever written. The Pearls are sick individuals who should be rotting in jail for their part in promoting child abuse. If you read this book understand that it is not the way you want to raise your children.
339388,1,Disappointed,"I bought this stereo based on the customer reviews and of course the low price. I returned it. The CD player worked for only a few hours before conking out. The digital tuner did not tune stations as well as I can with my other, non-digital radios. But most of all I was disappointed with the sound quality. It was very poor in my opinion and sounded like I was listening to it in the bathroom."
339399,1,Revolting Overpriced Collection,"Since you can easily buy these titles individually at a fraction of the price this collection makes no sense for any Disney enthusiast. Five more Disney DVDs could be purchased for the extra price being paid for the cardboard box. And Lion King II Simba's pride does not belong in any Disney set dubbed as ""classic"". Until Lion King and Beauty and the Beast are released Disney has no business releasing a classic DVD collector's set."
339411,1,Rises great but collapses as bake cycle starts,"It was exciting to watch how beautifully this bread rose. But within a couple minutes after the bake cycle started, the middle would collapse. Customer Service suggested altering some ingredients slightly. Still collapsed once the heat came on. After 7 loaves like that, we sent it back depite the fact the bread was tasty, which is the only reason I gave it 2 stars. Obviously too much heat initially in bake cycle. Previous breadmaker made hundreds of loaves, but none like those! Very disappointing!"
339458,1,Amazing Grace The Gathers,"The songs were great, but the track was too slow, they sounded like the words were sung by tired people. Gave one as a gift also and the lady felt the same way. I have over 20 Gather CD's and this is the first I didn't really enjoy."
339509,1,A dated work,"Although accurate in its content for the time it was written, this book is too old to be a help with the variety and complexities of the fast-changing world of Print-on-Demand in 2011."
339516,1,Worked well for the first few batches,"I was so pissed at this maker the other day, I visualized myself kicking it down my front yard! I've made ice cream for several years and have tried several makers. This one was reasonably priced and a brand that I was familiar with. It worked fine for the first few batches but the last two times, it's been terrible. The last batch that I made (I thought was frozen well), then I opened the canister and it was not. I finished it up in my Cuisinart freezerCuisinart ICE-20 Automatic 1-1/2-Quart Ice-Cream Maker, White(which works wonderfully but it just makes 1.5 quarts per batch). I purchased two of these and they both have problems, so it doesn't seem to just be an occasional flaw. Don't buy it!"
339536,1,a very average WWE PPV nothing special,1. Rey Mysterio vs R-Truth** Good match2. WWE Intercontinental Championship- Ezekial Jackson vs Wade Barrett* Fairly average id say ok tho3. Sin Cara vs Chavo Guerrero** It was good but not great sin cara messed up a lot that really dragged this match down4. World Tag Team Championship- Big Show and Kane vs CM Punk and Mason Ryan* Not good5. Diva's Championship- Brie Bella vs Kelly Kelly* terrible only one word to discribe it6. World Heavyweight Championship- Christian vs Randy Orton*** finally we have a very good match best match of the night7. Michael Cole vs Jerry Lawler- Kiss my foot match* Match was awful but the surprises were fun at the end of match8. I Quit Match for the WWE Championship- The Miz vs John Cena** Well never seen a more one sided match cena got his butt kicked pretty much theentire match so match really dragged at times not a great match but it was okQuite dissapointed with this ppv luckly i didnt have to pay for it
339589,1,Deceitful Marketing,The pampers diapers are very good and I use it for my twins. But this one star is for Amazon to have increased the price by more than 3 dollars just like that. Also it has been labeled clearance!!! This same diaper is available at SAMS club for 30 dollars!
339606,1,Disappointed as well...,"I like the strength-to-weight ratio of titanium as well as the texture and look of titanium. So after reading a couple of favorable opinions about this product, I decided to purchase this titanium money-clip.After receiving the money-clip in the mail, I was very disappointed as the first reviewer was (Dec. 31, 2005). Considering the price - $25, I really expected better. Right out of the box, it doesn't look or feel like a high quality item.Looking at the Amazon picture, I expected the money-clip to be considerably larger than what it was in real life. The thinness of the metal makes for a flimsy clip... I was careful not to bend it out of shape, but I think that holding anything more than a couple dollar-bills could easily bend it out of shape.Certainly, considering the price, I am returning this item. I wouldn't recommend this item."
339671,1,What a whiner!!!!,"Marina hasn't much understanding about truly tragic childhoods...let's see, private schools, living in the south of France, wow, such misery! Her grandfather didn't owe her a damn thing, and why didn't her mom and dad work? If I were Pablo, I'd crawl out of my grave and take my money back."
339680,1,Counterfeit... buy elsewhere,This product is a counterfeit. When I received it I was missing pieces like the other reviewers. All I received was a rubber mat with holes cut in it. There are no wires to provide the shock and it is missing the charge pack that would provide the shock if the wires were actually in the mat.Stay away from this seller. They do not deserve your business.
339709,1,Disappointing,"A gift for my elderly mother. Was disappointed, songs were not familiar. Not what I was looking forward to for comfort, encouragement, hope. Too much ""show"" and little substance."
339713,1,OMG ....I can't believe I bougth this book,"The mindless wanderings of a geologist who appears to be thinking about thinking about thinking about abiogenesis and telling us about trivia that happened in his lab or to some one he knew.If you are here to learn about abiogenesis,you'll love the chapter on why ther are no women mentioned in the book...pp. 187-8."
339763,1,Pricing Error?,I have to echo prior comments. I just came to Amazon hoping I could buy candy melts by the case (as they sell many other food items) and pay much less than the $2.99/bag I can in stores locally. There is no way this $6+ price is correct. It says it's for one bag. It can't possibly be correct. Who is going to pay 2-3 more for one bag? I hope this is fixed soon as I'd love a source for these online for less in bulk.
339843,1,Box contains a single stopper,"The box contains a single stopper, but on the back of the package it is very clearly stated that they recommend two stoppers per window. This is sort of like selling a single sock in a package and noting on the back that you need two for a pair. I think it's misleading and should be very clear in the product description or better yet, should only be packaged in pairs. Be aware!Yes, the (single) stopper will prevent the window from being raised, but it's ugly and I think it can be removed too easily by determined child."
339869,1,Unable to rate,"I am unable to write a review on this program because I never received my order. The order was through Amazon, but it was actually from No Limit Sales. Amazon however, was most helpful in trying to get my order and when it was several days past time for the last date of delivery, my purchase price was credited back to my account and I was free to place my order somewhere else."
339890,1,"Go to Apple's DVD selection for your Beatle Fan- Boo, BBC!","Really, really disappointed with this movie. I'm pretty well- read on Lennon and a life- long fan but couldn't get into to this. History- wise, too, it focuses on some really irrelevant events and skips over other more important ones. For example, why the focus on John's dad? More Cyn! More Yoko! What about the music? I did agree with the more harsh betrayal of Lennon, as believe it or not, he is human. However, Yoko's quiet, less aggressive character was a disappointment. Their relationship seemed sudden here when John had been communicating with her since India... Some little details such as this add to the drama but take away accuracy.Anyway, any big Beatle nerd may appreciate this as simply ""amusing."" It was fun to yell at the screen, personally.A more normal fan will be bored and disgusted by Lennon.Don't buy. A waste!"
339925,1,this movie is poor.,"I love the first sniper movie it was great. This sniper reloaded wasn't. There are a bunch of stupid scenes and the story line is awful. Example: a scene where the star character Sgt. Beckett shoots the radiator of a jeep that causes it to loose control and wreak,what? Also the beginning of the movie where Sgt Beckett urges his team to stay out of the line of sniper fire but half the movie he's running straight out into the open. Billy Zane has no significant roll. This movie was more like a TV movie on the USA network. Weak, please stop making sniper sequels they suck. Don't bother with this one."
340013,1,Worst earphones ever,"Received and returned JVC ""Noise Canceling Earphones"". I haven't used any kind of earphones that tinney since the early days of the first transistor single-ear phones. The JVC is far worse. In fact, I think now that they must have been defective. I've gone back to the $3 earphones that came with my 1980's walkman."
340018,1,a big dud,"The device worked fine until I tried to load the software, which would not install. I tried to contact tech support, they were worthless. There was a language barrier that took several minuets to over come. When that bridge was crossed she told me to ""up grade"" my OS and basically told me my computer was broken which it is not. I took it back the next day. I do not believe the tech person I spoke to has any advanced knowledge of computers based on our conversation. Horrible tech support and no real solutions offered"
340025,1,The good does not outweigh the bad.,"In a word: meh. As others have commented, this series starts off great and then just flounders. The original quartet are the best of the bunch, particularly the first and third books. ""Dragon Wing"" was really great fun with an intriguing anti-hero and ""Fire Sea"" is compellingly sad. However, the final trilogy is so unfocused and confusing (wait, the Fifth Gate leads where?) that I'm stunned no one forced them to condense it into one book. So, the problem in recommending ""Dragon Wing"" and ""Fire Sea"" is that it saddles you with the other five books and I just don't think it's worth it. I found this series to be the beginning of the end for Weis and Hickman, where editors obviously found it difficult to force such celebrated authors to make changes."
340095,1,If you want something that's easily tuned out...,"Now let me say that I do own the first two Spice albums. This album is quite slow. The music doesn't have much to it and the lyrics are dull. They sing well, I'll give them that, but it doesn't feel like they put much energy into this CD. Personally, I think they know this is the end and their priorities in life have changed. This album would be good if you want to listen to something in the background that you can pretty much tune out. It's not really something you would ever want to sit through just for the sake of listening to the music.In summary: good voices, [bad] songs."
340124,1,........Was expecting more.,"I am an avid reader of lesbian themed books, especially black lesbain books. To me this was just another one of those Urban sloppy books. If your looking for a good lesbian novel look somewhere else."
340271,1,not worth the hype,"This movie is horrible, boring, and completely predictable. For all the money they spent on the graphics, you would think they would have spent more on the screenplay. Don't waste your time on this complete failure of a movie."
340290,1,Refrigerator Automatic Ice Maker Kit,"Part Number 4317943, be sure this item has the ice tray area in the tan color Teflon coating, and NOT white. This is not a new item as advertised, but a refurbished unit!In my case the ice maker worked for about twenty cubes and froze up, my best guess was the white tray area was not non stick.It was hot and humid August month, I got it fixed, and all the repair guy did was replace 4317943, with the one as in the picture. This unit had the ice tray area in the tan color Teflon, works like a champ.So I am out the additional postage and insurance I had to pay to send the defective unit back. Just a real inconvenience!"
340333,1,damaged,"I like the songs, but the last song does not play properly (plays for a couple seconds and stops and again again). I think the CD is damaged, but did not bother to return for one song."
340363,1,Faulty Design,"Don't buy this or any of Philips' TVs. The electronic board is poorly designed and will, fry itself. If you're lucky, like me, it'll fry itself in the first month so you can get warranty work for free.. Otherwise you're going to pay about the price of the TV to repair it.Philips is extremely uncooperative. It took 5 calls to their support line and finally a series of letters to the Better Business Bureau to get them to authorize warranty work on a faulty set. Then it takes a month to get repaired.Save yourself an extra $100 and get the crappy daewoo. At least you won't be out $270 for a tv when it breaks."
340383,1,New plastic-y carafe doesn't work well,"One of the problems with coffee presses is that the carafes are prone to breakage. The new ones with the plastic-y, break resistant carafe do not fit the plunger as precisely as the old fashioned glass ones did. Coffee spurts out while pressing and grounds get into the finished product. I took the first one back, but this one does the same thing, so now I just make coffee in the sink."
340425,1,Cracks after a short time,"I was foolish enough to buy 3 of these. Each one developed a crack in the inner liner after being used for about a week or two. In addition, the top tends not to seal well and often leaks. This product looks great but performs poorly."
340482,1,Humperdink,"Humperdink's Busy Day is part of the Richard Scarry's Busy Day Storybooks series. Humperdink is the baker in Busytown. The baker has to wake up early to bake bread for the town and runs into other people that work early in the morning. He goes through the preparation of the oven, making the dough and baking the bread. When they finish they display and deliver the bread. This is a wonderful book to introduce children to the occupation of bring a baker. The animal characters are wonderfully drawn and the make believe town is enchanting. The illustrations are very detailed but might be difficult for very young children to truly enjoy. The print might turn some children off because it is quite small for a picture book. It is a great book for a parent to read aloud with their child while they turn the pages."
340529,1,Poor Quality Control,"My husband tried to put this high chair together for our niece's 1st birthday, however there was no way possible for this to happen! Holes were drilled on the outside of one side of the chair (when they needed to be on the inside to put it together.) The painting was also sloppy, with what looked like black, Chinese lettering painted over on the tray of the chair. All and all this was an immediate return for us. Super disappointing, as we generally have had a lot of luck with Kidkraft items for our kids."
340557,1,disappointed with shelf life,I ordered a box of power bar energy gels and the expiration date was only 8 months from the date of purchase
340580,1,Cheap at any price,"The two best things about this item are that it looks neat and doesn't sound half bad. The worst things are that the main unit that plays the CD and has the controls and radio is considerably flimsy, it plays the CDs it wants to play, and having to figure out where to put the 50 lb sub-woofer considerably counterbalances the (optional) mount-on-the-wall, low profile gestalt of the rest of the system. Since I got it as a stop gap to play CDs while my beloved Denon Cellina is being worked on, I suppose I should be satisfied. However, I shouldn't have paid more than $40 for a machine that doesn't play every CD I have."
340629,1,MacOS X is the greatest OS but this is the worst machine by Apple.,"Stay away from this thing! Runs WAY too hot, lots of early failures, the screen is so hot it burns your eyes like staring into a camp fire. Form over function taken much too far in this machine! This form in a Pentium M would probably be the best machine they've ever sold."
340637,1,Lousy product that fell apart,DO NOT buy this product as it does not last. Worked for one month and the fell apart.
340690,1,Yuck!,Terrible! One of the worst films on an important topic I have seen. Absolutely unusable in a classroom.
340755,1,Stay Away!,"Terrible. This unit has been trouble since it came out of the box...ten months after we purchased it, it stopped working altogether."
340933,1,STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,All I can say about this book is that it is the stupidest book I ever read.
341039,1,Scooter cover for a Vespa,"This product claims to be size Large. It won't fit a Vespa LX-150.Advertising is misleading. The quality of this cover is poor, of course the cover was made in China. [...]Company claims shipping weight to be 12 pounds, the actual weight is 1 lb 14 oz."
341104,1,Just 'okay' film; great soundtrack.,"Unfortunately, Mr Rock trots out the unnecessary racial humor, of the slightly stinging variety. I felt as if I'd paid 7.50 to be insulted for an hour and a half. At some point in the film, the race humor died down for the most part and it began to be somewhat humorous fun again.Too bad no soundtrack is available for this film; there are some catchy gems. By the way, does anyone know the names of some of the song titles or their artists?"
341115,1,Not very realistic.,"I was looking for good historical fiction to appeal to boys, and this sounded like a possibility. Unfortunately, compared to books like Night Journies, The Bell Keeper, and Jericho's Journey, this was pretty weak. The story line basics are okay, but the author throws in so many unrealistic dilemmas that I was laughing by the end to see what disaster would happen next. Also, the children are modern rather than typical of the 18th century."
341176,1,"Nice pan, low quality construction","Loved this when I got it, but it cracked after a few months under NORMAL use. When I called about the warranty, I found out it doesn't guarantee replacement or pay shipping, which was going to be almost half the price of the product. Next time I'm going to pay a little more, go with a more reputable manufacturer."
341340,1,JUNK,THE ONLY POWERFUL BURST THE DRAIN BUSTERGIVES IS FROM THE HOLE IN YOUR POCKETS.DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. IT DOESN'T WORK!!
341345,1,worst service ever,"I bought this item because it has high ratings and good reviews but when I received the item it was all broken into pieces in its box and it was just a useless pile of plastic. I always heard good things about amazon and its services but the first time I order something and its just broken and useless and a huge waste of time for me since now they will want me to send it back to them. I know they won't lose anything by losing one customer but I don't expect anything more from such a big corporation. Just the way it is right, few angry customers are just a nuisance for them to be ignored.Anyway if anyone is reading this review just trust me and don't buy this item from amazon or any other item that has to be handled with care."
341348,1,1978 solo effort has more strong tunes on it,"If you really like Peter Criss' singing voice, and you're not too hard on his writing chops (which are not terribly strong), I think you will STILL find his original solo collection from 1978 a better album. On ""Out of Control"" a lot of the material suffers from sort-of cheesy lyrics (though heartfelt, sometimes a bit weak, unintentionally comic), and, as someone else noted, some misfires when Criss attempts to rock harder than he should be doing with this outfit. My favorite track is ""Words"" which, for me as a KISS fan and Criss admirer, makes this CD worth owning. But probably not for $24.00.But, if you're curious, and you gotta have it, then you gotta have it."
341394,1,Very Disappointed,This was a boring series of scenes of her backstage; maybe should have read description better; thought is was a performance dvd
341421,1,"It's great for 6 months, then you're on your own","We bought two for our small office. They worked very well for 6 months, then, almost on the same day, they crapped out. We were told we'd have to get parts replaced. So if you're looking to print for 6 months, GO FOR IT (at a cost over $33/month)! If you need something to last a little longer, keep looking!"
341548,1,Do not buy this product,"This product is terrible and I'm going to return mine or throw it away. It constantly wanders to places I don't want it to be or trails where I think it should be based on my usage of other mice. At this point I consider it unusable. I've tried it on several surfaces to see if it was a tracking problem, but noticed no real change in behavior. I think what's happening is it keeps trying to go to sleep while I'm moving it, because the tracking is OK as long as I'm moving it very quickly, but when I'm trying to precision target something like an icon or a piece of text it starts jumping erratically. I keep it about 6 inches from my laptop at all times, and the laptop isn't complaining about connection problems."
341581,1,Horrible Coin Slabs. Buy Coin World Premier Instead,All I will say is if you want to have to glue the cases together so they don't fall apart then these cases are for you. I thought I would try these since they were much cheaper then the Coin World Premier Slab holders. I found out the hard way that saving some money doesn't always equate to finding a good product. Don't waste your money like I did.
341668,1,This book could be better organised.,"This book could do with better organisation. Same topics should be grouped together instead of mentioning them at different chapters. I also expected to see more information and suggestions on where to go. ""The Gap Year Book, 2Ed"" also published by Lonely Planet is a much better written book. You may be wiser to wait for the second edition."
341672,1,Deserves No Stars,"This video is an absolutely amateurish waste of video tape. It is like an hour long homemade video which is essentially a commercial for some tour the video's makers, travel agent/tour operator types who make the mistake of appearing on screen and narrating, have thrown together without the assistance of anyone who knows how to competently make a video.The video focuses on one hotel in Cancun and one in Playa del Carmen, including such trivia as the fruit in their buffet, their water treatment system, and what the rooms look like. Lots of focus on places to shop, but not much in which a discriminating buyer would be interested. They show a bit of the beach and some of the activities there, and they go to the ruins at Tulum. If you only saw this video, you would assume that Cancun and the Mayan Riviera are destinations to avoid.This video is a complete waste of time and money."
341689,1,Proof positive that Reed really needs drugs.,"Yes, that's right: Lou Reed needs to go back to his drug-addled ways! Heroin, speed, Mylanta even. If this is the kind of music that comes of clean living, inspired love and maturity, forget it brother, make mine a speedball! This album is absurdly overwrought in all the wrong ways: sonically tinkered to a fare-thee-well with stream of consciousness ""Dear Diary""-esque horseshit lyrics worthy of a love-sick 12-year-old. Sure, great rock'n'roll should be passionate, but if I wanted to hear the whispered sweet nothings (key word: nothing) of an infatuated jackass, I'd drill a hole into my neighbors' apartment, and listen in as they baby talk to each other. Reed should drop the pretentious, sensitive poet routine and go back to being a gritty, sarcastic rocker."
341857,1,UTG,"Dont buy guns if they are made by UTG. I have bought a number of guns from them and my airsofting buddies have as well. They are a terrible manufacturer, all the UTG guns we had broke within 2 or 3 weeks of purchasing with only light to moderate use (maybe used 2 times a week). Gun was not as fast as advertised and was again poorly manufactured. AVOID!!!!!!"
341870,1,Urine seeps into every crack and crevice causing an unholy stench.,"This thing stinks. Literally.In no time at all, your bathroom will smell like a truck-stop restroom. This thing has so many cracks and crevices, that any aim that isn't spot on leaks into the interior, where it dries and starts to stink. See those green handles? Well, they attach to the rest of the toilet through holes in the top. If your kid misses a little and pees on the seat, it runs into the handles holes and drips into the interior, where it pools in various chambers.As others have mentioned, the pee shield is worthless."
341876,1,THE MYTH OF PROGRESS,"A particular sentence in this book made me laugh so much - and I found it symptomatic of much of the thinking throughout. The line goes - paraphrasing - that it is the progress of mankind which has led from alchemy to chemistry, from number mysticism to mathematics, from astrology to astronomy and from the cave to the skyscraper. I don't doubt that the first three examples mark a greater exapansion of human understanding ... but skyscrapers? This would seem to be a case of conflating human civilization with Americanism, which of course was the point often in Rand's argument. But as the architect Cedric Price once said (in criticising The Fountainhead), when you can afford to live in the 40th floor suite of the Hilton you will hardly be complaining about psychological deprivation. But Rand was just as nave about these matters as was Le Corbusier. I would recommend reading George Henrik von Wright's essay ""The myth of progress""."
341973,1,Poor,For those who care about such things you might be interested to know that (according to www.publicenemy.com) the band is not behind this CD. Apparently they also have a proper three disc set coming out soon.It'd be hard to make a bad PE compilation (because they made such good songs) but this CD is lacking.
341996,1,Great book if you hate science,"I should know better- any time a book has a negative title, that's a red flag for me.Instead of 'It's not carpal tunnel"" , something about what it IS then, might be a better approach.The general anti-doctor attitude is a theme that does not just run through the book, it overtakes it to the point that it renders the information useless. This book is more of a manifesto than a manual on how to take care of your body.Save your money and just do some hand warmups before you type, eat right and get a second opinion - there, now you know as much as I do after reading this book!"
342236,1,NO WAY,"I bought this book to study for my ABOC. I didn't get very far, lets just say that.If you peruse[...] website, you'll be able to find the link to a page with far more helpful study materials. BTW: Just a few tips about the abo:Study common eye diseases and conditionsHow Prism worksFocal length equationsnames of tools and lensometer parts. (I got a 91. YAY) Good luck!I found the downloadable ABO Practice exam VERY helpful:[...]Also"
342317,1,Dreadful! What went wrong?,"I can't believe how bad this film is. This is the second film (The first being ""House of the Dead"") that I actually couldn't finish because I was bored. It had action but it was boring because I didn't care for any of the characters despite all of the name actors attached to the project. I really tried my best to continue to watch. Normally a quick shot of a nude Eva Mendez, and constant pans of Scarlett's cleavage would have been enough to keep me watching but even those lovely sights weren't enough. It's that bad folks. If you enjoy this type of visual style, you would be much better served watching Sin City again. If you haven't seen Sin City, then you should skip this one and watch that one instead."
342352,1,Not Entertainment,"This is an irritating story of several obnoxious, self-absorbed characters who complicate each other's lives with their unscrupulous behavior. If it was intended as a ""character study"", it failed. What is does best, however, is to serve as a vehicle to showcase the enormous talent of its cast. The performances were admirable. Otherwise, the film is a complete waste."
342353,1,the worst yet Coen Brothers film,"horribly contrived with the feel of bad, contrived theatre. Pitt's performance is embarassing and George Clooney's marginally less awful. Only Tilda Swinton walks away with her reputation intact. A woeful misfire by the normally spot-on Coens alas."
342356,1,sucked,"Why force 20 words amazon?, ""sucked"" suffices. The music in the movie sucked, the acting was ok but the story was just too random and SLOW. Random doesn't equal good."
342411,1,At least it has spurred a search for the real truth,"The author would like to take the tragedy of Jedwabne and construct around it a tale of Polish anti-Semitism and cruelty. But any serious reader of this book owes it to the memory of the victims, that the story of their suffering is not used to distort history, for whatever motives. What happened at Jedwabne? There are differing views. Unfortunately, the author does not give serious credence to any viewpoint except his own. The intellectually lazy approach to historical research employed here would not pass muster at any university. The only good that could come of this work is that it has at least opened a debate, and intensified a search for the real truth, among more serious scholars. Whether the massacre at Jedwabne was in reality perpetrated by the Poles or the Germans, we may someday find out... But not as any direct result of this author's seriously flawed sensationalist effort."
342423,1,Awful.,"This book is awful, boring and poorly written. I would not have read so much of it, if I hadn't been so tired. How on earth did this drivel get printed?"
342448,1,Bring Back Patti!,Madonna's weak attempt at repriseing the role that rightfully belongs to Patti Lupone is pitiful. Antonio Bandaras though easy on the eyes can't live up to mandi Patinkin
342608,1,MMD in Minor,"As much as I liked Michael McDonald's former CD's Sweet Freedom and Take it to heart, I hate to say, that this CD is a big disappointment. The songs are too much alike and the overall tone is dark and melancholic. So, if you prefer Major to Minor, and want to buy Michaels best CD this far, my recommendation is Sweet Freedom !"
342619,1,Piece o' Junk!,One side worked fine. The other side didn't work at all. But at this price it would have cost me as much to send it back. Don't buy this!
342638,1,no more pim,"my grandchildren will not even watch these videos. Poor animation, the words are said too quickly so you never really quite hear them or understand them. Not cohesive. I do not recommend."
342656,1,Not as great as I thought it would be,"I bought the ""Treasury of Magical Knitting"" and this book. One would have been enough."
342711,1,Continuous line quilt patterns,If I had known what it was I wouldn't have bought it. Simple designs that anyone can do with a couple pieces of graph paper.
342760,1,Who's the real enemy here?,Richard Clarke reminds me a lot of Sen. John Kerry in that he flip flops from one opinion to another and tries to lie his way out.Clarke has the right of freedom of speech but to exploit the lost lives that came out of 911 is inexcusable. Perhaps Clarke should write a book called Against All Lies and expose himself for what he really is: a liar trying to profit from a national tradgedy.
342787,1,Doesn't Play,"Don't buy it. Sent 1st one back because it wouldn't play, the 2nd one only played in German. The few minutes I watched looked boring anyway. Terrible product."
342834,1,Xantrex won't sell parts for repair on this item,I have a Xantrex Xpower 1500 and the inverter alarm light comes on with nothing plugged into it and the batteries fully charged. I contact Xantrex to see about replacing the inverter and they don't sell repair parts. They did however offer me a customer discount on a new unit - Don't Think So!
342849,1,this toy is very disappointing,"it seems as if the parts do not fit properly. the parts are subject to lateral stresses, which cause the whole track to to become aligned improperly. the launcher is either under-powered, or the incline is too steep, because the car simply gets to the almost top of the incline section, and flops backwards; either onto the floor, or (if you're lucky) onto the track below where the car comes to an inverted sliding halt. i'm not sure how easy it was to put together, because none of the parts seemed to fit. my son liked it better before i finished putting it together, because then he wasn't disappointed because it didn't work. once i got all the pieces in place, and told him it was ready, he was crying moments later because it kept comming apart, and his ""race"" kept falling apart.horrible, horrible toy. buy your kid a savings bond instead of this piece of junk."
342886,1,Where's my stuff??,"I ordered this product 3 weeks ago and still haven't received it, it actually hasn't shipped as of yet???? By the time I get it, I'm afraid the rain season will be over and snow will arrive."
342960,1,So pitiful!,"Well, if you can handle the graphics that make the games from the 1980's look amazing and the 1,000,000's of glitches, it's pretty fun."
343242,1,"Mat looks fluffy, right? It really isn't.","The photo of this mat looks like it would be pretty padded but it isn't at all. It's quite thin. The back has vinyl dots so it's supposed to grip the crate pan, but in my car it ends up sliding around with the dog on it and being bunched up. Here are my comments to two claims they make in the product description:- Luxurious plush sleeper bed for both dogs and cats - not luxurious feeling - maybe luxurious looking but it's just fake fur- Non Skid backing for secure placement - definitely not secureIt was inexpensive, so you get what you pay for. I would not buy this again."
343291,1,Disappointed,"I found this book to be insulting to women as a whole. It talked down to the reader and assumed that because you were reading it you were automatically a spoiled, whimpering brat. This book will not disgrace my library shelves."
343316,1,Pass on this offer,These look nice but did not fit well nor did they make it through one wash - keep looking...
343348,1,Not the best,I'm usually quite a fan of Dustin Hoffman as well as most kids movies but I found this movie pretty boring and extremely silly even for a kids movie.
343376,1,No memorable quote available.,"Half-hearted adaptation of Ernest Haycox novel is weak. Scott is good as Owen; Knox is equally good as the baddie, but the film is missing movement. If there were ever a Razzie award at the time, it would have to go to the title song."
343398,1,Poor Quality,"Delivery of the product was earlier than expected and when I opened it, I was very hopeful having returned a couple of other nets before. Unfortunately, when I pulled the entire net out, there was a huge hole towards one end. It wasn't that the knot had come loose, it was actually not even tied. Returning it would cost more than the net itself so I'm resorting to ""fix"" it by patching it with natural jute twine. Very disappointed in this."
343419,1,Didn't work for me,I read it as part of a bookclub. I did like it. The whole time travel plot/gimic I did in th 80's but grew tired of was not as original as my group thought. I hated the ending. It did end were I expected. They continuely mention Prince Charlie and they're finally in France and they don't meet. And her feeling pregnate thing didn't work for me.I did try the next in the series but it starts somewhere else than the ending so I gave up.
343454,1,..............,"o.. dear.. yall i hope she dont look like them UGLY pics that amazon.com has here, because wow THEY SOOO UGLY!! u have to admit. i wouldnt lie about this, if they were pretty i would say so. my sis has a my scene barbie and shes alrite. but WOW. it hurts to look at those pics. eww... sorry guys. i jus hope for those who are gonna get her or have her that she looks NOTHING like those pics o_O i have to say the clothes are nice from the pics tho."
343480,1,Poor,"I ended up dropping this course. The book was not an easy read, but my professor made up his own answers and didn't follow the book. I could use a better geography book. This seemed outdated."
343506,1,"Artistry is wonderful, when u can hear it","I absolutely love a good Tattoo! I just listened to the samples of the music and was shocked at what poor quality it is. I do understand it was an outside recording and as in an earlier comment they did as good of a job as possible, and there was the noise of the crowd. I feel like this music is ingrained in my soul and would not, could not, sell a sound recording with such little respect.The wonderful Artistry of the Edinburgh Military Tattoo deserves better than that. It's a shame the quality of the recording is so bad, I would have absolutely loved to have a good recording of this amazing work."
343547,1,Bad Speaker,"I coudn't stand this video. From the get go he stutters, pauses, ""ah""s and ""um""s continuously. The text is not scripted, nor is it conversational. I think he had stage fright in front of the camera. He needs to learn how to speak. As a result, I could not listen any more, and certainly nothing useful was absorbed of the footage I did watch. The intro cut scenes, every 1 - 2 seconds, made no sense and was unnerving. Although there was some good camera footage here and there, it was edited poorly. He may be a god sailor, but he is certainly a lousy narrator."
343551,1,"No Guts, No Glory","This thing is a sheep in wolf's clothing. I like the concept: it is designed to water large areas of your lawn by following the path of a garden hose and shutting itself off without supervision. A tough, die-cast exterior belies cheap plastic internals that broke after only a few hours of use. If you're looking for a traveling sprinkler that will last, keep looking."
343573,1,Mac Owners Be Careful!,"Why would anyone sell a scanner that is MacIntosh compatible in a package with a digital camera Macs cannot use? That is what happened to me! This Mikrotek camara is useless on my Mac G3 since it's for Windows only! I assumed since the Scanner was Mac compatible then the camera must be too! .... Also the camera is super small (about 4"" by 3"") and there isn't any guidelines with it or directions and specs. Just a tiny slip of paper with about two generic sentences on it telling you things that anyone with common sense already knows. It's made in China and consists of cheap plastic like those throw away cameras from you local drug store you use one time only. The cap for the lens cover falls off constantly and no way to fasten it back on. ...."
343605,1,This refrigerator should get negative stars,"Purchased this refrigerator (Amana AFD2535DEW) in November of 2008. Fast forward to today (December 2012) and I am out $200+ to repair a failed defrost circuit board (freezer was frozen over in the rear and the refrigerator would no longer cool because of it). I paid a lot of money for a high end refrigerator rated highly by Consumer Reports and I get something that fails four years later. To add insult to injury, the freezer handle feels like it is ready to fall off (reading online that this is a common problem as well with no known good fix). I will never buy a Maytag/Whirlpool/Amana product again in my life. I am also writing to Consumer Reports in hope that they lower their rating and remove any recommendation of this product."
343630,1,Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close,I did not like this book at all. There seemed to be no substance and the ending was inconclusive. I can't belive a movie was made based on this book.
343737,1,Total disaster,"I am very unhappy with this purchase and hope that this is not common case. The image was absolutely not what I received; I had all return hassle plus I didnt; get what I needed. I feel like your site took advantage of me and try to get my money. You should be responsible for this situation, however I have a feeling nobody cares."
343770,1,Pathetic - Do not waste your money on this!,"Star Wars Galaxies used to be a great game...There have been 2 major changes since the initital release in 2003 and this recent change made has utterly RUINED the game. This is a starter for the online version, a way to get you to buy the online product by giving you a taster of the first levels. As a game, the graphics are very buggy, and the constant clicking of the mouse will leave your hand in pain (No joke!). The game has been taken over by Lucasarts who have no history in making mmorpg's, which is what this Starter Kit is the first few levels of...Save yourself the money and do not buy this game!"
343864,1,flimsy prodect,"The item worked out of the box, as I tested it and put it aside for later use. In 3 days, when I needed it, it didn't work.I'm an electrical engineer and fixing up these things is what I'm good at, so I opened it up and realized that the design is quite poor. The PCB that holds the wire connector is connected to the main PCB only through 3 solder junctions! This is ridiculous, everyone knows solder itself is brittle and can easily break. So what happens is that if you push the wire connector too much, it will transfer the force to the first PCB, and since it is only connected to the chassis and the second PCB through three solder junctions, one of them will break!Well I patched it up and made it work again, but I don't expect the majority of people trying to fix this thing. Once fixed, it worked like a regular multimeter.Be warned!"
343936,1,Don't bother reading this one,This book was probably the most boring I have read. I truly tried to get through it but I finally gave up during the second part. The author rambles on and on while not revealing anything of substance. It is an extremely slow read. Do not buy it for you'll waste your money. BORING !!!!
343942,1,Not a very good read,"I found The Power Game to be lacking in character and style, aimed at an audience prefering an easy read to a good one. Both the plot and the characters seemed crafted to please rather than to challenge, falling into easy DC politics stereotypes. One finds it impossible to either emphatize or dislike the characters: they are just dull. It is a shame that Dr. Nye has not made better use of his experience of insider DC politics and of the security policy themes around which the novel evolves."

344006,1,3 Words- FIRE YOUR AGENT,"This is a complete fantasy movie. Completely.Where the hell is a 20-year-old kid going to get chemicals like this and then these elaborate get-ups and devices and then set them up rigged to go off based on how many people are hitting his web site? My god, most boys his age can't even perform proper oral sex let alone mastermind this kind of serial killing. It's just complete fantasy.The kid from `Running with Scissors' plays the bad guy and wow; fire your agent, please. Diane Lane has no excuse. This is just bad behavior on her part. Bad behavior.When I die, I will defiantly be talking to Whomever is in charge about getting the time I wasted watching this film added back onto my life as a matter of principle."
344007,1,The Prince of Pretentious does his Volume II,"There is something so painfully self-serving about the author and the way that he writes, that it is very difficult to get very far into the book-- it has to do with the style, the way things are worded, then stupid little expressions and most of all, the unbearably pretentious overall feel. Look for shameless self-promotion by the author all summer long."
344052,1,DVD other zone than EUROPE,I was very disappointed not to be able to watch this DVD. I have no DVD player for zone 1!
344170,1,The Gong Show Gang of Heldentenors,"This is among the most awful example of ""singing"" I ever heard. JaquesUrlus is an exception- he had a wonderful voice and sang excellently. Some are tolerable at best.These guys bark, snort, scream and wail. They sound like they are hanging from a noose. They have ugly voices which they make worse by barbaric singing technique and style.At best, this is a party record for laughs only [a la] Florence Foster Jenkins. Anyone who criticized Lauritz Melchior for anything, ought to be tied to a chair and forced to hear this disc for several hours."
344222,1,Less than satisfactory,"This book looks much more like a collection of research papers thatthe authors put together than a book which could profit the student population.They are other books in the market that are more succint and to the point in approaching the topic of non linearity, a good buy remainthe two books of the late M.A.Crisfield"
344229,1,Book seems to have been fleshed out from an old diary,"While I'm sure Mike Krutko is a heck of a guy and would be wonderful to kno w in person, I'm afraid his book is not very exciting. The prose is flat and full of useless details, like the number and species of fish he caught from day to day. Although he led an adventurous life, you can't really get a feel for it from the way he's described it."
344246,1,nice axe but handle doesn't hold up,"This hatchet seems well designed and I loved the blade protector/carrier.But the hollow ""polymer"" handle transmits vibration to your hand pretty severely. I think I had read about some models having a hollow shaft, but didn't realize that THIS model was hollow.Then, on my third or fourth use, the handle shattered when I was splitting fairly ordinary kindling. Admittedly I was using a hammer to 'persuade' the blade down through the wood, but it seems to me that a hatchet SHOULD be able to handle that kind of usage.Next time I will stick with a steel handle, and perhaps something a tad longer than this 14"" size."
344261,1,Very disappointing and unusually disgusting.,"I am a devoted fan of PC's novels, but this one left me wondering if she actually wrote it. Scarpetta has gotten increasingly more self-righteous in each book, but she was nearly intolerable in UE! Also, one needs a reasonably strong stomach in order to read these books, but this one literally made me nauseous. I was very unhappy with this one, but I look forward to POO. I hope she spends more time in Richmond. She really sheds an interesting light on a city I love and miss dearly. Easing up on Marino would be very cool,too! Second to Kay, he is the favorite character of those in our extremely informal PC readers club. At any rate, I'll keep my fingers crossed!"
344288,1,SLEEPY HEAD,"I'm not pregnant but I wanted a good organic vitamin and thought these would be the perfect one considering they're organic and had greeeat review. BUT PLEASE BE AWARE--ALLL I do is sleep all day especially on weekend when I am of from work.I need a viatmin that will give me strength to keep up with my daily routine not one that puts me in bed!I've try to take at night and do sleep like a babbby, however, regardless of that fact, I still am Sleepy ALL DAMN day.I wonder if I am the only one with this problem when it comes to this multi-viatmin.HMM?"
344304,1,The Un-Popular Book,"Hey, when I first saw this book in the store, I thought it looked cool cause I usually look for books with black people on the cover and it had an interesting plot. Then, I read the reviews for this story, and they said the book was bad, but I didn't believe it. Now, I do. This book was horrible. The beginning was long and boring, the ending was short and chopped out, and I got lost in between. There were a lot of questions left unanswered...the Big Think issue..the school play..I mean, I don't even know for sure if these people hooked up in the end! Whatever you do, don't buy this book. This was the worst Love Stories I've ever read. If you wanna read a good one, read Snag Him! or Jake and Christy."
344366,1,dont buy,The product is very flimsey did not work at all broke as soon as I tryed to put the first one on. Then tryed second one and wouldn't hold to sheets in little clips. This sucks don't buy
344471,1,Not worth the money,The story is not bad but certainly not the best. However what gets me is paying almost $3.50 for a book that's smaller than a 3 x 5 index card. So be warned.
344550,1,Ehhh,"This one didn't thrill me. It didn't feel like it was from the time era. Sure, throw in an old car and a dance and it's 1939? Um no, the language felt recent, the story line felt recent. It all felt a little stale to me. This one is not out of the ordinary. You can pick this type of book up from anywhere, it's a common blueprint. If you want something fresh, this isn't it."
344554,1,Don't Bother With This Method,"We've tried many things for the moles in our neighborhood. The Senoret Chemical Mole Poison was one method tried. In a nutshell, it doesn't do anything. Doesn't help at all.Our next door neighbor had great luck withLiquid Fence 167 Mole Repellent. This will move the animals off the treated area and perhaps a bit farther. If you live in a residential area most likely this method will just move the moles down the street a house or two. Sooooo.... if you dislike your neighbors. :-)Good luck. Moles are sneaky buggers and difficult to get rid of. I think we finally got rid of ours due to larger critters eating them. It's theCircle Of Life."
344634,1,label patches everywhere,"in the picture it shows the jacket plain black with orange inside. when i got it it patches all over it saying the name brand, that were velcro so when i pulled them off i had velcro patches all over the outside of the jacket. i had to take it to a seamstress to have them removed. the kind of material would have been easy to damage if i had tried to remove them myself. i was very disapointed and will never order from them again."
344715,1,Simplistic and obvious,"This book is just one long rant about what are now completely obvious pressures that society places on a female in a family. There is nothing in there that is not known to every working woman and the author simply goes on and on about them and how she privately rebels and doesn't wash laundry every day or how she and her husband share chores. There is nothing new or interesting here, skip it."
344791,1,terrible order,"The item is likely a good one, if you ever get it. I ordered 2 from Amazon. After no delivery for a long time UPS said the box was found empty during shipment (likely not packed well I imagine) and the box was discarded. I called Amazon and re-ordered. The items came, both in plastic sleeves with the same 901114 part number, but were different. I got one to fit but the other was entirely wrong. I called Amazon for a refund and did manage to set one up but had to talk to a guy in India whose English in my opinion was marginal at times. If I get my money back for the incorrect part it will still be the worst order I have ever placed with Amazon. Whoever the supplier is clearly does not do a good job."
344796,1,I just dont' get it,I must not be a puzzle game person because I have no idea how anyone could get through these puzzles in a reasonable amount of time. The objects are so alien looking that I have no idea what to do with the things that I have picked up. I found a walk thru online and used it for the Gazebo outside on the first world. If I didn't have that there is no way I would have been able to solve it. Luckly I only paid $7 for this at Electronics Bountique and didn't feel that bad about breaking the CDs in half and throwing everything in the trash in fustration.
344873,1,Missed opportunity!,"Upon merely skimming through the index, I came upon numerous errors, as have the other reviewers. I list a couple that I spotted with ease:Incredibly, there seems to be no mention at all of Isao Tomita, at least according to the contents and index.Wendy Carlos has never owned or used a Moog System 55.Giorgio Moroder didn't use a drum machine in anger until at last 1981, when the Linn LM-1 was released. The drums and percussion on all the groundbreaking 1970's Moroder/Bellotte recordings was provided by drummer Keith Forsey or through the use of Moog synthesizer modules. It was a tape loop of Forsey's kick drum that provided the only real drum sound on 'I Feel Love'.The inaccuracies in this book made me refrain from buying it, which was a shame since the effort was clearly well-intentioned. Roll on a properly error checked new edition!"
344888,1,One Hospitals view,"I have read about half of this book before I got so fed up that I put it down. It is focused on two hospitals that merged. One of the hospitals was a stellar nurse oriented hospital, the other more money saving oriented. It discussed in depth the problems that came up between the two. Although these two hospitals may show what is happening in the industry, it felt more like an internal study of the merger of these hospitals rather than a commentary on the ""Dismantling of Nursing"". Very disappointed. Waste of money."
344890,1,Hate them,"I subscribed in october, and as i understand it due to problems unrelated to me will receive ein februaray my first issue but have to pay renewal in april....I ended up purchasing in the newsstand the issues of a magazine I already subscribed to....."
344903,1,This album was very disappointing,"After hearing the PJ's first 2 albums, Fear of a Wack Planet is a major disappointment. They're obviously lacking after losing 2nd rapper K-Tel Disco. Soulman makes a good effort alone, but the albums lyrics aren't half as good as they could be. The band also seems to have lost a lot of their ""phunkyness."" The PJ's best days are behind them, stick with the first 2 albums."
344926,1,Eh.........,"It wasn't a bad book, really, but it didn't do much for me. I found myself thinking 'Lord of the Flies' the entire time I was reading about young Richard and his exploits. If this book is in your 'Maybe Read' pile, I'd say just watch the movie with Leonardo DiCaprio. The scenery there is awesome and more relationships develop on screen than in the book. Most of the movie follows the book in lockstep. There is some crazy violence in the book that didn't make it to the big screen, however.You never know - you might like it. For me, though, it was a fairly unmemorable book."
344939,1,An interesting but too long written novel,I read the book in my English lesson at school but it took a long time for me to finish the novel. In my opinion the first 100 pages of the beach were interesting and easy to read. But after this part it becomes boring. The describtion of the several problems in the community are written to long but the different characters trades are described too superficial so it was very hard for me to understand the relations between the Beachers.
345025,1,Completely Useless,The vibration unit only works if its inches away from the main unit (not 15 feet like the box says). I tried different batteries and even returned the unit for another one. The new one did the same thing. I tried contacting the first years via phone and email. Nobody EVER answers their phones and I got no response via email. POOR product and POOR service. Too bad because I think it's a good idea.
345062,1,"It's ""Corporate Socialism"" ... not Capitalism.","Michael Moore blames ""capitalism"" for the economic problems in this country. He is mistaken; it is ""corporate socialism"" that is at fault.When the judge (in the documentary) was sentencing juveniles into a privatized detention complex, we viewers are led to believe that this is an example of capitalism run amok. Wrong! Because this involved government money being funneled into a private company, it's really corporate socialism.In contrast, within a ""free enterprise"" system, private companies are allowed to succeed or fail on their own merits -- without government subsidies. Michael Moore needs to do his homework."
345100,1,Missing Half of it!,"The sizes are not clear. Apparently, plus and queen are the same. You can't find that info anywhere. It's cute, but I got the mini dress but no matching G-string. So, the ""dress"" is pretty much useless without the complete package. I should have just ran downtown and picked one up."
345101,1,SOMETIMES A MEMORY IS BETTER THAN THE FACT,"I'M 58 YEARS OLD AND I ALWAYS WATCHED HOWDY DOODY WHEN I WAS A KID. THEN I GREW UP AND HE WENT OFF THE AIR. I ALWAYS CHERISHED THE MEMORY OF WATCHING HOWDY AND I COULDN'T WAIT TO SEE HIM AS AN ADULT SO I BOUGHT THE DVD. LET ME TELL YOU, IN MY OPINION ""EVEN UNDERSTANDING THAT IT WAS THE BEGINNING OF TV"", US KIDS WERE OBVIOUSLY ENTERTAINED BY ANYTHING, BECAUSE AFTER ONE HALF OF AN EPISODE I WAS TWISTING TO FINISH WATCHING IT. TOTALLY BORING STUFF. TO ME THE MEMORY OF WATCHING IT WAS PROBABLY ASSOCIATED WITH THE GOOD TIMES AND CARE FREE LIFE THAT I WAS LIVING AS A KID. BUT WATCHING IT NOW WAS REALLY A DISAPPOINTMENT TO MY MEMORY. I WISH I LEFT WELL ENOUGH ALONE ! BUT THAT'S JUST ME !KIDS TODAY ARE SO LUCKY TO HAVE SPONGEBOB."
345178,1,Zero Stars!,"I was looking forward to Wen and it had arrived within a week of my initial order - very exciting.That's all to be excited about.After washing the hair (exactly as directed) more than once, my hair is left with a sticky film and no amount of washing out takes care of it until i re-wash with a ""regular"" shampoo.I cancelled my account immediately, returned all that I had, am still being charged and will continue to be charged for 4 months straight - don't fall into the trap of ""trying something out"". It's not a try out - you commit yourself to buying over $100 worth of products.I know better than to fall for this kind of idiocy, but I did it anyway. Never again!Wen is NOT worth it, folks!"
345185,1,still flawed,"The present state of the telecom industry would indicate that all the EDFAs needed for the next 3-5 years have already been built and are sitting on shelves in warehouses. This is fortunate. By the time the next generation of EDFAs are built this version of Desurvie's book should be as outdated as the first version was during the telecom ""boom"" of 1998-2000.This book does show some improvement over the first due to the inclusion of views of the other contributors. In the end, however, the pedantic style of Desurvie shines through, blurring any hope of a clear exposition.It is unfortunate that (with the notable exception of Becker, Olson, and Simpson) the brightest stars in this field have not contributed to the literature via review volumes. The addition of another hefty tome by Desuivre only succeeds in making a fairly straightforward subject opaque."
345265,1,Plush Doll whoopie,"$22.00 for this, well plush doll. Thats all it is. It doesn't talk or play music or tell time. But, it from disney! Wow. Not worth the money."
345281,1,Horrifying,"This storyline was absolutely horrifying to my 6 and 8-year olds, especially when the evil headmistress puts the cute white puppy, Santa Paws, into a burning incinerator...enough said. The screen writers and/or editors obviously are not parents."
345346,1,Not compatible with XP SP3,Do not buy if you have XP Service Pack 3 as this product will not work. After 1.5 hours on the 'phone last night with Linksys tech support they were able to tell me that I had to roll back to SP2 or to buy a different Linksys product. Not happy with this at all.
345402,1,"Eh, I guess sometimes you really do get what you pay for.","I purchased this cable to use to hook up my laptop to our television. It's been over a year & a half since I purchased it, and quite honestly, I'd forgotten I ever had - I tossed this cable in the garbage months ago because after the first few uses, it just didn't carry the picture correctly, and the slightest movement made things worse. I didn't use it that often so it was really a bummer."
345473,1,Rather boring,I would not recommend this book. It was hard to follow at times and not as fun to read compared to Maui revealed. On our last day we stayed at a place that had Maui Revealed and we were sorry we didn't have it in the first place.
345503,1,Description was deceiving,The description of the product was deceiving. The photo showed a router and 2 handsets. The description talked about the router and both handsets. All I received was 1 handset.
345547,1,Disgraceful marketing tactic,I think Skippy labels this product 'natural' to confuse people. There is NOTHING natural about adding sugar and palm oil. They want you to think it's just peanuts and salt. Anyone who does not read the list of ingredients is screwed!
345626,1,Christian Music God Doesn't Approve Of,"Thank you Creed for failing to revive grunge. Thanks for also influencing a bunch of s**tty bands on Wind-up records and such. Another thing, thanks for splitting up. If Nathan Gale were to shoot somebody other than the legendary Dimebag Darrell, he should either shoot Scott Stapp, Fred Durst, Chester Bennington OR Eminem."
345675,1,Not as fun as the original,I got this for my kids from Santa because one of my sisters and I used to love to play the original version of the game (with people). They have really went down in quality in the years since. The game was falling apart the first day. If I had spent much on this I would have been really disappointed.
345680,1,Disappointment,"This book contains many errors, in text and tests. It does not help you in explaining how Oracle functions.The examples used in this book are too simple to be of any help.Without any experience in Oracle, passing the test with this book alone is very unlikely.I would recommend buying a different book! (if available)"
345699,1,More a model than a toy,"Too small for children to get much use out of. Well built and sturdy, but just too small for anything but display. Returned it along with two others that I ordered."
345709,1,error laden,"I'm only thru a few chapters and there's alot of typos. Some of the typos are so far off it's incredible. Thank goodness for having the source code with it to see how it works. Only reason I bought this particular title because I need it for school. I hate I bought it. QUE books and the ""Special Edition Using"" series have always been good, but I think they may have rushed this book to press trying to beat others to print. Poor editing. I'm very disappointed."
345732,1,Must have worked for somebody...,"I purchased this probably 4 years ago, and it was touted as extremely easy to use... it wasn't. Analog conversion was a non starter using a Sony Handycam. I ended up getting it to work with a canon digital camcorder. Painful process. VERRY PAINFUL. Well here we go again 4 years later and I'm trying to do it again. The unit does not recognize the handycam. It doesn't recognize a handycam with Svideo. I figured I would try calling the tech support line... 12 rings then busy signal... maybe a different number now? Go to the company website... they don't even sell these things anymore... If they were sooo good and sooo easy to use, wouldn't they still be selling them?? Do the math people. I spent $190 on mine, and it has been a glossy black turd from day one..."
345770,1,Cotton Candy,"After having read Tyrell's ""Boy Clinton"" I was really looking forward to a good read. I am sorry to say that this book is fluff and certainly not worth the price."
345808,1,Disappointed,"So this little box arrives to the house. I am like ""where is the longer box with the tubes?"" No this was the only box that measures long enough for one door. This is going back."
345865,1,Why cant I stop watching this awful show?!,"I had to buy this because I watched all the season available on netflix and they ended with a cliffhanger but trust me, just as bad as all of the other seasons! Same things happen in every season. It's not creative or original."
345940,1,This is so unneccessary...,"Does this game really need a strategy guide? There is virtually NO single player game (only good for learning the maps and weapons). This is an online game which means nothing is static about it. Every game will be different based on the skills of the other players. Sure the guide will point out key sniping and camping positions, but you know what, most seasoned CS players already know the best sniping spots and they also HATE campers!!! You want a challenge, send me an invite. Gamertag=bukster"
345980,1,Not the right length,"Real quick and simple. I like Magnaflow cats, and have always used their direct fits in my other cars. For some reason though this one is only 15 1/4"" when the OEM in my car is 17"". It's way too short. Amazon and Mangnaflow both say it fits, but I was the one under the car, it doesn't fit... Also, Amazon's specs say it's 17"" but Magnaflow says on their website it's 15 1/4"". I wish I had looked that up before this ordering fiasco. 1 star is for misleading description, I'm sure if you can get it to fit it's a nice product."
345993,1,Misleading promotion on capability of Motown CD's,"I ordered the Motown Karoke CD's, which included 3 CD's with 40 songs. It cost 39.99 plus shipping and handling was additional. What I received, however was 1 Motown Chartbusters set, vols. 1-6. I was unable to use it with the new Karaoke machine, which I purchased for my family reunion. The ""G"" for graphics was no where to be found on the set I received. I was so disappointed about the Amazon misleading information, and most importantly, I had disapppointed my family.Disappointed and cautious about ordering anything else from Amazon.com"
346044,1,Arranged,"I was annoyed with this film from the very beginning. The two religious adherents are portrayed as virtuous, thoughtful, well spoken and modest and every other woman in the room is a two-bit whore who talks like a valley girl. Why do they always do that? Couldn't watch much past five minutes as I was choking on righteousness."
346073,1,Frothy,"Spin-offs of TV series are rarely as good as the original, and ""Private Practice"" is a perfect example. Some reviewers have cautioned us not to try to compare this to ""Grey's Anatomy,"" but that is impossible--for me, at least. ""Grey's Anatomy"" was about the journey of five young interns on their way to becoming surgeons. The first two or three seasons were fascinating, but then it faded, and out of that fade was born ""Private Practice.""Set in Los Angeles it is about doctors who treat people with holistic medicine, acupuncture, psychiatry, doctors who do not dress like doctors, doctors who drink white wine and look as if they just dropped in the office from the beach. The story lines are most often about people problems, rather than medical problems.And as such, I just didn't find it worth watching when there are so many other better things."
346086,1,dissapointing,"I love Gopnik's New Yorker work, but this was a real let down. The writing is good, but it rambles and is like he felt he must come up with an idea for a book - should have been an article. Just doesn't hold the interest."
346089,1,Circular Saw Cutting Guide,"When rough cutting, a good craftsman can follow a pencil line. An accurate straight cut requires a straight edge clamped to the material to be cut. This items attempts to shortcut that process and just doesn't work.Because it's a one item fits all device, it first has to be cut to fit your circular saw. The problem is that it has a minimal edge to support the circular saw when starting the cut, so you frequently start off in the wrong direction. Despite its being made from plastic, there was a lot of friction between it and my saw. which caused the whole unit to shift, making cuts less than perfect. My freehand cuts were just as good as cuts made with this device.Sears makes an item that is both cheaper and more useful.[...]They used to make a table that converted a circular saw into a 45/90 miter saw, that I bought 30 years ago."
346092,1,"If want to learn about XUML, definitively is not the book!","I bought this amazing labeled book ""Executable UML"", but its contents is a deception, at least. The author didn't respect the book title, filling the book with a lot of uml basics concepts. The most adequate rating for this ""book"" is not zero star, but a black hole, to preserve it far..far way from us."
346163,1,gross,was definitely looking forward to getting this and ended up being disappointed! i ordered this because i was trying to find the exact saf-t pops i had when i was a kid but it tasted weird.
346229,1,Bad design,Don't purchase. The new improved faucet attachment will only last a few months before it falls off. The threads on the faucet adapter strip and are not durable enough to last. I complained to PUR and they sent me a metal adaptor that lasted a few months before falling off. I re-installed with glue on the threads that lasted 3 months before falling off I am now stuck with two filters and a few replacement cartrdges. Don't waste your money like I did.
346233,1,Waste of money!,"We have gone through four of these in 3 months, they are made of plastic and the do not secure tightly to the faucet, if you try to tighten it to the faucet the plastic threads strip (very easily). Constant leaks from the sides, the whole things falls of the faucet making a mess. Don't waste your money on this poorly designed product. If they had a metal attachment with metal threads it would secure tightly to the faucet. It must have been designed to break so you could buy a replacment every couple of weeks!I just called their 1-800 number and low and behold, they have a free metal replacement adapter to help solve the problem. I guess they did not bother to do any quality control checks on the original product! Unless you call the 1-800 number, you won't know they have a soluton... I guess they figure most people will just throw the filter system away and forget about the $37 they paid for it!"
346238,1,Would not stay on faucet. Returned after one day!,"Purchased at our local bulk store. Took it home and installed correctly. Kinda heavy so it pulled on the faucet some which concerned me about messing with the plumbing in the long run. However, after one day it kept popping off the faucet when turned on. Water sprayed everywhere and made a huge mess. Poor quality. I returned right away and plan to spend more money on a nicer filter."
346301,1,Not Very Good,"I'll keep this short. I like all of David A. McIntee other Dr. Who books, but this was just plain boring. Part of the problem is that the preceding book in the series, Unnatural History, was fabulous. The ""surprise ending"" came out of nowhere with no real reason why. It's one of those books that you ""must"" buy but wish you hadn't. Sorry, David."
346305,1,Danielle Steel needs editors who work,"In The Ranch, Danielle Steel again proves that she can somehow get away with selling millions of copies when her grammar is horrendous. Please, Danielle Steel's editors, don't assume that we are stupid - either edit her books or enroll her in a community college course in basic English Grammar. Thank you."
346307,1,Maybe you'll have better luck than I,This went hay wire after a few months of use. The batteries were expensive also. I don't recommend this product but maybe I just got a faulty one. The control features were nice.
346310,1,Your average movie licensed game,"Home Alone for Genesis was beyond great, but this NES version is horrible.You play as Kevin, and you must avoid getting caught by the Wet Bandits for 20 minutes. You just run around the house setting traps on them.Going up/down the stairs is a chore, since you must be in a precise spot to do so.The traps look like TV screens. TV screens...not the TV itself.The characters look weird. Kevin's walking animation is awkward, and the Wet Bandits don't look like themselves.At least the music changes. Once you are outside the house, the music changes. The music switches back once you're back inside.If you get caught, the game is automatically over. No lives, no nothing.So don't bother purchasing this unless you're a collector and/or you want to play bad games."
346312,1,Needed a little more...,"This kind of film really needed some level of narration. Most of it is just random scenes of Amma or buildings, or streets, without any real context. It's good to see Amma and you do hear some of her verbal teachings and a few words from her devotees, but that's about it."
346333,1,Worst Shave Possible,"I do not like the double edge safety razor, even the cheap throw aways give you a bbs shave. Better to buy a different item."
346352,1,More Hot Rocks <<<<<< Hot Rocks,"More hot rocks is one of my least favorites, but Hot Rocks is one of my favorites. More hot rocks is a bunch of second rate songs just to fill an album. If this album were the norm for the Stones they never would have been big. Stick to Hot Rocks, and their other albums, skip this one."
346371,1,this isn't good at all.,"This game isn't very good. first, You have to go through lots of very difficult levels, The people spend forever talking, and you have to find some artifact to restore the world. you have to use psychic and magical powers lIke earth, wind, sun, and fire(which i don't like). so iwouldn't recommend this game to impatient gamers."
346454,1,TERRIBLe,This product was glitchy the moment I turned it on. I replaced the batteries multiple times trying to see if that would make a difference and it didnt. Withing 2 mins of using it the vibe completely died. Ive been having trouble finding a vibe that actually works and i thought that this would be the one. I am pretty upset with my purchase..
346517,1,Poor costumer service,"I ordered this product on April 24th, and they shipped it on May 5th trough USPS. The item was returned to sender on May 23th. Im still waiting for a refund since i no longer need the book.

346527,1,Brush got stuck in the vent,"Tried it with my vent which has almost a 90 degree curve at the beginning. The brush wasn't moving forward anymore so I reversed the drill, the brush to detached and stuck in the vent where I cannot reach it anymore. This is totally defective product, if I didn't have a problem before, now I most certainly do - 'the linteater brush stuck in my vent' where I can't reach it."
346533,1,Don't Waste Money on Refurbished.,I purchased this ipod and the first time the middle dial popped out. I returned the item and asked for it to be fixed only to receive another ipod that didn't function properly. The second ipod's battery wouldn't stay charged and the screen continued to show the apple icon when playing music. I recommend buying a brand new ipod versus refurbished anyday.
346740,1,dumb,"one of the worst movies ever. dont waste your time. i still cant believe i made it to the end. full of bad acting, stupid dialogue, and story glitches. just dumb. need to chew a dirty sock to rid my mouth of the taste."
346872,1,what are you thinking??,"I just have to say that Hilary Duff has no singing talent at all. The song she sang about Santa was so bad!The lyrics were so childish! I'm sorry, but her voice sounds like a 4-year-old and she can't dance. Oh,I hate the show ,too."
346887,1,I was not impressed,"Folks use your common sence and save the 12 bucks on this one. This book would be good for any one under 16, but for even themost sheltered adult this book will be a waste of your time. Good Luck"
346996,1,2 Strikes Is Enough,"I must add my voice to the poor reviews for this product. I also experienced trouble with this unit, striking out twice. The first probe that I had did not work from the beginning. During the first use out of the box, despite my being very careful to set it up properly and use it carefully, the readout on the digital display changed to ""HHH"". No matter what I tried it wouldn't reset to read a temperature. I returned the unit to Amazon and received a replacement. I was again very careful setting up the replacement probe and the probe worked at room temperature. However, as soon as I started using the unit and it raised above room temperature it started reading high, then showing random temperatures, then again changed to ""HHH"". Even when I let it return to room temperature it remained on ""HHH"". This item is not reliable and I don't recommend anyone purchase it."
347116,1,video and audio lag,"Gamebridge installed easily. However the best video quality was achieved using dscaler software, not the included software. Reason for buying was using with xbox360. When playing the games, there was a lag of about a second or less. Disasterous when playing on line. The video quality was not as good as other capturing devices. It appears that this is probably the closest you'll be able to get to playing in real time on a laptop. If capturing is what you want, spend a little more on another device. If gaming is what you want, you'll be dissapointed."

347159,1,LENS ERROR WTF??,"i bought this camera 3 months ago and it was taking some really great pictures.Then suddenly, while i turned it on a week ago, it came up with lens error and made a weird buzzing sound.I have researched this problem and it has happened to many people.just google nikon coolpix lens error.i would highly suggest that you should get a cannon powershot instead of a nikon coolpix."
347205,1,This book is misleading,"I bought this book hoping a ""city boy"" like me can learn something about farming. Instead what I got was a bunch of vague mush that is full of the authors personal agenda. The book is all about how the author hates big establishment corporations. It is all about his own environmental philosophy and very little about nuts and bolts farming. A waste of money."

347318,1,Didn't work,"I used this product for 2 months. The only difference I saw in my breast was that they were more round. They didn't increase in size.Other things I did notice:-Made me more sleepy-Calmed me down when I felt anxious-Killed my sex drive-Didn't mess up my menstrual cycleI stayed away from caffeine, chocolate, fats, teas, exercised less. I did everything the way I was suppose to. Yet, no growth.I have had more success with the Noogleberry Breast Pump. I've been using it for a year and went from a small A to a big B."
347326,1,This book title fits...,I initially bought this book for a friend but then used a couple of times for reference when the person I leant it to asked questions... After a couple of times reading sections I quickly noticed a style in the author I had seen before. Not realizing it was an author I had read before and swore I never would buy a book from again I missed it... but here he is again parading through the book like he is some programming genius and you are some idiot who should not be learning to program in the first place. The book title fits the way he treats his reader... I found his technique to be even more insulting and arrogant.
347330,1,Nothing more than noise,"Completely pathetic. Not only does Blink 182 have nothing to say, they would lack the musical skill to say it even if they did. A friend of mine once defended it - ""C'mon, it's punk music."" Is that an excuse for it being bad music? Their drummer seriously needs to learn to depart from the one rhythm that he appears to know - the constant 1-2-1-2-1-2 beat present in EVERY LAST ONE of their songs. The guitar, bass, and drums always blend together into a rhythmless noise - the first trick in the book to hide the fact that you don't know how to play your intruments. As they demonstrate in every song on the cd, they have nothing to sing about and their popularity rests entirely on their shock value and obnoxiousness, a sure-fire strategy for roping in my fellow teenage boys."
347344,1,"The ""new Breed"" of Missionary","All I can say about these Catholic priests is TOO LITTLE,TOO LATE. Here is a parable about this situation. Suppose you had a Labrador retriever that you owned for many years and really loved. Now suppose some stranger came along and before your eyes beats your dog to death, ""for your own good"". Now 5 years the same person comes along and says ""Hey, I should not have done that. Here take this Jack Russel Terrier."" Would that make the stranger a good person? Would that make up for what he did to your dog.Can a new dog of different breed make up for the brutal destruction of the one you had and loved for so many years?"
347348,1,The book I only hate in goosebumps series,"To people who don't like Goosebumps because its not scary. What do you expect? It's for 7 - 12 year old kids, meaning not very frightening but a mysterious ending. Goosebumps is a mystery book in a sort way, because every time you read goosebumps series, you wonder how the storyline is going to be connected to the ending. I started to read goosebumps at the age of 8, and never once did I thought goosebumps was scary. (I read almost every book of the Original Goosebumps Series). But I still love goosebumps, and R.L.Stine is the authour that made me wanting to be an authour. So the bottom line is, don't read goosebumps if you want chill on your back. If you want a chill, I'd say watch the movie ""The Grudge"". LOL!This book is the only book that I hate in the goosebumps series. It was oh-so boring I had to slap myself to keep me from sleeping. This piece was shocking to me as R.L.Stine is my all time fave authour."
347387,1,Seriously though,It's funny how music fans invest so much emotion and time into these bands that fly so far below the radar that they will never have an effect on other bands and in ten years time (at its extreme) will be largely forgotten and sold back to the cd store for the next newer repo-bands. People that don't buy into the major label bands jettison the fact that many of these musicians (please don't call them artists) have had a lasting effect on other musicians. Miles Davis for example. Hendrix for example. Simon and Garf for example. Ask yourself this if you're deciding against a major label band vs a poor man's Joy Division: Was I missing out on something genuine when my dollars went towards this garbage instead. Think about how little time you have on Earth and how better spent it would be to go with Bill Evans. Maybe when you're on your deathbed you'll realize how much a wasted life you were by devoting so much to so little.
347413,1,Disappointing,"Given Lucie-Smith's vast experience in the field, I expected a more definitive work on the male figure in the history of art. I found it to be much short of that. The scholarship and the illustrations just don't measure up to anything like a seminal statement on the subject. In fact, there are many instances when the choice of illustrations is inexplicable. This is not a book that I have kept for my art library."
347529,1,If Andy Warhol were to draw Batman,"I am not out to convince anybody of anything..When it comes to 'subjective' opinions people like what they like and it is a ridiculous waste of time to try to change their minds///My review is to warn people who, like me, favor 'traditional art', music and drama where you can always understand the dialog and the art makes sense.....The animation in this film is like walking through a modern art gallery, dark, and mumbled...But then I am one who never liked Frank Miller's distored bodies in his Dark Knight series....This film is for a particular taste but not mine....but I just may be an old foggie whose type is slowly vanishing from the scene..."
347575,1,DOES NOT FIT 2007+ WRANGLER,This is a simple product and probably works fine for whatever models it was designed for but it DOES NOT work for the 2007+ Wrangler. I was able to make it work for the rear sound bar speakers with modifications but they are worthless in the front. If you have a JK look for another solution and don't buy these.
347594,1,Not worth it!,"Not really Tai Chi. More like dancing, bit really a training tape, Would have liked to see more real tai chi."
347745,1,Terrible Turntable,"This turntable is extremely unreliable and a waste of money. I wanted to get a turntable that played 78s as well as 33s, and thought that this would be a nice choice. I had previously owned a Garard 42M for 30 years, but it only played 33s and occasionally had wow, so I thought this would last for another generation.About a year after I bought it, the player stopped working, and after many attempts to get it going over several days, it began to play at a speed that was so slow that the sound was horribly distorted. Now it does not play at all. It is not the belt, but to repair it now would cost more than it is worth, and who knows how long it would work after the repair? I think I am going to go back to my Garard or try another old turntable."
347756,1,UUgggg,I did not like these at all. Gave me severe heartburn. I suppose they were working. I got really hot. But I will not get them again. I will try something else
347881,1,icellltech 312 hearing aid battery's,"don't waste your money! Spend an extra few $ and get a name brand, i have found these battery's last about half as long as EverReady"
347888,1,A dissapointment,"The author writes well, but nothing he says is so profound or comforting. In fact, at times it felt kind of insincere and glib, like he was using other people's sorrows (including his own family's) to make himself appear deep. I agree with the comment's of the other reviewer: Naomi Levy's To Begin Again is by far more helpful, the only one that belongs in the class of When Bad Things Happen To Good People."
347962,1,Winter Prey,"I'm sorry to say I stopped reading this book at chapter 2 because I didn't like the start of the book & it didn't hold my interest. The only book in this series I enjoyed was Rules of Prey. Books 2,3,4,&5 wasn't interesting to me I hope book 6 is better."
347975,1,Boring,"I'm sorry, but this was the most boring book I've ever read. It's so repetitive, the author writes about the same thing over and over and over, again and again and again. It was a total waste of time reading this book, I only read half of it and that was enough."
347984,1,Deja Vu All Over Again,"Symptomatic is a new novel about being biracial in America. It is the second novel on that same theme by author Danzy Senna. That previous work, Caucasia was heavily praised by critics. Unfortunately, Symptomatic does not break new ground in the biracial theme. If anything, it reads like a rewrite of Caucasia.As such, Symptomatic is a frustrating book for those who believed that Senna would be a major new voice on America's literary landscape."
348042,1,Not made in the US,"Note that the 94A ball valves are the Apollo ""economy"" series and are not made in the US. Quality is about on par with other generic made-in-China ball valves. The one I received had a loose stem packing nut from the factory and it leaked when opening/closing. After removing the handle and tightening the nut it no longer leaks."
348055,1,hymns for the family of god,"I ordered this item as a gift for someone who needed a spiral backed hymnbook with a hard back for use at the piano. I was sent a package of hole-punched pages with with no hardback and no spiral backing. They were just loose pages. It has been a month now and no explanation has been offered for the discrepancy between the Amazon description and the actual product by Amazon. I returned it, but I still do not have a hard bound spiral backed hymnbook."
348066,1,Very Basic,"This is a very basic book, could be great for an instructor of kids or a 4H group. Not what an adult rider would want."
348077,1,"Great Fan I'm Sure, if it WORKED.","On a 98 degree day in the city, I opened the box and installed the fan in my window. When I turned it on, it didn't work. After checking all the outlets, etc, I finally had to take it out and send it back."
348150,1,Find another solution,"I have only one set of RCA cables running thru my wall into my 50"" plasma. I wanted to hook up the wii and the DVD player, so I was in the market for a switch. I read other reviews about interference, but I thought I'd get lucky. I didn't. There are slow rolling bands of dark picture that constantly scan the screen. If you're any kind of TV fan you'd never accept this. I'm just too lazy to return it. Avoid this product and get a remote controlled a/v switch."
348162,1,Sadistic on many levels,"This book starts out as a good historical novel but soon drags the reader over one pressure ridge after another of disturbing monotony. When something finally happens the author seems to spend an indecent amount of ink describing in gruesome detail the various modes of violent death he inflicts on his doomed characters - while stretching the credibility factor to the breaking point.I guess when writing a story with an ending everyone knows, it's understandable that the writer might be compelled to take some liberties and add some flourishes. This writer has chosen to devise a menagerie of sadistic and cruel ways for these poor sods to die, with long, pointless chapters in between. That pretty much sums up the novel.The mysterious creature adds nothing to the narrative and is explained away in the final pages as the manifestation of some sort of Eskimo spiritual dribble.Franklin's failed expedition becomes the best metaphor I can think of for this novel."
348165,1,Poor service,I ordered this book and another book called International Management Behavior. They were not delivered. I have not yet been refunded my money for International Management Behavior even though I never got that book.
348190,1,Boring,"Puzzle after puzzle after puzzle with very little action or story. The graphics are from the last century and still too much for my xbox from time to time. Most boring game ever. I usually play all games to the end, but this one I had to stop in the middle to avoid death from boredom."
348261,1,Unmitigated Hogwash,As a veteran TDCJ administrator [28-years] I have to say I've never read a more self serving pile of criminal coddling swill in my life. Mr. Martin and his ghost writer need get out of those plush-carpet offices and hang out on a real prison unit for awhile - meet some real live convicts - get a good dose of reality - before they start soliciting for the Judge Justice humanitarian of the decade award.
348264,1,Must insert the damn CD every time you play,"This game is okay as a timewaster between emails, but even after you install it you'll have to locate and insert the CD every time you play. Too bad for you if you have other projects that require the CD drive. Very annoying to find this out after paying $20.00 for what I thought would be a fully functional game."
348397,1,winter not so good,"In the summer this humidor is fine, but works horribly during winter. Probably due to lower ambient humidity. Although the seal seems very good (close test), itt is not very good at keeping the humdity. Invest a little more money if you live in an area with colder winters."
348419,1,There are much better OO book available,Poor writing and editing make this book very difficult to read! Uninspired coverage of OO design leaves me wondering where these 5-star ratings came from. More in-depth OO design articles can be found online.

Unfortunately, there isn't much room on the inside for cat business and if you have a large cat, it will hang its hiney over the edge onto the stairs and produce a pee waterfall.I don't recommend this at all!"
348539,1,A Tad out of date,This book probably came before MaxR2. Why they're still selling it I don't know. You'd be better off doing the tutorials that come with Character Studio than buying this one.
348599,1,steaming mad,the disks were missing.. just got an empty case soooo mad!!!!! I know getting used is tricky but I expect to at least get the disks
348670,1,Stainless Pans,"These pans are so bad that I actually threw them away! The bottoms are so thin that everything burned. They weren't worth the cost of shipping them back to Amazon. Oh well. You ""win some and you lose some"". Surely lost on this one. But, since we win so often with Amazon, we still feel that we are way ahead."
348679,1,A Dirty Marketing Trick!,"Beware! This film has been misleadingly re-packaged and re-marketed in 2010 with the faces of three big kung fu stars on the cover BUT this is NOT a martial arts film! It is a self-indulgent Chinese propaganda film that is slow, boring and long-winded. Even though the new dvd cover states 'starring Jet Li, Jackie Chan and Donnie Yeung' these actors get bit parts for a matter of a few seconds - Jackie Chan takes some finding as a bespectacled Journalist with a moustache. If you are looking for a 'House of the Flying Daggers' type kung fu movie, then save your money! If you want a Chinese history lesson, then also save your money and buy something that is not so tedious and innacurate historically."
348686,1,Not comfortable,"I had similar gardening gloves that I'd cut a fingertip off of with my gardening sheers. So I bought these to replace them. My old gloves (though well worn in) were MUCH more comfortable. I don't bother wearing these, as I'd rather rub my fingers against my plants than rub them against the fabric of these gloves. :-/"
348839,1,waste of great location.,director completely blew it with this horrible movie. acting was insanely bad. story was lame as hell. confusing yet i didnt care at the same time. stupid ending.i had heard so many good things about this movie and that cover poster is kinda awesome....just kinda though.boring waste of time. caruso dude is a awful actor.skip this.
348847,1,"No improvement over the original, no worse either","If you already have the original cut of the SG-1 pilot on DVD as part of a season set, don't bother buying this one. If you don't have it and don't want to buy a whole season, go ahead and get this one.Apart from removing the brief nude scene (whether that's an improvement or not is up to you) the changes are so trivial that they just make no real difference at all. The new special effects are well done, but the original special effects were just as good. It's interesting to see the extra lines of dialog here and there (none are whole new scenes, just fragments of scenes) but makes little overall difference.In summary: it's slightly different from the original but not in any way that makes it better, worse, or worth having both in your library. I give it two stars against the overstated promise of real differences."
348848,1,Feel Good Nonsense,"This books is at best feel good nonsense for brain-washed kids. At worst, this is a traitorous pamphlet.Worst of all, though, is that it is a boring story that tries to brainwash kids and make them lefties."
348886,1,Deciphering Cryptography,"I have the hardest time with muddled thought's misreasoned lines that can't connect the dots. This is what passes for Christology? Give me somebody else's heresy. The old kind, not one that's just been released in sheepskin camouflaging the wolfbeast."
348940,1,Lost and not found,I thought the book was poorly written. I found myself lost. Trying to make sense of the story. I did not like how it kept going back and forward with no easy flow. I find myself mad at the lost time I took to read this book to only find that this was not the first or last book in this series.
348994,1,Not a book for those who want to learn ASP.net,"If you want to learn asp.net, this book is not the one. All it does is talk."
349010,1,If you liked the book...DON'T SEE THIS,"What an unmitigated piece of garbage. Richard Harris is always wonderful but he's the only redeeming feature of this perverse twisting of Dumas' classic. See the Gérard Depardieu mini-series instead. (If you can ignore the fact that he doesn't look starved in the Chateau d'If, it's wonderful.) Except for Harris the acting is poor. The people are unrealistic and are, at best, caricatures of Dumas' creations. The writer has committed a crime."
349112,1,You have to be kidding,"This is a joke right? You need to buy a book to track your mail in rebates? How about...make copies of everything, write the date you submitted on each piece of paper, put it all in a file folder. Rebate comes in, you take out those pieces of paper. You're done. If you really want to get fancy, hang a calendar on your wall and every time you submit a rebate, look at the rebate to see how long until it comes back (6-8 weeks, etc.) and write a note on the calendar that far into the future so you know to check up on the rebate if you haven't received it yet."
349134,1,Doesnt Work On Windows 7.....otherwise 5 stars...,"Doesn't run on windows 7,too bad, cause Doom I is one of the great shooters of all time. If anyone knows how to make it run, email me or post...thanks everyone!!!1"
349175,1,The Guide that Fails to Guide,"I honestly feel cheated having bought this little book. The title is misleading, for it is not so much a guide as a poorly written memoir. I was looking for information and found nothing useful here. If you're looking for a thoughtful and eloquently written memoir see Jan Morris's classic ""Conundrum."" If you're looking for a source of information for potential transsexuals - well, I haven't found one yet. You'd do well to just skip this one."

349194,1,Dangerous,"This pan is dangerously unbalanced, especially when it sits on certain kinds of burners.

Be careful!"
349286,1,Horrible service,"I loved the phone, and I don't think any other phone in current market can beat it but lags with patchy and horrible service. It has all functions anyone can ask for, including palm type, easy link to computer for synching, very nice camera, awesome screen and the dial. Only cons, I see is the size of it and the material it is made of, once it is dropped, marks and cracks on it really hurts if you are attached to this beautiful phone."
349324,1,SnoozeFest.com,"I HATE this book. I had to read it for a Gender & Women's Studies class and I couldn't wait for it to be over, but the more I read, it seems like the longer & more boring the book got. I ended up not even finishing because I couldn't take reading one sentence. I'll admit that the movie was not as boring as I thought it would be, but I seriously don't understand what would possess someone to read this book for fun.--Like who's into this type of stuff? & like seriously Ulrich, hundreds & hundreds & hundreds of pages were NOT needed & that's not my ADHD talking.I'm only on here to sell this crap because our rip off bookstore will only give me $1.50 for something that I should have never bought in the first place.-__-My grandma's book club probably wouldn't even read this book.I pray all of you hit Netflix & watch the movie because this book will make fall asleep & fall asleep fast."

349354,1,"Very dim display, even on bright setting",Even in a room with most of the lights off and the TV on it's hard to see the clock due. Even visitors with 20/20 vision have commented on it. Dim numbers defeats the purpose of a large display.
349376,1,"Prints fine, eats the ink","The printer prints just fine but it eats the ink. So many problems with the ink cartridges alone! It would try to print something and then an error would come up telling me to check the ink cartridges. So I would, then I'd replace it with a brand new cartridge and it would say the same thing after 5 printings tops! I'm not printing ink filled pages, I'm printing regular text, that's it. It's very frustrating, especially because of how expensive ink is."
349412,1,Terrible burns!,"I tried this product and left it on for the recommended 2 minutes. It felt like it was burning, but I figured that was just because it was working. Well, I removed it, noticed some hair still there, so as the package said I could put it on those areas again for another 2 minutes. After that I was in so much pain. It removed the hair but gave me 2nd degree burns on my face! Very Very painful. My skin oozed for a coupole of days and then scabbed over. It looked horrible! Please give me my hair back. I'd prefer the blonde fuzzy hair to the burned painful, ugly skin I ended up with! Wish I could give it 0 stars!"
349448,1,Not Even Worth Reading Through Anymore....,"I used to be a huge fan of Stephanie Laurens....(I've read every one of her books....) She used to be 1 of my most favorite authors, but I'm really sorry to say that she's not any more....(In the few recent yrs., I've simply been reading all of hers just bcs. I've gotten into the habit of it, not bcs. they R as sensual & intriguing as they used to be anymore....)This book started out interestingly enough in the beginning, but it all went downward very quickly after the first several chapters, & finally, the story got so-o-o-o boring after I read through about half the book that I ended up just skipping through most of the later half of the book to finish reading this book after reading just the last few chapters....(I used to buy everyone of SL's new books, but I do believe that these R no longer worth buying & no longer even worth reading through.... Truely sad, but true....)"
349491,1,too much setup required,"I never got far enough to play the game. It might be cool. It requires that you buy another connector for some tv's and you have to get to the back of your tv to make it work. Something, which for me, is not worth the large amount of effort that it would take me. They should let people know this before the purchase. Also this product will not work with LCD monitors or projection t.v.'s. Wish they would have told me that before I paid for it."
349533,1,mauser self-loading pistol is disappointing,"From internet I learned that this is one of the 3 main reference books on the Mauser C96 Broomhandle; and it is considered a disappointment. However the price is much more affordable than the 2 other books, so I still decide to buy a copy.The book is full of pictures but not of the high quality one would expect nowadays on the internet. The text carries some information, but no more than the several websites dedicated to the Mauser Broomhandle.Since I bought the book after consulting the websites dedicated to Broomhandle, I really felt that there is no new information to be learned from this book!"
349557,1,Based on Tabloids,This book is based on tabloid news and is not to bebelieved. The worst book ever written on or about Nirvana.It does have some cool pictures though.
349561,1,Kurt Would Have His Revenge...,"Get Real! I started to read this book immediately after reading Come As You Are (which was absolutely amazing!) but had to put this down before I tore it up in disgust. It's information was from the very magazines and articles that frusterated Kurt with all their lies. Seems like the author did no investigating on his own what-so-ever. In fact he didn't even talk to the people that really knew Kurt in those days. No Chris, Dave, Courtney, producers, friends, etc. And the so called Quotes we're very questionable. He wouldn't say who they were from. I flipped through the pages and found one discrepancy after another. Christopher wrote like an enemy of Kurt's so if you want the truth, get a book like Come As You Are!"

349622,1,Move away from the VCR!,"I see from other reviewers that I am not the only one who has noticed that Christina Dodd has watched ""Sabrina"" a few too many times. Unfortunately, unlike others, I do not see this novel as an ""homage"", but rather outright copying. I realize that there are few truly original plots left in the world, but the first half of this book borrows so heavily from the movie that I can almost see the stage directions in the margins of the script, excuse me, text. Since I was on vacation and didn't have another book with me, I slogged through to the end and ended up being mildly entertained. However, I have come to expect much better from Christina Dodd and hope that whatever publishing house deadline demands led to this heavy-handed plot borrowing do not present a similar problem in the future."

But then is anyone realy supprised that such a book is coming from Llewellyn. He has three books currently in print with Llewellyn, they are Magick for Beginners: The Power to Change Your World, Magical I Ching, Time Travel: A New Perspective."

In real life from more than 12"" away it is indistinguishable from a round hunk of jade. The cuts are so shallow they simply don't pick up enough light to even show it's been carved. Literally everyone has had to ask what it is . . ."
349788,1,Can't feel the breeze,"Looks cute, but I sugggest you don't buy this item since it does not provide hardly any airflow. Dont't waste your money."
349792,1,...I've heard this before,"Apparently Mr. Benassi fell off the boat to the island of new ideas... From the thumping basslines to the over vocoded vocals this album seems to be the same old thing you would expect to hear from Benassi. If your looking for variants of ""Satisfaction"" well my friend, your in luck. The only difference from it to this is minor chord changes and slighty differnt lyrics. I was really hoping for something different but instead I was let down hard. The tracks are catchy but again, it's almost like they only know how to make 4 different sounds. Hopefully the next album release will be fresh and different but with the same energy that the single ""Satisfaction"" had. Try it for yourself, maybe with the money they can buy some new equipment."
349800,1,Too wordy with little meat,"Was highly recommended by a friend, was really disappointed to read as the author tried hard to fill up the pages with humor and other unrelated verbiage to give book some shipping weight. The salient points could have been communicated in an article vs. a book."
349811,1,Almost perfect,"Great screen, battery life, nice keyboard, wireless is perfect.BUTThe CPU will not run faster than 797MHZ on the one I bought, and HP admitted it is a flaw. They claim a BIOS fix will solve the problem and the fix will be available ""soon"" - I would wait until the problem is fixed befor buying this otherwise very nice machine."
349831,1,Not Intuitive,"This product is NOT intuitive and there is no reason for it not to be. I tried very hard to use it when I first bought it, and now regret throwing the money away."
349846,1,Not worth the money,"While this book is very nice looking, it's not truly helpful. The spells are foolish, and probably best suited for those who aren't familiar with the practice. Why? Because the spells themselves aren't practical, and in my opinion, are poorly written. While the author chooses to contantly preach about the ethics of practicing witchcraft this book would be best suited to 'fluffy bunnies'. Perhaps some of the spells are workable, but it's not necessary to have use such impractical materials. Personally, I think if you choose to purchase this book you'll find it much more useful if you simply take any ideas you might like and incorporate them into a spell you've written; you'll probably get more accomplished this way."
349908,1,"GINGER GROUND FRESHLY PACKED IN LARGE JARS, spices, herbs, seasonings",The ginger is not strong enough - have to put a spoonful to get the taste.Mccormick ginger is so much better -just a pinch is enough.
349909,1,My hopes dashed,"I had high hopes for the Kensington iPod FM transmitter and I was very excited when it arrived. Alas, my hopes were dashed when I tried it out and checked its reception on each of the eight positions that this product allows. On each there is constant interference, poor sound and often, complete loss of the signal. It was unusable. I should mention that I live in a large city and there is probably a lot of congestion on the FM radio, but there wasn't any position that delivered even mediocre quality. Guess, I'll have to continue breaking the law and listen to my iPod through headphones while driving....."
349930,1,"Nice photos, but not great soap","The photos are wonderful. The recipes are only varied according to the eo's that are used. The amounts of eo's would not apply for pure eo's. Soapmakers beware! Start with a small amount of eo, find out how it effects your skin and those using your soap, you can always adjust.non tallow soap is too soft to make for everyday use. I use my soap for everything, including the laundry. I would not be able to do this with a vegetable soap. Tallow also cuts the cost, and last a lot longer."
350149,1,Don't Bother with this Clock,"We purchased this clock based on the four star reviews from others. Please aware, however, that this clock stopped working properly after 41 days. The ""time"" button decided to fail, so we are no longer able to set the time--a pretty basic function of a clock. So back to Amazon it goes!"
350172,1,I thought it was some kind of sick joke...apparently not,"""Mommy! Mommy!"" cries a little sissy boy. ""Can we go to the store and buy Jak and Daxter because i am such a spoiled little brat?"" The mom should reply ""Well you are a little spoiled brat so you get to get beaten!!"" After hours of reckless beating the bruised boy asks again ""Now can we go get the game?"" the mom should say ""That game is to stupid for you. its to stupid for anyone. Ha Ha Ha!!! You dont get the game!!! Now you little brat go do the dishes before i conk your scrawny little butt!"""
350204,1,MADE IN CHINA,"I was looking for dog treats on Amazon that aren't made in China and Dingo came up. I've checked this brand before and unless they've changed where they manufacture Dingo's from, they care made in China."
350207,1,What a hunk of junk,"So we bought this as our daughters (BIG) Christmas present last year. A month later, the picture completely quit. Not happy at all with this product. Waste of money."
350267,1,"Try the ""How to Draw Manga"" series instead","I bought this book at the beginning of my interest in manga, and the only help it gave me was the Japenese phrases at the back. I keep the book around for that reason, but not much else. If you're a budding manga artist, or on more advanced level, I highly recommend the ""How to Draw Manga"" line of books instead of this one. The ""How to Draw Manga"" series covers a wide spread of manga topics, from starting basics to advanced pen and tone techniques. They even have books dealing specifically with shojo and shonen art! (I have already pre-ordered the Costume Encyclopedia that comes out in Feb. 2003!) Mr. Hart's work is good if you want a reference for WESTERN cartooning, but not for manga and animé."
350297,1,Meh,"This book was okay. It did not grab me the way many books do. I finished it and the story was all right, but the pacing of the book was not good. Exciting fights read slowley, conversations dragged on, and so on. If you like characters that are simple to understand and a simple story this is a good book for you. I would defiantly rate it as a 'beach book.' It's a book you can pick up and put down and have it out of your head as soon as it's down. Sorry for the mediocer review but it's not a wonderful book."
350301,1,Great pan but takes too long,This is a great aebleskiver pan but it's just not practical. It takes way to long to make enough to feed a family.
350326,1,Very Unsafe! Do Not Buy!!!!!!,"The straps on this car seat keep coming loose while I am driving!!! I thought it was something that I was doing wrong at first but now I know it is not. This is suppose to be one of the safest baby products that you buy and yet it is the most unsafe!!! I am so dissapointed that a big name company like Eddie Bauer could sell such a useless piece of equipment. (Not as important, but the wheels also squeak. Very annoying, but not dangerous)."
350432,1,This book is weak!,"It is often the case that one has to purchase a book just because it is the reference text book for the course. Well, I got this book and I found that they it does not have what it takes to be a reference book. The only reason this book was referred to as the reference text book is because the instructor is friend with that Cruz guy! I am going to sell it when the semester is over, because it is VERY expensive for the cheap information that is included in it. My recommendations: get for example spectrometric identification of organic compounds 7th ed silverstein 2005 or any newer editions. Funny thing is that the second edition of Cruz book is that it has mistakes which were not found in the 1st edition LOL!"
350464,1,Nice reproduction of the 11 cup original but underpowered,"The size is perfect, the accessories are the right ones but it is very underpowered. Just doesn't perform like a Cuisinart. Even with just a couple garlic cloves or a half onion (coarsely chopped) it slows down badly under any load and takes forever to finish the processing. Not worth the money, buy a big one or use a knife."
350490,1,Broke the first day recieved within one hour. droped it and it went to peices.,"The pen broke the first day within one hour, i would not recommend spending your money for somthing that breaks the first day."
350514,1,horrible coffee grinder,"I used this coffee grinder for 1 yr and all of sudden it broke.majority of time, u have to stop and stir otherwise coffee doesn't get grind evenly."
350518,1,stay away,"grinder #1 died the first time we used it to grind 12 cups worth of beans, returned it and received grinder #2 which worked for 11 batches of beans then died.....grinder #2 is in the trash and will avoid Cuisinart coffee related products."
350520,1,didn't have it long!,"I recieved this grinder for Xmas. We were so excited to have a ""nice"" coffee grinder. Well, it WAS nice. After 6 uses it completely died. After I saw how low this item was reviewed, I guess I should expect that. It looks like I'll be trying the Krups grinder next."
350527,1,The quality is lacking.,"These are not what you'd expect from Wusthof. The Wusthof symbol on the handle is a STICKER (!!!) which bleaches out after washing. Also, after 1 months use and washing, we're getting rust spots. While these knives are sharp, they are not holding up appearance wise. Very disappointed."
350554,1,quickly broke down,"I agree with the other reviewers who write that this thing leaks and is a bit dangerous. Ours started leaking gradually, but now at only 4 months of use it leaks so much that it's unusable. The steam burns were also not my favorite part of my morning. We'll be getting another egg cooker, but it won't be by Cuisinart."
350576,1,What a pile of Crap,"I can't tell you how bad this sucked.This should be called washed up chicks with really bad Boob jobs.I should have looked at a review first, but I was in a hurry when I orderd this pile of crap.I should return it but I am just taking it as a lesson learned."
350621,1,basic-oriented book,ROI is a wide and critical factor in business management. The book title represents high expectations but didn't offer new thinking nor advanced models of ROI.ROI calculations should focus more on finnancial perspectives rather than verbal explanations. Using Excel in any ROI calculations is highly recommended!Dr. Hillel Avihai
350696,1,some of you are talking about A Director Prepares,"These are supposed to be reviews of Viewpoints, the book about Bogart's technique. Some of you are reviewing A Director Prepares (which I recommend more). Don't get mixed up. They're very different texts."
350706,1,How bad could it get?,"Lisa Jackson's later work is good, so I thought I'd pick up this one too. Please, don't waste your time like I did mine. The characters are weak and annoying."
350844,1,Get Serious,"Garry must be desperate to allow his name to be attached to this product. There are half a dozen free programs that do what Chessmate does, several in the price range that are superior (e.g. Majestic Chess), and many that, for a bit more, can really play chess (Fritz 8; Rebel 12; Chessmaster 9000). These last 3 also have didactic funtions that are greatly superior to those of Chessmate. If you want to beat up a computer program, Fritz and company can be suitably lobotomized with a little fiddling; if you want to get serious about chess, Kasparov Chessmate is not the way to go."
350857,1,Save your money. It doesn't work.,My daughter has an extreme reaction to poison ivy and we bought some of this stuff to help her get rid of it by washing with it. She tried it for two summers with absolutely no results. We finally took her to a skin doctor who told us that this product doesn't work and gave us a prescription wash. The Rx wash works much better. Tecnu is a waste of your money. Don't buy it.
350863,1,Doesn't work.,"Flat out doesn't work. Like the retractable cable, but it doesn't connect to my pc nor does it power my phone. Do not buy unless you want to throw away $2-3."
350869,1,"Such a hassle, didn't work.","Sometimes these cheap iphone accessories work and other times it seems you get what you pay for. For this particular product it's the latter. It worked sometimes, most of the times I'd get a message saying that your phone isn't compatible with the charger. Until I unplugged it and plugged it back in 25 times in order for it to work, only to walk back to it to see the same error message. The retractable part worked and saved space, but not really worth it when it doesn't charge your phone. I usually don't write reviews on Amazon, but this product is a piece of junk."
350892,1,Garbage 4 Life,I have watched this numerous times & it's ridiculously STOOPID! The camera work is a joke & could have been recorded on a cell phone at the time for better quality. Also the cameos by Carrot Top & former UFC light Heavyweight Champion Rashad Evans adds to the goofiness of the movie. I can't believe the director was allowed to do sequels after this. The only good thing on the movie is the speech by Tony Tomahawk which turns out being in the deleted scenes. In the scene Tony teaches Toro about the streets in a weird but sense making analogy about lions & sebras....
350946,1,What a disappointment,"As a big fan of Faye Kellerman I was really looking forward tothis book being published. I bought it the day it came out. I washugely disappointed in it. It wasn't interesting, it wasn't well plotted and I was saddened by her choice to denigrate the Mormon faith. I have really loved reading her Rina Lazarus books and learning about the Jewish faith. I have respected the character of Rina Lazarus and her devotion. So I was quite surprised that Faye Kellerman could show such a lack of respect to another faith. It was also factually incorrect, in one scene she describes a Mormon girl at her first communion wearing a cross necklace. Mormons do not celebrate first communion, and they never use the symbol of the cross. Did she not do her research? How difficult would it have been to find out? It makes me wonder about the rest of her facts. How sad."
350970,1,Wayward Widow,"This was like reading about a bratty 10 year old who needs attention. The first half of the book centers on all of Lady Julianna's misdeeds. After reading about all of these I found it hard to like her when she started to change. The hero, Martin, was even disgusted with her for the most part. All Julianna had to do was shed a tear and his opinion of her changed and he began to pursue her. I found it really hard to get attached to these characters. The writing was good so I will try another of Nicola Cornick's books."
350976,1,Delightful craziness,"I really enjoyed this book for the outright silliness of it. God forbid my daughter should ever see it. The only thing that dampened my enjoyment was the thought that someone might actually take it seriously. We're Christian and respect a diversity of viewpoints but, wow, this thing is nuts."
351039,1,The Druids,"Tim Warren's review echoes my reaction. This an overly assertive and very speculative book. The bias toward Celtic civilization and culture becomes quite grating after a short time, even for a reader who is in sympathy with it, and this along with Mr. Ellis's sometimes questionable leaps of reasoning serves to undermine the reader's confidence. The book is well- researched and not without merit but seems to come a little short in the authority department."
351041,1,I don't love this blazer!!!!,You have sent me a model different from for the one that I asked!!!!I live in Chile ..... there is no way of returning it .......
351210,1,Low quality,It prints a vertical stripe down the right edge of every page. It is supposed to print up to 3000 pages but ran out of ink after printing less than 500. Very low quality product.
351247,1,Can you feel this? Because I can't.,"I like Palahniuk. I just think he's playing himself out. Up until this point, ""Choke"" was the only book I hated. I wouldn't say I hate ""Diary,"" but I sure as hell didn't like it. The one good thing about it is that at least it is a little different. But he does rewrite his own dialogue and reuse little repetitive techniques that have been around since his first book. When I first read his books, they were new and great, original and raw. Now...yeah, he's overplayed in his own way. I can't feel this. Not even if you put a needle through my arm. I recoomend his earlier works (""Fight Club,"" ""Survivor,"" ""Invisible Monsters"") and of his most recent works, ""Lullaby."""
351250,1,I couldn't even finish this book!,"This book has been around for so long I finally decided to pick it up after such great reviews and recommendations from others. I found this book to be of NO help whatsoever. The stories in the book in my opinion have nothing to do with anything and the repetitive speaking is what actually made me not even want to continue reading. The entire book is just saying the same thing over and over and over again but in a different way, actually sometimes the same exact way. Page 1 of a book should not say the same thing as page 200. I just was really tired of all the same things being said I had to stop reading."
351308,1,"Stupid book, don't waste your money","I don't know what I was expecting, but it was more than this book delivered. It was boring, stupid and pretty mindless. I can't imagine anyone being as dumb as the heroine of this book. could not finish it."
351336,1,Not appropriate for MBA level,Somehow this book ended up being a required text in my full-time MBA program. We complained so much that this was a 1st year 'college level' book and not appropriate at our level that my school discontinued it the following year. Now I can't resell my 'unused' version on campus. What a waste.
351373,1,"Eat my dust, then vomit it up","The only thing holding up this movie is the legs of the costar Christopher Norris(yes, she's a girl),which is why I gave it 1 star. A half star for each leg. I recommend it to anyone in search of a (...) car chase film that uses fast motion technology and third grade dialogue. Sorry, this one's not worth it at half the price. I shudder at the thought of watching the other Ron Howard movie (GTA)I bought when fulfilling my dream of owning every car chase movie ever produced. Don't do it, stay away."
351465,1,My son doesn't like this,I ordered this for my 2 and 1/2 year old son based on all the good reviews. He already colors well and knows his alphabet so I thought he would really like it. But it just annoys him. He hates being quizzed while coloring and for the games you just sit and point with a crayon and he grows bored quickly. We'll put it away and try again in a few months but for now he has more fun just coloring on regular paper without all the electronic distractions.
351521,1,Quality control issues,"Had it for a year and while it worked the cat loved it. It is located in a sheltered area on our front porch. Does not directly see the elements other than cold. After one year it is dead. After re-reading some of the other reviews I remember my trepidation over buying this product but gave it a try anyway. Looks like no quality control and the lack of response to the buzzing noise comments made from other users has me concerned about replacing with product from this manufacturer. I will look around before I do anything, and I guess the cat gets some nice over-nighters in the garage instead of the porch. Anyway, be careful with this item. Looks to me like a company that doesn't really care too much about their products."
351538,1,Multi-player Bunk,"No Gamepads work. The instruction book says there is a controller setup under Options but it does not exist. When you look at Player 2 under Options the Gamepad appears programmed for play and appears functional , but then fails to operate when you start the game. The only multi-player action possible is with 2 people on the Keyboard. What a joke! There are no patches anywhere and apparently no fix in the works. The maker does not publicly acknowledge any problem. I have 20+ years as a computer builder, user, and gamer and this is pure bunk (spelled crap)."
351541,1,Very disappointing,"I bought this for my 20-month old as she loves stickers and likes to manipulate things. I thought she would enjoy placing the stickers in different places on the pages and had originally tried to find Colorforms but apparently those aren't made anymore.The stickers were hard for me to pull off their original sheet, even using my long fingernails. They were impossible for my toddler to pull off. They were only slightly easier to pull off of the other pages. The price is very low on these so at least I'm not out a lot of money, but I was very disappointed."
351542,1,are you kidding me?,"Seriously. An ""OWNER'S"" manual? OWNER. Right. Here in America, men do not OWN their sex partners, wives, girlfriends, or lovers. That right there should tell you how much respect this author has for women. Seriously, do not give this guy even one of your hard-earned dimes."
351555,1,Not the place to start with Mr. Rhythm,"Andre Williams is a legendary figure in the world of greasy, sleazy Rn'B. Andre's recordings for Fortune Records in the 50's and his soul/funk sides in the 60's are too good to be believed. In the 90's Andre came back in a huge way with two mind-blowing albums of psycho-garage-soul on In The Red Records - in between these albums he recorded this one. ""Red Dirt"" is Andre doing his country and western thing - obviously this type of music is one of his passions. Unfortunately, Andre simply isn't a country artist and this recording never reaches the heights (or depths) of his other records. His voice is still great and his lyrics are still funny, but the musical background just doesn't suit him. For Andre Williams completists this is an OK record, but this is definitely NOT the one to start with if you have never experienced his genius."
351597,1,NOT A GOOD SELLER,SELLER DID NOT SEND THE ITEM WHEN I ORDERED IT. I HAD IT EXPEDITED 2-3 DAYS AND NOTHING WAS SENT TO ME. THE SELLER ALSO DID NOT RESPOND BACK WHEN I TRIED CALLING AND WRITING AN EMAIL. I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED.
351606,1,Junk,"If you're into innovative rap and want something else besides a few guys sitting in their bedroom with a drum machine, then don't buy this album. If you're like me and are into tight beats and wicked hooks like the kind Warren G and Dr. Dre serve up, check out Gospel Gangstaz instead. These guys are wannabees with sloppy ryhmes. OGG's is tight."
351626,1,Used? or knock-off? sold as New,"One set of baby dishes was marked in such a way as to appear used. Not Royal Doulton quality. A knock-off, maybe?"
351627,1,You get what you paid for,"The price is right for this ""mahogany""-looking piece of furniture. Quality wooden stands cost more, of course. I've got what I paid for. I bought this music stand to fit into the interior. It is not mahogany of course, and it fell apart during the assembly (I had to send it back to the seller for repair. They glued it together). Now I am just using it to keep spare music sheets. It stays in the corner of the room, and I am afraid to move it because it will fall apart again."
351653,1,Faulty Construction,"Purchased this unit and returning it after just 2 uses.1st use it worked fine. 2nd use, the steam started coming out of the hole where the hose enters the machine's body. Very dangerous!"
351828,1,Garbage,These batteries are absolute garbage. Both the AA and AAA discharge within a day or two. Tried two different Energizer branded chargers as well as a sanyo charger and still the same results. Won't take more than a handfull of photos on my point and shoot. They even run dry in my remote control after a week or so. This product is a complete waste of money.
351845,1,Hype,"If you are looking for real answers, don't buy this book. It's a feel good read but provides nothing more than a bunch of hot wind. Morever, the style is bland, sleepy, like a ghostwriter did the best he could from notes he took from dictation."
351850,1,complete malarky,"This book kept on cropping up on recommendation lists so I finally caved in and bought it.This is nothing more than a monumental collection of pseudo-scientific nonsense! I work in the academic world and see people try to pull this stunt from time to time...only to be shut down by an informed audience. I guess this trick works for Sonnon because of the buffer of the internet and his cadre of yes-men.To be fair, the last few pages are devoted to an attempt to describe tricky breakdance/gymnastic moves.I still get bombarded with Scott Sonnon/RMAX recommendations, but refuse to pay for another of these overpriced disappointments."
351882,1,Not the same quality anymore,"Spigot leaks if not seated exactly right. Lid is pretty lightweight, much cheaper plastic than years ago. Does the job, but grrrr."
351919,1,Bird feeder,This was nothing like I expected.Next time I will take out a tape measure so that I know how big or small this was
351935,1,Incompleted,This dictionary does not include words over 9 letters long and does not include common words that might be considered vulgar.This is an incomplete resource and it is not suitable for serious Scrabble players.
351977,1,Worst Purchase I Ever Made,I have owned this Printer/Copier/Fax/Scanner for 19 months. The problems started right out of the box and have continued almost daily. Tech support was less than useless - it was down right frustrating. The problems include 1) Paper feeder jams; 2) ADF jams (usually on the last few pages of a multi-page fax/scan job. This requires teh entire task to be restarted); 3) Waste Toner error; 4) any other error that can occur will- anything that can go wrong will go wrong. I would NEVER reccomend this unit to anyone as a purchase unless you are a glutton for punisment.
352116,1,Waste of time and money,"This book is almost unuseable. Most of its pages seem to be fragments from various GTK+/Gnome header files with only rudimentary explanations. It does not answer most GTK+/Gnome beginners questions, even if they are experienced programmers.For example I wanted to call a file selection dialog. The index has one reference to GtkFileSelection, which consists of a screen shot and another reference to the corresponding #include file for this widget. That's it. The #include file contains several functions, none of them are explained or even mentioned in the book (at least I could not find them in the index).I'm afraid I have to buy another book to get my job done."
352145,1,Order the bigger one,Cats were fascinated initially but it was too easy to reach their toys. Order the bigger one - cats need a challenge.
352160,1,Decent Thriller,"This is essentially two books; an espionage story set largely in Portugal during WWII and a police procedural in contemporary Portugal. The WWII story sets the stage for the contemporary mystery. Wilson is a competent writer and each story is handled fairly well. These two threads are brought together at the end in a needlessly complicated conclusion. There is a good deal of gratuitous, both in the conventional sense and in the sense that it doesn't really advance the plot, violence and sex. Books with repeated scenes of rape are usually not very appealing."
352265,1,Shame On You Michael Gross,"If Michael Gross dedicated just a fraction of the time he spent researching and writing this book, perhaps he would have a fraction of what Mr. Lauren has: a highly successful and valuable global company, a stimulating and fulfilling workplace for thousands of people, a high quality assortment of products, and world class brand. Mr. Gross is a bottom feeder, a veritable catfish in the literary world. He creates nothing. He makes nothing. He does nothing. Other than criticize and critique what others do. He doesn't strike me as the type of person to be ashamed of himself, but I am ashamed for him."
352279,1,Nice photos; generic information,"The pictures are gorgeous - makes a great coffee table book. However, the info is pretty generic and a bit fluffy considering Barton's years of experience as a Swissy breeder. Looks like the editor was given too much free range on this one, and cut out everything that might have been interesting or useful."
352365,1,Sophomoric,"Here's a book pretending to be a history while written like a young boy's adventure. The only ""research"" seems to come from the prejudiced memoirs of ""solders"" bemoaning the loss of their stores of ""liqueurs and cigars"" while they occupied a simple people who thrashed them until they left."
352452,1,Not thrilled,"I felt that as much as Joan said she disliked whining, she whined. If I had lost someone hoping to find some uplifting revelation, this isn't the book. No magic here."
352467,1,Spend a little more on something else,"Blanket is not comfy, very thin and stiff. Ordered a King for a Queen sized bed and it just barely fits."
352492,1,Shorelines: Cassical Guitar by Dan Gibson,"Nature sounds and music are difficult arrangements to mix. Although I enjoyed the classical guitar, I thought the sounds of are what are said to be surf and water were overbearing and somewhat annoying."
352522,1,"Old product, beware!","I bought this thinking I was getting a current product. Wrong. The software for reading CDs that it comes with won't read from my CD-R. It says it doesn't support Mac OS X (only 8.6 or 9.1). The web sites it takes you to have copyright dates of 2001. ... I think I'm going to have to return this, which is too bad, because it seems like a good jogging companion (you wouldn't want this otherwise, no radio, hard to read and operate except for the most basic functions without squinting at the thing)."
352542,1,I don't have to watch this movie to know it's about sexual perversion,"I have heard about the Jerky Boys since 1992. Their name was emblazed in the graffiti at work. I knew it was only a matter of time before a movie was going to be released about them. There's a soundtrack to this movie as I heard one song from this movie as it was done by Collective Soul; while I forget the title to the song it did rock I seem to remember. As for the movie I've been there done that, so I will leave it to those who haven't because it's just too dumb for me."
352612,1,UMMM...skip this garbage!!!,"This book is not what you would expect from Luke, hardly no freaky tales or wild stories, skip this garbage."
352614,1,"Good for a while, but not forever...","I've had my setup for well over a year now. Never had any problems with it until I switched to using the Coaxial Digital Audio input. Now it will play for a little while, get crackly and then kill the sound for a while. After a pause, it eventually comes back. There's a reason this is at the price point that it is."
352623,1,Definately NOT everlasting.,"I invested in this toy because of the good things I had heard. Specifically, I was hopeful because of the positive reviews from dog owners whose dogs destroy their toys quite easily. My dog is one of those destroyers. The fun ball didn't even last a half hour with her. The weak spot is the treat opening. She got to it, and tore pieces off one by one."
352628,1,bad apple,"I had problems with my new ipod, went to the retail store. After waiting a ridiculous amount of time at the arrogantly titled ""genius"" bar I was told it would take a week to ""diagnose"" the problem and they weren't sure they could fix it. Very poor service. Another problem from Apple"
352702,1,Thievery of this article,"By what right is this article offered for sale here?The author has not been paid for the article,nor has her permission been sought.What is going on here?Who is behind this dishonest activity?"
352706,1,An Ok Read.....,"I have read all of Bevarly's books and have come to find that the heros are cast in pretty much of the same mold (within the non series books). The heros are divorced, cynical and wary of the female species. So if you have read her last 2 books in the non series grouping, then you don't need to bother with this one."
352719,1,Why is this woman on CD?,"The selections are all the same, production is weak. Why does this women get to make an album? Her voice is very ordinary, her talent minimal. I imagine even her fans will be disappointed. I always wonder why she isn't embarrassed to be in front of people."
352805,1,Too OLD!!,Shame on me for not checking the copywright on this book before I bought it...it is a little old to be using for my first trip to Cabo! Will look closer next time!
352813,1,not for use with water,"This connector sprayed water from the center immediately, so it is not useful for joining hoses. It might have some value as a tiny paper weight."
352833,1,MEDIOCRE METAL,"Even the fact that FOUCHER is female and therefore without any real competition in this field cannot save this effort. I added it to my extensive collection of guitar orientated CD's because of the gender aspect, but this is such a poor effort that even the novelty value can't rescue this CD. The playing is C grade at best and lacks any memorable solos, melodies or grooves. To compare this to GARY HOEY offends me as a HOEY fan. There is a total lack of original chops or ideas and the playing is juvenile at best. If you like this kind of METAL CD, check out VINNIE MOORE / GARY HOEY / ANDY TIMMONS / ANDY GEROME or PHIL KEAGGY's cd 220. There are many more and this one would rate about 139 amongst the 140 or so that I have bought over the last 2 years."
352840,1,"Watch the trailer, skip the film.",Excellent trailer. Horrible film. I suspect this film died in the editing room.
352925,1,Nausea,"I agree with the person who wrote 1 Star Too Many. I only read the excerpt, but this book is based upon automatic writing--an occult practice. How does the author (or for that matter the person who reads the book) know whether or not it is God who communicated with the author? I believe that the bible is the inspired word of God. The bible states in both the Old and New Testament that occult practices are an abomination to God. Is God now contradicting Himself? Conversations with God appeals to people who basically want to persist in their resistance to God's authority."
352991,1,Didnt last long,I know vibrators only last so long buT this onE only lasted one use. I tried changing the batteries and everything it wouldn't work. I'm very disappointed. My fist vibrator I ever used was the classic bullet (by back to basics) and it lasted several uses! I decided to buy that one again and would recommend it to others looking for a better vibrator!
353050,1,"If you love symbolic logic, you'll love this book","I bought this book hoping to get ammunition to use in arguments with theists. I found the book to be useless for that purpose: the arguments are too abstruse for general use. If you are a professional philosopher well versed in symbolic logic, this will be just the book for you. For lay people, though, it is tough sledding and, in the end, not very interesting."
353073,1,Great theme - terrible book,"I know of the premis of the novel from Hancock's 'Fingerprints of the Gods'and thought the book sounded brilliant. I can't describe the disappointment on reading it. Waffle, over-scientific, no character development, tedious.........zzzzzzzzzz. Only read if you have lost the will to live. It may help you in that final decision"
353121,1,now 1/2 the book for the price of one!?!?!,I can not believe that they are taking the books and splitting them into 2. Just to make more money. The single book was about 7.99 and now the split book is 5.99 each so they are now 4 more dollars. what a rip for a very good series of books.
353125,1,Didnt notice a thing,I tried this product for stress and general calmness and honestly I didn't notice anything at all. I varied the dosages but it didn't seem to do anything. I am going to try some 5htp next.
353172,1,dvd missing from case,"I recieved my order and notice the plastic wrapping had been torn, thinking it must have happened during packing I just put it aside till I had time to watch the movie, about a week later. I removed the remainer of the plastic to open the case and in doing so i discovered the dvd wasn't in the case. It appears that someone creased the plastic to remove my dvd. More quality checks need to be done before shipping. I have sent two emails requesting a replacement but have yet heard from amazon. The dvd in question is Lakeview Terrace."
353316,1,Too old,I was annoyed with myself when I received this book - it was published in 1998! We haven't gone to New York yet but I suspect there is a lot more to do these days. Silly me.
353351,1,Not a genuine Niles product,"AV-Express listed this as a Niles audio product. Not true. It is a Chinese knock-off, and it sells for much less on AV-Express' site. I sent Niles photos of the product, and they replied: From the photograph it does not appear to be our product; the packaging is different from ours, the part number WPM1K-2.0 and UPC code are not ones we use. Niles further replied: They are not an Authorized Dealer and we have never used those numbers. We have since contacted Amazon to have it looked into. If you want a knock-off, the product doesn't look bad, but it is falsely marketed as a Niles audio product. I contacted AV-Express through Amazon several times but received no reply. Thanks to Amazon's A-Z guarantee, I was able to get a refund, but the product is still listed on Amazon and advertised as a Niles product (this time by a vendor with a different name). I recommend following Niles' advice and purchasing the product from an authorized dealer listed on their website."
353446,1,Dull cutter,This was a waste of money. The triming tool is too dull...after cutting one shade it was rendered useless.
353471,1,Getting Suckered,"Yeah the game looks all nice and neat now in the concept stage,but don't forget in last sims you have to add additional versions over and over again nor to have all the stuff and don't for get the downloads on the web page. In the end it's overly priced to buy as soon as it comes out. Don't you think EA Games is going to make additions after the fact again?? Consider waiting until the first 3 or 4 expansions for sims2 come out before buying it and getting suckered again with lower prices later."
353486,1,Watch out if you own this,"This thing got burnt the other day.Cooked!! I got lucky it just left the hole in my carpet, but it could burnt the whole house. By the way, it was working fine for last couple winters. I will never buy the warm mist humidifier again.... period!!"
353489,1,TurboTax Installation Problem,"Be advised that if you do not have a designated ""C"" drive or partition on your hard drive, TurboTax 2003 will not install on your computer. The pop-up TurboTax Deluxe setup box appears near the end of installation and states ""Error creating necessary version files."" Then setup suspends. When TurboTax support was queried via their chat facility, they confirmed the problem and had no solution at this time. Subsequent searches in their FAQ area also stated that TurboTax will not install for the same reason as above and instructs the viewer to return Turbo Tax to Intuit for a refund. Nothing like driving your customers to the competition! This also makes Intuit's tag-on programs ""Its Deductible"" and ""Quicken"" useless but there's no mention of what to do with these although, the way they handled this problem, it's pretty obvious what their reply would be.You might want to check this out further if you have a high capacity storage drives that do not contain a ""C"" partition."
353546,1,handle should be higher so little hand can play with it,"My son had trouble getting the cow and the horse in and out of the stall and then the whole stall isn't secured onto the truck so,when he pushes it the pieces slide around. I think it is a good concept, but the handle should be higher so that little hands can reach in and put the pieces on and off the truck without help from mommy or daddy. We use it without the pieces and my son just takes that truck and runs all over the place, like I said it is a good concept to put a handle on atruck. It makes it easier for children 1 or 2 and is more fun for them. We just keep the pieces in his toy box and off of the truck and he can play with them with his ""little people barn set""."
353589,1,This book was an embarassment to Catholics.,"This book is inappropriate for anyone in a serious search to bring Catholicism into their wedding celebration. It also is offensive to modern Catholics, who would not consider asking for a dispensation of marriage from the Bishop if the other party is Christian, but not Catholic.Offering loosely translated biblical text, such as ""gee you look nice"", and advice on ""frequently asked questions"" such as ""Is it a good idea to chew gum during the wedding?,"" I was embarrased for all Catholics reading this text. Buy it only for humorous value."
353704,1,REV drive not compatible with Vista Disaster Recovery,"I attempted to store a backup from Vista Complete PC Backup & Restore on the REV drive and received the error message ""Media is not UDF"". Storing a Disaster Recovery Image is the reason I purchased the drive. The drive is excellent for straight copying of files, but is not good for use with third party software. I talked to a Tech. support Rep., and he gave me the usual run around, saying if files can be copied to it, the drive is fine. They said I should call Microsoft."
353709,1,DO NOT BUY !,"... Bent or crooked blades (depending on the knife you're looking at), broken or ground off points and stamped sheet type stainless steel for the handles. These things would be more valuable if melted down and sold for scrap.$$$ is cheap for a good set of steak knives which these are not. Given a choice, I'd go with Ginsu."
353733,1,Malfunctions right out of the box,"I opened the box, read the instructions, turned it on, and it wouldn't work. The drain valve was faulty and doesn't seal, so you can never get any pressure in the tank."
353767,1,Proud of loud,"2 1/2If short, manic indie pop is your thing, the constantly blaring Reatard may fit your bill, though I rarely see past a folksier Andrew WK in the songwriting department."
353817,1,Not what I thought!,I bought it at Bed Bath and Beyond because of their return policy. After 3 uses I noticed a dusting of black powder that fell into my batter (only noticeable because my batter was cream color. I took my machine back and was told that another customer returned theirs as well for the same reason. Pay attention to your batter.
353854,1,Waiting for shipment,I ordered my vacuum on March 30th. I'm still waiting for it to be shipped. Today is April 20th. The ad says usually ships in 24 hours. I wish I would get it so I could write a well informed review.
353903,1,Critical Mistake,"I usually am very loyal to authors I've come to prize and buy their hardcover editions to show my support. I had a collection of Steve Martini's work right up until I bought Critical Mass.I know everyone is entitled to their opinions, but I also am entitled to not having to pay for someone mocking mine. Specifically by ridiculing a President and his wife whom I enthusiastically support.Dale Brown did the same thing some time in the past and I quit reading the offending book mid-page and tossed all of his work. Tom Clancy did a similar thing when saying that he felt persecuted for smoking (after all, it wasn't like he had AIDS!). Out that pile of paper went.I hope Martini feels better now that he's catharsis'ized his political opinions, and that the good feelings are enough to offset the minimal amount of discomfort my ceasing to further contribute to his income will cause.Plus, look at the book shelf space I freed up!"
353938,1,DRAGGIN ITS TALES,"The title is certainly appropos, that's for sure! In the tradition of such films as TALES THAT WITNESS MADNESS, TALES FROM THE DARKSIDE, etc. THE THEATRE BIZARRE is a collection of six stories that are truly strange.Unfortunately, I wasn't impressed by any of the tales. THE MOTHER OF TOADS is sloppily filmed and incoherent. I LOVE YOU has a twist ending, but is slow and monotonous in getting there. WET DREAMS is almost effective but gets muddled by the end. THE ACCIDENT is a misfit---it's not a horror tale and makes little sense. VISION STAINS is just dull and SWEETS is just repulsive.All in all, a waste of celluloid and time."
353998,1,Huge waste of money,"This ring looks beautiful in the picture but when you see it in reality, the cubic zirconia so small and the ring looks so tiny. Also, the cubic zirconia is dull. The ring I received looks like it was worn. Very disgusted with my purchase. Won't buy from this seller again. I do not like false imaging. The ring looks cheap and should be sold for much less. A real rip-off!"
354016,1,DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT!,"My carpenter recently purchased this item and installed it for me on my side garage door. Product worked okay for the first few weeks, but then started making sporadic ""beeping"" noises. When this happened during the daytime, I wasn't too concerned. But when the loud beeps began coming several times during the night, that was it! I pried the unit off the door! Don't know if the problem was with the three button batteries or the unit itself. But I definitely won't buy this product again..."
354038,1,Not the full version,"My daughter (1 y.o.) loves the Chicka Chicka Boom Boom book. Unfortunately, she loves tearing at the pages even more. So we bought the board book version.Sadly, the story cuts off half way through. This is only Part I. And, really, the more amusing stuff (Black-eyed P, for example), are in the second half."
354143,1,Ripped OFF,"I could not give this NO STARS!! ARGH!! I got ripped off from every rebate because I bought it ahead of time and by the time I used it the 30 days from purchase expired and I had already used the program. I e mailed the company and got NO response. They have very poor customer service and I was a faithful customer for almost 10 years to their products. I will not up grade anything I have of theirs (Quicken)and eventually I will replace it with something their competitors. I don't take it kindly when someone does me wrong and I never, never forget!! I have used the Tax Cut for a couple of years and like it ever better. Don't fall for their rebate ...and lack of morals ... Boycott!! :)"
354242,1,Ok,Not quite as good as I thought it would be. Hopefully more people can get better use out of it than I could.
354260,1,To be and to have DVD,"Unfortunately the DVD I received was a region 1 DVD, and could not be played i Denmark, which I informed you about, and after som exchanges of mail you very kindly arranged a refund to my account of the purchase price and I have bought the same DVD from another source, although I probably could have bought a usable DVD from Amazon in the UK, but this information was never relayed to me. I only have to live with the cost of importing the DVD into Denmark, about the purchase value of the DVD, but every experience costs money, normally.So thank you for your service in this matter.Best regardsPeter Daugbjerg"
354263,1,Disappointed!,This product came in damaged it even looked like it had been used and reboxed. The handle was all torn up and it was low on hydraulic fluid. I will not ever buy from this company again.
354305,1,The Duke's Got to Know His Limitations,"An aging John Wayne looks uncomfortable emulating Clint Eastwood in this routine crime thriller. Released two months after ""Magnum Force"" blew away the box office, ""McQ"" (1974) has its virtues - notably director John Sturges' penchant for slam-bang action sequences and Wayne's strong chemistry with Colleen Dewhurst (who makes the most of her disappointingly small role). Still, the Duke fared better when he took his cop routine to London in ""Brannigan"" (1975)."
354397,1,Problems!,"I bought the three computer version of CA Internet Security Suite 2007, which, as it turned out was exactly three computers too much. I downloaded the Vista version. (Although the box says 2007, the program doesn't know about Vista.) I spent most of a day trying to get the program to let me access the Internet -- adjusting every variable in sight, rebooting, etc. -- and finally gave up. I then tried to uninstall it. Vista said it couldn't uninstall it! Although I've manually deleted most of the files now, there's still stuff in the registry. Enough said?"
354428,1,Not what I hoped for,"I found this video to be not really that helpful. It's hosted by this lady whos just walks around her garden and shows us different stuff but doesn't get into any great detail on how to actually do things. This is set in Texas and so she talks about only things that would grow there, I wish I had known that before I bought the video. I was hoping for more detail on the types of plants and how she sets up the gardens. Some detail is shown on how she collects water, but not much. She shows how she raises the rabbits and how her set up is not really ideal. I feel sorry for those rabbits, she shows how she kills them and skins them, it was absolutely disgusting, but I couldn't take my eyes off of it, like a traffic accident! I know now that I sure would not be raising any rabbits! Overall low production value, didn't cost her a thing to make this video, she could have at least put on a bra and some makeup for it."
354479,1,STAY AWAY - WILL RAISE YOUR BLOOD SUGAR - NOT GOOD FOR LOW CARB OR DIABETICS,"So I had been looking around for someone diabetic who could post their sugars after eating a Chocoperfection bar, since the company makes so many zero glycemic index claims. I'm not diabetic, so I figured my results wouldn't help anyone. Well, after not finding anyone who had done this experiment, I just figured I'd give it a shot. I'm not diabetic, and I'd imagine if you were, your results would be way higher.I took my blood sugar at the 00:00 mark, and the ate the bar. Then I took my blood sugar again once every 10 minutes for an hour.00:00 7500:10 7300:20 8200:30 8300:40 8300:50 9100:60 93For me, almost 20 points difference in an hour, is major. I won't be eating them. I could eat a bag of skittles for the same glycemic cost. I don't know if it is the glycemic index, or the insulin response, or the leptin response that causes this fluctuation, I just know I don't need it."
354500,1,Very Bad Buy,This is one of the worst books I've ever purchased. The ideas in this book could be fully explained in no more than two or three pages. I bought it relying on the CV's of the authors but it turned out to be a true dud. It rehashes the same ideas over and over and over and over. It's for the braindead.
354533,1,Not Bad,"This book is based on Jacqueline's (Joaquina)childhood. My only comment is that she distorted the facts and attacked someone (her older sister) whom is really a good person. She is not as dumb, mean or as ugly as she describes her. Joaquina should have taken into consideration that her sister was in the same boat as she was. Go get professional help, you need it."
354555,1,Another bland House of Mouse sequel,"My family and I enjoyed the first one immensely. That said, this one left us flat. While it had some of the same ideas and turns of phrase that made the first one so endearing (i.e. the ""Mrs. Clause"" and the Tooth Fairy character), the story itself was formulaic and uninspired. The result is the latest in a series of bland 'House of Mouse' sequels that attempts to cash in on the success of its predecessor. Heavy on glitz, but thin on substance. Without Tim Allen, this effort would have been another straight to video sequel, and in my opinion, it still should have been. Definitely recommend you rent it before buying."
354603,1,go for the more expensive forehead scanning thermometer!,"i could not get this thing to read the correct temperature on me, much less my baby . . . not too comforting when you're wondering if your baby has a fever or not. no matter what angle i had the thermometer at it always read 96.7, on me and my baby. go for the slightly more expensive forehead scanning thermometer (target doesn't carry it but babies r us does), it's super fast and much more accurate."
354663,1,Bull.crap. Worst movie I have seen.,"Crappy Acting. Crappy Effects. Crappy story line. Hardly any action, That looks like crap. And its just not worth your 2 hrs."
354753,1,Ink coming off.,"Used this a couple of times and it seemed to work fine, but after the second washing (top shelf in the dishwasher), I noticed black on my fingers when I went to put it away. Upon closer inspection it was clear that the ink was smudging off. Messy, not to mention that a measuring cup without any markings on it isn't much use."
354754,1,Waste of money and a general pain,"I bought this item because it was recommended on Alton Brown's show and looked like it would be good because you don't have to scrape out a measuring cup BUT you can't pull it back to add another ingredient after you have put in the first ingredient because the top doesn't stay on the inside cylinder. If it was screwed on instead of clamped on, it would be a better design. Even in using it for only one ingredient it falls apart, takes a lot of space for storage, and doesn't always get clean in the dishwasher."
354758,1,This 2-cup size has issues,"I have tried two different sizes of this item. This big 2-cup version did not work properly, so I sent it back and kept the smaller tablespoon size one, since it works much better. The main issue was that the plunger seal would not grip the sides of the sleeve, so it would wobble a lot, kept falling and losing the measurement that I set. Even with ingredients in it, the sleeve would fall down, big mess.. I decided to try one of the yellow plunger measuring cups next and I find that they grip and hold the measurement much better. I'm happy now."
354772,1,A disappointment,"I'm crazy about the Holmes films, from today's Cumberbatch Sherlock series and the adaptations featuring Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law all the way back to the early classics made by Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce. The Hound of the Baskervilles has long been a favorite (the Rathbone version and the Roxburgh/Grant version, which also features Ron Cook--perhaps the greatest Richard III ever filmed--in the understated role of Barrymore). This film however, was singularly boring and turgid, and I quickly gave it away."
354904,1,"Mary, Mary","Although the story line was good, there was way too much reminiscing by Mary's mother Margaret, and no preparation for it. In the shadow of Mary's murder, Margaret explores the memory of her relationship with her own father and Mary's father, who seems to be a figment of her imagination. I found myself going back a lot to figure out if this was just happening or if Margaret was remembering again. There's a twist at the end, but it doesn't take you on the edge of your seat, it just stumbles through."
354905,1,Embarassingly bad....,"""Love Song For a Raven"" had the potential to be fantastic, but the writing and the dialogue were so flowery and ridiculous that I couldnt help but cringe. I thought that the characters were woefully underdeveloped and the love between them blossomed so fast that it bordered on unbelievable. Raven was ok..but his whole ""Gratitude/Love"" thing grew tired..and Janna was just plain annoying...I would have given this only 1 star, but it IS an Elizabeth Lowell and this was OBVIOUSLY one of her earlier efforts. All in all I definitely would NOT recommend this."
354984,1,only lasted one year,"I bought this as a gift in Dec 08 and it already stopped working by Nov 09. User did everything right, according to instructions, but it just stopped performing. What a rip off!"
354986,1,Unhappy,This product did not work at all....and I gave it as a gift. so I am not very happy with it and don't really know what to do.
355073,1,My least favorite of the Little Red series,"My 3-year-old really loves all of the Little Red books. She would probably give this one four or five stars, but I'm bothered by the fact that Little Red ditches her friends on Christmas Eve without so much as a by-your-leave, and by Little Blue's grumpiness. It has some imagination, but the story could use a little more editing."
355098,1,the sound activation sucks!!!!,the sound activation is really really bad. the lights do not go to the beat at all. make sure you know where you are going to mount them at because mounting is difficult. the light patterns suck!!! the lights are bright though. thats the only good thing
355123,1,This is Gang Mom,"Just a warning This book has already been published under the name Gang Mom and it did not have very good reviews then so I wonder why they decided to re publish it ,and as a matter of fact, even using another title? I get the bad feeling they are trying to fool the customers, thinking they buy a new true crime book.So I decided to warn you. Not one of the better True crime books."
355131,1,Title is interesting,"This was the worst piece of acting. It was a total waste of money, not what I expected at all. If you haven't bought it don't."
355140,1,"expensive toy, not an epilator!","I had a 4 years old epilator of another brand and it was still perfect. Than I came to USA and I encountered with a plug problem so I decided to buy a new one instead of buying a voltage adaptor. I read all the reviews about all the epilators within this price range and I decided to buy this one.I am using this machine for more than 6 months now and I can easily say that the thing this machine does may be described by many things; but epilating is not one of them. you have to go over, over, over, over and over on the same area to get rid off hair (I don't know if i put enough 'over's!!!).Finally today I felt so frustrated in the shower after spending 30 minutes for underarms(it usually takes less than 5 minutes with my old epilator) and I used a razor.I can't imagine a worse epilator than this one.The only good thing about this machine; it does not give any pain, since it does not pull any hair!"
355158,1,"cheap, lowest quality","I realize this is a very inexpensive item so I didn't expect much, and I was still disappointed. I could barely open the umbrellas without them ripping, most of them gave me splinters and wouldn't stay open. I also purchased from oriental trading at the same time and theirs were much better quality."
355208,1,Not worth the money!,"My Husband bought me this for christmas and bought it based on the reviews. I used it once and I am very dissapointed with this footbath. Does not keep the water warm like it says, you fill the footbath with water to the fill line and the water barely covers your feet! When you turn it on, the water splashes all over the place! on the floor behind the footbath and up your legs! The rollers inside the footbath don't do anything! I would not recommend this to anyone!"
355213,1,Someone will pay!,"""Someone will pay!"" This a line from the book that the heroine's best friend says to her when she finds out she's dating a white man. Someone will pay alright and it will be you if you buy this book. I feel the title of the book says it all. The author writes from the stand point that only ""Once in a Blue Moon"" would a black woman find love with a white man. If this is a shared sentiment then you are sure to enjoy this book. If you live in a more realistic world then do not be the one to pay for it."
355216,1,Not that good,"I don't know why everyone raves about this one, Claiborne has few great fragrances.. plus they use cheap ingredients, so the few that they do have that are good.. don't last long.This basically smells like peaches. The weird part is it smells like somebody spilled this peach fragrance all over a circuit board, the board then fried and mixed with the peaches. I'm not even joking.. this smells like peaches and fried circuits. Not to mention it doesn't last very long at all.You want a good orange-ish peachy scent.. go with Nautica Sunset Voyage.. One of my personal favorites.-The Cologne Guru"
355221,1,Oops,"My mistake, I accidentally ordered the wrong CD. But if this was the ""Best of"", I'm glad I never heard the regular Tyrone stuff. Anybody want a CD that has never even been played in its entirety?"
355226,1,"Full of stats, weak on science","On such a sensitive topic, the science must be iron-clad. What is intelligence ? Are there alternative explanations to apparent discrepancies in IQ ? This book is not the place to find answers to these crucial questions."
355266,1,Cute but quality could improve,"I adored this set. But after washing the set a second time, the corner of the sheet was completely ripped apart. I am afraid to wash any of it again. I read the reviews for the matching toddler set and they all agreed to poor quality. I am going to check with the company to see what they will do about it."
355275,1,Not what I expected,"I didn't like the music, others may like it, but it was not my taste. It was too religious for me."
355328,1,The rise and fall of DMB...,"This is the third consecutive album by DM or DMB with a significant decrease in quality and originality. Since Crash, there has been increasing overproduction and leaning toward musical moderacy that has ended up watering down his original voice, lyrics and guitar virtuousity. I am amazed by the overwhelmingly positive reviews for this CD by so many - I simply don't understand - if you disagree listen to Crash then SOme Devil back to back and I think you will reconsider. I hope for a return to form as I counted DM/B as one of my top 10 favorites. My only hope is that DM is not the next Sting and that I will never see him launch a song via a Jaguar commerical. If this analog is repelling to you and doesn't seem on target then you have forgotten or are too young to remember that the Police at their peak were creative, original and immensely popular.Regardless, DM/B is/are captivating live so go if you ever get a chance.Guy Smiley reporting from The Street...."

355404,1,Box was all banged up,Pretty good scent but the handling of the product was horrible. The box was all dented and the top ripped. When i opened the box i found the cologne to be cracked but not leaking thankfully. Good scent but absolutely horrible shipping. Was not satisfied
355442,1,LMP tumors ARE cancer,"my comments are directed primarily to the physician above who stated ""many of these patients do not have 'cancer'"". as a woman with recurrent LMP, i must protest this statement. my gynecologic oncologist views and treats my disease as cancer -- my symptoms and disease progress are absolutely malignant and are treated as such. one of the problems in treating LMP is that it is slow growing, so current chemotherapy regimes may not be effective (chemo targets fast-growing cells). those of us diagnosed with LMP and/or micro-papillary disease are often at a loss on what to do when the cancer recurs and metastasizes. agreed, this particular resource is no more helpful than the free PDQ documents available on the 'net. but PLEASE, recognize that LMP is cancer, and women are dying from it every day!"
355445,1,Waste of money,"I wish I could give this book negative stars. That's how bad it was. It's two hundred some pages that could have easily been summed up in maybe a page or two. Basically it states very clearly that you should not nag, bribe, or threaten your children, but it offers absolutely no alternative solutions. It simply states that you should always stay positive it these difficult situtations. But it doesn't tell you what to do while being positive. Absolutely no help to me at all."
355453,1,Hot Stuff?,"The first time I heard Black And Blue it didnt catch me the way the other Rolling Stones albums did. I was really shocked how much their sound changed sounding reggae, disco, and funkish. But in all respects the jamming on the songs was extensive. Black And Blue was released in 1976, this was the first album of Mick Taylor's departure. The new axeman (guitarist) was Ron Wood. I think this album was good for two reasons the jams, and because their was the Rolling Stones. This is one of the worst!"

355647,1,Burwell once again misses,"Carter Burwell's soundtrack music to ""Rob Roy"" was an early sign that he was not just getting it right. The score is all wrong but so is the movie. This movie needed an uplifting score. Carter Burwell could not deliver it."

This is novelty crap, and a wasteof money. I suggest you buy American Made product...something that can be kept for long term, and repaired if necessary.I bought one of these clocks and it lasted for 3 weeks...andnote.... Only the adapter has a UL rating not the actualpower transformer / board."
355735,1,A complete waste of time and money. No value.,"First the author needs to learn how to write. Second to know the historical facts, if interested to establish any credibility. The whole book is nothing but stories at a 6 year old level."
355867,1,Chipmunks on Helium,"I hate to down any music because I am a fan of many diferent genres BUT...I put this disk in my 300 disk player and press play and experience something quite new. Have you ever heard the Chipmunks on helium? Well not exactly a relaxing experience. I had purchased this disk because I was on a search for the song ""Queen Bee"". I found it by Barbra Streisand but I thought someone else had done it before her. In my search I came across Middle of the road. I had never heard of them before (I am 30 years old) so I decided, because I could not find a soundclip anywhere, to order the disk and take a chance. Well needless to say I hope the ""random"" on my player skips this disk as much as possible. The music has a nice folksy feel but the vocals scare me. Just my opinion..."
355884,1,Disappointment,"If you're looking for the original version (by Band Aid) of ""Do They Know It's Christmas?"", don't get this CD. The version of the song on this CD is NOT by Band Aid."
355892,1,"Fun, I guess","Walter Farely's Flame is a loved character for many people, but the model of the Island Stallion is not as good as it could be, in my opinion. The model makes him look a bit fat. He is more of somthing to look at, rather then play with. If you have a Black Stallion/ Island Stallion loving child, the toy is fine, but the parent of a regular horse crazy kid might consider somthing that one can actually put a bridle on."
355898,1,Handle cracked after one use,"To be fair, the pitcher was beautiful. The glass was heavy and thick; no bubbles in mine. I put ice water in it and when I picked up the pitcher to pour, the bottom part of the handle cracked. It was just too heavy with fluid in it I guess. I would recommend only filling the pitcher part way and hold from sides and bottom to pour from it. Do not lift by the handle."
355917,1,What a disappointment,"The book should have been titled ""Satisfactory Terracing With Cement Blocks From Home Depot."" Most of the information is available where the materials are purchased. The photographs are quite similar to one another. I feel duped."

After setting it up, i was very pleased with the way the canopy looked but then suddenly the canopy flipped over and thus breakign some of the metal pieces!! It was not windy at all and anchors, along with weights were used as well. I am very disapppointed with this product. We took pictures if anyone wants to see the mangled mess. It was a good thing that there wasnt a vendor set up next to us otherwise someone, including us could have been seriously hurt! I would give it 0 stars if i could."

355977,1,I Hope You Have A LOT of Time And Money With No Imagination,"My relationship is very good right now but I wanted to bring a little more excitment into our sex life. So I ordered this book with an open mind. I had heard about it on a radio program and it seemed like a good bet. Little did I know that the author assumes you have money flowing and up to a couple of days to drop everything and focus only on completing the tasks. I also found that the cards lacked imagination. She just talked about basic concepts and then glittered them up by making sure you spend a lot of money. I can see how this book could be helpful to some people. If you're rich, have time to throw away, and have absolutely no imagination, this book is for you. Also, if you are a young couple, don't even bother with this book. It appeals way more to the older couples with no idea's what so ever. Laura Corn... please give up."
356030,1,Not ready for prime time,"I have to say ""good show!"" to JM Dragon for writing the book.However, I would suggest that the author find a decent editor and take some serious instruction on Novel writing. Plotting out such a huge involved story takes guts and percerverance, and for that the author should be commended.However, the experience of reading this book - which is at best a draft, is just painful. This book falls into every novice writing trap ever mentioned. The constant inner dialogue from practically every character, the over explanation or ""Tell"" where the author should be ""Showing"", makes it a very difficult story to read. I tried. More than once. I couldn't get through it.I can't reccomend it, and it really seems as if the positive reveiws here must be written by people who have never read a book before, or perhaps are pals of the author and wanted a balance, which is sweet... but misguided.Try again JM and don't give up."
356037,1,Bad Product and Customer Service,"When I purchased these handcuffs, I was not expecting stellar quality, however I was expecting some sort of quality past the first use. While the handcuffs arrived quickly, the packaging was tacky and very cheap. However, what was worse were the handcuffs. They were intended to be used as a gag gift and broke within the first day of use. They are worse than something you would purchase from a dollar store. It would be better if you saved your money and spent it on most anything else."
356117,1,More Stupid Winger Self-Reassurance,"I will admit it. I didn't read this book. I don't think anyone is going to read this book. Winger sheeple will use it to bash people who dare question FAUX News and Our Dear Leader over the head. I'll bet there are lots of footnotes, just like in Ann Coulter books. Everyone else will chuckle and put it in the vault next to all the Y2K Survival Manuals and ""Dow 30,000"" books."
356122,1,Worked only for one time,"I purchased this product. But it just worked only one time and after that, it got solidified and couldn't use it the second time. You can use this only for super clean surface since any dirt on the brush would crystallize the whole liquid and glue would be of no use anymore."
356137,1,Very Kindle-unfriendly,"This book is not Kindle-friendly. Any tables of information and many lists are too small to read and cannot be enlarged. I am glad I downloaded the sample first and didn't waste my money on the book.My one-star has nothing to do with the content, which may be adequate or even good. I couldn't tell from the sample, which is from the very beginning of the book and therefore the content is extremely elementary. The one-star is exclusively for the formatting of the book for Kindle."
356148,1,Digital Copy is Windows Only,"The production on these is great.My one complaint is that the Digital Copy for this Blu Ray is Windows format only. It will NOT work with iTunes on a Mac.The Digital Copy in Watchmen is dual format. But not this one. And there is no indication on the outside of the package nor on Amazon's listing here.If WB is going to pull a stunt like this, they need to indicate OS compatibility on the box."
356226,1,It is true! it is a piece of junk and amazon doesn't stand behind it,"I also agree it is a piece of junk. I gave it as a gift and had bought it in early December. Obviously, the person that I gave it to could not open it until the holidays. 30 days had already passed when she discovered that it was a piece of junk. When we tried to return it, neither Amazon nor Allergy be gone would stand behind the product."
356238,1,Very scattered-,"Some over the top bad songs. What is the bike song all about? Syd Barrett was cool, and wrote a weird song about a bike. Trey's song about a bike sucks. There are some great moments on this disc, and as always w/ Trey the musicians on the album are top-notch. The downside is, its almost painful waiting to get to them.I enjoyed most of his first album, and parts of Shine. This is easily his 3rd best solo album... Comparing it to Outside In by Mike Gordon, the album really has no flow. Be nice to see Phish get back together, but I'm afraid it would sound an awful lot like this, and that would be very depressing."
356476,1,not surdy,"not sturdy at all- was hoping to use as my utensils on a sailboat to save space, but no way could you cook or stir anything heavier than maybe 1 egg."
356532,1,Wretched,"I'm a huge fan of Tull and I own almost the entire catalog. There are many albums that still blow me away: Benefit, Minstrel in the Gallery, Stormwatch. Even Roots to Branches and J-Tull dot com were very decent releases.Aqualung Live, however, is abysmal, for one reason: Ian Anderson's voice is absolutely terrible on the album. Just unbelievably bad. He sounds like Popeye gasping for wind after a 100-yeard sprint. He's behind the beat, can't hit any high notes and sings in a nasally wheeze.I realize he's an older gentleman and I don't expect him to have the pipes of a 20-year-old. But the singing ruins the album (which does showcase some interesting reinterpretations of the music).Anyway, I could never recommend this to anyone. Try something in the catalog that's unheralded like Too Old to Rock 'n' Roll or Underwraps."
356559,1,This book is retarded,"A friend who had the same taste in reading as me recommended this book so I bought it. I was in a few spots funny, but more dumb then anything. Save your money."
356636,1,Please Be Warned about all KSB560 Blenders,"I have had this blender for a little of 1 year. While the blender does a good job of blending, the product doesn't last as stated. First, Kitchen Aid claims this jar won't scratch or crack. That is incorrect as my jar shows many scratches from limited (3x a week) use. Also, there is an defect with the jar and blade assembly. The nut that holds the blade located on the underside of the jar begins to come lose which allows everything inside the pitcher to begin to leak onto the motor housing unit. Despite tightening, the nut continues to come lose and continues to leak when the blender is used. Customer service has been very unhelpful in resolving the issue. I would STAY AWAY from this Kitchen Aid blender and spend your $100 on a better product."

356789,1,Buyer beware,I purchased this book through one of Amazon's distributors and paid $9.98. Unfortunatly the book arrived today and it is very thin and the price listed on the back of the book is only $3.95. This is a major scam!!!
356862,1,Dark Shadows,"Just wait for the 2012 release of Dark Shadows, the movie, with Johnny Depp. The grainy, skip-over poor excuse for a DVD will surely disappoint you. Low budget in the 70's is definately basement budget now."
356906,1,Terrible,"This book was the first I have tried to read by this author. I won't be trying to read another one. It was boring. None of the characters were likable, and if I wanted to read love scenes like the ones in this book, I'd get a copy of Penthouse."
356913,1,Shirley MacLaine's Best Movie?,This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. The characters are unlikeable except for Charity's two friends. The songs are far too long and I had to fast forward through most of them because they were so dull. I was especially disappointed with Big Spender because I love the song and expected a spectacular dance number from Bob Fosse and all they did was stand there draped over the bar. The only redeeming factor was that Sammy Davis Jr. was in it. He's awesome even though the song was fairly stupid. This was my first Shirley MacLaine film and on the back it said that Sweet Charity was her best movie. I have no desire to see her other movies then.

357095,1,Banned in the Czech Republic for good reason.,"This film was Banned in the Czech Republic during Communism. This fact has apparently led many to believe that the film was banned because it was offensive to Communists, but in my opinion that is not the case. The film was banned because it's crap.There is no plot to speak of. The film is basically a montage of random scenes roughly based around the two female protagonists. These scenes have no clear beginning or end and are not tied together with anything other than the artistic transitions between the scenes. These transitions are artistic and the only thing of merit in the film, but the disturbing speed of the transitions could make you sick if they were any faster.If you're looking for good Czech films Daisies is not what you're looking for, try Kolya, Dark Blue World, or the Fireman's Ball and stay away from this..."
357096,1,A Persistent Part Of American Political Mythos,"The mystery of deep throat has been a persistent part of American political mythos for thirty years. That is exactly how long Bob Woodward held onto the secret of who helped guide him towards the downfall of the Nixon administration. Personally I was never swept up in this mystery so the who's who just didn't matter. What came across as meaningful was the concept of journalistic standards, an idea that has ceased to exist in recent years. Bob Woodward set the standard for keeping the identity of a deep cover informant but no one has lived up to it since."
357124,1,You get what you pay for,"The very first time we used it some of the non-stick coating came off while making omlets. We even used cooking oil. We should have gotten one with a better coating, but there is no way to tell from their description. Handle needs to be tighten every so often too."
357158,1,I don't get it.,"I just can't believe the reviews for this item are real. This is worst product I have bought in a very long time. It is flimsy. The laser edge is about 1/16th off and at a slight diagonal. If you need to cut anywhere close to square this cutter simply is completely incapable of doing that. And the ""Heavy Duty"" is simply not true. I can almost guarantee that the people that wrote the description for this item NEVER saw it and definitely never cut a piece of paper with it."

357198,1,Huge Hole in Lloyd's Argument,"Elisabeth Lloyd and others love to cite the infrequency and unreliability of female orgasm as support for the hypothesis that female orgasm can have no evolutionary or biological importance, yet they don't seriously address the question of how constant their numbers are across cultures. Lloyd bases her arguments on studies from the U.K. and U.S. -- two of the most sexually-repressed cultures to have existed on this planet. This is a huge gap in the argument.Given what we know about how context-dependent female orgasm and female sexual response in general tend to be, to base species-wide conclusions on these two limited cultural groups is spurious. To simply state that only about 20% of women always or almost always have orgasm with coitus, as Lloyd does, without qualifying these data in terms of cultural context strikes this reader as being glaringly unscientific.Christopher Ryan, author of Sex at Dawn: The Prehistoric Origins of Modern Sexuality"
357245,1,The art of crushing triscuits to extract their essence,"From ANGEL WITH A BROKEN WANG by Emil Cioran: ""The North's aspiration toward a different sky has engendered German music--geometry of autumns, alcohol of concepts, metaphysical intoxication. 19th-century Italy--that bazaar of sounds--lacked the dimension of night, the art of crushing shadows to extract their essence. One must side with Brahms or with the sun.""Yeah, well--whatever, Emil. But whatever you do, don't expect much from music which is tailored to fit pre-written words. (Instead of the other way around.) Because the inevitable result is the submediocrity on display here. The only 2 things I like are CAN YOU LEND ME 20 QUID and the shoop-doo-wah coda of THE CONSTANT LOVER."
357319,1,Not for the working person,"Good when you are home and only need to cook something 3 or 4 hours, REGARDLESS of what your recipe says. I've wasted much $$ on meat and other ingredients that are burned to a crisp when I come home, even though it is supposed to switch to 'warm'. I'm investing $100 in the KitchenAid model."

357399,1,Tina Brown does it again,"After more than 20 years, I am not renewing my subscription to Newsweek. I am reminded of my subscription to the New Yorker in the early 1990s. I allowed that to lapse too, shortly after T. Brown took over. I would dare to say the New Yorker has yet to recover from the damage she wrought there, and now Newsweek is suffering the same."
357405,1,Ugly,"I used to enjoy this growing up, used to have informative, detailed news reporting and profiles. Now, now only has it significantly thinned out in content, but the quality has vastly suffered, the objective reporting is not there, and it seems like this publication wants to make news rather than report it. So perhaps if you like a skewed view, this may be a great mag for you, but unfortunately this is not much of an objective news magazine anymore."
357482,1,Steering Wheel Controller,"I still haven't gotten this thing to work. Whomever said this was easy to install told a lie. The instructions was very unclear and I had to go online to find my truck for the preparation configuration and still was confused.I would recommend you go to a professional installer and purchase it there and let them install it, b/c now I am going to have to have them do it for me and that means more money being spent!"

Inside the first Sealed-package was two screws. Inside the second Sealed-package was one screw. Each wallplate requires four screws.So, prepare to stop your almost 'complete' job, and drive to your local hardware store to buy the required screws to complete your job. Good luck on finding some 'white' screws. You may have to paint them.However, the 'Sealed-package' around the wallplate does protect it from scrathes to the wallplate."

PDO used to issue replacement discs to customers, but the company was bought out around 2009 and no longer honors that commitment. Pearl is also defunct. So check with the seller before you buy to make sure that the cds are silver, not bronze. Even then you might want to be careful as they can still go bad at any time.The musical content is exemplary and important. The transfers are generally good. Obviously these records should be reissued in a stable format immediately."

Regardless of what the seller write as the description take if from someone who made the mistake of buying them. The Sylvania Silver Star Ultra are brighter and whiter than these bulbs by far. I do not recommend the bulbs if you are trying to add HID Xenon look to your vehicle because these are just like you stock halogen bulbs only painted in blue and have a quoted silver top. Waste of time and money.

357695,1,Todd is a Great Man,"Do you know Todd Connor? I know him, and by God, you are no Todd Connor. This book is full of new-age zingers that deliver nothing but platitudes and Deltish euphenisms. Skip it and watch Braveheart a few times, that will make you a great man."
357702,1,too much fluff,"This book could have been half as long if Birch wasn't so interested in talking about herself. For the most part, this is book about why Birch practices yoga.Certainly there is a lot of quality content here, but it is sparse and has been covered more thoroughly by other authors (Schiffmann and Farhi for philosophy, Kraftsow for yoga therapy, and David Swenson for asanas).The program which Birch recommends is basically a watered-down ashtanga yoga workout in the primary series, with a few embellishments.When this book was initially released, it would have been a very valuable addition to any yogi's library. However, with the current selection of books and videos covering this subject, it has become obsolete and unneccessary."
357922,1,Horrible,"Seemed like a good idea at the time, but I can't remember the last time I was this disappointed in a product. Right out of the box it worked okay, but within a week it was useless. Just no suction whatsoever. Forget using the extension hose; you can put your hand right against the opening and barely feel it. Wish I'd never wasted the money on this-- it's going right out to the trash and I've only used it about 3 times."
358058,1,Good Idea -- Wish It Worked,"A mosquito/bug repellent that's safe, nontoxic, easy to use, has an inoffensive odor, and covers enough area for a table or a hammock: I was sold. Unfortunately, this device doesn't seem to repel anything! I tested the Bite Shield in my garden on a warm afternoon. As the mosquitoes buzzed around my face and swarmed my bare arms and legs, I held the device a few inches in front of me and turned it on. I could hear the fan (very quiet) and smell the geraniol (not unpleasant), but the mosquitoes were absolutely unfazed. They continued to swarm, including in the immediate vicinity of the Bite Shield, and bit me numerous times -- even on the hand that was holding the device! The packaging states that geraniol is 400% more effective than citronella. Well, 400% times zero still equals zero. Very disappointing. I have returned the item, and will use my refund to buy some Calamine lotion."
358062,1,Inadequently Represented,"This product did arrive in good condition, for that I will award two stars.This product represents little information of what it does. I believe it only works with DVI signals having TV-Out.With my component television, the display has inaccurate colors (white is purple), no resolution setting (from 620x480-1280x1024) on many different hZ frequences solved the problem.This product is not intended for a normal video card (as in my Macbook Pro- which works great by the way)"

358177,1,Not a fanstastic book!,"I don't find this book marvelous or see why it deserved 5 stars. In fact, the whole plot is being rushed through. No elaboration is needed more. Between Jessica and Damien, they only met for a few months then get married. BE REALISTIC DEBBIE! How can you get married with someone you met for a few months. In the second story, Debbie gave me a VERY bad impression of her character, Mary Jo, as this Mary Jo kept insisting that the whatever the guy is called, likes her. And do most girls do that? NO! Also, it gives me a bad impression of Jessica trying to act cute in front of guys. I recommend you not to buy it but rent it. I am very disappointed with Debbie's style of writting. The book also have lots of grammer and spelling errors."
358179,1,Skip this one,"This book has lots of scholarship & award information but it wasn't useful. It did not give enough information. I needed to consult other sources. Also, the book was faster to use than the CD. Skip this one, I didn't find it helpful at all."

We pulled our 4 costumes out of the bags and realized the batman cape/hood are sewn together backwards. So his cape is in front, not back. Grrr... and there's no direct line to call anyone about this issue and get a replacement before the big day. My 4 year old doesn't understand why Batman can't wear his cape."
358298,1,For real?,"Maybe I'm just not in good enough shape for this, but I found this extremely difficult to do, plus it was boring. It seemed to be more a showcase of how in-shape this lady is, and to show off her cleavage, than helpful in it being used to shape up."
358336,1,"Battery eater, feels 'smallish', song list","The song list is either your type of music or not. The game functions well with the song list. HOWEVER, this controller is the worst ever. It feels smaller than other controllers, even though it is close in size. BUT, it eats batteries! Even when not being used it drains them (no on/off switch, you have to pull them out). Sorry I listened to the other reviewers and got this."
358347,1,awful,"Hard to believe this film was celebrated as one of the best of the year.It is uninspired, with bad performances, a very superficial photography.It hurts what a Terrence Malick woud have done with this sujet! Danel Day Lewis is a great actor but how managed Anderson to turn him into the worst performance of his career."
358363,1,Trying to find a goal,"I would definitely recommend passing on this one. The book's 6 degrees are not well defined and leave you guessing what the point is. There is an over use of metaphors, that fail to make any impact, and are quirky at times. If you are looking for corporate secrets of success look somewhere else. It provides little more than a motivational pep talk."
358372,1,Do Not Buy!,I bought this adapter to use with my Creative Zen Microphoto. It does not charge the microphoto. The pc will fully charge the microphoto in a couple of hours but I left it plugged in to the Zip-Linq for 14 hours and it did nothing. The Zip Linq may work well with other mp3 players but not the Microphoto!!
358415,1,Design flaw,"It appears that there is a design flaw in the 880. My original remote will no longer charge. Logitech, to its credit, replaced it with a new 880. However, the replacement charges only intermittently. It appears that the problem is relatively well documented -- a Google search turns up many people with the same issue.I'm hoping that Logitech will send a different model as a replacement."
358465,1,NOT HAPPY,I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED THIS CD. NOT HAPPY.PERHAPS IF IT ARRIVED THEN MAYBE I COULD REVIEW IT THEN.MAYBE YOU COULD LET ME KNOW WHEN IT MAY ARRIVE.
358538,1,It's left handed!,"I bought this with the expectation that it would be as cool as all the other Pampered Chef products. The knife function works fine for thicker slices, but the thin slicer is on the wrong side of the blade! I can't use it without crossing my arms over each other, holding the knife awkwardly backwards, or pulling the slicer toward myself which is also very awkward. Nobody in my family is left handed so this was a complete waste of money."
358544,1,"Weak, lukewarm, flavorless coffee","I called Melitta to make sure I was operating the machine properly, and I was. The coffee looks dark, but is weak, flavorless, and not served hot enough. And I don't even like my coffee very hot! Very disappointed."
358552,1,Pull yourself up from your bootstraps already,"This information in this book is contrary to current evidence from The National Association for the Education of Young Children. A more realistic book is ""Anti Bias Curriculum- Tools for Empowering Young Children."" This is by Louise Serman-Sparks and the Anti-Bias Curriculum Task Force. It is a teachers guide but the information is also very pertinant for parents. Get the information from the experts. The description of ""I'm Chocolate, You're Vanilla "" sounded promising but the content was conservative, right wing propaganda. Young children are aware of differences (including ethnic differences) early on. Pre-predjudice can start as early as three years old. Magical thinking is not the full picture here as the author asserts. Children need real answers. To shield them from racism is not realistic. We need to empower them and support them in a healthy self identity. I found this book flaky at best."
358663,1,Please check product thoroughly....before allowing cats to use!!,"Received just days ago and later noticed sharp slivers of wood all around the wood box....they were coming out from the underside edges of the circles cut for your cats paws to enter to retieve the toys..I picked up the box and EVERY precut circlehad splinters of wood protruding the underside....I tried to pick them all off of every circular hole with my fingers ,and each circular hole had at least 2-3 slivers...but I still felt very uncomfortable letting my young cats play with this and possibly injuring themselves.This company really needs to look into this issue as it is a major hazard to your loved cats!!! PLEASE, if purchasing check under each hole to remove the loose wood slivers..."
358740,1,Whyyyy???!!!,"I didnt buy this, the office manger did...or soon to be fired office manager, she is annoying anyway. We have 10 different types of lubricants in the warehouse and even at home that would have sufficed. I have used 3 in 1 oil or Houdini lock and mechanism cleaner for years. I have used both depends which one I can find first. Used on the same shredder for 8 years and it all worked fine until missy know it all ordered this crap. I guess people that justify this price dont mind $4 gas either."
358755,1,"WHAT GREAT ""NEW"" IDEAS (in caps lock)","-Wow, this book is the best thing since the most powerfull men in the media started complaining about who controls the media.-The narcissism is addicting!-Mr. O'Reilly's grade is actually less than one star."
358776,1,The unanswered Riddle,The book lacks real research and does not answer the riddle of the compass. We are left with what we learned in grade school - that the Chinese probably invented the compass and that it helps a lot when sailing about the world.The author fails to make his case that the compass is the second greatest invention (after the wheel). And he glosses over the invention of a chronometer which really made navigation a science.The time spent reading this small book would be better spent doing something else.
358835,1,Not for the professional,"This book is for the hobbyist painter, though possibly not for an absolute beginner. It's mostly a picture book with step by step instructions on basic techniques, and materials. It covers how to set up a studio, and composition, and glosses over portraiture and figure painting.I got it mostly because I'm looking to increase my knowledge of glazing. There are a handful of techniques and that chapter takes up maybe one fifth of an already thin book. It talks very little about advanced technique, nor does it go in depth into techniques. For someone who has experience in painting and is looking for an in depth resource look elsewhere."
358852,1,Not a great as I hoped it would be,"Unfortunately this bra doesn't work well on every body type. I agree that it works best if you have the petite model body type. I'm average sized and size B chest and it made my chest look smaller, sad to say. I found it doesn't stick as well after a few uses, even after washing. I ended up using little pins to pin in on my outfits, afraid it would unstick from my body in public."
358931,1,Disappointed,I was disappointed in the product because it smelled like it was very old. Perfumes and colognes tend to take on a metal-like smell when they are old. It did not smell like the J'adore I love.
358979,1,What a joke...,"Don't waste your time if you are looking for a un-biased documentary. The producer / narrator of this movie takes scripture completely out of context in the most pathetic agenda driven of way. His dogma against and hatred of Christianity is as virulent and blind as any fundamentalist religious zealot is for Christianity. I waited forever to see an unbiased historical representation of the Christian religion and all I saw was a damaged man's diatribe full of lies and half truths and agenda driven drivel. The few scenes about ancient religions being the same as the Christ story were barely covered and nothing new from 100's of other books / movies in this milieu. His religion of hating religion is boooooring - and the attempt at the musical score making some emotional statement was hackneyed at best. The absolute JOKE of it all was his ""dramatic"" denial of the Holy Spirit in the chapel he attended as a boy... lame. If he has a therapist he should fire him immediately."
359003,1,missing cds into the cases,"I bought this series totally new cause it is a nice tv show but when i wrapped out the box set i opened the dvd cases and they are empty the cds are not inside although it looks toitally new, but maybe it is a fabric mistake because cases are empty"
359058,1,Why keep the flouride in?,"If you want flouride, eat toothpaste! Just kidding. Flouride is a poison, that's how it kills bacteria. There's better ways to protect your teeth, and your CHILDREN'S. Is there any filter that removes estrogen and medicines from the water supply?"
359059,1,unit will leak,Ive owned this product in silver for almost a year right after you replace the filter for the first or 2nd time it will start to leak and spray water. apparently this is a frequent problem. only wish i had googled it before i bought it. I'm now stuck with 2 unused and 1 1/2 used filter and no unit to use it in. company dose not honor any warranty!
359106,1,"Horrendous product, even worse service","Don't even bother with this item. Not only is the product even cheaper than you can imagine (uneven stitching, thin material, cheap, poorly shaped grommets), but the seller is atrocious. Hands down the rudest vendor i've ever come across on Amazon. The item arrived stained, and the seller went as far as accusing me of threats, simply to avoid taking responsibility. It isn't worth the money in the least, get this somewhere else, where the seller actually has some semblance of business acumen."
359124,1,Can't change fuse !!!,"Product worked for 1 Jump Start. In owners manual (if you want to call it that), it states main fuse may need to be replaced. It says to change fuse in front of product. Can't find where this is for the life of me. Can't find help. The product is from China. DON'T WAIST YOUR MONEY ."
359211,1,Not Good,"This was a late night purchase when I was lonely and on the road. Very sexy synaps and photo. I thought this would be something that might help me relieve myself watching, but instead it put me to sleep. There are absolutely no nude women in this movie at all."
359219,1,Sony 2500 mAh Batteries,Packaging is different than show on pictures and not lost longer than regular battery's. battery dies after taking 120 shots . Also gets very hot while charging
359362,1,broken,This arrived with one of the handles on the cover broken -- I was very disappointed as it would have fit in great with my kitchen decor. Very sad it had to be sent back.
359380,1,the unseen: a very mysterious book,"The Book, The Unseen was a great book. It was a very mysterious book and it dealt with figuring out a mystery to the world. I will not tell you every little detail about the the book but I will tell you some things about this book. Thus book is a great book it is also well written and it makes you feel as though you are there. It makes you feel as though you are going through the same thing that Xandra is going through. Xandra is the main character in this book. She loves animals and cares for every one that she finds that is injured. One animal in particular is a beautiful white swan that she finds in the woods that had been shot. The beautiful bird enede up leaving her a surprise which ended up being a key to the world. But to find out what that is you must read the book and find the key to the world with Xandra."
359383,1,Out of date,"If you were to assume that this book would have some incorrect information since it was published this long ago you would still be disspointed. Not only are the prices still in francs but half of the resturants listed have moved, changed their prices drastically or simply no longer exist. This book might of been valuable when it was printed but no longer is. Don't waste your money."
359391,1,Avoid at all costs!,The first calculator lasted about a year. Then display went out. The second one lasted about a week and the same display problem - digits not properly displayed - hit me during a final exam. Horrible quality! Avoid it if you can!
359393,1,flimsy case,"Just as 1 year warranty expired display went garbled. From day one, casing felt flimsy -while pressing keys, case would rattle like interior of a mid-80's mustang. Not sure if rattle would have been reason for warranty replacement, but i'm sure that cheap assembly was it's ultimate demise.Although calculator was feature rich and came with great manual, thats about all that can be said for it."
359412,1,Ruined in Shipping,DO NOT order these items from Amazon. I've twice ordered four spindles and the box comes with no padding and many ruined discs. The plastic covers have been shattered and the main rod to hold all the discs together is disconnected from the base. This terrible shipping method makes many discs unusable. Amazon should know better!
359439,1,Don't waste your money.,"The only reason I even decided to get this DVD was because I found it (...) at Frys, and I came online to check out the reviews and everyone said it was worth getting. Well, it's not. The fact that Godsmack and Playboy ended up on the same DVD, and that there is no nudity whatsoever is pathetic. If I'm not mistaken, this movie was taken directly from a TV special. It's a really disappointing DVD. You don't really get much from watching the band, nor do you get anything from watching the playmates. Often times they tease you by describing something really naughty that the playmates had done (which they had taped), and they totally ruin it by showing you absolutely NOTHING. The ONLY thing that would have made this DVD even worth buying would have been the entire collection of music videos. Instead, they give you two (Voodoo and Straight Out of Line). This is really just 45 minutes of pure crap. Don't waste your money."
359491,1,supriseeee !!!!,I haven't had this bracelet for less then a month and I haven't even worn it its been in the lil bag ot came in and I went to put it on yesterday and it was gold ! Lol when I first got it it was silver and over the month it changed lol very odd . Other then that's its a very nice style but its for sure fake and not sterling silver as the seller stated . Its nice for a night out as just to accessorize :-/ not what I wanted it for .
359501,1,Don't waste your money.,"Not much to say about this film. The scenes are over the top, and quite unbelievable...yes...I realize it is a movie, but jeez! This is nothing but junk.Don't waste your money."
359514,1,Horribly anti-christian piece,"Wizardry and witchcraft. Weird. Not at all true to what this story is truly about. The book of Kells was a book of the Gospels in the Bible. This is not true at all to the story. The animation was cool, but we shut this off after about 50 minutes (much more than half way)."
359645,1,Worked good until the Xbox Slim came along!,"This was Perfect before the slim came along, do not buy it now! Its considered outdated technology. Do not buy unless everyone you know has an older model xbox"
359669,1,Disappointed,"I was wanting to learn fingerstyle guitar picking of gospel songs, but I cannot read music. I was interested in learning Farther Along and I saw the DVD included this song. My disappointment is that a small instructional booklet came with the DVD but I found it hard to understand. Also, there were only 6 songs and the chords were not listed on the sheet music. As stated previously, I cannot read music. The DVD does not give very detailed instructions...very limited and most of the DVD concerns how Mr. Baker got into this style of music, which is not what I was interested in at all. In addition, there are no words of the song to go along with sheet notes if you could get someone to help interpret. SO DISAPPOINTED!!!"
359717,1,Keyboard Drawer,"After a few months of light use, the screws fell out, jamming the sliding track. Had to completely disassemble and reassemble product. Would recommend using Locktite when putting this together. This unit is a little flimsy, bends easily when using the mouse, causing a flex that probably caused the screws to loosen."
359729,1,tanked,I looked forward to this book soooo much!! Then I read it. Ah..... I paid $15.00 for this? Totally not worth the price. I usually love anything by Lora Leigh and expected allot better than this uninspired piece of #%@&*&*. It just goes to show even the most talented artists can occasionally write a sucker.
359736,1,Would not recommend,If you are looking for any information on Dian Fossey's work with her beloved mountain gorillas please give this book a pass. I did not learn a thing about the gorillas or Dian's work until I picked up Woman in the Mists by Farley Mowat. The Dark Romance of Dian Fossey is nothing more than salacious gossip most of which is uncited! Truly awful!
359788,1,Not that good,I bought this because they say it would work for attracting and killing masquitos and after months of use it hasn't killed any. It just attracts every other kind of bug.
359845,1,Boring,"I am giving this 2 stars because I actually have only watched part of the movie. I can't get through the entire movie because it puts me to sleep!!! I patiently waited until Netflix was able to provide it (45 days later than the release) and was very excited to finally get it. However, when I try to watch it, I get so bored, I fall asleep. I'll try again and if I fail again, I'll just return the movie and get something that makes more sense."
359848,1,"I get it, I just don't like it","Frankly I don't understand a lot of the ""I didn't get it"" reviews. It seemed pretty straight forward to me, but then maybe I've seen the Matrix too many times.This just did nothing for me at all, I mean how many times has this ""are we in a dream or reality"" shtick been done and re-done and re-done? Oh, I know! Let's put a spin on it and say ""Is it a dream or a dream or a dream or reality"". Give me a break.I didn't hate it by any means at all, in fact I think the hotel fight scene was one of the best fight scenes I've ever seen, but I left the theater thinking ""I don't get it"" not for the plot but for why so many people loved this movie in the first place."
359862,1,What was that?,"Inception gave me a strange sense of déjà vu, I felt like I saw this movie earlier in the year and didn't like it when it was called Shutter Island.So is Inception accessible enough to plant the idea of an entertaining experience in viewer minds? In your dreams. No one short of a NASA systems analyst will be able to articulate the plot.One way to salvage some fun with this blunderbuss would be to fall asleep while watching and dream up a better movie yourself. Try it. You'll avoid a headache."
359909,1,not worth buying,doesnt pull the hair out. they are just normal paper. Nair hair removal has better quality of hair removal strips.
359963,1,Paint yourself?,"First, shame on me for not reading the complete description. I did not realize this was a paint-your-own bank. I thought I was buying a polka dot design. The brush and paints were very poor quality, not easy for a young child to use. I had to trim the brush and pick some bristles out of the paint. As a previous review states, the paint colors are not the colors shown on the package. I will use my own varnish as well because one small pot will not cover the entire bank. If you are crafty and have your own supplies, this is an economical choice. Otherwise, spend a little more for a finished product."
359970,1,NEEDED HERE: A DOSE OF REALITY,"This is one of the strangest books I have ever read. Who knows what the truth is concerning Ms. Locke's relationship with Mr. Eastwood? All of these people mentioned in this book are living in Self-Absorption Land. Her relationship with her husband is even more bizarre. Having your cat freeze-dried after it dies? Huh? Oh, yes. Mystical indeed! If they ever decide to make a made for TV movie from this story, it should be presented on the Sci-Fi channel. Beam them all up Mr. Scott, sounds like they are waiting for the flying saucers, anyway!"
360018,1,Out of Focus,"I recently bought a DC4800. I took several pictures inside and out. All of the indoor pictures were way out of focus. I thought that maybe I just got a ""lemon"". After checking around, I found out this is a comon complaint with the camera."
360150,1,SHOULD BE RECALLED -- IT HAS HYDROGENATED OIL,"How irresponsible that a reputable baby food producer like Gerber would add hydrogenated oil to a snack for toddlers! After all we know about the health problems associated with trans fat -- cancer, diabetes, heart disease, infertility, even Alzheimer's -- why would we want to expose our children to these horrible diseases?This product should be recalled until Gerber straightens out the problem."
360195,1,Insulting cover image.,"Attention, publisher: This is one of the most offensive updated covers I've ever seen. Anne is not a blond 20-something model. She's a skinny, eleven-year-old girl with red hair who wears dresses, not Abercrombie knock-off flannel shirts. You should be ashamed."
360215,1,"Great Book/Great Story...Buy it, BUT NOT THIS EDITION!","I couldn't agree more with the comment 'This is Anne of Green Gables.....not Anne DOES Green Gables' ...this book cover is the sorriest excuse I have ever seen used to 'sell' an item...Have we really come to the point that EVERYTHING must have some Playboy centerfold on it, to sell? Come on people...Anne, is a redhead, always has been, always will be...if the girl used for the image really were Anne, Posing like that...Ms. Marilla would have had a fit!! ...Please, for the sanctity of a truly good story...get rid of this cover/edition...Don't ruin this...Please, for those of you reading these comments, buy this book...just not this edition......unbelievable."
360236,1,Buy Anne! But not THIS Anne!,"Seriously, this cover must be BOYCOTTED! Unbelievable. What part of ""REDHEAD"" didn't the cover photographer understand? This is ridiculous. No one should buy this edition--send a message to the publisher that such travesty will not be tolerated."
360331,1,More of the same,"I like Statham. And I think it's an interesting idea of Stalone's to get all of the action stars of the last 20 years into one film. It was great to see those guys again. And Statham is always good in everything he does. Since he is playing opposite Stalone, he, Statham, lends credence to what otherwise would have looked totally tawdry. Aside from the inability of Stalone to actually kiss a girl (seen also in the original Expendables), the action is well-done. It's just that the story is barely believable.I know.....who cares? It's all about shooting hundreds of guys, blowing their head off and somehow escaping any kind of wound whatsover. It's ridiculous. But after all....it's just an ""entertainment."""
360364,1,not what's pictured!,"I should have read the previous review before I bought this. I was dismayed to find that the dual cable pictured is not what was sent. Fortunately, though, when I called the seller they sent me the correct cable without my having to send the wrong cable back and without having to pay more...and very fast. If you want a dual cable, buy the cable that says dual cable in the title....don't depend on pictures!"
360371,1,Worst bike every,"I bought the bike for my sister-in-law, and I bought the men's for myself. She rode it 2 times, and the 2nd time the back brake completly fell off and broke!!! Both the men's and women's bikes where making loud noises. I rode mine 1 time and decided to return it for a better one. So if you decide to buy these bikes, be careful you do not get hurt on it."
360435,1,"Very ""new agey""","This guide to personal freedom achieves the ""freedom"" through what I call situational ethics. That may be unfair in that I couldn't bring myself to listen to the second disc because it ran so counter to my beliefs"
360550,1,Great product - TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE,"I bought this lens in October and loved it. It's great when it works, but the manufacturing sucks, and the lens came apart in under a year. I sent it in for warranty repair and got a bill. I spent HOURS on the phone with Sigma's repair department and, after being passed around from technician to manager to Sales Manager, I was told they'd pay for the repair labor, but I had to pay for parts. They were totally unconcerned with customer satisfaction, totally unconcerned with the reputation of their equipment. They just weren't going to fix the problem with the piece of equipment I paid $800 for. Sigma makes a great product, but isn't at all concerned with customer Satisfaction"
360554,1,Not comfortable,"I can wear the AKG for whole day but I can not wear this 85 for 5 minutes. The hard frame just touches the top left and top right corners of my head, making me feel uncomfortable. After trying for several positions, I know that it is just not fit. I throw it away, without any willing to try to listen to the sound.They said it is for Apple. Only the color looks like. Not the structure design."
360573,1,A mess to empty and broke after second use,"I loved this vacuum for about 10 minutes. Then reality hit. It is a mess to clean out. The dirt cup is way too small, but that doesn't matter because all of the pet hair gets stuck in the area of the canister above the dirt cup, so you have to take the whole thing outside to clean it out each time, because when you remove the cup, dirt falls out of the top. Then you have to use a stick or something to dislodge the dirt at the top. I vacuumed one room the first time, and thought it picked up hair well. On the second use, I did two rooms, and on the second room, the light stopped working, balls of hair and dirt started spitting out the bottom/roller area, and then the vacuum just shut off. The roller kept rolling, but that was all that was happening. It's not clogged, so I don't know what happened. I'm returning it."
360581,1,No Plot!!,"The intro to this book suggested an interesting coming of age type book set in the late fifties. However, after slogging through over two hundred pages, I could continue no more. The book simply has no plot. Tollie's pregnancy seems like an aside, for which I could not develop sympathy for. Likewise when a character dies. You simply do not come to care for these people. I had to put the book down without finishing."
360668,1,Not recommended,"Unfortunately, this radio does not hold a station well, nor does it get clear reception. I do not recommend it."
360675,1,Doesn't work consistently-BIG disappointment,"We purchased this for our 6 year old daughter. She loved using it at first, but it gave the wrong answer at least half of the time. If the pen doesn't hit the EXACT center of the correct answer bubble, it says that it's wrong. What young child is going to use this with such precision? They're not, so it's going to be frustrating and not fun at all. Great idea for a product, but it just doesn't work. Big disappointment. Going to stick with good old flashcards, I guess."
360686,1,Very muted colors,"I already have a decent inkjet, but I wanted one with higher resolution and better photo-realism. I read reviews about the C80. The resolution on it is fantastic. But, after running 4 hours of trials on it (in a serious attempt to achieve decent color), I decided to return it. On my other printer (only 1440 dpi) the colors are crisp, rich, and sharp -- especially the blacks. Looking at conventionally developed photographs, the same can be said. On the C80, the colors are VERY muted -- DULL. I called Epson, and they confirmed that the archival inks have a different tone than their standard inks. The Espson driver doesn't even offer an independent control over the black saturation (even though it does provide one for cyan, magenta, and yellow). If you're looking for realistic photos, this is NOT the way to go if color is important."
360718,1,"Item Defective, Returned Item promptly, Seller did not refund","What else is there to say? if you are selling a candy mold that is suppodly designed to make candy, then if the item ""collapses"" when you pour the hot sugar mixture into the mold, AND you BURN yourself, then, why not refund the purchase entirely AND go back to the manufacturer? First time we had a mold fail. Returned item at my own expense with a letter explaining the mold FAILED and I ended up in Urgent Care with 3rd degree burns. Seller wrote letter back and said ""Item was used so we are going to give you a partial refund."" How about I send them the bill for the injuries sustained as a result of a poor quality product?Avoid .... this ..... Seller"
360733,1,Leaked Everywhere,Very disappointed. I received my shampoo and it leaked everywhere. A third of the product was gone. I wrote a comment regarding packaging and haven't heard a thing back.
360828,1,Nothing,"It did nothing and the pill tastes disgusting, and too much money. I did this for like 4 or 5 maybe 6 months..? No increase. With the lotion with it."
360889,1,miserable joke of a watch,This watch is a joke! Do not buy it.The face is black with dark silver LCD numerals and no light of any kind.You cannot see it except in extreme bright light and then only at just exactly the right angle. Useless at night or even in average room light.I could only barely see the numbers when I held the watch DIRECTLY under a(like 2 inches away)60 watt light bulb.Sent it back the first day. What a waste.
360904,1,"cheap foam, not durable","I bought this plane for my 4 year old son. He was excited to fly the plane, but needed assistance to set it into the launcher. After just 1/2 day of use, the plane ripped apart at the wings from my son putting the plane in the launcher himself. It is poorly made and needs replacements after just a few uses. It does fly well and is fun- but just doesn't last! Thumbs down!!!!!!!!!!!"
360993,1,I stopped around...,"page 100. The plot just did hold me enough to want to go on. It seems too predictable. Maybe I am also overdosing on the virginal (or ""semi-virginal"" in this case) females and the full-throttle testosterone males solving this dilemna. This was my first Sandra Hill book."
361073,1,Phone Tools,"Should have done more research on this before purchasing. The seller was great... but the software doesn't install on Windows XP Media Center edition (confirmed by Motorola tech support). However, I got the cable and CD for next to nothing so it's not like I'm really out anything. I'll just have to build another XP machine to install it on. :)"
361101,1,For FRUSTRATION only,"The very worst available. I spent half of our summer vacation trying to find discs that my pretentious Canon would accept. Only Sony, and only sometimes. Ugh. I used to trust Canon. Now, I will read and write reviews more often."
361116,1,CUT version - Awful compared to full version,"I was Extremely disappointed in this 115 minute version of the movie, The Beast. I could not tell from the information on Amazon that this was NOT the Full 176 minute version. I LOVE the full version. In my opinion this CUT version at 115 minutes loses ALL of the atmosphere that the Full 176 minute version has. I will not watch this chopped up 115 minute mess again. I have the full 176 minute version on VHS that i tape from TV. It does have all of the commercials but I would rather fast forward through the commercials and see the QUALITY version than watch the 115 minute mess. So in the future I will try to check out movies before I buy especially from-importcds and MovieMars.The Beast"
361117,1,"It's a Soap Opera, not a Monster Movie","There's lots of yakking, and not much attacking.Basically we have a soap opera with a few minutes of giant squid thrown in.If edited down to 30 minutes, it might be watchable.I like bad movies, but not this bad. For a similar movie, but much better done, try watching the new colorized version of ""It came from beneath the Sea"", with Faith Domergue, a real movie star."
361118,1,Really bad adolscent attempt,This movie was really bad. It was a mixture of Scooby Do with Thelma and Nancy Drew. It was a very adolscent attempt at making a horror flick. The story was bad along with the acting and make-up of the zombies. I am one that likes B horror flicks and I give this an absolute Z. This movie was filmed like a bunch of high school students got together and made this flick. Stay away from this movie!!!!!!!!!!
361130,1,Ehh.,"I have mixed feelings about this item. It's a great resource tool, when you don't have the internet. When I bought it I didn't realize it was available to listen to (free) on the Yookoso website. Oh well. Still a good product, but I would advise using the website until you think you need the disks all the time."
361211,1,Seconds? Or Poor Quality Control?,"In the package I received, 4 out of 12 hooks were misshaped, with one or both of the hooks not fully formed or missing. It appears that the molds used to form the pieces were not completely filled at the time of manufacturing. These deformed hooks should have never made it past quality control at the factory. You cannot see the deformities until the package is opened so, unless they are selling seconds as first quality, I do not fault the seller. Since I was in the middle of renovations, I did not open the package until after the 30 day return policy had expired. I've learned my lesson! Again, I do NOT fault the seller for the poor quality of this product! But if you decide to purchase these shower hooks, be prepared to buy two sets!"
361229,1,can you define that for me.,This book is a pain. The author can't get to the point of what he is talking about. He gives points of view of deferent people but never gives enough so you can get what he is talking about. I find it hard to understand the subject because of the lack of clear definitions. As a student I find this book hot for the resale. The worst part is I love the class I just can't stand the book.Just my two cents.
361230,1,Does not prepare you for the exam,"I was hoping this book would help prepare me for exam 70-293 but it certainly did not deliver. The material was very general and did not go into nearly enough detail to prepare you for the exam, not to mention pieces of it are incorrect! If you are going to use this book make sure to use supplemental materials as well. In fact, don't use this book at all since it's just a waste of time. I don't know how this book was ever published since it's so off the mark..."
361247,1,Moved problem,Product was easy to install and I will say that it stopped my pipes from bagging.Now the problem is the arrestor makes alot of noise. Basically it just moved my problem from the pipes to the arrestor.
361249,1,Toy looked raggedy,This monkey looked like it had been on the shelf for a long time. It almost looked used. It was supposed to be a gift. Wasn't real happy with it.
361264,1,Bloodlines a disappointing read,"I was surprised how weak,passive and easily led the heroine was. I found it annoying this grown woman calling her grandfather ""Grampy"" throughout the book. The romance didn't ring true. I think this book could have been a really good romantic suspense novel in different hands. The characters are two dimensional as stated by another reviewer. I had a difficult time even finishing this book. I was ready to fling it across the room but hate to waste the money and kept hoping the ending would be a redeeming feature but it wasn't."
361336,1,DON'T PURCHASE FROM THIS SELLER,"Placed the order at 6pm on one day. Next morning at 6am attempted to cancel the order. No reply to first email. Finally replied to second email. Assessed a $10 cancellation fee. 3 days later charged my credit card the full amount. I sent an email. No response. Posted a negative feedback on Amazon. Next morning, received a phone call. The person told me that my refund would be processed minus the $10 charge ONLY after I deleted my negative response. I've waited to post this until my refund was received and will be watching my credit card to ensure they don't do something else. I wouldn't recommend ever shopping from this business."
361383,1,Absolute Lies!,"The entire book is a fiction. Lynn Garrison was employed by the brutal dictators and military regime. He was responsible for obtaining a forgery of a ""medical report"" on Aristide declaring him to be mentally unstable. He was on the military payroll to get Aristide out of power. He later admitted to being paid to get the forgery. If you want a true account of what has been going on in Haiti over the years, read ""The Uses of Haiti"" by Paul Farmer, a man who has lived and worked in Haiti for well over 20 years. Don't believe this self-agrandizing propaganda!"
361486,1,5th undimension,I did not recieve none of the songs I wanted only worthless covers of other artists song..I want a refund of my money
361544,1,The part was damaged before it was sealed in plastic bag,"The reason I know this, Is because there wasnt a broken piece in the sealed plastic bag!! So the piece was damaged before it was sealed!!"
361545,1,Pretty Much Junk,"I started using lip smackers as a kid, and went back to them recently. My lips were desperately dry and I had purchased a bunch for some goody bags for my nieces, and now I am attempting to un-do the damage. The product smells like gross fake strawberry, not the fresh strawberry scent that many body sprays, perfumes, and hair products contain. Additionally this does not hydrate well at all! It wears off with an hour, and makes my lips peal. This also has a shine, so it is really a lip gloss more than a lip moisturizer or chap stick.Perhaps this is just a fun little gift or novelty pretend make up item for little girls. I know I liked them as a kid, but as an adult it just doesn't cut it."
361557,1,"Not a word on C++, It shouldn't be named this way","I wasn't looking for a book on algorithms in C (I already have several of them), I was looking for C++ phylosophy and advantages applied to algorithms. It was very disapointing."
361637,1,This book is overrated,"I bought this book to read on the airplane. It's light and entertaining but I expected more given all the talk about it. I was surprised at how one dimensional the characters were, particularly the black women who live to nurture white children. The bee theme was initially interesting but only served to delay the realization that this was a boring story."
361743,1,YUCK,"This dispenser filter does not just remove the unpleasant tastes from tap water, it adds a taste reminiscent of Hygiea water, which I always hated growing up. If you can tell the difference between regular and diet soft drinks then you are a ""taster"" and tasters could find this trade-off unacceptable."
361808,1,A Real Disappointment!,"I highly doubt this is the best sportswriting of 1998! Littlefield picks two mediocre efforts by Charlie Pierce, and neglects the superb '98 writings of S.I.'s Steve Rushin and Franz Lidz. One has to wonder if a sort of reverse ""race card"" has been played here. This series grows increasingly mediocre. You'd be better off reading Rushin's great ""Road Swing"" and Lidz's astonishing ""Unstrung Heroes."""
361858,1,A piece of junk- DO NOT BUY,"This thing is as noisy as they come, Have seen other reviews and I agree. This thing has a design defect right from the factory. Buy the rival CFF5 instead the rival has a removable bowl reservoir that holds more chocolate so your not constantly refilling the thing."
361898,1,Biggest rip-off ever published,"Fortunately, I didn't buy this book with my own cash, but somebody gave it to me as a gift. Still, even for a free book, I couldn't believe how bad it was. When the major character carves his way out of a Megalodan stomach using a shark tooth I exploded with laughter. Talk about stupid, talk about unbelievable! I notice there is no paperback version forthcoming so for anyone wanting to read ""Meg"", check your local dump, because I threw mine in the trash. There should be a consumer rating for this book, only children 5 years and younger."
361913,1,The reason the illiteracy rate is so high.,"MEG - a novel of deep terror.A novel of unrelenting tedium.A novel devoid of originality.A novel astonishing in its lack of depth.A novel remarkable for its inability to create characters to root for.A novel undeserving of praise of any kind.A novel written because the idea of a really big shark is 'cool'.A novel that makes one weep for the trees that dies to create it.A novel that makes one want to plunge a finger through their eyesocket into their brain, and swirl it around.A novel that, if the choice were given, will cause a person to choose the agony of electrocution rather than read it again.A novel that is a complete, utter, unending waste of time."
361925,1,Fifty Shades of Grey - Frontier Style?,"What a mess of a ""novel"", and I use that term very loosely. What's with the sex starting almost immediately between the two main characters? Good grief, it was horrid. And not even enticingly written. I skimmed over almost all that boring drivel. And, if I had to read the word nipple described as a ""nubbin"" one more time, I was going to scream. Yes, I understand it's a historical novel, but still. And the pacing of the book was horrendous. One minute they are in a house, the next they are ""ravaging"" each other on a train. Huh? When did they get on a train? No segue whatsoever. I would never read another book in this series. Awful."
361939,1,Rollers are terrible,"I have had to replace the rollers numerous times. Quality of rollers are terrible, they will flatten out after a while and will make it hard to go up and down. Do not leave any weights on it when not using. Otherwise it is a very good product when rollers are good."
362037,1,Brief review,"Apparently, Robert Altman is only interested in watching his actors move: during ballet performances, ballet practice -- even outside of the ballet company (i.e. the relationship between a ballet dancer and a chef is more action-oriented than talky). There's very little talking and very, very little character development, purposely, sadly. (You know as much about the characters here as you know about the people performing in a ballet play.) The Company is really a silent film with a few droplets of dialogue -- a joke if you ask me. Unfortunately, I was never engaged by the performances (the first one came close, though). Fans of ballet should get something out of it, though."
362071,1,This looks so LAME,I think that inline is so lame. If you want to see a REAL skating game get Tony Hawk 3.
362108,1,NO!,I don't shave my legs.. love my hairy legs..but I did use this to remove my underarm hair twice!The first time I used it i broke out with what appear to be razor bumps which i have NEVER in my life had! and i have VERY sensitive skin!.I thought maybe it was just a fluke.. dabbed some peroxide and tea tree on and went about my business.I decided to give this venus breeze another try and the same thing happened this time time worse!!I have which look like a zillion bumps under my arms!!...I don't know if it's the gel or the razor which is causing this but never will i use this razor or brand again!.the only positive i can say about this razor is that the gel did lather up pretty good!
362132,1,GIFTED WRITER; POOR AVIATOR?,"This is a very well written book by an obviously gifted writer who seems to describe him self as a careless and irresponsible Naval Aviator. He writes of his little concern for his own crew members. He goes on ad nauseam regarding his fascination with raunchy limericks. He describes his poor flying judgement and careless unprofessional approach to flying safety which results several times in danger to others, unnecessary damage to aircraft and wasteful costs to taxpayers. He talks of his inattention to duty on anti-submarine patrol which would endanger those in the fleet he should have been protecting. The author deserves very high marks as an honest and talented writer but it seems a shame to represent Naval Aviators in such a poor light. My experience as a Naval Aviator leads me to believe the authors actions and attitudes were not typical."
362164,1,useless size...,"as all W and D purses are,this one is also made very well..but..it is a completely useless size..unless it is just for show..you cannot even fit in an I phone..never mind a pack of cigs or a tiny brush."
362168,1,Disappointing overall,"Good's book is a disappointment. His explanations are often opaque; he manages to make even basic things such as type I/II errors and power seem complicated. The few examples he offers are contrived; there is an almost complete lack of real-world examples. His discussion of software is hopelessly outdated and the code he provides is confined to very simple toy problems that any serious student of his book will have no problems attacking. Items cited in the book are missing in the references, and there is also a fair number of typos. Finally, (my personal pet pief), Good doesn't seem to know the distinction between ""alternative"" and ""alternate"" - he alternates between the two without realizing that one is not an alternative for the other... I highly recommend Rosenbaum's Observational Studies instead (at least for randomization inference); it is beautifully written, rigorous, and offers many real-world examples. Good does not even cite it."
362287,1,INCREDIBLY DULL AND UNORIGINAL.,"I wanted to like this movie, but it is truly awful. Worse, it is dull as dirt, with terrible acting. Even Dracula fans will not be able to sit through it. Don't bother unless you need a sleep aid.One hilarious thing...this film is set in the year 3000 and the lounge in the space ship contains a 4X3 TV and VHS machine!?This is not a sequel to DRACULA 2000, DRACULA II or the upcoming DRACULA III."
362337,1,Needs A Rewrite,"While I'm sure this is a classic book, it's very difficult to read. It's a fairly deep subject and that combined with the poor writing makes it really tough to get through. I wish I had known that before I bought it.I'm really surprised given all the glowing reviews.Just be warned. Good content but will take some serious effort to get through."
362361,1,Not My Idea of Sherlock Holmes,"I was surprised when I saw how high the avarage customer rating was for this DVD. Then I thought, maybe it is a cult favorite among people who like campy, bad acting. But, after reading the reviews, I see that a lot of people really like it.So, why didn't I like it? I thought the way Jeremy Brett plays Sherlock Homes was too strange. I know Holmes is meant to be eccentric, but the way Brett speaks is too choppy, kind of angry, and annoying to me. It seemed very affected and unnatural. Dr. Watwon comes off as really dopey.The scenery and sets were good, most of the other actors were good, but this was not my idea of how Sherlock Holmes should be done."
362381,1,Exploitation of a tragedy,"I refuse to see this film. I am offended that so many people feel that it is in any way respectful to anyone impacted by the events of 9/11. It is a typical Hollywood scheme to get rich off of something that should never be considered for profit, particularly since so little time has passed. One might point out that profits were donated to charities, but what is left out is that it was 10% of profits from the first five days the film was open in theaters. This means that 90% of profits (as in everything on top of the ridiculous salaries for most involved) go straight to the pockets of Paramount Studios. At least Cage donated a decent chunk to the Red Cross. I for one refuse to contribute to such a blatant exploitation of thousands that died."
362439,1,Disappointing - Very Topical,"I'm not a big romance reader, but this one seems like it would appeal to that crowd. Very fairy tale, even with author's attempts to set it in everyday society. The plot lines are pretty far-fetched and the Cinderella outcomes are just too unbelieveable. What world-famous movie star gives a darn about anyone they happen to meet at a spa? It was a tad embarassing as the trade paper look of the book fooled me and I was responsible for my book club considering it - then choosing it! This is far from being fiction worth discussing at a book club meeting - much more of a beach book."
362454,1,Dont buy this,"Please, dont buy this. She looks like she got hit in the face with a frying pan, and her clothes are incredibly tacky. Plus, her legs are stuck in that freaky position and she's way too tall."
362476,1,very weird barbie,I agree with most. The doll is pretty much stuck in this bent position. Getting her changed into her other outfit was very difficult. She is way taller than regular barbie. Her arms and legs are about the only thing that is the everflex bendable. My 7yr old played with it for a couple days and thats it.
362505,1,EASY FIX BUSTED Power Packs !,"Over 20 years ago one of the first things that broke in my newly moved into house was the timer on an older model of one of these. I was able to buy just the ""clock"" to do a replacement -- which cost half of a new unit (I'm a long time ham radio operator, so digging inside wasn't a big deal). When that replacement clock went out a few months ago (again, after 20 years), I decided to buy a new unit. After reading the dismal reviews here I came up with a great work around fix. I got one of the electrical outlet timers (these are the cheap clock mechanisms you plug in an electrical socket and use to ""time"" a lamp or other device which you plug in the timer) and plugged my Intermatic power pack into that clock timer (THE INTERMATIC IS LEFT IN THE ALWAYS ON MODE). Now that cheap, easily replaced external timer controls the Intermatic power pack. Take THAT miserable made in Mexico electronics !!! ;)"
362512,1,no vale la pena,"Desafortunadamente fue el unico que habia en la libreria. Este libro está intentando principalmente convencer al lector de que la hipnosis no sea mala para usted. Yo no lo pensaba, ése es porqué compré el libro. En cuanto a el contenido real - desafortunadamente nunca pudé terminarlo. Leí hacia mitad del libro, me aburré y pedi algunos otros.Si hipnosis le interesa y sabe leer ingles - en la lista de libros de brainchanger.com hay bastantes otros y muchos sobre PNL:http://WWW.brainchanger.COMgeneric57.HTML""The New Encyclopedia of Stage Hypnotism"" de: Ormond McGill es un de los mejores.De nada!"
362521,1,Bleh...,"Probably the only difference from the average review here is that mine gives an extra star. I've not read Nightfall but I have read a couple of Asimov's Foundation books (Prelude to Foundation twice). I wanted to see if there were any movies out there of his work. Nightfall was the only one I found so far, so I wanted to check it out...Well, aside from cute Jennifer Burns and finding a few Space-y shots intriguing (for my 2nd star), I'm convinced it doesn't do the book justice---or rather it ruins it. Right away I thought, 'Serious? Low-budget, crappy, acting?, weak, 2000?...etc.' I thought part of it was made in 1970's. Really unfortunate I say. I wonder if they actually collaborated with the man for input or simply went from the book and applied their subpar film skills for such a work.I hope better Asimov films rise from truly talented filmmakers. I'm hoping for Prelude to Foundation 'cuz it's my favorite. And the actress shouldn't just be cute (sorry Jen), but cute AND a great actor."
362526,1,Ugly color,"I ordered this umbrella thinking it would be a neutral canvas or beige color. I got the umbrella about one foot out of the box and said ""ewww"". it is sort of a yellowish beige color. Really ugly. Back to Amazon!"
362536,1,This album bores me to laughter,"The voices on these folks! The man sounds like a depressed child with a head cold, and the woman sounds like somebody dressed up in a mermaid cosume somewhere in Disney Land. I don't know what else to say. The instruments are too light and fluffy, mostly done by a machine, and the whole thing just sounds like a bad, cheesy eighties album. Sort of like Annie Lennox meets Captain Kangaroo. I know 80's rock is making a whacky come back, but guys, listen to the album again and try not to chuckle. It's pretty hard."
362547,1,Still waiting to receive it!,"First they sent the wrong one, acknowledged it and sent paper work to return with promise to resend the correct lamp. 4 weeks later and 3 emails have resulted in empty promises. Not good serivce here!"
362582,1,Some things you shouldn't mess with...,"Dumas is one, particularly if you cannot do better. The authors tried to add some supernatural elements to this story and ended up with a long, disjointed film which probably would have been better as a two-parter. Further, the film is not in English. If you watch in English, the characters' lip movements and the dialogue you hear are so disjointed the effect becomes laughable. The swordplay is beyond unrealistic as well---just one of those extended play battles where the directors clearly have no clue what an actual sword battle is. Give me the original movie."
362587,1,Do your homework before sticking this on your car.,"Peace Corps volunteers provide aid to developing countries. Mostly, they are a corps of college grads with education and skills to share, but not usually any sort of military or intelligence training. Those skills belong to the armed forces, obviously.What are we going to do? Get rid of our military and simply send everybody to help out third world countries? Because, I assure you, sending our MOSTLY non-muslum citizens over to a Muslum country (no, this is not an attack on Muslums) where extremist Muslum terrorist organizations operate ... to try and ""volunteer"" and institute health, education, and environmental programs is NOT the way to fight terrorism. They are not going to say, ""Oh, thank you! You guys really aren't so bad after all."""
362614,1,A waste of money,"I bought this book as I am interested in pearls, and there is a fantastic photgraph on the cover. Well, you can't judge a book by its cover!!! It is poorly written, and full of factual mistakes. The authors are too gushy and breathless in their admiration for certain fashionable women, whom they regard as the last word in setting the styles for we plebians to slavishly follow. page 114 - The date for the Valentino film, The Young Rajah, is given as 1939. It was released in 1923, and Valentino was long dead by 1939. page 132 - ""Miss Scarlet donned a triple strand of pearls for her marriage to Ashley in Gone With The Wind (1939). Did I miss the point of the whole film??? page 61 - there is a photo taken at the coronation ball of Nicholas II. There are 8 assorted Princesses', Duchesses' etc, sitting and standing, but there are 9 names to fit to the women! Well, enough. I think I've made my point."
362624,1,Bad choice,"Although this monitor has a good picture and is priced fairly, you should think twice about purchasing a Viewsonic. Their customer service is atrocious and this is important because it will be needed if your experience is like mine: Your monitor turns itself off and degausses itself. you'll be on hold 45 minutes and pay $50 to have another shipped to you, which arrives and is ""refurbished"". Your ""refurbished"" monitor will stop waking up from sleep mode after a month or so. You'll wish you'd spent the extra $20 and got that Sony. This monitor is the Fiat of displays. You should buy two, as you'll be needing a backup."
362712,1,I didn't even finish reading it,"I figured it would only be fair to give this book one star since I didn't even finish reading half of it. I was so bored with the story and the stubborness of most of the characters that I just gave up. However, I went to the end of the book and read what happened (bad habit)...I was relieved I didn't waste my time finishing the novel b/c it didn't even end in the way I had hoped. I recommend any other of Ms. Rivers novels except for this one."
362720,1,Past Its Prime,"Washed as instructed and it shrunk after two washings. The sheet doesn't lay flat, the backing is wrinkled and the edges turn up. Parents who bought their sheets years ago seem to have had better results. I suspect cost cutting has made the product worse for wear. Definitely not worth the expense."
362736,1,PRAISE FOR THE EAGLE HEIST & RAYMOND AUSTIN,Austin has combined a terrific story with excellent characters for a marvelous read. This is his first book in the Beauford Sloan series. I really look forward to the next.
362783,1,It's a wall paper seam roller! For gosh sakes!!,Don't waste your money. This is a wallpaper seam roller that you can buy at the hardware store for three bucks. It isn't intended for heavy materials like Dynamat.Jeeeez!
362921,1,Where's my Hotdog?!?!?!,"They put 48 songs on this set but leave off ""Planet Hotdog""!!! Why can we not get the entire soundtrack? After ""Planet Schmanet Janet"", it is supposed to go right into ""Planet Hotdog"" and they CUT IT OFF!!! This really cheeses me off to no end!!!"
362982,1,Bummer,I purchased this to replace the origional mirror that was broken by unknown persons in a parking lot . It looks almost the same as the origional but thats where the similarity ends . The glass vibrates like crazy at freeway speeds and to top it all off - it makes a weird whistling sound . I recommend that people spend a few more dollars and get a mirror from the manufacturer . Don't waste your money on this !
363050,1,Size really does matter,"Unfortunately, in recent years there has been an outbreak of mini-publications on Architecture. I have had the misfortune of buying several of them, including this one. This books measures 4x6 inches and is over an inch thick.(Amazon please include the book dimensions in your description)While filled with tantalizing pictures of recent Sydney residential projects, it leaves you disappointed because the images are just too small. The floor plans, elevations and sections, when provided, are hardly legible to serious Architectural review or analysis.In keeping with the miniscule format they have provided a very brief one or two paragraph description of the project which at best introduces you to the project, but leaves you wanting to read more about the site, design, materials, etc.Overall a coffee table book, for smerfs."
363066,1,Not worth the paper it's printed on,"I hate giving bad reviews, but I love telling the truth. This book is full of techniques that any practicing Occultist will have mastered long ago. It's nothing new or interesting, nor anything particularly innovative. The only use I can find for this book is as a self-teaching tool for those with no experience in energy working. If you've worked energy succesfully before, just skip over this one and go for a more useful book."
363081,1,No luck.,"I have owned this trap for 18 months. I have caught zero mice with it. I have caught four mice with glue traps, as well as two lizards. I paid about $20 for this and some stupid electronic repellents. They were garbage. All I needed were glue traps from the 99 cent store."
363084,1,waste,"mice wont even go in the thing. its been out for weeks, i still hear the rats though. i put peanut butter in it, that didnt work, so i tried cheese, that didnt work either. idk what else to do"
363102,1,I need MORE!!!!!!!!!,"Okay, here it is--I've read William Bernhardt for many years and really enjoyed his ""Ben Kincaid"" series. However, I want to get ALL the Ben Kincaid books IN ORDER! Mr. Bernhardt refers to previous books too often and his character has evolved so much, that I want all of the books numbering 1-?TAT"
363176,1,Not that great.,I bought this book because I wanted something to prepare me for my Japanese classes.This book just sits on my bookshelf. It wasn't really helpfull by itself. I'd use this book as reference at the most.I recommend buying Genki: An Integrated Course in Elementary Japanese. It costs more but it is way better than this book.
363230,1,4-in-1 Bath Station,"This is a horrible product. Start leaking with in 2 month, hard to clean. I had to exchange it twice and I end up buying a new DIFFERENT one. Do not recommend it to any one.Unfortunately I can't give it zero because the system wouldn't take it."
363240,1,LEAKS!!!! ANOYING,"This is a good size tub, but it leaks when you move it. What bothers me the most is that, when it leaks, my poor baby starts to cry because she's cold! All of a sudden her warm bath turns into a nightmare. I have to crap her up and refill the tub again, now this is where it becomes FRUSTRATING... Bath time, in and of itself, is a lot of work, and to add a leaking tub, that just draws the line. Hope this helps!"
363285,1,Don't waste your money on this product.,"I had been a long time user of ACT since '99. Back when it was a Symantic product. I Bought Act! 2000 and had used it up until a few weeks ago. It did everything I needed it to, so I never needed to upgrade. That is until we upgraded to MS Office 2003 and the word processor stopped working with the mail merge.I wish I had read these reviews before I bought ACT! 8. It took a month for them to ship it to me. It took 3 days & numerous tries to install it, and it still doesn't run right.It's so slow It's barely usable.Want to find a contact? please wait 30 secondsWant to write a letter? another 30 seconds.Oh and I'm running a brand new Dell laptop, with lots of power.No, this program is garbage. Complete waste of money."
363403,1,RHCP?,"Absolute waste of money! Hillel is spinning in his grave! Anthony needs to stop trying to sing and get back to the funk/rap that made the peppers. I'm not sure if it is their age or lack of drugs, but they should just hang it up."
363404,1,Worst Album,"Everything up to and including Blood Sugar Sex Magik are great. One Hot Minute had its moments, but Calfornication was bad, By The Way was worse, and Stadium Arcadium is just plain Garbage. Save your money."
363419,1,Not a soil meter,This meter work when measuring pH solutions but not soil. Perhaps they need to create a standard procedure to make a soil soultion.
363433,1,"Oh my goodness, how did this movie get made???","This move it just terrible. I mean really raunchy bad. Save your eyes, save your soul, DO NOT watch this terrible movie. It has no plot, no point, only teen sex, teen sex, teen sex... Over and over again. The only people who would enjoy this movie are desperate teen boys who have no life and can't get a girlfriend.Again,Save your soul, DO NOT watch this terrible movie!"
363437,1,Disaster Movie (Fullscreen),"Will, Lisa, and two of their friends attempt to flee man-made and natural disasters and encounter Batman, Hancock, The Hulk, Indiana Jones, Hannah Montana, Michael Jackson, Beowulf, the Love Guru, Iron Man, rabid chipmunks amongst others in their seemingly vain efforts to seek help and shelter from unknown threats. Unfortunately there is not a number low enough to rate this. There is absolutely no reasonable explanation for making this movie. Don't see this movie. Don't spend any money on it."
363494,1,Coke v. Pepsi,"If you want to know the history of the cola wars, then here it is. This explores the origins of Coke and Pepsi and how their rivalry was inflamed. The work was front-loaded; there was more discussion about the origins than about taste challenges and other modern occurrences.The selection of interviewees was small and very homogenous. Though one sees people of all races, ages, and genders drinking the sodas, all the interviewees were older, white men. Moreover, there were product placements galore. For example, one man didn't just discuss Coke; he wore a Coke tie and there was a huge Coke symbol a few feet behind him.Personally, I still like Pepsi better; it's smoother and not as bubbly. While I wanted to eat candy after watching a candy documentary, this documentary did not make me want to run out and buy any more soda than I normally consume."
363495,1,Did not fit,"This charger did not fit the Nokia cellphone as advertised. Not worth the trouble of returning, so I threw it out."
363514,1,Don't buy this - it comes with one!,"Don't waste you money on this. I bought one by mistake, and the process to return it seemed so onerous that I just ate the unnecessary cost. If you are buying a Garmin GPS, it comes with an identical case IN THE BOX ALREADY."
363560,1,Bad Quality of DVD,"Very disappointed with the DVD quality, it is even worse than any new VHS tapes. Even at the first time I played it, some part was not able to play. I wish the DVD/CD purchasing policy covered the case how to handle defect DVD/CD. Contents do cover a lot bellet movements."
363649,1,load times ruin fun,The PSP version of this game has the worst load times. It takes forever just to turn the game on. The interuptions ruin the game experience and make it frustrating instead of fun.
363688,1,Disappointed,"I was looking forward to receiving this CD. When I got it, I discovered that these were re-recordings of the songs, not the originals. While the sound is very similar to the original recordings, they just aren't the same. I expected the originals and nothing about the description warned me that these weren't going to be them. I ended up ordering the original albums to get the songs in their original recorded forms. For me, at least, this was a total waste of money."
363785,1,not the best way to learn mandoin,The DVD arrived fine and all. but the pictur quality was low and it was very difficult to navigate. I addition you have to look around for practice pages and then you have to print them out to use then and the print quality was poor. For about the same price I got a Mel Bay book through my local shop and it came with a far superior DVD. Since it is a book I don't have to print anything.
363863,1,DISAPPOINTED,"Received my chocolate duvet set a week ago. I think it is worth about 10 bucks.There is no substance, just thin flimsy material. I read a review that it faded, so I washed it and it did fade a bit. It must have shrunk because my comforter is too big and is now bunched up inside the duvet.I did like the look of the chocolate suede in my bed room.Last night I found that it was hard to keep on the bed. The bottom lining is a taffeta and slide, slide, slide all over the place. I woke up this morning with two thirds of it in the floor. My bed has no foot board, but good luck keeping it where you want it.Mine will slide on over to GoodWill donation box."
363904,1,Really Not Worth The Hassle,"I've owned this memory card ever since I accidentally bought it with my PS2 in 2002. It's worked with every game I've used it with. Unfortunately, the memory card is a huge, huge hassle. You have to insert the CD EVERY time you want to use the memory card. You may think it's not much of a hassle but it is!Having been dealing with it for 3 years now, I can tell you that I will not play my PS2 just because I don't feel like swapping CD's. Plus, if you insert a game and press the button to try to boot from the CD before the disc has spun-up (making the little whirring noise) the Memory Card software just locks up and you have to go through the entire process again. Just spend the couple extra bucks and buy the Nyko (the ugly yellow one) or the official Sony PS2 ones ... you'll have earned your money back in time and annoyance saved in about a week."
364024,1,"Awesome sound, but DVD function broke after 2 years","Other reviews are right: It takes about 2 years before the DVD player malfunctions. Ours did last night, after purchasing it in Oct 2002. We're looking at significant repair costs. Awesome sound is N/A if you can't enjoy the main function of the unit (video)."
364045,1,Light on animal facts...,I thought this would be a fun learning game for my boys. It came with cards that talked about mortgages & food/water for the animals without any explanation of how to use that information. We ende dup just skipping that part & buying animals & charging basic rent when others landed on the space. It would have been so much better with animal questions or facts plus directions.
364130,1,Close but just a deep fly...,"While 2K5 revamps the baseball genre a bit with flashy graphics and new components it falls short in a nmuber of areas. And when compared to EA's MVP 2005 it is even worse. 2K5 employs stunning graphics but thats about it. The pitchers all seem to have the same ""stuff"" where Jason Schmidt's 99 MPH fastball acts looks and is basically the same as Kirk Rueter's. Whereas the outfield arms of Vladimir Guerrero and any other player are the same. The hits seem to follow a familiar patter of animation and action and it all gets kind of old. The smash zone is ludicris and should be relegated to such games as Slugfest or MLB Street if it existed. All in all MLB 2k5 is just average, the simulation core is weak and the overall style just falls short. But for 20$ it's not a bad buy."
364188,1,"Did They Really Need to Rip-Off Pamela Anderson ""V.I.P.""","Title of my review pretty much says it all. This show often copied the same plots as Pam Anderson's ""V.I.P."" which isn't saying a hell of a lot, but at least V.I.P. pulled theirs off with style. Boo.And of course they're releasing it on the same day as V.I.P. to confuse the marketplace and hope a few fools pick this disc set up instead. Double Boo."
364203,1,daisy 15xt,mine was ok the first few times i shot it and after that it was s*** the peircing screw broke it was inacurate as hell i regreted spending money on it i recomend a crossman c11 or umarex or somthing
364213,1,"Disappointing but free, so I can't complain too much","Disappointing but free, so I can't complain too much - but I sure am glad that I didn't pay for it"
364224,1,Does not fit HP V2000 Laptop,I'm assuming that other people have other laptops in the V2000 series. This product does NOT fit into my HP V2000 laptop. I'm off to the HP website to buy the real replacement part since I'll know it works.
364242,1,Needs to be more realistic,"Have to type too much, and the little stick figure of Vanna is disappointing. Higher technology makes this a simple, basic choice now."
364249,1,Broken product,Not sure how the product is because it came broken. It was packed in the shipping box pretty terrible. Still waiting on my refund.
364320,1,Hands and fingers trapped in two of the sides,"I bought the Busy Zoo at Target and my then twelve-month old twins liked it very much, although it did not take my son long to learn to tip it over and reach inside the hollow underside. After a month, however, both my babies started getting their hands and/or fingers trapped and pinched in the two sides with spinning wood blocks. They would cry and could not get their hands and fingers out without my help. I did not, however, have peeling paint, as others have. I took the Busy Zoo away, of course. Interesting that the description for the product reads for one-year olds, but there is a warning for choking hazards on the Amazon page, stating not for children under three."
364328,1,Beware of WiFi,"First of all I want to say that the seller was great and offered a refund on this horrible item. After trying for a couple of hours to get this product to work, I found out that it doesn't work on alot of computers. Now I have to go through the trouble of shipping it back."
364329,1,worst book ever,"This summer, every time i went to the library i would look for Crispin and the Cross Of Lead. When i found it and read it honstly i thought it was one of the worst books ever writen! I don't want to give away the ending but the plot in the end is the worst one i've ever read! The whole time i was reading this book i was thinking; how could this book win any medal besides worst book on the face of the planet? In my opionion 0 stars would be an over-raiting of this book!"
364330,1,it's sorta okay (kinda),There was no action. My stupid teacher made me read it. What an awful deal. The star wars series should have been the book to read. awful
364337,1,Questionable,"I wish I felt the same as the other reviewers. I didn't find the H & H to be as memorable as I would've liked. What jumped out at me was the scene where the heroine wanted to make love to the hero after she was harassed and threatened to be raped in an ally. I have a friend that was nearly raped, and the last thing she had on her mind at that time was sex, which makes the scene a little hard to buy. If it weren't for that I'd feel better about the story."
364341,1,Had allergic Reaction,"Seller was kind enough to refund part of the order, but I did have an allergic reaction to these pills. So wouldn't recommend trying these until you are in a safe environment to deal with hives or allergies. (I was in Belize on a small island... didn't work out so well lol)"
364354,1,"A ""case"" of poor design","I purchased this product from a retail vendor. The pen is about the only thing of real value. The case looks great from the outside but to secure your handheld in it, you have to stick a velcro square to the back of the handheld. I refuse to disfigure my m500 in this manner."
364560,1,Disappointed,"I can't really give this product much a rating, because I was unable to use it. We ordered it in order to use our Sega Genesis, but it does not fit. I don't know if it is an updated version, or if it is just not what it was marketed as, but it was unusable, which was very disappointing."
364690,1,Too small,"This bag is very nice and well constructed. However, I bought it to fit my Nikon D90 digital camera and it is simply too small."
364737,1,very dissapointed. expensive hype.,"I'd been using the Sweet Almond Mint Wen for about a month prior to this purchase. Wanted to get the Tea Tree formula to help with winter hair...dry, flaky scalp. The scent of this is so/so, but more importantly...it simply does not work. Not only did it not help with scalp issues, I had to wash my hair every single day or it would become very oily. Sebastian Tea tree shampoo/conditioner is much more effective for scalp issues. Don't waste your hard earned money on this...not worth it."
364740,1,a total disaster,"There were several problems with the product I received:1. no power cord. I had a spare, so I used my own. I connected the drive to a USB port, used the DVD drive to install the software and everything seemed fine. Until...2. the drive wouldn't recognize any DVDs. I tried two Verbatim DVD+R discs and neither was recognized. So, I got a commercial video DVD and a DVD-R produced by a friend. Nothing.3. I called the Amazon partner dealer who sold me the drive. They said that they have had a lot of returns on this piece. Mostly due to the missing power cord, but the rep didn't know whether anyone else had gotten a DVD drive that wouldn't even recognize DVDs.They're sending a UPS return label and I'm returning it."
364743,1,Worst French textbook,"This textbook was required for a course I gave to language teachers in French. I didn't choose it. I would never have chosen it. The pictures were so bad, everyone ended up laughing. The French really being taught wasn't terribly useful, and the ""story line"" was downright boring. The grammatical explanations were sketchy, but the very worst thing about the book was that it was so ho hum. I tried the book again with a long-time student, and he lasted about 3 lessons before he dozed off. Facon de parler is not the French facon. They are a very interesting people, even when they're just talking about mushrooms, and this book far from does them justice."
364777,1,Stay true with two!,"If I ran Schick I'd immediately pull the Quattro from the market, declaring it a flawed product. I would then focus on a new ad campaign touting the benefits of the good ol' fashioned two blade models."
364795,1,Pads don't stick and it kills batteries,"I like the idea of the product, but I find two major problems with it.. First, after I took the first pad off, I've now tried 5 new pads and the first pad basically gunked up the velco so bad that nothing will stick to it now.. I've tried cleaning off the velcro, but it's basically just dirt cheap velcro. So now I put the pad on the floor and push it around with out sticking.. Can't tape it it (this gets wet, remember).. Second, I find out that my heavy duty rechargable batteries only last about 4 days.. Maybe a sum total of 15 minutes of mopping time and a few minutes of actually spraying time.. It seems like there is a serious current leak in this pump system...I've used it about a dozen times now and I'm throwing it away... It's a good product idea, but I must have gotten a bad one since others have had better luck because this was a pure waste of money.. I think i'll stick to a standard mop for cleaning and get a plain old swiffer for dust..."
364836,1,Much more traditional than you'd think...,"The cover and the title of this book imply a funny, light-hearted, less-tradtional approach to the adventure/ordeal of planning a wedding. In truth, other than stressing the importance of doing what you want, rather than what you're being told you *should* want, this book is very traditional in its advice and approach. While the author does mention a few less traditional weddings in passing (mentioning marrying while skydiving numerous times), none of her advice is geared toward anyone actually taking one of these paths. Also, she seems to assume that every reader has the average $20,000 to spend on a wedding. One would think that a ""best friend"" might have had a few cost-cutting hints here or there. I give this book only two stars because it does not live up to its appearance. It's perfectly good for those of you having a traditional wedding; just make sure you have lots of money to spend if you're going to follow the advice."
364855,1,I thought I would enjoy this book ~,"When I first starting reading this book, I knew it was made into a movie as I was reading it then I remember I did see the movie. I think I would have love this book if the plot was different, I couldn't get pass the fact that, Maggie fell in love with her first love's son it wasn't the age difference, I wouldn't mind if she fell in love with a younger guy not having nothing to do with her first love son's sorry this book didn't do it for me."
364856,1,"NOT AS ADVERTISED!!!!! 1, NOT 3!!!!!","The ad clearly states that this price is for 3 of this lipstick, not only the 1 I received. The only reason I ordered is that the price listed was good value. When the listed price plus shipping is higher than I ever paid in the store, it becomes a ripoff. I will not order from this seller again.[...]Scroll down to ""Product Description"" where it clearly states ""3 pack."""
364863,1,The Best of John Denver,This is an import CD. The music is still very good but remember that these versions of the songs may not be the ones you remember growing up and listening to on the radio. I therefore gave it only one star because I was hoping that the cd had the original studio versions.Best of John Denver.
364897,1,What happened?,Huge letdown from FSG (which I consider a haunting and brilliant piece of work). What happened to these guys? It's like they're just going through the motions on this one. Quick-someone zap them with a defibrilator.
365039,1,Mic is crap,"When it works it is pretty good, but the mic only worked for 2 weeks. Nothing specialed happened to the headset.So i am pretty disapointed. Don not by this."
365077,1,"Yeah, one Nickelback was more than enough...","They do sound exactly like Nickelback. I won't harp on it because that's all been done, but just face it - they're an imitation...to Nickelback what Hoobastank is to Incubus, except that Incubus is good...But just forgetting all of that for a moment...they're not any good. The singer's voice sounds over-enunciated and forced and the songs are, well, in a word, lame. Topping the lame charts is ""Lips of an Angel."" If you're looking for a whiny, self-important tune about a guy who just can't *sniffle* pick between two girls and has to have secret goo-goo-whispery conversations with the ex while the current g/f sits ""blissfully"" unaware in the next room, then this is your band. ""Oh, everyone, feel my pain because I couldn't POSSIBLY break up with the girl I supposedly don't like and go back to the one I supposedly do, 'cause then I wouldn't be a playa, yo."" Gag me. Go away."
365101,1,not what I hoped for,"This wasn't at all suitable for a regular sized Kindle. It was much too small to see and the cartoons were fuzzy. I got the Kindle for PC and had it sent there where I could see it, but it just seemed like there wasn't much to it."
365139,1,Old Lexmark cartridges w/ new stickers - they didn't work.,Not a drop from either the color or black and white - Huge waste of money and time.
365158,1,No cable/ satellite box... don't buy!,"So, I got this upconverter/recorder to give as a christmas gift. It doesn't record if you do not have a cable/satellite box. Otherwise, the upconverting works good... If you do have a cable/satellite box I suggest you purchase and HDMI cable for the best picture."
365199,1,Sales pitch for his show,"Not impressed, seemed to be nothing more than a sales pitch for himself and his show.Read like a rap song, how great he is. If you have to sell yourself that hard, you have self-esteem issue.Can get the same tips by just watching his show. But then, what would you expect from someone on CNN."
365210,1,Beware...Attack Knives,"I'd give it a ""0"" if I could, but since I can't a ""1"" it is.After a while the knives started being rejected and spit out not matter if there was only one in there or five. Luckily, no one was hurt. We tried cleaning it to no avail. Never really liked how little black pieces of plastic came out when you pulled out a knife. Good concept, needs work."
365234,1,Dissappointed,"This is a great book for people who can already read Russian, ecspecially for my kids because they can color in the objects as they're learning the words. (It's like a coloring book - so deffinitely more kid oriented.) However there aren't any translations into English nor are there any pronunciation guides, making it difficult to learn to actually say the words correctly."
365285,1,Not worth the purchase,"There are a lot of books out there that talk about child development and what to expect for new parents. This book really does not give you any specific things to look out for. Basically it is written like a self help book with not much in the way of guidance. For child development get the book called ""Baby Steps"" by Claire B Kopp, PHD. In addition, the stuff in this book is made into an applicable 5 step process for calming your baby in the DVD and book called "" the happiest baby on the block"".The Dr. Spock books dont go into depth in any one area. I suggest finding specific topic books on the areas of interest to you. A lot of things in this book are things that once I had the baby did nothing for me. In addition, when you leave the hospital , the nurses and pediatrician seeing your child at the hospital go over this with you prior to being discharged.Don't waste your money on this book."
365294,1,Sent the wrong CD and I never got the item I purchased!,"I bought this CD right before christmas for my mom. The package arrived on time but instead of The String Quartet's Tribute to Radiohead it was the String Quartet's Tribute to Celtic Woman. That really sucked. So I emailed them and asked them to send the correct CD, that is all I wanted, but instead they let me keep the wrong CD for free (which I didn't even want anyways, and was promptly thrown away) gave me a refund, and never sent the correct CD! I definitely will not be purchasing anymore CDs from them because you never know which one you will get!"
365425,1,missing information,"In this set it does not contain any information on Dick York even though this is his last season on the series as Darrin. However, they did put in an informercial in Spainish before each show on the later disc's with no english translation at all.A little back ground on Dick Yorks years as Darrin would have been a great bonus but alas not to be."
365431,1,no customer support at all,"I love the way it cooks, BUT the knob broke after I'd had it for about a month, and used it about 4 times (once a week). I glued it back together (as I saw someone else had done in a previous review) but the knob broke again today, and I'd only used it about 3 times since glueing it. I tried to get help from their customer support and was put off and then just ignored.I would recommend buying something else other than this one."
365437,1,"Good idea, poor execution","I have several CDs of orchestral or quartet arrangements of songs originally written as rock. In addition, I am a huge Foo Fighters fan. I was very excited to get a hold of this CD, so much so I ordered it without having heard any of the arrangements. Unfortunately, the arrangements are repetitive and unimaginative, and do little to bring out the energy of the original songs. The performances are at best adequate, and nothing to shout about, and the audio is poorly mixed on the CD- the cello sounded extremely muddy to me.I feel that to be worthwhile, a CD of this sort needs to have cuts that are as good in their own right as the original songs. I have some like that, especially a Led Zeppelin symphonic tribute called 'Kashmir'. I am as likely to pop it into the CD player as I am an actual LedZep CD. I would never choose to listen to Resident Adolescence over the original Foo Fighter versions- they simply aren't good enough."
365455,1,CD Sucks,One of the worst cd's I own. I am 56 years old and by far this is one of the worst albums I have ever heard. I gave my copy away and took it out of my 80gb i-pod and out of my computer. I collect salsa not garbage. My collection is about 500 albums and about 200 cd's.
365460,1,Misled,"I was very disappointed as I was sent a DVD in French! It appears there is a way to get the episodes to play in English but French is the primary language, even on the cover! I do not recall seeing this in the description and felt very misled. When I went to go back and re-check the item on amazon it was no longer available."
365465,1,Cannot Install,I have Windows 98SE and this will not install. Support has not been helpful (nothing more than automated replies). Don't waste your money.
365501,1,Thanhouser Collection,The info on this DVD is misleading. These are not complete classic silent short films but excerpts from 7 films. The quality if poor and I was truly disappointed. Now I'm stuck with something I cannot enjoy. I wish I could have returned it!
365510,1,Serious disappointment,"I was on the fence as to whether to get this book, because I only get one of the two series it combines (""The Ultimates."" I've tried ""Ultimate X-Men"" and found it to be a disapointment.) Still, the writer promised there would be ramifications for both series, so I gave it a shot... and was seriously let down.There are definite ramifications if you've been reading ""Ultimate X-Men,"" but not much has changed for the reader of ""The Ultimates."" Even if you're into ""X-Men,"" there isn't much meat here. You've got four issues of ill-defined fights with little plot or intrigue other than ""Magneto is bad and the Ultimates think the X-Men are working with him so there must be lots of fighting."" This does not make for good comic book storytelling.In truth, I would have given this book one star, but I bumped it up a notch for the climactic battle between Captain America and Wolverine -- the way it turned out was something I've always longed to see."
365521,1,Good idea... Terrible Implementation,As one person stated before some balls get stuck in the tube and you have to take it apart and cram something through it to get it out. The dispense part does not work well because after you empty the balls in the tube the balls from the bag don't free flow back into the tube. Terrible purchase in my opinion. I took it back.
365528,1,Very upseting purchase,the blender looks very attractive but hardly works. quite a bit of time even crushing a tomato. hard to believe
365534,1,=sucks,I cant bleave this I got it for christmas and i thought it would be a little more fun the point is if you like games like zelda wrestlemania 2000 or even DK 64 this wouldent be for you but if you are some nerd who lives for chess then this is for you
365574,1,I don't think so!!!,"I had to come to amazom.com to see what everybody else said because every chapter re-iterated what the previous chapter said, he could be friend or foe, murderer or wrongly accused. I got fed up and wrote this review in the middle of page 83. I skipped ahead two chapters and more of the same. Hardly any dialogue between them and no real assurance of his identity. This isn't the last Lisa Jackson novel I'll read but I have read much better. Temptress...I don't think so."
365578,1,"Worked great, then it died","I got this charger and used it only with my powerex batteries. After only a couple of months the charger died spectacularly. It overheated or something and part of it melted. I wish I had taken pictures of it before I threw it out, oh well.I'm sure it's a great charger and I got a fluke defective one. But it still gets a 1 star rating."
365629,1,"Poorly written, but still fun to read if you are a real fan","No surprises here. Everything is rather predictable. This is NASCAR's answer to Harlequin Romance novels. Just as women like Harlequin Romance novels despite poor writing, stock car fans will like this book.Characters are rather one dimensional and very very predictable (gee, is Bubba going for food again?). The dialog is extremely stilted. Names of real race car drivers are thrown in for fun (wonder if royalties are paid?) but you will know the outcome before you reach that page. Considering the early days of the sport, it would have been interesting if the promoter screwed Jodell Lee out of his winnings. At least that would have been a plot twist (albeit the first and only plot twist).Still a fun read for at the beach or when your mind is in neutral (or perhaps reverse)."
365713,1,Donot buy it,"I bought it for my daughter in Jan. 2010. The remote did not work well. When you pushed the player button, it only played around 1 mintue song and stoped."
365739,1,"Hmmmm, Really now?","I am skeptical of this author. She says she was obsessed with MJ and now she has a book coming out talking about their ""relationship"". This could all be in her mind, well at least the sex part."
365783,1,Warning: May Be Boring,"I kept complaining all through the book that it was trite, boring and vague. My husband asked me why I kept reading it. Not being one to give up until the last page, I forged ahead and finished. Sorry to report it didn't get any better. I'm not much of a fan of fiction though...so read it at the risk of wasting your time."
365805,1,Do Not Leave Outside,"Was extremely disappointed with the net. Was especially difficult to set up by myself, expensive, and because I was looking for convenience I left it standing once I got it secured. Literally rotted after about a week. Sad lesson learned. Looks like they went with the cheapest materials available. At least they got a little profit out of me before I cut them loose forever. Nice job, Wilson."
365813,1,"Over rated, diapponting read.","When I purchase this book, I was full of hope and execting to learn something from the author, but it is a disappointing read. It has very few teachings, instead it has lots of Star Gate theories, if I want to watch TV, then I do not need this book.This book is NOT for people who wants to learn remote viewing. And it is 609 pages, very time consuming."
365911,1,It's just bad,"I've been a fan of Mr. Clancy's books for years, but I'm sorry to say that this book just sucks. From top to bottom, this was just a bad story. Jack Jr. is annoying and can't seem to stop talking about or thinking about his famous dad, and all the other characters were so boring and two dimensional that I can't even remember their names. I have to admit, I stopped reading the book with about 50 pages to go because I just couldn't bear the thought of spending another second reading it. I hate to give such a bad review but really, save yourself the pain and don't read this novel. If anything read (or reread) one of his classics (Sum of All Fears, Debt of Honor)."
365924,1,Disappointed,"I've read all the Clancy books except Red Rabbit, and that because the reviews were so bad. I love Clancy and love his politics, but this book is way short of expectations. I was able to skim pages and not lose the story, not so in his earlier books where you had to read every word. Much of it was filler. The story could have been told easily in 200 pages. The story was also very predictable. Very disappointing."
365930,1,Radical Left-wing reading,"The only people that could agree with this book are far, far left wing. Candence simply rides on her brother's fame and runs roughshoud over him. This is one book that should stay in the closet."
365938,1,I wish you love,I wanted to here a sample of it on the amazon.com but couldn't and it kept asking me if I had listened to it. There was no way or option to be able to listen to it.
366016,1,Waste of Time,"A very simplistic book void of meaningful content. The best political books do not pander so gleefully to partisan politics but seek to understand the fundamental positions of each side, wether they agree or not."
366032,1,This book is extremely scary!,"This book scared the hell out of me! I loved the week by week idea of showing mother and baby development, but each week was filled with a new horror. One week it was car accidents, the next some rare condition called molar pregnancy which may result in hysterectomy! The woman on the cover of the book looks quite serene, obviously, she has not read the contents. A far better book is the Complete Book of Pregnancy and Childbirth by Sheila Kitzinger. ALthough not in a week-by-week format, the book is wonderfully informative and positive, and the pictures are beautiful!"
366040,1,Only read if you want to worry of what could go wrong instead of learning about your baby's progression,"The earlier editions of this book are wonderful for learning about your baby's development during your pregnancy; however, in this book, the fifth edition, there is very little information about your baby. It is filled page to page with medical problems. As a pregnant mother of four healthy children, I am getting rid of this book because it worries me needlessly whenever I open it up. If you want to scare yourself then this is the book for you. If your doctor diagnoses you with a problem that you want more information on, then get a book that focuses on that problem. If you want to feel a closer bond to the blessing inside you, try an earlier edition and focus on what your new baby is experiencing instead of worrying about the few and far between infinite medical conditions that could be traumatizing for you and your family.Best Regards,Melissa"
366047,1,Awful product,"The overheating, shutdown thing just happened to me as well this week. From what I gather, it's a lost cause at this point.But even before that, there were problems . . .the amp wasn't especially strong, it wouldn't play some CD's, and forget about picture discs.I'm just glad mine lasted almost 3 years."
366057,1,Middle Eastern recipes from 2000 years ago are not hard to find,Do yourself a favour and leave the worship in the church and go out and buy your self a middle eastern cuisine cookbook. It will have better recipes and not make a mockery of JC. No one knows what Jesus ate and simple non-processed foods are easy to come by. I wouldn't buy this book because I didn't want to contribute to the A-hole trying to make a buck off a messiah.
366099,1,Disappointed,"I bought the game and put it in to play, the playstation logo then the capcom logo shows up and then it goes blank. I waited a few minutes and then click the restart button. The same thing happened but this time I waited for about 5 minutes and still blank screen. This was my first experience puchasing online and I'm very disappointed. Now I have to go to the post office to send it back and hopefully get another game that works. If the 2nd one comes back still not working, I'll going to stay away from online ordering."
366116,1,So not worth the price,"I bought this all clad crock pot because I love all clad's cookware. I loved that I could program the start of the cooking and the total cook time. What i did not expect was for it to just stop working after about 20 uses. It was dead as a doornail with $15 worth of organic chicken in it that I had to throw out. Everything lit up, it just never got warm enough to actually cook anything. Incredibly disappointing!"
366153,1,Beware,"This company offers overpriced screens and is unresponsive and unfriendly to customers who have a problem. If you want a less expensive screen protector of simiilar quality, try Clarivue."
366161,1,Half fast job...,"This book isn't what i expected. I expected this to teach me DirectX instead it throws functions at me, and shows an example. For the complete program of each function, I look on the CD and theres lines of code he hasnt covered and doesnt bother to explain. Andre Lamothe does a half fast job of explaining DirectX. I give this 2 stars because I was enjoying the book up until Chapter 9. His Windows coverage was very good. This book is 3 years old now, but thats now excuse for the poorly described code."
366171,1,This Game Stinks!,"Do not by this game! I repeat do not by this game! If you like opening doors this game is for you, but as you can see it isn't for me."
366216,1,Service Plan Never Received!!!,"I have never received any correspondence from this company. They were supposed to send the service plan within 2-3 weeks after I received the television. However, as I stated - I never received the plan!!"
366447,1,STILL NEEDS TO BE IMPROVED.,This Canon PSC-60 Deluxe Case is just good to hold my newly-purchased Canon A560. I did not notice there is a shortcoming to this case until it happens. The front bag used for holding batteries is not tight enough. I have had my batteries fallen to the ground at least three times. Have to have this Camera case returned due to its poor design.
366448,1,Cannon Camera Case,"I was very disappointed in this case. The camera fits in, but the only way to carry it is a belt-loop attachment. If it wasn't so much trouble I would have returned it."
366477,1,BUYERS---BEWARE!!!,"this is definately a must have for anyone with a mullet!!!!!BUY A REAL ALBUM BY THE REAL hotwatermusic, NO DIVISION!"
366765,1,"Solid machine, albeit quite noisy","This machine is loaded with all of the main necessary software and operates under Windows XP decently. My main complaint is the constant loud and annoying fan noise that drove me to distraction. I had to crank up the volume on music to not hear the fan. Playing music at normal volumes with any interludes of quietude are unreasonable. For this reason alone, I returned the computer.This is the second eMachine 'puter I tried after a span of about 6 years. Excessive noise on the prior one led me to return that one too. Maybe their more spendy models handle this noise problem better, but since price is what motivates most people to consider eMachine 'puters, why bother?"
366879,1,"""Nikayada"" Buddhist tradition","For those who seek to follow the early teachings of the Buddha in the earliest of the suttas and those who follow the modern commentary of John Peacock and Stephen Batchelor, it is only fitting to research their shared resource, K. R. Norman. Mr. Norman, a former foremost distinguished professor of Middle Indo-Aryan or Prakrit at Cambridge, authors a most scholarly approach and commentary to the translation of the early Pali texts. With this as a starting point it becomes more apparent when later revisions or commentary by subsequent writers are added to the cannon. It is not particularly easy reading nor bed time reading; however, it is most important in understanding the later development of the Theravada Buddhist tradition of Buddhagosa in The Path of Purification (Visuddhimagga) and the Mahayana tradition of Nagajuna and Bodhidharma."
366937,1,Not so much.,Nope. Works better as a hair serum than on my skin. It eliminates frizz wihout weighing my baby blonde fair hair down and won't cause breakouts. Disappointed with it as a facial....anything. Oh well. I say buy obaji and save your money on this product.
366980,1,Tension terrible,"I am returning the machine after three days of use. There is no way to adjust the lower thread tension, and it is too loose to make the machine usable. I am sewing on basic cotton scraps, but the tension is so loose, even after repeated adjustments, that the seams will not hold. Very disappointed."
367043,1,do not buy this item,"item was near splashing water, never submerged and got water moisture in left lens within first 30 minutes of use. so much for being water proof. product also says it floats, based on false waterproof claim, i would recommend not seeing if it floats! do your self a favor any purchase a different brand. horrible!"
367046,1,No wireless web or text messaging,I just bought this phone to replace a broken one and much to my dismay it doesn't have wireless web or text messaging capability!
367073,1,So plodding I couldn't finish it,"I loved Airframe by the same author and was intrigued by the idea of time-travel as a theme in this one. What I WASN'T prepared for, or excited about was the entire book turning into a medieval adventure. Just not the kind of story that flips my switch. It's like I walked into a steakhouse and was served pizza instead. About three quarters of the way into the book, it got sooo slow I finally just skipped ahead to see how it ended: Predictably."
367109,1,"Poor, hack writing","The technology Crighton describes is far more interesting than the drivel he put forth in this obviously 'for money' work. The storyline leaves no surprises, with the author often leaving this reader more bored than interested in the storyline. He obviously researched some of what he wrote into the book and gives a basic understanding of some of the concepts such as Quantum Mechanics and the history of twentieth century physics. However the characters are all very pale, and he follows a similar plot line to Sphere where #1. something happens #2 assemble a team of experts to fix the problem. BORRRRING! I really fell ripped off at this hack work and will not purchase another of Crightons future works."
367200,1,Not in the same class as The Forever War!,Don't look here for another classic of the caliber of The Forever War. This is just another uninspired book among many that are out there. The soilderboy concept has promise but it was never developed in a way that captures the imagination.
367205,1,good gun but short life,"This gun is great, except for the short life span. I've gone through five of the guns over the last 2 years. I install base board in track housing, so hose free is almost necessity. I did the math and they shoot about 100,000 nails before they wear out, which could last a life time for some. My batteries are all worn out and its time to switch to a pneumatic hitachi."
367230,1,"Just like ""Who Moved My Cheese"" - Simplistic/Fairy Tale","Choose your attitude, Play, Make their day and be present.There I saved you the 2 hours it takes to read this book."
367300,1,Body Artist is the Emperor with No Clothes,"The Body Artist by Don DeLillo is a good example of ""The Emperor Has No Clothes"" syndrome in a book. It is creatively experimental, parts are breathtaking in its poetic observation, it is fascinating at times, but ultimately, the story is confusing and not especially interesting - although at a little more than 100 pages you don't have time to become completely bored. It is possible that in Mr. DeLillo's quest to write something out of the ordinary, he has left most readers behind. I strongly recommend his brilliant novel ""White Noise"" (5 of 5 stars for me), and his equally brilliant ""Libra"" over this highly creative but confusing experiment that didn't always work."
367392,1,Just Spend an Extra 10 bucks On the Mp3/Disc,"My experience with this discman lasted me a pretty long time, before it just wouldn't recognize any disc at all. But don't worry, that was about 3 years after i got it. It plays good, the menus are exceptional, but i am wondering why anyone would want this, when you can get the Mp3 / disc player from Philips for twenty dollars more. They are 20 times more high-tech, the menus actually give you the titles of song names (at least most of them) and they truly are jogproof. This is barely jogproof. It only has 45 second shock proof while the new mp3 disc player i got has unlimited. Trust me, you'll be happier if you left this one alone"
367432,1,What happened?,"Up to this album I have absolutely loved Iona's music. They had a perfect mix of Rock and Celtic. On this album, almost every song has a screeching lead guitar overwhelming the rest of the music. I finally had to shut it off as it was like fingernails on a chalkboard! I hope they return to their roots. They are wonderfully talented musicians."
367494,1,DO NOT USE THIS !!!,I have inquired about this to an avian specialist.. and she said that it is not good for the birds feet .I am not saying that people who are using this for their birds are at risk . Please check with your avian specialist before you buy this !!!
367499,1,What the hell?,"Holy hell, this is real? What kind of retarded country actually allows this sort of thing to be sold to kids?America... you make me sick. Remind me never to raise a child there.And this isn't about the political leaning of the views in the book... pro lib, anti lib, I don't care. Children shouldn't be exposed to this."
367502,1,Raising Killers for Christ,You know . .I am so happy to see that some people have actually studied their history lessons ... it is obvious the writers and purveyors have. Everything in this book and it's collection are word-for-word culled from Nazi and Soviet propaganda.Raising a culture of killers must make you all so very proud.
367519,1,You've Got To Be Carefully Taught,"You've got to be taughtTo hate and fear,You've got to be taughtFrom year to year,It's got to be drummedIn your dear little earYou've got to be carefully taught.You've got to be taught to be afraidOf people whose eyes are oddly made,And people whose skin is a diff'rent shade,You've got to be carefully taught.You've got to be taught before it's too late,Before you are six or seven or eight,To hate all the people your relatives hate,You've got to be carefully taught- Oscar Hammerstein (damn librul)"
367560,1,Disappointed,Once again the top inside seam rubs the toes raw even through thick socks. I have worn this type of shoes for a couple of years and this has just became an issue this year!
367564,1,Actually pissed off after watching it,"Maybe I take on the mood of the film, but this left me angry. First it runs on way too long during times when it is unnecessary. You have to listen to the churchgoers go on and on and on spewing their hatred - it takes up most of the movie. Yes, the characters were great, the acting was fantastic. I absolutely loved John Goodman. Damn it, though I wish the movie told me something I didn't know. Instead it just worked real hard at converting me into a cultist through exposure. Oh, and how the hell is this a horror movie?"
367566,1,Why so many stars?,"Where to start. Right away with the 5 minutes of preposition in the classroom I knew it was going to be a lazily written movie. I just didn't know how bad. I can look past a lot of things but there are too many instances where the characters actions were far too outlandish, even in an outlandish movie. The setup of getting the teenagers to the church was very B Movie in and of itself. Then you have a teenager with a fully loaded, fully automatic weapon who decides to run through a crowd of armed people as opposed to fire a few shots. I commend the movie for shooting him unexpectedly at least. Then the focal characters get killed easily, and I'm thinking...what's the point? If there was more to the movie, and more plot, more character development I would applaud the unexpected killing of some of the main characters, but this isn't A Game of Thrones and it just left me thinking I wasted $11."
367593,1,Hymn? Try funeral dirge,"As a fan of military sci-fi, I really looked forward to reading this book. Now, I wish I hadn't. The idea for the plot is great, but, oh my stars, the writing was awful! Too much excess dialogue that had nothing to do with character or plot development had me thinking maybe there was some word count quota that just had to be met. The story does not progress well at all, unless you keep a notepad handy to write down all the dates that begin each chapter & try to untangle the plot thread that jumps chronologically forward then backward, then day here, day there, suddenly, a year ahead, a day back, a year or two back, a day head from there....UUGGGHHHH! I kept waiting for the humor the blurbs on the back cover promised, alas, what was meant as humor was forced & by that time I was so lost on the timeline, I really didn't care. Awful, awful waste of time. If you want good military sci-fi try John Scalzi, Ian Douglas, or Joe Haldeman."
367671,1,Bad stitching,"Didn't know that ""Replica"" meant handmade, but either way it was poor quality. From far away it looks correct, but at a reasonable distance you see that the stitches are frayed and it is poor quality :( Very disappointed."
367739,1,Suzuki Delux AS-SC Alto Sax Outfit,Great packaging- Impressive case- Impressive looking-but substandard quality. It simply does not play in tune. Suzkuki needs to works on the intonation of this model. I feel like my $ is used for Fluff instead ofquality control and design.Bottom Line- stay away
367757,1,Terrible sound quality,"I'm no audiophile but even to me these headphones have terrible sound reproduction. Get the other Coby's on Amazon if you want something cheap, surprisingly better sound reproduction -- keep in mind that they'll break relatively easily."
367777,1,Piece of Crap,"Any one who rates this interface higher than a 2 star certainly works for M-Audio. Configuring the system with the ""latest"" drivers from the M-Audio website has proved to be a nightmarish experience.Buy this at your own risk if after seeing all the negative comments you still are not convinced."
367788,1,"Boring, over long, shallow characters, basically crap","after investing the time and effort of the mediocre prequels to this book I found an boringly over long, shallow waste. The story was repetitive and stale. The characters weak shallow, and uninteresting. Feists writing style is a non-descript list of events rather than anything faintly imaginative."
367891,1,A Complete Miss!,"The people at Hippo Records obviously have no concept of what Judy Garland was all about! This new CD release contains the weakest moments from her exciting TV series. The only worthwhile tracks are ""Here's to Us"" and ""Something Cool"" which she recorded but did not air. That latter is actually only a partial cut, she didn't finish the recording. Stick to the DVD's of this series, this CD is a complete miss!"
367905,1,Ridiculous Prices for a movie that is Avalaible.........,Beware.............The puppet master series 1-3 can be bought for $19.99 at fullmoondirect.com.The covers are in spanish because they are Imports but they play in English. Cover is the same so do not pay these ridiculous prices that these creeps are selling this movie for. I bought the Import of Puppet Master 2 and was hIghly satsfied and it is from full moon just an Import. The Movie definately gets 5 stars....................
367976,1,!!,"I hated this book. The plot just didn't bring me in, I realy liked the idea but it just wasn't realy a good book. I have other books by Ann MiCafrey (I highly recomend Dragondrums) and I realy liked most of them, but I found this one to be a let down."
368032,1,BAD QUALITY AND SERVICE,"I bought this modem over a month ago...it doesn't work, a completely dead modem. Once their technical department was convinced that it wasn't due to my error, they agreed to take it back. They RELUCTANTLY agreed to mail me a pre-postage package for return, but it has never arrived. This is a bad product, as well as bad customer service, plain and simple. Trust me, avoid it if you're not wanting to be out a modem, as well as the money."
368074,1,"Unfortunately, this didn't work for me :(","I really wanted this to work! On my hunt for a natural deodorant, I tried the Crystal Stick for approximately a week. Unfortunately, by the afternoon of each day, I had moderate b.o., or worse, if it was really hot out or I had done any strenuous activity at the gym or on a hike. It almost felt like I wasn't wearing anything at all - I think I would have had similar results if I just went completely deodorant free.It's all good, because I finally found my holy grail natural deodorant - Desert Essence Tea Tree Oil Deodorant with Lavender Oil - 2.5 Oz (image may vary). A world of difference."
368102,1,It never worked right!,"I've had this for years and am finally getting rid of it after realizing every time I go to use it the bulb won't stay sealed and it never works. I didn't go to use it too often so I often thought it was the mix I was injecting...but no it's the item. I'm also slightly confused because it's threaded, but on the inside of the staff part where the bulb attaches, not the outside, so it doesn't actually screw into anything on the bulb. The needle does screw on. Save yourself the hassle, get something else."
368117,1,poor quality,"I ordered a few of these for our twin's room and they are very poor quality. They are clearly just photo copies of actual posters, and not very good ones at that. They shouldn't sell them as ""posters"" when they're really not. I recommend paying a little more and getting something better. Seriously, you could do a screen shot on your computer and print it out and it would be about the same (maybe better) than what you get from this company."
368159,1,junk!!,"Bought this at a local hardware store, It sticks to the window fine but the temp is way off. Don't waste your money!!"
368182,1,"Not for 1"" map rails","Just so you know, these hooks fall off of the 1"" map rails, so don't order them for any application other than the 2"" rail."
368212,1,Peter and Paul DVD,"My husband and I were not especially impressed by the performance of Anthony Hopkins. I felt he spoke too fast and did not do our scriptures justice in his portrayal. The film itself was good, as difficult as it would be to include the entire Book of Acts into 2 hrs. It's worth a look see, although it is by far NOT the greatest Biblical movie out there."
368224,1,Fire safe = yes . . . theft safe = no,"I own this safe. I misplaced the keys. It took me 30 seconds with a reciprocating saw to open it. The lock bar is made of stamped steel. It cut like butter. If you are looking for theft security, spend the money to get a better safe"
368226,1,Very unhappy,We ordered this product for our four year old boy's spiderman room. He was excited that he could have glow in the dark. The product did not glow at all. We were very disappointed.
368279,1,NO PLUG!,"I guess I didn't read the reviews when I ordered this product. I recieved the product and there is no plug for the ball. I have not contacted Amazon or the manufacturer yet, but I just wanted to get my review out there before I forgot. Will update with their remedy."
368292,1,Disappointed,An earlier work. Craftmanship lacking and plot seems contrived. Some beautiful discriptions of natural world of Amish - were repeated almost word for word.Her later works - Abram's Daughters and Seasons of Grace are very much improved and they drove me to continue delving backwards to read her earlier work. How much I enjoy Beverly Lewis and she has spurned me on to read other authors and non-fiction books about the Amish. This book and Sanctuary are not examples of her fine writing and ability to capture Amish life and faith.
368327,1,"Worked fine at first, then declined","The printer worked fine at first, printing beautifully. Set up was a breeze. I've had the printer for several months now, however, and I've noticed the print quality slowly decline.I keep regular maintanence on the inkheads, cleaning and aligning them as necessary. I only use Epson ink, I've never refilled or damaged the ink cartridges in any way. I am unsatisfied with this product, and will not purchase another Epson."
368351,1,Stainless Steel Meatgrinder,"I thought stainless steel does not rust. After the first time using the grinder, I put it in the dishwasher.When I took it out, the little wheel with all the holes was completly rusted, also the blade in some spots. Customer Service told me that I can't put the meatgrinder in the dishwasher to clean. Clean it in the sink with a little water. I feel it should've been posted with instructions on the website not to clean in the dishwasher. I never would've bought it. I never heard of anything so ridiculous.Anything cutting meat should be cleaned in as hot of water as you can get it. The thing is useless to me now, because I can't get the rust out of the little holes. I ask customer service to send me an manual where it says not to put in dishwasher. It's been 2 weeks now, nothing. Very disappointed."
368386,1,"5 Inch Hook & Loop Sanding Discs, 8 Holes, 100 Grit, Box of 50.","Everything would be fine but I didn't get what I ordered. Instead of ""Mirka"" sanding discs I got some other company's ( USA1 Abrasives) products which don't have numbers on the back indicating what grit they are and many of discs are glued to each other so when you try to separate them the glue stays on the sanding surface. I don't think I want to buy this products on Amazon any more."
368407,1,Dont buy - 2nd one just crashed,"Do a little research, wish I had, I bought two of these and both have crashed within 60 days of each other, (less than 6 months old). Very dissapointing, and after the crash I started reading up on them, and it appears there a great number of people who have shared my fate.My advice, buy a different brand, pay a bit more perhaps, and dont lose your data."
368416,1,Strange quality,"This ball turned weird and cakey texture. It left pink rubber all over the place, and then after I washed it, it was chalky and discolored. The smell is weird too. My dogs never played with it."
368479,1,Too buggy,"This router is easy to set up and easy to use. The wireless networking is great, especially with a laptop. However, the router is a little two buggy.I've had this router for about a year, and it seems that the device needs to be reset about once a week. The network slows down, particular websites will fail to load, and eventually, the entire wireless network shuts down.When it works, the device is fantastic, but it is too high maintenance."
368492,1,"Great story, *horrible* editing","This book picks up where the second one stopped, but refocuses on characters we haven't seen since the first book. The pasts of both the main characters and several of the races are revealed, and they are not disappointing.The reason for the low rating, and my main complaint about this book is the editing. Frankly, it is so bad I often have to re-read a paragraph several times to figure out what was being said because it lacks all punctuation, every third word is italicized, and random words are capitalized. I feel like I'm reading Facebook. If I didn't enjoying the story quite so much, I would not have been able to finish this book. Large portions of the book are almost unreadable."
368496,1,"poor insulation, stainless exterior and rim only","I was very disappointed in this travel mug. It's listed as being stainless steel, but the stainless is on the exterior only. It's the worst of all worlds in that it's not really insulated very well, so the stainless exterior gets hot or cold, and the stainless rim leaves a metallic taste, yet the inside is plastic. So those wishing to have a stainless steel cup to get away from any suspected problems with plastics leaching phthalates are out of luck."
368507,1,Very disapointed,"Wish I would have saved my money on this one. ""A fighting Marine's Memoir of Vietnam"", misleading to say the least. Secondhand accounts and stories from other personnel. From the reading, the author himself had a limited role in combat.Won't even pass this book on, throwing it away."
368534,1,Great teaser,"The idea and presentation by Iomega was great. However, there's been too many failures to make further purchases worthwhile"
368535,1,Iomega Zip 750MB Drive,"The days of ""750MB"" has gone. Only reason I bought this was to retrieve my archival datas stored in the 750MB cartridges. After that it is useless. It's the time for the memory size of ""GBs"" and ""TBs."""
368569,1,If I could do a zero i would,"This thing is crap, no bubbles. if only i could send it back. but its already been in the tank. SAVE YOUR MONEY. DONT BUY THIS!"
368589,1,BEWARE . . . probably of all LG VCRs,"I have one of these units, which LG swapped for a different model last year. The VCR taping function of this unit (as well as the one before it) began to malfunction. It was a gradual thing, starting with little skips, leading eventually to a tape full of speeded up incomprehensible sound with no tracking. When I had trouble with the first machine, Customer Service told me that some tapes are bad. My conclusion is that LG machines are bad. The tapes are fine when I tape with them on a different VCR."
368599,1,High vibration,"Vibrates at the low speed setting - both wheels wobble excessively - probably due to wheel unbalance. When the speed is increased, the rotational frequency at one speed excites one of the natural lateral modes (frequencies) of the eye shield causing it to vibrate approximately 3/4 inch which introduces a clicking sound. Tried to improve the balance by rotating the collar that secures the wheel - with no success. I will be returning the device within the next few days. I am not yet sure whether I will request a refund or request another grinder. I like the variable feature the Delta grinder offers. I might also select the six in grinder. The smaller wheels might mitigate any unbalance and vibration."
368708,1,the puzzler,"I loved Sit & Solve Cryptograms, but I was very disappointed with S&SC#2. The authors were more interested in finding quotes that didn't contain words like ""the"" than they were in finding interesting and meaningful quotes. Most were just a bunch of jibberish. Also, the font used is very small and close together, making it very difficult to read what you've solved."
368726,1,Do not purchase Kindle version,"I couldn't get past the first 50 pages on the Kindle version. I can't speak for the paper version, but the Kindle version had no punctuation, no quotation marks to know who is speaking, no paragraphs, tons and tons of typos....it's distracting and frankly you spend more time trying to figure out who is saying what than what they're saying."
368762,1,No kick stand,This bike is what my man wanted for christmas in 07 and i got it and would you believe it didn't come with a kick stand; so now i have to take it to a bike shop and have them to put one on it. You would think for the money i paid for this bike it would automatic come with a kick stand but i guess i thought wrong on this one.
368763,1,Another Swiss Watch failed me again,"After my first wenger watch got water in it, I decided to purchase this watch. I am outdside a lot and needed something that I can wear in water with little maintenance. The first thing that went wrong was the dial popped off, the green part that is around the clock was just glued on. I was fine with that as long as I knew the time. Then the unthinkable happened, it got water in it ! Now it no longer works! This product is faulty because the screw will occasionally losen by itself (the one on the side you use to set the time) which allows water to come right in."
368809,1,Antal Attempts: Play Off Rommel's Title To Gain Credibility,"Apparently aimed at the junior military officer or the ""armchair tanker,"" it is another attempt to reduce the difficult and complex world of close combat operations to a series of menu selections. While a text in this format may be useful for the true novice, the author's selection of title and comments in the book lead this reviewer to believe his intention was to imply he has developed a tool for training individuals and units in conducting mounted combat operations.20 years' experience in the Army has shown texts of this type are ineffective in training complex concepts of this sort. To treat such a critical subject so lightly begs the question. Was this written to help train small-unit leaders, or just to make a buck?"
368827,1,Sigh!,"I had to buy this book as a textbook for a course I am taking online through American Military University. For some reason AMU loves to use outdated and boring books, probably because they are written by fellow professors. Don't buy this book unless you have to."
368835,1,Teenager's Guide,"Book is REALLY wordy, not real conducive to a teenager. Was not really what I was hoping for."
368891,1,More Laughs!!,"this Label is so funny it isn't all funny.this is a Great Example of Cloning Human style.Irv Gotti is Suge Knight Up-dated,Ja Rule is 2Pac&Dmx,Ashanti is Janet Jackson before ""Control"" era Janet.the Janet that was only known as MJ's little sister.there Sampling ways follow Bad Boy,Death Row&the other 99 Labels that Shout Out there Name daily&Loudly.this is the Kind of Brain-Less Material that sadly is running the Air-waves,MTV,106&Park,Bet,etc...it's good for a Laugh but How I Wish the Sandman from Showtime at the Apollo would come&Yank Bums like this off the stage? or even find the Gong Show&Gong this junk."
368908,1,Bad but not enoug to be funny.,"Bad acting bad editing, and only the most superficial points of the story were played out. The older BBC version was worthy though low budget."
369006,1,Couldn't get past the first 15 minutes,"Had I known the premise of this movie, I would not have ordered it. On top of that, it is so boring in the beginning."
369026,1,Disappointed with this product,"I bought this for my 3 year old son and was really surprised at the poor quality, especially since its a Peg Perego. Only one of the wheels really spin. Most of the time we have to push to get it going. For the price it falls significantly short. Additionally there is no reverse. We also bought a Fisher Price power wheels truck for my other son (also 3) which was cheaper and was amazed to see it perform much better. Both have the same power, but the Fisher Price one has a reverse function, both rear wheels spin (which they should)!I'm really disappointed with this product."
369033,1,"Large portion devoted to the ""evolution"" of the world","This book would be great if so much of the book wasn't devoted to our supposed ""evolution"". I expected some sprinkling of evolution, but I didn't expect such a huge emphasis! An entire section is devoted to this topic alone. Wish I had known this before I bought it."
369042,1,One star is a stretch,"Sometimes the old saying""ya get what ya pay for"" is exactly that.Not in this case however. If a woodwindinstrument is what you're looking for,look elsewhere.I ended up making an entirely differentinstrument all together. See it had holesdrilled in it so I hung some empty nitrousbulbs from fishing line and made myselfa wind-chime. If you're looking for a cheapwoodwind instrument I don't recomendthis one...peace"

369104,1,Dewalt Nibblers,To whom it may concern. I purchased a set of DeWalt Nibblers DW896 2100 spm 16-gauge for my husband. He used them one time cut very little and they acted as if they were dull. He was cutting 29- gauge barn siding. Bought them through Amazon.com and called them and can not return because it is a couple days past their 30-day return policy. what should i do?
369132,1,Well-done but pretty stupid and even boring,"After watching about four episodes, I skipped to the last few just to see the outcome, but it wasn't even a surprise. Just not my kind of thing, I guess, and I don't understand why it's rated so high by so many people. Three or maybe four stars (questionable), I could understand, but not five."
369187,1,ugh! Smelly and MESSY!!!,"First of all, the ""no drip"" claim is simply not true. Think of really thick acrylic paint (left out for a few hours uncovered, perhaps!) and then think of the absolute WORST heavy scented perfume in the entire world. You know, the kind that gives you a headache as soon as you smell it??That's about how horrible this stuff is. Next huge problem? Try getting the plastic coating off of the containers just so you can use the paints! It's nearly impossible. As you pull the plastic film off, you have to pull and tug, and then when the plastic film starts to come off, the paints are trying to spill out in big clumps. sigh. It's just a disaster from the get go.We will NOT be buying these ever again. But I still can't get over how badly they smell. Why would it smell like horrible ""old lady"" perfume??? weird. I don't recommend this at all."
369195,1,"GREAT Movie, AWFUL DVD...","Well, it seems that a new generation of PAN AND SCAN is now dedicated to destroying movies.In the past we would loose the sides of our favorite films in the interest of creating an artificial ""FULL"" screen, and now that our T.V.'s have changed shape we now get to loose the top and bottom instead.Hooray for progress! It was a bad decision before, and it is a bad decision now. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS RELEASE.I love this movie, and it's a shame that Xenon won't let me see all of it."
369207,1,Poisoned Dreams~ The Unquiet Void,The content of this cd does not relate to music in any manner.What it does have is over 70 minutes of noise.If sound sampling of this cd would have been offered I would not have considered it.
369225,1,Mouthpiece is not reachable to the mouth,I choose this rating because this fulfills only 1/3 of my expectation.Mouthpiece is not reachable to the speakers' mouth (Manufacturer should have the microphone as expandable one).Listener unable to listen what speaker speaks.Good point is headset is working really fine.
369227,1,Don't buy from other sellers.,"I purchased two of this item Shop-Vac 90669 3-gallon filter bags,pack of 3.Sold by a dishonest,crooked seller on Amazon,who sent a cheaper low quality copy #360SW.If you want what you pay for ""Buy from Amazon"" Not sellers on Amazon, This has been the third Bait and Switch of items I have purchased on Amazon in the past five weeks. I will never buy from sellers on Amazon again,If I can not get it from Amazon direct I will not buy it.BEWARE!! of sellers like B & M Housewares in Brooklyn NY."
369272,1,Can't keep it tied,"I was sure I'd love this and use it all the time, but I don't. It's always coming untied and falling off, particularly when it's loaded with a pruner, pocket knife, plier, and phone, which it has plenty of room for. I think the waist string is too narrow and too short (34"" waist). I find it cuts into me because it is so narrow. It would be better with a wider strap and clip closure, like on a dog collar or fanny pack, or with a buckle. It's decently made, so earns stars for that, but for me, it's useless."
369340,1,JE1500: Bargain and Bust,"I've had this model for three days now. I'd been planning on making carrot juice with it: I bought the juicer, I then went to the store and bought enough carrots to supply me with a steady supply of carrot juice for a week. Upon taking the juicer home, I found that the carrots WOULD NOT fit into the juicer. I was simply amazed. The opening is just too small to be practical: I don't want to slice 15 carrots down the middle to get a 12oz glass of carrot juice. Aside from that issue, it seems that it's not that efficient at harvesting the juice - i.e. the pulp is still wet and sometimes it spits chunks of stuff into the decanter. Also (as other reviewers have said) I agree that it tends to clog up before the decanter is full."
369437,1,big and klutzy,"This thing is humongous. Where in the world would you keep it? And klutzy. No directions. Blades fall out of the rack. I returned it, and bought a neat and tidy small one at KMart."
369576,1,Useless,"I hate this thing! It takes forever to connect to your phone - IF it connects at all! Going ""wireless"" was much more frustrating than having the wire attached to your phone. I wish I never bought it!"
369612,1,Far from INVINCIBLE - moderate play results in broken rings,"I purchased this because of the description saying it was INVINCIBLE and ""JW's patented molding process links each ring together with no seams and no glue to produce a strong long lasting toy."" My 50 lb. German Shorthair Pointer is far from a Pit Bull, Doberman, Rottweiler, or any other breed that you would think would rip right through any toy given to them. But yet he had the center black ring ripped off from tugging on it within 2 days after he received it as a ""Christmas gift."" After ripping 1 apart, we started playing tug with the remaining rings. He has successfully ripped through the second ring within another week. The rings have 4 indented ""ribbed"" sections per ring, which give them 4 weak points. This is where each of these rings are breaking up.I will go back to Kong toys, which were long-term toys for my previous Doberman and not mess with the lesser competition."

369730,1,TOO MANY MISLEADING TYPOGRAPHICAL ERRORS,"WHY IS AMAZON RECOMMENDING THE PENGUIN HISTORICAL ATLAS OF ANCIENT ROME?? (APPARENTLY SOLELY TO MAKE MONEY!) IT IS FULL OF SERIOUS TYPOGRAPHICAL ERRORS SUCH AS DATES OF WARS AND BATTLES AS WELL AS FAMOUS GEOGRAPHICAL PLACE NAMES. I HAVE BROUGHT THESE ERRORS TO THE PUBLISHER'S ATTENTION SO MANY TIMES, BUT NO CORRECTED EDITION HAS YET TO APPEAR. I CANNOT RECOMMEND THIS ATLAS TO MY STUDENTS."
369737,1,these suck,these hacky sacks are very cheaply made and are filled with foam instead of beans. while playing with them all the foam comes out of them.
369749,1,A Disappointment,This is a beautifully made bike but is too small for my 18 month old grandson. His legs are too bent for him to be able to move the bike with his feet. Perhaps you should have different heights available.
369762,1,Great Expectations,"That should've been the title since the intresting theory it suggests is enticing. But unfortunately, the author turns this into another cheesy, cliché paperback thriller. One expects long Crichton like essay discussions on religon, but instead we're treated to a horny priest and a female scientist who is, of course, exceptionally beautiful. Sad."
369827,1,Songs are shortened,"This is a cheaply recorded compilation from Mardi Gras Records. The music is almost uniformly excellent. The second song, Do You Know What it Means to Miss New Orleans, is also featured in the ninth song, a medley. My main complaint is the editing. The first song (42 seconds long) is merely the end of a longer song and some of the other songs, although essentially complete, start or end too abruptly as though to hide the fact that some of the songs were recorded live. There are no liner notes."
369890,1,"Right battery, short life","This battery does fit and work in the camera, but it's life is very short. I found that I had to carry two or three extra batteries to get through one day in port during a recent cruise. The batteries are cheap in price, and honestly, you get what you pay for."
369903,1,Another desperate effort to prevent christian converts,"Western literature is littered with emotionally charged denunciation of Muslims in general and Islam and its Prophet in specific. There is no comparable broadbased movement against Chritianity amongst the Muslims. The Muslims are constrained by their belief system not to be disrespectful of Jesus, while the Christians and their Clergy seem to take great pleasure in trying to outdo each other in the amount of venom they can spew out against Muhammed(PBUH) and Islam. The subconciuos hatred of the Muslims seems to be a Thread that links all Christians, the religious as well as the secular. The battle for converts is surely to be won by the Muslims."
369917,1,This phone was a waste of money,"Besides the complete inaccuracy of the battery life meter, the tendency for the antenna to unscrew itself, and fall off and the horribly unintuitive UI for this phone, I have to say that the ring tone and volume contrils on the outside of the phone have to be one of the most poorly planned cell phone features ever.I can't tell you how many calls I have missed or how many times my cell phone has rung at inopportune times when I thought it was on vibrate mode - and how truly frustrating this is.If I could return his phone I would - and the next phone I buy will not be Motorola."
369948,1,Can be dangerous,My dogs love these treat balls but last week my pug got the treat out and swallowed a large piece of it. It was lodged somewhere that made her uncomfortable enough to not want to lay down for 24 hours. She sat and swallowed a lot. I gave her warm chicken broth thinking that would help melt it... and it did but took 24 hours.I will not buy these treats again and I threw away the ball!
369951,1,Not good for large dogs,"I got this in a large size, however my bulldogge had the treats out in five minutes and ate the blue ball they were in. I guess it would work well for something with a little less bite power, but my bullys and mastiffs made easy work of it."
369999,1,For Racing/Road Bikes Only!,"First off, I want to say that this pump is amazing and works great.... If used for a a racing or road bike with very small tires that require a high pressure. My low rating is here to help those who might accidentally buy it for a hybrid or mountain bike.This thing is not capable of filling up tires in hybrid bikes or mountain bikes. Even using a skinnier tire (35mm) this pump failed to pump at all even after several minutes of trying. In fact, I LOST tire pressure. I took it in to a bike shop, thinking the pump was broken, and the employee showed me the error of my ways.So if you are trying to fill up a hybrid or mountain bike, pass on this pump. If you want to fill up a road bike, this pump is amazing."
370116,1,not what I expected,I am a regular yoga nidra practitioner but cannot recommend this as I found the barn yard noises and the curious spoken accent too distracting - the opposite desired effect.
370123,1,Waste of money,"This vacuum worked great at first, but it is now just over one year old and I'm ready to throw it in the trash. Hoover service told me it needs a new motor, gears, height adjuster and brushes (This is the second set of brushes). I reluctantly agreed to have them fix it, and after weeks of waiting they tell me its ready. All they have done is replace the brushes and charge me $30 for labor to install them. I could have done that myself in 5 minutes. It still runs for a few minutes, gets hot, starts to smell and shuts down. This vacuum has only received moderate use for one year. My old fashioned hoover ran fine for ten years, and was still fine when I gave it away. This machine is not anywhere near the same quality. I'm not going to waste another dime on it. Avoid this expensive piece of junk."
370281,1,LAME,This was the worst movie I have ever seen. Please don't waste your time with it. It was stupid and not the least bit funny.
370291,1,not too good,"I have this version and it's almost watchable. SPOILER ALERT::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::SPOILER ALERT::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::Not like I'm really spoiling anything, but I thought this movie really went downhill when Sammo died, and it wasn't too good when he was in it."
370335,1,One more voice in the chorus of bad reviews.,"I first tried the SilverStar line of bulbs on my motorcycle, a KLR650, which has a notoriously dim stock headlight. The SilverStar was definitely an improvement, so when a bulb went out on my 2003 Civic, I decided to replace those with SilverStars as well. Bad mistake. In addition to offering little improvement in visibility over the stock bulb in this application, one of the bulbs burnt out after a little over four months. I thought it was a fluke until the second one went two weeks later. Needless to say I will be pulling the SilverStar out of my bike before it has a chance to leave me stranded. Seriously, save your money."
370355,1,"I would have to agree with everyone, very little to watch!","yep, this dvd is all about puck being himself. I was tired of watching that years ago. anyhow, this dvd just shows stuff that everyone else saw a million times already. If you have bought any of the other behind the scenes videos you already have most of this material. its like they didn;t even include whole seasons on this dvd. Where are the bloopers. whatever. skip it."
370369,1,just awful,This book is a waste of time and riddled with errors. The other reviews must have been written by friends of the author's mother!
370390,1,A fictional story of Rommell.,I guess this and THE DESERT FOX aren't as good as the publicity used in the theatrical release years ago. I have both titles in my collection. I like James Mason so it isn't a total loss.
370429,1,A complete lie,Dont waste your time or your money. This is complete garbage. The title itself is a lie. And all of those special highly paid artist and PR folks cannot rewrite history.
370432,1,"Slowish, White LEDs bright and distracting","OK, to be fair, I've only had it a day. The backup software is so-so, the drive is kinda slow and the LEDs that show functioning of the drive are totally distracting in anything other than a brightly lighted room.Everything about it seems a bit clunky, so I am only going to use it for weekly backups and still put all my images and data on Gold CDRs until I can afford a proper RAID.At least it is quiet...Bought it very cheap as a tool to migrate from XP to Vista, so if it dies in a short period, it will have served its purpose..."
370433,1,Yep,"You must be the SUCK AZZ De JOUR. You sure are defensive of that review, way to break out the chapstick Gomer."
370439,1,Wasted effort.,"I can't understand why Intuit just doesn't port over the current windows versions? THis offering is horrendous, and the new replacement doesn't seem to be much better (per discussions left by beta testers.) Would be nice to see a decent financial product appear for Mac."
370443,1,PowerPC Binary!,"First impression: Holy cow! this looks just like Quicken 2006...Second Impression: Performance S_U_C_K_S on an Intel-based iMac. Sure enough, a quick check reveals that it is still a PowerPC binary. C'mon guys, can't you get with the picture? The product still lags WAY behind the Windows version, but you could at least make one that doesn't have to run in emulation. I could buy VMware Fusion, a copy of Windows XP, and Quicken for Windows if I wanted that -- I'd end up with more functionality and probably better speed as well.If this thing dies when I run budgeting tasks like every release of the 2006 version, I'm going through the roof!"
370465,1,Bad writing!,"What a horrible writer! I got so sick of the one word sentences, and the constant cussing wasn't necessary and didn't add much to the boring characters anyway. I read the whole book, even though I didn't enjoy a single page b/c I wanted to get my money's worth. I would never recommend this book to anyone! What a waste of time and money."
370469,1,Poor Quality,"These refills do not work as well as expected. I have purchased these in the past because the quality was good. They usually last about 3 months under normal use, however, not this time. Under the same conditions of use as in the past this time it provided blue color in the toilet for less than half the previous amount of time. I no longer recommend this item to others."
370470,1,Very informative,"Thought I was getting three, I got one. It is a good idea and I liked the toy but, when I got it I gave it to my chocolate lab and the ball was destroyed and detached from the tail in seconds. Not durable at all. Would like to find one that could hold up because my lab loved it while it lasted."
370495,1,Disappointed,"McKean should stick to what he knows best: violinmaking! I picked the book up because the cover portrait of Leonardo's Ginerva caught my eye, having recently visited Florence and studied the quattrocento. I enjoyed the author's depiction of life on a Medici villa and the discussions about art. The time travel and the love story are both unsatisfying, however, and McKean never connects the dots at several points--there are major holes in plot development (unconnected to the time travel) that I found confusing and frustrating. At the same time, his descriptions are overwritten and overwrought. I got very tired of the leadups to the ""wolf tone."""
370508,1,What a rip-off!,"Our grandson specifically asked for this toy for Christmas, and we ordered it online from Toys 'r Us. It amazes me that the website description wasn't specific enough to make shoppers aware that the toy wouldn't operate without this VERY EXPENSIVE battery pack. Giving us the option of making a fully informed decision (bundling the toy with the battery pack, for example, and noting that one won't work without the other)would have been greatly appreciated, because this grandson was the only one of 5 to receive something he really wanted that was completely useless on Christmas day!We will not purchase any other TYCO toys, because we prefer to deal with ethical companies. Toys 'r Us might consider being more thorough in their descriptions as well - we're not likely to return something a grandchild had his heart set on, but we will be more careful in the future when we shop online at Toys 'r Us."
370522,1,Stop the comparisons,"It is such an injustice to put a snippet of a Rolling Stone ragazine review comparing Keane to Radiohead. How out of touch can Rolling Stone be? Keane is a pleasant-sounding band, one which knows how to craft a lush pop song. They are NOT a rock band. Radiohead is a rock band. If comparisons are so important to people, try last decade's Air Supply if you want to know another band Keane may sound like."
370530,1,It's crippled and it creeks,"A total waste of cinema, time and space. No offense to the disabled, but this flick is truly crippled...and it wreaks with amateur b.s. I'm so happy I only paid 29 cents for it (used). Even at that price it was rip-off. AVOID...look at the credits and avoid everyone that dared put their names to this."
370577,1,Disappointed,...The dreams are based on different views of how time might vary from one place to another and the implications of such variations. Some are within the bounds of my imagination but many seem to me to be quite far fetched and unhelpful in understanding the effects of such variations and it seems unlikely that Einstein's brain would have entertained such views even when he was asleep.
370589,1,Just plain bad.,"I couldn't even get more than a few chapters in. This has to be one of the worst books of any genre I've read - but definitely the worst lesbian erotica ever. I bought it based on the high reviews, but going back through them, it's apparent they are written by the same few people."
370591,1,"Scratchy/rough sheet set, even toddler complains about roughness","I've made the mistake of buying ""100% soft cotton percale"" (210 thread count says OK site) sheets, including two sets from Olive Kids. My son loved the patterns, but despite my washing them with fabric softener and dryer softener sheets, he still complains ""these sheets are scrtachy and hurt me"". Maybe its the printing. They've been washed about 5 times now and I've taken to using a white jersey pillowcase to protect his face. I hope OK upgrades their thread count, but from now on, I'm NEVER buying percale. My son is three and doesn't normally complain about fabric."
370613,1,couldn't get into it,"I remember watching ""The Women of Brewster Place"" in high school, and being drawn into that world. That is what I expected from Gloria Naylor when reading ""Bailey's Cafe."" Bailey's Cafe is about a black couple, who owns a ""magical"" cafe. I was expecting to be swept away. Instead, I find myself bored to tears. Naylor spends pages upon pages describing such mundane details as war, the black experience, and baseball. Where she could use some help is in painting a picture. Each character is given the opportunity to explain who they are, but do we really care? I didn't, because the author spends pages upon pages describing details without taking the story anywhere. Take a risk. Although I didn't agree with everything in ""The Women of Brewster Place,"" that world stayed in my head long after I was finished. ""Bailey's Cafe"" is forgottable. I'm giving her two stars for effort, but I cannot recommend this boring, preachy novel."
370646,1,Don't waste your money,"The seeds did not grow at all. Ceramic containers are nice, but the seeds are worthless. Very disappointed in this product."
370697,1,"Needs more practical, immediately useable points","I was hoping for something with greater specifics on turning negative situations around. The title sounded more action oriented to me than the book actually was. This was a bit more philosophical and psychological. I am looking for practical solutions that I can apply now. The best I have found so far was ""The Secret Handshake"" I would like to find more books like that for real specifics of how you can prepare, plan and change an interaction. The only problem with ""The Secret Handshake"" was that it ended, just when you begin to feel empowered."
370749,1,Dragonology Tracking and Taming Dragons Volume 1: A Deluxe book and model set a joke,"This book is called a deluxe book AND MODEL SET. All we got was the inner book. It was supposed to have an outer book, a dragon model and the inner book inserted inside. When we got it, all we got was the inner paper back book. It was a huge disappointment. The main reason my son wanted it was for the model."
370752,1,only 2 yrs in use and keeps beeping even w/ new battery,"I bought this in 2009 and was using it in the kitchen. Last month, July 2011 this smoke alarm (First Alert SA720CN Photoelectric Smoke Alarm with Light) started beeping every few minutes. It seemed like low batt. So I changed it with a fresh alkaline 9V battery but it still constantly beeped. I put in another new one. Same problem. Dunno if the smoke alarm is still working but it's unusable because of the incessant beeping."
370843,1,A very British Gangster,"I was puzzled when I watched this. At first, I thought that the DvD may have had the wrong program on it. THis was more of a pulp documentary than a movie. IT was NOT more terrifying than SCAR FACE. It was hard to stay awake through it, as well. I even doubt the honesty and I suspect a lot of exaggeration was written into the lines of the subjects portrayed in this ""movie""... sorry, I wasn't happy with this purchase. Maybe it is just me? I don't know. Scotty/Sioux City"
370868,1,The Worst Toy Ever,"My son received this as a birthday present and I should have returned it immediately. This requires an adult to set up the train set and then once it is going, the child can absolutely not touch anything. So, basically, this is a toy that your child can sit and stare at. Do your child's IQ and imagination a favor and just buy the standard Thomas trains."
370923,1,Watch Out,"I Purchased the Magellan RoadMate800 in January 2006. After six months the power pin which is used to connect the recharge adapter to the unit failed. The unit was sent in for repair and returned. Now one year later, once again the power pin connection failed. This time however, the product is no longer under warranty and Magellan wants to charge for the repair. Two friends own the same 800 model and have experienced the same power pin problem. This is an obvious flaw in the manufacture of the product which Magellan refuses to deal with equitably. Recently Megellan formerly a subsidiary of Thames Corporporation was bought out by Shah Capital Partners, LP, Ajay Shah, Managing Director headquartered in Santa Clara, CA. The unit itself works well and is as accurate as any units out there, however, the power pin problem is a major flaw which would not allow you to recharge your batteries."
370950,1,Completely Under-Complex,"Richard Lynn and Tatu Vanhanen have presented evidence that differences in national IQ account for the substantial variation in national per capita income and growth. However, these findings simply reflect inappropriate use and interpretations of statistical instruments. Secondly, the models presented by Lynn and Vanhanen are under-complex and inadequately specified...."
370961,1,Computer-Jacked,"McAfee Security Suite has computer-jacked my computer! I totally hate this product and I've used McAfee for years. Terrible, terrible. When it is scanning or checking my computer, it slows everything else down to a snail's pace. Opening other websites or writing email is extremely frustrating when McAfee is doing its thing. Quite frequently, it knocks me off the internet. It's like someone else has taken control of my computer. I am going to get this nightmare off of my computer. I want my money back!"
370962,1,a poor choice for internet security,"I used to be a big fan of McAfee, but this latest version is a complete dud. It was very user unfriendly. It was impossible to figure out where and how to change settings. It identified another user identity on Windows as another computer on the network that didn't have McAfee installed. I couldn't access documents on the office website and couldn't figure out how to change the settings. The customer support is useless."
370993,1,Over-Hyped No Substance,Put simply Farrell's system is a blueprint for trading losses and failure.I've been day trading since the inception of electonic day trading.This book is promulgating a trading method that is nothing more than electronic snake oil.Don't be suckered.
371010,1,Not a bad thesis but the tirade against Islam turned me off,"The book starts out well but he lost me with the chapter called ""The Problem with Islam."" Kind of reminded me of another religion labeled a problem several decades ago. It was incredibly imperious and I do not believe the author has sufficient experience with Islamic culture to make the sweeping generalizations he does."
371066,1,The Corporation,"Interesting, however, it has an agenda that spoils what could have been much more revealing, if they had taken the time to show the other side of each story. No doubt there is a need for this kind of information, which if it could bring both points of view to our attention we would all be better off. Disappointing, shallow."
371081,1,completely unconvincing,wow...this is just so bad that I feel sorry for everyone involved. Inappropriate acting and embarrasing special effects. jeez...
371085,1,Waste of Time,"Thinking of watching this movie, dont think long, i would like the 1hr and 30 minutes of my life back on this one. First off the trailer is the best part of the whole movie, it shows all the scary stuff, it is dragged out alot of jib jab about what is coming to get her but the show never really gets you there. I was looking forward to this but it was a bust, save your money or rental on something better."
371164,1,BAD QUALITY,"Received this and plugged to a monitor running at 1280x1024. There is strange double ghosting to the right of larger black letters in white background, it is simply unacceptable. The cable is as thin as mouse' tail, and appears to be as cheap as it gets.Avoid it if you are looking for anything of decent quality, spend more money on better cable, and you will be happy. This one was returned 5 minutes later."
371173,1,What is SP? Super [Weak]?,ok here is the bottom line. The only 2 good changes is the rechargeble battery and the built-in light. The buttons on the dang thing feels really weird. It costs so much for so little changes. Dont spend money on this unless you hav so much money u dont care. Trust me this isnt the way 2 go.
371233,1,Worked fine until it died an early death,"Basically the charger did what it was supposed to do until it died after 4 months. I can't say that I am terribly suprised given the price and the fact that it seems to run hot but it would have been nice to get at least a year out of it. In fairness, the second one I purchased at the same time for my wife still seems to be working fine."
371294,1,Melnor 3060 - newest model is an idiot,"I did my homework.I read the latest inst. manual on the Melnor website (NOT the one shown by Amazon) and decided that the six independently definable cycles would do what I needed - I have plants in self-watering pots that drain their reservoirs in about 2hrs. during full sun.Well, shame on me - they've changed the model 3060 YET AGAIN and turned it into an IDIOT. They have not posted the current manual on their website.It will water six times a day, but only 4hrs. apart. It doesn't know what day it is. The six independent cycles are GONE.AMAZON, YOU GET THIS ONE BACK - NOT AS ADVERTISED!!!!"
371383,1,Save you money,All I can say is save your money. This game is horrible. If you're looking for a casino game I'd go with Casino Empire much more realistic and much better game play
371440,1,The House Next Door,"This novel tricked us. We expected an adult mystery novel, but instead it was much more like what a teen would enjoy. Very predictable and because of that, boring and a waste of time."
371534,1,misleading reviews...,I really dont understand how this straightener got so many high reviews at all. I have shoulder length hair thats frizzy if left to air dry...but I can usually straighten my hair just fine with other straighters in about 20 minutes. This straightener takes over 30 min and it does Not work well on dry hair. It doesn't leave hair smooth and my hair would be really poofy if i didnt go over it like 4 times. It literally made me sweat when I used it because of all the times i had to go over my hair! That and all the steam. I used it on the high setting too and although it would get my hair mostly dry ...it would just be dry and frizzy. The very back would still stay damp. Its fine for the money and if your hair is naturally straight but I returned this straightener for the remington t studio tourmaline flat iron which works well.
371590,1,Avoid- you apparently can't return it,"My dyson reconditioned vacuum overheated the first time I used it. Not an auspicious beginning for a $399 reconditioned vacuum; I decided I'd better send it back while I could. Amazon would not answer any emails I sent to follow their return procedures; eventually I left for a 2 week vacation. Now I'm back and my 30 days are up and I still have not gotten a response. Even worse, I saw an ad for what looked exactly like this machine (even purple) under a different brand name for $134.99 on sale at Kmart. P.S. it feels flimsy."
371664,1,doesn't last,"This was my second case to fail. It is otherwise a perfect case. It fits my iphone4 with a slim bumper and looks fine. But the belt clip is hot glued into a little leather slot on the side. The first lasted a year and I bought a new one. It has now failed too, again after one year. The Splash Mohawk II looks about the same so I'll try that one. I know nothing lasts forever, but is two years really too much to ask of a product?"
371717,1,Disappointing,"The book was disappointing considering the authors credentials. If you want to know details about why the Titanic sank, airline crashes, Three Mile island etc the book is fine. It dwells excessively on non-business failures. I would say most of those arent that relevant to business as usually business mistakes are made over a period of months/years and not some meltdown or imminent crash scenario as faced by airline pilots. The author tries to extrapolate these to business and falls flatThere is nothing insighful or meaningful and some things like Enron analysis is a re-hash of what we all know"
371743,1,Gucci,"When I bought the same product at the store, the perfume was much better. Not sure if it is authentic"
371941,1,"WARNING, WARNING DO NOT BUY","You might wonder why good music such as ambulance is something i'd warn against? Well its not their music, they have sublime melodies and good tunes. However, some of us with more advanced players:CANNOT PLAY THIS CD DUE TO OUT OF DATE CD PROTECTIONCmon guys, if we cant play your cd, theres no way you're gonna turn a profit or get PR. I hope this is solved in a later release, i hate losing bands to bad marketing ploys."
371950,1,Disappointed me,"Like reviewer Michael White before me, I found little insight into modern terrorism here and, although Conrad's writing style is always enjoyable, I found the story unsatisfying. The ""terrorists"" in this story are somewhat humorously portrayed as vain, self-absorbed toothless tigers and it's more a story about one man's personal crisis. I didn't much care for the ending and although I read somewhere about this novel having an amazingly suspenseful climax, I must have missed it because I found it predictable and even slightly boring. I've loved the other Conrads I've read, but cannot really recommend this one."
371988,1,May as well be made of playdough,Bit was stripped on the first turn of the first time using it on a bolt being torqued to only 8 ft lbs. Horrible quality.
371995,1,Not worth a cent,"I purchased 6 of these and they all fell apart about 2 months into the season. The plastic bags just began to split and tear, leaving gaping holes where the water washed out the potting soil, thus no way to water, and NO tomatoes. They ended up in complete tatters. I am considering hanging them out on my front lawn along our busy street to let all potential customers view the truth about the quality of this product. Needless to say, I am very disappointed. I wanted to rate it Zero stars but it wouldn't let me..."
372104,1,Off Packaging,"I received the package in good timing however, it came in a regular zip lock plastic bag and the label is a generic label that only ""Atomize"" and a symbol of a cow surrounded by the words, ""Rail Way Farm & Garden"". The packaging isn't nearly as professional looking as the advertised one. I wish I could attach a picture of it. I am actually afraid to use it...as a matter of fact, I am going to send it back. What I received is not what I purchased. Sincerely."
372146,1,Awful,"This is an amateurish, poorly produced documentary about Shakespeare. Maybe it was a class project for a video class."
372189,1,Stress rating of 5 stars,"There were no directions in the box, the pieces would not fit properly and the action figure was broken. The plane was also a much different design (painted) than the one pictured on the box."
372205,1,Disappointment from a Previously Great Band,"I have to admit, I was really looking forward to Wheat's return after their last album Per Second Per Second Per Second... Every Second. That CD was fresh, interesting, and implied either a next step into Indie greatness or maybe a fizzle into nothingness. Instead, they've gone for something ambitiously different and badly missed. None of the songs are compelling; many are unlistenable. The music is atonal and nihilistic, the melodies are either bland or bad. This will be last Wheat CD."
372289,1,Fine Print,When receiving this item it was fuzzy dice however it was not in the same color that was advertised. Was not as impressed as I thought I would be.
372294,1,Unraveled,Looks great but edge stitching unraveled the first time it was washed. Returned them to Amazon.
372313,1,A waste of money,"I am amazed that the other reviewers are so enthusiastic about this book. Its contents are just a rehash of well-known (at least to some of us) principles, and do not provide any useful, real-world guidelines for actually implementing architectures. It's just too superficial, and spends far too much print on generalities.One thing that all the other reviewers also failed to mention is that more than one third of this book is devoted primarily to a ""tutorial"" for the software product marketed by the author's employer, and is, therefore, totally worthless to the general reader. A very disappointing book. Wiley usually does better than this."
372321,1,Not recommended for couple play,"This product is probably pretty good for the anal beginner. The beads are small and easy to pop right in... but the tiny bit of ""string"" at the end of the beads makes it very hard to keep a hold of them if you plan on having sex with using them or having someone else use them on you. The beads slide in so easily that the rest (only about an inch and a quarter) can easily follow and give real reason to be scared. I don't recommend these even though they are priced to sell."
372353,1,appalling cheesy cliched drivel,"The title of this review sums it up. Every line deleivered, every plot idea, every character was SO stereotyped I couldnt believe it. This film is cardboard cutouts on an incerdibly cheap backdrop. The 'monsters' are laughable, simple being blown-up normal animals. I would go on but the longer 1 star review captured it all. terbbile, terrible film."
372356,1,"Good animated movie, but not much for 3D...","Good movie but not as great as 1st one...1st movie certainly is impressive but as they say, its hard to have a great sequel..In this case thats exactly what happened...If you are looking for as great 3d effects as first one, you will be disappointed, good humor having The Rock Dwayne Johnson involved, but not worth the sale overall.."
372379,1,Pack of Lies,"If I could rate this book a zero, I would. It's even worse than the other ""tell all biography"", 'Hammer of The Gods'. These are Richard Coles egomaniacal, crack induced fantasies of what he wishes life with Led Zeppelin was. 90% of the book is pure fantasy. Want proof? The boys in the band released statements renouncing the book and Cole himself. The fact is this book is more an attempt by Richard Cole to boost his own ego than a factual account. If you like fairy-tales, get it. Otherwise, well, I guess we're still waiting for an accurate and well writen biography. Someone,anyone? Wanna help us out?"
372419,1,PHYTOSOLAIRE,"This product didn't do a thing for me. My skin is very fair and I had high hopes for this treatment. I followed instructions carefully, but no results...I still got burned and no tan."
372434,1,this movie sux!,"Absolutely no horror content involved! Another work of some horn dog; making women sex slaves. Terrible movie!! All the women walk around half dressed and talk in baby talk. No respect for women. The scariest part about this movie, is that there are still people that think this way and don't respect women as their equals."
372456,1,Poor qulaity plastic that breaks all too easy,"I love the sound of this Samsung headset, works great for phone calls too.Everything is great but the plastic that is between each speaker. It breaks so easy , I glued it with gorilla super glue, it holds but breaks in in a different place.The plastic is thin hollow to allow the wire to get through to the other side.It has broken three times and is usless. Too bad, I like Samsung products, hope this helps you make a better purchase."
372460,1,Waste of money,"I got one from HSN for $9.97. It is cheap. But even at that price, I don't think it is worth to buy. Compare to my i470D, it is much slower and quality is poor too. For stand quality, it takes about 2 and half minutes. For high quality, it takes around 7 minutes. For best quality, it takes around 15 minutes. There was little difference between high quality and best quality. Even when printed in best quality, the picture printed by this printer is still not as good as my i470D. It is darker than i470D. It will take about 3 minutes when using my i470D to print high quality picture.If I can suggest, don't waste your money on this junk. I recommend Cannon because I used i470D and found the quality is very good. So go for Canon brand. My colleage tried HP. She said HP is good too.Hers is HP Photosmart 7660. I also got an HP Photosmart 7260. I haven't tried it yet, but I'm sure it is good and much better than the Lexmark p707."
372469,1,Not too helpful for Windows users,"I bought this book on the recommendation of a Mac guru to help with learning to use a recently purchased iBook. I am a longtime and skilled PC user.I can see where this book would be helpful to someone who was familiar with previous Mac OSes, but it did not spell things clearly enough for this poor Windows user. The book even recommends buying ""Switching to the Mac: The Missing Manual"" instead of this book for Windows users.The portions of the book that I have managed to wade through have been somewhat confusing due to typos, unclear labeling, and mislabeling, i.e. referring to a $ as a pound sign.I generally consider O'Reilly books an excellent source to learn from, but this book was a disappointment."
372504,1,Bad quality. No warranty,"I bought the acetate cards from the official Modiano site, and after a month of use, all the cards started discolorating. The ink started coming off, and now these ""premium"" cards look worse than a used bicycle deck. I took very good care of my cards, so I thought it was a manufacturing defect. I emailed Modiano directly, and they said:""I'm sorry unfortunatly Modiano does not offer a warranty to there cards. If you wish to purchase replace cards you can send $1 for each card along with a self addressed stamp envelope to address on your replacement card form.""I'm not sending them $104 to replace both decks. Such a shame, because they seemed like good cards otherwise.I'd recommend you stay away from them just because of the bad customer service and the quality of their products.Now time to look for a better set to replace these decks."
372520,1,No MP3's????,"Considering the lack of Top live, save for precious few bonus tracks, how could this NOT BE OFFERED in mp3s?shame on you BILL HAM!!!!!"
372618,1,You can have mine!!!,"We'v had this Hoover for about 2 years and Im ready to junk it. After the first 3 or 4 cleanings, I thought the unit worked rather well, but then the problems started. First the scrubber wheels stoped spining. The brush drive uses plain steel gear pins that rusted due to the fact they are directly exposed to the fluids entering the machine! After cleaning and relubing these parts, it was working again. Then the leaking started. I replaced the rubber O-ring seals and it still leaked. I called Hoover and they mailed me a new water bucket and bucket base that had been slightly redesigned, It only driped slightly at first and now with about 4 uses, it litteraly has water running out of it!!!! This is without a dout, the worst possible design for fluid transmission in and out of a machine. Other than that, it cleans great!"
372626,1,Bought by mistake,"Buy this Cable Management System by mistake but as I live outside the United States is very expensive to return the product. honestly have no use for me, I use it as a very expensive paperweight"
372636,1,Pictures are Deceiving,"I purchase this light fixture for my little girls nursery thinking that it would give it a charming feel. After my husband installed it, he said ""you should have thought about spending a little more than $50 to get something that didn't look so cheap. This fixture isn't even straight"". When I told him the actual cost, he was quite upset and felt we got ripped off.Because I don't have the energy to deal with it, we're going to leave it in place. It does provide adequate light in the room, which was a concern of mine with a smaller chandelier."
372650,1,Not as advertised !!,I ordered these locks and received silver Master Locks which did not look like the ones advertised. I had ordered specifically for the brighter colors to help spot our luggage on the carousel.
372795,1,They don't sound like the Platters of my day.,They do not sound the same as I remember from my days as a teenager. I noticed this when I played the samplebut was unable to cancel the order soon enough.
372913,1,Silas Marner review,"If you do not have to read this book, don't. It is very difficult to understand and catch on to, especially because of the slow plot build-up and the overall slowness of the book. It has a nice meaning to it but hard to understand because of the way the author words things."
372965,1,A writing lesson needed,"Whether the you agree or disagree with the author's conclusions and the robustness and reliability of the research that informs them is a personal choice. What struck me most about the book is how badly written it is - something I'm afraid it shares in common with a great number of celebrity biographies puiblished today.Natalie Wood deserves better than an author who does not know the difference between the words ""determinism"" and ""determination"" or how to use them correctly, to give just one example. The author also seems unable to construct sentences in a logical sequence. Very often it's unclear who the author is quoting.As I say, the content may or may not be accurate - the style, I'm afraid, is poor."
372966,1,"Therapeutic for the author, but too fluffy for the reader","The author wrote this booklet and drew the illustrations to help her work through her depression. I'm glad it helped her, but I found it to be an extremely thin and repetitious ""don't give up."" That's an important message for people suffering through depression, but I found no insights worth holding on to."
373009,1,OK but....,The display is way to dim to see in day light.You have to be up close to see it.the radio has poor quality sound
373021,1,A huge disappointment,"I expected MUCH more from Sony... especially sound quality. I bought a clock radio 40 years ago that puts this thing to shame. The good news... it works. The bad news... the controls are misplaced and poorly marked. There is no digital tuning. There are no presets. It sounds AWFUL ! It ""features"" dual alarms, which I don't need. This thing was designed by a jokester."
373148,1,Water-rator!,"I thought this was nothing but a piece of junk! I paid a nintey bucks for one of these and it was worse than my 14 dollar blender. You pretty much have to make a gallon at a time to even get it to be slushy ice mixture but by the time you add enough ice, your drinks taste like a bad watered down mexican restauarant 2 for 1 margaritas. The instuctions are not very precise, says wait 6 to 8 min but it actually took the machine about 15 minutes. Oh and after about an hour it all melts down. After wasting about 40 bucks worth of tequila on this trying diff techniques I took mine back to Walmart. The customer service rep also told me it wasnt the first one that was returned for the same reason. SAVE YOUR MONEY! A Cheap blender works better than this!"
373155,1,Not What I Expected,"This book is tailored for older children and even then it's not well written for them. The details are too numerous to keep the young child's attention. There are not enough picture illustrations and the situations described herein are not general enough to fit society as a whole. There is too much of a focus on the ""wrong"" things to do in school verses the right things. Many of the suggestions and story's of how children did things the wrong way can backfire on parents and actually give children ideas of the wrong things to try. Much of the book could not be used for our home and school life situations. Few children will stay captivated by this book. My eldest child who is gifted thought it was boring and many of the issues she couldn't even relate to. My youngest was in over his head and I had to skip reading the long drawn out situations and paraphrase things to keep his attention."
373172,1,men's studies as travelogue,"This book could have been called ""In Search of Male America."" The writer is a free-lance author who hunts around the country to see what men are doing and why. It has diverse chapters, essays on cosmetic surgery, gun lovers, leathermen, etc. Unfortunately, it's descriptive, rather than analytical, and just feels like pages upon pages of ""yak, yak, yak."" The author tries to be funny often and usually fails. I am glad that even journalists are starting to show an interest in men's studies. However, this texts leaves much to be desired. Highly unrecommended."
373228,1,i wasted money on this.,"I bought the wrong part!!!These are the connections that come OUT of the the truck(like factoryside), If your installing a radio, you want the wires that go INTO the truck(female side). This product is the male side.There is nothing wrong with this product specifically. But I think the description could use a little update."
373242,1,What is this?,"I am looking for some additional arrows for my grandson. I've had to look all over this item to find how many arrows are included, I assume 3. Nowhere does it just state 3. How long are they? 22"", 24"", 26"", 32""? These are very very important questions! Yes? No? So, then I suppose at least one customer would address these issues or fill in the gaps. Nope! Well, there you have it!"
373270,1,Incorrect programming,The approach to string pointers in this book is wrong. I have a working understanding of C and after reading the first 102 pages of this book I can tell you not to get this. It will set you back instead of helping you write solutions.I wonder how many of the examples in this book were actually compiled to see if they work. I know the one on page 102 definitely was not. This will not help you if you are trying to learn.
373307,1,Too heavy,"As we have two floors, I bought this for upstairs and to use on the stairs. I too heavy to easily maneuver the stairs and doesn't get into the corners. We have pets so lots of hair flying around. I wanted something that I could use like an electric broom, that would be fun to take out every other day. This is not it.It's just too heavy and bulky. I might as well use our big vacuum. But for the price, I guess it's worth it to use once in a while."
373326,1,Ok reference book -- or for beginner,"Amo's Transact-SQL can certainly be faulted for the amount of time that it spends trying to describe how to perform somewhat mundane tasks in Enterprise manager and other SQL 7 tools -- great if you have never used SQL Server before, but not particularly useful for programmer or DBA turned programmer trying to learn Transact-SQL. The books redeeming strength, however, comes from the clarity with which the author is able to deal with more advanced concepts such as cursors. His explanation makes the concept very accessible to a beginner. The books excellent index allows it to serve well as a reference book. All things considered, this is not the book to buy if a large portion of you work is with a database; but for a developer or DBA needing to write a little Transact-SQL and not wanting to spend three-weeks reading a book like Vieira's SQL Server Programming it could serve as a good intro book and/or quick reference."
373360,1,low battery life with radio,"I purchased this battery to go with my new V28 Milwaukee worksite radio. I was expecting this battery to power my radio (only) for at least 20 hrs before needing to be recharged. WRONG !!!! After 8 hours, the battery is dead. Very disappointed ...."
373452,1,"Of all the bookshelves, in all the world, why did you have to end up on mine...","To think, some tree had to die to whisper this wonderful piece of crap into existence! This book doesn't explain anything! I picked this little thing up as a precursor to a more advanced text. This is usually my style. A nice little hors d'oeuvre, something simple, something easy with which to familiarize myself with the topic at hand. The book was cheap, and it was a Schaum's, right? What could be easier? Well, it wasn't easy, it was just useless. Don't spend your hard earned money on this little tidbit of ordure. Not even $.69."
373474,1,Drill bits slip when drilling miniatures,"I used this for pinning miniatures. It works great for about the first little bit, but then starts slipping consistently. I didn't realize that this uses a plastic collet - it wasn't evident from the picture. Found a better one made by the same company (Excel) for $5 at a local hobby shop after I ordered this one, but before it arrived. I suspect that this one was highly overpriced.Also unlike most pin vises, this one does not have a swivel head. I knew that going in, but I figured I would give it a try. Turns out that the swivel head really is necessary."
373484,1,Horrible Packaging!!,"So i will start out with i do LOVE the fox and the hound and it is one of my favorite disney movies so i was real excited when i got home, but then i open it and they put the two dvd's in the same slot and the blu ray in a seperate slot, ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? i wouldn't have payed the extra money to get the blu ray if i knew that they would end up having the dvds in the same slot, my dvd has a high risk of getting scratched now and there is nothing i can do too prevent it since there isn't even a sop for a swivel disk. HORRIBLE PACKAGING."
373486,1,Do not recommend if your using Visual C++.net Standard,"I thought the the first chapter on the overview of the .NET frame work was very good. When I got to the 2nd chapter on managed C++ basics, the book refered to using a command prompt window provided by Visual Studio.NET for compiling programs. I could not find any reference in how to display that window using the Visual C++.net Standard edition.So if you dont want to shell out the money for Visual Studio.NET, then do not buy this book."
373504,1,never received,I never received items because the order was cancelled three times. Once through Amazon amazon and twice through Summerset gliders.
373543,1,$23 for one episode?! Not a ghost of a chance,"I would have bought the complete season 1 at, say, $30 for several people on my Christmas list. Clearly most fans of the show are going to wait for Biography's execs to realize how ridiculous and deluded they're being, releasing single episodes for $23. Also, FYI, Biography, even if you priced them at $5 each, no one wants a bunch of single-episode DVDs taking up space. Just release a reasonably priced, compact season package already to bring back your sales from the dead."
373580,1,Not what I ordered,"This is not Civilization Call to Power. This is CTP II. I wanted CTP (original) because is allowed you to operate in space and build flying storm troopers. This version has done away with those types of advances. I was very disappointed because I had search long and hard for a vender that was selling the original CTP. This vendor claimed to, and the picture shows the original, but the original is not what I received!!!"
373637,1,Ugh,Obvious lip syncing. She sweated so much it was disgusting. Watched it once and threw it out. I wouldn't even give it away to someone.
373645,1,i like this song because they are telling the truth about it,i like this song because they are telling the truth about relationship and what we do in life and this is the number one song on the chart beside all of they other song on this album but i really do like they other song from this album which that the name of the song is girl from there second album and they follow up album is love always and they new cd x these brother they have skills and a wonderful voice and they know how to remake a oldest song and make it sound like it brand new song and these are my boy because i fell inlove with them every since they was with the group jodeci and i can't hardly wait until jodeci reunion album come out because jodeci three album was the bomb and now they third cd is off the hook alone with it's real and love always and i want to know what next from these brother.
373736,1,Money Pit,"I'll know to completely disregard Golden Globe nominations from here on out. What was I thinking? Depp is only good when playing a freak of some sort and all I can do when Jolie is on the screen is stare at her mutant lips which take up 55% of the view.Terrible script and direction and all the rest. No imagination wasted on this creation. ""Let's hire big draws, excrete some stupid screenplay, and make a lot of dough off the Sheeple""."
373820,1,What a complete waste of time,"Terrible book -- a waste of time and money -- no start or finsh --no character development and certainly no depthWhat did I miss here? I cannot believe that anyone thinks that this is worth readingAnd ... It didn't have any if the ""scary"" that so many people ascribed to itBad bad bad"
373833,1,Dexter has jumped the shark,"As a die-hard Dexter fan, I was somewhat disappointed in Season 5...but MAJORLY disappointed in Season 6. Having Debra appointed as lieutenant was ridiculous and her inappropriate affections toward Dexter are just plain icky. Dexter seems to be playing pretty loose with the code these days too. And what about Harrison? Dexter is too smart to believe that his lifestyle won't rub off on that kid. Meanwhile Dexter doesn't even try to make Debra watch her mouth around him anymore. Sorry to say that I'm probably done with Dexter unless Season 7 has some more believable scripts."
373871,1,Do not buy this sheet.,"I wouldn't let my dog sleep on these sheets. They are of the worst quality imaginable. We took ours back and purchased plain ole porta crib sheets and they fit PERFECTLY. I recommend the Koala Baby name brand porta rib sheet. They are available at BRU and have elastic all the way around, making for a snug fit. And the quality is 1000 times improved over the PNP sheets."
373925,1,Too small for an adult,"The description says this bike is ""for riders under 5'10""/190 Lbs"". I'm 5'5""/165 Lbs and it is too small (and too slow) for me. Also, don't fall for the ""three speeds"": it's slow and the first two speeds are of no practical use."
374059,1,Curve Swivel Holster,"This was a replacement for the holster I ordered directly from RIM and lost. This holster does not have the built-in channel to protect the trackball, and its ability to put the Blackberry in standby mode isn't as pronounced.The magnet holding the flap closed does not work very well, and I have already had the phone drop and end up with a chip on it.The RIM version is much better, and this version is now mothballed in favor of a rubberized skin."
374093,1,Neat Idea...if Only There was Good Reception,"I love the idea the Apple guys came up with. I just wish I could find a station that transmits a clear signal upon syncing my iPod. I live in South Florida, which is for the most part suburban/metropolitan...no rural dead zones. I find myself changing stations TOO often when driving, which could be a very dangerous task to undertake. If you can afford the investment, given your car's stereo system is interchangeable, purchase a moderate Pioneer CD player that has the iPod jack compatability (also made by Pioneer). Now, this combination sounds like heaven!"
374144,1,Misleading Editorial review+No 24hrs timer/ 10cup as stated!,"I bought 6 of these coffeemaker and listed to sell on an autionsite boasting this advertise high point on the 24hrs timer as per the Editorial review with a NAIVE assumption that Amazon.com is reliable/reputable seller! I got nothing but returns for refund, bad feedback for telling lies on my listing! I wrote to Amazon.com asking to compensate for my lost to refund to buyers infull plus paying S&H; for the items to return back to me but they reply with just an apology, when I asked them if I can return these back, they coldly told me it's over 30 days now and nothing can be done! I'm very disappointed with their customer service's attitudes! I wrote 1 review similar to this last week and they did not list it, I hope this one will go thru unless they want me go send this somewhere else!!! I'll not trust what they said in their listing anymore, and please be advise by this review that their UNTRUE facts list just increase by 1 now!"
374169,1,Two stars tops,"Not quite a 1 star item, but no more than two. I bought this as an only option after the 2005 hurricanes and used it occasionally to keep the trees in my yard trimmed and cutting up the branches I trim. This is a good short-term, temporary saw if that's what you need. Not too many hours after use, mine wouldn't stay running after it was warm. Checked the air filter and replaced the plug, and still nothing. Finally last year, after very light yearly use, it would no longer start. I even tried replacing all of the fuel hoses and filter with a kit I bought, but none of that worked. The old saying is true: Buy cheap, buy twice."
374193,1,"Geology, yes. Story , no","If you're interested in geology, this is the book for you. It's probably far more entertaining than most geology texts. However, if you expect a story of the San Francisco earthquake of 1906, be prepared to wade through more than half of this tome to get less than 100 pages of the story marginally written. Mr. Winchester seems to have a penchant for taking jabs at everything he has a personal bias toward and not staying on the subject. Adding to the tiresome writing is the plethora of footnotes. From these alone a book could be written. Some are actually more interesting than the text. But they tend to disrupt any semblance of flow. A good editor would have been a wise investment. This is NOT a book one would want to read if they had the slightest interest in this historic event. Makes a good paper weight."
374210,1,For masochists,"Black and white film with action as vivid as a dead cow. Wth people care and create such tedious things?If you want to watch it, you need either huge amount of coffee or an alarm clock, which wakes you up now and then.Once again a movie overloaded with quasi intelligent dialogues, very slow takes and amatourish actors. However, it doesn't hurt to watch actors playing two leading parts. At least they did their best."
374236,1,Melted in the sun,"My dog enjoyed this frisbee for a couple hours, but we left it outside for an afternoon and it completely warped and was unusable as a frisbee. Still made for a decent chew toy I guess..."
374259,1,As far as I could go,"I got as far as watching the third episode and decided I had had enough of a poorly written re-telling of an old tale, old themes and characters that did not fit the roles. Maybe I missed the point of some of the previous episodes this isn't a romantic re-telling, it isn't believable, it seems to be a sci-fi but it just didn't make it. The fantasy stuff was silly, the romantic scenes were silly. The director had to be unhappy with the lead actor, costuming was mis-matched, it seemed like the director couldn't decide if the characters should look like cave dwellers or wear futuristic fantasy costumes. Dialogue was ""campy"" and trite. Not a classic flick for sure not even a good made-for-tv series. I guess I'm too old school for any remaking of classic tales other than the way they have already be done, Regrave and Harris, Burton etc."
374268,1,Problems for tender feet,"When the slippers arrived I had socks on. I tried the slippers and they fit fine and felt great. then I started walking around and could feel somthing under my heel. It was the label that is made of rough cloth and heavily stitched in both slippers. The stiching was so heavy and deep that removing the labels took a sharp razor knife and ten minutes per slipper. OK now no lump under my heel. Then later the socks come off and the not so soft leather that hems the entire opening starts rubing my ankles.I did not expect to need socks while wearing slippers. The design is nice, the trim material down right dumbin my opinion. slippers should be soft where ever they contact your skin."
374379,1,Truly Disappointed,"The authors propensity for villains with schizophrenia or MPDand carrying multiple story lines in a single book is just getting old.The story jumps around so much that it becomes quite hard to follow.The plot is murky and although I don't mind foreshadowing I don't liketo be beaten to death with it (telling us someone's going to die once isthrilling, more than that and it loses its impact and almost becomesinsulting ""ok, I GET it they're going to die, get on with the story.""). Icame across Ghoul a few years ago in a used book shop and wasenthralled now I'm just disappointed and doubt I'll read or buy furtherbooks from this author and that saddens me."
374380,1,Better than Usual for Grammys but still weak.,"It is commom knowledge that the Grammys blow. They are usually nominated based on how much a song is being played on mtv/vh1. Groups like the Pussycat Dolls, Pink, and Carrie Underwood are hardly inovative, talented, or origial. It is music made for tweens and teens and involves poor writng lyrically and instrumently (not that any of those artist have talent to play instruments). Then theres the painfully repeted song by James Blunt ouch. I have to believe Paul McCartney was nominated out of past deedshe hasn't done anything good in over 20 years. This album does have a few bright spots on it; Mary J, Timberlake (yeah really), Gnarles Barkley, Death Cab ,and a solid Chili Pepper tune. On an album containg 23 songs four good one and a few ok ones don't make up for 15 bad ones. If your a teenager or a fan of mindless generic music this is your album"
374387,1,Battery Battery Battery,It keeps on saying it might blow up or gasses will come out if you dont charge it perfectly.We got so scared that we wanted to return it
374457,1,Defective switches,"The dispenser switch of this electric kettle is often defective. I have one of this and every time I press the on/off switch to dispense water, the temperature control switch jumps to a lower temperature setting, and I have to reset it, which result in the kettle going into re-boil again. Now the on/off switch doesn't work altogether. My mother has one of these water kettle, and she has the same problem. I think there is manufacturing defect in the microcomputer control mechanism. Don't buy it."
374493,1,Not an introductory book at all!,"I took this course from one of the authors and it was awful. The examples were bad, and did not have enough practice problems to learn the basics - it assumed you could get the material straight from the reading. Unfortunately, this course was not worth the time and money I spent on it."
374509,1,Save your money,"Buy a Husqvarna or Stihl. I've owned two Poulan Pro's and both were GREAT at the start. After using them a few times they failed to start and I always had issues with the chain coming off. It's probably fine for someone who cuts every once in a blue moon, but if you plan on having something that will last, DON'T BUY POULAN."
374514,1,Does not include Audio Companion,"I assumed (incorrectly) that this was the same item as sold on the Rosetta website, but for 49.00 cheaper. It is not. It does not include the audio companion, which was one of the main reasons I purchased due to long commutes.I had to call Rosetta Stone (cannot order seperately on-line, must go through sales via phone) and paid $55.00 for it. I therefore spent more with Amazon, not less as they advertise (they are doing a price comparison with Rosetta Stone, but not comparing the same products!) and had to wait several weeks and go through a lot of trouble just to get what I could have gotten for less with an actual guarantee through the website. Don't buy from Amazon - go through Rosetta Stone!"
374534,1,RIP OFF!...,"I used to have a I.R.(infa red) control pad for ps1. When I saw this I thought it would be just as responsive as the one I had. I was wrong, this thing doesn't work. The anolog sticks are not sensitive enough and if you play sports games like madden you have no accuracy at all on field goals. Don't throw your money away on this. I hope someone comes out with a good I.R. one like I used to have."
374542,1,a little disappointed,i had originally purchased this as a birthday present. i was disappointed to find out after a month of waiting for my order that at the time of purchase the seller was on vacation. i dont think sellers should make their merchandise available online if they are unable to ship it within a timely manner and if so at least post that there will be a delay int he processing or maybe even discount the shipping price.
374561,1,Save Your Money,"I don't know why people are raving about this tub. I think it's just horrible. I bought one for my son before he was born. He is 4 months old now, and I'm looking for a new tub to buy. I did like the hammock feature with this tub, but that's the only good aspect. (Hence two stars instead of just one.) My son slides all over the place in this tub on the infant side. It's just a poor design. The green padding is not mold/mildew resistant. I wipe down the tub with soap every day and let it air dry after using it, but it's still starting to smell. I tried ripping off some of the padding, unfortunately it doesn't come off well. I would recommend a different design without padding."
374608,1,Below Expectation,"It promises a lot, but I hope the author understands that satisfaction with a book is aligned with the expectation fulfilled."
374628,1,Waste of money,"My six year old received this as a gift. After spending countless hours trying to install the software and make it work, I have given up. Customer service was no help. They assured me that it was my computer that wouldn't work and not the product. I have recently tried it on another computer and still find that it doesn't work. Don't waste your money."
374643,1,Dumbest Product EVAAAR!,"Title says it all. I shouldn't have to go to the hardware store to buy something to MAKE this product work. It should work OUT OF THE BOX. Who the hell has 4"" wide doors?"
374646,1,Meh...,"This product works fine if it fits the doorway perfectly. But be warned - If the space under your door is too wide it won't work at all and just hinders the opening and closing of the door. The materials are cheap as well, seems like I should have paid less for a scrap of fabric and 2 foam tubes."
374753,1,REBA IS NEARLY DROWNED OUT BY THE MUSIC,Reba says in the liner notes of this CD that she wanted this to be akin to a crisp mountain stream not an ocean. Well she got the ocean. The cover art is all beach stuff and the songs inside reflect that. Some of the songs aren't bad but they really aren't up to her standard. The pop oriented fans which are most of what Reba has these days will eat this up. Its obvious that she will never return to traditional country so I don't know why I continue to support her when she records middle of the road stuff like this. Her band played on here.....loudly I might add!!! Her voice is drowned out by the banging of the instruments done in a rock fashion that appeals to people and the background vocals...well....whatever happened to a thing called overdubbing and singing harmony with yourself?? More is not necessarily better!!
374766,1,Really was boring,"Not writing a review--like the other reviewer don't want to waste anymore of my time. Frankly even if I wanted to write a review it was so forgettable, that well I forgot it. It's a great movie for insomniacs, I do remember that. Just rating it."
374823,1,I USED TO BE A FAN OF THE SHOW UNTIL I SAW THE TRUMP SONS...,"On the internet smiling after they slaughtered innocent animals in Africa, One trump boy is holding a up a slaughtered elephants tale, gloating. It is absolutely despicable. If you watch the show or buy these Apprentice dvd's, you are supporting this. Please do not support the sickening sport of these privileged losers. See these photos for your self. They are all over the internet."

374850,1,"Click, click, click","If you want to wash your clothes very slowly with tap water, this iron is for you!! When this iron works, it works great. However this is a very infrequent occurence. Most of the time, you will spend about ten minutes clicking the little button trying to get the iron to understand you want to begin ironing, the iron seems to have such a high opinion of itself that it thinks you are done before you have even started. Most of the time i prefer wearing slightly wrinkled clothing instead of having to use this iron."
374915,1,BUYER BEWARE!!!,"After reading all the great reviews, I bought this iron for my wife. It lasted just long enough to get out of the warranty. Everything works but it won't heat up, turns on etc. Now that I've gone back and looked at some reviews of those who actually owned it for more than a week, I see several with the same result as I. She loved the way it worked, and probably used it two to three times a week, just too bad it won't last. I ask anyone who reads this.....PLEASE don't review a product the same day you open the box and use something the first time!"
374969,1,Nickelback's little brother,"I don't have much to say here, everything's already been said. This band sounds exactly like Nickelback, only not as good. If you like this kind of music, Nickelback's Silver Side Up is the way to go. We don't need no stinking vikings, and we don't need no stinking clones either. If you want to know what this album is like, go see Silver Side Up reviews with this in mind : ""...only worse"".After that is said, I always try to find something positive in every record. Sometimes I can't, but this time I got lucky. Of course, if you've heard the single Make Up Your Mind and you think it's the best song ever, then buy this right now ! If you think Nickelback is the best band in the world, there's a good chance you'll like this too. And that's my cue to leave !"
374977,1,Eh.....,"Full Collapse is decent for what it is, but not essential by any means. Thursday is perhaps the best of what has been dubbed the ""mainstremo"" movement, and while their brand of stream-lined emocore is a nice respite from the slew of bad Blink 182 rip-offs, it's nothing special either. Some melodic guitar riffs here, a screamed chorus there, repeat. If this is your thing, I'm sure you'll enjoy it; it's not god-awful by any stretch. But this just doesn't move me anymore. I'd suggest you buy yourself a Jawbox record; it lasts longer."
375006,1,Skate un sharpener,This is not good for even a minor touch up of the skate blades. Abrasive element is a cheap paper backed sanding disk used in a rotary tool. This does no sharpening just dulls your skates.
375016,1,Spend your money on a gardener,"The Extendable Pruning Saw only works if you don't extend it. At 12 feet the handle becomes too flexible and prevents most of the ""down pressure"" needed for the saw to cut. The only way I was able to prune the tree was to get a ladder and climb into the tree and use a regular saw. I thought that maybe I was too old to use this tool but I asked a friend who was half my age and in good shape to help. He wasn't able to make any cuts either. I spent about $50 on this product. Since I won't be using this product again my investment becomes a waste of money. For 50 bucks I could have paid my friend to climb up the tree and prune the sucker! I am Forlorn to Find that Fiskars Fully Fails on this item. Stick with their scissors."
375017,1,Don't waste your money!,"This saw was advertised as a ""professional"" tool. I would not hire anyone who used this piece of crap. The blade is so flimsy that it wobbles during use, and it binds in shallow kerfs. The pole is flimsy and bends when extended. The saw is barely sharp enough to cut butter. All around, this product is a piece of crap. The only good thing about this buying experience is that I did not have to pay shipping costs.This saw will be on the Friday morning trash pile. It is a good candidate for recycling."
375025,1,"Are you kidding me, again?","I do not have to even wait until it comes out. This is NOT, I repeat NOT Foreigner. This is the Mick Jones Solo band playing Foreigner's music. Was one not bad enough? I do not care what it sounds like. If you want respect, call it what it is!!!!!!"
375052,1,Not worth the price,We bought ours a couple of years ago and it works well enough although if you toast two bagels one after another the first one will come out underdone the second one burnt. We junked it the other day as the support arm for the bagel was so flimsy it buckled under the weight of the bagel and was at risk of contacting the heater coil creating a short.
375068,1,Please don't waste your time...,"Now, I'm into Jazz. I appreciate Jazz as an art form and enjoy its merits. I bought this album, and it is horrible. Here was an ablum featuring one of the motivating musical forces in the life of Dave Matthews and a taste of the music scene in Charlottesville, VA. Who wouldn't be interested? Sadly, what I experienced as I listened was pretentious, badly written ""jam jazz."" The tracks could not even be saved by the incredible talent of Carter Beauford on percussion, whose abilities seemed ""caged"" throughout. Don't buy this CD expecting Matthews' minimal involvement and Carter's talent to make it a good CD, because it isn't. Don't waste your time on this one."
375081,1,Never liked this series,"I'm sure this is one of those books that you either love or hate. I just can't get into the humor. The quality of the writing is of course good and if you like Adam's stype them you'll fidn this book a 5*. For me the story is infantile and just not funny. I'd rate the story 1* but in fairness I know it is more a matter of taste, hence 2* to reflect the fact that it is well written."
375113,1,Too sensitive to temperature.,"Though a good product, its accuracy varies dramatically when taken out from an airconditioned indoor room or car to out doors.It varies from 1Ft to 3Ft for a distance of 200ft. This makes this product pretty useless."
375116,1,"Looks good, but...","This phone sucks. The software is slow, especially when the phone is loaded with lots of pictures. The buttons are clumsy to push, especially if you have big fingers. Ergonomically you would do better with an older model Motorola cellphone. The buttons on the side are laid out in a manner that when you handle the phone you frequently tend to change the ringer to off inadverdently. That is a real design boo boo.The RF section is, however, pretty sensitive and stacks up well against any other phone in terms of talk distance and reception.Don't waste your money."
375138,1,Motor burned out quickly,"I got this kit as a gift about six months ago. During the past six months, I have used it only about five times and the motor burned out! It does say that it comes with a two year limited warranty, but you need a DATED RECEIPT in order to return it. Well, since it was a gift, I guess I'm just out of luck. Consequently, I would not buy this product."
375147,1,I could not wait to finish it,"I bought this book with high expectations (a bit like 'the reader', no doubt), but they were dashed by the end of the first chapter. As the page numbers increased, so did the absurdity. Some of the 'novels within' were of interest but the whole was not very satisfying. I would recommend virtually every book I have read in the last 8 or so years before this one."
375160,1,way way to short!!,"I cannot belive that Nikon would sell a remote cable that is only 19in. long. What were they thinking, my arm length is longer than that!! The idea of a remote is to be a good distance away from the camera. On top of it bing to short, they want a kings ransom for it!"
375167,1,Wireless link fails,"I had the same problems others have noted. The link to the remote receiver fails, with no warning, even though both the 'test' routines work on both the transmitter and receiver separately. Thus the product is useless"
375271,1,Birds of a Feather,"All you need to know about this book is that Amazon.com is pairing it for marketing purposes with Ann Coulter's fictional offering ""Treason."""
375312,1,Not worth it,"This tub seemed like it would be great, but like everyone else had wrote, the shower part broke just a few times after using it. If you have a sprayer at your kitchen sink, then there is no reason to waste your money on this tub. The Sure Comfort Deluxe Newborn-to-Toddler Tub is just as comfortable and easy to bathe baby in, and almost half the money. I had registered for this product without reading reviews first, and luckily was able to exchange it at Babies R Us for credit towards another. The sling is a comfortable angle to wash your baby in, but that is the only positive comment I have regarding this product."
375394,1,Ripoff!!,"One test only, two cheap plastic bottles and a three test strips. Made in China worth all of $1. Run, dont walk, away from this $20 swindle."
375464,1,Better than nothing,"I read a review that said the sliders are great. They are. Everything in between is not. The plastic cracks. My biggest compliant is the mouse tray. It mounts to the side at a significantly lower level than the keyboard tray. It's killing my wrist. I avoid my mouse as best I can for this reason, but sometimes it can't be avoided. On these days, my wrist is sore for days."
375529,1,Save your money. This text is uninspiring and uninteresting.,"This is one of the few cookbooks that I have purchased (my collection is in excess of 500 volumes) that I have found to be totally disappointing and uninspiring in its content. There was not a single recipe that I found even remotely tempting. Not one that I was interested in making. Nor was there any useful information imparted vis a vis cooking techniques. Save your money, look for something else."
375606,1,LOOK MA I HAVE NO TALENT!,"I RATHER LISTEN TO WINGER AND EUROPE THAN THESE DEPRESSED LITTLE GIRLS!SAY NO TO KITTIE!SAY YES TO ISIS, CONVERGE, MESHUGGAH, DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN, ARCH ENEMY OR EVEN BRITNEY SPEARS WHO COULD FLIP THESE LITTLE PANSIES LIKE A BURNT HAMBURGER!"
375628,1,Did anyone else have problems with promptness of this item being shipped?,"I am disappointed that carrier has not even been shipped yet after ordering it almost 2 weeks ago. I wanted to take my time and do research to make sure I bought the right item the first time, but still need time to get our dog used to it. It was supposed to be delivered by April 19th at the latest but the item has not even shipped, they pushed the delivery estimate to between April 23, 2010 - May 3, 2010 and when I clicked the item for details so I could contact the seller it says ""Not Shipped Delivery Estimate April 30, 2010 - May 14, 2010."" We are leaving for our trip on May 12th now I am scrambling to either talk to someone with Teafco or find another carrier. Did anyone else have a problem with the item shipping? Any suggestions? Thank you!I gave it one star because I have to give it something to post this."
375656,1,Very dissapointed mommy 2 be,I was extremely dissapointed with this cover. I bought 2 of the quilted velour version and made the rookie mistake of washing them (even in cold water) before checking to make sure it fit with the contoured changing pad. It is much too small and looks terrible! Don't make the same mistake & buy this cover for that pad. Luckily we got one of the Wendy Bellisimo ones also which were (...)more expensive but fit perfectly!
375662,1,SUCK dont bother buying this Leap Frog does not stand behind their poorly made toys,Coins jam up non stop...called leap frog and they will not do anything about it. Very disapointed. Guess I will stick to Fisher Price where they stand behind their toys!
375674,1,Microsoft should be ashamed,"My Fun rating of 5 is based upon my use of FS 2004 and what FSX is SUPPOSED to do. Like so many users of earlier versions, I was disappointed and dismayed that this program is all but unusable on my Pentium 4, 2.6 Ghz with 512 Mb of RAM, which exceeds the minimum specified by Microsoft. The time it takes from launching the program until you are taking off on your default flight is at least 5 minutes, and that's with all of the graphics settings at minimal quality. And if you can get the plane to fly at all, the frame rates are very low, and drop to less than 1 FPS with medium graphics settings. I even bought a new video card thinking that would help the problem. It didn't. Even the FS ""experts"" who have been writing about how great this product is prior to release are struggling to ""tweak"" their settings and are recommending 2GB of RAM to make the product perform, even though Microsoft recommends 256MB minumum. Microsoft should be ashamed for putting this on the market."
375700,1,I'm shocked that this hasn't been recalled,This is a very dangerous toy. The wheel that spins around if your child does not have a block in their hand they can easily get their wrist or fingers pinched. This can happen from either side. This should have had a safety release for spinning only when there is a peek-a-boo block in the wheel. Other issues is the one item that acts like a see-saw my almost one year old has gotten his fingers pinched so many times under it as it rocks back and forth. Fisher Price could have easily come up with a better design so that there is no space under that rocking mechanism. Don't buy this unless you want countless cries...
375729,1,Not really for adults...,"I thought it felt and looked cheap. It didn't cost much, I got what I paid for, ""not much."" Next time, maybe, I'll not be so hasty."
375737,1,was great at first but....,Im so heartbroken after using this FAST shampoo and conditioner the second day..my hair didnt cooperate it became unmanageable and dry...I wouldnt recommend this FAST hair products for anyone with chemically treated hair!!
375767,1,love munsch - hate this book,"It was such a shame to read this book after enjoying so many other Munsch books! The shameful lack of manners the little girl shows each time she demands new markers is only exacerbated by the fact that the mother obiently goes out and purchases them for her time and time again. My husband will not read this book to the children --- I have agreed to do so but I insert ""pleases and may I's and thank you's"" wherever needed (quite often!). The book IS funny, it does capture childhood creativity and vulnerability to temptation. It is just too bad that the little girl had to be such a BRAT and that the mother had to be such a WIMP! Certainly not the message we need to be sending our children."
375828,1,Great Pictures but Wow I can't get the cartridge out!!!!!,"I love the quality of this printer. I have had so much fun printing Cd labels. Unlike the other reviewers, I was actually surprised that the ink lasted as long as it did. I don't know if I just don't do as much printing as others but I was surprised. My problem was in changing the cartridges. It is very hard. I presently have two that won't come out at all. I have sent an email to Epson but I am ready to throw the whole thing in the dumpster. My fingers are so sore from trying to get them out that I am thinking of buying another brand. When I bought it, the reviews were pretty good, but there were some who said it was expensive to get the ink. I was prepared to spend the money for good pictures. I replaced the cartridges once with no problem but now I am unable to replace the ones that are empty. It doesn't work at all with empty cartridges so I can't use it all. I will probably buy a Canon........"
375853,1,Hamster hated the consequences,"Despite the warnings mentioned on other reviews about the leakage issue we believe in the product line and purchased the 8 ounce version as a dual source for our small cage. To our regret we found that it was too big to fit inside the cage and our only choice was to replace 4 ounce bottle that came with the cage. Despite our belief that the occasional drops were tolerable, the 8 ounces of water dribbled out overnight. The hamster had a fit and tossed the wet bedding out of her cage throughout the room. Our goal of insuring she would always have a water supply was defeated, we had a mess to clean up and we are back to our original bottle. AVOID this product despite it's greatintentions."
375864,1,Ruined my caramel,My family bought me this thermometer for Christmas 2010. I make caramels every holiday season for friends and family. The first batch I made this season using this thermometer was ruined. Too hard. I tried a second batch using my old candy thermometer and the new one. Guess what? The CDN thermometer was off by 10 degrees! No wonder the caramel overcooked. I agree with the other reviewer that the design of this thermometer calls for lots of liquid and a straight-sided pan. Don't bother buying this for candy.
375869,1,Big Disappointment,"I was shocked to find this CD so disappointing, that I only could listen to 4 of the 18 songs all the way thru without hitting the ""forward"" button on the stereo. Definitely not the Mac of the past, and for sure I won't ever buy anything of theirs in the future. I have never been moved to write a negative review before, but I have to say this is probably the worst CD I have bought in a few years. Guess I should have listened to more samples before buying it out of the adoring faith of past work..... my mistake indeed."
375883,1,A Turkey!,"I didn't purchase this thermometer for deep frying a turkey. I just needed it for my counter top deep fryer. But as I tested the temp of the oil, I got the feeling that the thermometer's calibration was off. So I tested the temp of the oil with my Thermapen Instant Thermometer and, sure enough, the deep fry thermometer was off by 20-degrees. That would have been enough for a 3-star rating, but even worse, after calibration the deep fryer thermometer didn't hold the calibrated temp. The only positive thing I can say is that the thermometer is easy to calibrate - and it should be since calibration is required so often."
375888,1,This is boring,"This is really really really really really really BORING! I hate it. It stinks. If I had known that this book was this bad I would not have gotten this. I am really happy that this was free. I suggest to you not to wast the time, and to read insteadThe Hunger Games,The Hunger But Mainly Death Games: A Parodyor,The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Book 1), but notTwilight (The Twilight Saga, Book 1)."
375925,1,Battery issues,Battery started dying within a year and after 3 years needs a new one. This has to be done by a service centre and the battery was $64 plus labor. I am contacting Breville Australia again in the hope I can get a new battery like the engineer (great help!). Product would have been good withLithium ion and spare battery like a cordless drill.. Which I've found takes my beater attachment and works to do most tasks!! Try it lol#stoplandfill
375937,1,This item can be dangerous,I have had several occasions where I could not release the item when I put it in or took it out of the oven. In both cases my dinner ended up on the floor. Thank god there wasn't a child near by. I think these should be recalled. The silicone strips are simply too tacky.
375971,1,Blendtec total blender going nowhere,"Unfortunately, disappointing product. The inside plastic got scratched from blending frozen mango pieces, so presumably plastic in drink. When making a berry shake with yogurt and frozen berries and small ice cubes, rotors unable to blend. A lot of noise and very little happening."
376074,1,Golf Course Home Designs,Do not be fooled. This is simply a rehash of previously published home designs. I found no real correlation between the title and the content. Save your $$.
376091,1,don't buy refurbished,this company advertised refurbished and this item was apparently not completely checked out.What aggravated me the most was that I had to pay the postage to return an Item that did not work as advertised.I will never again buy a so called refurbished item or from this seller again.
376130,1,not the best,"the name of these hip scarves is true. they are deff. imperfect! they are made really cheap, and dont really stay on your hips really well when your dancing. i wouldnt buy another one."
376150,1,glue is solid in the tube,I bought two tubes of this glue. All came solid in the tube. The two tubes were returned to Amazon for replacement. A refund was credited.Elmer's E1006 Lawn & Garden Cement 5/8-Ounce
376173,1,Disappointed,We were into the second season when we realized there was a double disc and therefore a missing discI had to return the whole season
376230,1,"decent book, disappointing dominoes","I thought I'd found a good deal with the book and 112 dominos set. The book is informative and a good beginner book, but the dominos included are cheap and too small to really do anything with. Nowhere on the box or ad does it say they are not real dominos. I was disappointed."
376313,1,Save your ears,"I borrowed this audiobook from my library. I really love JAK. I went into this knowing it was an early book of hers, so therefor didn't have my normal expectations. However, this book, while not her best, was made that much worse by an over-enunciating narrator whose male/female voices didn't really vary. The only reason I kept listening is so I could find out what happened.The story itself wasn't that bad. If you want to read it still, my suggestion - get the hard copy."
376334,1,Very very slow,"Wow! This is slow. I like Douglas Clegg generally but this particular novel, ugh! The last 1/4 of the book picked up but by then it was a little to late. The ending, very predictable."
376344,1,Do not be hoaxed by the media hype!!!,"I loved her cover picture on CD. However, her music is not really world class. Well, I do strongly recommend to listen before you buy. Otherwise you will be sorry. I have seen her on T.V when I was in Germany,Munchen. Well, her live performance was also not that impressive. anyhow, time will tell if she is realy talanted or something else."
376351,1,The Bagpipes & Drums of Scotland / Folk music from Scotland.,"""Bagpipes and drums"". It reminds me of the circus songs, in someway. It goes on and on sounding very much the same. ""Folk music from Scotland"", has better variety and vocals. Some of the songs are lively, with the excited violin sound."
376365,1,Nothing special,"I've been using this for a few weeks now, and I really don't see a difference. Appearex was better."
376415,1,oh man... (in stressed kinda way),"The thing is too expensive, the parts are crap, and it can't play games that are too advanced for it(Doom 3, Far Cry, Half-Life 2, any other 2004-2005 games). It's the computer that I'm using right now, which sucks."
376456,1,Just Doesn't Last,"Purchased a second after the first malfunctioned. The second lasted even shorter than the first. These are too easy to overwind and the item simply stops working and bingo--its dead. If you plan to purchase this item, wind it very slowly and only briefly. Then perhaps it will work. We have decided its more advantageous to simply purchase a new microwave."
376476,1,SMALL AND NOT AS DESCRIBED!,"1st, this is not a ""Large"" Aquarium piece at all. 2nd, the measurements are more like 10.5""x3""x4 1/4"", and 3rd, the coloring is NOTHING like the photo. The ""Rum"" words are barely made out, the green is very dark, not light, and the overall painting is dark and dismal, not that of any aquarium piece. I feel very taken by this listing, and am glad to be able to return. I would in no way recommend this unless you have a small aquarium, 10 gallons or less, and do not like color involved."
376562,1,JUNK,"Bought this product at Walgreens because the inside of my nose has been itchy all day. This product says ""with Aloe Vera"". Total waste of nearly $10. This product hasn't soothed any itchyness nor does the aloe scent seem to last very long."
376595,1,Ok game...,"Ok game but the setup is very bad... If you don't have a memory card then don't buy this game... First of all the first board takes 30 minutes to get through and you don't get to do anything because it is a tutorial... So if you don't save the game you have to play the first board, and also the gameplay isn't free enough, it practicly plays itself... If you have a memory card, it's a good game, if you don't i wouldn't recomend it."
376672,1,"Creases paper, Jams",Have two of these printers. Both began creasing the center of paper after a short period of use. Creases got worse and they started to jam. Went to Brother online tech support. Was told to use other paper. Emailed back that I used high quality paper but was told that was the cause. Not so. This seems to be a common problem with this printer and Brother will not acknowledge. Past Brother printers work great. Not sure I will try another Brother.
376681,1,Thumbs down..,"Well... What can i say, its disposable music. The lyrics are lacking in any sense of intelect, Really doesnt give you anything to think about. The music is the same punky pop power chords riffed over, and over, and OVER. The songs are very repetative, and if you like music this band doesnt give much. Nothing very unique or special, which is probably why they are so underground... they dont deserve much else. Go pick up an album like Master of puppets, by metallica... its worth your money. Sugarcult is bottom of the barrel punk."
376685,1,not as advertised,this is advertised as the complete series. this is not the original series from the 1960's but a remake of the series which was produced decades later. i was very disappointed as this is not what i expected.
376787,1,ABSOLUTE JUNK,"I received my table today, and to put it mildly, it is junk. We have it together, now, by mega amounts of glue.I have put this type of item together many times, this is by far the worst, engineering wise and quality wise. The boarding is so thin that it breaks apart easily when you try to put the screws in it and hold it together. The predrilled screw holes are almost as wide as the board.Upon receipt of the table we found several pieces had been broken off, in fact it appears that someone else received this and sent it back, as there were many loose pieces just juggling around in the box.Should Stacks, etc., wish to make it good by us, they can be in touch. I am so disappointed with this product. It doesn't even qualify for one star..."
376854,1,"""From"" Palaestra and ""Authored by"" Ranny Levy?","Ranny Levy copies/pastes movie reviews from Kids First and written by teenagers, and posts them as her own. Is this book any different? I am not spending $5.95 for 5 pages to find out, but I suspect it's more plagiarism and would not recommend it to anyone valuing their money."
376939,1,faulty toys,"I had bought this as a Christmas present for my nephew. He only got to play with it for 10 min. before it broke. I had to drive back into OKC to exchange it, for anthor toy because this product was not aval.!!!!!!"
376954,1,I am sorry I read it!,"Well written, but EXCEEDINGLY UNPLEASENT! I was surely not expecting it to end like that! I am sorry that I read this book. It has extremely disturbing images related in a casual, flippant manner. Indeed, Westlake seems to be more or less advocating MURDER as a means of advancing one's career, maintaining one's lifestyle. Or, as he puts it, ""the end justifies the means""."
376984,1,Not worth it.,Very excited to use my parts washer and ordered the flow through brush. Unfortunately the brush lasted two weeks before it started leaking out of the top of the bristle collar. Really bad quality.
377010,1,Have all the toymakers sold their souls too?!,"I agree with most of the reviewers. So, are they going to come out with a FEMA Camp playset so that the young ones will be used to them and when they are sent there (for real) will think it's all just for a play date?! After all of the harmful ingredients and coatings found in or on most major toys lately - most of which are made in China - I think that I'll go to the old work bench in my garage and start making my own. Actually, that would be a great idea for some concerned Americans to do for our kids, who ARE, after all, OUR FUTURE! This country has gone insane!"
377012,1,Playmobil Poke n Play Cavity Search Set,I cannot confirm it but there are rumors that they are coming out with a companion product featuring a full body scanner and dolls that have hollow torsos that you can stuff with little round pellets.
377067,1,crappy acting and lousy plot,the actors are so horrible and there is a lousy story line. they should have much better movies than these
377077,1,wrong isbn,The isbn number I ordered was 0072866845 the isbn # I recieved is 007121582-4 or 007121427-5 both numbers are on the book.
377096,1,Denied shippement,"I whish I could share my opinion about the product that I ordered - but I never received it!It did not make it thru German customs. After paying a lot of money, mainly shipping costs - Iwould wish products with known customs issues were tagged in some kind of way, when ordered forshipping outside the States..."
377156,1,"Not ""Adult"" Enough For Me","Before purchasing this, I read the reviews and I read the software description. Unfortunately, the content wasn't 'adult' enough. This is good for kids to teenagers. The games are like video games. The music drove me nuts & I turned it off, but then when the lesson went to a game, I had no music. One of the games is to type with rhythm - couldn't hear the music. Turned sound back on; couldn't figure out rhythm & I'm not musically challenged. Also, we have a large monitor & I found the system's onscreen font difficult to read; it was not all that clear. I was ""bleeped"" for typing a 'one' when the 'l' looked the same. Drove me crazy. But, like I said, this would be a good program for the younger set & the beginning typist. My goal is to maintain my 65wpm and possibly increase."
377252,1,RCA WHP141 900MHZ Wireless Stereo Headphones,"I received these on January 25, 2012 when I opened the box nothing had plastic on it except the batteries that came with them. After putting the batteries into the headphones it didn't work than I tried a brand new pack of batteries it still didn't work. Then I the charger into the wall it didn't work either. I believe this product was used & this is the worst product I brought from Amazon. I am sending them back."
377316,1,Light Duty Use Only,"I bought 2 of these from Northern Tool. I wanted to move a 4 wheel trailer and some equipment around the shop yard. The rims are aluminum and break at the hubs.Trying to make turns, the axles and tires just gave out. Maybe for an small, lightweight 2 wheel trailer they'll work ok. But heavy duty? Not even close."
377332,1,Lovercraft? Snorecraft!,"Ok, I have to agree 100% with the review below, don't waste your money. Silly plot premise...plodding plot....stifled, clunky prose (and waaay too much of it), and stupid oversized catepillars for evil creatures. The protagonists were supposed to be scary? Come on, you could get creeped out more reading Harry Potter! I forced myself through about 75 pages before throwing it down in disgust. Awful, awful book. Don't let it ruin your opinion of Lumley though, Necroscope is an excellent series."
377348,1,Waste of time and $$$,"Ok, the intructor stinks, she loses count of reps, is never in synch with the music and she just doesnt motivate me at all. The workout itself is SO easy and the cardio section doesnt work you into a sweat at all. Dont even bother."
377403,1,Won't keep coffee hot for more than 2 hours,I bought this thermos and the 16 ounce version at the same time. This 26 ounce thermos will not keep coffee hot for even two hours. The 16 ounce version keeps coffee hot for 8+ hours. I give the 16 ounce version five stars.
377411,1,Symanted has the WORST IN SERVICE OUT THERE!!!!,I was not able to boot my G4 Laptop from my Norton System Works 3.0. According to the company website I had to get a new disk. I called for the first time this past Wednesday. After better than 30 minutes on hold I finally got a customer service person who told me I needed permission from TECH SUPPORT and that they were closing early sorry. On Thursday I called Tech Support and after 3 rude Tech People finally someone gave me an order number to give to the Customer Service people. Tech doesn't accept orders. It is now Friday and I have yet to get a Customer Service person on again.There is no prompt for people who need a disk shipped. There isnt a Mac area promt so I have to go through the General Help menu. NO ONE COMES TO THE PHONE! I pity those that have to deal with this company.They should turn their anti-virus scan on themselves and eliminate the management structure of this company.
377420,1,O-Ringer!!,The company looked to save a few pennies on the screw cap o-ring and screwed themselves. The original tumblers had a double-layered o-ring that also fit perfectly about the inner circumference of the lid. The new tumblers have a single leyered o-ring that is also smaller in diameter than the lid circumference. The result is a gasket that folds up on one side as you screw the lid on and allows any liquid to leak from the side of the lid. I was able to recover the original tumbers I tossed away and removed those o-rings. They are now on the new tumblers but I have no plans to purchase this product in the future. Repeated emails to the company's customer service department were ignored. You've been warned!
377435,1,nice way to treat your customers brother,"when every single person posts about this error 41 and yet the company continues to sell defective products, well, that shows you what they think of their customers.never never never again brother."
377438,1,JVC HAW300RF 900mhz Wireless Headphones Evaluation,Major problem with these headphones is the extremely narrow tuning band. In order to listen you have to adjust the headset frequency to the base frequency perfectly. They are both easily adjusted but the tuning goes out quite readily and you either lose sound quality or just get static. I wouldn't buy them again.
377458,1,This [stinks].,"I bought this album because I was told that Hatebreed was an essential member of any hardcore fan's collection. Now, I may be wrong.. but doesn't a band have to be good to be considered essential? The songs all sound the same, the lyrics are terrible, the music is simplistic, but not in a good Sick Of It All way.I Hate It.Buy something else."
377509,1,where's the beef?,"I'm a 50 yr old with 30 yrs. playing and own every album Joe has made so why does this dvd rate 1 star? TONE!!!! Joe plays excellent, the filming and eq are great but every song sounds the same! If it were'nt for Raspberry Jam and Stu's solo on Love Thing this would not be in my collection. I own every guitar dvd I can get my hands on and my fellow pickers and I agree that the monotony of listening to the same guitar for two disc's kills the show. Other artist's (with endorsement) can pick up a Gibson, Fender or even an accoustic to mix things up a bit. Love Thing sounds 200% better are the album. This is an Ibanez commercial. Clapton in the recent PBS Blues Special stated that his Cream period was self indulgent-ditto for this dvd.Every concert dvd in my collection has ""magic moments"" that are awe inspiring to guitar players, I'm not talking 19 yr old death metal dudes and this one takes a back shelf."
377539,1,pretty bad,"Bought it only because we had PS #1. Some good moments,but pretty dumb. Why do you dumbbells keep taking these dead things to the cemetary with always negative creepy results????? Relic monster took too long to show himself-pretty good monster though. When you finally see glimpses of him."
377567,1,I had two with problems,"The first one of these I got produced an incredible amount of static electricity. I would walk within a few feet of it and shock anything that I touched. My cat would do the same thing, and shock me whenever it touched me, if it was by the purifier.So I got a replacement for it, and it seemed to produce a lot less static electricity, but after a few days there was a burning plastic smell emitting from it. I have also tried a different model of Holmes and had the same problem with the burning smell emitting from it after a few days.Lots of people have good luck with theirs it seems, but I didn't. It was nice when it worked, I loved it, but it didn't last for me. Hit or miss I guess."
377577,1,Dissapointing,"This is a horrible pad. I purchased this from Toys ""R"" Us yesterday, and it was not working. It did not even have any instructions! I immediately returned it and purchased a different one. It also did not work. It seems as if they were returned items. It looked to be re-sealed, and there was even tape on one of the pads which I purchased that was on a broken battery covering. I thought I was the only one that was having problems, but apparently not. I strongly do not recommend this product. These pads are not manufactured well at all, and it seems as if they are all defective."
377594,1,Prickly Pear,"My hubby and I got this thinking wonderful! Oh, no... I don't think you should wish this product on your worst neighbor (unless they deserve a good prick for being one!) If your looking at this item, turn away! There are feathers all over my room they get thru the fabric, thru a padded cover and into your body all night long! I gave it a month thinking maybe it will get better, OH NO!! It's worse! Don't BUY!!Wouldn't you think that Amazon would stand behind their products and if this many people hated this pin cushion this much that they would send a replacement or do some kind of recall while they kick themselves for ever selling a product like this??? I for one will probably not buy something on sale or recomended by Amazon ever again! This was my first Amazon experience and it will probably be my last!"
377614,1,Down the chute. . .,"The episode is one of the ""darkest"" of the Voyager series. Harry & Tom are in a prison where no one escapes and the inmates are left to administer their own punishments to each other. This is one of my least favorite although I like the interplay between Harry and Tom."
377705,1,Statistician?,"This book was definately the result of many hours of crunching data and formulating convictions about it. I believe that the author could have had some help with the statistics behind his endeavor. You really have to question his understanding of statistics. The format of the book was weak. About two pages of text per 20 graphs that restate the text for when your eyes get tired of trying to read the words. There is some value in reading this book, hence the two stars. You will realize somewhat of a strategy, but because of his fishy smelling data and conclusions, I would steer clear."
377742,1,Cellet or no Cellet...,"It seems to be a very nice item that would be very handy if you have a phone that fits it. I left a low rating not because it is a bad quality item, but of the following problem. The process of purchasing the item went very smooth. That is, paying for the phone case. The only problem is that I never received the items that I've purchased. I have taken all the steps that are necessary, including corresponded with the seller and letting them know of the problem. Called the USPS and having them investigate a never received package. I have nothing against the seller, they wrote to me that they sent out the package. The only problem I have is that I have never received it!"
377811,1,Eiko flood lights lasted 5 months.,"GE flood lights lasted 5 years, these lasted 5 months!! will go back to GE. they are bright. fine while they lasted."
377821,1,Idiocy Becomes Science,"One hopes not. It is disturbing anyone would actually consider something so full of tripe, illogical leaps from 'facts' to 'conclusion' as worth buying much less believing. Whatever your beliefs, this book sells them short. If you're in the Darwin camp, it's just plain wrong. If you're a creationist* it has the same problem -- it doesn't make the case. In short, this book fails to serve ANYONE anything of any value. I'm absolutely not taking sides, but you HAVE to take a position and defend it one way or the other. This book tries to ride the fence and is only good for toilet paper (perhaps). We need a ""ZERO STAR"" review for especially trashy books as this one is.* that's Intelligent Design no matter what anyone's claims"
377823,1,"1 star, and I'm an ID proponent","Well, I've read many ID titles including Behe, Denton and Johnson (I even got to hear Philip speak once) and I'd say there are better presentations than this one. I've wanted to read it for awhile since it was considered once for inclusion in some science curricula (I believe). If you choose to read it, read the chapters first and then go back and read the Intro. (or better yet, read the intro only and then pitch the book into the donation box as you'll have the gist)"
377858,1,Black not Grey. So annoyed!,"This is not ""Painted to match factory dash color"" its black and does not match the dark grey. So annoying that they lie. What a waste of $13"
377873,1,dont bother,I haven't read such a load of trash for ages. It is not based as far as I can see on any scientific basis just his opinion. It appears to be just a desire to make money. Please don't bother.
377922,1,Flimsy Roaster with dangerous rack,"After using this pan for a while, I have decided to get a different one, perhaps one I can see and feel before I buy it. The rack in this roasting pan has collapsable handles which are hard to grab since the pan's handles are in the way. I have burned myself repeatedly even using a potholder since grabbing the rack handle leaves the back of the hand exposed to the pan's fixed handles. Probably designed by someone who does not cook much.The pan's bottom is pretty flimsy and does not sit flat so that making gravy in the pan is almost impossible. It does not contact the cooktop since there is a sort of ridge around the edge which prevents the heating element from doing its job.Pretty to look at though, and if you only use it once a year for a Turkey, I suppose it might do. But for the price I paid, and the Analon name, I expected something better."
377962,1,Whatever,"Nick Drake and Joni Mitchell should not license their music to [bad] movies. I will say that Nick could not have had anything to do with this (and definately would not have were he with us). But Joni needs to chill. This is real music made by truly talented people that shouldn't be allowed to be included on the same collection as ""This Kiss"" by Faith Hill. I would like to echo the sentiment of a previous reviewer in saying that credit is due to the soundtrack producer for recognizing Nick Drake's timeless music. But this is another instance (as in the VW spot) where Nick Drake's pure music associates itself with something that goes entirely against the purpose of it in order for Nick to get recognition. I give the record one star for this reason. But if you've never heard Nick Drake or Joni Mitchell, go buy Pink Moon and Blue (respectively)."
378048,1,Awful attempt at renacting a decent tv series,"Why did they bother with this? She's got many fans, a hit series, why not make loads of money by releasing a substandard game? That is the view that the company behind this must have undertaken.Firstly the graphics are terrible! Cut scenes are awful and the in-game graphics are just diabolical! next the gamplay, terrible! A really bad attempt of turning Xena into a tomb raider clone, levels that are bugged fights that are uninvolving and just a whole game engine that doesn't work!On the plus side the chacram is cool in this! If you throw the chacram you go into a pov situated behind and control it! meaning that you can hit out of the way switches, close drawbridges and kill enemies with the cleanest of ease.However despite this it doesn't stop the game from being terrible! Please just avoid this and get something like Resident evil 3 or syphon filter 2. They are far more enjoyable than this pile of dung!"
378078,1,Disposable Compressor!!!!!!!!!!!,"Hi I got this thing and it was great except that it broke! I called today and since it has been past 90 days, it is not under warranty. Amazon will not take it back because it is classified as disposable."
378123,1,Another poor quality Knock-off,"These are slightly thinner and made of a cheaper material that will not last nearly as long as the authentic Oster product. I use my blender several times a day and already these non-rubber gaskets are torn and parts of them must have gotten blenderized without my knowing, so I ingested something that I know not what it is nor how toxic it could be.More and more I see the wisdom in purchasing parts directly from the manufacturer.Amazon is good for books, though."
378159,1,Poor performance with temperature,The compass was fine and so was the clock. The temperature (neither inside or outside) was even close. About 20-25 degrees off.
378166,1,This book is CRAP!!!,"OK--I give any author credit for actually writing a book. But don't pass off your first draft as a piece of literature. Typos, spelling errors and grammatical mistakes are abundant. I can appreciate self-publishing but every word processing program comes with spell check. Use it!The idea of Blackfunk as an aggressive sexual act designed to inflict excrutiating pain and tissue damage, to the point of death, is ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. The whole concept is preposterous. I like Rashaun and Andria as two people finding each other, releasing their demons, and trying to build a life together amidst the backdrop of contemporary Black love. That's fine. Give me that story. Not this convoluted storyline based on the premise of destructive sex.Finally, do not write a book with a BS ending, only to attach an equally poorly written excerpt of the sequel, to entice me to read the next book. Write a complete novel the first time."
378199,1,Not for strong chewers or puppies,"My 7 month old labrador had this toy for three minutes before I had to take it away from her. Although she liked the bacon flavor very much, she had chewed off pieces of the hard plastic along with the tasty treat. I think I got them all out of her mouth before she swallowed them. I'm glad I hadn't left her alone with this toy!"
378219,1,Little liftoff,"2 1/2If your in the mood for Italian adult contemporary this might feign cultured interest, but intelligent songwriting is merely hinted at between easygoing accessabilities."
378220,1,Save your money,"I create my own soaps, creams and lotions from scratch using quality ingredients. I currently do not have a source of information on lotions and such and thought this ebook might help further my skills. It did not and because its an electronic book I can't return it. In my opionion this book is not good for even a serious hobbiest! It uses pre made bases or products (Suave shampoo) that you just add a few things to and call it good. Not good enough for me and not worth $10. If you are looking for the most elementary information then this might be for you."
378227,1,DO NOT BUY!!!!!!!!!!,"I WISH I WOULD HAVE READ ALL OF THESE REVIEWS BEFORE BUYING. I HAVE HAD TROUBLE FROM DAY ONE. SHOOTS OUT DIRT - PET HAIR [ I HAVE LOTS ] GETS CLOGGED IN THE FILTER. I HAVE TO ""PICK"" OUT THE HAIR ETC FROM THE HOSE - IT NEVER MAKES IT TO THE LITTLE CUP. WHEN EMPTYING THE CUP - DIRT GOES EVERYWHERE. MUST SHOWER AFTER EVERY VACUUMING EXPERIENCE!"
378229,1,Don't purchase,"In the beginning it picked up, now it smells like it is burning, cleaning the filter all the time because it will actually move the dust around or spit out of vaccum. It is worthless and I have only had since Sept 07. My other vaccum was used and lasted for about 10 years or more."
378253,1,Stay Away: Brush Roll Breaks on Day One!,"Admittedly, this vacuum has wicked suction compared to our 10 yr old Bissel. But, after getting it out of the box we only managed to vacuum half the house before the brush roll (the main component that actually brushes/vacuums the carpet/floor) stopped dead for no apparent reason. We're sending it back.Also, just a note, the shape/size of that vacuum makes it difficult to get under sofas/tables, without switching to one of the on board attachments, which are myriad.but mad suction."
378269,1,underwhelmed,"If you are sitting close to your printer it is not a bad item, also you may have to ""resend"" to the printer several times before it engages and prints. A little frustrating, I would not recommend."
378307,1,An Outdated book - very disappointed,This book is from 1980s and is out of date. I was disappointed in as things have changed since it was written.
378357,1,Paid Trip to Italy,"I believe Grisham wanted to pay for a trip to Italy and so, somewhat half-heartedly, wrote this book. Not a very worthy effort on the part of a used-to-be-great author."
378362,1,Totally Predictable,"I was really disappointed. I paid $16 for the hardcover and I feel cheated. After about 30 pages I could predict exactly how it would end, and I was right! I won't ruin it for you, but there is a common theme that started in ""The Firm"" that continues here."
378372,1,No progress here,"It's hard to figure out where Grisham is heading as a writer. I am a late comer to his work - The Last Juror was my first attempt at reading him. One gets the strong impression that all J.G. is doing is writing for the big screen (I'm thinking here of adaptations like The Client and the even better movie, Runaway Jury); there simply is not much ""density,"" as Ms. Tartt would put it, to his writing. Is it so surprising, then, that he has 18 or so of these kinds of books out there? I find there is very little literary value to be found in this guy's writing. I say just wait for the movie - same cost as a paperback, but only two hours wasted. A.L."
378410,1,Maybe I got a lemon?,"I pride myself in keeping my possessions in very good condition which is why I purchased this item in the first place. I, like many others, frequently use my laptop and wanted to protect it from the heat. Not more than two months after purchasing this cooler my dog comes up to me carrying a fan blade in her mouth. It wasn't long before two more blades fell off. The stand (also the opening for USB storage) was flimsy and kept falling closed at any slight movement, in time I'm sure major damage would have been done to the wiring. Not to mention how uncomfortable it felt digging into my legs, I own a netbook so it couldn't have been the weight of my computer. Sure it looks great with the wave allowing air to pass through but completely dissatisfied with the product."
378412,1,Not impressed,"First I will say that yes, this item does keep my laptop cool. But I've had it for 6 months now and I just don't think it's that great of a product. Here are my gripes:* It is cheaply made. I have little confidence that it is going to last very long.* It is generally noisy, and every once in a while it makes a terrible groaning sound (probably the belt or something).* It is unsafe to adjust the legs while the fan is on. There have been several occasions where my fingers found their way into the fan.* The USB cord doesn't have a pass-through connector, so it uses up a port.That said, I think there are better products out there. My roommate uses the fan by Antec and it seems to be a better deal."
378437,1,SAVE YOUR VINYL,"BOYSTOWN GANG WERE GREAT! THIS COLLECTION IS NOT.SOME IMPORTANT TRACKS ARE CRAPPY REMIXES THAT NEVER MADE IT.MOST ARE NOT THE GOOD MIXES. IF YOU HAVE THE ORIGINAL ""MOBY DICK"" COLORED VINYL OF ""DISCO KICKS"" HANG ON TO IT...THE CD COLLECTIONS I'VE HEARD SO FAR FROM BOYSTOWN GANG HAVE CHEESY MIXES OF ""DISCO KICKS"".I AM SURPRISED AT ""UNIDISC"" YOU CAN USUALLY COUNT ON THEM BUT I GUESS EVERYONE MAKES A MISTAKE NOW AND THEN. THEY SHOULD HAVE NOT RELEASED THIS CD."
378474,1,Very Disappointing,"This book leaves much to be desired. It is all in black and white, which makes deciphering the screen shots very difficult. The problem is worsened by poor quality graphics. When the author says to click on certain icons or buttons, it is almost impossible to see what he means.I've read many computer how-to books and this one was by far the hardest to follow."
378478,1,Not always accurate,"Try to find a better one. My oven takes about 8 to 10 minutes to reach 400 this thermometer takes 15-20 minutes to reach 350 it shows my oven is not hot enough even though food is burning, so I know it is not accurate. I have never seen a thermometer take so long to register a temperature. Its also a pain cause it doesn't stand up without constantly falling over, & hanging it always falls off the hook with little vibration."
378492,1,Don't buy it to learn about Huntington's Disease,This is a young readers' book about growing up and finding oneself. Huntington's is only a side issue. The prose is often stilted and the characters one dimensional. The whole issue of heredity is confusing. Bent's mother has Huntington's and she is a second cousin to Bent's father. There is no known history of Huntington's in the family. The writer makes the statement that no one knows how the gene is transmitted. Simply not true. It has long been known that the gene is dominant and offspring have a 50% change of inheriting the disease. What was the author's point in making the parent's second cousins in a book supposedly about a hereditary disease?
378514,1,Very Hard to Use!!,I bought this machine because I'm pregnant and I needed a safe alternative to the dangers of walking outside and walking in the heat this summer. The product description fails to mention that the inclines are both very steep. I can't even stay on this treadmill without hanging on to the rails for dear life!! As soon as I start walking I feel like I need to run to keep up with the machine. This was a total waste of money.
378537,1,yet another guide to perpetuating an offensive cult,"since of course there is no such thing as messianic judaism, merely christian cults oriented towards converting jews by disguising christianity with some jewish words and rituals like 'yeshiva', such a book is merely a how-to guide to perpetuating an offensive cult and a philosophy of converting jews that legitimate christian groups including the catholic church have long since abandoned.my advice when it comes to Messianic Xtianity or any other cult is....DON'T DRINK THE KOOL AID"
378593,1,Not what I ordered,"I ordered a Red Wall Phone, and received a beige wall phone. Its not what I ordered, and when I wanted to return/exchange the phone, the seller basically told me tough. So now I'm stuck with a phone, that I will not use and is tucked away in a closet somewhere."
378615,1,Sucks if you are expect Fallout. Fun if you like RTS.,Its a RTS. Not a RPG. And a not very fun one at that. All you do is run and gun. It's bad.
378724,1,expecting much better,"I read the first three books of the series. Thank goodness I knew what was going on or this would have been a very confusing movie. But that is among the least of its problems. I almost walked out as Gilyard's character was ""realizing"" his situation. His acting is not convincing at all (I was expecting better of him) but I don't know if he could have helped it as his lines were not written as if coming from a man in his position. Few of the characters seem three dimensional, Buck being a surprising exception. Also, Carpathia's accent rarely sounds East European, but perhaps it will pass for the unsuspecting. The portrayal of Jews in the movie is not done particularly well either. The most prominent Jewish character, Chiam, is a dupe who is portrayed as a starry-eyed and naive. Also, anyone who watches this should be aware that there are MANY different interpretations of the prophecies concerning the rapture. So, please read, and think, about them for yourself."
378816,1,Junk,There were scratches in the metal and slight specks of rust. The wood handle broke after only a few uses. A complete waste of $25.
378832,1,unhappy,I thought I was getting a white dresser. I know it said antique white but the picture showed it as a very white. Other web sites viewed their off/antique white with an off white color. The color of the dresser I received is almost tan. I feel the dresser I viewed on your web site was misleading. I have been trying to return the item for three weeks.
378934,1,Bunk,"This book is of the worst kind. It's author's credentials would lead one to believe that this is a scientific study. It is the most subjective, self absorbed accumulation of drivel that I've ever seen. I would have no objection to this, had it not been promoted as science. There are NO substantial or verifiable facts in the entire book. Please don't waste your time or money."
378947,1,supposed to be 0 stars,"i never watch friends, it is a piece of crap, not funny, not original and the only reason i'm writing here is an outlet to get my opinions out. I'm glad it's off the air, it's such a dog turd, if you want see what a real sitcom is supposed to be, watch a rerun of Seinfeld."
379004,1,Fluffy,"On the plus side, this book was cheap and a quick read. However, I found very little tangible, useful information in it. Seemed to be mostly common sense stuff."
379061,1,Peace Sells...But Which Is Worse?,"(the 1986 original)Jeez, I don't know who sounds worse, Mark Slaughter or Dave Mustaine. Both of 'em sound like they've either had their vocal chords cut, or been huffing on the helium too much. In fact, Slaughter sounds like a little girl while Mustaine sounds like Donald Duck flapping his wings.Quack Quack Quack... Quack Quack Quack... Quack Quack Quack...Decent riffs can't save a turkey like Megadeath. At least Dave's vocals have improved over the years, but not on this Disney cartoon."
379097,1,Definitely not leather,"This journal is a big disappointment. The design on the paper cover imitates a design that would've been used on leather...but dont assume this is actually a leather journal like I did. The design on the journal is ""old leather"" but it's not actually a leather bound journal. It's a very small journal with wide spaced lines in it that might be great to carry around in a purse for quick notes or something. The journal is soo small that it is for short time use. There are much better journals out there."
379121,1,Half way works...,"The headblade worked well on HALF of my head. I have to admit that this was one of the smoothest and closest shaves that I've ever had.When I needed to transition to the back of my head... well, that's where the problems began.The ""car"" feels a little unbalances, so as I rolled over to the back of my head the wheels lifted off my head carving a HUGE painful divot into the top of my head.This happened not once, but twice.Good concept... just doesn't work well for me."
379248,1,HORRIBLE Product and WORSE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!,Don't buy peg-perego their customer service is horrible!! I will NEVER buy from them again!!
379284,1,"Wonderful printer, but cannot use on many computers.",I have this printer and love it. Or used to love it. I just got a new computer which runs Windows XP. You cannot use this printer with a new computer because Canon has arbitrarily decided not to release printer drivers. Their nonsensical stated reason is that the printer does not support USB (universal serial bus). Windows XP could support this printer. It recognizes the printer as new hardware over the parallel printer bus and asks for a driver. Since Canon has decided not to support Canon products there is no usable driver. Canon has only released Windows 95/98 drivers.Do not buy this printer unless you are willing to keep around a Windows 98 computer with which to use it.I've bought my last Canon product.
379309,1,not even worth 1 star!,"this is horrrrrible! my daughter LOVES anything to do with Peter Pan and Captain Hook (she's 2) but this couldn't even keep her attention for a moment, much less mine. I always liked the movie (the original that is) but this is soo incredibly slow that it won't keep any child entertained for any period of time. it's just very dull and (unless you've just never seen the original) the artwork is a bit poor. Sorry, if you do like it."
379316,1,"This is an ""Essential""?","As much as I love Doc Watson, I fail to understand nor to appreciate this album. How can a Doc Watson Essential album exist without ""Tennessee Stud""? Go figure!"
379319,1,This is a great series but there was something wrong with the production of the DVDs I received.,"The series is great, Amazon is great, the price was great; however, be forewarned: the production of these DVDs from A&E; was very bad. Several of the DVDs in each season had a glitch, i.e., the sound/dialogue didn't match up with the actors' speech/movements. It was out of sync. We sent it back for a replacement which Amazon was great about, and the same thing happened again but just to the first season of DVDs, so it's hit or miss. It's a shame because this was a gift for Christmas. By the way, there is nothing wrong with my DVD player. These were the only DVDS that this has ever happened to out of all the movies we own.I'm really disappointed that A&E; didn't have quality control on these."
379340,1,barely visible,"This laser is a cool idea, battery powered and small enough to fit in your pocket. However, there really isn't any reason to buy this because even in the darkest area of my basement i could barely see this from more than 2 feet away.I tried using fog to see the laser ""stream"" as well (the same amount of fog and darkness really brings my other laser projecter to life, and you can see the beams of light which is an amazing feat for $30 - [...]So the laser inside is quite dim, or underpowered, im not a pro, but when i compare to my other projector, there is just nothing in THIS product that anyone would really want."
379367,1,Makes more of a mess than it cleans!,"Ugh!!! This vacuum sucks...or rather doesn't suck! The first few times I used it, it seemed to work okay, though it was not effective on our hardwood floors. It has only gotten worse...Now, rather than sucking up dirt, it just spits it back out spraying dirt in ALL directions. I am now searching for a new vacuum cleaner after having this one for just a few months!Do not buy this vacuum...unless you enjoy purchasing a new one every few months!"
379379,1,"not reccommended for infants, not accurate","I was ""told"" by doctor that the ear scan thermometers are not very accurate for infants, and found this to be true. You can take the temperature of the baby three times in a row, and get a different reading, each time. We use a standard digital thermomter under the armpit, or recatally, for accuracy. This item is overpriced, and when it comes to the critical neccessity of having an accurate temperature to determine illness in an infant, it is just too much to chance. I have heard these are more consistent in toddlers, so save it for when baby gets older. We are sticking with the tried and true.Don't waste your money or time, in fact, ask your doctor, they never reccommend these to babies under a year."
379446,1,This Truck isn't built to play with only display in a glass case,This product didn't meet our expectations and I wish we didn't purchase it. It broke within minutes after our grandchild started playing with it.
379558,1,Extremely One-sided,"Continuously puts down males & says that all males are out to get a female into bed, ex.: ""If a guy tells you that he loves you, he is lying. He just wants to get you into bed."" Another example of being biased is tickling. If you are dating, tickling is only a way of ""getting the blood flowing."" If you aren't dating however, it is ok. Rubbing a girls back is a way to ""feel a girl's bra straps."" If you are truly a Christian, you wouldn't critisize on a biased scale, and you would give some guys credit. Not all guys are sex-driven hormone-raging freaks. I think Justin should stop trying to get all the females to be on his side & give his own gender some respect."
379575,1,What should be a nail gun,"I was looking for a nail gun that doesn't require air. And after buying this one, i still haven't found one. It can't drive 1 1/4 nails in hardwood at all. maybe a 1/4 inch. What good is that? It did drive a 1 1/4 inch nail in SOFT pine a inch. Still, what good is that? I am sending this back. Everything else about the gun is ok. It seems to me it needs alot more power. This gun is no good for what i need. I gave it 2 stars only cause of the way it's built. and an effort to stanley for trying. NEEDS MORE POWER!!!!!!!!"
379590,1,SAVE 90 MINUTES OF YOUR LIFE!,"What a waste of film. I'm not a prude and can handle fart jokes with the best of them, but an ENTIRE MOVIE of fart jokes? If it's funny at all, it quits being funny very early in the film.If your idea of a good time is watching fart jokes, uni-brow women, or ""fat mamas"", than this flick is for you.For the rest of us, I suggest picking another movie...ANY movie.Sure, I knew what to expect when watching this one, but it didn't have me laughing at all.I like the Blue Collar Comedy group, so thought I'd give this one a try. BIG mistake.Save your time.Save your money.Save your life.'Nuff said."
379595,1,Junk,I guess this was too cheap to be a quality connector. It snapped in half as I was trying to tighten it. Before I broke it the picture was horrible which is why I was trying to tighten it. Do not buy!
379600,1,Can't believe I waited a year for this crap,This game will not run on windows ME. You will need something equivelant or better than big blue. You might then be able to get atari graphics.One big stink.
379609,1,NOT a Gluten Free Cookie!,"It's so deceiving to call it wheat free. It is not a gluten free fig bar cookie.So all you Celiac's and Gluten tolerance peeps, read your labels.I wish Newmans and Fig Newtons would make their products Gluten Free so we can enjoy them. However.... There is HOPE.Please check out the Jovial Gluten Free Cookie! We are Fig Newton Lovers here and the Jovial product won us over.We can feel good again about eating a fig cookie gluten free. Check out Jovials!"
379617,1,poor sizing,"Recently purchased from amazon.Needed waiste size 35 and thought these would fit the bill.They must use a differant size chart than all others,much to tight and very thin material,poor workmanship.Also purchaced two pair Riggs workwear jeans same size and very well satisfied.Perfect fit,good workmanship and top material.Would give these a 5star.The Wranglers a reluctant 2."
379623,1,cloeman barks and andrew harvey are the experts on rumi,"this work is derivative of others' works. If you want, read the authors who have translated from the original, have devoted a lifetime study to Rumi's work, with a diverse choice of words in translations, each translation revealing more and different from the one before. To know the real romance and the crippling character of Rumi as well as his divine interests, read books also by people who come from Rumi's part of the world. Zwieg, though admiring Rumi, writes in a New Age tone that may be fine for some. But for people who are interested in the deeper meanings of Rumi's work, it's not in pop psychology, but in religious studies at depth. Being enamoured of a poet is sweet. But, there is far more to give to understanding or giving critique and insights in depth."
379672,1,Another Serb nationalist,Moderate Serb nationalism is the consolation prize one expects when looking for dissent from that camp. When a Serb author shows a willingness to be the first to stop making excuses and to disavow fully genocidal Serb nationalism (what a hard thing to do!) that we will have a book worth reading. This isn't it.
379710,1,Konica Minolta is leaving the camera business,"People, BEWARE of buying high tech items from a company that just declared it's going out of business. You will be left holding the bag if anything goes wrong. Paper specs are worthless if there is no support. Further, BEFORE a company finally gurgles its last, it's typical for quality control to fall through the floor.I'm deeply shocked Amazon.com is not being more forthright. You are buying leftovers from a failed business. BE CAREFUL. Check out search engines for news. Until some sort of reliable user support is created, this is an orphan product."
379716,1,Not Worth It,"This book, although well intentioned, is not worth the money. The information is so old that in one part (on organizational computer programs) my husband and I were laughing out loud because they were talking about technology from almost 20 years ago. That being said, the book does have a couple of good ideas if you can get around the rest of the 'dated' material.If you are looking for doula business advice, a much better option would be to take the Business Doula course that is offered by Childbirth International. I both read this book and took the CBI course and the CBI course is up do date - just started this year and has everything 'good' that's in this book plus tons more."
379752,1,Very hard to understand,I've read a lot of seriesbooks in my life. This series is one of the worst. Very different and strange. I can't even finish the book because It's very boring. If you guys love this series go for it.
379781,1,Big Mistake Buying It,"I wrote down Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan about 5 years ago. Apparently I had heard one by this artist back then that appealed to me. Well, I finally decided I'd waited long enough to get it, and so, even though my money was tight, I said, ""What the heck; I'm going to finally get it!"" I couldn't wait to hear it. Boy, was I disappointed! It's been a BIG mistake! I am now going to return it. Maybe one of the others is good, but I definitely would not recommend this one!!"
379782,1,poor service,I ordered and paid for this product over a month ago. Still have not received furminator. I have written two letters in last 10 days and have received no reply from anyone.
379783,1,what a waste of money!,"Terrible product...I wanted to beleive that it was a really good one like we see on Tv..but once again....TV products usually = bad quality.Of course it doesn't work at all, and it's really uncomfortable to use!You have to be really careful if you dont want to hurt your pet while using this product!"
379799,1,Horror!,I used this on my Cairn terrier mix. It seemed to work to strip the undercoat - but when finished I realized that it had also stripped a lot of her outer coat. What a nightmare!
379855,1,Furminator,"Product is what it says it is. I personally don't like it, the blade cuts hair as it removes the undercoat. The blade gets clogged with hair with one brush stroke."
379868,1,Healthy Kitchen,The cook book was very disapointing. The only good thing about it was Andrew Weils tips that were scattered throughout the book. It should of been much better.
379901,1,women's garden gloves,"I have tiny hands and need small gloves which are hard to find in stores. I ordered these in a small size. They fit, but the cuffs are MUCH too short, it is like trying to pull up pants that are too short . Women's Work gloves are much better, but they also cost more and you can't find them here. Too bad."
379904,1,Complete Rip-off,"Beware. The picture is deceptive. What you get is 1 pipe (not a package) that retails for $3.59 elsewhere. 400% above retail. Furthermore, while it's not labeled when it arrives, it appears to Missouri Meerschaum's cheapest model, the Missouri Pride. It's basically a disposable pipe which is why a package of them makes some sense. Save your money. Go elsewhere and get one of Missouri Meerschaum's better pipes for half of what you'll spend here. Or, for that matter, go elsewhere and buy 4 of these for the same money."
379905,1,average gun,"this gun is ok, for the beginner, but, if your really interested in a good gun, find something better, because i've owned and used much better. with a .12 gram bb, the shots tend to curve right after about 20 feet.the prive was only ten bucks, but i def. could have found better."
379911,1,Terrible!,"I knew it wouldn't be like the book, but they changed the story completely. The acting was horrible. There wasn't a good actor / actress in the whole thing. The only thing that was good about it was the scenery, and that wasn't that great."
379988,1,mediocre,This has alot of common knowledge information that you can find on the internet. The workouts are just a compilation of different weight workouts without saying which is better for boxing. The running advice is very good though
380012,1,A sad waste of time and money,"No time or inclination to go into all the problems with this book, but I bought it based on all the great reviews and I have to admitt that I have been completely duped and other readers deserve to be warned. The dialog is stilted, the plot is tired, and the writing just seems so self-concious. The characters were distinctly unendearing, a very bad thing in a romance. The attempts at humor fell flat. I'm sure Caskie is a nice lady, but I won't buy another book written by her. Save your time and money. I'm glad I have some other books to move on to."
380102,1,Fans can never be objective...,We've heard these songs a million times b 4...nice...but forgettable.
380105,1,This CD is Horrible don't buy it!,"This CD was not as good as i thought it would be. ""I Wanna Love You Forever"" is an okay, but annoying song and its the best one on there. But the rest of the cd is horrible!"
380132,1,Don't waste your money on the unipack 12' ocean house,"I ordered the 12"" unipack ocean house for my grandson's birthday. When I opened the package, it was so badly bent out of shape that it wouldn't even stand upright on it's own. When shipped, it was literally bent and jammed into a box that was too small. Since I wanted my grandson to have it on his birthday, I worked and worked with it poking small towels throught the holes trying to get it back to it's original shape. I was finally able to get it to stand up, but it still had dents and creases that were there for good. If this was some cheap toy, I wouldn't complain; but for $22 I expect the seller to take enough time to find a box that fits. The small stuffed animals were cute, but next time I would order from another company."
380156,1,unfair,the item my son received was defective and will cost more to fix than the original $125 spent on the item. This was for a school project and he can't even use it. Plus as a widow I am now out $125.
380158,1,"I agree, shutter problems ruin an otherwise great camera","I bought this camera brand new and took it on 2 trips to Eastern Europe in 2002, 2003 for about 2 weeks each. I liked all aspects of this camera. During the next years I only shot about a roll each year and kept the camera stored and safe in a special cabinet. I went back to Eastern Europe in 2010 and the shutter froze on the very first shot. Will cost 160 dollars to repair, according to the local USA camera shop. So, I have to agree with other customers that shutter problems marr an otherwise appealing camera."
380176,1,Waste of money,"Bob Oschack's so-called comedy just isn't that funny. Don't waste your money on this racist-themed comedian since he has to resort to crude humor that makes you cringe rather than laugh. His humor hinges on denigrating gays, ethnic and racial groups, religions, and just about any segment that is vulnerable. Isn't that what the Klan does?"
380187,1,Half Full/Half Empty,"I still recall the excitement I felt two years ago in anticipation of what appeared to be a superlative compilation of some of Keef's best cuts from his distinguished, albeit underappreciated discography. Although the Keef Hartley Band deserves a box set, I felt that at least a solid compilation will suffice for those of us who loved this band for 30+ years. WRONG!!!!! What we have here is a travesty. The production values (at least in my Mooncrest CD) are an outrage. Granted, this was recorded in live performances. But, be warned. Unless you are the most hardcore of fans (and I am one too) this rip-off CD will only further exacerbate your sense of frustration that one of the greatest British Blues groups of the 60's remains the best kept secret (along with Love Sculpture) of the genre."
380250,1,NIRA INTENSE IMPORT DRAG RACING,ALTHOUGH I PURCHASED IT AT ANOTHER RETAILER I FIGURED I OWED AMAZON A BUYER BEWARE ON THIS ONE. CONFIGURING THIS GAME IS A NIGHTMARE.. ENGINE SOUNDS ARE MORE LIKE WARBLING MUSIC THAN TRUE ENGINE SOUNDS. IT CAN NOT BE MADE TO WORK WITH A COMMON THRUSTMASTER WHEEL. I TRYED TO CONTACT THE MANUFACTURE BY PHONE AND COULD NOT GET THROUGH. AFTER 3 NON ANSWERED E MAILS I RETURNED THE SOFTWARE TO THE STORE . STICK WITH ELECTRONIC ARTS <NEED FOR SPEED> OR PAPIRUS <NASCAR RACING 3> IF YOUR LOOKING FOR GREAT EASY TO USE SOFTWARE WITH HIGH ENTERTAINMENT VALUE...WHEN THEY DEVELOP A DRAG RACING SIMULATOR I WILL BUY IT. THEY HAVE HAD PLENTY OF TIME AT BETHESDA TO MAKE THIS ONE RIGHT AND HAVE FAILED.
380256,1,Bad Product,"The idea is great but this product is implemented very poorly. Problems:1. buggy, it crashes all the time. Reminds me of the good old Windows 3.1 days. Very very annoying.2. Codec Support is pretty substandard. Many videos in my collection can't be opened.I was willing to tolerate #2 but #1 sealed it's fate. It's going back to Amazon in a couple of days."
380270,1,Good price but not sensitive enough,Purchased this mic at Walmart for a good price but had to return it because it wasn't sensitive enough. Used with a mixing input on boombox. Had to turn gain almost all the way up to get any usable signal.
380311,1,Could have been better,"Instead of reviewing which most people have already done and I agree somewhat, what I don't agree with is someone on here said the live version of ""I just want to make love to you"" was the better known version, this is far from the truth. The studio version of the song WAS the semi-hit, NOT the live version which is why radio always plays the studio version. Also, someone mentioned that Rhino needs to release the entire catalog..people, Rhino did that back in 1990, in fact, all are still available except ""Night Shift"" (for some reason lord only knows why) but they have been released which also brings me to this, the ""Wounded Bird"" label is in fact re-releasing AND remastering the entire Foghat catalog. See, you got all bent out of shape for nothing!!!!!!"
380356,1,Very Small,"I'm sure these work well for a toddler's glasses, but they're tiny.

380414,1,Not for small pills,I chose this for use with a cat. The pills have been cut in half and this tube was too big to handle the pill. Not to be used with any small pills. You would have to have Horse pills with this pill dispenser.
380500,1,Never Got it,I checked the mail for two weeks it never came.. Istopped checking after that. You guys did get the money. I should have goy my product.
380545,1,Save your money,"One should not ""judge a book by its cover"". If I had seen the cover and the glaring spelling mistake I would not have bought this book. But since I did and I read it let me say that this is a book for first time line supervisors. This is not about management or leadership, this is about conformity within a large organization. This is manual, not a book to challenge the brain."
380584,1,Lost all my data,"Windows initially recognized. 1 day later, tried to access to find that Windows continuously had problems writing to drive, and all data on drive has been lost. Also was incompatible with my other computer -a Compaq laptop."
380592,1,Bad Drive,"I had this drive for a little over 6 months and it failed on me. I was using it to run portable apps from my various computers. I have had drives fail before, but never this quickly. Considering the cost of the drive, I was very disappointed. Kingston offered to send a replacement, but that did not help me to get back all of the data I lost. I would stay away from this drive and buy a different brand."
380610,1,40 W or smaller,"Excuse me? What's with the description on Amazon: Use 60W bulb? The instructions on both the package and the lamp say: Use 40 Wattage or smaller/Excuse me,eh, was I tricked? I need a lamp for studying, and so I need to use at least 60W bulb. Now I got this lamp, what should I do with it now?"
380612,1,Better than nothing,"Not as expected. Very small ""tools"" packaged in a 3x5 inch box. Poor quality. Slightly better than having nothing. Return policy not fully explained before purchase. Money will not be returned; receive a gift certificate."
380661,1,A dissapointment,"Although it has a few promising traits, this was a very bad first attempt for a next-gen Yu-Gi-Oh! game, the gameplay is repetitive and tediously slow. Your stuck with three minor monsters for a long time, and there are no cut-scenes to speak of. Over all, this makes the sims look like an action game. My advice? Only buy this if you have A LOT of time on your hands, and you don't get bord easily."
380722,1,Discs do not work,"Very disappointing seller and product! Many of the discs in The Sopranos-complete series do not work. I have tried them in several DVD players to no avail. Since I have a life and was unable to watch 30 discs in 90 days, the seller refused to allow me to return the discs ( I contacted them in the 4th month). Additionally, I looked around on the web and all of the pictures of this set show black discs. The discs I received are silver....... Will NEVER use this seller again."
380811,1,Why is the price of the MAC Version 5 time the price of the PC version?,"What the tile says.Shame on Amazon, fix this please. I would buy this game but not at this price."
380889,1,Wish I could return this one,This might be a good video if we could see it. My VCR auto tracks so we saw the tractors but not the trains or trucks. this one will collect dust on the shelf.
380970,1,Just too much!,First it was $11 then $14 now it going to $19. Time to move on. Wash Post here I come.
381014,1,Got one use out of it.,"I'll start by saying ""you get what you pay for"". Except for a few parts, it's totally made of plastic, so the depth gauge didn't stay secured. As a result, I got uneven depth routes. The screws on the bottom of the three metal posts vibrated loose mid route. You can't tighten them without fear of cracking the plastic base (which I did -- and I didn't over tighten either). Once the base cracked at the screws, it's done. It's on it's way to recycling! Great idea, but bad design."
381032,1,racist pulp journalism,"Racist and anti-abolitionist diatribes ruin what could have been an excellent story. The writing is quick-paced, and reads like Tom Clancy,(for good or ill) particularly with his ability to weave several plot threads together and build them towards the inevitable climax at Harper's Ferry. I'm trying to learn more about the secret six, but all this book did was point out how history has been rewritten by the losers - the confederates. Slavery was the fault of John Brown and the people of Boston? I don't think so."
381059,1,Acceptable in the 80s,"Very very disappointed. The projection used on the map is absolutely nonsensical. Worse, the map was produced in 1999. It still has such extinct countries as Yugoslavia on it. Waste of money."
381076,1,Superstitious hope,"Basically a book about arranging one's environment in ways that would bring one good fortune.According to the author, traditional Chinese belief includes the belief that well-being is governed by three kinds of luck that emanated respectively from heaven, earth, and oneself. Heavenly luck is difficult to change, but feng shui ""wisdom"" shows one how to change the other two elements in one's favour.Chapter titles are -- Wealth Feng Shui- Prosperity Numbers and Good Fortune Symbols- Individual Wealth Orientations- Feng Shui for Business and Commerce- Corporate Feng ShuiTo my mind the sources of many superstitions have some or other elements of truth; alas, this material is not the source. At best the book's material shows one that one's cluttered and disorganised environment reflects a like mind. One might also live in hope of gaining wealth from the practice.____________________________________________"
381079,1,Extremely Disappointing,"This appears to be a book that wanted to capitalize on two things--the popularity of both the Titanic and Sherlock Holmes. Unfortunately, it does neither of them justice. Seil does not have a handle on Holmes'character, and the Great Detective comes across as a shadow of his former self. Entrusting a fledgling agent (and Irene Adler's daughter, no less--OY!) with such an important mission is unrealistic. And, if all else fails and the plot runs dry (which it frequently does), throw in some trivia about the Titanic to fill in space. Neither Sherlockians or Titanic afficianados will like this book. At least this one does not."
381199,1,it died,"Worked for what I wanted <ventrillo> for a week or so, then started getting a lot of static and noise with my mic.Found a different solution to my problem."
381214,1,Good for 20 Days,"Somehow I broke the headphone jack in my laptop (so that it only plays out one earphone). Rather than buying a new headset, I bought this little thing, so I could plug my good headset in via USB.It did what it was supposed to do--the sound quality was not stellar, but I was mostly using it for conference calls so I didn't mind much. I did disable my internal sound card, but I still got background static once in awhile.Then, 20 days after I first installed it on my computer, it completely quit working. The red light stopped lighting up, and no sound would play. I tried it in three USB slots and two different computers, my husband even took it apart to see if something had come loose, but no dice. For two bucks I can't really complain, but since it only worked for 20 days, I'm going to suck it up and buy a USB headset now."
381240,1,Outsmart your Cancer,"My husband believed in this book, the disk of people who swore by this product and that they are cancer free and the product, protocel, which he purchased and only got to use 1/2 the bottle before he died 9-26-12. I didn't believe. I don't think you should either do your own research on protocel with your doctor."
381385,1,Chicken-$%#@@*&^%,"The title says it all except for the musical portion of this poor excuse of a film. I did laugh occasionally though. Mostly from the stupidity. Unless you collect really stupid zombie films, don't bother with this one."
381410,1,Really bad fit.,"I can't comment on the sound cause I didn't listen. I'm returning them cause they don't fit my head. (My head is not unusually small as far as I know.) The headband is NOT adjustable -- unforgivable for headphones in this price range. There's not even a basic click-click adjustment that one finds in the cheapest $2 headphones. There is an ""automatic"" tension band, but this works very poorly, and the headphones end up hanging very loosely on my head. My plan was to use these while walking on the treadmill, but I think they'd slide off pretty darn fast. If you have a normal or small head and plan to move around a lot with these, you might want to think twice..."
381412,1,"Never Worked, Would not hold charge","I bought this for a gift for my husband and it never worked. Tried to contact seller for exchange but never recieved communication back. Recieved orders to Iraq so it seemed to much of a hastle to deal with them. Cheap, just sucked up the loss. Will get a name brand next time."
381425,1,the first book...but not the last,"This is a banal collection. Scattered, disorganized, lacking vision. He was able to tune his efforts in other books, but they never got better. I'm not sure why he keeps getting published, because I just didn't like this stuff very much."
381447,1,Defective Item,"Item exactly what I wanted. Then it leaked and the company would not replace. It's leaking more now and I try to fix it with clear duct tape but there's white rice looking seeds all over. Rating system is misrepresenttive. According to my caluculations, Nature Way deserves a 2.6 rating on 1-5 scale."
381502,1,most horrible movie ever,"ok. im dead serious when i say this... this is the worst movie ive ever seen. ever. no exageratation. this one is right at the bottom of the list resting just underneith darkness falls and jeepers creepers. its sooooo cheesy. i mean... seriously... its got a nice setup... your asking yourself ""does this child even exist?"" etc... it wouldve been a nice psychologocal thriller... but instead? they go for the cheesiest possible ending ive ever seen. ill spare details in case anybody cares about spoilers etc... but honestly... this movie is not worth a glance at the cover let alone a rental or purchase."
381530,1,what a bunch of garbage,what a bunch of garbage this product was complete garbage and does not work. i tried pullinjg the radio out of my 2005 vw passat haa after 20min of bending and cracking the keys i gave up and used a torque bit screwdriver and took off the radio panel will never spend money on these garbage tools again.
381531,1,Rubbish,"I was finally able to remove the radio from my 2002 VW Golf, but no thanks to these tools which are awkward, flimsy and just not suitable for the job. My radio has 4 release clips, so I needed 2 sets of these tools. Only one of the 4 securely engaged and released the clip, the other 3 failed to engage and then became stuck. After a frustrating hour of pushing and pulling with screwdrivers and other tools I removed the radio and then spent another 20 minutes disengaging the stuck keys from the radio clips. Choose another brand."
381536,1,DO NOT PURCHASE THESE GLOVES,"They are being mislabeled as a smaller size then they actually are! I ordered a large having owned the exact pair once before. The cardboard the gloves are packaged to are marked with a L for large however the sticking inside the glove are clearly an XL. Not sure if they are trying to dump extra product, but buyer beware! Gloves are excellent but best purchasing directly from Ironclad."
381587,1,Lame. Not worth your money.,"My amazon record shows that I actually bought this book. I had forgotten, and 'returned' it to the public library, which is where I wish I'd gotten it to begin with. The story is strained and not very informative. Great math books worth buying to read to your child include Math Trek, Math Trek 2, G is for Google, and especially, the Number Devil - reading great math books has been wonderful fun for my family - but not Sir Cumference."
381640,1,poor quality,"Pool would not stay inflated and had to be returned. I would not be recommending this pool to anyone. Don,t co unt on this product."
381724,1,You'll pray for this book to end.,"I shudder every time I read someone comparing this ineptly written piece to the captivating ""Sophie's World"". Yes, the concept is similar, but that is the alpha and omega of this muddle about the world's religions. Clement's characters are completely inconsistent (sometimes you can't tell if supposedly 14-year-old Theo should be wearing a diaper or a condom), unbelievable and unlikeable. Her thumbnail sketches of Judaism and Catholicism are filled with errors, so it made me distrust any of her takes on other faiths as well. Her finale of bringing all the different religions' mouthpieces together at the end is more like a community theatre curtain call than a believable ending. Two stars for her laudable goal with this book, and zero for her childish and condescending writing."
381758,1,Quantrill was not from Missouri,He was from Ohio a northern state. The author needs to get his facts straight. Quit the hero worship.Canal Dover Ohio
381858,1,World's most concise plot summary,"Life didn't go how I planned. I got cancer. My career tanked. I had disappointments. Good people have bad things happen to them. Many religious people behave badly. Many formal religions are in conflict and therefore some of them are obviously wrong. Therefore there is no god. And by the way, I am smarter than the rest of you.There's a reason they call them ""believers"", not ""know-ers"". Anyone who gives an answer other than ""I don't know"" or ""I believe there is"" when asked about the existence of God is an arrogant fool. They didn't think there were germs 200 years ago. After all, there was no ""proof""."
381869,1,Anti-Religious and moreover Anti-Semitic!,"I am seriously interested in religious subjects and thus I bought this book assuming it would offer an interesting novel based on a religious theme. I was very disappointed. I am Jewish and like most Jews very tolerant towards other religions. This author however chooses to accuse the religious believers of this world to be the source of all its problems, blatantly ignoring all the good things religion has brought to humanity. Generalizing Jews as greedy and terrorists, Muslims as uneducated and Christians as hypocrits will not improve anything, if that is what the author cared for?At least one thing is more or less accurate in this book: Only a misguided Atheist such as Peter Egli could come to such a ridiculous solution for this world's problems. When will people finally understand that only Faith and Prayer will save us!"
381886,1,Thinly written,"Robertson obviously is a legend an innovater in the hedge fund space, but the author rarely gives you any true original insight. I respect Robertson for what he did, and his investing returns, but unfortunately with over 10,000 hedge funds in existence, a lot of the mispricings he traded on are gone. Many of his proteges have gone on to produce great returns, but I think a lot of their success is due to the Tiger Brand. One only has to look at Dwight Andersen from Ospraie, whose fund blew out in the greatest bull market in commodites this century. Ospraie couldnt even beat the indices.. The Goldman Sachs Commodity and CRB, nice job if you can get it right, underperform in your industry and make 11 figures."
381899,1,broken sticks,"There are 6 colors, 2 of each color. The box of sticks didn't come wrapped in bubble wrap or anything. It was just thrown in with the other items so that only 5 sticks made it intact; 7 broke in 2 or 3 pieces (though 6 of these at least 1/2 of stick left). I don't think its worth buying chalk from Amazon again even if the chalk is colorful and bright."
381978,1,Parts included have changed.,"Well, a simple install got complicated when between the separate install kit and the package here, I still didn't have all the parts needed. I even bought a 2nd install kit locally and was still without all the needed parts. (Sidebar: THe first install kit came with a VHS tape for install, useless in today's world for most of us, and the second one had NO install video of any type.)After a day of runaround from Honeywell, the item was returned to Amazon. It appears Honeywell no longer includes the sail switch in the kit, even though it's listed in the materials list and is essential to have a switch (or equivalent switching device) to make this work! It's now sold separately. Very disappointed in Honeywell."
381995,1,The 3 hour diet,"I wasn't pleased with this book at all. Mr.Cruise claims there is no calorie counting on this diet, when in fact that is not true. Yes he encourages eating every 3 hours and uses a visual method, but bottom line, you must count the calories. He also spends much of the book focusing on his success stories as well as promoting his website, which you must pay to be a part of in order to get additional meal suggestions and support.Overall, I feel decieved and very disappointed by this book and Mr. Cruise."
382003,1,Not Grandma's favorite,Glad I read this before giving it to my grand daughter. A pet cat captured by goblins and roasting over an open fire did not appeal to me and I am sure it would have given her nighmares for weeks. One doesn't have to have a PHD in child development to know that kids do not like stories where animals don't win out in the end. These goblins are also very cruel to an injured griffin - not character traits I wish exemplified in any child.
382026,1,Yesterday's Heroes,"""Saturday Night"" turned into Sunday morning rather rapidly for these plaid lads from Tartania following their American debut on Howard Cosell's ""Saturday Night"" TV show. Save for a few further Top 40 entries (most notable being ""I Only Want To Be With You"") on the US charts, the Bay City Rollers soon found themselves on Saturday morning TV (shades of the Monkees!), and it wasn't too long before the Bay City Rollers were a distant memory in the cut-out bins. Buffered by exceptional sound, and the presence of single versions, ""Definitive Collection"" comes about as close as most stateside fans would want to get to a 70's UK fad that had crested well before ""Saturday Night."""
382052,1,NEVER RECIEVED THIS BOOK,"I contacted the bookseller, and they simply said they had already shipped this book. I ordered the book in early January of 2007 for my college semester of January to May 2007. The book is very detailed, and was required for one of my college classes that semester. When I never recieved it, I had to keep borrowing a copy from my campus library. I was EXTREMELY dissatisfied with the way in which this matter was handled, as I was NEVER even given a refund on the price I had paid for this book."
382058,1,not stainless steel interior,"I'm quite disappointed after I opened the package. The interior of the mug is plastic, not stainless steel at all. Misleading description and I have to return them."
382066,1,Not at ALL what I was expecting!!!,"I ordered this set because I LOVED Tom Green in ""Freddy Got Fingered"". I remembered he had a show on MTV some number of years ago, but couldn't really remember it so I figured this DVD set would be packed full of laughs for hours on end. I was SOOOOOO wrong!I got through about 8 episodes and had barely cracked a smile. There is no real basis to his comedy expect him standing in a public place yelling, making obscene noises, or rolling around on the ground. (I think someone else wrote almost the exact same thing on a previous review)."
382079,1,Complete Nonsense,"Ever hear of the story the Emperor's clothes? In my opinion everyone must just be saying this book is good because someone else said so. Some other reviewer called this nothing but a ""mind dump"" and I cannot think of a better term for it. Nothing relates or builds on anything. I found none of it useful for improvising or theory. I've been playing/studying for 35 years."
382256,1,"BIG disappointment, falls flat","With all the 5-star reviews on this book I thought it would be the perfect present for my friend's baby show. Not so. I was SORELY disappointed with this book to the extent that I can't bring myself to give this as a gift.Certainly humor is subjective but I found this book's humor to fall VERY flat and the 'jokes' seem poorly considered and all around weak.My biggest recommendation would be to review the content first. All of the book's 20 or so pages may be found here: [...]If you think it's funny, go for it. Just don't purchase blindly."
382269,1,game genie for gameboy dvance,"does not work period end of story lesson learned. I just wanted to make my game play easy and thought this would be an answer to me having extra lives, invincibility no such luck. I plugged into my game boy and nothing happened just a blank screen with a hand going in a circle like game genie does on my NES I couldn't even bypass it to just play the game I was relieved that I did not erase the memory to my game it was a waste of excitement for this don't try it if you have a gameboy advance color it will not work :-("
382297,1,the seller is a liar,"the seller claimed that the book was in PERFECT condition, just like newi received the book looking like the dog had it for breakfast lunch and supper !!!!!"
382368,1,The Lake House,I Have read almost all of James Pattersons' work and I have to say this one really should have been left in the lab! It's so far fetched that the story line can't even begin to seem logical much less real! Let's hope the next one is better.
382374,1,Wasted my money,"See, there is this ruthless Dr. Kane who wants to control the world by selling immortality to rich men. He has already made these kids that fly but they have flown the nest and he is trying to kill them before thay spill the beans. Kane has cloned himself so they is more than one bad guy. His wife is a robot that when he turns it on says, ""do me"". The birds kids are ""helped"" by this Veternarian and an FBI agent who are as poorly drawn as any two characters ever in the history of modern fiction.That is the plot. I have read Patterson before and he is usually not too bad. The only thing I can figure is that he was on a period of heavy drink or drugs while working on this one. What is impossible to know is why any self-respecting publisher would put their name on such a book."
382381,1,The Lake House,"I'm a bibliophile who's been reading fiction since 1985, and this book takes the award for the worst novel ever! That says a lot, considering the dreck that my eyes have seen. Simply put: It is sentimental, outlandish rubbish. Patterson needs to team with De Jonge again, because he can't do it alone. Spend your money on Harry Potter for childish fantasy or Harlan Coben for suspense."
382393,1,Didn't provide any real answers,"Hilary is the consumate politician, who assumes that we'll believe whatever she says simply because it's in print. This book was less subtle than I expected in trying to elicit sympathy and common ground from multiple quarters, and did not provide even a sliver of what I had hoped for - her frank response to the many unanswered questions about pre-presidential Arkansas, the Rose Law Firm, why any woman would put up with a husband who ""just can't help himself"", and many other subjects. Instead, it's recycled self pity, and she tries to get as many people on the wagon with her as she can, in preparation for asking for their votes later. I was willing to give it a chance, but this book was very disappointing."
382408,1,Oh! Please!!,"It is beyond my ability to understand how anyone with a brain can read this book and think that one word is the truth. It is yet another attempt for these criminals to try to re-write history in their favor. Fortunately, they will not get away with it this time! America is finally on to the HillBillies!"
382445,1,Didn't mind the tone but the science is flimsy,"This was an impulse buy I bought because I liked the ""in your face"" tone the authors took. What I didn't like was that it doesn't state that the diet is vegan anywhere on the front flap or back synopsis. I would have saved my money. I'm not anti-vegan (several friends and family are dedicated vegans) but it isn't for me. I do take exception to the book's weak science, unsubstantiated rumors and outdated conspiracy theories that have, quite simply, been discounted years ago. Veganism has many benefits but please, do your own research, be prepared to devote considerable time to devising a healthy, balanced diet and, as with any diet, check with your medical professional to make sure you don't have any medical conditions that contraindicate veganism before adopting the lifestyle. My vegan loved ones spend considerable time cooking and much more on groceries than I. Eating out and social gatherings can be tough, too."
382476,1,I guess I'm a moron,"The author notes that only a moron will think they can lose weight on the Atkins Diet... I must be a moron then, since I've lost 40lbs with it and have kept it off for 6 months and counting so far."
382495,1,Jarring details prevent suspension of disbelief,"Bangkok is a city ripe for this sort of fictional treatment, but John Burdett apparently did not immerse himself deeply enough in Thai culture and Buddhism to pull it off for this Thai reader. There are details that would probably be appreciated by the Western reader as adding a touch of oriental mystery to the proceedings, but because the author gets them wrong, only telegraph his superficial familiarity with Thai culture. A writer who makes much more effective use of Bangkok and Thai culture as a fictional backdrop is S.P. Somtow, a horror/fantasy author who happens to be Thai. I had looked forward to Bangkok 8, but my being Thai seems to have prevented me from enjoying the book as much as most other reviewers."
382523,1,Figures lie and liar's figure,"There is a saying ""If you torture the data long enough, you can get it to admit to anything"". Michael Lewis starts with the premise that Billy Beane is the best and smartest GM in baseball, then butchers the statistics to make it seem so.It's simple, the A's don't win so many games with a minimal payroll because of their on base pct. or because Billy Beane outsmarts his fellow GM's constantly. They win because they drafted (before Beane) three of the best youngs starting pitchers in baseball.A fact that gets amazingly little mention in the book.Predictions:A) When Zito, Mulder, and Hudson become free agents; Beane will will become a free agent right along with them and leave. B)When the before mentioned pitchers leave, the A's will stink, no matter how many pitches Scott Hatteberg takes."
382586,1,Applicability of Battery reference book to mobile phones,Good overview of battery chemistry and types. However very little up-to-date info on NiMH and lithium ion batteries.
382597,1,Paradox 7 complexities,"After 2 years of trying to operate Paradox 7, I continue to have the Expert system trying to intercept and ruin my needs. I installed the system on my pentium computer and the ""Expert"" system has never worked. I continue to get an error message. I am thoroughly disgusted with Corels theoretical ""support"" which is nonexistant unless I want to spend telephone dollars ( a lot of them) to fix THEIR system. A simple desire to add a column of numbers requires a PHD in economics and electronics. While Ms. Newbury may be a good author, there is no system to get help when it does not work.....Unless I want to spend more money trying to understand the Corel attitude."
382601,1,Unbelievable,I ordered two sets of these boxes in two different colors. First they are not as large as they are protrayed to be. Second they sent the wrong colors (and in this case it mattered) and third they sent the wrong amount. However their return policy is that they charge a restocking fee and you pay the shipping for their mistakes. Unbelievable!!!I gave them one star because at least they sent something.
382667,1,Mediocre Ligeia,"The Tomb of Ligeia is beautifully shot near a beach. The acting is good. The film boasts excellent costume design and set pieces. However, the plot is rather sluggish and uneventful. There is a lack of suspense and it seems to drag on forever. It finally ends with a very typical ending. There are no surprises here. This isn't as engaging, suspenseful, campy, or interesting as The Haunted Palace, The Raven, or Dr. Phibes."
382680,1,Very Average,Stevie Wonder is one of my All-Time Favorites Period.He is a Musical Genius.but This isn't his Genius here.Only two songs stand Out Sensuous Whisper&Cold CHill.His Writing is hurting on this DIsc.The Music is Lacking that Stevie Edge.After His Live Set I was Hyped for this Disc but it wasn't Happening but you can't take away The Man's Genius.

382786,1,SUCKS!,This cd is plain and simply horrible....it would be the worst rock cd i owned had i not listened to it before i bought it...and i have semisonic need i say more???PATHETIC! ITS LUCKY IT GETS 1 STAR!!!!!
382821,1,"Ok game, terrible support","Dominions II, while lovingly designed and balanced, due to its amateurish graphics, plays like a spreadsheet. The game itself is good enough to rise above this, however the tech support is abysmal. When the most recent patch was released, I was unable to apply it. When I contacted the developers for assistance, they were obtuse and unhelpful, eventually simply referring me to the message boards to get help from other players, refusing to even tell me if my problem was common, or unique. I love the idea of supporting small development houses, however, this one is small because they seem to think small."
382884,1,Doesn't work with Leopard,"After I upgraded my Mac Pro to OS 1.5, I also upgraded Parallels Desktop to Version 3.0. It is a complete disaster. Unlike before the upgrades, Parallels Desktop now runs Windows very slow and jerky. Many programs won't start, including programs as basic and essential as Microsoft Office. Some other programs work in a sort of hobbled mode, with some features responding and others not. One improvement is that the program allows you to use USB devices as soon as you plug them in, without reconfiguring anything. However, sound input from USB devices suffers static and interruptions. After the upgrade, Parallels Desktop even refused to allow access to the contents of a CD. Basically, it's as bad as having Virtual PC back!No, it's even weirder. If I try to insert a CD with Parallels Desktop running, the CD tray opens and immediately shuts. I have to insert disks before I've launched Parallels and then quit Parallels in order to remove them."
382938,1,Is it safe? Is it safe? Is it safe? -5 stars,"Hello World,I really don't have to say anything, the other reviews are 100% correct. I watch about 80 to 100 horror movies a year, this is a complete waste of time. Mr. Lommel needs to take up accountng or something."
382949,1,SO disappointed...!!!,"I flipped when I saw a cook on the food channel using this pot; it IS fabulous looking. Then I learned it is a cheap Chinese knock-off of my beloved French cast iron cookware. Am I glad I stayed with the Le Creuset!!! At least the French are free to compete with us. Shame on you, Lodge! I'll keep buying the good old American cast iron skillet (I have my GRANDMOTHER's Lodge skillet), but you can keep your made-in-China junk!Update: no wonder American manufacturing jobs are disappearing. If you buy these pans but can't find a good job, look in the mirror."
382978,1,You dont need it,"I dont see the point in this, the Mighty bright LED light lasts a lifetime because it uses L.E.D. therefore you will not need replacement. Besides that the product photo of this ""replacement bulbs"" show ordinary light bulps, not LED !!!"
382984,1,Not Funk!,"Had I done my due diligence, I would have known that ""Ridin Mighty High"" is a gospel based collection of songs. It does not reach back to the time when Pee Wee played along side the ""godfather"". Beware...this is not ""funk"" nor is the music even ""funky""."
382997,1,not what I wanted,"It was not a karaoke cd. It was an instrumental cd. No words displayed on the screen. What karaoke party do you see people reading from alittle cd cover, and not a tv screen? I was very disappointed........"
383115,1,Horrible air mattress,"I didnt have much money and was sleeping on the floor so I decided to buy this air mattress. First night it lasted about an hour before I felt the floor, it was a bad call because now im broke and still on the floor. You definitely get what you pay for."
383207,1,Stick with a manual stapler,"Purchased this gun, but will be returning it right away.This gun may be good for very soft wood and short staples, but is worthless for your average wood or hardwood.I tried this gun first with 1/2"" staples on poplar wood. The staples only went in about halfway. I tried again with 1/4"" staples (the shortest) and they still did not penetrate fully even with very hard pressure.I tried the same staples with an average manual gun, and they penetrated fully.If you're looking for something tho make your staple work easier, look elsewhere."
383365,1,Didn't Last,"Purchased the Intex Supreme Air-Flow Queen Airbed Nylon Flocked with Built-in Electric Pump in January 2011. I used it for a couple of weeks and found it extremely comfortable. Used it again in July for a week, and most recently for a few days in September. It developed a leak that appears to be between the two mattresses, which I am unable to patch because of the location. It was great while it lasted, but it didn't last."
383368,1,Good when it lasts,"This mattress is great while it lasts; it isn't super wobbly, fitted sheets fit well, it doesn't look like something you'd send camping w/your kids, and it's tall enough that an older person can use it. However, it only lasts a couple months & then it must be replaced. After the first failure I ordered twice more thinking each was a fluke, that I'd gotten lemons. Now I've been through 3 and I doubt I got 3 lemons in a row. At around the two month mark the interior seams fail, the mattress bulges and begins losing air.I went w/Intex because, in the past, I had good luck w/them. Yes, some lasted longer than others, but in general, they lasted a reasonable amount of time. I also liked this mattress, while it worked it was the most comfortable guest mattress I'd had."
383391,1,dvd sound on blu ray,"dvd sound on blu ray is not acceptable in 2010. I understand sound is intentionally bad in this movie, butgive us the bad sound UNCOMPRESSED. The single releases of these movies on blu ray had uncompressed soundwhich added punch to the pops and hissing during the film, became more alive. Older films that are donein MONO are all uncompressed on blu ray, there is no reason why this release shouldn't be. Shame onRR and Quentin for allowing this to be released."
383442,1,STAY AWAY!!!!,"What a horrible piece of ....!It worked well the first oh.... 45 minutes, then as stated in the other reviews my tape player kept reversing every song or so & would then just eject the tape. Evidently from what I've learned this isn't an uncommon problem with this unit.I did like the fact that it has a car charger, great for road trips & if you spend lots of time in driving like I do. Also I liked the fact that the wires are retractable, unfortionately the pros don't mean anything if it won't stay in the tape deck!I've read several other reviews of these & am sorry I didn't purchase the Sony version which I'm going to have to buy now anyway.My advice is if your going with a tape model, stay away from this one & get the Sony."
383451,1,Deep River,"I am very disappointed in this program. I have been doing my own graphics/cards for about 10 years. I started with Print Shop (early edition) and progressed thru all the updates. I then switched to PrintMaster and LOVED it!!! Again, I have progressed to each new verion with very little or no problems...until now! This has got to be the worst of the worst--- the program did not want to load without being babied. When it finally loaded, it was very confusing and I found that I needed to get my graphics from the internet! The area I live in only allows me to have dial up---you can imagine how long it takes to get the graphics I want! If you are interested in doing your own graphics/cards, skip this program...go back to PrintMaster Platinum 16 for much better results. As far as I am concerened, the River Deep Company needs to hide this edition in the DEEPEST RIVER they can find!"
383485,1,Psued's Corner cont,"To paraphrase Mark Pytlik, who expresses himself far more eloquently than me on the matter (see allmusic.com `Selling Live Water' review): Most Anticon records attempt to play a disingenuous trick on the listener by selling themselves as high-concept when they're really hip-hop Dada. For all their dense, breathless wordplay and thick, stewy production, you'd be forgiven for thinking that there's a surfeit of content, threads to untangle, layers to peel through. The disappointing reality is that all these five-dollar words and murky sonic tapestries are impressionistic at best, a fact that wouldn't be in the least bit troubling were Anticon's more lucid moments not filled with blazing rhetoric in deference to some sort of hidden insight."
383496,1,.....not happy,"Horrible. It was supposed to be durable enough for my husbands shoes, but within days the metal hooks bent and wouldn't stay on the door...."
383515,1,ultra-violent mindless trash,"Take uninspired voice acting, mix it with less than stellar animation and a nearly non-existent plotline and you end up with a repulsive anime called M.D. Geist. There isn't a character worth giving a care about in the entire movie-- but regardless of that ""little"" flaw, there is enough absurdly violent content to make fans of ""Fist of the North Star"" drool. Pathetically, the sequel is even worse...."
383561,1,Wrap falls off the tree constantly,I bought this wrap because one of our kittens outside like to use the trees as his scratching post. All this did was give him something to play with after he tore it off and for me to clean up.I tried everything and every trick to keep it on short of glueing it to the tree.
383569,1,whatever,not a bad movie but barely keeping me interested enough to watch. i am about half way though it at this point and plan i watching it through. dont expect anything great coming out of this though.
383605,1,Triangle,"The fire at the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory in 1911 is the basis for this story. At age 106, Esther is the oldest living survivor of the fire. She is interviewed by a most extremely obnoxious and insensitive researcher, who badgers not only the aged Esther, but her granddaughter as well. Why the granddaughter ever agreed to meet the interviewer defies logic. The story fluctuates between the grandmother's story of the fire, which is told in bits and pieces, and her 50ish granddaughter and her lover. The latter pair are a medical researcher and a musician, respectively. We learn too much about them and not enough about the grandmother.The only interesting character in the book is the grandmother and we don't learn nearly enough about her."
383662,1,Low quality reproduction,This edition is a very poor reproduction of the original. Between a third to a half of the book has pages that are totally black. I would recommend buying from the Kansas Historical Society.
383679,1,Returned it a long time ago,Basket assembly was crooked and didn't fit well with lid closed - also clear top of lid is plastic and not glass.
383731,1,Everyone who disagrees must be an America-hating liberal.,"Gross simplifications, and cheap pandering to the most extreme views of her party (much like Michael Moore for the far left, whom I also despise), makes for some boring fodder from another bleached-blond ""pundit"".Childish sniping by the likes of Ingraham & Moore only serve to antagonize the vast majority of Americans who are centrists and who have a little common sense. I'm not sure how stupid you have to be to buy this line of argument: if you think SUVs unnecessarily waste gas, then you're an America-hating liberal, and if you don't approve of George Bush's handling of our country, you must be an al Qaeda-loving terrorist.Let's hope that the majority of reasonable-minded people can look past the divisiveness of today's politics and relegate people like Laura Ingaham's junk to the garbage can."
383789,1,Translation can spoil the book.,"Having read the Constance Garnet translation three times, I looked forward to a new version. The experience has been disappointing. The translation is awkward at best, without style, and jarring in spots. After spending a month on 125 pages, I gave up and went back to Constance, with relief. I can stand the ""whilst's"" if the writing flows."
383839,1,How sad!,"Peter Cincotti's first two albums are some of my all time favories and his concert video is fabulous, but now this? In a sincere effort to be fair, I forced myself to play it a second time, but couldn't stand it long enough to make it all the way through. I waited many months after hearing it before I could bring myself to write this review.Why Peter? Why does someone with your obvious talent who brings such a fresh breath of youthful style and grace in jazz record an album that is so totally lacking in either? How sad. Please don't let the mess that this album is signal the end of a promising future. If this is an effort to ""find yourself"", this definitely isn't it. Look over your shoulder. You were already there fresh out of the box. As a sincere fan, I'm severely disappointed. You used to have it in spades. Back up, Peter and try again."
383848,1,"A nation regarding Hilter as hero, not Germany but Japan","What kind of logic is this? This author used the hatred of the victims against the criminal Japan to deny the crimes the criminal commited on so many Asian countries and US.Hey, Mr. Hung, Japan is denying the war that happened 67 years agao and ended 59 years ago. Every year Japanese are visting their temple and showing their respect to their Hitlers starting this war. What is that? Isn't there any propaganda going on making Japanese people so ignorant of this not so old history? Why are you so agreeable with Japanese propaganda?While German people already felt ashamed of Hitler, Japanese people are regarding their Hitlers the national heros. Isn't that weird???"
383855,1,a book spielberg will love.,"there are actually 2 books here : Time Traders from 58and Galactic Derelict from 59 (sequal). both books are kind of infantile SF books, representing the clasic age of the ganre. it has a very entertaing plot with aleans back to the past, and the back to the feuture plot, and then flying in rockets to sidtant planet, meeting bad russians, and aleans, and monsters. in short a full plot of 5 spielberg movies in one cover -because the story is so plane, the figures are one dimentional, the americans are always the best and humane, while the russian and the aliens are always bad or stupied. and the writing style is not something to cover on it.andre norton won the SWFA grand master aword in 83. i think this was to show gratitude for his persistance, but judging from this books, i don't think he truely deserved it."
383872,1,Very bad experience with this produce,"This steamer was rickety when assembled. It got too hot to touch -- even on the handle. Finally, after only about five or six uses, it refused to turn on. Trying to contact the company is a nightmare: their 800 number is always busy, and they have no e-mail capability. I'd advise going with another brand."
383883,1,Not for me,This book might be helpful for people who need help in developing critical thinking and taking a more objective view of life. But I think it would be rather banal for people who have already developed these traits.
383913,1,What do you want?,I was hoping to find songs taken from previous recordings (on other records). What I got is a short walk down memory lane of clipped versions with overdubbed loud instrumentals. One more regift!Paul
383919,1,Total Waste of Money and Time,I tried to watch this with an open mind I really did. It just wasn't good - it seemed designed just to be repulsive and shocking ripping off Hostel and Saw -with more extreme footage. I think it was an excuse to film skinny naked girls and watch them in degrading situations. It didn't feel like art - it wasn't really interesting and it lacked any redeeming value whatsoever.I'm not saying this couldn't have been a half-way decent film - but it would require someone with more of an imagination and the ability to develop a plot. But that's just my opinion I understand some people really enjoyed it. I have watched other extreme type films and I was surprised at how well it was done no matter how disgusting the subject matter - 'Srapbook' comes to mind. So I thought I'd give this a looksee -but I was disappointed.
384021,1,Wrong Item Pictured,The only items included are the two Black and Red Probes in the lower right of the picture
384033,1,Boring,"What a waste of time - a boring aimless tale of a selfish woman's life. The ""heroine"" is simply unbelievable as she swings between going her own way at the expense of her husband and other children to submitting to her husband and abandoning her single minded pursuit of education for her Down's child, to once again ignoring her husbands needs to satisfy her own."
384068,1,NOT INFORMATIVE ENOUGH.,"THE BOOK DOES NOT HELP COLLECTORS OF CZECH BOHEMIAN IRIDESCENT INKWELLS. FIRST, THERE ARE ONLY 8 EXAMPLES IN THE BOOK. THE PHOTOGRAPHS ARE TOO DARK AND DO NOT CAPTURE THE BEAUTY OR TEXTURE OF THE GLASS. BUT WORSE, THE INFORMATION IS WRONG. INKWELLS CLEARLY MARKED WITH THE GERMAN PATENT MARK, D.R.G.M. ARE LABELED 'AMERICAN."" IN ONE INSTANCE, TWO INKWELLS MADE OF THE SAME GLASS ARE CALLED RESPECTIVELY 'AMERICAN"" AND ""EUROPEAN."" THE AUSTRIAN MARK OE.P COMES OUT ""DEP."" AT LEAST THEY ARE CALLED ""LOETZ-TYPE,"" WHICH IS ACCURATE, SINCE NONE OF WAS MADE BY LOETZ. A GOOD BARGAIN BOOK TO LOOK AT PICTURES, BUT DEFINITELY NOT FOR THE ESPECIALIST."
384074,1,"Yawn,Snore,Bore","I have read the book My Name is Asya. I thought it lacked excitement,conflict,and climax. No climax,no excitement! It would be a lovely book for readers interested a Russian girl but it did not interest me."
384082,1,Junk,"First off, the packaging was horrible. It came in a box not much bigger than the pan with NO packing at all. The handle was sticking out the side of the box when I got it!! No biggie though. I opened the box and found the pan to be of poor quality, the handle was barely long enough for me to hold in my hand and with no handle opposite, it would be a chore to move this baby around when you had a few pounds of food in it!! The casting was REALLY rough and you could see that there was about a 3 inch spot in the middle where the casting was very thin. This thing was junk and I sent it back to be replaced by a Lodge. Bayou Classics are cast in China and they look like it!! Wish I knew that before I ordered it!!"
384125,1,Average read,"Written by an Australian author, this book does not work well in the US market. Lots of what the author has written can be found in better books like Games Trainers Play and so on. It is pitched very low and doesn't cater for the sophisticated learning specialist. Buy something else."
384148,1,Sting wax action figure review,This toy is awful. It looks like a Disneyland Parade reject and what's with the pink cape? It also looks like he's passing gas and trying to hide it by poseing. I give this toy a -0 out of 10.
384193,1,Former Marine,"I read about the author's ""award-winning"" documentaries, but throughout the entire book I bristled every time the word Marine was NOT capitalized, as it should be. We are proud of our title, and it is always capitalized, had this ""documentarian"" done some digging, and it would not have taken much, he would have realized his mistake.Also, agree with other reviews regarding the skipping around, this makes it difficult to follow at times. Reading about a battle which was fought in the ""fog of war"" does not mean I want to read about it while the fog is still present."
384218,1,Junk,It worked for like 3 minutes then made a pop sound then the shaft stopped rotating. Guessing the shaft broke really cheaply made. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this cheap piece of plastic.
384236,1,Very poorly written,"Poorly organized, not clear, and quite confusing at times. Don't waste your time and money on a book that you'll surely return.There are other great choices here!"
384238,1,Great show poor quality disks,"Dont get me wrong I am a big fan of the series and love watching the show. But the quality of the disks and case are the poorest I have yet to see. your not supposed to polish/ wipe off your tv, computer and glasses with polyester and other plasticloth fibers. it will scratch the surface. unfortunatley thats exactly what they did with your discs. the protective sleeves are nothing but plasticloth fibers. if that isnt bad enough the discs themselves are not well made. I dont know if it is the material or the way the laser burned the discs in the factory. but it is so bad it makes some of the disks literally unwatchable."
384249,1,topcell 14.4 porter cable replacement battery,"Ordered two topcell 14.4 batteries when original PC batteries quit after five years. When they arrived I put them on charge. The ""defective"" light on charger flashed the whole cycle during charge. When charged, one drove 17 1 1/4"" drywall screws and quit. Second one drove a 3/4 spade bit about 3/16"" into a pine board and quit. Sent them back and got two more with same identical results as the first two. Borrowed a 14.4 PC battery and put it on charge, it charged up normally proving that there is nothing wrong with charger. These topcell batteries are junk and not worth carrying home."
384306,1,me no like,"both suck in my opinion. didnt even watch whole way through on either. up in smoke is cool, yellowbeard was the real surprise. youre welcome"
384511,1,"Don't waste your time, money","This book is about an egocentric woman who claims to be aiding Afghan women but more often draws them into dangerous behaviors (considering their culture). Rodriguez seems appalled by the lives of these women and what they endure, then marries an Afghan man with wife and children, droning about her disappointment when he goes home to them. This book is pointless."
384558,1,Other similar books provide much more for the money,"I ordered this book, hoping that it would provide a simple but substantive approach to identifying customers and developing strategies to reach them. Instead, I was disappointed to discover that it was merely a compilation of worksheets with no explanation as to how to use them. Many of the questions were open-ended with no real structure that would lead to a coherent strategy.The ""One-to-One Fieldbook"" by Don Peppers and Martha Rogers is a much more useful handbook, and at $15.95 is a much more worthwhile investment. I'm returning my copy of this book and keeping the Peppers and Rogers tome."
384562,1,Not what I thought it was going to be,The book is a great history lesson for the seminole tribe but not what I was looking for.Thank you
384666,1,Do not waste your money or your time on this book or system,"Monopolize Your Marketplace is about as close to a scam as is possible without crossing the boundary. If I could give this book and system a zero rating, I would. This company has morphed into a variety of different guises over time, staying almost one step ahead of the law and/or bankruptcy. However, they were successfully prosecuted by the FCC and lost. They have filed for bankruptcy. Don't be fooled by the slick language in their ads. It is not effective."
384718,1,Thomas Trains do not fit in case,"The wooden Thomas the Tank Engine trains do not fit in this case. The case is way to small for the trains to fit in. I would not recommend anyone buying this item. It is just a brightly painted metal box, that doesnt serve any useful purpose. The manufactor should be ashamed for false advertising."
384729,1,tia-xxx,This is not a very good item because as soon as I took it out of the box the head came off. They are also very very expensive!
384875,1,DO NOT PURCHASE!,"SmartShopper SS101 Grocery List OrganizerBy the time it you enter your items...you could've hand written it 10 times!!!!!!!!!! It didn't always recognise your voice commant....having to repeat it over and over. Then finally, trying to enter it by using key codes. 15 minutes later...still trying to make one entry that isn't on the programmed list. Not specific enough. Sometime you need a certain size or brand. Just entering ""peas"" might not be enough information.The video makes it look so easy. ""I SHOULD""VE TAKEN A VIDEO""...to show the truth!!!!!!!! It got returned. Handwritting is so much easier."
384880,1,MILWAUKEE LIED OVER RATED BUT WORKS DECENT,"Highly overrated tool. Doesn't even come close to the torque specs advertised by Milwaukee. It can take out bolts torqued to about 80 FT/LB.That is the closest it will come to 350 FT/LB? False advertising at the finest by Milwaukee. Don't buy this tool, if you think you can use it for anything over 80 FT/LB.Stay away, far away, not even close!"
384908,1,May turn on some lights but leave you in the cold,"This is a disturbing book. While I found much of it enlightening with points well-argued, it portrays a cold-hearted Christianity; an army of defenders and apologetics who have little of the ""impractical"" compassion that we need if we are to bring the spirit of Christ into our world. I prefer the kinder, gentler treatment of this subject by authors like Richard Foster, Philip Yancey, Dallas Willard, who I think better understand the integration of reason and compassion in a life of faith."
384941,1,think about it,I bought this because I want to weld aluminum but as soon as I opened it and tryed it. It didn't work had to call the company they was no help other then gave me a address to go get it checked out which is 3miles away its been over 3 weeks already and finally they said they couldn't find parts for it because they don't make these modals anymore and till this day I haven't recived anything this set my work so behind
384969,1,"game out in 2001-2002, still the graphics are horrible","it lags a lot in graphics. the gameplay is neither good. interesting if you want to know more about the Star Wars stories from Episodes I, II, IV, V, & VI.i'd suggest to wait for the new RTS ""Star Wars Empire at War"" coming in 2005 made by the creators of ""Command & Conquer Generals"" (i'm not talking about publisher EA or Electronic Arts, i'm talking about the once Westwood Studios' programmers)"
384990,1,Solid card but lousy signal,"I had a Dell TrueMobile card in my Dell laptop, but my wife kept bending the big antenna sticking out, to the point of it almost breaking. I saw this card and thought ""what a great idea!"" and ordered it. My signal strength went from EXCELLENT to POOR. And get this, my router is about 6 feet away through a wood floor. If I move the laptop off my lap and out around my knees, I get a GOOD signal, but a laptop is made for, well, laps.Well made card but lousy implementation of design. I doubt you will be happy."
384992,1,not accurate at all,"I bought this to replace my really cheap scale that I bought for 5 dollars at target because my friend thought it was inaccurate. I wanted an lithium electronic scale anyhow so I bought this last year.I'm not getting the lo battery thing and I had it for more than a year. HOWEVER, it's not accurate at all! I test it every morning and it fluctuates around 3 lbs (I'm a light person so that's a lot) up or down. It's very frustrating and I think I'll be investing in a new scale because I'm sure this scale is lying to me."
385019,1,Great research by Wardlow marred by Calt's poor presentation,"This book is fairly essential to those interested in themusic of Patton and his contemporaries, as it is based onthe comprehensive research on the subject by Gayle DeanWardlow, research which is largely unavailable elsewhere.Unfortunately, Calt's presentation of this information ispoor at best, and downright malicious at times. His writing istypically peppered with ad homien attacks at his subjects,and this book is no exception. The book is also in desperateneed of thorough editing... one sometimes wonders how it got publishedat all."
385024,1,Didn't Last,"After only 5 months of limited use we started finding bits of plastic in our food. Even brand new it had only lackluster performance. I tried to save a few bucks over the pampered chef model, but it was money wasted."
385048,1,not impressed yet,"I bought this heater today to supplement my main central electric heat because it got too cold in the house having a small baby. i plugged it in, cranked it on high for about an hour and it is still giving off the most awful smell ever. i thought it might go away after about 30 minutes, but it is still going. i had to take it out of the baby's room because i didnt want her to smell the nasty fumes. Needless to say, I am going to give it a little time because it seems to get pretty warm."
385053,1,waste of money,"I bought this toy for my son when he was 11 months old. My because he liked his other toys better, but he doesn't give this one any attention at all. The crank is hard for him to turn and the musical tune doesn't keep his attention. I love this brand but this isn't one of their best toys."
385116,1,"4 stars for features, no stars for reliability","Update: Coming up on 1 year after rebuilding it with a GFCI outlet and a standard outlet; unit is still operating as redesigned and I just placed the koi pond back into 'service' for the Spring/Summer/Fall.Original review below.Sun causes the plastic to distort. Install in the shade and it may last longer. The distortion causes the outlets to be flakey; wiggling the plugs around allows them to make contact, but may stop working when the sun comes or goes. So far it hasn't had water leak into it, despite the warping.Since there isn't anything else comparable, I'm gutting my year-old unit. I tested the two switches, photocell and circuitry, and it is all properly functioning. So the problems appear to be just with the poor outlet electrical contact design. I'm removing the GFCI/outlet guts, and I'll cut the housing to allow insertion of a GFCI outlet and a standard outlet. This should correct the problems, and if I provide shade the unit should last."
385159,1,Quality,"This is just it...Why spend time on a single, when you got more and better on their album ""Tyranny For You"".Is it worth the effort to stick in a single for 10 minutes of fun? Stick to the longplaying.""Tyranny for you"" is a great Allboom"
385171,1,I expected more,"I am usually a fan of Meltzer's work but it seems I am not a fan of his early stuff. This book was boring. I had a hard time paying attention to it and I kept looking to see how much more I had.The idea seems thrilling. Two brothers decided to move some money from a dead account to their own instead of turning it over to the state. As easy as it sounds to them they end up funneling money out of the account and beat a group of thieves to it. They then become chased by their company, the secret service, and the thieves. This being said I was excited to read this because it did sound like it would be a non stop suspense ride. It was not. I have read it and now I can move on."
385200,1,Awful and bad for your baby,"This carrier dangles your baby from his/her crotch. Get an ergonomic carrier, like a Beco or Ergo where the baby actually sits. Don't let your baby dangle in a way you would never want to. If you don't believe me, sit on the arm of your couch on your crotch. That is what baby feels. We hated it. Also, kills the back. No support whatsoever and baby will outgrow it super fast. Also, facing out is wrong. Baby has nowhere to hide his face from the world or seek comfort from mom or dad. And they inevitably fall asleep with the head dangling. I don't know who designed this or why it is so popular but don't let the price and all the celebrities draw you to it. It really is an awful carrier once you've tried what a real baby carrier should be."
385204,1,Lags behind innovation,They may have been at the forefront years ago but Babybjorn lags behind the more ergonomically advanced carriers. I am 6' and 200 lbs and this thing just kills my back because it puts all the weight at my shoulders. On top of this it is not the easiest thing to get the baby out!I will not mention other products in this review but their is a newer ergonomic design that distributes the weight to my hips and supports the baby in a position better for her spine. It is two to three times as much but it is five to ten times better so I still view it as a bargain.
385241,1,What's the Point?,"I was expecting magical and enchanting, and was disappointed. It felt like a waste of time, reading this to my children. Mary is cold, vain, haughty and prickly, no lessons are taught, the children twistedly care more for her than they do for their own mother, the ""adventures"" the children go on are bizarre and pointless."
385311,1,Airzooka hard to aim,"The AirZooka is a fun toy, but pretty much for adults and older kids. I got it for my 6 year old who thought it looked awesome. Unfortunately I don't think he's ever hit anything more than a foot away with it. The adults after practice can usually hit something after 6 or 7 tries, but the ad saying you can surprise someone with a blast of air is not accurate. It makes a lot of noise since its a thick plastic piece getting slapped by a rubber band. Its fun, but not the easiest thing in the world to use."
385347,1,Only for beginners,"The information from this book can easily be grabbed from the web at Sun's JSP site. This book lacks depth. It basically tells you some JSP basics but won't get you far in developing any serious applications. I relate it to an HTML for dummies book that tells you how to code basic HTML for your homepage. Get Web Development with JavaServer Pages. Much more bang for the buck, for beginners and beyond."

385396,1,Second part of the book is still a mystery,"How can one review a book half of which is difficult to follow?Perhaps the book should be renamed to ""Getting Used to Java Syntax"". The basic language elements are reasonably well presented. However, the second part of the book, which attempts to describe more advanced concepts, does not impart much understanding. I am still mystified by Exceptions and Multithreading."
385459,1,Ok printer,"Pros: Good print qualityCons: Slow scan speed, not great scan quality. Internet connection would fail every day and require restarting the printer by unplugging it.

385476,1,"No, no, no, NO!","In the early 1970s, my school system adopted Roberts English as its grammar curriculum. My 2nd grade class was the first class to use it. The school system abandoned it when I was in 8th grade. It was the most confusing, confounding, ridiculous way to teach grammar. My 9th grade English teacher was horrified when we (the first group of students ""brought up"" on Roberts English) appeared in his class and didn't know the first thing about grammar. He had to start all over, subject-verb-predicate. I still don't know the parts of speech. Whatever you do, DO NOT teach Roberts English!"

385582,1,I will never buy these again,"I should have paid attention to the other reviews. These liners are very thin and flimsy. My cats had scratched MANY holes after just the first use and now I'm going to have a big mess to clean when I need to change out the litter. I will be doubling or tripling up next time, until I go through all of these (hate to waste money) and then I will never be purchasing these again. So disappointed. You'd expect better from the actual creators of the Booda Dome."
385583,1,booda pan liners,"This item, while decent, is not what I was expecting. I was expecting a bag that was fitted for the litter box that it is advertised for, and to be good quality (after all, they are fairly expensive). However, they are the same liners that you can buy a box of 20 of from the dollar tree. Nothing special. Thin cheap plastic that the cat easily scratches through, and no special fitting. Even the good quality bags with the elastic band are cheaper than these. Do not buy, you are better off using a very cheap trash bag (and even those will probably work better)."
385596,1,buyer's remorse,This is without a doubt the worst cologne I ever bought. I must admit that I bought it from amazon based on reviews and pictures of the bottle--clearly the wrong way to buy cologne!
385600,1,"Dirt Bunko, The Imprisoned Pigeon that Ate a C-Note and Pooped Out Two Bits","MISSED!!! One good story...the last one. Isn't that typical?

385685,1,Microsoft 2007,"When I tried to install the Microsoft 2007 software, it would not install. I called Microsoft and they told me that since I apparently did not have a validation ID included in the package, the program could not be installed. After 15 hours of phone conversations over a period of two days with the Microsoft technicians (in India), they were able to provide me with a working validation ID and install the program. During the process, however, they disabled my security system and firewall for a period of 24 hours. They wanted to know where I purchased the program. I had no telephone number or e-mail address for the seller, only a mailing address. Also, the package was marked ""Military Appreciation Edition."" In addition, most of my defaults were deleted, I still have problems with accessing other programs, and I constantly get error messages on the screen. I am extremely dissatisfied and disappointed."
385698,1,It works.,I am kind of disappointed. I didn't expect a whole lot for four bucks but this thing is pretty low quality. The gauge is just a piece of paper wrapped around the core and glued closed. On the bottom of mine the glue didn't adhere correctly and it is coming apart. It doesn't really affect the ability to measure but it is annoying.
385718,1,Infared Repellant,Not worth the time or money. Very poor product didn't even meet my minimal expectations.
385773,1,"Cheap construction, and short hose","Don't waste your money. The construction is cheap. For example, the clip to shut off the water flow stopped working after only the third use. Also, the hose is VERY short. The shortest I've ever encountered with this kind of product."
385791,1,This is only for 32 bit systems,"I have XP Pro 64 bit Windows OS. This cam that I just received today will not operate on a 64 bit system. Error message pops up during software install stating that this is a 32 bit system device. Nowhere in the product description did I see mention that this cam would not work with my OS. Now I just wasted money on this cam and have to look for another one.So beware if you have a 64 bit system as I do, keep looking for another cam."
385793,1,BEWARE product and return policy,"I bought this for my son to keep in his room. After playing a CD ONE TIME, the player would no longer play any CD. I got the player ready to return and then saw the return policy for the RECORDING STORE - I had three days from original delivery to return it. Unfortunately, I had missed the deadline - I was on summer vacation for four days when it was delivered, I took a day to pull it out of the package, two days to realize that the player was actually defective (not user error) and we were out of range of returning it according to the company. I strongly recommend that you look at a more established brand of player and buy from a company that has a less draconian return policy. I bought a Sony from Best Buy and am very pleased now."
385799,1,Been there done that,"This is the best way to describe AC2. They are furthering the genre with graphics. It's basically a pure level treadmill. They took out all the supposed tedious elements out of MMORPG but left the worst one of all, the level treadmill.No content, alot of imbalance, alot of bugs, your typical MMORPG release but a shame for a company on it's second try. If you don't mind killing things for years on end and nothing else this games is for you otherwise stay far far away."

385972,1,good luck,"I bought this d-link 614+ last week and I am going to return back. This is just a nightmare to work on it. At my job I do alot of network troublshooting but this is a really a time consuming to make it to work on win XP Pro. 4 hrs attempt I was able to obtain dhcp ip address once and then I lost it when updated the firmware to ver.2.10. The only reason I updated because of thier Tech support suggested that if I update the firmware it will 100% resolve my issue next time. Well, It made it worse. After that I was not able to get the dhcp ip address from my ISP provider. Their own Tech support couldn't figure this out why its doing that. I tried on my three windows xp machines got the same result. Also their TEch support are not that great, they know few things and after that they tell you shut down the pc plus the router wait 5 min. if still on status configuration not showing ip address give us a call back.LOL, good luck another word he runs out of solution."
385985,1,"(300-Pack) means 1 box, not a pack of 300","The headline says (300-Pack) but when we got it, there was only 1 box and the box was so small that you might be able to stuff a hamster into it, if you put the tail out one of the holes. I would NOT recommend this item to anyone."

386035,1,This book has very few upsides,"Yes, this book comes with a set of runes. That's the upside. The reason this book causes so much controversy is that some of us are Asatru, we actually believe in the Traditional Northern European religion. To us, the story of Odin hanging from the world tree to uncover the runes is like Jesus walking on water to Christians. So when man from some other faith comes along, takes our ethnic divination system, changes the esoterically significant order, fumbles the divine meanings, and creates new parts (e.g. the blank rune), well you can see why some of us would be a little put off by this. If you are a student of Norse culture, an Asatruar, or looking for a spiritual tool that resonates with the Ancient Tuetonic soul then I would suggest ignoring this book. Try Edred Thorsson instead."
386057,1,Capzasin often causes intense lasting pain,"This product is can cause intense skin pain that can take hours to go away. It is surprising that it is sold without warnings about this. I don't mean it causes transient burning, I mean it causes lasting pain that will not stop even if you wash it off. The first time it worked ok, but on a different area it started to burn, skin turned red, and the pain wouldn't go away with repeated washing. Other web sites said that Aloe vera can help but we didn't have any (calamine lotion helped a little)."
386155,1,Horrible unit - stay away,"I have 2 units, the sportster and an original starmate. They both have a wide FM transmitter range and excellent audio quality. The starmate had a screen issue so I got a replacement from Sirius - a starmate 4. Unbearable white noise made me wonder if this was a refurb. I called Sirius again and got another S4. The audio, while still having white noise, was not as bad. However, the FM transmitter range is about 2 feet. Yes, 2 feet, I only wish I was exaggerating. Now I have to call again and see what Sirius can do and exactly how they can stand behind this product. Very frustrating."
386293,1,Leaked Tea all in my cup,"Seriously... It's a tea Ball... That doesn't keep tea inside of it. It is incredibly cheaply made, and routinely spilled tea leaves all into my drink. This ball hit the garbage basket faster than Kobe can sink a 3."
386294,1,Disappointing,"Purchase was a complete disaster. Package arrived smashed which didn't help. Ball itself appears poorly manufactured and although upon initial appearance it appeared to be intact inside it's badly damaged mailing package and the completely smashed manufacturer's package- it was in fact unusable. To be clear, the ball itself did not appear damaged in the shipping process.Upon initial attempt to use it, opening the latch proved difficult. A little extra pressure and the ball disintegrated in my hand. The latch completely falling off of the ball along with the chain and the mesh ball falling apart into two halves- the small hinge apparently was not intact at all. Quite disappointing; however, I guess I got what I paid for- and learned my lesson."
386322,1,Sleek,"The ChameleonThis book is well written but dirty. Once you start reading it, it is hard to put down."
386324,1,Hurtful and horrifically damaging,"Anyone with any experience in domestic violence knows that the abuser in the situation will immediately claim their partner abused *them*. I work with First Step, a nonprofit organization to help the victims of domestic violence break out of abusive relationships. I have seen abusive men scream that the woman had 'clawed his face' or 'slapped' him. From experience I can say that nine times out of ten this 'abuse' is done out of fear, often when the abuser has the victem pinned against the wall. A case I just assisted on involved a woman who slapped her husband after he had pinned her to a wall. He punched her in the face and broke the woman's nose. He still maintains that he was in the right, and that he was the abused. This is a techinque of power, of making the woman feel guilty and weak. No violence is acceptable, but making the claim that men are abused to a larger extent than women only helps further sterotypes benificial to violent men."
386397,1,minus 10 stars; author knows nothing of Deleuze,"I am stunned that the book was published by a University press. I stopped reading it; the book was that dreadful! The author seems incapable of understanding Deleuze, although he could comprehend Michael Hardt. Furthermore, the author is anti-Deleuze--a fact that the title disguises."
386455,1,This Game is Dangerous,"There's been a lot of talk lately about how violent video games cause violent behavior, but acctually I think it's just the opposite. Shrek is almost ridiculously Non violent. You can punck and kick until you're green in the face, but everything gets back up. Normally, when you play blood bath games like Halo or Max Payne you come away from it feeling relaxed and calm, agressions out. However, play Shrek for a half hour you're going to want to take out a Glock and mow down a line of people at a post office. So parents don't buy your kids this game, buy them Max Payne or Blood wake, now that's therapy.Oh yeah, and P.S., I don't kbnow what game the people who wrote the product description played, but Shrek only has 8 levels and there are no between level cut scenes."
386480,1,I've Been Stung,"I think I own most every Sting / Police release, so you'd surely need to categorize me as a Sting fan. Because I enjoy his music so much, I braved the hefty price believing I must have it.It was a woeful disappointment for me, however. The disc consists of elongated versions of just a handful of Sting tunes set to drum-machine-produced club beats. I'm not into the club scene and actually enjoy Sting for the variety of world beats he incorporates into his music, so this really rubbed a nerve with me. I really didn't need the 3 disco versions of ""Desert Rose"" that this CD features.This CD is gonna collect dust."
386602,1,They do what they have to for a little while,I mean you get what you expect for what you are paying - the thing is they don't last much and I would recommend going for a higher quality product if you want something that doesn't give you too much trouble... or just get a bunch of these...
386687,1,"Not the full feature of Stallion Canyon, half or more of the movie is missing","I ordered this movie because my grandfather is one of the main actors. I gave one away as a gift to his daughter and kept one for myself. I have seen the movie a couple of times but when I watched this I was confused because parts that I distinctly remembered were not in the movie. I thought maybe I did not really remember so well. Then, after my aunt sat down this past weekend with my uncle and two other aunt to have a movie night and watch it, she call because most of the movie was missing. I am hoping for a refund because I am not interested in the other feature. Bought it strictly because my grandfather whom I knew and love so much was in it."
386714,1,Are you interested in health improvement?,"I was impressed with the build quality of this slicer. I also liked the replaceable wire feature, in case it breaks. The novel method of adjusting for thickness of slices was ingenious, too. However, the metal roller is made of aluminum. Personally, I do not want aluminum in any kitchen product to contact the food I eat. The health hazards of aluminum are considerable, and are well established. I cannot recommend this product to anyone who is concerned about improving their health. To me, improving one's health is a far more important issue than convenience or ease of use. I have decided to use steel knives to cut cheese instead, although it may take longer, or be more difficult to do."
386764,1,Times have changed,"Given the change in the world since this book was released the plot seems a little dated. Aside from that this book is also probably the most compelling that Clany has witten. It also relies to some extent on characters from past Clancy novels which may it a little confusing for first time readers.I didn't find the plot as entralling or suspensful as other Clancy works like the Hunt for Red October or Clear and Present Danger. I still however enjoy Clancy's writing style and plot development and his high level knowledge of the subject matter.Perhaps the world has moved on too much now for this style of novel to be truely engrossing. It is hard to imagine a world in which the major struggle was the Cold War, yet it once was. Unfortunately that is what happens when you write a book based on current events, when those events change your work dates very quickly."
386781,1,Avoid this product,"We received the Smoothie Z SMZ500 for a christmas gift. At first it worked great (the first 3 times). Then the stir stick broke off at a seam. We glued that back together. Now the motor is DEAD after the FOURTH USE! I can't find a place that carries these to get it returned. It MIXED things really well, and I liked how the smoothies turned out - that part is great... but the durability of the design is aweful!"
386815,1,Caution,"If you think that the Temptations without Paul Williams and Eddie Kendricks ( I don't even dare say David Ruffin who departed so early) is still the mythic group that the World has come to know and love, then go ahead and buy this material. But if you are like me and go by the name or the blurred pictures on the advertisement, you may end up thinking that you are victim of a sad joke. Don't."
386846,1,poor shipping policy from vendor,"paid for expedited shipping. item didnt ship for 6 days. vendor didnt respond to first email, was nasty in response to second email. will never deal with this vendor again. love the product."
386850,1,Disappointing,"After using this book for two weeks here is what I did NOT find: 1) when you create a JList of Vector[] objects, what is displayed in the list is what the toString method of the objects returns. I found this out for myself with no clue from the book. 2) in order to display a JProgressBar it is not enough to use the serValue method of the bar. You need to update the display with pbar.paint(pbar.getGraphics()). Again, no clue from the book. 3) to get the JProgressBar to not flicker all that is necessary is to enable the double buffering property of JProgressBar, a big code saver over the code needed to double buffer in the AWT. Again, no help from the book. The book DOES explain how to use the JProgressBar in a thread that makes the call to paint unnecessary. However, this is NOT what I wanted or needed to do."
386853,1,Keep shopping.,"Don't get this phone. The sound quality is terrible - shrill, harsh, sometimes painful - and both the caller ID and voice mail died after a year or two. Our outgoing message now says: ""Call again during regular business hours.""I'm shopping for something better. There's not much out there.We tried an IP system a couple of years ago. Totally useless. Cut off conversations, dialed wrong numbers. We'll only use corded land-line phones now, because our phone calls are (surprise) important to us. I'm hoping the shoddy quality of our system is a Panasonic problem. The business phones I used twenty and thirty years ago sounded and worked great. What's going on?=O["
386876,1,Complete but not for learners,"This book delivers exactly what the title promises. It goes through Crystal Reports 10 screen by screen and feature by feature. It is well laid out and has lots of screen prints. There is way too much verbiage, at least for this reader.So what's the problem? The book desparately needs examples of how you actually DO some of the things it talks about in such detail. Crystal gives you some really nice sample reports, but they are all finished, not exactly easy to break apart and understand. If this book had some case studies (eg, now lets build the chart report of Quarterly Sales by Employee), I would have found it a whole lot more useful.Come to think of ut, I would trade this book in a minute for something more task-oriented and hands-on."
386908,1,Not like original - Mark Tiedemann is no Robert Silverberg,"I really can't read this book. The text does not flow like Asimov's books. It reads like something else. It is a littlke too fast paced, with too little dialogue and I think there is not enough reflection on the background and the possibilities.The basic premise has got something wrong with it. It's not tied in too well to other things.If Asimov would use any of these ideas,he would offer some explanation. Asimov also, by the way,often had some short third person narration interspersed inhis books and this is totally missing.Robert Silverberg expanded a few Isaac Asimov stories into books and he did it in keeping with Asimov's style. Robert Tiedemann is no Robert Silverberg. If Asimov had been alive, I don't thinmk he would have approved of this, except if he decided not to careI give it two stars because at least this is a try. Also, I only have this book,not its predecessor."
386924,1,Terrible....,"It worked the first time I used and then not at all. There was no phone number on the instructions (which were difficult to read and did not even include instructions on all the parts that were in the box), that I called them from the telephone number on their box and before I even described the problem, I was directed to print a form off the internet and to send the whole unit back!I think that if someone offers a product, the least they should do is to sort out problems quickly and without a fuss!"
387008,1,No resembelence to the real thing,"All I can say that Anna Tookson's negative review says it all and, if anything, is a bit generous. There is no resembelence of the renditions in this album to the real thing. If one was strictly interested in documenting the lyrics to the songs this could be a source, but there is none of the energy, fire and roughness that characterizes the real thing. Do a search on the Morgans and get their CD, it is infinitely superior."
387034,1,Fiction presented as Fact,"This could be an entertaining story if it was presented as a work of fiction. Unfortunately it is presented as fact and much of it is copied from other works. For full explanation see: Wikipedia ""The Archko Volume"""

387107,1,Closed Caption,I am very disappointment no closed caption or subtitles on this. I love Laurel & Hardy. I hope this make subtitles and closed caption sooner....
387157,1,I think I have a theory of sound quality,"I don't have this disc yet. I cancelled my order because of a few reviews stating bad sound quality on a lot of tracks. I found a similar track list on The Definitive Pop Collection Frankie Valli & the 4 Seasons by the same publisher, but it's 2 discs and has no sound quality complaints. Could the degraded sound quality be from squashing the same set list into one disc instead of 2? Since they're from the same publisher it's probably the same remasters."
387276,1,Some dvd players can't read the printable version of this brand.,The printable version of verbatim can't be read by some dvd players. I have panasonic and jvc dvd players and they can't read them. However the xbox dvd player can without a problem.It's the first time I buy this brand. Maybe I'll try the ones without the printable surface.I've always purchased Ritek and never had a problem. I purchased a 50 spindle of ridata 16x and have not had a problem yet on 30 of them yet. I usually burn at no faster than 12x anyways.
387301,1,SONY SUCKS,"this model is the same as the mdr-v250 despite the new color silver....i have had 2 pairs of them which both broke. they have terrible sound. i dont reccomend them. dont over estimate sony's reputation...you want some good headphones, never buy sonys, they suck"
387377,1,worst frame rate ever!!,I waited for months for this game to come out and when i actually got it I almost threw up at the poor graphics and the awful voice acting. the story can't be that great but I would not know as I sold it after playing it for ten minutes. There are not 300 job classes you can make your own however. I really doubt anyone who hadn't played the pc version was expecting this! and afterplaying this you will realize that it is all hype!RENT IT if you are really interested!
387409,1,Not worth it,Don't expect the computer to work. The first thing I did when I received it was to put in the battery. Nothing. It's not worth returning for the price.
387426,1,"Don,t waste your money! This thing is junk",I really wouldn't waste my money on this pile of crap. the sound quality is poor and the batteries go dead fast and over all it is junk. When you listen to CDs the player better not be moving or it will skip and the external speakers are useless so like I said don't waste your money on this unit you will be disappointed.
387443,1,Why can't I make good espresso from this machine?,"I freely admit that user error may be my problem here. I owned a Starbucks machine and finally decided to ""upgrade"". I had bought a machine for my parents and loved that I know longer had to prime the machine before every service. And I didn't have to call the manufacturer every three weeks when it vapor locked for no apparent reason at all.Having said all of that, my parents' machine (which is not this one and was $140) made great espresso. My machine could not seal, was difficult to set up and almost always leaked. As well, the frother is really a bit of a pain in the butt.I returned my unit (I had bought it from Costco). But if anyone has some suggestions on what I might have done better, that would be great.As an aside, do espresso machine manufacturers feel it necessary to make their instructions as difficult to follow as those from Ikea? I mean, really, folks: User experience is not brain surgery."
387468,1,Big Disappointment,"I expected more and was disappointed. Hayes could have made a real contribution by better documenting the crimes of corporate collusion. Hence, I'll stick with Crime and Punishment of IG Farben, which this book can't hold a candle to."
387477,1,Just okay.....No Craddle,This is my first bluetooth Headset. I am not sure if this is the way the bluetooth headsets perform but I am highly disappointed with this one. Lot of disturbance with frequent voice breaks. Talked to couple of friends using the Headset and all have same complain 'You Voice is Breaking'. I put it aside and started to talk directly from my cell and it was okay. So..it's the Headset.I took it because I would be on Road every wnd in summers but performance is really bad while driving. The ear loop is not well designed and Doesn't fits properly.If this is normal with other Bluetooth Headset then okay otherwise would not advice it.Returning Mine.
387516,1,Nutri-West Core Level Health Reserve - 120,"I was very disappointed with the supplier of this product as they were selling Nutri West Core Level Health Reserve that had not been properly stored or shipped. The product I received contained tablets that felt gummy and moist, as well as being darker in color. When I complained to the supplier, they replied that it was probably shipped and stored during hot weather (~100 degrees F), but if this is so, they shouldn't be selling it and should make sure that the product is protected properly during shipping and storage. I did appreciate it that they offered to reimburse me if I returned the product to them, but I haven't taken them up on their offer as I considered it too much trouble."
387545,1,a waste of money,"I purchased the monitor twice. I had to return the first one because it was not working properly. The second monitor worked great for about 3 months. At the 3 month mark, I started seeing grey lines going horizontally across the screen. If there are effective adjustments to fix this problem, I have not come across it. The manual mentions several adjustments to try but none seem to work. With the multiple horizontal grey lines going across my screen, I find the monitor to be almost useless. I have model 9410e."
387741,1,Sort of Disappointing,"I found this book a bit disappointing. I have high expectations of O'reilly books and have found them a treasure trove of valuable information. I was expecting the same in-depthness from this book. Unfortunately it seemed to me much more of a survey of the OS rather than delving into the nitty gritty of the subject matter.If you are new to Solaris it may be a great book, but it seems to me an experienced Solaris admin will be disappointed by this book."
387850,1,How to ruin your wii remote for the low price of $10,"Our family received one of this for Christmas. It seemed like a good combination of fit and function. However, when the wii remote was inserted in the carrier, one of the foam strips inside the carrier stuck to the infrared window. It has been impossible to remove this adhesive, and now the wii remote no longer works correctly. The foam strips are placed in such a way that there is no possible way to put the remote in without having the foam rub up against (and therefore possibly stick to) the infrared window.So even after this, if you still consider purchasing this item, be aware that you cannot use the remote to navigate any of the wii menus while it is inside the carrier. Based on the way the carrier is made, it would probably be only a matter of time before one of the foam strips broke off."
387860,1,Ultimate guide?,"This book comes with some good artwork and nice facts, but it is nowhere near what could be called an ultimate guide, it's more like a quick factbook. It spans very little of the toylines, and each series, in very few pages. I wouldn't recomend it for the fans to the extrreme fans unless you just want a nice small book with good artwork in it.Increase this book size by about 2000 pages and put a gigantic ammount of information in it, then maybe it would be a nice thing to buy, but comon a paragraph at most for each transformer other then the leaders, Unicron or Primus.Again in a nutshell this is not a book for any fan or diehard fan, it's more of a begginers book for children who have recently gotten into the Transformers via the series or the recent movie."
387886,1,Too much fluff,"Apart from the introduction to RFID in the initial chapters the rest of the book is of little use. For example - Chapter 17 is on ""Is outsourcing right for you"". Chapter 16 spends time on explaining why ROI should be used as a measure to evaluate RFID projects. I wish the author had stuck to core RFID concepts rather than mixing business strategy and finance issues. There are plenty of other sources available for that.Overall, the first half is a decent introduction to RFID concepts. Not nearly enough if you are embarking on a real project though."
387896,1,not what I remembered,"i gotta say I used to love this album back in the late 70's . just purchased again thru amazon here and it really isn't as good as I remembered . . .they are quite loose, the songs don't stand the test of time, the playing not nearly as great as I remember it to be. . . surprisingly rough on groove. . . . not a true classic - i thought it was"
387898,1,So REDUNDANT,"I loved Steel's early works. I read them all and they were great but have stopped reading her because her books are repetitive now. I decided to try once again just to see and this book was maddening!! It was 178 pages long and could have been all been said in 100 pages. It was obvious that she was stretching it to make it a hardback ""novel"" length to sale. Skip it."
387916,1,"Looks good, toasts terrible","This is a great looking toaster, but the main thing that a toaster should do, toast, it doesn't. I started out at a four setting and after a number of weeks of trying various settings, I am now down to a one. It is still burning my bread!"
388020,1,Would've been better if...,"I had read ""Sis Boom Bah"" a few months ago and thought it was hilarious. Although a very light read, it was SO funny it kept me in stitches!! Sometimes one needs a break from more literary writing!! :-) But I was disappointed with Cha Cha Cha, not so much because of the story line, but because the language was very crude. That turned me off! I hope her other books are cleaner than this one!"
388100,1,VERY DISSATISIFIED WITH SERVICE,"I received the remote immediately and then did not receive the ceiling fan after its estimated delivery date passed. After sending e-mails with no response, I received an e-mail from Amazon stating that the fan was out-of-stock. Now I am stuck with a remote that I can't use. I will never make another large purchase again."

388265,1,Collectors Guide to Wagner Ware and Other Companies with Prices,Save your money. This book has almost no information in it. The book contains only pictures with few dates and some old prices which don't take into consideration the condition of the item. It is very incomplete. I have a dozen Wagner skillets and couldn't find any meaningful mention of them in this book. I wanted to learn about the products that Wagner produced and when each series was manufactured. This book doesn't have any of that information in it. I hope I can find a book that does! Anybody want a used book for half off?
388277,1,Not a good choice for me,"It may be unrelated but I am unable to give this product a second chance. Perhaps it was a coincidence or perhaps the dosage was too high but after1-2 days of trying this product I had extreme intestinal cramps like I never experienced. I had started this product and had also changed to a new probiotic. The Monday after my Saturday/ Sunday cramping I just happened to have my yearly physical exam with a stool sample and it showed blood . I had to have this test repeated in several weeks and all was fine. Our guess was some problem with diverticula....was it coincidence that it occurred when I started two new products.. maybe...but I am unwilling to try it again. I regret saying this in case it was totally unrelated, which is possible."
388319,1,The Good Soldier Svejk,"Unfortunately, even with a new translation this book is a failure in English. Many of the subtle jokes and jibes are simply not recognizable to Western readers. Characters such as the vulture Bretschneider, raving Police Inspector Braun, the savage Dr. Grunstein, the drunken Chaplain Otto Katz, and all the others are simply the same character moved around a bit.Essentially, the same thing happens over and over. The English reader comprehends about half of it, and is left wondering why in the world he bought the book in the first place.I know I am."
388378,1,Rush Job,"This was another example of poor character and plot development. I grimace at the concept of calling this book a romance.These two people were not ""in love"" but rather lust. I found the behavior of both characters lacking. The best character of the entire book is the minister at the end of the novel. Don't waste your time on this one."
388422,1,rough textured plates,I gave this away. It catches my hair and pulls out too many strands. The plates are rough to the touch. A no go for me.
388514,1,All Bibles Are Not Created Equal,"I'm a college student studying web development and internet graphic design, and based on the quality of another ""Bible"" book I had recently purchased, the Photoshop 6 Bible - Gold Edition, I jumped at the Flash 5 Bible as soon as I saw it available. This book has turned out to be one of the worst instructional books I've ever read. The numerous grammar mistakes are bad enough, but the exercises themselves are full of mistakes, like this book was rushed straight past the editor and out the door. In one exercise, they refer to a movie clip, but fail to mention which movie clip in the library they're talking about! The Flash 5 Bible is a complete waste of time and money."
388545,1,don't waste your money,"This book may be cheap, but it's essentially useless unless you've never touched a computer keyboard and have no idea what a modem is. Someone clueless might find some help here, but the contacts and addresses--the bulk of the book--are incomplete and, of course, outdated."
388615,1,POOR CONNECTOR,The cheap plastic connector that connects to the hose broke right off the second time I used it. The engineer who designed it should be fired. Don't they do any product testing??? Very disappointed. DON'T RECOMMEND!!I subsequently emailed the manufacturer Easygardener...TWICE....about the problem. They never responded! Their customer service is even worse than their products!!!
388665,1,Unintentionally hilarious,"Two words summarise this book: Abject nonsense. With the marked exception of the chapter on Vietnam, which is suprising insightful and sensitive. Which makes the ludicrous ramblings of the other chapters all the more baffling!"
388668,1,Not a Null Modem Adapter,"Despite being sold, and labeled as, a null modem adapter, pins 2 and 3 are straight through. Unfortunately I wasted 45 minutes troubleshooting software and serial port settings before breaking out the multi-meter to verify pin wiring on this adapter.Look elsewhere (unless you need a simple DB-9 gender changer)."
388789,1,Boring.,"Saliva don't take any chances with their music, their lyrics are cliched, and anyone who is a fan of ANY type of music can find better examples of it than what they do here. They do not bring the rock like bands like Queens of the Stone Age, The Hives, Foo Fighters etc. They definetly don't play heavy music like bands like Pantera or Slayer. And if you are looking for moody and insightful lyrics go buy an Alice In Chains album."
388833,1,Misleading mAh,"Batteries are not only rated for the product they are compatible with but also their capacity. Some vendors do not list mAh (mili-Amp Hours) of capacity of the battery they are selling. High capacity batteries are more expensive but if this is not advertized, you can't tell and you can't compare.EA"
388839,1,Not worth the money,"I wanted this toy for my 2 year son after hearing that this is THE 'Toy of 2005'. I had hard time finding this toy as most of the places it was sold out. SO when I finally got it, I was very excited but that was short lived till I used it and programmed it. Elmo's voice is not clear and it doesn't do over 100 things which is advertised. Been a systems guy myself I think Elmo could have been much better. In the end, its not worth $40!!"
388854,1,They stink!,"These things literally stank so bad, we had to throw them away! We thought that they were a good value, so we'd give them a try, but that was a really bad idea. I think the one we gave our dog to see if she'd like it has scarred her for life. She used to love bully sticks all the time, now she'll only eat them (another and better brand) if she is bored or has nothing else better to do. These are a waste of money and they stink!"
388921,1,worthless,First one I used melted in the laminator. I now have to send it in to have it repaired. Spend your money wisely buy Scotch brand.
388932,1,What About Cartoons?,"Asma is cute and that is what sells the book. It's simple as all that.Dress up a cute Pakistani girl to show the world that a girl can go out into the big bad world of the decadent West and succeed and still remain a good Muslim.Well whta I would like to know is what does Asma feel about cartoons showing Prophet Mohammad whering a bomb in his turban? What about a cartoon where the Prophet beseeches madmen who blow themselves and others up not to do it ""Because there are no more virgins in Heaven?""How does Asma feel that so many of her fellow believers are going insane all over the world because of the cartoons and are burning and looting?"
388938,1,EZ--Lug wrench review,"The ""leverage socket screw knob"" has a design flaw, at least, when use with the extensions and on truck lugs. The bolt that is evidently spot welded into the knob breaks out. In our case there was rust between the bolt surface and the knob surface however we re-welded it and the bolt itself broke. This is because the loosness of the set up that puts the wrench in a bind with all the pressure being transfered to the knob. We cut down and ground down the sides of another extension and made a part that allows us to use it."
388952,1,Waste of Money,"Unfortunatly this product did not meet up to my standards. Open the package carefully so that it will be easier to return. Better yet, invest 5 bucks in a good pair of tweezers unless you enjoy a red chin or hair maybe or maybe not being pulled after fifteen minutes of trying."
389009,1,I'd buy it...............IF IT WASN'T UGLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"I saw this toy here on Amazon and wanted to buy her cause she was pretty, so i went into the store today to get her, and what a huge surprise!!!!!!! She's the ugliest doll ive EVER seen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I luv Kenzie and at one time was gonna buy Masquerade Madness Kenzie but they didn't have her either so i bought a new Bratz doll and i LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So don't buy THIS Kenzie....... Buy Masquerade Madness Kenzie or a bratz doll. =)"
389087,1,junk hose,bought this hose last yr. JUNK this yr. So I went to sears and bought 2 craftsman hoses 20.00 ea. that were on sale. life time replacement from sears even if you run over it with a mower. Beat that deal. last hose I'll pay for untill sears goes under.
389090,1,ONLY BUY IF YOU DON'T WANT YOUR KID BELIEVING IN THE TOOTH FAIRY!,"My four-year-old (who can read) found this book on his own accord. The kid hasn't even lost his first tooth yet and he's telling me that the Tooth Fairy isn't real! I was devestated and felt it necessary to post this review for all parents. When he showed me the book, it didn't appear to be something I needed to censor. Now what do I say to my son? The magic was lost before it could even be created. I think the publishers approved this book because it was written by a celebrity. Had it been any other author, someone might have thought twice before publishing a book like this. From a deeply saddened mom."
389143,1,INSULT to the original Rebecca novel,"I couldn't wait for Mrs. De Winter to be available and was not only disappointed, but angered that it was allowed to be published. I have had the pleasure of reading Rebecca at least five times in the past twenty years and was always impressed with the main character's strength and maturity when she finally made her stand. In Mrs. De Winter, the author totally lost sight of this strength of character and expected the reader to accept a weak and frightened child bride again. For anyone who has read the original Rebecca, it is clear that this book (Mrs. De Winter) was published to make money on it's success. Shame on the publisher and the estate of Du Maurier for allowing this. Rebecca is probably one of the best gothic novels this century, it even is pivital in a fairly recent Ken Follett novel of the same title, Rebecca, which I thoroughly enjoyed."
389236,1,dont buy this CD!,"this CD couldn't be further from what i wanted. i felt the reviews were very misleading and in my oppinion, completely unjustified.if you want sloppy love ballads that will make you cry with sadness rather than happiness. if you want boring and uninspiring songs for your wedding, then buy this CD, from me. it's for sale"
389238,1,Works but not much better than a hanger!,"I thought I would receive at least the local stations, but I only get two station in clear, that was the only improvement from not having an antenna!"
389257,1,Piano,"This movie is not as good as the new Whitney Houston ""Sparkle"" movie. The story is better told in the new Whitney one and also the music."
389278,1,Not a good thing,"I was disappointed. This pruning scissor cut through only very thin branches well, but dulled in days and became hard to use. Uncomfortable handles, too. Not what I would call a heavy-duty tool."
389362,1,"Great, when it works","The product worked as advertised, until it died.Further ANTonline refused to honor the warranty and I had to go directly to Mace which does not normally deal with private parties.Mace is no longer producing this item due to so many unit failures..If it dies all they can replace it with is a generic unit that does not have the motion detection or freeze frame features.If you are lucky and it continues to work, it works great.If it dies don't expect the same unit as a replacement.Avoid like the plague if you do not want to risk your $120."
389370,1,"Fine, but high defect rate.","The Saitek Eclipse II is a fine keyboard... it has the traditional layout for the cursor keys, which is critical to me, and controllable backlighting with a bit of sidelighting. That's all good. The feel is a smidge mushy but works well for fast typing.But... they aren't manufactured reliably. The biggest problem is half the spacebar not working. To fix this, you have to disassemble the keyboard, readjust the rubber membrane under, reassemble and readjust the spacebar springs. Do an internet search on the words ""fix saitek eclipse"" to get a sense of how common this is. Fixing it takes about 10 minutes, not a killer but kind-of annoying. I've had this problem with all three Saitek Eclipse IIs I've had.My only other gripe is that there's no power key (for putting the computer to sleep) on the keyboard."
389371,1,"Okay Looking, Bad Spendy Keyboard","Let me start by saying I have two Eclipse I keyboards *office and home) and have put them through their paces. They keys feel as solid and tight as they did the dirst day. The lighting has held up well.I was super excited about the II coming out. Better media keys, color choices, a dimmer knob...Only thing is if you want a keyboard you don't have to type on the Eclipse II is the one to get. The keys are mushy and cheap feeling. The glossy black platic is a finger print magnate (which given fingers are all over it...). The media keys are cheaper feeling. The dimmer knob on mine was loose and felt very cheap. The backlighting itself... the red and purple were acceptable, but the blue was too dark and too dim to be of use. Given my rig has blue lighting, this was a sticking point.I would look at the first Eclispse or the Logitch well before goign witht he Eclipse II. It is not worth it for looks or performace."
389382,1,What a Disappointment!,"Santa brought this for my six year old and what a disappointment. It worked at first, not well, but at least it played CDs. Then it just stopped playing CDs. Never could get much AM/FM reception and the top six inches of the antenna broke off very early on. Ridiculously poor quality. I wasn't expecting a lot for the price, but I expected it to work longer than a couple of weeks. A complete waste of money."
389430,1,How could they have gone so wrong,"Well the fact is this is a game you shouldn't buy... unless you see it in a $5 bargain Bin, and only if your curious, but I'm tellin ya it's a waste of time. It looks good. Actually it looks great. I just can't for the life of me figure out how they could have screwed the camera up so bad. The fact is you have no control of the camera it zooms in and out on it's own, and moves to akward angles. This can be really frustrating ecpesially when your getting shot at by archers and the camera zooms in so you can't dodge. I got to the second level and never touched the game again. In fact I traded it for Resistance. It could easly have been a good launch title if they didn't ignore years of what other 3d action games could have taught them."
389475,1,Ugly uncomfortable boots!,These boots are very uncomfortable and rigid. You won't be able to bend your ankles (like going up a stair case) and will have to walk like a robot! I had to return these boots because i couldn't walk normal in them!
389485,1,woops!,"I should have ordered the white ones. I have bought assorted colors and prints in the store .. where I could see them. Nice pastels like in the pictures. I never imagined that anyone would make these in bright vivid large polkadot and electric colors. They look like clown pants... lol. I can't where them with anything without them showing through. I'ed advise you order white.... unless you like to reeeeeally walk on the wild side!! Just my size is a great product and they are the best britches I have ever bought for comfort and fit and they don't shrink up two sizes like others I have bought and they last for a ling time. they don't fall apart or the elastic shred. just... whew... shouldn't make those awful colors or they should say that you are going to get bright ... or pastel colors before you buy.. and not just get.""assorted"" colors of their choosing."
389491,1,Incomplete manual,"This manual is like most other car manuals with step by step instructions on how to do most repairs and maintenance on your vehicle. Where this manual falls short is where it has makes references to leaving the job to a professional mechanic. An example of this is chapter 10-8. I purchase these manuals for instruction on how to do the repairs myself. I was totally shocked to see this in this manual. It's quite easy today to rent or even purchase the tools needed to do most jobs. Because of this, I cannot give a higher rating to this manual. I will have to check with Chilton to see if they make this same comment."
389647,1,Was disappointed in the PupSTEP,"I purchased this product for my Italian Greyhound with the expectation it would be great to take the stress off her long legs. I have found that the steps are so close together that she has to hunch her body together to use them. They are not as sturdy as I expected them to be. She only weights 12 lbs but they seem almost fragile. I did not think they look very good in my home as the entire thing is plastic. I will give this purchase to my son for his older, smaller dog and hope they can use it."
389758,1,Not the Greatest :-(,"This tripod was purchased for use with high power celestial binoculars. The quality is so-so; they move and when using binoculars of this magntitude, even the slightest movement is problematic. I don't know how they'd be for other applications."
389768,1,Check out the Internet reviews before buying anything from Lou,"There are bad reviews all over the internet from this guy for doing what he did when we bought a juniper from him. He promises one thing and sends another. He then promises to replace it, but the replacement is as bad as the original. Be careful. This guy isn't a merchant you want to do business with."
389778,1,Doesn't smell like grass at all.,"The candle has a pleasant scent, but it is perfumy and not at all like cut grass. No one who I've shared it with think so either. So, it's not worth it at all if you want something that smells like cut grass."
389810,1,Disappointing live effort,"Terri played in California this summer, and I saw her for the first time. I bought this CD at her concert, and I was disappointed that the album didn't capture the feeling I got at the show. That is to be expected, but this CD seems particularly unrepresentative of a Hendrix live performance. I bought another live album of hers and it was much better, still not the same experience, but closer than this."
389813,1,What SAP BW version ???,"Nowhere in the book, nor on Amazon detailed info nor in the ""view pages inside"" is mentioned that the book treats BW 2.0 and IS NOT GOOD for BW 3.1 or later.I had to read all the buyers reviews and to find out about the BW version, only after I had the book ordered and sent to me. So Because I use 3.2 I have sent back this book. It's not up-to-date, there seems not to be a reprint for BW 3.0So it was not useful to me. I am very disappointed.The book can show you some tasks to do in BW 2.0 but it learns you nothing if you have other cubes to make in different SAP applications.Also, it does not mention the transaction names behind the screens printed. Pitty, since this could have helped us when working in BW 3.0 (screens and menus can change but often the TX's remain the same)..."
389840,1,What were they thinking?,"Cartoony look, terrible control, shocking violence, repetitive gameplay. The cutscenes are hand drawn still pictures. The main character -Rau- is difficult to move about and he gets stuck on everything. Collision detection is terrible. And as for the ""innovative"" fight controls, it amounts to little more than button mashing. Halfway through the second ""mission"" -walk along and kill everyone you come across- your sword begins to get stuck in something every time you swing it. Frustrating, dull, and stupid. I quit."
389865,1,Not Very Interesting,"I rented Super Mario Sunshine instead of buying it, and I'm glad. (It's always a good idea to rent a game first...The graphics are gorgeous, and the sound is good too (I don't usually pay that much attention to sound in games, so I can't really evaluate it).This is probably one of those ""love it or hate it"" games. I found the premise -- Mario is falsely accused of splattering a resort town with paint, and is sentenced to community service cleaning up the mess -- cute but not compelling.The camera drove me crazy. Yes, it's (usually) 360 degrees, but it's also almost always pointed the wrong way. I liked it better when a game's camera would automatically point in a logical direction, even if that meant I couldn't control the camera.Lots of people love this game. If you want a traditional ""kill monsters and pick up trinkets"" platform game in a 3-D environment, you'll love it too..."
389902,1,"Patti's Gospel. . .Go live, Miss Patti. . .go live!!!","After reading what Patti has said in concert about not judging her, I respectfully withdraw my original comments about the album. As usual, Patti's big heart. . .and big mouth, win me over, no matter how much I might find lacking in her recordings. I strongly believe she should do a live gospel ablum/CD compilation a la ""Going Home to Gospel."""
389917,1,Moldy Cookies,"When I recieved the Breakfast cookies they were covered in white hairy mold. I assume that this was due to trapped condensation in the packages. BUT EH GROSS! I have ordered these cookies from here before and had no issues, and Amazon was quick about refunding the item, but I don't think I'll purchase them again."
389937,1,cap cracks easily causing leaking,"I bought four of these bottles at the same time. One arrived w/ a cracked cap. I just discovered a second w/ a cracked cap. I either screwed it on too tightly (unlikely) or it hit the bottom of the cage as I moved it (most likely). If it fell, it fell only a few inches. The plastic used in the cap is a hard brittle type and not a more flexible type making it susceptible to cracking. I can't recommend these bottles.I've tried three or four other bottle brands recently and the one I've liked the best is sold under various names. It's an opaque white plastic 8 oz bottle w/ pictures of gerbils around the top in blue print and vertical blue stripes running nearly the length of the bottle. It has a rubber ring around the top of the bottle. I haven't seen this bottle on Amazon but bought them at my local pet store. The Super Pet flat bacs have been pretty good so far too."
389972,1,DO NOT BUY IT simply messy,"i was trying to find out what they are trying to say ,i did not get it !!! i thought there might be somthing wrong with me !!look at what the other peoples wrote and you will know.i think who give this book 5 starts are trying to sell it !!!!!!!!!!"
390012,1,Misguided Guide Book,"For a reference book it is disappointing that this book sets forth so much misinformation and so many inaccurate facts. Although the work does not pretend to be neutral, the extent of the author's prejudices is disturbing. He has a nasty word for almost everyone reviewed, in the manner of a supercilious school-master. The entry for Schenker gives the wrong first name and completely misconstrues the nature of his work. The entry on Sessions is patently hostile, and characterizes the Second Sympony as 12-tone, which it is not. The book as a whole, entertaining as it may be, is woefully untrustworthy."
390067,1,Smelly and useless,"I purchased this carafe on Amazon's Habit site. It had an odd smell inside prior to use, so I cleaned it throughout and filled with hot water to warm it while a pot of coffee brewed. When I opened it to empty the water out, the smell was still there so I washed again and let it air dry for a day. Next try, same thing, but I was thinking I was just being picky, so in the coffee went. Yes, the carafe 'flavored' my coffee.At this point it was too late to return, so I left baking soda in it to deodorize it and tried again. I took the top apart and washed every nook and cranny. Long story short, the smell doesn't matter because the carafe will not keep anything hot longer than an hour."
390118,1,Didn't have three disc,I love the movie but it did not have three disc as I thought. The movie is in very good shape
390142,1,Thoroughly overated earbud,"I've read many a review waxing on about these earbuds but having listened and compared them to many other units imho they are overated and overpriced. They seem totally unbalanced with a muddy boomy bottom end and a high end that tends towards sibilance. Some bass improvement can be made by putting small pieces of tape over the three holes on the back of each earbud, but I much prefer Koss KSC-50 and Sennheiser MX 500. If you absolutely have to have an ear seal I can't recommend anything more than the Etymotic ER4S although pricey."
390167,1,Very disappointed,"Not a great product.Likes. Nice size, controls work ok.Dislikes. Sound quality is poor. AM reception is pathetic. Charger quit working after three months so into the garbage it go's.China junk..."
390220,1,I really tried to like it...,"SWG is currently like an exquisitely carved toy box encrusted with gems. It is beautiful to look at, large enough to hold tons of wonderful toys, and even the lid opens well. Unfortunately this toy box only contains two small rubber balls, a handful of blocks that all have the same letters on them, a small pile of various broken toys with sharp edges, and quite a lot of dust and cobwebs.It breaks your heart to see how many things in SWG are done so right such as the graphics, animation, and even the powerful interface, yet see so many things done poorly. Many months after release much of the sparse content is still buggy or broken. The monthly story arcs are flat and unimaginative. Everything in the game requires tedious and repetitious behavior with little variety between low level and high level content. The galactic civil war is a joke.Lastly, it just isn't Star Wars.Maybe given another year or two this game will be worth paying a monthly fee for."
390221,1,Don't Buy This Game!,"What a waste of money! I've spent a week trying to get this thing to work. The online support either doesn't work, they're off for the day, or gives advice that doesn't work. They should be paying me to go through this. Don't buy it! Spend your money on another product."
390229,1,Juvenile attempt at writing,"Written by an author who cannot stay with one character for more than a page at a time, jumping from place to place and forgetting the character development completely, Perry manages to entertain only the least demanding of audiences. For an adult, the extremely bad dialogue, cliches and complete lack of a decent plot (could not be more predictable) make this a torture to read"
390232,1,Cute but motor never worked,"I purchased this toy rottweiler last Christmas as a gift for a friend to his a rottweiler fanatic -- unfortunately right out of the box the motor was broken and so the breathing motion never worked correctly -- or at all. Nonetheless, she likes the puppy."
390257,1,Psychological / Sociological study,"The destruction of the world was just meant to set up the drama concerning how various men would treat women if there were no law to influence their behavior. We have Jasper the brute, who only wants to possess the woman. A fearful creep who wants to violate her and the decent man who wants to love her. Primitive but interesting because of the age of the film."
390423,1,No real help.,I bought this book when I was in my junior year of college and it was just confusing the topic even more. I found Statistics for the Utterly Confused much more helpful.
390434,1,Not my favorite,"I really thought I would like this tea, but I ended up giving it away. I like white teas, but I like green even more. I also generally like raspberry, but this combo didn't work for me. I won't buy it again."
390487,1,not what i saw from picture,"This item ran small for an x-large.. so it did'nt fit at all.. also there was no buckle on the lower back, which was supposed to accent a waist line like it showed on the picture.. so... not sure! All I really can say that don't believe mostley everything you see on the pictures that they provide...Although... I did get my refund back pretty quick and purchased another.. which was Rocawear and was 2x this time and did'nt show a picture of back area which when my jacket arrived found rocawear lettering on the back shoulder length area which i did not like... did extra work to undo the stiching.. and finally I am able to wear.. {suggestion to amazon}..may be show pictures of all sides of products so the cunsumer sees what he/she is really purchasing.. then probably will be 100% satisfied with product... afterall... these products are not cheap!!! Thnx with kind regards, {1/2 satisfied}"
390524,1,Disappointing grinder -Coarse grind,"I always use the highest setting for grinding, but it comes out very coarse. I have to finish grinding my coffee in a blade grinder to use it in my espresso machine. Otherwise, the coffee comes out completely white. I did not go for a cheaper grinder thinking I could invest a bit more a get a better product, but this was a waste of money."
390548,1,"great, until the seal on the lid fails","I got 4 of these jars based on the reviews and a 4 for 3 Amazon deal, and they were perfect for about 5 months, until 2 of the 4 lids lost their ability to hold steam and heat."
390570,1,Don't bother to buy it!,"I got this as a Christmas gift & was pleased in the beginning. Then the door wouldn't open using the remote or the front panel buttons. Customer service is a bad joke; they don't answer their 800 number. It took 2 hours of being on hold to find out there is no local service available,you have to send it in for repair. If you read other customer reviews, this unit is notorious for the door not opening. Liteon is aware of the poor design yet they choose to not correct the problem. Avoid it at all costs. They managed to lose my unit & I have been unable to trace it."
390611,1,Price is listed at $1204.93. Can this be right??,"Price is listed at $1204.93. Can this be right?? I am reading the reviews, and might want to read this book, but for a 100-page rant, I can't see paying that much money! Must be a misprint of some kind, but I won't buy until it's fixed. Also, I'd like to read it on Kindle for PC. Thanks!"
390617,1,Product Warrantee,"I gave this product one star ""not"" because it was inferior, but of the warrantee. Warning, JVC no longer carries this product in stock so they will only replace this product in regards to the price you've paid for it. So if you're a bargain shopper, you'll end up with less than what the product is worth. For example, a $100 item at 90% off will be $10 (plus minus sales tax etc). JVC will allow you to replace this item with a new item valued at only $10. My HA-RX500 full size over the ear headphones soon was reduced to the HA-FX20-BR ear buds."
390641,1,Not much of a book,"A collection of peoples' success stories in maintaining some sort of amicable relationship post-divorce. While many of the stories are inspiring, the book is written in a hodge-podge fashion arranged around subject matter but sharing quotes from the same people over and over. I would have preferred chapter by chapter couple studies that went in depth into the various stages each couple went through as they dealt with their scenarios.Large print, small format, wide margins, large spacing try to mask that this book simply isn't very long. As another reviewer said, an ""easy read""; that's a nice way of putting it."
390668,1,Don't purchase this DVD,"My children have the other 2 dvds of ""Thou Shalt Laugh"" and have found them very humorous. My husband and I had also enjoyed the first 2. I purchased this third edition for my children for Christmas. They had not yet opened it, so my husband and I watched it last night. I cannot express the anguish I felt as not just one but most all of the artists had too many comments to count that were unacceptable. Most all referred to ""sex"", and some mentioned it outright. Natural conception and invitro-fertilization were explained. Had my children been watching this with us, we would have had questions every few minutes about what they were talking about. My children have been raised very conservative and are naive to many worldly matters. For this, I am thankful. If you're looking for comedy consistent with the first 2 ""Thou Shalt Laugh"" dvds, forget this one - it's not worth watching. My children will only be allowed to watch Taylor Mason from this DVD."
390670,1,"Really not ""the right words""",This book was not what I was looking for. It is just a collection of greetings that you would find in cards. They really don't mean much. I was looking for something more unique.
390671,1,fraught with factual errors and incorrect data,"YES, yes, yes, I know that this author seems to be writing more to impress than convey, but that is irrelevant. Whyat is relevant is the long list of wrong discographies, wrong years and absolutely ridiculous botched attempts at describing bands (anything heavier than Nazareth is probably death metal to this dude). Good for knowing his opinion, but awful for retrieving information."
390713,1,Not the bag it used to be,"I should have listened to other reviewers. A friend has this identical-looking bag, but bought it years ago. There is definitely a difference between his and mine. His has held up very well, it's sturdy, the arm doesn't wiggle and it's clearly taken abuse and is still in great shape. Mine looks good, has a good amount of room for all the files and two computers I travel with, but after only a few weeks I'm worried the arm is going to break off. I'll continue to use it for the time it holds up, but am saving up for a much better bag."
390742,1,Good Deal?,"Whereas we like the product itself, I was surprised that the sticker still attached to it said $7.99 instead of the 9.99 we paid for it (without shipping). It is soft and adorable."
390760,1,not for me....,I was diappointed in this ...too much mumbo jumbo about mental illness...not enough concentration on the inspector...and the ending was terrible....
390783,1,Deceiving cover,"The book is nice for people who would like to know a bit more on diamonds in general. If, however, you would like to have in-depth details of this fabulous gem, then there are much better quality books, like ""Diamonds"", second edition by Eric Bruton, or the GIA provides some nice books; Lord Ian Balfour has written an outstanding work on ""Famous Diamonds"". All in all, ""Diamonds: a Century of Spectacular Jewels"" is a nice coffeetable book, but then, if its just the pictures you like, why not buy a copy of ""Magnificent Jewels"" by Christie's, these sales are held twice a year, both in New York as well as in Geneva (Switzerland); and the photos (not to mention the prices - before AND after the sales!!) will take your breath away!"
390788,1,bad speaker phone,"I love the talking caller ID, but I also bought it to use the speaker phone feature. The speaker phone fades in and out. I was going to take it back and get another one but after reading the other reviews, I'll just take it back and look for something else. I'm very disappointed."
390867,1,Cheapy,I loved this toy as a child and thought a light would be a great addition. However out of the package the twirler was not able to properly stay on the track. After a few seconds the twirler became crooked and was not be able to move on the track. Frustrating for adults. I would recommend finding a similar but better quality spinner.
390935,1,Nice enough except for the lock nuts that drive you nuts instead of locking,"The lock nuts all worked loose in less than an hour forcing me to stop and replace them one by one.It is a shame, as it is mostly a nice looking product, but having it repeatedly fall apart in your hands is frustrating with any product, but especially one you are likely to be using outside in bad weather."
390952,1,Trashy music-terrible,"This track is the tackiest, most vulgar thing I have ever heard. She should be ashamed of herself for having produced it. An embarrassment to women everywhere."
390975,1,"Exact copy of ""The Best Book of Spaceships"", by same author","The book itself is totally fine, but we ordered it together with another book by the same author, called ""The Best Book of Spaceships"", and 90% of the pages are the exact same. It's bogus for an author to make two separate titles with the same book, and bogus for Amazon to sell both unless it has an obvious disclosure that the books are redundant. Amazon shouldn't even let you put both in your cart unless you click to agree that the books are the same."
390994,1,A little too casual for my tastes,"I really wanted to like this book and thought because of what one of the other reviews said, the h would act with a little restraint. Needless to say she didn't hold out for long and for the rest of the book seemed quite happy to behave like a common prostitute. I really hate the fact that despite the time period both the H and h behaved like a modern couple.When they parted for the first time, he was so casual with her knowing he wouldn't see her again and knowing he took her innocence. Later we're supposed to believe that they are in love.Clearly I'm too old fashioned for a book like this and the story just wasn't believable."
391000,1,does not fit,This item does not fit a 2007 Wrangler. Spark plug boots are angled and will burn up. Do not buy this item.
391003,1,Too little too much,"Good quality product, the real issue is that there isn't enough tint to do more than one full size automotive window (side) and not much more, maybe a wing window."
391033,1,Broke during installation,"Package arrived with wrapping that looked like it was bought and returned from a hardware/home diy store and then sat in the warehouse for a few decades. Product looked okay, though. The screw holes sheared during installation, and I returned the product and received a full refund."
391088,1,"Works, but not happy with it...","This pedal works fine, it came standard with my Yamaha DGX620. As I use it on carpet, it slides around way too much. Not sure how it would be on a hardwood floor or maybe with a rubber mat, but I will be upgrading it to a bigger pedal. Nothing more annoying than when you're playing a beautiful song and have to fiddle with your feet to move the pedal back to where you need it! Plus, if you're used to using a standard piano pedal, it does feel different. But, the advantage is it lessens foot/leg fatigue as you don't need to have your foot off the floor, you can literally use your toe to press it."
391093,1,poor quality,very poor microphone. I tried this for a few days and unfortunately had to return this item as the audio quality was well below my expectations.
391138,1,"Nice idea, but it doesn't work","I tried it for two weeks, needed to reapply every day and still it didn't work. Waste of money."
391162,1,"I love Ray Liotta, but...","This was cheesy, formulaic, forshadowing, got weaker as it went on, etc, etc. Ray, you are still the man, but don't do another movie like this. :)"
391227,1,Low speed not low,"I really like the case it comes in, but the lowest speed is quite fast. The whips do not go in their slots easily either."
391310,1,Totally WORTHLESS!!,Tried to save a few bucks with this POS. DO NOT BUY IT! How a company can feel good about sending trash like this out the door I will never know. At least it gives me the experience to stay away from ANYTHING made by Flo Tool.
391421,1,The Cure for All Diseases,"Don't waste your money. No human can possibly have any kind of a life and live like this woman wants you to...perhaps if you live in a plastic bubble...no wait, I'm sure she wouldn't want you exposed to plastic...make that a glass bubble. Maybe her ideas work..I don't know because I have to work and to live like this would take all day. If your life is totally unbearable you could try this I guess."
391449,1,sound likea buncha hicks,"i listen to this cd. i liked the musical talent behind the band. but the singers are annoying. one of them sounds like a goat ... , and the other one keeps screaming... im not into that. but i still give the instrumental aspects credit. but over all, this album [stinks]. gives me a headache"
391451,1,Not the quality I was looking for,"I purchased this microphone & I am returning it the same day. I was looking for a microphone that would work with my pc & had a little better quality than the standard ones you get with a new computer. Sound coming from this was so lo, windows couldn't even detect a voice being transmitted.Can't complain too much, it was less than $10. I have not tried this product with other devices. I use my pc for all of my recording."
391494,1,Poor,This was a Christmas gift and product we received is defective. We have to send back for a refund and purchase another locally. Sandisk went online with us and checked to be sure product was not functioning properly. Their customer service was good.
391525,1,Sony MDR-IF240RK Wireless Headphone System,"I have owned 2 other pair of Sony wireless headphones over the years. I was excited about the size and open air features of these. I was VERY disappointed in the lack of range. My other Sonys allowed me to walk out to get the paper without any appreciable loss of sound. These, however are terrible! You cannot even turn a corner without total loss of sound. I recommend you keep looking!Sony MDR-IF240RK Wireless Headphone System"
391531,1,TV screen causes loud static interference with infrared,"This product is useless. The TV screen generates enough light to majorly affect the infrared rays that are used to transmit the signal. As a result, total noise if you're sitting in front of a large flat-screen TV (42 inches). Also, due to being infra-red it transmits only line of sight, so if anyone or anything comes in the way, instant noise and you can't hear a thing."
391591,1,"sounds great, BUT...","the wire is falling apart. The rubber on the cord has deteriorated and now the internal wires are exposed. This happened to my friend's pairs (he got one replaced) as well. Even though the sound is great, it won't matter if it doesn't work.I'm surprised about the quality, because all of my other Sony products are still going strong after 10+ years."
391695,1,It's a bust,Same experience as other reviewers who used it with the Zune 80GB - tons of static noise that makes charging and listening at the same time unbearable. Bought it as part of the Travel Pack and it's the only one out of the 3 components that doesn't work. Bummer. I was really looking forward to never worrying about my Zune running out of juice on long road trips.
391696,1,Much ado about nothing,"Seemed very shallow as though it was written for 1 purpose only, to sell. Nothing but a bunch of anecdotal stories that have aleady been recounted over and over again in your standard MBA program with a sampling of Public Speaking 101 class thrown in. Kind of like being invited to dinner, expecting a big t-bone steak and baked potato, and only getting salad. I think the author would approve of that imagery"
391722,1,Dissatisfied,I ordered the Blomus Stainless-Steel Flask. Amazon states in the product details that this flask is Made in Germany. This is a lie! The flask arrived today and it is made in China. I am returning it. Amazon should get its facts straight. I will be ordering less from Amazon in the future!Dissatisfied customer!Albert Brock
391746,1,Coffee-table book +,"Undoubtedly this is a book of fine photographs and drawings. And for many architects and students that is more than enough. They want to be inspired, and to get a feeling for the material qualities of architecture. They indeed need few words. But Weston's book makes a claim to be more than that. It claims to be a historical monograph. But we get little sense of the strangeness, the Otherness, of Finnish culture. Aalto could more or less be designing anywhere. Reference to Finland is merely stereo-typical ""nature"". Aalto remains as elusive as ever."
391750,1,Broke within 5 mins,I bought this storage binder box to store my negatives. The rivets that hold the three ring binder in place broke within 5 minutes of getting it out of the box it was shipped in. Very low quality. I would not recommend this item.
391762,1,my basic instinct,"Basic instinct is probably a good book. Unfortunately I never received it, in spite of the fact tha Amazon has collected the money for it. There is no way of complaining, and every attempt to know where the book is will fail. Only automated replies arrive, but the money Amazon has collected is real. I am very disappointed."
391817,1,Slow plot and weak characters,"for one thing, the book was slow - it took forever to get exciting. But most maddening was the character of Ellie. She was supposed to be a police officer, but she was a complete and total wimp, constantly breaking into tears and having to be comforted by the hero. She was completely unbelievable as an officer of the law, and completely unprofessional as well - it is ridiculous that she would not call in the cavalry as soon as Kelso was kidnapped. She doesn't even wait to see if he's okay before driving off on an errand of her own and then manages to get herself captured as well when all she had to do was make a single call to the precinct to come and rescue them both. She was there only to be the love interest and a victim that Kelso had to rescue. Their romance was completely contrived and unrealistic also, and I was annoyed at Herbert's habit of calling her the ""girl"" in a demeaning fashion when she really should have been called a ""woman"""
391837,1,Horrible,"I taught I was going to be getting a Techno CD but I got like a Aerobic music lol, too bad I was in Iraq and my net connection was not that good to preview the songs. Do not recommend it."
391854,1,depressing drivel,"I decided to read this because I usually enjoy Danielle Steele's books. However, I felt that this was just a bit too depressiing and mocks women who have battled cancer. I regret wasting my time reading this. The story seemed too contrived inparts and in some I was actually thinking to myself this is crap! I know a lot of people will disagree with me but I think that she is capable of better writing than this."
391938,1,garmin 2610,The unit works but the software does not on my Windows Me. I got a few instructions from Garmin but nothing works. The unit is useless without the detail maps. Spend the extra money on something that requires no uploads.
391961,1,Tastes bitter,"Mac n Cheese makes a great late night meal, and it's great comfort food. I picked up a couple boxes of the new Organic version, assuming it would taste the same. The first box tasted so bitter that I had to toss it all. I thought maybe I had a bad box, so I gave it another try, but it still tastes disgusting. Has anyone else noticed this?"
391965,1,Too sweet.,Other artificial sweetners are cheaper and work just the same. This is actually too sweet. I only use a half packet in coffee and that's almost too much.
391974,1,Design becomes a distraction.,"The over-designed nature of this book makes it a bit difficult to read. Content is fairly good, which is why this is a bit of a disappointment."
391985,1,Low quality control!,"stones seem to be fine but 600 grit stone is not straight, it has concavity! that's why, I can not finish sharpening my knives, if I use defected stone, knife gets another angle and i have to start sharpening from the beginning..Because of 1 stone, the whole system becomes useless.. I'm very upset with this purchase, next time I'll be aware of this brand.P.S I tried to sharpen my Cold Steel SRK but as it appears the red bolt is short to hold such a thick knife parallel.."
392015,1,una porqueria,"this cd is a waste, don't spend your money on it. You're better off buying another cd of Ricky Martin. He has nothing to do with this album."
392044,1,I can't get it to work!,"Okay, I absolutely loved the old sim theme park game, so I figured I'd treat myself to the new fancy-shmancy version. Yeah. right. This stupid game won't work on my computer! You need to have a CERTIFIED DRIVER to work it, and many computers (or at least of ppl i know) don't have this. It crashes my computer constantly, and I can't figure out how to make it compatible with my system. btw, any suggestions for this problem would be greatly appreciated! thanks!"
392089,1,fearful customer care and follow-up,"I ordered the micro mem card and I recieved it promptly and at a good price.Shortly there-after, it failed. I contacted them and they were quick on the emails and sorta helpful. The disc turned out to be totally defective. In the last email, I was told a replacement would be here shortly, and WOULD I CONSIDER REPLACING WHATEVER POOR FEEDBACK I MAY HAVE POSTED WITH A FAVORABLE ONE? I replied that I would be happy to, AFTER I received a working card. That was 2 weeks ago and still no card.P.S. I already purchased another from another company and it works fine."
392111,1,GET A NEW JOB,"GET A NEW JOB YOU HORRIBLE PIANIST, January 10, 2004Reviewer: A music fan from NYCYour music has NO melody. It is just BLA. So why don't you just find another trade to go into...because music is WAY out of your capabilities....essentially...YOU SUCK"
392175,1,I've found better endings lurking inside used tissues.,"I admit I'm not a fan of Stephen King, but I will say Stephen King is very talented at bringing his characters to life. In all his novels I've read he has masterfully delved into the psyche of his characters; creating a very original and believable cast.HOWEVER, this book, like all his others, had an ending that made me feel cheated out of two days of my life.A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME!"
392220,1,"Well...........I still like ""The O'Reilly Factor""","Nothing against Bill O'Reilly personally, he seems like a nice guy. It's just that reading this book is like walking up a flight of stairs holding an empty cardboard box the size of a Kenmore refrigerator. I wanted to finish as soon as I could and go play Super Nintendo. The dialogue between the poorly developed characters was especially awkward. And that other ex-GNN correspondent flat-out vanished! Maybe he found a better plot..."
392333,1,Don't buy this DeLonghi oven,"This oven is terrible. Mine lasted less than 4 months before the heating element on the top in the front melted, bowing down, so that you could easily burn your hand when taking something out of the oven. A terrible fire hazard, it finally stopped working before burning up, thankfully. DeLonghi customer service is incredibly unhelpful. Since this has happened to me, I've heard nothing but horrible things about other DeLonghi products. Heed my advice: stay away from DeLonghi, spend less money, and be safe!"
392381,1,Bad,"Maybe I did it wrong (although I followed the directions) but the stuff behaved just like boot polish would have. It was a bit greasy and it hardened to my mustache. What is more, it is not a natural shade of black so it looks very foolish when it is stuck in your beard and mustache. I would recommend trying a different product."
392384,1,Did you just repackage Qwik?,"So I figured I'd try this stuff out after reading some reviews. The neutral wasn't available where I picked it up, so bought the brown. Now, I would say I have brown hair and facial hair. I would also say ""dark brown"" over ""light brown"", but apparently not.First time I put this on I really thought I was rubbing shoe polish on my face. I immediately washed it off. I tried again, and it really darkened my moustache...okay, so I gave it another try. I did like the hold it provided, but between the color - I know it can't be perfect, but comment on the neutral was that it stuck out on dark hair - and the scent...man, that doesn't seem like a manly scent to me, but more of...well...shoe polish.2 Starts because the hold wasn't bad."
392418,1,Hated this.,"Even though this looks like your kids can play with this set, they will have a hard time. There are a bizillion pieces (even the hair comes off the figures) that don't stay together. The back drop is way too flimsy to do anything but stay in one location without being touched. If I wanted something this delicate, I wouldn't have bought a plastic nativity set."
392423,1,The worst of this series!! Save your money!,"I have been so let down by this book. I was hoping for so much more for ""C"". The romance just wasnt there. Just skip this book and continue with the rest of the series. Save your money!!! Not worth it!!"
392445,1,MY RECENT EX[ERIENCE WITH THIS DELOELONGHI PRODUCT,"I'VE NEVER HAD SUCH A A BAD EXPERIENCE WITH SUCH A HIGHLY RATED AND MUCH-TOUTED TOASTER OVEN.PURCHASED IT WITH MUCH HERALDED RATING.HOWEVER, LIVING WITH IT WAS A NIGHTMARE.BOTTOM ELEMENTS REQUIRED FOR TOASTING, NEVER LIT UP.,CRUMB TRAY-- FOR REMOVAL WAS IMPOSSIBLE!AFTER FIRST FEW USAGES, CRUMB TRAY WOULD NOT MOVE IN OR OUT.ALMOST CUT MY FINGERS TRYING TO MOVE IT AS THE INNER EDGE IS VERY SHARP.ONLY PART OF IT WAS FAIRLY GOOD BAKING..BUT TOASTING TOOK VERY LONG. DIAL INDICATORS NOT EXPLICIT.BOOKLET FOR USE INFORMATION WRITTEN IN SUCH SMALL PRINT MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT FOR SOMEONE WITH NOT GOOD VISION, IMPOSSIBLE TO READ..AND PRINTED ON VERY INFERIOR PAPER.ALL IN ALL,IT'S BEEN A MISERABLE EXPERIENCE AND HAD TO RETURN IT TO RETAILER, WHO ACCEPTED RETURN WITHOUT PROBLEM.EITHER I GOT A ""LEMON"" OR THIS IS ONE BAD DESIGN!"
392514,1,"Buyer beware, used items","I really wish Amazon let you distinguish feedback on the order fulfillment vs the product itself. The trimmer I recieved was apparently used before, because there were a few hair trimmings left in the blades. From other reviews, apparently I'm not the only one; maybe ALL of these are used and some are just cleaned better, or looked at less closely by the recipient.I was not ordering a used item, and the item description certainly doesn't say so. This is no reflection on the product itself. Item was from ""Quick E Shop and Fulfilled by Amazon""."
392532,1,"Hose end broke off, big water bill.",I used this to start my lawn from seed 2 years ago and then stored it in my garage. I didn't have any problems with it the 1st time. The interval and duration times seem to work okay and the options fit my watering style well. Yesterday I prepped and reseeded my lawn and retrieved my orbit water timer with plans on watering 12 times a day with 5 mintue intervals. I tested it by turing it on and off heard the shut off click. I tightened it on the spigot and tested it with the sprinkler and it worked well. So I set it up in the evening after a hard days work. When I woke up this morning my water pressure was low. I check out the spigot where the orbit was connected and it broke off from the spigot and water was gushing out. The metal hose end was still tite on the spigot. But the plastic base connecting the hose end to the timer broke off. Now I'm looking for a better made timer. That night's water bill is probably going to be 2 to 3 times the price of the timer.
392581,1,Maca mud,"Unfortunately, I never got any of the benefits of the Maca Magic Powder because I couldn't use it. I couldn't use it because I couldn't get over the taste. It is definitely an acquired taste. I'm sure it has healthy qualities but if you have a sensitive palate, you may want to find your antioxidents and vitamins elsewhere."
392603,1,TERRIBLE DISAPPOINTMENT! Not worth the money.,"The box this came in looked nothing like the picture of the box that is shown. The box was brown with the words ROOT-VUE FARM printed in black. Inside was a styrofoam square, a bag of dirt chips, one piece of white plastic, one piece of thick blue plastic and 3 packages of expired seeds. This was supposed to be a gift from Santa and the brown square box with the words on the side failed to delight in any way. AWFUL and not at all worth the money."
392664,1,Melanie fans beware!,"That Kid Chris seems to have a knack for producing minimalistic trance dance tracks, and truly, ""Come With Me Tonight,"" will take you in; HOWEVER, if you're a Melanie fan and looking for something new and exciting, this is not the cut! The CD jacket indicates vocals by Melanie, but the only ""vocal"" that even remotely resembles Melanie is the chronic, breathy and yes, SPOKEN line of ""come with me tonight."" There is one other female vocal ""line"" that repeats throughout the entire song as well, but this sounds more like an electronic young Aretha Franklin. Who would want vocals from Melanie on their cut without using her truly unique and incredible VOICE to its maximum power? Unfortunately, That Kid Chris."
392722,1,"Honestly, I didn't Like it","I used to see Garcia on the Melting Pot and he was the dullest of the Food Network chefs. I guess I should NOT have expected any better from his book. The recipes are OK, but the only thing that even mentions him is the introduction. He would have sold a lot more books if he had Emeril write the intro! I guess Garcia was too busy these past two years to do any writing. I've got my copy up on the Marketplace and hope I can get a few dollars for it!"
392748,1,All the recommendations fooled me...,"This sounded like a really good book. All the reviews of it seemed to be positive. But I just couldn't get into it. The style of writing was so slow. I can pick up a book by Brian Keene and be sucked in on the first page. But after about 80 pages of Wolf, I had to put it down. Sorry, that's just my opinion."
392754,1,"Uneven Spices, terrible taste","I ordered a few boxes of this and I couldn't stomach this. The spices were very off in this type of dish, to the point where it made it couldn't stand the taste of it. It had way too much cinnamon. I ended up throwning my other boxes out. I would recommend Kohinoor brand over this any day."
392756,1,Not received yet,"Unfortunately, I am not due to the receive the book until 10 October so I cannot review it. Regards, Colin"
392809,1,THIS THING IS A PIECE OF JUNK!!,"This is my first instance of really getting stung by an Amazon vendor. I fully expected this to be a nice, sturdy, presentable CD/DVD stacker...it turned out to be the FLIMSIEST piece of <<censored>> I've ever spent a substantial two digit amount 'o' bucks on! The two racks I ordered cost me, with shipping, over FORTY DOLLARS!! After I got them, put one of them together and assessed it, I was amazed at how tacky and cheap it looked and felt! I went to tighten the base to the top cap and the cap promptly broke, with very little exertion on my part! It also doesn't hold DVDs, just CDs!I wouldn't recommend either the device OR the vendor to a dog that has a Yorx home entertainment system! YUCK!(And thank Amazon for straightening things out concerning this!)"
392963,1,didnt work,this product didnt work with my device from the second I opened the package. unfortunately this item is so cheap it isnt really worth it to return and get another.... sooooo screw it. i bought a hdmi adaptor for my device instead. thanks for nothing.
393032,1,Don't waste your money,"Don't waste your money on this one. I was extremely disappointed. I expected some music, but all this is is a volcano erupting. Sounded more like background noise than anything else."
393044,1,Cushion Grip,I bought it for my husband to replace Sea Bond. He wasn't happy with the product it all oozed out with in 24 hours.Will never buy it again.Sea bond was the best product on the market.
393238,1,Success remains out of reach for Flash on final album.,"By this, their third album, it was quite obvious that Flash were not going to give Yes a run for their money. In fact, Flash wouldn't even come close to matching Yes' commericial and artistic successes. A lame concept album about some guy from the Planet Catalina, Out Of Our Hands stumbles in the usual places: weak vocals, inane lyrics, lack of keyboards, etc. Why group leader/guitarist Peter Banks never bothered to replace Tony Kaye on keyboards after the first album is the head-scratcher here. Trying to do it all on guitar, Banks and band mates just can't seem to muster the musical depth to keep up with their prog-rock counterparts (although Banks' guitar work here is awesome, as usual). After this album, Banks retired Flash altogether and started a new band called Empire. They recorded three album's worth of material in the late '70s - none of which was ever released by a major label until just recently (on One Way)."
393274,1,Only supports limited number of resolutions,"It looks like this device can only support 1024x768 (60, 75 and 85Hz) and 1280x1024 (60Hz) and as a result it can only natively support monitors with this resolution. I.e. if you have a different monitor you are out of luck."
393359,1,Could have been better,"There were many predictable moments in this movie, it was like I knew what was going to happen right before it did. There were no suprises here which is sad because the premise has potential."
393362,1,Not What I Was Expecting,"This film started off great but slowly sunk into pits of disappointment. Joss Whedon needs to learn how to edit himself. I will say, it was worth watching once... You never know who's going to show up."
393391,1,Too painful to finish reading,"While I have enjoyed Eddings previous work (Belegard saga), this book became too painful to finish reading. This has been mentioned in other reviews, and I am afraid I must agree -- this book is a tepid, unoriginal, and boring rehash of the plot, dialogs, and personalities of their earlier works.If you are looking for a good rainy day book, buy the Belegard series instead - even if you already own it, re-reading it will be more pleasurable than torturing yourself with this book."
393448,1,Be careful to inspect the cable type before you buy!,This is NOT the cable you think it is! Make sure to get a closer view of what the ends of this cable look like. The differences are very subtle.
393492,1,RETARDED BOOK,"THIS GUY IS ONE DENSE, OVER-OPINIONATED REJECT. A TYPICAL AMERICAN FAN WITH NOTHING TO DO BUT TALK B.S. ABOUT SUBJECTS HE DOESN""T UNDERSTAND."
393531,1,it's all true,"I just want to let everyone that it is true that this transfer is bad beyond words, but fortunatley Warner Bros. has just released BLACK BELT JONES on DVD in their 4 film favorites: Urban Action collection, which also features Jim Kelly classic Hot Potatoe and the all-star action extravaganza Three the Hard Way, the transfer there is all you could hope for. Plus, the collection is less costly than this rip-off, and it gives ya three more flicks. So check it out.Urban Action Collection: 4 Film Favorites"
393665,1,This thing will implode!,I really liked the Vacu Vin. I used it a lot and found that if you pierced the meat with a fork before you added the marinade and pulled the vacuum that it worked great. Then one night I was marinating chicken in Italian dressing. I pulled the vacuum and then boom! I (and the kitchen) were covered with chicken and Italian dressing. Took a hour to clean up the mess. I think I probably pumped it too much and pulled too much of a vacuum. The instructions should really warn customers about this. I'd like to purchase another but I'm a bit shelled shocked at the moment.(I don't think the cat will ever return to the kitchen if he sees another one!)
393674,1,Hate it,This are all old straight to video movies the worst DVD I have ever order hate it had trouble to look up movie
393681,1,DISCONTINUED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"My review of this product is that there is no review! You have this item on your website for sale but it is DISCONTINUED! So my review is on your website. You really should update your website every so often. I ordered this, thinking it was available because it was on your website and I had to call after the projected delivery date to see when it shipped and then I was advised that the product was DISCONTINUED! This has not been available since early this year. No longer manufactured!"
393828,1,Very dumb design.,"If I could rate this negative, I would. My wife got one of these for me for Christmas. I work in electronics and I know pretty well how to solder. I saw this advertised on TV and I thought it would be the neatest thing ever. I was really curious about how it works.The tip is made from carbon (like what is inside old batteries), or at least that is what it seems to me. 2 pieces of carbon with PLASTIC! of all things! sandwiched between them. Although the tip cools quickly, it still gets hot with use, and guess what!? PLASTIC MELTS WHEN IT GETS HOT!Mine broke within 5 - 10 minutes after use.A better design would be ceramic in the middle instead of plastic. Close the whole tip in a ceramic cover with the ends of carbon sticking out.... or why not use metal instead of carbon? Sure, it wouldn't cool off as quick, but it would be a lot better product. I guess they couldn't sell as many if they couldn't use the quick cool scheme. That's what got my curiosity, anyway."
393859,1,Low Budget Film short on theme,"This is a good film to rent if watched in a writer's workshop group. Endless debates could swirl around just what the writer intended to convey. Myself, I prefer just a little more exposition and a conclusion prior to the credits. The forgiveness/history rewrite during the final scene was a bit much. Don't worry, that opinion/impression isn't a plot give away for a film like this."
393900,1,Piece of Carp!,Had this iron a little over a year. Paid too much money for it. Then it stopped working after 1X PER month use. I figure I paid 7-10$ per use for this piece of CARP! DO NOT BUY!!! STAY AWAY. ROWENTA WILL NOT MAKE GOOD ON REPAIRS OR CLAIMS.
394036,1,Nice Little Toy,"Well, it's cute, but you don't want to jam or even practice with it.All I can say is, don't buy it for practice reasons. Maybe for a youngster that is 1st starting out, but then if he or she practices with this pedal, it may encourage not to play music. Yep, that's how bad it is.It is heavy duty except for the knobs. Yuk Yuk"
394045,1,overrated,"Basically, I was recommended this book since I am a big Star Trek fan and someone interested in religious theory. The title is catchy, but the book has several shortcomings.First, the arguments posed and the analysis conducted are the kind that any true Star Trek fan could conjure up just by watching the episodes. For examples used, the authors pick the most blatantly obvious episodes with which to work with (i.e. TNG's ""Who Watches the Watchers"")and throw loose theories together which are made quite apparent by simply watching the episode itself! In fact, throughout the book, no truly original theory is argued fully - here and there we catch bits and pieces from characters such as the Prophets, or Q, and how they are ""godlike"" - a point which the script writers obviously include.In addition to this, there are also several errors which any true fan would never fail to notice!Overall, save your money, and watch the shows and movies and judge for yourself."
394110,1,Failed after two weeks,This power window regulator is craptastic in every way in what a good power window regulator ought to be. The upper cable broke off from the upper pulley wheel just after two weeks it was installed.
394133,1,Ramblin Stream of disorganized ocassionally useful information,"Good luck getting a workable plan out of this book. It is so chopped up and convaluted you will pull your hair out. Yes there is some useful information hidden within the pages, but the plan is pretty much absent in any kind of clear concise way. The autor is a pastor with a masters, probably in pastoral studies, and I am sure he paid off the MD to put his name on the cover.A few clever analogies and a smattering of studies (500 kids) dont come close to quality research.Go with mindell - sleeping through the night -I'd trust the associate director of the sleep disorders center at a childrens hospital - with a PHD, way more than this guy."
394138,1,Terrible Parenting Advice,Babywise is probably one of the worst books I have ever read. It forces babies into unhealthy schedules which are not supported by current pediatric practices.
394147,1,Please Don't use this Book,"This is the only book that the AAP lists as dangerous.It goes against instinct, and can hurt your baby.Ezzo's grown children no longer talk to him ... I think that says it all."
394243,1,Interesting Piece of Software,This program is very difficult to control and doesn't have very good quality graphics and stuff. I think anybody looking to buy this piece of software should maybe consider something else.
394246,1,can we say con?,the product shipped with this order is NOT what's described here. It only drives off rodents from one room using ultra-sonic waves. no emf and NOT 5000 square foot. Also no insects. This is not worth the 30 dollars in any way shape or form.
394254,1,Not for big dogs... won't last long!,"While it's a cute little toy for a dog with small teeth, it doesn't last long in a house with one or more big dogs. I think the thing lasted about 15 minutes before there was stuffing everywhere..."
394269,1,Not Too Helpful,"I was a little disappointed with this book. When I bought it I thought it would be more of a collection of spells and charms. The most useful part of the book were a number of quick cure type charms which would only be helpful to a novice. Most of which, I now use other spells in place of. Many facts I even found false, and others were only half truths. Frankly, I learned more about true magick from talking to friends than from this book. It was only good for an entertaining read."
394291,1,wasted my money,I ordered replacement ears after my husbands set just quit working - they did not work. There was nothing but buzzing in the headset. Had 2 other people look at them and nothing.
394315,1,The Total Money Makeover: A Proven Plan for the Financial Fitness,I am not sure if it was just the digital copy of the book but the content seem disconnected and points were often repeated. Felt like I skimmed through a lot of it hoping it would go into the action items which the book promised.
394333,1,Not worth the hassle,"This is the most frustrating DVD player I've ever owned. When it works, it's fine, but . . .Remote is badly designed, you need a light on to use the thing. The pause button is buried between the repeat button and the fluorescent dimmer. Why?I can deal with the remote. The biggest problem is that it is very slow to recognize discs if it does so at all. If the disc is not pristine and dust free, it skips or simply doesn't recognize at all. I don't even bother with it using the kids CDs anymore, too frustrating.My $39 Apex is far more reliable.Update 2/2006:Player totally failed 1/2006. I swore at the time to never buy another Toshiba product. But . . .I called Toshiba Customer Support and they sent me a new player (SD-6980) which so far is fantastic (and adds new features as well):- Good remote- Reads most any disc- Flash card reader- DIVX support"
394351,1,Case of the Missing Cutthroat,The book Case Of the Missing Cutthroat is the worst book I have ever read. There is no point in the story. me and my friends joke about suffering from the Jean Craighead George disease. By the way don't read this book.
394409,1,High defective assembly rate,"I ordered 2 units for Christmas presents. One unit had a screw loose inside - was 1 of 3 screws holding the power/mixer drive unit in place and was in a position such that I could not get the screw back into its hole, so I sent it back. Then later I got news on 2nd unit.Its delayed start button fell to inside of control panel (probabaly missing the part behind it that holds it in place?) on the very first press of the button. I had already replaced the 1st defective unit with another one when I learned of the defective button. After testing all its buttons, so far it seems to be OK, no loose screws or buttons, but not much time has passed since X-mas to be sure how it will hold up. The 2nd defective unit will be replaced with a different brand. But it does make good bread when you have a fully functional unit. Too bad the assembly quality is so poor. Thank you Amazon for taking back the defective units no problem!"
394451,1,Horrible!,"I bought this product at a local ""Super"" store and I thought it would be like the Crest ones just faster. I was wrong on many accounts. It didn't burn so much as make my teeth very sensitive! My teeth were sensitive for months after I used the product. I did have sore gums for a while as well as having sensitivity when I brushed my teeth or drank cold drinks. I will never use this or recommend this to anyone. Horrible product, it should be taken off of the market."
394561,1,Not worth the time or effort,"The book, to me, was just a shabby biography with two small sections at the beginning of the book and another at the end that gave a slight overview of the plane trip and subsequent crash.Save yourself time and find a book by a more reputable source."
394585,1,OCR difficult to read,"This is book was made by Optical Character Recognition (OCR) 1. There are many typos. 2. The original footnotes are in a double columns, so the OCR process mixes the footnotes up. 3. The lovely pictures are not included. 4. The chapter Titles look no different than the body of the text. 5 There is no spacing between paragraphs. It is not much fun using a book produced this way. Buy a copy that is not produced by OCR!This review only applies to copies produced by OCR."
394656,1,Foorstool,"As a nurse am very disappointed in that the handle is not one piece, but contains bolts at the base and mid-handle. In addition, it is wobbly.In addition a nauseating odor emmanated from the top of the footstool. I tried everything to remedy the odor but no luck. I had to return the footstool."
394664,1,too big and look cheap,"I am not sure anyone would still use 17"" laptop. this is designed to carry 17"" laptop. I bought it because I thought it would help me carry small laptop and extra stuff, it turned out I could not do it, so I returned it."
394670,1,These should retail for about 6 dollars,"I don't mean to give it such low stars but I think there is confusion on the price. These may be a wholesaler selling large lots.I, think if you are interested in purchasing these, you might want to contact the seller and ask if this is a case not just one little set. I sell Toysmith products in my shop and these are not this expensive individually(meaning one set of 12 cutters as pictured. This would be the price for a unit.) I may have missed if it said it was a bulk unit, but just in case ask them."
394679,1,Rabbit Cage,I need to amend my previous review of this product due in fact to a weld that connects the wheel to the bottom of the cage that broke. The product was not packaged in a way that prevented it from becoming bent in several places thus making it hard enuff that I literally broke my thumb trying to assemble it and required emergency service on my thumb. I have no intention on paying to ship it back to the seller as I am already out enuff money from purchasing the cage plus hospital expenses and lost time from work. I feel it will be a matter of time before more or all of the welds around the wheels will break.
394763,1,Talks down to the Reader,"While the author's intentions might have been otherwise, this is not a book for anyone with experience in the craft -- her tone is often demeaning as if she's talking to a child."
394792,1,Not Water Resistant.,"This watch is supposedly water resistant up to 99 meters...It's not.By day 2, the inside of the watch was already fogging up from the water it would encounter when my 3 year old would wash his hands.And check out the warrenty information before purchasing. It's gonna cost $10 for return shipping/insurance plus the cost of shipping the thing to the manufacturer, so it's cheaper to buy a new one than to use the warrenty."
394809,1,Needs help.,"I am in total agreement that Fisher Price Power Wheels is ""sexist"" as put by another reviewer above. These are much too slow, even for the most timid little girl! We took ours back and got our 3-year-old the Kawasaki for boys. It is sooo much better and I wish they would wake up and read these reviews and do something about it. I'd love to spend whatever to get my little girl a quad ride on that lets her keep up with her older brother on his! It's obvious a change should be made after reading all these reviews! Come on Fisher Price!"
394825,1,"Oh, dear gods, shoot me now.","This is really horrible fiction. For cheap thrills in fantasy, try Mercedes Lackey or some of the Dugeons and Dragons books.What happens when a pretty bad nonfiction author writes bad fiction? Stay tuned and find out!"
394836,1,This printer never even turned on. It sucked.,Do not buy. It was bad. I was so happy to buy a printer for my parents and hook it up but it would not even turn on. I ended up ordering a completely different printer. I don't know if it was damaged due to shipping or what but I was very disappointed.
394848,1,Waste of Money,"My children were not able to wear this costume for Halloween. The costume said that it was for sizes 0-6 months. However, the costumes were gigantic! There is no way that any baby who is under 6 months old would fit into this costume. It looked like it was sized for a toddler. This ended up being a huge waste of money since I had to get other Halloween costumes for my children to wear."
394926,1,"Some people just don't get it, but I guess that's LIFE","Oprah might be better than Sigourney Weaver, but why can't they just leave the guru of nature documentaries to the job. Why does this have to be one of those things where it is just here in the U.S. that we can't let something be good and leave it at that? Oprah is good at making my mom cry doing shows that are the TV equivalent of People magazine updates (well, mostly), and balancing out with useful outreach fundraisers, etc. BBC does it right. Discovery Channel tries too hard yet again"
394956,1,go figure,"What do you do when you give up your spirtually unfulfilling but financially rewarding job only to find that its a cold, hard world out their? You write a book about it in the desperate hope that it will make you some money."
394989,1,2 Years?! Hello ;),"I must say, I was greatly disappointed. P3 800, 256 meg, GeForce 2.. u n p l a y a b l e btw, on a cable connection. Move for 2 seconds, hard drive hits for 10.. There is no customer support. Did anyone miss out on the fact that they have been writing code for this for 2 years?! I'd be embarassed to say I had anything to do with it. Funcom said they.... who cares, they didn't make it right. I'm not paying for beta.. er alpha testing.. sure EQ started with problems, but they made it right. Funcom fell on their face. Thanks for nothing FC :/"
395042,1,Cheap quality,"Bought this watch and after using it for a week the security clasp became loose. Later the security clasp pin broke. The watch is beautiful and looks as if it were a very expensive watch, but the feel and the quality of the materials is cheap. Got a lot of compliments on the watch. By the way I bought three Invicta watches at the same time but to be honest will not buy another Invicta watch ever."
395100,1,Please heed negative reviews regarding drooping on the ear!,"I bought these for my 83 year old mom, she loves jewelry and helped me pick these out. We thought it would be a good deal for the price. She was happy with the look of the stones when they arrived, but as others have noted, these stones are mounted at the end of a rather deep mount (almost 1/4 inch) which makes them rather top heavy. Unless you have very thick and meaty ear lobes, these earrings are going to droop downwards, not sit pretty on your ear as you would expect. Needless to say, my moms ear lobes are very thin, as soon as she put them in her ears, they drooped downward at a 45 degree angle. She was very displeased with these and we sent them back for a refund."
395111,1,Oh so clever clever,"A clever premise, some funny moments, but in the end so hollow and self-indulgent. It takes the post-modern vibe and runs too far... stick with David Eggers or David Foster Wallace. I'm sure Maddox can do better--he clearly has talent. But the self-conscious references and 'aren't I clever' showiness get annoying fast."
395204,1,Throw this in the GARBAGE... Pretty USELESS book...,"Well, somebody tried to imitate the Holy Quran from the muslim world and tried to add some spices to make the people think it is a nice book. It is so not the real holy quran. Holy Quran is unique, there is no other book like that, nobody could ever recreate a book like that. This book is totally rubbish and good for the garbage. Don't waste your money and time on this book."
395210,1,torture,"If Jesus was alleged to have been strapped on an electric chair, Christians would be wearing electric chairs around their necks. So what do you think of people who worship instruments of torture?The bible was nuf read for me when I left Christianity. Thank you God from freeing me from paganism = Christianity."
395255,1,Don't bother!,"Don't bother buying this card if you have an Athlon. This card crashes TRIBES incessantly. It even causes problems right when the GUI kicks in for Windows 98. This card is fine if all you do is play Quake III. Don't even attempt to play a Glide game on this. Save your money and stick with the real leader, 3dfx."
395276,1,Designed Obsolescence!!!!,"Until today, my WRT54G has performed well, although I do recall initial configuration woes. Anyway, 6 months after the warranty .... pau. I go to use it after it had the night off and nothing. I couldn't understand a lick of the so-called English the guy in India tried so hard to speak and his bottom line was that it was a very old model (3.5 years) and he couldn't help me without my paying $29.95 to extend the warranty. Right. Linksys has lost me. I find it highly suspicious that it would just decide to die in its sleep."
395289,1,don't buy it,It constantly loses the connection and it requires reboots. I updated to the latest firmware and it's even worse.
395291,1,bad mass-produced product,"i bought the Linksys WRT54G a couple years ago (v1) and encryption never really quite worked (WEP or WPA); the connections would always be excruiatingly slow, or there would be no connection. then one fine morning i woke up to find it inexplicably bricked and it was a dead unit. so i complained to Linksys and fortunately they shipped a new unit (v4). unfortunately, this unit also had defective WEP/WPA connections. after being frustrated, i decided to scrap Linksys altogether and opt for a Buffalo G54 Cable/dsl Router with aoss instead -- Buffalo products are 1) cheaper 2) easier to set up 3) WEP/WPA works out of the box 4) more compatible with Macs 5) could double-up as a Wireless Access Point (using Repeat mode)."
395296,1,Don't buy this router,"People are having tons of problems with the WRT54G Version 5, just try googling ""WRT54G Version 5"". For some reason this version does not play well with DSL. I installed it and it cut my connection speed by 2/3. Tech support was absolutely no help and it took a full hour of wrangling to get them to issue an RMA. Not sure what they will replace this one with -- probably just another of the same that also won't work."
395323,1,Overly complicated to set up,"I had to search around the interne looking for a guide on how to set up WAP client mode, And the included CD-Rom doesn't even come with a wizard or anything to help you do that.You had to set your network adapter to Static IP, then find find the WAP's default Static IP, which wasn't even written anywhere in the packaging. After all that, it wasn't too difficult to finish what I started. But gosh darn! Why the heck is it so complicated?! there's not even a manual to get you through all this, hence why I had to search around the internet for help."
395324,1,Useless product,"I purchases the WAP54G and the WPC54G. Set up was easy.I found the WAP54G was unstable when I used a VPN over the wired connection. A firmware upgrade corrected this problem.My first attempt at wireless also worked on the first try. Then I tried 128bit WEP. The wireless connection fails at very regular intervals (3 minutes 6 seconds). 64bit WEP was stable and it was stable with WEP disabled.Linksys service made several suggestions (all obvious). After trying all channels and various hardware placements, both 64bit and 128bit WEP now fail at 3min 6sec intervals. With WEP disabled the connection is stable.I have wasted many hours on this thing. I am now shopping for a different brand."
395333,1,Inconsistent quality,"After reading the existing reviews, we decided to purchase anyway. It didn't lay flat when we took it out of the package, but has settled now.The problem is this: in several places they ""sliced"" the foam so thin that we actually have holes in it.It was comfortable to sleep on. But this manufacturer and company need some quality control. My guess is that what Amazon is shipping are ""factory seconds"" -- because they're counting on customers not sending their defective product back."
395363,1,don't buy this,don't waste your time or money on this. these guys need to decide whether they are going to be a latino band or just flat lame rock. it is horrid.
395405,1,Fairly Obvious Conclusions With Interesting ROIs,This book is definitely not for Webmasters or anyone familiar with interactive media development except so far as it can serve as an introduction to suit-talk (how to persuade your boss to go all the way).The first two chapters were interesting but in both case studies the task at hand was fairly obvious and didn't present any real breakthroughs in networking the work environment.Sorry for the poor review. I was expecting more.
395465,1,Pain and Wounds,"I bought this epilator thinking I would have beautiful, hairfree underarms, legs and bikini line. No such luck. This product HURTS! And to make matters worse I began getting ingrown hairs. Then the ingrown hairs got infected and now my underarms and bikini line are hairy AND have scars. Don't get this product!"
395496,1,Zib Zob and Janice S.G. Are Right,This recording is distorted and it sounds as if he is singing with helium. Even the newer tracks sound as if they were recorded analog with outdated equipment. Many people are not aware that Mr. Young recorded back in 1966 under the name Napoleon XIV. And yet not one those hits appear here!
395526,1,Too complicated,This was suppose to be a gag gift during the holidays - but written in such a complicated manner - no one liked it.
395571,1,can't get my cd to play all songs i burn,I burned a cd from my dell laptop and it will only play 10 songs or so. I thought one of the cds were bad so I tried again and it did it again. I am not sure why though. It will say error on the player and not want to eject. I wish I had some help.
395594,1,Guess You Truly Do Get What You Pay For...,"The mount broke within a month of purchase. The ""ball"" portion detached from the mount through sheer force and the plastic linkage between the mount and the ""cell phone carrier"" section deformed.Before then, it was extremely difficult to actually get my nav. phone to stay in one place as it would always rotate counter/clockwise. I've tried tightening all the knobs; however, the tightening would often unravel, leaving me worried about readjusting my nav phone while driving (something you never want to have to worry about).Avoid purchase if you're lured by the price. It'll last just long enough for you to still regret the purchase."
395785,1,GRIM Island,I didn't like this book very much. It was probably the most boring book I've ever read. It was good in the begining but it was just stinky the rest of the time. I pray the next one won't be so boring.
395831,1,Are you kidding?,"This movie is a testimony to the fact that sometimes a film is made solely because someone is infatuated with a particular face; in this case Helen Mirren's. The person infatuted was, apparently, the writer, Allan Cubitt. This film is little more than a camera slavishly following Mirren around with a lot of close-up's.In this film Mirren is an ex-rock star who ""plunges"" into the crime underworld to track down the killers of her benefactor. How are we supposed to believe this story line when at a crucial juncture Mirren's character almost misses a critical appointment due to oversleeping a one-night stand with a musician friend she runs into one evening.Long, tedious, stupid."
395849,1,DON'T BUY!! IT JUST DOESN'T WORK!,This thing just plain doesn't work. We have tried in on 4 different computers in different parts of the office. I hope amazon will accept my return. I have never returned anything with them. The keys are the problem. You can by typing and only a few will show up on the screen. Also. It just freezes for awhile. and if you pound the heck out of the keys it will work on the letter it missed. I have another wireless keyboard at home and it works fine. this one sucks.
395860,1,Another disc of cut and paste samples,"Time to see the truth about this band, folks. Endless samples, cut and paste arrangements are about it. It's goth elevator music and good for that but not much else. After a good start total disapointment with this band has set in."
395866,1,Not satisfied,"I am personally not satisfied with this product. I would not buy it again, too much oil in it."
395879,1,paw prints,I got this product for my new puppy Spunky who is a pug. When I got this I thought it was cute and very colorful with the paw prints. Than I put his bowls on it. Everytime he ate or drank it didn't keep the mess on it. Everything just spilled down the matt. It only lasted two days. It is made cheap and it torn right away.
395894,1,"good art, thats it","The story is hard to follow and i didnt really understand what the hell was going on. I read this book halfway before putting it down and deciding to return it because it was so bad. Instantly regret buying this book. The book is in full color, but even that cant save a lazy effort and what is possibly one of the worst manga I have set my eyes upon."
396004,1,Better to buy other company's products.,The chambers are very fragile. The quality of chambers are much worse than disposable water bottles. The company's customer service is useless.
396031,1,Let Me Down Every Time,"As I have been contemplating purchasing another device bad thoughts of my PN-20 fill my mind.It has failed EVERY time I needed it.Sometimes it couldn't pickup satellites.Other times the battery died with no warning (unpleasant when it is not noticed for an hour when I needed a bearing)After 3 or 4 new rechargeable batteries from the company (none of which lasted more than a few hours) I gave up and started using alkalines. These lasted longer.As others have said the desktop mapping software is cumbersome to useAnd I had difficulty entering an absolute lat long destination directly into the PN-20. this might have been my fault but it sure wasn't obvious.Looking at the new pn-40 I just keep thinking ""fool me once, shame on you.. fool me twice, shame on me""I still desire the functionality. But this hasn't worked for me for more than several miles on foot.PS: I just loaded the 1.5 ROM and will try this device again. But I have little to no hope."
396081,1,Two FAILED Units in Three Years,"My SECOND Roku unit failed 14 months after the first one. When the first one failed, I went 15 rounds with their ""Customer Service"" reps who disowned the problem. Finally, I sent them a draft of the Amazon review I would publish if they didn't send me a replacement, and they finally agreed to send me a RECONDITIONED replacement unit. I'm done dealing with those clowns. These units are a great idea, but a very BAD reality. Too much money for too little durability and a complete absence of customer support. KEEP LOOKING!!!"
396111,1,Batteries no good?,"There is no expiration date on the battery packages so there is no way of knowing whether they are any good, but I put one in my watch and it worked for less than 24 hours."
396126,1,Mis-cast...,"I tried to dig the movie, but I couldn't get over the way HBO mis-cast Franklin. I am sure those who read the book prior to watching the movie will agree. I can see where hbo was trying to go with this, but they sadly missed the mark.Sanaa as usual, was a joy to behold..."
396194,1,"A Poorly Written ""Introduction"" to Chinese and Japanese Civilization","This book was absolutely atrocious. It was poorly written and didn't touch on one idea long enough for the reader to get a clear idea of what the author was attempting to get across. I understand that it is a ""brief introduction"" but that is no reason to be sketchy and incomprehensible on the majority of the subject matter presented in the text. At certain points I had to re-read some paragraphs because I felt like they were written in Haiku or some form of code. From my viewpoint it was like the author was attempting to tackle to many subjects at once, and because of this, wasn't able to expand fully enough on any of them. I also agree with the previous comments, there were multiple grammar errors and spelling issues that shouldn't have been present in a 3rd edition."
396289,1,A good idea if the software worked,"I initially bought this product on an impulse because what I wanted was not in stock and I wanted to get some tunes for my motorcycle. Well, the product is Great except for one BIG problem_____the software does not work after about 2-3 applications. I took it back and got a replacement to no avail. It still does not work. I'm taking it back to the retailer and am going to try Sony's S-2 CD Player/Reciever/MP3 unit. Do I sound bitter????You bet I am, after all the time and lost money(accessories) I've spent trying to make something work that doesn't___________work."
396299,1,"Great idea, bad implementation","This pot is a great idea. Too bad they didn't make it better. Mine stopped working after one month. I'm guessing the heater element burned out, so back to the store with it.Also the on/off switch is confusing and annoying. Press it once, nothing happens. Press it a second time, it turns on. Press it a 3rd time, it goes off. And there is no automatic 2 hour shut off, unlike any self respecting coffee maker, so if you leave it on for a day or two, you have some very strong coffee."
396347,1,Very Cheaply Made,"I ordered two of these lights to use over work benches in my barn. As soon as I unpacked the first one, I noticed the fixture was broken so I returned it for replacement. I did not get a chance to hang the second one for a couple of days. When I did, I found it to be defective as well. First, it was difficult to get the bulbs installed. It would have been impossible had I been trying to install them after hanging it. When I finally did get the bulbs in, it did not work. Apparently some sort of electrical problem. The replacement for the fixture I returned arrived today. It works okay so I am keeping but not happy with the quality of workmanship. I am returning the other one for credit. With only one out of three working, it is simply not worth it to give this product another chance. I will try a different brand. I cannot recommend this one. As usual, however, Amazon made the returns easy."
396356,1,"Wires, what wires?","I bought this book expecting to have everything explained, in a simple manner. This was true until it came time to wire together the parts. If you ask me, the hardest part of building a computer is the wiring, it's pretty complicated. This book tells you how to install the parts themselves sans the wires. I had to figure out all of the wires on my own: the book told me how to install only about 2 of the wires. I ended up mostly using the instruction booklets that came with the parts. I ended up even having to call tech support!!! After the wiring was set up it came time to install the OS which believe it or not the book has no instructions on. If you are looking for a book to help you build a computer don't get this one!!!"
396368,1,not so professional,"This curling brush has plastic teeth which easily disengage from the barrel and fall off. Since I got no direction booklet with this item, I don't know if there is a remedy. Doesn't appear to be one."
396369,1,Worthless book,"The book is extremely sketchy and is comprised of java and j2ee notes. The explanations are skimpy and does not provide clear understanding. There is not enough depth for it to be a useful reference, nor enough breadth for it to be a handy learning tool. Move on to something else."
396404,1,"caution, falling produce","As others have stated, the links on the chains come apart and the contents come a tumbling down. Look elsewhere."
396411,1,Leaky Kettle,"This kettle works great for boiling water, BUT when its done it slowly leaks water until its all out on your countertop. I have tried contacting Cuisinart support for help determining whether I have a defective kettle, or whether its just a poor design, but that have not replied to my repeated emails, and I don't have the time to spend on hold."
396587,1,Terrible product,"I retired my GE after 9 years of faithful service and bought this microwave. The price was right. $180 plus tax and it fit the space perfectly. That was in April 2010. I should have known you get what you pay for. In May 2011, it just died on me. Everything lights up, turntable turns etc .. just doesnt heat anything. In order to have it checked out, it would cost more than I paid for the microwave. The parts alone add up to more than 180. Until last month it had worked great. It basically lasted 13 months :-(. They should change LG from LIFES GOOD to LOW GRADE. Not worth the cost and aggravation. I should have read the reviews before purchasing. Too many people have the same problem with it. Buy something else or you will regret it. I know I have."
396629,1,Lol,"I wouldn't waste my money on this. Dude, all of his albums suck ass why would I waste money on a cd that is based on his tv show that I don't even watch nor would I waste any moment of my life watching. The only song I ever liked from his is True Love but, that is One Hit Wonder. I feel so sorry for young rapper stars ( 14 and younger) They have no life and no talent. For Romeo he's lucky for his ugly ass dad in the game. Without him he would be nothing. Oh wait he still is! Guess your dad hasn't helped you yet has he? Too busy trying to ""floss"" and bein a true ""G"" haha fakes"
396688,1,Not as good as they used to be?,"I wear the same size shoes as my sister in law. When I borrowed her Sanuk sandals I *had* to get some for myself they were so comfortable. The Sanuk sandals that I received seem to have been made out of a different material, they just were not as comfortable. The biggest problem is that they were smaller. I had my sister in law bring hers over and set them sole to sole, the ones I received in the same exact size were smaller, most noticeably narrower. The strap was also not as roomy or comfortable. I returned these sandals."
396761,1,Picky and noisy,"This drive would have been perfect if not for it being picky when it comes to media. When playing dvds, its so loud, it overpowers the noise in my cpu. Its distracting.The only good thing about this drive is that its cheap. But that is all you can get. Its a cheap writer which is cheaply constructed. I guess I got what I paid for. for others looking to buy this thing, spend just a little more on better known brands in dvd writers. Yes, Pioneer are famous but not when it comes to writers. There are others out there worth considering. But for the price no writer beats it except mayber for the ""ultra-cheap all the way"" NEC.Other writers worth mentioning are Plextor and TDK which are admittedly more expensive than the Pioneers."

396886,1,Avoid at all cost!!!,"I bought a couple of these, and now regret it greatly. In less then a week one of them broke. If I didn't know better I would think that they had been pulled at the way it broke between the link, also the clasp seemed stretched somewhat. In any case, I would avoid it, and find a higher quality necklace someplace else."
396910,1,Doesn't work with Logitech.,"Not sure what's up, but doesn't work on my computer. I half expected this, but it was worth a shot to try out."
396923,1,Very poor product,"The cover of the CD leads one to believe that the music will be at least contemporary, if not ""hip."" It is neither. Boring music that makes the Teletubbies sound tough leads children through incredibly dull subtraction practice that is NOT BASED ON THE USE OF STRATEGIES, but is simply rote repetition. This CD is not engaging, nor is it very instructional. Children and adults alike will be incredibly bored.Don't waste your money. I am an elementary school teacher (3rd grade), and I use a LOT of music in my classroom. The students will not tolerate this CD; it is just too boring. Because it does not teach use of strategies, it is not useful to me as an instructional tool. Avoid this product. I am only giving it two stars (instead of the one star it actually deserves), because there are even worse products out there."
396954,1,"Would not have recognized the itemI ordered - awful! If there was a lower rating, I would give that!","Really bad merchandise - was supposed to smell like a rose garden - not even a sniff of roses. Hated it, plunger broke at once! That is okay, I will NEVER use this awful scent! So disappointed, I will never, never order from this Perfumers Workshop again - Terrible smelling! Farewell to Perfumers Workshop for 2-ounces bottles + high shipping."
396972,1,Bait & Switch,"The product was NOT Paul Sebastian, but some imposter. No where on the box or the bottle was the Paul Sebastian identification. The fragrance is clear, but the one I received and promptly sent back was urine yellow. The box they are showing on the site is definately Paul Sebastian, but that is not what they send you. It probably cost me more to send it back, but it was a principle thing..."
396973,1,Not bad for liberal propaganda,"First the author does do a good job of explaining opinions and viewpoints on both sides. Both Western nations and Muslims see the other side as the aggressor and debates which side is the freedom fighter or terrorist. However where the film loses credibility is when the filmaker interviews Hamas and Hezbollah spokesmen. The filmaker never really challenges them on their previous statements and actions but allows them to Bill Clinton like use semantics to argue such things as resistance vs terror. In addition while attempting to paint the likes of Donald Rumsfeld and George Bush as extremists, the filmaker ignores the other quotes and speeches by the likes of Hassan Al Banna, Sayyid Qutb, and Bin Laden. It is almost like the filmaker was attempting to argue, ""What terrorist threat?"""

397182,1,"Give me a break, please.","I have not heard this album, but I heard enough of Justin's voice on American Idol to know that he is popular ONLY because the girls think he is hot. He has an incredibly thin, weak voice--I am still not sure what it even sounds like, since on AI, the music always overpowered his voice. A singing head is all Justin Guarini is. All of you who ""claim"" to like his singing, should admit what you really like: how he LOOKS while he is singing.Will there ever be a day again when the music in this country is actually based on TALENT, versus what the singer looks like?"
397220,1,Just the facts..,"It seemed like a noble effort, but when the biographer loses track of his subject's age more than once, one tends to question the validity of other ""facts"" as well--especially when the usual ""credits"" for quotations and statements are lacking. We're never quite certain if a quote is from an honest, personal interview, or salvaged from some previously published work."
397250,1,Don't Buy It,"I purchased this phone through Verizon because it looked good and it had a nice sliding feature. BUTAfter starting to use it this is what I found out: 1. The connection is bad, the voice cuts-off with this phone 2. The charger plugging is difficult 3. The touch-sensor buttons will activate if something touches them or you have to aim and tap exactly right or else you hit a wrong button 1/4"" away. A simple act of going through menu takes 3 times longer. 4. The voice-command system says: ""Please say a command"" then investigates your command by asking again, that makes fast voice-command as slow as dialing. 5. There is no button on the front to end a call and dial another, so you have to slide the phone closed then re-open or find the small side-button. 6. There are only a few bad ringer sounds inside, so they force you to purchase decent ringers. 7. There's no easy speaker system.And I haven't even used the MP3 yet!Buy a different phone by Nokia instead."
397251,1,"Ok phone, but not for me...","Ok, when I forst got the phone from UPS and opened the Amazon box, and then opened the phone box I had second thoughts as soon as I seen it. The phone looks cool when its ""closed"", but as soon as you ""open"" it the big slop between the really small keypad is just ugly. The glossy touch got on my nerves, ok, its hot wear I live and when I'm out and my hands aren't at their coolest point, I hesitate using this phone because I am scared that it would slip out of my hands. The camera is really good, but its almost impossible to ""push"" the OK button to take the pic. And I kind of noticed the when the phone was pushed up, I could wiggle the phone both left to right, and front to back, I returned the phone today, and got the RAZR, I would tell anyone to NOT get this phone. Sorry."
397298,1,Not Worth the $29,"Anybody who thinks this is a good book.... should get out and read more. There are so many facts that could be detailed more, but just glossed over. She never used steroids? Whatever? And why did she not go into detail about having her jaw restructured in order to look more ""beautiful""? I guess that blows away the ""I know I'm pretty"" schitick through out the book right out of the order. If you like it, take 5th grade literature over again"
397303,1,Customer Service anyone?,"I purchased version 4.0 of this software and loved it. About seven months ago I purchased a new Sony external fire-wire CDRW that wasn't supported by 4.0. When 5.0 came out I was excited to get the software but surprised that my burner wasn't on the list of supported devices. I wrote the appropriate email a message asking if or when my drive would be supported and recieved an automated response about my message being handled in the order it was recieved. A month later I again wrote them and stated I hadn't received an answer. Two weeks later I'm here on Amazon giving the product a bad review because I still haven't received a response. Just a message stating that my drive isn't supported and not expected to be supported in the near future would have been fine. If you are thinking of getting this product, be sure to check the web page to be sure your drive is compatible with the software.. and don't expect customer service/support...."
397396,1,Hardcover version has two fewer tales!,"Beware of the hardcover version--this 'new' reformatted edition contains only three stories, whereas the paperback (original format) contains five! This seems to be the case with all of the newly formatted George and Martha books--caveat emptor!"
397446,1,The Worst Coffee Maker Ever -so far,"I needed a quick coffee maker and picked up this model at local hardware store and paid a premium..little did I know.. The pot drips, no matter how we angle the pot while pouring, a mess occurs....We cannot make the right amount of coffee..if we pour 5 cups of water in tank and fill up to line, we get about 3 cups of coffee, what's up with that, so we never know how much coffee to use..what a mess....never again!!!!!"
397466,1,System Problems,"I have used Turbo Tax for the past 5 years and had been very pleased with it. This year, however, I had major problems with my system after loading it. After loading the program I lost all icons on the desktop and had to get instructions on restoring my system. Then, when I tried to use Money I was given the error message that the Program and the files were corrupted. I tried uninstalling Money and reinstalling to no avail. My backup disk also did not work. I then had to call Microsoft to help me correct my problem. This is the first time I have ever had a problem that I had to get assistance on. I also called Intuit and they thought it might have been a faulty disk but were not very helpful. Because of the problems incurred I will NOT try the 2001 version again."
397468,1,Poor,"1. Lightweight2. Good for small apartments only.3. Very medicore suction.4. Attached hose is short..cannot really get at corners and baseboards easily.5. The machine filter/cup clogs and fills quickly.

397531,1,Disappointing sound for the price paid,"While the Apple Hi-Fi Home Stereo offers an attractive concept - direct play from any iPod in a compact system, sound quality is disappointing given the price of the device. While pop music sounds ok, classical music (the true test of a hifi stereo system) sounds truly terrible, with all nuances of the music sounding muddled or missing. Within the electronically-enhanced music system category, even a Bose does a better job. For the same price, get yourself a Denon compact stereo system with Mission speakers and plug your iPod into it - you will get real hi-fi stereo and will be much happier."
397588,1,Rubbish,"I like her other books, but this one was ridiculous. I know there was supposed to be a message behind it, about feminism and Christianity, which could be true. But the rest of it, where is that coming from? It's just like some bargain basement historical romance."
397603,1,Disappointment,"I'm leary of gimmicks, but ordered this after seeing a fairly good review of it on the Today Show. Big disappointment. The onion stuck to the grate; didn't chop evenly and it took so much pressure to push it down and then it didn't close all the way. The onion was partly chopped and a significant portion unchopped, all in a mess in the holder.I tossed it in the trash. A waste of money."
397604,1,Vidalia Chop Wizard,"Cutting grates are DULL, practically have to stand on it to chop through, and eventually broke after just a few uses. Not at all as advertised."

397750,1,A Great Fryer But.......,"My husband and I bought this fryer and totally loved how crispy and delicious our chicken turned out. The first time we used it was for a party of about 25 people, so we were frying up a storm. But towards the end of the day after frying a lot of chicken we noticed something: A portion of the plastic that covers the outer layer of the fryer MELTED. Yes, melted. There was a big hole where plastic used to be. We were astonished.And we returned the damaged fryer to Amazon. We considered buying another one, but were too worried it might happen again. So, very regretfully, I have to give this fryer a low rating."
397766,1,Frustrating ink guzzler,"The printer worked pretty good while I used it often, but when I used it less frequently the problems started to mount - namely with the ink situation. It started to give the ""ink out"" messages even though the ink was not out in all the cartridges. And, even if I just had a full black in cartridge and another one was ""low"" it would not print in black only either. Very frustrating (and expensive to buy ink). We tried cleaning it and still doesn't want to print. It won't print if it senses that any cartridges are ""out of ink""(even though they aren't). I just don't understand how it says you're ""out of ink"" and won't print when I know that is not true. What an expensive machine this is to run- and a frustrating one. Won't buy Epson again."
397823,1,Made in China,"Are they beautiful? Yes. Are they heavy-duty? Yes. Are they helping me not buy plastic disposable straws that are also made in China? Well, yes. But...The impetus for even considering buying glass or stainless steel straws was when I looked at the bag of plastic straws we always buy and saw that they were made in China. I really wanted to buy the $30 Glass Dharma straws but this seemed like a more economical bargain. Now I know why.Be warned - these SS straws are made in China. So instead of getting the green, non-toxic, BPA-free drinking straw experience that I was seeking, now I have to worry about toxins, chemicals, poor manufacturing, and every other potential problem with products made in China.Next time, I'll just spring for the Glass Dharma straws. The $20 difference is probably worth it."
397858,1,Same ol' Same ol'...,"Well, EA managed to sock it to us once again... NHL 2003 has VERY little changes in it. I gave it 2 stars only because I like hockey. I am thinking about taking this back and maybe trying out NHL 2K3. No matter what you do, the computer ALWAYS seems to score on practically every shot. Doesn't matter if you have the best defense, best offense, or whatever, the computer will always score, keeping the scores very close. I'm just glad I am able to take the game back. Maybe NHL 2K3 will offer a different more fresher reality to the game. Not 10-12 in the third. Might as well play baseball or football games to get that kind of score."
397874,1,Complicated,This is an advanced game for those who have nothing better to do while sitting at home. The music like to have driven me up the wall. Lots of talking and some action then talking. With the strumming guitar music going on and on an on
397875,1,"Gets Really Old, Really Fast","This game gets quite boring after awhile. After meeting all my objectives there was nothing left to do. Interaction with the animals can be slow and frustrating. Letter writing is also slow and tedious. Good for very young children, my little niece and nephews (ages 4-7) seemed to like it."
397892,1,Great when it works,I've had the same experience as noted by others. Purchased in 2005. When it works it's great.. and it is one of the better looking models I've seen. however I have already gone through two tanks due to leaks...I've also had to repair water damage under the sink twice now.So far the dispenser has been working fine. However because of the tanks failing there has been about 2 years when the dispenser has rested unused. The good news is that they are sending me a new tank free of charge even though I am about a year out of warranty on the second tank. I like this manufacturer but I would suggest a different model.
397920,1,Poor Microphone Quality,"I have purchased 4 different Jabra headsets, because they are the most comfortable and easy to hear with, but they have poor microphone quality. I thought I would try this model, the MX150 Flexible Boom. Again, sound quality was crap. I make a living on the phone, so others being able to hear me is very important.I have ended up getting a Ge Tl26593 Earset Microphone by Jasco which has worked the best so far."
397948,1,Misleading picture,"This product is not good for the Zire 71 as pictured. The overlays are way too small, and I have to return it to Amazon.com. Customer service was prompt in accepting responsibility but it's a waste of everybody's time and the wrong picture is still on the production description."
397969,1,A stinker,I have used this pheromone products and my sex life has not improved a bit...a complete waste of money and prestige...bad odors and an overall bad idea...
397972,1,Is it old?,"I don't know if the bottle I received is old, or got too hot or something? I'm willing to give it the benifit of the doubt. But it doesn not smell good at all. I buy plenty of unsented things,I am used to natural moisturizers and lotions with no fragrance or perfumes added. But this down right stinks. Who wants to smell like a bunch of old musty books or a nursing home? Right? Those are the images that come to mind when I smell it. I guess it calmed my skin and moisturized my skin. But this is going in the trash - major waste of money for me. I just can't get past the yucky odor.Also, I am not convinced that this does anything better than many skin moisturizers on the market today. There isn't anything to suggest that it does, based on the ingredients listed. I think there are better products out there and I will use those."
397986,1,"Big hat, no cattle","I had several annoying adware programs that I wanted to get rid of, so I purchased Norton, thinking that since they were the big kid on the block that their software would be able to handle some run-of -the-mill adware programs. Wrong. It takes a very long time to run, and even though it would say that it found the offending software, it was unable to delete it. A friend told me about AVG Anit-virus software by Grisoft (which for some reason Amazon does not handle) and it did an amazing job and it runs much faster. I ended up removing the Norton program from my computer since it was not providing any real useful service."
397988,1,Worst Norton AV,"Was using 2003 Version without any problems. Removed 2003/Installed 2006, would not work properly. Removed 2006/Used Nortons tech support web tools to remove and clean all versions/Reinstalled 2006, still would not work properly, did this several times. Ended up using the 2003 after it reinstalled with another year of updates but now must do updates manually because automatic updates shows to update but doesn't. This is terrible product, setting on shelf not using and has already been activated, waste of money. To get live tech support you must pay, why should I pay money to get a product to work I just payed $ to purchase? VERY POOR PRODUCT AND SUPPORT."
398027,1,Samsung VI660 is defective,"Stay away from the Samsung VI660 phone. It definitely has a defect in the hinge mechanism. I have had TWO of them - both of which quickly cracked in the same location - between the hinge and an indicator light.I had to get the Better Business Bureau involved to replace the first phone because neither Sprint NOR Samsung would replace the first defective unit.I now have to go through the entire process of contacting the Better Business Bureau, Sprint and Samsung in order to get this second phone replaced. Ugh. Whatever happened to standing by your product?Hopefully this will save someone else the same aggrevation."
398033,1,useless,Very dissappointed with this book. I did not find it at all helpful in planning a blue and white living room. The information was more common sense than proffessional advice and education.
398035,1,Disappointing,"So many products make promises they don't keep. This is one of them. They say it's tough.Sorry, it's not tough at all!I started making chainmaille jewelry recently and needed the softer jaws on my pliers for the soft metals like aluminum and silver. I have to redip my pliers every week and then they are out of action for 24 hours becuase I let them dry for that length of time. The coating peels off after just a couple of days use. I even tried a friend's suggestion of double dipping but that didn't last either. I'm looking for something more permanent.Beware buying it online as the price is jacked up. It's half the cost from a craft store even with tax added."
398048,1,region code problem,"This player is very picky on region code. I have many all region DVDs can play in JVC and other brands but cannot play in this player. Most VCDs cannot be played either. I have 3 popular brand dvd players before this one, this is the first time I see this problem. I don't know if this is a defect or not. If I bought this from a retail store, I would definitely return it."
398061,1,TOO Stupid to be funny!!,"Some movies can be stupid to the point of being funny, but this movie goes beyond that point, and is so incredibly stupid that it is not the least bit funny. Just pointess and stupid, without any redeaming qualities at all!"
398079,1,"Nice animation, but lousy story","Lots of the animation scenes were pretty amazing, but I didn't love the story. Not so great for kids, either."
398139,1,Film students pay attention on how NOT to make a film,"Bad movies are well..bad movies. Some are so bad they are great fun to watch, this one could have been somewhat interesting, a few hot looking Hollywood types, a great Russian star Olga Kurylenko, some snow, some unwashed hordes and a bunch of Romans, seemed like great start. Sadly the film goes nowhere and the fight scenes contain some of the worst special effects and blood work I have ever seen. In a headlong rush to get to the end, the film forgets all logic, characters development and relies on endless cliches and ridiculous plot elements.If you like Rome, the HBO series by the same name is a way better bet or Gladiator.This is a total pass....."
398176,1,Basic Recipie Did Not Work,"The cookbook gave many variations to the basic recipies and looked interesting.The ""Basic European White Bread"" was the first recipie I tried.The first time I didn't notice that there was not enough water shown for this recipie. Since my breadmachine can't be reset I got to throw out the batch (one hard lump and a bunch of liquid).I tried the recipie again and I did not make a mistake with the ingredients but the recipie is totally off. It needs about 2 cups instead of 1 cup, as shown.Glad I got the book at the library and didn't waste my money!"
398179,1,Disapointed!...,"Yeah there are outakes of ""I'd like to buy the world a coke"" but it amazes me that the whole commercial is'nt included in this dvd. And most of the ad's included are not the good ones."
398208,1,Worth buying only if you want everything Gram ever did,I was disappointed. Obviously these recordings were not finished work. I'm sure that with good production the recording would have been excellent.
398229,1,unnessesary humor,"This movie had some tacky lines in it that were just not nessesary. But this movie is not as much of a boy thing as I thought it would be. But it is a complete KID movie! I don't know of many adults that would find this movie funny, but it's a great way for kids to kill a couple of hours. Though I probably never watch it again."
398240,1,Keep DES separated from reality,"I am enjoying other DES books, but ""The English Air"" deals directly with politics and the start of WWII. It is impossible to mix the pleasant ""hammock book"" world of DES with discussions of concentration camps, Nazi war preparations etc. DES' world is one where the characters are already nostalgic for the good old days, and her Scotland is vaguely like LLBean's ""Maine""- fun but probably remote from the place ordinary people inhabit. It is not a world of politics and military action. Once these things are brought together, I found myself facing up to the hidden politics of all the rest of DES' world: i.e. her manly young British heroes go off to various parts of the Empire to fight ""bandits."" Some of these bandits may have been nationalist freedom fighters- but the point is, no one reads DES to get into these issues. ""The English Air"" makes them unavoidable."
398320,1,A Real Disappointment,"For those of us who've waited anxiously for Vol. 2 to finally appear, this is a sour disappointment. The jokes and scenarios are more contrived, and it feels like the cast members just didn't have their hearts in it anymore. The guest stars are more high-profile than in Vol. 1, but their appearances contribute little to the episodes.Additionally, Mayor Massengil and her son are gone, and a new (and unfunny) female lifeguard is added to the SPF crew.It's almost as if all the show's writers were replaced during season two (which is split between Vol. 1 and Vol. 2). Most of these episodes spoof well-known shows or movies, like The Matrix, Survivor, and James Bond -- but they try too hard and the spoofs run on too long.There are a handful of laughs in this volume, but none of the belly laughs of the first volume. Those of us who crave the gut-busting hilarity of Vol. 1 will just have to settle for re-watching those classic episodes."
398413,1,DON'T BUY!!!,"I recently purchased this item, unwrapped the package and then followed the instructions for the footwear cleaner gel. Apparently, you have to 'Press the sponge applicator' to break the seal to release the gel. I did that, but no gel comes out. After spending about 10 minutes, shaking, pressing and squeezing to get the gel out - no luck. Since it is unwrapped I cannot return it so it was a waste of $15!"
398425,1,Perfdormance of Audio Technica AT-PL50 Belt Drive Turntable,"There was no problem with the turntable, except the sound was very poor, distorted and muddy. I thought it had to be the cartridge, and so stated in my reply to you.I thought perhaps you would provide me with a new cartridge, instead I was offered a 15% discount. I could not tolerate the sound, so that was not acceptable. I have quite a collection of records 33 and 45's. Some of them are in fair condition but the reproductio was very poor.I have ordered several items on the net and that was the first return. so I don't think it was my problem.Thank you,Robert Sanders"
398655,1,Lets Forget This,"80""s Crap.Prince sings hits for the light in the loafers crowd. Deep six this for a Beatles album or some Zappa if you dare."
398656,1,"It's great that it includes ""Money Don't Matter 2 Night""","But it's definitely worth passing by. For the best Prince ""Best Of"" experience, get Hits 1 and 2, and Hits + B-Sides. A lot of great stuff is left out here, making this ideal only for the casual fan."
398698,1,Strong Vinyl Smell,The product pictures do not show the LARGE plastic warning label that is sewn (can't rip off) on the blue flap. It smells very strong like vinyl plastic. Something that smells this BAD can't be good. Yikes! I used a Snuggle Nest with my first child and thought I could save a little $$ by getting this similar product for my second child. Bad idea.
398731,1,not a useable organizer,"Another flop in organizer products. The metal coated ribs that are supposed to hold the lids are very flimsy. One bottom ribs just bent over & the entire item is not usable. Even if it had not been broken, your shelves would need to be set way back to allow for door to close when lids are stored in it."
398735,1,Not very impressed...,"I bought this for my 5 year old, who loves anything princess and anything to do at her desk (notecards, pencils, etc.) She was thrilled to open it Christmas morning but hasn't used it since. The pencil sharpener broke the first time she tried to use it and the tape dispenser is difficult to work. This toy looks cute but is definitely not worth $19.99."
398763,1,Not all as was....,I am in this book...not all the facts are exactly like it was....and I agree with the person that said there was more information about the families than was necessary.
398809,1,Once was enough...,"The book was a decent Tom Peters style book to get you pumped up about your ideas. However, why re-release a book with a different name? Also, what happened to the other two books that were supposed to be added to the Jump Start theme? I would rank this book along side the Crystal Pepsi idea he had."
398827,1,It really is beyond....,"My son and I have read the Spiderwick Chronicles, own the movie and have listened to the audio books. I bought this to carry on and wow, I had to remind him of words we don't use that they said on the audio. These words: Lard a**, idiot and loser all directed at step siblings. I didn't enjoy the narrator either, his tone just sounded bitter. The other reviews were right on. Just a fair warning."
398831,1,NOT THE REAL PRODUCT,"THIS IS NOT THE PRODUCT THEY ARE ADVERTISING!! The product that they sent was a different style. I called them, they said they couldnt accept a return (which is understandable) but that the real product was out of stock. They then said that they would order the product and ship it to us. It was at least 2 weeks and I still hadnt received anything so I called and they said that they had ""discontinued"" the product and that they wouldnt be able to give me a refund. It wasnt until I brought up false advertising and possibly contacting someone else about getting a refund (amazon) that they put me on hold and got a manager. THIS IS NOT THE PRODUCT THAT THEY ARE ADVERTISING they are horrible at customer service this company sucks."
398880,1,Holds bikes OK but beware of your car model and bike size!,This rack does not seem to fit on the Nissan Xterra. The bike arm and upper support bar are one piece so when we tried to position the top bar above the rear windshield wiper the bike arm slanted down towards the ground. The rear windshield wiper on the Xterra does not allow you to position the bottom arm on the bumper with clearance for the wiper at the top. Maybe the rack isn't supposed to rest on the bumper?? Despite our bikes hanging at an angle towards the ground they did seem to stay in place pretty well after hassling with all of those squirrely rubber straps. My husband's bike has a smaller frame though which was a real headache to try and force onto the rack. Sadly we will have to return this rack.
398912,1,Too many bugs!,"Okay... the first few levels were fun, especially the level with the teenaged Lara in one of her first adventures. However, ""Red Alert"" has so many bugs in it that I finally gave up playing in despair. I've never given up on a game before, but this was finally more frustrating than fun."
398925,1,"Please, say it ain't so!","I read the book, and this follows it in about one place. They go back in time. This is so ridiculous it doesn't even deserve a long review. If you didn't read the book the game makes no sense.Some of the puzzles are so simple they are hard because you would never expects the damn thing to be so easy. The game is very short. There is absolutely no violence. When you hit someone with a sword, they surrender, not die. COME ON! The worst part is that Michael Crichton himself directed the project, why he would ever do that, and disgrace his book (which is very good). Just read the book and digest it, DON'T PLAY THE GAME. It RUINS THE BOOK. Thank you for your time. Now leave this page of the website and ask for forgiveness from G-d for even considering buying this book."
399180,1,Very Interesting Person/Very Amateur Documentary,This doc only whetted my appetite to learn more about the life of Chrysis. It teased me and then did not get the job done! What a loss. Maybe someone else will make a decent documentary about Chrysis.
399218,1,"Ponderous, dull, self-absorbed, metaphysical BS.","It took months to slog through this yawner because I alternately fell asleep or found somthing far more interesting to read, which wasn't a difficult task."
399240,1,Small calf boot,"I couldn't even zip up this boot, the material didn't seem to be of high quality either. It felt like thin pleather. I ended up returning this boot as soon as I received it."
399261,1,Unhappy Camper,I've only received one book at this point. I'll be very happy if I receive the other five that I ordered. Maybe they are still on the way I hope.
399272,1,hold your horses....,"Ok...lousy script, main chick nothing special,16 minutes of most important stuff are missing etc.Violence looks really stupid as main character has more money than god.Police, as usual, violate law."
399328,1,Read this book together with Dan Neuharth's book,"Al Neuharth's son, Dan Neuharth, has written a book called: ""If You Had Controlling Parents: How To Make Peace With Your Past and Find Your Place In the World"" [...]If you read the son's book first and then read this book, you will find Al Neuharth's view of himself as ""lovable"" quite a fantasy. The son's book is excellent help for adult children of narcissistic parents, and quite well reviewed, unlike this book.I'm not sure that success in business or publishing even requires the enormous betrayals Al Neuharth performed to others in his industry or to his family."
399345,1,Inconsistent flashes,"For the first couple weeks it worked ok, only sometimes flashed at consistent intervals at the really low setting. Now however, it's only consistent at the highest settings and hardly works at the lower ones. I guess it's what you get for the price."
399402,1,"Very, very cheap quality","Sure this thing is only around $20, but this thing was built horribly. I had to snap the buttons back into the metal face plate as they were coming out from the factory. After a few times of switching button #1, it failed and wouldn't turn off. Another button stayed partially illuminated even when off. This is junk, stay away."
399403,1,DO NOT BUY THIS GAME,"This is a horrible game, I mean it is just down right stupid. The fish are a real pain to catch and the line always snaps on the weakest fish when you are fishing. On top of that the game has the WORST music I have ever heard. The controls are odd and the graphics STINK. The worst part is trying to pick out the right bait to use. The are over 30 kind of bait and only one kind works for each fish. So the whole time you are trying to pick the right bait when the timer is going down. To get new levels you need to beat challenges which are impossible. You get WAY to little time catch a lot of really rare fish. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY BUY A BETTER GAME. !GOOD TIMES!"
399543,1,Just not worth it,"We've had ours for over a year. At first I thought it was going to be very useful, but it has turned out to be more of a frustration than a useful device. It does very poorly on carpeted areas, and the front wheel gets bogged down with pet hair very quickly on any type of surface. You can't clean the front wheel as it doesn't detach, so your only option is to use a pair of tweezers on it. I found myself spending more time on cleaning the Roomba than using it. We quickly stopped using it for cleaning rooms and just use it for cleaning under the bed, where our vacuum will not fit. Today, it has decided to stop working after a few seconds of use, so I'm guessing it is the battery, although it shows having a full charge. Good luck in trying to get their Tech support to assist either on the phone or via email."
399578,1,Disposable Electronics,"The Roomba idea is clever and they can be handy during the warranty period but after that they are essentially disposable items. iRobot, the manufacturer, has cut so many corners to produce this clever device at a reasonable price that they cannot and will not supply spare parts. Five stars during warranty, 1 star thereafter."
399619,1,No charger came with it,This item didn't ship with a charger. There was a notch in the foam for it but it was empty. Ended up having to spend an extra 40 for a new charger....Im sure the product works great but buying it from amazon was a waste...
399646,1,Temporary relief,"I had horrible pain in my foot over the summer and went to the doctor who diagnosed me with hammertoe. She told me I needed orthotics but I couldn't afford them so I looked online for some alternatives. The pain was mostly in the ball of my foot so when I found this cushion, I thought it would be perfect! So, the first couple of days, I loved it! However, the cushion moves a lot so I ended up having to use tape to keep in place which was a pain. Then after 2 weeks, the cushion was completely flat and provided no relief. Now, I have to provide full disclosure that I work in downtown Chicago which means I do a ton of walking (3-4 miles per day). So I wonder if the cushion would last longer for someone who didn't do the heavy walking I do but even then I question the durability of the product. Overall, it was cheap which I can't complain about and it did provide a few days of pain free walking but I would not purchase it again."
399653,1,Disappointing with no real action,This movie should only be seen on tv and is not worth spending the money. Even the grandkids were disappointed.
399708,1,Not for Israel,I was going to buy this to power a Sony SW radio I have as I try to spend a month in Israel every year. The Sony weighs a bit and I would have been very sorry to take an adapter with me that did not work. Thanks for the advice.
399725,1,Boring.,My 12 month old son is a ball fanatic! But he was bored with this toy after 5 minutes. It was not worth the aggravation of putting it together. It also takes up a lot of room.
399741,1,TERRIBLE!,My husband and I really don't like this toy. First of all it is not very sturdy - my 8 month old easily tips it as she tries to pull up to standing. And it slides across the floor as she tries to pull up on it. Worst of all it is designed poorly as the the balls get stuck in the track as they spiral down - very annoying. It's too bad as this toy has potential. My daughter loves to stand and play and likes the silly music the toy plays. But now she only plays with the balls the toy came with.
399782,1,I wasted my money on this item from Amazon,"I bought this item to go with a Z10 Touch Video. It was recommended on Amazon and said it went well with this kind of camera. I bought it new. However, I didn't get to test it until a couple of months later, too late to return it. When I tried it, it did not work at all, despite following the directions. I got worse sound than if I used the camera without it. Now I'm stuck with a defective product. What a waste of resources!!!"
399833,1,More like a prelude,I read 38% into the book without getting to anything about the actual siege. The book should be rename to something like Prelude and Events leading up to the siege of...
399862,1,Let Down once again!,"My favorite Jet is an F/A-18 E Super Hornet! But i was hoping that Digital Integration would have done more than creat a game with only good ideas.Graphics are poor period!I have read the readme file and tried to slow down features on a already poor graphics situation and it still locks up sooner or later!I'm running a G-Force II with an Intel Pentium III and a Full Sound Blaster Live. I have no problems with any of my other games.If only they would have made this NAVY Flight sim as good as Falcon 4.0.As far as the Hornet world is concerned,""Janes"" still is number one!This game is a bummer and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone since the company couldn't write the program to make it worth much!Marc :["
399894,1,not good,not what is looked like...and not what i wanted. I was expecing something different and now i cant return it cuz it will cost more to return it then i actually spent on it
399968,1,Loquacious and another world,"For a person living and working in the British Isles, 'Teach Yourself Copywriting' by J. Jonathan Gabay may be a fine read. But I don't live there. Residency aside, I found this book to be overly wordy to the point of feeling like I was slogging through swamps of verbiage to find a useful morsel. And there are useful bits there, it's just that it boarders on not being worth the time and effort to get to them. Someone interested in the topic of copywriting would do better to read similar books by Robert Bly or Peter Bowerman, both much more interesting and succinct; my apologies to Brits everywhere."
399972,1,"Okay at first, but died pretty quickly...","My parents ordered me these new speakers when they got me a new monitor. For awhile, they did work fine, and the sound quality was great. However, the other day, they randomly died on me after about 3 months' use. I'm stuck trying to find another relatively inexpensive set of speakers (while still giving the audio quality I'm looking for)."
